(7) These options were issued by the Board of Directors on January 21, 1997 upon recommendation of the Company's Compensation Committee. COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT The Company's Compensation Committee met on January 21, 1997 and made recommendations regarding compensation for the Company's executives. The Committee consists of Nancy Zivitz, Albert Milstein, Howard Silverman and Stephen Caswell. Mr. Caswell did not participate in discussion on his compensation. Mr. Silverman did not vote on the recommendations because he had just joined the Board. The recommendations were as follows: (1) Melvyn Reznick's annual salary for the twelve month period commencing - 6 - on December 1, 1996 and ending on December 1, 1997 should be increased to $250,000. Mr. Reznick should be granted a cash bonus of $40,000. He should also be granted options to purchase a certain number of shares of NTC common stock from the Company. The number of options will be calculated based on the fair market value of NTC's stock as of December 31, 1996, which is being determined pursuant to a Duff & Phelps appraisal expected to be completed in the near future. The number of options to purchase NTC stock will equal $135,000 divided by the fair market value of each share of NTC stock on December 31, 1996. The exercise price will equal the fair market value of NTC stock and the term of the options will be three years. The Company's Compensation Committee also recommended that Mr. Reznick's bonus for 1997 be $100,000, subject to the approval of the Company's Board of Directors, provided that the Board determines that Mr. Reznick satisfies the following criteria: The Company completes the spin-off of 10% of the common stock of NTC that it owns, the pending investigation of the Company by the Securities and Exchange Commission is settled and terminated, the Company's legal and regulatory issues are under control and, if possible, resolved, the Company expands its corporate communications activities so that its stock is presented properly to the investment community, the Company develops a new source of revenues and profits so that Incomnet, Inc. has a clear potential to cover its costs independent of NTC and RCI, and there is significant appreciation in the value of the Company's stock. (2) Stephen A. Caswell's annual salary for the twelve month period commencing on January 1, 1997 should be increased to $115,000. Mr. Caswell should be granted a cash bonus of $10,000. He should also granted options to purchase a certain number of shares of NTC common stock from the Company, calculated in the same manner as for Mr. Reznick, except that the dollar amount of options is $40,000 rather than $135,000. The Compensation Committee recommended and the Board of Directors approved a potential cash bonus of $35,000 for Mr. Caswell for 1997, provided that the Company achieves the same goals as are applicable to Mr. Reznick's potential 1997 bonus. The Compensation Committee also reviewed the settlement between the Company and Mr. Caswell in November 1995 and recommended that Mr. Caswell receive 40,000 stock options for services he performed for the Company, provided that those options be held as collateral against the loan that Mr. Caswell owes to the Company. The Committee also recommended that the Company assume all tax liabilities that Mr. Caswell would incur should the stock held as collateral not be sufficient to pay off the outstanding loan. [See "Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transaction - Note Receivable From Officer"]. In making the recommendations to the Board of Directors for Mr. Reznick's and Mr. Caswell's compensation, the Compensation Committee in its report noted extraordinary work performed by these executives under difficult conditions. Mr. Reznick performed an important and deciding role in financing and procuring the equity financing for Rapid Cast, Inc., one of the Company's subsidiaries. Mr. Reznick personally made and guaranteed bridge loans to Rapid Cast, Inc. as well as coordinating negotiations with J.P. Morgan and The Clipper Group to complete the institutional financing of Rapid Cast, Inc. Mr. Reznick is serving a key role on the Board of Directors, Audit Committee and Compensation Committee for Rapid Cast, Inc. He also works extensively with the research and development department of Rapid Cast, Inc. The Compensation Committee believes that the institutional financing of Rapid Cast, Inc. may not have been accomplished without the financial and managerial involvement of Mr. Reznick. The Compensation Committee noted that Mr. Reznick was also instrumental in resolving the issues with National Telephone & Communications, Inc., the Company's 100% owned subsidiary, including initiating the procedures necessary to accomplish the eventual spin-off of a portion of the Company's NTC shares. The current management incentive agreement with NTC provides Incomnet, Inc. with - 7 - a reliable source of working capital in 1997. The Compensation Committee also noted that Mr. Reznick served as an effective leader in resolving and making progress in resolving difficult legal and regulatory issues affecting the Company. The Compensation Committee made a comparative analysis of Mr. Reznick's annual salary in relation to the salaries of chief executive officers of public companies of approximately the same size, as well as the salaries of the chief executive officers of NTC and RCI, and determined that the recommendation for Mr. Reznick's compensation was fair and reasonable. The Compensation Committee also issued a report with respect to Mr. Caswell which noted his valuable work in providing support for the Company's litigation tasks, including his assistance in the pending legal action for the recovery of short swing profits for the Company in MORALES VS. INCOMNET, INC. AND SAM D. SCHWARTZ. Mr. Caswell performed critical tasks in connection with the Company raising $2,440,000 in the private placement of the Series A 2% Convertible Preferred Stock. Mr. Caswell was also instrumental in establishing an investor relations program for the Company including the hiring of Fi.Comm, Ltd., the Company's investor relations firm. The Compensation Committee made a comparative analysis of Mr. Caswell's annual salary in relation to the salaries of corporate secretaries of public companies of approximately the same size, and determined that the recommendation for Mr. Caswell's compensation was fair and reasonable. On January 21, 1997, the Board of Directors approved the recommendation of the Compensation Committee regarding compensation for Mr. Caswell and Mr. Reznick and for changes to the settlement with Mr. Caswell in November 1995. The Board also granted the stock options to officers, directors and consultants to the Company pursuant to Incomnet, Inc.'s 1996 Stock Option Plan. See the Stock Option Table in "Item 11. Executive Compensation - Holdings and Grants".
