NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Frequency Electronics, Inc. will be held at the offices of the Company, 55 Charles Lindbergh Boulevard, Mitchel Field, New York, 11553, on the 7th day of October 2008, at 10:00 A.M., Eastern Daylight Time, for the following purposes:

ALL STOCKHOLDERS ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO ATTEND THE ANNUAL MEETING. YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT. WHETHER OR NOT YOU PLAN TO ATTEND, PLEASE MARK, SIGN AND DATE THE ENCLOSED PROXY AND RETURN IT PROMPTLY IN THE ENCLOSED ENVELOPE TO ENSURE THAT YOUR SHARES WILL BE REPRESENTED. YOU MAY NEVERTHELESS VOTE IN PERSON IF YOU ATTEND THE MEETING.

This Proxy Statement is being furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by and on behalf of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Frequency Electronics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the "Company"), for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held at the office of the Company, 55 Charles Lindbergh Boulevard, Mitchel Field, New York 11553, on the 7^th day of October 2008, at 10:00 A.M., Eastern Daylight Time, or any adjournment or adjournments thereof. A Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials on the Company’s website and a Proxy card were first mailed to shareholders on or about August 22, 2008. Only stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 22, 2008 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the meeting.

The Board may use the services of the Company's directors, officers and other regular employees to solicit proxies personally or by telephone and may request brokers, fiduciaries, custodians and nominees to send proxies, proxy statements and other material to their principals and reimburse them for their out-of-pocket expenses in so doing. The cost of solicitation of proxies, which it is estimated will not exceed $7,500, will be borne by the Company. Each proxy executed and returned by a stockholder may be revoked at any time thereafter by filing a later dated proxy or by appearing at the meeting and voting in person. Attendance at the meeting will not, in itself, constitute revocation of a proxy.

The Board has fixed the close of business on August 22, 2008, as the record date for determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the meeting. On August 22, 2008, the Company had outstanding 8,728,462 shares of common stock, $1.00 par value per share ("Common Stock") (excluding 435,477 treasury shares), each of which entitled the holder to one vote. No shares of preferred stock were outstanding as of such date. A majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, represented in person or by proxy, constitutes a quorum.

A stockholder who abstains from voting on any or all proposals will be included in the number of stockholders present at the meeting for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. Broker non-votes also will be counted for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

Brokers who do not receive a stockholder's instructions are entitled to vote on the election of directors and the ratification of the independent auditors. Broker non-votes and stockholder abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors.

At the annual meeting, stockholders will be asked to elect six (6) directors ("Director(s)") to the Board to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their respective successors are elected and qualified. Cumulative voting is not permitted. The accompanying Proxy will be voted for the election of all six of the members of the Board, each of whose principal occupations are set forth in the following table, if no direction to the contrary is given. In the event that any such nominee is unable or declines to serve, the Proxy may be voted for the election of another person in his place. The Board knows of no reason to anticipate that this will occur.

In addition, the chairman of the Audit Committee receives a stipend of $10,000. Company officers do not receive additional compensation for attendance at Board meetings or committee meetings. During fiscal year 2008, no directors were granted stock options or stock awards. Directors who are not officers do not participate in Company-sponsored pensions or deferred compensation programs.

(1)

The amounts in this column do not represent actual cash payments but represent the fair value of stock options awarded in prior years recognized by the Company as an expense in fiscal year 2008 for financial accounting purposes. The fair value of these awards and the amounts expensed in fiscal year 2008 were determined in accordance with FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, Share-Based Payment (FAS 123R), except the impact of estimated forfeitures related to service-based vesting conditions have been disregarded in accordance with SEC rules. The assumptions used in determining the grant date fair values of these awards are set forth in the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which are included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2008, as filed with the SEC.

(2)

Each non-officer Director previously received a stock option grant to acquire 30,000 shares of the Company’s stock and each such option award was outstanding at the end of fiscal year 2008. All Directors were fully vested in such options prior to fiscal year 2008, except for Mr. Schwartz who became fully vested in his stock option grant as of December 2007. The grant dates and exercise prices for these grants are listed in note (11) under the section Stock Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management beginning on page 7 of this Proxy Statement.

The Board of Directors, upon recommendation of the Audit Committee, has appointed the firm of Eisner LLP (“Eisner”), independent accountants, to be the Company's external auditors for the fiscal year commencing May 1, 2008, and recommends to stockholders that they vote for ratification of that appointment.

On August 1, 2008, the Audit Committee approved the dismissal of Holtz Rubenstein Reminick LLP (“HRR”) as the Company’s independent auditors. On August 4, 2008, the Company notified HRR of its dismissal as the Company’s independent auditors. On August 1, 2008, the Audit Committee engaged Eisner as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2009.

The reports of HRR on the Company's financial statements for the years ended April 30, 2008 and 2007 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

In connection with the audits of the Company's financial statements for the years ended April 30, 2008 and 2007 and the subsequent interim period through August 1, 2008, there have been no disagreements with HRR on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of HRR, would have caused HRR to make reference thereto in its reports on the Company's financial statements for such years.

During the Company’s two fiscal years ended April 30, 2008 and 2007 and the subsequent interim period through August 1, 2008, the Company has not consulted with Eisner regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's consolidated financial statements, or any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or reportable event (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

The following table presents the aggregate fees and expenses paid or accrued by the Company for professional services rendered by the Company’s former auditors, Holtz Rubenstein Reminick LLP in fiscal years 2008 and 2007. Other than as set forth below, no professional services were rendered or fees billed by Holtz Rubenstein Reminick LLP during fiscal years 2008 and 2007.

⁽¹⁾	Audit fees consist of professional services rendered for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements and the reviews of the quarterly financial statements and issuance of consents and assistance with and review of documents filed with the SEC.

⁽²⁾	Other audit-related services provided by Holtz Rubenstein Reminick LLP include the annual audit of the Company’s employee benefit plans as well as accounting consultations regarding significant transactions during the fiscal year.

Prior to engaging Holtz Rubenstein Reminick LLP to render the above services during fiscal years 2008 and 2007, and pursuant to its charter, the Audit Committee approved the engagement for each of the services and determined that the provision of such services by the external auditor was compatible with the maintenance of Holtz Rubenstein Reminick LLP’s independence in the conduct of its auditing services.

Before engagement of Eisner LLP as independent auditors for the fiscal year 2009, the independent auditors will submit a detailed description of services expected to be rendered during that year within each of four categories of services to the Audit Committee for approval.

Audit Services include audit work performed on the Company’s financial statements, as well as work that generally only the independent auditors can reasonably be expected to provide, including statutory audits, comfort letters, consents and assistance with and review of documents filed with the SEC.

Audit-Related Services are for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by the independent auditors, including due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions, employee benefit plan audits, and special procedures required to meet certain regulatory requirements and discussions surrounding the proper application of financial accounting and/or reporting standards.

Tax Services include all services, except those services specifically related to the audit of the financial statements, performed by the independent auditors’ tax personnel, including tax analysis; assisting with coordination of execution of tax related activities, primarily in the area of corporate development; supporting other tax related regulatory requirements; and tax compliance and reporting.

Prior to engagement, the Audit Committee pre-approves independent auditor services within each category. The fees are budgeted and the Audit Committee requires the independent auditors to report actual fees versus the budget periodically throughout the year by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage the independent auditors for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval categories. In those instances, the Audit Committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging the independent auditors.

The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member(s) to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the only business which the Board intends to present and knows that others will present at the meeting are hereinabove set forth. If any other matter or matters are properly brought before the meeting or any adjournments thereof, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying Proxy to vote the Proxy on such matters in accordance with their judgment.

In accordance with the rules promulgated by the SEC, any stockholder who wishes to submit a proposal for inclusion in the proxy material to be distributed by the Company in connection with the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must submit such proposal to the Company no later than April 24, 2009.

Assuming that the Company’s 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is held on schedule, the Company must receive notice of a stockholder’s intention to introduce a nomination or other item of business at that meeting by July 8, 2009. If the Company does not receive notice by that date, or if the Company meets certain other requirements of the SEC rules, the persons named as proxies in the proxy materials relating to that meeting will use their discretion in voting the proxies when these matters are raised at the meeting.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), requires the Company’s directors, officers and any person who is the beneficial owner of more than 10% of the Company’s equity securities (“10% stockholder”) to file reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of the Company’s Common Stock and other equity securities with the SEC. Directors, executive officers and 10% stockholders are required to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to it, the Company believes that during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008, the Company’s directors, officers and 10% stockholders complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them, with the following exception:

During the past fiscal year, four (4) meetings of the Board were held. Each of the Company’s directors attended, in person or telephonically, all of the meetings of the Board and of the meetings of committees of the Board of which such director was a member that were held during the past fiscal year.

In addition to attendance at Board meetings, the Board encourages, but does not require, all directors to attend annual meetings of the Company’s stockholders. All of the Company’s directors attended the Company’s 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The Audit Committee consists of the Company’s four independent directors, Messrs. Foley, Girsky, Shapiro and Schwartz. Each of these directors is independent in accordance with the independence standards for audit committee membership set forth in Section 10A(m)(3) of the Exchange Act and as defined in Rule 4350(d)(2)(A) of the listing standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market, upon which the Company’s Common Stock is listed and trades. The Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements. In addition, the Board has determined that both Mr. Shapiro, chairman of the Audit Committee, and Mr. Girsky satisfy the SEC’s criteria as “audit committee financial experts.”

The Audit Committee has procedures in place to receive, retain and handle complaints received regarding accounting, internal controls or auditing matters and to allow for the confidential and anonymous submission by anyone of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

The purpose of the Audit Committee is to oversee the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Company and the audits of the Company’s financial statements. The functions of the Audit Committee include, without limitation, (i) responsibility for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the Company’s independent auditors, (ii) review and pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services provided to the Company by the independent auditors, other than as may be allowed by applicable law, and (iii) review of the annual audited and quarterly consolidated financial statements. The Audit Committee Charter, which describes all of the Audit Committee’s responsibilities, is posted on the Company’s website at http://www.frequencyelectronics.com.

The Compensation Committee consists of the four independent directors, Messrs. Foley, Girsky, Shapiro and Schwartz. The Compensation Committee does not have a formal charter. The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining remuneration arrangements for the highest paid executives and oversees the Company's stock option, bonus and other incentive compensation plans. The Compensation Committee may not delegate these responsibilities. The Compensation Committee held four (4) meetings during fiscal year 2008.

The Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Martin Bloch, recommends to the Compensation Committee base salary, bonus payouts from the short-term incentive pool and long-term incentive grants for the Company’s officers (other than himself) and other eligible employees (see Executive Compensation section below). Mr. Bloch makes these recommendations to the Compensation Committee based on input from the Company’s Director of Human Resources using compensation data as described below, as well as qualitative judgments regarding individual performance. Mr. Bloch is not involved with any aspect of determining his own pay.

In order to assess whether the compensation program that the Company provides to its executive officers is competitive, its human resources department annually participates in a survey of electronics companies in the New York metropolitan area. This survey compares base salaries by job type as well as benefits offered by other companies in the electronics industry. The Compensation Committee has established salaries and benefits which are in the mid-range of those companies which participate in this survey. In addition, during fiscal year 2008, the Company engaged compensation consultants to review its existing programs and received recommendations for enhancements or improvements. As a result of such review, the Company made no major adjustments to the current compensation program for its officers.

Due to the relatively small size of its Board, the Company does not have a formal nominating or corporate governance committee. New director nominations, which are infrequent, and compliance with corporate governance rules, are reviewed and approved by the independent directors. By Board resolution, the Company has determined that if a new director is to be nominated, the independent directors of the Company (currently Messrs. Foley, Girsky, Shapiro and Schwartz) will conduct interviews of qualified candidates and, as appropriate, will recommend selected individuals to the Board. The independent directors consider director candidates based on criteria approved by the Board, including such individuals’ backgrounds, skills, expertise, accessibility and availability to serve constructively and effectively on the Board. The Company may retain a director search firm to assist it in identifying qualified director nominees.

The Company will consider recommendations for director candidates submitted in good faith by stockholders of the Company. A stockholder recommending an individual for consideration by the Board (and the independent directors) must provide (i) evidence in accordance with Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act of compliance with the stockholder eligibility requirements, (ii) the written consent of the candidate(s) for nomination as a director, (iii) a resume or other written statement of the qualifications of the candidate(s) for nomination as a director and (iv) all information regarding the candidate(s) and the stockholder that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement filed with the SEC if the candidate(s) were nominated for election to the Board, including, without limitation, name, age, business and residence address and principal occupation or employment during the past five years. Stockholders should send the required information to the Company at 55 Charles Lindbergh Boulevard, Mitchel Field, New York 11553, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

In order for a recommendation to be considered by the Company for the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Company’s Corporate Secretary must receive the recommendation no later than 5:00 p.m., local time, on April 24, 2009. Such recommendations must be sent via registered, certified or express mail (or other means that allows the stockholder to determine when the recommendation was received by the Company). The Company’s Corporate Secretary will send properly submitted stockholder recommendations to the independent directors for consideration at a future meeting. Individuals recommended by stockholders in accordance with these procedures will receive the same consideration as other individuals evaluated by the independent directors.

Stockholders and other interested parties may communicate directly with any Director, including any non-management member of the Board, by writing to the attention of such individual at the following address: Frequency Electronics, Inc., 55 Charles Lindbergh Boulevard, Mitchel Field, New York 11553, Attention: Corporate Secretary. The Company’s Secretary will distribute any stockholder communications received to the Director(s) to whom the letter is addressed or to all of the Directors if addressed to the entire Board.

The members of the Audit Committee have been appointed by the Board. The Audit Committee is comprised of four non-employee directors, each of whom satisfies the independence standards for audit committee membership set forth in Section 10A(m)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the independence requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market. The Audit Committee is governed by a charter that has been approved and adopted by the Board and which is reviewed and reassessed annually by the Audit Committee.

The following Audit Committee Report does not constitute soliciting material and shall not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other Company filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates this Audit Committee Report by reference therein.

The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process including the systems of internals controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed with management the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.

The Audit Committee reviewed with the independent auditors, who are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles, their judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of the Company’s accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the Audit Committee under generally accepted auditing standards. In addition, management and the independent auditors have represented to the Audit Committee that the financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

The Audit Committee has received from and discussed with the independent auditors their written disclosure and letter regarding their independence from the Company as required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1. The Audit Committee has also discussed with the independent auditors any matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61.

The Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their audit. The Audit Committee met with the independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examination, their evaluation of the Company’s internal controls, and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting. The Audit Committee held four meetings during fiscal year 2008.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board (and the Board has approved) that the audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to the Company's principal executive officer and two other most highly compensated executive officers (collectively, the "Named Executive Officers") based on total compensation for the last completed fiscal year, reduced by above market or preferential earnings on non-qualified deferred compensation.

The Company pays bonuses based on operating profits at each of its operating units or, in the case of Mr. Bloch, on consolidated pretax profits. In fiscal years 2008 and 2007, no Named Executive Officer was awarded a bonus based on the operating losses recorded at the FEI-NY and FEI-Zyfer segments. Mr. Bloch’s fiscal year 2008 bonus is based on the consolidated pretax profit of the Company. Mr. Mancini is awarded a bonus based on the operating profits generated by the Gillam-FEI segment.

(2)

The amounts in this column do not represent actual cash payments to the Named Executive Officers. Each value represents the proportionate amount of the total fair value of stock option and stock appreciation rights recognized by the Company as an expense in fiscal years 2008 and 2007 for financial accounting purposes. The fair value of these awards and the amounts expensed were determined in accordance with FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, Share-Based Payment (FAS 123R), except the impact of estimated forfeitures related to service-based vesting conditions have been disregarded in accordance with SEC rules. The awards for which expense is shown in this table include the awards described in the 2008 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table on page 16 of this Proxy Statement, as well as awards granted in prior fiscal years for which the Company continued to recognize expense in fiscal year 2008. The assumptions used in determining the grant date fair values of these awards are set forth in the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which are included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2008 as filed with the SEC.

Other than contributions of common stock to the accounts of participants in the Company’s profit sharing plan and trust under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Company did not make any awards of stock to any employees during fiscal years 2008 and 2007. The fair market value of contributions to the accounts of participants, including the Named Executive Officers, may not exceed $3,000 in a calendar year.

The amounts in this column do not represent actual cash payments to the Named Executive Officers. The Company has entered into certain deferred compensation agreements with key employees (including the Named Executive Officers) providing for the payment of benefits upon retirement or death or upon the termination of employment not for cause. The values in the table above reflect the change in the actuarially calculated deferred compensation liability for each of the Named Executive Officers for fiscal years 2008 and 2007. These non-cash amounts are included in the Company’s general and administrative expenses for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The Company maintains short-term incentive bonus programs for certain employees which are based on operating profits and certain other relevant criteria of the individual subsidiaries to which the employees are assigned. The Company’s employment agreement with its Chief Executive Officer includes a bonus formula based on consolidated pre-tax profits. These plans are designed to create incentives for superior performance and to allow the Company's executive officers to share in the success of the Company by rewarding the contributions of individual officers. Focused on short-term or annual business results, these plans enable the Company to award designated executives with annual cash bonuses based on their contributions to the profits of the Company.

As part of its comprehensive compensation program, the Company stresses long-term incentives through awards of shares of its Common Stock under the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) and through the grant of stock appreciation rights (“SARS”) or options to purchase common stock through various employee stock award plans. Grants and awards are aimed at attracting new personnel, recognizing and rewarding current executive officers for special individual accomplishments, and retaining high-performing officers and key employees by linking financial benefit to the performance of the Company (as reflected in the market price of the Company's Common Stock) and to continued employment with the Company. The number of shares granted to executive officers under the Company's ESOP is determined on a pro-rata basis. Grants of SARS, stock options and other equity awards are generally determined on an individual-by-individual basis. The factors considered are the individual's performance and potential for contributing to the Company’s future growth, the number of stock options and awards previously granted to the individual and the Company's financial and operational performance.

The Company does not maintain any compensation plans for its executive officers or directors or for any of its other employees which provide compensation intended to serve as incentive for performance to occur over a period longer than one fiscal year other than the ESOP and stock award plans discussed above. The fair values of awards under these plans are shown in the Summary Compensation Table above.

The Company has no tax-qualified defined benefit or actuarial retirement plans in effect. It has entered into certain deferred compensation agreements with key employees (including most officers) providing for the payment of benefits upon retirement or death or upon the termination of employment not for cause. The Company pays compensation benefits out of its working capital but has also purchased whole or term life insurance (of which it is the sole beneficiary) on the lives of certain of the participants to cover the optional lump sum obligations under the deferred compensation agreements upon the death of the participant. The annual premiums paid during fiscal year 2008 were less than the increase in cash surrender value of the whole life insurance policies.

The deferred compensation for participants in the program is reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee. The annual benefit may be increased based upon recent performance, length of service, economic conditions and other factors. The annual benefit to be provided to each of the Named Executive Officers upon his retirement is as follows:

Such benefits are payable for the remaining life of the individual with a minimum payment over ten years to either the employee or his beneficiaries. Benefits may be paid in a lump sum in the case of a participant’s death, disability or early termination of employment without cause. The change in actuarial value in nonqualified deferred compensation benefits under the deferred compensation agreements for each of the Named Executive Officers are presented in the Summary Compensation Table.

Included in the deferred compensation agreements of certain executive officers and certain key employees are provisions for supplemental separation benefits. Under the agreements, in the event of a change in control or ownership of part or all of the Company which gives rise to discharge of any officer or employee without cause, then such officer or employee will receive supplemental severance pay equal to one and one-half times the employee’s average base salary plus cash bonus from the previous five calendar years prior to the change of control if such discharge occurs in the first year after the change of control. If discharge occurs more than one year but less than two years after the change of control, then the employee will receive two-thirds of the five-year average of base salary and bonus.

Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Bloch’s base annual salary is $400,000. Beginning in fiscal year 2006, Mr. Bloch received additional compensation of up to $52,000 in the form of financial planning advice and Company-paid premiums for life insurance coverage, the beneficiaries of which are Mr. Bloch’s heirs. Mr. Bloch’s employment agreement provides a fixed annual bonus of 6% of the pre-tax profit of the Company with a cap on the pre-tax profit at $20,000,000, as well as separation benefits in the event of a change in control or ownership of part or all of the Company, continuation of disability, medical and life insurance, the cost of an annual physical examination and a new automobile every three years. Mr. Bloch was awarded stock options to purchase an aggregate of 268,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at the market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. The options are exercisable for a period of ten (10) years from the date of grant. (See Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End Table on page 16 and notes (6) and (10) under Stock Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management, above.)

Officers, including the Named Executive Officers, are eligible to participate in the Company’s profit sharing plan and trust under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. This plan permits eligible employees to defer a portion of their income through voluntary contributions to the plan. Under the provisions of the plan, the Company makes discretionary matching contributions of the Company’s Common Stock, the fair market value of which may not exceed $3,000 in a calendar year. All participants in the plan become fully vested in the Company contribution after six years of employment. All of the Named Executive Officers are fully vested in the shares attributable to their accounts. (See footnote (10) to the Stock Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management beginning on page 7.)

In addition, Mr. Bloch and Mr. Hechler are participants in the Company's Stock Bonus Plan and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") which replaced it. The ESOP began in 1990 and no additional shares of the Company’s common stock were allocated to participants after fiscal year 2000. (See footnote (10) to the Stock Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management beginning on page 7.)

Officers and certain key employees are provided with a leased automobile to use for both business and personal purposes. The operating costs of the vehicle are paid by the Company. The value of any personal use is included in the taxable income of each employee. Officers of the Company are also reimbursed for out-of-pocket medical expenses incurred by the officers and their families. Such reimbursement is also included in the officers’ taxable income.

The following table includes certain information with respect to the value of all unexercised options or stock appreciation rights (“SARS”) previously awarded to the Named Executive Officers at the end of the fiscal year, April 30, 2008. The Company has not made any stock awards.

Note: Stock options and SARS are generally exercisable cumulatively at 25% per year beginning one year after the date of grant. In the case of Mr. Bloch’s award of 40,000 SARS on March 17, 2008, the SAR is 50% exercisable one year after the grant date and fully exercisable two years after the grant date. The awards expire ten years after the date of grant. Grants are made at the market value of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant.
