EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS AND CHANGE-OF-CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS The Company is party to an employment agreement with each of Messrs. Rohrmann and Hartong that provides for an annual base salary and such annual bonus and incentive compensation as the Board of Directors may determine. The base salary is subject to review annually and currently is $450,000 in the case of Mr. Rohrmann and $260,000 in the case of Mr. Hartong. By its terms, each agreement will expire December 31, 1997, but the expiration date will be automatically extended to December 31, 1998 unless the Board of Directors elects, within sixty days after January 1, 1996, to terminate the agreement and to pay in a lump sum the balance of the base salary due thereunder through December 31, 1997. Each agreement further provides that in event of a change of control (as defined below), either party may terminate the executive's employment at any time, and upon such termination, the Company would be required to pay in a lump sum the balance of the base salary due through the unexpired term of the agreement (but not less than two times the annual base salary). A "change of control" is currently defined in each agreement as (i) the acquisition by any person, entity or group of shares of the Company's Common Stock representing more than 40% of the shares outstanding or (ii) the sale or other disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets.
