Please note, however, that if a shareholder's shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, and that shareholder wishes to vote at the Meeting, the shareholder must bring to the Meeting a letter from the broker, bank or other nominee confirming that shareholder's beneficial ownership of the shares.

Following the original mailing of the proxies and other soliciting materials, the Company will request brokers, custodians, nominees and other record holders to forward copies of the proxy and other soliciting materials to persons for whom they hold shares of Common Stock and to request authority for the exercise of proxies. In such cases, the Company, upon the request of the record holders, will reimburse such holders for their reasonable expenses. -1- PROPOSAL NO. 1 - ELECTION OF DIRECTORS At the Meeting, shareholders will elect directors to hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until their respective successors have been elected and qualified or until such directors' earlier resignation or removal.

Mr. St. Charles and Dr. Gupta did not participate in any discussions regarding recommended salary adjustments for themselves. The Compensation Committee is responsible for setting and administering the policies governing annual compensation of the executive officers and the Chairman of the Board of the Company. These policies are based upon the philosophy that the Company's long-term success in its marketplace is best achieved through recruitment and retention of the best people in the industry. The Compensation Committee applies this philosophy in determining compensation for Company executive officers in three areas: salary, bonuses and stock options. The Compensation Committee believes that the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chairman of the Board and the Company's other executive officers should be greatly influenced by the Company's performance. Consistent with this philosophy, a designated portion of the compensation of each executive is contingent upon corporate performance and adjusted where appropriate, based on an executive's performance against personal performance objectives. Each executive officer's performance for the last fiscal year and objectives for the subsequent year are reviewed, together with the executive's responsibility level and the Company's fiscal performance versus objectives and potential performance targets for the subsequent year. The Compensation Committee administers the Company's equity plans, including the 1988 Stock Option Plan and the 1990 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. SALARY The Company strives to offer salaries to its executive officers that are competitive in its industry for similar positions requiring similar qualifications. In determining executive officers salaries, the Compensation Committee considers information provided by the Human Resources Director whose recommendations are based upon salary surveys specific to the Company's industry, size and geographic location. Such surveys are prepared by an independent organization using information provided from over 300 companies. These surveys summarize information from companies that closely match the Company in terms of such things as product or industry, geography and revenue levels. To this end, the Compensation Committee attempted to compare the compensation of the Company's executive officers with the compensation practices of the survey companies to determine base salary, target bonuses and target total cash compensation. In preparing the performance graph for this Proxy Statement, the Company used the Hambrecht & Quist Technology Index as its published line of business index. The compensation practices of most of the companies in the Hambrecht & Quist Technology Index were not reviewed in detail by the Company when the Compensation Committee reviewed the compensation information discussed above because such companies were determined not to be directly competitive with the Company for executive talent. In addition to their base salaries, the Company's executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, are each eligible to receive a cash bonus and are entitled to participate in the 1988 Stock Option Plan. The bonus for the Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board and for other executives is based primarily on Company performance. The foregoing information was presented to the Compensation Committee in March 1995. The Compensation Committee reviewed the recommendations and performance and market data outlined above and established a base salary level to be effective March 1, 1995 for each executive officer, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. In addition to considering the results of the performance evaluations and information concerning competitive salaries, the Compensation Committee and Chief Executive Officer place primary weight on the financial condition of the Company in considering salary adjustments. BONUSES The Company seeks to provide additional incentives and rewards to executives who make contributions of outstanding value to the Company. For this reason, the Compensation Committee administers a bonus plan, which can comprise a substantial portion of the total compensation of executive officers when earned and paid. -8- The Compensation Committee determines annually the total amount of cash bonuses available for executive officers. Awards under the plan are contingent upon the performance of the Company as a whole, based upon the Company's attaining certain revenue and operating profit goals set by the Board annually in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer. The target amounts of bonuses available to each executive officer are set annually by the Compensation Committee in its discretion with regard to the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board and by the Chief Executive Officer, subject to review and approval by the Compensation Committee, with regard to executive officers other than himself. In all cases, the relative target amounts for individual officers are based upon the total dollars available for bonuses, and historical and expected future contributions by the individual executive officer. In fiscal 1995, the objectives used by the Company as the basis for incentive compensation were based primarily on Company performance. Executive officers earn a percentage of the target amounts under the bonus plan relating to the achievement of the performance goals under the plan by the Company, as determined by the Committee annually in its discretion. Awards are weighted so that proportionately higher awards are received when the Company's performance exceeds targets and proportionately smaller or no awards are made when the Company does not meet targets. STOCK OPTIONS The Compensation Committee believes that employee equity ownership provides significant additional motivation to executive officers to maximize value for the Company's shareholders, and therefore recommends to the Board periodic grants of stock options under the Company's 1988 Stock Option Plan. Stock options are granted by the Compensation Committee in its discretion at the prevailing market price and will have value only if the Company's stock price increases over the exercise price. Therefore, the Compensation Committee believes that stock options serve to align the interest of executive officers closely with other shareholders because of the direct benefit executive officers receive through improved stock performance. The Compensation Committee makes option grants in its discretion after consideration of recommendations from Mr. St. Charles and other members of the Board. Recommendations for options are based upon relative positions and responsibilities of executive officers, historical and expected contributions of each executive officer to the Company, and previous option grants to such executive officers. Options are recommended with a goal of providing equity compensation for executive officers competitive with that of executive officers of similar rank in other companies in the Company's industry, geographic location and size. Stock options typically have been granted to executive officers when the executive first joins the Company, in connection with a significant change in responsibilities, and, occasionally, to achieve equity within a peer group. The Committee in its discretion may, however, grant additional stock options to executives for other reasons. The number of shares subject to each stock option granted is based on anticipated future contribution and ability to impact corporate results, past performance or consistency within the executive's peer group. In fiscal 1995, the Committee considered these factors, as well as the number of options held by such executive officers as of the date of grant that remained unvested. Option grants for fiscal 1995 are set forth in the table above entitled "Option Grants in Fiscal 1995". FISCAL 1995 CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION In March 1994, the Committee established a base salary for Mr. St. Charles for fiscal 1995. This base salary represented an increase over Mr. St. Charles' fiscal 1994 base salary. The Compensation Committee also established a target bonus for Mr. St. Charles under the fiscal 1995 bonus plan. The fiscal 1995 base salary level and target bonus were based upon a number of factors, including (a) the Compensation Committee's assessment of the fiscal 1994 performance of the Company and Mr. St. Charles, (b) fiscal 1995 Company performance objectives and individual performance objectives and responsibilities for Mr. St. Charles established in March 1994, and (c) the market compensation data for companies in the same industry and geographic location and similar in size to the Company in terms of revenue. These objectives included satisfactorily managing the Company's overall corporate business plan, such as meeting the Company's profitability projections and the Company's sales targets, and strengthening the Company's financial position. In fiscal 1995, the Compensation Committee granted Mr. St. Charles a new stock option to purchase 25,000 shares. The number of shares granted was based on Mr. St. Charles' position, fiscal 1995 performance and expected performance in fiscal 1996 and beyond. The Compensation Committee has concluded that Mr. St. Charles' performance in fiscal 1995 warrants the compensation for fiscal 1995 as reflected in the Summary Compensation Table. -9- COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 162(M) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986. The Company intends to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 for 1995. The Company does not expect cash compensation for 1995 to be in excess of $1,000,000 or consequently affected by the requirements of Section 162(m). COMPENSATION COMMITTEE John C.

The graph below compares the cumulative total shareholder return of the Common Stock of the Company from March 6, 1990, the date of the Company's initial public offering, to February 28, 1995. Federal regulation requires that each company's proxy statement relating to the annual election of directors include a line graph comparing cumulative total shareholder return on the Company's Common Stock with the cumulative total return of (1) a broad equity market stock index and (2) a published industry or line-of-business index (assuming the investment of $100 in the Company's Common Stock and in each of the other indices on March 6, 1990, and reinvestment of all dividends). The Board has approved the use of the Nasdaq Composite Index and the Hambrecht & Quist Technology Index for these requirements. The performance comparison appears below. The Board and the Compensation Committee recognize that the market price of the Company's Common Stock is influenced by many factors, only one of which is Company performance. The Common Stock price performance shown on the graph is not necessarily indicative of future price performance.
