Mr. Phillips is one of the co-founders of Matthews and, prior to this transaction, Mr. Phillips was the president of the Manufacturing Subsidiary as well as one of the directors of Matthews. The consideration paid by the Acquiror to Matthews for the Manufacturing Subsidiary was reached through arms-length negotiations. The Acquiror exchanged 1,916,450 shares of Matthews common stock and assumed $5 million of debt under Matthews' bank line of credit with The Chase Manhattan Bank, for all of the stock in the Manufacturing Subsidiary. Also, Matthews paid to Mr. Phillips $75,000 in consideration for his cancellation of options to purchase 274,000 shares of Matthews common stock, and Mr. Phillips and Matthews exchanged mutual general releases in respect of his employment agreement with the Manufacturing Subsidiary and Matthews, originally entered into on July 1, 1995.
