PROXY STATEMENT
General Information
The enclosed Proxy is solicited by the Company's Board of Directors. It
may be revoked in writing at any time by written notice delivered to the
President of the Company before it is voted or it may be withdrawn at the
meeting and voted in person. If not revoked or withdrawn, the shares
represented by the Proxy will be voted in the manner directed therein. If a
choice is not specified, the Proxy will be voted FOR the election of the Board
of Directors' nominees.
A majority of the vote of shareholders present in person or by proxy is
required for the election of the nominees to the Board of Directors. The
outstanding shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock represented at the
annual meeting will vote together as a single class. On April 17, 1996, the
record date for eligibility to vote, the Company had outstanding 733,154
shares of Common Stock, par value $.03 per share, and 131,500 shares of
Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share. Each share of Common Stock
outstanding is entitled to one vote and each share of Preferred Stock
outstanding is entitled to 1.11111 votes. Each share of Preferred Stock is
convertible into 1.11111 shares of the Common Stock. No other class of
securities is issued or outstanding.
A majority of the votes entitled to be cast on matters to be considered
at the meeting constitutes a quorum. If a share is represented for any purpose
at the meeting, it is deemed to be present for quorum purposes for the
remainder of the meeting or adjournments thereof. Abstentions and broker
non-votes (where a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner has not
received voting instructions from the beneficial owner with respect to a
particular matter and such nominee does not possess or choose to exercise
discretionary authority with respect thereto) are counted only for purposes
determining whether a quorum is present.
Votes cast by proxy or in person at the annual meeting will be tabulated
by the inspectors of election appointed by the Company for the meeting. The
number of shares represented at the meeting in person or by proxy will
determine whether or not a quorum is present. The inspectors of election will
treat abstentions as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes
of determining the presence of a quorum but as unvoted for purposes of
determining the approval of any matter submitted to the shareholders for a
vote. If a broker indicates on the proxy that it does not have discretionary
authority as to certain shares to vote on a particular matter, those shares
will not be considered as present and entitled to vote by the inspectors of
election with respect to that matter.
Board Committees
The Board of Directors is responsible for the overall affairs of the
Company and held six meetings during the year ended December 31, 1995. To
assist it in carrying out this responsibility, the Board has delegated certain

or his earlier resignation or termination for cause, then Mr. Tworek shall not

respect to any then existing client, customer or supplier of the Company.
Director Compensation
During 1995, non-employee directors received an annual fee of $3,000 plus
$500 per Board meeting or meeting of a Committee of the Board (fees for
Committee meetings held on the same day as Board meetings are $100). During
1995, no Executive Committee meeting fees were accrued or paid to Executive
Committee members. During 1995, Laurence C. Glazer, Isaac M. Pollak and
Millard H. Pryor, Jr., as the members of the Compensation Committee, were each
granted a non-qualified option under the Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan to
purchase 2,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.0625 per
share. Any director who is an employee of the Company receives no additional
compensation for serving as a director.
Stock Option Plan
In 1995, the Board of Directors adopted and the Company's shareholders
approved the 1995 Stock Option Plan (the "1995 Plan"), which (i) consolidated
the Company's 1991 Incentive Stock Option Plan and 1992 Non-Qualified Stock
Option Plan and (ii) provided for the automatic grant of stock options to the
members of the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. A
total of 433,333 shares of Common Stock have been authorized for issuance
under options granted and to be granted under the 1995 Plan at exercise prices
which will not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying
shares on the date of grant of the option. As of April 17, 1996, options to
purchase a total of 201,849 shares of Common Stock under the 1995 Plan, at
prices ranging from $2.53 to $13.11 per share, were outstanding, including the
6,000 shares referred to above which underlie options granted to members of
the Compensation Committee.
Stock Warrant Purchase Plan
During 1987, the Board of Directors adopted a Stock Warrant Purchase
Plan. The stock subject to this plan is authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock. The total number of shares which may be issued during the
existence of the Plan is not to exceed 16,666, and the aggregate number of
shares as to which warrants may be granted to any one individual during any
calendar year shall not exceed 1,666. The purchase price of the shares under
each warrant shall not be less than the fair market value of the shares at the
time the warrant is granted. Each warrant shall continue for periods of up to
seven years from the date of its grant.
In 1995, no warrants were issued to directors of the Company. As of
December 31, 1995, warrants to purchase 6,666 shares were outstanding, none of
which are held by present directors.
Other Information
For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company made payments totaling
$120,000 for business management consulting fees for services of its Chairman,

previously deferred amount of $10,000 was for services rendered prior to 1995.
7
For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company made payments totaling
$48,000 to Huguenot Associates Inc. for the consulting services of its
President, Robert M. Leopold. Mr. Leopold is a director of the Company. In
April 1996, the Company issued 4,000 shares of its Common Stock to Mr. Leopold
for services rendered by him to the Company in connection with the acquisition
of certain assets and liabilities of Merex, Inc. effected on October 11, 1995.

$26,022 to Richard M. Tworek, an officer of the Company, relating to a
deferred compensation liability of Merex, Inc. which the Company assumed in

Reports Under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Based solely on the Company's review of reports filed under Section 16(a)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), the Company
believes that there were no reports which were filed late, no transactions
which were not reported on a timely basis and no known failure to file
required forms except that Richard M. Tworek did not timely report on Form 3
the receipt of 75,000 shares of Common Stock on October 11, 1995, as part of
