(1) Represents the difference between $5.225, the closing price of the
Company's Common Stock on December 29, 1995 (the last trading day of
1995) as reported by the American Stock Exchange, and the exercise
price of the option, multiplied by the number of options for each
respective person named.

(2) 111,037 of the options reflected as exercisable by Mr. Fox and
49,350 of the options reflected as exercisable by Mr. Hanock are
options, having an exercise price of $2.86 per share, that
originally were not exercisable until June 2003. However, pursuant
to their original terms, the options would become exercisable at an
earlier date upon the Company's attaining certain levels of
earnings before taxes ("EBT") during 1994, 1995 and 1996. In
accordance with their original terms, (i) if the Company had EBT of
at least $650,000 for 1994, then one-third of each holder's options
would become exercisable, (ii) if the Company has EBT for 1995 of
at least $1,350,000, then an additional one-third of each holder's
options becomes exercisable; and if the Company's EBT for 1996
exceeds $2,000,000 then the final one-third of each holder's options
becomes exercisable. The options to become exercisable following a
particular benchmark year become exercisable on a pro-rata basis if
at least 50% of the earnings have been attained. The EBT benchmark
is cumulative through 1996 if the Company does not achieve any of
the prior years' goals. EBT for 1994 and 1995 was $309,000 and
$950,000, respectively. The Company, in 1995, authorized a certain
adjustment to the formula to determine the number of such options
that would become exercisable based upon 1994 financial results.
The adjustment took into account

the start-up costs of A Pix that were expended in their entirety
during 1994. As a result of this adjustment, approximately 71% of
the total number of options that could have become immediately
exercisable, pursuant to the options' original terms, if EBT for
1994 had been at least $650,000, did become so exercisable.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

The Company reimburses travel and other expenses incurred by its directors
in connection with attending Board of Director's meetings. Mr. Payson, who
became a director of the Company in June 1996, has been granted options to
purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock in connection with his serving as a
director. The options expire on June 5, 2006 and have an exercise price of
$4.00 per share, which was the market value of the Company's Common Stock on
that date. Options to purchase 16,666 shares are currently exercisable.
Options to purchase 16,667 shares will become exercisable on each of June 6,
1997 and June 6, 1998, subject to Mr. Payson's continuing to serve as a
director. Other than Mr. Payson, directors have not been compensated for
services they render in their capacity as directors.

proportionately reduced to the extent pre-tax profit is under the 5% threshold
but still exceeds 2.5% of the Company's sales. Mr. Fox will not receive any
such bonus if pre-tax profit is not at least 2.5% of the Company's sales for the
year. In no event will the Sales Bonus exceed $100,000 for either year. For
1996 and 1997, Mr. Fox is to receive a minimum annual bonus (whether or not

Mr. Hanock is also entitled to receive an

annual bonus equal to two percent of the Company's annual pre-tax profits in
excess of $650,000. For 1995 and 1996, the Company has agreed to pay Mr. Hanock
an additional bonus equal to 1% of the amount by which Unapix International
Division's ("UID") sales for such year exceeds $3,000,000 and the 1995 sales
amount, respectively. Additionally, for 1996 Mr. Hanock will receive a bonus
equal to one-half percent of all Company sales in the United States of products
sold or acquired as a result of the efforts of a UID employee. Under the terms
of Mr. Hanock's employment agreement, the Company will deposit to a Rabbi Trust
account ("Trust"), the beneficiary of which is Mr. Hanock, an annual payment
equivalent to 2% of the Company's first $500,000 in pre-tax profits, with such
amounts to be payable to Mr. Hanock (or his beneficiary) out of the Trust over a
five-year period commencing on the earlier of his death or upon his reaching the
age of 65 years.

Robert Baruc, an Executive Vice President of the Company and the President
and Chief Executive Officer of A Pix, is currently employed under an agreement
having a term expiring on December 31, 2000, which is automatically renewed for
successive four-year periods unless the Company or Mr. Baruc elects to
terminate. Under his Agreement, Mr. Baruc is entitled to receive a base salary
that is currently $195,000 per year, and which will increase to $220,000 and
$245,000 per year for 1997 and 1998, respectively, with a further increase in
1999 and 2000 based on the consumer price index Mr. Baruc is also entitled to
receive an annual bonus equal to 2.25% of the Company's pre-tax profits in
excess of $650,000 for 1996, 3% of pre-tax profits in excess of $650,000 for
1997, and 3% of pre-tax profits for each subsequent year of the agreement. For
each fiscal year during his employment term that A Pix's sales for such year
have increased by more than 25% of its sales for the immediately preceding year,
Mr. Baruc is entitled to receive a bonus equal to 1% of such excess, so long as
the Company's pre-tax profits are at least equal to 5% of its sales. If the
Company's pre-tax profit is less than 5% of its sales for the year, then Mr.
Baruc shall be entitled to a bonus that is proportionately reduced to the extent
pre-tax profit is under the 5% threshold but still exceeds 2.5% of the Company's
sales. Mr. Baruc will not receive any such bonus if the Company's pre-tax
profit is not at least 2.5% of its sales for the year. In no event will such
sales bonus exceed $100,000 with respect to any particular year. Pursuant to
his employment agreement, Mr. Baruc received 52,500 employee common stock
purchase options, exercisable at $2.86 per share, all of which have vested. In
addition, pursuant to his employment agreement Mr. Baruc was issued 9.5% of the
outstanding capital stock of A Pix.

OTHER EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS WITH EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

The Company also has entered into five-year employment agreements,
effective as of June 23, 1993, with Herbert Pearlman and David Lawi, who will be
required to devote such amount of time as they, in their discretion, deem
necessary for the performance of their duties. Mr. Pearlman's employment
agreement provides for an annual salary equal to five percent of the Company's
annual earnings before taxes ("EBT"). Mr. Pearlman will receive additional
salary equal to $25,000, $50,000, $75,000 and $100,000 after the Company's EBT
has exceeded $650,000, $1,350,000, $1,750,000 and $2,000,000 respectively. Mr.
Lawi's employment agreement provides for an annual salary equal to two and
one-half percent of EBT. Mr. Lawi

will receive additional salary equal to $12,500, $25,000, $37,500 and $50,000
after the Company's EBT has exceeded $650,000, $1,350,000 $1,750,000 and
$2,000,000 respectively. Each employment agreement provides for severance
payments of two years of annual salary (payable over two years) if the Contract
is not renewed at the end of its term.

In January 1994, the Company granted options to purchase the Company's
Preferred Stock A to Messrs. Pearlman and Lawi. These options are exercisable at
$3.00 per share of Preferred Stock A, vest immediately and expire five years
from the date of issuance. Mr. Pearlman was granted 35,000 of such options and
Mr. Lawi was granted 17,500 of such options. The Board also granted Messrs.
Pearlman and Lawi 35,000 and 17,500 Class B redeemable common stock purchase
warrants, respectively.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

In December 1993 and January 1994 the Company agreed to develop a joint
venture for the purpose of funding the acquisition by A Pix of the distribution
rights to independently produced films. The initial investors were Messrs.
Pearlman and Lawi and investors who are customers of Gray, Seifert & Co., Inc.
("Gray Seifert"), an investment advisory firm of which Mr. Bishop, a director of
the Company, is an Executive Vice President. Messrs. Pearlman and Lawi
invested $100,000 and $50,000, respectively, and customers of Gray Seifert
invested an aggregate of $200,000. The funds were invested under an arrangement
providing for: (i) the venture's having a term of three years; (ii) the
venture's recoupment of 110% of its investment in any one film from the first
dollars of gross receipts; (iii) the venture's receipt of up to 20% of the net
profits of each film in which it invests; (iv) roll-over of the venture's
receipts into other films; and (v) any shortfall of investment in a film to be
paid in shares of Common Stock of the Company issued at market or, if market is
less than $2.85 a share, at the lower of $2.85 or 125% of market. The initial
investments were fully utilized to acquire film distribution rights. Each
investor is entitled to receive 1,050 Class B Warrants for every $10,000
invested. Consequently, Messrs. Pearlman and Lawi have received 10,500 and
5,250 Class B Warrants, respectively, in connection with their investments.
Customers of Gray Seifert are entitled to receive an aggregate of 21,000 Class B
Warrants with respect to their investment.

From January through May 1994, the Company privately placed 735,820 shares
of Preferred Stock A for approximately $2,207,000, at a price of $3.00 per
share. Messrs. Pearlman, Lawi, Fox, Werblin, Hanock and Baruc (all of whom are
executive officers or directors of the Company), purchased 44,999, 16,666,
16,666, 16,666, 8,333 and 8,333 shares of Preferred Stock A, respectively, in
the private placement. Messrs. Fox, Hanock and Baruc acquired their shares by
delivering promissory notes providing for annual payments of principal, maturing
in five years and bearing interest at 9% per annum. The notes are secured by a
pledge of the purchased shares. Mr. Pearlman paid approximately $75,000 in cash
of the $134,997 purchase price for his shares and approximately $60,000 by
set-off against indebtedness of the Company owed to him with respect to prior
loans extended (during 1992 and 1993) to the Company. Messrs Lawi and Werblin
paid cash for their shares. In addition, investors who are

customers of Gray Seifert purchased an aggregate of approximately 100,000 shares
of Preferred Stock A in such private placement.

In August 1994, the Company obtained a $300,000 six month credit facility
from The Mezzanine Financial Fund, L.P. ("Mezzanine"), a limited partnership of
which Messrs. Pearlman and Lawi are officers, directors and principal
stockholders of the general partner. Walter M. Craig, Jr., a director of the
Company, is also an officer and director of the general partner of Mezzanine.
In addition, Messrs. Pearlman and Lawi are executive officers, directors and
principal stockholders of Helm Resources, Inc. ("Helm"), which presently owns
approximately 9% of the limited partnership interests of Mezzanine. Mr. Craig
is an officer and director of Helm. Outstanding amounts of principal under the
facility were charged interest at 2% per month. As consideration for
Mezzanine's entering into the facility, it received 1,050 Class B Warrants for
every $100,000, or part thereof, of the average loan balance outstanding during
each month. The Company issued 10,991 of such warrants to Mezzanine as a result
of amounts that were outstanding under the loan. The Company repaid the loan in
December 1994 and in connection therewith issued an additional 5,250 Class B
Warrants to Mezzanine, as a prepayment fee. The Company granted Mezzanine
certain registration rights with respect to the Class B Warrants it received and
the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise thereof.

From December 1994 through the second quarter of 1995 the Company received
total proceeds of $3,025,000 from customers of Gray Seifert in a private
placement of units of Variable Rate Senior Subordinated Notes ("Variable Rate
Notes") and Common Stock purchase warrants ("Private Placement Warrants") . The
purchase price of a unit was equal to the principal amount of the note included
therein. The Variable Rate Notes are due on December 31, 2001 and bear interest
at a rate of 10% per annum for the first three years and at 3% over the prime
rate for the remaining four years, provided, however, that the rate does not
fall below 8% or exceed 12% per annum. Mandatory repayment of 10% of the
original principal amount will commence at the end of the 4th year, followed by
15% of the original amount at the end of years 5 and 6. The Variable Rate Notes
are subordinated to indebtedness of the Company incurred to a bank or other
financial institution. For a limited period of time, after the third year of
the term, a noteholder will be permitted to convert up to 50% of his note into
shares of the Company's Common Stock at a price per share equal to the greater
of (i) the then average Market Price per share, as defined, over the last 60
trading days of 1997 or (ii) $3.00. The Company may redeem all or a portion of
the Variable Rate Notes at any time after December 31, 1997 at a premium over
the principal amount of the notes of 6%, which declines annually at the rate of
2% until January 1, 2001, after which the redemption price will be the principal
amount of the notes. For each 10,000 of Variable Notes acquired, each purchaser
received 1,355 Private Placement Warrants. Each such warrant entitles the
holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of
$3.70 per share and expires on December 31, 2001. The holders of the Private
Placement Warrants are entitled to certain registration rights with respect to
the shares issuable upon exercise thereof.

During 1994, and 1995 and to date in 1996, management of Helm has provided
various administrative, managerial, financial, legal and accounting services to
the Company. The

Company paid Helm $116,000 and $310,000 for such services rendered in 1994 and
1995, respectively, and has paid Helm $121,000 for such services through June
30, 1996.

In April 1995, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock purchase
plan, which permitted certain of the Company's employees, officers, directors
and consultants (and to a limited extent members of their immediate family) to
purchase units ("Units") in a private placement. Each Unit consisted of the
following: (i) 1.05 shares of Common Stock; (ii) 1.05 Common Stock purchase
warrants, each entitling the holder, at any time on or after August 1, 1996 (the
"Initial Exercise Date"), to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of
$19.05 per share and expiring on December 31, 2000 (a "$19.05 Warrant"); and
(iii) 1.05 Common Stock purchase warrants, each entitling the holder, at any
time on or after the Initial Exercise Date, to purchase one share of Common
Stock at a price of $28.57 per share and also expiring on December 31, 2000 (a
"$28.57 Warrant") (collectively, the $19.05 Warrants and the $28.57 Warrants are
referred to as the "Warrants"). The Warrants are redeemable by the Company (at
a price of $.024 per Warrant) at any time after the closing sales price of the
Common Stock (as reported by the principal securities exchange on which the
Common Stock is traded) has been at least 125% of the then effective exercise
price of the Warrants (currently $23.81 for the $19.05 Warrants and $35.71 for
the $28.57 Warrants) for a period of 20 consecutive business days during a
period that the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants have been
registered for sale under the Securities Act of 1933. The purchase price of
each Unit was $4.00. Purchasers of Units are entitled to certain registration
rights with respect to the securities comprising the Units.

Pursuant to the plan, participants were permitted to acquire Units by
paying 5% of the total price upon purchase, and delivering a promissory note (a
"Note") for the remaining 95% of the price. Each Note provides for the annual
payment of 5% of the total purchase price, commencing in 1996, with a balloon
payment of the remaining unpaid principal amount of the Note (i.e. 50% of the
total purchase price) payable on a specified date in 2005 (the "Maturity Date").
Interest accrues on each Note at a rate of 6% per annum, which is payable on the
last day of each year throughout the term of the Note, with all remaining
accrued and unpaid interest due on the Maturity Date. 95% of the Units that
each participant acquired under the plan were pledged to the Company as security
for such participant's Note. Such Units may be released to the participant as
the Note is paid under certain circumstances. Participants are permitted to
make payments under their Notes by delivering shares of Common Stock that they
own, including pledged shares, which are credited against amounts owed under
their Notes at the fair market value thereof.

Messrs. Pearlman, Fox, Lawi, Craig, Bishop, Baruc, Murphy, Low and Epps
purchased 73,333, 25,000, 11,667, 10,000, 25,000, 25,000, 12,500, 12,500 and
10,000 Units pursuant to such plan, respectively. Mr. Lawi's son and daughter
each purchased 12,500 Units.

In June 1995 the Company and A Pix entered into a credit facility (the
"Facility") with Atlantic Bank of New York (the "Bank") providing for revolving
loans totaling up to $2,500,000. Mr. Pearlman and Mezzanine are contingently
liable to pay outstanding amounts under the

Facility up to $300,000 in the aggregate. In consideration of its financial
accommodation, Mezzanine is entitled to receive 7,875 Class B Warrants for every
year that its accommodation is in effect and $500 per month during the term of
the accommodation and during which amounts are outstanding under the Facility.
The Company and A Pix are obligated to repay any sums that Mezzanine may be
required to pay to the Bank, and in order to secure this obligation, the Company
and A Pix have granted Mezzanine a security interest in substantially all of
their assets, which is subordinated to the Bank's security interest.

In September 1995 the Company extended an offer to its officers, directors
and certain consultants pursuant to which they could exercise any of the
Company's Class A Warrants then owned by them by borrowing the then exercise
price of $3.30 per share from the Company (such exercise price has not been
adjusted to reflect the Stock Dividend). Outstanding amounts of principal of
such loans bear interest at 6.2% per annum. Payment of principal and interest
is due on December 31, 2000, or if earlier, on the date the shares purchased
upon exercise (the "Underlying Shares") are sold. The loans are secured by a
security interest in the Underlying Shares. In the event of non-payment, the
Company's recourse is limited to exercising its rights with respect to such
security interest. Messrs. Pearlman, Fox and Lawi exercised, 102,780, 23,979
and 24,651 Class A Warrants, respectively, pursuant to the Company's offer.

In May 1996, the Company sold a Unit of the Company's securities to Martin
D. Payson's IRA in a private placement. The Unit consisted of the following: a
$250,000 principal amount 10% Convertible Subordinated Note of the Company due
June 30, 2003 (a "Note"), which is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a
price of $4.50 per share; and warrants ("Warrants") to purchase 25,000 shares of
Common Stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share, expiring on June 30, 2003.
Mr. Payson's IRA paid $237,500 for the Unit. Mr. Payson became a director of
the Company on June 25, 1996. In July 1996, the Company sold a total of four
Units to customers of Gray Seifert in the same private placement for an
aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000.

In June 1996, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the merger of A
Pix Entertainment, Inc. ("A Pix") into the Company. The Company owns 90.5% of
the capital stock of A Pix, the balance is held by Robert Baruc, the President
of A Pix and an Executive Vice President and Director of the Company. Pursuant
to the terms of the merger, Mr. Baruc will receive 200,000 shares of Common
Stock in exchange for his A Pix interest. The valuation is based upon the
recent growth and profitability of A Pix. The Company plans to complete the
merger as soon as practicable.

Also in June 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with Strategic
Growth, Inc. ("Strategic Growth"), an investor relations firm, pursuant to which
the Company retained Strategic Growth to provide investor relations services to
the Company. The term of the Agreement is for one year, commencing on June 4,
1996. In consideration of Strategic Growth's services the Company will pay
Strategic Growth a monthly retainer of $8,000. In addition the Company is
obligated to issue to Strategic Growth 300,000 common stock purchase options.
Each option entitles the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price
of $3.875,

which was the market price as of the date of the Agreement. The options will
have a term of five years. The Company is also obligated to issue an additional
one hundred thousand options to Strategic Growth which will expire within one
year unless all of the Company's Class B Warrants have been exercised prior to
that time. If all the Class B Warrants are exercised during the one year
period, the 100,000 options will have the same term as the other 300,000
options.

The Class B Warrants currently have an exercise price of $4.28 per share.
In order for the Company to redeem the Class B Warrants, the closing high bid
price of the Common Stock on each of 20 consecutive trading days (or such lesser
number of days with the consent of the underwriter from the Company's initial
public offering, but not less than 10 consecutive trading days) ending on the
third business day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given
must have been at least $5.71 per share.

The shares issuable upon exercise of the options issued to Strategic
Growth will have certain registration rights.

AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY'S 1993 STOCK OPTION PLAN

In 1993, the Company adopted the 1993 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). The
purpose of the Plan is to promote the interests of the Company and its
stockholders by helping the Company and its subsidiaries attract, retain,
motivate, and reward key employees and consultants, including officers and
directors of the Company.

Under the Plan, the Company may grant to eligible individuals stock options
to purchase the Company's Common Stock. Both non-qualified options
("Non-Qualified Options") and options intended to qualify as "Incentive" stock
options ("Qualified Options") under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code
(the "Code") may be granted under the Plan (collectively, Non-Qualified and
Qualified Options are referred to as "Options"). Officers, directors, and
employees of, and consultants to, the Company (or a subsidiary thereof, within
the meaning of Section 424 (f) of the Code), are eligible to receive Options
under the Plan. The Company has approximately 61 employees, as well as three
non-employee directors. The Company also currently has two consultants who
would be considered for grants under the Plan.

The Plan is administered by either the Company's Board of Directors or the
Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee"). Subject to
the provisions of the Plan, the Board or the Committee has the authority to
determine the individuals to whom Options are to be granted, the time or times
Options are to be granted, the number of shares to be covered by each Option and
the terms and provisions of each Option, including the vesting thereof. An
aggregate of 367,500 shares of Common Stock is currently reserved for issuance
under the Plan.

Under the Plan, the exercise price of Options shall be no less than the
fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. However, at no time
may the exercise price of a Qualified Option granted to an individual (a
"Principal Stockholder") owning more than 10% of the total combined voting power
of all classes of stock of the Company, or any of its subsidiaries or of a
parent, be less than 110% of the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock
on the date of grant. Options may be granted for terms not exceeding ten years
from the date of grant, except for Qualified Options which are granted to
Principal Stockholders which may be granted

for terms not exceeding five years from the date of grant. No Qualified Options
may be granted after April 23, 2003.

In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation,
recapitalization, dividend (other that a cash dividend), stock split, reverse
stock split, or other change in corporate structure affecting the Common Stock,
such substitution or adjustment will be made in the aggregate number of shares
reserved for issuance under the Plan and in the number and exercise price of
Shares subject to outstanding Options granted under the Plan as may be
determined to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of
rights.

The grant of an option, whether it is a Qualified Option or a Non-Qualified
Option, has no tax effect on the Company or on the optionee.

An optionee will not realize taxable compensation income as a result of the
exercise of a Qualified Option if the optionee holds the shares acquired until
at least one year after exercise or, if later, until two years after the date of
grant of the option. The amount by which the fair market value of the shares
exceeds the option price at the time of exercise generally is treated as an
adjustment to income for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. If an
optionee acquires stock through the exercise of a Qualified Option under the
Plan and subsequently sells the stock after holding the stock for the period
described above, the excess of the sale price of the stock over the option
exercise price will be taxed as capital gain. The gain will not be treated as
compensation income except when the holding period requirements discussed above
are not satisfied. A Qualified Option does not entitle the Company to an income
tax deduction except to the extent that an optionee realizes compensation
income.

When an optionee exercises a Non-Qualified Option, the optionee will
realize taxable compensation income at that time equal to the excess of the fair
market value of the stock on the date of exercise over the option price. An
optionee will generally have a basis in stock acquired through the exercise of a
Non-Qualified Option under the Plan equal to the fair market value of the stock
on the date of exercise. If the optionee subsequently sells the stock, the gain
which is the difference between the sale price and the basis will be taxed as
long-term or short-term capital gain, depending on the holding period of the
stock. Any compensation income realized by an optionee upon exercise of a
Non-Qualified Option will be allowable to the Company as a deduction at the time
it is realized by the optionee.

The Company has granted Options to purchase a total of 425,071 shares of
Common Stock under the Plan at exercise prices ranging from $2.86 per share to
$5.00 per share. Of such options: Options to purchase 52,500 shares at an
exercise price of $2.86 per share and expiring in August 2003 were granted to
Robert Baruc, a Director and an Executive Vice President of the Company; Options
to purchase 78,750 shares of Common Stock were granted to Robert Miller,
Executive Vice President of Sales of the North American Division, at an exercise
price of $4.29 per share and expiring on June 30, 2001; Options to purchase
50,000 shares of Common Stock were granted to Martin D. Payson, a Director of
the Company, at an exercise price of $4.00 per share and expiring on June 5,
2006; Options to purchase 40,425

shares of Common Stock were granted to Lise Romanoff, formerly Senior Vice
President of International Co-Production and Development for the Company's
Unapix International Division, 26,250 of which have an exercise price of $2.86
per share, 13,125 of which have an exercise price of $3.93 per share, 1,050 of
which have an exercise price of $5.00 per share, and all of which expire on
December 31, 1996; Options to purchase 43,050 shares of Common Stock were
granted to Steven Low, the Company's Chief Accounting Officer, of which 26,250
have an exercise price of $2.86 per share and expire on June 30, 1999 ("June
1999 Options"), Options to purchase 15,750 shares have an exercise price of
$2.86 per share and expire in 2003 and 2004, and 1,050 Options have an exercise
price of $5.00 per share and expire on December 31, 2000 ("December 2000
Options"); and Options to purchase a total of 160,346 shares of Common Stock
were granted to other employees of the Company, 97,809 of which were June 1999
Options, 15,750 of which were Options having an exercise price of $3.93 per
share and expiring on December 31, 1999 ("December 1999 Options"), 21,787 of
which were December 2000 Options, and 25,000 of which have an exercise price of
$4.00 per share and expire on June 30, 2001 (the "June 2001 Options").

The June 1999 Options are exercisable on January 1,1999 and the December
1999 Options are exercisable on July 1, 1999. All such options may be exercised
at an earlier date upon the attainment of certain earnings or sales goals. All
of the December 2000 Options are currently exercisable. The June 2001 Options
and Mr. Payson's Options become exercisable in three equal consecutive annual
increments, subject to the holder's continuing to provide services to the
Company.

Currently, all of Mr. Baruc's, Ms. Romanoff's and Mr. Miller's Options and
38,172 and 16,666 of Messrs. Low's and Payson's Options, respectively, are
exercisable. An additional 117,652 of the Options held by other employees are
also exercisable.

The grant of 57,571 of Mr. Miller's Options are subject to the approval of
the amendment to the Plan proposed hereby.

The closing sales price of the Company's Common Stock, as reported by the
American Stock Exchange, on August 2, 1996, was $4.125.

The Board of Directors has adopted an amendment to the Plan, subject to
stockholder approval at the meeting, increasing the number of shares authorized
to be issued upon exercise of Options granted under the Plan from 367,500 to
600,000 shares.

The approval of the proposal to amend the Plan requires the affirmative
vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock and Preferred
Stock A, voting together as a single class, present in person or represented by
proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS ADOPTION, APPROVAL AND RATIFICATION OF
THE AMENDMENT BY THE STOCKHOLDERS AT THE MEETING.

VOTING ON THE PROPOSALS

With regard to the election of directors, votes may be cast in favor or
withheld; votes that are withheld will be excluded entirely from the vote and
will have no effect. With respect to the proposal to amend the Plan,
abstentions may be specified and will be counted as present for purposes of the
item on which the abstention is noted. Accordingly, since the amendment to the
Plan requires the approval of a majority of the outstanding voting shares,
present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote,
abstentions will have the effect of a negative vote. Broker non-votes are
counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the
transaction of business, but will have no effect on the outcome of the election
of director or the proposal to amend the Plan.

PROPOSALS BY STOCKHOLDERS

Proposals that stockholders wish to include in the Company's proxy
statement and form of proxy for presentation at the next Annual Meeting of
Shareholders must be received by the Company at 200 Madison Avenue, New York,
New York 10016, Attention David S. Lawi, prior to April 12, 1997.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board of Directors has selected Richard A. Eisner & Company, LLP
("Richard Eisner & Co.") as independent auditors for the Company for the year
ending December 31, 1996. Richard Eisner & Co. have served as independent
auditors for the Company since 1994. The Company has been advised that
representatives of Richard Eisner & Co. will attend the Annual Meeting of
Stockholders, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do
so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

In November 1994, The Company changed its independent accounting firm, from
Shulman, Jacobson & Co., which audited the Company's financial statements for
the year ended December 31, 1993, to Richard Eisner & Co. The report of the
Company's former auditors on its financial statements for 1993 contained no
adverse opinions or disclaimers of opinions and was not qualified or modified as
to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. In addition, during 1993
there were no disagreements with the auditors on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or
procedure, which if not resolved to the satisfaction of the accountants would
have caused them to make reference in connection with their reports to the
subject matter of the disagreement.

MISCELLANEOUS

The Board of Directors knows of no other matters that are to be brought
before the meeting. However, if any other matters do come before the meeting,
the persons named on the enclosed form of proxy or their substitutes will vote
in accordance with their judgement on those matters.

The cost of solicitation of proxies, including expenses in connection with
preparing, assembling and mailing this proxy statement, will be borne by the
Company. The solicitation will be made by mail and may also be made by officers
or regular employees of the Company personally or by telephone or telegram. The
Company may reimburse brokers, custodians and nominees for their expenses in
sending proxies and proxy materials to beneficial owners.

person who is not an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary at the time of
grant.

4.2 GRANT OF OPTIONS TO OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS. The granting of
options to officers and directors of the Company shall be determined by a
committee of two or more directors, of which all members shall be disinterested
persons, as described in Section 2.1 hereof.

SECTION 5. STOCK OPTIONS.

5.1. GRANT AND EXERCISE. Stock Options granted under the Plan may be
of two types: (i) Incentive Stock Options and (ii) NonQualified Stock Options.
Any Stock Option granted under the Plan shall contain such terms, not
inconsistent with this Plan, or with respect to Incentive Stock Options, the
Code, as the Committee may from time to time approve. The Committee shall have
the authority to grant Incentive Stock Options, Non-Qualified Stock Options, or
both types of Stock Options and may be granted alone or in addition to other
awards granted under the Plan. To the extent that any Stock Option intended to
qualify as an Incentive Stock Option does not so qualify, it shall constitute a
separate Non-Qualified Stock Option. An Incentive Stock Option may only be
granted within the ten year period commencing from the Effective Date and may
only be exercised within ten years of the date of grant (or five years in the
case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an optionee ("10% Stockholder")
who, at the time of grant, owns Stock possessing more than 10% of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or a Parent or
Subsidiary.

5.2. TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Stock Options granted under the Plan shall
be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price per share of Stock
purchasable under a Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee at the
time of grant and may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock at
the time of grant; provided, however, that the exercise price of an Incentive
Stock Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock
at the time of grant (110%, in the case of 10% Holder).

(b) OPTION TERM. Subject to the limitations contained in
Section 5.1, the term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee.

(c) EXERCISABILITY. Stock Options shall be exercisable at such
time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by
the Committee. If the Committee provides, in its discretion, that any Stock
Option is exercisable only in installments, i.e., that it vests over time, the
Committee may waive such installment exercise provisions at any time at or after
the time of grant in whole or in part, based upon such factors as the Committee
shall determine.

(d) METHOD OF EXERCISE. Subject to whatever installment,
exercise and waiting period provisions are applicable in a particular case,
Stock Options may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the term
of the Option, by giving written

notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares of Stock to be
purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase
price, which shall be in cash or, unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, in
shares of Stock or, partly in cash and partly in such Stock, or such other means
which the Committee determines are consistent with the Plan's purpose and
applicable law. Cash payments shall be made by wire transfer, certified or bank
check or personal check, in each case payable to the order of the Company;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to deliver
certificates for shares of Stock with respect to which an Option is exercised
until the Company has confirmed the receipt of good and available funds in
payment of the purchase price thereof. Payments in the form of Stock shall be
valued at the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date prior to the
date of exercise. Such payments shall be made by delivery of stock certificates
in negotiable form which are effective to transfer good and valid title thereto
to the Company, free of any liens or encumbrances. A Holder shall have none of
the rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares subject to the Option
until such shares shall be transferred to the Holder upon the exercise of the
Option.

(e) TRANSFERABILITY. No Stock Option shall be transferable by
the Holder, otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution,
and all Stock Options shall be exercisable, during the Holder's lifetime, only
by the Holder; provided however that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the Committee may in its sole discretion allow a Non-Incentive
Stock Option to be transferred to a Family Group Member.

(f) TERMINATION BY REASON OF DEATH. If a Holder's employment by
the Company or a Subsidiary terminates by reason of death, any Stock Option held
by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of
grant and set forth in the Agreement, shall be fully vested and may thereafter
be exercised by the legal representative of the estate or by the legatee of the
Holder under the will of the Holder, for a period of one year (or such other
greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify at grant) from the date of
such death or until the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Option,
whichever period is the shorter.

(g) TERMINATION BY REASON OF DISABILITY. If a Holder's
employment by the Company or any Subsidiary terminates by reason of Disability,
any Stock Option held by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the
Committee at the time of grant and set forth in the Agreement, shall be fully
vested and may thereafter be exercised by the Holder for a period of one year
(or such other lesser period as the Committee may specify at the time of grant)
from the date of such termination of employment or until the expiration of the
stated term of such Stock Option, whichever period is the shorter.

(h) OTHER TERMINATION. Subject to the provisions of Section 8
below and unless otherwise determined by the Committee

at the time of grant and set forth in the Agreement, if a Holder is an employee
of the Company or a Subsidiary at the time of grant and if such are Holder's
employment by the Company or any Subsidiary terminates for any reason other than
death or Disability, the Stock Option shall thereupon automatically terminate,
except that if the Holder's employment is terminated by the Company or a
Subsidiary without cause or due to Normal Retirement, then the portion of such
Stock Option which has vested on the date of the termination of employment may
be exercised for the lesser of three months after termination of employment or
the balance of such Stock Option's term.

(i) ADDITIONAL INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION LIMITATION. In the case
of an Incentive Stock Option, the amount of aggregate Fair Market Value of Stock
(determined at the time of grant of the Option) with respect to which Incentive
Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Holder during any calendar
year (under all such plans of the Company and its Parent and Subsidiary) shall
not exceed $100,000.

(j) BUYOUT AND SETTLEMENT PROVISIONS. The Committee may at any
time offer to buy out a Stock Option previously granted, based upon such terms
and conditions as the Committee shall establish and communicate to the Holder at
the time that such offer is made.

(k) STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT. Each grant of a Stock Option shall
be confirmed by, and shall be subject to the terms of, the Agreement executed by
the Company and the Holder.

(l) HOLDING PERIOD. All shares of Stock received by a Holder
upon exercise of an Option granted hereunder shall be non-transferable by the
Holder until at least six months has elapsed from the date of the granting of
such Option.

SECTION 6. AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION.

The Board (but not the Committee) may at any time amend, alter,
suspend or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration, suspension or
discontinuance shall be made which would impair the rights of a Holder under any
Agreement theretofore entered into hereunder, without his consent.

SECTION 7. TERM OF PLAN.

7.1 EFFECTIVE DATE. The Plan shall be effective as of April 23,
1993 ("Effective Date"), subject to the approval of the Plan by the stockholders
of the Company within one year after the Effective Date. Any awards granted
under the Plan prior to such approval shall be effective when made (unless
otherwise specified by the Committee at the time of grant), but shall be
conditioned upon, and subject to, such approval of the Plan by the Company's
stockholders. If the Plan shall not be so approved, all awards granted
thereunder shall be of no effect and any Stock received by

a Holder upon the exercise of an award shall be deemed forfeited and the Holder
shall return the Stock to the Company.

7.2 TERMINATION DATE. Unless terminated by the Board, this Plan
shall continue to remain effective until such time no further awards may be

SECTION 8. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

8.1 WRITTEN AGREEMENTS. Each award granted under the Plan shall be
confirmed by, and shall be subject to the terms of the Agreement executed by the
Company and the Holder. The Committee may terminate any award made under the
Plan if the Agreement relating thereto is not executed and returned to the
Company within 60 days after the Agreement has been delivered to the Holder for
his or her execution.

8.2 UNFUNDED STATUS OF PLAN. The Plan is intended to constitute an
"unfunded" plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any
payments not yet made to a Holder by the Company, nothing contained herein shall
give any such Holder any rights that are greater than those of a general
creditor of the Company.

8.3 EMPLOYEES.

(a) ENGAGING IN COMPETITION WITH THE COMPANY. In the event an
employee Holder terminates his employment with the Company or a Subsidiary for
any reason whatsoever, and within eighteen (18) months after the date thereof
accepts employment with any competitor of, or otherwise engages in competition
with, the Company, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may require such
Holder to return to the Company the economic value of any award which was
realized or obtained (measured at the date of exercise) by such Holder at any
time during the period beginning on that date which is six months prior to the
date of such Holder's termination of employment with the Company.

(b) TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. The Committee may, in the event an
employee is terminated for cause, annul any award granted under this Plan to
such employee and in such event the Committee, in its sole discretion, may
require such Holder to return to the Company the economic value of any award
which was realized or obtained (measured at the date of exercise) by such Holder
at any time during the period beginning on that date which is six months prior
to the date of such Holder's termination of employment with the Company.

(c) NO RIGHT OF EMPLOYMENT. Nothing contained in the Plan or in
any award hereunder shall be deemed to confer upon any employee of the Company
or any Subsidiary any right to continued employment with the Company or any
Subsidiary, nor shall

it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to
terminate the employment of any of its employees at any time.

8.4 INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS. The Committee may require each
person acquiring shares of Stock pursuant to a Stock Option or other award under
the Plan to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that the Holder
is acquiring the shares for investment without a view to distribution thereof.

8.5 ADDITIONAL INCENTIVE ARRANGEMENTS. Nothing contained in the Plan
shall prevent the Board from adopting such other or additional incentive
arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the
granting of stock options and the awarding of stock and cash otherwise than
under the Plan; and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or
applicable only in specific cases.

8.6 WITHHOLDING TAXES. Not later than the date as of which an amount
first becomes includible in the gross income of the Holder for Federal income
tax purposes with respect to any option or other award under the Plan, the
Holder shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the
Committee regarding the payment of, any Federal, state and local taxes of any
kind required by law to be withheld or paid with respect to such amount. If
permitted by the Committee, tax withholding or payment obligations may be
settled with Common Stock, including Common Stock that is part of the award that
gives rise to the withholding requirement. The obligations of the Company under
the Plan shall be conditional upon such payment or arrangements and the Company
or the Holder's employer (if not the Company) shall, to the extent permitted by
law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind
otherwise due to the Holder from the Company or any Subsidiary.

8.7 GOVERNING LAW. The Plan and all awards made and actions taken
thereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of Delaware (without regard to choice of law provisions).

8.8 OTHER BENEFIT PLANS. Any award granted under the Plan shall not
be deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits under any retirement
plan of the Company or any Subsidiary and shall not affect any benefits under
any other benefit plan now or subsequently in effect under which the
availability or amount of benefits is related to the level of compensation
(unless required by specific reference in any such other plan to awards under
this Plan).

8.9 NON-TRANSFERABILITY. Except as otherwise expressly provided in
the Plan, no right or benefit under the Plan may be alienated, sold, assigned,
hypothecated, pledged, exchanged, transferred, encumbranced or charged, and any
attempt to alienate, sell, assign, hypothecate, pledge, exchange, transfer,
encumber or charge the same shall be void.

8.10 APPLICABLE LAWS. The obligations of the Company with respect to
all Stock Options and awards under the Plan shall be subject to (i) all
applicable laws, rules and regulations and such approvals by any governmental
agencies as may be required, including, without limitation, the effectiveness of
a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and (ii)
the rules and regulations of any securities exchange on which the Stock may be
listed.

8.11 CONFLICTS. If any of the terms or provisions of the Plan
conflict with the requirements of with respect to Incentive Stock Options,
Section 422A of the Code, then such terms or provisions shall be deemed
inoperative to the extent they so conflict with the requirements of said Section
422A of the Code. Additionally, if this Plan does not contain any provision
required to be included herein under Section 422A of the Code, such provision
shall be deemed to be incorporated herein with the same force and effect as if
such provision had been set out at length herein.

8.12 NON-REGISTERED STOCK. The shares of Stock being distributed
under this Plan have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "1933 Act"), or any applicable state or foreign securities laws and
the Company has no obligation to any Holder to register the Stock or to assist
the Holder in obtaining an exemption from the various registration requirements,
or to list the Stock on a national securities exchange.
