Election of Directors
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company currently has eight directors serving in three classes,
consisting of two classes of three members each and one class of two
members. The term of office of one class will expire each year. Members of
each class are elected for terms of three years, except in the case of a
vacancy in any class, in which case the vacancy may be filled by the Board
of Directors for the balance of the term of the class in which the vacancy
exists. Charles W. Grigg was appointed a director in Class I, effective as
of December 1, 1993, to replace John R. Selby, who resigned upon
retirement, effective November 30, 1993.

The terms of office of the two Class II directors expire this year.
Accordingly, shareholders are being asked to elect two Class II directors
who will hold office until the 1997 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and
until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Unless you indicate
otherwise, your proxy will be voted in favor of the election of each of
the nominees named below for a three-year term. Should any nominee become
unavailable for election for any unforeseen reason, the Board of Directors
or the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors will determine how
the proxies will be voted. The two nominees receiving the highest number
of votes cast at the meeting will become directors at the conclusion of
the vote tabulation.

Listed below are the names of, and certain other information
respecting, the two nominees for election as Class II directors, and the
other five directors who will be continuing in office following the
meeting. F. James Skinner and Allen C. Menke are retiring from the Board
of Directors, effective on the date of the Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
Mr. Sharpe has been nominated by the Board of Directors to fill the
vacancy in Class II created by Mr. Skinner's retirement. The position in
Class I of the Board held by Allen C. Menke will be vacant as of May 23,
1994, due to his retirement. The Board has not yet identified a
replacement to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Menke's retirement.
Accordingly, the Board has not named a nominee to fill such vacancy, nor
will proxies be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of
nominees named.

Board Meetings, Committees and Compensation of Directors
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During 1993, there were nine meetings of the Board of Directors of the
Company. Throughout 1993 there was an Executive Compensation and Stock
Option Committee, a Directors Committee and an Audit Committee.

The Executive Compensation and Stock Option Committee, composed of
Messrs. Miller (Chairman), Lubin, Menke, Ruttenberg and Skinner, held two
meetings in 1993. Its function is to fix the salaries and other
compensation of all officers and key executives of the Company other than
the Chief Executive Officer and the President of the Company (whose
compensation is fixed by the Board of Directors), to evaluate the
Company's executive compensation programs to insure that they remain
effective in retaining and attracting managerial talent, and to administer
certain of the Company's executive incentive compensation and stock option
plans, including the granting of awards as provided in those plans.

The Directors Committee of the Board of Directors, composed of Messrs.
Skinner (Chairman), Lubin, Menke, Ruttenberg and Selby (until November 30,
1993, and thereafter, Mr. Grigg), held one meeting in 1993. Its functions
are to nominate candidates for election to the Board of Directors,
recommend nominees for service on its standing committees, review programs
for senior management succession, make recommendations to the Board on
matters of directors' compensation, benefits, retirement and tenure
policy, and consider nominees for director recommended by shareholders.

The Directors Committee will consider shareholder nominations under
the Company's By-laws as approved by shareholders. To be considered,
notice of a nomination must be received not less than 60 days before the
date of the relevant Annual Shareholders' Meeting. Such notice must
include (i) the name and address of the nominating shareholder, (ii) a
representation that the shareholder is entitled to vote at such meeting
and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting, (iii) the
name, age, business and residence addresses and principal occupation of
such proposed nominee, (iv) a description of any and all arrangements or
understandings between the shareholder and each proposed nominee, (v) such
other information as would be required by the Securities and Exchange
Commission to be included in a proxy statement soliciting proxies for the
election of the proposed nominee, and (vi) the signed consent of each such
individual to serve as director if elected. The Board may require any
proposed nominee to furnish other information reasonably required to
determine the proposed nominee's eligibility and qualifications to serve
as a director. Under Pennsylvania law, to be eligible, a nominee must be
an individual 18 years of age or older. Factors relevant to a nominee's
qualifications would include his or her experience or lack thereof in
managing business enterprises, service on other boards of directors,
potential or actual conflicts of interest, expertise in a field related to
the Company's business, criminal record and other similar information. If
the Board (after affording the shareholder a reasonable opportunity to
cure any deficiency in the original notice) determines that an individual
was not proposed in accordance with the By-laws, then such individual
would not be eligible for nomination and election as a director. If a
nominee is determined to have been properly proposed by a shareholder, and
the Directors Committee determines not to nominate the person, the
shareholder proposing such person may nominate the candidate at the

meeting. A copy of the Company's By-laws specifying the requirements for
nominations for director will be furnished to any shareholder without
charge upon written request to the Secretary of the Company.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, composed of Messrs.
Menke (Chairman), Hallowell, Lubin, Miller and Skinner, held two meetings
in 1993. Its functions include meeting periodically with the Company's
management, internal auditors and independent certified public accountants
to review with each whether they are properly discharging their respective
responsibilities. In addition, this committee is responsible for
recommendations to the Board of Directors in the selection and retention
of the Company's independent certified public accountants, for
establishing the scope of their accounting services and for approval of
related fees.

In 1993, all of the directors attended more than 75% of the aggregate
of the meetings of the Board and the committees of the Board on which they
served.

The following table shows the amount of the total annual pension which
a Named Officer (with the exception of Mr. McGrath) would receive at age
65 for the years-of-service indicated under (i) the Company's Retirement
Income Plan (RIP), a qualified plan in which the benefit is based upon the
highest average pensionable earnings for any five-year period preceding
retirement and years-of-service, and is integrated with up to 50% of
primary social security benefits; (ii) the Benefit Equalization Plan
(BEP), a non-qualified unfunded plan which makes up retirement benefit
reductions under RIP due to ceilings established by the Internal Revenue
Code and/or reductions due to participation in the Executive Deferred
Compensation Plan; and (iii) the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan
(SERP), a non-qualified unfunded plan in which an enhanced retirement
benefit is accrued based upon highest average pensionable earnings and
years-of-service.

Compensation of Directors
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each director who is not an employee of the Company receives an annual
retainer of $17,000 plus a fee of $1,000 for each meeting of the Board of
Directors or one of its committees attended by him. Each director who is
an employee of the Company receives a fee of $1,000 for each meeting of
the Board of Directors attended by him. A director who is not a
participant in any of the Company's qualified retirement plans and who

16
retires at or after age 70 with 5 or more years of service will receive
annually during his lifetime an amount equal to the annual retainer in
effect as of the date of his retirement. Any such director who retires at
or after age 65 with 10 or more years of service will receive annually a
similar amount during his lifetime, or a pro rata amount if the director's
service is for less than 10 years. Any non-employee director may elect to
receive discounted price stock options in lieu of all or a portion of his
annual retainer under the SPS 1988 Long Term Incentive Stock Plan.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change of Control
Arrangements
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company has entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. Grigg
commencing on December 1, 1993 and continuing until his termination of
employment with the Company or his retirement at age 65. The Agreement
provides for an annual base salary in the first year of $400,000, with an
increase on each subsequent December 1 of an amount equal to at least the
percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for the Philadelphia
Region. The Employment Agreement also provides for an incentive bonus
payment of $150,000 for the first year, and eligibility to participate in
the Company's Management Incentive Plan thereafter. The Agreement further
provides for a payment of up to $25,000 plus any federal and state income
tax liability for purchase of an automobile from his previous employer. He
is eligible to participate in all executive benefit plans, stock option
programs and employee fringe benefits during his employment with the
Company. The Employment Agreement contains severance provisions whereby,
upon a "change of control" (as defined in the Executive Severance
Agreement described below), the provisions under such Severance Agreement
govern; upon termination of employment by Mr. Grigg, or by the Company for
"cause" (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or upon death,
disability or retirement, he is entitled only to the benefits accrued
under the specific benefit plans in which he participates; and upon
termination of employment by the Company without "cause," if within the
first three years of employment, he is entitled to 200% of his base salary
then in effect plus such benefits to which he would have been entitled
under the Company's Senior Executive Severance Plan (described below) as
if he were a participant, and if after three years of employment, the
benefits provided in the Senior Executive Severance Plan (described
below). Mr. Grigg is subject to a non-competition provision during the
term of his employment with the Company and for a period of two years
thereafter.

The Company has entered into an Executive Severance Agreement
("Agreement") with each of the Named Officers. The Agreement provides
that if a "triggering termination" of employment (as defined in the
Agreement) occurs within three years after a "change of control" of the
Company (as defined in the Agreement), then the employee is entitled to
receive within 15 days after the employee's termination date, among other
benefits, cash in an amount equal to two times the sum of the employee's
annual base salary plus the incentive bonus awards earned by or allocated
to the employee in the previous fiscal year under each of the Company's
Management Incentive Plan (MIP) and Executive Incentive Plan (EIP). A
"triggering termination" generally includes a termination of employment
initiated by the Company for any reason other than a disability qualifying
the employee for benefits under the Company's Long Term Disability Plan,

or for "cause" (as defined in the Agreement), or by the employee for
certain reasons set forth in the Agreement.

Upon a "triggering termination," the employee will also be entitled
to receive the appreciated value of all the employee's stock options
outstanding and unexercised as of the termination date (whether or not
vested), any unpaid salary, all incentive bonus awards payable to, earned
by or allocated to the employee under the MIP and EIP, and all amounts
deferred by the employee under any incentive plan and under the Company's
Executive Deferred Compensation Plan. The employee will also receive two
additional years of credited service under each of the Company's RIP, BEP
and SERP, and will, for two years, continue to receive certain insurance
benefits on a cost-sharing basis. The employee's benefits from BEP and
SERP are payable in a lump sum within 15 days after the termination date.
Any restrictions remaining on restricted shares that may have been awarded
to the employee lapse, and the employee will own such shares free and
clear of any Company-imposed restriction. Any non-competition agreements
(including non-compete provisions of the EIP and MIP) terminate; however,
the employee will continue to be bound by the confidentiality provisions
of the Agreement. Each Agreement provides for compensation to the employee
for any adverse effect of payments under the Agreement determined to be
"excess parachute payments," as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.

Pursuant to the Company's Senior Executive Severance Plan (SESP), each
of the Named Officers would receive certain compensation and benefits in
the event of termination of employment with the Company, without a change
of control, for any reason other than for "cause" (as defined in the
SESP) or a disability which qualifies the participant for benefits under
the Company's Long Term Disability Plan, or if initiated by the
participant, upon the occurrence of certain events described in the SESP.
Upon such termination, the participant is entitled to receive (among other
benefits) the base salary in effect prior to the termination date for a
period of up to 12 months, all bonuses earned under the MIP and EIP for
completed and uncompleted (pro rata) periods, and all amounts deferred
under the Company's Executive Deferred Compensation Plan. The participant
will remain on the Company's payroll for up to 12 months, during which all
employee benefits to which the participant was entitled prior to the
termination will continue, and the participant will be entitled to
professional outplacement services. At the end of the 12-month period, the
participant will be vested in the Company's BEP and SERP (if a
participant) and will be entitled to receive a lump sum payment of these
retirement benefits. Restrictions on restricted shares, if any, issued to
the participant lapse. The participant is prohibited from competing with
the Company during the 12-month period following termination of
employment. If the participant is employed by a competitor of the Company
without the Company's consent, the ongoing benefits described above cease
as of the date of such employment. If the participant is employed on a
full-time basis by other than a competitor, the ongoing benefits cease
either as of the date of such employment or six months, whichever is
later. In the event an employee receives a payment under the Agreement, he
is not eligible to receive any payment under the SESP. The Company has
agreed that the SESP will not be terminated or amended to reduce or
eliminate the benefits granted to certain employees, including the Named
Officers. The SESP provides for additional compensation to the participant

if any plan payment is subject to an excise or similar tax under the
Internal Revenue Code.

In addition, the Company offers retiring executives (including the
Named Officers) an agreement pursuant to which, under certain
circumstances, the Company would be required to pay in a lump sum all
amounts otherwise payable periodically to them under any plan of, or
agreement with, the Company. Such lump sum payment would be made only if,
within three years after a "change of control" (as defined in such
agreement), there is a change in two of the top three executive officers
of the Company designated in such agreement. To date, no such agreements
are in effect.

For a discussion of payments received by a Named Officer upon his
retirement at year-end 1993, refer to the discussion following the Pension
Plan Table.

Compensation Committee Report on Executive Compensation

Overview and Philosophy
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Executive Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the Board of
Directors ("Compensation Committee") is composed entirely of outside
directors and is responsible for developing and making recommendations to
the Board with respect to the Company's executive compensation policies.
In addition, the Compensation Committee annually recommends to the full
Board the compensation to be paid to the Chief Executive Officer and
President, and determines the compensation of each of the other executive
officers of the Company. The Compensation Committee is free to engage and
consult with outside compensation consultants as it sees fit and generally
has access to independent compensation data.

The objectives of the Company's executive compensation program are to:

* Emphasize long-term performance and increases in shareholder value.
* Provide base compensation and benefit levels that are competitive
with those in the markets in which the Company competes for
executive personnel.
* Reward executives for the achievement of short-term and long-term
financial goals and the enhancement of shareholder value.
* Support a performance-oriented environment by providing incentive
compensation that changes in a consistent and predictable way with
both the financial performance of the Company and management
performance in support of strategic objectives.
* Provide a long-term and career-oriented compensation environment.
* Offer meaningful and competitive retirement and supplemental
benefits that are consistent with the Company's objective of
retaining key employees.

The executive compensation program provides a compensation package
that is competitive with that offered by similar companies. The Company
periodically reviews the competitive practices of companies in the
fabricated metals, durable manufacturing and other industries, as well as
with a broader group of companies of comparable size and complexity.
Actual compensation levels may be greater or less than average competitive
levels in surveyed companies based upon annual and long-term Company

performance as well as individual performance. The Compensation Committee
uses its discretion to set executive compensation at levels warranted in
its judgment by external, internal or an individual's circumstances.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Executive Officer Compensation
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Executive officer compensation is comprised of base salary, annual
cash incentive compensation, long-term incentive compensation in the form
of stock options, specific benefits designed to provide remuneration for
career service, and various benefits, including medical, life insurance
and savings plans generally available to employees of the Company.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Base Salary
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Base salary levels for the Company's executive officers are
competitively set relative to certain companies in the fabricated metals,
durable manufacturing and other industries as well as other comparable
companies. In determining salaries, the Compensation Committee also takes
into account individual experience and performance and specific expertise
beneficial to the Company.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Incentive Compensation
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company's incentive programs are intended to provide incentives to
achieve financial and individual objectives, and to reward exceptional
performance. The Management Incentive Plan is the Company's annual
incentive program for executive officers and key managers. The purpose of
the plan is to provide a direct financial incentive in the form of an
annual cash bonus to executives for the attainment of annual financial and
individual goals. Threshold, target and maximum goals for total Company
and individual business unit performance are set by the Compensation
Committee at the beginning of each fiscal year.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Equity-Based Compensation
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The equity-based compensation component of the Company's executive
compensation program is oriented toward the achievement of increasing
shareholder value over the long term. This component of the program - the
SPS 1988 Long Term Incentive Stock Plan - provides for grants of stock
options which align the executive's awards with future shareholder gains.
These grants enable executives to develop and maintain a significant,
long-term ownership position in the Company's Common Stock.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Executive Benefits
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The benefit component of executive compensation is designed to provide
executives with adequate and meaningful retirement benefits which are
reflective of the benefits offered in comparable companies, and which
encourage career-service orientation of the Company's executives. In
addition, other benefits such as perquisites are rigidly controlled and
minimized. The amount of such perquisites, as determined in accordance
with rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to executive
compensation, did not exceed 10% of salary for fiscal 1993.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chief Executive Officer Compensation
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The compensation of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is fixed by the
full Board of Directors (other than the CEO) consistent with the practices
described above. Factors considered by the Board of Directors in deciding
the compensation of the CEO are generally subjective. Mr. Selby received
the same base salary during 1993 as the previous year, and he received no

bonus during 1993. Mr. Grigg's annual base salary was set by the Board of
Directors at $400,000, which amount was set to be competitive with
companies of similar size and complexity. Mr. Grigg, in his first year of
employment, will earn a fixed bonus of $150,000.

Members of the Executive Compensation and Stock Option Committee -
Paul F. Miller, Jr., Chairman; Dr. John F. Lubin; Allen C. Menke; Eric M.
Ruttenberg and F. James Skinner.
