The number of shares have been adjusted for the Company's 3 for 2 stock split in
February 2003.

      The number of anti-dilutive weighted average shares that have been
      excluded in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the year
      ended June 30, 2004 was 178,500. These shares have been excluded because
      the options' exercise price was greater than the average market price of
      the common stock. There were no anti-dilutive weighted average shares
      excluded in the computation for 2003 and 2002.

                                                                              94
