PROXY STATEMENT

----------------------

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON OCTOBER 4, 2000

This Proxy Statement is furnished to the holders of shares of the $.001
par value per share Common Stock (the "Common Stock") of International Airline
Support Group, Inc. (the "Company") in connection with the solicitation by the
Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") of proxies for use at the Annual
Meeting of Stockholders to be held at the offices of the Company at the address
listed above, on Wednesday, October 4, 2000, at 10:00 a.m. local time, and at
any adjournments thereof (the "2000 Annual Meeting"). This Proxy Statement and
accompanying form of proxy are first being sent to stockholders on or about
August 29, 2000.

The cost of this solicitation will be borne by the Company. In addition to
solicitation by mail, certain officers and employees of the Company, who will
receive no compensation for their services other than their regular salaries,
may solicit proxies in person or by telephone or by written communication. The
Company may also make arrangements with brokerage houses, custodians, nominees
and other fiduciaries to send proxy material to their principals at the
Company's expense. The Company has retained Corporate Investors Communications,
Inc. to aid in solicitation of proxies. The Company will pay such firm a fee of
approximately $3,500 and will reimburse it for certain expenses.

VOTING PROCEDURES

Voting Stock

Only holders of record of the Company's Common Stock as of the close of
business on August 10, 2000 (the "Record Date") will be entitled to vote at the
2000 Annual Meeting. The Company had outstanding 2,190,198 shares of Common
Stock on the Record Date, each share being entitled to one vote on each matter
submitted to the stockholders.

Stockholders who do not expect to attend the 2000 Annual Meeting are urged
to execute and return the enclosed proxy card promptly. Any stockholder signing
and returning a proxy may revoke the same at any time prior to the voting of the
proxy by giving written notice to the Secretary of the Company or by voting in
person at the meeting. All properly executed proxy cards delivered by
stockholders and not revoked will be voted at the 2000 Annual Meeting in
accordance with the directions given. With respect to each proposal being
submitted to the stockholders for their consideration, stockholders may (i) vote
"FOR" such proposal, (ii) vote "AGAINST" such proposal, or (iii) abstain from
voting on such proposal. If no specific instructions are given with regard to
the matters to be voted upon, the shares represented by a signed proxy card will
be voted "FOR" the election of Messrs. Dyer and Murnane as Class III Directors
to serve a three-year term that will expire at the annual meeting of
stockholders in 2003, "FOR" the proposal to effect a one-for-four reverse stock
split with respect to the Common Stock, "FOR" the proposal to amend the 1996
Long Term Incentive and Share Award Plan (the "Plan") to increase by 109,000
(27,250, if the reverse stock split is approved) the number of shares available
for grant under the Plan and "FOR" ratification of the appointment of Grant
Thornton LLP as independent accountants for the Company's 2001 fiscal year.
Management knows of no other matters that may come before the meeting for
consideration by the stockholders. However, if any other matter properly comes
before the meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy card as proxies will
vote upon such matters in accordance with their judgment.

Quorum and Voting Requirements

A quorum at the Annual Meeting will consist of a majority of the votes
entitled to be cast by the holders of all shares of Common Stock that are
outstanding and entitled to vote. A majority of the votes entitled to be cast by

the holders of all shares of Common Stock that are present at the meeting and
entitled to vote will be necessary to approve each proposal, other than the
proposal to effect a one-for-four reverse stock split with respect to the Common
Stock. The reverse-stock-split proposal will require the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding. Abstentions and
proxies relating to "street name" shares for which brokers have not received
voting instructions from the beneficial owner ("Broker Non-Votes") are counted
in determining whether a quorum is present. With respect to the proposals which
require the affirmative vote of majority of the votes entitled to be cast,
abstentions will be counted as part of the total number of votes cast on such
proposals in determining whether the proposals have received the requisite
number of favorable votes, whereas Broker Non-Votes will not be counted as part
of the total number of votes cast on such proposals. Thus abstentions will have
the same effect as votes against any given proposal, whereas Broker Non-Votes
will have no effect in determining whether any given proposal has been approved
by the stockholders. With respect to the reverse-stock-split proposal,
abstentions and Broker Non-Votes will have the same effect as votes against the
proposal.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS (PROPOSAL NO. 1)

Under the Restated and Amended Certificate of Incorporation (the
"Certificate") and the Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws) of the Company,
the number of directors of the Company is fixed at seven members; and the number
of directors constituting the Board shall not be changed without the affirmative
vote of at least 75% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock.
The directors of the Company are elected at the annual meeting of stockholders.
The Certificate and the Bylaws of the Company provide for a Board of Directors
divided into three classes, as nearly equal in size as possible, having
staggered terms of three years. As a result, approximately one-third of the
Board will be elected each year. Pursuant to the Certificate and the Bylaws, the
Board has nominated the persons set forth below as Class III directors to serve
a three-year term that will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders in
2003.

Alexius A. Dyer III
George Murnane III

Management of the Company and the Board recommend the election of Mr.
Alexius A. Dyer III and Mr. George Murnane III for the office of Class III
director to hold office for a three-year term and until their successors are
duly elected and qualified. In addition to the two nominees, there are two other
directors continuing to serve on the Board, Messrs. F. Dixon McElwee, Jr. and E.
James Mueller, whose terms expire in 2002. There are currently three vacancies
on the Board. The Company has not nominated anyone to fill such vacancies.

The Board has no reason to believe that either of the nominees for the
office of director will be unavailable for election as director. However, if at
the time of the Annual Meeting either of the nominees should be unable or
decline to serve, the persons named in the enclosed proxy card will vote as
recommended by the Board to elect substitute nominees or vote to allow the
vacancy created thereby to remain open until filled by the Board, as recommended
by the Board. In no event, however, can a proxy be voted to elect more than five
directors.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR this proposal.

Committees of the Board and Compensation Committee Interlocks

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors reviews all aspects
of compensation of executive officers of the Company and makes recommendations
on such matters to the full Board of Directors. No executive officer of the
Company serves as a member of the Board of Directors or compensation committee
of any entity which has one or more executive officers serving as a member of
the Company's Board of Directors.

The Audit Committee makes recommendations to the Board concerning the
selection of outside auditors, reviews the financial statements of the Company
and considers such other matters in relation to the internal and external audit
of the financial affairs of the Company as may be necessary or appropriate in
order to facilitate accurate and timely financial reporting. The Audit Committee
also reviews proposals for major transactions.

The Company does not maintain a standing nominating committee or other
committee performing similar functions.

Compensation of Directors

The non-employee members of the Company's Board of Directors received a
$25,000 fee for their service on the Board during fiscal 2000 pursuant to a
Director's Compensation Plan that was adopted during fiscal 1995. Directors are
also reimbursed for expenses incurred in connection with the attendance of Board
meetings.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act") requires the Company's officers and directors, and persons who
own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity
securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership on Forms 3, 4
and 5 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and
greater than ten percent stockholders are required by law to furnish the Company
copies of all Forms 3, 4 and 5 they file.

Based solely on the Company's review of the copies of such forms it has
received and representations from certain reporting persons, the Company
believes that its officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial
owners complied with all filing requirements applicable to them with respect to
transactions during fiscal 2000.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS WITH DIRECTORS AND THEIR AFFILIATES

In December 1995, the Company entered into a commission agreement with
J.M. Associates, Inc., a business development consulting firm of which Mr.
Mueller is a principal. The commission agreement is non-exclusive and provides
that J.M. Associates will receive commissions of between 3% and 4% of lease
revenues or the purchase or sale price of completed parts acquisitions or sales
with parties introduced to the Company by J.M. Associates. In fiscal 2000, the
Company paid Mr. Mueller $60,000 for services rendered to the Company under this
agreement and in connection with Mr. Mueller's participation in the Company's
outside consulting activities.

The Company believes the terms of such transactions were no less favorable
than could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties. Any future transactions
between the Company and its officers or directors are subject to approval by a
majority of the disinterested directors of the Company.

PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the
beneficial ownership of the Company's Common Stock, as of August 10, 2000, by

Employment Agreements

As of October 3, 1996, the Company extended for an additional five years
the employment agreement with Alexius A. Dyer III, President, Chief Executive
Officer and Chairman of the Company. The employment agreement provides for
payment of a base salary of $180,000 per annum for each year during the
remaining term and annual cost-of-living increases, which base salary may be
increased as the Board deems appropriate. During the term of the employment
agreement and any extension thereof, Mr. Dyer shall serve as a member of the
Board.

Mr. Dyer's employment agreement also provides that he is entitled to an
annual bonus during the stated term in an amount not less than 5% of the
Company's net income before extraordinary and non-recurring items and income
taxes, subject to two adjustments. First, in computing net income, the Company
is required to exclude any item of revenue or expense attributable to any
litigation commenced by or against the Company. Second, items of revenue and
expense attributable to the sale of aircraft are not considered extraordinary or
non-recurring items.

Pursuant to the employment agreement, if Mr. Dyer is terminated without
cause prior to the end of the term of the employment agreement, the Company is
required to pay to Mr. Dyer the base salary for the remaining term of the
agreement plus an amount equal to a pro rata portion (based on months employed
during the current fiscal year) of the bonus paid to him during the previous
fiscal year. If Mr. Dyer terminates the employment agreement following the
occurrence of a "Change of Control" (as defined in the employment agreement),
the Company is obligated to pay to him an amount equal to the average annual
compensation paid to him during the two most recent fiscal years by the Company.

As of October 3, 1996, the Company entered into a five-year employment
agreement with George Murnane III, the Executive Vice President and Chief
Operating Officer. The employment agreement provides for payment of a base
salary of $154,000 per annum for each year during the remaining term and annual
cost-of-living increases, which base salary may be increased as the Board deems
appropriate. During the term of the employment agreement and any extension
thereof, Mr. Murnane shall serve as a member of the Board.

Mr. Murnane's employment agreement also provides that he is entitled to an
annual bonus during the stated term in an amount not less than 3% of the
Company's net income before extraordinary and non-recurring items and income
taxes, subject to two adjustments. First, in computing net income, the Company
is required to exclude any item of revenue or expense attributable or to any
litigation commenced by or against the Company. Second, items of revenue and
expense attributable to the sale of aircraft are not considered extraordinary or
non-recurring items.

Pursuant to his employment agreement, if Mr. Murnane is terminated without
cause prior to the end of the term of the employment agreement, the Company is
required to pay to Mr. Murnane the base salary for the remaining term of the
agreement plus an amount equal to a pro rata portion (based on months employed
during the

current fiscal year) of the bonus paid to him during the previous fiscal year.
If Mr. Murnane terminates the employment agreement following the occurrence of a
"Change of Control" (as defined in the employment agreement), the Company is
obligated to pay to him an amount equal to the average annual compensation paid
to him during the two most recent fiscal years by the Company.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

The Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors
consists of Mr. Mueller and Mr. McElwee, both of whom are non-employee members
of the Board of Directors. The Committee is responsible for administering the
Plan.

Executive Compensation Policies

Generally, the Company's executive compensation program is designed to be
competitive with that offered by other companies against which the Company
competes for executive resources. At the same time, the Company links a
significant portion of executive compensation to the achievement of the
Company's short and long-term financial and strategic objectives and to the
performance of the Company's Common Stock. The Company's executive compensation
program consists of three primary elements: base salary, annual incentive bonus
and stock options or other stock benefits. Base salary is intended to be
competitive in the marketplace. However, although the Committee considers
competitive data, salaries are determined subjectively by the Committee rather
than by reference to any specific target group of companies. Subject to the
terms of any applicable employment agreement, base salary is reviewed at least
annually and adjusted based on changes in competitive pay levels, the
executive's performance as measured against individual and Company-wide goals,
as well as changes in the executive's role in the Company. The Committee awards
incentive bonuses to the Named Executives based on the achievement of certain
targets and objectives in a manner consistent with the terms of their employment
agreements. The Company does not make annual stock option or other stock benefit
grants to all executives. Rather, the Committee determines each year which, if
any, executives will receive benefits, based on individual performance and each
executive's existing stock option position.

Executive Officer Compensation

Alexius A. Dyer III, the Company's President, Chief Executive Officer and
Chairman, and George Murnane III, the Company's Executive Vice President and
Chief Operating Officer, each entered into employment agreements in connection
with the restructuring of the Company's capital structure on October 3, 1996.
See "Management -- Employment Agreements." The base compensation, incentive
bonus and stock option agreements entered into by the Company with such
individuals were determined by arm's-length negotiations between the
Compensation Committee and certain holders of the Company's then-outstanding
debt securities and such individuals. The Compensation Committee believes that
the specific base compensation, incentive bonus and stock option arrangements
were necessary to attract management of the caliber sought by the Board. Future
adjustments of such arrangements will be made in accordance with the general
principles outlined above.

The Company paid Mr. Dyer and Mr. Murnane a bonus in fiscal 2000 with
respect to performance in fiscal 1999, calculated under the terms of their
respective employment agreements. The Board of Directors is also permitted to
award discretionary cash bonuses to senior executives of the Company who are
designated as "Senior Executives" by the Board of Directors. The Board of
Directors is given the discretion to make bonuses subject to conditions and to
establish forfeiture conditions, in each case as the Board deems appropriate. In
fiscal 2000, the Board did not award discretionary cash bonuses to Messrs. Dyer
or Murnane.

Compensation of the President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman

The compensation of Mr. Dyer was determined, as noted above, based on the
terms of his employment agreement, which was negotiated at arm's-length. The
Board of Directors did not award stock options or a discretionary cash bonus to
Mr. Dyer during fiscal 2000.

This report by the Committee shall not be deemed to be incorporated by
reference by a general statement incorporating by reference this Proxy Statement
into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act and shall
not otherwise be deemed filed under such Acts.

PERFORMANCE GRAPH

The following graph sets forth the total return on a $100 investment in
each of (i) the Company's Common Stock, (ii) the AMEX Major Market Index and
(iii) a Peer Group, from May 31, 1995 through May 31, 2000. The Peer Group
consists of AAR Corp., Aviall, Inc., Aviation Sales, Inc., AVTEAM, Inc.,
Aviation Distributors, Inc., and Kellstrom, Inc. (price data on AVTEAM, Inc. and
Aviation Distributors, Inc. is not available until 1997 and their year-to-year
performance does not affect the performance of the Peer Group until 1998; price
data for Kellstrom, Inc. is not available until 1996 and its year-to-year
performance does not affect the performance of the Peer Group until 1997). The
total return set forth with respect to the Company has been adjusted to give
effect to the Company's 1-for-27 reverse stock split consummated on October 3,
1996. The first reported sale of the Company's Common Stock following the
reverse stock split occurred on October 18, 1996 at $4.50 per share. The
Company's Common Stock closed at $2.625 per share on May 31, 2000.

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION (PROPOSAL NO. 2)

By unanimous written consent effective as of August __, 2000, the Board of
Directors approved an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to
effect a reverse stock split pursuant to which each four shares of the Company's
outstanding Common Stock will be combined into one share of Common Stock (the
"Reverse Stock Split Amendment"). If adopted, the Reverse Stock Split Amendment
would become effective on the date of the 2000 Annual Meeting (the "Effective
Date"). The authorized capitalization of the Company will not be affected by the
Reverse Stock Split Amendment. Adoption of the Reverse Stock Split Amendment
requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of
Common Stock outstanding.

The Board of Directors have approved the Reverse Stock Split Amendment to
reduce the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding in an effort to increase
the market value for the Company Stock. If the Reverse Stock Split Amendment had
been approved on August 10, 2000, the record date for the 2000 Annual meeting,
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding would have been reduced from
2,190,198 to 547,549. Pursuant to adjustment provisions contained in all the
Company's outstanding stock options, the number of shares of Common Stock that
may be obtained upon exercise of a stock option will be adjusted to give effect
to the Reverse Stock Split Amendment.

If the Reverse Stock Split Amendment is approved by the Company's
stockholders, the Company will instruct its transfer agent to act as its
exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent") and to act for holders of the Common Stock
in implementing the exchange of their certificates. Commencing on the Effective
Date, stockholders will be notified and requested to surrender to the Exchange
Agent their certificates representing shares of old Common Stock in exchange for
certificates representing new Common Stock. One share of new Common Stock will
be issued in exchange for each four shares presently issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock. Beginning on the Effective Date, each certificate
representing shares of the Common Stock will be deemed, for all corporate
purposes, to evidence ownership of shares of new Common Stock. The Company will
not issue fractional shares to any stockholder who owns less than one share of
Common Stock as a result of the approval of the Reverse Stock Split Amendment.
Instead, the Company will pay cash for the fractional share based on the closing
sale price of a share of Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange on the day
prior to the 2000 Annual Meeting.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR this proposal.

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO PLAN (PROPOSAL NO. 3)

By unanimous written consent effective as of August __, 2000, the Board of
Directors, subject to stockholder approval, amended the Plan in order to
increase by 109,000 (27,250, if the Reverse Stock Split Amendment is approved)
the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock for which options may be
granted. If the stockholders approve the amendment to the Plan, options to
purchase a total of 1,076,782 (269,195, if the Reverse Stock Split Amendment is
approved) shares of the Company's Common Stock may be granted under the Plan.
The Compensation Committee has previously granted options to purchase 801,575 of
the 967,782 shares presently available for issuance under the Plan. As of August
10, 2000 there were 529,947 unexercised options. If the Reverse Stock Split
Amendment is approved, the unexercised options will represent the right to
purchase 132,486 shares of Common Stock. The Board recommends that the
stockholders of the Company approve the amendment of the Plan. The affirmative
vote of the majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's
Common Stock present in person or represented by proxies at the 2000 Annual
Meeting is required for approval of the amendment of the Plan.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR this proposal.

Plan Description. The Plan was approved by the Company's stockholders at a
special meeting of the stockholders held on September 30, 1996. The Plan is
intended to provide a means to attract, retain and motivate selected employees
and directors of the Company. The Plan provides for the grant to eligible
employees of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock
appreciation rights, restricted shares and restricted share units, performance
shares and performance units, dividend equivalents and other share-based awards
(collectively, "awards"). All employees and non-employee directors are eligible
to participate in the Plan. The Plan is administered by the Compensation
Committee. The Compensation Committee has the full and final authority to

select employees to whom awards may be granted, to determine the type of awards
to be granted to such employees and to make all administrative determinations
required by the Plan. The Compensation Committee also will have authority to
waive conditions relating to an award or accelerate vesting of awards. The Plan
provides for certain grants of nonqualified stock options to directors who are
not executive officers of the Company. Upon adoption of the Plan, an aggregate
of 598,782 shares of the Company's Common Stock were reserved for issuance under
the Plan, subject to anti-dilution adjustments in the event of certain changes
in the Company's capital structure. The Company's stockholders approved at the
fiscal 1997 Annual Meeting an amendment to the Plan to increase by 115,000 the
number of shares of the Company's Common Stock subject to the Plan. In fiscal
1998, the Plan was amended again by a vote of stockholder to increase by 128,000
the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock subject to the Plan. During
fiscal 1999, an additional 12,000 options were issued pursuant to the Plan. The
Plan was further amended in fiscal 1999 to increase by 109,000 the number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock subject to the Plan. The numbers of shares
and options set forth in this paragraph do not give effect to the Reverse Stock
Split Amendment.

Stock Options. The Plan authorizes the granting of both incentive stock
options and non-qualified stock options. At the discretion of the Compensation
Committee, awards of options to employees under the Plan may be granted in
tandem with other types of awards, incentive stock options granted to employees
under the Plan, and any accompanying share appreciation rights, must generally
expire within 10 years after the date of grant. The exercise prices of incentive
stock options must be equal to at least 100% of the fair market value of the
Common Stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of non-qualified stock
options may be more or less than the fair market value of the Common Stock on
the date of grant. Awards under the Stock Option Plan to employees, except for
vested shares, are not transferable by the holder other than by will or
applicable laws of descent or distribution, except pursuant to a designation
filed by an employee with the Company as to who shall receive the benefits
specified under the Plan upon the death of such employee.

Restricted Stock. The Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee to grant
shares of restricted stock to employees, subject to the terms and conditions
imposed by the Compensation Committee. These terms may include a restriction
period during which the shares of restricted stock may not be sold, assigned,
transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered and during which such shares may be
subject to forfeiture. Except for such restrictions on transfer and such other
restrictions as the Compensation Committee may impose, the recipient of
restricted stock will have all the rights of a holder of Common Stock as to such
restricted stock including the right to vote the shares and the right to receive
dividends. Except as provided by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant
or otherwise, upon a termination of employment for any reason during the
restriction period, all shares still subject to restriction will be forfeited by
the employee. The Plan also authorizes the Compensation Committee to grant
restricted share units to an employee, under which shares of Common Stock or
cash will be delivered to the employee after the expiration of the restriction
period.

Share Appreciation Rights. The Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee
to grant share appreciation rights to employees, subject to the terms and
conditions imposed by the Compensation Committee. Share appreciation rights give
an employee the right to receive the excess of the fair market value of shares
of Common Stock on the date of exercise over the exercise price of the share
appreciation rights, as set by the Compensation Committee. Terms within the
discretion of the Compensation Committee may include the time of exercise, the
form of consideration payable at exercise, and the method by which shares of
Common Stock will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to an employee.

Performance Shares and Performance Units. The Plan also authorizes the
Compensation Committee to grant performance shares or performance units to
employees, subject to the terms and conditions imposed by the Compensation
Committee. These awards provide shares of Common Stock or cash to an employee
upon the satisfaction of certain performance objectives, as determined by the
Compensation Committee. Awards may be fixed or may vary in accordance with the
level of such performance. The Compensation Committee generally may revise the
performance objectives to reflect the occurrence of significant events which it
expects to have a substantial effect on the performance objectives. Except as
provided by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant or otherwise, upon a
termination of employment during the performance period, all shares and units
relating to such performance period will be forfeited by the employee.

- 13 -

Dividend Equivalents. The Plan also authorizes the Compensation Committee
to grant dividend equivalents to employees. These awards may relate to other
awards of shares, rights or units and generally give an employee the right to
receive cash or other property equal to any dividends paid on the shares of
Common Stock underlying such other awards. Such dividend equivalents may either
be paid when accrued or deemed to have been reinvested in additional shares of
Common Stock. Dividend equivalents (other than freestanding dividend
equivalents) will be subject to all conditions and restrictions of the
underlying awards to which they relate.

In addition to the foregoing types of awards, the Plan also authorities
the Compensation Committee, subject to limitations under applicable law, to
grant employees any other award based on shares of Common Stock, including the
award of unrestricted shares purely as a bonus and not subject to any
conditions. Cash awards, as an element of or supplement to any other award, are
also authorized under the Plan. In all cases, the Compensation Committee shall
determine the terms and conditions of such awards.

The Plan generally may be amended, altered, suspended, discontinued or
terminated from time to time by the Board of Directors, except that stockholder
approval is required, in accordance with Section 422 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), for any amendment (a) to increase the
number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan or (b) to
change the class of employees eligible to participate in the Plan; provided,
however, that no such amendment may impair the rights of any participant without
his consent.

The Plan provides that, if the Compensation Committee determines that a
stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reorganization, merger,
consolidation, spin-off, combination, or similar corporate transaction affects
the Common Stock such that an adjustment is appropriate to prevent dilution or
enlargement of rights of employees participating in the Plan, the Compensation
Committee has discretion to adjust the number and kind of shares to be issued
under the Plan, the number and kind of shares issuable in respect of outstanding
awards and the exercise price, grant price or purchase price of any award. The
Plan provides that such adjustments with respect to options of directors who are
not executive officers of the Company shall be made automatically. In addition,
the Compensation Committee is authorized to make adjustments in the terms of
awards in recognition of certain unusual or non-recurring events affecting the
Company and its financial statements.

Federal Income Tax Consequences of Option Grants

The following discussion outlines generally the federal income tax
consequences of option awards under the Plan. Individual circumstances may vary
these results. The federal income tax law and regulations are frequently
amended, and each participant should rely on his own tax counsel for advice
regarding federal income tax treatment under the Plan.

Non-Qualified Stock Options. The recipient of a non-qualified stock option
under the Plan is not subject to any federal income tax upon the grant of such
option nor does the grant of the option result in an income tax deduction for
the Company. As a result of the exercise of an option, the recipient will
recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair
market value of the shares transferred to the recipient upon exercise over the
exercise price. Such fair market value generally will be determined on the date
the shares of Common Stock are transferred pursuant to the exercise. However, if
the recipient is subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the date on which
the fair market value of the shares transferred will be determined is delayed
until the earlier of the last day of the six-month period beginning on the date
the "property" is "purchased" or the first day on which a sale of the "property
purchased" will not subject the recipient to suit under Section 16(b) of the
Exchange Act. Alternatively, if the recipient is subject to Section 16(b) of the
Exchange Act and makes a timely election under Section 83(b) of the Code, such
fair market value will be determined on the date the shares are transferred
pursuant to the exercise without regard to the effect of Section 16(b) of the
Exchange Act. The recipient will recognize ordinary income in the year in which
the fair market value of the shares transferred is determined. The Company
generally will be entitled to a federal income tax deduction equal to the amount
of ordinary income recognized by the recipient when such ordinary income is
recognized by the recipient, provided, the Company satisfies applicable federal
income tax reporting requirements. The Company's deduction, however, is subject
to a $1,000,000 limitation on the deduction of certain employee remuneration
under Section 162(m) of the Code, unless an exception for performance-based
compensation under such section applies.

- 14 -

Depending on the period the shares of Common Stock are held after
exercise, the sale or other taxable disposition of shares acquired through the
exercise of a non-qualified stock option generally will result in a short- or a
long-term capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount
realized on such disposition and the fair market value of such shares when the
non-qualified stock option was exercised.

Special rules apply to a recipient who exercises a non-qualified stock
option by paying the exercise price, in whole or in part, by the transfer of
shares of Common Stock to the Company.

Incentive Stock Options. An employee is not subject to any federal income
tax upon the grant of an incentive stock option pursuant to the Plan, nor does
the grant of an incentive stock option result in an income tax deduction for the
Company. Further, an employee will not recognize income for federal income tax
purposes and the Company normally will not be entitled to any federal income tax
deduction as a result of the exercise of an incentive stock option and the
related transfer of shares of Common Stock to the employee. However, the excess
of the fair market value of the shares transferred upon the exercise of the
incentive stock option over the exercise price for such shares generally will
constitute an item of alternative minimum tax adjustment to the employee for the
year in which the option is exercised. Thus, certain employees may increase
their federal income tax liability as a result of the exercise of an incentive
stock option under the alternative minimum tax rules of the Code.

If the shares of Common Stock transferred pursuant to the exercise of an
incentive stock option are disposed of within two years from the date the option
is granted or within one year from the date the option is exercised, the
employee generally will recognize ordinary income equal to the lesser of (1) the
gain recognized (i.e., the excess of the amount realized on the disposition over
the exercise price or (2) the excess of the fair market value of the shares
transferred upon exercise over the exercise price for such shares. If the
employee is subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, special rules may
apply to determine the amount of ordinary income recognized upon the
disposition. The balance, if any, of the employee's gain over the amount treated
as ordinary income on the disposition generally will be treated as long- or
short-term capital gain depending upon whether the holding period applicable to
long-term capital assets is satisfied. The Company generally would be entitled
to a federal income tax deduction equal to any ordinary income recognized by the
employee, provided the Company satisfies applicable federal income tax reporting
requirements and subject to the limitation on the deduction of certain employee
remuneration as mandated by Section 162(m) of the Code, absent an exception for
performance-based compensation under such section.

If the shares of Common Stock transferred upon the exercise of an
incentive stock option are disposed of after the holding periods have been
satisfied, such disposition generally will result in long-term capital gain or
loss treatment with respect to the difference between the amount realized on the
disposition and the exercise price. The Company will not be entitled to a
federal income tax deduction as a result of a disposition of such shares after
these holding periods have been satisfied.
