(1) The potential realizable value columns of the table illustrate values
that might be realized upon exercise of the options immediately prior to
their expiration, assuming the Company's Common Stock appreciates at the
compounded rates specified over the term of the options. These numbers do
not take into account provisions of certain options providing for
termination of the option following termination of employment or
nontransferability of the options and do not make any provision for taxes
associated with exercise. Because actual gains will depend upon, among
other things, future performance of the Common Stock, there can be no
assurance that the amounts reflected in this table will be achieved.

The following table sets forth information concerning the value of options
exercised during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2000 and the value of
unexercised stock options held by the Named Executives as of October 31, 2000:

(*)Year-end values for unexercised in-the-money options represent the
positive spread between the exercise price of such options and the fiscal
year-end market value of the Common Stock, which was $12.4375 on October
31, 2000.

Director Compensation

receive options under the Company's 1997 Stock Option Plan. Mr. Leeds
received options to purchase 12,500 shares during the year ended October
31, 2000. It is expected that non-employee directors will receive a cash
