NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER

FY2019 SHORT TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

August 15, 2018

The Fiscal Year 2019 Short Term Incentive Plan (FY19 STIP) for Named Executive
Officers (NEOs) is designed to motivate the NEOs to achieve the Company's FY19
operating plan and its net sales and operating income objectives. The FY19 STIP
has been approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and
provides for the payment of cash incentive awards if the stated FY19 operating
plan objectives are achieved.  There are three elements of the STIP.

1.
Bonus Potential determines the percentage incentive award payout to the NEOs
based on the achievement of the FY19 operating plan objectives.

2.
Performance Mix determines the bonus weighting assigned to the performance of
the Company and / or to the performance of a specific business segment.  The
FY19 STIP assigns a 100% weighting factor to Company performance for the NEOs.

3.
Metrics determine the performance objectives and the percentage weighting
assigned to each performance metric.  The FY19 STIP maintains the net sales
objective (50% weighting) and an operating income objective (50% weighting).

The payment of any FY19 STIP incentive award is conditioned on achievement of
the operating income threshold which for purposes of the FY19 STIP is
$9,612,000.

The following example calculation is provided for illustrative purposes only.

The following rules govern the FY19 STIP:

A.
The FY19 STIP will take into account the Company's consolidated results. The use
of consolidated results as a determinant of the FY19 STIP incentive award
provides motivation for each NEO to work for the success of the entire corporate
enterprise.

B.
The Compensation Committee may make modifications to the calculated incentive
award to decrease or increase an incentive award for special objectives,
achievements and other factors or circumstances.

C.
The determination of the achievement of the Company's net sales and operating
income objectives will be calculated based upon actual reported FY19 results and
may be adjusted for certain unusual or non-recurring items as approved by the
Compensation Committee.  There will be a straight line interpolation of actual
achievement compared to the FY19 business objectives when determining the actual
incentive payment percentage.

D.
FY19 STIP participants must be employed by the Company on the date when
incentive awards are paid related to FY19.  Any NEO who terminates employment or
whose employment is terminated on or before the incentive payment date is not
eligible for an incentive payment.

E.
Any type of lengthy leave of absence may result in an adjustment of the
calculated incentive award.  A leave of absence includes time away from work for
reasons of short term disability, FMLA leave, military leave, or other leave of
absence.

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

F.
If an NEO retires during the fiscal year at normal retirement age or under a
Company approved plan of retirement, the Compensation Committee may consider
payment of a pro-rated incentive award based upon the actual amount of base
salary received during the fiscal year prior to the date of retirement.

G.
If an NEO becomes disabled (as defined by Social Security) or dies during the
fiscal year, the Compensation Committee may consider the payment of a pro-rata
incentive award to such NEO's beneficiary based upon the actual amount of base
salary received during the fiscal year prior to the date of death or disability.

H.
FY19 STIP incentive awards are subject to assignment laws and other laws that
may require payment of the incentive award to an individual other than the named
executive officer (e.g., IRS tax levies, child support arrearages, etc.).  The
Company will comply with all such applicable assignment laws.

I.
The Company reserves the right to amend, reduce, modify, interpret or
discontinue all or part of the FY19 STIP with or without reason as the
Compensation Committee deems advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.

J.
The FY19 STIP does not create or imply the existence of a contract of
employment.

K.
The NEO's base salary rate in effect as of January 1, 2019 shall be used to
calculate the incentive award under the FY19 STIP.

L.
The Company reserves the right to require each NEO to execute and deliver to the
Company a non-compete / non-solicitation agreement as a condition of the payment
of any incentive award under the FY19 STIP.
