Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

The Compensation Committee (the Committee) of our Board of Directors has the responsibility for administering our executive compensation program. The Committee reviews and, as appropriate,
makes recommendations to the full Board regarding the base salaries and annual cash bonuses for executive officers, and administers our 2008 Incentive Stock Plan, including the grant of stock options. Where appropriate, we have also entered into
employment agreements with certain executive officers.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives: Our principal executive compensation
policy, which is endorsed by the Committee, is to provide a compensation program that will attract, motivate and retain persons of high quality and will support a long-standing internal culture of loyalty and dedication to the interests of the
Company and our shareholders. In administering the executive compensation program, the Committee is mindful of the following principles and guidelines, which are supported by the full Board:



| |  |  | Base salaries for executive officers should be competitive.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A sufficient portion of annual compensation should be at risk in order to align the interests of executives with those of our shareholders.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The variable part of annual compensation should reflect both individual and corporate performance.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | As a persons level of responsibility increases, a greater portion of total compensation should be at risk and include more stock-based
compensation to provide executives long-term incentives and help to align further the interests of executives and shareholders in the enhancement of shareholder value.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our executive officers compensation currently has two primary components: base salary and stock-based awards granted pursuant to our 2008 Incentive Stock Plan. In addition, executive officers
receive certain benefits that are specifically provided for in their employment agreements or are generally available to all salaried employees. We do not have any defined benefit pension plans, non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements, or
supplemental retirement plans for our executive officers.

##### Table of Contents

For each executive officer, the Committee determines the appropriate level for each compensation component
based in part, but not exclusively, on its view of competitive market factors, internal equity and consistency, and other considerations deemed relevant, such as rewarding extraordinary performance. Our Chief Executive Officer provides the Committee
with recommendations for executive officers other than himself, which the Committee reviews and approves as submitted or with revisions, if any. The Committee has not adopted any formal or informal policies or guidelines for allocating compensation
between long-term and currently paid compensation, between cash and non-cash compensation, or among different forms of non-cash compensation, and has not sought to formally benchmark our compensation against that of our peers.

In 2011 and 2010, no executive officer received an annual base salary increase, and the Companys executive officers agreed to continue the
voluntary salary reductions that began during 2009, with the exception of Mr. Buelow whose salary was restored effective August 22, 2011. The salary reductions are described below.

On May 29, 2009, the Companys executive officers agreed to accept voluntary salary reductions for the remainder of the 2009 calendar year in exchange for the issuance of restricted shares of
Common Stock as authorized under the Companys 2008 Stock Incentive Plan. On December 31, 2009, the Companys executive officers agreed to extend these salary reductions through June 30, 2010. On July 9, 2010, the
Companys Chief Executive Officer, with the approval of the Board of Directors, decided to continue the cash salary reductions through December 31, 2010. Each executive officer named in the Summary Compensation Table above voluntarily
accepted a 10% salary reduction for May 29, 2009 through December 31, 2010. One executive officer who was not included in the table voluntarily accepted a 40% decrease for the period. The number of restricted shares of Common Stock issued
to each executive officer was equal to the dollar value of the individuals salary reduction divided by the closing price per share of the Companys Common Stock on May 29, 2009, December 30, 2009 and January 3, 2011.
The total number of restricted shares of Common Stock issued to executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers, was 169,547, 137,693 and 93,230, respectively.

With the exception of Mr. Buelow whose salary was restored effective August 22, 2011, the salary reductions described above were continued in 2011; however, no restricted shares were awarded and
no agreement to issue such shares was made. The amounts shown in the Salary caption of the Summary Compensation Table include the value of the restricted shares issued for 2010 as footnoted.

Base Salary: Base salaries for executive officers are based on a review of salaries for similar positions requiring similar qualifications in
similar industries. In determining executive officer salaries, the Compensation Committee has approved the use by management of information from salary surveys.

The Committee determines levels of the executive officers base salaries so as to be competitive with amounts paid to executives performing similar functions in comparable-size, non-durable
manufacturing companies. The amount of each executives annual increase in base salary, if any, is based on a number of largely subjective factors, including changes in the individuals duties and responsibilities, the personal performance
of such executive officer, the performance of the Company, cost-of-living increases, and such other factors as the Committee deems appropriate, including the individuals overall mix between fixed and variable compensation and between cash and
stock-based compensation.

The Chief Executive Officer annually assesses the performance of all other executive officers and recommends salary
increases to the Compensation Committee based on a number of factors such as performance evaluations, comparative data and other relevant factors. The Compensation Committee then reviews the Chief Executive Officers recommendations, considers
the performance and condition of the Company, and approves the increases for any other officer of the Company.

Bonus Incentive Plan:
Prior to fiscal year 2011, the Compensation Committee administered an incentive plan to provide additional compensation to executives who meet established performance goals. In consultation with the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation
Committee annually determined the total amount of cash bonuses available for executive officers and certain other management employees. The target bonuses for executive officers were set by the Compensation Committee. Awards were weighted so that
higher awards were received when the Companys performance reached maximum targets, smaller awards were received when the Companys performance reached minimum targets and no awards are made when the Company did not meet minimum
performance targets. After the total eligible bonus pool was determined, annual incentives were paid to executive officers based on their individual performance as determined by the Chief Executive Officer.

For fiscal year 2010, awards under this bonus plan were contingent upon the Companys attainment of operating profit and cash utilization targets
set by the Compensation Committee in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer. The Companys performance in 2010 did not meet established performance goals and, consequently, no bonuses were paid under this bonus incentive plan.

Bonus Equity Incentive Plan:The Compensation Committee administers a stock option incentive plan for executive officers. Awards under
this plan are contingent upon the Companys attainment of specified revenue and earnings targets set by the Compensation Committee in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer. The Companys performance in 2011 did not meet established
performance goals, and consequently, no stock options were awarded under this Plan.

##### Table of Contents

On February 25, 2010, stock options were granted under the Bonus Equity Incentive Plan for the 2010
plan year; however, these options were cancelled on April 1, 2011, as the Company did not attain the specified performance goals in 2010 that were established pursuant to the Plan.

For fiscal year 2012, no Bonus Incentive Plan or Bonus Equity Incentive Plan has been put in place.

Discretionary Bonuses:In addition to bonuses under the incentive plan, each of our executive officers is eligible to receive annual cash bonuses based on determinations made by the Committee in
its discretion. The bonus may be based on the specific accomplishments of the individual or on the overall success of the Company, or both.

For 2011 and 2010, the Committee did not adopt a discretionary cash bonus plan and no such bonuses were paid.

Stock Options: The Compensation Committee believes that employee equity ownership provides significant motivation to executive officers to
maximize value for the Companys shareholders and, therefore, periodically grants stock options under the Companys 2008 Stock Incentive Plan at the then current market price. The Compensation Committee administers the Companys 2008
Stock Incentive Plan. Stock options will only have value if the Companys stock price increases over the exercise price.

The
Compensation Committee grants options to executive officers after consideration of recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer. Recommendations for options are based upon the relative position, responsibilities, and previous and expected
contributions of each officer, previous option grants to such officers and customary levels of option grants for the respective position in other comparable companies. The exercise price for Stock Options is equal to the fair market value of the
Companys Common Stock on the grant date. Options generally vest over a four-year period at a rate of 25% per year where the first 25% vests one year from the date of grant and the remaining 75% vests equally on a monthly basis over the
remaining 36 months. The options expire 10 years from the date of grant. As of April 29, 2011, the 2008 Incentive Stock Plan was the only plan under which new options may be granted.

Our stock-based compensation policies have been impacted by the implementation of ASC 718. Generally, ASC 718 requires all stock-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to
be expensed based on their fair values over the vesting period.

Section 162(m):Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code
generally disallows a tax deduction to public corporations for compensation in excess of $1 million paid for any fiscal year to a companys Chief Executive Officer or to any of the companys other three most highly compensated executive
officers (other than the Chief Financial Officer). The statute generally exempts qualifying performance-based compensation from the deduction limit if certain conditions are met. In determining base salary, benefits, perquisites and other
compensation, the Committee considers tax deductibility, but a more important goal is to offer compensation that is competitive within our peer group. For 2011, the Company believes that the compensation paid in 2011 to each of the other named
executive officers is deductible under 162(m).

Employment agreements with Named Executive Officers: On December 30, 2009, the
Company entered into an Officer Continuity Agreement with Mr. Kaveski. Under the agreement, should Mr. Kaveski be involuntarily terminated (i) within three months before or two years after a change of control, or (ii) at any
other time, he will be entitled to receive severance benefits for one year from the date of termination. The agreement has a term of three years.

On September 13, 2005, the Company entered into a Management Continuity Agreement with Roger Buelow. Under the agreement, Mr. Buelow would be entitled to receive severance payments equal to one
month of base salary, group health coverage premiums , and automobile allowance for each year of employment in the event his employment with the Company was terminated without cause, or if he terminated his employment following a material reduction
in his responsibilities inconsistent with his position and past responsibilities under certain other conditions, including following a change in control as defined in the agreement. Mr. Buelow has been employed with the Company for twelve
years. The agreement has a term of ten years.

Compensation of Directors

The Company uses a combination of cash and stock-based awards to attract and retain qualified candidates to serve on its Board. In setting director compensation, it considers the significant amount of
time that directors expend in fulfilling their duties, as well as the skill level required.

The following table sets forth the annual cash
compensation for directors who are not also employees:



|                                                       |  |   |        | 
|------------------------------------------------------ |  | - | ------ | 
|Annual Retainer                                        |  | $ | 20,000 | 
|Additional Annual Retainers:                           |  |   |        | 
|Lead Director                                          |  | $ | 10,000 | 
|Compensation Committee Chairman                        |  |   | 5,000  | 
|Audit and Finance Committee Chairman                   |  |   | 7,000  | 
|Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Chairman |  |   | 5,000  | 

Under the terms of the Companys 2008 Stock Incentive Plan as amended, on the first business day following the
conclusion of each regular annual meeting of the Companys shareholders, each non-employee director who was not elected to the Board for the first time at such meeting and who will continue serving as a member of the Board of Director shall
receive an option to purchase 15,000 shares of Common Stock. These options have an exercise price of 100% of the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant, become exercisable monthly over the 12-month period following the date of grant,
and expire the day before the tenth anniversary of the grant date or 12 months after termination of service on the Board. The options vest if a Change in Control occurs with respect to the Company during the optionees service, as defined by
the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan as amended.

For fiscal year 2011 and 2010, in lieu of the automatic options described above, Messrs. von
Paumgartten, Finnerty and Schneeberger were each granted 40,000 options. These options vest over four years with 25% vesting after one year and the remaining 75% vesting monthly over the remaining 36 month period. The exercise price for these
options was equal to the fair market value of the Companys Common Stock on the July 23, 2010 grant date.

In the third quarter of
2010, the Board of Directors approved a program offering Independent Directors of the Company the option of accepting restricted shares of the Companys Common Stock in lieu of quarterly cash compensation. Directors who chose to participate
would receive the equivalent of two dollars ($2.00) of the Companys Common Stock for every one dollar ($1.00) of their normal cash compensation. Directors that chose to accept this program agreed to receive compensation in restricted shares
for four consecutive quarters, covering the period of July 2010 until June 2011, with the Common Stock vesting over the equivalent 12 month period. The price of the restricted shares issued pursuant to this program was based upon the closing price
of the Companys Common Stock on September 20, 2010. On September 1, 2010, four of the five Directors agreed to participate in this program.

|(1) | Based on 44,513,135 shares outstanding as of April 30, 2012. In addition, shares issuable pursuant to options and warrants which may be exercised through
June 29, 2012 are deemed to be issued and outstanding and are included in the reported beneficial holdings, except as explained at the end of this note. These shares have been treated as outstanding in calculating the percentage ownership of
the individual possessing such interest, but not for any other individuals. Thus, the number of shares to be outstanding for the purposes of this table varies depending on each individuals particular circumstances. This table does not include
shares that are issuable upon the exercise of warrants that investors acquired as part of units they purchased in the Companys February 2012 private placement of shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase common shares, but the notes to
the table do include those warrant shares for the 5% shareholders who invested in that offering. The Company is obligated to register with the SEC for resale the shares, and the shares covered by the warrants, that it sold in the offering, but has
not yet done so.

Item 
13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence

Certain Transactions

On August 11, 2011, the Company entered into a Letter of Credit Agreement (LOC) with Mark Plush, Chief Financial Officer
of the Company, in the amount of $250,000. The LOC has a term of 24 months and bears interest at a rate of 12.5% on the face amount. The LOC is collateralized by a cash deposit with an insurance company issuing the Companys contract
performance bonds and by 32% of the unpledged stock of Crescent Lighting, Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company. As an incentive to enter into the LOCs, the Company issued five-year, detached warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of Common Stock at
an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The warrants were approved by the Companys shareholders at the Annual Meeting held on June 16, 2010, as part of the Issuance of Warrants to Directors and Officer who Participate in the Companys
Bonding Support Program.

On December 29, 2009, and in conjunction with the acquisition of Stones River Companies, LLC, the Company
entered into an LOC with John Davenport, President of the Company, for $250,000. The LOC has a term of 24 months and bears interest at a rate of 12.5% on the face amount. The LOC is collateralized by a percentage of the capital stock of Crescent
Lighting Ltd. (CLL), which in turn is based on CLLs net worth as of November 30, 2009, and is subordinated to the senior indebtedness of the Company and CLL. As an incentive to enter into the LOC, the Company issued five-year,
detached warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The Companys shareholders approved the warrants at the Annual Meeting on June 16, 2010, as described above. On December 21, 2011,
the LOC was amended to extend the due date of the LOC from December 31, 2011, on a month by month basis as long as interest continued to be earned at 12.5%. The LOC was subsequently paid on March 5, 2012.

Director Independence

The Board of
Directors has determined that each of the following current directors is independent within the meaning of the listing standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC:

J. James Finnerty

In this
