EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

         The Company has employment agreements with each of Messrs. Gutkowski,
Kaminsky, Letis, Trager, Oppenheim, Dell and Allard.

         The Company and Robert M. Gutkowski have entered into an employment
agreement dated as of March 21, 1996 pursuant to which Mr. Gutkowski agreed to
serve as the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer for an initial
term of five years. The employment agreement provides that Mr. Gutkowski shall
receive an annual base salary

                                     - 5 -

<PAGE>

of $325,000 plus an annual bonus of at least $150,000 (which bonus may be
increased in the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company).

         The employment agreement provides that the Company may terminate Mr.
Gutkowski's employment agreement prior to the expiration of its term in the
event of his death, disability for a period of 26 consecutive weeks or for
"cause." For purposes of the employment agreement, "cause" is defined as the
conviction of a felony, the commission of an act of fraud or embezzlement upon
the Company, a material breach by Mr. Gutkowski of his agreement not to compete
with the Company or the wilful malfeasance or gross negligence by Mr. Gutkowski
in the performance of his duties under the employment agreement or his failure
to perform his duties thereunder, which malfeasance, negligence or failure has
a material adverse effect on the business of the Company and which shall remain
uncured for a period of 15 days following written notice from the Company.

         Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Gutkowski has agreed not to
compete with the Company or solicit any of the Company's clients or employees
during the term of the agreement. In addition, the employment agreement
prohibits Mr. Gutkowski from engaging in such activities for certain periods of
time in the event he voluntarily terminates his employment agreement, the
Company terminates his employment agreement or the employment agreement is not
extended on substantially similar terms.

         Upon its acquisition of A&A and SMTI in December 1996, the Company
entered into employment agreements with each of Messrs. Kaminsky, Letis,
Oppenheim and Trager on substantially the same terms and conditions as Mr.
Gutkowski's employment agreement with the Company, pursuant to which each such
person has agreed to serve as an Executive Vice President of the Company for an
initial term of five years. The employment agreements provided that each of
Messrs. Kaminsky, Letis and Trager will receive an annual base salary of
$300,000 and the employment agreement with Mr. Oppenheim provides that he will
receive an annual base salary of $175,000.

         Upon its acquisition of ProServ (as defined below) in October 1997,
the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Dell pursuant to
which he will serve for an initial term of four years as the chairman and chief
executive officer of ProServ and a director of the Company for a base salary of
not less than $300,000 per year plus certain bonuses. The employment agreement
is terminable after three years by Mr. Dell without any further obligation on
his part (except that he will be subject to a one-year agreement not to compete
with the Company if he opts to receive options to purchase 40,000 shares of
Common Stock); if he does not so terminate the employment agreement, the
Company may extend the employment agreement for a fifth year. In addition,
pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Dell received, at the consummation of
ProServ's acquisition by the Company, and he will receive, upon each
anniversary thereof during the term of his employment agreement, an option to
purchase 40,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price per share based
upon the closing price of the Common Stock on the date of grant.

         Upon its acquisition of ProServ in October 1997, the Company entered
into an employment agreement with Mr. Allard. Mr. Allard's employment agreement
provides that he will serve as President, Chief Operating Officer and Managing
Director of ProServ through December 31, 2000 for an annual base salary of
$300,000 plus certain incentive-based bonuses.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

         Each director who is not an employee of the Company receives $1,500
for each Board of Directors' meeting attended and $750 for each committee
meeting attended, in addition to reimbursement for travel expenses in attending
such meetings. In February 1998, each of Messrs. Barron and Schumer were
awarded 7,500 stock appreciation rights in 1997. These stock appreciation
rights vest over two years and have a strike price of $4.25 per share of Common
Stock.

ESCROW SHARES

         IPO Escrow Shares

         In connection with the Company's initial public offering, TSC and
Messrs. Gutkowski, Kaminsky, Oppenheim, Letis and Trager deposited an aggregate
of 1,275,000 shares of Common Stock into escrow. The escrowed shares are not
assignable or transferable. Of the escrowed shares, (i) 425,000 shares shall be
released from escrow if, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1997, the
Company's income before provision for taxes (the "Minimum Pretax Income")
equals or exceeds $1,400,000; (ii) 425,000 shares (or, it the condition set
forth in (i) above was not met, 850,000 shares) shall be released, if, for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 1998, the Minimum Pretax Income equals or
exceeds $2,400,000; (iii) 425,000 shares (or, if the conditions set forth in
either (i) or (ii) were not met, the remaining escrowed shares) shall be
released if, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1999, the Minimum Pretax
Income equals or exceeds $3,400,000 and (iv) all of the escrowed shares will be
released from escrow if one or more of the following conditions is/are met: (a)
the Closing Price (as defined in the escrow agreement) of the Common Stock
averages in excess of $15.00 per share for any 20 consecutive trading days
during the period from December 5, 1998 until December 31, 1999; or (b) the
Company is acquired by or merged Into another entity in a transaction in which
the value of the per share consideration received by the stockholders of the
Company on the date of such transaction equals or exceeds $15.00 per share. The
Company did not meet the 1997 earnings test and, accordingly, no shares have
been released from escrow.

         If the applicable Minimum Pretax Income levels or Closing Price level
set forth above have not been met by March 31, 2000, the escrowed shares, as
well as any dividends or other distributions made with respect thereto, will be
canceled and contributed to the capital of the Company.

         The Minimum Pretax Income amounts set forth above shall be (i)
calculated exclusive of (x) any extraordinary earnings or charges (including
any charges incurred in connection with the release from escrow of the escrowed
shares and any Escrow Property (as defined below) in respect thereof) and (y)
any interest expense relating to the debentures issued by the Company in
connection with the Private Placement (as defined below); (ii) derived solely
from the businesses owned and operated by the Company following completion of
the Acquisitions and shall not give effect to any operations relating to
businesses or assets acquired after such date and (iii) audited by the
Company's independent public accountants. The Closing Price amount set forth
above is subject to adjustment in the event of any stock splits, reverse stock
splits or other similar events.

         Any money, securities, rights or property distributed in respect of
the escrowed shares shall be received by the escrow agent, including any
property distributed as dividends or pursuant to any stock split, merger,
recapitalization, dissolution or total or partial liquidation of the Company
(the "Escrow Property"); provided, however, that with the exception of any
securities of the Company or any successor to the Company issued as a result of
any of the foregoing, such property shall be delivered to the holders of the
escrowed shares promptly upon the escrow agent's receipt thereof. The Minimum
Pretax Income and Closing Price levels set forth above were determined by
negotiation between the Company and the underwriters in the Company's initial
public offering and should not be construed to imply or predict any future
earnings by the Company or any increase in the market price of its securities.

         QBQ Escrow Shares

         In connection with the acquisition in October 1997 of QBQ
Entertainment, Inc. ("QBQ") by the Company (the "QBQ Acquisition"), the Company
deposited into escrow 78,702 shares of Common Stock . Pursuant to the terms of
such escrow, the QBQ Escrow Shares shall be released from escrow if the
Operating Income (as defined in the agreement relating to the QBQ Acquisition)
derived from the purchased assets exceeds $1.0 million in any of the three
fiscal years (or $1.25 million in the fourth fiscal year) following the
consummation of the QBQ Acquisition.

ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

CONSULTING AGREEMENT

         The Company has entered Into a Financial Consulting Agreement with
SCMC, dated as of August 1, 1996 (the "Consulting Agreement"). In March 1997,
SCMC assigned its rights, obligations and duties under the Consulting Agreement
to TSC. Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, TSC, a principal stockholder of
the Company, has agreed to serve as the Company's financial consultant until
August 1, 2002. Robert F.X. Sillerman, the Chairman of the Company, is the
Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and controlling stockholder of SCMC and TSC,
and Howard J. Tytel, a director of the Company, is the Executive Vice President
and General Counsel of SCMC and TSC. SCMC and/or TSC have entered into similar
agreements with other companies, including companies in which Mr. Sillerman or
his affiliates have substantial interests. The Company had agreed to pay
$30,000 per month commencing in September 1997 to TSC as compensation for its
services under the Consulting Agreement. In October 1997, TSC waived its rights
to future monthly payments under the Consulting Agreement. Under the Consulting
Agreement, TSC has agreed to perform, or assist the Company in, among other
things: (i) production of financial reports and other data for the Company's
lenders and investors and as required under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act, (ii) assistance with the preparation of the Company's books and records,
(iii) the maintenance of relationships with financial institutions
participating in Company financings, (iv) the design and implementation of the
Company's accounting systems, (v) the purchase, installation and implementation
of computer hardware and software for the Company's accounting systems, (vi)
the implementation of a cash management system, (vii) the establishment of
regularized procedures for the accumulation of cash balances available for
interest and other required debt service payments, (viii) the engagement of
bookkeeping, accounting and other personnel necessary for the implementation of
the Company's accounting systems and (ix) placement of financing.

         The Consulting Agreement also provides for Special Advisory Fees to be
paid to TSC in the event of any financings or mergers and acquisitions, whether
or not such transactions are originated by TSC, although such fees are subject
to the approval of the Company's independent directors. The Company did not,
however, make any such payment to SCMC or TSC in connection with the Company's
initial public offering, the A&A Acquisition, the SMTI Acquisition or the
Private Placement. In February 1997, the Company advanced $400,000 to TSC as an
advance against Special Advisory Fees to be earned by TSC. In connection with
the ProServ Acquisition and the QBQ Acquisition, TSC received Special Advisory
Fees of $450,000 (of which $400,000 was offset against the amount previously
advanced to TSC). In connection with the tender offer, commenced in July 1997
and consummated in September 1997, by the Company for its outstanding Warrants
(the "Tender Offer"), TSC received an immediately exercisable option to
purchase 200,000 shares of Common Stock at $7.00 per share. The TSC Option
expires in 2002. Although the Special Advisory Fees paid in connection with
these acquisitions exceed those contemplated by the Consulting Agreement, the
Company's independent directors have approved such fees as an affiliated
transaction.

         The Company has also agreed to reimburse TSC for all reasonable
out-of-pocket disbursements incurred by TSC in connection with the performance
of services under the Consulting Agreement and to indemnify TSC and its
affiliates for losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of TSC's
performance of its obligations under the Consulting Agreement. In 1997, the
Company reimbursed TSC's expenses of $75,000.

         Howard J. Tytel, a director of the Company, is Of Counsel to the law
firm of Baker & McKenzie, which is counsel in certain matters to the Company,
SCMC, TSC and certain other affiliates of Mr. Sillerman, the Chairman of the
Company. Baker & McKenzie compensates Mr. Tytel based upon the fees it receives
for providing legal services to the Company and other clients introduced to the
firm by Mr. Tytel. Mr. Tytel's primary employment is as an officer of SCMC and
TSC. The Company paid Baker & McKenzie $645,000 for legal services and
disbursements during 1997.

         In January 1996, the Company entered into a month-to-month lease with
TSC providing for a monthly rent of approximately $4,000, which lease was
terminated in September 1996.

PROSERV ACQUISITION

                                     - 10 -

<PAGE>

         The Company purchased ProServ, Inc. and ProServ Television, Inc.
(collectively, "ProServ") for an aggregate purchase price of $10.8 million cash
and the issuance of 250,000 shares of Common Stock (the "ProServ Acquisition").
In connection with the acquisition, the Company repaid approximately $2.5
million of the outstanding indebtedness of ProServ. Of the $10.8 million cash
purchase price, Donald Dell received $6.5 million and William J. Allard
received approximately $643,000. In addition, Mr. Dell received the 250,000
shares of Common Stock issued in the ProServ Acquisition (the "Dell Stock
Consideration"). Messrs. Dell and Allard became directors of the Company upon
the consummation of the ProServ Acquisition.

         Mr. Dell has agreed not to offer, sell or otherwise transfer or
dispose of, directly or indirectly, 50% of the Dell Consideration Stock
(except, in certain circumstances, by gift, inheritance or pledge) for a period
of 12 months from the consummation of the purchase of his shares and the
remaining 50% of the Dell Consideration Stock for a period of 27 months from
the consummation of the purchase of his shares. The Company has granted Mr.
Dell certain demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the Dell
Consideration Stock, which, in certain situations, permit Mr. Dell to sell 100%
of the Dell Consideration Stock 12 months after the consummation of the ProServ
Acquisition.

         In addition, the Company and Mr. Dell have agreed to indemnify each
other for any losses incurred by either party as a result of the inaccuracy of
any representation or warranty or the breach of any covenant or agreement;
however, in certain circumstances, if Mr. Dell breaches the agreement, and the
Company still elects to purchase Mr. Dell's shares, then the Company's remedy
for such breach will be limited to $900,000. Mr. Dell has also agreed to
indemnify the Company for certain amounts by which ProServ's deficit in net
working capital at the time of the consummation of the purchase of Mr. Dell's
shares exceeds certain specified thresholds. The amount of such indemnity has
not been finally determined.

         The Company's stock purchase agreement with Mr. Dell provides that, at
any time within the 60 day period following the second anniversary of the
consummation of the purchase of the ProServ Acquisition, Mr. Dell's shares, Mr.
Dell may elect to transfer to the Company up to all of the remaining Dell
Consideration Stock held by Mr. Dell at a price per share equal to $7.70 (up to
approximately $1.9 million in the aggregate). In the event the Company does not
purchase the shares from Mr. Dell, Mr. Dell has certain rights to require the
Company to issue more shares of Common Stock to Mr. Dell. In addition, at any
time between the 61st and 90th day following the second anniversary of the
consummation of the purchase of Mr. Dell's shares, the Company may purchase up
to 50% of the Dell Consideration Stock held by Mr. Dell at a price per share
equal to $7.70 (up to $962,500 in the aggregate). The Company will record
charges to operations over the next two years related to the Company's
potential obligation to repurchase the Dell Consideration Stock.

         Upon the consummation of the ProServ Acquisition, the Company entered
into an employment agreement with Mr. Dell and Mr. Allard. See "Item
10--Executive Compensation--Employment Agreements."

         In connection with the ProServ Acquisition, Robert F.X. Sillerman
provided a $500,000 personal guarantee to secure the Company's obligations. In
consideration for his guarantee, the Company granted Mr. Sillerman an
immediately exercisable, five-year option to purchase 10,000 shares of Common
Stock at an exercise price per share of $5.00 and paid Mr. Sillerman $75,000,
which included $25,000 for his related legal fees and expenses.

STOCKHOLDERS' AGREEMENT

         In March 1996, the Company entered into a Stockholders' Agreement (the
"Stockholders' Agreement") with each of TSC, Robert M. Gutkowski, Arthur C.
Kaminsky, Louis J. Oppenheim, Michael Trager and Michael Letis. The
Stockholders' Agreement generally covers certain corporate governance matters.
Pursuant to the Stockholders' Agreement, TSC is entitled to nominate two
directors to the Company's Board of Directors, Messrs. Kaminsky and Oppenheim
are entitled to nominate two directors, Messrs. Trager and Letis are entitled
to nominate two directors, and Mr. Gutkowski is entitled to nominate one
director. Each of the stockholder parties to the Stockholders' Agreement (a
"Stockholder") has agreed to vote all of the shares of Common Stock owned by
such person for the election of the directors so nominated and not to take any
action to remove any director so elected (except for the director(s) nominated

                                     - 11 -

<PAGE>

by such Stockholder). In September 1997, the Stockholders' Agreement was
amended to provide for an increase in the size of the Company's Board of
Directors in order to permit the addition of Messrs. Dell and Allard upon the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the agreement relating to the
ProServ Acquisition.

         The Stockholders' Agreement will terminate upon the mutual consent of
the parties to such agreement, when there is only one Stockholder bound thereby
or March 21, 2004. In addition, the Stockholders' Agreement will terminate with
respect to a Stockholder if he dies or a guardian is appointed to oversee his
affairs or he holds less than 65% of the shares of Common Stock beneficially
owned by him on December 11, 1996 (the date of the closing of the Company's
initial public offering), provided that such Stockholder shall remain obligated
to vote his shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the
Stockholders' Agreement.

POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WITH SFX ENTERTAINMENT

         Robert F.X. Sillerman, the Chairman of the Company, is principally
employed as the Executive Chairman of, and Howard J. Tytel, a director of the
Company, serves as a director, Executive Vice President and Secretary of, SFX
Entertainment. In connection with its live entertainment business, SFX
Entertainment owns, operates or is the exclusive promoter for certain major
music venues. The Company may book musicians it represents at such venues. In
such cases, Messrs. Sillerman and Tytel may have conflicts between their
responsibilities to the Company and to SFX Entertainment.

FOUNDERS' STOCK

         In connection with the organization of the Company, in July 1995 the
Company sold 333 shares of Common Stock to Robert M. Gutkowski, the Company's
President and Chief Executive Officer, and in August 1995 the Company sold 666
shares of Common Stock to TSC, which is controlled by Robert F.X. Sillerman,
the Company's Chairman, for an aggregate purchase price of $19,980 (or
approximately $.01 per share on a post-Stock Split basis). In May 1996, the
Company sold one share of Common Stock to Martin R. Ehrlich, the Senior Vice
President of Programming of the Company, for a purchase price of $500 (or $.01
per share on a post-Stock Split basis). In August 1996, the Company increased
the number of shares outstanding by means of a stock split (the "Stock Split"),
thereby increasing the number of shares held by Mr. Gutkowski to 646,154
shares, TSC to 1,292,308 shares and Mr. Ehrlich to 50,000 shares.

ESCROW AGREEMENT

         TSC and Messrs. Gutkowski, Kaminsky, Oppenheim, Trager and Letis have
deposited an aggregate of 1,275,000 shares of Common Stock into escrow pursuant
to an escrow agreement between them, the Company and Continental Stock Transfer
& Trust Company, as escrow agent. The shares are to be released from escrow if
certain specified earnings tests are met or if the Common Stock trades at
certain specified levels during a specified period. TSC and Messrs. Gutkowski,
Kaminsky, Oppenheim, Trager and Letis retain the power to vote the shares they
have placed in escrow. See "Item 11--Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial
Owners and Management--Escrow Shares--IPO Escrow Shares."

PRIVATE PLACEMENT AND CORPORATE INDEBTEDNESS

         In August 1996 the Company consummated the private placement (the
"Private Placement") of $2,000,000 aggregate principal amount of debentures
(the "Debentures"). The $2,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Debentures
were converted into an aggregate of 666,662 IPO Units upon the consummation of
the Company's initial public offering in December 1996.

         From January 3, 1996 through September 30, 1996, Robert M. Gutkowski
made loans to the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $437,000, which
loans accrued interest at the rate of 12% per annum. The funds advanced by Mr.
Gutkowski were used by the Company for working capital purposes. In August
1996, the Company repaid $125,000 of such amount to Mr. Gutkowski from the
proceeds of the Private Placement, and Mr. Gutkowski purchased

                                     - 12 -

<PAGE>

$115,385 in principal amount of Debentures through the cancellation of an equal
portion of such indebtedness, which Debentures automatically converted upon the
consummation of the Company's initial public offering into 38,461 shares of
Common Stock and 38,461 Warrants. In September 1996 the Company repaid $76,000
of its indebtedness to Mr. Gutkowski from working capital. The Company repaid
Mr. Gutkowski's remaining balance and accrued interest in December 1997. The
investment by Mr. Gutkowski in the Private Placement was on the same terms as
the investments by the non-affiliated investors, except that Mr. Gutkowski
agreed not to sell the securities issuable upon conversion of the Debentures
during the two-year period commencing on December 5, 1996.

         From May 15, 1996 through August 12, 1996, TSC incurred expenses and
made loans to the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $196,385. The
indebtedness accrued interest at the rate of 12% per annum but the interest was
waived by TSC. The indebtedness was used by the Company for working capital
purposes, including rent payable to TSC. In August 1996, TSC purchased $230,768
in principal amount of Debentures through the payment of $34,383 and the
cancellation of such indebtedness, which Debentures automatically converted
upon the consummation of the Company's initial public offering into 76,924
shares of Common Stock and 76,924 Warrants. The investment by TSC in the
Private Placement was on the same terms as the investments by the
non-affiliated investors, except that TSC agreed not to sell the securities
issuable upon conversion of the Debentures during the two-year period
commencing on December 5, 1996.

         On May 30, 1996, Michael Trager, the Chairman of SMTI and a director
of the Company, and Michael Letis, the President of SMTI, each of whom is
currently an Executive Vice President and a director of the Company, made a
loan to the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000. The loan
accrued interest at the rate of 12% per annum but the interest was waived by
Messrs. Trager and Letis. The proceeds of the loan were used by the Company for
working capital purposes. In August 1996, Messrs. Trager and Letis each
purchased $115,385 in principal amount of Debentures through the payment of an
aggregate of $130,770 and the cancellation of the $100,000 loan, which
Debentures automatically converted upon the consummation of the Company's
initial public offering into an aggregate of 76,924 shares of Common Stock and
76,924 Warrants. The investments by Messrs. Trager and Letis in the Private
Placement were on the same terms as the investments by the non-affiliated
investors, except that Messrs. Trager and Letis each agreed not to sell the
securities issuable upon conversion of the Debentures during the two-year
period commencing on December 5, 1996.

         On August 6,1996, Louis J. Oppenheim, the Vice President of A&A and an
Executive Vice President and a director of the Company, made a loan to the
Company in the aggregate principal amount of $33,334. The loan accrued interest
at the rate of 12% per annum, but the interest was waived by Mr. Oppenheim. The
proceeds of the loan were used by the Company for working capital purposes. In
August 1996, Mr. Oppenheim purchased $57,692 in principal amount of Debentures
through the payment of $24,358 and the cancellation of the $33,334 loan, which
Debentures automatically converted upon the consummation of the Company's
initial public offering Into 19,230 shares of Common Stock and 19,230 Warrants.
The investment by Mr. Oppenheim in the Private Placement was on the same terms
as the investments by the non-affiliated investors, except that Mr. Oppenheim
agreed not to sell the securities issuable upon conversion of the Debentures
during the two-year period commencing on December 5, 1996.

         In August 1996, Arthur C. Kaminsky, the President and Chief Executive
Officer of A&A and an Executive Officer and a director of the Company,
purchased $115,385 principal amount of Debentures, which Debentures
automatically converted upon the consummation of the Company's initial public
offering into 38,461 shares of Common Stock and 38,461 Warrants. The investment
by Mr. Kaminsky in the Private Placement was on the same terms as the
investments by the non-affiliated investors, except that Mr. Kaminsky agreed
not to sell the securities issuable upon conversion of the Debentures during
the two-year period commencing on December 5, 1996.

SMTI ACQUISITION

         The Company, SMTI, Messrs. Trager, Letis, Gutkowski and TSC entered
into an acquisition agreement, amended and restated as of March 21, 1996 (the
"SMTI Acquisition Agreement"), pursuant to which a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company merged with and into SMTI on December 11, 1996, simultaneously with
the closing of the Company's

                                     - 13 -

<PAGE>

initial public offering. The aggregate purchase price paid by the Company to
Messrs. Trager and Letis, the sole stockholders of SMTI, consisted of (i)
$8,000,000 cash, of which $6,500,000 was paid at the closing and an aggregate
of $1,500,000 is payable in five equal annual installments commencing April 1,
1997 and (ii) the issuance to each of Messrs. Trager and Letis of 646,154
shares of Common Stock. The Company also entered into five-year employment
agreements with each of Messrs. Trager and Letis. See "Management-Employment
Agreements."

         From its inception until immediately prior to the completion of the
SMTI Acquisition, SMTI was treated as a closely-held corporation under
Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),
and, therefore, did not pay federal income taxes on amounts earned during such
period. Accordingly, SMTI distributed through dividends to its stockholders
substantially all of its earnings during such period. Pursuant to the SMTI
Acquisition Agreement, immediately prior to the closing of the SMTI
Acquisition, SMTI declared a dividend to Messrs. Trager and Letis of an amount
equal to 40% of the increase in SMTI's accumulated adjustments account, as
defined in the Code, which amount approximates the amount the stockholders of
SMTI expected to pay personally for income taxes based on such earnings. The
amount of such dividend was approximately $325,000 and was paid by the Company
in 1997.

         The SMTI Acquisition constituted a tax-free exchange to the extent of
the receipt of Common Stock under Section 351 of the Code.

         The Company provided services as a subcontractor for SMTI aggregating
$724,000 during the period January 1, 1996 to December 12, 1996, which was
recognized by the Company as revenues.

A&A ACQUISITION

         The Company, A&A, Messrs. Kaminsky, Oppenheim, Gutkowski and TSC
entered into an acquisition agreement, amended and restated as of March 21,
1996 (the "A&A Acquisition Agreement"), pursuant to which a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company merged with and into A&A on December 11, 1996,
simultaneously with the consummation of the Company's initial public offering.
The aggregate purchase price paid by the Company to Messrs. Kaminsky and
Oppenheim, the sole stockholders of A&A, consisted of (i) $3,500,000 cash, of
which $2,500,000 was payable at the closing and an aggregate of $1,000,000
which is payable in five equal annual installments commencing April 1, 1997 and
(ii) the issuance to Messrs. Kaminsky and Oppenheim of an aggregate of 969,231
shares of Common Stock, 646,154 of which were issued to Mr. Kaminsky and
323,076 of which were issued to Mr. Oppenheim. The Company also entered into
five-year employment agreements with each of Messrs. Kaminsky and Oppenheim.
See "Management--Employment Agreements."

         The terms of the A&A Acquisition Agreement provided that Messrs.
Kaminsky and Oppenheim were to be permitted to withdraw from A&A an amount of
money equal to the amount that A&A recovers in pending lawsuits in which it is
the plaintiff, provided, however, that such amount shall not exceed $100,000.
Messrs. Kaminsky and Oppenheim have withdrawn an aggregate of approximately
$80,000 from A&A pursuant to this provision of the A&A Acquisition Agreement
and have waived their right to withdraw any additional amount from A&A pursuant
to this provision.

         The A&A Acquisition constituted a tax-free exchange to the extent of
the receipt of Common Stock under Section 351 of the Code.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

         The Company has entered into employment agreements with Messrs.
Gutkowski, Kaminsky, Letis, Oppenheim, Trager, Dell and Allard. See "Item
10--Executive Compensation--Employment Agreements."
