current Non-Employee Director elected for the first time to the board will
receive a one-time grant of options to purchase 15,000 shares of Common Stock,
and beginning with the Company's 1998 annual meeting, the Company anticipates
that each Non-Employee Director will receive an additional grant of options to
purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock on the date of each stockholder vote
regarding election of directors. All such options will be granted at an exercise
price per share equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the
date of grant.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

     The Company has entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Taylor and
Chambers that provide for current annual base salaries of $275,000 and $175,000,
respectively. The agreements expire on December 31, 1999. Mr. Taylor's agreement
provides for minimum cash bonuses of $15,000, $17,500 and $20,000 for calendar
years ending 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively, and for discretionary bonuses.
Mr. Chambers' agreement provides for minimum cash bonuses of $5,000, $7,500 and
$10,000 for calendar years ending 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively, and for
discretionary bonuses. Messrs. Taylor and Chambers are entitled to participate
in the

                                        5

Company's incentive plan (the "Plan") and may receive benefits under such Plan
in an amount of up to 100% of base salary. If the employment agreements of
Messrs. Taylor and Chambers are terminated without cause prior to the end of the
term of those agreements, the Company must pay an amount equal to the employee's
base salary and guaranteed bonuses for the remainder of the term of the
employment agreement. If the agreements of Messrs. Taylor and Chambers are
terminated with cause prior to the end of the term of those agreements, the
Company is obligated to pay an amount equal to the employee's base salary
accrued to the date of discharge. In addition, the agreements provide that upon
termination of employment, the terminated officer will be prohibited from
competing with the Company for a period of two years. Mr. McKnight is also a
party to an employment agreement which expires in December 1998, which provides
for an annual salary of $150,000, as well as terms and severance arrangement
similar to those in Mr. Taylor's and Mr. Chambers agreements.

         In July 1997, in connection with the acquisition of Morning Sun, Inc.,
the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Klein that provides
for a current annual base salary of $250,000. The agreement expires on July 1,
2000. Mr. Klein's agreement entitles him to participate in the Plan and to
receive benefits under such Plan in an amount of up to 100% of his base salary.
In addition, Mr. Klein may receive discretionary bonuses, and his employment
agreement provided for the grant on the date of the agreement of options to
purchase 45,000 shares of the common stock of the Company. Mr. Klein's options
vest 33 1/3% per year for three years beginning on the date of grant. If Mr.
Klein's employment agreement is terminated without cause prior to the end of the
term of that agreement, the Company must pay an amount equal to base salary for
the one-year period following such termination, plus the pro rata portion of the
bonus under the Plan through such termination. If the agreement is terminated
with cause prior to the end of its term, the Company is obligated to pay an
amount equal to the base salary accrued to the date of discharge. In addition,
the agreement provides that upon termination of employment, Mr. Klein will be
prohibited from competing with the Company for a period of one year.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     In April 1997, the Company entered into a financial advisory agreement with
SMM pursuant to which SMM agreed to provide certain financial advisory services
to the Company. The agreement provides for payments to SMM in the amount of
$10,000 per month, for a period of 12 months, but the Company has the right to
terminate the agreement after the cumulative payment to SMM of $60,000. SMM also
received a lump sum success fee of $50,000 in connection with the Company's
acquisition of all of the capital stock of SolarCo, Inc., the parent of Morning
Sun (the "Morning Sun Acquisition"). In connection with the public offering of
10 1/2% of Senior Notes due 2007 (the "Offering"), SMM received an amount equal
to the product of 0.25% multiplied by the gross proceeds of the Offering, which
amounted to $250,000. SMM agreed to forego, after completion of the Offering,
the $50,000 contingent lump sum success fee payable by the Company in connection
with the Morning Sun Acquisition.

     Mr. Klein was a shareholder of Morning Sun, Inc. and in consideration for
the sale of his shares to the Company, he received 73,171 shares of Company
common stock and cash in the amount of $1,339,882.

     A subsidiary of the Company leases a 88,625 square foot office and
production facility in College Station, Texas, from a partnership whose owners
include corporations in which Equus II and Messrs. Taylor, Chambers, Chadwick,
McKnight and Warny have an ownership interest. The two leases are for a ten-year
term expiring 2002 and provide for aggregate monthly lease payments of $18,500.

     Management is of the opinion that all the transactions described were on
terms at least as favorable as could have been obtained from unaffiliated third
parties.
