Director Independence

The Board of Directors has determined each of the following directors to be an “independent director” as defined in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the listing standards of the National Association of Securities Dealers (“the NASD listing standards”): E. Bruce Fredrikson, Abraham Biderman, Phillip Ort and Shaya Sofer.

Controlled Company Exemption

The Company is a Controlled Company as defined in NASDAQ’s Stock Market Rule 4350(c)(5) as the Company is owned more than 50% by one individual. Accordingly, a majority of independent directors is not required to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors held four meetings during the year ended December 31, 2006. During 2006, each director attended in excess of 75% of both (i) the total number of board meetings held during the period for which he was a director and (ii) the total number of meetings of each committee of the board on which the director served during the period for which he was on the committee. The Company does not have a policy requiring incumbent directors and director nominees to attend the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders. All directors attended last year's annual meeting.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Company has a separately designated standing audit committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. Serving on the Committee are Dr. E. Bruce Fredrikson, Abraham Biderman and Philip Ort. The Board of Directors has determined that it has an audit committee financial expert serving on the audit committee, Abraham Biderman. Mr. Biderman is an independent director as defined in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A. The function of the Audit Committee is to make recommendations concerning the selection each year of independent auditors of the Company, to review the effectiveness of the Company's internal accounting methods and procedures, to consider whether the principal accountant’s provision of non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence and to determine through discussions with the independent auditors whether any instructions or limitations have been placed upon them in connection with the scope of their audit or its implementation. The Audit Committee met four times during 2006. The Board of Directors has determined that the members of the Audit Committee are "independent" as defined in NASDAQ Stock Market’s Marketplace Rule 4200.

The Board of Directors does not have a Compensation Committee. In accordance with NASDAQ Stock Market’s Marketplace Rule 4200, a majority of “independent” directors is required to recommend and approve the compensation of executive officers.

The Company does not have a standing Nominating Committee. Due to the size of the Company and the resulting efficiency of a Board of Directors that is also limited in size, as well as the lack of turnover in the Company’s Board of Directors, the Board of Directors has determined that it is not necessary or appropriate at this time to establish a separate Nominating Committee. Potential candidates are discussed by the entire Board of Directors, and director nominees are selected by Board of Director resolution subject to the recommendation of a majority of the independent directors. All of the nominees recommended for election to the Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting are directors standing for re-election. Although the Board of Directors has not established any minimum qualifications for director candidates, when considering potential director candidates, the Board considers the candidate's character, judgment, diversity, skills, including financial literacy, and experience in the context of the needs of the Company and the Board of Directors. In 2006, the Company did not pay any fees to any third party to assist in identifying or evaluating potential nominees.

The Board of Directors will consider director candidates recommended by the Company’s stockholders in a similar manner as those recommended by members of management or other directors, provided the stockholder submitting such nomination has provided such recommendation on a timely basis as described in “Proposals of Stockholders” below. To date, the Company has not received any recommended nominees from any non-management stockholder or group of stockholders that beneficially owns five percent of its voting stock.

Report of the Audit Committee

The following report of the Audit Committee does not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other Company filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates this Report by reference therein.

The responsibilities of the Audit Committee, which are set forth in the Audit Committee Charter, include providing oversight to the Company's financial reporting process through periodic meetings with the Company’s independent accountants and management to review accounting, auditing, internal controls and financial reporting matters. The Audit Committee is also responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the Company’s independent auditors. The management of the Company is responsible for the preparation and integrity of the financial reporting information and related systems of internal controls. The Audit Committee, in carrying out its role, relies on the Company's senior management, including senior financial management, and its independent accountants.

The Audit Committee has implemented procedures to ensure that during the course of each fiscal year it devotes the attention that it deems necessary or appropriate to each of the matters assigned to it under the Audit Committee’s Charter. To carry out its responsibilities, the Audit Committee met four times during fiscal 2006.

The primary purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities relating to the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial reports and financial reporting processes and systems of internal controls. Management of the Company has primary responsibility for the Company’s financial statements and the overall reporting process, including maintenance of the Company’s system of internal controls. The Company retains independent auditors who are responsible for conducting an independent audit of the Company’s financial statements, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and issuing a report thereon.

In performing its duties, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management and the Company’s independent auditors. The Audit Committee has also discussed with the Company's independent auditors, the matters required to be discussed by Statement of Auditing Standards ("SAS") No. 61, "Communications with Audit Committee." SAS No. 61 requires the independent auditors to provide the Audit Committee with additional information regarding the scope and results of their audit of the Company’s financial statements, including with respect to (i) their responsibility under auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, (ii) significant accounting policies, (iii) management judgments and estimates, (iv) any significant audit adjustments, (v) any disagreements with management, and (vi) any difficulties encountered in performing the audit. In addition, the Audit Committee received written disclosures and the letter from the independent auditors required by Independence Standards Board Statement No. 1, "Independence Discussions with Audit Committees." The independent auditors have discussed its independence with the Audit Committee, and has confirmed to us that, in its professional judgment, it is independent of the Company within the meaning of the federal securities laws.

On the basis of the foregoing reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Audit Committee has also recommended, subject to shareholder approval, the selection of the Company's independent auditors.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

This compensation discussion describes the material elements of compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid to each of our executive officers who served as named executive officers during the last completed fiscal year. This compensation discussion focuses on the information contained in the following tables and related footnotes and narrative for primarily the last completed fiscal year. Our Board oversaw and administered our executive compensation program. There is no compensation committee.

The principal elements of our executive compensation program are base salary and long-term equity incentives in the form of stock options. Other benefits and perquisites consist of health insurance benefits, a qualified 401(k) savings plan. Our philosophy is to position the aggregate of these elements at a level that is commensurate with our size and sustained performance.

Compensation Program Objectives and Philosophy

In General. The objectives of our compensation programs are to attract, motivate and retain talented and dedicated executive officers, provide our executive officers with both cash and equity incentives to further the interests of the Company and our stockholders, and provide employees with long-term incentives so we can retain them.

Generally, the compensation of our executive officers is composed of a base salary and equity awards in the form of stock options. In setting base salaries, the Board generally reviewed the individual contributions of the particular executive. In addition, stock options are granted to provide the opportunity for long-term compensation based upon the performance of our common stock over time.

Competitive Market. We define our competitive market for executive talent and investment capital to be the technology and business services industries. To date, we have not engaged in the benchmarking of executive compensation but we may choose to do so in the future.

Compensation Process. Our Board approved the compensation of our named executive officers taking into consideration recommendations from our principal executive officer (for compensation other than his own), as well as competitive market guidance.

Regulatory Considerations. Given the compensation cost to us of awarding stock options under recent accounting pronouncements, we will consider the size and frequency of any future stock option awards under our long-term equity incentive program.

Base Salaries

In General. We provide the opportunity for our named executive officers and other executives to earn a competitive annual base salary. We provide this opportunity to attract and retain an appropriate caliber of talent for the position, and to provide a base wage that is not subject to performance risk. We review base salaries for our named executive officers annually and increases are based on our performance and individual performance. The salary of our principal executive officer was set by our Board at $303,000 for 2007, the same rate as in 2006. Our Board also approved no increase in compensation for 2007 from the annual base salary rate from 2006 for Mr. Stern – $154,500; Mr. Hertz - $454,500 and an increase for Mr. Drillick from $165,000 to $166,000.

Total Compensation Comparison. No options were awarded to executive officers in 2006 and, except for a $9,000 bonus awarded to Mr. Drillick, base salary represented total compensation for executive officers.

Annual Cash Incentives

In General. There are no programs presently in place to provide the opportunity for our named executive officers and other executives to earn an annual cash incentive award. There are no specific individual performance goals for 2006 incentive awards, but the Board may exercise discretion and take into account individual and corporate performance in determining awards.

Long-term Equity Incentives

In General. We provide the opportunity for our named executive officers and other executives to earn a long-term equity incentive award. Long-term incentive awards provide employees with the incentive to stay with us for longer periods of time, which in turn, provides us with greater stability. These awards also are less costly to us in the short term than cash compensation. We review long-term equity incentives for our named executive officers and other executives annually.

Stock Options. For our named executive officers, our stock option program is based on grants that are individually negotiated. We have traditionally used stock options as our form of equity compensation because stock options provide a relatively straightforward incentive for our executives, result in less immediate dilution of existing shareholders’ interests and, prior to our adoption of FAS 123(R), resulted in less compensation expense for us relative to other types of equity awards. For a discussion of the determination of the fair market value of these grants, see Note A to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Board granted options at the end of 2005 and there were no new grants in 2006 to our named executive officers.

We do not time stock option grants to executives in coordination with the release of material non-public information. Our stock options have a 5-year contractual exercise term. In general, the option grants are also subject to the following post-termination and change in control provisions:

Event	Award Vesting	Exercise Term

Termination by Us for Reason Other than Cause, Disability or Death	Forfeit Unvested	Vested – 30 days

Disability or Death	Forfeit Unvested	Vested – 12 months

Termination for Cause	Forfeit Vested and Unvested	Expire

Change in Control	Not accelerated, comparable substitute, if necessary	Unchanged

Executive Benefits and Perquisites

We provide the opportunity for our named executive officers and other executives to receive certain perquisites and general health and welfare benefits. We also offer participation in our defined contribution 401(k) plan. We do not match employee contributions for executive officers under our 401(k) plan. We provide these benefits to provide an additional incentive for our executives and to remain competitive in the general marketplace for executive talent. For the last completed fiscal year, we provided the following personal benefits and perquisites to our named executives officers: the Company pays a portion of medical insurance premiums, and, in 2007, will pay long term healthcare insurance for Messrs. Hertz, Kaye and Stern.

The following table sets forth information with respect to compensation paid by the Company for services to it during the year ended December 31, 2006 to the Company's Chief Executive Officer and to the executive officers whose aggregate annual salary and bonus exceeded $100,000 in 2006.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The Company leases its executive office facilities in Brooklyn from a limited partnership owned by the Company’s Principal Stockholder and members of his family. The Company paid the partnership rent of $630,000 and $623,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The lease provided for the Company to pay $630,000 per annum through April 1, 2006. The Company has since paid at the same rate without a lease.

In connection with the Company's arbitrage trading program, the Company's Principal Stockholder pledged approximately 1.8 million shares of his holdings of the Company's common stock as additional collateral for the arbitrage trading accounts.

Such payments aggregated $42,000 and $44,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The Company's Principal Stockholder had a margin loan of approximately $3 million as a customer of the Company's broker-dealer that was collateralized by 2.5 million of the Company's shares owned by him. The loan was repaid in November 2005.
