The above table sets forth the estimated annual retirement benefits payable under the Company's retirement plan to its regular employees, including officers, in the final average earnings and years of service classifications indicated. The retirement plan is funded solely by the Company. Benefits normally are paid in the form of a straight life annuity or joint and survivor annuity and are not subject to any deduction for Social Security or other offset amounts. Annual compensation used to determine final average earnings under the plan includes salary, as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table, commissions, and, with respect to employees earning a salary less than a stated amount (which for 1995 was $66,000), bonus payments. Compensation covered by the plan for 1995 was as follows: Mr. Adkins - $219,500; Mr. Schimkaitis - $152,250; Mr. Barefoot - $102,000; and Mr. West - $128,500. The calculation of benefits under the plan generally is based on average earnings for the highest five consecutive years of the ten years preceding retirement.
