(1) Value is determined by subtracting the exercise price from the fair
market value (the closing price for the Company's Common Stock as
reported by the Nasdaq National Market) as of December 21, 1995 (the
date that the options were exercised) which was $6.75 and multiplying
the resulting number by the number of underlying shares of Common
Stock.
(2) Value is determined by subtracting the exercise price from the fair

per share) and multiplying the resulting number by the number of

The Company has not entered into employment agreements with any of the
officers named in the foregoing tables. Consequently, there is no agreement or
policy which would result in any such named officer being entitled to severance
payments or any other compensation as a result of such officer's termination.
ASSOCIATE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company maintains a Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (the "Profit
Sharing Plan"), which qualifies under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Profit Sharing Plan provides that
associates who meet a six-month service requirement automatically become
participants. Each fiscal year, the Company, at its discretion, makes a
contribution to the Profit Sharing Plan. The Company may contribute Class A
Common Stock or cash to the Profit Sharing Plan. These contributions are
allocated to separate accounts of the participants in proportion to their
relative compensation, and are held in trust and invested. Participant
accounts are credited with investment gains and losses. Vesting depends on the
participant's years of service, with contributions being fully vested after the
participant has five years of service. When an associate leaves the Company,
his account under the Profit Sharing Plan, if vested, becomes distributable in
a lump sum or over a period of time, at the discretion of the Profit Sharing
Plan Administrator. No contributions were made to the Profit Sharing Plan for
fiscal years 1995, 1994, and 1993.
The Profit Sharing Plan also includes the Odetics, Inc. 401(k) Plan
(the "401(k) Plan"). Under the 401(k) Plan, associates with at least six
months of service with the Company or any subsidiary may elect to defer up to
15% of their annual compensation not to exceed limits set by the Code. The
maximum deferral for calendar year 1995 is $9,140.
5
The Company maintains an Associate Stock Ownership Plan (the "ASOP"),
which qualifies under Section 401 of the Code. The ASOP provides that
associates who meet a six-month service requirement automatically become
participants. Each fiscal year, the Company, at its discretion, makes a
contribution to the ASOP. The Company may contribute Class A Common Stock, or
the cash to buy Class A Common Stock. These contributions are allocated to
separate accounts of the participants in proportion to their relative
compensation, and are held in trust. Vesting depends on the participant's
years of service, with contributions being fully vested after the participant
has five years of service. When an associate leaves the Company, his account
under the ASOP, if vested, is distributed in shares of Class A Common Stock.
The Company did not contribute any shares of Class A Common Stock to the ASOP
for fiscal year 1995.
The Company maintains an Executive Deferral Plan (the "Deferral Plan")
which is intended to provide deferred compensation benefits to designated
executives of the Company who contribute to the Company's growth and success.
Eligible executives may elect to defer up to 75%, but not less than $5,000, of
their annual compensation. Participation in the Deferral Plan is voluntary and
may be discontinued at any time. Payment of benefits commences upon the
retirement, death, disability of termination of employment of a participating
executive.
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
No directors of the Company other than those identified above as
members of the Compensation Committee served on that Committee during fiscal
1995. No member of the Compensation Committee was an officer or employee of
the Company or its subsidiary during fiscal 1995. None of the executive
officers of the Company has served on the Board of Directors or on the
compensation committee of any other entity, any of whose officers served either
on the Board of Directors or on the Compensation Committee of the Company.
