The Company has never declared nor paid any cash dividends on its common stock. In February 1993, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of up to 156,416 shares designated as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, with a cumulative dividend of 7% during the first year and 8% thereafter, payable either in cash or by the issuance of shares of common stock. 112,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) were issued on February 16, 1993 in partial payment of the purchase price for Spring Grove. Except for payment of dividends on the Preferred Stock, the Company intends to retain all earnings for use in the Company’s business and therefore does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future. The Company’s bank credit agreements contain financial covenants which may effectively restrict or limit the payment of dividends other than Preferred Stock dividends.
