of Directors upon selection of a qualified candidate.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
|
| 601 |
+
|
| 602 |
+
On April 5, 2000, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a
|
| 603 |
+
restricted stock grant to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The
|
| 604 |
+
restricted stock consists of 400,000 shares of Princeton common stock, which
|
| 605 |
+
vests on April 30, 2003. The Company expenses the fair market value of the
|
| 606 |
+
restricted stock grant over the three-year period ending April 30, 2003. The
|
| 607 |
+
Company recognized $0.3 million during fiscal 2000 as compensation expense
|
| 608 |
+
related to the stock grant. The Company estimates it will recognize $0.5 million
|
| 609 |
+
as compensation expense related to the stock grant in 2001. Princeton eCom
|
| 610 |
+
Corporation is a privately held company of which the Company owns approximately
|
| 611 |
+
42.5%.
|
| 612 |
+
|
| 613 |
+
During fiscal 2000, the Company chartered a jet airplane from a company
|
| 614 |
+
associated with Parris H. Holmes, Jr., Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive
|
| 615 |
+
Officer of the Company. Under the terms of the charter agreement, the Company
|
| 616 |
+
was obligated to pay annual minimum fees of $500,000 over the five years ending
|
| 617 |
+
March 31, 2003 for such charter services. During the fiscal year ended September
|
| 618 |
+
30, 2000, the Company paid approximately $615,000 in fees related to this
|
| 619 |
+
agreement. During the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company terminated this
|
| 620 |
+
contract with no future obligations.
|
| 621 |
+
|
| 622 |
+
On December 16, 1999, the Company made a $130,000 loan, with interest
|
| 623 |
+
accruing at the rate of 8% per annum, to W. Audie Long, Senior Vice President,
|
| 624 |
+
General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of the Company until his resignation on
|
| 625 |
+
January 15, 2001. The largest aggregate amount of indebtedness outstanding for
|
| 626 |
+
this loan (including interest) during fiscal 2000 was $133,162. This principal
|
| 627 |
+
and accrued interest, aggregating $13,162, were forgiven by the Company in April
|
| 628 |
+
2000 in lieu of a cash bonus earned in fiscal 1999.
