 2. We note your response to comment two in our letter dated March 21, 2013.  Please revise
the summary compensation table provided in your response to include the requisite
information for Russell  Lawrence since the compensation he received for all services
rendered in all capacities to the company (including for his services as a director) appears
to have been in excess of $100,000.  Please also revise the summary compensation table
to include inf ormation regarding the restricted stock awards received by John C.
Lawrence and Russell Lawrence for their services as directors.  Additionally, please
advise us why the summary compensation table included in the Form 10 -K filed on
March 14, 2012 included substantial amounts in an “All Other Payouts” column and the
summary compensation table provided in your response does not appear to include such
amounts in the total compensation , as previously requested.
