ITEM 1: BUSINESS.
NAPCO Security Technologies, Inc. ("NAPCO" or the "Company") was incorporated in December 1971 in the State of Delaware. Its executive offices are located at 333 Bayview Ave, Amityville NY 11701. Its telephone number is (631) 842-9400.
The Company is a diversified manufacturer of security products, encompassing intrusion and fire alarms, building access control systems and electronic locking devices. These products are used for commercial, residential, institutional, industrial and governmental applications, and are sold worldwide principally to independent distributors, dealers and installers of security equipment. On August 18, 2008, the Company, through the formation of a new subsidiary, Marks USA I, LLC ("Marks"), acquired substantially all of the assets and business of G. Marks Hardware, Inc. for $25.2 million, the repayment of $1 million of bank debt and the assumption of certain current liabilities. The Marks business involves the manufacturing and distribution of door-locking devices.
Website Access to Company Reports
Copies of our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to these reports) are available free of charge on our website (www.napcosecurity.com) on the same day they are electronically filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Acquisition
On August 18, 2008, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and business of Marks for $25.2 million, the repayment of $1 million of bank debt and the assumption of certain current liabilities. In August 2009, the Company completed the move of all operations of Marks to its Dominican plant and into the Company's corporate headquarters in Amityville. The Marks business involves the manufacturing and distribution of door-locking devices.
Restructuring Costs
In March 2009, the Company began a Restructuring Plan consisting of a series of actions to consolidate its Sales, Production and Warehousing operations of Marks and those in Europe and the Middle East into the Corporate Headquarters in Amityville, NY and its production facility in the Dominican Republic. The majority of these actions have been completed by June 30, 2010, while certain remaining Production-related actions are expected to be completed by December 31, 2010. Accordingly, the Company recognized restructuring costs of $1,274,000 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. Of this amount, $210,000 relates to Workforce Reductions communicated in March 2009 and $1,064,000 to Business Exits and related costs associated with inventory and lease impairments related to the closure of the Marks, European and Middle East facilities. As of June 30, 2010, $1,138,000 of the $1,274,000 in restructuring costs has been paid and $136,000 remains in accrued expenses.
Products
Access Control Systems. Access control systems consist of one or more of the following: various types of identification readers (e.g. card readers, hand scanners, etc.), a control panel, a PC-based computer and electronically activated door-locking devices. When an identification card or other identifying information is entered into the reader, the information is transmitted to the control panel/PC which then validates the data and determines whether to grant access or not by electronically deactivating the door locking device. An electronic log is kept which records various types of data regarding access activity.
The Company designs, engineers, manufactures and markets the software and control panels discussed above. It also buys and resells various identification readers, PC-based computers and various peripheral equipment for access control systems.
Alarm Systems. Alarm systems usually consist of various detectors, a control panel, a digital keypad and signaling equipment. When a break-in occurs, an intrusion detector senses the intrusion and activates a control panel via hard-wired or wireless transmission that sets off the signaling equipment and, in most cases, causes a bell or siren to sound. Communication equipment such as a digital communicator may be used to transmit the alarm signal to a central station or another person selected by a customer.
The Company manufactures and markets the following products for alarm systems:
Automatic Communicators. When a control panel is activated by a signal from an intrusion detector, it activates a communicator that can automatically dial one or more pre-designated telephone numbers. If programmed to do so, a digital communicator dials the telephone number of a central monitoring station and communicates in computer language to a digital communicator receiver, which prints out an alarm message.
Control Panels. A control panel is the "brain" of an alarm system. When activated by any one of the various types of intrusion detectors, it can activate an audible alarm and/or various types of communication devices. For marketing purposes, the Company refers to its control panels by the trade name, generally "Gemini(TM)" and "Magnum Alert(TM)" followed by a numerical designation.
Combination Control Panels/Digital Communicators and Digital Keypad Systems. A combination control panel, digital communicator and a digital keypad (a plate with push button numbers as on a telephone, which eliminates the need for mechanical keys) has continued to grow rapidly in terms of dealer and consumer preference. Benefits of the combination format include the cost efficiency resulting from a single microcomputer function, as well as the reliability and ease of installation gained from the simplicity and sophistication of micro-computer technology.
Door Security Devices. The Company manufactures a variety of exit alarm locks including simple dead bolt locks, door alarms and microprocessor-based electronic door locks with push button and card reader operation.
Fire Alarm Control Panel. Multi-zone fire alarm control panels, which accommodate an optional digital communicator for reporting to a central station, are also manufactured by the Company.
Area Detectors. The Company's area detectors are both passive infrared heat detectors and combination microwave/passive infrared detectors that are linked to alarm control panels. Passive infrared heat detectors respond to the change in heat patterns caused by an intruder moving within a protected area. Combination units respond to both changes in heat patterns and changes in microwave patterns occurring at the same time.
Video surveillance systems typically consist of one or more video cameras, a control panel and a video monitor or PC. More advanced systems can also include a recording device and some type of remote communication device such as an internet connection to a PC or browser-enabled cell phone. The system allows the user to monitor various locations at once while recorders save the video images for future use. Remote communication devices can allow the user to view and control the system from a remote location.
The Company designs, engineers, and markets the software and control panels discussed above. It also buys and resells various video cameras, PC-based computers and peripheral equipment for video surveillance Systems.
Peripheral Equipment
The Company also markets peripheral and related equipment manufactured by other companies. Revenues from peripheral equipment have not been significant.
Research and Development
The Company's business involves a high technology element. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company expended approximately $4,922,000 and $5,116,000, respectively, on Company-sponsored research and development activities conducted by its engineering department to develop and improve the Products. The Company intends to continue to conduct a significant portion of its future research and development activities internally.
Employees
As of June 30, 2010, the Company had approximately 1,003 full-time employees.
Marketing
The Company's staff of 43 sales and marketing support employees located at the Company's Amityville and United Kingdom offices sells and markets the Products primarily to independent distributors and wholesalers of security alarm and security hardware equipment. Management estimates that these channels of distribution represented approximately 49% of the Company's total sales for each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. The remaining revenues are primarily from installers and governmental institutions. The Company's sales representatives periodically contact existing and potential customers to introduce new products and create demand for those as well as other Company products. These sales representatives, together with the Company's technical personnel, provide training and other services to wholesalers and distributors so that they can better service the needs of their customers. In addition to direct sales efforts, the Company advertises in technical trade publications and participates in trade shows in major United States and European cities. Some of the Company's products are marketed under the "private label" of certain customers.
In the ordinary course of the Company's business the Company grants extended payment terms to certain customers. For further discussion on Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk see disclosures included in Item 7.
Competition
The security alarm products industry is highly competitive. The Company's primary competitors are comprised of approximately 20 other companies that manufacture and market security equipment to distributors, dealers, central stations and original equipment manufacturers. The Company believes that no one of these competitors is dominant in the industry. Certain of these companies have substantially greater financial and other resources than the Company.
The Company competes primarily on the basis of the features, quality, reliability and pricing of, and the incorporation of the latest innovative and technological advances into, its Products. The Company also competes by offering technical support services to its customers. In addition, the Company competes on the basis of its expertise, its proven products, its reputation and its ability to provide Products to customers on a timely basis. The inability of the Company to compete with respect to any one or more of the aforementioned factors could have an adverse impact on the Company's business. Relatively low-priced "do-it-yourself" alarm system products have become available in recent years and are available to the public at retail stores. The principal components in the Company's products are integrated circuits, printed circuit boards, microprocessors, sheet metal, plastic resin, machined and cast metal components. The Company believes that these products compete with the Company only to a limited extent because they appeal primarily to the "do-it-yourself" segment of the market. Purchasers of such systems do not receive professional consultation, installation, service or the sophistication that the Company's Products provide.
Seasonality
The Company's fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. Historically, the end users of Napco's products want to install its products prior to the summer; therefore sales of its products historically peak in the period April 1 through June 30, the Company's fiscal fourth quarter, and are reduced in the period July 1 through September 30, the Company's fiscal first quarter. To a lesser degree, sales in Europe are also adversely impacted in the Company's first fiscal quarter because of European vacation patterns, i.e., many distributors and installers are closed for the month of August. In addition, demand is affected by the housing and construction markets. The severity of the current economic downturn may also affect this trend.
Raw Materials
The Company prepares specifications for component parts used in the Products and purchases the components from outside sources or fabricates the components itself. These components, if standard, are generally readily available; if specially designed for the Company, there is usually more than one alternative source of supply available to the Company on a competitive basis. The Company generally maintains inventories of all critical components. The Company for the most part is not dependent on any one source for its raw materials.
Sales Backlog
In general, orders for the Products are processed by the Company from inventory. A sales backlog of approximately $2,236,000 and $1,554,000 existed as of June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company expects to fill all of the backlog that existed as of June 30, 2010 during fiscal 2011.
Government Regulation
The Company's telephone dialers, microwave transmitting devices utilized in its motion detectors and any new communication equipment that may be introduced from time to time by the Company must comply with standards promulgated by the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") in the United States and similar agencies in other countries where the Company offers such products, specifying permitted frequency bands of operation, permitted power output and periods of operation, as well as compatibility with telephone lines. Each new Product that is subject to such regulation must be tested for compliance with FCC standards or the standards of such similar governmental agencies. Test reports are submitted to the FCC or such similar agencies for approval. Cost of compliance with these regulations has not been material.
Patents and Trademarks
The Company has been granted several patents and trademarks relating to the Products. While the Company obtains patents and trademarks as it deems appropriate, the Company does not believe that its current or future success is dependent on its patents or trademarks.
Foreign Sales
The revenues and identifiable assets attributable to the Company's domestic and foreign operations for its last two fiscal years are summarized in the following table:

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS.
The risks described below are among those that could materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. These risks could cause actual results to differ materially from historical experience and from results predicted by any forward-looking statements related to conditions or events that may occur in the future.
We are subject to the effects of general economic and market conditions. If these conditions deteriorate, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, since October 2008, the U.S. and international economies have experienced a significant downturn and continue to be very volatile. In the event that the downturn in the U.S. or international economies is prolonged or worsens, our revenue levels could be further materially adversely affected in future periods. If the current worldwide economic downturn continues or worsens, many of our current or potential future customers may experience serious cash flow problems and as a result may, modify, delay or cancel purchases of our products. Additionally, customers may not be able to pay, or may delay payment of, accounts receivable that are owed to us. Furthermore, the current downturn and market instability makes it difficult for us to forecast our revenues.
Our business is dependent on maintaining the financing used in the Marks acquisition and to fund operations. The current debt facilities provide for certain minimum payments on the Marks term loan and financial covenants relating to ratios affected by profit, asset and debt levels. The Company is not in compliance with several of the covenants in the current facilities. The Company and its banks have been in negotiations to amend and restate the existing terms of the credit facilities and term loan. The Company and its banks have agreed in principle on all the key terms and modifications to the existing revolving credit agreement and term loan. This agreement would include waivers of the existing non-compliance. The restated facilities would provide for restructured covenants that reflect the Company's current financial condition. However, if the Company does not consummate these new facilities or if profits, asset or cash-flow levels decline below the minimums required to meet these covenants or make the minimum debt payments, the debt facilities may be materially adversely affected. Effects on the Company's financing could include higher interest costs, reduction in borrowing availability or revocation of these credit facilities.
While Management has begun implementation of a restructuring plan to reduce expense levels relative to current sales levels, if this plan is delayed, not completed or sales levels decrease further, our business may be adversely affected.
We are subject to the effects of housing and commercial building market conditions. If these conditions continue to deteriorate, resulting in a further decline in new housing or commercial building starts, existing home or commercial building sales or renovations, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be materially adversely affected beyond the current levels, particularly in our intrusion and door locking product lines.
Our revenue and profitability depend on the overall demand for our products. Continued or worsening delays or reductions in spending, domestically or internationally, for electronic security systems could further materially adversely affect demand for our products, which could result in decreased revenues or earnings.
We compete with approximately 20 other companies that manufacture and market security equipment to distributors, dealers, control stations and original equipment manufacturers. Some of these companies may have substantially greater financial and other resources than the Company. The Company competes primarily on the basis of the features, quality, reliability and pricing of, and the incorporation of the latest innovative and technological advances into, its products. The Company also competes by offering technical support services to its customers. In addition, the Company competes on the basis of its expertise, its proven products, its reputation and its ability to provide products to customers on a timely basis. The inability of the Company to compete with respect to any one or more of the aforementioned factors could have an adverse impact on the Company's business.
We regularly grant credit terms beyond 30 days to our customers. These terms are offered in an effort to keep a full line of our products in-stock at our customers' locations. The longer terms that are granted, the more risk is inherent in collection of those receivables. We believe that our Bad Debt reserves are adequate to account for this inherent risk.
Our business may be materially adversely affected by the announcement or introduction of new products and services by our competitors, and the implementation of effective marketing or sales strategies by our competitors. There can be no assurance that competitors will not develop products that are superior to the Company's products. Further, there can be no assurance that the Company will not experience additional price competition, and that such competition may not adversely affect the Company's position and results of operations.
The industry in which the Company operates is characterized by constantly improved products. Future success will depend, in part, on our ability to continue to develop and market products and product enhancements cost-effectively, which will require continued expenditures for product engineering, sales and marketing. The Company's research and development expenditures, which were $4,922,000 and $5,116,000 for 2010 and 2009, respectively, are principally targeted at enhancing existing products, and to a lesser extent at developing new ones. If the Company cannot modify its products to meet its customers' changing needs, we may lose sales.
We distribute our products primarily through independent distributors and wholesalers of security alarm and security hardware equipment. Our distributors and wholesalers also sell our competitors' products, and if they favor our competitors' products for any reason, they may fail to market our products as effectively or to devote resources necessary to provide effective sales, which would cause our results to suffer. In addition, the financial health of these distributors and wholesalers and our continuing relationships with them are important to our success. Some of these distributors and wholesalers may be unable to withstand adverse changes in business conditions. Our business could be seriously harmed if the financial condition of some of these distributors and wholesalers substantially weakens.
Richard L. Soloway, our Chief Executive Officer, members of management and the Board of Directors beneficially own 31.4% of the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock. By virtue of such ownership and their positions with Napco, they may have the practical ability to determine the election of all directors and control the outcome of substantially all matters submitted to Napco's stockholders.
In addition, Napco has a staggered Board of Directors. Such concentration of ownership and the staggered Board could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or discourage a third party from seeking to acquire, control of Napco.
The success of the Company is largely dependent on the efforts of Richard L. Soloway, Chief Executive Officer. The loss of his services could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and prospects. There is currently no succession plan.
We are exposed to foreign currency risks due to our significant operations in the Dominican Republic. We have significant operations in the Dominican Republic which are denominated in Dominican pesos. We are subject to the risk that currency exchange rates between the United States and the Dominican Republic will fluctuate, potentially resulting in an increase in some of our expenses when US dollars are transferred to Dominican pesos to pay these expenses.
Our business is dependent on the orderly, effective integration of the acquired Marks business, technologies, product lines and employees into our organization. If this integration is unsuccessful, our business may be materially adversely affected.
The Marks acquisition requires quarterly principal debt repayments of approximately $893,000, plus interest, that are in addition to the Company's historical cash-flow requirements. A significant decline in the Company's earnings or cashflows could put at risk the Company's ability to repay this debt as well as to failing to meet certain financial covenants within the existing Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term Loan.
ITEM 1B: UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.
Not applicable.
ITEM 2: PROPERTIES.
The Company owns executive offices and production and warehousing facilities at 333 Bayview Avenue, Amityville, New York. This facility consists of a fully-utilized 90,000 square foot building on a six acre plot. This six-acre plot provides the Company with space for expansion of office, manufacturing and storage capacities. In March 2009, the Company began a Restructuring Plan, as described in Note 14, which includes consolidating the operations of Marks from the leased building described below into the Corporate Headquarters in Amityville, NY and its production facility in the Dominican Republic. The move from the leased building described below was completed in August 2009, prior to the expiration of the lease. The Marks business involves the manufacturing and distribution of door-locking devices.
The Company leased a building of approximately 35,000 square feet in Amityville, NY. This facility provided all of the administrative, production and warehousing space for the Company's recent Marks acquisition. The lease commenced in August 2008 and expired in August 2009.
The Company's foreign subsidiary located in the Dominican Republic, Napco DR, S.A. (formerly known as NAPCO/Alarm Lock Grupo International, S.A.), owns a building of approximately 167,000 square feet of production and warehousing space in the Dominican Republic. That subsidiary also leases the land associated with this building under a 99-year lease expiring in the year 2092. As of June 30, 2010, a majority of the Company's products were manufactured at this facility, utilizing U.S. quality control standards.
The Company's foreign subsidiary located in the United Kingdom, Napco Group Europe Ltd, leases office space of approximately 167 square feet. This lease expires in January 2011.
The Company's former sales office located in the United Arab Emirates leased office space of approximately 500 square feet. This lease expired in June 2010. The Company has closed this office as part of its restructuring and, accordingly, did not renew this lease.
Management believes that these facilities are more than adequate to meet the needs of the Company in the foreseeable future.
ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
There are no pending or threatened material legal proceedings to which NAPCO or its subsidiaries or any of their property is subject.
In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to claims and/or litigation. Management believes that the settlement of such claims and/or litigation, considered in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

ITEM 7: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Overview
The Company is a diversified manufacturer of security products, encompassing intrusion and fire alarms, building access control systems and electronic locking devices. These products are used for commercial, residential, institutional, industrial and governmental applications, and are sold worldwide principally to independent distributors, dealers and installers of security equipment. International sales accounted for approximately 7% and 10% of our revenues for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively.
The Company owns and operates manufacturing facilities in Amityville, New York and the Dominican Republic. A significant portion of our operating costs are fixed, and do not fluctuate with changes in production levels or utilization of our manufacturing capacity. As production levels rise and factory utilization increases, the fixed costs are spread over increased output, which should improve profit margins. Conversely, when production levels decline our fixed costs are spread over reduced levels, thereby decreasing margins.
On August 18, 2008, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and business of G. Marks Hardware, Inc. ("Marks") for $25.2 million, the repayment of $1 million of bank debt and the assumption of certain current liabilities. The Company also entered into a lease for the building where Marks has maintained its operations. The lease provided for an annual base rent of $288,750 plus maintenance and real estate taxes and expired in August 2009. In March 2009, the Company began to move the Marks operations into its existing facilities. The Company completed the majority of this consolidation by August 31, 2009. The Marks business involves the manufacturing and distribution of door-locking devices.
The security products market is characterized by constant incremental innovation in product design and manufacturing technologies. Generally, the Company devotes 7-8% of revenues to research and development (R&D) on an annual basis. Products resulting from our R&D investments in fiscal 2010 did not contribute materially to revenue during this fiscal year, but should benefit the Company over future years. In general, the new products introduced by the Company are initially shipped in limited quantities, and increase over time. Prices and manufacturing costs tend to decline over time as products and technologies mature.
Economic and Other Factors
Since October 2008, the U.S. and international economies have experienced a significant downturn and continue to be very volatile. In the event that the downturn in the U.S. or international financial markets is prolonged, our revenue, profit and cashflow levels could be materially adversely affected in future periods. This could affect our ability to maintain adequate financing. If the current worldwide economic downturn continues, many of our current or potential future customers may experience serious cash flow problems and as a result may, modify, delay or cancel purchases of our products. Additionally, customers may not be able to pay, or may delay payment of, accounts receivable that are owed to us. Furthermore, the current downturn and market instability makes it difficult for us to forecast our revenues.
Seasonality
The Company's fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. Historically, the end users of Napco's products want to install its products prior to the summer; therefore sales of its products historically peak in the period April 1 through June 30, the Company's fiscal fourth quarter, and are reduced in the period July 1 through September 30, the Company's fiscal first quarter. To a lesser degree, sales in Europe are also adversely impacted in the Company's first fiscal quarter because of European vacation patterns, i.e., many distributors and installers are closed for the month of August. In addition, demand is affected by the housing and construction markets. The severity of the current economic downturn may also affect this trend.
Restructuring Costs
In March 2009, the Company began a Restructuring Plan consisting of a series of actions to consolidate its Sales, Production and Warehousing operations of Marks and those in Europe and the Middle East into the Corporate Headquarters in Amityville, NY and its production facility in the Dominican Republic. We expect these restructuring initiatives to cost between $1,200,000 and $1,500,000. The majority of these initiatives have been completed by June 30, 2010, while certain remaining Production-related actions are expected to be completed by December 31, 2010. Accordingly, the Company recognized restructuring costs of $1,274,000 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. Of this amount, $210,000 relates to Workforce Reductions communicated in March 2009 and $1,064,000 to Business Exits and related costs associated with inventory and lease impairments related to the closure of the Marks, European and Middle East facilities. As of June 30, 2010, $1,138,000 of the $1,274,000 in restructuring costs has been incurred and $136,000 remains in accrued expenses.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in those financial statements. These judgments can be subjective and complex, and consequently actual results could differ from those estimates. Our most critical accounting policies relate to revenue recognition; concentration of credit risk; inventories; intangible assets; goodwill; and income taxes.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues from merchandise sales are recorded at the time the product is shipped or delivered to the customer pursuant to the terms of sale. We report our sales levels on a net sales basis, which is computed by deducting from gross sales the amount of actual returns received and an amount established for anticipated returns and other allowances.
Our sales return accrual is a subjective critical estimate that has a direct impact on reported net sales and income. This accrual is calculated based on a history of gross sales and actual sales returns, as well as management's estimate of anticipated returns and allowances. As a percentage of gross sales, sales returns, rebates and allowances were 6% and 9% for fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Concentration of Credit Risk
An entity is more vulnerable to concentrations of credit risk if it is exposed to risk of loss greater than it would have had if it mitigated its risk through diversification of customers. Such risks of loss manifest themselves differently, depending on the nature of the concentration, and vary in significance.
The Company had two customers with accounts receivable balances that aggregated 21% and 24% of the Company's accounts receivable at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Sales to neither of these customers exceeded 10% of net sales in any of the past three fiscal years.
In the ordinary course of business, we have established a reserve for doubtful accounts and customer deductions in the amount of $505,000 and $400,000 as of June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Our reserve for doubtful accounts is a subjective critical estimate that has a direct impact on reported net earnings. This reserve is based upon the evaluation of accounts receivable agings, specific exposures and historical trends.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or fair market value, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The reported net value of inventory includes finished saleable products, work-in-process and raw materials that will be sold or used in future periods. Inventory costs include raw materials, direct labor and overhead. The Company's overhead expenses are applied based, in part, upon estimates of the proportion of those expenses that are related to procuring and storing raw materials as compared to the manufacture and assembly of finished products. These proportions, the method of their application, and the resulting overhead included in ending inventory, are based in part on subjective estimates and approximations and actual results could differ from those estimates.
In addition, the Company records an inventory obsolescence reserve, which represents the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated market value, based on various product sales projections. This reserve is calculated using an estimated obsolescence percentage applied to the inventory based on age, historical trends, requirements to support forecasted sales, and the ability to find alternate applications of its raw materials and to convert finished product into alternate versions of the same product to better match customer demand. There is inherent professional judgment and subjectivity made by both production and engineering members of management in determining the estimated obsolescence percentage. For the fiscal years 2010 and 2009, net charges and balances in these reserves amounted to $394,000 and $1,841,000; and $247,000 and $1,447,000, respectively. In addition, and as necessary, the Company may establish specific reserves for future known or anticipated events.
The Company also regularly reviews the period over which its inventories will be converted to sales. Any inventories expected to convert to sales beyond 12 months from the balance sheet date are classified as non-current.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company evaluates its Goodwill for impairment at least on an annual basis. Those intangible assets that are classified as goodwill or as other intangibles with indefinite lives are not amortized.
Impairment testing is performed in two steps: (i) the Company determines impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value, and (ii) if there is an impairment, the Company measures the amount of impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. At the conclusion of fiscal 2009, the Company performed its annual impairment evaluation required by this standard and determined that the goodwill relating to its Alarm Lock and Continental subsidiaries was impaired. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $9,686,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 which represents the unamortized balance of this Goodwill. At the conclusion of the quarter ended March 31, 2010, the Company performed an interim impairment evaluation and determined that its remaining goodwill, relating to its Marks subsidiary, was impaired. Accordingly, in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 the Company recorded an impairment charge of $923,000 which represented the unamortized balance of this Goodwill.
The Company's acquisition of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Marks included intangible assets with a fair value of $16,440,000 on the date of acquisition. The Company recorded the estimated value of $9,800,000 related to the customer relationships, $340,000 related to a non-compete agreement and $6,300,000 related to the Marks trade name within intangible assets. The remaining excess of the purchase price of $923,000 was assigned to Goodwill. The intangible assets will be amortized over their estimated useful lives of twenty years (customer relationships) and seven years (non-compete agreement). The Marks USA trade name was deemed to have an indefinite life. The goodwill recorded as a result of the acquisition is deductible for Federal and New York State income tax purposes over a period of 15 years.
Income Taxes
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10 as of July 1, 2007. The Company has identified its U.S. Federal income tax return and its State return in New York as its major tax jurisdictions. As a result the Company increased its accrued income tax liability by $715,000, from $1,836,000 to $2,551,000, to provide for additional reserves for uncertain income tax positions for U.S. Federal and State income tax purposes. The fiscal 2006 and forward years are still open for examination. The increase in the accrued income tax liability of $715,000 was offset in part by a $230,000 increase to a deferred income tax asset, resulting in a net reduction to retained earnings of $485,000 (representing the cumulative effect of adopting ASC 740-10).
During the year ending June 30, 2010 the Company decreased its reserve for uncertain income tax positions by $83,000. As of June 30, 2010 the Company has a long-term accrued income tax liability of $93,000. The Company's practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense and accrued income taxes. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had accrued interest totaling $23,000 and $77,000 of unrecognized net tax benefits (including the related accrued interest and net of the related deferred income tax benefit of $39,000) that, if recognized, would favorably affect the company's effective income tax rate in any future period.
For the year ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized a net benefit to income tax expense of $64,000 ($83,000 liability reversal including interest, less the related $28,000 reversal of deferred tax asset, plus current year interest accrual on other reserves of $9,000).
A reconciliation of the U.S. Federal statutory income tax rate to our actual effective tax rate on earnings before income taxes for fiscal 2010 is as follows (dollars in thousands):
% of Pre-

---------- ------------
Tax at Federal statutory rate $ (2,579) 34.0%

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's cash on hand combined with proceeds from operating activities during fiscal 2010 were adequate to meet the Company's capital expenditure needs and debt obligations. The Company's primary internal source of liquidity is the cash flow generated from operations. The primary source of financing related to borrowings under an $11,100,000 secured revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2010 $11,100,000 was outstanding under this revolving line of credit. The Company expects that cash on hand and cash generated from operations will be adequate to meet its short-term liquidity requirements. As of June 30, 2010, the Company's unused sources of funds consisted principally of $5,522,000 in cash. The Company plans to utilize $1,786,000 of this cash to pre-pay two payments on its term loan as described below.
On August 18, 2008, the Company and its banks amended and restated the existing $25,000,000 revolving credit agreement. The amended facility was $50,000,000 and provides for a $25,000,000 revolving credit line as well as a $25,000,000 term portion of which the entire $25,000,000 was utilized to finance the asset purchase agreement as described in Note 5 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The amended revolving credit agreement and term loan was amended in June 2009 to $11,100,000 and is secured by the accounts receivable, a portion of inventory, the Company's headquarters building in Amityville, New York, certain other assets of Napco Security Technologies, Inc. and the common stock of three of the Company's subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2010 the Company was not in compliance with several of the financial covenants in the existing facilities for which it anticipates receiving the appropriate waivers from its banks as part of therestatement of these facilities as described below.
The Company and its banks have been in negotiations to amend and restate the existing terms of the credit facilities and term loan. As of the date ofthis report, the Company and its banks have agreed in principle on all the key terms and modifications to the existing revolving credit agreement and term loan. Because the closing and final waivers will occur after the filing date of this Form 10-K, the Company has classified this debt as current in the accompanying financial statements. Upon completion of the closing this debt will be reclassified as long-term in future filings. While the Company anticipates consummating these restated facilities, there can be no assurances that it will do so. The agreement would provide for an accelerated payment, made at closing, consisting of the December 2010 and March 2011 installments (totaling $1,786,000) and restructured financial covenants. The restated agreements also would contain various modifications and conditions and bear interest based on either the Prime Rate or an alternate rate based on LIBOR as described in the agreement. The termination dates of the agreements would remain unchanged. The revolving credit agreement terminates in August 2012 and any outstanding borrowings are to be repaid or refinanced on or before that time. As of June 30, 2010 there was $11,100,000 outstanding under the revolving credit facility with an interest rate of 7.25% and $18,749,000 outstanding under the term loan with an interest rate of 7.25%. The term loan is being repaid in 19 quarterly installments of $893,000 each,which commenced in December 2008, and a final payment of $8,033,000 due in August 2013.
The agreements contain various restrictions and covenants including, among others, restrictions on payment of dividends, restrictions on borrowings and compliance with certain financial ratios, as defined in the restated agreement.
Management believes that current working capital and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund the Company's operations through at least the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
The Company takes into consideration a number of factors in measuring its liquidity, including the ratios set forth below:
As of June 30,
----------------------------
2010 2009
---- ----
Current Ratio 1.1 to 1 2.0 to 1
Sales to Receivables 3.8 to 1 3.5 to 1
Total debt to equity .87 to 1 .82 to 1
|
As of June 30, 2010, the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures or inventory purchases other than purchase orders issued in the normal course of business. On April 26, 1993, the Company's foreign subsidiary entered into a 99-year land lease of approximately 4 acres of land in the Dominican Republic, at an annual cost of approximately $288,000.
On August 18, 2008, the Company, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement with Marks, acquired substantially all of the assets and business for $25 million, the repayment of $1 million of bank debt and the assumption of current liabilities. The Marks business involves the manufacturing and distribution of door-locking devices. The Company funded the acquisition with a term loan from its lenders as described above.
The acquisition described above has been accounted for as a purchase and was valued based on management's estimate of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The estimates of fair value were subject to adjustment for a period of up to one year from the date of acquisition, and such adjustments were not material. Costs in excess of identifiable net assets acquired were allocated to goodwill in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. This Goodwill was written off in the quarter ended March 31, 2010.
Working Capital. Working capital decreased by $18,902,000 to $3,502,000 at June 30, 2010 from $22,404,000 at June 30, 2009. The decrease in working capital was primarily the result of the classification of the Company's outstanding debt under its term loan as a current liability, as discussed above. The outstanding debt under the term loan was classified as a non-current liability as June 30, 2009. Working capital is calculated by deducting Current Liabilities from Current Assets.
Accounts Receivable. Accounts Receivable decreased by $2,259,000 to $17,740,000 at June 30, 2010 from $19,999,000 at June 30, 2009. This decrease resulted primarily from the Company granting shorter payment terms to its customers and, consequently, faster collections of Accounts Receivables.
Inventories. Inventories decreased by $4,752,000 to $24,082,000 at June 30, 2010 as compared to $28,834,000 at June 30, 2009. The decrease in inventory levels was primarily the result of the Company utilizing existing inventory and scheduling its component purchases and production of finished products more closely with sales levels.
Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by $1,888,000 to $9,325,000 as of June 30, 2010 as compared to $7,437,000 at June 30, 2009. This increase is primarily due to increased purchases of raw materials during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 as compared to June 30, 2009, which was primarily the result of the higher sales levels in the quarter ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same quarter a year ago.

Net sales in fiscal 2010 decreased by 2.6% to $67,757,000 from $69,565,000 in fiscal 2009. The decrease in sales was primarily the result of a decrease in products specific to the Company's Middle East operation ($1,867,000). The Company's sales continued to be adversely affected by the worldwide economic downturn.
The Company's gross profit decreased $574,000 to $14,522,000 or 21.4% of net sales in fiscal 2009 as compared to $15,096,000 or 21.7% of net sales in fiscal 2009. Gross profit in fiscal 2010 as compared to fiscal 2009 was affected by the lower sales levels in fiscal 2010 and the restructuring costs charged in fiscal 2009.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 27.8% in fiscal 2010 from 29.0% in fiscal 2009. Selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 2010 decreased $1,353,000 to $18,810,000 from $20,163,000 in fiscal 2009. These decreases resulted primarily from the Company reducing its general payroll and certain selling and marketing expenses in the second half of fiscal 2009 in reaction to the decline in sales levels beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2009. Fiscal 2010 reflects a full year of these reduced expenses.
Interest expense for fiscal 2010 increased by $729,000 to $2,366,000 from $1,637,000 for the same period a year ago. The increase in interest expense is primarily the result of the increase in interest rates charged by the Company's primary banks as partially offset by the Company's reduction of its outstanding borrowings under its term loan.
Other expenses decreased $120,000 to $7,000 in fiscal 2010 as compared to $127,000 in fiscal 2009.
The Company's benefit for income taxes for fiscal 2010 decreased by $2,215,000 to a benefit of $1,084,000 as compared to a benefit of $3,299,000 for the same period a year ago. The decrease in the benefit for income taxes from fiscal 2009 to fiscal 2010 resulted primarily from the Company recognizing a net tax benefit to income tax expense of $3,293,000 in fiscal 2009 for an impairment charge to goodwill in that year.
Net loss for fiscal 2010 decreased by $6,882,000 to $(6,500,000) as compared to $(13,382,000) in fiscal 2009. This resulted primarily from the impairment charge to goodwill of $9,686,000 and restructuring costs of 1,274,000 in fiscal 2009, as partially offset by the reduction of the benefit for income tax of 2,215,000, all of which are discussed above.
Forward-looking Information
This Annual Report on Form 10-K and the information incorporated by reference may include "Forward-Looking Statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934. The Company intends the Forward-Looking Statements to be covered by the Safe Harbor Provisions for Forward-Looking Statements. All statements regarding the Company's expected financial position and operating results, its business strategy, its financing plans and the outcome of any contingencies are Forward-Looking Statements. The Forward-Looking Statements are based on current estimates and projections about our industry and our business. Words such as "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such Forward-Looking Statements. The Forward-Looking Statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth or implied by any Forward-Looking Statements. For example, the Company is highly dependent on its Chief Executive Officer for strategic planning. If he is unable to perform his services for any significant period of time, the Company's ability to grow could be adversely affected. In addition, factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Forward-Looking Statements include, but are not limited to, the ability to maintain adequate financing to fund operations, adverse tax consequences of offshore operations, significant fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Dominican Peso and the U.S. Dollar, distribution problems, unforeseen environmental liabilities, the uncertain economic, military and political conditions in the world and the successful integration of Marks into our existing operations. The Company's Risk Factors are discussed in more detail in Item 1A.
ITEM 7A: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's principal financial instrument is debt (consisting of a revolving credit facility and a term loan) that provides for interest at a spread above the prime rate. The Company is affected by market risk exposure primarily through the effect of changes in interest rates on amounts payable by the Company under this credit facility. At June 30, 2010, an aggregate principal amount of approximately $29,849,000 was outstanding under the Company's credit facility with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 7.25%. If principal amounts outstanding under the Company's credit facility remained at this year-end level for an entire year and the prime rate increased or decreased, respectively, by 1% the Company would pay or save, respectively, an additional $298,000 in interest that year.
A significant number of foreign sales transactions by the Company are denominated in U.S. dollars. As such, the Company has shifted foreign currency exposure onto many of its foreign customers. As a result, if exchange rates move against foreign customers, the Company could experience difficulty collecting unsecured accounts receivable, the cancellation of existing orders or the loss of future orders. The foregoing could materially adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Company transacts certain sales in Europe in British Pounds Sterling, therefore exposing itself to a certain amount of foreign currency risk. Management believes that the amount of this exposure is immaterial. We are also exposed to foreign currency risk relative to expenses incurred in Dominican Pesos ("RD$"), the local currency of the Company's production facility in the Dominican Republic. The result of a 10% strengthening in the U.S. dollar to our RD$ expenses would result in an annual decrease in income from operations of approximately $300,000.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Board of Directors and Stockholders Napco Security Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries Amityville, New York |
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Napco Security Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Napco Security Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2010 and 2009 and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NAPCO SECURITY TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Nature of Business
Napco Security Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") is a diversified manufacturer of security products, encompassing intrusion and fire alarms, building access control systems and electronic locking devices. These products are used for commercial, residential, institutional, industrial and governmental applications, and are sold worldwide principally to independent distributors, dealers and installers of security equipment.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Napco Security Technologies, Inc. and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including those of Marks USA I, LLC ("Marks"), a subsidiary which acquired substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of G. Marks Hardware, Inc. acquired on August 18, 2008. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has evaluated events subsequent to June 30, 2010 through the filing date of this report for potential recognition or disclosure in these consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent gains and losses at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Critical estimates include management's judgments associated with revenue recognition, concentration of credit risk, inventories, goodwill and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fourth Quarter Adjustments
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 the Company recorded adjustments to increase its reserve for obsolescence in its ending inventory. This adjustment is based on the Company's estimate of the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated market value, based on various product sales projections.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include approximately $3,916,000 and $2,010,000 of short-term time deposits at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has cash balances in banks in excess of the maximum amount insured by the FDIC and other international agencies as of June 30, 2010 and 2009.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable is stated net of the reserves for doubtful accounts of $505,000 and $400,000 and for returns and other allowances of $1,180,000 and $966,000 as of June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively. Our reserves for doubtful accounts and for returns and other allowances are subjective critical estimates that have a direct impact on reported net earnings. These reserves are based upon the evaluation of accounts receivable agings, specific exposures, sales levels and historical trends.
FS-7
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or fair market value, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The reported net value of inventory includes finished saleable products, work-in-process and raw materials that will be sold or used in future periods. Inventory costs include raw materials, direct labor and overhead. The Company's overhead expenses are applied based, in part, upon estimates of the proportion of those expenses that are related to procuring and storing raw materials as compared to the manufacture and assembly of finished products. These proportions, the method of their application, and the resulting overhead included in ending inventory, are based in part on subjective estimates and actual results could differ from those estimates.
In addition, the Company records an inventory obsolescence reserve, which represents the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated market value, based on various product sales projections. This reserve is calculated using an estimated obsolescence percentage applied to the inventory based on age, historical trends, requirements to support forecasted sales, and the ability to find alternate applications of its raw materials and to convert finished product into alternate versions of the same product to better match customer demand. There is inherent professional judgment and subjectivity made by both production and engineering members of management in determining the estimated obsolescence percentage. For the fiscal years 2010 and 2009, charges and balances in these reserves amounted to $394,000 and $1,540,000; and $247,000 and $1,447,000, respectively. In addition, and as necessary, the Company may establish specific reserves for future known or anticipated events.
The Company also regularly reviews the period over which its inventories will be converted to sales. Any inventories expected to convert to sales beyond 12 months from the balance sheet date are classified as non-current.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; costs of major renewals and improvements are capitalized. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the asset and accumulated depreciation accounts and the profit or loss on such disposition is reflected in income.
Depreciation is recorded over the estimated service lives of the related assets using primarily the straight-line method. Amortization of leasehold improvements is calculated by using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset or lease term, whichever is shorter.
Goodwill
The Company evaluates its Goodwill for impairment at least on an annual basis. Those intangible assets that are classified as goodwill or as other intangibles with indefinite lives are not amortized. Impairment testing is performed in two steps: (i) the Company determines impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value, and (ii) if there is an impairment, the Company measures the amount of impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. At the conclusion of fiscal 2009, the Company performed its annual impairment evaluation required by this standard and determined that the goodwill relating to its Alarm Lock and Continental subsidiaries was impaired. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $9,686,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 which represents the unamortized balance of this Goodwill. At the conclusion of the quarter ended March 31, 2010, the Company performed an interim impairment evaluation and determined that its remaining goodwill, relating to its Marks subsidiary, was impaired. Accordingly, in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 the Company recorded an impairment charge of $923,000 which represented the unamortized balance of this Goodwill.
Intangible Assets
Certain intangible assets determined to have indefinite lives are not amortized but are tested for impairment at least annually. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their useful lives and are reviewed for impairment at least annually at the Company's fiscal year end of June 30 or more often whenever there is an indication that the carrying amount may not be recovered.
The Company's acquisition of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Marks included intangible assets with a fair value of $16,440,000 on the date of acquisition. The Company recorded the estimated value of $9,800,000 related to the customer relationships, $340,000 related to a non-compete agreement and $6,300,000 related to the Marks trade name within intangible assets. The intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives of twenty years (customer relationships) and seven years (non-compete agreement). The Marks USA trade name was deemed to have an indefinite life. The goodwill recorded as a result of the acquisition is deductible for Federal and New York State income tax purposes over a period of 15 years.
Changes in intangible assets are as follows (in thousands):

|
Amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization was approximately $1,339,000 and $1,231,000 for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Amortization expense for each of the next five years is estimated to be as follows: 2011 - $1,154,000; 2012 - $1,065,000; 2013 - $917,000; and 2014 - $781,000 and 2015 - $667,000. The weighted average amortization period for intangible assets was 17.7 years and 18.7 years at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets in question may not be recoverable. An impairment would be recorded in circumstances where undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset are less than the carrying value of that asset.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, (ii) there is a fixed and determinable price for the Company's product, (iii) shipment and passage of title occurs, and (iv) collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenues from merchandise sales are recorded at the time the product is shipped or delivered to the customer pursuant to the terms of the sale. The Company reports its sales levels on a net sales basis, with net sales being computed by deducting from gross sales the amount of actual sales returns and other allowances and the amount of reserves established for anticipated sales returns and other allowances.
Sales Returns and Other Allowances
The Company analyzes sales returns and is able to make reasonable and reliable estimates of product returns based on the Company's past history. Estimates for sales returns are based on several factors including actual returns and based on expected return data communicated to it by its customers. Accordingly, the Company believes that its historical returns analysis is an accurate basis for its allowance for sales returns. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Advertising and Promotional Costs
Advertising and promotional costs are included in "Selling, General and Administrative" expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was $681,000 and $1,038,000, respectively.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs incurred by the Company are charged to expense in the year incurred. Company-sponsored research and development costs of $4,922,000 and $5,116,000 were charged to expense for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and are included in "Cost of Sales" in the consolidated statements of operations.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company measures and recognizes the tax implications of positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax returns on an ongoing basis.
Earnings Per Share
Basic net loss per common share (Basic EPS) is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per common share (Diluted EPS) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents and convertible securities then outstanding.
The following provides a reconciliation of information used in calculating the per share amounts for the fiscal years ended June 30 (in thousands, except per share data):
Net Loss Weighted Average Shares Net Loss per Share

========== =========== ========== =========== ========== =========
|
Options to purchase 1,410,140 and 1,420,240 shares of common stock for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were not included in the computation of Diluted EPS because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. These options were still outstanding at the end of the respective periods.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has established two share incentive programs as discussed in Note 9.
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Determining the fair value of share-based awards at the grant date requires assumptions and judgments about expected volatility and forfeiture rates, among other factors.
Stock-based compensation costs of $227,000 and $349,000 were recognized for fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively. The effect on both Basic and Diluted Earnings per share was $0.01 for fiscal year 2010 and $0.02 for fiscal year 2009.
Foreign Currency
All assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. Dollars at fiscal year-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal year. The realized and unrealized gains and losses associated with foreign currency translation, as well as related other comprehensive income, were not material for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company's operations did not give rise to material items includable in comprehensive income (loss), which were not already included in net income (loss). Accordingly, the Company's comprehensive income (loss) approximates its net income (loss) for all periods presented.
Segment Reporting
The Company's reportable operating segments are determined based on the Company's management approach. The management approach is based on the way that the chief operating decision maker organizes the segments within an enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The Company's results of operations are reviewed by the chief operating decision maker on a consolidated basis and the Company operates in only one segment. The Company has presented required geographical data in Note 13, and no additional segment data has been presented.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company calculates the fair value of financial instruments and includes this additional information in the notes to the financial statements where the fair value is different than the book value of those financial instruments. When the fair value approximates book value, no additional disclosure is made. The Company uses quoted market prices whenever available to calculate these fair values. When quoted market prices are not available, the Company uses standard pricing models for various types of financial instruments which take into account the present value of estimated future cash flows. At June 30, 2010 and 2009, management of the Company believes the carrying value of all financial instruments approximated fair value.
Shipping and Handling Revenues and Costs
The Company records the amount billed to customers in net sales ($514,000 and $488,000 in fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively) and classifies the costs associated with these revenues in cost of sales ($1,010,000 and $716,000 in fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively).
New Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, "Subsequent Events ("Topic 855"):
Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements". The amendments
remove the requirement for an SEC registrant to disclose the date through which
subsequent events were evaluated as this requirement would have potentially
conflicted with SEC reporting requirements. Removal of the disclosure
requirement is not expected to affect the nature or timing of subsequent events
evaluations performed by the Company. This ASU became effective upon issuance.
The Company had two customers with accounts receivable balances that aggregated 21% and 24% of the Company's accounts receivable at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Sales to neither of these customers exceeded 10% of net sales in any of the past two years.
Inventories, net of reserves are valued at lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. The Company regularly reviews parts and finished goods inventories on hand and, when necessary, records a provision for excess or obsolete inventories. The Company also regularly reviews the period over which its inventories will be converted to sales. Any inventories expected to convert to sales beyond 12 months from the balance sheet date are classified as non-current.

Depreciation and amortization expense on property, plant, and equipment was approximately $1,264,000 and $1,368,000 in fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively.
On August 18, 2008, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and business of Marks for $25.2 million, the repayment of $1 million of bank debt and the assumption of current liabilities. As such, the operations of Marks have been included in the Company's Statement of Operations commencing on August 18, 2008. The Marks business involves the manufacturing and distribution of door-locking devices. The Company completed this acquisition at a price in excess of the value of the net identifiable assets because it believes that the combination of the two companies offers the potential for manufacturing and operational synergies as the Company combines the Marks operations and production into its own door-locking operations and production structure. The Company funded the acquisition with a term loan from its lenders as described in Note 7.
The acquisition described above was accounted for as a purchase and was valued based on management's estimate of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Based on the Company's evaluation, the allocation of the purchase price for the acquisition was as follows (in thousands):
Assets Acquired:
Cash $ 520
Accounts receivable 1,836

The Company recorded the estimated value of $9,800,000 related to the customer relationships, $340,000 related to a non-compete agreement and $6,300,000 related to the Marks trade name within intangible assets and the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired assets of $923,000 was assigned to Goodwill. The intangible assets will be amortized over their estimated useful lives of twenty years (customer relationships) and seven years (non-compete agreement). The weighted average amortization period of these assets is 19.6 years. The Marks trade name was deemed to have an indefinite life. The goodwill recorded as a result of the acquisition is deductible for Federal and New York State income tax purposes over a period of 15 years.
Unaudited pro-forma consolidated financial information is presented below as if the acquisition had occurred as of the first day of the earliest period presented.

The Company has identified its U.S. Federal income tax return and its State return in New York as its major tax jurisdictions. As a result the Company increased its accrued income tax liability by $715,000, from $1,836,000 to $2,551,000, to provide for additional reserves for uncertain income tax positions for U.S. Federal and State income tax purposes. Fiscal 2006 and forward years are still open for examination. The increase in the accrued income tax liability of $715,000 was offset in part by a $230,000 increase to a deferred income tax asset, resulting in a net reduction to retained earnings of $485,000.
During the year ending June 30, 2010 the Company decreased its reserve for uncertain income tax positions by $83,000. As of June 30, 2010 the Company has a long-term accrued income tax liability of $93,000. The Company's practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense and accrued income taxes. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had accrued interest totaling $23,000 and $77,000 of unrecognized net tax benefits (including the related accrued interest and net of the related deferred income tax benefit of $39,000) that, if recognized, would favorably affect the company's effective income tax rate in any future period.
For the year ended June 30, 2010, the company recognized a net benefit to income tax expense of $64,000 ($83,000 liability reversal including interest, less the related $28,000 reversal of deferred tax asset, plus current year interest accrual on other reserves of $9,000).
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Napco US plans to permanently reinvest a substantial portion of its foreign earnings and as such has not provided US corporate taxes on the permanently reinvested earnings. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had no undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries.
As of June 30, 2010, debt consisted of a revolving credit loan facility of $11,100,000 with outstanding borrowings of $11,100,000 at June 30, 2010 and at June 30, 2009.
On August 18, 2008, the Company and its banks amended and restated the existing $25,000,000 revolving credit agreement. The amended facility was $50,000,000 and provides for a $25,000,000 revolving credit line as well as a $25,000,000 term portion of which the entire $25,000,000 was utilized to finance the asset purchase agreement as described in Note 5 of the accompanying consolidated financialstatements. The amended revolving credit agreement and term loan was amended in June 2009 to $11,100,000 and is secured by the accounts receivable, a portion of inventory, the Company's headquarters building in Amityville, New York, certain other assets of Napco Security Technologies, Inc. and the common stock of three of the Company's subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2010 and certain quarters preceding as previously disclosed, the Company was not in compliance with several of the financial covenants in the existing facilities for which it anticipates receiving the appropriate waivers from its banks as part of the restatement of these facilities as further described below.
The Company and its banks have been in negotiations to amend and restate the existing terms of the credit facilities and term loan. As of the date of the issuance of these financial statements, the Company and its banks have agreed in principle on all the key terms and modifications to the existing revolving credit agreement and term loan. Some of the key terms that have been agreed to by both parties include anaccelerated payment of approximately $1,786,000 to be made at closing, consisting of the December 2010 and March 2011 installments, and restructuring of the financial covenants to better reflect the Company's current financial condition. The Company anticipates receiving appropriate waivers from the banks in connection with its non compliance at June 30, 2010 and for prior quarters. The restated agreement also provides for interest based on either the Prime Rate or an alternate rate based on LIBOR and changes the margins associated with these benchmarks. To consummate and finalize these amendments, the Company and its banks are in the process of scheduling a closing date. Because the closing and final waivers will occur after the filing date of this Form 10-K, the Company has classified this debt as current in the accompanying financial statements. Upon completion of the closing this debt will be reclassified as long-term in future filings. The revolving credit agreement terminates in August 2012 and any outstanding borrowings are to be repaid or refinanced on or before that time. As of June 30, 2010 there was $11,100,000 outstanding under the revolving credit facility with an interest rate of 7.25% and $18,749,000 outstanding under the term loan with an interest rate of 7.25%. The term loan is being repaid in 19 quarterly installments of $893,000 each,whichcommenced in December 2008, and a final payment of $8,033,000 due in August 2013.
The agreements contain various restrictions and covenants including, among others, restrictions on payment of dividends, restrictions on borrowings and compliance with certain financial ratios, as defined in the restated agreement.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company concluded indicators of potential impairment were present due to the sustained decline in the Company's share price resulting in the market capitalization of the Company being less than its book value. The Company conducted an impairment test during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 based on the facts and circumstances at that time and its business strategy in light of existing industry and economic conditions, as well as taking into consideration future expectations. Through its impairment testing and review, the Company concluded its discounted cash flow analysis does not support a residual implied fair value of its assets and liabilities relating to the Alarm Lock acquisition in 1985 and the Continental acquisition in 2000. As a result, for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $9.7 million, which was the full carrying value of goodwill relating to these two acquisitions as of that date.
At the conclusion of the quarter ended March 31, 2010, the Company amended its projected discounted cash flows relating to its Marks subsidiary and, as a result, performed an interim impairment test. The Company determined that this remaining goodwill was impaired and in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 recorded an impairment charge of $923,000 which represented the unamortized balance of this Goodwill.
The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill are as follows:

In December 2002, the stockholders approved the 2002 Employee Stock Option Plan (the 2002 Plan). The 2002 Plan authorizes the granting of awards, the exercise of which would allow up to an aggregate of 1,836,000 shares of the Company's common stock to be acquired by the holders of such awards. Under the 2002 Plan, the Company may grant stock options, which are intended to qualify as incentive stock options (ISOs), to key employees. Any plan participant who is granted ISOs and possesses more than 10% of the voting rights of the Company's outstanding common stock must be granted an option with a price of at least 110% of the fair market value on the date of grant.
Under the 2002 Plan, stock options have been granted to key employees with a term of 10 years at an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant and are exercisable in whole or in part at 20% per year from the date of grant. At June 30, 2010, 1,471,480 stock options were granted, 364,520 stock options were available for grant, and 1,317,906 stock options were exercisable under this plan.
No options were granted during fiscal 2010. The fair value of each option granted during fiscal 2009 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

Risk-free interest rates 3.07%
Expected lives 10 years

As of June 30, 2010, there was $62,000 of total unearned stock-based compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the 2002 Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 6 years. The total fair value of the options vested during fiscal 2010 under the 2002 Plan was $222,575.
In September 2000, the stockholders approved a 10 year extension of the already existing 1990 non-employee stock option plan (the 2000 Plan) to encourage non-employee directors and consultants of the Company to invest in the Company's stock. The 2000 Plan provided for the granting of non-qualified stock options, the exercise of which would allow up to an aggregate of 270,000 shares of the Company's common stock to be acquired by the holders of the stock options. The 2000 Plan provided that the option price will not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant. Options were exercisable at 20% per year and expire five years after the date of grant. Compensation cost is recognized for the fair value of the options granted to non-employee directors and consultants as of the date of grant. $19,000 of compensation expense was recorded for stock options granted to directors under the 2000 Plan. There are 240,000 options available for future grants under the 2000 Plan.

As of June 30, 2010, there was $13,000 of total unearned stock-based compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the 2000 Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1 year. The total fair value of the options vested during fiscal 2010 under the 2002 Plan was $18,960.
The Company maintains two 401(k) plans ("the Napco Plan" and "the Marks Plan") that cover all U.S. non-union employees with one or more years of service and is qualified under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Napco Plan provided for matching contributions of 50% of the first 2% of employee contributions. During fiscal 2009 the Company amended this plan, eliminating the provision for mandatory matching contributions. Company contributions to the plan totaled approximately $0 and $55,000 for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Marks Plan was adopted by the Company subsequent to the Marks acquisition in August 2008 and provides for discretionary matching contributions. Company contributions to this plan were $28,000 for fiscal 2010 and $0 for fiscal 2009.

Litigation
In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to claims and/or litigation. Management believes that the settlement of such claims and/or litigation, considered in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position and results of operations.
Employment Agreements

The employment agreements provide for annual bonuses based upon sales and profits, or a formula to be determined by the Board of Directors, and various severance payments as defined in each agreement. The agreement with the Company's Chief Executive Officer provides for a salary of $587,000, includes additional compensation of 25,000 stock options that vest 20% per year or upon a change in control, as defined, and a termination payment in an amount equal to 299% of the average of the prior five calendar year's compensation, subject to certain limitations, as defined. The employment agreements expire at various times through August 2013.
The Company is engaged in one major line of business: the development, manufacture, and distribution of security alarm products and door security devices for commercial and residential use. Sales to unaffiliated customers are primarily shipped from the United States. The Company has customers worldwide with major concentrations in North America, Europe, and South America.

ITEM 9A: CONTROL AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. At the conclusion of the period ended June 30, 2010, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for the preparation of Napco Security Technologies, Inc. (Napco Security Technologies) consolidated financial statements and related information. Management uses its best judgment to ensure that the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, Napco Security Technologies consolidated financial position and results of operations in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The financial statements have been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Their report expresses the independent accountant's judgment as to the fairness of management's reported operating results, cash flows and financial position. This judgment is based on the procedures described in the second paragraph of their report.
Napco Security Technologies management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision of management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control -- Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission published in 1992 and subsequent guidance prepared specifically for smaller public companies. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2010.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that accurately and fairly reflect, in reasonable detail, transactions and dispositions of assets; and provide reasonable assurances that: (1) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States; (2) receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors of our Company; and (3) unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements are prevented or timely detected.
Limitations on Internal Control
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent
limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can
provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement
preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of Holtz Rubinstein Reminick LLP, our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's Report was not subject to attestation by the company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only Management's Report in this annual report.
The Board of Directors of Napco Security Technologies has an Audit Committee comprised of three non-management directors. The Committee meets periodically with financial management and the independent auditors to review accounting, control, audit and financial reporting matters. Holtz Rubinstein Reminick LLP has full and free access to the Audit Committee, with and without the presence of management.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 that has materially affected or is likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

Section 2. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the stockholders, unless otherwise prescribed by statute, may be called at any time by the Board, the Chairman of the Board or the President.
Section 3. Notice of Meetings. Notice of the place, date and time of the holding of each annual and special meeting of the stockholders and the purpose or purposes thereof shall be given personally or by mail in a postage prepaid envelope to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting, not less than ten nor more than fifty days before the date of such meeting. If mailed, it shall be deposited in the mails within the above-mentioned period and directed to such stockholder at his address as it appears on the records of the Corporation, unless he shall have filed with the Secretary of the Corporation a written request that notices to him be mailed to some other address, in which case it shall be directed to him at such other address. Except as may otherwise be required by applicable law, notice of any meeting of stockholders shall not be required to be given to any stockholder who shall attend such meeting in person or by proxy and shall not, at the beginning of such meeting, object to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened, or who shall, either before or after the meeting, submit a signed waiver of notice, in person or by proxy. In the case of an adjourned meeting, unless the Board shall fix after the adjournment a new record date, notice of such adjourned meeting need not be given if the time and place to which the meeting shall be adjourned were announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.
Section 4. Place of Meetings. Meetings of the stockholders may be held at such place, within or without the State of Delaware, as the Board or the officer calling the same shall specify in the notice of such meeting, or in a duly executed waiver of notice thereof.
Section 5. Quorum. At all meetings of the stockholders, the holders of a majority of the shares of stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote shall be present in person or by proxy to constitute a quorum for the transaction of any business, except as otherwise provided by statute or in the Certificate of Incorporation and except when stockholders are required to vote by class, in which event a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the appropriate class shall be present in person or by proxy. In the absence of a quorum, the holders of a majority of the shares of stock present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote, or if no stockholder entitled to vote is present, then any officer of the Corporation, may adjourn the meeting from time to time. At any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum may be present, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called.
Section 6. Organization. At each meeting of the stockholders, the Chairman of the Board or the President, or in their absence of inability to act, a Vice President, or in the absence of any Vice President, any person chosen by a majority of those stockholders present shall act as chairman of the meeting. The Secretary, or, in his absence or inability to act, the Assistant Secretary or any person appointed by the chairman of the meeting, shall act as secretary of the meeting and keep the minutes thereof.
Section 7. Order of Business. The order of business at all meetings of the stockholders shall be as determined by the chairman of the meeting.
Section 8. Voting. Except as otherwise provided by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or any certificate duly filed in the State of Delaware pursuant to Section 151 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, each holder of record of shares of stock of the Corporation having voter power shall be entitled to one vote for every share of such stock standing in his name on the record of stockholders of the Corporation on the date fixed by the Board as the record date for the determination of the stockholders who shall be entitled to notice of and to vote at such meeting; or if such record date shall not have been so fixed, then at the close of business on the day next prevailing the day on which notice thereof shall be given, or if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. Each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders may authorize another person or persons to act for him by a proxy signed by such stockholder or his attorney-in-fact. Any such proxy shall be delivered to the secretary of such meeting at or prior to the time designated in the order of business for so delivering such proxies. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of three years from the date thereof, unless otherwise provided in the proxy. Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the stockholder executing it, except in those cases where an irrevocable proxy is permitted by law. Except as otherwise provided by statute, these By-Laws or the Certificate of Incorporation, any corporate action to be taken by vote of the stockholders shall be authorized by a majority of the total votes, or when stockholders are required to vote by class by a majority of the votes of the appropriate class, cast at a meeting of stockholders by the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on such action. Unless required by statute, or determined by the chairman of the meeting to be advisable, the vote on any question need not be by written ballot. On a vote by written ballot, each ballot shall be signed by the stockholder voting, or by his proxy, if there be such proxy, and shall state the number of shares voted.
Section 9. List of Stockholders. The officer or duly authorized transfer agent who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder.

The list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present.
Section 10. Inspectors. The Board may, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one or more inspectors to act at such meeting or any adjournment thereof. If the inspectors shall not be so appointed or if any of them shall fail to appear or act, the chairman of the meeting may, and on the request of any stockholder entitled to vote thereat shall appoint inspectors. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector at such meeting with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability. The inspectors shall determine the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, the number of shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, and the validity and effect of proxies, and they shall receive votes, ballots or consents, hear and determine all challenges and questions arising in connection with the right to vote, count and tabulate all votes, ballots or consents, determine the result, and do such acts as are proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders. On request of the chairman of the meeting or any stockholder entitled to vote thereat, the inspectors shall make a report in writing of any challenge, request or matter determined by them and shall execute a certificate of any fact found by them. No director or candidate for the office of director shall act as inspector of an election of directors. Inspectors may, but need not, be stockholders.
Section 11. Conduct of Business.
(a) The chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedures at the meeting, including such regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as seem to him or her in order. The date and time of the opening and closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at the meeting shall be announced at the meeting by the chairman.
(b) At any annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall
be conducted as shall have been brought before the meeting (i) by or at the
direction of the Board of Directors or (ii) by any stockholder of the
Corporation who is entitled to vote with respect thereto and who complies with
the notice procedures set forth in this Section 11(b). For business to be
properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the business must
relate to a proper subject matter for stockholder action and the stockholder
must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the
Corporation. To be timely, a stockholder's notice must be delivered or mailed
to and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less
than sixty (60) days prior to the date of the annual meeting; provided,
however, that in the event that less than seventy (70) days' notice or prior
public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders,
notice by the stockholder to be timely must be received not later than the
close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such
notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or such public disclosure
was made. A stockholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each
matter such stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting: (i) a
brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual
meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting;
(ii) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of the
stockholder proposing such business; (iii) the class and number of shares of
the Corporation's capital stock that are beneficially owned by such
stockholder; and (iv) any material interest of such stockholder in such
business. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business
shall be brought before or conducted at an annual meeting except in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 11(b). The Chairman of the Corporation or
other person presiding over the annual meeting shall, if the facts so warrant,
determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought
before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11(b) and,
if he or she should so determine, he or she shall so declare to the meeting and
any such business so determined to be not properly brought before the meeting
shall not be transacted.
At any special meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors.
(c) Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section shall be eligible for election as Directors. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the Corporation may be made at a meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected only: (i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (ii) by any stockholder of the Corporation entitled to vote for the election of Directors at the meeting who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 11(c). Such nominations, other than those made by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, shall be made by timely notice in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a stockholder's notice shall be delivered or mailed to and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than sixty (60) days prior to the date of the meeting; provided, however, that in the event that less than seventy (70) days' notice or prior disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. Such stockholder's notice shall set forth: (i) as to each person whom such stockholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a Director, all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (including such person's written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); and (ii) as to the stockholder giving the notice (x) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of such stockholder and (y) the class and number of shares of the Corporation's capital stock that are beneficially owned by such stockholder. At the request of the Board of Directors any person nominated by the Board of Directors for election as a Director shall furnish to the Secretary of the Corporation that information required to be set forth in a stockholder's notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee. No person shall be eligible for election as a Director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11(c). The Chairman of the Corporation or other person presiding at the meeting shall, if the facts so warrant, determine that a nomination was not made in accordance with such provisions and, if he or she shall so determine, he or she shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded.

In the absence of a quorum at any meeting of the Board, a majority of the directors present thereat, or if no director be present, the Secretary, may adjourn such meeting to another time and place, or such meeting, unless it be the first meeting of the Board, need not be held. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present, any business may be transacted at the meeting as originally called. Except as provided in Article III of these By-Laws, the directors shall act only as a Board and the individual directors shall have no power as such.
Section 9. Organization.

The Secretary (or, in his absence or inability to act, any person appointed by the chairman) shall act as secretary of the meeting and keep the minutes thereof.
Section 10. Resignations. Any Director of the Corporation may resign at any time by giving written notice of his resignation to the Board, the Chairman of the Board, the President or the Secretary. Any such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein or, if the time when it shall become effective shall not be specified therein, immediately upon its receipt; and, unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.
Section 11. Vacancies.

If there are no directors in office, then an election of directors may be held in the manner provided by statute. If, at the time of filling any vacancy or any newly created directorship, the directors then in office shall constitute less than majority of the whole Board (as constituted immediately prior to any such increase), the Court of Chancery may, upon application of any holder or holders of at least ten percent of the shares at the time outstanding having the right to vote for such directors, summarily order an election to be held to fill any such vacancies or newly created directorships, or to replace the directors chosen by the directors then in office.

AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), dated as of June 26, 2003, between Napco Security Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Richard Soloway (the "Employee").
WHEREAS, Employee has been serving as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the parties wish to provide for the continuation of such services.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements contained herein, the Employment Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
1. Employment, Duties and Acceptance.
1.1. The Company hereby employs the Employee for the Term (as hereinafter defined) to render services to the Company as its chairman of the board, president and chief executive officer, subject to the direction of the Board of Directors, and, in connection therewith, to perform such executive and managerial duties as he shall be directed by the Board of Directors consistent with Employee's position as chairman of the board, president and chief executive officer and consistent with the duties performed by the Employee immediately prior to the date of this Agreement.
1.2 Acceptance of Employment by the Employee. The Employee hereby accepts such employment and agrees to render the executive and managerial services described above on the terms and conditions set forth.
2. Term of Employment. The term of the Employee's employment under this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall end five (5) years from the date hereof, unless sooner terminated pursuant to Article 5 of this Agreement and shall renew for additional one year intervals thereafter unless (i) sooner terminated pursuant to Article 5 hereof or (ii) either party gives notices of non-renewal at least six months before the end of the then applicable term of employment (the "Term").
3. Compensation.
3.1. Salary. For services to be rendered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay the Employee a salary of $453,235 per annum (the "Annual Salary"), payable in accordance with the Company's regular payroll practices but no less frequently than once per month. Employee's annual salary shall be reviewed by the Board of Directors from time to time, but may not be reduced, and shall be increased commencing January 1 of each year of the Term by an amount at least equal to the product of the prior year's Annual Salary and the increase in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI") (over the CPI for 2003). Any increased amount shall be considered "Annual Salary" for the purposes of this Agreement.
3.2. Incentive Compensation. For each of the Company's fiscal years ending during the Term, including the fiscal year ending June 30, 2003, the Employee shall be awarded an incentive bonus (the "Bonus"), in such amount as determined by the Board of Directors. All or a portion of the amount of such bonus shall, at the Employee's option, be payable in common stock of the Company valued at the average closing sales price of NASDAQ, or the principal market on which the Company's common stock trades, on the last five trading days of the fiscal year for which the bonus is paid. The bonus set forth in this Section 3.2 shall be paid to the Employee no later than thirty (30) days after the Company's receipt of the audited financial statements for the Company with respect to the applicable fiscal year.
3.3. Withholdings and Deductions. All Compensation described in this Article 3 shall be less such deductions as may be required to be withheld by applicable law and regulation including the payment by the Employee of any applicable tax withholding with respect to his receipt of shares of common stock pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof.
3.4. Stock Options. As additional incentive to Employee, simultaneous with the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall grant Employee options under the Company's Stock Option Plan to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price equal to 110% of the "Market Price" (as defined below) of the shares on the date the Options are granted with respect to incentive stock options and 100% of the Market Price on the date the Options are granted for a non-qualified stock options. Options set forth in this Section 3.4 shall vest as provided in such Plan, but in no event later than on a Change in Control, as defined in Article 6 below, and may be exercisable for 5 years. For the purposes hereof, "Market Price" shall mean the last reported sales price of the Company's common stock on the relevant date. The Stock Option Agreement shall provide that the Employee may exercise options through a "cashless exercise" procedure and shall permit the Employee to sell any or all of the shares acquired through the exercise of any Options to the Company, at the discretion of the Employee, upon a Change in Control, at the Market Price of such shares on the date of sale.
3.5. Supplemental Amount. (a) The Company has a qualified retirement plan, under Section 401 et seq. of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Employee is a participant in said plans. Section 415 of the Code provides that a plan shall not be a qualified trust under Section 401(a) if it provides for the payment of contributions with respect to a participant in excess of certain amounts. The Company's plan has provisions intended to assure that they are such qualified trusts, by providing that no contribution may be made to a plan if such contribution would cause the plan to be a non-qualified trust (the "Section 415 provisions"). The annual amounts that the Employee, as a participant, would be entitled to have contributed for his benefit by the Company under said plan (or under any other plan qualified under Section 401 et seq. of the Code in which the Employee may be a participant during the Term) if the plans did not have Section 415 provisions (or any successor provisions) in excess of the annual amounts that the Company actually contributes thereto for the benefit of the Employee is referred to as the "Supplemental Amount."
(b) As supplemental compensation for
each year during the Term, the Company shall, within 90 days after the end of
the year, at the election of the Employee either (i) contribute the Supplemental
Amount to non-qualified retirement plan established for the benefit of the
Employee, (ii) issue (or transfer from its treasury stock) to the Employee a
number of shares of its common stock, subject to no restriction other than as
required by the Securities Act of 1933, equal to (x) the Supplemental Amount,
(y) divided by the average of the daily closing prices of such stock over the
last five trading days during said year. Such number of shares shall be rounded
to the nearest number of whole shares. The certificate representing said shares
shall bear the following legend: "The shares represented by this certificate
were acquired in a transaction not registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
and may not be transferred or disposed of except pursuant to an effective
registration statement under said Act or an exemption from such registration
thereunder" or (iii) pay the Supplemental Amount to the Employee in a lump sum
cash payment.
4. Expenses and Benefits.
4.1. Expenses. The Company shall pay or reimburse the Employee for all reasonable expenses actually incurred or paid by him during the Term in the performance of his services under this Agreement, upon presentation of expense statements or vouchers or such other supporting information as it may require.
4.2. Benefits. The Employee shall be entitled to all rights and benefits for which he shall be eligible under any stock option or extra compensation plan, pension, group insurance or other so-called "fringe" benefits which the Company may, in its sole discretion, provide for him or for its senior executive employees generally.
4.3. Vacation. The Employee shall be entitled to such vacation as is provided from time to time to other senior executives of the Company. Upon termination of Employee's employment for any reason, the Company shall pay Employee for all unused vacation pay from the beginning of the Term of this Agreement.

In addition, the Employee's legal representatives shall receive payment for unreimbursed expenses.
5.2. Termination upon Disability. If, during the Term, the Employee shall become physically or mentally disabled, whether totally or partially, as determined by a medical doctor acceptable to both parties hereto, so that he is unable substantially to perform his services hereunder with or without reasonable accommodation for (i) a period of six consecutive months, or (ii) for shorter periods aggregating six months during any twelve-month period, the
Company may at any time after the last day of the sixth consecutive month of disability or the day on which the shorter periods of disability shall have equaled an aggregate of six months, by written notice to the Employee (but before the Employee has recovered from such disability), terminate the term of the Employee's employment hereunder. Notwithstanding such disability, the Company shall continue to pay the Employee an amount equal to sixty (60%) percent of the Annual Salary herein provided for in Section 3.1 up to and through the scheduled Term under Article 2 hereof, but not longer than three (3) years, but his Bonus shall be calculated on a pro rata basis through the end of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the sixth month of his disability. In addition, the Employee or his legal representatives shall receive payment for unreimbursed expenses. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, the amounts set forth in this Section 5.2 shall be reduced by the amount of any disability insurance payments received by the Employee under disability plans or policies of the Company.

As used herein the term for "Cause" shall be deemed to mean and include with respect to the Employee only chronic alcoholism, addiction to any illegal drugs, conviction of the Employee of any felony, or of any lesser crime or offense involving the property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or willful failure or refusal to substantially perform the services required of the Employee under this Agreement, following written notice by the Board of Directors to the Employee and Employee having failed to cure such failure within thirty days after such notice. In the event of a termination of the Employee for Cause, the Employee shall receive any unpaid Annual Salary in effect on the date immediately prior to such termination through the date of termination and payment for all unreimbursed expenses.
5.4. Voluntary Termination Without Good Reason. If the Employee terminates his employment for other than Good Reason, the Company shall pay the Employee the Employee's Annual Salary in effect on the date immediately prior to such termination through the date of termination and all unreimbursed expenses.
"Good Reason" means the occurrence, without the Employee's express written consent, of any of the following circumstances:
(i) the Company's failure to perform or observe any of the material terms or provisions of this Agreement;
(ii) the assignment to the Employee of any duties inconsistent with, or any substantial diminution in, such Employee's status or responsibilities as in effect on the date hereof, including imposition of travel obligations that are materially greater than is reasonably required by the Company's business;
(iii) (I) a reduction in the Employee's Annual Salary as in
effect on the date hereof, as that amount may be increased from time to time; or
(II) the failure to pay any agreed upon bonus award to which the Employee is
otherwise entitled, at the time such bonuses are usually paid;
(iv) a change in the principal place of the Employee's
employment, as in effect on the date hereof or as in effect after any subsequent
change to which the Employee consented in writing, to a location more than fifty
(50) miles from the Employee's residence in Manhattan on the date hereof;
(v) (I) the Company's failure to continue in effect any incentive compensation plan or stock option plan in which the Employee participates, unless the Company has provided an equivalent alternative compensation arrangement (embodied in an ongoing substitute or alternative plan) to the Employee, or (II) the Company's failure to continue the Employee's participation in any such incentive or stock option plan on substantially the same basis, both in terms of the amount of benefits provided and the level of the Employee's participation relative to other participants; or
(vi) the failure of the Company or any successor to obtain a satisfactory written agreement from any successor to assume and agree to perform this Agreement.
5.5. Other. If the Company terminates the
Employee's employment other than for Cause or if the Employee terminates
employment with the Company for Good Reason, the Company shall pay the Employee,
a total amount, in a lump sum cash payment, equal to the product of (i) the sum
of (x) the Employee's Annual Salary plus, at a minimum, (y) the Bonus paid to
the Employee for the year prior to his termination of employment, multiplied by
(ii) the greater of (x) the number of years (and portions thereof) remaining in
the Term or (y) three (3). In addition, the Employee shall receive all
unreimbursed expenses.
6. Change in Control. (a) If during the Term there should be a Change in Control (hereinafter defined), then the Employee shall, by written notice to the Company at any time within twelve months following a Change in Control, be entitled to terminate the Term and his employment hereunder for any reason or no reason, and within 10 business days following such notice, the Employer shall pay the Employee, as a termination payment, an amount equal to 299% of the average of the prior five calendar year's compensation (including bonuses, pension, profit sharing, health and life insurance benefits and 401(k) contributions), except that in no event shall the amount payable under this paragraph 6(a) exceed $100.00 less than the amount which would (when aggregated with any other amounts which would be subject to the "parachute payment" provisions hereinafter referred to) result in any part of a payment to otherwise be made under this paragraph 6(a) constituting a "parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code (the "Maximum Termination Payment"). The determination whether or not any part of such payment would constitute a "parachute payment" and the amount of the Maximum Termination Payment shall be made by the Company's regularly engaged independent accountants. In making the determination, the accountants shall rely on the Company's federal income tax returns and on the Code and the regulations thereunder, as then in effect, and may rely on the legislative and Internal Revenue Service reports issued in connection with the adoption of said Paragraph and regulations.
b) For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in Control" shall mean:
(i) either (x) any merger or consolidation of the Company into or with another corporation, or (y) the acquisition by another person, group or entity after the execution date of this Employment Agreement of beneficial ownership of more than 20% of the common stock of the Company (such person, group or entity reporting, or being required to report, the acquisition pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 of all the voting and investment powers of such stock), or
(ii) any sale by the Company of substantially all of the assets and business of Company for cash, stock, or any combination thereof, unless, immediately after such sale, the holders of Common Stock of the Company immediately prior to such sale own more than 80% or more of the voting capital stock of the acquiring corporation or, if the acquiring person or entity is not a corporation, more than 80% of the voting equity interests of such acquiring person or entity, or
(iii) if a majority of Company's board of directors consists of individuals who were not Incumbent Directors. "Incumbent Directors" shall mean directors who either(A) are directors of the Company as of the date hereof, or (B) are elected, or nominated for election, to the Board with the affirmative votes of at least a majority of the Incumbent Directors at the time of such election or nomination (but shall not include an individual whose election or nomination is in connection with an actual or threatened proxy contest relating to the election of directors to the Company).
(c) In the event that the Employeebrings an action to enforce the provisions of this Agreement after a Change in Control, the Company shall pay the legal expenses of the Employee during the proceeding; provided that the court having jurisdiction over the proceeding shall have the right to require the Employee, as part of any judgment against the Employee, to repay the Company for any monies received from the Company for such expenses.
7. Certain Restrictions.
7.1. Non-Competition. Subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1, for the duration of the Term and for a period of one year after termination of the Term for any reason, the Employee will not, directly or indirectly, as an officer, director, stockholder, partner, associate, employee, consultant or owner, become or be interested in, or associated with, any other corporation, firm or business engaged in a business which is the same as, similar to or competitive with the business of the Company; provided that the ownership by the Employee, directly or indirectly, of shares of stock of a corporation, which shares are regularly traded on a national securities exchange or on the over-the-counter market and which shares do not amount to the lesser of (a) five per cent of the issued and outstanding shares of such corporation, or (b) an aggregate market value in excess of $500,000, shall not, in any event, be deemed to be in violation of the provisions of this Section 7.1. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 7.1 shall not apply after a Change in Control or after the non-renewal of the Term pursuant to Article 2 hereof.
7.2. Mutual Non-Disparagement. During the Term and for a period of one year thereafter (regardless of any termination under Article 5 hereof), the Employee agrees that he will not publish or communicate to any person or entity any "Disparaging" (as defined below) remarks, comments or statements concerning the Company, its employees, agents, current and former directors and officers. In addition, during such period, the officers, directors and employees of the Company shall be instructed not to publish or communicate to any person or entity any Disparaging remarks, comments or statements concerning the Employee. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Disparaging" remarks, comments or statements are those that impugn the character, honesty, integrity or morality or business acumen or abilities in connection with any aspect of the operation of business of the individual or entity being disparaged.
8. Protection of Confidential Information.
8.1. Confidential Information. In view of the fact that the Employee's work for the Company will bring him into close contact with many confidential affairs of the Company not readily available to the public, the Employee agrees:
(a) To keep secret and retain in the strictest confidence all confidential matters of the Company, including, without limitation, trade "know-how", secrets, the names of its customers, suppliers and contractors, the Company's procedures and policies in purchasing and sales, including its pricing policies, operational methods and technical processes, and other business affairs of the Company, learned by him heretofore or hereafter, and not to disclose them to anyone outside of the Company, either during or after his employment with the Company, except in the course of performing his duties hereunder or with the Company's express written consent; and
(b) To deliver promptly to the Company on termination of his employment, all memoranda, notes, records, reports, manuals, drawings and other documents (and all copies thereof) relating to the Company's business and all property associated therewith, which he may then possess or have under his control.
(c) Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, confidential information shall not include information that is public knowledge (other than by acts by the Employee in violation of this Section 8.1) and the Employee shall be permitted to disclose information covered under this Section 8.1 if required by law, an order of court or a governmental agency with jurisdiction.
8.2. Survival. The provisions related to post-termination payments under Article 5, Article 7 and Article 8 shall survive any termination of this Agreement; provided that the provisions of Section 7.1 shall not apply after a Change in Control or after the non-renewal of the Term pursuant to Article 2 hereof.
8.3. Specific Performance. The parties recognize that, because of the nature of the subject matter of this Article 8, it would be impractical and extremely difficult to determine the Company's actual damages in the event of a breach of this Article 8 by the Employee. Accordingly, if the Employee commits a breach, or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of Section 8.1, the Company shall be entitled to have the provisions of said Sections specifically enforced by temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief without the posting of bond or other security by and court of competent jurisdiction, notwithstanding the provisions of Article 8 hereof.
9. Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other communications, required or permitted to be given hereunder, shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered personally, or mailed first-class, postage prepaid by registered or certified mail (notices shall be deemed to have been given when so delivered personally) or, if mailed, two days after the date of mailing, as follows (or to such other address as either party shall designate by notice so given to the other in accordance herewith):

10.1. Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the local laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely in New York. Any proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall be brought only in the courts of the State of New York, sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and the Employee and the Company consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts.
10.2. Section Headings. The article and section headings contained herein are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
10.3. Entire Agreement.

No representation, promise or inducement has been made by either party that is not embodied in this Agreement, and neither party shall be bound by or liable for any alleged representation, promise or inducement not so set forth.
10.4. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement, and the Employee's rights
and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned by the Employee; provided that
the Employee's legal representatives shall have the rights set forth in Article
5. The Company may assign its rights, together with its obligations, hereunder
in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or
substantially all of its business or assets; in any event the obligations of the
Company hereunder shall be binding on its successors or assigns, whether by
merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of its business
or assets.
10.5. Amendments, Modifications, etc. This Agreement may be amended, modified, superseded, canceled, renewed or extended and the terms or covenants hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by the party to be charged therewith. The failure of either party at any time or times to require performance of any provision hereof shall in no manner affect the right at a later time to enforce the same. No waiver by either party of the breach of any term or covenant contained in this Agreement, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such breach, or a waiver of the breach of any other term or covenant contained in this Agreement. The invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement shall in no way impair or affect the balance thereof, which shall remain in full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement on June 26, 2003.
