(b)           The Hawkins, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan and Trust (the “ESOP”) currently holds 2,312,625 shares of the Issuer’s common stock, representing 23% of the total outstanding shares.  The ESOP allows participants to direct the voting of shares allocated to their accounts, but since the Trustees may vote shares with respect to which no directions are received, the Trustees may be deemed to share voting power as to all of these shares.  In addition, certain Trustees, as individual participants in the ESOP, have the power to direct the voting of the following number of shares allocated to their personal accounts as of December 31, 2001:  John R. Hawkins, 128,424 shares, Kurt R. Norman, 29,594 shares, and Marvin E. Dee, 456 shares.  The Trustees also have dispositive power with respect to all 2,312,625 shares, provided that this power is limited by a requirement that the assets of the ESOP Trust must consist primarily of shares of the Issuer’s stock.  Each Trustee disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares attributed to him solely as a Trustee of the ESOP.

 


1              Mr. Hawkins has sole voting and dispositive power over all of these 43,210 shares, except 33,170 shares that Mr. Hawkins holds jointly with his wife as to which he shares voting and dispositive power.

2              These 15,310 shares include 1,428 shares held by Mr. Norman's wife as custodian for their children, and to which he disclaims beneficial ownership.
