Dear Stockholder:     
   
  On February 19, 1998, Intirion Corporation ("Intirion") mailed to you a
Notice of Special Meeting of Stockholders and a Prospectus/Proxy Statement
relating to the Special Meeting of Stockholders of Intirion (the "Intirion
Special Meeting") scheduled for Thursday, March 12, 1998. At the Intirion
Special Meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to
approve and adopt an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 22,
1997 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Intirion, Mac-Gray Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("Mac-Gray"), MI Acquisition Corp., a Delaware
corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mac-Gray ("Sub"), and Robert P.
Bennett, pursuant to which Sub will be merged with and into Intirion and
Intirion will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mac-Gray (the "Merger").
Upon the effectiveness of the Merger, holders of Intirion's Common Stock,
Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and vested, unexercised
warrants and options to purchase Intirion Common Stock will receive shares of
Mac-Gray's common stock, par value $.01 per share ("Mac-Gray Common Stock"),
and holders of Intirion's Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock will receive a
combination of Mac-Gray Common Stock and cash.     
   
  On March 4, 1998, Mac-Gray entered into a Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement
(the "Stock and Asset Agreement"), pursuant to which Mac-Gray will acquire one
hundred percent of the outstanding capital stock of Amerivend Corporation and
the assets of Amerivend Southeast Corporation. We are enclosing a
Prospectus/Proxy Statement Supplement (the "Supplement") to provide you with
information regarding the Stock and Asset Agreement and the transactions
contemplated thereby that may be relevant to your vote at the Intirion Special
Meeting. In addition, the Supplement restates Mac-Gray's earnings per share
data for all periods presented to give effect to Staff Accounting Bulletin No.
98, which was recently issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We
urge you to read the Supplement in conjunction with the original
Prospectus/Proxy Statement.     
   
  The Board of Directors of Intirion continues to believe that the Merger
Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are fair to, and in the
best interests of, Intirion and its securityholders. Accordingly, the Board of
Directors of Intirion continues to recommend that you vote in favor of the
Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby at the Intirion
Special Meeting.     
   
  WE HAVE ENCLOSED A RED PROXY CARD WITH THE SUPPLEMENT. PROXIES THAT HAVE
BEEN PROPERLY COMPLETED, DATED, SIGNED AND RETURNED PRIOR TO THE DISTRIBUTION
OF THE ACCOMPANYING SUPPLEMENT WILL BE VOTED AS DIRECTED THEREON FOR OR
AGAINST OR TO ABSTAIN WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPOSAL DESCRIBED IN THE SUPPLEMENT
AND THE PROSPECTUS/PROXY STATEMENT. IF YOU HAVE NOT PREVIOUSLY VOTED, OR IF
YOU WISH TO REVOKE OR CHANGE YOUR VOTE, PLEASE COMPLETE, DATE, SIGN AND RETURN
THE ENCLOSED RED PROXY CARD. IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY COMPLETED AND RETURNED A
PROXY CARD AND YOU DO NOT WISH TO REVOKE OR CHANGE YOUR VOTE, YOU DO NOT NEED
TO TAKE ANY ADDITIONAL ACTION.     
   
  If you have any questions concerning the Supplement or your vote, please
call Scott McDermott, Secretary of Intirion, at (781) 431-1700.     
   
  Thank you and I look forward to seeing you at the Intirion Special Meeting,
which will be held on Thursday, March 12, 1998 at 10:00 a.m., local time, at
Intirion's headquarters located at Ten Walpole Park South, Walpole,
Massachusetts.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS     
   
  On March 4, 1998, Mac-Gray entered into a Stock and Asset Purchase
Agreement, pursuant to which Mac-Gray will acquire one hundred percent of the
outstanding capital stock of Amerivend Corporation and the assets of Amerivend
Southeast Corporation (together, "Amerivend"). In addition to being the
largest provider of card and coin-operated laundry equipment in Florida,
Amerivend adds to Mac-Gray's route business in the Atlanta market. Amerivend
is also the principal distributor of Maytag commercial laundry products in
Alabama, Georgia and Florida. Founded in 1959, Amerivend had 1997 revenues of
$18.6 million and has offices in Miami, Orlando, Tampa and Atlanta. The
purchase price, which is subject to certain adjustments, will be approximately
$33.5 million in cash, including the payment of certain debt. The purchase
price will be funded by Mac-Gray by drawing on its existing credit facility.
The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including
regulatory filings and is expected to close within thirty days.

(1) The financial data for the year ended December 31, 1997 includes the
    results of the Sun Services Acquisition subsequent to the acquisition date
    of April 17, 1997.     
   
(2) The 1997 provision for income taxes includes a non-recurring charge of
    $4,037 as a result of the termination of Mac-Gray's S corporation status.
           
(3) Tax adjusted earnings per share data have been adjusted to give effect to
    Mac-Gray's operations as if Mac-Gray were subject to federal and state
    income taxes on a corporate level (at an estimated income tax of 40%)
    during the periods presented.     
   
(4) Mac-Gray adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS
    128) in 1997. In conjunction with the adoption of this standard, Mac-Gray
    has complied with SAB 98 recently issued by the SEC. Accordingly, earnings
    per share data have been restated for all periods presented to give effect
    to both pronouncements. Earnings per share data are reflective of the Mac-
    Gray Combination for all periods presented.     
   
(5) "EBITDA" is defined herein as income before provision for income taxes,
    plus depreciation and amortization expense and interest expense. EBITDA
    should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of
    operating results or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of
    liquidity and it is not a measure of performance or financial condition
    under generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA is presented
    because Mac-Gray's management believes that certain investors may find it
    to be a useful tool for measuring Mac-Gray's ability to meet its future
    debt service obligations, make capital expenditures and satisfy working
    capital requirements.     
   
(6) Shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock issued in connection with the Sun Services
    Acquisition are redeemable pursuant to a contractual arrangement.

 Unaudited Selected Pro Forma Combined Financial Data     
   
  The following unaudited selected pro forma combined financial data give
effect to the Merger as a pooling of interests. The unaudited selected pro
forma combined statement of income data combine Mac-Gray's historical results
for the three years ended December 31, 1997 with Intirion's historical results
for the three years ended June 30, 1997, giving effect to the Merger as if it
had occurred on January 1, 1995. The unaudited selected pro forma combined
balance sheet data combine Mac-Gray's and Intirion's consolidated balance
sheets as of December 31, 1997, giving effect to the Merger as if it had
occurred on that date.     
   
  The pro forma financial data do not purport to represent what Mac-Gray's
financial position or results of operations would have actually been had the
Merger occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented or to
project Mac-Gray's financial position or results of operations for any future
date or period. They do not include any one-time, non-recurring Merger-related
costs, estimated to be $600,000 in the aggregate, nor do they incorporate any
benefits from any potential cost savings or synergies following the Merger.
The unaudited selected pro forma combined financial data assume the exchange
of all of the outstanding Intirion Exchangeable Securities for Mac-Gray Common
Stock and approximately $1 million in cash consideration. The unaudited
selected pro forma financial data set forth below supersede the unaudited
selected pro forma financial data set forth on page 12 of the Prospectus/Proxy
Statement and should be read in conjunction with each of Mac-Gray's and
Intirion's Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations and the historical financial statements and notes
thereto of Mac-Gray and Intirion included in the Prospectus/Proxy Statement.

 Comparative Per Share Data     
   
  The following table sets forth certain historical per share data of Mac-Gray
and Intirion and combined per share data on an unaudited pro forma basis after
giving effect to the Merger on a pooling of interests basis assuming that
1,317,837 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock were issued in exchange for all of
the issued and outstanding Intirion Exchangeable Securities other than shares
of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock and assuming that 275,224 shares of Mac-
Gray Common Stock and approximately $1 million in cash were issued in exchange
for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Intirion Senior Preferred
Stock. The selected pro forma combined comparative per share data of Mac-Gray
and Intirion are derived from pro forma unaudited condensed combined financial
information, supersede the information set forth on page 14 of the
Prospectus/Proxy Statement and should be read in conjunction with the selected
historical audited and unaudited financial data and the historical audited and
unaudited financial statements of Mac-Gray and Intirion and the notes thereto
that are included elsewhere in this Supplement and in the Prospectus/Proxy
Statement. The unaudited pro forma per share data are presented for
illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the combined
financial position or results of operations of future periods or the results
that actually would have been realized had Mac-Gray and Intirion been a single
entity during the periods presented. Neither Mac-Gray nor Intirion paid any
cash dividends for the periods presented, other than in the case of
distributions to S corporation stockholders or preferred stockholders.

(a) Pro forma tax adjusted net income per share has been adjusted to give
    effect to Mac-Gray's operations as if Mac-Gray were subject to federal and
    state income taxes on a corporate level (at an estimated income tax of
    40%) during the periods presented.     
          
(b) Pro forma combined net income per share data for 1997 includes the results
    of Sun Services as if the Sun Services Acquisition had occurred on January
    1, 1997.     
   
(c) Historical per share data for Intirion are for the years ended June 30,
    1995, 1996, and 1997, respectively.     
   
(d) Pro forma net income per share amounts for Intirion have been calculated
    using an exchange ratio of 1.10 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock for each
    share of Intirion Common (and common equivalent) Stock exchanged. See Note
    1 to the Pro Forma Unaudited Condensed Combined Financial Information.
           
  On December 31, 1997, the book value of Mac-Gray Common Stock was $4.48 per
share and the book value of the Intirion Common Stock was ($0.72) per share.
On June 30, 1997 the book value of Intirion Common Stock was ($0.69) per
share. Historical book value per share for Intirion has been calculated
assuming conversion of all Intirion Common Stock equivalents using the
treasury stock method. The pro forma book value per share for the Mac-Gray
Common Stock as of December 31, 1997 after giving effect to the proposed
Merger would be $4.10. The pro forma book value of Intirion Common Stock at
such date after the Merger would be $4.51 per share based upon the issuance of
1,317,837 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock for all of the issued and
outstanding shares of Intirion Exchangeable Securities (other than shares of
Intirion Senior Preferred Stock) and the issuance of 275,224 shares of Mac-
Gray Common Stock and approximately $1 million in cash for approximately
100,000 shares of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock.

Dear Stockholder:
 
  You are cordially invited to attend a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the
"Intirion Special Meeting") of Intirion Corporation ("Intirion") to be held on
Thursday, March 12, 1998 at 10:00 a.m., local time, at Intirion's headquarters
located at Ten Walpole Park South, Walpole, Massachusetts.
 
  At the Intirion Special Meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote upon
a proposal to approve and adopt an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of
December 22, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Intirion, Mac-Gray
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Mac-Gray"), MI Acquisition Corp., a
Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mac-Gray ("Sub"), and
Robert P. Bennett, pursuant to which Sub will be merged with and into Intirion
and Intirion will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mac-Gray (the "Merger").
Upon the effectiveness of the Merger, holders of Intirion's Common Stock,
Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and vested, unexercised
warrants and options to purchase Intirion Common Stock, will receive shares of
Mac-Gray's common stock, par value $.01 per share ("Mac-Gray Common Stock"),
and holders of Intirion's Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock will receive a
combination of Mac-Gray Common Stock and cash. Additional information about
Mac-Gray, Intirion and the proposed Merger is included in the attached
Prospectus/Proxy Statement (the "Prospectus/Proxy Statement"), which I urge
you to read carefully.
 
  YOUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS CAREFULLY REVIEWED AND CONSIDERED THE TERMS AND
CONDITIONS OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND BELIEVES THAT THE MERGER IS FAIR TO
INTIRION AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF ITS STOCKHOLDERS. ACCORDINGLY, THE BOARD
OF DIRECTORS HAS APPROVED THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE IN
FAVOR OF THE APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT.
 
  You should read carefully the accompanying Notice of Special Meeting of
Stockholders and the Prospectus/Proxy Statement for details of the Merger and
additional related information.
 
  Whether or not you expect to attend the Intirion Special Meeting, it is very
important that your shares be represented. Please complete, sign and date the
enclosed proxy card and return it promptly in the enclosed postage-paid
envelope. If you attend the Intirion Special Meeting, you may vote in person
if you wish, even though you previously have returned your proxy card.
 
  Thank you and I look forward to seeing you at the Intirion Special Meeting.
 
                                          Very truly yours,

     COMMON STOCK, $.01 PAR VALUE      FOR SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO
                                              BE HELD ON MARCH 12, 1998
 
  This Prospectus/Proxy Statement (the "Prospectus/Proxy Statement") relates
to the proposed acquisition of Intirion Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("Intirion"), by Mac-Gray Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Mac-Gray"),
pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December
22, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Mac-Gray, MI Acquisition
Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mac-Gray
("Sub"), Intirion and Robert P. Bennett ("Bennett"). This Prospectus/Proxy
Statement is being furnished to stockholders of Intirion in connection with
the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of Intirion (the
"Intirion Board") for the special meeting of stockholders of Intirion to be
held on Thursday, March 12, 1998 at 10:00 a.m., local time, at Intirion's
headquarters located at Ten Walpole Park South, Walpole, Massachusetts and any
adjournments or postponements thereof (the "Intirion Special Meeting"). Only
Intirion stockholders of record at the close of business on Tuesday, February
17, 1998 (the "Record Date") will be entitled to vote at the Intirion Special
Meeting.
 
  At the Intirion Special Meeting, Intirion will present a proposal to adopt
the Merger Agreement. If the Merger Agreement is adopted and the other
conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement are satisfied, Sub will be merged
with and into Intirion, with Intirion continuing as the surviving corporation
(the "Surviving Corporation") and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mac-Gray (the
"Merger"). As provided in the Merger Agreement and described herein, all
issued and outstanding shares of Intirion's common stock, $.01 par value per
share ("Intirion Common Stock"), Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred
Stock, $.01 par value per share ("Intirion Series A Preferred Stock"), and
vested, unexercised warrants and options to purchase Intirion Common Stock
will be converted into an aggregate of 1,317,837 shares of common stock, $.01
par value per share, of Mac-Gray ("Mac-Gray Common Stock"), and all issued and
outstanding shares of Intirion's Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock, $.01 par
value per share ("Intirion Senior Preferred Stock"), will be converted into a
combination of Mac-Gray Common Stock and cash with an aggregate value not to
exceed $5,160,450. See "Summary of Prospectus/Proxy Statement--Terms of
Merger--Merger Consideration" and "The Merger--Merger Consideration." Ten
percent of the number of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock issued in connection
with the Merger shall be deposited with an escrow agent for the purpose of
satisfying certain claims for which Mac-Gray is indemnified under the Merger
Agreement. The shares deposited in escrow shall be deducted pro rata from the
shares allocable to each former holder of Intirion Common Stock, Intirion
Senior Preferred Stock, Intirion Series A Preferred Stock and vested,
unexercised warrants and options to purchase Intirion Common Stock
(collectively, the "Intirion Exchangeable Securities"). See "Summary of
Prospectus/Proxy Statement--Terms of Merger--Indemnification" and "The
Merger--Indemnification."
 
  Shares of Intirion Common Stock, Intirion Senior Preferred Stock and
Intirion Series A Preferred Stock (collectively, the "Intirion Voting Stock")
are the only securities of Intirion whose holders are entitled to vote upon
the Merger Agreement and any other proposals to be presented at the Intirion
Special Meeting. See "The Intirion Special Meeting--Record Date; Quorum;
Required Vote." The presence in person or by proxy of shares representing one-
third of the shares of the Intirion Voting Stock, one-third of the shares of
the Intirion Senior Preferred Stock and a majority of the shares of the
Intirion Series A Preferred Stock, in each case issued and outstanding as of
the Record Date, is required to constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business at the Intirion Special Meeting. The Merger Agreement must be
approved and adopted by holders of (i) shares representing a majority of the
voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of Intirion Voting Stock and
(ii) two-thirds of the issued and outstanding shares of each of the Intirion
Senior Preferred Stock and Intirion Series A Preferred Stock, in each case
entitled to vote at the Intirion Special Meeting. The directors and executive
officers of Intirion (and their affiliates) hold approximately 66% of the
combined voting power of the Intirion Voting Stock and 100% of the voting
power of each of the Intirion Series A Preferred Stock and the Intirion Senior
Preferred Stock. In
<PAGE>
 
addition, certain principal stockholders of Intirion, namely, Bennett, Gelco
Corporation, Eastech II Limited Partnership and Eastech III Limited
Partnership (collectively, the "Intirion Principal Stockholders"), have
entered into voting agreements with Mac-Gray, each dated as of December 22,
1997 (collectively, the "Voting Agreements"), pursuant to which, among other
things, they have agreed to vote their shares of Intirion Voting Stock in
favor of the Merger. See "Ancillary Agreements--Voting Agreements." As the
Intirion Principal Stockholders hold approximately 65% of the combined voting
power of the Intirion Voting Stock and 100% of the issued and outstanding
shares of each of the Intirion Series A Preferred Stock and the Intirion
Senior Preferred Stock, the approval of the Merger Agreement is assured.
 
  This Prospectus/Proxy Statement is also the Prospectus of Mac-Gray filed as
part of a registration statement on Form S-4 (the "Registration Statement")
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), with the

See "Ancillary Agreements--Voting Agreements."
 
TERMS OF THE MERGER
 
  General. Mac-Gray's acquisition of Intirion will be structured as a merger of
Sub with and into Intirion. Following the Merger, Intirion will be the
surviving corporation and will operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mac-
Gray. The Merger will become effective after the conditions specified in the
Merger Agreement have been met. Mac-Gray and Intirion have targeted early 1998
for completion of the Merger.
 
  Merger Consideration. At the time the Merger becomes effective (the
"Effective Time"), Mac-Gray shall issue to the holders of Intirion Exchangeable
Securities shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock and cash (the "Merger
Consideration") pursuant to the allocations described below. See "The Merger--
Merger Consideration."
 
    Intirion Senior Preferred Stock. The holders of Intirion Senior Preferred
  Stock shall receive a combination of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock (based
  on a value per share equal to $15.00) and cash that together shall have an
  aggregate value equal to the product of (i) $51.6045 multiplied by (ii) the
  aggregate number of shares of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock issued and
  outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, provided that such
  value shall not exceed $5,160,450. The amount of cash to be paid to the
  holders of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock shall be the lesser of (x)
  $1,032,090 or (y) 68,806 multiplied by the per share closing price of Mac-
  Gray Common Stock on the NYSE on the trading day immediately preceding the
  date on which the Merger is consummated (such consummation date, the
  "Closing Date") as reported in The Wall Street Journal (the "Senior Cash
  Consideration"), and the number of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock to be
  issued to the holders of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock shall be equal to
  the remainder of 344,030 less the quotient that is obtained when the Senior
  Cash Consideration is divided by 15 (the "Senior Stock Consideration").
 
    Intirion Series A Preferred Stock. The number of shares of Mac-Gray
  Common Stock allocated to the Intirion Series A Preferred Stock shall be
  1,317,837 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of
  shares of Intirion Common Stock into which the shares of Intirion Series A
  Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to or at the
  Effective Time are convertible multiplied by 16.4806 (such numerator, the
  "Series A Stock Value") and the denominator of which is the Total Intirion
  Common Equivalent Value (as defined below) (the "Series A Consideration").
  "Total Intirion Common Equivalent Value" means the sum of the following:
  (i) the Series A Stock Value, (ii) the Common Stock Value (as defined
  below), (iii) the $12.50 Warrant Value (as defined below), (iv) the $5.00
  Warrant Value (as defined below) and (v) the Total Option/Warrant Value (as
  defined below) immediately prior to the Effective Time.
 
    Intirion Common Stock. The number of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
  allocated to the Intirion Common Stock shall be 1,317,837 multiplied by a
  fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Intirion Common
  Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time
  multiplied by 16.4806 (such numerator, the "Common Stock Value") and the
  denominator of which is the Total Intirion Common Equivalent Value (the
  "Common Stock Consideration").
 
    $12.50 Warrants. The number of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock allocated
  to the warrants to purchase one or more shares of Intirion Common Stock at
  a price of $12.50 per share (the "$12.50 Warrants") shall be 1,317,837
  multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is 3.9806 multiplied by
  the
 
                                       3
<PAGE>
 
  number of shares of Intirion Common Stock into which the $12.50 Warrants
  issued and outstanding immediately prior to or at the Effective Time are
  convertible (such numerator, the "$12.50 Warrant Value") and the
  denominator of which is the Total Intirion Common Equivalent Value (the
  "$12.50 Warrant Consideration").
 
    $5.00 Warrants. The number of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock allocated
  to the warrants to purchase one or more shares of Intirion Common Stock at
  a price of $5.00 per share (the "$5.00 Warrants") shall be 1,317,837
  multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is 11.4806 multiplied by
  the number of shares of Intirion Common Stock into which the $5.00 Warrants
  issued and outstanding immediately prior to or at the Effective Time are
  convertible (such numerator, the "$5.00 Warrant Value") and the denominator
  of which is the Total Intirion Common Equivalent Value (the "$5.00 Warrant
  Consideration").
 
    Miscellaneous Warrants and Options. The number of shares of Mac-Gray
  Common Stock allocated to the outstanding warrants, other than the $12.50
  Warrants and the $5.00 Warrants (the "Miscellaneous Warrants"), and options
  (the "Intirion Options") that are convertible or exercisable, as the case
  may be, into one or more shares of Intirion Common Stock immediately prior
  to or at the Effective Time shall be 1,317,837 multiplied by a fraction,
  the numerator of which is the Total Option/Warrant Value (as defined below)
  and the denominator of which is the Total Intirion Common Equivalent Value
  (the "Option/Warrant Consideration"). "Total Option/Warrant Value" means an
  amount equal to the sum of all of the Individual Option/Warrant Values (as
  defined in the next sentence). "Individual Option/Warrant Value" means,
  with respect to each Miscellaneous Warrant and Intirion Option that is
  convertible or exercisable, as the case may be, into one or more shares of
  Intirion Common Stock immediately prior to or at the Effective Time, an
  amount equal to the product of (i) the remainder of 16.4806 minus the
  conversion or exercise price per share, as the case may be, of such
  Miscellaneous Warrant or Intirion Option multiplied by (ii) the number of
  shares of Intirion Common Stock for which such Miscellaneous Warrant or
  Intirion Option is then convertible or exercisable, as the case may be.
 
  HOLDERS OF INTIRION EXCHANGEABLE SECURITIES SHOULD BE AWARE THAT, ON THE
CLOSING DATE, TEN PERCENT (10%) OF THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF MAC-GRAY COMMON
STOCK TO WHICH EACH HOLDER OF INTIRION EXCHANGEABLE SECURITIES IS ENTITLED
SHALL BE PLACED IN ESCROW FOR THE PURPOSE OF SATISFYING CERTAIN CLAIMS FOR
WHICH MAC-GRAY IS INDEMNIFIED UNDER THE MERGER AGREEMENT. SEE "--TERMS OF THE
MERGER--INDEMNIFICATION" AND "ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS--ESCROW AGREEMENT."
 
  Exchange of Certificates. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time,
State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street Bank"), as exchange agent
for the Merger (the "Exchange Agent"), will send a transmittal letter to each
holder of Intirion Exchangeable Securities. The transmittal letter will contain
instructions with respect to the surrender of certificates representing
Intirion Exchangeable Securities to be exchanged for Mac-Gray Common Stock. See
"The Merger--Conversion of Intirion Exchangeable Securities; Exchange
Procedures."
 
  INTIRION SECURITYHOLDERS SHOULD NOT FORWARD CERTIFICATES FOR INTIRION
EXCHANGEABLE SECURITIES TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT UNTIL THEY HAVE RECEIVED
TRANSMITTAL LETTERS. INTIRION SECURITYHOLDERS SHOULD NOT RETURN CERTIFICATES
FOR INTIRION EXCHANGEABLE SECURITIES WITH THE ENCLOSED PROXY.
 
  Conditions to the Merger. The obligations of Mac-Gray and Intirion to
consummate the Merger are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions,
including but not limited to obtaining the approval of Intirion's stockholders,
obtaining requisite regulatory approvals, the continuing accuracy as of the
Effective Time of the representations and warranties made by Mac-Gray and
Intirion in the Merger Agreement and the receipt of the accountant's letter
with respect to the qualification of the Merger as a pooling of interests
transaction. Each party has the right to waive each of the closing conditions
referred to above. See "The Merger--Conditions of Merger," and "--Accounting
Treatment."
 
                                       4
<PAGE>
 
 
  Certain Covenants and Agreements. Intirion has made certain covenants and
agreements in the Merger Agreement relating to, among other things, the conduct
of its business pending the consummation of the Merger, including actions taken
in relation to issuing shares of stock, employment and compensation, payment of
dividends, acquisition transactions and other matters. Intirion and Bennett
have agreed that they will not solicit offers from third parties regarding a
potential acquisition of Intirion, and will notify Mac-Gray of any such offer
received by them. Mac-Gray has agreed, among other things, that each full-time
employee of Intirion immediately prior to or at the Effective Time who
continues his or her full-time employment with the Surviving Corporation after
the Effective Time will receive prior service credit under (i) Mac-Gray's
vacation benefits program, (ii) Mac-Gray's sick day policy, (iii) Mac-Gray's
401(k) plan and (iv) each other benefit program of Mac-Gray in which such
employee is eligible to participate and which has a prior service requirement,
in each case equal to the amount of time such employee was a full-time employee
of Intirion prior to the Effective Time. See "The Merger--Certain Covenants and
Agreements."
 
  Termination. The Merger Agreement is subject to termination by (a) the mutual
written consent of Mac-Gray and Intirion; or (b) by Intirion, provided that
neither Intirion nor Bennett is in material breach of the Merger Agreement, (i)
if Mac-Gray is in material breach of the Merger Agreement and such breach
remains uncured for a period of ten (10) business days after Intirion has given
written notice of such breach to Mac-Gray, or (ii) if Mac-Gray has explicitly
or by conduct repudiated the Merger Agreement and such repudiation remains
uncured for a period of ten (10) business days after Intirion has given written
notice thereof to Mac-Gray, or (iii) if by April 30, 1998, any of the
conditions precedent to Intirion's obligation to consummate the Merger have not
been satisfied, complied with or performed in all material respects (unless
such failure of satisfaction, noncompliance or nonperformance is the result
directly or indirectly of any action or failure to act on the part of Intirion
or Bennett) and Intirion has not waived such failure of satisfaction,
noncompliance or nonperformance; or (c) by Mac-Gray, provided that Mac-Gray is
not in material breach of the Merger Agreement, (x) if Intirion or Bennett is
in material breach of the Merger Agreement and such breach remains uncured for
a period of ten (10) business days after Mac-Gray has given written notice of
such breach to Intirion and, if applicable, Bennett, (y) if Intirion or Bennett
has explicitly or by conduct repudiated the Merger Agreement and such
repudiation remains uncured for a period of ten (10) business days after Mac-
Gray has given written notice thereof to Intirion and, if applicable, Bennett,
or (z) if by April 30, 1998, any of the conditions precedent to Mac-Gray's
obligation to consummate the Merger have not been satisfied, complied with or
performed in all material respects (unless such failure of satisfaction,
noncompliance or nonperformance is the result directly or indirectly of any
action or failure to act on the part of Mac-Gray) and Mac-Gray has not waived
such failure of satisfaction, noncompliance or nonperformance. See "The
Merger--Termination."
 
  Indemnification. Intirion and Bennett have agreed, and, if the Merger
Agreement is approved by Intirion's stockholders, such stockholders will agree
thereby, that ten percent (10%) of the number of shares of Mac-Gray Common
Stock issued in connection with the Merger (the "Escrowed Shares") will be
deducted pro rata from the shares allocable to each former holder of Intirion
Exchangeable Securities and held in escrow, pursuant to the terms of the escrow
agreement (the "Escrow Agreement") to be executed by Mac-Gray, Intirion,
Michael Shanahan, as agent for Intirion's stockholders (other than Gelco
Corporation), Gelco Corporation, State Street Bank, as escrow agent (the
"Escrow Agent"), and each holder of Intirion Exchangeable Securities, for the
purpose of satisfying certain claims for which Mac-Gray is indemnified under
the Merger Agreement arising out of or otherwise in respect of: (a) any breach
of any representation, warranty or covenant of Intirion or Bennett under the
Merger Agreement or in any certificate, schedule or exhibit delivered pursuant
thereto, or by reason of any claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted
growing out of any matter or thing constituting a breach of such
representations, warranties or covenants and (b) any liability or obligation of
or loss by Intirion for or with respect to (i) social security taxes for the
year ended December 31, 1994; (ii) Pennsylvania state taxes in excess of $2,000
in the aggregate for the years ended December 31, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992 and
1993 and (iii) the failure of Intirion to file any Annual Reports on Form 5500
with respect to any Employee Program (as defined in the Merger Agreement). No
indemnification shall be payable with respect to claims asserted pursuant to
clause (a) above unless and until the amount of all claims for indemnification
under such clause exceeds $300,000 in
 
                                       5
<PAGE>
 
the aggregate (the "Threshold"), whereupon the full amount of such claims shall
be recoverable. No indemnification shall be payable with respect to claims
asserted pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above after the earlier of (x) the first
anniversary of the Closing Date or (y) the date of issuance of the first
audited financial statements of Mac-Gray for the fiscal year ending December
31, 1998 (such earlier date, the "Expiration Date"); provided, however, that if
on or prior to the Expiration Date a specific state of facts shall have become
known which may, in the good faith judgment of Mac-Gray, give rise to a claim
for indemnification under clause (a) or (b) above and Mac-Gray shall have given
written notice to the Escrow Agent of such facts known by Mac-Gray at such
time, then the right to indemnification with respect to such claim shall remain
in effect without regard to when such matter shall be finally determined and
disposed of. All indemnification claims asserted under clause (a) or (b) above
shall be satisfied solely from the Escrowed Shares, provided that claims
asserted under clause (a) above that involve a fraudulent or intentional
misrepresentation made by Intirion to Mac-Gray or an intentional breach of the
Merger Agreement by Intirion or Bennett may also be satisfied from Bennett, and
provided further that the Threshold and the Expiration Date shall not apply in
the case of a fraudulent or intentional misrepresentation made by Intirion to
Mac-Gray or an intentional breach of the Merger Agreement by Intirion or
Bennett, and the Threshold shall not apply in the case of claims asserted under
clause (b) above. See "Ancillary Agreements-- Escrow Agreement" for a
description of the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement.
 
RECOMMENDATION OF THE INTIRION BOARD OF DIRECTORS
 
  The Intirion Board has unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and
determined that the Merger is fair to and in the best interests of Intirion and
its stockholders. THE INTIRION BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT HOLDERS OF
INTIRION VOTING STOCK VOTE TO APPROVE AND ADOPT THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND THE
MERGER. For a discussion of the factors considered by the Intirion Board in
reaching its decision to approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger, see
"Background of the Merger--Recommendation of the Intirion Board; Intirion's
Reasons for the Merger."
 
MAC-GRAY'S BOARD APPROVAL OF THE MERGER
 
  Mac-Gray's Board of Directors (the "Mac-Gray Board") has determined that the
Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are in the best
interests of Mac-Gray and, therefore, has unanimously approved the Merger
Agreement. In making this determination, the Mac-Gray Board and management
reviewed information about Intirion made available to them by Intirion's
management and other sources and assessed Intirion's financial condition. After
considering this information, the Mac-Gray Board concluded that the anticipated
business advantages of the Merger favored adoption of the Merger Agreement and
consummation of the Merger. See "Background of the Merger--Mac-Gray's Reasons
for the Merger."
 
CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
 
  The Merger is intended to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of
Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
Assuming the Merger is so treated for federal income tax purposes, the Merger
will not result in the recognition of gain or loss to Mac-Gray, Intirion, Sub
or the holders of Intirion Voting Stock except with respect to cash received in
the Merger, including in lieu of fractional shares, or pursuant to the exercise
of appraisal rights. The tax basis of Mac-Gray Common Stock received will
generally be the same as the tax basis of the Intirion Voting Stock surrendered
in the Merger, and the holding period of the Mac-Gray Common Stock received
will include the holding period of the Intirion Voting Stock surrendered if the
Intirion Voting Stock was held as a capital asset. Similar treatment should
apply to holders of the $12.50 Warrants and the $5.00 Warrants, and any
Miscellaneous Warrant or Intirion Option that is not a compensatory option
subject to special tax rules. The exchange of compensatory stock options (both
incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options) for Mac-Gray Common
Stock will be a taxable exchange; consequently holders of such options will
generally recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the Mac-
Gray Common Stock received in exchange for such options. See "Certain Federal
Income Tax Considerations."
 
                                       6
<PAGE>
 
 
ACCOUNTING TREATMENT
 
  The Merger is intended to qualify as a pooling of interests for accounting
and financial reporting purposes. Mac-Gray has received a letter from Price
Waterhouse LLP as of the date of the Merger Agreement to the effect that the
Merger is expected to qualify for pooling of interests accounting treatment.
See "The Merger--Accounting Treatment."
 
STOCK EXCHANGE LISTING
 
  Prior to the consummation of the Merger, the shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
to be issued in connection with the Merger will be authorized for listing
and/or trading on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance. Mac-Gray
Common Stock is currently traded on the NYSE under the symbol "TUC."
 
COMPARATIVE RIGHTS OF STOCKHOLDERS
 
  The rights of stockholders of Intirion currently are governed by Delaware
law, Intirion's Certificate of Incorporation (the "Intirion Charter") and
Intirion's By-laws (the "Intirion By-laws"). Upon consummation of the Merger,
securityholders of Intirion will become stockholders of Mac-Gray, which is also
a Delaware corporation, and their rights as stockholders of Mac-Gray will be
governed by Delaware law, Mac-Gray's Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation (the "Mac-Gray Charter") and Mac-Gray's By-laws (the "Mac-Gray
By-laws"). For a discussion of various differences between the rights of
stockholders of Intirion and the rights of stockholders of Mac-Gray, see
"Comparison of Rights of Stockholders of Mac-Gray and Intirion."
 
INTERESTS OF CERTAIN PERSONS
 
  In considering the recommendation of the Intirion Board with respect to the
Merger, stockholders of Intirion should be aware that certain members of
Intirion's management and the Intirion Board have certain interests in the
Merger that may present them with actual or potential conflicts of interest.
Consummation of the Merger will result in the accelerated vesting of options
under the 1989 Microfridge, Inc. Stock Option Plan to purchase 5,700 shares of
Intirion Common Stock held by Robert P. Bennett, Chairman of the Board,
President and Chief Executive Officer of Intirion, 20,000 shares of Intirion
Common Stock held by David Wilcox, Chief Financial Officer of Intirion, 10,000
shares of Intirion Common Stock held by Karen Fleming, Vice President of New
Business of Intirion, 5,300 shares of Intirion Common Stock held by Rosellen
Sullivan, Vice President of Academic Living Sales of Intirion, 400 shares of
Intirion Common Stock held by G. Bickley Stevens II, Director of Intirion,
7,200 shares of Intirion Common Stock held by Robert E. Ray, Director of
Intirion, and 6,800 shares of Intirion Common Stock held by John Fletcher,
Director of Intirion. Upon the consummation of the Merger, such vested options
will be exchanged for shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock in accordance with the
terms of the Merger Agreement. See "--Terms of the Merger--Merger
Consideration--Miscellaneous Warrants and Options" and "The Merger--Merger
Consideration--Miscellaneous Warrants and Options." Bennett will be appointed
Senior Vice President, Sales of Mac-Gray as of the Effective Time and will
receive, under Mac-Gray's 1997 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "1997 Stock
Plan"), options to purchase up to 90,000 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock at an
exercise price equal to the closing sale price of Mac-Gray Common Stock on the
NYSE on the date of grant. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Mac-Gray has
agreed to enter into a registration rights agreement (the "Registration Rights
Agreement") with each of the Intirion Principal Stockholders, pursuant to which
such stockholders are entitled to certain registration rights with respect to
the resale of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock received by them in the Merger.
The resale of such shares is covered by the Registration Statement of which
this Prospectus/Proxy Statement forms a part. See "Ancillary Agreements--
Registration Rights Agreement" and "Resales of Securities."
 
REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
 
  Currently, neither Mac-Gray nor Intirion is required to make any filings with
the Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC") or the Antitrust Division of the
Department of Justice (the "Antitrust Division") pursuant to the
 
                                       7
<PAGE>
 
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "Hart-
Scott Rodino Act"), in connection with the Merger. No assurances can be given,
however, that such filings will not be required prior to the Effective Time.
See "Regulatory Approvals Required." Mac-Gray and Intirion do not believe that
any other material governmental approvals, actions or filings, other than the
filing of a certificate of merger (together with any required related
certificates, the "Certificate of Merger") with the Secretary of State of the
State of Delaware, are or will be required for the consummation of the Merger.
 
RIGHTS OF DISSENTING STOCKHOLDERS
 
  Pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), any holder of
Intirion Voting Stock entitled to vote at the Intirion Special Meeting (i) who
files a demand for appraisal in writing prior to the vote taken at the Intirion
Special Meeting, (ii) whose shares are not voted in favor of the Merger
Agreement and (iii) who follows certain other procedural requirements, if the
Merger is consummated, shall be entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262
of the DGCL ("Section 262"). See "Rights of Dissenting Stockholders" and
Appendix B. The Intirion Principal Stockholders, by entering into the Voting
Agreements and agreeing to vote in favor of the Merger Agreement, have
effectively forfeited their appraisal rights with respect to their shares of
Intirion Voting Stock.
 
COMPARATIVE PER SHARE MARKET PRICE INFORMATION
 
  On December 22, 1997, the trading day prior to the announcement of the
Merger, the closing sales price of Mac-Gray Common Stock, as reported on the
NYSE, was $15.875 per share. On February 17, 1998, the closing sales price of
Mac-Gray Common Stock, as reported on the NYSE, was $15.5625 per share. As of
February 17, 1998, there were 11,581,126 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
outstanding held by 39 holders of record. See "Market Prices and Dividend Data"
for information regarding the lack of dividends on Mac-Gray Common Stock.
 
  Holders of Intirion Voting Stock are urged to obtain current market
quotations for Mac-Gray Common Stock prior to making any decisions with respect
to the Merger.
 
  No established public trading market exists for the Intirion Common Stock
and, accordingly, no price information is available with respect thereto. In
August and September of 1997, however, Intirion repurchased an aggregate of
6,485 shares of Intirion Common Stock from two former employees at a price per
share of $12.50. In addition, Intirion Options granted since April 1997 have
had exercise prices of $12.50 per share, which the Intirion Board determined to
be the fair market value per share of Intirion Common Stock at the time of such
grants. As of February 17, 1998, there were 759,688 shares of Intirion Common
Stock outstanding held by 71 holders of record, 100,000 shares of Intirion
Senior Preferred Stock outstanding held by one holder of record, and 40,000
shares of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock (each convertible into six shares
of Intirion Common Stock) outstanding held by two holders of record. Intirion
has never paid cash dividends on the Intirion Common Stock. See "Market Prices
and Dividend Data."

(1) The financial data for the year ended December 31, 1997 includes the
    results of the Sun Services Acquisition subsequent to the acquisition date
    of April 17, 1997.
(2) The 1997 provision for income taxes includes a non-recurring charge of
    $4,037 as a result of the termination of Mac-Gray's S corporation status.
   
(3) Tax adjusted earnings per share data have been adjusted to give effect to
    Mac-Gray's operations as if Mac-Gray were subject to federal and state
    income taxes on a corporate level (at an estimated income tax of 40%)
    during the periods presented.     
   
(4) Mac-Gray adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS
    128) in 1997. In conjunction with the adoption of this standard, Mac-Gray
    has complied with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (SAB 98) recently issued
    by the SEC. Accordingly, earnings per share data have been restated for all
    periods presented to give effect to both pronouncements. Earnings per share
    data are reflective of the Mac-Gray Combination for all periods presented.
        
(5) "EBITDA" is defined herein as income before provision for income taxes,
    plus depreciation and amortization expense and interest expense. EBITDA
    should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of
    operating results or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of
    liquidity and it is not a measure of performance or financial condition
    under generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA is presented because
    Mac-Gray's management believes that certain investors may find it to be a
    useful tool for measuring Mac-Gray's ability to meet its future debt
    service obligations, make capital expenditures and satisfy working capital
    requirements.
(6) Shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock issued in connection with the Sun Services
    Acquisition are redeemable pursuant to a contractual arrangement.

UNAUDITED SELECTED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA
 
  The following unaudited selected pro forma combined financial data give
effect to the Merger as a pooling of interests. The unaudited selected pro
forma combined statement of income data combine Mac-Gray's historical results
for the three years ended December 31, 1997 with Intirion's historical results
for the three years ended June 30, 1997, giving effect to the Merger as if it
had occurred on January 1, 1995. The unaudited selected pro forma combined
balance sheet data combine Mac-Gray's and Intirion's consolidated balance
sheets as of December 31, 1997, giving effect to the Merger as if it had
occurred on that date.
 
  The pro forma financial data do not purport to represent what Mac-Gray's
financial position or results of operations would have actually been had the
Merger occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented or to project
Mac-Gray's financial position or results of operations for any future date or
period. They do not include any one-time, non-recurring Merger-related costs,
estimated to be $600,000 in the aggregate, nor do they incorporate any benefits
from any potential cost savings or synergies following the Merger. The
unaudited selected pro forma combined financial data assume the exchange of all
of the outstanding Intirion Exchangeable Securities for Mac-Gray Common Stock
and approximately $1 million in cash consideration. The unaudited selected pro
forma financial data should be read in conjunction with each of Mac-Gray's and
Intirion's Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations and the historical financial statements and notes thereto
of Mac-Gray and Intirion included elsewhere in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.

    Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1997. The historical results of Sun
    Services for the period from April 1, 1997 to April 17, 1997 (the

    taxes on a corporate level (at an estimated income tax rate of 40%) during
    the periods presented.     
   
(4) Earnings per share data are based on the weighted average number of common
    stock and common stock equivalents outstanding of Mac-Gray and Intirion for
    each period assuming that 1,317,837 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock were
    issued in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Intirion
    Series A Preferred Stock, Intirion Common Stock, $12.50 Warrants, $5.00
    Warrants, and Miscellaneous Warrants and Intirion Options and assuming that
    275,224 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock and approximately $1 million were
    issued in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Intirion
    Senior Preferred Stock.     
(5)  Unaudited selected pro forma combined financial data were accumulated
     based on the historical balances reported by each entity and do not
     include any pro forma adjustments.
(6)  "EBITDA" is defined herein as income before provision for income taxes,
     plus depreciation and amortization expense and interest expense. EBITDA
     should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of
     operating results or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of
     liquidity and it is not a measure of performance or financial condition
     under generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA is presented
     because certain investors may find it to be a useful tool for measuring
     Mac-Gray's ability to meet its future debt service obligations, make
     capital expenditures and satisfy working capital requirements.

COMPARATIVE PER SHARE DATA
 
  The following table sets forth certain historical per share data of Mac-Gray
and Intirion and combined per share data on an unaudited pro forma basis after
giving effect to the Merger on a pooling of interests basis assuming that
1,317,837 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock were issued in exchange for all of
the issued and outstanding Intirion Exchangeable Securities other than shares
of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock and assuming that 275,224 shares of Mac-Gray
Common Stock and approximately $1 million in cash were issued in exchange for
all of the issued and outstanding shares of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock.
The selected pro forma combined comparative per share data of Mac-Gray and
Intirion are derived from pro forma unaudited condensed combined financial
information and should be read in conjunction with the selected historical
audited and unaudited financial data and the historical audited and unaudited
financial statements of Mac-Gray and Intirion and the notes thereto that are
included elsewhere in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement. The unaudited pro forma

(a) Pro forma tax adjusted net income per share has been adjusted to give
    effect to Mac-Gray's operations as if Mac-Gray were subject to federal and
    state income taxes on a corporate level (at an estimated income tax of 40%)
    during the periods presented.     
          
(b) Pro forma combined net income per share data for 1997 includes the results
    of Sun Services as if the Sun Services Acquisition had occurred on January

(c) Historical per share data for Intirion are for the years ended June 30,
    1995, 1996, and 1997, respectively.     
   
(d) Pro forma net income per share amounts for Intirion have been calculated
    using an exchange ratio of 1.10 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock for each
    share of Intirion Common (and common equivalent) Stock exchanged. See Note
    1 to the Pro Forma Unaudited Condensed Combined Financial Information.     
 
  On December 31, 1997, the book value of Mac-Gray Common Stock was $4.48 per
share and the book value of the Intirion Common Stock was ($0.72) per share. On
June 30, 1997 the book value of Intirion Common Stock was ($0.69) per share.
Historical book value per share for Intirion has been calculated assuming
conversion of all Intirion Common Stock equivalents using the treasury stock
method. The pro forma book value per share for the Mac-Gray Common Stock as of
December 31, 1997 after giving effect to the proposed Merger would be $4.10.
The pro forma book value of Intirion Common Stock at such date after the Merger
would be $4.51 per share based upon the issuance of 1,317,837 shares of Mac-
Gray Common Stock for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Intirion
Exchangeable Securities (other than shares of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock)
and the issuance of 275,224 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock and approximately
$1 million in cash for approximately 100,000 shares of Intirion Senior
Preferred Stock.

                                 RISK FACTORS
 
  Intirion's stockholders should carefully consider the following risk
factors, in addition to the other information contained in this
Prospectus/Proxy Statement, in connection with their decisions to approve the
Merger Agreement and thereby become holders of Mac-Gray Common Stock.
 
RISK FACTORS RELATED TO MAC-GRAY COMMON STOCK
 
  Implementation of Acquisition Strategy; Integration of Acquired
Businesses. Mac-Gray's growth strategy depends, in part, on its ability to
acquire and successfully integrate and operate additional businesses. In order
to pursue this strategy, Mac-Gray continually evaluates potential acquisition
candidates that provide services to the multi-housing market, including
laundry route businesses as well as businesses that could provide ancillary
services, such as photocopying, vending machines and telephones, to Mac-Gray's
customer base and target market. In connection with such evaluations, Mac-Gray
may, from time to time, enter into non-binding letters of intent with, and
conduct due diligence with respect to, potential acquisition candidates. The
success of any completed acquisition will depend in large measure on Mac-
Gray's ability to integrate the assets, maintain and improve the results of
operations and increase the revenue of the acquired business. The process of
integrating acquired businesses, and in particular, geographically diverse
operations or operations outside Mac-Gray's core business, with Mac-Gray's
business may involve unforeseen difficulties and may require a
disproportionate amount of Mac-Gray's financial and other resources, including
management time. While Mac-Gray generally believes that its management team
and business structure enable it to operate a significantly larger and more
diverse operation, there is no assurance that Mac-Gray will be able to
successfully integrate acquired businesses into its existing operations and to
implement effective cost savings programs.
 
  Mac-Gray has experienced increased competition in its acquisition
activities. Growing competition may increase purchase prices for future
acquisitions to levels that make the acquisitions less attractive or
uneconomical. In addition, future acquisitions accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting may result in the recording of goodwill, the
amortization of which may reduce Mac-Gray's net income. If further
acquisitions are made, Mac-Gray expects to continue to use cash and
securities, including shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock, as consideration for
such acquisitions. Use of Mac-Gray Common Stock as acquisition consideration
may result in dilution to Mac-Gray's stockholders. In the event that Mac-Gray
Common Stock does not maintain a sufficient valuation or if potential
acquisition candidates are unwilling to accept shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
as consideration, Mac-Gray will be required to use more cash resources or
other consideration to continue its acquisition program. In addition, if Mac-
Gray is unable to generate sufficient cash for further acquisitions from
existing operations, Mac-Gray's acquisition program could be adversely
affected unless Mac-Gray is able to obtain additional capital through external
financings or can borrow sufficient amounts. Any such debt financing will
result in additional leverage and any further equity financing may result in
dilution to Mac-Gray's stockholders. In addition, Mac-Gray is currently
restricted in its ability to acquire or operate laundry rooms in multi-housing
facilities in the District of Columbia, Maryland, Tennessee, Virginia and West
Virginia pursuant to a non-competition agreement entered into in connection
with a transaction consummated in 1990. This restriction on Mac-Gray's
activities, which limits Mac-Gray's access to a geographic segment of the
market, terminates pursuant to the terms of such agreement upon certain
changes in Mac-Gray's ownership and will otherwise expire in September 2000.
There can be no assurance that suitable additional acquisitions can be
identified, financed, consummated on acceptable terms and integrated into Mac-
Gray's operations or that future acquisitions will be financially and
operationally successful. Failure to identify, finance and consummate
acquisitions on acceptable terms, or to integrate acquired operations into
Mac-Gray's operations could have a material adverse effect on Mac-Gray's
business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. See "Mac-
Gray's Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources" and "Description of Mac-Gray--
Company Strategy."
 
  Competition. The card and coin-operated laundry services industry is highly
competitive. In most of Mac-Gray's markets, laundry services may be available
through property owners and managers that operate their own laundry rooms
("Self-Owners"), private, family-owned businesses or large regional and
national laundry services companies. In the competition to supply services to
property owners, local private businesses tend to have long-standing
relationships with customers in their specific geographic market, and the
larger companies
 
                                      15
<PAGE>
 
participating in the industry consolidation, two of which have significantly
larger installed machine bases than Mac-Gray's, tend to have significant
operational and managerial resources to devote to expansion and to capture
additional market share. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that Mac-Gray
will be able to compete effectively in any specific geographic location in the
business of supplying laundry equipment services to property owners and
managers or in the acquisition of other businesses. See "Description of Mac-
Gray-- Competition."
 
  Dependence Upon Senior Executives. Mac-Gray is currently dependent to a
significant degree upon the ability and experience of four senior executives:
Stewart Gray MacDonald, Jr., John S. Olbrych, Neil F. MacLellan, III and
Patrick A. Flanagan. Mac-Gray has elected not to enter into employment
agreements with any of these executives. Mac-Gray's preference to not utilize
employment agreements for its senior executives may affect Mac-Gray's ability
to attract and retain senior executives in the future. The loss of any of Mac-
Gray's senior executives could adversely affect Mac-Gray's ability to maintain
its current operating performance or to achieve growth through acquisitions.
See "Management of Mac-Gray."
 
  Significant Capital Expenditures; Additional Financings. The industry in
which Mac-Gray operates is capital intensive. Accordingly, Mac-Gray must
continue to make capital expenditures in order to periodically replace its
existing equipment. In addition, Mac-Gray's plan to utilize newly available
smart card based technologies with its equipment will also result in
significant capital expenditures. While Mac-Gray anticipates that its existing
capital resources, as well as cash from operations, will be adequate to
finance anticipated capital expenditures, there can be no assurance that such
resources or cash flows will be sufficient or that the incremental revenue and
cost efficiencies associated with technological enhancements, such as the
smart card, will justify the significant capital expenditures. To the extent
that its available resources are insufficient to fund capital requirements,
Mac-Gray may need to raise additional funds through public or private
financings that may or may not be on terms favorable to Mac-Gray and, in the
case of equity financings, could result in dilution to Mac-Gray's
stockholders. See "Mac-Gray's Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital
Resources" and "Description of Mac-Gray--Card and Coin-Operated Laundry Route
Business" and "--Technology."
 
  Uncertainty of Market Acceptance of New Products and Services. Mac-Gray is
currently introducing, and intends to introduce in the future, new products
and services utilizing smart card based technologies. While Mac-Gray believes
that cashless transactions will be attractive to its customers and will
provide Mac-Gray with certain benefits, there can be no assurance that there
will be widespread acceptance of these products by property owners, managers,
colleges and universities and residents, or that technical or operational
problems will not arise from their implementation. A lack of market acceptance
of these new products and services could have a material adverse effect on
Mac-Gray's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
See "Description of Mac-Gray--Technology."
 
  Dependence Upon Lease Renewals. Mac-Gray's business is highly dependent upon
the renewal of its leases with property owners, colleges and universities and
public housing authorities. Mac-Gray has traditionally relied upon exclusive,
long-term leases with its customers, as well as frequent customer interaction
and an historical emphasis on customer service, to assure continuity of
financial and operating results. There can be no assurance that Mac-Gray will
be able to continue to secure long-term exclusive leases with its customers or
that it will continue to successfully renew expiring leases. Any failure by
Mac-Gray to continue to obtain long-term exclusive leases with a substantial
number of its customers, or to successfully renew its existing leases as they
expire, could have a material adverse effect on Mac-Gray's business, results
of operations, financial condition and prospects. In addition, Mac-Gray has
occasionally experienced loss of business when property owners or management
companies choose to vacate properties as a result of economic downturns that
impact occupancy levels. There can be no assurance that future economic
downturns will not result in similar losses of business. See "Description of
Mac-Gray--Card and Coin-Operated Laundry Route Business--Facility Leasing."
 
  Dependence Upon Certain Suppliers. Mac-Gray currently purchases more than
90% of the equipment that it utilizes in its laundry route business from
Maytag. In addition, Mac-Gray derives a significant amount of its
 
                                      16
<PAGE>
 
non-laundry route revenue, as well as certain competitive advantages, from its
position as a distributor of Maytag commercial laundry products. Although the
purchase and distribution agreements between Mac-Gray and Maytag are
terminable by either party upon written notice, Mac-Gray has never had such an
agreement terminated by Maytag. Mac-Gray also currently purchases
substantially all of its smart card based equipment from Schlumberger
Technologies, Inc. ("Schlumberger"), a manufacturer of card based electronic
transaction systems. In the future, Mac-Gray may choose to continue to rely
substantially on the Schlumberger technology and its relationship with
Schlumberger in general. A termination of, or substantial revision of the
terms of, the contractual arrangements or business relationships with Maytag
or Schlumberger could have a material adverse effect on Mac-Gray's business,
results of operations, financial condition and prospects. See "Description of
Mac-Gray--Technology" and "--Laundry Equipment Sales, Leasing and Service."
 
  Restrictions Imposed by Mac-Gray's Indebtedness. Mac-Gray has a credit
agreement with State Street Bank and CoreStates Bank, which provides Mac-Gray
with a $50.0 million revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility"). In the
event Mac-Gray borrows significant amounts under the Credit Facility, such
level of indebtedness could have important consequences to Mac-Gray and its
stockholders, including the following: (i) a substantial portion of Mac-Gray's
cash flow from operations would need to be dedicated to the payment of the
principal of and interest on such indebtedness and would not be available for
other purposes; (ii) the ability of Mac-Gray to obtain financing in the future
for working capital needs, capital expenditures, acquisitions, investments,
general corporate purposes or other purposes could be materially limited or
impaired; and (iii) Mac-Gray's level of indebtedness could reduce Mac-Gray's
flexibility to respond to changing business and economic conditions. The
Credit Facility contains various covenants limiting the discretion of Mac-
Gray's management with respect to certain business matters, including
financial and other operating covenants. Failure to comply with any such
covenants, which failure is not waived by the lender, would permit the lender
to accelerate the maturity of the loan, which could have a material adverse
effect on Mac-Gray's business, results of operations, financial condition and
prospects. See "Mac-Gray's Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources."
 
  Voting Control by Principal Stockholders, Directors and Executive
Officers. After giving effect to the Merger, the principal stockholders,
directors and executive officers of Mac-Gray and their affiliates will
beneficially own in the aggregate approximately 53% of the outstanding shares
of Mac-Gray Common Stock. This percentage ownership does not include options
to purchase 428,315 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock (options to acquire 80,330
shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock are currently exercisable) held by certain of
these persons, which, if exercised in whole or in part, will further
concentrate ownership of Mac-Gray Common Stock. As a result, the above-
referenced stockholders will retain the voting power required to elect all of
Mac-Gray's directors and to approve all other matters requiring approval by a
majority of the stockholders of Mac-Gray including, in many cases, significant
corporate transactions, such as mergers and sales of all or substantially all
of Mac-Gray's assets. Such concentration of ownership, together, in some
cases, with certain provisions of the Mac-Gray Charter and the Mac-Gray By-
laws and certain sections of the DGCL, may have the effect of delaying or
preventing a change in control of Mac-Gray. See "--Anti-takeover Effect of
Certificate of Incorporation and By-law Provisions and Delaware Law,"

Stockholders of Mac-Gray."
 
  Common Stock Contingent Repurchase Obligation. Mac-Gray is obligated to
repurchase up to 612,026 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock issued in connection
with the Sun Services Acquisition at a purchase price of $12.74 per share in
the event the holder or holders of such shares elect to require Mac-Gray to
repurchase such shares (the "Put Right"). The Put Right terminates on October
22, 2000. There can be no assurance that the holder or holders of such shares
will not exercise the Put Right, nor can there be any assurance that, once
exercised, Mac-Gray will be able to obtain financing to satisfy such Put Right
on terms satisfactory to Mac-Gray, if at all. In the event Mac-Gray becomes
required to repurchase such shares, it may be required to incur additional
indebtedness under its Credit Facility to fund such repurchase. If Mac-Gray
were unable to borrow such funds under its Credit Facility, Mac-Gray would
need to pursue alternative financing sources which, if available, might be at
higher interest rates than presently available under the Credit Facility. See

Relationships and Related Transactions."
 
  Anti-takeover Effect of the Mac-Gray Charter, the Mac-Gray By-laws and
Delaware Law. Certain provisions of the Mac-Gray Charter and the Mac-Gray By-
laws, certain sections of the DGCL and the ability of the Mac-Gray Board to
issue shares of preferred stock and to establish the voting rights,
preferences and other terms thereof, may be deemed to have an anti-takeover
effect and may discourage takeover attempts not first approved by the Mac-Gray
Board, including takeovers which certain stockholders may deem to be in their
best interests. These provisions and the ability of the Mac-Gray Board to
issue preferred stock without further action by stockholders could delay or
frustrate the removal of incumbent directors or the assumption of control by
stockholders, even if such removal or assumption of control would be
beneficial to stockholders. These provisions also could discourage or make
more difficult a merger, tender offer or proxy contest, even if such events
would be beneficial, in the short term, to the interests of stockholders. Such
anti-takeover provisions include, among other things, a classified Mac-Gray
Board serving staggered three-year terms, the elimination of stockholder
voting by written consent, the absence of cumulative voting for directors, the
removal of directors only for cause, the vesting of exclusive authority in the
Mac-Gray Board to determine the size of the Mac-Gray Board and (subject to
certain limited exceptions) to fill vacancies thereon, the vesting of
exclusive authority in the Mac-Gray Board (except as otherwise required by
law) to call special meetings of stockholders, and certain advance notice
requirements for stockholder proposals and nominations for election to the
Mac-Gray Board. Mac-Gray is subject to Section 203 of the DGCL ("Section 203")
which, in general, imposes restrictions upon certain acquirors (including
their affiliates and associates) of 15% or more of Mac-Gray Common Stock. See
"Description of Mac-Gray Capital Stock--Certain Provisions of the Mac-Gray
Charter and the Mac-Gray By-laws" and "--Statutory Business Combination
Provision."
 
  Potential Volatility of Stock Price. The trading price of Mac-Gray Common
Stock may be subject to fluctuations in response to quarter-to-quarter
variations in operating results, changes in earnings estimates by investment
analysts or changes in business or regulatory conditions affecting Mac-Gray,
its customers or its competitors. The stock market historically has
experienced volatility which sometimes has been unrelated to the operating
performance of such companies. These market fluctuations may adversely affect
the price of Mac-Gray Common Stock.
 
  Absence of Dividends. Mac-Gray intends to retain earnings to finance the
growth and development of its business and does not anticipate paying cash
dividends in the foreseeable future. Declaration of dividends will in the
future depend upon, among other things, Mac-Gray's results of operations,
financial condition, acquisitions, capital requirements and general business
condition. The Credit Facility also restricts dividend payments in certain
limited circumstances. See "Mac-Gray's Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital
Resources."
 
  Material Benefits to Certain Insiders. Mac-Gray is obligated to make certain
payments to a current director of Mac-Gray as a result of an agreement entered
into in connection with Mac-Gray's acquisition of Sun Services, which was
owned by such director. In addition, Mac-Gray is obligated to make certain
payments to the wife of Mac-Gray's co-founder and former Chief Executive
Officer for the remainder of her life. See "Management of Mac-Gray--Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions."
 
RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE MERGER
 
  Fixed Exchange Ratio Despite Potential Changes in Stock Price. The
consideration being paid by Mac-Gray to acquire Intirion is fixed and will not
be adjusted in the event of any increase or decrease in the price of Mac-Gray
Common Stock. The price of Mac-Gray Common Stock at the Effective Time may
vary from its price at the date of this Prospectus/Proxy Statement and at the
date of the Intirion Special Meeting. Such variations may be the result of
changes in the business, operations or prospects of Mac-Gray, market
assessments of the likelihood that the Merger will be consummated, the timing
thereof, the prospects of the Merger and post-Merger operations, regulatory
considerations, general market and economic conditions and other factors.
Because the
 
                                      18
<PAGE>
 
Effective Time may occur at a date later than the Intirion Special Meeting,
there can be no assurance that the price of Mac-Gray Common Stock on the date
of the Intirion Special Meeting will be indicative of its price at the
Effective Time. The Merger Agreement provides that the Closing Date will occur
on the third business day following the satisfaction or waiver of the
conditions to closing set forth in the Merger Agreement. Stockholders of
Intirion are urged to obtain current market quotations for Mac-Gray Common
Stock.
 
  Nonrealization of Synergies. The Merger involves the integration of two
companies that have previously operated independently. No assurance can be
given that Mac-Gray will integrate the respective operations of Mac-Gray and
Intirion without encountering difficulties or experiencing the loss of key
Intirion personnel or that the benefits expected from such integration will be
realized. In addition, there can be no assurance that Mac-Gray will realize
anticipated synergies from the Merger.
 
  Restrictions on Transfer of Mac-Gray Common Stock. Ten percent (10%) of the
shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock issued in connection with the Merger will be
withheld ratably from the stock component of the Merger Consideration payable
to holders of Intirion Exchangeable Securities and held in escrow to indemnify
Mac-Gray in respect of certain claims under the Merger Agreement. The escrow
will expire on the earlier of (a) the first (lst) anniversary of the Closing
Date and (b) the date of issuance of the first audited financial statements of
Mac-Gray for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1998, provided that the
escrow may be extended in certain circumstances until unresolved claims are
resolved. During the escrow period, the shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
subject to the escrow may not be transferred by stockholders. See "Ancillary
Agreements-- Escrow Agreement." Neither Mac-Gray nor Intirion can predict the
price at which shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock will be trading at the end of
the escrow period.
 
  Interests of Certain Persons in the Transactions. In considering the
recommendation of the Intirion Board with respect to the Merger, stockholders
of Intirion should be aware that certain members of Intirion's management and
the Intirion Board have certain interests in the Merger that may present them
with actual or potential conflicts of interest. Consummation of the Merger
will result in the accelerated vesting of options under the 1989 Microfridge,
Inc. Stock Option Plan to purchase 5,700 shares of Intirion Common Stock held
by Robert P. Bennett, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of
Intirion, 20,000 shares of Intirion Common Stock held by David Wilcox, Chief
Financial Officer of Intirion, 10,000 shares of Intirion Common Stock held by
Karen Fleming, Vice President of New Business of Intirion, 5,300 shares of
Intirion Common Stock held by Rosellen Sullivan, Vice President of Academic
Living Sales of Intirion, 400 shares of Intirion Common Stock held by G.
Bickley Stevens II, Director of Intirion, 7,200 shares of Intirion Common
Stock held by Robert E. Ray, Director of Intirion, and 6,800 shares of
Intirion Common Stock held by John Fletcher, Director of Intirion. Upon the
consummation of the Merger, such vested options will be exchanged for shares
of Mac-Gray Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.
See "The Merger--Merger Consideration--Miscellaneous Warrants and Options."
Bennett will be appointed Senior Vice President, Sales of Mac-Gray as of the
Effective Time and will receive under the 1997 Stock Plan options to purchase
up to 90,000 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the
closing sale price of Mac-Gray Common Stock on the NYSE on the date of grant.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Mac-Gray has agreed to enter into the
Registration Rights Agreement with each of the Intirion Principal
Stockholders, pursuant to which such stockholders are entitled to certain
registration rights with respect to the resale of shares of Mac-Gray Common
Stock received by them in the Merger. The resale of such shares is covered by
the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus/Proxy Statement forms a
part. See "Ancillary Agreements--Registration Rights Agreement" and "Resales
of Securities."
 
  Lack of a Fairness Opinion. Securityholders of Intirion should be aware that
Intirion did not retain a financial advisor to assist it in its negotiations
with Mac-Gray (including, without limitation, rendering a fairness opinion)
and its consideration of other alternative transactions available to Intirion.
In reaching its conclusion not to retain a financial advisor, the Intirion
Board considered the expertise and experience of the non-employee members of
the Intirion Board, which include: (i) the President of a venture capital firm
currently undertaking investment banking engagements; (ii) a former Vice
President of the Gillette Company currently serving as an investor,
independent director and business advisor to emerging business enterprises;
(iii) a management consultant specializing in strategic development of growth
companies; and (iv) an officer in General Electric
 
                                      19
<PAGE>
 
Capital's Equity Capital Group who formerly served as an executive of a
private equity investment firm. As a result, the Intirion Board was confident
that it possessed the sophistication and expertise to evaluate the fairness of
the Merger and to recommend it to Intirion's securityholders consistent with
its fiduciary duties without incurring the expense of retaining a financial
advisor.
 
  Federal Income Tax Consequences. Securityholders of Intirion should be aware
that Intirion did not and will not obtain either a private letter ruling from
the Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") or a tax opinion with respect to
the federal income tax consequences of the Merger. It is possible that the
Service will assert that the Merger should not be treated as a
"reorganization" under the Code and that the tax consequences to
securityholders will be materially different from those set forth under
"Certain Federal Income Tax Considerations." One of the several requirements
for the Merger to be treated as a reorganization is that, as of the Effective
Time, the former holders of Intirion Voting Stock, as a group, must have no
plan or intention to dispose of a number of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
received by them in the Merger that represents a significant percentage
(approximately 50%) by value of the total outstanding Intirion Voting Stock as
of the Effective Time. There can be no assurance that the former Intirion
shareholders will not choose to dispose of their shares of Mac-Gray Common
Stock after the Merger, and the Service could assert that any such
dispositions were pursuant to a plan in existence at the Effective Time and
that such dispositions therefore affected the requirements for tax-free
treatment.
 
                         THE INTIRION SPECIAL MEETING
 
  At the Intirion Special Meeting or any adjournments or postponements
thereof, holders of Intirion Voting Stock will be asked to approve and adopt
the Merger Agreement.
 
  THE INTIRION BOARD HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE MERGER AGREEMENT, BELIEVES
THAT APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT IS IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF
INTIRION AND ITS SECURITYHOLDERS AND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT HOLDERS OF
INTIRION VOTING STOCK VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE MERGER
AGREEMENT.
 
RECORD DATE; QUORUM; REQUIRED VOTE
 
  The Record Date for the determination of holders of Intirion Voting Stock
entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Intirion Special Meeting is
Tuesday, February 17, 1998. Only holders of record of shares of Intirion
Voting Stock at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to
notice of, and to vote at, the Intirion Special Meeting or any adjournments or
postponements thereof. As of the Record Date, there were issued and
outstanding 759,688 shares of Intirion Common Stock held by 71 holders of
record, 100,000 shares of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock held by one holder
of record and 40,000 shares of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock held by two
holders of record. The holders of Intirion Common Stock are entitled to one
vote per share, the holders of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock are entitled
to six votes per share (one vote for each share of Intirion Common Stock into
which they are convertible) and the holders of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock
are entitled to one vote for each share of Intirion Common Stock for which
such holder's warrant is then exercisable. The presence in person or by proxy
of shares representing one-third of the shares of the Intirion Voting Stock,
one-third of the shares of the Intirion Senior Preferred Stock and a majority
of the shares of the Intirion Series A Preferred Stock, in each case issued
and outstanding as of the Record Date, is required to constitute a quorum for
the transaction of business at the Intirion Special Meeting. The Merger
Agreement must be approved and adopted by holders of (i) shares representing a
majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of Intirion
Voting Stock and (ii) two-thirds of the issued and outstanding shares of each
of the Intirion Senior Preferred Stock and Intirion Series A Preferred Stock,
in each case entitled to vote at the Intirion Special Meeting. Abstentions and
broker non-votes are considered present for purposes of determining a quorum
and will have the same effect as a vote against the Merger Agreement.
 
 
                                      20
<PAGE>
 
  In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Intirion
Principal Stockholders (who control approximately 65% of the combined voting
power of the Intirion Voting Stock and hold 100% of the issued and outstanding
shares of each of the Intirion Senior Preferred Stock and the Intirion Series
A Preferred Stock) entered into the Voting Agreements pursuant to which they
agreed, among other things, to vote all of the shares of Intirion Voting Stock
controlled by them in favor of the Merger and the Merger Agreement and against
other business combinations and actions which could interfere with the Merger.
See "Ancillary Agreements--Voting Agreements."
 
SOLICITATION AND VOTING OF PROXIES
 
  Holders of Intirion Voting Stock on the Record Date are entitled to cast
their votes, in person or by properly executed proxy, at the Intirion Special
Meeting. All shares represented at the Intirion Special Meeting by properly
executed proxies received prior to or at the Intirion Special Meeting and not
properly revoked will be voted at the Intirion Special Meeting in accordance
with the instructions indicated in such proxies. If no instructions are
indicated, such proxies will be voted FOR approval of the Merger Agreement.
The Intirion Board does not know of any matters, other than the Merger
Agreement, that will come before the Intirion Special Meeting.
 
  If a quorum is not present at the time the Intirion Special Meeting is
convened, or if for any other reason Intirion believes that additional time
should be allowed for the solicitation of proxies or for the satisfaction of
the conditions to the Merger or the transactions contemplated thereby,
Intirion may adjourn the Intirion Special Meeting with a vote of the holders
of shares representing a majority of the voting power of the Intirion Voting
Stock present at such meeting. If Intirion proposes to adjourn the Intirion
Special Meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy card will vote only
those shares for which they have authority to vote in favor of the Merger
Agreement in favor of such adjournment. The persons named in the enclosed
proxy card will not vote any shares which have voted against the Merger
Agreement in favor of such adjournment.
 
  Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked in the
following manner by the person giving it at any time before it is voted.
Proxies may be revoked by (i) filing with the Secretary of Intirion, at or
before the Intirion Special Meeting, a written notice of revocation bearing a
date later than the date of the proxy, (ii) duly executing a subsequent proxy
relating to the same shares and delivering it to the Secretary of Intirion at
or before the Intirion Special Meeting or (iii) attending the Intirion Special
Meeting and voting in person (although attendance at the Intirion Special
Meeting will not in and of itself constitute revocation of a proxy). Any
written notice revoking a proxy should be sent to Intirion, Ten Walpole Park
South, Walpole, Massachusetts 02081, Attention: Scott F. McDermott, Secretary.
 
  Proxies are being solicited by and on behalf of the Intirion Board. All
expenses of this solicitation, including the cost of preparing and mailing
this Prospectus/Proxy Statement, will be borne by Intirion. In addition to
solicitation by use of the mails, proxies may be solicited by directors,
officers and employees of Intirion in person or by telephone, telegram or
other means of communications. Such directors, officers and employees will not
be additionally compensated, but may be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses
in connection with such solicitation. Arrangements will be made with
custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for forwarding of proxy solicitation
materials to beneficial owners of Intirion Voting Stock held of record by such
persons, and Intirion may reimburse such custodians, nominees and fiduciaries
for reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith.

                           BACKGROUND OF THE MERGER
 
GENERAL BACKGROUND OF THE MERGER
 
  Intirion and Mac-Gray had preliminary discussions regarding an acquisition
of Intirion by Mac-Gray in April 1997. Stewart G. MacDonald, Jr., Chairman of
the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Mac-Gray, Robert P. Bennett, Chairman
of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Intirion, as well as
other members of Mac-Gray and Intirion management, had two meetings in April
1997. The parties signed a confidentiality agreement and Intirion provided
financial information to Mac-Gray. In May 1997, Mac-Gray and Intirion each
proposed valuations of Intirion which were substantially apart. As a result,
all discussions were terminated in May 1997.
 
  In August 1997, Mac-Gray again approached Intirion with respect to a
possible merger transaction and the parties met to discuss Intirion's fiscal
1997 results. In late August and early September 1997, Mac-Gray and Intirion
conducted preliminary due diligence investigations of each other and discussed
valuations of Intirion. Mac-Gray made an offer to Intirion by a term sheet
dated September 10, 1997 proposing an acquisition of Intirion for a fixed
number of 2.3 million shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock. The Mac-Gray offer was
contingent on, among other things, satisfactory completion of Mac-Gray's due
diligence.
 
  Though negotiations regarding pricing terms were not final, a draft merger
agreement was distributed to all parties in mid-September 1997. For several
days the parties discussed pricing and other economic terms of the
 
                                      23
<PAGE>
 
proposed merger, but did not commence negotiation of the draft merger
agreement. The parties then met to discuss Intirion's projected results for
fiscal year 1998. Because Mac-Gray was not satisfied with the projected
results, on September 22, 1997 all discussions between the parties were
terminated.
 
  During the period of August through October 1997, Intirion considered a
possible intial public offering of its equity securities and engaged in
discussions with several investment banking firms.
 
  In November 1997, Mac-Gray contacted Intirion to inquire whether Intirion
might still be interested in pursuing discussions with respect to a merger. On
November 11, 1997, members of Mac-Gray and Intirion management met to discuss
Intirion's recent financial results and pricing. During that meeting, Mac-Gray
made an offer, subject to due diligence, for a fixed number of approximately
1.9 million shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock. On November 19, 1997, Mac-Gray
formalized the offer in a term sheet to Intirion.
 
  A draft of the Merger Agreement was distributed to the parties in late
November. In early December, members of Mac-Gray management met with Intirion
executives to discuss financial diligence matters and, a few days after such
meeting, Mac-Gray proposed a reduced offer for Intirion consisting of a fixed
number of approximately 1.7 million shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock. The
parties continued negotiations of the Merger Agreement through December.
During this period, Mac-Gray also proposed the Voting Agreements pursuant to
which the Intirion Principal Stockholders would contractually agree, among
other things, to vote in favor of the Merger Agreement. On December 12, 1997,
via a conference call with five of the six directors participating, the Mac-
Gray Board had its first formal discussion of the Intirion transaction. On
December 16, 1997, via a conference call with all of the directors
participating, the Mac-Gray Board considered and voted on the Intirion
transaction, unanimously approving the transaction.
 
  A special meeting of the Intirion Board was convened on December 16, 1997,
via a conference call and with all the directors participating, to consider
the proposed transaction. After considerable deliberation regarding the merger
proposal, including consideration of its nominal value, likelihood of closing,
certainty that the indicated nominal value would be the actual value received
by Intirion stockholders, the long-term prospects of Mac-Gray and the relative
marketability of Mac-Gray Common Stock, the Intirion Board (i) determined that
the terms of the Merger Agreement are fair to, and in the best interests of,
Intirion and its stockholders, (ii) unanimously approved the Merger Agreement,
and (iii) resolved to recommend that the Intirion stockholders vote for
approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement.
 
  Accordingly, on December 22, 1997, officers of Intirion, Mac-Gray and Sub
and Bennett executed the Merger Agreement, and Mac-Gray, Gelco Corporation,
Eastech II Limited Partnership, Eastech III Limited Partnership and Bennett
executed the Voting Agreements. The parties issued a press release on December
23, 1997 announcing the execution of the Merger Agreement.
 
RECOMMENDATION OF THE INTIRION BOARD; INTIRION'S REASONS FOR THE MERGER
 
  The Intirion Board believes that the Merger Agreement and the transactions
contemplated thereby are fair to, and in the best interests of, Intirion's
stockholders. The Intirion Board recommends that the holders of Intirion
Voting Stock vote FOR the approval of the Merger Agreement and the
transactions contemplated thereby. The Intirion Board, in reaching its
determinations, considered the factors described below, which represent all
material factors considered and all of which were considered as a whole and
not separately.
 
  The Purchase Price Offered for Intirion. An integral part of the
determination by the Intirion Board that the Merger was in the best interests
of, and fair to, the Intirion stockholders was a determination that the price
that Mac-Gray was willing to pay for Intirion was fair. Management felt, and
presented to the Intirion Board its view, that the aggregate purchase price of
approximately $25 million that Mac-Gray offered for Intirion compared
favorably to the valuation estimates that were presented to the Intirion Board
by investment bankers when the Intirion Board and management were considering
an initial public offering of equity. The Intirion Board concluded that it was
unlikely that another buyer would offer Intirion stockholders a more favorable
combination of price, certainty of closing, liquidity, tax deferral, and long
term-investment prospects than what Mac-Gray had offered. Based on the
foregoing, the Intirion Board concluded that the Merger was fair, from a
financial point of view, to the stockholders of Intirion.
 
                                      24
<PAGE>
 
  Choice of Liquidity or Continued Investment for Intirion Stockholders. The
Intirion Board viewed as favorable the structure of the Merger that affords
Intirion stockholders a choice of whether to seek complete or increased
liquidity after the Merger through a sale of Mac-Gray Common Stock on the open
market or to continue their investment in Intirion, through Mac-Gray, a
larger, better-capitalized, well-situated company.
 
  The Strategic Aspects of the Merger. By receiving Mac-Gray Common Stock, the
Intirion stockholders will have an investment in a larger company, which the
Intirion Board believes offers greater financial resources and flexibility,
competitive strength and business opportunities than would be possible for
Intirion alone. Thus, the Intirion Board has concluded that the Merger
provides Intirion stockholders with better long-term prospects and liquidity
than if they continued to hold their Intirion Exchangeable Securities.
 
  The Intirion Board's Review of the Business and Prospects of Mac-Gray. In
choosing Mac-Gray as its merger partner, the Intirion Board considered and
viewed favorably the high quality and reputation of Mac-Gray's management, the
leadership that Mac-Gray has achieved in the highly fragmented laundry
services industry, its commitment to and evidence of sustained and accelerated
growth, both through acquisitions and internally, and its plans for financing
such growth.
 
  Other Possible Transactions Available to Intirion. During the period of
August through October 1997, the Intirion Board considered an initial public
offering of equity securities of Intirion. Considering the various factors
necessary to complete a successful initial public offering, the Intirion Board
concluded that Intirion could not reasonably anticipate completing such a
transaction for at least six months. Furthermore, there could be no assurances
that the market would be amenable to a public offering by Intirion at that
time or that a favorable price could be achieved.
 
  The Tax Aspects of the Merger Agreement. The Intirion Board reviewed with
its counsel and with management the provisions of the Merger Agreement and
determined that its terms permitted Intirion to achieve the tax-free
disposition of its business for marketable securities in a manner that is fair
to the Intirion stockholders.
 
  Based upon the foregoing, the Intirion Board concluded at its December 16,
1997 meeting that the Merger represents the best strategic alternative
currently available to maximize the return to Intirion stockholders. In view
of the wide variety of factors considered in connection with the evaluation of
the Merger, the Intirion Board did not find it practicable to, nor did it
attempt to, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific
factors it considered in reaching its determination.
 
  THE INTIRION BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT HOLDERS OF INTIRION VOTING
STOCK VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL TO APPROVE AND ADOPT THE MERGER AGREEMENT.
 
MAC-GRAY'S REASONS FOR THE MERGER
 
  The Mac-Gray Board believes that the consummation of the Merger will
constitute an important step in the implementation of one of Mac-Gray's
strategies of broadening the services offered to its existing customers and
further penetrating its markets. Intirion is an attractive merger partner to
Mac-Gray because it is a superior provider that shares Mac-Gray's commitment
to customer service. As a result of the Merger, Mac-Gray will benefit from
Intirion's strong staff and customer base. In addition, the Merger will
significantly enhance Mac-Gray's competitive position by providing Mac-Gray
with a broader product offering.

GENERAL
 
  The Merger Agreement provides that the Merger will be consummated if the
approval of the holders of Intirion Voting Stock required therefor is obtained
and all other conditions to the Merger are satisfied or waived. Upon

closing of the Merger. The Merger Agreement may be terminated by either party
if the Merger shall not have been consummated on or before April 30, 1998
(provided that such right to terminate the Merger Agreement shall not be

  HOLDERS OF INTIRION EXCHANGEABLE SECURITIES SHOULD BE AWARE THAT, ON THE
CLOSING DATE, TEN PERCENT (10%) OF THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF MAC-GRAY COMMON
STOCK TO WHICH EACH HOLDER OF INTIRION EXCHANGEABLE SECURITIES IS ENTITLED
SHALL BE PLACED IN ESCROW FOR THE PURPOSE OF SATISFYING CERTAIN CLAIMS FOR
WHICH MAC-GRAY IS INDEMNIFIED UNDER THE MERGER AGREEMENT. SEE "--
INDEMNIFICATION" AND "ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS--ESCROW AGREEMENT."
 
CONVERSION OF INTIRION EXCHANGEABLE SECURITIES; EXCHANGE PROCEDURES
 
  The conversion of Intirion Exchangeable Securities into the right to receive
the Merger Consideration will occur automatically at the Effective Time.
 
  As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, a transmittal
letter and instructions will be mailed by the Exchange Agent to each holder of
Intirion Exchangeable Securities informing such holder of the procedures to
follow in forwarding certificates representing Intirion Exchangeable
Securities to the Exchange Agent. Upon receipt of such certificates together
with such transmittal letter, duly executed, and such other customary
documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the Exchange Agent
will deliver to such holder of Intirion Exchangeable Securities full shares of
Mac-Gray Common Stock, cash in lieu of fractional shares and, in the case of
Intirion Senior Preferred Stock, cash, pursuant to the terms of the Merger
Agreement and in accordance with the transmittal letter.
 
  If any issuance of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock in exchange for Intirion
Exchangeable Securities is to be made to a person other than the holder of
Intirion Exchangeable Securities in whose name the certificate is registered
at the Effective Time, it will be a condition of such exchange that the
certificate so surrendered be properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form
for transfer and that the holder of Intirion Exchangeable Securities
requesting such issuance either pay any transfer or other tax required or
establish to the satisfaction of Mac-Gray that such tax has been paid or is
not payable.
 
  After the Effective Time, there will be no further transfers of Intirion
Exchangeable Securities on the stock transfer books of Intirion. If a
certificate representing Intirion Exchangeable Securities is presented for
transfer, it will be canceled and a certificate representing the appropriate
number of full shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock, cash in lieu of fractional
shares and, in the case of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock, cash will be
issued in exchange therefor.
 
  At any time following nine months after the Effective Time, Mac-Gray shall
be entitled to require the Exchange Agent to deliver to Mac-Gray any Merger
Consideration which has been made available to the Exchange Agent by or on
behalf of Mac-Gray and which has not been disbursed to holders of certificates
representing Intirion Exchangeable Securities, and thereafter such holders
shall be entitled to look to Mac-Gray only as a general creditor thereof with
respect to the Merger Consideration payable upon due surrender of such
certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Mac-Gray, Sub and
Intirion will be liable to any holder of Intirion Exchangeable Securities for
any Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any
applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.
 
  In the event any certificates representing Intirion Exchangeable Securities
have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent will issue shares of
Mac-Gray Common Stock and, if applicable, cash in exchange for such lost,
stolen or destroyed certificates upon the making of an affidavit of that fact
by the owner of such certificates and delivery of a bond in a reasonable sum
as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Mac-Gray or the
Exchange Agent with respect to the certificates alleged to have been lost,
stolen or destroyed.

Expiration Date a specific state of facts shall have become known which may,
in the good faith judgment of Mac-Gray, give rise to a claim for
indemnification under clause (a) or (b) above and Mac-Gray shall have given
written notice to the Escrow Agent of such facts known by Mac-Gray at such
time, then the right to indemnification with respect to such claim shall
remain in effect without regard to when such matter shall be finally
determined and disposed of. All indemnification claims asserted under clause
(a) or (b) above shall be satisfied solely from the Escrowed Shares, provided
that claims asserted under clause (a) above that involve a fraudulent or
intentional misrepresentation made by Intirion to Mac-Gray or an intentional
breach of the Merger Agreement by Intirion or Bennett may also be satisfied
from Bennett, and provided further that the Threshold and the Expiration Date
shall not apply in the case of a fraudulent or intentional misrepresentation
made by Intirion to Mac-Gray or an intentional breach of the Merger Agreement
by Intirion or Bennett, and the Threshold shall not apply in the case of
claims asserted under clause (b) above. See "Ancillary Agreements--Escrow
Agreement."
 
  See "Summary of Prospectus/Proxy Statement--Terms of the Merger--
Indemnification" for definitions of certain capitalized terms used in this
section.
 
FEES AND EXPENSES
 
  Whether or not the Merger is consummated, each party to the Merger Agreement
will pay its own fees, expenses and disbursements and those of its agents,
representatives, accountants and counsel incurred in connection with the
Merger, including all costs and expenses incurred in the performance and
compliance with all conditions to be performed pursuant to the Merger
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Merger is consummated, the
holders of Intirion Exchangeable Securities shall pay all of such fees and
expenses incurred by them and all of such fees and expenses incurred by
Intirion and no such fees or expenses shall be paid for or reflected in any
account of Intirion; provided that Intirion will pay the reasonable fees and
expenses of White & McDermott, P.C. up to $125,000.
 
AMENDMENT; WAIVER
 
  The Merger Agreement may not be amended or modified, nor may compliance with
any condition or covenant set forth therein be waived, except by a writing
duly and validly executed by each party to the Merger Agreement, or in the
case of a waiver, the party waiving compliance.
 
ACCOUNTING TREATMENT
 
  The Merger is intended to qualify as a pooling of interests for accounting
and financial reporting purposes. Mac-Gray has received a letter from Price
Waterhouse LLP dated as of the date of the Merger Agreement to the effect that
the Merger is expected to qualify for pooling of interests accounting
treatment. Under the pooling of interests method of accounting, the historical
recorded assets and liabilities of Mac-Gray and Intirion will be carried
forward to the combined company at their recorded amounts, the operating
results of the combined company will include the operating results of Mac-Gray
and Intirion for the entire fiscal year in which the combination occurs and
the historical reported operating results of the separate companies for prior
periods will be combined and restated as the operating results of the combined
company.
 
CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
 
  The Merger is intended to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of
Section 368(a) of the Code. Assuming the Merger is so treated, for federal
income tax purposes, the Merger will not result in the recognition
 
                                      38
<PAGE>
 
of gain or loss to Mac-Gray, Intirion, Sub or the holders of Intirion Voting
Stock, except with respect to cash received in the Merger (including in lieu
of fractional shares) or pursuant to the exercise of appraisal rights. The tax
basis of Mac-Gray Common Stock received will generally be the same as the tax
basis of the Intirion Voting Stock surrendered in the Merger, and the holding
period of the Mac-Gray Common Stock received will include the holding period
of the Intirion Voting Stock surrendered if the Intirion Voting Stock was held
as a capital asset. Similar treatment should apply to holders of the $12.50
Warrants, the $5.00 Warrants and any Miscellaneous Warrant or Intirion Option
that is not a compensatory stock option subject to special tax rules. See
"Certain Federal Income Tax Considerations."
 
RESALE OF MAC-GRAY COMMON STOCK
 
  All shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock issued in connection with the Merger
will be freely transferable, except that any shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
received by persons who, at the time of the Intirion Special Meeting are
deemed to be "affiliates" of Intirion for purposes of Rule 145 under the
Securities Act, may be sold by them only in transactions permitted by the
resale provisions of Rule 145 under the Securities Act (with respect to
affiliates of Intirion) or Rule 144 under the Securities Act (with respect to
persons who are or become affiliates of Mac-Gray) or as otherwise permitted
under the Securities Act. Persons who may be deemed to be affiliates of
Intirion generally include individuals or entities that control, are
controlled by, or are under common control with, Intirion and may include
certain officers and directors of Intirion as well as principal stockholders
of Intirion.
 
  Affiliates of Intirion may not sell their shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
acquired in connection with the Merger, except pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act covering such shares or in
compliance with Rule 145 (or Rule 144 under the Securities Act in the case of
persons who are or become affiliates of Mac-Gray) or another applicable
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. In
general, under Rule 145, for one year following the Effective Time an
affiliate (together with certain related persons) would be entitled to sell
shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock acquired in connection with the Merger only
through unsolicited "brokers' transactions" or in transactions directly with a
"market maker," as such terms are defined in Rule 144. Additionally, the
number of shares to be sold by an affiliate (together with certain related
persons) within any three-month period for purposes of Rule 145 may not exceed
the greater of 1% of the outstanding shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock or the
average weekly trading volume of such stock during the four calendar weeks
preceding such sale. Rule 145 would, however, only remain available to
affiliates if Mac-Gray remained current with its informational filings with
the Commission under the Exchange Act. One year after the Effective Time, a
person who was an affiliate of Intirion at the time of the Intirion Special
Meeting would be able to sell shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock acquired in the
Merger without such manner of sale or volume limitations provided that Mac-
Gray was current with its Exchange Act informational filings and such person
was not then an affiliate of Mac-Gray. Two years after the Effective Time, a
person who was an affiliate of Intirion at the time of the Intirion Special
Meeting would be able to sell such shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock acquired in
the Merger without any restrictions so long as such person had not been an
affiliate of Mac-Gray for at least three months prior thereto.
 
  In order to help assure compliance with Rule 145 under the Securities Act
and treatment of the Merger as a pooling of interests, Intirion has agreed to
deliver the Affiliate Letters. See "The Merger--Certain Covenants and
Agreements--Other Agreements--Affiliate Letters."
 
  Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Intirion Principal
Stockholders have certain registration rights that obligate Mac-Gray to
register the shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock received by the Intirion
Principal Stockholders in connection with the Merger. Such shares are being
registered pursuant to the Registration Statement of which this
Prospectus/Proxy Statement forms a part. See "Ancillary Agreements--
Registration Rights Agreement."

                             ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS
 
  The descriptions of the Voting Agreements, the Escrow Agreement, the
Registration Rights Agreement and the Bennett Non-Competition Agreement
contained in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement do not purport to be complete and
are qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreements, which are
attached as Exhibits E-1, E-2, B and D, respectively, to Appendix A.
 
VOTING AGREEMENTS
 
  Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Mac-Gray and each
of the Intirion Principal Stockholders entered into the Voting Agreements
pursuant to which each Intirion Principal Stockholder has agreed to vote all
of the shares of Intirion Voting Stock controlled by it (the "Subject
Securities") in favor of the Merger and the approval of the terms of the
Merger Agreement and against other business combinations and actions which
could interfere with the Merger and has granted an irrevocable proxy to Sub,
certain officers of Sub and their successors and any other designee of Sub to
vote the Subject Securities in accordance with such agreement. As of the date
of this Prospectus/Proxy Statement, the Intirion Principal Stockholders
collectively own 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Intirion Senior
Preferred Stock, 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Intirion
Series A Preferred Stock and 317,568 shares of Intirion Common Stock (or
approximately 42% of the issued and outstanding shares of Intirion Common
Stock).
 
  Each Intirion Principal Stockholder has agreed that it will not, directly or
indirectly, solicit or respond to any inquiries or the making of any proposal
by any person or entity (other than Mac-Gray or any affiliate of Mac-Gray)
with respect to Intirion which constitutes or could reasonably be expected to
lead to an acquisition or purchase of all or (other than in the ordinary
course of business) a portion of the assets of, or any equity interest in,
Intirion, any merger or business combination with Intirion or any public or
private offering of interests in Intirion. Each Intirion Principal Stockholder
has also agreed that it will not, directly or indirectly, except pursuant to
the terms of the Merger Agreement, offer for sale, sell, or otherwise dispose
of or grant any proxies with respect to any or all of such Intirion Principal
Stockholder's Subject Securities.
 
  The Voting Agreements shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the
consummation of the Merger, (ii) the termination of the Merger Agreement
pursuant to its terms and (iii) in the case of the Voting Agreement by and
between Mac-Gray and Gelco Corporation, an amendment to the Merger Agreement
that (a) reduces the consideration to be paid to Gelco Corporation in
connection with the Merger or (b) otherwise materially adversely affects Gelco
Corporation.
 
ESCROW AGREEMENT
 
  As of the consummation of the Merger, Mac-Gray, Gelco Corporation, Michael
Shanahan, as agent (the "Agent") for the holders of Intirion Exchangeable
Securities other than Gelco Corporation, and the Escrow Agent (State Street
Bank) will enter into the Escrow Agreement, pursuant to which, upon
consummation of the Merger, Mac-Gray shall deliver ten percent (10%) of the
shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock comprising the Merger Consideration. The
Escrowed Shares will be deducted pro rata from the shares allocable to each
former holder of Intirion Exchangeable Securities. The purpose of the escrow
is to satisfy claims for indemnification made by Mac-Gray pursuant to the
Merger Agreement. See "The Merger-- Indemnification."
 
  The Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrowed Shares (i) upon joint written
notice and instruction from Mac-Gray, Gelco Corporation and the Agent that the
Escrowed Shares, or any portion thereof, should be disbursed or (ii) if at any
time, or from time to time, on or before the earlier of (a) the first (lst)
anniversary of the Closing Date and (b) the date of issuance of the first
audited financial statements of Mac-Gray for the fiscal year ended December
31, 1998 (such earlier date, the "Termination Date"), Mac-Gray delivers to the
Escrow Agent written notice asserting that (x) Mac-Gray is entitled to
indemnification under the Merger Agreement (an
 
                                      40
<PAGE>
 
"Indemnification Notice") or (y) prior to the Termination Date a specific
state of facts (which facts shall be described) has become known which may, in
Mac-Gray's good faith judgment, give rise to a claim for indemnification under
the Merger Agreement (a "Contingent Claim Notice"), which Indemnification
Notice or Contingent Claim Notice, as the case may be, shall state the basis
and amount of such indemnification claim, then the Escrow Agent shall disburse
to Mac-Gray, on the thirtieth (30th) day following receipt by the Escrow Agent
of the Indemnification Notice or the Contingent Claim Notice, as the case may
be, a number of the Escrowed Shares equal in value to the amount of such
claim; provided, however, that if the Escrow Agent receives written notice
from either the Agent or Gelco Corporation prior to such thirtieth (30th) day
that a dispute exists with respect to such indemnification claim (a "Dispute
Notice"), which Dispute Notice shall state the basis of such dispute and the
number of Escrowed Shares, if any, as to which no dispute exists, the Escrow
Agent shall continue to hold the Escrowed Shares that are in dispute (but
shall disburse to Mac-Gray the number of Escrowed Shares as to which no
dispute exists) until directed otherwise.
 
  If the Escrow Agent timely receives a Dispute Notice, the Escrow Agent shall
retain the Escrowed Shares in dispute until the first to occur of the
following: (i) receipt by the Escrow Agent of a joint written instruction from
Mac-Gray, Gelco Corporation and the Agent, in which case the Escrow Agent
shall disburse the Escrowed Shares (or applicable portions thereof) as set
forth in such joint written instructions or (ii) receipt by the Escrow Agent
of a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction (the "Indemnity Award")
resolving the dispute, in which case the Escrow Agent shall disburse the
Escrowed Shares (or applicable portions, thereof) as set forth in the
Indemnity Award.
 
  If, on the Termination Date, there are Escrowed Shares remaining undisbursed
and not subject to an Indemnification Notice or a Contingent Claim Notice
received by the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall disburse (upon receipt of
proper stock certificates from Mac-Gray's transfer agent) such Escrowed Shares
to the Intirion Stockholders in accordance with each Intirion Stockholder's
Proportionate Interest (as defined in the Escrow Agreement).
 
  Whenever the Escrow Agreement provides that the Escrow Agent may or shall
disburse Escrowed Shares to Mac-Gray, the Escrow Agent shall deliver to the
transfer agent for the Escrowed Shares the stock certificate representing such
Escrowed Shares and the transfer agent shall deliver to the Escrow Agent one
stock certificate representing the number of shares to be delivered to Mac-
Gray and another stock certificate representing the balance of Escrowed Shares
remaining. The Escrow Agent shall then deliver to Mac-Gray a stock certificate
representing the appropriate number of Escrowed Shares determined in
accordance with the next sentence. The number of Escrowed Shares disbursed to
satisfy an indemnification claim by Mac-Gray shall be equal to the number of
Escrowed Shares (rounded to the nearest whole share) determined as follows:
(i) the amount of losses with respect to which Mac-Gray is entitled to
indemnification under the Merger Agreement and as to which the Escrow Agent
has received an Indemnification Notice or a Contingent Claim Notice for which
a Dispute Notice is not timely delivered or, if so delivered, the dispute has
been resolved in accordance with the third paragraph of this section divided
by (ii) the per share closing price of Mac-Gray Common Stock on the NYSE on
the Closing Date as reported in The Wall Street Journal.
 
  The Escrow Agent will receive a fee for its services and will be held
harmless and be indemnified in connection with any and all third party claims,
losses, judgments or costs, regardless of their nature, arising out of or
because of the Escrow Agreement, except such as may arise because of the
Escrow Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
 
  The Escrow Agreement will terminate upon the final disbursement of the
Escrowed Shares by the Escrow Agent as provided in the Escrow Agreement.
 
REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
 
  As of the consummation of the Merger, Mac-Gray and the Intirion Principal
Stockholders will enter into the Registration Rights Agreement.
 
                                      41
<PAGE>
 
  Resale Registration. To facilitate the resale by the Intirion Principal
Stockholders of the shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock received by them in
connection with the Merger (the "Registrable Securities"), Mac-Gray has agreed
to use its best efforts to file and cause to become effective under the
Securities Act no later than the date which is thirty (30) days after the
Closing Date a resale registration statement (the "Resale Registration
Statement") covering all of the Registrable Securities. The Resale
Registration Statement is included in the Registration Statement of which this
Prospectus/Proxy Statement is a part. Once the Resale Registration Statement
is effective, Mac-Gray has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to
keep such Resale Registration Statement continuously effective for a period
ending with the earlier of (a) the sale of all Registrable Securities and (b)
12 months following the Closing Date.
 
  Piggyback Registration. If at any time or times prior to the second
anniversary of the Merger Mac-Gray shall determine to register under the
Securities Act any shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock (except in certain
specified situations), the Intirion Principal Stockholders have the right to
request the inclusion in such registration of some or all of the Registrable
Securities held by them. In the event of such request, Mac-Gray shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be
included in such registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar
securities of Mac-Gray or any other securityholder included therein and to
permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in
accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof.
 
  Certain Other Provisions. All expenses incident to Mac-Gray's performance of
its registration obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement,
including the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel reasonably
satisfactory to Mac-Gray retained in connection with each registration by the
Intirion Principal Stockholders of the Registrable Securities being
registered, will be paid by Mac-Gray. The Intirion Principal Stockholders will
be responsible for underwriting commissions or discounts or transfer taxes, if
any, attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities, any fees or expenses
of any counsel, accountants or other persons retained or employed by the
Intirion Principal Stockholders (other than the fees and expenses of one legal
counsel as provided above) or out-of-pocket expenses of the Intirion Principal
Stockholders and their agents, including, without limitation, any travel
costs.
 
  The Registration Rights Agreement contains customary indemnification
provisions whereby Mac-Gray is obligated to indemnify and hold harmless the
Intirion Principal Stockholders and certain related parties, and the Intirion
Principal Stockholders are obligated under certain circumstances to indemnify
and hold harmless Mac-Gray and certain related parties, in each case in
connection with liabilities relating to the registration of the Registrable
Securities.
 
NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT
 
  As of the consummation of the Merger, Mac-Gray and Bennett shall enter into
the Bennett Non-Competition Agreement, which provides that Bennett, so long as
he is employed by Mac-Gray and any time thereafter, shall keep secret and
shall not ever publish, divulge, furnish, impart or disclose any of the Trade
Secrets or Confidential Information (as such terms are defined in the Bennett
Non-Competition Agreement) to any person, firm or corporation other than Mac-
Gray or certain parties affiliated with Mac-Gray, or use any of the Trade
Secrets or Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, for his own
benefit or for the benefit of any person, firm or corporation other than Mac-
Gray and certain parties affiliated with Mac-Gray. The Bennett Non-Competition
Agreement also provides that Bennett shall not, for a period beginning on the
Closing Date and ending on the third anniversary of the date Bennett's
employment with Mac-Gray is terminated (the "Lapse Date"), without the express
prior written consent of Mac-Gray, directly or indirectly, anywhere in each
state of the United States in which Mac-Gray and its affiliates are,
collectively, as of the Closing Date or at any time prior to the Lapse Date,
conducting any business activities (a) engage in any activity in the principal
business of Mac-Gray and its affiliates as of the Closing Date, including,
without limitation, the business of (i) owning, selling, leasing, operating or
servicing card or coin-operated laundry machines and (ii) producing, selling,
leasing and servicing appliance products, including, without limitation,
refrigerators, freezers and microwave ovens, in the "in room" environments of
college and university residence halls, hotels and motels, government or
military
 
                                      42
<PAGE>
 
accommodations or the senior living market or (b) engage, participate or
invest in or assist (whether as owner, part-owner, shareholder, partner,
member, director, officer, trustee, employee, agent or consultant, or in any
other capacity) any business organization whose activities, products or
services are in the industry described in clause (i) above; provided, however,
that Bennett may make passive investments in a competitive enterprise, the
shares of which are publicly traded, if Bennett's aggregate investment in such
enterprise constitutes less than one percent (1%) of the equity ownership of
such enterprise.
 
                   CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
 
  The following discussion is a general summary of the material United States
federal income tax consequences of the Merger. This discussion is based upon
the Code, regulations proposed or promulgated thereunder, judicial precedent
relating thereto, and current rulings and administrative practice of the
Service in each case as in effect as of the date hereof, all of which are
subject to change at any time, possibly with retroactive effect. The summary
set forth below may not be applicable with respect to holders of Intirion
Exchangeable Securities who are subject to special tax treatment, such as non-
U.S. persons, life insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations and financial
institutions, and may not apply to a holder in light of his or her individual
circumstances.
 
  HOLDERS OF INTIRION EXCHANGEABLE SECURITIES SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX
ADVISORS AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE MERGER,
INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND
FOREIGN INCOME AND OTHER TAX LAWS.
 
  The Merger is intended to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a)
of the Code. The following discussion assumes that the Merger will be treated
as such a reorganization. However, Mac-Gray and Intirion will not be
requesting a ruling from the Service or receiving an opinion of counsel
regarding the federal income tax consequences of the Merger, and it is
possible that the Service will assert that the Merger should not be treated as
such a reorganization. If the Merger fails to so qualify, the tax treatment
applicable to shareholders would likely be materially different from that set
forth below.
 
  No gain or loss will be recognized for federal income tax purposes by Mac-
Gray, Intirion or Sub as a consequence of the Merger.
 
  A holder of Intirion Voting Stock who receives a combination of Mac-Gray
Common Stock and cash in exchange for Intirion Voting Stock pursuant to the
Merger will realize economic gain or loss equal to the difference between (i)
the sum of the cash and the fair market value of the Mac-Gray Common Stock
received and (ii) the aggregate tax basis in Intirion Voting Stock surrendered
therefor. However, any such gain will only be recognized to the extent of the
cash received. Such recognized gain will generally be treated as long-term
capital gain if (x) the Intirion Voting Stock surrendered in the Merger has
been held as a capital asset for more than one year at the Effective Time (and
may be eligible for the lowest capital gains rate if held for more than
eighteen months) and (y) the cash received does not have the effect of a
distribution of a dividend (which is taxable as ordinary income). Any such
loss will not be recognized.
 
  The tax basis of the Mac-Gray Common Stock received by a holder of Intirion
Voting Stock will be the same as the aggregate tax basis of the Intirion
Voting Stock surrendered therefor, decreased by the cash received (including
cash received in lieu of a fractional share) and increased by any gain
recognized (whether capital gain or dividend income). The holding period of
the Mac-Gray Common Stock will include the holding period of the Intirion
Voting Stock surrendered therefor, if the Intirion Voting Stock was held as a
capital asset.
 
  For purposes of determining whether the cash received has the effect of a
distribution of a dividend, a holder of Intirion Voting Stock should be
treated as if such holder first exchanged all of such holder's Intirion Voting
Stock solely for Mac-Gray Common Stock, and then Mac-Gray immediately redeemed
a portion of the Mac-Gray Common Stock in exchange for the cash the holder
actually received. Under this analysis, in general, if the
 
                                      43
<PAGE>
 
receipt of cash in this deemed redemption results in a "substantially
disproportionate" reduction in the holder's voting stock interest in Mac-Gray
or is "not essentially equivalent to a dividend," the receipt of the cash will
not have the effect of the distribution of a dividend. For purposes of this
determination, the holder's deemed voting interest in Mac-Gray before the
hypothetical redemption is compared to the holder's interest after the
redemption, taking into account in each case any Mac-Gray Common Stock
constructively owned by the holder under the applicable attribution rules of
the Code. Generally, if the holder's share of the voting power of Mac-Gray has
declined, as a result of the deemed redemption, by more than 20%, then the
receipt of cash will not be taxed as a dividend. If such interest in the
voting power of Mac-Gray has declined by 20% or less, then generally, in the
case of a minority shareholder who is not an officer or director of Mac-Gray
and who exercises no control over Mac-Gray's corporate affairs, the receipt of
cash likely would not be taxed as a dividend. Each holder of Intirion Voting
Stock should consult with such holder's own tax advisors as to whether the
receipt of cash has the effect of the distribution of a dividend, based on the
particular facts and circumstances, and if so, the consequences thereof.
 
  Cash received by a holder of Intirion Voting Stock in lieu of a fractional
share interest in Mac-Gray Common Stock will be treated as received in
exchange for such fractional share interest, and gain or loss will be
recognized for federal income tax purposes, measured by the difference between
the amount of cash received and the portion of the basis of the Intirion
Voting Stock allocable to such fractional share interest. Such gain or loss
would be capital gain or loss and will be long-term if such share of Intirion
Voting Stock had been held for more than one year at the Effective Time (and
may be eligible for the lowest capital gains rate if held for more than
eighteen months).
 
  Under the Code, a holder of Intirion Voting Stock may be subject, under
certain circumstances, to back-up withholding at a 31% rate with respect to
the amount of cash received pursuant to the Merger unless such holder provides
proof of an applicable exemption or a correct taxpayer identification number,
and otherwise complies with applicable requirements of the back-up withholding
rules. Amounts withheld under the back-up withholding rules are not an
additional tax and may be refunded or credited against the holder's federal
income tax liability, provided that the required information is furnished to
the Service. A holder of Intirion Voting Stock that does not provide his or
her correct taxpayer identification number may be subject to penalties imposed
by the Service.
 
  Under Treasury Regulations effective for exchanges occurring on or after
March 6, 1998, a holder of the $12.50 Warrants, the $5.00 Warrants or any
other non-compensatory Intirion Option or Miscellaneous Warrant should not
recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purpose as a result of the
receipt of Mac-Gray Common Stock in the Merger, except with respect to cash
received in lieu of fractional shares. The tax basis of the Mac-Gray Common
Stock received by such a holder will be the same as the aggregate tax basis of
the non-compensatory Intirion Option or Miscellaneous Warrant exchanged
therefor, and the holding period of the Mac-Gray Common Stock should include
the holding period of the non-compensatory Intirion Option or Miscellaneous
Warrant exchanged therefor, assuming such non-compensatory Intirion Option or
Miscellaneous Warrant was held as a capital asset. Nonrecognition of gain or
loss with respect to holders of the $12.50 Warrants, the $5.00 Warrants and
any other non-compensatory Intirion Option or Miscellaneous Warrant will
depend upon the treatment of such options or warrants as "rights to acquire
stock" within the meaning of the applicable Treasury Regulations. That term is
not fully defined in such Treasury Regulations, and the Service has not issued
any guidance on that issue. Although the $12.50 Warrants and the $5.00
Warrants should be treated as "rights to acquire stock" with respect to
Intirion, holders of such warrants should nevertheless consult their tax
advisors to confirm the application of the Treasury Regulations to such
warrants, particularly in light of any guidance that the Service may issue in
the future.
 
  Holders of Miscellaneous Warrants or Intirion Options that are compensatory
in nature are subject to special rules under the Code and generally will be
subject to federal income tax upon the receipt of Mac-Gray Common Stock
pursuant to the Merger. Such holders should consult their own tax advisors as
to the federal income tax consequences of the Merger in light of their
particular circumstances.

                            DESCRIPTION OF MAC-GRAY
 
INTRODUCTION
 
  Mac-Gray, founded in 1927, believes that it is among North America's largest
suppliers of card and coin-operated laundry services in multiple housing
facilities such as apartment buildings, colleges and universities and public
housing complexes, and, based upon Mac-Gray's survey of colleges and
universities, is North America's largest supplier of such services to the
college and university market. Mac-Gray owns and operates approximately
120,000 card and coin-operated washers and dryers in more than 17,000 multiple
housing laundry rooms located in 22 states in the Northeast, Midwest and
Southeast regions of the United States. In addition, Mac-Gray believes that it
is the largest operator of commercial laundry products manufactured by Maytag.
Mac-Gray's revenues, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization ("EBITDA") and pro forma net income for the twelve months ended
December 31, 1997, were approximately $81.4 million, $19.6 million and $4.7
million, respectively.
 
  Approximately 85% of Mac-Gray's revenue is derived from the operation of
washers and dryers in laundry rooms under long-term leases with property
owners. Under Mac-Gray's long-term leases, which have an average remaining
life of more than seven years, Mac-Gray typically receives the exclusive right
to operate laundry rooms within a multiple housing property in exchange for a
percentage of the revenue collected. Mac-Gray has been able to retain 99% of
its existing machine base, while also adding an average of 5.1% to its machine
base, during each of the past five years. Mac-Gray believes that its ability
to retain its existing machine base in the past, while growing its machine
base through acquisitions, is indicative of its service of, and attention to,
property owners and managers. The property owner or manager is usually
responsible for maintaining and cleaning the premises and for payment of the
utilities. Mac-Gray leases space within a property, in some instances improves
the leased space with new flooring, ceilings and other improvements, and then
installs and services the laundry equipment and collects the revenue. Mac-Gray
sets and adjusts the pricing for its machines based upon local market
conditions.
 
  Mac-Gray is also a significant distributor for several major equipment
manufacturers, including Maytag. As an equipment distributor, Mac-Gray sells
commercial laundry equipment to public laundromats, as well as to the real
estate industry. Mac-Gray is also certified by the manufacturers to service
the commercial laundry equipment that it sells. Mac-Gray also sells commercial
laundry equipment directly to institutional purchasers, including hospitals,
restaurants and hotels, for use in their own on-premise laundry facilities.
 
  Mac-Gray manages its laundry route business and its distribution and
servicing business from its corporate headquarters in Cambridge,
Massachusetts, where it has centralized its administrative, billing,
marketing, purchasing and refurbishing operations. Mac-Gray also operates
sales and/or service centers in Connecticut, Florida (three locations),
Georgia, Illinois, Maine, Missouri, New York (two locations), North Carolina
and Pennsylvania.
 
FINANCIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF MAC-GRAY'S BUSINESS
 
  Mac-Gray's business has the following financial and operational
characteristics:
 
    RECURRING REVENUE--Mac-Gray operates laundry equipment located in
  multiple housing facilities under long-term leases with property owners. In
  addition, Mac-Gray's efforts are designed to maintain customer
  relationships over the long-term, thus optimizing customer retention.
 
    HISTORICALLY NON-CYCLICAL BUSINESS--Mac-Gray has not experienced a
  reduction of its business as a result of past general economic downturns,
  including the recession that occurred in the early 1990s, although there
  can be no assurance that this would be the case in the future. Mac-Gray
  believes that many larger property owners and managers may be even more
  inclined to outsource non-core operations, such as laundry services, during
  economic downturns as they seek to control capital expenditures while
  maximizing resident retention through the availability of quality services
  and amenities.

    DIVERSIFIED AND STABLE CUSTOMER BASE--Mac-Gray provides laundry services
  to more than 17,000 laundry rooms located in 22 states in the Northeast,
  Midwest and Southeast regions of the United States. Currently, no lessor
  represents more than 1% of Mac-Gray's machine base. Mac-Gray serves
  customers in a number of markets including apartment buildings, colleges
  and universities and public housing complexes.
 
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
 
  The card and coin-operated laundry services industry serves multiple housing
markets such as apartment buildings, colleges and universities and public
housing complexes. Mac-Gray estimates, based upon its analysis of 1990 U.S.
Department of Census data on multi-family housing units and colleges and
universities, as well as its analysis of related U.S. Department of Census
research surveys conducted during 1996, that these markets contain more than
3.5 million machines nationally, generating more than $2.0 billion in annual
revenues, and approximately 1.7 million machines in Mac-Gray's current
geographic markets. Trends in the real estate market generally, and in the
multiple housing industry specifically, are having a significant impact on the
laundry services industry and have resulted in increasing consolidation.
 
  The consolidation taking place in the real estate ownership and management
industries, including consolidation caused by the growth of REITs and large
national property management companies, has begun to have an impact on the
multiple housing environment, most noticeably through ownership and operation
of apartment complexes by larger organizations and more geographically diverse
property managers. Many of these larger, more geographically diverse property
management and ownership entities are beginning to outsource on-premise
services to enable the property owner or manager to focus on their core
business. By outsourcing services, property owners and managers are able to
respond more quickly and efficiently to the residents' needs, thereby
increasing retention, the critical factor in these larger entities'
profitability. These same property owners and managers are also increasingly
looking for service providers that can service multiple locations with a
broader product mix.
 
  The laundry services industry has historically been serviced by small,
independent owner-operators. Many of these independent business owners
commenced operations during the 1940s and 1950s and are facing generational
transfer issues as they reach retirement age. While many of these
entrepreneurs enjoy excellent reputations, they are confronted with
significant capital expenditures necessary to upgrade existing equipment and
implement newly available payment technologies. Faced with these factors, many
are choosing to sell their businesses.
 
  Recent developments in cashless payment technology have also begun to change
the way in which the laundry services industry conducts business. Cashless
payment technology, the costs of which have historically outweighed the
benefits, has recently become more affordable which, Mac-Gray believes, will
lead to more cashless, card based laundry rooms. The benefits of cashless
payment technology include the potential for modest incremental price
increases, variable time pricing, reduced administrative burden, improved cash
controls and enhanced user convenience. Cashless payment technology will also
provide property owners with the ability to integrate laundry room services
with previously unrelated amenities, such as door and perimeter access,
photocopying, telephone, rent collection, vending machines and other ancillary
services.
 
  The card and coin-operated laundry service industry is also influenced by
societal trends in multi-family housing, whether it be in the retirement,
assisted-living or low income rental markets or in the development of larger
and more full-service apartment and condominium communities. As the retirement
age population grows, retirement and full-service assisted living facilities
are being increasingly utilized by those who desire a communal, secure living
arrangement with access to a full range of on-premise services. Mac-Gray
believes that the trend towards multi-family housing will lead to increased
demand for on-premise, modern laundry rooms as well as other amenities.
 
  Mac-Gray believes that the factors discussed above have created an
opportunity for those companies with strong financial and management resources
to grow their customer base and increase revenue and cash flow.

COMPANY STRATEGY
 
  Mac-Gray's strategic objectives are to (i) grow its revenue and customer
base and increase profitability and cash flow by refining and expanding its
present operations and (ii) capitalize on the consolidation opportunities that
exist in the highly fragmented laundry services industry. In order to achieve
these objectives, Mac-Gray intends to:
 
    EXPAND CUSTOMER BASE IN EXISTING MARKETS--Mac-Gray intends to use its
  sales and marketing resources, which have significantly increased during
  the past 20 months, to secure additional customers in its existing markets.
  Mac-Gray's sales force is organized to focus on specific markets including
  larger property owners, such as REITs and public housing authorities,
  geographically diversified property managers and colleges and universities.
  Mac-Gray relies substantially on referrals from existing customers and
  intends to continue its historic, proactive attention to customer service
  and satisfaction. This focus has resulted in a 99% machine retention rate
  over the past five years.
 
    IMPLEMENT NEWLY AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGY--Mac-Gray has installed smart card
  readers in more than 3,900 laundry machines since April 1, 1997 and intends
  to accelerate the use of cost-effective smart card based payment and access
  systems. Smart card based payment technology permits Mac-Gray to make
  modest, periodic price increases, as well as to establish variable time
  pricing, which will add incremental revenue. The installation of smart card
  readers has increased revenue at existing facilities and has also attracted
  additional customers as a result of Mac-Gray providing a broader product
  offering.
 
    Mac-Gray particularly believes that smart card based payment systems are
  making its laundry equipment more convenient by eliminating the need to
  gather coins to use the equipment. Mac-Gray has experienced increased usage
  in some of its laundry facilities following the recent installation of
  smart card readers. In addition, as card based technologies become more
  prevalent, their use may also permit Mac-Gray to offer other smart card
  based services to its customers, including door and perimeter access,
  photocopying, vending machines, telephones, rent collection and other
  ancillary services.
 
    PURSUE STRATEGIC ACQUISITION OPPORTUNITIES--Mac-Gray intends to continue
  to acquire and integrate businesses that both increase penetration in
  existing markets and also strategically expand Mac-Gray's geographic
  presence. Mac-Gray believes that in-market acquisitions will allow it to
  capitalize on operating efficiencies and increase market penetration. In
  addition, Mac-Gray intends to acquire laundry room operations in new
  markets in order to increase its geographic diversity and broaden its
  potential customer base. Mac-Gray will continue its disciplined approach to
  evaluating expansion opportunities, including an analysis of each
  acquisition candidate's projected cash flow as compared to Mac-Gray's
  desired internal rate of return.
 
    INCREASE LEADING POSITION IN COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY MARKET--Mac-Gray
  intends to strengthen its leading position in the college and university
  market and to use it as a foundation for growth in both existing and new
  geographic markets. Mac-Gray will continue to utilize a sales force which
  focuses exclusively on this specialized market, which is often the first to
  demand new products and services. In addition, Mac-Gray intends to broaden,
  through the acquisition of Intirion and potentially through other
  acquisitions, the services offered to its existing college and university
  customers, including ancillary services typically used by college students,
  such as off-site laundry and vended services, which may be outside Mac-
  Gray's current core business.
 
INTERNAL GROWTH
 
  Mac-Gray's internal growth strategy is based upon its philosophy that to
experience real, sustainable long-term growth it must retain and build upon
its existing customer base. Mac-Gray has significantly increased its sales and
marketing resources during the past 20 months in order to take advantage of
opportunities which have arisen as a result of the consolidation in the real
estate industry. Nearly all of Mac-Gray's employees are eligible for incentive
bonuses based upon the net growth of Mac-Gray's customer base. Mac-Gray's
efforts have helped it to retain 99% of its existing machine base, while also
adding an average of 5.1% to its machine base, during each of the past five
years. Mac-Gray's internal growth strategy, which is intended to expand Mac-
Gray's customer base and to grow revenue, focuses on three distinct efforts:
(i) use cashless payment technology to
 
                                      47
<PAGE>
 
generate increased incremental revenue, (ii) convert owner-operated laundry
rooms to Mac-Gray-operated laundry rooms and (iii) secure new locations that
were previously served by another independent operator.
 
    USE OF EMERGING PAYMENT TECHNOLOGY--Mac-Gray intends to use smart card
  based cashless payment systems to generate incremental revenue at existing
  locations. For example, Mac-Gray's smart card based payment systems,
  including those available through Mac-Gray's arrangements with
  Schlumberger, permit Mac-Gray or the property owner to implement modest
  periodic price increases and to use variable time pricing to increase Mac-
  Gray's revenue and to maximize machine usage. Prior to the availability of
  smart card based cashless payment systems, modest incremental price
  increases could not be implemented because of the use of twenty-five cent
  coins to operate the laundry machines and the risk of imposing larger price
  increases than a particular user-base would accept without experiencing a
  reduction in usage. Mac-Gray intends to accelerate its use of smart card
  based payment technology at existing locations by converting coin-operated
  equipment in response to customer demand. Mac-Gray further intends to
  continue to install smart card readers in machines at new locations as
  property owners and managers request this new technology in their efforts
  to retain tenants.
 
    CONVERT SELF-OWNERS--Mac-Gray actively markets to property owners and
  managers who own and operate on-premise laundry rooms. By outsourcing their
  laundry service operations to Mac-Gray, these Self-Owners can achieve
  economic benefits through decreased capital expenditures and increased cash
  flow. In addition, this outsourcing permits property owners and managers to
  focus on their core business with the knowledge that a quality service
  provider is delivering services that help to retain residents. Mac-Gray
  further believes that its reputation for integrity in collection, a local
  sales force and prompt, efficient service, provide Mac-Gray with a
  competitive advantage in successfully converting Self-Owners to Mac-Gray
  customers. For example, in December 1996, Mac-Gray acquired The Laundry
  Works, a division of Boston Financial Group, L.P. ("BFG"), a large property
  management company headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, which resulted
  in the conversion of more than 500 machines at 18 locations in seven states
  from self-owned and operated laundry rooms to Mac-Gray-operated laundry
  rooms. Mac-Gray believes that BFG will realize a reduction in capital and
  administrative expenditures related to self-ownership, which should
  increase BFG's cash flows.
 
    SECURE NEW LOCATIONS PREVIOUSLY SERVED BY COMPETITORS--Mac-Gray's sales
  and marketing efforts focus significantly on properties where leases with
  competitors are nearing expiration. Mac-Gray's marketing department
  maintains an extensive database of prospective customers, including
  competitors' customers, which includes detailed information that assists
  Mac-Gray in its efforts to secure new customers. Mac-Gray has also
  historically achieved significant growth in this area through referrals
  from existing customers.
 
STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS
 
  Mac-Gray intends to continue to take advantage of the opportunities created
by the changes in the card and coin-operated laundry services industry through
strategic acquisitions of local and regional laundry route businesses. Mac-
Gray has accelerated its acquisition efforts by adding to its senior
management team, increasing its sales and marketing departments and
substantially increasing the funds available under its Credit Facility. Mac-
Gray's recent efforts are intended to accelerate and build upon Mac-Gray's
successful acquisition record. Since May 1996, Mac-Gray has acquired nine
laundry route businesses, representing approximately 42,000 machines,
contributing to the growth in its machine base. The following table summarizes
the locations of Mac-Gray's acquisitions consummated since May 1996:
 
<TABLE>

<PAGE>
 
  The acquisitions include the Sun Services Acquisition, which added a
significant number of machines to Mac-Gray's existing machine base in Florida,
the state with the third largest multiple housing market in the country. Mac-
Gray believes that its access to capital and its proven ability to acquire and
integrate smaller independent laundry route operators with its operations
provides it with a competitive advantage when pursuing some of the numerous,
private, family-owned businesses that, in many cases, are experiencing
generational ownership changes. Many of these independent owner-operators have
decided to sell their businesses because they either have elected not to
expend the financial resources necessary, or lack access to the additional
capital necessary to upgrade existing equipment and to implement new
technology in order to compete with larger operators, such as Mac-Gray.
 
  Mac-Gray's acquisition strategy has historically included both in-market
acquisitions, which increase Mac-Gray's presence in its existing geographic
markets, as well as add-on acquisitions, which establish Mac-Gray in a
geographic market in which it does not have a significant presence. Mac-Gray's
acquisition efforts have historically focused on both small, local, as well as
regional, laundry route operators. Mac-Gray believes this focus on smaller to
mid-sized acquisitions has enabled it to experience significant, long-term
growth because it permits Mac-Gray to successfully integrate these acquired
businesses into existing operations without adversely affecting its overall
customer service.
 
    Local Laundry Route Operators. The purchase of small, local laundry route
  operators and the integration of their assets into Mac-Gray's operations
  results in a lower overall cost structure for the acquired business. Mac-
  Gray expects to continue to evaluate additional opportunities to acquire
  laundry route businesses from independent owner-operators to further
  increase operating leverage within its markets. In many regions, Mac-Gray
  may be able to acquire laundry routes contiguous with its existing areas of
  operation without incurring significant incremental administrative costs.
 
    Regional Laundry Route Operators. A regional laundry route acquisition is
  typically larger in size and provides Mac-Gray with the opportunity to
  improve its cash flow by significantly increasing total revenue, by
  eliminating duplicative corporate and administrative functions and by
  reducing capital expenditures through improved purchasing power. The
  acquisition of a regional laundry route also provides a geographic
  footprint from which Mac-Gray's sales staff can operate to increase market
  penetration.
 
  In order to offer its customers a comprehensive set of products and services
to meet their residents' increasing demands, Mac-Gray may also choose to
pursue acquisitions of businesses, such as Intirion, that can provide
additional services to Mac-Gray's customer base and target markets. Mac-Gray
believes that, although certain of these ancillary services, such as off-site
laundry and vended services, may be outside Mac-Gray's current core business,
certain operating characteristics, such as the similarity of sales
distribution networks, customer decision makers and payment and collection
procedures, may present Mac-Gray with attractive growth opportunities.
 
CARD AND COIN-OPERATED LAUNDRY ROUTE BUSINESS
 
  Mac-Gray currently owns and operates more than 120,000 machines in over
17,000 laundry rooms located in multiple housing facilities, with no lessor
representing more than 1% of Mac-Gray's total machine base. The principal
aspects of Mac-Gray's laundry route operations include sales and marketing,
facility leasing, service, collections and security and equipment
refurbishment.
 
  Sales and Marketing. Mac-Gray markets its products and services through a
sales and marketing staff of 46 people. Mac-Gray's sales staff is dispersed
geographically throughout Mac-Gray's principal markets in order to support
Mac-Gray's customer and prospective customer base. As discussed below, Mac-
Gray primarily focuses its sales efforts on two markets: real estate
(apartments and public housing complexes) and colleges and universities. Mac-
Gray's sales force is charged with two primary functions: maintaining existing
customer relationships and soliciting new relationships. Mac-Gray's marketing
staff is located at its corporate headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Mac-Gray has added 20 sales and marketing personnel during the past 20 months.
 
    Real Estate. Mac-Gray's regional real estate sales team works with multi-
  housing accounts, such as apartments and public housing complexes, and is
  focused on the needs of existing customers, as well as the
 
                                      49
<PAGE>
 
  needs of potential customers. Each sales team relies heavily on referrals
  from existing accounts, as well as the internal expansion of existing
  accounts.
 
    In response to the consolidation of the multi-housing industry by the
  largest REITs and property management companies, Mac-Gray has assigned
  primary responsibility for the geographically dispersed property owners and
  managers to one of its senior sales managers. This position is focused
  principally on developing relationships at the executive level with many
  national REITs and property management companies.
 
    Colleges and Universities. Mac-Gray's college and university sales team
  is focused on enhancing relationships with existing accounts, as well as
  soliciting additional colleges and universities. The sales team relies
  heavily on national and regional trade show participation in order to reach
  the various decision makers of existing accounts and new prospects. Mac-
  Gray believes that having a sales team focused solely on the college and
  university market has helped it to achieve its status as North America's
  largest supplier of card and coin-operated laundry services to the college
  and university market.
 
  Facility Leasing. Mac-Gray typically sets up a complete laundry room
facility in the leased space, including washers, dryers and debit or smart
card readers, tables for organizing and folding laundry and seating areas. In
addition, Mac-Gray will frequently refurbish the premises by painting the room
and/or installing ventilation, lighting, plumbing and drainage. These
improvements are designed to create a laundry room which is clean and
convenient, thus encouraging maximum usage of the equipment by the residents
of the property. Mac-Gray generally enters into long-term leases with property
owners which provide, in most cases, for sharing of machine revenue on a
percentage basis. Under the terms of a standard long-term lease, Mac-Gray
leases a room or dedicated area within a multi-housing facility from the
property owner, public housing agency or college or university. Mac-Gray's
installed machine base is diversified across the various types of properties
that it serves as follows:
 
<TABLE>
     <S>                                                                     <C>
     Apartments, condominiums and co-operatives............................. 68%
     Colleges, universities and schools..................................... 24%
     Public housing.........................................................  4%
     Other..................................................................  4%
</TABLE>
 
  Based upon Mac-Gray's survey of colleges and universities, Mac-Gray is the
largest operator of card and coin-operated laundry rooms in the North American
college and university market with a customer base consisting of approximately
330 of the more than 1,600 public and private residential institutions. Mac-
Gray's strategy has been to pursue additional college and university accounts
both through acquisitions and through entering into new geographic markets.
 
  Approximately 85% of Mac-Gray's revenue is derived from the operations of
washers and dryers in laundry rooms pursuant to long-term leases with property
owners. The leases, which have an average remaining life of over seven years
and provide Mac-Gray with the exclusive right to operate the laundry room on
the premises, typically require Mac-Gray to pay a percentage of the revenue
collected to the lessor as a commission (or rent) and, in some cases, require
advance rental payments. The property owner or manager is usually responsible
for maintaining and cleaning the premises and for payment of the utilities.
Because of Mac-Gray's significant initial capital investment, Mac-Gray's
leases may only be terminated by the customer prior to their stated expiration
date for non-performance by Mac-Gray. Mac-Gray is unaware of any laundry room
lease that has ever been terminated by a customer due to non-performance by
Mac-Gray.
 
  Service. Mac-Gray delivers, installs, services and collects revenue from the
laundry equipment used in Mac-Gray-operated laundry rooms. Mac-Gray's
maintenance program is intended to limit unnecessary capital expenditures and
extend the useful life of Mac-Gray's laundry equipment, thus realizing optimal
lifetime revenue per machine. Mac-Gray utilizes a three facet program, coupled
with a restoration and redeployment program, to ensure that down time for its
equipment is kept to a minimum, thus maximizing average revenue per machine.
 
                                      50
<PAGE>
 
    Install High Quality Equipment. Mac-Gray primarily installs equipment
  manufactured by Maytag. Mac-Gray believes that the installation of high
  quality equipment at the outset, coupled with a proper maintenance program,
  results in equipment that operates more efficiently, is used more often and
  maximizes revenue per machine. Mac-Gray believes that its role as a
  significant purchaser and user, as well as distributor, of Maytag equipment
  affords it a competitive advantage both in terms of pricing and in terms of
  its staff of highly qualified service technicians. Mac-Gray also purchases
  equipment from other leading manufacturers, including Whirlpool Corporation
  ("Whirlpool") and General Electric Company, and believes that such
  manufacturers are willing to increase their sales to Mac-Gray. See "Risk
  Factors-- Dependence Upon Certain Suppliers."
 
    Periodic Preventive Maintenance. Mac-Gray performs scheduled, periodic,
  preventive maintenance on Mac-Gray's equipment at its various leased
  laundry rooms.
 
    On-Call Service. Mac-Gray employs approximately 91 service technicians to
  both maintain and repair its equipment. These service technicians have an
  average of over seven years experience repairing and maintaining laundry
  equipment. Mac-Gray's Director of Service Training is responsible for
  evaluating and training the service force. Mac-Gray is the only Maytag
  distributor to have ever won the prestigious Maytag Red Carpet Service
  Award twice, both times within the past ten years.
 
  Collections and Security. Revenues from Mac-Gray's laundry rooms are
collected on a periodic basis (typically one to three times per month) based
upon the historical use at each property. The collection routes are altered
frequently and Mac-Gray utilizes a computerized coin counting system and
various preventive and internal control measures, including armored car
services, to reduce the risks associated with its business.
 
  Equipment Refurbishment. Mac-Gray refurbishes some of its laundry equipment
at its Cambridge, Massachusetts headquarters. The refurbishment process
involves removing some machines from active service and restoring or replacing
some of the machine parts. The refurbished machines result in cost savings
which, when coupled with the installation of high quality machines and a
proper maintenance and service program, can result in reduced capital
expenditures and increased profitability for the property owner. Refurbished
machines are either used in locations where the lessor has requested them or
to replace older laundry equipment.
 
TECHNOLOGY
 
  Mac-Gray maintains a significant information technology system to facilitate
its lease monitoring, commission paying and product purchasing activities.
Mac-Gray has recently implemented and/or expanded its use of technologies that
Mac-Gray believes will broaden its existing product and service offerings,
enhance its customer service, improve its financial and operational monitoring
of its lease locations, and facilitate its analysis of the operations of
potential acquisition candidates.
 
  Cashless Transactions. Mac-Gray operates both smart card and debit card
based payment systems. Since 1991, Mac-Gray has installed more than 15,000
debit card operated laundry machines in response to customer demand in the
college and university market. The installation of these debit card based
machines often provided Mac-Gray with access to colleges and universities that
demanded card based payment systems as part of their procurement process.
 
  Mac-Gray has installed smart card readers in more than 3,900 laundry
machines since April 1, 1997 and intends to accelerate the use of cost-
effective smart card based payment and access systems. Smart cards are the
same size as credit or debit cards, but contain a small microprocessor chip
which is capable of computational operations, as well as storing data and
value for use in cashless transactions. The stored value feature of smart
cards is used with Mac-Gray's laundry equipment to provide laundry users the
convenience and security of cashless transactions. Mac-Gray, which has
experienced increased usage at existing facilities which have been equipped
with smart card readers, believes that these smart card based payment
technologies may also be used
 
                                      51
<PAGE>
 
to increase revenue by facilitating modest price increases and the
implementation of variable time pricing while also enhancing the ability to
expand its existing services and product offerings. The additional benefits
associated with smart card based transactions include reduced administrative
burdens and expenditures, reduced vandalism, improved security and more
efficient revenue collections. Mac-Gray believes that the availability of
these technologies will also increase laundry room usage and decrease the
property owner's risk of loss of resident business to off-premises operators
which, Mac-Gray believes, will further enhance the attractiveness of smart
card based payment systems to property owners and managers.
 
    Newly Available Technology. The introduction of a new, single unit smart
  card reader for use with laundry equipment has made it cost-effective and
  operationally feasible to convert existing coin-operated machines and to
  install new smart card operated machines. Prior to the availability of this
  technology, each piece of laundry equipment had to be hard-wired to an on-
  line processing system in order to function as a cashless unit. The newly
  available single unit smart card reader makes conversions and new
  installations more cost-effective.
 
    On April 1, 1997, Mac-Gray commenced a roll-out of smart card based
  payment systems. Mac-Gray has equipped more than 3,900 laundry machines
  with smart card readers since the commencement of this roll-out. Mac-Gray
  is also installing smart card operated machines at many of its new customer
  accounts. Mac-Gray believes that its seven year experience with cashless
  payment systems provides it with a competitive advantage as it further
  pursues the roll-out of card-operated laundry equipment.
 
    Pricing Flexibility. By equipping its machines with cashless payment
  technology, Mac-Gray believes that it can go beyond providing a safer
  environment and more efficient laundry facility. The use of smart card
  technology will enable Mac-Gray to make modest incremental price
  adjustments over time rather than in twenty-five cent increments. Mac-Gray
  believes that such modest price increases will lead to more revenue per
  machine without reducing the usage of its machines significantly. In
  addition, cashless technology will enable Mac-Gray to establish variable
  time pricing schedules. For instance, the machines may be programmed to
  have one set of prices during peak hours, one set during normal hours, and
  another set of prices during "off" hours of operation to encourage maximum
  usage, which Mac-Gray believes will lead to increased incremental revenue.
 
  Information Services. Mac-Gray is employing an integrated approach to the
underlying technology required to support its sales and administrative
functions. Mac-Gray provides its sales personnel with laptop computers for use
in communicating with Mac-Gray, accessing Company pricing and related
information and preparing customer presentations and analyses. Mac-Gray also
operates a data warehousing software system to assist Mac-Gray in its
operational and financial data management. For example, the data warehousing
software system aids Mac-Gray's senior management in analyzing geographic and
product line trends, as well as individual property and regional performance.
Mac-Gray can also use this data warehousing system to seamlessly import
operational information of a laundry service provider that Mac-Gray may be
interested in acquiring.
 
  Machine Technology. In January 1997, Maytag introduced new laundry machine
models which can only be activated by using a smart card. These new machines,
which are comparably priced to existing equipment, along with Mac-Gray's
access to the newly developed smart card readers, will permit Mac-Gray to more
economically install smart card based equipment.
 
  Additionally, in March 1997, Maytag introduced its new high-efficiency
Maytag Neptune(TM) line of laundry products. Mac-Gray believes that this new
line, which is more efficient in its use of water and utilities than existing
Maytag machines, will enhance customer relations.
 
COMPETITION
 
  The card and coin-operated laundry services industry is highly competitive,
capital intensive and requires reliable and prompt service. Mac-Gray believes
that customers consider different factors in selecting a laundry service
provider including customer service, reputation, commission rates (including
advance commissions) and
 
                                      52
<PAGE>
 
range of products and services. Mac-Gray believes that different types of
customers assign varied weight to each of these factors and that no one factor
materially influences a customer's selection of a laundry service provider.
Within any given geographic area, Mac-Gray may compete with local independent-
operators, regional operators and multi-regional operators. Although the
industry is highly fragmented, Mac-Gray and several other independent-
operators have chosen to grow by acquisitions, as well as through new machine
placement. Mac-Gray believes that it is the fourth largest card and coin-
operated laundry services provider in North America. Mac-Gray believes that
only Coinmach Laundry Corporation ("Coinmach"), Web Service Company, Inc.
("Web"), and Macke Laundry Services, L.P. ("Macke") maintain larger machine
bases than Mac-Gray, with only Coinmach and Web maintaining significantly
larger machine bases than Mac-Gray's machine base. In January 1998, Coinmach
announced the execution of a definitive agreement to acquire Macke.
 
LAUNDRY EQUIPMENT SALES, LEASING AND SERVICE
 
  Mac-Gray sells commercial laundry products to the retail coin laundromat
market and has been a Maytag distributor since 1927. Mac-Gray has, through
acquisitions of businesses and the cooperation of Maytag, grown its Maytag
distribution and service business to encompass Connecticut, Illinois, Maine,
Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York (except metropolitan New York City),
western Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Vermont and portions of
Arkansas, Indiana, Iowa, Mississippi and Missouri. Mac-Gray is currently the
sole distributor of Maytag commercial laundry equipment in each of its areas.
As a distributor, Mac-Gray sells laundry equipment to laundromat owners,
apartment and condominium owners and institutions such as hospitals,
restaurants and elder care facilities. Mac-Gray's retail coin laundromat sales
team is focused on selling replacement equipment to existing coin laundromat
owners, as well as soliciting new customers for its distribution business. The
sales efforts are supported by regional service training seminars held for the
benefit of existing and potential laundromat owners. Mac-Gray also sells
equipment manufactured by American Dryer Corporation ("American Dryer"), The
Dexter Company ("Dexter") and Whirlpool when such equipment better suits a
customer's needs. Mac-Gray believes that its role as a distributor, and not
just a buyer, of commercial laundry equipment provides it with a competitive
advantage in that it has access to numerous Self-Owners who may either choose
to buy equipment from Mac-Gray or choose to outsource this function by
becoming a lessor to Mac-Gray.
 
  Mac-Gray has also established a leasing program for commercial laundry
customers who choose neither to purchase equipment nor to become a laundry
route customer. This program involves the leasing of commercial laundry
equipment to customers who maintain their own coin-operated laundry rooms, as
well as to customers (such as hotels) who operate their own on-premise laundry
equipment. Although this operation currently provides a small amount of
revenue to Mac-Gray, Mac-Gray anticipates that this market presents Mac-Gray
with growth opportunities as additional Self-Owners see these services as a
way to free up available capital for other business needs.
 
  Mac-Gray also offers potential owner-operators of independent laundromats
complete design, construction, installation and set-up of turn-key
laundromats. Mac-Gray derives its revenue by selling the equipment to the
owner-operator and through ongoing service contracts with the owner-operator.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
  Mac-Gray has approximately 305 employees. None of Mac-Gray's employees is
covered by a collective bargaining agreement. Mac-Gray believes its relations
with its employees are good.
 
PROPERTIES
 
  Mac-Gray owns its 40,000 square foot corporate headquarters in Cambridge,
Massachusetts which houses Mac-Gray's administrative and central services,
including a 20,000 square foot warehouse for equipment and parts. Mac-Gray
also leases the following regional facilities, which are largely operated as
sales and service

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
  Mac-Gray is from time to time a party to litigation arising in the ordinary
course of business. There can be no assurance that Mac-Gray's insurance
coverage will be adequate to cover all liabilities resulting from such claims.
In the opinion of management, any liability that Mac-Gray might incur upon the
resolution of this litigation will not, in the aggregate, have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of Mac-
Gray.

              MAC-GRAY'S MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
  This Prospectus/Proxy Statement contains, in addition to historical
information, forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Mac-Gray's actual results could differ significantly from the results
discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or
contribute to such differences include those discussed in "Risk Factors" as
well as those discussed elsewhere in the Prospectus/Proxy Statement. The
historical financial information presented herein represents (i) consolidated
results of Mac-Gray, (ii) the combined results of Mac-Gray Co. and the Limited
Partnership and (iii) the combined results of Sun Services for the period
subsequent to the acquisition. The following discussion and analysis should be
read in conjunction with the combined financial statements and related notes
thereto presented elsewhere in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
 
OVERVIEW
 
  Mac-Gray derives its revenue principally through the operation and
maintenance of card and coin-operated laundry rooms in multiple housing
facilities, such as apartment buildings, colleges and universities and public
housing complexes. Mac-Gray operates its laundry rooms under long-term leases
with property owners, colleges and universities and governmental agencies. The
leases typically grant Mac-Gray the exclusive right to operate laundry rooms
on the lessor's premises for a fixed term, which is generally seven to ten
years, in exchange for a percentage of the revenue collected. Mac-Gray's
laundry route business consists of approximately 120,000 laundry machines,
operated in over 17,000 multiple housing laundry rooms located in 22 states in
the Northeast, Southeast and Midwest regions of the United States.
 
  Mac-Gray also derives revenue as a distributor and servicer of commercial
laundry equipment manufactured by Maytag. Mac-Gray has Maytag distributor
agreements for Connecticut, Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New
York (except metropolitan New York City), western Pennsylvania, Rhode Island,
South Carolina, Vermont and portions of Arkansas, Indiana, Iowa, Mississippi
and Missouri. Mac-Gray also sells or rents laundry equipment manufactured by
American Dryer, Dexter and Whirlpool to provide several alternatives in
machine type, cost and capacity. Additionally, Mac-Gray sells or rents laundry
equipment to restaurants, hotels, health clubs and similar institutional users
that operate their own on-premise laundry facilities.
 
PROPOSED MERGER
 
  On December 22, 1997, Mac-Gray entered into the Merger Agreement with
Intirion, pursuant to which the Intirion Exchangeable Securities are expected
to be exchanged for approximately 1.6 million shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
and approximately $1 million in cash. The Merger is expected to be accounted
for as a pooling of interests and is expected to close in early 1998.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
 Fiscal year ended December 31, 1997 compared to fiscal year ended December
31, 1996
 
  Revenue. Revenue increased by $16,943,000, or 26%, to $81,370,000 in 1997
from $64,427,000 in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to growth
in existing laundry route revenue, the Sun Services Acquisition and the impact
of a full year's operation of businesses acquired in 1996. Laundry route
revenue increased $12,826,000, due to the expansion of existing operations and
to an increase in the number of machines operated as a result of the nine
acquisitions of laundry route businesses subsequent to March 31, 1996. Sales
of equipment increased by $4,117,000, due to growth of revenue from existing
distributorships and the distributorships acquired during 1996 and 1997. Mac-
Gray believes that its increased focus on sales and marketing efforts since
mid-1996 has had a significant impact on the growth of revenue from existing
laundry routes and distributorships.
 
  Commissions. Commissions increased by $5,957,000, or 23%, to $31,717,000 in
1997 from $25,760,000 in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to an
increase in laundry route revenue, since commissions are generally paid based
upon a percentage of laundry route revenue.
 
 
                                      56
<PAGE>
 
  Laundry Route Expenditures. Laundry route expenditures, which are primarily
variable expenses which change with the increases and decreases in revenue and
include costs associated with installing and servicing machines, as well as
the costs of collecting, counting and depositing the revenue, increased by
$1,277,000, or 12%, to $12,232,000 in 1997 from $10,955,000 in 1996. This
increase was due to the general increase in revenue, which resulted in
increased servicing, collecting, counting and depositing activity, increased
levels of expenses associated with improving service in some of the acquired
businesses, and other associated costs.
 
  Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization includes
depreciation and amortization included as a component of cost of revenue, as
well as depreciation which is included as an operating expense. Aggregate
depreciation and amortization increased by $2,405,000, or 36%, to $9,138,000
in 1997 from $6,733,000 in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to
the acquisition of nine laundry route businesses in 1996 and 1997, which
resulted in additional machines to depreciate, as well as an increase in
intangible assets to amortize, and the placement of additional machines on
Mac-Gray's existing laundry routes.
 
  Cost of Equipment Sales. Cost of equipment sales increased by $2,998,000, or
58%, to $8,187,000 in 1997 from $5,189,000 in 1996. This increase was a direct
result of increased equipment sales.
 
  General and Administration. General and administration expenses increased by
$747,000, or 19%, to $4,699,000 in 1997 from $3,952,000 in 1996. This increase
was attributable to an increase in professional fees and to the hiring of
additional clerical and administrative staff to support the growth in Mac-
Gray's business.
 
  Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expense increased by $1,362,000, or
36%, to $5,165,000 in 1997 from $3,803,000 in 1996. This increase was
attributable to the expansion of the marketing department, led by the hiring
of an experienced national marketing executive in the third quarter of 1996,
and an increase in the number of field sales representatives.
 
  Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by
$565,000, or 29%, to $2,521,000 in 1997 from $1,956,000 in 1996. This increase
was primarily attributable to the increased borrowings incurred to finance the
acquisitions made during 1996 and 1997. Interest expense was minimal
subsequent to the IPO because a portion of the net proceeds from that offering
was used to repay the existing indebtedness under the Credit Facility, as
further described below.
 
  Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense increased by $4,741,000 to $5,206,000
in 1997 from $465,000 in 1996 due to the termination of Mac-Gray's S
corporation status concurrent with the IPO. Upon termination of the S
corporation status, Mac-Gray became subject to federal and state income taxes,
with a statutory rate of approximately 40%. As a result, Mac-Gray recognized a
non-recurring charge to income tax expense of approximately $4,037,000 in
October 1997, representing additional net deferred tax liabilities as of the
date the S corporation election was terminated. As the historical income tax
provision prior to the termination of the S corporation status was established
only to provide for income taxes in states that do not recognize Subchapter S
corporations, the income tax provision recorded in 1997 was significantly
higher than the amount recorded in 1996.
 
 Fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 compared to fiscal year ended December
31, 1995.
 
  Revenue. Revenue increased by $13,717,000, or 27%, to $64,427,000 in 1996
from $50,710,000 in 1995. This increase was primarily attributable to the
acquisition of six laundry route businesses, two of which also maintained
Maytag distributorships, as well as internal growth of both card and coin
laundry route revenue and revenue from sales of equipment under various
distribution arrangements. Laundry route revenue increased $9,506,000, of
which $3,596,000 was attributable to the expansion of existing operations and
$5,910,000 was attributable to an increase in the number of machines operated
as a result of the six acquisitions of laundry route businesses. Sales of
equipment increased by $4,211,000, of which $3,111,000 was attributable to the
growth of revenue from existing distributorships and $1,100,000 was
attributable to revenue from two newly acquired distributorships. Mac-Gray
believes that a substantial portion of the growth of revenue from existing
laundry
 
                                      57
<PAGE>
 
routes and from existing distributorships was attributable to Mac-Gray's
increased expenditures on sales and marketing efforts, which are described
below.
 
  Commissions. Commissions increased by $5,289,000, or 26%, to $25,760,000 in
1996 from $20,471,000 in 1995. This increase was primarily attributable to an
increase in laundry route revenue, which resulted in an increase in variable
expenses, including commissions, related thereto, as well as slightly higher
commission rates applicable to the new leases that Mac-Gray acquired or
entered into during 1995 and 1996.
 
  Laundry Route Expenditures. Laundry route expenditures, which include costs
associated with installing and servicing machines and cost of equipment sales,
as well as the cost of collecting, counting and depositing the revenue,
increased by $2,704,000, or 33%, to $10,955,000 in 1996 from $8,251,000 in
1995. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in laundry
route business, which resulted in increased servicing and collecting activity.
 
  Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization includes
depreciation and amortization which is included as a component of cost of
revenue, as well as depreciation which is included as an operating expense.
Aggregate depreciation and amortization increased by $1,379,000, or 26%, to
$6,733,000 in 1996 from $5,354,000 in 1995. The increase was primarily
attributable to the acquisition of six laundry route businesses, which
resulted in additional machines to depreciate, as well as an increase in
intangible assets to amortize, and the placement of 5,143 new machines on Mac-
Gray's existing laundry routes.
 
  Cost of Equipment Sales. Cost of equipment sales increased by $2,251,000, or
77%, to $5,189,000 in 1996 from $2,938,000 in 1995. This increase was
attributable to increased equipment sales.
 
  General and Administration. General and administration expenses increased by
$51,000, or 1%, to $3,952,000 in 1996 from $ 3,901,000 in 1995. This increase
was attributable to the hiring of additional clerical and administrative staff
to help support the increase in the laundry route business, as well as the
increase in distributorship business. General and administration expenses for
1995 were unusually high as a result of certain expenses related to the
hiring, relocation and subsequent termination of a senior executive.
 
  Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $1,272,000,
or 50%, to $3,803,000 in 1996 from $2,531,000 in 1995. This increase was
attributable to the hiring of a significant number of additional field sales
representatives, the expansion of the marketing department and the hiring of
an experienced national marketing executive in the third quarter of 1996.
 
  Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $781,000, or 66%, to
$1,956,000 in 1996 from $1,175,000 in 1995. This increase was primarily
attributable to increased borrowings incurred to finance the six acquisitions
completed during 1996.
 
  Income Tax Expense. Income tax expenses increased by $91,000, or 24%, to
$465,000 in 1996 from $374,000 in 1995. The effective income tax rate for 1995
was approximately 6.1% compared to 7.8% for 1996. As the historical income tax
provision was established only to provide for income taxes in states that do
not recognize Subchapter S corporations, the statutory income tax rate for
1995 and 1996 was 6%. The effective income tax rate differed from the
statutory rate in 1995 and 1996 due to expenses recorded for book purposes
that are not deductible for income tax purposes.
 
  The statutory income tax rate utilized by Mac-Gray during 1995 and 1996 is
not indicative of the statutory income tax rate of approximately 40% that has
been utilized since termination of Mac-Gray's S corporation status on October
16, 1997.
 
SEASONALITY
 
  Mac-Gray experiences moderate seasonality as a result of its significant
operations in the college and university market. Revenues derived from the
college and university market represent approximately thirty percent of Mac-
Gray's total revenue. These revenues are derived substantially during the
school year which includes the first, second and fourth quarters. Conversely,
Mac-Gray increases its operating expenditures during the third quarter when
colleges and universities are not in session as a result of Mac-Gray's
increased machine installation activities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
  Mac-Gray's primary sources of cash have been operating activities, bank
borrowings, and the proceeds of the IPO. Mac-Gray's primary uses of cash have
been the nine acquisitions consummated since May 1996, capital expenses,
including the purchase of new laundry machines and smart card based payment
systems, the payment of a dividend of $9,000,000 to shareholders in October
1997 and the repayment of the Credit Facility. Mac-Gray anticipates that it
will continue to use cash flow from its operating activities to finance
working capital needs, including interest payments on any outstanding
indebtedness, as well as capital expenditures. Funds available under the
Credit Facility may also be used to finance the cash outlay for the proposed
Merger. Mac-Gray also anticipates that it will use additional funds available
to it under the Credit Facility to finance additional possible acquisitions,
larger capital expenditures and, as needed, working capital.
 
  Cash flow from operations was $10,942,000, $13,650,000 and $10,417,000 for
the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996, 1995, respectively. Cash flow from
operations consists primarily of laundry route revenue, distributorship and
laundry equipment service revenue, commissions, laundry route expenditures,
cost of equipment sales, general and administration expenses and sales and
marketing expenses.
 
  Cash used in investing activities was $20,544,000, $22,070,000 and
$5,105,000 for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996, and 1995,
respectively. Mac-Gray invested $12,196,000, $14,487,000 and $821,000 for the
fiscal years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 in connection with the
acquisitions consummated during those years. Capital expenditures were
$8,681,000, $7,635,000 and $4,421,000 for the years ended December 31, 1997,
1996 and 1995, respectively.
 
  Net cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities were $10,532,000,
$7,382,000, and $(3,549,000) for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996, and
1995, respectively. Financing activities consist primarily of proceeds from
the IPO, proceeds from and repayments of bank borrowings, and payments of
dividends. Mac-Gray also utilized $125,000 as a portion of the consideration
paid in connection with the redemption of 2,275 shares of Mac-Gray Common
Stock as of January 1, 1996.
 
  Mac-Gray maintains a $50 million revolving line of credit under its Credit
Facility with State Street Bank and CoreStates Bank. All borrowings under the
Credit Facility were repaid in October 1997 using proceeds from the IPO.
Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at Mac-Gray's option, at a
rate equal to the prime rate minus 0.5% or LIBOR plus 2.0%. There were no
borrowings under the Credit Facility as of December 31, 1997. The Credit
Facility imposes certain financial covenants on Mac-Gray, including (i) a
limit on Mac-Gray's senior liabilities of 3.5 times and 2.5 times EBITDA for
the prior four quarters ending as of the end of each quarter of 1997 and for
the prior four quarters ending as of the end of each quarter after 1997,
respectively; (ii) a requirement to maintain minimum shareholders equity (as
specifically defined in the Credit Facility), as measured at the end of each
quarter, of $23,000,000 as of December 31, 1996, increasing by $4,000,000 per
year thereafter; (iii) a limit on aggregate capital expenditures of
$7,000,000, $8,000,000 and $9,000,000 for the years ending December 31, 1996,
1997, and 1998 and thereafter, respectively; (iv) minimum EBITDA, measured on
a quarterly basis for the immediately preceding four quarters, of $4,000,000;
(v) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio (EBITDA to scheduled principal and
interest payments) of 1.3:1, 1.1:1 and 1.3:1 for the quarters during 1996,
1997 and 1998 and thereafter, respectively; and (vi) a requirement that Mac-
Gray have minimum annual net income of $4,000,000. Mac-Gray was in compliance
with all such covenants, or received a written waiver with respect to any non-
compliance therewith, as of the year ended December 31, 1997. The Credit
Facility under certain limited circumstances, also restricts the payment of
dividends and other distributions as well as certain acquisitions and
investments. The Credit Facility is secured by a blanket lien on Mac-Gray's
assets and the assets of each of its subsidiaries, as well as a pledge by Mac-
Gray of all of the capital stock of its subsidiaries.
 
  In connection with the Sun Services Acquisition in April 1997, Mac-Gray
issued 612,026 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock to the owner of Sun Services.
As a privately owned company issuing shares of its common stock, which, at
that point, were substantially illiquid, Mac-Gray provided the Sun Services
owner with the right to require Mac-Gray to repurchase the shares of Mac-Gray
Common Stock issued by Mac-Gray as consideration
 
                                      59
<PAGE>
 
in the acquisition. Mac-Gray also received certain rights ( the "Call Rights")
to repurchase such shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock. Upon consummation of the
IPO, the Call Rights terminated. Mac-Gray remains obligated to repurchase the
612,026 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock at a price of $12.74 per share in the
event the holder or holders of such shares elect to exercise the Put Rights,
representing an aggregate purchase price of approximately $7.8 million. Such
remaining Put Rights expire on October 22, 2000. In the event such Put Rights
are exercised, Mac-Gray would likely fund the purchase price for such shares
of Mac-Gray Common Stock by incurring additional indebtedness under its Credit
Facility. See "Management of Mac-Gray--Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions."
 
  Mac-Gray has used all of the net proceeds from the IPO to repay existing
outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility, to fund a $9,000,000
dividend paid to shareholders in October 1997 and to fund two laundry route
acquisitions, one in October 1997 for approximately $2,075,000 and one in
November 1997 for approximately $5,075,000. Mac-Gray believes that amounts
available under the Credit Facility and cash flow generated by operations will
be sufficient to fund Mac-Gray's normal working capital needs and capital
expenditures for the foreseeable future, including Mac-Gray's current purchase
commitment with Schlumberger to purchase smart card based equipment. Based
upon the purchase commitment with Schlumberger, such purchases, in the
aggregate, could represent a material portion of Mac-Gray's capital
expenditures for fiscal year 1998. In addition, if Mac-Gray were to borrow all
amounts then available to it under the Credit Facility in connection with one
or more acquisitions, or in connection with significant capital expenditures,
either in the short-term or in the long-term, management believes that cash
generated from operating activities would be sufficient to fund Mac-Gray's
operating expenses and debt service needs for the foreseeable future,
including the cash outlay associated with the proposed Merger. Additional
financing under the Credit Facility or otherwise may, however, be required in
connection with an acquisition or acquisitions which Mac-Gray may consummate
in the future. If any such additional financing were needed, and could not be
obtained on terms favorable to Mac-Gray, if at all, Mac-Gray's ongoing capital
improvement efforts and acquisition activity would likely be reduced or
delayed as cash generated from operating activities was used for operating
expenses and debt service. See "Risk Factors--Risks Associated with
Acquisitions; Integration of Acquired Businesses."
 
INFLATION
 
  Mac-Gray does not believe that its financial performance has been materially
affected by inflation.
 
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
  The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (SFAS

BOARD OF DIRECTORS
 
  The business of Mac-Gray is managed under the direction of the Mac-Gray
Board and the number of directors of Mac-Gray is currently fixed at six. The
Mac-Gray Charter provides that the Mac-Gray Board shall be divided into three
classes. The members of each class of directors serve for staggered three-year
terms. The Mac-Gray Board is composed of two Class I Directors (Messrs.
Flanagan and Leydon), two Class II Directors (Messrs. Huenink and Schiller)
and two Class III Directors (Messrs. MacDonald and Doggett), whose initial
terms will expire upon the election and qualification of directors at the
annual meetings of stockholders held following the fiscal years ending
December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively. At each annual meeting of
stockholders, directors will be re-elected or elected for a full term of three
years to succeed those directors whose terms are expiring.
 
  The Mac-Gray Board has established an Audit Committee (the "Audit
Committee") and a Compensation Committee (the "Compensation Committee"). The
Audit Committee recommends to the Mac-Gray Board the firm to be appointed as
independent accountants to audit financial statements and to perform services
related to the audit, reviews the scope and results of the audit with the
independent accountants, reviews with management and the independent
accountants Mac-Gray's year-end operating results, considers the adequacy of
the internal accounting procedures and considers the effect of such procedures
on the accountants' independence. The Audit Committee consists of Messrs.
Leydon and Schiller. The Compensation Committee, which consists of Messrs.
MacDonald, Leydon and Schiller, reviews and recommends to the Mac-Gray Board
the compensation arrangements for all directors and officers other than Mr.
MacDonald, whose compensation arrangements are reviewed and recommended by
Messrs. Leydon and Schiller, approves such arrangements for other senior level
employees and administers and takes such other action as may be required in
connection with certain compensation and incentive plans of Mac-Gray. The
Compensation Committee also determines the number of options to be granted or
shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock to be issued to eligible persons under the
1997 Stock Plan and prescribes the terms and provisions of each grant made
under the 1997 Stock Plan other than with respect to the eligibility of Mr.
MacDonald, as to whom the full Mac-Gray Board makes such
 
                                      62
<PAGE>
 
determinations. In addition, the Compensation Committee construes and
interprets the 1997 Stock Plan and issuances thereunder, and establishes,
amends and revokes rules and regulations for administration of the 1997 Stock
Plan.
 
  Members of the Mac-Gray Board who are also employees of Mac-Gray do not
receive compensation for their services on the Mac-Gray Board or any committee
thereof. Each director who is not an employee of Mac-Gray (an "Independent
Director") receives an annual fee of $12,000 and an additional fee of $500 per
meeting of the Mac-Gray Board. In addition, upon consummation of the IPO, each
Independent Director was granted an option to purchase 1,000 shares of Mac-
Gray Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of Mac-
Gray Common Stock. Under the 1997 Stock Plan, each new Independent Director is
also entitled to receive an initial grant of an option to purchase 1,000
shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock upon his or her election to the Mac-Gray
Board, and each Independent Director who is serving as a director of Mac-Gray
on the fifth business day after each annual meeting of stockholders, beginning
with the 1998 annual meeting, will automatically be granted an option to
purchase 1,000 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock. All options granted to
Independent Directors under the 1997 Stock Plan shall be exercisable
immediately and shall terminate upon the tenth anniversary of the date of
grant. See "--1997 Stock Option and Incentive Plan--Stock Options Granted to
Independent Directors."
 
  All members of the Mac-Gray Board are reimbursed for travel expenses
incurred in attending meetings of the Mac-Gray Board and its committees.

(1) Each option agreement with respect to one or more shares of Mac-Gray
    Common Stock provides that such option will vest and become exercisable
    with respect to twenty percent (20%) of the shares of Mac-Gray Common
    Stock to which such option agreement relates on each of August 14, 1998,
    1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002.
(2) All options were granted at fair market value as determined by the Mac-

(3) This column shows the hypothetical gain or option spreads of the options
    granted based on assumed annual compound stock appreciation rates of 5%
    and 10% over the full 10-year term of the options. The gains shown are net
    of the option exercise price, but do not include deductions for taxes or
    other expenses associated with the exercise. The 5% and 10% assumed rates
    of appreciation are mandated by the rules of the Commission and do not
    represent Mac-Gray's estimate or projection of future Mac-Gray Common
    Stock prices. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises will depend
    on the future performance of the Mac-Gray Common Stock, the optionholders'
    continued employment through the option period and the date on which the
    options are exercised.

1997 STOCK OPTION AND INCENTIVE PLAN
 
  In December 1996, the Mac-Gray Board adopted, and the Mac-Gray stockholders
approved, the Mac-Gray Co., Inc. 1996 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the
"Predecessor Plan"). On April 7, 1997, the Mac-Gray Board adopted and Mac-
Gray's stockholders approved the 1997 Stock Plan, which replaced the
Predecessor Plan and is designed and intended as a performance incentive for
officers, employees, consultants and Independent Directors to promote the
financial success and progress of Mac-Gray. Mac-Gray anticipates that
providing such persons with a direct stake in Mac-Gray's welfare will assure a
closer identification of their interests with those of Mac-Gray, thereby
stimulating their efforts on Mac-Gray's behalf and strengthening their desire
to remain with Mac-Gray. All officers, employees and Independent Directors are
eligible to participate in the 1997 Stock Plan.
 
  The 1997 Stock Plan provides for the issuance of up to the greater of (i)
750,000 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock or (ii) ten percent of the then
outstanding shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock. Mac-Gray currently has reserved
1,158,112 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock for issuance under the 1997 Stock
Plan, of which 637,290 shares are subject to outstanding options and 520,822
remain available for issuance. Pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code, options
with respect to no more than 150,000 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock may be
granted to any one individual in any calendar year.
 
  On December 30, 1996, Mac-Gray Co. granted to Messrs. MacDonald, MacLellan,
Olbrych and Flanagan, as well as certain other employees of Mac-Gray, options
to purchase 148,700, 81,800, 81,800 and 74,350 shares, respectively, of Mac-
Gray Common Stock (the "1996 Options") pursuant to the Predecessor Plan. The
1996 Options were subsequently assumed by Mac-Gray under the 1997 Stock Plan,
and the Predecessor Plan was terminated. On August 14, 1997, Mac-Gray granted
to Messrs. MacDonald, MacLellan, Olbrych and Flanagan, as well as certain
other employees of Mac-Gray, options to purchase 14,870, 8,180, 8,180 and
7,435 shares, respectively, of Mac-Gray Common Stock (the "1997 Options")
pursuant to the 1997 Stock Plan. The vesting schedule of the 1996 Options and
the 1997 Options provide that twenty percent (20%) of such options are
exercisable on each of the first through fifth anniversaries of the date of
grant of such options. Accordingly, twenty percent (20%) of the 1996 Options
and none of the 1997 Options, which have exercise prices of $8.80 and $9.25
per share, respectively, are currently exercisable. The exercise prices of
$8.80 and $9.25 per share were determined by the Mac-Gray Board to be the fair
market value of the shares underlying such options on the respective dates of
grant.
 
  The following summary description does not purport to be complete and is
qualified in its entirety by the 1997 Stock Plan.
 
  Plan Administration; Eligibility. The 1997 Stock Plan is administered by the
Mac-Gray Board or the Compensation Committee. All members of the Compensation
Committee must be "disinterested persons" as that term is defined under the
rules promulgated by the Commission and "outside directors" as defined in
Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
 
  The Compensation Committee has full power to select, from among the
employees and other persons eligible for awards, the individuals to whom
awards will be granted, to make any combination of awards to participants, and
to determine the specific terms and conditions of each award, subject to the
provisions of the 1997 Stock Plan. The Compensation Committee may permit Mac-
Gray Common Stock, and other amounts payable pursuant to an award, to be
deferred. In such instances, the Compensation Committee may permit dividend or
deemed dividends to be credited to the amount of deferrals.
 
  Persons eligible to participate in the 1997 Stock Plan will be those
officers, employees and other key persons, such as consultants, of Mac-Gray
and its subsidiaries who are responsible for or contribute to the management,
growth or profitability of Mac-Gray and its subsidiaries, as selected from
time to time by the Compensation Committee. Independent Directors will also be
eligible for certain awards under the 1997 Stock Plan.
 
 
                                      65

  Stock Options. The 1997 Stock Plan permits the granting of (i) options to
purchase Mac-Gray Common Stock intended to qualify as incentive stock options
under Section 422 of the Code ("Incentive Options") and (ii) options that do
not so qualify ("Non-Qualified Options"). Only employees of Mac-Gray and its
subsidiaries may be granted Incentive Options. The option exercise price of
each option will be determined by the Compensation Committee but may not be
less than 100% of the fair market value of the Mac-Gray Common Stock on the
date of grant in the case of Incentive Options, and may not be less than 85%
of the fair market value of the Mac-Gray Common Stock on the date of grant in
the case of Non-Qualified Options. Employees participating in the 1997 Stock
Plan may, however, elect, with the consent of the Compensation Committee, to
receive discounted Non-Qualified Options in lieu of cash bonuses. In the case
of such grants, the option exercise price must be at least 50% of the fair
market value of the Mac-Gray Common Stock on the date of grant.
 
  The term of each option will be fixed by the Compensation Committee and may
not exceed ten years from the date of grant in the case of an Incentive
Option. The Compensation Committee will determine at what time or times each
option may be exercised and, subject to the provisions of the 1997 Stock Plan,
the period of time, if any, after retirement, death, disability or termination
of employment during which options may be exercised. Options may be made
exercisable in installments, and the exercisability of options may be
accelerated by the Compensation Committee.
 
  Upon exercise of options, the option exercise price must be paid in full
either in cash or by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to
the Compensation Committee or, if the Compensation Committee so permits, by
delivery of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock already owned by the optionee. The
exercise price may also be delivered to Mac-Gray by a broker pursuant to
irrevocable instructions to the broker from the optionee.
 
  At the discretion of the Compensation Committee, stock options granted under
the 1997 Stock Plan may include a "re-load" feature pursuant to which an
optionee exercising an option by the delivery of shares of Mac-Gray Common
Stock would automatically be granted an additional stock option (with an
exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Mac-Gray Common Stock on
the date the additional stock option is granted) to purchase that number of
shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock equal to the number delivered to exercise the
original stock option. One of the purposes of this feature is to enable
participants to maintain an equity interest in Mac-Gray without dilution.
 
  To qualify as Incentive Options, options must meet additional federal tax
requirements, including limits on the value of shares subject to Incentive
Options which first become exercisable in any one calendar year, and a shorter
term and higher minimum exercise price in the case of certain large
stockholders.
 
  Stock Options Granted to Independent Directors. Pursuant to the 1997 Stock
Plan, upon the consummation of the IPO, each Independent Director was
automatically granted a Non-Qualified Option to purchase 1,000 shares of Mac-
Gray Common Stock. The 1997 Stock Plan also provides for the automatic grant
to each Independent Director of a Non-Qualified Option to purchase 1,000
shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock upon his or her initial election to the Mac-
Gray Board. In addition, each Independent Director who is serving as a
director of Mac-Gray on the fifth business day after each annual meeting of
stockholders, beginning with the 1998 annual meeting, will automatically be
granted on such day a Non-Qualified Option to acquire 1,000 shares of Mac-Gray
Common Stock. The exercise price of each such Non-Qualified Option is the fair
market value of the Mac-Gray Common Stock on the date of grant. All of such
Non-Qualified Options granted to Independent Directors are exercisable
immediately and terminate on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant.
 
  Stock Appreciation Right. The Compensation Committee may award a stock
appreciation right ("SAR") either as a freestanding award or in tandem with a
stock option. Upon exercise of the SAR, the holder will be entitled to receive
an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value on the date of exercise
of one share of Mac-Gray Common Stock over the exercise price per share
specified in the related stock option (or, in the case of freestanding SAR,
the price per share specified in such right, which price may not be less than
85% of the fair market value of the Mac-Gray Common Stock on the date of
grant) times the number of shares of Mac-Gray
 
                                      66
<PAGE>
 
Common Stock with respect to which the SAR is exercised. This amount may be
paid in cash, Mac-Gray Common Stock, or a combination thereof, as determined
by the Compensation Committee. If the SAR is granted in tandem with a stock
option, exercise of the SAR cancels the related option to the extent of such
exercise.
 
  Restricted Stock. The Compensation Committee may also award shares of Mac-
Gray Common Stock to officers, other employees and key persons of Mac-Gray
subject to such conditions and restrictions as the Compensation Committee may
determine ("Restricted Stock"). These conditions and restrictions may include
the achievement of certain performance goals and/or continued employment with
Mac-Gray through a specified restricted period. The purchase price of shares
of Restricted Stock will be determined by the Compensation Committee. If the
performance goals and other restrictions are not attained, the employees will
forfeit their awards of Restricted Stock.
 
  Unrestricted Stock. The Compensation Committee may also grant shares (at no
cost or for a purchase price determined by the Committee) which are free from
any restrictions under the 1997 Stock Plan ("Unrestricted Stock").
Unrestricted Stock may be issued to employees and key persons in recognition
of past services or other valid consideration, and may be issued in lieu of
cash bonuses to be paid to such employees and key persons.
 
  Subject to the consent of the Compensation Committee, an employee or key
person of Mac-Gray may make an irrevocable election to receive a portion of
his compensation in Unrestricted Stock (valued at fair market value on the
date the cash compensation would otherwise be paid).
 
  An Independent Director may, pursuant to an irrevocable written election at
least six months before directors' fees would otherwise be paid, receive all
or a portion of such fees in Unrestricted Stock, valued at fair market value
on the date the directors' fees would otherwise be paid. In certain instances,
an Independent Director may also elect to defer a portion of his director fees
payable in the form of Unrestricted Stock, in accordance with such rules and
procedures as may from time to time be established by Mac-Gray. During the
period of deferral, the deferred Unrestricted Stock would receive dividend
equivalent rights.
 
  Performance Share Awards. The Compensation Committee may also grant
performance share awards to employees or other key persons of Mac-Gray
entitling the recipient to receive shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock upon the
achievement of individual or company performance goals and such other
conditions as the Compensation Committee shall determine ("Performance Share
Award").
 
  Dividend Equivalent Rights. The Compensation Committee may grant dividend
equivalent rights, which give the recipient the right to receive credits for
dividends that would be paid if the grantee had held specified shares of Mac-
Gray Common Stock. Dividend equivalent rights may be granted as a component of
another award or as a freestanding award. Dividend equivalents credited under
the 1997 Stock Plan may be paid currently or be deemed to be reinvested in
additional shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock, which may thereafter accrue
additional dividend equivalents at fair market value at the time of deemed
reinvestment or on the terms then governing the reinvestment of dividends
under Mac-Gray's dividend reinvestment plan, if any. Dividend equivalent
rights may be settled in cash, shares, or a combination thereof, in a single
installment or installments, as specified in the award. Awards payable in cash
on a deferred basis may provide for crediting and payment of interest
equivalents.
 
  Adjustments for Stock Dividends, Mergers, Etc. The Compensation Committee
will make appropriate adjustments in outstanding awards to reflect stock
dividends, stock splits and similar events. In the event of a merger,
liquidation, sale of Mac-Gray or similar event, the Compensation Committee, in
its discretion, may provide for substitution or adjustments of outstanding
options and SARs, or may terminate all unexercised options and SARs with or
without payment of cash consideration.
 
  Amendments and Termination. The Mac-Gray Board may at any time amend or
discontinue the 1997 Stock Plan and the Compensation Committee may at any time
amend or cancel outstanding awards for the purpose of satisfying changes in
the law or for any other lawful purpose. No such action may be taken, however,
 
                                      67
<PAGE>
 
which adversely affects any rights under outstanding awards without the
holder's consent. Further, amendments to the 1997 Stock Plan shall be subject
to approval by Mac-Gray's stockholders if and to the extent required by the
Exchange Act, to ensure that awards granted under the 1997 Stock Plan are
exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or required by the
Code to preserve the qualified status of Incentive Options.
 
  Change in Control Provisions. The 1997 Stock Plan provides that in the event
of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets or Mac-Gray Common Stock,
a merger or consolidation which results in a change in control of Mac-Gray or
the liquidation or dissolution of Mac-Gray (a "Change in Control"), all stock
options and SARs shall automatically become fully exercisable. In addition, at
any time prior to or after a Change in Control, the Compensation Committee may
accelerate awards and waive conditions and restrictions on any awards to the
extent it may determine appropriate.
 
STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS
 
  Prior to the IPO, Mac-Gray terminated the Mac-Gray Co., Inc. 1992 Stock
Appreciation Rights Plan (the "1992 SAR Plan"). There are no outstanding stock
appreciation rights under the 1992 SAR Plan.
 
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS WITH EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
 
  Mac-Gray is not a party to any employment agreements with any of its
executive officers.
 
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
 
  All executive officer compensation decisions will be made by the
Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee will review and make
recommendations regarding the compensation for management and key employees of
Mac-Gray, including salaries and bonuses. The members of the Compensation
Committee are Messrs. MacDonald, Leydon and Schiller. Prior to May 2, 1997,
and prior to the creation of the Compensation Committee, each of Messrs.
MacDonald, Olbrych and Flanagan participated in deliberations of the Mac-Gray
Board concerning executive compensation.
 
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
 
  In April 1997, Mac-Gray consummated the Sun Services Acquisition whereby it
acquired Sun Services via mergers in which it issued an aggregate
consideration of approximately $2 million and 612,026 shares of Mac-Gray
Common Stock to Jeffrey C. Huenink, who is currently a member of the Mac-Gray
Board and a stockholder of Mac-Gray. In connection with the Sun Services
Acquisition, Mac-Gray entered into a non-competition agreement (the "Huenink
Non-Competition Agreement") and a Consulting Agreement (the "Consulting
Agreement") with Mr. Huenink, the former owner of Sun Services. The Huenink
Non-Competition Agreement prohibits Mr. Huenink from conducting business in
Mac-Gray's principal industry for a period of three years from the later of
the date of termination of the Consulting Agreement and the date that Mr.
Huenink ceases to be a director of Mac-Gray. Pursuant to the terms of the
Consulting Agreement, Mr. Huenink is to advise Mac-Gray through April 16, 2002
with respect to its acquisition strategy and assist Mac-Gray in seeking out
acquisition candidates that complement this strategy. Mac-Gray has provided
Mr. Huenink with incentives to identify acquisition candidates that may be
successfully integrated into Mac-Gray including a combined fixed rate/bonus
compensation package. The fixed rate portion of the compensation package
provides Mr. Huenink with an annual consulting payment of $50,000 during each
of the first and second years of the Consulting Agreement and $100,000 for
each of the third through fifth years. In addition, the bonus portion of the
compensation package is computed based upon a percentage (1% during the first
and second years and .75% during each of the third through fifth years) of
revenues of certain acquired businesses and is guaranteed to be at least
$225,000 during each of the first and second years of the Consulting
Agreement.
 
  In connection with the Sun Services Acquisition, Mac-Gray entered into a
Stockholders' Agreement (the "First Stockholders' Agreement") with Mr. Huenink
and certain principal stockholders of Mac-Gray pursuant
 
                                      68
<PAGE>
 
to which (i) Mr. Huenink received demand and "piggy-back" registration rights,
(ii) each such stockholder agreed to vote their respective shares in favor of
Mr. Huenink's election to the Mac-Gray Board until the earlier to occur of (a)
April 17, 1999, and (b) such time as Mr. Huenink ceases to hold five percent
of the outstanding shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock, (iii) Mr. Huenink received
the Put Right, and (iv) Mac-Gray received the Call Right, which Call Right
terminated upon the consummation of the IPO. The Put Right expires on October
22, 2000. See "Mac-Gray's Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation--Liquidity and Capital Resources" and
Footnote 3 to the table included under "Principal Stockholders of Mac-Gray."
 
  In connection with the Mac-Gray Combination, Mac-Gray (i) acquired all of
the shares of common stock, $.01 par value per share, of Mac-Gray Co. from
each of Mr. Stewart Gray MacDonald, Jr. ("Mr. S. MacDonald, Jr."), Ms. Sandra
E. MacDonald ("Ms. S. MacDonald"), Mr. Daniel W. MacDonald ("Mr. D.
MacDonald," and collectively, the "MacDonalds") and certain trusts under which
such individuals are beneficiaries in exchange for an aggregate of 5,000,000
shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock and (ii) acquired all of the limited partner
interests in the Limited Partnership from each of the MacDonalds in exchange
for an aggregate of 1,367,800 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock. Immediately
after the Mac-Gray Combination, Mac-Gray effected the merger of the Limited
Partnership with and into Mac-Gray Co., the Limited Partnership's sole general
partner. Mac-Gray and Mac-Gray Co. have assumed the existing liabilities and
indebtedness of the Limited Partnership. Mr. S. MacDonald, Jr. is Chief
Executive Officer and Chairman of the Mac-Gray Board, and each of Mr. S.
MacDonald, Jr., Ms. S. MacDonald and Mr. D. MacDonald own of record and
beneficially greater than five percent of the outstanding shares of Mac-Gray
Common Stock.
 
  Pursuant to a Stockholders' Agreement by and among Mac-Gray and certain of
its stockholders (the "Second Stockholders' Agreement," and together with the
First Stockholders' Agreement, the "Stockholders' Agreements"), (i) each of
Mr. S. MacDonald, Jr., Ms. S. MacDonald and Mr. D. MacDonald (and any
assignees or trusts created by them or under which they are beneficiaries)
received "piggy-back" and demand registration rights, (ii) each of the
MacDonalds granted to and received rights of first offer to purchase shares of
Mac-Gray Common Stock offered for sale by another stockholder who is a party
thereto and (iii) the MacDonalds granted to Mac-Gray rights of second offer to
purchase such shares. See Footnote 3 to the table included under "Principal
Stockholders of Mac-Gray."
 
  In 1977, Mac-Gray Co. entered into an arrangement with Mac-Gray's co-founder
and then Chief Executive Officer that provided his wife, Ms. Evelyn C.
MacDonald ("Ms. E. MacDonald"), with an annual payment following his death.
Mac-Gray, through its subsidiary, Mac-Gray Services, pays Ms. E. MacDonald,
the mother of Mr. S. MacDonald, Jr., Mac-Gray's Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer, a fixed amount of $104,000 per year pursuant to this arrangement,
which is not evidenced by a comprehensive written agreement, and will continue
to make such payments for the remainder of Ms. E. MacDonald's life. See Note 8
of the Notes to Combined Financial Statements of Mac-Gray Corporation.
 
  Immediately following the consummation of the IPO, Mac-Gray distributed
approximately $9.0 million of the proceeds thereof to its stockholders of
record as of a date immediately prior to the consummation of the IPO. This
distribution represented a significant portion of Mac-Gray's and certain of
its predecessor's historical, undistributed earnings through June 30, 1997,
which were previously taxed for federal and state income tax purposes directly
to the stockholders of Mac-Gray.

         PRO FORMA UNAUDITED CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
  The following pro forma unaudited financial information gives effect to the
Merger to be accounted for as a pooling of interests. The pro forma unaudited
condensed balance sheet presents the combined financial position of Mac-Gray
and Intirion as of December 31, 1997 assuming that the Merger had occurred as
of December 31, 1997. Such pro forma information is based upon the historical
balance sheet data of Mac-Gray and Intirion as of that date. The pro forma
unaudited condensed statement of operations gives effect to the proposed
Merger by combining the results of operations of Mac-Gray for the three years
ended December 31, 1997 with the results of operations of Intirion for the
three years ended June 30, 1997, respectively, on a pooling of interests
basis. The pro forma unaudited Mac-Gray condensed statement of operations data
for the year ended December 31, 1997 include the results of operations of Sun
Services as if the Sun Services Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1997.
The historical results of Sun Services for the period from April 1, 1997 to
April 17, 1997 (the acquisition date) have not been included and are not
material to Mac-Gray. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of income for
Sun Services has been included following the notes to pro forma unaudited
condensed combined financial information. The operations of Intirion for the
six months ended December 31, 1997, resulting in net sales and net income of
$13,355,000 and $289,000, have not been included in the pro forma statements
of operations.
 
  The pro forma unaudited financial information does not purport to represent
what Mac-Gray's financial position or results of operations would have
actually been had the Merger occurred at the beginning of the earliest period
presented or to project Mac-Gray's financial position or results of operations
for any future date or period. This pro forma unaudited financial information
should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and
notes thereto of Mac-Gray and Intirion included elsewhere in this
Prospectus/Proxy Statement.

(a) The pro forma condensed balance sheet gives effect to the proposed Merger
    of Mac-Gray and Intirion by combining the respective balance sheets of the
    two companies at December 31, 1997 on a pooling of interests basis. As
    shown above, the accounts have been adjusted to reflect the issuance of
    1,593,061 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock and approximately $1,000,000 in
    exchange for all of the outstanding securities of Intirion. The excess of
    the value of Intirion securities received in exchange over the value of
    Mac-Gray Common Stock issued has been credited to additional paid-in
    capital. The accounts have also been adjusted to reflect estimated
    transaction costs of approximately $600,000 associated with the proposed
    Merger. See Note 3 on page 78.

shares of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock, Intirion Common Stock, $12.50
Warrants, $5.00 Warrants, Miscellaneous Warrants and Intirion Options and
assuming that 275,224 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock and approximately $1
million was issued in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of
Intirion Senior Preferred Stock.
 
  The following table summarizes the Intirion Exchangeable Securities (other
than the Intirion Senior Preferred Stock) and identifies the shares of Mac-
Gray Common Stock to be issued in the exchange. The table excludes the
estimated 275,224 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock and approximately $1 million
to be issued in exchange for the Intirion Senior Preferred Stock as these
shares are not common equivalent shares of Intirion Common Stock and are being
exchanged for a combination of Mac-Gray Common Stock and cash. The equivalent
number of common shares presented below represents the incremental number of
Intirion shares to be issued using the treasury stock method.

  The pro forma unaudited combined condensed balance sheet gives effect to the
proposed Merger by combining the respective balance sheets of Mac-Gray and
Intirion at December 31, 1997 on a pooling of interests basis. The excess of
the value of Intirion shares received in exchange over the value of Mac-Gray
shares issued ($5,756,000) has been credited to additional paid-in capital.
 
  The pro forma unaudited combined condensed statements of operations give
effect to the proposed Merger by combining the results of operations of Mac-
Gray for the three years ended December 31, 1997 with the results of
operations of Intirion for the three years ended June 30, 1997, respectively,
on a pooling of interests basis. The pro forma unaudited condensed combined
statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 also gives effect
to Mac-Gray's acquisition of Sun Services on April 17, 1997, in a transaction
accounted for as a purchase, and includes the results of operations of Sun
Services as if it had occurred on January 1, 1997.
 
  2. There were no transactions between Mac-Gray and Intirion during any of
the periods presented.
 
  3. Mac-Gray and Intirion expect to incur aggregate transaction costs of
approximately $600,000 associated with the proposed Merger, primarily in the
quarter in which the proposed Merger will be consummated. The pro forma
condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 1997 has been adjusted to
reflect these costs, most of which will not be deductible for corporate income
tax purposes. These estimated costs are not reflected in the pro forma
unaudited condensed combined statement of operations. The amount of these
costs is a preliminary estimate and therefore is subject to change.
 
  4. Prior to the IPO, Mac-Gray was not subject to corporate federal income
tax as all taxable income was passed through to the stockholders and was
reported on their personal tax returns. Accordingly, the results of Mac-Gray
through October 16, 1997 do not include any corporate federal income tax
provisions.

The pro forma information on the accompanying unaudited condensed combined
statement of operations reflects the estimated results of operations as if
Mac-Gray had been subject to corporate income taxes during the periods
presented. A similar pro forma calculation has been included in Mac-Gray's
historical financial statements, as more fully described in Note 15 of Mac-
Gray's Consolidated Financial Statements. Similar adjustments were not made
for Intirion, as Intirion was subject to corporate federal income tax for all
periods presented.
   
  5. The pro forma unaudited combined net income per share amounts are based
on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock
equivalents issued and outstanding of Mac-Gray and Intirion for each period
and have been restated to give effect to the adoption of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128) and Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 98 (SAB 98). Shares of Intirion have been adjusted to the
equivalent shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock for each period presented. Net
income per share amounts for Mac-Gray are reflective of the Mac-Gray
Combination.

  The following unaudited pro forma combined statement of income for the year

1997 through April 16, 1997 have not been included and are not material to
Mac-Gray.

    Services for the period from April 1, 1997 to April 16, 1997 have not been

(2) Reflects increased amortization, due to Mac-Gray application of purchase
    accounting in the Sun Services Acquisition, in which the excess of the
    purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was
    allocated to goodwill and is being amortized over twenty years.
(3) Reflects the decrease in general and administration expenses due to the
    reduction of Sun Services executive compensation costs as a result of
    certain agreements entered into in connection with the Sun Services
    Acquisition.
(4) The 1997 provision for income taxes includes a non-recurring charge of
    $4,037 as a result of the termination of Mac-Gray's S corporation status.
   
(5) Pro forma tax adjusted net income has been adjusted to give effect to Mac-
    Gray's operations as if Mac-Gray were subject to federal and state income
    taxes on a corporate level (at an estimated income tax of 40%) during the
    periods presented.     
   
(6) Mac-Gray adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS

  On December 22, 1997, the trading day prior to the announcement of the
Merger, the closing sales price of Mac-Gray Common Stock, as reported on the
NYSE, was $15.875 per share. On February 17, 1998, the closing sales price of
Mac-Gray Common Stock, as reported on the NYSE, was $15.5625 per share. As of
February 17, 1998, there were 11,581,126 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
outstanding held by 39 holders of record.
 
  Mac-Gray does not currently pay dividends on Mac-Gray Common Stock. The Mac-
Gray Board currently intends to retain future earnings, if any, for the
development of Mac-Gray's businesses and does not anticipate paying cash
dividends on Mac-Gray Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Future
determinations by the Mac-Gray Board to pay dividends on Mac-Gray Common Stock
would be based primarily upon the financial condition, results of operations
and business requirements of Mac-Gray. Dividends, if any, would be payable in
the sole discretion of Mac-Gray Board out of the funds legally available
therefor.
 
  No established public trading market exists for Intirion Common Stock and,
accordingly, no market price information is available with respect thereto.
Intirion has never paid cash dividends on Intirion Common Stock. As of
February 17, 1998, there were 759,688 shares of Intirion Common Stock
outstanding and 71 holders of record.
 
                     DESCRIPTION OF MAC-GRAY CAPITAL STOCK
 
AUTHORIZED AND OUTSTANDING CAPITAL STOCK
 
  The authorized capital stock of Mac-Gray consists of 30,000,000 shares of
Mac-Gray Common Stock, $.01 par value per share, and 5,000,000 shares of
undesignated preferred stock issuable in series by the Mac-Gray Board
("Preferred Stock"). As of February 17, 1998, there were 11,581,126 shares of
Mac-Gray Common Stock (including 612,026 shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock
subject to the Put Right) outstanding that were held of record by 39
stockholders. The following summary description of the capital stock of Mac-
Gray does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the Mac-Gray Charter and the Mac-Gray By-laws. The Mac-Gray
Charter and the Mac-Gray By-laws have been adopted by the stockholders of Mac-
Gray and the Mac- Gray Board.
 
  Mac-Gray Common Stock. The holders of Mac-Gray Common Stock are entitled to
one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by stockholders and are
entitled to receive such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to
time by the Mac-Gray Board from funds legally available therefor. The possible
issuance of Preferred Stock with a preference over Mac-Gray Common Stock as to
dividends could impact the dividend rights of holders of Mac-Gray Common
Stock. Holders of Mac-Gray Common Stock are not entitled to cumulative voting
rights. Therefore, the holders of a majority of the shares voted in the
election of directors can elect all of the directors then standing for
election, subject to the rights of the holders of any then outstanding
Preferred Stock, if and when issued. The holders of Mac-Gray Common Stock have
no preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no conversion rights
or redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to the Mac-Gray Common
Stock. Upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of Mac-Gray, the net assets of Mac-Gray shall be distributed pro rata to
the holders of the Mac-Gray Common Stock in accordance with their respective
rights and interests, subject to the rights and interests of the holders of
Preferred Stock, if and when issued. All outstanding shares of Mac-Gray Common
Stock, including the shares to be issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
are, or will be upon consummation of the Merger, fully paid and non-
assessable.
 
                                      81
<PAGE>
 
  The Mac-Gray Charter and the Mac-Gray By-laws provide, subject to the rights
of the holders of any Preferred Stock then outstanding, that the number of
directors shall be fixed by the Mac-Gray Board. The directors, other than
those who may be elected by the holders of any Preferred Stock, are divided
into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, with each class
serving for a three-year term. Subject to any rights of the holders of
Preferred Stock to elect directors and to remove any director whom the holders
of any such stock had the right to elect, any director of Mac-Gray may be
removed from office only with cause and by the affirmative vote of at least
two-thirds of the total votes which would be eligible to be cast by
stockholders in the election of such director.
 
  Undesignated Preferred Stock. The Mac-Gray Board is authorized, without
further action of the stockholders of Mac-Gray, to issue up to 5,000,000
shares of Preferred Stock in classes or series and to fix the designations,
powers, preferences and the relative, participating, optional or other special
rights of the shares of each series and any qualifications, limitations and
restrictions thereon as set forth in the Mac-Gray Charter. Any such Preferred
Stock issued by Mac-Gray may rank prior to the Mac-Gray Common Stock as to
dividend rights, liquidation preference or both, may have full or limited
voting rights and may be convertible into shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock.
 
  The purpose of authorizing the Mac-Gray Board to issue Preferred Stock is,
in part, to eliminate delays associated with a stockholder vote on specific
issuances. The issuance of Preferred Stock could have the effect of making it
more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party
from acquiring or seeking to acquire, a significant portion of the outstanding
Mac-Gray Common Stock.
 
CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE MAC-GRAY CHARTER AND THE MAC-GRAY BY-LAWS
 
  General. A number of provisions of the Mac-Gray Charter and the Mac-Gray By-
laws concern matters of corporate governance and the rights of stockholders.
Certain of these provisions, as well as the ability of the Mac-Gray Board to
issue shares of Preferred Stock and to set the voting rights, preferences and
other terms thereof, may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may
discourage takeover attempts not first approved by the Mac-Gray Board,
including takeovers which certain stockholders may deem to be in their best
interests. To the extent takeover attempts are discouraged, temporary
fluctuations in the market price of Mac-Gray Common Stock, which may result
from actual or rumored takeover attempts, may be inhibited. These provisions,
together with the classified Mac-Gray Board and the ability of the Mac-Gray
Board to issue Preferred Stock without further stockholder action, also could
delay or frustrate the removal of incumbent directors or the assumption of
control by stockholders, even if such removal or assumption would be
beneficial to stockholders of Mac-Gray. These provisions also could discourage
or make more difficult a merger, tender offer or proxy contest, even if a
transaction or contest could be favorable to the interests of stockholders,
and could potentially depress the market price of the Mac-Gray Common Stock.
The Mac-Gray Board believes that these provisions are appropriate to protect
the interests of Mac-Gray and all of its stockholders. The Mac-Gray Board has
no present plans to adopt any other measures or devices which may be deemed to
have an "anti-takeover effect."
 
  Meetings of Stockholders. The Mac-Gray By-laws provide that a special
meeting of stockholders may be called only by the Mac-Gray Board unless
otherwise required by law. The Mac-Gray By-laws provide that only those
matters set forth in the notice of the special meeting may be considered or
acted upon at that special meeting, unless otherwise provided by law. In
addition, the Mac-Gray By-laws set forth certain other requirements, such as
advance notice and informational requirements and time limitations on any
director nomination or any new business which a stockholder wishes to propose
for consideration at an annual meeting of stockholders.
 
  No Stockholder Action by Written Consent. The Mac-Gray Charter provides
that, for so long as Mac-Gray has a class of stock registered pursuant to the
provisions of the Exchange Act, any action required or permitted to be taken
by the stockholders of Mac-Gray at an annual or special meeting of
stockholders must be effected at a duly called meeting and may not be taken or
effected by a written consent of stockholders in lieu thereof.
 
                                      82

  Indemnification and Limitation of Liability. The Mac-Gray By-laws provide
that directors and officers of Mac-Gray shall be, and in the discretion of the
Mac-Gray Board non-officer employees may be, indemnified by Mac-Gray to the
fullest extent authorized by Delaware law, as it now exists or may in the
future be amended, against all expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred in
connection with service for or on behalf of Mac-Gray, and further permits the
advancing of expenses incurred in defense of claims. The Mac-Gray By-laws also
provide that the right of directors and officers to indemnification shall be a
contractual right and shall not be exclusive of any other right now possessed
or hereafter acquired under any by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or
otherwise. The Mac-Gray Charter contains a provision permitted by Delaware law
that generally eliminates the personal liability of directors for monetary
damages for breaches of their fiduciary duty, including breaches involving
negligence or gross negligence in business combinations, unless the director
has breached his or her duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged
in intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, paid a dividend or
approved a stock repurchase in violation of the DGCL or obtained an improper
personal benefit. This provision does not alter a director's liability under
the federal securities laws. In addition, this provision does not affect the
availability of equitable remedies, such as an injunction or rescission, for
breach of fiduciary duty.
 
  Amendment of the Mac-Gray Charter. The Mac-Gray Charter provides that an
amendment thereof must first be approved by a majority of the Mac-Gray Board
and (with certain exceptions) thereafter approved by the holders of a majority
of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on such amendment, and the
affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of each class
entitled to vote thereon as a class; provided, however, that the affirmative
vote of not less than 80% of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on such
amendment, and the affirmative vote of not less than 80% of the outstanding
shares of each class entitled to vote thereon as a class, is required to amend
provisions of the Mac-Gray Charter relating to the prohibition of stockholder
action by written consent, the establishment, composition and powers of the
Mac-Gray Board, the limitation of director liability and amendments to the
Mac-Gray Charter.
 
  Amendment of the Mac-Gray By-laws. The Mac-Gray Charter provides that the
Mac-Gray By-laws may be amended or repealed by the Mac-Gray Board or by the
stockholders. Such action by the Mac-Gray Board requires the affirmative vote
of a majority of the directors then in office. Such action by the stockholders
requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least three-fourths of the
total votes present and eligible to be cast by holders of voting stock voting
as a single class with respect to such amendment or repeal at an annual
meeting of stockholders or a special meeting called for such purpose, unless
the Mac-Gray Board recommends that the stockholders approve such amendment or
repeal at such meeting, in which case such amendment or repeal shall only
require the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes present and
eligible to be cast by holders of voting stock voting as a single class with
respect to such amendment or repeal.
 
  Ability to Adopt Stockholder Rights Plan. The Mac-Gray Board may in the
future resolve to issue shares of Preferred Stock or rights to acquire such
shares, to implement a stockholder rights plan which creates voting or other
impediments or under which shares are distributed to a third-party investor, a
group of investors or stockholders or issued to an employee stock ownership
plan to discourage persons seeking to gain control of Mac-Gray by means of a
merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, if such change in control is
not in the best interests of Mac-Gray and its stockholders. The Mac-Gray Board
has no present intention of adopting a stockholder rights plan and is not
aware of any attempt to obtain control of Mac-Gray.
 
STATUTORY BUSINESS COMBINATION PROVISION
 
  Mac-Gray is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL. Section
203 provides, with certain exceptions, that a Delaware corporation may not
engage in any of a broad range of business combinations with a person, or an
affiliate or associate of such person, who is an "interested stockholder" for
a period of three years from the date that such person became an interested
stockholder unless: (i) the transaction resulting in a person becoming an
interested stockholder, or the business combination, is approved by the board
of directors of the corporation before the person becomes an interested
stockholder; (ii) the interested stockholder acquired 85% or more of the
outstanding voting stock of the corporation in the same transaction that makes
it an interested stockholder (excluding shares owned by persons who are both
officers and directors of the corporation,
 
                                      83
<PAGE>
 
and shares held by certain employee stock ownership plans); or (iii) on or
after the date the person becomes an interested stockholder, the business
combination is approved by the corporation's board of directors and by the
holders of at least two-thirds of the corporation's outstanding voting stock
at an annual or special meeting, excluding shares owned by the interested
stockholder. Under Section 203, an "interested stockholder" is defined (with
certain limited exceptions) as any person that is (x) the owner of 15% or more
of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation or (y) an affiliate or
associate of the corporation and was the owner of 15% or more of the
outstanding voting stock of the corporation at any time within the three-year
period immediately prior to the date on which it is sought to be determined
whether such person is an interested stockholder.
 
  A corporation may, at its option, exclude itself from the coverage of
Section 203 by amending its certificate of incorporation or by-laws by action
of its stockholders to exempt itself from coverage; provided, however, that
such by-law or charter amendment shall not become effective until 12 months
after the date the stockholders adopt such exclusion. Neither the Mac-Gray
Charter nor the Mac-Gray By-laws contains any such exclusion.

                            DESCRIPTION OF INTIRION
 
HISTORY
 
  Intirion was incorporated in 1987 and is headquartered in Walpole,
Massachusetts. Intirion's primary product line is a family of patented
combination refrigerator/freezer/microwave ovens marketed under the brand name
MicroFridge (R). The product's patented circuitry has proven to be an
important feature for those customers who have concerns about electrical
capacity and seek a safer alternative to hot plates and other cooking or
heating appliances. Historically, Intirion has focused its sales efforts on
such "home-away-from-home" marketplaces as colleges and universities, military
bases, economy hotels and motels and assisted living facilities.
 
MARKETS AND CUSTOMERS
 
  Intirion has established a multichannel distribution and sales network in
order to serve its markets and customers. Approximately 85% of Intirion's
revenues are derived from sales of MicroFridge units with the balance coming
from its rental programs. Rental units are leased to academic institutions or
individuals at academic institutions on an annual basis. Intirion's most
significant market, the Academic Living market, is composed of more than 1,600
colleges and universities which have on-campus residence halls. Market
research undertaken by Intirion indicates there are approximately 1.2 million
rooms in this market. Intirion sells its products to colleges and universities
across the continental United States. Intirion believes that it is the largest
refrigerator/microwave rental company serving the Academic Living market. The
second largest market is the Government Living market, consisting principally
of military bases. In this market, the MicroFridge (R) product line is
available through government contracts with the General Services
Administration and the U.S. Air Force. MicroFridge (R) products have been
installed at government facilities throughout the world. The Hotel/Motel
Living market is estimated to have in excess of 3 million rooms.
MicroFridge (R) brand products are sold to the hospitality and lodging
industry throughout the continental United States through an independent
dealer network. The Senior Living market is estimated to have in excess of 1
million rooms.
 
  For the three years ended June 30, 1997, revenues from Intirion's major
markets were as follows:

EMPLOYEES
 
  Intirion employs approximately 50 people. No Intirion employee is covered by
a collective bargaining agreement. Intirion believes that its relationship
with its employees is good. In addition, Intirion employs part-time employees
from time to time based on the seasonality of Intirion sales and rental
operations in the college and university marketplace.
 
COMPETITION
 
  The refrigerator/microwave industry is highly competitive. In addition to
large direct sellers such as General Electric, Intirion also competes with the
major retail stores and local and regional distributors who sell various brand
name compact refrigerators and microwave ovens in the markets served by
Intirion. Although Intirion holds a patent on combination units utilizing
internal circuitry, there has been increased competition since 1995 from
"similar look" products utilizing an external circuitry control mechanism.
Intirion believes that competition will increase as products manufactured in
China reach the U.S. market in quantity. There also exists significant local
and regional competition in Intirion's rental business. Many of the
competitors are local sole proprietorships. The growth in Intirion's rental
business has been derived from both acquisitions and direct sales efforts.
Intirion believes that its expertise gained from being the first entrant in
the market enables it to compete effectively against new entrants in the
combination appliance business. Intirion's principal competitors include
General Electric, Avanti, Absocold, Tatung, Welbilt, Walmart, Sears, Sanyo
Fisher Sales and several companies focused on college rental marketplace. In
addition, new companies not currently competing in the appliance marketplace
could enter the market. Many of such current and potential competitors have
greater financial, marketing, technical and other resources than Intirion.
 
PROPERTIES
 
  Intirion leases its corporate headquarters located at Ten Walpole Park
South, Walpole, Massachusetts. The facility houses corporate, sales,
marketing, customer service and distribution personnel and has 11,990 square
feet of office space and 7,000 square feet of distribution and warehousing
space. The lease terminates on May 31, 2001, with an option to extend for an
additional five-year term. In addition, Intirion leases warehousing and
storage space in San Diego, California. From time to time, Intirion also rents
temporary storage sites throughout the continental United States for seasonal
storage. Intirion believes that its properties are generally well-maintained
and in good condition and are adequate for its present needs and that suitable
additional replacement space will be available as required.
 
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
 
  Intirion holds a United States patent for a Combined Refrigerator and
Microwave Oven with Time Overload Protection. The patent is held jointly with
Sanyo Corporation ("Sanyo") which has entered into a non-competition agreement
pursuant to which Sanyo has agreed not to compete with Intirion, provided that
Intirion purchases from Sanyo a minimum volume of products. Intirion also has
a patent application pending in the United States for the collapsible-upon-
demand LifeSpace (TM) closet maximization system. Intirion also holds a
registered trademark for all MicroFridge (R) brand products and has filed
additional trademark applications for certain new products.
 
SUPPLIERS
 
  Intirion maintains OEM arrangements with three primary manufacturers, Sanyo
E&E Corporation, Daewoo Electronics Co., Ltd. and Imarflex Mfg. Co., Ltd.
Sanyo E&E Corporation has been Intirion's principal supplier since Intirion
was founded. In December 1997, Sanyo signed a non-competition agreement with
Intirion which will remain in effect through the remaining life of the patent
provided that certain minimum annual quantities of products are purchased from
Sanyo. The other OEM agreements are renewable year to year unless terminated
with proper notice.

    liquidity and it is not a measure of performance or financial condition
    under generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA is presented
    because Intirion's management believes that certain investors may find it
    to be a useful tool for measuring Intirion's ability to meet its future
    debt service obligations, make capital expenditures and satisfy working
    capital requirements.

              INTIRION'S MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
OVERVIEW
 
  Intirion derives its revenue principally through the sales of its
proprietary MicroFridge(R) product which is a combination
refrigerator/freezer/microwave oven utilizing patented circuitry. The product
is marketed throughout the continental United States to colleges and
universities, the federal government, mid range hotels and motels and to
builders of assisted living facilities. All of Intirion's products are
manufactured by outside suppliers. In addition to product sales, Intirion
rents the product on a year to year basis to students living in college and
university residence halls. Intirion rents approximately 29,000 units under
its rental program.
 
PROPOSED MERGER
 
  On December 22, 1997, Intirion entered into the Merger Agreement with Mac-
Gray, pursuant to which the Intirion Exchangeable Securities are expected to
be exchanged for approximately 1.6 million shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock and
approximately $1 million in cash. The Merger is expected to be accounted for
as a pooling of interests and is expected to close in early 1998.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
 Six months ended December 31, 1997 compared to six months ended December 31,
1996.
 
  Revenue. Revenue decreased by $667,000, or 5%, to $13,355,000 in 1997 from
$14,022,000 in 1996. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in unit
sales in the college and university market, offset in part by expanded unit
sales in Intirion's other markets and continued expansion in the number of
units placed in Intirion's rental program in the academic living market. Sales
in the college market in 1996 included an unusually large purchase by a major
university which did not recur in 1997.
 
  Cost of Product Sales. Cost of product sales decreased by $916,000, or 10%,
to $7,908,000 in 1997 from $8,824,000 in 1996. The decrease was attributable
to the decrease in product sales and a reduction in product cost from
Intirion's suppliers.
 
  Cost of Rental Revenue. Cost of rental revenue consists primarily of
depreciation of rental assets over an estimated useful life of seven years.
Cost of rental revenue increased by 133,000, or 31%, to $563,000 in 1997 from
$430,000 in 1996. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in
units placed in the rental program.
 
  Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $116,000 or 2%, to $4,884,000 in 1997
from $4,768,000 in 1996. Gross profit as a percent of revenue increased by 3%
to 37% in 1997 from 34% in 1996. The increase was primarily attributable to
reductions in product cost from Intirion's suppliers.
 
  Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $334,000, or 8%, to $4,272,000 in 1997
from $3,938,000 in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to the
addition of support personnel and an increase in warehouse space to support
business growth.
 
  Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $114,000, or 57%, to $314,000
in 1997 from $200,000 in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to the
increased borrowings incurred to finance the purchase of units for Intirion's
rental business and an increase in inventory levels to meet projected
increases in product demand. There were no significant changes in interest
rates charged on Intirion's borrowings in 1997 as compared with 1996.
 
  Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense decreased $10,000, or 53%, to $9,000
in 1997 from $19,000 in 1996. Intirion has been in a tax loss position and the
tax expense is primarily related to taxes due under federal alternative
minimum tax provisions and state excise tax liabilities.
 
 Fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 compared to fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.
 
  Revenue. Revenue increased by $5,644,000, or 32%, to $23,477,000 in 1997
from $17,833,000 in 1996. This increase was primarily due to increased unit
sales in all market segments as well as expansion in the number of units
placed in Intirion's rental program in the academic living market.

  Cost of Product Sales. Cost of product sales increased by $3,623,000, or
35%, to $13,870,000 in 1997 from $10,247,000 in 1996. The increase was
attributable to increased product sales.
 
  Cost of Rental Revenue. Cost of rental revenue consists primarily of
depreciation of rental assets over an estimated useful life of seven years.
Cost of rental revenue increased by $439,000, or 53%, to $1,271,000 in 1997
from $832,000 in 1996. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase
in units placed in the rental program.
 
  Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $1,582,000, or 23%, to $8,336,000 in
1997 from $6,754,000 in 1996. Gross profit as a percent of revenue decreased
by 2% to 36% in 1997 from 38% in 1996. The decrease was primarily attributable
to increases in product costs from vendors which could not be passed on to
customers and increases in storage and handling costs on rental units related
to the expansion of Intirion's rental business.
 
  Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $1,322,000, or 21%, to $7,490,000 in 1997
from $6,168,000 in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to an
increase in commissions and bonuses due to increased revenue and operating
profit and an increase in general operating costs associated with the
relocation of Intirion's headquarters to a new facility.
 
  Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $56,000, or 14%, to $454,000 in
1997 from $398,000 in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to the
increased borrowings incurred to finance the purchase of units for Intirion's
rental business and an increase in inventory levels to meet projected
increases in product demand. There were no significant changes in interest
rates charged on Intirion's borrowings in 1997 as compared with 1996.
 
  Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense decreased $27,000, or 55%, to $22,000
in 1997 from $49,000 in 1996. Intirion has been in a tax loss position and the
tax expense is primarily related to taxes due under federal alternative
minimum tax provisions and state excise tax liabilities.
 
 Fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 compared to fiscal year ended June 30, 1995.
 
  Revenue. Revenue increased by $2,191,000, or 14%, to $17,833,000 in 1996
from $15,642,000 in 1995. This increase was primarily due to increased unit
sales in Intirion's academic living and government living market segments as
well as expansion in the number of units placed in Intirion's rental program
in the academic living market.
 
  Cost of Product Sales. Cost of product sales increased by $951,000, or 10%,
to $10,247,000 in 1996 from $9,296,000 in 1995. The increase was attributable
to increased product sales.
 
  Cost of Rental Revenue. Cost of rental revenue consists primarily of
depreciation of rental assets over an estimated useful life of seven years.
Cost of rental revenue increased by $276,000, or 50%, to $832,000 in 1996 from
$556,000 in 1995. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in
units placed in the rental program.
 
  Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $964,000, or 17%, to $6,754,000 in 1996
from $5,790,000 in 1995. Gross profit as a percent of revenue increased by 1%
to 38% in 1996 from 37% in 1995. The increase was primarily attributable to
product mix.
 
  Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $433,000, or 8%, to $6,168,000 in 1996
from $5,735,000 in 1995. This increase was primarily attributable to an
increase in commissions and bonuses due to increased revenue and operating
profit coupled with costs associated with a marketing study and related costs
associated with a change in the corporation's name from MicroFridge, Inc. to
Intirion Corporation.
 
  Restructuring Expenses. Restructuring expenses in 1995 of $276,000 were the
result of terminating 13 employees and other costs associated with a
restructuring of Intirion's sales force. There were no such restructuring
actions in 1996.
 
                                      89
<PAGE>
 
  Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $245,000, or 160%, to $398,000
in 1996 from $153,000 in 1995. This increase was primarily attributable to the
increased borrowings incurred to finance the purchase of units for Intirion's
rental business and an increase in inventory levels to meet projected
increases in product demand. There were no significant changes in interest
rates charged on Intirion's borrowings in 1996 as compared with 1995.
 
  Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense increased $23,000, or 88%, to $49,000
in 1996 from $26,000 in 1995. Intirion has been in a tax loss position and the
tax expense is primarily related to taxes due under federal alternative
minimum tax provisions and state excise tax liabilities.
 
SEASONALITY
 
  Intirion experiences moderate seasonality as a result of its significant
operations in the college and university market. Revenues derived from this
market represent approximately forty-five percent (45%) of Intirion's total
revenue. The revenues are derived substantially during the academic school
year which includes the period September through June. Conversely, Intirion
has greater costs when colleges and universities are not in session due to
pick-up, cleaning and storage costs associated with its rental assets.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
  Intirion's primary sources of cash over the past several years have been
operating activities and bank and vendor borrowings. Intirion's primary uses
of cash have been for capital equipment related to expansion of its rental
program. Intirion anticipates that it will continue to use cash flows from its
operating activities to finance working capital needs, including interest
payments on its outstanding indebtedness, as well as capital expenditures for
expansion of its rental business.
 
  Cash flows from operations were $187,000, $2,275,000 and $157,000 for the
fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Cash flows from
operations consist primarily of net income, adjusted for non-cash expenses
coupled with changes in working capital assets and liabilities, specifically
accounts receivable and payable and inventories.
 
  Cash used in investing activities was primarily for the purchase of rental
assets and totaled $2,903,000, $2,375,000 and $4,057,000 for the fiscal years
ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
 
  Net cash flows (sources) from financing activities, consisting primarily of
bank and vendor borrowings net of repayments of subordinated notes payable and
dividends on the Intirion Series A Preferred Stock, were $2,716,000, $84,000
and $2,960,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
 
  Intirion maintains a secured demand credit line with a bank which is capped
at $7,500,000. Borrowings under the credit facility totaled $2,525,000 at June
30, 1997 and $4,742,000 at December 31, 1997. Intirion believes that the
credit line and cash flows generated by operations will be sufficient to fund
Intirion's short-term working capital needs. Intirion believes that over the
longer term additional financing will be required to continue to grow its
rental business. To the extent that additional financing cannot be obtained on
terms acceptable to Intirion, Intirion would likely reduce the rate of growth
of its rental business.
 
INFLATION
 
  Intirion does not believe that its financial performance has been materially
affected by inflation.

as a summary of other material differences between the rights of holders of
Intirion Voting Stock and the rights of holders of Mac-Gray Common Stock. This
summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by

CHARTER AMENDMENTS
 
  General Law. To authorize an amendment to the corporate charter, the DGCL
generally requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon. The DGCL provides for any class
or series of stock to vote as a class for the proposed amendment if the
amendment would increase or decrease the number of authorized shares or change
the number or par value of the aggregate authorized shares of a class or
series, unless the charter provides otherwise. The DGCL also provides for
class voting if the amendment would alter or modify the powers, preferences or
special rights of the shares of such class to affect such class adversely.
 
  Intirion. The Intirion Charter provides that it may be amended in the manner
prescribed by the DGCL.
 
  Mac-Gray. The Mac-Gray Charter provides that its provisions may be amended
or repealed, after approval by the Mac-Gray Board, by the affirmative vote of
a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon and the
affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of each class
entitled to vote thereon as a class; provided, however, that the amendment or
repeal of any provision contained in Articles V, VI, VII or IX of the Mac-Gray
Charter, which relate respectively to stockholder action, directors,
limitation of liability and amendment of the Mac-Gray Charter requires the
affirmative vote of four-fifths of the outstanding shares entitled to vote
thereon and the affirmative vote of four-fifths of the outstanding shares of
each class entitled to vote thereon as a class.
 
BY-LAW AMENDMENTS
 
  General Law. The DGCL provides that the by-laws of a corporation may be
amended by the vote of a majority of the board of directors, if so provided in
the charter or in the by-laws. The board of directors' authority to adopt,
amend or repeal the by-laws of a corporation does not divest or limit the
power of stockholders to adopt, amend or repeal by-laws. Any amendment by the
board of directors to the by-laws may be subsequently changed by the
affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote
thereon.
 
  Intirion. Either the Intirion Board or Intirion's stockholders may amend the
Intirion By-laws.
 
                                      91
<PAGE>
 
  Mac-Gray. The Mac-Gray Charter provides that the Mac-Gray By-Laws may be
amended or repealed by the Mac-Gray Board by the affirmative vote of a
majority of the directors then in office. The Mac-Gray By- Laws may also be
amended or repealed by the stockholders at any annual meeting of stockholders,
or special meeting of stockholders called for that purpose, by the affirmative
vote of three-fourths of the shares represented in person or by proxy and
entitled to vote thereon; provided, however, that if the Mac-Gray Board
recommends approval of such repeal or amendment, the affirmative vote of only
a majority of the shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to
vote thereon is required.
 
VOTING RIGHTS
 
  Intirion. Except as otherwise required by law or the Intirion Charter, each
holder of Intirion Common Stock has one vote in respect to each share of stock
held by him of record for the election of directors and on all matters
submitted to a vote of stockholders.
 
  Each holder of outstanding shares of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock is
entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of
Intirion Common Stock into which the shares of Intirion Series A Preferred
Stock held by such holder are convertible with respect to any and all matters
presented to the stockholders of Intirion for their action or consideration.
The holders of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock vote together as a single
class together with the holders of the Intirion Common Stock and any other
series of Intirion preferred stock, except with respect to (i) provisions
establishing other series of preferred stock; (ii) the election of directors;
and (iii) provisions which alter, amend or repeal the preferences, rights or
special powers of the Intirion Series A Preferred Stock.
 
  Prior to the exercise of any warrant held by the holders of the Intirion
Senior Preferred Stock, each share of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock entitles
the holder thereof to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the
stockholders of Intirion, voting together as a single class with the holders
of Intirion Common Stock and Intirion Series A Preferred Stock. Each holder of
Intirion Senior Preferred Stock is entitled to vote, with respect to each
share of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock held by such holder, a number of
votes equal to the result obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate number of
votes which could be cast in such vote by a holder of the number of shares of
Intirion Common Stock for which the warrant is exercisable on the record date
for such vote by (y) the number of outstanding shares of Intirion Senior
Preferred Stock on the record date for such vote. In addition, the affirmative
vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of
Intirion Senior Preferred Stock, voting separately as a single class, at a
special or annual meeting of stockholders called for the purpose, is necessary
to authorize certain extraordinary matters, including approval of the Merger
Agreement.
 
  Mac-Gray. Subject to the voting rights of holders of Preferred Stock, of
which there is currently none designated, issued or outstanding, holders of
Mac-Gray Common Stock have the exclusive right to vote for the election of
directors and on all matters requiring stockholder action. Shareholders have
one vote for each share of stock entitled to vote owned by them of record and
may vote such shares either in person or by written proxy.
 
CONVERSION RIGHTS
 
  Intirion. Each share of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock is currently
convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, and without the payment of
additional consideration by the holder thereof, at any time and from time to
time, into six shares of Intirion Common Stock. In case of any consolidation
or merger of Intirion with or into another corporation or the sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of Intirion to another corporation, each share
of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible into the
kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which a
holder of the number of shares of Intirion Common Stock deliverable upon
conversion of such Intirion Series A Preferred Stock would have been entitled
upon such consolidation, merger or sale.
 
  Mac-Gray. Other than outstanding stock options granted pursuant to the 1997
Stock Plan, Mac-Gray has no issued or outstanding securities which are
convertible into shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock or any other security. In
addition, there are no conversion rights or redemption or sinking fund
provisions with respect to the Mac-Gray Common Stock.

SPECIAL MEETINGS
 
  General Law. Under the DGCL, a special meeting of stockholders may be called
by the board of directors or such other persons as are authorized by the
certificate of incorporation or the by-laws.
 
  Intirion. The Intirion By-laws provide that a special meeting of the
stockholders may be called by the Intirion Board or the President and shall be
called by the President or Secretary at the request in writing of a majority
of the Intirion Board, or at the request in writing of stockholders owning a
majority in voting power of the entire capital stock of Intirion issued and
outstanding and entitled to vote.
 
  Mac-Gray. Special meetings of the stockholders of Mac-Gray may be called
only by the Mac-Gray Board pursuant to a resolution approved by the
affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office. Only those
matters set forth in the notice of the special meeting may be considered or
acted upon at a special meeting. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a
special meeting is entitled to receive notice of such special meeting not less
than 10 days nor more than 60 days before such meeting.
 
CORPORATE ACTION WITHOUT A MEETING
 
  General Law. The DGCL permits corporate action without a stockholders'
meeting, without prior notice and without a vote of stockholders upon receipt
of the written consent of that number of shares that would be necessary to
authorize the proposed corporate action at a meeting at which all shares
entitled to vote thereon were present and voting, unless the charter expressly
provides otherwise. Prompt notice of the taking of action without a meeting by
less than a unanimous written consent must be given to all stockholders who
have not consented in writing.
 
  Intirion. The Intirion Charter makes no change to the DGCL provisions.
 
  Mac-Gray. The Mac-Gray Charter provides that any action of stockholders must
be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and may
not be taken or effected by a written consent of stockholders in lieu thereof.
 
DIVIDENDS
 
  General Law. Under the DGCL, the directors of a corporation are generally
permitted to declare and pay dividends out of surplus or out of net profits
for the current and/or preceding fiscal year, provided that such dividends
will not reduce capital below the amount of capital represented by all classes
of issued and outstanding stock having a preference upon the distribution of
assets. Also under the DGCL, a corporation may generally redeem or purchase
shares of its stock if such redemption or purchase will not impair the capital
of the corporation.
 
  Intirion. The Intirion Senior Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Intirion
Common Stock, the Intirion Series A Preferred Stock and any other class or
series of capital stock of Intirion with respect to the payment of dividends.
The holders of shares of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock are entitled to
receive cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate per share equal to 6%. So
long as any shares of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock are outstanding,
Intirion may not declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on
any shares of junior stock except that, so long as certain events have not
occurred, Intirion may declare and pay dividends on the Intirion Series A
Preferred Stock in cash in an amount not to exceed $36,000 annually in the
aggregate.
 
                                      93
<PAGE>
 
  The holders of shares of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to
receive cumulative dividends at the rate of $0.90 per share per annum, payable
quarterly. For so long as any shares of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock are
outstanding, Intirion may not declare or pay any distributions on shares of
Intirion Common Stock until the holders of the Intirion Series A Preferred
Stock then outstanding shall have first received any accrued but unpaid
dividends from any prior year.
 
  Intirion has never paid cash dividends on Intirion Common Stock. Subject to
the preferential rights of the Intirion Senior Preferred Stock and the
Intirion Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Intirion Common
Stock are entitled to receive, when and if declared by the Intirion Board,
dividends payable either in cash, in property or in shares of capital stock.
 
  Mac-Gray. The Mac-Gray Board or any authorized committee thereof may declare
dividends, to be paid or set apart for payment upon the Mac-Gray Common Stock,
out of any assets or funds of Mac-Gray legally available for the payment
therefor. The possible issuance of Preferred Stock with a preference over Mac-
Gray Common Stock as to dividends could impact the dividend rights of holders
of Mac-Gray Common Stock. The Credit Facility also restricts dividend payments
in certain limited circumstances.
 
LIQUIDATION
 
  General Law. Pursuant to the DGCL, upon the winding up, dissolution or
liquidation of a corporation, the stockholders of such corporation are
entitled to share in any of the assets distributable to the holders of the
respective corporation's stock upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding
up in accordance with their respective rights and interests.
 
  Intirion. The Intirion Senior Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Intirion
Series A Preferred Stock and the Intirion Common Stock. No distribution may be
made upon liquidation to the holders of any shares of Intirion Series A
Preferred Stock or Intirion Common Stock, unless the holders of the Intirion
Senior Preferred Stock have first received $40.00 per share plus all accrued
and unpaid dividends.
 
  In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of Intirion, the holders of shares of Intirion Series A Preferred
Stock then outstanding are entitled to be paid before any payment is made to
the holders of Intirion Common Stock an amount equal to the greater of (i)
$15.00 per share, plus any dividends accrued or declared but unpaid thereon or
(ii) such amount per share as would have been payable had each such share been
converted to Intirion Common Stock immediately prior to such liquidation,
dissolution or winding up. The merger or consolidation of Intirion into or
with another corporation (except a merger or consolidation involving only a
change in the state of incorporation of Intirion, a merger of Intirion with or
into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intirion that is incorporated in the United
States, or a merger for which stockholder approval is not required by
applicable law), or the sale of all or substantially all the assets of
Intirion, shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
Intirion if the holders of at least two-thirds of the then outstanding shares
of Intirion Series A Preferred Stock so elect by giving written notice thereof
to Intirion at least fifteen days before the stockholder vote on such event.
 
  After the payment of all preferential amounts required to be paid to the
holders of Intirion Senior Preferred Stock and Intirion Series A Preferred
Stock, upon the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of Intirion, the
holders of shares of Intirion Common Stock then outstanding are entitled to
receive the remaining assets and funds of Intirion available for distribution
to its stockholders.
 
  Mac-Gray. Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of Mac-Gray, the net assets of Mac-Gray will be distributed pro
rata to the holders of Mac-Gray Common Stock in accordance with their
respective rights and interests. The possible issuance of Preferred Stock with
a preference over Mac-Gray Common Stock as to liquidation could impact such
rights of holders of Mac-Gray Common Stock.

PROVISIONS RELATING TO DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
  General Law. Under the DGCL, a corporation must have a board of directors
consisting of at least one director. Under the DGCL, a corporation's charter
may (i) confer upon holders of any class or series of stock the right to elect
one or more directors to serve for such term and to have such voting powers as
may be specified therein, (ii) permit classification of the board of
directors, and (iii) permit cumulative voting for the election of directors.
 
  Intirion. The Intirion Charter confers upon the holders of the Intirion
Senior Preferred Stock the right to elect one director, except in the event of
certain defaults, in which case such holders have the right to elect two
directors. The Intirion Charter also confers upon the holders of the Intirion
Series A Preferred Stock the right to elect one director. The Intirion Charter
does not permit classification of the Intirion Board or cumulative voting for
the election of directors. The Intirion Board may fill any vacancies in the
Intirion Board, except that any vacancy created by the resignation, death or
removal of a director designated by the holders of the Intirion Senior
Preferred Stock or the holders of the Intirion Series A Preferred Stock shall
be filled by the vote of a majority of the class that designated the
predecessor director.
 
  Mac-Gray. The number of directors of Mac-Gray may be fixed by resolution
duly adopted from time to time by the Mac-Gray Board. Currently, the number of
directors is fixed at six. The directors are classified into three classes of
equal size with terms expiring respectively at the annual meetings of
stockholders to be held in 1998, 1999 and 2000. At each annual meeting of
stockholders, the successors of the class of directors whose term expires at
that meeting shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at such meeting
and shall hold office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of
stockholders held in the third year following the year of their election.
Presently, there is no cumulative voting for the election of directors.
Vacancies in the Mac-Gray Board, however occurring, shall be filled solely by
the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office.
The existence of a staggered board may have the effect of delaying or
deferring a change of control of Mac-Gray or removal of incumbent management.
 
STOCKHOLDER NOMINATIONS TO ELECT DIRECTORS
 
  Intirion. There is no provision in the Intirion Charter or the Intirion By-
laws relative to stockholder nominations of directors.
 
  Mac-Gray. Nominations of candidates for election as directors of Mac-Gray at
any annual meeting of stockholders may be made by any holder of record (both
as of the time notice of such nomination is given by the stockholder and as of
the record date for the annual meeting in question) of any shares of the
capital stock of Mac-Gray entitled to vote at such annual meeting who complies
with the timing, informational and other requirements set forth in the Mac-
Gray By-Laws. Any stockholder who has complied with all such requirements and
who seeks to make such a nomination must be present in person at the annual
meeting.
 
  Such nominations shall be made pursuant to timely notice in writing to the
Secretary of Mac-Gray. For the annual meeting to be held in 1998, a
stockholder's notice shall be timely if received by Mac-Gray at its principal
executive office not later than the close of business on the later of the 75th
day prior to the scheduled date of such annual meeting or the 15th day
following the day on which public announcement of the date of such annual
meeting is first made by Mac-Gray. For all subsequent annual meetings, a
stockholder's notice shall be timely if received by Mac-Gray at its principal
executive office not less than 75 days nor more than 120 days prior to the
anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting; provided,
however, that in the event the annual meeting is scheduled to be held on a
date more than 30 days before the anniversary date or more than 60 days after
the anniversary date, a stockholder's notice shall be timely if received by
Mac-Gray at its principal executive office not later than the close of
business on the later of the 75th day prior to the scheduled date of such
annual meeting or the 15th day following the day on which public announcement
of the date of such annual meeting is first made by Mac-Gray.

REMOVAL OF DIRECTORS
 
  General Law. Under the DGCL, any director or the entire board of directors
of a corporation may be removed, with or without cause, by the holders of a
majority of the shares then entitled to elect directors. In the case of a
corporation whose board of directors is classified, stockholders may effect
such removal only for cause unless the charter provides otherwise.
 
  Intirion. Directors of Intirion may be removed for cause by vote of a
majority of the directors then in office. Directors of Intirion may be removed
without cause by vote in the election of directors, provided that the
directors of a class elected by a particular class of stockholders may be
removed only by the vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of the
particular class of stockholders entitled to vote for the election of such
directors.
 
  Mac-Gray. The Mac-Gray Charter provides that, subject to the rights of any
series of Preferred Stock to elect or remove directors, any director may be
removed from office only with cause and only by the affirmative vote of at
least two-thirds of the total votes which would be eligible to be cast by
stockholders in the election of such director.
 
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND OTHERS
 
  General Law. The DGCL generally permits indemnification of directors,
officers, employees and agents for expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement of claims incurred by them by reason of their position with the
corporation, if such persons have acted in good faith and with the reasonable
belief that their conduct was in the best interest of the corporation.
However, the DGCL does not permit a corporation to indemnify persons against
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in actions brought by or in
the right of the corporation. The DGCL permits indemnification of expenses of
such actions, unless the persons have been adjudged to be liable to the
corporation, in which case indemnification is available only if approved by
the Delaware Court of Chancery (the "Court") or the court in which such action
or suit was brought.
 
  Intirion. The Intirion By-laws provide that directors and officers of
Intirion shall be, and in the discretion of the Intirion Board non-officer
employees may be, indemnified by Intirion to the fullest extent authorized by
Delaware law, as it now exists against all expenses and liabilities reasonably
incurred in connection with service for or on behalf of Intirion, and further
permits the advancing of expenses incurred in defense of claims. The Intirion
By-laws also provide that the right of directors and officers to
indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other right now possessed or
hereafter acquired under any by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or
otherwise. The Intirion Charter contains a provision permitted by Delaware law
that generally eliminates the personal liability of directors for monetary
damages for breaches of their fiduciary duty, including breaches involving
negligence or gross negligence in business combinations, unless the director
has breached his or her duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged
in intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, paid a dividend or
approved a stock repurchase in violation of the DGCL or obtained an improper
personal benefit. This provision does not alter a director's liability under
the federal securities laws. In addition, this provision does not affect the
availability of equitable remedies, such as an injunction or rescission, for
breach of fiduciary duty.
 
  Mac-Gray. The Mac-Gray By-laws provide that directors and officers of Mac-
Gray shall be, and in the discretion of the Mac-Gray Board non-officer
employees may be, indemnified by Mac-Gray to the fullest extent authorized by
Delaware law, as it now exists or may in the future be amended, against all
expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred in connection with service for or
on behalf of Mac-Gray, and further permits the advancing of expenses incurred
in defense of claims. The Mac-Gray By-laws also provide that the right of
directors and officers to indemnification shall be a contractual right and
shall not be exclusive of any other right now possessed or hereafter acquired
under any by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or otherwise. The Mac-Gray
Charter contains a provision permitted by Delaware law that generally
eliminates the personal liability of directors for monetary damages for
breaches of their fiduciary duty, including breaches involving negligence or
gross negligence in business combinations, unless the director has breached
his or her duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, paid a dividend or
approved a stock
 
                                      96
<PAGE>
 
repurchase in violation of the DGCL or obtained an improper personal benefit.
This provision does not alter a director's liability under the federal
securities laws. In addition, this provision does not affect the availability
of equitable remedies, such as an injunction or rescission, for breach of
fiduciary duty.
 
                       RIGHTS OF DISSENTING STOCKHOLDERS
 
  Pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, record holders of shares of Intirion
Voting Stock on the Record Date are entitled to assert dissenters' rights in
connection with the Merger and obtain payment of the "fair value" of their
shares, provided that such stockholders comply with the requirements of
Section 262. The Intirion Principal Stockholders, by entering into the Voting
Agreements, have effectively forfeited their appraisal rights with respect to
their shares of Intirion Voting Stock.
 
  SECTION 262 IS REPRINTED IN ITS ENTIRETY AS APPENDIX B TO THIS
PROSPECTUS/PROXY STATEMENT. THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS NOT A COMPLETE
STATEMENT OF THE LAW RELATING TO APPRAISAL RIGHTS AND IS QUALIFIED IN ITS
ENTIRETY BY REFERENCE TO APPENDIX B. SECTION 262 SHOULD BE REVIEWED CAREFULLY
BY STOCKHOLDERS WHO WISH TO ASSERT THEIR DISSENTER' RIGHTS OR WHO WISH TO
PRESERVE THE RIGHT TO DO SO, SINCE FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THOSE PROCEDURES MAY
RESULT IN THE LOSS OF SUCH DISSENTERS' RIGHTS.
 
  A holder of Intirion Voting Stock who elects to exercise dissenters' rights
must satisfy each of the following conditions: (i) such holder must deliver to
Intirion, before the taking of the vote with respect to the Merger Agreement,
written notice of his or her intention to demand payment of the fair value of
his or her shares (this written notice must be in addition to and separate
from any proxy or vote against the Merger Agreement; neither voting against
adoption nor a failure to vote for the Merger Agreement will constitute such a
notice); and (ii) such holders must not vote in favor of adoption of the
Merger Agreement (a failure to vote will satisfy this requirement, but a vote
in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement, by proxy or in person, will
constitute a waiver of such holder's dissenters' rights and will nullify any
previously filed written notice of intent to demand payment). A stockholder
who fails to comply with either of these conditions will have no dissenters'
rights with respect to his or her shares.
 
  A stockholder who elects to exercise appraisal rights, if available, should
mail or deliver his or her written notice to: Intirion Corporation, Ten
Walpole Park South, Walpole, Massachusetts 02081 Attention: Secretary. Such
notice must be executed by, or with the consent of, the holder of record. The
notice must identify the stockholder and indicate the intention of such
stockholder to demand payment of the fair value of his or her shares. In the
notice, the stockholder's name should be stated as it appears on his or her
stock certificate(s). If the shares are owned of record in a fiduciary
capacity, such as by a trustee, guardian or custodian, such demand must be
executed by or for the fiduciary. If the shares are owned of record by or for
more than one person, as in a joint tenancy or tenancy in common, such demand
must be executed by or for all joint owners. An authorized agent, including an
agent for two or more joint owners, may execute the demand for appraisal for a
stockholder of record; however, the agent must identify the record owner(s)
and expressly disclose the fact that, in exercising the demand, he is acting
as agent for the record owners.
 
  A record owner, such as a broker, who holds shares as a nominee for others
may exercise his or her right of appraisal with respect to the shares for all
or less than all beneficial owners of shares as to which he or she is the
record owner. In such case, the written demand must set forth the number of
shares covered by such demand. Where the number of shares is not expressly
mentioned, the demand will be presumed to cover all shares outstanding in the
name of such record owner.
 
  After the stockholder vote adopting the Merger Agreement, and assuming the
Merger is consummated, the Surviving Corporation must give written notice
within ten days after the Closing Date that the Merger Agreement has been
adopted to each stockholder who filed a written notice of intent to demand
payment for such
 
                                      97
<PAGE>
 
stockholder's shares and who did not vote in favor of adoption of the Merger
Agreement (a "Dissenting Stockholder"). Within 120 days after the Closing
Date, the Surviving Corporation or any Dissenting Stockholder may file a
petition in the Delaware Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the
value of the stock of all Dissenting Stockholders. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, at any time within 60 days after the Closing Date, any Dissenting
Stockholder has the right to withdraw his or her demand for appraisal and to
accept the Merger Consideration to which he or she otherwise would have been
entitled. In addition, within 120 days after the Closing Date, any Dissenting
Stockholder will, upon written request, be entitled to receive from the
Surviving Corporation a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares
not voted in favor of adopting the Merger Agreement and with respect to which
demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders
of such shares.
 
  At the hearing on such petition, the Court will determine the stockholders
who have perfected their dissenters' rights. The Court may require Dissenting
Stockholders to submit their stock certificates to the Register in Chancery
for notation thereon of the pending of appraisal proceedings; the failure of a
Dissenting Stockholder to comply with such direction may result in the Court
dismissing the proceedings as to such stockholder.
 
  After determining the stockholders entitled to an appraisal, the Court will
appraise the shares, determining the fair value arising from the consummation
of the Merger, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon
the amount determined to be fair value. In determining such fair value, the
Court may take into account all relevant factors. The Delaware Supreme Court
has stated that "proof of value by any techniques or methods which are
generally considered acceptable in the financial community and otherwise
admissible in court" should be considered in the appraisal proceedings. The
Court will then direct the payment of the fair value of the shares, together
with any interest, to the Dissenting Stockholders upon the surrender of the
certificates representing the dissenting shares.
 
  Stockholders considering seeking appraisal for their shares should note that
the fair value of their shares determined under Section 262 could be more, the
same or less than the consideration they would receive pursuant to the Merger
Agreement if they did not seek appraisal of their shares. The costs of the
appraisal proceeding may be determined by the Court and allocated among the
parties as the Court deems equitable under the circumstances. Upon application
of a stockholder, the Court may order all or a portion of the expenses
incurred by any stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and the fees and
expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all shares
entitled to appraisal. In the absence of such a determination or assessment,
each stockholder bears his or her own expenses.
 
                             RESALES OF SECURITIES
 
  The Mac-Gray Common Stock to be issued to the holders of Intirion
Exchangeable Securities under this Prospectus/Proxy Statement will be freely
transferable under the Securities Act, except for shares of Mac-Gray Common
Stock issued to persons who may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the
meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act and Rule 145(c) thereunder.
Generally, these are persons, who are deemed to control, be controlled by, or
under common control with Intirion. The shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock issued
(or issuable) in connection with the Merger to persons who constitute
"underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) and Rule 145(c) may not be
publicly reoffered or resold by such persons except pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Mac-
Gray Common Stock or, in certain circumstances, pursuant to Rule 145(d) or any
other applicable exemption under the Securities Act. Because the Intirion
securityholders listed in the table below (the "Selling Securityholders") may
be deemed to be underwriters of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock issued to them
in the Merger, this Prospectus/Proxy Statement will also cover any offers or
sales of such shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock by the Selling Securityholders.

(1) Assumes that the Selling Securityholders sell all the shares of Mac-Gray
    Common Stock issued to them in the Merger and do not acquire additional
    shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock.
(2) As of the Effective Time, Robert P. Bennett will be appointed Senior Vice
    President, Sales of Mac-Gray.
 
  The Selling Securityholders may sell shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock (i)
directly to purchasers as principals or through one or more underwriters,
brokers, dealers or agents from time to time in one or more transactions
(which may involve crosses or block transactions), (ii) on any exchange or in
the over-the-counter market, (iii) in transactions otherwise than in the over-
the-counter market or on an exchange or (iv) through the writing of options
(whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise) on, or
settlement of short sales of, the shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock. Any such
transactions may be effected at market prices prevailing at the time of sale,
at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at varying prices
determined at the time of sale or at negotiated or fixed prices, in each case
as determined by the Selling Securityholders or by agreement between the
Selling Securityholders and underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents or
purchasers. If the Selling Securityholders effect such transactions by selling
shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock to or through underwriters, brokers, dealers
or agents, such underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents may receive
compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the
Selling Securityholders or commissions from purchasers of shares of Mac-Gray
Common Stock for whom they may act as agent (which discounts, concessions or
commissions as to particular underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents may be
in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved). The
Selling Securityholders and any brokers, dealers or agents that participate in
the distribution of the shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock may be deemed to be
underwriters, and any profit on the sale of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock by
them and any discounts, concessions or commissions received by any such
underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents may be deemed to be underwriting
discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.
 
  In the event of a "distribution" of the shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock, the
Selling Securityholders, any selling broker-dealer or agent and any
"affiliated purchasers" may be subject to Regulation M under the Exchange Act,
which would prohibit, with certain exceptions, each such person from bidding
for, purchasing or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any
security which is the subject of such distribution until his participation in
that distribution is completed. In addition, Regulation M under the Exchange
Act prohibits certain "stabilizing bids" or "stabilizing purchases" for the
purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of Mac-Gray Common Stock
in connection with any offer of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock by the Selling
Securityholders.
 
  To the extent not described herein and as otherwise required by law, the
specific amount of shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock being offered or sold, the
names of the Selling Securityholders, the respective purchase prices and
public offering prices, the names of any agent, dealer or underwriter, and any
applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer or sale
will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate,
a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement of which this
Prospectus/Proxy Statement is a part.
 
  Mac-Gray will not receive any of the proceeds of the sale of shares of Mac-
Gray Common Stock by any Selling Securityholder.
 
  Under the securities laws of certain states, the shares of Mac-Gray Common
Stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers
or dealers. In addition, in certain states the shares of Mac-Gray
 
                                      99
<PAGE>
 
Common Stock may not be sold unless the shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock have
been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from
registration or qualification is available and is complied with.
 
  Mac-Gray will pay all of the expenses incident to the registration, offering
and sale of the shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock, other than commissions, fees
and discounts of underwriters, brokers, dealers and agents. Mac-Gray has
agreed to indemnify the Selling Securityholders and any underwriters against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
 
                                 LEGAL MATTERS
 
  The validity of Mac-Gray Common Stock to be issued in connection with the
Merger and certain other legal matters relating to the Merger will be passed
upon by Goodwin, Procter & Hoar LLP.
 
  Certain legal matters relating to the Merger will be passed upon by White &
McDermott, P.C.
 
                         REGULATORY APPROVALS REQUIRED
 
  Under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act and the rules promulgated thereunder by the
FTC, certain information must be furnished to the Antitrust Division and the
FTC and specified waiting periods must expire in acquisition transactions
where: (i) the acquiring person, or the person whose voting securities or
assets are being acquired, is engaged in commerce or in any activity affecting
commerce; (ii) (a) any voting securities or assets of a person engaged in
manufacturing which has annual net sales or total assets of $10,000,000 or
more are being acquired by any person that has total assets or annual net
sales of $100,000,000 or more, or (b) any voting securities or assets of a
person not engaged in manufacturing that has total assets of $10,000,000 or
more are being acquired by any person that has total assets or annual net
sales of $100,000,000 or more, or (c) any voting securities or assets of a
person with annual net sales or total assets of $100,000,000 or more are being
acquired by any person with total assets or annual net sales of $10,000,000 or
more; and (iii) as a result of the acquisition the acquiring person would hold
either (x) 15% or more of the voting securities or assets of the acquired
person, or (y) an aggregate total amount of the voting securities and assets
of the acquired person in excess of $15,000,000. Currently, neither Mac-Gray
nor Intirion is required to make any filings with the FTC or the Antitrust
Division pursuant to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act in connection with the Merger
because Mac-Gray does not satisfy either the asset or the revenue threshold
set forth above. No assurances can be given, however, that Mac-Gray will not
exceed one or both of such thresholds prior to the Closing Date. If Mac-Gray
were to exceed one of the above thresholds prior to the Closing Date, each of
Mac-Gray and Intirion would have to file a premerger notification form (and
any requested supplemental information) with the Antitrust Division and the
FTC with respect to the Merger, which would trigger a 30-day waiting period
that would have to elapse before the Merger could be consummated.
 
  Mac-Gray and Intirion do not believe that any other material governmental
approvals, actions or filings, other than the Certificate of Merger, are or
will be required for the consummation of the Merger.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and
 Stockholders of Mac-Gray Corporation
 
  In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related
consolidated statements of income, of changes in stockholders' equity and of
cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Mac-Gray Corporation (the "Company"), at December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. 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 of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit 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,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
 
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
 
  Basis of Presentation--The historical financial statements include the
combined accounts of Mac-Gray Co., Inc. and Mac-Gray, L.P. On April 17, 1997,
Mac-Gray Co., Inc. and Mac-Gray, L.P. were reorganized to create Mac-Gray
Corporation (the "Parent"). The Parent acquired all of the outstanding common
stock of Mac-Gray Co., Inc. and all of the outstanding limited partnership
interest of Mac-Gray, L.P. in exchange for 6,367,800 shares of the Parent's
common stock. Concurrently, Mac-Gray, L.P. was merged with and into Mac-Gray
Co., Inc. which continued to operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Parent (collectively, the "Company"). The consolidated financial statements
for the current fiscal year include the accounts of Mac-Gray Corporation and
its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated in the consolidation.
 
  Description of the Business--The Company generates the majority of its
revenue from card and coin route laundry rooms located in the Northeastern,
Midwestern and Southeastern United States. The Company's principal customer
base is the multi-housing market, which consists of apartments, condominium
units, colleges and universities. The Company also sells, services and leases
commercial laundry equipment to commercial laundromats and institutions. The
majority of the Company's purchases of coin route laundry equipment is from
one supplier.
 
2. ACQUISITIONS
 
  In 1995, the Company acquired certain assets of Commercial Appliance, Inc.
for $821 and recorded goodwill of approximately $564. During 1996, the Company
acquired certain assets of six coin-operated laundry businesses or divisions
for an aggregate purchase price of $15,561 and recorded goodwill of $10,184.
Non-compete agreements valued at $1,250 were also recorded in 1996 in
connection with these acquisitions. These acquisitions were accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting. Pro forma financial information has
not been provided for these acquisitions due to lack of historical financial
data of the acquired entities.
 
  On April 17, 1997, the Company acquired in exchange for 612,026 shares of
its common stock, (approximate value of $7,797), approximately $2,170 in cash,
$850 of a deferred payment obligation, and assumption of approximately $2,787
in debt, each of Sun Services of America, Inc. and R. Bodden Coin-Op Laundry,
Inc. (collectively, "Sun Services"). The shares of the Company's common stock
are redeemable at the election of the shareholder. The redeemable common stock
has been valued at a contractual put price of $12.74 per common share (which
was in excess of market as of that date). The redemption feature of these
shares expires on October 22, 2000. Sun Services of America, Inc. and R.
Bodden Coin-Op Laundry were 100% owned by the same shareholder. The Parent
acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Sun Services, which was
accounted for pursuant to the purchase method of accounting, and resulted in
goodwill of approximately $11,600.
 
  The following pro forma financial information reflects the Sun Services
Acquisition as if it occurred on January 1, 1996. For the year ended December
31, 1997, the historical results of Sun Services for the period from April 1,
1997 through April 16, 1997 have not been included and are not material to the

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
                (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
 
  In October and November, 1997, the Company acquired certain assets of two
additional coin-operated laundry businesses for approximately $7,150. These
acquisitions were also accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
Accordingly, the purchase price assigned to the assets acquired was the fair
market value on the respective acquisition dates. Purchase price in excess of
the fair value of assets acquired was allocated to goodwill and amounted to
approximately $6,228. Pro forma financial information for the October and
November 1997 acquisitions has not been presented due to their insignificance
in relation to the Company as a whole. The Company's consolidated financial
statements include the results of the 1995, 1996, and 1997 acquisitions from
their respective acquisition dates.
 
3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING OF COMMON STOCK
 
  Mac-Gray Corporation completed its initial public offering of 4,600,000
shares of common stock at $11 per share on October 22, 1997. The net proceeds
from the sale of the common stock of $45,174 were used primarily to repay
existing indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facility (Note 9) and to
fund a distribution of $9,000 of previously taxed but undistributed earnings
to the Company's shareholders of record as of October 16, 1997. As a result of
the initial public offering, the Company's S corporation status was
terminated. Retained earnings of $5,907 as of that date were reclassified to
additional paid-in capital to reflect additional contributions of capital by
the S-corporation shareholders.
 
4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
  Cash, Cash Equivalents and Available-For-Sale Security--The Company
considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
  The Company invests excess cash in repurchase agreements and other highly
liquid short term investments. Accordingly, the investments are subject to
minimal credit and market risk. All of the Company's investments are
classified as available-for-sale. As such, unrealized gains and losses are
excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholders'
equity, net of tax.
 
  Revenue Recognition--The Company recognizes coin route laundry revenue on
the accrual basis. Sales revenue from the Company's commercial sale of
equipment and parts is recognized upon shipment of the orders.
 
  Allowance for Doubtful Accounts--The Company maintains an allowance for
doubtful accounts of $330 at December 31, 1996 and $490 at December 31, 1997.
 
  Concentration of Credit Risk--Financial instruments which potentially expose
the Company to concentration of credit risk include trade receivables,
generated by the Company as a result of the selling and leasing of laundry
machines. To minimize this risk, ongoing credit evaluations of customers'
financial condition are performed and reserves are maintained. The Company
typically does not require collateral.
 
  Fair Value of Financial Instruments--For purposes of financial reporting,
the Company has determined that the fair value of financial instruments
approximates book value at December 31, 1996 and 1997, based upon terms
currently available to the Company in financial markets.
 
  Inventories--Inventories consist of laundry machines and parts purchased for
commercial sale. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (as determined
using the first-in, first-out method) or market.
 
  Property, Plant and Equipment--Property, plant and equipment are stated at
cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the respective assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are
charged to operations as incurred; acquisitions, major renewals, and
betterments are capitalized.
 
  Coin route equipment-not yet placed in service--These assets represent
laundry machines that management estimates will be installed in coin route
laundry rooms and have not been purchased for commercial sale.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
                (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
 
 
  Intangible Assets--Intangible assets primarily consist of various non-
compete agreements and goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisitions
(Note 2). The non-compete agreements are amortized using the straight-line
method over the life of the agreements, which ranges from two to five years.
Goodwill is amortized using the straight-line method over fifteen or twenty
years from the acquired companies respective dates of acquisitions.
 
  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets--Impairment losses are recorded on long-
lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and
the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less
than the assets' carrying amount.
 
  Income Taxes--Mac-Gray Co., Inc. which elected S corporation status, and
Mac-Gray, L.P. were "pass through" entities for income tax purposes prior to
the reorganization on April 17, 1997. From April 17, 1997 through October 16,
1997, Mac-Gray Corporation also elected S corporation status. Accordingly,
earnings and losses were included on the income tax returns of the respective
equity owners through October 16, 1997. On October 16, 1997, the Company's S
corporation status was terminated as a result of the initial public offering.
 
  The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability
method as prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS 109). Under the provisions of SFAS 109,
the current or deferred tax consequences of a transaction are measured by
applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to determined the amount of taxes
payable currently or in future years. The classification of net current and
non-current deferred tax assets or liabilities depend upon the nature of the
related asset or liability. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary
differences between the income tax basis of assets and liabilities and their
carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
 
  Stock Compensation--The Company's stock option plans are accounted for in
accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees". In fiscal 1996, the Company adopted the disclosure
requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation".
 
  Use of Estimates--The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
   
  Earnings Per Share--The Company accounts for earnings per share in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 128, "Earnings
Per Share" (SFAS 128). SFAS 128 replaces APB Opinion No. 15 "Earnings Per
Share" and requires the presentation of basic earnings per share and diluted
earnings per share (EPS). Basic EPS includes no dilution and is computed by
dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of
securities that could share in the earnings of an entity, similar to fully
diluted EPS under APB 15. Diluted earnings per share has been calculated using
the treasury stock method and prior period earnings per share have been
restated in accordance with SFAS 128. Net income per share gives effect to the
exchange of shares between the Parent and the Company (Note 1).     
 
  New Accounting Pronouncements--The Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income" (SFAS 130) and No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of
an Enterprise and Related Information" (SFAS 131). In accordance with these

statements, the Company plans to implement SFAS 130 which requires
presentation of certain information related to comprehensive income and SFAS
131 which requires that certain additional information related to operating
segments be reported during fiscal year 1998. The Company is currently
reviewing the impact of these statements on its financial statements.

 Credit Agreement and Revolving Credit Facility
 
  On April 17, 1997, the outstanding debt under the 1996 Credit Agreement and
Revolving Credit Facility was refinanced under terms of an amended and
restated agreement (the Senior Secured Credit Facility). The

Senior Secured Credit Facility provides for borrowings under (i) a revolving
line of credit and term loan facility and (ii) a revolving working capital
line of credit facility of up to $45,000 and $5,000, respectively. Outstanding
indebtedness under the Senior Secured Credit Facility bears interest at the
Company's option, at a rate equal to the prime rate plus .5% or LIBOR plus
2.5% with the margin over the prime rate and LIBOR decreasing after October
22, 1997 due to the initial public offering of the Company's common stock
(Note 3) to the prime rate less .5% or LIBOR plus 2.0%. The Senior Secured
Credit Facility restricts payments of dividends and other distributions,
restricts the Company from making certain acquisitions and incurring
indebtedness, and requires it to maintain certain financial ratios. The Senior
Secured Credit Facility is secured by pledges of assets of the Parent and its
subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facility provides for the issuance of
standby letters of credit of up to $15,000 in the aggregate. At December 31,
1997, outstanding letters of credit amounted to $1,302. There is no
outstanding balance on the Senior Secured Credit Facility at December 31,
1997. The interest rate for the Senior Secured Credit Facility at December 31,
1997 was 8.0%.
 
  In connection with the financing of the 1996 Acquisitions (Note 2), the
Company entered into a Credit Agreement with a bank which provided for
borrowings under a Revolving Line of Credit, Working Capital Line of Credit
and Acquisition Line of Credit of up to $14,000, $1,500 and $4,000,
respectively. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement were restricted to
providing working capital requirements of the Company and funding future
acquisitions.
 
  During June 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with a bank which
provided a Revolving Credit Facility with aggregate borrowings of up to
$4,500. As of December 31, 1996, $2,893 was available to be borrowed under the
Revolving Credit Facility. A portion of the proceeds from the Credit Agreement
and the Revolving Credit Facility were used to pay the balance of the Bank
Note and Line of Credit outstanding prior to the refinancing of the Company.
 
  The Credit Agreement and the Revolving Credit Facility provided for the
issuance of standby letters of credit up to $2,200 in the aggregate. At
December 31, 1996, outstanding letters of credit amounted to $1,526.
 
  Borrowings under the 1996 Credit Agreement and the Revolving Credit Facility
bore interest, at the Company's option, at either (1) the banks' prime
interest rate (the "Prime Rate") or (2) 2.5% plus the rate at which certain
Eurodollar deposits were offered in the interbank Eurodollar market (the
"LIBOR Rate") or (3) 2.5% plus the rate at which funds were offered in the
secondary markets (the "Cost of Funds Rate").
 
 Future Payments

  Prior to October 16, 1997, the historical income tax provision was
established only to provide for income taxes in states that do not recognize
Subchapter S corporations, using a statutory income tax rate of 6%. The
effective rate differed from the statutory rate in 1996 and 1997 (prior to
October 16, 1997) due to meals and entertainment expenses and goodwill
amortization recorded for book purposes that are not deductible for income tax
purposes. In addition to the aforementioned items, the Company's 1996
effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate due to taxable losses
generated by Mac-Gray, L.P. for which only a 10% tax benefit (equivalent to
Mac-Gray Co., Inc.'s general partnership interest in Mac-Gray, L.P.) was
recognized by the Company.
 
  The provision for state and federal income taxes consists of the following:

  Guarantee of Indebtedness--At December 31, 1997, Mac-Gray Co., Inc. is a
guarantor on a line-of-credit for a customer in the amount of $706. The
customer has incurred substantial losses. While the guarantee is secured by a
pledge of the borrowing company's assets, it is uncertain if those assets and
profits from continuing operations will be adequate to retire the line-of-
credit. The Company has recorded a reserve of $250 at December 31, 1997 for
estimated losses on this guarantee. In management's opinion, the range of the
estimated loss to be incurred in connection with the Company's guarantee of
the customer's line-of-credit in excess of the amount recorded at December 31,
1997 will not have a material adverse impact on the results of operations or
the financial position of the Company.
 
  Litigation--The Company is involved in various litigation proceedings
arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the
Company's ultimate liability, if any, under pending litigation would not
materially affect its financial condition or the results of its operations.

  Retirement Plans--The Company maintains a qualified profit-sharing/401(k)
plan (the Plan) covering substantially all employees. The Company's
contributions to the Plan are at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
Costs under the Plan amounted to $535, $532 and $285 for the years ended
December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.
 
  1997 Stock Option and Incentive Plans--In December, 1996, the Board of
Directors of Mac-Gray Co. adopted, and the stockholders approved, the Mac-Gray
Co., Inc. 1996 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the Predecessor Plan). On
April 7, 1997, the Board of Directors adopted and the Company's stockholders
approved the 1997 Stock Option and Incentive Plan for the Company (the 1997
Stock Plan). The 1997 Stock Plan is designed and intended as a performance
incentive for officers, employees, consultants and directors to promote the
financial success and progress of the Company. All officers, employees and
independent directors are eligible to participate in the 1997 Stock Plan.
Awards, when made, may be in the form of stock options, restricted stock,
unrestricted stock options, and dividend equivalent rights.
 
  On December 30, 1996, Mac-Gray Co. granted 556,350 options to purchase
shares of common stock with an exercise price of $9.99 per share pursuant to
the Predecessor Plan. Concurrent with the reorganization of the Company, the
options issued pursuant to the Predecessory Plan were assumed by the Company
under the 1997 Stock Plan, and the Predecessory Plan was terminated. The
options assumed by the Company under the 1997 Plan were reflective of the
exchange of common stock between the Parent and Mac-Gray Co., Inc. The
exercise price of the options was adjusted to $8.80 in August 1997, in order
to restore the economic position of the option holders as a result of the
$9,000 distribution (Note 3). The change in the exercise price of these
options has been

reflected as a cancellation of the $9.99 options and a grant of the $8.80
options on the following option rollforward. Employee options vest so that
twenty percent (20%) of the options will become exercisable on each of the
first through fifth anniversaries of the date of grant of the options. In the
event of termination of the optionees' relationship with the Company, options
not yet exercised terminate within 90 days. The 1997 Stock Plan also provided
for the automatic grant to each of the four independent directors to purchase
1,000 shares of common stock. The non-qualified options granted to independent
directors were exercisable immediately and will terminate on the tenth
anniversary of the grant. The exercise prices were determined by the Board of
Directors to be the fair market value of the shares underlying the options on
the respective dates of the grants. Other than the stock option grants, there
were no other grants of equity-based compensation awards during 1996 and 1997.
 
  The 1997 Stock Plan provides for the issuance of up to the greater of
750,000 shares of common stock or ten percent of the then outstanding shares
of common stock. Subsequent to the initial public offering (Note 3), a total
of 1,157,982 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under the 1997
Stock Plan, of which 638,590 shares are subject to outstanding options and
519,392 remain available for issuance.
 
  The following is a summary of stock option plan activity.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
                (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
 
 
  The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation." The Company continues to measure compensation cost using the
intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by APB Opinion 25. If
the Company had elected to recognize compensation cost based on the fair value
of the options granted at grant date as prescribed by SFAS No. 123, net income
and pro forma net income per share would have been reduced to $2,314 in 1997,
or $0.32 per share compared to reported net income of $2,686, or $0.37 per
share and $0.36 per share-assuming dilution.

  In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123, a volatility assumption was
not used to calculate the fair value of options granted prior to the Company's
initial public offering.
 
  Because the determination of the fair value of all options granted includes
vesting periods over several years and additional option grants are expected
to be made each year, the above pro forma disclosures are not representative
of pro forma effects of reported net income for future periods.

15. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA TAX ADJUSTED DATA     
   
  Statement of Income--Unaudited pro forma tax adjusted data reflects
adjustments to the consolidated statement of income for year ended December
31, 1997. Such adjustments consider the effect of the Company's operations as
if the Company was subject to federal and state income taxes on a corporate
level. Accordingly, the pro forma income tax provision and pro forma net
income have been calculated, using an estimated income tax rate of 40%, as if
the Company was subject to income taxation as a C corporation during the
entire year.     
          
16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS--UNAUDITED     
   
  On December 22, 1997, the Company entered into a merger agreement with
Intirion Corporation ("Intirion"), pursuant to which Intirion equity
securities are expected to be exchanged for approximately 1.6 million shares
of the Company's common stock and approximately $1 million in cash. The merger
is expected to be accounted for as a pooling of interests and is expected to
close in early 1998. A prospectus/proxy statement describing the terms of the
proposed merger and containing financial statements of both companies was
prepared subsequent to year end.     
   
  On March 4, 1998, the Company entered into a Stock and Asset Purchase
Agreement pursuant to which Mac-Gray will acquire one hundred percent of the
outstanding capital stock of Amerivend Corporation and the assets of Amerivend
Southeast Corporation. The purchase price, which is subject to certain
adjustments, will be approximately $33.5 million. The acquisition is expected
to be accounted for as a purchase transaction and is expected to close in the
second quarter of 1998.

operations and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1996 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Companies' management; our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit of these statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain

supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

                    NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
 
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND THE BUSINESS
 
  Basis of Presentation--The accompanying combined financial statements
include the accounts of Sun Services of America, Inc. (Sun Services) and R.
Bodden Coin-Op-Laundry, Inc. (Bodden) (collectively, the Companies). The
Companies are 100% owned by the same shareholder and are under common
management.
 
  Nature of Business--The Companies are engaged in the coin operated laundry
business throughout Florida. The majority of the Companies' customers are
apartment complexes and laundromats. The Companies lease coin operated laundry
equipment to their customers for percentages of the monies collected. The
majority of the Companies purchases of coin route laundry equipment are from
one supplier.
 
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
  Unaudited Combined Interim Financial Statements--The accompanying combined
financial information as of March 31, 1997 and for the three month periods
ended March 31, 1996 and 1997 is unaudited. The interim financial statements
have been prepared on the same basis as the accompanying annual financial
statements. In the opinion of management, such interim financial information
reflects adjustments consisting of normal and recurring adjustments necessary
for a fair presentation of such financial information. The unaudited results
of operations for the interim periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any
other interim period or for the full year.
 
  Principles of Combined Financial Statements--The combined financial
statements include the accounts of Sun Services and Bodden, including the 1996
Acquisitions (Note 3) from their respective acquisition dates. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in combination.
 
  Cash and Cash Equivalents--The Companies consider all highly liquid
investments with original maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
 
  Concentration of Credit Risk--Financial instruments which potentially expose
the Companies to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade
receivables generated by the Companies as a result of the selling and leasing
of laundry machines. To minimize this risk, ongoing credit evaluations of
customer's financial condition are performed and reserves are maintained. The
Companies typically do not require collateral.
 
  Inventory--Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market with cost
determined using the first-in, first-out method.
 
  Property and Equipment--Property and equipment are recorded at cost.
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred;
expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized. Depreciation is
computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets.
 
  Intangible Assets--Intangible assets primarily consist of various non-
compete agreements and goodwill recorded in connection with the 1996
Acquisitions (Note 3). The non-compete agreements are amortized using the
straight-line method over the life of the agreements, which range from five to
seven years. Goodwill is amortized over fifteen years from the acquired
companies respective dates of acquisition.
 
  Income Taxes--Sun Services and Bodden have elected to be taxed as "S
corporations" as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. This results in the
pass-through of any taxable income directly to the shareholder. Accordingly,
no taxes are provided on the earnings attributable to the Companies.

  Earnings Per Share--Given the capital structure of the Companies, historical
earnings per share information is not considered meaningful or relevant and
has not been presented in the accompanying financial statements.
 
  Use of Estimates--The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
3. ACQUISITIONS
 
  During 1996, the Companies acquired certain assets of a number of coin-
operated laundry businesses (the 1996 Acquisitions). The 1996 Acquisitions
were paid in cash, with the exception of the Coin Laundry Leasing acquisition,
which also included a deferred note payable of $350. The 1996 Acquisitions
were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the
purchase price assigned to the assets and liabilities assumed was their fair
market values on the respective acquisition dates. Purchase price in excess of
the fair value of net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill. The
Companies' combined financial statements includes the results of the 1996
Acquisitions from their respective acquisition dates. The 1996 Acquisitions
purchase price allocation is summarized as follows:

into a Credit Agreement on January 26, 1996 (Note 8).

results of the Companies' historical operations or the Companies' historical
financial position.

CREDIT AGREEMENT
 
  In connection with the Companies 1996 Acquisitions (Note 3), the Companies
entered into a new Credit Agreement in January of 1996. The Credit Agreement
consists of a $700 Line of Credit; a $850 Acquisition Note; a $1,100 Term A
Facility, payable in thirty-five equal monthly installments beginning March
1996; and a $584 Term Loan B Facility, payable in thirty-seven monthly
installments of $6 beginning March 1996, with a balloon payment due April
1999. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are restricted to only provide for
working capital requirements of the Companies and fund future permitted
acquisitions and capital expenditures. As of December 31, 1996, $346 was
available to be borrowed under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement
expires in April of 1999.
 
  A portion of the proceeds from the Credit Agreement were used to pay down
the Companies' outstanding debt under the previous credit facilities.
 
  Interest--Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at 1% above
the banks prime interest rate (the "Prime Rate") (9.25% rate as of December
31, 1996). In addition, the Companies shall pay 3% of annual gross revenues
generated by all permitted acquisitions financed by proceeds from the
Acquisition Note.
 
  Termination--The Credit Agreement may be terminated at any time after the
first two years without a penalty or premium. If borrowings under the Credit
Agreement are pre-paid within the first two years, the Companies must pay a
prepayment penalty of up to 2% of the total amounts available under the Credit
Agreement. In addition, the Companies are required to pay the bank 3% of the
average monthly gross revenues of the permitted acquisition multiplied by the
number of months remaining in the term of the Credit Agreement.
 
  Amendment--In January of 1997, the Credit Agreement was amended to increase
the borrowings available under the line of credit to $850.
 
  As of December 31, 1996, the scheduled future principal payments of long-
term debt are as follows:

of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position

results of their operations and their cash flows for the three years in the
period ended June 30, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. 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 of these statements in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the

statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for the opinion expressed above.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
          (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
 
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS
 
  Originally incorporated as MicroFridge, Inc., Intirion Corporation (the
"Company") is engaged in the development, distribution, rental and sale of
multi-purpose appliances to commercial and residential markets.
 
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
  Significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of these
financial statements are as follows:
 
 Principles of Consolidation
 
  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Intirion
Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, MFI Leasing, Inc. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 
 Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
  The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
 Revenue Recognition, Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk
 
  Revenue from product sales is recognized upon shipment of the product.
Rental revenue is recognized ratably over the related contractual period,
which is less than one year. The Company offers limited duration warranties
for its products and, at time of sale, provides reserves for all estimated
warranty costs.
 
  The Company sells its products primarily to academic institutions and the
U.S. government. The Company rents its products primarily to academic
institutions and students at academic institutions. Ongoing credit evaluations
of customers' financial condition are performed, and collateral is not
required. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses and such
losses, in the aggregate, have not exceeded management's expectations.
 
 Inventories
 
  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in,
first-out basis) or market and consist primarily of finished goods.
 
 Fixed Assets and Rental Equipment
 
  Fixed assets and rental equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using
the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Tooling costs are
depreciated using the units-of-production method. Repair and maintenance costs
are expensed as incurred.
 
 Intangible Assets
 
  Included in other assets are intangible assets (primarily customer lists) of
$901 and $1,008 at June 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively, that were acquired by
the Company. These intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line
basis ranging from 5 to 10 years. Accumulated amortization totaled $185 and
$286 at June 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

incurred to originate accounts. Based on the criteria established in SOP 93-7
"Reporting on Advertising Costs," the Company has expensed these costs as
incurred. Amounts charged to advertising expense and included in selling,
general and administrative expenses totaled $136, $444 and $698 for the fiscal
years 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.
 
 Stock-based Compensation
 
  The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards to employees in
accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB No. 25"),
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations. Since
it is the Company's policy to grant options with an exercise price equal to
the fair value of the underlying stock on the grant date, no compensation cost
has been recognized for employee options under the Company's stock option
plan. In June 1996, the Company adopted the disclosure requirements of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123"), "Accounting
for Stock-based Compensation" (Note 12).
 
 Income Taxes
 
  The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income
taxes, as set forth in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"). SFAS 109 requires the recognition
of deferred taxes for the difference between the financial statement and tax
bases of assets and liabilities utilizing current tax rates. Deferred tax
assets are recognized, net of any valuation allowance, for deductible
temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax expense
represents the change in the deferred tax asset or liability balances.
 
 Use of Estimates
 
  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 Income (Loss) Per Common Share
 
  The Company accounts for income (loss) per share in accordance with
Statement of Accounting Standard No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128").
SFAS 128 requires the presentation of basic income per share and diluted
income per share ("EPS"). Basic EPS includes no dilution and is computed by
dividing net income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-
average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS
reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings
of an entity. Diluted EPS has been calculated using the treasury stock method.
 
 
 Reclassifications
 
  Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
year financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no impact
on net income for prior years.
 
 Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
 
  In the opinion of management, the Company has made all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for the fair
presentation of the financial position of the Company at December 31, 1997 and
the results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the six months
ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 as presented in the accompanying financial
statements. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results of operations for the full fiscal year.

3. DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
  The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, demand line of credit, amounts
due under inventory credit line, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and
subordinated debt approximate fair value, because of their short maturity or
holding period.
 
4. RESTRUCTURING EXPENSE
 
  During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company recorded a restructuring
charge of approximately $276. The restructuring charge consisted primarily of
termination payments paid to thirteen employees and other costs incurred as a
part of the Company's plan to restructure its sales force. All amounts
recorded in conjunction with this restructuring were paid prior to June 30,
1995.

  The Company has entered into agreements to provide rental appliances to
various customers. Rental equipment of $4,547 and $5,271 at June 30, 1996 and
1997, respectively, net of accumulated amortization of $1,437 and $2,168,
respectively, represents equipment rented to various academic institutions and
individuals under renewable contracts of various lengths. Rental equipment is
being depreciated over the estimated useful life of the equipment of 7 years.
 
  Depreciation expense totaled $693, $988 and $1,242 for fiscal years 1995,
1996 and 1997, respectively. During 1997, the Company changed its estimate on
the useful lives on furniture and fixtures to properly reflect the lives of
newer assets purchased in 1996 and 1997. The effect of this change resulted in
a reduction of 1997 depreciation expense of $81.

 Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock
 
  In April 1994, the Company issued 100,000 shares of Senior Redeemable
Preferred Stock ("Senior Stock") with detachable common stock warrants to
purchase 267,284 shares of common stock at $12.50 per share.
 
  The Company is required to redeem one third of the outstanding Senior Stock
annually, over a three-year period beginning in April 1999 at a redemption
price equal to $40.00 per share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends (the
"Liquidation Value"). This redemption obligation is being accreted through
April 2001 by charges to accumulated deficit. In the event of an initial
public offering of the common stock of the Company subsequent to January 1,
1997 which yields gross underwriting proceeds of $10,000 (a "Qualified IPO"),
the Company is required to redeem the Senior Stock at a redemption price per
share equal to $40 per share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. The
Company may also be required to redeem the Senior Stock prior to April 1999 at
the Liquidation Value upon the occurrence of certain defined events.
 
  Holders of the Senior Stock are initially entitled to one vote for each
share of common stock which may be purchased by the common stock warrants held
by the holders of the Senior Stock, subject to certain adjustments in the
event the Senior Stock is redeemed. An affirmative vote of not less than two-
thirds of the outstanding Senior Stock is required to approve certain actions,
as defined in the Senior Stock agreement, by the Company.
 
  In the event of dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, the
holders of Senior Stock have liquidation preference over all other preferred
and common stockholders and are entitled to $40.00 per share, plus accrued but
unpaid dividends.
 
  Cumulative dividends of 6.0% per annum are payable when and if declared by
the Board of Directors, upon mandatory redemption or upon liquidation. The
Senior Stock Purchase Agreement requires the maintenance of certain financial
and non-financial covenants, the more restrictive of which require the
maintenance of specific levels of tangible net worth and limit the annual
amount of common stock the Company may repurchase. Since

June 30, 1996, the Company has not been in compliance with certain covenants.
Under the terms of the Senior Stock Purchase Agreement, the dividend rate
increased by 2%. The Senior Stock has dividend preference over all other
classes of stock. Cash dividends not to exceed $36 per year may be paid to the
holders of the Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock under certain
conditions, so long as a like dividend is paid to the holders of the Senior
Stock. During 1996, cash dividends of $72 were paid to the holders of the
Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. The holders of the Senior
Stock waived their rights to payment of a like dividend. No dividends were
paid in 1997.
 
 Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
 
  In connection with the issuance of the Senior Stock, the holders of the
Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") agreed to
extend the redemption period of the Preferred Stock. As a result, the holders
of the Preferred Stock may require the Company to repurchase up to one third
of the preferred shares per year during the period from April 22, 2002 through
April 22, 2004. The repurchase price of such shares shall be: (i) the greater
of (a) ten times the earnings per share (on a fully diluted basis) for the
four quarters preceding the quarter such repurchase occurs or (b) if the
Company has cumulative net income for the period January 1, 1992 through the
redemption date of at least $1,000, $15.00 per share, plus interest compounded
at 17% per annum plus (ii) any accrued but unpaid dividends. This redemption
obligation has been calculated using an interest rate of 17%, compounded
annually, plus accrued, but unpaid dividends and is being accreted through the
redemption dates by charges to accumulated deficit.
 
  Each share of Preferred Stock may be converted at any time at the option of
the stockholder into six shares of common stock of the Company. At June 30,
1997, the Company has reserved 240,000 shares of common stock for the
conversion of all shares of the Preferred Stock.
 
  The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to the number of votes equal
to the number of whole shares of common stock into which the shares of
Preferred Stock could be converted. In addition, certain decisions and
transactions, as described in the Preferred Stock agreement, require the
approval of at least two-thirds of the preferred stockholders.
 
  In the event of the liquidation of the Company, the holders of the Preferred
Stock will be entitled to receive, in preference to any distribution to the
holders of common stock, an amount equal to the greater of (i) $15.00 per
share, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends or (ii) an amount per share which
would have been payable had each share been converted to common stock
immediately prior to the dissolution of the Company.
 
  The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative
dividends at an annual rate of $.90 per share.
 
COMMON STOCK PUT WARRANTS AND COMMON STOCK SUBJECT TO REDEMPTION
 
  In connection with the issuance of the Preferred Stock, the Company issued
warrants for the purchase of 120,000 shares of common stock with an exercise
price of $2.50 per share. These warrants were exercised in 1996 using a
cashless exercise feature. The holders of this stock can require the Company
to repurchase up to one third of the shares per year during the period from
April 22, 2002 through April 22, 2004. The repurchase price of such shares is
the greater of (a) ten times earnings per share (on a fully diluted basis) for
the four quarters preceding the quarter such repurchase occurs or (b) the
amount that would be paid as a liquidation distribution on the Preferred
Stock, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock. The
Company's maximum future redemption obligation at June 30, 1997 is $370, which
is being accreted through the redemption dates by charges to accumulated
deficit.

          (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
 
 
  In connection with the issuance of the Senior Stock, the Company issued
warrants for the purchase of 267,284 shares of common stock (the "Warrant
Shares"). The warrants are exercisable at an initial price of $12.50 per
share, subject to reduction upon the occurrence of certain events. For
financial accounting purposes, a value of $75 was ascribed to the warrants.
The holders of the warrants may require the Company to repurchase up to one
third of the Warrant Shares per year during the period from April 22, 1999
through April 22, 2001. The repurchase price of such shares shall be the
greater of (a) the book value of the Warrant Shares, as defined, (b) the
average daily closing price for twenty days prior to the repurchase, if the
common stock is publicly traded or (c) a third party sale value, less the
exercise price of the warrant. In certain circumstances, the Company may also
call the warrants prior to the repurchase period. At June 30, 1997, the
Company had no future redemption obligation as management believed that the
repurchase price of the Warrant Shares was approximately zero. In the event a
redemption obligation arises, this redemption obligation will be accreted
through the repurchase dates by charges to accumulated deficit.
 
11. STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT
 
 Common Stock Warrants
 
  In connection with the issuance of common stock during 1990, the Company
issued warrants for the purchase of 9,000 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $3.75. These warrants were exercised during 1996.
 
  In connection with the issuance of subordinated debt in 1993, the Company
issued warrants for the purchase of 37,500 shares of common stock. The
warrants are exercisable at $5.00 per share and expire in March 1998. The
value ascribed to the warrants was not significant.
 
  On April 26, 1994, the Company issued a warrant in conjunction with the
acquisition of a business to purchase a total of 800 shares of its common
stock. The warrant is exercisable at $8.00 per share and expires in April
2004. The value ascribed to the warrant was not significant.
 
  On April 30, 1997, the Company issued a warrant in conjunction with a sales
agreement to purchase a total of 5,000 shares of its common stock at a price
of $12.50 per share. The warrant is exercisable at the option of the holder
over a vesting period of five years. The value ascribed to the warrant was not
significant.
 
 
 Nonqualified Stock Options
 
  During 1989, the Company granted options to consultants of the Company to
purchase 20,000 shares of common stock. The options are exercisable at $2.50
per share and expire on March 31, 1999. At June 30, 1997, all such options are
exercisable. The value ascribed to the nonqualified stock options was not
significant.
 
  At June 30, 1997, the Company has reserved 330,584 shares of common stock
for issuance upon the exercise of the nonqualified options and the common
stock warrants for common stock.
 
 Notes Receivable for Stock Issuance
 
  During 1995, the Company accepted a note receivable as consideration for the
purchase of 21,400 shares of common stock, pursuant to the exercise of
previously granted stock options. The note bears interest at 8% per annum and
is secured on a full-recourse basis by all of the holder's personal assets.
The Company accepted 6,295 shares with a value of $10.00 as payment of the
note, plus accrued interest. These shares are included in treasury stock.
 
  During 1996, the Company accepted notes receivable as consideration for the
purchase of 13,400 shares of common stock, pursuant to the exercise of
previously granted stock options. The notes bear interest at 10% per

  In addition to the item noted previously, treasury stock includes 5,400
shares of common stock with a value of $10.00 which were accepted as payment
for an outstanding loan, plus accrued interest, to a former employee. During
the six months ended December 31, 1997, the Company accepted 1,769 shares
(unaudited) with a value of $12.50 per share as payment for an outstanding
loan, plus accrued interest, to a former employee.
 
12. STOCK PLAN
 
  During 1989, the Board of Directors adopted the 1989 Stock Plan (the
"Plan"). Under the Plan, directors, officers, employees and certain other
individuals may be awarded shares of common stock or granted options and
rights to purchase up to 200,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
Options granted may be either incentive stock options or non-qualified
options. In 1997, the Company amended the Plan to increase the number of
shares of common stock available for grant to 225,000.
 
  Incentive stock options may be granted to any officer or employee at an
exercise price per share of not less than the fair market value per common
share on the date of such grant as determined by the Board of Directors (not
less than 110% of such value in the case of holders of 10% or more of the
total combined voting power of all classes of the Company's stock).
 
  Non-qualified options may be granted to any employee, officer, director or
consultant at an exercise price per share of not less than the lesser of book
value per common share or fifty percent of the fair market value per common
share on the date of grant.
 
  Options under the Plan are exercisable over periods determined by the Board
of Directors, not to exceed ten years from the date of grant. In the event of
termination of the optionee's relationship with the Company, vested options
not yet exercised terminate 90 days from the optionee's termination date.
 
  Option activity under the Plan during the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1997
are summarized as follows:

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES
 
  Had compensation cost for the Company's option plan been determined based on
the fair value at the grant dates, as prescribed in SFAS 123, the Company's
net income on a pro forma basis would have been as follows:

</TABLE>
 
  The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using
the minimum value method with the following assumptions for grants in 1996 and
1997: dividend yield of 0.0% for both years; risk-free interest rates of 5.7%
and 6.2% for 1996 and 1997, respectively; and a weighted-average expected
option term of 5 years for both years. Because additional option grants are
expected to be made each year and options vest over several years, the above
pro forma results are not representative of pro forma effects of reported net
income for future years.

Miscellaneous Warrant and Option that is convertible or exercisable, as the case
may be, into one or more shares of Common Stock immediately prior to or at the
Effective Time, an amount equal to the product of (A) the remainder of 16.4806
minus the conversion or exercise price per share, as the case may be, of such
Miscellaneous Warrant or Option multiplied by (B) the number of shares of Common
Stock for which such Miscellaneous Warrant or Option is then convertible or
exercisable, as the case may be, and (ii) "Total Option/Warrant Value" means an

per share, of Sub (the "Sub Common Stock") shall, by virtue of the Merger and
                        ----------------                                     
without any action on the part of Parent or Sub, be converted into one (1) fully
paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.  From
and after the Effective Time, each outstanding certificate theretofore
representing shares of Sub Common Stock shall be deemed for all purposes to
evidence ownership of and to represent the number of shares of common stock of
the Surviving Corporation into which such shares of Sub Common Stock shall have
been converted.  Promptly after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation
shall issue to Parent a stock certificate representing 1,000 shares of common
stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation in exchange for
the certificate or certificates which formerly represented 1,000 shares of Sub
Common Stock, which certificate or certificates shall thereupon be canceled.

          (i)  All of the certificates and agreements representing shares of
Company Capital Stock, Warrants or Options (collectively, "Certificates"), by
                                                           ------------

treasury or directly or indirectly owned by the Company, Parent or by any of
their respective subsidiaries shall automatically be canceled and retired and
shall cease to exist, and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered or
deliverable in exchange therefor.

          (k)  No fractions of a share of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in
the Merger, but, in lieu thereof, each Stockholder shall, upon surrender of such
Stockholder's Certificate or Certificates, be entitled to receive an amount of
cash (without interest and rounded to the nearest cent) equal to $15.00
multiplied by the fractional share interest to which such Stockholder would
otherwise be entitled.

          (l)  The actual number of shares of Parent Common Stock deliverable at
or after the Effective Time to the Stockholders shall be subject to the escrow
of shares of Parent Common Stock referred to in Section 1.12 hereof.

<PAGE>
 
Stock, which shares shall be allocated pursuant to Section 1.9 below and (ii)
issue and pay to the holders of the Senior Stock a combination of shares of
Parent Common Stock (based on a price per share equal to $15.00) and cash that
together shall have an aggregate value equal to the product of (x) $51.6045
multiplied by (y) the aggregate number of shares of Senior Stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, provided that such value
shall not exceed $5,160,450 ((i) and (ii) together, the "Merger Consideration").
                                                         --------------------
The amount of cash to be paid to the holders of the Senior Stock pursuant to
clause (ii) above shall be the lesser of (I) $1,032,090 or (II) 68,806
multiplied by the per share closing price of Parent Common Stock on the NYSE on
the trading day immediately preceding the Closing Date as reported in The Wall
Street Journal (the "Senior Cash Consideration"), and the number of shares of
                     -------------------------
Parent Common Stock to be issued to the holders of the Senior Stock pursuant to

the remainder of 344,030 less the quotient that is obtained when the Senior Cash
                         ----
Consideration is divided by 15 (the "Senior Stock Consideration").

          (c)  If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time,
the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock are changed into a different
number of shares or a different class by reason of any reclassification,
recapitalization, split-up, stock dividend, stock combination, exchange of
shares or readjustment, the Merger Consideration and the allocation thereof
pursuant to this Section 1.9 shall be correspondingly adjusted.

     1.10 Exchange of Certificates.
          ------------------------ 

          (a) As of the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to
be deposited, with a bank or trust company selected by Parent, which may be the
Parent's transfer agent (the "Exchange Agent"), for the benefit of the holders
                              --------------                                  
of Certificates, for exchange in accordance with this Section 1.10, (i)
certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to
Section 1.8 hereof (as reduced on a pro rata basis by the number of shares of
Parent Common Stock placed in escrow pursuant to Section 1.12 hereof) in
exchange for the outstanding shares of the Company Capital Stock,  the Warrants
and the Options and (ii) cash sufficient to meet Parent's obligations under
Section 1.8 with respect to the Senior Stock and fractional shares (such cash
and certificates being referred to herein as the "Exchange Fund").
                                                  -------------   

          (b) As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, and in no event
later than five business days thereafter, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each
holder of record of a Certificate a form letter of transmittal (which shall
specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the
Certificate shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificate to the Exchange
Agent) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificate in
exchange for (i) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock and (ii) the amount
of cash representing payment for any shares of Senior Stock represented by such
Certificate and the payment for fractional shares pursuant to Section 1.8
hereof, which, together constitute the Merger Consideration into which the
shares of the Company Capital Stock, Warrant or Option represented by such
Certificate shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement.  Upon
surrender of a Certificate for exchange and cancellation to the Exchange Agent,
together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such
Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (x) a certificate
representing that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock which such
holder has the right to receive in respect of the Certificate surrendered
pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.8 hereof (as reduced on a pro rata basis
by the number of shares of Parent Common Stock placed in escrow pursuant to
Section 1.12 hereof) and (y) a check representing the amount of cash (1) for any
shares of Senior Stock represented by such Certificate and (2) in lieu of any
fractional share interest, if any, in accordance with Section 1.8 hereof, and
the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled.  No interest will be
paid or accrued to or for the benefit of holders of Certificates on the cash
representing the Merger Consideration.

          (c) If any certificate representing shares of Parent Common Stock is
to be issued in a name other than that in which the Certificate surrendered in
exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of the issuance thereof
that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed (or accompanied
by an appropriate instrument of transfer) and otherwise in proper form for
transfer, and that the person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange
Agent in advance any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance
of a certificate representing shares of Parent Common Stock in any name other
than that of the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or required
for any other reason, or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.  Until surrendered

                                      A-10
<PAGE>
 
as contemplated by this Section, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time
after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such
surrender the Merger Consideration. Any fractional share checks which a holder
of Company Capital Stock shall be entitled to receive in exchange for a
Certificate will be delivered to such stockholder only upon delivery of the
Certificate to the Exchange Agent. No interest will be paid or accrued on any
such fractional share checks to which the holder of such shares of Company
Capital Stock may be entitled to receive upon such delivery.

          (d) After the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company
shall be closed and there shall be no further transfers on the stock transfer
books of the Company of the shares of the Company Capital Stock, the Warrants or
the Options which were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time.  If, after the Effective Time, Certificates representing such shares of
the Company Capital Stock, the Warrants or the Options are presented for
transfer to the Exchange Agent, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the
Merger Consideration into which the shares of the Company Capital Stock, the
Warrants or the Options represented by such Certificates shall have been
converted pursuant to this Agreement.

          (e) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the
stockholders of the Company for nine months after the Effective Time shall be
paid to Parent.  Any stockholders of the Company who have not theretofore
complied with this Section 1.10 shall thereafter look only to Parent for
delivery of the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect of each share of the
Company Capital Stock, Warrants or Options that such stockholder holds as
determined pursuant to this Agreement, without any interest thereon.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Parent, the Company, the Exchange
Agent nor any other person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of the
Company Capital Stock or of Warrants or Options for any amount properly
delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property,
escheat or similar laws.

          (f) In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or
destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming
such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or
the Exchange Agent, upon the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as
Parent or the Exchange Agent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may
be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will
issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger
Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

          (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and
unless otherwise provided by applicable law, shares of Senior Stock, Series A
Stock and Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time and that are owned by Stockholders who in accordance with Section
262 of the DGCL have properly exercised and perfected their rights of appraisal
(the "Dissenting Shares"), shall not be converted into the right to receive the

Merger Consideration, unless and until such Stockholders shall have failed to
perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost their right of appraisal and
payment under applicable law.  If any such Stockholder shall have failed to
perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such right of appraisal,
each share of Senior Stock, Series A Stock and Common Stock held by such
Stockholder shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into the right to
receive and become exchangeable for, at the Effective Time, the Merger
Consideration pursuant to Section 1.8 hereof.  Holders of shares of Senior
Stock, Series A Stock and Common Stock who become entitled pursuant to the
provisions of the DGCL to payment for such shares under the provisions thereof
shall receive payment from the Surviving Corporation and such shares shall be
canceled.

          (b) The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any demands for
appraisal received 

                                      A-11
<PAGE>

connection with such demands pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company
and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect
to demands for appraisal under the DGCL consistent with the obligations of the
Company thereunder. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent
of Parent, (x) make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal, (y)
offer to settle or settle any such demands or (z) waive any failure to timely
deliver a written demand for appraisal in accordance with the DGCL.

     1.12 Escrow of Shares.  At the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit 10% of

Consideration (after subtracting (i) the shares that would otherwise be

Parent Common Stock paid in cash pursuant to Section 1.8(k)) with State Street
Bank and Trust Company, as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent"), to be held and

disbursed by such agent in accordance with the form of escrow agreement (the
"Escrow Agreement") attached hereto as Exhibit B.  Such shares shall be deducted
- -----------------                      ---------                                
pro rata from the shares allocable to each former holder of Company Capital
Stock, Warrants and Options.

has been notified by any tax authority that any such audit is contemplated or
pending.  Except as set forth in Schedule 2.8, no extension of time with respect
                                 ------------                                   
to any date on which a tax return was or is to be filed by the Company or MFI is
in force, and no waiver or agreement by the Company or MFI is in force for the
extension of time for the assessment or payment of any Taxes.

          (e) Other than the Company's ownership of MFI, neither the Company nor
MFI has ever been a member of an "affiliated group" (as defined in Section
1504(a) of the Code).  Except as set forth in Schedule 2.8, neither the Company
                                              ------------                     
nor MFI has ever filed, and has ever been required to file, a consolidated,
combined or unitary tax return with any other entity.  The Company is not a
party to any tax sharing agreement.

          (f) For purposes of this Agreement, all references to Sections of the
Code shall include any predecessor provisions to such Sections and any similar
provisions of federal, state, local or foreign law.

     2.9  Collectibility of Accounts Receivable.  All of the accounts receivable

amount of $40,000, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, is a
valid, enforceable claim, subject to no setoff or counterclaim and fully
collectible by the Company no later than the date thirty (30) days prior to the

or have become obsolete or unsaleable (except at prices less than cost) through
regular distribution channels in the ordinary course of the business of the
Company.  No such write-downs since

condition or results of operations of the Company. The values of the inventories
stated in the Base Balance Sheet and any subsequent financial statements of the
Company or MFI reflect the normal inventory valuation policies of the Company
and were determined at the lower of cost or market in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, practices and methods consistently applied.
Purchase commitments for raw materials and parts are not in excess of normal
requirements and none are at prices materially in excess of current market
prices. Except as disclosed in Schedule 2.10, all inventory items are located on

     2.25 Employee Benefit Programs
          -------------------------

          (a) Schedule 2.25 sets forth a list of every Employee Program that has
              -------------                                                     
been maintained by the Company or an Affiliate at any time during the six-year
period ending on the Closing Date.

          (b) Each Employee Program which has ever been maintained by the
Company or an Affiliate and which has been intended to qualify under Section
401(a) or 501(c)(9) of the Code has received a favorable determination or
approval letter from the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") regarding its
qualification under such section and has, in fact, been qualified under the
applicable section of the Code from the effective date of such Employee Program
through and including the Closing Date (or, if earlier, the date that all of
such Employee Program's assets were distributed).  No event or omission has
occurred which would cause any such Employee Program to lose its qualification
under the applicable Code section.

          (c) Neither the Company nor any Affiliate knows, nor should any of
them  reasonably know, of any failure of any party to comply with any laws
applicable with respect to the Employee Programs that have ever been maintained
by the Company or any Affiliate.  With respect to any Employee Program ever
maintained by the Company or any Affiliate, there has been no (i) "prohibited
transaction," as defined in Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") or Code Section 4975, (ii) failure to
comply with any provision of ERISA, other applicable law, or any agreement, or
(iii) non-deductible contribution, which, in the case of any of (i), (ii), or
(iii), could subject the Company or any Affiliate to liability either directly
or indirectly (including, without limitation, through any obligation of
indemnification or contribution) for any damages, penalties, or taxes, or any
other loss or expense.  No litigation or governmental administrative proceeding
(or investigation) or other proceeding (other than those relating to routine
claims for benefits) is pending or threatened with respect to any such Employee
Program.

          (d)  Neither the Company nor any Affiliate (i) has ever maintained any
Employee Program which has been subject to title IV of ERISA or Code Section
412, including, but not limited to, any Multiemployer Plan or (ii) has ever
provided health care or any other non-pension benefits to any employees after
their employment is terminated (other than as required by part 6 of subtitle B
of title I of ERISA) or has ever promised to provide such post-termination
benefits.

          (e) With respect to each Employee Program maintained by the Company
within the six years preceding the Closing Date, complete and correct copies of
the following documents (if applicable to such Employee Program) have previously
been delivered to Melinda J. Kent of Goodwin, Procter & Hoar LLP: 

                                     A-22

medium for the Employee Program (including, without limitation, trust
agreements) as they may have been amended to the date hereof; (ii) the most
recent IRS determination or approval letter with respect to such Employee
Program under Code Section 401 or 501(c)(9), and any applications for
determination or approval subsequently filed with the IRS; (iii) all IRS Forms
5500, with all applicable schedules and accountants' opinions attached thereto
filed by the Company in the last three (3) years; (iv) all actuarial valuation
reports completed with respect to such Employee Program filed by the Company in
the last three (3) years; (v) the summary plan description for such Employee
Program (or other descriptions of such Employee Program provided to employees)
and all modifications thereto; (vi) any insurance policy (including any
fiduciary liability insurance policy or fidelity bond) related to such Employee
Program; (vii) any registration statement or other filing made pursuant to any
federal or state securities law and (viii) all correspondence to and from any
state or federal agency within the last three (3) years.

          (f) Each Employee Program required to be listed on Schedule 2.25 may
                                                             -------------    
be amended, terminated, or otherwise modified by the Company to the greatest
extent permitted by applicable law, including the elimination of any and all
future benefit accruals under any Employee Program, and no employee
communications or provision of any Employee Program document purports to limit
the Company's or any Affiliate's right to so amend, terminate or otherwise
modify such Employee Program.

          (g) Each Employee Program ever maintained by the Company (including
each non-qualified deferred compensation arrangement) has been maintained in
compliance with all applicable requirements of federal and state securities laws
including (without limitation, if applicable) the requirements that the offering
of interests in such Employee Program be registered under the Securities Act of
1933 and/or state "Blue Sky" laws.

          (h) Each Employee Program ever maintained by the Company or an
Affiliate has complied with the applicable notification and other applicable
requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accounting Act of 1996, the
Newborns' and Mothers' Health Protection Act of 1996, and the Mental Health
Parity Act of 1996.

          within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(3), including, but not limited
          to, multiple employer welfare arrangements (within the meaning of
          ERISA Section 3(40)), plans to which more than one unaffiliated
          employer contributes and employee benefit plans (such as foreign or
          excess benefit plans) which are not subject to ERISA; and (B) all
          stock option plans, bonus or incentive award plans, severance pay
          policies or agreements, deferred compensation agreements, supplemental
          income arrangements, vacation plans, and all other employee benefit
          plans, agreements, and arrangements not described in (A) above,
          including without limitation, any arrangement intended to comply with
          Section 120, 125, 127 or 129 of the Code. In the case of an Employee
          Program funded through an organization described in Code Section
          501(c)(9), each reference to such Employee Program shall include a
          reference to such organization.

               (ii)  An entity "maintains" an Employee Program if such entity
          sponsors, contributes to, or provides benefits under such Employee
          Program, or has any obligation (by agreement or under applicable law)
          to contribute to or provide benefits under such Employee Program, or
          if such Employee Program provides benefits to or otherwise covers
          employees of such entity (or their spouses, dependents, or
          beneficiaries).

               (iii) An entity is an "Affiliate" of the Company if it would
          have ever been considered a single employer with the Company under
          ERISA Section 4001(b) or part of the same "controlled group" as the
          Company for purposes of ERISA Section 302(d)(8)(C).

               (iv)   "Multiemployer plan" means a (pension or non-pension)
          employee benefit plan to which more than one unaffiliated employer
          contributes and which is maintained pursuant to one or more collective
          bargaining agreements.

Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

consists of (i) 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock and (ii) 30,000,000 shares
of Parent Common Stock.  As of the date hereof, 11,579,826 shares of Parent

shares of capital stock of any class of Parent.  Except as set forth in Schedule
                                                                        --------

executed and delivered by Parent pursuant to this Agreement and to carry out the
transactions contemplated hereby.  The execution, delivery and performance by
Parent of this Agreement and each such other agreement, document and instrument

on the part of Parent or its stockholders is required in connection therewith.

     This Agreement and each agreement, document and instrument executed and
delivered by Parent pursuant to this Agreement constitutes, or when executed and
delivered will constitute, valid and binding 


                                     A-30

obligations of Parent enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the
enforceability of the Agreement and such other agreements may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to
or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors' rights and except as the
remedy of specific performance and other injunctive relief maybe unavailable in
certain cases. The execution, delivery and performance by Parent of this
Agreement and each such agreement, document and instrument:

     Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws of Parent;

     authorization, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or
     arbitration award to which Parent is a party or by which the property of
     Parent is bound or affected, except for such breaches, defaults,
     accelerations or rights of termination which, individually or in the
     aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
     Effect on Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or hinder the
     consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, or (B)
     result in the creation or imposition of any mortgage, pledge, lien,
     security interest or other charge or encumbrance on any of Parent's assets
     or its capital stock.

     5.5  Financial Statements.  Parent has delivered to the Company, combined
          --------------------

financial condition of the Predecessors at the dates of said statements and the

when taken together, did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were

or agreed to take any action 

                                     A-31

that is reasonably likely to adversely affect the ability of Parent to account
for the business combination to be effected by the Merger as a pooling of
interests.

     5.8   Absence of Certain Changes.  Since December 31, 1996 there has not
           --------------------------                                        
been:

          (a) Any change in the financial condition, properties, assets,
liabilities, business or operations of Parent, which change by itself or in
conjunction with all other such changes, whether or not arising in the ordinary
course of business, has had a Material Adverse Effect on Parent and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole; provided that no decrease in the reported price
of Parent Common Stock shall in any event constitute a Material Adverse Effect;
or

          (b) Any material obligation or material liability of any nature,
whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise, asserted or unasserted,
known or unknown, incurred by Parent, other than obligations and liabilities (i)

proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of Parent, threatened
against Parent or its Subsidiaries which, either individually or in the
aggregate, is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on Parent and
its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, or which would prevent or hinder the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     5.10  Finder's Fee.  Parent has not incurred or become liable for any
           ------------

Parent pursuant to this Agreement (including the SEC Documents) to the Company
do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact, and, when taken
together, do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make such representations, warranties or statements not
misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.  There are
no facts known to Parent which presently are or may in the future be reasonably
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as
a whole, which have not been specifically disclosed herein, in a Schedule
furnished herewith or in the SEC Documents, other than general economic
conditions affecting the industries in which Parent and its Subsidiaries
operate.

SECTION 6. COVENANTS OF PARENT.

           ---------------------------------                                    
and agreements set forth in this Section 6.

     6.2   Public Announcements and Confidentiality.  Parent agrees that, unless
           ----------------------------------------                             
and until the Closing has been consummated, Parent and its officers, directors,
agents and representatives will hold in strict confidence, and will not use any
confidential or proprietary data or information obtained from the Company or the
Principal Stockholder with respect to the business or financial condition of the
Company except for the purpose of evaluating, negotiating and completing the
transaction contemplated hereby and except as contemplated by Section 7.1 of
this Agreement.  Information generally known in the industries of the Company or
which has been disclosed to Parent by third parties which have a right to do so
shall not be deemed confidential or proprietary information for purposes of this

consummated, Parent will return to the Company (or certify that it has
destroyed) all copies of such data and information, including but not limited to
financial information, customer lists, business and

<PAGE>
 
corporate records, worksheets, test reports, tax returns, lists, memoranda, and
other documents prepared by or made available to Parent in connection with the
transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall be permitted, without
the prior consent of the other parties to this Agreement, to issue such press

or cause to be taken any action, whether before or after Closing, which would
disqualify the Merger as being tax-free under the Code as to Parent, Sub, the
Company and each Stockholder exchanging shares of Company Capital Stock solely
for Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger.

     6.4   Authorization from Others. Prior to the Closing Date, Parent will use
           -------------------------
its best efforts to obtain all authorizations, consents and permits of others
required to permit the consummation by Parent of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement.

     6.5   Notice of Default.  Promptly upon the occurrence of, or promptly upon

Parent becoming aware of the impending or threatened occurrence of, any event
which would cause or constitute a breach or default, or would have caused or
constituted a breach or default had such event occurred or been known to Parent
prior to the date hereof, of any of the representations, warranties or covenants
of Parent contained in or referred to in this Agreement or in any Schedule or
Exhibit referred to in this Agreement, Parent shall give detailed written notice
thereof to the Company and Parent shall use its best efforts to prevent or
promptly remedy the same.

     6.6   Consummation of Agreement.  Parent shall use its best efforts to
           -------------------------                                       
perform and fulfill all conditions and obligations on its parts to be performed

contemplated by this Agreement shall be fully carried out.  To this end, Parent
will obtain prior to the Closing all necessary authorizations or approvals of
its Board of Directors.

     6.7   Cooperation of Parent.  Parent shall cooperate with all reasonable
           ---------------------                                             
requests of the Company and the Company's counsel in connection with the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

     6.8   Prior Service Credit.  Each full-time employee of the Company
           --------------------                                         
immediately prior to the Effective Time who continues his or her full-time
employment with the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time will receive
prior service credit under (i) Parent's vacation benefits program, (ii) Parent's
sick day policy, (iii) Parent's 401(k) plan and (iv) each other benefit program
of Parent in which such employee is eligible to participate and which has a
prior service requirement, in each case equal to the amount of time such
employee was a full-time employee of the Company prior to the Effective Time.
Nothing herein expressed or implied shall confer upon any employee of the
Company or any legal representative thereof any rights or remedies, including
any right to employment or continued employment for any specified period, of any
nature or kind whatsoever, under or by reason of this Agreement.

execute a general consent to service of process in any state in which it has not

SECTION 10. INDEMNIFICATION.

     10.1   Survival. Notwithstanding any right of any party to investigate
            --------
fully the affairs of the other party and notwithstanding any knowledge of facts
determined or determinable by such party pursuant to such investigation or right
of investigation, each party has the right to rely fully upon the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of each other party in
this Agreement or in any certificate, financial statement or other document
delivered by any party pursuant hereto. All such representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the
Closing hereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 10.3 and
10.5.

     10.2   Obligation of the Stockholders to Indemnify.  Subsequent to
            -------------------------------------------                
the Effective Time, the Stockholders shall jointly and severally indemnify and
hold harmless Parent and the Surviving Corporation (and 

                                     A-39
<PAGE>
 
their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and assigns)
from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, deficiencies, costs or
expenses, including interest and penalties imposed or assessed by any judicial
or administrative body and reasonable attorneys' fees, whether or not arising
out of third-party claims and including all amounts paid in investigation,
defense or settlement of the foregoing pursuant to this Section 10 ("Losses")
based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of (a) any breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant of the Company and/or the Principal
Stockholder under this Agreement or in any certificate, schedule or exhibit
delivered pursuant hereto, or by reason of any claim, action or proceeding
asserted or instituted growing out of any matter or thing constituting a breach
of such representations, warranties or covenants and (b) any liability or
obligation of or loss by the Company for or with respect to (i) social security
taxes for the year ended December 31, 1994; (ii) Pennsylvania state taxes in
excess of $2,000 in the aggregate for the years ended December 31, 1989, 1990,
1991, 1992 and 1993 and (iii) the failure of the Company to file any Annual
Reports on Form 5500 with respect to any Employee Program.

     10.3   Limitations on Indemnification by Stockholders. Notwithstanding the
            ----------------------------------------------
foregoing, the rights to indemnification under Section 10.2 shall be subject to
the following:

            (a)  No indemnification shall be payable with respect to claims
asserted pursuant to Section 10.2(a) unless and until the amount of all claims
for indemnification under such Section exceeds $300,000 in the aggregate,
whereupon the full amount of such claims shall be recoverable in accordance with
the terms hereof. For purposes of the preceding sentence, breaches of
representations and warranties shall be determined without references to any
qualifications in such representations or warranties using the words "material,"
"materiality" or words of similar import.

            (b)  No indemnification shall be payable with respect to claims
asserted pursuant to Sections 10.2(a) or (b) after the earlier of (i) the first
anniversary of the Closing Date or (ii) the date of issuance of the first
audited financial statements of Parent for the fiscal year ending December 31,
1998 (such earlier date, the "Expiration Date"); provided, however, that if on
                              ---------------    --------  -------
or prior to the Expiration Date a specific state of facts shall have become
known which may, in the good faith judgment of Parent, give rise to a claim for
indemnification under Sections 10.2(a) or (b) and Parent shall have given
written notice (a "Contingent Claim Notice") to the Escrow Agent of such facts
                   -----------------------
known by Parent at such time, then the right to indemnification with respect to
such claim shall remain in effect without regard to when such matter shall be
finally determined and disposed of.

            (c) All indemnification claims asserted under Section 10.2(a) and
(b) shall be satisfied solely from the shares of Parent Common Stock held in
escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, provided that claims asserted under
Section 10.2(a) which involve a fraudulent or intentional misrepresentation made
by the Company to Parent or an intentional breach of this Agreement by the
Company or the Principal Stockholder may also be satisfied from the Principal
Stockholder.

            (d) The limitations of Sections 10.3(a) and (b) shall not apply in
the case of a fraudulent or intentional misrepresentation made by the Company to
Parent or an intentional breach of this Agreement by the Company or the
Principal Stockholder, and the limitations of Section 10.3(a) shall not apply in
the case of claims asserted under Section 10.2(b).

     10.4   Indemnification by Parent. Parent agrees to indemnify and hold the
            -------------------------
Stockholders harmless from and against all Losses based upon, arising out of or
otherwise in respect of any inaccuracy in, or breach of, any representation,

pursuant hereto, or by reason of any claim, action or proceeding asserted or
instituted growing out of any matter or thing constituting a breach of such
representations, warranties or covenants.

                                     A-40
<PAGE>
 
     10.5   Limitation on Indemnification by Parent. Notwithstanding the
            ---------------------------------------
foregoing, the Stockholders' right to indemnification under Section 10.4 shall
be subject to the following provisions:

            (a)  No indemnification shall be payable with respect to claims
asserted pursuant to Section 10.4, unless and until the total of all claims for
indemnification under such Section shall exceed $300,000 in the aggregate,
whereupon the full amount of such claims shall be recoverable in accordance with
the terms hereof. For purposes of the preceding sentence, breaches of
representations and warranties shall be determined without references to any
qualifications in such representations or warranties using the words "material,"
"materiality" or words of similar import.

            (b)  No indemnification shall be payable to the Stockholders with
respect to claims asserted pursuant to Section 10.4 above after the Expiration
Date; provided, however, that if on or prior to the Expiration Date a specific
      --------  -------
state of facts shall have become known which may, in the good faith judgment of
the Stockholders, give rise to a claim for indemnification under Section 10.4
and the Stockholders shall have given written notice thereof to Parent of such
facts known by the Stockholders at such time, then the right to indemnification
with respect to such claim shall remain in effect without regard to when such
matter shall be finally determined and disposed of.

            (c) Parent shall not be liable for any amount in excess of
$2,500,000.

            (d) The limitations of Sections 10.5(a), (b) and (c) shall not apply
in the case of a fraudulent or intentional misrepresentation made by Parent to
the Company or the Principal Stockholder or an intentional breach of this
Agreement by Parent.

     10.6   Notice; Defense of Claims.  An indemnified party may make claims
            -------------------------                                       
for indemnification hereunder by giving written notice thereof to the
indemnifying party within the period in which indemnification claims can be made
hereunder. If indemnification is sought for a claim or liability asserted by a
third party, the indemnified party shall also give written notice thereof to the
indemnifying party promptly after it receives notice of the claim or liability
being asserted, but the failure to do so shall not relieve the indemnifying
party from any liability except to the extent that it is prejudiced by the
failure or delay in giving such notice. Such notice shall summarize the bases
for the claim for indemnification and any claim or liability being asserted by a
third party. Within 20 days after receiving such notice the indemnifying party
shall give written notice to the indemnified party stating whether it disputes
the claim for indemnification and whether it will defend against any third party
claim or liability at its own cost and expense. If the indemnifying party fails
to give notice that it disputes an indemnification claim within 20 days after
receipt of notice thereof, it shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the
claim, which shall become immediately due and payable. The indemnifying party
shall be entitled to direct the defense against a third party claim or liability
with counsel selected by it (subject to the consent of the indemnified party,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) as long as the
indemnifying party is conducting a good faith and diligent defense. The
indemnified party shall at all times have the right to fully participate in the
defense of a third party claim or liability at its own expense directly or
through counsel; provided, however, that if the named parties to the action or
                 --------  -------
proceeding include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the
indemnified party is advised by counsel that representation of both parties by
the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of
professional conduct, the indemnified party may engage separate counsel at the
expense of the indemnifying party. If no such notice of intent to dispute and
defend a third party claim or liability is given by the indemnifying party, or
if such good faith and diligent defense is not being or ceases to be conducted
by the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right, at the
expense of the indemnifying party, to undertake the defense of such claim or
liability (with counsel selected by the indemnified party), and to compromise or
settle it, exercising reasonable business judgment. If the third party claim or
liability is one that 

                                     A-41
<PAGE>
 
by its nature cannot be defended solely by the indemnifying party, then the
indemnified party shall make available such information and assistance as the
indemnifying party may reasonably request and shall cooperate with the
indemnifying party in such defense, at the expense of the indemnifying party.

     10.7   Sole Remedy.  From and after the Closing, the sole and exclusive
            -----------                                                     
remedy of the parties hereto with respect to any and all claims relating to this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (excluding covenants to be
performed after the Closing Date) shall be the indemnification provisions set
forth in this Section 10. In determining Losses hereunder, due account shall be
taken of all relevant factors, including, without limitation, the net present
value of (i) any insurance proceeds (net of any negative tax effects) and (ii)
any deduction, credit, amortization, exclusion from income or other tax benefit
realized by the indemnified party on the account of any Loss.


SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS.

     11.1   Alternative Structure.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
            ---------------------                                           
contained in this Agreement, prior the Effective Time, Parent shall be entitled
to revise the structure of the Merger and related transactions provided that
each of the transactions describing such revised structure shall (i) fully
qualify as, or fully be treated as part of, one or more tax free reorganizations
within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and not subject any of the
Stockholders of the Company to adverse tax consequences or change the amount of
consideration to be received by such stockholders, (ii) be properly treated for
financial reporting purposes as a pooling of interests, (iii) be capable of
consummation in as timely a manner as the structure contemplated herein and (iv)
not otherwise be prejudicial to the interests of stockholders or employees of
the Company. This Agreement and any related documents shall be appropriately
amended in order to reflect any such revised structure.

     11.2   Fees and Expenses.  Except as otherwise provided herein, whether
            -----------------                                               
or not the transactions herein contemplated shall be consummated, each party
hereto will pay its own fees, expenses and disbursements and those of its
agents, representatives, accountants and counsel incurred in connection with the
subject matter of this Agreement and any amendments hereto, including all costs
and expenses incurred in the performance and compliance with all conditions to
be performed by it under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Stockholders shall pay all
of such fees and expenses incurred by them and all of such fees and expenses
incurred by the Company and no such fees or expenses shall be paid for or
reflected in any account of the Company; provided that the Company will pay the
reasonable fees and expenses of White & McDermott, P.C. up to $125,000.

     11.3   Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be construed under and
            -------------                                              
governed by the internal laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts without
regard to its conflict of laws provisions; provided that the DGCL shall govern
the provisions of this Agreement relating to the effectuation of the Merger.

     11.4   Notices.  Any notice, request, demand or other communication
            -------

Any notice given hereunder may be given on behalf of any party by his counsel or

     11.5  Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, including the Schedules and
           ----------------                                              
Exhibits referred to herein and the other writings specifically identified
herein or contemplated hereby, is complete, reflects the entire agreement of the
parties with respect to its subject matter, and supersedes all previous written
or oral negotiations, commitments and writings.

     11.6  Assignability; Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall only be
           -----------------------------                               
assignable by Parent to a 


                                     A-43
<PAGE>
 
corporation or partnership controlling, controlled by or under common control
with Parent upon written notice to the Company and the Principal Stockholder,
provided that such assignment shall not affect Parent's obligations under this
Agreement. This Agreement may not be assigned by the Principal Stockholder or
the Company without the prior written consent of Parent. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and enforceable by, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties
hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

     11.7   Captions and Gender.  The captions in this Agreement are for
            -------------------                                         
convenience only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of any
term or provision hereof.  The use in this Agreement of the masculine pronoun in
reference to a party hereto shall be deemed to include the feminine or neuter,
as the context may require.

     11.8   Execution in Counterparts. For the convenience of the parties and to
            -------------------------
facilitate execution, this Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall
constitute one and the same document.

     11.9   Amendments.  This Agreement may not be amended or modified, nor may
            ----------                                                         
compliance with any condition or covenant set forth herein be waived, except by
a writing duly and validly executed by each party hereto, or in the case of a
waiver, the party waiving compliance.

     11.10  Publicity and Disclosures. Except as contemplated by Sections 6.2
            -------------------------
and 7.1 of this Agreement, no press releases or public disclosure, either
written or oral, of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, shall be
made by a party to this Agreement without the prior knowledge and written
consent of Parent and the Company.

     11.11  Consent to Jurisdiction.  Each of the parties hereby consents to
            -----------------------                                         
personal jurisdiction, service of process and venue in the federal or state
courts of Massachusetts for any claim, suit or proceeding arising under this
Agreement, or in the case of a third party claim subject to indemnification
hereunder, in the court where such claim is brought.

     11.12  Specific Performance. The parties agree that it would be difficult
            --------------------
to measure damages which might result from a breach of this Agreement by the
Company or the Principal Stockholder and that money damages would be an
inadequate remedy for such a breach. Accordingly, if there is a breach or
proposed breach of any provision of this Agreement by the Company or the
Principal Stockholder, and Parent does not elect to terminate under Section 9,
Parent shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedies which it may have,
to an injunction or other appropriate equitable relief to restrain such breach
without having to show or prove actual damage to Parent.

     11.13  Company's Knowledge.  References in this Agreement, to "the
            -------------------                                        
Company's knowledge," "the knowledge of the Company" or words of similar import
shall mean (a) the collective actual knowledge of Robert P. Bennett, David
Wilcox, Karen Martinson Fleming and Rosellyn Sullivan and (b) such knowledge as
such persons would have had after reasonable investigation.

               ---------------                                                
of their approval of the Merger Agreement, have agreed to indemnify and hold
harmless Mac-Gray and the Surviving Corporation pursuant to Section 10 of the

                                     A-51

in this Agreement.

     2.   Escrow of Shares.
          ---------------- 

          2.1  Escrowed Shares: Proportionate Interest.  In accordance with
               ---------------------------------------                     
Section 1.12 of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time (which time shall be
set forth in a certificate of Mac-Gray delivered to the Escrow Agent), Mac-Gray
shall deposit with the Escrow Agent ________ [insert 10% of total number of
shares issued in Merger] shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock (the "Escrowed Shares")
which constitute ten percent (10%) of the total number of shares of Mac-Gray
Common Stock comprising the Merger Consideration. Each Intirion Stockholder and
GECC shall be deemed to have  contributed the number of shares of Mac-Gray
Common Stock set forth opposite such Intirion Stockholder's and GECC's name on
Schedule 1.2 which represents such Intirion Stockholder's and GECC's pro rata
portion of the shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock issuable at the Effective Time to
the Intirion Stockholders and GECC. (The pro rata portion for each Intirion
Stockholder and GECC is set forth on Schedule 1.2 and is hereinafter referred as
such Intirion Stockholder's and GECC's "Proportionate Interest").  The Escrowed
Shares shall be issued in the name of the Escrow Agent or its nominee.  If
during the term of this Agreement there is declared a stock dividend or stock
split, all securities thereby issuable with respect to the Escrowed Shares shall
be deposited hereunder and shall be deemed "Escrowed Shares" for the purposes of
this Agreement, in which event Mac-Gray shall deliver to the Escrow Agent an
updated Schedule 1.2.  If during the term of this Agreement there is paid to the
Escrow Agent any dividends in cash or other property (other than securities) in
respect of the Escrowed Shares, such dividends shall be paid currently by the
Escrow Agent to the Intirion Stockholders and GECC in accordance with each
Intirion Stockholder's and GECC's Proportionate Interest.  The Escrowed Shares
shall be held and disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.  The parties agree that for federal income tax purposes, GECC
and the Intirion Stockholders will own the Escrowed Shares as of the Effective
Time.

          2.2  Voting of Escrowed Shares.  The Escrowed Shares held by the
               -------------------------                                  
Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed issued and outstanding.
With respect to any matter on which stockholders of Mac-Gray have a right to
vote, the Escrow Agent, upon receipt of written notices to such fact, on behalf
of GECC and the Intirion Stockholders, acting at the written direction of such
stockholders, shall have the right to vote, or not vote, all Escrowed Shares (or
any portion thereof); provided, however, that the Escrow Agent shall at the
                      -----------------                                    
expense of Mac-Gray promptly forward, or cause to be forwarded, copies of any
proxies, proxy statements and other soliciting materials which it receives to
GECC and the Intirion Stockholders, and shall vote the applicable portion of the
Escrowed Shares in accordance with any written instructions timely received by
the Escrow Agent from GECC and any Intirion Stockholder.  Absent any such
written instructions, the Escrow Agent shall not vote any Escrowed Shares.

          2.3  Escrowed Shares Nontransferable.  GECC's and the Intirion
               -------------------------------                          
Stockholders' interest in this Agreement and the Escrowed Shares (prior to the
disbursement thereof) may not be transferred.

     3.   Application of Escrowed Shares.  The Escrowed Shares shall be held in
          ------------------------------                                       
escrow under the terms of this Agreement and released by the Escrow Agent upon
the following terms:

          3.1  Joint Instructions.  Upon joint written notice and instruction
               ------------------                                            
from Mac-Gray, GECC and the Stockholder Representative that the Escrowed Shares,
or any portion thereof, should be disbursed, the Escrow Agent shall make such
disbursement in accordance with the directions set forth in such joint written
notice and instruction.

          3.2  Indemnification Claim.  If at any time, or from time to time, on
               ---------------------                                           
or before the earlier of (i) the first (lst) anniversary of the Closing Date and
(ii) the date of issuance of the first audited financial statements of Mac-Gray
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 (such earlier date, the "Termination
Date"), Mac-Gray delivers to the Escrow Agent written notice (an
"Indemnification Notice") or a Contingent Claim Notice (as defined in Section
10.3(b) of the Merger Agreement) and copies thereof pursuant to Section 4.1
hereof asserting that Mac-Gray is entitled to indemnification under Section 10
of the Merger Agreement, which Indemnification Notice or Contingent Claim
Notice, as the case may be, shall state the basis and amount of such
indemnification claim, then the Escrow Agent shall disburse to Mac-Gray, on the
thirtieth (30th) day following receipt by the Escrow Agent of the
Indemnification Notice or the Contingent Claim Notice, as the case may be, a
number of the Escrowed Shares equal in value to the amount of such claim
(calculated in accordance with Section 3.7 hereof); provided, however, that if
                                                    -----------------         
the Escrow Agent receives written notice from either the Stockholder
Representative or GECC prior to such thirtieth (30th) day that a dispute exists
with respect to such indemnification claim (a "Dispute Notice"), which Dispute
Notice shall state the basis of such dispute and the number of Escrowed Shares,
if any, as to which no dispute exists, the Escrow Agent shall continue to hold
the Escrowed Shares that are in dispute (but shall disburse to Mac-Gray the
number of Escrowed Shares as to which no dispute exists) until directed
otherwise pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof.  GECC, Mac-Gray and the Stockholder
Representative shall deliver a joint written notice to the Escrow Agent setting
forth the Termination Date.

          3.3  Dispute of Indemnification Claim.  If the Escrow Agent timely
               --------------------------------                             
receives a Dispute Notice, the Escrow Agent shall retain the Escrowed Shares in
dispute until the first to occur of the following:

               3.3.1     receipt by the Escrow Agent of a joint written
instruction from Mac-Gray, GECC and the Stockholder Representative, in which
case the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrowed Shares (or applicable portions
thereof) as set forth in such joint written instructions; or

               3.3.2     receipt by the Escrow Agent of a final order of a court
of competent jurisdiction (the "Indemnity Award") resolving the dispute, in
which case the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrowed Shares (or applicable
portions, thereof) as set forth in the Indemnity Award.

          3.4  Automatic Disbursement on Termination Date.  If, on the
               ------------------------------------------             
Termination Date, there are Escrowed Shares remaining undisbursed and not
subject to an Indemnification Notice or a Contingent Claim Notice received by
the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall disburse (upon receipt of proper stock
certificates from Mac-Gray's transfer agent) such Escrowed Shares to the
Intirion Stockholders in accordance with each Intirion Stockholder's
Proportionate Interest.

          3.5  [Intentionally Omitted]

          3.6  Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares shall be issued under
               -----------------                                             
this Agreement to any of the Intirion Stockholders.  Any payment which would
result in the disbursement of a fractional share of Mac-Gray Common Stock shall
be rounded to the nearest whole share.

disburse Escrowed Shares to Mac-Gray, the Escrow Agent shall deliver to the
transfer agent for the Escrowed Shares the stock certificate representing such
Escrowed Shares and the transfer agent shall deliver to the Escrow Agent one
stock certificate representing the number of shares to be delivered to Mac-Gray
and another stock certificate representing the balance of 


                                     A-53

Escrowed Shares remaining. The Escrow Agent shall then deliver to Mac-Gray a
stock certificate representing the appropriate number of Escrowed Shares
determined in accordance with the next sentence. The number of Escrowed Shares
disbursed to satisfy an indemnification claim by Mac-Gray shall be equal to the
number of Escrowed Shares (rounded to the nearest whole share) determined as
follows: (i) the amount of Losses with respect to which Mac-Gray is entitled to
indemnification under Section 10 of the Merger Agreement and as to which the
Escrow Agent has received an Indemnification Notice or a Contingent Claim Notice
for which a Dispute Notice is not timely delivered or, if so delivered, the
dispute has been resolved in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof divided by (ii)
                                                                ----------
the per share closing price of Mac-Gray Common Stock on the New York Stock
Exchange on the Closing Date as reported in The Wall Street Journal, as

          -------------------------------------------------------

Representative, as the case may be, such additional information relating to any

may reasonably request from time to time for the purpose of evaluating the
merits of the claim for indemnification.

prior to settling any claim with respect to which Mac-Gray is seeking
indemnification (or such shorter period as is then consented to by the
Stockholder Representative and GECC), Mac-Gray shall give the Stockholder
Representative and GECC written notice thereof, which notice shall describe the
material terms of such settlement.

     5.   Scope of Undertaking.  The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility
          --------------------                                                
or obligation of any kind in connection with this Agreement and the Escrowed
Shares, and shall not be required to deliver the same or any part thereof or
take any action with respect to any matters that might arise in connection
therewith, other than to receive, hold, and make delivery of the Escrowed Shares
as herein expressly provided or by reason of a judgment or order of a court of
competent jurisdiction.

     6.   Knowledge and Sufficiency of Documents.  The Escrow Agent shall not be
          --------------------------------------                                
bound by or have any responsibility with respect to compliance with any
agreement between any of the other parties hereto, including the Merger
Agreement, irrespective of whether the Escrow Agent has knowledge of the
existence of any such agreement or terms and provisions thereof, the Escrow
Agent's only duty, liability, and responsibility being to receive, hold and
deliver the Escrowed Shares as herein provided.  The Escrow Agent shall not be
required in any way to determine the validity or sufficiency, whether in form or
in substance, of the Escrowed Shares or the validity, sufficiency, genuineness
or accuracy of any instrument, document, certificate, statement or notice
referred to in this Agreement or contemplated hereby, or the adequacy of any
security interest created hereunder; or the identity or authority of the persons
executing the same, and it shall be sufficient if any writing purporting to be
such instrument, document, certificate statement or notice is delivered to the
Escrow Agent 


                                     A-54

and purports on its face to be correct in form and signed or otherwise executed
by the party or parties required to sign or execute the same under this
Agreement.

     7.   Right of Interpleader.  Should any controversy arise between Mac-Gray,

any other person, firm or entity, with respect to this Agreement, the Escrowed
Shares, or any part thereof, or the right of any party or other person to
receive the Escrowed Shares, or should such parties fail to designate another
Escrow Agent as provided in Section 12 hereof, or if the Escrow Agent should be
in doubt as to what action to take, the Escrow Agent shall have the right (but
not the obligation) to (i) withhold delivery of the Escrowed Shares until the
controversy is resolved as provided in Section 3.3 hereof or (ii) institute a
bill of interpleader in any court of competent jurisdiction to determine the
rights of the parties hereto (the right of the Escrow Agent to institute such
bill of interpleader, however, shall not be deemed to modify the manner in which
the Escrow Agent is entitled to make disbursements of the Escrowed Shares as
hereinabove set forth, other than to tender the Escrowed Shares into the
registry of such court).  Should a bill of interpleader be instituted, or should
the Escrow Agent be threatened with litigation or become involved in litigation
in any manner whatsoever on account of this Agreement or the Escrowed Shares,
then as between itself and the Escrow Agent, Mac-Gray hereby binds and obligates
itself, its successors, heirs, executors and assigns to pay the Escrow Agent its
reasonable attorneys' fees and any and all other disbursements, expenses,
losses, costs and damages of the Escrow Agent in connection with or resulting
from such threatened or actual litigation.

and agreed that the Escrow Agent shall be under no duty or obligation to give
any notice, or to do or to omit the doing of any action or anything with respect
to the Escrowed Shares, except to hold the same and to make disbursements in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, it is acknowledged and agreed that (i) no implied duties shall be
read into this Agreement on the part of the Escrow Agent, and (ii) the Escrow
Agent shall not be obligated to take any legal or remedial action which might in
its judgment involve it in any expense or liability for which it has not been
furnished acceptable indemnification.  The Escrow Agent, its directors, officers
and employees shall not be liable for any error in judgment or any act or steps
taken or permitted to be taken in good faith, or for any mistake of law or fact,
or for anything it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith, except
for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence.

     9.   Indemnity.  As between itself and the Escrow Agent, Mac-Gray agrees to
          ---------

employees and directors harmless from any and all losses, costs, damages,
expenses, claims, and attorney's fees and expenses suffered or incurred by the
Escrow Agent as a result of, in connection with or arising from or out of the
acts or omissions of the Escrow Agent in performance of or pursuant to this
Agreement, except such acts or omissions as may result from the Escrow Agent's
willful misconduct or gross negligence.  In no event shall the Escrow Agent be
liable for indirect, punitive, special or consequential damages.

by any applicable tax law with respect to the distribution of Escrowed Shares

or other activities under this Agreement.  Mac-Gray, undertakes to instruct the
Escrow Agent in writing with respect to the Escrow Agent's responsibility for
withholding and other taxes, assessments, or other governmental charges,
certifications and governmental reporting in connection with its acting as
Escrow Agent under this Agreement.  Mac-Gray agrees to indemnify and hold the
Escrow Agent harmless from any liability on account of taxes, assessments or
other 


                                     A-55
<PAGE>
 
governmental charges, including without limitation the withholding or deduction
or the failure to withhold or deduct the same, and any liability for failure to
obtain proper certifications or to properly report to governmental authorities,
to which the Escrow Agent may be or become subject in connection with or which
arises out of this Agreement, including costs and expenses (including reasonable
legal fees and expenses), interest and penalties.

     10.  Consultation with Legal Counsel.  The Escrow Agent may consult with
          -------------------------------                                    
its in-house counsel or other counsel satisfactory to it in respect to question
relating to its duties or responsibilities hereunder or otherwise in connection

the Escrow Agent in good faith upon the advice of such counsel.  The Escrow
Agent may act through its officers, employees, agents and attorneys.

     11.  Reimbursement of Expenses.  The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to
          -------------------------

reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel incurred by it in connection with
the preparation, operating, administration and enforcement of this Agreement.
The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement on demand for all expenses
incurred in connection with the administration of this Agreement or the escrow
created hereby which are in excess of its compensation for normal services
hereunder, including without limitation, payment of any legal fees and expenses
incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with resolution of any claim by any
party hereunder.

notice to Mac-Gray, GECC and the Stockholder Representative and upon written
instruction to Mac-Gray, GECC and the Stockholder Representative, the Escrow
Agent shall deliver the Escrowed Shares to any designated substitute Escrow
Agent mutually agreeable to such parties.  If Mac-Gray, GECC and the Stockholder
Representative fail to designate a substitute Escrow Agent within 10 days, the
Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion and its sole option, either may (i)
continue to hold the Escrowed Shares or (ii) institute a bill of interpleader as
contemplated by Section 7 hereof.

     13.  Compensation.  Mac-Gray shall pay to the Escrow Agent the fee
          ------------

escrow and bear all costs and expenses incurred by the Escrow Agent in
connection therewith.  The Escrow Agent's fees, as in effect on the date hereof,

Mac-Gray Corporation
22 Water Street
Cambridge, Massachusetts 02141

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     The undersigned has been advised that, as of the date the Agreement (as
defined below) is submitted to the stockholders of Intirion Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("Intirion"), for adoption, the undersigned may be an
"affiliate" of Intirion as such term is (i) defined for purposes of paragraph
(c) and (d) of Rule 145 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Act") and/or (ii) used in
and for purposes of Accounting Series Releases 130 and 135, as amended, of the
SEC.

     Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of December 22, 1997
(the "Agreement") by and among Mac-Gray Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("Mac-Gray"), MI Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Sub"), Intirion,
and Robert P. Bennett, Sub will be merged with and into Intirion (the "Merger").
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and pursuant to the Merger,
the undersigned may receive shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of
Mac-Gray ("Mac-Gray Stock").  The undersigned will receive such shares in
exchange for (i) shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Intirion
("Intirion Common Stock"), (ii) shares of Series A convertible preferred stock,
par value $.01 per share, of Intirion ("Intirion Series A Stock"), (iii) senior
redeemable preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, of Intirion ("Intirion
Senior Stock") and/or (iv) options and/or warrants to purchase shares of
Intirion Common Stock ("Intirion Options") (Intirion Common Stock, Intirion
Series A Stock, Intirion Senior Stock and Intirion Options are collectively
referred to as "Intirion Stock").

     The undersigned understands that because the Merger will be accounted for
as a "pooling of interests," Intirion Stock and Mac-Gray Stock received in
exchange for Intirion Stock that the undersigned owns or acquires hereafter may
only be disposed of in conformity with the limitations described in this letter
agreement.

     The undersigned represents and warrants to and agrees with Mac-Gray as
follows:

     1.  For a period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of
(i) the publication (within the meaning of Accounting Series Release No. 135, as
amended, of the SEC) by Mac-Gray of financial results covering at least 30 days
of post-Merger combined operations of Mac-Gray and Intirion or (ii) the
termination of the Agreement, the undersigned will not sell, exchange, pledge,
distribute, transfer or otherwise dispose of or enter into any transaction
intended to have the effect or having the effect, directly or indirectly, of
reducing his, her or its risk of ownership (any such transaction, a "Sale") with
respect to, any shares of Intirion Stock or Mac-Gray Stock currently owned or
subsequently acquired by the undersigned.

                                      A-62
<PAGE>
 
     2.  The undersigned shall not engage in any Sale of Mac-Gray Stock in
violation of the Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder.

     3.  The undersigned has been advised that the issuance of Mac-Gray Stock to
the undersigned pursuant to the Merger will be registered under the Act on a
registration statement on Form S-4 and the resale of such shares will be subject
to the restrictions set forth in Rule 145 under the Act unless such shares are
transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement.  The undersigned
has also been advised that the undersigned may be deemed to be an "affiliate" of
Intirion at the time the Agreement is submitted for a vote of the stockholders
of Intirion.  As a result, the undersigned agrees not to sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of any Mac-Gray Stock issued to the undersigned in the Merger
unless (i) such sale, transfer or other disposition is made pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Act, (ii) such sale, transfer or
other disposition is made in conformity with the volume and other limitations of
Rule 145 under the Act (if applicable), or (iii) the undersigned has provided to
Mac-Gray an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to Mac-Gray, to the effect that
such sale, transfer or other disposition is exempt from registration under the
Act.

     4.  The certificates representing Mac-Gray Stock received by the
undersigned will be placed on the "stop-transfer list" maintained by Mac-Gray's
transfer agent and will remain so listed until the publication of the financial
results as contemplated by Paragraph 1.  In addition, there will be placed on
the certificates representing Mac-Gray Stock issued to the undersigned, or any
certificates delivered in substitution or exchange therefor, a legend stating in
substance:

     "The shares represented by this certificate were issued in a transaction to
     which Rule 145 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") applies.  The
     shares represented by this certificate may only be transferred in
     accordance with Rule 145, pursuant to an effective registration statement
     or in accordance with a written opinion of counsel, reasonably acceptable
     to Mac-Gray, to the effect that such transfer is exempt from registration
     under the Act.  The shares represented by this certificate may not be
     offered, sold, pledged, transferred or otherwise disposed of except in
     accordance with the terms of an agreement dated as of ___________ between
     the holder of this certificate and Mac-Gray Corporation, a copy of which
     will be furnished by Mac-Gray Corporation to the holder of this certificate
     upon written request and without charge."

     5.  The legend set forth in paragraph 4 above may be removed by delivery of
substitute certificates without such legend if (a) a registration statement
respecting the sale of the shares represented by such certificate has been
declared effective under the Act, (b) the undersigned shall have delivered to
Mac-Gray an opinion of counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Mac-Gray, to the effect that such legend is not required for purposes of the
Act, or (c) the sale or other disposition of the shares evidenced by such
certificate is permitted by the provisions of Rule 145 under the Act.

     6.  The undersigned has carefully read this letter and the Agreement and
has discussed the requirements of each and the limitations upon the
undersigned's ability to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of Mac-Gray Stock
and Intirion Stock, to the extent deemed necessary, with the undersigned's
counsel or counsel for Intirion.

     7.  This agreement shall be binding upon and enforceable against
administrators, executors, representatives, heirs, legatees, devisees and
successors of the undersigned and any pledgee holding Mac-Gray Stock as
collateral.

                                      A-63
<PAGE>
 
     8.   This letter agreement is governed by and shall be construed in
accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to
its rules regarding conflict of laws.

     9.   This Agreement may not be modified, amended, altered or supplemented
except upon the execution and delivery of a written agreement executed by the
parties hereto.

     10.  The undersigned acknowledge that Intirion and Mac-Gray will each be
irreparably harmed and that there will be no adequate remedy at law for a breach
of any of the covenants or agreements of the undersigned set forth herein.
Therefore, it is agreed that, in addition to any other remedies that may be
available to Intirion and Mac-Gray upon any such breach, Intirion and Mac-Gray
shall have the right to enforce such covenants and agreements by specific
performance, injunctive relief or by any other means available at law or in
equity.

     11.  This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which
shall be an original and all of which together will constitute one and the same
instrument.

                                         Very truly yours,

            (a)  If at any time or times after the date hereof the Company shall
determine to register under the Securities Act any shares of Common Stock (other
than in connection with a registration on Form S-4 or S-8 (or then equivalent
forms) or a registration statement filed in connection with an exchange offer or
offering of securities solely to the Company's existing securityholders) and the
form of registration statement to be used permits the registration of
Registrable Securities, then the Company shall promptly give written notice of
such proposed registration to the Holders (but in no event less than thirty (30)
days prior to the anticipated effective date of the registration statement).  If
within twenty (20) days after the receipt of such notice the Company receives a
written request from any Holder for the inclusion in such registration of some
or all of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder (which request shall
specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such
Holder and the intended method of distribution thereof), the Company shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be
included in such registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar
securities of the Company or any other securityholder included therein and to
permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in
accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof.  The Company may
withdraw a registration under this Section 3 at any time prior to the time it
becomes effective, provided that the Company shall give prompt notice of such
withdrawal to the Holders which requested to be included in such registration.

            (b)  In connection with any offering under this Section 3 involving
an underwriting, the Company shall not be required to include a Holder's
Registrable Securities in the underwritten offering unless such Holder accepts
the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the
underwriters selected by the Company. If the managing underwriter of an
underwritten offering with respect to which registration has been requested by
any Holder pursuant to this Section 3 has advised the Company that, in such
underwriter's good faith judgment, the number of securities to be sold in such
offering by persons other than the Company (collectively, "Selling
Stockholders") is greater than the number which can be offered without adversely
affecting such offering, then the Company may reduce the number of securities to
be included in such offering for the accounts of Selling Stockholders (including
the Holders) to a number deemed satisfactory by the managing underwriter,
provided, however, that the securities to be excluded shall be determined in the
- --------  -------
following order of priority: first, securities held by any Selling Stockholder
not having contractual, incidental registration rights; second, securities held
by any Selling Stockholder (including the Holders) participating in such
offering pursuant to the exercise of contractual piggyback registration rights
pursuant to an agreement other than the Sun Services Agreement, as determined on
a pro rata basis (based upon the aggregate number of securities held by such
Selling Stockholders) and third, securities held by any Selling Stockholder
participating in such offering pursuant to the exercise of the registration
rights under Section 4.1 of the Sun Services Agreement, as determined on a pro
rata basis (based upon the aggregate number of securities held by such Selling
Stockholders).

            (c)  Each Holder hereby agrees that such Holder may not participate
in any underwritten offering hereunder unless the Holder (a) agrees to sell such
Holder's Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting
arrangements approved by persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements, and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably
required under the terms of the underwriting arrangements.

     Section 4.  Registration Procedures.
                 ----------------------- 

     In connection with the obligations of the Company to register Registrable
Securities pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement:

          (a) The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a
     Registration Statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act,
     which form shall comply as to form in all materials respects with the
     requirements of the applicable form and include all financial statements
     required by the Commission to be filed therewith.

          (b) The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such
     amendments and post-effective amendments to any Registration Statement as
     may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for (i) in
     the case of the Shelf Registration Statement, the Target Effective Period
     and (ii) in the case of any Registration Statement other than the Shelf
     Registration Statement, the lesser of (A) one hundred eighty (180) days or
     (B) the period necessary to complete the proposed offering of Registrable
     Securities; shall cause the Prospectus included in such Registration
     Statement to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and, as
     so supplemented, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act;
     and shall comply with the provisions of the Securities Act applicable to it
     with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by
     such Registration Statement.

          (c) The Company shall furnish to any Holder, without charge, such
     number of conformed copies of any Registration Statement and any post-
     effective amendment thereto and such number of copies of the Prospectus
     (including each preliminary Prospectus) and any amendments or supplements
     thereto, as such Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the
     sale of such Holder's Registrable Securities.

          (d) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to register
     or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement
     under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such states of the United
     States as any Holder reasonably requests; provided, however, that the
                                               --------  -------          
     Company shall not be required (i) to qualify generally to do business in
     any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but
     for this Section 4(d), (ii) to file any general consent to service of
     process, or (iii) to subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction where
     it would not otherwise be subject to taxation.

          (e) The Company shall promptly notify each Holder of the happening of
     any event which makes any statement made in any Registration Statement or
     related Prospectus untrue or which requires the making of any changes in
     such Registration Statement or Prospectus so that it  will not contain any
     untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
     required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
     in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,
     and promptly following expiration of any Suspension Period (as defined in
     Section 5), the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission and
     furnish a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus so that, as thereafter
     deliverable to the purchasers of Registrable Securities, such Prospectus
     will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
     material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
     statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
     made, not misleading.

                                      A-68
<PAGE>
 
          (f) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent
     the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration
     Statement, and, if one is issued, the Company shall use commercially
     reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such order as promptly as
     practicable.

          (g) The Company shall cause the Registrable Securities included in any
     Registration Statement to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or such
     other securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company
     are then listed.

     Section 5.  Suspension Period.
                 ----------------- 

     Each Holder, upon receipt of any notice (a "Suspension Notice") from the
Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 4(e) or
of any event which, in the Company's reasonable business judgment, could become
such an event, shall immediately discontinue disposition of the Registrable
Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable
Securities until such Holder has received copies of the supplemented or amended
Prospectus contemplated by Section 4(e) (the period from the date on which such
Holder receives a Suspension Notice to the date on which such Holder receives
copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus is referred to herein as the
"Suspension Period").  If so directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver
to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such
Holder's possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities that
is current at the time of receipt of such notice.  In the event that the Company
shall give any Suspension Notice, (i) the Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts and take such actions as are reasonably necessary to end the
Suspension Period as promptly as practicable and (ii) in the event such
Suspension Period relates to the Shelf Registration Statement, the Target
Effective Period shall be extended by the number of days during the Suspension
Period.

     Section 6.  Registration Expenses.
                 --------------------- 

     Subject to the proviso below, any and all expenses incident to the
Company's performance of or compliance with this Agreement, including without
limitation Commission and securities exchange registration and filing fees,
reasonable fees and expenses of one legal counsel for the Holders, fees and
expenses incurred in connection with compliance with state securities or "blue
sky" laws, printing expenses, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the
listing of the Registrable Securities and fees and disbursements of counsel for
the Company and of the independent certified public accountants of the Company
(all such expenses being herein called "Registration Expenses"), will be borne
by the Company; provided, however, that Registration Expenses shall not include
                --------  -------                                              
(i) underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating
to the sale or disposition of Registrable Securities, (ii) any fees or expenses
of any counsel, accountants or other persons retained or employed by the
Holders, (other than the fees and expenses of one legal counsel as provided
above) or (iii) out-of-pocket expenses of the Holders and their agents,
including, without limitation, any travel costs.


     Section 7.  Indemnification and Contribution.
                 -------------------------------- 

     (a) Indemnification by the Company.  The Company agrees to indemnify and
         ------------------------------                                      
hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, each Holder, its officers,
directors, employees and agents and each Person, if any, which controls such
Holder within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section
20 

                                      A-69
<PAGE>
 
of the Exchange Act, (collectively, "Controlling Persons"), from and against
all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without
limitation any legal or other fees and expenses reasonably incurred by any
Holder or any such Controlling Person in connection with defending or
investigating any action or claim in respect thereof) (collectively, "Damages")
to which any of them may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise,
insofar as such Damages arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged
untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement
(including any related preliminary or final Prospectus) pursuant to which
Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act, or (ii) any
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, except insofar as such Damages arise out of or are based
upon any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or
omission based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by such
Holder expressly for use therein.

     (b) Indemnification by the Holders.  Each Holder agrees to indemnify and
         ------------------------------                                      
hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors,
officers, employees and agents and each Controlling Person of the Company, from
and against any and all Damages to which any of them may become subject under
the Securities Act or otherwise to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity
from the Company to such Holder, but only to the extent such Damages arise out
or are based upon any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement
or omission based upon information furnished to the Company in writing by such
Holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement.  In no event shall the
liability of any Holder for indemnification under this Section 7(b) in its
capacity as such (and not in such Holder's capacity as an officer or director of
the Company) exceed the proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of
Registrable Securities under such Registration Statement.

     (c) Indemnification Procedures.  In case any proceeding (including any
         --------------------------                                        
governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any Person in respect
of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above,
such Person (the "indemnified party") shall promptly notify the Person against
whom such indemnity may be sought (the "indemnifying party") in writing and the
indemnifying party shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the
indemnifying party may designate in such proceedings and shall pay the fees and
disbursements of such counsel relating to such proceeding.  The failure or delay
of an indemnified party to notify the indemnifying party with respect to a
particular proceeding shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any
obligation or liability which it may have pursuant to this Agreement if the
indemnifying party is not prejudiced by such failure or delay.  In any such
proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
such indemnified party.  The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent.  No
indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of any indemnified
party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement
of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which such indemnified
party is a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such
indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of
such indemnified party from all liability on all claims that are the subject
matter of such proceeding.

     (d) Contribution.  To the extent that the indemnification provided for in
         ------------                                                         
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 7 is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any
Damages, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of
indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Damages (i) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by
the Company on the one hand, and each Holder on the other, from the offering of
the Registrable Securities or (ii) if the allocation 

                                      A-70
<PAGE>
 
provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred
to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one
hand, and the Holders, on the other, in connection with the statements or
omissions which resulted in such Damages, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and
of the Holders on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company or by the Holders and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission.

     If indemnification is available under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section
7, the indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full
extent provided in such paragraphs without regard to the relative benefits to or
relative fault of said indemnifying party or indemnified party or any other
equitable consideration provided for in this Section 7(d).

     The Company and each Holder agrees that it would not be just or equitable
if contribution pursuant to this Section 7(d) were determined by pro rata
                                                                 --- ----
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to herein.  The amount paid or payable by
an indemnified party as a result of the Damages referred to in this Section 7
shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred (and
not otherwise reimbursed) by such indemnified party in connection with
investigating or defending any such action or claim.  In no event shall any
Holder be required to contribute an amount under this Section 7(d) in excess of
the proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities
under the relevant Registration Statement.  No Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

     Section 8.  Restrictions on Sales by Holders.
                 -------------------------------- 

     In the event of an underwritten public offering of securities of the
Company, each Holder shall, upon the written request of the managing underwriter
(or underwriters) of such offering, agree not to effect any sale or disposition
of any securities similar to those being registered in such offering, including,
without limitation, sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf
Registration Statement, for such period (the "Lock-up Period"), not to exceed
the lock-up period to which the executive officers of the Company agree in
connection with such offering, as such underwriter may specify.  Such agreement
shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and such underwriter.
The Target Effective Period shall be extended by the number of days during the
Lock-up Period.

     Section 9.  Information Furnished by Holders.
                 -------------------------------- 

     Each Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such
Holder and such Holder's intended method of distribution of the Registrable
Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing in
order to comply with the Securities Act and the provisions of this Agreement.
Each Holder agrees (a) to notify the Company as promptly as practicable of any
inaccuracy or change in information previously furnished by the Holder to the
Company or of the occurrence of any event, in either case as a result of which
any Prospectus contains or would contain an untrue statement of a material fact
regarding the Holder or the Holder's intended method of distribution of the
Registrable Securities or omits or would omit to state any material fact
regarding the Holder or the Holder's intended method of distribution of the
Registrable Securities

                                      A-71
<PAGE>
 
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, and (b) to promptly
furnish to the Company any additional information required to correct and update
any previously furnished information or required so that the Prospectus shall
not contain, with respect to the Holder or the Holder's intended method of
distribution of the Registrable Securities, an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then
existing.

                  -------------

                                    FORM OF
                                    -------

                               VOTING AGREEMENT
                               ----------------


     VOTING AGREEMENT dated as of December 22, 1997 (the "Agreement") between
the undersigned holder (the "Holder") of shares of the capital stock of Intirion
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Mac-Gray Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("Parent").

     The Company, Parent, MI Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Sub"), and Robert P. Bennett propose to
enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated the date hereof (the "Merger
Agreement"), pursuant to which Sub would be merged (the "Merger") with and into
the Company, and each outstanding share of capital stock of the Company would be
converted into the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock;

     As a condition of its entering into the Merger Agreement, Parent has
requested the Holder to agree, and the Holder has agreed, to enter into this
Agreement;

     Prior to the date hereof, Parent and the Holder had no agreement,
arrangement or understanding (as defined in Section 203 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law (the "DGCL")) for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or
disposing of shares of Company Capital Stock; and

     In consideration for the agreements contained herein, prior to the date
hereof, and prior to the time at and date on which Parent became an "interested
stockholder" for purposes of Section 203 of the DGCL, the board of the directors
of the Company has approved the agreement of the Holder to vote as provided in
Section 2 of this Agreement and not to transfer shares of Company Capital Stock
as provided in Section 5(b) of this Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1.  Representations and Warranties of the Holder.  The Holder represents
         --------------------------------------------                        
and warrants to Parent as follows:

         (a)  Ownership of Securities.  The Holder is the record and beneficial
owner of the number of shares of Company Capital Stock (the "Existing
Securities") (together with any shares of Company Capital Stock or other
securities of the Company hereafter acquired by the Holder, the "Subject
Securities") set forth on the signature page to this Agreement.  Other than as
disclosed in the Schedules to the Merger Agreement, the Holder does not own any
securities of the Company on the date hereof other than the Existing Securities.
The Holder has sole voting power and sole power to issue instructions with
respect to the voting of the Existing Securities, sole power of disposition,
sole power of exercise or conversion and the sole power to demand appraisal
rights, in each case with respect to all of the Existing Securities and, on the
date of the Special Meeting (as defined in the Merger Agreement), will have sole
voting power and sole power to issue instructions with respect to the voting of
all of the Holder's Subject Securities, sole power of disposition, sole power of
exercise or conversion and the sole power to demand appraisal rights, in each
case with respect to all of the Holder's Subject Securities.

         (b)  Power; Binding Agreement. The Holder has full power and authority
to enter into and perform all of the Holder's obligations under this Agreement.
This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Holder
and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Holder, enforceable against
the Holder in accordance with its terms, except that (i) such enforcement may be
subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws, now or
hereafter in effect, affecting creditors' rights generally, and (ii) the remedy
of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may
be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which
any proceeding therefor may be brought.

         (c)  No Conflicts.  No filing with, and no permit, authorization,
consent or approval of, any state or federal public body or authority is
necessary for the execution of this Agreement by the Holder and the consummation
by the Holder of the transactions contemplated hereby and neither the execution
and delivery of this Agreement by the Holder nor the consummation by the Holder
of the transactions contemplated hereby nor compliance by the Holder with any of
the provisions hereof shall conflict with or result in any breach of any
applicable organizational documents of the Company applicable to the Holder,
result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or
lapse of time or both) a default (or give rise to any third-party right of
termination, cancellation, material modification or acceleration) under any of
the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture,
license, contract, commitment, arrangement, understanding, agreement or other
instrument or obligation of any kind to which the Holder is a party or by which
the Holder's properties or assets may be bound or violate any order, writ,
injunction, decree, judgment, order, statute, rule or regulation applicable to
the Holder or any of the Holder's properties or assets.

         (d)  No Liens.  Except as set forth in the Schedules to the Merger
Agreement, the Existing Securities are now and, at all times during the term
hereof, the Subject Securities will be held by the Holder, or by a nominee or
custodian for the benefit of such Holder, free and clear of all liens, claims,
security interests, proxies, voting trusts or agreements, understandings or
arrangements or any other encumbrances whatsoever, except for any encumbrances
arising hereunder.

     2.  Agreement to Vote Shares.  At every meeting of the stockholders of the
         ------------------------                                              
Company called with respect to any of the following, and at every adjournment
thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders
of the Company with respect to any of the following, the Holder agrees that it
shall vote all the Subject Securities that it beneficially owns on the record
date of any such vote: (i) in favor of the Merger, the execution and delivery of
the Merger Agreement and the approval of the terms thereof and each of the other
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and (ii) against the following
actions (other than the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement): (1) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
consolidation or other business combination involving the Company or its
subsidiaries; (2) a sale, lease or transfer of a material amount of assets of
the Company or its subsidiaries or a reorganization, recapitalization,
dissolution or liquidation of the Company or its subsidiaries; (3) (a) any
change in the majority of the board of directors of the Company; (b) any
material change in the present capitalization of the Company or any amendment of
the Company's Certificate of Incorporation; (c) any other material change in the
Company's corporate structure or business; or (d) any other action; which, in
the case of each of the matters referred to in clauses (a), (b), (c) or (d)
above, is intended, or could reasonably be expected, to impede, interfere with,
delay, postpone, discourage or materially adversely affect the contemplated
economic benefits to Parent of the Merger or the transactions contemplated by
the Merger Agreement or this Agreement.

than in the ordinary course of business) a portion of the assets of, or any
equity interest in, the Company, any merger or business combination with the
Company or any public or private offering of interests in the Company. If the
Holder receives any such inquiry or proposal, then it shall promptly inform

to enter into and perform all of the Holder's obligations under this Agreement.
This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Holder

subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws, now or
hereafter in effect, affecting creditors' rights generally, and (ii) the remedy
of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may
be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which
any proceeding therefor may be brought.

          (c) No Conflicts.  No filing with, and no permit, authorization,

termination, cancellation, material modification or acceleration) under any of
the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture,
license, contract, commitment, arrangement, understanding, agreement or other
instrument or obligation of any kind to which the Holder is a party or by which
the Holder's properties or assets may be bound or violate any order, writ,
injunction, decree, judgment, order, statute, rule or regulation applicable to
the Holder or any of the Holder's properties or assets.

          (d) No Liens.  Except as set forth in the Schedules to the Merger
Agreement, the Existing Securities are now and, at all times during the term
hereof, the Subject Securities will be held by the Holder, or by a nominee or
custodian for the benefit of such Holder, free and clear of all liens, claims,
security interests, proxies, voting trusts or agreements, understandings or
arrangements or any other encumbrances whatsoever, except for any encumbrances
arising hereunder.

     2.   Agreement to Vote Shares.  At every meeting of the stockholders of the
          ------------------------                                              
Company called with respect to any of the following, and at every adjournment
thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders
of the Company with respect to any of the following, the Holder agrees that it

ARTICLE 3.  MISCELLANEOUS
- ---------   -------------

     Section 3.01   Scope of Agreement.  The parties acknowledge that the time,
                    ------------------                                         
scope, geographic area and other provisions of this Agreement have been
specifically negotiated by sophisticated commercial parties and agree that all
such provisions are reasonable under the circumstances of the Executive's
employment with the Company.  The Executive has independently consulted with his
counsel and has been advised in all respects concerning the reasonableness and
propriety of the covenants contained herein, with specific regard to the
businesses conducted by the Company and its Affiliates.

     Section 3.02   Specific Performance; Severability.  It is specifically
                    ----------------------------------                     
understood and agreed by the parties hereto that the breach by the Executive of
any provision of this Agreement will result in irreparable injury to the Company
and its Affiliates, that the remedy at law alone will be an inadequate remedy
for such breach and that, in addition to any other remedy they may have, the
Company and each of its Affiliates shall be entitled to enforce the specific
performance of this Agreement by the Executive through both temporary and
permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damages.  If
the Company is required to post a bond in connection with obtaining any
temporary or permanent injunctive relief, the parties hereto agree that such
bond shall be limited in amount to $10,000 and that such amount is reasonable
and adequate for such bond. In the event that any covenant or provision
contained in this Agreement shall be determined by any court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too long a
period of time or over too large a geographical area or by reason of its being
too extensive in any other respect, such covenant or provision 

                                      A-91
<PAGE>
 
shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but rather shall be
interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time for which it may be
enforceable, and/or over the maximum geographical area as to which it may be
enforceable, and/or to the maximum extent in all other respects as to which it
may be enforceable, all as determined by such court in such action. The
existence of any claim or cause of action which the Executive may have against
the Company or any of its Affiliates shall not constitute a defense or bar to
the enforcement of any of the provisions of this Agreement and shall be pursued
through separate court action by the Executive.

     Section 3.03   Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and
                    -------------                                          
construed in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts,
without regard to the conflicts or choice of law provisions thereof.

     Section 3.04   Attorneys' Fees.  If any suit or action is instituted by

either party to enforce or in connection with any dispute relating to this
Agreement, the prevailing party in such suit or action shall be entitled to have
all court costs and attorneys' fees paid by the non-prevailing party.

                    ----------------------                                    
benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors of the Company and its
Affiliates by way of merger, consolidation or transfer of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company, and may not be assigned by the Executive.

     Section 3.06   No Conflicting Obligations.  The Executive hereby represents
                    --------------------------                                  
and warrants to the Company that he is not now under, or bound to be under in
the future, any obligation to any person, firm or corporation which is or would
be inconsistent or in conflict with this Agreement or would prevent, limit or
impair in any way the full and absolute performance by the Executive of his
obligations hereunder.  In addition, the Executive covenants that he will not
enter into or discuss entering into any such agreement.

     Section 3.07   Entire Agreement; Modifications.  This Agreement constitutes
                    -------------------------------                             
the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof
and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations,
negotiations and understandings of the parties, whether oral or written.  No
supplement, modification or amendment to this Agreement shall be binding unless
executed in writing by all the parties hereto.

     Section 3.08   No Employment Obligations.  The Executive understands and
                    -------------------------                                
agrees that this Agreement does not create any obligation on the part of the
Company to continue his employment with the Company.

     Section 3.09   Waivers.  The failure of any party to require the
                    -------                                          
performance or satisfaction of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the
waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent
subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any
subsequent failure or breach.

     Section 3.10   Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more
                    ------------                                                
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

     Section 3.11   Notices.  All notices and other communications under this
                    -------                                                  
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered by certified mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the address set forth above unless
another address shall be furnished in writing by such party.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 8.3(e) of the
Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of December 22, 1997 (the "Merger
Agreement") by and among Mac-Gray Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("Parent"), MI Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Parent ("Sub"), Intirion Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), and Robert P. Bennett.  Capitalized terms used but not defined
herein shall have the respective meanings attributed to them in the Merger
Agreement.

     We have acted as counsel to Parent and Sub in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.  In arriving at the opinions
expressed below, we have examined and relied on the originals or copies,
certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the Merger Agreement,
the Escrow Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (collectively, the
"Subject Agreements").  We have also examined such other records, documents,
certificates and other instruments we have deemed necessary to enable us to
render the opinions contained herein.

     In our examination, we have assumed without any investigation (i) the legal
capacity of each natural person, (ii) the full power and authority of each
person other than Parent and Sub to execute, deliver and perform its obligations
under each document heretofore executed and delivered or hereafter to be
executed and delivered and to do each other act heretofore done or hereafter to
be done by such person, (iii) the due authorization, execution and delivery by
each person other than Parent and Sub of each document  heretofore executed and
delivered or hereafter to be executed and delivered by such person, (iv) the
legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability as to each person other
than Parent and Sub of each document heretofore executed and delivered or
hereafter to be executed and delivered and of each other act heretofore done or
hereafter to be done by such person, (v) the genuineness of each signature other
than those of officers of Parent and Sub and the completeness and authenticity
of each document submitted to us as an original, (vi) the conformity to the
original of each document submitted to us as a copy, (vii) the authenticity of
the original of each document submitted to us as a copy and (viii) no amendment
or modification hereafter of any provision of any document.  Insofar as our
opinion relates to, or dependent on, any matter of fact, we have relied on
representations of Parent and Sub as set forth in the Merger Agreement, and upon
written statement and certificates of officers of Parent and Sub and of public
officials.  We have not attempted to verify independently the accuracy of such
representations, statements or certificates.

                                      A-96

     As used in this opinion with respect to any matter, the qualifying phrase
"to our knowledge" means that, in the course of our performing legal services
for Parent and Sub with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Subject
Agreements, nothing has come to the attention of the attorneys in this firm who
have performed such legal services, and in this regard it is noted that we have
not made any special review or investigation in connection with rendering the
opinion with respect to the matters so qualified.

     Members of our firm are admitted to the bar in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts and we express no opinion as to any laws other than the laws of
the United States of America, the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

     For the purposes of this opinion, we have assumed that each party other
than Parent and Sub has taken any and all necessary action, to execute, deliver
and perform its obligations under the Subject Agreements and each other
agreement to which it is a party, and that it has duly executed and delivered
each such agreement, and that each such agreement is a valid and binding
obligation of such party, enforceable against such party in accordance with its
terms.

     The opinions expressed below are qualified to the extent that (i) the
validity or enforceability of any provision of any instrument or document or any
rights granted thereunder may be subject to or affected by any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or similar law
relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally; (ii) the remedy of
specific performance or any other equitable remedy may be unavailable in any
jurisdiction or may be withheld as a matter of judicial discretion; and (iii)
equitable principles may be applied in construing or enforcing the provisions of
any instrument or document (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a
proceeding in equity or at law).

     The opinions set forth below are further subject to the following
qualifications and exceptions:

          (i)   The opinions set forth in paragraph 1 hereof with respect to the
     valid existence and good standing of Parent and Sub are based solely upon
     certificates issued by the office of the Secretary of State of the State of
     Delaware, copies of which have been delivered to your legal counsel on the
     date hereof; and

          (ii)  no opinion is given herein as to the enforceability of any
     provisions for indemnification of any person for liability under federal or
     state securities laws.

     Based on the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications, assumptions and
exceptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

     1.   Each of Parent and Sub is a corporation duly incorporated, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.  Each of
Parent and Sub has full power and authority to conduct its business in the
manner that it is presently being conducted.

     2.   Each of Parent and Sub has full corporate power and corporate
authority to execute and deliver each Subject Agreement to which it is a party,
to perform its obligations thereunder and to consummate the transactions
contemplated thereby, including, in the case of Sub, the Merger.  The execution,
delivery and performance by each of Parent and Sub of each Subject Agreement to
which it is a party have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary
corporate action of Parent and Sub, and no further corporate proceedings on the
part of Parent or Sub are required in connection therewith.

                                      A-97
<PAGE>
 
     3.   Each of Parent and Sub has duly executed and delivered each Subject
Agreement to which it is a party, and each such agreement constitutes the valid
and binding obligation of Parent and/or Sub, as the case may be, enforceable
against Parent and/or Sub, as the case may be, in accordance with its terms,
subject to the qualifications above.

     4.   The execution, delivery and performance of the Subject Agreements by
each of Parent and Sub does not require Parent or Sub to obtain any approval,
consent or waiver of, or to make any filing with, any governmental or regulatory
agency or administrative body of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, under the
DGCL or of the federal government of the United States of America that has not
been obtained or made, except the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the DGCL.

     5.   The shares of Mac-Gray Common Stock to be issued at the Effective Time
are duly authorized and, when issued in accordance with the Merger Agreement
pursuant to the Merger, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

     6.   As of the date hereof and immediately following consummation of the
Merger, the authorized capital stock of Parent consists of (a) 30,000,000 shares
of common stock, $.01 par value per share, of which ___________ shares are
issued and outstanding and (b) 5,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock,
$.01 par value per share, of which no shares are issued and outstanding.  Except
as set forth on Schedule 5.3(a)(i) to the Merger Agreement, to our knowledge
                ------------------                                          
there are no outstanding options, warrants, rights, commitments, preemptive
rights or agreements of any kind for the issuance or sale of, or outstanding
securities convertible into, any additional shares of capital stock of any class
of Parent.

     This opinion is based upon currently existing statutes, rules and
regulations and judicial decisions and is rendered as of the date hereof, and we
disclaim any obligation to advise you of any change in any of the foregoing
sources of law or subsequent developments in law or changes in facts or
circumstances which might affect any matters or opinions set forth herein.

     The opinions set forth herein are rendered solely for your use in
connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and may
not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or furnished to, quoted to, or
relied upon by, in whole or in part, any other person, firm or corporation for
any purpose, without our prior written consent.

                                    Very truly yours,



                                    GOODWIN, PROCTER & HOAR  LLP

                                                                      ----------


                       DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW


     262 APPRAISAL RIGHTS.--(a)  Any stockholder of a corporation of this State
who holds shares of stock on the date of the making of a demand pursuant to
subsection (d) of this section with respect to such shares, who continuously
holds such shares through the effective date of the merger or consolidation, who
has otherwise complied with subsection (d) of this section and who has neither
voted in favor of the merger or consolidation nor consented thereto in writing
pursuant to Section 228 of this title shall be entitled to an appraisal by the
Court of Chancery of the fair value of the stockholder's shares of stock under
the circumstances described in subsections (b) and (c) of this section.  As used
in this section, the word "stockholder" means a holder of record of stock in a
stock corporation and also a member of record of a nonstock corporation; the
words "stock" and "share" mean and include what is ordinarily meant by those
words and also membership or membership interest of a member of a nonstock
corporation; and the words "depository receipt" mean a receipt or other
instrument issued by a depository representing an interest in one or more
shares, or fractions thereof, solely of stock of a corporation, which stock is
deposited with the depository.

     (b)  Appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of any class or
series of stock of a constituent corporation in a merger or consolidation to be
effected pursuant to Section 251 (other than a merger effected pursuant to
Section 251(g) of this title), Section 252, Section 254, Section 257, Section
258, Section 263 or Section 264 of this title:

     (1)  Provided, however, that no appraisal rights under this section shall
be available for the shares of any class or series of stock, which stock, or
depository receipts in respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine
the stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting of
stockholders to act upon the agreement of merger or consolidation, were either
(i) listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market
system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc. or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 holders;
and further provided that no appraisal rights shall be available for any shares
of stock of the constituent corporation surviving a merger if the merger did not
require for its approval the vote of the stockholders of the surviving
corporation as provided in subsection (f) of Section 251 of this title.

     (2)  Notwithstanding paragraph (1) of this subsection, appraisal rights
under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of
stock of a constituent corporation if the holders thereof are required by the
terms of an agreement of merger or consolidation pursuant to Section 251, 252,
254, 257, 258, 263 and 264 of this title to accept for such stock anything
except;

     a.  Shares of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from such
merger or consolidation, or depository receipts in respect thereof;

     b.  Shares of stock of any other corporation, or depository receipts in
respect thereof, which shares of stock (or depository receipts in respect
thereof) or depository receipts at the effective date of the merger or
consolidation will be either listed on a national securities exchange or
designated as a national market system 

                                      B-1
<PAGE>
 
security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. or held of record by more than 2,000 holders;

     c.  Cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts
described in the foregoing subparagraphs a. and b. of this paragraph; or

     d.  Any combination of the shares of stock, depository receipts and cash in
lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in the
foregoing subparagraphs a., b. and c. of this paragraph.

     (3)  In the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Delaware corporation
party to a merger effected under Section 253 of this title is not owned by the
parent corporation immediately prior to the merger, appraisal rights shall be
available for the shares of the subsidiary Delaware corporation.

     (c)  Any corporation may provide in its certificate of incorporation that
appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any
class or series of its stock as a result of an amendment to its certificate of
incorporation, any merger or consolidation in which the corporation is a
constituent corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
the corporation. If the certificate of incorporation contains such a provision,
the procedures of this section, including those set forth in subsections (d) and
(e) of this section, shall apply as nearly as is practicable.

     (d)  Appraisal rights shall be perfected as follows:

     (1)  If a proposed merger or consolidation for which appraisal rights are
provided under this section is to be submitted for approval at a meeting of
stockholders, the corporation, not less than 20 days prior to the meeting, shall
notify each of its stockholders who was such on the record date for such meeting
with respect to shares for which appraisal rights are available pursuant to
subsections (b) and (c) hereof that appraisal rights are available for any or
all of the shares of the constituent corporations, and shall include in such
notice a copy of this section.  Each stockholder electing to demand the
appraisal of his shares shall deliver to the corporation, before the taking of
the vote on the merger or consolidation, a written demand for appraisal of his
shares.  Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation
of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to
demand the appraisal of his shares.  A proxy or vote against the merger or
consolidation shall not constitute such a demand.  A stockholder electing to
take such action must do so by a separate written demand as herein provided.
Within 10 days after the effective date of such merger or consolidation, the
surviving or resulting corporation shall notify each stockholder of each
constituent corporation who has complied with this subsection and has not voted
in favor of or consented to the merger or consolidation of the date that the
merger or consolidation has become effective; or

     (2)  If the merger or consolidation was approved pursuant to Section 228 or
Section 253 of this title, each constituent corporation, either before the
effective date of the merger or consolidation or within ten days thereafter,
shall notify each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such
constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal rights of the approval of
the merger or consolidation and that appraisal rights are available for any or
all shares of such class or series of stock of such constituent corporation, and
shall include in such notice a copy of this section; provided that, if the
notice is given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation,
such notice shall be given by the surviving or resulting corporation to all such
holders of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation that are
entitled to appraisal rights. Such notice may, and, if given on or after the
effective date of the merger or consolidation, shall, also notify such
stockholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation.  Any
stockholder entitled to appraisal rights may, within 

                                      B-2
<PAGE>
 
20 days after the date of mailing of such notice, demand in writing from the
surviving or resulting corporation the appraisal of such holder's shares. Such
demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the
identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand
the appraisal of such holder's shares. If such notice did not notify
stockholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation, either (i)
each such constituent corporation shall send a second notice before the
effective date of the merger or consolidation notifying each of the holders of
any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation that are entitled
to appraisal rights of the effective date of the merger or consolidation or (ii)
the surviving or resulting corporation shall send such a second notice to all
such holders on or within 10 days after such effective date; provided, however,
that if such second notice is sent more than 20 days following the sending of
the first notice, such second notice need only be sent to each stockholder who
is entitled to appraisal rights and who has demanded appraisal of such holder's
shares in accordance with this subsection. An affidavit of the secretary or
assistant secretary or of the transfer agent of the corporation that is required
to give either notice that such notice has been given shall, in the absence of
fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For purposes of
determining the stockholders entitled to receive either notice, each constituent
corporation may fix, in advance, a record date that shall be not more than 10
days prior to the date the notice is given, provided, that if the notice is
given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the record
date shall be such effective date. If no record date is fixed and the notice is
given prior to the effective date, the record date shall be the close of
business on the day next preceding the day on which the notice is given.

     (e)  Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger or
consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation or any stockholder who has
complied with subsections (a) and (d) hereof and who is otherwise entitled to
appraisal rights, may file a petition in the Court of Chancery demanding a
determination of the value of the stock of all such stockholders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time within 60 days after the effective
date of the merger or consolidation, any stockholder shall have the right to
withdraw his demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the
merger or consolidation.  Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger
or consolidation, any stockholder who has complied with the requirements of
subsections (a) and (d) hereof, upon written request, shall be entitled to
receive from the corporation surviving the merger or resulting from the
consolidation a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not voted
in favor of the merger or consolidation and with respect to which demands for
appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares.
Such written statement shall be mailed to the stockholder within 10 days after
his written request for such a statement is received by the surviving or
resulting corporation or within 10 days after expiration of the period for
delivery of demands for appraisal under subsection (d) hereof, whichever is
later.

     (f)  Upon the filing of any such petition by a stockholder, service of a
copy thereof shall be made upon the surviving or resulting corporation, which
shall within 20 days after such service file in the office of the Register in
Chancery in which the petition was filed a duly verified list containing the
names and addresses of all stockholders who have demanded payment for their
shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been
reached by the surviving or resulting corporation.  If the petition shall be
filed by the surviving or resulting corporation, the petition shall be
accompanied by such a duly verified list.  The Register in Chancery, if so
ordered by the Court, shall give notice of the time and place fixed for the
hearing of such petition by registered or certified mail to the surviving or
resulting corporation and to the stockholders shown on the list at the addresses
therein stated. Such notice shall also be given by 1 or more publications at
least 1 week before the day of the hearing, in a newspaper of general
circulation published in the City of Wilmington, Delaware or such publication as
the Court deems advisable. The forms of the notices by mail and by publication
shall be approved by the Court, and the costs thereof shall be borne by the
surviving or resulting corporation.

                                      B-3
<PAGE>
 
     (g)  At the hearing on such petition, the Court shall determine the
stockholders who have complied with this section and who have become entitled to
appraisal rights. The Court may require the stockholders who have demanded an
appraisal for their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to
submit their certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery for notation
thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any stockholder
fails to comply with such direction, the Court may dismiss the proceedings as to
such stockholder.

     (h)  After determining the stockholders entitled to an appraisal, the Court
shall appraise the shares, determining their fair value exclusive of any element
of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger or
consolidation, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon
the amount determined to be the fair value. In determining such fair value, the
Court shall take into account all relevant factors. In determining the fair rate
of interest, the Court may consider all relevant factors, including the rate of
interest which the surviving or resulting corporation would have had to pay to
borrow money during the pendency of the proceeding. Upon application by the
surviving or resulting corporation or by any stockholder entitled to participate
in the appraisal proceeding, the Court may, in its discretion, permit discovery
or other pretrial proceedings and may proceed to trial upon the appraisal prior
to the final determination of the stockholder entitled to an appraisal. Any
stockholder whose name appears on the list filed by the surviving or resulting
corporation pursuant to subsection (f) of this section and who has submitted his
certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery, if such is required, may
participate fully in all proceedings until it is finally determined that he is
not entitled to appraisal rights under this section.

     (i)  The Court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the shares,
together with interest, if any, by the surviving or resulting corporation to the
stockholders entitled thereto. Interest may be simple or compound, as the Court
may direct. Payment shall be so made to each such stockholder, in the case of
holders of uncertificated stock forthwith, and the case of holders of shares
represented by certificates upon the surrender to the corporation of the
certificates representing such stock. The Court's decree may be enforced as
other decrees in the Court of Chancery may be enforced, whether such surviving
or resulting corporation be a corporation of this State or of any state.

     (j)  The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Court and taxed
upon the parties as the Court deems equitable in the circumstances.  Upon
application of a stockholder, the Court may order all or a portion of the
expenses incurred by any stockholder in connection with the appraisal
proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and the
fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all
the shares entitled to an appraisal.

     (k)  From and after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, no
stockholder who has demanded his appraisal rights as provided in subsection (d)
of this section shall be entitled to vote such stock for any purpose or to
receive payment of dividends or other distributions on the stock (except
dividends or other distributions payable to stockholders of record at a date
which is prior to the effective date of the merger or consolidation); provided,
however, that if no petition for an appraisal shall be filed within the time
provided in subsection (e) of this section, or if such stockholder shall deliver
to the surviving or resulting corporation a written withdrawal of his demand for
an appraisal and an acceptance of the merger or consolidation, either within 60
days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation as provided in
subsection (e) of this section or thereafter with the written approval of the
corporation, then the right of such stockholder to an appraisal shall cease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no appraisal proceeding in the Court of Chancery
shall be dismissed as to any stockholder without the approval of the Court, and
such approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Court deems just.

                                      B-4
<PAGE>
 
     (l)  The shares of the surviving or resulting corporation to which the
shares of such objecting stockholders would have been converted had they
assented to the merger or consolidation shall have the status of authorized and
unissued shares of the surviving or resulting corporation.

                    INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
 
ITEM 20. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
 
  In accordance with Section 145 of the DGCL, Article VII of the Mac-Gray
Charter provides that no director of Mac-Gray shall be personally liable to
Mac-Gray or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty
as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty
of loyalty to Mac-Gray or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in
good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
law, (iii) in respect of certain unlawful dividend payments or stock
redemptions or repurchases, or (iv) for any transaction from which the
director derived an improper personal benefit. In addition, the Mac-Gray
Charter provides that if the DGCL is amended to authorize the further
elimination or limitation of the liability of directors, then the liability of
a director of Mac-Gray shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent
permitted by the DGCL, as so amended.
 
  Article V of the Mac-Gray By-laws provides for indemnification by Mac-Gray
of its directors and officers and certain non-officer employees under certain
circumstances against expenses (including attorneys fees, judgments,
penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred in
connection with the defense or settlement of any threatened, pending or
completed legal proceeding in which any such person is involved by reason of
the fact that such person is or was an officer or employee of Mac-Gray unless
it is determined that such person did not act in good faith and in a manner he
or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
Mac-Gray, and, with respect to criminal actions or proceedings, such person
had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
 
  Mac-Gray has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its
directors reflecting the foregoing provisions of the Mac-Gray By-laws and
requiring the advancement of expenses in proceedings involving directors in
most circumstances and also intends to purchase directors' and officers'
insurance to provide additional protections to the directors and officers of
Mac-Gray in certain circumstances.

ITEM 22. UNDERTAKINGS
 
  (a) Mac-Gray hereby undertakes:
 
    (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
  post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
 
      (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
    Securities Act of 1933;
 
      (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
    the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
    post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
    aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
    in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
    increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total
    dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
    registered) may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
    Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in
    volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the
    maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
    Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;
 
      (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
    distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or
    any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
 
    (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
  Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
  to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
  therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
  to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;
 
    (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
  any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
  termination of the offering;
 
    (4) That prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered
  hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this Registration
  Statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within
  the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes that such reoffering
  prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable
  registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed
  underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other items
  of the applicable form;
 
    (5) That every prospectus: (i) that is filed pursuant to paragraph (4)
  immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of
  Section 10(a)(3) of the Act and is used in connection with an offering of
  securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to
  the Registration Statement and will not be used until such amendment is
  effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the
  Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
  to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
  therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
  to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
    (6) To supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information
  concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein,
  that was not the subject of and included in the Registration Statement when
  it became effective.
 
  (b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
Mac-Gray, Mac-Gray has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by Mac-Gray in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, Mac-Gray will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

                            Schlumberger DANYL, Inc.


1.   ACCEPTANCE
     ----------

     It is agreed that sales of products and/or services are expressly made on
the terms and conditions contained herein, and to the extent of any conflict
these shall take precedence over any terms and conditions which may appear on
Mac-Gray's purchase order or any other document unless expressly accepted by
Schlumberger in writing.  Mac-Gray's acceptance of and/or payment for the
products or services covered herein shall constitute an acceptance of these
terms and conditions.

2.   PAYMENT TERMS
     -------------

     All invoices are due and payable thirty (30) days from date of invoice.

     For any amounts payable to Schlumberger that are unpaid after thirty (30)
days from date of the invoice, Schlumberger may without prejudice to any other
rights, either suspend delivery to Mac-Gray, ship any future order COD, and/or
charge Mac-Gray a finance charge of 1-1/2% per month on the unpaid balance.

     No payment due to Schlumberger shall in any circumstances be offset against
any sum owned by Schlumberger to Mac-Gray whether in respect of the present
transaction or otherwise.  No discount for early payment is authorized.  In the
event any proceeding is brought by or against Mac-Gray under any bankruptcy or
insolvency laws, Schlumberger shall be entitled to cancel any order then
outstanding and shall receive reimbursement for reasonable cancellation charges.

3.   TAXES
     -----

     All prices are inclusive of import duty (including brokerage fees) but
exclusive of any present or future sales, revenue, or excise taxes, or other tax
applicable to the products or services covered by this order or the manufacture
or sale thereof.  Such taxes, when applicable, shall be added to the invoice and
shall be paid by Mac-Gray unless Mac-Gray provides Schlumberger with the proper
tax exemption certificates.

4.   DELIVERY TERMS
     --------------

     All sales are made FOB Schlumberger's U.S. shipping point, with freight
prepaid.  Freight charges shall be invoiced to Mac-Gray.

     Risk of loss shall pass to Mac-Gray at point of shipment.  Schlumberger's
liability for shipment and delivery of goods ceases upon delivery of products in
good condition to a shipping company or common carrier designated by Mac-Gray or

reserves the right to make deliveries of products in installments and any delay
in delivery or other default of any installment of any one or more products
shall not relieve Mac-Gray of its obligation to accept and pay the remaining
deliveries.

6.   PERFORMANCE AND NEW PRODUCTS DIVISION
     -------------------------------------

     Schlumberger and Mac-Gray agree to meet every 90 to 180 days to review the
status of their mutual interests including forecasts, performance against the
Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, deliveries, service, and product
performance.

     Schlumberger accepts the following performance goals and measures:

          products will operate in the field as indicated in the written      
               specifications;
          products will operate reliably in the field, where reliably is defined
               as maintaining an average mean time between failures (MTBF) of 12
               months on readers that are maintained as recommended, and where
               failures caused by misuse, external causes, or abuse of readers
               are excluded; and, 97% of deliveries of releases products are
               made within 10 working days of acknowledged delivery date.

     In the event that Schlumberger's performance does not achieve any of the
above measures for more that 60 days, Mac-Gray will provide written notice to
the Schlumberger contact identified below that Schlumberger is not achieving the
performance goals of the Agreement. Schlumberger will then have 90 days to 
correct the situation. If the situation is not corrected after 90 days, Mac-Gray
will have the right to cancel the Agreement without penalty.

     If at any time during the term of this Agreement Schlumberger develops or
offers for sale either (a) a new product which is a replacement of successor
for, an evolution of, or serves substantially the same functions as, any of the
products to be purchased by Mac-Gray under this Agreement or (b) a product which
would convert, adapt, or otherwise permit the products to be purchased by Mac-
Gray under this Agreement to be used in an "open" smart card system, then (i)
Schlumberger shall give prompt notice to Mac-Gray of such fact, and (ii) if Mac-
Gray so requests, Mac-Gray and Schlumberger will negotiate in good faith an
agreement for the sale of such products to Mac-Gray and if such agreement is not
reached within thirty days following Mac-Gray's request, Mac-Gray shall have the
right to terminate this Agreement effective upon written notice to Schlumberger.

reject the goods.

product ordered as required with the exception that Mac-Gray agrees not to
reduce any quantities ordered within 90 days of scheduled shipment.

     If, after an order is accepted by Schlumberger, Mac-Gray requests changes
to product design, specification or quantity, and if such changes are accepted
by Schlumberger, Schlumberger shall prepare a revised quotation.  If accepted by
Mac-Gray, the order shall be amended accordingly.

11.  CARD ART, PROOFS AND COLOR MATCH
     --------------------------------

     (a)  Art.
          ---

property, including electronic media, negatives, positives, and printing plates
(to be disposed of at Schlumberger's convenience in a secure manner).

     (b)  Proofs.
          ------ 

     All four-color process designs require press proofs and Mac-Gray approval
before production run. Press proofs for other processes are not required and
shall not be submitted unless requested.  Charges for proofs are not included in
quoted prices unless specified.

13.  WARRANTIES
     ----------

     (a)  Schlumberger warrants that the products and software supplied with or
incorporated in Schlumberger's products furnished hereunder will, under normal
and proper use, be free from defects in material and workmanship and will
conform to Schlumberger's applicable standard written specifications or, if
appropriate, to specifications accepted in writing by Schlumberger, for a period
of one (1) year from the date of shipment for terminals and readers and (90)
ninety days for cards.

     Schlumberger's sole obligation hereunder shall be limited to, at
Schlumberger's option, either crediting Mac-Gray the purchase price or replacing
or repairing any products or software, except post-processed integrated circuit
cards.  For post-processed integrated circuit cards (those that have had one or
more operations performed by another party or Mac-Gray after delivery),
Schlumberger's sole obligation hereunder shall be limited to replacement or
credit of a quantity of cards not to exceed 2% of the total quantity per batch,
after subtracting 2% for each step of post-processing per batch delivered by
Schlumberger.  These obligations apply to products for which (i) written notice
of non-conformance is received before the expiration of the warranty period;
(ii) after Schlumberger's authorization, are returned to Schlumberger's original
U.S. shipping point, freight charges prepaid; and (iii) after examination are
disclosed, to Schlumberger's satisfaction, to be non-conforming.  Any such
repair or replacement shall not extend the period within which such warranty can
be asserted.

     (b)  Exclusions.
          ---------- 

     This warranty shall not apply to products or software which have been
subjected to operating and/or environmental conditions in excess of the maximum
values therefore in the applicable specifications or otherwise have been
subjected to post-processing (except as provided herein), misuse, tampering,
neglect, improper installation, abnormal stress, repair, modification,
alteration, or damage.  Schlumberger is not responsible for defects or non-
conformance to Schlumberger's specifications if product is produced according to
Mac-Gray's specifications or approved proofs, colors, or test cards.  The
software warranty is only valid for products in which the software used have
been supplied or approved by Schlumberger and neither the software not hardware
has been modified in any way.  THIS WARRANTY MAY BE ASSERTED BY MAC-GRAY ONLY,
NOT BY MAC-GRAY'S CUSTOMERS OR USERS OF THE MAC-GRAY'S PRODUCTS AND IS IN LIEU
OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR MERCHANTABILITY, AND OF ALL
OTHER OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES ON SCHLUMBERGER'S PART.  SCHLUMBERGER NEITHER
ASSUMES NOR AUTHORIZES ANY OTHER PERSON TO ASSUME FOR SCHLUMBERGER ANY OTHER
LIABILITIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALES OF SAID PRODUCTS.

14.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

contract, negligence, strict liability, tort, or otherwise) shall in no event
exceed the purchase price of the goods and services in respect to which such
cause arises.

<PAGE>
 
     (b)  Exceptions.
          ---------- 

     In the event of proven fraudulent use of embossed, encoded, printed or
blank cards, or any information contained thereon, or any errors resulting from

careless, negligent, or felonious acts of an employee or agent of Schlumberger,
the maximum liability of Schlumberger shall be $500 per card, with a maximum
Mac-Gray limit of $5,000 per year of proven loss.  Schlumberger shall not be
held liable for damages resulting from the use of cards personalized by
Schlumberger according to inaccurate, incomplete or out-of-date requirements
from Mac-Gray.  IN NO EVENT SHALL SCHLUMBERGER BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY SUCH CAUSE.

SOFTWARE, OR WORK, OR WITH RESPECT TO GOODS PURCHASED, REFUND THE PURCHASE PRICE

     -------------

     Schlumberger shall not be liable to non-performance or delays caused by

disputes, governmental restrictions or any other causes beyond its reasonable
control.  In the event of any such excused delay of failure or performance, the

Mac-Gray in writing of any such event or circumstance within a reasonable period
after it learns of same.

preceding sentence, Schlumberger shall hold Mac-Gray harmless and shall settle
or defend any suit or proceeding brought against Mac-Gray insofar as based on a
claim that any product (or part thereof) manufactured by Schlumberger and
furnished under this contract and not used in combination with other products,
whether or not furnished hereunder, constitutes a direct infringement of any
United States patent if notified promptly in writing and given authority,
information and assistance (at Schlumberger's expense) for the settlement of
defense of same, and Schlumberger shall pay the damages and costs awarded
therein against Mac-Gray or agreed upon in such settlement.  Schlumberger may
(at its option and expense) either (i) procure for Mac-Gray the right to
continue using said product or part, or (ii) furnish a non-infringing product,
or (iii) modify the product so it becomes non-infringing or (iv) refund the
purchase price and transportation cost thereof upon return authorized by
Schlumberger.  THE FOREGOING STATES THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF SCHLUMBERGER FOR

              ------------------                                        
adjusted as of the Closing Date to the extent that Estimated Net Working Capital
(as defined below) of Amerivend differs from the Net Working Capital of
Amerivend at December 31, 1996 (the "1996FYE Net Working Capital"), which the
parties estimate was $870,300, as follows:

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
               (i)   The Amerivend Purchase Price shall be increased by the
amount (if any) by which Estimated Net Working Capital exceeds the 1996FYE Net
Working Capital; and

               (ii)  The Amerivend Purchase Price shall be decreased by the
amount (if any) by which the 1996FYE Net Working Capital exceeds Estimated Net
Working Capital.

For purposes of this Section 1.05, "Net Working Capital" means the aggregate
value of Amerivend's current assets minus the aggregate value of Amerivend's
current liabilities (excluding any current portion of any indebtedness which
reduces the Amerivend Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.03 hereof), all as
determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")
and consistent with the practices and policies used in preparing Amerivend's
December 31, 1996 balance sheet. For purposes of this Agreement, "Estimated Net
Working Capital" means the estimated Net Working Capital of Amerivend at the
Closing Date based on a statement jointly prepared by and agreed to by Buyer and
Amerivend at least two business days prior to the Closing Date.

          (b) Post-Closing Adjustment.  The Amerivend Purchase Price will be
              -----------------------                                       
adjusted dollar for dollar following the Closing Date as provided in this
Section 1.05(b). Buyer shall pay the Stockholders (in proportion to their
respective allocations on Exhibit A hereto) the amount (if any) by which the
                          ---------                                         
Closing Net Working Capital (as defined in Section 1.05(c) below) exceeds the
Estimated Net Working Capital and the Stockholders shall pay Buyer the amount
(if any) by which the Estimated Net Working Capital exceeds the Closing Net
Working Capital. Payment shall be made in immediately available funds by the
party obligated to make such payment not more than five business days following
the determination of the Closing Net Working Capital pursuant to Section 1.05(c)
hereof.

          (c) Closing Net Working Capital Statement.  Buyer will furnish to the
              -------------------------------------                            
Stockholders' Representative (as defined in Section 1.12 hereof) not later than
45 days after the Closing Date a statement (the "Closing Net Working Capital
Statement") showing the Net Working Capital of Amerivend at the Closing Date
(the "Closing Net Working Capital"). Buyer will give Stockholders'
Representative and his accountants reasonable access to books, records and work
papers of Amerivend for purposes of confirming the Closing Net Working Capital
Statement.  Unless Stockholders' Representative notifies Buyer in writing that
it disagrees with the Closing Net Working Capital Statement within 30 days after
Stockholders' Representative's receipt thereof, the Closing Net Working Capital
Statement shall be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto and not subject
to dispute or review.  If Stockholders' Representative notifies Buyer in writing
of its disagreement with the Closing Net Working Capital Statement within such
30-day period, then Stockholders' Representative and Buyer shall attempt to
resolve their differences with respect thereto within 30 days after Buyer's
receipt of Stockholders' Representative's written notice of disagreement.  Any
dispute regarding the Closing Net Working Capital Statement not resolved by
Stockholders' Representative and Buyer within such 30-day period will be
resolved by an accounting firm mutually acceptable to both parties or, in the
absence of agreement, by an accounting firm of national reputation selected by
lot after eliminating Buyer's principal outside accountants and

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
Stockholders' Representative' principal outside accountants and one additional
firm designated as objectionable by each of Buyer and Stockholders'
Representative. The parties will engage the accounting firm within seven days

ending on the Closing Date.

          (a)   Each Employee Program which has ever been maintained by either
Company or any of its Subsidiaries and which has at any time been intended to
qualify under Section 401(a) or 501(c)(9) of the Code has received a favorable

Programs that have been maintained by either Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

("ERISA"), or Section 4975 of the Code, or breach of any duty under ERISA or
other applicable law (including, without limitation, any health care
continuation requirements or any other tax law requirements, or conditions to
favorable tax treatment, applicable to such plan), which could result, directly
or indirectly, in any taxes, penalties or other liability to either Company, any
Subsidiary or Buyer.  No litigation, arbitration, governmental administrative
proceeding (or investigation) or other proceeding (other than those relating to
routine claims for benefits) is pending or threatened with respect to any such
Employee Program.  No Employee Program has any material unfunded or underfunded
obligation to provide benefits to any past, current or future participant
therein.

below) (i) has ever maintained any Employee Program which has been subject to
Title IV of ERISA

(ii) has ever provided health care or any other non-pension benefits to any
employees after their employment is terminated (other than as required by Part 6
of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA) or has ever promised to provide such post-
termination benefits.

          (d)   With respect to each Employee Program maintained by either
Company or any Subsidiary within the three (3) years preceding the Closing,
complete and correct copies of the following documents (if applicable to such
Employee Program) have previously been delivered to Buyer: (i) all documents
embodying or governing such Employee Program, and any funding medium for the
Employee Program (including, without limitation, trust agreements), as they may
have been amended; (ii) the most recent IRS determination or approval letter
with respect to such Employee Program under Code Section 401 or 501(c)(9), and
any applications for determination or approval subsequently filed with the IRS;
(iii) the three (3) most recently filed IRS Forms 5500, with all applicable
schedules and accountants' opinions attached thereto; (iv) the summary plan
description for such Employee Program (or other descriptions of such Employee
Program provided to employees) and all modifications thereto; (v) any insurance
policy (including any fiduciary liability insurance policy) related to such
Employee Program; (vi) any documents evidencing any loan to an Employee Program
that is a leveraged employee stock ownership plan; and (vii) all other materials
reasonably necessary for Buyer to perform any of its responsibilities with
respect to any Employee Program subsequent to the Closing (including, without
limitation, health care continuation requirements).

          (e)   For purposes of this Section:

                (i)   "Employee Program" means (A) all employee benefit plans
within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(3), including, but not limited to,
multiple employer welfare arrangements (within the meaning of ERISA Section
3(4)), plans to which more than one unaffiliated employer contributes and
employee benefit plans (such as foreign or excess benefit plans) which are not
subject to ERISA; and (B) all stock option plans, bonus or incentive award
plans, severance pay policies or agreements, deferred compensation agreements,
supplemental income arrangements, vacation plans, and all other employee benefit
plans, agreements and arrangements not described in (A) above. In the case of an
Employee Program funded through an organization described in Code Section
501(c)(9), each reference to such Employee Program shall include a reference to
such organization.

                (ii)  An entity "maintains" an Employee Program if such entity
sponsors, contributes to, or provides (or has promised to provide) benefits
under such Employee Program, or has any obligation (by agreement or under
applicable law) to contribute to or provide benefits under such Employee
Program, or if such Employee Program provides benefits to or otherwise covers
employees of such entity, or their spouses, dependents or beneficiaries.

                (iii) An entity is an "Affiliate" of a Company or a Subsidiary
if it would have ever been considered a single employer with such Company or any
of its Subsidiaries under ERISA Section 4001(b) or part of the same "controlled
group" as such Company or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of ERISA Section
302(d)(8)(C).

                (iv)  "Multiemployer Plan" means a (pension or non-pension)

as set forth in said Schedule. Each Company and each of its Subsidiaries is in
compliance with all applicable laws and regulations respecting labor,
employment, fair employment practices, work place safety and health, terms and

discrimination or unfair labor practices, nor are there any strikes, slowdowns,
stoppages of work or any other concerted interference with normal operations
which are existing, pending or threatened against or involving either Company or
any of its Subsidiaries. No question concerning representation exists respecting
any employees of either Company or any of its Subsidiaries. There are no
grievances, complaints or charges that have been filed against either Company or

not limited to, any proceedings under any dispute resolution procedure under any
collective bargaining agreement) that might have a Material Adverse Effect on
the Companies and their Subsidiaries taken as a whole, and there is no
arbitration or similar proceeding pending and no claim therefor has been

satisfaction, noncompliance or nonperformance; or

               (iv)  by Buyer or Amerivend, if the Closing has not occurred on

                                                           --------  -------
that (i) the provisions of this Section 8, Section 4.08, Section 6.02 and

 SECTION 10.  INDEMNIFICATION
 ----------------------------

      10.01 Indemnification by Southeast and the Stockholders.  Southeast and
            ------------------------------------------------- 
the Stockholders jointly and severally agree subsequent to the Closing to
indemnify and hold Amerivend, each Subsidiary, Buyer and their respective
subsidiaries and affiliates and persons serving as officers, directors, partners
or employees thereof (individually, a "Buyer Indemnified Party" and,
collectively, the "Buyer Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against any
damages, liabilities, losses, taxes, fines, penalties, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees of counsel) of any kind or
nature whatsoever (whether or not arising out of third-party claims and
including all amounts paid in investigation, defense or

                                       44
<PAGE>
 
settlement of the foregoing) which may be sustained or suffered by any of them
arising out of or based upon any of the following matters:

          (a)   Fraud, intentional misrepresentation or a deliberate or willful
breach by either Company or any Stockholder of any of their representations,
warranties or covenants under this Agreement or in any Certificate, Schedule or
Exhibit delivered pursuant hereto;

          (b)   Any other breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of
either Company or any Stockholder under this Agreement or in any Certificate,
Schedule or Exhibit delivered pursuant hereto, or by reason of any claim, action
or proceeding asserted or instituted arising out of any matter or thing
constituting a breach of such representations, warranties or covenants;

          (c)   Any liability of Amerivend or any Subsidiary for Taxes arising
from an event or transaction prior to the Closing or as a result of the Closing
which have not been paid or provided for or reserved against by Amerivend in the
Base Balance Sheet, including, without limitation, any increase in Taxes due to
the unavailability of any loss or deduction claimed by Amerivend or a
Subsidiary; provided, however, that neither Southeast nor the Stockholders shall
have any obligation under this Section 10.01(c) for any Taxes imposed by Section
1374 of the Code which arise by virtue of any election under Section 338(h)(10)
of the Code; and

          (d)    Any liability of Southeast.

      10.02 Limitations on Indemnification by Southeast and the Stockholders.
            ---------------------------------------------------------------- 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right of Buyer Indemnified Parties to
indemnification under Section 10.01 shall be subject to the following
provisions:

          (a)   No indemnification shall be payable pursuant to Subsection
10.01(b) above to any Buyer Indemnified Party, unless the total of all claims
for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.01 shall exceed $25,000 in the
aggregate, whereupon the full amount of such claims shall be recoverable in
accordance with the terms hereof; and

          (b)   No indemnification shall be payable to a Buyer Indemnified Party
with respect to claims under Subsection 10.01(b) which are asserted after the
date which is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (the "Expiration
Date"); provided that (i) if on or prior to the Expiration Date a specific state
of facts shall have become known which may give rise to a claim for
indemnification under Subsection 10.01(b) and a Buyer Indemnified Party shall
have given written notice to the Stockholders of such facts known by such Buyer
Indemnified Party at such time, then the right to indemnification with respect
to such claim shall remain in effect without regard to when such matter shall be
finally determined and disposed of and (ii) claims under Subsection 10.01(b) for
indemnification for Taxes or environmental matters or based upon or related to a
breach of any representation, warranty or covenant with respect to Taxes

                                       45
<PAGE>
 
or tax related matters or environmental matters may be asserted until the 60th
day following expiration of the statute of limitations (if any) applicable to
such claim.
 
     The limitations contained in this Subsection 10.02 shall not apply to the
indemnification obligations of Southeast and the Stockholders arising under
Subsections 10.01(a) and 10.01(c).

      10.03 Indemnification by Buyer.  Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold
            ------------------------                                     
Southeast and the Stockholders (individually, each a "Stockholder Indemnified
Party" and, collectively, the "Stockholder Indemnified Parties") harmless from
and against any damages, liabilities, losses and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable fees of counsel) of any kind or nature whatsoever
(whether or not arising out of third-party claims and including all amounts paid
in investigation, defense or settlement of the foregoing) which may be sustained
or suffered by any of them arising out of or based upon (a) any breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant made by Buyer in this Agreement or in any
Certificate delivered by Buyer hereunder, or by reason of any claim, action or
proceeding asserted or instituted arising out of any matter or thing
constituting such a breach and (b) any Taxes imposed by Section 1374 of the Code
which arise by virtue of any election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code.

      10.04 Limitation on Indemnification by Buyer.  Notwithstanding the
            --------------------------------------                      
foregoing, the right of Stockholder Indemnified Parties to indemnification under
Section 10.03 shall be subject to the following provisions:

          (a)   No indemnification pursuant to Section 10.03(a) shall be payable
to any Stockholder Indemnified Party, unless the total of all claims for
indemnification pursuant to Section 10.03 shall exceed $25,000 in the aggregate,
whereupon the full amount of such claims shall be recoverable in accordance with
the terms hereof; and

          (b)   No indemnification shall be payable to any Stockholder
Indemnified Party with respect to claims under Section 10.03(a) above which are
asserted after the Expiration Date; provided that if on or prior to the
Expiration Date a specific state of facts shall have become known which may give
rise to a claim for indemnification under Subsection 10.03(a) and a Stockholder
Indemnified Party shall have given written notice to Buyer of such facts known
by such Stockholder Indemnified Party at such time, then the right to
indemnification with respect to such claim shall remain in effect without regard
to when such matter shall be finally determined and disposed of.

     The limitations contained in this Section 10.04 shall not apply to the
indemnification obligations of Buyer arising under Section 10.03(b).

      10.05 Notice; Defense of Claims.  An indemnified party may make claims for
            -------------------------                                           
indemnification hereunder by giving written notice thereof to the indemnifying
party within the period in which indemnification claims can be made hereunder.
If indemnification is sought for a claim or liability asserted by a third party,
the indemnified party shall also give written notice thereof to the indemnifying
party promptly after it receives notice of the claim or

                                       46
<PAGE>
 
liability being asserted, but the failure to do so shall not relieve the
indemnifying party from any liability except to the extent that it is prejudiced
by the failure or delay in giving such notice. Such notice shall summarize the
bases for the claim for indemnification and any claim or liability being
asserted by a third party. Within 20 days after receiving such notice the
indemnifying party shall give written notice to the indemnified party stating
whether it disputes the claim for indemnification and whether it will defend
against any third-party claim or liability at its own cost and expense. If the
indemnifying party fails to give notice that it disputes an indemnification
claim within 20 days after receipt of notice thereof, it shall be deemed to have
accepted and agreed to the claim, which shall become immediately due and
payable. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to direct the defense against
a third-party claim or liability with counsel selected by it (subject to the
consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld) as long as the indemnifying party is conducting a good faith and
diligent defense. The indemnified party shall at all times have the right to
fully participate in the defense of a third-party claim or liability at its own
expense directly or through counsel; provided, however, that if the named
                                     -----------------
parties to the action or proceeding include both the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party and the indemnified party is advised that representation of
both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable
standards of professional conduct, the indemnified party may engage separate
counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. If no such notice of intent to
dispute and defend a third-party claim or liability is given by the indemnifying
party, or if such good faith and diligent defense is not being or ceases to be
conducted by the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right,
at the expense of the indemnifying party, to undertake the defense of such claim
or liability (with counsel selected by the indemnified party), and to compromise
or settle it, exercising reasonable business judgment. If the third-party claim
or liability is one that by its nature cannot be defended solely by the
indemnifying party, then the indemnified party shall make available such
information and assistance as the indemnifying party may reasonably request and
shall cooperate with the indemnifying party in such defense, at the expense of
the indemnifying party.

      10.06 Claims Against Indemnification Escrow.  In the event that a Buyer
            -------------------------------------                            
Indemnified Party sustains or incurs losses (including, without limitation,
attorneys fees) for which it is entitled to indemnification from Southeast or
the Stockholders under this Agreement, in addition to all other rights or
remedies that such Buyer Indemnified Party may have (including the right to
collect directly from Southeast or the Stockholders), such Buyer Indemnified
Party shall be entitled to receive in cash from the Escrow Agent an amount equal
to the losses (including, without limitation, attorneys fees), sustained or
incurred by such Buyer Indemnified Party, in accordance with the Escrow
Agreement.

written consent of Buyer, the Companies and the Stockholders' Representative;
                                                                             
provided, however, that Buyer shall be permitted to disclose such information

contemplated hereby as may be legally required, and otherwise reasonably
necessary, in the preparation, completion, filing and distribution of such
reports, filings and other documents required by the Securities Act, the

      11.10 Consent to Jurisdiction.  Each of the parties hereby consents to
            -----------------------                                         
personal jurisdiction, service of process and venue in the federal or state
courts of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts for any claim, suit or proceeding
arising under this Agreement, or in the case of a third-party claim subject to
indemnification hereunder, in the court where such claim is brought.

      11.11 Specific Performance.  The parties agree that it would be 
            --------------------                                                
difficult to measure damages which might result from a breach of this Agreement
by either Company or the Stockholders and that money damages would be an
inadequate remedy for such a breach. Accordingly, if there is a breach or
proposed breach of any provision of this Agreement by either Company or the
Stockholders, and Buyer does not elect to terminate under Section 8, Buyer shall
be entitled, in addition to any other remedies which it may have, to an
injunction or other appropriate equitable relief to restrain such breach without
having to show or prove actual damage to Buyer.

      11.12 Bulk Sales Law.  Buyer hereby waives compliance by Southeast of any
            --------------                                                     
applicable bulk sales law and Southeast agrees to make full and prompt payment
of all amounts owed by Southeast to its creditors.  Southeast and Mr. Pulver,
jointly and severally, agree (in addition to and independent of the
indemnification obligations contained in Section 10) to indemnify and hold Buyer
harmless from, and reimburse Buyer for, any loss, cost, expense, liability or
damage (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and expenses) which
Buyer may suffer or incur by virtue of the non-compliance by Southeast with such
laws.
