                    TRIDENT AUTOMOTIVE PLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - THE COMPANY:

    Trident Automotive plc (the "Company") was formed on December 12, 1997, when
    it acquired substantially all of the assets and the operations of the FKI
    Automotive Group from FKI plc (the "FKI Acquisition"). The aggregate
    purchase price, including transaction costs, was approximately $170 million.
    The FKI Acquisition was financed with $42.5 million in equity contributions,
    $75 million in proceeds from a private placement of the Company's 10% Senior
    Subordinated Notes due 2005 (the "Notes") and borrowings under a $105
    million secured credit facility.

    On April 30, 1998, the Company was acquired by Dura Automotive Systems
    (UK), Ltd. ("Dura Ltd."), a wholly owned subsidiary of Dura Automotive
    Systems, Inc. ("Dura") (the "Dura Acquisiton"). Dura Ltd. acquired all of
    the outstanding shares of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of
    approximately $87.5 million and assumed the Company's outstanding
    indebtedness of approximately $128 million.

    Dura Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dura Automotive Systems, Inc., a
    Delaware corporation, which is a leading designer and manufacturer of driver
    control systems, engineered mechanical components and cable-related systems
    for the global automotive industry.

    In connection with the Dura Acquisition, the Company's credit facility was
    replaced by a new Credit Agreement (see Note 3). The initial borrowing under
    the Credit Agreement occurred concurrent with the Dura Acquisition.

    The Dura Acquisition constituted a change of control as defined by the
    Company's Notes Indenture ("Indenture"). Upon the occurrence of a change of
    control, each holder of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase all
    or any part of the Notes held by such holder at an offer price in cash equal
    to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest and
    other specified costs to the date of repurchase. Pursuant to the terms of
    the Indenture, Dura initiated a change of control offer to the holders of
    the Notes on May 8, 1998. No holders tended their Notes.

    The FKI Acquisition and the Dura Acquisition were both accounted for using
    the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities
    at each of the acquisition dates were recorded at their fair value. The
    excess of the respective purchase prices was recorded as goodwill and is
    being amortized over forty years. In the accompanying consolidated financial
    statements, for the period prior to December 12, 1997, the Company is
    referred to as the FKI Predecessor. For the period from December 12, 1997 to
    April 30, 1998, the Company is referred to as the Trident Predecessor. The
    accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the
    Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
    Securities and Exchange Commission. The information furnished in the
    consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and
    reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
    for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Certain information
    and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
    in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
    condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Although the
    Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information
    presented not misleading, it is suggested that these consolidated financial
    statements be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial
    statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on
    Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended March 31, 1998.

NOTE 1 - THE COMPANY (continued):

    Revenues and operating results for the one month ended April 30, 1998 and
    the five months ended September 30, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of
    the results to be expected for the full year.

    The following unaudited pro forma financial information for the six months
    ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 give effect to the Dura Acquisition as if
    it had occurred at the beginning of the periods. The unaudited pro forma
    information does not purport to represent what the Company's result of
    operations would actually have been if such transaction in fact had occurred
    at such date nor to project the Company's results of future operations (in
    thousands):

    On April 30, 1998, in connection with the Dura Acquisition, Dura and the
    Company entered into a new $402.5 million credit agreement (the "Credit
    Agreement"). The Credit Agreement provided Dura with total revolving credit
    facilities of $225 million, term loans of $100 million, an acquisition
    facility of $30 million and a twelve-month interim loan of $47.5 million.
    The Credit Agreement made available to the Company, as a sub-facility, a $50
    million term loan, a $25 million revolving credit and letter-of-credit
    facility and a $30 million acquisition facility (the "Trident
    Sub-Facility"). The Credit Agreement has a term of five years and borrowings
    bear interest at the lenders reference rate or the Eurocurrency rate. The
    interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement ranged
    from 6.275% to 9.3125% as of September 30, 1998. The Credit Agreement
    contains various restrictive covenants, which limit indebtedness,
    investments, rental obligations and cash dividends. The Credit Agreement
    also requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios including
    minimum liquidity and interest coverage. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit
    Agreement, Dura and certain of its subsidiaries will provide guarantees and
    collateral to support obligations owing under the Trident Sub-Facility; but,
    so long as the Notes remain outstanding, neither the Company nor any of its
    subsidiaries have guaranteed any obligations that are not borrowed pursuant
    to the Trident Sub-Facility. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, an
    event of default by Dura also causes an event of default under the Trident
    Sub-Facility. The Company and Dura were in compliance with the covenants as
    of September 30, 1998. The assets of the Company have been pledged as
    collateral to secure borrowings under the Trident Sub-Facility.

    The Credit Agreement provides the Company with the ability to denominate its
    revolving credit borrowings in foreign currencies. As of September 30, 1998,
    $11.5 million of borrowings were denominated in US dollars, $2.4 million
    were denominated in British pound sterling and $1.2 million were denominated
    in Canadian dollars.

    The Notes were issued on December 12, 1997, concurrent with the FKI
    Acquisition. Interest is payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of
    each year. As further discussed in Note 5, the Notes are guaranteed by
    certain subsidiaries of the Company.

NOTE 4 - ACCOUNTING CHANGES

    Effective April 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
    Comprehensive Income." This statement established standards for reporting
    and display of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income
    reflects the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from
    transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. For
    the Company, comprehensive income represents net income adjusted for foreign
    currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive income was approximately
    $2.9 million for the combined six months ended September 30, 1998 and $8.0
    million for the six months ended September 30, 1997.

    During February 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB")
    issued SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other
    Postretirement Benefits," effective for fiscal years beginning after
    December 31, 1997. SFAS No. 132 revises certain of the disclosure
    requirements, but does not change the measurement or recognition of such
    obligations. The adoption of SFAS No. 132 will result in revised and
    additional disclosures, but will have no effect on the financial position,
    results of operations, or liquidity of the Company.

    In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
    Instruments and Hedging Activities" effective for years beginning after June
    15, 1999. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards
    requiring that every derivative instrument, including certain derivative
    instruments embedded in other contracts, be recorded in the balance sheet as
    either and asset or liability measured at its fair value. SFAS No. 133
    requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently
    in earnings unless specific hedge criteria are met. Special accounting for
    qualifying hedges allow a derivative's gains or losses to offset related
    results on the hedged item in the income statement and requires that a
    company must formally document, designate and assess the effectiveness of
    transactions that receive hedge accounting. The Company has not yet
    quantified the impacts of adopting SFAS No. 133 and has not yet determined
    the timing method of adoption.

NOTE 5 - CONSOLIDATING GUARANTOR AND NON-GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION

    The following consolidating financial information presents balance sheet,
    statement of operations and cash flow information related to the Company's
    businesses. Each Guarantor is a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary
    of Trident Automotive plc and has fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a
    joint and several basis, the Notes. The Company has not presented separate
    financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantors because
    management believes that such information is not material. For presentation
    purposes, the consolidating financial data for the one month ended April 30,
    1998 and the five months ended September 30, 1998 have been combined.
