                               BRC HOLDINGS, INC.
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

1.       The interim consolidated condensed financial statements included herein
         have been prepared by BRC Holdings, Inc. (BRC) (the "Company"), without
         audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
         Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures
         normally included in financial statements have been condensed or
         omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These consolidated
         condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
         consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the
         Company's 1997 annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of
         management, the consolidated condensed financial statements contain all
         adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of
         September 30, 1998 and the results of operations and cash flows for the
         nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. These adjustments
         include recurring accruals and a pro rata portion of certain estimated
         expenses. The results of operations for the nine months ended September
         30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
         for the full year. Management believes that the procedures followed in
         preparing these consolidated condensed financial statements are
         reasonable under the circumstances, but the accuracy of the amounts in
         the financial statements are in some respects dependent upon facts that
         will exist and procedures that will be performed by the Company later
         in the fiscal year.

         On March 3, 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company voted to issue
         a 100% common stock dividend to shareholders of record on March 20,
         1998. The distribution date for the common stock was April 6, 1998. As
         a result, all historical weighted-average shares and EPS data have been
         retroactively restated.

         Revenue Recognition - In October 1997, Statement of Position 97-2,
         Software Revenue Recognition (SOP 97-2) was issued and addresses
         software revenue recognition matters primarily from a conceptual level
         and does not include specific implementation guidance. SOP 97-2
         supersedes SOP 91-1 and is effective for transactions entered into
         during fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. SOP 97-2 was
         adopted by the Company effective January 1, 1998; however, on March 31,
         1998, Statement of Position 98-4, "Deferral of the Effective Date of a
         Provision of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, (SOP 98-4) was
         issued, which defers for one year the effective date of certain
         provisions of SOP 97-2. The Company believes it is currently in
         compliance with SOP 97-2, as amended by SOP 98-4.

         Comprehensive Income - In June 1997, Statement of Financial Accounting
         Standards No. 130, "Comprehensive Income was issued. This statement was
         adopted by the Company effective January 1, 1998. The Company has no
         comprehensive income to report for the periods presented. The Company
         expects to present any future comprehensive income amounts as a
         component of the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders' Equity.

2.       The provision for income tax is based on the estimated annual rate.
         Certain reclassifications of the September 30, 1998 balances between
         current income tax and deferred income tax may be necessary at year end
         to reflect the annual computation of differences between book and tax
         income.

3.       Inventories consist of the following:

         and operations of MIDS, Inc. (MIDS), a Tucson, Arizona-based provider
         of specialized case management and quality measurement software and
         related services for the healthcare industry. MIDS was purchased for

         with the purchase, the Company recorded $4.6 million in goodwill which

         its election business to Election Systems and Software, Inc. ("ES&S")
         and the Sequoia Pacific Systems Division of The Smurfit Packaging

         benefit of ES&S and Sequoia. Under its agreements with ES&S and

         transition periods. In July 1998, the Company received notice from ES&S
         and Sequoia that the transition periods would be concluded in November
         1998 for both facilities. Accordingly, the Company will continue to
         reflect the 


                                       7

         activity of these operations as a discontinued operation through
         November 1998. The Company had no material net assets of discontinued
         operations as of September 30, 1998.

         In June 1998, the Company sold a promissory note representing a portion
         of the proceeds received in connection with the divestiture of its
         election business. The note was sold for $11.2 million and a related
         pre-tax gain of $1.5 million was recorded. This gain was reported net
         of tax as a component of income from discontinued operations for the
         period ended June 30, 1998. In 1998, the Company paid $12.5 million of
         income tax associated with the gain on sale of the election business.

7.       During the first nine months of 1998, the Company repurchased 465,950
         shares of its common stock, in open market transactions, at an average
         price of $15.51 per share. During the first nine months of 1997, the
         Company repurchased 510,000 shares of its common stock, in open market
         transactions, at an average price of $16.76, and 100,000 shares of its
         common stock in a privately negotiated purchase at $16.75 per share.
         During the first nine months of 1998 and 1997, common stock was issued
         from treasury upon exercise of 115,548 and 47,392 employee stock
         options, respectively. The difference between the aggregate option
         exercise proceeds and the Company's basis in the treasury stock of
         $2,000 and $26,000 was charged to retained earnings during the first
         nine months of 1998 and 1997, respectively. In addition, on February
         28, 1998, the Company issued 195,312 shares of common stock from
         treasury in association with the acquisition of MIDS, Inc. The
         difference between the carrying value of the treasury stock and the
         acquisition price of $512,000 was recorded as additional paid-in
         capital. See Note 5. At September 30, 1998, the Company reflected
         treasury stock of $10,160,000.

8.       During 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
         Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share (SFAS 128) which establishes
         standards for computing and presenting earnings per share (EPS). This
         statement requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the
         face of the income statement for entities with complex capital
         structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and
         denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and
         denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes the
         effect of potentially dilutive securities while diluted EPS reflects
         the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other
         contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into or
         resulted in the issuance of common stock. In addition, the statement
         requires restatement of all prior-period EPS data. As such, EPS figures
         for 1997 have been restated.

         The following sets forth the weighted-average number of shares
         outstanding:

         Basic EPS

         Basic EPS data was calculated using the number of weighted-average
         shares outstanding of 14,070,000 and 13,796,000 for the three months
         ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and 14,083,000 and
         14,003,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
         respectively. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the
         weighted-average number of shares outstanding.

9.       On October 19, 1998, the Company signed a definitive Merger Agreement
         with Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. ("ACS") under which the Company
         will be acquired by and merged into a subsidiary of ACS. ACS commenced
         a cash tender offer for approximately 51% of the fully-diluted shares
         of BRC at a price of $19.00 per share. The Merger Agreement also
         provides that subsequent to the consummation of the cash tender offer,
         ACS will acquire all remaining outstanding shares of BRC at $19.00 per
         share in cash. In connection with the tender offer, ACS and the Company
         have filed Schedules 14D-1 and 14D-9, respectively. The merger
         agreement is subject to certain conditions, including regulatory and
         shareholder approvals.

         Subsequently, on November 2, 1998, the Company received notification
         that Matador Capital Management Corporation and certain of its
         affiliates have filed suit against the Company, ACS Acquisition
         Corporation (ACS Acquisition), ACS, and the directors of BRC, making
         certain allegations regarding the negotiation and contents of the
         Merger Agreement and the Company's public disclosure relating thereto.
         Among other relief sought, the plaintiffs seek to enjoin the
         consummation of the tender offer commenced by ACS for 51% of the
         fully-diluted shares of BRC or the consummation of any transaction
         contemplated in the Merger Agreement. The Company intends to vigorously
         defend itself in the lawsuit and does not currently believe that the
         lawsuit will have a material adverse effect on the operations or
         financial condition of the Company.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General Considerations

On October 19, 1998, the Company announced that it has signed a definitive
agreement with Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (ACS) under which BRC will be
acquired by and merged into a subsidiary of ACS. ACS commenced a cash tender
offer for approximately 51% of the fully-diluted shares of BRC at a price of
$19.00 per share. The merger agreement is subject to certain conditions,
including regulatory approvals and approval of the merger by the shareholders of
BRC. Upon satisfaction of these conditions, ACS will acquire all of the
remaining shares of common stock of BRC at a price of $19.00 per share in cash.
Based on the Company's 13.7 million outstanding common shares at September 30,
1998, the gross transaction value for all shares is approximately $261 million.
(See Item 5).

Subsequently, on November 2, 1998, the Company received notification that
Matador Capital Management Corporation and certain of its affiliates have filed
suit in Delaware Chancery Court against BRC, ACS Acquisition Corporation (ACS
Acquisition), ACS and the directors of BRC, making certain allegations regarding
the negotiation and contents of the Merger Agreement among BRC, ACS and ACS
Acquisition and BRC's public disclosures relating thereto. Among other relief
sought, the plaintiffs seek to enjoin the consummation of the tender offer
commenced by ACS for 51% (on a fully-diluted basis) of the outstanding common
stock of BRC or the consummation of any transaction contemplated in the related
Merger Agreement. (See Note 9 to the unaudited consolidated condensed financial
statements and Item 5 hereto).

Statements about the Company's outlook and all other statements in this 10-Q
other than historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking
statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are
subject to a number of uncertainties and factors, many of which are outside the
Company's control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from
such statements. While the Company believes that the assumptions concerning
future events are reasonable, it cautions that there are inherent difficulties
in predicting certain important factors, especially the timing and magnitude of
technological advances; market responses to the Company's product and service
offerings, pricing pressures, results from litigation, the timely development
and acceptance of new products and services, changes in customer preferences,
inventory risks due to shifts in market demand, costs and liabilities associated
with the compliance of the Company-provided computer software and hardware with
the Year 2000 date convention and the successful consummation of the
transactions contemplated in the merger agreement discussed above. Consequently,
the actual results realized by the Company could differ materially from the
statements made herein. Shareholders and all other readers of this Form 10-Q are
cautioned not to place an undue reliance on the forward-looking statements made
herein.

Discontinued Operations

On November 20, 1997, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Business
Records Corporation, consummated the divestiture of its business of providing
goods and services utilized by public authorities in the conduct of elections.
In connection with the divestiture, the Company agreed to operate the Berkeley,
California and Rockford, Illinois facilities for the benefit of the acquirers
for transition periods which are currently expected to end in November 1998.
Accordingly, the Company has continued to reflect the activity of these
operations as a discontinued operation through September 30, 1998. (See Note 6
to the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements).

Revenues from election products and services associated with the Company's
provision of transition services to ES&S and Sequoia constituted approximately
3% of the Company's combined revenues from continuing and discontinued
operations during the third quarter and first nine months of 1998. This compared
to 24% and 19% of total revenues during the third quarter and first nine months
of 1997, respectively.

Acquisitions

In February 1998, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, The Pace Group,
acquired the assets and operations of MIDS, Inc. (MIDS) for $7.2 million. MIDS
is a Tucson, Arizona-based provider of specialized case management and quality
measurement software and related services for the healthcare industry. MIDS had
revenues of approximately $5.4 million in 1997. The purchase price consisted of
$3.4 million in cash and $3.8 million in the Company's common stock. (See Note 5
to the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements.)

In May 1998, a subsidiary of the Company purchased the assets and operations of
The Tenacity Manufacturing Company, (Tenacity) a Cincinnati, Ohio-based producer
of government records management products. Tenacity was purchased for $1.8
million in cash. Tenacity had annual revenues of approximately $2.7 million in
1997. (See Note 5 to the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements.)

Status of Year 2000 Issues

Many currently installed computer systems and software products are coded to
accept only two digit entries in the date code field. As the Year 2000
approaches, these code fields will need to accept four digit entries to
distinguish years beginning with "19" from those beginning with "20". As a
result, computer systems and/or software products used by many of the Company's
customers may need to be upgraded to comply with such Year 2000 requirements.
The Company is currently expending resources to remediate or replace its
products and services as well as its internal use software in order to ensure
those products, services and systems are Year 2000 ready.



                                       11
<PAGE>   15


In 1996, the Company began the process of evaluating the extent of its Year 2000
date convention problems within its software products sold or licensed to
customers and the obligations it may have under software support, outsourcing
and other service contracts with existing customers. Additionally, during 1996
the Company reviewed its internal accounting systems to determine the scope and
extent of the Year 2000 date conversion problem with respect to these systems.
Based on these evaluations, during 1996 and 1997, the Company has dedicated
extensive resources to reprogramming its tax and financial software packages
licensed to government entities and expects to complete the upgrade process with
customers to Year 2000 compliant software by August 1999. The Company has
continued to address Year 2000 issues throughout 1998 by completing all
inventorying, assessment, analysis and high level planning required to remediate
(1) its software products sold to customers, (2) its obligations, if any, under
certain software support, outsourcing or other service contracts and (3) its
internal operational and financial systems. As of September 30, 1998, assuming
the continued availability of labor resources, the Company believes that all
currently known Year 2000 issues which could have a significant effect on the
Company will be addressed by December 31, 1999. The Company's EmStat software
has also undergone extensive reprogramming efforts and installation of a new
Year 2000 compliant version at customer sites is expected to be completed by
April 1999. The Company's dental and vision care softwares are also in varying
stages of reprogramming and the Company expects to offer Year 2000 compliant
versions during 1999. The contracts under which the Company provides customers
with on-site information systems management outline varying degrees of
responsibility for Year 2000 compliant hardware and software, ranging from
financial responsibility for the systems to simply advising on
customer-sponsored Year 2000 projects. The government records management
business is currently updating its records indexing software to a Year 2000
compliant version. Software and hardware will need to be replaced at most
customer sites to become Year 2000 compliant. Internally, the Company upgraded
its accounting systems to Year 2000 compliant software in March 1998, and
expects to complete conversion of peripheral software by March 1999.

With respect to Year 2000 issues relating to third parties with which the
Company has a material relationship, the Company is in the process of obtaining
Year 2000 certification documentation. The Company believes that its key vendors
are addressing Year 2000 issues in a satisfactory manner, however, the Company
can make no assurances that all vendors will be Year 2000 compliant in a timely
fashion. In the event that third parties with which the Company relies upon to
conduct business, such as telephone, electric and other utility providers, are
not Year 2000 compliant in a timely fashion, material adverse conditions could
arise.

Currently, the Company has not developed a contingency plan to address its most
reasonably likely worst-case Year 2000 scenarios. As of September 30, 1998, the
Company believes that its worst-case Year 2000 scenario would involve, at a
minimum, the inability to upgrade certain customers to Year 2000 compliant
versions of its software prior to December 31, 1999 as a result of a potential
labor resource shortage. Based upon the availability of the labor resources to
the Company to address Year 2000 issues to date, the Company believes that


                                       12
<PAGE>   16

adequate labor resources are available to achieve timely completion of its Year
2000 projects. However, no assurances can be made that adequate labor resources
will continue to be available as the Year 2000 approaches.

At this time, and based upon current labor costs and availability of labor
resources, the Company continues to estimate its costs to address Year 2000
issues at $5.5 million. Of this amount, approximately $1.3 million had been
expended as of September 30, 1998.



Three Months Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997

Revenues from continuing operations for the third quarter of 1998 increased $7.6
million, or 29%, over those reported during the third quarter of 1997. The
Company experienced revenue growth in most of its product lines during the third
quarter. Specifically, significant growth was reported by information systems
and services to governmental customers which increased $4.8 million, or 65%,
when compared to the third quarter of 1997. When including revenues associated
with information systems and services provided to health care clients, total
information systems and services increased by $4.1 million, or 25%. Revenues
from the Company's government records management business increased by $1.9
million, or 29%, as compared to the previous year, while consulting services
revenues grew $1.4 million, or 46%. These changes in revenues are discussed in
further detail below.

Information systems and services revenues increased $4.1 million during the
third quarter of 1998 as a result of revenues generated from new on-site systems
management contracts with the cities of Carrollton, Texas, and Riverside,
California. These contracts and additional special project revenues generated
increased revenues from government customers of $4.3 million over the third
quarter of 1997. After adjusting for the mid-quarter 1997 acquisition of MCSI,
this business unit reported third quarter 1998 revenue growth of $0.7 million,
or 88%, over the third quarter of 1997. This increase can be attributed to
growth in the customer base and a broadening of the services provided. These
revenue increases were offset by a decrease in revenues of $0.7 million, or 8%,
from on-site systems management services provided to health care accounts. This
decrease can be attributed to the attrition of such accounts during 1997 and
1996.

Government records management revenues increased $1.9 million, or 29%, during
the third quarter of 1998 when compared to the third quarter of 1997. This
increase is attributed to a growth in customer base and favorable economic
conditions which have generated a significant increase in the number of real
estate transactions required to be recorded by government entities. In addition,
binder sales increased by $0.9 million, or 52%, over the third quarter of 1997
primarily as a result of the acquisition of The Tenacity Manufacturing Company
during the second quarter of 1998. (See Note 5 to the unaudited consolidated
condensed financial statements).

Consulting services revenues increased $1.4 million, or 46%, in the third
quarter of 1998 as compared to the same period last year. This increase is a
result of 


                                       13
<PAGE>   17

the acquisition of MIDS in February of this year which reported third
quarter revenues of $2.1 million. This increase in revenues was partially offset
by a decrease in revenues of The Pace Group due to the completion of several
large, non-recurring consulting engagements in the second half of 1997.

Millennium services revenues were $0.6 million for the third quarter of 1998.
This business unit did not generate significant revenues in 1997 during its
start-up phase. While the Company currently anticipates continued growth in
revenues from millennium services within the next 15 months, there can be no
certainty that potential customers will select the Company's methodology for
addressing their Year 2000 concerns.

In July 1997 the Company sold its title services business which accounted for
other revenues during the second quarter of 1997 of $0.4 million. The Company's
gross margins for the third quarters of 1998 and 1997 were 31% and 28%,
respectively. This increase in margins can be attributed to the government
records management business where significant revenue growth has been achieved
with minimal additional personnel costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 17% of revenues in
the third quarter of 1997 to 18% of revenues during the third quarter of 1998.
This increase can be substantially attributed to additional personnel costs
incurred to enable and support the Company's revenue growth.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997

Revenues from continuing operations for the first nine months of 1998 were $13.9
million, or 18%, greater than those reported during the first nine months of
1997. Year to date information systems and services and government records
management revenues increased $9.0 million, or 19%, and $3.4 million, or 17%,
respectively, when compared to the first nine months of 1997. Millennium
services reported revenues of $2.9 million for the first nine months of 1998,
and MIDS, acquired in February of 1998, contributed $4.8 million in revenues
year to date.

The increase in information systems and services revenues of $9.0 million, or
19%, during the first nine months of 1998, is primarily related to new on-site
systems management contracts and additional special project revenues generated
in the government sector of $8.5 million over the first nine months of 1997. In
addition, the Company's CSI and MCSI business units which were acquired in May
and July, 1997, respectively, reported revenues of $4.8 and $2.1 million,
respectively, during the first nine months of 1998. These additional revenues
were offset by decreased revenues of $5.8 million from on-site systems
management services provided to health care accounts. This decrease can be
attributed to the cancellation of large contracts during 1997 and 1996.

Government records management revenues increased $3.4 million, or 17%, during
the first nine months of 1998 when compared to the first nine months of 1997.
This growth is attributed to additional sales in all products lines and services
of this business as a result of increased real estate transactions associated
with positive economic conditions nationwide coupled with an expanded customer
base. In addition, the Company's binders business unit sales increased in the
first nine months of 1998 by $1.4 million, or 25%, over the first nine months of
1997.

Consulting services revenues increased by $1.5 million, or 14%, in the first
nine 


                                       14
<PAGE>   18

months of 1998 as compared to the same period last year. This increase in
revenues can primarily be attributed to additional revenues of $4.8 million
generated by the Company's acquisition of MIDS in February of this year. This
increase was substantially offset due to the completion of several large,
non-recurring consulting engagements by The Pace Group during 1997.

For the first nine months of 1998, revenues from millennium services were $2.9
million. As previously mentioned, this business unit was in the start-up phase
during 1997 and no significant revenues were generated during that period of
time.

Other revenues associated with the Company's title services business which was
sold in July 1997 accounted for $2.8 million in revenues during the first nine
months of 1997.

The Company's gross margins for the first nine months of 1998 and 1997 were
consistent at 30%. Gross margins in government records management have increased
when compared to the first nine months of 1997 as a result of substantial
revenue growth, as previously discussed, with minimal increase in costs.
However, other product lines, such as technology outsourcing and the
healthcare-related softwares, have reported decreased gross margins when
compared to the first nine months of 1997 as Year 2000 issues with existing
customers are being addressed. It should also be noted that the Company has
experienced a shift from higher margin healthcare technology outsourcing
contracts which terminated in 1997 and 1996 to lower margin services provided by
MCSI and CSI which were acquired during 1997.

Selling, general and administrative expenses remained constant at 19% of
revenues for the first nine months of 1998 and 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 1998, the Company had net working capital (total current assets
minus total current liabilities) of $89.8 million. This represents a $55.0
million increase in working capital since December 31, 1997. This can be
attributed to a $33.2 million increase in cash equivalents and short-term
investments as the Company has shifted from longer term instruments to
short-term investments and generated additional cash reserves of $6.1 million.
During June 1998, the Company received $11.3 million in proceeds associated with
the sale of a promissory note received in connection with the divestiture of the
Company's election business. (See Note 6 to the unaudited consolidated condensed
financial statements). Proceeds from this note contributed to the increase in
short-term investment balances. The $9.4 million increase in accounts receivable
since December 31, 1997, is primarily related to increased customer billings by
the millennium services and government information systems and services business
units as a result of the revenue growth previously discussed. The acquisition of
MIDS and Tenacity also increased accounts receivable balances by $2.3 million.
In addition, the Company reflected a $9.6 million reduction in accrued income
taxes which was primarily related to the payment of taxes associated with the
sale of the elections business. As of September 30, 1998, the Company's total
current assets were 4.9 times total current liabilities.

Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations during the
first nine months of 1998 decreased by $7.8 million when compared to the first
nine months of 1997. This change is primarily due to a decrease in cash provided
from accounts receivable of $11.0 million as balances have increased due to the

Company's revenue growth. In addition, other liabilities have increased in 1998
due to additional compensation-related accruals associated with increased
profits, and increased deferred revenues associated with new customer contracts
where customer invoicing precedes revenue recognition. The change in other
assets in the third quarter of 1998 when compared to the third quarter of 1997
represents an increase in cash used of $1.3 million. This increase can be
attributed to the prepayment of millennium consulting services and increases in
accrued interest receivable. Net cash used in operating activities of
discontinued operations included income taxes paid of $12.5 million in
connection with the gains on divestiture of the election business.

Cash flows provided by investing activities of continuing operations increased
$10.0 million in the first nine months of 1998 when compared to the first nine
months of 1997. As mentioned above, the Company received $11.3 million in
payments from a promissory note received in connection with the divestiture of
the Company's election business. The note was sold for $11.2 million at a gain,
net of taxes and commissions, of $0.8 million. In addition, notes receivable
additions during the first nine months of 1998 decreased $9.9 million when
compared to the first nine months of 1997. This decrease is a result of a shift
away from Company-financed hardware sales to customers. These increases in cash
provided by investing activities have been offset by minor increased capital
expenditures and a reduction in proceeds from installment receivables of $0.5
and $0.4 million, respectively. In addition, net long-term investment activity
resulted in a $0.6 million increase in the use of funds when compared to the
first nine months of 1997.

Cash flows used in financing activities decreased $3.7 million in the first nine
months of 1998 when compared to the first nine months of 1997. During the first
nine months of 1997 the Company purchased $10.2 million in treasury stock,
compared to $7.2 million of such purchases during the first nine months of 1998.
In addition, proceeds from common stock were slightly higher in 1998 by $0.4
million when compared to 1997 while cash used to pay down lease obligations
decreased by $0.3 million.

Due to continuing positive cash flows from existing operations and anticipated
future exercises of stock options, the Company generally foresees experiencing
positive cash flows during the coming year.

The Company is not currently subject to any material indebtedness or aware of
any liabilities which would cause it to believe it will be subject to a
materially adverse long-term liquidity position. Due to the foregoing, and its
working capital position, the Company does not maintain any active lines of
credit.

Item 5. Other Information

On October 19, 1998, the Company announced that it had signed a definitive
agreement with Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (ACS) under which BRC will be
acquired by and merged into a subsidiary of ACS. ACS commenced a cash tender
offer for approximately 51% of the fully-diluted shares of BRC at a price of
$19.00 per share. The merger agreement is subject to certain conditions,
including regulatory approvals and approval of the merger by the shareholders of
BRC. Upon satisfaction of these conditions, ACS will acquire all of the
remaining shares of common stock of BRC at a price of $19.00 per share in cash.
Based on the Company's 13.7 million outstanding common shares, the gross
transaction value for all shares is approximately $261 million as of September
30, 1998.

On October 23, 1998, ACS filed, with the Securities and Exchange Commission, a
Schedule 14d-1, offering to purchase 51%, on a fully-diluted basis, of the
Company's outstanding common stock. Also on October 23, 1998, the Company filed,
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, a Schedule 14d-9 relating to ACS's
offer to purchase the Company's common stock.

Subsequently, on November 2, 1998, the Company received notification that
Matador Capital Management Corporation and certain of its affiliates have filed
suit in Delaware Chancery Court against BRC, ACS Acquisition Corporation (ACS
Acquisition), ACS and the directors of BRC, making certain allegations regarding
the negotiation and contents of a Merger Agreement among BRC, ACS and ACS
Acquisition and BRC's public disclosures relating thereto. Among other relief
sought, the plaintiffs seek to enjoin the consummation of the tender offer
commenced by ACS for 51% (on a fully-diluted basis) of the outstanding common
stock of BRC or the consummation of any transaction contemplated in the related
Merger Agreement. (See Note 9 to the unaudited consolidated condensed financial
statements). In addition, on November 4, 1998, Matador Capital Management
Corporation filed a Schedule 14d-9 with regard to the Company's common stock.
The Company's stockholders are encouraged to review the filings, together with
such amendments thereto as may be filed from time to time, for information

more complete descriptions and other material contained in such Schedules 14d-1
and 14d-9, together with any amendments thereto.
