                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Stockholder
Public Storage, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying combined statements of assets, liabilities and
deficit of the property management and advisory businesses of Public Storage,
Inc. (Operating Companies to be Acquired) as of December 31, 1994 and 1993 and
the related combined statements of operations and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1994.  These financial statements
are the responsibility of management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards 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.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying financial statements of the Operating Companies to be Acquired
were prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in a Form 8-K of Storage
Equities, Inc.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Operating Companies to be
Acquired at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                       OPERATING COMPANIES TO BE ACQUIRED
                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A.   Basis of Presentation

     The financial statements include the property management operations of
     Public Storage Management, Inc. ("PSMI") and Public Storage Commercial
     Properties Group, Inc. ("PSCP"), the advisory business of Public Storage
     Adviser, Inc. ("Adviser") and merchandise sales operations of PSMI
     (collectively "Operating Companies"). PSMI, PSCP and Adviser are
     subsidiaries of Public Storage, Inc. ("PSI"). Under an Agreement and Plan
     of Reorganization dated June 30, 1995, the Operating Companies, along with
     real estate assets owned by PSI (other than its interest in Storage
     Equities, Inc.) ("Real Estate Interests"), would be acquired by Storage
     Equities, Inc. ("SEI"), a California corporation organized as a real estate
     investment trust (the "Merger").

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared from the books and
     records of the Operating Companies and present the assets, liabilities and
     deficit of the Operating Companies as of December 31, 1994 and 1993 and
     March 31, 1995, and the related revenues and expenses for the years ended
     December 31, 1994, 1993, 1992 and the three months ended March 31, 1995 and
     1994.  Accordingly, these statements do not purport to represent the
     financial position or results of operations of PSI or any of its
     subsidiaries.  The Combined Statements of Operations may not necessarily be
     indicative of the revenues and expenses that would have resulted had the
     Operating Companies operated as a stand-alone entity.  Information
     subsequent to December 31, 1994 is unaudited.

     PSMI operated and managed, at March 31, 1995, pursuant to property
     management agreements, 1,074 self-storage mini-warehouses, including 1,014
     facilities owned by SEI, PSI or entities affiliated with PSI. It operated
     all of the United States mini-warehouses operating under the "Public
     Storage" name and all of those in which SEI has an interest.

     PSCP operated and managed, at March 31, 1995, pursuant to property
     management agreements, 45 commercial office buildings and light industrial
     business parks, including 35 facilities owned by SEI, PSI or entities
     affiliated with PSI, which operate under the Public Storage name in the
     United States and all commercial facilities in which SEI has an interest.

     The Adviser acts, pursuant to an advisory contract, as an investment
     advisor to SEI. It advises SEI with respect to its investments and
     administers the daily corporate operations of SEI for an advisory fee (see
     Advisory Contract) and pays the salaries and expenses of the executive
     officers, the acquisition staff of SEI and other corporate overhead,
     including rent.

     PSMI sells merchandise (primarily locks and boxes) to customers and tenants
     at substantially all of the mini-warehouse facilities managed by PSMI.
     These products are ancillary to renting storage space and are provided as a
     convenience to the tenants.

B.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     1.   Method of Accounting.  The financial statements are prepared in
          accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
     2.   Cash and cash equivalents.  Cash and cash equivalents consist of
          demand deposits and cash investments which are highly liquid
          investments with a maturity of three months or less.  Cash is invested
          in commercial paper and US Government securities.
     3.   Depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation expense represents
          depreciation on equipment and is provided on a straight-line basis
          over the estimated useful life of three years.  Amortization expense
          represents amortization of debt issuance costs and is provided on the
          effective interest method over the life of the debt.

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
     4.   Allocated costs.  Included in the accompanying Statements of
          Operations are allocations of expenses for corporate overhead incurred
          by the Operating Companies.  As the Operating Companies have not
          historically operated independent of PSI, the expenses include
          allocations made by PSI to the Operating Companies. In management's
          opinion, the allocation methodology provides a reasonable allocation
          of the costs that were incurred by the Operating Companies.
     5.   Income taxes.  The financial statements exclude the effects of income
          taxes since they reflect a partial presentation (after allocated
          costs).
     6.   Deficit.  Deficit represents the excess of assets over liabilities and
          reflects the effect of net distributions, capital transactions, and
          loans between the Operating Companies and affiliated companies.

C.   Long-term Debt

     During 1992 and 1993, debt of PSMI was extinguished through a series of
     purchases from unaffiliated note holders, resulting in "extraordinary"
     gains from retirement of debt of $3.3 million and $14.4 million in 1992 and
     1993, respectively.

     In November 1993, PSMI issued $75 million in Senior Secured Notes due 2003
     ("Notes"). The Notes bear interest at 7.08%, with interest and principal
     payments due semi-annually.  The Notes are collateralized by cash flow
     rights from the property management agreements for mini-warehouses and
     other assets of PSI, including trademarks and marketable and non-marketable
     securities of affiliates.  The Notes have various restrictive covenants on
     dividends, investments and additional indebtedness. As required by the
     Notes, cash is segregated between the amount which must be invested
     pursuant to the terms of the Notes (restricted cash) and an amount which
     may be used to declare dividends or invested without restriction.
     Restricted funds of $1.1 million and $1.3 million are included in cash as
     of December 31, 1993 and March 31, 1995, respectively.  In addition, the
     Notes contain various financial covenants.  PSMI is in compliance with all
     covenants.

     As of December 31, 1994, the scheduled principal payments of the Notes were
     as follows:  
     <TABLE>

                                  ===========
     </TABLE>

D.   Management Agreements

     The property management agreements generally provide for compensation equal
     to six percent of the gross revenues of the mini-warehouse facilities
     managed, and five percent of the gross revenues of the commercial
     facilities managed. Management fees of $26,835,000, $24,554,000,
     $22,656,000, $6,934,000 and $6,443,000 were earned on properties in which
     PSI and SEI have an interest for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993,
     1992 and for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
     The management agreements, except as noted below, are cancelable by either
     party upon sixty days notice.

     For the property management fees, under the supervision of the property
     owners, PSMI and PSCP coordinate rental policies, rent collections,
     marketing activities, the purchase of equipment and supplies, maintenance
     activity, and the selection and engagement of vendors, suppliers and
     independent contractors. PSMI and PSCP assist and advise the property
     owners in establishing policies for the hire, discharge and supervision of
     employees for the operation of their facilities, including resident
     managers, assistant managers, relief managers and billing and maintenance
     personnel.

                                        9
<PAGE>
 
     For the duration of the management agreements, PSMI grants to the property
     owners a non-exclusive license to use two PSI service marks and related
     designs, including the "Public Storage" name.  Upon termination of the
     management agreement, the property owner would no longer have the right to
     use the service marks and related designs, except as described below.

     In February 1995, the management agreements of sixteen companies (including
     SEI) were amended to revise the termination provision. The management
     agreements, as amended, provide that the agreements with respect to
     properties directly owned by the sixteen companies will expire seven years
     from the date modified, provided that on each anniversary of such
     modification, it shall be automatically extended for one year (thereby
     maintaining a seven year term) unless either party notifies the other that
     the agreement is not being extended. With respect to properties in which
     SEI has an interest, but are not wholly-owned by SEI, the management
     agreements may be terminated upon sixty days notice by SEI and upon seven
     years notice by the Operating Companies. The management agreements of the
     sixteen companies may also be terminated by either party for cause, but if
     terminated by the property owner, for cause, the property owner will retain
     the rights to use the PSI service marks until the scheduled expiration
     date.

     Regardless of the termination provisions, all management agreements with
     PSI affiliated entities are subject to termination upon the sale of the
     facilities.

E.   Advisory Contract

     Pursuant to an advisory contract, the Adviser, for an advisory fee, directs
     SEI, under the supervision of SEI's Board of Directors, with respect to its
     investments and daily corporate operations. The contract provides for the
     monthly payment of advisory fees equal to the sum of (i) 12.75% of SEI's
     adjusted income (as defined, and after reduction for SEI's share of capital
     improvements) per share of SEI common stock on the first 14,989,454 shares
     outstanding and (ii) 6% of adjusted income per share on common shares in
     excess of 14,989,454 of SEI common stock. The advisory contract provides
     that, in computing the advisory fee, adjusted income will be reduced by
     dividends paid on all SEI preferred stock and that the Adviser will also
     receive an amount equal to 6% of such dividends.

     The Adviser is not entitled to its advisory fee with respect to services
     rendered during any quarter in which full cumulative dividends on SEI's
     senior preferred stock have not been paid or declared and funds therefor
     set aside for payment.

     The Adviser is also entitled to a disposition fee equal to 20% of the total
     net realized gain (as defined) from the disposition of SEI's investments.
     Payment of the disposition fees is subject to limitations based on SEI's
     distributions.

     The advisory contract may be terminated at any time by either party upon
     sixty days written notice. Except under certain conditions, upon
     termination, the Adviser generally will be entitled to receive (i) an
     amount equal to the accrued and unpaid portion of the disposition fee, (ii)
     an amount equal to 20% of the total net unrealized gain (as defined), less
     20% of unrealized losses (as defined) and (iii) an amount equal to 15% of
     adjusted income (as defined) from October 1, 1991 to the date of
     termination minus the advisory fee paid from October 1, 1991 to the date of
     termination.

     The Adviser pays the salaries and expenses of the executive officers, the
     acquisition staff of SEI and other corporate overhead, including rent.

F.   Contingencies

     PSI and PSMI have entered into various operating leases including a lease
     for the facilities utilized by personnel of the Operating Companies. Rent
     of $748,000, $725,000, $777,000, $188,000 and $213,000 is included in the
     Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993, and
     1992 and the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively,
     related to these leases.

     Minimum lease payments due under these leases as of December 31, 1994 are:
     <TABLE>

                    <S>      <C>
                    1995     $841,000
                    1996      397,000
                    1997      129,000
                    1998      107,000
                    1999        5,000
     </TABLE>

     In connection with the management of mini-warehouses, funds relating to
     property tax impounds were held on behalf of non-affiliates and affiliates
     in the approximate amounts of $913,000 and $1,000,000, respectively, at
     December 31, 1994 and $891,000 and $1,183,000, respectively, at December
     31, 1993. The impounds are not reflected in the accompanying Statement of
     Assets, Liabilities and Deficit.

     The Operating Companies are involved in various legal proceedings arising
     from the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the
     ultimate outcome of these proceedings will not have a material effect on
     the Operating Companies' financial position or results of operations.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Stockholder
Public Storage, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying combined summaries of historical information
relating to real estate interests to be acquired (the "Combined Summaries") for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994.  The Combined
Summaries are the responsibility of management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on the Combined Summaries based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the Combined Summaries are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the Combined Summaries.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall Combined Summaries presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying Combined Summaries were prepared for the purpose of complying
with rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission for
inclusion in a Form 8-K of Storage Equities, Inc.

In our opinion, the Combined Summaries present fairly the operating revenues and
specified expenses of the real estate interests to be acquired for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

             NOTES TO COMBINED SUMMARIES OF HISTORICAL INFORMATION

                RELATING TO REAL ESTATE INTERESTS TO BE ACQUIRED

A.   Background and Basis for Combination

     The accompanying Combined Summaries of Historical Information Relating to
     Real Estate Interests to be Acquired (the "Combined Summaries") include the
     results of operations for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993, and 1992
     and the three months ended March 31, 1995 for the real estate assets in
     which Storage Equities, Inc. ("SEI") proposes to acquire an interest ("Real
     Estate Interests").

     Under an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated June 30, 1995, the Real
     Estate Interests, along with the Operating Companies of Public Storage,
     Inc. (PSI), would be acquired by SEI.

B.   Real Estate Interests

     SEI is acquiring Real Estate Interests comprised of Real Estate Equity
     Interests and ten notes receivable.  Real Estate Equity Interests include
     equity ownership in sixty-three REITs and partnerships which own 511 mini-
     warehouse and 15 commercial facilities, all operated under the "Public
     Storage" name.

     Specifically, the Real Estate Equity Interests consists of:

     .  Class A, B, C and D shares of finite life REITs.  These shares represent
        between 15% and 30% of the economic interest in each entity;

     .  General and limited partner interests, on average, representing
        approximately 25% of the economic interest in each entity; and

     .  Seven properties, consisting of six mini-warehouses and one business
        park in which a 100% fee interest is being acquired.

     Depreciation expense represents depreciation on the assets of the Real
     Estate Equity Interests in which an interest is being acquired and is
     typically  provided on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life
     of twenty five years.

     The sixty-three REITs and partnerships in which SEI is acquiring an
     interest have the following assets, liabilities, owner's equity and income
     for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 and the three months
     ended March 31, 1995:

C.   Mortgage loans

     Included in the Real Estate Interests are ten notes receivable with an
     aggregate carrying amount of $8,141,000 at December 31, 1994 and which are
     secured by mini-warehouse facilities.  Four of the notes are subject to
     underlying mortgage debt.  Interest income and interest expense are
     included in the Combined Summaries with respect to the notes receivable and
     underlying mortgage debt, respectively.

     The notes receivable have interest rates ranging from 7.0% to 14.5%
     (weighted average of 11.8%) and mature from 1995 to 2013.  The underlying
     mortgages have interest rates ranging from 7.1% to 9.9% (weighted average
     of 7.5%) and are due from 1997 to 2000.

D.   Debt

     SEI will assume approximately $4,807,000 in debt consisting of underlying
     debt related to four of the notes receivable and mortgage debt secured by
     one facility.  The debt bears interest at rates ranging from 7.1% to 9.9%.
     The repayment of principal related to this debt at December 31, 1994 is due
     as follows:

E.   Environmental Matters

     The majority of the Real Estate Equity Interests were developed or acquired
     prior to the time it was customary to conduct environmental assessments.
     However, subsequent to their development or acquisition, many of the
     properties have had environmental assessments completed.  These assessments
     did not indicate the requirement for significant remediation or further
     assessments.

                  PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements were
prepared to reflect the Merger transaction between Storage Equities, Inc.
("SEI") and Public Storage Management, Inc. ("PSMI").  As a condition to closing
the Merger,  the SEI Articles of Incorporation must be amended to increase the
number of authorized shares of,  and reclassify, the outstanding SEI Common
Stock into Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. Prior to the Merger, PSCP, the
Adviser and Real Estate Interests will be combined into PSMI. Upon consummation
of the Merger, (i) PSMI will be merged with and into SEI, which will be the
surviving corporation, (ii) SEI will be renamed "Public Storage, Inc.," and
(iii) the capital stock of PSMI will be converted into an aggregate of
30,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 7,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock,
subject to post closing adjustment.

Immediately following the Merger,  SEI will own the Operating Companies and the
Real Estate Interests ,  which include (1) the "Public Storage" name,  (2) seven
wholly owned properties, (3) all inclusive deeds of trust secured by ten mini-
warehouses, (4) general and limited partnership interests in 47 limited
partnerships owning an aggregate of 286 mini-warehouses and one commercial
property,  (5) equity interests in 16 REITs which, exclusive of SEI's
facilities, own an aggregate of 219 mini-warehouses and 13 commercial
properties,  (6) property management contracts,  exclusive of SEI's facilities,
for 652 mini-warehouses and 29 commercial properties (611 of which collectively
are owned by entities affiliated with PSI),  and (7) a 95% economic interest in
a merchandise company which currently sells locks and boxes to PSI's mini-
warehouse tenants and others.  

In addition to adjustments to reflect the proposed Merger,  pro forma
adjustments were made to reflect the following transactions:

     ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED AND COMMON STOCK:

      .  On February 15,  1994,  SEI issued 5,484,000 shares of Common Stock in
         a public offering.  The net offering proceeds were approximately $76.5
         million, which combined with the use of cash reserves were used to
         repay debt, acquire real estate facilities, acquire mortgage notes
         receivable and acquire additional minority interests.

      .  On June 30, 1994,  SEI issued 1,200,000 shares of Adjustable Rate
         Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series C (the "Series C Preferred Stock").
         The aggregate net offering proceeds of the offering ($28.9 million)
         were used to retire bank borrowings (borrowings which were used
         primarily to acquire real estate facilities and minority interests in
         real estate partnerships).

      .  On September 1, 1994,  SEI issued 1,200,000 shares of 9.5% Cumulative
         Preferred Stock, Series D (the "Series D Preferred Stock").  The
         aggregate net offering proceeds of the offering ($29.0 million) were
         used to acquire real estate facilities and minority interests in real
         estate partnerships.

      .  On November 25, 1994,  SEI issued 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock in a
         public offering.  The offering provided net proceeds of approximately
         $33.8 million, which were utilized to repay borrowings on SEI's credit
         facilities (borrowings which were used to fund the acquisition of real
         estate facilities,  minority interests and the cash portion of the PSP
         VIII merger, see below).

      .  On February 1, 1995, SEI issued 2,195,000 shares of 10% Cumulative
         Preferred Stock, Series E (the "Series E Preferred Stock").  The
         aggregate net offering proceeds of $52.9 million were used to acquire
         real estate facilities, minority interests in real estate partnerships
         and retire bank borrowings (borrowings which were used to acquire real
         estate facilities).

      .  On May 3, 1995, SEI issued 2,300,000 shares of 9.75% Cumulative
         Preferred Stock, Series F (the "Series F Preferred Stock").  The
         aggregate net offering proceeds of $55.6 million were used to acquire
         real estate facilities, minority interests in real estate partnerships
         and retire bank borrowings (borrowings which were used to acquire real
         estate facilities).

      .  On May 31, 1995, SEI issued 5,482,200 shares of Common Stock in a
         public offering.  The aggregate net offering proceeds of $82.0 million
         were used to acquire real estate facilities.

     MERGERS:

      .  On September 30, 1994,  SEI completed a merger transaction with Public
         Storage Properties VIII, Inc. ("PSP VIII")  whereby SEI acquired all of
         the outstanding shares of PSP VIII's common stock for an aggregate cost
         of $55,839,000,  consisting of the issuance of 2,593,914 shares of SEI
         Common Stock and $17,341,000 in cash.

      .  On February 28,  1995,  SEI completed a merger transaction with Public
         Storage Properties VI, Inc. ("PSP VI") whereby SEI acquired all of the
         outstanding shares of PSP VI's common stock for an aggregate cost of
         $65,343,000, consisting of the issuance of 3,147,015 shares of SEI
         Common Stock and $21,427,000 in cash.

      .  On June 30,  1995,  SEI  completed a merger transaction with Public
         Storage Properties VII, Inc. ("PSP VII") whereby SEI acquired all of
         the outstanding shares of PSP VII's common stock for an aggregate cost
         of $72,128,000 consisting of the issuance of approximately 3,620,543
         shares of SEI Common Stock and $14,426,000 in cash.

The pro forma consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 1995 has been prepared to
reflect (i) the issuance and utilization of the net offering proceeds of the
Preferred and Common Stock issued subsequent to March 31, 1995, (ii) the merger
transaction with PSP VII,  and (iii)  the proposed Merger with PSMI.

The pro forma consolidated statement of income for the three months ended March
31, 1995 has been prepared assuming (i) the issuance of Preferred and Common
Stock and the utilization of the proceeds therefrom,  (ii) the merger
transactions with PSP VI and PSP VII,  and (iii) the proposed Merger, as if all
such transactions were completed at the beginning of the period.  The pro forma
consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1994 has been
prepared assuming (i) the issuance of the Preferred and Common Stock and the
utilization of the proceeds therefrom,  (ii) the merger transactions with PSP
VIII, PSP VI and PSP VII, and (iii) the proposed Merger,  as if all such
transactions were completed on January 1, 1994.

The pro forma consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended
March 31, 1995 and year ended December 31, 1994 have been prepared on the same
basis as the pro forma consolidated statement of income for the same period.

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and upon certain
assumptions as set forth in the notes to the pro forma consolidated financial
statements that SEI believes are reasonable in the circumstances.  The pro forma
condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be
read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of
SEI,  the combined financial statements of the "Operating Companies," and the
combined summaries of historical information relating to the operating revenues
and specified expenses of "Real Estate Interests."  The following pro forma
consolidated financial statements do not purport to represent what SEI's results
of operations would actually have been if the transactions in fact had occurred
at the beginning of the respective periods or to project SEI's results of
operations for any future date or period.

     The pro forma adjustment to real estate facilities includes the pending
     acquisition of real estate facilities with an aggregate cost of
     approximately $111.8 million. SEI is currently in the process of seeking
     the approval of the limited partners of several limited partnerships to
     sell the partnerships' real estate facilities to SEI for cash, the
     cancellation of mortgage debt owed to SEI and the assumption of mortgage
     debt secured by the facilities. There is no assurance that such
     transactions will be approved by the limited partners of each of the
     partnerships and therefore consummated; however, SEI believes, based on
     past experience, that the approval of the limited partners is probable.

2. PSP VII Merger (the "PSP VII Merger")
   -------------------------------------

   On June 14,  1995,  the shareholders of SEI and PSP VII approved the merger
   between each of the corporations.  Pursuant to the PSP VII Merger,  on June
   30, 1995,  PSP VII was merged with and into SEI,  and the outstanding PSP VII
   common stock (3,806,491 shares) were converted into an aggregate of
   approximately (i) 3,620,543 shares of SEI Common and (ii) $14,426,000 in
   cash.

   The PSP VII Merger has been accounted for using the purchase method of
   accounting and the total purchase cost has been allocated to the acquired net
   assets; first to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and
   liabilities of PSP7 based upon their respective fair values, and the
   remainder, if any, will be allocated to excess of purchase cost over book
   value of assets acquired. The aggregate purchase cost to be paid to the
   shareholders of PSP VII has been determined to be the sum of (1) the fair
   market value of PSP VII's real estate assets, (2) the estimated book value of
   PSP VII's non-real estate assets as of March 31, 1995 less (3) PSP VII's
   estimated liabilities as of March 31, 1995, including an estimated adjustment
   for potential environmental matters. In addition, concurrent with the PSP VII
   Merger, PSP VII's outstanding Series D common stock was repurchased and
   retired. The aggregate purchase cost and its preliminary allocation to the
   historical assets and liabilities is as follows:

issuance of SEI Common Stock ($57,702,000, as determined using a closing price

    The Merger will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and
    the total purchase cost will be allocated to the acquired net assets; first
    to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities acquired
    based upon their respective fair values, and the remainder will be allocated

    completion of the Merger, the outstanding shares of PSMI capital stock will
    be converted into an aggregate of 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock and
    7,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, subject to adjustment, and SEI
    will be renamed "Public Storage, Inc."

    the Real Estate Interests, which include (1) the "Public Storage" name, (2)
    seven wholly owned properties, (3) all inclusive deeds of trust secured by
    ten mini-warehouses, (4) general and limited partnership interests in 47
    limited partnerships owning an aggregate of 286 mini-warehouses and one
    commercial property, (5) equity interests in 16 REITs which, exclusive of

1.  Issuance of Preferred and Common Stock
    --------------------------------------

    During 1994 and 1995, SEI issued shares of both its Preferred and Common
    Stock as follows:

       .  On February 15,  1994,  SEI issued 5,484,000 shares of Common Stock in
          a public offering.  The net offering proceeds $76.5 million were used
          to repay debt, to acquire real estate facilities,  to acquire
          mortgage notes receivable and to acquire additional minority
          interests.

       .  On June 30, 1994,  SEI issued 1,200,000 shares of Adjustable Rate
          Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series C (the "Series C Preferred Stock").
          The aggregate net offering proceeds of the offering ($28.9 million)
          were used to retire bank borrowings (borrowings which were used
          primarily to acquire real estate facilities and minority interests in
          real estate partnerships).

       .  On September 1, 1994,  SEI issued 1,200,000 shares of 9.5% Cumulative
          Preferred Stock, Series D (the "Series D Preferred Stock").  The
          aggregate net offering proceeds ($29.0 million) were used to acquire
          real estate facilities and minority interests in real estate
          partnerships.

       .  On November 25, 1994,  SEI issued 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock
          pursuant to a public offering.  The aggregate offering proceeds ($33.8
          million) were used to repay borrowings on SEI's credit facilities
          (borrowings which were used to fund the acquisition of real estate
          facilities,  minority interests and the cash portion of the PSP VIII
          merger, see Note 2 below).

       .  On February 1, 1995, SEI issued 2,195,000 shares of 10% Cumulative
          Preferred Stock, Series E (the "Series E Preferred Stock").  The
          aggregate net offering proceeds ($52.9 million) were used to acquire
          real estate facilities, minority interests in real estate partnerships
          and retire bank borrowings (borrowings which were used to acquire real
          estate facilities).

       .  On May 3, 1995, SEI issued 2,300,000 shares of 9.75% Cumulative
          Preferred Stock, Series F (the "Series F Preferred Stock").  The
          aggregate net offering proceeds( $55.6 million) were used to repay
          borrowings on SEI's credit facilities (borrowings which were used to
          fund the acquisition of real estate facilities,  minority interests
          and the cash portion of the PSP VI merger).

       .  On May 31, 1995,  SEI issued 5,482,200 shares of Common Stock pursuant
          to a public offering.  The aggregate net offering proceeds were $82.0
          million, a portion of which has been utilized to repay borrowings on
          SEI's credit facilities (borrowings which were used to fund the
          acquisition of real estate facilities,   and the cash portion of the
          PSP VII merger).  The remaining proceeds will be utilized to acquire
          additional real estate facilities and minority interests.   Currently
          pending,  are the acquisition of real estate facilities with an
          aggregate acquisition cost of $111.8 million,  consisting of the
          cancellation of $14.4 million of mortgage notes receivable,  the
          assumption of $44.7 million of mortgage notes payable,  and cash
          totaling $52.7 million.  In addition,  SEI has commenced a cash tender
          offer to acquire limited partnership units in one of the consolidated
          PS Partnerships.  SEI estimates that it will acquire approximately $12
          million of units through the cash tender offer.  The effect of these
          pending acquisitions have been included in the following pro forma
          adjustments.

    The following pro forma adjustments have been made to the pro forma
    consolidated statements of income to reflect the above uses (the acquisition
    of real estate facilities,  minority interests and the repayment of bank
    borrowings) of the proceeds as if the transactions were completed as of
    January 1, 1994:

     recognized interest income during         $ (576,000)         $(4,315,000)

     discounts totaling $40,000 in 1995
     and $693,000 in 1994)
  
   . Cost of operations has been

   . Interest expense has been
     increased (decreased) to reflect
     the following:
         Interest expense was decreased to
         eliminate the historical interest
         expense related to the pay down         $ (293,000)         $(1,097,000)

         Mortgage notes payable were
         assumed in connection with the
         acquisition of the real estate
         facilities.  An adjustment was           1,129,000            4,801,000
         made to reflect the interest
         expense as if the notes were
         assumed at the beginning of the
         period.
  
         SEI typically uses its bank line
         of credit to fund the cash
         portion of real estate
         acquisitions and subsequently
         repays the borrowings with the
         net proceeds of equity offerings.
         In Note 2 below,  a pro forma
         adjustment has been made to

2. REIT Mergers
   ------------

   During 1994 and 1995,  SEI completed merger transactions with PSP VIII
   (September 30,  1994),  PSP VI (February 28, 1995),  and PSP VII (June 30,
   1995) (collectively the "PSP REITs").   The following pro forma adjustments
   have been made assuming the merger transactions with the PSP REITs were
   completed at the beginning of the year ended December 31, 1994:

     Stock is adjustable quarterly and is equal to the highest of the three
     separate indices as published by the Federal Reserve Board, multiplied by
     110%. However, the dividend rate will not be less than 6.75% per annum nor

     ended December 31, 1994. If the dividend rate used was 10.75% per annum,

   of the amount of the underlying
   historical equity in net assets of

      minority interest in income, loss on early extinguishment of debt and gain
      on disposition of real estate plus fixed charges (other than preferred
      stock dividends) and less the portion of minority interest in income for
      those consolidated minority interests which had no fixed charges during
      the period. Fixed charges and preferred stock dividends consist of
      interest expense and the dividend requirements of SEI's Series A, Series
      B, Series C, Series D, Series E, Series F and Convertible Preferred Stock.

1.  Issuance of Preferred and Common Stock
    --------------------------------------

    During 1994 and 1995,  SEI issued shares of both its Preferred and Common
    Stock (See Note 1 to the Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Income).

    Pro forma adjustments have been made to the pro forma consolidated
    statements of income to reflect the uses of the proceeds as if the
    transactions were completed at the beginning of the year ended December 31,
    1994.  Similarly,  the following pro forma adjustments were made to reflect
    the effect on net cash provided by operating activities:

    During 1994 and 1995, SEI completed merger transactions with PSP VIII
    (September 30, 1994), PSP VI (February 28, 1995), and PSP VII (June 30,
    1995) (collectively the "PSP REITs").  The following pro forma adjustments
    have been made assuming the merger transactions with the PSP REITs were

5.  Funds from operations:
    ----------------------

    Funds from operations ("FFO") means net income (loss) (computed in
    accordance with general accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")) before 
    (i) loss on early extinguishment of debt (ii) minority interest in income
    and (iii) gain/loss on disposition of real estate, adjusted as follows: 
    (i) plus depreciation and amortization (including SEI's pro-rata share of
    depreciation and amortization of unconsolidated equity interests and
    amortization of assets acquired in the Merger), and (ii) less FFO
    attributable to minority interests. FFO is a supplemental performance
    measure for equity REITs used by industry analysts. FFO does not take into
    consideration principal payments on debt, capital improvements,
    distributions and other obligations of SEI. Accordingly, FFO is not a
    substitute for SEI's net cash provided by operating activities or net income
    as a measure of SEI's liquidity or operating performance.

SEI Common Shares, or pay a stock dividend or other stock distribution in SEI
Common Shares, or otherwise change the SEI Common Shares into, or exchange SEI
Common Shares for, any other securities (whether pursuant to or as part of a
merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation,
reorganization or liquidation of SEI as a result of which the SEI Shareholders
receive cash, stock or other property in exchange for, or in connection with,
their SEI Shares (a "BUSINESS COMBINATION")), or make any other dividend or
distribution (other than cash) on the SEI Common Shares, then the number of SEI
Shares will be appropriately adjusted to reflect such split, combination,
dividend, distribution, Business Combination or change.

          (c) The PSMI Shares to be converted into SEI Shares pursuant to this
Section 4.1 shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and retired and
shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate or certificates
representing any such PSMI Shares (the "CERTIFICATES") shall thereafter cease to
have any rights with respect to such PSMI Shares, except the right to receive
for each of the PSMI Shares, upon the surrender of such Certificate in
accordance with Section 4.4, the SEI Shares specified above (subject to the
provisions of Section 4.8).

     4.2. POST-CLOSING ADJUSTMENT

          (a) For purposes of this Agreement and this Section 4.2 (i)
"VALUATION" shall mean the value of PSI Real Estate Investments, as valued by
Arthur Andersen & Co. LLP in its report dated June 13, 1995 (the "ORIGINAL AA
REPORT") or in the "Updated AA Report" (as defined in Section 4.2(b)(i)(A)) and
(ii) "PSI EQUITY ADJUSTMENT" shall mean the difference between (a) the book
value of the combined assets (other than the PSI Real Estate Investments, fee
interests in seven properties and SEI Common Shares) of the PSI Entities less
their liabilities, determined on an accrual basis as of the Closing Date, and
(b) the negative amount of $64,503,000, representing the book value of Notes
Receivable Secured by AITDS as of December 31, 1994, less (i) the book value of
Mortgage Notes Payable as of December 31, 1994, and less (ii) $68,000,000
principal amount of PSMI Senior Secured Notes Payable, all determined on an
accrual basis. The PSI Equity Adjustment and the number of SEI Common Shares
owned by the PSI Entities on the Closing Date will be reflected in a report by
Ernst & Young LLP ("EY REPORT").

          (b) The number of SEI Common Shares issuable in the Merger shall be
subject to adjustment as follows:

               (i) First, the number of SEI Common Shares issuable in the Merger
          shall be adjusted as follows:

                    (A) Within 60 days following the Closing Date, SEI shall
          cause Arthur Andersen & Co. LLP to deliver an updated report (the
          "UPDATED AA REPORT") to the PSMI Shareholders and to SEI.  The Updated
          AA Report shall (i) be prepared in a manner consistent with the
          methodology used in preparing the Original AA Report, and (ii) value
          only the PSI Real Estate Investments in existence at the Closing Date
          that were not in existence at December 31, 1994.

                    (B) SEI shall promptly issue a number of additional SEI
          Common Shares obtained by dividing the amount of the valuation in the
          Updated AA Report by the Market Value as of the Closing Date.  Such
          additional shares shall be allocated among the PSMI Shareholders in
          such proportions as they shall agree.

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 
               (ii) Second, following any adjustment to the number of SEI Common
          Shares in Section 4.2(b)(i), the number of SEI Common Shares issuable
          in the Merger shall be subject to further adjustment as follows:

                    (A) Within 60 days following the Closing Date, SEI shall
          cause Ernst & Young LLP to deliver the EY Report to the PSMI
          Shareholders and to SEI.

                    (B) If the EY Report reflects a PSI Equity Adjustment in an
          amount less than zero, Hughes shall be required to return to SEI that
          number of SEI Common Shares determined by dividing the amount of such
          deficiency by the Market Value as of the Closing Date.  If the EY
          Report reflects a PSI Equity Adjustment in an amount greater than
          zero, SEI shall promptly issue such number of additional SEI Common
          Shares obtained by dividing the amount of such excess by the Market
          Value as of the Closing Date.  Such additional shares shall be
          allocated among the PSMI Shareholders in such proportions as they
          shall agree.

               (iii)  The amount of the valuation in the Updated AA Report under
          Section 4.2(b)(i) shall be offset by the amount of any deficiency
          under Section 4.2(b)(ii).

               (iv) Third, following any adjustment to the number of SEI Common
          Shares in Sections 4.2(b)(i) and 4.2(b)(ii), SEI shall promptly issue
          a number of SEI Common Shares equal to the number of SEI Common Shares
          reflected in the EY Report.  Such additional shares shall be allocated
          among the PSMI Shareholders in such proportions as they shall agree.

     4.3. SEI SHARES UNAFFECTED

          The Merger shall effect no change in any of the outstanding SEI Common
Shares or SEI Preferred Shares and no outstanding SEI Common Shares or SEI
Preferred Shares shall be converted or exchanged as a result of the Merger, and
no securities shall be issuable with respect thereto.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any SEI Common Shares owned by any PSI Entity at the Effective Time
shall be cancelled and retired and SEI Common Shares shall be issuable therefor
as provided in Section 4.2(b)(iv).

     4.4. SURRENDER OF CERTIFICATES

          Subject to the provisions of Section 4.8, at the Closing, PSMI shall
cause each holder of PSMI Shares to surrender the Certificates representing the
PSMI shares to SEI and such holders shall be entitled to receive in exchange
therefor certificates representing the number and class of SEI Shares into which
such PSMI Shares shall be converted pursuant to Section 4.1.

                                      -9-
<PAGE>
 
     4.5. FRACTIONAL SHARES

          Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement, no
fractional SEI Shares and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence
of ownership thereof, will be issued in the Merger.  In lieu of any such
fractional share interests, each holder of PSMI Shares who would otherwise be
entitled to such fractional share will, upon surrender of Certificates
representing such PSMI Shares, receive a whole SEI Share if such fractional
share to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled is .5 of an SEI
Share or more, and such fractional share shall be disregarded if it represents
less than .5 of an SEI Share.

     4.6. TRANSFER OF SHARES

          No transfers of PSMI Shares shall be made on the stock transfer books
of PSMI after the close of business on the day prior to the Closing.

     4.7. LOST, STOLEN OR DESTROYED CERTIFICATES

          If 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 the Surviving Corporation, the
posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as the Surviving
Corporation may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against
it with respect to such Certificate, the Surviving Corporation will issue in
exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate SEI Shares deliverable
in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

     4.8. INDEMNIFICATION SHARES; CLAIMS AGAINST THE ESCROW

          (a) At the Closing, the SEI Class B Shares (the "INDEMNIFICATION
SHARES") shall be deposited in escrow with Wells Fargo Bank, as escrow agent, or
such other party as may be agreed upon by the parties prior to Closing (the
"INDEMNIFICATION ESCROW AGENT"), to be held and administered in accordance with
the terms and conditions of an Indemnification Escrow Agreement (the
"INDEMNIFICATION ESCROW AGREEMENT").  The Indemnification Shares shall be
registered in the name of the PSMI Shareholders owning such shares and shall be
accompanied by stock powers endorsed in blank.

          SEI shall be entitled to recover from the Indemnification Shares the
full dollar amount of any Damages that may be suffered by SEI by reason of (i)
any breach of representation or warranty made by PSI or PSMI in Article 5, (ii)
any breach by PSI or PSMI of any covenant or agreement on its part contained in
this Agreement, (iii) any liability or out-of-pocket expenses suffered by SEI in
its capacity as general partner of any of the Partnerships to the extent such
liability or expense arises out of facts or circumstances in existence prior to
the Closing Date or (iv) any liability for Taxes assessed against SEI (including
penalties and interest and including interest payable pursuant to Section
852(e)(3) of the Code) as successor to PSMI and the other PSI Entities
(irrespective of which party is primarily liable under the laws

                                      -10-
<PAGE>
 
of the applicable Governmental Body) including liabilities resulting from a
determination by an applicable Governmental Body that the spin-off of any of the
Excluded Companies does not qualify under Section 355(a)(1) of the Code.  No
claims for indemnification hereunder shall be made by SEI until Damages (arising
from a single claim or in the aggregate from multiple claims) equal or exceed
$100,000, in which case the full dollar amount of any Damages shall be
recoverable.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, SEI shall not be entitled to
indemnification or to seek Damages for any liability with respect to which SEI
would have been obligated to indemnify any PSI Entity, if such liability had
arisen prior to the Effective Time.

          (b) For purposes of this Section 4.8, the "INDEMNIFICATION PERIOD"
shall begin as of the Closing Date and shall continue through the third
anniversary thereof.  Claims for Damages may only be made from the
Indemnification Shares.  Nevertheless, any covenant, agreement, representation
or warranty in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section
4.8 shall survive the time at which it would otherwise terminate if written
notice of the inaccuracy or breach thereof specifying in reasonable detail the
Damages (including the amount thereof) giving rise to such right to indemnity,
shall have been delivered to the PSMI Shareholders prior to such time.

          At the termination of the Indemnification Period, Indemnification
Shares not required to reimburse SEI for any Damages which constitute an
indemnifiable claim, or which are not pending determination as an
indemnification claim, shall be returned by the Indemnification Escrow Agent to
the PSMI Shareholders owning such shares and SEI's rights to indemnification
shall terminate except as otherwise expressly set forth herein.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, SEI shall be entitled to continuing indemnification from Hughes
with respect to (A) the matters set forth in (a)(iv) above or any breach of
representation or warranty made by PSI and PSMI in Section 5.10, which
indemnification obligation shall continue until the expiration of the applicable
statutory period of limitations under the Code, and (B) the matters set forth in
(a)(iii) above or any breach of representation or warranty made by PSI or PSMI
in Section 5.16, which indemnification obligation shall continue through the
fifth anniversary of the Closing Date.  Such continuing right to indemnification
beyond the Indemnification Period (under either (A) or (B) hereof) shall be
limited to the recovery of Damages in the amount of the Indemnification Shares.

          (c) Notwithstanding the escrow of the Indemnification Shares, any
dividends or other distributions declared and paid on such shares shall continue
to be paid by SEI to the PSMI Shareholders owning such shares.  Any securities
received by the Indemnification Escrow Agent in respect of any Indemnification
Shares held in escrow as a result of a stock split or combination of SEI Class B
Shares, payment of a stock dividend or other stock distribution in or on SEI
Class B Shares, or change of SEI Class B Shares into any other securities
pursuant to or as part of a Business Combination or otherwise, shall be held by
the Indemnification Escrow Agent as, and shall be included within the definition
of Indemnification Shares.  Indemnification procedures shall be as stipulated in
the Indemnification Escrow Agreement.

                                      -11-
<PAGE>
 
          (d) For purposes of this Section 4.8, the satisfaction of any Damages
owed hereunder shall be made (i) during the Indemnification Period by delivery
by the Indemnification Escrow Agent to SEI of that number of Indemnification
Shares calculated by dividing the dollar amount of any Damages by the then
Market Value of the SEI Common Shares after applying thereto the percentage
discount attributable to the SEI Class B Shares for purposes of determining the
aggregate purchase price and reducing such discount by 1/84th thereof for each
calendar month that has elapsed from the Closing Date, and (ii) after the
Indemnification Period by delivery by Hughes of (A) that number of
Indemnification Shares calculated in accordance with Section 4.8(d)(i), (B) that
number of SEI Common Shares with a Market Value equal to any Damages or (C) cash
in an amount equal to any Damages.  Any Indemnification Shares returned to SEI
hereunder shall be treated, to the extent permitted by law, by the PSMI
Shareholders and SEI as a purchase price adjustment.

5.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PSI AND PSMI

     Except as set forth on the PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement, PSI and PSMI
hereby represent and warrant to SEI that as of the date hereof:

     5.1. ORGANIZATION AND RELATED MATTERS

          Each PSI Entity is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the State of California and has all
requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its
properties, and to carry on its business as now conducted and proposed by such
PSI Entity to be conducted; and each of PSI and PSMI has all requisite corporate
power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry out the provisions
of this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.  Each PSI
Entity is duly qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the
property owned, leased, managed or operated by it or the nature of the business
conducted by it makes such qualification necessary and where the failure to be
so qualified has or would be reasonably expected (so far as can be foreseen at
the time) to have a material adverse effect on the business, properties,
operations, condition (financial or other) or prospects of the PSI Entities,
considered as a single enterprise (a "PSI ENTITIES MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT").
True and correct copies of each PSI Entity's Articles of Incorporation and
Bylaws have been made available to SEI.

     5.2. OWNERSHIP INTERESTS

          The PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement sets forth a true and complete list,
including the name and jurisdiction of organization, of each joint venture,
general partnership and limited partnership of which each PSI Entity is,
directly or indirectly, a partner (a "PARTNERSHIP") and of each corporation,
association, trust or other entity in which any PSI Entity holds, directly or
indirectly, any capital stock or other equity or ownership or proprietary
interest, and in each such case the nature and extent of its ownership or other
interest therein.  The partnership agreements for each Partnership are listed in
the PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement and true and correct copies have been made
available to SEI.  Each PSI Entity owns the percentages of each

                                      -12-
<PAGE>
 
class of equity interest of each Partnership as set forth in the PSI/PSMI
Disclosure Statement and its respective Partnership agreement, free and clear of
all restrictions, liens, security interests, charges, encumbrances and interests
of third parties.  With respect to such Partnerships, each PSI Entity's rights
and interests as a partner as identified in the respective Partnership
agreements are unimpaired and in full force and effect.  Each PSI Entity owns
the capital stock or other interest of each such corporation, association, trust
or other entity as set forth in the PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement, free and
clear of all restrictions, liens, security interests, charges, encumbrances and
interests of third parties.

     5.3. AUTHORITY

          This Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby (including the Restructure) have been approved by the Board of Directors
and all of the shareholders of each of PSI and PSMI and have been duly
authorized by all other necessary corporate action on the part of PSI and PSMI.
This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer
of each of PSI and PSMI and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of each of
PSI and PSMI, enforceable against PSI and PSMI in accordance with its terms,
except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium and other similar laws of general application that may affect the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles.

     5.4. CAPITAL STOCK

          Following the Restructure and immediately prior to the Effective Time,
(i) the authorized and outstanding capital stock of PSMI will be as set forth in
the PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement, (ii) all outstanding PSMI Shares will be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (iii) no class of
capital stock of PSMI will be entitled to preemptive or cumulative voting
rights, (iv) there will be no outstanding options, warrants, calls, rights,
commitments or any other agreements of any character to which PSMI is a party or
by which it may be bound, requiring it to issue, transfer, sell, purchase,
redeem or acquire any shares of capital stock or any securities or rights
convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the right to subscribe for or
acquire any shares of capital stock, and (v) no Person will have any right to
require PSMI to repurchase or otherwise acquire any of such Person's outstanding
securities.

     5.5. LITIGATION

          There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings
(adjudicatory, rulemaking or otherwise) pending or, to the knowledge of PSI or
PSMI, threatened against any PSI Entity (or any Employee Plan or Benefit
Arrangement), or any property (including intellectual property) of any PSI
Entity, in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any
Governmental Body, except actions, suits, investigations or proceedings that, in
the aggregate, do not have and would not be reasonably expected (so far as can
be foreseen at the time) to have (a) a PSI Entities Material Adverse Effect or
(b) a material adverse effect on the ability of PSI and PSMI to perform their
obligations under this Agreement.  No PSI

                                      -13-
<PAGE>
 
Entity is subject to any judgment, decree, injunction, rule or order of any
court, Governmental Body or arbitrator which prohibits or restricts the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or would reasonably be
expected to have (so far as can be foreseen at the time) a PSI Entities Material
Adverse Effect.

     5.6. NO VIOLATION OR CONFLICT

          No PSI Entity is in violation of any term of (a) its charter, bylaws
or other organizational documents, (b) any Material Agreement, (c) any
applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation of any Governmental Body, or (d)
any applicable order, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or
Governmental Body, except, as to subsections (a) through (d) of this Section,
where such violation, individually or in the aggregate, does not have and would
not be reasonably expected (so far as can be foreseen at the time) to have a PSI
Entities Material Adverse Effect or a material adverse effect on the ability of
PSI and PSMI to perform their obligations under this Agreement.  The execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement by PSI and PSMI and of the
transactions contemplated hereby (including the Restructure) will not result in
any violation of or conflict with, constitute a default under, or require any
consent under any term of the charter or bylaws of PSI or PSMI or any Material
Agreement, instrument, permit, license, law, ordinance, rule, regulation, order,
judgment or decree to which any PSI Entity is a party or to which any of its
material assets are subject, or result in the creation of (or impose any
obligation on any PSI Entity to create) any mortgage, lien, charge, security
interest or other encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of any PSI
Entity pursuant to any such term, except where such violation, conflict or
default, or the failure to obtain such consent or the creation of such
encumbrances, individually or in the aggregate, does not have and would not be
reasonably expected (so far as can be foreseen at the time) to have a PSI
Entities Material Adverse Effect or a material adverse effect on the ability of
PSI or PSMI to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

     5.7. COMPENSATION

          The PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement includes a true and accurate
statement of the present and proposed annual salaries for officers of PSI
Entities who will become officers of the Surviving Corporation.

     5.8. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

          (a) The PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement sets forth a true and complete
list of all the following: (i) each "employee benefit plan," as such term is
defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA (each an "EMPLOYEE PLAN"), and (ii) each other
plan, program, policy, contract or arrangement providing for bonuses, pensions,
deferred pay, stock or stock-related awards, severance pay, salary continuation
or similar benefits, hospitalization, medical, dental or disability benefits,
life insurance or other employee benefits, or contract or agreement for
compensation to or for any current or former employees, agents, directors or
independent contractors of any PSI Entity ("EMPLOYEES") or any beneficiaries or
dependents of any Employee

                                      -14-
<PAGE>
 
whether or not insured or funded, (A) pursuant to which any PSI Entity has any
liability or (B) constituting an employment or severance agreement or
arrangement with any officer or director of any PSI Entity (each, a "BENEFIT
ARRANGEMENT").  PSMI has made available to SEI with respect to each Employee
Plan and Benefit Arrangement: (i) a true and complete copy of all written
documents comprising such Employee Plan or Benefit Arrangement or, if there is
no such written document, an accurate and complete description of such Employee
Plan or Benefit Arrangement; (ii) the most recent Form 5500 or Form 5500-C
(including all schedules thereto), if applicable; (iii) the most recent
financial statements and actuarial reports, if any; (iv) the summary plan
description currently in effect and all material modifications thereof, if any;
and (v) the most recent Internal Revenue Service determination letter, if any.
All material contributions required to be made as of the date hereof to the
Employee Plans and Benefit Arrangements have been made or provided for.  No PSI
Entity has contributed to, or has been required to contribute to, any
"multiemployer plan" (as defined in Sections 3(37) and 4001(a)(3) of ERISA).  No
PSI Entity maintains or contributes to any plan or arrangement which provides or
has any liability to provide life insurance, medical or other employee welfare
benefits to any employee or former employee upon his or her retirement or
termination of employment and no PSI Entity has ever represented, promised or
contracted (whether in oral or written form) to any employee or former employee
that such benefits would be provided.

          (b) Each Employee Plan and Benefit Arrangement has been established
and maintained in all material respects in accordance with its terms and in
material compliance with all applicable laws, including, but not limited to,
ERISA and the Code.  No PSI Entity nor any of their current or former directors,
officers or employees, nor, to the knowledge of PSI and PSMI, any other
disqualified Person or party-in-interest with respect to any Employee Plan, has
engaged directly or indirectly in any "prohibited transaction," as such term is
defined in Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA.

          (c) No PSI Entity has an Employee Plan that is subject to Title IV of
ERISA and no PSI Entity has had an ERISA Affiliate (other than another PSI
Entity) at any time since the earlier of its inception and September 2, 1974.

          (d) Neither the execution or delivery of this Agreement nor the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (either alone or together
with any additional or subsequent events) constitutes an event under any
Employee Plan, Benefit Arrangement or loan to, or individual agreement or
contract with, an Employee that may result in any payment (whether severance pay
or otherwise), restriction or limitation upon the assets of any Employee Plan or
Benefit Agreement, acceleration of payment or vesting, increase in benefits or
compensation, or require funding, with respect to any Employee, or the
forgiveness of any loan or other commitment of any Employees.

          (e) All contributions required under applicable law or the terms of
any Employee Plan or other agreement relating to an Employee Plan to be paid by
any PSI Entity have been completely and timely made to each Employee Plan when
due, and each PSI Entity

                                      -15-
<PAGE>
 
has established adequate reserves on its books to meet liabilities for
contributions accrued but that have not been made because they are not yet due
and payable.

          (f) No amounts paid or payable by any PSI Entity to or with respect to
any Employee will fail to be deductible for federal income tax purposes by
reason of Section 280G of the Code.

          (g) No Employees and no beneficiaries or dependents of Employees are
or may become entitled under any Employee Plan or Benefit Arrangement to post-
employment welfare benefits of any kind, including, without limitation, death or
medical benefits, other than coverage mandated by Section 4980B of the Code.

     5.9. LABOR MATTERS

          No PSI Entity is a party to, or bound by, any collective bargaining
agreement, contract or other agreement or understanding with a labor union or
labor organization.  There is no unfair labor practice or labor arbitration
proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of PSMI or PSI, threatened against any
PSI Entity relating to its business.  To the knowledge of PSMI and PSI, there
are no organizational efforts with respect to the formation of a collective
bargaining unit presently being made or threatened involving employees of any
PSI Entity.

     5.10.  TAXES

          Each PSI Entity has (i) timely filed with each Governmental Body all
Tax Returns required to be filed by it, either separately or as a member of an
affiliated group, with respect to all applicable Taxes for all years and periods
(or portions thereof) for which any such Tax Returns were due and all such Tax
Returns are true, correct and complete in all respects and were prepared in the
manner required by applicable law, (ii) paid all Taxes due whether or not shown
on such Tax Returns or claimed to be due by any Governmental Body and (iii)
properly accrued on its respective financial statements all Taxes due for which
each such PSI Entity may be liable in its own right (including, without
limitation, by reason of being a member of an affiliated group) or as a
transferee of the assets of, or successor to, any corporation, person,
association, partnership, joint venture or other entity for periods subsequent
to the periods covered by such returns.  There are no liens for Taxes on any
property or assets of any PSI Entity other than liens for current property taxes
not yet due.  The Tax Returns of each PSI Entity are not being and have not been
examined by any Governmental Body for any past year or periods to and including
the calendar year December 31, 1994.  No PSI Entity has been requested to, or
has, executed or filed with the IRS or any other Governmental Body any agreement
extending the statute of limitations period of any Taxes.  For each PSI Entity,
the applicable federal statutes of limitations have closed for all taxable years
through 1987.  No PSI Entity is a party to any pending action or any formal or
informal proceeding by any Governmental Body for a deficiency, assessment or
collection of Taxes, and no claim for any deficiency, assessment or collection
of Taxes has been asserted, or to its best knowledge

                                      -16-
<PAGE>
 
threatened, against it, including claims by an authority in a jurisdiction where
it does not file Tax Returns that it is or may be subject to taxation in that
jurisdiction.

          Each PSI Entity has withheld and paid all Taxes required to have been
withheld and paid in connection with amounts paid or owing to any employee,
independent contractor, creditor, shareholder or other third party.  No PSI
Entity (i) has executed or filed a consent under Section 341(f) of the Code
concerning collapsible corporations or has been at any time, a "collapsible
corporation" as defined in Section 341(b) of the Code; (ii) is a party to any
agreement relating to the allocation of, sharing, payment of, or indemnity for,
Taxes; or (iii) has liability for Taxes of any Person under Section 1.1502-6 of
the Treasury Regulations (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign
law), including liability as a transferee or successor, by contract or
otherwise.  Each PSI Entity has established (and until the Closing shall
continue to establish and maintain) on its books and records reserves that are
adequate for the payment of all Taxes not yet due and payable.

          Any PSI Entity that is, or has been at any time, a "United States Real
Property Holding Corporation" within the meaning of Section 897(c)(2) of the
Code, qualifies or qualified as a "domestically-controlled REIT" within the
meaning of Section 897(h) of the Code.  No other PSI Entities are, or have ever
been, "United States Real Property Holding Corporations" within the meaning of
Section 897(c)(2) of the Code.

          No PSI Entity has made any payments, is obligated to make any
payments, or is a party to an agreement that could obligate it to make any
payments that will not be deductible under Section 280G of the Code.  Each PSI
Entity has disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service all positions taken on its
federal income Tax Returns which could give rise to a substantial understatement
of Tax under Section 6662 of the Code.

          Tax Returns required to be filed with respect to the short taxable
year of each PSI Entity, will, when filed, be true, correct and complete in all
respects.

     5.11.  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

          (a) The PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement sets forth a complete list of
the PSI Intellectual Property Rights registered or filed by each PSI Entity and
a list of all licenses, sublicenses and agreements to which any PSI Entity is a

business.  To the knowledge of PSI and PSMI, the PSI Entities possess the right
to use all intellectual property rights, whether PSI Intellectual Property
Rights or other such rights, necessary for the conduct of their respective
businesses.

          (b) To the knowledge of PSI and PSMI, no PSI Entity has infringed upon
or misappropriated any intellectual property rights of third parties, and no PSI
Entity has received any charge, complaint, claim or notice alleging any such
interference, infringement, misappropriation or violation.  To the knowledge of
PSI and PSMI, no third party has interfered with, infringed upon,
misappropriated or otherwise come into conflict with any PSI Intellectual

                                      -17-
<PAGE>
 
Property Rights except for any such interference, infringement, misappropriation
or violation which has not had, and is not likely to have, a PSI Entities
Material Adverse Effect.

          (c) At the Closing, PSMI will have the exclusive right to transfer and
assign to SEI all of the PSI Intellectual Property Rights.  None of such PSI
Intellectual Property Rights is subject to any liens, security interests,
charges, encumbrances or interests of third parties, or requires any consent,
approval or waiver to be transferred and assigned to SEI by way of the Merger.

     5.12.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

years then ended, and (ii) unaudited consolidated balance sheets as of March 31,
1995 and related unaudited statements of income and other statements for the
fiscal quarter then ended.  Each of such balance sheets (including the related
notes) referred to in subsection (i) hereof presents fairly, in all material
respects, the consolidated financial position of each of PSI and PSMI and their
subsidiaries as of the respective dates thereof, and the other related

material respects, the results of their operations and their cash flows for the
respective periods or as of the respective dates set forth therein, all in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied
during the periods involved, except as otherwise noted in the auditor's report.
Each of such balance sheets referred to in subsection (ii) hereof presents
fairly, in all material respects, the assets, liabilities, and shareholders'
equity of PSI and PSMI and their subsidiaries as of the respective dates
thereof, and the other related statements included therein present fairly, in
all material respects, the results of their operations for the respective
periods or as of the respective dates set forth therein, all on a basis
consistent with prior periods.

     5.13.  ABSENCE OF CERTAIN CHANGES OR EVENTS

ordinary course, (b) no PSI Entity has entered into any material transaction
other than in the ordinary course, and (c) there has not been any change in the
business, financial condition, results of operations, properties, assets,
liabilities or prospects of any PSI Entity which, in the aggregate, would have,

<PAGE>
 
          (b) The minute books and other records of each PSI Entity have been
made available to SEI, contain in all material respects accurate records of all
meetings and accurately reflect in all material respects all other corporate
action of the shareholders and directors and any committees of the Board of
Directors of each PSI Entity.

     5.15.  CONTRACTS AND LEASES

          The PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement contains an accurate and complete
listing of all material contracts, leases, agreements or understandings, whether
written or oral, of each PSI Entity (the "MATERIAL AGREEMENTS").  A contract,
lease, agreement or understanding is "material" if it involves (i) obligations
(contingent or otherwise) of, or payments to any PSI Entity in excess of
$100,000 per annum, (ii) partnership, management or advisory agreements in
excess of $100,000 per annum, or (iii) the license of any patent, copyright,
trade secret or other proprietary right (A) to any PSI Entity which is necessary
for that PSI Entity to carry on its business or (B) from any PSI Entity which
materially limits the ability of that PSI Entity to carry on its business.  Each
Material Agreement is in full force and effect and (a) no PSI Entity nor, to the
knowledge of PSI and PSMI, any other party thereto has breached any of the above
in any material respect or is in material default thereunder, (b) no event has
occurred which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would
constitute such a breach or default, (c) no claim of material default thereunder
has been asserted or threatened, and (d) no PSI Entity nor, to the best
knowledge of PSI and PSMI, any other party thereto is seeking the renegotiation
thereof or substitute performance thereunder.

     5.16.  TITLE TO ASSETS; ENCUMBRANCES

          Except for properties and assets reflected in the unaudited
consolidated combined balance sheet as of March 31, 1995 or acquired since such
balance sheet date which have been sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary
course of business, each PSI Entity has good, valid and marketable title to (a)
all of its material properties and assets (real and personal, tangible and
intangible), and (b) all of the properties and assets purchased by each PSI
Entity since such balance sheet date in each case subject to no encumbrance,
lien, charge or other restriction of any kind or character, except for (i) liens
reflected in such balance sheet, (ii) liens consisting of zoning restrictions or
limitations on the use of real property or irregularities in title thereto which
do not materially detract from the value of, or impair the use of, such property
by any PSI Entity in the operation of its business, (iii) liens for current
taxes, assessments or governmental charges or levies on property not yet due and
delinquent and (iv) liens described in the PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement (liens
of the type described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above are hereinafter
sometimes referred to as "PERMITTED LIENS").

     5.17.  REAL PROPERTY

          The PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement contains an accurate and complete
list of all real property owned in whole or in part by the PSI Entities and
includes the name of the record title holder thereof and a list of all
indebtedness secured by a lien, mortgage or deed of trust

                                      -19-
<PAGE>
 
thereon.  Each PSI Entity has good and marketable title in fee simple to all the
real property owned by it free and clear of all encumbrances, liens, charges or
other restrictions of any kind or character, except for Permitted Liens.  All of
the buildings, structures and appurtenances situated on the real property owned
in whole or in part by any PSI Entity are in good operating condition and in a
state of good maintenance and repair, are adequate and suitable for the purposes
for which they are presently being used and, with respect to each, the PSI
Entity has adequate rights of ingress and egress for operation of the business
of such PSI Entity in the ordinary course.  None of such buildings, structures
or appurtenances (or any equipment therein), nor the operation or maintenance
thereof, to the knowledge of PSI and PSMI, violates any restrictive covenant or
any provision of federal, state or local law, ordinance, rule or regulation, or
encroaches on any property owned by others, except for such violations or
encroachments which do not have a PSI Entities Material Adverse Effect.  No
condemnation proceeding is pending or threatened which would preclude or impair
the use of any such property by any PSI Entity for the purposes for which it is
currently used.

     5.18.  ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

          (a) For purposes of this section, "HAZARDOUS MATERIALS" means any

Site, including without limitation the following conditions arising out of,
resulting from, or attributable to, the assets, business, or operations of any

     5.19.  AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

          Set forth in the PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement is a list of all
current material arrangements, agreements and contracts, written or oral,
entered into by any PSI Entity with any person who is an officer, director or
Affiliate of that PSI Entity (other than any other PSI Entity or SEI), any
relative of any of the foregoing or any entity of which any of the foregoing is
an Affiliate, other than those that will be terminated as a result of, or in
connection with, the Merger.

     5.20.  BROKERS AND FINDERS

          Neither PSI nor PSMI has entered into any contract, arrangement or
understanding with any person or firm which may result in the obligation of PSI
or PSMI or SEI to pay any finder's fees, brokerage or agent's commissions or
other like payments in connection with the negotiations leading to this
Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.  Except
for the fees and expenses paid or payable by SEI to Robertson Stephens & Company

          None of the information supplied or to be supplied by PSI or PSMI for
inclusion in the Proxy Statement will at the time of mailing the Proxy Statement
and at the time of the SEI Shareholders Meeting contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.  If at any time prior
to the Effective Time any event with respect to any PSI Entity or its officers
and directors shall occur that is required to be described in an amendment of,
or a supplement to, the Proxy Statement, PSMI shall notify SEI thereof by
reference to this Section 5.21 and cooperate with SEI in preparing and filing an
amendment or supplement with the SEC and, as required by law, disseminating to
the shareholders of SEI an amendment or supplement which accurately describes
such event or events in compliance with all provisions of applicable law.

     5.22.  INSURANCE

          The PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement contains an accurate list of all
insurance policies of the PSI Entities, and each such insurance policy is in
full force and effect and issued by a reputable insurer.  All premiums due with
respect to such policies have been paid, and no notice of premium increase,
cancellation or termination has been received with respect to any such policy.
Such policies (i) are sufficient for compliance with requirements of law and
with agreements to which the PSI Entities are parties, (ii) are valid,
outstanding and enforceable, (iii) provide insurance coverage for the assets and

PSI Entities, (iv) will remain in full force and effect through at least the
Closing Date and (v) will not be modified as a result of, or terminate or lapse

has been refused any insurance with respect to its assets or operations, nor has
its coverage been materially limited, by any insurance carrier to which it has
applied for any such insurance or with which it has carried insurance during the
last three years.  The PSI Entities have reported all claims and occurrences to
the extent required by such insurance.

     5.23.  LICENSES; COMPLIANCE WITH LAW

          Each PSI Entity has obtained from the appropriate Governmental Bodies
all approvals and licenses necessary for the conduct of its business and
operations as currently conducted, which approvals and licenses are valid and
remain in full force and effect, except where the failure to have obtained such
approvals or licenses or the failure of such licenses and approvals to be valid
and in full force and effect does not have and would not be reasonably expected
(so far as can be foreseen at the time) to have a PSI Entities Material Adverse
Effect.  None of the PSI Entities has violated or failed to comply with any
statute, law, ordinance, regulation, rule, order or other legal requirement of
any Governmental Body, or any judgment, decree or order of any court, applicable
to its business or operations, except where any such violations or failures to
comply would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a PSI Material Adverse
Effect.

     5.24.  GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS

          Except for any filings that may be required by the HSR Act and the
filing of the Proxy Statement with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, no
Authorization of or with any Governmental Body is necessary for the execution
and delivery of this Agreement by PSI or PSMI or the consummation by PSI or PSMI
of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Restructure), other than
such Authorizations which, if not made or obtained, as the case may be, would
not, in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to have a PSI Entities
Material Adverse Effect.

     5.25.  DISCLOSURE

          The representations and warranties of PSI and PSMI contained in this
Agreement, in the PSI/PSMI Disclosure Statement, or in any written certificate
or related agreement furnished or to be furnished to SEI by any PSI Entity in
connection with the Closing pursuant to this Agreement do not contain any untrue
statement of a fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the
statements and information contained herein or therein, in light of the
circumstances in which they are made, not misleading.

6.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SEI

          Except as set forth in the SEI SEC Reports, SEI hereby represents and
warrants to PSI and PSMI that, as of the date hereof:

     6.1. ORGANIZATION AND RELATED MATTERS

          SEI is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of California and has all requisite
corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties, to carry
on its business as now conducted and proposed by SEI to be conducted, to enter
into this Agreement and to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.  SEI is duly qualified and in
good standing in each jurisdiction in which the property owned, leased or
operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such
qualification necessary and where the failure to be so qualified has or would be
reasonably expected (so far as can be foreseen at the time) to have a material
adverse effect on the business, properties, operations, condition (financial or
other) or prospects of SEI and its subsidiaries taken as a whole (a "SEI
MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT").  SEI has no direct or indirect equitable or
beneficial interest in any other corporation, except for qualifying REIT
subsidiaries.

     6.2. AUTHORIZATION

          This Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby (including the Recapitalization) have been approved by the Board of
Directors of SEI, and have been duly authorized by all other necessary corporate
action on the part of SEI (except for the approval of SEI's shareholders
contemplated by Section 7.3).  This Agreement has been duly executed and
delivered by a duly authorized officer of SEI and, subject to SEI shareholder
approval, constitutes a valid and binding agreement of SEI, enforceable against
SEI in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of
general application that may affect the enforcement of creditors' rights
generally and by general equitable principles.

                                      -24-

     6.3. CAPITAL STOCK

          The authorized capital stock of SEI consists solely of (i) 60,000,000
SEI Common Shares, approximately 42,045,000 of which are issued and outstanding
(and 700,334 and 3,872,054 of which were reserved for issuance under SEI's
employee stock option plans and for issuance upon conversion or redemption of
SEI's Convertible Preferred Stock, respectively), and (ii) 50,000,000 shares of
Preferred Stock ($.10 par value), 13,320,000 of which are issued and
outstanding, consisting of 1,825,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock,
2,386,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, 2,300,000 shares of Convertible
Preferred Stock, 1,200,000 shares of Adjustable Rate Preferred Stock, 1,200,000
shares of Series D Preferred Stock, 2,195,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock
and 2,300,000 shares of Series F Preferred Stock.  All of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock of SEI have been duly and
validly authorized and issued, and are fully paid and nonassessable.  As a
result of the Recapitalization, the authorized capital stock of SEI will consist
solely of (i) 200,000,000 SEI Common Shares, (ii) 7,000,000 SEI Class B Shares,
and (iii) 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock ($.10 par value).  Other than
options under SEI's employee stock option plans and SEI's Convertible Preferred
Stock and as provided in this Agreement, there are no options or agreements to
which SEI is a party or by which it is bound calling for or requiring the
issuance of any of SEI's capital stock.

          The issuance of the SEI Shares in the Merger has been duly authorized,
and when issued and delivered as provided in Section 4, will be validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable; and no shareholder of SEI has any preemptive right
of subscription or purchase in respect thereof.  The issuance of the SEI Shares
in the Merger will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act and all
applicable state securities laws.

     6.4. LITIGATION

          There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings
(adjudicatory, rulemaking or otherwise) pending or, to the knowledge of SEI,
threatened against SEI, or any property (including intellectual property) of
SEI, in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any
Governmental Body, except actions, suits, investigations or proceedings that, in
the aggregate, do not have and would not be reasonably expected (so far as can
be foreseen at the time) to have (a) a SEI Material Adverse Effect or (b) a
material adverse effect on the ability of SEI to perform its obligations under
this Agreement.

     6.5. COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER INSTRUMENTS, ETC.

          SEI is not in violation of any term of (a) its charter, bylaws or
other organizational documents, (b) any agreement or instrument related to
indebtedness for borrowed money or any other agreement to which it is a party or
by which it is bound, (c) any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation of
any Governmental Body, or (d) any applicable order, judgment or decree of any
court, arbitrator or Governmental Body, except, as to subsections (a) through
(d) of this Section, where such violation, individually or in the aggregate,
does not have

                                      -25-
<PAGE>
 
and would not be reasonably expected (so far as can be foreseen at the time) to
have a SEI Material Adverse Effect or a material adverse effect on the ability
of SEI to perform its obligations under this Agreement.  The execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement by SEI will not result in any violation of or
conflict with, constitute a default under, require any consent under any term of
the charter, bylaws or other organizational documents of SEI or any agreement,
instrument, permit, license, law, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, judgment
or decree to which SEI is a party or to which SEI or any of its material assets
are subject, or result in the creation of (or impose any obligation on SEI to
create) any mortgage, lien, charge, security interest or other encumbrance upon
any of the properties or assets of SEI pursuant to any such term, except where
such violation, conflict or default, or the failure to obtain such consent or
the creation of such encumbrance, individually or in the aggregate, does not
have and would not be reasonably expected (so far as can be foreseen at the
time) to have (a) a SEI Material Adverse Effect or (b) a material adverse effect
on the ability of SEI to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

     6.6. REPORTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

          SEI has filed all reports required to be filed with the SEC since
March 31, 1994 (collectively, the "SEI SEC REPORTS"), and has previously
furnished or made available to PSI true and complete copies of all SEI SEC
Reports.  None of the SEI SEC Reports, as of their respective dates (as amended
through the date hereof), contained any untrue statement of material fact or
omitted 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.  Each of the balance sheets (including the related notes)
included in the SEI SEC Reports presents fairly, in all material respects, the
consolidated financial position of SEI and its subsidiaries as of the respective

               (a) The separate corporate existence of PSMI shall cease and the
Surviving Corporation shall thereupon succeed, without other transfer, to all

liabilities of PSMI in the same manner as if the Surviving Corporation had

<PAGE>
 
               (b) If, prior to the Effective Time, SEI should split or combine
the SEI Common Shares, or pay a stock dividend or other stock distribution in
SEI Common Shares, or otherwise change the SEI Common Shares into, or exchange
SEI Common Shares for, any other securities (whether pursuant to or as part of a
merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation,
reorganization or liquidation of SEI as a result of which the SEI Shareholders
receive cash, stock or other property in exchange for, or in connection with,
their SEI Shares (a "Business Combination")), or make any other dividend or
distribution (other than cash) on the SEI Common Shares, then the number of SEI
Shares will be appropriately adjusted to reflect such split, combination,
dividend, distribution, Business Combination or change.

               (c) The PSMI Shares to be converted into SEI Shares pursuant to
this Section 2.1 shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and retired
and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate or certificates
representing any such PSMI Shares (the "Certificates") shall thereafter cease to
have any rights with respect to such PSMI Shares, except the right to receive
for each of the PSMI Shares, upon the surrender of such Certificate in
accordance with Section 2.3, the SEI Shares specified above (subject to the
provisions of Section 4.8 of the Plan).

          2.2  SEI SHARES UNAFFECTED.  The Merger shall effect no change in
any of the outstanding SEI Common Shares or SEI Preferred Shares and no
outstanding SEI Common Shares or SEI Preferred Shares shall be converted or
exchanged as a result of the Merger, and no securities shall be issuable with
respect thereto.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any SEI Common Shares owned by
any PSI Entity at the Effective Time shall be cancelled and retired.

          2.3  SURRENDER OF CERTIFICATES.  Subject to the provisions of
Section 4.8 of the Plan, at the Closing (as defined in the Plan), PSMI shall
cause each holder of PSMI Shares to surrender the Certificates representing the
PSMI shares to SEI and such holders shall be entitled to receive in exchange
therefor certificates representing the number and class of SEI Shares into which
such PSMI Shares shall be converted pursuant to Section 2.1.

          2.4  FRACTIONAL SHARES.  Notwithstanding any other term or
provision of this Agreement, no fractional SEI Shares and no certificates or
scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued in the
Merger.  In lieu of any such fractional share interests, each holder of PSMI
Shares who would otherwise be entitled to such fractional share will, upon
surrender of the certificate representing such PSMI Shares, receive a whole SEI
Share if such fractional share to which such holder would otherwise have been
entitled is .5 of an SEI Share or more, and such fractional share shall be
disregarded if it represents less than .5 of an SEI Share.

          2.5  TRANSFER OF SHARES.  No transfers of PSMI Shares shall be
