SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Company's executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten
percent of the common stock of the Company, to file reports of ownership and
changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers,
directors, and ten percent shareholders are required by the SEC regulations to
furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

         Based solely on its review of the copies of such reports received by
it, and written representations from certain reporting persons that no SEC Forms
3, 4, or 5 were required to be filed by those persons, the Company believes that
during fiscal year 1997, its officers, directors and ten percent beneficial
owners timely complied with all applicable filing requirements.

(1)   Includes deferred compensation.
(2)   Represents the value of the vested portion of the stock grants issued to
      Mr. Rose at fiscal year end 1996 and 1997. Mr. Rose was granted 27,022
      shares of Common stock in April 1995, pursuant to a restricted stock
      agreement (the "Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the
      shares are subject to certain restrictions which expire on March 31, 1998.
      The restrictions lapse equally each year for the term of the grant and
      with respect to all shares in the event of termination of employment for
      any reason other than "cause," voluntary termination for "good reason" and
      death or disability, as defined in the Agreement. If at any time prior to
      the expiration of the restriction period, employment is terminated "for
      cause" or any other reason not provided for under the Agreement, any such
      shares still subject to restrictions, as previously described, shall be
      transferred to the Company, without monetary consideration.
(3)   All other compensation represents 401(k) matching contributions.

      key-man life insurance policy, for which Mr. Doganiero's estate is the
      beneficiary.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

         Directors who are not employees of the Company are paid $12,000
annually. All directors receive reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in connection with meetings of the Board of Directors. No
director who is an employee of the Company receives separate compensation for
services rendered as a director.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE-IN-CONTROL
ARRANGEMENTS

         The Company has employment agreements with executive officers Richard
C. Rose and Philip Doganiero. Mr. Rose's agreement, as amended, provides for a
minimum annual base salary of $329,400, a one-time lump sum distribution of
$152,000 on April 1, 1995, discretionary bonuses awarded by the Company's Board
of Directors and awards of restricted stock and stock options that vest over
three years. Mr. Rose's amended employment agreement expires December 31, 1999.
Mr. Doganiero's agreement provides for an annual base salary of $225,000 or such
greater amount as may be approved from time to time by the Company's Board of
Directors and expires January 11, 1998.

         Pursuant to their respective employment agreements, Messrs. Rose and
Doganiero each agree not to compete, directly or indirectly, with the Company in
the states in which the Company does or may do business during the terms of
their employment and for a period of one year after the termination of their
employment. If either Mr. Rose or Mr. Doganiero is terminated without cause, the
Company is required to pay his remaining base salary and any additional
compensation earned in excess of his base salary until the date of termination,
plus an amount equal to his then annual base salary for the period through and
including the expiration of his employment agreement. If either Mr. Rose or Mr.
Doganiero is terminated with cause, the Company is required to pay only his base
salary up to the date of termination. If either Mr. Rose or Mr. Doganiero dies
during the term of his employment, the Company is required: (a) to pay to his
estate the base salary otherwise payable until the later of (i) three years from
the date of death or (ii) the end of the term of his employment agreement; and
(b) to pay his estate an additional $5,000.

         Under their respective employment agreements, if there is a "change in
control" of the Company and, subsequent to such change in control, either Mr.
Rose's or Mr. Doganiero's employment agreement (or any subsequent employment
agreement then in effect which expires prior to the time they have attained 65
years of age) is terminated or is not renewed by the Company at the expiration
of its term, or any renewals, extensions or modifications, then he would receive
compensation in an amount equal to 299% of his annual base salary in effect at
the time of his termination (the "Severance Amount"). This Severance Amount
would be payable in one single payment within 60 days after the termination of
his employment. The Severance Amount, however, may not exceed three times the
"base amount" as determined under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code"). In the event the Severance Amount is reduced for
the reason set forth in the preceding sentence, the Severance Amount would be
reduced prior to the reduction of any other payments due under each of Mr.
Rose's and Mr. Doganiero's employment agreements. A "change in control" is
defined in both employment agreements as a transfer of more than 50% of the
Company's Common Stock in a single transaction or series of transactions in
concert with each other (excluding transfers made by persons who were officers
or were related to officers of the Company immediately prior to the change in
control).

         The Company has also entered into an employment agreement with Anthony
G. Lembo, its President, effective January 11, 1995. Mr. Lembo's employment
agreement is for a period of three years and provides for an annual base salary
of $125,000 or such greater amount as may be approved from time to time by the
Company's Board of Directors. Upon Mr. Lembo's election as President of the
Company, the Board of Directors approved an increase of Mr. Lembo's annual base
salary to $175,000 ("Base Salary") and an amount equal to $50,000 per year, or
such greater amount as may be approved from time to time by the Company's Board
of Directors, if the Company's Southeast division meets or exceeds certain
financial targets ("Performance Bonus"). Pursuant to his employment agreement,
Mr. Lembo agrees not to compete, directly or indirectly, with the Company in the
states in which the Company does or may do business, during the term of his
employment and for a period of one year after the termination of his employment.
The employment agreement also provides that Mr. Lembo shall receive

                                       5

<PAGE>


severance benefits if his employment is terminated by the Company "without
cause" (as defined in the employment agreement). In such a case, Mr. Lembo would
receive his Base Salary, as in effect upon his termination, for the remaining
term of his employment agreement and his Performance Bonus for the last full
fiscal year completed prior to the date of his termination. Mr. Lembo's
employment agreement expires January 11, 1998.

STOCK OPTION PLANS

         The Company maintains two incentive stock option plans (the "ISO
Plans") and five incentive and nonqualified stock option plans. The 1989, 1990,
1991, 1992 and 1994 incentive and nonqualified stock option plans (the "NQSO
Plans") provide for the grant of both incentive stock options and nonqualified
stock options to employees of the Company.

         Shares of Common Stock have been reserved and issued under the above
plans as follows:

STOCK OPTION PLAN                 SHARES RESERVED            SHARES GRANTED
- -----------------------           ---------------            --------------
1984 and 1987 ISO Plans               700,000                    700,000
1989 NQSO Plan                        400,000                    400,000
1990 NQSO Plan                        160,000                    110,250
1991 NQSO Plan                        200,000                     50,000
1992 NQSO Plan                        400,000                    372,750
1994 NQSO Plan                        800,000                    622,722


         The ISO Plans and the NQSO Plans, excluding the 1990 NQSO Plan, provide
for the discretionary grant of options to purchase Common Stock at a price
determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, but, in the
case of incentive stock options, at a price not less than the fair market value
thereof on the date of grant. The options, by their terms, must be exercised
within ten years from the date on which they are granted or within 90 days of
employment termination.

         All options fully vest at date of grant except for stock options
granted under the 1989, 1991 and 1992 NQSO Plans, which vest 25% per year
beginning one year after grant date, and the 1994 NQSO Plan, which provides the
board of directors with discretion to determine vesting.

Company's Common Stock. During fiscal year 1997, the amount of indebtedness owed

Report of Independent Certified Public Accountants

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Dataflex Corporation

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related
consolidated statements of operations, of shareholders' equity and of cash flows
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Dataflex
Corporation and its subsidiary at March 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended March 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1:  SUMMARY OF THE BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Dataflex Corporation ("Dataflex" or "the Company") was incorporated in the State
of New Jersey in April 1976. Dataflex provides desktop computing solutions and
services including product sales, system integration, network installation, help
desk support, training, consultation services and equipment repair maintenance.
The Company serves primarily large business organizations with diverse desktop
computing requirements located primarily in the Southeastern United States.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION--The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

REVENUE RECOGNITION--Sales of computer equipment are recorded upon shipment to
customers. Services contract revenue is generally recognized when services are
performed or ratably over the contract period. The Company allows its customers
to return product for exchange or credit subject to certain limitations.
Provision for estimated losses on such returns are recorded at the time of sale
(see product warranty below). Funds received from vendors for marketing programs
and product rebates are accounted for as a reduction of selling, general and
administrative expenses or product cost according to the nature of the program.

PRODUCT WARRANTY--The Company does not offer warranty coverage. However, to
promote customer goodwill, the Company facilitates vendor warranty policies by
accepting for exchange (with the Company's prior approval) defective products
within 30 days of invoicing. Defective products received by the Company are
subsequently returned to the vendor for credit or replacement.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK--The Company sells its products to a large base of
corporate and government agencies located throughout the Southeastern United
States. The Company performs on going credit evaluations of its customers and
generally does not require collateral. The Company makes provisions for
estimated credit losses at the time of sale.

No single customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's revenue
during the three years ended March 31, 1997.

Sales of products from one vendor constituted approximately 31%, 31% and 23% of
the Company's revenue during the years ended March 31, 1997, 1996, and 1995,
respectively. Another vendor's products comprised 13%, 13% and 15% of the
Company's revenue during the same three year period.

INCOME TAXES--The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability
approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax consequences of events
that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE--Earnings (loss) per share are calculated by dividing
net income (loss) by the weighted average common shares and, when their effect
is dilutive, common share equivalents outstanding during the year. Weighted
average common shares outstanding for the years ended March 31, 1997, 1996 and
1995 were 5,731,368, 5,213,711 and 4,732,571 and included common stock
equivalents of 425,797, for the year ended March 31, 1995.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued two standards
which will be applicable to the Company in fiscal year 1998: No. 128, EARNING
PER SHARE and No. 129, DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION ABOUT CAPITAL STRUCTURE. The
effects of these standards are expected to result in the disclosure of Basic
Earnings Per Share of $(1.35) and $(1.22) for 1997 and 1996 respectively, and
Diluted Earnings Per Share of $(1.35) and $(1.22) for 1997 and 1996,
respectively. In addition, additional disclosure regarding the Company's capital
structure may be required.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS--For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the
Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

RESTRICTED CASH -- Restricted cash represents amounts held in escrow pending
final settlement of sales agreements involving the disposition of certain of the
Company's former operating divisions (Note 3).

                                       F-6

INVENTORY--Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined on a specific cost basis for equipment and average cost for spare
parts. Discretionary subsidies received from manufacturers are recorded as
reductions in the inventory value or, if the product to which the subsidy
relates has been sold, as reductions in the cost of revenue.

ASSETS HELD FOR SALE--Assets held for sale represents the estimated fair market
value of the net assets of the Company's Apple, K-12 contract. Non-current
assets held for sale reflects land and buildings in Clearwater, Florida.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET--Property and equipment are stated at cost.
Depreciation and amortization are computed by use of the straight-line method.
Depreciation is based on the estimated useful life of the various assets which
range from three to forty years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the
shorter of the life of the lease or their estimated useful life.

GOODWILL--Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value
of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed and is being amortized over 25
years using the straight-line method. Accumulated amortization was $1,661,214
and $1,023,354 at March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The Company evaluates,
on a regular basis, whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate
the carrying amount of goodwill may warrant revisions or may not be recoverable.
At March 31, 1997, the net unamortized balance of goodwill is not considered to
be impaired. A reduction in goodwill of $10,030,000 was recorded during Fiscal
1997 in connection with the disposition of certain assets and the payment of
certain amounts under previously executed purchase agreements. (Notes 2 and 3).

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS--Financial instruments that are subject to
fair value disclosure requirements (cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
accounts payable and debt) are carried in the consolidated financial statements
at amounts that approximate fair value.

USE OF ESTIMATES--The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2:    ACQUISITIONS

Effective April 1, 1994, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets
and assumed substantially all of the liabilities of Granite Computer Products,
Inc. ("Granite"), a reseller of computer products located in Alameda,
California, for $9,514,200 in cash.

Effective June 1, 1994, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and
assumed substantially all of the liabilities of Advantage Systems, Inc.
("Advantage"), an Entre Computer franchise of Intelligent Electronics, in
exchange for $2,250,000 in cash, a $1,000,000 convertible redeemable note,
71,397 shares of the Company's common stock with an aggregate market value of
$500,000 and a contingent payment based upon the future earnings of Advantage
for a three-year period. The $1,000,000 convertible redeemable note bears
interest at 6% per annum and could have been converted at any time through the
maturity date of May 31, 1997 into 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock,
which would have been valued at the closing price on the date of conversion. The
note has been assumed by the purchaser of the Midwestern region.

Effective November 1, 1994, the Company (through its wholly-owned subsidiary
Dataflex Southwest Corporation) acquired substantially all of the assets and
assumed substantially all of the liabilities of Hagen Computer Systems, Inc.
("Hagen"), an Entre Computer franchise of Intelligent Electronics, located in
Tucson, Arizona, for $416,000 in cash.

Effective January 1, 1995, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets
and assumed substantially all of the liabilities of National Data Products Inc.

$6,200,000 in cash, $3,500,000 in subordinated notes with an interest rate of
9%, 625,000 shares of the Company's common stock with an aggregate market value
of approximately $4,200,000, and a contingent payout based on the future

fiscal 1997 was $320,000.

Effective July 1, 1995, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and
assumed substantially all of the liabilities of Valtron Technologies, Inc., a
disk drive repair and reseller located in Valencia, California, for 642,252
shares of the Company's common stock with an approximately aggregate market
value of $3,400,000 and two subordinated notes aggregating $1,000,000. The notes
bear interest at 9% per annum.

These acquisitions have been accounted for under the purchase method and,
accordingly, the operating results of Granite, Advantage, Hagen, NDP and Valtron
have been included in the consolidated operating results since the dates of
their respective acquisitions.


                                       F-7

<PAGE>


The cost of the acquisitions has been allocated on the basis of the fair market
value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The allocation
resulted in goodwill of approximately $34,086,000 which is being amortized over
25 years on a straight-line basis. 

The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed results of operations listed
below give effect to certain adjustments, and assume the acquisitions occurred

On August 19, 1994, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
common stock of Sunland Computer Services, Inc. ("Sunland"), a reseller and
service provider of computer products based in Tempe, Arizona, in exchange for
640,013 shares of the Company's common stock with an aggregate market value of
$4,800,000. The acquisition was accounted for as a pooling of interests and,
accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
restated to include the accounts and operations of Sunland for all periods
presented.

NOTE 3:  DISPOSITIONS OF BUSINESSES

In March 1996, the Company decided to exit its operations in its Western Region,
which consists primarily of the Granite, Hagen and Sunland acquisitions
completed during Fiscal 1995, and its Valtron division, an acquisition completed
in Fiscal 1996 (Note 2). The Western Region had combined revenues of
$155,343,000, $98,816,000 and $19,968,000 for fiscal years 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.

In connection with these planned dispositions, the Company recorded a loss on
disposal of $4,632,000, representing the aggregate difference between the
carrying value of the net assets of these businesses and the estimated fair
value of these businesses. The estimated fair market value of the net assets of
the businesses to be disposed of are included in "Assets Held for Sale" in the
March 31, 1996 Consolidated Balance Sheet.

On May 24, 1996, the Company completed the sale of substantially all the assets
and the transfer of substantially all the liabilities of the Western Region,
excluding Valtron, to Vanstar Corporation for approximately $42 million in cash,
including $5 million placed in escrow pending future adjustments as described in
the agreement. The cash received was used to reduce the Company's accounts
payable and interest-bearing obligations on its credit facility with IBM Credit
Corporation in the amount of $9.3 million and $27.7 million, respectively. The
purchase price was subject to adjustment based primarily on the expected
realizability of certain assets as defined in the agreement. In January, 1997
the Company received approximately $1.1 million in cash and $400,000 in vendor
receivables in settlement of the $5.0 million escrow held by Vanstar.

On June 5, 1996, the Company announced an agreement to sell substantially all
the assets and the transfer of substantially all the liabilities of its Valtron
division to Valtron's President and a group of investors. The agreement,
finalized in July, is for $2,900,000 in cash, $750,000 in forgiveness of a Note
payable to Valtron and receipt of a note of $850,000, bearing interest at 9%.
The note is payable in two installments in July 1998 and July 1999. The
estimated loss on this sale, based on the purchase price outlined in the
agreement, is included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1996 described above.


                                       F-8

<PAGE>


On October 4, 1996, the Company sold substantially all of the assets and the
transfer of certain liabilities of its Midwestern and Eastern operating regions
to GE Capital for approximately $43.5 million, including $5 million placed in
escrow pending final settlement as provided for in the agreement. The Company
used the $38.5 million received in fiscal 1997 to reduce its accounts payable
and interest bearing debt with IBM Credit Corporation. The Company received
approximately $3.8 million of the escrow in fiscal 1998, which was used to
reduce the Company's short term debt. The Company also received approximately
$1.9 million in accounts receivable of the former Midwestern and Eastern
regions.

In connection with this disposition, the Company recorded a loss of $8,978,970
in Fiscal 1997, representing the aggregate loss on the disposition of these
businesses and the estimated fair value of these businesses. $2,748,995 of this
loss on disposition was recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 after the
Company received a final settlement of the assets held for sale.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed results of operations listed
below give effect to certain adjustments, and assume the dispositions occurred

NOTE 4:   LOSS ON IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS

On April 18, 1997, the Company completed the sale of certain assets of its
Kindergarten through 12th Grade Education division to Computer Plus, Inc. for
approximately $4.4 million, including a $150,000 escrow pending the future
settlement of contingencies as described in the agreement. The estimated fair
market value of the net assets of the business to be disposed are included in
"Assets Held for Sale" in the March 31, 1997 Consolidated Balance Sheet. The
proceeds from the sale were used to reduce the Company's short-term debt. The
Company recorded a loss on impairment of $2,941,185 related to this transaction.

The Company also recorded a loss on impairment of $339,040 on the proposed sale
of certain land and buildings. In June 1997, the Company preliminarily accepted
an offer of approximately $1 million to sell its headquarters located in
Clearwater, Florida. The estimated fair market value of the net assets to be
disposed are included in "Assets Held for Sale - Long-Term" at March 31, 1997.

NOTE 9:    CREDIT FACILITY

In December 1994, the Company executed Inventory and Working Capital Agreements
with IBM Credit Corporation (the "Agreements"). Secured by substantially all of
the assets of the Company. Interest charged under the Agreements ranges from
LIBOR plus 4.25% to LIBOR plus 4.875% on outstanding borrowings. Other charges
include monthly fees of $3,750 and an annum renewal fee of $25,000. This credit
facility was replaced during fiscal 1997.

On December 18, 1996 the Company executed a two year $38 million financing
agreement with Nation's Credit and Nations Bank. The new facility reduces
interest rates to LIBOR plus 2.25% for working capital loans. The structure of
the short-term debt includes a revolving line of credit and an inventory
financing agreement. The debt is collaterialized by the Company's accounts
receivable and inventory. Amounts due under the facility totalled $20,374,713
as of March 31, 1997.

The Line of Credit contains certain financial covenants, including covenants
requiring the Company to maintain a minimum tangible net worth, maintain a
minimum interest coverage ratio, maintain various minimum financial ratios and
limit the amount of capital expenditures. In addition, the Line of Credit
prohibits the Company, under certain conditions, from making cash dividends and
distributions and from redeeming shares of its capital stock for cash in excess
of $1,000,000 in any fiscal year.

Deferred tax assets (liabilities) arise due to the recognition of income and
expense items for tax purposes in periods which differ from those used for
financial statement purposes. The tax effects of significant temporary
differences which comprise the net deferred tax liability at March 31, 1996 and
1995 are as follows:

A valuation allowance has not been recorded for deferred tax assets, other than
against certain state income tax net operating losses, as management believes
that the Company will generate sufficient future taxable income to utilize the
Federal deferred tax assets.

As of March 31, 1997 the Company has a net operating loss carryforward of
approximately $14.5 million which expires in 2012. If certain substantial
changes in the Company's ownership should occur, there could be an annual
limitation on the amount on the carryforward which can be utilized.

NOTE 13:    RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 1996, the Company recorded restructuring and
other charges of $5,352,809, primarily related to write-downs of inventory and
spare parts, employee termination benefits and write-offs of the value of
computer systems to be replaced. The restructuring program was driven by the
need to refocus operations along more profitable business lines, consolidate
operations and implement upgraded computer systems. The Company planned
personnel reductions of approximately 30 individuals in operational,
administrative and executive areas. The Company recorded a provision of
$1,200,000 for the estimated level of employee termination benefits in the
accompanying March 31, 1996 Consolidated Balance Sheet. At March 31, 1997, the
Company has completed its personnel reductions and other planned restructurings.

NOTE 14: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company's employment contracts with three employees provide for base annual
salaries aggregating approximately $729,000 per year. The contracts for the
employees expire between January 1998 and December 1999. In Fiscal 1997, one
employee voluntarily reduced his compensation from $225,000 to $1 plus $60,000
in premiums on a life insurance policy.

   
In August 1996, the Company and Richard C. Rose were named as defendants in a
suit filed in state court in New Jersey, by Gordon McLenithan, a former
executive officer of the Company. Mr. McLenithan alleges that the Company failed
to pay him an amount allegedly owed to Mr. McLenithan upon a change in control
of the Company. Mr. McLenithan also charges Mr. Rose with defamation and
interference with contractual relations. The lawsuit is in the initial stages of
litigation and the Company has denied Mr. McLenithan's allegations and intends
to vigorously contest the suit. The Company is currently unable to predict the
outcome of this lawsuit.

In November 1996, the Company was named in a suit filed in state court in New
Jersey by a former employee of the Company. The former employee seeks damages
for breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, and for sex
discrimination in violation of the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination,
alleging that the Company terminated her from her position as an Account
Executive on or about January 15, 1996 to avoid paying her commissions to which
she was entitled under her Compensation Plan, and because of her gender. The
lawsuit is in the initial stages of litigation. The Company has denied the
former employee's allegations and intends to vigorously contest the suit. The
Company is currently unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit.
    

Other claims, suits and complaints arise in the ordinary course of the Company's
business. In the opinion of Company management, such pending matters are without
merit or are of such kind, or involve such amounts, as would not have a material
adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the
Company.

NOTE 15: STOCK OPTIONS

The Company maintains two incentive stock option plans (the "ISO Plans"), and
five incentive and nonqualified stock option plans (the "NQSO Plans"). The 1989,
1990, 1991, 1992 and 1994 Plans provide for the grant of both incentive stock
options and nonqualified stock options to employees of the Company. The grant
prices of the various stock option plans range from $2.03 to $8.75.

      Shares of Common Stock have been reserved and issued under the above plans
as follows:

The ISO Plans and the 1989, 1991, 1992 and 1994 Plans provide for the
discretionary grant of options to purchase Common Stock at a price determined by
the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors but, in the case of
incentive stock options, at a price not less than the fair market value thereof
on the date of grant. The options, by their terms, must be exercised within ten
years from the date on which they are granted or within 90 days of employment
termination.

All options fully vest at date of grant except for stock options granted under
the 1989, 1991, 1992 Plans, which vest 25% per year beginning one year after
grant date, and the 1994 Plan, which vests 25% on the grant date and 25% each
year beginning one year after grant date. Under certain circumstances, options
can vest immediately at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors.

On September 2, 1994, in connection with the appointment of a member to the
Company's Board of Directors, the Company granted options for 10,000 shares of
common stock to the board member at its then fair market value of $7.125 per
share. These options vest 25% per year beginning one year after date of grant.
The options, by their terms, must be exercised within ten years from the grant
date or within 90 days of termination from the Board of Directors.

On April 6, 1994, in connection with the acquisition of Granite Products, Inc.
(Note 2), the Company granted a total of 300,000 shares to four Granite
associates. The options were granted at their then fair market value of $7.00
per share. These options vest 25% per year beginning one year after date of
grant. The options, by their terms, must be exercised within ten years from the
date of grant or within 90 days of employment termination. These shares expired
90 days subsequent to the sale of the Western region.

      Information concerning options outstanding as of March 31, 1997, 1996 and
1995 is as follows:
