REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



Administrative Committee
Vickers, Incorporated
 Retirement Savings and Profit Sharing Plan




We have audited the accompanying statements of assets available for plan
benefits of the Vickers, Incorporated Retirement Savings and Profit Sharing
Plan as of March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993 and the related statements of
changes in assets available for plan benefits for the three month period ended
March 31, 1994 and each of the two years in the period ended December 31,
1993.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
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.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the assets available for plan benefits of the Plan at
March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, and the changes in its assets available
for plan benefits for the three month period ended March 31, 1994 and each of
the two years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              VICKERS, INCORPORATED

                                 MARCH 31, 1994
                                        
NOTE 1 - PLAN MERGER

      At March 31, 1994, the Vickers, Incorporated Retirement Savings and
Profit Sharing Plan (the "Plan") and its assets available for plan benefits
were merged into the TRINOVA Corporation Retirement Savings and Profit-Sharing
Plan (the "TRINOVA Plan"), formerly the TRINOVA Corporation Retirement Savings
and Profit Sharing Plan for Corporate Employees.  The operation and provisions
of the TRINOVA Plan are substantially the same as those under the Plan.  The
assets available for plan benefits merged into the TRINOVA Plan amounted to
$138,899,491 and have been included in net transfers to affiliated benefit
plans in the statement of changes in assets available for plan benefits for
the three-month period ended March 31, 1994.

      Additionally, Hazlehurst and Associates was terminated as recordkeeper
of the plan assets and The Vanguard Group was added as trustee and
recordkeeper for the TRINOVA Plan. 

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Accounting

      The accounting records of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis.

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

      Marketable securities are stated at aggregate fair value and are valued
at the last sales price of the valuation period quoted by a national
securities exchange.  The guaranteed investment contracts are stated at
contract value which approximates fair value.  The difference between fair
value and the cost of investments is reflected in the statement of changes in
net assets available for plan benefits as unrealized gains (losses) on
investments. 

      Realized gains or losses on the sales of investments represent the
differences between the proceeds received upon sale and the cost of
investments sold, determined on an average cost basis.

      Investment management fees are paid by the Plan, while all other
administrative expenses of the Plan are currently borne by the Plan's sponsor,
Vickers, Incorporated ("Vickers"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of TRINOVA
Corporation, ("TRINOVA").

Payment of Benefits

      Effective January 1, 1993 the Plan changed its method of accounting for
benefits of employees who have withdrawn from participation in the Plan but
have not yet been paid.  This change was made to conform with new guidance in
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Audit and Accounting
Guide "Audits of Employee Benefit Plans."  The cumulative effect of this
change as of January 1, 1993 and the effect of the change on the 1993
financial statements was not material.

                                       -6-

<PAGE>

NOTE 3 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

      The Plan is a defined contribution plan. Eligible participants
generally include all employees of Vickers.  However, bargaining unit
employees are excluded unless the collective bargaining agreement specifically
authorizes their participation.  Co-op student employees, temporary employees,
leased employees and employees classified as interns are also excluded from
the Plan.

      Participants may contribute to the Plan on a pre-tax basis by salary
reduction up to 15 percent of their annual compensation (in increments of 1
percent).  Vickers will match participant pre-tax contributions dollar for
dollar up to the first 3 percent, and 50 percent of the next 2 percent, of 
each participant's annual compensation.  Participants may also contribute up
to 10 percent of their annual compensation to the Plan on an after-tax basis,
provided that pre-tax contributions have met the limit allowable under IRS 
regulations.  Vickers also makes an annual profit-sharing contribution to the
Plan based upon the return on net assets achieved by Vickers.  All eligible
participants receive a minimum profit-sharing allocation of 1 percent of
annual compensation up to the Social Security wage base and 1.5 percent of
annual compensation in excess of the Social Security wage base regardless of
their level of elective deferrals.  The total amount contributed on behalf of
each eligible participant is subject to calendar-year limits of the Internal
Revenue Code, which are indexed and adjusted for changes in the cost of
living.

      Participants have an immediate and fully-vested interest in the portion
of the Plan accounts represented by their pre-tax and voluntary after-tax
contributions to the Plan, including any earnings on these amounts.  Vickers'
profit-sharing allocations and matching contributions, as well as earnings
thereon, vest after five years of service.  

      If a participant has less than five years of service and employment
ends for a reason other than retirement, disability or death, the participant
forfeits the unvested portion of the account if he or she takes distribution
of the vested portion of the account.  If that participant resumes employment
within the next five years following the date on which termination occurs, and
repays to the Plan the full amount of the distribution, the participant's
account will be restored to the amount on the date of distribution.  Forfeited
balances are used to reduce Vickers' future contributions.

      Each participant individually directs his or her contributions and
Vickers' contributions, except for 25 percent of Vickers' profit-sharing
contribution, into one or more of the following investment funds.  Twenty-five
percent of each participant's profit-sharing allocation is automatically
invested in the TRINOVA Stock Fund.

          (1)  TRINOVA Stock Fund, selected by 3,451 and 3,292 participants at
     March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, respectively, is invested in
     TRINOVA common stock.  Cash dividends paid on shares held by the Trust
     are used to purchase additional shares for participant accounts. 
     Twenty-five percent of each participant's profit-sharing allocation is
     automatically invested in the TRINOVA Stock Fund until distribution to
     the participant or until the participant reaches age 55.  After age 55, 
                                       -7-

<PAGE>

NOTE 3 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (Continued)

     the participant has the option to redirect the investment of the 25
     percent portion from the TRINOVA Stock Fund into any of the other
     available funds.  Participants may elect to have additional amounts over
     Vickers' 25 percent profit-sharing contribution invested in the TRINOVA
     Stock Fund.  TRINOVA common stock is acquired in open market purchases at
     fair market value.

          (2)  Fixed Income Fund, selected by 3,267 and 3,401 participants at
     March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, respectively, is invested in
     insurance company investment contracts, bank investment contracts and
     their equivalent.  These contracts have a specified interest rate for a
     period of one to five years.  Approximately every three months, Vickers 
     announces the interest rate which will be paid on all monies that are in
     the Fixed Income Fund.  This interest rate is a single blended rate of
     the interest rates being paid on each of the contracts in force during
     that period.  New contracts are negotiated with insurance companies or
     financial institutions rated AA+ by Standard and Poors or its equivalent
     and have a maximum average contract life of five years.  

          (3)  Multi-Asset Fund, selected by 1,741 and 1,571 participants at
     March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, respectively, is invested in nine
     major world capital classes, including stocks and bonds of U.S. and 
     international companies, venture capital, real estate and cash         
     equivalents. Brinson Partners, Inc. is the investment manager of the
     Multi-Asset Fund.  This investment option was terminated effective March 
     31, 1994.  Cash and cash equivalents from the liquidation of the fund's
     shares will be transferred to the Vanguard Star Fund, which is a new
     investment option under the TRINOVA Plan.

          (4)  Government Securities Fund, selected by 498 and 530
     participants at March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993 respectively, is
     invested in fixed income securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
     Government, or its agents or instrumentalities.  These securities include
     U.S. Treasury bills, notes and bonds.  The Government Securities Fund
     seeks to provide a high level of current income, consistent with the
     preservation of capital.  Ryan Labs., Inc. is the investment manager of
     the Government Securities Fund.  This investment option was terminated
     effective March 31, 1994.  Cash and cash equivalents from the liquidation
     of the fund's shares will be transferred to the Vanguard Money Market
     Reserve - U.S. Treasury Portfolio Funds, which is a new investment option
     under the TRINOVA Plan.

          (5)  Vanguard Funds, selected by 1,937 and 1,626 participants at
     March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, respectively, is managed by The
     Vanguard Group of Investment Companies.  There are four individual mutual
     funds in which participants may invest:

          (a)  Vanguard Index Trust - 500 Portfolio Fund (Index Fund):  Money
     in the Index Fund is invested in stocks of the companies which make up
     the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index.  The objective of
     the Index Fund is to match the performance of the Standard & Poor's 500
     Index.

NOTE 3 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (Continued)

          (b)  Vanguard/Windsor II Fund (Windsor II Fund):  Money in the
     Windsor II Fund is invested in stocks which, in the opinion of the fund's
     investment manager, are undervalued in the marketplace.  The stocks held
     in the Windsor II Fund tend to offer above-average dividend yields and
     will normally have below-average price-to earnings ratios and below-
     average price-to-book value ratios relative to the stock market in
     general.

          (c)  Vanguard/Morgan Growth Fund (Morgan Growth Fund):  Money in the
     Morgan Growth Fund is invested primarily in stocks of "established
     growth" companies.  The companies will normally be medium and larger
     size companies with above-average growth in sales and earnings over
     extended periods.

          (d)  Vanguard - International Growth Portfolio Fund (International
     Growth Fund):  Money in the International Growth Fund is invested in non-
     U.S. stocks that have been selected for their growth potential.  The
     International Growth Fund tends to be widely diversified both
     geographically and in terms of size of companies.

          Participants of the Plan have general purpose and home loans
available.  The minimum loan permitted is $1,000.  Under a general purpose or
home loan, a participant may borrow up to the lesser of one-half of his or her
vested account balances or the total of his or her pre-tax, match and roll-in
contributions to the Plan, up to a maximum of $50,000.  In no event may the
aggregate amount of loans exceed $50,000.  All loans will be repaid to the 
Plan in equal installments through payroll deductions over a period up to five
years for general purpose and twenty years for home loans.  Interest is
charged at a reasonable rate, as determined by the Administrative Committee.

          Vickers reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate the Plan at
any time.

NOTE 4 - BENEFITS

          A participant is entitled to the benefit provided by the
contributions and income thereon (including realized and unrealized gains and
losses) allocated to the participant's account.

          Upon termination of employment due to retirement, total and
permanent disability or death, a participant or his or her spousal beneficiary
will be entitled to receive distribution of the participant's entire account
without regard to the Plan's vesting rules: (i) in one lump sum amount; or
(ii) in monthly installments of a fixed amount or over a specified period of
time in an amount of at least $100 per month.  Distribution payments to non-
spousal beneficiaries will be made in a lump sum only.  If the value of a
participant's account is less than $3,500, the Plan Administrator will 
distribute the participant's entire interest in one lump sum payment. 



                                       -9-

NOTE 4 - BENEFITS (Continued)

          Withdrawals of pre-tax contributions and Vickers' profit-sharing and
matching contributions during a participant's employment are not permitted
prior to age 59-1/2, unless the participant can show financial hardship for
which he or she has no other available resources.  Such situations are limited
to: (i) certain medical expenses; (ii) payment of tuition and related
educational fees for post-secondary education for the next year; (iii) costs
related to the purchase of a principal residence; or (iv) payments necessary 
to avoid eviction from, or a foreclosure on the mortgage of, the participant's
principal residence.

NOTE 5 - INCOME TAX STATUS

          The Plan has received a favorable determination letter from the
Internal Revenue Service as to the tax qualified status of the Plan under
Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and is, therefore, not subject to
Federal income tax.  This letter does not express an opinion as to whether the
Plan satisfies the provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986.  Such a letter
has been requested.  Vickers believes that the Plan is in operational
compliance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and will remain qualified
and exempt from Federal income taxes.

NOTE 6 - TAX EFFECTS ON PLAN PARTICIPANTS

          A proportionate amount of any withdrawal during employment from a
participant's Plan account attributable to after-tax, voluntary contributions
after 1986 will be treated as a distribution of earnings on such
contributions, and the remaining amount of the withdrawal will be considered a
return of the participant's after-tax, voluntary contributions.  After-tax
voluntary contributions made prior to 1987 may be withdrawn in whole or in
part without their applicable earnings.  The amount considered as a return of
the participant's after-tax, voluntary contributions will not be subject to 
Federal income tax.  However, the amount withdrawn that constitutes earnings
on after-tax, voluntary contributions and any amount withdrawn during
employment from a participant's Plan account attributable to pre-tax salary
reduction contributions and Vickers' matching contributions will be subject to
Federal income tax at ordinary income tax rates and may be subject to an
additional excise tax, as described below.

          The amount of a distribution received in a lump sum equal to a
participant's after-tax, voluntary contributions not previously withdrawn due
to retirement, death, total and permanent disability, or termination of
employment for any other reason is not subject to Federal income tax.  The 
amount of the lump sum distribution in excess of a participant's after-tax,
voluntary contributions not previously withdrawn is subject to Federal income
tax at ordinary income tax rates.  However, the taxable portion of a
qualifying lump sum distribution may be eligible under certain circumstances
for special ten-year or five-year averaging or capital gains treatment. 
Whether a lump sum distribution qualifies for special ten-year or five-year
averaging or capital gains treatment depends upon, among other things, the
participant's age, employment status, and dates of participation in the Plan. 
If a participant receives TRINOVA common stock as part of a lump sum
distribution, the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the common stock

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

NOTE 6 - TAX EFFECTS ON PLAN PARTICIPANTS (Continued)

over the cost of the common stock is not subject to Federal income tax at the
time of distribution but generally will be subject to Federal income tax upon
any subsequent disposition of the common stock.  However, a participant may
elect, on the tax return on which the distribution is required to be included,
not to have such excess excluded from Federal income tax in the year of
distribution, in which case the excess will be taxed in that year.

          If a distribution is made in installments, then the pro rata portion
of each installment attributable to a participant's after-tax, voluntary 
contributions not previously withdrawn is not subject to Federal income tax,
and the remaining portion is taxed at ordinary Federal income tax rates.

          Any lump sum distribution that a participant received from the Plan
will generally be subject to mandatory tax withholding.  The Plan will
withhold 20 percent of the taxable part of the participant's distribution to
pay federal income tax.

          Certain penalty taxes may be imposed on the taxable portion of a
distribution or withdrawal from the Plan.  The taxable portion of an in-
service distribution made to a participant prior to age 59-1/2 will be subject
to a 10 percent penalty tax unless certain exceptions apply.  In addition, the
taxable portion of a distribution or withdrawal from the Plan and from an
individual retirement account (IRA) may be subject to a 15 percent excise tax
to the extent they aggregate more than a certain amount during any year.

          Loans from the Plan are generally not considered a distribution or a
withdrawal for Federal income tax purposes unless the participant terminates
employment with an outstanding loan balance and fails to retire that balance
in full within 90 days.  

          A participant, under certain circumstances, may directly roll over
amounts distributed from the Plan to another qualified plan or an individual
retirement plan (IRA) and avoid mandatory federal withholding and penalty
taxes.
          Participant contributions made on a pre-tax salary reduction basis
are not taxed for Federal income tax purposes until actually distributed and
are not considered wages for Federal income tax withholding purposes, but are
considered wages for Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) purposes.

          Participant after-tax, voluntary contributions are taxed for Federal
income tax purposes when made, and are subject to withholding and FICA taxes
at that time.

          Matching contributions and other employer contributions are not
included in the participant's taxable wages for federal income tax purposes
when paid to the Plan, and are not considered wages for federal income tax
purposes or FICA purposes.

NOTE 7 - VALUE OF INTEREST IN MASTER TRUST

     The Plan's investments, except for loans, are held in safekeeping by The
Northern Trust Company as Trustee under a Master Trust Agreement (the "Master
Trust").  The Master Trust holds the investment assets for the Plan and other
designated defined contribution plans of Vickers, its parent TRINOVA and
TRINOVA's other subsidiary.  The following table presents the fair values of
investments for the Master Trust:

     At March 31, 1994 the assets of the Plan were merged into the TRINOVA
Plan,therefore,the Plan has zero interest in the net assets of the Master
Trust at that date.  At December 31, 1993, the Plan's interest in the net
assets of the Master Trust was approximately 31.8 percent.  The Plan's
interest in any one Master Trust fund does not correspond to the Plan's
overall interest in the Master Trust as participants in each plan select their
individual investment options.  Investment income and administrative expenses
related to the Master Trust are allocated to the individual plans based upon
average monthly balances invested by each plan.

NOTE 7 - VALUE OF INTEREST IN MASTER TRUST (Continued)
     
     At December 31, 1993, the Fixed Income Fund of the Plan holds an
investment in an Executive Life Insurance Company (Executive Life) guaranteed
investment contract that was to have expired in 1991 in the amount of
$1,141,909.  In 1991, First Executive Corporation, the parent of Executive
Life Insurance Company, filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the Federal
Bankruptcy Code.  State insurance regulators have taken control of Executive
Life, as well as other investments of the parent.  A Plan of Rehabilitation
was filed on September 6, 1991 in the Superior Court of the State of
California for the County of Los Angeles and was approved on August 31, 1993. 
The Plan of Rehabilitation became effective on September 3, 1993 and provides
for a minimum of approximately 75 percent of the contract principal to be
repaid after a minimum rehabilitation period of five years.

     Also, at December 31, 1993, the Fixed Income Fund of the Plan holds
investments in Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company (Mutual Benefit)
guaranteed investment contracts totaling $1,910,628, of which $841,994 was to

Rehabilitation became effective on April 29, 1994 and provides for the
contract principal to be repaid over a five-year period from 1999 through
2003.  The repayment dates may be extended if warranted by Mutual Benefit's
