                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
of Symbios, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Symbios, Inc. as
of December 31, 1997, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
cash flows and shareholder's equity for the year then ended. 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 audit.

We conducted our audit 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 the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's
ultimate parent, Hyundai Electronics Industries Co., Ltd. ("HEI") is located in
the Republic of Korea. The Republic of Korea has recently experienced
instability in its currency and interest rates which have affected the
operations of most Korean companies, including HEI. HEI is a guarantor of the
debt of Hyundai Electronics America (HEA), the Company's immediate parent.
Subsequent to December 31, 1997, HEA has pledged the Symbios, Inc. stock it owns
as collateral for Symbios, Inc. debt and has borrowed $150 million from Symbios,
Inc.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Symbios, Inc. as
of December 31, 1997, and the consolidated results of their operations and their
cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

                             (Dollars in thousands)

1.      Basis of Presentation and Defining the Entity:

        Symbios, Inc. ("the Company") was acquired by Hyundai Electronics
        America ("HEA") on February 15, 1995. HEA is a majority owned subsidiary
        of Hyundai Electronics Industries Co., Ltd. ("HEI"), a Korean
        corporation. HEI is a member of the Hyundai Group of companies (see Note
        18). The Company previously operated as the Microelectronic Products
        Division ("MPD" or "Predecessor") of AT&T Global Information Solutions
        ("AT&T GIS"). MPD was incorporated as Symbios, Inc. immediately prior to
        its acquisition by HEA.

        The Company designs, manufactures, markets and supports ASICs for
        peripheral and storage systems connectivity, peripheral controller
        electronics, host adapter integrated circuits and boards and a complete
        line of RAID storage systems, subsystems and related software.

        The Company's financial statements include the consolidated accounts of
        the Company's two divisions and its subsidiaries. All significant
        intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

        Effective February 16, 1995, HEA, its parent company, HEI and the
        Company entered into a Patent Agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, HEA
        assigned to the Company a joint ownership interest in certain patents
        and patent applications acquired by HEA from AT&T GIS for $40,000. In
        exchange, the Company issued to SLSI, a subsidiary of HEA, 4 million
        additional preferred shares and granted HEA a joint ownership interest
        in the Company's patent applications and patents issued after February
        16, 1995, and before the termination date of the agreement. HEI also
        granted the Company a license to its patents and the patents of its
        subsidiaries. HEA and HEI agreed to pay to the Company certain royalties
        received from third-party licensees of the co-owned patents. In
        exchange, the Company agreed to pay HEA any royalties it received from
        third-party licensees of its co-owned patents. The agreement is
        effective until the later of (a) February 16, 2005, or (b) such time as
        the Company is no longer a direct or indirect subsidiary of HEA. The
        Company has accounted for the $40,000 of preferred stock as receipt of
        patents and technology since the applicable intellectual property (i) is
        used by the Company to generate revenues, (ii) was previously used by
        the Company and (iii) the acquisition of the rights were made in
        connection with the acquisition of the Company (See also Note 21).


2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

        Cash and Cash Equivalents:

        Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with
        original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are
        principally composed of money market mutual fund investments and
        certificates of deposit. Money market mutual fund investments of
        approximately $14,300 as of December 31, 1997, are classified as
        available-for-sale investments. Certificates of deposit of approximately
        $40,000 as of December 31, 1997 are classified as held-to-maturity
        investments. Book value approximates fair value for both types of
        investments and there are no unrealized gains or losses as of December
        31, 1997. All investments are included in cash and cash equivalents for
        financial statement purposes.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

        Cash and Cash Equivalents, continued:

             Available cash is held on deposit at three federally insured
             financial institutions. The Company has not experienced any
             material losses relating to any short term financial instruments.

        Inventory:

             Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
             determined by using the average cost on a first-in, first-out
             basis.

        Property, Plant and Equipment:

             Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is
             computed for financial reporting purposes principally by use of the
             straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
             Buildings and their components are depreciated over 25 years.
             Office furniture, fixtures and equipment are depreciated over five
             years, except for computer equipment which is depreciated over
             three years.

             Gains or losses on the sale of property, plant and equipment are
             recognized in the period of disposition of the asset. Betterments
             which extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized. Repairs
             and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

        Preoperating and Start-up Costs:

        The Company expenses preoperating and start-up costs.

        Software:

             The Company capitalizes the cost of software acquired from vendors.
             The Company also capitalizes certain costs of developing software
             for internal use. Such costs are amortized over their estimated
             useful lives of five years on a straight line basis. Costs totaling
             $4,665 were capitalized during the year ended December 31, 1997,
             related to software for internal use.

             The Company incurs costs to develop software used in hardware
             products sold to customers. The software development costs incurred
             subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility are
             immaterial to the financial statements.

        Intangible Assets:

             Intellectual property rights, including patents and trademarks, are
             amortized over their estimated useful lives of five years using the
             sum of the years digit method. Goodwill arising from the
             acquisition of the Company in 1995 represents the excess of cost
             over fair value of net assets acquired and is being amortized over
             seven years using the straight-line method.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

        Long-Lived Assets:

             In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
             Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") Statement No.
             121 ("SFAS 121"), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
             Assets and for Long-Lived Assets Disposed Of," which requires
             impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in
             operations when indicators of impairment are present and the
             undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets
             are less than the assets' carrying amounts.

        Warranties:

             A provision has been recorded for expected costs to be incurred as
             a result of customer product warranties at the time the sale is
             recognized. The Company warrants that products will be free from
             defects in workmanship and materials for one to five years from the
             date of shipment.

        Deferred Revenue and Revenue Recognition:

             Revenue from direct product sales to customers is recognized upon
             shipment. Certain of the Company's sales are made to distributors
             under agreements with stock rotation provisions, price protection
             on inventory held by distributors and contract termination clauses.
             Accordingly, the Company defers recognition of such sales until the
             merchandise is sold by the distributors to a third party.

             The Company accrues for the estimated loss on sales commitments for
             which the anticipated production costs of sales exceed the related
             selling price.

        Research and Development Expenses:

             Expenditures incurred for research and development of products are
             expensed as incurred.

        Stock-Based Compensation:

             The Company uses the intrinsic value method of Accounting
             Principles Board Opinion No. 25 to account for all of its employee
             stock-based compensation plans.

        Accounting for Income Taxes:

        Under the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for
        Income Taxes," deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
        the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
        financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing
        assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates
        expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary
        differences are expected to reverse.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

        Accounting for Income Taxes, continued:

             The currently payable and deferred income taxes in the accompanying
             financial statements have been calculated as if the Company was a
             separate entity, except for the research and experimentation credit
             (see Note 8).

        Earnings Per Share:

             In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
             SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which is effective for periods
             ending after December 15, 1997. The Company adopted SFAS 128 in
             1997. SFAS 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted
             earnings per share. The basic earnings per share are computed using
             the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Dilutive
             earnings per share include the weighted-average of common shares
             outstanding, outstanding convertible preferred stock and
             outstanding stock options which have dilutive potential. The net
             income used to calculate the basic and diluted earnings per share
             has been reduced by the $30,266 preferred stock dividend.

        Derivative Financial Instruments:

             The Company uses derivative financial instruments, including
             interest rate swaps and forward exchange contracts, as part of an
             overall risk-management strategy. These instruments are used as a
             means of hedging exposure to foreign currency and interest rate
             risk connected to firm commitments or capital lease obligations.
             The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments
             for trading or speculative purposes.

             Hedge accounting is applied if the derivative reduces the risk of
             the underlying hedged item and is designated at inception as a
             hedge. Additionally, changes in the value of the derivative must
             result in payoffs that are highly correlated to the changes in
             value of the hedged item. Derivatives are measured for
             effectiveness both at inception and on an ongoing basis. The
             Company enters into foreign exchange contracts that are designated
             as and effective as hedges for firmly committed purchases.

             The Company uses interest rate swaps to synthetically change its
             variable-rate capital lease obligations to fixed rate obligations.
             These derivatives are designated and effective as hedges at
             inception and on an ongoing basis, and their terms are aligned with
             the capital lease.

             Gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts accounted for as
             hedges are deferred in other current assets or liabilities. The
             deferred gains and losses are recognized as adjustments to the
             underlying hedged transaction when the future sales or purchases
             are recognized. Interest rate swap payments and receipts are
             recorded as part of interest expense. The fair value of the swap
             contracts is not recognized in the financial statements (see Note
             11 for fair values). Cash flows from derivatives are recognized in
             the consolidated statement of cash flows in the same category as
             the item being hedged.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

        Derivative Financial Instruments, continued:

             If a derivative instrument ceases to meet the criteria for
             deferral, any subsequent gains or losses are recognized in
             operations. If a firm commitment does not occur, the foreign
             exchange contract is terminated and any gain or loss is recognized
             in operations. If a hedging instrument is sold or terminated prior
             to maturity, gains or losses continue to be deferred until the
             hedged item is recognized. Should a swap be terminated while the
             underlying capital lease obligation remains outstanding, the gain
             or loss is capitalized as part of the underlying lease obligation
             and amortized into interest expense over the remaining term of the
             lease obligation.

        Comprehensive Income:

             In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
             issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 130,
             "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which is effective for periods
             beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS 130 establishes standards
             for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
             components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements.
             The Company adopted SFAS 130 in 1997.

        Estimates and Industry Factors:

             The preparation of these 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 the reported amounts of revenues and
             expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates are
             required with respect to the ultimate realization of accounts
             receivable and inventories, as well as amounts of revenue to be
             deferred, among others. Actual results could differ from those
             estimates.

             The market for the Company's products is characterized by rapidly
             changing technology, evolving industry standards and marketing
             channels and changing customer needs. Seasonality, fluctuating
             market pricing, inventory obsolescence, changes in availability of
             critical components, the ability to implement new manufacturing
             technologies, the effect of product reviews and industry awards and
             the timing of new product introductions by the Company and its
             competitors all play a significant role in determining operating
             results for a given period of time. The Company's success
             therefore, will depend in part on current products, development of
             new products and systems on a timely and cost-effective basis and
             the Company's ability to continue to respond to changing customer
             needs and rapid paced technological developments.

        On December 28, 1995, the Company entered into a $57,049 sale-leaseback
        arrangement with respect to semiconductor production equipment. On March
        11, 1996, the Company entered into a $16,982 sale-leaseback arrangement
        for semiconductor equipment purchased prior to December 31, 1995. On
        November 11, 1996, the Company entered into a $34,403 sale-leaseback
        arrangement for semiconductor equipment. These sale-leaseback
        arrangements are collateralized by the aforementioned semiconductor
        equipment and have a five year term, with an option to renew for one
        year.

        On December 22, 1995, the Company entered into a $12,000 office building
        Lease Agreement and Construction Loan Agreement maturing on April 30,
        2000. At December 31, 1996, the Company had borrowed the full $12,000
        permitted under these agreements. This lease is collateralized by an
        office building.

7.      Capital Leases, continued:

        On May 23, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement for software
        licenses and related technical support for $3,108 payable in three
        annual installments beginning June 30, 1997.

        Rent payments with respect to the capital lease obligations are
        dependent on the stated interest rates in the lease agreements which are
        variable. The future minimum lease payments are based on the interest
        rate in effect at December 31, 1997. Stated interest rates on the
        capital lease obligations ranged from 3.8% to 8.5% at December 31, 1997.
        See Note 11 for information on the related interest rate swaps used by
        the Company to effectively fix the effective interest rates on these
        leases. The Company's operating lease commitments, expiring in various
        years through 2002, are summarized in Note 16.

        The approximate future minimum lease payments under these capital leases
        for the four years subsequent to December 31, 1997 and in the aggregate
        are:

8.      Income Taxes:

        The Company is a member of the HEA affiliated group of corporations
        which files a consolidated federal income tax return and various
        consolidated and separate state income tax returns. All members of the
        group have entered into a tax allocation agreement which provides for
        the allocation of federal and state consolidated income tax liability
        based upon each members proportionate share of taxable income
        contributing to such liability. To the extent that any member of the
        group currently utilizes the tax benefits of another member, the member
        utilizing those benefits shall currently reimburse such other member for
        those benefits. To the extent that HEA currently utilizes any other
        member's tax benefits, HEA is obligated to reimburse such member only
        when HEA would have been

        able to utilize such benefits giving consideration to any separate HEA
        tax benefit carryforwards. The tax sharing agreement with HEA does not
        permit the Company to take a benefit for a research and experimentation
        credit ("R&E") and the income tax expense does not reflect an R&E
        credit. During the fourth quarter of 1995, the tax allocation agreement
        was amended to provide the Company with an additional $20,000 of tax
        benefits related to the intellectual property rights acquired from AT&T
        GIS.

        The Company records a valuation allowance based, in part, upon filing
        taxes as a member of this affiliated group.

        Significant components of the Company's deferred tax accounts as of
        December 31, 1997 are detailed below:

        Deferred income taxes reflect the net effects of temporary differences
        between the carrying amounts of assets for financial reporting purposes
        and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Due to uncertainties about
        the recoverability of the deferred tax asset at December 31, 1997, the
        Company recorded a deferred tax asset valuation allowance in the amount
        of $6,122.

9.      Long-Term Credit Facility:

        On December 28, 1995, the Company entered into a $70 million Credit
        Facility which matures on December 28, 1998. Effective June 30, 1997,
        the Company amended its Credit Facility which included increasing the
        credit line by $30 million to $100 million, changing from a
        collateralized to uncollateralized line, lowering the interest rate, and
        changing the due date to January 31, 1999. The revised loan agreement
        permits the Company to make advances to HEA of up to $30 million. At
        December 31, 1997, the Company had no borrowings under the agreement. As
        of December 31, 1997, the variable interest rate on this agreement
        (London InterBank Offered Rate "LIBOR" plus .75%,) was approximately
        6.4%. Commitment fees accrue on the unused portion of the revolving line
        of credit and the Lease Agreement and Construction Loan Agreement
        discussed in Note 7. Commitment and agency fees of $227 were paid in
        1997.

        The terms of the credit and capital lease agreements (see Note 7)
        require the Company to maintain minimum levels of tangible net worth,
        working capital and capitalization ratios. In addition, payments of
        dividends and expenditures for property, plant and equipment and loans
        to affiliates are restricted. The Company obtained the necessary lender
        and lessor approvals for loans and dividends made during 1997. See Note
        21 for a discussion of the subsequent collateralized credit facility
        entered into on February 26, 1998.

10.     Intercompany Credit Agreements:

        On March 20, 1997, the Company loaned $30 million to HEA at 7.55%
        interest. The loan plus accrued interest was repaid in full on April 9,
        1997. On August 22, 1997 and August 28, 1997, the Company loaned $20
        million and $10 million, respectively, to HEA at 7.7% interest per annum
        and due on December 30, 1997. In October 1997, the Company and HEA
        entered into discussions regarding the structure for an initial public
        offering. Those discussions resulted in the Board of Directors approving
        on November 11, 1997, the Company making a dividend of the note to HEA.
        Of the $30.266 million dividend declared, $20.4 million was paid in 1997
        by dividending that amount of the note to HEA with the remainder paid in
        1998 by dividending the remaining balance of the note. On December 12,
        1997, the Company loaned $30 million to HEA at an interest rate of LIBOR
        plus 200 basis points (approximately 7.9% at December 31, 1997). The
        loan is due March 8, 1998. Because of the uncertainty as to repayment of
        this loan, the Company has shown it as a reduction of shareholder's
        equity in the accompanying financial statements. See Note 21 for a
        discussion regarding the subsequent dividend of this amount to HEA on
        March 6, 1998.


11.     Interest Rate and Foreign Currency Risk Management:

        Interest Rate Swap Contracts:

             The Company uses interest rate swap contracts to adjust a
             proportion of the capital leases that are subject to variable
             interest rates. This protects the Company from increases in the
             variable rate indices and locks in a constant interest rate on the
             capital leases.

             Under interest rate swap contracts, the Company agrees with another
             party to exchange interest payments monthly. Interest payments are
             calculated by reference to the notional amount based on the
             fixed-rate and variable-rate terms of the swap agreements. The net
             interest received or paid as part of the interest rate swap is
             accounted for as an adjustment to interest expense.

             The counterparties to these interest rate contracts are major U.S.
             and International financial institutions. The Company is exposed to
             credit loss in the event of nonperformance by these counterparties.
             The Company manages this risk by monitoring the credit standing and
             reviewing the financial statements of the counterparty. Risk of
             nonperformance by the counterparties does not appear to be probable
             and no loss due to nonperformance is currently anticipated.

             At December 31, 1997, the Company had interest rate swap contracts
             to pay fixed-rates of interest (weighted average of 6.3%) and
             receive floating-rates of interest (average 30-day LIBOR plus 135
             basis points - 5.8%) on $82.7 million notional amount of
             indebtedness. Approximately 12.3% or $12,000 of the Company's
             underlying capital lease indebtedness is still subject to variable
             interest rates.

        Interest Rate Swap Contracts, continued:

             Based on the level of interest rates prevailing at December 31,
             1997, the Company would have had a $403 unrealized loss on the
             termination of its interest rate swaps. Unrealized gains or losses
             on debt or interest rate swaps are not recognized for financial
             reporting purposes unless the debt is retired or the swap contracts
             are terminated prior to their maturity.

11.     Interest Rate and Foreign Currency Risk Management, continued:

        Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts:

             Foreign currency exchange contracts are used to manage exposure to
             changes in currency exchange rates. The use of foreign currency
             exchange contracts allows the Company to reduce its exposure to the
             risk that the eventual dollar net cash inflows and outflows
             resulting from the sale of products to foreign customers and
             purchases from foreign suppliers will be adversely affected by
             changes in exchange rates. The foreign currency exchange contracts
             are designated as hedges for firmly committed purchases. These
             transactions are generally expected to occur in one year or less.
             However, due to the long lead times in ordering semiconductor
             manufacturing equipment certain exchange contracts may exceed one
             year.

             The Company also funds foreign operations with foreign currencies
             and may from time to time enter into exchange contracts to control
             currency risk associated with funding foreign operations.

             At December 31, 1997, the Company had fixed rate contracts of
             foreign currencies for the sale of $4,978 and purchase of $5,615.

        The net increase in the above contract values of $637 offset a similar
        decrease in the actual cost of the equipment purchased due to the change
        in the exchange ratio for the dollar and guilder.

        During 1996, the Company entered into a March 14, 1997 "buy" contract in
        connection with an agreement to purchase a specific piece of equipment.
        At the time the Company elected not to purchase this particular piece of
        equipment, the Company entered into offsetting "sell" contracts for
        March 14, 1997. The related net loss of $149 on these offsetting
        contracts was recorded as a reduction of net income in 1997.

12.     Employee Benefit Plans:

        The Company provides a voluntary 401(k) plan (the "401(k) Plan") in
        which all U.S. employees of the Company may participate. Employees may
        make any combination of pre-tax and after-tax contributions up to 15% of
        their annual compensation subject to an annual dollar limitation
        provided by the Internal Revenue Code. The Company provides 150%
        employer matching contribution on the first 2% of employee
        contributions, provides 75% employer matching contribution on the next
        1% of employee contributions and 50% employer matching contribution on
        the next 3% of employee contributions. Maximum employer matching
        contribution is therefore 5.25% on employee contributions of 6% of pay
        or more. Vesting of employer contributions is 25% per year at the end of
        each year of full time service. Additionally, employees who have at
        least four full years of continuous service with NCR, AT&T GIS and/or
        the Company are fully vested in their account. Contributions are
        therefore fully vested after four years. For the year ended December 31,
        1997, employer matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan were $4,400.

        During year ended December 31, 1996, the Company began providing a
        Retirement Performance Account plan (the "RPA") for all of its U.S.
        employees. Under the RPA, depending on the level of financial
        performance of the Company, a certain portion of the Company's annual
        profits will be allocated to employee 401(k) Plan accounts as a
        discretionary employer contribution. For the 1997 fiscal year, employees
        may receive a discretionary contribution equal to up to 3% of their
        annual compensation if the Company achieves its financial objectives in
        1997. Vesting of employer contributions under the RPA is the same as for
        the 401(k) Plan described above. For the year ended December 31, 1997,
        employer matching contributions of $2,277 were made to the 401(k) Plan
        on behalf of the RPA.

        The Company has a discretionary management bonus and employee profit
        sharing arrangement with its management and employees. The Board of
        Directors approves the bonus formula on an annual basis. For 1997, the
        Company recognized expense of $11,687 related to the arrangement.


13.     Shareholder's Equity:

        Authorized Stock:

             Effective February 15, 1995, the Board of Directors adopted a
             resolution pursuant to which the Company authorized 40 million
             shares and issued 30 million shares of its $0.10 par value $0.60
             per share noncumulative, voting, convertible Series A preferred
             stock to a subsidiary of HEA (SLSI) in exchange for all the common
             stock of the Company held by SLSI (see Note 1). The Company has
             issued an additional 4 million shares of the Series A preferred
             stock to SLSI in exchange for HEA granting the Company a joint
             ownership interest in certain patents and patent applications
             acquired

13.     Shareholder's Equity, continued:

        Authorized Stock, continued:

             from AT&T GIS for $40,000. In December 1997, SLSI was merged into
             HEA and as a result, HEA now directly owns the preferred stock of
             the Company. The preferred stock has a liquidation preference of
             $10.00 per share. Each share of the preferred stock is convertible
             into one share of common stock at the option of the shareholder or
             automatically converts into common stock upon an initial public
             offering ("IPO"). The preferred stock has voting rights equal to
             those of the common stock. In addition, the Company has authorized
             40 million shares of common stock with a par value of $0.02 per
             share. Of this amount, 34 million shares of the common stock are
             reserved for the conversion of the Series A preferred stock to
             common stock. The Company must fully pay any outstanding declared
             dividends on the preferred stock before paying any dividend on
             common stock.

        1995 Stock Plan:

             The Company has adopted an incentive stock plan ("the Plan") under
             which the Company's directors are authorized to grant either
             restricted common stock purchase rights or common stock options to
             management, employees, consultants and outside directors of the
             Company ("each Grantee"). The Plan is authorized to grant 10% of
             the Company's outstanding equity stock (3,777,777 shares as of
             December 31, 1997).

             The Company is obligated pursuant to agreements with the holders of
             the restricted common stock to provide a stock liquidity event
             contingent upon the Company attaining a predetermined market
             valuation. If at any time on or before August 31, 1998, the Company
             receives advice from an investment banking firm that it is possible
             for the Company to successfully complete a public offering of its
             common stock at a valuation in excess of $550 million, or at any
             time after August 31, 1998 but before August 31, 1999, the Company
             receives advice from an investment banking firm that it is possible
             for the Company to successfully complete a public offering of its
             common stock at a valuation in excess of $680 million, then the
             Company can either commence an initial public offering or it will
             have the obligation to buy back the restricted common stock at a
             price equal to the fair market value of the stock at that time. At
             the Company's option, the Company can purchase both the vested and
             unvested shares at the current fair market value, or alternatively,
             purchase only the currently vested shares with future annual
             purchases of newly vested shares at the then current fair market
             value. The Company records a charge to earnings over the vesting
             period of the awards, beginning with the date it becomes probable
             the Company will achieve the valuations noted above, for the
             difference between the exercise price or purchase price of the
             options or stock awards and the IPO price.

13.     Shareholder's Equity, continued:

        1995 Stock Plan, continued:

             If the aforementioned valuations are not attained by the specified
             dates, then the Company may offer to buy back the common stock at a
             price equal to the fair market value of the stock at that time. Any
             vested shares not reacquired by August 31, 2005 must be repurchased
             at each Grantee's initial purchase price plus accrued interest at
             that date.

             The shares of issued restricted common stock vest 10% upon issue,
             with the balance vesting ratably over the following 48 months. The
             restricted common stock will continue to vest only so long as each
             Grantee continues to be employed by the Company. Twenty-five
             percent of the options vest on the first anniversary date of the
             grant and the remainder of the options vest ratably over a
             three-year period. All restricted common stock is held in escrow
             with the Company's Secretary who is authorized by each Grantee to
             vote the shares in accordance with the instructions of the Company.

        Stock Buyback Program:

             In August 1997, the Board of Directors approved the Company making
             an offer to all employees and directors to purchase their vested
             and unvested restricted stock and stock options. The Board of
             Directors set the purchase price at the fair market value of $13
             per share. The Company also agreed to reimburse certain employees
             approximately $1.2 million in 1998, for the incremental income
             taxes they incur in excess of the applicable capital gains rate.
             Employees with stock options exercised their options, and then sold
             the restricted stock to the Company. In September 1997, 2,231,941
             shares of common stock were purchased pursuant to the voluntary
             program.

             The directors and employees who accepted the Company's voluntary
             offer were granted replacement stock options equal in number to the
             number of shares of stock they sold to the Company. The new options
             were granted at the fair market value of $13. The replacement stock
             options do not include the terms in the original restricted stock
             and stock options that required the Company to repurchase the
             restricted stock or stock options under certain liquidity events.
             The replacement stock options vest 33% on June 30, 1998 and 22% on

        Because the determination of the fair value of all options granted if
        the Company becomes a public entity will include an expected volatility
        factor in addition to the factors described in the preceding paragraph
        and, because additional option grants are expected to be made each year,
        the above pro forma disclosures are not representative of pro forma
        effects of reported net income for future years.

        The convertible preferred stock and stock options are not included in
        the 1997 calculations because they would be antidilutive.


15.     Fab Closure Costs:

        In August 1997, the Board of Directors approved and the Company
        announced to its employees its intention to phase out the Fort Collins
        fabrication plant with final closure occurring by December 31, 1997. The
        shutdown is a result of the low utilization levels experienced and the
        older technology of the plant. The fab closure charges of $11,547
        reflected in the year ended December 31, 1997 are directly related to
        the closure of the Fort Collins fabrication facility. There were 157
        employees, primarily manufacturing employees, working in the Fort
        Collins facility were terminated when the plant closed in 1997. Another
        37 employees are expected to be relocated to the Company's Colorado
        Springs facility. The estimated relocation and other costs totaling
        approximately $1.5 million will be charged to operations when incurred.
        Relocation and other costs totaling $600 were charged to operations
        during the year ended December 31, 1997.

</TABLE>

        The Company has estimated the costs associated with the decision to
        close the Fort Collins facility and these other matters based on the
        best information available when the decision was made to close the
        facility. The liability will be utilized when specific criteria are met
        indicating the planned action has occurred. Although the Company
        believes its estimates to be reasonable, actual costs associated with
        these plans may differ. Therefore, the Company may, in future periods,
        need to change its estimated costs associated with the fab closure as
        more information becomes available.

</TABLE>


        In December 1997, the Company entered into a contract for construction
        of a new engineering center building in Fort Collins, Colorado. This
        building is expected to be completed by December 31, 1998 at a cost of
        approximately $17 million.

        Rent expense for the year ended December 31, 1997 was $3,437.


17.     Related Parties:

        The Company enters into transactions with HEA, HEI and Maxtor
        Peripherals, in which HEA is an investor. These related party
        transactions are principally comprised of the purchase of assembly
        services and foundered wafers from HEI, sales of storage systems
        products to HEI, and sales of drive electronic semiconductors to Maxtor
        Peripherals. Related party purchases for the year ended December 31,
        1997 were $4,501. Sales to related parties for the year ended December
        31, 1997 were $1,337. The related party cost of sales for the same
        period was $877.


18.     Concentrations of Credit Risk and Geographic Information:

        The Company sells its products to original equipment manufacturers and
        distributors in North America, Europe and Asia. The Company regularly
        sells to financially secure and creditworthy customers on open account.
        Based upon a customer's credit history, the Company may require payment
        in advance or the issuance of a letter of credit in favor of the Company
        prior to shipment. The Company maintains adequate reserves for potential
        credit losses and performs ongoing credit evaluations.

18.     Concentrations of Credit Risk and Geographic Information, continued:

        For the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company's export shipments and
        sales to geographic regions approximated the following:


<TABLE>
<S>                                             <C>
                       Sales to:
                        Europe                  $ 80,740
                        Asia Pacific             168,395
                        Other international       27,090
                                                --------

                       Total export sales       $276,225
                                                ========
</TABLE>

        For the year ended December 31, 1997, $233,404 of the above export sales
        related to Symbios Semiconductors and the remaining $42,821 related to
        the Storage Systems Division. Sales to Singapore represented over $103
        million of Symbios Semiconductors export sales and sales to Ireland
        represented over $15 million of Storage Systems Division export sales.
        Sales and shipments of approximately $135.7 million to Asia Pacific in
        1997 were made to foreign locations or foreign subcontractors of
        U.S.-based companies.

        The Company's ultimate parent is HEI, a Korean corporation. HEI is a
        guarantor of the debt of HEA, the Company's immediate parent. Subsequent
        to December 31, 1997, HEA pledged the stock of the Company it owns as
        collateral for the Company's debt, and has borrowed $150 million from
        the Company. Subsequent to year end, the Company negotiated a new credit
        agreement with a new lender and loaned $150 million to HEA (see Note
        21). The new agreement contains limited cross-default provisions with
        respect to HEA. Asian country economies, including Korea, have recently
        experienced economic instability including significant devaluations in
        currencies, increases in interest rates, declines in public equity
        markets and a lack of liquidity in the financial institutions and
        businesses. The International Monetary Fund has agreed, subject to
        certain conditions, to provide financial assistance to certain Asian
        countries, including Korea. It is reasonably possible that further
        deteriorations in the Korean economy and the value of the Korean
        currency could have an adverse effect on the ability of the ultimate
        parent to continue to guarantee the debt of HEA. The ultimate effect of
        the economic instability in the Asian marketplace on HEI, Asian
        businesses and the U.S. semiconductor and storage industries is not
        determinable at this time.

        As of December 31, 1997, two customers accounted for the following
        percentages of accounts receivable:

18.     Concentrations of Credit Risk and Geographic Information, continued:

        For the year ended December 31, 1997, four customers accounted for the
        following percentages of sales:

<TABLE>
<S>                                              <C>

                              Customer C          10 %
                              Customer D          10 %
</TABLE>


        Customer A accounted for 52% of sales for the Storage Systems Division
        for the year ended December 31, 1997.

        The Company's storage systems division currently relies on one vendor as
        the Company's primary disk drive supplier.


19.     Fair Values of Financial Instruments:

        Cash and cash equivalents are carried at a cost plus accrued interest
        which approximates market value. The carrying value of the Company's
        debt approximates fair market value of the instrument based on the
        variable interest rate nature of the debt and management's best estimate
        of what interest rates would be available for similar debt obligations
        as of December 31, 1997. The fair value of interest rate swaps and other
        derivatives are based on quoted amounts the Company would receive or pay
        to terminate such swap agreements taking into account the current
        interest rate environment and the creditworthiness of each counterparty
        (see Note 11).


20.     Segment Information:

        In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS 131, "Disclosures About Segments of
        an Enterprise and Related Information," which is effective for periods
        beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS 131 establishes standards for
        the way that public business enterprises report information about
        operating segments. The Company adopted SFAS 131 in 1997.

        The Company's operations are conducted through its two divisions:
        Symbios Semiconductors and the Storage Systems Division. Symbios
        Semiconductors designs, manufactures and markets the Company's
        semiconductor products including host adapter ICs and boards, peripheral
        ICs and other non-I/O ASIC products. The Storage Systems Division
        designs, manufactures, and markets a complete line of storage system
        products, including controller boards, RAID storage systems, subsystems
        and related software. There are no differences between the measurement
        of these two segments' assets, profits or losses and those of the
        Company. All significant long-lived assets are located in the United
        States. The basis for accounting for any transactions between Symbios
        Semiconductors and the Storage Systems Division is cost.

        In 1997, bonus plan liabilities and expense were allocated to each
        division. Cash, income tax liabilities and interest income have
        continued to be principally allocated to Symbios Semiconductors in 1997.

21.     Subsequent Events:

        On August 6, 1998, the Company was sold to LSI Logic, Corporation.

        Pursuant to the sale agreement between HEA and LSI Logic, Corporation,
        upon the closing of the sale, the vesting of Director options was
        accelerated and they were repurchased for net cash of approximately $4.7
        million.

        In February 1998, the Board of Directors approved the reacquisition of
        the outstanding common stock of the Company at a price of $20.65 per
        share. The Company reacquired 83,996 shares at a cost of $1.7 million in
        March 1998.

        In February 1998, the Board of Directors approved employment agreements
        for a limited number of employees of the Company. The terms of the
        employment agreements vary by employee and provide for various lump sum
        payments and in some limited instances, vesting of common stock options
        upon the occurrence of certain triggering events.

21.     Subsequent Events, continued:

        On March 6, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors declared a dividend
        of $30 million to HEA, which will offset the $30 million intercompany
        loan to HEA at December 31, 1997.

        The Company terminated its $100 million unsecured line of credit
        effective February 20, 1998. On February 26, 1998, the Company entered
        into a new $300 million collateralized credit facility with a new
        lender, comprised of a $245 million term loan and a $55 million
        revolving line of credit, with a maturity date of February 25, 1999. The
        facility is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the
        Company. HEA has pledged the stock of the Company it owns as additional
        collateral for the loan. On February 26, 1998, the Company borrowed the
        $245 million term loan and used the proceeds to (a) pay off the GE
        Capital capital leases of $82.7 million and the Credit Lyonnais capital
        lease of $12 million and (b) make a term loan of $150 million to HEA
        under the same terms and conditions that the Company received from its
        new lender. Under the new facility, the Company is obligated to maintain
        certain covenants, including minimum net worth, EBITDA and consolidated
        fixed charge ratios, as well as restrictions on transactions with
        related parties including dividends, limitations on capital spending and
        incurrence of additional debt.

        Effective February 19, 1998, HEI, HEA and the Company entered into a
        termination and license agreement. This agreement terminated the patent
        agreement entered into in 1995 by the three companies. It also resulted
        in HEA granting the Company an irrevocable, nonexclusive, worldwide,
        royalty-free license on any products covered by any issued or pending
        HEA patents for the life of those patents. The Company granted HEA an
        irrevocable, nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to any
        products covered by issued or pending patents of the Company, or any
        patent issued or pending prior to February 15, 2005. HEI granted the
        Company an irrevocable, nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to
        any products covered by any HEI patent owned as of February 19, 1998 or
        acquired prior to December 31, 2010. The license between HEI and the
        Company shall terminate on December 31, 2010.

22.     Year 2000:

        In 1996, the Company commenced an evaluation of its software systems to
        identify potential Year 2000 software issues. In 1997, the Company
        commenced an upgrade of its financial and management reporting systems,
        as well as its Storage Systems Division manufacturing systems. This
        project is currently scheduled to be completed in 1998 at a cost of
        approximately $10 million. Approximately $5.5 million had been expended
        on the project through December 31, 1997. The Company must also upgrade
        its semiconductor manufacturing software. This is expected to be
        completed in December 1998 at a cost that is not currently anticipated
        to be material to the financial statements. However, due to the
        complexity of the systems, there can be no assurance that the projects
        will be completed on schedule or within budget. If the projects are not
        successfully completed, it could potentially have a material adverse
        affect on the operations of the business.

        Certain of the Company's software products are not currently compliant
        with Year 2000 requirements. The Company is in the process of
        redesigning such products. There can be no assurance that the Company
        will be able to redesign such products on a timely basis or without
        incurring significant expense. Even after such modifications have been
        completed, there can be no assurance that the Company's software
        products, particularly when such products incorporate third party
        software, will contain all necessary date code changes. The Company
        currently believes the cost of making such upgrades will not be material
        to the financial statements. However, if the Company's products cannot
        be successfully modified, the Company's business, operating results and
        financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

         NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (In Thousands)


Note 1-      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

             In the opinion of Symbios, Inc. (the "Company"), the accompanying
             unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all
             adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
             necessary to present fairly the financial information included
             therein. While the Company believes that the disclosures are
             adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested
             that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the
             audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes
             included herein for the year ended December 31, 1997.

             The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
             generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
             make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in
             the consolidated condensed financial statements and accompanying
             notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

             For financial reporting purposes, the Company reports on 13 or 14
             week quarters with a year ending December 31. For presentation
             purposes, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
             refer to the calendar month end for convenience. LSI Logic's and
             Symbios's month end were both June 28. The results of operations
             for the six months ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily
             indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

             On August 6, 1998, LSI Logic Corporation ("LSI Logic") completed
             the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of the
             Company from Hyundai Electronics America ("HEA"). The transaction
             was completed pursuant to (a) the Stock purchase Agreement dated as
             of June 28, 1998 by and among LSI Logic, HEA and Hyundai
             Electronics Industries Co., Ltd. ("HEI")  and (b) the First
             Amendment to the Stock Purchase Agreement dated August 6, 1998 by
             and among LSI Logic, HEA and HEI and (c) the Supplementary
             Liability Agreement dated August 6, 1998 by and among LSI Logic,
             HEA and HEI.

             SELF-INSURANCE RESERVES
             The Company retains certain exposures in its insurance plan under
             self-insurance programs. Reserves for claims made and reserves for
             estimated claims incurred but not yet reported are recorded as
             current liabilities.

Note 3-      Credit Facility

             Effective February 20, 1998, the Company terminated its $100
             million unsecured line of credit. On February 26, 1998, the Company
             entered into a new $300 million collateralized credit facility with
             a new lender, consisting of a $245 million term loan and a $55
             million revolving line of credit, with a maturity date of February
             25, 1999. On July 16, 1998, the term loan was increased to $275
             million. The facility is collateralized by substantially all of the
             assets of the Company. HEA has pledged the Company's stock as
             additional collateral for the loan. Borrowings against the credit
             facility accrues interest at LIBOR plus 3.5% (9.2% at June 30,
             1998). Under the new facility, the Company is obligated to maintain
             certain covenants and is in compliance with these covenants as of
             June 30, 1998. The Company had $245 million outstanding under the
             term loan at June 30, 1998.

             The Company loaned a portion of the proceeds of this credit
             facility to HEA under the same terms and conditions that the
             Company received from its lender. The principal amount of this note
             receivable was $150 million at June 30, 1998. The Company has shown
             the note receivable as a reduction of shareholder's equity in the
             accompanying financial statements due to collectibility concerns.

             Additionally, the Company used a portion of the proceeds of the
             term loan to repay two capital leases with a balance of
             approximately $95 million.

Note 4-      Financial Instruments

             During the first half of 1998, the Company terminated its interest
             rate swap and foreign currency exchange contracts. The related
             effects were insignificant to the financial statements for the six
             months ended June 30, 1998. The Company does not plan to enter
             into such contracts in the future.

Note 5-      On March 6, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors declared a
             dividend of $30 million to HEA, which offset the $30 million
             intercompany loan to HEA at December 31, 1997.


Note 6-      On August 6, 1998, LSI Logic Corporation ("LSI Logic") acquired all
             of the outstanding capital stock of the Company from HEA. As a
             result of the transaction, the Company is now a wholly owned
             subsidiary of LSI Logic and all agreements between the Company and
             HEA have been terminated. LSI Logic paid approximately $767 in cash
             for all of the outstanding capital stock of the Company, which
             included assumed liabilities of the Company. The final purchase
             price is subject to certain post-closing requirements. In addition,
             LSI Logic assumed all of the options outstanding under the
             Company's 1995 Stock Plan and has terminated the 401(k) savings
             plan and the RPA plan, subject to IRS approval.

             On August 7, 1998, HEA paid approximately $230 million to the
             Company to repay their note including interest plus additional
             obligations in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement, the
             First Amendment to the Stock Purchase Agreement and the
             Supplementary Liability Agreement. The Company then repaid the
             lender of the credit facility the term loan balance including
             interest and commitment fees on the unused portion of the term
             loan.

                          -------------------------------

   The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements
are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative
of the consolidated financial position or results of operations for future
periods or the results that actually would have been realized had LSI Logic and
Symbios been a consolidated company during the specified periods. The unaudited
pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements, including the notes
thereto, are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and should be read in
conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and the notes
thereto of LSI Logic which were previously reported in LSI Logic's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, which are hereby incorporated by
reference, and the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for
the year ended December 31, 1997 and the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated
Statements and the notes thereto for the six month period ended June 30, 1998,
of Symbios included elsewhere in this Current Report on Form 8-K/A.

   The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements
are based on the respective historical unaudited and audited consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto of Symbios and LSI Logic after giving
effect to the acquisition of Symbios using the purchase method of accounting and
the assumptions and adjustments described below. The purchase price was
allocated to the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed. The preliminary purchase price allocation is based on an independent
appraisal and management estimates. The purchase price allocation is subject to
further refinement and change over the next year. Management is in the final
process of completing its restructuring plans related to Symbios, and
accordingly, the amounts recorded related to Symbios are based on management's
current estimate of those costs.

   This Current Report on Form 8-K/A contains forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In particular, the assumptions set forth below
regarding revenue growth, gross margin increases, cost decreases and cost of
capital which underlie the Company's calculation of the in-process research and
development expenses contain forward-looking statements and are qualified by the
risks associated with "Dependence on New Process Technologies and Products,"
"Manufacturing Risks," "Capital Needs," "Fluctuations in Operating Results,"
"Competition," "Currency Risks," "Customer Concentration," "Cyclical Nature of
the Semiconductor Business" and "Acquisitions and Investment Alliances" and
other risks detailed in LSI Logic's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1997 and its

Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and June
30, 1998 and other reports filed by LSI Logic with the Securities Exchange
Commission from time to time. Actual results could differ materially from those
projected in these forward-looking statements as a result of the risks described
above as well as other risk factors set forth in LSI Logic's periodic reports
both previously and hereafter filed with the Securities Exchange Commission.

   The required pro forma unaudited financial information is set forth below.

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

On August 6, 1998, LSI Logic Corporation ("LSI Logic") completed the acquisition
of all of the outstanding capital stock of Symbios, Inc. ("Symbios") from
Hyundai Electronics America ("HEA"). HEA is a majority owned subsidiary of
Hyundai Electronics Industries Co.,Ltd. ("HEI"), a Korean corporation. The
transaction was completed pursuant to (a) the Stock Purchase Agreement dated as
of June 28, 1998 by and among LSI Logic, HEA and HEI and (b) the First Amendment
to the Stock Purchase Agreement dated August 6, 1998 by and among LSI Logic, HEA
and HEI and (c) the Supplementary Liability Agreement dated August 6, 1998 by
and among LSI Logic, HEA and HEI. LSI Logic paid approximately $767 million in
cash for all of the outstanding capital stock of Symbios. In addition, LSI Logic
assumed all of the options outstanding under Symbios' 1995 Stock Plan.

The components of purchase price are as follows:

<TABLE>

</TABLE>

(1)     LSI Logic, in accordance with its agreement with HEA, withheld $10
        million in payment to HEA pending resolution of the liabilities subject
        to the supplementary liability agreement dated August 6, 1998. This
        amount is ultimately payable to HEA or to satisfy other liabilities and
        has accordingly been reflected as a component of the purchase price. In
        addition, the Company accrued an additional $6 million as payable to HEA
        relating to the resolution of certain obligations outlined in the Stock
        Purchase Agreement.


The total purchase price was allocated to the estimated fair value of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed. The estimate of fair value of the assets
acquired is based on an independent appraisal and management estimates.
Management is in the final process of completing its integration plans related
to Symbios, and accordingly, the amounts recorded related to Symbios are based
on management's current estimate of those costs. The allocation of purchase
price is discussed further in Note 2.


The pro forma unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations is
presented using LSI Logic's unaudited condensed consolidated statement of
operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998 combined with Symbios's
unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 assuming the transaction occurred on January 1, 1998.
Additionally, the presentation includes LSI Logic's condensed consolidated
statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 combined with
Symbios's condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1997 as if the transaction had taken place on January 1, 1997.

The pro forma unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet gives effect to the
acquisition as if the transaction had taken place on June 30, 1998 and combines
LSI Logic's unaudited June 30, 1998 condensed consolidated balance sheet amounts
with Symbios's unaudited June 30, 1998 condensed consolidated balance sheet
amounts.

For financial reporting purposes, LSI Logic and Symbios report on 13 or 14 week
quarters with their years ending December 31. For pro forma presentation
purposes, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements
refer to the calendar month end for convenience. LSI Logic's and Symbios's month
end were both June 28. The results of operations for the six months ended June
30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year.

There were no transactions between LSI Logic and Symbios during the period
presented and there are no significant differences between the accounting
policies of LSI Logic and Symbios.

The pro forma unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
of LSI Logic, which were previously reported in LSI Logic's Annual Report on
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, incorporated herein by reference, and with
the combined financial statements and notes thereto of Symbios included
elsewhere as exhibits in the Form 8-K. These pro forma statements are based on
such consolidated financial statements after giving effect to the transaction
under the purchase method of accounting and the assumptions and adjustments
described below. The pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of
the results which would have been reported if the purchase had been in effect
for the periods presented or which may result in the future.

Note 2. Pro Forma Adjustments


The pro forma adjustments are based on a preliminary allocation of the purchase
price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The allocation of the
purchase price is based on an independent appraisal of certain assets as well as
management estimates of fair value. It also reflects the results of an
integration plan, which includes employee separations, elimination of
duplicative facilities, employee relocation and other restructuring actions. The
accruals recorded related to the restructuring of Symbios operations are in
accordance with Emerging Issue Task Force No. 95-3 "Recognition of Liabilities
in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination."


This Current Report on Form 8-KA contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In particular, the assumptions set forth below
regarding revenue growth and cost of capital which underlie the Company's
calculation of the in-process research and development expenses contain
forward-looking statements and are qualified by the risks associated with
"Dependence on New Process Technologies and Products," "Manufacturing Risks,"
"Capital Needs," "Fluctuations in Operating Results," "Competition," "Currency
Risks," "Customer Concentration," "Cyclical Nature of the Semiconductor
Business" and "Acquisitions and Investment Alliances" and other risks detailed
in LSI Logic's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997
and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and
June 30, 1998 and other reports filed by LSI Logic with the Securities Exchange
Commission from time to time. Actual results could differ materially from those
projected in these forward-looking statements as a result of the risks described
above as well as other risk factors set forth in LSI Logic's periodic reports
both previously and hereafter filed with the Securities Exchange commission.

        liabilities assumed. The purchase price was allocated as follows (in
        millions):

                                                                  $    804
                                                                  ========
</TABLE>


LSI Logic reduced the estimate of the amount allocated to in-process research
and development ("IPR&D") by $79.3 million from the $224.8 million amount
previously reported in the 8-K/A filed on October 20, 1998 to $145.5 million.


LSI Logic allocated amounts to IPR&D and intangible assets as of August 6, 1998
in a manner consistent with widely recognized appraisal practices at the date of
acquisition of Symbios. Subsequent to the acquisition, in a letter to the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Chief Accountant of the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") expressed views of the SEC staff that
took issue with certain appraisal practices generally employed in determining
the fair value of the IPR&D that was the basis for the measurement of the IPR&D
charge. The charge of $224.8 million, as first reported, was based upon
assumptions and appraisal methodologies the SEC has since announced it does not
consider appropriate.

As a result of computing IPR&D using the SEC preferred methodology, LSI Logic
has revised the amount originally allocated to IPR&D and accordingly has
amended the report on Form 8-K/A previously filed with the Securities Exchange
Commission.



                                       5
<PAGE>   53

 The value assigned to IPR&D was determined by identifying research projects in
areas for which technological feasibility had not been established. These
include semiconductor projects of $ 94.6 million and storage systems projects of
$50.9 million. The value was determined by estimating the expected cash flows
from the projects once commercially feasible, discounting the net cash flows
back to their present value and then applying a percentage of completion to the
calculated value as defined below.


Net cash flows. The net cash flows from the identified projects are based on
estimates of revenues, cost of sales, research and development costs, selling,
general and administrative costs, and income taxes from those projects. These
estimates are based on the assumptions mentioned below. The research and
development costs included in the model reflect costs to sustain projects, but
exclude costs to bring in-process projects to technological feasibility.

The estimated revenues are based on management projections of each in-process
project for semiconductor and storage systems products and the aggregated
business projections were compared and found to be in line with industry
analysts' forecasts of growth in substantially all of the relevant markets.
Estimated total revenues from the IPR&D product areas are expected to peak in
the year 2001 and decline from 2002 to 2005 as other new products are expected
to become available. These projections are based on estimates of market size and
growth, expected trends in technology, and the nature and expected timing of new
product introductions by LSI Logic and its competitors.

Projected gross margins approximate Symbios' recent historical performance and
are in-line with industry margins in the semiconductor and storage systems
industry sectors. The estimated selling, general and administrative costs are
consistent with Symbios' historical cost structure which is in-line with
industry averages at approximately 15% of revenues. Research and development
costs are consistent with Symbios' historical cost structure.

Royalty rate. The Company applied a royalty charge of 25% of operating income
for each in-process project to attribute value for dependency on predecessor
core technologies.

Discount rate. Discounting the net cash flows back to their present value is
based on the industry weighted average cost of capital ("WACC"). The industry
WACC is approximately 15% for semiconductors and 16% for storage systems. The
discount rate used in discounting the net cash flows from IPR&D is 20% for
semiconductor and 21% for storage systems, a 500 basis point increase from the
respective industry WACC's. This discount rate is higher than the industry WACC
due to inherent uncertainties surrounding the successful development of the
IPR&D, market acceptance of the technology, the useful life of such technology,
the profitability levels of such technology and the uncertainty of technological
advances which could potentially impact the estimates described above.

Percentage of completion. The percentage of completion for each project was
determined using milestones representing management's estimate of effort, value
added, and degree of difficulty of the portion of each project completed as of
August 6, 1998, as compared to the remaining research and development to be
completed to bring each project to technical feasibility. The development
process is grouped into three phases with each phase containing between one and
five milestones. The three phases are:

        o       Researching the market requirements and the engineering
                architecture and feasibility studies;

        o       Design and verification milestones; and

        o       Prototyping and testing the product (both internal and customer
                testing).

Each of these phases has been subdivided into milestones, and then the status of
each of the projects was evaluated as of August 6, 1998. The percentage of
completion varied by individual project ranging from 15% to 90% for
semiconductors and from 5% to 85% for storage systems.


If the projects discussed above are not successfully developed, the sales and
profitability of the combined company may be adversely affected in future
periods. Additionally, the value of other intangible assets acquired may become
impaired. LSI Logic management believes that the restated IPR&D charge of $145.5
million is valued consistently with the SEC staff's current views regarding
valuation methodologies. There can be no assurances, however, that the SEC staff
will not take issue with any assumptions used in the Company's valuation model
and require the Company to further revise the amount allocated to IPR&D.

(B)     Adjustment to reflect repayment by HEA of $152 million for their note
        including interest to Symbios and payment for additional obligations
        of $44 million outlined in the Stock Purchase Agreement, the First
        Amendment to the Stock Purchase Agreement and the




                                       6

        Supplementary Liability Agreement and to record the Symbios repayment of
        $245 million of the term loan balance with $2 million of outstanding
        interest and commitment fees on the unused portion of the term loan to
        the lender of the credit facility.

(C)     Adjustment to reflect the fair value of inventories.

(D)     Adjustment to eliminate Symbios' deferred tax assets ($4 million) and
        deferred tax liabilities ($4 million) to post- acquisition values.

(E)     Adjustment to reflect fair value of property, plant and equipment in the
        unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and the
        corresponding change in depreciation in the unaudited pro forma
        condensed consolidated statements of operations for the periods
        presented.

(F)     Adjustment to eliminate intangible assets previously recorded by Symbios
        in the amount of approximately $5 million.

(G)     Adjustment to record fair value of intangible assets for current
        technology, assembled workforce, trademarks and goodwill with values as
        outlined in (A) above. The estimated weighted average useful life of the
        intangible assets is approximately 8 years.

(H)     Adjustment to reverse amortization of intangibles previously recorded by
        Symbios ($8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1997 and $3.1
        million for six months ended June 30, 1998) and to record amortization
        expense of intangible assets straight-line over the estimated weighted
        average useful life as outlined in (G) above ($41.8 million for the year
        ended December 31, 1997 and $20.9 million for six months ended June 30,
        1998).


(I)     Adjustment to reflect estimate of accrued integration charges related to
        Symbios to be incurred in connection with the acquisition. The
        integration plans include initiatives to integrate the operations of
        Symbios and LSI Logic and consolidate duplicative operations.
        Adjustments to accrued restructuring costs related to Symbios were
        recorded as an adjustment to the purchase price allocation. Accrued
        integration charges include $4 million related to involuntary employee
        separation and relocation benefits related to approximately 300 Symbios
        employees and $1.4 million in other exit costs primarily relating to the
        closing of Symbios sales offices and the termination of certain
        contractual relationships. The Symbios integration related accruals are
        based upon management's current estimate of integration costs and are in
        accordance with EITF No. 95-3, "Recognition of Liabilities in Connection
        with a Purchase Business Combination."


(J)     Adjustment to record the current ($150 million) and long-term ($485
        million) portion of the term loan entered into on August 5, 1998 on the
        unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30,
        1998 and the related receipt of funds. The term loan bears interest at
        adjustable rates and an increase or decrease in the interest rate by
        .125% would have an insignificant effect to the unaudited pro forma
        condensed consolidated statements of operations presented. The unaudited
        pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations include an
        adjustment to record interest expense for the periods presented related
        to the incremental borrowing entered into by LSI to finance the Symbios
        acquisition using an assumed rate of 6%. Amortization of capitalized
        debt issuance costs are considered immaterial for the periods presented.
        Adjustment also reflects the payment to HEA in the amount of $763
        million including cash reserves used by LSI Logic as outlined in
        Note 1.

(K)     Adjustment to reflect the reversal of interest income on the pro forma
        adjustment to cash resulting from the acquisition ($7.1 million for the
        year ended December 31, 1997 and $3.5 million for six months ended June
        30, 1998). The assumed rate of return on the cash balance was
        approximately 5.8% which is based upon the estimated rate of return on
        short-term investments for LSI Logic.

(L)     Adjustment to eliminate interest expense of $7.7 million related to the
        Symbios term loan assumed to be repaid as of the beginning of the
        periods presented.

(M)     Adjustment to eliminate interest income associated with the HEA note
        assumed to be repaid as of the beginning of the periods presented ($1.7
        million for the year ended December 31, 1997 and $5.1 million for six
        months ended June 30, 1998).


(N)     Adjustment to reflect the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments at the
        combined rate of Symbios and LSI Logic during the periods presented.


(O)     Adjustment to eliminate $316 million of common stock and $9 million of
        retained earnings previously recorded by Symbios.

(P)     Adjustment to stockholders' equity to record $25 million of the
        Black-Scholes value of the Symbios stock options assumed as a result of
        the transaction.




                                       7
<PAGE>   55

(Q)     Adjustment to accrue for $16 million payable to HEA and others as
        discussed in Note 1.

Note 3. Pro Forma Earnings Per Share

Basic pro forma earnings per share was calculated based on shares of LSI Logic's
