The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial
information gives effect to the transactions among the Company, Marquest Medical
Products, Inc. ("Marquest"), Vital Signs, Inc. ("VSI") and VSI Acquisition
Corporation ("Newco"). Pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger
dated as of March 14, 1997, between Marquest, VSI, and Newco (the "Merger
Agreement"), VSI acquired Marquest, effective July 28, 1997, upon the merger of
Newco, a wholly-owned subsidiary of VSI, with and into Marquest (the "Merger").
At the effective time of the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of
Marquest Common Stock were converted into the right to receive $0.797 in cash
per share and Marquest became a wholly-owned subsidiary of VSI. As a result, the
Company received $5,747,320 in exchange for its 7,211,192 shares of Marquest
Common Stock and $309,260 through the exercise of warrants to purchase Marquest
Common Stock. Additionally, pursuant to the terms of

<PAGE>
the Scherer Healthcare Inducement Agreement dated as of March 14, 1997,
between the Company, Marquest, and VSI, VSI purchased from the Company
certain assets of the Company leased or licensed by the Company to Marquest
and used by Marquest in the manufacture and sale of arterial blood gas
products (the "ABG Assets") and the Company entered into a covenant not to
compete with VSI in the manufacture and sale of arterial blood gas products
for a period of three years. VSI paid the Company an aggregate of $5,860,000
for the ABG Assets and the covenant not to compete. The Merger, the sale of
the ABG Assets by the Company to VSI, and the execution of the covenant not
to compete are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Scherer
Transactions."
The operations of Marquest are included in the Company's Medical Device and
Surgical/Safety Disposables Segment along with the operations of Scherer
Healthcare, Ltd. ("Scherer Ltd."), a limited partnership that was 65% owned by
the Company, whose assets and businesses were sold in two separate transactions
in October 1995 and October 1996. Effective July 28, 1997, the operations of the
Medical Device and Surgical/Safety Disposables Segment will be accounted for as
a discontinued segment, and accordingly, the operations of Marquest and Scherer
Ltd. will be segregated and reported as discontinued operations in the Company's
consolidated financial statements after such date.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet gives
effect to the Scherer Transactions as if they had occurred on June 30, 1997, and
the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of continuing
operations for the three months ended June 30, 1997, present the operating
results of the Company as if the Scherer Transactions had occurred on April 1,
1997. The unaudited pro forma balance sheet and operating statement are based on
previously described financial information of the Company as of and for the
three months ended June 30, 1997, and the pro forma adjustments described in the
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information
included herein.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is
presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of
the operating results or financial position that actually would have occurred if
the Scherer Transactions had been consummated as of such dates in accordance
with the assumptions set forth below, nor is it necessarily indicative of future
operating results for financial position.
