Report of Independent Auditors
The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Committee
Galileo Electro-Optics Corporation
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of the
Galileo Electro-Optics Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related statements of changes in plan equity
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. 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 financial position of the Galileo Electro-Optics
Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
changes in its plan equity for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Notes To Financial Statements
December 31, 1995 and 1994
1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
Galileo Electro-Optics Corporation (the Company) adopted an Employee Stock
Purchase Plan (the Plan) on June 18, 1986, pursuant to which employees may
purchase shares of the Company's common stock through payroll deductions and
receive partially matching contributions from the Company to purchase additional
common stock. In addition to payroll deductions, employees are allowed to make
direct contributions to the Plan.
Any full-time employee of the Company is eligible to participate in the Plan if
he or she is at least eighteen years of age and has been employed by the Company
for twelve consecutive months. In addition, any part-time employee who meets the
same age requirements and has been in the Company's employ for twenty-four
consecutive months is eligible. Participation in the Plan is strictly voluntary.
The Plan is administered by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors of
the Company.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
INVESTMENTS
Investments in common stock of the Company are purchased in the open market.
Shares are carried at market value based upon the latest reported sales price.
Monthly stock purchases are recorded at the average of the market values during
the month. Realized gains and losses are determined on an average cost basis.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
All expenses of the Plan are paid by the Company.
<TABLE>
CONTRIBUTIONS
In any given year, the maximum amount of contributions that a participant may
make is $1,000. Matching employer contributions are made on a sliding scale as
follows:
<S> <C>
50% First $250
40% Second $250
30% Last $500

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
INCOME TAX STATUS
The Plan is a nonqualified profit-sharing plan under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986 (the Code). Company contributions are tax deductible expenses for the
Company at the time the participant's interest in the contributions vest.
Company contributions will result in taxable ordinary income to participants
when their interests in such contributions are vested. Hence, the Plan itself is
not subject to income taxes.
The Plan is not subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, which relates to the protection of employee benefit
rights, because it is not a plan of deferred compensation and is not subject to
Section 401(a) of the Code.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications have been made to the amounts in the 1994 and 1993
financial statements to conform to the 1995 presentation.
3. VESTING AND BENEFITS
Common stock purchased with a participant's contributions becomes vested in the
participant's account immediately. Common stock purchased with Company
contributions becomes vested in the participant's account on January 1 of the
second plan year following the plan year during which such contributions are
made. Additional shares resulting from a stock split or stock dividend vest
immediately. A participant's account derived from Company contributions will
also vest upon his or her sixty-fifth birthday, upon early retirement with
twenty years of service, disability or death, or upon termination of the Plan.
If a participant makes withdrawals, the unvested portion of his or her account
will be forfeited proportionately to the amount of vested shares withdrawn.
Forfeitures can be used by the Company to offset future Company contributions.
Upon retirement at age sixty-five, the participant shall be entitled to receive
the entire number of shares of common stock held in his or her account and cash
equal to the value of any fractional share, including any portion which would
not otherwise be vested at that time.
At December 31, 1995 and 1994, there were 81 and 89 Plan participants,
respectively.
