                       JUDICATE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                 THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1994

Note 1.   Basis of presentation.

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries.  The consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and in accordance with the
instructions for Form 10- QSB.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.  

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.  Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 1995 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1995.  The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December
31, 1994 is unaudited; however, it has been derived from the audited financial
statements at that date.  For further information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on
Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1994.

Note 2.   Acquisition of electronic hardware distribution business. 


     On March 31, 1995, the Company acquired Quest Electronic Hardware, Inc.
("Quest"), a specialized distributor of fasteners and electronic hardware sold
to electronic equipment manufacturers, in exchange for 3,872,000 shares of the
Company's common stock.  Simultaneously, the Company contributed to Quest cash
of $2,850,000 as additional paid-in capital and Quest purchased the fasteners

distribution business from Arrow Electronics, Inc. ("Arrow") for net cash
consideration of $5,229,847.  In connection with these transactions, the
Company recorded $6,477,005 of cost in excess of net assets of business
acquired.  The Company does not expect that Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, will
have any impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 3.   Long-term debt.  

     In connection with the acquisition by Quest of the fasteners distribution
business from Arrow, Quest entered into a loan agreement with a bank which
provided for a $2,200,000 term loan to finance a portion of the purchase
price.  In addition, the loan agreement provides for a revolving credit
facility of $800,000, which was fully available to Quest at March 31, 1995. 
The term 

                                      5

loan, which bears interest at the rate of 2.0% above the Prime Rate, is
payable in equal quarterly installments over a four year period.  The
revolving credit facility bears interest at the rate of 1.5% above the Prime
Rate.  

Note 4.   Provision for restructuring.  

     As a result of declining revenues of the Company's ADR business, stemming
in part from increased competition, and the resultant historical losses, the
Company undertook a plan of action to downsize and restructure its ADR
business in order to establish a more acceptable relationship of expenses of
that business to its revenues.  The Company's operating results for the three
month period ended March 31, 1995 include a provision for restructuring of
$125,000.  More than $60,000 of such provision is attributable to the
write-off of fixed assets and idle equipment associated with the downsizing of
the ADR business.  The balance of the provision is associated with lease
termination costs, the relocation of the ADR business to more suitable office
space, forfeiture of security deposits, and other costs associated with the
downsizing and restructuring of the ADR business.  During August 1995, the
Company will relocate the office of the ADR business to more suitable space. 
The Company is evaluating its alternatives with respect to the future
operation of its ADR business, including the possible sale, disposition or
discontinuance of the business.

     (E)  To record net additional G & A charges:

          Estimated additional general and administrative charges
            related to the Fasteners Business                          $  21

            The statement of operations for the three months ended
            March 31, 1995 of the Fasteners Business does not
            include charges for general and  administrative
            services that were provided by Arrow, but does include 
            charges for certain costs that are not expected to be
            incurred in the future.  If the Fasteners Business had
            been a stand alone entity as of the beginning of the
            period presented, it is estimated that the net amount
            of such costs would have resulted in additional charges
            of approximately                                           $  21

     (F)  To reflect utilization of net operating loss carryforward    $ 154
