PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
---------
General
-------
Edac Technologies Corporation ("Edac") was formed in 1985 for the purpose of
acquiring Gros-Ite Industries, Incorporated (which had three operating
divisions: Time Engineering, Gros-Ite and Spectrum). In the past six years Edac
has sold the assets of its other operations and now operates only the Gros-Ite
division ("Gros-Ite").
Products
--------
Edac currently offers design and manufacturing services for the aerospace
industry in areas such as special tooling, equipment and gauges, and components
used in the manufacture, assembly and inspec-tion of jet engines. Edac also
offers design and manufacturing services for the medical instruments industry in
such areas as components used in the manufacture of medical instruments and
special tooling. Edac also designs and manufactures specialized machines for a
variety of other applications.
Edac maintains manufacturing facilities with computerized numerically
controlled machining centers, and grinding, welding, and sheet metal
fabrication, painting and assembly capabilities. Items manufactured by Edac
include precision rings, and other components for jet engines, components for
medical instruments, as well as industrial spindles, environmental test chambers
and specialized machinery designed by Edac or others and other assemblies
requiring close tolerances.
Patents and Trademarks
----------------------
Edac currently holds no patents or registered trademarks, tradenames or
similiar intellectual property. The Company believes that the nature of its
business presently does not require the development of patentable products or
registered tradenames or trademarks to maintain market growth.
Marketing and Competition
-------------------------
Edac has numerous competitors both in design and manufacturing. Many of
the independent design firms with which it competes are smaller than Edac and do
not provide the variety of services that Edac provides. Edac also competes with
its customers' in-house design and technical services capabilities. Edac
believes that it is able to compete effectively with independent design firms
and in-house design staffs because of its experience and the timeliness and
competitive pricing of its services.
Many firms also compete with Edac's manufacturing operations. However,
Edac believes that it will be able to compete effectively with these firms on
price, ability to meet customer deadlines and the stringent quality control
standards it employs. Edac also believes that its integration of design and
manufacturing capabilities offers a competitive advantage.
3
<PAGE>
Edac's manufactured products are sold primarily through
individual purchase orders on a quotation or bid basis. Its sales
personnel and management maintain contacts with purchasing sources to
keep informed as to manufacturing projects available for quotation.
Edac occasionally enters into annual manufacturing contracts on
specific components.
For its fiscal year ended December 31, 1994, approximately 69% of Edac's net
sales were derived from sales to United Technologies Corporation.
Approximately 70% of Edac's design business is done on a time and
material basis based on hourly rates established annually. Most of
Edac's manufacturing is done on a firm quotation basis. Less than 10%
of Edac's net sales are attributed to government contracts subject to
termination or renegotiation at the option of the U.S. Government.
United Technologies Corporation annually negotiates hourly billing rates for
design work and is free to audit costs actually charged.
Backlog
-------
Edac's backlog as of December 31, 1994, was approximately $24,487,000
compared to $20,860,000 as of December 31, 1993. Backlog consists of accepted
purchase orders that are cancellable by the customer without penalty, except for
payment of costs incurred, and may involve delivery times that extend over
periods as long as two or three years. Edac presently expects to complete
approximately $15,900,000 of its December 31, 1994 backlog within the next 12
months.
Employees
---------
As of March 19, 1995 Edac had approximately 152 employees.

(1) EIGHTY PERCENT (80%) of the Borrower's Eligible Receivables;
(2) FIFTY-FIVE PERCENT (55%) of the Borrower's Eligible Inventory,
but in any event not to exceed THREE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED
THOUSAND DOLLARS ($3,500,000.00); AND
(3) FIFTY PERCENT (50%) of the Borrower's Eligible Inventory in
excess of the budgeted level of inventory of Borrower, as
determined by the Lender in its reasonable discretion;
which sum shall be reduced by the aggregate amount committed under any
letter or letters of credit issued by the Lender on behalf of the
Borrower; OR
b. SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS ($7,000,000.00), reduced by the aggregate
amount committed under any letter or letters of credit issued by the
Lender on behalf of the Borrower.
Nothing herein shall be construed to require the Lender to lend up to the
Borrowing Base, and nothing shall prohibit the Lender from lending in
excess of the Borrowing Base, all loans to be at the discretion of the
Lender.
The Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by the Revolving Promissory Note
annexed hereto and made a part hereof as EXHIBIT "B".
2BORROWING BASE REPORTS, ETC. For purposes of computing the Borrowing
---------------------------
Base, the Borrower shall furnish to the Lender information adequate to
identify Receivables and Inventory at times and in form and substance as
may be required by the Lender, together with such certificates as the
Lender may require from the Borrower representing that no Event of Default
has occurred and that the Borrower knows of no event
7
<PAGE>
which, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice, would create an
Event of Default. From time to time, the Borrower shall provide the Lender
with schedules describing all Receivables created or acquired by the
Borrower and shall execute and deliver written assignments of such
Receivables to the Lender; provided, however, that the Borrower's failure
to execute and deliver such schedules and/or assignments shall not affect
or limit the Lender's security interest or other rights in and to any
Collateral. Together with each schedule, the Borrower shall, upon request
of the Lender, furnish copies of customers' invoices or the equivalent, and
original shipping or delivery receipts for all merchandise sold, and the
Borrower warrants the genuineness thereof. In addition to the foregoing,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender (a) within ninety (90) days after
the end of each of the Borrower's fiscal years, a register containing the
name and address of each customer of the Borrower and (b) within thirty
(30) days after the end of each month, an accounts receivable aging report,
an accounts payable aging report, an accounts receivable reconciliation
report, an accounts receivable reserve reconciliation report and an
inventory and work-in-process report, all of which may be internally
prepared. The Borrower further warrants that all Receivables are and will
be bona fide existing obligations created by the sale and delivery of
merchandise or the rendition of services to customers in the ordinary
course of business, free of liens, encumbrances and security interests and
unconditionally owed to the Borrower and, to the best of the Borrower's
knowledge, without defense, offset or counterclaim.
3REPAYMENT OF THE REVOLVING LOAN. The Revolving Loan shall be payable
-------------------------------
upon demand without requiring the Lender first to resort to any other
right, remedy or security. In the event the Revolving Loan at any time
exceeds the Borrowing Base, the Borrower will immediately, upon
notification thereof from the Lender, repay to the Lender the amount by
which the Revolving Loan exceeds the Borrowing Base. At the time of each
advance under the Revolving Loan, the Borrower will, upon request of the
Lender, execute a promissory note evidencing the Revolving Loan, such note
to be in such form and to contain such provisions as the Lender shall deem
desirable. If the Lender shall elect not to have the Borrower execute
notes, each advance shall be recorded in an account on the Lender's books
in which shall also be recorded accrued interest on advances, payments on
such advances, and other appropriate debits and credits as herein provided,
and such account shall constitute prima facie evidence of the information
contained therein.

<PAGE>
4INTEREST ON THE REVOLVING LOAN. Interest on the Revolving Loan will be
------------------------------
payable monthly in arrears on the first business day of each month,
commencing on the first business day of the month subsequent to the date of
this Loan Agreement, and will be charged to the Borrower upon any and all
balances due to the Lender at the applicable rate or rates stated in the
Revolving Promissory Note attached hereto as EXHIBIT "B", such interest to
be computed based upon a 360-day per year for the actual number of days
elapsed. The Borrower further agrees to pay the Lender a late charge fee
equal to five percent (5%) of any payment due to the Lender which is not
received before the expiration of ten (10) days after the payment is due.
It is further agreed that upon an Event of Default and at any time
thereafter, the Borrower shall pay interest to the Lender at the applicable
rate or rates set forth in the Revolving Promissory Note attached hereto as
EXHIBIT "B", plus one (1) point until the Obligations are paid in full.
----
5COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES. The Lender or its designee may notify
-------------------------
customers or account debtors at any time, whether or not an Event of
Default has occurred, that Receivables have been assigned to the Lender or
of the Lender's security interest therein and collect them directly and
charge the collection costs and expenses to the Borrower's account; but,
unless and until the Lender does so or gives the Borrower other
instructions, the Borrower shall make collection of all Receivables for the
Lender, receive all payments thereon as the Lender's trustee and
immediately deliver them to the Lender in their original form. All such
payments will be placed by the Lender into a cash collateral account and,
until credited to the Borrower's account as hereinafter set forth, shall be
held by the Lender as collateral for payment and/or performance of the
Borrower's Obligations to the Lender. After allowing one (1) day for
collection of checks and other instruments, the Lender will credit
(conditional upon final collection) all such payments, or those made on
account thereof, to the Borrower's account.
6RETURNS, CREDITS, ETC. Any merchandise which is returned by a customer
---------------------
or account debtor or otherwise recovered shall remain part of the Lender's
security. The Borrower shall notify the Lender promptly of all returns and
recoveries and, on request, deliver the merchandise to the Lender. The
Borrower shall also notify the Lender promptly of any single claim in
excess of $10,000.00 or of disputes and claims in excess of an aggregate of
$10,000.00 and settle or adjust them at no expense to the Lender, but no
discount, credit or allowance (other than in the ordinary course of the
Borrower's
9
<PAGE>
business) shall be granted to any customer or account debtor, and no
returns of merchandise (other than in the ordinary course of the Borrower's
business) shall be accepted by the Borrower without the Lender's consent.
The Lender may at all times after an Event of Default, settle or adjust
disputes and claims directly with customers or account debtors for amounts
and upon terms which the Lender considers advisable, and in all cases the
Lender will credit the Borrower's account with only the net amounts
received by the Lender in payment of Receivables.
7FURTHER ASSURANCE. Upon the Lender's request, the Borrower shall perform
-----------------
all other steps requested by the Lender to create and maintain in the
Lender's favor a valid first priority security interest, assignment or lien
in, of or on all Receivables and all other security held by or for the
Lender.
8POWER OF ATTORNEY. The Borrower appoints the Lender, or any person whom
-----------------
the Lender may designate, as its attorney, with power exercisable at any
time after an Event of Default: to endorse the Borrower's name on any
checks, notes, acceptances, money orders, drafts or other forms of payment
or security that may come into the Lender's possession; to sign the
Borrower's name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any
Receivables, on notices of assignment, financing statements, and other
public records, on verifications of accounts and on notices to customers;
to notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of
the Borrower's mail to an address designated by the Lender; to send
requests for verification of Receivables to customers or account debtors;
and to do all things necessary to carry out this Loan Agreement. The
Borrower ratifies and approves all acts of the attorney. Neither the Lender
nor the attorney will be liable for any acts or omissions nor for any error
of judgment or mistake of fact or law. This power, being coupled with an
interest, is irrevocable so long as any Receivables assigned to the Lender
or in which the Lender has a security interest remain unpaid or until the
Obligations have been fully satisfied. The Lender may file one or more
financing statement disclosing the Lender's security interest without the
Borrower's signature appearing thereon.
10
<PAGE>
9TERMINATION. The Revolving Loan shall terminate on January 31, 1996 and
-----------
may be renewed by the Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, upon
written notification by the Lender prior to January 31, 1996, which
notification will contain the terms and conditions of any renewal. The
Revolving Loan may also be terminated by the Lender at any time by giving
the Borrower thirty (30) days' prior written notice. Termination shall be
effected by the mailing of a registered or certified letter of notice
addressed by either party to the other at the address set forth herein, and
the termination shall be effective as of the date so fixed in such notice.
Upon the effective date of termination, all Obligations of Borrower under
the Revolving Loan shall become immediately due and payable without notice
or demand. Notwithstanding termination of the Revolving Loan, the Borrower
shall continue to assign Receivables to the Lender and turn over all
collections to the Lender; and, except for those specific covenants and
conditions dealing with the making of advances, all terms and conditions of
all agreements between the Borrower and the Lender shall remain in full
force and effect.
10ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS. If the Lender shall deem applicable to this Loan
-------------------
Agreement (including the borrowed and the unused portion thereof) any
requirement of any law of the United States of America, any regulation,
order, interpretation, ruling, official directive or guideline (whether or
not having the force of law) of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation or any other board or governmental or administrative
agency of the United States of America which shall impose, increase, modify
or make applicable thereto or cause to be included in, any reserve, special
deposit, calculation used in the computation of regulatory capital
standards, assessment or other requirement which imposes on the Lender any
cost that is attributable to the maintenance thereof, then, and in each
such event, the Borrower shall promptly pay the Lender, upon its demand,
such amount as will compensate the Lender for any such cost, which
determination may be based upon the Lender's reasonable allocation of the
aggregate of such costs resulting from such events. In the event any such
cost is a continuing cost, a fee payable to the Lender may be imposed upon
the Borrower periodically for so long as any such cost is deemed applicable
to the Lender, in an amount determined by the Lender to be necessary to
compensate the Lender for any such cost. The determination by the Lender of
the existence and amount of any such cost shall, in the absence of manifest
error, be conclusive.

interest on Equipment Line of Credit II Advances, payments on

priate debits and credits in connection with this Loan Agreement, and
such account shall constitute prima facie evidence of the information

satisfactory to the Lender, that the Lender may reasonably

13
<PAGE>
1SECURITY INTEREST. As security for payment and performance of the
-----------------
Obligations, the Borrower hereby assigns and grants to the Lender a
continuing security interest in the Collateral. The Lender shall retain its

Obligations have been fully satisfied.

------------------------
thereafter, the Lender will have the right: (1) to take physical possession

immediately following said sale, exchange or other disposition, and shall
be applied at the option of the Lender to the payment of the Obligations;
and the receipt by the Lender of all or any of said proceeds shall not be

and expense, including attorney's fees, suffered or incurred by the Lender,
(i) under or on account of CHAPTER 446K of the Connecticut General Statutes
(Revision of 1958), as amended (the "ACT") or related regulations, or any
similar applicable federal laws or regulations, including the assertion of
any liens thereunder; (ii) with respect to any discharge, spillage,
uncontrolled loss, seepage or filtration of oil or petroleum or chemical,
liquids or solid, liquid or gaseous products or hazardous waste which, if
contained or removed or mitigated by the State of Connecticut, would give
rights to a lien under Connecticut General Statutes SECTION 22A-452A, as
amended (a "SPILL") affecting any real or personal property owned or leased
by the Borrower, including any loss of value of any such property as a
result of such Spill; and (iii) with respect to any other matter affecting

make, or cause to be made, all needful and proper repairs, renewals,
replacements, betterments and improvements thereto, and will pay or cause
to be paid, except when the same may be contested in good faith, all rent
due on premises where any property is held or may be held, so that the
business carried on in connection therewith may be continuously conducted.
The Borrower will have and maintain insurance at all times with respect to
all Collateral against risks of fire (including so-called extended
coverage), theft and such risks as the Lender may require containing such
terms, in such form, and for such periods, and written by such companies as
may be satisfactory to the Lender, such insurance to be payable to the
Lender and the Borrower as their interests may appear; each policy of
liability insurance shall name the Lender as an additional insured; each
policy of property casualty and business interruption insurance shall have
a loss payee endorsement providing:
a. That loss or damage, if any under the policy, shall be payable to
the Lender, as mortgagee and/or secured party, as its interests may
appear;
b. That the insurance as to the interest of the Lender shall not be
invalidated by any act or neglect of the insured or owner of the
property described in said policy, nor by any foreclosure, or other
proceeding, nor by any change in the title of ownership of said
property, nor by the occupation of the premises where the property is
located for
16
<PAGE>
purposes more hazardous than are permitted by said policy;
c. That, if the policy is canceled at any time by the insurance
carrier, in such case the policy shall continue in force for the
benefit of the Lender for not less than thirty (30) days after written
notice of cancellation to the Lender from the insurance carrier; and

insurance carrier.
The Borrower will furnish the Lender with certificates or other evidence
satisfactory to the Lender of compliance with the foregoing insurance
provisions, and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Loan
Agreement, the Lender may act as attorney for the Borrower in obtaining,
adjusting, settling, and canceling such insurance and receiving and
endorsing any drafts. The Borrower hereby assigns to the Lender any and all
monies which may become due and payable under any policies of property
casualty insurance insuring the Collateral and business interruption
insurance, including return of unearned premiums, and hereby directs any
insurance company issuing any such policy to make payment directly to the
Lender and authorizes the Lender, at its option: (i) to apply such monies
in payment on account of any of the Obligations, whether or not due, and
remit any surplus to the Borrower; or (ii) to return said funds to the
Borrower for the purpose of replacement of the Collateral. The Borrower

and such other insurance as may be required by law or as may be reasonably
required by the Lender.

prejudgment remedy notice or hearing to which the Borrower may be entitled;
provided, however, that this waiver shall not include a waiver of such
rights as the Borrower shall have to prior notice of the proposed
disposition of Collateral by the Lender. Specifically and without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower recognizes that the Lender
has and shall continue to have an absolute right to effect collection of
any of the Receivables or Collateral with respect to which the Lender holds
a security interest without the necessity of according to the Borrower any
prior notice or hearing. This shall be a continuing waiver and remain in
full force and effect so long as the Borrower is obligated to the Lender.
5WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND CONSENT TO JURISDICTION.
------------------------------------------------------------
The Borrower hereby waives the right to trial by jury in any action or
proceeding of any kind or nature in any court in which an action may be
commenced arising out of this Loan Agreement, the Supplemental Agreements
or any assignment thereof or by reason of any other cause or dispute
between the Borrower and the Lender.
The Borrower hereby further agrees that the following courts:
State Court - Any state or local court of the State of Connecticut.
22
<PAGE>
Federal Court - United States District Court for the District of
Connecticut.
or at the option of the Lender, any court in which the Lender shall
initiate legal or equitable proceedings and which has subject matter
jurisdiction over the matter in controversy, shall have exclusive
jurisdiction to hear and determine any claims or disputes between the
Borrower and the Lender pertaining directly or indirectly to this Loan
Agreement or to any matter arising in connection with this Loan Agreement.
The Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction
in any action or proceeding commenced in such courts, hereby waiving
personal service of the summons and complaint, or other process or papers
issued therein, and agreeing that service of such summons and complaint, or
other process or papers, may be made by registered or certified mail
addressed to the Borrower at the address set forth herein. Should the
Borrower fail to appear or answer any summons, complaint, process or papers
so served within thirty (30) days after the mailing thereof, it shall be
deemed in default and an order and/or judgment may be entered against it as
demanded or prayed for in such summons, complaint, process or papers. The
exclusive choice of forum set forth herein shall not be deemed to preclude
the enforcement of any judgement obtained in such forum or the taking of
any action under this Loan Agreement to enforce the same in any appropriate
jurisdiction.
6SETOFF. All sums at any time standing to the Borrower's credit on the
------
Lender's books and all of the Borrower's property at any time in the
Lender's possession, or upon or in which the Lender has a lien or security
interest shall be security for all Obligations. In addition to and not in
limitation of the above, with respect to any deposits or property of the
Borrower in the Lender's bank, or in the Lender's possession or control,
now or in the future, the Lender shall have the right to setoff all or any
portion thereof, at any time, against any Obligations hereunder, even
though unmatured, without prior notice or demand to the Borrower.
7TAXES. Upon request of the Lender, the Borrower will furnish the Lender
-----
with proof satisfactory to the Lender of the payment or deposit of F.I.C.A.
and withholding taxes required of the Borrower by applicable law. Such
proof shall be furnished within five (5) days after the due date
established by law for each such payment or deposit. Should the Borrower
fail to make any such payment or deposit or
23
<PAGE>
furnish such proof, the Lender may, in the Lender's sole and absolute
discretion, and without notice to the Borrower: (a) make payment of the
same or any part thereof; or (b) set up such reserves in the Borrower's
account as the Lender may deem necessary to satisfy the liability therefor.
Each amount so deposited or paid by the Lender shall constitute an advance
and shall be secured by all Collateral held by the Lender. Nothing herein
contained shall obligate the Lender to make such deposit or payment or set
up such reserve, nor shall the making of one or more such deposits or
payments or the setting up of any such reserve constitute: (i) an agreement
on the Lender's part to take any further or similar action; or (ii) a
waiver of any default by the Borrower under the terms hereof or of any
other agreements between the Borrower and the Lender. Upon the expiration
or termination of this Loan Agreement or transactions hereunder, the Lender
shall retain its security interest in all Collateral held by the Lender
until the Borrower shall have paid or discharged all such F.I.C.A. and tax
obligations accrued to the date of such expiration or termination, or shall

provisions have been made therefor. In addition, the Borrower shall pay any

in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of any

Nothing in this Loan Agreement shall be construed to modify or limit the
unconditional right of the Lender in its sole discretion to demand full or

Obligation. The right to make demand on any such Obligation shall exist
whether or not the Borrower is in compliance with the covenants or
conditions contained in this Loan Agreement or in any other agreements
between the Borrower and the Lender.
2RIGHTS OF THE LENDER. In the event demand for payment is made of any
--------------------
demand Obligation or upon an Event of Default and at any time thereafter,
all the Obligations shall, at the Lender's option, immediately become due
and payable without presentment, protest, notice of protest or other notice
of dishonor of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
Borrower; and the Lender shall have, in addition to all other rights
provided herein and in any Supplemental Agreement, the rights and remedies
of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code; and, further, the
Lender may sell and deliver any or all Receivables and any or all other
security and Collateral held by the Lender or for the Lender at public or
private sale, for cash, upon credit or
26
<PAGE>
otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Lender deems
advisable, at the Lender's sole discretion. In addition to all other sums
due the Lender, the Borrower will pay to the Lender all costs and expenses
incurred by the Lender, including an allowance for attorneys' fees, to

rights and remedies under this Loan Agreement will be cumulative and not
exclusive of any other right or remedy which the Lender may have.

interest rate or rates be more than the rate of interest permitted by the law
governing this Note. The "BASE RATE" is herein defined to mean the interest
rate announced from time to time by the Lender as its base rate. The Base Rate
is not necessarily the lowest rate available.
The Borrower may convert the interest rate payable hereunder to a fixed
rate ("FIXED RATE") equal to (1) the Lender's cost of funds rate, which cost of
funds rate will be based on the number of months remaining until the Maturity
Date, calculated three (3) business days prior to the effective date of such
interest rate

<PAGE>
conversion or (2) the LIBOR Rate, plus two hundred (200) basis points, quoted by
the Lender two (2) business days prior to the interest period agreed upon
between the Borrower and the Lender (the "INTEREST PERIOD") for the offering by
prime commercial banks to other prime commercial banks in the interbank
Eurodollar market of dollar deposit for a period equal to the Interest Period.
The LIBOR Rate shall be increased by the marginal reserve percentages as
prescribed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System for
determining reserve requirements for the Lender for Eurodollar deposits having a
maturity equal to the Interest Period.
If the interest rate in effect under this note is the Variable Rate, the
Borrower may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time without penalty.
All such prepayments shall be applied on account of principal remaining unpaid
and shall be accompanied by payment of unpaid late charges and accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, thereon. All partial prepayments of principal shall be
credited to the unpaid principal of this Note in the inverse order of maturity
and shall not affect the Borrower's obligation to make the regular installments
required hereunder until this Note is fully paid.

Borrower may not prepay this Note except as set forth in this paragraph. Under
no circumstances may there by a partial prepayment of this Note. The Borrower

amounts, as determined by the Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, as
may be necessary to reimburse the Lender for any losses and expenses incurred by
the Lender as a result of prepayment of this Note, including without limitation
any losses (including loss of anticipated profits) and expenses incurred by
reason of the liquidation or re-employment of deposits or other funds acquired
by the Lender to fund or maintain this Note. The Borrower hereby acknowledges
that in reliance upon this agreement, the Lender has made certain commitments of
funds upon the terms and conditions of this Note. In the event that this Note
is accelerated for any reason whatsoever by the Lender, such payment of the
Lender's losses and expenses shall be paid by the Borrower.
If the Lender shall deem applicable to this Note (including the borrowed
and the unused portion thereof) any requirement of any law of the United States
of America, any regulation, order, interpretation, ruling, official directive or
guideline (whether or not having the force of law) of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System, the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation or any other board or governmental or administrative

any cost that is attributable to the maintenance thereof, then, and in each such
event, the Borrower shall promptly pay the Lender, upon its demand, such amount
as will compensate the Lender for any such cost, which determination may be
based upon the Lender's reasonable allocation of the aggregate of such costs
resulting from such events. In the event any such cost is a continuing cost, a
fee payable to the Lender may be imposed upon the Borrower periodically for so
long as any such cost is deemed applicable to the Lender, in an amount
determined by the Lender to be necessary to compensate the Lender for any such
cost. The determination by the Lender of the existence and amount of any such
cost shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive.

Rate shall remain at all times one (1) point above the interest rate or rates
specified above. Any adjustments in the Default Rate shall be effective
simultaneously with a change in the Base Rate.

installment of interest or principal, or of any taxes, assessments and insurance
paid by the Lender which is not paid or reimbursed by the Borrower within ten
(10) days of the due date thereof to cover the extra expense involved in
handling such delinquent payment.

accrued and unpaid interest and the balance on account of the unpaid principal
of this Note.

taxes and assessments levied thereon, or upon this Note, or upon the holder
hereof with respect to the same, and together with the reasonable fees of the
attorney of the said holder of this Note and all costs and expenses if this Note

of any security which may be given to secure the payment of this Note, or in any
litigation or controversy arising from or connected
3

sum due under this Note when the same shall be due and payable.
2. The occurrence of an Event of Default, notice of termination or demand
for payment under that certain Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Loan, Term

THOUSAND DOLLARS ($500,000.00), or such lesser amount as has been advanced and

forth) from the date hereof until this Note is fully paid. The interest rate
shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the

Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary set forth herein, if at
any time implementation of any provision hereof shall raise the interest rate
hereon above the lawful maximum, if any, in effect from time to time in the
applicable jurisdiction, then such interest inadvertently collected shall be
deemed to be a partial prepayment of principal and so applied.

unpaid balances thereafter existing from time to time until January 31, 1996.

of funds rate, which cost of funds rate will be based on the number of months
remaining until the Maturity Date, calculated three (3) business days prior to

by the Lender two (2) business days prior to the interest period agreed upon
between the Borrower and the Lender (the "INTEREST PERIOD") for the offering by
prime commercial banks to other prime commercial banks in the interbank
Eurodollar market of dollar deposit for a period equal to the Interest Period.

in such notice, shall not relieve the Borrower from its obligations hereunder.

GROS-ITE INDUSTRIES 1994
GROS-ITE SPINDLE ANNUAL
AMERICAN RESEARCH REPORT
NATURAL COOL, LTD.
<PAGE>
Edac Technologies Corporation, also known as Gros-Ite Industries, is a
diversified company. It primarily offers design and manufacturing services for
the aerospace industry in areas such as jet engine parts, special tooling,
equipment and gauges, and components used in the manufacture, assembly and
inspection of jet engines. Edac also offers design and manufacturing services
for the medical instruments industry in such areas as components used in the
manufacture of surgical instruments and special tooling. Edac also designs and
manufactures specialized machines for a variety of other applications.
Gros-Ite Spindle specializes in the design, manufacture and repair of
precision spindles. Spindles are an integral part of numerous machine tools
which are found in virtually any type of manufacturing environment. For 13 years
Gros-Ite Spindle has been servicing the industry with high quality standard and
custom spindles.
American Research, a 40 year old company acquired by Edac in 1986, offers
custom designed environmental test chambers which duplicate hostile conditions
such as high altitude, wind and dust, compression, humidity, decompression,
temperature and explosions. This equipment is sold to customers in the
aerospace, automotive and electronics industries, among others.
Edac maintains manufacturing and design facilities with computerized
numerically controlled machining centers, and grinding, welding, and sheet metal
fabrication, painting and assembly capabilities. Items manufactured by Edac
include precision rings, and other components for jet engines, components for
medical instruments, as well as industrial spindles, environmental test chambers
and specialized machinery designed by Edac or others and other assemblies
requiring close tolerances.
Marketing and Competition
-------------------------
Edac has numerous competitors both in design and manufacturing. Many of the
independent firms with which it competes are smaller than Edac and do not
provide the variety of high quality services that Edac provides. Edac also
competes with its customers' in-house manufacturing and technical services
capabilities. Edac believes that it is able to compete effectively with
independent firms and customers' in-house capabilities because of Edac's
emphasis on customer service, its experience and its competitive pricing of its
services.
For its fiscal year ended December 31, 1994, approximately 69% of Edac's net
sales were derived from sales to United Technologies Corporation.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues from the Company's principal markets are as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
In Thousands of Dollars 1994 1993 1992
-------------------------- -------- -------- --------
<S> <C> <C> <C>
Aerospace customers....... $15,810 $16,576 $18,772
Medical customers......... 1,161 6,819 15,085
Other..................... 5,268 5,936 4,395
</TABLE>
Net sales decreased $7,092,000 or 24% in 1994 from 1993. Aerospace sales
decreased $766,000 or 5% from 1993 while sales to medical customers declined by
$5,658,000 or 83%. During 1994, the Company's principal aerospace customer
continued to implement cost savings initiatives including personnel reductions,
vendor consolidations and facility closings to respond to the decline in
military and commercial aviation markets. While this negatively impacted the
Company's revenues, the Company remains an approved supplier of this customer.
The Company's principal medical customer consolidated its vendor base resulting
in the Company receiving few orders in 1994, which level of activity is not
expected to increase in 1995. Sales to other customers decreased $668,000 or 11%
reflecting a decrease in specialized machine sales offset slightly by increased
spindle sales.
Net sales decreased $8,921,000 or 23% in 1993 from 1992. Decreased sales
were due primarily to the Company's medical instruments customers. Sales to
medical instruments customers decreased by $8,266,000 or 55% from 1992. Sales to
aerospace customers decreased by $2,196,000 or 12% from 1992. Sales to customers
in other markets increased by $1,541,000 or 35% from 1992.
In late 1992, pricing concessions were granted to the Company's principal
aerospace customer for ongoing production orders. The Company negotiated price
concessions with its suppliers and implemented cost control programs to mitigate
that concession.
Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased in 1994 to 86.0% from 85.0%
in 1993 due primarily to the effect of spreading fixed overhead over lower
production levels. Additionally, the Company incurred expense in moving certain
machines and departments within the Company to better utilize its existing
facilities. The American Research department was moved to newly leased
facilities.
Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased in 1993 to 85.0% from 83.4%
in 1992 due to the above mentioned reduced prices from aerospace customers and
the effect of spreading fixed overhead over lower production levels. In
addition, the Company had lower sales and reduced prices to its principal
medical customer.
Selling, general and administrative costs increased $14,000 in 1994 from
1993 due to additional sales personnel and increased travel and telephone
expense, offset by reduced compensation expense.
4
<PAGE>
In 1993 selling, general and administrative costs decreased by $624,000 or
18.9% from 1992. This decrease is the result of the Company's cost reduction
programs implemented early in the year in response to the contracting aerospace
and medical markets. The Company amended its defined benefit plan as of April 1,
1993 to cease benefit accruals. This resulted in a reduction of pension expense
of $282,000. In addition, commission expense decreased by $69,000, amortization
expense decreased by $68,000 and compensation and other expenses decreased by
$205,000.
INTEREST AND OTHER
Interest expense in 1994 was $433,000, a decrease of $90,000 from 1993. This
decrease reflects a reduction in overall borrowing levels throughout the year
offset slightly by an increasing interest rate on the Company's revolving line
of credit.
Interest expense in 1993 was $523,000, a decrease of $222,000 from 1992.
This decrease reflects a reduction in overall borrowing levels throughout the
year. Additionally, the Company refinanced term debt with a fixed interest rate
of 10.15% in March 1993 with $4,000,000 of new term debt with a fixed interest
rate of 7.65%.
Other income for 1994 was $72,000 consisting primarily of insurance proceeds
received.
Other expense for 1993 was $11,000 reflecting a loss on an investment. Other
income of $36,000 for 1992 reflects insurance proceeds received.
INCOME TAXES
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No.
109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" in 1992. There was no cumulative effect of
adopting this change as of January 1, 1992 because of the Company's net
operating loss position at time of adoption. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax
expenses or credits are based on the changes in deferred tax assets and
liabilities from period to period.
The effective rates of 0% for 1994, 37.5% for 1993 and 36.7% for 1992
reflects the utilization of the Company's net operating loss carryforward,
limited to $181,000 per year. (See note F). The Company expects to recognize the
benefit from its remaining net operating loss carryover only to the extent such
amounts are realized for tax purposes and are not required to offset required
deferred tax liabilities.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company assesses its liquidity in terms of its ability to generate cash
to fund its operating and investing activities. Of particular importance to the
Company's liquidity are cash flows
5
<PAGE>
generated from operating activities, capital expenditure levels and available
bank lines of credit.
The following is selected cash flow data from the Statements of Cash Flows:

Net cash flow from

Net cash flow from

</TABLE>
Net cash flow from operating activities in 1994 primarily reflect net income
and non-cash charges against income. Net cash flow from operating activities in
1993 improved over 1992 due to reduced inventory levels. Net cash flows from
investing activities for all years primarily reflect purchases of fixed assets
consisting mainly of machinery and equipment. Expenditures have been necessary
to add capacity and to increase productivity.
The following is selected capitalization data from the Balance Sheets:

</TABLE>
The Company believes that there are sales opportunities in providing larger
machining capabilities to the aerospace engine industry, as airframe
manufacturers are demanding larger engines. In 1994, the Company purchased
several used large machines capable of producing parts for the larger engines.
The Company anticipates constructing in 1995, a 20,000 square foot building
adjacent to its existing buildings. The large machine that the Company has
committed to purchase in 1995 (See note G) along with the other large machines
purchased in 1994 will be placed in service in the new building. Including the
building, the Company anticipates spending approximately $2.2 million in 1995 on
capital expenditures. The Company has secured a mortgage commitment from its
bank for the new building. In addition, it has an equipment line of credit with
its bank which provides up to
6
<PAGE>
$500,000 in 1995 for equipment purchases, and it has secured an extended payment
agreement for the purchase of $690,000 of equipment. (See note G)
In March 1993, the Company completed a refinancing of $4,000,000 of term
debt with its bank reducing its fixed interest rate and its annual payments.
Principal payments were reduced by $500,000 for 1994, $1,701,000 for 1995 and by
$353,000 for 1996. By refinancing its term debt under favorable conditions and
thereby favorably impacting cash flow for 1995 and 1996, management believes the
Company is well positioned to respond to a healthier aerospace market. The
Company has a revolving line of credit with its bank which provides up to
$7,000,000 ($1,386,530 outstanding at December 31, 1994) limited by a formula
based on percentages of the Company's receivables and inventory.
Management believes that the funds generated from operations, as well funds
available from existing financing agreements, will be sufficient to meet the
Company's cash flow needs throughout 1995.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
EDAC TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION
DECEMBER 31, 1994
NOTE A -- ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION
Until May 12, 1989, Edac Technologies Corporation (the Company) was a subsidiary
of Cade Industries, Inc. (Cade) which owned approximately 57% of the Company's
outstanding Common Stock. Effective May 12, 1989, Cade sold its investment in
the Company's Common Stock to a partnership comprised of certain members of the
Company's management and the Edac Technologies Corporation Employee Stock
Ownership Plan (ESOP). The Partnership owns 27.4% and the ESOP owns 27.1% of
the Company's outstanding Common Stock as of December 31, 1994.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, Gros-Ite Industries, Inc. and
Natural Cool, Ltd. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated from the
consolidated financial statements.
Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out
method) or market.
Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment are stated at
cost. Provisions for depreciation and amortization are computed using the
straight-line method over 3 to 12 years for machinery and equipment and 25 years
for buildings for financial reporting purposes. For income tax reporting
purposes, straight-line and accelerated methods are used.
Earnings Per Share: Earnings per share is based on the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding during the year, plus the dilutive effect,
if any, of outstanding stock options.
NOTE B -- COMMON STOCK AND STOCK OPTIONS
On December 5, 1991, the Board of Directors adopted the 1991 Stock Option Plan
(the Plan). The Plan is non-qualified and provides for the granting of up to
325,000 options to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock. The option
price is the fair market value of the shares on the date of the grant. Options
may be exercised at the rate of 33 1/3% six months after the grant date, another
33 1/3% one year after the grant date and the remaining 33 1/3% two years after
the grant date. Options may be granted under the Plan through December 5, 2001.
During 1991, options to purchase 282,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at
$.5625 per share were granted under the Plan.
On January 1, 1994, options to purchase 100,000 restricted shares were granted
to an officer at an exercise price of $.5625 per share. On October 1, 1994,
25,000 of these options became exercisable. An additional 25,000 become
exercisable each January 1 thereafter through January 1, 1997.
During 1994, 1993, and 1992, options for 29,334, 46,998 and 40,664 shares,
respectively, were exercised at $.5625 per share. At December 31, 1994, there
were options outstanding for the purchase of 265,004 shares at $.5625 per share
of which 190,004 were exercisable.

</TABLE>
The Company also has a Revolving Loan and Security Agreement (the Agreement)
which provides for a revolving line of credit with a borrowing base limited to
an amount which is the lesser of $10,000,000 or an amount determined by a
formula based on percentages of the Company's receivables and inventory. The
revolving line of credit bears interest at the bank's base rate of interest
(8.5% at December 31, 1994) on borrowings up to $3,000,000, base rate plus 1/4
on borrowings from $3,000,001 to $6,000,000 and base rate plus 1/2 on borrowings
from $6,000,001 to $10,000,000. Effective February 28, 1995, the Agreement was
amended to revise the borrowing base to the lesser of $7,000,000 or an amount
determined by a formula based on percentages of the Company's receivables and
inventory and extend the maturity of the Agreement from January 31, 1995 to
January 31, 1996. The interest rate was amended to the bank's base rate of
interest. The Agreement also provides for an equipment line of credit which
provides loan advances of 75% of equipment purchases up to an aggregate amount
of $500,000, with interest payable monthly at the bank's base rate plus 0.5%.
The principal amount outstanding as of February 1, 1995 will be paid in 60 equal
payments commencing February 1, 1995. Interest will be charged monthly after
February 1, 1995 at the bank's base rate plus 0.5% or, upon election of the
Company, at a fixed rate equal to 3% above the bank's five-year average cost of
funds. At December 31, 1994, the Company had borrowed $208,837 on the equipment
line. The Agreement, as amended on February 28, 1995, provides as of February
1, 1995 a second equipment line of credit which provides loan advances of 75% of
equipment purchases up to an aggregate amount of $500,000 through January 31,
1996 with interest payable monthly at the bank's base rate plus 0.5%. The
principal amount outstanding as of February 1, 1996 will be paid in 60 equal
payments commencing February 1, 1996. Interest will be charged monthly after
February 1, 1996 at the bank's base rate plus 0.5% or, upon election of the
Company, at a fixed rate equal to 3% above the bank's cost of funds. The
Agreement also provides for a five-year term loan in the original amount of
$4,000,000 ($3,719,444 outstanding at December 31, 1994).
At December 31, 1994 and 1993, borrowings outstanding under the revolving line
of credit and the equipment line amounted to $1,595,367 and $1,874,565,
respectively. The unused portion of the line of credit was approximately
$4,730,965 as of December 31, 1994 (based on a borrowing base determined by the
formula).
To secure all obligations of the Company under the Agreement, the bank has a
first priority security interest in the Company's accounts receivable,
inventories, equipment, real estate and other assets. The Agreement requires,
among other things, minimum levels of net income, no material adverse changes in
the financial condition of the company and the maintenance of certain financial
ratios including debt to net worth, interest coverage, current and debt service
ratios. The Agreement also prohibits payment of dividends, issuance, redemption
or sale of common stock, and creation of certain other encumbrances and
contingent liabilities without the consent of the bank and limits the amount of
annual capital expenditures. The Company was in compliance with all loan
covenants, as amended, at December 31, 1994.

Aggregate annual maturities of long-term debt for the five year period
subsequent to December 31, 1994 are as follows: 1995--$245,383; 1996--$258,062;
1997--$273,347; 1998--$3,253,763; and 1999--$38,889.
NOTE D -- PENSION PLAN
The Company maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering
substantially all employees meeting certain minimum age and service
requirements. The benefits are generally based on years of service and
employees' compensation during the last five years of employment. The Company's
policy is to contribute annually the amount necessary to satisfy the
requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
In March 1993, the Board of Directors approved a curtailment to the plan which
resulted in the freezing of all future benefits under the plan as of April 1,
1993. As a result, the Company recognized a gain of $361,929 in 1993.
The following table sets forth the plan's funded status and amounts recognized
in the Company's financial statements:

<PAGE>
The weighted-average discount rate used in determining the actuarial present
value of the projected benefit obligation was 7.5%. The expected long-term rate
of return on plan assets was 7%.
In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions," the Company recorded an
additional liability with a corresponding reduction in stockholders' equity of
$132,598 relating to the change in the discount rate from 8.0% to 7.5%
subsequent to the curtailment of the plan.
In July 1991, the Company established a 401(k) defined contribution plan. The
Company matches 10% of employee contributions up to 4% of compensation.
Employer contributions and expense related to this plan were $10,508, $17,891,
and $17,309 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
NOTE E -- EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN
Effective May 4, 1989, the Company established the Edac Technologies Corporation
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the ESOP). Employees of the Company are eligible
to participate in the ESOP beginning six months following their hire date. The
Company's contributions to the ESOP are determined annually by the Board of
Directors. The Company records the expense in the amount of contributions made
to the ESOP. The Company contributed $104,500, $105,000, and $111,000, to the
ESOP for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
At December 31, 1994, the ESOP owned 973,802 shares of the Company's Common
Stock. These shares were purchased using the proceeds of a $700,000 note payable
to a bank for which repayment has been guaranteed by the Company. Interest
expense incurred on the debt was $26,357, $26,772. and $32,679, for the years
ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
In the accompanying financial statements, the outstanding debt of the ESOP has
been included in the Company's long-term debt, and shareholders' equity has been
decreased by a corresponding amount. As the principal amount of the loan is
repaid, the liability and the amount offset against shareholders' equity will be
reduced in equal amounts.
NOTE F -- INCOME TAXES
Effective January 1, 1992, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under SFAS No. 109,
deferred tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between
the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using
the enacted marginal tax rate. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are
based on the changes in the deferred tax assets and liabilities from period to
period. Because of the Company's net operating loss carryforward position, there
was no cumulative effect of adopting this change as of January 1, 1992.
Income tax expense (benefit) are included in the financial statements as follows
(in 000's):

Due to the change in ownership during 1989 (see Note A), provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code restrict the utilization of net operating loss
carryforwards (NOLs) attributed to the period prior to the change in ownership.
As of December 31, 1994, the Company has pre-change NOLs of approximately
$1,521,000 available to offset future federal taxable income of which the
company is limited to annual utilization of approximately $181,000. These NOLs
expire in the year 2003. The Company has alternative minimum tax credits of
approximately $268,000 which carry forward indefinitely for Federal income tax
purposes. These credits can be used in the future to the extent that the
Company's regular tax liability exceeds amounts calculated under the alternative
minimum tax method.
