To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of MAXTECH Incorporated
State College, Pennsylvania
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of MAXTECH Incorporated as of
December 31, 1994, and the related statements of income, stockholders' equity
and cash flows 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 evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to in the first paragraph
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MAXTECH,
Incorporated as of December 31, 1994, and the results of operations and their
cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

purchase price includes cash paid at closing of $4,049,000, four-year
unsecured promissory notes in the aggregate principal sum of $1,750,000 and
direct acquisition costs incurred of $200,000. An additional sum of

over fifteen years using the straight line method.
In connection with the purchase of Maxtech, contingent consideration is due
for the amount equal to 50% of the net pre-tax income above $1,750,000 that
Maxtech earns for the cumulative period of three years and nine months
ending September 30, 1998 not to exceed $2,250,000. This contingent
consideration, if any, will be recorded as additional goodwill and
amortized over the remaining life of the intangible asset as discussed
