     NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included
  herein have been prepared by Duke Realty Investments, Inc. (the
  "Company") without audit. The statements have been prepared in
  accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
  interim financial information and the instructions for Form 10-Q
  and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. 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. These financial
  statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
  financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
  Annual Report to Shareholders.
   
  THE COMPANY
  
  The Company's rental operations are conducted through Duke Realty
  Limited Partnership ("DRLP"), of which the Company owns 88.2% at
  June 30, 1998. The remaining interests in DRLP ("Limited Partner
  Units") are exchangeable for shares of the Company's common stock
  on a one-for-one basis. In addition, the Company conducts
  operations through Duke Realty Services Limited Partnership and
  Duke Construction Limited Partnership, in which the Company's
  wholly-owned subsidiary, Duke Services, Inc., is the sole general
  partner. The consolidated financial statements include the
  accounts of the Company and its majority-owned or controlled
  subsidiaries. The equity interests in these majority-owned or
  controlled subsidiaries not owned by the Company are reflected as
  minority interests in the consolidated financial statements.
  
2. LINES OF CREDIT
   
  The Company has a $250 million unsecured revolving credit
  facility which is available to fund the development and
  acquisition of additional rental properties and to provide
  working capital. The revolving line of credit matures in April
  2001 and bears interest at the 30-day London Interbank Offered
  Rate ("LIBOR") plus .80%. The Company also has a demand $7
  million secured revolving credit facility which is available to
  provide working capital. This facility bears interest at the 30-
  day LIBOR rate plus .65%.
  
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
  
  The Company provides property management, maintenance, leasing,
  construction, and other tenant related services to properties in
  which certain executive officers have continuing ownership
  interests. The Company was paid fees totaling $1.1 million and
  $1.7 million for such services for the six months ended June 30,
  1998 and 1997, respectively. Management believes the terms for
  such services are equivalent to those available in the market.
  The Company has an option to purchase the executive officers'
  interest in each of these properties which expires October 2003.
  The option price of each property was established at the date the
  option was granted.
                                     
                              -6-

4. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

  Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net
  income available for common shares by the weighted average number
  of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per
  share is computed by dividing the sum of net income available for
  common shares and minority interest in earnings of unitholders, by
  the sum of the weighted average number of common shares and
  dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the period.
  
  The following table reconciles the components of basic and
  diluted net income per common share for the three and six months
  ended June 30:

  INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT
  --------------------------------------
  
  The Board of Directors
  DUKE REALTY INVESTMENTS, INC.:
  
  We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Duke
  Realty Investments, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 1998,
  the related condensed consolidated statements of operations for
  the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the
  related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the
  six months ended June 30,1998 and 1997, and the related condensed
  consolidated statement of shareholders' equity for the six months
  ended June 30, 1998. These condensed consolidated financial
  statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
  
  We conducted our review in accordance with standards established
  by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A
  review of interim financial information consists principally of
  applying analytical procedures to financial data and making
  inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
  matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit
  conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing
  standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion
  regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly,
  we do not express such an opinion.
  
  Based on our review, we are not aware of any material
  modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated
  financial statements referred to above for them to be in
  conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
  
  We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
  auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Duke Realty
  Investments, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997, and
  the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows

  ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
           CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
  OVERVIEW
  --------
  
  The Company's operating results depend primarily upon income from
  the rental operations of its industrial, office and retail
  properties located in its primary markets. This income from
  rental operations is substantially influenced by the supply and
  demand for the Company's rental space in its primary markets. In
  addition, the Company's continued growth is dependent upon its
  ability to maintain occupancy rates and increase rental rates of
  its in-service portfolio and to continue development and
  acquisition of additional rental properties.
  
  The Company's primary markets in the Midwest have continued to
  offer strong and stable local economies and have provided
  attractive new development opportunities because of their central
  location, established manufacturing base, skilled work force and
  moderate labor costs. Consequently, the Company's occupancy rate
  of its in-service portfolio has exceeded 94% the last two years.
  The Company expects to continue to maintain its overall occupancy
  levels at comparable levels and also expects to be able to
  increase rental rates as leases are renewed or new leases are
  executed. This stable occupancy as well as increasing rental
  rates should improve the Company's results of operations from its
  in-service properties. The Company's strategy for continued
  growth also includes developing and acquiring additional rental
  properties in its primary markets and expanding into other
  attractive Midwestern markets.
  
  The following table sets forth information regarding the
  Company's in-service portfolio of rental properties as of June
  30, 1998 and 1997 (in thousands, except percentages):

  Management expects occupancy of the in-service property portfolio
  to remain stable because (i) only 5.3% and 11.8% of the Company's
  occupied square footage is subject to leases expiring in the
  remainder of 1998 and in 1999, respectively, and (ii) the
  Company's renewal percentage averaged 81%, 80% and 65% in 1997,
  1996 and 1995, respectively.

  This stable occupancy, along with increasing rental rates in each
  of the Company's markets, will allow the in-service portfolio to
  continue to provide a comparable or increasing level of earnings
  from rental operations.  The Company also expects to realize
  growth in earnings from rental operations through (i) the
  development and acquisition of additional rental properties in
  its primary markets; (ii) the expansion into other attractive
  Midwestern markets; and (iii) the completion of the 4.2 million
  square feet of properties under development at June 30, 1998 over
  the next four quarters.  The 4.2 million square feet of
  properties under development is expected to provide future
  earnings from rental operations growth for the Company as they
  are placed in service as follows (in thousands, except percent

  COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 TO THREE MONTHS ENDED 
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------
  JUNE 30, 1997

  Rental Operations
  -----------------
  
  The Company increased its in-service portfolio of rental
  properties from 262 properties comprising 31.4 million square
  feet at June 30, 1997 to 419 properties comprising 48.2 million
  square feet at June 30, 1998 through the acquisition of 124
  properties totaling 10.1 million square feet and the completion
  of 37 properties and 3 building expansions totaling 7.0 million
  square feet developed by the Company.  The Company also disposed
  of 4 properties totaling approximately 300,000 square feet.
  These 157 net additional rental properties primarily account for
  the $31.5 million increase in revenues from Rental Operations
  from 1997 to 1998.  The increase from 1997 to 1998 in rental
  expenses, real estate taxes and depreciation and amortization
  expense is also a result of the additional 157 in-service rental
  properties.
  
  Interest expense increased by approximately $4.6 million from
  $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $14.3
  million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 primarily due to
  additional unsecured debt issued in the third quarter of 1997 and
  the first two quarters of 1998 to fund the development and
  acquisition of additional rental properties.
  
  As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from rental
  operations increased $11.9 million from $18.4 million for the
  three months ended June 30, 1997 to $30.3 million for the three
  months ended June 30, 1998.
  
  Service Operations
  ------------------
  
  Service Operations revenues increased to $7.0 million for the
  three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $5.1 million for
  the three months ended June 30, 1997 primarily as a result of
  increases in construction management fee revenue because of an
  increase in third-party construction volume.
  
                                   -11-

  Service Operations operating expenses increased from $3.4 million
  to $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as
  compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997 primarily as a
  result of an increase in construction activity and the overall
  growth of the Company.
  
  As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from Service
  Operations increased from $1.7 million for the three months ended
  June 30, 1997 to $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30,
  1998.

  General and Administrative Expense
  -----------------------------------

  General and administrative expense increased from $1.6 million
  for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $3.1 million for the
  three months ended June 30, 1998 primarily as a result of
  internal acquisition costs which are no longer permitted to be
  capitalized being charged to general and administrative expense
  as well as an increase in state and local income taxes resulting
  from the overall growth of the Company.
  
  Other Income (Expense)
  ----------------------
  
  Interest income increased from $177,000 for the three months
  ended June 30, 1997 to $400,000 for the three months ended June
  30, 1998 primarily as a result of interest income which was
  earned on short-term investments during the three months ended
  June 30, 1998.  Other expense consists of costs incurred during
  the pursuit of various build-to-suit development projects or the
  acquisition of real estate assets.  During the three months ended
  June 30, 1997, approximately $312,000 of costs were expensed in
  connection with the decision to abandon the acquisition of a
  large real estate portfolio.
  
  Net Income Available for Common Shares
  ---------------------------------------
  
  Net income available for common shares for the three months ended
  June 30, 1998 was $21.9 million compared to net income available
  for common shares of $14.7 million for the three months ended
  June 30, 1997.  This increase results primarily from the
  operating result fluctuations in rental and service operations
  explained above.

  of 37 properties and 3 building expansions totaling 7.0 million
  square feet developed by the Company. The Company also disposed
  of 4 properties totaling approximately 300,000 square feet. These
  157 net additional rental properties primarily account for the
  $60.3 million increase in revenues from Rental Operations from
  1997 to 1998. The Company received approximately $4.0 million of
  lease termination payments which are included in rental income
  for the six months ended June 30, 1998.  Included in rental
  income for the six months ended June 30, 1997 are approximately
  $1.7 of million lease termination payments. The increase from
  1997 to 1998 in rental expenses, real estate taxes and
  depreciation and amortization expense is also a result of the
  additional 157 in-service rental properties.

  additional unsecured debt issued in the third quarter of 1997 and
  the first two quarters of 1998 to fund the development and
  acquisition of additional rental properties.
  
  As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from rental

  the six months ended June 30, 1997 primarily as a result of
  increases in construction management fee revenue because of an
  increase in third-party construction volume. Service Operations
  operating expenses increased from $6.9 million to $9.2 million
  for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six
  months ended June 30, 1997 primarily as a result of an increase
  in construction activity and the overall growth of the Company.
  
  As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from Service
  Operations increased from $2.2 million for the six months ended
  June 30, 1997 to $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30,
  1998.

  ----------------------------------
  
  General and administrative expense increased from $2.9 million
  for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $5.4 million for the
  six months ended June 30, 1998 primarily as a result of internal
  acquisition costs which are no longer permitted to be capitalized
  being charged to general and administrative expense as well as an
  increase in state and local income taxes resulting from the
  overall growth of the Company.
  
  Other Income (Expense)
  ----------------------
  
  Interest income increased from $427,000 for the six months ended
  June 30, 1997 to $589,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998
  primarily as a result of interest income which was earned on
  short-term investments during the six months ended June 30, 1998.
  Other expense consists of costs incurred in pursuit of
  unsuccessful development or acquisition opportunities.  During
  the six months ended June 30, 1997, approximately $312,000 of

  June 30, 1998 was $44.1 million compared to net income available
  for common shares of $29.7 million for the six months ended June

  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
  
  Net cash provided by operating activities totaling $100.3 million
  and $71.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and
  1997, respectively, represents the primary source of liquidity to
  fund distributions to shareholders, unitholders and the other
  minority interests and to fund recurring costs associated with
  the renovation and re-letting of the Company's properties.
                                     
  This increase is primarily a result of, as discussed above under
  "Results of Operations," the increase in net income resulting
  from the expansion of the in-service portfolio through
  development and acquisitions of additional rental properties.
                                     
  Net cash used by investing activities totaling $351.5 million and
  $175.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
  respectively, represents the investment of funds by the Company
  to expand its portfolio of rental properties through the
  development and acquisition of additional rental properties. In
  1998, $315.5 million was invested in the development and
  acquisition of additional rental properties and the acquisition
  of land held for development. In 1997, the investment in the
  development and acquisition of additional rental properties and
  land held for development was $153.3 million. Included in the
  $315.5 million of net cash used by investing activities for the
  development and acquisition of rental properties for the six
  months ended June 30, 1998 are acquisitions of five portfolios
  consisting of twenty-one industrial buildings and fifteen office
  buildings.
  
  Net cash provided by financing activities totaling $263.2 million
  and $101.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and
  1997, respectively, represents funds from equity and debt
  offerings and borrowings under the lines of credit to fund the
  Company's investing activities. Also included in financing
  activities is the distribution of funds to shareholders and
  minority interests. In January 1997, the Company received $56.7
  million of net proceeds from a common equity offering which was
  used to pay down amounts outstanding on the unsecured line of
  credit and to fund current development activity. In 1998, the
  Company received $86.8 million of net proceeds from common equity
  offerings which was used to pay down amounts outstanding on the
  unsecured line of credit and to fund current development and
  acquisition activity. During the six months ended June 30, 1998,
  the Company received $13.8 million of net proceeds from the
  issuance of common stock under its Direct Stock Purchase and
  Dividend Reinvestment Plan compared to $7.0 million of net
  proceeds received under the Direct Stock Purchase and Dividend
  Reinvestment Plan during the first six months of 1997. In the
  first quarter of 1998, the Company received $100.0 million of net
  proceeds from the offering of 7.05% Puttable Reset Securities due
  March 1, 2006. In the second quarter of 1998, the Company
  received $100.0 million of proceeds from the offering of 6.75%
  Senior Notes due May 30, 2008.  The Company also received $50.0
  million in proceeds from the issuance of 7.25% notes under the
  Company's medium-term note program.
  
  The Company has a $250 million unsecured line of credit which
  matures in April 2001 and bears interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate
  plus .80%. The Company also has a demand $7 million secured
  revolving credit facility which is available to provide working
  capital. This facility bears interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate
  plus .65%.
  
  The Company currently has on file Form S-3 Registration
  Statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Shelf
  Registrations") which had remaining availability as of July 30,
  1998
                                   -14-

  of approximately $1.2 billion to issue common stock, preferred
  stock or unsecured debt securities. The Company intends to issue
  additional equity or debt under these Shelf Registrations as
  capital needs arise to fund the development and acquisition of
  additional rental properties.
  
  The total debt outstanding at June 30, 1998 consists of notes
  totaling $953.6 million with a weighted average interest rate of
  7.40% maturing at various dates through 2028. The Company has
  $590.0 million of unsecured debt and $363.6 million of secured
  debt outstanding at June 30, 1998.
                                     
  Scheduled principal amortization of such debt totaled $3.4
  million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Following is a
  summary of the scheduled future amortization and maturities of
  the Company's indebtedness at June 30, 1998 (in thousands):

  FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
  
  Management believes that Funds From Operations ("FFO"), which is
  defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment
  Trusts as net income or loss excluding gains or losses from debt
  restructuring and sales of property plus depreciation and
  amortization, and after adjustments for minority interest,
  unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures (adjustments for
  minority interest, unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures
  are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis), is the industry
  standard for reporting the operations of real estate investment
  trusts.

  The increase in FFO for the six months ended June 30, 1998
  compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997 results primarily
  from the increased in-service rental property portfolio as
  discussed above under "Results of Operations."
                                     
  While management believes that FFO is the most relevant and
  widely used measure of the Company's operating performance, such
  amount does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by
  generally accepted accounting principles, should not be
  considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the
  Company's operating performance, and is not indicative of cash
  available to fund all cash flow needs.
  
  RECENTLY ENACTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
  
  In March 1998, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the Financial
  Accounting Standards Board reached a consensus on Issue No. 97-11
  "Accounting for Internal Costs Relating to Real Estate Property
  Acquisitions" which requires the internal cost of pre-acquisition
  activities incurred in connection with the acquisition of an
  operating property be expensed as incurred. During the first
  three months of 1998,  prior to adopting Issue No. 97-11, the
  Company capitalized approximately $275,000 of internal costs of
  pre-acquisition activities which under Issue 97-11 would have
  been expensed.
  
  YEAR 2000
  
  The Company recognizes that the Year 2000 problem could effect
  its operations as well as the proper functioning of the embedded
  systems included in the Company's properties.  In any particular
  property, the problem could effect the functioning of elevators,
  heating and air conditioning systems, security systems and other
  automated building systems.  The Company has begun to evaluate
  the Year 2000 readiness of its operations and those of its
  properties, through identifying and contacting suppliers of
  building systems and other critical business partners to
  determine if the building systems are affected and whether these
  entities have an effective plan in place to address the Year 2000
  issue.  The Company is also in the process of evaluating its own
  systems to determine the impact of the Year 2000.  The Company
  expects to complete this process of inventorying and evaluating
  its and its properties systems by September 1, 1998, and the
  process is currently approximately 80% completed.  Thereafter the
  Company will develop a work plan detailing the tasks and
  resources required to ready its and its properties' operations
  and systems for the Year 2000. This work plan will likely include a
  timetable
                            - 16 -
 <PAGE>
  for remediation and testing of systems, as well as contingency plans if 
  readiness cannot be achieved. In addition, in many cases the Company will
  be relying on statements from outside vendors as to the Year 2000
  readiness of their systems, and will not, in most circumstances,
  attempt any independent verification.  Because the Company is
  still in the preliminary stages of its work to address the Year
  2000 problem, it currently does not have complete estimates as to
  the cost of achieving Year 2000 readiness and has not yet
  developed any contingency plans.  Based on the preliminary
  information received to date, however, the Company currently
  expects that these costs will not be material. The Company
  expects to pass on most of the costs to achieve Year 2000
  readiness in any particular property to the tenants, and will
  otherwise expense the costs as incurred.
  
  There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
  identify and correct all aspects of the Year 2000 problem that
  effect it in sufficient time, that it will develop adequate
  contingency plans or that the costs of achieving Year 2000
  readiness will not be material.  The Company, however, does not
  currently expect the Year 2000 problem will have a material
  impact on the Company's business, operations, or financial
  condition.

                            EXHIBIT A


  SECTION  6.07. Series C Preferred Stock.
                 ------------------------

Pursuant to authority granted under Section 6.01 of the
Corporation's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the
"Articles of Incorporation"), the Board of Directors of the Corporation 
hereby establishes a series of preferred shares designated the Series C 
Junior Preferred Stock ($0.001 par value per share) (the "Series C Preferred
Stock") on the following terms:

     (a)  Number.
          ------
       The number of shares constituting the Series C Preferred
Stock shall initially be 500,000, subject to increase or decrease
by the Board of Directors effectuated by further Articles of
Amendment; provided, however, that no decrease shall reduce the
number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to a number less
than that of the shares then outstanding plus the number of
shares of Series C Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of
outstanding rights, options or warrants or upon conversion of
outstanding securities issued by the Corporation.

     (b)  Dividends and Distributions.
          --------------------------

       (1)  Subject to the prior and superior rights of the
holders of any shares of any series of Preferred Stock ranking
prior and superior to the shares of Series C Preferred Stock with
respect to dividends, each holder of one one-thousandth (1/1,000)
of a share (a "Unit") of Series C Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of
Directors out of funds legally available for that purpose,
quarterly dividends payable in cash to holders of record on the
last business day of March, June, September and December in each
year (each such date being referred to herein as a "Quarterly
Dividend Payment Date"), commencing on the first Quarterly
Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a Unit of
Series C Preferred Stock, in an amount per Unit (rounded to the
nearest cent) equal to the greater of (a) $.001 or (b) subject to
the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, the aggregate
per share amount of all cash dividends declared on shares of the
common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company (the
"Common Stock") since the immediately preceding Quarterly
Dividend Payment Date, or, with respect to the first Quarterly
Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of a Unit of
Series C Preferred Stock, and (ii) subject to the provision for
adjustment hereinafter set forth, quarterly distributions
(payable in kind) on each Quarterly Dividend Payment Date in an
amount per Unit equal to the aggregate per share amount of all
non-cash dividends or other distributions declared on shares of
Common Stock since the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend
Payment Date, or with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend
Payment Date, since the first issuance of a Unit.  In the event
the Corporation shall at any time following August 3, 1998 (the
"Rights Declaration Date") (i) declare any dividend on Common
Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide the
outstanding Common Stock or (iii) combine the outstanding Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the
amount to which holders of Units of Series C Preferred Stock were
entitled immediately prior to such event under clause (b) of the
preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying each such
amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event
and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common
Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
<PAGE>
       (2)  The Corporation shall declare a dividend or
distribution on Units of the Series C Preferred Stock as provided
in paragraph (A) above at the time it declares a dividend or
distribution on the Common Stock; provided, however, that in the
event no dividend or distribution shall have been declared on the
Common Stock during the period between any Quarterly Dividend
Payment Date and the next subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment
Date, a dividend of $.001 per Unit on the Series C Preferred
Stock shall nevertheless be payable on such subsequent Quarterly
Dividend Payment Date.

       (3)  No dividend or distribution shall be paid or payable
to the holders of shares of Common Stock unless, prior thereto,
all accrued but unpaid dividends to the date of such dividend or
distribution shall have been paid to the holders of Units of
Series C Preferred Stock.

       (4)  Dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on
each outstanding Unit from the Quarterly Dividend Payment Date
next preceding the date of issue of such Unit, unless the date of
issue of such Unit is prior to the record date for the first
Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends on such
Unit shall begin to accrue from the date of issue of such shares,
or unless the date of issue is a Quarterly Dividend Payment Date
or is a date after the record date for the determination of
holders of Units of Series C Preferred Stock entitled to receive
a quarterly dividend and before such Quarterly Dividend Payment
Date, in either of which events such dividends shall begin to
accrue and be cumulative from such Quarterly Dividend Payment
Date.  Accrued but unpaid dividends shall not bear interest.
Dividends paid on Units in an amount less than the total amount
of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such Units
shall be allocated pro rata on a Unit-by-Unit basis among all
such Units at the time outstanding.  The Board of Directors may
fix a record date for the determination of holders of Units
entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution
declared thereon, which record date shall be no more than 60 days
prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof.

    (c)  Voting Rights.  The holders of Units shall have the following
         -------------   voting rights:

       (1)  Subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter
set forth, each Unit shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote
on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the
Corporation.  In the event the Corporation shall at any time
following the Rights Dividend Declaration Date (i) declare or pay
any dividend on Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock,
(ii) subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock or (iii)
combine or consolidate the outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the
number of votes per share to which holders of Units were entitled
immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying
such number by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event
and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common
Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

       (2)  Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, the
holders of Units and the holders of shares of Common Stock and
any other capital stock of the Corporation having general voting
rights shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted
to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation.

       (3)  (i)  Whenever, at any time or times, dividends
payable on any Unit or Units shall be in arrears in an amount
equal to at least two full quarterly dividends (whether or not
declared
<PAGE>
and whether or not consecutive), the number of Directors
then constituting the entire Board of Directors of the
Corporation shall automatically be increased by 2 and the holders
of record of the outstanding Units and holders of any other
shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation ranking on a parity
with the Series C Preferred Stock shall have the exclusive right,
voting together as a single class, to elect two directors of the
Corporation at a special meeting of stockholders of the
Corporation to fill such newly-created directorships.  At
elections for such directors, the holders of Units shall be
entitled to cast one vote for each Unit held.

          (ii) So long as any Units are outstanding, the number
of Directors of the Corporation shall at all times be such that
the exercise, by the holders of shares of Series C Preferred
Stock and the holders of shares of Preferred Stock on a parity
therewith, of the right to elect Directors under the
circumstances provided in paragraph (iii) of this subclause (C)
will not contravene any provision of the Indiana Business
Corporation Law or the Articles of Incorporation of the
Corporation.  Any director elected by holders of Units pursuant
to this Section may be removed at any annual or special meeting,
by vote of a majority of the stockholders who elected such
director voting as a class, with or without cause.  In case any
vacancy shall occur among the directors elected by the holders of
Units pursuant to this Section, such vacancy may be filled by the
remaining director so elected, or his successor then in office,
and the director so elected to fill such vacancy shall serve
until the next meeting of stockholders for the election of
directors.  After the holders of Units shall have exercised their
right to elect directors in any default period and during the
continuance of such period, the number of directors shall not be
further increased or decreased except by vote of the holders of Units
as herein provided or pursuant to the rights of any equity securities
ranking senior to or pari passu with the Series C Preferred Stock.

          (iii)  The right of the holders of Units, voting
separately as a class, to elect two members of the Board of
Directors of the Corporation as aforesaid shall continue until,
and only until, such time as all arrears in dividends (whether or
not declared) on the Units shall have been paid or declared and
set apart for payment, at which time such right shall terminate,
except as herein or by law expressly provided, subject to
reinvesting in the event of each and every subsequent default of
the character above-mentioned.  Upon any termination of the right
of the holders of the Units as a class to vote for directors as
herein provided, the term of office of all directors then in
office elected by the holders of Units pursuant to this Section
shall terminate immediately.  Whenever the term of office of the
directors elected by the holders of Units pursuant to this
Section shall terminate and the special voting powers vested in
the holders of the Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section shall
have expired, the maximum number of members of the Board of
Directors of the Corporation shall be such number as may be
provided for in the By-laws of the Corporation, irrespective of
any increase made pursuant to the provisions of this Section.

       (4)  Except as set forth herein, holders of Units shall
have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be
required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with
holders of Common Stock as set forth herein) for taking any
corporate action.

     (d)  Certain Restrictions.
          -------------------
       (1)  Whenever quarterly dividends or other dividends or
distributions payable on the Units as provided in herein are in
arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends
<PAGE>
and distributions, whether or not declared, on outstanding Units
outstanding shall have been paid in full, the Corporation shall
not:

          (i)  declare or pay dividends on, make any other
distributions on, or redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for
consideration any shares of stock ranking junior (either as to
dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the
Series C Preferred Stock;

          (ii) declare or pay dividends on or make any other
distributions on any shares of stock ranking on a parity (either
as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up)
with the Series C Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably
on the Units and all such parity stock on which dividends are
payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which
the holders of all such Units and all such shares are then
entitled;

          (iii)  redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for
consideration shares of any stock ranking on a parity (either as
to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with
the Series C Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the
Corporation may at any time redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire
shares of any such parity stock in exchange for shares of any
stock of the Corporation ranking junior (either as to dividends
or upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up) to the Series C
Preferred Stock; or

          (iv) purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration
any Units, except in accordance with a purchase offer made in
writing or by publication (as determined by the Board of
Directors) to all holders of such Units, upon such terms as the
Board of Directors, after consideration of the respective annual
dividend rates and other relative rights and preferences of the
respective series and classes, shall determine in good faith will
result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective
series or classes.

       (2)  The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of
the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for
consideration any Units or shares of stock of the Corporation
unless the Corporation could, under paragraph (A) of this
Section, purchase or otherwise acquire such Units or shares at
such time and in such manner.

     (e)  Reacquired Units.
          ----------------

          Any Units purchased or otherwise acquired by the
Corporation in any manner whatsoever shall be retired and
cancelled promptly after the acquisition thereof.  All such Units
shall, upon their cancellation, become authorized but unissued
fractional shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued as part
of a new series of Preferred Stock to be created by resolution or
resolutions of the Board of Directors, subject to the conditions
and restrictions on issuance set forth herein.

     (f)  Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up.
          --------------------------------------

       (1)  Upon any voluntary liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company, no distribution shall be made (i) to
the holders of shares of stock ranking junior (either as to
dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the
Series C Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of
Units shall have received $1.00 per Unit, plus an amount equal to
accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon, whether
or not declared, to the date of such payment (the "Series C
<PAGE>
Liquidation Preference"), or (ii) to the holders of stock ranking
on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up) with the Series C Preferred Stock,
except distributions made ratably on the Series C Preferred Stock
and all other such parity stock in proportion to the total
amounts to which the holders of all such shares are entitled upon
such liquidation, dissolution or winding up.  Thereafter, the
holders of Units shall be entitled to receive an aggregate amount
per Unit, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set
forth, equal to the aggregate amount to be distributed per share
to the holders of Common Stock.  In the event the Company shall
at any time after the date hereof declare or pay any dividend on
the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a
subdivision or combination or consolidation or the outstanding
shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise) into a
greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each
such case the aggregate amount to which holders of Units were
entitled immediately prior to such event under the preceding
sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a
fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the
denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that
were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

       (2)  In the event, however, that there are not sufficient
assets available to permit payment in full of the Series C
Liquidation Preference and the liquidation preferences of all
other series of Preferred Stock, if any, which rank on a parity
with the Series C Preferred Stock, then such remaining assets
shall be distributed ratably to the holders of such parity shares
in proportion to their respective liquidation preferences.

     (g)  Consolidation, Merger, Etc.
          --------------------------
          In case the Company shall enter into any consolidation,
merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares of
Common Stock are exchanged for or converted into other stock or
securities, cash and/or any other property, then in any such case
the Units shall at the same time be similarly exchanged for or
converted into an amount per Unit (subject to the provision for
adjustment hereinafter set forth) equal to the aggregate amount
of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in
kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of
Common Stock is converted or exchanged.  In the event the Company
shall at any time (i) declare any dividend on Common Stock
payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide the outstanding
Common Stock or (iii) combine the outstanding Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, then in each such case the amount set
forth in the preceding sentence with respect to the exchange or
conversion of Units shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount
by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the
denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that
were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

     (h)  Redemption.
          -----------
          The Units shall not be redeemable by the Company;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the ability
of the Company to purchase or otherwise deal in such Units to the
extent otherwise permitted hereby and by law.

     (i)  Ranking.
          -------
          The Series C Preferred Stock shall rank junior to all
other series of the Company's Preferred Stock (whether with or
without par value) as to the payment of dividends and the
distribution of assets, unless the terms of any such series shall
provide otherwise.

     (j)  Amendment.
          --------
          Neither these Articles of Amendment nor the Articles of
Incorporation of the Company may be amended in any manner which
would materially alter or change the powers, preferences or
special rights of the Series C Preferred Stock so as to affect
them
<PAGE>
adversely without the affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority or more of the outstanding Units, voting separately as a
class.

     (k)  Fractional Shares.
          -----------------
          Series C Preferred Stock may be issued in Units or
other fractions of a share, which Units or fractions shall
entitle the holder, in proportion to such holder's Units or
fractional shares, to exercise voting rights, receive dividends,
participate in distributions and to have the benefit of all other
rights of holders of Series C Preferred Stock.
