INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Trustees
Butler Service Group, Inc.
401(k) Plan
Montvale, New Jersey
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the Butler Service Group, Inc. 401(k) Plan ("the Plan") as of December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in net assets available for benefits
for the year ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of (1) assets
held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1996 and (2) reportable
transactions for the year ended December 31, 1996 are presented for the purpose
of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements, but are supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These schedules are the responsibility
of the Plan's management. Such schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the basic 1996 financial statements and, in our opinion,
are fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis
of accounting and are presented in accordance with the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").
Certificates of deposit are stated at face value. US Government
obligations and equity investments are stated at fair value as determined by
quoted market prices. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a
trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends
are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
B. PLAN DESCRIPTION
The following description provides general information, refer to the
plan document for a more detailed description.
On July 1, 1990, Butler Service Group, Inc. ("the Company") established
a 401(K) Plan which was adopted by its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The 401(K)
Plan is a continuation of the Butler Service Group, Inc. Investment Savings Plan
and is designed to provide an incentive for employees of the Company to save
regularly through payroll deductions and possible matching contributions by the
Company. Effective January 1, 1992, all employees were eligible to participate
in the Butler Service Group, Inc. 401(K) Plan.
There are six investment funds offered under the 401(K) Plan - the
Fixed Income Fund, which invests in FDIC insured certificates of deposit and US
government obligations, the Small to Mid-Cap Equity Fund, which invests in a
diversified common stock portfolio of representative industries and
corporations, primarily small to mid-capitalization in size, the Mid to
Large-Cap Equity Fund, which invests in a diversified common stock portfolio of
growth companies, primarily large and medium capitalization, the Butler
International ("BI") Stock Fund which is a qualified employer security under
ERISA, the Balanced Fund, which invests 60 to 65% in equities and 35 to 40% in
government bonds and cash equivalents, and the International Fund which
generally invests in securities of foreign issuers located in Europe, the
Pacific Rim, Canada and Central and South America.
A participant in the 401(K) Plan has the choice of saving on a
before-tax basis, by payroll deduction, any amount from 1% to 20% (in whole
percentages) of total payroll each payroll period, an "elective deferral
contribution." By law, the elective deferral contribution, per participant,
under this Plan and all similar plans is limited during any calendar year. In
addition, the elective deferral contribution for a highly compensated employee
(an employee earning over $66,000 for 1996), during the year relative to the
elective deferral contributions of other participants of the Plan could exceed
the amount permitted by law. Should this occur, the elective deferral
contributions of the highly compensated employees may be reduced during the Plan
year to the extent necessary to satisfy the legal limitation or any excess
deferral contributions may be recharacterized or refunded after the end of the
Plan year.
A participant may allocate a specified percentage of the contribution
in any or all of the six funds in multiples of 10%.
The Company is not required to make any contributions to the Plan, but
the Company may decide, at its sole discretion, to make a matching contribution
for a Plan year. For any Plan year that the Company decides to make a matching
or partial contribution, it will deposit in the BI Stock Fund an amount which
will be allocated in proportion to the elective deferral contributions made by
the Plan participants for that Plan year. In 1996 the Company made a
contribution of $878,691 to the Plan in accordance with a customer contract,
which was funded by the customer.

<PAGE>
Each participant is permitted to change the elective deferral
contribution rate by completing the Change in Status Form and filing it with the
Plan's Administrative Committee. The elective deferral contribution rate is
adjusted after the Committee receives and processes the Change in Status Form.
A participant may fully discontinue the elective deferral contribution
as of the first day of any month by written notice to the Plan's Administrative
Committee at least fifteen days before the date on which the discontinuance is
to take effect. A discontinuance of the elective deferral contribution is only
permitted once during any Plan year and will automatically require the
discontinuance of any Company matching contributions to the Matching
Contribution Account. The elective deferral contribution may be resumed as of
any January, April, July, or October 1 by written notice to the Committee at
least fifteen days before a participant intends for the contributions to be
resumed.
Participants may withdraw funds while employed only from accounts in
which they are fully vested after attaining age 59 1/2. Prior to attaining age
59 1/2 a withdrawal may be made only for financial hardship. Only one withdrawal
may be requested during any Plan year for reasons other than financial hardship.
The minimum amount available for a withdrawal is $500. If the participant has an
outstanding loan, the amount of funds available for withdrawal may be limited.
Withdrawals may be made as of any January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1 from
any of the funds in which the participant's accounts are invested. A participant
will have a 100% vested interest in all accounts upon retirement at or after age
65, in the event of a permanent disability or in the event of death prior to
termination of employment. Upon termination of employment, the value of the
vested accounts will be paid in a lump sum. After completing three years of
service with the Company, a participant is entitled to the full value of the
Matching Contribution Account, if any.
Participants may borrow up to 50% of the vested portion of their
account balance, subject to a maximum of $50,000. Only one loan will be granted
at a time and must be repaid in full before another loan can be requested. The
minimum loan amount is $1,000. Loans are subject to an interest rate based on
the rate charged, as of the date the loan is granted, by the Company's principal
banking institution for loans granted under similar circumstances. Loans must be
repaid within such period as agreed to by the participant and the Plan's
administrative committee, up to a maximum of five years. However, if the loan is
made for the purchase or construction of the participants principal place of
residence, the repayment period may be longer than five years. Repayments will
normally be made through payroll deductions.
Although the Company has not expressed any intent to do so, in the
event the Plan is terminated, all participants will be 100% vested in all their
accounts and benefits will be payable strictly under the terms of the Plan.
Benefits under defined contribution plans of the 401(K) type are not insured by
the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation.

D. BENEFITS PAYABLE
The amounts payable to the Plan participants who have terminated or
withdrawn from the plan were $562,916 and $1,419,271 at December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively.
E. TAX STATUS
The Internal Revenue Service has determined that the Plan is a
qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Code with an associated trust exempt
from tax under Section 501(a). The most recent favorable letter of determination
on the qualified status of the Plan was issued by the Internal Revenue Service
("IRS") on April 22, 1996. The sponsor will, on a timely basis as prescribed by
IRS guidelines, request a determination letter from the IRS on the Plan's
continued qualified status. The Plan sponsor and the Plan's tax counsel believe
that the Plan as currently designed and operated is in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, there is no
provision for income taxes in the financial statements.
F. ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN ASSETS
Contributions are held and managed by PaineWebber, Inc. ("the
trustee"), which invests cash received, interest and dividend income and makes
distributions to participants. The trustee also administers the payment of
interest and principal on the participant loans.
Certain administrative functions are performed by officers or employees
of the Company. No such officer or employee receives compensation from the Plan.
Certain plan administration expenses are borne by the Plan.
