PROXY STATEMENT
The enclosed Proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of
Thermo Process Systems Inc. (the "Corporation") for use at the
1995 Annual Meeting of the Stockholders (the "Meeting") to be
held on Wednesday, December 13, 1995, at 5:00 p.m. at the
Sheraton Tara Lexington Inn, 73 Marrett Road, Lexington,
Massachusetts, and any adjournment thereof. The mailing address
of the executive office of the Corporation is 81 Wyman Street,
Waltham, Massachusetts 02254. This Proxy Statement and the
enclosed Proxy were first furnished to Stockholders of the
Corporation on or about November 9, 1995.
VOTING PROCEDURES
The Board of Directors intends to present to the Meeting the
election of six Directors, constituting the entire Board of
Directors, as well as two other matters: a proposal to amend the
Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation to change the
Corporation's name to "Thermo TerraTech Inc." and a proposal to
amend the Directors Stock Option Plan to change the formula for
the award of stock options to purchase common stock of the
Corporation to its outside Directors and also to provide for the
automatic grant to its outside Directors of stock options to
purchase common stock of the Corporation's majority-owned
subsidiaries created from time to time.
The representation in person or by proxy of a majority of
the outstanding shares of common stock of the Corporation, $.10
par value ("Common Stock"), entitled to vote at the Meeting is
necessary to provide a quorum for the transaction of business at
the Meeting. Shares can only be voted if the Stockholder is
present in person or is represented by returning a properly
signed proxy. Each Stockholder's vote is very important. Whether
or not you plan to attend the Meeting in person, please sign and
promptly return the enclosed proxy card, which requires no
postage if mailed in the United States. All signed and returned
proxies will be counted towards establishing a quorum for the
Meeting, regardless of how the shares are voted.
Shares represented by proxy will be voted in accordance with
your instructions. You may specify your choice by marking the
appropriate box on the proxy card. If your proxy card is signed
and returned without specifying choices, your shares will be
voted for the management nominees for Directors, for the
management proposal, and as the individuals named as proxy
holders on the proxy deem advisable on all other matters as may
properly come before the Meeting.
In order to be elected a Director, a nominee must receive
the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock
present and entitled to vote on the election. For all other
matters to be voted upon at the Meeting the affirmative vote of a
majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy, and
2
PAGE
<PAGE>
entitled to vote on the matter, is necessary for approval.
Withholding authority to vote for a nominee for Director or an
instruction to abstain from voting on a proposal will be treated
as shares present and entitled to vote and, for purposes of
determining the outcome of the vote, will have the same effect as
a vote against the nominee or a proposal. A broker "non-vote"
occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial holder does
not have discretionary voting power and does not receive voting
instructions from the beneficial owner. Broker "non-votes" will
not be treated as shares present and entitled to vote on a voting
matter and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote.
A Stockholder who returns a proxy may revoke it at any time
before the Stockholder's shares are voted at the Meeting by
written notice to the Secretary of the Corporation received prior
to the Meeting, by executing and returning a later-dated proxy or
by voting by ballot at the Meeting.

Committees of the Board of Directors and Meetings

Compensation of Directors
Directors who are not employees of the Corporation, of
Thermo Electron or of any other companies affiliated with Thermo
Electron (also referred to as "outside directors"), receive an
annual retainer of $4,000 and a fee of $1,000 per day for
attending regular meetings of the Board of Directors and $500 per
day for participating in meetings of the Board of Directors held
by means of conference telephone and for participating in certain
meetings of committees of the Board of Directors. Directors are

such meetings. Payment of Directors' fees is made quarterly.
Dr. Appleton, Mr. J. Hatsopoulos and Mr. Rainville are all
employees of Thermo Electron and do not receive any cash
compensation from the Corporation for their services as

<PAGE>
Under the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors (the
"Deferred Compensation Plan"), a Director has the right to defer
receipt of his cash fees until he ceases to serve as a Director,
dies or retires from his principal occupation. In the event of a
change in control or proposed change in control of the
Corporation that is not approved by the Board of Directors,
deferred amounts become payable immediately. Either of the
following is deemed to be a change of control: (a) the
occurrence, without the prior approval of the Board of Directors,
of the acquisition, directly or indirectly, by any person of 50%
or more of the outstanding Common Stock or the outstanding common
stock of Thermo Electron; or (b) the failure of the persons
serving on the Board of Directors immediately prior to any
contested election of Directors or any exchange offer or tender
offer for the Common Stock or the common stock of Thermo Electron
to constitute a majority of the Board of Directors at any time
within two years following any such event. Amounts deferred
pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan are valued on the date
of deferral as units of the Corporation's Common Stock. When
payable, amounts deferred may be disbursed solely in shares of
Common Stock accumulated under the Deferred Compensation Plan. A
total of 54,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for
issuance under the Deferred Compensation Plan. As of July 1,
1995, deferred units equal to 31,838 full shares of Common Stock
were accumulated under the Deferred Compensation Plan.
The Corporation's directors stock option plan (the
"Directors Plan") provides for the grant of stock options to
purchase shares of Common Stock to outside Directors as
additional compensation for their service as Directors. In
February 1995, the Board of Directors approved amendments to the
Directors Plan that are subject to Stockholder approval at this
Meeting. The amendments are described under Proposal 3 to this
Proxy Statement. Prior to the amendment of the Directors Plan,
eligible Directors were automatically granted 1,000 shares
annually upon the close of business on the date of the
Corporation's Annual Meeting of Stockholders and were also
granted options to purchase Common Stock on a quarterly basis
according to the following formula: 200 shares for each meeting
of the Board of Directors held during the quarter and attended in
person by the recipient and 100 shares for each telephone meeting
or committee meeting of the Board of Directors held during the
quarter in which the recipient participated. The amendments to
the plan would retain the annual award of 1,000 options (although
the terms of the award would be modified), but would eliminate
the quarterly award of stock options based on meeting attendance.
In addition, the Directors Plan would also provide for the
automatic grant every five years of options to purchase 1,500
shares of the common stock of any majority-owned subsidiary of
the Corporation that is "spunout" to outside investors, including
a grant of an option to purchase 1,500 shares of Thermo
Remediation upon the close of business on the date of this
Meeting.

<PAGE>
The exercise price for options that have been granted to
date under the Directors Plan is determined by the average of the
closing prices of the Common Stock as reported on the American
Stock Exchange for the five trading days preceding and including
the date of grant. Outstanding options are exercisable six months
after the date of grant and, if granted prior to 1995, generally
expire seven years from the date of grant. An aggregate of
75,000 shares of Common Stock has been reserved for issuance
under the Directors Plan. As of July 1, 1995, options to purchase
16,700 shares of Common Stock were outstanding under the
Directors Plan at an average exercise price of $8.44 per share,
no shares of Common Stock had been issued pursuant to the
exercise of options and no options to purchase shares of Common
Stock had lapsed. Options to purchase 58,300 shares of Common
Stock were reserved and available for grant under the Directors
Plan as of July 1, 1995.

The following table sets forth the beneficial ownership of
Common Stock, as well as the common stock of Thermo Electron and
Thermo Remediation, as of July 1, 1995, with respect to (i) each

Disclosure of Certain Late Filings
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
requires the Corporation's Directors and executive officers, and
beneficial owners of more than 10% of the Common Stock, such as
Thermo Electron, to file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission initial reports of ownership and periodic reports of
changes in ownership of the Corporation's securities. Based upon
a review of such filings, all Section 16(a) filing requirements
applicable to such persons were complied with during fiscal 1995,
except in the following instances. The initial report of
ownership for one of the Corporation's executive officers, Mr.
Bruce J. Taunt, failed to include 20.2 shares of Common Stock
allocated to his account under the Thermo Electron ESOP, and
failed to include 160 shares of Common Stock beneficially held by
trust. These deficiencies were corrected in an amendment to his
Form 3 on January 25, 1995, except for the trust holdings which
were reported on his Form 5 filed in May 1995. In addition, the
fiscal 1994 Form 5 filed on behalf of Mr. John N. Hatsopoulos, a
Director and the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation,
failed to report three gifts of shares of Common Stock
aggregating 4,000 shares. The gifts were reported in an
amendment to Mr. Hatsopoulos' Form 5 filed on October 12, 1994.
Thermo Electron reported purchases of the Corporation's 6-1/2%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures late on two occasions. It
reported the purchase in March 1994 of $1,150,000 principal
amount of such debentures in May 1994 on its Form 5 and another
purchase in March 1995 of $365,000 principal amount of such
debentures in an amendment filed seven days late. In addition,
in converting Form 4 records of the Corporation from a manual
system to a computer database, it was discovered that Thermo
Electron failed to report the sale in August 1992 of $250,000
principal amount of the Corporation's 6-1/2% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures. The sale was reported on the Form 5
filed by Thermo Electron in May 1995.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The following table summarizes compensation for services to
the Corporation in all capacities awarded to, earned by or paid

Commission's executive compensation disclosure rules for such

The Corporation is required to appoint certain executive
officers and full-time employees of Thermo Electron as executive

table as TMO) and Thermo Remediation (designated in the table as
THN). The shares of common stock of Thermo Electron and Thermo
Remediation shown in the table reflect a three-for-two split of
each such stock effected on May 24, 1995 and March 31, 1995,
respectively. Dr. Appleton has served as an officer of Thermo
Electron since 1975 and has been granted options to purchase
shares of the common stock of Thermo Electron and certain of its
subsidiaries other than the Corporation from time to time by
Thermo Electron or such other subsidiaries. These options are
not reported in this table as they were granted as compensation
for service to other Thermo Electron companies in capacities
other than in his capacity as the president and chief executive
officer of the Corporation.
(2) Represents the amount of matching contributions made on
behalf of the executive officers participating in Thermo
Electron's 401(k) plan.
(3) Dr. Appleton was appointed president and chief executive
officer of the Corporation effective September 1, 1993. Dr.
Appleton is also a vice president of Thermo Electron. Reported
in the table under "Annual Compensation" are the total amounts
paid to Dr. Appleton for his service in all capacities to Thermo
Electron companies since September 1, 1993. The Human Resources
Committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation reviews
total annual cash compensation to be paid to Dr. Appleton from
all sources within the Thermo Electron organization and approves
the allocation of a percentage of annual cash compensation
(salary and bonus) for the time he devotes to the affairs of the
Corporation. For fiscal 1995 and 1994, 85% and 100%,
respectively, of Dr. Appleton's reported cash compensation was
allocated to the Corporation. These percentages include the
allocation of a portion of Dr. Appleton's annual cash
compensation attributable to the management of the Thermo Terra
Tech joint venture, which was acquired by the Corporation in
April 1995 in a transaction accounted for in a manner similar to
pooling of interests accounting. Bonuses paid to Dr. Appleton
reflect compensation decisions based on calendar year
performance, in accordance with Thermo Electron's compensation
practices for its officers.
(4) In fiscal 1994, the Corporation changed its compensation
practices for executive officers (other than the chief executive
officer who continues to be reviewed on a calendar year
performance) to make compensation decisions based on fiscal year
performance rather than calendar year performance. As a
consequence, the bonus paid to Mr. Powell in fiscal 1994 related
to a 15-month period from January 3, 1993 through April 2, 1994.
(5) Mr. Taunt was appointed an executive officer of the
Corporation on November 1, 1994.

(1) In addition to the grant of options to purchase Common Stock
of the Corporation (designated in the table as TPI), options have
been granted during fiscal 1995 to the named executive officers
to purchase the common stock of Thermo Electron (designated in
the table as TMO) and Thermo Remediation (designated in the table
as THN). All of the options granted during the fiscal year are
immediately exercisable at the date of grant. However, the shares
acquired upon exercise are subject to repurchase by the granting
corporation at the exercise price if the optionee ceases to be
employed by the granting corporation or another Thermo Electron
company. The granting corporation may exercise its repurchase
rights within six months after the termination of the optionee's
employment. The repurchase rights lapse ratably over a five- to
ten-year period, depending on the option term, which may vary
from seven to twelve years, provided that the optionee continues
to be employed by the Corporation or another Thermo Electron
17

company. The granting corporation may permit the holders of such
options to exercise options and to satisfy tax withholding
obligations by surrendering shares equal in fair market value to
the exercise price or withholding obligation. The shares of
common stock of Thermo Electron and Thermo Remediation shown in
the table reflect a three-for-two split of each such stock
effected on May 24, 1995 and March 31, 1995, respectively.
(2) These options were granted under stock option plans
maintained by Thermo Electron and accordingly are reported as a
percentage of total options granted to employees of Thermo
Electron and its subsidiaries.
(3) Options to purchase 15,000 shares of the common stock of
Thermo Electron granted to Mr. Powell are subject to the same
terms as described in footnote (1), except that the repurchase
rights of the granting corporation generally do not lapse until
the tenth anniversary of the grant date. In the event of the
employee's death or involuntary termination prior to the tenth
anniversary of the grant date, the repurchase rights of the
granting corporation shall be deemed to have lapsed ratably over
a five-year period commencing with the fifth anniversary of the
grant date.

options to purchase 15,000 shares each are subject to the
following terms in addition to those described in footnote (1):
In the event of the optionee's voluntary resignation or discharge
for cause prior to February 8, 1998, all of the shares acquired
upon exercise of these options are subject to repurchase by the
Corporation at the exercise price. In addition, all shares
19

acquired upon the exercise of these options are subject to
restrictions on resale until February 8, 1998.
(5) Options to purchase 15,000 shares of the common stock of
Thermo Electron granted to Mr. Powell are subject to the same
terms as described in footnote (1), except that the repurchase
rights of the granting corporation generally do not lapse until
the tenth anniversary of the grant date. In the event of the
employee's death or involuntary termination prior to the tenth
anniversary of the grant date, the repurchase rights of the
granting corporation shall be deemed to have lapsed ratably over
a five-year period commencing with the fifth anniversary of the
grant date.
SEVERANCE and Other AGREEMENTS
Thermo Electron has entered into severance agreements with
several key employees, including Dr. Appleton. These agreements
provide severance benefits if there is a change of control of
Thermo Electron that is not approved by the Board of Directors of
Thermo Electron and the employee's employment with Thermo
Electron or one of its majority-owned subsidiaries is terminated,
for whatever reason, within one year thereafter. For purposes of
the agreements, a change of control exists upon (i) the
acquisition of 50% or more of the outstanding common stock of
Thermo Electron by any person without the prior approval of the
board of directors of Thermo Electron, (ii) the failure of the
board of directors of Thermo Electron, within two years after any
contested election of directors or tender or exchange offer not
approved by the board of directors, to be constituted of a
majority of directors holding office prior to such event or (iii)
any other event that the board of directors of Thermo Electron
determines constitutes an effective change of control of Thermo
Electron. The benefit under these agreements is stated as an
initial percentage which was established by the Board of
Directors of Thermo Electron and was generally based upon the
employee's age and length of service with Thermo Electron at the
time of severance. Benefits are to be paid over a five-year
period. The benefit to be paid in the first year is determined
by applying this percentage to the employee's highest annual
total remuneration in any 12-month period during the preceding
three years. This benefit is reduced by 10% in each of the
succeeding four years in which benefits are paid. The initial
percentage to be so applied to Dr. Appleton is 40.1%. Assuming
severance benefits would have been payable under such agreements
as of July 1, 1995, Dr. Appleton would have received
approximately $100,000 in the first year thereof from Thermo
Electron.
COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
20
PAGE
<PAGE>
All decisions on compensation for the Corporation's
executive officers are made by the Human Resources Committee of
the Board of Directors (the "Committee"). In reviewing and
establishing total cash compensation and stock-based compensation
for executives, the Committee follows guidelines established by
the human resources committee of the board of directors of its
parent corporation, Thermo Electron. The executive compensation
program presently consists of annual base salary ("salary"),
short-term incentives in the form of annual cash bonuses, and
long-term incentives in the form of stock options.
The Committee believes that the compensation of executive
officers should reflect the scope of their responsibilities, the
success of the Corporation, and the contributions of each
executive to that success. In addition, the Committee believes
that base salaries should approximate the mid-point of
competitive salaries derived from market surveys and that
short-term and long-term incentive compensation should reflect
the performance of the Corporation and the contributions of each
executive.
External competitiveness is an important element of the
Committee's compensation policy. The competitiveness of the
Corporation's compensation for its executives is assessed by
comparing it to market data provided by its compensation
consultant and by participating in annual executive compensation
surveys, primarily "Project 777", an executive compensation
survey prepared by Management Compensation Services, a division
of Hewitt Associates. The majority of firms represented in the
Project 777 survey are included in the Standard & Poor's Index,
but do not necessarily correspond to the companies included in
the Corporation's peer group index.
Principles of internal equity are also central to the
Committee's compensation policies. Compensation considered for
the Corporation's officers, whether cash or stock-based
incentives, is also evaluated by comparing it to compensation of
other executives within the Thermo Electron organization with
comparable levels of responsibility for comparably sized business
units.
The process for determining each of these elements for the
Corporation's executive officers is outlined below.
Base Salary
Base salaries are intended to approximate the mid-point of
competitive salaries for similar organizations of comparable size
and complexity to the Corporation. Executive salaries are
adjusted gradually over time and only as necessary to meet this
objective. Increases in base salary may be moderated by other
considerations, such as geographic or regional market data,
industry trends or internal fairness within the Corporation and
Thermo Electron. It is the Committee's intention that over time
the base salaries for the chief executive officer and its other
21
PAGE
<PAGE>
named executive officers will approach the mid-point of
competitive data. The salary increases in fiscal 1995 for the
chief executive officer and the other named executive officers
generally reflect this practice of gradual increases and
moderation.
CASH BONUS
The Committee establishes a median potential bonus for each
executive by using the market data on total cash compensation
from the same executive compensation surveys as used to determine
salaries. Specifically, the median potential bonus plus the
salary of an executive officer is approximately equal to the
mid-point of competitive total cash compensation for a similar
position and level of responsibility in businesses having
comparable sales and complexity to the Corporation. The actual
bonus awarded to an executive officer may range from minus one to
three times the median potential bonus. The value within the
range (the bonus multiplier) is determined at the end of each
year by the Committee in its discretion. The Committee exercises
its discretion by evaluating each executive's performance using a
methodology developed by its parent corporation, Thermo Electron,
and applied throughout the Thermo Electron organization. The
methodology incorporates measures of operating returns, designed
to measure profitability, contributions to shareholder value, and
earnings growth, and are measures of corporate and divisional
performance that are evaluated using graphs developed by Thermo
Electron designed to reward performance that is perceived as
above average and to penalize performance that is perceived as
below average. The measures of operating returns used in the
Committee's determinations in fiscal 1995 measured return on net
assets, growth in income, and growth in earnings per share and
the Committee's determinations also included an evaluation of the
contributions of each executive that are not captured by
operating measures but are considered important to the creation
of long-term value for the stockholders. These measures of
achievements are not financial targets that are met, not met or
exceeded. The relative importance of these factors varies
depending on the executive's role and responsibilities within the
organization.
The bonuses for named executive officers approved by the
Committee with respect to fiscal 1995 performance in each
instance exceeded the median potential bonus.
STOCK OPTION PROGRAM
The primary goal of the Corporation is to excel in the
creation of long-term value for the Stockholders. The principal
incentive tool used to achieve this goal is the periodic award to
key employees of options to purchase common stock of the
Corporation and other Thermo Electron companies.
The Committee and management believe that awards of stock
options to purchase the shares of both the Corporation and other
22
PAGE
<PAGE>
companies within the Thermo Electron group of companies
accomplish many objectives. The grant of options to key employees
encourages equity ownership in the Corporation, and closely
aligns management's interests to the interests of all the
Stockholders. The emphasis on stock options also results in
management's compensation being closely linked to stock
performance. In addition, because they are subject to vesting
periods of varying durations and to forfeiture if the employee
leaves the Corporation prematurely, stock options are an
incentive for key employees to remain with the Corporation
long-term. The Committee believes stock option awards in its
subsidiary, Thermo Remediation and its parent corporation, Thermo
Electron, and the other majority-owned subsidiaries of Thermo
Electron, are an important tool in providing incentives for
performance within the entire organization.
In determining awards, the Committee considers the average
annual value of all options to purchase shares of the Corporation
and other companies within the Thermo Electron organization that
vest in the next five years. (Values are established using a
modified Black-Scholes option pricing model.) As a guideline,
the Committee strives to maintain the aggregate amount of awards
to all employees over a five-year period below 10% of the
Corporation's outstanding common stock, although other factors
such as unusual transactions and acquisitions and standards for
awards of comparably situated companies may affect the number of
awards granted.
Awards are not made annually in conjunction with the annual
review of cash compensation, but are made periodically. The
Committee considers total compensation of executives, actual and
anticipated contributions of each executive (which includes a
subjective assessment by the Committee of the value of the
executive's future potential within the organization), as well as
the value of previously awarded options as described above, in
determining option awards. The option awards made with respect
to the common stock of the Corporation's parent, Thermo Electron,
and its subsidiary, Thermo Remediation, were determined by the
human resources committee of the board of directors of each such
company using a similar analysis.
Policy on Deductibility of Compensation
The Committee has also considered the application of Section
162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code to the Corporation's
compensation practices. Section 162(m) limits the tax deduction
available to public companies for annual compensation paid to
senior executive in excess of $1 million, unless the compensation
qualifies as "performance based". The annual cash compensation
paid to individual executives does not approach the $1 million
threshold, and it is believed that the stock incentive plans of
the Corporation qualify as "performance based". Therefore, the
Committee does not believe any further action is necessary in
order to comply with Section 162(m). From time to time, the
23
PAGE
<PAGE>
Committee will reexamine the Corporation's compensation practices
and the effect of Section 162(m).
CEO COMPENSATION
Cash compensation for Dr. Appleton is reviewed by both the
Committee and the human resources committee of the board of
directors of Thermo Electron (the "Thermo Electron Committee"),
due to his responsibilities as both the Corporation's chief
executive officer and as a vice president of Thermo Electron.
Each committee evaluates Dr. Appleton's performance and proposed
compensation using a process similar to that used for the other
executive officers of the Corporation. At the Thermo Electron
level, Dr. Appleton is evaluated on his performance related to
the Corporation as well as other operating units of Thermo
Electron for which he is responsible, weighted in accordance with
the amount of time and effort devoted to each operation. The
Corporation's Committee then reviews the analysis and
determinations of the Thermo Electron committee, makes an
independent assessment of Dr. Appleton's performance as it
relates to the Corporation using criteria similar to that used
for the other executive officers of the Corporation, and then
agrees to an appropriate allocation of Dr. Appleton's
compensation to be paid by the Corporation.
In December 1994, the Committee conducted its review of Dr.
Appleton's proposed salary for calendar 1995 and bonus for
calendar 1995 performance. The Committee concurred in the
recommendations made by the Thermo Electron Committee and agreed
to an allocation of 70% of Dr. Appleton's total cash compensation
for calendar year 1994 and 1995 to the Corporation, based on his
relative responsibilities at the Corporation (including
management of the former Thermo Terra Tech joint venture - see
"Relationship With Affiliates") and Thermo Electron. Because Dr.
Appleton's bonus for calendar 1994 performance is paid in
calendar 1995, 70% of such bonus has been allocated to the
Corporation. The Committee believes that the total cash
compensation for Dr. Appleton for calendar 1994 tends to be below
the competitive norm for a similarly sized company with
performance comparable to that of the Corporation, and prefers
that a significant portion of total compensation be awarded in
the form of long-term incentive compensation, such as stock
options.

RELATIONSHIP WITH AFFILIATES
Thermo Electron has adopted a strategy of selling a minority
interest in subsidiary companies to outside investors as an
important tool in its future development. As part of this
strategy, the Corporation has created Thermo Remediation as a
majority-owned publicly held subsidiary. From time to time,
Thermo Electron and its subsidiaries will create other
majority-owned subsidiaries as part of its spinout strategy.
(The Corporation and the other Thermo Electron subsidiaries are
hereinafter referred to as the "Thermo Subsidiaries".)
Thermo Electron and each of the Thermo Subsidiaries
recognize that the benefits and support that derive from their
affiliation are essential elements of their individual
performance. Accordingly, Thermo Electron and each of the Thermo
Subsidiaries have adopted the Thermo Electron Corporate Charter
(the "Charter") to define the relationships and delineate the
nature of such cooperation among themselves. The purpose of the
Charter is to ensure that (1) all of the companies and their
stockholders are treated consistently and fairly, (2) the scope
and nature of the cooperation among the companies, and each
company's responsibilities, are adequately defined, (3) each
company has access to the combined resources and financial,
managerial and technological strengths of the others, and (4)
Thermo Electron and the Thermo Subsidiaries, in the aggregate,
are able to obtain the most favorable terms from outside parties.
To achieve these ends, the Charter identifies the general
principles to be followed by the companies, addresses the role
and responsibilities of the management of each company, provides
for the sharing of group resources by the companies and provides
for centralized administrative, banking and credit services to be
performed by Thermo Electron. The services provided by Thermo
Electron include collecting and managing cash generated by
members, coordinating the access of Thermo Electron and the
Thermo Subsidiaries (the "Thermo Group") to external financing
sources, ensuring compliance with external financial covenants
and internal financial policies, assisting in the formulation of
long-range financial planning and providing other banking and
credit services. Pursuant to the Charter, Thermo Electron may
also provide guarantees of debt or other obligations of the
Thermo Subsidiaries or may obtain external financing at the
parent level for the benefit of the Thermo Subsidiaries. In
certain instances, the Thermo Subsidiaries may provide credit
support to, or on behalf of, the consolidated entity or may
obtain financing directly from external financing sources. Under
the Charter, Thermo Electron is responsible for determining that
the Thermo Group remains in compliance with all covenants imposed
by external financing sources, including covenants related to
borrowings of Thermo Electron or other members of the Thermo
Group, and for apportioning such constraints within the Thermo
Group. In addition, Thermo Electron is also responsible for
establishing internal policies and procedures. The cost of the
services provided by Thermo Electron to the Thermo Subsidiaries
28
PAGE
<PAGE>
is covered under existing corporate services agreements between
Thermo Electron and each of the Thermo Subsidiaries.
The Charter presently provides that it shall continue in
effect so long as Thermo Electron and at least one Thermo
Subsidiary participate. The Charter may be amended at any time by
agreement of the participants. Any Thermo Subsidiary, including
the Corporation, can withdraw from participation in the Charter
upon 30 days' prior notice. A subsidiary's participation in the
Charter will terminate in the event the subsidiary ceases to be
controlled by Thermo Electron or ceases to comply with the
Charter or the policies and procedures applicable to the Thermo
Group. A withdrawal from the Charter automatically terminates the
corporate services agreement and tax allocation agreement (if
any) in effect between the withdrawing company and Thermo
Electron. The withdrawal from participation does not terminate
outstanding commitments to third parties made by the withdrawing
company, or by Thermo Electron or other members of the Thermo
Group, prior to the withdrawal. However, a withdrawing company is
required to continue to comply with all policies and procedures
applicable to the Thermo Group and to provide certain
administrative functions mandated by Thermo Electron so long as
the withdrawing company is controlled by or affiliated with
Thermo Electron.
As provided in the Charter, the Corporation and Thermo
Electron have entered into a Corporate Services Agreement (the
"Services Agreement") under which Thermo Electron's corporate
staff provides certain administrative services, including certain
legal advice and services, risk management, certain employee
benefit administration, tax advice and preparation of tax
returns, centralized cash management and certain financial and
other services to the Corporation. Prior to January 1, 1995,
the Corporation was assessed an annual fee equal to 1.25% of the
Corporation's revenues for these services. Effective January 1,
1995, the fee has been reduced to 1.2% of the Corporation's
revenues. The fee is reviewed annually and may be changed by
mutual agreement of the Corporation and Thermo Electron. During
fiscal 1995, Thermo Electron assessed the Corporation $1,653,000
in fees under the Services Agreement. Management believes that
the charges under the Services Agreement are reasonable and that
the terms of the Services Agreement are representative of the
expenses the Corporation would have incurred on a stand-alone
basis. For items such as employee benefit plans, insurance
coverage and other identifiable costs, Thermo Electron charges
the Corporation based on charges attributable to the Corporation.
The Services Agreement automatically renews for successive
one-year terms, unless canceled by the Corporation upon 30 days'
prior notice. In addition, the Services Agreement terminates
automatically in the event the Corporation ceases to be a member
of the Thermo Group or ceases to be a participant in the Charter.
In the event of a termination of the Services Agreement, the
Corporation will be required to pay a termination fee equal to
the fee that was paid by the Corporation for services under the
Services Agreement for the nine-month period prior to
29
PAGE
<PAGE>
termination. Following termination, Thermo Electron may provide
certain administrative services on an as-requested basis by the
Corporation or as required in order to meet the Corporation's
obligations under Thermo Electron's policies and procedures.
Thermo Electron will charge the Corporation a fee equal to the
market rate for comparable services if such services are provided
to the Corporation following termination.
From time to time, the Corporation may transact business
in the ordinary course with other companies in the Thermo Group.
All such transactions are on terms comparable to those the
Corporation would receive from unaffiliated parties.
As of April 1, 1995, $30,802,000 of the Corporation's cash
equivalents were invested in a repurchase agreement with Thermo
Electron. Under this agreement, the Corporation in effect lends
excess cash to Thermo Electron, which Thermo Electron
collateralizes with investments principally consisting of
corporate notes, U.S. government agency securities, money market
funds, commercial paper and other marketable securities, in the
amount of at least 103% of such obligation. The Corporation's
funds subject to the repurchase agreement are readily convertible
into cash by the Corporation and have a maturity of three months
or less. The repurchase agreement earns a rate based on the
Commercial Paper Composite Rate plus 25 basis points, set at the
beginning of each quarter.
The Corporation leases or subleases two office and
manufacturing facilities from Thermo Electron. The total rental
payments made to Thermo Electron during fiscal year 1995 under
these agreements was $537,000.
The Corporation and Thermo Electron entered into a
development agreement under which Thermo Electron agreed to fund
up to $4,000,000 of the direct and indirect costs of the
Corporation's development of soil-remediation centers. In
exchange for this funding, the Corporation granted Thermo
Electron a royalty equal to approximately 3% of net revenues from
soil-remediation services performed at the centers developed
under this agreement. The royalty payments may cease if the
amounts paid by the Corporation yield a certain internal rate of
return to Thermo Electron on the funds advanced to the
Corporation under this agreement. The Corporation paid Thermo
Electron royalties of $432,000 in fiscal 1995.
In February 1995, the Corporation acquired all of the
outstanding capital stock of Engineering, Technology and
Knowledge Corporation and its subsidiary, Elson T. Killam
Associate Inc. ("Killam") from Nord Est S.A., a French industrial
company, for $12,566,000 in cash and a zero coupon promissory
note with a then-present value of $22,300,000. In a related
transaction, certain members of Killam's senior management
exchanged options to purchase Killam's common stock for options
to purchase the Corporation's Common Stock and canceled other
options in exchange for cash payments in the aggregate amount of
30

<PAGE>
$1,922,000. The Corporation borrowed the cash portion of the
purchase price, including cash used to collateralize the
promissory note delivered to Nord Est S.A., from Thermo Electron
through the issuance of a $38,000,000 promissory note that bears
interest at the Commercial Paper Composite Rate as announced from
time to time by Merrill Lynch Capital Markets plus 25 basis
points and is due June 1, 1997. As of April 1, 1995, the
Corporation owed Thermo Electron an aggregate of $56,116,000.
Effective April 2, 1995, the Corporation agreed to dissolve
the Thermo Terra Tech joint venture with Thermo Instrument
Systems Inc. ("THI"), another subsidiary of Thermo Electron, and
to purchase the businesses originally contributed to the joint
venture by THI and formerly operated by the joint venture from
THI for $34,267,000 in cash. The purchase price was based on the
Corporation's determination (as approved by its Board of
Directors) of the fair market value of the businesses, and the
terms of the agreement for the purchase were determined by arms'
length negotiation among the parties. As a result of this
transaction, the Corporation increased its ownership in the
businesses operated by the joint venture from 51% to 100%. The
Corporation borrowed the purchase price from Thermo Electron
through the issuance of a $35,000,000 promissory note that bears
interest at the Commercial Paper Composite Rate as announced from
time to time by Merrill Lynch Capital Markets plus 25 basis
points and is due May 13, 1997.
Thermo Electron owned approximately 80.85% of the
Corporation's outstanding Common Stock on July 1, 1995.
- PROPOSAL 2 -
PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THE CORPORATION
The Corporation's Board of Directors has proposed an
amendment to the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation to
change the name of the Corporation to "Thermo TerraTech Inc." and
has recommended that the Stockholders approve the amendment. The
Board of Directors has recommended this change in the
Corporation's name to more accurately reflect the Corporation's
transition in its principal business from industrial furnace
equipment to environmental infrastructure services. If the name
change is approved by the Stockholders, (i) the Stockholders will
not be required to surrender their stock certificates for new
certificates reflecting the new name of the Corporation, and (ii)
the Corporation's ticker symbol on the American Stock Exchange
will be changed to "TTT".
Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation
31
PAGE
<PAGE>
It is proposed that the name change be effected by amending
Article First of the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation
to read as follows:
"The name by which the corporation shall be known is Thermo
TerraTech Inc."
Recommendation
The Board of Directors believes that the name change to
Thermo TerraTech Inc. is in the best interests of the Corporation
and its Stockholders and recommends that the Stockholders vote
FOR adoption of the proposed name change. If not otherwise
specified, proxies will be voted FOR approval of this proposal.
Thermo Electron, which beneficially owned approximately 80.6% of
the outstanding Common Stock as of October 26, 1995, has
sufficient votes to approve the proposed name change and has
indicated its intention to vote for the proposal.

- PROPOSAL 3 -
PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE DIRECTORS STOCK OPTION PLAN
The Board of Directors has approved amendments to the
Corporation's Directors Stock Option Plan (the "Directors Plan")
that would change the formula for granting stock options to
purchase Common Stock of the Corporation to its outside Directors
and would also provide for the automatic grant of stock options
to purchase common stock of majority-owned subsidiaries of the
Corporation created from time to time to its outside Directors,
subject to Stockholder approval at this Meeting.
In December 1994, as part of a review of director
compensation, the Board of Directors adopted amendments to the
Directors Plan, subject to Stockholder approval. The amendments
would first change the formula by which stock options to purchase
Common Stock are automatically granted to outside Directors. The
formula, as amended, would eliminate the meeting attendance
grants previously awarded quarterly to outside Directors under
the Directors Plan, and also provide for the automatic grant to
its outside Directors of stock options to purchase 1,500 shares
of common stock of majority-owned subsidiaries of the Corporation
spunout from time to time. Directors would continue to receive
an annual grant of options to purchase 1,000 shares of the Common
Stock.
The review of director compensation was conducted in
conjunction with an overall review of director compensation for
Thermo Electron and its majority-owned subsidiaries. The purpose
of the review was to evaluate compensation practices for the
entire Thermo Electron family of companies, compare total cash
compensation to comparable market data and ensure consistent and
internally equitable compensation practices among the companies
within the Thermo Electron family. In connection with the
revision of the option program for Directors, it was also agreed
to discontinue the quarterly determination and award of stock
options based on attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors
and its committees, effective as of January 1, 1995. In addition,
the Directors approved the award of a fixed number of stock
options in majority-owned subsidiaries that may be spunout from
time to time as part of the corporate spinout strategy of the
Corporation and Thermo Electron.
The spinout of business units represents an integral part of
the Corporation's strategy, and the Corporation believes it is
desirable and in the best interests of the Corporation and its
Stockholders that the outside Directors of the Corporation have a
personal equity interest in potential future spinout companies of
the Corporation and its existing majority owned subsidiary,
Thermo Remediation. The Board of Directors believes that the
award of stock options to key personnel and Directors in its
spinout companies created from time to time serves to motivate
individuals to contribute significantly to the Corporation's
33
PAGE
<PAGE>
future growth and success and to align the long-term interest of
these individuals to those of all the Stockholders of the
Corporation. Consistent with its incentive structure for its key
employees and executives of the Corporation, it is recommended
that provision be made for the award of stock options to outside
Directors in potential future spinout companies by amending the
Directors Plan.
Summary of the Amendments to the Directors Plan
The full text of the Directors Plan as amended and restated
is set forth in Appendix A, to which reference is made. A brief
description of the amendments to the Directors Plan follows (the
"Amendments"), but is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the full text of the plan. Except as amended, the Directors Plan
will continue in full force and effect. A brief description of
the material terms of the Directors Plan that are not affected by
the Amendments are summarized under the heading "Other Terms of
the Directors Plan." The closing price of the Common Stock on
October 26, 1995, was $11.375 per share.
Initial Grant of Corporation Options
New Directors presently are automatically awarded options to
purchase 40,000 shares of Common Stock upon their appointment or
election. The Amendments would reduce this amount to 16,000
shares for new Directors appointed in 1995, and further reduce
the size of the grant to new Directors by 8,000 shares each year
thereafter until 1997, when the initial grant would be eliminated
entirely. Options may be exercised at any time from and after
the six-month anniversary of the grant date of the option and
prior to the expiration of the option on the fifth anniversary of
the grant date (rather than the seventh anniversary as is
currently the case). Options will be subject to restrictions on
resale and to the repurchase by the Corporation of the shares
subject to option at the exercise price if the Director ceases to
serve as a Director of the Corporation, Thermo Electron or any
subsidiary of Thermo Electron, for any reason other than death.
The restriction and repurchase rights shall lapse in equal
installments of 8,000 shares starting with the first anniversary
of the grant date, provided the Director has continuously served
as a Director of the Corporation, Thermo Electron or any
subsidiary of Thermo Electron since the grant date. The option
exercise price shall be determined by the average closing price
of the Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange for the five
trading days preceding and including the date of the Annual
Meeting of Stockholders.
Annual Grant of Corporation Options
The Amendments will discontinue, as of January 1, 1995, the
quarterly grant of stock options to purchase Common Stock of the
Corporation based on attendance by outside Directors at meetings
of the Board of Directors or its committees. The annual award of
options to purchase 1,000 shares of Common Stock to each eligible
34
PAGE
<PAGE>
Director as of the close of business on the date of the
Corporation's Annual Meeting of Stockholders would be retained,
although the terms of the award would be modified. Options may
be exercised at any time from and after the six-month anniversary
of the grant date of the option and prior to the expiration of
the option on the third anniversary of the grant date (reduced
from the present seven year term). Options will be subject to
restrictions on resale and to the repurchase by the Corporation
of the shares subject to option at the exercise price if the
Director ceases to serve as a director of the Corporation, Thermo
Electron or any subsidiary of Thermo Electron, for any reason
other than death, within one year from the date of grant. The
option exercise price shall be determined by the average closing
price of the Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange for the
five trading days preceding and including the date of the Annual
Meeting of Stockholders.
Grant of Subsidiary Options
The Amendments also provide that options to purchase shares
of the common stock of majority-owned subsidiaries of the
Corporation will be granted automatically to eligible outside
Directors at the close of business on the date of the first
Annual Meeting of Stockholders following the spinout of the
subsidiary (referred to as the "Spinout Subsidiary"), and at the
close of business on the date of every fifth Annual Meeting of
Stockholders thereafter during the continuation of the plan. A
"spinout" shall be the first to occur of either a public offering
of the subsidiary's common stock or a private placement of such
stock primarily to third parties in an arms-length transaction.
At the close of business on the date of the applicable Annual
Meeting of Stockholders, options to purchase 1,500 shares of
common stock of the Spinout Subsidiary will be granted to each
eligible outside Director holding office immediately following
the meeting. In addition, Thermo Remediation shall be deemed to
be a Spinout Subsidiary and stock option grants will be made in
accordance with the Directors Plan commencing with the
Corporation's 1995 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. A Director
who is also a director of a Spinout Subsidiary will not be
eligible to receive options to purchase stock of that subsidiary
under the Directors Plan, although he or she will be eligible for
options granted under a comparable formula plan adopted by the
subsidiary. The exercise price for options will be determined by
the average of the closing prices reported by the American Stock
Exchange (or other principal market on which such common stock is
then traded) for the five trading days immediately preceding the
date on which the option is granted or, if the shares are not
then traded, at the last price paid per share by independent
investors in an arms-length private placement of common stock
prior to the option grant under the Directors Plan. Options to
purchase the common stock of a Spinout Subsidiary will vest and
be exercisable upon the fourth anniversary of the grant date,
unless the common stock underlying the option grant is registered
under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended ("Section 12 Registration") prior to such date. Section
35
PAGE
<PAGE>
12 Registration is normally a prerequisite to the public trading
of a security. In the event that the effective date of Section
12 Registration occurs prior to the fourth anniversary of the
grant date, then the option will become immediately exercisable
and the shares acquired upon exercise will be subject to
restrictions on transfer and the right of the Corporation to
repurchase such shares at the exercise price in the event the
Director ceases to serve as a Director of the Corporation, Thermo
Electron or any subsidiary of Thermo Electron. In such event,
the restrictions and repurchase rights shall lapse or be deemed
to have lapsed at the rate of 25% per year, starting with the
first anniversary of the grant date, provided the Director has
continuously served as a Director of the Corporation, Thermo
Electron or any subsidiary of Thermo Electron since the grant
date. The option will expire on the fifth anniversary of the
grant date, unless the Director dies or otherwise ceases to serve
as a Director of the Corporation, Thermo Electron or any
subsidiary of Thermo Electron prior to that date.
Other Terms of the Directors Plan
A brief description of the other principal features of the
Directors Plan that are not affected by the Amendments follows,
but it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text
set forth in Appendix A.
Eligibility; Administration
Directors of the Corporation who are not employees of the
Corporation or any subsidiary or parent corporation of the
Corporation are eligible to participate in the Directors Plan.
The Directors Plan is administered by the Board of Directors of
the Corporation (the "Board"). All questions of interpretation
of the Directors Plan or of any options granted pursuant to the
Plan are determined by the Board.
Terms and Conditions of Options
The exercise price for options is determined by the average
of the closing prices reported by the American Stock Exchange (or
other principal exchange in which the Common Stock is then
traded) for the five trading days immediately preceding and
including the date the option is granted, or, if the shares
underlying the option are not so traded, at the last price paid
per share by third parties in an arms-length transaction with the
Corporation or the applicable subsidiary prior to the option
grant. The exercise price of options granted under the Directors
Plan must be paid in full by check or by the delivery of shares
of Common Stock (or shares of the common stock of the applicable
subsidiary) that have a fair market value on the exercise date
equal to the exercise price of the option. Stock options granted
under the plan are intended to be non-statutory stock options.
If a Director dies or otherwise ceases to serve as a Director of
the Corporation, Thermo Electron or any subsidiary of Thermo
Electron, or the Corporation is liquidated, the options will
36
PAGE
<PAGE>
terminate. Options are evidenced by a written agreement and are
subject to transfer restrictions that lapse as to all of the
shares on the first anniversary of the grant date, as to annual
grants of options to purchase Common Stock of the Corporation,
and ratably over a four-year period as to options to purchase
common stock of Spinout Subsidiaries of the Corporation, as
described above under the caption "Grant of Subsidiary Options."
Option holders will be permitted to tender shares of Common Stock
(or shares of the common stock of the applicable subsidiary) to
satisfy withholding tax obligations, if any.
Change in Control Provisions
If there is a "Change in Control" of the Corporation or its
parent corporation, Thermo Electron, as defined in the Directors
Plan, any stock options that are not then exercisable and fully
vested will become fully exercisable and vested; and the
restrictions applicable to shares purchased upon exercise of
options will lapse and such shares will be free of restrictions
and fully vested. Generally, a "Change in Control" occurs if (1)
any person other than Thermo Electron becomes the beneficial
owner of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock of the
Corporation, or any person becomes the beneficial owner of 25% or
more of the outstanding common stock of Thermo Electron, without
the prior approval of the Board of Directors, or the board of
directors of Thermo Electron, as the case may be, (2) during any
two-year period the individuals who constituted the Board of
Directors or the board of directors of Thermo Electron at the
beginning of such period no longer represent a majority of such
board, or (3) the Board of Directors or the board of directors of
Thermo Electron determines that any other event constitutes an
effective change in control of the Corporation or Thermo
Electron.
Amendment and Termination
The Directors Plan remains in full force and effect until
suspended or discontinued by the Board. The Board may at any
time or times amend or review the Directors Plan, provided that
no amendment that is not approved by the Stockholders of the
Corporation shall be effective if it would cause the Directors
Plan to fail to satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3 (or any
successor rule) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. No amendment of the Directors Plan or any agreement
evidencing options granted under the Directors Plan may adversely
affect the rights of any recipient of any option previously
granted without such recipient's consent.
Shares Subject to the Directors Plan
The number of shares of the Common Stock that has been
reserved for issuance under the Directors Plan is 75,000 shares.
If the Amendments to the Directors Plan are approved by the
Stockholders at this Meeting, an additional 25,000 shares of the
common stock of each Spinout Subsidiary created from time to time
37
PAGE
<PAGE>
will also be reserved for transfer upon exercise of options
granted thereunder. Options and shares that are forfeited or
otherwise reacquired by the Corporation will again be available
for the grant of options under the Directors Plan. If the
outstanding shares of Common Stock or the outstanding shares of
common stock of any Spinout Subsidiary are increased, decreased
or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other
securities through merger, consolidation, stock split, stock
dividend, reverse stock split or other distribution, an
appropriate proportionate adjustment may be made in the maximum
number or kind of shares reserved for issuance under the
Directors Plan.
The proceeds received by the Corporation from exercises
under the Directors Plan will be used for the general purposes of
the Corporation. Shares issued under the Directors Plan may be
authorized but unissued shares, or shares reacquired by the
Corporation and held in its treasury.
Effective Date
The Amendments will be effective as of January 1, 1995, if
approved by the Stockholders of the Corporation at this Meeting.
Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following is a summary of the principal current Federal
income tax consequences of stock options granted under the
Directors Plan. It does not describe all Federal tax
consequences under the Directors Plan, nor does it describe
state, local or foreign tax consequences.
The stock options granted under the Directors Plan are
non-statutory stock options and therefore no income will be
realized by the optionee at the time the option is granted.
Generally, at exercise, ordinary income will be realized by the
optionee in an amount equal to the difference between the option
price and the fair market value of the shares on the date of
exercise. The Corporation receives a tax deduction for the same
amount, and, upon disposition of the shares, appreciation or
depreciation after the date of exercise will be treated as either
short-term or long-term capital gain depending on how long the
shares have been held.
NEW PLAN BENEFITS
Only the outside Directors of the Corporation are eligible
to participate in the Directors Plan. The following table sets
forth, to the extent determinable, the number of shares of the
Common Stock of the Corporation that will be granted under the
Directors Plan in the first year the Amendments are in effect to
the "non-executive Director Group" if the Amendments are approved
by the Stockholders. Named executive officers and other employee
groups are not set forth in the table as such persons and groups
are not eligible to receive options under the Directors Plan.

Recommendation
The Board of Directors believes that the Amendments to the
Directors Plan will enable the Corporation to ensure the
continued services and contributions of its outside Directors and
to attract and retain other highly qualified individuals to serve
as outside Directors from time to time. Accordingly, the Board
of Directors believes that the proposal is in the best interest
of the Corporation and its Stockholders and recommends that the
Stockholders vote "FOR" the approval of the Amendments to the
Directors Plan to change the formula for the grant of stock
options to purchase Common Stock of the Corporation to outside
Directors and to provide for the automatic grant to outside
Directors of options to purchase common stock of the
Corporation's majority-owned subsidiaries created from time to
time. If not otherwise specified, Proxies will be voted FOR
approval of this proposal. Thermo Electron, which beneficially
owned approximately 80.6% of the outstanding Common Stock as of
October 26, 1995, has sufficient votes to approve the proposal
and has indicated its intention to vote for the proposal.
APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
The Board of Directors has appointed Arthur Andersen LLP as
independent public accountants for fiscal 1996. Arthur Andersen
LLP has acted as independent public accountants for the
Corporation since its inception in 1986. Representatives of that
firm are expected to be present at the Meeting, will have the
opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will
be available to respond to questions. The Board of Directors has
established an Audit Committee, presently consisting of two
outside Directors, the purpose of which is to review the scope
and results of the audit.
OTHER ACTION
Management is not aware at this time of any other matters
that will be presented for action at the Meeting. Should any such
matters be presented, the Proxies grant power to the Proxy
holders to vote shares represented by the Proxies in the
discretion of such Proxy holders.
STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS
Proposals of Stockholders intended to be presented at the
1996 Annual Meeting of the Stockholders of the Corporation must
