ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
On September 10, 1996, the Registrant sold and transferred all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary American Quality
Manufacturing Corporation ("AQM"), a Delaware corporation to Olympus Sales Co.
(the "Buyer"). The transfer of AQM stock to the Buyer relieved the Registrant of
the net liabilities of AQM upon consolidation. As part of the transaction, the
Registrant forgave approximately $2,300,000 of intercompany debt related to
advances made by the Registrant to AQM and unpaid management fees due from AQM.
The transaction also included the release of the Company's guaranty liability
associated with AQM's credit facilities with NBD Bank, N.A. and with guarantees
given to certain of AQM's trade creditors. The terms of the transaction were
negotiated in an arms length transaction and there was no relationship between
the Registrant and its affiliates and the Buyer.

PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA
(Unaudited)
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and unaudited pro
forma consolidated statements of operations have been derived from the balance
sheet and statements of operations of the Company as of March 31, 1996, for the
nine month period ended March 31, 1996 and for the year ended June 30, 1995. The
historical balance sheet is adjusted to give effect to the sale of 100% of the
common stock of AQM as if the sale had occurred on March 31, 1996. The
historical statements of operations are adjusted to give effect to the sale of
AQM as if the sale had occurred on July 1, 1994.
The sale of 100% of the common stock of AQM was effective on August 31, 1996.
The sale of AQM's common stock relieved the Registrant of AQM's net liabilities
at the sale date. As part of the sale agreement, the Company forgave
approximately $2,300,000 in intercompany advances and unpaid management fees.
This intercompany debt had been eliminated upon consolidation for all of the
Company's previously reported financial information. Other terms of the
agreement included the release of the Registrant's guarantee liability
associated with AQM's bank debt and trade debt with certain of AQM's creditors.
The pro forma balance sheet and pro forma statements of operations are presented
for informational purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the
financial condition or results of operations that actually would have resulted
if the sale of AQM had occurred on the dates indicated above nor which may
result from future operations.
Due to seasonal fluctuations in sales, results of operations in individual
quarters are not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for an
entire fiscal year. The pro forma consolidated balance sheet and pro forma
consolidated statements of operations should be read in conjunction with the
notes thereto and the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto filed in the Company's Form 10-KSB and Forms 10-QSB.

business (including patents, copyrights, trade names, trademarks, service marks
and other names and marks used in connection with the Company's operations and
whether or not reflected in the Latest Balance Sheet), free and clear of any
liens, claims, charges, options or other encumbrances. Except as previously
disclosed to Purchaser, there are no financing or construction statements filed
or signed which list the Company as debtor and no agreements exist authorizing
or permitting any person to sign or file any such statements. All machinery,
electronic equipment and other equipment in regular use included in such
personal property have been well maintained and are in good and serviceable
condition in all material respects, reasonable wear and tear excepted. The real
property as described in the leases hereinabove described constitutes all of the
interests in real property reflected in the Latest Balance Sheet, and except as
indicated, no real property or agreements to acquire real property have been
entered into by the Company, or by Seller for the benefit of the Company, since
the date of the Latest Balance Sheet. The buildings occupied by, and the
operations of the Company, conform in all material respects with all applicable
ordinances, regulations and zoning laws and all applicable requirements of
federal, state or local regulatory authorities, including any environmental,
OSHA or EPA or State requirements to the extent that any failure to comply
therewith would or may have a material effect on the business or properties of
the Company, and such buildings are in a reasonable state of repair and have
been well maintained. All leases of real or personal property are valid and in
full force and effect, and the Company has not breached any provision of, or
defaulted in any respect under the terms of, any such lease, and there has not
been any event that with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a
breach or default under any such lease.

control and access.

amount equal to all non-disclosed liabilities and obligations of the Company,
the value of scheduled assets which are not owned by the Company, and/or any
other loss, cost or expense suffered either by Purchaser or the Company to cure
any breach of such warranties, representations, covenants and agreements of
Article IV.
