PENSION PLAN

     The Roadmaster Corporate Retirement Benefit Plan for Salaried Employees
(the "Pension Plan"), a noncontributory defined benefit plan, was amended
effective December 31, 1989 to provide that no hours of service, years of credit
service, compensation increase or other service performed after December 31,
1989 would be counted for any purpose under the Pension Plan, so that all
benefit accruals under the Pension Plan would cease effective as of December 31,
1989 and all participants in the Pension Plan would be fully vested in their
accrued benefits effective as of December 31, 1989.

     Mr. Shake and Mr. Sanders are the only executive officers eligible to
participate in the Pension Plan. Benefits provided under the Pension Plan for
Mr. Shake and Mr. Sanders are frozen at $7,503 and $4,048 per year,
respectively. Such benefits are payable at age 65 (normal retirement age).
Benefits provided under the Pension Plan are in addition to normal Social
Security retirement benefits and maximum benefits under the Pension Plan
currently are limited to $115,641 for each participant.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

     In connection with the acquisitions of the Sports Subsidiaries, Henry Fong
and Edward E. Shake each entered into five year employment agreements with the
Company. Certain provisions of such Employment Agreements are discussed below.
The Agreements are subject to automatic renewal for additional one year terms
unless terminated by either party upon thirty days written notice prior to the
end of the initial or successive terms.

     The Employment Agreements for Mr. Fong and Mr. Shake provide that for all
services rendered under such agreements, the Company will pay Mr. Fong and Mr.
Shake a salary of $600,000 per year and $450,000 per year, respectively. In
addition, the Company will provide Mr. Fong and Mr. Shake with such other
benefits as may, from time to time, be approved by the Board of Directors. Mr.
Fong and Mr. Shake are required to devote their full time, attention and
energies to the business of the Company, except that Mr. Fong may continue to
serve as President and a director of Equitex and may pursue such other business
investments (other than as an employee) as he shall elect as long as such duties
and pursuits do not interfere with his duties to the Company and are not in
competition, either directly or indirectly, with the activities of the Company.

     Mr. Fong and Mr. Shake have agreed to certain covenants with respect to
confidential information of the Company and have agreed that during the term of
their respective employment and for a period of twenty-four months thereafter,
irrespective of the manner or reason for termination of their employment, that
they will not engage in, supervise, assist or own any interest in any entity
engaged in substantially the same business as the Company in the geographic
areas in which the Company operates.

     The Employment Agreements may be terminated "for cause" by the affirmative
vote of a majority of the Board of Directors entitled to vote thereon. "Cause"
is generally defined as (i) conviction with respect to any felony; (ii) a
willful refusal by the employee to perform material duties and responsibilities
required in connection with his employment; (iii) a breach by the employee of
any covenant, warranty, representation or condition in his Employment Agreement;
(iv) substantial disability for a specified period or (v) any misappropriation,
theft or embezzlement of funds of the Company or any other act of fraud or
deceit.

     Each Employment Agreement may be terminated without cause by the
affirmative vote of two-thirds of the members of the Company's entire Board of
Directors if the Company is "profitable" and by the affirmative vote of a
majority of the Board if the Company is not "profitable." For purposes of the
Employment Agreements, the Company shall be deemed to be profitable if the most
current audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its
subsidiaries for the preceding fiscal year reflect positive net income from
continuing operations calculated in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.

     In the event Mr. Fong's Employment Agreement is terminated without cause
while the Company is profitable, the Company is obligated to continue to pay Mr.
Fong all compensation payable under his Employment Agreement during the
remainder of its then current term. In the event Mr. Shake's Employment
Agreement is terminated without cause while the Company is profitable, the
Company is obligated to continue to pay Mr. Shake all compensation payable under
his Employment Agreement for the longer of the remainder of its then current
term or twenty-four months.

DIRECTORS' FEES AND COMPENSATION

     All directors are reimbursed for all expenses incurred in attending board
and committee meetings. Each director who is not an employee of the Company also
is paid: (i) an annual retainer of $20,000, payable in equal monthly
installments; (ii) $1,000 for each Board meeting attended and (iii) $1,000 per
committee meeting attended for committee meetings conducted on a date different
from the date of a meeting of the Board of Directors. In addition, each
nonemployee director is eligible, pursuant to the Company's Directors Restricted
Stock Plan, to receive each year that number of shares of Common Stock having a
Fair Market Value of $10,000 upon annual reelection to the Board.

DIRECTORS' RESTRICTED STOCK PLAN

     In October 1994, the Board of Directors adopted a new multi-year Directors'
Restricted Stock Plan (the "DRSP") for its outside directors as a means of
encouraging ownership of the Company's Common Stock and to more closely align
the interests of its outside directors with the interests of the Company's
stockholders in general. The DRSP is intended to be a self-administering plan
which permits the participation of all non-employee directors. The DRSP provides
that during the term of such plan, each individual who is elected to serve as a
non-employee director will, on the day immediately following the non-employee
director's election to the Board, be granted restricted stock having a value on
such date of $10,000. The number of shares to be granted is calculated by
dividing $10,000 by the Fair Market Value (as defined) of the Common Stock on
the date of grant. Annual grants in the same amount will be made each time an
individual is elected or re-elected to serve as a non-employee director. Shares
generally vest upon the last day of the director's term for which shares were
awarded; provided, however, that all unvested shares will become one hundred
percent (100%) vested upon the death, disability or retirement of the
participant or upon the effective date of a Change in Control (as defined) of
the Company. A total of 87,500 shares are available for grant under the DRSP, of
which 22,400 shares have been granted as of the date of the Record Date. Each
director was awarded 3,200 shares on June 15, 1995.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND
         MANAGEMENT

   

     The following table sets forth, as of April 18, 1996, certain information
concerning ownership of Common Stock by: (i) each person who is known by the
Company to own beneficially more than 5% of the Common Stock, (ii) each director
individually, (iii) the Company's Chief Executive Officer and each other
executive officer listed in the Summary Compensation Table (collectively, a
"Named Executive Officer"), and (iv) all directors and executive officers of the
Company as a group. The determinations of "beneficial ownership" of Common Stock
are based upon Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. Such rule provides that shares
will be deemed "beneficially owned" where a person has, either solely or in
conjunction with others, the power to vote or to direct the voting of shares
and/or the power to dispose, or to direct the disposition of, shares or where a
person has the right to acquire any such power within 60 days after the date
such "beneficial ownership" is determined.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

   

     Since its inception in 1987, the Company has engaged Equitex as a
management consultant on a nonexclusive basis for an annual fee, payable in
equal monthly installments. Such annual fee was $144,000 in 1995. This
engagement is renewable annually. Mr. Fong is the President, a director and
approximately a 5% shareholder of Equitex. Equitex is a business development
company which invests in start up or restructuring companies by providing these
companies with management consulting expertise and interim financing, often
accepting equity positions in lieu of all or part of its fees.

     The Company retains office space in Englewood, Colorado which formerly
served as its executive offices. Such space is provided to the Company by
Equitex which, in turn, leases such space for $2,500 per month from a
partnership of which Mr. Fong and his wife are the sole partners. Since 1991,
the Company has paid approximately 50% of the lease, payments and costs of
telephone services. Pursuant to such cost-sharing arrangements, the Company made
payments to Equitex of $48,101 in 1995. The Company believes these terms and its
portion of the underlying lease payment to be no less favorable than those which
could be obtained from non-affiliated parties in the same area.

     In connection with the exercise of warrants in February 1993 under the
November 1992 Stock Purchase Plan, the Company made loans to 21 employees to
enable such employees to exercise their warrants. Such loans included a $224,311
loan to Mr. Shake to purchase 165,387 shares of Common Stock. During 1995, the
largest principal amount owed by Mr. Shake was $224,311. Such loan was secured
by the Common Stock obtained by Mr. Shake pursuant to the warrant exercise and
currently bears interest at the rate of prime plus 2% per annum. Although such
loan was scheduled to mature on February 24, 1996, the Company has extended the
maturity date for an additional year.

     In December 1994, the Board of Directors elected Mr. Hinton as Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, which required that he
relocate to the metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia area. The Company agreed to
purchase Mr. Hinton's Indiana residence in the event such residence had not sold
within one year following his relocation and to reimburse him for his carrying
costs for such year. In December 1995, the Company purchased such residence at
its appraised value ($130,500 based on an independent appraisal). Mr. Hinton had
acquired such residence in October 1993 for a purchase price of $129,900.
Subsequent to year end, the Company also reimbursed Mr. Hinton $23,617 for his
carrying costs subsequent to his relocation ($12,119) and the payment of related
income taxes ($11,498) on such reimbursement.
