                         Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Firetector Inc. and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Firetector Inc.
and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of September 30, 1995 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for
the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated results of operations and
cash flows of Firetector Inc. and Subsidiaries at September 30, 1995 and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then
ended.

The accompanying 1995 consolidated financial statements have been prepared
assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described
in Note 1, prior to the current year the Company incurred recurring operating
losses. In addition, the Company's revolving bank credit line is due to expire
on March 31, 1996, and there is no assurance that the bank will renew the line.
Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect possible future
effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and
classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the
Company to continue as a going concern.

                Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Firetector Inc. and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows of Firetector Inc. and subsidiaries for the
year ended September 30,1994. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated results of operations and
cash flows of Firetector Inc. and subsidiaries for the year ended September 30,
1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying 1994 consolidated financial statements have been prepared
assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. Management's plans in
regard to this matter are described in Note 1. The Company has incurred
recurring operating losses and is not in compliance with certain financial
covenants of its bank credit facility. These conditions raise substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The 1994 financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.
