SPECIALTY RETAIL SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995
Note A - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted.
It is suggested that these unaudited condensed financial statements be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the consolidated statement of
deficiency in net assets available in liquidation and changes in deficiency in
net assets available in liquidation at September 30, 1996 and for all periods
presented herein have been made. The consolidated statements of changes in
deficiency in net assets for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ended December
31, 1996.
B - Liquidation of business
On October 24, 1991, Specialty Retail Services, Inc. (the "Company")
announced that the Board of Directors of Gobi-Primak, Inc., ("Gobi"), its
principal operating subsidiary, had determined that there were no further
sources of capital available to meet the severe working capital shortages faced
by Gobi, and further announced that it intended to explore various alternatives,
including the sale of Gobi.
On November 5, 1991, Fleet Credit Corporation ("Fleet") sent Gobi a
letter of an event of default under Gobi's loan agreement with Fleet, demanding
immediate repayment of all sums outstanding under the loan agreement. The
Company entered into an arrangement with Fleet, whereby Fleet would take
peaceful possession of all of Gobi's assets and begin the orderly liquidation of
Gobi's assets.
Fleet immediately appointed a liquidator, Alco Capital, to supervise
the liquidation of all of Gobi's assets. In 1992, all of the assets of Gobi were
liquidated.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF DEFICIENCY IN NET ASSETS
AVAILABLE IN LIQUIDATION
In the third quarter of 1994, the Company settled a disagreement with
subordinated note holders. The subordinated note holders began to be paid
amounts due, commencing October 1, 1994, with payments scheduled to continue
through June 1, 1999. The principal of approximately $267,000 is included in the
Consolidated Statement of Deficiency in Net Assets in Liquidation, and the
balance of approximately $37,000 will be recognized as interest in future
periods as per the subordinated note terms. These obligations have been
personally guaranteed by a director of the Company. The director is currently
satisfying the notes, and as payments are made, the Company will have an
obligation to repay the director. The director has the option to pledge certain
securities to the payees of these notes, in which event the Company shall be
released of all obligations to those payees.
During 1992, Gobi's senior lender, Fleet Credit Corporation ("Fleet"),
completed the liquidation of Gobi's assets and generated funds to reduce the
note payable to the bank by approximately $1,400,000.
There are no assets available for disbursement to unsecured creditors.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
On November 5, 1991, Gobi was notified by Fleet that an Event of
Default existed under Gobi's Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Loan
Agreement dated as of April 25, 1989. The Company's Board of Directors elected
to turn over all of Gobi's assets to Fleet for liquidation on a peaceful
possession basis. Fleet immediately began the liquidation of Gobi's assets. In
1992, all of the assets of Gobi were liquidated.
