RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Until 2 March 1998, Tech Textiles International was a division of T&N plc, a
company incorporated in England and Wales. On that date, Tech Textiles
International was acquired by Brunswick Technologies, Inc., a company
incorporated in the United States of America, through its wholly owned
subsidiary, Brunswick Technologies Europe Limited.

These financial statements have been prepared solely for the purposes of the
directors of Brunswick Technologies, Inc. in connection with their acquisition
of Tech Textiles International. To that end, the directors of Brunswick
Technologies, Inc. have accepted responsibility for:

         -        preparing financial statements for Tech Textiles International

         -        maintaining adequate accounting records

         -        safeguarding the assets

         -        preventing and detecting fraud and other irregularities.

The directors of Brunswick Technologies, Inc. confirm that suitable accounting
policies, consistently applied and supported by reasonable and prudent
judgements and estimates, have been used in the preparation of the financial
statements and that applicable accounting standards have been followed.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE DIRECTORS OF BRUNSWICK TECHNOLOGIES,
INC.


We have audited the financial statements set out on pages 4 to 13, which have
been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United Kingdom. These financial statements have been prepared solely for the
purposes of the directors of Brunswick Technologies Inc. in connection with
their acquisition of Tech Textiles International. They have not been prepared
under section 226 of the Companies Act 1985.

RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF DIRECTORS AND AUDITORS

As described on page 1, the directors of Brunswick Technologies, Inc. have taken
responsibility for the preparation of the financial statements. It is our
responsibility to form an independent opinion, based on our audit, on those
financial statements and to report our opinion.

BASIS OF OPINION

We conducted our audit in accordance with UK Auditing Standards issued by the
Auditing Practices Board, which are substantially the same as those issued in
the United States. An audit includes examination, on a test basis, of evidence
relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. It also
includes an assessment of the significant estimates and judgements made by the
directors in the preparation of the financial statements, and of whether the
accounting policies are appropriate to the division's circumstances,
consistently applied and adequately disclosed.

We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and
explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with
sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements
are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other
irregularity or error. In forming our opinion we also evaluated the overall
adequacy of the presentation of information in the financial statements.

OPINION

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Tech Textiles International at 31 December
1997 and 31 December 1996 and the results of its operations and cash flows for
the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United Kingdom.

The accounting principles applied vary in certain respects from accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. In our opinion, application
of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States would have
affected the determination of the amounts shown as net income for the year ended
31 December 1997 and the year ended 31 December 1996 and the amount of the
assets at 31 December 1997 and 31 December 1996 to the extent summarised in
notes 21 and 22.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE
YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 1997 AND THE YEAR
ENDED 31 DECEMBER 1996

1        PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable
Accounting Standards in the United Kingdom. A summary of the more important
accounting policies, which have been applied consistently, is set out below.


(a)      BASIS OF PREPARATION

         These financial statements are not prepared under section 226 of the
         Companies Act 1985.

         The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
         historical cost convention solely for the purposes of the directors of
         Brunswick Technologies, Inc. in connection with their acquisition of
         Tech Textiles International.

(b)      BASIS OF TRANSLATION INTO US DOLLARS

         The profit and loss account and cash flow statement for the year ended
         31 December 1997 and the balance sheet at that date have been
         translated into US dollars on a convenience basis using the exchange
         rate in force on 31 December 1997 of pound sterling 1 = $1.65. This
         rate is not significantly different from the rate at 30 April 1998.

         US dollar-equivalent amounts are presented for reference only, and
         should not be regarded as US dollar financial statements.

(c)      CASH FLOW STATEMENT

         A cash flow statement has been prepared in accordance with UK
         accounting standards and is set out on page 6.

(d)      TURNOVER

         Turnover represents sales to third parties excluding value added tax.

1        PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(e)      DEPRECIATION

         Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets over
         their expected useful lives on a straight line basis. The principal
         annual rates used for this purpose, which have been applied
         consistently, are as follows:

         Plant and machinery                         -    7% to 10%
         Office equipment                            -    25% to 33%

(f)      STOCK AND WORK IN PROGRESS

         Stock and work in progress is valued at the lower of cost and net
         realizable value. Cost is determined on a first in first out basis and
         comprises direct material cost, direct labor cost and attributable
         production overheads.

(g)      RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

         Research and development expenditure is written off as incurred.

(h)      FOREIGN CURRENCIES

         Assets and liabilities are translated to sterling at the rates of
         exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions are translated
         at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Differences arising
         from trading transactions are included in operating profit.

(i)      PENSION COSTS

         Pension costs are accounted for on the basis of charging the cost of
         providing pensions over the period during which the company benefits
         from employees' services.

(j)      OPERATING LEASES

         Costs in respect of operating leases are charged in arriving at the
         operating result.

9        PENSION COSTS

Eight of the division's employees belong to The T&N plc Group Pension Scheme,
for which contributions are paid monthly. The Scheme is a defined benefit scheme
in the United Kingdom, the assets of which are held in a separate
trust-administered fund.

The pension cost is assessed in accordance with the advice of independent
qualified actuaries in order to secure final salary-related benefits. According
to the latest available published financial statements of T&N plc for the year
ended 31 December 1996, the most recent actuarial valuation, using the projected
unit method, was carried out on 31 March 1993. The market value of the assets of
the Scheme at that date was pound sterling 747 million and the actuarial value 
of these assets represented 129% of the benefits which had accrued to members 
after allowing for increases in earnings and Scheme improvements.

The assumptions which have the most significant effect on the results of this
valuation are those relating to the differentials between the rates of return on
investments and the rates of increase in salaries and pensions. It was assumed
that the investment return would be 2% per annum higher than the rate of annual
salary increases, and 5% per annum higher than the rate at which present and
future pensions would increase.

The surplus in the United Kingdom scheme is being amortised over thirteen years,
the average remaining service lives of employees.

Pension costs for the year ended 31 December 1997 amounted to pound sterling
29,000 (1996: pound sterling 29,000)

21       DIFFERENCES BETWEEN UK GAAP AND US GAAP

The accounting policies and accounting standards under which the financial
statements of the company are prepared are in accordance with UK GAAP. The major
differences between UK GAAP and US GAAP, as they affect the financial statements
of Tech Textiles International, are set out below:

         INTANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

         Under UK GAAP, intangible fixed assets such as patents and trademarks
         may be expensed in the year in which they are acquired. Under US GAAP,
         intangible fixed assets must be capitalised and amortised over a period
         up to a maximum of 40 years. Since the patents and trademarks expensed
         by Tech Textiles International have an average useful economic life of
         twenty years, that has been used as the period over which amortisation
         is charged in the reconciliations in note 22.

         CASH FLOW

         Under US GAAP, bank overdrafts are not considered to be part of net
         cash equivalents and so changes in bank overdrafts (net) are included
         in cash flows financing activities. Under UK GAAP, bank overdrafts form
         part of net cash.
