Auditors' report


We have audited the 1998 Group accounts and annual accounts for Sabroe
Refrigeration A/S as prepared by the Management.

Basis of opinion

We have planned and conducted the audit in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, 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 accounts are free from material misstatements.
Based on an evaluation of materiality and risk, we have, during the audit,
verified the basis and documentation for the amounts and other information
disclosed in the accounts. We have assessed the accounting policies applied and
the accounting estimates made, as well as evaluated the overall adequacy of the
presentation of information in the accounts. Our audit has not given rise to any
qualifications.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Group accounts and annual accounts have been prepared in
accordance with the accounting provisions of Danish legislation, and give a true
and fair view of the parent company's and Group's assets and liabilities,
financial position and profit for the year.

Accounting policies


The accounts of the Group and of the parent company have been prepared in
accordance with the Danish Company Accounts Act, and are presented on the basis
of the same accounting policies as last year.

Group accounts

The Group accounts include the accounts of the parent company, Sabroe
Refrigeration A/S, and its subsidiaries. The companies that are not
subsidiaries, but in which Sabroe Refrigeration A/S or a subsidiary owns 20% or
more of the voting rights, are considered associated undertakings.

The annual accounts of the Group companies have been prepared in overall
conformity with the accounting policies used by the parent company.

The Group accounts have been prepared by adding identical items, and then
eliminating internal income and expense items, internal shareholdings, inter-
company balances and internal profit on stocks.

Newly acquired companies are included in the Group result from the time of
acquisition. Companies sold off are included in the profit and loss account
until the date of their disposal, except in the case of companies where the
decision to sell them was already taken in 1996 as part of the overall strategy
for setting up the present structure of ownership and the current organisational
structure. Such companies are left out of the consolidation process, and are
included in a separate item in the profit and loss account.

When the Group takes over new companies, goodwill is calculated as the
difference between the purchase price and the intrinsic value of the newly
acquired company at the date of acquisition, calculated in accordance with the
Group's accounting policies, and after any possible value adjustments of assets
and liabilities. The goodwill statement includes provisions for restructuring
costs agreed at the date of acquisition, and paid as a consequence of the
acquisition. Goodwill is amortised over five years. In the case of larger-scale
strategic acquisitions with long-term effects on earnings, goodwill is amortised
over a maximum of twenty years.

The minority shareholders' proportional share of the profit and equity of the
subsidiaries is stated separately, and is not included in the Group result or
Group equity.

Foreign currencies

Assets and liabilities are translated into Danish kroner (DKK) at the rates of
exchange on 31

                                      F-3
<PAGE>

December or, in such cases where forward contracts have been entered into, at
the forward rate.

Materialised and non-materialised exchange gains/losses on outstanding accounts,
etc., in foreign currencies are included in the profit and loss account under
financial items. Foreign exchange gains/losses on financial contracts purchased
to hedge customer orders are entered in the profit and loss account on the day
the orders are settled.

The annual accounts of foreign subsidiaries are converted into Danish kroner
(DKK) using the rates of exchange on 31 December for balance sheet items, and
using the rates of exchange on the transaction date for profit and loss account
items. The difference between the rate on the transaction date and the year-end
rate is entered directly in the equity account. Differences in exchange rates
arising from the conversion of the foreign subsidiaries' equity at the beginning
of the year and that at year-end are regulated via the equity account. Exchange
gains/losses from the hedging of foreign subsidiaries' equity are
correspondingly regulated via the equity account.

Profit and loss account

Net turnover
The net turnover is calculated according to the completed contract method.

For large orders on the account of a third party, the percentage-of-completion
method has been used, which means that the value of the part of the orders that
has been completed has been included at the estimated sales value of the work
carried out.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales include costs inclusive of depreciation and the salaries incurred
to achieve the net turnover of the financial year. The sales companies include
the cost of goods sold, and the production companies include the manufacturing
costs corresponding to the turnover of the financial year. Cost of sales also
includes R&D costs.

Distribution costs
Distribution costs include the cost of sales personnel, advertising and
exhibitions, etc., inclusive of depreciation.

Administrative costs
Administrative costs include the cost of administrative personnel, the
management, office premises, office expenses, etc., inclusive of depreciation.

Financial items
Financial items include interest income/expenses, materialised and non-
materialised foreign exchange gains related to receivables and payables in
foreign currencies.

                                      F-4
<PAGE>

Profits/losses of subsidiaries and associated undertakings
The proportional share of the profits/losses of the individual subsidiaries less
non-materialised internal profit and less amortisation on consolidated goodwill
is entered in the profit and loss account of the parent company as income. The
share of the tax of subsidiaries is charged to the tax item of the profit and
loss account.

The proportional share of the profits/losses of the associated undertakings less
non-materialised internal profit is entered in the profit and loss account of
the parent company and the Group as income. The share of the tax of associated
undertakings is charged to the tax item of the profit and loss account.

Tax
Tax is charged as the tax payable on the result for the year, plus any change in
deferred taxation.

Sabroe Refrigeration A/S is jointly taxed with the Danish companies within the
Sabroe Group, along with certain foreign companies within the Group. In the
jointly taxed Group, the tax payable by the subsidiary companies is paid to the
parent company as a joint taxation contribution. The joint taxation contribution
is entered as income in the parent company's accounts.

Extraordinary items
Extraordinary items include income and expenses related to matters other than
the ordinary activities.

Balance Sheet

Intangible fixed assets
Intangible fixed assets are stated at purchase price less accumulated
amortisation. Amortisation is carried out on a straight line basis over the
expected useful life of the asset, up to a maximum of five years.

In the case of larger-scale strategic acquisitions with long-term effects on
earnings, goodwill is amortised over a maximum of twenty years.

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at purchase price or cost price less
accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is carried out on a straight line basis
over the estimated useful life of the assets, which is 20-30 years for buildings
and 3-6 years for technical plant and machinery, etc.

Assets with a purchase price or cost price of less than DKK 25,000 per unit are
entered as

                                      F-5
<PAGE>

expenditure in the year of acquisition.

Financial fixed assets
Investments in subsidiaries and associated undertakings are recorded in the
annual accounts of the parent company using the equity method. The investments
are valued at the pro rata share of the companies' equity, with the addition of
consolidated goodwill and less non-materialised intra-group profit and
amortisation on consolidated goodwill.

Net assets in non-continuing companies are included in a separate item under
financial fixed assets.

Other financial fixed assets are valued at purchase price less any write-downs.

Stocks
Raw materials and consumables are valued at purchase price.

Work in progress and stocks are valued at cost, which includes costs directly
attributable to the cost price of the raw materials and consumables, plus the
cost of processing these, and any other costs arising directly or indirectly
from the production of the goods in question.

For stocks whose expected selling price less any completion and sales costs (the
net realisable value) is lower than the purchase price or the cost price
respectively, the price is written down to the net realisable value.

Large orders on the account of a third party have been valued at the sales value
of the part of the orders that has been executed as at the balance sheet date
(the percentage-of-completion method). In the case of loss-making orders,
provision is made for any foreseeable losses.

Cost and purchase prices are calculated using the FIFO method.

Any pre-payments received from customers are set off against work in progress
for the account of third parties to the extent that these pre-payments
correspond to the value of work in progress.

Receivables
A provision for receivables is made on the basis of an individual assessment of
each receivable.

Provisions
Pension commitments that are not covered by insurance are calculated as the
capitalised value of the actual pensions concerned.

                                      F-6
<PAGE>

Deferred tax is provided for as the difference between the book values and the
taxable values, apart from such differences between capital shares in subsidiary
companies and associated undertakings, since the intention is that these
holdings will be retained over a longer period of time.

Guarantee provisions include provisions for general and specific guarantee
commitments.

Other provisions are made to the extent that unclarified risks of claims related
to specific cases are outstanding at the end of the financial year, inclusive of
provisions concerning loss-making projects. Moreover, provisions are made for
restructuring initiatives that have been decided upon but are yet to be
completed, and where there is uncertainty as to the final costs or the time at
which said costs are to be met.

Group cash flow statement

The cash flow statement shows the Group's cash flow for the year, along with the
Group's liquid assets at the beginning and end of the financial year. The cash
flow is shown divided up by activity, involving operations, investments and
financing.

The cash flow statement is laid out using the indirect method, on the basis of
the operating profit.

The cash flow from operations is calculated on the basis of the operating profit
adjusted for non-liquid operating items, changes in net working capital, and
paid-up financial items and corporation taxes. The net working capital includes
stocks, current assets and short-term debt related to operating activities.

The cash flow from investments includes the sale and purchase of fixed assets,
including participating interests in other companies.

The cash flow from financing activities includes payments to and from
shareholders, and the raising and repayment of both long-term and short-term
interest-bearing debt.

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and bank deposits.

                   YORK INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION AND SABROE
                   UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

          The following unaudited pro forma financial information reflects the
combined results of operations of York International Corporation ("York") and
Sabroe A/S ("Sabroe") as if the June 10, 1999 acquisition of Sabroe by York had
occurred on January 1, 1998 with respect to the information for the year ended
December 31, 1998 and January 1, 1999 with respect to the six months ended June
30, 1999.  The results of operations are derived from York's historical
consolidated statement of operations and Sabroe's historical consolidated
statement of operations.

          The unaudited pro forma financial information should be read in
conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of York and of
Sabroe.  The effect of restructuring, acquisition and integration charges
expected to be taken in connection with the acquisition has not been reflected
in the pro forma financial information, as the amount of such charges has not
yet been determined.  The unaudited pro forma financial information does not
give effect to anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancement opportunities
that may result from the acquisition.  For purposes of the unaudited pro forma
financial information, the Sabroe assets and liabilities are accounted for at
fair values, based on independent appraisals and other information.  York is
developing a plan for restructuring and integrating Sabroe into the York
Refrigeration Group.  As restructuring plans are finalized and actions
implemented, the amount of unallocated excess of cost over net assets acquired
and other accruals may vary from such amounts included for purposes of the
unaudited pro forma financial information.

          The unaudited pro forma financial information is for informational
purposes only and may not be considered as necessarily indicative of what actual
results will be in the future.

          The pro forma adjustments reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro
forma financial information are as follows:

          Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations
          Information:
          (a)  Amortize unallocated excess of cost over net assets acquired of
               $449.5 million over a period of 30 years.
          (b)  Amortize trademarks and trade names acquired of $35.5 million
               over a period of 30 years.
          (c)  Amortize Patents and Proprietary technology acquired of $2.1
               million over a period of 15 years.
          (d)  Recognize net additional interest expense for borrowings related
               to the acquisition at historical rates.

                                      F-32
<PAGE>

          (e)  Adjust depreciation expense as a result of new fixed asset bases
               and depreciable lives.
          (f)  Acquisition and integration expenses primarily relating to the
               cost and loss on an option to fix the price of the acquisition.
               Additional restructuring, acquisition and integration expenses
               have not yet been determined.
          (g)  Record as expense an U.S. GAAP adjustment for a Sabroe
               acquisition reserve established and subsequently reversed into
               income during the first quarter 1999.
          (h)  Record adjustment to reflect income tax effect of adjustments.
