ITEM 2.   ACQUISITION OF ASSETS.

          On May 3, 1995, Chempower, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the
          "Registrant") through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Southwick Corp.,
          an Ohio corporation, and Brookfield Corp., an Ohio corporation
          (collectively, "Buyers"), purchased all of the issued and outstanding
          partnership units ("Units"), representing all of the partnership
          interests of Controlled Power Limited Partnership, an Illinois
          limited partnership ("CPC"). CPC is in the business of designing,
          manufacturing and selling electrical metalclad switchgear, power
          distribution systems, bus duct systems and replacement parts for mass
          transit authorities, utilities, and chemical and other industrial
          facilities throughout the country. The purchase was effected pursuant
          to a Partnership Unit Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Purchase
          Agreement"), dated as of April 13, 1995. All of the outstanding Units
          were sold by Canton Power Corporation, an Illinois corporation, Henry
          Crown and Company (Not Incorporated), an Illinois limited
          partnership, and The Second Venture, an Illinois general partnership
          (collectively, "Sellers"). Through the purchase of the Units, the
          Buyers took control of CPC's inventory, accounts receivable, patents,
          real estate, plant and equipment. Pursuant to the terms of the
          Purchase Agreement, the Buyers made a cash payment of $4,900,000 to
          the Sellers at closing. The purchase price was paid from the cash
          reserves of the Buyers. The consideration paid by the Buyers in
          connection with the purchase was determined on the basis of (i)
          discussions between the management of the Registrant and
          representatives of the Sellers regarding the business and prospects
          of CPC. Contemporaneous with the closing of the purchase, the Buyers
          offered employment to all remaining employees of CPC as of the
          closing date. At the present time, it is the intention of the Buyers
          to continue the current business of CPC and to expand the business to
          offer sheet metal fabrication services.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Partners
Controlled Power Limited Partnership


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Controlled Power Limited
Partnership (A Partnership) as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related
statements of operations, partners' capital (deficit) and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Controlled Power Limited Partnership (A
Partnership) as of December 31, 1994 and 1993 and the results of its
operations, and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1994 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

CONTROLLED POWER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
(A PARTNERSHIP)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992


1.     ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

       Controlled Power Limited Partnership (the Partnership), was organized on
       March 14, 1989, under the Illinois Uniform Limited Partnership Act.  The
       Partnership was formed to purchase certain assets and assume certain
       liabilities of Controlled Power Corporation (CPC).  The Partnership
       shall expire on December 31, 2035, or sooner, in accordance with the
       provisions of the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement.
       The managing general partner of the Partnership is Canton Power
       Corporation.

       As shown in the financial statements, the Partnership has incurred
       significant losses and negative cash flow in the past three years,
       however, in management's opinion, recent changes in cost structure,
       declining backlog, available working capital and additional loans
       received in January 1995 will provide sufficient funding for the
       business in 1995.

       The financial statements include only those assets, liabilities,
       revenues and expenses which relate to the Partnership.  The financial
       statements do not include any assets, liabilities, revenues or expenses
       attributable to the partners' individual activities.

2.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

       METHOD OF ACCOUNTING FOR LONG-TERM CONTRACTS - The Partnership is
       engaged in the manufacture of electrical switchgear and DC power
       substations under long-term contracts.  The accompanying financial
       statements have been prepared using the percentage-of-completion method
       of accounting and, therefore, take into account the cost, estimated
       earnings and revenue to date on contracts not yet completed.

       The amount of revenue recognized is the portion of the total contract
       price that the cost expended to date bears to the anticipated final
       total cost, based on current estimates of cost to complete.  It is not
       related to the progress billings to customers.  Contract costs include
       all direct labor and benefits, materials unique to or installed in the
       project, subcontract costs and allocations of indirect manufacturing
       costs.

       As long-term contracts extend over one or more years, revisions in
       estimates of costs and earnings or losses during the course of the work
       are reflected in the accounting period in which the facts which require
       the revision become known.

       Contracts which are substantially complete are considered closed for
       financial statement purposes.  Revenue earned on contracts in progress
       in excess of billings is classified as a current asset.  Amounts billed
       in excess of revenue earned are classified as a current liability.

       OPERATING CYCLE - Assets and liabilities related to long-term contracts
       are included in current assets and current liabilities in the
       accompanying balance sheet as they will be liquidated in the normal
       course of contract completion, although this may require more than one
       year.





                                     - 6 -
<PAGE>   12



       SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - These expenses are
       charged to operations as incurred and are not allocated to contract
       costs.

       ALLOCATION OF INDIRECT MANUFACTURING COSTS - Indirect costs are
       allocated to individual contracts based upon direct labor hours
       incurred.  The difference between actual expenditures for indirect
       manufacturing costs and the amount allocated is charged or credited to
       operations for the current year.

       INVENTORIES - Inventories are valued at the lower of cost, first-in,
       first-out (FIFO) method, or market.

       PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment are recorded at cost.
       Depreciation is provided using primarily accelerated methods over
       periods of five to thirty-two years.  Maintenance and repairs are
       charged to expense as incurred, and renewals and improvements are
       capitalized.

       INCOME TAXES - The Partnership is not a taxable entity for federal and
       state income tax purposes.  Any taxable income or loss and certain other
       items are reported by the partners on their own tax returns in
       accordance with the Partnership Agreement.

       PARTNERS' CAPITAL - Partners share net income and loss in accordance
       with allocations specified in the Partnership Agreement.

       RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain amounts from the prior years have been
       reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

3.     RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

       During the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Partnership
       paid $97,000, $209,000 and $92,000, respectively to certain family
       members of a limited partner for products used in manufacturing.

       During the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Partnership
       incurred $383,915, $384,635 and $132,310, respectively, in
       indemnification fees for performance bonds on certain contracts.  The
       fees were charged by an affiliate of the general partner.

       In addition, the Partnership incurred $123,168, $174,061 and $381,047 in
       1994, 1993 and 1992 for indemnification fees for guarantees made by two
       affiliates of the general partner on certain loan balances and
       commitments with the bank and with the previous owners.

       During 1992, the Partnership sold equipment valued at $275,000 to a
       limited partner under a long-term note agreement which was interest
       bearing at 9-1/2%.  As of December 31, 1993, the Partnership had
       $145,888 outstanding under this note agreement  which was repaid in
       1994.

       As discussed in Note 7, the Partnership also has notes payable to a
       limited partner.

       NOTE TO LIMITED PARTNER:

       The Partnership has a secured revolving note payable to a limited
       partner.  The agreement provided for a credit line not to exceed
       $10,000,000 at a fixed interest rate of 4.75% per annum compounded
       quarterly through July 19, 1993, at which time the note was amended to
       increase the revolving loan to $15,000,000 at a rate of 3.89% per annum
       compounded quarterly.  Another amendment on December 6, 1993 increased
       the loan to $17,500,000.  On January 1, 1994, the note was replaced by a
       secured revolving loan of $25,500,000 at a fixed interest rate of 3.77%
       compounded quarterly, which was then increased to $28,000,000 on
       November 1, 1994.  In January, 1995, the loan was increased to
       $29,500,000, which was fully borrowed by the Partnership.  The debt is
       secured by substantially all of the Partnership's assets and is due
       January 1, 1996.

       SUBORDINATED NOTES:

       In connection with the acquisition of CPC described in Note 1,
       subordinated notes were issued to the sellers.  The notes bear interest
       at the rate of 9%.  Beginning on March 31, 1994, the Partnership is
       required to make quarterly payments of $75,000 for ten years, which are
       guaranteed by an affiliate of the general partner.

       INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS:

       In prior years, the Partnership entered into interest rate swap
       agreements in connection with $15,000,000 of its previously outstanding
       bank debt.  These agreements expire in 1995 and 1998 and require the
       Partnership to pay the difference if the contractual fixed interest
       rates exceed the floating rates as computed under the agreements.  The
       Partnership incurred $650,452 and $794,522 of interest expense in 1994
       and 1993, respectively, under these agreements.

       The estimated fair values of the swap agreements have been determined by
       the Partnership using available market information and appropriate
       valuation methodologies.  At December 31, 1994, management estimates
       that the cost of the swap agreements exceeded their fair value by
       $232,000.

       LOAN AGREEMENT:

       On December 28, 1993, the Partnership entered into a loan agreement with
       the Director of Development of the State of Ohio for $1,322,310 which is
       secured by a bank.  No borrowings occurred under this agreement until
       1994.  The loan is repayable in monthly installments with increasing
       principal payments through 2001.  The loan bears interest at 3% plus a
       service fee of .25% on the outstanding principal.

       CONVERSION OF DEBT TO EQUITY

       During 1992, the Partnership was refinanced and recapitalized by a
       limited partner contributing as additional capital all of its right,
       title and interest in certain loans, including accrued interest of
       $35,602,119.  All previous revolving credit and mortgage loans with a
       bank and all loans from the partners (other than the note to limited
       partner described above) were repaid.

       Approximate aggregate annual principal payments applicable to the
       Partnership's long-term debt for the next five years are as follows:

8.     EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

       The Partnership has a defined benefit pension plan, which covers
       substantially all of the Partnership's employees and provides benefits
       at stated amounts for each year of service.  The Partnership's funding
       policy is to make the annual contributions required by applicable
       federal income tax regulations.  Contributions made to the plan were
       $209,156, $352,805 and $142,099 for the years December 31, 1994, 1993

       The projected benefit obligations were determined using an assumed
       discount rate of 7.5% in 1994 and 1993 and 8% in 1992, a long-term rate
       of return of 8% and a 5% rate of compensation increase.  The
       accumulated benefit obligation at November 30, 1994 of $1,564,369
       includes vested benefits of $1,473,737.

       The Partnership maintains a profit-sharing and savings plan for eligible
       employees.  Employees who participate may contribute up to 10% of their
       earnings to the plan, on which the Partnership contributes 20% as an
       employee match.  The Partnership contributed $82,849, $44,797 and
       $32,105 to the plan in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

       Rental expense was $197,060, $162,418 and $169,716 for the years ended
       December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

10.    CONTINGENCIES

       The Partnership is involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to
       its business.  In the opinion of management, those claims and suits in
       which the Partnership is a defendant in the aggregate will not have a
       material adverse effect on the Partnership's financial position or
       results of operations.

11.    PROVISION FOR CLOSING OF OPERATIONS

       Management decided to close the Partnership's Canadian subsidiary in the
       first quarter of 1992.  Costs incurred in 1992 to close the facility,
       including results of operations subsequent to the decision to close the
       facility were $2,303,000.

12.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

       On May 3, 1995, Chempower, Inc. through two of its wholly-owned
       subsidiaries, purchased all of the issued and outstanding partnership
       units, representing all of the partnership interests of Controlled Power
       Limited Partnership.  The purchase price of $4,900,000 was paid in cash
       at the closing date, at which time the subordinated notes, loan
       agreement, and swap agreements discussed in Note 7 were repaid.

       Effective January 1, 1995, a limited partner contributed as additional
       capital all of its right, title and interest in the note to limited
       partner, as described in Note 7.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following unaudited pro forma financial data has been prepared to reflect
the acquisition of Controlled Power Limited Partnership, a partnership, as if
the transaction had been consummated on the dates indicated.

The unaudited Pro Forma Balance Sheet as of March 31, 1995 reflects the payment
to acquire the partnership units of Controlled Power Limited Partnership and
the resulting purchase price adjustments.

The unaudited Pro Forma Statements of Income for the year ended December 31,
1994 and the three months ended March 31, 1995 are based on the two Companies'
historical results of operations adjusted to give effect to (i) the reduction
in depreciation and amortization expense resulting from the new asset basis as
a result of the acquisition, (ii) the reduction in interest expense charged on
related party notes payable which were contributed to capital in March 1995,
(iii) the decrease in interest income associated with the cash required to
purchase the assets, and (iv) the recording of the income tax benefit as a
result of Controlled Power Limited Partnership having been taxed as a
partnership.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Data is not necessarily indicative of the
Companies' financial position or results of the combined operations had the
transaction reflected therein actually been consummated at the assumed dates,
nor are they necessarily indicative of the Companies' financial position or of
results of combined operations for any future period.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A - BALANCE SHEET PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
- ---------------------------------------

The pro forma balance sheet assumes that the acquisition occurred on March 31,
1995 to give effect to the adjustments described below:

    (1) To adjust the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to their fair
        values, determined as follows:

        (a) Trade receivables adjustment represents the adjustment to net
            present value of amounts expected to be received.

        (b) Contracts in progress adjustment represents an adjustment for a
            reasonable profit allowance for completing contracts assumed.

        (c) The resulting excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over
            cost was used to reduce all long-term assets. The remainder of 
            $860,000 was recorded as excess of net assets acquired over cost
            (negative goodwill).

        (d) The accrued expenses adjustment represents a $450,000 estimated
            cost to fund pension obligations plus $500,000 acquisition costs.


B - STATEMENTS OF INCOME PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
- ----------------------------------------------

The pro forma statements of income give effect to the adjustments described
below:

    (2) To eliminate historical depreciation and amortization expense on
