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
           Benture, 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 of offer sheet metal
           fabrication services.

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 necesarily 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
           long-term assets acquired and to amortize negative goodwill
           associated with the purchase.

       (3) To eliminate interest expense relating to the related party loans
           of the Controlled Power Limited Partnership that were converted
           to equity in March 1995 and investment earnings on the $4.9 million
           purchase price.

       (4) To provide an income tax benefit at a 40% effective rate
           on the pro forma loss of Controlled Power Limited Partnership.
