                            The following unaudited pro forma combined financial
                  statements give effect to the  Acquisition  using the purchase
                  method  of  accounting.   The  pro  forma  combined  financial
                  statements are based on the respective  historical audited and
                  unaudited  consolidated financial statements and related notes
                  of the  Company  and  BSNB-NM,  respectively.  The  pro  forma
                  adjustments  are  preliminary  and are  based on  management's
                  estimates of the value of the tangible and  intangible  assets
                  acquired.

                            The pro forma  combined  statement of income for the
                  year ended December 31, 1999 assumes that the Acquisition took
                  place as of January 1, 1999 and combines the Company's audited
                  consolidated  statement of income for the year ended  December
                  31, 1999 with  BSNB-NM's  audited  statement of operations for
                  the year  ended  December  31,  1999.  The pro forma  combined
                  statement  of income for the nine months ended  September  30,
                  2000 assumes that the Acquisition  took place as of January 1,
                  2000  and  combines  the  Company's   unaudited   consolidated
                  statement  of income for the nine months ended  September  30,
                  2000 with BSNB-NM's  unaudited statement of operations for the
                  nine months ended September 30, 2000. The operating results of
                  the acquired  business since the date of the  Acquisition  are
                  included in the Company's unaudited  consolidated statement of
                  income for the nine-months ended September 30, 2000.

                           The pro forma historical condensed balance sheet data
                  of the Company and  BSNB-NM as of September 30, 2000 have been
                  adjusted to eliminate the effects of the Acquisition.  The pro
                  forma  adjustments  to the historical condensed balance  sheet
                  data of the Company and BSNB-NM as of September 30, 2000 gives
                  effect  to the  Acquisition.   The combined condensed  balance
                  sheet  data  reports  the  actual  balances  of the Company as
                  reported  in  the  Company's  Form  10-Q  for the period ended
                  September 30, 2000.

                           On September 20, 2000, the Company acquired , through
                  its  indirect  subsidiary  Blue Sky  Natural  Beverage  Co., a
                  Delaware  corporation  ("BSNBC"),  certain  assets of Blue Sky
                  Natural  Beverage Co., a New Mexico  corporation  ("BSNB-NM"),
                  including the Blue Sky trademarks and certain other assets for
                  a purchase price of $6.5 million (the "Acquisition"). The Blue
                  Sky(R)  products  include  a range of  all-natural  carbonated
                  sodas and  seltzers  that are marketed  throughout  the United
                  States and in certain  international  markets,  principally to
                  the health food trade.  The Acquisition has been accounted for
                  as a purchase in accordance with Accounting  Principles  Board
                  Opinion  No. 16,  "Business  Combinations."  Accordingly,  the
                  purchase price  inclusive of certain  acquisition  costs,  was
                  allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired based
                  on  their   respective   fair   values  at  the  date  of  the
                  Acquisition.   The  purchase   price,   inclusive  of  certain
                  acquisition costs, was financed through the Company's modified
                  line of credit.

                           The purchase price was allocated as follows:

                 (6)     To   record   the   elimination   of   certain  assets,
                         liabilities and  shareholders' equity not acquired from
                         BSNB-NM.
                 (7)     The  historical condensed  balance sheet data presented
                         are  based  of  the  balance sheets  of the Company and
                         BSNB-NM at September 30, 2000 adjusted to eliminate the
                         effects of the Acquisition.


                           In  1997,  the  Company's  wholly-owned   subsidiary,
                  Hansen  Beverage  Company,  obtained  a credit  facility  from
                  Comerica-Bank   California   ("Comerica"),   consisting  of  a
                  revolving  line of credit of up to $3 million in the aggregate
                  at any time  outstanding  and a term loan of $4  million  (the
                  "Credit  Facility").  The  Credit  Facility  was  subsequently
                  modified  from  time  to  time.  In the  third  quarter  ended
                  September 30, 2000,  the Company  entered into a  modification
                  agreement  with Comerica to further amend the Credit  Facility
                  in order to finance the Acquisition, payoff the term loan, and
                  provide   additional   working   capital  (the   "Modification
                  Agreement").  Pursuant  to  the  Modification  Agreement,  the
                  revolving  line of  credit  was  increased  to $12.0  million,
                  reducing to $6.0 million by September 2004. The revolving line
                  of credit remains in full force and effect  through  September
                  2005. Further,  the rate of interest payable by the Company on
                  advances under the line of credit are based on the bank's base
                  (prime) rate,  plus an  additional  amount of up to .5% or the
                  bank's LIBOR rate,  plus an  additional  amount of up to 2.5%,
                  depending  upon certain  financial  ratios of the Company from
                  time to time.

                           The initial use of  proceeds  under the  Modification
                  Agreement  was to pay $6.5  million to  BSNB-NM in  connection
                  with the Acquisition, to payoff the remaining $807,000 balance
                  due under the term loan and to finance  working  capital.  The
