ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

         On December 31, 1996, Topro, Inc. ("Registrant"), entered into an
Agreement of Merger pursuant to which a newly formed subsidiary will merge
into, and the Registrant will acquire all the outstanding capital stock of All
Control Systems, Inc.("ACSI") and ProMeta Consulting, Inc. ("ProMeta")
(combined collective company "ACS") independent control systems integrators
located in West Chester, PA organized as Subchapter S corporations under the
federal tax code.  ACS's operations are carried out through two affiliated
companies ACS and ProMeta under common ownership.  On the effective date of the
merger the Registrant's subsidiary will merge with ACSI and ProMeta leaving ACS
as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant.  ACS's core business parallels
that of the Registrant's, with emphasis on some different/additional markets
and a generally more technically sophisticated product offering in the food and
pharmaceutical industries.  ACS is focused on the following vertical markets:
food processing, pharmaceutical, and discrete manufacturing.  In accordance
with an Agreement of Merger, the Registrant will acquire all of the outstanding
capital stock of ACS in exchange for 1,800,000 restricted shares of the
Registrant's Common Stock.  The
<PAGE>   3
shares issued under the Agreement of Merger will be held in escrow pending the
effective date of the Registrants Form S-3 currently being reviewed by the SEC
at which time the shares will be released to the ACS shareholders.  The
Agreement of Merger will result in ACS's termination of its Subchapter S
classification creating a deferred tax liability relating to capitalized
software costs deductions previously received by the shareholders.  It is
estimated that the deferred tax liability relating to the capitalized software
assumed by the Registrant will total no more than $340,000.  The Agreement of
Merger provides for future tax liability to be borne one-half by the Registrant
and one-half by the ACS shareholders pro rata according to their respective
pre-merger interest in ACS.  Shares will be held in escrow to satisfy any
incurred tax liability based on a value of $2.25 per share or 151,111 shares.
Such shares will be released in annual installments to former ACS shareholders
at the rate of one share for each $4.50 total reduction (through amortization
of the software costs to earnings) in the capitalized software deferred tax
reflected on the June 30, 1997 audited financial statements of the Registrant.
Such amortization and escrow period shall not exceed five years.  During the
term of this escrow period the ACS shareholders shall have the option to
replace the escrowed shares valued at $2.25 per share with cash or other
collateral acceptable to the Registrant.  Any replacement collateral shall be
released at the same rate as escrowed shares would be released.

         ACS operates from a modern 35,000 square foot facility in West
Chester, PA.  ACS staff currently numbers 65, with over 49 engineers and 4
sales personnel and 12 corporate personnel.  The Registrant intends to continue
the business of ACS, having effected the transaction in order to establish a
market presence for its Control Systems Integration operations in the  regions
served by ACS.

         In connection with the Merger, the past President of ACS, Kevin Fallon
will enter into an employment agreement with the Registrant.  This agreement
and its terms will be finalized prior to the closing date of the Agreement of
Merger, which the Registrant anticipates will be on or before January 18, 1997.

         Prior to this transaction, there was no material relationship between
ACS and the Registrant or any of its affiliates, any director or officer of the
registrant, or any associate of such director or officer.
