     privileges exercisable within 60 days are deemed outstanding for the
     purpose of calculating the number and percentage owned by such person of
     the class, but not deemed outstanding for the purpose of calculating the
     percentage owned of the class by any other person.

     offered for the account of the Selling Shareholders.

                           DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
   
   SECURITIES REGISTERED HEREBY.  On July 11, 1997 Topro, Inc.'s Board of 
Directors resolved to reduce temporarily the exercise price of certain 
outstanding Common Stock Purchase Warrants.  All of the following reductions 
are effective through July 25, 1997; thereafter, the original exercise price 
will remain in effect.  The Board determined that such action was in the best 
interest of the Company in order to provide immediate working capital and 
provide an incentive for immediate exercise of warrants which otherwise might 
not be exercised in advance of expiration dates reaching as far into the 
future as March 2000.  The closing sale price of the Company's Common Stock 
was $2.063 per share on July 10, 1997, the day prior to the adoption of these 
resolutions, and $2.313 per share on July 11, 1997, the day the resolutions 
were adopted.
   
     The Company lowered to an average of $2.85 the exercise price of 200,000 
Warrants issued to a private lender in October 1993, which had been 
exercisable through October 31, 1998 at the following prices: 100,000 at 
$3.375 per share; 50,000 at $3.50 per share, and 50,000 at $3.625 per share.
   
     The Company lowered to $.82 from $1.00 the exercise price of  994,776 
Warrants issued in connection with its March 1995 private placement of 10% 
Senior Convertible Notes.  These Warrants expire on various dates during the 
period May 31, 1998 through March 7, 2000.
