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
1
<PAGE> 2
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.
The transaction described above closed on February 7, 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.

Independent Auditors' Report
All-Control Systems, Inc.
and Affiliate
West Chester, Pennsylvania
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of All-Control
Systems, Inc. and affiliate (Pennsylvania S corporations) as of December 31,
1995 and 1994, and the related combined statements of operations, stockholders'
equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These combined financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined 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 combined financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the combined 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.
As discussed in Note 11, the 1995 financial statements have been revised to
correct the accounting for the forgiveness of certain officers/shareholders
indebtedness.
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly, as revised as described above, in all material respects, the financial
position of All-Control Systems, Inc. and affiliate as of December 31, 1995 and
1994, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years
then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements
================================================================================
1. Description Principles of Combination
of the
Business and The combined financial statements include the
Summary of accounts of All-Control Systems, Inc. ("ACS") and
Significant its affiliate, ProMeta Consulting, Inc.
Accounting ("ProMeta"), together (the "Company"). Both
Policies entities are affiliated through common ownership.
All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated.
Nature of Operations and Significant Customers
The Company is a national organization
specializing in electrical, control and
instrumentation software and information systems
engineering and consulting. During 1995, sales to
one customer accounted for 16% of contract
revenue. One customer accounted for 22% of
contracts receivable as of December 31, 1995.
Such amount is in dispute. The Company feels its
reserves are adequate and will continue to monitor
them as facts and circumstances change. During
1994, sales to three customers accounted for 42%
of contract revenue and two customers accounted
for 27% of contracts receivable as of December 31,
1994.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues earned from fixed price or modified fixed
price automation systems contracts are recognized
on the percentage-of-completion method, measured
by the costs incurred to date as a percentage of
estimated total costs for each contract. Revenues
from cost plus fee contracts are recognized on the
basis of costs incurred during the period plus the
fee earned.
Cost of revenues earned includes all direct
material, labor and subcontract costs related to
the contract performance. Indirect costs, such as
supplies, insurance, depreciation, etc. are
allocated to direct contract costs as incurred,
depending on the prevailing circumstances.
Selling, general and administrative costs are
charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for
estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made
in the period in which such losses are determined.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements
================================================================================
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject
the Company to concentrations of credit risk
consist principally of contracts receivable.
Billed contracts receivable result primarily from
contracts with large manufacturing firms. The
Company reviews a customer's credit history and
obtains an approved contract before commencing
work. The Company generally does not require
collateral from its customers. The Company
reviews engagement status on an ongoing basis and
bills only amounts it believes are realizable
under the terms of the applicable contract.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost.
Depreciation is provided on the straight-line
method over the estimated economic lives of the
assets which range from 3 to 7 years. Assets
acquired under capital leases are recorded at the
lesser of the fair market value or the net present
value of the minimum lease commitments measured at
the inception of the lease. Amortization is
provided on the straight-line method over the
lease terms which range from 2 to 5 years.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts reported in the balance
sheets for cash, contracts receivable, accounts
payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair
value because of the immediate or short-term
maturity of these financial instruments.
Income Taxes
ACS and ProMeta each have elected to be taxed as a
corporation according to the provisions of
Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code and the
Income Tax Code of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, and the stockholders have consented
to include their pro rata share of income or loss
in their individual Federal and state income tax
returns. Accordingly, no provision has been made
for Federal or Pennsylvania income taxes.

================================================================================
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Capitalized Software Costs
The Company incurs expenses related to the
development of software products. These costs
have been capitalized and will be amortized by
using the greater of the ratio of actual current
revenue recognized over the total estimated
revenue or the straight-line method over the
estimated useful life of the software, not to
exceed five years. For the years ended December
31, 1995 and 1994, the Company capitalized
software costs of $413,559 and $298,643.
Amortization of software costs began in 1996 when
the products became commercially viable.
2. Contingencies The Company is party to various legal proceedings
and are subject to various claims arising in the
ordinary course of business. Management believes
that the disposition of these matters will not
have a material effect on the financial position
of the Company.
3. Proposed On December 31, 1996, the Company entered into an
Merger agreement of sale and merger with a wholly-owned
subsidiary of a publicly traded Company to be
effective as of November 30, 1996. The Company's
stockholders will exchange all of their common
stock for 1,800,000 shares of that publicly traded
Company's common stock.

WHEREAS, the parties desire to make certain other modifications to the
Merger Agreement to clarify the understanding of the parties;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
agreements, representations, warranties and covenants contained herein and in
the Merger Agreement, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby
agree as follows:
1. The following introductory sentence hereby is amended to read

THIS AGREEMENT OF MERGER (hereinafter called "Agreement"),
executed as of the 31st day of December, 1996, by and among Topro,
Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Topro"), on its behalf and on behalf of
its wholly- owned subsidiary, Topro ACS Corp., a newly formed
Pennsylvania corporation ("Newco"), All Control Systems, Inc., a
Pennsylvania corporation ("ACS") and ProMeta Consulting, Inc., a
Pennsylvania corporation ("ProMeta").
2. Section 1.1(a) hereby is amended to read as follows:
(a) Newco and ProMeta shall simultaneously be merged with
and into ACS (such transaction hereafter referred to as the "Merger"),
and ACS shall be the surviving corporation in both mergers (the
"Surviving Corporation"). The separate existence and corporate

thereupon ACS, ProMeta and Newco shall be a single corporation.
3. The last sentence under Section 1.1(e) hereby is amended to
read as follows:
<PAGE> 2
However, the effective date of the Merger for accounting purposes
shall be November 30, 1996 (the "Effective Time"), at which time the

such exchange ratio shall only apply to the extent additional ACS
shares are purchased at a minimum price of $2,160 per ACS share.
5. Section 1.5 hereby is amended to read as follows:
Topro shall cause the issuance of the Topro common stock upon

shall, in accordance with Section 1.1(e), cause the Articles of Merger
to be filed with the Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania and ACS, ProMeta, Newco and Topro will take such other
