ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
        -------------------------------------

(a)  On June 1, 2000,  Michael Baker  Corporation (the "Company")  completed the
     sale of a wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Baker Support Services, Inc. ("BSSI"),
     to  SKE  International   LLC.  BSSI  primarily   provides   operations  and
     maintenance  services  on U.S.  military  bases  worldwide,  and  had  1999
     revenues totaling $53 million.

     In exchange for 100% of the common stock of BSSI,  the Company has received
     cash  proceeds  totaling  $13,500,000,  and  currently  expects  to receive
     additional cash proceeds totaling  approximately $487,000 by June 30, 2000.
     The total sale price of  $13,987,000  was  determined  through  negotiation
     between the parties. Funds received from this sale were used to pay off all
     debt  previously  payable to Mellon  Bank,  N.A.  under the  Company's  $25
     million credit agreement.

     BSSI's  assets   primarily   comprise  liquid  items  consistent  with  the
     service-oriented  nature  of its  business.  Customer  accounts  receivable
     represented  37% of BSSI's total  assets as of December  31,  1999.  BSSI's
     remaining  assets  primarily  include cash and cash  equivalents,  unbilled
     revenues,   supplies  inventory,   fixed  assets,  goodwill  and  long-term
     investments in operating ventures.

MICHAEL BAKER CORPORATION, EXCLUDING BAKER SUPPORT SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO THE PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET
AS OF MARCH 31, 2000
(UNAUDITED)


1.   These  adjustments  reflect the receipt of adjusted sale proceeds  totaling
     $14,081,000, and the payment of all debt payable to Mellon Bank as of March
     31, 2000 under Baker's  existing  credit  agreement,  with the remainder of
     $3,684,000 representing an addition to cash and cash equivalents.

2.   This  adjustment  represents  the  elimination  of BSSI's net  intercompany
     balances owed to other Baker  affiliates  totaling  $2,501,000,  which were
     included in BSSI's other accrued expenses balance as of March 31, 2000.

3.   These  adjustments  reflect  the  elimination  of BSSI's  common  stock and
     paid-in  capital  balances as of March 31, 2000,  since such  balances were
     already properly eliminated in the Consolidated Baker amounts.

4.   This adjustment  represents the elimination of BSSI's accumulated  deficit,
     which  is  already  included  in the  Consolidated  Baker  amount,  and the
     addition of the gain associated with the sale totaling $1,958,000 (computed
     as of March 31, 2000).

NOTES TO THE PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF INCOME
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999, AND
THE THREE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2000
(UNAUDITED)


1.   This  adjustment  represents  the addback of Corporate  and  Business  Unit
     selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  allocated  to BSSI for the
     period,  under the assumption  that such overhead costs would not have been
     eliminated and therefore would have been  reallocated to other divisions of
     Baker.

2.   This adjustment  represents a reduction of the interest  expense that would
     have been  incurred by Baker due to the assumed  payoff of all debt payable
     to Mellon Bank (as of January 1, 1999) under the credit agreement.

3.   This adjustment  represents the provision  for/(benefit from ) income taxes
     associated  with the  adjustments  included  in  notes 1 and 2 above.  Such
     adjustment is computed based upon an estimated  combined  federal and state
     statutory tax rate of 40%.

4.   In accordance  with the SEC's  guidelines for the  preparation of pro forma
     income statement information, no pro forma adjustment has been included for
     the effect of any additional interest income that have been would have been
     earned  by Baker  after  using  the sale  proceeds  to pay off all its debt
     payable to Mellon Bank, and investing the remainder. Likewise, no pro forma
     adjustment has been included for the effect of the gain associated with the
     sale of BSSI.
