ITEM 5--OTHER EVENTS
 
INTRODUCTION
 
    U.S. Office Products Company ("USOP" or the "Company") has prepared this
Current Report on Form 8-K to provide information regarding the companies that
are proposed to be spun off from USOP as part of the strategic restructuring
plan (the "Strategic Restructuring Plan") that USOP's Board of Directors (the
"USOP Board") adopted on January 12, 1998.
 
    The principal elements of the Strategic Restructuring Plan are as follows:
(1) a self-tender offer by USOP (the "Tender Offer") to purchase 37,037,037
shares of USOP common stock at $27.00 per share and the incurrence of debt to
pay a substantial portion of the purchase price of the shares in the Tender
Offer; (2) after acceptance of shares in the Tender Offer, the pro rata
distribution to USOP stockholders of shares of four companies (the "Spin-Off
Companies") that will conduct USOP's current print management, technology
solutions, educational supplies and corporate travel services businesses (the
"Distributions"); and (3) following acceptance of shares in the Tender Offer and
the record date for the Distributions, the sale to an affiliate of Clayton,
Dubilier & Rice, Inc. ("CD&R") of equity interests in USOP (the "Equity
Investment"). CD&R will not acquire any equity interest in the Spin-Off
Companies. The Company expects the Strategic Restructuring Plan to be completed
in the second calendar quarter of 1998. The transactions are subject to a number
of conditions, including financing, approval of USOP's shareholders and receipt
of regulatory approvals.
 
    This Report includes a summary of the business of each of the four Spin-Off
Companies and historical and pro forma financial information for each of the
Spin-Off Companies.
 
    The information contained in this Report generally assumes that the
Distributions will be completed. There can be no assurance, however, that the
Distributions will be completed on the terms proposed or at all.
 
                             THE SPIN-OFF COMPANIES
 
    The following are summary business descriptions of the four Spin-Off
Companies:
 
PARADIGM CONCEPTS, INC.
 
    Paradigm is a single-source provider of a broad range of Information
Technology ("IT") business solutions. Paradigm currently consists of ten
companies who have been in business for an average of over 15 years, with a
history of superior client service. These companies offer complementary IT
solutions, which allow Paradigm to be a "one-stop" IT solutions provider in the
Northeast region of the United States, while providing personalized services to
its clients on a regional and local basis. Paradigm's clients include middle
market and Fortune 1000 companies in a wide range of industries (including
communications, health care, financial services, government, manufacturing,
pharmaceuticals, professional services, and technology). In 1997, Paradigm,
which employs over 1,000 people (approximately 65% of whom are technical
professionals), provided services to over 2,000 customers. For the fiscal year
ended April 26, 1997, Paradigm had pro forma revenues of $228.9 million and pro
forma net income of $10.7 million.
 
    With the rapid evolution of technology, the market for IT solutions has
grown significantly. According to industry sources, the United States market for
outsourced IT services is expected to grow from $13 billion in 1996 to
approximately $24 billion in 2001. Although companies recognize the importance
of IT services to their business, they are often unable to keep pace with the
rate of technological change without outsourcing their IT needs. This trend
towards outsourcing has been compounded by the scarcity of technical
professionals in the United States, and has driven the growth of the outsourced
IT solutions industry.
 
                                       1
<PAGE>
    Paradigm's broad range of complementary IT business solutions includes: (i)
consulting and engineering services; (ii) systems and network design and
implementation services; (iii) software development and implementation services;
(iv) IT support and operational services; and (v) telephony design and
integration services. Paradigm is currently providing this broad range of
services in the Northeast region of the United States, and certain of these
services in the other regions of the United States. Paradigm intends to extend
its comprehensive services offerings to the other regions of the United States.
Paradigm is dedicated to delivering IT services and support for all the major
technology needs of its clients, which include a variety of operating systems
(NT, Unix, VMS, Netware, SunOS, Digital Open VMS, and OS/2) on a variety of
hardware platforms (Intel, Sun, HP, and Digital). In addition, Paradigm supports
its clients' hardware and software needs related to the World Wide Web and
high-end telephony services.
 
    For risk factor, management and other information regarding Paradigm, see
Paradigm's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-47501) filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 6, 1998.
 
TDOP, INC.
 
    TDOP, Inc. ("TDOP"), one of the five largest providers of corporate travel
management services in the United States based on airline ticket sales, was
formed by USOP through the acquisition of eleven regional corporate travel
agencies. In calendar year 1997, TDOP booked $1.38 billion in airline ticket
sales, or approximately 2.5 million airline tickets. With locations throughout
the United States, in Canada, and in the United Kingdom, TDOP provides its
corporate customers with the full range of corporate travel management services
through several channels, including on-site travel agencies, regional travel
agency offices and satellite ticket printers. TDOP also provides group and
leisure travel services, largely to its corporate customers.
 
    The travel agency industry in the United States is highly fragmented and
characterized by intense competition. There are more than 30,000 travel agencies
producing an estimated $70 billion in annual airline ticket sales. Airline
ticket sales by travel agencies increased at a rate of approximately 10.5% for
calendar year 1997. The business travel agency industry has undergone
significant changes since 1995, due in part to the reduction in commission
revenues from airline carriers, increasing industry reliance on technology and
the concentration of the industry's customer base. TDOP believes that
significant technological and financial resources are required to compete in
today's corporate travel market, and that larger corporate travel agencies may
therefore have a competitive advantage. Accordingly, TDOP believes the business
travel agency industry is undergoing a period of consolidation and that
significant growth opportunities exist.
 
    TDOP's objective is to be a premier provider of corporate travel management
services to middle market and larger companies in North America and,
increasingly, around the world. TDOP intends to pursue this objective by
implementing the following business strategies: (i) focusing on corporate
travel; (ii) maintaining personalized customer service; (iii) operating with a
decentralized management structure; (iv) achieving operating efficiencies; and
(v) utilizing technology to improve service and reduce costs.
 
    For risk factor, management and other information regarding TDOP, see TDOP's
Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-47503) filed with the SEC on
March 6, 1998.
 
SCHOOL SPECIALTY, INC.
 
    School Specialty, Inc. ("School Specialty") is the largest U.S. distributor
focusing on non-textbook educational supplies and furniture for grades
pre-kindergarten through 12 ("pre-K-12"). School Specialty provides a
comprehensive offering of high quality educational supplies and furniture to
school districts, school administrators and teachers through the broad
distribution of its catalogs. School Specialty distributes general school
supplies, including classroom and art supplies, instruction materials, furniture
and equipment. School Specialty also distributes supplies and furniture for
certain educational disciplines,
 
                                       2
<PAGE>
including early childhood education under the Childcraft name, art supplies
under the Sax Arts & Crafts name and library-related products under the
Gresswell name. In order to broaden its geographic presence and product
offering, School Specialty has acquired 14 companies since May 1996. For the
twelve months ended October 25, 1997, School Specialty's pro forma revenues
aggregated $355.8 million and pro forma net income aggregated $10.2 million,
which represented compound annual increases of 47% and 105%, respectively, over
sales and net income for the year ended December 31, 1994.
 
    With over 32,000 stock keeping units ("SKUs"), School Specialty offers
customers one source for virtually all of their non-textbook school supply and
furniture needs. School Specialty markets its products through an innovative
two-pronged approach, targeting both administrators and teachers to cover the
full spectrum of decision makers. School Specialty's "top down" approach,
utilizing its 290 sales representatives and its School Specialty general supply
and furniture catalog focuses on procurement officials at the state, regional
and local levels, while its "bottom up" approach focuses on curriculum
specialists and teachers. Sales to curriculum specialists and over 2.1 million
teachers are made primarily through the 6.3 million general supply catalogs of
The Re-Print Corp. ("Re-Print") and specialty catalogs that are mailed each
year.
 
    Annual sales of non-textbook educational supplies and equipment to the
school supply market aggregate approximately $6.1 billion, with over $3.6
billion sold to institutions and $2.5 billion sold to consumers, according to
the National School Supply & Equipment Association ("NSSEA"). There are over
3,400 distributors of school supplies, the majority of which are family- or
employee-owned companies with revenues under $20 million that operate in a
single region. School Specialty believes the demand for timely order fulfillment
at competitive prices, combined with the need to invest in automated inventory
and electronic ordering systems, is accelerating the trend toward consolidation
in the industry. School Specialty also believes that it is well positioned to
capitalize on this consolidation as the largest distributor in its industry with
annual revenues which it believes exceed those of its next two largest
competitors combined. Although School Specialty is the largest distributor in
the industry, its share of the $6.1 billion school supply market is less than
6%, giving School Specialty substantial growth opportunities.
 
    For risk factor, management and other information regarding School
Specialty, see School Specialty's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No.
333-47509) filed with the SEC on March 6, 1998.
 
WORKFLOW MANAGEMENT, INC.
 
    Workflow Management, Inc. ("Workflow Management") is an integrated graphic
arts company providing documents, envelopes and commercial printing to more than
22,000 businesses in the United States and Canada. Workflow Management also
offers various print and facilities management services, which allow customers
to realize cost savings by outsourcing non-core operations, as well as design
services and workflow analysis. Drawing on its position in the industry and its
experience in completing acquisitions, Workflow Management seeks to become a
leading consolidator in the highly-fragmented graphic arts industry. In the last
ten years, Workflow Management's senior management team successfully completed
the acquisition of 16 companies for Standard Forms, Inc., the predecessor to
SFI. Since the acquisition of SFI and Hano by the Print Management Division of
USOP in January 1997, that same senior management team has continued its
acquisition strategy by successfully buying six additional companies. As a
result, Workflow Management has grown its revenues and operating income from
approximately $115.1 million and $6.7 million, respectively, for the year ended
December 31, 1996, to annualized revenues and operating income of approximately
$358.1 million and $21.7 million, respectively, for the twelve months ended
October 25, 1997, on a pro forma basis (which is double the six-month revenues
and income for the six months ended October 25, 1997). Workflow Management
currently has over 2,000 employees and has 17 manufacturing facilities in seven
states and five Canadian Provinces, 26 distribution centers, eight print-
on-demand centers and 59 sales offices. Workflow Management intends to continue
to pursue its aggressive acquisition strategy to extend its geographic scope and
market penetration, and to increase sales to existing customers by cross-selling
documents, envelopes and commercial printing.
 
                                       3
<PAGE>
    The document, envelope and commercial printing industries that comprise the
graphic arts businesses are highly fragmented, and Workflow Management believes
they are ripe for consolidation. According to the Document Management Industries
Association, the market for documents was approximately $12.7 billion in 1996,
up from $11.1 billion in 1993. The U.S. market for envelopes, as measured by the
Envelope Manufacturers Association, was approximately $3.0 billion in 1996,
compared to $2.7 billion in 1993. According to the Printing Industries of
America trade association, the general commercial segment of the U.S. printing
industry shipped more than $88 billion of products in 1996, an increase of 8%
over 1995. Workflow Management believes there are 15,000 print distribution
companies operating in the documents industry. Within the envelope industry,
management believes there are approximately 200 envelope manufacturers in the
United States, and a much larger number of regional and local custom and
specialty envelope printers and distributors. The commercial printing industry
is composed of over 25,000 printing plants, 70% of which have fewer than 10
employees.
 
    Workflow Management offers a full range of printed products which are either
manufactured by Workflow Management or procured from one of Workflow
Management's more than 3,500 vendors. Workflow Management's product line
includes: (i) documents, such as custom invoices, purchase orders, checks and
labels; (ii) envelopes, including specialty envelopes for uses such as credit
card solicitations, annual reports, direct mail and airline tickets; and (iii)
commercial printing, such as product and corporate brochures, personalized
direct mail literature, catalogs, directories and digital imaging. Workflow
Management's manufacturing base, combined with its extensive vendor network and
distribution capability, gives Workflow Management broad flexibility to meet
customers' demands for printed products. For the six months ended October 25,
1997, approximately 56.2% of its revenues were derived from products purchased
by Workflow Management for distribution, and 43.8% were derived from products
manufactured by Workflow Management.

Management, please see Workflow Management's Registration Statement on Form S-1
(File No. 333-47505) filed with the SEC on March 6, 1998.

    The unaudited pro forma financial statements give effect to the spin-off of
Workflow Management, Inc. (the "Company"), formerly the Print Management
Division of U.S. Office Products Company ("U.S. Office Products"), through the
distribution of shares of the Company to U.S. Office Products shareholders (the
"Distribution") and probable and completed acquisitions through February 13,
1998.
 
    The pro forma combined balance sheet gives effect to the Distribution and
the probable acquisition of Astrid Offset Corporation as if both transactions
had occurred as of the Company's most recent balance sheet date, October 25,
1997. The pro forma combined statements of income for the fiscal year ended
April 26, 1997 and the six months ended October 25, 1997 and October 26, 1996
give effect to the Distribution and the acquisitions of Astrid Offset
Corporation and FMI Graphics, Inc., an individually insignificant company, in
business combinations accounted for under the purchase method which have been
completed or are probable during the fiscal year ending April 25, 1998 (the
"Fiscal 1998 Purchase Acquisition"), as if all such transactions had occurred on
May 1, 1996.
 
    The pro forma combined statement of income for the year ended April 26, 1997
includes the audited financial information of the Company for the year ended
April 26, 1997 and the unaudited financial information of the Fiscal 1998
Purchase Acquisition for the period from May 1, 1996 through April 26, 1997.
 
    The pro forma combined statement of income for the six months ended October
25, 1997 includes the unaudited financial information of the Company and the
Fiscal 1998 Purchase Acquisition for the six months ended October 25, 1997.
 
    The pro forma combined statement of income for the six months ended October
26, 1996 includes the unaudited financial information of the Company and the
Fiscal 1998 Purchase Acquisition for the six months ended October 26, 1996
 
    The historical financial statements of the Company give retroactive effect
to the results of the seven companies acquired by the Company during the fiscal
year ended April 26, 1997 in business combinations accounted for under the
pooling-of-interests method of accounting.
 
    The historical financial statements of the Company also reflect an allocated
portion of general and administrative costs incurred by U.S. Office Products.
The allocated costs include expenses such as: certain corporate executives'
salaries, accounting and legal fees, departmental costs for accounting, finance,
legal, purchasing, marketing and human resources, as well as other general
overhead costs. These corporate overheads have been allocated to the Company
using one of several factors, dependent on the nature of the costs being
allocated, including revenues, number and size of acquisitions and number of
employees.
 
    The pro forma adjustments are based upon preliminary estimates, available
information and certain assumptions that management deems appropriate. The
unaudited pro forma combined financial data presented herein does not purport to
represent what the Company's financial position or results of operations would
have been had the transactions which are the subject of pro forma adjustments
occurred on those dates, as assumed, and are not necessarily representative of
the Company's financial position or results of operations in any future period.
The pro forma combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the other financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this
Current Report on Form 8-K.

1. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED BALANCE SHEET ADJUSTMENTS
 
    (a) Adjustment to reflect purchase price adjustments associated with the
acquisition of Astrid Offset Corporation ("Astrid"). The acquisition of Astrid
will be initially funded by U.S. Office Products, accordingly, an adjustment has
been made to increase the long-term payable to U.S. Office Products by $13,200.
The portion of the consideration assigned to goodwill ($11,082) in this
transaction, which was accounted for under the purchase method, represents the
excess of the cost over the fair market value of the net assets acquired. The
Company amortizes goodwill over a period of 40 years. The recoverability of the
unamortized goodwill will be assessed on an ongoing basis by comparing
anticipated undiscounted future cash flows from operations to net book value.
 
    (b) Represents payment of debt of $797 and forgiveness of $23,729 of debt
due to U.S. Office Products as U.S. Office Products agreed to allocate only
$44,722 of the total debt payable to U.S. Office Products by the Company at the
date of the Distribution. The $23,729 of debt forgiven has been reflected as a
contribution of capital to the Company by U.S. Office Products.
 
2. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME ADJUSTMENTS
 
    (c) Adjustment to reflect the elimination of revenues and cost of revenues
on transactions between Astrid Offset and the Company.
 
    (d) Adjustment to reflect reductions in executive compensation as a result
of the elimination of certain executive positions and the renegotiations of
executive compensation agreements resulting from certain acquisitions.
 
    (e) Adjustment to reflect additional corporate overhead during the period
prior to the formation of the Print Management division by U.S. Office Products
as if the division had been formed on May 1, 1996.
 
    (f) Adjustment to reflect the increase in amortization expense relating to
goodwill recorded in purchase accounting related to the Fiscal 1998 Purchase
Acquisitions for the periods prior to the respective dates of acquisition. The
Company has recorded goodwill amortization in the historical financial
statements from the respective dates of acquisition forward. The goodwill is
being amortized over an estimated life of 40 years.
 
    (g) Adjustment to reflect the reduction in non-recurring acquisition costs
related to pooling-of-interests business combinations of $5,006 for the fiscal
year ended April 26, 1997.
 
    (h) Adjustment to reflect the reduction in interest expense and interest
income resulting from the forgiveness of $23,729 of debt by U.S. Office
Products.
 
    (i) Adjustment to calculate the provision for income taxes on the combined
pro forma results at an effective income tax rate of approximately 41%. The
difference between the effective tax rate of 41% and the statutory tax rate of
35% relates primarily to state income taxes and non-deductible goodwill.
 
    (j) The weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate pro forma
earnings per share is based upon 95,963 shares of common stock outstanding for
the periods. This is based upon the most current number of shares of common
stock of U.S. Office Products outstanding of 133,000 less 37,037 shares expected
to be repurchased by U.S. Office Products in the Tender Offer, and assumes a
distribution ratio of one share of Company Common Stock for each share of U.S.
Office Products Common Stock. The

    In our opinion, based upon our audits and the reports of other auditors, the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements
of income, of stockholder's equity and of cash flows present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Workflow Management, Inc. (the
"Company") and its subsidiaries at April 30, 1996 and April 26, 1997, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1995, the four months ended April 30, 1996 and the fiscal year
ended April 26, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of
Hano Document Printers, Inc. ("Hano"), United Envelope Co., Inc. and its
affiliate, Rex Envelope Co. Inc. ("United") and Huxley Envelope Corporation
("Huxley"), wholly-owned subsidiaries, which statements reflect total revenues
for the year ended December 31, 1995 of $31,299,000, $81,917,000 and
$18,868,000, respectively. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose
reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein,
insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Hano, United and Huxley, is
based solely on the reports of the other auditors. We conducted our audits of
these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of
other auditors provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

    We have audited the combined balance sheets of United Envelope Co., Inc. and
its affiliate, Rex Envelope Co., Inc., as at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related combined statements of income and retained earnings and cash flows for
the years then ended (not presented separately herein). These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
    As referred to in Note A on "Principles of Combination," the companies,
whose financial statements are combined, are related through common ownership
and control. In addition, each has pledged certain assets and guaranteed
long-term indebtedness of the other as described in the notes to financial
statements. In view of their close operating and financial relationship, the
preparation of combined financial statements was considered appropriate. The
combined statements, however, do not refer to a legal entity and neither of the
companies guarantees trade obligations of the other.
 
    In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of United
Envelope Co., Inc. and its affiliates as at 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.

then ended (not presented separately herein). These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these 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 financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the 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.
 
    In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Huxley Envelope Corporation
as at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
 
NOTE 1--BACKGROUND
 
    Workflow Management, Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation which is
a wholly-owned subsidiary of U.S. Office Products Company ("U.S. Office
Products"). On January 13, 1998, U.S. Office Products announced its intention to
spin-off its Print Management Division as an independent publicly owned company.
This transaction is expected to be effected through the distribution of shares
of the Company to U.S. Office Products shareholders effective on or about April
25, 1998 (the "Distribution"). Prior to the Distribution, U.S. Office Products
plans to contribute its equity interests in certain wholly-owned subsidiaries
associated with U.S. Office Products' Print Management Division to the Company.
U.S. Office Products and the Company will enter into a number of agreements to
facilitate the Distribution and the transition of the Company to an independent
business enterprise.
 
    The Print Management Division was created by U.S. Office Products in January
1997 and completed seven business combinations accounted for under the
pooling-of-interests method during the period from January 1997 to April 1997
(the "Pooled Companies"). As a result of these business combinations being
accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method, the results of the Company
prior to the completion of such business combinations represent the combined
results of the Pooled Companies operating as separate autonomous entities.
 
NOTE 2--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The consolidated financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities,
divisional equity, revenues and expenses that were directly related to the
Company as it was operated within U.S. Office Products. In cases involving
assets and liabilities not specifically identifiable to any particular business
of U.S. Office Products, only those assets and liabilities expected to be
transferred to the Company prior to the Distribution were included in the
Company's separate consolidated balance sheet. With the exception of interest
expense, the Company's statement of income includes all of the related costs of
doing business including an allocation of certain general corporate expenses of
U.S. Office Products which were not directly related to these businesses
including certain corporate executives' salaries, accounting and legal fees,
departmental costs for accounting, finance, legal, purchasing, marketing, human
resources as well as other general overhead costs. These allocations were based
on a variety of factors, dependent upon the nature of the costs being allocated,
including revenues, number and size of acquisitions and number of employees.
Management believes these allocations were made on a reasonable basis.
 
    U.S. Office Products uses a centralized approach to cash management and the
financing of its operations. As a result, minimal amounts of cash and cash
equivalents and an agreed upon amount of debt will be allocated to the Company
at the time of the Distribution. The consolidated statement of income does not
include an allocation of interest expense on all debt allocated to the Company.
See Note 7 for further discussion of interest expense.
 
NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
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 the
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.

NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR
 
    Prior to their respective dates of acquisition by U.S. Office Products, the
Pooled Companies reported results on years ending on December 31. Upon
acquisition by U.S. Office Products and effective for the fiscal year ended
April 26, 1997 ("fiscal 1997"), the Pooled Companies changed their year-ends
from December 31 to conform to U.S. Office Products' fiscal year, which ends on
the last Saturday in April. A four month fiscal transition period from January
1, 1996 through April 30, 1996 has been presented for the Company to conform its
fiscal year-end.
 
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and
accounts are eliminated in consolidation.
 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
    The Company considers temporary cash investments with original maturities of
three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
 
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
 
    Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable.
Receivables arising from sales to customers are not collateralized and, as a
result, management continually monitors the financial condition of its customers
to reduce the risk of loss.
 
INVENTORIES
 
    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined
on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis and consist primarily of products held for
sale.
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
    Property and equipment is stated at cost. Additions and improvements are
capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of
property and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The estimated useful lives
range from 25 to 40 years for buildings and its components and 3 to 15 years for
furniture, fixtures and equipment. Property and equipment leased under capital
leases is being amortized over the lesser of its useful life or its lease terms.
 
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
    Intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill, which represents the excess
of cost over the fair value of assets acquired in business combinations
accounted for under the purchase method, and non-compete agreements.
Substantially all goodwill is amortized on a straight line basis over an
estimated useful life of 40 years. Management periodically evaluates the
recoverability of goodwill, which would be adjusted for a permanent decline in
value, if any, by comparing anticipated undiscounted future cash flows from

NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
operations to net book value. Intangible assets associated with non-compete
agreements are being amortized over their respective terms.
 
TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES
 
    Balance sheet accounts of foreign subsidiaries are translated using the
year-end exchange rate, and statement of income accounts are translated using
the average exchange rate for the year. Translation adjustments are recorded as
a separate component of stockholders' equity.
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
    The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments including cash
and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair
value.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
    As a division of U.S. Office Products, the Company does not file separate
federal income tax returns but rather is included in the federal income tax
returns filed by U.S. Office Products and its subsidiaries from the respective
dates that the entities within the Company were acquired by U.S. Office
Products. For purposes of the consolidated financial statements, the Company's
allocated share of U.S. Office Products' income tax provision was based on the
"separate return" method. Certain companies acquired in pooling-of-interests
transactions elected to be taxed as Subchapter S corporations, and accordingly,
no federal income taxes were recorded by those companies for periods prior to
their acquisition by U.S. Office Products.
 
TAXES ON UNDISTRIBUTED EARNINGS
 
    No provision is made for U.S. income taxes on earnings of the Company's
Canadian subsidiary company which the Company controls but does not include in
the consolidated federal income tax return since it is management's practice and
intent to permanently reinvest the earnings of this subsidiary.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
    Revenue is recognized upon the delivery of products or upon the completion
of services provided to customers as no additional obligations to the customers
exist. Returns of the Company's product are considered immaterial.
 
COST OF REVENUES
 
    Vendor rebates are recognized on an accrual basis in the period earned and
are recorded as a reduction to cost of revenues. Delivery and occupancy costs
are included in cost of revenues.
 
NON-RECURRING ACQUISITION COSTS
 
    Non-recurring acquisition costs represent acquisition costs incurred by the
Company in business combinations accounted for under the pooling-of-interests
method. These costs include accounting, legal, and investment banking fees, real
estate and environmental assessments and appraisals, various regulatory fees and
recognition of transaction related obligations. Generally accepted accounting
principles require

NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
the Company to expense all acquisition costs (both those paid by the Company and
those paid by the sellers of the acquired companies) related to business
combinations accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method.
 
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." This
Statement establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share
("EPS"). SFAS 128 simplifies the standards for computing EPS and makes the
presentation comparable to international EPS standards by replacing the
presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS. It also requires
dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement.
Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to
common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding
for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if
securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted
into common stock. The Company intends to adopt SFAS No. 128 in the fiscal year
ended April 25, 1998. The implementation of SFAS No. 128 is not expected to have
a material effect on the Company's earnings per share as determined under
current accounting rules. Historical earnings per share has not been presented
as such amounts are not deemed meaningful due to the significant change in the
Company's capital structure that will occur on the consummation of the
Distribution.
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income." SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses)
in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires
that all items that are required to be recgonized under accounting standards as
components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is
displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. SFAS No. 130
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided for
comparative purposes is required. The Company intends to adopt SFAS No. 130 in
fiscal 1999.
 
UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL DATA
 
    In the opinion of management, the Company has made all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation
of the financial condition of the Company as of October 25, 1997 and the results
of operations and of cash flows for the six months ended October 26, 1996 and
October 25, 1997, as presented in the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial data.
 
NOTE 4--BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
 
POOLING-OF-INTERESTS METHOD
 
    In fiscal 1997, the Company issued U.S. Office Products common stock to
acquire the Pooled Companies. The Company's consolidated financial statements
give retroactive effect to the acquisitions of the Pooled Companies for all
periods presented. Prior to being acquired by U.S. Office Products, the Pooled
Companies all reported on years ending on December 31. Upon completion of the
acquisitions of the Pooled Companies, their year-ends were changed to U.S.
Office Products' year-end of the last Saturday in April.

NOTE 7--CREDIT FACILITIES (CONTINUED)
PAYABLE TO U.S. OFFICE PRODUCTS
 
    The long-term payable to U.S. Office Products primarily represents payments
made by U.S. Office Products on behalf of the Company and a reasonable
allocation by U.S. Office Products of certain general corporate expenses. No
interest has been allocated to the Company on the outstanding payable. An
analysis of the activity in this account is as follows:
 
<TABLE>
<S>                                                                  <C>

                                                                     ---------
Balance at April 26, 1997..........................................  $  20,891
                                                                     ---------
                                                                     ---------
</TABLE>
 
    The average outstanding long-term payable to U.S. Office Products during the
fiscal year ended April 26, 1997 was $1,775.
 
    U.S. Office Products has charged the Company interest on the short-term
payable to U.S. Office Products at the prime rate in effect at the time. The
short-term payable to U.S. Office Products was incurred by the Company primarily
as a result of U.S. Office Products repaying short-term debt outstanding at the
businesses acquired by U.S. Office Products at or soon after the respective
dates of acquisition and through the centralized cash management system, which
involves daily advances or sweeps of cash to keep the cash balance at or near
zero on a daily basis. U.S. Office Products has not charged the Company interest
on the long-term payable to U.S. Office Products. The Company's financial
statements include allocations of interest expense from U.S. Office Products
totaling $266 during the year ended April 26, 1997. If the Company had been
charged interest on all debt allocated by U.S. Office Products during fiscal
1997, interest expense would have totaled $393.
 
    The Company expects that the Distribution Agreement with U.S. Office
Products will call for an allocation of $44.7 million of debt by U.S. Office
Products resulting in the forgiveness of $23.7 million of debt at October 25,
1997, which would be reflected in the financial statements as a contribution of
capital by U.S. Office Products. The Company intends to enter into a credit
facility concurrently with the Distribution which will contain certain financial
and other covenants, including maintenance of certain financial tests and
ratios, limitations on capital expenditures and restrictions on the incurrence
of debt or liens, the sale of assets, the payment of dividends, transactions
with affiliates and other transactions.

    Certain Pooled Companies were organized as subchapter S corporations prior
to the closing of their acquisitions by the Company and, as a result, the
federal tax on their income was the responsibility of their individual
stockholders. Accordingly, the specific Pooled Companies provided no federal
income tax expense prior to these acquisitions by the Company.
 
    The following unaudited pro forma income tax information is presented in
accordance with SFAS 109 as if the specific Pooled Companies had been subject to
federal income taxes for the entire periods presented.

NOTE 10--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
LITIGATION
 
    The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the
normal course of its business. Management believes that none of this litigation
will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company.
 
POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
 
    The Company has entered into employment agreements with several employees
that would result in payments to these employees upon a change of control or
certain other events. No amounts have been accrued at April 30, 1996 or April
26, 1997 related to these agreements, as no change of control has occurred.
 
DISTRIBUTION
 
    On or immediately after the Distribution, the Company expects to have a
credit facility in place. The terms of the credit facility are expected to
contain customary covenants including financial covenants. The Company plans to
use a portion of the proceeds from the credit facility to repay certain amounts
payable to U.S. Office Products.
 
    On or before the date of the Distribution, the Company, U.S. Office Products
and the other Spin-Off Companies will enter into the Distribution Agreement, the
Tax Allocation Agreement, and the Employee Benefits Agreement, and the Spin-Off
Companies will enter into the Tax Indemnification Agreement, and

NOTE 10--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
may enter into other agreements, including agreements relating to referral of
customers to one another. These agreements are expected to provide, among other
things, for U.S. Office Products and the Company to indemnify each other from
tax and other liabilities relating to their respective businesses prior to and
following the Workflow Distribution. Certain of the obligations of the Company
and the other Spin-Off Companies to indemnify U.S. Office Products are joint and
several. Therefore, if one of the other Spin-Off Companies fails to satisfy its
indemnification obligations to U.S. Office Products when such a loss occurs, the
Company may be required to reimburse U.S. Office Products for all or a portion
of the losses that otherwise would have been allocated to other Spin-Off
Companies. In addition, the agreements will allocate liabilities, including
general corporate and securities liabilities of U.S. Office Products not
specifically related to the Company's business, between U.S. Office Products and
each Spin-Off Company.
 
NOTE 11--EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
 
    Effective September 1, 1996, the Company implemented the U.S. Office
Products 401(k) Retirement Plan (the "401(k) Plan") which allows employee
contributions in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Company matches a portion of employee contributions and all full-time
employees are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan after one year of
service.
 
    Certain subsidiaries of the Company have, or had prior to implementation of
the 401(k) Plan, qualified defined contribution benefit plans, which allow for
voluntary pre-tax contributions by the employees. The subsidiaries paid all
general and administrative expenses of the plans and in some cases made matching
contributions on behalf of the employees. For 1994, 1995, the four months ended
April 30, 1996 and fiscal 1997, the subsidiaries incurred expenses totaling
$444, $602, $179 and $481, respectively, related to these plans.
 
NOTE 12--STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY
 
EMPLOYEE STOCK PLANS
 
    Prior to the Distribution, certain employees of the Company participated in
the U.S. Office Products 1994 Long-Term Incentive Plan covering employees of
U.S. Office Products. U.S. Office Products, as the sole stockholder of the
Company prior to distribution, has approved a new stock option plan for the
Company. Upon Distribution, the Company expects to replace the options to
purchase shares of common stock of U.S. Office Products held by employees with
options to purchase shares of common stock of the Company. At April 26, 1997,
there were approximately 402,290 options to purchase shares of U.S. Office
Products common stock held by Company employees.
 
    Under the Ledecky Services Agreement, the Board of Directors of U.S. Office
Products has agreed that Mr. Ledecky will receive a stock option for Company
Common Stock from the Company as of the date of the Distribution. The Board
intends the option to be compensation for Mr. Ledecky's services as a director
of the Company, and certain services as an employee of the Company. The option
will cover up to 7.5% of the outstanding Company Common Stock determined as of
the date of the Distribution, with no anti-dilution provisions in the event of
issuance of additional shares of Common Stock (other than with respect to stock
splits or reverse stock splits). The option will have a per share exercise price
equal to the price of the first trade on the day the Company's Common Stock is
first publicly traded.

NOTE 15--SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
    On January 13, 1998, U.S. Office Products announced its intention to
complete the Distribution described in Note 1. In addition, subsequent to April
26, 1997, the Company has completed one business combination accounted for under
the purchase method in exchange for U.S. Office Products common stock with a
market value on the date of acquisition of approximately $2,112. The results of

    The following presents the unaudited pro forma results of operations of the
Company for fiscal 1997 as if the Distribution and acquisition described above
and one probable purchase acquisition had been consummated as of the beginning

executive compensation and the inclusion of a federal income tax provision on
all earnings:

Re-Print Corporation which were acquired by the Education Division during the
fiscal year ended April 26, 1997 in business combinations accounted for under
the pooling-of-interests method of accounting.
 
    The historical financial statements of the Company also reflect an allocated
portion of general and administrative costs incurred by U.S. Office Products.
The allocated costs include expenses such as: certain corporate executives'
salaries, accounting and legal fees, departmental costs for accounting, finance,
legal, purchasing, marketing and human resources, as well as other general
overhead costs. These corporate overheads have been allocated to the Company
using one of several factors, dependent on the nature of

the costs being allocated, including, revenues, number and size of acquisitions
and number of employees. Although the Company expects that it will incur some
additional corporate management and other costs in connection with being an
independent public company, management does not expect such costs to exceed the
allocated corporate overheads reflected in the historical financial statements.
Accordingly, neither the elimination of the allocated corporate overheads nor
the anticipated costs have been included in the pro forma combined financial
information of the Company.
 
    The pro forma adjustments are based upon preliminary estimates, available
information and certain assumptions that management deems appropriate. The
unaudited pro forma combined financial data presented herein does not purport to
represent what the Company's financial position or results of operations would
have been had the transactions which are the subject of pro forma adjustments
occurred on those dates, as assumed, and are not necessarily representative of
the Company's financial position or results of operations in any future period.
The pro forma combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the other financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this
Current Report on Form 8-K.

                NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
                    (DOLLARS AND SHARE AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)
 
1. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED BALANCE SHEET ADJUSTMENTS
 
(a) Adjustment to reflect purchase price adjustments associated with
    acquisitions of American Academic. The portion of the consideration assigned
    to goodwill ($18,325) in the transaction accounted for under the purchase
    method represents the excess of the cost over the fair market value of the
    net assets acquired. The Company amortizes goodwill over a period of 40
    years. The recoverability of the unamortized goodwill will be assessed on an
    ongoing basis by comparing anticipated undiscounted future cash flows from
    operations to net book value.
 
(b) Represents payment of debt of $10 and forgiveness of $86,725 of debt due to
    U.S. Office Products as U.S. Office Products agreed to allocate only $80,000
    of debt to the Company at the date of the Distribution. The $86,725 of net
    debt forgiven has been reflected as a contribution of capital to the Company
    by U.S. Office Products.
 
2. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME ADJUSTMENTS
 
(c) Adjustment to reflect reductions in executive compensation as a result of
    the elimination of certain executive positions and the renegotiations of
    executive compensation agreements resulting from certain acquisitions.
 
(d) Adjustment to reflect the increase in amortization expense relating to
    goodwill recorded in purchase accounting related to the Fiscal 1997 and
    Fiscal 1998 Purchase Acquisitions for the periods prior to the respective
    dates of acquisition. The Company has recorded goodwill amortization in the
    historical financial statements from the respective dates of acquisition
    forward. The goodwill is being amortized over an estimated life of 40 years.
 
(e) Adjustment to reflect the reduction in non-recurring acquisition costs
    related to pooling-of-interests business combinations of $1,792 for the
    fiscal year ended April 26, 1997 and $1,792 for the six months ended October
    26, 1996.
 
(f) Adjustment to reflect the increase in interest expense as a result of U.S.
    Office Products allocating $80,000 of debt to the Company. Although U.S.
    Office Products forgave $86,725 of debt due from the Company, U.S. Office
    Products had not historically charged the Company interest on any portion of
    the long-term debt payable to U.S. Office Products.
 
(g) Adjustment to calculate the provision for income taxes on the combined pro
    forma results at an effective income tax rate of approximately 46%. The
    difference between the effective tax rate of 46% and the statutory tax rate
    of 35% relates primarily to state income taxes and non-deductible goodwill.
 
(h) The weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate pro forma earnings
    per share is based upon 95,963 shares of common stock outstanding for the
    periods. This is based upon the most current number of shares of common
    stock of U.S. Office Products outstanding of 133,000 less 37,037 shares
    expected to be repurchased by U.S. Office Products in the Tender Offer, and
    assumes a distribution ratio of one share of School Specialty Common Stock
    for each share of U.S. Office Products Common Stock. The actual distribution
    ratio will be determined prior to consummation of the Distribution, and is
    expected to be less than one share of School Specialty Common Stock for
    every one share of U.S. Office Products Common Stock.

auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it

of the other auditors.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
 
NOTE 1--BACKGROUND
 
    School Specialty, Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation which is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of U.S. Office Products Company ("U.S. Office
Products"). On January 13, 1998, U.S. Office Products announced its intention to
spin-off its Educational Supplies and Products Division as an independent
publicly owned company. This transaction is expected to be effected through the
distribution of shares of the Company to U.S. Office Products' shareholders
effective on or about April 25, 1998 (the "Distribution"). Prior to the
Distribution, U.S. Office Products plans to contribute its equity interests in
certain wholly-owned subsidiaries associated with the Education Division to the
Company. U.S. Office Products and the Company will enter into a number of
agreements to facilitate the Distribution and the transition of the Company to
an independent business enterprise.
 
    The Education Division was created by U.S. Office Products in May 1996 in
connection with the acquisition of School Specialty, Inc., a Wisconsin
corporation ("Old School"). This business combination and the acquisition in
July 1996 of the Re-Print Corp. ("Re-Print") were accounted for under the
pooling-of-interests method (Old School and Re-Print are herein referred to as
the "Pooled Companies"). As a result of these business combinations being
accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method, the results of the Company
prior to the completion of such business combinations represent the combined
results of the Pooled Companies operating as separate autonomous entities.
 
NOTE 2--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The consolidated financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities,
divisional equity, revenues and expenses that were directly related to the
Company as it was operated within U.S. Office Products. In cases involving
assets and liabilities not specifically identifiable to any particular business
of U.S. Office Products, only those assets and liabilities expected to be
transferred to the Company prior to the Distribution were included in the
Company's separate consolidated balance sheet. With the exception of interest
expense, the Company's statement of income includes all of the related costs of
doing business including an allocation of certain general corporate expenses of
U.S. Office Products which were not directly related to these businesses
including certain corporate executives' salaries, accounting and legal fees,
departmental costs for accounting, finance, legal, purchasing, marketing, human
resources as well as other general overhead costs. These allocations were based
on a variety of factors, dependent upon the nature of the costs being allocated,
including revenues, number and size of acquisitions and number of employees.
Management believes these allocations were made on a reasonable basis.
 
    U.S. Office Products uses a centralized approach to cash management and the
financing of its operations. As a result, minimal amounts of cash and cash
equivalents and an agreed upon amount of debt will be allocated to the Company
at the time of the Distribution. The consolidated statement of income does not
include an allocation of interest expense on all debt allocated to the Company.
See Note 9 for further discussion of interest expense.
 
NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
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 the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and

                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
 
NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR
 
    Prior to their respective dates of acquisition by U.S. Office Products, the
Pooled Companies reported results on years ending on December 31. Upon
acquisition by U.S. Office Products and effective for the fiscal year ended
April 26, 1997 ("fiscal 1997"), the Pooled Companies changed their year-ends
from December 31 to conform to U.S. Office Products' fiscal year, which ends on
the last Saturday in April. A four month fiscal transition period from January
1, 1996 through April 30, 1996 has been presented for the Company to conform its
fiscal year-end.
 
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and
accounts are eliminated in consolidation.
 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
    The Company considers temporary cash investments with original maturities of
three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
 
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
 
    Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable.
Receivables arising from sales to customers are not collateralized and, as a
result, management continually monitors the financial condition of its customers
to reduce the risk of loss.
 
INVENTORIES
 
    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined
on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis and consist primarily of products held for
sale.
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
    Property and equipment is stated at cost. Additions and improvements are
capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of
property and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The estimated useful lives
range from 25 to 40 years for buildings and its components and 3 to 15 years for
furniture, fixtures and equipment. Property and equipment leased under capital
leases is being amortized over the lesser of its useful life or its lease terms.

                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
 
NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
    Intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill, which represents the excess
of cost over the fair value of assets acquired in business combinations
accounted for under the purchase method, franchise agreements and non-compete
agreements. Substantially all goodwill is amortized on a straight line basis
over an estimated useful life of 40 years. Management periodically evaluates the
recoverability of goodwill, which would be adjusted for a permanent decline in
value, if any, by comparing anticipated undiscounted future cash flows from
operations to net book value. Intangible assets associated with non-compete
agreements are being amortized over their respective terms.
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
    The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments including cash
and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair
value.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
    As a division of U.S. Office Products, the Company does not file separate
federal income tax returns but rather is included in the federal income tax
returns filed by U.S. Office Products and its subsidiaries from the respective
dates that the entities within the Company were acquired by U.S. Office
Products. For purposes of the consolidated financial statements, the Company's
allocated share of U.S. Office Products' income tax provision was based on the
"separate return" method. Certain companies acquired in pooling-of-interests
transactions elected to be taxed as Subchapter S corporations, and accordingly,
no federal income taxes were recorded by those companies for periods prior to
their acquisition by U.S. Office Products.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
    Revenue is recognized upon the delivery of products or upon the completion
of services provided to customers as no additional obligations to the customers
exist. Returns of the Company's product are considered immaterial.
 
COST OF REVENUES
 
    Vendor rebates are recognized on an accrual basis in the period earned and
are recorded as a reduction to cost of revenues. Delivery and occupancy costs
are included in cost of revenues.
 
NON-RECURRING ACQUISITION COSTS
 
    Non-recurring acquisition costs represent acquisition costs incurred by the
Company in business combinations accounted for under the pooling-of-interests
method. These costs include accounting, legal, and investment banking fees, real
estate and environmental assessments and appraisals, various regulatory fees and
recognition of transaction related obligations. Generally accepted accounting
principles require the Company to expense all acquisition costs (both those paid
by the Company and those paid by the sellers of the acquired companies) related
to business combinations accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method.

NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
RESTRUCTURING COSTS
 
    The Company records the costs of consolidating existing Company facilities
into acquired operations, including the external costs and liabilities to close
redundant Company facilities and severance and relocation costs related to the
Company's employees in accordance with EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability
Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an
Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in Restructuring)."
 
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share." This Statement establishes standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share ("EPS"). SFAS 128 simplifies the standards for computing EPS
and makes the presentation comparable to international EPS standards by
replacing the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS. It
also requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the
income statement. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that
could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into common stock. The Company intends to adopt SFAS 128
in the fiscal year ended April 25, 1998. The implementation of SFAS 128 is not
expected to have a material effect on the Company's earnings per share as
determined under current accounting rules. Historical earnings per share has not
been presented as such amounts are not deemed meaningful due to the significant
change in the Company's capital structure that will occur on the consummation of
the Distribution.
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income." SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses)
in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires
that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as
components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is
displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. SFAS No. 130
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided for
comparative purposes is required. The Company intends to adopt SFAS No. 130 in
fiscal 1999.
 
UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL DATA

October 25, 1997, as presented in the accompanying unaudited consolidated

PAYABLE TO U.S. OFFICE PRODUCTS
 
    The long-term payable to U.S. Office Products primarily represents payments
made by U.S. Office Products on behalf of the Company and a reasonable
allocation by U.S. Office Products of certain general corporate expenses. No
interest has been allocated to the Company on the outstanding payable. An

</TABLE>
 
    The average outstanding long-term payable to U.S. Office Products during the
fiscal year ended April 26, 1997 was $27,269.
 
    U.S. Office Products has charged the Company interest on the short-term
payable to U.S. Office Products at the prime rate in effect at the time. The
short-term payable to U.S. Office Products was incurred by the Company primarily
as a result of U.S. Office Products repaying short-term debt outstanding at the
businesses acquired by U.S. Office Products at or soon after the respective
dates of acquisition and through the centralized cash management system, which
involves daily advances or sweeps of cash to keep the cash balance at or near
zero on a daily basis. U.S Office Products has not charged the Company interest
on the long-term payable to U.S. Office Products. The Company's financial
statements include allocations of interest expense from U.S. Office Products
totaling $2,232 during the year ended April 26, 1997. If the Company had been
charged interest on all debt allocated by U.S. Office Products during fiscal
1997, interest expense would have totaled $4,554.
 
    The Company expects that the Distribution Agreement with U.S. Office
Products will call for an allocation of $80.0 million of debt by U.S. Office
Products resulting in the forgiveness of $86.7 million at October 25, 1997,
which would be reflected in the financial statements as a contribution of
capital by U.S. Office Products. The Company intends to enter into a credit
facility concurrently with the Distribution which will contain certain financial
and other covenants, including maintenance of certain financial tests

    At April 30, 1996, a valuation allowance had been recorded, related to
deferred tax assets of a Pooled Company, including net operating loss
carryforwards. Based upon the improved profitability of this Pooled Company
during fiscal 1997, the valuation allowance was reversed resulting in a benefit
from income taxes.

NOTE 12--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
LITIGATION
 
    The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the
normal course of its business. Management believes that none of this litigation
will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company.
 
POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
 
    The Company has entered into employment agreements with several employees
that would result in payments to these employees upon a change of control or
certain other events. No amounts have been accrued at April 30, 1996 or April
26, 1997 related to these agreements, as no change of control has occurred.
 
DISTRIBUTION
 
    On or immediately after the Distribution, the Company expects to have a
credit facility in place. The terms of the credit facility is expected to
contain customary covenants including financial covenants. The Company plans to
use a portion of the proceeds from the credit facility to repay certain amounts
payable to U.S. Office Products.
 
    On or before the date of the Distribution, School Specialty, U.S. Office
Products and the other Spin-Off Companies will enter into the Distribution
Agreement, the Tax Allocation Agreement, and the Employee Benefits Agreement and
the Spin-Off Companies will enter into the Tax Indemnification Agreement and may
enter into other agreements, including agreements relating to referral of
customers to one another. These agreements are expected to provide, among other
things, for U.S. Office Products and School Specialty to indemnify each other
from tax and other liabilities relating to their respective businesses prior to
and following the Distribution. Certain of the obligations of School Specialty
and the other Spin-Off Companies to indemnify U.S. Office Products are joint and
several. Therefore, if one of the other spin-off companies fails to satisfy its
indemnification obligations to U.S. Office Products when such a loss occurs,
School Specialty may be required to reimburse U.S. Office Products for all or a
portion of the losses that otherwise would have been allocated to other spin-off
companies. In addition, the agreements will allocate liabilities, including
general corporate and securities liabilities of U.S. Office Products not
specifically related to the school supplies business, between U.S. Office
Products and the Company and the other Spin-Off Companies. The terms of the
agreements that will govern the relationship between School Specialty and U.S.
Office Products will be established by U.S. Office Products in consultation with
School Specialty's management prior to the Distribution while School Specialty
is a wholly-owned subsidiary of U.S. Office Products.
 
NOTE 13--EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
 
    Effective September 1, 1996, the Company implemented the U.S. Office
Products 401(k) Retirement Plan (the "401(k) Plan") which allows employee
contributions in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Company matches a portion of employee contributions and all full-time
employees are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan after one year of
service.
 
    Certain subsidiaries of the Company have, or had prior to implementation of
the 401(k) Plan, qualified defined contribution benefit plans, which allow for
voluntary pre-tax contributions by the

employees. The subsidiaries paid all general and administrative expenses of the
plans and in some cases made matching contributions on behalf of the employees.
For the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995 and the four months ended April
30, 1996, the subsidiaries incurred expenses totaling $175, $105 and $6,
respectively, related to these plans.
 
NOTE 14--STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY
 
EMPLOYEE STOCK PLANS
 
    Prior to the Distribution, certain employees of the Company participated in
the U.S. Office Products 1994 Long-Term Incentive Plan covering employees of
U.S. Office Products. The Company expects to adopt an employee stock option plan
at approximately the time of the Distribution. The Company expects to replace
the options to purchase shares of common stock of U.S. Office Products held by
employees with options to purchase shares of common stock of the Company. At
April 26, 1997, there were approximately 249,600 options to purchase shares of
U.S. Office Products common stock held by Company employees.
 
    Under a services agreement entered into with Jonathan J. Ledecky, the Board
of Directors of U.S. Office Products has agreed that Jonathan J. Ledecky will
receive a stock option for School Specialty Common Stock from School Specialty
as of the date of the Distribution. The U.S. Office Products Board intends the
option to be compensation for Mr. Ledecky's services as a director of the
Company, and certain services as an employee of the Company. The option will
cover up to 7.5% of the outstanding Company common stock determined as of the
date of the Distribution, with no anti-dilution provisions in the event of
issuance of additional shares of common stock (other than with respect to stock
splits or reverse stock splits). The option will have a per share exercise price
equal to the price of the first trade on the day the Company's common stock is
first publicly traded.

Fiscal 1998 Purchase Acquisitions for the period from April 27, 1997 through the
earlier of their respective dates of acquisition or October 25, 1997.
 
    The pro forma combined statement of income for the six months ended October
26, 1996 includes the unaudited financial information of the Company and the
Fiscal 1998 Purchase Acquisitions for the period from May 1, 1996 through
October 26, 1996.
 
    The historical financial statements of the Company give retroactive effect
to the results of the five companies acquired by the Company during the fiscal
year ended April 26, 1997 in business combinations accounted for under the
pooling-of-interests method of accounting.
 
    The historical financial statements of the Company also reflect an allocated
portion of general and administrative costs incurred by U.S. Office Products.
The allocated costs include expenses such as: certain corporate executives'
salaries, accounting and legal fees, departmental costs for accounting, finance,
legal, purchasing, marketing and human resources, as well as other general
overhead costs. These corporate overhead costs have been allocated to the
Company using one of several factors, dependent on the nature of the costs being
allocated, including, revenues, number and size of acquisitions and number of
employees.
 
    The pro forma adjustments are based upon preliminary estimates, available
information and certain assumptions that management deems appropriate. The
unaudited pro forma combined financial data presented herein does not purport to
represent what the Company's financial position or results of operations would
have been had the transactions which are the subject of pro forma adjustments
occurred on those dates, as assumed, and are not necessarily representative of
the Company's financial position or results of operations in any future period.
The pro forma combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the other financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this
Current Report on Form 8-K.

                    (DOLLARS AND SHARE AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)
 
1. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED BALANCE SHEET ADJUSTMENTS
 
(a) Represents payment of debt with available cash, the forgiveness of the
    receivable from U.S. Office Products and the allocation of a total of $5,000
    of debt to the Company at the date of the Distribution. The forgiveness of
    the receivable and the incremental debt allocated to the Company have been
    reflected as a reduction of capital of $6,321.
 
2. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME ADJUSTMENTS
 
(b) Adjustment to reflect reductions in executive compensation as a result of
    the elimination of certain executive positions and the renegotiations of
    executive compensation agreements resulting from certain acquisitions.
 
(c) Adjustment to reflect additional corporate overhead during the period prior
    to the formation of the Technology Solutions division by U.S. Office
    Products as if the division had been formed at May 1, 1996.
 
(d) Adjustment to reflect the increase in amortization expense relating to
    goodwill recorded in purchase accounting related to the Fiscal 1998 Purchase
    Acquisitions for the periods prior to the respective dates of acquisition.
    The Company has recorded goodwill amortization in the historical financial
    statements from the respective dates of acquisition forward. The goodwill is
    being amortized over periods ranging from 25-40 years.
 
(e) Adjustment to reflect the reduction in non-recurring acquisition costs
    related to pooling-of-interests business combinations of $2,274 for the
    fiscal year ended April 26, 1997 and $1,105 for the six months ended October
    26, 1996.
 
(f) Adjustment to reflect the increase in interest expense and reduction in
    interest income resulting from the forgiveness of the receivable from U.S.
    Office Products and the net allocation of $6,321 of debt by U.S. Office
    Products.
 
(g) Adjustment to calculate the provision for income taxes on the combined pro
    forma results at an effective income tax rate of approximately 44%. The
    difference between the effective tax rate of 44% and the statutory tax rate
    of 35% relates primarily to state income taxes and non-deductible goodwill.
 
(h) The weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate pro forma earnings
    per share is based upon 95,963 shares of common stock outstanding for the
    periods. This is based upon the most current number of shares of common
    stock of U.S. Office Products outstanding of 133,000 less 37,037 shares
    expected to be repurchased by U.S. Office Products in the Tender Offer, and
    assumes a distribution ratio of one share of Paradigm Common Stock for each
    share of U.S. Office Products Common Stock. The actual distribution ratio
    will be determined prior to consummation of the Distribution and is expected
    to be less than one share of Paradigm Common Stock for every one share of
    U.S. Office Products Common Stock.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors
  of Paradigm Concepts, Inc.
 
    In our opinion, based upon our audits and the report of other auditors, the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements
of income, of stockholder's equity and of cash flows present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Paradigm Concepts, Inc.
("Paradigm") and its subsidiaries at April 30, 1996 and April 26, 1997, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the fiscal years ended
March 31, 1995, March 31, 1996 and April 26, 1997, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the
responsibility of Paradigm's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the
financial statements of Fortran Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary, which
statements reflect total revenues of $20,243,000 and $20,775,000 for the fiscal
years ended March 31, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Those statements were audited
by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion
expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Fortran
Corp., is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our
audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.

    We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Fortran Corp. as of March

and 1994 (not presented separately herein). These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
 
    We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
    In our opinion, the financial statements referred to and above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fortran Corp. as of
March 31, 1996, and 1995 and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for three years ended March 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
 
    As described in Note 9 to the financial statements, on August 21, 1996, the
Company entered into a letter of intent to exchange all of its issued and
outstanding shares of common stock for shares of U.S. Office Products Company
common stock.

NOTE 1--BACKGROUND
 
    Paradigm Concepts, Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation which is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of U.S. Office Products Company ("U.S. Office
Products"). On January 13, 1998, U.S. Office Products announced its intention to
spin-off its Technology Solutions division as an independent publicly owned
company. This transaction is expected to be effected through the distribution of
shares of the Company to U.S. Office Products shareholders effective on or about
April 25, 1998 (the "Distribution"). Prior to the Distribution, U.S. Office
Products plans to contribute its equity interests in certain wholly-owned
subsidiaries associated with U.S. Office Products' Technology Solutions division
to the Company. U.S. Office Products and the Company will enter into a number of
agreements to facilitate the Distribution and the transition of the Company to
an independent business enterprise.
 
    The Technology Solutions division was created by U.S. Office Products in
January 1997 and completed five business combinations accounted for under the
pooling-of-interests method during the period from October 1996 to April 1997
("the Pooled Companies"). As a result of these business combinations being
accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method, the results of the Company
prior to the completion of such business combinations represent the combined
results of the Pooled Companies operating as separate autonomous entities.
 
NOTE 2--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The consolidated financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities,
divisional equity, revenues and expenses that were directly related to the
Company as it was operated within U.S. Office Products. In cases involving
assets and liabilities not specifically identifiable to any particular business
of U.S. Office Products, only those assets and liabilities expected to be
transferred to the Company prior to the Distribution were included in the
Company's separate consolidated balance sheet. With the exception of interest
expense, the Company's statement of income includes all of the related costs of
doing business including an allocation of certain general corporate expenses of
U.S. Office Products which were not directly related to these businesses
including certain corporate executives' salaries, accounting and legal fees,
departmental costs for accounting, finance, legal, purchasing, marketing, human
resources as well as other general overhead costs. These allocations were based
on a variety of factors, dependent upon the nature of the costs being allocated,
including revenues, number and size of acquisitions and number of employees.
Management believes these allocations were made on a reasonable basis.
 
    U.S. Office Products uses a centralized approach to cash management and the
financing of its operations. As a result, minimal amounts of cash and cash
equivalents and an agreed upon amount of debt will be allocated to the Company
at the time of the Distribution. The consolidated statement of income does not
include an allocation of interest expense on all debt allocated to the Company.
See Note 8 for further discussion of interest expense.
 
NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
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 the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and

                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
 
NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR
 
    Prior to their respective dates of acquisition by U.S. Office Products, the
Pooled Companies reported results on years ending on March 31 and December 31.
Upon acquisition by U.S. Office Products and effective for the fiscal year ended
April 26, 1997 ("fiscal 1997"), the Pooled Companies changed their year-ends
from March 31 and December 31 to conform to U.S. Office Products' fiscal year,
which ends on the last Saturday in April.
 
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and
accounts are eliminated in consolidation.
 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
    The Company considers temporary cash investments with original maturities of
three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
 
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
 
    Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable.
Receivables arising from sales to customers are not collateralized and, as a
result, management continually monitors the financial condition of its customers
to reduce the risk of loss.
 
INVENTORIES
 
    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined
on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis and consist primarily of products held for
sale.
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
    Property and equipment is stated at cost. Additions and improvements are
capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of
property and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The estimated useful lives
range from 25 to 40 years for buildings and its components and 3 to 15 years for
furniture, fixtures and equipment. Property and equipment leased under capital
leases is being amortized over the lesser of its useful life or its lease terms.
 
GOODWILL
 
    Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of assets
acquired in business combinations accounted for under the purchase method.
Substantially all goodwill is amortized on a straight line basis over estimated
useful lives of 25-40 years. Management periodically evaluates the
recoverability of

NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
goodwill, which would be adjusted for a permanent decline in value, if any, by
comparing anticipated undiscounted future cash flows from operations to net book
value.
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
    The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments including cash
and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair
value.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
    As a division of U.S. Office Products, the Company does not file separate
federal income tax returns but rather is included in the federal income tax
returns filed by U.S. Office Products and its subsidiaries from the respective
dates that the entities within the Company were acquired by U.S. Office
Products. For purposes of the consolidated financial statements, the Company's
allocated share of U.S. Office Products' income tax provision was based on the
"separate return" method. Certain companies acquired in pooling-of-interests
transactions elected to be taxed as Subchapter S corporations, and accordingly,
no federal income taxes were recorded by those companies for periods prior to
their acquisition by U.S. Office Products.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
    Product revenue is recognized upon the delivery of products to customers as
no additional obligations to the customers exist. Returns of the Company's
product are considered immaterial. Service revenue is recognized as the services
are performed and is derived from professional services which are generally
provided to clients on a "time and expenses" basis. Payments received in advance
of services performed are recorded as deferred revenue. The Company also
performs a limited number of fixed-price engagements under which revenue is
recognized using the percentage-of-completion method (based on the ratio of
costs incurred to total estimated costs). Provision for estimated losses on
engagement is made during the period in which the loss becomes probable and can
be reasonably estimated. To date, such losses have been insignificant. The
Company reports revenue net of reimbursable expenses which are billed to and
collected from clients.
 
    The American Institute of Public Accountants has approved a new Statement of
Position ("SOP"), SOP 97-2 which will supersede SOP 91-1, "Software Revenue
Recognition." Management has assessed this new statement and believes that its
adoption will not have a material effect on the timing of the Company's revenue
recognition or cause changes to its revenue recognition policies.
 
NON-RECURRING ACQUISITION COSTS
 
    Non-recurring acquisition costs represent acquisition costs incurred by the
Company in business combinations accounted for under the pooling-of-interests
method. These costs include accounting, legal, and investment banking fees, real
estate and environmental assessments and appraisals, various regulatory fees and
recognition of transaction related obligations.

NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share." This Statement establishes standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share ("EPS"). SFAS 128 simplifies the standards for computing EPS
and makes the presentation comparable to international EPS standards by
replacing the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS. It
also requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the
income statement. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that
could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into common stock. The Company intends to adopt SFAS No.
128 in the fiscal year ended April 25, 1998. The implementation of SFAS No. 128
is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's earnings per share as
determined under current accounting rules. Historical earnings per share has not
been presented as such amounts are not deemed meaningful due to the significant
change in the Company's capital structure that will occur on the consummation of
the Distribution.
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income." SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for the reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses)
in a full set of general purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires
that all items required to be recognized under accounting standards as
components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is
displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. SFAS No. 130
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided for
comparative purposes is required. The Company intends to adopt SFAS No. 130 in
the fiscal year ended April 24, 1999.
 
UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL DATA
 
    In the opinion of management, the Company has made all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation
of the financial condition of the Company as of October 25, 1997 and the results
of operations and of cash flows for the six months ended October 26, 1996 and
October 25, 1997, as presented in the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial data.
 
NOTE 4--BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
 
POOLING-OF-INTERESTS METHOD
 
    In fiscal 1997, the Company issued U.S. Office Products common stock to
acquire the Pooled Companies. The Company's consolidated financial statements
give retroactive effect to the acquisitions of the Pooled Companies for all
periods presented. All of the Pooled Companies previously reported on fiscal
years ending other than April 30, 1996 and April 26, 1997. Upon completion of
the acquisitions of the Pooled Companies, their year-ends were changed to U.S.
Office Products' year-end of the last Saturday in April.
 
    Commencing on May 1, 1996, the year-ends of the Pooled Companies were
changed to April 26, 1997, resulting in an adjustment to retained earnings of
$(2,818) during the fiscal year ended April 30, 1996. This adjustment consisted
of revenues, costs and expenses, and dividends of $17,294, $15,026 and $5,086,

PAYABLE TO U.S. OFFICE PRODUCTS
 
    The long-term payable to U.S. Office Products primarily represents payments
made by U.S. Office Products on behalf of the Company and a reasonable
allocation by U.S. Office Products of certain general corporate expenses. No
interest has been allocated to the Company on the outstanding payable. An
analysis of the activity in this account is as follows:

</TABLE>
 
    The average outstanding long-term payable to U.S. Office Products during the
fiscal year ended April 26, 1997 was $1,321.
 
    The Company has earned interest on the receivable from U.S. Office Products
at the prime rate in effect at the time. The receivable from U.S. Office
Products was generated by the Company primarily as a result of U.S. Office
Products sweeping the Company's excess cash through the centralized cash
management system, which involves daily advances or sweeps of cash to keep the
cash balance at or near zero on a

daily basis. U.S. Office Products has not charged the Company interest on the
long-term payable to U.S. Office Products. The Company's financial statements
include allocations of interest income from U.S. Office Products totaling $146
during the year ended April 26, 1997. If the Company had been charged interest
on the long-term payable to U.S. Office Products during fiscal 1997, interest
income would have totaled $51.
 
    The Company expects that the Distribution Agreement with U.S. Office
Products will call for an allocation of $5.0 million of debt by U.S. Office
Products resulting in incremental debt of approximately $6.3 million at October
25, 1997, which would be reflected in the financial statements as a reduction in
stockholder's equity. The Company intends to enter into a credit facility
concurrently with the Distribution which will contain certain financial and
other covenants, including maintenance of certain financial tests and ratios,
limitations on capital expenditures and restrictions on the incurrence of debt
or liens, the sale of assets, the payment of dividends, transactions with
affiliates and other transactions.

NOTE 11--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
LITIGATION
 
    The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the
normal course of its business. Management believes that none of this litigation
will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company.
 
POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
 
    The Company has entered into employment agreements with several employees
that would result in payments to these employees upon a change of control or
certain other events. No amounts have been accrued at April 30, 1996 or April
26, 1997 related to these agreements, as no change of control has occurred.
 
DISTRIBUTION
 
    On or immediately after the Distribution, the Company expects to have a
credit facility in place. The terms of the credit facility are expected to
contain customary covenants including financial covenants. The Company plans to
use a portion of the proceeds from the credit facility to repay certain amounts
payable to U.S. Office Products.
 
    On or before the date of the Distribution, the Company, U.S. Office Products
and the other Spin-Off Companies, will enter into a Distribution Agreement, Tax
Allocation Agreement, and Employee Benefits Agreement, and the Spin-Off
Companies will enter into the Tax Indemnification Agreement. These agreements
are expected to provide, among other things, for U.S. Office Products and the
Company to

                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
 
NOTE 11--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
indemnify each other from tax and other liabilities relating to their respective
businesses prior to and following the Distribution. Certain of the obligations
of the Company and the other Spin-Off Companies to indemnify U.S. Office
Products are joint and several. Therefore, if one of the other Spin-Off
Companies fails to satisfy its indemnification obligations to U.S. Office
Products when such a loss occurs, the Company may be required to reimburse U.S.
Office Products for all or a portion of the losses that otherwise would have
been allocated to other Spin-Off Companies. In addition, the agreements will
allocate liabilities, including general corporate and securities liabilities of
U.S. Office Products not specifically related to the technology business,
between U.S. Office Products and the Company and the other Spin-Off Companies.
 
NOTE 12--EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
 
    Effective September 1, 1996, the Company implemented the U.S. Office
Products 401(k) Retirement Plan (the "401(k) Plan") which allows employee
contributions in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Company matches a portion of employee contributions and all full-time
employees are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan after one year of
service.
 
    Certain subsidiaries of the Company have, or had prior to implementation of
the 401(k) Plan, qualified defined contribution benefit plans, which allow for
voluntary pre-tax contributions by the employees. The subsidiaries paid all
general and administrative expenses of the plans and in some cases made matching
contributions on behalf of the employees. For the fiscal years ended March 31,
1995 and 1996 and April 26, 1997, the subsidiaries incurred expenses totaling
$314, $367 and $390, respectively, related to these plans.
 
NOTE 13--STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
 
EMPLOYEE STOCK PLANS
 
    Prior to the Distribution, certain employees of the Company participated in
the U.S. Office Products 1994 Long-Term Incentive Plan covering employees of
U.S. Office Products. The Company expects to adopt an employee stock option plan
at approximately the time of the Distribution. Upon the Distribution, the
Company expects to replace the options to purchase shares of common stock of
U.S. Office Products held by employees with options to purchase shares of common
stock of the Company. At April 26, 1997, there were approximately 580,027
options to purchase shares of U.S. Office Products common stock held by Company
employees.
 
    Under a services agreement entered into with Jonathan J. Ledecky ("the
Ledecky Services Agreement"), the Board of Directors of U.S. Office Products has
agreed that Jonathan J. Ledecky will receive a stock option for Company Common
Stock from the Company as of the date of the Distribution. The U.S. Office
Products Board intends the option to be compensation for Mr. Ledecky's services
as a director of the Company, and certain services as an employee of the
Company. The option will cover up to 7.5% of the outstanding Company Common
Stock determined as of the date of the Distribution, with no anti-dilution
provisions in the event of issuance of additional shares of Common Stock (other
than with respect to stock splits or reverse stock splits). The option will have
a per share exercise price equal to the price of the first trade on the day the
Company's Common Stock is first publicly traded.

                NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
                    (DOLLARS AND SHARE AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)
 
1. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED BALANCE SHEET ADJUSTMENTS
 
    (a) Adjustment to reflect purchase price adjustments associated with the
Post October 25, 1997 Purchase Acquisition. The portion of the consideration
assigned to goodwill ($1,058) in the transaction accounted for under the
purchase method represents the excess of the cost over the fair market value of
the net assets acquired. The Company amortizes goodwill over a period of 35
years. The recoverability of the unamortized goodwill will be assessed on an
ongoing basis by comparing anticipated undiscounted future cash flows from
operations to net book value.
 
    (b) Represents payment of debt with available cash, the forgiveness of the
receivable from U.S. Office Products by the Company and the allocation of a
total of $15,000 of debt to the Company at the date of the Distribution. The
forgiveness of the receivable and the incremental debt allocated to the Company
has been reflected as a reduction of capital of $5,351.
 
2. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME ADJUSTMENTS
 
    (c) Adjustment to reflect reductions in executive compensation as a result
of the elimination of certain executive positions and the renegotiations of
executive compensation agreements resulting from certain acquisitions.
 
    (d) Adjustment to reflect additional corporate overhead during the period
prior to the formation of the Corporate Travel Services division by U.S. Office
Products as if the division had been formed at May 1, 1996.
 
    (e) Adjustment to reflect the increase in amortization expense relating to
goodwill recorded in purchase accounting related to the Fiscal 1998 Purchase
Acquisitions for the periods prior to the respective dates of acquisition. The
Company has recorded goodwill amortization in the historical financial
statements from the respective dates of acquisition forward. The goodwill is
being amortized over an estimated life of 35 years.
 
    (f) Adjustment to reflect the reduction in non-recurring acquisition costs
related to pooling-of-interests business combinations of $1,156 for the fiscal
year ended April 26, 1997.
 
    (g) Adjustment to reflect the increase in interest expense and reduction in
interest income resulting from the net allocation of $5,351 of debt by U.S.
Office Products.
 
    (h) Adjustment to calculate the provision for income taxes on the combined
pro forma results at an effective income tax rate of approximately 46%. The
difference between the effective tax rate of 46% and the statutory tax rate of
35% relates primarily to state income taxes and non-deductible goodwill.
 
    (i) The pro forma weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate pro
forma earnings per share is based upon 95,963 shares of common stock outstanding
for the periods. This is based upon the most current number of shares of common
stock of U.S. Office Products outstanding of 133,000 less 37,037 shares expected
to be repurchased by U.S. Office Products in the Tender Offer, and assumes a
distribution ratio of one share of Company Common Stock for each share of U.S.
Office Products Common Stock. The actual distribution ratio will be determined
prior to consummation of the Distribution and is expected to be less than one
share of Company Common Stock for every one share of U.S. Office Products Common
Stock.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and Shareholder of
 
TDOP, Inc.
 
    In our opinion, based upon our audits and the report of other auditors, the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements
of income, of stockholder's equity and of cash flows present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of TDOP, Inc. (the "Company") and its
subsidiaries at April 30, 1996 and April 26, 1997, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1994 and
1995, the four months ended April 30, 1996 and the fiscal year ended April 26,
1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of MTA, Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary, which statements reflect total revenues of $11,418,751
for the period from January 25, 1995 (date of incorporation) to December 31,
1995. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report thereon has
been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to
the amounts included for MTA, Inc., is based solely on the report of the other
auditors. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable
basis for the opinion expressed above.

                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
 
NOTE 1--BACKGROUND
 
    TDOP, Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware Corporation which is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of U.S. Office Products Company ("U.S. Office Products"). On January
13, 1998, U.S. Office Products announced its intention to spin-off its Corporate
Travel Services division as an independent publicly owned company. This
transaction is expected to be effected through the distribution of shares of the
Company to U.S. Office Products shareholders effective on or about April 25,
1998 (the "Distribution"). Prior to the Distribution, U.S. Office Products plans
to contribute its equity interests in certain wholly-owned subsidiaries
associated with U.S. Office Products' Corporate Travel Services division to the
Company. U.S. Office Products and the Company will enter into a number of
agreements to facilitate the Distribution and the transition of the Company to
an independent business enterprise.
 
    The Corporate Travel Services division was created by U.S. Office Products
in January 1997 and completed four business combinations accounted for under the
pooling-of-interests method during the period from January 1997 to April 1997
(the "Pooled Companies"). As a result of these business combinations being
accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method, the results of the Company
prior to the completion of such business combinations represent the combined
results of the Pooled Companies operating as separate autonomous entities.
 
    The Company's operations are primarily concentrated in one market segment -
airline travel - and the customers are geographically diverse with no single
customer base concentrated in a single industry. Management considers a downturn
in this market segment to be unlikely. The Company's operations are seasonal,
with the November and December periods having the lowest airline bookings.
 
NOTE 2--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The consolidated financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities,
divisional equity, revenues and expenses that were directly related to the
Company as it was operated within U.S. Office Products. In cases involving
assets and liabilities not specifically identifiable to any particular business
of U.S. Office Products, only those assets and liabilities expected to be
transferred to the Company prior to the Distribution were included in the
Company's separate consolidated balance sheet. With the exception of interest
expense, the Company's statement of income includes all of the related costs of
doing business including an allocation of certain general corporate expenses of
U.S. Office Products which were not directly related to these businesses
including certain corporate executives' salaries, accounting and legal fees,
departmental costs for accounting, finance, legal, purchasing, marketing, human
resources as well as other general overhead costs. These allocations were based
on a variety of factors, dependent upon the nature of the costs being allocated,
including revenues, number and size of acquisitions and number of employees.
Management believes these allocations were made on a reasonable basis.
 
    U.S. Office Products uses a centralized approach to cash management and the
financing of its operations. As a result, minimal amounts of cash and cash
equivalents and an agreed upon amount of debt will be allocated to the Company
at the time of the Distribution. The consolidated statement of income does not
include an allocation of interest expense on all debt allocated to the Company.
See Note 8 for further discussion of interest expense.

NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
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 the
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.
 
CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR
 
    Prior to their respective dates of acquisition by U.S. Office Products, the
Pooled Companies reported results on years ending on December 31. Upon
acquisition by U.S. Office Products and effective for the fiscal year ended
April 26, 1997 ("fiscal 1997"), the Pooled Companies changed their year-ends
from December 31 to conform to U.S. Office Products' fiscal year, which ends on
the last Saturday in April. A four month fiscal transition period from January
1, 1996 through April 30, 1996 has been presented for the Company to conform its
fiscal year-end.
 
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and
accounts are eliminated in consolidation.
 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
    The Company considers temporary cash investments with original maturities of
three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
 
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
 
    Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable.
Receivables arising from sales to customers are not collateralized and, as a
result, management continually monitors the financial condition of its customers
to reduce the risk of loss.
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
    Property and equipment is stated at cost. Additions and improvements are
capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of
property and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The estimated useful lives
range from 25 to 40 years for buildings and its components and 3 to 15 years for
furniture, fixtures and equipment. Property and equipment leased under capital
leases is being amortized over the lesser of its useful life or its lease terms.
 
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
    Intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill, which represents the excess
of cost over the fair value of assets acquired in business combinations
accounted for under the purchase method. Substantially all

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
 
NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
goodwill is amortized on a straight line basis over an estimated useful life of
35 years. Management periodically evaluates the recoverability of goodwill,
which would be adjusted for a permanent decline in value, if any, by comparing
anticipated undiscounted future cash flows from operations to net book value.
 
TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES
 
    Balance sheet accounts of foreign subsidiaries are translated using the
year-end exchange rate, and statement of income accounts are translated using
the average exchange rate for the year. Translation adjustments are recorded as
a separate component of stockholders' equity.
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
    The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments including cash
and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities approximate fair value.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
    As a division of U.S. Office Products, the Company does not file separate
federal income tax returns but rather is included in the federal income tax
returns filed by U.S. Office Products and its subsidiaries from the respective
dates that the entities within the Company were acquired by U.S. Office
Products. For purposes of the consolidated financial statements, the Company's
allocated share of U.S. Office Products' income tax provision was based on the
"separate return" method. Certain companies acquired in pooling-of-interests
transactions elected to be taxed as Subchapter S corporations, and accordingly,
no federal income taxes were recorded by those companies for periods prior to
their acquisition by U.S. Office Products.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
    The Company records revenues from air reservations and hotel and car
reservations when earned, which is at the time a reservation is booked and
ticketed. The Company provides a reserve for cancellations and reservation
changes, and provisions for such amounts are reflected in net revenues. The
reserves that have been netted against net revenues are not material in the
periods reflected. The Company estimates and records accruals for cancellations
and changes to reservation revenues booked. However, such estimates could vary
significantly based upon changes in economic and political conditions that
impact corporate travel patterns. Cruise revenues are recorded when the customer
is no longer entitled to a full refund of the cost of the cruise. Revenues
consist of commissions on travel services and year-end volume bonuses from
travel service providers.
 
OPERATING EXPENSES
 
    Operating expenses include travel agent commissions, salaries,
communications and other costs associated with the selling and processing of
travel reservations.
 
NON-RECURRING ACQUISITION COSTS
 
    Non-recurring acquisition costs represent acquisition costs incurred by the
Company in business combinations accounted for under the pooling-of-interests
method. These costs include accounting, legal,

NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
and investment banking fees, real estate and environmental assessments and
appraisals, various regulatory fees and recognition of transaction related
obligations. Generally accepted accounting principles require the Company to
expense all acquisition costs (both those paid by the Company and those paid by
the sellers of the acquired companies) related to business combinations
accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method.
 
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share." This Statement establishes standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share ("EPS"). SFAS No. 128 simplifies the standards for computing
EPS and makes the presentation comparable to international EPS standards by
replacing the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS. It
also requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the
income statement. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that
could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into common stock. The Company intends to adopt SFAS No.
128 in the fiscal year ending April 25, 1998. The implementation of SFAS No. 128
is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's earnings per share as
determined under current accounting rules. Historical earnings per share has not
been presented as such amounts are not deemed meaningful due to the significant
change in the Company's capital structure that will occur on the consummation of
the Distribution.
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130. "Reporting Comprehensive
income." SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses)
in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires
that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as
components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is
displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. SFAS No. 130
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided for
comparative purposes is required. The Company intends to adopt SFAS No. 130 in
fiscal 1999.
 
UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL DATA
 
    In the opinion of management, the Company has made all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation
of the financial condition of the Company as of October 25, 1997 and the results
of operations and of cash flows for the six months ended October 26, 1996 and
October 25, 1997, as presented in the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial data.

POOLING-OF-INTERESTS METHOD
 
    In fiscal 1997, the Company issued U.S. Office Products common stock to
acquire the Pooled Companies. The Company's consolidated financial statements
give retroactive effect to the acquisitions of the Pooled Companies for all
periods presented. Prior to being acquired by U.S. Office Products, the

PAYABLE TO U.S. OFFICE PRODUCTS
 
    The long-term payable to U.S. Office Products primarily represents payments
made by U.S. Office Products on behalf of the Company and a reasonable
allocation by U.S. Office Products of certain general corporate expenses. No
interest has been allocated to the Company on the outstanding payable. An
analysis of the activity in this account is as follows:

                                                                       ---------
</TABLE>
 
    The average outstanding long-term payable to U.S. Office Products during the
fiscal year ended April 26, 1997 was $43.
 
    U.S. Office Products has charged the Company interest on the short-term
payable to U.S. Office Products at the prime rate in effect at the time. The
short-term payable to U.S. Office Products was incurred by the Company primarily
as a result of U.S. Office Products repaying short-term debt outstanding at the
businesses acquired by U.S. Office Products at or soon after the respective
dates of acquisition and through the centralized cash management system, which
involves daily advances or sweeps of cash to keep the cash balance at or near
zero on a daily basis. U.S. Office Products has not charged the Company interest
on the long-term payable to U.S. Office Products. The Company's financial
statements include allocations of interest expense from U.S. Office Products
totaling $21 during the year ended April 26, 1997. If the Company had been
charged interest on all debt allocated by U.S. Office Products during fiscal
1997, interest expense would have totaled $590.
 
    The Company expects that the Distribution Agreement with U.S. Office
Products will call for an allocation of $15.0 million of debt by U.S. Office
Products resulting in incremental debt of $5.4 million at October 25, 1997,
which would be reflected in the financial statements as a reduction in
stockholder's equity. The Company intends to enter into a credit facility
concurrently with the Distribution which will contain certain financial and
other covenants, including maintenance of certain financial tests and ratios,

    Certain Pooled Companies were organized as subchapter S corporations prior
to the closing of their acquisitions by the Company and, as a result, the
federal tax on their income was the responsibility of their individual
stockholders. Accordingly, the specific Pooled Companies provided no federal
income tax expense prior to these acquisitions by the Company.
 
    The following unaudited pro forma income tax information is presented in
accordance with SFAS 109 as if the specific Pooled Companies had been subject to

NOTE 11--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
LITIGATION
 
    The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the
normal course of its business. Management believes that none of this litigation
will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company.
 
POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
 
    The Company has entered into employment agreements with several employees
that would result in payments to these employees upon a change of control or
certain other events. No amounts have been accrued at April 30, 1996 or April
26, 1997 related to these agreements, as no change of control has occurred.
 
DISTRIBUTION
 
    On or immediately after the Distribution, the Company expects to have a
credit facility in place. The terms of the credit facility is expected to
contain customary covenants including financial covenants. The Company plans to
use a portion of the proceeds from the credit facility to repay certain amounts
payable to U.S. Office Products.
 
    On or before the date of the distribution, the Company, U.S. Office Products
and the other Spin-Off Companies will enter into the Distribution Agreement, the
Tax Allocation Agreement and the Employee Benefits Agreement, and the Spin-Off
Companies will enter into the Tax Indemnification Agreement and

NOTE 11--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
may enter into other agreements, including agreements related to referral of
customers to one another. These agreements are expected to provide, among other
things, for U.S. Office Products and the Company to indemnify each other from
tax and other liabilities relating to their respective businesses prior to and
following the Distribution. Certain of the obligations of the Company and the
other spin-off companies to indemnify U.S. Office Products are joint and
several. Therefore, if one of the other spin-off companies fails to indemnify
U.S. Office Products when such a loss occurs, the Company may be required to
reimburse U.S. Office Products for all or a portion of the losses that otherwise
would have been allocated to other spin-off companies. In addition, the
agreements will allocate liabilities, including general corporate and securities
liabilities of U.S. Office Products not specifically related to the business
travel agency business, between U.S. Office Products and each spin-off company.
 
NOTE 12--EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
 
    Effective September 1, 1996, the Company implemented the U.S. Office
Products 401(k) Retirement Plan (the "401(k) Plan") which allows employee
contributions in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Company matches a portion of employee contributions and all full-time
employees are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan after one year of
service.
 
    Certain subsidiaries of the Company have, or had prior to implementation of
the 401(k) Plan, qualified defined contribution benefit plans, which allow for
voluntary pre-tax contributions by the employees. The subsidiaries paid all
general and administrative expenses of the plans and in some cases made matching
contributions on behalf of the employees. For the years ended December 31, 1994
and 1995, the four months ended April 30, 1996 and the fiscal year ended April
26, 1997 the subsidiaries incurred expenses totaling $194, $204, $73 and $249,
respectively, related to these plans.
 
NOTE 13--STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY
 
EMPLOYEE STOCK PLANS
 
    Prior to the Distribution, certain employees of the Company participated in
the U.S. Office Products 1994 Long-Term Incentive Plan covering employees of
U.S. Office Products. The Company intends to adopt an employee stock option plan
at approximately the time of the Distribution. The Company expects to replace
the options to purchase shares of common stock of U.S. Office Products held by
employees with options to purchase shares of common stock of the Company. At
April 26, 1997, there were approximately 114,116 options to purchase shares of
U.S. Office Products common stock held by Company employees.
 
    Under a service agreement entered into with Jonathan J. Ledecky, the Board
of Directors of U.S. Office Products has agreed that Jonathan J. Ledecky will
receive a stock option for Company common stock from the Company as of the date
of the Distribution. The Board intends the option to be compensation for Mr.
Ledecky's services as a director of the Company, and certain services as an
employee of the Company. The option will cover up to 7.5% of the outstanding
Company common stock determined as of the date of the Distribution, with no
anti-dilution provisions in the event of issuance of additional shares of common
stock (other than with respect to stock splits or reverse stock splits). The
option will have a per share exercise price equal to the price of the first
trade on the day the Company's common stock is first publicly traded.
