                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
                                   ----------


To the Board of Directors and Shareholder of
    KII Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of KII Holding
Corp. and Subsidiaries (formerly Kleinert Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries), a
majority-owned subsidiary of Stellex Industries, Inc., as of December 31, 1997
and 1996, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholder's
equity, and cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 1997 (successor)
and June 30, 1997 (predecessor) and the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995
(predecessor). 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 consolidated financial position of KII Holding Corp.
and Subsidiaries (formerly Kleinert Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries) as of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the consolidated results of their operations and
their cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 1997 (successor) and June
30, 1997 (predecessor) and the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995
(predecessor) in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS:

         Predecessor
         -----------

         Kleinert Industries, Inc. (predecessor) ("Kleinert") was a wholly owned
         subsidiary of Kleinert Industrie Holding A.G., a Swiss company (the
         "Parent"), and was organized under the laws of the State of California
         on July 1, 1988, commencing operations on September 1, 1988, and which
         provided management services for its wholly owned subsidiaries -
         Paragon Precision Products ("PPP"), Bandy Machining International
         ("BMI"), Scanning Electron Analysis Laboratories, Inc. ("SEAL"), and
         General Inspection Laboratories, Inc. ("GIL").

         PPP specializes in the manufacture of precision aerospace components.
         BMI manufactures precision hinges, door panels and hinged assemblies
         for both aerospace and industrial applications. SEAL specializes in
         materials analysis and problem solving for government and industry. GIL
         provides a complete array of non-destructive testing services for
         inspecting critical parts and manufactured components.

         Acquisition And Successor
         -------------------------

         On July 1, 1997, KII Holding Corp. (successor), a Delaware company
         ("KII Holding") incorporated on July 1, 1997, through a wholly owned
         subsidiary (KII Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation), acquired
         all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Kleinert and
         Subsidiaries (predecessor company and currently known as Stellex
         Aerospace and Subsidiaries) from Kleinert Industrie Holding A.G. (the
         "Seller"). The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase
         method of accounting, and, accordingly, the net purchase price of
         approximately $26.5 million (including the assumption of $2.65 million
         of mortgage indebtedness and the issuance to the Seller of a note for
         $1.75 million) has been allocated to the assets purchased and the
         liabilities assumed based upon the fair values at the date of
         acquisition. There was no excess purchase price over the fair values on
         the net assets acquired in connection with the acquisition. The
         acquisition was financed in part from new borrowings totaling $19.3
         million and the issuance of common and preferred stock totaling $4.75
         million. KII Holding is owned by Stellex Industries, Inc., a Delaware
         corporation, which owns approximately 80% of the issued and outstanding
         common stock of KII Holding, with Stellex Aerospace's management
         holding the remainder of its outstanding common stock. KII Holding is a
         holding company whose operations are conducted through its operating
         subsidiaries. References to the "Company" include both KII Holding and
         its predecessor, Kleinert.

         Pursuant to the Kleinert Stock Purchase Agreement, the Seller agreed to
         indemnify KII Acquisition Corp. for all liabilities and other losses
         arising from, among other things, any breach of the representations,
         warranties or covenants of the Seller or Kleinert contained in the
         Kleinert Stock Purchase Agreement. KII Acquisition Corp. has agreed to
         indemnify the Seller for all liabilities (including, without
         limitation, liabilities for taxes), and other losses arising from,
         among other things, the operation or conduct of Stellex Aerospace's
         business after the Closing Date and the breach of any representation,
         warranty or covenant of KII Acquisition Corp. contained in the Kleinert
         Stock Purchase Agreement. With certain limited exceptions (e.g.,
         fraud), neither the Seller nor KII Acquisition Corp. is required to
         indemnify any other person unless the aggregate of all amounts for
         which indemnity would otherwise be payable exceeds $100,000 (the
         "Basket Amount") and, in such event, the indemnifying party shall be
         responsible for all Indemnified Losses, including those

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         comprising the Basket Amount. In addition, the indemnification
         obligations of KII Acquisition Corp. and the Seller are generally
         limited to a maximum of $1,750,000.

         Pursuant to an agreement entered into in connection with the Kleinert
         Acquisition (the "Stellex Aerospace Investor Agreement"), six senior
         members of Stellex Aerospace's management team (the "Buyers," and
         together with a member of management who received Stock Appreciation
         Rights ("SARs") as described below, the "Management Members") purchased
         19.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of KII Holding for $778,090.
         As part of the closing of the sale, the six senior members were paid
         $1,460,300 as part of a management participation plan agreement with
         the prior owner who allowed them to purchase the 19.9%. In addition,
         Stellex Industries purchased KII Holding's remaining common stock for
         $3,131,910 and 84 shares of KII Holding's Series A Preferred Stock,
         having a stated value of $10,000 per share (the "Series A Preferred
         Stock"), for $840,000. Pursuant to the Stellex Aerospace Investor
         Agreement, the Buyers also agreed to purchase shares of KII Holding's
         Series B Preferred Stock with any other payments received by the Buyers
         under their respective management participation plan agreements with
         the Seller.

         Pursuant to the Stellex Aerospace Investor Agreement, KII Holding
         granted SARs to certain Management Members. KII Holding has the right
         to redeem (the "Redemption Right") all, but not less than all, of any
         common stock held by any Management Member and to cause a liquidation
         and termination of any SAR held by him to KII Holding upon the
         occurrence of certain events, including the death, disability or
         termination of the Management Member, and for any reason after July 1,
         2002. Moreover, the Stellex Aerospace Investor Agreement gives each
         Management Member the right to cause KII Holding to purchase all, but
         not less than all, of any common stock of KII Holding held by him
         and/or to cause KII Holding to liquidate and terminate any SARs held by
         him (hereinafter referred to as the "Put Right") upon the occurrence of
         certain events, including such Management Member's death, disability,
         termination Without Cause (as defined in the Stellex Aerospace Investor
         Agreement) or scheduled retirement, and for any reason after July 1,
         2002. The applicable purchase price to be received by a Management
         Member upon the exercise of a Redemption Right or Put Right is based
         upon a formula set forth in the Stellex Aerospace Investor Agreement.
         To the extent KII Holding is prohibited under the terms of its existing
         indebtedness from making payment to any Management Member for any
         shares of its common stock or vested SARs purchased or liquidated
         pursuant to the Stellex Aerospace Investor Agreement, then it is
         required to issue a promissory note to such Management Member for the
         amount owing. Such note shall be payable when and to the extent KII
         Holding is permitted to make such payment and bear interest at a rate
         of 10% per annum. Such note shall also be unsecured and subordinated to
         all other indebtedness of KII Holding, including KII Holding's
         Guarantee of the Notes.

         The Stellex Aerospace Investor Agreement further provides that,
         subsequent to the closing of the Kleinert Acquisition, each Management
         Member, except for one who has a scheduled retirement, will enter into
         a five-year employment agreement with KII Holding or one of its
         subsidiaries.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


2.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

         Principles Of Consolidation
         ---------------------------

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements dated prior to the
         acquisition of Kleinert and Subsidiaries on July 1, 1997, include the
         accounts of Kleinert and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the
         "Predecessor"). Financial statements dated subsequent to the
         acquisition include the accounts of KII Holding (the "Successor") and
         its wholly owned subsidiaries, KII Acquisition Corp., Stellex Aerospace
         and Subsidiaries (PPP, BMI, SEAL and GIL). All significant intercompany
         transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

         Use Of Estimates
         ----------------

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
         accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
         and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
         liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
         date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
         and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
         from those estimates.

         Cash And Cash Equivalents
         -------------------------

         Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investment
         instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less. The
         carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity
         of these instruments.

         Inventories
         -----------

         Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or
         market.

         Property, Plant And Equipment
         -----------------------------

         Property, plant and equipment are stated at the Company's allocated
         acquisition cost for assets acquired through purchase acquisitions and
         at cost for all new additions, and are being depreciated over the
         estimated useful lives of the assets, using the straight-line method of
         depreciation. Estimated useful lives for fixed assets are as follows:

         Building and improvements                            32 years
         Leasehold improvements                               Based on the lesser of the useful life of the
                                                              assets or the remaining life of the lease
         Machinery and equipment                              8-10 years
         Office furniture and fixtures                        8-10 years
         Office equipment and computers                       4-5 years
         Autos and trucks                                     4-5 years

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
         incurred. Major renewals or betterments, which substantially extend the
         useful life of the assets, are capitalized. Upon sale or disposition of
         assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from
         the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income.

         Goodwill
         --------

         Goodwill relates to the excess of cost over the fair value of the net
         assets of businesses acquired by the Predecessor and were being
         amortized over a period of 40 years on a straight-line basis.

         Deferred Financing Costs
         ------------------------

         The costs related to the issuance of debt are capitalized and amortized
         on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related debt.

         Long-Lived Assets
         -----------------

         In fiscal year 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
         Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment
         of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." The
         adoption of SFAS No. 121 had no impact on the Company's financial
         position or on its results of operations.

         In accordance with SFAS No. 121, long-lived assets held and used by the
         Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
         circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
         recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of
         long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the carrying value of its
         goodwill and property, plant and equipment on an ongoing basis and
         recognizes an impairment when the estimated future undiscounted cash
         flows from operations are less than the carrying value of the related
         long-lived assets.

         Fair Value Of Financial Instruments
         -----------------------------------

         SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments,"
         requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial
         instruments. Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts
         payable, accrued liabilities and amounts due to and from affiliates are
         reflected in the consolidated financial statements at fair value
         because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value
         of long-term debt closely approximates its carrying value. The Company
         uses quoted market prices, when available, or discounted cash flows to
         calculate these fair values.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         Income Taxes
         ------------

         The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109,
         "Accounting for Income Taxes," which prescribes an asset and liability
         approach. The asset and liability method requires the recognition of
         deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax
         consequences of temporary differences between tax bases and financial
         reporting bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in
         effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

         The provision for income taxes includes federal and state income taxes
         currently payable and those deferred because of temporary differences
         between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and
         liabilities. Such temporary differences primarily result from state
         franchise taxes, allowance for doubtful accounts, and differences
         between the book and tax bases of property and equipment. If necessary,
         valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to
         the amount expected to be realized.

         Equity Put Rights On Common Stock
         ---------------------------------

         Management of Stellex Aerospace owns 19.9% of the outstanding stock of
         KII Holding. The amount reported in the December 31, 1997 balance sheet
         of KII Holding as equity put rights on common stock reflects the
         redemption value of such shares based on certain redemption and put
         rights associated with the stock. Changes in the value of the equity
         put rights on common stock from the original amounts paid by the
         minority shareholders are recorded as an adjustment to compensation
         expense in the period.

         Revenue Recognition
         -------------------

         Sales and cost of the products sold are recorded at the time of
         shipment.

         Impact Of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
         ----------------------------------------------

         In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
         SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." The standard
         establishes guidelines for the reporting and display of comprehensive
         income and its components in financial statements. Disclosure of
         comprehensive income and its components will be required beginning with
         the Company's fiscal year ending 1998. For the six months ended
         December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1997, and the year ended December 31,
         1996, the Company had no Comprehensive Income components as defined in
         SFAS No. 130.

         Also in June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About
         Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." The standard
         requires that companies disclose "operating segments" based on the way
         management disaggregates the Company for making internal operating
         decisions. The new rules will be effective for the Company's 1998
         fiscal year-end. Management believes that the adoption of this standard
         will not have any material impact on the Company's reporting of its
         segments.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures
         About Pensions and Other Post-retirement Benefits," which standardizes
         the disclosure requirement for pensions and other post-retirement
         benefits. The implementation of SFAS No. 132 is not expected to have an
         impact on the Company's financial statements. The standard will be
         effective for the Company for the year ended December 31, 1998.

6.       BANK LINE OF CREDIT:

         The Company had a $6,550,000 revolving line of credit with a California
         commercial bank. The bank had a first interest on substantially all
         assets of the Company, except land and buildings. The line of credit
         was scheduled for renewal on August 1, 1997. The line bore interest at
         either .25% over the bank's prime rate or 1.5% over the London
         Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or the Offshore Interbank Offered Rate
         ("IBOR"). At December 31, 1996, the effective interest rate was 7.165%.
         The credit agreement contained restrictive covenants on additional
         borrowings, capital expenditures, acquisitions and dividend payments
         and required that the Company meet certain specified financial ratios.
         As of December 31, 1996, the Company was in compliance with all of the
         covenants and financial ratios under its credit agreement. Amount
         outstanding under the facility at December 31, 1996 was $4,300,000. The
         carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity
         of this instrument. The outstanding amount under the facility of
         $4,600,000 was paid on July 1, 1997 in connection with the Kleinert
         Acquisition. This credit facility was not renewed since all credit
         facilities are now maintained by Stellex Industries.

         Stellex Industries has a credit facility which provides for a $25
         million revolving line of credit and a $25 million term line of credit.
         Borrowings are collateralized by all of the assets of Stellex
         Industries and are jointly and severally guaranteed by each of Stellex
         Industries' subsidiaries, including KII Holding. The credit facility
         requires Stellex Industries to maintain a minimum fixed charges
         coverage ratio and interest coverage ratio, as defined, minimum net
         worth of $5,500,000 and a maximum leverage ratio. The credit facility
         also restricts Stellex Industries' ability to incur additional
         indebtedness, pay dividends or other significant activities without
         approval of the lender. Stellex Industries was in compliance with the
         covenants at December 31, 1997. At December 31, 1997, Stellex
         Industries had $7,500,000 outstanding under the revolving line of
         credit in the form of base rate loans.

         this note is due on demand. Although the note payable to Stellex
         Industries is due on demand, Stellex Industries has advised the Company
         that it has no present intentions of calling the note during 1998.          $20,943,000                    -

         monthly or 1.5% over LIBOR, payable the earlier of the maturity of the

              (FORMERLY KLEINERT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES)

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         On October 31, 1997, Stellex Industries paid on behalf of the Company
         certain debt consisting of: $16,000,000 term note payable issued in
         connection with the acquisition of Kleinert and which was payable to
         Societe Generale and was to mature on June 30, 2004; a $2,500,000
         promissory note also issued in connection with the acquisition and was
         payable to Trinity Investment Corp., a related party, and was to mature
         on June 30, 2005; and $1,230,000 of revolving credit borrowings under a
         credit facility. As a result, the Company recorded a loss comprised of
         unamortized debt issuance cost of $747,200 which has been reflected,
         net of income tax benefit, in the Company's consolidated statements of
         income as an extraordinary item.

         In return for paying off debt, the Company issued a note payable to
         Stellex Industries totaling $20,943,000 which included a $1,000,000
         non-cash allocation of new deferred financing costs incurred by Stellex
         Industries and capitalized by the Company. Such costs, which were
         allocated to the Company, were incurred by Stellex Industries in
         connection with the registration and exchange of $100,000,000 aggregate
         principal amount of 9-1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") due
         November 1, 2007. The Notes are guaranteed by the Company and are
         collateralized by the assets of the Company and other subsidiaries of
         Stellex Industries. The Notes contain certain restrictive covenants
         and, in the event that Stellex Industries was not in compliance with
         the terms of the Notes, the Notes would become due and payable
         immediately by Stellex Industries and its subsidiaries, including the
         Company. As a result, the note payable to Stellex Industries would also
         become due and payable immediately. Although the note payable to
         Stellex Industries is due on demand, Stellex Industries has advised the
         Company that it has no present intentions of calling the note during
         1998.

         The fair value of the Company's long-term notes payable is based on
         either quoted market prices or current rates for similar issues for
         debt of the same remaining maturities. At December 31, 1997 and 1996,
         the fair value of the Company's long-term notes payable approximated
         carrying value based on their effective interest rates compared to
         current market rates.

         Maturities of long-term debt and capital leases as of December 31, 1997
         are as follows:

</TABLE>


        The difference between the actual tax provision and the amount obtained
        by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% to the income
        before income taxes is primarily attributable to the effect of state
        income taxes (state tax rate of 9.3%), non-deductible expenses relating
        to goodwill and officers' life insurance, and change in value of the put
        rights on common stock.

        At December 31, 1997, the Company's alternative minimum tax credits for
        federal and state purposes are estimated to be $87,600 and $90,300,
        respectively, which are available to reduce income taxes on an
        indefinite carryforward basis.

9.       EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS:

         Defined Contribution Plan

         The Company sponsors a defined contribution pension plan which covers
         substantially all employees. Company contributions are determined at
         1.5% of the employees' gross compensation, plus an additional matching
         of 50% of the employees' voluntary contribution. The maximum Company
         contribution is limited to 3% of the employees' gross compensation.
         Total Company contributions were $133,800, $133,400, $223,300 and
         $200,500 for the six months ended December 31, 1997, the six months
         ended June 30, 1997 and the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
         respectively.

         The Company also sponsors a defined benefit plan which covers four
         employees of a subsidiary of the Company. The balance of unfunded
         pension benefits represents the net present value of

                                       18

              (FORMERLY KLEINERT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES)

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         estimated future payments based on actuarially determined life
         expectancies and an 7.75% discount rate. No assets have currently been
         provided for the plan.

         Deferred Compensation Agreements

         The Company has individual deferred compensation agreements with eight
         management employees. These agreements provide for monthly payments to
         be made to the individuals commencing upon their retirement and
         continuing for an agreed-upon term as set forth in the agreements,
         generally fifteen years. The amount of the payments is specified by
         each contract and is generally equal to forty percent of the employee's
         average compensation for the last five years of his employment as
         reduced by the amount of any company - provided benefits to which the
         employee is entitled from any other Company pension benefit plan. The
         agreements also contain other provisions entitling the employees to
         pre-retirement death benefits, disability benefits and survivor
         benefits.

         The Company has in place individual life insurance policies on each of
         the covered employees and intends to use the insurance benefits
         (accumulated cash surrender value of the policies and the
         post-retirement death benefits) to fund the benefit payments required
         under the agreements. The insurance policies are designed such that the
         insurance benefits under the policies are expected, over time, to be
         sufficient to pay all of the required benefits and reimburse the
         Company for its costs of providing the insurance.

         At December 31, 1997 and 1996, the deferred compensation liability was
         $1,405,700 and $1,291,900, respectively. The estimated liability was
         calculated based on actuarially determined estimates of compensation,
         mortality, retirement dates and other relevant factors pertaining to
         the participants and a discount rate of 7.75% per annum. The related
         expense for the six months ended December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1997,
         and for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 was $56,900,
         $56,900, $209,500 and $71,800, respectively. The expense for 1996
         included the non-recurring step-up of the liability for the
         implementation of two additional agreements effective January 1, 1996.

10.      LEASE COMMITMENTS:

         The Company leases office facilities and equipment under operating
         lease agreements which expire at various dates through 2004. The
         facility leases have renewal options. Certain leases provide for annual
         increases, at various dates, based upon percentage changes in the
         Consumer Price Index.

         $349,700, $723,300 and $740,200, respectively, which includes $152,000,
         $150,000, $290,000 and $309,500, respectively, for facility rent paid
         to the former owner of BMI.


11.      CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:

         Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
         concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts
         receivable. The Company's customer base principally includes the
         commercial aviation, aerospace and defense industries. The Company is
         directly affected by national and international economic conditions in
         the aerospace and defense industries. Management believes that such
         factors are mitigated by the longevity of the Company's relationships
         with its customers. For the six months ended December 31, 1997, the
         Company derived approximately 53% of its sales from ten (10) customers
         consisting of nineteen (19) separate operating divisions. In addition,
         as of December 31, 1997, two customers accounted for approximately 28%
         of the Company's trade accounts receivable balances.

         It is the policy of the Company to deposit its cash in federally
         insured financial institutions. From time to time, deposits exceed
         Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits.


12.      RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

         Mentmore Holdings Corporation, an affiliate, provides management
         services to KII Holding and Subsidiaries pursuant to the Management
         Advisory Services agreement dated July 1, 1997. Mentmore provides the
         Company with general management, advisory, consulting, and other
         services with respect to the Company's business, including strategic
         planning, financial planning, accounting and financial reporting,
         consulting and general business development. Total fees incurred by the
         successor for services provided by Mentmore were $600,100 for the six
         months ended December 31, 1997, including $450,100 for a non-recurring
         charge for investment banking and financial advisory expenses.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

13.      EQUITY PUT RIGHTS ON COMMON STOCK:

         Pursuant to an agreement entered into in connection with the Kleinert
         Acquisition, certain members of Stellex Aerospace's management (the
         "Buyer(s)") purchased 19.9% of the common and preferred shares of KII
         Holding for $778,090.

         KII Holding has the right to redeem (the "Redemption Right") all, but
         not less than all, of any common stock held by the Buyers upon the
         occurrence of certain events, including the death, disability or
         termination of the Buyer, and for any reason after July 1, 2002. In
         addition, each Buyer has the right to cause KII Holding to purchase
         all, but not less than all, of any common stock held by him under
         similar conditions (the "Put Right"). The applicable purchase price to
         be received by a Buyer upon the exercise of a Redemption Right or Put
         Right is based upon a formula set forth in the Stellex Investor
         Agreement. In addition, KII Holding granted the Buyers the right to
         receive the net appreciation associated with an additional 10% of
         equity ownership in KII Holding. The value of these SARs is computed
         under the same formula used for the Redemption and Put Rights on the
         minority interests, and may be paid under similar conditions. The
         equity put rights on common stock are reported in the financial
         statements at the amount paid by management as adjusted for changes in
         value based on the underlying formulas for the equity put rights on
         common stock and SARs, with a corresponding charge to compensation
         expense. This resulted in an expense of $300,000 for the six months
         ended December 31, 1997.


14.     SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY:

         The Company issued 84 shares of KII Holding's Series A Preferred Stock,
         having a stated value of $10,000, for total gross proceeds of $840,000.
         Each stockholder of preferred stock is entitled to one vote for each
         share of preferred stock outstanding. When declared by the Board of
         Directors, the preferred stockholders are entitled to receive
         cumulative dividends at a rate of 10% per annum. At December 31, 1997,
         dividends of $42,300 had been declared but not paid. The preferred
         stock is redeemable, in cash, in whole or in part, at any time (or from
         time to time) at the option of the Company, by resolution of the Board
         of Directors at $10,000 per share plus any accrued and unpaid
         dividends.
