ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On March 16, 1998, KRUG International Corp. ("KRUG") merged its domestic
subsidiaries, KRUG Life Sciences Inc. and Technology Scientific Services, Inc.
(the "Subsidiaries") into Wyle Laboratories, Inc. ("Wyle") pursuant to an
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") dated March 12, 1998.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the outstanding shares of the Subsidiaries
were converted, in the aggregate, into (i) 3,800,000 shares of Series A-1
Preferred Stock that have voting rights and are convertible into approximately
38% of Wyle's common stock as of the consummation of the merger, (ii) a cash
payment of $3.052 million received by KRUG, (iii) shares of Series B Senior
Preferred Stock that are nonvoting and have a face amount and an aggregate
liquidation preference of $954,000 payable in even increments on December
22, 2003, 2004 and 2005 and (iv) a stock option that entitles KRUG to purchase
approximately 38% of the shares issuable under existing employee stock options,
as and if such shares are purchased by existing employees. The Series A-1
Preferred Stock bears a cumulative annual dividend of $780,000, subject to the
prior redemption of the Series B Senior Preferred Stock, applicable loan
covenants and the availability of funds. Wyle assumed approximately $3.3
million of the Subsidiaries' working capital debt.
In connection with the Merger Agreement, KRUG entered into a Stockholders
Agreement, providing, among other things, that (i) for so long as KRUG shall own
10% or more of the stock of Wyle, KRUG shall appoint two of seven directors:
(ii) the vote of six of the seven directors or a class vote of each series of
preferred stock is necessary for certain significant corporate transactions: and
(iii) KRUG will have demand registration rights beginning nine months after the
closing of the merger.
The consideration received by KRUG was based on extensive, arms length
negotiation, in light of the relative financial and business attributes of the
Subsidiaries and Wyle, comparative valuations of similar transactions, and other
available information. KRUG believes the consideration received to be fair and
adequate. Quarterdeck Investment Partners, Inc. rendered to the Board of
Directors of KRUG its opinion that, subject to certain assumptions and
limitations, the transactions are fair to KRUG from a financial point of view.

during the period from its adoption to date, and each trust forming a part
thereof is exempt from tax pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code. Wyle has
delivered to each the Companies copies of the most recent Internal Revenue
Service determination letters with respect to each such Plan. Each Wyle
Employee Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with all
applicable legal requirements, except where the failure to comply would not
have a Material Adverse Effect.
(d) There is no contract, agreement, plan or arrangement covering
any employee or former employee of Wyle or any Plan Affiliate that,
individually or collectively, could give rise to the payment of any amount that
would not be deductible pursuant to the terms of Sections 162(a)(1) or 280G of
the Code nor would any Person become entitled to severance termination
allowance or similar payments as a result of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement.
(e) Wyle does not have any current or projected liability in
respect of post-employment or post-retirement health, medical or life insurance

as required by applicable law. No condition exists that would prevent Wyle
from amending or terminating any Wyle Employee Plan providing health or medical
benefits in respect of any active employee of Wyle except where liability to
amend or terminate any such plan or arrangement would not have a Material
Adverse Effect.
(f) There has been no amendment to, written interpretation or
announcement (whether or not written) by Wyle or any Plan Affiliate relating
to, or change in employee participation or coverage under, any Wyle Employee
Plan which would increase materially the expense of maintaining such Wyle
Employee Plan above the level of the expense incurred in respect thereof for
the fiscal year ended on December 28, 1997.
(g) Wyle does not have any knowledge of any material actions,
suits or claims pending or threatened, against the assets of any Wyle Employee
Plan, other than routine claims for benefits.
