                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT






To the Board of Directors
TCR Corporation
Minneapolis, Minnesota


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of TCR Corporation as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of income, stockholder's
equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 TCR Corporation as of December
31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.   Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

          Nature of business:

                TCR Corporation's operations consist of job order processing of
                customer designed metal parts. The Company sells, under open
                credit terms, to customers located throughout the United States.
                The receivables resulting from these sales are generally
                unsecured.

             A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies follows:

             Estimates and assumptions:

                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.

             Inventories:

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

             Investments:

                Investments are carried at cost, except where there is a
                permanent impairment of value, in which case they would be
                carried at estimated realizable value.  See Note 3.

             Property and equipment:

                Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is
                provided on the straight-line and declining-balance methods over
                the following estimated useful lives:

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Note 1.         Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

                When property and equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of,
                the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the
                accounts, with any gain or loss reflected in operations. Repairs
                and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.

             Goodwill:

                Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a
                forty-year period.

             Income taxes:

                Effective January 1, 1996, the Company, with the consent of its
                sole stockholder, elected to be taxed under sections of the
                federal and state income tax laws which provide that, in lieu of
                corporation income taxes, the stockholder separately accounts
                for the Company's items of income and deductions. Therefore, the
                financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1996 do not
                include any provision for corporate income taxes, other than
                built-in gains taxes and state minimum fee requirements. See
                Note 5.

                For the year ended December 31, 1995, deferred income taxes are
                provided on temporary differences between reporting of income
                for financial statement and tax purposes arising from
                differences in the methods of accounting for depreciation and
                other deductions. Accelerated depreciation is used for tax
                reporting and straight-line depreciation is used for financial
                statement reporting. The Company accounted for these differences
                using the liability method, whereby the related tax consequences
                are based on the applicable tax rate.

             Cash and cash equivalents:

                For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all
                highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of
                three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has
                cash on deposit with a bank in amounts which are in excess of
                federally insured limits.

     Note 3.      Long-Term Investments

                  Market value of long-term investments is approximately
                  $124,570 and $131,255 at December 31, 1996 and 1995,
                  respectively. Management deems the decline in market value to

                and manufacturing facilities in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The

                the Company's proportionate share of real estate taxes, special
                assessments, insurance premiums and building operating expenses.
                Total payments under this agreement approximated $542,000 and
                $578,000 for the years ending December 31, 1996 and 1995,
                respectively. Future minimum lease payments amount to
                approximately $308,000 annually for each of the years 1997
                through 2001.

                open accounts payable invoices at December 31, 1996 and 1995,

        The Company was indebted to its stockholder/officer on an unsecured note
        payable at December 31, 1996 in the amount of $432,000. The note has an
        interest rate of 1.5% over prime and is subordinated to the Norwest Bank

        the proceeds to pay off another stockholder note payable and lend the
        stockholder $937,315 on a prime plus 1.5% unsecured note receivable.
        Interest paid on that note payable totaled $73,415 during the year ended

Note 9. Purchase of Treasury Stock

        On May 23, 1988, the Company purchased 2,288 shares of common stock from
        a 50% shareholder for a total cash consideration of $2,188,897. This
        amount represented the value of the shareholder's interest in the
        Company. The purchase was made pursuant to a settlement agreement dated
        May 23, 1988, which was the resolution of a lawsuit filed February 11,
        1985. The lawsuit essentially arose from a shareholder dispute, and no
        damages were asked from the Company. However, it was determined by
        management to be in the best interest of the Company, for the Company to
        purchase the common shares for the treasury.

                                  INTRODUCTION

                                   (Unaudited)




The unaudited pro forma combined financial information presented herein gives
effect to the purchase of all outstanding shares of TCR Corporation by
TransTechnology Corporation effective April 17,1997. TransTechnology
Corporation's fiscal year ends on March 31, and TCR Corporation's fiscal year
ends on December 31.

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet data at March 31, 1997 combines
the historical balance sheets of TransTechnology Corporation and its
subsidiaries, and TCR Corporation. The pro forma adjustments to the balance
sheet assumes that the acquisition was consummated at the end of the period
being presented.

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations data being presented
for the twelve month period ended March 31, 1997 combines TCR Corporation's
twelve months of operations ended December 31, 1996 with TransTechnology
Corporation's twelve months of operations ended March 31, 1997. The pro forma
adjustments to the statement of operations assumes that the acquisition was
consummated at the beginning of the period being presented.

TransTechnology Corporation expects to achieve certain reductions in costs
subsequent to the purchase of TCR Corporation as a result of the elimination of
duplicative ownership efforts. To comply with the Commission's pro forma
reporting rules, the cost reductions reflected in the accompanying Unaudited Pro
Forma Combined Statement of Operations have been limited to specific salary and
benefit costs, and certain leasing transactions of the seller's affiliate, that
are expected to be eliminated after the acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements are intended for
informational purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the future
financial position or future results of operations of the combined company, or
of the financial position or results of operations of the combined company that
would have actually occurred had the acquisition taken place as of the date or
for the periods presented. These unaudited pro forma combined financial
statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements, including the accompanying notes, of TCR
Corporation which are attached and of TransTechnology Corporation which are
incorporated by reference from the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1997.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments have been made that are necessary
to present fairly the pro forma data.
