     The  net  proceeds  consist  of  $17.7  million  in  cash  and a  long-term
subordinated  note receivable of $3.9 million.  The subordinated note receivable
bears interest at 7.0% per annun.

     The pro forma adjustment to cash and cash  equivalents  consists of the net
effect of (i) $17.7  million of net  proceeds,  (ii) $1.9  million cash and cash

equivalents  of Thomas  Regout  assumed to have been sold and (iii) $.9  million
income tax benefit from the sale. The pro forma  adjustment to other  noncurrent
assets  represents  the  subordinated  note  receivable  received as part of the
consideration from the sale.

     The Company's  actual  net-of-tax  loss on the sale of Thomas  Regout's net
assets will differ from the amount shown above  because of, among other  things,
(a)  differences in the net carrying value of the net assets sold as shown above
as  compared  to the date of sale and (b)  differences  in the U.S.  dollar/euro
exchange rate as shown above as compared to the date of sale.
