              CLARION TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
    NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Clarion
Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "Clarion"
or the "Company") have been prepared, without audit, in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments,
consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments, considered
necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial
statements have been made.  Certain amounts for prior periods have been
reclassified to conform with the current period financial statement
presentation.  Results for interim periods should not be considered
indicative of results to be expected for a full year.  Reference should be
made to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December
31, 1999.

Effective January 1, 2000, the Company adopted 4-4-5 quarterly accounting
cycles.  The first quarter of 2000 ended on April 1, whereas the first
quarter of 1999 ended on March 31.  The Company's 2000 first quarter
results from operations would have been approximately the same if the
current year quarter had ended on March 31 rather than on April 1.


NOTE 2.  INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in,
first-out basis, or market.  Components of inventories are summarized as

                                              ============   ============

Diluted EPS was the same as basic EPS for each of the periods presented.
The diluted share base excluded all common stock equivalents because of the
anti-dilutive effect caused by the Company's operating losses designated to

On February 29, 2000, the Company entered into a new revolving credit
agreement that provides for up to $15.0 million in borrowings through
February 2003.  The Company borrowed $11.8 million under the new credit
facility and used the proceeds to pay existing bank debt.  At the option of
the Company, interest is payable monthly based on LIBOR plus 3.50% or the
bank's prime rate plus 1.00%.  In February 2001, interest will be variable
based on the Company's leverage ratio and will range between LIBOR plus
1.75% to 3.00% or prime rate, to prime rate plus 1.00%, at the option of
the Company.  In addition, a commitment fee is payable on the unused
portion of the credit line.  At April 1, 2000, the Company had
approximately $1.1 million of unused borrowing capacity under the credit
agreement's most restrictive debt covenant.  Borrowings are collateralized
by all tangible and intangible assets.

Concurrent with the revolving credit agreement, the Company entered into a
$12.0 million term loan agreement that requires periodic interest payments
and a lump sum payment of principal in February 2003.  Proceeds were used
to pay existing bank debt.  At the option of the Company, interest is
payable based on LIBOR plus 1.00% or the bank's prime rate.  Borrowings are
collateralized by all tangible and intangible assets, in addition to
certain personal guarantees.  Two members of Clarion's Board of Directors
and a Clarion executive officer have guaranteed $3 million of the term debt
by each providing $1 million in standby letters of credit.  Two other
individuals not related to the Company have guaranteed the remaining $9
million; one by providing a standby letter of credit for $3 million, the
other by making a $6 million cash deposit with one of the lending banks.

NOTE 5.  LONG-TERM DEBT (continued)

The Company has agreed to pay, on behalf of the guarantors providing
standby letters of credit, the 1% annual fees due under the letters of
credit plus 1% per month on the guaranteed amount.  The Company is paying
the guarantor providing the cash deposit a 2% fee per month.

On February 29, 2000, in connection with the acquisition of Drake, as
described further in Note 4, the Company entered into a $26.0 million term
loan agreement with a variable interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.50% or prime
rate plus 1.00%, at the option of the Company.  The term loan requires
periodic payments of principal and interest through February 2003.  The
Company also has a term loan, unrelated to the acquisition of Drake, with a
fixed interest rate of 9.0%, which requires periodic payments of principal
and interest through October 2001.  Borrowings are collateralized by all
tangible and intangible assets.

On February 1, 2000, in connection with the acquisition of Drake, as
described further in Note 4, the Company issued two promissory notes
totaling $6.0 million with a fixed interest rate of 12.0% that requires
periodic payments of interest through January 2005 with a balloon payment
in February 2005.  The Company also issued a $135,000 non-interest-bearing
promissory note that requires periodic payments through January 2002.

Maturities of long-term debt for the next five years subsequent to April 1,
2000 are as follows:

  At April 1, 2000:
    2000                                                  $ 3,482,000

NOTE 6.  GEOGRAPHIC AND SEGMENT DATA

The Company operates in a single geographic location, North America, and in
a single reportable business segment, plastic injection molding.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those
described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
1999.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.

OVERVIEW

The following information should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and
the Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation set forth in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
1999.

The Company is a full-service custom injection molder, providing rapid
prototyping and design models, mold design and engineering services, mold
manufacturing, injection molding and post-molding assembly to a diverse
base of customers in the automotive, heavy truck, office furniture and
consumer goods industries.

Clarion's business strategy is to create, through acquisitions and internal
growth, one of the largest full-service custom injection molding business
in the highly fragmented plastic injection-molding industry to serve
customers in the Company's target markets.

As described in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements, the Company entered into two business combinations during 1999
that were accounted for as poolings of interests.  In April, the Company
acquired Mito Plastics, Inc. a full-service product development company
providing program management, industrial design, engineering, prototyping
and tooling from concept through delivery of complete assemblies all under
one roof.  In August, the Company acquired Wamar Tool & Machine Co., a
fully equipped mold making and mold repair firm that serves the plastic
injection molding industry.  Accordingly, all financial data in the
Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation is reported as
though these companies have always been one entity.

The Company also entered into two business combinations during 1999 and one
during 2000 that were accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting, as described in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements, that impact the comparability of results between the
periods presented.  On August 31, 1999, the Company acquired Wamar
Products, Inc. a plastic injection molder and assembler of plastic
component and finished products.  On October 1, 1999, the Company acquired
Double "J" Molding, Inc., a tier two automotive supplier of plastic
injection molded parts.  On February 1, 2000, the Company acquired the
assets of Drake Products Corporation, a full-service plastic injection
molding firm.  Accordingly, financial data in the Management's Discussion
and Analysis or Plan of Operations only include operating results for these
companies subsequent to their effective acquisition dates.

                                                ========       ========


Net sales

Net sales for the first three months of 2000 was $25.1 million, an increase
of $22.0 million over net sales of $3.1 million for the corresponding
period of 1999.  Of this increase, $19.8 million was due to the
acquisitions of Wamar Products in August 1999, Double J in September 1999
and Drake in February 2000.  The remaining sales increase was primarily
attributable to higher sales volume at the Company's new Montpelier, Ohio
large-tonnage facility, which was in its start-up phase during the first
quarter of 1999.












                                  -12-


Gross profit

Gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, for the first quarter of 2000
was 14.8% compared to 1.4% for the corresponding period of 1999.  The
improvement in gross margin for the first quarter of 2000 was primarily
attributable to the gross profit recorded by the Company's small and medium
tonnage injection molding facilities, which were acquired subsequent to the
first quarter of 1999.  Adversely impacting the gross margin for the first
quarter of 2000 was the under absorption of overhead costs at the Company's
new Montpelier, Ohio large tonnage injection molding facility that is
operating below practical capacity.  Management believes that business
booked or anticipated to be booked later in 2000 and beyond should bring
this facility closer to normal operating levels.  Manufacturing overhead at
this facility is being minimized where possible.  Gross margin for the
first quarter of 1999 was also adversely impacted by the under absorption
of fixed costs associated with the start-up operations at the Montpelier
facility; the Company's sole injection molding facility at the time.

Excluding the acquisitions of Wamar Products, Double J, and Drake, gross
profit, as a percentage of net sales, for the first quarter of 2000 would
have been approximately 5.4%, as compared to 1.4% for the corresponding
period of 1999.  The improvement in gross margin on a comparative basis was
primarily attributable to increased absorption of overhead costs, as a
result of higher sales volume at the Montpelier large tonnage facility,
which was in its start-up phase during the first quarter of 1999.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2000
increased $0.8 million to $2.3 million from $1.5 million for the comparable
quarter in 1999.  This increase was primarily the result of the acquisition
of Drake during the first quarter of 2000.  As a percentage of net sales,
selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 49.9% to 9.3%.
This decrease, as a percentage of net sales, was indicative of higher net
sales in the first quarter of 2000, as compared to the first quarter of
1999 when significant costs were incurred, in relation to the sales volume,
to support the Company's long-term strategy of growth through acquisitions.
The Company anticipates that the level of selling, general and
administrative expenses will continue to increase in order to support
continued growth and expansion, however, management believes that selling,
general and administrative expenses will continue to decrease as a
percentage of net sales.

Interest expense

Interest expense for the first quarter of 2000 increased $1.1 million to
$1.2 million from $0.1 million for the comparable quarter in 1999.  The
increase was the result of additional interest expense being recognized due
to higher debt levels for financing the new Montpelier facility, certain
acquisition funding and general working capital needs.


                                  -13-


Income taxes

The Company's effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2000 and
1999 differed from the applicable statutory rate primarily due to
nondeductible goodwill amortization, the effect of Michigan Single Business
tax, and fully reserving future federal income tax benefits, which are
comprised primarily of net operating loss carryforwards.

Net income (loss)

Net income for the first quarter of 2000 was $80,000 compared to a net loss
of $1.5 million for the first quarter of 1999.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company had a total cash balance of $2.1 million at April 1, 2000.  The
Company's primary cash requirements are for working capital needs, capital
expenditures, business acquisitions, debt service obligations and preferred
stock dividends.  These cash requirements have increased due to the growth
of the Company and are expected to continue to increase as a result of
future anticipated growth.  Historically, the Company's main sources of
cash have been from the sale of equity securities and bank borrowings.  The
Company believes that cash generated from operations, together with amounts
available under its revolving credit facility and any other available
financing source, will be adequate to permit the Company to meet its cash
requirements, although no assurance can be given in this regard.  Changes
in the Company's economic condition or other unforeseen circumstances could
cause these funds to not be available to meet its cash requirements.  In
addition, the Company intends to pursue, as part of its business strategy,
future growth through acquisitions that may involve the expenditure of
significant funds.  Depending upon the nature, size and timing of future
acquisitions, the Company may be required to obtain additional debt or
equity financing in connection with such transactions.  There can be no
assurance, however, that additional financing will be available to the
Company, when and if needed, on acceptable terms or at all.

Net cash used by operating activities decreased to $1.6 million for the
first quarter of 2000 from $3.1 million for the first quarter of 1999.  The
decrease in cash used by operating activities was primarily attributable to
improved profitability.  Working capital at April 1, 2000 was a negative
$0.7 million, compared with a positive $5.7 million at December 31, 1999.
The decrease reflected the cash paid and current portion of long-term debt
incurred in connection with the Drake acquisition.

During the first quarter of 2000, the Company used cash of $0.4 million for
capital expenditures, $27.3 million, net of cash acquired, for acquisitions
and $425,000 to pay dividends to preferred shareholders.




                                  -14-


On February 1, 2000, the Company acquired substantially all the assets of
Drake Products Corporation, a full-service plastic injection molding firm
based in Greenville, Michigan.  Consideration for the acquisition included
2 million shares of Clarion common stock, approximately $25 million in cash
and the issuance of two subordinated promissory notes totaling
approximately $5.1 million.  The Company also assumed approximately $6.7
million of liabilities.

In a related transaction, the Company also acquired the real property used
by Drake for $2.2 million in cash and the issuance of a $1.0 million
promissory note.

At April 1, 2000, the Company's total debt was $56.7 million, of which
$49.7 million represented bank debt.  This is in comparison to the $23.8
million in total debt at December 31, 1999, of which $22.8 million
represented bank debt.  The increase in total debt resulted principally
from new long-term bank borrowings of $49.8 million and the issuance of
$6.1 million in promissory notes associated with the Drake acquisition,
offset by repayments totaling $24.6 million.  The bank debt outstanding at
December 31, 1999 was replaced by a new revolving credit facility and term
loan in February 2000.

On February 29, 2000, the Company entered into a new revolving credit
agreement that provides for up to $15.0 million in borrowings through
February 2003.  The Company borrowed $11.8 million under the new credit
facility and used the proceeds to pay existing bank debt.  At the option of
the Company, interest is payable based on LIBOR plus 3.50% or the bank's
prime rate plus 1.00%.  In February 2001, interest will be variable based
on the Company's leverage ratio and will range between LIBOR plus 1.75% to
3.00% or prime rate to prime rate plus 1.00%, at the option of the Company.
In addition, a commitment fee is payable on the unused portion of the
credit line.  At April 1, 2000, the Company had approximately $1.1 million
of unused borrowing capacity under the credit agreement's most restrictive
debt covenant.  Borrowings are collateralized by all tangible and
intangible assets.

Concurrent with the revolving credit agreement, the Company entered into a
$12.0 million term loan agreement that requires periodic interest payments
and a lump sum payment of principal in February 2003.  Proceeds were used
to pay existing bank debt.  At the option of the Company, interest is
payable based on LIBOR plus 1.00% or the bank's prime rate.  Borrowings are
collateralized by all tangible and intangible assets, in addition to
certain personal guarantees.  Two members of Clarion's Board of Directors
and a Clarion executive officer have guaranteed $3 million of the term debt
by each providing $1 million in standby letters of credit.  Two other
individuals not related to the Company have guaranteed the remaining $9
million; one by providing a standby letter of credit for $3 million, the





                                  -15-


other by making a $6 million cash deposit with one of the lending banks.
The Company has agreed to pay, on behalf of the guarantors providing
standby letters of credit, the 1% annual fees due under the letters of
credit plus 1% per month on the guaranteed amount.  The Company is paying
the guarantor providing the cash deposit a 2% fee per month.

On February 29, 2000, in connection with the acquisition of Drake, the
Company entered into a $26.0 million term loan agreement with a variable
interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.50% or prime rate plus 1.00%, at the option
of the Company.  The loan requires monthly principal payments of $250,000
through February 2001, $333,333 through February 2002, and $416,667 through
January 2003, plus interest.  A final principal payment of $14.4 million
plus interest is due in February 2003.  Borrowings are collateralized by
all tangible and intangible assets.

Debt covenants covering the new credit facilities require the Company to
maintain certain fixed charge coverage and leverage ratios.  Other
provisions establish minimum tangible net worth and EBITDA targets, and
limit capital expenditures and Company indebtedness.  There are also
restrictions on the payment of dividends.

On February 1, 2000, in connection with the acquisition of Drake, the
Company issued two promissory notes totaling $6.0 million with a fixed
interest rate of 12% that requires periodic payments of interest through
January 2005 with a balloon payment in February 2005.  The Company also
issued a $135,000 non-interest-bearing promissory note that requires
periodic payments through 2002.

TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The Company has net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards for tax purposes
that are available to offset future taxable income.  However, there are
federal tax laws that restrict or eliminate NOL carryforwards when certain
changes of control occur.  A 50% change of control, which is calculated
over a rolling three-year period, may cause the Company to lose some or all
of its NOL carryforward benefits.  Due to the significant number of equity
transactions that have occurred in recent years the Company believes there
have been changes in control, however, the Company also believes there are
currently no restrictions that would eliminate the future cash benefits
from utilizing its NOL carryforwards.  As the Company executes it strategy
of growth through acquisitions, there are likely to be more transactions in
the future involving private or public sales of equity securities.  The
Company cannot make any assurances that such transactions will not result
in the loss of NOL carryforward benefits in the future due to changes in
control.







                                  -16-


INFLATION

The Company does not believe that sales of its products are affected
materially by inflation, although there can be no assurance that inflation
will not affect sales in the future.  The Company does believe that its
financial performance could be adversely affected by inflation in the
plastic resin market.  The primary plastic resins used by the Company are
produced from petrochemical feedstock mostly derived from natural gas
liquids.  Supply and demand cycles in the petrochemical industry, which are
often impacted by OPEC policies, can cause substantial price fluctuations.
Consequently, plastic resin prices may increase as a result of changes in
natural gas liquid prices and the capacity, supply and demand for resin and
petrochemical feedstock from which they are produced.

In many instances the Company has been able to pass through changes in the
cost of its raw materials to customers in the form of price increases.
However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to continue
such pass throughs, or that the timing of such pass throughs will coincide
with the Company's increased costs.  To the extent that increases in the
cost of plastic resin cannot be passed on to customers, or that the
duration of time lags associated with a pass through becomes significant,
such increases may have an adverse impact on gross profit margins and the
overall profitability of the Company.

YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE

Many computer systems and software products were designed to accept only
two digits in date code fields which could result in recognizing the entry
?00? as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000.  Consequently, such
computer systems and software products need to be upgraded to comply with
Year 2000 ("Y2K") requirements. Clarion had actively taken steps prior to
December 31, 1999 to insure that information technology systems, embedded
technology and material third parties were all prepared to process date-
related information in the Year 2000 without disruption.

As of the date of this filing, the Company has not experienced any Y2K-
related problems and is unaware of any future potential interruptions that
could result from Y2K readiness issues.  The Company continues to monitor
its operations and transactions with customers and vendors for possible Y2K
issues.

Company ahead of his own.  Such duties shall be rendered at such place or

                                  -22-


terminates his employment with the Company prior to the Company's
achievement of the Target; provided, however, that Employee's rights to the
shares shall continue in the event his employment is terminated as the
result of death or disability.

     4.4  Signing Bonus.  As a one-time bonus for agreeing to enter into
this Agreement, Clarion shall issue to Employee, effective January 1, 1999,

5.   Term of Employment.  The Company hereby employs Employee, and Employee
hereby accepts employment with the Company, for a period of one (1) year

be automatically renewed for successive one (1) year terms unless either

end of the current term.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5 to the
contrary, this Agreement may be terminated at any time in accordance with

6.   Termination.

     6.1  By the Company for Cause.  Employee's employment under this
Agreement may be terminated immediately by the Company upon the occurrence

or 9 of this Agreement;

          D.   The material failure to perform Employee's duties, and/or to
observe the written rules, regulations, policies, directions or
restrictions adopted by the Company from time to time to the extent such
rules, regulations, policies, directions or restrictions are not
inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, provided that such failure
shall not have been cured within ten (10) days after Employee is given
specific notice and an opportunity to cure such failure;

          E.   If Employee dies or becomes disabled (Employee shall be
deemed "disabled" for purposes of this Agreement if he is unable, by reason
of illness, accident, or other physical or mental incapacity, to perform

hundred twenty (120) days); and

          F.   Repeated abuse of alcohol or illegal narcotics which results

Employee.

     6.3  By Employee Upon Breach by the Company.  Upon a breach by the

by the Company under Section 6.1, except for a termination resulting from
the disability of Employee, Employee shall be entitled to all compensation
accrued but unpaid to the date of termination, but Employee shall have no
further rights to any base salary, benefits or other compensation of any
kind or nature.




                                  -24-


          Upon termination of Employee's employment by the Company under
Section 6.2, by the Company under Section 6.1 as a result of the disability
of Employee or by Employee under Section 6.3, Employee shall be entitled to
continue to receive all base salary for a period of six months following
termination and an amount each month equal to the amount which the Company
is then paying for health insurance for Employee on the same dates that he
would have received such base salary had such termination of employment not
occurred, less any sums which Employee receives from disability insurance
maintained by the Company.

          Upon termination of Employee's employment pursuant to Section
6.4, Employee shall be entitled to continue to receive one-half (1/2) of
the base salary for a period of six months following termination on the

7.   Disclosure or Use of Confidential Information.

     7.1  Confidentiality and Appropriation of Confidential Information.
During the term of Employee's employment under this Agreement and
thereafter, Employee will keep confidential and will not directly or
indirectly reveal, divulge or make known in any manner to any person or
entity (except as required by applicable 1aw or in connection with the
performance of his duties and responsibilities as an employee hereunder)
nor use or otherwise appropriate for Employee's own benefit, or on behalf
of any other person or entity by whom Employee might subsequently be
employed or otherwise associated or affiliated with, any Confidential
Information (as hereinafter defined).  Confidential Information shall
include information (not readily compiled from publicly available sources)
which is made available to Employee or obtained by Employee during the
course of his employment relating or pertaining to the Company's business
and franchise operations, including trade secrets, business and financial
information, operations information, projects, products, customers,
supplier names, addresses and pricing policies, company pricing policies,
computer programs and software or unpublished know-how, whether patented or
unpatented.  Employee agrees to cooperate with the Company to maintain the
secrecy of and limit the use of such Confidential Information.  Employee
further agrees that he is under no obligation to any former employer which
is in any way inconsistent with this Agreement or which imposes any
restriction on the Company.






                                  -25-


     7.2  Prevention of Unauthorized Release of Company Information.

Information, and shall take reasonable measures to prevent unauthorized

reproductions thereof, affecting or relating to the business of the
Company, which Employee shall prepare, use, construct, observe, posses or
control ("Company Materials"), shall be and remain the sole property of the
Company.  Upon termination of this Agreement, Employee shall deliver
promptly to the Company all such Company Materials.

9.   Inventions and Discoveries.  Employee hereby assigns to the Company

special, unique, unusual and extraordinary character requiring
extraordinary ingenuity and effort by Employee.  Employee hereby
acknowledges that compliance with the provisions of Sections 7,8 and 9 of
this Agreement (which shall survive the termination of this Agreement in
all respects) is necessary to protect the goodwill and other proprietary
interests of the Company and that the Company would suffer continuing and

     10.2 Other Remedies.  However, no remedy conferred by any of the
specific provisions of this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any
other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing
at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.  The election of any one or
more remedies by the Company shall not constitute a waiver of the right to
pursue other available remedies.

remedies shall be in addition and not in limitation of any injunctive
relief or other rights or remedies to which the Company is or may be
entitled at law, in equity or under this Agreement.

10.   Remedies.

      10.1   Injunctive Relief.  The Company and Employee recognize and
acknowledge that Employee is employed under this Agreement as an employee
in a position where Employee will be rendering personal services of a
special, unique, unusual and extraordinary character requiring
extraordinary ingenuity and effort by Employee.  Employee hereby
acknowledges that compliance with the provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 of
this Agreement (which shall survive the termination of this Agreement in

                                  -35-


all respects) is necessary to protect the goodwill and other proprietary
interests of the Company and that the Company would suffer continuing and
irreparable injury which injury is not adequately compensable in monetary
damages or at law.  Accordingly Employee agrees that the Company, its
successors and assigns may obtain injunctive relief against the breach or
threatened breach of the foregoing provisions, in addition to any other
legal remedies which may be available to it under this Agreement (including
money damages), and that any such breach or threatened breach may be
preliminarily enjoined by the Company without bond.

      10.2   Other Remedies.  However, no remedy conferred by any of the
specific provisions of this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any
other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing
at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.  The election of any one or
more remedies by the Company shall not constitute a waiver of the right to
pursue other available remedies.

      10.3   Accounting for Profits.  Employee covenants and agrees that if
he violates the provisions of Sections 7, 8 or 9, the Company shall be
entitled to an accounting and repayment of all profits, compensation,
commissions, remuneration or other benefits that Employee has realized and
may realize as a result of or in connection with any such violation.  These
remedies shall be in addition and not in limitation of any injunctive
relief or other rights or remedies to which the Company is or may be
entitled at law, in equity or under this Agreement.

      10.4   Attorneys' Fees.  If litigation arises under this Agreement
between Company and Employee, the prevailing party in such litigation shall
be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' and paralegal's fees,
court costs and out-of-pocket litigation expenses from the non-prevailing
party.

      10.5   Arbitration.  Any controversy or claim arising out of or
relating to this Agreement, except Sections 7, 8 and 9, shall be resolved
by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American
Arbitration Association then in effect.  The decision of the arbitrator
shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto, and judgment upon the
award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent
jurisdiction.  There shall be a single arbitrator, the situs of the
arbitration shall be in the County of Kent, State of Michigan, and the
prevailing party (or parties) shall also recover from the losing party (or
parties) reasonable attorneys' fees and the costs of arbitration as part of
the judgment rendered.

      10.6   Cumulative Remedies.  The remedies described in this Section
10 are in addition to and not in substitution for any other remedies
available under the law.

11.   Severability.  It is the desire of the parties that the provisions
and restrictions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent
permissible under the laws and public policies in each jurisdiction in
                                  -36-


which enforcement might be sought.  Thus, whenever possible, each provision
or restriction of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to
be effective under applicable law.  If any section or portion of this
Agreement or the application thereof to any party or circumstance shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, the invalidity or
unenforceability of that section or portion of this Agreement shall not
invalidate any other section or portion, nor shall it affect the
application of such section or portion to other parties or other

arising out of or affecting this Agreement or the rights or obligations of
any party hereunder, unless such waiver or modification is in writing, duly
executed as aforesaid.  The provisions of this Section may not be waived

                                  -42-


Termination of Employee's employment by the Company under Section 6.2, by

Up Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if neither Clarion-Drake
Acquisition, Inc. nor the Company are able to pay the amount due under the

entitled to receive all base salary and bonuses for the Term of this
Agreement.

             Upon any termination of Employee's employment pursuant to
Section 6.1, 6.2, 6.3 or 6.4, Employee shall be entitled to compensation

to any rights under COBRA or other comparable rights as provided by law.

7.    Disclosure or Use of Confidential Information; Non-Competition.

      7.1    Confidentiality and Appropriation of Confidential Information.
During the term of Employee's employment under this Agreement and
thereafter, Employee will keep confidential and will not directly or
indirectly reveal, divulge or make known in any manner to any person or
entity (except as required by applicable law or in connection with the
performance of his duties and responsibilities as an employee hereunder)
nor use or otherwise appropriate for Employee's own benefit, or on behalf
of any other person or entity by whom Employee might subsequently be
employed or otherwise associated or affiliated with, any Confidential
Information (as hereinafter defined).  Confidential Information shall
include information (not readily compiled from publicly available sources)
which is made available to Employee or obtained by Employee during the
course of his employment relating or pertaining to the Company's business
and franchise operations, including trade secrets, business and financial
information, operations information, projects, products, customers,
supplier names, addresses and pricing policies, company pricing policies,
computer programs and software or unpublished know-how, whether patented or
unpatented.  Employee agrees to cooperate with the Company to maintain the
secrecy of and limit the use of such Confidential Information.  Employee

is in any way inconsistent with this Agreement or which imposes any
restriction on the Company.

      7.2    Prevention of Unauthorized Release of Company Information.
Employee agrees to promptly advise the Company of any knowledge which he
may have of any unauthorized release or use of any Confidential
Information, and shall take reasonable measures to prevent unauthorized
persons or entities from having access to, obtaining or being furnished
with any Confidential Information.




                                  -43-


      7.3    Non-Competition.  Employee agrees that he will not render
services for any organization or engage directly or indirectly in any
business (including, but not limited to, plastics injection molding) that
is or, during the period of Employee's employment, becomes competitive with
the Company or any parent corporation of the Company, any subsidiary
corporation of the Company or any entity controlling, controlled by, or
under common control with the Company (an "Affiliated Entity"), or which
organization or business, or the rendering of services to such organization
or business, is or becomes otherwise prejudicial to or in conflict with the
business or interests of the Company or any Affiliated Entity, either (a)
during the Term of this Agreement, regardless of whether Employee remains
employed with the Company or any Affiliated Entity, or (b) for a period of
three (3) years after termination of Employee's employment with the Company
or any Affiliated Entity, whichever is longer.  Ownership, for personal
investment purposes only, of less than one percent (1%) of the voting stock
of any publicly traded corporation shall not constitute a violation hereof.

8.    Proprietary Rights and Materials.  All documents, memoranda, reports,
notebooks, correspondence, files, lists and other records, and the like,
designs, drawings, specifications, computer software and computer
equipment, computer printouts, computer disks, and all photocopies or other
reproductions thereof, affecting or relating to the business of the
Company, which Employee shall prepare, use, construct, observe, possess or
control ("Company Materials"), shall be and remain the sole property of the
Company.  Upon termination of this Agreement, Employee shall deliver
promptly to the Company all such Company Materials.

9.    Inventions and Discoveries.  Employee hereby assigns to the Company
all of Employee's rights, title and interest in and to all inventions,
discoveries, processes, standards, procedures, designs and other
intellectual property (hereinafter collectively referred to as the
"Inventions"), and all improvements on existing Inventions made or
discovered by Employee during the Term of Employee's employment hereunder.
Promptly upon the making of any such Invention or improvement thereon,
Employee shall disclose the same to Company and shall execute and deliver
to Company such reasonable documents as Company may request to confirm the
assignment of Employee's rights therein and, if requested by Company, shall
assist Company in applying for and prosecuting any patents which may be
available in respect thereof.  Inventions originated by Employee shall be
considered by the Board of Director's Compensation Committee in determining
salary and incentive compensation.

10.   Remedies.

      10.1   Injunctive Relief.  The Company and Employee recognize and
acknowledge that Employee is employed under this Agreement as an employee
in a position where Employee will be rendering personal services of a
special, unique, unusual and extraordinary character requiring
extraordinary ingenuity and effort by Employee.  Employee hereby
acknowledges that compliance with the provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 of
this Agreement (which shall survive the termination of this Agreement in

                                  -44-


all respects) is necessary to protect the goodwill and other proprietary
interests of the Company and that the Company would suffer continuing and
irreparable injury which injury is not adequately compensable in monetary
damages or at law.  Accordingly Employee agrees that the Company, its
successors and assigns may obtain injunctive relief against the breach or
threatened breach of the foregoing provisions, in addition to any other
legal remedies which may be available to it under this Agreement (including
money damages), and that any such breach or threatened breach may be
preliminarily enjoined by the Company without bond.

      10.2   Other Remedies.  However, no remedy conferred by any of the
specific provisions of this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any
other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing
at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.  The election of any one or
more remedies by the Company shall not constitute a waiver of the right to
pursue other available remedies.

      10.3   Accounting for Profits.  Employee covenants and agrees that if
he violates the provisions of Sections 7, 8 or 9, the Company shall be
entitled to an accounting and repayment of all profits, compensation,
commissions, remuneration or other benefits that Employee has realized and
may realize as a result of or in connection with any such violation.  These
remedies shall be in addition and not in limitation of any injunctive
relief or other rights or remedies to which the Company is or may be
entitled at law, in equity or under this Agreement.

      10.4   Attorneys' Fees.  If litigation arises under this Agreement
between Company and Employee, the prevailing party in such litigation shall
be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' and paralegal's fees,
court costs and out-of-pocket litigation expenses from the non-prevailing
party.

      10.5   Arbitration.  Any controversy or claim arising out of or
relating to this Agreement, except Sections 7, 8 and 9, shall be resolved
by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American
Arbitration Association then in effect.  The decision of the arbitrator
shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto, and judgment upon the
award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent
jurisdiction.  There shall be a single arbitrator, the situs of the
arbitration shall be in the County of Kent, State of Michigan, and the
prevailing party (or parties) shall also recover from the losing party (or
parties) reasonable attorneys' fees and the costs of arbitration as part of
the judgment rendered.

      10.6   Cumulative Remedies.  The remedies described in this Section
10 are in addition to and not in substitution for any other remedies
available under the law.

11.   Severability.  It is the desire of the parties that the provisions
and restrictions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent
permissible under the laws and public policies in each jurisdiction in
                                  -45-


which enforcement might be sought.  Thus, whenever possible, each provision
or restriction of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to
be effective under applicable law.  If any section or portion of this
Agreement or the application thereof to any party or circumstance shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, the invalidity or
unenforceability of that section or portion of this Agreement shall not
invalidate any other section or portion, nor shall it affect the
application of such section or portion to other parties or other
circumstances.  If in any judicial proceeding, a court shall refuse to
enforce this Agreement, whether because the time limit is too long or
because the restrictions contained herein are more extensive (whether as to
geographic area, scope of business or otherwise) than is necessary to
protect the business and goodwill of the Company, it is expressly
understood and agreed between the parties hereto that this Agreement is
deemed modified to the extent necessary to permit this Agreement to be
enforced in any such proceedings.

12.   Continuing Obligations.  Employee's obligations pursuant to Sections
7 and 8 of this Agreement and the rights and remedies of the Company
hereunder shall continue in effect beyond the term of this Agreement.

13.   Waiver or Modification.  No waiver or modification of this Agreement
or of any covenant, condition, or limitation herein contained shall be
valid unless in writing and duly executed by the party to be charged
therewith.  Furthermore, no evidence of any modification or waiver shall be
offered or received as evidence in any litigation between the parties
arising out of or affecting this Agreement or the rights or obligations of
any party hereunder, unless such waiver or modification is in writing, duly
executed as aforesaid.  The provisions of this Section may not be waived
except as herein set forth.

14.   Entire Agreement.  This written Agreement contains the sole and
entire agreement between the parties as to the matters contained herein,
and supersedes any and all other agreements between them.  The parties
acknowledge and agree that neither of them has made any representation with
respect to such matters of this Agreement or any representations except as
are specifically set forth herein, and each party acknowledges that he or
it has relied on his or its own judgment in entering into this Agreement.
The parties further acknowledge that statements or representations that may
have been heretofore made by either of them to the other are void and of no
effect and that neither of them has relied thereon in connection with his
or its dealing with the other.

15.   Choice of Law.  This Agreement and the performance hereunder and all
suits and special proceedings hereunder shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Michigan.

16.   Binding Effect of Agreement; Assignment; Merger; Dissolution.  This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their heirs, successors, assigns and legal representatives.
This Agreement shall be construed as a contract for personal services by
Employee to the Company and shall not be assignable by Employee.  In the
                                  -46-


event of the sale, merger or consolidation of the Company, Employee agrees
that the Company may assign its rights and obligations hereunder to its
successor or purchaser.  In the event of the sale, merger or consolidation
of the Company, the Company will require any successor to expressly assume
and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same
extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such sale,
merger or consolidation had occurred.

17.   Notices.  All notices, requests, demands and other communications
required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
have been duly given when delivered by hand or when mailed by certified
registered mail, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid to their
current address or to such other address as they request in writing.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement the day
and year first written above.
