ITEM 1. BUSINESS

     As used herein, the terms "Company" and "PCD," unless otherwise indicated
or the context otherwise requires, refer to PCD Inc. and its subsidiaries.
However, all financial information for periods ended before December 26, 1997,
unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, is for PCD Inc.
and its subsidiaries, excluding Wells Electronics.

GENERAL

     PCD Inc. (the "Company") designs, manufactures and markets electronic
connectors for use in integrated circuit ("IC") package interconnect
applications, industrial equipment and avionics. Electronic connectors, which
enable an electrical current or signal to pass from one element to another
within an electronic system, range from minute individual connections within
an IC to rugged, multiple lead connectors that couple various types of
electrical/electronic equipment. Electronic connectors are used in virtually
all electronic systems, including data communications, telecommunications,
computers and computer peripherals, industrial controls, automotive, avionics
and test and measurement instrumentation. The electronic connector market is
both large and broad. Bishop & Associates, a leading electronic connector
industry market research firm, estimates the total 1999 worldwide market at
$25.1 billion with more than 1,200 manufacturers.

     The Company markets over 6,800 electronic connector products in three
product categories, each targeting a specific market. These product categories
are IC package interconnects, industrial interconnects and avionics terminal
blocks and sockets. IC package interconnects are specially designed electro-
mechanical devices that connect ICs to printed circuit boards during the
various stages of the IC's production and application in electronic systems.
These stages are test, burn-in and production. Industrial interconnects are
used in industrial equipment systems both internally, as input/output ("I/O")
connectors to link the rugged electrical environment of operating equipment to
the electronic environment of controllers and sensors, and externally, to
facilitate the interface between discrete factory wiring and cabling for
standard computer interconnects. Avionics terminal blocks and sockets perform
similar functions as industrial connectors, but are designed and built to
operate in the harsher environment and meet the more critical performance
requirements of avionics applications. Representative customers of the Company
include Bombardier Inc., Micron Technology, Inc., Rockwell International Corp.
(through its subsidiary, the Allen-Bradley Company) and Advance Micro Devices,
Inc.

     The Company believes it will benefit from three trends affecting the
electronics industry: (i) the increasing complexity of ICs and corresponding
evolution of IC package designs, which favor growth in PCD's IC package
interconnect market; (ii) the global nature of semiconductor manufacturers,
which requires suppliers with global design, manufacturing and marketing
capabilities; and (iii) the use of increasingly complex electronic controllers
and sensors in industrial and avionics applications, which creates
opportunities in PCD's industrial equipment and avionics markets.  During
1999, however, the Company faced a continuing sluggish market for its burn-in
sockets and serious price erosion from certain segments of this market.  See
"Forward Looking Information/Risk Factors".

     The Company's goal is to identify and expand into selected electronic
connector markets where it can establish a position of leadership. The Company
intends to increase its presence in the markets in which it participates
through internal investment in product development, and expansion of its
existing product and customer base within each market. To facilitate capital
investment, the Company continues to strengthen the balance sheet by reducing
the level of bank debt outstanding.

     The Company was incorporated in Massachusetts on November 9, 1976 under
the name Precision Connector Designs, Inc. In February 1996, the Company
changed its name to PCD Inc.

MARKET OVERVIEW

     The electrical and electronic systems which utilize connectors have
become increasingly widespread and complex, in part as a result of the
increased automation of business systems and manufacturing equipment.
Consequently, the electronic connector industry has grown in size and
electronic connectors have become more sophisticated. Demand for smaller yet
more powerful products have resulted in continued improvements in electronic
systems in general and electronic connectors in particular. Product cycles
continue to shorten and, as time to market becomes increasingly important,
equipment manufacturers seek to reduce inventory and contend with pressures to
keep up with new product innovations. The growing demand for electronic
connector complexity, coupled with reduced product development cycles and
delivery lead times, creates a need for closer cooperation between connector
suppliers and equipment manufacturers, often leading to new connector
requirements and market opportunities.

     The electronic connector market is both large and broad. Bishop &
Associates estimates the total 1999 worldwide market at $25.1  billion. This
market is highly fragmented with over 1,200 manufacturers. While many of these
companies produce connectors which are relatively standard and often produced
in large quantities, a substantial portion of the industry is comprised of
companies which produce both proprietary and standard products in relatively
low volumes for specialized applications. Fleck Research has identified over
1,100 separate electronic connector product lines presently offered in the
marketplace.

     PCD focuses its products and sales efforts in the selected key markets
listed below.

     IC PACKAGE INTERCONNECT MARKET.  In the fabrication and use of ICs, there
are three stages in which sockets may be used: test, burn-in and production.
It is the Company's objective to provide a total solution for selected IC
packages encompassing these three stages. By providing a total solution, the
Company believes it will be able to forge closer customer relationships and
gain acceptance by new customers.

     TEST - Test sockets are used primarily in semiconductor foundries. After
     silicon wafers have been cut into individual chips and packaged, certain
     electrical tests are performed to detect packaging defects and to
     grade/sort the chips based on various performance characteristics. Test
     sockets are designed for specific packages and must withstand hundreds of
     thousands of rapid insertions and withdrawals while offering high
     reliability. Because of their intensive use, test sockets have a
     relatively short useful life.

     BURN-IN - Most leading-edge microprocessors, logic and memory ICs undergo
     an extensive reliability screening and stress testing procedure known as
     burn-in. The burn-in process screens for early failures by operating the
     IC at elevated voltages and temperatures, usually at 125(degrees)C
     (257(degrees)F), for periods typically ranging from 12 to 48 hours.
     During burn-in, the IC is secured in a socket, an electro-mechanical
     interconnect, which is a permanent fixture on the burn-in printed circuit
     board. The socket is designed to permit easy insertion and removal of the
     IC before and after burn-in. Further, these sockets must be able to
     withstand numerous automated insertions and withdrawals under extreme
     thermal cycle conditions.

     PRODUCTION - Production sockets provide an electro-mechanical interface
     between the printed circuit board and the IC package. Printed circuit
     boards form the backbone of all electronic systems. The use of sockets
     allows a detachable interconnection between the IC and printed circuit
     board and benefits both the systems manufacturer and end consumer.
     Sockets provide flexibility in production by allowing manufacturers to
     produce the printed circuit board with unpopulated sockets, then populate
     the board with ICs at a later date. Sockets also make upgrading easier
     and more flexible for the consumer by allowing for the replacement of a
     chip on a printed circuit board without disturbing or damaging other
     elements of the board.

     The worldwide semiconductor market expanded at a compound annual growth
rate of 15% during the period 1978-1998, and is projected by IC Insights,
Inc., a leading research company in the semiconductor field, to grow at 16%
compound annual growth rate during the period 1998-2003

                                      3

     INDUSTRIAL INTERCONNECT MARKET.  The industrial interconnect market is
comprised of a broad range of control, measurement and manufacturing
equipment. Terminal blocks are most commonly used in this equipment to provide
an electrical link between discrete functions, such as monitoring and
measuring, and controlling devices, such as programmable logic controllers
("PLCs"), stand-alone PCs and single function controllers. The use of terminal
blocks has increased as electronic controllers and sensors in the industrial
environment have evolved to control more complex, multi-function activities.
In addition to increasing in number, these controllers and their connectors
are becoming smaller and are being configured in increasing variations.

     Increased sophistication in industrial and process control equipment has
led to a demand for flexible, modular interconnection and interface products.
Control systems are used to facilitate the interface of discrete factory
wiring and cable systems with standard computer interconnects. These interface
systems allow industrial customers to reduce installation time and decrease
cabinet space, thereby improving their overall system costs.

     AVIONICS MARKET.  The avionics market requires a diverse range of
electronic connectors that are designed and manufactured specifically for
avionics applications. Over the last few years, commercial aircraft
applications have represented an increasingly important part of this market.
The Company participates in selected areas of the avionics market with
terminal blocks and sockets that perform similar functions as its industrial
connectors but are designed to operate in the harsher environment and meet the
more critical performance requirements of avionics applications.  The two
major market sectors in which the Company participates are the 100+ seat
capacity large jet transports, and the smaller 30-95 seat capacity regional
aircraft.  Business jets are also becoming an important market segment.

     The Boeing Company estimates that total worldwide demand for new
airplanes over the next decade will be 8,900 aircraft.  The world fleet is
projected to grow from 12,600 airplanes at the end of 1998 to 19,100 airplanes
in 2008.  Over the next ten years, more than 8,900 new commercial jets - 8,675
passenger airplanes and 225 new freighters - are forecast to enter service
worldwide.  The majority of these airplanes will meet industry demand for
growth, while the remainder will replace the 2,300 airplanes that are
projected to be removed from service. Of the 2,300 airplanes projected to be
removed between 1999 and 2008, two out of three are expected to be removed
during the next five years.

STRATEGY

     The Company's goal is to identify and expand into selected electronic
connector markets where it can establish a position of leadership. The Company
intends to increase its presence in the markets in which it participates
through internal investment in product development and potential strategic
acquisitions. The key elements of the Company's strategy are:

     BE THE KEY SUPPLIER IN SELECTED NICHE MARKETS: The electronic connector
     industry services a variety of different industries with connectors that
     are often unique to particular applications within a given industry. The
     Company actively identifies and pursues those markets which have the
     following characteristics: demand for electronic connectors with
     relatively high engineering content, high degree of customer interface,
     changing technology, significant growth opportunities and a market size
     appropriate to the Company's resources.  Presently, the Company focuses
     on the IC package, industrial and avionics interconnect markets.  In each
     of these markets for the products that the Company offers, it holds a
     market position of either first or second or has a strategic plan to
     attain that position. There can be no assurance that the Company,
     however, will attain or maintain these positions.

     GROW THROUGH INTERNAL PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND EXPANSION OF EXISTING
     PRODUCT AND CUSTOMER BASE: The Company is committed to grow the sales
     revenue at a rate that is higher than the connector industry projected
     growth rate.  To accomplish this, the Company invests heavily in new
     product development.  Over the last five years the Company has spent on
     average 5.6% of net sales on new product tooling.  For 1999, 42% of sales
     were generated from products that were introduced in the last five years.
     It is the Company's strategy to continually expand the range of products
     that it offers in its existing markets and, through the additional
     synergy offered by these products as well as focused sales efforts, work
     to both grow sales volume to existing customers and to expand the
     customer base.

                                      4

     STRENGTHEN THE BALANCE SHEET: The acquisition of Wells Electronics, Inc.
     in December of 1997 resulted in the Company taking on approximately $108
     million of debt. The public stock offering of 2,300,000 shares of common
     stock in April and May of 1998 raised approximately $42 million, and the
     Company generated an additional $5.3 million and $6.5 million of free
     cash flow in 1999 and 1998, respectively.  The Company defines free cash
     flow as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures.  The
     combination of the cash raised from the public offering and the free cash
     flow, along with existing cash balances, reduced the debt to $49.6
     million as of December 31, 1999 and improved the total debt-to-equity
     ratio to 0.98 to 1.00.  Strengthening the balance sheet will provide the
     Company the flexibility it needs in the area of acquisitions and product
     development.

PRODUCTS AND APPLICATIONS

     The Company markets over 6,800 electronic connector products in three
product categories, each targeting a specific market. These product categories
are: IC package interconnects, industrial interconnects and avionics terminal
blocks and sockets. The products offered within each product category can be
characterized as proprietary, application-specific or industry standard, as
described below.

     PROPRIETARY connectors are unique Company designs that are introduced and
sold to a broad market rather than a single customer.

     APPLICATION-SPECIFIC INTERCONNECTS are products which are designed and
developed for a specific application, typically for one customer. These
products can be subsequently developed into proprietary product lines.

     INDUSTRY STANDARD connectors are normally produced in accordance with a
relatively detailed industry or military design and performance specification
and sold to the broad market to which that specification relates.

IC PACKAGE INTERCONNECTS

     ICs (which before being packaged are frequently referred to as dies) are
generally encased in a plastic or ceramic package to protect the device and
facilitate its connection with other system components. The IC package
industry offers a wide variety of evolving package designs. New package
designs are driven by the need to accommodate the increasing complexity and
higher lead count ICs. Each unique IC package configuration requires a socket
that corresponds to the package's specific characteristics.

     ICs are constantly increasing in functionality while generally decreasing
in unit cost. This leads to an increase in IC product application, thereby
driving IC unit growth. This unit growth and the proliferation of sizes and
packages drive the demand for IC sockets. A further driver of unit growth is
the establishment of new foundries, as well as the upgrading of existing
foundries.  According to IC Insights, Inc., total semiconductor demand
measured in units is expected to increase at a compound annual growth rate of
over 9% from 1999 to 2003.

     SMALL OUTLINE PACKAGE SOCKETS:  The small outline ("SO") is a plastic,
     rectangular package with leads on two sides, running along either pair of
     opposite edges. With lead counts from 8 to 86 leads, the SO houses simple
     logic, memory and linear dies. Devices tend to transition to the quad
     flat pack above this lead count. The small size, low price and surface
     mount design of the SO makes it a highly desirable package. The Company
     currently produces 170 distinct sockets to accommodate a variety of SO
     packages.

     QUAD FLAT PACK SOCKETS:  The quad flat pack ("QFP") is a plastic package
     with leads on four sides. It is used for high lead count surface mount
     applications and is characterized by lead counts typically ranging
     between 40 and 208 leads. The QFP is currently a predominant and rapidly
     growing technology for packaging of leading edge ICs used in
     microprocessor, communication and memory applications. The Company
     currently produces over 37 distinct sockets to accommodate a wide variety
     of QFP packages.

     PIN GRID ARRAY SOCKETS:  The pin grid array ("PGA") is a square or
     rectangular through-hole device that effects routing through all layers
     of the printed circuit board. The pins are generally placed on the
     package before insertion of the die. The differentiating feature of the
     PGA is that the contacts are placed in an array over the bottom of the
     packaged device, rather than protruding from the sides of the device in a
     perimeter pattern, as with the QFP. As a result, the PGA offers greater
     lead density and smaller overall profile. This makes the PGA ideal for
     devices with high lead counts, in excess of 208, the upper range in which
     the QFP becomes difficult to handle.

                                      5
<PAGE>
     BALL GRID ARRAY SOCKETS:  Similar to the PGA, the ball grid array ("BGA")
     uses an underlying substrate, rather than a lead frame, for die
     attachment. The die is then encapsulated and solder balls are attached to
     the underside of the substrate. The solder balls ultimately connect the
     package to the printed circuit board. The die is placed in the package
     prior to the attachment of the solder balls to ensure a flat surface for
     the die during processing. In some cases, the packaged BGA is referred to
     as the BGA Chip-Scale Package ("BGA/CSP") because the package is only
     slightly larger (i.e. less than 20% larger) than the die itself. Whereas
     the PGA contacts the printed circuit board at all layers using through
     hole connection, the BGA contacts the printed circuit board only at the
     surface. This allows the BGA to achieve a lower profile, lighter weight
     and smaller area on the printed circuit board due to surface mounting.

     LAN GRID ARRAY SOCKETS:  Still another grid array package, the lan grid
     array ("LGA") achieves maximum density and reduced cost by eliminating
     both pins and solder balls, and providing an array of tiny, gold plated
     contact leads on the bottom of the package for interconnect purposes.
     Because of high density and relatively low cost the LGA is primarily used
     in high lead count application specific integrated circuits ("ASICS") and
     microprocessors applications.

INDUSTRIAL INTERCONNECTS

     The Company's product areas in this market are industrial terminal blocks
and interface modules. Terminal blocks are most commonly used in industrial
equipment to provide an electrical link between discrete functions, such as
monitoring and measuring, and a controlling device. Interface modules
facilitate the interface between discrete factory wiring and cabling for
standard computer interconnects. The Company's industrial interconnects are
targeted at the industrial and process control markets and affiliated markets
and applications such as environmental control systems, food and beverage
preparation, motor controls, machine tools, robotics, instrumentation and test
equipment.

     TERMINAL BLOCKS:  Terminal blocks are used in applications where I/O
     power or signal wires are fed into a PLC or similar (and often simpler)
     control system, and a connector is required to interface between the
     electrical environment of relatively heavy wires and the electronic
     environment of controllers and sensors. The Company's terminal blocks
     connect to and capture the wires in screw-clamp terminations, and
     interface with printed circuit boards in a variety of manners. The
     Company concentrates on four major product lines within this market:
     pluggable terminal blocks, fixed mount terminal blocks, edgecard terminal
     blocks, and application-specific terminal blocks. Application-specific
     terminal blocks are developed for customers who are of strategic
     importance to the Company, represent significant potential volume and are
     recognized market leaders.

     INTERFACE MODULES:  Interface modules are interconnect devices that
     incorporate terminal blocks, high density connectors and often additional
     electronic components and are used to form the interconnection between a
     system I/O card and field equipment. Often these interconnections require
     several discrete wire and standard computer connector interconnects. The
     interface module simplifies the interconnection by incorporating both the
     discrete wire and standard computer interconnects into a rail mounted
     printed circuit board assembly consisting of terminal blocks, additional
     connectors and possibly other electronic devices. Interface modules are
     typically application-specific and may contain electronic components for
     signal conditioning, fusing and various other electronic requirements.

AVIONICS TERMINAL BLOCKS AND SOCKETS

     Avionics terminal blocks perform similar functions as industrial terminal
blocks, linking discrete wires that are individually terminated to a
connector. However, avionics terminal blocks are designed to withstand the
harsher environment and far more critical operating requirements to which they
are subject. The primary differences are that: contacts are gold plated; wires
are terminated by the crimped (metal deformation) technique rather than screw
clamps; and individual wires are installed and removed from the connector
through use of spring-actuated locking devices. The avionics connectors are
normally completely environmentally sealed through use of a silicone elastomer
sealing grommet are designed to operate in a sealed compartment.

                                      6
<PAGE>
     The Company concentrates on three major product lines in the avionics
market:

     RELAY SOCKETS:  Relay sockets are used throughout aircraft as a means to
     facilitate installation, repair and maintenance of electro-mechanical
     relays which are utilized for a wide variety of control purposes ranging
     from main control circuits to landing gear.

     JUNCTION MODULES:  Junction modules are environmentally sealed, airborne
     terminal blocks.

     APPLICATION-SPECIFIC AVIONICS CONNECTORS:  Application-specific junction
     modules have been developed in conjunction with Boeing Commercial
     Aircraft for use on the 717-737-747-757-767 series of commercial aircraft
     and the C17 military transport. Application-specific relay sockets are
     marketed to Boeing subcontractors for the 777 commercial aircraft program
     and the C17 aircraft.  Application specific junction modules which
     incorporate electronic components and circuitry into module package are
     supplied to (among others) Bombardier and British Aerospace for regional
     jet programs.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

     Currently, the Company markets over 6,800 products in a wide variety of
product lines. The Company seeks to broaden its product lines and to expand
its technical capabilities in order to meet anticipated needs of its
customers. The Company's product development strategy is to introduce new
products into markets where the Company has already established a leadership
position and to develop next generation products for other markets in which
the Company wishes to participate.

     The Company's current product development projects in the IC package
interconnect market target new burn-in sockets for package device designs such
as BGA, TSOP (thin, small outline package), CSP (chip scale package) and LGA
and BGA production packages. The Company believes, based on industry trends,
that TSOP and CSP will be the preferred package for high-volume, high-density
small outline IC devices.

SALES AND MARKETING

     The Company distributes its products through a combination of its own
dedicated direct sales forces, a worldwide network of manufacturers
representatives and authorized distributors. The Company maintains separate
sales forces for the IC package interconnect markets and for the industrial
equipment and avionics markets. For the IC package interconnect markets, the
Company employs a global direct sales force with offices in England, Germany,
Japan, and the United States, augmented with sales representatives in smaller
markets. For the industrial equipment and avionics markets, the Company
generally uses its direct sales forces and manufacturer representatives for
large customers, new product introductions and application-specific products
and uses its authorized distributors for smaller and medium-sized customers of
standard and proprietary products. The Company's sales and marketing program
is focused on achieving and maintaining close working relationships with its
customers early in the design phase of the customer's own product development
cycle.

CUSTOMERS

In 1999, the Company sold its products to over 1,000 customers in a wide
range of industries and applications. The top five customers of the Company in
1999 and 1998 accounted for 39.8% and 43.5% of net sales, respectively.  Among
customers that exceeded 10% of the Company's net sales,  Micron Technology,
Inc. accounted for 17.6% and 15.8% of net sales of the Company in 1999 and
1998, respectively.  Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. accounted for 12.7% of net
sales in 1998. In 1997, Altera Corporation and TNT Distributors, Inc.
accounted for 14.5% and 12.7% of net sales of the Company, respectively. Sales
to customers located outside the United States, either directly or through
U.S. and foreign distributors, accounted for approximately 25.4%, 21.9% and
35.8% of the net sales of the Company in the years ended 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

MANUFACTURING AND ENGINEERING

     The Company is vertically integrated from the initial concept stage
through final design and manufacturing with regard to the key production
processes which the Company believes are critical to product performance and
service. These processes include precision stamping, plastic injection molding
and automated assembly. The Company believes that this vertical integration
allows the Company to respond to customers quickly, control quality and reduce
the time to market for new product development.

     The Company seeks to reduce costs in its manufacturing fabrication and
assembly operations through formalized cost savings programs. Complementary
programs are dedicated to maximizing the return on capital investments and
reducing overhead expense.

     The Company believes it is a leader in delivery responsiveness in its
target markets. The introduction of just-in-time ("JIT") manufacturing,
inventory control techniques and quick-change, in-house production tooling
have substantially reduced delivery lead times. Production cells operate under
a JIT pull system, with customer orders assembled as received. PCD carries
minimal finished goods inventory. An additional advantage of JIT manufacturing
is the almost complete elimination of rework. Shop floor orders are relatively
small and are not handled in bulk, and problems are resolved as they occur,
rather than continuing through an extended production run.

     Wells-CTI KK, our Japanese subsidiary, subcontracts all of its product
manufacturing and assembly operations to Japanese vendors. The Company
subcontracts a portion of its labor-intensive product assembly to a U.S.-based
subcontractor with a manufacturing facility in Mexico. The Company is not
contractually obligated to do business with any subcontractor, believes it
could substitute other subcontractors without significant additional cost or
delay, and could perform assembly itself if the need were to arise.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

     The Company seeks to use a combination of patents and other means to
establish and protect its intellectual property rights in various products.
The Company intends to vigorously defend its intellectual property rights
against infringement or misappropriation. Due to the nature of its products,
the Company believes that intellectual property protection is less significant
than the Company's ability to further develop, enhance and modify its current
products. The Company believes that its products do not infringe on the
intellectual property rights of others. However, many of the Company's
competitors have obtained or developed, and may be expected to obtain or
develop in the future, patents or other proprietary rights that cover or
affect products that perform functions similar to those performed by products
offered by the Company. There can be no assurance that, in the future, the
Company's products will not be held to infringe patent claims of its
competitors, or that the Company is aware of all patents containing claims
that may pose a risk of infringement by its products.

COMPETITION

     The markets in which PCD operates are highly competitive, and the Company
faces competition from a number of different manufacturers. The Company has
experienced significant price pressure with respect to certain products,
including its TSOP and QFP products, and fixed mounts and pluggable terminal
Industrial blocks. The principal competitive factors affecting the market for
the Company's products include design, responsiveness, quality, price,
reputation and reliability. The Company believes that it competes favorably on
these factors.

     Generally, the electronic connector industry is competitive and
fragmented, with over 1,200 manufacturers worldwide. Competition in the IC
package interconnect market, however, is highly concentrated among a small
number of significant competitors. Competition among manufacturers of
application-specific connectors in the industrial terminal blocks market
depends greatly on the customer, market and specific nature of the
requirement. Competition is fragmented in the avionics market, but there are
fewer competitors due to the demanding nature of the military and customer
specifications which control much of the markets and the cost and time
required to tool and qualify military standard parts. In each of the markets
in which the Company participates, the Company's significant competitors are
much larger and have substantially broader product lines and greater financial
resources than the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will
compete successfully, and any failure to compete successfully could have a
material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations and
business of the Company.

BACKLOG

     The Company defines its backlog as orders that are scheduled for delivery
within the next 12 months. The Company estimates that its backlog of unfilled
orders was approximately $10.6 million at December 31, 1999 and $8.4 million
at December 31, 1998. The level and timing of orders placed by the Company's
customers vary due to customer attempts to manage inventory, changes in
manufacturing strategy and variations in demand for customer products due to,
among other things, introductions of new products, product life cycles,
competitive conditions or general economic conditions. The Company generally
does not obtain long-term purchase orders or commitments but instead seeks to
work closely with its customers to anticipate the volume of future orders.
Based on anticipated future volumes, the Company makes other significant
decisions regarding the level of business it will accept, the timing of
production and the levels and utilization of personnel and other resources. A
variety of conditions, both specific to the individual customer and generally
affecting the customer's industry, may cause customers to cancel, reduce or
delay purchase orders that were either previously made or anticipated.
Generally, customers may cancel, reduce or delay purchase orders and
commitments without penalty. For these reasons, backlog may not be indicative
of future demand or results of operations.

ENVIRONMENTAL

     The Company is subject to a wide range of environmental laws and
regulations relating to the use, storage, discharge and disposal of hazardous
chemicals used during its manufacturing process. A failure by the Company to
comply with present or future laws and regulations could subject it to future
liabilities or the suspension of production. Such laws and regulations could
also restrict the Company's ability to expand its facilities or could require
the Company to acquire costly equipment or incur other significant expenses.

EMPLOYEES

     As of December 31, 1999, the Company had 300 employees and 78 contract
workers. The Company's 378 employees and contract workers include 326 in
manufacturing and engineering, 31 in sales and marketing and 21 in
administration. Of the Company's U.S. employees, 54 are represented by the
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 1392.  As a result of
the WELLS-CTI restructuring program in 1999, this number was reduced to
approximately 30 by February, 2000.  The Company believes that its relations
with its employees and its union are good. The current collective bargaining
agreement with unionized employees expires on February 18, 2003.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

SUBSIDIARY ACTIVITIES

   On January 31, 1999, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, PCD Control
Systems Interconnect, Inc. was discontinued and its operations were merged
into the Company's Industrial Avionics Division.

       In August 1998, the Company initiated the process of closing its
Singapore subsidiary, Wells-Pte Ltd., and the Korean branch of its Japanese
subsidiary, Wells-CTI KK.  The Company has substantially closed these
operations in 1999 and is awaiting final tax clearance.


FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION/RISK FACTORS

     STATEMENTS IN THIS REPORT CONCERNING THE FUTURE REVENUES, EXPENSES,
PROFITABILITY, FINANCIAL RESOURCES, PRODUCT MIX, MARKET DEMAND, PRODUCT
DEVELOPMENT AND OTHER STATEMENTS IN THIS REPORT CONCERNING THE FUTURE RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND BUSINESS OF PCD INC. ARE "FORWARD-
LOOKING" STATEMENTS AS DEFINED IN THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND SECURITIES
EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934. INVESTORS ARE CAUTIONED THAT THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL
RESULTS IN THE FUTURE MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE PROJECTED IN THE
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS DUE TO RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT EXIST IN THE
COMPANY'S OPERATIONS AND BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT, INCLUDING:

     DEPENDENCE ON IC PACKAGE INTERCONNECT AND SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRIES.  The
Company's semiconductor or integrated circuit ("IC") package interconnect
sockets are used by producers and testers of ICs and original equipment
manufacturers ("OEMs"). For the years ended December 31, 1999 and December 31,
1998, the Company derived 64.5% and 71.7% of its net sales, respectively, from
these products. The Company's future success will depend in substantial part
on the vitality of the semiconductor and the related IC package interconnect
industries. The Company's acquisition of Wells Electronics, Inc. ("Wells") in
December 1997, a supplier of IC package interconnects, significantly increased
the Company's dependence on the IC package interconnect industry.
Historically, the IC package interconnect industry has been driven by both the
technology requirements and unit demands of the semiconductor industry.
Depressed general economic conditions and cyclical downturns in the
semiconductor industry have had an adverse economic effect on the IC package
interconnect market. In addition, the product cycle of existing IC package
designs and the timing of new IC package development and introduction can
affect the demand for IC package interconnect sockets. During 1999, the
Company faced a continuing sluggish market for its burn-in sockets and serious
price erosion in certain segments of this market.  Continued reduced demand
and price erosion for semiconductors and their related packages would continue
to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of
operations and business of the Company.

     DEPENDENCE ON PRINCIPAL CUSTOMERS.  Micron Technology, Inc. ("Micron"), a
provider of DRAMs, SRAMs and other semiconductor components, was the largest
customer of the Company in 1999. Micron accounted for 17.6% of the net sales
of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1999. Altera Corporation
("Altera"), a provider of high performance, high density programmable logic
devices, had been the largest customer of the Company from 1994 to 1997.
Altera accounted for 14.5% of the net sales of the Company for the year ended
December 31, 1997. Sales to TNT Distributors, Inc. ("TNT"), a semiconductor
equipment distributor, accounted for 12.7% of net sales for the year ended
December 31, 1997. The Company does not have written agreements with any of
its customers, including Altera, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. ("AMD"),  Micron
or TNT, and therefore, no customer has any minimum purchase obligations.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any of the Company's customers
will purchase the Company's products beyond those covered by released purchase
orders. The loss of, or significant decrease in, business from Altera, AMD,
Micron or TNT, for any reason, could have a material adverse effect on the
financial condition, results of operations and business of the Company.

     RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS UNDER SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY.  The agreement
governing the Company's credit facility with Fleet Bank (the "Senior Credit
Facility") contains numerous financial and operating covenants. Failure to
meet such covenants would result in an event of default under the Senior
Credit Facility. Among the operating covenants are restrictions that the
Company (i) must maintain John L. Dwight, Jr. as chief executive officer of
the Company or obtain the consent of the lenders under the Senior Credit
Facility to any replacement of Mr. Dwight; (ii) may not, without the prior
consent of such lenders, acquire the assets of or ownership interests in, or
merge with, other companies; and (iii) may not, without the prior consent of
such lenders, pay cash dividends.  The Senior Credit Facility also requires

                                      10
<PAGE>
the Company to maintain certain financial covenants, including minimum EBITDA
(earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), minimum
fixed charge coverage ratio, minimum quick ratio, maximum ratio of total
senior debt to EBITDA, maximum ratio of total indebtedness for borrowed money
to EBITDA, minimum interest coverage ratio, and maximum capital expenditures,
during the term of the Senior Credit Facility.

     The Company has experienced difficulty meeting all of the covenants under
its Senior Credit Facility.  Accordingly, in September 1999, certain covenants
were amended by agreement between the Company and its lenders.  In March 2000,
the Company obtained from its lenders a waiver of compliance with certain
covenants for the fourth quarter of 1999.  At the same time, certain covenants
were amended by agreement between the Company and its lenders through June 30,
2000.  In conjunction with the March 2000 agreement, the Company issued
warrants to its lenders covering 203,949 shares of Common Stock at an exercise
price of $4.90 per share.  The warrants are only exercisable if the Company
does not obtain at least $10 million of subordinated debt or other capital
infusions ("Junior Capital") junior to loans under the Senior Credit Facility
by June 30, 2000, or by June 30, 2000 has not entered into definitive
arrangements permitting repayment of amounts outstanding under the Senior
Credit facility by December 31, 2000.  In addition, if the Company does not
obtain the Junior Capital by April 30, 2000, the Company on May 1, 2000 would
pay the lenders a fee of 0.25% of the sum of the total outstanding principal
balance under the Term Loan plus the Revolving Credit Loan Commitment.  The
fee would be payable each quarter thereafter until the Junior Capital is
obtained.

     At December 31, 1999, the Company was in compliance with or had obtained
waivers for its debt covenants.  There can be no assurance, however, that the
Company will be able to maintain compliance with its debt covenants in the
future, and failure to meet such covenants would result in an event of default
under the Senior Credit Facility.  To avoid an event of default, the Company
would attempt to obtain waivers from its lenders, restructure the Senior
Credit Facility or secure alternative financing.  Under these scenarios, there
can be no assurance that the terms and conditions would be satisfactory to the
Company or not disadvantageous to the Company's stockholders.

     INTERNATIONAL SALES AND OPERATIONS.  Sales to customers located outside
the United States, either directly or through U.S. and foreign distributors,
accounted for approximately 25.4%, 21.9% and 35.8% of the net sales of the
Company in the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
International revenues are subject to a number of risks, including: longer
accounts receivable payment cycles; exchange rate fluctuations; difficulty in
enforcing agreements and intellectual property rights and in collecting
accounts receivable; tariffs and other restrictions on foreign trade;
withholding and other tax consequences; economic and political instability;
and the burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws. Sales made
to foreign customers or foreign distributors may be denominated in either U.S.
dollars or in the currencies of the countries where sales are made. The
Company has not to date sought to hedge the risks associated with fluctuations
in foreign exchange rates and does not currently plan to do so. The Company's
foreign sales and operations are also affected by general economic conditions
in its international markets. A prolonged economic downturn in its foreign
markets could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.  The
Company has an operating subsidiary in Japan, and sales and technical support
operations in England. Recent and continuing volatility in the Asian economies
and financial and currencies markets may have a material adverse effect on the
Company's current and planned sales and operations in that region,
particularly with respect to the Company's IC package interconnect business.
In addition, the laws of certain countries do not protect the Company's
products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of
the United States. There can be no assurance that the factors described above
will not have an adverse effect on the Company's future international revenues
and, consequently, on the financial condition, results of operations and
business of the Company.

     ACQUISITION INTEGRATION.  The Company has experienced unanticipated costs
and other difficulties associated with the acquisition and integration of
Wells Electronics, Inc.  During 1999, the Company recorded charges of $259,000
in connection with a restructuring program at Wells-CTI (see note 16 to the
Company's consolidated financial statements included in Part II).  If the
Company experiences further costs or difficulties in this regard, there could
be a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations
and business of the Company.

     FLUCTUATIONS IN OPERATING RESULTS.  The variability of the level and
timing of orders from, and shipments to, major customers may result in
significant fluctuations in the Company's quarterly results of operations. The
Company generally does not obtain long-term purchase orders or commitments but
instead seeks to work closely with its customers to anticipate the volume of
future orders. Generally, customers may cancel, reduce or delay purchase

                                     11
<PAGE>
orders and commitments without penalty. Cancellations, reductions or delays in
orders by a customer or groups of customers could have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition, results of operations and business of the
Company. In addition to the variability resulting from the short-term nature
of its customers' commitments, other factors have contributed, and may in the
future contribute, to such fluctuations. These factors may include, among
other things, customers' and competitors' announcement and introduction of new
products or new generations of products, evolutions in the life cycles of
customers' products, timing of expenditures in anticipation of future orders,
effectiveness in managing manufacturing processes, changes in cost and
availability of labor and components, shifts in the Company's product mix and
changes or anticipated changes in economic conditions. Because the Company's
operating expenses are based on anticipated revenue levels and a high
percentage of the Company's operating expenses are relatively fixed, any
unanticipated shortfall in revenue in a quarter may have a material adverse
impact on the Company's results of operations for the quarter. Results of
operations for any period should not be considered indicative of the results
to be anticipated for any future period.

     TECHNOLOGICAL EVOLUTION.  The rapid technological evolution of the
electronics industry requires the Company to anticipate and respond rapidly to
changes in industry standards and customer needs and to develop and introduce
new and enhanced products on a timely and cost-effective basis. In particular,
the Company must target its development of IC package interconnect sockets
based on which next-generation IC package designs the Company expects to be
successful. The Company must manage transitions from products using present
technology to those that utilize next-generation technology in order to
maintain or increase sales and profitability, minimize disruptions in customer
orders and avoid excess inventory of products that are less responsive to
customer demand. Any failure of the Company to respond effectively to changes
in industry standards and customer needs, develop and introduce new products
and manage product transitions would have a material adverse effect on the
financial condition, results of operations and business of the Company.

     MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH.  The Company has grown rapidly in recent years.
Such growth could place a significant strain on the Company's management,
operations and other resources. The Company's ability to manage its growth
will require it to continue to invest in its operational, financial and
management information systems, and to attract, retain, motivate and
effectively manage its employees. The inability of the Company's management to
manage growth effectively would have a material adverse effect on the
financial condition, results of operations and business of the Company.

     PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY AND PRODUCT PROTECTION.  The Company's success
depends in part on its ability to maintain the proprietary and confidential
aspects of its products as they are released. The Company seeks to use a
combination of patents and other means to establish and protect its
proprietary rights. There can be no assurance, however, that the precautions
taken by the Company will be adequate to protect the Company's technology. In
addition, many of the Company's competitors have obtained or developed, and
may be expected to obtain or develop in the future, patents or other
proprietary rights that cover or affect products that perform functions
similar to those performed by products offered by the Company. There can be no
assurance that, in the future, the Company's products will not be held to
infringe patent claims of its competitors, or that the Company is aware of all
patents containing claims that may pose a risk of infringement by its
products. The inability of the Company for any reason to protect existing
technology or otherwise acquire such technology could prevent distribution of
the Company's products, having a material adverse effect on the financial
condition, results of operations and business of the Company.

     PATENT LITIGATION. On August 21, 1995, a predecessor ("CTi") of the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Wells-CTI, Inc. ("Wells-CTI"), filed an
action in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona against
Wayne K Pfaff, an individual residing in Texas ("Pfaff") alleging and seeking
a declaratory judgment that two United States patents issued to Pfaff and
relating to certain burn-in sockets for "leadless" IC packages (the "Pfaff
Leadless Patent") and ball grid array ("BGA") IC packages (the "Pfaff BGA
Patent") are invalid and are not infringed by CTi, the products of which
include burn-in sockets for certain "leaded" packages (including Quad Flat
Paks) and BGA packages.

     In other litigation between Wells-CTI and Pfaff concerning the Pfaff
Leadless Patent, the United States Supreme Court affirmed the decision of the
United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit finding that all of the
claims of the Pfaff Leadless Patent which were at issue in that case are
invalid. Pfaff then agreed not to sue CTi or Wells-CTI for infringement of the
Pfaff Leadless Patent, including infringement based upon claims not
adjudicated in that litigation.  The litigation between Wells-CTI and Pfaff
and CTi and Pfaff relating to the Pfaff Leadless Patent was thus concluded.

                                     12
<PAGE>
     In May of 1999 Pfaff and Wells-CTi reached a settlement agreement whereby
the litigation relating to the Pfaff BGA Patent was dismissed without
prejudice and Pfaff agreed that any future litigation for infringement of the
Pfaff BGA Patent would be brought exclusively in the United States District
Court for the District of Arizona.

     The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to legal proceedings arising
in the ordinary course of business.  On the basis of information presently
available and advice received from legal counsel, it is the opinion of
management that the disposition or ultimate determination of such legal
proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position, its consolidated results of operations or its
consolidated cash flows.

     COMPETITION.  The electronic connector industry is highly competitive and
fragmented, with more than 2,000 manufacturers worldwide. The Company believes
that competition in its targeted segments is primarily based on design,
responsiveness, quality, price, reputation and reliability. The Company has
experienced significant price pressure with respect to certain products,
including its thin, small outline package ("TSOP")  and quad-flat pack ("QFP")
products, and fixed mount and pluggable Industrial terminal blocks. The
Company's significant competitors are much larger and have substantially
broader product lines and greater financial resources than the Company. There
can be no assurance that the Company will compete successfully, and any
failure to compete successfully would have a material adverse effect on the
financial condition, results of operations and business of the Company.

     CONCENTRATION OF OWNERSHIP.  The current officers, directors and Emerson
Electric Co. ("Emerson"), the Company's largest stockholder, beneficially own
approximately 34.5% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the
Company based on the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of
December 31, 1999.  Accordingly, such persons, if they act together, can exert
substantial control over the Company through their  ability to influence the
election of directors and all other matters that  require action by the
Company's stockholders. Such persons could prevent or delay a change in
control of the Company which may be favored by a majority of the remaining
stockholders.  Such ability to prevent or delay such a change in control of
the Company also may have an adverse effect on the market price of the
Company's Common Stock.

     DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL.  The Company is largely dependent upon the
skills and efforts of John L. Dwight, Jr., its Chairman of the Board,
President and Chief Executive Officer, Richard J. Mullin, its Vice President
and President, Wells - CTI Division, John T. Doyle, Vice President and General
Manager, Industrial/Avionics Division, Jeffrey A. Farnsworth, its Vice
President Sales and Marketing Wells-CTI and General Manager, Wells - CTI
Phoenix, and other officers and key employees. The Company does not have
employment agreements with any of its officers or key employees providing for
their employment for any specific term or non-competition agreements
prohibiting them from competing with the Company after termination of their
employment. The loss of key personnel or the inability to hire or retain
qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on the financial
condition, results of operations and business of the Company.

     DEPENDENCE UPON INDEPENDENT DISTRIBUTORS.  Sales through independent
distributors accounted for 19.4%, 21.9% and 38.7% of the net sales of the
Company for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
The Company's agreements with its independent distributors are nonexclusive
and may be terminated by either party upon 30 days written notice, provided
that if the Company terminates the agreement with an independent distributor,
the Company will be obligated to purchase certain of such distributor's pre-
designated unsold inventory shipped by the Company within an agreed-upon
period prior to the effective date of such termination. The Company's
distributors are not within the control of the Company, are not obligated to
purchase products from the Company, and may also sell other lines of products.
There can be no assurance that these distributors will continue their current
relationships with the Company or that they will not give higher priority to
the sale of other products, which could include products of competitors. A
reduction in sales efforts or discontinuance of sales of the Company's
products by its distributors could lead to reduced sales and could materially
adversely affect the Company's financial condition, results of operations and
business. The Company grants to certain of its distributors limited inventory
return and stock rotation rights. If the Company's distributors were to
increase their general levels of inventory of the Company's products, the
Company could face an increased risk of product returns from its distributors.
There can be no assurance that the Company's historical return rate will
remain at a low level in the future or that such product returns will not have
a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of
operations and business.

                                     13
<PAGE>
     IMPACT OF YEAR 2000. The "Year 2000 Issue" is the result of computer
programs that were written using two digits rather than four to define the
applicable year. If the Company's computer programs with date-sensitive
functions are not Year 2000 compliant, they may interpret a date using "00" in
the year field as the Year 1900 rather than the Year 2000. This
misinterpretation could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing
disruptions of operations, including, among other things, an interruption of
design or manufacturing functions or an inability to process transactions,
send invoices or engage in similar normal business activities until the
problem is corrected.

     The Company  identified its Year 2000 risk in three categories: internal
information technology ("IT") systems; internal non-IT systems, including
embedded technology such as microcontrollers; and external noncompliance by
customers and suppliers.

     INTERNAL IT SYSTEMS. The Company utilizes a significant number of
information technology systems across its entire organization, including
applications used in manufacturing, product development, financial business
systems and various administrative functions. Since 1997, the Company has
reviewed the Year 2000 issue that encompassed operating and administrative
areas of the Company.  Independent of the Year 2000 Issue and in order to
improve access to business information through common, integrated computing
systems across the Company, PCD began a worldwide information technology
systems replacement project with systems that use programs from Oracle
Corporation ("ORACLE"). As of August 3, 1999, the Company had successfully
completed the implementation of this system in its United States operations
and our Japanese implementation had been temporarily suspended.  The current
Japanese systems are believed to be Year 2000 compliant.  Prior to the
implementation of ORACLE, we found that our South Bend, Indiana location
required an update to their internal IT systems and this was achieved at a
cost of approximately $90,000. The systems that required these updates were
replaced by ORACLE.

     During 1999, the Company applied the supplemental software Microsoft
developed for its Microsoft Windows NT and Microsoft Office applications at no
additional cost to the Company.

     INTERNAL NON-IT SYSTEMS, INCLUDING EMBEDDED TECHNOLOGY. During 1999, the
Company completed its evaluation of all non-IT systems which included embedded
technology such as microcontrollers, and had been in contact with all
manufacturers of this equipment.  As a result of this evaluation, the Company
upgraded its payroll time clocks at the Peabody, Phoenix and South Bend
facilities at a cost of approximately $20,000 and also upgraded the Peabody
facility's telephone voice mail system at a cost of approximately $6,000.

     EXTERNAL NONCOMPLIANCE BY CUSTOMERS AND SUPPLIERS. During 1999, the
Company contacted its material suppliers, service providers and contractors to
determine the extent of the Company's vulnerability to those third parties'
failure to remedy their own Year 2000 issues.  These suppliers, service
providers and contractors have incurred no problems with their own Year 2000
issues that impacted the Company.

     PRODUCT LIABILITY.  The Company's products provide electrical connections
between various electrical and electronic components. Any failure by the
Company's products could result in claims against the Company. Except with
respect to avionics products, the Company does not maintain insurance to
protect against possible claims associated with the use of its products. A
successful claim brought against the Company could have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition, results of operations and business of the
Company. Even unsuccessful claims could result in the Company's expenditure of
funds in litigation and management time and resources. There can be no
assurance that the Company will not be subject to product liability claims.

     ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE.  The Company is subject to a wide range of
environmental laws and regulations relating to the use, storage, discharge and
disposal of hazardous chemicals used during its manufacturing process. A
failure by the Company at any time to comply with environmental laws and
regulations could subject it to liabilities or the suspension of production.
Such laws and regulations could also restrict the Company's ability to expand
its facilities or could require the Company to acquire costly equipment or
incur other significant expense.

     POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE.  The stock market historically has
experienced volatility which has affected the market price of securities of
many companies and which has sometimes been unrelated to the operating
performance of such companies. The trading price of the Common Stock could
also be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in
quarterly results of operations, announcements of new products by the Company
or its competitors, other developments or disputes with respect to proprietary
rights, general trends in the industry, overall market conditions and other
factors. In addition, there can be no assurance that an active trading market
for the Common Stock will be sustained.

     POTENTIAL EFFECT OF ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS.  The Company's Board of
Directors has the authority without action by the Company's stockholders to
fix the rights and preferences of and to issue shares of the Company's
Preferred Stock, which may have the effect of delaying, deterring or
preventing a change in control of the Company. At present the Company has no
plans to issue any shares of Preferred Stock. The Company's Board of Directors
also has the authority without action by the Company's stockholders to impose
various procedural and other requirements that could make it more difficult
for stockholders to effect certain corporate actions. In addition, the
classification of the Company's Board of Directors and certain provisions of
Massachusetts law applicable or potentially applicable to the Company, could
have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of
the Company. These statutory provisions include a requirement that directors
of publicly-held Massachusetts corporations may only be removed for "cause,"
as well as a provision not currently applicable to the Company that any
stockholder who acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the
outstanding voting stock of a corporation may not vote such stock unless the
stockholders of the corporation so authorize.


ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

     PCD, headquartered in Peabody, Massachusetts, operates leased production
facilities in Peabody, Massachusetts (60,000 square feet), Phoenix, Arizona
(24,000 square feet), South Bend, Indiana (50,000 square feet), and Yokohama,
Japan (3,600 square feet). The Peabody facility is responsible for molding,
assembly, manufacturing automation development and quality assurance functions
relating to industrial terminal blocks and avionics terminal blocks. The
Phoenix facility is responsible for assembly and quality assurance functions
relating to test, burn-in, and production sockets, as well as related product
design and development. The South Bend and Yokohama facilities are responsible
for design, assembly, manufacturing automation development and quality
assurance for burn-in sockets. Stamping operations for Peabody, Phoenix and
South Bend are handled at the Peabody facility.  Molding fabrication of
components for South Bend and Phoenix are handled at the South Bend facility.
The Company also maintains distribution and technical sales support facilities
in Northhampton, England. The Company believes that its facilities are
adequate for its operations for the foreseeable future.


ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On August 21, 1995, a predecessor ("CTi") of the Company's wholly-owned
subsidiary, Wells-CTI, Inc. ("Wells-CTI"), filed an action in the Unites
States District Court for the District Court of Arizona against Wayne K.
Pfaff, an individual residing in Texas ("Pfaff") alleging and seeking a
declaratory judgment that two United States patents issued to Pfaff and
relating to certain burn-in sockets for "leadless" IC packages (the "Pfaff
Leadless Patent") and ball grid array ("BGA") IC packages (the "Pfaff BGA
Patent") are invalid and are not infringed by CTi, the products of which
include burn-in sockets for certain "leaded" packages (including Quad Flat
Paks) and BGA packages.

     In other litigation between Wells-CTI and Pfaff concerning the Pfaff
Leadless Patent, the United States Supreme Court affirmed the decision of the
United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit finding that all of the
claims of the Pfaff Leadless Patent which were at issue in that case were
invalid.  In February 1999, Pfaff agreed not to sue CTi or Wells-CTI for
infringement of the Pfaff Leadless Patent, including infringement based upon
claims not abjudicated in that litigation.  The litigation between Wells-CTI
and Pfaff and Cti and Pfaff relating to the Pfaff Leadless Patent was thus
concluded.

     In May 1999, Pfaff and Wells-CTI reached a settlement agreement whereby
the litigation relating to the Pfaff BGA Patent was dismissed without
prejudice and Pfaff agreed that any future litigation for infringement of the
Pfaff BGA Patent would be brought exclusively in the United States District
Court for the District of Arizona.

     The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to legal proceedings arising
in the ordinary course of business.  On the basis of information presently
available and advice received from legal counsel, it is the opinion of
management that the disposition or ultimate determination of such legal
proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position, its consolidated results of operations or its
consolidated cash flows.

     The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on the Common
Stock. The Company currently intends to retain future earnings, if any, to
fund the development and growth of its business and does not anticipate paying
any cash dividends on the Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The Board of
Directors of the Company intends to review this policy from time to time,
after taking into account various factors such as the Company's financial
condition, results of operation, current and anticipated cash needs and plans
for expansion. The Senior Credit Facility contains a covenant that prohibits
the Company from paying cash dividends.

     On March 6, 2000, the Company issued to Fleet Bank and other various
lenders under the Senior Credit Facility warrants to purchase a total of
203,949 shares of Common Stock at a price of $4.90 per share.  No underwriters
were engaged in connection with the foregoing issuance of securities.  Such
issuance was made in reliance upon the exemption set forth in Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
         OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     As used herein, the terms "Company" and "PCD," unless otherwise indicated
or the context otherwise requires, refer to PCD Inc. and its subsidiaries.
However, all financial information for periods ended before December 26, 1997,
unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, is for PCD Inc.
and its subsidiaries, excluding Wells Electronics, Inc.

     In 1999, net sales of the Company decreased to $51.8 million from $64.4
million in 1998. This decrease was due to lower shipments of IC package
interconnect products caused by a continuing sluggish market for its burn-in
products and price erosion in certain segments of this market. The Company
realized approximately 42% of its net sales in 1999 from products introduced
in the last five years. The Company distributes its products through a
combination of its own dedicated direct sales force, a worldwide network of
manufacturers representatives and authorized distributors. Sales to customers
located outside the United States, either directly or through U.S. and foreign
distributors, accounted for approximately 25.4%, 21.9% and 35.8% of the net
sales of the Company in the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

     The following table sets forth the relative percentages of the total net
sales of the Company attributable to each of the Company's product categories
for the periods indicated.


          Product Categories                      1999     1998     1997
          IC package interconnects...........     64.5%    71.7%    42.3%

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following table sets forth certain items from the Company's
Consolidated Statements of Operations as (1) a percentage of net sales and (2)
the percentage period-to-period change in dollar amounts of such items for the
periods indicated. The information for 1998 excludes the non-recurring and
extraordinary charges related to the Wells acquisition and, in 1997, excludes
the effect of the non-recurring charge for purchased in-process research and
development. The table and the discussion below should be read in conjunction
with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND DECEMBER 31, 1998

      NET SALES.  Net sales decreased 19.5% to $51.8 million for 1999, from
$64.4 million for 1998.  The decrease was due to lower net sales in the IC
package interconnect product lines, which were negatively impacted by several
factors in 1999. First, sales volume changes in this segment typically lag the
semiconductor industry overall. The worldwide slowdown in the semiconductor
industry began to impact the Company's shipments during the second half of
1998. Although the industry began to show signs of a recovery during the
second half of 1999, the Company's sales orders did not return to early 1998
levels. Also, in 1999, certain key customers of the Company exited segments of
the semiconductor business while others lost market share to their
competitors. Finally, the memory burn-in sockets market experienced
significant price pressure due to over capacity and an increasing emphasis on
low cost, standardized products.

     GROSS PROFIT.  Gross profit decreased by $13.2 million or 35.6% in 1999
from $37.1 million in 1998. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit
declined to 46% in 1999 from 58% in 1998. The decline in dollar and percentage
terms was due to lower sales volume, pricing pressure in certain segments of
the IC package interconnect market and a shift in product mix which resulted
in a higher percentage of Industrial/Avionics net sales in 1999.  As presented
in the table above, Industrial/Avionics net sales comprised 35.5% of total net
sales in 1999 as compared with 28.3% in 1998.

     OPERATING EXPENSES.   Operating expenses include selling, general and
administrative expenses and costs of product development.  Operating expenses
decreased by $1.4 million to $13.8 million or 26.6% of net sales in 1999 from
$15.2 million or 23.6% of net sales in 1998. The decrease in 1999 was the
result of actions taken to reduce expenses in response to lower sales volume.
These actions included merging the PCD Control Systems Interconnect division
with the Industrial/Avionics division and closing the Pennsylvania sales
office during the first quarter of 1999. Cost reductions at the Wells-CTI
division instituted during the third and fourth quarters of 1998 together with
downsizing of its Japan operations during the third quarter of 1999 also
contributed to reduced operating expenses.

    RESTRUCTURING COSTS.  In 1999, the Company recorded a charge of $259,000
in connection with its Wells-CTI cost reduction program. During the year, the
Pennsylvania stamping facility was closed and operations transferred to
Peabody, MA.  The Japan subsidiary was downsized and restructure of
manufacturing operations was begun as certain assembly operations were
transferred from South Bend, IN to Phoenix, AZ.  The expenses incurred were
for severance payments of $177,000, write-off of fixed assets of $42,000,
remodeling of Japanese office of $32,000 and other miscellaneous expenses of
$8,000.  At December 31, 1999, the only accrued expenses for these
restructuring costs were for severance payments in the amount of $48,000.  The
annualized cost savings from the restructuring program are expected to
approximate $1.0 million.

    INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE).  Net interest expense was $4.6
million in 1999 as compared with $10.3 million in 1998. Net interest expense
in 1999 includes interest on the Senior Credit Facility of which the balance
was reduced by $6.1 million during the year.  As more fully discussed below,
net interest expense in 1998 includes interest on the Senior Credit Facility
in addition to interest costs associated with the Emerson financing. See
"Liquidity and Capital Resources."

    PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES.  The effective income tax rates for 1999 and
1998 were 37.0% and 41.9%, respectively.  The decrease in the effective rate
in 1999 was due to losses incurred by our Wells-CTI Japan operation, which
carries a higher effective rate than the combined U.S. federal/state effective
rate. In 1998, the Japan operation was profitable.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND DECEMBER 31, 1997

    NET SALES.  Net sales increased 116.1% to $64.4 million for 1998, from
$29.8 million for 1997.  Net sales in the Industrial/Avionic product lines
increased 5.9%, to $18.2 million. The avionics portion of the
Industrial/Avionic business segment showed the largest increase, with an
overall 10% growth from 1997.  The IC package interconnect product lines grew
more than 250% to $46.2 million from $12.6 million, which is the direct result
of the acquisition of Wells Electronics. Wells-CTI, represents the merger of
Wells Electronics and CTi Technologies, Inc. and encompasses the entire IC
package interconnect business segment.  Sales to customers located outside the

                                      20
<PAGE>
United States, either directly or through U.S. and foreign distributors, were
21.9% of net sales for 1998, compared to 35.8% of net sales in 1997.

    GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased 152.5% to $37.1 million for 1998,
from $14.7 million for 1997. As a percentage of net sales, gross margin
increased to 57.6% for 1998 from 49.3% for 1997. The increase in gross margin
was attributable to the shift in product mix to the higher margin IC package
interconnects, primarily due to the Wells acquisition. The results are also
favorably impacted by the Company's continuous cost improvements program,
which concentrates on cost reduction programs associated with the direct cost
of the product.

    OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses include selling, general and
administrative expenses and costs of product development. Operating expenses
increased 233.2% to $19.4 million, or 30.1% of net sales, for 1998, from $5.8
million, or 19.5% of net sales, excluding a write-off of acquired in-process
research and development from the Wells acquisition, for 1997. The dollar
increase in operating expenses reflects both the additional amortization of
goodwill of $4.2 million and expenses of the newly acquired subsidiary.

    INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), Net. Net interest expense was $10.3
million compared to net interest income in 1997 of $940,000. The net interest
expense represents a combination of three elements: the valuation of the
Emerson Warrant for 150,000 shares of PCD Common Stock of $2.9 million; the
prepayment penalty on the Debenture of $812,500; and the interest expense on
the Senior Credit Facility of  $6.6 million.  See "Liquidity and Capital
Resources."

    PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The effective income tax rates for 1998 and
1997 were 41.9% and 34.1%, respectively. The increase in the effective income
tax rate was due to the application of the effective tax rates for each of the
state and foreign tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates.
Specifically, Wells-CTI KK, the Japanese subsidiary of Wells-CTI, had an
effective tax rate of 50.6% for 1998.

INCOMPLETE TECHNOLOGY UPDATE

     The acquired in-process research and development ("IPR&D") which was
expensed in 1997 in connection with the Wells acquisition related to in-
process burn-in socket designs and manufacturing process for various next
generation high density IC package types. More specifically, there were six
projects for dual-sided surface mount ("SO") packages, six for chip scale
packages ("CSP"), three for lan grid array ("LGA"), two for ball grid array
("BGA"), two for test sockets and one for a miscellaneous package. Of the six
SO projects, four remain active and two were abandoned in 1998. Of the six CSP
projects, three remain active, two were postponed and one was abandoned in
1998. Of the three LGA projects, one remains active and two were abandoned in
1998. Of the two BGA projects, both were abandoned in 1998. Of the two test
socket projects and the one miscellaneous package project, one remains active
and two were abandoned in 1998. Regarding the active projects as a whole, an
additional $180,000 and $1,000,000 in capital costs were expended in 1999 and
1998, respectively.  For the active projects as a whole, net sales of $1.7
million and $150,000 were generated in 1999 and 1998, respectively.  No
additional projects other than the ones abandoned in 1998 were abandoned in
1999.  Failure to successfully develop the IPR&D projects would negatively
impact the Company's future performance and its ability to compete in the
burn-in socket market.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Cash provided by operating activities in 1999 was $9.4 million, compared
to $12.3 million in 1998. These funds were sufficient to meet working capital
requirements and to fund capital expenditures of approximately $3.7 million.
The Company currently anticipates that its capital expenditures for 2000 will
be approximately $4.4 million, which consist primarily of purchased tooling
and equipment required to support the Company's business. The amount of these
anticipated capital expenditures will frequently change based on future
changes in business plans and conditions of the Company and changes in
economic conditions.

     In December 1997, the Company obtained a Senior Credit Facility for
$90 million from Fleet National Bank and other lenders (the "Senior Credit
Facility") to finance in part the Wells acquisition. The Senior Credit
Facility is secured by all of the assets of the Company. In conjunction with
the Senior Credit Facility, PCD and Wells-CTI (formerly Wells Electronics,
Inc.) each entered into a stock pledge agreement with Fleet and the other

                                      21
<PAGE>
lenders pledging all or substantially all of the stock of the subsidiaries of
PCD and Wells-CTI. Each of PCD, Wells-CTI and certain of their subsidiaries
also entered into a security agreement and certain other collateral or
conditional assignments of assets with Fleet and other lenders. In August
1998, the Company renegotiated the Senior Credit Facility. As a result, the
interest rate premium of 50 basis points charged on approximately $40 million
of the Senior Credit Facility was eliminated. According to its terms, the re-
negotiated Senior Credit Facility will terminate on or before December 31,
2003.  At December 31, 1999 and 1998, borrowings of $49.6 million and $55.7
million were outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility at weighted average
interest rates of 7.78 % and 7.60%, respectively.

     The agreement governing the Senior Credit Facility contains numerous
financial and operating covenants. Among the operating covenants are
restrictions that the Company (i) must maintain John L. Dwight, Jr. as chief
executive officer of the Company or obtain the consent of the lenders under
the Senior Credit Facility to any replacement of Mr. Dwight; (ii) may not,
without the prior consent of such lender, acquire the assets of or ownership
interest in, or merge with other companies; and (iii) may not, without the
prior consent of such lenders, pay cash dividends. The Senior Credit Facility
also requires the Company to maintain certain financial covenants, including
minimum EBITDA, minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, minimum quick ratio,
maximum ratio of total senior debt to EBITDA, maximum ratio of total
indebtedness for borrowed money to EBITDA, minimum interest coverage ratio,
and maximum capital expenditures, during the term of the Senior Credit
Facility.

     The Company has experienced difficulty meeting all of the covenants under
its Senior Credit Facility.  Accordingly, in September 1999, certain covenants
were amended by agreement between the Company and its lenders.  In March 2000,
the Company obtained from its lenders a waiver of compliance with certain
covenants for the fourth quarter of 1999.  At the same time, certain covenants
were amended by agreement between the Company and its lenders through June 30,
2000.  In conjunction with the March 2000 agreement, the Company issued
warrants to its lenders covering a total of 203,949 shares of Common Stock at
an exercise price of $4.90 per share.  The warrants are only exercisable if
the Company does not obtain at least $10 million of subordinated debt or other
capital infusions ("Junior Capital") junior to loans under the Senior Credit
Facility by June 30, 2000, or by June 30, 2000 has not entered into definitive
agreements permitting repayment of amounts outstanding under the Senior Credit
Facility by December 31, 2000.  In addition, if the Company does not obtain
the Junior Capital by April 30, 2000, the Company on May 1, 2000 would pay the
lenders a fee of 0.25% of the sum of the total outstanding principal balance
under the Term Loan plus the Revolving Credit Loan Commitment.  The fee would
be payable each quarter thereafter until the Junior Capital is obtained.

     At December 31, 1999, the Company was in compliance with or had obtained
waivers for its debt covenants.  There can be no assurance, however, that the
Company will be able to maintain compliance with its debt covenants in the
future, and failure to meet such covenants would result in an event of default
under the Senior Credit Facility.  To avoid an event of default, the Company
would attempt to obtain waivers from its lenders, restructure the Senior
Credit Facility or secure alternative financing.  Under these scenarios, there
can be no assurance that the terms and conditions would satisfactory to the
Company or not disadvantageous to the Company's stockholders.

     In December 1997, the Company entered into a Subordinated Debenture and
Warrant Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") with Emerson Electric Co.
("Emerson"), the Company's largest stockholder. Pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement, the Company issued to Emerson a Subordinated Debenture
("Debenture") with a principal amount of $25 million at an annual rate of
interest of 10% and a Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the "Emerson Warrant")
for the purchase of up to 525,000 shares of PCD Common Stock at a purchase
price of $1.00 per share. In April 1998, the Company paid the principal,
interest and prepayment penalty of 3.25%, or $812,500, in full, resulting in
an extraordinary charge to income of $888,000, net of taxes, in the second
quarter of 1998.  Accordingly, 375,000 shares of the Emerson Warrant
terminated by the terms thereof, leaving the Emerson Warrant only exercisable
for 150,000 shares of PCD Common Stock. The Emerson Warrant expires on
December 31, 2000.

     Subject to the foregoing, the Company believes its existing working
capital and borrowing capacity, coupled with the funds generated from the
Company's operations, will be sufficient to fund its anticipated working
capital, capital expenditure and debt payment requirements through 2000.
Because the Company's capital requirements cannot be predicted with certainty,
there can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on
terms satisfactory to the Company or not disadvantageous to the Company's
stockholders.

INFLATION AND COSTS

     The cost of the Company's products is influenced by the cost of a wide
variety of raw materials, including precious metals such as gold used in
plating, copper and brass used for contacts, and plastic material used in
molding connector components. In the past, increases in the cost of raw
materials, labor and services have been offset by price increases,
productivity improvements and cost saving programs. There can be no assurance,
however, that the Company will be able to similarly offset such cost increases
in the future.


IMPACT OF THE YEAR 2000

     The "Year 2000 Issue" is the result of computer programs that were
written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. If
the Company's computer programs with date-sensitive functions are not Year
2000 compliant, they may interpret a date using "00" in the year field as the
Year 1900 rather than the Year 2000. This misinterpretation could result in a
system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations,
including, among other things, an interruption of design or manufacturing
functions or an inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage in
similar normal business activities until the problem is corrected.

     The Company  identified its Year 2000 risk in three categories: internal
information technology ("IT") systems; internal non-IT systems, including
embedded technology such as microcontrollers; and external noncompliance by
customers and suppliers.

     INTERNAL IT SYSTEMS. The Company utilizes a significant number of
information technology systems across its entire organization, including
applications used in manufacturing, product development, financial business
systems and various administrative functions. Since 1997, the Company has
reviewed the Year 2000 issue that encompassed operating and administrative
areas of the Company.  Independent of the Year 2000 Issue and in order to
improve access to business information through common, integrated computing
systems across the Company, PCD began a worldwide information technology
systems replacement project with systems that use programs from Oracle
Corporation ("ORACLE"). As of August 3, 1999, the Company had successfully
completed the implementation of this system in its United States operations
and our Japanese implementation had been temporarily suspended.  The current
Japanese systems are believed to be Year 2000 compliant.  Prior to the
implementation of ORACLE, we found that our South Bend, Indiana location
required an update to their internal IT systems and this was achieved at a
cost of approximately $90,000. The systems that required these updates were
replaced by ORACLE.

     During 1999, the Company applied the supplemental software Microsoft
developed for its Microsoft Windows NT and Microsoft Office applications at no
additional cost to the Company.

     INTERNAL NON-IT SYSTEMS, INCLUDING EMBEDDED TECHNOLOGY. During 1999, the
Company completed its evaluation of all non-IT systems which included embedded
technology such as microcontrollers, and had been in contact with all
manufacturers of this equipment.  As a result of this evaluation, the Company
upgraded its payroll time clocks at the Peabody, Phoenix and South Bend
facilities at a cost of approximately $20,000 and also upgraded the Peabody
facility's telephone voice mail system at a cost of approximately $6,000.

     EXTERNAL NONCOMPLIANCE BY CUSTOMERS AND SUPPLIERS. During 1999, the
Company contacted its material suppliers, service providers and contractors to
determine the extent of the Company's vulnerability to those third parties'
failure to remedy their own Year 2000 issues.  These suppliers, service
providers and contractors have incurred no problems with their own Year 2000
issues that impacted the Company.


ITEM 7A.  MARKET RISK

INTEREST RATE RISK

     PCD is exposed to fluctuations in interest rates in connection with its
variable rate term loan.  In order to minimize the effect of changes in
interest rates on earnings, PCD entered into an interest rate swap that fixed
the interest rate on a notional amount of its variable rate term loan.  Under
the swap agreement, PCD pays a variable rate under LIBOR and receives a fixed
rate of 5.72% on a notional amount of $35,000,000.  The potential increase in
the fair value of its term loan when adjusting for the interest rate swap
paying at a fixed rate resulting from a hypothetical 10% decrease in interest
rates was not material.

ITEM 8.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA









                      REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS



To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of PCD Inc.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related
consolidated statements of operations,  cash flows and stockholders' equity
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of PCD Inc.
and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States.  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 of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States, which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  NATURE OF BUSINESS:

   PCD Inc. ("the Company") is engaged principally in designing, manufacturing
and marketing electronic connectors for use in integrated circuit ("IC")
package interconnect applications, industrial equipment and avionics.
Electronic connectors are used in virtually all electronic systems, including
data communications, telecommunications, computers and computer peripherals,
industrial controls, automotive, avionics and test and measurement
instrumentation.


2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

   BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

   The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated.

   REVENUE RECOGNITION

   Revenue is recognized upon shipment to customers. The Company grants to
certain of its distributors limited return and stock rotation rights.
Historically, the Company's return rate has been insignificant.

   CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

   The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or fewer to be cash equivalents. The Company
had all its cash in interest bearing accounts at December 31, 1999 and
December 31, 1998.

 CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

   Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables.
Collateral is not required for trade receivables, but ongoing credit
evaluations of customer's financial condition are performed. A greater portion
of the Company's accounts receivables are concentrated in the IC package
interconnect and semiconductor industries. The Company has not experienced
significant losses related to receivables from individual customers or groups
of customers in the IC package interconnect and semiconductor industries or by
geographic region. Additionally, the Company maintains reserves for potential
credit losses. Due to these factors, no additional credit risk beyond amounts
provided for collection losses is believed by management to be inherent in the
Company's accounts receivables.

   MANAGEMENT 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. The most
significant estimates included in these financial statements are allowances
for uncollectible accounts, allowances for inventory valuation, goodwill,
intangible assets and deferred taxes.

   INTEREST RATE SWAP

   The Company uses derivative financial instruments for purposes other than
trading and does so to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates.
Gains and losses on hedges of existing assets and liabilities are included in
the carrying amounts of those assets or liabilities and are ultimately
recognized in income.  The amounts receivable and payable are recorded as a
current liability with realized gains or losses recognized as adjustments to
interest expense.

                                      29
<PAGE>
   Under the interest rate swap contract, the Company agrees to pay an amount
equal to a specified floating rate of interest times a notional principal
amount, and to receive in return an amount equal to the difference between the
specified floating rate and the specified fixed rate of interest times the
same notional principal amount.  The notional amounts of the contract are not
exchanged.  No other cash payments are made unless the contract is terminated
prior to maturity, in which case the amount paid or received in settlement is
established by agreement at the time of termination, and usually represents
the net present value, at current rates of interest, of the remaining
obligations to exchange payments under the terms of the contract. The interest
rate swap contract is entered into with a major financial institution in order
to minimize credit risk.  This contract has a term from February 1998 through
March 2001.  At December 31, 1999, the Company was a variable rate payer of
6.21875% and received a fixed rate of 5.72% on notional amount of $35,000,000.
The fair value at December 31, 1999, was a favorable $303,889.

   INVENTORY

   Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in,
first-out method, or market.

   RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

   Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred.

79,366 and 679,468 shares, respectively, were not included in the calculation
of diluted EPS.

EQUIPMENT AND IMPROVEMENTS

   Equipment and improvements are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repairs
which neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably
prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred. Upon retirement or other
disposition, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from
the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is included in the results of
operations.

                                      30

INCOME TAXES

   The Company utilizes the asset and liability approach of accounting for
income taxes. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are
determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax
bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years
in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax expense
(benefit) represents the change in the deferred tax asset or deferred tax
liability balance. Tax credits are treated as reductions of income taxes in
the year in which the credits become available for tax purposes.

GOODWILL

   Goodwill is accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board
("APB") No. 17, Intangible Assets. Goodwill represents costs in excess of net
assets of the business acquired and is amortized on a straight-line basis over
the expected periods to be benefited, which is currently 20 years.  The
Company's policy is to assess the goodwill based on an evaluation of such
factors as the occurrence of a significant adverse event or change in the
environment in which the business operates.  An impairment loss would be
recorded in the period such determination is made based on the undiscounted
cash flows of the related businesses.  No impairment losses have been
recognized in any of the periods presented.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

   Intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 121, Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be
Disposed Of. Intangible assets are stated at cost and are amortized using the
straight-line method. Loan acquisition fees are amortized over the life of the
applicable indebtedness.  Trademarks and trade names are amortized over their
estimated remaining economic lives of 20 years, consistent with industry
norms.  Patented technologies are amortized over their estimated remaining
economic lives of 6 years.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

   The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events of
change in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the
assets may not be fully recoverable.  Each impairment test is based on
comparison of undiscounted cash flows to the recorded value of the asset.  If
an impairment is indicated, the asset is written down to its fair value.  No
impairment losses have been recognized in any of the periods indicated.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION ADJUSTMENT

   The functional currency of the Company's foreign operation is the foreign
subsidiary's local currency.  Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiary
are translated using the current exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet
date.  Revenue and expense items are translated at average exchange rates for
the period.  The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component
of stockholders' equity.  Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency
transactions are included in other income.

REPORTABLE BUSINESS SEGMENTS

   Effective for the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS
131, which requires a new basis of determining reportable business segments,
i.e. the management approach.  This approach (as contrasted with the prior
requirement which utilized a specified classification system for determining
segments) designates the Company's internal organization as used by management
for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for
business segments.  On this basis, the Company has two principal businesses
and, therefore, two reportable segments: IC Package interconnect segment and
the industrial equipment and avionics segment.  Segment results, as well as
selected geographic data, are presented on this new basis, as well as
retroactively.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

   In 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities ("FAS 133"), which initially would have been effective
for all fiscal quarters beginning after June 15, 1999.  In June 1999, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board released Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities - Deferral of Effective Date of FAS 133 ("FAS 137").  FAS
137 defers the effective date of FAS 133 until June 15, 2000.  FAS 133
standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, by requiring that an
entity recognize those items as assets or liabilities in the statement of
financial position and measure them at fair value.  The Company is currently
evaluating the impact that FAS 133 will have on its future operating
performance.


3.  ACQUISITION OF WELLS ELECTRONICS, INC.:

   On December 26, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Wells Electronics, Inc. Wells is a manufacturer of IC Package interconnect
products.  The acquisition was financed by a combination of a new bank credit
facility of $90 million of which the Company borrowed approximately
$83 million upon consummation of the acquisition and a $25 million
subordinated debenture. The acquisition is being accounted for as a purchase
in accordance with APB Opinion No. 16.

   The Company allocated the purchase price of the acquisition based on the
fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Acquired
intangible assets consist of patented technology and trade names and
trademarks valued at approximately $3.2 million and $10.4 million,
respectively.  A portion of the purchase price was allocated to these
intangible assets.  These intangible assets are being amortized over their
estimated useful lives of 6 and 20 years, respectively.  Additionally
approximately $44.4 million of the purchase price was allocated to purchased
research and development projects that were identified as having no
alternative future value and had not yet reached technological feasibility.
This amount was charged to operations at the acquisition date.

   The final purchase price of approximately $130,907,000, which was subject
to adjustment by the amount by which the net worth, with certain adjustments,
of Wells as of the closing date, as agreed to by the Company and the seller,
is less than or more than the corresponding net worth as of September 30,
1997, was determined during 1998. The aggregate purchase price of $130,907,000
included acquisition costs. Acquisition costs consist of approximately
$500,000 of financial advisory fees and $936,730 of professional fees. The
aggregate purchase price was allocated as follows:

          Current assets............................   $  7,445

4.  EXTRAORDINARY ITEM:

     In the second quarter of 1998, the Subordinated Debenture issued to
Emerson Electric was paid in full.  The Company incurred additional interest
expense of $642,500, which represents the amortized portion of the Emerson
Warrant applicable to the second quarter of 1998, and prepayment penalties of
$812,500, which represents the prepayment penalty associated with the
Subordinated Debenture.

9.  LINE OF CREDIT AND LONG-TERM DEBT:

    On December 26, 1997, the Company entered into a secured $20,000,000
Revolving Credit Agreement ("Revolver"), $30,000,000 Secured Term Loan
Agreement A and $40,000,000 Secured Term Loan Agreement B (collectively
referred to as the "Senior Credit Facility") with several banks.  The Senior
Credit Facility is collateralized by all of the assets of PCD and its
subsidiaries. In conjunction with the Senior Credit Facility, PCD and Wells-
CTI (formerly Wells Electronics, Inc.) each entered into a stock pledge
agreement pledging all or substantially all of the stock of the subsidiaries
of PCD and Wells-CTI. Each of PCD, Wells-CTI and certain of their subsidiaries
also entered into a security agreement and certain other collateral or
conditional assignments of assets.

    In August 1998, the Company renegotiated the Senior Credit Facility.  As a
result, Term Loan A and Term Loan B were combined into a single term loan.
Accordingly, the interest rate premium of 50 basis points charged on Term Loan
B was eliminated.  According to its terms, the re-negotiated Senior Credit
Facility will terminate on or before December 31, 2003.  At December 31, 1999
and 1998, borrowings of $49,600,000 and $55,700,000 were outstanding under the
Senior Credit Facility at a weighted average interest rate of 7.78% and 7.60%,
respectively.  The unused portion of the Revolver at December 31, 1999 and
1998 was $8,000,000 and $10,300,000, respectively.

    The agreement governing the Senior Credit Facility contains numerous
financial and operating covenants.  Among these covenants are restrictions
that the Company (i) must maintain John L. Dwight, Jr. as chief executive
officer of the Company or obtain the consent of the lenders under the Senior
Credit Facility to any replacement of Mr. Dwight; (ii) may not, without the
prior consent of such lender, acquire the assets of or ownership interest in,
or merge with, other companies; and (iii) may not, without the prior consent
of such lenders, pay cash dividends.  The Senior Credit Facility also requires
that the Company to maintain certain financial covenants, including minimum
fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined; minimum quick ratio, as defined;
maximum ratio of total senior debt to EBITDA, maximum ratio of total
indebtedness for borrowed money to EBITDA, minimum interest coverage ratio,
maximum capital expenditures, as defined, during the terms of the Senior
Credit Facility.

    In March 2000, the Company obtained from its lenders a waiver of
compliance with certain covenants for the fourth quarter of 1999.  In
addition, certain covenants were amended by agreement between the Company and
its lenders through June 30, 2000.  In conjunction with the March 2000
agreement, the Company issued warrants to its lenders covering a total of
203,949 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.90 per share.  The
warrants are only exercisable if the Company does not obtain at least $10
million of subordinated debt or other capital infusions ("Junior Capital")
junior to loans under the Senior Credit Facility by June 30, 2000, or by June
30, 2000 has not entered into definitive agreements permitting repayment of
amounts outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility by December 31, 2000.  In
addition, if the Company does not obtain the Junior Capital by April 30, 2000,
the Company on May 1, 2000 would pay the lenders a fee of 0.25% of the sum of
the total outstanding principal balance under the Term Loan plus the Revolving
Credit Loan Commitment.  The fee would be payable each quarter thereafter
until the Junior Capital is obtained.  At December 31, 1999, the Company was
in compliance with or had obtained waivers for its debt covenants.

    Long-term debt consists of the following:

                                                    1999     1998

10. SUBORDINATED DEBENTURE:

    On December 26, 1997, the Company entered into a Subordinated Debenture
and Warrant Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") with Emerson Electric
Co. ("Emerson"), the Company's largest stockholder. Pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement, the Company issued to Emerson a Subordinated Debenture
("Debenture") with a principal amount of $25 million at an annual rate of
interest of 10% and a Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the "Emerson Warrant")
for the purchase of up to 525,000 shares of PCD Common Stock at a purchase
price of $1.00 per share.  In April 1998, the Company paid the principal,
interest and prepayment penalty of 3.25%, or $812,500, in full.  Accordingly,
375,000 shares of the Emerson Warrant terminated by the terms thereof, leaving
the Emerson Warrant only exercisable for 150,000 shares of PCD Common Stock.
The Emerson Warrant expires on December 31, 2000.

    The deferred tax consequences of temporary differences in reporting items
for financial statement and income tax purposes are recognized, if
appropriate. Realization of the future tax benefits related to the deferred
tax assets is dependent on many factors, including the Company's ability to
generate taxable income. Future tax benefits are recognized to the extent that
realization of such benefits is more likely than not.

    At December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, for state tax purposes, the
Company has net operating losses of approximately $13,607,000 and $5,945,000,
respectively.  These losses begin to expire after 2001.  In addition, the
Company has a foreign tax credit carryforward of approximately $222,000 and
$156,000 at December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively. These
credits begin to expire after 2003.  The Company does not provide for U.S.

13. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY:

STOCK OPTIONS:

    DIRECTORS STOCK PLAN

    The Company's 1996 Eligible Directors Stock Plan (the "Directors Stock
Plan") was approved by the Board of Directors on January 30, 1996 and
thereafter by the Company's stockholders. Under the Directors Stock Plan,
commencing with the 1997 annual meeting of stockholders, each director who is
not an officer or employee of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company (an
"outside director") who has not previously been granted an option to purchase
shares of Common Stock will be granted, on the thirtieth day after such
meeting, an option to purchase 3,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise
price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant. In addition, on the
thirtieth day after such meeting, each outside director will be granted an
option at each annual meeting of stockholders to purchase 1,500 shares of
Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date
of grant. A total of 36,000 shares of Common Stock are available for awards
under the Directors Stock Plan. Each option shall vest 6 months after, and
expire 10 years from, the date of grant of such option. As of December 31,
1999, 16,500 shares of the Company's common stock were available for future
grants and all of the 19,500 options which are outstanding under the 1996
Directors Stock Plan were exercisable.  No options may be granted under the
Directors Stock Plan after January 29, 2006.

    1996 STOCK PLAN

    The Company's 1996 Stock Plan was approved by the Board of Directors on
January 30, 1996, and thereafter by the Company's stockholders. The 1996 Stock
Plan provides for the grant or award of stock options, restricted stock and
other performance awards which may or may not be denominated in shares of
Common Stock or other securities (collectively, the "Awards"). Stock options
granted under the 1996 Stock Plan may be either incentive stock options or
non-qualified options. The 1996 Stock Plan is administered by the Compensation
Committee. Subject to the provisions of the 1996 Stock Plan, the Committee has
the authority to designate participants, determine the types of Awards to be
granted, the number of shares to be covered by each Award, the time at which
each Award is exercisable or may be settled, the method of payment and any
other terms and conditions of the Awards. While the Committee determines the
prices at which options and other Awards may be exercised under the 1996 Stock
Plan, the exercise price of an option shall be at least 100% of the fair
market value (as determined under the terms of the 1996 Stock Plan) of a share
of Common Stock on the date of grant. The aggregate number of shares of Common
Stock available for awards under the Plan is 324,000. No option shall be
exercisable with respect to any shares later than 10 years after the date of
grant of such options or 5 years in the case of incentive options granted to
the owner of stock possessing more than 10% of the value of all classes of
stock of the Company. Vesting is determined in the sole discretion of the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and the typical vesting plan
is in four approximately equal annual installments, the first of which vests
on the date of grant. As of December 31, 1999, 86,500 shares of the Company's
common stock were available for future grants and 82,501 of the 231,000
options which are outstanding under the 1996 Stock Plan were exercisable.  No
awards may be made under the 1996 Stock Plan after January 29, 2006.

    1992 STOCK OPTION PLAN

    The Company's 1992 Stock Option Plan as amended on January 30, 1996
provided for the grant or award of stock options, which may be either
incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options to key employees and
directors. The Compensation Committee administers the 1992 Stock Option Plan.
No option shall be exercisable with respect to any shares later than 10 years
after the date of grant of such options or 5 years in the case of incentive
options granted to the owner of stock possessing more than 10% of the value of
all classes of stock of the Company. Vesting is determined in the sole
discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and the
typical vesting plan is in four approximately equal annual installments, the
first of which vests on the date of grant. As of December 31, 1999, no shares
of the Company's common stock were available for future grants and all 402,850
options outstanding are exercisable.

    The following table summarizes the transactions from these plans:

    For the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, options to purchase
504,851, 560,768 shares and 630,685 shares, respectively, of Common Stock were
exercisable with the remaining options becoming exercisable at various dates
through December 26, 2002. The Company recorded deferred compensation of
$239,000 for the difference between fair value and exercise price for options
granted in 1995 and such deferred compensation was amortized over the option
vesting period.

    Generally, when shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of incentive
stock options are sold within one year of exercise or within two years from
the date of grant, the Company derives a tax deduction measured by the amount
that the fair market value exceeds the option price at the date the options
are exercised. When nonqualified stock options are exercised, the Company
derives a tax deduction measured by the amount that the fair market value
exceeds the option price at the date the options are exercised.

    SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE FOR STOCK BASED COMPENSATION:

    The Company has three stock-based compensation plans, which are described
above. In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation. SFAS 123 is effective for periods beginning after December 15,
1995. SFAS 123 requires that companies either recognize compensation expense
for grants of stock, stock options, and other equity instruments based on fair
value, or provide pro forma disclosure of net income and earnings per share in
the notes to the financial statements. The Company adopted the disclosure
provisions of SFAS 123 in 1996 and has applied APB Opinion 25 and related
Interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost
has been recognized for its stock option plans. Had compensation cost for the
Company's stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair
value at the grant dates as calculated in accordance with SFAS 123, the
Company's net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 would have been reduced to the pro forma
amounts indicated below:

14. PROFIT SHARING PLAN:

    The Company has Employee Savings and Profit Sharing Plans (the "Plans")
under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  All
employees of the Company, after reaching the applicable service level, are
eligible to participate in the Plans.  A participating employee may elect to
defer on a pre-tax basis up to 15% of his or her salary.  This amount, plus a
matching amount provided by the Company, is contributed to the Plan.  Company
contributions to the Plans for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and
1997 amounted to $210,170 $190,000 and $93,000, respectively.

                     INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors
Wells Electronics, Inc.:

   We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Wells
Electronics, Inc. and subsidiaries as of May 3, 1997 (Successor) and the
related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash
flows for the 53 weeks ended May 3, 1997 (Successor period), the 48 weeks
ended April 27, 1996.  These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

   We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

   In our opinion, the aforementioned Successor consolidated financial
statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Wells Electronics, Inc. and subsidiaries as of May 3, 1997, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for the Successor period, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.  Further, in our opinion, the
aforementioned Predecessor consolidated financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Wells Electronics, Inc.
and subsidiaries as of April 27, 1996, and the results of their operations and
their cash flows for the Predecessor periods, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

   As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, effective
May 2, 1996, Siebe plc acquired all of the outstanding stock of Unitech plc in
a business combination accounted for as a purchase. As a result of the
acquisition, the consolidated financial information for the periods after the
acquisition is presented on a different cost basis than that for the periods
before the acquisition and, therefore, is not comparable.

               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                              May 3, 1997
                             (In thousands)

1.  NATURE OF BUSINESS

   As of May 3, 1997 and for the year then ended (fiscal 1997), Wells
Electronics, Inc. ("the Company"), an Indiana Corporation, was a wholly owned
subsidiary of UL America, Inc., whose ultimate parent company, Siebe plc, is a
publicly held corporation based in the United Kingdom. On April 24, 1989, UL
America, Inc. acquired Wells Electronics, Inc., and for the eleven months
ended April 27, 1996 (fiscal 1996) the Company was a wholly owned subsidiary
of UL America, Inc.

   The Company has two subsidiaries: Wells Electronics Asia Pte Ltd. in
Singapore ("Wells Asia") which is a wholly owned subsidiary and Wells Japan
Ltd. ("Wells Japan") in Japan which is approximately 98% owned by the Company.
The remaining 2% is owned by a Japanese corporation.

   The Company is principally engaged in designing, developing, manufacturing
and marketing a broad line of burn-in/test sockets and plastic carriers for
the global semiconductor industry. These products are employed in the handling
and quality assurance phase of semiconductor manufacturing.

   The Company's ultimate parent, Unitech plc, was acquired by Siebe plc, on
May 2, 1996. Following the acquisition, a new basis of accounting was applied.
The fair market revaluation of the Company's assets and liabilities resulted
in an acquisition adjustment of $8,255, net of the related deferred tax
liability of $5,962. As a result of the acquisition, property, plant and
equipment was written up to appraised fair market value of $8,535 (net
historical cost was $4,319). Additionally, trademarks and software were
written up to appraised fair market value of $10,001 (net historical cost was
$0) and goodwill of $708 was retained. There were no other significant
accounting adjustments.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

   The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wells
Electronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated.

   The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with
United States generally accepted accounting principles. 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 periods. Actual
results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates
included in these financial statements are allowance for uncollectible
accounts, inventory reserves, and warranty reserves.

   There are 53 and 48 weeks in fiscal 1997 and 1996, respectively, due to the
change in the fiscal year end subsequent to the Siebe plc acquisition.

   REVENUE RECOGNITION

   Sales and related cost of sales are recognized upon shipment of products to
customers.

                                      47
<PAGE>
   CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

   CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

   Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. The
Company provides credit to customers in the normal course of business.
Collateral is not required for trade receivables, but ongoing credit
evaluations of customers' financial condition are performed. Additionally, the
Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses. As of May 3, 1997 the
Company had no significant receivable write-offs. The Company operates in a
single segment of the semiconductor industry.

   RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

   Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred.

   INVENTORIES

   Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The inventories are
valued at standard cost which approximates the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost
method. Certain inventories are valued at the moving average cost method.

   PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

   For fiscal 1997, property, plant and equipment are stated at fair value
based upon independent appraisal. For fiscal 1996, property, plant and
equipment are stated on the basis of cost. Equipment under capital leases is
stated at the present value of minimum lease payments at the inception of the
lease.

   Material, labor and overhead costs associated with the manufacture of molds
are capitalized and classified as tooling. Acquisition cost is used to cost
molds which are purchased from outside vendors.

   Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of depreciable properties as follows: buildings and improvements,
10 to 33 years; machinery and equipment, 7 to 13 years; and tooling, 2 to 6
years.

   Equipment held under capital leases and lease improvements are amortized
using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or estimated
useful life of the asset.

   INCOME TAXES

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected
future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial
statement bases and the tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities
using enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years.

   INTANGIBLE ASSETS

   The straight-line method is used to amortize intangible assets. The
goodwill and trademarks are amortized to expense over 20 years and computer
software is amortized over 6 years.

   FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

   The accounts of foreign subsidiaries are measured using local currency as
the functional currency. For those operations, assets and liabilities are
translated into US dollars at the end of period exchange rates and income and
expenses are translated at the average exchange rates. Net exchange gains or
losses resulting from such translation are excluded from net income and
accumulated in a separate component of shareholder's equity.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF

   The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) Statement No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-
Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of, during fiscal 1997. This
statement requires that long-lived assets, including associated goodwill, and
certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used be reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. It also requires that
long-lived assets and certain intangible assets to be disposed be reported at
the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Adoption of
this statement did not have any impact on the Company's financial position,
results of operations, or liquidity.

   NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

   Net income per common share is computed using the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding.


3.  FOREIGN OPERATIONS

   The Company's net income is affected by foreign currency exchange (gains)
losses resulting from translating foreign currency denominated trade
receivables and payables of Wells Japan and Wells Asia and other realized and
unrealized foreign currency (gains) losses.


4.  INVENTORIES

   As of May 3, 1997, the total inventories of $2,540 consist of the
following: raw materials and supplies $778, work in process $223 and finished

5.  PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

   As of May 3, 1997, total property, plant and equipment of $9,224 consists
of: buildings and improvements $171, machinery & equipment $4,186, tooling
$5,499, construction in progress $576 and accumulated depreciation of $1,208.


6.  INTANGIBLE ASSETS

   As of May 3, 1997, intangible assets consist goodwill of $708, computer
software $349, and trademarks of $9,674 offset by accumulated amortization of
$574 for a net total of $10,157.


7.  ACCRUED EXPENSES AND OTHER CURRENT LIABILITIES

   As of May 3, 1997, total accrued liabilities of $2,669 consist of:
compensation and benefits $1,038, income taxes payable $605, product warranty
$300, and other accrued liabilities of $726.


8.  DEBT

   As of May 3, 1997, short-term debt consists of line of credit of $214 and
current maturities of long-term debt $54 (which constituted the total long-
term debt outstanding.

   Wells Japan has a 125 million yen (approximately $985 at May 3, 1997) line
of credit with a Japanese bank that was guaranteed by its ultimate parent. The
interest rate at May 3, 1997 was 2.375% per annum.

GAAP; provided, however, that, to the extent not already excluded from the
definition of EBITDA, the extraordinary, non-recurring pretax earnings charge
of $1,455,000 incurred by the Borrower during the Borrower's second fiscal
quarter in 1998 arising solely from prepayment of the Emerson Warrant, shall
not be included in the definition of the term Interest Expense for the
purposes of determining the Borrower's compliance with financial covenants set
forth herein for the Borrower's fiscal quarters ending on March 31, 1999, June

                                 WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders are parties to that

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained

as follows:

     1.   AMENDMENTS TO LOAN AGREEMENT: The Loan Agreement be and hereby is
amended in the following respects:

     1.     The definition of "EBITDA' appearing in Section 1.1 of the Loan
Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is substituted
therefor:

            "EBITDA' means, for any fiscal period, Net Income (without
            taking into account any non-cash, nonrecurring charge taken
            by the Borrower on or before December 31, 1997 on account of
            in-process research and development) plus to the extent
            accounted for in Net Income, Interest Expense, taxes,
            depreciation and amortization, for such period determined
            on an accrual and consolidated basis, in accordance with GAAP.
            EBITDA shall be calculated (excluding however, the calculation
            of EBITDA for the purpose of determining "Excess Cash Flow", in
            which case, the calculation of EBITDA in the definition of
            "Excess Cash Flow" shall govern) as follows: for the fiscal
            quarter of the Borrower ending on March 31, 1998, EBITDA for the
            Borrower fiscal quarter then ending multiplied by four (4), for
            the fiscal quarter of the Borrower ending on June 30, 1998,
            EBITDA for the Borrower fiscal quarter then ending plus EBITDA
            for the Borrower fiscal quarter immediately preceding such
            quarter, multiplied by two (2), for the fiscal quarter of the
            Borrower ending on September 30, 1998, EBITDA for the Borrower
            fiscal quarter then ending plus EBITDA for the two (2) Borrower
            fiscal quarters immediately preceding such quarter, multiplied by
            one and one-third (1.33) and, thereafter, for the rolling four
            Borrower fiscal quarter period consisting of the Borrower fiscal
            quarter then ending and the three immediately preceding Borrower
            fiscal quarters; provided, that for the purposes of Section
            5.1.10(A) only, EBITDA shall be calculated for the Borrower
            fiscal quarter then ending plus EBITDA for the Borrower fiscal
            quarter immediately preceding such Borrower fiscal quarter;
            provided, further, that any extraordinary, non-recurring
            charges incurred by the Borrower during the Borrower's second
            fiscal quarter in 1998 arising solely in connection with the
            acquisition by the Borrower of Wells Electronics, Inc. on
            December 26, 1997 (the "Acquisition") shall not be included in
            the definition of the term EBITDA for the purposes of
            calculating the Borrower's financial covenants set forth
            herein for the Borrower's fiscal quarters ending on March 31,
            1999, June 30, 1999 and September 30, 1999, and provided
            further, that up to $300,000 of cash and non-cash charges in
            the aggregate incurred or to be incurred by the Borrower to
            achieve certain cost savings, including, without limitation,
            restructuring the Wells-CTI assembly operation, reducing
            Borrower's Japanese operations, closing the Pennsylvania
            stamping facility and reducing the production costs of memory
            sockets shall not be included in the definition of EBITDA for
            the purposes of calculating the Borrower's financial covenants
            set forth herein for the Borrower's fiscal quarters ending
            September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1999.

     2.     Section 5.1.10 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended     by
deleting the Borrower fiscal quarters ending September 30,     1999 through
December 31, 2000 and thereafter and the ratios     applicable to each of such
quarters, and replacing same with     the following:

          "BORROWER FISCAL QUARTER(S) ENDING              RATIO

          December 31, 2000                             1.05:1.00
          March 31, 2001                                1.10:1.00
          June 30, 2001                                 1.10:1.00
          September 30, 2001 and thereafter             1.15:1.00"


     3.     The Loan Agreement is amended by adding immediately at the
     conclusion of Section 5.1.10 a new Section 5.1.10(A) which shall read
     as follows:

     "Section 5.1.10(A). MINIMUM EBITDA. Maintain at the end of each fiscal
     quarter of the Borrower set forth below EBITDA of not less than the
     amount set forth below opposite the fiscal quarter in question, such
     amount to be the sum -of EBITDA for the fiscal quarter in question plus
     EBITDA for the Borrower's immediately preceding fiscal quarter:

          BORROWER FISCAL QUARTER(S) ENDING                EBITDA

          September 30, 1999                             $7,600,000
          December 31, 1999                              $8,100,000
          March 31, 2000                                 $8,500,000
          June 30, 2000                                  $9,000,000
          September 30, 2000                             $9,500,000"


     4.     SECTION 5.1.12(A) is hereby amended in its entirety to read as
     follows:

     "SECTION 5.1.12(A). MAXIMUM RATIO OF TOTAL INDEBTEDNESS FOR BORROWED
     MONEY TO EBITDA. Maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter of Borrower
     in each period set forth below a Ratio of (i) total Indebtedness for
     Borrowed Money of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated
     basis as of the last day of such fiscal quarter to (ii) EBITDA of less
     than the ratio set forth below for such period:

     Agent;


 II. OTHER AGREEMENTS:
     1.     The Borrower hereby acknowledges that, as of December 31, 1999, it
was in default of the financial covenants set forth in SECTIONS 5.1.10(A) AND
5.1.12(A) of the Loan Agreement and that such defaults constitute Events of
Default under the Loan Agreement.  The Borrower represents to the Agent and
the Lenders that no further Event of Default existed under the Loan Agreement
or any of the other Financing Documents as of December 31, 1999, and that no
Event of Default exists under the Loan Agreement or any of the other Financing
Documents as of the date hereof.  At the request of the Borrower, the Agent
and the Lenders hereby waive the Borrower's compliance with such financial
covenants; provided, however, that such waiver is granted based upon the
assumption that the Borrower's management prepared financial statements sent
to the Agent on or about January 27, 2000 (the "MANAGEMENT FINANCIALS")
accurately reflect the financial condition of the Borrower in all material
respects.  To the extent that the Borrower's audited financial statements to
be delivered to the Agent pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement indicate
that the Management Financials are inaccurate in any material manner, the
Agent and the Lenders hereby reserve the right to revoke the waiver granted in
the first sentence of this paragraph.  Such waiver by the Agent and the
Lenders is not, nor shall it be construed as, a waiver of any other provision
under the Loan Agreement, or any other Default or Event of Default now
existing or hereafter occurring thereunder.  Except as set forth in Sections
1, 2 and 3 above, nothing herein contained shall be construed to be an
amendment of any provision of the Loan Agreement and all of the provisions of
the Loan Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, including, without
limitation, the provisions of SECTIONS 5.1.10(A) AND 5.1.12(A), as amended
                                                                             3
<PAGE>
hereby.  The foregoing waiver shall not entitle the Borrower to any other
waiver or consent in any similar or other circumstance.

     2.     All references to the Loan Agreement in any of the other Financing
Documents are hereby amended to refer to the Loan Agreement as amended by this
Amendment.

     3.     All of the terms and provisions of this Amendment are hereby
incorporated in the Loan Agreement and the Loan Agreement is amended
accordingly.  In the event that any term or condition contained in this
Amendment conflicts with, or is inconsistent with, any provision of the Loan
Agreement, as amended hereby, the terms and conditions of this Amendment shall
supersede and control.  In all other respects, the provisions of the Loan
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, including, without
limitation, any and all additional terms and conditions therein which are not
in conflict with the provisions of this Amendment.

     4.     The Borrower hereby restates and repeats all of the
representations, warranties and covenants of the Borrower set forth in the
Loan Agreement and each of the other Financing Documents to the same extent as
if fully set forth herein and the Borrower hereby certifies that all such
representations and warranties are true and accurate as of date hereof.

     5.     The Borrower hereby further represents, warrants and confirms that
(a) all of the Financing Documents and the terms thereof are hereby ratified
and confirmed, (b) the Loan Agreement, as amended hereby, and each of the
other Financing Documents are all in full force and effect and evidence the
valid and binding obligation of Borrower enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms, (c) there does not exist (i) any offset or defense against
the payment or performance of any of the Indebtedness or Obligations of the
Borrower evidenced or secured by the Financing Documents or (ii) any claim or
cause of action by the Borrower against the Agent or any Lender and (d) that
there are no shareholders or other agreements in effect granting pre-emptive
rights with respect to the Borrower's capital stock.

     6.     The Borrower hereby further agrees that, in the event that it has
not obtained at least $10,000,000 of Subordinated Debt or equity investments,
in each case upon terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Agent
and the Majority Lenders, the proceeds of which shall be paid upon receipt by
the Borrower to the Agent as a mandatory prepayment of the Loans, 50% of said
amount to be applied to the installments of the Term Loan in the inverse order
of maturity and 50% of said amount to be applied as a prepayment of the
Revolving Credit Loan, in all such cases for the account of the Lenders in
accordance with their Pro Rata Shares of the Loans being prepaid in each
instance (the "JUNIOR CAPITAL") by April 30, 2000, it shall pay the Agent, for
the benefit of the Lenders, commencing on May 1, 2000 and continuing on each
July 1, October 1, January 1 and April 1 thereafter (each a "PAYMENT DATE"), a
fee equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the sum of (i) the
outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan plus (ii) the Revolving Credit
Loan Commitment, each as of the day immediately prior to each such Payment
Date.  The Borrower shall continue to make such payments through and including
the Payment Date immediately following the receipt by the Borrower of the
Junior Capital but not thereafter.  In addition to such payments, the Borrower
has issued to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a warrant to purchase
shares of the Borrower's common stock (the "WARRANT"), which warrant shall be
in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A and shall be exercisable if and only
                                                                             4
<PAGE>
if both of the conditions set forth in the following clauses (a) and (b) have
been met:  (a) the Borrower has not received the Junior Capital by June 30,
2000 and (b) on or prior to June 30, 2000 the Borrower has not entered into
binding and definitive arrangements in form and substance reasonably
acceptable to the Agent and the Majority Lenders permitting repayment of the
Obligations in full prior to December 31, 2000.  In the event that the Warrant
is not exercisable on June 30, 2000 because the condition in clause (b) above
has been met, this Warrant shall become immediately exercisable on the earlier
of (x) December 31, 2000 if the Obligations are not paid in full on or prior
to that date and (y) the first Business Day on which the definitive
arrangements referred to in clause (b) above are not in full force and effect.

                   To Purchase ______ Shares of Common Stock


     This is to certify that, for value received, [   ] or any subsequent
holder hereof (collectively, the "HOLDER"), is entitled to purchase from PCD
INC. a Massachusetts corporation (the "COMPANY"), in whole or in part, at an
exercise price of $4.9032 per share, subject to adjustment as hereinafter
provided (the "Exercise Price"), at any time during the Exercise Period, as
defined below, [   ] of fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Common
Stock $0.01 par value, of the Company (the "COMMON STOCK").  This Warrant and
any other warrants issued as provided herein, are hereinafter collectively
referred to as the "WARRANT" or as the "WARRANTS" and all shares of Common
Stock and other securities purchased or purchasable upon exercise of this
Warrant are hereinafter collectively referred to as "WARRANT SHARES."  The

the Company and the therein defined Lenders, as amended, modified or restated
from time to time (as amended, modified or restated, the "LOAN AGREEMENT").

<PAGE>
     SECTION 1.     EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

     1.1.     TIME AND MANNER OF EXERCISE.  This Warrant may be exercised by
the Holder hereof, in whole or in part, if and only if both of the conditions
set forth in the following clauses (a) and (b) have been met:  (a) the Holder
has not received the Junior Capital (as such term is defined in the Loan
Agreement by June 30, 2000 and (b) on or prior to June 30, 2000 the Company
has not entered into binding and definitive arrangements in form and substance
reasonably acceptable to the Agent and the Majority Lenders (as such terms are
defined in the Loan Agreement) permitting repayment of the Obligations (as
such term is defined in the Loan Agreement) in full prior to December 31,
2000.  In the event that the Warrant is not exercisable on June 30, 2000
because the condition in clause (b) above has been met, this Warrant shall
become immediately exercisable on the earlier of (x) December 31, 2000 if the
Obligations are not paid in full on or prior to that date and (y) the first
Business Day on which the definitive arrangements referred to in clause (b)
above are not in full force and effect during the Exercise Period (as such
term is hereinafter defined) by surrender of this Warrant, with the form of
subscription attached hereto (the "SUBSCRIPTION") completed and duly executed
by such Holder, to the Company at its principal office at 2 Technology Drive,
Peabody, Massachusetts 01960, or at such other address as the Company may
designate by notice in writing to the Holder hereof at the address of such
Holder on the books of the Company.  As used herein, the term "EXERCISE
PERIOD" shall mean the period commencing on June 30, 2000 and ending at 6:00
p.m. (Eastern Time) on June 30, 2010.  If the last day for the exercise of
this Warrant shall not be a Business Day, then this Warrant may be exercised
on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day.  All Warrants surrendered
for exercise shall be canceled.

     1.2.     PAYMENT.  Payment in an amount equal to the product of (a) the
number of shares of Common Stock designated in the Subscription, times (b) the
Exercise Price shall be due to the Company, in cash or by certified or
official bank check payable to the Company within five (5) Business Days after
the date of exercise.

     1.3     NET ISSUE ELECTION.  The Holder hereof may elect to receive,
without the payment by such Holder of any additional consideration, shares of
Common Stock equal to the value of this Warrant or any portion hereof by the
surrender of this Warrant or such portion to the Company, with the form of net
issue subscription attached hereto duly executed by such Holder, at the office
of the Company.  Thereupon, the Company shall issue to such Holder such number
of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is computed using
the following formula:

                          X = Y (A-B)
                              -------
                                 A

     where:

     X = the number of shares to be issued to such Holder pursuant to this
         Section.

     Y = the number of shares covered by this Warrant in respect of which the
         net issue election is made pursuant to this Section.

                                      2
<PAGE>
     A = the fair market value of one share of Company Common Stock, as
         determined in accordance with the following provisions, as at the
         time the net issue election is made pursuant to this Section.

     B = the Exercise Price in effect under this Warrant at the time the net
         issue election is made pursuant to this Section.

          For purposes of this Section, "FAIR MARKET VALUE" of one share of
     Common Stock shall be the average of the daily closing prices for a
     share of Common Stock on the five (5) consecutive trading days
     commencing immediately before the date of determination of such fair
     market value.  The closing price for each day shall be: (i) if the
     Common Stock shall be listed or admitted to trading on any national
     securities exchange, the average of the last reported sales prices on
     the specified days (or if there is no reported sale on any such trading
     date, the average of the closing bid and asked prices on such trading
     date); (ii) if the Common Stock is not traded or admitted to trading on
     any national securities exchange, the closing price, if reported, or if
     the closing price is not reported, the average of the closing bid and
     asked prices, as reported by the Nasdaq National Market or similar
     source or, if no such source exists, as furnished by two members of the
     National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., selected by the
     Company for that purpose, on the specified dates; or (iii) if the Common
     Stock is not traded or admitted to trading on any national securities
     exchange or Nasdaq National Market, the Fair Market Value of such shares
     on such dates as determined in good faith by the Company's Board of
     Directors or, at the request of Lenders holding a majority of the dollar
     amount of any of the Company's outstanding indebtedness incurred
     pursuant to the Loan Agreement on the date of such request, by an
     independent appraiser reasonably acceptable to such Lenders at the
     Company's expense.  In the event that clause (iii) in the immediately
     preceding sentence is applicable, the Board of Directors of the Company
     shall promptly respond in writing to an inquiry by the Holder hereof as
     to the fair market value of one share of Common Stock.  The Fair Market
     Value of the Common Stock shall be determined on a going concern basis,
     without any discount for (i) lack of liquidity or (ii) based upon the
     sale of a minority interest.

     1.4     WHEN EXERCISE EFFECTIVE.  Each exercise of this Warrant shall be
deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the
Business Day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company
as provided in subsection 1.1, and at such time the person or persons in whose
name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock (or
of the other securities or property to which such Holder is entitled upon such
exercise in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be issuable upon such
exercise as provided in subsection 1.2 or 1.3, as the case may be, shall be
deemed to have become the Holder or Holders of record thereof.

     1.5     DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES, ETC.  As soon as practicable
after the exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, and in any event
within 10 days thereafter, the Company at its expense will cause to be issued
in the name of and delivered to the Holder hereof, or as such Holder may
direct:
                                      3
<PAGE>
     (a)     a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of
Common Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise plus,
in lieu of any fractional share to which such Holder would otherwise be
entitled, cash in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Exercise Price
of one full share of Common Stock, which shall be paid to the Holders thereof
on the Business Day next preceding the date of such exercise;

     (b)     in case such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant or Warrants
of like tenor, for the number of shares of Common Stock in respect of which
this Warrant shall not have been exercised;

     (c)     each certificate representing shares of Common Stock issued upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend
substantially in the following form (in addition to, or in combination with,
any other legend required under applicable state securities law and agreements
or by-law provisions relating to the transfer of the Company's securities):

               THE SHARES  EVIDENCED BY  THIS CERTIFICATE  HAVE NOT
               BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
               AMENDED   (THE "ACT"),  AND  HAVE  BEEN  TAKEN   FOR
               INVESTMENT PURPOSES  ONLY,  AND NOT  WITH A VIEW  TO
               THE  DISTRIBUTION THEREOF, AND SUCH  SECURITIES  MAY
               NOT  BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR TRANSFERRED UNLESS THERE IS
               AN EFFECTIVE  REGISTRATION  STATEMENT UNDER  THE ACT
               COVERING SUCH SECURITIES OR  THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN
               OPINION  OF COUNSEL  (WHICH MAY BE  COUNSEL  FOR THE
               COMPANY),   REASONABLY  SATISFACTORY  IN  FORM   AND
               CONTENT  TO THE COMPANY,  STATING THAT SUCH SALE  OR
               TRANSFER  IS  EXEMPT  FROM   THE  REGISTRATION   AND
               PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT.

     1.6     TAXES.  The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock
upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder
of this Warrant or Common Stock, as applicable, and the Company shall pay any
transfer tax or other governmental charge including any tax payable upon the
issuance of stock deliverable upon the exercise of any Warrant that may be
imposed or required by law upon any transfer incidental or prior thereto.

     SECTION 2.     INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS.

     The Holder hereof represents and warrants to the Company with respect to
such Holder's acquisition of this Warrant that such Holder is experienced in
evaluating and investing in high technology companies such as the Company.
Each Lender has made additional representations and warranties to the Company
in the Loan Agreement concerning its interest in this Warrant.  The Holder
hereof understands that this Warrant (and the Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant) to be purchased by such Holder have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any similar
Federal statute, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange

                                      4
<PAGE>
Commission, or any other Federal agency at the time administering the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT") by reason of a
specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act
which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment
intent as expressed herein.  The Holder further understands that neither this
Warrant nor the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant may be
offered, sold or otherwise transferred, pledged or hypothecated unless or
until this Warrant or the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant, as the case may be, is registered under the Securities Act or an
exemption form such registration is available.  The Holder hereof has had an
opportunity to discuss the Company's business, management and financial
affairs with the Company's management and to obtain any additional information
necessary to verify the accuracy of the information given to such Holder.  The
Holder hereof represents that such Holder is an accredited investor under Rule
501(a) of Regulation D of the Securities Act and that such Holder is able to
bear the economic risk of such Holder's investment in the Company contemplated
hereby.

     SECTION 3.     MAINTENANCE OF WARRANT REGISTER; ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER
AND REPLACEMENT.

     3.1     REGISTERED HOLDERS. The Company will maintain a register
containing the name and address of the Holder of this Warrant.  The
"registered Holder" of this Warrant shall be the person in whose name such
Warrant is registered in said warrant register.  Any registered Holder of this
Warrant may change such Holder's address as shown on the warrant register by
written notice to the Company requesting such change.  Any notice or written
communication required or permitted to be given to the registered Holder of
this Warrant shall be mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, or delivered to such registered Holder at its
address as shown on the warrant register.

     3.2     ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER OF THE WARRANT.  On the basis of the
foregoing representations set forth in Section 2 above, this Warrant has not
been registered under the Securities Act, and neither this Warrant nor the
rights evidenced hereby shall be assigned, pledged, transferred or otherwise
disposed of unless either (a) this Warrant first shall have been registered
under the Securities Act, or (b) the Company first shall have been furnished
with an opinion of legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company
stating that such sale or transfer is an exempted transaction under the
Securities Act and, unless such opinion states that such Warrant may be
transferred by the transferee immediately after acquisition without
registration under the Securities Act, a written agreement by the transferee
thereof not to sell or transfer such Warrant without complying with the
requirements provided for in this subsection 3.2.  Upon surrender of this
Warrant to the Company for transfer as an entirety by the registered Holder
(as permitted by this Section) at the offices of the Company referred to in
Section 1.1 hereof, with the form of assignment attached hereto completed and
duly executed by the registered Holder, the Company shall, at the Company's
expense, issue a new Warrant of the same denomination to the assignee.

     3.3     REPLACEMENT.  In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost,
stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue a new Warrant of like tenor and
denomination and deliver the same (a) in exchange and substitution for and
upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or (b) in lieu of
the

                                      5
<PAGE>
Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, upon receipt of (i) a reasonably detailed
affidavit with respect to the circumstances of any loss, theft or destruction,
and (ii) an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

     SECTION 4. ADJUSTMENT OF STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE.

     4.1     SALE OF SHARES BELOW EXERCISE PRICE.

             (a)     If at any time or from time to time the Company issues or
sells, or is deemed by the provisions of this Section 4.1 to have issued or
sold, Additional Shares of Common Stock (as hereinafter defined), other than
as a dividend or other distribution on any class of stock as provided in
Section 4.2 and other than upon a subdivision or combination of shares of
Common Stock as provided in Section 4.3, for an Effective Price (as
hereinafter defined) less than $4.9032 or, if an adjustment in the Pro Forma
Purchase Price (as hereinafter defined) has theretofore been made, then less
than the existing Pro Forma Purchase Price, then and in each such case:

             (i)     the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive,
                     in lieu of the number of shares theretofore receivable
                     upon the exercise of this Warrant, a number of shares of
                     Common Stock determined by (i) dividing $4.9032 (which
                     amount shall not be subject to adjustment) by the
                     existing Pro Forma Purchase Price as adjusted as a
                     result of such issue or sale (as provided below), and
                     (ii) multiplying the resulting quotient by the number of
                     shares of Common Stock called for on the face of this
                     Warrant (as the same may have been previously adjusted);
                     and

             (ii)    the then existing Pro Forma Purchase Price shall be
                     reduced to a price determined by multiplying that Pro
                     Forma Purchase Price by a fraction (i) the numerator of
                     which shall be (a) the number of shares of Common Stock
                     outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale,
                     plus (b) the number of shares of Common Stock which the
                     aggregate consideration received (or by the express
                     provisions hereof deemed to have been received) by the
                     Company for the total number of Additional Shares of
                     Common Stock so issued would purchase at such Pro Forma
                     Purchase Price, and (ii) the denominator of which shall
                     be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
                     immediately after giving effect to such issue of
                     Additional Shares of Common Stock.

             (b)     For the purpose of making any adjustment required under
this Section 4.1, the consideration received by the Company for any issue or
sale of securities shall (i) to the extent it consists of cash, be computed at
the amount of cash received by the Company, (ii) to the extent it consists of
property other than cash, be computed at the fair value of that property as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company (the
"BOARD") or, at the request of Lenders holding a majority of the dollar amount
of any of the Company's outstanding indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Loan
Agreement on the date of such request, by an independent appraiser reasonably
acceptable to such Lenders at the Company's expense, and (iii) if

                                      6
<PAGE>
Additional Shares of Common Stock, Convertible Securities (as hereinafter
defined) or rights or options to purchase either Additional Shares of Common
Stock or Convertible Securities are issued or sold together with other stock
or securities or other assets of the Company for a consideration which covers
both, be computed as the portion of the consideration so received that may be
reasonably determined in good faith by the Board to be allocable to such
Additional Shares of Common Stock, Convertible Securities or rights or options
or, at the request of Lenders holding a majority of the dollar amount of any
of the Company's outstanding indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Loan
Agreement on the date of such request, by an independent appraiser reasonably
acceptable to such Lenders at the Company's expense.

             (c)     For the purpose of the adjustment required under this
Section 4.1, if the Company issues or sells any rights or options for the
purchase of, or stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable
for, Additional Shares of Common Stock (such convertible or exchangeable stock
or securities being hereinafter referred to as "CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES") and
if the Effective Price (as hereinafter defined) of such Additional Shares of
Common Stock is less than the Pro Forma Purchase Price then in effect, then in
each case the Company shall be deemed to have issued at the time of the
issuance of such rights or options or Convertible Securities the maximum
number of Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise, conversion
or exchange thereof and to have received as consideration for the issuance of
such shares an amount equal to the total amount of the consideration, if any,
received by the Company for the issuance of such rights or options or
Convertible Securities, plus, in the case of such rights or options, the
minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the
exercise of such rights or options, plus, in the case of Convertible
Securities, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the
Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by
such Convertible Securities) upon the conversion or exchange thereof No
further adjustment of the Pro Forma Purchase Price, adjusted upon the issuance
of such rights, options or Convertible Securities, shall be made as a result
of the actual issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock on the exercise of
any such rights or options or the conversion or exchange of any such
Convertible Securities. If any such rights or options or the conversion or
exchange privilege represented by any such Convertible Securities shall expire
without having been exercised, the Pro Forma Purchase Price adjusted upon the
issuance of such rights, options or Convertible Securities shall be readjusted
to the Pro Forma Purchase Price which would have been in effect had an
adjustment been made on the basis that the only Additional Shares of Common
Stock so issued were the Additional Shares of Common Stock, if any, actually
issued or sold on the exercise of such rights or options or rights of
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and such Additional
Shares of Common Stock, if any, were issued or sold for the consideration
actually received by the Company upon such exercise, if any, plus the
consideration, if any, actually received by the Company for the granting of
all such rights or options, whether or not exercised, or, if applicable, the
consideration actually received by the Company for issuing or selling the
Convertible Securities actually converted or exchanged, plus the
consideration, if any, actually received by the Company (other than by
cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible
Securities) on the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

             (d)     For the purpose of the adjustment required under this
Section 4.1, if the Company issues or sells, or is deemed by the provisions of
this subsection to have issued or sold, any rights or options for the

                                      7
<PAGE>
purchase of Convertible Securities and if the Effective Price of the
Additional Shares of Common Stock underlying such Convertible Securities is
less than the Pro Forma Purchase Price then in effect, then in each such case
the Company shall be deemed to have issued at the time of the issuance of such
rights or options the maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exchange of the total amount of Convertible
Securities covered by such rights or options and to have received as
consideration for the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock an
amount equal to the amount of consideration, if any, received by the Company
for the issuance of such rights or options, plus the minimum amounts of
consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of such rights
or options and plus the minimum amount of consideration, if any, payable to
the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations
evidenced by such Convertible Securities) upon the conversion or exchange of
such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment of the Pro Forma Purchase
Price, adjusted upon the issuance of such rights or options, shall be made as
a result of the actual issuance of the Convertible Securities upon the
exercise of such rights or options or upon the actual issuance of Additional
Shares of Common Stock upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities. The provisions of paragraph (3) above for the readjustment of the
Pro Forma Purchase Price upon the expiration of rights or options or the
rights of conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities shall apply mutatis
mutandis to the rights, options and Convertible Securities referred to in this
paragraph (d).

             (e)     "ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK" shall mean all shares
of Common Stock issued by the Company on or after the date of this Warrant,
whether or not subsequently reacquired or retired by the Company, other than
(i) shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants, (ii) shares
of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Common Stock Purchase Warrant
dated December 26, 1997 for the purchase of up to 525,000 additional shares of
Common Stock issued to Emerson, (iii) shares of Common Stock issued to holders
of options to purchase Common Stock of the Company that are outstanding on the
date of this Warrant, (iv) shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to, or
options granted under, any of the Company's 1992 Stock Option Plan, 1996 Stock
Plan, 1996 Eligible Directors Plan or 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, (v)
up to a maximum of 669,500 shares of Common Stock issued or issuable to
officers, employees or directors of, or consultants to, the Company, pursuant
to any agreement, plan or arrangement approved by the board of directors,
provided, however, that the aggregate Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant
to paragraphs (iv) and (v) above shall not exceed 15% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock (on a Fully-Diluted Basis, as defined
below), (vi) shares of Common Stock issued to strategic partners or licensors
in connection with specific strategic relationships or license agreements,
(vii) shares of Common Stock, or warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock,
issued in connection with equipment leases and (viii) shares of Common Stock
issued as a stock dividend for purposes of effecting a stock split or upon any
other stock split or other subdivision or combination of shares of Common
Stock.  For the purposes of this paragraph, "FULLY-DILUTED BASIS" means the
number of shares of Common Stock that would be issued and outstanding at any
time if all Convertible Securities then exercisable were converted into Common
Stock.

             (f)     The "EFFECTIVE PRICE" of Additional Shares of Common
Stock shall mean the quotient determined by dividing the total number of
Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or sold, or deemed to have been

                                      8
<PAGE>
issued or sold by the Company under this Section 4.1, into the aggregate
consideration received, or deemed to have been received, by the Company for
such issue under this Section 4.1, for such Additional Shares of Common Stock.

             (g)     Any reduction in the conversion price of any Convertible
Security, whether outstanding on the date of this Warrant or thereafter, or
the subscription price of any option, warrant or right to purchase Common
Stock or any Convertible Security (whether such option, warrant or right is
outstanding on the Issue Date or thereafter), to an Effective Price less than
the then Pro Forma Purchase Price shall be deemed to be an issuance of such
Convertible Security and the issuance of all such options, warrants or
subscription rights, and the provisions of this Section 4.1 shall apply
thereto mutatis mutandis.

             (h)     DILUTION IN CASE OF OTHER STOCK OR SECURITIES.  In case
any shares of stock or other securities, other than Common Stock of the
Company, shall at the time be receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant,
and in case any additional shares of such stock or any additional such
securities (or any stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable
for any such stock or securities) shall be issued or sold for a consideration
per share such as to dilute the purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant,
then and in each such case the Pro Forma Purchase Price shall forthwith be
adjusted, substantially in the manner provided for above in this Section 4.1,
so as to protect the Holder of this Warrant against the effect of such
dilution.

             (i)     RECORD DATE DEEMED DATE OF ISSUANCE.  In case the Company
shall take a record of the Holders of shares of its stock of any class for the
purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or a distribution payable
in Common Stock or in Convertible Securities, or (ii) to subscribe for,
purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock or Convertible Securities, then
such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the
Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or sold or deemed to have been issued
or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other
distribution, or the date of the granting of such rights of subscription,
purchase or other acquisition, as the case may be.

     4.2     ADJUSTMENT FOR CERTAIN DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. If the
Company at any time or from time to time makes, or fixes a record date for the
determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or
other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in
each such event:

             (a)     the Pro Forma Purchase Price then in effect shall be
decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date is
fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Pro
Forma Purchase Price then in effect by a fraction (i) the numerator of which
is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on
such record date, as the case may be, and (ii) the denominator of which shall
be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on
such record date, as the case may be, plus the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however,
that if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if
such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Pro Forma
Purchase Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close

                                      9
<PAGE>
of business on such record date, and thereafter the Pro Forma Purchase Price
shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 4.2) as of the time of actual
payment of such dividends or distributions; and

             (b)     the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased, as of the
time of such issuance or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the
close of business on such record date, in inverse proportion to the decrease
in the Pro Forma Purchase Price.

     4.3.     STOCK SPLIT AND REVERSE STOCK SPLIT.  If the Company at any time
or from the to time effects a stock split or subdivision of the outstanding
Common Stock (by stock dividend or otherwise), the Pro Forma Purchase Price
then in effect immediately before that stock split or subdivision shall be
proportionately decreased and the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately
increased.  If the Company at any time or from time to time effects a reverse
stock split or combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares, the Pro Forma Purchase Price then in effect immediately
before that reverse stock split or combination shall be proportionately
increased and the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore receivable upon
the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. Each
adjustment under this Section 4.3 shall become effective at the close of
business on the date the stock split, subdivision, reverse stock split or
combination becomes effective.

     4.4.     NO DILUTION OR IMPAIRMENT.  The Company will not, by amendment
of its certificate of incorporation or through reorganization, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, sale of assets or any other
voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any
of the terms of the Warrants, but will at all times in good faith assist in
the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may
be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holders of
the Warrants against dilution or other impairment. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) will not increase the par value
of any share of stock receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants above the
amount payable therefor upon such exercise, and (b) will take all such action
as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and
legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares upon the exercise of all
Warrants at the time outstanding.

     4.5.     ACCOUNTANTS' CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENT.  In each case of an
adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock or the number or type of
other stock, securities or property receivable on the exercise of the
Warrants, the Company at its expense shall cause independent public
accountants of recognized standing selected by the Company (who may be the
independent public accountants then auditing the books of the Company) to
compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrants and
prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in detail the
facts upon which such adjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the
consideration received or to be received by the Company for any Additional
Shares of Common Stock issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold,
(b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or deemed to be
outstanding, and (c) the Pro Forma Purchase Price. The Company will forthwith
mail a copy of each such certificate to each Holder of a Warrant at the time
outstanding.

                                     10
<PAGE>
     4.6.     Notices of Record Date:     In case:

             (a)     the Company shall take a record of the Holders of its
Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time receivable upon the
exercise of the Warrants) for the purpose of entitling them to receive any
dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any
shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other
right, or

             (b)     of any capital reorganization of the Company, any
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or any conveyance of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another corporation,
or

             (c)     of any voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up
of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to
be mailed to each Holder of a Warrant at the time outstanding a notice
specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record is to be taken
for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the
amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the date
on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to take place,
and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the Holders of record of
Common Stock (or such stock or securities at the time receivable upon the
exercise of the Warrants) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common
Stock (or such other stock or securities) for securities or other property
deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Such notice shall be
mailed at least 30 days prior to the date specified in the notice on which any
such action is to be taken.

     4.7.     STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS.  If at any time or from time to time, the
Company grants or issues to the record holders of the Common Stock any
options, warrants or subscription rights (collectively, the "STOCK PURCHASE
RIGHTS") entitling a such holder to purchase Common Stock or any security
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or to purchase any other
stock or securities of the Company, upon exercise hereof the Holder shall be
entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Stock Purchase Rights,
the aggregate Stock Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if
the Holder had been the record Holder of the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant on the record date for
such grant or issuance of such Stock Purchase Rights.

     4.8.     GENERAL; PRO FORMA PURCHASE PRICE. The number of shares of
Common Stock which the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive
upon the exercise hereof shall be determined by multiplying the number of
shares of Common Stock which would otherwise (but for the provisions of this
Section 4) be issuable upon such exercise, as designated by the Holder hereof
pursuant to Section 1.1, by the quotient determined by dividing $4.9032 by the
Pro Forma Purchase Price, as defined below in this Section 4.8, in effect on
the date of such exercise.  The "PRO FORMA PURCHASE PRICE" per share of Common
Stock shall initially be $4.9032 and shall be adjusted and readjusted from
time to time as provided in this Section 4 (and, as so adjusted or

                                     11
<PAGE>
readjusted, shall remain in effect until a further adjustment or readjustment
thereof is required by this Section 4).

     4.9.     ADJUSTMENTS FOR CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE OF ASSETS,
REORGANIZATION, ETC.  If the Company effects a capital reorganization or
reclassification of the stock of the Company (other than a change in par value
or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of
shares), or the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another
person (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the
continuing corporation and which does not result in any change in the Common
Stock), or sells or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all the
properties and assets of the Company as an entirety to any other person, the
Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the
consummation of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale or other disposition, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the Common
Stock issuable upon such exercise prior to such consummation, the kind and
number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company or of
the corporation resulting from such consolidation or surviving such merger or
to which such properties and assets shall have been sold or otherwise disposed
to which such Holder would have been entitled if immediately prior to such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or other
disposition such Holder had exercised this Warrant.  The provisions of this
subsection 4.9 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales or other dispositions.  The
Company shall not effect any such merger, consolidation, or similar
reorganization in which the Company does not survive or in which its Common
Stock changes, unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof
the successor corporation shall assume by written instrument executed and
mailed or delivered to the Holder of this Warrant at the last address of such
Holder appearing on the books of the Company, the obligations to deliver to
such Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with
the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to purchase.

     4.10     CALCULATIONS MADE TO NEAREST CENT OR FULL SHARE.  All
calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the
nearest full share, as the case may be (with one-half of a cent or a share
being rounded to the next highest full cent or share).

     4.11.     NO DUPLICATE ADJUSTMENTS.  Notwithstanding any provision in
this Section 4 to the contrary, no adjustment in the number of shares of
Common Stock which the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive
upon the exercise hereof shall be made if, as a result of the antidilution
provisions contained in the Company's Articles of Organization, if any, the
Holder of this Warrant shall have obtained substantially the same protections
against dilution resulting from the sale of the Company's capital stock at a
price below the exercise price of this Warrant which are intended to be
provided by the provisions of this Section 4.

     SECTION 5.     OTHER NOTICES.  In case at any time:

           (a)     the Company shall declare any dividend or other
distribution upon its Common Stock payable in stock; or make any special
dividend or other distribution (other than regular cash dividends) to the
Holders of its Common Stock; or

                                     12
<PAGE>
          (b)     the Company shall propose a subdivision of its outstanding
Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock or propose a
combination of its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of
Common Stock; or

          (c)     the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the
Holders of its Common Stock or Common Stock any additional shares of stock of
any class or other rights; or

          (d)     the Company shall propose any capital reorganization or any
reclassification of capital stock of the Company or any consolidation, merger
or sale of all or substantially all of its properties and assets; or

          (e)     there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

then, and in each of said cases, the Company shall cause notice thereof to be
mailed to the Holder of this Warrant at the last address appearing on the
books of the Company or given by such Holder to the Company for the purpose of
notice, but such mailing shall be solely for the convenience of the Holder of
this Warrant and shall not be a condition precedent to, nor shall any defect
therein or failure in connection therewith, affect the validity of the action
proposed to be taken by the Company.  Such notices shall be mailed at least
twenty-one (21) days prior to the date on which the books of the Company shall
close, or a record date shall be taken for such dividend, distribution, stock
split or combination or issue of rights or to vote upon such capital
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale of properties
and assets, as the case may be, and shall specify such record date or date for
the closing of the transfer books.

     SECTION 6.     RESERVATION OF STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE.

     The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for issuance and
delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, such number of its shares of
Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of
its Common Stock shall not be sufficient for such purpose, the Company will
take such corporate actions as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be
necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of its Common Stock
to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.








                                     13
<PAGE>
     SECTION 7.     RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER.

     The registered Holder of this Warrant, as such, shall not be entitled to
vote or receive dividends or be deemed the Holder of shares of Common Stock
for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to
confer upon the registered Holder of this Warrant, as such, any of the rights
of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent
to any action by the Company (whether upon any recapitalization, issue of
shares, reclassification of shares, consolidation, merger, conveyance or
otherwise), receive notice of meetings or other action affecting stockholders
(except for notices provided for in this Warrant), receive dividends or
subscription rights, or otherwise until this Warrant shall have been exercised
and the shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have
become deliverable as provided in Section 1 hereof, at which time the person
or persons in whose name or names the certificate or certificates for the
shares of Common Stock being purchased are to be issued shall be deemed the
holder or holders of record of shares of Common Stock for all purposes.

     SECTION 8.     REMEDIES.

     The Company stipulates that the remedies at law of the Holder of this
Warrant in the event of any default or threatened default by the Company in
the performance of or compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant are not
and will not be adequate, and that such terms may be specifically enforced by
a decree for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or by
an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise.

     SECTION 9.     TRANSFERABILITY.

     This Warrant may be transferred or assigned in whole or in part by the
Holder either to an affiliate (as that term is defined in the Securities Act)
of the Holder or to anyone else if the Holder has complied with the terms and
conditions of (i) this Warrant and (ii) all applicable federal and state
securities laws.  Such compliance shall include, without limitation, the
delivery of investment representation letters and legal opinions reasonably
satisfactory to the Company.  Subject to the provisions of this Warrant with
respect to compliance with the Securities Act, title to this Warrant may be
transferred by endorsement (by the Holder executing the Form of Assignment
annexed hereto) and delivery in the same manner as a negotiable instrument
transferable by endorsement and delivery.

     SECTION 10.    NOTICES, ETC.

All notices and other communications from the Company to the Holder of this
Warrant shall be mailed by recognized overnight courier first class registered
or certified air mail, postage prepaid, at such address as may have been
furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder, or, until an address is so
furnished, to and at the address of the last Holder of this Warrant who has so
furnished an address to the Company.

     SECTION 11.     MISCELLANEOUS.

     This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or
terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which
enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.  This
Warrant is being delivered in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and shall be

<EXHIBIT>                                                        EXHIBIT 10.47
                        REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

     This Registration Rights Agreement (the "AGREEMENT") is made on this 6th
day of March, 2000 by and among PCD Inc. (the "COMPANY") and each of the
Lenders set forth on SCHEDULE A attached hereto (the "HOLDERS").  Capitalized
terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to
them in the Loan Agreement.

                             W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Holders are parties to that certain Loan
Agreement dated as of December 26, 1997 by and among the Agent, the Company
and the therein defined Lenders, as amended, modified or restated from time to
time (as amended, modified or restated, the "LOAN AGREEMENT"); and

     WHEREAS, in connection with certain amendments to the Loan Agreement, the
Company has issued to the Holders as of the date hereof certain Warrants to
purchase shares of Common Stock (the "WARRANTS"); and

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Holders have agreed to grant the Holders
certain rights to have their securities registered by the Company pursuant to
the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or
supplanted (the "SECURITIES ACT"); and

     WHEREAS, the Company and Emerson Electric Co., a Missouri corporation
("EMERSON") are parties to that certain Registration Rights Agreement dated as
of December 26, 1997 (the "EMERSON REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT"); and

     WHEREAS, the  parties hereto intend that the provisions and rights set
forth in this Agreement shall be consistent with and subject to the provisions
of Section 12 of the Emerson Registration Rights Agreement.

   NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the Holders agreement to the amendments
to the Loan Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
hereby agree as follows:

            1.     DEMAND REGISTRATIONS.

            1.1.     At any time and from time to time subsequent to the date
hereof, upon the written request of the holders of at least a majority of the
shares issuable from time to time upon exercise of the Warrants, (the
"INITIATING HOLDERS") that the Company effect the Registration under the
Securities Act (such a written request being hereinafter referred to as a
"DEMAND REGISTRATION") of at least fifty percent (50%) of the shares issuable
upon exercise of the Warrants (the "REGISTRABLE SECURITIES"), the Company will
promptly give written notice to all other holders of Registrable Securities
that a Demand Registration has been received.  For a period of 15 days
following delivery of such notice, the other holders of Registrable Securities
may request that the Company also register their Registrable Securities and
after the expiration of such 15 day period, the Company shall notify all
holders of Registrable Securities of the number of Registrable Securities to
be registered.  Thereupon, the Company will use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause the prompt Registration under the Securities Act, subject to
the provisions of this Agreement, of all Registrable Securities which the
holders thereof have requested the Company to register, and in connection
therewith, prepare and file on such appropriate form as the Company, in its
reasonable discretion, shall determine, a Registration Statement under the
Securities Act to effect such Registration.

     With respect to any Registration Statement filed, or to be filed,
pursuant to this Section 1.1, if the Company shall furnish to the holders of
Registrable Securities a certified resolution of the Board of Directors
stating that in the Board of Directors' good faith judgment it would (because
of the existence of, or in anticipation of, any acquisition or financing,
merger, sale of assets, recapitalization or other similar corporate activity,
or the unavailability for reasons beyond the Company's control of any required
audited financial statements, or any other event or condition of similar
significance to the Company) be materially disadvantageous (a "DISADVANTAGEOUS
CONDITION") to the Company or its stockholders for such a Registration
Statement to be maintained Effective, or to be filed and become Effective, and
setting forth the general reasons for such judgment, the Company shall be
entitled to cause such Registration Statement to be
<PAGE>
withdrawn and the effectiveness of such Registration Statement terminated, or,
in the event no Registration Statement has yet been filed, shall be entitled
not to file any such Registration Statement, until such Disadvantageous
Condition no longer exists (notice of which the Company shall promptly deliver
to all holders of Registrable Securities); provided, however, that the Company
may only declare two (2) Disadvantageous Conditions per fiscal year of the
Company and any such Disadvantageous Condition may only extend for a period of
180 days; provided further, that the Company may not declare a Disadvantageous
Condition within 180 days next following the end of a previous Disadvantageous
Condition and the aggregate number of days that the Company may have a
Disadvantageous Condition in any fiscal year shall not exceed 180. Upon
receipt of any such notice of a Disadvantageous Condition, such holders of
Registrable Securities will forthwith discontinue use of the disclosure
document contained in such Registration Statement and, if so directed by the
Company, each such holder will deliver to the Company all copies, other than
permanent file copies then in such holder's possession, of the disclosure
document then covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of
receipt of such notice, covering such Registrable Securities.  In the event
that the Company shall give any notice of a Disadvantageous Condition, the
Company shall at such time as it in good faith deems appropriate file a new
Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities that were covered
by such withdrawn Registration Statement, and such Registration Statement
shall be maintained Effective for such time as may be necessary so that the
period of effectiveness of such new Registration Statement, when aggregated
with the period during which such initial Registration Statement was
Effective, shall be such time as may be otherwise required by Section 1.3.

     The holders of 50% of the Registrable Securities requested to be
registered may, at any time prior to the Effective Date of the Registration
Statement relating to such Registration, revoke such request, without
liability to any of the other holders of Registrable Securities, by providing
a written notice to the Company revoking such request.

          1.2.     NUMBER OF REGISTRATIONS, EXPENSES.  The Company shall not
be obligated to effect more than two Registrations of Registrable Securities
pursuant to requests from the holders of Registrable Securities under this
Section 1 during the term of this Agreement.  The Company shall pay all
Registration Expenses in connection with the first Registration which the
holders of Registrable Securities are entitled to request pursuant to this
Section 1, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay
for any expenses of any Registration Expenses on any Registration begun
pursuant to this Section 1 if the Registration request is subsequently
withdrawn at the request of a majority of the Holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities to be registered (in which case all participating
Holders shall bear such expenses), unless the Holders of a majority of
Registrable Securities to be registered agree to forfeit their right to one
Demand Registration pursuant to this Section 1; provided further, that if at
the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have learned of a material adverse
change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from that known
to the Holders at the time of the request for a Demand Registration, then the
Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall retain
their rights pursuant to the Section 1.  Notwithstanding any other provisions
contained in this Section 1, the Company shall not be required to register any
Registrable Securities pursuant to an Effective Registration Statement in
connection with a request for such Registration made in accordance with this
Section 1 if any previous Registration Statement became Effective fewer than
180 days prior to such request.

          1.3.     EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT.  A Registration requested
pursuant to this Section 1 shall not be deemed to have been effected unless
the Registration Statement relating thereto (i) has become Effective under the
Securities Act and all of the Registrable Securities of the holders thereof
included in such Registration have actually been sold thereunder, and (ii) has
remained Effective for a period of at least 180 days (or such shorter period
in which all Registrable Securities included in such Registration have
actually been sold thereunder); provided, however, that if any Effective
Registration Statement requested pursuant to this Section 1 is discontinued
prior to the sale of all Registrable Securities included in such Registration
in connection with a Disadvantageous Condition, such Registration Statement
shall not be included as one of the Registrations which may be requested
pursuant to this Section 1; provided further, that if after any Registration
Statement requested pursuant to this Section 1 becomes Effective (x) such
Registration Statement is subject to any stop order, injunction or other order
or requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court solely
due to the actions or omissions to act of the Company or (y) less than two
thirds of all of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such
Registration have been sold thereunder, such Registration Statement shall not
be included as one of the Registrations which such holders of Registrable
Securities are entitled to request pursuant to Section 1.2.

          1.4.     SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS.  If any requested Registration
pursuant to this Section 1 is in the form of an underwritten offering, the
Company shall have the right to select the investment banker and manager or
co-managers that will administer the offering, subject to the reasonable and
timely approval of the Holders holding 50% of the Registrable Securities in
respect of which Registration has been requested.

          1.5.     PRIORITY IN REQUESTED REGISTRATIONS.  If a requested
Registration pursuant this Section 1 involves an underwritten offering and the
managing underwriter shall advise the Company that, in its view, the number of
equity securities requested to be included in such Registration exceeds the
largest number of securities which can be sold without having an adverse
effect on such offering, including the price at which such securities can be
sold, the Company will include in such Registration (i) first the Registrable
Securities proposed to be registered by holders thereof, pro rata based on the
number of Registrable Securities proposed to be registered by each such holder
and then, (ii) securities that the Company proposes to issue and sell for its
own account and all other securities proposed to be registered by the holders
thereof, pro rata based on the number of securities proposed to be registered
by each such Person.

     2.    INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION.

           2.1.     If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its
equity securities under the Securities Act (other than a Registration (i)
relating to shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of employee stock
options or in connection with any employee benefit or similar plan of the
Company, (ii) in connection with an acquisition by the Company of another
company, or (iii) pursuant to Section 1) in a manner which would permit
Registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public under the
Securities Act, it shall each such time, subject to the provisions of Section
2.2, give prompt written notice to all holders of record of Registrable
Securities of its intention to do so and of such holders' rights under this
Section 2, at least 20 days prior to the anticipated filing date of the
Registration Statement relating to such Registration.  Such notice shall offer
all such holders the opportunity to include in such Registration Statement
such number of Registrable Securities as each such holder may request.  Upon
the written request of any such holder made within 15 days after the receipt
of the Company's notice (which request shall specify the number of Registrable
Securities intended to be disposed of by such holder and the intended method
of disposition thereof), the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts
to effect the Registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable
Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the holders
thereof; provided, that (x) if such Registration involves an underwritten
offering, all holders of Registrable Securities requesting to be included in
the Company's Registration must sell their Registrable Securities to the
underwriters selected by the Company on the same terms and conditions as apply
to the Company; and (y) if, at any time after giving written notice of its
intention to register any securities pursuant to this Section 2.1 and prior to
the Effective Date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such
Registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register such
securities, the Company shall give written notice to all holders of
Registrable Securities and shall thereupon be relieved of its obligation to
register any Registrable Securities in connection with such Registration
(without prejudice, however, to rights of the holders of Registrable
Securities under Section 1).  If a Registration pursuant to this Section 2.1
involves an underwritten public offering, any holder of Registrable Securities
requesting to be included in such Registration may elect, in writing prior to
the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such
Registration, not to register such Registrable Securities in connection with
such Registration.  No Registration effected under this Section 2 shall
relieve the Company of its obligations to effect Registrations upon request
under Section 1 or Section 3.  The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses
in connection with each Registration of Registrable Securities requested
pursuant to this Section 2.

          2.2.     PRIORITY IN INCIDENTAL REGISTRATIONS.  If a Registration
pursuant to this Section 2 involves an underwritten offering and the managing
underwriter advises the Company that, in its good faith view, the number of
equity securities (including all Registrable Securities) which the Company,
the holders of Registrable Securities and any other persons intend to include
in such Registration exceeds the largest number of securities which can be
sold without having an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at
which such Registrable Securities can be sold, the Company will include in
such Registration (i) FIRST, securities that the Company proposes to issue and
sell for its own account, (ii) SECOND, securities that Emerson proposes to
register pursuant to Section to of the Emerson Registration Rights Agreement;
and (iii) THIRD, Registrable Securities and all other securities proposed to
be registered by the holders thereof, pro rata based on the number of
Registrable Securities and other securities proposed to be registered by each
such Person.

     3.     REGISTRATIONS ON FORM S-3.

     In addition to the rights provided the holders of Registrable Securities
in Section 1 and Section 2, if the registration of Registrable Securities
under the Securities Act can be effected on Form S-3 (or any similar form
promulgated by the Commission), then upon the written request of the
Initiating Holders, the Company will so notify each holder of Registrable
Securities, including each holder who has a right to acquire Registrable
Securities, and then will, as expeditiously as possible, use commercially
reasonable efforts to effect qualification and registration under the
Securities Act on Form S-3 of all or such portion of the Registrable
Securities as the holder or holders shall specify; provided, however, the
Company shall not be required to effect a registration pursuant to this
Section 3 unless the market value of the Registrable Securities to be sold in
any such Registration shall be estimated to be at least $1,000,000 at the time
of filing such Registration Statement, and further provided that the Company
shall not be required to effect more than two Registrations under this Section
3 nor more than one Registration during any twelve (12) month period.  The
Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each
Registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.
However, each holder of Registrable Securities shall pay all underwriting
discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or
disposition of such holder's Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration
Statement effected pursuant to this Section 3.


     4.     HOLDBACK AGREEMENTS.

            4.1.     If any Registration of Registrable Securities shall be
effected in connection with an underwritten public offering, each Holder of
Registrable Securities agrees not to effect any sale or distribution,
including any private placement or any sale pursuant to Rule 144 or any
successor provision, under the Securities Act, of any Registrable Securities,
and not to effect any such sale or distribution of any other equity security
of the Company or of any security convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for any equity security of the Company (in each case, other than
as part of such underwritten public offering) during the seven days prior to,
and during the 180 day Period which begins on, the effective date of such
Registration Statement (except as part of such Registration) provided that
each holder of Registrable Securities has received written notice of such
Registration at least three days prior to the anticipated beginning of the
seven day period referred to above and provided that each executive officer
and each director of the Company and Emerson have agreed to a provision at
least as restrictive as the one imposed by this Section.

                                       4
<PAGE>
          4.2.     If any Registration of Registrable Securities shall be
effected in connection with an underwritten public offering, the Company
agrees (i) not to effect any sale or distribution of any of its equity
securities or of any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable
for any equity security of the Company (other than any such sale or
distribution of such securities in connection with any merger or consolidation
by the Company or any Affiliate or the acquisition by the Company or an
Affiliate of the Company of the capital stock or substantially all the assets
of any other Person or in connection with an employee stock ownership or other
benefit plan) during the seven days prior to, and during the 180 day period
which begins on, the Effective Date of such Registration Statement (except as
part of such Registration) and (ii) that any agreement entered into after the
date hereof pursuant to which the Company issues or agrees to issue any
privately placed equity securities shall contain a provision under which the
holders of such securities agree not to effect any sale or distribution of any
such securities during the period referred to in the foregoing clause (i),
including any sale pursuant to Rule 144, or any successor provision, under the
Securities Act (except as part of such Registration, if permitted).

     5.     REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.

     In connection with any offering of Registrable Securities registered
pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall:

            5.1.     Prepare and file with the Commission as soon as
practicable and in any event, within 120 days after receipt of a request for

form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities in
accordance with the intended methods of distribution thereof, and use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become
and remain Effective as provided herein, provided that before filing with the
Commission a Registration Statement or disclosure document constituting part

supplements to such Registration Statement and any disclosure document
constituting part of such Registration Statement used in connection therewith
as may be necessary to keep Effective such Registration Statement for a period
of not less than 180 days or such shorter period which will terminate when all
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold
(but not before the expiration of the 90 day period, if applicable, referred
to in Section 4(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 under the Securities
Act, or any successor thereto, if applicable), and comply with the provisions
of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities

the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such
Registration Statement.

          5.3.     Furnish to each holder and each underwriter, if any, of
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement such number of

document), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such
other documents as any holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request

<PAGE>
          5.4.     Use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify
such Registrable Securities under such other state securities or "blue sky"
laws of such jurisdictions as any holder, and underwriter, if any, of
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement reasonably
requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably
necessary or advisable to enable such holder and each underwriter, if any, to
consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities
owned by such holder; provided that the Company will not be required to (x)
qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not
otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 5, (y) subject itself to
taxation in any such jurisdiction or (z) consent to general service of process
in any such jurisdiction.

          5.5.     Use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to be registered
with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be
necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company to enable
the holder or holders thereof to consummate the disposition of such
Registrable Securities.

          5.6.     Immediately notify each holder of such Registrable
Securities at any time when a disclosure document relating thereto is required
to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event which
comes to the Company's attention if as a result of such event the disclosure
document included in such Registration Statement contains an untrue statement
of material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and
promptly prepare and furnish to such holder a Supplement or amendment to such
disclosure document so that, as thereafter delivered to the holders of such
Registrable Securities, such disclosure document will not contain an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

          5.7.     Use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such
Registrable Securities to be listed on a national securities exchange or the
NASDAQ national market and on each securities exchange upon which similar
securities issued by the Company may then be listed, and enter into such
customary agreements including a listing application and indemnification
agreement in customary form, and to provide a transfer agent and registrar for
such Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement no later
than the effective date of such Registration Statement.

          5.8.     Enter into such customary agreements (including an
underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other actions as
the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being covered by such
Registration Statement or the underwriters retained by such holders, if any,
reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such
Registrable Securities, including customary representations, warranties,
indemnities and agreements.

          5.9.     Make available for inspection by any holder of Registrable

participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, and
any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such holder or
underwriter (collectively, the "INSPECTORS"), all financial and other records,
pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively,
"RECORDS"), if any, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to
exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company's and its
Affiliates' officers, directors and employees to supply all information and
respond to all inquiries reasonably requested by any such Inspector in
connection with such Registration Statement.

          5.10.    Use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a "cold
comfort" letter from the Company's independent public accountants in customary
form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by "cold
comfort" letters as the holders of a majority in interest of the Registrable
Securities being sold reasonably request.

          5.11.    Otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply
with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make
available to the holders of Registrable Securities, as soon as reasonably
practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of at least twelve
months, beginning with the first month after the Effective Date of the
Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions
of Section I l(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

                                       6
<PAGE>
     It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of the Company to
take any action with respect to securities of a holder of Registrable
Securities that such holder shall furnish to the Company such information
regarding the securities held by such holder and the intended method of
disposition thereof as the Company shall reasonably request and as shall be
required In connection with the action taken by the Company.

     Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees that, upon receipt of any
notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in
Section 5.6, such holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable
Securities until such holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or
amended disclosure document contemplated by Section 5.6 hereof, and, if so
directed by the Company, such holder will deliver to the Company (at the
Company's expense) all copies (including, without limitation, any and all
drafts), other than permanent file copies, then in such holder's possession,
of the disclosure document covering such Registrable Securities current at the
time of receipt of such notice.  In the event the Company shall give any such
notice, the period mentioned in Section 5.2 shall be extended by the greater
of (x) three months or (y) the number of days during the period from and
including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 5.6 hereof
to and including the date when each holder of Registrable Securities covered
by such Registration Statement shall have received the copies of the
supplemented or amended disclosure document contemplated by Section 5.6.

     6.          INDEMNIFICATION.

                 6.1.     INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY.  In the event of any
Registration of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act
pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless, to
the full extent permitted by law, each of the holders of any Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement, their respective directors
and officers, general partners, limited partners and managing directors, each
person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of such
securities and each other person, if any, who controls, is controlled by or is
under common control with any such holder or any such underwriter within the
meaning of the Securities Act (and directors, officers, controlling persons,
partners and managing directors of any of the foregoing), against any and all
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, and expenses
(including any amounts paid in any settlement effected with the Company's
consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) to which such
holder, any such director or officer or general or limited partner or managing
director or any such underwriter or controlling person may become subject
under the Securities Act, state securities or "blue sky" laws, common law or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions
or proceedings in respect thereof) or expenses arise out of or are based upon
(i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained, on the effective date thereof, in any Registration Statement under
which such securities were registered under the Securities Act, any
preliminary, final or summary disclosure document contained therein, or any
amendment or supplement thereto, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged
violation by the Company of any federal, state or common law rule or
regulation applicable to the Company and relating to action required of or
inaction by the Company in connection with any such Registration.  The Company
shall reimburse each such holder and each such director, officer, general
partner, limited partner, managing director or underwriter and controlling
person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in
connection with investigating or defending such loss, claim, liability, action
or proceeding, provided, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case
to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or
proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
made in such Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto or in
any such preliminary, final or summary disclosure document in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company through an
instrument duly executed by such holder in its capacity as a holder of
Registrable Securities in the Company or any such director, officer, general
or limited partner, managing director or underwriter specifically stating that
it is for use in the preparation thereof; and, provided, further, that the
Company shall not be liable to any holder of Registrable Securities to the
extent that any such loss, claim,

                                       7
<PAGE>
damage, liability or action is solely attributable to the failure of such
Holder (or a broker engaged by the Holder)  to deliver a final prospectus (or
amendment or supplement thereto) furnished by the Company to the Holder  (or a
broker engaged by the Holder)  that corrects a material misstatement or
omission contained in the preliminary prospectus (or final prospectus).  The
indemnity provided for herein shall remain in full force and effect regardless
of any investigation made by or on behalf of such holder or any such director,
officer, general partner, limited partner, managing director, underwriter or
controlling person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such
holder.

          6.1.     INDEMNIFICATION BY THE HOLDERS OF REGISTRABLE SECURITIES
AND UNDERWRITERS.  Any Holder the Registrable Securities of which are included
in any Registration Statement shall, severally (and not jointly with any other
Holder), indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same
extent as `set forth in paragraph (a) above) the Company and its directors,
officers, controlling persons and all other prospective sellers and their
respective directors, officers, general and limited partners, managing
directors, and their respective controlling persons with respect to any
statement or alleged statement in or omission or alleged omission from such
Registration Statement, any preliminary, final or summary disclosure document
contained therein, or any amendment or supplement, if such statement or
alleged statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or its
representatives through an instrument duly executed by or on behalf of such
Holder specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation of such
Registration Statement, preliminary, final or summary disclosure document or
amendment or supplement, or a document incorporated by reference into any of
the foregoing. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless
of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any of the holders
of Registrable Securities, underwriters or any of their respective directors,
officers, general or limited partners, managing directors or controlling
persons and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such holder,
provided, however, that no such holder shall be liable in the aggregate for
any amounts exceeding the product of the sale price per Registrable Security
(after deduction of applicable underwriting discounts and commissions and
transfer taxes)and the number of Registrable Securities sold pursuant to such
Registration Statement or disclosure document by such holder.

          6.2.     NOTICES OF CLAIMS, ETC.  Promptly after receipt by an
indemnified party hereunder of written notice of the commencement of any
action or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be,
made pursuant to this Section 6, such indemnified Party will, if a claim in
respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, promptly give
written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such action,
provided that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided
herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under the
preceding subsections of this Section, except to the extent that the
indemnifying party is actually materially prejudiced by such failure to give
notice.  In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party,
unless in such indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest
between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such
claim, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, jointly
with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense
thereof, to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory
to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to
such indemnified party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal
or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the
defense thereof, unless in such indemnified party's reasonable judgment a
conflict of interest between such indemnified and parties arises in respect of
such claim after the assumption of the defense thereof, and the indemnifying
party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its
consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).  No indemnifying
party will consent of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not
include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or
plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect
to such claim or litigation.  An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or
elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the
fees and expenses of more than one counsel in any single jurisdiction for all
parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim,
unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of
interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such
indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the
indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such
additional counsel or counsels as may be reasonably necessary.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, and without
limiting any of the rights set forth above, in any event any party will have
the right to retain, at its own expense, counsel with respect to the defense
of a claim.

          6.3.     OTHER INDEMNIFICATION.  Indemnification similar to that
specified in the preceding subsections of this Section 6 (with appropriate
modifications) shall be given by the Company and each holder of Registrable
Securities with respect to any required Registration or other qualification of
securities under any federal or state law or regulation or governmental
authority other than the Securities Act.

          6.4.     CONTRIBUTION.  In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in
this Section is for any reason held to be unenforceable although applicable in
accordance with its terms, the Company, the holders of Registrable Securities
and the underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities,
claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by such indemnity
agreement incurred by the Company, the holders of Registrable Securities and
the underwriters, in such proportions that the underwriters are responsible
for that portion represented by the percentage that the underwriting discount
appearing in the disclosure document bears to the public offering price
appearing therein and the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities
are responsible for the balance; provided, however, that no person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  As between the Company and the
holders of Registrable Securities, such parties shall contribute to the
aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature
contemplated by such indemnity agreement in such proportion as shall be
appropriate to reflect (x) the relative benefits received by the Company, on
the one hand, and the holders of the Registrable Securities included in the
offering oil the other hand, from the offering of the Registrable Securities
and any other securities included such offering, and (y) the relative fault of
the Company, on the one hand, and the holders of the Registrable Securities
included in the offering, on the other, with respect to the statements or
omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, or
action in respect thereof as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations.  The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one
hand, and the holders of the Registrable Securities on the other, with respect
to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the sum of
the total purchase price paid to the Company in respect of the Registrable
Securities plus the total net proceeds from the offering of any securities
included in such offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company
bears to the amount by which the total net proceeds from the offering of
Registrable Securities (before deducting expenses but after deducting
applicable underwriting discounts and

                                       9
<PAGE>
commissions and transfer taxes) received by the holders of the Registrable
Securities with respect to such offering exceeds the purchase price paid to
the Company in respect of the Registrable Securities, and in each case the net
proceeds received from such offering shall be determined as set forth in the
disclosure document.  The relative fault shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates
to information supplied by the Company or the holders of the Registrable
Securities, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The Company and the holders of the Registrable Securities agree that it would
not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section were to be
determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which
does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company and the
holders of Registrable Securities agree that any contribution required to be
made by such holder pursuant to this Section 6.5 shall not exceed the net
proceeds from the offering of Registrable Securities (before deducting
expenses but after deducting applicable underwriting discounts and commissions
and transfer taxes) received by such holder with respect to such offering. For
purposes of this Section, each Person, if any, who controls a holder of
Registrable Securities or an underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Securities Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such holder
or Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company
who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls
the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have
the same rights to contribution as the Company.

     6.5.     RULE 144.

     At all times after a public offering of any of the Company's securities,
the Company agrees that it will file in a timely manner all reports required
to be filed by it pursuant to the Exchange Act, and, if at any time the
Company is not required to file such reports, it will make available to the
public, to the extent required to permit the sale of Shares by any holder of
Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, current
information about itself and its activities as contemplated by Rule 144 under
the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may deregister any class of its
equity securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or suspend its duty to
file reports with respect to any class of its securities pursuant to Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act if it is then permitted to do so pursuant to the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

     7.       MISCELLANEOUS.

              7.1.     NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.  No failure or delay on
the part of any party to this Agreement in exercising any right, power or
remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy
hereunder.

              7.2.     NOTICES.  All notices and other communications from the
Company to the Holders shall be mailed by recognized overnight courier first

may have been furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder, or, until an
address is so furnished, to and at the address of the last Holders who has so

              7.3.     MODIFICATION, ETC.  This Agreement and any term hereof

                        SECTION 1 - GENERAL INFORMATION

     1.1     ADOPTION AND PURPOSE OF PLAN.  The Employer hereby adopts this
Executive Separation Benefits Plan to provide certain separation benefits to
Eligible Employees in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan.

     1.2     STATUS OF PLAN.  The Plan and this document are intended to
comply with all applicable state and federal laws regarding severance pay
plans, specifically Title I of ERISA.  The Plan is intended to be a "welfare

Plan does not provide any pension or retirement benefits of any nature to any
person.

     1.3     SUMMARY PLAN DESCRIPTION.  The Plan Administrator is hereby
authorized to use this document embodying the Plan, as from time to time
amended, to satisfy all of the Plan's "summary plan description" requirements
pursuant to ERISA.

     1.4     EFFECTIVE DATE.  The Plan is effective as of March 6, 2000.

     1.5     PLAN YEAR.  For recordkeeping and reporting purposes, the Plan
Year shall be the twelve-month period ending each December 31.

limitation bonuses of any kind, overtime pay and shift differentials,
contributions (other than employee salary-reduction contributions) to any
retirement or other employee benefit plans, gains from receipt, vesting or
exercise of stock options, commissions, profit sharing payments, incentive
payments of any kind, special payments of any kind (including without
limitation business expense reimbursements, tuition reimbursements and
flexible spending account reimbursements) and contingent compensation of any
kind.

     2.2     "BOARD" means the Employer's Board of Directors.

<PAGE>
     2.3     "CHANGE IN CONTROL" A Change In Control of the Employer will

(within the meaning of Sections 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) (a "Person") of beneficial
ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange
Act) of 50 percent or more of either (i) the then outstanding shares of the
Employer's common stock (the "Common Stock") or (ii) the combined voting power
of the then outstanding voting securities of the Employer entitled to vote
generally in the election of the directors (the "Outstanding Employer Voting
Securities"); provided, however, that the following acquisitions shall not
constitute a Change in Control:  (A) any acquisition directly from the
Employer (excluding an acquisition by virtue of the exercise of a conversion
privilege); (B) any acquisition by the Employer or by any corporation
controlled by the Employer; (C) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan
(or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Employer or any corporation
controlled by the Employer; or (D) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant
to a consolidation or merger, if, following such consolidation or merger, the
conditions described in clauses (i) and (ii) of paragraph (c) of this
definition are satisfied; or

             (b)     Individuals who, as of the Effective Date, constitute the
Board (the "Incumbent Board") ceasing for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a
director subsequent to the Effective Date whose election, or nomination for
election by the Employer's shareholders, was approved by a vote or resolution
of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board
shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent
Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial
assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened
election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A
promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation
of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board.

             (c)     Adoption by the Board of a resolution approving an
agreement of consolidation of the Employer with or merger of the Employer into
another corporation or business entity in each case, unless, following such
consolidation or merger, (i) more than 50 percent of, respectively, the then
outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such
consolidation or merger and/or the combined voting power of the then
outstanding voting securities of such corporation or business entity entitled
to vote generally in the election of directors (or other persons having the
general power to direct the affairs of such entity) is then beneficially
owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals
and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Common Stock
and Outstanding Employer Voting Securities immediately prior to such
consolidation or merger in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership, immediately prior to such consolidation or merger, of the Common
Stock and/or Outstanding Employer Voting Securities, as the case may be and
(ii) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors (or other
group of persons having the general power to direct the affairs of the
corporation or other business entity) resulting from such consolidation or
merger were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the
initial agreement providing for such consolidation or merger; provided that
any right which shall vest by reason of the action of the Board pursuant to
this paragraph (c) shall be divested, with respect to any such right not
already exercised, upon (A) the rejection of such agreement of consolidation

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
or merger by the stockholders of the Employer or (B) its abandonment by either
party thereto in accordance with its terms; or

             (d)     Adoption by the requisite majority of the whole Board, or
by the holders of such majority of stock of the Employer as is required by law
or by the Articles of Organization or By-Laws of the Employer as then in
effect, of a resolution or consent authorizing (i) the  liquidation or
dissolution of the Employer or (ii) the sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Employer, other than to a corporation
or other business entity with respect to which, following such sale or other
disposition, (A) more than 50 percent of, respectively, the then outstanding
shares of common stock of such corporation and/or the combined voting power of
the outstanding voting securities of such corporation or other business entity
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (or other persons
having the general power to direct the affairs of such entity) is then
beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the
individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the
Common Stock and Outstanding Employer Voting Securities immediately prior to
such sale or other disposition in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership, immediately prior to such sale or other disposition, of the Common
Stock and/or Outstanding Employer Voting securities, as the case may be, and
(B) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors (or other
group of persons having the general power to direct the affairs of such
corporation or other entity) were members of the Incumbent Board at the time
of the execution of the initial agreement or action of the Board providing for
such sale or other disposition of assets of the Employer; provided that any
right which shall vest by reason of the action of the Board or the
stockholders pursuant to this paragraph (d) shall be divested, with respect to
any such right not already exercised, upon the abandonment by the Employer of
such dissolution, or such sale or other disposition of assets, as the case may
be.

        A Change in Control shall not occur upon the mere reincorporation of
the Employer in another state.

     2.4     "COVERED TERMINATION" means the termination of an Eligible
Employee's employment  (a) either (i) by the Eligible Employee for Good Reason
or (ii) involuntarily by the Employer (or its successor following a Change in
Control) for a reason other than Good Cause or disability and (b) on or after
the date on which a Change in Control occurs and on or before the second
anniversary of such date.  The term Covered Termination shall not include the

above.

     2.6     "ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEE" means an individual who (a) is designated on

     2.10    "GOOD CAUSE" means an Eligible Employee's (a) willful and

Employer's Chairman or a majority of its Board or (ii) a leave of absence
either granted in writing by the Employer or guaranteed by applicable law or
(iii) some other reason agreed to in advance by either the Employer's Chairman
or a majority of its Board); or (b) willful conduct which is demonstrably and
materially injurious to the Employer; or (c) conviction of a felony or a
misdemeanor involving the theft, misappropriation or embezzlement of property
of the Employer.

     No termination of an Eligible Employee's employment shall be for Good
Cause unless:  (a) notice of such Good Cause is provided to the employee by or
on behalf of the Board; and (b)  no valid prior or simultaneous notice of Good
Reason has been given by the employee; and (c) the employee is afforded an
opportunity to be heard before the Board, represented by counsel; and (d) a

is given to the Employee, unless the employee agrees to a postponement.

     For purposes of this subsection, the term Board shall include the board

the employee's eligibility for compensation or benefits programs generally
available to other Eligible Employees; or (d) a requirement imposed by the
Employer that the employee relocate to a new post at least 50 miles from his
or her then-existing post; or (e) only if so provided under any separate
agreement between the Employer and the Eligible Employee, the employee has not
been offered continued employment with the Employer or its successor following
a Change in Control on substantially the same terms and conditions of
employment as were in effect for the employee immediately prior to the Change
in Control.

     No resignation by an Eligible Employee shall be for Good Reason unless:
(a) notice of such Good Reason is provided to the Board by or on behalf of the
Eligible Employee and (b) the Employer fails to cure such asserted Good Reason
within thirty days after receipt of such notice; provided that the Employer
shall have the sole discretion to determine whether or not (i) to attempt or

                                      -4-
<PAGE>
complete such a cure or (ii) to dispute in good faith or accept the existence
of such Good Reason.

     For purposes of this subsection, the term Board shall include the board

which the Eligible Employee is employed following a Change in Control.

Benefits Period shall end earlier upon the Participant's failure to continue
satisfying all Eligibility Conditions.

     2.17    "SEPARATION PAY" means the continuation of a Participant's Base
Pay (salary) during the Separation Benefits Period or the payment of an equal
amount in a lump sum in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan.

     2.18    "SPECIAL CIC BENEFITS" means the benefits referred to in Section
3.3 and payable in the event of an Eligible Employee's Covered Termination.


                           SECTION 3 - BENEFITS UNDER THE PLAN

     3.1     TYPES OF BENEFITS.  An Eligible Employee whose employment with
the Employer (or its successor following a Change in Control) is terminated
solely due to a Covered Termination and with respect to whom all applicable
Eligibility Conditions set forth in Subsection 3.2 below are met shall be
entitled under this Plan to the following types of separation benefits:

     .01     Separation Pay as determined under Subsection 3.3 below;

     .02     Continued eligibility for certain employee benefit programs, as
described in Subsection 3.5 below;

     .03     Certain stock option benefits, as described in Subsection 3.6
below.

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
     3.2     ELIGIBILITY CONDITIONS; NO MITIGATION.  Notwithstanding anything
else in this Plan, separation benefits shall be provided under this Plan only
to an employee whose employment actually terminates  in a Covered Termination.
Furthermore, no employee shall be entitled to commence or continue receiving
separation benefits under the Plan unless all of the following conditions are
met and (to the extent applicable) continue to be met at all times:

     .01     The Eligible Employee must agree to and must sign and comply with
a separation letter satisfactory to the Employer (or its successor following a
Change in Control).  The separation letter may include, without limitation:
(a) a comprehensive release of all claims of any sort against the Employer
(and its present and former parents and subsidiaries and its successor
following a Change in Control (collectively, the "Employer Group")) and all
agents, employees, advisors and other representatives of the Employer Group in
a form reasonably satisfactory to the Employer and (b) an acknowledgment that
any then-existing agreements concerning confidentiality and/or non-competition
binding on the Eligible Employee will remain in effect in accordance with
their terms, but separation benefits under this Plan shall not otherwise be
conditioned upon the employee's agreement not to compete with the Employer
Group or to solicit any of the Employer Group's customers or employees during
the Separation Benefits Period.

     .02     If not already fully paid or terminated for any other reason, a
Participant's Separation Pay and other benefits under this Plan shall cease as
of the first date of any breach or other failure if the Participant breaches
the terms of any separation letter entered into with the Employer pursuant to
the requirements of clauses .01 above or any other applicable agreement or
otherwise materially fails to satisfy any obligations of the Participant to
the Employer under this Plan.

     .03     If not already fully paid or terminated for any other reason, a
Participant's Separation Pay and other benefits under this Plan shall cease as
of the first date of any misconduct if the Employer becomes aware of any
instance of the Participant's misconduct that would have constituted Good
Cause for termination of the Participant's employment, whether such misconduct
occurs prior to or following the Participant's termination of employment with
the Employer; but provided that the notice, hearing and Board majority
decision requirements of Subsection 2.10 are met promptly after discovery of
the misconduct.

     A Participant shall not be required to seek replacement employment as a
condition of receiving separation benefits and separation benefits otherwise
payable under this Plan shall not be reduced or terminated on account of any
employment undertaken by a Participant during or after his or her Separation
Benefits Period.

     3.3     AMOUNT OF SEPARATION PAY.  Effective for Covered Terminations
made on or after the Effective Date while this Plan remains in effect and
subject to Subsection 3.2, each Participant's Separation Pay shall equal the
amount determined under the applicable one of the following clauses:

     .01     BASIC BENEFIT:  Except as otherwise provided in clause .02 of
this Subsection 3.3, following his or her Covered Termination, a Participant
shall receive Separation Pay equal to twelve months of Base Pay.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>
     .02     SPECIAL CIC BENEFITS:  In lieu of the benefit provided in clause
 .01 of this Subsection 3.3, the Separation Pay of a Participant who is listed
on Appendix B shall be a lump sum amount equal to twelve months of Base Pay or
such greater amount, if any, as is (as of the date of the Change in Control)
either provided for under any separate agreement between the Employer and the
Participant or specified for the Participant in Appendix B to this Plan.

     3.4     PAYMENT OF BENEFITS.  Except in the case of Special CIC Benefits,
Separation Pay shall be due and payable until paid in full at the rate of the
Participant's Base Pay on each of the Participant's regular pay days during
the Separation Benefits Period.  If a Participant has on file with the
Employer a direct deposit authorization, such authorization will apply to all
or a portion of the Participant's Separation Pay, as specified in the direct
deposit authorization.  To the extent not directly deposited, checks for
Separation Pay will be mailed to a Participant's most recent address of which
the Plan Administrator has received notice in writing from the Participant.
Special CIC Benefits Separation Pay shall be paid to the Participant in one
lump sum at the time of (or as soon as possible after) the Participant's
Covered Termination.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Plan Administrator
receives written notice that the Participant is mentally incompetent, the
Employer shall pay the balance of the Participant's Separation Pay only to the
Participant's duly appointed legal representative.

     3.5     CONTINUED ELIGIBILITY FOR BENEFIT PROGRAMS.  Subject to
Subsection 3.2, during a Participant's Separation Benefits Period (or if
sooner, for such medical and dental plans as the Participant has continuation
rights under ERISA, until the Participant and his or her covered dependents
cease to have such coverage continuation rights),  the Participant shall be
eligible for continued coverage by and participation in the same employee
benefit programs (including without limitation, the medical and dental plans)
and with the same amount of employer contributions as the Participant was
eligible for on the date of the Covered Termination,  but only to the extent
that such programs allow for continuation of coverage.  To the extent
continuation coverage is not allowed, the Employer (or its successor following
a Change in Control) will pay an amount of additional Separation Pay during
the applicable benefits continuation period equal to the amount paid for the
discontinued benefits immediately prior to the Participant's Covered
Termination.  Payroll deductions for the Participant's share of the cost of
any contributory benefits (at the rate in effect from time to time for active
executive employees of the Employer or its successor following a Change in
Control) shall continue to be deducted from the Participant's Separation Pay,
provided that if the Separation Pay has been paid in one lump sum, the
Participant shall timely pay his or her share by personal check to the
Employer.

     Nothing in this Plan shall affect the Participant's right (if any) under
ERISA to elect continuation coverage at the Participant's own expense in the
Employer's medical and dental plans after the end of the Separation Benefits
Period.

     3.6     EFFECT OF CERTAIN COVERED TERMINATIONS ON CERTAIN STOCK OPTIONS.
The following special provisions shall apply to all options to acquire shares
of the Employer's capital stock held by a Participant whose employment with
the Employer (or successor following a Change in Control) is terminated solely
due to a Covered Termination, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
grant of such options or any agreement with respect to such options:

                                      -7-
<PAGE>
     .01     ACCELERATED VESTING.  Fifty percent (or such greater percentage,
if any, as is--as of the date of the Change in Control--either provided for
under any separate agreement between the Employer and the Participant or
specified for the Participant in Appendix B to this Plan) of any such options
which are not exercisable as of the date of the Participant's Covered
Termination shall become immediately exercisable on such date or, if sooner,
on the date that the Employer (or its successor following a Change in Control)
gives notice that any such non-exercisable options will be terminated in
accordance with their terms pursuant to a Change in Control without
replacement by substitute options of reasonably equivalent value.

     .02     GRACE PERIOD TO EXERCISE.  Subject to clause .03 below,  all
exercisable options held by the Participant (including those which become
exercisable pursuant to clause .01 above) on the date of his or her Covered
Termination shall remain exercisable for a period of twelve months after such
date (and for any longer period that the options would have remained
exercisable in accordance with their terms or as is--as of the date of the
Change in Control--either provided for under any separate agreement between
the Employer and the Participant or specified for the Participant in Appendix
B to this Plan).

     .03     TERMINATION OF GRACE PERIOD.  Notwithstanding the grace period
provided under clause .02 above, a Participant's options will terminate and
cease to be exercisable pursuant to this Plan upon the earliest to occur of:

             (a)     The date that such options would have expired if the
Participant had remained employed by the Employer throughout the grace period;

             (b)     The dissolution of the Employer, but any substitute
options in the securities of another company shall not be affected by the
Employer's dissolution; or

             (c)     The date set in any notice given that the options will be
terminated in accordance with their terms pursuant to a Change in Control, but
any substitute options in the securities of another company shall not be
affected by such termination and provided that such substitute options shall
be provided under a good-faith reasonable conversion formula if the Employer
(or its successor following a Change in Control) is reasonably able to do so.

     3.7     INDIVIDUAL ARRANGEMENTS.  Nothing in the Plan shall preclude the
Employer from entering into individual arrangements with employees for the
payment of severance benefits in addition to the benefits provided under the
Plan.  No such individual arrangement shall entitle any person not a party
thereto to any benefits of any nature.


                  SECTION 4 - PLAN AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

     4.1     EMPLOYER'S RIGHT TO AMEND OR TERMINATE PLAN.  The Employer may
amend or terminate the Plan only as provided in the applicable one of the
following clauses:

     .01     DURING THE FIRST TWO YEARS.  This Plan shall not be amended or
terminated on or before the second anniversary of the Effective Date except as
follows:
             (a)     TO PERMIT POOLING:  The Plan (including its Appendixes)
may be terminated or amended as necessary pursuant to a majority vote of the
Board taken consistently with an  understanding that failure to so terminate

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
or amend the Plan would prevent the Employer from entering into a then-
proposed transaction to be accounted for as a pooling of interests with one or
more other entities; provided that such understanding is based reasonably and
in good faith upon information provided to the Board by any of the following:
(i) the independent accountants of the Employer; (ii) the independent
accountants of any other party to the proposed transaction; or (iii) the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

             (b)     TO COMPLY WITH LAW:  The Plan (including its Appendixes)
may be amended as necessary pursuant to a majority vote of the Board taken
consistently with  a good-faith opinion of counsel to either the Employer or
the Board that such amendment is required by applicable law; provided that the
Employer shall thereupon use its best efforts to provide the Eligible
Employees and the Participants with the value of the benefits intended under
this Plan immediately prior to the effective date of the amendment.

             (c)     TO ADD ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES AND/OR SPECIAL CIC BENEFITS IN
APPENDIXES A AND B:  Appendixes A and/or B may be amended as necessary
pursuant to a majority vote of the Board to add Eligible Employees and/or
Special CIC Benefits.

     .02     AFTER THE SECOND YEAR.  Following the second anniversary of the
Effective Date, the Employer may amend or terminate this Plan as follows:

             (a)     PRIOR TO A CHANGE IN CONTROL:  Prior to the occurrence of
a Change in Control and following the second anniversary of the then most
recent Change in Control, the Employer may amend the Plan (including its
Appendixes) in any manner at any time and from time to time and may terminate
the Plan at any time.

             (b)     AFTER A CHANGE IN CONTROL:  After the occurrence of a
Change in Control and until the second anniversary of such Change in Control,
this Plan shall not be terminated and shall be amended only in accordance with
the provisions of clauses .01(b) or .01(c) of this Subsection 4.1.

     4.2     METHOD OF AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION.  Any amendment or termination
of the Plan shall be made by a written instrument signed by an officer of the
Employer upon due authorization by the Board.


                        SECTION 5 - PLAN ADMINISTRATION

     5.1     PLAN ADMINISTRATOR.  The Plan Administrator shall be a "named
fiduciary" for purposes of Section 402(a)(1) of ERISA, with authority to
control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan, and shall be
the agent for service of process against the Plan.  The Plan Administrator
shall have full power to administer the Plan in all matters, subject to
applicable requirements of law.  For this purpose, the Plan Administrator's
power shall include, but shall not be limited to the following authority, in
addition to all other powers provided by the Plan:

                                      -9-
<PAGE>
     .01     To make and enforce such rules and regulations as the Plan
Administrator deems necessary or proper for the efficient administration of
the Plan, including the establishment of any claims procedures that may be
required by applicable provisions of law;

     .02     To appoint such agents, counsel, accountants, consultants and
other persons to participate in the administration of the Plan as the Plan
Administrator deems appropriate;

     .03     To allocate and delegate the responsibilities of the Plan
Administrator and to designate other persons to carry out any of the Plan
Administrator's responsibilities; provided that any such allocation,
delegation or designation shall be in writing and in accordance with
applicable requirements of law;

     .04     To sue or be sued on behalf of the Plan and to appoint additional
agents for service of process; and

     .05     To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Plan Administrator
shall have the exclusive responsibility and discretion to decide all matters
relating to eligibility, coverage or benefits under the Plan and to interpret
all provisions of the Plan and to determine all matters relating to the
operation and administration of the Plan.  Any determination by the Plan
Administrator shall be final and binding, in the absence of clear and
convincing evidence that the Plan Administrator acted arbitrarily and
capriciously.

     5.2     RECORDS.  The Plan Administrator shall maintain such records as
it deems necessary to determine benefits and eligibility under the Plan and
shall make available to each Participant such portions of the records under
the Plan as pertain to the Participant, for examination at reasonable times
during normal business hours.

     5.3     RELIANCE.  In administering the Plan, the Plan Administrator
shall be entitled to the extent permitted by law to rely conclusively on all
information (including without limitation all tables, valuations,
certificates, opinions and reports) which is furnished by or in accordance
with the instructions or recommendations of accountants, counsel, actuaries,
consultants or other experts employed or engaged by the Plan Administrator.

     5.4     INDEMNIFICATION.  Except as prohibited by law, any individual or
individuals serving as Plan Administrator (or as a member of any board or
committee that serves as Plan Administrator) shall be indemnified in full by
the Employer against expenses, including attorneys' fees, and against the
amount of any judgment, money decree, fine or penalty, or against the amount
of any settlement deemed reasonable by the Board, necessarily paid or incurred
by such individual or individuals in connection with or arising out of any
claim made, or any civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding of whatever
nature brought against such individual, or in which such individual is made a
party, or in which such individual is otherwise involved, by reason of being
or having been such Plan Administrator (or any member of any such board or
committee).  Such indemnification shall apply to any such individual even
though at the time of such claim, action, suit or proceeding such individual
is no longer Plan Administrator (or a member of any such board or committee).

                                     -10-
<PAGE>
                       SECTION 6 - MISCELLANEOUS MATTERS

     6.1     INFORMATION REQUIRED.  Participants and Eligible Employees shall
provide the Plan Administrator with such information and evidence, and shall
sign such documents, as may be requested from time to time for the purpose of
administering the Plan.

     6.2     NO GUARANTY OF EMPLOYMENT.  This Plan shall not be a contract of
employment between the Employer and any employee.  Nothing contained in the
Plan document nor any action taken in connection with the adoption, operation
or maintenance of the Plan shall be construed as a contract of employment
between the Employer and any employee or as consideration or inducement for
the employment of any employee.  Nothing in the Plan or in the adoption,
operation or maintenance of the Plan shall give any employee the right to
remain in the Employer's employ, nor shall it give the Employer the right to
require any employee to remain in its employ, nor shall it interfere with the
employee's right to terminate his or her employment at any time.  Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Employer shall have the right to
terminate or change the terms of employment of any employee, Eligible Employee
or Participant at any time and for any reason whatsoever, with or without
cause or notice.

     6.3     EXCLUSIVE PLAN.  Except to the extent otherwise expressly
provided herein or in any separate agreement between the Employer (or its
successor following a Change in Control) and an Eligible Employee, this Plan
shall exclusively govern any claims for any type of severance benefits as a
result of any termination of employment due to a Covered Termination on or
after the Effective Date, while the Plan remains in effect.  Any other
generally applicable severance plans of any nature maintained by the Employer
shall be terminated as of such Effective Date with respect to any claims for
severance benefits as a result of any Covered Termination occurring on or
after such Effective Date.

     6.4     SOLE SOURCE FOR PAYMENT OF BENEFITS.  All benefits provided under
the Plan shall be paid solely from the general assets of the Employer.
Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to require the Employer or the Plan
Administrator to maintain any fund or segregate any amount for the benefit of
any Participant, and no Participant or any other person shall have any claim
against, right to, or security or other interest in, any fund, account or
asset of the Employer from which any payment under the Plan may be made.
Neither the Employer nor any director, officer, employee or agent or other
representative of the Employer shall be liable, otherwise than as expressly
provided in the Plan, for payment of any benefits under the Plan or shall have
any other liability to a Participant or to any other person.

     6.5     NON-ALIENATION.  No benefit payable under the Plan shall be
subject in any manner whatsoever to alienation, sale, transfer, assignment,
pledge, attachment or encumbrance of any kind, and each and every attempt to
alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, attach or encumber any such benefit
under the Plan shall be void and of no force and effect whatsoever.

     6.6     NO VESTING.  No person shall have any vested or non-forfeitable
interest at any time in any payment or other benefit provided under the Plan.

     6.7     OBLIGATIONS TO WITHHOLD AND PAY TAXES.  Each Participant shall be
liable for all tax obligations, if any, with respect to any sum received or
other benefit provided pursuant to the Plan and for accurately reporting all

                                     -11-
<PAGE>
such income and paying in full all such taxes to the appropriate federal,
state and local authorities.  The Employer shall have the right to deduct and
withhold from any payment due under the Plan or from other amounts owed to the
Participant all withholding taxes and other amounts required by law.

     6.8     GOVERNING LAW.  The Plan and the rights of all persons under the
Plan shall be construed in accordance with and under applicable provisions of
the laws of Massachusetts, except to the extent federal laws pre-empt such
laws.


                         SECTION 7 - CLAIMS PROCEDURE

     7.1     CLAIM FOR BENEFITS.  Eligible Employees do not need to file a
claim for benefits under the Plan.  If an individual believes that he or she
is eligible for severance benefits even though no such benefits have been
offered, or if an Eligible Employee or Participant believes that his or her
benefits have been calculated incorrectly or terminated prematurely or that
the Plan has been otherwise violated, the aggrieved individual may file a
claim with the Plan Administrator.  The Plan Administrator shall advise the
claimant either that the claim is allowed, or that the claim is denied, or
that the claimant needs to submit additional information.  If the claim is
denied, the Plan Administrator shall furnish the claimant written notice of
such denial within a reasonable time after receipt of the claim, and such
notice shall include:

     .01     the reason for the denial;

     .02     specific references to Plan provisions on which the denial is
             based; and

     .03     information as to how to submit the claim for review.

If no notice of denial is furnished within 90 days after receipt of the claim
by the Plan Administrator, the claim shall be deemed denied.

     7.2     APPEALS.  If a claim filed under Subsection 7.1 is denied (or
deemed denied), the claimant may file a request for review with the Plan
Administrator.  The claimant shall be entitled to examine pertinent documents,
to submit issues and comments in writing and to request a hearing before the
Plan Administrator.  The appeal of any claim must be submitted in writing
within 60 days after (a) the date that the claim was deemed denied or (b) the
receipt of notice of denial by the claimant, whichever is applicable.  The
Plan Administrator shall send the claimant a written decision regarding the
appeal.  Normally, the decision will be made within 60 days after the appeal
is filed, but if the Plan Administrator determines that additional time is
reasonably necessary, up to 60 additional days may be taken to resolve the
appeal.  The decision of the Plan Administrator on such review shall be final.


                           SECTION 8 - ERISA RIGHTS

     8.1     PARTICIPANTS' RIGHTS.  ERISA guarantees each individual who is a
Participant in the Plan certain rights and protections.  In summary, ERISA
provides that all Participants are entitled to:

                                     -12-
<PAGE>
     .01     Examine, without charge, at the Employer's benefits office and at
other specified work sites, the Plan document, including copies of all
documents filed in connection with the Plan with the U.S. Department of Labor,
such as detailed annual reports (if required by applicable law).

     .02     Obtain copies of all Plan documents and other Plan information
upon written request to the Employer's benefits office.  The benefits office
may make a reasonable charge for such copies.

     .03     Receive a summary of the Plan's financial report (if required by
applicable law).  The Employer's benefits office is required by law to furnish
each Participant with a copy of each required summary annual report.

     8.2     FIDUCIARY DUTIES.  In addition to creating rights for
Participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible for the
operation of employee benefit plans.  The people who operate the Plan, called
"fiduciaries," have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of
Participants and beneficiaries.  No one, including the Employer or any other
person, may fire anyone or otherwise discriminate against anyone in any way to
prevent that individual from obtaining a benefit or exercising rights under
ERISA.  If a claim for a benefit is denied in whole or in part, a written
explanation of the reason for the denial must be given.  Individuals also have
the right to have the Plan Administrator review and reconsider a claim.

     8.3     ENFORCEMENT OF RIGHTS.  Under ERISA, there are steps that any
person with rights under the Plan may take to enforce those rights.  For
example, if a Participant requests materials from the Employer's benefits
office and does not receive them within 30 days, he or she may file suit in a
federal court.  In such case, the court may require the Employer to provide
the materials and to pay up to $100 per day until the materials are provided,
unless the materials were not provided because of reasons beyond the
Employer's control.

     If a claim for benefits is denied or ignored in whole or in part, the
aggrieved individual may file suit in a state or federal court.

     If the Plan fiduciaries misuse the Plan's money, or if the Plan
discriminates against an individual for asserting rights under ERISA, the
individual may seek assistance from the U.S. Department of Labor or may file
suit in federal court.  The court will decide who will pay court costs and
legal fees.  If the individual is successful, the court may order the person
sued to pay those costs and fees.  If the individual is unsuccessful, the
court may order him or her to pay those costs and fees if, for example, it
finds the claim to be frivolous.

     Questions about the Plan should be directed to the Plan Administrator.
Questions about this statement or about an individual's rights under ERISA
should be directed to the nearest Area Office of the U.S. Labor-Management
Services Administration, Department of Labor.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Employer, by its duly authorized officer, has
executed this document, under seal.
