    such shares pursuant to the shareholder agreements described below and
    certain purchase options that may be exercised by Mr. Isakow with respect to
    45,040 outstanding shares of Common Stock.

(2) Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Abelman's Employment and Noncompetition
    Agreement with Oxford Automotive, Oxford Automotive repurchased 6,462 of Mr.
    Abelman's shares of Common Stock upon the termination of his employment and
    assigned its right to purchase 3,522 of Mr. Abelman's shares to Mr. Isakow

    Isakow. Under the Pledge Agreement, Mr. Bukatko has sole voting power over
    his shares but is not permitted to dispose of his shares without Mr.
    Isakow's consent.


SHAREHOLDER AGREEMENTS

Each holder of Common Stock is a party to a shareholder agreement that provides
for certain restrictions on transfer by shareholders and grants certain other
shareholders the option to purchase the shares of a shareholder upon his death.
Each surviving shareholder has the right to exercise this option within 30 days
of the death of a shareholder. The exercising shareholders will divide the
deceased shareholder's shares as they agree or, if they are not able to agree,
pro rata. If the exercising shareholders are not able to agree on a purchase
price with the estate of the deceased shareholder, then the per share purchase
price shall be the per share value of the Company based on the greater of the
value of the Company as a going concern or on a liquidation basis, as determined
by an independent appraisal. The purchase price shall be paid by an initial cash
payment of up to 20% of the purchase price with the balance paid pursuant to a
five-year, unsecured promissory note bearing interest at the prime rate. The
agreements also provide that each shareholder will grant a proxy to Mr. Isakow
to vote all of the shareholder's shares at any meeting of the Company; provided,
however, that if holders of shares having a majority in interest of the shares
of Common Stock determine that it is in the best interest of all of the
shareholders to sell all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or to
cause the Company to merge or consolidate with or into another corporation, Mr.
Isakow shall exercise the proxies provided to him consistent with that decision.
As a result, except as described above, Mr. Isakow has voting control over 100%
of the Common Stock.
