ITEM 1.    BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

         CLN Holdings Inc. (formerly known as Coleman Escrow Corp. ("CLN 
Holdings")), is a holding company formed in May 1997 in connection with the 
offering of Senior Secured First Priority Discount Notes due 2001 (the "Old 
First Priority Notes") and Senior Secured Second Priority Discount Notes due 
2001 (the "Old Second Priority Notes" and together with the Old First 
Priority Notes, the "Old Priority Notes") to hold all of the outstanding 
shares of capital stock of Coleman Holdings Inc. ("Coleman Holdings"). In 
November 1997, CLN Holdings consummated a registered exchange offer whereby 
the Old First Priority Notes and the Old Second Priority Notes were exchanged 
for a like principal amount of Senior Secured First Priority Discount 
Exchange Notes due 2001 and the Senior Security Second Priority Discount 
Exchange Notes due 2001, respectively, (the "Exchange Notes" and collectively 
with the Old Priority Notes, the "Escrow Notes"). The Old Priority Notes and 
the Exchange Notes have substantially identical terms. Coleman Holdings was a 
holding company formed in July 1993 in connection with the offering of Senior 
Secured Discount Notes due 1998 (the "Holdings Notes") to hold all of the 
outstanding shares of capital stock of Coleman Worldwide Corporation 
("Coleman Worldwide"). On July 15, 1997, Coleman Holdings was merged into CLN 
Holdings. Coleman Worldwide is a holding company formed in March 1993 in 
connection with the offering of Liquid Yield Option Notes -TM- due 2013 (the 
"LYONs" -TM-). Coleman Worldwide also holds 44,067,520 shares of the common 
stock of The Coleman Company, Inc. ("Coleman" or the "Company") which 
represents approximately 82% of the outstanding Coleman common stock as of 
March 3, 1998. Coleman is a leading manufacturer and marketer of consumer 
products for outdoor recreation and home hardware use on a global basis. The 
Company's products have been sold domestically and internationally under the 
Coleman brand name since the 1920s. The Company believes its strong market 
position is attributable primarily to its well-recognized trademarks, 
particularly the Coleman brand name, broad product line, product quality and 
innovation, and marketing, distribution and manufacturing expertise.

         The Company has two primary classes of products, outdoor recreation and
hardware. The Company's principal outdoor recreation products include a
comprehensive line of lanterns and stoves, fuel-related products such as
disposable fuel cartridges, a broad range of coolers and jugs, sleeping bags,
backpacks, daypacks, adventure travel gear, tents, outdoor folding furniture,
portable electric lights, spas, camping accessories and other products. The
Company's principal hardware products include portable generators, portable and
stationary air compressors, and safety and security products such as smoke
alarms, carbon monoxide detectors and thermostats. The Company has entered into
a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of February 18, 1998 (the "CSS Sale
Agreement") with Ranco Incorporated of Delaware ("Ranco") and Siebe plc, the
parent of Ranco, for the sale of Coleman Safety & Security Products, Inc.
("CSS"), which manufactures such safety and security products. The Company's
products, which are mostly used for outdoor recreation, home improvement
projects, and emergency preparedness, are distributed predominantly through mass
merchandisers, home centers and other retail outlets.

BACKGROUND

         Coleman is a subsidiary of Coleman Worldwide. Coleman Worldwide is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of CLN Holdings, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of
New Coleman Holdings Inc. ("Holdings"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of
MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc. ("MacAndrews Holdings"), a corporation wholly
owned through Mafco Holdings Inc. ("Mafco" and, together with MacAndrews
Holdings, "MacAndrews & Forbes") by Ronald O. Perelman. Coleman Worldwide owns
44,067,520 shares of the common stock of Coleman which represented approximately
82% of the outstanding Coleman common stock as of December 31, 1997.

         On February 27, 1998, CLN Holdings and Coleman (Parent) Holdings Inc.,
the parent company of CLN Holdings, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the "CLN Holdings Merger Agreement") with Sunbeam Corporation ("Sunbeam") and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Sunbeam ("Laser Merger Sub"). The CLN Holdings Merger
Agreement provides that, among other things, Laser Merger Sub will be merged
(the "CLN Holdings Merger") with CLN Holdings. Pursuant to the CLN Holdings
Merger Agreement, the shares of CLN Holdings' common stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the CLN

                                       3

<PAGE>

Holdings Merger will be converted into the right to receive in the aggregate
14,099,749 shares of Sunbeam's common stock and $159,957,756 in cash, without
interest. In addition, the outstanding $732.0 million principal amount at
maturity of Escrow Notes of CLN Holdings will remain an obligation of CLN
Holdings following the CLN Holdings Merger.

         Coincident with the execution of the CLN Holdings Merger Agreement, the
Company, Sunbeam and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sunbeam ("Merger Sub"),
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Coleman Merger Agreement" and
with the CLN Holdings Merger Agreement, collectively the "Merger Agreements"),
providing that, among other things, Merger Sub will be merged (the "Coleman
Merger") with the Company. Pursuant to the Coleman Merger Agreement, each share
of the Company's common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
effective time of the Coleman Merger (other than shares held by Coleman
Worldwide and dissenting shares, if any) will be converted into the right to
receive (a) 0.5677 of a share of Sunbeam common stock, with cash paid in lieu of
fractional shares, and (b) $6.44 in cash, without interest.

         Consummation of the CLN Holdings Merger is subject to the expiration of
the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements
Act of 1976, as amended, and the satisfaction of certain other customary
conditions. It is currently anticipated that the CLN Holdings Merger will be
completed later this month or early next month. Consummation of the Company
Merger is subject to the completion of the CLN Holdings Merger at the filing of
certain definitive documents required in connection therewith with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. It is anticipated that the Company Merger
will be consummated later this Spring.

         Following consummation of the CLN Holdings Merger, CLN Holdings will be
a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Sunbeam. Following consummation of the
Coleman Merger, the Company will be an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of
Sunbeam.

         The Company has made several acquisitions in recent years designed to
expand its product lines. In 1996, the Company acquired the French company
Application des Gaz ("Camping Gaz") which is a leader in the European camping
equipment market and also acquired the assets of Seatt Corporation ("Seatt"), a
leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of smoke alarms, thermostats and
carbon monoxide detectors. In 1995, the Company acquired Sierra Corporation of
Fort Smith, Inc. ("Sierra"), a manufacturer of portable outdoor and recreational
folding furniture and accessories and substantially all of the assets of Active
Technologies, Inc. ("ATI"), a manufacturer of technologically advanced
lightweight generators and battery charging equipment. In 1994, the Company
acquired substantially all of the assets of Eastpak, Inc. and all of the capital
stock of M.G. Industries, Inc. (together, "Eastpak"), a leading designer,
manufacturer and distributor of branded daypacks, sports bags and related
products; and substantially all of the assets of Sanborn Manufacturing Company
("Sanborn"), a manufacturer of a broad line of portable and stationary air
compressors.

         The Company also restructured certain operations. In 1994, the Company
completed the restructuring of its German manufacturing operations (the "German
Restructuring"), including selling its plastic cooler business located in
Inheiden, Germany and Loucka, Czech Republic. In 1996, the Company closed the
Brazilian manufacturing operations it had acquired from Metal Yanes, Ltda. in
1994. In 1997, the Company undertook further restructuring including (i) exiting
various low margin products, including pressure washers, (ii) closing and
relocating certain administrative and sales offices, and (iii) closing several
manufacturing facilities.

         On February 18, 1998, the Company entered into the CSS Sale Agreement.
The sale price is approximately $105.0 million and is subject to adjustment. The
closing under the CSS Sale Agreement is expected to occur by the end of March
1998. In addition, the Company will license to Ranco the right to use the
"Coleman" name on retail smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors, and certain
other products.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

         The Company's business strategy is to build upon its reputation as a
leading manufacturer and marketer of high quality brand name consumer products
for the outdoor recreation and hardware markets. The specific operating
strategies include:

                  FOCUS ON QUALITY AND SERVICE. Since the business of the
         Company was founded in the early 1900's, Coleman has built a reputation
         for its quality products and superior customer service. The Company is
         committed to continuing, and building upon, this reputation.

                  INTRODUCING NEW PRODUCTS. The Company plans to continue
         introducing new products. Management intends to focus on leveraging the
         Company's existing technologies, processes and expertise to maximize
         the speed and efficiency of new product development and introductions.

                  DEVELOPING EXISTING BRANDS. The Company believes it has some
         of the more prominent brand names for outdoor recreation and home
         hardware use and plans to strengthen these brands through superior
         product design, advertising, and promotion.

                  EXPANDING INTERNATIONAL MARKETS. Coleman is currently a market
         leader in several product categories in various markets around the
         world, including the United States, Europe and Japan. The Company plans
         to utilize its well-established infrastructures in these markets to
         expand its core product categories and to invest appropriately to
         develop and build businesses in new geographic markets.

                  DEVELOPING HUMAN RESOURCES. The Company plans to continue
         developing, training, and motivating its personnel at all levels to
         achieve excellence, including developing and building its team of
         experienced managers.

                  OPERATING EFFICIENCY. The Company plans to continue seeking
         ways to further improve the quality and efficiency of its business
         processes in order to ensure quality, realize cost savings, and improve
         customer service.

         Following the consummation of the CLN Holdings Merger, such business
strategy may change.

         In the United States and Canada, the Company's outdoor recreation
products are sold by the Company's own sales force and, to a lesser extent, by
sales representatives that serve specialty markets and related distribution
channels. Spa products, however, are sold by independent sales representatives
to a nationwide dealer network and, to a lesser extent, by regional sales
managers employed by the Company. The Company's hardware products are sold by
Company and independent sales representatives that serve specialty markets and
related distribution channels.

         The Company promotes its products through national and local
advertising campaigns, frequently coordinating with retailers' promotions to
maximize the benefits of its advertising efforts.

         Coleman's major customers include Canadian Tire, Home Depot, Kmart,
Price/Costco, Target, and Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart and its affiliates accounted for
approximately 13% of the Company's 1997 consolidated net revenues. Although the
loss of Wal-Mart as a customer could have an adverse effect on the Company, the
Company believes its relationship with Wal-Mart is satisfactory and the Company
has no reason to believe Wal-Mart will not continue as a customer.

         International sales represented 31%, 32% and 24% of net revenues for
the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. For 1997,
approximately 80% of the Company's international sales were in Japan and Europe,
with the balance in Latin America, Asia-Pacific, Africa and the Middle East. The
Company has sales administration offices and warehouse and distribution
facilities in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, the Czech Republic, France,
Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, The Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland,
the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom. Each office is responsible for
sales and distribution of the Company's products in the territories assigned to
that office. The Company's direct export operations market its products directly
to international customers in certain other markets through Company sales
managers, independent distributors, and commissioned sales representatives. In
total, the Company sells its products in more than 100 countries.

SEASONALITY

         The Company's sales generally are highest in the second quarter of 
the year and lowest in the fourth quarter.  As a result of this seasonality, 
the Company has generally incurred a loss in the fourth quarter.  The 
Company's sales may be affected by weather conditions.

COMPETITION

         The markets in which the Company operates are generally highly
competitive, based primarily on product quality, product innovation, price and
customer service and support. The Company's competitors vary according to
product line. The Company believes that no other company produces and markets
the breadth of camping and outdoor recreation products marketed by the Company.
Lanterns and stoves compete with, among others, products offered by Century
Primus (a unit of Century Tool & Manufacturing Inc.), American Camper (a unit of
Brunswick Corporation) and Dayton Hudson Corporation. The Company's insulated
cooler and jug products compete with products offered by Rubbermaid
Incorporated, Igloo Products Corp. (a unit of Brunswick Corporation) and The
Thermos Company (a unit of Nippon Sanso KK). The Company's sleeping bags compete
with, among others, American Recreation and Slumberjack (units of Kellwood
Company), Academy Broadway Corp. and MZH Inc. (a unit of Brunswick Corporation),
as well as certain private label manufacturers. In the tent market, the Company
competes with, among others, Sears, Wenzel (a unit of Kellwood Company), Eureka
(a unit of Johnson Worldwide Associates, Inc.) and Mountain Safety Research (a
unit of Thaw Corporation), as well as certain private label manufacturers. The
Company's backpack products compete with, among others, American Camper (a unit
of Brunswick Corporation), JanSport (a unit of VF Corporation), Nike, Outdoor
Products and Kelty (a unit of Kellwood Company), as well as certain private
label manufacturers. The Company's competition in the electric light business
includes, among others, Eveready (a unit of Ralston Purina Company) and Rayovac
Corporation. The Company's spas compete with, among others, Watkins
Manufacturing Corporation (d.b.a. Hot Springs, a unit of Masco Corporation) and
Clark Manufacturing Company, Inc. (d.b.a. Sundance Spas). The Company's camping
accessories compete primarily with Coughlan's. The Company's primary competitors
in the generator business are Generac Corporation, Honda Motor Co., Ltd.,
Kawasaki and Yamaha. Primary competitors in the air compressor business include
DeVilbiss and Campbell Hausfield. The Company's safety and security products
compete primarily with First Alert, American Sensor and Nighthawk (a unit of
Williams Holding PLC). In addition, the Company competes with various other
entities in international markets.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, AND LICENSES

         The Company's operations are not significantly dependent upon any
single or related group of patents. While the Company does not believe any
single trademark is material to its business other than the "Coleman" word mark
and the "Coleman in parallelogram with lantern symbol" logo mark and the
"Eastpak" trademark, it believes its trademarks taken as a whole are material to
its business. Accordingly, the Company has taken actions to protect its
interests in all such trademarks.

         The Company licenses the Coleman name and logo under two types of
licensing arrangements: general merchandise licenses and licenses to purchasers
of businesses divested by the Company and Holdings. The Company's general
merchandise licensing activities involve licensing the Coleman name and logo,
for a royalty fee, to certain companies that manufacture and sell products that
complement the Company's product lines.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

         The Company's research and development efforts are linked to the
process of marketing its products. New products and improvements to existing
products are developed based upon the perceived needs and demands of consumers.
The Company's research and development is performed primarily by an in-house
team of marketing managers, engineers, draftsmen and product testers using tools
such as computer-assisted design and a variety of consumer research techniques.
Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred. The amounts
charged against operations for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995
were $11.9 million, $11.1 million and $6.5 million, respectively.

* To be disposed of as part of the CSS Sale Agreement.

        The Wichita, Kansas; New Braunfels, Texas; Lake City, South Carolina;
Cedar City, Utah; Pocola, Oklahoma; Chandler, Arizona; Springfield, Minnesota;
and Centenaro di Lonato, Italy facilities are owned by the Company. The owned
facilities at Kearney, Nebraska reside on land leased under three leases that
expire in 2007 with options to extend for three additional ten-year periods. The
Maize, Kansas facility is leased by the

                                      9

<PAGE>

Company under leases that terminate in 2005. The Company has an option to
purchase this facility at the end of the lease period. The Puerto Rico
facilities in Morovis and Orocovis are leased for terms that expire in 1999 and
2007, respectively. The warehouse portion of St. Genis Laval, France is leased
for terms that expire in 1998, the remaining facility is owned; and 48,000
square feet of the Chihuahua, Mexico property are leased for terms that expire
in 2004, the remaining facility is owned. Company management considers the
Company's facilities to be well maintained, adequate, suitable and satisfactory
for the Company's operations, and believes that the Company's facilities provide
sufficient capacity for its production requirements.

PRODUCT LIABILITY AND INSURANCE

        The Company is party to various product liability lawsuits relating to
its products and incidental to its business. The Company believes that many of
the personal injury and damage claims brought against it arise from the misuse
or misapplication of the Company's products. In such cases, the Company
vigorously defends against such actions. Since the beginning of 1986, in only
one policy period did the Company have a product liability award that exceeded
the individual per occurrence self-insured retention amount and product
liability awards that exceeded the aggregate self-insured retention amount.
There can be no assurance, however, that the Company's future product liability
experience will be consistent with its past experience. The Company believes
that the ultimate conclusion of the various pending product liability claims and
lawsuits of the Company will not have a material adverse effect on the financial
position or results of operations of the Company.

        The Company participates in product liability insurance programs
maintained by Holdings and reimburses Holdings for its allocable share of the
cost of such coverage. Such liability insurance is written on a "claims made"
basis. A "claims made" policy generally insures the Company for any claims made
while such insurance coverage is in effect regardless of when the incident or
event occurred. There can be no assurance that the Company's insurance carrier
would not discontinue the Company's policy after the occurrence of, but prior to
a claims with respect to, an incident or event giving rise to a claim. The
Company believes that, in such event, it would be able to obtain insurance
coverage that would cover the particular incident or event and replace the
Company's existing policy, although there can be no assurance that the Company
could obtain such coverage or that it would be on terms comparable to its
existing coverage.

        Under Holdings' product liability insurance coverages, the Company
retains liability in the amount of $2 million per occurrence and $4 million in
the aggregate for the policy year. The Company believes that this type and level
of coverage is adequate. For a discussion of the Company's policy on accrual of
reserves for the self-insured portions of the risks covered by the insurance
programs maintained by Holdings, see Notes 1 and 12 of the Consolidated
Financial Statements of CLN Holdings.

        As a result of and effective with the consummation of the CLN Holdings
Merger, the Company will no longer participate in insurance programs sponsored
by Holdings (except for claims made prior to the consummation of the CLN
Holdings Merger), and will either obtain replacement insurance on its own and/or
obtain replacement insurance under policies maintained by Sunbeam.

ITEM 3.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

        GILBERT AND MOSLEY SITE. As a result of investigations undertaken in
1986, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment ("KDHE") discovered that
groundwater in the downtown Wichita area (the "Gilbert and Mosley Site") was
contaminated with volatile organic chemicals ("VOCs"). Coleman occupied a
facility within the boundaries of the Gilbert and Mosley Site. Subsequent
investigations in the area, including investigations in November 1988 by
Coleman, indicated that the groundwater beneath the Coleman property is
contaminated with VOCs. Coleman is in the process of remediating the
contamination on its property.

                                     10

<PAGE>

        The City of Wichita has entered into a voluntary agreement with KDHE in
which the City agreed to investigate and then remediate contamination in the
Gilbert and Mosley Site. Coleman has entered into an agreement with KDHE in
which Coleman agreed to perform a similar study for the Coleman property and to
implement remedial activities at its property. In addition, Coleman entered into
an agreement with the City of Wichita in which Coleman agreed to fund its
proportionate share of the City's study and remediation of the Gilbert and
Mosley site.

        All previously filed lawsuits alleging that properties in the downtown
Wichita area were diminished in value as a result of discharges of volatile
organic chemicals from Coleman's downtown Wichita facility have been settled and
dismissed.

        MAIZE SITE. Coleman has undertaken a soil and groundwater investigation
at its facility in Maize, Kansas (the "Maize Site"). Results indicate that
limited VOC contamination is present in the groundwater under and to the
southeast of the facility. The data has been reported to the KDHE, and Coleman
has entered into an agreement with KDHE to implement appropriate remedial
actions. The remediation system has been installed, and Coleman is in the
process of remediating the contaminated groundwater.

        NORTHEAST SITE. In 1990 Coleman undertook a soil and groundwater
investigation of its facility in northeast Wichita (the "Northeast Site").
Results indicated the presence of VOCs in the groundwater and soils. Although
some of the contamination may be a result of Coleman's operations at the
facility, the data also indicated that contamination was migrating onto the
Coleman property from up gradient sources. Coleman reported the initial results
of its study to KDHE. Coleman has also provided copies of all data to the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA"), at its request. The EPA has
not initiated any actions against the Company with respect to the Northeast
Site. An agreement has been entered into with KDHE to undertake additional
investigatory activities, and an interim remediation system has been installed.

        LAKE CITY SITE. In 1992, Coleman undertook a soil and groundwater
investigation of its facility in Lake City, South Carolina (the "Lake City
Site"). Results indicated limited VOC and fuel oil contamination in the soil and
groundwater. In both instances, the contamination appeared to relate to the
activities of a previous occupant of the Lake City Site. The results of the
investigation were reported to the appropriate South Carolina environmental
agency and Coleman took legal action against the prior owner. In early 1998, the
lawsuit was settled and the prior owner agreed to take over further site
investigations and remediation actions and to reimburse Coleman for a
significant part of Coleman's past costs related to site investigation.

        The Company has not been named as a potentially responsible party
("PRP") by the EPA nor does it have joint and several liability with any other
PRP for remediation at any of the above sites.

        The Company has adopted an environmental policy designed to ensure that
the Company operates in full compliance with applicable environmental
regulations and, where appropriate, the Company's own internal standards.
Coleman has also undertaken an environmental compliance audit program. The
Company makes expenditures that it believes are necessary to comply with
environmental management practices. Environmental expenditures that relate to
current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate and were not
significant in 1997 and are not expected to be significant in the foreseeable
future. Coleman has established reserves, which it believes are adequate, for
environmental matters, including the investigations, remedial activities and
litigation described above.

OTHER

        GENERAL. The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions 
arising in the ordinary course of business, including environmental matters 
and product liability lawsuits that are incidental to its business. CLN 
Holdings believes the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected 
to have a material adverse effect on CLN Holdings' consolidated financial 
condition or results of operations. The Company has entered into a 
cross-indemnification agreement with Holdings pursuant to which Coleman will 
indemnify

                                     11

<PAGE>

Holdings against all liabilities related to businesses transferred by Holdings
to the Company, and Holdings will indemnify the Company against all liabilities
of Holdings other than liabilities related to the businesses transferred to the
Company.

ITEM 4.   SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

        No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the
fourth quarter of 1997.

                                    PART II

ITEM 5.   MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
          MATTERS

        All of the equity securities of CLN Holdings are owned indirectly by 
Mafco and there is no public market therefor.

        During 1997, CLN Holdings sold $732.0 million aggregate principal 
amount at maturity of Old Priority Notes in a private placement pursuant to 
Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

ITEM 6.   SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

        CLN Holdings is a holding company formed in May 1997 to hold all of 
the outstanding shares of capital stock of Coleman Worldwide. Coleman 
Worldwide is a holding company formed in March 1993 and holds 44,067,520 
shares of Coleman common stock which represented approximately 82% of the 
outstanding Coleman common stock as of March 3, 1998. Due to CLN Holdings' 
100% direct ownership of Coleman Worldwide and approximately 82% indirect 
ownership of Coleman, the Consolidated Financial Statements of CLN Holdings
include the accounts of Coleman Worldwide and its subsidiaries after 
elimination of all material intercompany accounts and transactions. Minority 
interest primarily represents the minority shareholders' proportionate share 
of the results of operations and equity of Coleman. The selected financial 
data for the years presented in the table below have been derived from the 
Consolidated Financial Statements. The selected financial data should be read 
in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes 
thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-K Annual Report.

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

     CLN Holdings and Coleman Worldwide are holding companies with no business
operations or source of income of their own. Accordingly, except as otherwise
indicated, the following discussion relates to the results of operations of the
Company. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements of CLN Holdings and the notes thereto included
elsewhere in this Form 10-K Annual Report.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 COMPARED WITH THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996

     Net revenues of $1,154.3 million in 1997 were $65.9 million or 5.4% less
than in 1996 with outdoor recreation products unchanged at $859.7 million and
hardware products decreasing $66.0 million or 18.3%. The outdoor recreation
products revenues were adversely affected by (i) a restructuring program which
eliminated certain low margin SKUs (stock keeping units), (ii) lower sales in
Japan and Korea due to weak market conditions, and (iii) a program to reduce
wholesaler inventories in Japan; however, growth in the core products outside of
Japan and Korea offset these declines. Hardware products revenues decreased due
to the Company's decision to exit the pressure washer business and lower
generator sales resulting from fewer storms on the East Coast of the United
States in the second half of 1997. Geographically, United States and Canadian
revenues decreased $24.0 million or 2.9% due to lower hardware product sales
while international revenues decreased $41.9 million or 10.6% primarily related
to lower sales in Japan and Korea. Results in the 1996 period include the
Camping Gaz operations from the date of acquisition.

     The gross margin percentage of 28.9%, excluding the impact of restructuring
and other charges which are more fully described below, increased from 27.5% in
1996. The improvement was driven by increased demand for higher margin products
and the elimination of certain low margin SKUs.

     SG&A expenses, excluding the impact of restructuring and other charges
which are more fully described below, were $249.5 million in 1997 compared to
$261.5 million in 1996, a decrease of 4.5%. The inclusion of a full twelve
months of Camping Gaz SG&A costs in the 1997 period increased SG&A expenses;
however, these increases were more than offset by benefits resulting from the
integration of Camping Gaz operations and the restructuring initiatives.

     During 1997, the Company recorded pre-tax restructuring and other charges
totaling $36.4 million of which $19.7 million was reflected in cost of sales and
$16.7 million in SG&A expenses. Tax benefits of $13.9 million associated with
these charges are reflected in income tax expense. The restructuring and other
charges consisted of (i) $15.7 million to exit various low margin products,
including pressure washers, (ii) $15.0 million to close and relocate certain
administrative and sales offices, and (iii) $5.7 million to close several
manufacturing facilities. Most of these activities were substantially complete
as of December 31, 1997, and remaining actions are expected to be completed in
1998.

     During 1996, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $66.2 million,
certain other charges of $8.0 million and related net tax benefits of $21.7
million. The 1996 pre-tax restructuring charges of $66.2 million consisted of
(i) $29.1 million to integrate the Camping Gaz and Coleman operations into a
global recreation products business, (ii) $19.0 million to exit the low end
electric pressure washer business, (iii) $14.1 million to exit a portion of the
Company's battery powered light business, and (iv) $4.0 million to settle
certain litigation with respect to the battery powered light business.

     The 1996 pre-tax restructuring charges of $66.2 million included $64.4
million related to exiting products and facilities and $1.8 million of
termination costs for 174 administrative employees, of which $40.8 million was
reflected in cost of sales and $25.4 million in SG&A expenses. The pre-tax
charges for exit costs were comprised

                                     14

<PAGE>

of (i) $41.3 million which related primarily to writing down inventory, fixed
assets, accounts receivable and certain other receivable and prepaid amounts to
estimated net realizable value, and (ii) $23.1 million of other exit costs,
including carrying costs of idle facilities, relocation costs, and costs to exit
the pressure washer business. The 1996 other pre-tax charges of $8.0 million
related primarily to certain asset write-offs. These other charges, of which
$3.2 million was reflected in cost of sales and $4.8 million in SG&A expenses,
were incurred in the Company's normal course of business, although the amounts
involved were higher than similar charges the Company had recorded in prior
periods. The provision for income taxes included $21.7 million of tax benefits
resulting from these restructuring and other charges, net of an increase in the
valuation reserve related to certain foreign deferred tax assets and other
foreign tax charges totaling $5.6 million.

     The components of the combined 1997 and 1996 restructuring and other
charges and an analysis of the amounts charged against the reserves are outlined
in the following table (dollars in millions):

</TABLE>

     The termination costs recognized in 1996 related to approximately 200
employees and the 1997 termination costs related to approximately 525 employees.
As of December 31, 1997, $11.3 million of termination costs were paid on behalf
of the approximately 700 employees who were terminated as of that date.

     The Company's interest expense was $40.9 million in 1997 compared with 
$38.7 million in 1996, an increase of $2.2 million. This increase was a 
result of the effects of higher interest rates on the Company's variable rate 
debt partially offset by the favorable effects of lower borrowings in 1997 
resulting from the Company's working capital management programs. On an 
unconsolidated basis, Coleman Worldwide had an additional $6.1 million of 
interest expense in 1997 compared with $12.1 million in 1996, a decrease of 
$6.0 million. This decrease is primarily due to the decrease in principal 
amount of LYONs outstanding due to the exchange of LYONs for cash in 1997. In 
addition, on an unconsolidated basis, CLN Holdings and Coleman Holdings had 
$43.9 million of interest expense in 1997 compared with $24.3 million in 
1996, an increase of $19.6 million. This increase reflects the issuance of 
the Escrow Notes partially offset by the redemption of the Holdings Notes on 
July 15, 1997.

     Minority interest in the 1997 period reflects the minority interests in
certain subsidiary operations acquired with the Camping Gaz business. On March
1, 1996, the Company acquired control of approximately 70% of Camping Gaz and in
early July 1996 obtained control of the remaining 30% of Camping Gaz and,
accordingly, in the 1996 period, minority interest reflects the minority
shareholders' approximate 30% proportionate share of the results of operations
of Camping Gaz for the period March through June of 1996 and also includes
interests of other minority shareholders in certain subsidiary operations
acquired with the Camping Gaz business. Minority interest in the loss of Coleman
represents the minority shareholders' proportionate share of the results of
operations of Coleman, which is reflected on CLN Holdings' consolidated
financial statements because of CLN Holdings' approximate 82% ownership of
Coleman's common stock.

     The Company recorded income tax benefits of $5.2 million in 1997 and $10.9
million in 1996, which includes the net tax benefits of $13.9 million in 1997
and $21.7 million in 1996 associated with restructuring and other charges
discussed above. Excluding the net tax benefits from the restructuring and other
charges, the

                                     15

<PAGE>

provision for income tax expense would have been $8.7 million or 28.9% of
pre-tax earnings in 1997 as compared to a provision for income tax expense of
$10.8 million or 45.0% of pre-tax earnings in 1996. This decrease is primarily
due to the impact of increased foreign tax rates on deferred tax assets and
increased foreign earnings at lower tax rates. On an unconsolidated basis,
Coleman Worldwide recorded an income tax benefit of $2.5 million in 1997 and
$3.9 million in 1996, or approximately 37% and 38% of Coleman Worldwide's
unconsolidated pre-tax loss in 1997 and 1996, respectively. In addition, on an
unconsolidated basis, CLN Holdings and Coleman Holdings recorded an income tax
benefit of $16.5 million in 1997 and $9.0 million in 1996, or approximately 35%
of CLN Holdings and Coleman Holdings' unconsolidated pre-tax loss in each year.

     During the third quarter of 1997, in connection with the redemption of
$281.3 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of Holdings Notes for
cash, Coleman Holdings recorded an extraordinary loss of $4.3 million, net of
tax benefits of $2.3 million, relating to the excess of the redemption price
over the accreted value of the Holdings Notes and the write-off of deferred
charges related to the Holdings Notes.

     During 1997, in connection with the exchange of $554.1 million aggregate
principal amount at maturity of LYONs for cash, Coleman Worldwide recorded an
extraordinary loss of $10.9 million, net of tax benefits of $7.1 million,
relating to the excess of the exchange offer price over the accreted value of
the LYONs, the write-off of deferred charges related to the LYONs exchanged and
redemption fees and expenses. During 1996, holders of LYONs with a principal
amount at maturity of $9.8 million elected to exchange such LYONs pursuant to
the terms of the LYONs indenture. In connection with these exchanges, Coleman
Worldwide delivered 74,107 shares of Coleman common stock owned by Coleman
Worldwide to the holders of the LYONs which were exchanged. Coleman Worldwide
recognized a gain of $2.7 million in connection with these exchanges which is
included in other income. Coleman Worldwide also recognized an extraordinary
loss on early extinguishment of debt as a result of the LYONs exchange in an
amount of $1.0 million ($0.6 million after tax). This extraordinary loss
represents (i) the excess fair value of the property delivered by Coleman
Worldwide to the holders of the LYONs which were exchanged over the accreted
value of the LYONs obligations at the time of the exchange, along with (ii) a
pro-rata portion of the related unamortized financing costs associated with the
LYONs issuance. In 1996, in connection with the renegotiation of its credit
agreement, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $1.1 million ($0.6
million net of tax) which represented a write-off of the related unamortized
financing costs associated with its then existing credit agreement.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED WITH THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995

     Net revenues in 1996 and 1995 were $1,220.2 million and $933.6 million,
respectively, an increase of $286.6 million, or 30.7%, with outdoor recreation
products increasing by $170.7 million or 24.8% and hardware products increasing
$115.9 million or 47.4%.

     The outdoor recreation products revenues increase included $152.5 million
of revenues associated with the Camping Gaz operations acquired in 1996 and
approximately $13.4 million of additional revenues associated with the Sierra
operations acquired in 1995. Excluding (i) the impact of the Camping Gaz and
Sierra acquisitions, (ii) the effect of a weaker yen in 1996 as compared to
1995, which reduced revenues approximately $21.1 million, and (iii) the one-time
1995 thermo-electric cooler premium promotion revenue gain of approximately
$16.6 million, outdoor recreation product revenues increased approximately $42.5
million or 6.4%. Increases in revenue were experienced in the backpack, tent and
sleeping bag businesses, primarily in international markets. In addition, the
Company successfully introduced a new line of camping accessories and expanded
its heater and light businesses. These gains were substantially offset by poor
weather conditions during the camping season in North America and the economic
downturn experienced in Japan, both of which adversely affected the demand for
the Company's camping products. The hardware products revenues increase includes
approximately $82.1 million as a result of the acquisition of CSS (then named
Seatt Corporation) in 1996. Excluding the impact of the CSS acquisition,
hardware products revenues increased approximately $33.8 million or 13.8%,
driven by increases in generator and pressure washer sales. Geographically,
United States and Canada revenues increased $111.6 million or 15.6% primarily
related to the CSS acquisition, while international revenues increased $175.0
million or 79.5% primarily related to the Camping Gaz acquisition.

                                     16

<PAGE>

     Gross margins, excluding the impact of restructuring and other charges
totaling $44.0 million which are more fully discussed below, decreased as a
percent of sales by 2.9 percentage points from 30.4% in 1995 to 27.5% in 1996.
This decrease was primarily the result of lower margins associated with the
Company's backpack business and the unfavorable effects of product mix including
significantly higher sales of pressure washers at lower gross margin percentages
and lower sales of camping products which tend to have higher gross margin
percentages than the Company's average.

     SG&A expenses, excluding $30.2 million of restructuring and other charges
as discussed more fully below, were $261.5 million in 1996 compared to $174.7
million in 1995, an increase of 49.7%. The increase in SG&A expenses primarily
reflects SG&A expenses associated with the Camping Gaz and CSS business
acquisitions of approximately $60.3 million and increased advertising and
marketing expenses of approximately $16.6 million.

     During 1996, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $66.2 million,
certain other charges of $8.0 million and related net tax benefits of $21.7
million. The pre-tax restructuring charges of $66.2 million consisted of (i)
$29.1 million to integrate the Camping Gaz and Coleman operations into a global
recreation products business, (ii) $19.0 million to exit the low end electric
pressure washer business, (iii) $14.1 million to exit a portion of the Company's
battery powered light business and (iv) $4.0 million to settle certain
litigation with respect to the battery powered light business.

     The charges to integrate the Camping Gaz and Coleman operations reflected
primarily the cost to dispose of duplicate manufacturing, distribution and
administrative facilities and the related severance cost. These actions are
substantially completed at December 31, 1997 and are expected to be fully
completed in 1998. The exiting of the battery powered light business was
completed by July 1997 and the exiting of the low end pressure washer business
was substantially completed in 1997.

     The pre-tax restructuring charges of $66.2 million included $64.4 million
related to exiting products and facilities and $1.8 million of termination costs
for 174 administrative employees, of which $40.8 million was reflected in cost
of sales and $25.4 million in SG&A expenses. The pre-tax charges for exit costs
were comprised of (i) $41.3 million which related primarily to writing down
inventory, fixed assets, accounts receivable and certain other receivable and
prepaid amounts to estimated net realizable value, and (ii) $23.1 million of
other exit costs, including carrying costs of idle facilities, relocation costs,
and costs to exit the pressure washer business. Other pre-tax charges of $8.0
million related primarily to certain asset write-offs. These other charges, of
which $3.2 million was reflected in cost of sales and $4.8 million in SG&A
expenses, were incurred in the Company's normal course of business, although the
amounts involved were higher than similar charges the Company had recorded in
prior periods. The provision for income taxes includes $21.7 million of tax
benefits resulting from these restructuring and other charges, net of an
increase in the valuation reserve related to certain foreign deferred tax assets
and other foreign tax charges totaling $5.6 million.

     The Company's interest expense was $38.7 million in 1996 compared with
$24.5 million in 1995, an increase of $14.2 million. This increase was primarily
the result of higher borrowings to fund business acquisitions and support
increased working capital. On an unconsolidated basis, Coleman Worldwide had an
additional $12.1 million of interest expense in 1996 compared with $11.4 million
in 1995, an increase of $0.7 million, or 5.8%. This increase is a result of the
effects of compounding interest related to the LYONs. In addition, Coleman
Holdings, on an unconsolidated basis, had $24.3 million of interest expense in
1996 compared with $21.9 million in 1995, an increase of $2.4 million. This
increase is a result of the effects of compounding interest related to the
Holdings Notes.

     The Company recorded an income tax benefit in 1996 of $10.9 million, which
included net tax benefits of $21.7 million associated with restructuring and
other charges discussed above. Excluding the net tax benefit from restructuring
and other charges, the provision for income taxes would have been $10.8 million
or 45.0% of pre-tax earnings, excluding restructuring and other charges, as
compared to a provision for income tax expense of $24.5 million or 37.9% of
pre-tax earnings in 1995. The increase was primarily due to losses of certain
foreign

                                     17

<PAGE>

subsidiaries for which the Company has not recognized a tax benefit and the
impact of non-deductible goodwill amortization. On an unconsolidated basis,
Coleman Worldwide recorded an income tax benefit of $3.9 million in 1996 and
$4.6 million in 1995 or approximately 38% of Coleman Worldwide's unconsolidated
pre-tax loss in each year. In addition, Coleman Holdings on an unconsolidated
basis, recorded a provision for income tax benefit of $9.0 million in 1996 and
$8.2 million in 1995 or approximately 35% of Coleman Holdings' unconsolidated
pre-tax loss in each year.

     The Company obtained control of approximately 70% of Camping Gaz on March
1, 1996 and obtained control of the remaining 30% in early July 1996.
Accordingly, the minority interest for 1996 primarily represents the minority
shareholders' approximate 30% proportionate share of the results of operations
of Camping Gaz for the period March through June of 1996 and also includes
interests of other minority shareholders in certain subsidiary operations of
Camping Gaz.

     Minority interest in the loss of Coleman represents the minority
shareholders' proportionate share of the results of operations of Coleman, which
is reflected on CLN Holdings' consolidated financial statements because of CLN
Holdings' approximate 82% ownership of Coleman's common stock.

     During the second quarter of 1996, in connection with the renegotiation of
its then existing credit agreement, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss
of $1.1 million ($0.6 million after taxes, or $0.01 per share) which represents
a write-off of the related unamortized financing costs associated with its then
existing credit agreement. During the third quarter of 1995, the Company
completed a $200.0 million private placement debt issue. In connection with the
private placement, the Company renegotiated its previous credit agreement and
recorded an extraordinary loss of $1.3 million ($0.8 million after taxes) which
represents a write-off of the related unamortized financing costs associated
with its previous credit agreement.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Operating activities of CLN Holdings and its subsidiaries provided 
(used) $69.8 million, ($5.5) million, and $9.3 million of cash during the 
years ended December 31, 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively. Improved 
management of receivables and inventories and rationalization of product 
lines during 1997 as compared to 1996 led to the improvement in cash provided 
by operating activities. Net cash used by CLN Holdings and its subsidiaries 
for investing activities was $16.2 million, $204.3 million, and $68.3 million 
for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and was 
composed primarily of the Company's capital expenditures, purchases of 
businesses, and also advances (from) to Mafco under the Coleman Worldwide tax 
sharing agreement and the terms of the LYONs indenture (the "Indenture") of 
($19.3) million, $4.1 million and $6.7 million for the years ended December 
31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The Company used $161.9 million of 
cash for business acquisitions during the year ended December 31, 1996 and an 
additional $14.3 million in 1997 related to contingent payments and 
transaction costs. The Company's capital expenditures were $27.0 million and 
$41.3 million during the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

     Net cash (used) provided by financing activities by CLN Holdings and its
subsidiaries was ($53.4) million, $210.7 million, and $64.4 million for the
years ended December 31, 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively, and consisted
primarily of increases in long-term borrowings during the years ended December
31, 1996 and 1995 and a reduction in long-term borrowings during the year ended
December 31, 1997 partially offset by the net proceeds from the issuance of the
Escrow Notes.

     As part of its strategy to improve profitability, the Company announced
several restructuring initiatives during 1997. The Company recognized 1997
pre-tax charges of $36.4 million associated with these actions. These
restructuring initiatives are expected to generate cost savings in the future
from reductions in personnel, production facilities and administrative overhead.
There can be no assurance as to the Company's success in implementing its
planned initiatives or the results therefrom, the amount of future charges, or
against any adverse impact of the Company's restructuring initiatives.

     The Company's working capital requirements are currently funded by cash 
flow from operations and domestic and foreign bank lines of credit.  In April 
1996, the Company amended its credit agreement to: a) provide a term loan of 
French Franc 385.1 million ($64.9 million at December 31, 1997 exchange 
rates), b) provide an unsecured revolving credit facility in an amount of 
$275.0 million, c) allow for the Camping Gaz acquisition and d) extend the 
maturity of the credit agreement (as amended, the "Company Credit Agreement").

     Availability under the Company Credit Agreement is reduced by any 
commercial paper borrowings outstanding. The Company Credit Agreement is 
available to the Company until April 30, 2001. At December 31, 1997, $217.4 
million would have been available for borrowings under the Company Credit 
Agreement. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of CSS 
to repay first the term loan portion of the Company Credit Agreement and use 
the remaining proceeds to repay the revolving credit borrowings, which will 
result in a dollar for dollar reduction in available revolving credit 
commitments.

     The outstanding loans under the Company Credit Agreement bear interest at
either of the following rates, as selected by the Company from time to time: (i)
the higher of the agent's base lending rate or the federal funds rate plus .50%
or (ii) the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a margin ranging from
 .25% to 2.125% based on the Company's financial performance. If there is a
default, the interest rate otherwise in effect will be increased by 2% per
annum. The Company Credit Agreement also bears an overall facility fee ranging
from .15% to .375% based on the Company's financial performance.

     The Company Credit Agreement contains various restrictive covenants
including, without limitation, requirements for the maintenance of specified
financial ratios, levels of consolidated net worth and profits, and certain
other provisions limiting the incurrence of additional debt, purchase or
redemption of the Company's common stock, issuance of preferred stock of the
Company, and also prohibits the Company from paying any dividends until on or
after January 1, 1999 and limits the amount of dividends the Company may pay
thereafter. The Company Credit Agreement also contains an event of default upon
a change of control of the Company (as defined in the Company Credit Agreement)
and other customary events of default. The consummation of the CLN Holdings
Merger will constitute a change of control under the Company Credit Agreement.
In addition, all of the shares of the Company's common stock owned by Coleman 
Worldwide are pledged to secure indebtedness of Coleman Worldwide and of its 
parent, CLN Holdings Inc.

     The Company's ability to meet its current cash operating requirements,
including projected capital expenditures, tax sharing payments and other
obligations is dependent upon a combination of cash flows from operations and
borrowings under the Company Credit Agreement and foreign lines of credit. The
Company's ability to borrow under the terms of the Company Credit Agreement is
subject to the Company's continuing requirement to meet the various restrictive
covenants, including without limitation, those described above , and the various
covenants in the Company's senior notes.

     If the Company fails to meet the various restrictive covenants of the
Company Credit Agreement, or upon a change of control as a result of the
consummation of the CLN Holdings Merger, the Company will need to seek a waiver
of such provisions, renegotiate its current Company Credit Agreement, and/or
enter into alternative financing arrangements. There is no assurance that the
Company would be able to obtain such waiver, or that terms and conditions of
such waiver or alternative financing arrangements, if any, would be as favorable
as those now contained in the Company Credit Agreement.

     Coleman financed the acquisition of the shares of Camping Gaz with the net
proceeds from (i) a private placement issuance and sale of $85.0 million
aggregate principal amount of 7.10% Senior Notes, Series A, due 2006 (the "Notes
due 2006") and (ii) a private placement issuance and sale of $75.0 million
aggregate principal amount of 7.25% Senior Notes, Series B, due 2008 (the "Notes
due 2008"). The Notes due 2006 bear interest at the rate of 7.10% per annum
payable semiannually, and the principal amount is payable in annual installments
of $12.1 million commencing June 13, 2000, with a final payment due on June 13,
2006. If there is a default, the interest rate will be the greater of (i) 9.10 %
or (ii) 2% above the prime interest rate. The Notes due 2008 bear

                                      19
<PAGE>

interest at the rate of 7.25% per annum payable semiannually, and the principal
amount is payable in annual installments of $15.0 million commencing June 13,
2004 with a final payment due on June 13, 2008. If there is a default, the
interest rate will be the greater of (i) 9.25 % or (ii) 2% above the prime
interest rate. The Notes due 2006 and the Notes due 2008 are unsecured and are
subject to various restrictive covenants, including without limitation,
requirements for the maintenance of specified financial ratios and levels of
consolidated net worth and certain other provisions limiting the incurrence of
additional debt and sale and leaseback transactions under the terms of the Note
Purchase Agreement.

     The Company's international operations are located primarily in Japan,
Europe, and Canada, which are not considered to be highly inflationary
environments. The Company uses a variety of derivative financial instruments to
manage its foreign currency and interest rate exposures. The Company does not
speculate on interest rates or foreign currency rates. Instead, it uses
derivatives when implementing its risk management strategies to reduce the
possible effects of these exposures.

     With respect to foreign currency exposures, the Company principally uses
forward and option contracts to reduce risks arising from firm commitments,
anticipated intercompany sales transactions and intercompany receivable and
payable balances. The Company generally uses interest rate swaps and interest
rate caps to fix certain of its variable rate debt. The Company manages credit
risk related to these derivative contracts through credit approvals, exposure
limits and other monitoring procedures.

     All of the shares of the Company's common stock owned by Coleman 
Worldwide are pledged to secure indebtedness of Coleman Worldwide and CLN 
Holdings. On May 20, 1997, CLN Holdings issued the Escrow Notes. Concurrently 
with the closing of the issuance of the Escrow Notes, CLN Holdings deposited 
the net proceeds from the issuance of the Escrow Notes, which were 
approximately $455.3 million, (the "Escrowed Funds"), with an escrow agent. A 
portion of the net proceeds from the issuance of the Escrow Notes was 
contributed to Coleman Holdings and used by it to redeem, on July 15, 1997, 
the Holdings Notes due 1998 (the "Holdings Notes"). Following the redemption 
of the Holdings Notes, Coleman Holdings was merged into CLN Holdings. A 
portion of the net proceeds from the issuance of the Escrow Notes was 
contributed to Coleman Worldwide and used by it to accept for exchange, $554.1 
million aggregate principal amount at maturity of LYONs. Coleman Worldwide 
plans to redeem the remaining $7.5 million aggregate principal amount at 
maturity of LYONs no later than May 27, 1998 with the remaining proceeds from 
the issuance of the Escrow Notes. The LYONs and the Escrow Notes, to which the 
Company is not a party, provide that it is an additional purchase right event 
and an event of default, respectively, under these debt instruments if, among 
other things, the amount of debt incurred by the Company exceeds certain 
limitations or if there is a change of control of Coleman Worldwide or CLN 
Holdings, as the case may be, or the Company, which would permit the holder of 
LYONs or Escrow Notes to sell such notes to the issuer of such notes. 
Consummation of the CLN Holdings Merger would be an additional purchase right 
under their debt instruments. There are expected to be sufficient funds in 
escrow from the net proceeds of the Escrow Notes to repurchase the LYONs in 
the event a holder of LYONs seeks to have such LYONs repurchased. CLN Holdings 
may be required to borrow funds to repurchase the Escrow Notes if a holder of 
Escrow Notes seeks to have such Escrow Notes repurchased.

     Coleman Worldwide is a holding company with no business operations or
source of income of its own, and its ability to meet its obligations with
respect to the LYONs and any other obligations is contingent upon distributions
from the Company, including payments under the Company tax sharing agreement,
capital contributions or loans from its direct and indirect parent companies,
other borrowings and proceeds from the disposition of the common stock of
Coleman owned by Coleman Worldwide. As the holder of approximately 82% of the
capital stock of the Company, Coleman Worldwide has the ability to cause the
Company to make distributions up to the maximum amount permitted by law, subject
to limitations in the debt instruments of the Company. However, Coleman
Worldwide currently expects that, for the foreseeable future, the net earnings
and cash flow of the Company will be retained and used in the business of the
Company and that Coleman Worldwide will not receive any distributions from the
Company other than payments under the Company's tax sharing agreement.
Furthermore, the terms of the Company Credit Agreement prohibits the Company
from paying any

                                     20

<PAGE>

dividends until on or after January 1, 1999, and limits the amount of dividends
the Company may pay thereafter. The receipt by Coleman Worldwide of tax sharing
payments from the Company will cease upon Coleman Worldwide's ownership interest
in Coleman falling below 80%, and the Indenture does not require Coleman
Worldwide to own more than a majority of the Coleman common stock. Pursuant to
the LYONs indenture agreement, at any time that the LYONs are outstanding, the
amounts that Coleman Worldwide would be required to pay to Mafco under the
Worldwide Tax Sharing Agreement, together with any remaining funds paid to
Coleman Worldwide by the Company under the tax sharing agreement between Coleman
Worldwide and the Company, may not be paid as tax sharing payments, but Coleman
Worldwide may advance such funds to Mafco as long as the aggregate amount of
such advances at any time does not exceed the issue price plus accrued OID of
the LYONs. Such advances are evidenced by noninterest bearing unsecured demand
promissory notes from Mafco in the amount of $35.4 million at December 31, 1997.
Upon redemption of the remaining LYONs, such demand notes will be cancelled.

     CLN Holdings is a holding company with no business operations or source of
income of its own. CLN Holdings' only significant asset is all of the common
stock of Coleman Worldwide, which owns approximately 82% of the outstanding
shares of Coleman common stock as of March 3, 1998, and the Escrowed Funds,
which use is generally restricted to the redemption of the remaining outstanding
LYONs. CLN Holdings' principal business operations are conducted by Coleman and
its subsidiaries, and CLN Holdings has no operations of its own. Accordingly,
CLN Holdings' only source of cash to pay its obligations with respect to the
Escrow Notes and any other obligations is expected to be distributions with
respect to ownership interest in Coleman from the net earnings and cash flow
generated by Coleman, after payment by Coleman Worldwide of amounts due on the
LYONs for so long as they remain outstanding, and certain other expense. As the
indirect holder through Coleman Worldwide of approximately 82% of the Coleman
common stock as of March 3, 1998, CLN Holdings has the ability to cause the
Company and Coleman Worldwide to make distributions up to the maximum amount
permitted by law, subject to limitations in the debt instruments of the Company
and Coleman Worldwide. However, CLN Holdings currently expects that, for the
foreseeable future, the net earnings and cash flow of the Company will be
retained and used in the business of the Company and that CLN Holdings will not
receive any distributions from the Company or Coleman Worldwide. The terms of
the Company Credit Agreement prohibit the Company from paying dividends until on
or after January 1, 1999 and thereafter restrict the Company's ability to pay
dividends or make other payments to Coleman Worldwide and CLN Holdings. In
addition, the LYONs Indenture restricts Coleman Worldwide's ability to pay
dividends and make other payments to CLN Holdings. Although Coleman Worldwide
may receive payments from the Company pursuant to the Company Tax Sharing
Agreement, Coleman Worldwide will not distribute such payments to CLN Holdings.
In addition, the LYONs Indenture requires that any such payments received from
the Company be paid to Mafco or retained by Coleman Worldwide (except under
certain limited circumstances which are unlikely to occur prior to the LYONs
Retirement).

     CLN Holdings currently anticipates that in order to pay the principal
amount at maturity of the Escrow Notes or upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, to redeem the Escrow Notes or to repurchase the Escrow Notes upon the
occurrence of a change of control, CLN Holdings will be required to adopt one or
more alternatives, such as seeking capital contributions or loans from its
affiliates, refinancing its indebtedness or selling its equity securities or the
equity securities or assets of Coleman. None of the affiliates of CLN Holdings
is required to make any capital contributions or other payments to CLN Holdings
with respect to CLN Holdings' obligations on the Escrow Notes, and, except for
the Coleman Worldwide Non-Recourse Guaranty, the obligations of CLN Holdings
with respect to the Escrow Notes are not guaranteed by any affiliate of CLN
Holdings or any other person. There can be no assurance that any of the
foregoing actions could be effected on satisfactory terms, that they would be
sufficient to enable CLN Holdings to make any payments in respect of the Escrow
Notes when required or that any of such actions would be permitted by the terms
of the Indenture, the LYONs Indenture or the debt instruments of the Company or
Coleman Worldwide then in effect. Moreover, the events that constitute a change
of control under the Indenture may also constitute events of default or
repurchase right events under certain debt instruments of CLN Holdings'
subsidiaries. Such events may permit the lenders under such debt instruments to
accelerate the debt (or, in the case of LYONs, to require Coleman Worldwide to
repurchase the LYONs) and, if the debt is not paid or repurchased, to enforce
their security interests in the shares of Coleman common stock securing the 
LYONs. Any such

                                       21

<PAGE>

enforcement may limit CLN Holdings' ability to raise cash to purchase the Escrow
Notes and may have a material adverse effect on the market price of Coleman
common stock and on the price that could be obtained for the Coleman Worldwide
capital stock and thus on the ability of the Trustee to realize value through
sales of the collateral.

     Sunbeam has informed the Company that, following the consummation of the 
CLN Holdings Merger, it plans to refinance existing revolving and term debt of 
Coleman.

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000

     Some of the Company's older computer programs were written using two digits
rather than four to represent the applicable year. As a result, those computer
programs recognize a date represented by "00" as the year 1900 rather than the
year 2000. This situation, known as the "Year 2000" issue, could cause a system
failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among
other things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or
engage in similar normal business activities.

     Based on ongoing assessments of the Company's operations, the Company has
determined it will be required to modify or replace portions of its computer
software so the computer systems will function properly with respect to dates in
the year 2000 and thereafter. The Company believes that, in most instances, with
minor modifications to existing software, the Year 2000 issue will not pose
significant operational problems for its computer systems. The Company has
identified one location with significant Year 2000 software issues. Failure to
complete a timely conversion of this location to a Year 2000 compliant system
could have a material impact on the operations of the Company; however, the
Company has begun to replace the software at this location, and such replacement
software is expected to be installed prior to December 31, 1999.

     The Company has initiated formal communications with some of its
significant suppliers and large customers to determine the extent to which the
Company's interface systems are vulnerable to those third parties' failure to
remediate their own Year 2000 issues. There can be no guarantee that the systems
of other companies on which the Company's systems rely will be timely converted
and would not have an adverse effect on the Company's systems.

     In 1996, the Company began a project to select and install a Company-wide
enterprise resource computer software system designed to improve operational
efficiency. The selected system is Year 2000 compliant and complete installation
of this software system is expected to take three years. The cost of the
purchase of the software and installation costs is expected to range from $20.0
million to $25.0 million. The Company will capitalize a significant portion of
these costs and does not believe the costs of this project will have a
significant impact on the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.

     The costs of the project and the date on which the Company believes it will
be Year 2000 compliant are based on management's best estimates, which were
derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events, including the continued
availability of certain resources, third party modification plans and other
factors. However, there can be no guarantee that these estimates will be
achieved and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated.
Specific factors that might cause such material differences include, but are not
limited to, the availability and cost of personnel trained in this area, the
ability to locate and correct all relevant computer codes, and similar
uncertainties.

SEASONALITY

     The Company's sales generally are highest in the second quarter of the year
and lowest in the fourth quarter. As a result of this seasonality, the Company
has generally incurred a loss in the fourth quarter. The Company's sales may be
affected by weather conditions. For the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and
1995, second quarter sales comprised approximately 33%, 37% and 33% of annual
sales, respectively. Consequently, the company's annual results are largely
impacted by its results during the second quarter.

                                     22

<PAGE>

INFLATION

     In general, manufacturing costs are affected by inflation and the effects
of inflation may be experienced by the Company in future periods. Management
believes, however, that such effects have not been material to the Company
during the past three years.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe
harbor" for certain forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements
contained in this Form 10-K are subject to certain risks and uncertainties.
Actual results could differ materially from current expectations. Among the
factors that could affect the Company's actual results and could cause results
to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements are (i)
unanticipated costs or delays in developing new products, (ii) a decrease in the
public's interest in camping and related activities, (iii) economic softness in
Japan, Korea, and other Asian countries, (iv) weather conditions which are
adverse to the specific businesses of the Company, (v) significant adverse
market or economic conditions which negatively affect demand for the Company's
products, (vi) disruptions or delays resulting from the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreements with Sunbeam for the acquisition of CLN
Holdings and the Company, and (vii) changes in operating philosophy following
the consummation of the CLN Holdings Merger and the Company Merger. Other
factors could also cause actual results to vary materially from the future
results covered in such forward-looking statements.

primarily by a formula based on the average of the five consecutive years of 
greatest compensation earned during the last ten years of the participant's 
service to the Company, and the number of years of service attained by the 
individual participant. Such compensation is composed primarily of regular 
base salary and contributions to qualified deferred compensation plans and 
does not include amounts paid pursuant to the Company's annual cash incentive 
compensation plans. Participants make no contributions to the Salaried 
Pension Plan.

     EXCESS BENEFIT PLAN. The Company participates in the New Coleman 
Holdings Inc. Excess Benefit Plan (the "Excess Benefit Plan") for designated 
employees who are participants in the Salaried Pension Plan and whose 
retirement income from the Salaried Pension Plan in the form of payment to be 
made under the Salaried Pension Plan exceeds the maximum permissible under 
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, as amended, and certain 
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The 
Excess Benefit Plan supplements the Salaried Pension Plan by providing 
additional retirement benefits to its participants in excess of the maximum 
amount permitted under the Salaried Pension Plan, which benefits generally 
are payable in conjunction with payments made under the Salaried Pension 
Plan. Benefits payable under the Excess Benefit Plan have been included in 
the estimated annual benefits payable listed on the table following 
discussion of the Consolidated Supplemental Retirement Plan. The Excess 
Benefit Plan was amended and restated effective January 1, 1995 to add a 
provision allowing annual cash incentive compensation plan payments to 
designated participants to be included as compensation in the formula used to 
determine benefits under the Excess Benefit Plan. Thirteen executives 
participated in this feature of the Excess Benefit Plan during 1997.

     CONSOLIDATED SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLAN. In addition to the obligation 
of the Company under the Salaried Pension Plan and the Excess Benefit Plan, 
the Company had committed to provide other supplemental retirement benefits 
solely for Mr. Hammes, including credit for additional years of service and 
certain other

                                      34

<PAGE>

formula changes.  Pursuant to an agreement entered into with Mr. Hammes in 
February 1997, discussed above, Mr. Hammes is no longer a participant in the 
Consolidated Supplemental Retirement Plan.

     The following table shows estimated annual benefits payable under the 
Salaried Pension Plan and the Excess Benefit Plan, and reflects the straight 
life benefit form of payment for employees, assumes normal retirement at age 
65, and reflects deductions for Social Security and other offset amounts:

          Benefits under the Salaried Pension Plan are payable upon normal 
retirement at age 65, and at age 55 following vested termination, disability, 
and death. A participant may elect to commence early benefit payments at any 
time after the participant's 55th birthday or may retire with 30 years of 
Vesting Service at amounts reduced from those payable upon normal retirement 
age. As of December 31, 1997, credited years of service for each of the 
individuals listed on the Summary Compensation Table are as follows: Mr. 
Levin, 8.7 years; Mr. Ramon, 4.6 years; Mr. Goldman, 4 years; Mr. Stearns, 
21.2 years; Mr. McEvoy, 3.8 years; Mr. Hammes, 3.4 years; Mr. van den Bergh, 
zero years; and Mr. Kaplan, 1.1 years. In accordance with Mr. Hammes' 
termination of employment agreement (see Employment Agreements and 
Termination of Employment Arrangements), discussed above, Mr. Hammes will be 
entitled to receive a pension of $15,110 per month commencing March 1, 1999.

          Pursuant to the Company Merger Agreement, from and after the 
effective time of the CLN Holdings Merger, Sunbeam has agreed to allow 
Company employees to participate in Sunbeam benefit plans on substantially 
the same basis as similarly situated Sunbeam employees, and has also agreed 
to cause the Company to continue its employee benefit plans for a period of 
at least six (6) months following such date. Sunbeam has also agreed to

                                  35

<PAGE>

give Company employees full credit for purposes of eligibility and vesting of 
benefits and benefit accrual for service with the Company and its affiliates 
prior to the effective time of the CLN Holdings Merger provided, however, 
that no such crediting of service results in duplication of benefits.

REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION BY THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

          The Compensation Committee is comprised entirely of directors who 
are not officers or employees of the Company.  The Compensation Committee is 
composed of Messrs. Robinson (Chairman), Drapkin and Slovin, and Ms. Jordan.  
The Compensation Committee is responsible for:

    -     Reviewing and approving the salary and annual incentive compensation 
          of the Company's executive officers;

    -     Reviewing, approving or modifying performance standards against
          which annual incentive compensation awards will be made for
          executive officers;

    -     Reviewing, approving or modifying annual incentive compensation 
          awards for executive officers;

    -     Reviewing, approving or modifying stock option awards for all 
          employees, including executive officers;

    -     Reviewing, approving or modifying supplemental benefit or 
          compensation plans which are available to designated executives;

    -     Reviewing and recommending to the Board of Directors changes to
          current executive officer benefit plans or the adoption of new
          executive compensation programs requiring shareholder approval;
          and

    -     Reviewing and acting as appropriate on any other issues relating
          to executive compensation and brought to the Compensation
          Committee by the Chairman for its consideration.

     COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY

               In 1994, the compensation philosophy for the Company was 
developed and adapted. The philosophy includes the following principles:

    -     Support the achievement of the Company's desired financial 
          performance and return to shareholders;

    -     Provide compensation that will attract and retain the required high 
          level talent; and

    -     Align executives officers' interest with the Company's success by
          linking both annual incentive compensation and long-term
          incentive compensation, in the form of stock option and/or stock
          appreciation rights awards, with the Company's success in
          achieving performance goals.

          The executive compensation philosophy for the Company, as approved 
and adopted by the Compensation Committee, provides for an overall level of 
potential compensation opportunity that, if aggressive financial goals are 
achieved and superior shareholder returns are realized, will be at a 75th 
percentile level of competitiveness with consumer products companies of 
comparable size. To determine pay level opportunities, the Compensation 
Committee consulted with outside consultants and with the Company's officers 
responsible for human resources.

          The Compensation Committee intends, over time, to set salaries in a 
manner consistent with the foregoing. Annual incentive and stock option 
opportunities are intended to be set above predicted competitive norms. 
Actual individual compensation levels may be greater or lesser than median 
competitive levels, based

                                   36

<PAGE>

upon annual and long-term Company performance. The Compensation Committee, at 
its discretion, sets executive compensation at levels which it judges are 
justified by external, internal and other circumstances.

          COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL TAX LEGISLATION

          The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 added Section 162(m) 
to the Code, which generally precludes the Company and other public companies 
from taking a tax deduction for compensation over $l million which is not 
"performance-based" and is paid, or otherwise taxable, to executives named in 
the Summary Compensation Table and employed by the Company at the end of the 
applicable tax year. The Company attempts to preserve as much deduction as 
possible without undercutting the compensation objectives set forth above. 
Each director on the Compensation Committee is an "outside director" within 
the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.

          BASE COMPENSATION

          During 1997, the base compensation of each executive officer was 
reviewed and compared to median levels of competitiveness for similarly sized 
consumer products companies. The Company has adopted the practice of base 
compensation increases for executive officers based on an annual review of 
the executive performance and to adjust compensation and to keep it 
approximately to the standard described above.

          ANNUAL CASH INCENTIVE COMPENSATION

          The Chief Executive Officer was paid a bonus based on the targets 
in the Incentive Plan, even though a certain condition to payment of the 
target bonus was not satisfied. The other named executive officers who were 
employed by Coleman at the end of the year were also paid a bonus based on 
the same criteria. During 1997, no bonus was paid to the former Chief 
Executive Officer. The bonuses were paid to recognize the substantial 
progress made in the restructuring of Coleman.

          LONG TERM INCENTIVES

          In 1997, the Compensation Committee approved option grants to the 
Chief Executive Officer of 200,000 shares on February 11, 1997, at an 
exercise price of $12.25 and 300,000 shares on April 14, 1997 at an exercise 
price of $14.00. It also approved grants totaling in the aggregate 160,000 
shares to the other named executive officers employed by the Company at the 
end of 1997. The Compensation Committee believes that these grants, which 
were primarily made in the first half of 1997, provide an appropriate link 
between the interest of executives with those of the Company's shareholders.

          OTHER BENEFITS

          The Company provides medical and retirement benefits to executive 
officers that are generally available to Company salaried employees, 
including participation in medical and dental benefit plans, a qualified 
401(k) employee savings plan and a qualified defined benefit retirement plan. 
In addition, the Company provides certain officers and key management 
employees a nonqualified benefit equalization plan which is designed to make 
up for benefits that would otherwise to lost due to various tax limitations. 
The Company's benefit plans are intended to provide a median level of 
benefits when compared to similarly sized consumer products companies. The 
Company also provides certain executive officers with certain executive 
prerequisites which may be deemed to be a personal benefit or constitute 
compensation to such executive officers, including (for example) car 
allowances and reimbursements, and club membership dues.

                                   37

          The Compensation Committee believes the executive compensation 
philosophy and programs are appropriate and serve the interest of the 
shareholders and the Company.

CUMULATIVE SHAREHOLDER RETURN PERFORMANCE GRAPH

          The graph set forth below presents a comparison of cumulative 
shareholder return for the Company's common stock for the five-year period 
December 31, 1992 through December 31, 1997, on an indexed basis, as compared 
with the S&P Midcap 400 stock index and a selected peer group of companies.

          The group of companies selected for the peer group represents a 
portfolio of companies which share certain characteristics considered 
relevant to the earnings performance and related cumulative shareholder 
return for the Company's common stock. Selection of the peer group for the 
performance line was impacted by the fact that many of the Company's direct 
competitors are privately held or are subsidiaries of much larger public 
companies. Selection criteria applied in formulating the group of 12 
companies, each of whose stock is publicly traded, required each company to 
share one or more of the following characteristics representative of the 
Company: (a) competitors with the Company in one or more of its product 
lines; (b) companies which serve mass merchandisers and their customers; (c) 
companies offering strong brand name consumer products; and (d) companies 
serving recreational products consumers.

                                    38

     The 12 companies selected as the peer group are as follows: Johnson 
Worldwide Associates, Inc.; Anthony Industries, Inc.; Huffy Corporation; 
Kellwood Company (parent of American Recreation Products, Inc.); Russell 
Corporation; Snap-on Tools Corporation; Sunbeam; Brunswick Corporation; V.F. 
Corporation (parent of JanSport, Inc.); Newell Co.; Rubbermaid Incorporated; 
and Cooper Industries, Inc.

ITEM 13.   CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

RELATIONSHIP WITH MACANDREWS & FORBES

     Ronald O. Perelman, through MacAndrews & Forbes, beneficially owns
indirectly 82% of Coleman's common stock. Due to its stock ownership, MacAndrews
& Forbes controls Coleman and is able to elect the entire board of directors. On
February 27, 1998, the CLN Holdings Merger Agreement and the Company Merger
Agreement were executed as described in further detail above. As a result of the
CLN Holdings Merger, CLN Holdings will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Sunbeam and Sunbeam will become the indirect owner of approximately 82% of the
outstanding Coleman common stock. Additionally, upon consummation of the CLN
Holdings Merger, all of the current members of Coleman's board of directors will
resign from their positions as directors, and five individuals designated by
Sunbeam will become directors of the Company.

TAX SHARING AGREEMENTS

     CLN Holdings, Coleman Worldwide and the Company are, for federal income 
tax purposes, included in the consolidated group of which Mafco is the common 
parent, and the federal taxable income and loss of CLN Holdings, Coleman 
Worldwide and the Company will be included in the consolidated federal income 
tax return filed by Mafco. CLN Holdings, Coleman Worldwide and the Company 
may also be included in certain state and local tax returns of Mafco or its 
subsidiaries. Coleman Holdings and Mafco had entered into a tax sharing 
agreement (the "Holdings Tax Sharing Agreement"), pursuant to which Coleman 
Holdings was required to pay to Mafco amounts equal to the taxes that Coleman 
Holdings would otherwise have to pay if it were to file separate returns 
including only itself (including any amounts determined to be due as a result 
of a redetermination of the tax liability of the Mafco consolidated group 
arising from an audit or otherwise). Following the Coleman Holdings Merger, 
the Holdings Tax Sharing Agreement will be terminated.

     In connection with the offering of the LYONs, Coleman Worldwide and Mafco
entered into a tax sharing agreement (the "Worldwide Tax Sharing Agreement" and
together with the Holdings Tax Sharing Agreement, the "Tax Sharing Agreements"),
pursuant to which Coleman Worldwide is required to pay to Mafco amounts equal to
the taxes that Coleman Worldwide would otherwise have to pay if it were to file
separate consolidated federal, state or local income tax returns including only
itself and its domestic subsidiaries (including any amounts

                                     41
<PAGE>

determined to be due as a result of a redetermination of the tax liability of
the Mafco consolidated group ensuing from an audit or otherwise). At any time
the LYONs are outstanding, the amounts Coleman Worldwide would be required to
pay to Mafco under the Worldwide Tax Sharing Agreement, together with any
remaining funds paid to Coleman Worldwide by the Company under the Company Tax
Sharing Agreement (as defined below), will instead be advanced by Coleman
Worldwide to Mafco as long as the aggregate amount of such advances at any time
does not exceed the Issue Price plus accrued Original Issue Discount on the
LYONs. Such advances will be evidenced by noninterest bearing unsecured demand
promissory notes from Mafco. Upon the redemption of the LYONs, such demand 
notes will be cancelled. In addition, the Company, Coleman Worldwide and
Mafco entered into a Tax Sharing Agreement with the Company (the "Company Tax
Sharing Agreement") pursuant to which the Company is required to pay to Coleman
Worldwide amounts equal to the taxes that the Company would otherwise have to
pay if it were to file separate consolidated federal, state or local income tax
returns including only itself and its domestic subsidiaries (including any
amounts determined to be due as a result of a redetermination of the tax
liability of the Mafco consolidated group ensuing from an audit or otherwise).
Under federal tax law, CLN Holdings, Coleman Worldwide and the Company will be
subject to several liability with respect to the consolidated federal income tax
liabilities of the affiliated group of which Mafco is the common parent for any
taxable period during which CLN Holdings, Coleman Worldwide or the Company or a
subsidiary of any of them is a member of such group. Mafco has agreed, however,
to indemnify CLN Holdings, Coleman Worldwide and the Company for any such
federal income tax liability (and certain state and local tax liabilities) of
Mafco or any of its subsidiaries that CLN Holdings, Coleman Worldwide or the
Company or any of their subsidiaries are actually required to pay. Because the
tax sharing payments to be made under the respective tax sharing agreements will
be determined by the amount of taxes that the Company or Coleman Worldwide, as
the case may be, would otherwise have to pay if it were to file federal, state
or local income tax returns, including only itself and, in the case of Coleman
Worldwide and the Company, its domestic subsidiaries, the tax sharing agreements
will not increase the taxes payable by CLN Holdings if CLN Holdings were to file
separate returns for itself, or by the Company or Coleman Worldwide . Mafco may
benefit, however, to the extent that Mafco can offset the taxable income
generated by CLN Holdings' domestic subsidiaries (including Coleman Worldwide
and the Company) against losses and tax credits generated by Mafco and its other
subsidiaries. Following the consummation of the CLN Holdings Merger, Coleman
will no longer be included in the Mafco consolidated tax group. The Tax Sharing
Agreements will be terminated on the date of the CLN Holdings Merger. The CLN
Holdings Merger Agreement provides for certain tax indemnities and tax sharing
payments with respect to Mafco, Coleman and their respective affiliates.

CROSS-INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

         Coleman and Holdings are parties to a cross-indemnification agreement
(the "Cross-Indemnification Agreement"), pursuant to which Coleman has agreed to
indemnify Holdings against all liabilities related to the outdoor products
business transferred to Coleman by Holdings, and Holdings has agreed to
indemnify Coleman and its immediate corporate parent against all liabilities of
Holdings other than liabilities related to the outdoor products business
transferred by Holdings to Coleman. The liabilities that Coleman will indemnify
Holdings against include (i) asserted and potential product liability claims
arising out of products manufactured or sold by the outdoor products business,
and (ii) asserted and potential environmental claims and liabilities related to
facilities currently or formerly owned or used by the outdoor products business.

INSURANCE PROGRAMS

         Coleman is insured under policies maintained by MacAndrews & Forbes or
its affiliates, including health and life insurance, workers compensation, and
liability insurance. The Company's expense represents its expected costs for
self-insured retentions and premiums for excess coverage insurance. For 1997,
such expense, including the Company's allocable share of premiums for such
insurance, was approximately $13.3 million. Management believes that the terms
for such insurance are at least as favorable as terms that could be obtained by
the Company were it separately insured.



                                         42

SERVICES PROVIDED BY OTHER AFFILIATES

         From time to time, Coleman purchases from affiliates, at negotiated
rates, specialized accounting and other services. Coleman also provides, at
negotiated rates, specialized accounting services and other services to an
affiliate. The net expense for such services was approximately $394,000 during
1997. Coleman believes that the terms of such arrangements are at least as
favorable to Coleman as those it could have negotiated with nonaffiliated
parties. In addition, certain employees of the Company have been paid by
MacAndrews & Forbes or other affiliates of the Company, and the Company
reimburses such affiliates for the compensation expense for such employees.

PURCHASE OF INACTIVE SUBSIDIARIES

         During the first quarter of 1997, Coleman purchased an inactive
subsidiary from an affiliate for approximately $1.0 million, plus a portion of
certain tax benefits to the extent such benefits are realized by Coleman. During
the fourth quarter of 1997, Coleman purchased an inactive subsidiary from an
affiliate for which the Company agreed to pay 50% of the tax benefits realized
by Coleman when and if such benefits are realized. Coleman expects to realize
certain tax benefits from the tax losses of such subsidiaries.

OFFICE LEASE

         Coleman subleases office space in New York City from an affiliate. The
rent paid by Coleman represents the allocable portion, based on the space
leased, of the rent paid by the affiliate to its third party landlord. The
expense for such rent during 1997 was approximately $158,000. Coleman believes
that the terms of the sublease are at least as favorable to Coleman as those it
could have negotiated with nonaffiliated parties.

PENSION PLANS

         Holdings maintains pension and other retirement plans in various forms
covering employees of Coleman who meet eligibility requirements. Holdings also
has an unfunded excess benefit plan covering certain of Coleman's U.S. employees
whose benefits under the plans described above are limited by provisions of the
Code. Coleman pays to Holdings it allocable costs of maintaining such plans for
Coleman's employees. As part of the consummation of the CLN Holdings Merger,
such pension and other benefits plans will be assigned and assumed by Coleman.

OTHER ARRANGEMENTS

         At the beginning of 1995, Mr. McEvoy, an Executive Vice President of
Coleman, had a noninterest-bearing loan from Coleman in the amount of $63,333.
At the end of 1997, the principal balance of the loan was $0.

         During 1997, Coleman purchased licensing services from an affiliate,
for which it paid approximately $650,000.

         During 1997, Coleman sold products to an affiliate, for which it
received approximately $900,000.

         During 1997, Coleman used an airplane owned by a corporation of which a
director of Coleman is a stockholder, for which Coleman paid approximately
$158,000.

         During 1997, a subsidiary of Coleman paid approximately $254,000 for
warehouse space leased from a real estate partnership in which Mr. Goldman, an
Executive Vice President of Coleman, and three other immediate family members of
Mr. Goldman's are partners. A manufacturing business owned by Mr. Goldman's
father contracted with Coleman's subsidiary for the manufacture of goods sold to
the subsidiary, for which the subsidiary paid approximately $2.6 million during
1997. Pursuant to the agreement by which Coleman acquired

                                    43

<PAGE>


the Eastpak business, Mr. Goldman is entitled to certain additional payments
from Coleman upon Eastpak achieving certain operating targets. In accordance
with such agreement, a final additional payment of $12.0 million was paid to Mr.
Goldman for 1997 financial performance.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



The Board of Directors and Stockholder
CLN Holdings Inc.


        We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CLN 
Holdings Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the 
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholder's deficit, and 
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997. 
Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index 
at Item 14(a). These financial statements are the responsibility of the 
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 
financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

        We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted 
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the 
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test 
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial 
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used 
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the 
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide 
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

        In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to 
above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial 
position of CLN Holdings Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1997 and 1996, 
and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for 
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997, in conformity 
with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the 
related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the 
basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material 
respects, the information set forth therein.

1.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     BACKGROUND:

        CLN Holdings Inc. (formerly known as Coleman Escrow Corp. ("CLN 
Holdings")), is a holding company formed in May 1997 in connection with the 
offering of Senior Secured First Priority Discount Notes due 2001 (the "Old 
First Priority Notes") and Senior Secured Second Priority Discount Notes due 
2001 ( the "Old Second Priority Notes" and together with the Old First 
Priority Notes, the "Old Escrow Notes") to hold all of the outstanding shares 
of capital stock of Coleman Holdings Inc. ("Coleman Holdings"). Coleman 
Holdings was a holding company formed in July 1993 in connection with the 
offering of Senior Secured Discount Notes due 1998 (the "Holdings Notes") to 
hold all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Coleman Worldwide 
Corporation ("Coleman Worldwide"). On July 15, 1997, Coleman Holdings was 
merged into CLN Holdings. Coleman Worldwide is a holding company formed in 
March 1993 in connection with the offering of Liquid Yield Option-TM- Notes due 
2013 (the "LYONs"-TM-). Coleman Worldwide also holds 44,067,520 shares of the 
common stock of The Coleman Company, Inc. ("Coleman" or the "Company") which 
represents approximately 82% of the outstanding Coleman common stock as of 
December 31, 1997. CLN Holdings and Coleman Worldwide are holding companies 
with no business operations of their own. In connection with an initial 
public offering in March 1992, Coleman was formed in December 1991 to succeed to
the assets and liabilities of the outdoor products business of New Coleman 
Holdings Inc. ("Holdings") an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Mafco 
Holdings Inc. ("Mafco"). Holdings (then named The Coleman Company, Inc.) was 
acquired in 1989 by MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc. ("MacAndrews Holdings", 
and together with Mafco, "MacAndrews & Forbes"), a corporation wholly owned 
through Mafco by Ronald O. Perelman. Coleman is a subsidiary of Coleman 
Worldwide Corporation which is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of 
Holdings.

     PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION:

        The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CLN 
Holdings and its subsidiaries after elimination of all material intercompany 
accounts and transactions.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:

        All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less 
at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company's 
cash equivalents consist primarily of investments in money market funds and 
commercial paper. The Company's cash equivalents are generally held until 
maturity and are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

     INVENTORIES:

        Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is 
determined by the first-in, first-out method.

     PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT:

        Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated on 
a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of such assets as 
follows: land improvements, 5 to 25 years; buildings and building 
improvements, 7 to 45 years; and machinery and equipment, 3 to 15 years. 
Leasehold improvements are amortized over their estimated useful lives or the 
terms of the leases, whichever is shorter. Repairs and


                                     F-7

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                     (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)


maintenance are charged to operations as incurred, and significant 
expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized.

     INTANGIBLE ASSETS:

        Intangible assets primarily represent goodwill which is being 
amortized on a straight-line basis over periods not in excess of 40 years. 
The carrying amount of goodwill is reviewed if facts and circumstances 
suggest it may be impaired. If this review indicates goodwill will not be 
recoverable over the remaining amortization period, as determined based on 
the estimated undiscounted cash flows of the entity acquired, the carrying 
amount of the goodwill is reduced to estimated fair value based on market 
value or discounted cash flows, as appropriate. Accumulated amortization 
aggregated $48,148 and $39,520 at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

     REVENUE RECOGNITION:

        The Company recognizes revenues at the time title passes to the 
customer. Net revenues comprise gross revenues less provisions for estimated 
customer returns and allowances.

     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT:

        Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred. The 
amounts charged against operations for the years ended December 31, 1997, 
1996 and 1995 were $11,871, $11,082, and $6,548, respectively.

     ADVERTISING AND PROMOTION EXPENSE:

        Production costs of future media advertising are deferred until the 
advertising occurs. All other advertising and promotion costs are expensed 
when incurred. The amounts charged against operations for the years ended 
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 were $53,408, $58,823, and $37,544, 
respectively.

     INSURANCE PROGRAMS:

        The Company obtains insurance coverage for catastrophic exposures as 
well as those risks required to be insured by law or contract. It is the 
policy of the Company to retain a significant portion of certain losses 
related primarily to workers' compensation, employee health benefits, 
physical loss and property, and product and vehicle liability. Provisions for 
losses expected under these programs are recorded based upon the Company's 
estimates of the aggregate liability for claims incurred.

     FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION:

        Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are generally translated 
into United States dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at the balance 
sheet date. Income and expense items are generally translated at the weighted 
average exchange rates prevailing during each period presented. Gains and 
losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the 
results of operations. Gains and losses resulting from translation of 
financial statements of foreign subsidiaries and branches operating in 
non-highly inflationary economies are recorded as a component of 
stockholder's equity. Foreign subsidiaries and branches operating in highly 
inflationary economies translate nonmonetary assets and liabilities at 
historical rates and include translation adjustments in the results of 
operations.

                      (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)

     DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

        The Company uses derivative financial instruments to reduce interest 
rate and foreign exchange exposures. The Company maintains a control 
environment which includes policies and procedures for risk assessment and 
for the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument 
activities. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial 
instruments for trading purposes.

        Amounts to be received or paid under interest rate swap and cap 
contracts designated as hedges are recognized over the life of the contracts 
as adjustments to interest expense. Gains and losses on terminations of 
interest rate swap and cap contracts designated as hedges are deferred and 
amortized as adjustments to interest expense over the remaining life of the 
terminated contracts. Unrealized gains and losses on outstanding interest 
rate contracts designated as hedges are not recognized.

        Foreign currency forward contracts are marked to market and gains and 
losses on foreign currency forward contracts to hedge firm foreign currency 
commitments are deferred and accounted for as part of the related foreign 
currency transaction. Gains and losses on all other forward contracts to 
hedge third-party and intercompany transactions are recorded in operations as 
foreign exchange gains and losses. Gains and losses on purchased foreign 
currency option contracts are deferred and recognized as adjustments to cost 
of sales upon the sale of the related inventory to the third-party customers.

     CREDIT RISK:

        Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to 
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade receivables and 
derivative financial instruments. Credit risk on trade receivables is 
minimized as a result of the large and diversified nature of the Company's 
worldwide customer base. Although the Company has one significant customer 
(See Note 15), there have been no credit losses related to this customer. 
With respect to its derivative contracts, the Company is also subject to 
credit risk of non-performance by counterparties and its maximum potential 
loss may exceed the amount recognized in the financial statements. The 
Company controls its exposure to credit risk through credit approvals, credit 
limits and monitoring procedures. Collateral is generally not required for 
the Company's financial instruments.

     FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

        The following methods and assumptions were used by CLN Holdings in 
estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

              CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: The carrying amount reported in the
              balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair
              value.

              LONG- AND SHORT-TERM DEBT: The carrying amounts of CLN Holdings'
              borrowings under its foreign bank lines of credit, revolving
              credit agreement and other variable rate debt approximate their
              fair value. The fair value of the Company's senior notes issues
              (see Note 9) are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis
              based on the Company's estimated current borrowing rate for
              similar types of borrowing arrangements. The fair value of the

             FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS: The fair values of CLN
             Holdings' foreign currency contracts are estimated based on quoted
             market prices of comparable contracts, adjusted through
             interpolation where necessary for maturity differences.

         The carrying amounts and fair values of CLN Holdings' financial

     STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION:

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, 
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," encourages, but does not require 
companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation 
plans at fair value. The Company has chosen to account for stock-based 
compensation plans using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting 
Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to 
Employees," and related Interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for 
stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price 
of Coleman's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must 
pay to acquire the stock.

     RECLASSIFICATIONS:

         Certain prior year amounts in the financial statements have been 
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

     USE OF ESTIMATES:

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and 
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those 
estimates.

     RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS:

         In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") 
issued SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income".  SFAS No. 130 
establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and 
its components in the financial statements.  SFAS No. 130 is effective for 
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.  Reclassification of 
financial statements for earlier periods provided for comparative purposes is 
required.

                        (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)

         In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about 
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information". SFAS No. 131 establishes 
standards for the way public business enterprises report information about 
operating segments in annual financial statements and requires those 
enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim 
financial reports. It also establishes standards for related disclosures 
about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. SFAS No. 
131 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after 
December 15, 1997. Financial statement disclosures for prior periods are 
required to be restated.

         In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132, "Employers' 
Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits". SFAS No. 132 
revises employers' disclosures about pension and other postretirement 
benefits to the extent practicable. It also requires additional information 
on changes in the benefit obligations and fair value of plan assets and 
eliminates certain other disclosures. SFAS No. 132 is effective for financial 
statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Financial 
statement disclosures for prior periods are required to be restated.

         CLN Holdings has not yet determined the impact of adoption of these 
standards; however, the adoption of these standards will have no impact on 
CLN Holdings' consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash 
flows.

2.   ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

     On November 2, 1994, the Company purchased substantially all the assets 
of Eastpak, Inc. and all the capital stock of M.G. Industries, Inc. 
(collectively, "Eastpak"), a leading designer, manufacturer and distributor 
of branded daypacks, sports bags and related products. The Company also 
entered into an agreement with the predecessor owner of Eastpak to make 
additional payments based upon the achievement of certain annual sales levels 
of Eastpak products and other products substantially similar to the Eastpak 
products during the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997. A total of 
$23,000 was earned by the predecessor owner of Eastpak under the terms of 
this agreement. This amount has been recorded as additional goodwill.

     During 1995, the Company purchased all of the outstanding shares of 
capital stock of Sierra Corporation of Fort Smith, Inc., a manufacturer of 
portable outdoor and recreational folding furniture and accessories, and 
substantially all of the assets of Active Technologies, Inc. ("ATI"), a 
manufacturer of technologically advanced lightweight generators and battery 
charging equipment. The aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions was 
$19,516 including fees and expenses. These acquisitions were accounted for 
using the purchase method of accounting. The purchase price and expenses 
associated with these acquisitions exceeded the fair value of net assets 
acquired by $11,186 and the excess has been assigned to goodwill and is being 
amortized over 20 to 30 years on the straight-line method. In connection with 
the ATI purchase, the Company may also be required to make payments to the 
predecessor owner of ATI of up to $18,750 based on the Company's sales of ATI 
related products and royalties received by the Company for licensing 
arrangements related to ATI patents. As of December 31, 1997, the amounts 
recorded, as additional goodwill, under the terms of this agreement have been 
immaterial. The results of operations of these companies on a pro forma basis 
as if their acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of 1995 individually 
and in the aggregate were not significant to CLN Holdings.

     On January 2, 1996, the Company purchased substantially all the assets 
and assumed certain liabilities of Seatt Corporation ("Seatt"), a leading 
designer, manufacturer and distributor of safety and security related 
electronic products for residential and commercial applications. The Seatt 
acquisition, which was accounted for under the purchase method, was completed 
for approximately $65,300 including fees and expenses. The results

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                       (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)

of operations of Seatt have been included in the consolidated financial 
statements from the date of acquisition. In connection with the purchase 
price allocation of the Seatt acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of 
approximately $38,800. The Company is amortizing this amount over 40 years on 
the straight-line method.

     On February 18, 1998, the Company announced an agreement was signed for 
the sale of Coleman Safety & Security Products, Inc., the successor to Seatt, 
to Ranco Incorporated of Delaware, a U.S. subsidiary of Siebe plc, a United 
Kingdom diversified engineering group. The sale price is approximately 
$105,000 and is subject to adjustment upon closing which is expected to occur 
by the end of March 1998. Net assets of Coleman Safety & Security Products, 
Inc. at December 31, 1997 were approximately $73,000.

     On February 28, 1996, the Company purchased approximately 70% of the 
outstanding shares of Application des Gaz, S.A. ("ADG" or "Camping Gaz"), a 
leading manufacturer and distributor of camping appliances in Europe. The 
Company completed the necessary steps to acquire the remaining 30% of the 
outstanding shares during the second quarter of 1996. The cost of acquiring 
all the shares of ADG was approximately $100,000 including fees and expenses.

     The acquisition of Camping Gaz was accounted for under the purchase 
method. In connection with the final allocation of purchase price to the fair 
values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the Company recorded 
goodwill of approximately $78,900, which is being amortized over 40 years on 
the straight-line method. At acquisition, the Company recognized liabilities 
in the amount of $21,898 representing severance and other termination 
benefits for certain production and administrative employees of Camping Gaz. 
As of December 31, 1997, the Company had paid termination costs of 
approximately $13,350 and anticipates all remaining termination costs will be 
paid during 1998.

     The Company has included the results of operations of Camping Gaz in the 
consolidated financial statements from March 1, 1996, the date on which the 
Company obtained control of Camping Gaz, and has recognized minority interest 
related to the remaining shares for the period March 1, 1996 through June 30, 
1996.

     The following summarized, unaudited pro forma results of operations of 
CLN Holdings for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 assume the 
acquisition of Seatt and the acquisition of all the outstanding shares of 
Camping Gaz occurred as of the beginning of the respective periods. The pro 
forma results include certain adjustments, primarily reflecting increased 
amortization and interest expense and a lower income tax provision, and are 
not necessarily indicative of what the results of operations would have been 
had the Seatt and Camping Gaz acquisitions occurred at the beginning of the 
respective periods. Moreover, the pro forma information is not intended to be 
indicative of future results of operations.

3.   RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

     During 1997, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $32,791 and 
certain other charges of $3,628, (collectively, the "1997 Restructuring 
Charges") and related tax benefits of $13,918. The Company reflected $19,673 
of the 1997 Restructuring Charges in cost of sales and reflected $16,746 in 
selling, general and

                             (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)

administrative ("SG&A") expenses. The 1997 Restructuring Charges of $36,419 
consisted of (i) $15,735 to exit various low margin products, including 
pressure washers, (ii) $14,943 to close and relocate certain administrative 
and sales offices, and (iii) $5,741 to close several manufacturing 
facilities. Most of these activities were substantially complete as of 
December 31, 1997, and remaining actions are expected to be completed in 1998.

     During 1996, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $66,202 and 
certain other charges of $7,998 (collectively, the "1996 Restructuring 
Charges") and related net tax benefits of $21,684. The Company reflected 
$44,005 of the 1996 Restructuring Charges in cost of sales and $30,195 in 
SG&A. The pre-tax restructuring charges of $66,202 consisted of (i) $29,067 
to integrate Camping Gaz and Coleman operations into a global recreation 
products business, (ii) $19,000 to exit the low end electric pressure washer 
business, (iii) $14,135 to exit a portion of the Company's battery powered 
light business and (iv) $4,000 to settle certain litigation with respect to 
the battery-powered light business. The charges to integrate the Camping Gaz 
and Coleman operations reflect primarily the cost to dispose of duplicate 
manufacturing, distribution and administrative facilities and the related 
severance costs, which actions were substantially completed in 1997 and are 
expected to be fully completed in 1998. The low end pressure washer and 
battery powered light businesses were exited by discontinuing the 
manufacturing and distribution of these products in 1997. The other pre-tax 
charges of $7,998 related primarily to certain asset write-offs. These 
charges were incurred in the Company's normal course of business, although 
the amounts involved were higher than similar charges the Company had 
recorded in prior years. The provision for income taxes included $21,684 of 
tax benefits resulting from these restructuring and other charges, net of an 
increase in the valuation reserve related to certain foreign deferred tax 
assets and other foreign tax charges totaling $5,595.

     The components of the combined 1997 Restructuring Charges and 1996 
Restructuring Charges and an analysis of the amounts charged against the 
reserve are outlined in the following table:

     The termination costs recognized in 1996 related to approximately 200 
employees, and the 1997 termination costs related to approximately 525 
employees. As of December 31, 1997, $11,362 of termination costs were paid on 
behalf of the approximately 700 employees who were terminated as of that date.

     During 1995, the Company recognized an asset impairment charge of 
$12,289 related to its Brazilian operations. The Brazilian operations had not 
performed to the Company's expectations since acquisition of this business in 
April of 1994, and in the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company initiated 
actions to reduce the operating losses in Brazil. These actions included 
replacing management, increasing prices, downsizing the

manufacturing operations and reducing SG&A and other expenses. Because of 
these actions, the Company performed an impairment review and concluded 
recognition of an asset impairment charge was appropriate. The basis of the 
fair values used in the computation of the charge were appraisals for 
property and equipment and estimated discounted cash flows for goodwill. The 
charge has been included in the statement of operations under the caption 
"Asset Impairment Charge".

   (c) On June 13, 1996, the Company completed a private placement issuance and

       credit facility line (the "Credit Facility"), c) allow for the Camping
       Gaz acquisition and d) extend the maturity of the credit agreement (as
       amended, the "Company Credit Agreement"). In connection with the Company
       recording the restructuring and other charges as discussed in Note 3 and

       ("LIBOR") plus a margin ranging from .25% to 2.125% based on the
       Company's financial performance. If there is a default, the interest rate
       otherwise in effect will be increased by 2% per annum. The Company Credit
       Agreement also bears an overall facility fee ranging from .15% to .375%
       based on the Company's financial performance.

                         (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)

       In addition, the Company Credit Agreement provides, subject to certain
       exceptions, for the net cash proceeds from disposition of assets other
       than in the ordinary course of business, to be used to prepay any
       outstanding Term Loan balances with any remaining excess net cash
       proceeds to be applied to outstanding borrowings under the Credit
       Facility with a corresponding reduction in the overall amount of the
       Credit Facility line.

       The Company Credit Agreement contains various restrictive covenants
       including, without limitation, requirements for the maintenance of
       specified financial ratios, levels of consolidated net worth and profits,
       and certain other provisions limiting the incurrence of additional debt,
       purchase or redemption of the Company's common stock, issuance of
       preferred stock of the Company, and also prohibits the Company from
       paying any dividends until on or after January 1, 1999 and limits the
       amount of dividends the Company may pay thereafter. The Company Credit
       Agreement also contains an event of default upon a change of control of
       the Company (as defined in the Company Credit Agreement) and other
       customary events of default. In addition, substantially all of the shares
       of the Company's common stock owned by Coleman Worldwide are pledged to
       secure indebtedness of Coleman Worldwide and of its parent, CLN Holdings
       Inc. The indentures governing this indebtedness contain various covenants
       including a covenant placing certain limitations on the Company's
       indebtedness.

   (e) On May 20, 1997, CLN Holdings issued approximately $600,475 in principal
       amount at maturity of Old First Priority Notes and approximately $131,560
       in principal amount at maturity of Old Second Priority Notes resulting in
       aggregate net proceeds of approximately $455,257 in a private placement
       offering. The Old First Priority Notes and Old Second Priority Notes were
       issued at a discount from their principal amount at maturity to yield
       11 1/8% and 12 7/8%, respectively, per annum calculated from May 20,
       1997. Subsequent to the private placement offering, a registration
       statement on Form S-1 was filed to exchange the Old First Priority Notes
       for Senior Secured First Priority Discount Exchange Notes due 2001 (the
       "First Priority Notes") and to exchange the Old Second Priority Notes for
       Senior Secured Second Priority Discount Exchange Notes due 2001 (the
       "Second Priority Notes" and together with the First Priority Notes, the
       "Escrow Notes"). The indenture governing the Escrow Notes (the
       "Indenture") requires, subject to certain exceptions, that the retirement
       of the remaining outstanding LYONs be consummated no later than June 10,
       1998. The Indenture requires CLN Holdings to hold, directly or
       indirectly, a majority of the voting power of the Company at all times,
       unless and until CLN Holdings exercises its right to substitute U.S.
       Government obligations for all of the pledged collateral. The Indenture,
       to which Coleman is not a party, also contains certain covenants that,
       among other things, generally prohibit the incurrence of additional debt
       by CLN Holdings and the issuance of additional debt and the issuance of
       preferred stock by Coleman Worldwide, and limit (i) the incurrence of
       additional debt and the issuance of preferred stock by the Company, (ii)
       the payment of dividends on the capital stock of CLN Holdings and its
       subsidiaries and the redemption or repurchase of the capital stock of CLN
       Holdings, (iii) the sale of assets and subsidiary stock, (iv)
       transactions with affiliates, (v) the creation of liens on the assets of
       CLN Holdings and Coleman Worldwide, and (vi) consolidations, mergers and
       transfers of all or substantially all of CLN Holdings' assets. The
       foregoing limitations and prohibitions, however, are subject to a number
       of qualifications. The Escrow Notes also contain customary events of
       defaults and a put right by the holders at a price specified in the
       Indenture in the event of a change of control of CLN Holdings (as defined
       in the Indenture).

       Approximately $262,194 of the net proceeds of the Escrow Notes were
       contributed to Coleman Holdings, then a subsidiary of CLN Holdings, and
       used by it to redeem, on July 15, 1997, the Discount Notes (as defined
       below). Coleman Holdings recorded an extraordinary loss of $4,300, net of
       tax benefits of $2,315,

       relating to the excess of the redemption price over the accreted value of
       the Discount Notes and the write-off of deferred charges related to the
       Discount Notes. Approximately $191,278 of the net proceeds of the Escrow
       Notes were contributed to Coleman Worldwide and used by it to accept for
       exchange, $554,053 aggregate principal amount at maturity of LYONs,
       including redemption fees and expenses. Coleman Worldwide recorded an
       extraordinary loss of $10,939, net of tax benefits of $7,076, relating to
       the excess of the exchange offer price over the accreted value of the
       LYONs, the write-off of deferred charges related to the LYONs exchanged
       and redemption fees and expenses. The $7,500 principal amount at maturity
       of LYONs which remain outstanding are secured by a pledge of 7,692,854
       shares of Coleman common stock owned by Coleman Worldwide. The Escrow
       Notes are secured by a pledge of all the shares of common stock of
       Coleman Worldwide and guaranteed pursuant to a non-recourse guaranty of
       Coleman Worldwide (the "Guaranty"), which Guaranty is currently secured
       by a pledge of 36,374,666 shares of Company common stock and will be
       secured by the shares currently securing the LYONs upon their redemption.

   (f) On May 27, 1993, Coleman Worldwide issued and sold $500,000 principal
       amount at maturity of LYONs in an underwritten public offering. On June
       7, 1993, an additional $75,000 principal amount at maturity of LYONs was
       sold upon exercise of the underwriter's overallotment option. During
       1997, Coleman Worldwide redeemed $554,053 principal amount at maturity of
       LYONs as described above. The $7,500 principal amount at maturity of
       LYONs which remain outstanding are secured by a pledge of 7,692,854
       shares of Coleman common stock owned by Coleman Worldwide. There are no
       periodic payments of interest on the LYONs. The aggregate principal
       amount of the LYONs represents a yield to maturity of 7.25% per annum
       (computed on a semi-annual bond equivalent basis) calculated from May 27,
       1993. Coleman Worldwide plans to redeem the remaining $7,500 aggregate
       principal amount at maturity of LYONs no later than May 27, 1998 with the
       remaining proceeds from the issuance of the Escrow Notes which are being
       held in escrow. The LYONs, to which the Company is not a party, provide
       that it is an Additional Purchase Right Event (as defined below) if,
       among other things, the amount of debt incurred by the Company exceeds
       certain limitations. The Indenture governing the LYONs, to which the
       Company is not a party, provides the holders of LYONs with the option to
       require Coleman Worldwide to purchase the LYONs at a price specified in
       the Indenture after the occurrence of certain events ("Additional
       Purchase Right Events"). Additional Purchase Right Events occur, among
       other things, upon the Company's Consolidated Debt Ratio (as defined)
       exceeding 0.75 to 1.0 or the Consolidated Net Worth (as defined) of
       Coleman Worldwide as of the end of any fiscal quarter being less than a
       specified amount which is $70,000 at December 31, 1997.

   (g) On July 22, 1993, Coleman Holdings issued and sold $281,281 principal
       amount at maturity of Old Notes in a private placement offering.
       Subsequent to the private placement offering, a registration statement on
       Form S-1 was filed to exchange the Old Notes for Series B Senior Secured
       Discount Notes (the "Discount Notes"). During 1997, Coleman Holdings
       redeemed the Discount Notes as described above.

     The aggregate scheduled amounts of long-term debt maturities in the years
1998 through 2002 are $3,026, $78, $12,207 $632,376, and $12,159, respectively.

10.  DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The Company periodically enters into a variety of foreign currency exchange
contracts to reduce its foreign currency exposure resulting primarily from firm
commitments, intercompany foreign sales transactions expected to occur within
the next twelve months, and intercompany accounts receivable and payable.

     At December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the Company did not have any
outstanding foreign currency exchange contracts related to firm commitments.

     During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company elected to adopt the
provisions of the Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 95-2, "Determination of
What Constitutes a Firm Commitment for Foreign Currency Transactions Not
Involving a Third Party" ("EITF 95-2") which narrowed the scope of intercompany
foreign currency commitments eligible to be hedged for financial reporting
purposes. As a result of this change, the Company increased net income by $3,796
in the fourth quarter of 1995. Prior to the adoption of EITF 95-2, the gains and
losses associated with these contracts were accounted for under the deferral
method. At December 31, 1997, the Company did not have any outstanding foreign
currency forward contracts related to intercompany foreign sales transactions.
At December 31, 1996, the Company had forward exchange contracts to sell $8,500
in Canadian dollars maturing on February 28, 1997, for which the Company has
recognized a net gain of $40 as a component of cost of sales.

     At December 31, 1997, the Company did not have any outstanding option
contracts. At December 31, 1996, the Company had outstanding option contracts
for the sale of Japanese yen at fixed exchange rates totaling $20,038 for
specified periods of time which expired during 1997. Net unrealized gains
deferred at December 31, 1996 were $653.

     With respect to intercompany accounts receivable and payable, at December
31, 1997, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts to sell $1,580 in
foreign currencies, which contracts matured in February 1998, and had deferred a
net gain of $128. At December 31, 1996, the Company had foreign currency forward
contracts to sell $26,623 and to buy $3,898 in foreign currencies, which
contracts matured at various dates in 1997, and had deferred a net gain of $185.

     At December 31, 1997, $25,000 of the Company's outstanding long-term debt
was subject to an interest rate swap agreement and $25,000 of the Company's
outstanding long-term debt was subject to an interest rate cap. Under the
interest rate swap agreement, the Company pays the counterparty interest at a
fixed rate of 6.115%, and the counterparty pays the Company interest at a
variable rate equal to the three month LIBOR for a seven-year period commencing
January 2, 1996. The agreement is with a major financial institution which is
expected to fully perform under the terms of the agreement, thereby mitigating
the credit risk from the transaction. The interest rate cap agreement entitles
the Company to receive from a major financial institution the amount, if any, by
which the Company's interest payments on $25,000 of its variable rate debt
exceed 7.35%. The $509 premium paid for this interest rate cap agreement is
included in other assets and was amortized to interest expense over the
three-year term of the cap, which commenced January 3, 1995.

11.  INCOME TAXES

     CLN Holdings is included in the consolidated federal and certain
consolidated state income tax returns of Mafco and/or its affiliates. CLN
Holdings and Mafco and subsidiaries provide taxes as if they were a separate
taxpayer. CLN Holdings will pay to Mafco amounts equal to the taxes that CLN
Holdings would otherwise have

<PAGE>

                        CLN HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                         (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)

to pay if it were to file separate tax returns for itself. To the extent that
CLN Holdings is entitled to a tax benefit from Mafco as a result of its tax
losses, such amounts are recorded as a reduction in the provision for income
taxes and a distribution to its parent. During 1997 and 1996, respectively, CLN
Holdings recorded a benefit of $18,769 and $9,013 for income taxes, and similar
amounts were recorded as distributions to its parent. Coleman Worldwide and
Mafco are parties to a tax sharing agreement (the "Tax Sharing Agreement"),
pursuant to which Coleman Worldwide is required to pay to Mafco amounts equal to
the taxes Coleman Worldwide would otherwise have to pay if it were to file
separate consolidated federal, state or local income tax returns including only
itself and its domestic subsidiaries. Pursuant to the LYONs indenture agreement,
at any time the LYONs are outstanding, the amounts Coleman Worldwide would be
required to pay to Mafco under the Tax Sharing Agreement, together with any
remaining funds paid to Coleman Worldwide by the Company under the tax sharing
agreement between Coleman Worldwide and the Company, may not be paid as tax
sharing payments, but Coleman Worldwide may advance such funds to Mafco as long
as the aggregate amount of such advances at any time does not exceed the issue
price plus accrued OID of the LYONs. Such advances are evidenced by noninterest
bearing unsecured demand promissory notes (the "Mafco Demand Notes") from Mafco
in the amount of $35,395 at December 31, 1997. Following the redemption or
retirement in full of the LYONs, expected to occur no later than May 27, 1998,
the Mafco Demand Notes shall be canceled automatically without further action of
any person, and shall be of no further force or effect whatsoever, and, until
the time of such cancellation, no demand or request for payment of any kind
shall be made with respect to the Mafco Demand Notes. As a result of the
restriction on the payment of the tax sharing amounts, income taxes provided
pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement are reflected as a non-cash charge. For
all periods presented, federal and state income taxes are provided as if Coleman
Worldwide filed its own income tax returns. The accompanying consolidated
balance sheet includes approximately $13,317 and $18,528 of federal and state
income taxes payable to Mafco pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement at December
31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

</TABLE>

     The deferred tax account balance at December 31, 1997 differs from the 
account balance at December 31, 1996 due primarily to the 1997 deferred tax 
provision, the tax effects of the foreign exchange gain recorded as a 
component of stockholder's equity, the tax effects of adjustments related to 
the finalization of the purchase accounting related to the acquisition of 
Camping Gaz and the deferred tax asset recorded related to the acquisitions 
in 1997 of inactive companies which were recorded as a capital contribution 
(see Note 12).

     During 1997, CLN Holdings increased the valuation allowance related to 
certain foreign deferred tax assets due to uncertainties over realization. At 
December 31, 1997, CLN Holdings had net operating loss carryforwards 
("NOL's") of approximately $107,229 for certain foreign income tax purposes. 
These NOL's expire beginning in 1998.

     CLN Holdings has not provided for taxes on undistributed foreign 
earnings of approximately $20,860 at December 31, 1997, as CLN Holdings 
intends to permanently reinvest these earnings in the future growth of the 
business. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred U.S. income 
tax liability is not practicable because of the complexities associated with 
its hypothetical calculation.

12.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS:

       As of March 31, 1997, the Company purchased an inactive subsidiary from 
an affiliate for net cash consideration of $1,031, including transaction 
costs. The Company expects to realize certain foreign tax benefits from this 
transaction in future years. Under certain circumstances, a portion of these 
tax benefits will be payable to the affiliate to the extent such tax benefits 
are realized by the Company. During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company 
purchased an inactive subsidiary from an affiliate in a transaction in which 
the Company expects to realize certain foreign tax benefits in future years 
and for which the Company agreed to pay 50% of those realized benefits to the 
affiliate. The Company has recorded a liability to the affiliate in the 
amount of $219 which represents 50% of the estimated amount of future tax 
benefits. The Company has accounted for these transactions in a manner 
similar to a pooling-of-interests due to the Mafco Holdings Inc. common 
control over each of the parties involved in the transactions. The $2,799 
excess value of estimated realizable tax benefits acquired over the total 
acquisition costs have been accounted for as a capital contribution.

     INSURANCE PROGRAMS:

       The Company participates in certain of Holdings' insurance programs, 
including health and life insurance, workers compensation, and liability 
insurance. The Company's expense represents its expected costs for 
self-insured retentions and premiums for excess coverage insurance. The 
expense was $13,339, $13,923 and $9,875 for the years ended December 31, 
1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

     SERVICES AGREEMENT:

       From time to time, Coleman purchases, at negotiated rates, specialized 
accounting and other services provided by an affiliate. Coleman also 
provides, at negotiated rates, services to an affiliate. The net expense for 
such services was $394 during 1997 and was immaterial in prior years.

     MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT:

       The Company provided management services to certain affiliates 
pursuant to a management agreement through June 30, 1995. The consolidated 
financial statements reflect the management fees as a reduction in selling, 
general and administration expenses. For the year ended December 31, 1995, 
management fees earned by the Company were $2,400.

     LICENSING AGREEMENT:

       During 1997, the Company engaged an affiliate of MacAndrews & Forbes 
to provide licensing services. The Company recorded expenses of $650 related 
to these services in 1997.

     OTHER:

       In 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with an affiliate in 
which the Company realized approximately $1,800 of net tax benefits 
associated with certain foreign tax net operating loss carryforwards that had 
not previously been recognized.

       The Company purchases and sells products from and to certain 
affiliates. These amounts are not, in the aggregate, material.

       The Company subleases six thousand square feet of office space in 
New York City from an affiliate pursuant to a month-to-month occupancy 
memorandum (the "Lease") entered into during 1997. The rent paid by the 
Company during the year ended December 31, 1997 pursuant to the Lease was $158.

       During 1997, Coleman used an airplane owned by a corporation of which 
a director of Coleman is a stockholder, for which Coleman paid approximately 
$158.

13.  EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

     PENSION PLANS:

       Holdings maintains pension and other retirement plans in various forms 
covering employees of the Company who meet eligibility requirements. The 
U.S. salaried retirement plan is a non-contributory defined benefit plan and 
provides benefits based on a formula of each participant's final average pay 
and years of service. The U.S. hourly pension plan is a non-contributory 
defined benefit plan and contains a flat benefit formula. The salaried and 
hourly plans provide reduced benefits for early retirement and the salaried 
plan takes into account offsets for Social Security benefits. The Company's 
policy is to contribute annually the minimum amount required pursuant to the 
Employee Retirement Income Security Act, as amended. Under certain 
circumstances, the Company may make additional contributions to the pension 
plans up to the maximum deductible amounts for income tax purposes.

     SAVINGS PLAN:

       Holdings maintains an employee savings plan under Section 401(k) of 
the Internal Revenue Code. This plan covers substantially all of the 
Company's full-time U.S. employees and allows employees to contribute up to 
10% of their salary to the plan. The Company matches, at a 34% rate, employee 
contributions of up to 6% of their salary. Amounts charged to expense for 
matching contributions were $1,401, $1,314, and $1,165 for the years ended 
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

     RETIREE HEALTH CARE AND LIFE INSURANCE:

       The Company, through Holdings, provides certain unfunded health and 
life insurance benefits for certain retired employees. Approximately 55% of 
the Company's U.S. employees may become eligible for these benefits if they 
reach retirement age while working for the Company.

amount of the obligation and periodic benefit expense reported. An increase in
the assumed health care cost trend rates by 1% in each year would increase the
APBO as of December 31, 1997 by approximately 19% and the service and interest
cost components of net periodic postretirement benefit expense by approximately
22%.

</TABLE>

        As described in Note 1, the Company follows APB Opinion No. 25 in
accounting for stock compensation arrangements. Pro forma financial information
regarding net income and earnings per share has been determined as if the
Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method
of SFAS No. 123. The fair value of ISOs and NQSOs granted during 1997, 1996 and
1995 were estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model with the following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free interest rates
of 6.53%, 6.11% and 5.91 % for 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, dividend yield
of 0.0%, volatility of the expected market price of the Company's common stock
of 31.3%, 20.2% and 30.8% for 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and a
weighted-average expected life of the option of 7.7, 5.5 and 5.5 years for 1997,
1996 and 1995, respectively.

        SFAS No. 123 requires the use of option valuation models, one of which
is the Black-Scholes model, that were not developed for use valuing ISOs or
NQSOs. Further, these option valuation models require the input of highly
subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. In
management's opinion, based on the above, the existing models do not necessarily
provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its ISOs or NQSOs.

        The following summarized, unaudited pro forma results of operations
assume the estimated fair value of the ISOs and NQSOs granted during the years
ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 is amortized to expense over the ISOs'
and NQSOs' vesting period. SFAS No. 123 does not require disclosure of the
effect of any grants of stock based compensation prior to 1995 and, therefore,
the pro forma effect of SFAS No. 123 on net earnings is not representative of
the pro forma effect on net earnings in future years.

14.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     LEASES:

        The Company leases manufacturing, administrative and sales facilities
and various types of equipment under operating lease agreements expiring through
2007. Rental expense was $15,620, $14,164, and $11,526 for the years ended
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Minimum rental commitments under
all noncancellable operating leases with remaining lease terms in excess of one
year from December 31, 1997, aggregated $31,506; such commitments for each of
the five years subsequent to December 31, 1997 are $7,571, $6,683, $4,622,
$2,848, and $3,560, respectively, and $6,222 thereafter.

        The Company leases its former corporate office building in Denver,
Colorado under agreements which give the Company the right, subject to certain
qualifications, to renew or terminate the lease, or purchase the property. Upon
termination, the Company has guaranteed the lessor certain residual values.

     ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS:

        GILBERT AND MOSLEY SITE. As a result of investigations undertaken in
1986, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment ("KDHE") discovered that
groundwater in the downtown Wichita area (the "Gilbert and Mosley Site") was
contaminated with volatile organic chemicals ("VOCs"). Coleman occupied a
facility within the boundaries of the Gilbert and Mosley Site. Subsequent
investigations in the area, including investigations in November 1988 by
Coleman, indicated the groundwater beneath the Coleman property is contaminated
with VOCs. Coleman is in the process of remediating the contamination on its
property.

        The City of Wichita has entered into a voluntary agreement with KDHE in
which the City agreed to investigate and then remediate contamination in the
Gilbert and Mosley Site. Coleman has entered into an agreement with KDHE in
which Coleman agreed to perform a similar study for the Coleman property and to
implement remedial activities at its property. In addition, Coleman entered into
an agreement with the City of Wichita in which Coleman agreed to fund its
proportionate share of the City's study and remediation of the Gilbert and
Mosley site.

        MAIZE SITE. Coleman has undertaken a soil and groundwater investigation
at its facility in Maize, Kansas (the "Maize Site"). Results indicate that
limited VOC contamination is present in the groundwater under and to the
southeast of the facility. The data has been reported to the KDHE, and Coleman
has entered into an agreement with KDHE to implement appropriate remedial
actions. The remediation system has been installed, and Coleman is in the
process of remediating the contaminated groundwater.

                        (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)

        NORTHEAST SITE. In 1990, Coleman undertook a soil and groundwater
investigation of its facility in northeast Wichita (the "Northeast Site").
Results indicated the presence of VOCs in the groundwater and soils. Although
some of the contamination may be a result of Coleman's operations at the
facility, the data also indicated that contamination was migrating onto the
Coleman property from up gradient sources. Coleman reported the initial results
of its study to KDHE. Coleman has also provided copies of all data to the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA"), at its request. The EPA has
not initiated any actions against the Company with respect to the Northeast
Site. An agreement has been entered into with KDHE to undertake additional
investigatory activities, and an interim remediation system has been installed.

     The Company has not been named as a potentially responsible party ("PRP")
by the EPA nor does it have joint and several liability with any other PRP for
remediation at any of the above sites.

     The Company has adopted an environmental policy designed to ensure the
Company operates in full compliance with applicable environmental regulations
and, where appropriate, the Company's own internal standards. Coleman has also
undertaken an environmental compliance audit program. The Company makes
expenditures it believes are necessary to comply with environmental management
practices. Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are
expensed or capitalized as appropriate and were not significant in 1997 and are
not expected to be significant in the foreseeable future. The Company accrues
for losses associated with environmental remediation obligations when such
losses are probable and reasonably estimable. Accruals for estimated losses from
environmental remediation obligations generally are recognized no later than
completion of the remedial feasibility study. Such accruals are adjusted as
further information develops or circumstances change. Costs of future
expenditures for environmental remediation obligations are not discounted to
their present value. Recoveries of environmental remediation costs from other
parties are recognized as assets when their receipt is deemed probable.

     While it is possible the Company reserves may change in the near term, the
Company believes the reserves established for environmental matters are
adequate. This belief is based on results of environmental investigations of the
groundwater and soils at the manufacturing facilities operated by Coleman
conducted by independent consultants specializing in environmental
investigations and remediation and estimates provided by such independent
consultants, together with estimates provided by Coleman's environmental
engineering staff.

     OTHER:

        The Company and Holdings are involved in various claims and legal 
actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes the 
ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material 
adverse effect on CLN Holdings' consolidated financial condition or results of 
operations. The Company has entered into a cross-indemnification agreement 
with Holdings pursuant to which it will indemnify Holdings against all 
liabilities related to businesses transferred to the Company by Holdings, and 
Holdings will indemnify the Company against all liabilities of Holdings other 
than liabilities related to the businesses transferred to the Company.

        The Company is party to a license agreement which requires payments of
minimum guaranteed royalties aggregating to $11,778 at December 31, 1997; such
commitments for each of the five years remaining under the agreement subsequent
to December 31, 1997 are $1,040, $1,745, $2,434, $3,010 and $3,549,
respectively.

15.  SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS

     The Company's U.S. and Canadian operations have one significant customer
which accounted for approximately 13%, 15%, and 19% of net revenues in the years
ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

16.  CASH FLOW REPORTING

     CLN Holdings uses the indirect method to report cash flows from operating
activities. Interest paid was $42,217, $37,608, and $23,976 and net income taxes
paid were $3,206, $2,857, and $4,606 for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996
and 1995, respectively. Certain non-cash transactions relating to acquisitions,
the issuance of long-term debt and income taxes have been reported in Notes 2, 9
and 11.

17.  GEOGRAPHIC SEGMENTS

     CLN Holdings, through the Company, designs, manufactures and markets a wide
variety of multiuse products and accessories, which are primarily marketed
through independent retail markets for outdoor recreation and hardware
consumers. CLN Holdings, through the Company, is a leading manufacturer and
marketer of brand name consumer products for the camping and related outdoor
recreation markets in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Japan.

     Operating profit, as indicated below, represents net revenues less
operating expenses and amortization of goodwill. Generally, sales between
geographic areas are made at cost plus a share of operating profit. Identifiable
assets are those used by each geographic segment. Corporate assets are
principally cash, certain property and equipment, income tax refunds receivable
- affiliate, and deferred charges.

Merger, the Company will be an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Sunbeam.

     The CLN Holdings Merger is subject to the expiration of antitrust waiting
periods and certain other customary conditions. The Coleman Merger Agreement is
subject to consummation of the CLN Holdings Merger. These transactions will

LYONs and the Escrow Notes. Per the terms of the Merger Agreements, certain
arrangements with related parties may be altered or terminated. In addition,
outstanding, unvested Company stock options immediately vest upon consummation

1.      BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

        CLN Holdings Inc. (formerly known as Coleman Escrow Corp. ("CLN 
Holdings")), is a holding company formed in May 1997 in connection with the 
offering of Senior Secured First Priority Discount Notes due 2001 (the "First 
Priority Notes") and Senior Secured Second Priority Discount Notes due 2001 
(the "Second Priority Notes" and together with the First Priority Notes, the 
("Old Priority Notes") to hold all of the outstanding shares of capital stock 
of Coleman Holdings Inc. ("Coleman Holdings"). Coleman Holdings was a holding 
company formed in July 1993 in connection with the offering of Senior Secured 
Discount Notes due 1998 (the "Holdings Notes") to hold all of the outstanding 
shares of capital stock of Coleman Worldwide Corporation ("Coleman 
Worldwide"). On July 15, 1997, Coleman Holdings was merged into CLN Holdings. 
Coleman Worldwide is a holding company formed in March 1993 in connection 
with the offering of Liquid Yield OptionTM Notes due 2013 (the "LYONs"TM). 
Coleman Worldwide also holds 44,067,520 shares of the common stock of The 
Coleman Company, Inc. ("Coleman" or the "Company") which represented 
approximately 82% of the outstanding Coleman common stock as of December 31, 
1997. CLN Holdings and Coleman Worldwide are holding companies with no 
business operations of their own.

        In the CLN Holdings parent company-only financial statements, CLN
Holdings' investment in Coleman Worldwide is stated at cost plus equity in
undistributed (loss) earnings of Coleman Worldwide since date of acquisition.
Coleman Holdings' share of net earnings (loss) of its unconsolidated subsidiary
is included in consolidated earnings (loss) using the equity method. The CLN
Holdings parent company-only financial statements should be read in conjunction
with CLN Holdings' consolidated financial statements.

2.      LONG-TERM DEBT

         On May 20, 1997, CLN Holdings issued approximately $600,475 in 
principal amount at maturity of First Priority Notes and approximately 
$131,560 in principal amount at maturity of Second Priority Notes resulting in 
aggregate net proceeds of approximately $455,257. The First Priority Notes and 
Second Priority Notes were issued at a discount from their principal amount at 
maturity to yield 11 1/8% and 12 7/8%, respectively, per annum calculated from 
May 20, 1997. Subsequent to the issuance of the Old Priority Notes, CLN 
Holdings consummated a registered exchange offer whereby senior secured notes 
having substantially identical terms as the Old Priority Notes were exchanged 
for a like principal amount of Old Priority Notes (the "Exchange Notes" and 
collectively with the Old Priority Notes, the "Escrow Notes"). The indenture 
governing the Escrow Notes (the "Indenture") requires, subject to certain 
exceptions, that the retirement of the remaining outstanding LYONs be 
consummated no later than June 10, 1998. The Indenture requires CLN Holdings 
to hold, directly or indirectly, a majority of the voting power of the Company 
at all times, unless and until CLN Holdings exercises its right to substitute 
U.S. Government obligations for all of the pledged collateral. The Indenture, 
to which Coleman is not a party, also contains certain covenants that, among 
other things, generally prohibit the incurrence of additional debt by CLN 
Holdings and the issuance of additional debt and the issuance of preferred 
stock by Coleman Worldwide, and limit (i) the incurrence of additional debt 
and the issuance of preferred stock by the Company, (ii) the payment of 
dividends on the capital stock of CLN Holdings and its subsidiaries and the 
redemption or repurchase of the capital stock of CLN Holdings, (iii) the sale 
of assets and subsidiary stock, (iv) transactions with affiliates, (v) the 
creation of liens on the assets of CLN Holdings and Coleman Worldwide, and 
(vi) consolidations, mergers and transfers of all or substantially all of CLN 
Holdings' assets. The foregoing limitations and prohibitions, however, are 
subject to a number of qualifications. The Escrow Notes also contain customary 
events of defaults and a put right by the holders in the event of a change of 
control of CLN Holdings (as defined in the Indenture).

Approximately $262,194 of the net proceeds of the Escrow Notes were contributed
to Coleman Holdings, then a subsidiary of CLN Holdings, and used by it to
redeem, on July 15, 1997, the Holdings Notes. Coleman Holdings recorded an
extraordinary loss of $4,300, net of tax benefits of $2,315, relating to the
excess of the redemption price over the accreted value of the Holdings Notes and
the write-off of deferred charges related to the Holdings Notes. Approximately
$191,278 of the net proceeds of the Escrow Notes were contributed to Coleman
Worldwide and used by it to accept for exchange during 1997, $554,053 aggregate
principal amount at maturity of LYONs, including redemption fees and expenses.
Coleman Worldwide recorded an extraordinary loss of $10,939, net of tax benefits
of $7,076, relating to the excess of the exchange offer price over the accreted
value of the LYONs, the write-off of deferred charges related to the LYONs
exchanged and redemption fees and expenses. Coleman Worldwide plans to redeem
the remaining $7,500 aggregate principal amount at maturity of LYONs no later
than May 27, 1998 with the remaining proceeds from the issuance of the Escrow
Notes which are being held in escrow. The LYONs, to which the Company is not a
party, provide that it is an Additional Purchase Right Event (as defined below)
if, among other things, the amount of debt incurred by the Company exceeds
certain limitations. The $7,500 principal amount at maturity of LYONs which
remain outstanding are secured by a pledge of 7,692,854 shares of Company common
stock owned by Coleman Worldwide. The Escrow Notes are secured by a pledge of
all the shares of common stock of Coleman Worldwide and guaranteed pursuant to a
non-recourse guaranty of Coleman Worldwide (the "Guaranty"), which Guaranty is
currently secured by a pledge of 36,374,666 shares of Company common stock and
will be secured by the shares currently securing the LYONs upon their
redemption.
