4.  ACQUISITIONS

TRUSCO TANK, INC.

On May 1, 1997, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of
capital stock of Trusco Tank, Inc.  ("Trusco") and two parcels of real property
used in Trusco's business and owned by two of its shareholders. Trusco is a
full-range designer, fabricator and field erector of steel structures, including
storage tanks, pressure vessels and shop-built tanks (both aboveground and
underground). Trusco's customers include municipal water districts, wastewater
treatment facilities, oil companies, industrial facilities, wineries, and
various process industries.


                                     - 7 -

The base purchase price recorded by the Company of $11,458,000 consisted of
$10,958,000 in cash and $500,000 of acquisition-related expenses. The purchase
price was paid in cash using proceeds from the amended credit facility
discussed below. In addition, the Company repaid Trusco's existing bank
obligations totaling $4,500,000. The acquisition has been accounted for using
the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations of Trusco
commencing May 2, 1997 are included in the condensed consolidated financial
statements.

The following unaudited pro forma information shows the results of operations of

GRAVER TANK & MFG. CO., INC.

On March 28, 1996, the Company acquired Graver Holding Company and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Graver Tank & Mfg.  Co., Inc. (collectively "Graver").
Graver designs, manufactures and erects storage tanks and pressure vessels for
the petroleum and process industries. Graver also provides nickel-clad
installations for the power generation and air pollution industries, providing
fabrication and erection of scrubbers, chimneys, and stack liners. The base
purchase price recorded by the Company of $2,900,000 consisted of $2,750,000 in
cash and $150,000 of acquisition-related expenses. In addition, the Company
repaid Graver's existing bank obligations totaling $2,420,000. The seller is
entitled to receive additional cash proceeds of up to $1,250,000 pursuant to the
terms of an earn-out arrangement based on future profits (as defined) of Graver
during each of the three fiscal years ending September 30, 1998. For the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1996, the amount earned was $236,000 which was paid
during the second quarter of fiscal 1997.

The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
The results of operations of Graver commencing March 29, 1996 are included in
the consolidated financial statements. Costs of the acquisition in excess of net
assets of the business acquired were approximately $1,154,000.

BROWN-MINNEAPOLIS TANK & FABRICATING CO. ("BMT")

On March 1, 1994, the Company acquired all of the capital stock of BMT. The
consideration paid by the Company to Mr. Jacobs was comprised of the following:
(i) $11,515,000 in cash; (ii) 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock; (iii) a $500,000
unsecured subordinated promissory note; and (iv) contingent annual cash payments
for a period of five years beginning as of October 1, 1993, in an amount equal
to 50% of the BMT Calculated Profit Amount (as defined in the Stock Purchase
Agreement) ("Earn-Out") for each of the fiscal years ended September 30, 1994
through 1998, inclusive; provided, however that in no event shall the


                                     - 8 -

<PAGE>   11
aggregate contingent payments exceed $9,000,000. For fiscal year 1996, this
contingent purchase consideration amounted to $1,355,000. On February 28, 1997
the parties amended the Stock Purchase Agreement to provide for a complete
settlement of all remaining contingent purchase consideration for a cash payment
of $2,600,000. The Company paid $600,0000 upon signing the amendment and
recorded an additional $2,000,000 of Earn-out payable which is due and payable
by September 30, 1997.


5. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING AND NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Effective October 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
and for Long Lived Assets to be Disposed Of." The adoption of SFAS No.121 did
not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

Effective October 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation." This new standard defines a fair value based method
of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument.  This
statement gives entities a choice of recognizing related compensation expense by
adopting the new fair value method or to continue to measure compensation using
the intrinsic value approach under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No.
25, the former standard. The Company has elected to continue using the
measurement prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25, and accordingly, the adoption of
this pronouncement did not affect the Company's financial position or results of
operations. Management plans to include the required disclosures under SFAS No.
123 in the notes to its fiscal year 1997 consolidated financial statements.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" which is effective for financial statements issued
for periods ending after December 15, 1997. At that time, the Company will be
required to change the methods currently used to compute earnings per share
(EPS) and to restate all prior periods. SFAS No. 128 replaces the current
presentation of "primary" EPS with "basic" EPS, with the principle difference
being that common stock equivalents are not considered in computing "basic" EPS.
The statement also requires the replacement of current "fully diluted" EPS with
"diluted" EPS. "Diluted" EPS will be computed similarly to "fully diluted" EPS.
The adoption of this statement will not have a material impact on the Company's
EPS computation.

In June 1997 the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income",
which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS No.
130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses) in a full set of
general-purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires that all items that
are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of
comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with
the same prominence as other financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires that an
enterprise (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a
financial statement and (b) display the accumulated balance of other
comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in
capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. The Company
is currently assessing the impact that adoption of this statement will have on
its financial position and results of operations.  

In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information", which is effective for financial statements
for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS No. 131 establishes
standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about
operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those
enterprises report selected information about


                                     - 9 -

<PAGE>   12
operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also
establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers. SFAS No. 131 also requires that a public
business enterprise report descriptive information about the way that the
operating segments were determined, the products and services provided by the
operating segments, differences between the measurements used in reporting
segment information and those used in the enterprises general-purpose financial
statements, and changes in the measurement of segment amounts from period to
period. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adoption of this 
statement will have on its financial position and results of operations.


6. CONTINGENCIES

On March 19, 1996, the Company's HMT Inc. subsidiary ("HMT") was served with a
complaint filed in Superior Court of California, County of Contra Costa. This
matter arises out of a tank fire which occurred in June of 1995, at a refinery
in northern California, where Company employees were replacing seals on an
aboveground storage tank. This complaint, filed by Valerie Vega-Wright, seeks to
certify a class of persons affected by the fire under theories of negligence,
nuisance, battery, trespass and strict liability. The complaint seeks damages
for, among other things, personal injuries and loss of property value, and is
requesting unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. The Company has
removed this litigation to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of
California. On October 22, 1996, HMT was served with a complaint in Allison v.
Unocal et al, which was simultaneously filed in the Contra Costa Superior Court.
The complaint seeks damages for alleged personal injuries, property damage and
punitive damages. Two hundred sixteen plaintiffs contend that they were injured
as a result of the tank fire and seek damages against HMT as well as the owner
of the refinery. The Company is currently attempting to request that the federal
court remand all actions back to the state court based on this second
complaint. The Company's insurance carriers (both primary and excess) have been
notified and both the Company and its insurance carriers are assessing the
claims and related policy coverages. This matter is in its initial stages and
investigative activities are continuing. While the ultimate outcome cannot now
be determined because of the uncertainties that exist, the Company believes
that its insurance coverages are adequate to address its potential liability, if
any. Any unfavorable result not covered by insurance could result in a
material charge which has not been reflected in the accompanying financial
statements. The Company intends to defend vigorously this action.

The Company is a party to certain other legal proceedings occurring in the
ordinary course of business. Based upon information presently available to it,
the Company does not believe that the final outcome of any of these other
matters will have a materially adverse effect on the consolidated financial
position, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.


7. LONG-TERM DEBT

On April 30, 1997, the Company executed an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit
and Term Loan Agreement (the "Credit Facility") with Bank One, which
consolidated then existing term indebtedness and provided financing to be used
for the acquisition of Trusco, working capital support, capital expenditures,
and other general corporate purposes.


                                     - 10 -

<PAGE>   13
The Credit Facility, as restated and amended, consists of the following:

(i)    A term loan in the original amount of $25,000,000, bearing interest at
       the Company's option at either a spread ranging from the bank's base rate
       minus 1/2 percent to the bank's base rate plus 1/4 percent or at various
       LIBOR rates plus spreads ranging from 1-1/4 percent to 2-3/4 percent. The
       applicable spread is based upon the ratio of the Company's total funded
       debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization,
       as defined. Interest is payable either quarterly or at certain LIBOR
       contract termination dates. The term loan is payable in equal quarterly
       installments of $892,857 until February 28, 2004.

(ii)   A revolving line of credit of up to $20,000,000, bearing interest at
       options equal to those available under the term loan. In addition, the
       Company pays a quarterly commitment fee of 1/4 percent per annum on the
       average daily unused amount. The borrowing amount is based on the
       Company's eligible accounts receivable and inventory, as defined. The
       principal amount outstanding plus all accrued and unpaid interest is due
       on February 28, 2000.

(iii)  A $5,000,000 advancing term loan available until February 28, 1998 for
       capital expenditures bearing interest at the same options as the term
       loan. Beginning on May 28, 1998, any principal amount then outstanding
       will be payable in equal quarterly installments until February 28, 2004.

All obligations of the Company under the Credit Facility are collateralized by
substantially all of the assets of the Company and the pledge by the Company of
the Common Stock of each of its direct subsidiaries. The obligations of the
Company are guaranteed by each direct and indirect subsidiary. The Credit
Facility contains certain covenants which provide for, among other things,
maintenance of various financial ratios.

Long-term debt at June 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996 consisted of the
following:

8.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 23, 1997, the Board of Directors approved and the Company executed a
Plan and Agreement of Merger ("Merger Agreement") with ITEQ, Inc. ("ITEQ").
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company will be merged into ITEQ, with
ITEQ being the surviving corporation. The terms of the proposed transaction call
for the Company's shareholders to receive 0.93 shares of ITEQ common stock for
each share of the Company's Common Stock. The Merger Agreement is subject to
shareholder and regulatory approval. The transaction will be accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests and is expected to close in late September or early October
1997.

The Company acquired Graver on March 28, 1996. The results of operations of
Graver are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the
first nine months of fiscal 1997 and are included in only the third quarter of
fiscal 1996. The Company acquired Trusco on May 1, 1997. The results of
operations of Trusco are included in the condensed consolidated financial
statements for the two months ended June 30, 1997 and are not included in the
first nine months of fiscal 1996.

The Company's revenues increased by $6,464,000 or 20% in the third quarter of
fiscal 1997 and $19,757,000 or 24% in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 as
compared to the same periods a year ago. Approximately 67% of the increase in
the third quarter was a result of the inclusion of Trusco in 1997, coupled with
a change in the revenue mix of the Company's business. Approximately 73% of the
increase in the nine-month period was a result of the inclusion of Graver and
Trusco in fiscal 1997.

The total amounts of contracts in backlog, as of June 30, 1997 and 1996, were
approximately $54,235,000 and $49,556,000, respectively, including both the
uncompleted portion of contracts in progress and contracts awarded but not yet
started. The increase in backlog of $4,679,000 was primarily due to the 
addition of Trusco. The majority of the backlog at June 30, 1997 is expected 
to be completed within a year.

Gross profit margin on revenues decreased from 26.3% in the first nine months of
fiscal 1996 to 25.7% in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 and decreased from
25.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 1996 to 25.0% in the third quarter of
fiscal 1997. This was primarily a net result of a change in the revenue mix of
the business, coupled with the addition of Trusco and Graver in fiscal 1997.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $2,425,000 or 17% from
the first nine months of fiscal 1996 to fiscal 1997 and increased $559,000 or
10% from the third quarter of fiscal 1996 to the third quarter of fiscal 1997.
Substantially all of the increase for the third quarter was a result of the
inclusion of Trusco's costs in fiscal 1997. Approximately 50% of the increase
for the nine-month period was a result of the inclusion of Graver's and Trusco's
costs in fiscal 1997. The remainder of the increase was primarily a result of
increased costs associated with the Company's investment in a corporate-wide
management information system. However, due to the increase in revenues,
selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues,
decreased from 16.9% in the first nine months of fiscal 1996 to 16.0% in the
first nine months of fiscal 1997 and from 16.1% in the third quarter of fiscal
1996 to 14.9% in the third quarter of fiscal 1996.

The Company had operating profit of $2,787,000 for the third quarter of fiscal
1997 compared to $2,005,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 and $6,499,000
for the first nine months of fiscal 1997 compared to $5,050,000 for the same
period of 1996. The increase resulted primarily from the operating profit
generated by Graver and Trusco and the increase in revenues from repair and
maintenance services.

Interest expense increased by $212,000 or 62% from the third quarter of fiscal
1996 to the third quarter of fiscal 1997 and $309,000 or 35% from the first nine
months of fiscal 1996 to the first nine months of fiscal 1997. This increase was
due to increased debt levels resulting from borrowings to fund the Graver and
Trusco acquisitions.

Current income tax expense consists of federal, state and foreign income taxes.
Deferred income taxes consist principally of federal income taxes. The Company's
effective income tax rate was 39.6% and 40.4% of income before income taxes in
the first nine months of 1997 and 1996, respectively and was 38.3% and 42.1% for
the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The rate varied
from the statutory rate primarily due to state taxes and certain nondeductible
goodwill amortization.

The Company had net income of $1,443,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1997
compared to $1,082,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 and $3,357,000 for
the first nine months of fiscal 1997 compared to $2,644,000 for the same period
of fiscal 1996. The majority of the increase resulted from the inclusion of
Graver and Trusco for a longer period of time in 1997 than 1996 as discussed 
above and higher volumes of repair and maintenance revenues. 

Effective October 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
and for Long Lived Assets to be Disposed Of." The adoption of SFAS No.121 did
not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

Effective October 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation." This new standard defines a fair value based method
of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument.  This
statement gives entities a choice of recognizing related compensation expense by
adopting the new fair value method or to continue to measure compensation using
the intrinsic value approach under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No.
25, the former standard. The Company has elected to continue using the
measurement prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25, and accordingly, the adoption of
this pronouncement did not affect the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share" which is effective for financial statements issued for
periods ending after December 15, 1997. At that time, the Company will be
required to change the methods currently used to compute earnings per share
("EPS") and to


                                     - 14 -

<PAGE>   17
restate all prior periods. SFAS No. 128 replaces the current presentation of
"primary" EPS with "basic" EPS, with the principle difference being that common
stock equivalents are not considered in computing "basic" EPS. The statement
also requires the replacement of current "fully diluted" EPS with "diluted" EPS.
"Diluted" EPS will be computed similarly to "fully diluted" EPS. The adoption of
this statement will not have any material impact on the Company's EPS
computation.

In June 1997 the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income",
which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS No.
130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses) in a full set of
general-purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires that all items that
are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of
comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with
the same prominence as other financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires that an
enterprise (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a
financial statement and (b) display the accumulated balance of other
comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in
capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. The Company 
is currently assessing the impact that adoption of this statement will have on 
its financial position and results of operation.


In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information", which is effective for financial statements
for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS No. 131 establishes
standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about
operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those
enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim
financial reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for
related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major
customers. SFAS No. 131 also requires that a public business enterprise report
descriptive information about the way that the operating segments were
determined, the products and services provided by the operating segments,
differences between the measurements used in reporting segment information and
those used in the enterprises general-purpose financial statements, and changes
in the measurement of segment amounts from period to period. The Company 
is currently assessing the impact that adoption of this statement will have on 
its financial position and results of operation.

LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL

On April 30, 1997, the Company executed an Amended and Restated Revolving
Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the "Credit Facility") with Bank One, which
consolidated then existing term indebtedness and provided financing to be used
for the acquisition of Trusco, working capital support, capital expenditures,
and other general corporate purposes.

The Credit Facility, as restated and amended, consists of the following:

     (i) A term loan in the original amount of $25,000,000, bearing interest at
         the Company's option at either a spread ranging from the bank's base
         rate minus 1/2 percent to the bank's base rate plus 1/4 percent or at
         various LIBOR rates plus spreads ranging from 1-1/4 percent to 2-3/4
         percent. The applicable spread is based upon the ratio of the Company's
         total funded debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
         amortization, as defined. Interest is payable either quarterly or at
         certain LIBOR contract termination dates. The term loan is payable in
         equal quarterly installments of $892,857 until February 28, 2004.

    (ii) A revolving line of credit of up to $20,000,000, bearing interest at
         options equal to those available under the term loan. In addition, the
         Company pays a quarterly commitment fee of 1/4 percent per


                                     - 15 -

<PAGE>   18
         annum on the average daily unused amount. The borrowing amount is based
         on the Company's eligible accounts receivable and inventory, as
         defined. The principal amount outstanding plus all accrued and unpaid
         interest is due on February 28, 2000.

   (iii) A $5,000,000 advancing term loan available until February 28, 1998 for
         capital expenditures bearing interest at the same options as the term
         loan. Beginning on May 28, 1998, any principal amount then outstanding
         will be payable in equal quarterly installments until February 28,
         2004.

All obligations of the Company under the Credit Facility are collateralized by
substantially all of the assets of the Company and the pledge by the Company of
the Common Stock of each of its direct subsidiaries. The obligations of the
Company are guaranteed by each direct and indirect subsidiary. The Credit
Facility contains certain covenants which provide for, among other things,
maintenance of various financial ratios. At June 30, 1997, the Company was in
compliance with all such covenants in effect at that time.

Cash provided by operating activities was $9,068,000 for the first nine months
of fiscal 1997, as compared to $3,504,000 for the first nine months of fiscal
1996. Net cash provided by operating activities resulted from net cash inflows
from net income plus non-cash items aggregating $7,919,000 and $6,766,000 in the
first nine months of fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1996, respectively, and net cash
flows due to changes in working capital items.

Cash used in investing activities of $15,550,000 for the first nine months of
fiscal 1997 was primarily used for the acquisition of Trusco. In addition, cash
used in investing activities for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 included
capital expenditures and payments of contingent purchase consideration in
connection with the acquisitions of BMT and Graver. Net cash used in investing
activities of $7,678,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 1996 was primarily
used for capital expenditures and the acquisition of Graver. Capital
expenditures during the first nine months of fiscal 1997 totaled $2,419,000
compared to the prior period's expenditures of $5,044,000. The Company has
currently budgeted an additional $1,000,000 for capital expenditures during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 including $400,000 principally for machinery and
equipment, $200,000 for tanks held for lease, $200,000 for computer hardware and
software and $200,000 for facility improvements. The Company expects to be able
to finance these expenditures with available working capital and credit
facilities.

On March 1, 1994, the Company acquired all of the capital stock of BMT. The
consideration paid by the Company to Mr. Jacobs was comprised of the following:
(i) $11,515,000 in cash; (ii) 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock; (iii) a $500,000
unsecured subordinated promissory note; and (iv) contingent annual cash payments
for a period of five years beginning as of October 1, 1993, in an amount equal
to 50% of the BMT Calculated Profit Amount (as defined in the Stock Purchase
Agreement) ("Earn-Out") for each of the fiscal years ended September 30, 1994
through 1998, inclusive; provided, however that in no event shall the aggregate
contingent payments exceed $9,000,000. For fiscal years 1995 and 1996, this
contingent purchase consideration amounted to $424,000 and $1,355,000,
respectively. On February 28, 1997 the parties amended the Stock Purchase
Agreement to provide for a complete settlement of all remaining contingent
purchase consideration for a cash payment of $2,600,000. The Company paid
$600,0000 upon signing the amendment and recorded an additional $2,000,000 of
Earn-Out payable which is due and payable by September 30, 1997.

On July 23, 1997, the Board of Directors approved and the Company executed a
Plan and Agreement of Merger ("Merger Agreement") with ITEQ. Pursuant to
the Merger Agreement, the Company will be merged into ITEQ, with ITEQ
being the surviving corporation. The terms of the proposed transaction call for
the Company's shareholders to receive 0.93 shares of ITEQ common stock for each
share of the Company's Common Stock. The Merger Agreement is subject to
shareholder and regulatory approval. The transaction will be accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests and is expected to close in late September or early
October 1997.

The Company is currently focusing on a reengineering effort designed to examine 
and improve its core business processes with a goal to better serve customers 
and to enhance the future performance of the Company. Costs incurred associated 
with the reengineering effort through June 30, 1997 have not been significant. 
The Company believes this reengineering effort will be enabled by the Company's 
new management information system.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $6,807,000 in the first nine months
of fiscal 1997 was primarily a result of borrowings for the acquisition of
Trusco offset by the payment of Trusco's existing bank obligations totaling
$4,500,000 and regularly scheduled payments on long-term debt. Cash provided by
financing activities of $4,174,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 1996 was
primarily a result of borrowing for the acquisition of Graver and net borrowings
under the Company's revolving line of credit and 1995 capital expenditure
advancing term loan offset by the payment of Graver's existing bank obligations
totaling $2,420,000 and regularly scheduled payments on long-term debt. During
November 1995, the Company completed a program to repurchase small shareholders'
common stock at no cost to the shareholder. Through this program the Company
repurchased and retired 90,109 shares of stock at an aggregate purchase price of
$293,000.

The Company believes that its existing funds, amounts generated by operations,
and amounts available for borrowing under its credit facility with Bank One will
be sufficient to meet its working capital needs through fiscal 1997. Management
continues to review acquisition opportunities. It is anticipated that any
significant acquisition will require acquisition financing and will require the
consent of Bank One. No assurances can be made that any such acquisition will be
made, or that any such financing will be obtained on terms and conditions
satisfactory to the Company.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On March 19, 1996, the Company's HMT Inc. subsidiary ("HMT") was served with a
complaint filed in Superior Court of California, County of Contra Costa. This
matter arises out of a tank fire which occurred in June of 1995, at a refinery
in northern California, where Company employees were replacing seals on an
aboveground storage tank. This complaint, filed by Valerie Vega-Wright, seeks to
certify a class of persons affected by the fire under theories of negligence,
nuisance, battery, trespass and strict liability. The complaint seeks damages
for, among other things, personal injuries and loss of property value, and is
requesting unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. The Company has
removed this litigation to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of
California. On October 22, 1996, HMT was served with a complaint in Allison v.
Unocal et al, which was simultaneously filed in the Contra Costa Superior Court.
The complaint seeks damages for alleged personal injuries, property damage and
punitive damages. Two hundred sixteen plaintiffs contend that they were injured
as a result of the tank fire and seek damages against HMT as well as the owner
of the refinery. The Company is currently attempting to request that the federal
court remand all actions back to the state court based on this second
Complaint. The Company's insurance carriers (both primary and excess) have been
notified and both the Company and its insurance carriers are assessing the
claims and related policy coverages. This matter is in its initial stages and
investigative activities are continuing. While the ultimate outcome cannot now
be determined because of the uncertainties that exist, the Company believes
that its insurance coverages are adequate to address its potential liability, if
any. Any unfavorable result not covered by insurance could result in a
material charge which has not been reflected in the accompanying financial
statements. The Company intends to defend vigorously this action.

The Company is a party to certain other legal proceedings occurring in the
ordinary course of business. Based upon information presently available to it,
the Company does not believe that the final outcome of any of these other
matters will have a materially adverse effect on the consolidated financial
position, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.
