ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

        In August 1996, Brazos, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, entered into
a financial advisory agreement with Sanders Morris Mundy ("SMM") in connection
with the merger with BSI Holdings, Inc. ("BSI"), which merger was consummated on
March 14, 1997 (the "Merger"). Mr. Chadwick is a senior vice president and a
managing director of SMM and became a director of the Company following the
Merger. The agreement provided for a success fee of approximately $160,000 based
on the transaction price in addition to $100,000 previously paid in financial
advisory fees.

        Pursuant to an asset purchase agreement consummated in August 1996,
Brazos, Inc. acquired substantially all of the assets of Plymouth for a purchase
price of approximately $36 million. Upon consummation of the acquisition, Mr.
Elenson, the controlling shareholder of Plymouth, became a member of the board
of directors of BSI, and he remains a director of the Company. As part of the
purchase price for the acquisition of Plymouth's assets, BSI agreed to pay
certain contingent consideration and issued to Plymouth junior subordinated
debentures in the amounts of $3.0 million and $4.0 million which provide for
periodic interest payments and which mature in December 1997 and December 2003,
respectively. Upon consummation of the Merger, the $3.0 million junior
subordinated debenture was repaid in full.

        To finance the acquisition of the Plymouth assets, Brazos, Inc. issued
2,500,000 shares of its preferred stock and BSI issued warrants to purchase
66,511 shares of BSI Common Stock, with

                                        8
<PAGE>
an exercise price of $.01 per share, for aggregate consideration of $2,500,000.
The preferred stock has been recorded at a discount of $485,000 to give effect
to the estimated fair value of the stock purchase warrants at the date of
issuance. The Brazos, Inc. preferred stock was subsequently exchanged for the
same number of shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock of BSI and which pursuant to
the Merger and related reincorporated was converted into the same number of
shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock of the Company. The BSI warrants were
converted into warrants to purchase 2,521,581 shares of Company Common Stock
pursuant to the Merger (or 504,316 shares after giving effect to the
five-for-one reverse split pursuant to the reincorporation). The following share
and exercise price information underlying the warrants gives effect to the
Merger and parenthetically to the five- for-one reverse stock split pursuant to
the reincorporation. Equus II purchased 1,200,000 shares of Series B-2 Preferred
Stock and a warrant to purchase 1,210,386 shares (242,077 shares) of Company
Common Stock at a purchase price of $1.2 million. Equus II also received
warrants to purchase 151,307 shares (30,261 shares) of Company Common Stock at
an exercise price of $.92 per share ($4.62 per share). Mr. Chadwick purchased
100,000 shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase 100,865
shares (21,173 shares) of Company Common Stock at a purchase price of $100,000.
Mr. Taylor (together with his spouse) and each of Messrs. George Warny and
Samuel T. McKnight purchased 75,634 shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock and a
warrant to purchase 75,634 shares (15,128 shares) of Company Common Stock at a
purchase price of $75,000 (with the warrant purchased by Mr. McKnight issued in
the name of a trust for the benefit of his children). Mr. Chambers purchased
50,000 shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase 50,423
shares (10,084 shares) of Company Common Stock at a purchase price of $50,000.
In addition, Mr. Chambers, as trustee for two trusts created for the benefit of
his two children, purchased 25,000 shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock and a
warrant to purchase 25,211 shares (5,042 shares) of Company Common Stock at a
purchase price of $25,000.

        In connection with the Plymouth acquisition, the following subordinated
debt of Brazos, Inc. was converted into shares of BSI Series B Preferred Stock;
Equus II converted Senior Notes in the amount of $3,350,000 and $178,500 into
3,728,500 shares; each of Messrs. Warny and McKnight converted Senior Notes in
the amount of $234,392 and $29,750 into 264,142 shares; Mr. Chadwick converted
Senior Notes in the amount of $75,000 and $29,750 into 104,750 shares; Mr.
Chambers converted Senior Notes in the amount of $75,000 and $29,750 into
104,750 shares; and J. Ford and Sandra Taylor converted a note in the amount of
$190,000 into 190,000 shares. All of these shares were subsequently exchanged
for the same number of shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock of the Company
pursuant to the Merger and reincorporation.

        In connection with the Merger and reincorporation, BSI issued 2,000,000
shares of Series B-3 Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 36,000 shares of
BSI Common Stock, with an exercise price of $50.00 per share, for aggregate
consideration of $2,000,000. These shares of preferred stock were subsequently
converted into the same number of shares of B-3 Preferred Stock of the Company
pursuant to the Merger and reincorporation. The BSI warrants were converted into
warrants to purchase 1,364,841 shares of Company Common Stock at an exercise
price of $1.32 per share pursuant to the Merger (272,968 shares at an exercise
price of $6.59 per share after giving effect to the five-for-one reverse split
pursuant to the reincorporation). The following share information underlying the
warrants gives effect to the Merger and parenthetically to the five-for-one
reverse split pursuant to the reincorporation. Equus II purchased 1,030,000
shares of Series B-3 Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase 702,893 shares
(140,578 shares) of Company Common Stock at a purchase price of approximately
$1.0 million. Mr. Taylor (together with his spouse) and each of Messrs.
Chadwick, Chambers, and Warny purchased 50,000 shares of Series B-3 Preferred
Stock and a warrant to purchase 34,121 share (6,824 shares) of Company Common
Stock at a price of $50,000.

     In April 1997, the Company entered into a financial advisory agreement with
SMM pursuant to which SMM in entitled to certain fees associated with the
Company's future acquisitions and financings. The acquisition fee is (i) 1% of
the transaction price for each consummated acquisition which was introduced to
the Company by SMM, subject to a $100,000 minimum acquisition fee or (ii)
$50,000 for any other acquisition consummated by the Company. The financing fee
is to be negotiated by the parties at the time of the financing and is payable
only if the Company seeks to retain the services of SMM in connection therewith.

        Brazos, Inc. leases a 77,500 square foot office and production facility
in College Station, Texas, from a partnership that includes Equus II and Messrs.
Taylor, Chambers and Chadwick. The lease is for a ten year term expiring June
2002, and provides for monthly lease payments of $18,000.

        Management is of the opinion that all of the transactions were on terms
at least as favorable as could have been obtained from unaffiliated third
parties at the times negotiated and under the conditions then applicable.
