     The following unaudited pro forma consolidated  statements of operations of
the  Registrant for the year ended December 31, 1996 and the year ended December
31, 1995 present  results for the  Registrant as if the  acquisition of Superior

pro forma adjustments are based on available information and certain assumptions
that the Registrant currently believes are reasonable in the circumstances.  The

historical Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes of Superior for the years
ended  December  31,  1996 and  1995.  The pro forma  adjustments  and pro forma
consolidated amounts are provided for informational purposes only.

     The pro forma  information is presented for illustrative  purposes only and
is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or financial position
that would have occurred had the  transactions  described above been consummated
