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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the plan at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the changes in its net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP June 2, 1995 UIC 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan Statements of Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits December 31 1994 1993 ------------ ------------ ASSETS Investments, stated at fair value: Fidelity Magellan Fund $16,558,075 $16,524,208 Fidelity Managed Income Portfolio 17,766,454 17,119,816 Fidelity Growth & Income Fund 2,988,589 2,194,421 Fidelity Retirement Government Money Market Fund 721,253 710,697 Fidelity Contrafund 646,463 - Fidelity Investment Grade Bond Fund 46,628 - United Industrial Corporation Common Stock 67,025 38,688 Participant loans 837,497 759,022 ----------- ----------- 39,631,984 37,346,852 =========== =========== Cash - 750 ----------- ---------- Net assets available for Plan benefits $39,631,984 $37,347,602 =========== =========== See accompanying notes.

Significant Accounting Policies Investments in the Fidelity Magellan Fund, Fidelity Growth & Income Fund, Fidelity Managed Income Portfolio, Fidelity Retirement Government Money Market Fund, Fidelity Contrafund and Fidelity Investment Grade Bond Fund are reported at current redemption value. The United Industrial Corporation Common Stock is reported at market value, based on published market prices. The change in the difference between cost and market value is reflected in the statements of changes in net assets available for plan benefits as net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the aggregate fair value of investments. The net realized gain or loss on investments is the difference between the proceeds and the specific cost of the investments. Rollover contributions represent transfers from other qualified retirement plans. Administrative expenses associated with the Plan, including the amount paid to Fidelity Management Trust Co. for acting as custodian of the investments of the Plan, were paid by the Company in 1994 and 1993. 2. Description of the Plan The UIC 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") is a defined contribution plan. The purpose of the Plan is to encourage employees to save regularly and to provide additional funds upon retirement. All contributions are made by employees through payroll deductions and submitted to Fidelity Management Trust Company Cash Reserve Fund, then subsequently deposited in the investment option account(s) selected by the employee. United Industrial Corporation (the "Company") is the named fiduciary which controls and manages the operations of the Plan and acts as Administrator. All employees aged 21 or more who have completed six months of continuous employment and worked over 1000 hours with the Company (including its participating subsidiaries) are eligible to participate in the Plan. Participating employees contribute to the Plan through payroll deductions in amounts ranging from 2% to 15% of their earnings up to a limit of $9,240 and $8,994 for 1994 and 1993, respectively. Contributions to the Plan are invested in the available investment options in accordance with the participants' elections. All employee contributions to the Plan are immediately vested. The Company has the right to terminate the Plan at any time. In the event of a termination, the participants accounts shall be distributed to them in cash or in property or in any combination of cash and property. Information about the Plan and the vesting and benefit provisions is contained in the Summary Plan Description of the UIC 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan. Copies are available from the Human Resources Department of the Company. UIC 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 3.

The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan Administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code. Therefore, they believe that the Plan was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of the financial statement date.
