Item 2.   Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

        On July 10, 1997, The Development Bank of Singapore Limited, one of the
Company's and its subsidiaries largest creditors ("DBS"), appointed a Receiver
and Manager to liquidate the assets of Microelectronic Packaging (S) Pte. Ltd.
("MPS"), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Microelectronic Packaging, Inc.
(the "Company" or "MPI"). DBS exercised its option to appoint a receiver under
the terms of a Deed of Debenture dated November 27, 1984 (as amended) between
DBS and MPS.

        On July 11, 1997, the Receiver, with the approval of the Company, sold
substantially all of MPS's inventory for $995,000 to Micropac Technology Pte.
Ltd. ("Micropac"). The specialized business of MPS and the inability of
Receivers and Managers to provide certification of conformance, reliability and
warranty led MPS management to conclude that the market value of MPS' inventory
to any other party is minimal, and that the offer of $995,000 was very
reasonable. Micropac is a newly-formed business unit of Innoventure (S) Pte.
Ltd. ("Innoventure"), an Indonesian company. Innoventure has partially
manufactured the ceramic packages sold by MPS and is not affiliated with MPI or
its subsidiaries or any officer or director thereof. MPI and Micropac are
negotiating a profit sharing or similar agreement in consideration for MPI's
assisting Micropac in establishing client/customer relationships and providing
technical assistance and training. The Company anticipates that the receiver
will complete the liquidation of MPS within the next several months. The Company
currently expects that DBS will be fully repaid by this process, thus, avoiding
the potential of DBS calling on MPI's guarantee of MPS's obligations to DBS.
There can be no assurance that such debt will be fully paid.

        MPS has approximately $9,700,000 of customer loans which have been
guaranteed by MPI and are not expected to be extinguished through the
liquidation of MPS. As a result, these loans have been transferred to MPI and
are included in the "Pro Forma Consolidated" figures of the March 31, 1997
balance sheet.

        As of July 10, 1997, all of MPS's employees were terminated. A
substantial portion of these employees were immediately hired by Micropac.

        UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Introduction:

The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information
is presented to illustrate the financial statement effect of the liquidation, as
described in Item 2 of this Form 8-K, of MPS, which was engaged in the
development of pressed ceramic packaging, and should be read in conjunction with
the historical financial statements of MPI contained in its Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996 and its Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1997.

The accompanying Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet
adjusts the historical condensed consolidated balance sheet of MPI at March 31,
1997, as if the liquidation had occurred as of that date.

The accompanying Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of
Operations for the year ended December 31, 1996 adjusts the results of
operations of MPI for the year ended December 31, 1996 as if the liquidation had
occurred as of the first day of that period. The accompanying Unaudited Pro
Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 adjusts the results of operations of MPI for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 assuming a continuation of the Unaudited Pro Forma
Condensed Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 1996.

The accompanying Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial
Information and this description have been included as required by the rules of
the Securities and Exchange Commission and are provided for illustrative
purposes only. The pro forma financial information does not purport to be
indicative of the results which would have been obtained if MPI's liquidation of
MPS had been effected on the date or dates indicated or which may be obtained in
the future.
