UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements as of September 30, 1998, for the year ended December 31, 1997, for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and the twelve months ended September 30, 1998 ("the Pro Forma Financial Statements") have been derived by the application of pro forma adjustments to the combination of the historical financial statements of each of Holmes Products Corp. ("Holmes") and The Rival Company ("Rival"). The pro forma combined condensed balance sheet assumes that the Transactions (as defined below) took place September 30, 1998 and combines Holmes' unaudited September 30, 1998 balance sheet and Rival's unaudited September 30, 1998 balance sheet. The pro forma combined condensed statements of operations assume that the Transactions and the 1997 Transactions (as defined below) took place as of January 1, 1997 and combine Holmes' statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997, unaudited nine months ended September 30, 1998 and the unaudited twelve months ended September 30, 1998 and Rival's unaudited statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997, unaudited nine months ended September 30, 1998 and unaudited twelve months ended September 30, 1998, respectively. The pro forma combined condensed statements of operations also reflect employment and management agreements entered into in conjunction with the 1997 Transactions. The Pro Forma Financial Statements do not purport to represent what Holmes' financial position or results of operations would have actually been had the Transactions and the 1997 Transactions in fact occurred on such dates, or to project results of operations for any future period. The Pro Forma Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of each of Holmes and Rival, including the notes thereto. The "1997 Transactions" consist of (1) the November 1997 leveraged recapitalization of Holmes in which affiliates of Berkshire Partners, LLC, certain members of Holmes senior management and certain other investors made an equity investment in Holmes, the proceeds of which, together with the proceeds of a $105 million offering of Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Existing Notes"), borrowings under Holmes' existing credit facility (the "Existing Credit Facility") and available cash, were used to redeem a portion of the common stock held by Holmes' prior majority owner, to repay certain outstanding indebtedness and to pay fees and expenses of the recapitalization; and (2) the May and June 1997 repurchase by Holmes of the 30% minority interest held by certain stockholders in one of Holmes' subsidiaries for a total of $900,000. The "Transactions" consist of the issuance by Holmes of $31,250,000 principal amount of new Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes"), the receipt of the proceeds from the sale of $50,000,000 of Holmes' common stock (the "Equity Commitment"), initial borrowings under Holmes' new $325,000,000 senior credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), the acquisition of Rival by Holmes (the "Acquisition"), the refinancing of Rival's existing indebtedness, the refinancing of outstanding borrowings under the Existing Credit Facility and the payment of fees and expenses of the Transactions.

Rival operates on a June 30 fiscal year end. Accordingly, Rival's twelve month period ended December 31, 1997 has been derived by combining the unaudited results for the quarters ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31, 1997. Rival's nine month period ended September 30,1998 has been derived by combining the unaudited results for the quarters ended March 31, June 30, and September 30, 1998. Rival's twelve month period ended September 30, 1998 has been derived by combining the unaudited results for the quarters ended December 31, 1997, March 31, June 30, and September 30, 1998.

This adjustment reflects the difference between the historical compensation expense recorded for these executives and the contractual amounts reflected in the employment agreements, computed as the specified base compensation plus the maximum amount of annual performance bonus specified in the agreements. Included in historical compensation expense is approximately $6,901 for the year ended December 31, 1997 and $6,838 for the period October 1, 1997 to November 26, 1997 of incremental compensation paid under the terms of previous agreements as a result of the 1997 Transactions.

Additionally this adjustment includes the elimination of $1,447 of income tax expense associated with the limitation on deductibility of interest expense paid on the previous credit facility and affiliated borrowings, which limitation primarily resulted from the incremental bonuses described above. (7) In May and June 1997, Holmes repurchased the shares held by the 30% minority stockholders in one of Holmes' subsidiaries for a total of $900. The adjustment reflects the elimination of minority interest in net income of majority-owned subsidiaries.
