Such Form 8-K was filed without the financial statements and pro forma financial information required by rule 3-05 and Article 11 of Regulation S-X, as it was impractical to do so at that time. This Current Report on Form 8-K/A provides such required information. (a) Financial Statements of the Business Acquired Following, as Exhibit 7(a), are the audited consolidated balance sheets of Care Free as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 and the related statements of earnings, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997.

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of Alpine Industries, Inc. ("Alpine"), a wholly owned consolidated subsidiary of CFA Holding Company, for the year ended December 31, 1995, which statements reflect total revenues constituting 38% of the related consolidated total for that year. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts for Alpine for the year ended December 31, 1995, is based solely on the report of such other auditors. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 and the report of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 1997, and 1996 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. /S/ DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP Lansing, Michigan February 27, 1998 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT Board of Directors Alpine Industries, Inc.

CFA HOLDING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ---------------------------------------------- YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996 AND 1995 (IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT SHARE AMOUNTS) 1. CORPORATE STRUCTURE AND GENERAL CFA Holding Company ("CFA") was incorporated on January 10, 1992. Previously, CFA had two wholly owned subsidiaries, CFBT, Inc. ("CFBT") and AIBT, Inc. ("AIBT"). CFBT and AIBT were the parent companies of Care Free Aluminum Products, Inc. ("Care Free") and its wholly owned subsidiary Ultra Building Systems, Inc. ("Ultra"), and Alpine Industries, Inc. ("Alpine"), respectively, each of which were wholly owned by their respective parent company. During 1996, CFBT and AIBT, which were nonoperating holding companies, were dissolved and their assets and liabilities merged into CFA which then became the parent company to Care Free and Alpine. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CFA and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. CFA manufactures and sells vinyl windows and doors. CFA's customers include home improvement dealers, lumber yards, distributors, mass merchandisers, residential contractors, and the manufactured housing industry. Products are sold to customers located throughout the United States. Credit sales are typically not collateralized by the customer. Sales to one major customer for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 accounted for approximately 18%, 17% and 20%, respectively, of CFA's total sales. Accounts receivable from this customer were approximately $632, $101 and $361 at December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS consist of cash and overnight deposits. INVENTORIES are stated at the lower of cost or market. Care Free determines cost primarily on a last-in, first-out (LIFO) method, while Alpine and Ultra use a first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Approximately 32% and 35% at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, of the consolidated inventory is determined by the LIFO method. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT acquired at the date of the purchases of the CFA subsidiaries were recorded at their then-estimated fair value. All other acquisitions of property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are stated at cost and amortized over the shorter of their respective lease term or their estimated useful life. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred whereas major additions are capitalized. TAXES ON INCOME are provided based upon pre-tax income for financial statement purposes. As required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (see Note 7), deferred taxes are provided using the liability method. CFA and its consolidated subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. Federal income tax expense is allocated to each subsidiary as if separate returns were filed. PURCHASE COST IN EXCESS OF NET ASSETS ACQUIRED is being amortized on a straight-line basis primarily over fifteen to twenty-five years. DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS are being amortized over the terms of the related financing agreements on a straight-line basis. THE NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT with one of the previous owners of Care Free was being amortized over five years. The agreement became fully amortized in 1997. ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - Management has determined that the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of notes payable to bank and lines of credit approximate the carrying amount since these notes bear interest at rates that adjust based upon market indexes. It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of notes payable to BT Capital Partners, Inc. and former shareholders due to these notes being subordinated and unsecured. It is also not practicable to estimate the fair value of the letters of credit which provide collateral for estimated insurance claims payable due to the contingent nature of these claims. LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF - Effective January 1, 1996, CFA adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." This Statement establishes accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used and long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. The initial adoption of this new accounting standard did not have a material effect on CFA's consolidated operating results or financial position. RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1995 and 1996 financial statements to conform to the classifications used in 1997. 3. ACQUISITIONS On January 22, 1997, Alpine executed an asset purchase transaction to acquire California Windows ("California") of Walnut, California for a total purchase price of $1,132 (exclusive of acquisition costs of approximately $162). The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed (accounts and retention receivables, $443; inventory, $482; property, plant, and equipment, $180; certain other assets, $112; and trade payables and accrued expenses of $1,089) based on their respective fair values and the amount paid in excess of the net assets acquired, totaling $1,166, was recorded as goodwill. The acquisition was partially financed through the use of Alpine's operating cash and credit line. On May 21, 1997, Ultra executed an asset purchase transaction to acquire Windowman ("Windowman") of Pottsville, Pennsylvania for a total purchase price of $2,446. The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase. The acquisition was partially financed through the use of Ultra's operating cash and credit line and includes future payments, aggregating up to $1.8 million, based on sales volumes of Windowman products in each of the three years subsequent to the acquisition. Such future payments have been included in the purchase price recorded in the December 31, 1997 financial statements and as a contingent payable based upon Ultra's assessment of the likelihood of achieving the requisite sales volume required for such contingent consideration. The following unaudited pro-forma information sets forth the results of the Company's operation as though the purchase of California and Windowman had been made at the beginning of 1996: 1997 1996 Revenues $138,126 $137,893 Net income 4,115 1,773 On August 1, 1995, Care Free executed a stock purchase transaction to acquire 100% of the outstanding stock of Ultra for a total purchase price of $6,551 (exclusive of acquisition costs of approximately $226). The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed (cash, $164; accounts and notes receivable, $1,872; inventory, $2,270; property, plant and equipment, $2,050; deferred tax asset, $306 and certain other assets, $23; trade payables and accrued expenses of $3,462) based on their respective fair values. Accordingly, the year end balance sheet of Ultra is included in the consolidated balance sheet of Care Free at December 31, 1995 and Ultra's operating results for the period from August 1, 1995 through December 31, 1995 are included in Care Free's consolidated statement of earnings for the year ended December 31, 1995. The acquisition was partially financed through the use of Care Free's operating cash and credit lines, the issuance of $1,000 note payable to former owners of Ultra, and $1,000 of additional bank financing. 4. INVENTORIES Inventories consist of the following at December 31: 1997 1996 First-in, first-out (FIFO) basis: Finished products $1,465 $ 2,656 Raw materials 6,198 8,362 Work in process 364 484 ------ ------- 8,027 11,502 LIFO reserve 197 197 ------ ------- Recorded basis $8,224 $11,699 ====== ======= Earnings before taxes on income under the FIFO method would not have been different for the year ended December 31, 1997, and would have been $70 higher and $29 lower for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Care Free has a note receivable from an officer which is due in April 1999. Interest is due at an annual rate of 7-1/2%. The note was paid in full in January 1998. CFA also utilizes legal counsel from a law firm in which certain partners are minority shareholders of CFA through a partnership. Fees paid to this law firm were $191, $137 and $58 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Additionally, the Company's principal debt financing is provided by BT Capital Partners, Inc., a shareholder of the Company, and KeyBank, the parent of a shareholder. Total interest paid to these related parties was $3,232, $3,242, and $2,937 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. 6. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt at December 31 is summarized as follows: 1997 1996 Revolving credit advances maturing December 30, 2001 $11,285 $15,943 Note payable, due in quarterly installments of $25 plus interest at 10% through December 31, 2000 300 400 Note payable due in quarterly installments of $125 plus interest at 9% commencing October 21, 1996 through August 1, 1998 The note was settled in full in 1997. 871 Subordinated notes payable to BT Capital Partners, Inc., $2,000 due on January 31, 1998 and 1999. Interest payable quarterly at 14%; unsecured 4,000 4,000 Subordinated notes payable to BT Capital Partners, Inc., $3,855 due on March 16, 1999 and $3,854 due on March 16, 2000. Interest payable quarterly at 13.5%; unsecured 7,709 7,709 ------- ------- Total debt 23,294 28,923 Less current portion 2,100 600 ------- ------- Total $21,194 $28,323 ======= ======= On December 19, 1996, CFA executed a revolving credit facility and security agreement with its primary lender, KeyBank (formerly Society National Bank). Under the terms of this new agreement, CFA has a revolving credit facility of $28,000 and a Capital Expenditure ("CapEx") line of credit facility of $6,000. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility accrue interest at an annual rate of the LIBOR plus a range of 2.125 to 3.125 basis points or the bank's prime rate plus a range of 0 to .625 basis points. The current borrowing is at prime plus .125 basis points. The prime rate was 8.5% and 8.25 % at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The interest rate method is selected by CFA and is subject to certain adjustments based on the financial performance of CFA. Borrowings under the CapEx line of credit accrue interest at the same rates as the revolving credit facility. There are no amounts outstanding under the CapEx line of credit facility. The agreement provides for revolving credit advances equal to 85% of eligible accounts receivable plus 50% of eligible inventory up to a cap of $6.5 million and a $13 million reducing term component (reducing by $500 per quarter commencing April 1, 1997). The agreement matures on December 30, 2001 and accordingly, all revolving credit advances as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 have been classified as long term. In 1996, CFA borrowed a total of $15,943 under the revolving credit facility to repay the outstanding balance of the previous revolving credit facility, the capital expenditures line of credit, and all other notes payable to the bank. CFA must pay .25% annual commitment fee on the unused average daily availability of the two facilities and a monthly collateral-monitoring fee of $1 per month. On January 17, 1997, CFA entered into an interest rate swap arrangement with KeyBank. The swap establishes a fixed rate of 6.32% on the LIBOR rate on the CFA credit facility. This swap has a notional amount of $10,000 and expires on January 17, 1999. On January 27, 1998, CFA terminated this swap arrangement for $101. This amount was accrued at December 31, 1997. CFA uses settlement accounting such that the effect of the interest rate differential between the notes payable and the interest rate swaps is recognized over the life of the agreements as payments are made. The revolving credit facility and CapEx line of credit facility of CFA with KeyBank is collateralized by substantially all its assets. The KeyBank agreements, as well as the BT Capital Partners, Inc. notes payable, contain certain restrictive covenants which require among other things, that CFA maintains certain net worth, cash flow, and debt to net worth amounts. CFA is also restricted as to the payment of dividends and the purchase of property and equipment. CFA was in compliance with these covenants at December 31, 1997 and 1996. Maturities on long-term debt are as follows: 1998 - $2,100; 1999 - $7,955; 2000 - - $5,954; 2001 - $8,052. In conjunction with the acquisition of CFA by Reliant Building Products, Inc. in January 1998 (see Note 12), all December 31, 1997 outstanding debt was retired. 7. TAXES ON INCOME The provision for income taxes is comprised of the following as of December 31: 1997 1996 1995 Current $1,467 $ 830 $ 354 Deferred 180 282 634 ------ ------ ----- Total $1,647 $1,112 $ 988 ====== ====== ===== The consolidated income tax provision differs from the amount computed on pretax income using the U.S. statutory income tax rate for the years ended December 31 for the following reasons: 1997 1996 1995 --------------------- -------------------- --------------------- AMOUNT PERCENTAGE AMOUNT PERCENTAGE AMOUNT PERCENTAGE Taxes computed at statutory rate $ 1,918 34.00 % $ 874 34.00 % $ 950 34.00 % Increase (decrease) in income taxes resulting from: State income taxes 123 2.18 29 1.13 22 0.79 Goodwill amortization 67 1.18 38 1.48 (25) (0.89) Non-deductible expenses 64 1.13 35 1.36 26 0.93 IRS settlements 100 3.89 Reversal of income tax accruals (250) (4.43) Acquired tax benefits and basis differences (252) (4.46) Other (23) (0.41) 36 1.40 15 0.54 -------- ----------- ------- ----------- -------- ----------- $ 1,647 29.19 % $ 1,112 43.26 % $ 988 35.37 % ======== =========== ======= =========== ======== =========== Major components of the CFA's deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 are as follows: 1997 1996 Current: Allowance for doubtful accounts $ 536 $ 381 Accrued expenses 536 438 Inventory reserves 73 80 Tax LIFO reserve greater than book LIFO reserve (540) (540) Warranty reserve 150 34 Other (112) -------- -------- $ 755 $ 281 ======== ======== Noncurrent: Tax depreciation over book depreciation $(1,964) $(1,763) Book goodwill amortization over (under) tax amortization (258) 2 Other (51) -------- -------- $(2,273) $(1,761) ======== ======== 8. DISCRETIONARY PROFIT-SHARING AND 401(K) PLAN Both Care Free and Alpine have profit sharing and 401(k) plans covering substantially all employees with more than one year's service at each respective location. Participants may contribute a portion of their annual salary to the plan (up to 15% of compensation under the Care Free plan and up to 19% under the Alpine plan), subject to limitations defined in the respective plan documents as well as Internal Revenue Service limitations. The Alpine plan also provides a company matching contribution of the lesser of 25% of the employee's contribution or 1% of the employee's annual salary, which approximated $47, $45 and $44 during 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. In addition, both plans provide for company profit sharing contributions at the discretion of their Board of Directors. A provision of $237, $125 and $110 was recorded for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, for Care Free. 9. COMMON STOCK Common stock authorized, issued and outstanding as of December 31, 1997 and activity for the year is summarized as follows: SHARES ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING --------------- SHARES BEGINNING STOCK END OF AUTHORIZED OF YEAR ISSUED YEAR Class A 1,000 798 8 806 Class B 500 Class C 250 227 227 Class D 125 121 121 Class E 500 ---------- --------- ------ ------ 2,375 1,146 8 1,154 ========== ========= ====== ====== There were no changes in the amount of common stock issued and outstanding for the years ended 1996 and 1995. The Class A and Class D stockholders are identical as to rights. The Class A and Class D stockholders have a preference over the Class B, C and E stockholders upon any distribution by CFA, to the extent that the Class A and Class D stockholders receive all distributions up to their initial capital contributions, after which distributions are divided equally among all stockholders on a per share basis. CFA issued to the holders of the 14% notes, warrants for the purchase of up to 265 shares of Class B common stock for an aggregate price of $13 (see Note 6). Warrants may be exercised at a price of $2 per warrant share anytime through January 31, 2001. In addition, during 1994, CFA issued to the holders of the 13.5% notes, warrants for the purchase of up to 169 shares of Class B common stock for a nominal price (see Note 6). These warrants may be exercised at a price of $4 per warrant share anytime through March 16, 2003. Both warrant issues may be exercised upon the sale of the Company. CFA has a stockholder's agreement that generally restricts the transfer of shares and provides for first refusal and co-sale rights, all as specified in the agreement. The stockholder's agreement also sets forth specific rights of CFA to repurchase shares of its stock held by certain employees who are also stockholders of CFA. Repurchase rights and obligations are set forth in the agreement. The repurchase price is based on a specified formula and is payable in cash or cash and notes depending upon the circumstances. The Company has a stock incentive plan whereby key employees of the Company may receive awards of stock options. A maximum of 81 shares of stock may be issued under this plan. As allowed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (FAS 123), the Company follows APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its plan. The following table summarizes stock option activity during the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995. WEIGHTED WEIGHTED AVERAGE AVERAGE RANGE OF EXERCISE FAIR EXERCISE SHARES PRICE VALUE PRICE Balance at January 1, 1995 16.00 $ 11.3 $ 11.3 No activity during the period Balance at December 31, 1995 16.00 11.3 11.3 Options granted 21.53 7.5 $ 2.7 Options exercised (8.15) 7.8 ------- Balance at December 31, 1996 29.38 9.4 6.2 - 11.3 Options granted 16.62 3.3 5.8 Options canceled (5.23) 6.5 ------- Balance at December 31, 1997 40.77 7.3 3.3 - 11.3 As required by FAS 123, the Company has determined the pro-forma information as if the Company had accounted for stock options granted since January 1, 1995, under the fair value method of FAS 123. The Black-Scholes option pricing model was used with the following weighted average assumptions for 1997 and 1996: risk free interest rates of 5.5% and 6%, and a weighted average life of 5 years for all periods presented. The pro-forma effect of these options on net earnings was to decrease earnings by $14 and $60 in 1997 and 1996, respectively. Additionally, in 1997 the Company recorded compensation expense of $83 relative to such options. 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES At December 31, 1997, future minimum rental payments under noncancelable operating leases for certain transportation, manufacturing, and office equipment are as follows: 1998 - $1,079, 1999 - $890, 2000 - $652, 2001 - $366, 2002 - $182, Thereafter - $114. Leases for certain transportation equipment require monthly payments plus additional amounts based on mileage through February 2000. Contingent rental amounts based on vehicle mileage totaled $53, $84 and $77 for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. At December 31, 1997, future minimum rental payments under noncancelable operating leases, which relate to real estate with initial or remaining terms of more than one year, are as follows: 1998 - $1,270; 1999 - $1,080; 2000 - $1,083; 2001 - $1,083; 2002 - $1,055; Thereafter - $5,647. Total rent expense for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 amounted to $3,124, $2,142, and $1,247, respectively. 11. MANAGEMENT AND CONSULTING AGREEMENTS Care Free and Alpine entered into acquisition and management agreements with an entity controlled by one of CFA's stockholders. During 1996 the Care Free agreements collectively provided for management fees of $21 per month and an incentive fee based on operating results, not to exceed $150 annually. The incentive fee for 1996 and 1995 was $150. In accordance with its agreement Alpine paid this same entity $300 in 1996 and 1995. In December 1996 one agreement replaced the previous agreements and provided for management fees of $700 for 1997. These management fees are paid to the affiliated entity in return for administrative, strategic planning, recruiting, asset management and similar other services provided to Care Free, Alpine, and CFA. 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On December 17, 1997, CFA entered into a stock purchase agreement with Reliant Building Products, Inc. of Dallas, Texas to sell 100% of the outstanding stock of CFA for a total purchase price of $120,918. The transaction was consummated on January 28, 1998. With respect to this transaction, substantially all outstanding debt and accrued interest as of this date was paid and the outstanding interest swap agreement terminated. The management and consulting agreements described in Note 11 were also terminated. Exhibit 7(b) Reliant Building Products, Inc. Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements The following unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed balance sheet has been prepared by taking the December 26, 1997 consolidated balance sheet of Reliant Building Products, Inc. (the "Company") and the December 31, 1997 consolidated balance sheet of CFA Holding Company ("Care Free" or "CFA") and giving effect to the acquisition on January 28, 1998 of all of the common stock of Care Free (the "Acquisition") by the Company as if it occurred as of December 26, 1997 including the related incurrence of debt and cash contribution from owners of the Company. The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed balance sheet has been prepared for informational purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of the financial condition that necessarily would have resulted had the Acquisition taken place at December 26, 1997. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statement of operations for the year ended March 28, 1997 has been prepared by taking the March 28, 1997 consolidated statement of operations of the Company and the December 31, 1996 consolidated statement of operations of Care Free and giving effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred as of March 30, 1996. The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statement of operations for the nine months ended December 26, 1997 has been prepared by taking the December 26, 1997 statement of operations of the Company (representing Company and Predecessor periods and excluding an extraordinary loss of $715,000 recognized by the Company in such period) and the September 30, 1997 statement of operations of Care Free and giving effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred as of March 29, 1997. The revenues and results of operations included in the following unaudited pro forma condensed statements of operations are not considered necessarily to be indicative of anticipated results of operations for periods subsequent to the transaction, nor are they considered necessarily to be indicative of the results of operations for the periods specified had the transaction actually been completed at the beginning of each respective period. These financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company, and related notes thereto (which are included in the Form S-4 Amendment no. 2 filed on September 3, 1997, the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended December 26, 1997, the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 6, 1998 (all filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission)), and the consolidated financial statements of Care Free and related notes thereto, included herewith. The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statements of operations reflect certain cost savings that management has identified related to elimination of duplicate costs for corporate and functional facilities as well as contractual raw material purchase agreements. However, the unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statements of operations do not reflect certain additional cost savings and synergies that management has identified related to plant productivity and product rationalization. The adjustments below were prepared based on data currently available and in some cases are based on estimates or approximations. It is possible that the actual amounts to be recorded may have an impact on the results of operations and the balance sheet different from that reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed financial statements. It is therefore possible that the entries presented below will not be the amounts actually recorded at the closing date. RELIANT BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC.

(the "Predecessor") common stock purchase by the current shareholders of the Company (the "Transaction"), the proceeds from the senior subordinated notes (the "Notes") issued in conjunction therewith, and the closure of the Company's Houston manufacturing facility. Such pro forma adjustments reflect the Transaction as if it occurred on March 30, 1996, including the application of "push-down accounting" as of that date. (a) Reflects the elimination of the historical results of operations for the Company's Houston manufacturing facility, closed in connection with the Transaction. The elimination of the historical cost of products sold includes $188 historical depreciation expense recorded for the Company's Houston manufacturing facility for the year ended March 28, 1997. (b) Reflects decrease in depreciation as a result of extending the remaining useful lives of certain property, plant and equipment. These remaining useful lives have been revised due to the fact that such property, plant and equipment has historically not been subject to technological change and is expected to be used over such revised remaining useful lives. Management does not expect such extension to result in a material increase over historical repair and maintenance expense. (c) Reflects net increase in amortization resulting from the additional goodwill created as a result of the Transaction. A life of 40 years has been assigned to goodwill. (d) Reflects net increase in interest expense resulting from the Transaction and financing as follows: FISCAL NINE MONTHS YEAR ENDED ENDED MARCH 28, 1997 DECEMBER 26, 1997 ---------------- ------------------- Elimination of historical interest expense related to debt that was repaid as a result of the Notes offering $ (5,264) $ (579) Interest resulting from the issuance of the Notes at 10.875% 7,613 878 Amortization of the $2,600 of debt issuance costs related to Notes and senior credit facility 393 45 Line of credit fees related to the senior credit facility 125 14 ---------------- ------------------- $ 2,867 $ 358 ================ =================== (e) Represents management fees charged to the Predecessor by the former owners that will cease with the Transaction.

CARE FREE PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS (h) Represent the raw material cost savings from contractual purchase agreements available to the Company that will be used to supply Care Free requirements. (i) Represents increased depreciation from the step-up to fair market value of property, plant and equipment. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment has been calculated on a straight line basis over lives ranging from 2 to 20 years. (j) Reflects the net increase in amortization resulting from the additional intangible assets (calculated over 40 years) created as a result of the Acquisition. (k) Reflects the elimination of duplicate corporate expenses and management fees charged to Care Free by its former owners that ended with the Acquisition.

The Company's aluminum joint venture has resumed operations at production levels similar to those prior to the fire. The Company defines EBITDA as income from operations before depreciation and amortization. The Company includes information concerning EBITDA because it is used by certain investors as a measure of the Company's ability to service debt. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or cash flows from operating activities presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of a company's profitability or liquidity.
