PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS. OVERVIEW. Transcisco Industries, Inc. ("the Registrant " or "the Company") was incorporated in California in 1972 under the name PLM Group. It was reincorporated in Delaware in 1985, as PLM Companies, Inc., and in 1988, its name was changed to Transcisco Industries, Inc. The Company is a holding Company whose primary lines of business include: (1) nationwide railcar maintenance through TRANSCISCO RAIL SERVICES COMPANY, which operates 12 railcar repair and maintenance facilities from Georgia to Montana; (2) specialty railcar leasing management and maintenance services through TRANSCISCO LEASING COMPANY which provides innovative railcar services for large utilities, Class I railroads and others; and, (3) international rail transportation services through TRANSCISCO TRADING COMPANY, the 20% shareholder of SovFinAmTrans (SFAT), Russia's leading privately held rail transportation firm; SFAT's 5,400 tankcar fleet is used to transport petroleum and petrochemicals for export. On April 14, 1994, the Board of Directors of Transcisco Industries, Inc. voted to change the Company's fiscal year to March 31. The Company previously reported results of operations on a calendar year basis. A Form 8-K was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 1994, to reflect the change in fiscal years. TRANSCISCO RAIL SERVICES COMPANY. Transcisco Rail Services Company ("TRS") is one of the largest railcar maintenance organizations in the United States, with more than 15,000 privately owned railcars under maintenance contracts. TRS operates a full-service network of six major maintenance facilities capable of repairing all types of railcars at: Alliance, Nebraska; Miles City, Montana; Waycross, Georgia; Sioux City, Iowa; Bill, Wyoming; and Rock Springs, Wyoming. In addition, TRS operates six "mobile" or "mini" shops, which perform repairs and maintenance, generally at customers' plant sites. TRS's marketing offices are in Chicago and its administrative offices are in San Francisco. TRANSCISCO LEASING COMPANY. Transcisco Leasing Company ("TLC"), formed in August 1990, acts as an intermediary in the railcar leasing, management and maintenance market, drawing on Transcisco's established leadership position in coal and other railcar maintenance. TLC manages groups of railcars on a full-service basis, including fleet administration, lease financing, and maintenance. Prompted by the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990, coal- burning utilities in the midwestern and eastern U.S. increasingly burn low-sulphur coal. The Powder River Basin in Wyoming is a primary source of this low-sulfur coal and the TRS maintenance shops surrounding the basin are well-positioned to service coal carrying unit-trains. Because aluminum cars weigh less and carry more coal, theyhave become the railcar of choice for utilities hauling coal from the Powder River Basin. Increasingly, utilities have replaced their steel cars with aluminum cars. TLC's objective is to capitalize on these trends and others by managing railcar fleets for railroads, utilities and others hauling coal and other commodities. At March 31, 1995, TLC had 5,314 cars covered by contracts for maintenance, management and leasing services. Since March, this number has grown to approximately 8,000 cars. The terms of TLC's contracts range from 1 to 20 years. TRANSCISCO TRADING COMPANY. Transcisco Trading Company ("TTC") was formed in 1989 to help organize and serve as a shareholder in SovFinAmTrans (SFAT). Initially Russia's first railcar leasing company, SFAT has become a full service transportation management company which owns and manages more than 5,400 railroad tankcars used to export petroleum and petrochemicals. SFAT's original shareholders included the Russian Ministry of Rails (40%), the Russian Ministry of Petrochemicals (25%), TTC (20%) and HAKA OY - - a major Finnish construction company (15%). In April 1994, Haka declared bankruptcy and SFAT bought back its shares. Since its creation in 1989, SFAT's hard currency profits have increased each year. For the fiscal year ended 1994, SFAT reported unaudited revenues of approximately $28 million and operating earnings before nonrecurring charges of approximately $13 million. SFAT's customer base includes major Russian oil refineries and petrochemical companies as well as some western petroleum and petrochemical trading companies. SFAT's full service transportation services include freight forwarding, computerized tracking, railcar maintenance and assembly. SFAT has subsidiaries in Finland, Estonia, Russia, Cyprus and Gibraltar. Approximately 1,500 of SFAT's 5,400 car fleet have been fitted with Transcisco's proprietary Uni-Temp heating system, a patented technology which enhances the performance of rail tank cars by expediting the unloading process. The licensing of the Uni-Temp heating system is covered through several agreements, all of which expire in approximately seven years. Pursuant to an agreement with the inventor of Uni-Temp, TTC is the exclusive worldwide licensee for the Uni-Temp technology. TTC, in turn, has entered into a sub- licensing agreement with Finnish American Rail Services OY (FARS), a Finnish firm created by several former Haka employees (this agreement replaces a similar agreement between Haka and Transcisco terminated because of Haka's bankruptcy). FARS and TTC have jointly entered into an April 1994 Uni-Temp sub-licensing agreement with SFAT. In fiscal 1995, TTC earned approximately $1.3 million in revenues from licensing and servicing its Uni-Temp technology. Additionally, TTC earned about $50,000 in dividends from SFAT during the year.

MARKETING, CUSTOMERS AND COMPETITION. TRS's maintenance services are provided for all types of railcars. The majority of this business is with long-standing customers, primarily Fortune 500 companies and utilities. Competition within the railcar maintenance industry varies by region and by type of railcar. About 250 repair and maintenance facilities are owned by about 130 companies. Location, price, quality, turnaround time, and service levels are primary competitive factors. TRS believes it is one of the largest independent companies offering maintenance, repair, and cleaning services for privately- owned railcars. TLC's services include fleet administration, railcar marketing, lease financing, and maintenance. TLC sells primarily to utilities, major railroads, other shippers, and financial institutions. Currently, TLC has management contracts and leases with approximately 15 companies, covering approximately 8,000 railcars. Although various other companies offer elements of TLC's line of services, the Company believes TLC's combination of services and expertise is unique within the railroad industry. Fleet management expertise and price are important factors in the development and continuing profitability of TLC's business. TTC's proprietary Uni-Temp technology is a system of heat panels installed in tank cars to expedite unloading. The Company believes that this technology has substantial operating advantages over competing alter- natives. Among its principal applications is in tankcars hauling petroleum and petrochemicals in Russia. SFAT, a company 20% owned by TTC, utilizes the technology to enable customers faster delivery of petroleum products. FORMER INTEREST IN PLMI. Prior to November 1993, in addition to its operating businesses, the Company owned approximately 32% of the outstanding stock of PLM International, Inc. ("PLMI"), and a $5 million PLMI note. As a result of Transcisco's emergence from bankruptcy on November 3, 1993, the Company exchanged all of the PLMI stock and 60% of the PLMI note for the extinguishment of $16.3 million of Transcisco's subordinated debt. Later, in October 1994, PLMI redeemed the remaining 40% interest in the promissory note for 90% of its face value. In accordance with the Chapter 11 reorganization plan, ("Plan of Reorganization" or "Plan") that $1.8 million of note redemption proceeds was paid directly to Transcisco's Class F Creditors (the unsecured creditors in the Company's Chapter 11 case). EMPLOYEES. At March 31, 1995, the Company had 304 full -time and part-time employees. None of the employees are subject to collective bargaining arrangements. The Company believes employee relations are good and it has never experienced a work stoppage. ITEM 2. PROPERTY. The Company's executive offices are located in leased premises at 601 California Street in San Francisco, California. The Company operates railcar repair facilities throughout the United States as described in Item 1, and believes its facilities are adequate for its present level of business. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. DANIELS ET AL V. PLM INTERNATIONAL, INC., ET AL. On November 23, 1987, Shirley B. Daniels and Barney and Rachel Milione instituted a purported class action, known as the "Daniels" case, in the Superior Court of California, County of San Francisco, against PLM International, Inc., Transcisco Industries, Inc., and various corporate and individual defendants. The action purported to arise out of the February 1988 Consolidation wherein the Company exchanged three of its subsidiaries in return for cash, a note receivable from PLM International, Inc. ("PLMI") and approximately 32% of PLMI's Common Stock. The Daniels' plaintiffs claimed that certain aspects of the Consolidation constituted a breach of alleged fiduciary duties owed by the defendants to the limited partners of the various limited partnerships which were a party to the transaction. The plaintiffs sought damages in an unspecified amount and attorneys' fees, costs of the suit, rescinding and invalidating the Consolidation, imposing a constructive trust on the shares of PLMI common stock received by the Company in connection with the Consolidation and such other relief as the court might have deemed appropriate. On September 21, 1990 Shirley B. Daniels and Barney and Rachel Milione instituted a second purported class action suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, against PLMI, the Company and various corporate and individual defendants. The plaintiffs claimed damages arising from alleged violations of the federal securities laws, namely Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") and Rule 10(b)-5 thereunder as to all defendants; and Section 2(a) of the Exchange Act, as to the Company and all individual defendants. The relief sought in this second Complaint was substantially similar to that sought in the first Daniels case brought in the state court and discussed above. The plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification, and by order dated October 9, 1990, the court granted the plaintiff's motion to certify the class. The action was originally set for trial on July 29, 1991; however, the trial date was continued a number of times, before the disputes were finally settled in July, 1993. Transcisco and the plaintiff's representatives agreed to settle all matters with Transcisco paying $750,000 to the plaintiffs over ten consecutive quarters. The Settlement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court and on November 4, 1993, the Company made its initial payment of $187,500 to the Daniels' claimants. From December 31, 1993 to March 31, 1995, the Company has paid an additional $375,000 to the Daniels' claimants leaving $187,500 to pay off the entire balance. As part of the Daniels' settlement, the Great American Insurance Company ("Great American") made a $2,650,000 payment to the Daniels' plaintiffs on behalf of Mark Hungerford (Transcisco's Chief Executive Officer at the time of the formation of PLMI). At the same time, Great American reserved its rights to sue Hungerford who was, in turn, indemnified by Transcisco. A Federal District Court had earlier ruled that Great American had the obligation to provide the coverage, but Great American appealed that ruling to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals which, in April 1995, ruled that federal courts have no jurisdiction in this matter. In the event that Great American later files suit in State Court and prevails, Great American may seek reimbursement from Mr. Hungerford (as an individual defendant in the Daniels' action). This in turn, could result in Mr. Hungerford making an indemnification claim against the Company (as a Class F Claimant) in whatever amount Mr. Hungerford is compelled to pay Great American. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITIES HOLDERS. At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company held on January 20, 1995, the shareholders of the Company elected George A. Tedesco and William E. Greenwood to serve as Class III directors. 6,427,136 votes were cast for the nominees and 900,952 votes were withheld. Following the meeting, the Board of Directors were comprised of George A. Tedesco, William E. Greenwood, Ottokarl F. Finsterwalder, Walter E. Hoadley, Eugene M. Armstrong , and Steven L. Pease. In addition, at the Annual Meeting the shareholders of the Company voted on the following matters: Abstentions Votes Votes or Broker For Against Non-Votes 1.

On August 11, 1993, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware, which was effective at 4:01 p.m. Eastern Time the same day. The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation was filed by order of the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to the Company's Joint Plan of Reorganization (the "Reorganization Plan" or "Plan"). On the effectiveness date of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the then outstanding 3,188,369 shares of Class A Common Stock and 1,358,960 shares of Class B Common Stock were reclassified into the one form of stock designated Common Stock. The provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation modified the rights of the former holders of the Company's Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (the new Common Stock holders). A description of the rights of holders of the new class of Common Stock is incorporated herein by reference to Item 1 "Description of Company's Securities to be Registered" in the Company's Form 8-A filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended on August 12, 1993. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value and 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.01 par value, (none of the preferred stock is currently outstanding as of March 31, 1995). A total of 5,609,961 shares of the Common Stock are currently issued and outstanding, which includes 478,726 treasury shares and 489,976 non-treasury shares issued into Escrow for the Class F Claimants. 750,000 shares of Common Stock are reserved for issuance under the Company' s Amended and Restated (1994) Employee Stock Option Plan (described in Item 11, Part F below). An additional 100,000 shares of Common Stock are reserved for issuance under the Company's Amended and Restated Directors' Stock Option Plan (described in Item 11, Part G, below). On March 30, 1995, the Board of Directors adopted a Stock Purchase Plan pursuant to which the Company may grant rights to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company to officers, consultants or employees of the Company. The Stock Purchase Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which determines the terms of each grant of Stock Purchase Rights. Subject to the rights of holders of Preferred Stock, the Holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends declared out of assets legally available therefore at such time and in such amounts as the Board of Directors may from time to time lawfully determine. Until December 31, 2000, or such earlier date as the Class F Claimants are paid in full as provided in the Plan of Reorganization (such date is defined as the "Release Date"), no dividends shall be paid on the Common Stock. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share held. The Common Stock is not entitled to conversion or preemptive rights and is not subject to redemption or assessment. Subject to the rights of holders of any outstanding Preferred Stock, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, any assets legally available for distribution to stockholders are to be distributed ratably to the holders of the Common Stock outstanding at that time. The Common Stock is fully paid and nonassessable. As provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, until the Release Date, no person may acquire Common Stock of the Company if after the acquisition the person beneficially owns 5% or more of the Company's outstanding Common Stock unless the Company's Board of Directors approves the acquisition. This restriction is to prevent a loss or limitation to the Company's net operating loss carryforward under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the impairment of the Company's ability to perform its obligations under the Plan of Reorganization. Any purported transferee of shares acquired in violation of this restriction will be deemed to have acted as agent on behalf of the Company in acquiring the shares and will be deemed to hold the shares in trust and on behalf and for the benefit of the Company and the transferee's purported interest in the shares will be void ab initio. The transferee has no right to receive dividends or other distributions with respect to the shares, and no right to vote the shares (and for purposes of the determination of any quorum at any meeting of stockholders, the shares are not entitled to vote on any matter). The transferee's sole right with respect to the shares is to receive, at the Company's sole and absolute discretion, consideration for the shares upon the resale of the shares as directed by the Company, as reduced by all expenses of the Company in connection with the sale plus any remaining amount of such proceeds that exceeds the amount paid by the transferee for the shares. Until the Release Date, no stockholder who at any time on or after June 18, 1993, has beneficially owned 5% or more of the Company's voting securities, nor any associate, affiliate, officer, director, or employee of such stockholder, may serve as an officer, employee, or consultant of the Company. An application for listing of the new Common Stock of the Company on the American Stock Exchange was filed with the American Stock Exchange, Inc. on August 9, 1993.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. On April 14, 1994, the Board of Directors voted to change the Company's fiscal year end from December 31, to March 31. The Company previously reported results of operations on a calendar year basis. In the following discussion, "1995" refers to the Company's fiscal 1995 year, (the twelve months ending March 31, 1995); "1993" refers to the fiscal (and calendar year) ending December 31, 1993; "1992" refers to the fiscal (and calendar year) ending December 31, 1992; and, "1991" refers to the fiscal (and calendar year) ending December 31, 1991. For the three month period, January 1 to March 31, 1994, results of operations are presented where appropriate. For a discussion and comparison of this three-month period in relation to the same period of 1993, the reader is referred to the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 1994. Recent Trends. Since 1992, the Company's Income from Continuing Operations before Reorganization Items, Equity and (Losses) of Affiliated Companies and Extraordinary Gain has declined as a result of higher interest expense. Interest expense increased because 1995 was the first full year (since entering bankruptcy) in which the Company began accruing interest expense on its restructured debts. In general, the Company's Income from Continuing Operations has shown improvement since 1991. This improvement has been due to increases in revenues and operating profits of Transcisco Leasing and Transcisco Trading, and reductions in corporate reorganization and overhead expenses associated with the Company's cost cutting programs. In 1995, Income from Continuing Operations was $571,000, compared with a loss of ($3,412,000) in 1993, a loss of ($4,632,000) in 1992, and a loss of ($6,301,000) in 1991. In the years 1991 through 1993, significant factors affected Net Income other than Income from Continuing Operations. These included: Losses from Discontinued Operations, Losses from Close-down of a Business Segment, and an Extraordinary Gain from Extinguishment of Debt. None of these items influenced Net Income in 1995, so that Income from Continuing Operations was equal to Net Income, in contrast to the prior fiscal years. Transcisco Rail Services (TRS). In 1995, TRS's revenues were $28,014,000, compared to revenues of $28,019,000 in 1993. Overall, TRS sales volume and prices did not change significantly in 1994 compared to 1993. Although 1995 revenues from general maintenance and repair were flat compared to 1993, revenues from retrofit and program work, which is performed on special groups of cars under pre-determined terms, increased 47% in 1995. At the same time, the volume of tankcar work declined in 1995 as a result of shippers' high demands for these cars. In 1995, TRS also earned no revenue from cost-per-mile customers since all cost- per-mile contracts expired in 1993 (cost-per-mile contracts allow customers to pay a flat fee for maintenance services based on mileage traveled by railcars covered by the contract). TRS net income was $452,000 in 1995, compared to $1,552,000 in 1993. The large decline in net income was caused primarily by high material costs, interest and overhead expenses. Material costs increased to $9.4 million in 1995 from $8.7 million in 1993 as a result of more material-intensive work arising from the change in business mix (described above) of increased retrofit and program work and reduced tankcar and cost-per-mile work. This increase in material costs caused direct costs to increase to $24.9 million in 1995 compared to $23.9 million in 1993. Transcisco Trading Company (TTC). Revenues from licensing and sales were $1,282,000 in 1995, compared with revenues of $1,259,000 in 1993. In fiscal 1995, the Company reduced warranty reserves which it deemed no longer necessary based on expiration of warranty terms and absence of warranty claims. As a result, cost of sales were reduced to a credit balance of $74,000 in 1995 versus a debit balance of $441,000 in 1993. Consequently, gross margin on sales and net income improved considerably. Gross margin increased to $1.4 million in 1995 from $900,000 in 1993. TTC's 1995 net income was $1,234,000 compared with $460,000 in 1993. Transcisco Leasing Company (TLC). In 1995, TLC's revenue was $6,388,000 compared with $3,235,000 in 1993. Revenues increased because of the significant growth in the size of the rail fleet under management in fiscal year 1995 compared with 1993. Also, higher sales caused direct costs to increase to $3.9 million from $2.6 million in 1993. TLC's gross margin increased as well, both in terms of dollars and as a percentage of sales. Gross margin was $2.5 million in 1995 (38.7% of sales) versus $600,000 in 1993 (18.5% of sales). Gross margin improved because of the growth in TLC's fleet and because TLC performed a higher volume of specialty maintenance services which earn higher margins. Overall, the sales increase and improvement in margins helped push pre-tax income to $1,427,000 in 1995 from $44,000 in 1993. Corporate. Corporate overhead levels were reduced in fiscal year 1995, by about $286,000 (from $1,546,000 to $1,260,000), primarily due to lower staffing levels. Net interest expense was $1,282,000 in 1995, compared with net interest income of $53,000 in 1993. Two factors caused this large difference in interest expense between 1995 and 1993. First, because of the bankruptcy proceedings, no interest expense was accrued on the unsecured debt of Transcisco Industries from January 1 through November 2, 1993. In contrast, for 1995 interest was accrued for the entire year on the Class F and Tax Claims. In addition, the PLMI note (in Item 1 above) was redeemed in October 1994, removing a significant source of interest income. In 1993, the Company's Loss from Continuing Operations includes $2,386,000 in reorganization costs and $1,700,000 in adjustments to estimated allowed claims associated with the Chapter 11 filing. These costs relate primarily to professional fees incurred on behalf of the various committees formed in relation to the Chapter 11 filing. In addition to its operating businesses, the Company had a substantial investment in PLMI in the form of 3,767,367 shares of Common Stock (approximately 32% stock ownership) and a $5 million note. The Company did not recognize any earnings or losses from its PLMI investment in 1993. Liquidity and Capital Resources. Working capital increased from December 31, 1993 to March 31, 1995, mainly due to improved profitability and business growth. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.18 to 1.0 at March 31, 1995, compared to 1.05 to 1.0 at December 31, 1993. Working capital was $1,742,000 at March 31, 1995, compared to $440,000 at December 31, 1993. Accounts receivable and inventory at March 31, 1995 were 33% and 43% higher, respectively, than they were at December 31, 1993 (sales increased 6.4% during the same period). The increase in accounts receivable was a result of several factors. First, TRS's cost-per-mile business, in which all of its revenues were paid in advance on the first day of each month, had transpired and was replaced by conventional repair and maintenance services (for which credit terms are generally 30-45 days longer). Second, some customers delayed payment longer in 1995 compared to 1993 (the company does not expect this trend to continue). Third, Transcisco Leasing Company's revenues increased by $3 million during 1995, resulting in higher receivables at the end of the reporting period. The Company does not expect the increase in accounts receivable will materially affect its liquidity or cash resources. The increase in inventory was due primarily to a large repair program which was terminated by the customer for internal reasons. TRS had obtained a large portion of this inventory prior to beginning work on the program. TRS has since been able to return this inventory or use it on other repair work. The Company does not believe the increase in inventory will materially affect its liquidity or cash resources. In 1995, the Company's scheduled principal payments to the Class F Creditors will increase to an annual rate of $1,300,000 (versus $52,000 in the preceding year). Pursuant to the terms of the Plan of Reorganization (see below), scheduled principal payments will increase in each of the next four years. The Company believes that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to cover principal and interest payments on the Class F debt for the foreseeable future. In 1995, the Company's cash requirements were primarily satisfied through cash on hand, operating earnings and short-term borrowings. Though its subsidiary, TRS, the Company has a line of credit with Congress Financial Corporation for up to $2,000,000, secured by first liens on all of the Company's tangible and intangible assets, except machinery and equipment and real estate. Management believes the availability of working capital from this loan facility together with projected operating cash flow should be sufficient to meet the Company's future working capital requirements. Under the Chapter 11 cases, substantially all liabilities, litigation and claims against the Company and Tours in existence at the Filing Date were stayed. The liabilities restructured and compromised are classified long- term at December 31, 1993, and March 31, 1995, consistent with the terms the Plan of Reorganization. Transcisco's Joint Plan of Reorganization and the Order Confirming the Joint Plan of Reorganization became effective on November 3, 1993. A plan` to liquidate Tours was filed in September, 1993, and confirmed in December 1993. The accompanying financial statements thus do not include the accounts of Transcisco Tours. The Plan generally provides that: A.Tax claims estimated at approximately $1,300,000 (applied against the previously established deferred tax liability) are to be paid in full over a six-year period including 7% interest. B.The Company transferred 3,367,367 shares of PLM International ("PLMI") Common Stock and 60% of a $5,000,000 subordinated PLMI promissory note receivable to a court-appointed representative of the holders of the Company's senior subordinated notes ("Bondholders") in full satisfaction of their claims in the Chapter 11 case. The Company retained a 40% interest in the principal and interest paid by PLMI with respect to the foregoing note and the Bondholders were obligated to liquidate the Company's interest in the note by November 1998. (This 40% interest was subsequently retired and paid to the Class F Creditors in October 1994). C.In connection with the Plan, the Company had previously settled litigation brought by Shirley B. Daniels against the Company, PLMI and other defendants. Pursuant to the settlement incorporated in the Plan, the Company is paying a total of $750,000 in full satisfaction of this claim over a ten quarter period ending November 3, 1995. As of March 31, 1995, $187,500 remained owning on the obligation. D.In August 1993, in accordance with the Plan, the Company paid $1.5 million to National Railroad Passenger Corporation, AKA AMTRAK, in full satisfaction of AMTRAK's claim of $10,205,739.93. AMTRAK's claim was based upon the Company's alleged breach of a five-year operating and management agreement for AMTRAK to operate the Tours' cruise train. E.Eighty percent (80%) of the claims of most remaining unsecured creditors (Class F in the Plan) plus monthly interest at prime plus 1 1/2%, are being paid over a seven-year period. The aggregate amount of unsecured claims remaining - - after the 20% reduction - - was $18,275,570. As part of the Plan of Reorganization, this indebtedness was, and is secured by all of the assets of the Company. The majority of the payments to the unsecured creditors are due in 1996-1999. In addition, on November 4, 1993, the Company issued 489,976 shares of its Common Stock to a Collateral Agent on behalf of the unsecured creditors (Class F) to be distributed to the members of the Class F over a three-year period. In the event the Company prepays its debt to these unsecured creditors during the three-year period, the Company will receive back a percentage of these shares depending on the period of repayment.

(C) Employment Agreements 1. Mr. Tedesco, President of Transcisco Trading Company ("TTC"), entered into an employment agreement with the Company originally dated as of July 1, 1989. Initially, the term of Mr. Tedesco's services under the contract was through July 31, 1992. Pursuant to amendments to the contract, the term has been extended on a month to month basis thereafter. Mr. Tedesco receives compensation at a fixed rate of $14,583 per month ($175,000 annualized). In addition, Transcisco's Board has an agreement with Mr. Tedesco to pay him his deferred vacation pay of up to one year's salary. 2. Mr. Bryant, President of Transcisco Leasing Company ("TLC"), and the Company entered into an employment agreement on May 11, 1995. This agreement supersedes an agreement entered in to in 1993, which, in turn. superseded the original employment agreement with Mr. Bryant dated July 9, 1990. The term of the employment agreement is five years ending June 30, 2000. Pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Bryant's employment may be terminated for cause only. Mr. Bryant's base salary is set at $175,000 per annum and the Board of Directors of TLC may increase the base salary if it determines an adjustment is equitable and in the best interest of the Company. The employment agreement includes incentive compensation, allowing Mr. Bryant and the management employees of TLC to share in 10% of the pre-tax earnings (the "Bonus Pool") of Transcisco Leasing Company. The allocation of the Bonus Pool is as follows: for pre-tax profits up to $1,000,000 per fiscal year, Mr. Bryant receives 100% of the Bonus Pool ("Bonus Share Percentage"). In the event pre-tax profits exceed $1,000,000 in a given fiscal year, Mr. Bryant's Bonus Share Percentage declines to 6.5%. The employment agreement also includes customary healthcare and other benefits . In the event of a merger, acquisition, or change of control of TLC, the employment agreement is binding on the successor entity or the controlling person. 3. The Company contracted with Deucalion Securities, Inc. on January 3, 1995, to make Mr. Pease available to the Company to serve as its Chief Executive Officer and President at an initial annual compensation level of $200,000. The contract is in effect until January 3, 1998. 4. Mr. Jahnke, President of Transcisco Rail Services ("TRS"), has an employment agreement with TRS dated April 13, 1995, providing for a base salary of $175,000, and an annual bonus based on performance parameters to be defined. Mr. Jahnke also received a grant of stock options which vest over three years and he purchased 250,000 shares of Transcisco stock. In the event of a change of control of the Company that adversely affects location, terms of employment, status, or compensation, Mr. Jahnke is entitled to receive one year's salary and immediate vesting of all stock options. 5. On February 23, 1994, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Philip C. Kantz that entitled him to receive severance pay equal to his base salary in effect at the time of the termination for a period of one year after such termination. Mr. Kantz resigned in January 1995, and a $240,000 accrual for severance pay was made in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995. COMPENSATION PURSUANT TO PLANS (D)Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan The Company adopted a Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan in February 1987. This Plan was terminated as part of the Chapter 11 proceedings. Under that Plan, certain senior executives of the Company and its subsidiaries were generally entitled to receive from the Company for 60 consecutive months, commencing with the attainment of age 60 or the termination of employment, an amount equal to 5% times his or her number of years of employment with the Company times his or her average monthly compensation from the Company during his or her consecutive months of employment (not to exceed 60 months) immediately preceding termination of employment. The obligations under the Plan represented unfunded liabilities of the Company, and senior executive participants' rights to payment were no greater than those of unsecured creditors. In its Chapter 11 schedules, the Company scheduled claims of Mark C. Hungerford and George A. Tedesco in the respective amounts of $216,014.40 and $460,370.00 for liabilities resulting from the termination of the Non- Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan. During the course of the Chapter 11 case, Mr. Hungerford and Mr. Tedesco filed Proofs of Claim, which claims were allowed as Class F claims by the Company. These claims, in the amount of $172,811.52 and $368,296.00, respectively, are being paid as Class F Claim's in accordance with the Plan (see subsection E of this Form 10K for additional information). (E) Profit Sharing and Tax-Advantaged Savings Plan The Company's Profit Sharing and Tax-Advantaged Savings Plan was adopted by the Board effective February 1, 1988. The Plan is intended to be a qualified Profit Sharing Plan under Sections 401(a) and (k) of the Internal Revenue Code and is subject to the provisions of ERISA. The Plan has two sources of funding (i) salary reduction contributions made at the election of participating employees; and (ii) Company contributions that the Board, in its complete discretion, may decide to make for any plan year, and which would be allocated to participants' accounts proportionate to compensation. For 1995, the match rate is $1.00 on the dollar up to $500 in salary deferrals, and $.50 on the dollar for the next $1,000 in salary deferral for a maximum contribution of $1,000 for each participant. Each participant may elect to contribute to the Plan a percentage of his or her salary subject to various maximum percentage and dollar limits determined by the tax laws. These limits are as follows: first, no participant can elect to defer in any calendar year more than $9,240 (the 1995 IRS imposed limit) plus a cost of living adjustment; and second, the Company will not contribute in any year, as either amounts elected to be deferred by participants, matching contributions, or discretionary Company contributions, more than 15% of the aggregate compensation paid to all of the plan's participants. Salary reduction contributions for employees deemed "highly compensated" under the Internal Revenue Code may be limited by nondiscrimination rules applicable to the Plan. Amounts contributed to the Plan (including employees' own salary reduction contributions) are not included in the income of a participant for federal income tax purposes. The Company is entitled to an income tax deduction for all contributions to the Plan (whether in the form of employees' salary reduction contributions, matching contributions, or discretionary employer contributions) in the year for which the contributions are made. Generally, all regular employees of the Company and its affiliates may participate in the Plan after completing 1,000 hours of service. Effective April 1, 1992, new employees will be eligible to participate after completing "One Year of Service" defined as 1,000 hours worked during the first 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) after hire or 1,000 hours worked during the first whole Plan Year commencing on or after the employee's hire date. If the worker has not qualified during either of these two time periods, then the worker will become eligible to participate upon completing 1,000 hours in any succeeding Plan Year. Certain hourly employees of the Company's affiliates were not eligible to participate in the Plan in 1991 in accordance with the provisions of the Plan as adopted by said affiliates. Because the Company's matching contributions are based on employees' salary deferral contributions, and because of the voluntary nature of participants' deferral contributions and the discretionary nature of any discretionary contributions by the Company, it is impossible for the Company to estimate the amount of contributions to the Plan that will be made by the Company. The Company estimates that approximately 250 employees will be eligible to participate in the Plan in 1995. All salary reduction contributions and the earnings thereon are 100% vested at all times. Company discretionary contributions, if any, vest over a seven-year period beginning with the first Plan Year for which the employee is a participant. Generally, if a participant terminates employment before being fully vested in his or her matching contributions and Company discretionary contribution accounts, he or she will forfeit the non-vested portion of these accounts, and the forfeited amounts will be allocated to the accounts of the remaining participants in proportion to compensation. Each employee's interest in the trust fund under the Plan will be held by the fund's trustees until the participant is entitled to receive a distribution from the Plan. Distributions of amounts attributable to Company contributions may only be made in the event of a participant's retirement, disability, death, or termination of employment with the Company. However, in the case of financial hardship, a participant may withdraw his or her salary reduction contributions to the Plan, subject to certain additional limitations imposed by law and described in the Plan. (F) Employee Stock Option Plan The Company's Amended and Restated (1994) Employee Stock Option Plan was adopted in its original form in 1983, subsequently amended in 1989, and amended and approved again by stockholders at the January 1995 Annual Meeting (see "Submission of Matters to Vote of Shareholders"). Any officer, consultant, or other employee of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company is eligible to participate in the Restated Plan. About 35 employees currently participate in the Restated Plan. Awards may be granted under the Restated Plan through December 31, 2004, unless terminated earlier by the Board. Over the life of the Restated Plan, 750,000 shares of Common Stock are issuable. The Restated Plan allows for the grant of incentive and non-statutory options. The Board generally has the discretion to determine the exercise prices of options, except that Incentive Stock Options may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. Options are exercisable in installments, as the Board provides for in each Stock Option Agreement. The exercisability of options may be accelerated in the event of a change of control of the Company. Generally, options which are exercisable upon termination of an optionee's employment with the Company or its subsidiaries expires thirty days following such termination. However, options may be exercised up until the expiration one year after termination of employment due to an optionee's death, disability, or retirement. The Restated Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Committee") consisting of at least three non-employee directors, appointed from time to time by the Board. The Committee has the absolute discretion to determine which employees should be granted awards under the Restated Plan, the number of shares subject to such awards, and the terms and conditions of such awards. In the event that there is any change in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock or of the capital structure of the Company, the number of shares available under the plan shall be increased or decreased proportionately, as the case may be, and the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable in connection with any option granted shall be increased or decreased proportionately, as the case may be, without change in the aggregate purchase price. No options for common stock were exercised in fiscal years 1992, 1993, or 1995 by any of the Company's current executive officers or directors. The following table sets forth for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995 certain information with respect to stock options granted to the persons serving as the Company's Chief Executive Officer during the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995, and each of its four other most highly compensated executive officers during the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995, including hypothetical gains based on assumed rates of annual compound stock price appreciation: Stock Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year Individual Options [CAPTION] Number of % of Total Potential Realizable Securities Options Value at Assumed Underlying Granted to Annual Rates of Stock Options Employees Exercise Price Appreciation for Granted (1) in Fiscal Price Expiration Option Term (2) Name (#) Year ($/Share) Date (2) 5% ($) 10% ($) Philip C.

(G) Directors' Stock Option Plan The Directors' 1989 Stock Option Plan was approved by the Company's stockholders at the May 1989 Annual Meeting. In 1993, the Board canceled all outstanding stock options under this Plan. At the January 1995 Annual Meeting, the stockholders approved the adoption of the Amended and Restated Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan provides for grants of stock options to purchase shares of Common Stock. The Plan is designed to attract and retain qualified members of the Board of Directors. The aggregate number of shares issuable under the Plan is 100,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to certain adjustments. Only directors are eligible to receive options under the Plan, including directors who are also employees. On the date of the annual meeting coincident with or first succeeding a director's election to the Board of Directors (other than a re-election for a successive term), each director in office at the time of such meeting will receive a grant of options equal to the product of 2,000 times the number of years for which the director was elected to the Board, each option representing the right to purchase one share of Common Stock. At each subsequent annual meeting at which a director is re- elected, the director shall be granted an additional 2,000 options times the number of years for which the director was re- elected. Each option shall become exercisable six months from the date of grant. Each option shall have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant as determined by the average closing price of the Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange for sixty days preceding the date of grant. The following table sets forth the number of options on the Company's Common Stock granted under the Amended and Restated Directors' Stock Option Plan since inception in January 1995: Name Number of Options ___________________ _________________ William E. Greenwood 6,000 None of the options granted in 1995 under the Director's Stock Option Plan have been exercised. (H) Stock Purchase Plan The Board of Directors adopted a Stock Purchase Plan on March 30, 1995 pursuant to which the Company may grant rights to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company to officers, consultants or employees of the Company. The Stock Purchase Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which determines the terms of each grant of Stock Purchase Rights.

Report of Independent Auditors The Board of Directors and Shareholders Transcisco Industries, Inc. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Transcisco Industries, Inc. (the "Company") as of March 31, 1995, December 31, 1993, and 1992, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity (net capital deficiency), and cash flows for the year ended March 31, 1995, the three month period ended March 31, 1994, and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1993. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. The consolidated financial statements of PLM International, Inc. (a corporation in which the Company had a 32% interest) for the year ended December 31, 1992 were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to data included for PLM International, Inc. is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. 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 an disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Transcisco Industries, Inc. at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1993, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended March 31, 1995, the three month period ended March 31, 1994 and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As more fully described in Note 8, the Company is subject to significant litigation and other claims. The ultimate outcome of these matters cannot presently be determined. Accordingly, a provision for any additional liability that may result has not been made in the consolidated financial statements.

See accompanying notes. TRANSCISCO INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 -CHAPTER 11 REORGANIZATION PROCEEDINGS. On July 1, 1991, certain holders of Transcisco Industries, Inc.'s (the "Company's") 9% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due May 15, 1996, filed an Involuntary Petition for Relief Under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code against the Company in the United States Bankruptcy Court. The petition was in response to the Company's previous announcement that it was delaying the May 15, 1991 interest payment on these Notes. On July 30, 1991, the Company filed a motion (which was granted) to convert the case to voluntary Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, and, in addition, one of its subsidiaries, Transcisco Tours, Inc., filed a voluntary petition with the United States Bankruptcy Court seeking protection under Chapter 11. The Chapter 11 proceedings did not include any of the Company's other operating subsidiaries: Transcisco Rail Services Company (TRS), Transcisco Leasing Company, Transcisco Trading Company or Transcisco Texan Railway, Inc., (whose operations were subsequently discontinued). The Chapter 11 cases were administered by the Bankruptcy Court, with Transcisco Industries, Inc. and Transcisco Tours Inc. (the Debtor Companies) managing their businesses as debtors-in-possession subject to the control and supervision of the Bankruptcy Court. The primary cause of the Chapter 11 filings was the outlay required and significant losses incurred in the construction and operation of a luxury "cruise train" operating from the San Francisco Bay Area to Lake Tahoe/Reno, Nevada by Transcisco Tours, Inc. The "cruise train" operated from December 7, 1990 to April 29, 1991. During 1991, the Company incurred: losses from operations; reductions in the value of special purpose assets; costs of closing down the "cruise train" operation; and costs of restructuring Transcisco Tours Inc., totaling approximately $13,839,000. An additional $3.5 million write-down of these special purpose assets was recorded in the fourth quarter of 1992. As a result of these substantial losses, Union Bank terminated the Company's line of credit, and the Company was unable to satisfy its then current cash flow requirements, all of which prompted the two Chapter 11 cases. Following a hearing on September 3, 1993, the Bankruptcy Court announced its intention to confirm the Joint Plan of Reorganization ("Plan") propounded by the Company, its Official Unsecured Creditors' Committee and its Official Bondholders' Committee. The Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law Regarding the Joint Plan of Reorganization and the Order Confirming the Joint Plan of Reorganization were entered by the Bankruptcy Court on October 21, 1993 and the Plan became effective on November 3, 1993. In September 1993, Transcisco Tours filed a liquidating Plan of Reorganization. The Disclosure Statement accompanying that Plan was approved by the Bankruptcy Court in October 1993 and confirmed in December 1993. Accordingly, other than liabilities guaranteed by the Company as part of the Plan, the accompanying financial statements do not include the accounts of Transcisco Tours after September 1993 The Plan generally provides that: 1.Tax claims of approximately $1,300,000 (applied against the previously established deferred tax liability) are payable in full over a six-year period including 7% interest. 2.The Company transferred 3,367,367 shares of PLM International ("PLMI") Common Stock and 60% of a $5,000,000 subordinated PLMI promissory note receivable to a court-appointed representative of the holders of the Company's senior subordinated notes ("Bondholders") in full satisfaction of the Bondholders' claims in the Chapter 11 case. The Company retained a 40% interest in the principal and interest paid by PLMI with respect to the foregoing $5 million note. That 40% interest was redeemed by PLMI in October 1994, and the proceeds were paid to the Class F Creditors. 3. In connection with the Plan, the Company had previously settled litigation brought by Shirley B. Daniels against the Company, PLMI and other defendants. Pursuant to the settlement in the Plan, the Company is paying $750,000 in full satisfaction over a ten quarter period ending December 31, 1995. 4.In August 1993, in accordance with the Plan, the Company paid $1.5 million in cash to AMTRAK in full satisfaction of its claim of $10,206,000. AMTRAK's claim was based upon the Company's alleged breach of a five-year operating and management agreement with AMTRAK to operate the Transcisco Tours' cruise train. 5.Eighty percent (80%) of the claims of most remaining unsecured creditors (Class F in the Plan) plus monthly interest at prime plus 1 1/2%, will be paid over a seven year period ending in December 31, 1999. The aggregate amount of unsecured claims allowed, after the 20% reduction, is approximately $18,270,570 since reduced, as of March 31, 1995, to $13,802,562 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest). As part of the Plan of Reorganization, this indebtedness is secured by all of the assets the Company. The majority of the payments to the unsecured creditors is due in 1996-1999. In addition, on November 4, 1993, the Company issued 489,976 shares of its common stock (representing 10% of the Company's then outstanding Common Stock) to a Collateral Agent acting on behalf of the unsecured creditors. These shares will be distributed over a three year period. In the event the Company prepays all of its debt to the unsecured creditors during the three year period, the Company will redeem a percentage of the shares depending on the date of the repayment. 6.Upon the filing of the amended Certificate of Incorporation on August 11, 1993, each share of the Class A Common Stock (par value $0.01 per share), of the Company and each share of the Class B Common Stock, (par value $0.01 per share), of the Company, then issued and outstanding immediately prior thereto was canceled and changed into one share of the Common Stock, (par value $0.01 per share), of the Company. In connection with the Company's emergence from bankruptcy, the Company recognized a $13,929,000 extraordinary gain in the third quarter of 1993. The gain on early extinguishment of debt is summarized as follows: Extinguished of subordinated debentures $ 7,391,000 20% reduction unsecured creditor claims, less value of 10% of the Company's Common Stock issued ($523,000) 2,232,000 Transcisco Tours unsecured debt 4,306,000 _________ $13,929,000 During 1993, the Company also recognized $1,700,000 and $1,500,000 in increases in estimated allowed claims related to continuing and discontinued operations, respectively. The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1992 and during 1993 through the date of the Company's emergence from bankruptcy reflect the financial reporting guidance for entities in reorganization as prescribed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' Statement of Position 90-7 "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code." The Consolidated Statements of Operations separately disclose reorganization expenses related to the Chapter 11 proceedings. Interest expense related to pre-petition indebtedness of approximately $3.1 and $3.2 has not been accrued in the financial statements for 1993 and 1992, respectively. Such interest will not be paid nor be a secured claim since the Company was operating under Chapter 11 during these years. Of the unaccrued interest, approximately $604,000 and $665,000 for 1993 and 1992, respectively, relates to discontinued operations. Since November 3, 1993, interest has been accrued on the $18 million of Class F and Tax Claims, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The following condensed financial statements of Transcisco Industries, Inc. and Transcisco Tours have been prepared using the equity method of accounting for reporting the results of subsidiaries which were not part of the bankruptcy proceedings at December 31, 1992.

Basis of Presentation. As more fully described above, the Company emerged from Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in November 1993. The Plan of Reorganization requires payments to the Class F Creditors over a seven year period. It is management's opinion that cash flow from operations and its existing credit facilities is sufficient to meet the cash flow requirements of the Company during fiscal 1996. Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounts of Transcisco Tours, other than amounts guaranteed by the Company, are not included in the March 31,1995 or December 31, 1993 consolidated balance sheets, or in the consolidated statements of operations since September 1993 because Transcisco Tours has been liquidated. Restricted Cash The Company's cash balance at December 31, 1993 included balances related to the sale of certain fully secured assets of the Debtor Companies and a deposit to secure performance under a certain contract. These restricted balances consisted solely of proceeds from the sale of equipment related to Tours. All of the proceeds from these sales have been distributed in accordance with the contract. As of March 31, 1995, the Company had no restricted cash balances. Concentration of Credit Risk. The Company markets its services throughout the United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses and such losses have been within management's expectations. Reserves for doubtful accounts were approximately $48,000 at March 31, 1995 and $50,000 at December 31, 1993. Inventories. Inventories, consisting of rail parts, supplies and work in process, are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the last-in, first out (LIFO) method for substantially all inventories. Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed primarily using the straight- line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives used in computing depreciation provisions are as follows: Buildings and improvements 17 to 40 years Equipment and track 3 to 40 years Rolling stock 15 to 20 years Other 3 to 10 years Where properties are retired, or otherwise disposed of, the asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to operations. Normal recurring maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Major repairs or betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the related assets. Per Share Data. Net income per share data is computed using the weighted average number of shares of outstanding common stock and diluted common stock equivalents from the assumed exercise of stock options. Net loss per share data is computed using the weighted average number of shares of outstanding common stock and excludes common stock equivalent as their effect would be anti dilutive. Statements of Cash Flows. For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. For the year ended March 31, 1995; the three month ended March 31, 1994; and the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992, interest of $906,000, $106,000, $135,000, and $61,000 was paid. During fiscal 1995, the three month period ended March 31, 1994, and calendar years 1993 and 1992, the Company paid $51,000, $17,000, $36,000, and $71,000 in income taxes related to various state filings. Income Taxes. Prior to 1993, income taxes were provided on earnings at the appropriate statutory rates applicable to such earnings. Deferred income taxes were provided for certain items which were recognized in different periods for financial reporting purposes than for income tax reporting purposes. During February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS No. 109), - Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement requires that deferred income taxes be determined using the asset and liability method rather than the deferred method previously in effect. Implementation of SFAS No. 109 effective January 1, 1993 did not have an effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Equity Earnings of Affiliated Companies. Equity earnings of affiliated companies represents the Company's share of earnings in less than 50% owned investees. Prior to the Company's emergence from Chapter 11 in 1993, the Company owned 3,367,367 shares of PLMI Common Stock (approximately 32% of PLMI's outstanding Common Stock). PLMI is an equipment leasing company engaged in the leasing and management of transportation equipment and in the syndication of capital equipment leasing investments. Equity in (losses) earnings from the Company's investment in PLMI represent the Company's share of PLMI's net income or loss plus amortization of the difference between the carrying value and stated value of PLMI's equity. The Company's equity in losses, net of applicable income taxes, from its investment in PLMI was $(3,641,000) in 1992, and $0 thereafter as a result of provisions in the Plan of Reorganization. The Company has a 20% interest in SovFinAmTrans ("SFAT"), which the Company believes is the largest privately owned railcar transportation company in Russia. SFAT was founded in mid- 1989. Management decided effective June 30, 1991 to discontinue recording equity earnings on the investment in SovFinAmTrans. The Company has accounted for its investment in SFAT using the cost method of accounting for the period 1991 through fiscal 1995. This decision is based on the Company's determination that, during this time period, it could not exert significant influence over SFAT's operations. This decision was based upon several factors, including the fact that the two Russian government ministries held a consolidated interest in SFAT of 65%. While the joint venture continues to be profitable and does not appear to be materially affected by any adverse changes in Russia, management believes this policy is prudent and consistent with the reporting of other U.S. companies with investments in Russia. Dividends received from SFAT in fiscal 1995, the three month period ended March 31, 1994, and calendar years 1993 and 1992 were $51,000, $0, $51,000, and $43,000, respectively. The Company's investment in SFAT was $1.42 million at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1993. The investment is classified under "other assets" in the non-current assets section of the balance sheet. Discontinued Operations. Losses from discontinued operations and provisions for disposal of segments of the Company 's business reflect management's decision to close-down and dispose of its luxury "cruise train" and dinner train enterprises effective April 29, 1991, and December 31, 1991, respectively. See Note 12 for further discussion of discontinued operations. Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue from repair and maintenance services in the period in which such services are performed. Performance of services is deemed to have occurred when a railcar's repairs have been completed and the railcar has been shipped. For maintenance fees earned under long term contracts, revenues are recognized in the period in which services are performed pursuant to said agreements. For railcar leases, the Company recognizes revenues over the length of the leases in amounts reflecting contractual lease payments due from lessees. Note 3 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT. Property and equipment at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1993 were as follows (in thousands): 1995 1993 _____ _____ Land $ 1,078 $ 1,071 Building and improvements 8,852 8,818 Rolling stock 682 641 Equipment and track 13,863 13,156 Other 1,044 1,078 ________ _______ $ 25,519 $ 24,764 Less: Accumulated depreciation (7,958) (6,665) ________ _______ $ 17,561 $ 18,099 Note 4 -SUBORDINATED NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM PLMI AND OTHER PLMI RELATED TRANSACTIONS. (see Note 9) Until the Company's emergence from bankruptcy, the Company had a $5 million subordinated note from PLMI. The note bore interest at 14.75% with interest payable semi-annually. Interest income of approximately $160,000, $73,000, $371,000 and $738,000 was recorded in fiscal 1995; the three month period ended March 31, 1994, and the years ended December 31,1993, and 1992, respectively. In October 1994, PLMI redeemed the note for 90% of its face value. In accordance with the Plan of Reorganization, the $1.8 million in redemption proceeds due Transcisco was paid to its Class F Creditors. Note 5 -INCOME TAXES. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax liabilities and assets are as follows (in thousands): Deferred tax liability: March 31, 1995 December 31, 1993 Non-current: Book basis of fixed assets in excess of tax basis $ (5,162) $ (1,739) Other - net -- (562) ______ _______ Total deferred tax liability (5,162) (2,301) Deferred tax asset: Current Difference in reporting bad debt expense and other current assets and liabilities for tax purposes 624 1,026 Non-current: Net operating losses carryforwards 11,190 3,828 Accrued interest 556 244 Other -net 682 38 ______ _______ Total deferred tax asset 13,052 5,136 Net deferred tax asset 7,890 2,835 Valuation allowance (7,890) (2,835) Net deferred tax liability $ -- $ -- The net change in the valuation allowance for the year ended March 31, 1995 was an increase of $5,055,000 due largely to the increase in net operating losses as well as other changes in the components of the deferred tax asset and liability. The presentation of the deferred tax asset related to accrued interest and the valuation allowance for the year ended December 31, 1993 have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. There was no current or deferred provision for income taxes for the years ended March 31, 1995, or December 31, 1993 due to tax net operating loss carryforwards. A reconciliation between income tax provisions computed at the U.S. federal statutory rate and the effective rate is reflected in the statement operations: Fiscal Year Three Month Ended Period Ended Year Ended March 31, 1995 March 31, 1994 December 31, 1993 Federal statutory rate 34% 34% 34% State rate, net of federal benefit 7 7 7 Benefit from carryforward of net operating losses (41) (41) (41) __________ _________ ________ Effective income tax rates - - - - - - ========== ========= ======== Though there is no provision for taxes, the balance sheets at the years ended December 31, 1993 and March 31, 1995 reflect liabilities for tax claims. The tax claims are the result of unresolved tax authority audits pertaining to the years 1985 through 1989. The potential liability for the tax claims was approximately $660,000 at both December 31, 1993 and March 31, 1995. Tax Account Balances Related to Tax Claims: March 31, 1995 December 31, 1993 Long term debt $ 1,914,000 $1,911,000 Other long term liabilities 321,000 321,000 ------------ ----------- Total liability related to tax claims $ 2,235,000 $2,232,000 ============ ========== At March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1993, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $30,000,000 and $8,000,000, respectively. These net operating loss carryforwards expire from 2004 through 2008.

The Company has long-term maintenance contracts, including certain cost-per-mile maintenance contracts, with several major customers requiring the Company to provide maintenance services on unit train coal cars, primarily over one to fifteen year periods. Fees are based on a fixed price per railcar-mile traveled, with provisions for adjustments based on a projected frequency of repair and changes in costs of materials and industry labor rates. The Company estimates the cost of providing maintenance under these contracts and accrues these estimates as a Deferred Maintenance Liability and a current period expense. The actual amount of future maintenance costs will vary depending on the actual lives of the maintenance components, the proportion of repairs performed by outside railroad maintenance shops, inflation and other factors. Actual costs are deducted from the Deferred Maintenance Liability as incurred. Overhead costs are recognized as incurred. Note 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES. LEASING ARRANGEMENTS Various production and office facilities and equipment are leased under operating leases ranging from one to ten years, with options to renew at various times. In addition, certain rolling stock is leased on a long - term basis. Rental expenses for operating leases with non-cancelable terms in excess of one year are: $2,632,000 in 1996; $2,549,000 in 1997; $2,364,000 in 1998; $2,173,000 in 1999, and $1,769,000 in 2000 and beyond. The Company has certain long-term non-cancelable management and sub-lease agreements related to railcar leasing transactions between 1995 and 2006. Amounts receivable under the terms of these non-cancelable agreements with terms in excess of one year are $2,769,000 in 1996; $2,527,000 in 1997; $2,383,000 in 1998; $2,316,000 in 1999, and $1,746,000 in 2000 and beyond.

LITIGATION On November 23, 1987, Shirley B. Daniels and Barney and Rachel Milione instituted a purported class action in the Superior Court of California, County of San Francisco, against PLM International, Inc., Transcisco Industries, Inc., and various corporate and individual defendants. The action purported to arise out of the "Consolidation" transaction which occurred in February 1988. The plaintiffs claimed that the Consolidation constituted a breach of certain fiduciary duties owed by the defendants to the limited partners of the various limited partnerships which were party to the transaction. The plaintiffs sought damages in an unspecified amount and attorneys' fees, costs of the suit, rescinding and invalidating the Consolidation, imposing a constructive trust on the shares of PLMI's common stock received by the Company in connection with the transaction and such other relief as the court might have deemed appropriate. All the defendants filed answers denying the substantive allegations and asserting affirmative defenses. The plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification. By order dated October 9, 1990, the court granted the plaintiff's motion to certify the class. A trial date of September 3, 1991 was set. However, as a consequence of the involuntary Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing against the Company, an "automatic stay" became effective July 1, 1991. Later, Transcisco and the Class Representatives agreed to settle all matters raised in the State Court Action and in a separate Federal Action. The Settlement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court. On November 4, 1993, the Company made its initial payment to the Daniels' Claimants in the amount of $187,500. Since then it has made payments totaling $375,000 and has $187,500 in remaining payments to satisfy the entire obligation. As part of the Daniels' settlement, the Great American Insurance Company ("Great American") made a payment to the Daniels claimants in the approximate amount of $2.65 million, with a reservation of rights to be reimbursed by Mark C. Hungerford, (Transcisco's Chief Executive Officer at the time of the Daniels' lawsuit). A federal court had earlier ruled that Great American had the obligation to provide coverage to Hungerford, but Great American appealed that ruling to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, who subsequently decided that the matter is not for the federal courts to decide. Great American has not responded to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ' decision. In the event that Great American files an action in the State Courts and is successful in a lawsuit, against Mr. Hungerford, it may seek reimbursement from Mr. Hungerford (an individual defendant in the Daniels' action). This may result in an indemnification claim against the Company by Mr. Hungerford (as a Class F Claim - payable at 80% of the amount paid by Mr. Hungerford to Great American). Note 9 - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY. Common Stock The Company had two classes of Common Stock -- Class A and Class B -- which were traded on the American Stock Exchange. During 1992 and 1991, 10,300 and 99,426 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock were converted into Class A Common Stock, respectively. On August 11, 1993, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware. Upon the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation the then outstanding 3,188,369 shares of Class A Common Stock and 1,358,960 shares of Class B Common Stock were converted into one form of stock designated Common Stock. The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation was filed by order of the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to the Plan. During calendar years 1994 and 1993, the Company granted 60,000 and 165,000 shares of common stock valued at approximately $75,000 and $67,000 to members of the Board of Directors as compensation for their services. The Company also issued 489,976 shares valued at $523,000 to a Collateral Agent on behalf of the unsecured creditors in connection with the Plan. Stock Options In January 1995, the Company's Board of Directors approved an Amended and Restated (1994) Employee Stock Option Plan. The prior Plan was adopted in its original form and amended in 1989. The 1994 Plan reserves 750,000 shares of Common Stock. Common Shares available for grant were 70,267 and 217,000 at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1993, respectively. In January 1995, the Company's Board of Directors also approved an Amended and Restated Directors Stock Option Plan which reserves 100,000 shares of Common Stock. Common shares available for grant were 94,000 and 100,000 at March 31, 1995 and at December 31, 1993, respectively. Activity under these stock option plans for the year ended March 31, 1995, the three month period ended March 31, 1994, and the year ended December 31, 1993 was as follows: Shares Under Option Price Option Per Share Outstanding, December 31, 1992 194,150 $ 3.00 to $3.75 Granted 399,650 $ 0.50 to $0.81 Cancellations (200,800) $ 0.50 to $3.75 --------- Outstanding, December 31, 1993 393,000 Granted 310,000 $ 1.1875 Exercised (6,600) $0.50 Cancellations (21,500) $ 0.50 to $0.81 --------- Outstanding March 31, 1994 674,900 Granted 353,500 $1.1875 to $1.50 Exercised (29,875) $ .50 to $1.1875 Cancellations (318,792) $ .50 to $1.1875 --------- Outstanding, March 31, 1995 679,733 ========= NOTE 10 - REORGANIZATION EXPENSES. Reorganization Expenses included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations consist of professional fees of $2,386,000 and $1,863,000 and litigation of $0 and $750,000, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992. Note 11 - INVESTMENT IN PLM INTERNATIONAL, INC. Summary financial information from the audited financial statements of PLMI is as follows (in thousands): YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1992 Total revenues $ 71,108 Total costs, expenses and taxes (89,339) Preferred dividends (7,040) ---------- Net loss attributable to common shareholders $(25,271) ========== Transcisco Industries, Inc. equity earnings in PLMI, net of income taxes $ (3,641) ========= Note 12 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS. Transcisco Tours Inc. operated the "Sierra 49er Express," a luxury "cruise train" which carried passengers from the San Francisco Bay Area to Lake Tahoe/Reno, Nevada. 1990 was primarily a start-up period for operations with the first run to Nevada occurring on December 7, 1990. A significant shortfall in ridership coupled with higher than projected capital and operating costs led to the close-down of the "cruise train" operation on April 29, 1991. Subsequently, Tours filed a voluntary petition for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The primary activity at Tours subsequent to the April 29, 1991 close-down involved the sale of Tours' assets which consisted primarily of passenger cars used on the "Sierra 49er Express." All proceeds from the liquidation of Tours were placed in a trust account, pending distribution, and were reflected on the financial statements of the Company. In September 1993, Tours filed a liquidation plan of reorganization. The Disclosure Statement accompanying the Plan was approved by the Bankruptcy Court in October 1993, and the Plan was confirmed in December 1993. Pursuant to the Liquidating Plan, the Company recognized income of $150,000 in January 1994 as payment of its claim against Tours. Transcisco Texas Railway, Inc., operated a dining train out of San Antonio, Texas. Due to losses incurred in the operation of the dining train, requirements of the Company in reorganization and management's desire to divest its passenger train segment, the dining train operation was closed down effective December 31, 1991. Losses totaling approximately $575,000, relating primarily to the write-down of special purpose assets and costs incurred in the marketing of the Texan assets/operations were incurred in 1992. During February 1993, the remaining assets of the Texan were sold and the proceeds were paid to the Texan creditors. Due to market conditions in the passenger railcar market and the Chapter 11 proceedings, which had an adverse effect on marketing these assets, the Company recorded estimated losses on the close-down and disposal of the discontinued operations/assets totaling $4,146,000 during 1992. Revenues applicable to the discontinued operations were $153,000 in 1992. NOTE 13 - BENEFIT PLANS. Retirement Plan Substantially all employees are eligible to participate in the Company's Profit Sharing and Tax Advantage Savings Plan. The Company makes discretionary contributions to the Plan up to a maximum matching contribution of $1,000 for each participant. Contributions charged to operations were $101,000 in fiscal 1995, $22,000 in the three month period ended March 31, 1994, $75,000 in 1993, and $103,000 in 1992. Deferred Compensation Plan Prior to the bankruptcy, the Company had a Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan to benefit certain senior executives. Participants were entitled to receive an amount equal to 5% times the number of years of employment times the average monthly compensation immediately preceding termination of employment (not to exceed 60 months) for 60 consecutive months, commencing with the later of attainment of age 60 or the termination of employment, Benefits generally vested only upon completion of five years of employment. The Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan was terminated during the Chapter 11 case and the liabilities of Mr. Hungerford and Mr. Tedesco in the respective amounts of $216,014 and $460,370 were allowed as unsecured claims against the Company. These claims are being paid as Class F Claims in accordance with the terms of the Company's Plan. (See Note 1). No charges to operations related to the Deferred Compensation Plan were made in 1993, ($42,000 for 1992). Deferred Compensation Expense accrued through the Bankruptcy filing date relating to employees of the Debtor Companies was included as part of long-term debt in 1993.
