Exhibit index is at Item 14(a)3 on pages 38-39. 2 PART I. ITEM 1. BUSINESS. T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) serve as investment adviser to the T. Rowe Price Mutual Funds (the Price Funds), other sponsored investment products, and private accounts of other institutional and individual investors, including defined benefit and defined contribution retirement plans, endowments, foundations, trusts, and other mutual funds. Total assets under management at December 31, 1995 were $75.4 billion, up $17.6 billion since December 31, 1994. The Company also provides various administrative services to the Price Funds and other clients, including mutual fund transfer agent, accounting and shareholder services; participant recordkeeping and transfer agent services for defined contribution retirement plans; discount brokerage; and trust services. The Company was incorporated in Maryland in January 1947 as successor to the investment counseling business formed by the late Mr. T. Rowe Price in 1937. The Company offers its Price Funds' shareholders and private accounts a broad range of investment products designed to attract and retain investors with varying investment objectives. Shareholders are allowed to exchange funds among mutual fund products as economic and market conditions and investor needs change. The Company frequently introduces new mutual funds designed to complement and expand its investment product offerings, respond to competitive developments in the financial marketplace, and meet the changing needs of its funds' shareholders. New mutual funds and other investment products are introduced when the Company has personnel with sufficient investment expertise to manage the product successfully for a substantial group of investors over a long period of time. The Company's base of assets under management consists of a broad range of domestic and international stock, bond and money market mutual funds and other investment products which meet the varied needs and objectives of its individual and institutional investors. In recent years, there have been significant net cash inflows to the stock mutual funds, particularly the international funds in 1993 and 1994 and the domestic funds in 1995. Company revenues are largely dependent on the total value and composition of assets under management; accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management impact revenues and results of operations. Investment advisory fees earned on assets under management and related expenses incurred to generate such fees are generally higher for stock and international investment products which have become a substantially larger portion of the Company's assets under management than in the past. The investment strategies employed by the Company accommodate a variety of private account client investment objectives encompassing both domestic and international securities. Management of investments in stocks include active approaches emphasizing established growth, mid-cap growth, New America growth (companies that participate in the growth of the service sector of the U.S. economy), small cap, equity income, capital appreciation, and natural resources as well as systematic and balanced portfolio strategies. Approaches for investing in fixed income securities portfolios include active 3 and systematic (index) management strategies and management of high yield securities and cash reserves. The Company has also developed several specialized investment management services including private company investing, investing in debt securities and creditor claims of financially-troubled companies, the efficient disposition of equity distributions from venture capital investments, and stable value investment contract management. Average assets under management (in millions) during the past five years and total assets under management at December 31, 1995 are: 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 12/31/95 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Price Funds Stock $ 7,599 $ 10,280 $ 14,713 $ 21,495 $ 27,211 $ 32,311 Taxable bond 3,304 5,150 6,025 5,412 5,392 5,763 Tax-free bond 2,530 3,187 4,169 4,225 4,211 4,487 Money market 6,177 5,428 4,903 5,333 5,865 6,008 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Total 19,610 24,045 29,810 36,465 42,679 48,569 Other sponsored in- vestment products and private accounts 13,066 14,510 17,136 19,490 23,866 26,868 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Total assets under management $ 32,676 $ 38,555 $ 46,946 $ 55,955 $ 65,545 $ 75,437 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ The Company's revenues (in thousands) from investment advisory and administrative services provided under agreements with the Price Funds and other clients during the past five years are: 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Investment advisory fees Price Funds Stock $ 47,712 $ 65,202 $ 96,136 $145,020 $180,574 Taxable bond 17,730 25,149 31,869 28,561 28,404 Tax-free bond 12,960 15,869 19,873 19,744 20,018 Money market 25,416 21,780 19,137 20,132 22,113 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Total 103,818 128,000 167,015 213,457 251,109 Other sponsored investment products and private accounts 41,576 46,590 57,794 76,614 80,978 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Total 145,394 174,590 224,809 290,071 332,087 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Administrative fees Price Funds 37,623 45,153 54,184 61,057 67,166 Price Funds' shareholders and others 13,197 18,405 23,024 24,615 27,211 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Total 50,820 63,558 77,208 85,672 94,377 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Total investment advisory and administrative fees $196,214 $238,148 $302,017 $375,743 $426,464 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ 4 MUTUAL FUND MANAGEMENT. OVERVIEW. Each of the Price Funds has a distinct investment objective that has been developed as part of the Company's strategy to provide a broad and balanced selection of investment products. All Funds are sold exclusively by the Company on a no-load basis (without a sales commission). No-load mutual funds offer investors a low-cost and relatively easy method of investing in a variety of stock and bond products. The Company's marketing effort is focused on advertising in the print media and direct mail communications. During 1996, the Company will expand its promotional activities to the television market including cable channels. In addition, considerable direct marketing efforts are targeted at large participant-directed defined contribution plans that invest, in whole or in part, in mutual funds. The Company believes that its distribution methods and fund shareholder and administrative services promote stability of assets in the Price Funds through market cycles in addition to reducing costs to fund shareholders. At December 31, 1995, assets under management in the Price Funds aggregated $48.6 billion, an increase of $11.3 billion during 1995.

Assets under management in this fund were $1,723 million at December 31, 1995. AGREEMENTS WITH PRICE FUNDS. The Company provides investment advisory, distribution and administrative services to the Price Funds under investment management, underwriting, transfer agency and service agreements. Pursuant to investment management agreements with each of the Price Funds, the Company provides investment advisory services to each fund, subject to the authority of each fund's board of directors and to each fund's fundamental investment objective. The investment management agreements with the Price Funds are approved annually by the directors of the respective funds, including a majority of the directors who are not "interested persons" of the funds or the Company as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the Investment Company Act). Amendments to such agreements must be approved by the Price Funds' shareholders. Each agreement automatically terminates in the event of its assignment (as defined in the Investment Company Act) and either party may terminate the agreement without penalty after notice (generally 60 days). Each fund has the right to use the "T. Rowe Price" name for so long as its investment management agreement with the Company remains in effect. The Company is paid an investment advisory fee based upon the average daily net assets of the funds and separate administrative fees for the support services rendered by the Company. Management of the Company and the independent directors of the Price Funds regularly review the fund fee structures in light of fund performance, the level and range of services provided, industry conditions, and other factors. The current advisory fee paid by each of the Price Funds (excluding the Price Spectrum and Summit 11 Funds, the Price Equity Index Fund and the Foreign Equity Fund) is computed by multiplying the individual fund's average daily net assets by a composite fee determined by adding a group fee based on the combined net assets of the Price Funds and an individual fund fee applicable to each fund. Each fund (excluding the Price Summit Funds) bears all expenses associated with the operation of the fund and the issuance and redemption of its securities. In particular, each fund pays investment advisory fees; shareholder servicing fees and expenses; fund accounting fees and expenses; transfer agent fees; custodian fees and expenses; legal and auditing fees; expenses of preparing, printing and mailing prospectuses and shareholder reports to existing shareholders; registration fees and expenses; proxy and annual meeting expenses; and independent directors' fees and expenses. All advertising, promotion and selling expenses are borne by the Company. The Company does, however, absorb expenses of funds that are in excess of limitations established under state securities laws. The Company does not expect that state expense limits, at current fee and expense levels, will have any significant effect on the results of its operations. The Company generally guarantees that a newly-organized fund's expenses will not exceed a specified ratio during its initial operations. Allowances made for reduced advisory fees and other mutual fund expenses in excess of limitations may be recovered in future periods if and when fund performance and related expense limitation provisions permit. Pursuant to underwriting agreements with each fund, T. Rowe Price Investment Services, Inc. (TRP Investment Services) is the exclusive distributor of the Price Funds. The agreements provide that TRP Investment Services shall always offer the funds' shares at a public offering price equal to the net asset value per share and shall use its best efforts to obtain investors for the funds. The underwriting agreements with the Price Funds are approved annually by the directors of the respective funds, including a majority of the directors who are not "interested persons" of the funds or the Company as defined under the Investment Company Act. Each agreement automatically terminates in the event of its assignment (as defined in the Investment Company Act), and either party may terminate the agreement without penalty after notice (generally 60 days). TRP Investment Services does not receive a separate fee for its services to the Price Funds. The Company expends substantial resources in advertising and direct mail communications to existing and potential Price Funds' shareholders and in providing the staff and communications capabilities to respond to inquiries. The level of advertising and promotion expenditures varies over time as market conditions and cash inflows to the Price Funds warrant. ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES. T. Rowe Price Services, Inc. (TRP Services) provides transfer agent and shareholder services under contracts with the Price Funds. Shareholder servicing activities include maintenance of staff and equipment to respond to all telephone inquiries from existing Fund shareholders and to provide the mutual fund transfer agent function. In addition, the Company provides mutual fund accounting services including maintenance of financial records, preparation of financial statements and 12 reports, daily valuation of portfolio securities and computation of daily net asset values per share. T. Rowe Price Retirement Plan Services, Inc. (TRP Retirement Plan Services) provides participant accounting, plan administration and transfer agent services for defined contribution retirement plans that invest, at least in part, in the Price Funds. Plan sponsors compensate TRP Retirement Plan Services for certain administrative services while the Price Funds compensate it for maintaining and administering the individual participant accounts for those plans that invest in the Price Funds. The Company provides certain trust services through its Maryland-chartered limited service trust company, T. Rowe Price Trust Company, Inc. (TRP Trust Company). TRP Trust Company serves as custodian or trustee for the Price Funds' prototype retirement plans, IRAs, and certain other retirement plans. TRP Trust Company also sponsors common trust funds principally for investment by qualified employee retirement plans. Under its charter, TRP Trust Company may not be in the business of accepting deposits and cannot make personal or commercial loans. The Company also provides discount brokerage services through TRP Investment Services. Such services are provided primarily to shareholders of the Price Funds and are intended to complement the other investment services offered to them. All discount brokerage transactions are cleared through and accounts maintained by BHC Securities, Inc., an independent clearing broker. OTHER SPONSORED PRODUCTS AND PRIVATE ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT. The Company serves as investment adviser to pension, profit sharing and other employee benefit plans, endowments, foundations, trusts, individuals, corporations, other mutual funds and other investors who are principally domiciled in the United States. No private account client accounted for more than 5% of the Company's 1995 private account investment advisory revenues. Investment management services are provided to client accounts on an individual basis and through sponsored investment partnerships and trusts. Sponsored investment products have generally been issued through private placements. Fees for separately managed private account clients are generally computed based on the value of assets under management. The standard form of investment advisory agreement with private account clients provides that the agreement may be terminated at any time and that any unearned fees paid in advance will be refunded. The minimum account size is generally $20 million for institutional private account services, although the minimum account size for certain specialized investment services may be higher. Fees for sponsored product management are based on individual product advisory agreements, which result from consideration of, among other things, the type of investments to be made and the unique investment management services to be provided. Many specialized investment advisory services are provided to private 13 accounts by subsidiaries of the Company. International equity and fixed income securities management is provided by Rowe Price-Fleming International, Inc. (RPFI). Management of stable value investment contracts, aggregating $5.3 billion at December 31, 1995, is provided by T. Rowe Price Stable Asset Management, Inc. (TRP Stable Asset Management). INVESTMENT RESEARCH. In the performance of its investment advisory functions, the Company uses fundamental, technical and cyclical security analysis methods. The Company maintains a substantial internal equity and fixed income investment research effort, undertaken by analysts, economists, statisticians and support personnel, which includes original industry and company research, utilizing such sources as inspection of corporate activities, management interviews, company-prepared information, financial information published by companies and/or filed with the SEC, financial newspapers and magazines, corporate rating services, and field checks with participants in the industry such as suppliers or competitors. In addition, the Company utilizes research provided by brokerage firms in a supportive capacity; information is received from private economists, political observers, foreign commentators, government experts, and market and security analysts. In certain instances, computerized data is the basis of the stock selection process rather than security analysis. ROWE PRICE-FLEMING INTERNATIONAL, INC. TRP Finance, Inc., an investment holding company subsidiary, owns 50% of the common stock of RPFI which, by virtue of the Company's controlling interest, is consolidated into the Company's financial statements. The balance of the common stock of RPFI is owned equally by Copthall Overseas Limited (United Kingdom), a subsidiary of the London-based merchant banking group Robert Fleming Holdings Limited, and Jardine Fleming International Holdings Limited (Cayman Islands), a subsidiary of the Jardine Fleming Group Limited, an investment bank in the Asia-Pacific Region. RPFI serves as investment adviser to the Price International Funds and to other mutual funds, sponsored investment products and private accounts of institutional investors. During 1995, international assets under management by RPFI increased $3.9 billion to $22.2 billion at year end, including $12.6 billion in the T. Rowe Price International Funds. RPFI's financial information and assets under management are included in the Company's consolidated financial data and statistical information presented elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

The Company, RPFI, TRP Stable Asset Management, and T. Rowe Price (Canada), Inc. (TRP Canada) are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and all applicable state securities 14 agencies. Each of the Price Funds is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act and, except for the specific state tax-free funds, is qualified for sale throughout the United States and Puerto Rico.

TRP Canada is also registered as an investment adviser with the Ontario Securities Commission. All aspects of the Company's business are subject to extensive federal and state laws and regulations. These laws and regulations are primarily intended to benefit or protect the Company's clients and the Price Funds' shareholders and generally grant supervisory agencies and bodies broad administrative powers, including the power to limit or restrict the Company from carrying on its business in the event that it fails to comply with such laws and regulations. In such event, the possible sanctions that may be imposed include the suspension of individual employees, limitations on engaging in certain lines of business for specified periods of time, revocation of the investment adviser and other registrations, censures and fines.

As a member of the financial services industry, the Company is subject to substantial competition in all aspects of its business. A significant number of mutual funds are sold to the public by investment management firms, broker-dealers and insurance companies. In addition to other investment advisory and mutual fund management companies, the Company competes with brokerage and investment banking firms, insurance companies, banks, and other financial institutions in all aspects of its business. Many of these financial institutions have substantially greater resources than the Company. The Company competes with other providers of investment products and services primarily on the basis of the range of investment products offered, the investment performance of such products, the manner in which such products are distributed, and the scope and quality of the services provided. The Company believes that competition among the mutual funds industry will increase as a result of consolidation and acquisition activity within the industry. In order to maintain and enhance its competitive position as an independent, no-load, direct marketer of mutual funds, the Company frequently reviews acquisition prospects and may, from time to time, engage in discussions or negotiations that could lead to acquisitions by the Company. Currently, the Company is not party to any agreements or understandings 15 regarding any acquisitions; however, as a result of the Company's process of reviewing possible acquisition prospects, negotiations may occur from time to time if appropriate opportunities arise.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. GENERAL. T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (the Company) derives its revenue primarily from investment advisory and administrative services provided to the Price Mutual Funds (the Funds), other sponsored investment products, and private accounts of other institutional and individual investors. Investment advisory fees are generally based on the net assets of the portfolios managed. The majority of administrative revenues are derived from services provided to the Funds. The Company's base of assets under management consists of a broad range of domestic and international stock, bond and money market mutual funds and other investment products which meet the varied needs and objectives of its individual and institutional investors. In recent years, there have been significant net cash inflows to the stock mutual funds, particularly the international funds in 1993 and 1994 and the domestic funds in 1995. Company revenues are largely dependent on the total value and composition of assets under management; accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management impact revenues and results of operations. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. 1995 versus 1994. Net income increased almost $14.3 million or 23% to $75.4 million. Earnings per share grew more than 23%, or $.47 per share, to an annual record of $2.47. The 1995 results include an extraordinary charge of $1.0 million or $.03 per share from the early extinguishment of the Company's 9.77% fixed rate, $12.4 million promissory note due in 2001. The Company's common stock repurchases during 1994 and 1995 resulted in a decrease in weighted average shares outstanding and account for $.03 of the increase in earnings per share. Total revenues increased 15% from $382.4 million to an annual record of $439.3 million, led by an increase of $42.0 million in investment advisory revenues. Investment advisory revenues from the Funds increased more than $37.6 million as average assets under management rose $6.2 billion to $42.7 billion. Fund assets totaled $48.6 billion at December 31, 1995, up $11.3 billion from December 31, 1994, with stock funds accounting for $9.5 billion of the increase. Net cash inflows to the Funds during 1995 of $3.8 billion, including $3.6 billion to the stock funds, surpassed the 1994 total of $3.4 billion and nearly equaled the record of $3.9 billion in 1993. Private accounts and other sponsored products contributed the balance of the investment advisory revenue gains as these assets under management rose $6.3 billion to more than $26.8 billion at December 31, 1995. Total assets under management at year end increased to $75.4 billion from $57.8 billion. Administrative fees from services to the Funds and their shareholders rose 10% during 1995 to $94.4 million, primarily as a result of growth in the 19 activities of the Company's mutual fund transfer agent and defined contribution retirement plan recordkeeping services; however, increases in related operating expenses more than offset these revenue gains. Investment and other income rose $6.2 million primarily due to greater earnings on the Company's larger mutual fund holdings and capital gains realized on stock mutual fund investments. Operating expenses increased 13% or $34.4 million to $295.6 million from $261.2 million. Greater compensation and related costs, which were up $14.0 million, were attributable to increases in overall compensation rates, including higher bonuses, and an 8% increase in the average number of employees primarily to support the Company's growing administrative operations. Advertising and promotion expenditures increased 12% to $34.8 million as fourth quarter 1995 spending was boosted significantly in response to investor demand for stock mutual funds. Early 1996 cash inflows to the mutual funds have been strong. Advertising and promotion expenditures in 1996 are expected to remain high relative to 1995 expenditures as long as market conditions and cash inflows warrant. Depreciation, amortization, and operating rentals of property and equipment increased $5.2 million as a result of the Company's recent investments in computer and communications equipment and office facilities. International investment research fees increased $4.3 million as international assets under management rose to $22.2 billion at December 31, 1995, including $12.6 billion in the mutual funds. Administrative and general expenses increased $7.2 million due to greater costs associated with the Company's growing operations and data processing capabilities. The provision for income taxes decreased as a percentage of income before income taxes and minority interests primarily due to the recognition of federal research expenditure credits. Tax laws allowing such credits expired June 30, 1995. Lower net income reported on a separate company basis by the Company's 50%- owned subsidiary, Rowe Price-Fleming International, Inc. (RPFI), was the primary reason for the decrease in income attributable to the minority interests in the Company's consolidated subsidiaries. 1994 versus 1993. Net income increased $12.6 million or 26% from $48.5 million and $1.59 per share to $61.2 million and $2.00 per share. Revenues increased 23% to $382.4 million from $310.0 million. Results for 1993 included a net charge of $.3 million or $.01 per share reflecting the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles. Investment advisory revenues from the Funds increased $46.4 million as average assets under management rose $6.7 billion to $36.5 billion. Assets in the Funds closed 1994 at $37.3 billion, up $2.6 billion during the year, with stock funds accounting for $22.8 billion of the year-end total. Net cash inflows to the Funds during 1994 totaled nearly $3.4 billion as net subscriptions of $4.1 billion into the stock funds and $.8 billion into the money market funds were partially offset by net redemptions of $1.5 billion 20 from the bond funds. Private accounts and other sponsored products primarily in the international asset area and performance management fees earned from sponsored partnerships contributed $18.8 million of the revenue gains. Private account assets under management rose to $20.5 billion at December 31, 1994, up $.8 billion during the year. Total assets under management at year end increased to $57.8 billion from $54.4 billion. Administrative fees from services to the Price Funds and their shareholders rose 11% during 1994 to $85.7 million as a result of growth in the activities of the Company's mutual fund transfer agent and defined contribution plan recordkeeping services; however, increases in related operating expenses more than offset these revenue gains. Investment and other income decreased $1.4 million from 1993 due to losses from dispositions and write-downs of the Company's bond fund holdings in the higher interest rate environment that existed throughout 1994. Operating expenses increased 19% or $42.1 million to $261.2 million from $219.1 million. Greater compensation and related costs, which were up $19.7 million, were attributable to increases in overall compensation rates, including higher bonuses, and a 6% increase in the average number of employees, primarily to support the growing administrative services operations. The Company increased spending on advertising and promotion by $1.8 million primarily to attract additional investments into the international funds during early 1994. Such expenditures vary over time as market conditions and cash inflows to the Funds warrant. Depreciation, amortization, and operating rentals of property and equipment increased $3.5 million as a result of the Company's recent investments in computer and communications equipment, office facilities and furnishings. International investment research fees, which are based on international assets under management, increased $9.2 million. Administrative and general expenses increased $7.9 million as a result of greater operating costs associated with the Company's growing operations, including those related to data processing and communications. Increased earnings by RPFI was the primary reason for the increase in income attributable to the minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries. The Company's international assets, which are managed by RPFI, increased $2.9 billion to $18.3 billion at December 31, 1994, including $10.8 billion in the Price Funds. CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY. During the three years ended December 31, 1995, stockholders' equity increased 78% or $120.0 million to $274.2 million. Stockholders' equity at December 31, 1995 includes $12.7 million of net unrealized security holding gains on the Company's investments in sponsored mutual funds and $43.2 million which is restricted as to use under various regulations and agreements to which the Company and its subsidiaries are subject in the ordinary course of business. Operating activities provided net cash inflows of $101.8 million in 1995 when net income increased $14.3 million. Comparatively, 1994 provided net operating cash inflows of $111.9 million, including $27.3 million from the 21 liquidation of sponsored mutual fund investments which had been held as trading securities. Net cash expended in investing activities during 1995 aggregated $35.5 million, down from the $53.4 million expended in 1994 when the proceeds of the liquidation of the trading securities portfolio were reinvested in the Company's longer-term investment portfolios. Property and equipment expenditures reached $23.9 million in 1995, including $7.8 million for the acquisition of 32.5 acres of land in suburban Owings Mills, Maryland on which the Company will develop additional office facilities for its expanding operations. Financing activities consumed $44.9 million in 1995, including common stock repurchases, dividends and distributions to minority interests as well as $13.6 million for the early extinguishment of the Company's long-term debt. The Company realized a substantial savings by retiring the debt at market rates versus the terms of the original borrowing. At December 31, 1995, the Company held net liquid assets of more than $170 million, including $81.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, to meet business demands and opportunities. In addition, a maximum of $20 million is available to the Company under unused bank lines of credit. The Company anticipates 1996 property and equipment acquisitions of approximately $50 million, including $20 million for development of two office buildings on the land acquired in 1995. Additional construction and furnishing costs of approximately $30 million for these new facilities are expected in 1997 before occupancy occurs in the latter half of the year. These capital expenditures are expected to be funded from liquid assets currently available and from operating cash inflows. The future need for additional facilities can be met on the substantial acreage remaining undeveloped and on an adjacent 37.4 acres presently under purchase option. Commitments for additional investments in partnerships and other ventures aggregate $7.5 million at December 31, 1995. ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA. Index to Financial Statements: Report of Independent Accountants 22 Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 1994 and 1995 23 Consolidated Statements of Income for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 24 Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 25 Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 26 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 28 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 30 Supplementary Data - Selected Quarterly Data. 37 22 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. 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. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. During 1993, the Company changed its methods of accounting for postretirement benefits other than pensions and income taxes by adopting new standards of the Financial Accounting Standards Board. These changes are more fully described in Notes 8 and 4 accompanying the consolidated financial statements. /s/ PRICE WATERHOUSE LLP Baltimore, Maryland January 25, 1996 23 T.

ROWE PRICE ASSOCIATES, INC. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the Company) derives its revenue primarily from investment advisory and administrative services provided to sponsored mutual funds and investment products and to private accounts of other institutional and individual investors. Company revenues are largely dependent on the total value and composition of assets under management, which include domestic and international equity and debt securities; accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management impact revenues and results of operations. BASIS OF PREPARATION. The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which requires the use of estimates made by the Company's management. Certain 1993 and 1994 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1995 presentation. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority owned subsidiaries and, by virtue of the Company's controlling interest, its 50%-owned subsidiary, Rowe Price-Fleming International, Inc. (RPFI). All material intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. International investment research is provided by affiliates of the minority stockholders of RPFI. Fees paid for these services are based on international assets under management by RPFI. CASH EQUIVALENTS. For purposes of financial statement disclosure, cash equivalents consist of all short-term, highly liquid investments including certain money market mutual funds and all overnight commercial paper investments. The cost of these investments is equivalent to fair value. INVESTMENTS IN SPONSORED MUTUAL FUNDS. On December 31, 1993, the Company began accounting for its investments in sponsored stock and bond mutual funds at fair value and, accordingly, classifies these holdings as either trading securities (held for only a short period of time) or available-for-sale securities. Unrealized holding gains on securities classified as available-for-sale are reported, net of income taxes, as a separate component of stockholders' equity. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK. Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 105 consist primarily of investments in sponsored money market and bond mutual funds and accounts receivable. Credit risk is believed to be minimal in that counterparties to these financial instruments have 29 substantial assets, including the diversified investment portfolios under management by the Company which aggregate $75.4 billion at December 31, 1995. PARTNERSHIP AND OTHER INVESTMENTS. The Company invests in various partnerships and ventures, including those sponsored by the Company. These entities, which hold equity securities, venture capital investments and debt securities, are generally accounted for using the equity method which adjusts the Company's cost for its share of subsequent earnings or losses. These investments do not have a readily determinable fair value. Minor limited partnership investments are accounted for using the cost method. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT. Property and equipment is stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation and amortization computed using the straight-line method. Provisions for depreciation and amortization are based on the following estimated useful lives: computer and communications equipment, furniture and other equipment, 2 to 7 years; building, 40 years; leasehold improvements, the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remainder of the lease term; and leased land, the term of the lease. REVENUE RECOGNITION. Investment advisory and administrative services fees are recognized during the period in which such services are performed, except when advisory fees from mutual funds are adjusted in accordance with the expense limitation provisions of the investment advisory agreements between the Company and the funds. Allowances made for reduced advisory fees and other mutual fund expenses in excess of limitations may be recovered in future periods if and when fund performance and related expense limitation provisions permit. ADVERTISING. Costs of advertising are expensed the first time that the advertising takes place. EARNINGS PER SHARE. Earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, including share equivalents arising from unexercised stock options. The aggregate weighted average shares outstanding used in computing earnings per share were 30,615,114 in 1993, 30,571,496 in 1994, and 30,524,853 in 1995. 30 T. ROWE PRICE ASSOCIATES, INC.

The Company recognized net losses of $34,000 and $1,306,000 in 1993 and 1994, respectively, and a net gain of $473,000 in 1995 from dispositions and write- downs of fund investments. The Company provides investment advisory and administrative services to the T. Rowe Price family of mutual funds which had aggregate net assets under management at December 31, 1995 of $48.6 billion. All services rendered by the Company are provided under contracts that set forth the services to be provided and the fees to be charged. These contracts are subject to periodic review and approval by each of the funds' boards of directors and, with respect to investment advisory contracts, also by the funds' shareholders. Revenues derived from services rendered to the sponsored mutual funds were $221,199,000 in 1993, $274,618,000 in 1994, and $318,276,000 in 1995. Accounts receivable from the sponsored mutual funds aggregate $23,666,000 and $30,029,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively. 31 NOTE 2 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT.

Goodwill of $7,937,000 arising from the 1992 acquisition of an investment management subsidiary of USF&G Corporation and the combination of six USF&G mutual funds into the T. Rowe Price family of funds is being amortized over 11 years using the straight-line method. Accumulated amortization at December 31, 1994 and 1995 aggregates $1,738,000 and $2,483,000, respectively. Goodwill of $1,980,000 arising from an earlier corporate acquisition is being amortized over 40 years using the straight-line method. Accumulated amortization was $1,089,000 at December 31, 1994 and $1,138,000 at December 31, 1995. NOTE 4 - INCOME TAXES. The provision for income taxes consists of: 1993 1994 1995 ________ ________ ________ (in thousands) Current income taxes Federal and foreign $ 27,254 $ 42,635 $ 46,350 State and local 4,927 6,184 7,274 Deferred income taxes (tax benefits) 3,139 (2,232) 711 ________ ________ ________ $ 35,320 $ 46,587 $ 54,335 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between taxable income for financial statement and income tax return purposes. Significant temporary differences resulted in deferred income taxes of $2,713,000 in 1993 related to income from the MRT holdings and $944,000 in 1995 related to accrued compensation and retirement costs. Deferred tax benefits arising from significant temporary differences include $1,712,000 related to accrued compensation and $704,000 related to net unrealized investment income in 1994. On January 1, 1993, the Company adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income 32 Taxes," which requires the use of the liability method for computing deferred income taxes instead of the deferred method previously used in the Company's financial statements. The cumulative effect of adopting the new accounting principle was a credit to earnings of $291,000 or $.01 per share. The net deferred tax asset of $1,125,000 included in other assets at December 31, 1994 consists of total deferred tax liabilities of $3,660,000 and total deferred tax assets of $4,785,000. Deferred tax liabilities include $1,100,000 arising from RPFI's undistributed earnings, $1,901,000 arising from net unrealized investment income, and $659,000 from depreciation expense. Deferred tax assets include $3,646,000 arising from deferred compensation and retirement costs and $1,139,000 from other accrued expenses. The net deferred tax liability of $5,189,000 included in income taxes payable at December 31, 1995 consists of total deferred tax liabilities of $8,991,000 and total deferred tax assets of $3,802,000. Deferred tax liabilities include $1,475,000 arising from RPFI's undistributed earnings, $7,037,000 arising from net unrealized investment income, and $479,000 from depreciation expense. Deferred tax assets include $2,702,000 arising from deferred compensation and retirement costs and $1,100,000 from other accrued expenses. Cash outflows from operating activities include income taxes paid of $31,355,000 in 1993, $49,686,000 in 1994, and $52,956,000 in 1995. The following table reconciles the statutory federal income tax rate to the Company's effective income tax rate. 1993 1994 1995 ______ ______ ______ Statutory federal income tax rate 35.0% 35.0% 35.0% State income taxes, net of federal tax benefits 3.6 3.1 3.3 Other items .2 .3 (.5) ______ ______ ______ Effective income tax rate 38.8% 38.4% 37.8% ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ NOTE 5 - DEBT. In September 1995, the Company extinguished the $12,375,000 balance of its 9.77% promissory note due in 2001 and recognized an extraordinary charge equal to the $1,500,000 prepayment premium and the unamortized debt issuance cost of $235,000, net of an income tax benefit of $686,000. The estimated fair value of this note at December 31, 1994 exceeded the outstanding principal balance at that time by $1,392,000. A maximum of $20,000,000 is available to the Company under unused bank lines of credit at December 31, 1995. Cash outflows from operating activities include interest paid of $1,481,000 in 1993, $1,643,000 in 1994, and $1,000,000 in 1995. Interest expense was $1,754,000 in 1993, $1,330,000 in 1994, and $1,023,000 in 1995. 33 NOTE 6 - COMMON STOCK AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS. SHARES AUTHORIZED AND ISSUED. A 2-for-1 split of the Company's common stock was effected on November 30, 1993. Earnings per-share data in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and all per-share and share data in these notes have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the stock split. At December 31, 1995, the Company had reserved 7,318,402 shares of its unissued common stock for issuance upon the exercise of stock options and 420,000 shares for issuance under a plan whereby substantially all employees may acquire shares of Company stock through payroll deductions at prevailing market prices. The Company's board of directors has authorized the future repurchase of up to 1,670,000 common shares at December 31, 1995. Accounts payable and accrued expenses includes $148,000 at December 31, 1994 and $3,910,000 at December 31, 1995 for pending settlements of common stock repurchases. Subsequent to year end, the Company's board of directors adopted resolutions to effect a two-for-one split of common shares and a proportional increase in authorized common shares from 100,000,000 to 200,000,000. These changes require amendment of the Company's charter and have been recommended by the board to the Company's stockholders for approval at their annual meeting on April 12, 1996. DIVIDENDS. The Company declared cash dividends per share of $.445 in 1993, $.55 in 1994 and $.69 in 1995. FIXED STOCK OPTION PLANS. At December 31, 1995, the Company has four stock-based compensation plans (the 1986, 1990 and 1993 Stock Incentive Plans and the 1995 Director Stock Option Plan) under which it has granted fixed stock options with a maximum term of 10 years to its employees and directors. Vesting of employee options is based solely on the individual continuing to render service to the Company and generally occurs over a 5-year graded schedule. The exercise price of each option granted is equivalent to the market price of the Company's stock at the date of grant. The Company applies the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," in accounting for its stock option awards. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized any related compensation expense. Beginning with financial statements for 1996, the Company will be required to make certain additional disclosures as if the fair value based method of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," had been applied to the Company's stock option grants made subsequent to 1994. The following table summarizes the status of and changes in the Company's stock option plans during the past three years. 34 Weighted- Weighted- average average exercise Options exercise Options price exercisable price _________ __________ ___________ _________ Outstanding at beginning of 1993 3,772,640 $12.95 Granted 1,154,000 28.13 Exercised (343,525) 8.95 Forfeited (58,800) 15.31 _________ ______ Outstanding at end of 1993 4,524,315 17.09 1,461,927 $11.63 _________ ______ _________ ______ Granted 1,231,500 32.25 Exercised (387,392) 10.16 Forfeited (173,000) 18.24 _________ ______ Outstanding at end of 1994 5,195,423 21.16 1,989,913 $14.49 _________ ______ _________ ______ Granted 1,241,500 52.05 Exercised (515,521) 12.02 Forfeited (96,110) 25.52 _________ ______ Outstanding at end of 1995 5,825,292 $28.48 2,462,192 $17.07 _________ ______ _________ ______ _________ ______ _________ ______ Additional information regarding stock options outstanding at December 31, 1995 follows.

NOTE 8 - EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLANS. The Company sponsors two defined contribution retirement plans: a profit sharing plan based on participant compensation and a 401(k) plan. Costs recognized for these plans were $7,601,000 in 1993, $7,881,000 in 1994, and $8,676,000 in 1995. 35 The Company also has a defined benefit plan covering those employees whose annual base salaries do not exceed a plan-specified salary limit. Participant benefits are based on the final month's base pay and years of service subsequent to January 1, 1987. The Company's funding policy is to contribute annually the maximum amount that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes. The following table sets forth the plan's funded status and the amounts recognized in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. 1994 1995 ________ ________ (in thousands) Actuarial present value of Accumulated benefit obligation for service rendered Vested $ 1,430 $ 3,207 Non-vested 343 890 ________ ________ Total 1,773 4,097 Obligation attributable to estimated future compensation increases 685 1,725 ________ ________ Projected benefit obligation 2,458 5,822 Plan assets held in sponsored mutual funds, at fair value 2,747 3,956 ________ ________ Projected benefit obligation in excess of (less than) plan assets (289) 1,866 Unrecognized net gain from changes in discount rate and past experience different from that assumed 2,501 24 ________ ________ Accrued retirement costs $ 2,212 $ 1,890 ________ ________ ________ ________ Discount rate used in determining actuarial present values 8.25% 6.10% ________ ________ ________ ________ Net periodic retirement plan expense includes: 1993 1994 1995 ______ ______ ______ (in thousands) Service cost for benefits earned during the year $1,077 $867 $531 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 252 230 202 Actual return on plan assets (94) (5 (754) Net amortization and deferral 489 (271 330) ______ _____ _____ $1,724 $821 $309 ______ _____ _____ ______ _____ _____ On January 1, 1993, the Company adopted SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," which changed the Company's practice of accounting for postretirement health and life insurance benefits from the cash basis to the accrual basis. The effect of adopting the new accounting principle was an aftertax charge to earnings of $621,000 or $.02 per share. Postretirement benefits plan participants include only those retirees and their dependents who were receiving benefits on January 1, 1993. NOTE 9 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES. The Company leases office facilities and equipment under noncancelable operating leases. Related rent expense was $13,554,000 in 1993, $14,859,000 36 in 1994, and $16,969,000 in 1995. Future minimum rental payments under these leases aggregate $9,516,000 in 1996, $7,062,000 in 1997, $5,937,000 in 1998, $5,203,000 in 1999, $5,203,000 in 2000, and $31,094,000 in later years. At December 31, 1995, the Company had outstanding commitments to invest an additional $7,472,000 in various investment partnerships and ventures. The Company has contingent obligations at December 31, 1995 under a $500,000 direct pay letter of credit expiring not later than 1999 and a $780,000 standby letter of credit which is renewable annually. Consolidated stockholders' equity at December 31, 1995 includes $43,195,000 which is restricted as to use under various regulations and agreements to which the Company and its subsidiaries are subject in the ordinary course of business. From time to time, the Company is a party to various claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, it is unlikely that any adverse determination in one or more pending claims would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. 37 Supplementary Data - Selected Quarterly Financial Data: 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Quarter Quarter Quarter Quarter ________ ________ ________ ________ (in thousands, except per-share amounts) 1994 Revenues $ 91,927 $ 92,468 $ 96,943 $101,040 Net income $ 13,753 $ 15,049 $ 16,262 $ 16,087 Earnings per share (1) $ .44 $ .49 $ .53 $ .53 1995 Revenues $ 97,846 $104,789 $113,226 $123,438 Net income $ 14,991 $ 18,222 $ 20,502 (2) $ 21,694 Earnings per share $ .50 $ .60 $ .67 (2) $ .70 (1) The sum of the 1994 quarterly earnings per share does not equal the full-year amount because the quarterly computations are done independently based on average shares outstanding during each quarter.

Within three (3) business days after Seller receives notice that the Prochazka Option is exercisable, Seller shall give Buyer written notice of the date by which the Prochazka Option must be exercised and the latest date on which settlement on the Prochazka Property must be held, and Buyer shall exercise its right to acquire all of Parcel 3 B by notice in writing to Seller given not later than sixty (60) days following the date that Buyer receives notice from Seller that the Prochazka Option is exercisable.

PURCHASE PRICE. For a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of settlement on the Property, the purchase price for Parcel 3 B shall be an amount per acre equal to the amount per acre actually paid by Buyer for the Property as set forth in Section 2 hereof. 13.3. ADJUSTMENTS TO PURCHASE PRICE. 13.3.1 SETTLEMENT ON PARCEL 3 B WITHIN TEN YEARS OF DATE OF SETTLEMENT ON THE PROPERTY. Commencing on the date which is eighteen (18) months from the date of settlement on the Property, and continuing on each anniversary of that date which occurs within ten (10) years from the date of settlement on the Property, the purchase price shall be increased by four percent (4%) per annum, compounded annually, provided that settlement on Parcel 3 B is held not later than ten (10) years from the date of settlement on the Property. 13.3.2. SETTLEMENT ON PARCEL 3 B MORE THAT TEN YEARS AFTER DATE OF SETTLEMENT ON THE PROPERTY. If settlement on Parcel 3 B occurs more than ten (10) years after the date of settlement on the Property, the adjusted purchase price shall be the higher of the two figures obtained by adjusting the purchase price as hereinafter set forth in subsections (i) and (ii) hereof, respectively. (i) The purchase price shall continue to be increased by four percent (4%) per annum, compounded annually, beginning on the date which is eighteen (18) months from the date of settlement on the Property as set forth in Section 13.3.1. hereof and on each anniversary of that date occurring prior to settlement on Parcel 3 B. (ii) The purchase price shall be adjusted to the fair market value of Parcel 3 B, determined as set forth in Section 13.3.3. hereof, on the date that Buyer exercises its right to purchase Parcel 3 B. 13.3.3. DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE. Buyer and Seller shall attempt to agree on the fair market value of Parcel 3 B within ten (10) days after Buyer exercises its right to purchase Parcel 3 B. If Seller and Buyer are unable to agree on the fair market value of Parcel 3 B within such ten (10) day period, each shall nominate one person, who shall have a current proficiency in land value appraisals in Baltimore County, Maryland and shall be a member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers having an M.A.I. designation and having an office in the Baltimore Metropolitan area, to appraise and determine the Fair Market Value of Parcel 3 B. The nomination must be in writing and must be given by each party to the other within thirty (30) days from the date that Buyer exercised its right to purchase Parcel 3 B. If the two persons nominated and appointed as 9 appraisers by the parties shall differ in judgment by more than 10% as to the Fair Market Value shown on the higher appraisal, then they shall appoint an appraiser having an M.A.I. designation and having a current proficiency in land value appraisals in Baltimore County, Maryland to be the third appraiser, if they can agree upon such person. However, if they cannot agree, then the Chief Judge of the Circuit Court for Baltimore County shall appoint an appraiser having an M.A.I. designation and having a current proficiency in land value appraisals in Baltimore County, Maryland as the third appraiser, but if such Chief Judge shall fail or refuse to act, then either party may apply to any court having jurisdiction for the appointment of such third appraiser. If the two appraisers so chosen shall agree in writing upon the fair market value, then such value shall be binding upon Seller and Buyer; if the fair market value established by the two appraisers differs by 10% or less of the value shown on the higher appraisal, then the average of the two appraisals shall be binding on Seller and Buyer; but if the fair market value established by the two appraisers, which shall be submitted within thirty (30) days after the second of the two appraisers shall have been nominated, differs by more than 10% of the value shown on the higher appraisal, then the selection of the third appraiser shall be made as above provided within ten (10) days thereafter. The decision of the third appraiser so selected as to the fair market value shall be rendered in writing to the parties within thirty (30) days after the selection of such third appraiser. In the event the third appraiser is used, the Fair Market Value of Parcel 3 B shall be determined as follows: (i) if the fair market value established by the third appraiser is lower than both of the fair market values established by the two appraisals, then the lower of the fair market values established by the two appraisals shall be conclusive and binding upon Seller and Buyer, (ii) if the fair market value established by the third appraiser is equal to or between the fair market values established by the two appraisals, then the fair market value established by the third appraiser shall be conclusive and binding upon Seller and Buyer, or (iii) if the fair market value established by the third appraiser is higher than both of the fair market values established by the two appraisals, then the higher of the fair market values established by the two appraisals shall be conclusive and binding upon Seller and Buyer. Each party shall bear the expense of its own appraiser, but the fees and expenses of the third appraiser shall be shared equally. 13.4. SETTLEMENT. Settlement on Parcel 3 B will be held on, or by mutual consent before, the date specified as the latest date on which settlement under the Prochazka Option must be held in the notice from Seller given pursuant to Section 13.1. 13.5. MANNER OF CONVEYANCE. At the election of Seller, Parcel 3 B shall be conveyed to Buyer pursuant to the provisions of either sub-section A or sub-section B hereof. Seller shall give Buyer notice in writing of which provisions it elects not less than thirty (30) days prior to settlement. 10 A. SELLER ACQUIRES PROCHAZKA PROPERTY. (i) Seller shall acquire the Prochazka Property pursuant to the provisions of the Prochazka Option. (ii) Upon payment of the purchase price by Buyer, Seller shall convey Parcel 3 B to Buyer. B. SELLER PARTIALLY ASSIGNS PROCHAZKA OPTION. (i) Seller shall assign the Prochazka Option as it relates to the Prochazka Portion to Buyer. In consideration for such assignment, Buyer shall pay Seller an amount equal to the part of the purchase price allocable to the Prochazka Portion on an acreage basis less the purchase price payable by Buyer to acquire the Prochazka Portion and such part of the recordation, transfer and agricultural transfer taxes as are attributable to such purchase price. At settlement under the Prochazka Option, Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any agricultural transfer taxes paid by Buyer. (ii) Seller and Buyer shall acquire their respective portions of the Prochazka Property pursuant to the provisions of the Prochazka Option. (iii) Upon payment of the balance of the purchase price by Buyer, Seller shall convey the balance of Parcel 3 B to Buyer. 13.6. CONDITION OF TITLE. Acceptable fee simple title to Parcel 3 B shall be conveyed to Buyer at settlement subject to no liens, encumbrances or restrictions except those shown on the title report submitted by Buyer to Seller upon exercise of its right to purchase Parcel 3 B (and such other liens, encumbrances and restrictions as are consented to by Buyer). 13.7. AGREEMENT IMPOSING RESTRICTIONS. Seller and Buyer shall execute an agreement imposing certain covenants and restrictions on Parcel 3 B, in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT E, which agreement shall be recorded among the Land Records of Baltimore County immediately after the deed conveying title to Parcel 3 B to Buyer and before any mortgage or other lien is placed on Parcel 3 B. 13.8. RECORDATION AND TRANSFER TAXES. Any County or State recordation or transfer taxes, including agricultural transfer taxes, based on the consideration paid to the Prochazkas pursuant to the Prochazka Option, shall be paid by Seller either directly or as a credit against the purchase price as set forth in Section 13.4.B. All other State and County recordation and transfer taxes except agricultural transfer taxes shall be borne one-half by Seller and one-half by Buyer. Any agricultural transfer taxes shall be paid by Seller. 13.9. PRORATIONS. Prorations shall be as set forth in Section 6.2. hereof. 11 13.10. DEFAULT BY PROCHAZKAS. 13.10.1. In the event that the Prochazkas default in their obligation to convey the Prochazka Property pursuant to the terms of the Prochazka Option, Seller shall in no event have any liability to Buyer for its failure to cause the conveyance of Parcel 3 B to Buyer by reason of the Prochazkas' default. 13.10.2. In the case of such default, unless Buyer notifies Seller within thirty (30) days of the date provided for settlement under the Prochazka Option that it wishes Seller to file a suit for specific performance against the Prochazkas, at Buyer's expense, and is willing to postpone settlement until the conclusion of the suit, neither party shall have any further rights under this Section 13. If Buyer does so notify Seller, Seller shall with reasonable promptness file a suit for specific performance against the Prochazkas and shall diligently prosecute same at Buyer's expense. If the suit results in a decree refusing specific performance, Seller shall not be obligated to appeal, and neither party shall have any further rights under this Section 13 unless Buyer directs Seller to prosecute an appeal of the adverse decision at Buyer's expense, and further agrees to defer settlement until after a favorable decision on appeal. Settlement shall be held, if at all, within five (5) days after all appeal rights have expired after entry of a decree for specific performance of the Prochazka Option by a court of competent jurisdiction and performance of the decree by the Prochazkas. 14.
