2 3 PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY. GENERAL Itel Corporation (the "Company" or "Itel"), which was incorporated in Delaware in 1967, is engaged in the distribution of networking products for voice, data and video and electrical power applications by Anixter Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively "Anixter"). In 1994, the Company's interest in ANTEC Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively "ANTEC"), a developer and distributor of products used in the cable television industry, was reduced from 53% to 33% by a public offering of ANTEC common stock by the Company and subsequently reduced to approximately 30% by the issuance by ANTEC of additional common stock in connection with an acquisition. The Company views ANTEC as a long-term investment, subject to change should future circumstances warrant. At December 31, 1994, the Company also had an investment in approximately 9% of the common stock of Santa Fe Energy Resources, Inc. ("Energy"). In 1994, the Company sold its remaining interests in its rail car leasing business conducted by Itel Rail Corporation ("Rail"). In 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company sold all of its other transportation services assets. In 1991, the Company sold the distribution services business previously conducted by Itel Distribution Systems, Inc. ("Itel Distribution") and all the stock of Great Lakes International, Inc. which together with its subsidiaries (collectively "Great Lakes") was engaged in heavy marine construction, primarily dredging. At the end of 1990, the Company sold substantially all of its intermodal container leasing assets. For information about the 1994, 1993 and 1992 sales see Item 7--Financial Liquidity and Capital Resources--Asset Sales and Other Dispositions and Note 3 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In 1994, the Company sold its 9% investment in the common stock of Catellus Development Corporation ("Catellus"). In 1991, the Company sold its 15% investment in the common stock of Santa Fe Pacific Corporation ("Santa Fe") and its 21% investment in the common stock of American President Companies, Ltd. ("APC"). The financing operations of Signal Capital Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively "Signal Capital") are being held for sale. See Note 3 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. As of December 31, 1994, the Company had no net operating loss ("NOL") or investment tax credit ("ITC") carryforwards for Federal income tax purposes due to the sale of the Company's rail car leasing business which exhausted virtually all carryforwards existing at December 31, 1993. As of December 31, 1993, the Company had cumulative NOL carryforwards of approximately $345 million that were set to expire primarily in 1995 through 2007, and ITC carryforwards of approximately $16 million that were set to expire between 1994 and 2001. Certain of these carryforwards have not been examined by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and, therefore, may still be subject to adjustment. The availability of tax benefits of NOL and ITC carryforwards to reduce the Company's Federal income tax liability is subject to various limitations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). In addition, at December 31, 1994, various foreign subsidiaries of Itel had aggregate cumulative NOL carryforwards for foreign income tax purposes of approximately $44 million which are subject to various tax provisions of each respective country and expire primarily between 1995 and 2003. At December 31, 1994, the Company and its subsidiaries employed approximately 4,200 persons. For information on segment and geographic data see Note 16 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. ANIXTER Anixter is a leading supplier of wiring systems, networking and internetworking products for voice, data and video networks and electrical power applications in North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America. Anixter stocks and sells a full line of these products from a network of 83 locations in the United States, 16 in Canada, 13 in England, 30 in Continental Europe, 3 in Mexico, 6 in Australia, 4 in Scotland, 2 in Malaysia and single locations in Singapore, Venezuela, Hong Kong and Ireland. Anixter sells approximately 80,000 products to over 60,000 active customers and works with over 2,000 suppliers. Its customers include 3 4 international, national, regional and local companies that are end users of these products and engage in manufacturing, communications, finance, education, health care, transportation, utilities and government. Also, Anixter sells products to resellers such as contractors, installers, system integrators, value added resellers, architects, engineers and wholesale distributors. The average order size is about $1,200. The products sold by Anixter include communication (voice, data and video) products used to connect personal computers, peripheral equipment, mainframe equipment and various networks to each other. The products include an assortment of transmission media (copper and fiber optic cable) and components, such as adapters, outlets, cable assemblies, crossconnect systems, connectors, terminals, tools, test equipment and power protection devices. Active data components for networking applications include concentrators, intelligent hubs, multiplexers, transceivers, routers and servers. Anixter sells products that are incorporated in local area networks ("LANs"), the internetworking of LANs to form wide area networks ("WANs") and the increased use of fiber optic products in private networks, including factory environments. During 1993 and 1994, Anixter began selling and providing technological support for internetworking products, including routers, as well as video-conferencing and network access products. Anixter's products also include electrical wiring systems products used for the transmission of electrical energy and control/monitoring of industrial processes. These products include power cables, high temperature or other critical environment cables, armored and control cable, instrumentation and thermalcouple cable, portable power cable, shielded electronic process cables and accessory products. Anixter is not a significant distributor to the residential or commercial construction industries. Prior to 1989, Anixter's operations were limited to the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Belgium. In 1989, Anixter made a major commitment to expand its operations into the international voice, data and video communications markets. Since then, Anixter has opened businesses in France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Australia, Mexico, Venezuela, Portugal, Singapore, The Netherlands, Austria, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia. Anixter also has representative offices in the People's Republic of China, Indonesia and Taiwan along with technical representatives in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Turkey and Poland. While several of these expansion businesses achieved an operating profit in 1994 and 1993, the Asian and Latin American expansion program is considered to be in the start-up mode. Since 1988, Anixter has experienced cumulative losses relating to the expansion program totalling approximately $44 million. An important element of Anixter's business strategy is to develop and maintain close relationships with its key suppliers, which include the world's leading manufacturers of networking and electrical wiring systems products. Such relationships stress joint product planning, inventory management, technical support, advertising and marketing. In support of this strategy, Anixter does not compete with its suppliers in product design or manufacturing activities. Approximately 17% and 13% of Anixter's aggregate purchases in 1994 were of products manufactured by AT&T and Bay Networks, respectively. In addition, approximately 49% of the Company's purchases in 1994 were from its five largest suppliers. Anixter's ability to cost effectively serve its customers' needs is possible through its proprietary computer system which connects all of its warehouses and sales offices throughout the world. The system is designed for sales support, order entry, inventory status, order tracking, credit review and material management. This fully integrated system connects Anixter's 161 worldwide service centers through more than 3,000 terminals. The computer system enables the sales staff to locate products at any location and ship them within 24 hours. Anixter provides a high level of customer service while maintaining a reasonable level of investment in inventory and facilities. Anixter competes with distributors and manufacturers who sell products directly or through existing distribution channels to end users or other resellers. In addition, Anixter's future performance could be subject to economic downturns and possibly rapid changes in applicable technologies. To guard against inventory obsolescence, Anixter has negotiated various return and price protection agreements with its key suppliers. Although Anixter's relationships with its suppliers are good, the loss of a major supplier could have a temporary adverse effect on Anixter's business but would not have a lasting impact since such products are available from alternate sources. 4 5 INVESTMENT IN ANTEC In 1993, due to strategic and other business considerations, ANTEC was changed from a division of Anixter to a subsidiary of the Company and the Company's interest in ANTEC was reduced to 53% following an initial public offering of ANTEC common stock. In May 1994, in light of different business considerations, some of which are mentioned below, Itel completed a public offering of shares of common stock of ANTEC (the "ANTEC Offering"). Itel sold 4.0 million shares at $21.75 per share. Net proceeds from the ANTEC Offering were approximately $83 million. As a result of the ANTEC Offering, Itel's ownership of ANTEC common stock was reduced from 53% to 33%. This ownership was further reduced in November 1994 to approximately 30% when ANTEC issued additional shares of its common stock in connection with an acquisition. Effective January 1, 1994, the Company reflects ANTEC as an equity investment in the consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 1994, the market value of Itel's 6,727,500 shares of ANTEC was $123.6 million. The Company views ANTEC as a long-term investment, subject to change should future circumstances warrant. ANTEC is a leading developer and supplier of optical transmission, construction, rebuild and maintenance equipment for the broadband communications industry. More than 90% of ANTEC's consolidated sales for the year ended December 31, 1994 came from sales to the cable industry. Demand for these products depends primarily on capital spending by cable operators for constructing, rebuilding, maintaining or upgrading their systems. The amount of capital spending and, therefore, ANTEC's sales and profitability, are affected by a variety of factors, including general economic conditions, access by cable operators to financing, government regulation of cable operators, demand for cable services and technological developments in the broadband communications industry. Technological developments are occurring rapidly in the communications industry and, while the effects of such developments are uncertain, they may have a material adverse effect on the demand for ANTEC products and on the cable industry as a whole. For example, technologies are being implemented that bypass existing cable systems and permit the transmission of signals directly into households. Almost all of the products supplied by ANTEC are manufactured for it by domestic and foreign manufacturers. Approximately 19% of ANTEC's aggregate purchases in 1994 were of products manufactured by AT&T, and many ANTEC customers have demonstrated loyalty to AT&T products. In addition, approximately 46% of ANTEC's purchases in 1994 were from its ten largest suppliers. The loss of a significant manufacturing source, such as AT&T, could adversely affect ANTEC's business, although management believes that any such loss is unlikely to have a lasting impact on its business, since such products are generally available from alternate sources. The cable industry is highly concentrated with over 75% of U.S. domestic subscribers being served by approximately twenty-five major multi-system operators ("MSO's"). In 1994, over 50% of ANTEC's revenues were obtained from sales to the twenty-five largest MSO's. A significant portion of ANTEC's revenue is derived from sales to Tele-Communications, Inc. (together with its affiliates, "TCI") aggregating $151.6 million, $146.1 million and $86.7 million for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. All aspects of ANTEC's business are highly competitive. ANTEC competes with national, regional and local manufacturers, distributors and wholesalers, including companies larger than ANTEC, such as General Instrument Corporation and Scientific-Atlanta, Inc. Various manufacturers who are suppliers to ANTEC sell directly as well as through distributors into the cable marketplace. In addition, because of the convergence of the cable, telecommunications and computer industries and rapid technological development, new competitors may seek to enter the cable market. Many of ANTEC's competitors or potential competitors are substantially larger and have greater resources than ANTEC. The principal methods of competition are product differentiation, performance and quality; price and terms; and service, technical and administrative support. The future success of ANTEC depends in part on its ability to attract and retain key executive, marketing and sales personnel. Competition for qualified personnel in the cable industry is intense, and the loss of certain key personnel could have a material adverse effect on ANTEC. ANTEC has entered into employment 5 6 contracts with its executive officers. ANTEC also has a stock option program designed to provide substantial incentives for its employees to remain with ANTEC. RAIL CAR LEASING On July 25, 1994, Itel sold 99.5% of its remaining interests in its rail cars (which was in the Trust described below) for $35.0 million in cash and $169.5 million in notes receivable for an aggregate purchase price of $204.5 million. The buyer prepaid all the notes and related interest in October 1994. The Company's remaining interest in the Trust was sold in October for cash of approximately $1.0 million. The net gain on the sale of the Company's entire interest in the Trust was approximately $202.0 million. In June 1992, Itel and Rail completed a transaction with General Electric Capital Corporation and certain of its affiliates ("GECC") pursuant to which Rail contributed substantially all of its owned rail cars, subject to approximately $170 million of debt, to a trust (the "Trust") of which Rail was a 99% beneficiary and the Trust contributed these rail cars, subject to the debt, along with other rail cars the Trust received as a contribution from its 1% beneficiary, to a partnership (the "Partnership") of which the Trust is a 99% partner. The Partnership assumed the Rail debt and leased all of these contributed rail cars, along with other rail cars it received as a contribution from its other partners, to a subsidiary of GECC (the "Lessee"). These leases (the "Leases") expire in 2004, with fixed rentals of approximately $153 million annually. The Leases include the grant to the Lessee of an assignable fixed price purchase option at the end of the term on the leases for all, but not less than all, of the rail cars for approximately $500 million. Prior to the rail car transaction, most of Rail's cars, other than boxcars, were leased to major railroads and shippers under fixed-rate leases which were typically one to five years in length. The majority of these leases required Rail to maintain the cars and provide other administrative services. The utilization of grain hoppers was affected by, among other things, export demand, domestic trade policies and weather. Prior to the rail car transaction, most of Rail's boxcars were leased to small railroads and used primarily for transportation by the paper and forest product industries. A majority of these leases were long-term "per diem" leases. Per diem leases did not require fixed rental payments. Instead, the rental paid by the lessee was a percentage of the use charges ("car hire") earned by the lessee railroad for the use of the leased equipment on the tracks of other railroads. STOCK INVESTMENTS At December 31, 1994, the Company owned 8,064,005 shares or approximately 9% of Energy's common stock, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE"). Energy is subject to the informational filing requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, in accordance therewith, is required to file reports and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In 1994, 1993, 1992 and 1991, the Company wrote down the value of its investments in marketable equity securities, including investments in Catellus which was sold in 1994 and Energy, by $34 million, $25 million, $25 million and $50 million, respectively. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE The principal assets held for sale at December 31, 1994 are those of Signal Capital. The Company acquired Signal Capital in 1988. The finance business of Signal Capital has been classified as assets held for sale in the Company's consolidated financial statements since its acquisition. Subsequent to the purchase, Itel sold or liquidated portions of the portfolio including $855 million in 1989, $78 million in 1990, $157 million in 1991, $82 million in 1992, $82 million in 1993 and $60 million in 1994. The $113.8 million net portfolio at December 31, 1994 represents approximately 8% of the original acquired Signal Capital portfolio. The acquired Signal Capital portfolio is being liquidated and no material amounts of new loans or investments are being made by Signal Capital. Proceeds were used to repay indebtedness. The Company has had and continues to have discussions with third parties for the sale of substantial portions of the acquired Signal Capital portfolio of loans and leases. Absent such transactions, which the Company continues to pursue, such orderly liquidation is expected to continue over approximately the next two years. The Company continues to 6 7 reduce the acquired Signal Capital portfolio in an orderly manner that maximizes its value to Itel shareholders. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. Most of Anixter's facilities are leased. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries became involved as plaintiffs or defendants in various legal proceedings. The claims and counterclaims in such litigation, including those for punitive damages, individually in certain cases and in the aggregate, involve amounts which may be material. However, it is the opinion of the Company's management, based upon the advice of its counsel, that the ultimate disposition of pending litigation will not be material. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS. During the fourth quarter of 1994, no matters were submitted to a vote of the security holders.

- --------------- Notes: (a) Due to the 1994 sale of 4.0 million shares of ANTEC (see Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements), all 1994 financial information reflects ANTEC as an equity investment. All prior financial information reflects ANTEC as a consolidated subsidiary of Itel. In addition, due to the 1994 sale of the Company's remaining interests in its rail cars (see Note 3 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements), the Company's investment in its rail car leasing business has been reclassified in the consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented. (b) The non-recurring items in 1994 include a $48.2 million pre-tax gain on the May 1994 public offering of shares of common stock of ANTEC and a $10.8 million pre-tax gain relating to ANTEC's issuance of common stock in connection with an acquisition in November 1994. Non-recurring items in 1993 principally include an $84.5 million pre-tax gain on the 1993 initial public offering of shares of common stock of ANTEC and a $6.4 million pre-tax gain on other investments offset by a pre-tax loss of approximately $19.1 million relating to the liquidation of the Company's equity investment in Q-TEL (see Note 4 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). (c) In 1994, 1993, 1992 and 1991, the Company wrote down the value of its investments in marketable equity securities by $34.4 million, $25.0 million, $25.0 million and $50.0 million, respectively. The remaining $5.2 million pre-tax charge in 1994 relates to the loss on sale of the Company's investment in Catellus. The remaining $29.4 million pre-tax charge in 1991 relates to the loss on sale of the Company's investment in Santa Fe. The $31.7 million pre-tax charge in 1990 primarily relates to the recognized loss in market value on other marketable equity securities. (d) Extraordinary items in 1993, 1992 and 1991 represent the gain/(loss), net of related income taxes, on early extinguishment of senior and subordinated debt at Itel and its subsidiaries. (e) Stockholders' equity reflects treasury stock purchases of $138.9 million, $.3 million, $114.3 million, $147.4 million and $187.6 million in 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991 and 1990, respectively. No dividends on common stock were declared or paid during any of the periods shown. (f) Stockholders' equity includes unrealized losses on marketable equity securities available-for-sale, net of deferred income tax benefit of $3.9 million, $23.7 million, $49.1 million, $47.8 million and $112.9 million at December 31, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991 and 1990, respectively. Stockholders' equity at December 31, 1992, 1991 and 1990 included approximately $83 million of Series C convertible preferred stock which was converted into 3.8 million shares of Common Stock in 1993. 9 10 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. FINANCIAL LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Asset Sales and Other Dispositions Recapitalization Program: In 1990, the Company began a program of modifying its capital structure by reducing certain senior and subordinated debt at Itel and its subsidiaries and purchasing Common Stock. Over the last several years, the Company also implemented a program of selling or otherwise monetizing certain assets to fund the recapitalization program. Since the program began, the Company has used proceeds to substantially reduce debt at the holding company and subsidiary level and to repurchase approximately $590 million of outstanding Common Stock. The financial liquidity and capital resources in 1994 and 1993 reflect the impact of Itel's recapitalization program. Sale of Rail Car Leasing Business: On July 25, 1994, Itel sold 99.5% of its remaining interests in its rail cars for $35.0 million in cash and $169.5 million in notes receivable for an aggregate purchase price of $204.5 million. The buyer prepaid all the notes and related interest in October 1994. The Company's remaining interest in the rail cars was sold in October for cash of approximately $1.0 million. The net gain on the sale of the Company's entire interest in rail cars was approximately $202.0 million. The total cash proceeds of $205.5 million was used to: (1) repay the $150 million Corporate senior bank term loan ("Term Loan"); (2) pay the related income tax liability of approximately $25 million caused by the sale which resulted after utilization of the Company's NOL and ITC carryforwards; and (3) other general corporate purposes including the purchase of the Company's Common Stock. ANTEC Public Offerings: In May 1994, due in large part to a perceived change in market conditions, Itel completed a public offering of shares of common stock of ANTEC. Itel sold 4.0 million shares at $21.75 per share. Net proceeds from the ANTEC Offering were approximately $83 million. As a result of the ANTEC Offering, Itel's ownership of ANTEC common stock was reduced from 53% to 33%. In addition, in November 1994, ANTEC issued approximately 2.0 million shares of ANTEC common stock in connection with an acquisition which lowered Itel's ownership to approximately 30%. In 1993, ANTEC, formerly a business division of Anixter, was established, for strategic and other business reasons, as a separate and independent corporation through Anixter's contribution of assets and liabilities of its ANTEC business division to ANTEC and Anixter's distribution of 100% of the outstanding common stock of ANTEC to Itel. In September 1993, Itel and ANTEC completed an initial public offering of shares of common stock of ANTEC (the "Initial Offering"). Net proceeds from the Initial Offering were approximately $157 million of which Itel, after considering the redemption by ANTEC of preferred shares owned by Itel, received approximately $97 million. Proceeds were used to reduce indebtedness. As a result of the Initial Offering, Itel's ownership of ANTEC common stock was reduced to 53%. Liquidation of Signal Capital: Signal Capital has been classified as assets held for sale since its acquisition in 1988. Subsequent to the purchase, Itel sold or liquidated portions of the portfolio including $855 million in 1989, $78 million in 1990, $157 million in 1991, $82 million in 1992, $82 million in 1993 and $60 million in 1994. The $113.8 million net portfolio at December 31, 1994 represents approximately 8% of the original acquired Signal Capital portfolio. The acquired Signal Capital portfolio is being liquidated and no material amounts of new loans or investments are being made by Signal Capital. Proceeds were used to repay indebtedness. The Company has had and continues to have discussions with third parties for the sale of substantial portions of the acquired Signal Capital portfolio of loans and leases. Absent such transactions, which the Company continues to pursue, such orderly liquidation is expected to continue over approximately the next two years. The Company continues to reduce the acquired Signal Capital portfolio in an orderly manner that maximizes its value to Itel shareholders. Other Dispositions: In 1994, Itel sold its investment in the marketable equity securities of Catellus for approximately $47.8 million. In 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company sold all of its other transportation services assets. Proceeds from the sales were used to reduce debt or to purchase Common Stock. 10 11 Cash Flow Year ended December 31, 1994: Consolidated net cash used by continuing operating activities was ($35.4) million for the year ended December 31, 1994 compared to ($42.4) million in 1993. Cash used by continuing operating activities decreased due primarily to significantly improved earnings, after elimination of non-recurring items and losses on marketable equity securities, offset somewhat by increased working capital investment resulting from a 30% increased sales volume at Anixter. Consolidated net cash used by continuing operations in 1994 reflects an $64.5 million net working capital investment by Anixter used to fund a $400 million increase in revenues. Consolidated cash provided by net investing activities was $119.3 million in 1994 versus $168.3 million in 1993. Consolidated investing activities in 1994 include approximately $82.8 million of proceeds from the ANTEC Offering, approximately $47.8 million from the sale of the Company's investment in Catellus and approximately $12.5 million in net receipts from the liquidation of the Company's equity investment in Q-TEL and loans due from Q-TEL. Consolidated investing activities in 1993 reflect $156.6 million of proceeds from the Initial Offering, net receipts from the liquidation of the Company's equity investment in Q-TEL of $23.7 million and proceeds from the sale of miscellaneous marketable securities and other investments. Consolidated cash used for net financing activities was ($363.2) million for the year ended 1994 in comparison to ($234.3) million for the year ended 1993. Both periods include the paydown of a substantial amount of subordinated debt. The consolidated net financing activities in 1994 also include $138.9 million of treasury stock purchases. Cash from discontinued operations, net was $262.5 million in 1994 versus $117.4 million in 1993. Discontinued operations in 1994 include net proceeds of $205.5 million from the sale of the Company's remaining interest in its rail car leasing business. Discontinued operations in 1994 and 1993 include net proceeds from the sale of the Company's other transportation services assets of $10 million and $46 million, respectively, and cash received from the reduction of assets at Signal Capital of $60 million and $82 million, respectively. Year ended December 31, 1993: Consolidated net cash used by continuing operating activities was ($42.4) million for the year ended December 31, 1993 compared to ($40.3) million in 1992. Cash used by continuing operating activities increased slightly due to higher operating income and lower interest costs caused by debt reductions somewhat offset by higher investment in net working capital attributable to Anixter and ANTEC sales volume increases. Consolidated net cash used by continuing operations in 1993 reflects a $57.9 million net working capital investment by Anixter and ANTEC used to fund a $300 million increase in revenues. Consolidated cash provided (used) by net investing activities was $168.3 million in 1993 versus ($25.4) million in 1992. Consolidated investing activities in 1993 reflect $156.6 million of proceeds from the ANTEC Initial Offering, net receipts from the liquidation of the Company's equity investment in Q-TEL of $23.7 million and proceeds from the sale of miscellaneous marketable securities and other investments. Consolidated cash used for net financing activities was ($234.3) million for the year ended 1993 in comparison to ($809.4) million for the year ended 1992. The 1993 and 1992 periods include the paydown of a substantial amount of senior and subordinated debt. Cash from discontinued operations, net was $117.4 million in 1993 versus $865.5 million in 1992. Discontinued operations in 1993 and 1992 include net proceeds from the sale of most of the Company's other transportation services assets of $46 million and $8 million, respectively, and cash received from the reduction of assets at Signal Capital of $82 million in both years. Discontinued operations in 1992 reflect (1) the cash flow of the rail car leasing operations; (2) $1.33 billion of borrowings, including the issuance of $998 million of 7 3/4% Notes (the "Trust Notes"), by Rail and (3) subsequent paydown of $588 million of other rail car leasing debt. Based upon discussions with financial analysts and similar disclosures provided by competitors of Itel's businesses, the Company considers operating income before amortization of goodwill to be meaningful and readily comparable measures of Itel's relative performance. Consolidated results in 1993 and 1992 included ANTEC, while 1994 consolidated results present ANTEC as an equity investment. Itel reduced its interest in ANTEC to approximately 30% of ANTEC's outstanding shares in 1994, with a substantial impact on the 11 12 comparability of consolidated results. Operating income before amortization of goodwill by the Company's major business segments is presented in the following table.

Consolidated net interest expense and other was $27.1 million, $58.9 million and $77.9 million for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992 include $5.0 million and $3.5 million, respectively, of net interest expense and other relating to ANTEC. The Company has entered into interest rate agreements which effectively fix or cap, for a period of time, the interest rate on a portion of its floating rate obligations. As a result, the interest rate on approximately 45% of debt obligations at December 31, 1994 is fixed or capped. The impact of interest rate swaps and caps on interest expense, net for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 was to increase interest expense by approximately $6.0 million, $10.8 million and $15.2 million, respectively. Financings In November 1994, Itel obtained a $115 million senior bank term loan facility ("Corporate Loan") from a group of banks. The Corporate Loan is secured by the Company's investments in the capital stock of Anixter and ANTEC. To the extent amounts are borrowed, the Corporate Loan matures annually as follows: 1995 - none; 1996 - $29 million; and 1997 - $86 million. The Corporate Loan had no outstanding borrowings at December 31, 1994. In March 1994, the Company increased Anixter's secured domestic revolving line of credit to $345 million, lowered the interest rate spreads and extended the expiration to 1997. The revolving line of credit is non-recourse to Itel and may be extended for two additional one-year periods at the option of the lenders. At December 31, 1994, in addition to the Corporate Loan, $144.8 million was available under the bank revolving lines of credit at Anixter, of which $56.4 million was available to Itel for general corporate purposes. Debt Maturities and Repayments In 1994, the Company repaid the entire $250 million Term Loan with proceeds from the sale of Itel's rail car leasing business and the ANTEC Offering. The Term Loan was originally obtained in December 1993 and was secured by the Company's investments in the capital stock of Anixter, ANTEC and Signal Capital and its investment in marketable securities. In 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, the Company retired $221 million, $337 million and $460 million of the face value of subordinated debt at Itel. NOL Carryforwards As of December 31, 1994, the Company had no NOL or ITC carryforwards for Federal income tax purposes due to the sale of the Company's rail car leasing business which exhausted virtually all carryforwards existing at December 31, 1993. As of December 31, 1993, the Company had cumulative NOL carryforwards of approximately $345 million that were set to expire primarily in 1995 through 2007, and ITC carryforwards of approximately $16 million that were set to expire between 1994 and 2001. Certain of these carryforwards have not been examined by the IRS and, therefore, may still be subject to adjustment. The availability of tax benefits of NOL and ITC carryforwards to reduce the Company's Federal income tax liability is subject to various limitations under the Code. In addition, at December 31, 1994, various foreign subsidiaries of Itel had 12 13 aggregate cumulative NOL carryforwards for foreign income tax purposes of approximately $44 million which are subject to various tax provisions of each respective country and expire primarily between 1995 and 2003. Liquidity Considerations and Other Certain debt agreements entered into by Itel's subsidiaries contain various restrictions including restrictions on payments to Itel. Such restrictions have not had nor are expected to have an adverse impact on Itel's ability to meet its cash obligations. At December 31, 1994, the market value of the Company's investment in marketable equity securities was below adjusted cost by $11.1 million. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company's investment in marketable equity securities has been reflected at market value in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company continuously evaluates the market value of its marketable securities held for investment in relation to its historical cost to determine whether a decline in market value is "other than temporary". When such decline in market value is deemed to be other than temporary, the Company records such decline as a charge against income. In 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company wrote down the value of its investments in marketable equity securities by $34.4 million, $25.0 million and $25.0 million, respectively. CAPITAL EXPENDITURES Consolidated capital expenditures were $17.2 million, $13.4 million and $8.0 million for 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Company has experienced increased revenues due to the continued growth of the U.S. wiring systems and its continuing worldwide expansion. While the Company continues to believe that its revenue base will grow and its worldwide expansion will result in both increased revenues and operating profits, there can be no assurance of future financial performance. Anixter competes with distributors and manufacturers who sell products directly or through existing distribution channels to end users or other resellers. In addition, Anixter's future performance could be subject to economic downturns and possibly rapid changes in applicable technologies. In July 1994, Itel sold substantially all its remaining interest in its fleet of rail cars. Results of operations reflect the rail car leasing business as discontinued operations. In May 1994, Itel sold in a public offering 4.0 million shares of common stock of ANTEC. As a result of the ANTEC Offering, Itel's ownership of ANTEC common stock was reduced from 53% to approximately 33%. In addition, in November 1994, ANTEC issued approximately 2.0 million shares of ANTEC common stock in connection with an acquisition which lowered Itel's ownership to approximately 30%. The Company views ANTEC as a long-term investment, subject to change should future circumstances warrant. Due to the above sale and issuance of ANTEC common stock, all 1994 financial information reflects ANTEC as an equity investment. All prior financial information reflects ANTEC as a consolidated subsidiary of Itel. Quarter ended December 31, 1994: Income (loss) from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 1994 was $16.0 million compared with ($15.0) million in the fourth quarter of 1993. Results in the fourth quarter of 1994 include a $10.8 million pre-tax gain relating to ANTEC's issuance of common stock in connection with an acquisition in November 1994. The fourth quarter of 1993 includes pre-tax charges associated with the write-down of marketable equity securities of $25.0 million. Net income (loss) was $13.0 million and ($22.6) million in the fourth quarter of 1994 and 1993, respectively. The Company retired or called for redemption approximately $206.0 million of its subordinated and senior debt resulting in an extraordinary net loss of ($5.1) million in the fourth quarter of 1993. Anixter revenues during the fourth quarter of 1994 increased 36% to $490.6 million from $359.7 million for the fourth quarter of 1993 resulting from the continued growth of the North America business and continued penetration in the expansion countries. North America revenues in the fourth quarter of 1994 increased 37% to $380.7 million due to strong demand for its communications products and focused marketing 13 14 efforts on its electrical wiring systems products. Europe revenues in the fourth quarter of 1994 increased to $92.1 million from $72.4 million due primarily to increased market penetration, particularly in networking products and structured wiring systems, across all geographic territories. Asia and Latin America revenues more than doubled to $17.8 million in the fourth quarter of 1994 due to increased market penetration, strong product demand and expansion into new territories. Revenues by Anixter's major markets are presented in the following table.

ANTEC revenues, which were reflected in the consolidated results in 1993 but not in 1994, increased 22% to $134.6 million in the fourth quarter of 1994 from $110.6 million in the fourth quarter of 1993 due to 1994 acquisitions and international growth somewhat offset by TCI capital spending reductions. Anixter operating income before amortization of goodwill increased 38% to $22.6 million in 1994 from $16.4 million due primarily to significantly improved volume and earnings in North America. North America operating income before goodwill increased 38% to $21.1 million in the fourth quarter of 1994 due to volume related economies of scale somewhat offset by increased spending for new service and logistics initiatives. Europe operating income before goodwill in the fourth quarter of 1994 increased to $2.6 million from $2.2 million due primarily to continued expansion and volume related economies of scale. Asia and Latin America operating loss was ($1.1) million in the fourth quarter of 1994 and 1993 due to Latin America reaching breakeven volume levels and continued expansion into new Asian markets. Aggregate gross start-up losses in expansion markets, which have yet to achieve profitable operations in their respective quarters, were ($2.9) million and ($1.5) million in the fourth quarter of 1994 and 1993, respectively.

ANTEC operating income before amortization of goodwill, which was reflected in the consolidated results in 1993 but not in 1994, increased 38% to $9.8 million from $7.1 million in the fourth quarter of 1993 due to increased volume. Consolidated net interest expense and other for the fourth quarter declined to $8.4 million from $13.7 million in 1993 due primarily to the use of proceeds from the continued monetization of Itel's non-core assets to significantly reduce high-cost debt. Year ended December 31, 1994: Income from continuing operations was $46.2 million in 1994 compared with $28.8 million in 1993. Results in 1994 include a $48.2 million pre-tax gain on the ANTEC Offering and a $10.8 million pre-tax gain relating to ANTEC's issuance of common stock in connection with an acquisition in November 1994. Results of continuing operations in 1993 principally include an $84.5 million pre-tax gain on the ANTEC Initial Offering and a $6.4 million pre-tax gain on other investments offset by a pre-tax loss of approximately $19.1 million relating to the liquidation of the Company's equity investment in Q-TEL. Results of continuing operations in 1994 and 1993 include pre-tax charges associated with the sale and write-down of marketable equity securities of $39.6 million and $25.0 million, respectively. Net income (loss) was $246.9 million and ($1.2) million for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Income from 14 15 discontinued operations in 1994 reflects a $202.0 million after-tax gain from the sale of the Company's rail car leasing business. The Company retired or called for redemption a significant amount of its subordinated and senior debt resulting in an extraordinary net loss of ($16.0) million in 1993. Anixter revenues in 1994 rose 30% to $1.7 billion resulting from the continued growth of the North American business and the continuing penetration in Europe, Asia, and Latin America. North America revenues in 1994 increased 28% to $1.4 billion due to strong demand for its communications business, focused marketing efforts in its electrical wiring systems business and increased Canadian wire and cable revenues. Europe revenues in 1994 increased to $316.8 million from $244.6 million due primarily to continued expansion and increased market penetration, particularly in networking products, across all geographic territories. Asia and Latin America revenues more than doubled to $55.3 million in 1994 due to increased market penetration, strong product demand and expansion into new territories.

ANTEC revenues, which were reflected in the consolidated results in 1993 but not in 1994, increased 29% to $553.5 million in 1994 from $427.6 million in 1993 due to 1994 acquisitions and international growth. Anixter operating income before amortization of goodwill for 1994 increased 32% to $80.6 million due primarily to significantly improved volume and earnings in North America. North America operating income before goodwill increased 25% to $76.3 million in 1994 due to volume related economies of scale and termination of the equity participation plan and catalog business in 1993 somewhat offset by increased spending for new service and logistics initiatives. Europe operating income before goodwill in 1994 nearly doubled to $6.9 million from $3.5 million due primarily to continued expansion and volume related economies of scale and a positive earnings contribution from Continental Europe. Asia and Latin America operating loss decreased to ($2.6) million from ($4.1) million in 1993 due to reduced start-up losses in Asia and Latin America reaching breakeven volume levels. Aggregate gross start-up losses in expansion markets, which have yet to achieve profitable operations in their respective years, were ($6.7) million in 1994 compared to ($8.6) million in 1993.

ANTEC operating income before amortization of goodwill, which was reflected in the consolidated results in 1993 but not in 1994, increased 67% to $42.2 million from $25.2 million in 1993 due to increased volume. Consolidated net interest expense and other for 1994 declined to $27.1 million from $58.9 million in 1993 due to the use of proceeds from the continued monetization of Itel's non-core assets to significantly reduce high-cost subordinated debt. 15 16 Year ended December 31, 1993: Income (loss) from continuing operations was $28.8 million in 1993 compared with ($45.8) million in 1992. Results of continuing operations in 1993 principally include an $84.5 million pre-tax gain on the ANTEC Initial Offering and a $6.4 million pre-tax gain on other investments offset by a pre-tax loss of approximately $19.1 million relating to the liquidation of the Company's equity investment in Q-TEL. Results of continuing operations in both 1993 and 1992 include pre-tax charges associated with the write-down of marketable equity securities of $25.0 million. Net loss was ($1.2) million and ($104.3) million for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The loss from discontinued operations in 1992 includes a ($16.1) million net loss on the discontinuance of the other transportation services segment. The Company retired or called for redemption a significant amount of its subordinated and senior debt resulting in an extraordinary net loss of ($16.0) million and ($20.4) million in 1993 and 1992, respectively. Anixter revenues rose 14% to $1.3 billion resulting from the continued growth of the North America electrical wiring systems and networking businesses and the continuing worldwide expansion. North America revenues in 1993 increased 13% to $1.1 billion due to strong demand for communications products and more modest growth in its electrical wiring systems. Europe revenues in the 1993 increased to $244.6 million from $217.9 million due primarily to continued expansion and increased market penetration and the impact of an acquired company partially offset by currency fluctuations which caused dollar converted sales to grow at a lesser rate than local currency sales. Asia and Latin America revenues more than doubled to $24.4 million in 1993 due to increased market penetration and expansion into new territories. Revenues by Anixter's major markets are presented in the following table.

ANTEC revenues increased 42% to $427.6 million in 1993 compared to 1992 due to the upswing in spending by cable system operators and the acceptance of products developed by ANTEC. Consolidated operating income was $68.2 million compared with $42.6 million in 1992. Consolidated operating income before amortization of goodwill increased to $77.0 million from $51.0 million in 1992. Anixter operating income before amortization of goodwill for 1993 increased 36% to $61.1 million due to improved margins and volume at North America distribution offset slightly by increased spending in other markets. North America operating income before goodwill increased 46% to $61.7 million in 1993 due to increased volume, improved operating efficiencies and a significant reduction in charges for the equity participation plan in 1993. Europe operating income before goodwill in 1993 increased slightly to $3.5 million from $3.3 million due primarily to continental Europe reaching breakeven volumes partially offset by decreased U.K. profitability resulting from reorganization activities. Asia and Latin America operating loss increased to ($4.1) million in 1993 from ($.9) million in 1992 due to increased start-up losses due to establishing new operations in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Australia and Mexico. Aggregate gross start-up losses in expansion markets, which have yet to achieve profitable operations in their respective years, were ($8.6) million in 1993 compared to ($4.1) million in 1992. The 1992 period also contained special charges related to 16 17 a terminated equity participation plan. Operating income (loss) before amortization of goodwill by Anixter's major markets is presented in the following table.

(4.1) (.9) ----- ----- $61.1 $44.8 ===== =====
ANTEC operating income before amortization of goodwill increased 70% to $25.2 million in 1993 from $14.8 million in 1992 reflecting significantly increased volume. Consolidated net interest expense and other for 1993 declined to $58.9 million from $77.9 million in 1992 due to the use of proceeds from the 1992 rail car transaction and the continued monetization of Itel's non-core assets to significantly reduce high-cost debt. Impact of Inflation: Inflation has slowed in recent years and is currently not an important determinant of Anixter's results of operations due, in part, to rapid inventory turnover. ITEM 8.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE. Not applicable. 17 18 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS The Board of Directors and Stockholders Itel Corporation We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Itel Corporation as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits. 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 and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Itel Corporation at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein. Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental balance sheets at December 31, 1994 (page 20) and supplemental statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 (page 22) and supplemental statements of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1994 (page 24) are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the consolidated financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

See accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements. 25 26 ITEL CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Itel Corporation ("Itel") and its majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively "the Company") after elimination of intercompany transactions. Reclassifications: Due to the May 1994 sale of ANTEC Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively "ANTEC") common stock (see Note 5), the 1994 consolidated financial statements and related notes reflect ANTEC as an equity investment. All prior consolidated financial statements and related notes reflect ANTEC as a consolidated subsidiary of Itel. In addition, due to the 1994 sale of the Company's remaining interests in its rail cars (see Note 3), the Company's investment in its rail car leasing business has been reclassified in the consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Certain 1993 and prior information has been reclassified to conform to the 1994 presentation. Cash and equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying amount of cash and equivalents approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Inventories: Inventories are valued principally at the lower of average, approximating first-in, first-out, cost or market. Depreciation: The Company provides for depreciation of property principally on the straight-line basis over various useful lives including 25 to 40 years for buildings and improvements, 3 to 10 years for equipment and the term of the lease for leasehold improvements. Goodwill: Goodwill relates to the excess of cost over net tangible assets of businesses acquired. The Company at each balance sheet date evaluates, for recognition of potential impairment, its recorded goodwill against the current and undiscounted expected future operating income before goodwill amortization expense of the entities to which goodwill relates. In the opinion of management, goodwill at Anixter Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively "Anixter") has not diminished in value since their date of acquisition, and, having an indefinite life, is not subject to amortization. However, in accordance with Opinion 17 of the Accounting Principles Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, goodwill is being amortized over a period of 40 years using the straight-line method. Marketable equity securities available-for-sale: Marketable equity securities available-for-sale are reflected in the balance sheet at fair value as of the balance sheet date. The difference between cost and market is reflected in stockholders' equity net of deferred tax benefit. Realized gains (losses) on dispositions of securities are determined using the average cost method. Realized pre-tax gains (losses), before related interest carrying costs, were ($5.2) million, $.3 million and zero in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Aggregate unrealized pre-tax loss on marketable equity securities available-for-sale amounted to $11.1 million at December 31, 1994 (see Note 6). Investment in ANTEC: Dilution of the Company's ownership position in ANTEC which results from the issuance of shares of common stock by ANTEC is treated as if an equivalent percentage of ownership had been disposed of by the Company. To the extent ANTEC issues shares of common stock at amounts per share in excess of or less than the Company's average per share carrying value, gains or losses from such changes in ownership are recorded in income when such issuances occur. In May 1994, Itel sold 4.0 million shares of ANTEC common stock in a public offering (the "ANTEC Offering"). As a result of the ANTEC Offering, Itel's ownership of ANTEC common stock was reduced from 53% to 33%. In addition, in November 1994, ANTEC issued approximately 2.0 million shares of ANTEC common stock in connection with an acquisition which lowered Itel's ownership to approximately 30%. The Company reflects ANTEC as an equity investment in the 1994 consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 1994, the market value of Itel's investment in ANTEC was $123.6 million. 26 27 ITEL CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) Interest rate agreements: The Company has entered into interest rate agreements which effectively fix or cap, for a period of time, the interest rate on a portion of its floating rate obligations. As a result, the interest rate on approximately 45% of debt obligations at December 31, 1994 is fixed or capped. At December 31, 1994, the Company had five interest rate cap agreements outstanding with a notional amount aggregating $125 million. These interest rate cap agreements effectively entitle the Company to receive from the banks the amount by which the Corporation's interest payments on $125 million of its floating rate debt exceed 6 3/4%. The $1.6 million premium paid for these interest rate cap agreements are included in other assets and are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the respective interest rate cap agreements which expire in 1996 and 1997. Payments received as a result of the interest rate cap agreements are recognized as a reduction of interest expense on its floating rate debt. The carrying value and the fair value of these interest rate cap agreements are $1.1 million and $3.6 million, respectively, at December 31, 1994. The fair value of interest rate cap agreements is the estimated amount that the Company would pay to enter into the interest rate agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates. At December 31, 1994, no interest rate swap agreements were outstanding. The impact of interest rate agreements on interest expense, net for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 was to increase interest expense by approximately $6.0 million, $10.8 million and $15.2 million, respectively. Foreign currency forward contracts: The Company has purchased short-term foreign currency forward contracts to minimize the effect of fluctuating foreign currencies on its reported income. The impact of these foreign currency forward contracts on the income statement was insignificant in 1994, 1993 and 1992. The forward contracts are revalued at current foreign exchange rates, with the changes in valuation reflected directly in income. At December 31, 1994, the Company had approximately $16.0 million in foreign currency forward contracts outstanding. Revenue recognition: Sales and related cost of sales are recognized primarily upon shipment of products. Advertising and sales promotion: Advertising and sales promotion costs are expensed as incurred. Income taxes: Provisions for income taxes include deferred taxes resulting from temporary differences in determining income for financial and tax purposes using the liability method. Such temporary differences result primarily from differences in the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Income (loss) per common share: Income (loss) per share amounts are based upon results from operations, and in 1993 and 1992, after deducting preferred dividends earned and the amortization of preferred stock discounts. Weighted average common and common equivalent shares were 32,045,000, 30,132,000 and 29,085,000 for 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. NOTE 2. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION Continuing operations of the Company paid interest, including that portion allocated to discontinued operations, of approximately $52.4 million, $96.7 million and $152.4 million for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Approximately $27.8 million, $7.0 million and $1.2 million was paid for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. In a non-cash transaction Itel's Series C convertible preferred stock ("Preferred Stock") was converted into approximately 3.8 million shares of Common Stock in 1993. NOTE 3. DISCONTINUED AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE On July 25, 1994, Itel sold 99.5% of its remaining interests in its rail cars for $35.0 million in cash and $169.5 million in notes receivable for an aggregate purchase price of $204.5 million. The buyer prepaid all the notes and related interest in October 1994. The Company's remaining interest in the rail cars was sold in 27 28 ITEL CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) October for cash of approximately $1.0 million. The net gain on the sale of the Company's entire interest in rail cars was approximately $202.0 million. The total cash proceeds of $205.5 million were used to: (1) repay the $150 million Corporate senior bank term ("Term Loan"); (2) pay the related income tax liability of approximately $25 million caused by the sale which resulted after utilization of the Company's net operating loss ("NOL") and investment tax credit ("ITC") carryforwards; and (3) other general corporate purposes including the purchase of the Company's common stock. The finance business of Signal Capital Corporation ("Signal Capital") has been included as assets held for sale since acquisition in 1988. Subsequent to the purchase, Itel sold or liquidated portions of the portfolio including $855 million in 1989, $78 million in 1990, $157 million in 1991, $82 million in 1992, $82 million in 1993 and $60 million in 1994. The $113.8 million net portfolio at December 31, 1994 represents approximately 8% of the original acquired Signal Capital portfolio. The acquired Signal Capital portfolio is being liquidated and no material amounts of new loans or investments are being made by Signal Capital. Proceeds were used to repay indebtedness. The Company has had and continues to have discussions with third parties for the sale of substantial portions of the acquired Signal Capital portfolio of loans and leases. Absent such transactions, which the Company continues to pursue, such orderly liquidation is expected to continue over approximately the next two years. The Company continues to reduce the acquired Signal Capital portfolio in an orderly manner that maximizes its value to Itel shareholders. In 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company sold substantially all of its other transportation services assets for aggregate net cash proceeds of $64 million. The Company recorded a $26 million pre-tax loss in 1992 in discontinued operations to reflect the disposal of this segment. The results of operations of rail car leasing business, the other transportation services segment, other previously sold businesses and the results of the acquired Signal Capital portfolio have been included in discontinued operations net of allocated corporate interest expense. Allocated corporate interest expense amounted to $6.3 million, $19.0 million and $58.0 million for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Summarized financial results of discontinued operations were as follows:

NOTE 4. NON-RECURRING ITEMS Non-recurring items in 1994 reflect a $48.2 million pre-tax gain on the ANTEC Offering relating to the May 1994 public offering of shares of common stock of ANTEC. Itel sold 4.0 million shares of ANTEC common stock at $21.75 per share. Net proceeds from the ANTEC Offering were approximately $83 million. Non-recurring items in 1994 also reflect a $10.8 million pre-tax gain relating to ANTEC's issuance of approximately 2.0 million shares of ANTEC common stock in connection with an acquisition in November 1994. Itel provided income taxes relating to the recognized pre-tax book gains. Non-recurring items in 1993 reflect an $84.5 million pre-tax gain on the 1993 initial public offering of shares of common stock of ANTEC (the "Initial Offering"). Itel provided income taxes relating to the recognized pre-tax book gain. Itel and ANTEC sold approximately 4.0 million and 5.4 million shares of ANTEC common stock, respectively, at $18 per share. Net proceeds from the Initial Offering to Itel, after considering the redemption by ANTEC of preferred shares owned by Itel, were approximately $97 million. Non-recurring items in 1993 also reflect a $6.4 million pre-tax gain on other investments. The non-recurring pre-tax gains in 1993 were offset by a pre-tax loss of approximately $19.1 million relating to the liquidation of the Company's equity investment in Q-TEL. The remaining written-down equity investment and loans due from Q-TEL were liquidated during the latter half of 1993 and early 1994. 29 30 ITEL CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) NOTE 5. SUMMARIZED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF ANTEC The Company has an approximately 30% ownership interest in ANTEC and accounts for ANTEC under the equity method in 1994.

NOTE 6. MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE In 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company wrote down the value of its investments in marketable equity securities, including Catellus which was sold in 1994, by $34.4 million, $25.0 million and $25.0 million, respectively. The Company has reduced the pre-tax unrealized losses on marketable equity securities available-for-sale included in stockholders' equity by $3.9 million at December 31, 1994 to reflect a deferred tax benefit due to the Company's current ability to either (a) carryback all December 31, 1994 unrealized capital losses to previously generated capital gains or (b) generate capital gains by the future sale of capital assets to offset December 31, 1994 unrealized capital losses. 30 31 ITEL CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) NOTE 7. EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS In 1993 and 1992, the Company retired or called for redemption senior and subordinated debt resulting in pre-tax extraordinary losses of ($26.2) million and ($32.9) million, respectively.

Itel-- Corporate Loan: On November 10, 1994, Itel obtained a $115.0 million senior bank term loan facility ("Corporate Loan") from a group of banks. The Corporate Loan is secured by the Company's investments in the capital stock of Anixter and ANTEC aggregating $337 million at net book value at December 31, 1994. To the extent amounts are borrowed, the Corporate Loan matures annually as follows: 1995--none; 1996--$29.0 million; and 1997--$86.0 million. Floating and fixed interest rate options are available based on the prime or LIBOR rates. At December 31, 1994, all $115.0 million was available. 31 32 ITEL CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) Subsidiaries-- Bank revolving lines of credit: Anixter has various secured revolving bank lines of credit worldwide which provide for up to $409.3 million of borrowings contingent on the level of certain assets. At December 31, 1994, $260.5 million was borrowed and $144.8 million was available under the bank revolving lines of credit at Anixter, of which $56.4 million was available for general corporate purposes. These lines of credit reduce or mature at various dates from 1996 through 1997. The $345.0 million domestic revolving line of credit, which matures in 1997, may be extended for two additional one-year periods at the option of the lender. Floating and fixed interest rate options, based on the prime or LIBOR rate, are available under these facilities and the average interest rate at December 31, 1994 was 6.8%. Commitment fees of 1/8% to 1/2% are payable on the unused portion of these revolving lines of credit. The 1994 commitment fees paid were insignificant. Other-- Certain debt agreements entered into by Itel's subsidiaries contain various restrictions including restrictions on payments to Itel. These debt agreements are secured by certain assets of the subsidiaries aggregating approximately $600 million at December 31, 1994. Itel has guaranteed certain debt and other obligations of Anixter. Restricted net assets of subsidiaries were approximately $300 million at December 31, 1994. Certain of Itel's loan agreements or indentures require that Itel maintain a minimum net worth and interest coverage, use the proceeds of certain asset sales to repay debt, and limit Itel's ability to make capital investments, incur debt, declare dividends or make distributions to holders of any shares of capital stock, or redeem or otherwise acquire such shares of the Company. Approximately $393.9 million is available for such distributions under the most restrictive of these covenants. Aggregate annual maturities of debt are as follows: 1995--none; 1996--$43.4 million; 1997--$220.1 million; 1998--none; 1999--none; $17.0 million thereafter. The fair value of the Company's debt was $280.5 million at December 31, 1994. The carrying amount of the Company's debt approximates fair value because the underlying instruments are at variable rates which reprice frequently. NOTE 10. INCOME TAXES Itel and its U.S. subsidiaries file their Federal income tax return on a consolidated basis. As of December 31, 1994, the Company had no NOL or ITC carryforwards for Federal income tax purposes due to the sale of the Company's rail car leasing business which exhausted virtually all carryforwards existing at December 31, 1993. As of December 31, 1993, the Company had cumulative NOL carryforwards of approximately $345 million that were set to expire primarily in 1995 through 2007, and ITC carryforwards of approximately $16 million that were set to expire between 1994 and 2001. Certain of these carryforwards have not been examined by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and, therefore, may still be subject to adjustment. The availability of tax benefits of NOL and ITC carryforwards to reduce the Company's Federal income tax liability is subject to various limitations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). In addition, at December 31, 1994, various foreign subsidiaries of Itel had aggregate cumulative NOL carryforwards for foreign income tax purposes of approximately $44 million which are subject to various provisions of each respective country and expire primarily between 1995 and 2003. Domestic income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes was $70.6 million, $68.9 million and ($49.0) million for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Foreign loss from continuing operations before income taxes was ($.6) million, ($12.8) million and ($11.3) million for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. 32 33 ITEL CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary differences between amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts as measured by tax laws. Deferred income taxes also result from differences between the fair value of assets acquired in business combinations accounted for as purchases and their tax bases. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax liabilities and assets were as follows:
DECEMBER 31, ---------------- 1994 1993 ------ ------ (IN MILLIONS) Deferred tax liabilities: Tax over book depreciation........................................ $ 9.4 $273.1 Other deferred tax liabilities.................................... 74.7 69.9 ------ ------ Total deferred tax liabilities................................. 84.1 343.0 Deferred tax assets: Domestic NOL carryforwards........................................ -- 133.6 ITC carryforwards................................................. -- 16.1 Foreign NOL carryforwards......................................... 15.5 19.7 Unrealized losses on investments.................................. 30.0 47.4 Other deferred tax assets......................................... 49.3 56.7 ------ ------ Total deferred tax assets...................................... 94.8 273.5 Valuation allowance on deferred tax assets........................

At December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, consolidated valuation allowances for deferred tax assets were $12.5 million, $30.1 million and $33.1 million, respectively, including valuation allowances on foreign NOLs. 33 34 ITEL CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) Income tax (expense) benefit relating to continuing operations was comprised of:

NOTE 11. CONTINGENCIES AND LITIGATION In the ordinary course of business, Itel and its subsidiaries become involved as plaintiffs or defendants in various legal proceedings. The claims and counterclaims in such litigation, including those for punitive damages, individually in certain cases and in the aggregate, involve amounts which may be material. However, 34 35 ITEL CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) it is the opinion of the Company's management, based upon the advice of its counsel, that the ultimate disposition of pending litigation will not be material. NOTE 12. LEASE COMMITMENTS The majority of the Company's office and warehouse facilities and equipment are leased under operating leases. Certain of these leases are long-term operating leases and expire at various dates through 2014. Minimum lease commitments under operating leases at December 31, 1994 are as follows: 1995 - $22.0 million; 1996 - $19.2 million; 1997 - $13.0 million; 1998 - $7.6 million; 1999 - $4.6 million; beyond 1999 - $15.5 million. Total rental expense was $23.3 million, $21.5 million and $18.9 million in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. NOTE 13. PENSION PLANS, POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS AND OTHER BENEFITS The Company's various pension plans are non-contributory and cover substantially all full-time domestic employees. Retirement benefits are provided based on compensation as defined in the plans. The Company's policy is to fund these plans as required by ERISA and the Code. Assets of the Company's plans at fair value were $36.7 million and $44.0 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Projected benefit obligations of the Company's plans were $35.7 million and $57.2 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The accumulated benefit obligations of the Company's plans were $46.1 million and $44.5 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The weighted-average assumed discount rate used to measure the projected benefit obligation was 7.8% and 6.8% at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Pension expense, including the cost of 401(k) plans, for 1994, 1993 and 1992 was insignificant. The Company's liability for post-retirement benefits other than pensions is insignificant. NOTE 14. PREFERRED STOCK AND COMMON STOCK Itel has authority to issue 15 million shares of Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share. In 1993, the outstanding Preferred Stock was converted into approximately 3.8 million shares of Common Stock. At December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, 29,430,000, 33,010,000 and 28,080,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively, were issued and outstanding. In connection with all Itel employee stock plans described below, 2,052,266 shares were reserved for issuance at December 31, 1994. Stock options and stock grants-- Itel has Employee Stock Incentive Plans ("ESIP") which at their inception authorized an aggregate of 5.7 million stock options or restricted grants. In addition, Itel has a Director Stock Option Plan ("DSOP") authorizing an aggregate of .2 million stock options. Substantially all options and grants under these plans have been at fair market value or higher. One-third of the options granted become exercisable each year after the year of grant (except in the case of director options which vest fully in six months) and the options expire ten years after the date of grant. Additionally, Itel has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") covering most employees. Participants can request that up to 10% of their base compensation be applied toward the purchase of Common Stock under Itel's ESPP. The exercise price is the lower of 85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the date of grant or at the later exercise date (currently one year). Under the ESIP, DSOP and ESPP, total options currently exercisable at December 31, 1994 and 1993 were 414,627 and 763,336, respectively. 35 36 ITEL CORPORATION NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) The following table summarizes the 1994 activity under the ESIP, DSOP and ESPP.
ESIP DSOP ESPP EXERCISE OPTIONS OPTIONS OPTIONS PRICE --------- ------- ------- --------------- Balance at December 31, 1993.................... 1,329,039 100,000 90,563 $ 9.50 - $30.00 Grants during 1994.............................. 182,500 35,000 75,622 $26.67 - $33.29 Exercised.......................................

BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company in 1994 is engaged in one principal area of business: distribution of wiring systems products for voice, data and video networks and electrical power applications (Anixter).

Export sales are insignificant.

Foreign operations' revenues were 29%, 22% and 24% of consolidated revenues in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Foreign operations' operating income (loss) were negatively impacted for all years due to economies of scale and start-up losses in expansion markets. Aggregate start-up losses in expansion markets were ($6.7) million, ($8.6) million and ($4.1) million in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, as Anixter continues to penetrate new markets in Europe, Asia and Latin America. 39 40 SUMMARY QUARTERLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) The following tables summarize the Company's quarterly financial information.

For the purposes of complying with the amendments to the rules governing Form S-8 (effective July 13, 1990) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Registrant hereby undertakes as follows, which undertaking shall be incorporated by reference into the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-8 Nos. 2-93173 (filed September 30, 1987), 33-13486 (filed April 15, 1987), 33-21656 (filed May 3, 1988) and 33-60676 (filed April 5, 1993): Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provision, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. 45 46 ITEL CORPORATION SCHEDULE I--CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF REGISTRANT ITEL CORPORATION (PARENT COMPANY) BALANCE SHEETS (IN THOUSANDS)

50 EX-10.2 2 MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN 1 EXHIBIT 10.2 ITEL CORPORATION MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN ELIGIBILITY: Participants in the Management Incentive Plan (the "Plan") shall be the Chief Executive Officer and such other executive officers of Itel Corporation ("Itel") as shall be selected each calendar year for participation in the Plan by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Itel (the "Board") or a similar committee of the Board comprised of "outside directors" as that term is defined by regulations issued by the Internal Revenue Service under the provisions of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 limiting the deductibility of executive compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Committee"). TARGETS: Each year each participant shall be assigned a Target expressed as a percentage of the participant's base compensation for the year ("Salary"). Targets may be from 100% to 20% of Salary. OBJECTIVES: Each year the Committee shall establish financial objectives for the year (the "Objectives") and the percent of Target earned by levels of achievement of each Objective. The Committee shall establish Targets and Objectives during the first 90 days of the year or such earlier time as the outcome of the Objectives is substantially uncertain. The Objectives may be any one or any combination of the following: The operating, pretax or net earnings of Itel, a subsidiary, a division or business unit thereof, or an other entity where there is a significant investment and opportunity to influence performance; return on capital, tangible or total, employed by any of these entities as measured by any of these earnings; or the realization of specified proceeds from specific dispositions or dispositions in general by any of these entities. If multiple Objectives are established, the Committee shall assign a relative weighting to each Objective. AWARDS: Amounts earned under the Plan shall be determined and paid by the Committee as soon as practicable after the end of each year. Awards may be from zero to 150% of target, but no participant may be awarded more than "$750,000" for any one year. The Committee may establish deferred arrangements for the payment of awards under the Plan and accrue interest on such deferred amounts at rates not to exceed 140% of the U.S. Treasury 10-year note rate in effect from time to time. Prior to payment of any award under the Plan for a given year, the Committee shall certify, in writing, the level of achievement of each Objective that was actually attained for such year. AUTHORITY OF COMMITTEE: The Committee has the authority and responsibility for the interpretation, administration and application of the provisions of the Plan, and the Committee's interpretations of the Plan, and all actions taken by it and determinations made by it shall be binding on all persons. No Board or Committee members shall be liable for any determination, decision or action made in good faith with respect to the Plan. EFFECTIVE DATE: Effective for 1995 and subsequent years subject to approval of the Stockholders of Itel at their next annual meeting. No participant shall be paid the compensation represented by the awards under this Plan absent such Stockholder approval. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION: The Committee may amend or terminate the Plan at any time, provided, however, that in no event shall the Committee, after the period for establishing Objectives for a year, adjust for that year any Targets, Objectives, or the percent of Target earned by levels of achievement of each Objective in a manner that would increase the amount of compensation that would otherwise be payable absent such adjustment. February 9, 1995 51 EX-10.18(D) 3 AGREEMENT DATED FEB. 9, 1995 1 EXHIBIT 10.18(D) AGREEMENT Rod F. Dammeyer ("Executive") and Itel Corporation ("Company") hereby agree as follows: 1. Company will employ Executive and Executive will be employed by Company as an executive officer of Company and such of its subsidiaries as the Company shall designate from time to time. Designation of a subsidiary of the Company as an employer of Executive ("Designated Employer") shall not be affected by whether that employer continues to be a subsidiary of the Company. Executive shall be free to engage in other business activities as long as such activities do not interfere with Executive's performance of his responsibilities under this Agreement and do not exceed Executive's activities under this Agreement. 2. The term of employment under this Agreement shall begin on January 1, 1995 and shall end on the earlier of (a) the date specified in a written notice by one party to the other, which date must be at least 2 years after the date such notice is given, or (b) December 31, 2000. 3. Minimum compensation of Executive shall be as follows: - Annual salary of $395,000. - Annual bonus opportunity of 50% to 112.5% of salary with a target of 75% of salary. - Such long-term incentive opportunities as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors in its good faith judgment shall determine from time to time to be appropriate. - Medical, life insurance, disability, and financial planning benefits equal to those currently provided by the Company or its subsidiary, Anixter Inc., as those benefits may be modified from time to time, provided that Executive's salary shall be deemed to be $625,000 per year for purposes of determining the level of his life insurance and disability benefits. - A retirement benefit under the Company's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan provided that Executive's Final Average Compensation shall be deemed to be $1,100,000 for purposes of determining the level of his benefits under that plan. 4. Offset against the compensation otherwise payable to Executive by the Company shall be the compensation payable to the Executive by any Designated Employer. 5. Upon completion of his employment pursuant to this Agreement and the concurrent or subsequent termination, by resignation or otherwise, of his employment by the Company, but not otherwise not withstanding the provisions of the Agreement between the parties, dated January 1, 1992, Executive (a) except in the case of any option which expressly states it is not subject to this Agreement, shall be fully vested in all options granted to him by the Company, shall be protected by adjustment of exercise prices and number of covered shares against dilution by any extraordinary cash dividends or other actions as provided in the warrants previously granted directors of the Company, and shall have until the earlier of the specific expiration date stated in each option granted to him by the Company or the date two years after termination of his employment to exercise that option; (b) shall receive a vested benefit in the Company's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan as if a "change of control" shall have occurred at such time; and (c) shall receive the split dollar life insurance policy on his life now owned by the Company if the policy has not previously been delivered to him. 6. Performance of the obligations under this Agreement shall discharge the Company and any Designated Employer from any other obligation they may have to Executive in connection with any termination of his employment by the Company and any Designated Employer. 52 2 7. If necessary, to avoid the limitation of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code on the deductibility by the Company of the Executive's compensation, a sufficient amount of the Executive's bonus may be deferred, with fair interest, to such time that the deduction for the Executive's compensation is not so limited.
