                         Report of Independent Auditors

Board of Directors
Racing Corporation of America

We  have  audited  the  accompanying   consolidated   balance  sheet  of  Racing
Corporation  of America (a wholly owned  subsidiary of TVI Corp.) as of December
31,  1997,  and the related  consolidated  statements  of income,  stockholder's
equity and cash flows for the year then ended.  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 audit.

We conducted our audit 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 consolidated  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 audit  provides 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 Racing Corporation
of America at December 31, 1997, and the consolidated  results of its operations
and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

6 Racing Corporation of America Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1997 1. ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES ORGANIZATION Racing Corporation of America and its wholly owned subsidiary, Ellis Park Race Course, Inc. (the Company) is wholly owned by TVI Corp. (TVI), a wholly owned subsidiary of HTV Industries, Inc. (HTV). The Company is involved in various activities related to the thoroughbred racing industry, including operating a training and boarding facility in Lexington, Kentucky, and a thoroughbred horse race track in Henderson, Kentucky. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. INCOME TAXES As the Company is included in the consolidated federal income tax return of HTV, the amounts reflected as income taxes payable are due to an affiliate. Income taxes are accounted for by the Company as if it filed a separate income tax return. Deferred taxes are determined based on differences between the consolidated financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rate which is expected to be in effect when the differences reverse. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment has been recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives generally range from 20 to 40 years for buildings and 3 to 10 years for other property and equipment. 7 Racing Corporation of America Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 1. ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) ADVERTISING COSTS The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense was $230,982 and $235,153 for 1997 and 1996, respectively. 2. DEBT Long-term debt payable to banks and other third parties consists of the following at December 31, 1997: Amounts due on various equipment loans with interest rates ranging from 8.5% to 13% $ 102,793 Less Current portion 47,999 --------- $ 54,794 ========= During 1997, the Company's subsidiary entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement with The Citizens National Bank of Evansville which provides for borrowings of up to $2 million at prime plus 2% and had no outstanding balance at December 31, 1997. This revolving credit agreement expires on April 30, 2000. The credit agreement requires the Company, among other requirements, to maintain a minimum net worth of $9 million and to have net income of at least $500,000 to borrow under the credit agreement. Maturities of long-term debt are as follows: 1998 $ 47,999 1999 19,920 2000 17,786 2001 17,088 --------- $ 102,793 ========= 8 Racing Corporation of America Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 3. LEASES The Company leases certain totalisator equipment under a noncancellable operating lease expiring in 1999, which provides for contingent rentals based on a percentage of pari-mutuel handle in excess of specified minimums. Certain other equipment is also leased under noncancellable operating leases expiring in various years. Rental expense for all operating leases follows: Minimum rental $ 93,874 Contingent rentals 145,369 --------- $ 239,243 ========= Future minimum annual lease payments under noncancellable operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more at December 31, 1997, are approximately $93,874 in each of 1998 through 2000 and $31,291 in 2001. 4. INCOME TAXES Income tax expense is comprised of the following: Current--State $ 114,000 Deferred--Federal 189,500 --------- $ 303,500 ========= Income tax expense differs from the normal statutory federal income tax on the Company's pretax income principally due to state income taxes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax asset and liability include differences between the book basis and the tax basis of property and equipment and net operating loss carry forwards. At December 31, 1997, the Company has non-restricted net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $1.0 million that expire in the years 2005 through 2006. 9 Racing Corporation of America Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 5. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES During October 1997, the Company entered into a $665,000 loan agreement with TVI. The note bears interest at a rate equal to the applicable federal rate as published monthly by the IRS (approximately 6% at December 31, 1997) and is secured by land and buildings with a net book value of approximately $5,030,000 at December 31, 1997. For the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company incurred interest expense of $10,879 associated with this note. Maturities on this indebtedness are as follows: 1998 $ 280,064 1999 284,369 2000 57,639 --------- $ 622,072 ========= 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company is a party to certain claims and lawsuits with respect to various matters. Although the actual liability is not determinable as of December 31, 1997, the Company believes that any liability resulting from all lawsuits and claims in excess of amounts already provided for, should not have a material adverse effect on its financial position. The Company is liable under a contract with the Horseman's Association to make certain capital improvements. At December 31, 1997, a $413,052 liability was recorded for such capital improvements ($150,000 of which is classified as current at December 31, 1997). 7. PREFERRED STOCK The Company issued 185 shares of preferred stock in 1992 at $100,000 per share. The preferred stock has a $.01 par value per share and a value of $100,000 per share plus accrued interest in the event of liquidation. The preferred stock carries a 6% cumulative dividend. The shares are non-convertible and have no voting rights. The Company paid dividends of $1,126,000 to preferred stockholders in 1997. The aggregate amount of cumulative preferred dividends in arrears is $5,155,096 at December 31, 1997. 10 Racing Corporation of America Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 8. SUBSEQUENT EVENT On March 28, 1998, TVI executed a stock purchase agreement with Churchill Downs Incorporated (Churchill) whereby TVI agreed to sell all of its issued and outstanding common and preferred shares of capital stock of Racing Corporation of America to Churchill for $22 million. Management expects the transaction to be closed on or before April 30, 1998. 9. IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 (UNAUDITED) The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's computer programs that have time- sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or engage in similar normal business activities. Based on a recent assessment, the Company determined that it will be required to modify or replace significant portions of its software so that its computer systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. The Company presently believes that with modifications to existing software and conversions to new software, the Year 2000 Issue will not pose significant operational problems for its computer systems. However, if such modifications and conversions are not made, or are not completed timely, the Year 2000 Issue could have a material impact on the operations of the Company. The Company has not estimated the total cost of the Year 2000 project, but does not expect the cost to be material to the financial position of the Company. 11 ITEM 7.
