                     AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

       AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER dated as of December 2, 1997,
among Computer Horizons Corp., a New York corporation ("Parent"), CHC
Acquisition Corp, a California corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary
of Parent ("Sub"), CG Computer Services Corporation, a California
corporation ("CG"), and Alan R. Grushcow and Sabina Ephraim
(collectively "Stockholder"), the sole stockholders of CG.

      The Parent, the Sub, CG and the Stockholder desire that Parent
acquire CG pursuant to the merger of Sub with and into CG in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the California
Corporations Code.

      For federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the Merger,
as defined herein, shall qualify as a reorganization within the
meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code").

      For accounting purposes, it is intended as a condition of
closing that the Merger shall be accounted for as a pooling of
interests.

      The parties hereto agree as follows:

                               ARTICLE I

                 THE MERGER; THE SURVIVING CORPORATION

          Section 1.1 The Merger. In accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement and the California Corporations Code at the Effective
Time, as defined in Section 1.2 hereof, Sub shall be merged with and
into CG (the "Merger"), the separate existence of Sub shall thereupon
cease, and CG shall be the surviving corporation in the Merger (the
"Surviving Corporation") and shall continue its corporate existence
under the California Corporations Code. The Merger shall have the
effects set forth in Section 1107 of the California Corporations Code.

          Section 1.2 Effective Time of the Merger. The Merger shall
become effective at the time of filing of or at such later time
specified in, a properly executed Agreement of Merger, in the form
required by and executed in accordance with the California
Corporations Code, filed with the Secretary of State of the State of
California, in accordance with the provisions of Section 1103 of the
California Corporations Code. Such filing shall be made as soon as
practicable after the Closing (as defined in Section 1.3). When used
in this Agreement, the term "Effective Time" shall mean the date and
time at which the Merger shall become effective.

          Section 1.3 Closing. The closing of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (the "Closing") shall take place at the
offices of Proskauer Rose LLP, 1585 Broadway, New York, New York, at
10:00 a.m., local time, on the fifth business day after the day on
which all of the conditions set forth in Article VII are satisfied or
waived or on such other date and at such other time and place as
Parent and CG shall agree (the "Closing Date").

          Section 1.4 Certificate of Incorporation. The Articles of
Incorporation of Sub in effect at the Effective Time shall be the
Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until amended
in accordance with applicable law, except that the name of the
Surviving Corporation shall be "CG Computer Services Corporation." 

         Section 1.5 By-Laws. The By-Laws of Sub as in effect at the
Effective Time shall be the By-Laws of the Surviving Corporation until
amended in accordance with applicable law. 

         Section 1.6 Directors and Officers of Surviving Corporation. 

         (a)   The directors of Sub at the Effective Time shall be the
initial directors of the Surviving Corporation and shall hold office
from the Effective Time until their respective successors are duly
elected or appointed and qualified in the manner provided in the
Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Surviving Corporation or
as otherwise provided by law. 

         (b)   The officers of Sub at the Effective Time shall be the
initial officers of the Surviving Corporation and shall hold office
from the Effective Time until their respective successors are duly
elected or appointed and qualified in the manner provided in the
Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Surviving Corporation or
as otherwise provided by law. 

                              ARTICLE II 

                         CONVERSION OF SHARES 

         Section 2.1 Exchange Ratio. At the Effective Time, by virtue
of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder
thereof: 

         (a)   Each share of common stock, no par value, of CG (the
"CG Common Stock"), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time (other than shares to be canceled in accordance with
Section 2.1(b) hereof) shall be converted into (the "Conversion
Ratio") the right to receive such number of shares of the Common
Stock, par value $.10 per share, of Parent (the "Parent Common
Stock"), as is determined by dividing (i) the quotient resulting from
dividing (A) $18,500,000 by (B) the Closing Value, as defined in
Section 2.3, by (ii) the total number of shares of CG Common Stock
outstanding as of the Effective Time; provided, however, 

     (x)   if the Closing Value is less than $33.00, the Conversion
           Ratio shall be fixed at the quotient resulting from
           dividing 566,666 by the total number of shares of CG
           Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time; and 

     (y)   if the Closing Value is above $40.00, the Conversion
           Ratio shall be fixed at the quotient resulting from
           dividing 462,500 by the total number of shares of CG
           Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time 

          (b)   All shares of CG Common Stock that are held by CG as
treasury shares shall be canceled and retired and cease to exist, and
no securities of Parent or other consideration shall be delivered in
exchange therefor. 

         (c)   Each share of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share,
of Sub ("Sub Common Stock"), issued and outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one fully
paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock, no par value, of the
Surviving Corporation. 

          Section 2.2 Exchange of CG Stock. Immediately after the
Effective Time at the Closing, the holders of CG Common Stock shall
present to the Parent for cancellation a certificate or certificates
which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding
shares of CG Common Stock (the "Certificates") that were converted
pursuant to Section 2.1 into the right to receive shares of Parent
Common Stock prior to the Closing Date, and the Parent shall thereupon
deliver to such holder in exchange therefor (x) a certificate
representing that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock which
such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of
this Article II and (y) cash in lieu of any fractional shares of
Parent Common Stock to which such Stockholder is entitled pursuant to
Section 2.3, after giving effect to any required tax withholdings on
such cash payment for fractional shares. The shares of Parent Common
Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the Effective Time. 

          Section 2.3 No Fractional Securities. No certificates or
scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be
issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, and such
fractional interests shall not entitle the holder thereof to vote or
to any rights of a security holder.  In lieu of any such fractional
securities, each holder of CG Common Stock who would otherwise have
been entitled to a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock upon
surrender of such holder's Certificates will be entitled to receive,
and Parent will timely make a cash payment (without interest)
determined by multiplying (i) the fractional interest to which such
holder would otherwise be entitled (after taking into account all
shares of CG Common Stock then held of record by such holder) and (ii)
the average of the per share closing prices for Parent Common Stock on
NASDAQ for the thirty consecutive trading days ending three trading
days preceding the Closing (the "Closing Value"). 

          Section 2.4 Options. (a) Prior to the Effective Time, CG
shall, effective as of the Effective Time, cause the unexercised
portion of each outstanding stock option to purchase shares of CG
Common Stock (the "Options") that is then outstanding to be cancelled.
The holders of Options shall have the right to submit contingent (i.e.
subject to consummation of the Merger) exercises of the vested portion
of any Option and participate in the Merger by submitting to CG a duly
executed written notice of exercise and full payment of the exercise
price on or before the Closing Date. All holders properly exercising
their Options shall be entitled to receive such number of the shares
of Parent Common Stock distributed to Stockholder under Section 2.2 as
the exercised options specify. 

          (b)     Except as may be otherwise agreed to by the Parent
or Sub and CG, as of the Effective Time the provisions of any plan,
program or arrangement providing for the issuance or grant of any
interest in respect of the capital stock of CG or any of its
subsidiaries shall be deleted as of the Effective Time and no holder
of options or any participant in any option plans or any other plans,
programs or arrangements shall have any right thereunder to acquire
any equity securities of CG, the Surviving Corporation or any
subsidiary thereof. 

                             ARTICLE III 

          REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE STOCKHOLDER 

          The Stockholder, jointly and severally, represent and
warrant to Parent and Sub as follows: 

          Section 3.1 Organization. CG is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
State of California and has the corporate power to carry on its
business as it is now being conducted or presently proposed to be
conducted. CG is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do
business and is in good standing in the jurisdictions listed on
Schedule 3.1 hereto and is not required to be so qualified and in good
standing in any other jurisdiction where the character of its
properties owned or held under lease or the nature of its activities
would make such qualification necessary. 

          Section 3.2 Capitalization. 

          (a)     The authorized capital stock of CG consists of
10,000,000 shares of CG Common Stock and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred
Stock. As of the date hereof, there are 717,000 shares of CG Common
Stock and no shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, and the
Stockholder is the sole record and beneficial holder of such shares.
Such shares are owned by the Stockholder free and clear of any and all
liens, claims or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever (whether
absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) ("Liens"). All of the
issued and outstanding shares of CG Common Stock are validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable. Schedule 3.2(a) hereto lists the
individuals and entities, other than the Stockholder, who were at any
time holders of record or beneficially of (i) securities issued by CG
or (ii) Rights, as hereinafter defined. 

           (b)     Except as set forth on Schedule 3.2(b), (i) there
is no outstanding right, subscription, warrant, call, option or other
agreement or arrangement of any kind (collectively, "Rights") to
purchase or otherwise to receive from CG any of the outstanding
authorized but unissued or treasury shares of the capital stock or any
other security of CG, (ii) there is no outstanding security of any
kind convertible into or exchangeable for such capital stock and (iii)
there is no voting trust or other agreement or understanding to which
CG is a party or is bound with respect to the voting of the capital
stock of CG. Schedule 3.2 (b) sets forth the vested portion of each
outstanding option. 

          Section 3.3 No Subsidiaries; Affiliates. CG has no
Subsidiaries, as hereinafter defined, and has conducted its business
solely through CG at all times. All assets, properties and rights
relating to CG's business are held by, and all agreements, obligations
and transactions relating to CG's business have been entered into,
incurred and conducted by, CG rather than any of its Affiliates or any
of the Stockholder's Affiliates. As used in this Agreement, (i) the
term "Subsidiary" means, with respect to any party, any corporation or
other organization, whether incorporated or unincorporated, of which
(x) such party or any other Subsidiary of such party is a general
partner (excluding partnerships, the general partnership interests of
which held by such party or any Subsidiary of such party do not have a
majority of the voting interest in such partnership) or (y) at least a
majority of the securities or other interests having by their terms
ordinary voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or
others performing similar functions with respect to such corporation
or other organization is directly or indirectly owned or controlled by
such party and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries. There are no
Affiliates, as hereinafter defined, of CG, other than the Stockholder.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Affiliate" means, with
respect to any party, an individual or entity controlled by, in
control of, or under common control with, such party. 

          Section 3.4 Authority Relative to this Agreement. CG has the
requisite corporate power and authority, and the Stockholder has the
capacity, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this
Agreement by CG and the consummation by CG of the transactions
contemplated on its part hereby have been duly authorized by CG's
Board of Directors and the Stockholder, and no other corporate
proceedings on the part of CG are necessary to authorize this
Agreement or for CG to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and
delivered by CG and the Stockholder and constitutes the valid and
binding agreement of CG and the Stockholder, enforceable against each
of them in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability
may be subject to the laws of general application relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar
laws affecting or relating to creditors generally and rules of law
governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable
remedies. 

          Section 3.5 Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws. CG has
heretofore furnished to Parent a complete and correct copy of the
articles of incorporation and by-laws, as amended to date of June 23,
1983. Such articles of incorporation and by-laws are in full force and
effect. CG is not in violation of any of the provisions of its
articles of incorporation or by-laws. 

          Section 3.6 Consents and Approvals; No Violations. Neither
the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by CG, nor
the consummation by CG of the transactions contemplated hereby, will
(i) conflict with or result in any breach of any provisions of the
articles of incorporation or by-laws of CG, (ii) require a filing
with, or a permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any federal,
state, local or foreign court, arbitration tribunal, administrative
agency or commission or other governmental or other regulatory
authority or administrative agency or commission (a "Governmental
Entity"), except for the filing and recordation of an Agreement of
Merger as required by the California Corporations Code, (iii), except
as set forth on Schedule 3.6, result in a violation or breach of, or
constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a
default (or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation or
acceleration) under, or result in the creation of a Lien on any
property or asset of CG pursuant to, any of the terms, conditions or
provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, license, contract,
agreement or other instrument or obligation (each, a "Contract") to
which CG is a party or by which CG or any of its properties or assets
may be bound which violations, breaches, defaults, rights of
termination, cancellation or acceleration or creations of liens,
individually or in the aggregate, would have a CG Material Adverse
Effect (as defined in Section 3.8) or (iv) violate any law, order,
writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation of any
Governmental Entity applicable to CG, or any of its properties or
assets. 

          Section 3.7 Financial Statements. CG has delivered to the
Parent (a) the financial statements of CG as of December 31, 1994,
1995 and 1996, and for each of the fiscal years then ended, in each
case, accompanied by the audit opinion of Deloitte & Touche LLP, CG's
independent auditors, and (b) the unaudited interim financial
statements of CG as of September 30, 1997 and for the five months then
ended (collectively, the "Financial Statements").  Except as indicated
on the interim Financial Statements and for the absence of footnotes
thereto, the Financial Statements of CG have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"),
consistently applied throughout the periods indicated. The Financial
Statements are set forth on Schedule 3.7 hereto, are true and correct,
and fairly present the consolidated financial position of CG as at the
dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows of CG for
the periods then ended. Since December 31, 1996, there has been no
change in any of the significant accounting (including tax accounting)
policies, practices or procedures of CG. With respect to each of the
audited Financial Statements, there were no audit adjustments proposed
by Deloitte & Touche LLP which were not accepted by CG and
appropriately reflected thereon. 

          Section 3.8 Absence of Certain Changes or Events; Contracts. 
Except as set forth on Schedule 3.8, since December 31, 1996, (i) CG
has not conducted its business and operations other than in the
ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices, or
taken any actions of a type prohibited by the provisions of Section
5.1 hereof, and (ii) there has not been any fact, event, circumstance
or change affecting or relating to CG which has had or is reasonably
likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse
effect on the financial condition, results of operations, business,
assets, liabilities, prospects or properties of CG, or the ability of
CG to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by
this Agreement (a "CG Material Adverse Effect"); provided, however,
that a CG Material Adverse Effect shall not include any adverse effect
following the date of this Agreement to the extent solely attributable
to (i) the announcement or pendency of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement or (ii) changes in national economic conditions or
industry conditions generally. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6
(Consents and Approvals), the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement will not constitute a change of control under or require the
consent from or the giving of notice to any party pursuant to the
terms, conditions or provisions of any Contract to which CG is a
party., which change of control or failure to obtain consent or give
notice would have a CG Material Effect. 

          Section 3.9 Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.9,
there is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or
threatened in writing against or affecting CG, any of its Affiliates
or the Stockholder.  There is no judgment, decree, injunction, ruling
or order of any Governmental Entity outstanding against CG, any of its
Affiliates or the Stockholder.  

          Section 3.10 Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities. Except for
liabilities or obligations which (i) are disclosed, accrued or
reserved against on CG's Financial Statements (including the financial
statement notes thereto), (ii) are disclosed on Schedule 3.9
(Litigation) or (iii) were incurred after September 30, 1997 in the
ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice, CG has
no liabilities or obligations (whether absolute, accrued, contingent
or otherwise and of any kind, regardless of any assessment as to the
potential of same).  

          Section 3.11 No Default. CG is not in default or violation
(and no event has occurred which with notice or the lapse of time or
both would constitute a default or violation) of any term, condition
or provision of (i) its charter or by-laws, or (ii) any order, writ,
injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation of any Governmental
Entity applicable to CG. 

          Section 3.12 Taxes. 

          (a)     CG has heretofore delivered or hereafter will make
available to Parent upon request true, correct and complete copies of
the federal, state, local and foreign income, franchise, sales and
other Tax Returns, as hereinafter defined, filed by CG for each of
CG's fiscal years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996. CG has duly
filed all federal, state, local and foreign income, franchise, sales
and other Tax Returns required to be filed by it. All such Tax Returns
are true, correct and complete, and CG has duly paid all Taxes, as
hereinafter defined, shown on such Tax Returns and has paid or made
adequate provision for payment of all accrued but unpaid Taxes
anticipated in respect of all periods since the periods covered by
such Tax Returns. All deficiencies assessed as a result of any
examination of Tax Returns of CG by federal, state, local or foreign
tax authorities have been paid or reserved on the financial statements
of CG in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. CG is not, and has
never been, a party to any written tax-sharing agreements. No issue
has been raised during the past five years by any federal, state,
local or foreign taxing authority which, if raised with regard to any
other period not so examined, could reasonably be expected to result
in a proposed deficiency for any other period not so examined. CG has
not granted any extension or waiver of the statutory period of
limitations applicable to any claim for any Taxes. (i) CG is not a
party to any agreement, contract or arrangement that would result,
separately or in the aggregate, in the payment of any "excess
parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 28OG of the Code;
(ii) no consent has been filed under Section 341(f) of the Code with
respect to CG; (iii) CG has not participated in, or cooperated with,

          (d)     With respect to each of the Plans on Schedule 3.16; 

               (i) each Plan intended to qualify under Section 401(a)

effect that the Plan is qualified under Section 401 of the Code and
any trust maintained pursuant thereto is exempt from federal income

expected to occur through the date of the Closing that caused or could
cause the loss of such qualification or exemption or the imposition of
any penalty or tax liability; 

               (ii) all payments required by any Plan, any collective
bargaining agreement or other agreement, or by law (including, without
limitation, all contributions, insurance premiums, or intercompany

Affiliate has any liability in the nature of retroactive rate
adjustment, loss sharing arrangement or other actual or contingent

payment or vesting or increase the amount of compensation or benefits
due to any employee, director, shareholder or beneficiary of CG
(whether current, former, or retired) or their beneficiaries solely by

$25,000 over the next 12 months). 

          (b)     CG is not in breach or default, nor, to the
knowledge of the Stockholder, is there any basis for any valid claim
of breach or default by CG, under any Contract in any material
respect. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6 (Consents and Approvals),
the Contracts listed on Schedule 3.32 are valid and in full force and
effect, and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement will not cause any such Contract to cease to be valid and in
full force and effect. Accurate and complete copies of all Contracts
set forth on Schedule 3.32, including all amendments thereto, have
been heretofore delivered to Parent or will be made available upon
request. 

          Section 3.33 Disclosure. No representation, warranty or

delivered pursuant hereto contains or will contain an untrue statement
of a material fact, or omits to state a material fact necessary to

reasonable time prior to the execution of this Agreement the
opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms
and conditions of this Agreement and to obtain any additional

                              ARTICLE IV 

               REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PARENT 

          Parent represents and warrants to CG as follows: 

          Section 4.1 Organization. Parent is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
State of New York and has the corporate power to carry on its business
as it is now being conducted or presently proposed to be conducted.
Parent and its subsidiaries are duly qualified as foreign corporations
to do business and are in good standing in each jurisdiction where the
character of their properties owned or held under lease or the nature
of their activities would make such qualification necessary, except
where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not
have a CHC Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section 4.6). Sub is
a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of California. Sub has not engaged in any
business (other than in connection with this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby) since the date of its incorporation. 

          Section 4.2 Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of
Parent consists of 60,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock and
200,000 shares of Preferred Stock. As of the date hereof, (i)
24,549,874 shares of Parent Common Stock and no shares of Preferred
Stock were issued and outstanding and (ii) options and warrants to
acquire 2,161,125 shares of Parent Common Stock (the "Parent Stock
Options") are outstanding. The shares of Parent Common Stock issuable
in exchange for shares of CG Common Stock at the Effective Time in
accordance with this Agreement will be, when so issued, duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The
authorized capital stock of Sub consists of 2,000 shares of Sub Common
Stock, of which 100 shares, as of the date hereof, were issued and
outstanding. All of such outstanding shares are owned by Parent, and
are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. 

          Section 4.3 Authority Relative to this Agreement. Each of
Parent and Sub has the requisite corporate power and authority to
execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by
each of Parent and Sub and the consummation by Parent and Sub of the
transactions contemplated on its part hereby have been duly authorized
by their respective Boards of Directors, and no other corporate
proceedings on the part of Parent or Sub are necessary to authorize
this Agreement or for Parent and Sub to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed
and delivered by each of Parent and Sub and constitutes a valid and
binding agreement of each of Parent and Sub, enforceable against
Parent and Sub in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be subject to the laws of general application
relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other similar laws affecting or relating to creditors generally and
rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief or
other equitable remedies. 

          Section 4.4 Consents and Approvals No Violations. Neither
the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Parent or
Sub, nor the consummation by Parent or Sub of the transactions
contemplated hereby will (i) conflict with or result in any breach of
any provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of
Parent or of Sub, (ii) require a filing with, or a permit,
authorization, consent or approval of, any Governmental Entity (except
pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement), other than the filing
and recordation of a Certificate of Merger as required by the
California Corporations Code, (iii) result in a violation or breach
of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or
both) a default or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation
or acceleration under, or result in the creation of a Lien on any
property or asset of Parent or its subsidiaries pursuant to, any of
the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage,
indenture, license, contract, agreement or other instrument or
obligation to which Parent or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by
which any of their properties or assets may be bound which would have
a CHC Material Adverse Effect or (iv) violate any law, order, writ,
injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation of any Governmental
Entity applicable to Parent, Sub or any of their properties or assets. 

          Section 4.5 Reports and Financial Statements. Parent has
timely filed all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to
the Exchange Act or the Securities Act (collectively, the "Parent SEC
Reports"), and has previously made available to CG true and complete
copies of all such Parent SEC Reports. Such Parent SEC Reports, as of
their respective dates, complied in all material respects with the
applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as
the case may be, and none of such SEC Reports contained any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. The consolidated financial statements of Parent, including
the notes thereto, included in the Parent SEC Reports (the "Parent
Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with GAAP
consistently applied and fairly present the consolidated financial
condition of Parent as at the dates thereof and consolidated results
of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended.  

          Section 4.6 Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Since
March 31, 1997, there has not been any fact, event, circumstance or
change affecting or relating to Parent and its subsidiaries which has
had or is reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate,
a material adverse effect on (A) the financial condition, results of
operations, business, assets, liabilities, prospects or properties of
Parent and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (B) the likelihood
of Parent to consummate the Merger and the other transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or a "CHC Material Adverse Effect");
provided, however, that a CHC Material Adverse Effect shall not
include any adverse effect following the date of this Agreement which
is solely attributable to (i) the announcement or pendency of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) changes in
national economic conditions or industry conditions generally. 

          Section 4.7 Disclosure. No representation, warranty or other
statement by Parent herein contains an untrue statement of a material
fact, or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the

or industry conditions) that could reasonably be expected to have a
CHC Material Adverse Effect.

                        ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS 

          Section 6.1 Access and Information. Each of CG and Parent
shall (and shall cause its officers, directors, employees, auditors
and agents to) afford to the other and to the other's officers,
employees, financial advisors, legal counsel, accountants, consultants
and other representatives reasonable access during normal business
hours throughout the period prior to the Effective Time to all of its
books and records (other than privileged documents) and its
properties, plants and personnel and, during such period, each shall
furnish promptly to the other a copy of each report, schedule and
other document filed or received by it pursuant to the requirements of

herein or the conditions to the obligations of the respective parties
to consummate the Merger. Unless otherwise required by law, each party
agrees that it (and its representatives) shall hold in confidence all
non-public information so acquired.

           Section 6.2 No Solicitation. Prior to the Effective Time,
CG agrees that neither it, any of its Affiliates, nor any of the
respective directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives
of the foregoing will, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate,
facilitate or encourage (including by way of furnishing or disclosing
non-public information) any inquiries or the making of any proposal
with respect to any merger, consolidation or other business
combination involving CG or the acquisition of all or any significant
assets or capital stock of CG taken as a whole (an "Acquisition
Transaction") or negotiate, explore or otherwise engage in discussions
with any person (other than Parent and its representatives) with
respect to any Acquisition Transaction or enter into any agreement,
arrangement or understanding with respect to any such Acquisition
Transaction or which would require it to abandon, terminate or fail to
consummate the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this
Agreement. CG agrees that as of the date hereof, it, its Affiliates,
and the respective directors, officers, employees, agents and
representatives of the foregoing, shall immediately cease and cause to
be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations
with any person (other than Parent and its representatives) conducted
heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Transaction. CG agrees to
immediately advise Parent in writing of any inquiries or proposals (or
desire to make a proposal) received by (or indicated to), any such
information requested from, or any such negotiations or discussions
sought to be initiated or continued with, any of its Affiliates, or
any of the respective directors, officers, employees, agents or
representatives of the foregoing, in each case from a person (other
than Parent and its representatives) with respect to an Acquisition
Transaction, and the terms thereof, including the identity of such
third party, and to update on an ongoing basis or upon Parent's
request, the status thereof, as well as any actions taken or other
developments pursuant to this Section 6.2. 

          Section 6.3 Reasonable Best Efforts. Subject to the terms
and conditions herein provided, each of the parties hereto agrees to
use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all
action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or
advisable under applicable laws and regulations to consummate and make
effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including,
without limitation, the obtaining of all necessary waivers, consents
and approvals and the effecting of all necessary registrations and
filings. Parent also agrees (i) to use its reasonable best efforts to
prepare and file as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, but
in no event later than January 15, 1998, the registration statement
contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement referred to in
Section 7.3(e), which Registration Statement shall also include the
shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to John Stypulkoski pursuant to
Section 2.4 of this Agreement and (ii) as soon as practicable after
the Effective Time, but in no event later than February 24, 1998, to
publicly report financial results covering the first 30 days of
combined operations of CG and Parent after the Merger in accordance
with the requirements for ending the restricting on resales of stock
acquired in the Merger imposed by the rules for pooling of interests
accounting. 

          Section 6.4 Expenses. If the Merger is consummated, the
success fee and expenses payable to Broadview Associates LLC under
that certain Letter Agreement dated November 26, 1996 between CG and
Broadview Associates LLC shall be paid by Parent, and all other costs
and expenses incurred by Parent or Stockholder in connection with this
Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) and the transactions
contemplated hereby (and thereby) shall be paid by Parent, provided,
however, that with respect to costs and expenses incurred by the
Stockholder, Parent shall pay such costs and expenses only up to a
maximum of $100,000. If this Agreement is terminated and the Merger is
not consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with
this Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) and the transactions
contemplated hereby (and thereby) shall be paid by the party incurring
such expenses. 

          Section 6.5 Public Announcements. Each party agrees that it
will not issue any press release or otherwise make any public
statement with respect to this Agreement (including the Exhibits
hereto) or the transactions contemplated hereby (or thereby) without
the prior consent of the other parties, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, however, that
such disclosure can be made without obtaining such prior consent if
(i) the disclosure is required by law and (ii) the party making such
disclosure has first used its reasonable best efforts to consult with
(but not obtain the consent of) the other parties about the form and
substance of such disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither
party shall issue any press release or otherwise make any public
statement (not including an SEC filing) with respect to this Agreement
or the transactions contemplated hereby unless and until Parent shall
have satisfactorily completed the additional due diligence
contemplated by Section 8.1 (e). 

          Section 6.6 Supplemental Disclosure. CG shall give prompt
notice to Parent, and Parent shall give prompt notice to CG, of (i)
the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of any event of which they gain
knowledge, the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of which would be likely
to cause (x) any representation or warranty contained in this
Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate or (y) any covenant, condition or
agreement contained in this Agreement not to be complied with or
satisfied and (ii) any failure of CG or Parent, as the case may be, to
comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be
complied with or satisfied by it hereunder; provided, however, that
the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.6 shall not have
any effect for the purpose of determining the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in Article VII of this Agreement or otherwise
limit or affect the remedies available hereunder to any party. 

          Section 6.7 Tax-Free Reorganization. Unless CG shall
otherwise first agree in writing, or as otherwise contemplated by this
Agreement, neither Parent nor Sub shall knowingly take any action or
fail to take any action that would jeopardize qualification of the
Merger as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the
Code. 

          Section 6.8 Year 2000 Methodology. Parent agrees that, from
and after the Effective Time, it will not use or employ in the conduct
of its business the Year 2000 methodology developed by CG (the "2000
Methodology"), which methodology is contained in a written report
delivered to Parent prior to Closing, provided, however, if, at any
time following the Effective Time Parent shall use or employ the 2000
Methodology in the conduct of its business, the Stockholder shall
thereafter be released from its obligation to indemnify Parent or any
other Parent Claimant (as such term is defined in Section 9.2 hereof)
for any Losses (as such term is defined in Section 9.2 hereof)
suffered by Parent or such other Parent Claimant as a direct result of
such use of the 2000 Methodology. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Stockholder shall not be released from its obligation to indemnify
Parent and each Parent Claimant for Losses sustained as a result of
Parent's possession, ownership or control of the 2000 Methodology.

          Section 8.1 Termination . This Agreement may be terminated
at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after
approval by the stockholders of Parent or CG: 

          (a)     by mutual consent of Parent and CG; 

          (b)     by either Parent or CG, if (i) the Merger shall not
have been consummated before December 22, 1997 (unless, in the case of
any such termination pursuant to this Section 8.1(b), the failure to

Agreement, which action or failure to act constitutes a breach of this
Agreement); or (ii) the average of the per share closing prices for
Parent Common Stock on NASDAQ for ten consecutive trading days prior
to the Effective Time shall be more than $46.00 or less than $27.00. 

          (c)     by Parent, if (i) there has been a breach of any
representations or warranties of CG or (ii) there has been a breach of

curable, is not cured within 30 days after written notice of such
breach is given by CG to Parent;                     (e)     by Parent
at any time prior to December 15,1997 if, in Parent's reasonable
judgement and sole and exclusive discretion, based on the results of

customers and key employees; and 

          (f)     by Parent at any time prior to December 19, 1997, if

                              ARTICLE IX 

                           INDEMNIFICATION 

          Section 9.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties . All
representations and warranties contained in Articles III and IV of
this Agreement shall survive the Closing until the first (1st)
anniversary of the Closing Date, and, no party may seek indemnity
under this Article IX or any other recovery or remedy for any Loss
under this Agreement at any time after such anniversary. 

          Section 9.2 Indemnification by Stockholder. From and after
the Closing, the Stockholder shall indemnify and save Parent, Sub and
their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents
and representatives and all of their successors and assigns
(collectively "Parent Claimants" and individually "Parent Claimant")
harmless from and against any and all demands, claims, actions,
liabilities, losses, costs, damages or expenses whatsoever (including
any reasonable attorneys' fees), net of any tax benefits or insurance
proceeds, (collectively, "Losses") asserted against, imposed upon or
incurred by the Parent Claimants resulting from or arising out of (a)
any breach of any representation or warranty of the Stockholder
contained herein; or (b) any breach of any covenant or obligation of
the Stockholder or CG contained herein; provided, however, that (i)
the Stockholder shall be liable only if the Merger is consummated, and
(ii) the Stockholder shall be required to indemnify Parent Claimants
only after and to the extent the aggregate amount of the Losses
exceeds $250,000 and (iii) the Stockholder shall be required to
indemnify Parent Claimants only up to a maximum aggregate amount of
$4,250,000 but such limitation on the maximum amount of
indemnification shall not apply to Losses resulting from breaches of
representations or warranties contained herein which constitute active
and fraudulent misrepresentations by Stockholder. 

          Section 9.3 Indemnification by Parent. From and after the
Closing, the Parent shall indemnify and save Stockholder ("Stockholder
Claimant") harmless from and against any and all Losses resulting from
or arising out of (a) any breach of any representation or warranty of
the Parent or Sub contained herein; or (b) any breach of any covenant
or obligation of the Parent or Sub contained herein. 

          Section 9.4 Indemnification Procedures. If any claim is
asserted or any action or proceeding is brought in respect of which
indemnity may be sought, the party seeking indemnity hereunder (the
"Indemnified Party") will promptly notify the party from whom
indemnification is being sought (the "Indemnifying Party") in writing
of such asserted claim or the institution of such action or
proceeding; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party's failure to
so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying
Party from any liability it might otherwise have on account of this
indemnity, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been
materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. The Indemnifying
Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assume full
responsibility for the defense of any Third-Party Claim which, if
successful, would result in an obligation of indemnity under this
Agreement. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the
Indemnifying Party may contest or settle any such claim on such terms
as the Indemnifying Party may choose, provided that the Indemnifying
Party will not have the right, without the Indemnified Party's prior
written consent, to settle any such claim if such settlement (i)
arises from or is part of any criminal action, suit or proceeding,
(ii) contains a stipulation to, confession of judgement with respect
to, or admission or acknowledgment of, any liability or wrongdoing on
the part of the Indemnified Party, (iii) provides for injunctive
relief, or other relief or finding other than money damages, which is
binding on the Indemnified Party, or (iv) does not contain an
unconditional release of the Indemnified Party. Such defense will be
conducted by reputable attorneys retained by the Indemnifying Party at
the Indemnifying Party's cost and expense, but the Indemnified Party
will have the right to participate in such proceedings and to be
separately represented by attorneys of its own choosing. The
Indemnified Party will be responsible for the costs of such separate
representation unless the Indemnified Party has been advised in
writing by outside legal counsel that the interests of the Indemnified
Party and the Indemnifying Party in the action conflict in such a
manner and to such an extent as to require, under applicable standards
of professional responsibility, the retention of separate counsel for
the Indemnified Party, in which case the Indemnifying Party will pay
for one (but not more than one) separate counsel chosen by the
Indemnified Party. 

          Section 9.5 Failure to Assume Defense. In the event that the
Indemnifying Party, by the 30th day after receipt of notice of any
asserted claim (or, if earlier, by the tenth day preceding the day on
which an answer or other pleading must be served in order to prevent
judgment by default in favor of the person asserting such claim),
fails to assume the defense of such claim, the Indemnified Party will
(upon further notice to the Indemnifying Party) have the right to
undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on
behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party. The
result of any such defense, compromise or settlement executed by the
Indemnified Party in good faith shall be binding upon the Indemnifying
Party with respect to its obligations of indemnity under this Article
IX. 

          Section 9.6 Cooperation. The Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party shall cooperate in determining the validity of any
Third-Party Claim for any Loss for which a claim of indemnification
may be made hereunder. Each party shall also use all reasonable
efforts to minimize all Losses. 

          Section 9.7 Escrow of Shares of Parent Common Stock. Upon
receipt of Shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Article II of
this Agreement, the Stockholder shall deliver to the Escrow Agent,
pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, a number of shares of Parent Common
Stock equal to 10% of the total number of shares of Parent Common
Stock issuable pursuant to the Merger. The shares of Parent Common
Stock together with any earnings on or accretions thereto shall be
held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow
Agreement. Except for shares of Parent Common Stock declared as
dividends or distributions on the escrowed shares in connection with a
stock split or other reorganization of Parent, all earnings on or
accretions to the shares of Parent Common Stock held by the Escrow
Agent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement shall be for the
benefit of the Stockholder. The Escrow Agreement shall provide the
Stockholder with the power to direct the sale of escrowed shares (but
not the distribution or release of the net monetary proceeds
therefrom), to invest the net proceeds from such sales in U.S.
government securities or investment grade debt securities and to
receive monthly payments of the interest from such investments. All
interest or other income to such investments shall be for the benefit
of the Stockholder. Any Parent Claimant shall be entitled to delivery
from the Escrow Agent of such number of shares of Parent Common Stock
as shall have a value equal to the amount due such Parent Claimant
pursuant to this Article IX (or an equivalent amount in cash), and the
Stockholder shall give the Escrow Agent all such notices as shall be
necessary to obtain such delivery from the Escrow Agent.  For purposes
of this Section 9.7, the value of shares of Parent Common Stock shall
be equal to the average of the per share trading prices for Parent
Common Stock on NASDAQ for the ten consecutive trading days prior to
the Parent Claimant's demand for the notice for the Stockholder
provided for in the preceding sentence. Subject to any Parent Claimant
demand hereunder that may be pending at such time, the Stockholder
shall be entitled to delivery from the Escrow Agent of one-half the
escrow fund (after giving effect to the delivery, if any, of shares of
Parent Common Stock and earnings on and accretions thereto pursuant to
the preceding sentence) upon the issuance of an audit report with
respect to the consolidated financial statements of Parent for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 1997, and the balance of such escrow
fund upon the first anniversary of the Effective Time. 

                              ARTICLE X 

                        RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS 

          Section 10.1 Non-Competition. If the Merger is consummated,
neither the Stockholder nor any of his Affiliates shall, for a period
of three (3) years after the Effective Date, directly or indirectly,
engage, anywhere in the United States, in (i) the sale or offering or
promoting for sale of any product, process, good or service which is
the same as, is functionally similar to, or competes with, any
product, process, good or service which CG has sold or offered or
promoted for sale within the three years preceding the Effective Date. 

          Section 10.2 Non-Solicitation of Employees of Parent. If the
Merger is consummated, neither the Stockholder nor any of its
Affiliates shall directly or indirectly, for himself or itself or on
behalf of any other individual or entity, hire any employee of Parent
or any of its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, any
employees of CG, or induce nor attempt to induce any such employee to
leave his or her employment with Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, at
any time within three (3) years from the Effective Date.  If the
Merger is not consummated, neither the Stockholder nor any of its
Affiliates shall directly or indirectly, for himself or itself or on
behalf of any other individual or entity, hire any employee of Parent
or any of its Subsidiaries to whom Stockholder was introduced by
Parent during the negotiation of this Agreement or subsequent to its
signing, or induce nor attempt to induce any such employee to leave
his or her employment with Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, at any
time within one (1) year from the date of written notice of
termination of this Agreement.

          Section 10.5 Non-Solicitation of Employees of CG. If the

individual or entity, hire any employee of CG or induce any such

          Section 10.6 Acknowledgments. The Stockholder acknowledges
that, in view of the nature of CG's business and the business
objectives of Parent in acquiring CG, and the consideration paid in
the Merger to the Stockholder therefor, the restrictions contained in
this Article X are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate
business interests of Parent and that any violation of such
restrictions will result in irreparable injury to Parent and the
business Parent has acquired hereunder for which damages will not be
an adequate remedy. The Stockholder therefore acknowledges that, if
any such restrictions are violated, Parent shall be entitled to
preliminary and injunctive relief as well as to an equitable
accounting of earnings, profits and other benefits arising from such
violation. Additionally, the parties acknowledge and agree that the
purchase price set forth in Article II includes $100,000 as
compensation for the covenants of Stockholder contained in this
Article X and agree to report the Merger consistent with such fact in
all public documents and government filings.

and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this
Agreement. References in this Agreement to Sections, Schedules,
Exhibits or Articles mean a Section, Schedule, Exhibit or Article of
this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.  References to this
Agreement shall be deemed to include the Exhibits and Schedules
hereto, unless the context otherwise requires. The term "person" shall
mean and include an individual, a partnership, a joint venture, a
corporation, a trust, a Governmental Entity or an unincorporated
organization. The disclosure of any event or fact on a Schedule does
not constitute an admission by the disclosing party that such event or

          Section 11.6 Entire Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement
(including the Schedules and other documents and instruments referred
to herein) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the
parties or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof
except the Non-Disclosure Agreement dated December 9, 1996 prepared by
Broadview Associates LLC and executed by Parent for the benefit of CG.
This Agreement is not intended to confer upon any person not a party
hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.  This Agreement shall not be
assigned by operation of law or otherwise; provided that Parent or Sub
may assign its rights and obligations hereunder to a direct or
indirect subsidiary of Parent, but no such assignment shall relieve
Parent or Sub, as the case may be, of its obligations hereunder. 

          Section 11.7 Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
California without giving effect to the provisions thereof relating to
conflicts of law. 

          Section 11.8 Severability. In case any one or more of the
provisions contained in this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect against a party hereto, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained
herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall only apply as to such
party in the specific jurisdiction where such judgment shall be made. 

          Section 11.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of Parent, Sub, CG and Stockholder
has caused this Agreement to be executed on its behalf by its officers
thereunto duly authorized, all as of the date first above written.
