PERINI CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 and results of operations and cash flows for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000. The results of operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2001 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2001 because the Company’s results are primarily generated from a limited number of significant active construction contracts. Therefore, such results can vary depending on the timing of progress achieved and changes in estimated profitability of projects being reported.

(2) Significant Accounting Policies
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board finalized SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations", SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", and SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations". In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board finalized SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". Statement No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, to be accounted for using the purchase method. With the adoption of Statement No. 142, effective January 1, 2002, goodwill is no longer subject to amortization over its estimated useful life. Rather, goodwill will be subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair-value-based test. Statement No. 143, effective January 1, 2003, requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred and the associated asset retirement costs be capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. Statement No. 144, effective January 1, 2002, requires that one accounting model be used for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and broadens the presentation of discontinued operations to include more disposal transactions. The adoption of Statements No. 141, No. 142 and No. 143 will not have a material effect on the Company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that Statement No. 144 will have on the Company's results of operations or financial position.

The significant accounting policies followed by the Company and its subsidiaries in preparing its consolidated financial statements are set forth in Note (1) to such financial statements included in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. The Company has made no significant change in these policies during 2001.

(3) Recapitalization
On March 29, 2000, the Company completed the sale of 9,411,765 shares of its common stock, par value $1.00 (the “Common Stock”), for an aggregate of $40 million (the “Purchase”), to an investor group led by Tutor-Saliba Corporation. Tutor-Saliba Corporation is owned and controlled by Ronald N. Tutor, who serves as Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.


PERINI CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)

(3) Recapitalization (continued)
Concurrent with the closing of the Purchase and as a condition thereto, the Company exchanged 100% of its Redeemable Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) (which had a current accreted face amount of approximately $41.2 million) for an aggregate of 7,490,417 shares of common stock at an exchange price of $5.50 per share (the “Exchange” and together with the Purchase, the “Transaction”).

A Special Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Transaction after receiving a fairness opinion from an investment banking firm. A majority of outstanding common shares, including a majority of shares held by disinterested shareholders, were voted in favor of the Transaction at a Special Meeting of Stockholders held on March 29, 2000.

In connection with the Transaction and as a condition thereto, the Company also entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with its lenders that extended the credit facility from January 2001 to January 2003 (see Note 4).

The effect of the Transaction on Stockholders’ Equity was to increase Stockholders’ Equity by approximately $76.2 million; $37.3 million from the Purchase (gross proceeds of $40.0 million less related capital expenses of $2.7 million) and $38.9 million from the Exchange (accreted value of $41.2 million less non-accreted capital expenses of $2.3 million).

(4) Long-term Debt
In conjunction with the recapitalization of the Company as described in Note 3, effective March 29, 2000, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with its lenders that extended the credit facility from January 2001 to January 2003. The New Credit Agreement provides for a $35 million term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a $21 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The New Credit Agreement requires that the Company repay the Term Loan in quarterly installments through 2002 and the Revolving Credit Facility by January 21, 2003. Commitments under the New Credit Agreement have been reduced to $33.3 million as of September 30, 2001 as a result of scheduled Term Loan payments and proceeds from sales of certain real estate. In addition, on September 6, 2000, the Company completed a refinancing of its corporate headquarters building for $7.5 million at an annual interest rate of approximately 9%. The loan is payable in equal monthly installments of $67,300 over a ten year period, with a balloon payment of $5.3 million due in 2010.

(5) Provision For Income Taxes
The (provision) credit for income taxes reflects a lower-than-normal tax rate in both 2001 and 2000 due primarily to the realization of a portion of the federal tax benefit not recognized in prior years due to certain accounting limitations. In addition, the credit for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 reflects the reversal of foreign taxes accrued in prior years that were no longer required.

(6) Per Share Data
Computations of basic and diluted earnings per common share (“EPS”) amounts are based on the weighted average number of the Company’s common shares outstanding during the periods presented. The actual basic and diluted EPS for the three and nine month periods ended

(a)      For pro forma purposes it is assumed that the Series B Preferred Stock was exchanged for shares of Common Stock as of January 1, 2000. Therefore, the deduction of $1,161 for dividends declared on the Series B Preferred Stock and the deduction of $96 for accretion applicable to the Series B Preferred Stock are not required when calculating the pro forma earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2000.

(b)      The pro forma adjustment reducing interest expense by $863 is based on the assumption that the net cash proceeds of $37.3 million ($40 million less estimated related expenses of $2.7 million) received from the New Investors was used to reduce debt under the Company's Revolving Credit Facility as of January 1, 2000 based on the average effective borrowing rate of 9.25% experienced during the first three months of 2000.

(c)      Adjusted to give effect to (i) the sale of 9,411,765 shares of Common Stock to the New Investors and (ii) the exchange of the Series B Preferred Stock (which had a current accreted face amount of $41,197) for 7,490,417 shares of Common Stock assuming the Transaction closed on January 1, 2000.

(d)      Options to purchase 574,000 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $8.10 to $16.44 per share were outstanding at September 30, 2001 but were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the options' exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Common Stock. In addition, the effect of the assumed conversion of the Company's $21.25 Preferred Stock and stock purchase warrants into Common Stock is antidilutive.

(e)      Options to purchase 3,326,500 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $4.50 to $16.44 per share were outstanding at September 30, 2000 but were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the options' exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Common Stock. In addition, the effect of the assumed conversion of the Company's $21.25 Preferred Stock and stock purchase warrants into Common Stock is antidilutive.

(7) Dividends

(a)      Common Stock - There were no cash dividends on common stock declared or paid during the periods presented in the consolidated condensed financial statements presented herein.

(b)      $21.25 Preferred Stock - As previously disclosed, in conjunction with the covenants of the Company's current and prior Credit Agreements, the Company was required to suspend the payment of quarterly dividends on its $21.25 Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") until certain financial criteria were met. Therefore, the dividends on the Preferred Stock have not been declared since 1995 (although they have been fully accrued due to the "cumulative" feature of the Preferred Stock). The aggregate amount of dividends in arrears is approximately $12,749,000 at September 30, 2001 which represents approximately $127.49 per share of Preferred Stock or approximately $12.75 per Depositary Share and is included in "Other Long-term Liabilities" in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Under the terms of the Preferred Stock, the holders of the Depositary Shares were entitled to elect two additional Directors since dividends had been deferred for more than six quarters and they did so at each of the last four Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

Although these bank restrictions were satisfied as of December 31, 2000 and may not apply in the future, the Board of Directors does not believe that it is proper or prudent to pay or commit to pay dividends on the Preferred Stock (or the Common Stock) for the foreseeable future based on the Company's other working capital requirements. See additional comments under "Financial Condition" on page 14 herein.

(c)      Series B Preferred Stock - Quarterly In-kind dividends (based on an annual rate of 10%) were paid on March 15, 2000 on the Series B Preferred Stock to the stockholders of record on March 1, 2000. The dividends were paid in the form of approximately 5,004 additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock valued at $200.00 per share for a total of $1,000,918. In addition, accrued in-kind dividends were paid on the Series B Preferred Stock for the 14-day period from March 16, 2000 through March 29, 2000, the date on which the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock exchanged 100% of their shares of Series B Preferred Stock for shares of the Company's Common Stock (see Note 3). The dividends were paid in the form of approximately 798 additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock valued at $200.00 per share for a total of $159,621.

(8) Discontinued Operations

Effective June 30, 1999, management adopted a plan to withdraw completely from the real estate development business and to wind down the operations of Perini Land and Development Company ("PL&D"), the Company's real estate development subsidiary. Therefore, both historical and current real estate results have been presented as a discontinued operation in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The Company had a reasonable expectation that the plan, when adopted, could be executed within a twelve-month period. Although more than 90% of the plan was successfully executed by December 31, 2000, the plan was not entirely completed because potential buyers who had executed purchase and sale agreements with the Company withdrew from the purchase of two properties, namely the bulk sale of all of the Massachusetts properties and the sale of the Perini Central property in Phoenix, Arizona. In addition, a program to pursue the bulk sale of the Sabino Springs property in Tucson, Arizona has been unsuccessful to date. When the initially anticipated bulk sales of certain properties did not materialize, the Company adopted a dual strategy of selling individual projects or parcels while continuing to pursue a bulk sale of the remaining properties. In the first nine months of 2001, the Company completed the sales of a property in Wareham, Massachusetts, two parcels in Raynham, Massachusetts, and the Perini Central property in Phoenix, Arizona. Remaining properties to be sold include certain parcels in Raynham, Massachusetts and the Sabino Springs property in Tucson, Arizona. These properties are actively being marketed for sale as individual parcels or as a bulk sale. In the absence of a bulk sale, and with a potential prolonged slowdown in the United States economy, the Company currently estimates that sales of these remaining properties will be concluded sometime during the next 36 to 48 months.

At September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the net current assets of discontinued real estate development operations consisted primarily of real estate properties for sale. The revenues related to discontinued real estate operations are summarized below (in thousands):

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Third Quarter of 2001 with the Third Quarter of 2000

Overall revenue from construction operations increased by $107.5 million (or 34.7%), from $310.0 million in 2000 to $417.5 million in 2001. This resulted from increased construction revenues in both building and civil construction operations. Building construction revenues increased by $96.7 million (or 42.0%), from $230.0 million in 2000 to $326.7 million in 2001 due primarily to an increase in the volume of work completed at the Mohegan Sun Casino Expansion project in the eastern United States and the start-up of three hotel/casino projects in the southwestern United States later in 2000. Civil construction revenues increased by $10.8 million (or 13.5%), from $80.0 million in 2000 to $90.8 million in 2001 due primarily to the start-up of several infrastructure projects in the metropolitan New York area later in 2000.

Overall, pretax income increased by $0.1 million (or 1.7%), from $6.0 million in 2000 to $6.1 million in 2001. The positive profit impact of the increased revenues discussed above was largely offset by a lower average gross margin from the Company's construction operations, as well as an increase in construction-related general and administrative expenses.

Income from construction operations decreased by $0.2 million (or 2.5%), from $8.1 million in 2000 to $7.9 million in 2001. Building construction operating income increased by $1.8 million, from $8.0 million in 2000 to $9.8 million in 2001, primarily due to the increase in revenues discussed above which was largely offset by a decrease in the average gross margin from 4.7% in 2000 to 4.2% in 2001 because 2000 included the favorable close out of certain projects. In addition, building construction operating income was negatively impacted by a $1.2 million (or 44.4%) increase in building construction-related general and administrative expenses primarily in connection with the pursuit of new work opportunities. Despite the increase in civil construction revenues discussed above, civil construction operating income decreased by $2.0 million, from a $0.1 million profit in 2000 to a $1.9 million loss in 2001, due primarily to a downward profit revision on a Central Artery/Tunnel project in Boston, Massachusetts.

Interest expense decreased by $0.3 million, from $0.7 million in 2000 to $0.4 million in 2001, due primarily to a reduction in the debt outstanding under the term loan portion of the Company's New Credit Agreement as described in Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, as well as lower interest rates in 2001.

The provision for income taxes reflects a lower than normal tax rate for both 2001 and 2000 due to the realization of a portion of the federal tax benefit not recognized in prior years due to certain accounting limitations.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001 with the Nine Months Ended
September 30, 2000

Overall revenue from construction operations increased by $431.1 million (or 56.7%), from $759.8 million in 2000 to $1,190.9 million in 2001. This increase resulted from an increase in building construction revenues of $388.7 million (or 70.8%), from $548.9 million in 2000 to $937.6 million in 2001, due primarily to an increase in the volume of work completed at the Mohegan Sun Casino Expansion project in the

eastern United States and the start-up of three hotel/casino projects in the southwestern United States. Civil construction revenues increased by $42.4 million (or 20.1%), from $210.9 million in 2000 to $253.3 million in 2001, due primarily to the start-up of several infrastructure projects in the metropolitan New York area.

Overall, pretax income increased by $4.4 million (or 26.7%), from $16.5 million in 2000 to $20.9 million in 2001. This increase primarily reflects the increased revenues discussed above as well as lower interest expense.

Income from construction operations increased by $3.6 million (or 15.7%), from $23.0 million in 2000 to $26.6 million in 2001. Building construction operating income increased by a net of $4.0 million, from $21.5 million in 2000 to $25.5 million in 2001, due to the increase in revenues discussed above which was partially reduced by a decrease in average gross margin from 5.5% in 2000 to 3.9% in 2001 because 2000 included the favorable close out of certain projects. In addition, building construction operating income was negatively impacted by a $2.6 million (or 29.5%) increase in building construction-related general and administrative expenses primarily in connection with the pursuit of new work opportunities. Despite the increase in civil construction revenues discussed above and a decrease in civil construction-related general and administrative expenses, operating income decreased by $0.4 million, from $1.5 million in 2000 to $1.1 million in 2001, due primarily to a downward profit revision on a Central Artery/Tunnel project in Boston, Massachusetts.

Interest expense decreased by $1.6 million, from $3.2 million in 2000 to $1.6 million in 2001, due to (1) the reduction in debt achieved at the end of the first quarter of 2000 as a result of the new equity transaction described in Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, (2) lower interest rates in 2001, and (3) continued reduction in the debt outstanding under the term loan portion of the Company's New Credit Agreement as described in Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

The $0.7 million decrease in other income (expense), from income of $0.6 million in 2000 to an expense of $0.1 million in 2001, is primarily due to a decrease in interest income on short-term investments.

The credit (provision) for income taxes reflects a lower than normal tax rate for both 2001 and 2000 due to the realization of a portion of the federal tax benefit not recognized in prior years due to certain accounting limitations. In addition, the credit for income taxes in 2000 reflects the reversal of foreign taxes accrued in prior years that were no longer required.

Financial Condition

Working capital increased $8.4 million, from $80.5 million at the end of 2000 to $88.9 million at September 30, 2001. The current ratio increased from 1.27:1.00 to 1.31:1.00 during the same period.

During the first nine months of 2001, the Company used $31.5 million in cash to fund $6.0 million used by operating activities, primarily for changes in working capital; $18.3 million for investing activities, primarily to fund construction joint ventures; and $7.2 million for financing activities, primarily to reduce debt by a net amount of $7.4 million.

Long-term debt at September 30, 2001 was $9.7 million, a decrease of $7.5 million from December 31, 2000. The long-term debt to equity ratio at September 30, 2001 was .12:1.00 compared to .28:1.00 at


MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)

December 31, 2000.

Periodically, the Company receives permanent cash distributions of profit from its construction joint ventures. In addition, the Company has access to temporary cash distributions of available operating funds from certain joint ventures in which it participates. Generally, these joint ventures distribute cash at the end of each quarter to the participants who will then return these funds at the beginning of the next quarter.

Effective March 29, 2000, the Company entered into a New Credit Agreement with its lenders. The New Credit Agreement provides for a $35 million Term Loan and a $21 million Revolving Credit Facility. The New Credit Agreement requires, among other things, that the Company repay the Term Loan quarterly through 2002 and the Revolving Credit Facility by January 21, 2003. Under the terms of the New Credit Agreement, the Company had $21 million available to borrow under the maximum commitment of $33.3 million at September 30, 2001. In addition, on September 6, 2000, the Company completed a refinancing of its corporate headquarters building for $7.5 million at an annual interest rate of approximately 9%. The loan is payable in monthly installments over a ten-year period with a balloon payment of $5.3 million due in 2010. Management believes that cash generated from operations and existing credit lines should be adequate to meet the Company's funding requirements for at least the next twelve months.

In conjunction with the covenants of the Company's current and prior Credit Agreements, the Company was required to suspend the payment of quarterly dividends on its $21.25 Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") until certain financial criteria were met. The aggregate amount of dividends in arrears is approximately $12,749,000 at September 30, 2001. As of December 31, 2000, the financial criteria in the Credit Agreement which restricted the payment of dividends were satisfied, thereby making the resumption of dividends possible if the Company believed that its working capital was sufficient to warrant the resumption of payment of the regular dividend or any of the dividends in arrears on the Preferred Stock. The Company does not currently have any plans or target date for when this action may occur. This decision is based on the following circumstances:

  • A strong working capital position provides the Company the option of performing large projects without a joint venture partner or to assume the sponsoring partner position resulting in a larger proportionate interest and a greater share of joint venture profits.

  • A significant amount of working capital is dedicated to the funding requirements of the Company's construction backlog, including collection of receivables, and the timely resolution of unapproved change orders and contract claims.

  • The Company is currently in the process of pursuing a strategy to profitably expand its construction business internally or through acquisition, either of which will likely require additional capital.

  • The Company is currently in the process of replacing its existing Credit Agreement with a new bank group which may result in future restrictions on the Company's ability to pay dividends.
Outlook
  • Construction Operations - The overall construction backlog at September 30, 2001 was $1.45 billion, a 19% decrease from the $1.79 billion record year-end backlog at December 31, 2000. With a strong

backlog in hand, the Company plans to continue its strategy of improving the profitability of its construction operations by emphasizing gross margin and bottom line improvement. The Company is also continuing the process of pursuing a strategy to profitably expand its construction business internally or through acquisition.

  • Management believes that the events of September 11, 2001, coupled with a prolonged slowdown in the United States economy, may result in a slowdown in the growth of the Company's gaming and hospitality building markets. This slowdown is more likely to impact the large destination resort areas such as Las Vegas and Atlantic City rather than the regional resorts such as Native American-owned casino gaming, both of which are strong contributors to the Company's results. Conversely, the planned economic stimulus package should also result in an increase in publicly-funded civil infrastructure repair projects, thereby providing new work opportunities for the Company's civil construction operation. At this time, management believes that the overall impact of this slowdown will be moderate with conditions improving by the second half of 2002.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There has been no material change in the Company's exposure to market risk since December 31, 2000.


Part II. - Other Information
Item 1. - Legal Proceedings


        Preferred Shareholders Class Action Lawsuit
        On May 3, 2001 the Company was served with a Complaint entitled Frederick Doppelt, Arthur I.
        Caplan and Michael Miller v. Perini Corporation, Ronald N. Tutor, Robert Band, Christopher H. Lee,
        Marshall M. Criser, Arthur J. Fox, Jr., Michael R. Klein, Richard J. Boushka, Peter Arkley,
        Robert A. Kennedy, Jane E. Newman, Douglas J. McCarron, Nancy Hawthorne, Raymond R.
        Oneglia, Albert A. Dorman and John J. McHale, Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of
        New York, Civil Action No. 602156/01.  Each plaintiff is a holder of the Company's $21.25
        Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock").  One plaintiff, Mr. Doppelt, is a
        current Director of the Company and one plaintiff, Mr. Caplan, is a former Director of the Company.
        Plaintiffs purport to bring the action individually and on behalf of the entire class of holders of the
        Preferred Stock.

        The Plaintiffs have asserted claims for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud and
        negligent misrepresentation.  The Plaintiffs principally allege that the Company and its Directors
        improperly authorized the exchange of Series B Preferred Stock for Common Stock without first
        paying all accrued dividends on the Preferred Stock.  More specifically, plaintiffs allege that the
        Company and its Directors violated the terms of the Preferred Stock when, in March 2000, the
        Company authorized the exchange of Series B Preferred Stock for Common Stock. The Plaintiffs
        further allege that the Company and its Directors issued a false and misleading prospectus in 1987
        relating to the issuance of the Preferred Stock. The Plaintiffs seek payment of accrued dividends in
        the amount of approximately $11.7 million and unspecified punitive and exemplary damages.

        On May 23, 2001, the Company and the Defendant Directors removed the action from the Supreme
        Court of New York to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

        On June 26, 2001, the Plaintiffs filed an Amended Complaint.  Through the Amended Complaint, the
        Plaintiffs limited their Class Action to an action for Breach of Contract against the Company and an
        action for Breach of Fiduciary Duty against the Defendant Directors.  The Company and the
        Defendant Directors filed their formal Response to the Complaint on August 10, 2001.

        WMATA Matter
        On July 30, 1993, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, in a preliminary opinion, upheld
        termination for default on two adjacent contracts for subway construction between Mergentime-
        Perini, under two joint ventures, and the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority ("WMATA")
        and found the Mergentime Corporation, Perini Corporation and the Insurance Company of North
        America, the surety, jointly and severally liable to WMATA for damages in the amount of $16.5
        million, consisting primarily of  excess reprocurement costs to complete the projects.  Many issues
        were left partially or completely unresolved by the opinion, including substantial joint venture claims
        against WMATA.  In July 1997, the remaining issues were ruled on by a successor judge, who
        awarded approximately $4.3 million to the joint venture, thereby reducing the net amount payable to
        approximately $12.2 million.  The joint venture appealed the decision and filed a motion for a new
        trial.



Part II. - Other Information (Continued)

        On February 16, 1999, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia vacated the April 1995
        and July 1997 Orders and remanded the case back to the successor judge with instructions for the
        successor judge to consider certain post-trial motions to the same extent an original judge would
        have, and to make findings and conclusions regarding the unresolved issues, giving appropriate
        consideration to whether or not witnesses must be recalled.   During 1999, a new successor judge
        was appointed.

        On February 28, 2001, the new successor judge informed the parties that in the absence of a new
        trial, he could not certify adequate familiarity with the record to complete the remaining proceedings;
        therefore, he ordered that the joint venture's motion for a new trial be granted, with a preliminary
        pretrial conference scheduled for April 9, 2001.  This decision means that the original July 30, 1993
        Decision and Order of the U.S. District Court no longer has any force or effect and that the interim
        judgment in favor of WMATA for $16.5 million was set aside.

        The trial concluded before the successor judge on October 25, 2001.  A decision is expected sometime
        in the first quarter of 2002.

        Tutor-Saliba-Perini v. MTA Matter
        During 1995, a joint venture, Tutor-Saliba-Perini ("TSP"), in which Perini Corporation is a 40% minority
        partner and Tutor-Saliba Corporation of Sylmar, CA is the 60% managing partner, filed a complaint in the
        Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles against the Los Angeles County
        Metropolitan Transportation Authority ("MTA") seeking to recover cost for extra work required by the MTA
        in connection with the construction of the Wilshire/Normandie Subway Station.   Mr. Ronald N. Tutor, the
        Chairman and CEO of Perini Corporation since March of 2000, is also the CEO and the sole stockholder
        of Tutor-Saliba Corporation.  In February 1999, the MTA filed a cross complaint against TSP,
        Tutor-Saliba Corporation, Perini Corporation, and their respective surety companies (together the "cross
        defendants").

        Trial of the complaint and the cross complaint began on May 14, 2001, with the selection of the jury.
        During the trial, the judge found TSP liable to the MTA, as a sanction, because of the alleged failure of
        TSP to comply with certain discovery requirements. The jury was charged with the responsibility of
        determining damages based on the judge's order.  On August 1, 2001, the jury found damages in favor of
        cross-complainant, the MTA, and against cross-defendants in the amount of $29.6 million.

        TSP has appealed the decision. The ultimate financial impact, if any, of this case is not yet determinable
        and, therefore, no impact is reflected in the Company's financial statements.

        Perini/Kiewit/Cashman Joint Venture - Central Artery/Tunnel Project Matter
        Perini/Kiewit/Cashman Joint Venture ("PKC"), a joint venture in which Perini Corporation holds a 56%
        interest and is the managing partner, is currently pursuing a series of claims for additional contract time
        and/or compensation against the Massachusetts Highway Department ("Owner") for work performed by
        PKC on a portion of the Central Artery/Tunnel project in Boston, Massachusetts.  The claims relate to
        the construction of the Northbound Mainline Central Artery Tunnel from Kneeland Street to Congress
        Street.  During construction the Owner ordered PKC to perform changes to the work and issued related
        direct cost changes with a value, excluding time delay and inefficiency costs, in excess of $100 million.  In
        addition, PKC encountered a number of unforeseen conditions during construction that greatly increased
        PKC's cost of performance.

        PKC's claims are currently being presented to a Disputes Review Board ("DRB") which consists of
        three (3)Construction Experts chosen by the parties.   To date, the DRB has ruled that PKC is entitled to
        additional compensation for its contract time delay claim in the amount of $17.4 million.  The claims yet to
        be heard by the DRB have a stated value in excess of $93 million.  The majority of those claims
        (approximately $75 million) will be decided by the DRB, as arbitrators, on a binding basis.  The remaining


Part II. - Other Information (Continued)


        claims will be decided by a separate DRB under the original contract provisions on a non-binding basis.
        The DRB is currently considering PKC's utility impact claim with additional claims to be presented in 2002.

        The Owner has brought a separate proceeding in the Massachusetts Superior Court challenging the
        authority of the DRB to issue its rulings and the substance of the DRB's decisions to date.  This challenge
        includes, but is not limited to, a challenge based upon the rulings of a prior DRB and/or the prior decisions
        of the Owner's representative on the Project.  These challenges, along with a request by PKC to confirm
        the latest decision of the DRB, are currently before the Massachusetts Superior Court.  The ultimate
        financial impact of resolving the claims and related court actions cannot be determined at this time.

        Amended and Restated Credit Agreement effective January 17, 1997 and the Second Amended
        and Restated Credit Agreement effective March 29, 2000, the Company was required to suspend the
        payment of quarterly dividends on its $21.25 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock ("Preferred
        Stock") until certain financial criteria were met, commencing with the dividend that normally would
        have been declared during December 1995 through the dividend that normally would have been
        declared during September 2001.  As of September 30, 2001, the aggregate amount of dividends in
        arrears is approximately $12,749,000, which represents approximately $127.49 per share of Preferred
        Stock or approximately $12.75 per Depositary Share.  While these dividends have not been declared or
        paid, they have been fully accrued in accordance with the "cumulative" feature of the Preferred Stock.
