6 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Board of Directors and Shareholder of Clipper Cruise Line, Inc., Clipper Adventure Cruises, Inc., Republic Cruise Line, Inc. and Liberty Cruise Line, Inc. We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Clipper Cruise Line, Inc., Clipper Adventure Cruises, Inc., Republic Cruise Line, Inc. and Liberty Cruise Line, Inc. as of December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the related combined statements of income, shareholder's equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companies' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such combined financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of Clipper Cruise Line, Inc., Clipper Adventure Cruises, Inc., Republic Cruise Line, Inc. and Liberty Cruise Line, Inc. at December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the combined results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

- 5 - 11 CLIPPER CRUISE LINE, INC., CLIPPER ADVENTURE CRUISES, INC., REPUBLIC CRUISE LINE, INC. AND LIBERTY CRUISE LINE, INC. NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Clipper Cruise Line, Inc. ("CCL") and Clipper Adventure Cruises, Inc. ("CAC") are leading designers, organizers, marketers and operators of deluxe, escorted, domestic and international travel cruises. The Companies' programs are designed to appeal to higher income individuals desiring first-class travel experiences. The Companies market substantially all of their programs via direct mail through sponsoring "affinity groups", or directly to the ultimate traveler. Clipper Cruise Line, Inc. charters cruise ships exclusively through Republic Cruise Line, Inc. ("RCL") and Liberty Cruise Line, Inc. ("LCL"), affiliates of the Companies. Clipper Adventure Cruises, Inc. has, in the past, chartered a ship from Discoverer Reederei. The Companies had common ownership by Windsor, Inc. until December 31, 1996. On December 31, 1996, all of the outstanding common stock of the Companies (CCL, CAC, RCL and LCL) was sold by Windsor, Inc. to Intrav, Inc., a common ownership affiliate. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION - The accompanying combined financial statements display the accounts of CCL, CAC, RCL and LCL collectively referred to herein as the Companies. All intercompany transactions among these companies have been eliminated. All four companies mentioned (CCL, CAC, RCL and LCL) are under common management and were wholly-owned by Windsor, Inc. (see Note 1). REVENUE RECOGNITION - Program revenues are recognized as income upon completion of a tour. Deferred revenue consists of amounts received for tours which have not yet been completed. PROMOTION AND PROGRAM COSTS - The Companies expense promotion costs as incurred, except for direct-response advertising. Direct-response advertising and program costs are deferred until the revenue from the related program is recognized. Promotion expenses were $2,315,205 and $2,149,389 for 1995 and 1996, respectively. CASH EQUIVALENTS - For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Companies consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. MARKETABLE SECURITIES - The Companies' marketable securities, including restricted marketable securities, have been classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized holding gains and losses, net of taxes, reported as a separate component of shareholder's equity. INVENTORIES - Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market; cost is determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method for substantially all inventories. - 6 - 12 PROPERTY, AMORTIZATION AND DEPRECIATION - Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Amortization and depreciation is computed using accelerated and straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets. Capitalized software costs are amortized over 5 to 8 years, office furniture and equipment is depreciated over 5 to 7 years and leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the related lease. The cruise ships are depreciated over 25 years and cruise ship equipment over 5 to 7 years. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121 Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of, for 1996. SFAS No. 121 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. SFAS No. 121 also requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of be reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Adoption of this standard had no material impact to the Company's financial condition or results of operations. INCOME TAXES - The Companies account for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for deferred income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by applying enacted tax rates applicable to future years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Companies' provisions for income taxes are computed as if the Companies filed their annual tax returns on a separate company basis. The results of operations of the Companies are included in the consolidated U.S. Corporation income tax return of Windsor, Inc., and the current portion of the federal income tax provision is satisfied by the Companies via a charge or credit to the "Payable to Parent" account. USE OF MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires that management make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period may also be affected by the estimates and assumptions management is required to make. Actual results may differ from those estimates. 3. RESTRICTED CASH AND MARKETABLE SECURITIES U.S. law requires CCL and CAC to maintain financial protection for passenger advance payments for Company-operated cruises embarking in U.S. ports. The Company has established escrow arrangements to comply with the law and has voluntarily extended the escrow protection to all advance passenger payments for Clipper cruises. Under the arrangements, monies received from passengers for cruises are held in escrow accounts until the respective cruises have been completed. At December 31, 1995 and 1996, cash equivalents and marketable securities amounting to $6,812,552 and $6,668,647, respectively, were held in escrow. - 7 - 13 4.

An employee is not required to make before-tax contributions in order to receive a company nonmatching contribution. Company contributions, which are subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors, amounted to approximately $70,000 in 1995 and $75,000 in 1996, respectively. 8.

For the purposes of determining gross realized gains and losses, the cost of securities sold is based upon specific identification. 9. DEFERRED COMPENSATION Clipper Cruise Line, Inc. and one of its key employees entered into an Incentive Bonus Agreement on January 1, 1990, continuing for each full calendar year of employment through December 31, 1999. Under the agreement, the employee earns a minimum annual deferred bonus of $50,000 plus 5% of the first $1,000,000 of pre-tax earnings (as defined in the agreement) and 10% of any pre-tax earnings in excess of $1,000,000. The cumulative bonus amounts vest at 10% per year, with vested bonus amounts earning interest at 10% per year. Expenses (including interest) under this agreement are $284,728 and $339,957 for 1995 and 1996, respectively. Additionally, the agreement provided for an additional bonus upon the sale of Clipper based on a percentage of the net sales price (as defined). In connection with the sale discussed in Note 1, the employee received a bonus of approximately $1,000,000. 10. LONG-TERM DEBT At December 31, 1995, long-term debt consisted of two series of United States Government Guaranteed Ship Financing Bonds with an aggregate outstanding balance of $11,019,000, due in installments through 2012, which carried interest rates from 9.85% to 10.20%. The Company had pledged the cruise ships as collateral under the terms of the agreements. In December 1996, the Company prepaid $10,518,000 to retire the outstanding principal of both series of bonds. As required under the bond agreements, the Company paid an additional $416,000 prepayment premium for the early retirement of the bonds. Accordingly, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $537,802 ($343,802 net of taxes) consisting of the prepayment premium and the write-off of deferred financing costs related to the early extinguishment of the debt. 11. COMMON STOCK The common stock of CCL, RCL and LCL consists of 500 shares each of authorized, issued and outstanding stock at $1 par value. The common stock of CAC consists of 3,000 shares authorized, of which 500 are issued and outstanding at $1 par value. - 11 - 17 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Companies were wholly-owned by Windsor, Inc. ("Windsor") until December 31, 1996 (see Note 1). Windsor provided certain administrative services, principally for employee benefits, legal, tax and insurance matters, for which it charged a fee. Fees paid to Windsor for these services totaled $296,000 and $55,000 in 1995 and 1996, respectively. The payable to Windsor represents an interest-bearing payable resulting from the various transactions between the Companies and Windsor, Inc. During 1996, Windsor contributed $10,249,133 to capital through a reduction of the Companies' payable to Windsor. The Companies paid interest at rates of 10.25% and 7.0% for 1995 and 1996, respectively. This indebtedness was assumed by Intrav at December 31, 1996 in connection with the sale transaction discussed in Note 1. The Companies lease their principal offices from Windsor Management Corporation, as agent for Windsor Real Estate, Inc. Windsor Management Corporation and Windsor Real Estate, Inc., are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Windsor. The lease expires at December 31, 2001 and includes a renewal option for one additional five-year period. Annual rent under the lease is $170,076, plus various escalation payments. The Companies receive information processing services from Intrav, a common ownership affiliate. Payments made to Intrav totaled $176,000 and $125,262 in 1995 and 1996, respectively. * * * * * * - 12 - 18 INTRAV, INC.

- 7 - 26 INTRAV, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1995 AND 1996 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Intrav, Inc. ("INTRAV" or the "Company") is a leading designer, organizer, marketer and operator of deluxe, escorted, international travel programs. The Company's programs are designed to appeal to higher income individuals desiring first-class travel experiences. The Company markets substantially all of its programs via direct mail through sponsoring "affinity groups", or directly to the ultimate traveler. On December 31, 1996, the Company acquired all the outstanding common stock of Clipper Cruise Line ("Clipper") consisting of Clipper Cruise Line, Inc. ("CCL"), Clipper Adventure Cruises, Inc. ("CAC"), Republic Cruise Line, Inc. ("RCL") and Liberty Cruise Line, Inc. ("LCL") from Windsor, Inc. ("Windsor"), a company controlled by Barney A. Ebsworth, the Company's Chairman of the Board and majority stockholder. The Stock Purchase Agreement included an initial payment of approximately $9,900,000 and the assumption of indebtedness of $5,500,000 owed by Clipper to Windsor, with an additional $213,000 to be paid on or before March 31, 1997. Additional consideration of up to $3,000,000 may be paid to the extent the cumulative net cruise revenues ("as defined") of Clipper exceed $70,000,000 in the period January 1, 1996 through December 31, 2000. Due to the common ownership and control of Mr. Ebsworth over both INTRAV and Clipper, the acquisition has been accounted for in a manner similar to the pooling-of-interests method and, accordingly, all financial data has been restated to include the accounts and results of operations of Clipper for all periods prior to the acquisition. Clipper is a leading designer, organizer, marketer and operator of deluxe, escorted, domestic and international travel cruises. Similar to INTRAV, its programs are designed to appeal to higher income individuals desiring first-class travel experiences and are primarily marketed via direct mail through sponsoring "affinity groups", or directly to the ultimate traveler. Clipper's travelers cruise primarily on its two cruise ships from RCL and LCL and in the past, Clipper has chartered an additional ship from Discoverer Reederei. As used herein, the term "Company" refers to both Intrav, Inc. and Clipper. The consolidated financial information does not contain any material adjustments to conform the accounting policies of Clipper to that of the Company. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. - 8 - 27 Net program revenues, net income and related per share amounts of the separate entities are presented in the following table:

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of INTRAV and its wholly-owned subsidiaries CCL, CAC, RCL and LCL. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. REVENUE RECOGNITION - Program revenues are recognized as income upon completion of a tour. Deferred revenue consists of amounts received for tours which have not yet been completed. PROMOTION AND PROGRAM COSTS - The Company expenses promotion costs as incurred, except for direct-response advertising. Direct-response advertising and program costs are deferred until the revenue from the related program is recognized. Promotion expenses were $13,879,721, $13,769,877 and $17,712,181 for 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. CURRENCY HEDGES - The Company may enter into contracts to buy foreign currencies in the future to protect the U.S. dollar value of certain foreign currency transactions. Except in the infrequent instance of cancellation of non-U.S. currency cost commitments, the Company's practices relating to these contracts do not expose the Company to currency risk from exchange rate movements because the gains and losses on them offset losses and gains on the cost commitments being hedged. Gains and losses on currency forward contracts are deferred and recognized in the same period as the hedged transactions (see Note 7). CASH EQUIVALENTS - For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. MARKETABLE SECURITIES - The Company's marketable securities, including restricted amounts, have been classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized holding gains and losses, net of taxes, reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity. - 9 - 28 PROPERTY, AMORTIZATION AND DEPRECIATION - Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Amortization and depreciation is computed using accelerated and straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets. Capitalized software costs are amortized over 5 to 8 years, office furniture and equipment is depreciated over 5 to 7 years and leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the related lease. The cruise ships are depreciated over 25 years and cruise ship equipment over 5 to 7 years. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121 Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of, for 1996. SFAS No. 121 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. SFAS No. 121 also requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of be reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Adoption of this standard had no material impact to the Company's financial condition or results of operations. INCOME TAXES - Deferred income taxes reflect the tax consequences on future years of differences between tax and financial reporting amounts. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by applying enacted tax rates applicable to future years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Prior to the acquisition discussed in Note 1, Clipper's results of operations were included in the consolidated U.S. Corporate income tax return of Windsor. Clipper's provision for income taxes has been computed as if it filed an annual return on a separate company basis. The current portion of the income tax provision is satisfied via a charge or credit to the "Payable to Windsor" account. In the future, Clipper will file a consolidated return in Intrav. USE OF MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires that management make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period may also be affected by the estimates and assumptions management is required to make. Actual results may differ from those estimates. COMPUTATION OF NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE - Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Common share equivalents, in the form of stock options, are excluded from the calculations as they have no materially dilutive effect on the per share amounts. 3. RESTRICTED CASH AND MARKETABLE SECURITIES U.S. law requires Clipper to maintain financial protection for passenger advance payments for Company-operated cruises embarking in U.S. ports. The Company has established escrow arrangements to comply with the law and has voluntarily extended the escrow protection to all advance passenger payments for such cruises. Under the arrangements, monies received from passengers for cruises are held in escrow accounts until the respective cruises have been completed. At December 31, 1995 and 1996, cash equivalents and marketable securities amounting to $6,812,552 and $6,668,647, respectively, were held in escrow. - 10 - 29 4. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment at December 31, 1995 and 1996 consist of the following:

DEFERRED COMPENSATION Clipper entered into an Incentive Bonus Agreement with one of its key employees on January 1, 1990 (as amended in December 1996), continuing for each full calendar year of employment through December 31, 1999. Under the agreement, the employee earns a minimum annual deferred bonus of $50,000 plus 5% of the first $1,000,000 of annual pre-tax earnings of Clipper (as defined in the agreement) and 10% of any annual pre-tax earnings of Clipper in excess of $1,000,000. The cumulative bonus amount vests at 10% per year, with vested bonus amount earning interest at 10% per year. The - 14 - 33 Company recognized expense under this agreement of $153,559, $284,728 and $339,956 for 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. The agreement also provided for an additional bonus upon the sale of Clipper based on a percentage of the net sales price (as defined). In connection with the acquisition discussed in Note 1, the key employee received a bonus of approximately $1,000,000. 10. LONG-TERM DEBT At December 31, 1995, long-term debt consisted of two series of United States Government Guaranteed Financing Bonds with an aggregate outstanding balance of $11,019,000, due in installments through 2012, which carried interest rates from 9.85% to 10.20%. The Company had pledged the cruise ships as collateral under the terms of the agreements. In December 1996, the Company prepaid $10,518,000 to retire the outstanding principal of both series of bonds. As required under the bond agreements, the Company paid an additional $416,000 prepayment premium for the early retirement of the bonds. Accordingly, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $537,802 ($343,802 net of taxes) consisting of the prepayment premium and the write-off of deferred financing costs related to the early extinguishment of the debt. On December 31, 1996, the Company entered into a $10,000,000 revolving credit facility agreement with Boatmen's National Bank of St. Louis. The agreement includes a provision for a $1,250,000 reduction of the available amount on the first anniversary date of the agreement, and expires on December 31, 1999. The Company had outstanding borrowings of $3,000,000 at December 31, 1996. The agreement provides that the Company may select among various draw arrangements with varying maturities and interest rates. At December 31, 1996 the interest rate was 8.25%. The Company has pledged its personal property, including the cruise ships, as collateral and must comply with certain financial covenants, under the terms of the agreement. 11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company leases its principal offices from Windsor Management Corporation, as agent for Windsor Real Estate, Inc. Windsor Management Corporation and Windsor Real Estate, Inc., are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Windsor. The lease expires at December 31, 2001 and includes a renewal option for one additional five-year period. Annual rent under the lease is $664,150, plus various escalation payments. Windsor also provides certain administrative services, principally for employee benefits, legal, tax and insurance matters, for which it charges a fee. Fees paid to Windsor for these services totaled $110,000, $352,000 and $66,750 in 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. The payable to Windsor is primarily interest-bearing and results from the various transactions between the Company and Windsor. The Company paid interest at rates 7%, 10.25% and 7% for 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. 12. INCENTIVE STOCK PLAN The Company has an incentive stock plan, whereby incentive stock options, nonqualifying stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights may be granted to officers, key employees and outside directors to purchase a specified number of shares of common stock at a price not less than the - 15 - 34 fair market value at the date of grant and for a term not to exceed 10 years. The maximum number of shares available under the plan is 500,000. During 1995, the Company issued options to purchase an aggregate of 300,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.50 per share. Each such option vests over a five-year period with 20% vesting each year. During 1997 options to purchase 88,000 shares were forfeited. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the stock option plan. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards in 1995 consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and net income per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:
1995 Net income - as reported $4,146,973 ========== Net income - pro forma $3,708,973 ========== Net income per common share - as reported $ 0.80 ========== Net income earnings per common share - pro forma $ 0.71 ==========
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for stock options granted in 1995; dividend yield of 4.76%; expected volatility of 0.37501%; risk-free interest rate of 6.5%; and expected lives of 10 years. - 16 - 35 14.
