         (a)     Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1994, which contains audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1994 (the "1994 Form 10-K").

         (b)     All reports filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a) or
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"),
since the 1994 Form 10-K (including the Company's most recent Quarterly Report

         All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections

post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement which indicates that
all of the shares of Common Stock offered have been sold or which deregisters
all of such shares then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date
of filing of such documents.

         Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded
for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement
contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or
supersedes such statement.  Any statement so modified or superseded shall not
be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this
Registration Statement.

ITEM 4.   DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

         Not applicable.

ITEM 5.   INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

         Not applicable.

ITEM 6.   INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

         The Company's Restated Articles of Incorporation provide, consistent
with the provisions of Section 78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law
(the "NGCL"), that the Company may indemnify any person who was or is a party
or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the
corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer,
employee or agent of any corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection
with such action, suit or proceeding.  The power to indemnify applies only if
such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in
the best interest, or not opposed to the best interest, of the corporation and
with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful.  The power to indemnify applies to actions
brought by or in the right of the corporation as well, but only to the extent
of defense and settlement expenses actually and reasonably incurred and not to
any satisfaction of a judgment or settlement of the claim itself, and with the
further limitation that in such actions no indemnification shall be made in the
event of any adjudication of negligence or misconduct in the performance of his
duties to the Company, unless the court believes that in light of all the
circumstances indemnification should apply.

         The Company's Restated Articles of Incorporation provide, consistent
with the provisions of the NGCL, that no director of the Company will be
personally liable to the Company or any of its stockholders for monetary
damages arising from the director's breach of fiduciary duty as a director.
However, this does not apply with respect to the payment of dividends in
violation of Section 78.300 of the NGCL nor does it apply with respect to any
liability for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or
a knowing violation of law.  Any repeal or modification of this provision by
the stockholders of the Company shall be prospective only and shall not
adversely affect any limitation of the personal liability of a director or
officer for acts or omissions prior to such repeal or modification.





                                    Page 3
<PAGE>   4



         To the extent any of the persons referred to in the two immediately
preceding paragraphs is successful in the defense of actions referred to
therein on the merits or otherwise, such person is entitled, pursuant to
Section 78.751 of the NGCL, to indemnification as described above.

         The Company has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its
directors.  Each such Indemnification Agreement provides for indemnification of
directors of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the NGCL.  To the
extent that the board of directors or the stockholders of the Company may in
the future wish to limit or repeal the ability of the Company to indemnify
directors, such repeal or limitation may not be effective as to directors who
are currently parties to the Indemnification Agreements, because their rights
to full protection are contractually assured by the Indemnification Agreements.
It is anticipated that similar contracts may be entered into, from time to
time, with future directors of the Company.

         Insofar as indemnification by the Company for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") may be
permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to
the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of
the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

ITEM 7.   EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

         Not applicable.

ITEM 8.   EXHIBITS.

         The Exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Index to
Exhibits on page E-1 of this Registration Statement, which Index is
incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 9.   UNDERTAKINGS.

         (a)     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                 (1)      To file, during any period in which offers or sales
         are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration
         Statement:

                         (i)      To include any prospectus required by Section
                 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

                        (ii)      To reflect in the prospectus any facts or
                 events arising after the effective date of the Registration
                 Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
                 thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
                 fundamental change in the information set forth in the
                 Registration Statement;





                                    Page 4
<PAGE>   5




                       (iii)      To include any material information with
                 respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed
                 in the Registration Statement or any material change to such
                 information in the Registration Statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8 and the information required
to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained
in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement.

                 (2)      That, for the purpose of determining any liability
         under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be
         deemed to be a new registration statement to the securities offered
         therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
         deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                 (3)      To remove from registration by means of a
         post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which
         remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

         (b)     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that for purposes
of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by
reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

         (c)     Insofar as indemnification by the registrant for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described in
Item 6, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of
the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim
for indemnification by the registrant against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the registrant in  the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.

                                     PART I

         The following documents which have been heretofore filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") by Greiner Engineering,
Inc. (the "Company") are incorporated by reference in this Registration
Statement:

         (a)     Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1994, which contains audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1994 (the "1994 Form 10-K").

         (b)     All reports filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a) or
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"),
since the 1994 Form 10-K (including the Company's most recent Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1995).

         (c)     The description of the Company's common stock, par value $.50
per share (the "Common Stock"), contained in the Company's Registration
Statement on Form 8-A, dated November 18, 1991, including any amendment or
report filed for the purpose of updating such description.

         All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections
13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement which indicates that
all of the shares of Common Stock offered have been sold or which deregisters
all of such shares then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date
of filing of such documents.

         Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded
for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement
contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or
supersedes such statement.  Any statement so modified or superseded shall not
be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this
Registration Statement.

ITEM 4.   DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

         Not applicable.

ITEM 5.   INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

         Not applicable.

ITEM 6.   INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

         The Company's Restated Articles of Incorporation provide, consistent
with the provisions of Section 78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law
(the "NGCL"), that the Company may indemnify any person who was or is a party
or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the
corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer,
employee or agent of any corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection
with such action, suit or proceeding.  The power to indemnify applies only if
such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in
the best interest, or not opposed to the best interest, of the corporation and
with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful.  The power to indemnify applies to actions
brought by or in the right of the corporation as well, but only to the extent
of defense and settlement expenses actually and reasonably incurred and not to
any satisfaction of a judgment or settlement of the claim itself, and with the
further limitation that in such actions no indemnification shall be made in the
event of any adjudication of negligence or misconduct in the performance of his
duties to the Company, unless the court believes that in light of all the
circumstances indemnification should apply.

         The Company's Restated Articles of Incorporation provide, consistent
with the provisions of the NGCL, that no director of the Company will be
personally liable to the Company or any of its stockholders for monetary
damages arising from the director's breach of fiduciary duty as a director.
However, this does not apply with respect to the payment of dividends in
violation of Section 78.300 of the NGCL nor does it apply with respect to any
liability for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or
a knowing violation of law.  Any repeal or modification of this provision by
the stockholders of the Company shall be prospective only and shall not
adversely affect any limitation of the personal liability of a director or
officer for acts or omissions prior to such repeal or modification.

                                    Page 3

         To the extent any of the persons referred to in the two immediately
preceding paragraphs is successful in the defense of actions referred to
therein on the merits or otherwise, such person is entitled, pursuant to
Section 78.751 of the NGCL, to indemnification as described above.

         The Company has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its
directors.  Each such Indemnification Agreement provides for indemnification of
directors of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the NGCL.  To the
extent that the board of directors or the stockholders of the Company may in
the future wish to limit or repeal the ability of the Company to indemnify
directors, such repeal or limitation may not be effective as to directors who
are currently parties to the Indemnification Agreements, because their rights
to full protection are contractually assured by the Indemnification Agreements.
It is anticipated that similar contracts may be entered into, from time to
time, with future directors of the Company.

         Insofar as indemnification by the Company for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") may be
permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to
the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of
the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

ITEM 7.   EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

         Not applicable.

ITEM 8.   EXHIBITS.

         The Exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Index to
Exhibits on page E-1 of this Registration Statement, which Index is
incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 9.   UNDERTAKINGS.

         (a)     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                 (1)      To file, during any period in which offers or sales
         are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration
         Statement:

                         (i)      To include any prospectus required by Section
                 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

                        (ii)      To reflect in the prospectus any facts or
                 events arising after the effective date of the Registration
                 Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
                 thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
                 fundamental change in the information set forth in the
                 Registration Statement;

                                    Page 4
5

                       (iii)      To include any material information with
                 respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed
                 in the Registration Statement or any material change to such
                 information in the Registration Statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8 and the information required
to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained
in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement.

                 (2)      That, for the purpose of determining any liability
         under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be
         deemed to be a new registration statement to the securities offered
         therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
         deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                 (3)      To remove from registration by means of a
         post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which
         remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

         (b)     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that for purposes
of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by
reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

         (c)     Insofar as indemnification by the registrant for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described in
Item 6, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of
the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim
for indemnification by the registrant against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the registrant in  the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.

thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Irving, State of Texas, on July 24,
1995.
