Item 9.  Sales of Equity Securities Pursuant to Regulation S.

     On February 6, 1997, INTEK Diversified Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("Intek"), sold a series of 7.5% Convertible Debentures Due 2000 (the
"Debentures") and Offshore Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 425,000
shares of Intek common stock (the "Warrants") to three purchasers at an
aggregate purchase price of $3,990,000 net to Intek after payment of the legal
fees of the purchasers.  All three purchasers were foreign corporations that
executed convertible debenture purchase agreements in which they represented
and warranted that the Debentures and Warrants were offered and sold in
non-U.S. transactions.  The sale of the Debentures and Warrants was exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Rule
903 of Regulation S.

     The Debentures mature on February 6, 2000 and bear interest at the rate of
7.5% per annum.  All interest accrued through the end of the calendar quarter
that immediately precedes any conversion of a Debenture is due and payable at
the earlier to occur of such time or times as such Debenture is converted or
the maturity date.  Such interest is payable in cash or Intek common stock at
the option of the holder of such Debenture.  One-third of the principal amount
of the Debentures becomes convertible into Intek common stock at any time after
May 7, 1997, an additional 33% becomes convertible at any time after August 5,
1997, and the balance of the principal amount becomes convertible at any time
after November 3, 1997.  The Debentures are convertible at the lesser of $3.825
per share or 80% of the average closing bid price per share of Intek's common
stock on the five trading days preceding the conversion date.  The principal
amount of the Debentures will be reduced by an amount equal to the conversion
price of the Debentures multiplied by the number of shares of Intek common
stock issued pursuant thereto.

     The Warrants become exercisable by the holders thereof on April 7, 1997. 
Intek has the right, which may be exercised in whole or in part on or after
April 6, 1998, to require the holders to exercise the Warrants.  The Warrants
are exercisable at $4.59 per share and are subject to customary anti-dilution
adjustments.

     The purchasers were placed by Brown Simpson, LLC ("Brown Simpson"), which
had signed a new engagement letter with Intek.  Brown Simpson received no
consideration in connection with the placement of the Debentures or Warrants.
