                    ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS FOR 1994
 
     The accompanying proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of Union Camp
Corporation  (the 'Company') for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be
held on Tuesday, April 26, 1994,  and any adjournment thereof. Notice of  Annual
Meeting,  proxy statement and proxy  are being mailed to  all stockholders on or
about March  18, 1994.  Proxies  in the  accompanying  form which  are  properly
executed  will be voted and, if a choice is specified with respect to any matter
to  be  acted  upon,  the  shares   will  be  voted  in  accordance  with   such
specification.  If a choice is not specified on such proxies, the shares will be
voted in accordance with  the recommendations of the  Board of Directors as  set
forth  on the accompanying  proxy. Abstentions are  counted for quorum purposes,
but such a vote  will not affect  the determination of  whether more votes  have
been  cast in favor of a proposal than have been cast against it. A proxy may be
revoked by the person giving it at any time before its exercise.
 
     The Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on March 4, 1994  as
the record date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to notice of,
and  to vote  at, the  annual meeting.  On March  4, 1994,  69,916,299 shares of
Common Stock of the Company were outstanding. Each share is entitled to one vote
on each matter presented for a vote at the annual meeting.
 
                      PROPOSAL 1 -- ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
 
     The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that the Board of Directors
shall be divided into three classes, as  nearly equal in size as possible.  Each
year the directors of one class are elected to serve terms of three years.
 
     Four  persons have been nominated by the Board for election as directors at
the 1994 Annual  Meeting to serve  three year  terms of office  and until  their
successors  are duly  elected. The  nominees will be  elected if  they receive a
plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting
if a  quorum (a  majority of  the  votes entitled  to be  cast) is  present.  An
abstention is counted for quorum purposes, but is not a vote cast.
 
     The  nominees to Class I  to serve terms expiring  at the annual meeting of
stockholders in  1997  are  Sir  Colin Corness,  Robert  D.  Kennedy,  W.  Craig
McClelland  and  James  M. Reed.  All  of  the nominees  are  currently  Class I
directors elected by the stockholders at the 1991 Annual Meeting.
 
     Votes (other than votes withheld) will be cast pursuant to the accompanying
proxy for the  election of the  nominees listed  unless, by reason  of death  or
other unexpected occurrence, one or more of such nominees shall not be available
for  election, in which event it is intended  that such votes will be cast for a
substitute nominee or nominees  designated by the Board  of Directors or, if  no
substitute  nominee or nominees are selected by the Board of Directors, to amend
the Company's bylaws to  reduce the membership  of the Board  of Directors to  a
number  equal to the number of such nominees who are available for election, and
to elect such nominees. The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any
of the nominees listed will not be available for election as a director.
 
     The names of  the directors and  nominees, their ages,  the years in  which
their  terms of office will expire,  their principal occupations during at least
the past five  years, other  directorships held and  certain other  biographical
information are set forth on the following pages.

                       BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND COMMITTEES
 
     In 1993,  the Board  of Directors  held seven  meetings and  the  Executive
Committee  of the Board of Directors held three meetings. Non-employee directors
receive as compensation for serving on the Board, an annual fee of $17,500  plus
shares  of Company Common Stock awarded  pursuant to the Stock Compensation Plan
for  Non-Employee  Directors   (the  'Stock  Compensation   Plan').  The   Stock
Compensation  Plan  provides  that  immediately  after  each  annual  meeting of
stockholders, each director who is not an employee of the Company shall  receive
the number of whole shares of Company Common Stock provided in the Plan for that
year, or if there is no provision in the Plan for that year, whole shares having
a  fair market value, at  the time of the grant,  of approximately $5,000. In no
event may the fair market value of any annual grant of such stock exceed $40,000
for each non-employee  director. The total  number of shares  of Company  Common
Stock  that may be awarded under the  Stock Compensation Plan is 150,000. During
1993 each  non-employee director  received 135  shares of  Company Common  Stock
pursuant  to  the Stock  Compensation  Plan which  had  a fair  market  value of
approximately $6,000 at the time such stock was granted. The Plan provides  that
each non-employee director shall receive for 1994 shares of Company Common Stock
having  a fair market value of  approximately $9,000. Non-employee directors are
also paid $1,500 for each  meeting of the Board  of Directors they attend,  $750
for  each committee meeting they  attend and $1,000 per  year for serving as the
Chair of a committee.
 
     The Board  of Directors  has  appointed an  Audit Committee,  a  Personnel,
Compensation  and  Nominating Committee,  a Pension  Investment Committee  and a
Public Issues Committee, which are  composed entirely of non-employee  directors
of the Company.
 
     The  Audit Committee held three meetings  during 1993. Generally, the Audit
Committee (i) recommends to the  Board of Directors the independent  accountants
to  be appointed for  the Company, (ii) meets  with the independent accountants,
the chief  internal  auditor and  other  corporate officers  to  review  matters
relating   to  corporate  financial  reporting  and  accounting  procedures  and
policies, adequacy of financial, accounting and operating controls and the scope
of the  audits  of the  independent  accountants and  internal  auditors,  (iii)
reviews  and reports on the results of such audits to the Board of Directors and
(iv) submits to the Board of Directors its recommendations relating to financial
reporting and accounting  practices and policies  and financial, accounting  and
operating controls.
 
     The  Personnel, Compensation  and Nominating  Committee held  five meetings
during 1993.  The Personnel,  Compensation and  Nominating Committee  (i)  makes
recommendations  to the Board concerning the election of the Company's officers,
(ii) reviews the compensation  plans and sets the  compensation for officers  of
the  Company, (iii) awards incentive compensation and bonuses to officers of the
Company, (iv) administers the Company's  stock option plans and awards  options,
restricted stock, stock appreciation rights and bonuses payable in stock and (v)
recommends  to the  Board the  members and the  Chairs of  Board Committees. The
Personnel, Compensation and  Nominating Committee also  recommends to the  Board
candidates  for election as directors, and will consider nominees recommended by
stockholders. Such  recommendations  should  be  submitted  in  writing  to  the
Secretary   of  the  Company  with  a  description  of  the  proposed  nominee's
qualifications and other  relevant biographical information,  and the  nominee's
consent to serve as a director.
 
     The  Company's bylaws provide  that any stockholder  who wishes to nominate
any person  for election  as a  director at  the annual  meeting must  give  the
Company's  Secretary written notice of  such intent at least  sixty (60) days in
advance of the date established in the  bylaws as the day of the annual  meeting
(the  last  Tuesday  in  April  of each  year).  Such  notice  must  contain the
information required by the bylaws  including information regarding each  person
to  be nominated as would be required to  be included in a proxy statement filed
pursuant to the proxy  rules of the Securities  and Exchange Commission had  the
person been nominated by the Board of Directors.
 
     The Pension Investment Committee held two meetings during 1993. The Pension
Investment  Committee periodically reviews  the activities of  the management of
the Company in supervising the investment of the Company's pension funds.
 
                                       6
 
<PAGE>
     The Public  Issues Committee  held  two meetings  during 1993.  The  Public
Issues  Committee, in  its discretion (i)  inquires into and  reviews any matter
involving the conduct of the Company's  business which affects the public or  in
which  the public has  a strong interest; (ii)  recommends policies and programs
which further the  interests of the  Company to the  Board and/or the  Company's
management;  (iii) provides oversight  with respect to  the Company's compliance
activities as to environmental,  health and safety,  employment and other  legal
standards of conduct; and (iv) reports to the Board on matters believed to be of
significance to the Board.
 
     Non-employee directors may elect to defer for such period as they determine
all or part of their directors' retainer and meeting fees in which case interest
is  earned on the deferred amounts at the  rate equal to the average yield on 91
day U.S. Treasury bills for the preceding period of December 1 through  November
30  compounded  annually.  Upon  retirement from  the  Board  of  Directors, any
director who is not an employee of the Company and who has completed five  years
of  service as  a non-employee  director receives  an annual  retirement benefit
equal to the  sum of 50%  of the  director's annual retainer  on the  retirement
date,  plus 10% of such retainer multiplied by the number of the director's full
years of  service in  excess  of five  but  not in  excess  of ten  years.  Such
retirement benefit is unfunded and is paid annually out of the Company's general
assets  until  the total  number of  annual  payments equals  the number  of the
director's years  of service.  If the  director dies  before receiving  all  the
retirement  benefits he would have been entitled to receive had he lived, a lump
sum death benefit equal to the present value of such annual retirement  benefits
remaining unpaid is payable to his beneficiary.
 
     Directors  who are employees  of the Company do  not receive any additional
compensation by reason of their membership on, or attendance at meetings of, the
Board or Committees thereof.

                            REPORT OF THE PERSONNEL,
                     COMPENSATION AND NOMINATING COMMITTEE
                           ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 
THE COMMITTEE'S FUNCTION
 
     The  Personnel, Compensation and Nominating  Committee (the 'Committee') is
composed entirely of independent, non-employee directors. The Committee  reviews
and  approves each element  of the Company's  executive compensation program and
assesses the effectiveness of the program as a whole. The Committee approves the
salaries of the  Company's Chief  Executive Officer  (the 'CEO')  and its  other
executive  officers, makes awards under the  Executive Annual Incentive Plan and
the Policy Group  Long-Term Incentive Plan  and grants stock  options under  the
1989 Stock Option and Stock Award Plan.
 
OBJECTIVES OF THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM
 
     The  executive compensation program is designed to: (a) attract, retain and
motivate talented executives to  work on behalf  of shareholders, the  Company's
employees,  customers and the communities within which the Company operates; (b)
provide compensation at levels that are  competitive with those provided in  the
various  markets where Union Camp competes  for executive resources; (c) place a
significant portion  of executive  pay at  risk; and  (d) recognize  and  reward
exceptional  individual accomplishments.  The Company's CEO  participates in the
same programs and receives compensation based  on the same factors as the  other
executive officers.
 

     The  Committee considered the deductibility of executive compensation under
Section 162(m) of  the Internal Revenue  Code which was  enacted in 1993.  Under
this  provision,  beginning in  1994 a  publicly held  corporation would  not be
permitted to deduct compensation in excess of one million dollars per year  paid
to  the CEO and the other executive officers named in the proxy statement except
to the extent  the compensation was  paid under compensation  plans meeting  tax
code  requirements to be considered  performance-based. The Committee noted that
Union Camp does not  currently face the loss  of the deduction for  compensation
paid  to its CEO and other named executive officers and that regulations on this
new law  are not  yet  available. However,  the  Committee determined  that,  in
reviewing  the design of  and administering the  executive compensation program,
the Committee will

 
                                       12
 
<PAGE>

continue in the future  to preserve the Company's  tax deductions for  executive
compensation  unless  this goal  conflicts with  the  primary objectives  of the
Company's compensation program.



     The Committee also seeks an  appropriate balance among program  objectives.
Particular attention is paid to the two key objectives discussed below.

 
     PROVIDING COMPETITIVE LEVELS OF COMPENSATION
 
     The  Committee intends to provide the Company's CEO and its executives with
total compensation  that, at  targeted levels  of performance,  according to  an
independent  consultant,  is  competitive with  the  average  total compensation
earned  by   executives  who   hold  comparable   positions  or   have   similar
qualifications  in the  paper and  forest products  industry and  within general
industry for companies  of comparable  size. The Company  has historically  used
this  comparable group which differs from and is larger than the peer group used
in the Stock Performance Graph on page  15 because the Company feels the  larger
group  better  represents  the market  within  which it  competes  for executive
talent. To  determine  average competitive  levels  of base  salary  and  target
incentive  compensation, the Committee regularly  reviews information drawn from
various sources, including  proxy statements, industry  surveys and  independent
compensation  consultants.  The Committee  examines  specific salary  and target
incentive recommendations for Union Camp's  CEO and other officers,  considering
each  position's relative  content, accountability,  scope of  responsibility as
well as the individual's performance and experience. While the targeted value of
an executive's total compensation is set annually at average competitive levels,
a large portion of a senior executive's compensation is at risk and will  exceed
or  fall  below the  targeted levels  depending  on actual  performance measured
against predetermined objectives.
 
     ENSURING THAT INCENTIVE COMPENSATION VARIES WITH PERFORMANCE
 
     Union Camp's annual  incentive plan  is designed to  ensure that  incentive
compensation  is predictable with the financial and strategic performance of the
Company and/or its business units  as measured against predetermined  objectives
which are approved annually by the Committee. Awards paid under the Policy Group
Long-Term  Incentive Plan takes  into account the  Company's long-term financial
performance.
 
     Because the Company's  incentive plans serve  different purposes, they  use
different  performance measures  and periods. Accordingly,  an executive's total
compensation may not vary based on  any single measure of corporate or  business
unit performance over a particular period of time.
 
OVERVIEW OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AND 1993 COMMITTEE ACTIONS
 
     The Company's executive compensation program for its CEO and the other four
most  highly compensated  executive officers  shown in  the Summary Compensation
Table (the 'named executive officers') has four principal elements: base salary,
the Executive Annual Incentive Plan,  the Policy Group Long-Term Incentive  Plan
and  the Stock Option Plan. Following is an overview of each program element and
what actions the Committee took in 1993.
 
BASE SALARY
 
     Base salaries  are intended  to be  externally competitive  and  internally
equitable  and reflect an individual's sustained performance. Base salary levels
are adjusted periodically based on an individual's performance and the  external
market.  Base salaries are  annually targeted at average  base salary levels for
similar positions  in the  paper and  forest products  industry and  in  general
industry  for companies of  comparable size. Base  salaries may be  less than or
exceed the targeted averages if warranted by sustained performance.
 
     1993 Action:  Reflecting the  difficult  economic climate  affecting  Union
Camp's  1991, 1992  and 1993  operating results, the  CEO's and  the other named
executive officers' base salaries shown  in the Summary Compensation Table  were
not  adjusted for fiscal  years 1991, 1992  and 1993 under  the Company's annual
merit review program, despite surveys  showing executive salaries increasing  in
the  paper and forest products industry  and general industry because management
and the Committee felt
 
                                       13
 
<PAGE>
this was appropriate  in light of  the Company's performance.  As a result,  the
base salaries reported for the CEO and the named executive officers for 1993 are
below  the 1993 targeted average base salary levels for similar positions in the
above-referenced comparable group.
 
THE EXECUTIVE ANNUAL INCENTIVE PLAN
 
     The amount of the  incentive targeted for the  CEO and the named  executive
officers  under the Executive  Annual Incentive Plan  is the average competitive
annual incentive recommended by an  independent consultant based on the  average
annual  incentive compensation  paid to  comparable positions  by the comparable
group  referred  to   under  the  caption   'Providing  competitive  levels   of
compensation'.  The incentive  targeted is based  on (i) the  Company and/or key
business units achieving their annual financial  plans and (ii) the CEO and  the
named  executive  officers, as  a  group, achieving  predetermined  operating or
strategic goals that are  established as part of  the Company's annual  planning
and  budgetary process. At the beginning of  each year the Committee reviews the
operating or strategic  goals established for  the CEO and  the named  executive
officers  and the  financial performance  measures for  the Company  and its key
business units.  The  plan focuses  on  both  the attainment  of  the  financial
performance  measures  of  the  Company  and  its  key  business  units  and the
achievement by the CEO and  the named executive officers,  as a group, of  their
predetermined  operating or strategic goals. The Committee has the discretion to
pay awards in cash or up to 50% in the Company's Common Stock.
 
     Executives' awards  are tied  to the  financial performance  measures  most
appropriate  to their responsibilities.  To reinforce the  need for teamwork and
focus attention on overall corporate objectives, each participant has a  portion
of  his award tied  to the financial  performance measures for  the Company as a
whole, defined by earnings per  share. While the portion  of the award based  on
financial   performance  measures  for  Mr.  Cartledge  and  Mr.  McClelland  is
determined solely  by corporate  earnings  per share  results, the  other  named
executive  officers have  some of  their awards  based on  financial performance
measures linked to the performance of the key business units for which they  are
responsible.
 
     1993  Action:  At the  beginning of  1993  the Committee  determined target
incentives for the  CEO and the  named executive officers.  Since the  Company's
1993 earnings per share results did not meet the corporate financial performance
measures  established, the portion of the  targeted incentive based on corporate
financial performance measures was reduced by  67%. The earnings results of  the
key  business  units  varied  significantly  against  the  financial performance
measures established. The  named executive  officers responsible  for these  key
business  units had their targeted incentives adjusted accordingly. In addition,
at the  beginning  of 1993,  the  Committee  established a  number  of  specific
operating  and strategic  goals which  were weighted and  which the  CEO and the
named executive officers had  to accomplish as  a team in  order to receive  the
targeted  awards after  those target  awards were  adjusted for  actual earnings
results. The Committee  regards the  specific operating and  strategic goals  as
competitively  sensitive information. Since the CEO and named executive officers
as a team  did not  meet all  of these goals  the Committee  approved a  further
reduction  of their incentives. Therefore, the annual bonus payment shown in the
Summary Compensation Table for Mr.  Cartledge and Mr. McClelland represents  31%
of  their target  incentives for  1993. The annual  bonus payment  shown for the
other named executive officers are different, reflecting the adjustments made on
account of the earnings  results of the  key business units  for which they  are
responsible.
 
THE POLICY GROUP LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
 
     Under  the Policy Group Long-Term Incentive  Plan, long term incentives are
earned by the CEO and other members of the Company's Policy Committee (currently
seven executive officers) when the Company attains specific earnings and  return
on  capital goals that are equally weighted and are determined, respectively, by
an earnings forecasting formula and a return on capital ranking that must exceed
the median of a competitor group of 14 major paper and packaging companies.  The
competitor  group differs and  is larger than  the peer group  used in the Stock
Performance Graph which,  at selection, consisted  of the companies  in the  Dow
Jones  Paper  Group  Index because  the  Company has  historically  compared its
financial performance against  the competitor group.  Since 1990, awards  earned
 
                                       14
 
<PAGE>
under  this plan are  made in restricted shares  of Common Stock  that vest at a
rate of 20% per year over 5 years. The objective of this plan is to focus senior
management's attention on two critical factors affecting the Company's long term
performance (earnings  per share  and return  on capital)  and reward  them  for
making  successful  long term  decisions.  The value  of  these awards  may vary
considerably based on Union Camp's stock price performance.
 
     1993 Action: The Company's return on capital ranking among the group of  14
paper  and packaging  competitors equaled  the median.  Therefore, no  award was
granted to the CEO  or other Policy  Group members under  this provision of  the
Long-Term Incentive Plan. The Company's earnings per share for 1993 did not meet
the  Plan's forecasted target but exceed its  threshold resulting in the CEO and
the named  executive officers  each receiving  an award  equal to  10.5% of  the
amount  of his annual base salary  as in effect at the  end of January 1994 when
the awards were  granted. These awards  were granted in  restricted stock  which
will vest 20% a year over the next five years.
 
THE 1989 STOCK OPTION AND STOCK AWARD PLAN
 
     Stock  options are the final element  of the Company's compensation for its
CEO and executive  officers. Stock  options are normally  granted annually.  The
primary  objective of  issuing stock  options is  to encourage  the CEO  and the
officers of  the Company  to maintain  an  equity interest  in the  Company  and
provide  financial rewards  linked to  the future  performance of  the Company's
Common Stock.
 

     1993 Action:  The starting  point  for the  determination of  stock  option
awards  for each  of the  CEO and  the named  executive officers  is the average
competitive total  compensation  for  comparable positions  recommended  by  the
independent  compensation consultant (as discussed  under the caption 'Providing
competitive levels of  compensation' on  page 12). The  Committee approved  1993
stock  option grants that were determined  by offsetting the average competitive
total compensation reported by the consultant  by the CEO's and named  executive
officers' base salaries, and their Annual Incentive Plan and Long-Term Incentive
Plan  target awards.  For this  calculation, the  expected present  value of the
stock option grants was determined by the independent consultant using a version
of the Black-Scholes formula. The Committee expects to use the same  methodology
each  year and does not consider the  amount of stock options previously awarded
because it  considers stock  options  to be  primarily compensatory.  The  stock
options  granted to the CEO and the other named executives during 1993 are shown
in the Option Grants table.

 
SUMMARY
 
     The Company's  emphasis  on variable  pay  and the  compensation  programs'
direct  link to both short and long-term financial performance, as well as stock
performance, tie executive pay to critical measures of corporate performance.

RETIREMENT PLANS
 
     The Retirement Plan for Salaried Employees is a defined benefit plan and is
funded solely by Company  contributions. The calculation  of benefits under  the
Retirement  Plan is based upon average  earnings, which include salary, overtime
and vacation payments,  bonuses and incentive  compensation received during  the
highest  60 consecutive  months of the  120 months  preceding retirement ('Final
Average  Earnings').  The  amount  of  the  retirement  benefit  provided  to  a
participating  employee under the Retirement Plan  equals the product of the sum
of 1.05% of  the participating employee's  Final Average Earnings  plus .45%  of
those Final Average Earnings in excess of the average applicable Social Security
wage  base  at the  date of  retirement, multiplied  by the  number of  years of
credited service of the  employee with the Company  or one of its  participating
subsidiaries.  Benefits  under  the  Retirement  Plan  are  not  subject  to any
deduction for Social Security  benefits or other offset  amounts. To the  extent
that  retirement  benefits payable  exceed limitations  imposed by  the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the 'Code'), with respect to payments from tax
qualified trusts, such excess  amounts will not be  paid from a qualified  trust
fund  but will be  paid by the Company  on an unfunded basis  out of its general
assets.
 
     The Company has adopted a Supplemental Retirement Income Plan for Executive
Officers (the 'Plan')  under which  the Personnel,  Compensation and  Nominating
Committee  of the  Board of  Directors (the 'Committee')  may from  time to time
designate certain executive  officers as covered  participants if such  officers
are  (i) members  of the  Company's policy committee  and/or (ii)  hired at mid-
career and responsible for a significant segment of the Company's business.  The
Plan  currently covers seven  policy committee members. The  Plan provides for a
minimum pension  upon retirement  at age  65 (or  earlier with  approval of  the
Committee)  following at least 10  years of service of  40% of the participant's
average annual  earnings, which  include salary,  vacation payments  and  annual
target  bonus,  during  the highest  60  consecutive  months of  the  120 months
preceding retirement ('Average Pension Compensation') which increases by 1  1/2%
for   each   year   of   additional   service   up   to   a   maximum   of   55%
 
                                       16

of Average Pension Compensation  after 20 years of  service. Payments under  the
Plan  will be  reduced by  (i) pensions under  the Retirement  Plan for Salaried
Employees and the related Supplemental Retirement Plan, (ii) any other  pensions
which  may be  payable by other  employers and  (iii) one-half of  the amount of
primary Social Security benefits. If  an officer engages in certain  competitive
activity  after retirement,  benefits under  the Plan  will terminate.  The Plan
provides that Mr. McClelland shall receive a minimum annual pension equal to the
higher of the  Plan's benefit or  the sum  of $22,400 plus  any pension  payable
under  the Retirement Plan  for Salaried Employees  and the related Supplemental
Retirement Plan.
 
     The following table shows the approximate annual pensions payable under all
the plans described to the executive officers named in the Summary  Compensation
Table  assuming retirement  at age  65, whose  Average Pension  Compensation and
years of service at  retirement would be in  the classifications indicated.  The
amounts  shown have not been reduced by  any pension payable by another employer
or Social Security benefits which are offsets to the pensions payable under  the
Supplemental Retirement Income Plan for Executive Officers.

     The  calculation of the amounts shown  assumes that the employee remains in
the service of the  Company or one of  its participating subsidiaries until  age
65,  that the retirement program  is continued in its  present form and that the
individual receives the benefits  in the form  of a single  life annuity. As  of
December 31, 1993, Messrs. Ballengee, Cartledge, McClelland, Reed and Trice were
credited  with 12, 28,  5, 24 and  30 years of  service, respectively, under the
Retirement Plan, including  credit for prior  service with a  subsidiary of  the
Company  in the case of Mr. Reed. Upon  his retirement on September 1, 1993, Mr.
Munford was credited with  42 years of service  under the retirement plans.  The
payment  in 1993 to Mr. Munford for working beyond his normal retirement date at
the Company's request  was not  included in  Final Average  Earnings or  Average
Pension Compensation. The current compensation covered by the Plan is $1,012,000
for  Mr. Cartledge;  $458,000 for  Mr. Ballengee;  $655,000 for  Mr. McClelland;
$457,000 for Mr. Reed; and $410,000 for Mr. Trice.
 
SEVERANCE ARRANGEMENTS
 

     The individuals  named in  the  Summary Compensation  Table and  two  other
executive  officers  have  executed  individual  severance  agreements  with the
Company. Each agreement provides that if, during the two-year period following a
'change in  control of  the  Company,' the  Company terminates  the  executive's
employment  without  'cause'  (other  than for  'disability')  or  the executive
terminates his employment for  'good reason' (as such  terms are defined in  the
severance  agreements),  the  executive  will  receive  from  the  Company  as a
severance benefit  a  lump sum  payment  equal to  two  times the  sum  of  such
executive's  annual  salary  and  two  times  the  amount  of  his  normal bonus
opportunity (as such term is defined in the severance agreements). An  executive
officer  would also be entitled to continue to receive certain welfare insurance
benefits for two years. The Company will also make an additional payment to  the
executive to ensure that the components of the severance benefit described above
that  are multiples of salary and bonus will not be subject to net reduction due
to the imposition of excise taxes under section 4999 of the Code. The individual
severance agreements provide  for the  distribution to the  executives of  their
benefits  under the Company's Supplemental  Retirement Plan promptly following a
'change in control  of the  Company.' If a  lump sum  severance benefit  becomes
payable,  each executive officer party to such an individual severance agreement
shall receive an additional

 
                                       17
 
<PAGE>
pension equal to the difference between  (1) the pension he would have  received
under  the  Company's  Retirement  Plan for  Salaried  Employees  (including any
retirement benefits in  excess of  limitations imposed by  the Code  paid on  an
unfunded  basis from the Company's general assets)  if he were credited with two
additional years of service under the Retirement Plan at an annual  compensation
in  each  such year  equal  to his  annual salary  and  his normal  annual bonus
opportunity (as such terms are defined in the severance agreement), and (2)  the
pension actually payable to him under the Retirement Plan.
 
      PROPOSAL 2 -- RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
     Price  Waterhouse has been recommended by the Audit Committee and appointed
by the Board of Directors, subject to ratification by the stockholders, to  make
an  examination  of  the  consolidated  balance sheet  of  the  Company  and its
consolidated subsidiaries as of December  31, 1994 and the related  consolidated
statements  of  income and  cash flows  for the  year 1994,  and for  such other
purposes incidental thereto as  may be required. Price  Waterhouse has been  the
Company's independent accountants since 1977.
 
     The  Company  expects that  a representative  of  Price Waterhouse  will be
present at the meeting and will be available to respond to appropriate questions
from  stockholders.  The  representative  of  Price  Waterhouse  will  have   an
opportunity to make a statement at the meeting if he so desires.
 

                            SECTION 16(a) REPORTING

     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's
directors  and executive  officers to file  reports of ownership  and changes in
ownership on Forms 3, 4 and 5  with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  All
Section  16(a)  filing requirements  applicable to  the Company's  directors and
executive officers with respect to transactions during fiscal 1993 were complied
with except that one purchase transaction by Gary E. MacDougal, a director,  was
reported on a Form 4 which was filed four days late.
 
                                 OTHER MATTERS
 
     The  Board of Directors has at this time  no knowledge of any matters to be
brought before the  meeting other than  those referred to  above. The  Company's
bylaws  provide that  stockholders who  wish to  propose the  transaction of any
business at the annual meeting must give the Company's Secretary written  notice
of  such intent containing the information required by the bylaws at least sixty
(60) days in advance  of the day established  by the bylaws as  the date of  the
annual  meeting  (the last  Tuesday  in April).  However,  if any  other matters
properly come before the meeting,  it is the intention  of the persons named  in
the  accompanying form  of proxy  to vote  said proxy  in accordance  with their
judgment on such matters.
 
                             STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS
 
     Any proposal of a stockholder for  presentation at the 1995 Annual  Meeting
of  the Stockholders of  the Company must  be received by  the Company not later
than November 18, 1994 for inclusion  in the Company's 1995 Proxy Statement  and
Proxy.
 
                                    EXPENSES
 
     All  expenses in connection  with solicitation of proxies  will be borne by
the Company. In addition  to the solicitation  of proxies by  use of the  mails,
certain directors, officers and regular employees of the Company may solicit the
return   of   proxies  in   person  and   by  telephone   and  other   means  of
telecommunication. The Company  has retained  D.F. King  & Co.,  Inc., 77  Water
Street, New York, N.Y. 10005, to assist in the solicitation of proxies for which
the  Company will  pay a  fee of  $10,500 and  will reimburse  brokers and other
nominees for  their expenses  in forwarding  soliciting material  to  beneficial
owners of the stock held of record by such persons.
 
                                          By Order of the Board of Directors
