                   UNION CAMP CORPORATION
                AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
         NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Note 1.  The information furnished in this report is unaudited but includes all
         adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a
         fair presentation of results for the interim periods reported.  The
         adjustments made were of a normal recurring nature, except as described
         in Note 2 recorded in the first quarter ended March 31, 1994.


Note 2.  Effective January 1, 1994, the company adopted the provisions of SFAS
         No. 112, 'Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits'.  The
         implementation of this new statement results in a change in the
         company's method of accounting for certain disability, health care and
         life insurance benefits provided to former or inactive employees after
         employment but before retirement, from the 'pay-as-you-go' to the
         accrual basis.

         The accumulated obligation as of January 1, 1994 was $6.0 million. 
         This obligation, included within 'Other Long-Term Liabilities', was
         recorded in the first quarter of 1994 on a cumulative basis as a $6.0
         million pre-tax charge against income ($3.7 million after-tax).


Note 3.  Included in 'Current Liabilities' are $435 million and $384 million of
         Commercial Paper (net of discount) at March 31, 1994 and year-end
         1993, respectively.


Note 4.  Included in 'Long-Term Debt' for March 31, 1994 is $49.9 million of
         commercial paper intended to be refinanced on a long-term basis.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS






       Net income for the first quarter of 1994 was $7.6 million or
       $.11 per share, compared to $12.5 million or $.18 per share for
       the comparable period of last year. The year over year decline
       was due in large part to a charge in this year's first quarter,
       of $.05 per share relating to the adoption of the new accounting
       standard SFAS No. 112 'Employers' Accounting for Postemployment
       Benefits'.  Lower average selling prices for the company's paper
       and packaging products was also a significant factor.

       Overall demand for the company's paper products remains strong.
       Net sales for the first quarter of 1994 were $790 million, 4%
       above the previous year's comparable quarter.  Paper products
       shipments were approximately 850,000 tons, 6% above last year's
       first quarter.

       Operating income for the paper and paperboard segment was $9.2
       million, down 53% from the first quarter of last year. Lower
       average selling prices and higher direct manufacturing costs per
       ton at the company's paper mills were the primary reasons for
       this earnings decline.  On a positive note, a $30 per ton price
       increase in domestic linerboard was implemented in March, which
       is a reflection of the improvement in the linerboard market
       during the quarter.  Average prices in the uncoated business
       papers market for the first quarter were about level with last
       year's first quarter.  However, pricing pressure intensified as
       the quarter progressed and by the end of March, prices were
       below the depressed levels of the first quarter of last year.

       First quarter 1994 operating income for the packaging segment
       was $10.4 million, $1.4 million above last year's first quarter.
       Corrugated container operations were the primary contributors to
       this earnings improvement, with shipments up 7% over last year.
       Earnings from the bag businesses, as well as overseas container
       operations remained relatively level with the prior year's first
       quarter.

       The company's non-paper businesses reported excellent results
       for the first quarter of 1994, with operating income up 23% over
       last year's first quarter. The wood products segment was a major
       contributor, with operating income of $20.6 million, compared to
       $16.7 million for the first quarter of last year. Favorable
       market conditions including record product price levels was a
       primary factor for improved earnings. The chemical segment
       continues to experience strong earnings, primarily attributable
       to both the company's tall oil based chemicals business and its
       BBA subsidiary.

       Depreciation expense for the first quarter increased less than
       5% over last year's comparable quarter. Net interest expense for
       the first quarter decreased 19% from the first quarter of 1993.
       The primary reason for this decrease is the reduction in gross
       interest expense, due to lower debt levels, in addition to a
       higher level of capitalized interest.

       The increase in the deferred tax liability is primarily
       attributable to accelerated tax depreciation offset in part by
       the adoption of SFAS No.112, 'Employer's Accounting for
       Postemployment Benefits'.

       Net working capital was $49 million at March 31, 1994, compared
       to $1 million at year-end 1993. Cash flow from operations for
       the current year's first quarter was $16 million, compared to
       $32 million for the same quarter a year ago. Changes in working
       capital items, primarily accounts payable, were the major
       contributors to this decline.

       Capital expenditures for the first quarter of 1994 totalled $57
       million, compared to $42 million for the same quarter a year
       ago. Current quarter expenditures reflect spending of $29
       million at the company's paper mills, primarily attributable to
       $7 million for the Savannah mill recovery boiler and $11 million
       for the deink facility and paper machine enhancements at the
       Franklin mill.  The ratio of long-term debt to total capital was
       35.0% at March 31, 1994. In April 1994, the company completed
       the issuance of $49.9 million of 30 year tax exempt debt at an
       interest rate of 6.55%, for the purpose of financing part of the
       deink project under construction at the Franklin mill.

       On May 12th of this year, Union Camp's flavor and fragrance
       subsidiary, Bush Boake Allen Inc. (BBA), commenced a public
       stock offering of 5.6 million shares (approximately 30% of BBA's
       outstanding shares) at an offering price of $16.00 per share.
       Union Camp will own the remainder (approximately 70%) of the
       18.75 million shares outstanding after the offering.

                   PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION




Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.

          In April 1994, the Company's facility in Savannah,
          Georgia received a Notice of Violation and Opportunity to
          Show Cause ('NOV') from the United States Environmental
          Protection Agency ('EPA') alleging violations of the
          EPA's rules governing the treatment of hazardous waste. 
          The allegations involve the applicability of these
          regulations to the removal of granular impurities from
          the pulping liquor recovery process at the Savannah
          facility.  While the EPA has not instituted any
          enforcement action and has not sought penalties in
          connection with the NOV, there can be no assurance that
          it will not ultimately do so.  The Company has arranged
          to meet with EPA to support the Company's position that
          the removal of the granular materials is not covered by
          the EPA's rules governing the handling of hazardous
          waste.

 
Item 4.   Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security-Holders

          The Company's annual meeting of its stockholders was held
          on April 26, 1994.

          At the annual meeting the Company's stockholders voted on
          two proposals:  (1)  the election of four nominees to
          serve as directors for three year terms;  and (2) the
          ratification of the appointment of Price Waterhouse as
          independent accountants for the year 1994.  The voting of
          the Company's stockholders as to these matters was as
          follows:
