NOTE 3 - UNUSUAL CHARGES

In 1998 the Company initiated a profit improvement program.  Costs for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 totaled $3 million and  consisted of $2.3 million of
employee severance and the balance for consulting fees.

NOTE 4 - SEGMENT DISCLOSURE

Operating  information for the Company's reportable segments for the three-month
periods  ended  March  31,  2000 and 1999 can be found in the table on page 7 of
this  Report.  At  March  31,  2000,  there  were no  changes  in the  basis  of
segmentation or in the measurement of segment  operating  results.  Identifiable
assets of the  Company's  Technologies  business were $30.5 million at March 31,
2000,  compared with $45.4 million at December 31, 1999. The decrease was due to
the  recovery  of a $15.2  million  trust fund that had  previously  secured the
estimated  closure and  post-closure  costs at the  Company's  landfill  site in
Idaho. There were no significant changes in identifiable assets in the Company's
other reportable segments between December 31, 1999 and March 31, 2000.

        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company and its competitors and customers are subject to a complex, evolving
array of  federal,  state and local  environmental  laws and  regulations.  Such
requirements may not only affect the demand for treatment and disposal services,
but could also require the Company to incur significant costs for remediation or
other  corrective  action,  facility  closure and  post-closure  maintenance and
monitoring.   It  is  possible   that  the  future   imposition   of  additional
environmental  compliance  requirements  could  have a  material  effect  on the
Company's  results of  operations  or  financial  condition,  but the Company is
unable to predict any such future  requirements.  The Company  believes that the
accompanying condensed  consolidated financial statements  appropriately reflect
all presently  known  compliance  costs in accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting principles.

The  Company  is a party to  litigation  and  proceedings  arising in the normal
course  of its  present  or  former  businesses.  The  Company  has  recorded  a
contingent  liability for certain product liability claims related to two of its
former businesses.  In the opinion of management,  based on currently  available
information, the outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect
on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

The Company  provides  assurances  that it will be financially  able to meet its
obligations  related to the closure and post-closure  monitoring and maintenance
procedures of its hazardous waste landfills.  For the Company's landfill site in
Idaho,  such  assurances had previously been provided with cash deposits held in
trust.  With the approval of various  regulatory  agencies,  this trust fund was
replaced  in the  first  quarter  of 2000 by a  surety  bond  with an  insurance
company,  and the $15.2  million  balance of the trust fund was recovered by the
Company.  As part of the surety bond agreement with the insurance  company,  the
Company has committed to making collateral  payments as security for such surety
bond into a trust account.  These  payments  total $5 million,  50% of which was
paid in the second quarter of 2000; the balance will be paid one year later.

At March 31, 2000, the Company is committed to spend  approximately  $25 million
for  additions to capital  equipment.  This  commitment  may be partly funded by
leases the Company has not currently  obtained,  and portions of the  commitment
may be spent after December 31, 2000. The Company also has commitments  totaling
$5.7 million  against its  revolving  credit  facility for  outstanding  standby
letters of credit.

         Consolidated  revenue  in the  first  quarter  of 2000  increased  4.6%
compared with the same quarter of 1999. The increase reflected higher production
volume by the Company's  steel  industry  customers  that  benefited both of the
Company's  businesses.  The  Technologies  revenue  increase  was due to  higher
overall volumes of processed hazardous waste products, and a favorable change in
the mix of material  processed.  Revenue of the IMS  business for the 2000 first
quarter was  essentially  unchanged  from a year ago.  Higher  steel  production
levels resulted in additional IMS revenues that  effectively  offset the loss of
two large contracts that were not renewed at the end of 1999.

         Consolidated gross profit for the first quarter of 2000 increased 3.4%,
primarily due to the revenue increase.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses for the 2000 first quarter
decreased 24% from the same quarter of 1999. Both operating  segments  benefited
from reduced  administrative  costs resulting in part from the Company's  profit
improvement  program,  which  originated in 1998.  As part of this program,  the
Company  had  incurred  unusual  charges  during  the 1999  first  quarter of $3
million,  consisting  of $2.3  million for  employee  severance  costs,  and the
balance for consulting fees.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

         Interest expense for the 2000 first quarter  decreased 5.8%, as average
outstanding  borrowings  on the  Company's  bank credit  facility  were  reduced
significantly  from a year ago.  During the current first  quarter,  the Company
repaid the entire $6 million of borrowings that had been outstanding on its bank
credit facility at December 31, 1999.  Management expects to utilize some of its
available credit to invest in capital  equipment and other  pre-operating  costs
for a  significant  new contract  that is expected to begin full  operations  in
early 2001 (see  below).  Therefore,  the  Company may not  experience  the same
interest cost savings throughout the balance of this year.

         Due to the factors  described  above, the Company recorded a 2000 first
quarter net loss of $4.1 million, an improvement compared with the first quarter
1999 net loss of $9.1 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's  liquidity  requirements arise primarily from the funding
of capital expenditures,  working capital needs and debt service obligations. At
March 31, 2000, the Company had negative  working capital totaling $2.2 million,
a decrease of $6.2 million from  December 31, 1999.  The decrease was  primarily
due to the  recovery of cash  totaling  $15.2  million  from a trust  fund,  the
proceeds of which were used to fund, among other things,  capital  expenditures.
The trust fund had  previously  provided  financial  assurance for the estimated
closure and post-closure  costs at the  Technologies  landfill site in Idaho. In
conjunction  with the trust fund  recovery,  the Company has committed to pay $5
million  to a trust  account  as  collateral  for a  surety  bond  issued  by an
insurance  company  that  replaced the trust fund in  providing  such  financial
assurance.  Half of this amount was paid in the second  quarter of 2000, and the
balance will be paid one year later.

         Other  investing  activities  in the 2000 first  quarter  included $8.1
million  of  capital  expenditures,  compared  with $5.4  million  for the first
quarter  of  1999.  The  increase  was  due  to  the  investment  required  by a
significant new contract to provide  services at a greenfield steel mill unit of
an established customer. The Company expects 2000 capital expenditures to exceed
the 1999 level of $17.3 million, primarily because of the new contract discussed
above.  Through March 31, 2000, the Company is committed to equipment  additions
totaling  approximately  $25 million.  This  commitment  may be partly funded by
leases the Company has not currently  obtained,  and portions of this commitment
may be spent in years beyond 2000.

                                 PROMISSORY NOTE
                                 ---------------

         FOR VALUE  RECEIVED,  the  undersigned,  JOHN P.  CARROLL  (hereinafter
referred to as "Maker"),  hereby promises to pay in immediately available funds,
in  U.S.  Dollars,  to  the  order  of  INTERNATIONAL  MILL  SERVICE,   INC.,  a
Pennsylvania  corporation  with its  principal  office at 1155  Business  Center
Drive, Horsham,  Pennsylvania 19044 ("Holder"), or to its assigns, the principal
amount of U.S.  SEVENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS (U.S.  $75,000.00)  (the"Loan") on
August 1, 2000.  As this is a relocation  note as described in Internal  Revenue
Service Reg. Sec. 1.7872-5T(c)(1)(i), the Loan bears no interest.

         On  August 1 of each of the  years  1996,  1997,  1998,  1999 and 2000,
Holder will forgive  $15,000 of the Loan,  provided that on each such date:  (i)
Maker shall still be employed by Holder or one of its affiliates; and (ii) Maker
shall  pay  Holder  an  amount  equal to  $15,000  multiplied  by the sum of the
employee's rate for FICA taxes (currently 7.65%) and the federal withholding tax
rate on extraordinary payments (currently 28%) (which amount shall be applied by
Holder to increase Maker's withholding account for federal income tax purposes).

         All payments  hereunder  shall be made to Holder at Holder's  principal
office  address.  Maker  hereby  authorizes  Holder to  offset  the  payment  of
principal hereunder against any compensation  payable by Holder to Maker. In the
event Maker's  employment with Holder  terminates for any reason,  all principal
sums hereunder shall become immediately due and payable;  provided however, that
in the event Maker's  employment  with Holder is  terminated  by Holder  without
cause, all principal sums hereunder then outstanding shall be forgiven.  Nothing
herein is intended to create an  employment  agreement  or to restrict  Holder's
right to terminate the employment of Maker at any time.

         Maker hereby  certifies to Holder that Maker  reasonably  expects to be
entitled to and will itemize  deductions for each year the Loan is  outstanding.
Maker's  obligations  hereunder  shall  be  secured  by a  mortgage  on  Maker's
residence in Horsham,  Pennsylvania,  which residence is being acquired with the
proceeds of the Loan.

         Failure of Holder to execute any right hereunder shall not constitute a
waiver of Holder's right to the later exercise thereof.  Maker hereby waives any
and all  demands,  presentments  for  payment,  protest,  notice of  dishonor or
nonpayment.  Maker agrees to pay all reasonable  costs and expenses  incurred by
Holder  in  connection  with  any  default  action  taken  hereunder,  including
reasonable attorney's fees and court costs.

         Holder  may, on notice to Maker,  convey its  interest in this note and
the security  arrangements  related thereto to any entity in which Holder has an
equity  interest,  in which case reference herein to "Holder" shall be deemed to
refer to such entity.  The benefits of this  arrangement are not transferable by
Maker.

         IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  Maker has executed this Promissory Note as of the
first date set forth above.



                                                          /s/ John P. Carroll

To:      John Carroll

From:    Bradley W. Harris  /s/ Bradley W. Harris


Compensation  expense  totaling  $15,000 has been  recorded for you in 1998 as a
result of relocation loan forgiveness.  In addition we will make tax deposits on
your behalf  totaling  $4,988 (which will be reported as taxes  withheld on your
Form W-2) in  accordance  with the attached  schedule.  The tax deposits will be
recorded as additions to your  outstanding  loan balance  consistent  with prior
years.  If 1998  bonuses  are paid in early  1999,  in  addition  to routine tax
withholding  on the bonus  payment,  your bonus  payment  will be reduced by the
amount  of tax  deposits  made on your  behalf  and your  loan  balance  reduced
accordingly.  If 1998 bonuses are not paid,  the tax deposit made on your behalf
will remain in your loan  balance and will be forgiven in a year  subsequent  to
the  initial  loan term (loan  forgiveness will  continue at a rate of $15,000 a
year). If your employment with the company  terminates,  any unpaid loan balance
(including unfogiven tax deposits) will be due at that time.

Please sign a copy of this memo evidencing your  understanding and acceptance of
these terms and return a copy to me. The terms as outlined  above are consistent
with those of the prior year.

/s/ John P. Carroll
