                     OGLEBAY NORTON COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
         have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q
         and, therefore, do not include all information and notes to the
         condensed consolidated financial statements necessary for a fair
         presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash
         flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
         Management of the Company, however, believes that all adjustments
         considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
         operations for such periods have been made. Additionally, certain
         amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform with the
         1999 condensed consolidated financial statement presentation. For
         further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
         notes thereto included in the Company's 1998 Annual Report on Form
         10-K.

2.       Operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
         expected for the year, due to the seasonal nature of certain aspects of
         the Company's business. The preparation of financial statements in
         conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
         management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts
         reported in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
         Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

3.       In the third quarter of 1999, the Company sold in separate transactions
         the stock of its (i) Global Stone Detroit Lime Company and (ii) Global
         Stone Ingersoll Ltd. subsidiaries to affiliates of Carfin S. A., a
         Belgian Corporation and member of the Carmeuse Group. The sale of
         Global Stone Detroit Lime Company was completed in August, 1999 with
         net proceeds of $15,250,000. The sale of Global Stone Ingersoll Ltd.,
         was completed in September, 1999 with net proceeds of $45,700,000.
         Global Stone Ingersoll Ltd. was a non-guarantor subsidiary of the
         Company's Senior Subordinated Notes. Global Stone Detroit Lime Company
         and Global Stone Ingersoll Ltd. combined for last twelve months sales
         of $29,300,000, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation,
         depletion, and amortization of $5,050,000 and income from operations of
         $2,700,000. The net proceeds of $60,950,000 were used to reduce the
         Company's Senior Credit Facility. On an annualized basis this reduction
         in debt will result in $4,750,000 interest expense savings.

         In the third quarter of 1999, the Company sold its Detroit Dock
         operated by Global Stone Port Inland for $1,985,000 in cash. The sale
         resulted in a pretax gain of $1,642,000.

         In the first quarter of 1999, the Company's Lime and Limestone segment
         acquired the assets of the W.S. Frey Company ("Global Stone
         Winchester") for $12,088,000 in cash and 50,000 restricted shares of
         the Company's common stock, issued from treasury, having a guaranteed
         value of $1,500,000. Consideration for the acquisition also included
         aggregate consulting, non-competition and royalty payments of
         $3,500,000 of which $510,000 was paid at the date of acquisition with
         the balance being deferred. The addition of the Global Stone Winchester
         operation is not expected to have a material impact on the results of
         operations of the Company.

                     OGLEBAY NORTON COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)


         During 1998 the Company completed the following acquisitions ("1998
         Acquisitions"):

         -        Purchased all of the outstanding shares of Colorado Silica
                  Sands, Inc. ("Colorado Silica") for a total purchase price of
                  $7,194,000 during the first quarter of 1998.

         -        Purchased all of the outstanding common shares of Global Stone
                  Corporation ("Global Stone") for a total purchase price of
                  $227,600,000, including $54,000,000 of net debt during the
                  second quarter of 1998.

         -        Purchased substantially all the assets of a limestone
                  operation in Port Inland, Michigan ("Port Inland"), for a
                  total purchase price of $35,200,000 during the second quarter
                  of 1998.

         -        Purchased substantially all the assets of Filler Products,
                  Inc. ("Filler Products"), for a total purchase price of
                  $24,200,000 during the third quarter of 1998.

         The acquisitions of Global Stone, Port Inland and Filler Products
         created the Company's Lime and Limestone segment. The assets and
         results of operations of Colorado Silica are included within the
         Company's Industrial Sands segment.

         The following unaudited pro forma information presents a summary of
         consolidated results of operations for the Company and the above
         acquisitions for the three-month and nine-month periods ending
         September 30, 1999 and 1998 as if the acquisitions had occurred on
         January 1, 1998. The pro forma adjustments give effect to the
         acquisitions under the purchase method of accounting and (i) the
         amortization of goodwill, (ii) the amortization of the write-up of
         mineral reserves and property and equipment to fair market value, (iii)
         the interest expense on debt incurred to fund the acquisitions and (iv)
         the related income tax effects. This unaudited pro forma information
         (i) assumes that the Company incurred all acquisition related debt as
         of January 1, 1998, (ii) includes operating results for periods of time
         prior to the Company's ownership and (iii) does not take into
         consideration any subsequent expense reductions or disposition of
         assets. Additionally, the unaudited pro forma information does not
         reflect any other events that may occur in the future.

                  interest, (iii) depreciation, depletion and amortization.
                  EBITDA is not a measure of performance under generally
                  accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). EBITDA should not be
                  considered as a substitute for net income or other financial
                  information prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure
                  of profitability or liquidity. The Company's definition of
                  EBITDA may not be comparable to that of other companies.)

         The unaudited pro forma financial information for the third quarter and
         first nine months of 1999 and 1998 include actual operating results for
         the Company's business segments. Operating results for the segments are
         detailed in the operating segment information included in Note 4 to the
         Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Lime and Limestone's 1998
         nine months ended September 30, 1998 were unfavorably affected by
         higher general and administrative expenses, including $2,360,000 of
         takeover defense costs. In 1999 there are no defense costs and general
         and administrative expenses have been reduced by office shutdowns and
         cost containments.

         On May 15, 1998, the Company sold the assets of its Engineered
         Materials metallurgical treatment operations for $14,573,000, which
         included a cash payment of $3,650,000 and notes receivable of
         $10,923,000. Through September 30, 1999 $5,092,000 has been collected
         on this note receivable, leaving $5,831,000 included within other
         assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Engineered
         Materials segment was classified as a discontinued operation at
         December 31, 1997.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

         Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations may contain statements concerning certain trends and other
forward-looking information, within the meaning of the federal securities laws.
Such forward-looking statements are subject to uncertainties and factors
relating to the Company's operations and business environment, all of which are
difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of the Company.
The Company believes that the following factors, among others, could affect its
future performance and cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the
Company: (1) unfavorable weather conditions; (2) fluctuations in oil prices; (3)
a decline in steel production; (4) changes in the demand for the Company's
products or services due to changes in technology; (5) Great Lakes and
Mid-Atlantic construction activity; (6) a slowdown in the California economy and
in population growth rates in the Southwestern United States; (7) labor unrest;
(8) the loss or bankruptcy of major customers; (9) year 2000 software conversion
failures of vendors, suppliers and customers; and (10) changes in environmental
laws.

         Due to the seasonal nature of certain aspects of the Company's
business, the operating results and cash flows for the first nine months of the
year are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.



                               FINANCIAL CONDITION
                               -------------------

         In the third quarter of 1999, the Company's Lime and Limestone segment
completed in separate transactions the sale of stock of the Global Stone
Ingersoll Ltd. ("Global Stone Ingersoll") for $45,700,000 and the sale of stock
of the Global Stone Detroit Lime Company ("Global Stone Detroit Lime") for
$15,250,000. In the first nine months of 1998 the Company had proceeds of
$9,708,000 from the disposition of assets, of which $9,047,000 related to the
sale of the discontinued Engineered Materials business.

         In the first quarter of 1999, the Company's Lime and Limestone segment
acquired the assets of the W.S. Frey Company ("Global Stone Winchester") for
$12,088,000 in cash and 50,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock,
issued from treasury, having a guaranteed value of $1,500,000 at the date of
acquisition. Consideration for the acquisition also included aggregate
consulting, non-competition and royalty payments of $3,500,000 of which $510,000
was paid at the date of acquisition and the balance is deferred. In the first
nine months of 1998, the Company purchased all of the outstanding common shares
of Global Stone Corporation ("Global Stone") for a total purchase price of
$227,600,000, including $54,000,000 of net debt. The Company purchased all the
assets of a limestone operation in Port Inland, Michigan ("Port Inland"), for a
total purchase price of $35,200,000. The Company purchased all the assets of a
Filler Products Inc ("Filler Products"), for a total purchase price of
$24,200,000. The Company purchased all the outstanding shares of Colorado Silica
Sand, Inc. ("Colorado Silica") for $7,194,000, of which $4,523,000 was paid in
cash with the remainder becoming a note payable.

                         FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED)
                         -------------------------------


         The Company's operating activities provided cash of $5,207,000 in the
first nine months of 1999 compared with $11,971,000 used in the same period in
1998. The decrease in operating cash provided resulted primarily from an
increase in interest paid in the first nine months of 1999 compared to the same
period in 1998. The Company made interest payments of $23,053,000 and $8,385,000
in the first nine months of 1999 and 1998, respectively. Cash provided by the
collection of Marine Services' accounts receivable declined $7,590,000 in the
first nine months of 1999. The decline was principally the result of reduced
Marine Services operating revenues in the first nine months of 1999 compared
with 1998 and the timing of year-end receivable collections. These reductions in
operating cash flow were substantially offset by the increased cash provided
from operations in the normal course of business. The operating results of the
Company's business segments are discussed in more detail under "RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS".

         Capital expenditures totaled $19,415,000 in the first nine months of
1999 compared with $13,115,000 for the same period in 1998. Expenditures in the
first nine months of 1999 and 1998 included Marine Services vessel inspection
costs of $577,000 and $2,279,000, respectively. The acquisitions of businesses
in Lime and Limestone lead to increased capital expenditures in 1999 for that
business segment. Lime and Limestone capital expenditures totaled $12,840,000 in
the first nine months of 1999 compared with $5,430,000 in 1998. Capital
expenditures for 1999 are now expected to approximate $25,700,000.

         In the first nine months of 1999 the Company's debt repayments exceeded
additional borrowings by $33,250,000. The Company used the proceeds from the
sale of Global Stone Ingersoll ($45,700,000) and Global Stone Detroit Lime,
($15,250,000) to reduce borrowings on the Company's Senior Credit Facility.
These proceeds were offset by additional debt used to fund the Global Stone
Winchester acquisition as well as working capital requirements. In the first
quarter of 1999 the Company's Senior Credit Facility was increased from
$215,000,000 to $232,000,000, in part, to fund the Global Stone Winchester
acquisition. The interest rate on the Senior Credit Facility, which approximated
8.0% at September 30, 1999, is based on LIBOR interest rates, plus an applicable
margin. The Company borrowed $292,000,000 ($192,000,000 on the Senior Credit
Facility and $100,000,000 under a Senior Subordinated Facility) in the first
nine months of 1998 to finance the Global Stone, Port Inland and Filler Products
acquisitions, and to pay off a $19,250,000 Term Loan and Senior Secured Series A
Debentures that were acquired with the Global Stone acquisition.

         The Company's notes under an interim Senior Subordinated Facility were
exchanged with the lender on February 1, 1999 for Senior Subordinated Notes. The
Senior Subordinated Notes, privately placed with several purchasers, mature in
February 2009 and have a fixed interest rate of 10%. The Company paid $1,172,000
of financing costs in the first nine months of 1999 related to the exchange and
private placement of these notes and an amendment to the Senior Credit Facility.
For the initial placement of the Senior Subordinated Notes and Senior Credit
Facility, the Company paid $9,042,000 of financing costs during the first nine
months of 1998.

                         FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED)
                         -------------------------------

         The Company declared a dividend of $0.60 per share in both the first
nine months of 1999 and 1998. Dividends paid were $2,896,000 in the first
three-quarters of 1999 compared with $2,859,000 for the same nine months in
1998. The Company purchased, and placed in treasury, 13,723 shares of its common
stock for $319,000 in the first nine months of 1999 compared with 14,666 shares
of its common stock for $561,000 in the first nine months of 1998.

         Anticipated cash flows from operations and current financial resources
are expected to meet the Company's needs during the remainder of 1999. All
financing alternatives are under constant review to determine their ability to
provide sufficient funding at the lowest possible cost.

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                              ---------------------

                NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO
                      NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998

         The Company's net sales and operating revenues of $217,122,000 in the
first nine months of 1999 increased 32% compared to net sales and operating
revenues of $163,879,000 for the same period in 1998. Income from operations for
the first nine months of 1999 increased 24% to $34,633,000 compared with
$27,821,000 for the same period in 1998. The Company reported net income of
$9,292,000 ($1.92 per share - assuming dilution) for the first nine months of
1999, compared with net income of $10,908,000 ($2.28 per share - assuming
dilution) for the same period in 1998. The increases in net sales and operating
revenues and income from operations can be primarily attributed to the timing of
acquisitions. The decrease in net income is the result of interest expense on
borrowings to fund the acquisitions. Interest expense increased to $23,125,000
in the first nine months of 1999, compared with $11,889,000 for the same period
in the prior year.

         Operating results of the Company's business segments for the first nine
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 are discussed below.

Net Sales and Operating Revenues
- --------------------------------

         Lime and Limestone: Net sales for the Company's Lime and Limestone
segment totaled $116,507,000 for the first nine months of 1999 compared with
$59,716,000 in the first nine months of 1998, a 95% increase. The increase in
sales is the result of the Global Stone, Port Inland, Filler Products, and
Global Stone Winchester acquisitions ("Lime and Limestone Acquisitions"). The
largest portion of the Lime and Limestone segment, Global Stone, was acquired in
late May, 1998. Port Inland was also acquired in the second quarter of 1998.
Filler Products was acquired in the third quarter of 1998 and Winchester was
acquired in the first quarter of 1999.

         Marine Services: Operating revenues for the Company's Marine Services
segment totaled $63,696,000 for the first nine months of 1999, a 5% decline
compared with $67,262,000 for the first nine months of 1998. The decline in
operating revenues resulted primarily from reduced tonnage shipped. The major
reason for the decrease is because of the lower water levels on the Great Lakes.
The vessels are limited in the cargo they can carry by the depth of the lakes
and rivers. Also contributing to the decline is that the 1998 sailing season on
the Great Lakes opened under more favorable weather conditions compared with
1999, providing an opportunity for an early start to the 1998 season.

                        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
                        ---------------------------------

                NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO
                      NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998

         Industrial Sands: Net sales for the Company's Industrial Sands segment
of $36,919,000 for the first nine months of 1999 were comparable with
$36,901,000 for the same period of 1998. Increases in sales included the strong
nine-month performance of the segment's non-oilfield operations in Orange
County, California resulting from the strong construction market in the
southwestern United States and the acquisition of Colorado Silica in March 1998.
This offset the decline in net sales attributable to decreased shipments to the
oilfield services industry in the first half of 1999 compared with 1998. This
drop in sales was principally due to continued decline in oil prices and related
oilfield demand for frac sands. Accordingly, the demand declined for sands
provided to oilfields by the Brady, Texas, Bakersfield, California and
Riverside, California operations. This demand showed signs of recovery in the
third quarter of 1999.

Cost of Goods Sold and Operating Expenses
- -----------------------------------------

         Lime and Limestone: Cost of goods sold for the Lime and Limestone
segment totaled $79,054,000 for the first nine months of 1999, compared with
$39,388,000 in the first nine months of 1998, an increase of 101%. The increase
in costs is attributable to the timing of the Lime and Limestone Acquisitions.
Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased to 68% for the first
nine months of 1999 compared with 66% in the same period of 1998 due to the
timing of acquisitions.

         Marine Services: Operating expenses for the Marine Services segment
totaled $42,549,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, compared with
$43,638,000 for the same period in 1998, a decrease of $1,089,000, or 2%.
Operating expenses as a percentage of operating revenues increased to 67% in the
first nine months of 1999 compared with 65% during the first nine months of
1998. The slight increase in operating expenses as a percentage of operating
revenues was because of lower Marine Services' revenues because of lower Great
Lakes water levels limiting tonnage shipped per vessel and an increase in fuel
prices.

         Industrial Sands: Cost of goods sold for the Industrial Sands segment
decreased $756,000, or 3%, to $22,633,000 for the first three quarters of 1999
down from $23,389,000 for the same period in 1998. Cost of goods sold as a
percentage of net sales were lower at 61% for the first nine months of 1999
compared with 63% for the same period in 1998. This reduction is primarily the
result of improved operating efficiencies at our Orange County, California
operations resulting from the strong demand from that operation.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization
- ----------------------------------------

         Primarily as a result of the Lime and Limestone Acquisitions,
depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased by 43% to a level of
$20,376,000 for the first nine months of 1999 compared with $14,236,000 for the
same period of 1998. Equipment expansion at the Industrial Sands' Orange County,
California facility also contributed to the increase. Depreciation, depletion
and amortization as a percentage of revenue is 9% in both 1999 and 1998.

                      NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998

General, Administrative and Selling Expenses
- --------------------------------------------

         As a result of the Lime and Limestone Acquisitions, total general,
administrative and selling expenses increased $2,561,000 or 17% to $17,878,000
for first nine months of 1999 compared with $15,317,000 for the same period of
1998. The percentage of general and administrative expenses to total net sales
and operating revenues declined to 8% in the first nine months of 1999 compared
with 9% in the first nine months of 1998. In addition, corporate general and
administrative expenses declined in the nine months ended September 30, 1999
compared with the same period of 1998 by $438,000, or 13%. The reduction in
these expenses was primarily the result of a decrease in the Company's net cost
for its defined benefit plans in the first nine months of 1999 compared with
1998.

Income From Operations
- ----------------------

         Lime and Limestone: The Lime and Limestone segment contributed
$16,862,000 to income from operations for the first nine months of 1999, an
increase of 94% compared with $8,715,000 in the first nine months of 1998. As
previously discussed, the increase in operating income is the direct result of
the timing of the Lime and Limestone Acquisitions.

         Marine Services: The Company's Marine Services segment had income from
operations of $14,024,000 for the first three quarters of 1999, a decrease of
17% compared with operating income of $16,798,000 for the same period of 1998.
The reduction in operating income was the result of lower Great Lakes water
levels reducing the tonnage shipped per vessel, and an increase in fuel prices.

         Industrial Sands: Income from operations for the Industrial Sands
segment increased $197,000, or 3% to $7,042,000 for the first nine months of
1999 compared with $6,845,000 for the same period of 1998. The increase in
operating income was primarily led by the increased demand at the non-oilfield
operations in Orange County, California resulting from the strong construction
market in the southwestern United States and the March 1998 Colorado Silica
acquisition. This increase was substantially offset by the decline in income
from operations because of reduced oilfield demand for sand supplied by the
Brady, Texas, Bakersfield, California and Riverside, California operations,
primarily in the first six months of 1999 compared with 1998.

         Corporate and Other: Certain cost of goods sold and general and
administrative expenses are not allocated to the business segments. Accordingly,
Corporate and Other recognized a loss of $3,296,000 in the first nine months of
1999, which was $1,241,000, or 27% less than the $4,537,000 loss for the first
nine months of 1998. The reduction in loss was primarily the result of a
decrease in the Company's net cost for its defined benefit plans.

Other
- -----

         Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 increased
95% to $23,125,000 compared with $11,889,000 for the same period of 1998. The
increase in interest expense is principally the result of increased debt levels
and the amortization of financing costs related to the Lime and Limestone
Acquisitions.

                        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
                        ---------------------------------

                THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO
                      THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998

         The Company's net sales and operating revenues of $85,377,000 in the
third quarter of 1999 was comparable with net sales and operating revenues of
$85,845,000 for the same quarter in 1998. Income from operations for the third
quarter of 1999 was $15,391,000 compared with $15,737,000 for the same quarter
in 1998. The Company reported net income of $6,430,000 ($1.32 per share -
assuming dilution) for the three months ended September 30,1999, compared with
net income of $5,679,000 ($1.19 per share - assuming dilution) for the same
period in 1998. The 2% decrease in income from operations can be primarily
attributed to the lower Great Lakes water levels reducing the tonnage shipped
per vessel, decreasing revenues and income for Marine Services. The $751,000 or
13% increase in net income was primarily the result of gain on the sale of a
dock in Detroit, Michigan that was part of Lime and Limestone's Port Inland
Operation.

         Operating results of the Company's business segments for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 are discussed below.

Net Sales and Operating Revenues
- --------------------------------

         Lime and Limestone: Net sales for the Company's Lime and Limestone
segment totaled $40,468,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999
compared with $40,575,000 in the same quarter of 1998. The 1999 Global Stone
Winchester and the third quarter 1998 Filler Products acquisitions increased
third quarter sales. This was offset by the disposition of Global Stone Detroit
Lime in August 1999. Additionally, Port Inland experienced a 22% reduction in
sales as aggregate stone sales have decreased in the Great Lakes region, and
chemical stone sales have decreased to all regions as well.

         Marine Services: Operating revenues for the Company's Marine Services
segment decreased by $1,296,000 or 4%, to $31,250,000 for the third quarter of
1999 from $32,546,000 for the third quarter of 1998. The reduction in operating
revenues was primarily from lower water levels in the Great Lakes, which reduced
the tonnage shipped per vessel trip. All twelve vessels were fully booked in
both third quarter of 1999 and 1998.

         Industrial Sands: Net sales for the Company's Industrial Sands segment
totaled $13,659,000 in the three months ended September 30, 1999, an increase of
7% from $12,724,000 for the same quarter of 1998. The increase in net sales is
attributable to the increased demand in the segment's non-oilfield Orange
County, California operations resulting from the strong construction market in
the southwestern United States. . Additionally, the demand for sands provided to
the oilfield by the Brady, Texas operation showed signs of recovery in the third
quarter of 1999.

                        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
                        ---------------------------------

                THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO
                      THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998



Cost of Goods Sold and Operating Expenses
- -----------------------------------------

         Lime and Limestone: Cost of goods sold for the Lime and Limestone
segment totaled $27,438,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999,
compared with $26,722,000 in the three months ended September 30, 1998, an
increase of 3%. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was 68% in the
third quarter of 1999 and 66% in the third quarter of 1998. Cost of goods sold
was higher in 1999 because of repair costs related to the shutdown of both lime
kilns at the Global Stone St. Clair operation in Marble City, Oklahoma.

         Marine Services: Operating expenses for the Marine Services segment
totaled $21,130,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999, compared with
$20,944,000 for the same period in 1998, a increase of $186,000, or 1%.
Operating expenses as a percentage of operating revenues was 68% in the third
quarter of 1999 and 64% in the third quarter of 1998. The increase in operating
expenses as a percentage of operating revenues resulted from decreased revenues
attributable to lower Great Lakes water levels which reduced tonnage shipped per
vessel, and from a 10% increase in fuel prices.

         Industrial Sands: Cost of goods sold for the Industrial Sands segment
increased $162,000, or 2%, to $8,007,000 in the third quarter of 1999 from
$7,845,000 for the same period in 1998. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of
net sales was lower at 59% for the third quarter of 1999 compared with 62% for
the same quarter of 1998. This reduction is primarily the result of improved
operating efficiencies at our Orange County, California operations resulting
from the strong demand for construction sand from that operation.


Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization
- ----------------------------------------

         Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense decreased 6% to
$7,391,000 for the third quarter of 1999 compared with $7,849,000 for the same
period of 1998. The decrease in depreciation reflects assets dispositions
related to Port Inland's Detroit Dock and the Global Stone Detroit Lime
transactions, partially offset by equipment purchases at the Industrial Sands'
Orange County, California facility.

General, Administrative and Selling Expenses
- --------------------------------------------

         Total general, administrative and selling expenses were $6,020,000 for
third quarter of 1999, compared with $6,718,000 for 1998, a decrease of $698,000
or 10%. The percentage of general, administrative and selling expenses to total
net sales and operating revenues declined to 7% in the third quarter of 1999
compared with 8% in the third quarter of 1998. General and administrative
expenses were down in Port Inland because of lower commissions resulting from
lower sales.

                        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
                        ---------------------------------

                THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO
                      THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998


Income From Operations
- ----------------------

         Lime and Limestone: The Lime and Limestone segment contributed
$6,513,000 to income from operations for the three months ended September 30,
1999, compared with $6,123,000 in 1998. The 6% increase in operating income is
the result of the timing of the Global Stone Winchester and Filler Products
acquisitions, offset by the reduced operating income from the third quarter
dispositions of Global Stone Detroit Lime and Global Stone Ingersoll.

         Marine Services: The Company's Marine Services segment had income from
operations of $6,874,000 for the third quarter of 1999, compared with operating
income of $8,535,000 for the same quarter of 1998. The $1,661,000 or 19%
reduction in operating income was the result of lower Great Lakes water levels,
which limited the tonnage shipped per vessel trip, and higher fuel prices
compared with the same period of 1998.

         Industrial Sands: Income from operations for the Industrial Sands
segment was $3,139,000 for the third quarter of 1999 compared with $2,492,000
for the same period of 1998. The increase of $647,000 or 26% in income from
operations was principally the result of increased demand at the non-oilfield
Orange County, California operations resulting from the strong construction
market in the southwestern United States.

         Corporate and Other: Certain cost of goods sold and general and
administrative expenses are not allocated to the business segments. Accordingly,
Corporate and Other recognized a loss of $1,135,000 in the third quarter of
1999, which was $278,000 less, or 20% than the $1,413,000 loss for the three
months ended September 30, 1998. The reduction in loss was primarily the result
of a decrease in the Company's net cost for its retiree supplemental benefits.

Other
- -----

         Interest expense for the third quarter of 1999 increased 5% to
$7,804,000 in the third quarter of 1999 compared with $7,441,000 for the same
period of 1998. The increase in interest expense is principally the result of
increased debt levels attributable to the 1999 Global Stone Winchester
acquisition and third quarter 1998 Filler Product acquisition. The debt levels
were significantly reduced late in the third quarter of 1999 with the proceeds
received from the disposition of Global Stone Ingersoll and Global Stone Detroit
Lime.

                              YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

         The Company continues to address the impact of the Year 2000 issue on
its business. This issue affects computer systems that have date-sensitive
programs that may not properly recognize the year 2000. Specifically, with
respect to the Company, this issue affects not only the computer software and
hardware but also machines and equipment used in production that contain
embedded computer chips.

         The Company has reviewed and assessed its information system hardware,
business system software, production system hardware and other systems and
technology used in its internal business operations and its production. Based on
this review and assessment, the Company believes that the majority of its
internal systems are Year 2000 compliant and that any non-compliance will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company completed its
internal Year 2000 remediation efforts in the third quarter of 1999 with the
implementation of a new order processing system for both the Industrial Sands
and Lime and Limestone business segments.

         As part of its Year 2000 program, the Company has also made efforts to
determine and assess the Year 2000 compliance status of third parties with which
it does business. During 1997, the Company sent a detailed questionnaire to its
customers, suppliers, financial institutions and others to obtain information
relating to the status of such third parties with respect to Year 2000 issues.
Of the total questionnaires sent out, 95% of these third parties have returned
their questionnaires to the Company. The Company is following up on the balance
of the questionnaires not returned. Based upon its review of the returned
questionnaires, the Company does not believe that it will experience material
disruption of its operations as a result of third parties' Year 2000
noncompliance. In addition, since sending the questionnaires, the Company has
maintained ongoing correspondence with its suppliers regarding Year 2000 issues
and placed particular emphasis on determining the Year 2000 readiness of its
critical suppliers.

         Due to the uncertainties associated with Year 2000 problems, the
Company has developed a contingency plan to use manual entry in its accounting
and order entry system in the event that its business or operations are
disrupted as of January 1, 2000.

         The Company currently expects to incur total expenditures approximating
$250,000 in connection with its Year 2000 remediation efforts. The Company
believes that any additional cost, if any, of its remediation effort will not
have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or
financial condition.

         The Company believes it completed its internal Year 2000 compliance
efforts. The remaining expenses related to the Company's Year 2000 compliance
and remediation efforts are management's best estimates, which are based on
assumptions of future events, including the availability of certain resources,
third party modification plans and other factors. There can be no assurances
that these results and estimates will be achieved, and the actual results could
materially differ from those anticipated. A specific factor that might cause
such material differences is the ability to locate and correct all relevant
computer codes. In addition, there can be no assurances that the systems or
products of third parties on which the Company relies will be timely converted
or that a failure by a third party, or a conversion that is incompatible with
the Company's systems, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

                            FIFTH AMENDMENT AGREEMENT


         THIS FIFTH AMENDMENT AGREEMENT ("Amendment") is made as of the 23rd day
of July, 1999, by and among OGLEBAY NORTON COMPANY, formerly known as Oglebay
Norton Holding Company, a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"), as assignee of ON

         through June 30, 2000, and (ii) Seventy Million Dollars ($70,000,000)
         on July 1, 2000 and thereafter, based upon the financial statements of
         the Companies for the most recently completed four (4) fiscal quarters.

         5. Borrower has informed Agent and the Banks that Global Stone
Corporation intends to sell all of the outstanding capital stock of Global Stone
Ingersoll Ltd ("Ingersoll Stock"). Borrower has requested that Agent and the

violate or conflict with the organizational agreements of Borrower or any law
applicable to Borrower or result in a breach of any provision of or constitute a
default under any other agreement, instrument or document binding upon or
enforceable against Borrower; (d) no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of
Default exists under the Credit Agreement, nor will any occur immediately after

releases Agent and each of the Banks and their respective directors, officers,
employees, attorneys, affiliates and subsidiaries from any and all such claims,
offsets, defenses and counterclaims of which Borrower and any Pledgor is aware,
such waiver and release being with full knowledge and understanding of the
circumstances and effect thereof and after having consulted legal counsel with
respect thereto.

         10. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, by
different parties hereto in separate counterparts and by facsimile signature,
each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original
and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.

         11. The rights and obligations of all parties hereto shall be governed
by the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to principles of conflicts of
laws.
