ITEM 5.   OTHER EVENTS

On April 30, 1999, the Honorable Allen Sharp, U.S. District Court Judge for
the Northern District of Indiana, issued a preliminary injunction order
(the "Order"), pursuant to which The B.F.Goodrich Company ("BFGoodrich")
and Coltec Industries Inc ("Coltec"), together with their agents,
employees, affiliates and successors, are enjoined from closing the
proposed merger transaction (the Merger") between BFGoodrich and Coltec
prior to final resolution on the merits of the AlliedSignal Litigation
referred to below. Unless extended, the Order will expire at midnight on
July 16, 1999. The Order relates to the lawsuit filed by AlliedSignal, Inc.
on February 26, 1999 in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Indiana against Coltec, Menasco Aerospace Ltd, which is a
subsidiary of Coltec, and BFGoodrich (the "AlliedSignal Litigation"). As
previously disclosed, the AlliedSignal Litigation seeks to prevent the
Merger. Judge Sharp has scheduled a hearing on the merits of the
AlliedSignal Litigation for July 12, 1999. As previously disclosed, Coltec
and BFGoodrich intend to vigorously defend the matters relating to the
AlliedSignal Litigation; however, the outcome of these matters could delay
or prevent the Merger.
