                          ----------------------------


The Administrative Committee
Eagle-Picher Salaried 401(k) Plan
(Formerly Eagle-Picher Savings Plan):

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets available for plan
benefits of the Eagle-Picher Salaried 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 1994 and
May 31, 1994, and the related statements of changes in assets available for
plan benefits for the seven month period ended December 31, 1994 and year ended
May 31, 1994.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 5, on January 7, 1991, Eagle-Picher Industries, Inc. and
seven of its subsidiaries, filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter
11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court
and are currently operating their businesses as debtors-in-possession under the
jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 1994 and May 31, 1994, and the changes in assets available for
plan benefits for the seven month period ended December 31, 1994 and for the
year ended May 31, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedule of
Investments is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974.  The Fund Information in the statements of assets available for plan
benefits and the statements of changes in assets available for plan benefits is
presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the assets
available for plan benefits and changes in assets available for plan benefits
of each fund.  The supplemental schedule and Fund Information have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                       EAGLE-PICHER SALARIED 401(k) PLAN
                      (Formerly Eagle-Picher Savings Plan)

                         Notes to Financial Statements


(1)      Plan Description
         ----------------
The following description of the Eagle-Picher Salaried 401(k) Plan (formerly
Eagle-Picher Savings Plan) (the Plan) provides only general information.
Effective December 31, 1994, the Michigan Automotive Research Corporation
Employees Retirement Savings Plan (the MARCO plan) was merged into the Plan.
Since that date the Plan has been comprised of two plan documents with assets
held in two separate trusts.  Non-manager employees of MARCO (the MARCO plan
participants) participate under the MARCO plan document (the MARCO document)
and the related assets are held in trust at First of America Bank.  All other
participants participate under the Eagle-Picher Salaried 401(k) Plan document
(the Eagle-Picher document), and the related assets are held in trust at
Wachovia Bank and Trust Company, N.A.  Participants under each of the plan
documents should refer to their specific Summary Plan Description or Plan
Document for a more complete description of the provisions applicable to them.

         General
         -------
The Plan is a defined contribution plan and is subject to the provisions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).  All salaried
employees (except nonresident aliens) of Eagle-Picher Industries, Inc.(EPI), of
its subsidiaries, Daisy Parts, Inc., Eagle-Picher Minerals, Inc., and Hillsdale
Tool & Manufacturing Co., and the managers of its Michigan Automotive Research
Corporation (MARCO) subsidiary are eligible to participate under the
Eagle-Picher document after one year of service.  The MARCO plan participants
are eligible to participate under the MARCO document after age 20 1/2 and
completion of six months of employment.

         Contributions
         -------------
Participants under the Eagle-Picher document may make a pre-tax deferral of a
percentage of their base compensation up to the limits established under
Internal Revenue Code 401(a)(17).  These pre-tax deferrals may be made only in
whole percentage increments of one to fifteen percent of the participant's base
compensation.  Participants under the MARCO document may designate a dollar
amount to be deferred from each pay check on a pre-tax basis.  These pre-tax
deferrals under either document may not exceed limitations established under
Section 402(g) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The employers of participants under the Eagle-Picher document currently match
50% of the first six percent of compensation which participants contribute.
MARCO matches deferrals under the MARCO document at a rate determined by the
administrative committee.  Both the participant deferrals and the employer      
match under each document are invested in such of the funds described in Note 3
in accordance with the participants' elections.

         Rollover Contributions 
         ---------------------- 

Funds previously held for a participant's account in another employee
benefit plan may be rolled over to the Plan on a tax-free basis.  A participant
is fully vested at all  times in such amounts transferred into the Plan.
Rollover contributions share in income and earnings under the terms of the
Plan, but no employer  contributions are made with respect to any rollover
contribution.

         Participant Accounts
         --------------------

Earnings and losses attributable to investments are allocated to participants'
accounts on a pro rata basis according to the proportion each individual account
balances bears to the total of all participants' account balances.

         Vesting
         -------
Participants are fully vested with respect to all contributions (participant,
and employer and roll over) and earnings (losses) of the Plan.

                    Notes to Financial Statements, Continued

         Plan Description, Continued
         ---------------------------

         Benefits 
         -------- 

At a participant's request, distributions may be made when
the participant reaches the age of 59 1/2, regardless of the participant's
employment status at such time.  A participant's account may also
be distributed because of termination of employment, permanent disability,
death, or financial hardship.

Benefit payments must commence by the March allocation date in the calendar     
year following the calendar year in which a participant reaches age 70- 1/2,
even if the participant has not separated from service or elected to commence
benefit payments.

Amounts included in assets available for plan benefits which are allocated to
the accounts of persons who have withdrawn from participation in the earnings
and operations of the Plan totalled approximately $196,000 and $389,000 at      
December 31, 1994 and May 31, 1994, respectively.  Because the plan's Form 5500
reflects these amounts as benefits payable, they are reconciling items to the
Plan's financial statements.

         Change in Plan Name 
         ------------------- 
Effective June 1, 1994, the Plan changed its name from the Eagle-Picher
Savings Plan to the Eagle-Picher Salaried 401(k) Plan.

         Change in Fiscal Year
         ---------------------
The Plan changed its fiscal year end from May 31 to December 31.  This change
was effective June 1, 1994.

         Plan Amendment or Termination 
         ----------------------------- 
Although EPI does not currently expect to amend or terminate the Plan, it
reserves the right to amend or to terminate the Plan, in whole or in part, at
any time.  Any of the adopting employers reserve the right to withdraw from
the Plan at any time.   In the event of termination of the Plan or an
employer's withdrawal from the Plan, the assets will be distributed to
participants in accordance with the Plan's provisions and existing laws and
regulations.


(2)      Significant Accounting Policies
         -------------------------------
The accompanying financial statements of the Plan have been prepared on an
accrual basis of accounting.

         Master Trust Held by Wachovia Bank
         ----------------------------------
Under the terms of a trust agreement between Wachovia Bank and Trust Company,
N.A. (Trustee) and EPI, the Trustee serves as Trustee Custodian for a Master
Trust Fund in which the Plan participates.  The Master Trust Fund Trustee
invests the contributions in the funds designated by the participants.

Income, gains or losses on the investment transactions and unrealized gains or
losses are allocated on a percentage participation basis to the trust funds
which comprise the Master Trust Fund.

Investments are stated at fair value.  Fair value of investments in securities
is determined by the Trustee.  

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade-date (the date the order
to buy or sell is executed).  The basis used in the calculation of realized
gains and losses on sales of securities is determined using the average cost
method.
        
         Common Stock of Eagle-Picher Industries, Inc.
         ---------------------------------------------
Since November 15, 1993, the securities of EPI have been traded 
over-the-counter (see Note 5).  The fair value is determined by the bid price.
Prior to that date, the fair value of these securities was determined from
the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange.

         ------------------------------------------

         First of America Bank Trust (FAB Trust)
         ---------------------------------------
The assets related to the MARCO plan participants are held in trust by First of
America Bank (the FAB Trustee) under the terms of a trust agreement with MARCO.

Investments are stated at fair value.  Fair value of investments in securities
is determined by the FAB Trustee.

         Expenses
         --------
All expenses of administering the Plan are paid by the employers.


(3)      Investments
         -----------
EPI has entered into a trust agreement with the Trustee with respect to the
operation of the Plan and the establishment and management of the trust fund
(except as to the assets related to the MARCO plan participants).  Until
November 30, 1992, the Trustee invested all participant contributions to the
Plan in three investment funds, as directed by the individual participants.
The three funds are:

         
         *                THE MONEY MARKET FUND - A money market fund managed
                          by the Trustee seeking stability of value while
                          earning current interest rates available from
                          commercial paper, certificates of deposit and other
                          short term investments.

         *                THE S&P 500 INDEX FUND - A diversified common stock
                          fund managed by the American National Bank with the
                          primary objective of long-term capital growth, with
                          income and safety as secondary considerations.  It
                          invests in the Common Stock of the companies that
                          comprise the Standard and Poor's 500 Index.

         *                THE EAGLE-PICHER STOCK FUND - A fund invested
                          entirely in common stock of EPI.  Dividends on such
                          stock were discontinued in November, 1988; however,
                          prior to that time, these dividends were reinvested
                          in such stock.

Effective December 1, 1992, the Plan was amended and restated so that
participants no longer have the option of contributing to the Eagle-Picher
Stock Fund.  However, two additional investment funds were added so that
participants may diversify their accounts:

         *                THE BOND FUND - A fund seeking higher interest rates,
                          it invests in high quality short-term and
                          intermediate-term notes and bonds with a maximum
                          maturity of five years.
       
         *                THE SMALL STOCK INDEX FUND - A diversified common
                          stock fund managed by American National Bank
                          aggressively seeking long-term capital growth.  It
                          invests in the stock of smaller publicly-traded
                          companies.

In addition, a sixth fund (Eagle-Picher Stock Fund - Prior Plan) is maintained
by the Trustee.  This fund consists of the balances maintained in the Prior
Plan, whichautomatically became a part of the Plan upon its inception.

The investments, with the exception of the Eagle-Picher Stock Fund, the Eagle - 
Picher Stock Fund - Prior Plan and the assets related to the MARCO plan
participants, are in the Master Trust which was established for the investment
of assets of the Plan and another employer sponsored 401(k) plan.  Each
participating plan has an individual interest in the Master Trust.  At December
31, 1994, the Plan's interest in the net assets of the Master Trust was
approximately 95.9%.  Investment income is allocated to the individual plans
based upon average quarterly balances invested by each plan.

(4)      Federal Income Taxes
         --------------------
The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on February 11, 1988, in
which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed, was  
in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Plan has been amended and restated since receiving such determination
letter.  However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's tax counsel believe
that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.  Therefore, they believe
that the Plan remains qualified, and its underlying trust is tax-exempt under
the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.  An application for
determination of the qualified status of the amended and restated Plan was
filed with the Internal Revenue Service on March 31, 1995.


(5)      Bankruptcy Filing and Related Matters Affecting the Employers
         -------------------------------------------------------------
On January 7, 1991, EPI and seven of its domestic subsidiaries filed voluntary
petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in
the United States Bankruptcy Court and are currently operating their respective
businesses as debtors in possession under the jurisdiction of the
Bankruptcy Court. Neither the Plan nor any of its assets are subject to these
Chapter 11 proceedings.  However, to the extent that certain participants'
accounts may be invested, in whole or in part, in EPI's Common Stock, such
stock investments will be affected by the outcome of the Chapter 11
proceedings.

On February 28, 1995, EPI filed a plan of reorganization that provides a basis
for EPI and its subsidiaries to emerge from Chapter 11.  The plan of
reorganization was filed in conjunction with the Injury Claimants' Committee    
and the Legal Representative for Future Claimants.  It is not currently a
consensual plan as the Unsecured Creditors' Committee and the Equity Security
Holders' Committee, the other statutory committees appointed in the Chapter 11
case, have not agreed to it.  The plan of reorganization is a proposed plan
that remains subject to the confirmation process in the Bankruptcy Court. 

Under the Bankruptcy Code, shareholders are not entitled to any distribution
under a plan of reorganization unless all classes of pre-petition unsecured
creditors receive satisfaction in full of their allowed claims or accept a plan
which allows shareholders to participate in the reorganized company or to
receive a distribution.   The plan of reorganization that was filed does not
provide for any distribution to the existing common shareholders of EPI; their
shares would be cancelled.  As a consequence of announcing that an agreement had
been reached as to the principal elements of the plan of reorganization on
November 10, 1993, trading in EPI's Common Stock was suspended, and subsequently
EPI's Common Stock was removed from listing and registration on the New York
Stock Exchange effective June 9, 1994.
