             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)


The condensed consolidated financial statements of Johns Manville Corporation
(the "Company") as of September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 and for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 reflect all normal, recurring
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial condition and the results of operations for the
periods presented. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived
from audited financial statements, and as presented does not include all
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The Company
has reclassified the presentation of certain prior period information to conform
with the current presentation format. Additional information regarding the
Company's accounting policies, operations and financial position is contained or
incorporated in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Note 1 - Inventories

The major classes of inventories were as follows:

                                                  =========================== 
</TABLE>

Note 2 - Other Income (Expense), net

The Company sold its five percent net smelter royalty on certain metals produced
by the Stillwater Mining Company for cash resulting in other income of $36
million in April 1998.

Note 3 - Income Taxes

The Company's year-to-date effective tax rates were approximately 27 percent in
1998 and 1997. The Company receives a tax deduction and a related reduction in
its effective tax rate when the Manville Personal Injury Settlement Trust (the
"Trust") pays claimants or makes distributions to a specific settlement fund
from dividends paid on, or proceeds received from disposition of, Company stock
held by the Trust (see Note 6). The Company benefited from such distribution of
dividend and stock sale proceeds to the settlement fund and from the utilization
of tax credits.

Note 4 - Debt

In May 1998, the Company repurchased, through a cash tender offer, substantially
all of its $400 million of 10 7/8% Senior Notes due 2004 (the "Senior Notes").
This transaction resulted in an extraordinary loss on the early extinguishment
of debt of $31.8 million, net of taxes of $18.1 million, in the second quarter
of 1998. In conjunction with the tender offer, the Company arranged unsecured
multicurrency revolving credit facilities (the "Credit Facilities") totaling
approximately $750 million at a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus an
additional margin, with an initial termination date of May 15, 2003. The Company
used $450 million of the Credit Facilities to repurchase the Senior Notes. At
September 30, 1998, 

                                       I-6
<PAGE>
 
$367 million of borrowings under the Credit Facilities were outstanding. The
remaining Credit Facilities are available for funding acquisitions and capital
expenditures, and other corporate purposes. The Company also canceled its $100
million receivables sale facility and its $75 million revolving line of credit
available to international subsidiaries during the second quarter.

In order to fix a portion of the Company's variable interest rate debt and
reduce the aggregate risk to movements in interest rates, the Company entered
into interest rate swap transactions with notional values totaling approximately
$240 million. In addition to reducing risk, the interest rate swaps have a
correlation to the underlying debt obligation, and therefore, qualify for hedge
accounting. Related amounts payable or receivable are accrued on a current basis
as adjustments to interest expense. Any gains (losses) on the termination of the
interest rate swaps are deferred and recognized over periods corresponding to
the related obligation being hedged. The Company does not use derivative
instruments for trading purposes. At September 30, 1998, the fair market value
of these instruments reflected unrecognized losses of approximately $8.4
million. The Company also has a treasury lock outstanding with a notional value
of $25 million and a strike interest rate of 4.53 percent, with no significant
unrecognized gain or loss.

Note 5 - Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change

Effective January 1, 1998, the Company changed its method of accounting for
glass furnace rebuild costs to the capitalization method from the allowance
method. Under the capitalization method, costs to periodically rebuild the
refractory components of the glass furnaces are capitalized when incurred and
depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the
rebuild. The capitalization method provides an improved measure of the Company's
capital investment and is consistent with industry practice. Previously,
estimated costs to rebuild furnaces were credited to an allowance and charged to
operations over the estimated period to the next rebuild date. The cumulative
effect of this change in accounting principle increases 1998 earnings by $27.4
million, net of taxes of $17.9 million. This change resulted in an increase in
depreciation expense but eliminated the provision for furnace rebuilds. The pro
forma effect of this change on net income was not material.

Note 6 - Earnings Per Common Share and Equity

Basic and diluted earnings per common share amounts were determined using the
reported net income and the following common equivalent shares:

<TABLE>
                               Third Quarter               First Nine Months
                        1998            1997         1998               1997
               -----------------------------  ------------------------------
<S>            <C>             <C>            <C>          <C>
    Basic        159,158,000     161,554,000  160,267,000        161,535,000
    Diluted      161,346,000     163,281,000  162,201,000        163,111,000
</TABLE>

The difference between the basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding
is due to stock options, deferred stock rights and contingent shares.

The Company paid regular quarterly dividends of $0.04 per common share totaling
$6.3 million, and $0.12 per common share totaling $19.3 million, for the third
quarter and first nine months of 1998, respectively. The Company paid regular
quarterly dividends of $0.03 per common share totaling $4.8 million, and $0.09
per common share totaling $14.5 million, for the third quarter and first nine
months of 1997, respectively. During the third quarter of 1998, the Company
increased the quarterly dividend rate from $0.04 to $0.06 per share, payable
in the fourth quarter.

                                       I-7

<PAGE>
 
In April 1998, the Company purchased 3.6 million shares of its common stock from
the Trust at $13 per share. Accordingly, the Company recorded treasury stock, at
cost, of $46.8 million in the second quarter of 1998.

Note 7 - Comprehensive Income

Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." Comprehensive income
generally includes changes in separately reported components of equity along
with net income. The Company's comprehensive income for 1998 and 1997 includes
net income as reported and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Note 8 - Discontinued Operations

During the third quarter of 1997, the Company adjusted the gain recognized in
1996 on the disposition of Riverwood International Corporation ("Riverwood").
The adjustment, resulting in an additional net gain on disposal of discontinued
operations of $19.5 million, of which $8.2 million related to income taxes,
arose from the termination of certain indemnification obligations to the
purchaser of Riverwood and from the determination of certain income tax
consequences of the disposition, which were finalized with the completion of the
Company's 1996 income tax returns.

Note 9 - Acquisitions

In January 1998, the Company acquired the assets of a U.S. manufacturer of
reinforced thermoplastic roofing systems and also acquired a plant associated
with the Insulation segment, which manufactures calcium silicate pipe and block
insulation, and fireproof board. In May 1998, the Company acquired Exeltherm, a
Canadian producer of polyisocyanurate foam products for commercial/industrial
roofing and residential construction. Also in May 1998, the Company acquired
Skandinaviska Jute, which owns Tasso AB, a European manufacturer of fiber glass
wall coverings. This acquisition is associated with businesses of the Engineered
Products segment.

The combined purchase price for these acquisitions, accounted for under the
purchase method, was $55 million which was financed from existing cash balances.
The excess of the combined purchase prices over the estimated fair value of net
assets acquired, or goodwill, amounted to approximately $32 million.

Note 10 - New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions
and Other Postretirement Benefits." This statement, effective for periods
beginning after December 15, 1997, revises the required disclosures for retiree
benefit plans, but does not change the measurement or recognition of such plans.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities." This statement, effective for all fiscal quarters of
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999, establishes accounting and reporting
standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. It requires
that the Company recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in
the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value.
At this time, the Company cannot determine the effects, if any, adopting this
statement will have on its financial condition, liquidity or results of
operations.

                                      I-8

Note 11 - Business Segment Information

The Company reports separately the results of the Insulation, Roofing Systems
and Engineered Products segments. The Insulation segment consists of the
Company's building, commercial/industrial and original equipment manufacturers
("OEM") insulation businesses. The Roofing Systems segment consists of the
Company's commercial/industrial roofing systems business. The Engineered
Products segment consists of the Company's mats and fibers and filtration
businesses. Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." Consistent with the Company's internal
reporting, business segments now include allocated corporate expenses. The 1997
results were reclassified to conform with the current presentation format.

ITEM 2.

                          JOHNS MANVILLE CORPORATION
                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company's net sales in the third quarter of 1998 increased $50.1 million, or
11.4 percent, to $488.2 million compared with $438.1 million for the same period
of 1997.  Gross profit increased $17.3 million to $130.2 million from $112.9
million. The gross profit margin for the third quarter of 1998 increased to 26.7
percent from 25.8 percent for the same period of 1997 due to an improved pricing
environment in building insulation, partially offset by increased fixed costs
and pricing declines in the commercial/industrial insulation and filtration
businesses.  Selling, general and administrative and research, development and
engineering expenses, combined, increased $2.9 million, or 5.7 percent, to $53.6
million in 1998 but were lower as a percentage of sales at 11 percent compared
with 11.6 percent for 1997.  Income from operations for the third quarter of
1998 was $72.4 million, up 25 percent, compared with $57.9 million for the third
quarter of 1997.

The Company's net sales for the first nine months of 1998 increased $77.6
million, or 6.2 percent, to $1.32 billion compared with $1.25 billion for the
same period of 1997.  Gross profit increased $14.3 million to $345.8 million
from $331.5 million. The gross profit margin for the first nine months of 1998
declined to 26.1 percent from 26.6 percent due to lower year-to-date selling
prices.  Selling, general, administrative and research, development and
engineering expenses, combined, increased $7.4 million, or 4.9 percent, to
$157.4 million and were slightly lower as a percentage of sales.  Other income
was $30.2 million for the first nine months of 1998 compared with other expense
of $10.7 million for the same period of 1997. Other income for 1998 included
proceeds of $36 million from a mining royalty sale. Exclusive of the mining
royalty sale proceeds, income from operations for the first nine months of 1998
was $182.5 million, up 6.9 percent, compared with $170.6 million for 1997.

Consistent with the Company's internal reporting, business segments discussed
below include allocated corporate expenses, except for the mining royalty sale
proceeds.

Insulation Segment

The Insulation segment's net sales increased $18.4 million, or 10.4 percent, and
$4.6 million, or 1 percent, for the third quarter and first nine months of 1998,
respectively, compared with the same periods of 1997.  Income from operations
increased $14.4 million, or 65.5 percent, and $7.2 million, or 10.2 percent, for
the third quarter and first nine months of 1998, respectively, compared with the
same periods of 1997.  The third quarter results reflect an improved pricing
environment, strong demand and improved operating efficiencies in the building
insulation business.  These increases in the first nine months were partially
offset by lower average selling prices in the first half of 1998, compared with
1997.  While commercial/industrial businesses reflected higher sales volumes,
gross margins and operating income were negatively impacted by lower selling
prices and downtime for equipment upgrades (completed in July) during 1998
compared with the same periods of 1997. During the third quarter and first nine
months of 1998, competition from alternate materials resulted in lower sales of
automotive products.

                                     I-10
<PAGE>
 
Roofing Systems Segment

Net sales for the Roofing Systems segment increased $20.5 million, or 14.1
percent, and $37.7 million, or 9.9 percent, for the third quarter and first nine
months of 1998, respectively, compared with the same periods of 1997 due
primarily to incremental volume increases from the recent thermoplastic
membranes acquisitions. Excluding the impacts of acquisitions, net sales
improved slightly and moderately for the third quarter and first nine months of
1998, respectively, compared with 1997.  Income from operations increased
slightly to $19 million from $17.9 million and to $38.7 million from $38 million
for the third quarter and first nine months of 1998, respectively, compared with
the same periods of 1997.  Volume gains in both 1998 periods were partially
offset by acquisition-related costs, a less favorable product mix and pricing
pressures in Polyiso foam products, while adverse weather conditions earlier in
the year also reduced year-to-date operating income.

Engineered Products Segment

The Engineered Products segment's net sales increased $10.7 million, or 8.6
percent, and $29.5 million, or 8.1 percent, for the third quarter and first nine
months of 1998, respectively, compared with the same periods of 1997.  Income
from operations decreased $1 million, or 5.8 percent, and increased $3.9
million, or 6.4 percent, for the same periods of 1997.  The sales increases are
primarily due to the May 1997 acquisition of Mitex and the May 1998 acquisition
of Tasso AB, both European manufacturers of fiber glass wall covering fabrics.
Sales for the third quarter of 1998 were also adversely affected by slower
economic activity in Eastern Europe and Asia.  Volume increases in the U.S. mats
and fibers business were partially offset by weather-related declines in roofing
mat shipments and lower selling prices during the first half of 1998. Results in
filtration decreased for the third quarter and first nine months of 1998 due to
lower selling prices and a worldwide slow-down in clean room builds.

Other Income (Expense)

The Company sold its five percent net smelter royalty on certain metals produced
by the Stillwater Mining Company for cash resulting in other income of $36
million in April 1998.

Interest

Compared with the corresponding quarter and nine month periods of 1997, the
Company's interest income decreased due to lower average cash and marketable
securities balances.

The Company's interest expense decreased $5.1 million and $8.2 million for the
third quarter and the first nine months of 1998 compared with the same periods
of 1997 primarily due to the repurchase of substantially all of the Company's
$400 million of 10 7/8% Senior Notes in May 1998 using revolving credit
facilities with significantly lower interest rates.

Income Taxes

The Company's year-to-date effective tax rates were approximately 27 percent in
1998 and 1997.  The Company receives a tax deduction and a related reduction in
its effective tax rate when the Manville Personal Injury Settlement Trust (the
"Trust") pays claimants or makes distributions to a specific settlement fund
from dividends paid on, or proceeds received from disposition of, Company stock
held by the Trust. The Company benefited from such distribution of dividend and
stock sale proceeds to the settlement fund and from the utilization of tax
credits.

The Company's estimated third quarter income tax rates for both 1998 and 1997
are lower than the respective year-to-date rates in part due to increases in the
Company's quarterly dividend rate, which became effective during each of these
periods.  The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 1997 also reflected
the impact of utilizing prior years' general business credits.

                                     I-11
<PAGE>
 
Under Section 468B of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Company is responsible
for income taxes on the taxable income of the Trust's specific settlement fund
at a tax rate of 15 percent.  Any such taxes paid by the Company will generate a
tax deduction for the Company.  The Company cannot predict the amount of any
such future tax obligations.  However, related liabilities could become material
in certain situations including the Trust monetizing, and retaining the proceeds
of, a significant portion of its investment in the Company's common stock or the
settlement of this obligation between the Company and the Trust.

Discontinued Operations

During the third quarter of 1997, the Company recognized an additional $19.5
million net gain related to the 1996 disposal of the discontinued operations of
Riverwood International Corporation.

Debt

In May 1998, the Company repurchased, through a cash tender offer, substantially
all of its $400 million of 10 7/8% Senior Notes due 2004 (the "Senior Notes").
This transaction resulted in an extraordinary loss on the early extinguishment
of debt of $31.8 million ($0.19 per share), net of taxes of $18.1 million, in
the second quarter of 1998.  In conjunction with the tender offer, the Company
arranged unsecured multicurrency revolving credit facilities (the "Credit
Facilities") totaling approximately $750 million at a floating interest rate of
LIBOR plus an additional margin, with an initial termination date of May 15,
2003.  The Company used $450 million of the Credit Facilities to repurchase the
Senior Notes.  At September 30, 1998, $367 million of borrowings under the
Credit Facilities were outstanding.  The remaining Credit Facilities are
available for funding acquisitions and capital expenditures, and other corporate
purposes.  The Company also canceled its $100 million receivables sale facility
and its $75 million revolving line of credit available to international
subsidiaries during the second quarter.

Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change

Effective January 1, 1998, the Company changed its method of accounting for
glass furnace rebuild costs to the capitalization method from the allowance
method.  The cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle increases
1998 earnings by $27.4 million ($0.17 per share), net of taxes of $17.9 million.
This change resulted in an increase in depreciation expense but eliminated the
provision for furnace rebuilds.  The pro forma effect of this change on net
income was not material.

Net Income

Due to the factors discussed above, the Company's net income for the third
quarter of 1998 was $50.7 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared with net
income for the third quarter of 1997 of $58.3 million, or $0.36 per diluted
share.  Year-to-date net income for 1998 was $137.3 million, or $0.85 per
diluted share, compared with net income for the same period of 1997 of $123
million, or $0.75 per diluted share.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's agreements with its lenders contain financial and general
covenants. These include, among other things, limitations on borrowings,
investments and asset dispositions, and maintenance of various financial ratios.
Noncompliance with these or other covenants, or the occurrence of any other
event of default, could result in the termination of existing credit agreements
and the acceleration of debt owed by the Company and its subsidiaries.  At
September 30, 1998, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

At September 30, 1998, the Company had net working capital of $188.7 million,
including cash and marketable securities totaling $36.2 million.  Total cash and
marketable securities located outside the U.S. and Canada were approximately


                                     I-12
<PAGE>
 
$27.3 million. At December 31, 1997, the Company's cash and marketable
securities totaled $169.1 million. The Company had approximately $374 million
available for use at September 30, 1998 from its unsecured multicurrency
revolving credit facilities. The Company's international subsidiaries had
additional borrowing and working capital facilities totaling approximately $15
million, of which $11.1 million was available at September 30, 1998.

The Company's net operating activities provided $121.4 million of cash during
the first nine months of 1998.  Net operating activities for the same period of
1997 provided $94.3 million.  The Company's cash flows from operating activities
are primarily influenced by sales volume and selling prices.  As discussed in
"Results of Operations," the effects of increased sales volumes were partially
offset by lower selling prices experienced during the first half of 1998.
Operating activities for 1998 also included cash usages to build working capital
for the construction season, which typically peaks during the third quarter.
During 1998, operating activities also included the mining royalty sale gain,
offset by the loss on the early extinguishment of the Senior Notes.  The Company
expects 1998 operating results to continue to benefit from the integration of
acquisitions.  In addition to recent price improvements, a significantly higher
level of U.S. housing starts during 1998 compared with 1997 should continue to
benefit the building insulation business for the remainder of 1998.  Meanwhile,
slow economic activity in Eastern Europe and Asia may continue to adversely
impact results in the Engineered Products segment.  In addition, 1999 results of
operations may be adversely affected by recent interest rate and equity market
declines, which impact the Company's pension expense (income).

The Company's investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
included $55 million for acquisitions and $73.6 million for capital
expenditures. The Company estimates 1998 capital expenditures of approximately
$100 million, of which approximately $45 million relate to capacity expansion
projects.  As of September 30, 1998, outstanding purchase commitments for
capital projects totaled $24.5 million.  Investing activities for the first nine
months of 1997 included the combined purchase prices for acquisitions of $136.5
million, net of cash acquired, and capital expenditures of $67.9 million.

The Company's financing activities for the first nine months of 1998 consisted
of repayments of debt totaling $466.5 million and issuances of debt totaling
$411.8 million, net, relating primarily to the May 1998 Senior Note repurchase.
In addition, the Company purchased 3.6 million shares of its common stock from
the Trust at $13 per share, and accordingly, recognized treasury stock, at cost,
of $46.8 million in 1998. The Company paid three regular quarterly dividends
totaling $19.3 million and $14.5 million during 1998 and 1997, respectively.
During the third quarter of 1998, the Company increased the quarterly dividend
rate from $0.04 to $0.06 per share, payable in the fourth quarter. During 1997,
the Company borrowed $55 million from international credit facilities to
partially finance 1997 acquisitions, of which $10 million was repaid by
September 30, 1997. The remainder was repaid by April 1998. Also during 1997,
the Company repaid debt totaling $30 million assumed in connection with 1996
acquisitions.

Contingent Product Liability

Between 1988 and 1992, the Company manufactured phenolic roofing insulation
which may, under certain circumstances, contribute to the corrosion of metal
decks on which it is installed.  Subsequently, the Company began a voluntary
program to inspect such metal decks and remediate where appropriate.  The
Company has accrued for costs relating to future inspections, remediation and
anticipated claims.  These accruals are based on the Company's historical
experience regarding the incidence of corrosion and the cost of remediation and
include a number of assumptions related

                                     I-13
<PAGE>
 
to the types of roofs on which phenolic insulation has been installed as well as
the assumption that the Company's past remediation experience will continue over
the remaining lives of roofs insulated with the Company's phenolic roofing
insulation.

Pursuant to reimbursement agreements with the Company's liability carriers and
former owner of the phenolic roofing insulation business, the Company has been
reimbursed for a portion of historical costs incurred and is entitled to receive
reimbursement for a substantial portion of future costs to be incurred by the
Company for inspection and remediation.

In 1996, the Company and a third party were named as defendants in two class
action cases, now consolidated, filed in U.S. District Court in Boston,
Massachusetts.  The plaintiffs purport to represent all building owners in the
U.S. with phenolic insulation installed on their roof decks and seek damages and
injunctive relief, including an order requiring the removal and replacement of
the phenolic insulation and remediation of any deck corrosion.  The Company
intends to defend these allegations vigorously.

The Company has reviewed its historical inspection and remediation experience
and the terms and collectibility of amounts payable under the reimbursement
agreements in light of the contingencies described above.  Based on the
information available to date and subject to the assumptions described above, if
additional costs are incurred in excess of the accrued amounts, such costs are
not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
condition, liquidity or results of operations.

Environmental Contingencies

At September 30, 1998, the Company had remediation activities in progress at
five sites, out of a total of 16 such sites for which the Company has identified
environmental conditions requiring remediation.  In addition, the Company has
been identified as a potentially responsible party at 25 non-Company owned or
operated sites under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA") or similar state legislation.  Of
these 25 sites, the Company's potential liability for 19 sites will be
determined pursuant to the settlement agreement described in the following
paragraph.  The remaining six sites are not subject to the agreement and,
accordingly, the Company could be jointly and severally liable for costs of
remediating these sites.

In 1994, the U.S. government and the Company settled certain litigation
concerning the Company's disposal activities prior to consummation of its plan
of reorganization.  The settlement agreement, which was made an order of the
court, limits the Company's future liability under both CERCLA and the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") to 55 percent of its share of site-wide
response costs and natural resources damages without regard to joint and several
liability for disposals made by the Company prior to consummation of the
Company's plan of reorganization.  The agreement resolved the Company's
liability at certain historical sites and also covers CERCLA and RCRA liability
for other disposal sites at which the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA")
has incurred or may incur response costs and which were used by the Company
prior to the consummation of the plan of reorganization.  The agreement provides
that the amount the Company will be obligated to pay, in the aggregate, for such
sites shall never exceed $850,000 during any given year.  The EPA and others
from time to time commence cleanup activities at such sites, and in the future,
the EPA and others may assert claims against the Company with respect to such
sites.  The Company believes that all such activities and claims, if any, will
be subject to the agreement.

As a result of factors such as changes in federal and state regulations, the
application and effectiveness of remedial actions, the difficulty in assessing
the extent of environmental contamination, and the allocation of costs among
potentially

                                     I-14
<PAGE>
 
responsible parties, actual costs to be incurred for environmental cleanup may
vary from previous estimates.  Subject to the uncertainties inherent in
evaluating environmental exposures, and based on information presently
available, including the Company's historical remediation experience, currently
enacted environmental laws and regulations, and existing remediation technology,
the Company believes that if additional costs are incurred in excess of the
accrued amounts, such costs are not expected to have a material adverse effect
on the Company's financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

Year 2000 Compliance

The Company is engaged in a comprehensive project to modify its systems for year
2000 compliance.  The Company's approach to year 2000 compliance activities may
be broken down into five general areas: inventory, analysis/planning,
fixing/testing, certification, and contingency plans.

As of September 30, 1998, the Company has completed substantially all of the
inventory and a majority of the analysis/planning phases of the project which
involved obtaining systems inventories including embedded technology, performing
on-site audits at operating locations, contacting vendors to obtain compliant
releases of hardware and software, and establishing project plans and associated
implementation schedules. Testing and repair/modification work and surveys of
major suppliers to determine their level of compliance began during the second
quarter of 1998 and will continue through the first quarter of 1999.
Certifications will also begin during the fourth quarter of 1998, with
completion expected in the first quarter of 1999. Business continuity and
contingency plans include, among other things, manual equipment operations and
scheduling, are currently being developed to address high risk areas as they are
identified and should be in place by the end of 1999. Failure by the Company or
its vendors and customers to achieve year 2000 compliance could result in
disruption of the Company's operations, possibly impacting the Company's ability
to obtain raw materials, produce products, or collect revenues. However, the
Company believes that its compliance efforts will be successful and that
significant disruptions of the Company's operations are unlikely to develop.

The Company has spent approximately $555,000 through the third quarter of 1998
on year 2000 projects and activities. The estimated total costs for year 2000
related projects and activities, expected to be completed in 1999, are not
expected to exceed $5 million. All expenditures will be funded through
operations and will directly impact the reported level of future income.
However, if additional costs are incurred in excess of the above estimates, such
costs are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations. The above discussion
regarding costs, risks and estimated completion dates for year 2000 compliance
activities is based on estimates given information that is currently available,
and is subject to change.

Introduction of the Euro

On January 1, 1999, eleven countries of the European Union will establish a new
single European currency (the "Euro").  The Euro will become a currency in its
own right and will completely replace the currencies of the participating
countries by 2002.  The conversion may affect, among other things, cross-border
competition among member countries, product pricing, exchange rate risk and
derivatives exposure, and information technology and systems.  The Company's
European businesses, primarily in the Engineered Products segment, accounted for
approximately 12 percent of total sales for the nine months ended September 30,
1998. The Company believes it is prepared for the introduction of the Euro on
January 1, 1999 and the conversion is not expected to have material adverse
effects on the Company's financial condition, liquidity or results of
operations.

Pending Acquisitions

In November 1998, the Company announced an agreement to acquire the
Spunbond/Monofilament operations of the Hoechst Group's polyester business which
will be included in the Company's Engineered Products segment.  The acquisition,
with 1997 sales totaling approximately $250 million, has received regulatory

                                     I-15
<PAGE>
 
approvals and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 1998. In October
1998, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase the perlite roofing
insulation manufacturing assets from Building Materials Corporation of America.
The transaction, which has received regulatory approval, is also expected to
close in the fourth quarter of 1998.


The Company believes that its current cash position, funds available under
credit facilities, and cash generated from operations will enable it to satisfy
its debt service requirements, its ongoing capital expansion program and its
other ongoing operating costs.  However, the Company may need to access capital
markets to pay the principal of its credit facilities, or in connection with
possible significant future acquisitions.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements of the Company
contained in this report concerning matters that are not historical facts,
including, without limitation, statements concerning the (i) expected continued
benefits from the integration of acquisitions and capacity expansions, (ii)
effect on the building insulation business resulting from 1998 U.S. housing
starts, (iii) possible earnings decline from the economic slow down in Eastern
Europe and Asia in the Engineered Products segment, (iv) Company's expectations
concerning interest rate and equity market declines and their effect on 1999
pension expense (income) and operating income, (v) Company's expectations
concerning levels of capital spending and funding of current operations, debt
service and future acquisitions, (vi) Company's expectations as to contingencies
related to taxes, phenolic roofing insulation and environmental liabilities,
(vii) Company's estimates on the ability of the Company and its vendors and
customers to replace, modify or upgrade computer systems in ways that adequately
address the year 2000 issue, and (viii) Company's expectations concerning the
Euro conversion, constitute such forward-looking statements. See "Liquidity and
Capital Resources."

Forward-looking statements of the Company are subject to risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in
such statements.  Important factors relating to such risks and uncertainties are
set forth below.
 
Factors that could affect the forward-looking statements generally are related
to demand for the Company's products, overall capacity levels in the industry
and the overall competitive environment in which the Company operates.  These
factors are discussed in detail in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" incorporated in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.

Factors that could affect the Company's expected levels of capital spending and
funding of current operations, debt service and dividends, include, without
limitation, the general factors noted above, the level of cash flow generated by
the Company and the ability of the Company to otherwise fund such commitments,
which in turn could be affected by general U.S. and international economic

address the year 2000 issue include the ability to identify and correct all
relevant systems, unanticipated difficulties or delays in the implementation of

                             EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
                             --------------------


     EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT dated as of August 1, 1998 (the "Agreement") by and
between JOHNS MANVILLE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and
JOHN J. KLOCKO, III (the "Executive").

     WHEREAS the Company desires to employ Executive and to enter into an
agreement embodying terms of such employment (the "Agreement"); and

     WHEREAS Executive desires to accept such employment and to enter into such
an Agreement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants
contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties
agree as follows:

     1.   Term of Employment.  The Executive's period of employment hereunder
          ------------------                            
shall extend from August 1, 1998 through April 10, 2001; provided, however, that
commencing April 10, 1999 and each April 10 thereafter if this Agreement is
still in effect, the period of employment shall automatically be extended for
one additional year unless, not later than March 1 of such year, the Company or
the Executive has given written notice to the other party that such term of
employment shall not be so extended. The period of Executive's employment
hereunder, including any extension or extensions pursuant to the foregoing
sentence, is referred to hereafter as the "Employment Term."
<PAGE>
 
     2.   Position.  Executive shall serve as Senior Vice President and General
          --------                                       
Counsel of the Company. Executive shall devote substantially all of his business
time and energies to the business of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Executive may (a) continue to serve on the board of directors of any business
corporation on which he is serving as of the date of this Agreement (as shown on
Schedule A), (b) serve on the boards of directors or committees of non-profit
organizations and (c) with the prior approval of the Chief Executive Officer of
the Company or of the Board, serve on the boards of directors of other business
corporations, provided that in the Company's sole reasonable discretion none of
the foregoing activities materially interferes with the performance of
Executive's duties hereunder.

     3.   Base Salary.  Company shall pay Executive a base salary at the rate
          -----------                                
of not less than $225,000 per year, as the same may from time to time be
increased at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company (the
"Board") or, prior to a Change in Control, decreased in the event of across the
board salary reductions within the corporate staff group or the business
division in which Executive is employed, whichever is applicable ("Base
Salary").

     4.   Incentive Compensation. Executive shall participate in the JM
          ----------------------                  
executive incentive compensation plans, as in effect from time to time during
the Employment Term, for which his level of employment makes him eligible.
(References herein to "JM executive incentive compensation plans" whether annual
or long-term, shall include such plans maintained by the Company from time to
time.) The JM executive incentive  

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
compensation plans in effect on the date hereof in which Executive participates
are listed on Schedule B.

     5.   Employee Benefits.  Executive shall be eligible to participate in such
          -----------------                              
other of the Company's employee benefit plans and to receive such benefits for
which his level of employment makes him eligible, in accordance with the
Company's policies as in effect from time to time during the Employment Term.

     6.   Business Expenses. Necessary and reasonable business expenses incurred
          -----------------

Company policies.

     7.   Termination Prior to a Change in Control.
          ---------------------------------------- 

          (a)  Retirement.  This Agreement shall terminate automatically upon
               ----------                                                    
Executive's Retirement, as defined hereafter. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Retirement" means termination of Executive's employment initiated by Executive,
other than for Good Reason as defined in Section 7(e) or Section 8(e) hereof,
whichever is applicable, whereby Executive is entitled to receive an immediately
payable benefit, including an early retirement benefit, under the Company's
retirement plan generally applicable to its salaried employees or under any
retirement arrangement established with respect to Executive with his consent,
in either case, whether or not Executive commences to receive such benefit at
the time of such termination.  Upon termination of Executive's employment by
reason of Retirement prior to a Change in Control, Executive shall be entitled
to benefits determined in accordance with the Company's retirement, benefit and
insurance programs in effect at such time.

                                       3

          (b)  Death or Disability.
               ------------------- 

               (i)    Disability. Executive's employment hereunder may be
                      ----------
terminated by the Company if Executive becomes physically or mentally
incapacitated and is therefore unable for a period of six (6) consecutive months
to perform his duties (such incapacity is hereinafter referred to as
"Disability"). Any question as to the existence of the Disability of Executive
as to which Executive and the Company cannot agree shall be determined in
writing by a qualified independent physician mutually acceptable to Executive
and the Company. Upon any such termination for Disability prior to a Change in
Control, Executive shall be entitled to receive his Base Salary through the date
on which Executive is first eligible to receive payment of disability benefits
in lieu of salary under the Company's employee benefit plans as then in effect.

               (ii)   Death. Upon termination for death prior to a Change in
                      -----  
Control, Executive shall be entitled to his Base Salary at the rate in effect at
the time of Executive's death through the end of the month in which his death
occurs.

               (iii)  Death or Disability Benefits.  All other benefits to which
                      ----------------------------                              
Executive may be entitled following Executive's termination for death or
Disability prior to a Change in Control shall be determined in accordance with
the plans, policies and practices of the Company.

          (c)  For Cause by the Company; Voluntary Termination by Executive.
               ------------------------------------------------------------  
Executive's employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company for "Cause".
For purposes of this Agreement, prior to a Change in Control, "Cause" shall mean
(i) Executive's willful and continued failure substantially to perform his
duties hereunder (other than as a result of total or partial incapacity due to
physical or mental illness or as 

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
a result of termination by Executive for Good Reason as defined in Section 7(e)
below), (ii) Executive's dishonesty in the performance of his duties hereunder
or (iii) Executive's conviction of a felony under the laws of the United States
or any state thereof. If Executive is terminated for Cause, or if Executive
voluntarily terminates employment hereunder other than for Good Reason, in
either case, prior to a Change in Control, he shall be entitled to receive his
Base Salary through the date of termination. All other benefits, if any, payable
to Executive following such termination of Executive's employment shall be
determined in accordance with the plans, policies and practices of the Company.

          (d)  Without Cause by the Company or with Good Reason by Executive.
               -------------------------------------------------------------
Subject to Section 7(g) below, if during the Employment Term and prior to a 
Change in Control Executive's employment hereunder is terminated by the Company 
without Cause (other than by reason of death or Disability) or by Executive with
"Good Reason" (as defined in Section 7(e) below) asserted in Notice of 
Termination pursuant to Section 13(f) within one year of the event alleged to 
constitute such Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive the 
following benefits:

               (i)   The Company shall pay Executive in equal monthly cash
payments, beginning on the fifth day of the month following such termination and
continuing on the fifth day of each month thereafter for a period of 24 months,
an aggregate amount equal to two times Executive's Base Salary in effect at the
time of such termination or, in the event of termination by Executive on account
of an event described in Section 7(e)(iv) below, the Base Salary as in effect
prior to the reduction or reductions referred to therein plus the bonus
Executive would have earned in respect of 

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
the year of termination under the Company's annual incentive compensation plan,
if any, in effect at the date of termination or, in the event of a termination
by Executive by reason of an event described in Section 7(e)(v), the plan in
effect prior to the elimination referred to therein, determined as if Executive
had been employed by the Company for the full year and without regard to any
right reserved by the Company to decrease or eliminate such bonus, and assuming
actual performance had equaled 100% of the performance objective established for
such year pursuant to the terms of such plan. In the event of a Change in
Control following such termination, all remaining amounts then payable pursuant
to this Section 7(d)(i) shall be paid in a lump sum in cash within 15 days of
the date of the event giving rise to the Change in Control.

               (ii)  For a 24-month period after such termination, the Company
shall cause Executive to be provided with life, accident, medical, dental and
prescription insurance benefits substantially similar to, and on the same terms
as, those benefits elected and received by Executive under the Company's "Flex
Benefit" program immediately prior to such termination; provided that, Executive
shall be charged an amount equal to any monthly payroll deduction charged for
similar benefits to executives in positions similar to that which Executive held
before his termination; and provided further that, if Executive receives medical
benefits under the Company's Retiree Comprehensive Health Care Plan and post-
retirement life insurance benefits (collectively, "Retiree Medical and Life
Insurance Benefits"), at any time during the 24-month period referred to above,
once such benefits begin Executive shall be entitled only to Retiree Medical and
Life Insurance Benefits.

<PAGE>
 
               (iii)  For a period of 24 months after such termination, the
Company shall provide or cause Executive to be provided with the perquisites
listed on Schedule C, attached hereto, as may be amended by the Company from
time to time without Executive's consent prior to such termination (provided
that nothing herein shall be deemed to permit such an amendment without
Executive's consent following a Change in Control), on the same terms and
conditions on which such perquisites were provided prior to Executive's
termination.

               (iv)   In addition to all other amounts payable to Executive
under this Section 7(d), Executive shall be entitled to receive all benefits
payable to Executive under any other plan, policy or agreement relating to
retirement or other benefits in accordance with the terms of such plans,
policies or agreements; provided, however that, amounts paid pursuant to this
Section 7(d) shall be in lieu of any payments under any Company separation
policy.

               (v)    The Company shall provide Executive with outplacement
services from the firm of Executive's choice at a cost to the Company not to
exceed the lesser of (A) 20% of Executive's Base Salary in effect at the time of
Executive's termination of employment with the Company or (B) $25,000.

          (e) Good Reason.  For purposes of this Agreement, prior to a Change
              -----------                       
in Control, "Good Reason" shall mean:

               (i)    a material reduction in Executive's responsibilities,
authorities or duties, all as contemplated by Section 2 hereof; provided,
however, that such reduction by reason of a termination for Cause or Disability
shall not constitute Good Reason;

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
               (ii)   Executive's job is eliminated other than by reason of
promotion or termination for Cause or Disability.

               (iii)  the Company fails to pay Executive any amount otherwise
vested and due hereunder or under any plan or policy of the Company;

               (iv)   a reduction in Executive's Base Salary except in the event
of an across the board salary reduction within the corporate staff group or the
business division in which Executive is employed, whichever is applicable;

               (v)    a reduction in Executive's aggregate level of benefits
under the Company's pension, life insurance, medical, health and accident,
disability, deferred compensation or savings or similar plans, except in the
event of an across the board reduction in such benefits within the corporate
staff group or the business division in which Executive is employed, whichever
is applicable;

               (vi)   the elimination of an annual incentive compensation plan
or a material reduction in such a plan not applicable to other executives of the
Company; or

               (vii)  Executive's office is relocated outside of a 50-mile
radius of Denver, Colorado without his written consent.

          If Executive provides to the Company a Notice of Termination, as
defined in Section 13(f), in connection with an event described in clauses (i)
through (vii) of this Section 7(e), the Company shall have ten (10) business
days from the date of receipt of such notice to effect a cure of the event
described therein, and upon cure thereof by the Company to Executive's
reasonable satisfaction, such event shall no longer constitute Good Reason for
purposes of this Agreement.

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
          (f)  Mitigation. In the event of termination of Executive's employment
               ----------                                                    
hereunder by the Company without Cause or by Executive with Good Reason prior to
a Change in Control, benefits otherwise receivable by Executive pursuant to
subsection 7(d)(ii) shall be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are
received by Executive during the 24-month period following such termination.
Executive shall report to the Company any such benefits actually received by
Executive.

          (g)  Performance Related Termination.  Notwithstanding any other
               -------------------------------                            
provision of this Agreement, in the event (i) Executive's employment hereunder
is terminated by the Company without Cause prior to a Change in Control pursuant
to which payments are payable pursuant to Section 7(d) and (ii) such termination
is the result of a Performance Related Termination Event (as defined in Section
7(h) below), then (x) the benefits and perquisites provided pursuant to Sections
7(d)(ii) and 7(d)(iii) shall be provided for a 12-month period after such
termination in lieu of a 24-month period, (y) the benefits and services provided
pursuant to Sections 7(d)(iv) and 7(d)(v) shall remain unchanged and (z) the
amount payable pursuant to Section 7(d)(i) shall be reduced to the amount
provided in Section 7(g)(i) below:

               (i)    The Company shall pay Executive at the time of such
termination in a lump sum a cash amount equal to one times his Base Salary in
effect at the time of such termination plus a fraction of the annual bonus which
(absent such termination and without regard to any right reserved by the Company
to decrease or eliminate such bonus) Executive would have earned in respect of
the year of termination under the JM annual incentive compensation plan, if any,
in effect at the date of termination, assuming actual performance had equaled
100% of the

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
performance objective established for such year pursuant to the terms of such
plan, the numerator of which fraction is the number of days in such year during
which the Executive was employed by the Company and the denominator of which is
365.

          (h) Performance Related Termination Event.  For purposes of the
              -------------------------------------                      
foregoing, "Performance Related Termination Event" shall mean Executive's
failure to meet in any material respect the expectations of the Company which
have been communicated to Executive and which are reasonable and material in
light of Executive's position after a written notice specifying this Section and
identifying such failure is delivered to Executive and Executive shall have
failed during the 60-day period following such written demand to have corrected
such failure (other than as a result of total or partial incapacity due to
physical or mental illness or as a result of termination by Executive for Good
Reason).

     8.   Termination Following a Change in Control.
          ----------------------------------------- 

          (a) Retirement.  This Agreement shall terminate automatically upon
              ----------                                                    
Executive's Retirement.  Upon a termination of Executive's employment by reason
of Retirement following a Change in Control, Executive shall be entitled to
benefits determined in accordance with the Company's retirement, benefit and
insurance programs in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control or, if
more generous, such programs in effect at the time of such Retirement.
          
          (b) Death or Disability.
              ------------------- 

              (i) Disability. Executive's employment hereunder may be terminated
                  ----------

following a
                                       10
<PAGE>
 
Change in Control, Executive shall be entitled to receive his Base Salary for a
two-year period ending on the second anniversary of Executive's date of
termination. Such Base Salary shall be paid in equal monthly installments and
shall be reduced by any amounts received as disability benefits in lieu of
salary under the Company's employee benefit plans.

              (ii)   Death.  Upon termination for death following a Change in 
                     -----  
Control, Executive shall be entitled to (x) his Base Salary at the rate in
effect at the time of Executive's death through the end of the month in which
his death occurs and (y) if and to the extent the death benefits provided
Executive by the Company are less than would have been paid immediately prior to
a Change in Control, a lump sum payment of cash in an amount equal to the value
of such shortfall. Any such lump sum payment shall be made within ten (10)
business days following Executive's death.

              (iii)  Death or Disability Benefits.  All other benefits to which
                     ----------------------------                              
Executive may be entitled upon Executive's termination for death or Disability
following a Change in Control shall be determined in accordance with the plans,
policies and practices of the Company in effect immediately prior to the Change
in Control or, if more generous, such plans, policies and practices as in effect
at any time following the Change in Control; provided that, nothing in this
Section 8(b)(iii) shall be interpreted so as to result in the duplication of the
benefits provided under Section 8(b)(i) or (ii).

          (c) For Cause by the Company; Voluntary Termination by Executive.  For
              ------------------------------------------------------------      
purposes of this Agreement, following a Change in Control, "Cause" shall mean
(i) Executive's willful and continued failure substantially to perform his
duties hereunder (other than as a result of total or partial incapacity due to
physical or mental illness or as 

                                       11
<PAGE>
 
a result of termination by Executive for Good Reason as defined in Section 8(e)
below) after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to
Executive personally and Executive shall have failed during the 60-day period
following such written demand to have corrected such failure, (ii) Executive's
dishonesty in the performance of his duties hereunder or (iii) Executive's
conviction of a felony under the laws of the United States or any state thereof.
For purposes of this Section 8(c) no act or failure to act on Executive's part
shall be deemed willful unless done or omitted to be done by Executive not in
good faith and without reasonable belief that Executive's action or omission was
in the best interest of the Company.

          If Executive is terminated for Cause, or if Executive voluntarily
terminates his employment with the Company other than for Good Reason, in either
case, following a Change in Control, he shall be entitled to receive his Base
Salary through the date of termination.  All other benefits, if any, payable to
Executive following such termination of Executive's employment shall be
determined in accordance with the plans, policies and practices of the Company.

          (d) Without Cause by the Company or With Good Reason by Executive.  If
              -------------------------------------------------------------     
during the Employment Term Executive's employment hereunder is terminated by the
Company following a Change in Control without Cause (other than by reason of
death or Disability) or by Executive with "Good Reason" (which following a
Change in Control shall have the meaning set forth in Section 8(e) below)
asserted in a Notice of Termination pursuant to Section 13(f) within two years
of the event alleged to constitute such Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled
to receive the following benefits:

                                       12
<PAGE>
 
              (i)    The Company shall pay Executive at the time of termination
in a lump sum a cash amount equal to three times the sum of (A) Executive's Base
Salary in effect at the time of such termination or, in the event of termination
by Executive by reason of an event described in Section 8(e)(iv) below, the Base
Salary as in effect prior to the reduction or reductions referred to therein
plus (B) the bonus Executive would have earned in respect of the year of
termination under the JM annual executive incentive compensation plan, if any,
in effect at the date of termination or, in the event of a termination by
Executive by reason of an event described in Section 8(e)(v) below, the plan in
effect immediately prior to the reduction or reductions referred to therein,
determined as if Executive had been employed by the Company for the full year
and without regard to any right reserved by the Company to decrease or eliminate
such bonus, and assuming actual performance had equaled 100% of the performance
objective established for such year pursuant to the terms of such plan.

              (ii)   The Company shall pay Executive in a lump sum a cash amount
equal to a fraction of the annual bonus which (absent such termination and
without regard to any right reserved by the Company to decrease or eliminate
such bonus) Executive would have earned with respect to the year of termination
under the JM annual executive incentive compensation plan, if any, in effect at
the date of termination or, in the event of a termination by Executive by reason
of an event described in Section 8(e)(v), the plan in effect prior to the
reduction or reductions referred to therein, assuming actual performance had
equaled 100% of the performance objective established for such year pursuant to
the terms of such plan, the numerator of which fraction is the number of days in
such year during which the

                                       13
<PAGE>
 
Executive was employed by the Company and the denominator of which is 365. Such
payment shall be made at the time of Executive's termination.

              (iii)  [Reserved.]

              (iv)   Executive shall receive credit under the Supplemental Plan
for Participants in the THE COMPANY'S Salaried Retirement Plan for two
additional years of service for purposes of both vesting and accrual of
benefits.

              (v)    For a 36-month period following Executive's termination,
the Company shall pay Executive in monthly installments the sum of the monthly
costs to Executive of purchasing life, accident, medical, dental and
prescription insurance benefits substantially similar to such benefits elected
and received by Executive under the Company's "Flex Benefit" program immediately
prior to Executive's termination or, if more generous, immediately prior to the
Change in Control ("Continued Benefits") less the monthly payroll deduction, if
any, charged to Executive immediately prior to Executive's termination, or, if
applicable, immediately prior to the Change in Control, for any of such
Continued Benefits; notwithstanding the foregoing, if Executive begins to
receive Retiree Medical and Life Insurance Benefits at any time during the 36-
month period referred to above, once such benefits begin, the monthly payment
due Executive under the preceding clause shall equal the monthly costs to
Executive of purchasing Continued Benefits not provided by the Company to
Executive as Retiree Medical and Life Insurance Benefits.

              (vi)   For a 24-month period after such termination, the Company
shall provide or cause Executive to be provided with the perquisites listed on
Schedule C, attached hereto (which the Company may amend from time to time prior
to a Change

                                       14
<PAGE>
 
in Control, without Executive's consent), on the same terms and conditions on
which such perquisites were provided at the time of Executive's termination or,
if more generous, immediately prior to such termination.

              (vii)  In addition to all other amounts payable to Executive under
this Section 8(d), Executive shall be entitled to receive all benefits payable
to Executive under any other plan, policy or agreement relating to retirement or
other benefits, in accordance with the terms of such plans, policies or
agreements; provided, however that, amounts paid pursuant to this Section 8(d)
shall be in lieu of any payments under any Company separation policy.

              (viii) The Company shall provide Executive with outplacement
services from the firm of Executive's choice at a cost to the Company not to
exceed 20% of Executive's Base Salary in effect at the time of such termination
or, in the event of termination by Executive by reason of an event described in
Section 8(e)(iv) below, the Base Salary as in effect prior to the reduction or
reductions referred to therein. 

          (e) Good Reason Following a Change in Control.  For purposes of this
              -----------------------------------------                       
Agreement, following a Change in Control, "Good Reason" shall mean:

              (i)    a material adverse change in the nature or scope of
Executive's responsibilities, authorities, duties and/or position (including by
reason of a substantial reduction in the size of the Company or other
substantial change in the character or scope of the Company's operations);

              (ii)   Executive no longer serves in the position described in
Section 2, other than by reason of a promotion or a termination for Cause or
Disability;

                                       15
<PAGE>
 
              (iii)  the Company fails to pay Executive any amounts otherwise
vested and due hereunder or under any plan or policy of the Company;

              (iv)   a reduction in Executive's Base Salary in effect
immediately prior to the Change in Control or as the same may be increased from
time to time; 

              (v)    a reduction in Executive's incentive compensation
opportunity, as defined below, under the JM executive incentive compensation
plans as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control or as the same may
be increased from time to time (absent, in the case of any such reduction
relative to Executive's annual bonus, a corresponding increase in his Base
Salary);

              (vi)   the failure of the Company, to continue to provide
Executive with benefits and perquisites which are substantially similar in the
aggregate to those enjoyed by Executive under the Company's pension, life
insurance, medical, health and accident, disability, deferred compensation or
savings or similar plans and fringe benefit programs (including vacation) in
which Executive was participating immediately prior to the Change in Control; or
the failure by the Company to continue to provide Executive with directors' or
officers' insurance, as applicable, at the level maintained immediately prior to
the Change in Control;

              (vii)  the Executive's office is relocated outside of a 50-mile
radius of Denver, Colorado without his written consent;

              (viii) the failure of the Company to obtain an agreement from any
successor to assume and agree to perform this Agreement, as contemplated in
Section 13(e) hereof; or

                                       16
<PAGE>
 
              (ix)   any purported termination of Executive's employment by the
Company which is not effected pursuant to a Notice of Termination satisfying the
requirements of Section 13(f) and, if applicable, following the written demand
described in Section 8(c) and the relevant cure period.

          If Executive provides a Notice of Termination, as defined in Section
13(f), in connection with an event described in clauses (i) through (vii) of
this Section 8(e), to the Company, the Company shall have ten (10) business days
from the date of receipt of such notice to effect a cure of the event described
therein, and upon cure thereof by the Company to Executive's reasonable
satisfaction, such event shall no longer constitute Good Reason for purposes of
this Agreement.

          (f) Reduction in Incentive Compensation Opportunity.  For purposes of
              -----------------------------------------------                  
this Agreement, a "reduction in Executive's incentive compensation opportunity"
under the JM executive incentive compensation plans shall include:

              (i)    the failure to maintain both an annual and a long-term
incentive plan;

              (ii)   any reduction or elimination by the Company of Executive's
annual or long-term incentive compensation pursuant to any reserved right under
any such plan to decrease or eliminate such bonus or award;

              (iii)  any reduction in Executive's participation level under any
such plan; and

              (iv)   any adverse change in the payout schedule or its equivalent
or in the manner of assessing actual performance under any such plan and/or any
extraordinary change in the applicable performance criteria thereunder.

          (g) Change in Control.  For purposes of this Agreement, the phrase
              -----------------                                             
"Change in Control" shall mean the following and shall be deemed to have
occurred if any of the following events shall have occurred:

              (i)    any Person (as defined below) (other than the Company, any
trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under any employee benefit plan of
the Company, or any company owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders
of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the
common stock of the Company) becomes the Beneficial Owner (as defined below)
(except that a Person shall be deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of all shares
that any such Person has the right to acquire pursuant to any agreement or
arrangement or upon exercise of conversion rights, warrants or options or
otherwise, without regard to the sixty day period referred to in Rule 13d-3
under the Exchange Act (as defined below)), directly or indirectly, of
securities of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (as defined below),
representing 30 percent or more of the combined voting power of the Company's or
such subsidiary's then outstanding securities; provided, however, that such
event shall not constitute a Change in Control unless or until the percentage of
such securities owned beneficially, directly or indirectly, by such Person is
equal to or more than all such securities owned beneficially, directly or
indirectly, by Manville Personal Injury Settlement Trust (the "Trust");

              (ii)   during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who
at the beginning of such period constitute the Board, and any new director
(other than a director designated by a person who has entered into an agreement
with the Company to effect a transaction described in clause (i), (iii), or (iv)
of this paragraph) whose

                                       18
<PAGE>
 
election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders
was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in
office who either were directors at the beginning of the two-year period or
whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved but
excluding for this purpose any such new director whose initial assumption of
office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest (as
such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the
Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents
by or on behalf of an individual, corporation, partnership, group, associate or
other entity or Person other than the Board, cease for any reason to constitute
at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that such event shall not
constitute a Change in Control unless or until the percentage of voting
securities of the Company owned beneficially, directly or indirectly, by the
Trust is less than 50 percent of all such outstanding securities;

               (iii) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the
Company or any subsidiary owning directly or indirectly all or substantially all
of the consolidated assets of the Company (a "Significant Subsidiary") with any
other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in
the voting securities of the Company or a Significant Subsidiary outstanding
immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining
outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving or
resulting entity) more than 50 percent of the combined voting power of the
surviving or resulting entity outstanding immediately after such merger or
consolidation;

                                       19
<PAGE>
 
               (iv)  the stockholders of the Company or any affiliate approve a
plan or agreement for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the
consolidated assets of the Company (other than such a sale or disposition
immediately after which such assets will be owned directly or indirectly by the
stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership of the common stock of the Company immediately prior to such sale or
disposition) in which case the Board shall determine the effective date of the
Change in Control resulting therefrom; or

               (v)   any other event occurs which the Board determines, in its
discretion, would materially alter the structure of the Company or its
ownership.
               (vi)  Defined terms.

                     (A)  "Beneficial Owner" shall have the meaning ascribed to
such term in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and any successor to such Rule.

                     (B)  "Exchange Act" means the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended from time to time, including rules thereunder and successor
provisions and rules thereto.

                     (C)  "Person" shall have the meaning ascribed to such term
in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act and used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)
thereof, and shall include a "group" as defined in Section 13(d) thereof.

     9.   Golden Parachute Tax.
          -------------------- 

          (a)  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event
that it is determined that any payment or distribution by the Company to or for
Executive's benefit, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable
pursuant to the terms hereof or otherwise, other than any payment pursuant to
this Section 9(a) (a

                                       20
<PAGE>
 
"Payment"), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") or any interest or
penalties with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any
such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the
"Excise Tax"), then Executive shall be entitled to receive, within 15 days
following the determination described in Section 9(b) below, an additional
payment ("Excise Tax Adjustment Payment") in an amount such that after payment
by Executive of all applicable Federal, state and local taxes (computed at the
maximum marginal rates and including any interest or penalties imposed with
respect to such taxes), including any Excise Tax, imposed upon the Excise Tax
Adjustment Payment, Executive shall retain an amount of the Excise Tax
Adjustment Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the payments.

          (b)  All determinations required to be made under this Section 9,
including whether an Excise Tax Adjustment Payment is required and the amount of
such Excise Tax Adjustment Payment, shall be made by Coopers & Lybrand, L.L.P.
or such accounting firm as the Company may designate prior to a Change of
Control, which shall provide to the Company and Executive detailed supporting
calculations within 15 business days of the date of Executive's termination of
Employment. Except as hereinafter provided, any determination by Coopers &
Lybrand, L.L.P. or such other accounting firm as the Company may designate prior
to a Change of Control shall be binding upon the Company and Executive. As a
result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the
time of the initial determination hereunder, it is possible that (x) Excise Tax
Adjustment Payments which should have been made will not have been made by the
Company ("Underpayment"), or (y) certain

                                       21
<PAGE>
 
Excise Tax Adjustment Payments will have been made which should not have been
made ("Overpayment"), consistent with the calculations required to be made
hereunder. In the event of an Underpayment, the Company shall promptly determine
the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall
be promptly paid by the Company to or for Executive's benefit. In the event that
Executive discovers that an Overpayment shall have occurred, the amount thereof
shall be promptly repaid to the Employer.

     10.  Indemnification. The Company will indemnify Executive (and his heirs,
          --------------- 
legal representatives or other successors) to the fullest extent permitted
(including payment of expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding)
by the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company, as in effect at
the time of the subject act or omission, or by the Certificate of Incorporation
and By-Laws of the Company, as in effect at such time or on the effective date
of this Agreement, or by the terms of any indemnification agreement between the
Company and Executive, whichever affords or afforded greatest protection to
Executive, and Executive shall be entitled to the protection of any insurance
policies the Company may elect to maintain generally for the benefit of its
directors and officers (and to the extent the Company maintains such an
insurance policy or policies, Executive shall be covered by such policy or
policies, in accordance with its or their terms, to the maximum extent of the
coverage available for any Company officer or director), against all costs,
charges and expenses whatsoever incurred or sustained by him or his legal
representatives at the time such costs, charges and expenses are incurred or
sustained, in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which he (or his
legal representatives or other successors) may be made

                                       22
<PAGE>
 
a party by reason of his being or having been a director, officer or employee of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or his serving or having served any
other enterprise as a director, officer or employee at the request of the
Company.

     11.  Legal Fees. In the event of a dispute between Executive and the
          ----------
Company with respect to any of Executive's rights under this Agreement, the
Company shall reimburse Executive for any and all legal fees and related
expenses incurred by him in connection with enforcing such rights, at the time
such fees and related expenses are incurred; provided that, if Executive's claim
is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been frivolous, Executive
shall reimburse the Company for all amounts paid by it under this Section.

     12.  Confidentiality; Specific Performance.
          ------------------------------------- 

          Executive will not at any time (whether during or after his employment
with the Company) disclose or use for his own benefit or purposes, or the
benefit or purposes of any other person, firm, partnership, joint venture,
association, corporation or other business organization, entity or enterprise
other than the Company and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, any Trade
Secrets of the Company without first obtaining the written consent of the
Company.

          Executive will not at any time during his employment with the Company
or for a period of two years after termination of his employment, disclose or
use for his own benefit or purposes or the benefit or purposes, of any other
person, firm, partnership, joint venture, association, corporation or other
business organization, entity or enterprise other than the Company and any of
its subsidiaries or affiliates, any Confidential Information of the Company
which is disclosed to or learned by Employee 

                                       23
<PAGE>
 
during employment with the Company. Employee acknowledges that Confidential
Information and materials developed by Employee, or Confidential Information and
materials received by the Company in confidence from third parties, are also
included within the meaning of this Section.

          As used herein "Trade Secret" means the whole or any portion or phrase
of any technical information, design, process, procedure, formula or improvement
known or used by the Company that is valuable and secret (in the sense that it
is not generally known to competitors of the Company). To the extent consistent
with the foregoing, Trade Secrets include (without limitation) the specialized
information and technology that provide the Company with an advantage over
competitors or potential competitors in its industry.

          As used herein "Confidential Information" means any data or
information known by the Company related to the business of the Company, other
than Trade Secrets, that is of competitive significance to the Company and not
generally known by the public. To the extent consistent with the foregoing,
"Confidential Information" includes (without limitation): cost data (such as
labor or material costs pertaining to the products or services) of the Company;
data relating to efficiency of the Company's operations; the identity and
location of vendors and the terms of sale (including prices) negotiated with
such vendors; data relating to sales -- by customer, by location, by product
category, by sales price, or by end-use application; customer lists; financial
information hat has not been released to the public; future business plans,
marketing strategies, or advertising campaigns; and personnel files.

          Executive agrees that upon termination of his employment with the
Company for any reason, he will return to the Company immediately all memoranda,
books, papers, plans, information, letters and other data, and all copies
thereof or therefrom, in any way relating to the business of the Company and its
affiliates, except that he may retain personal notes, notebooks and diaries.
Executive further agrees that he will not retain or use for his account at any
time any trade names, trademark or other proprietary business designation used
or owned in connection with the business of the Company or its affiliates.

          Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company's remedies at law
for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Section would
be inadequate and, in recognition of this fact, Executive agrees that, in the
event of such a breach or threatened breach, in addition to any remedies at law,
the Company, without posting any bond, shall be entitled to obtain equitable
relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order,
temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then
be available.

     13.  Miscellaneous.
          ------------- 

          (a)  Governing Law; Liability of the Executive.  This Agreement shall
               -----------------------------------------                       
be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Colorado.  Executive shall not be subject to liability for breach of this
Agreement by reason of his termination of his employment hereunder.

          (b)  Entire Agreement/Amendments/Effectiveness.  This Agreement shall
               -----------------------------------------                       
supersede any and all existing employment, change-in-control or severance
agreements between Executive and the Company or any of its affiliates and
contains 

                                       25
<PAGE>
 
the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the employment of
Executive by the Company. There are no restrictions, agreements, promises,
warranties, covenants or undertakings between the parties with respect to the
subject matter herein other than those expressly set forth herein. This
Agreement and any amendment hereto shall not be effective unless and until
signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and attested to by the
Secretary of the Company.

          (c)  No Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence
               ---------  
to any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver
of such party's rights or deprive such party of the right thereafter to insist
upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement.

          (d)  Severability. It is expressly understood and agreed that although
               ------------  
Executive and the Company consider the restrictions contained in this Agreement
to be reasonable, if a final judicial determination is made by a tribunal of
competent jurisdiction that the time or territory or any other restriction
contained in this Agreement is unenforceable restriction against Executive, the
provisions of this Agreement shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed
amended to apply to such maximum time and territory and to such maximum extent
as such tribunal may determine or indicate to be enforceable. In the event that
any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be or become invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be
affected thereby.

          (e)  Successors; Binding Agreement.  (i) In the event of a Change in
               -----------------------------                                  
Control, the Company will require the successor to the Company as Executive's

                                       26
<PAGE>
 
employer (whether such succession is direct or indirect, by purchase, merger,
consolidation or otherwise, to any portion of the business and/or assets of the
Company) to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same
manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it
if no such succession had taken place. As used in this Agreement, "Company",
shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business
and/or assets. Prior to a Change in Control, the term "Company", shall also mean
any affiliate of the Company to which Executive may be transferred and the
Company shall cause such successor employer to be considered the "Company" bound
by the terms of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be amended so to
provide. Following a Change in Control, the term "Company" shall not mean any
affiliate of the Company to which Executive may be transferred unless Executive
shall have previously approved of such transfer in writing, in which case the
Company shall cause such successor employer to be considered the "Company" bound
by the terms of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be amended so to
provide.

               (ii)  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by Executive's personal or legal representatives, executors,
administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If
Executive should die while any amount would still be payable to Executive
hereunder if Executive had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise
provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to
Executive's heirs, devisees, legatees or other designees or, if there is no such
designee, to Executive's estate. This Agreement shall not be assignable by
Executive.

Company or by Executive shall not be effective unless communicated by written
Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with paragraph (i)
above.  For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" in the case of
a termination for Cause following a Change in Control shall mean a notice given
within ten (10) business days of the Company's having actual knowledge of the
events giving rise to such termination and in all cases shall mean a notice
which indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon
and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to
provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so
indicated.

               (iii) The date of termination of Executive's employment shall be
the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination, except in the case of (A)
Executive's death, in which case the date of termination of employment shall be
the date of death or (B) Executive's termination for Cause following a Change in
Control, in which case the

                                       28
<PAGE>
 
date of termination shall be ten (10) business days after actual receipt by
Executive of the Notice of Termination; provided that, if within thirty (30)
days after any Notice of Termination following a Change in Control is received,
the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a
dispute exists concerning the termination, the date of termination of
Executive's employment shall be the date on which the dispute is finally
determined, either by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding
arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction (which is not appealable or the time for appeal therefrom
has expired and no appeal has been perfected); and provided further that the
date of termination of Executive's employment shall be extended by a notice of
dispute only if such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such
notice pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence.
Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute, the Company will continue to
pay Executive his full compensation in effect when the notice giving rise to the
dispute was given (including, but not limited to, Base Salary and incentive
compensation) or, if higher, the compensation in effect immediately prior to the
Change in Control, and continue Executive as a participant in all compensation,
benefit (including fringe benefits and perquisites) and insurance plans in which
Executive was participating when the notice giving rise to the dispute was
given, until the dispute is finally resolved in accordance with this paragraph
(iii). Amounts paid under this paragraph are in addition to all other amounts
due under this Agreement and shall not be offset against or reduce any other
amounts due under this Agreement.

          (g) Arbitration.  The parties hereby agree to submit all 
              -----------                                         
controversies, claims and matters of difference in any way related to this
Agreement or the performance or breach of the whole or any part hereof, to
arbitration in Denver, Colorado, according to the rules and practices of the
American Arbitration Association from time to time in force.  If such rules and
practices shall conflict with the Colorado Rules of Civil Procedure or any other
provisions of Colorado law then in force, such Colorado rules and provisions
shall govern.  Arbitration of any such controversy, claim or matter of
difference shall be a condition precedent to any legal action thereon.  This
submission and agreement to arbitration shall be specifically enforceable.

          Awards shall be final and binding on all parties to the extent and in
the manner provided by Colorado law; provided that an arbitration award shall
not be binding on the Company to the extent such award exceeds the maximum
amount the Company would be required to pay Executive pursuant to the express
terms of this Agreement.  All awards may be filed by any party with the Clerk of
the District Court in the County of Denver, Colorado and an appropriate judgment
entered thereon and execution issued therefor.  At the election of any party,
said award may also be filed, and judgment entered thereon and execution issued
therefor, with the clerk of one or more other courts, state or federal, having
jurisdiction over the party against whom such award is rendered or its property.

          (h) Counterparts.  This Agreement may be signed in several
              ------------                                          
counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the
signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

          (i) Non-Disparagement.  Executive and the Company shall each use all
              -----------------                                               
reasonable efforts not to make any statements or take any action that may be
derogatory or disparaging to the reputation of the other or, in the case of the
Executive, to the reputation of any of the Company's affiliates.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude either
party from truthful statements or disclosures that are required by applicable
law or regulation, or from taking any position in prosecuting or defending any
judicial, administrative or arbitration proceeding arising hereunder.

          (j) Cooperation.  Executive agrees that following termination of
              -----------                                                 
Executive's employment with the Company prior to a Change in Control for a
period ending on the earlier to occur of the fifth anniversary of such
termination or a Change in Control, Executive shall make himself reasonably
available to the Company and its legal counsel, taking into consideration
Executive's other obligations, and shall cooperate with the Company in
connection with any litigation, investigation or other proceeding relating to
events occurring during Executive's employment hereunder or facts as to which he
has knowledge;  provided that Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement of
necessary and reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith subject to
provision of receipts therefor and provided further that (i) nothing herein
shall require Executive to make any but truthful statements and (ii) Executive
will not be required so to cooperate to the extent his position is in conflict
with that of the Company.

          (k) Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation.  (i)  Executive acknowledges and
              --------------------------------                                  
recognizes the highly competitive nature of the business of the Company and its

                                       31
<PAGE>
 
affiliates and accordingly hereby agrees, in consideration of the agreements
herein of the Company, that from the date hereof through the termination of
Executive's employment with the Company and, if such termination occurs prior to
a Change in Control, through the two year period following such termination of
Executive's employment, (x) Executive shall not alone, or as a partner, member,
employee, agent, director, stockholder or investor of any corporation or other
business entity or in any other individual or representative capacity, directly
or indirectly, own, manage, operate or control, or participate in the ownership,
management, operation or control of, or work or provide consulting services to
(including, without limitation, without receiving a fee or other compensation),
or lend money to, any business, activity or person which competes with a
business or activity in North America, Europe and Asia in which the Company is
engaged or in which the Company or its affiliates is actively and seriously
considering engaging at the time in question in the case of conduct during such
employment or at the time of Executive's termination of employment in the case
of conduct during such two year period; provided the foregoing shall not
prohibit Executive from directly or indirectly making passive investments of not
more than one percent (1%) of the outstanding equity interests in, or public
debt of, any company or entity listed or traded on a national securities
exchange or an over the counter securities market and (y) Executive shall not,
directly or indirectly, recruit, seek to recruit, or hire any present or former
employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (level 30 or above) until at
least one year has passed from the date of termination of such person's
employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

              (ii)   Executive hereby acknowledges that the business of the
Company and its affiliates is international in scope and that, accordingly, any
geographical limitation on the scope of the foregoing covenant to less than that
specified therein could be meaningless, and that, by reason thereof, Executive
acknowledges that the scope of the foregoing covenant is reasonable and
necessary in order to protect the interests of the Company and its affiliates
sought to be protected hereby.

              (iii)  The parties acknowledge and agree that their respective
remedies for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of Section
13(i), (j) or (k) would be inadequate and, in recognition of this fact, the
parties agree that, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, in
addition to any remedies at law, the aggrieved party, without posting any bond,
shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of specific
performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or
any other equitable remedy which may then be available.
