             $42,852 in 1992, pursuant to retention plans adopted by Crosby and
             The Harris Waste Management Group, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary
             of the Company ("Harris"), to provide key employees an incentive
             to remain with their respective employers until, among other
             things, the sale or liquidation of their employers or Amdura's
             successful reorganization.  Following October 23, 1991, payments
             to each participant in these plans were to be made 50% upon

SEVERANCE PAYMENTS

             The Company has instituted a severance payment policy for certain
members of its senior management (including all of the named executive
officers), for the purpose of providing such individuals with an additional
incentive to remain in the employ of the Company and its subsidiaries.  Under
the policy, eligible personnel would receive a lump-sum payment of one year's
"base salary" (defined as the annual salary at the time of a "Change of
Control" of the Company, as defined below), subject to reduction by the amount
of any other severance pay received from the Company, within 30 days after
"termination" of employment (defined as any substantial change in current
duties, responsibilities, reporting relationships (other than reporting to an
applicable group president), place of employment, or salary and benefits)
without cause, provided that such termination occurs within one year after a
Change in Control of the Company; provided, however, that pursuant to
amendments to the severance policy adopted by the Compensation Committee and
the Board of Directors on March 14, 1995:  (i) Mr. Bach and Mr. Bushley will
each be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to his base salary 90 days
after a Change of Control, so long as he remains continuously employed
throughout such 90-day period (which lump sum payment will not be made if he
resigns prior to the 90th day); (ii) if the employment of Mr. Bach or Mr.
Bushley is terminated without cause prior to the 90th day after a Change of
Control, Mr. Bach will immediately be entitled to receive a payment equal to 1
1/2 times his base salary and will continue to receive his employee benefits
for 18 months thereafter, and Mr.  Bushley will immediately be entitled to
receive a payment equal to two times his base salary and will continue to
receive his employee benefits for 24 months thereafter; (iii) if the employment
of Mr. Bach or Mr. Bushley is terminated without cause between 90 days and two




                                      10

years after a Change of Control, Mr. Bach will immediately be entitled to
receive a payment equal to six months of his then-current salary and will
continue to receive his employee benefits for six months thereafter, and Mr.
Bushley will immediately be entitled to receive a payment equal to 12 months of
his then-current salary and will continue to receive his employee benefits for
12 months thereafter; and (iv) if Mr. Bach or Mr. Bushley remains employed two
years after a Change of Control, then a new severance and/or employee agreement
will be negotiated with that employee on terms no less favorable than those
applicable to similarly situated executives.  For purposes of the policy, a
"Change in Control" is defined as (i) the direct or indirect acquisition in one
or more transactions, other than from the Company, by any individual, entity or
group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act)
of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the
Exchange Act) of a number of Company voting securities in excess of 50% of the
Company's voting securities unless such acquisition either (A) has been
approved by the Board or (B) is made by an individual, entity or group that on
March 1, 1994 beneficially owned 5% or more of the Company's voting securities;
or (ii) the consummation by the Company of a reorganization, merger or
consolidation, unless, following such reorganization, merger or consolidation,
all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the
respective beneficial owners of the outstanding Common Stock and Company voting
securities immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation
beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the
then outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the
then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election
of directors or trustees, as the case may be, of the entity resulting from such
reorganization, merger or consolidation in substantially the same proportion as
their ownership of the outstanding Common Stock and Company voting securities
immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation, as the case
may be.  For purposes of the policy, the purchase of Shares pursuant to the
Offer would constitute a Change in Control.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

             Under the Company's current policies, directors (other than
employees of the Company) are compensated $750 for each Board meeting attended
and $750 for each committee meeting attended other than committee meetings held
in conjunction with Board meetings, in which case the compensation is $500.  In
addition, the Chairman of the Board (so long as he is not an employee of the
Company) receives $12,500 each quarter, and other directors (other than
employees of the Company) receive $3,000 each quarter.   Committee chairpersons
receive an additional $500 for each meeting of a committee at which they
preside.  Directors who are present employees of the Company receive no
additional compensation for their service on the Board or its committees.

             Directors, whether or not employees of the Company, are eligible
to receive discretionary option grants pursuant to the 1992 Stock Option Plan.

INDEMNITY AGREEMENTS

             In general, pursuant to the Company's Bylaws, directors and
officers of the Company and of its subsidiaries are entitled to indemnification
to the fullest extent provided by applicable law.  In this regard, the Company
has entered into Indemnity Agreements with Messrs. Bach, Bushley, Dimond,
Gildea, LeBuhn, Metz, Meyer, Postelwait and Whitridge and Ms. Rudd,
contractually obligating the Company to indemnify such parties with respect to
certain matters to the fullest extent provided by applicable law.  In addition,
the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation contains





                                      11
<PAGE>   13
a provision, as permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, that limits
the personal liability of the Company's directors to the Company and its
stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of their fiduciary duty of care.
The provision does not change the liability of a Company director for a breach
of his duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, acts or omissions
not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, the declaration of dividends in violation of Delaware law or
in respect of any transaction from which a director received an improper
personal benefit.  The Company understands that certain members of the
Company's former principal lending group (the "Former Bank Group") entered into
agreements with Mr. Bach pursuant to which he is provided with certain standby
indemnification rights in addition to the rights he has as a director of the
Company.  The Company also understands that certain members of the Former Bank
Group entered into an agreement for the benefit of Messrs. Bach, Dimond, Meyer
and Whitridge, pursuant to which Former Bank Group members agreed to release
such individuals from liability for, and not to sue such individuals on account
of, any action taken or omitted to be taken by them in their capacities as
directors of the Company, except to the extent any such action or omission is
not in good faith or involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
law.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

             For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Compensation Committee
of the Board of Directors of the Company was responsible for the specific forms
and levels of compensation for the executive and other officers of the Company
and its subsidiaries.

             Executive Compensation Policies Generally

             In carrying out its responsibilities with respect to the
compensation policies of the Company that were in place during 1994, the
Compensation Committee intended to provide compensation to the executive and
other officers of the Company and its subsidiaries at reasonably competitive
levels in order to retain qualified executive officers with a knowledge of the
businesses of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as to provide an
incentive for such executive and other officers based upon the Company's
long-term performance and to enhance stockholder value.

             It was the policy of the Compensation Committee in 1994 to attempt
generally to set executive cash compensation at levels that the Committee
believed to be below the median, and executive non-cash compensation at levels
that the Committee believed to be at or slightly above the median, of the range
of executive compensation at industrial manufacturing companies which the
Committee considered to be comparable to the Company and its subsidiaries in
size and circumstances.  The Compensation Committee's assessment of the range
of executive compensation at comparable companies was based primarily upon
information supplied by a compensation consultant retained by the Committee,
and considered as well the experience of members of the Committee and publicly
available information.

             The Compensation Committee views stock options and stock ownership
by executive officers as essential components of performance-based
compensation, since the value of stock options relates directly to the price of
the Common Stock, and thus ultimately to the Company's performance, thereby
providing executive officers with an additional incentive to focus their and
the Company's performance upon elements of financial strength that contribute
to the enhancement of stockholder value.



                                      12
<PAGE>   14
             The Company does not anticipate that it will be affected in the
near future by Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, which imposes an
annual limit of $1,000,000 per person on the federal income tax deduction for
executive compensation.  If the Company should determine that this limitation
might impact the Company, the Company would likely take the steps necessary to
bring its compensation programs into compliance with Section 162(m) so that the
problem of non-deductibility would be avoided.

             Elements of Executive Compensation

             Compensation of the executive and other officers of the Company
and its subsidiaries in 1994 consisted of the following three elements:  base
salary; cash bonus; and stock option awards under the 1992 Stock Option Plan.

             Base Salary.  In considering the appropriateness of, and increases
in, base salaries for executive and other officers of the Company and its
subsidiaries for 1994, the Compensation Committee utilized salary data obtained
from a variety of sources, including outside consultants and publicly available
information.  It was the primary intention of the Committee that the executive
officers of the Company and its subsidiaries be paid base salaries that are
below the median of base salaries for corresponding executive officers at
industrial manufacturing companies that the Committee considered to be
comparable to the Company and its subsidiaries in size and circumstances.  The
Compensation Committee's assessment of the range of executive compensation at
comparable companies was based primarily upon information supplied by a
compensation consultant retained by the Committee, and considered as well the
experience of members of the Committee and publicly available information.  To
a lesser extent, the Compensation Committee also considered a variety of other
factors in determining base salaries for individual executive officers,
including, among others, in declining order of importance:  (i) the duties and
responsibilities inherent in each individual's position with the Company and
its subsidiaries; (ii) the historical achievements and performance of each
individual in meeting personal and career development goals, as well as
corporate performance goals that are related to the individual's area of
responsibility; (iii) the overall performance of the Company (without reference
to specific, preordained targets); and (iv) the general performance of the
Company relative to comparable companies.  In light of these factors, as well
as of each individual's seniority, executive and other officers of the Company
and its subsidiaries are assigned to base salary grades, and are paid base
salaries that for 1994 were generally below the midpoints of those grades.

             Cash Bonus.  Cash bonuses are intended by the Committee to provide
executive and other officers of the Company's subsidiaries with compensation
tied to the achievement of certain corporate and individual performance goals.
For 1994, cash bonuses were awarded to executive and other officers of Crosby
pursuant to a bonus plan adopted for Crosby by the Company's Board of Directors
in 1992, based upon Crosby's attainment in 1994 of the goals set forth in such
plan.  In 1992, the Board also adopted a separate bonus plan for Harris; while
certain of the specific goals set forth in the Harris bonus plan were not
attained in 1994, the Compensation Committee nonetheless designated a limited
pool of funds at year-end 1994 for the payment of non-plan bonuses to certain
of the executive and other officers of Harris, as well as to the Chief
Financial Officer and certain other non-executive personnel of Amdura (for
which no formal bonus plan has been established), in recognition of individual
performance and achievement by such recipients during 1994.




                                      13
<PAGE>   15
             Under the formal bonus plans adopted by the Board in 1992 for
Crosby and Harris, performance goals for a particular year may vary between
Crosby and Harris based on the achievement of certain predetermined corporate
goals for that year.  In establishing the overall levels of cash bonus to be
paid, both Crosby and Harris assign roughly one-third weight to the attainment
of certain threshold, target and maximum levels of operating income; one-fourth
weight to similar levels of cash flow; and one-fifth weight to levels of
reduction in average days of inventory on hand.  In addition, Crosby assigns
one-fourth weight each to goals related to gross margin on new products and to
sales presentations made to distributors and end-users of Crosby's products,
while Harris assigns one-tenth weight to goals concerning gross margin and the
level of direct labor as a proportion of its total work-force.  Once the
overall bonus level at each subsidiary has been established in accordance with
the foregoing weighing, the actual amount of each individual bonus is
determined based upon the individual's base salary grade.

             Stock Options.  The grant of stock options is intended to provide
long-term, performance-based incentive compensation to option recipients.
Options are also intended to provide option recipients with an incentive to
increase and promote stockholder value by directly allying the interests of
management with the market value of the Company's stock.

             Each option is granted with an exercise price of 100% of the fair
market value on the date of grant of the shares of stock issuable upon exercise
of the option, and has a ten-year term.  Options typically vest over a
four-year period.

             The Stock Option Committee of the Company's Board of Directors
specifically reviews and acts upon recommendations made by the Chief Executive
Officer regarding the stock option awards to be made to the Company's executive
officers.  In 1994 the Stock Option Committee made stock option grants to
certain executive officers.  See "Executive Compensation - Stock Options."
Stock option grants in 1994 were generally made by the Stock Option Committee
in the context of the Company's 1993 and 1994 performance, the responsibility
level and performance of the executive, levels of prior grants of stock
options, if any, to the particular executive, and historical and current grants
to all other past and current option holders, taking into account the Company's
preference for long-term stock performance based compensation.  There is no
formula on which the grants to executive officers are based, nor is any one
factor given any specific weight.  The Stock Option Committee places particular
emphasis on seeking to assure that each executive officer's total option
holdings provide an appropriate balance between long-term incentives and the
other components of each executive's compensation.

             Compensation of Chief Executive Officer

             Prior to his resignation effective November 30, 1994, the
compensation for William F. Andrews, Chairman, President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, was determined through a process similar to the
policies and procedures discussed above for executive officers in general.  The
Compensation Committee's approach in setting Mr. Andrews' target annual
compensation was to seek to be competitive with other companies in the capital
goods industry, but also to base a significant portion of his target
compensation upon the attainment of objective performance goals.  This
arrangement provided incentives for Mr. Andrews to lead the Company towards
clearly defined performance goals, while still providing compensation stability
in the form of the base salary element of the compensation package.



                                      14
<PAGE>   16
             The compensation of James A. Bach, President and Chief Operating
Officer of the Company (who performed duties substantially similar to those of
Mr. Andrews following Mr. Andrews' resignation, and who was included in the
Summary Compensation Table for such period solely for that reason) represented
the continuation without change of Mr. Bach's compensation as an executive
officer of the Company prior to Mr. Andrews' resignation.

             In January 1994, the Compensation Committee established a base
salary for Mr. Andrews for 1994.  Mr. Andrews' long term incentive compensation
for 1994 was awarded in accordance with the policies described above for all
executive officers.  In February 1994, Mr. Andrews was granted an option to
purchase 150,000 shares of Common Stock with an option price of $2.25 per
share, this price being not less than the fair market value of the Common Stock
on the day immediately preceding the date of the grant.  See "Executive
Compensation - Stock Options." Options to purchase 97,500 shares expired upon
Mr. Andrews' resignation effective November 30, 1994.

             The foregoing report has been furnished by the members of the
Compensation Committee.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

         During 1994, Messrs. Bach (former Chairman), Dimond and Meyer (current
Chairman) and Ms. Rudd served as members of the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors; Mr. Bach is no longer a member of the Committee.  None of
the current members of the Compensation Committee is or has been an employee of
the Company.  Ms. Rudd is an executive officer of ING Equity Partners L.P. I,
an affiliate of Internationale Nederlanden Bank N.V.  See "Securities Ownership
of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management."  Internationale Nederlanden Bank
N.V. was one of the lenders under the Company's Senior and Subordinated Term
Loan Agreements which were terminated on September 30, 1994 (the "Old Loan
Agreements").  At December 31, 1994, there was no outstanding principal
indebtedness of the Company under the Old Loan Agreements.  During the year
ended December 31, 1994, the Company paid aggregate interest under the Old Loan
Agreements of $1,281,773 including interest payments to Internationale
Nederlanden Bank N.V. of $317,150.

         Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
         (the "Exchange Act").  However, to the extent that they are deemed to
         be a "group" within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange
         Act, each Reporting Lender (Bank of Scotland, Generale Bank, Pilgrim
         Prime Rate Trust and Risk Arbitrage Partners) may be deemed to have
         beneficial ownership of the total of all of the shares owned by all

         Schedule 13D filed by Elcor Corporation with the Commission on or
         about April 13, 1994.  On March 24, 1994, Elcor, through a
         wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with
         and sold its operating assets to a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
         Company in exchange for and in consideration of 2,151 shares of newly
         created Amdura Corporation Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred
         Stock, par value $.01 per share.  Each share of the Series B
         Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible at any time and
         from time to time, in whole or in part, at the option of Elcor into
         1,000 fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock until March
         31, 1997, at which time any remaining shares of Series B Cumulative
         Convertible Preferred Stock will be automatically converted into
         shares of Common Stock.  Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Securities
         and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Elcor is deemed to be the
         beneficial owner of such shares of Common Stock.
