Item 2: Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
In September 1996, Medite Corporation, an indirect, wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company, announced that it had signed three separate letters
of intent involving the sale of substantially all of its assets. The first
transaction, involving the sale of Medite's timber and timberlands to Rogue
Resources, LLC, an Oregon-based partnership of forest product operators, closed
in October 1996 for approximately $118 million cash consideration, of which
- 2 -
approximately $53 million of the cash proceeds were used to pay off and
terminate Medite's U.S. bank credit facilities. The second transaction,
involving the sale of Medite's Irish medium density fiberboard (`MDF'')
subsidiary to Willamette Industries, Inc., closed in November 1996 for $61.5
million cash consideration plus the assumption of approximately $21 million of
Irish bank debt. Medite continues to negotiate a definitive agreement with
Sierra Pine, a California limited partnership, for the third transaction
involving the sale of Medite's Oregon MDF facility, and Medite currently expects
to complete an agreement and close this transaction in the first quarter of
1997. Medite had previously expected to also sell to Sierra Pine its two Oregon
timber conversion facilities, but discussions with Sierra Pine regarding these
facilities have been discontinued and Medite has determined to permanently close
these facilities. One of such facilities was closed in December 1996, and
Medite is evaluating other opportunities to either sell or close the other
facility in 1997.

(Unaudited)
The cash consideration presented above includes Medite's current estimate of (i)
the net realizable value of the two Oregon timber conversion facilities which
Medite has determined to permanently close and sell and (ii) the cash proceeds
which will be realized from the sale of the Oregon MDF facility based upon the
current negotiations for the definitive agreement.
The effective income tax rate relating to the net pre-tax gain on disposal
differs from the 35% federal statutory rate due principally to the impact of
state income taxes.
II - Repayment of $53.0 million of Medite's U.S. bank indebtedness.
