                               THE LTV CORPORATION
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 March 31, 1997

NOTE (1) - The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements. All adjustments that are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation have been made and are of a
recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed herein. Certain prior period amounts
have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. The
results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results of operations for a full year. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 1996 included in the LTV Annual Report to Shareholders incorporated
by reference into the 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

NOTE (2) - The Company's income tax provision was $17.9 million in the first
three months of 1997 compared with $7.9 million in 1996. Included in the 1997
and 1996 first three months' income tax provisions are federal and state income
tax expense amounts of $16.1 million and $7.5 million, respectively, which do
not result in cash payments and were reported as increases to the additional
paid-in capital account of shareholders' equity. The Company's tax rate for the
first quarter of 1997 is higher than the prior year primarily due to higher
federal and state cash taxes.

NOTE (3) - In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 128, "Earnings per Share," which requires changes to the method
currently used to compute earnings per share. The impact of Statement No. 128 on
the calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings per share is not expected
to be material.

                 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF FIRST QUARTER 1997 AND 1996

Sales
- -----
         Sales of $1.072 billion in the first quarter of 1997 increased by $79
million (8%) from the first quarter of 1996. First quarter 1997 steel shipments
of 2.1 million tons increased by 85,000 tons (4%) from the first quarter of
1996. The overall sales increase in the first quarter of 1997 also included
higher average selling prices of 4%.

         Nonsteel sales in the first quarter of 1997 of $28.1 million were $2 
million higher than the first quarter of 1996.

Production and Costs
- --------------------
         Raw steel production of 2.2 million tons in the first quarter of 1997
increased by 33,000 tons compared with the first quarter of 1996. The average
operating rate (of AISI defined capacity) at the Company's steelmaking
facilities during the first quarter of 1997 was 108% compared with 105% in 1996.

         Cost of products sold as a percentage of sales decreased to 87% in the
first quarter of 1997 from 89% in the first quarter of 1996, primarily due to
the higher average selling prices in the 1997 period, partially offset by
increased ore production costs and higher steel production costs. The higher
steel production costs were principally due to labor, and outside processing and
warehousing.

Income Taxes
- ------------

         For information regarding income taxes, see Note (2) to the
consolidated financial statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents,
marketable securities, cash from operations, amounts available under credit
facilities and other external sources of funds. Management believes that these
sources are sufficient to fund the current requirements of working capital,
capital expenditures, investments in joint ventures, pensions and postemployment
health care.

         During the first three months of 1997, cash provided by operating
activities amounted to $61.3 million. In the first three months of 1997, total
cash and cash equivalents increased by $64.7 million, primarily due to the net
sales of marketable securities of $85.5 million. Major uses of cash during the
first three months of 1997 included capital expenditures of $58.9 million,

                                       I-5
<PAGE>   7


investments in steel-related businesses of $10.5 million, and $10.4 million for
the repurchase of Company stock. Since December 31, 1996, total cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities have decreased by $20.8 million to $653.0
million at March 31, 1997.

         The Company's receivables credit facility permits borrowings of up to
$320 million for working capital requirements and general corporate purposes,
$100 million of which may be used to issue letters of credit. At March 31, 1997,
$307.2 million was permitted to be borrowed; however, no borrowings were
outstanding and letters of credit outstanding amounted to $23.3 million under
this facility. The Company also has a separate letter of credit facility that
provides for the issuance of up to $150 million in letters of credit. At 
March 31, 1997, letters of credit totaling $75.6 million were outstanding under
this facility.

         The Company's long-term debt and credit facilities' agreements contain
various covenants that require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios
and amounts. These agreements, as well as the Company's agreement with the
Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the "PBGC Agreement"), place certain
restrictions on payments of dividends, share repurchases, capital expenditures,
investments in subsidiaries and borrowings. Under the terms of the most
restrictive debt covenant, approximately $165.7 million of retained earnings are
available for common stock dividend payments at March 31, 1997. Substantially
all of the Company's receivables and inventories are pledged as collateral under
these debt agreements. The Company does not believe that the restrictions
contained in these financial and operating covenants will cause significant
limitations on its financial flexibility.

         LTV competes directly with domestic and foreign integrated flat rolled
carbon steel producers and minimills, and indirectly with producers of plastics,
aluminum and other materials such as ceramics and wood, which sometimes can be
substituted for flat rolled carbon steel in manufacturing and construction.
Certain companies have announced plans or begun construction of additional
minimills to produce flat rolled products. Minimills are relatively efficient,
low-cost producers that generally produce steel from scrap in electric furnaces,
have lower employment and environmental costs, and generally target regional
markets. Thin slab casting technologies have allowed some minimills to enter
certain flat rolled markets that have traditionally been supplied by integrated
producers. The primary factors that affect competition include price, quality,
delivery and customer service. LTV targets quality-critical, value-added
applications and believes it is able to differentiate some of its products from
those of competitors on the basis of product quality, on-time delivery
performance, and product and technical support to customers. LTV will continue
to require substantial funds in future years to maintain and improve its steel
operations in order to compete with steel substitutes, minimills and other fully
integrated steelmakers. Capital expenditures for the full year are estimated to
total approximately $320 million. In the first quarter of 1997, the Company
invested $10.0 million in Cliffs and Associates, Ltd, a joint venture to produce
direct reduced iron (DRI) briquettes in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago.

ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES AND RELATED COSTS

         LTV is subject to changing and increasingly stringent environmental
laws and regulations concerning air emissions, water discharges and waste
disposal, as well as remediation activities that involve the clean-up of
environmental media such as soils and groundwater ("remediation liabilities").
As a consequence, the Company has incurred, and will continue to incur,
substantial capital expenditures and operating and maintenance expenses in order
to comply with such requirements. Additionally, if any of the Company's
facilities are unable to meet required environmental standards or laws, those
operations could be temporarily or permanently closed.

         The Company spent $2.7 million during the first three months of 1997
for environmental clean-up and related matters at operating and idled
facilities, and at March 31, 1997, has a recorded liability of $82.3 million for
known and identifiable environmental and related matters. As the Company becomes
aware of additional matters or obtains more information, it may be required to
record additional liabilities for environmental remediation. The Company also
spent $6.8 million in the first three months of 1997 for environmental
compliance-related capital expenditures and expects it will be required to spend
an average of approximately $35 million annually in capital expenditures during
the next five years to meet environmental standards.

OUTLOOK

         Through the end of the first quarter of 1997, the Company has 
continued to experience a high demand for its products and a strong rate of
incoming orders, although this may not continue in the future due to rising
import levels and a strengthening dollar. These factors, along with industry
capacity additions, could negatively affect future market prices for the
Company's products.

         This report includes forward-looking statements. Our use of the words
"outlook," "believes," "estimate," "expect" and similar words are intended to
identify these statements as forward looking. These statements represent our
current judgment on what the future holds. While we believe them to be
reasonable, a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ
materially from those projected. These factors include relatively small changes
in market price or market demand; changes in raw material costs; increased
operating costs; loss of business from major customers, especially for high
value-added product; unanticipated expenses; substantial changes in financial
markets; labor unrest; unfair foreign competition; major equipment failure; or
unanticipated results in pending legal proceedings. In this regard, we also
direct your attention to factors discussed above in the Management's Discussion
and Analysis.

                                    PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

     EPA - Pittsburgh Coke Battery. LTV Steel Company, Inc. ("LTV Steel")
received a Notice of Violation ("NOV") issued by the U.S. EPA alleging
"continuous and substantial exceedances" of certain emission standards at LTV
Steel's Pittsburgh coke battery during the period May 1 through December 31,
1996. LTV Steel is subject to a maximum penalty of $25,000 per day for each
violation.

     Thomson Litigation. The time for petitioning for a rehearing of the
decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, which affirmed the
decisions of the lower federal courts in the "Thomson Litigation" referred to in
Item 3 of LTV's Report on 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996, has
expired. LTV and Thomson have had discussions regarding the appropriate method
of calculation of interest on the judgment in LTV's favor. However, the time
period in which Thomson could petition for a writ of certiori to the U.S.
Supreme Court does not expire until June 23, 1997.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

BY-LAW AMENDMENTS:
ADVANCE STOCKHOLDER NOTICE REQUIREMENTS AND OTHER PROVISIONS

     In 1996, LTV adopted amendments to its By-Laws intended to promote the
efficient functioning of its annual meetings. The amendments confirm LTV's right
to determine the time, place and conduct of stockholder meetings, require
advance notice by mail or delivery to LTV of stockholder proposals or director
nominations for annual meetings and require persons wishing to conduct a
solicitation of written consents of stockholders or to call a special meeting of
stockholders to apply to the Board of Directors to set a record date for the
consent solicitation or to determine whether the requisite number of
stockholders desire to call a special meeting.

     Under the amended By-Laws, stockholders must provide LTV with at least 60
days, but no more than 90 days, notice prior to the announced Tentative Meeting
Date of (i) business the stockholder is proposing for consideration at that
meeting and (ii) persons the stockholder intends to nominate for election as
directors at that meeting.

REQUIRED APPROVAL FOR CERTAIN PURCHASES OF
COMMON STOCK AND SERIES A WARRANTS

     For the purpose of preserving LTV's ability to utilize certain favorable
tax attributes, Article Ninth of LTV's Restated Certificate of Incorporation
prohibits, with certain limited exceptions, any unapproved acquisition of Common
Stock or Series A Warrants that would cause the ownership interest percentage of
the acquirer or any other person to increase to 4.5% or above. A person's
ownership interest percentage for purposes of Article Ninth is determined by
reference to specified federal income tax principles, including attribution of
shares from certain related parties, deemed exercise of rights to acquire stock
(such as the Company's Series A Warrants) and aggregation of shares purchased
by persons acting in concert. PURCHASES OF COMMON STOCK OR SERIES A WARRANTS


                                      II-1
<PAGE>   10


FROM ANY PERSON OTHER THAN THE COMPANY ARE SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATIONS IMPOSED BY
ARTICLE NINTH, AND ANY UNAPPROVED PURCHASE IN EXCESS OF THE AMOUNTS PERMITTED BY
ARTICLE NINTH WILL BE VOID AB INITIO. A PROSPECTIVE PURCHASER OF COMMON STOCK OR
SERIES A WARRANTS WHO BELIEVES THAT IT MAY BE SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATIONS IMPOSED
BY ARTICLE NINTH SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR ADVISORS OR LTV IN ADVANCE OF
ACQUIRING SUCH SECURITIES TO DETERMINE IF ADVANCE APPROVAL MUST BE OBTAINED FROM
LTV'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

     LTV's Board of Directors was required by Article Ninth of LTV's Restated
Certificate of Incorporation to consider during 1996 whether to waive the
transfer restrictions in Article Ninth with respect to all future transfers of
securities. At its October 1996 meeting, the Board of Directors, after
considering all relevant factors, determined not to waive Article Ninth at this
time.

                               TENTH AMENDMENT TO
                         PBGC-LTV SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

         This Tenth Amendment to the PBGC-LTV Settlement Agreement (this
 "AMENDMENT") is made as of February 25, 1997, by and among (1) Pension Benefit
 Guaranty Corporation ("PBGC") and (2) The LTV Corporation, a corporation
 organized under the laws of Delaware (in such capacity, "LTV"), and each other
 member of the LTV Controlled Group (as defined in the Settlement Agreement).
 Capitalized terms used without definition herein shall have the same meanings
 as set forth in the Settlement Agreement.

                                    RECITALS

          WHEREAS, on June 28, 1993, the PBGC, LTV, each other member of the
 Initial LTV Group, and the Administrator entered into the Settlement Agreement
 (the "SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT");

         WHEREAS, LTV has requested certain amendments to the Settlement 
Agreement and the PBGC is amenable thereto; and

         WHEREAS, the Settlement Agreement authorizes the amendment of that
 Agreement pursuant to an agreement entered into by the PBGC and LTV evidenced
 by written instrument signed by their authorized representatives.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements, 
provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 SECTION 1.               AMENDMENT TO DEFINITION OF "LIEN"
                          ---------------------------------

         The definition of "Lien" in Section 1.1 (gg) is hereby amended by
 inserting, immediately after the word "asset" in clause (a) thereof, the
 parenthetical phrase "(other than a lease which is not a Capital Lease)."
<PAGE>   2



 SECTION 2.   AMENDMENT TO ARTICLE VIII
              -------------------------

        Section 8.1 (a) is hereby amended by deleting the word "and" before
 clause (v) and the period after clause (v) and inserting the following clause
 immediately following clause (v) thereof:

        "; and (vi) this Section 8.1(a) shall not apply to the sale or lease
        of assets forming a part of a sale and leaseback transaction otherwise
        permitted by this Agreement."

 SECTION 3.   AMENDMENTS TO SECTION 12.3
              --------------------------

        (i) The proviso in Section 12.3(b) is hereby amended to read in its
        entirety as follows:

        "provided, that this provision shall not prohibit the sale and leaseback
        of property (i) under circumstances where a direct Lien on such property
        could have been created without violating the provisions of Section
        12.3(a) or (ii) acquired by any member of The LTV Group on or prior to
        June 28, 1993, provided that the aggregate amount of the liability
        (determined as hereinafter provided) outstanding at any time under all
        such leases of property acquired on or prior to June 28, 1993 shall not
        exceed $10,000,000, it being understood that such liability shall be
        determined as if the lease portion of each such sale and leaseback was
        accounted for as a Capital Lease."

        (ii) Clause (iv)(b) of the definition of "Permitted Indebtedness" in
 Section 12.3(c) is hereby amended by changing the phrase "$50 million" to "$150
 million."

 SECTION 4.    EFFECTIVENESS AND MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
               ------------------------------------------
        A.     EFFECTIVENESS. This Amendment shall become effective as of 
February 25, 1997 (THE "TENTH AMENDMENT EFFECTIVE DATE") when it, or a
counterpart thereof, is executed by a duly authorized officer of each of the
PBGC and LTV.

        B.     REFERENCE TO AND EFFECT ON THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT.

               (i)     On and after the Tenth Amendment Effective Date, each 
reference in the Settlement Agreement to "this Agreement," "hereunder,"
"hereof" "herein" or words of like import referring to the Settlement
Agreement shall mean and be a reference to the Settlement Agreement as amended
by this Amendment.

                 (ii) Except as specifically amended by this Amendment, the
 Settlement Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

         C.      APPLICABLE LAW. This Amendment shall be interpreted in 
accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York, except to the
extent preempted by federal law.

         D.      COUNTERPARTS. This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of
which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such
counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties to this Amendment have caused this
 Amendment to be duly executed and delivered by their respective duly authorized
 officers or representatives as of the day and year first written above.
