                              CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
 
     The Board  of  Directors  has the  responsibility  for  establishing  broad
corporate  policies and for the overall  performance of the Company, taking into
consideration the interests of all shareholders regardless of class. Members  of
the Board are kept informed of the Company's business by various reports sent to
them  regularly, as well as by operating and financial reports made at Board and
Committee meetings by the Chairman and other officers. During 1994 the Board met
eight times.
 
     The Executive Committee  of the  Board may exercise  substantially all  the
authority  of the Board during the intervals  between the meetings of the Board.
The Executive Committee currently consists of Mr. Farrell, as Chairman, and  all
other directors, except that a quorum of the Executive Committee consists of one
third  of the  number of  members of the  Committee, three  of whom  must not be
employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Executive Committee met
once during 1994.
 
     The Audit and Ethics Committee recommends to the Board the selection by the
shareholders  at  their  annual  meeting   of  a  firm  of  independent   public
accountants.  In addition, the Committee  confers with the Company's independent
public accountants to review the plan and scope of their proposed audit as  well
as  their findings  and recommendations  upon the  completion of  the audit. The
Committee meets with  the independent  public accountants  and with  appropriate
Company  financial  personnel  and  internal  auditors  regarding  the Company's
internal controls, practices  and procedures.  The Committee  also oversees  the
Company's  legal and business  ethics compliance programs.  The Audit and Ethics
Committee currently consists of Mr. Anton, as Chairman, Dr. Haywood and  Messrs.
Jordan  and Stone, none of whom is an  officer or employee of the Company or any
of its subsidiaries, and met four times during 1994.
 
     The Compensation and Benefits Committee is responsible for establishing and
reviewing policies governing salaries, incentive compensation and the terms  and
conditions  of employment  of senior executives  and other key  employees of the
Company. In addition,  the Committee  is responsible  for the  oversight of  the
Company's  stock  option plans  for  employees and  similar  plans which  may be
maintained from time to time by the  Company and has authority to grant  options
under  the Company's 1988 Stock Option  Plan. The Committee coordinates with the
appropriate financial, legal  and administrative  personnel of  the Company,  as
well  as outside experts retained in connection with the administration of these
plans. The  Compensation  and  Benefits  Committee  currently  consists  of  Mr.
Spilman, as Chairman, and Messrs. Ackerman, Anton and Zimmerman, none of whom is
an  officer or employee of the Company or  any of its subsidiaries, and met four
times during 1994.
 
     The Nominating Committee recommends to  the Board nominees for election  as
directors  and as  senior executive  officers of  the Company.  In addition, the
Committee reviews the performance of incumbent directors in determining  whether
to  recommend them to the Board for  renomination. Directors are selected on the
basis of  recognized  achievements and  their  ability to  bring  expertise  and
experience  to the  deliberations of  the Board.  The Nominating  Committee also
administers the Directors'  Charitable Award Program.  The Nominating  Committee
currently  consists of Mr.  Zimmerman, as Chairman,  Messrs. Broadhead and Craig
and Dr. Haywood, none of whom is an officer or employee of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries, and met  three times during  1994. For information  concerning
procedures  to be followed for submitting names of nominees for consideration by
the Nominating Committee, see 'Other Information -- Shareholder Proposals.'
 
     The Finance Committee recommends  to the Board  dividend and other  actions
and  policies regarding  the financial affairs  of the  Company, including those
relating to matters that may affect the
 
                                       2
 
<PAGE>
financial strength of the Company.  The Finance Committee currently consists  of
Mr.  Craig, as Chairman, and Messrs. Barker, Jordan and Spilman, none of whom is
an officer or employee of the Company  or any of its subsidiaries, and met  four
times during 1994.
 
     The  Pension Committee  is responsible for  the oversight  of the Company's
Pension-Retirement Plan and Savings-Investment Plan and any similar plans  which
may  be maintained  from time  to time  by the  Company. The  Committee also has
general oversight responsibility  for pension  plans maintained  by foreign  and
other  subsidiaries  of  the  Company.  The  Committee  has  authority  to adopt
amendments to the Company's  Pension-Retirement Plan, Pension Equalization  Plan
and   Savings-Investment  Plan.  In  carrying  out  these  responsibilities  the
Committee coordinates with the  appropriate financial, legal and  administrative
personnel  of the  Company, including the  Administrative Committee,  as well as
outside experts retained in connection  with the administration of those  plans.
The  Pension Committee currently consists of Mr. Stone, as Chairman, and Messrs.
Ackerman, Barker and Broadhead, none  of whom is an  officer or employee of  the
Company  or any of its subsidiaries. The Pension Committee met four times during
1994.
 
     During 1994 all  incumbent directors  attended at  least 75%  of the  total
number  of meetings of the Board of Directors and of the committees of the Board
on which  they served,  except for  Mr. Marshall.  Average attendance  at  those
meetings was approximately 91%.
 
COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
 
     Each  non-employee director is  paid an annual retainer  fee of $18,000, an
attendance fee of  $1,100 per  day for  each meeting of  the Board  and of  each
committee  of the Board  and a fee of  $1,100 per day  for rendering any special
services to the Company at the request of the Chairman of the Board. A  director
may  elect to defer receipt of his fees  to future years and to receive interest
thereon, compounded quarterly, at  the prime commercial  lending rate of  Morgan
Guaranty Trust Company of New York.
 
     Each  non-employee director with at least  five years of service receives a
pension, if he retires at or after age 72, does not stand for reelection because
he will attain age 72 during the ensuing term, retires prior to age 72 but after
age 65 for reasons such as health or  relocation or retires at any time after  a
change  in control  (as defined).  Such a  director with  five years  of service
receives a pension equal to 50% of the annual retainer fee in effect at the time
of his retirement; for  each additional year of  service a director receives  an
additional  10%  of such  retainer fee  until his  retirement income  equals the
annual retainer fee in effect at the time of his retirement.
 
     Under the  Non-Employee  Directors'  Stock  Option  Plan,  adopted  by  the
shareholders  in 1988 and amended  by the shareholders in  1993, an option grant
for 10,000  shares of  Services Stock  and 2,000  shares of  Minerals Stock,  at
option  prices of 100% of fair market value on the date of grant is made to each
non-employee  director  upon  his  election  as  a  director.  Each  option   is
exercisable  immediately as to one  third of the shares  and as to an additional
one third on the first and second  anniversaries of the grant date. Pursuant  to
the  1993 amendment, the Non-Employee Directors'  Stock Option Plan provides for
automatic annual grants of  options for 1,000 shares  of Services Stock and  200
shares  of Minerals Stock at 100%  of fair market value on  the date of grant to
each Non-Employee Director on each July 1 so long as the plan remains in  effect
(the  first such grants  were made on  August 1, 1993);  cash retainer fees were
reduced in connection with the approval of such amendment. Each such option will
become exercisable six months from the date of grant. Each option granted  under
the  Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option  Plan constitutes a nonqualified stock
option under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
 
                                       3
 
<PAGE>
amended (the  'Code'), and  terminates ten  years from  the date  of grant.  The
Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan expires May 11, 1998.
 
     Under  the Directors' Charitable Award  Program the Company will contribute
$1,100,000 on behalf of each participating director after such director's death.
Of that amount, $100,000 will be donated to one or more tax-exempt organizations
designated by the Company, and $1,000,000 will be donated in accordance with the
director's recommendations to eligible  educational institutions and  charitable
organizations.  Each  of the  Company's non-employee  directors and  Mr. Farrell
currently participate in the Directors' Charitable Award Program. The Company is
the owner and beneficiary of life  insurance policies insuring the lives of  the
participating  directors.  Premiums paid  in 1994  in  respect of  such policies
totaled an aggregate of approximately $361,007.

(*) In  February  1994 the  Company accelerated  the  vesting of  Mr. Marshall's
    options for 34,000  shares of Services  Stock and 9,850  shares of  Minerals
    Stock such that such options became exercisable on April 15, 1994.
 
PENSION-RETIREMENT PLAN
 
     The  Company  maintains  a  noncontributory  Pension-Retirement  Plan  (the
'Pension Plan')  covering, generally,  full-time employees  of the  Company  and
participating  subsidiaries  who  are  not covered  by  a  collective bargaining
agreement. The Pension Plan provides  that an eligible employee upon  retirement
at  age 65 will receive  an annual benefit equivalent  to 2.1% of average salary
for his  or her  36 consecutive  months of  highest earnings  multiplied by  the
number  of years  of service  not to exceed  25 years,  plus 1%  of such average
salary  multiplied   by   the   number   of   years   of   service   in   excess
 
                                       7
 
<PAGE>
of 25 years, less 0.55% of the average Social Security taxable wage base for the
relevant  period provided in the Pension Plan  multiplied by his or her years of
service  not  to  exceed  35.  Salary  under  the  Pension  Plan  means  regular
compensation,  including  commissions,  bonuses, overtime  and  premium  pay but
excluding any living or other expense  allowances. An eligible employee who  has
completed ten years of Vesting Service may retire at any time after reaching his
or  her  55th birthday  and become  entitled to  receive an  actuarially reduced
pension. Employees may elect to have  their annual pension benefits paid in  the
form  of a straight life  annuity, joint and survivor  annuity or period certain
annuity. The Pension Plan also  provides certain disability retirement  benefits
and  death benefits. Accrued Plan benefits are vested upon employees' completion
of five years of Vesting Service. The  Code limits the amount of pensions  which
may  be paid under  federal income tax  qualified plans. The  Company's Board of
Directors has adopted a Pension Equalization  Plan under which the Company  will
make  additional  payments so  that  the total  amount  received by  each person
affected by  the Code  limitations is  the  same as  would otherwise  have  been
received under the Pension Plan. The Company has reserved the right to terminate
or amend the Pension Plan or the Pension Equalization Plan at any time.
 
     The  table  below illustrates  the estimated  annual benefits  payable upon
retirement at  age  65 under  the  Pension  and Pension  Equalization  Plans  to
officers  and other eligible employees in  various classifications as to average
salary and years of service. The table does not reflect reductions on account of
the Social Security taxable wage base referred to above.

Such amounts  are based  on the  assumption that  the employee  will be  in  the
Company's  employ until  normal retirement date  (age 65), that  the Pension and
Pension Equalization  Plans will  continue  in effect  without change  and  that
payments  will be made on a straight life annuity basis. The Pension and Pension
Equalization Plans give effect  to the full amount  of earnings shown under  the
salary  and bonus  columns of  the Summary  Compensation Table.  At December 31,
1994, the executive  officers named in  such Table had  been credited under  the
Pension  Plan with the following years of service: Messrs. Farrell and Marshall,
11 years; Mr. Rogliano, 11 years; Mr.  Spindler, 8 years; Mr. Lennon, 17  years;
and  Mr. Hartough, 8  years. Messrs. Farrell  and Marshall are  also entitled to
certain supplemental pension benefits under  agreements with each of them.  Such
supplemental  pension  benefits are  calculated on  the  basis of  the Company's
Pension Plan but with effect being given to periods of up to 20 years of certain
prior employment and with  a reduction in such  benefits to reflect any  pension
payable  under  the  Company's  Plan  and under  the  plan  covering  such prior
employment. The effect of these agreements is
 
                                       8
 
<PAGE>
to increase the years of  credited service as of  December 31, 1994 for  Messrs.
Farrell and Marshall to 27 and 29 years of service, respectively.
 
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
 
     The Company has entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Farrell and
Marshall,  extending through  April 1996,  in the case  of Mr.  Farrell, and May
1995, in the case of Mr. Marshall.  The agreements provide for a minimum  annual
salary of $425,000, in the case of Mr. Farrell, and $200,000, in the case of Mr.
Marshall.  On March 10, 1994 the Compensation and Benefits Committee approved an
increase, effective April 1, 1994, to Mr. Farrell's annual salary from  $425,000
to  $475,000. Mr. Farrell's agreement also provides for a termination payment in
the event of  termination of  employment for reasons  other than  Due Cause  (as
defined  in the agreement).  Such termination payment  would be a  lump sum cash
payment equal  to  the  sum  of  (i)  the  annual  salary  in  effect  prior  to
termination,  multiplied by  a fraction  (the 'Remaining  Term Multiplier'), the
numerator of  which  is the  number  of months  in  the remaining  term  of  the
agreement  and the denominator  of which is  twelve, (ii) the  last annual bonus
actually  paid,  multiplied  by  the  Remaining  Term  Multiplier  and  (iii)  a
reasonable  sum  reflecting  the  economic equivalent  of  participation  in all
applicable employee benefit programs  of the Company for  the remaining term  of
the  agreement. The  Remaining Term  Multiplier may  not be  less than  1.5. The
employment agreements  also entitle  each  of Messrs.  Farrell and  Marshall  to
participate  in the  Company's management and  other employee  benefit plans, to
receive supplemental  pension  and disability  benefits  and, in  the  event  of
termination  of employment for disability or early retirement after the original
term of his agreement, to be deemed eligible for early retiree medical  coverage
under  the Company's Comprehensive  Medical Expense Benefits  Plan regardless of
age and  years of  services  as though  December 31,  1994,  had been  an  early
retirement  date.  In  March 1995  the  Company  entered into  a  new employment
agreement with  Mr.  Marshall extending  through  May 1998,  which  will  become
effective  on June 1, 1995, upon the termination of his existing agreement. Such
agreement provides for  a salary of  $150,000 for the  period beginning June  1,
1995  and ending May 31,  1996, and thereafter at a  salary of $40,000 per year,
and entitles Mr. Marshall to participate  in the Company's management and  other
employee benefit plans applicable to his status, to receive supplemental pension
benefits, and, in the event of early retirement or termination of employment for
any other reason, to be deemed eligible for early retiree medical coverage under
the Company's Comprehensive Medical Expense Benefits Plan.
 
CHANGE IN CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS
 
     In  1984  the Board  approved the  original employment  agreement described
above with Mr. Farrell, as an inducement  for him to accept employment with  the
Company. At the same time the Board approved a supplemental employment agreement
with  him, providing for continuation of  employment after a 'change in control'
(as defined) of the Company, but not beyond age 65, at an annual salary equal to
his annual salary in effect on the date of the commencement of his employment in
1984 plus his first annual discretionary  bonus, the aggregate of the two  being
annually  indexed from such commencement  date, in the case  of salary, and from
the date of payment,  in the case  of the bonus, by  the following formula:  the
higher  of (i) 10%  or (ii) 80% of  the percentage change  in the Consumer Price
Index. Under the supplemental  employment agreement Mr.  Farrell is entitled  to
continue  to participate in all management and employee benefit plans, to accrue
pension benefits and, in  the event of termination  of employment, to receive  a
cash payment equivalent to the value of all unexercised
 
                                       9
 
<PAGE>
stock  options  (whether or  not then  exercisable). Mr.  Farrell has  agreed to
remain in the Company's employ during the term of his supplemental agreement. In
case of termination  of employment,  Mr. Farrell is  under no  duty to  mitigate
damages,  and remuneration received from other  sources cannot be offset against
the Company's obligations under the  supplemental employment agreement. In  1984
the  Board also approved  a change in  control agreement for  Mr. Marshall; such
agreement terminated in May 1994.
 
     The Company has entered into  change in control employment agreements  with
Messrs.  Hartough, Lennon  and Rogliano.  In these  agreements Messrs. Hartough,
Lennon and Rogliano agree to remain in the employ of the Company for a specified
term after  a  'change in  control'  (as  defined). In  the  agreements  initial
aggregate  cash  compensation is  determined on  the basis  of salary  and bonus
levels paid  when  the agreement  takes  effect.  In general,  the  Company  may
terminate  the employee's  employment for 'cause,'  and, in the  case of Messrs.
Lennon and Rogliano's agreements, the employee may terminate his employment  for
'good   reason,'   which  includes   an  overall   reduction  in   authority  or
responsibility or a requirement to change base location. In case of  termination
for  'good reason,' the employee is, in substance, entitled to receive an amount
equal to his compensation for the remaining term of his agreement or, in certain
cases, a discounted lump-sum payment. In 1988 the Company entered into a similar
change in control employment agreement with Mr. Spindler; such agreement expired
in December 1994.
 
     In case a 'change in  control' should occur, for  example on July 1,  1995,
the  terms of the change  in control employment agreements  would be as follows:
Mr. Farrell, 60 months; and Messrs. Hartough, Lennon and Rogliano, 36 months.
 
     Not later  than 90  days following  a  change in  control, the  Company  is
obligated  to contribute an  amount in cash  to a trust  established between the
Company and The Chase Manhattan Bank (National Association). Such amount must be
sufficient to provide the benefits to  which (a) participants under the  Pension
Equalization  Plan  and  the  Retirement Plan  for  Non-Employee  Directors (the
'Plans') and (b) employees covered under certain employment contracts, including
Messrs. Farrell and Marshall,  are entitled pursuant to  the terms of the  Plans
and  employment contracts as in effect on the date of the change in control. The
assets of the  trust will  be subject  to the  claims of  the Company's  general
creditors in the event of the Company's insolvency.
 
COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A)
 
     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's
directors  and executive officers,  and any persons  who own more  than 10% of a
registered class of the Company's equity securities to file with the  Securities
and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange reports of ownership and
changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company.
Officers,  directors  and  greater than  10%  shareholders are  required  by SEC
regulation to furnish the  Company with copies of  all Section 16(a) forms  they
file.  Based solely on a  review of the copies of  such reports furnished to the
Company or  written representations  that no  other reports  were required,  the
Company  believes that, during  1994, all filing  requirements applicable to its
officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were complied with.

REPORT OF COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS COMMITTEE
 
     The Compensation  and Benefits  Committee of  the Board  of Directors  (the
'Compensation Committee') is responsible for establishing and reviewing policies
governing  salaries,  incentive compensation,  and the  terms and  conditions of
employment  of  executive  officers  of   the  Company.  The  policies  of   the
Compensation  Committee applicable to the compensation of executive officers are
described below.
 
     The Compensation Committee has established an overall compensation  program
to  attract,  retain  and  motivate  executive  officers  and  to  enhance their
incentive to perform at  the highest level and  contribute significantly to  the
Company's  success. Recognizing  the desirability  of tying  the compensation of
executive officers to performance and of aligning their interests closely to the
long-term interests  of  the  Company and  its  shareholders,  the  Compensation
Committee  has  determined  that  a  significant  part  of  the  compensation of
executive officers should be paid in the form of annual incentive payments under
the Key Employees Incentive Plan and stock option grants.
 
     The Compensation  Committee has  from  time to  time engaged  a  recognized
consultant  in  the  executive  compensation field  to  review  and  confirm the
appropriateness of the  Company's salary, annual  bonus and long-term  incentive
programs  for  executive officers.  In collaboration  with that  consultant, the
Compensation Committee has  developed a  policy to make  available to  executive
officers  the opportunity  to earn  annual cash  compensation close  to the 50th
percentile for  comparable positions  in companies  of similar  size across  all
industries  from  whom the  Company seeks  to  attract executive  officers. Cash
compensation is paid to  executive officers in the  form of salaries and  annual
incentive payments under the Key Employees Incentive Plan.
 
     The  Compensation Committee periodically reviews  the salaries of executive
officers in  light of  competitive standards  and the  Compensation  Committee's
evaluation  of their  individual performance and  makes such  adjustments as are
appropriate.  Each  year  the  Compensation  Committee  prescribes  target  cash
incentive  awards for executive officers under the Key Employees Incentive Plan.
Such target incentives are indicative of the incentive payment that an executive
officer might expect to receive for such year based upon a strong performance by
the individual executive officer in achieving established individual objectives,
his operating  or staff  unit and  the  overall performance  of the  Company  or
relevant  operating groups. For purposes of calculating actual awards under such
guidelines, individual performance is given a weight factor of 50%, and unit and
the Company  or  relevant operating  group  performance are  each  given  weight
factors of 25%.
 
     Under  the policy and administrative guidelines adopted by the Compensation
Committee for 1994, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the 'CEO') had a
target cash incentive award of  50% of salary based  on full performance by  the
Company  and by  him individually.  Based on  such guidelines,  the CEO's actual
award could have ranged from 0 to  100% of salary, depending on his  performance
rating  and that of the Company as  determined by the Compensation Committee and
approved by  the Board.  The Committee  recommended and  the Board  approved  an
annual  incentive payment  of $475,000 or  100% of  salary for the  CEO for 1994
after considering the  following quantitative  and qualitative  measures of  the
Company's  performance in 1994: (i) estimated actual earnings and cash flow on a
consolidated basis, (ii) estimated  actual operating earnings  and cash flow  of
each  reportable business segment, (iii) the employee safety performance of each
segment, (iv)  the  achievement of  record  earnings  in each  of  the  Services
segments,   (v)   the   achievement  of   record   revenues  in   each   of  the
 
                                       11
 
<PAGE>
Services segments, (vi) the achievement of  record cash flows at Burlington  and
significant  cash flow  improvements in the  other Services  segments, (vii) the
implementation of the integration of  assets acquired from Addington  Resources,
Inc. and (viii) the increase in productivity at Pittston Coal. In evaluating the
performance  of each business segment and the  Company as a whole, the Committee
took into  account  as  additional  factors and  criteria:  pricing  and  market
conditions  affecting each business segment; the  effect of the world economy on
such  businesses;  comparative   performance  of   the  Company's   competitors;
productivity and cost containment measures successfully carried out; progress of
management  development  and  employee  relations efforts;  and  the  quality of
strategic  planning  and  communications   with  external  constituencies.   The
Committee's  evaluation  of the  CEO's  performance was  based  not only  on the
measures of  the  Company's  performance  and the  other  factors  and  criteria
described above but also on the Committee's good faith business judgement of the
CEO's performance as it related to results in 1994 and the long-term positioning
of  the Company. The  Compensation Committee did not  attach specific weights to
the foregoing factors, but in  general the Committee attached more  significance
to earnings results than the other factors.
 
     In 1994 the Compensation Committee made no stock option grants to executive
officers of the Company.
 
     The   Compensation   Committee  believes   that   reasonable  post-takeover
employment arrangements are often an essential aspect of the terms of employment
of executive  officers. The  Committee  also recognizes  the importance  to  the
Company  of retaining  its executive  officers during  and after  the disruption
typically provoked by a takeover  offer (whether or not ultimately  successful).
The  Company is party to a 'change in control' employment agreement with each of
its executive officers,  and the Compensation  Committee is firmly  of the  view
that the Company and its shareholders have benefitted from the relatively modest
protection  which such agreements afford to  its executive officers. The Company
also has entered into employment  agreements with Messrs. Farrell and  Marshall.
The  Compensation Committee  believes that  these employment  agreements provide
reasonable compensation  arrangements and  give  the Company  a high  degree  of
management stability during a period of economic change.
 
     The  Omnibus Budget  Reconciliation Act  of 1993  contained a  new Internal
Revenue Code Section 162(m)(1) which disallows a tax deduction for any  publicly
held  corporation for remuneration exceeding $1  million in any taxable year for
chief executive  officers  and  certain other  executive  officers,  except  for
remuneration  paid  under  qualifying  'performance based'  plans.  In  1994 the
Company's shareholders approved amendments to  the 1988 Stock Option Plan  which
qualify the grant of options under such Plan under Section 162(m). The Committee
will  continue to evaluate the impact of the Section 162(m)(1) limitations on an
ongoing basis in light of final regulations and future events with an  objective
of achieving deductibility to the extent appropriate.

(1) On July 26,  1993, the  Company's shareholders approved  the Services  Stock
    Proposal  under which  the Company reclassified  its former  single class of
    common stock by redesignating it as Pittston Services Group Common Stock and
    distributing a second class of common stock designated as Pittston  Minerals
    Group  Common Stock on the basis of one fifth of one share of such Stock for
    each share of  the Company's  former common  stock held  by shareholders  of
    record  on July 26, 1993. For the  line designated as 'The Pittston Company'
    the graph depicts the  cumulative return on $100  invested in the  Company's
    former  single class of  common stock from  January 1, 1989  through July 5,
    1993 (the  last trading  day prior  to the  commencement of  trading in  the
    Services  Stock and  the Minerals  Stock). Since July  6, 1993  (the date of
    commencement of trading in  the Services Stock and  the Minerals Stock)  the
    graph depicts the cumulative return on a capitalization-weighted combination
    of  Services  Stock  and Minerals  Stock.  For  the S&P  500  Index  and the
    Composite Peer Group  Index, cumulative  returns are measured  on an  annual
    basis for the period from January 1, 1989 through July 5, 1993 and then from
    July  6, 1993 through December 31, 1994, with the value of each index set to
    $100 on January 1, 1989. Total return assumes reinvestment of dividends. The
    returns of  the component  companies included  in the  Composite Peer  Group
    Index are weighted
 
                                       13

    according  to such company's market capitalization  at the beginning of each
    period. Companies  in  the  Composite  Peer  Group  Index  are  as  follows:
    Addington   Resources,   Inc.;   Air   Express   International  Corporation;
    Consolidated  Freightways,  Inc.;  Expeditors  International  Inc.;  Federal
    Express  Corporation; Harper Group Inc.; MAPCO; Wackenhut Corporation (Class

                             PROPOSALS OF THE BOARD
 
     The  following proposals are expected to  be presented to the meeting. With
respect to each  proposal all shares  of Minerals and  Services Stock will  vote
together  as a  single voting  group, and  each such  share will  have one vote.
Proposal No. 1  --  Election of Directors: in order to be elected, nominees  for
director  must receive a plurality of the  votes cast by those present in person
or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions
and shares held  by a broker  in 'street  name' ('Broker Shares')  that are  not
voted  in the  election of  directors will  not be  included in  determining the
number of  votes  cast. Proposal  No.  2   --    Approval of  the  Selection  of
Independent  Certified Public Accountants: must receive more votes cast in favor
of such proposal by holders  of the shares present  in person or represented  by
proxy  at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon than votes cast in opposition
to such proposal by  such holders. Abstentions and  Brokers Shares that are  not
voted  on Proposal No. 2 will not be  counted in determining the number of votes
cast. Proposal  No. 3   --   Amendment  and Restatement  of the  Key  Employees'
Deferred  Compensation program: must receive the affirmative vote of the holders
of a majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting
and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions and Broker Shares that are voted as to
any matter presented at the  meeting, but not voted on  Proposal No. 3, will  be
counted  as present but not voted and will have the same effect as votes cast in
opposition to such  Proposal. Broker  Shares that are  not voted  on any  matter
presented  at the  meeting will  not be  included in  determining the  number of
shares present or represented at the meeting.
 
                   PROPOSAL NO. 1  --  ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
 
     In accordance with the Company's charter and bylaws, the Board of Directors
is divided into  three classes,  with the  term of office  of one  of the  three
classes  of directors expiring each year and with each class being elected for a
three-year term. Under the  bylaws the number of  directors that constitute  the
entire  Board  is  currently  twelve.  Following the  meeting  of  the  Board of
Directors  scheduled  to  be  held  on  the  date  of  the  Annual  Meeting   of
Shareholders,  there will  be a  vacancy in  the class  of directors  whose term
expires in 1996.
 
     The nominees for  election as  directors for three-year  terms expiring  in
1998 are: Messrs. James R. Barker, James L. Broadhead, Ronald M. Gross and David
L. Marshall.
 
     The  Board of Directors has  no reason to believe  that any of the nominees
are not available or  will not serve  if elected. If any  of them should  become
unavailable  to serve as a director, full  discretion is reserved to the persons
named as proxies to vote for such other persons as may be nominated.

     The Board of Directors of the Company has, subject to shareholder approval,
selected  KPMG Peat Marwick LLP as  the Company's independent public accountants
for the year 1995 and recommends approval of such selection by the shareholders.
KPMG Peat Marwick LLP  served in this  capacity for the year  1994. One or  more
representatives  of  KPMG Peat  Marwick LLP  are expected  to attend  the annual
meeting and will have the opportunity to  make a statement if they desire to  do
so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.
 
           PROPOSAL NO. 3  --  PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE AMENDMENT AND
        RESTATEMENT OF THE KEY EMPLOYEES' DEFERRED COMPENSATION PROGRAM
 
     In  order to further link the compensation of key employees to the value of
the Company's Common  Stock and to  align the interests  of such employees  more
closely  to the  long-term interests  of the  Company and  its shareholders, the
Board of Directors  proposes that  the shareholders  approve the  action of  the
Board  of  Directors  in  amending and  restating  the  Key  Employees' Deferred
Compensation  Program  of  The  Pittston  Company  (the  'Deferred  Compensation
Program').  The purpose of  these amendments is  to encourage long-term employee
investment in equivalents of Services Stock and/or Minerals Stock.
 
     The following  summary  of  the amendments  to  the  Deferred  Compensation
Program  is qualified in its entirety by the  full text of the Program, which is
annexed as Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement.
 
     Pursuant to the existing Deferred Compensation Program, eligible  employees
may  defer (a) receipt of all or any  part of any cash incentive payment awarded
under the Key Employees Incentive Plan of The Pittston Company, (b) up to 50% of
the employee's base salary (determined prior to reduction for any  contributions
made  on a salary reduction basis) and (c)  amounts that are not permitted to be
deferred under  the Savings-Investment  Plan  of The  Pittston Company  and  Its
Subsidiaries  (the 'Savings Plan') as a result of limits imposed by the Code and
have a  matching  contribution  credited  with  respect  to  such  Savings  Plan
deferral.  Such deferred  amounts will  be allocated  as the  participant elects
between amounts to be deferred in the form of Minerals Units ('Minerals  Units')
and/or  Services Units ('Services  Units'). Each unit will  be the equivalent of
one share of Minerals Stock or one share of Services Stock.
 
                                       26
 
<PAGE>
     In order to encourage  eligible employees to  defer incentive payments  and
salary,  it is  proposed that  the Deferred  Compensation Program  be amended to
provide that in  the event of  a deferral  the Company will  provide a  matching
contribution  equal to 100%  of the first 10%  of his or  her (a) cash incentive
payment and (b) salary (earned after June 1, 1995 for the 1995 year), but in  no
event  will the  matching contribution exceed  the amount  deferred. An employee
will be eligible to receive such  matching contributions for a calendar year  if
(a)  his  base salary  as of  the preceding  December  31 is  at least  equal to
$150,000 (subject to adjustments  for years after 1995  to reflect increases  in
the  limitation in effect under Code Section 401(a)(17))  or (b) he or she is so
designated by the Compensation  and Benefits Committee.  A newly hired  employee
will be eligible if his or her base salary (on an annualized basis) in effect on
his  or her initial  date of employment  will exceed the  amount in effect under
Code Section 401(a)(17) for such  year. Such matching contributions credited  on
behalf of an employee employed by a subsidiary in the Pittston Services Group or
the  Pittston Minerals Group shall be  converted into Services Units or Minerals
Units, as the case may be. Such matching contributions allocated on behalf of an
employee of The  Pittston Company  shall be  converted into  Services Units  and
Minerals  Units in the proportion that the fair market value of each of Services
Stock and Minerals Stock bears to the  total fair market value of both  Services
Stock  and Minerals Stock as of the last day of the year for which the incentive
payment was made or in which the deferred salary was earned. Generally, deferral
elections must be filed prior  to the beginning of  the calendar year for  which
the  incentive payment  is made or  the salary  is earned. However,  for 1995, a
participant may file a new deferral election prior to June 1, 1995, if he or she
has not  previously made  a 1995  deferral election  or wishes  to increase  the
percentage  of his incentive  payment or salary  to be deferred.  In the case of
deferred salary, this new election will  apply only to salary earned after  June
1, 1995.
 
     The  Deferred Compensation Program provides that the aggregate value of the
Minerals Stock  and Services  Stock and  cash distributed  to a  participant  in
respect  of all  Units standing  to his or  her credit  in his  or her incentive
account attributable to the deferral of  Incentive Payments and the deferral  of
salary shall not be less than the aggregate amount of Incentive Payments, salary
and  related dividends in  respect of which such  units were initially credited.
This guarantee will  not apply  to Company matching  contributions or  dividends
attributable to such contributions.
 
     Upon  a  participant's  termination of  employment  as a  result  of death,
retirement under a  Company-sponsored pension plan,  disability (as defined)  or
for  any reason within three  years following a Change  in Control (as defined),
the participant shall receive a  distribution of Minerals Stock and/or  Services
Stock  based on a conversion of the  Minerals Units and/or Services Units in his
or her  account to  such shares  of stock  (subject to  the downside  protection
described  in  the preceding  paragraph). Such  stock will  be distributed  in a
single distribution as soon as practicable  following his or her termination  of
employment  unless the participant elects  at least 12 months  before his or her
termination to receive equal annual installments (not more than five) commencing
on the first day of the month following his or her termination of employment.
 
     If a  participant  terminates  his  or her  employment  for  a  reason  not
described in the preceding paragraph, he or she will forfeit the units in his or
her   account  attributable  to  the  matching  incentive  and  matching  salary
contributions (and  related dividends)  for the  year in  which the  termination
occurs.  Such a participant will be vested in  the remaining units in his or her
account attributable to such
 
                                       27

matching incentive  and matching  salary contributions  (and related  dividends)
based on the following schedule:

</TABLE>
 
A  participant shall  receive credit for  one 'month of  participation' for each
calendar month during which an election to defer cash incentive payments  and/or
base  salary is in effect.  Minerals Stock and/or Services  Stock, in respect of
the  vested  units  in  his  or  her  account  attributable  to  such   matching
contributions  (and related dividends) will be distributed to the participant in
a single distribution as soon as practicable following the third anniversary  of
such  termination of employment. The participant  will always be fully vested in
Minerals Stock and/or  Services Stock in  respect of units  not attributable  to
such  matching contributions (and related  dividends) which shall be distributed
as described in the preceding paragraph.
 
     A participant may not make an  in-service withdrawal with respect to  units
attributable  to  matching  incentive  and  matching  salary  contributions (and
related dividends).
 
     The Deferred Compensation Program currently permits an employee whose  base
salary as of the preceding December 31 is at least equal to $150,000 (subject to
adjustment  for calendar years after 1995 to reflect increases in the limitation
in effect under Code Section  401(a)(17)) to defer a  portion of such salary.  A
newly  hired employee may participate in this part  of the Program if his or her
base salary (on an  annualized basis) in  effect on his or  her initial date  of
employment  will exceed the  amount in effect under  Code Section 401(a)(17) for
such year. It is  proposed that the Compensation  and Benefits Committee of  the
Board  of Directors be permitted to  designate specific employees as eligible to
participate in such part of the  program in addition to the employees  described
above.
 
     As  a  result  of nondiscrimination  rules  imposed by  the  Code, matching
contributions that would otherwise  be allocated under the  Savings Plan to  the
accounts  of  certain  highly compensated  participants  may be  required  to be
reduced. Accordingly,  the Deferred  Compensation Program  has been  amended  to
provide that (a) to the extent such matching contribution is nonvested, it shall
be  forfeited and that amount shall be allocated to his or her incentive account
as a  matching  contribution  under  the supplemental  savings  portion  of  the
Deferred Compensation Program or (b) to the extent such matching contribution is
vested, it shall be distributed to the employee, his compensation paid after the
date  of the distribution shall be reduced  by that amount and such amount shall
be allocated to his  or her incentive account  as a matching contribution  under
the  supplemental  savings portion  of  the Deferred  Compensation  Program. The
dollar amount of such matching contribution shall be allocated as of the January
1 next following the year for which the matching contribution was made under the
Savings Plan. Such amount is converted into that number of Minerals Units and/or
Services Units determined by dividing the amount of the matching contribution to
be used to purchase Minerals Units  and/or Services Units, respectively, by  the
average  of the high and  low per share market prices  of the Minerals Stock and
Services Stock, as the case may be,  on the New York Stock Exchange  Transaction
Composite  tape for  each trading  day during the  month of  April following the
January 1 allocation date.

     Participation in  the Program.    The benefits  or  amounts which  will  be
received by or allocated to participants under the Deferred Compensation Program
are  not  determinable  since those  amounts  will depend  upon  future deferral
elections, the allocation of matching  contributions between Minerals Units  and
Services  Units, respectively,  and the  extent to  which a  participant becomes
vested in the  Company's matching  contributions. Nevertheless,  based upon  the
deferral   elections  made  by  the   Company's  executive  officers  and  other
participants  with  respect  to  their  1994  compensation,  had  the   Deferred
Compensation  Program  amendments  been  effective  during  1994,  the following
Company matching contributions would have been made to the following persons  or
groups:  J.  C. Farrell  ($47,500);  G. R.  Spindler  ($26,233); D.  L. Marshall
($7,500); G.  R. Rogliano  ($9,500);  F. T.  Lennon  ($16,425); J.  B.  Hartough
($7,000);  all executive officers  as a group  ($114,158); and all non-executive
officer employees as a group ($123,282).
 
     THE BOARD  OF  DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS  THAT  THE SHAREHOLDERS  VOTE  FOR  THE
APPROVAL OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED DEFERRED COMPENSATION PROGRAM.
 
                               OTHER INFORMATION
 
SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS
 
     To  nominate a director  at the annual meeting,  a shareholder must satisfy
conditions specified  in  the Company's  bylaws.  A shareholder  who  wishes  to
suggest  potential nominees to  the Board of  Directors for consideration should
write to the Secretary of the  Company, stating in detail the qualifications  of
such  nominees for consideration  by the Nominating Committee  of the Board. The
Company's bylaws  also prescribe  the procedures  a shareholder  must follow  to
bring  other business  before annual meetings.  For a shareholder  to nominate a
director or  directors  at the  1996  annual  meeting or  bring  other  business
(including any proposal intended for inclusion in the Company's proxy materials)
before  the 1996 annual  meeting, notice must  be given to  the Secretary of the
Company between October 1, 1995, and December 1, 1995. The notice must include a
description of the proposed  business, the reason for  it, the complete text  of
any resolution and other specified matters.
 
     Any  shareholder desiring a copy of  the Company's bylaws will be furnished
one without charge upon written request to the Secretary.
 
                                 OTHER MATTERS
 
     The cost of this solicitation of proxies  will be borne by the Company.  In
addition to soliciting proxies by mail, directors, officers and employees of the
Company, without receiving additional compensation therefor, may solicit proxies
by  telephone, telegram, in person or by  other means. Arrangements also will be
made with  brokerage firms  and other  custodians, nominees  and fiduciaries  to
forward  proxy solicitation material to the  beneficial owners of Services Stock
and Minerals Stock held of record by such persons and the Company will reimburse
such brokerage  firms,  custodians,  nominees  and  fiduciaries  for  reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection therewith. The Company has
retained  Kissel-Blake Inc. to  perform various proxy  advisory and solicitation
services. The  1995  fee of  Kissel-Blake  Inc.  is currently  estimated  to  be
approximately $14,000, plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses.

                KEY EMPLOYEES' DEFERRED COMPENSATION PROGRAM OF
                              THE PITTSTON COMPANY
                            AS AMENDED AND RESTATED
                               AS OF JUNE 1, 1995
 
                                    PREAMBLE
 
     The  Key Employees' Deferred  Compensation Program of  The Pittston Company
(the 'Program'), as amended and restated as of July 1, 1994, was a  continuation
and  expansion of  the Key  Employees Deferred  Payment Program  of The Pittston
Company. The expanded Program  provided an opportunity  to certain employees  to
defer  receipt of (a) all or part of their cash incentive payments awarded under
the Key Employees Incentive Plan of The Pittston Company; (b) up to 50% of their
base salary; and (c) any or all  amounts that are prevented from being  deferred
as  a matched  contribution (and  the related  matching contribution)  under the
Savings-Investment Plan of The Pittston  Company and Its Subsidiaries  ('Savings
Plan')  as a  result of limitations  imposed by  Sections 401(a)(17), 401(k)(3),
402(g) and 415 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the 'Code').
 
     In order  to  align the  interests  of  participants more  closely  to  the
long-term   interests  of   The  Pittston   Company  (the   'Company')  and  its
shareholders, effective June 1, 1995, the Program is again amended and restated,
to  provide  matching  contributions  with  respect  to  certain  deferred  cash
incentive awards and salary deferrals. In addition, the Program has been amended
to  provide that  an amount  equivalent to  matching contributions  that are not
eligible to be made under the Savings Plan as a result of limitations imposed by
Code Section 401(m)(2)  shall be allocated  under this Program.  The purpose  of
these amendments is to encourage long-term employee investment in equivalents of
common stock of the Company.
 
     The  Program is  an unfunded plan  maintained primarily for  the purpose of
providing deferred  compensation for  a  select group  of management  or  highly
compensated  employees, within  the meaning  of Section  201(2) of  the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
 
                                   ARTICLE I

     more than 20% of the total voting power in the election of directors of the
     Company  of all  classes of Minerals  Stock and  Services Stock outstanding
     (exclusive  of  shares  held  by  the  Company's  Subsidiaries  or  Foreign
     Subsidiaries)  pursuant  to a  tender offer,  exchange  offer or  series of
     purchases or other acquisitions, or any combination of those  transactions,
     or (b) there shall be a change in the composition of the Board of Directors
     of  the  Company at  any  time within  two  years after  any  tender offer,
     exchange  offer,  merger,  consolidation,  sale  of  assets  or   contested
     election,  or any combination  of those transactions  (a 'Transaction'), so
     that (i) the persons who were  directors of the Company immediately  before
     the  first such Transaction cease to constitute  a majority of the Board of
     Directors of the corporation  which shall thereafter be  in control of  the

                                   ARTICLE II
                                 ADMINISTRATION
 
     SECTION 1.  Authorized Shares.  The maximum  number of  Units that  may  be
credited  hereunder is  100,000 Minerals Units  and 250,000  Services Units. The
number of  Shares of  each class  that may  be issued  or otherwise  distributed

credited hereunder.
 
     In the event of any change in the number of shares of Minerals Stock and/or

provisions of the Program and to make all determinations in connection with  the
administration  of the Program including, but  not limited to, the Employees who
are eligible to participate in the  benefits provided under Articles III or  IV.
All  such determinations  made by the  Committee shall be  final, conclusive and

                                  ARTICLE III
                      DEFERRAL OF CASH INCENTIVE PAYMENTS
 
     SECTION 1. Definitions. Whenever  used in this  Article III, the  following
terms shall have the meanings indicated:
 
          Cash  Incentive  Payment:  A  cash  incentive  payment  awarded  to an
     Employee for any Year under the Incentive Plan.
 
          Incentive Plan:  The  Key Employees  Incentive  Plan of  The  Pittston
     Company, as in effect from time to time or any successor thereto.
 
          Matching  Incentive Contributions: Matching contributions allocated to

Incentive Payments for any Year pursuant to this Article III.
 
                                       3
 
<PAGE>
     An Employee  designated  to participate  in  this portion  of  the  Program
pursuant  to the  preceding paragraph  shall be  eligible to  receive a Matching
Incentive Contribution for a  Year if (a)  his or her  Salary (on an  annualized
basis)  as  of the  preceding  December 31  is at  least  equal to  $150,000 (as
adjusted for Years  after 1995 to  reflect the limitation  in effect under  Code
Section  401(a)(17) for the Year in which the Employee's election to participate
is filed) or (b) he  or she is so  designated by the Committee.  Notwithstanding
the  foregoing, a newly  hired Employee will  be eligible to  receive a Matching
Incentive Contribution for his or her initial  Year of employment if his or  her
Salary  (on an annualized basis) in effect on his or her first day of employment
with the Company  or a Subsidiary  will exceed the  threshold amount  determined
pursuant  to Code  Section 401(a)(17)  for his or  her initial  calendar year of
employment.
 
     SECTION 3.  Deferral of  Cash Incentive  Payments. Each  Employee whom  the
Committee  has selected to be eligible to defer a Cash Incentive Payment for any
Year pursuant to this Article III may make an election to defer all or part  (in
multiples  of 10%) of any Cash Incentive Payment which may be made to him or her
for such Year.  Such Employee's election  for any  Year shall be  made prior  to
January  1 of such Year; provided, however,  that with respect to the 1995 Year,
an Employee  who  is  eligible  to receive  a  Matching  Incentive  Contribution
pursuant  to Section 2  of this Article III  may make such  election at any time
prior to June 1, 1995,  for Cash Incentive Payments paid  for 1995 if he or  she
(a)  has  not previously  made a  deferral election  for 1995  or (b)  wishes to
increase the  percentage  of his  Cash  Incentive  Payment to  be  deferred.  An
Incentive  Account (which may be the same Incentive Account established pursuant
to Articles IV  and/or V)  shall be established  for each  Employee making  such
election and Units in respect of such deferred payment shall be credited to such
Incentive Account as provided in Section 7 below.
 
     SECTION  4. Matching Incentive Contributions.  Effective for the 1995 Year,
each Employee  who  is  eligible to  receive  Matching  Incentive  Contributions
pursuant  to  Section 2  of this  Article  III shall  have a  Matching Incentive
Contribution allocated to his or her Incentive Account. Such Matching  Incentive
Contribution  shall be equal to the amount  of his or her Cash Incentive Payment
that he or she has elected to defer but not in excess of 10% of his or her  Cash
Incentive  Payment.  The dollar  amount  of each  Employee's  Matching Incentive
Contributions shall  be credited  to his  or  her Incentive  Account as  of  the
January 1 next following the Year in respect of which the Cash Incentive Payment
was  made. Units in respect of such  amounts shall be credited to such Incentive
Account as provided in Section 7 below.
 
     SECTION 5.  Allocation  of  Deferred Amounts  Between  Minerals  Units  and
Services  Units. Unless the Committee determines otherwise prior to the November
15 next preceding any Year, each Employee  who elects to defer a Cash  Incentive
Payment  shall specify  in his deferral  election what portion  (in multiples of
10%) of such deferred  Cash Incentive Payment shall  be converted into  Minerals
Units  and Services  Units in  accordance with  Section 7  of this  Article III.
Notice of any  determination by the  Committee pursuant to  this Section 5  with
respect  to any Year shall  be given prior to December  15 of the next preceding
Year to each Employee  participating in the benefits  provided pursuant to  this
Article III for such Year.
 
     Matching Incentive Contributions credited on behalf of an Employee employed
by  a Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary in  the (a) Pittston Services Group shall
be converted  into  Services Units  or  (b)  Pittston Minerals  Group  shall  be
converted   into  Minerals   Units  in  accordance   with  Section   7  of  this
 
                                       4
 
<PAGE>
Article III. Matching Incentive Contributions credited on behalf of an  Employee
employed by the Company will be converted into Services Units and Minerals Units
in  the proportion that  the average of the  high and low  per share quoted sale
prices of each  of Services Stock  and Minerals Stock,  as the case  may be,  as
reported  on the New  York Stock Exchange  Composite Transaction Tape  as of the
last day of the Year in respect  of which the underlying Cash Incentive  Payment
was made bears to the combined average price of both such stocks on such date.
 
     SECTION  6. Irrevocability of Election. Except  as provided in Section 3 of
this Article  III,  an  election  to  defer  Cash  Incentive  Payments  and  the
allocation  of the  deferred amounts between  Minerals Units  and Services Units
under the Program for any Year shall be irrevocable after the first day of  such
Year.
 
     SECTION  7. Conversion to Units. The  amount of an Employee's deferred Cash
Incentive Payment (and  related Matching  Incentive Contribution)  for any  Year
shall  be converted to  Services Units and/or Minerals  Units in accordance with
such Employee's election for such Year and shall be credited to such  Employee's
Incentive  Account as  of the January  1 next  following the Year  in respect of
which the Cash Incentive  Payment was made. The  number (computed to the  second
decimal  place)  of  Units  so  credited shall  be  determined  by  dividing the
aggregate amount  of  deferred  Cash  Incentive  Payment  and  related  Matching
Incentive  Contribution credited  to the  Employee's Incentive  Account for such
Year by the average of the high and low per share quoted sale prices of Services
Stock or Minerals Stock, as the case may  be, as reported on the New York  Stock
Exchange  Composite Transaction  Tape on  each trading  day during  the month of
December of the Year immediately prior to the crediting of Units.
 
     SECTION 8.  Adjustments.  The  Committee  shall  determine  such  equitable
adjustments  in  the  Units  credited  to  each  Incentive  Account  as  may  be
appropriate to  reflect  any  stock  split,  stock  dividend,  recapitalization,
merger,  consolidation,  reorganization,  combination,  or  exchange  of shares,
split-up,  split-off,  spin-off,   liquidation  or  other   similar  change   in
capitalization,   any  distribution  to  common  shareholders  other  than  cash
dividends or any exchange of Minerals Stock for Services Stock.
 
     SECTION 9. Dividends  and Distributions.  Whenever a cash  dividend or  any
other  distribution is paid with respect to shares of Minerals Stock or Services
Stock, the  Incentive  Account  of  each  Employee  will  be  credited  with  an
additional number of Minerals Units and/or Services Units equal to the number of
Minerals  Shares and Services  Shares, including fractional  shares (computed to
the second decimal place), that could  have been purchased had such dividend  or
other  distribution been paid to  the Incentive Account on  the payment date for
such dividend or distribution based on the number of shares of the class  giving
rise  to the  dividend or  distribution represented  by Units  in such Incentive
Account as of such  date and assuming  the amount of such  dividend or value  of
such  distribution had been used to acquire additional Units of the class giving
rise to  the dividend  or other  distribution. Such  additional Units  shall  be
deemed  to be purchased at the average of the high and low per share quoted sale
prices of Services Stock or Minerals Stock,  as the case may be, as reported  on
the  New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction  Tape on the payment date for
the dividend or other  distribution. The value of  any distribution in  property
will be determined by the Committee.
 
     SECTION 10. Allocation of Units as of July 1, 1994. As of July 1, 1994, the
number  of Units credited to  an Employee's Incentive Account  shall be equal to
the number of Units credited to his Incentive Account as of June 30, 1994, under
the Key Employees Deferred Payment Program of The Pittston Company.
 
                                       5
 
<PAGE>
     SECTION 11. Minimum Distribution. Distributions shall be made in accordance
with Article VI;  provided, however, that  the aggregate value  of the  Minerals
Stock  and/or Services Stock and cash distributed to an Employee (and his or her
beneficiaries) in respect of all Units standing  to his or her credit in his  or
her  Incentive  Account attributable  to  deferrals of  Cash  Incentive Payments
(including related dividends but not Matching Incentive Contributions) shall not
be less  than the  aggregate amount  of Cash  Incentive Payments  and  dividends
(credited  to his Incentive Account  pursuant to Section 9)  in respect of which
such Units  were initially  so credited.  The value  of the  Minerals Stock  and
Services  Stock so distributed shall  be considered equal to  the average of the
high and low  per share  quoted sale prices  of Services  Stock and/or  Minerals
Stock,  as the case may be, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite
Transaction Tape for the last  trading day of the  month preceding the month  of
distribution.
 
                                   ARTICLE IV
                               DEFERRAL OF SALARY
 
     SECTION  1. Definitions.  Wherever used in  this Article  IV, the following
term shall have the meaning indicated:
 
          Matching Salary Contributions: Matching contributions allocated to  an
     Employee's Incentive Account pursuant to Section 4 of this Article IV.
 
     SECTION  2.  Eligibility.  An  Employee  may  participate  in  the benefits
provided pursuant to this Article IV for any  Year if (a) his or her Salary  (on
an annualized basis) as of the preceding December 31 (June 30 for the 1994 year)
is  at least equal to $150,000 (as adjusted  for Years after 1994 to reflect the
limitation in effect  under Code Section  401(a)(17) for the  Year in which  the
Employee's  election to participate is filed) or  (b) he or she is designated by
the Committee as eligible to participate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a newly
hired Employee is eligible to defer a portion of his or her Salary during his or
her initial Year of employment if his or her Salary (on an annualized basis)  in
effect  on his or her  first day of employment with  the Company or a Subsidiary
will exceed the threshold amount determined pursuant to Code Section  401(a)(17)
for his or her initial calendar year of employment.
 
     Except  as otherwise provided by the Committee, an Employee who is eligible
to defer a portion of his or her Salary shall continue to be so eligible  unless
his  or her Salary for any Year (on  an annualized basis) is less than $150,000,
in which case  he or  she shall  be ineligible  to participate  in the  benefits
provided  under  this Article  IV  until his  or  her Salary  again  exceeds the
threshold amount determined  pursuant to  Code Section 401(a)(17)  for the  Year
prior to the Year of participation.
 
     SECTION  3.  Deferral of  Salary. Each  Employee who  is eligible  to defer
Salary for any Year pursuant to this Article IV may elect to defer up to 50% (in
multiples of 5%) of his or her Salary for such Year; provided, however, that  in
the case of a newly hired Employee who is eligible to participate for his or her
initial  Year of  employment, only up  to 50% of  Salary earned after  he or she
files a deferral election  with the Committee may  be deferred. Such  Employee's
initial  election for any Year shall be made prior to the first day of such Year
or within  30 days  after  his or  her initial  date  of employment,  if  later;
provided,  however, that with respect to the 1995 Year, an eligible Employee may
make such  election at  any  time prior  to June  1,  1995, if  he (a)  has  not
previously made a deferral election under this Article IV for 1995 or (b) wishes
to  increase the percentage of his Salary to be deferred for 1995. Such election
 
                                       6
 
<PAGE>
under (a)  or (b)  shall apply  only to  Salary earned  after June  1, 1995.  An
election  to defer Salary shall remain in effect for subsequent Years unless and
until a new election is  filed with the Committee  by the December 31  preceding
the  Year for which  the new election  is to be  effective. An Incentive Account
(which may be the  same Incentive Account established  pursuant to Articles  III
and/or  V) shall be established for each  Employee making such election and such
Incentive Account shall be credited  as of the last day  of each month with  the
dollar amount of deferred Salary for such month pursuant to such election. Units
in  respect  of such  amounts shall  be  credited to  such Incentive  Account as
provided in Section 7 below.
 
     SECTION 4.  Matching Salary  Contributions. Effective  June 1,  1995,  each
Employee  who has  deferred a percentage  of his  Salary for a  Year pursuant to
Section 2 of this Article IV shall have Matching Salary Contributions  allocated
to  his or  her Incentive Account.  Such Matching Salary  Contributions shall be
equal to 100% of the first 10% of his Salary that he or she has elected to defer
for the Year (earned after June 1,  1995, for the 1995 Year). The dollar  amount
of each Employee's Matching Salary Contributions shall be credited to his or her
Incentive  Account as of  the last day of  each month. Units  in respect of such
amounts shall be  credited to such  Incentive Account as  provided in Section  7
below.
 
     SECTION  5.  Allocation  of  Deferred  Salary  Between  Minerals  Units and
Services Units. Unless the Committee otherwise determines prior to the  November
15  next preceding any Year, each Employee who  elects to defer a portion of his
or her Salary shall specify what portion (in multiples of 10%) of such  deferred
Salary  shall be converted into Minerals  Units and Services Units in accordance
with Section 7 of this Article IV. Notice of any determination by the  Committee
pursuant  to this  Section 5 with  respect to any  Year shall be  given prior to
December 15 of  the next preceding  Year to each  Employee participating in  the
benefits provided pursuant to this Article IV for such Year.
 
     Matching Salary Contributions credited on behalf of an Employee employed by
a  Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary in the  (a) Pittston Services Group shall be
converted into Services Units or (b) Pittston Minerals Group shall be  converted
into  Minerals Units in accordance  with Section 7 of  this Article IV. Matching
Incentive Contributions  credited  on behalf  of  an Employee  employed  by  the
Company  will  be  converted  into  Services Units  and  Minerals  Units  in the
proportion that the average of the high and low per share quoted sale prices  of
each  of Services Stock and  Minerals Stock, as the case  may be, as reported on
the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape as of the last day of the
year in which the deferred Salary was earned bears to the combined average price
of both such stocks on such date.
 
     SECTION 6. Irrevocability of Election. Except  as provided in Section 3  of
this  Article IV, an election to defer Salary and the allocation of the deferred
Salary between Minerals Units and Services Units under the Program for any  Year
shall be irrevocable after the first day of such Year or after 30 days after his
or her initial date of employment, if later.
 
     SECTION 7. Conversion to Units. The amount of an Employee's deferred Salary
(and  related Matching Salary Contributions) for  any Year shall be converted to
Services Units and/or Minerals Units in accordance with such Employee's election
for such Year and shall be credited  to such Employee's Incentive Account as  of
the  January 1  next following  the Year  in which  such Salary  was earned. The
number (computed to  the second  decimal place) of  Units so  credited shall  be
determined  by dividing  the aggregate amount  of all such  deferred Salary (and
related Matching Salary Contributions) credited
 
                                       7
 
<PAGE>
to his or her Incentive Account for such Year by the average of the high and low
per share quoted sale prices  of Services Stock or  Minerals Stock, as the  case
may  be, as reported on  the New York Stock  Exchange Composite Transaction Tape
for each trading day during the Year immediately prior to the crediting of Units
(or in the case of an Employee who elected to participate in this portion of the
Program effective June 1,  1995, the period from  June 1, 1995 through  December
31, 1995).
 
     In  addition,  an  additional  number  of Units  shall  be  credited  to an
Employee's Incentive Account as of the January 1 next following such Year in the
event a  dividend  or other  distribution  is paid  with  respect to  shares  of
Minerals Stock or Services Stock during the Year. The number of additional Units
shall  be equal to the number of  Minerals Shares and Services Shares, including
fractional shares (computed to the second  decimal place), that could have  been
purchased if (a) the number of Minerals Units and Services Units credited to the
Employee's  Incentive Account for  the Year pursuant  to the preceding paragraph
had been  credited  ratably throughout  the  Year,  (b) the  dividend  or  other
distribution had been paid to the Incentive Account on the payment date based on
the  number of Shares of the class  giving rise to such dividend or distribution
represented by the Units credited pursuant to (a) above had a ratable number  of
Units been credited on the record date for the dividend or distribution, and (c)
such  dividend  or the  value  of such  distribution  had been  used  to acquire
additional Units of the class giving rise to the dividend or other distribution.
Such additional Units shall be deemed to be purchased at the average of the high
and low per share quoted sale prices of Services Stock or Minerals Stock, as the
case may be, as  reported on the New  York Stock Exchange Composite  Transaction
Tape  on the payment date  for the dividend or  other distribution. The value of
any distribution in property will be determined by the Committee.
 
     Upon the  Employee's  termination  of  employment,  any  cash  amounts  not
converted  into Units credited to his or  her Incentive Account in dollars shall
be converted into Services  Units and/or Minerals Units  in accordance with  the
Employee's  election for the Year of termination  in the manner described in the
first paragraph of this Section  6 based on the  quoted sale prices of  Services
Stock  or Minerals Stock, as the case may  be, as reported on the New York Stock
Exchange Composite Transaction Tape for each  trading day during the portion  of
the  Year preceding the month of  termination. Such Employee's Incentive Account
shall also  be credited  with  an additional  number of  Units  in the  event  a
dividend  or other distribution is paid with respect to shares of Minerals Stock
or Services Stock during the Year prior to his or her termination of employment.
The additional number of Units shall be determined in accordance with the second
paragraph of  this Section  7 assuming  that the  number of  Minerals Units  and
Services  Units credited to  his or her  Incentive Account during  the Year as a
result of his or her termination of employment had been credited ratably  during
the portion of the Year preceding his or her termination.
 
     SECTION  8.  Adjustments.  The  Committee  shall  determine  such equitable
adjustments  in  the  Units  credited  to  each  Incentive  Account  as  may  be
appropriate  to  reflect  any  stock  split,  stock  dividend, recapitalization,
merger, consolidation,  reorganization,  combination,  or  exchange  of  shares,
split-up,   split-off,  spin-off,   liquidation  or  other   similar  change  in
capitalization, or  any  distribution to  common  shareholders other  than  cash
dividends or any exchange of Minerals Stock for Services Stock.
 
     SECTION  9. Dividends  and Distributions. Whenever  a cash  dividend or any
other distribution is paid with respect to shares of Minerals Stock or  Services
Stock,  the  Incentive  Account  of  each  Employee  will  be  credited  with an
additional number of Minerals Units and/or Services Units equal to the number of
 
                                       8
 
<PAGE>
Minerals Shares and  Services Shares, including  fractional shares (computed  to
the  second decimal place), that could have  been purchased had such dividend or
other distribution been paid  to the Incentive Account  on the payment date  for
such  dividend or distribution based on the number of shares of the class giving
rise to the dividend or distribution represented by the Units in such  Incentive
Account  as of such  date and assuming the  amount of such  dividend or value of
such distribution had been used to acquire additional Units of the class  giving
rise  to  the dividend  or other  distribution. Such  additional Units  shall be
deemed to be purchased at the average of the high and low per share quoted  sale
prices  of Services Stock or Minerals Stock, as  the case may be, as reported on
the New York Stock Exchange Composite  Transaction Tape on the payment date  for
the  dividend or other  distribution. The value of  any distribution in property
will be determined by the Committee.
 
     SECTION 10. Minimum Distribution. Distributions shall be made in accordance
with Article VI; provided,  however, the aggregate value  of the Minerals  Stock
and/or  Services  Stock and  cash distributed  to  an Employee  (and his  or her
beneficiaries) in respect of all Units standing  to his or her credit in his  or
her  Incentive Account attributable to the deferral of Salary (including related
dividends but not  Matching Salary  Contributions) shall  not be  less than  the
aggregate  amount of Salary  and dividends in  respect of which  such Units were
initially so credited.  The value of  the Minerals Stock  and Services Stock  so
distributed  shall be considered  equal to the  average of the  high and low per
share quoted sale prices  of Services Stock and/or  Minerals Stock, as the  case
may  be, as reported on  the New York Stock  Exchange Composite Transaction Tape
for the last trading day of the month preceding the month of distribution.
 
                                   ARTICLE V
                           SUPPLEMENTAL SAVINGS PLAN
 
     SECTION 1.  Definitions. Whenever  used in  this Article  V, the  following
terms shall have the meanings indicated:
 
          Compensation:  The regular wages received during  any pay period by an
     Employee while a participant in the  Savings Plan for services rendered  to
     the  Company  or  any Subsidiary  that  participates in  the  Savings Plan,
     including any commissions or bonuses, but excluding any overtime or premium
     pay, living or other expense allowances, or contributions by the Company or
     such Subsidiaries  to any  plan of  deferred compensation,  and  determined
     without  regard to the  application of any  salary reduction election under
     the Savings Plan.  Bonuses paid  pursuant to  the Incentive  Plan shall  be
     considered  received in the Year  in which they are  payable whether or not
     such bonus is deferred pursuant to Article III hereof.
 
          Incentive Plan:  The  Key Employees  Incentive  Plan of  The  Pittston
     Company, as in effect from time to time or any successor thereto.
 
          Matching  Contributions: Amounts allocated  to an Employee's Incentive
     Account pursuant to Section 4 of this Article V.
 
          Savings Plan: The Savings-Investment Plan of The Pittston Company  and
     Its Subsidiaries, as in effect from time to time.
 
     SECTION  2.  Eligibility.  An  Employee  may  participate  in  the benefits
provided pursuant to this  Article V for any  Year if his or  her Salary (or  an
annualized basis) as of the preceding December 31
 
                                       9
 
<PAGE>
(June 30 for the 1994 Year) is at least equal to $150,000 (as adjusted for Years
after 1994 to reflect the limitation in effect under Code Section 401(a)(17) for
the   Year  in  which   the  Employee's  election   to  participate  is  filed).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a newly hired Employee is eligible to participate
in the benefits provided pursuant to this Article V if his or her Salary (on  an
annualized  basis) in  effect on  his or  her first  day of  employment with the
Company or a Subsidiary will exceed the threshold amount determined pursuant  to
Code Section 401(a)(17) for his or her initial calendar year of employment.
 
     Except  as otherwise provided by the Committee, an Employee who is eligible
to participate  in  the benefits  provided  pursuant  to this  Article  V  shall
continue  to be so eligible unless  his or her Salary for  any Year is less than
$150,000, in which  case he or  she shall  be ineligible to  participate in  the
benefits provided under this Article V until his or her Salary again exceeds the
threshold  amount determined  pursuant to Code  Section 401(a)(17)  for the Year
prior to the Year of participation.
 
     SECTION 3. Deferral of Compensation. Effective July 1, 1994, each  Employee
who  is not permitted to defer the maximum percentage of his or her Compensation
that may be contributed as a matched contribution under the Savings Plan for any
Year as  a result  of  limitations imposed  by Sections  401(a)(17),  401(k)(3),
402(g)  and/or 415 of the Code  may elect to defer all  or part of the excess of
(a) such maximum percentage (five percent  for 1994) of his or her  Compensation
for  the calendar year (without regard to  any limitation on such amount imposed
by Code Section 401(a)(17)) over (b)  the amount actually contributed on his  or
her  behalf  under  the  Savings  Plan  for  such  calendar  year  as  a matched
contribution; provided,  however,  that with  respect  to the  1994  Year,  only
Compensation  paid after July 1, 1994, may be deferred. In order to be permitted
to defer any portion of  his or her Compensation pursuant  to this Section 3  of
Article  V, the Employee must  elect to defer the  maximum amount permitted as a
matched contribution  for  the  calendar  year  under  the  Savings  Plan.  Such
Employee's  initial election hereunder for  any Year shall be  made prior to the
first day of such Year or prior to the date on which he or she is first eligible
to participate in  the Savings  Plan, if later.  Such election  shall remain  in
effect  for subsequent Years unless  and until a new  election is filed with the
Committee by the December 31 preceding the Year for which the new election is to
be effective. An  Incentive Account  (which may  be the  same Incentive  Account
established  pursuant to  Article III and/or  IV) shall be  established for each
Employee making such election and such Incentive Account shall be credited as of
the last day of each month with  the dollar amount of the Compensation  deferred
for  such month pursuant to such election;  provided, however, that in the event
an Employee is  not permitted  to defer  the maximum  percentage of  his or  her
Compensation that may be contributed as a matched contribution under the Savings
Plan  for  any  year as  a  result of  the  limitation imposed  by  Code Section
401(k)(3), such excess contribution  shall be distributed  to the Employee,  his
Compensation  paid after the date  of the distribution shall  be reduced by that
amount and such amount  shall be allocated  to his Incentive  Account as of  the
January  1 next following  the Year for  which the excess  contribution was made
under the Savings Plan. Units  in respect of such  amounts shall be credited  to
such Incentive Account as provided in Section 7 below.
 
     SECTION  4. Matching  Contributions. Each  Employee who  elects to  defer a
portion of his  or her Compensation  for a Year  pursuant to Section  3 of  this
Article  V shall have a Matching Contribution  allocated to his or her Incentive
Account equal to the rate of matching contributions in effect for such  Employee
under  the Savings  Plan for such  Year multiplied  by the amount  elected to be
deferred pursuant to Section  3 above for  each month in  such Year. The  dollar
amount of each Employee's
 
                                       10
 
<PAGE>
Matching  Contributions for each month shall be credited to his or her Incentive
Account as of the last day of each month.
 
     Subject to the  approval of  the shareholders of  the Company  at the  1995
annual  meeting, if an Employee is participating  in this portion of the Program
pursuant to Section 2  of this Article  V and his  or her matching  contribution
under the Savings Plan for 1994 or any later year will be reduced as a result of
the  nondiscrimination  test contained  in Code  Section  401(m)(2), (a)  to the
extent such matching contribution is forfeitable, it shall be forfeited and that
amount shall  be  allocated  to his  or  her  Incentive Account  as  a  Matching
Contribution or (b) to the extent such matching contribution is not forfeitable,
it shall be distributed to the Employee, his Compensation paid after the date of
the  distribution  shall be  reduced by  that  amount and  such amount  shall be
allocated to his or her Incentive Account as a Matching Contribution. The dollar
amount of  such Matching  Contribution  shall be  allocated to  each  Employee's
Incentive  Account as  of the January  1 next  following the Year  for which the
matching contribution was made under the Savings Plan. Units in respect of  such
contribution  shall be credited to the  Employee's Incentive Account as provided
in Section 7 below.
 
     SECTION 5.  Allocation  of  Deferred Amounts  Between  Minerals  Units  and
Services  Units. Unless the Committee otherwise determines prior to the November
15 next preceding any Year, each Employee who elects to defer Compensation shall
specify  in  his  or  her  deferral  election  what  portion  of  such  deferred
Compensation  shall be converted  (in multiples of 10%)  into Minerals Units and
Services Units  in  accordance  with  Section 7  of  this  Article  V.  Matching
Contributions  shall be allocated  between Minerals Units  and Services Units in
the same proportion as deferrals of Compensation. Notice of any determination by
the Committee pursuant to this Section 5 with respect to any Year shall be given
prior to December 15 of the  next preceding Year to each Employee  participating
in the benefits provided pursuant to this Article V for such Year.
 
     SECTION 6. Irrevocability of Election. An election to defer amounts and the
allocation  of the  deferred amounts  between Mineral  Units and  Services Units
under the Program for any Year shall be irrevocable after the first day of  such
Year or prior to the date on which he or she is first eligible to participate in
the Savings Plan, if later.
 
     SECTION  7.  Conversion  to Units.  The  amount of  an  Employee's deferred
Compensation and  Matching Contributions  for  any Year  shall be  converted  to
Services Units and/or Minerals Units in accordance with such Employee's election
for  such Year and shall be credited  to such Employee's Incentive Account as of
the January 1 next following the Year  in which such Compensation was earned  or
for which the Matching Contribution was made. The number (computed to the second
decimal  place)  of  Units  so  credited shall  be  determined  by  dividing the
aggregate amount  of  all such  amounts  credited to  the  Employee's  Incentive
Account  for such Year attributable to (a) the deferral of amounts awarded under
the Incentive Plan (including related Matching Contributions) by the average  of
the  high and  low per share  quoted sale  prices of Services  Stock or Minerals
Stock, as the case may be, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange  Composite
Transaction  Tape on each trading  day during the month  of December of the Year
immediately prior to the crediting of such Units, (b) Compensation and  Matching
Contributions  allocated  to an  Incentive  Account as  a  result of  failing to
satisfy the tests  included in Code  Sections 401(k)(3) or  401(m)(2) under  the
Savings Plan by the average of the high and low per share quoted sales prices of
Services  Stock or Minerals  Stock, as the case  may be, as  reported on the New
York Stock Exchange Composite  Transaction Tape on each  trading day during  the
month of
 
                                       11
 
<PAGE>
April  of the year in which such  Units are credited to the Employee's Incentive
Account and  (c)  the deferral  of  all other  Compensation  (including  related
Matching Contributions) by the average of the high and low per share quoted sale
prices  of Services Stock or Minerals Stock, as  the case may be, as reported on
the New York Stock Exchange Composite  Transaction Tape (i) on each trading  day
during  the period commencing on the first day of the month after the Employee's
salary (as such term is defined in  the Savings Plan) equals the maximum  amount
of considered compensation for such Year pursuant to Code Section 401(a)(17) and
ending  on December  31 or (ii)  in the  event the Employee's  salary equals the
maximum amount of considered compensation in December, on the first trading  day
in the following January.
 
     In  addition,  an  additional  number  of Units  shall  be  credited  to an
Employee's Incentive Account as of  the January 1 of  the following Year in  the
event  a  dividend or  other  distribution is  paid  with respect  to  shares of
Minerals Stock or Services Stock during the Year. The number of additional Units
shall be equal to the number  of Minerals Shares and Services Shares,  including
fractional  shares (computed to the second  decimal place), that could have been
purchased if (a) the number of Minerals Units and Services Units credited to the
Employee's Incentive Account, for the  Year pursuant to the preceding  paragraph
had  been credited ratably throughout the portion  of the Year commencing on the
first day of the month  after the Employee's salary  (as defined in the  Savings
Plan)  equals  the  maximum  amount of  considered  compensation  for  such Year
pursuant to Code Section 401(a)(17), (b) the dividend or other distribution  had
been  paid to the Incentive  Account on the payment date  based on the number of
shares of the class giving rise to such dividend or distribution represented  by
the  Units credited  pursuant to (a)  above had  a ratable number  of Units been
credited on  the record  date for  the dividend  or distribution,  and (c)  such
dividend  or the value of such distribution  had been used to acquire additional
Units of  the class  giving rise  to the  dividend or  other distribution.  Such
additional  Units shall be deemed to be purchased at the average of the high and
low per share quoted  sale prices of  Services Stock or  Minerals Stock, as  the
case  may be, as reported  on the New York  Stock Exchange Composite Transaction
Tape on the payment date  for the dividend or  other distribution. The value  of
any distribution in property will be determined by the Committee.
 
     Upon  the  Employee's  termination  of  employment,  any  cash  amounts not
converted into Units credited to his  or her Incentive Account in dollars  shall
be  converted into Services  Units and/or Minerals Units  in accordance with the
Employee's election for the Year of  termination in the manner described in  the
first  paragraph of this Section  7 based on the  quoted sale prices of Services
Stock or Minerals Stock, as the case may  be, as reported on the New York  Stock
Exchange  Composite Transaction Tape for each  trading day during the portion of
the Year preceding the month  of termination. Such Employee's Incentive  Account
shall  also  be credited  with  an additional  number of  Units  in the  event a
dividend or other distribution is paid with respect to shares of Minerals  Stock
or Services Stock during the Year prior to his or her termination of employment.
The additional number of Units shall be determined in accordance with the second
paragraph  of this  Section 7  assuming that  the number  of Minerals  Units and
Services Units credited to  his or her  Incentive Account during  the Year as  a
result  of his or her termination of employment had been credited ratably during
the portion of the Year preceding his or her termination.
 
     SECTION 8.  Adjustments.  The  Committee  shall  determine  such  equitable
adjustments  in  the  Units  credited  to  each  Incentive  Account  as  may  be
appropriate to  reflect  any  stock  split,  stock  dividend,  recapitalization,

split-off, spin-off, liquidation or other similar change in capitalization,  any
distribution to common shareholders other than cash dividends or any exchange of
Minerals Stock for Services Stock.
 
     SECTION  9. Dividends  and Distributions. Whenever  a cash  dividend or any
other distribution is paid with respect to shares of Minerals Stock or  Services
Stock,  the  Incentive  Account  of  each  Employee  will  be  credited  with an
additional number of Minerals Units and/or Services Units equal to the number of
Minerals Shares and  Services Shares, including  fractional shares (computed  to
the  second decimal place), that could have  been purchased had such dividend or
other distribution been paid  to the Incentive Account  on the payment date  for
such  dividend or distribution based on the number of shares of the class giving
rise to the  dividend or  other distribution represented  by the  Units in  such
Incentive  Account as of such date and assuming that the amount of such dividend
or value of such distribution had been  used to acquire additional Units of  the
class  giving rise to the dividend  or other distribution. Such additional Units
shall be deemed to  be purchased at the  average of the high  and low per  share
quoted  sale prices of Services Stock or Minerals  Stock, as the case may be, as
reported on  the New  York  Stock Exchange  Composite  Transaction Tape  on  the
payment  date  for  the  dividend  or  other  distribution.  The  value  of  any
distribution in property will be determined by the Committee.
 
                                   ARTICLE VI
                                 DISTRIBUTIONS
 
     SECTION 1. Certain Payments on Termination of Employment. Each Employee who
has an Incentive Account shall receive  a distribution in Minerals Stock  and/or
Services  Stock,  in  respect  of  all Units  standing  to  the  credit  of such
Employee's  Incentive  Account  (other  than  Units  attributable  to   Matching
Incentive  Contributions,  Matching Salary  Contributions and  dividends related
thereto), in a single lump-sum distribution as soon as practicable following his
or her termination of employment; provided, however, that an Employee may elect,
at least 12  months prior to  his or  her termination of  employment to  receive
distribution  of the  Shares represented  by the  Units credited  to his  or her
Incentive Account in equal annual  installments (not more than five)  commencing
on  the first day of the month next following the date of his or her termination
of employment  (whether by  death, disability,  retirement or  otherwise) or  as
promptly  as  practicable thereafter.  Such Employee  may at  any time  elect to
change the manner of such  payment, provided that any  such election is made  at
least 12 months in advance of his or her termination of employment.
 
     The number of shares of Minerals Stock and/or Services Stock to be included
in  each installment  payment shall be  determined by multiplying  the number of
Minerals Units and/or  Stock Units,  respectively, in  the Employee's  Incentive
Account as of the 1st day of the month preceding the initial installment payment
and  as of each succeeding anniversary of such date by a fraction, the numerator
or which  is  one and  the  denominator of  which  is the  number  of  remaining
installments  (including the current installment). Any fractional Units shall be
converted to cash based on the average of the high and low per share quoted sale
prices of the Services Stock or Minerals Stock, as the case may be, as  reported
on  the New York Stock Exchange Composite  Transaction Tape, on the last trading
day of the month preceding the month of distribution and shall be paid in cash.
 
     SECTION 2. Payments  Attributable to Matching  Incentive Contributions  and
Matching  Salary Contributions on Termination of Employment. In the event of the
termination of  employment  of  an  Employee  as a  result  of  (a)  death,  (b)
retirement   after   satisfying   the   requirements   for   early   or   normal
 
                                       13
 
<PAGE>
retirement under a  pension plan  sponsored by the  Company or  a Subsidiary  in
which  the Employee participated, (c) total and permanent disability (as defined
in the Company's long-term disability plan) or (d) termination of employment for
any reason within three years following a Change in Control, the Employee  shall
receive  a distribution of  Minerals Stock and/or Services  Stock, in respect of
all  Units  standing  to  the  credit  of  such  Employee's  Incentive   Account
attributable  to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions
and dividends related thereto  in the same  manner as provided  in Section 1  of
this  Article VI for the  distribution of other Units  standing to the credit of
such Employee's Incentive Account.
 
     In the event of a termination of  employment for a reason not described  in
the  preceding paragraph,  the Employee  shall forfeit the  Units in  his or her
Incentive Account  attributable to  Matching Incentive  Contributions,  Matching
Salary  Contributions and  dividends related thereto  for the Year  in which the
termination occurs.  Such  Employee  shall  be vested  in  the  remaining  Units
standing  to  the  credit of  such  Employee  in his  or  her  Incentive Account
attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary  Contributions
and dividends related thereto in accordance with the following schedule:

An  Employee  shall receive  credit for  one 'month  of participation'  for each
calendar month during which a deferral election is in effect pursuant to Section
3 of Articles III or IV. Minerals Stock and/or Services Stock, in respect of the
vested Units standing to  the credit of such  Employee attributable to  Matching
Incentive  Contributions,  Matching Salary  Contributions and  dividends related
thereto shall  be  distributed in  a  single lump  sum  as soon  as  practicable
following the third anniversary of his or her termination of employment.
 
     SECTION  3. In-Service Distributions. Any Employee may make an election, on
or before December 31 of any Year,  to receive a distribution in Minerals  Stock
and/or  Services Stock  in a  lump sum  or in  not more  than five  equal annual
installments, on or commencing as of January 1 of the second following Year  (or
as  promptly as  practicable thereafter), in  respect of all  Services Units and
Minerals  Units   (other  than   Units   attributable  to   Matching   Incentive
Contributions,  Matching  Salary  Contributions and  dividends  related thereto)
standing to his or her  credit in such Incentive Account  as of such January  1;
provided, however, that no such election shall be effective if (a) such Employee
has outstanding at such December 31 an election pursuant to Article III, IV or V
to defer any amounts hereunder or (b) such Employee's employment shall terminate
for  any reason prior to such January 1. Such election to receive a distribution
or distributions shall be irrevocable, except that it may be revoked, and a  new
election  may be  made, at  any time prior  to such  December 31.  The number of
shares of  Minerals  Stock  and/or  Services  Stock  (and  the  amount  of  cash
representing fractional Units) to be distributed shall be determined in the same
manner as provided in Section 1 of this Article VI.

                                  ARTICLE VII
                           DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY
 
     An  Employee may designate in a written election filed with the Committee a
beneficiary or  beneficiaries (which  may  be an  entity  other than  a  natural
person)  to receive all  distributions and payments under  the Program after the
Employee's death. Any such designation may be revoked, and a new election may be
made, at any time and from time to time, by the Employee without the consent  of
any  beneficiary.  If the  Employee designates  more  than one  beneficiary, any
distributions and  payments  to  such  beneficiaries  shall  be  made  in  equal
percentages  unless the  Employee has  designated otherwise,  in which  case the
distributions and payments shall  be made in the  percentages designated by  the
Employee.  If no beneficiary  has been named  by the Employee  or no beneficiary
survives the Employee, the remaining Shares (including fractional Shares) in the
Employee's Incentive Account shall be distributed or paid in a single sum to the
Employee's estate.  In the  event  of a  beneficiary's death  after  installment
payments  to the beneficiary have commenced,  the remaining installments will be
paid to a contingent beneficiary, if any, designated by the Employee or, in  the
absence  of a surviving contingent  beneficiary, the remaining Shares (including
fractional Shares) shall  be distributed  or paid to  the primary  beneficiary's
estate  in  a single  distribution. All  distributions shall  be made  in Shares
except that fractional shares shall be paid in cash.
 
                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                 MISCELLANEOUS
 
     SECTION 1. Nontransferability  of Benefits. Except  as provided in  Article
VII,  Units credited  to an  Incentive Account shall  not be  transferable by an
Employee or former Employee (or his or her beneficiaries) other than by will  or
the  laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order.
No Employee, no  person claiming  through such  Employee, nor  any other  person
shall  have any right or  interest under the Program,  or in its continuance, in
the payment  of any  amount or  distribution of  any Shares  under the  Program,
unless  and until all the  provisions of the Program,  any determination made by
the Committee thereunder, and  any restrictions and  limitations on the  payment
itself  have been fully complied with. Except  as provided in this Section 1, no
rights under  the  Program,  contingent or  otherwise,  shall  be  transferable,
assignable  or subject to any pledge or encumbrance of any nature, nor shall the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries be obligated, except as otherwise required by
law, to recognize  or give effect  to any such  transfer, assignment, pledge  or
encumbrance.
 
     SECTION  2. Notices. The Company may  require all elections contemplated by
the Program to be made on forms provided by it. All notices, elections and other
communications pursuant  to  the  Program  shall be  in  writing  and  shall  be
effective when received by the Company at the following address:
 
           The Pittston Company
           100 First Stamford Place
           P. O. Box 120070
           Stamford, CT 06912-0070
           Attention of Vice President -- Human Resources
 
     SECTION  3. Limitation on Rights of Employee. Nothing in this Program shall
be deemed to create, on the part  of any Employee, beneficiary or other  person,
(a) any interest of any kind in the assets of
 
                                       15
 
<PAGE>
the  Company  or (b)  any trust  or  fiduciary relationship  in relation  to the
Company. The right of an Employee to receive any Shares shall be no greater than
the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
 
     SECTION 4.  No Contract  of  Employment. The  benefits provided  under  the
Program  for an Employee shall be in addition  to, and in no way preclude, other
forms of compensation to or in respect of such Employee. However, the  selection
of  any Employee for participation  in the Program shall  not give such Employee
any right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
for any  period.  The right  of  the Company  and  of each  such  Subsidiary  to
terminate  the  employment of  any Employee  for any  reason or  at any  time is
specifically reserved.
 
     SECTION 5. Withholding. All distributions pursuant to the Program shall  be
subject  to withholding in respect of income  and other taxes required by law to
be withheld.  The  Company  shall establish  appropriate  procedures  to  ensure
payment  or withholding of such taxes.  Such procedures may include arrangements
for payment or withholding  of taxes by retaining  Shares otherwise issuable  in
accordance  with the  provisions of this  Program or by  accepting already owned
Shares, and by applying the fair market value of such Shares to the  withholding
taxes payable.
 
     SECTION 6. Amendment and Termination. The Committee from time to time amend
any  of the provisions of the Program, or may at any time terminate the Program.
No amendment or termination shall  adversely affect any Units (or  distributions
in respect thereof) which shall theretofore have been credited to any Employee's
Incentive  Account.  In conjunction  with the  termination  of the  Program, the
Committee may  in  its discretion  determine  whether  the value  of  all  Units
credited  to any  or all of  the Incentive  Accounts under the  Program shall be
distributed in Shares as promptly as practicable after such termination.
