NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 and 1998
(1) The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of Carlisle Companies Incorporated and its wholly-
owned subsidiaries (together, the "Company"). Intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and, as such, do not include all information required by generally accepted
accounting principles. However, in the opinion of the Company, these
financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial statements
for the interim period presented herein. Results of operations for the
three months and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate
to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these
financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes included in the Company's 1998 Annual Report to Stockholders.
(2) The components of inventories are as follows:

(3) Diluted earnings per share of common stock are based on the weighted
average number of shares outstanding of 30,650,767 for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 and 30,644,385 for the six months ended June 30, 1999
assuming the exercise of dilutive stock options.
(4) In January 1999, the Company announced the reduction of its interest in its
perishable cargo business, consisting of its container leasing joint
venture and container manufacturing operations. On January 28, 1999 the
Company sold 85% of its interest in its leasing joint venture. In
connection with the reduction in the Company's interest in the leasing
joint venture, the Company suspended operations at its container
manufacturing facility. As a result, the Company recognized a pretax gain
Page 5 of 13
<PAGE>
of $16.6 million in the first quarter of 1999. These operations are
associated with the Company's All Other segment.
In conjunction with the implementation of the 1999 business plan, the
Company completed certain product line realignments, manufacturing
improvements and facility relocations and upgrades at its operating
businesses resulting in certain assets that are no longer required or will
be reallocated. In the first quarter of 1999, the Company recognized a
$15.9 million pretax charge related to these assets. Approximately 75% of
this charge related to machinery and equipment primarily associated with
the foodservice, roofing, tire and wheel and automotive components
manufacturing operations, with the remainder related to goodwill and other
intangible assets associated with acquisitions made in prior years. The
amount of the charge related to machinery and equipment was determined to
be the excess of the recorded values over the estimated fair values. The
fair values were determined using estimated market values or projected
future discounted cash flows, whichever was deemed appropriate. The charge
related to the intangible assets was determined as the excess of the
recorded value over the projected future discounted cash flows.
The net effect of the above items is reflected under the caption "gain on
divestiture of business and other charges" on the accompanying Consolidated
Statement of Earnings.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Carlisle Companies Incorporated ("Carlisle" or the "Company") reported record
quarterly sales of $426 million and net earnings of $28 million or $.91 per
share (diluted) for the second quarter of 1999. For the six-months ended June
30, 1999, sales were $816 million and net earnings were $50 million or $1.62 per
share.
Second quarter sales represented an increase of 8% over 1998. Eliminating the
impact of the Perishable Cargo operation, which the Company exited in January
1999, sales were up 12%. Higher sales in Construction Materials and Automotive
Components were offset slightly by lower sales in Industrial Components.
Second quarter net earnings were above 1998 by 14%. Excluding the Perishable
Cargo business, net earnings were up 18%. All segments contributed to this
increase.
Six months sales were 8% above 1998. Excluding the Perishable Cargo business,
sales were up 10%. Increases in Construction Materials and Automotive Components
offset declines in the aerospace wire and friction operations of the Industrial
Components segment.
Net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 1999 increased 14%. Excluding the
Perishable Cargo business, net earnings were 17% over last year. Carlisle Tire
and Wheel, of the Industrial Components segment, led the increase with Carlisle
SynTec (Construction Materials) and Carlisle Systems & Equipment
(General Industry) also contributing.
Construction Materials sales of $111 million reflect an 18% increase over 1998.
Earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT") for this segment increased 10%.
Domestic roofing sales were up over 1998, with TPO and insulation product lines
contributing to the increase. The higher level of lower-margin insulation sales,
coupled with raw material price increases, dampened margins for the period. The
Company has announced a price increase for EPDM rubber membrane roofing, which
will be effective October 1, 1999.
Industrial Components experienced a slight decrease in sales for the quarter
with EBIT up 5% on improved margins. Sales and earnings gains at Carlisle Tire
and Wheel and the cable assembly operations of Tensolite were offset by lower
sales activity of wire at Tensolite, and at the friction and braking systems
operations. This decline was due to reduced demand in the aerospace and mining
industries, coupled with lower heavy-duty aftermarket sales.
Automotive Components sales increased 22% over 1998 and EBIT increased 27%. 1998
results were negatively impacted by the strike at General Motors. Strong demand
at the automotive OEM assembly plants continued through the second quarter.
Absorption improvements were partially offset by continued operational
inefficiencies due to the high production volume requirements.
Page 8 of 13
<PAGE>
The General Industry (All Other) segment reported sales of $87 million, down
slightly from 1998 second quarter. After eliminating the sales of the Perishable
Cargo operation, sales of this segment were up 19% over the second quarter of
1998. EBIT increased 38% excluding the Perishable Cargo operation. Increased
sales and operational improvements at Scherping Systems, the Company's cheese
systems operations, and Walker Stainless' in-plant processing equipment
operations contributed to the higher sales and earnings of this segment. Trail
King, the Company's specialized trailer operation, remains strong, particularly
in the construction market, aided by increased spending on state and federal
highway projects. The foodservice operations continue to show improvement in
sales and earnings.
The Company announced the acquisition of Johnson Truck Bodies, a manufacturer of
fiberglass custom truck bodies serving the foodservice distribution market and
the emerging market for on-line ordering of food for delivery to homes. This
business will be reported in the All Other/General Industry segment. The impact
of this acquisition was not material in the quarter. The Company continues to
evaluate complementary and supplementary acquisitions in each of its business
segments.
Cash generated from operations was $22 million for the first six months of 1999
compared to $37 million for the same period of 1998. The decrease is
attributable to the payment of deferred taxes associated with the divestiture of
the Company's Perishable Cargo business in the first quarter of 1999. Working
capital was $256 million at June 30, 1999, compared to $250 million at March 31,
1999 and $251 million at June 30, 1998. Working capital turnover increased from
6.31 turns in 1998 to 6.65 turns in 1999. Capital expenditures of $24.3 million
are down significantly from the unusually high expenditures made in 1998.
Backlog of $229 million at June 30, 1999 is up 11% over June 30, 1998, excluding
the one-time contract at the container manufacturing operations. Stronger
backlog positions at the Automotive Components business, Scherping Systems, as
well as the addition of Johnson Truck Bodies, are the main reasons for the
increase. Also, the backlog shows continued weak aerospace wire purchases as
well as soft friction and off highway brake business.
During the last several years, and in the normal course of business, Carlisle
has replaced a substantial portion of its older computer software and systems
with new systems that are Year 2000 compliant. With respect to the remaining
information systems, as well as the Company's embedded technology, the Company
has adopted a program (involving both internal personnel and third-party
consultants) of (i) assessment, (ii) remediation, and (iii) authentication. At
this time, the Company has completed the assessment phase and has substantially
completed the remediation phase. The Company is pursuing appropriate remedial
action for the systems determined to be noncompliant. The authentication phase,
which includes simulated testing in a Year 2000 environment, will continue
throughout 1999. The estimated cost of the Company's completed and remaining
efforts is not expected to exceed $500,000.
Page 9 of 13
<PAGE>
Carlisle has a formal communication program with its significant suppliers and
large customers which will conclude in the third quarter of 1999. As part of
this program, Carlisle has, and will continue to (1) evaluate the supplier's
year 2000 compliance plans and state of readiness and (2) determine whether a
year 2000-related event will impede the ability of a particular supplier to
continue to provide goods and services. Contingency plans will be adopted for
any significant supplier that does not provide an appropriate and timely
response to Carlisle or if the results of a risk assessment identify a business
process at risk of a Year 2000 failure.
The Company believes that upon completion of the program, the Year 2000 issue
will not pose a significant operational problem for its computer systems.
However, there can be no guarantee that the failure of third parties to become
Year 2000-ready would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition or operations.

Item 5. Other Information.
On August 4, 1999, Carlisle Companies Incorporated ("Carlisle" or the "Company")
entered into a Letter of Intent (the "Letter of Intent") with
Page 10 of 13
<PAGE>
Titan International, Inc. ("Titan") pursuant to which, and subject to the
terms and conditions set forth therein, Titan will merge (the "Merger") with
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Carlisle. The closing of the Merger will be held
as soon as practicable following the execution and delivery of a definitive
merger agreement (the "Definitive Agreement"). Titan and Carlisle have agreed
to work diligently and in good faith toward the execution and delivery of the
Definitive Agreement within 45 days of the date of the Letter of Intent. The
consummation of the Merger will be subject to and conditioned upon, among
other things, (i) the execution of a mutually acceptable Definitive Agreement
and the compliance with or satisfaction or waiver of the terms and conditions
thereof; (ii) the completion of due diligence investigation by Titan and
Carlisle; (iii) the receipt of all material consents and approvals, including
from regulatory agencies (domestic or foreign), necessary to consummate the
Merger in conformity with applicable law (domestic or foreign), agreements
and orders (domestic or foreign) without the necessity of making any changes
to the business of Titan and Carlisle as they currently exist; (iv) the
approval of the Board of Directors and stockholders of each of Titan and
Carlisle of the Definitive Agreement and the transactions contemplated
thereby; (v) the Merger qualifying as a "pooling-of-interests" transaction in
accordance with Opinion 16 of the Accounting Principles Board and the receipt
by Carlisle of (A) a favorable determination by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") to the effect that the Merger qualifies as a
"pooling-of-interest" transaction and (B) a "pooling opinion" issued by
Carlisle's independent auditors in form and substance satisfactory to
Carlisle dated the date of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the "Form
S-4") and confirmed in writing at the effective time of the Merger; (vi) the
effectiveness of the Form S-4 and absence of any stop order issued by the
SEC; (vii) the shares of Carlisle Common Stock (defined below) issuable in
connection with the Merger being approved for listing on the New York Stock
Exchange ("NYSE"), subject only to official notice of issuance; and (viii)
the absence of any changes having or reasonably likely to have a material
adverse effect on the business, properties, operations, prospects or
conditions (financial or otherwise) of Titan and its subsidiaries, or
Carlisle and its subsidiaries.
Upon consummation of the Merger, each share of common stock, no par value
("Titan Common Stock") of Titan issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Merger will be converted into the right to receive the fraction of one share of
common stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Carlisle Common Stock"), of Carlisle
(the "Exchange Ratio") equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) $17 by
(ii) the average of the closing price per share of Carlisle Common Stock on the
NYSE (as reported in THE WALL STREET JOURNAL) on each of the 15 consecutive
trading days immediately preceding the second trading day prior to the actual
date of the special meeting of Carlisle's stockholders with respect to the
transactions contemplated by the Merger (the "Average Closing Price"), provided
that the Exchange Ratio will be no less than .3242 and no more than .3652, even
if the Average Closing Price exceeds $52.43 or is less than $46.55,
respectively. In the event that the Average Closing Price is (A) less than
$40.00, Titan may, at its option, terminate the Merger or (B) greater than
$60.00, Carlisle may, at its option, terminate the Merger, in each case without
further liability to the other party.

Attention: Maurice M. Taylor, Jr.,
President and Chief Executive Officer
Dear Mr. Taylor:
This letter (this "Letter") will confirm the discussions between Carlisle
Companies Incorporated ("Buyer") and Titan International, Inc. ("Seller"), with
respect to the proposed merger (the "Merger") involving Seller and an entity to
be formed by Buyer (the "Merger Sub"). The Merger shall be made upon the
following terms and subject to the following conditions:
1. PRICE AND STRUCTURE OF THE TRANSACTION.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, on the Closing Date (as
defined below), the Merger Sub and Seller shall engage in a merger qualifying as
a "tax-free" reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code"). Upon consummation of the Merger, each share of
common stock, no par value ("Seller Common Stock"), of Seller issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Merger shall be converted into right to
receive the fraction of one share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share
("Buyer Common Stock"), of Buyer (the "Exchange Ratio") equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing (i) $17 by (ii) the average of the closing price per share
of Buyer Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") (as reported in
THE WALL STREET JOURNAL) on each of the 15 consecutive trading days immediately
preceding the second trading day prior to the actual date of the special meeting
of Buyer's stockholders with respect to the transactions contemplated by the
Merger (the "Average Closing Price"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Exchange Ratio
shall be no less than .3242 and no more than .3652, even if the Average Closing
Price exceeds $52.43 or is less than $46.55, respectively. In the event that the
Average Closing Price is (i) less than $40.00, Seller may, at its option,
terminate the Merger or (ii) greater than $60.00, Buyer may, at its option,
terminate the Merger, in each case without further liability to the other party.
The Exchange Ratio
<PAGE>
shall be calculated and rounded to the nearest 1/10,000th of a decimal place.
No fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock shall be issued pursuant to the
Merger. In lieu of the issuance of any fractional share of Buyer Common Stock
pursuant to the Merger, cash adjustments shall be paid to holders in respect
of any fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock that would otherwise be
issuable, and the amount of such cash adjustment shall be equal to the
product of such fractional amount and the Average Closing Price of Buyer
Common Stock for the first five trading days commencing on and immediately
following the Closing Date.
Upon consummation of the Merger, all obligations of Seller under issued and
outstanding options, warrants and other rights to acquire or receive Seller
Common Stock (the "Seller Options") shall be transferred to and assumed by Buyer
as options to purchase shares of Buyer Common Stock. Following the effective
time of the transactions contemplated by the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each
such Seller Option shall be exercisable upon the same terms and conditions as
then are applicable to such Seller Option, except that (i) each such Seller
Option shall be exercisable for that number of shares of Buyer Common Stock
equal to the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Seller
Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise in full of such assumed Seller
Option immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded
down to the nearest whole number of shares of Buyer Common Stock and (ii) the
per share exercise price for the shares of Buyer Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of such Seller Option shall be equal to the quotient obtained by
dividing the exercise price per share of Seller Common Stock at which such
Seller Option were exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the
Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Seller and Buyer shall
cooperate and take all actions that are reasonably necessary and within Seller's
control to (A) comply with the provisions of this paragraph and (B) avoid any
"excess parachute payment" (as contemplated by Section 280G of the Code) with
respect to such options.
2. SIGNING AND CLOSING.
The closing of the Merger shall be held as soon as practicable following the
execution and delivery of a definitive merger agreement (the "Definitive
Agreement"), at a time and place to be mutually agreed upon by Seller and Buyer
(the "Closing Date"). The parties agree to work diligently and in good faith
toward the execution and delivery of the Definitive Agreement within 45 days of
the date hereof (the "Target Date"). The consummation of the Merger shall be
subject to and conditioned upon, among other things, (i) the execution of a
mutually acceptable Definitive Agreement and the compliance with or satisfaction
or waiver of the terms and conditions thereof on or before the Closing Date;
(ii) the completion of due diligence investigation by Seller and Buyer as
described further in paragraph 3 below; (iii) the receipt of all material
consents and approvals, including from regulatory agencies (domestic or
foreign), necessary to consummate the Merger in conformity with applicable law
(domestic or foreign), agreements and orders (domestic or foreign) without the
necessity of making any changes to the business of Buyer or Seller as they
currently exist; (iv) the approval of the Board of Directors and stockholders of
each of Seller and Buyer of the Definitive Agreement and the transactions
contemplated thereby; (v) the Merger qualifying as a "pooling-of-interests"
transaction in accordance with Opinion 16 of the Accounting Principles Board and
the receipt by Buyer of (A) a favorable determination by the Securities and
Exchange Commission
<PAGE>
(the "SEC") to the effect that the Merger qualifies as a
"pooling-of-interest" transaction and (B) a "pooling opinion" issued by
Buyer's independent auditors in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer
dated the date of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the "Form S-4") and
confirmed in writing at the Effective Time; (vi) the Form S-4 shall have
become effective in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and no stop order shall have been
issued by the SEC with respect thereto; (vii) the shares of Buyer Common
Stock issuable in connection with the Merger shall have been approved for
listing on the NYSE, subject only to official notice of issuance; and (viii)
the absence of any changes having or reasonably likely to have a material
adverse effect on the business, properties, operations, prospects or
conditions (financial or otherwise) of Seller and its subsidiaries, or Buyer
and its subsidiaries, in each case, taken as a whole. The shares of Buyer
Common Stock to be delivered in connection with the Merger shall be
registered with the SEC pursuant to the Form S-4. The Form S-4, which shall
include the joint proxy statement/prospectus of Seller and Buyer, shall be
mailed to all of the stockholders of Seller and Buyer in connection with
their approval of the transactions contemplated by the Merger.
3. ACCESS TO FACILITIES; DUE DILIGENCE.
From the date hereof to the Expiration Date (as defined in Paragraph 14), each
of Seller and Buyer and their respective attorneys, consultants, accountants,
lenders and authorized representatives (collectively, the "Representatives"),
upon reasonable notice to the other party, shall be afforded full access to the
all properties, books, contracts, commitments, records, personnel, agents and
representatives of the other party in order to permit it to conduct its due
diligence investigation of the other party. It is anticipated that this
investigation will include an examination and assessment of future business
prospects of the respective parties, including a review of strategic plans,
products and financial forecasts. Following receipt of all necessary approvals
under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended,
Buyer and its Representatives shall also be permitted to contact suppliers,
customers and others having business relations with Seller in connection with
such investigation upon reasonable prior notice to Seller.
4. CONDUCT OF BUSINESS PENDING CLOSING.
From the date hereof until the Expiration Date, Seller shall continue to operate
its business in the usual and ordinary course (including, without limitation,
the payment of dividends in accordance with past practice), shall refrain from
entering into any material contracts or agreements, other than in accordance
with past practice, making any material capital expenditures (not approved by
Seller's Board of Director prior to the date hereof) or significant
organizational or personnel changes (including the sale or purchase of any
significant assets or business segments, other than in the ordinary course) and
shall use all reasonable efforts to preserve the goodwill of its customers,
employees, independent contractors, suppliers and others with whom Seller has
business relations.
<PAGE>
5. NO SOLICITATION.
For the period from the date hereof until the Target Date, or such longer period
as the parties hereto may agree in writing (the "Nonsolicitation Period"),
Seller and each of its officers, directors, attorneys, accountants and other
representatives acting within the scope of their authority shall refrain,
directly or indirectly, from soliciting, initiating, inducing or otherwise
encouraging (i) inquiries or proposals from, (ii) an offer to be made by or
(iii) discussions with any party other than Buyer with respect to the sale of
any of the capital stock or business of Seller or any of its assets (other than
sales of assets in ordinary course of business). Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this paragraph 5, Seller's Board of Directors shall be free to
take any action or authorize the taking of any action with respect to
unsolicited (and only unsolicited) inquiries, proposals or offers, including,
without limitation, responding thereto and providing information to third
parties in connection therewith, as may be required in the exercise of their
fiduciary duties to Seller or its stockholders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, as a
condition to taking any such action, Seller must have received from any such
third party an executed confidentiality agreement in customary form on terms not
less favorable to Seller than the confidentiality provisions set forth in that
certain Confidentiality Agreement, dated the date hereof, by and between Seller
and Buyer (the "Confidentiality Agreement"). Seller shall promptly inform Buyer
in writing of any such inquiry (including the name of any such third party). The
foregoing shall in no way limit Seller's obligations to Buyer hereunder,
including, without limitation, under paragraph 10 below.
6. DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
The obligations of Seller and Buyer are expressly subject to the negotiation and
execution of the Definitive Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to each
party and their respective counsel. The Definitive Agreement shall contain
representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, conditions, termination
provisions and indemnities as are customary in public merger agreements of this
type.
7. VOTING AGREEMENT.
Seller acknowledges that in order to insure that the Merger will be consummated
as intended and as an inducement to Buyer entering into this Letter, each of
MascoTech., Inc., 399 Venture Partners, Inc., Maurice M. Taylor, Jr. and Anthony
L. Soave (the "Granting Stockholders"), holding in the aggregate approximately
37% of all the issued and outstanding shares of Seller Common Stock, shall
execute and deliver to Buyer a voting agreement/irrevocable proxy (the "Voting
Agreement") in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A upon Seller's execution of
this Letter.
8. CONFIDENTIALITY.
In the event of the termination of this Letter or the transactions contemplated
hereby, all information acquired by either party or their respective employees,
agents or Representatives of the business of the other party hereto shall be
held in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Confidentiality
Agreement, which terms and provisions are incorporated herein in their entirety
and constitute a part hereof.

("Public Filings"), complied in all material respects with the applicable
requirements of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and the rules and regulations under each such Act, and none of such

1999, neither Seller nor Buyer has incurred any undisclosed Material liability

subsidiaries taken as a whole.

documents and the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation to facilitate the

acquisition statutes or similar laws.

could have a material adverse effect on the (A) the business, properties,
operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of Seller and its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole, which are not set forth in Seller's Public

such time Seller shall no longer be obligated under the provisions of the
first paragraph of this paragraph 10.

NEWS RELEASE
CSL990015
8/4/99 1: 16 PM
(CSL) CARLISLE COMPANIES TO ACQUIRE TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.
SYRACUSE, NEW YORK, August 4, 1999 ...... Carlisle Companies Incorporated
(NYSE:CSL) and Titan International, Inc. (NYSE:TWI) jointly announced today that
the two companies have entered into a letter of intent providing for the merger
of Titan into Carlisle Companies in a transaction valued at approximately $600
million including the assumption of debt.
Upon consummation of the merger, each share of Titan's common stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the merger will be converted into the right to
receive the fraction of one share of Carlisle's common stock equal to the
quotient obtained by dividing (i) $17 by (ii) the average of the closing price
per share of Carlisle's common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on each of
the 15 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the second trading day
prior to the actual date of the special meeting of Carlisle's stockholders with
respect to the transactions contemplated by the merger, subject to a maximum and
minimum exchange ratio of .3652 and .3242, respectively. The letter of intent
has been approved by the Board of Directors of Titan.
In connection with the execution of the letter of intent, certain of Titan=s
stockholders, holding in the aggregate approximately 37% of Titan's outstanding
common stock, have entered into voting agreements with Carlisle pursuant to
which such stockholders have agreed to vote their shares of Titan's common stock
in favor of the proposed merger.
The proposed merger is conditioned upon execution and delivery of a definitive
merger agreement, completion of due diligence, approval by the Boards of
Directors and the stockholders of both Carlisle and Titan of the proposed merger
and the definitive merger agreement, procurement of applicable regulatory
approval, the proposed merger qualifying as a "pooling-of-interest" transaction,
and other customary conditions to closing and may be terminated under certain
circumstances. Titan has agreed not to solicit competing offers for a period of
45 days and to pay a termination fee of $20,000,000 under certain circumstances.
Maurice M. Taylor, Jr., Titan's President and CEO, said, "This merger is a great
opportunity for both Carlisle and Titan. Carlisle is a well-established company
and Titan is a young aggressive company whose new LSW technology in the off-
highway wheel and tire business is, I believe, ready to take the market by
storm. As the largest individual investor in Titan, there comes a time to look
at the big picture and this merger is a better way to advance Titan's goals and
to strengthen its outlook for the future. My experience is primarily in
engineering and sales. Steve Munn is much stronger in the
<PAGE>
financial area than I am, and he's also one heck of a salesman. Together we
should be quite a team in the industry." Stephen P. Munn, Carlisle's Chairman
and CEO, said, "This merger is a unique opportunity for our two companies to
bring outstanding technology, a more favorable cost basis, a broader product
line, and a more enhanced global presence with better service to the customer
base within the tire and wheel industry. We are most enthusiastic about this
transaction and excited about the future opportunities."
Carlisle is a diversified manufacturer of products serving four major markets:
construction materials, automotive components, industrial components and general
industry.
Titan International is a leading global manufacturer of wheel and tire
assemblies serving the agricultural, construction and consumer markets. Titan
has manufacturing and distribution facilities throughout the United States,
Europe and South America.
