NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The "Company" refers to G-I Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries, and the
"Registrant" refers to G-I Holdings Inc. These financial statements reflect,
in the opinion of the Registrant, all adjustments necessary to present fairly
the financial position of the Company at December 31, 1995 and September 29,
1996, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended
October 1, 1995 and September 29, 1996. All adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the annual financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1995 (the "Form 10-K").
NOTE A: In September 1996, GAF Corporation ("GAF") announced a series of
transactions involving the refinancing and reduction of existing
indebtedness. ISP Holdings Inc. ("ISP Holdings"), the parent of the
Registrant and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of GAF, was formed in
1996 in order to consummate such transactions.
On October 18, 1996, ISP Holdings concluded a cash tender offer
and consent solicitation for the Registrant's outstanding Senior
Discount Notes due 1998 ("Discount Notes"). Pursuant to the tender
offer, $428.5 million aggregate principal amount of Discount Notes
were purchased by ISP Holdings; $133 million aggregate principal
amount of such Discount Notes were repurchased by the Registrant from
ISP Holdings. $301.8 million aggregate principal amount of Discount
Notes remain outstanding, $295.5 million of which are held by ISP
Holdings. ISP Holdings also concluded an offer to exchange its new
Senior Notes due February 15, 2002 for the Registrant's 10% Senior
Notes due 2006 (the "10% Notes"). Pursuant to the exchange offer,
$199.9 million of the 10% Notes were acquired by ISP Holdings and
remain outstanding. An additional $.1 million of 10% Notes are held
by other holders.
Pursuant to the consent solicitations, ISP Holdings obtained
consents to amendments to the Indentures relating to the Discount
Notes and 10% Notes which modified or eliminated the restrictive
covenants contained in the Indentures, including those that prohibit
the transactions described below, restrict the Registrant from making
distributions (including the payment of dividends) to its parent, and
restrict transactions with affiliates. The consents also eliminated
the requirement contained in the Indentures that the Registrant
continue to make filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
regardless of whether it is subject to reporting obligations under
the securities laws. The Registrant intends to terminate its
reporting obligations as soon as it may do so under applicable
securities laws and regulations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE A: (Continued)
In connection with these transactions, the Company will record
an extraordinary loss of approximately $23 million (net of the
related income tax benefit) in the fourth quarter of 1996.
Furthermore, subject to certain conditions, GAF intends to
effect a series of transactions involving its subsidiaries that will
result in the capital stock of ISP Holdings (whose principal asset
will then be approximately 83% of the issued and outstanding common
stock of International Specialty Products Inc. ("ISP")) being
distributed to the stockholders of GAF. As a result of such
distribution, ISP Holdings and ISP will no longer be direct or
indirect subsidiaries of GAF, and the other assets of GAF,
principally the building materials business, will remain assets of
the Registrant. G-I Holdings Inc. will remain a wholly-owned
subsidiary of ISP Holdings until such transactions are consummated.
Upon consummation of such transactions, all Discount Notes and 10%
Notes then held by ISP Holdings will be contributed to G-I Holdings
Inc. and be canceled.
NOTE B: Discontinued Operation
On August 1, 1996, the Company completed the sale of WAXQ, a
commercial radio station operated by GAF Broadcasting Company, Inc.
("GAF Broadcasting"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, for a
purchase price of $90 million. The gain on disposal was $43.6
million, after income taxes of $30.6 million.
Accordingly, GAF Broadcasting is reported as a discontinued
operation. Summary operating results for GAF Broadcasting for the
third quarter and first nine months of 1995 and 1996 are as follows:

NOTE E: On July 26, 1996, ISP refinanced its $250 million long-term revolving
credit facility and $150 million one-year revolving credit facility
with a $400 million five-year revolving credit facility (the "ISP
Credit Agreement"). Borrowings under the ISP Credit Agreement bear
interest at a floating rate based on the banks' base rate, federal
funds rate, Eurodollar rate or a competitive bid rate (which may be
based on LIBOR or money market rates), at the option of ISP.
The ISP Credit Agreement permits ISP to make loans to affiliates
and to make available letters of credit for the benefit of affiliates
in an aggregate amount of up to $75 million. As of September 29,
1996, $2.3 million of letters of credit for the benefit of affiliates
were outstanding.
The ISP Credit Agreement permits ISP to pay cash dividends and
make other restricted payments (as defined) of up to the sum of $50
million plus 50% of the sum of its consolidated net income (if
positive) after January 1, 1996 plus the aggregate net cash proceeds
from issuance of ISP's common stock after December 31, 1995.

NOTE G: Contingencies
Asbestos Claims Filed Against GAF
As of September 29, 1996, GAF had been named as a defendant in
approximately 59,300 pending lawsuits involving alleged health claims
relating to the inhalation of asbestos fiber ("Asbestos Claims"),
having resolved approximately 221,000 Asbestos Claims. Plaintiffs in
approximately 31,200 of the pending lawsuits were preliminarily
enjoined from proceeding with their claims other than in accordance
with the pending class-action settlement of future asbestos bodily
injury claims (the "Settlement"). Since December 31, 1995, GAF has
settled approximately 19,900 Asbestos Claims and received notice of
approximately 29,500 new Asbestos Claims (of which approximately
23,800 are subject to the preliminary injunction). On May 10, 1996,
the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit (the "Third
Circuit") issued an opinion, concluding that the class action was not
certifiable as a class action, thus reversing the decision of the
lower court which (i) found the Settlement fair and reasonable and
(ii) issued the preliminary injunction. The Company has filed a
petition for a writ of certiorari with the United States Supreme
Court to pursue an appeal of the Third Circuit's decision. The
Company continues to believe the Settlement should ultimately be
upheld on appeal, although there can be no assurance in this regard.
7
<PAGE>
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE G: (Continued)
The reserves of GAF and the Company for asbestos bodily injury
claims, as of September 29, 1996, were approximately $357.8 million
(before estimated present value of recoveries from products liability
insurance policies of approximately $211 million and related deferred
tax benefits of approximately $51.4 million). As a result of a
settlement agreement with an insurance guaranty association entered
into by the Company in the third quarter of 1996, estimated
recoveries from products liability insurance policies were increased
by $32.7 million as of September 29, 1996 and, in that connection,
the Company elected to increase its reserve for asbestos bodily
injury claims by $32.7 million as of such date. Certain components
of the asbestos-related liability and the related insurance
recoveries have been reflected on a discounted basis in the Company's
financial statements. The aggregate undiscounted liability, as of
September 29, 1996, before estimated recoveries from products
liability insurance policies, was $398.1 million. The estimate of
liability for Asbestos Claims is based on the Settlement becoming
effective and on assumptions which relate, among other things, to the
number of new cases filed, the cost of resolving (either by
settlement or litigation or through the mechanism established by the
Settlement) pending and future claims, the realization of related tax
benefits, the favorable resolution of pending litigation against
certain insurance companies and the amount of GAF's recoveries from
various insurance companies.
The Company believes that the reserves established on its books
(which reflect the discounting of a portion of the liabilities),
together with anticipated available insurance proceeds, will be
sufficient to satisfy all pending Asbestos Claims and all claims
anticipated to be resolved during the ten-year period of the
Settlement. There can be no assurance, however, that the assumptions
referred to above are correct.
Although any opinion is necessarily judgmental and must be based
on information currently known, it is the opinion of GAF and the
Company, based on the assumptions referred to above and their
analysis of their future business, financial prospects and cash
flows, that asbestos-related bodily injury claims will not,
individually or in the aggregate, have a materially adverse effect on
the respective financial positions, results of operations or
liquidity of GAF and the Company, after giving effect to the
aforementioned reserves. In the event that the Third Circuit's
decision is not reversed and the Settlement is not upheld, or the
8
<PAGE>
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE G: (Continued)
conditions to the effectiveness of the Settlement are not satisfied,
GAF and the Company could be required to increase their estimates of
the asbestos-related liabilities and adjust any related discounts,
and it is not currently possible to estimate the range or amount of
such possible additional liability.
GAF has also been named as a co-defendant in asbestos-in-
buildings cases for economic and property damage or other injuries
based upon an alleged present or future need to remove asbestos-
containing materials from public and private buildings. Since these
actions were first initiated 13 years ago, GAF has not only
successfully disposed of approximately 140 such cases at an average
disposition cost (including cases disposed of at no cost to GAF) of
approximately $15,000 per case (all of which have been paid by
insurance under reservation of rights), but is a co-defendant in only
8 remaining lawsuits.
Environmental Litigation
The Company, together with other companies, is a party to a
variety of proceedings and lawsuits involving environmental matters
("Environmental Claims"), in which recovery is sought for the cost of
cleanup of contaminated sites, a number of which are in the early
stages or have been dormant for protracted periods. At most sites,
the Company anticipates that liability will be apportioned among the
companies found to be responsible for the presence of hazardous
substances at the site.
In the opinion of the Company's management, the resolution of
the Environmental Claims should not be, individually or in the
aggregate, material to the results of operations, liquidity or
financial position of the Company. However, adverse decisions or
events, particularly as to the liability and the financial
responsibility of the other parties involved at each site and their
insurers, could cause the Company to increase its estimate of its
liability in respect of such matters. It is not currently possible
to estimate the amount or range of any additional liability.
For further information regarding asbestos-related and
environmental matters and other litigation, reference is made to
SItem 3. Legal Proceedings" in the Company's Form 10-K.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations - Third Quarter 1996 Compared With
Third Quarter 1995
The Company recorded third quarter 1996 net income of $54.1 million
compared with net income of $11.8 million in the third quarter of 1995. Net
income in the third quarter of 1996 included a gain of $43.6 million (net of
tax) from the sale of a discontinued operation (see Note B to Consolidated
Financial Statements). Net income for the third quarter of 1996 also reflected
higher operating income, offset by increased interest expense and lower other
income.
The Company's third quarter operating income was $55.9 million, an
increase of 16% over last year's $48.1 million, resulting from higher operating
income in each of its two businesses. Net sales for the third quarter
increased by 18% to $410.7 million from last year's $347.5 million.
ISP's net sales (excluding sales to BMCA and USI) were $159.1 million for
the third quarter of 1996 compared with $155.5 million for the same period last
year. The higher sales reflected higher unit sales in the U.S., Europe and
Western Hemisphere, partially offset by lower sales in the Asia-Pacific region
and the unfavorable effect ($2.2 million) of the stronger U.S. dollar relative
to other currencies in certain areas of the world.
ISP's operating income for the third quarter of 1996 increased by 5% to
$33.5 million from last year's $31.8 million. The increase in operating income
was attributable to higher specialty chemicals operating income (up $1.1
million or 4%) and higher mineral products operating income (up $.9 million or
18%), due to increased sales and improved gross margins, partially offset by
lower filter products results (down $.4 million). The improved specialty
chemicals gross margins (up 2.3 percentage points) were due to the continued
benefits from ISP's re-engineering program.
The Company's building materials business ("Building Materials") is
conducted through two wholly-owned subsidiaries, BMCA and USI. Building
Materials' net sales for the third quarter of 1996 were $251.6 million, a 31%
increase over last year's sales of $192 million, primarily reflecting sales of
USI, which was acquired in October 1995, and also reflecting 18% higher BMCA
sales due to increased unit volumes of both residential and commercial roofing
products and higher average selling prices.
Operating income for Building Materials for the third quarter of 1996 was
$22.8 million, a 46% increase compared with $15.6 million recorded in last
year's quarter. The higher operating income resulted from the higher sales
volumes and from improved BMCA gross margins (up .9 percentage points)
resulting primarily from higher average selling prices, as well as operating
income of $2.5 million at USI.
10
<PAGE>
Interest expense increased to $37.8 million for the third quarter of 1996
compared with $36.3 million for the same period last year. The increase was
due primarily to higher debt levels, partially offset by the effects of lower
interest rates.
Other income, net for the third quarter was $2.4 million compared with
$10.6 million for the third quarter of 1995, with the decrease primarily
attributable to $9.6 million of non-recurring expenses, reflecting a $6.6
million write-down of an inactive plant and a $3.0 million provision for
environmental expenses related to discontinued operations, partially offset by
higher investment income.
Results of Operations - Nine Months 1996 Compared With
Nine Months 1995
For the first nine months of 1996, the Company recorded net income of
$69.8 million compared with net income of $25.9 million for the first nine
months of 1995. Net income in the 1996 period included the $43.6 million gain
(net of tax) from the sale of a discontinued operation, and also reflected an
extraordinary charge of $8.2 million (net of a related income tax benefit of $5
million) related to the exchange of a portion of the Registrant's senior debt
(see Note C to Consolidated Financial Statements). Income from continuing
operations before the extraordinary item increased by 36% as a result of higher
operating income and higher equity income from the GAF-Huls Chemie GmbH joint
venture, partially offset by increased interest expense.
Operating income for the first nine months of 1996 was $154.7 million, an
increase of 14% from $135.6 million in the same period last year, resulting
from higher operating income in each of the Company's two businesses. Net
sales for the first nine months increased by 15% to $1.154 billion from last
year's $1.002 billion.
ISP's net sales for the first nine months (excluding sales to BMCA and
USI) were $505.1 million compared with $494.4 million for the same period in
1995. The sales growth was attributable to increased sales of specialty
chemicals (up $12.6 million), primarily reflecting increased sales volumes and
higher sales prices, and also reflected higher filter products sales (up $2.7
million) due to increased sales volumes. The increase in sales resulted from
higher sales in the U.S., Europe and the Western Hemisphere, partially offset
by lower sales in the Asia-Pacific region and the unfavorable effect ($6.7
million) of the stronger U.S. dollar relative to other currencies in certain
areas of the world. Sales for the mineral products business (excluding sales
to BMCA and USI) decreased by $4.9 million (16%) due to lower sales volumes
resulting from a lost customer and adverse winter weather conditions in the
first quarter of 1996.
11
<PAGE>
ISP's operating income for the first nine months of 1996 increased by 7%
to $105.7 million from last year's $99.2 million. The increase in operating
income was due to higher specialty chemicals operating income (up $9.7 million
or 12%), partially offset by lower mineral and filter products results (down
$1.1 and $2.4 million, respectively). The higher specialty chemicals operating
income resulted primarily from the higher sales levels and improved gross
margins (up 2.9 percentage points) due to improved pricing and continued
benefits from the Company's re-engineering program.
Building Materials' net sales for the first nine months of 1996 were
$648.5 million, a 28% increase over sales of $507.7 million for the same period
in 1995. The higher sales primarily reflected the sales of USI, which was
acquired in October 1995, and also reflected a 14% sales growth for BMCA due to
increased unit volumes of both residential and commercial roofing products and
higher average selling prices.
Operating income for Building Materials for the first nine months of 1996
was $51.2 million, a 33% increase compared with $38.4 million for the same
period in 1995. The higher operating income resulted from higher sales and
improved BMCA gross margins resulting primarily from higher average selling
prices, as well as operating income of $3.1 million at USI.
Interest expense increased to $112.9 million for the first nine months of
1996 compared with $108 million for the same period last year, with the
increase due primarily to higher debt levels, partially offset by lower
interest rates.
Other income, net for the first nine months of 1996 was $25.7 million
compared with $25.4 million last year, with the increase attributable to higher
investment income and gains associated with ISP's program to hedge certain of
its foreign currency exposures, mostly offset by $10.4 million of non-recurring
expenses, reflecting a $6.6 million write-down of an inactive plant and $3.8
million in provisions for environmental expenses related to discontinued
operations.
Liquidity and Financial Condition
During the first nine months of 1996, the Company generated $80.4 million
of cash from operations, invested $51.4 million in capital expenditures and
acquisitions, received $89.5 million of net proceeds from the sale of a
discontinued operation, and generated $31.7 million from net sales of available-
for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, for a net cash inflow of $150.2
million before financing activities. Such cash flow was net of $53.4 million
in net payments of asbestos claims.
Cash invested in additional working capital totaled $41.5 million during
the first nine months of 1996. This amount principally reflected a $71.7
million increase in receivables (including a $33.4 million increase in the
12
<PAGE>
receivable from the trust which purchases BMCA's trade accounts receivable) due
mainly to higher sales in September 1996 versus December 1995, partially offset
by a $33.1 million increase in payables. Cash from operations in the first
nine months of 1996 included $5.7 million in dividends received from the GAF-
Huls Chemie GmbH joint venture.
Net cash used in financing activities during the first nine months of 1996
was $69.6 million, primarily comprised of a $40.8 million reduction in
borrowings under ISP's bank credit agreements, $11.7 million of net repayments
of other long-term debt, a $13.8 million decrease in short-term borrowings,
$10.4 million for ISP's repurchases of its common stock, and $6.4 million in
dividends paid to the Registrant's parent, GAF, partially offset by $16.4
million in proceeds from the sale of BMCA's trade receivables.
As a result of the foregoing factors, cash and cash equivalents increased
by $80.5 million during the first nine months of 1996 to $171.9 million
(excluding $139.1 million of available-for-sale securities and $14.5 million of
held-to-maturity securities).
On August 1, 1996, the Company completed the sale of WAXQ, a commercial
radio station operated by GAF Broadcasting Company, Inc., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company for a purchase price of $90 million.
In June 1996, BMCA's bank credit facilities were extended to June 1997 on
the same terms and conditions. Such facilities provide for revolving lines of
credit of up to $30 million and letters of credit facilities of up to $39
million, provided that total borrowings and outstanding letters of credit may
not exceed $40 million. As of September 29, 1996, $33.1 million of letters of
credit were outstanding and no amounts had been borrowed thereunder.
On July 26, 1996, ISP entered into a new five-year revolving credit
facility (the "ISP Credit Agreement") with a group of banks, which provides for
loans of up to $400 million and letters of credit of up to $75 million (see
Note E to Consolidated Financial Statements).
The ISP Credit Agreement and the indentures relating to ISP's 9% Senior
Notes and BMCA's Senior Deferred Coupon Notes contain restrictions which limit
the amount of dividends and loans that may be made to affiliates, including the
Registrant. As of September 29, 1996, ISP could have paid dividends in the
aggregate amount of $79.9 million, of which $66.4 million would have been
available to the Registrant, and could have made loans to affiliates of $72.7
$72.7 million, and BMCA could have paid dividends of up to $23 million. In
addition, as of September 29, 1996, loans in the aggregate amount of $98.8
million were owed by ISP to the Registrant.

In September 1996, GAF Corporation ("GAF") announced a series of
transactions involving the refinancing and reduction of existing indebtedness.
ISP Holdings Inc. ("ISP Holdings"), the parent of the Registrant and a direct
wholly-owned subsidiary of GAF, was formed in 1996 in order to consummate such
transactions.
In February 1996, the Registrant completed the exchange of $189.3 million
in accreted value of its outstanding Senior Discount Notes due 1998 ("Discount
Notes"), representing approximately 35% of the total issue, for $200 million of
its new 10% Senior Notes due February 15, 2006 (the "10% Notes"). On October
18, 1996, ISP Holdings concluded a cash tender offer and consent solicitation
for the Registrant's outstanding Discount Notes. Pursuant to the tender offer,
$428.5 million aggregate principal amount of Discount Notes were purchased by
ISP Holdings; $133 million aggregate principal amount of such Discount Notes
were repurchased by the Registrant from ISP Holdings. $301.8 million aggregate
principal amount of Discount Notes remain outstanding, $295.5 million of which
are held by ISP Holdings. ISP Holdings also concluded an offer to exchange its
new Senior Notes due February 15, 2002 for the Registrant's 10% Notes.
Pursuant to the exchange offer, $199.9 million of the 10% Notes were acquired
by ISP Holdings and remain outstanding. An additional $.1 million of 10% Notes
are held by other holders.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the
