                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



NOTE 1 -     BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

    The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1993 has been condensed from
the Company's audited consolidated financial statements at that date.  The 
consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 1994 and the consolidated statements of
income, cash flows and stockholder's equity for the interim periods ended
June 30, 1993 and 1994 have been prepared by the Company, without audit.  In the
opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position,
results of operations and cash flows have been made.  The results of operations
for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results
for a full year or of future operations.

    Certain information normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles has been condensed or
omitted.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1993 (the "1993 Annual Report").  Commitments and contingencies are
discussed in Note 9, Item 2 -- "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and the 1993 Annual Report.

    Expected tax expense for the 1993 period is computed at the previously-
reported U.S. federal statutory rate of 34% because the retroactive increase to
the current 35% rate was not enacted until August 1993.

NOTE 9 -     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

    At June 30, 1994, the estimated cost to complete capital projects in
process approximated $16 million, including $11 million related to an expansion
of Medite's medium density fiberboard plant in Ireland.  Medite's Irish
subsidiary has entered into certain currency forward contracts to hedge exchange
rate risk on the equivalent of approximately $6 million of equipment purchase
commitments.  At June 30, 1994, the fair value of such currency contracts
approximated the contract value.

    Medite has entered into interest rate swap agreements to effectively
convert $26 million of its U.S. bank term loan from a floating to a fixed
interest rate.  At June 30, 1994, the estimated fair value of such swap
agreements was $1.8 million, which represents the estimated payment Medite would
receive if the swap agreements were terminated at that date.


MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS OF  FINANCIAL  CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS                                                                     

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

GENERAL

    Operating income for the second quarter increased 41% to $18.9 million on a
13% sales increase to $98.5 million.  For the first six months of 1994,
operating income increased 29% to $30.7 million and sales increased 10% to
$183.2 million.  The improvements in sales, earnings and margins, driven by
results of the forest products and hardware products segments, are discussed
below.  The Company's higher operating earnings more than offset the significant
increase in interest expense resulting from the Company's recapitalization
during the last half of 1993.  Net income for the second quarter increased 18%
to $9.1 million while net income of $13.3 million for the first six months of
1994 approximated that of the first half of last year.

    Medium density fiberboard.  Higher volumes and prices both contributed to
the significant improvements in MDF earnings and margins, with average first
half selling prices up 14%.  Sales of higher-priced specialty MDF products
continued to increase and represented 29% of MDF sales in the first half of
1994, up from 24% during the 1993 period.

    Medite's primary strategic focus is to continue its expansion in the
growing market for MDF, including further penetration of higher-margin specialty
MDF markets.  Medite's MDF plants are operating at a very high rate of capacity.
The expanded Irish plant, which will increase Medite's total MDF capacity by
about 25%, is expected to be operational by early 1995.

    Solid wood products.  Medite actively manages its timber resources and
varies its manufacture of wood products such as lumber and veneer, and
emphasizes or de-emphasizes the direct sale of logs, depending upon market
conditions.  Solid wood sales and earnings fluctuations were in large part a
result of market-based volume decisions made by the Company, including (i)
varying the volume of logs offered for sale (comparatively reduced during the
first quarter and increased in the second quarter of 1994) and (ii) the
curtailment of veneer and lumber production during a portion of the second
quarter of 1994.  Earnings in early 1993 were aided by higher volumes related to
reductions in certain inventories following the closure of Medite's plywood
operations in January 1993.

</TABLE>

    Fast food results improved during the second quarter (and were comparable
to the first half of last year) despite fewer stores being operated.  Comparable
store sales have increased slightly during 1994 and new store sales have more
than offset sales of stores closed.  Year-to-date earnings comparisons were
hampered by adverse winter weather during the first quarter of 1994.

OTHER

    Business unit disposition.  As previously reported, the gain in 1993
related to a change in estimate of the loss accrued in 1992 related to the
closure of Medite's plywood operations.

    Interest expense.  Interest increased principally due to higher debt levels
resulting from the Company's previously-reported 1993 recapitalization. 
Approximately $137 million of the Company's long-term debt (two-thirds of
amounts outstanding at June 30, 1994) bears interest at fixed rates averaging
9.2%.  The average interest rate on floating rate borrowings outstanding at June
30, 1994 was 6.6%.

    Provision for income taxes.  Income tax rates vary by jurisdiction (country
and/or state), and relative changes in the geographic source of the Company's
pre-tax earnings can result in fluctuations in the Company's consolidated
effective income tax rate.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

CONSOLIDATED CASH FLOWS

    Operating activities.  Both net income and net cash provided by operating
activities were comparable for the six-month periods.  Changes in assets and
liabilities result primarily from the timing of production, sales and purchases
and generally tend to even out over time.  Semi-annual interest payments on the
Valcor Senior Notes began in May 1994 and accounted for about three-fourths of
the $6 million comparative increase in cash interest payments.

    Investing activities.  Capital expenditures were almost $17 million higher
during the first half of 1994 than in the 1993 period due primarily to Medite's
Irish plant expansion and Sybra's new store expenditures.  The Company's total
capital expenditures for the last half of 1994 are estimated at $21 million,
including $11 million to substantially complete the expansion of Medite's Irish
MDF production facility and $51/2 million for Sybra's new stores and its on-
going remodeling program.  Such capital expenditures are expected to be financed
primarily from operations or existing credit facilities.

    Financing activities.  The $10 million of net borrowings in 1994 included
$8 million of project financing for Medite's Irish plant expansion.  At June 30,
1994, unused credit available to the Company's subsidiaries under existing
facilities aggregated $48 million.  In addition, Medite has committed term loan
availability to finance 75% of the remaining cost of the Irish MDF expansion
that can be drawn as expenditures are made.  Sybra's $20 million revolving bank
credit agreement was recently extended one year to July 1996.

OTHER

    Forest Products.  As discussed above, the in-process expansion of the
Medite Irish MDF plant will increase plant capacity by approximately 75% and
increase its worldwide MDF production capacity approximately 25%.

    In the solid wood portion of Medite's business, new Riparian Rights Laws in
Oregon restricting timber harvest in certain areas become effective September 1,
1994.  These new laws are currently expected to impact between 15 million and 20
million board feet of company-owned merchantable timber.  This amounts to less

than 3% of Medite's fee timber, and only a relatively small portion of the
effected timber is expected to be permanently lost to harvest.

    Hardware Products.  The Company continues to explore ways to expand this
high-margin business segment.

    Fast Food.  Sybra opened three new Arby's restaurants during the first half
of 1994, opened one new store in July and expects to open three more restaurants
later this year.  Sybra continually evaluates the profitability of its
individual restaurants, and in this regard closed five stores early in 1994 and
may close two or three additional stores later in the year.

    The terms of Sybra's Consolidated Development Agreement with Arby's, Inc.
were amended in May 1994.  Under the revised agreement, Sybra retains its
exclusive development rights in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, Sybra and Arby's now
have joint development rights in the Tampa area, and Sybra's required new store
opening schedule was modified.  The new schedule requires Sybra to open four
stores during the last half of 1994, eight more in 1995 and an additional 13
stores by various dates through 1997.  Sybra currently anticipates that its
expansion program will meet or exceed this schedule.

    General corporate.  Valcor's operations are conducted through its wholly-
owned subsidiaries and its long-term ability to meet its obligations
(principally debt service on the 95/8% Senior Notes) is largely dependent on the
receipt of dividends or other distributions from its subsidiaries.  Various
credit agreements to which Valcor's subsidiaries are parties contain customary
limitations on the payment of dividends, typically a percentage of net income or
cash flow; however the Company believes that distributions from subsidiaries
will be sufficient to enable Valcor to meet its obligations.  Valcor has not
guaranteed any indebtedness of its subsidiaries.  

    Valcor dividends to Valhi are generally limited to 50% of consolidated net
income, as defined, which dividends the Company currently expects to pay.  At
June 30, 1994, $4.3 million was available for dividends.

RE:  Sybra Development Agreement

Dear Chuck:

As you and I are aware, Sybra is currently in default of its Consolidated
Development Agreement for Tampa and Dallas.  The Agreement required six (6) new
restaurants to be opened by December 31, 1993.  Our records indicate three (3)
restaurants were opened by December 31, 1993 and an additional two (2)
restaurants (#6269 and #6285) have been opened by April 30, 1994.

Rather than terminate the Agreement, I am proposing the following:

1.  Dallas market remain protected for Sybra for the initial term of the
    Agreement should Sybra comply with the attached Development Schedule shown
    on Exhibit "B".

2.  Tampa market jointly developed by Sybra and Arby's, Inc.

    o   Sybra has thirty (30) days right-of-first refusal for Hillsborough,
        Pasco, Polk and Hernando Counties.

    o   Arby's, Inc. has a thirty (30) day right-of-first refusal for Pinellas
        County.

The Consolidated Development Territory set forth in Exhibit "A" attached hereto,
shall supersede the August 20, 1992, Territory.

If this Letter of Agreement and attached exhibits correctly express our
Agreement, please sign and return one copy to me in the enclosed self-addressed
envelope, acknowledging acceptance of these terms and conditions.

Sincerely,

ARBY'S, INC.
