ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

         On February 26, 1997, Centex Eagle Gypsum Company, a Delaware
corporation ("Buyer Sub 1"), and CEGC Holding Company, a Delaware corporation
("Buyer Sub 2"), both wholly owned subsidiaries of Centex Construction
Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("CXP"), completed the acquisition of
all of the Common Units of Centex Eagle Gypsum Company, L.L.C., a Delaware
limited liability company ("Newco"), owned by Eagle-Gypsum Products, a Colorado
joint venture ("EGP"), and National Energy Systems, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("NES").  The acquisition was consummated pursuant to a Limited
Liability Company Unit Purchase Agreement (EGP), dated as of December 5, 1996,
among Centex American Gypsum Company, a New Mexico corporation and wholly owned
subsidiary of CXP ("CAGC"), Buyer Sub 1, and EGP, and a Limited Liability
Company Unit Purchase Agreement (NES), dated as of December 5, 1996, among
CAGC, Buyer Sub 2, and NES.  Prior to the consummation of this transaction, EGP
and NES contributed to Newco (i) all of EGP's assets and business used or
utilizable in connection with EGP's gypsum wallboard plant located in Gypsum,
Eagle County, Colorado, including EGP's gypsum mines located in close proximity
to such plant, and (ii) NES's cogeneration power facility located at the EGP
plant, respectively.  Through Newco, CXP expects to continue to operate the
gypsum plant and the cogeneration facility for the foreseeable future.

         Buyer Sub 1 and Buyer Sub 2 acquired 1,000 Common Units of Newco
(representing all of Newco's equity interests) for a purchase price of $52
million, plus EGP's net working capital (amounting to approximately $4 million).

         To fund payment of the purchase price of Newco's Common Units, CXP, on
behalf of Buyer Sub 1 and Buyer Sub 2, used (i) internally available cash
amounting to approximately $52 million and (ii) funds amounting to $4 million
provided by CXP's $10 million unsecured revolving credit facility with The
First National Bank of Chicago.

         In arriving at the purchase price paid by Buyer Sub 1 and Buyer Sub 2
for the Common Units of Newco, Buyer Sub 1 and Buyer Sub 2 calculated a range
of values for the equity interests in Newco and the values of the underlying
assets after a substantial due diligence review of such equity interests and
assets by CXP and CAGC personnel.  After extensive arm's-length negotiations,
CAGC, Buyer Sub 1, Buyer Sub 2, EGP, and NES entered into the applicable
definitive unit purchase agreements.

                         Report of Independent Auditors

The Venturers
Eagle-Gypsum Products

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Eagle-Gypsum Products (a
joint venture) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of
operations, joint venturers' deficit and cash flows for the years then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the joint venture's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Eagle-Gypsum Products at
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming Eagle-Gypsum
Products will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1,
the joint venture has incurred recurring operating losses and has a capital
deficiency. Also as discussed in Note 7, the joint venture contributed its
gypsum wallboard manufacturing facility and related assets to a limited
liability company and sold its ownership interest in the limited liability
company on February 26, 1997. These conditions raise substantial doubt about
the joint venture's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future
effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and
classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

GENERAL

Eagle-Gypsum Products (the "Venture") was formed in 1989 for the purpose of
owning and operating a gypsum mine and for the purpose of constructing, owning,
and operating a gypsum wallboard plant. Eagle Investment Group Limited
Partnership ("EIG") and Eagle-Gypsum, Ltd. ("LTD"), collectively referred to as
the Venturers, entered into an asset contribution agreement in June 1988. Under
the terms of the asset contribution agreement, as amended and restated, and
under the terms of the related joint venture agreement, EIG contributed
$1,000,000 of its notes receivable from LTD for a 73 2/3% interest in the
Venture and LTD contributed substantially all of its assets, net of certain
liabilities, for a 26 1/3% interest in the Venture. As of October 4, 1990, the
date that the bank called a $9,000,000 letter of credit from EIG (see Note 2),
EIG's partnership interest increased to 94.4%. As of February 26, 1991, the
date of the refinancing of the construction loan, $1,000,000 of the note
payable to EIG was converted to equity (see Note 2).

The equity contributions to the Venture have been accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting. EIG contributed the $2,000,000 described above
for its equity interest. LTD's contribution was valued at $357,466 based on the
percentage relationship of the 26 1/3% interest acquired by LTD in relation to
the 73 2/3% interest acquired by EIG. The total contributions were allocated to
the assets and liabilities of the Venture based upon the estimated fair values
of those assets and liabilities as of the effective date of the formation of
the Venture. The cost assigned to mine rights represents the excess of purchase
price over the fair market value of other assets acquired, net of liabilities
assumed.

The principal business activities of the Venture began on November 1, 1990 as
the wallboard plant was substantially complete and significant sales activity
commenced.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Venture will continue as a going concern. The Venture has incurred operating
losses of $5,202,509 and $5,884,569 in 1996 and 1995, respectively, and has
negative venturers' equity of $56,398,737 at December 31, 1996. Also as
discussed in Note 7, the venture

                   Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

contributed its gypsum wallboard manufacturing facility and related assets to a
limited liability company and sold its ownership interest in the limited
liability company on February 26, 1997. These considerations raise substantial
doubt about the Venture's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future
effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and
classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

CAPITALIZATION OF PREACQUISITION, DEVELOPMENT AND CONSTRUCTION COSTS

The Venture capitalized into property, plant and equipment, and into other
assets, those costs related to the preacquisition, development and construction
of the Venture's wallboard plant, and development costs related to the gypsum
mine including interest capitalized through November 1, 1990. Amortization and
depreciation of these costs began on November 1, 1990. These assets are fully
amortized as of December 31, 1995.

AMORTIZATION AND DEPRECIATION

Organization costs were amortized on a straight-line basis over five years.

Loan costs were amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related
loan.

Property, plant and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of such assets, which are considered to range
from 3 to 20 years.

INVENTORY VALUATION

Raw materials and finished goods inventories are valued at the lower of cost or
market on a first-in, first-out basis.

                   Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

INCOME TAXES

No provision is made for income tax expense or benefit since the income or loss
of the Venture is included in the income tax returns of the Venturers.

STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS

The Venture considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash paid for
interest was $2,907,277 in 1996 and $2,929,654 in 1995.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Venture sells to customers in the residential and nonresidential
construction industry primarily in the western United States.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RECLASSIFICATION OF PRIOR YEAR BALANCES

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current
year's presentation.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

During 1996, the Venture adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of ("SFAS No. 121"), which requires impairment losses to
be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indications of
impairment are present. The effect of adoption was not material.

2. NOTES PAYABLE TO BANK AND RELATED PARTIES

On March 31, 1989, the Venture entered into a construction loan agreement with
a bank which provided for maximum borrowings of $45,000,000. On September 30,
1990, the construction loan matured. The construction of the plant was not
fully completed at that point in time, nor was there a takeout financing
instrument in place. Under the terms of the loan agreement, the construction
loan was due and payable. The construction loan was partially secured by a
$9,000,000 letter of credit provided by EIG. Under the terms of the loan
agreement, the bank drew against the letter of credit for the entire
$9,000,000, reducing the total construction loan available to $36,000,000. As a
result of the bank liquidating the $9,000,000 EIG letter of credit, and by
virtue of the joint venture agreement, the Venture had a note payable to EIG at
December 31, 1990 of $9,212,266 which included interest accrued and accreted
since the date the letter of credit was liquidated.

On February 26, 1991, the Venture completed a financing agreement with the
bank, EIG and related parties to restructure its construction and working
capital debt.

The financing agreement allows the Venture to capitalize interest on its senior
and junior subordinated loans. Mandatory annual prepayments on the term loans
are required beginning December 31, 1991 to the extent of excess available
cash, as defined.

On September 21, 1992, the Venture completed a modification to the terms of the
financing agreement, which had been completed on February 26, 1991, that allows
the Venture to capitalize interest on its senior term loans and allows certain
portions of its

       administrative expenses of Eagle for the applicable periods. The Pro
       Forma Adjustments reflected under the section "For the Year Ended March
       31, 1996" are based upon Eagle's actual amounts for their calendar year
       ended December 31, 1995 as adjusted below. The amounts used "For the
       Nine Months Ended December 31, 1996" are for that specific nine-month
       period. Following is a reconciliation of Eagle's actual revenues, costs
       and expenses, and corporate general and administrative expenses to the

- --------------------

          (1)  Decrease in depreciation expense due to a difference in asset
               lives.

          (2)  Elimination of co-generation fees paid to NES.

          (3)  Decrease in labor and related benefit costs due to a reduction
               in hourly personnel and the termination of certain plant
               supervisory personnel. Also, purchased paper costs would have
               decreased due to more competitive prices available from the
               Company's paper suppliers. Upon closing, Eagle's paper contract
               was not assumed and the reductions in personnel actually
               occurred.

          (4)  To reflect certain Eagle selling and administrative personnel
               and the related benefit costs that were eliminated at closing
               due to duplicate positions at CXP's other gypsum wallboard
               operation.

          (5)  Elimination of management fees paid to an Eagle related party.

          (6)  Elimination of the amortization of organization costs in fiscal
               1996. Such costs were fully amortized as of December 31, 1995.



(b)   To reflect additional interest expense which would have been incurred
      had CXP borrowed $56 million on April 1, 1995 to fund the acquisition.
      For the year ended March 31, 1996, and the nine months ended December 31,
      1996, CXP's estimated borrowing rates under its credit facility of 6.2%
      and 5.8%, respectively, were used.

(c)   To reflect the tax effect of the foregoing items using CXP's
      effective federal and state tax rate of 35.1% for each period.
