                    Report of Independent Public Accountants




To The Standard Products Company:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of the STANDARD PRODUCTS INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT AND INVESTMENT TRUST
PLAN (the Plan) as of June 30, 1997 and 1996, and the related statement of
changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year ended June 30,
1997.  These financial statements and the schedules referred to below are the
responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and schedules 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 net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan
as of June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996, and the changes in net assets available
for plan benefits for the year ended June 30, 1997 in conformity with general
accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes, reportable transactions, and non-exempt
transactions are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a
required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974.  The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS






(1)  SUMMARY OF PLAN

      General

        The Standard Products Individual Retirement and Investment Trust (the 
          Plan) is a defined contribution plan covering all Company (the
          Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Oliver Rubber Company,
          Holm Industries, Inc., "5" Rubber Corporation, and Westborn
          Warehouse, Inc.  The Plan is subject to the provisions of the
          Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

      Administration

        The Plan is administered by the Standard Products Individual 
          Retirement and Investment Trust Plan Committee.  The Plan has a       
          trust agreement with the Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company to act as
          trustee and recordkeeper of the Plan's assets.

      Contributions

        In the 1996 Plan year participants could contribute up to 10 percent 
          of their pretax compensation.  Effective October 1, 1996,
          participants can contribute up to 15 percent of their pretax
          compensation. The Company contributes 75 percent of the first 2       
          percent and 25 percent of the next 3 percent (up to 5 percent) of
          base compensation that the participant contributes to the Plan. All
          employer matching contributions shall be invested in the Company
          Common Stock Fund.

        The Company may make a special employer contribution on behalf of each
          eligible non-union hourly employee, whether or not they are
          depositing participants.  For the Plan years ended June 30, 1997 and
          1996, respectively, the special employer contributions were $258,774
          and $272,698.

      Participant Accounts

        Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
          contributions, their allocation of the Company's contributions and    
          the earnings of their investment funds.

      Vesting

        The  participants are immediately vested in both their contributions 
          and the Company's contributions plus actual earnings thereon.

        Participants may borrow the lesser of 100 percent of their participant
          elected contributions account or 50 percent of the vested value of
          their entire account.  In no event should the maximum loan exceed

          percent.  The loan repayment schedule can be no longer than 54

          accounts. Payment of benefits may be taken in a lump sum cash
          distribution or in various annuity options.

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Basis of Accounting

        The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the
          accrual basis of accounting.

      Investments

        The accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
          benefits reflect the Plan's investments at their fair market values
          as of June 30, 1997 and 1996.  Net change in realized and     
          unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments is reflected
          as an adjustment of the Plan's equity balance in the accompanying
          statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits.  A
          summary of the Plan's investments at June 30, 1997, is presented in
          Schedule I.

        Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.
          Interest income is recognized when earned.  Dividends are recorded    
          on the ex-dividend date.

      Administrative Expenses

        All costs and expenses incurred in administering the Plan are
          charged to the Plan, unless otherwise paid by the Company.

      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 reported amounts of assets
          and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
          at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
          revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results
          could differ from those estimates.

      Reclassifications

        Certain amounts in the 1996 presentation have been reclassified to
          conform to the 1997 presentation.

                                      -7-

(3)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

      The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the
           Company by a letter dated February 7, 1997, that the Plan and
           related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of
           the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).  The Plan has been amended since
           receiving the determination letter.  However, the Plan administrator
           believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated
           in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.

(4)  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by the
           trustee. There have been no known prohibited transactions with a
           party-in-interest.

                    Report of Independent Public Accountants




To The Standard Products Company:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of THE STANDARD PRODUCTS COMPANY (GAYLORD, MICHIGAN PLANT) UAW LOCAL
388 COLLECTIVELY BARGAINED SAVINGS AND RETIREMENT PLAN (the Plan) as of June
30, 1997, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the year ended June 30, 1997.  These financial statements and the
schedules referred to below are the responsibility of the Plan's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
schedules based on our audits.  The financial statement of the Plan as of June
30, 1996 was not audited by us, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion
on it.

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 net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan
as of June 30, 1997, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits
for the year ended June 30, 1997 in conformity with general accepted accounting
principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  The supplemental
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



(1)  SUMMARY OF PLAN

      General

        The Standard Products Company (Gaylord, Michigan Plant) UAW
          Local 388 Company Collectively Bargained Savings and Retirement
          Plan (the Plan) is a defined contribution plan covering all
          employees who have completed the 90 day probationary period and
          are covered by the collectively bargained agreement between UAW
          Local 388 and The Standard Products Company (the Company).  The
          Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
          Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

      Administration

        The Plan is administered by The Standard Products Collectively 
          Bargained Savings and Retirement Plan Committee.  The Plan has a 
          trust agreement with the Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (the 
          Trustee) to act as trustee and recordkeeper of the Plan's assets.

      Contributions

        Each year, participants may contribute up to 15 percent of
          their pretax compensation.  The Company contributes 40 percent of
          the first 5 percent of base compensation that the participant
          contributes to the Plan.  All employer matching contributions are
          invested in the Company Common Stock Fund.

      Participant Accounts

        Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
          contributions, their allocation of the Company's contributions and
          the earnings of their investment funds.

      Vesting

        The participants are immediately vested in their contributions and the 
          Company's contributions plus actual earnings thereon.

      Investment Options

        Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct employee 
          contributions in 10 percent increments to any of six investment 
          options.

          Company Common Stock Fund - This fund invests in common stock of The
          Standard Products Company.

          Equity Fund - This fund invests in the Vanguard Windsor II Fund which
          consists of investments in a diversified group of out-of-favor stocks
          of large-capitalization companies.

          was known as the Vanguard Investment Contract Trust.

      Participant Notes Receivable

        Participants may borrow the lesser of 100 percent of their participant
          elected contributions account or 50 percent of the vested value of
          their entire account.  In no event should the maximum loan exceed
          $50,000.  The interest rate is established based on the prime rate
          and was 8.50 percent for all loans initiated during the Plan year.
          The loan repayment schedule can be no longer than 54 months.
          Principal and interest is paid ratably through payroll deductions.

      Payment of Benefits

        In the event of retirement, death, termination, permanent
          disability or other separation from service, participants shall be
          entitled to receive an amount equal to the value of the vested
          interest in their accounts. Payment of benefits may be taken in a
          lump sum cash distribution or in various annuity options.

      Termination of the Plan

        Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
          right, under the Plan, to terminate the Plan subject to the 
          provisions of ERISA.

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

            accrual basis of accounting.

                                  (Continued)


      Investments

        The accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
          benefits reflect the Plan's investments at their fair market
          values as of June 30, 1997 (audited) and 1996 (unaudited).  Net
          change in realized and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of
          investments is reflected as an adjustment of the Plan's equity
          balance in the accompanying statement of changes in net assets
          available for plan benefits.  A summary of the Plan's investments
          at June 30, 1997, is presented in Schedule I.

        Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.
          Interest income is recognized when earned.  Dividends are recorded
          on the ex-dividend date.

      Administrative Expenses

        The Company pays the administrative expenses of the Plan,
          including any expenses and fees of the Trustee.

      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 reported amounts of
          assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
          liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
          reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
          period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(3)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

      The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the
        Company by a letter dated February 7, 1997, that the Plan and
        related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of
        the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).  The Plan has been amended since
        receiving the determination letter.  However, the Plan administrator
        believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated
        in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.

(4)  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by the 
      trustee.  There have been no known prohibited transactions with a
        party-in-interest.

                    Report of Independent Public Accountants




To The Standard Products Company:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of THE STANDARD PRODUCTS COMPANY COLLECTIVELY BARGAINED SAVINGS AND
RETIREMENT PLAN (LEXINGTON DIVISION) UAW LOCAL 1681 LEXINGTON, KY (the Plan) as
of June 30, 1997 and 1996, and the related statement of changes in net assets
available for plan benefits for the year ended June 30, 1997. These financial
statements and the schedules referred to below are the responsibility of the
Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and schedules 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 net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as
of June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996, and the changes in net assets available for
plan benefits for the year ended June 30, 1997 in conformity with general
accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held
for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules
have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the
basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

(2)    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

           Basis of Accounting

              The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual
                 basis of accounting.

           Investments

              Theaccompanying statements of net assets available for plan
                 benefits reflect the Plan's investments at their fair market
                 values as of June 30, 1997 and 1996. Net change in realized and
                 unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments is
                 reflected as an adjustment of the Plan's equity balance in the
                 accompanying statement of changes in net assets available for
                 plan benefits. A summary of the Plan's investments at June 30,
                 1997, is presented in Schedule I.


                                      -6-
<PAGE>   9


              Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date
                 basis. Interest income is recognized when earned. Dividends are
                 recorded on the ex-dividend date.

           Administrative Expenses

              The Company pays the administrative expenses of the Plan,
                 including any expenses and fees of the Trustee.

           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 reported amounts
                 of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
                 and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
                 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
                 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(3)    FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

              The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has determined and informed the
                 Company by a letter dated February 7, 1997, that the Plan and
                 related trust are designed in accordance with applicable
                 sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The Plan has been
                 amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the
                 Plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is
                 currently being operated in compliance with the applicable
                 requirements of the IRC.


(4)    RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

              Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by the
                 trustee. There have been no known prohibited transactions with
                 a party-in-interest.

(5)    RECONCILIATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO FORM 5500

              The following is a reconciliation of net assets available for
                 benefits according to the financial statements to Form 5500:

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



(1)  SUMMARY OF PLAN

      General

        The Standard Products Company (Campbell Plastics Division) IUE-AFL-CIO
        Local #318 Collectively Bargained Savings and Retirement Plan (the
        Plan) is a defined contribution plan covering all employees who have
        one year of service and are covered by the collective bargaining
        agreement between IUE-AFL-CIO Local #318 (the Union) and The Standard
        Products Company (the Company).  The Plan is subject to the provisions
        of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

      Administration

        The Plan is administered by The Standard Products Collectively
        Bargained Savings and Retirement Plan Committee.  The Plan has a trust
        agreement with the Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (the Trustee) to
        act as trustee and recordkeeper of the Plan's assets.

      Contributions

        Each year, participants may contribute up to 10 percent of their
        pretax compensation.  There is no employer matching provision in the
        Plan.

        Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
        contributions and the earnings of their investment funds.

      Vesting

        The participants are immediately vested in their contributions
        plus actual earnings thereon.

      Investment Options

        Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct employee
        contributions in 10 percent increments to any of six investment
        options.

      Payment of Benefits

        In the event of retirement, death, termination, permanent disability or
        other separation from service, participants shall be entitled to
        receive an amount equal to the value of the vested interest in their
        accounts. Payment of benefits may be taken in a lump sum cash

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Basis of Accounting

        The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual
        basis of accounting.

      Investments

        The accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
        benefits reflect the Plan's investments at their fair market values as
        of June 30, 1997 and 1996.  Net change in realized and unrealized
        appreciation and depreciation of investments is reflected as an
        adjustment of the Plan's equity balance in the accompanying statement
        of changes in net assets available for plan benefits.  A summary of the
        Plan's investments at June 30, 1997, is presented in Schedule I.
        
        Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date
        basis.  Interest income is recognized when earned.  Dividends are
        recorded on the ex-dividend date.

      Administrative Expenses

        The Company pays the administrative expenses of the Plan,
        including any expenses and fees of the Trustee.

              (CAMPBELL PLASTICS DIVISION) IUE-AFL-CIO, LOCAL #318

               COLLECTIVELY BARGAINED SAVINGS AND RETIREMENT PLAN


                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Continued)



      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 reported amounts of assets
        and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
        the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
        revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results
        could differ from those estimates.

(3)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

      The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has determined and informed the
      Company by a letter dated February 7, 1997, that the Plan and related
      trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal
      Revenue Code (IRC).  The Plan has been amended since receiving the
      determination letter.  However, the Plan administrator believes that the
      Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the
      applicable requirements of the IRC.

(4)  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by the
      trustee.  There have been no known prohibited transactions with a
      party-in-interest.

(5) PLAN TERMINATION

      Effective February 15, 1997 the Company entered into a termination
      agreement with the Union to cease operations at the Campbell Plastics
      division.  Management expects the plant to be closed by December 31,
      1997.  Following the plant closing, the Company intends to terminate the
      Plan, and upon receipt of the IRS' determination that the Plan remains
      qualified upon termination, the Company will distribute all remaining
      account balances to those participants who have not previously received
      distribution of their account balances.

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Basis of Accounting

        The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual
        basis of accounting.

      Investments

        The accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
        benefits reflect the Plan's investments at their fair market values as
        of June 30, 1997.  Net change in realized and unrealized appreciation
        and depreciation of investments is reflected as an adjustment of the
        Plan's equity balance in the accompanying statement of changes in net
        assets available for plan benefits.  A summary of the Plan's
        investments at June 30, 1997, is presented in Schedule I.

        Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date
        basis.  Interest income is recognized when earned.  Dividends are
        recorded on the ex-dividend date.

      Administrative Expenses

        including any expenses and fees of the Trustee.

      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 reported amounts of assets
        and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
        the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
        revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results
        could differ from those estimates.

(3)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

      The Plan intends to apply for a favorable determination from the Internal
      Revenue Service on the qualification of the Plan under the Internal
      Revenue Code (IRC).  The Plan administrator believes that the Plan is
      designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the
      applicable requirements of the IRC.

(4)  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by the
      trustee.  There have been no known prohibited transactions with a
      party-in-interest.
