PLAINTIFF'S EXHIBIT IL050F.ASB 11/17/94 STATE OF ILLINOIS IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE TENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT COUNTY OF PEORIA VENETTA KAY JOHNSON, Individually and as Special Administrator of the Estate of Charles E. Johnson, deceased, Plaintiff, v. OWENS-CORNING FIBERGLAS CORPORATION, et al., Defendants. ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) No. 93 L 544 DEFENDANT/ OWENS-ILLINOIS, INC.'S RESPONSES TO PLAINTIFP8' FIR8T REQUEST FOR DISCOVERY FROM DEFENDANT. OWENS-ILLINOIS. INC. PRELIMINARY STATEMENT Some of the events which may be relevant to the matters inquired about by Plaintiffs' Requests for Production apparently occurred more than thirty-five years ago. In addition, effective April 30, 1958, Owens-Illinois, Inc. disposed of the business involved in this action by way of sale of that business to Owens-Corning Fiberglas Corporation. Since that time, Owens-Illinois, Inc. has not engaged in the asbestoscontaining insulation products manufacturing business. It does not now and it has not since that sale manufactured, distributed or sold any of its Kaylo asbestos-containing insulation products. As a result of the foregoing factors, many of the individuals who might have had personal knowledge of the matters to which plaintiffs' requests relate are deceased, or are otherwise unavailable to Owens-Illinois, Inc., and investigations to date indicate that at least some documents which relate to matters inquired about by these requests were transferred to OwensCorning Fiberglas Corporation with the transfer of the business in question in 1958. Owens-Illinois, Inc. is engaged in a continuing investigation in an attempt to locate, confirm the transfer of, or confirm the absence of, such documents and is also engaged in a continuing investigation into the matters inquired about in these requests. Unless otherwise stated in a response to a specific request, the responses'set out hereinafter are limited to the period during which Owens-Illinois, Inc. manufactured asbestos-containing Kaylo insulation products and to the facilities related to that business. The following is a part of and is incorporated by reference in every response provided hereinafter: This response is accurate as of the date made. However, Owens-Illinois, Inc.'s investigation is continuing, and Owens-Illinois, Inc. cannot exclude the possibility that it may be able to obtain more complete information or even information which indicates that the response being supplied is incorrect. Owens-Illinois, Inc. objects to responding to this request in regard to any period of time other than the period during which it engaged in the manufacture and sale of the Kaylo products alleged to be involved in this case which ended in mid-1958 or concerning any facility not related to that business, on the basis that any such response would be irrelevant to the subject matter of the pending litigation, would not be reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence, and would be burdensome and oppressive. Commencing in 1963 and continuing through 1977, Kimble Glass Company, a unit of Owens-Illinois, Inc., offered for sale gaskets, inserts and spacers as accessory parts intended for use in conjunction with Kimble's conical end glass piping system. Some of these accessory parts contained asbestos as one of their ingredients. These accessory parts were not manufactured by Kimble, but were purchased from other suppliers. From approximately 1966 through 1977, the Kimble Division also offered 2 for sale a field beading kit which included a small plate and a covering over each of two small hoses. The plate and hose coverings may possibly have contained asbestos, but OwensIllinois cannot yet confirm the ingredients of these materials based upon its business records presently reviewed. Kimble also sold Glass Lined Reactors manufactured by Schwelm for a period of time presently unknown which incorporated gaskets containing asbestos as one of their ingredients. At the end of 1977, OwensIllinois transferred its interest in the glass pipe and Schwelm Reactor product lines and related assets to 01/Schott Process Systems, Inc. in exchange for 50% of the stock of the Corporation and, pursuant to a Sales Agreement dated May 24, 1990, sold its interest in 01/Schott Process Systems, Inc. to Schott Corporation. From 1982 through 1985, Kontes Glass Company, a subsidiary of Owens-Illinois during that time period, purchased certain asbestos-containing materials from other manufacturers and incorporated those materials into four of its products. Based upon the information available to Owens-Illinois to date concerning the nature of Plaintiff's claim, it is Owens-Illinois' understanding that the only Owens-Illinois asbestos-containing product to which the Plaintiff alleges exposure is Kaylo. Therefore, Owens-Illinois objects to responding to these requests in regard to the above described asbestos-rcontaining products sold by Kimble Glass Company and Kontes Glass Company on the basis that any such response would be irrelevant to the subject matter of the pending litigation, would not be reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence and would be burdensome and oppressive. In the event that OwensIllinois is subsequently informed that the Plaintiff alleges exposure to asbestos-containing products sold by Kimble Glass Company or Kontes Glass Company, Owens-Illinois will supplement these responses to requests within a reasonable time after receiving such notice to the extent that a supplementation is necessary in order to respond to the requests in light of the 3 alleged exposure to asbestos-containing products sold by either Kimble Glass Company or Kontes Glass Company. REQUESTS REQUEST NO. 1. All witness statements of any sort, whether signed or unsigned (together with all documents purporting to reflect the same), and a list of those statements for which a privilege from disclosure is claimed. RESPONSE NO. 1. This defendant objects to this request in that it seeks information protected by the attorney-client and/or the attorney work-product privilege. Without waiving the above objection, neither this defendant nor its counsel is in possession of materials referred to in this request. This defendant reserves the right to supplement its response at any time in the future. REQUEST NO. 2. All data as to the physical or mental condition of Charles Johnson, excluding all documents provided you by Plaintiff's counsel. RESPONSE NO. 2. This defendant objects to this request in that it seeks information protected by the attorney-client and/or the attorney work-product privilege. Without waiving the above objection, neither this defendant nor its counsel is in possession of materials referred to in this request. This defendant reserves the right to supplement its response at any time in the future. REQUEST NO. 3. All photographs, models, sketches or diagrams of the Keystone plant. 4 RESPONSE NO. 3 This defendant objects to this request in that it seeks information protected by the attorney-client and/or the attorney work-product privilege. REQUEST NO. 4. All pamphlets, brochures or other documents prepared, distributed or utilized by Defendant to advertise or promote asbestos-containing products manufactured, sold, or distributed by Defendant in the 1950's, 1960's and 1970's. RESPONSE NO. 4. This defendant objects to this request on the basis that it seeks information which is not relevant to the subject matter of this litigation and is not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence, except as it relates, to the period of time during which this defendant engaged in the manufacture, sale and distribution of its Kaylo asbestos-containing products. This defendant ceased the manufacture, sale and distribution of its Kaylo asbestos- containing products in 1958. Without waiving the above objection, refer to Exhibit I. This defendant ceased the manufacture, sale and distribution of its Kaylo asbestos- containing products in 1958. REQUEST NO. 5. All documents reflecting or evidencing a summary of periodic chest x-rays or other medical examinations of the workers employed by Defendant at any site wherein asbestos was used at any time. Stated another way, Plaintiff is requesting the summaries or reports of the health surveys or employee health surveys, which were prepared or used to evaluate the health hazards, if any, arising from the use of asbestos by employees of Defendant. 5 RESPONSE NO. 5. This defendant objects to this request on the grounds that the phrase "health hazards" is vague, ambiguous, and overly broad, seeks information which is not relevant to the subject matter of this litigation, and is not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence, except as it relates to the period of time during which this defendant engaged in the manufacture, sale and distribution of its Kaylo asbestos-containing products. Without waiving the above objection, this defendant has found no documents in its business records responsive to this request for the relevant time period. The documents referred to in defendant's answer to Interrogatory No. 12 in the Venetta Kav Johnson for Charles E. Johnson case filed simultaneously herewith may contain information related to the subject matter of this request. Further, this defendant has no records indicating that any of its employees at its Kaylo manufacturing plants developed any asbestos related disease during the time defendant manufactured Kaylo. REQUEST NO. 6. Each policy of insurance which may be construed to provide coverage for the claim stated in the Complaint. RESPONSE NO. C. This defendant objects to this request on the ground that it seeks irrelevant and immaterial information which is not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. Expressly reserving and without waiving its objections, and subject to them, this defendant states that the issues surrounding its insurance coverage for asbestos claims are complex. Because of disputes over possible insurance coverage, this defendant has engaged in litigation against certain insurance carriers which may provide coverage for asbestos claims. One such lawsuit resulted in a decision of the United States District Court of the District of 6 Columbia in Owens-Illinois, Inc, v. Aetna Casualty and Surety Company. 597 F.Supp. 1515 (D.D.C. 1984). The litigation between this defendant and Aetna Casualty and Surety Co. has been settled. The terms and conditions of the settlement agreement are confidential, and as a consequence, the parties are precluded from disclosing the terms or contents of the agreement. Litigation with other insurance carriers is ongoing. REQUEST MO. 7. All documents reflecting payments or agreements for payments made under any of the policies described in the preceding paragraph which the carrier claims or could claim as a full or partial exhaustion of the policy limits or otherwise affect the amount of coverage available in this case. RESPONSE HO. 7. Refer to this defendant's objection and answer to Request for Production No. 6. REQUEST NO. 8. Each document authored by an employee of Defendant in the course of his employment, dealing in whole or in part with the consequences of exposure to asbestos. RESPONSE NO. 8. This defendant objects to this request as being cumulative, burdensome and oppressive, not relevant to the subject matter of this litigation and not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. REQUEST NO. 9. All medical records of those present or former employees of Defendant who have filed 7 claims for worker's compensation or occupational disease benefits alleging an injury or disease from exposure to asbestos and all personnel and employment records which evidende or reflect the duration, quantity and quality of his or her exposure to asbestos while employed by Defendant. RESPONSE MO. 9. This defendant objects to this request on the basis that it seeks information which is not relevant to the subject matter of this litigation and is not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence, except as it relates to the period of time during which this defendant engaged in the manufacture, sale and distribution of its Kaylo asbestos-containing products.

Kaylo Heat Insulating Block a new type of lightweight mineral ir suiatioa that is tffscitns enough to b used at ordiaary room temperature and resistant enough to perform effe> lively up to 1200 F. Few new products of any kind hav been so thoroughly researched befoc being placed on the market. Kayl Heat Insulating Block is the achieve ment of many years' work by Owen; Illinois Glass Company engineer physicists and chemists. No other material, new or old. s effectively combines the most desii able characteristics of the ideal hea insulation. For instance .. . LOW DENSITY Kaylo Heat Insulating Bloc weighs only 11 pounds per cubic foo This light weight (less than one poun to the board foot) simplifies handling shipping and application. It great! reduces weight --an important advar tage on ships, for an example. C*yriM, 1*41, Uvln, 1M.4 Cwi frtMt t> U.S.A. Notice the clean, straight edge on these insulated precipitator hop pers. Applicators find it easy to do thi kind of work with Kaylo Heat Insulaing Block because they are so easy < cut and yet they have a .avelv hip flexural strength. The s above th hoppers are also insulated with Kayl Heat Insulating Block. Ow THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY The coefficient of conductivity, or K", of Kaylo Heat Insulating Block, s 'uown on the chart on page four, >t. t among the most efficient inulat.-us for medium high temperaures. Its insulation value comes prin1 pally from its fine, interlaced cellular tructure. These cells are so tiny and o numerous that they pres'ent a maerial surface of approximately 140 .cres per cubic foot of insulation. Experience shows that the insulaion value of Kaylo insulation imiroves when the material is put into ervice. EFFECTIVE OVER WIDE TEMPERATURE RANGE Kaylo Heat Insulating Block per forms efficiently not only on tempera:ures in the low pressure steam and hot water range but on temperatures in the superheated steam range as well. This is shown by the flatness of the conductivity curve. One-material cov erage with Kaylo insulation handles applications which often require two thicknesses of different materials. HIGH COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH compressive strength is unuse high for a mineral product of such light weight. Kaylo Heat Insu lating Block withstands compression values equivalent to those of a man's walking on it or even to those of a heel's being ground into it. HIGH FLEXURAL STRENGTH Its flexural strength is higher than the normal requirement for heat insu lation of this type. This strength makes for easy handling and applica tion, and contributes to long service with low maintenance. NO ADDED BINDER Kaylo insulation is an inorganic compound, containing no added binder. Its performance characteris tics, therefore, are not affected by additives, which often reduce insulat ing value, modify effective tempera ture range or otherwise limit per formance. EASY TO APPLY WELL Kaylo Heat Insulating Blocks are clean-cut and trim. They are easy to fit into place to make a good-looking installation. Their "feet" if pleaaeaM and non irritating. They can be cut, scored and sawed with ordinary wood working tools. Finishes that go over the block, whether cement, cloth or other types, can be applied smoothly and with a minimum of effort. No special tools are needed. LOW MOISTURE ABSORPTION Moisture absorption is no prob lem with Kaylo insulation. Even when subjected to an atmosphere of 90% relative humidity and a temperature of 120 F., in standard tests, speci mens absorb less than 1 % moisture by volume. RETAINS EFFECTIVENESS AFTER LONG SERVICE Kaylo Heat Insulating Block re mains strong, free from excessive powdering, and shows little loss in weight or shrinkage after long appli cation to temperatures up to 1200 F. Even conventional tumbling tests, run after prolonged heating, produce relatively little crumbling or break down of the material.

Few new products of any kind have been so thor oughly researched before being placed on the market. Kay lo Heat Insulating Block is the achievement of many years' work by Owens-Illinois Glass Company engi neers, physicists and chemists. It combines the most desirable characteristics of the ideal heat insulation. LOW DENSITY. Kaylo Heat Insulating Block weighs only 11 pounds per cubic foot. This light weight (less than one pound to the board foot) simplifies handling, shipping and application. LOW THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY. The coefficient of conductivity, or i, of Kaylo Heat Insulating Block places it among the most efficient insulations for medium high temperatures. Its insulation value comes principally from its fine, cellular structure. These cells are so tiny and so numerous that they present a material surface of approximately 140 acres per cubic foot of insulation. Experience shows that the efficiency of Kaylo insula tion improves after exposure to service temperatures. EFFECTIVE OVER WIDE TEMPERATURE RANGE. Kaylo Heat Insulating Block performs efficiently not only on temperatures in the low pressure steam and hot water range but on temperatures in the super heated steam range as well. One-material coverage with Kaylo insulation handles applications which often require two thicknesses of different materials. HIGH COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH. Its compressive strength is unusually high for a mineral product of such light weight. HIGH FLEXURAL STRENGTH. Its flexural strength is higher than the normal requirements for heat insula tion of this type. This strength makes for easy hand ling and application, and contributes to long service with low maintenance. NO ADDED BINDER. Kaylo insulation is an inorganic compound, containing no added binder. Its per formance characteristics, therefore, are not affected by additives, which often reduce insulating value, modify effective temperature range or otherwise limit per formance. EASY TO APPLY.

American Structural Products Company, Toledo 1, Ohio. Structural Insulating Mock:--is * near-white, rigid mineral insulating weighing approximately 20 pounds per cubic foot. It is composed ; principally.of calcium, silicate. Except for density and for those characteris tics that are changed by density it is similar to Kaylo Heat Insulating Block, a lightweight insulation used to insulate against heat loss from hot surfaces. Kaylo Structural Insulating Block (20-lb. density) is designed to develop mtfimam strength and fire resistance without sacrificing its advantages of light weight and low thermal conductivity. In fact the practical combination of these four properties--strength, weight, insulating value and fire resist ance--makes it almost unique as a building material. It weighs nominally 20 pounds to the cubic foot (actually on an oven dry from 19.5 to 22 lb.), has a compressive strength of approximately 500 lb. per sq. in., a "k" of 0.66 at 100 mean and outstanding resistance to the travel of heat and flame at building fire temperatures. Kaylo Structural Insulating Block is not a finished build ing material in itself and is not made for exposure to the weather. Its principal uses are as a structural roof tile, or roof deck unit, in which a steel reinforcing mat is inserted at the time of forming, and as a core material. In this latter use it serves as the core of laminated structures where the faces or laminates are applied with adhesives, and also as the core of structural shells or envelopes where the Kaylo core material is simply inserted in the open spaces and held by its own contact or by such conven tional methods as clips or other attachments. In any of these applications it adds rigidity to the structure nd vastly increases insulation value and fire resistance. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Light Weight--Nominal 20-lb. density Kaylo Block is about a third lighter than yellow pine. On an oven-dry basis it weighs from 19.5 to 22 pounds per cubic foot. High Strength--Its compressive strength is approximately 500 lb. per sq. in. with a deformation of 5 per cent. Flexural strength is approximately 175 lb. per sq. in. Fireproof--Kaylo 20-lb. density Structural Insulating Block has been tested at the Underwriters' Laboratories in Chicago and given the following rating, based on com parison with untreated Red Oak as 100. Flame spread....................... 0.0 Fuel contributed..................negligible Smoke produced.................. 0.0 i Oood Insulation Value--At low mean temperatures Kaylo Structural Insulating Block is one of the most efficient structural mineral insulations. At high mean temperatures it still compares favorably with heat insulating materials of its own weight. High light Reflectivity--Where left exposed and untreated (as with the underside of a roof deck) Kaylo Structural Insulating Block has high light reflectivity. Its light re flection factor is from 70 to 80 per cent. Non-Abrasive Surface--Its surface is non-abrasive. It has a somewhat "soapy" feel that makes it pleasant to handle. At the same time it has a firm surface that assures good contact with surfaces applied over it No Added Binder--It contains no added binder, but in stead constitutes its own binder. Hence its characteristics are not modified as to temperature limit, solubility, insu lation value, fire resistance or otherwise by "binder limitations." L INSULATING BLOCK (20-LB. DENSITY) ood Workability--Kaylo Structural Insulating Block is sponsive to wood working tools. It can be sawed with a and saw or power saw, can be routed, tongue-androoved, sanded, and, in fact, run through most woodorking equipment. igh Modulus of Elasticity--The modulus of elasticity of 0-lb. density block is approximately 160,000 lb. per sq. in. ow Specific Hoot--The specific heat of Kaylo Structural nsulating Block is approximately 0.22. :llular Structure--Kaylo Structural Insulating Block is bout 80 per cent inter-communicating air cells. The cells re extremely small, less than a micron in diameter. ow Moisture Absorption--Kaylo Structural Block is hyroscopic. It will absorb moisture from humid air and will each equilibrium at lower moisture contents when exposed o lower humidities. However, because of its extremely mall pore size and other characteristics, its behavior with espect to moisture differs from that of most porous maeri It has unusual capacity to distribute moisture viti. .s mass, and to give it off to surrounding air of ower moisture content. Its moisture absorption when surrounded by humid air s low. Test specimens dried for 24 hours at 215* F., cooled ind then exposed on all surfaces to an atmosphere of 90 ->er cent relative humidity and a temperature of 120* F. >r six hours, absorbed less than one per cent of moisture y volume. onsistent with the common practice for good construcon involving porous insulating materials of high internal irface area, Kaylo Structural Insulating Block should e sealed against moisture on the warm side when it is ibjected to extremely low temperatures. High Wet Strength--Kaylo Structural Insulating Block, like most other insulating materials, is not intended to serve immersed in water or exposed to extremely damp or numid conditions, yet its flerural strength when wet (im mersed 10 hours) is reduced only about 15 per cent. Dimensionally Stable--The dimensions of Kaylo Struct ural Insulating Block change little with changes in moist ure content. Experience has shown from the manufacture of thousands of units of laminated structures that they have unusual dimensional stability and unusual freedom from warping. Available with and without Reinforcing--In the form of roof tile Kaylo Structural Insulation is available with a steel reinforcing mat. In the form of core material for var ious types of structure it is available without reinforcing. Accepts Nalls and Screws--Both nails and screws can be used with Kaylo Structural Block. Tables showing holding power of both are available on request. Nails should be of the cement-coated type without barbs that abrade the sides of the opening they make as they are driven into the block. Galvanized or non-ferrous nails may be used where greater resistance to corrosion is required. Screws may be inserted either with or without drilling a pilot hole. Sizes--Kaylo Structural Insulating Block is made in a standard size of 18 x 36 inches. Since most uses involve manufacturing operations, thick nesses that are practical can best be worked out with the manufacturer of Kaylo Insulating Products after approxi mate quantities needed are known. These will usually be between one and two inches thick. Certain thicknesses are suggested by certain building re quirements. A thickness of from IH to 2 inches of Kaylo Structural Insulating Block is required to withstand a typical building fire for one hour--usually somewhat more for a partition than for a door because of the greater per formance required of a partition. 20-lb. and 11-lb. Density Block Can Be Used In Combination. Where two thicknesses of insulation are used to build up an insulating structure it is : jssible to use the two den sities in combination to develop the best insulation value strength and fire resistance.
