PLAINTIFF'S EXHIBIT CTD010601 We're helping industry appreciate the "locked in" benefits of asbestos with ads like this one. We want our customers to continue taking advantage of the unique properties of asbestos. Too often, their ability to do so is hindered by decisions based on emotion rather than factual information. So we re calmly and repeatedly explaining the facts about asbestos-containing products in a series of full page, four-color ads, appearing regularly in the industrial edition of Business Week. The advertising program is designed to let industry management know that in an extensive range of finished products, such as asbestos/cement sheets and pipe, gasketing materials, asphalt-based coatings, latex and resin-bound papers, and friction materials, the asbestos is locked in" by various binders to form environmentally safe materials. And once locked in," the release of asbestos into the environment will not be significant during normal product use. Our investment in advertising is not nearly as large as that directed toward developing safer ways to ship, handle, and use asbestos. But in many ways, it's equally important. We think it's part of our job as the world's leading producer of asbestos. And part of our continuing commitment to the future of asbestos. Asbestos is not a problem when used properly. It's locked-in to all of these products. In thousands of finished products, asbestos serves an essential function that has not been dupli cated on a cost performance basis. Like other naturallyoccurring minerals, asbestos can be a potential health hazard when inhaled. However, with techno logical advances and established work practices, along with industry and Federal regulations, it can be safely processed, transported, and handled. In addition, there are virtually no hazards associated with the proper end use of products in which the asbestos fibers have been encapsulated or "locked-in" by environmentally safe binders. For this reason, we advocate the elimination of its use in friable products in which it cannot be safely bound. As the world's leading asbestos supplier, we are vitally concerned with its safe handling and application.

Ford Mr Ford's technical and practical knowledge in the de velopment and operation ot felts, particularly those used in the asbestos cement industry, is so extensive that his advice has been sought over the years by firms around the world He is the inventor of needle reinforced nylon felts and is a pioneer and patentee in the heat-setting of synthetic fibers. In 1961 he introduced the application of needling methods which revolutionized the manufacture of certain classes of felt, while a combination of these techniques greatly lengthened the life span of natural fibers Mr Ford was awarded the Queen's Silver Jubilee medal in 1977 for services to export. Earlier in his career, he was Managing Director of Thomas Hardman & Sons Ltd. and later became Managing Director of Scapa Textiles Ltd. He retired in July of 1979. Since retiring and after over 50 years developing felts and servicing the AC in dustry, Mr. Ford advises he has had the time to give much thought to improvements in felt control and cleaning and ways of increasing quality and production on AC machines. This has resulted in the following article and in applying for patents cover ing many of the developments. The author trusts that what he has written will he of interest to all producers and will provoke serious thought. The items marked are sublet to British Patent application No. 8102245 and queries regarding these should be sent direct to Mr. J. Ford, 39 Newton Drive, Greenmount, Bury BL8 40H, England. Part I--Improvements Which Can Easily Be Incorporated Into Existing Machines A function of the felt in asbestos cement (AC) production is to reduce the water content of the layer from the pick-up to the man drel or forming bowl and the conventional way is to use vacuum boxes of increasing vacuum before the pressure at the drive roll. Whilst this is effective, it is expensive in energy consumption and I have for several years advocated a grooved "Drive" Roll. This has been installed with success and failure in many plants but usually without detailed consideration of the geometry of the grooved roll. The object of the grooved roll is to provide a receptacle for water pressed out of the layer and the felt at the point of maximum con tact, and it has to be estimated by the amount of water in the layer Page 4 ASBESTOS-July 1981 CTD010606 AC PRODUCTION FELTS--CONTINUED and the amount of water in the felt being used. It is useless to just groove a roll and use felts of different water-holding character istics. I am a firm believer in the grooved "Drive'' Roll, correctly grooved according to the type of felt used, for this can reduce the vacuum necessary to reduce moisture in the layer and show a large saving in energy at the vacuum pumps. It also does reduce delammation of the layers. Immediately the felt passes the pressure point between the "Drive" Roll and the mandrel or forming bowl, tension on the felt is reduced and length measurements of the felt before the "Drive" Roll and immediately after can show a difference of up to 4%. On leaving the "Drive" Roll, the felt goes through a series of rolls to allow the felt to be tensioned. It is often treated by a felt whipper and passed over a worm or scroll roll. Felt cleaning is as sisted by water sprays, often at high pressure, and followed by a suction box. Finally it is sometimes passed through mangle rolls and presented to the vats for pick-up. Let us first consider what we require when the felt is presented to the vats for pick-up: 1) a smooth surface to give good pick-up; 2) as little water content as possible; 3) as clean as possible to en sure maximum absorbency. Then consider how this can be achieved. High Pressure Spray Whether or not felt cleaning is more effective when high pres sure sprays are applied whilst the felt is relatively slack or under maximum tension, l have not proved, but it seems to me that, if tension is maintained whilst the high pressure spray is applied and then the felt is "mangled," water is expressed and the relaxation in tension after the mangle rolls allows the felt to expand and to be more absorbent when presented to the layer on the vats. I envisage therefore the felt passing from the "Drive" Roll and through mangle rolls, which are driven at the same surface speed as the "Drive" Roll, and in between these are the water sprays followed by a suction box and then by a very modified whipper which I call a "Flicker Roll "0 The "Flicker Roll" is 8" to 15' in diameter, depending on the width of the machine and preferably has four removable flexible plastic fins extending some 2" to 3" beyond the diameter of the roll. The fins are in contact with the felt and rotate at a reasonably fast speed in the direction reverse to the felt. Object is not to ASBESTOS-July 1981 Page 5 AC PRODUCTION FELTS-CONTINUED vibrate or beat the felt as with a conventional whipper or beater, but to make rapid or almost continual contact with the felt. The plastic fins are easily replaceable and slide into grooves machined into the roll. If correctly installed, it is not necessary to remove the roll to replace the fins. To obtain extended life from the plastic fins, it is desirable that adjustment should be provided to allow the roll to be moved nearer to the felt as wear occurs on the fins. The advantages of this system are: 1) the drive to the felt is in creased (by greater contact with the "Drive" Roll and by the supplementary drive of the mangle rolls); 2) the "Flicker Roll" removes any surface adhesions and the surface water from the face of the felt; 3) the felt has been conditioned and cleaned at the earliest opportunity and is given the maximum time to expand and become more absorbent before being called upon to pick up the layer. I Envisage the Use of the Speed Controlled Expanded Worm or Scroll Roll Whilst worm or scroll rolls are widely used to marginally widen or to minimize creases in a felt, its application in its usual form is haphazard and technically unsound. Indeed, if the worm roll rotates at exactly the speed of the felt, i.e., without any frictional retardation, its effect is minimal. If the worm roll is retarded then the effect on the felt is maximized on the center of the felt and its effect on the rest of the felt is nil. The object of the expanded worm roll is to provide an even and constant widening effect on the felt, from minimum to maximum. Speed control of the worm roll can be achieved with a simple friction brake, or preferably with sophisti cated electronic control. What is Achieved by the Speed Controlled Worm Roll? If the worm roll is slightly retarded then the felt will be kept straight and free from creases. If the worm roll is further retarded then more persistent felt creases will be removed and the felt will be widened. If the worm roll is made stationary for a few hours (and this can be done without damage to the felt) the width of the felt can be increased by up to 4%, depending on the wrap of the felt around the worm roll. This will remove any felt creasing and, more importantly, will open the felt and increase permeability. Apart from felt control, the feature of the speed controlled worm roll is its ability, over a two-hour stationary period, to widen the felt by up to 4% with a consequent increase in permeability of 4% and consequently cleaning the felt.

It will not rectify such angular displacements as: It relies on the principle that the drive or anvil roll delivers a con stant length of felt. Thus, if a free rotating crowned roll follows the "Drive" Roll, then the center of the felt has further to travel and, in consequence, the felt assumes a curvature with the indication line trailing, i.e. w. If, however, the crowned roll is stationary, and if the friction between it and the felt is significant, then the reverse happens and the retarding friction on the felt is greater on the longer circumference of the felt resulting in an indication line leading, i.e. /---s . A variable braking on the crowned roll can therefore vary the squareness of the felt from to w and controlled braking can ensure the accurate alignment of the felt, assuring maximum permeability and efficiency of the felt. Part II--Radical Developments of the Future Delamination Problem When Increasing the Number of Vats The problems of delamination in making thick-walled, largediameter pipes from twd vats and corrugated sheets from four vats is well known. The solution of using very heavy felts for a short run is uneconomical. My solution to the problem is to amal gamate or consolidate the lamim from the vats by the use of a con solidating roll. The felt and layers pass preferably over a grooved roll, directly coupled to a top pressure roll. Around the top pressure roll may pass a second felt of knuckly construction. The benefit is that the system employs the grooved roll principle and pressure to amalgamate the lamini and remove water and the knuckly felt gives an indentation in the face of the layer, a tech nique which greatly increases adhesion at roll-up. Additionally, the moisture expressed by the consolidating roll reduces the energy required at the suction boxes and the fiber disturbance occa sioned by high vacuum. The Possibility of Employing Additional Vats by an Auxiliary Web Forming Arrangement Following the application of a second felt it becomes possible to increase production of many products by up to 50% by the intro duction of auxiliary web formation and to increase the strengths of Page 8 ASBESTOS-July 1981 CTD010610 WHENT IT TOOK T IIEWYOR WENT OFF, ACUATE E CENTRE.

It also overcomes the problem of "fall off" experienced on multi-vat machines. The arrangement consists of extending the consolidating felt, now called the amalgamating felt, so that it picks up one or more lammi from additional vats and amalgamates this layer with the layer from the conventional machine. Obviously, difficulties may be encountered in perfecting my ideas, many of which are subject to patent applications, but even tually I am confident they offer an opportunity for greater produc tivity and improved quality. THE COPYRIGHT OF THIS ARTICLE IS HELD BY MR J FORD At the Wallerawang Power Station in New South Wales, Aus tralia, extensive use is made of Super Six corrugated asbestoscement sheets and pipes, products of James Hardie Industries Ltd. Water, pumped at the rate of 22,000 gallons per minute, passes through steam condensers m the power station and has to be cooled. It is run through over 4300 lineal yards of the asbestoscement pipes in the 420-foot-high cooling tower. These pipes are fitted with spray nozzles. The warm water is sprayed from the pipes and falls through two layers of packs of Super Six cor rugated sheets standing on edge. The packs use 110,000 corrugated, asbestos-cement sheets. They are known as film-type packs because the water forms a film as it descends over the corrugations. Packers maintain space be tween sheets and the upper layer of packs is at right angle to the lower layer As the water falls, it is cooled by an updraught of air which is formed within the hyperbolic shape of the tower. Following the lowering the water temperature by 20 F during the cooling process, the water is recycled from a cooling pond. Only a small amount of water is lost during each cycle through evaporation. Hardie's asbestos-cement pipes are also used at Wallerawang for dust disposal and water supply lines.

(ACL) reports that in late March General Dynamics Corporation (which owns 54 6% of ACL) was invited by the Province of Quebec to reopen negotiations on the sale of its shares in ACL Meetings are taking place and discussions have been friendly'' and the company is hopeful that a result acceptable to both par ties will be achieved, without expropriation. As this is written, news reporters are quoting Quebec Premier Rene Levesque as saying " . what ever the outcome of these talks, whether the solution is friendly or not, the government has not changed its mind. It will be solved one way or another by the fall of 1981." Campbell Buys Shares In United Campbell Resources Inc. increased its stake in United Asbestos Inc to about 15% from 10% Chairman Ned Goodman advised his company has not offered any merger proposals but that the managements of both com panies had met to discuss options for future consideration. United served notice that it would fight any predatory action designed to merge it with Campbell or its affiliate, Camchib Resources The company has since re tained Smith Barney Harris Upham & Co. as its financial advisor to evaluate strategic options, including the possible sale of the asbestos min ing firm. Chairman Philip M. Malouf stated that other companies are also interested in United Asbestos New Stretch Wrap Units For J-M Canada Johns-Manville Canada Inc installed fwo new stretch wrapping machines at Mill 5 which wrap pallets of bags with a polyethylene film to form a solid bundle.

Turner & Newall Ltd. has grown into an international concern with five worldwide operating divisions--plastics and industrial materials, auto motive components, construction and engineering materials, chemicals and mining. Asbestos-based products now represent less than half its sales In its annual report for the year ended December 31. 1980, it was written that the recession deepened in the second half of the year, the sterling exchange rate rose further and, despite the very tough measure taken,T&N could not avoid the depressing effects. United Kingdom gov ernment cuts in spending m the public sector had a snowball effect, par ticularly on the demand for construction materials. The market for U K automotive components reflected the problems of the European motor in dustry and the impact of the recession. TBA Industrial Products substan tially maintained its exports of industrial textiles and other products but at reduced overall margins. Against the general trend, industrial gaskets, re lated products and engineering materials were the strongest performers of the company's U K. operations. The mining companies fell short of fore casts made at the beginning of the year as the large new mill at Zimbabwe ran into commissioning difficulties because of the shortage of available technically skilled people and the problems underground encountered at Swaziland Turner & Newall sold its interest in several businesses--Newalls Insulation in the U K and Beil Asbestos Mines, Atlas Turner and Cassiar Resources (23.4%) in Canada During the year under review, Sibex (Con structions), specialists in the sealing of pipelines, was acquired and since year-end negotiations were completed for the purchase of Stag Packings m South Africa, maker of industrial products. It was recently announced that T&N's manufacturing subsidiary in Zimbabwe is having discussions with the industrial group Mashonaland Holdings, Zimbabwe's largest brick manufacturer, its sole producer of electric motors and an important pro ducer of electrical switchgear Total sales for the year 1980 amounted to 635-million compared with 592-miilion in 1979 and trading profit reached 27-million vs. 38-million A net loss of of 20 1 -million was incurred for the year compared with a net profit of 10 2-million in 1979. Zimbabwe assets were reconsolidated, add ing 95-million to reserves. Contributions to trading operations were 28 7% from plastics and industrial materials, 26 6% from automotive components. 18.6% from mining, 13.9% from chemicals and 12.2% from construction materials. Geographically the contributions were 42.1% from the United Kingdom, 24.2% from Africa, 17 4% from the Americas, 8.3% from Europe and 8% from Asia and Australasia Plastics & Industrial Materials--TBA closed its factory in Northern Ire land but installed additional new equipment for the Industrial Textiles and Belting Divisions and changed working methods to increase productivity and reduce costs. The market position of alternatives to asbestos-based materials was improved and more equipment which will both increase effi ciency and improve the already high standard of safety during the manu facture of asbestos products was installed Automotive Components--In the U K , Ferodo's share of the replace ment market was maintained and its penetration of the original equipment Page 28 ASBESTOS -- July 1981 TIN ANNUAL REPORT--CONTINUED market was increased by winning the disc brake bad and clutch facing contracts for the Ford Escort and the Austin Metro As Turners Engineerng Products (Nigeria) began to become profitable, the company was hit by an onslaught of counterfeit friction materials from Taiwan. The minority shareholding m Hardie-Ferodo. Australia, was sold to James Hardie Indus tries and shortly after the year-end a joint venture company was formed in Korea to make friction materials. Another joint venture company manufac turing industrial gaskets was established m Mexico Construction Materials--TAC Construction Materials reported a signifi cant increase in sales of Limpet nonasbestos fire protection board One of the growing markets for asbestos-cement materials is the use of Thrutone Slates for domestic roofing At a fraction of the price of natural slate and lighter than both natural slate and concrete tiles, the slates are being ex tensively used to refurbish terraced houses The pipe factory at Erith was re-equipped and operating performance improved, although spending by public authorities on water schemes was almost eliminated later in the year In France, Dagard et Fils was sold. In Zimbabwe, the Turnall a-c pipe machine was modernized and capacity increased. During 1980, the com pany acquired Trinidad Asphalt. Mining--Demand for asbestos fiber weakened considerably, particu larly in Europe and North America, but restricted output of high quality fibers from the Group s African mines caused by mining difficulties and the commissioning of new plant proved a greater handicap to increasing sales than the condition of the market The performance of Turners Asbestos Fibres in the sale and distribution of fiber to Group and third party customers was again satisfactory Asbestos Corporation Ltd. In 1980, sales dropped 33% from 1979 for Asbestos Corporation Ltd The greatest impact was due to a three-month strike at the Thetford Mines operations Other problems included recessionary conditions in the U S. and Western Europe, very high interest rates which discouraged buying; a shortage of hard currencies in several developing nations, negative pub licity concerning environmental issues, and the threat of expropriation by the Quebec government, with its consequent effect on sales, heavy legal costs and reduced efficiency by diversion of effort As a result, earnings in the first half of 1980 showed a loss of C$3.8-million In the second half a profit of $6 3-million was generated, resulting in earnings of $2 5-million for the year Second-half earnings included foreign exchange gams of $3.5-million Net income in 1980 was $2.5-million compared with $17 7-million a year earlier While 1981 is expected to show improvement, many of the adverse conditions experienced in 1980 are continuing. Over the longer term, pros pects remain highly favorable, with market research indicating continued increasing demand for asbestos-cement grades of asbestos fiber (85% of Asbestos Corporation's production is suitable for asbestos cement) In the Free World, no new significant production of a-c grades is forecast for the next few years and the USSR appears to require most of its production for internal consumption Competitive products such as ductile iron, concrete and plastic pipe or aluminum and galvanized sheet cost more and require four to seven times more energy to produce than a-c pipe or sheet Never ASBESTOS - Juh, 1981 Page 29 ASBESTOS CORPORATION ANNUAL REPORT-CONTINUED theless, the fully industrialized nations appear to prefer more sophisticated products and while their asbestos cement consumption levels may decrease, the possible reduction in demand will be more than offset by growing requirements of the developing countries. During the year 1980. asbestos and ungraded fiber inventories, valued at the lower of cost to produce or selling price, totaled $87,7-million. Reduced work schedules were instituted in late 1980 and will remain in ef fect until the anticipated market improvement occurs. In addition, aggres sive action is being taken to reduce costs and inventories. Proven ore reserves at year-end 1980 were 221,151,000 tons vs 229.132.000 tons at the end of 1979, 1980 reserves included 84-million tons at the King Beaver Mine, 72-million tons at the British Canadian Mine, 31 6-million tons at Nor mandie, 15 7-million tons at Asbestos Hill and 18-million tons at other pro perties Some 8.5-million tons of ore were mined at Thetford and Asbestos Hill m 1980. At Asbestos Hill. 3 3-million tons of proven ore were re classified as probable and at King Beaver. 3 6-million tons of probable ore were reclassified as proven following additional diamond drilling and de tailed mine planning. In addition, there are probable and possible reserves of about 250-million tons The amount of asbestos produced at Thetford was 158,200 tons in 1980 compared with 219,600 tons in 1979 Production at Asbestos Hill-Nordenham was 82.000 tons in 1980 against 92,000 the prior year CLOSE--JUNE 16, 1981 Abitibi Asbestos Advocate Mines Armstrong World Ind Armstrong/pfd 3 75 Asarco Asbestos Corporation Bendix Bendix/pfd Brmco Campbell Resources Carlisle CertamTeed Charter Conso.
