A more detailed description of our business and our subsidiaries is contained in the documents that we have incorporated by reference in this prospectus, which are listed under the heading "Where You Can Find More Information About Us." 2 4 USE OF PROCEEDS All net proceeds from the sale of the shares covered by this prospectus will go to the selling shareholders who offer and sell their shares. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling shareholders. SELLING SHAREHOLDERS AND DISTRIBUTION All of the shares of common stock registered for sale under this prospectus are owned by the selling shareholders. All of the shares offered by the selling shareholders were acquired when we purchased the assets of Rock Products. The shares held by the selling shareholders do not exceed one percent of our outstanding shares of common stock. The names of the selling shareholders and the amount of shares owned by each are set forth in the following table:
Shares Beneficially Owned Selling Shareholder Prior to Offering (1) ------------------- --------------------- Number (1) Percent ---------- ------- Bill Lynwood Johnston, Jr. 154,257 (2) Benjamin A. Johnston 43,101 (2) Matthew W. Johnston 44,796 (2)
1) All share ownership information was provided to us by the selling shareholders. (2) Less than 1% of total Vulcan common stock outstanding. In the past three years, none of the selling shareholders has had a material relationship with us, except that Bill Johnston is a non-officer employee of ours. The selling shareholders may sell the shares in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices. In addition, the selling shareholders may sell some or all of their shares through: - a block trade in which a broker-dealer may resell a portion of the block, as principal, in order to facilitate the transaction; - purchase by a broker-dealer, as principal, and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; or - ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which a broker solicits purchasers. When selling the shares, the selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions. For example, the selling shareholders may: - enter into transactions involving short sales of the shares by broker-dealers; - sell shares short themselves and redeliver such shares to close out their short positions; - enter into option or other types of transactions that require the selling shareholder to deliver shares to a broker-dealer, who will then recall or transfer the shares under this prospectus; or - loan or pledge the shares to a broker-dealer, who may sell the loaned shares or, in the event of default, sell the pledged shares. The selling shareholders may negotiate and pay broker-dealers commissions, discounts or concessions for their services. Broker-dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may allow other broker-dealers to participate in resales. However, the selling shareholders and any broker-dealers involved in the sale or resale of the shares may qualify as "underwriters" within the meaning of the Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act of 1933. In addition, the broker-dealers' commissions, discounts or concessions may qualify as underwriters' 3 5 compensation under the 1933 Act. If the selling shareholders qualify as "underwriters," they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of Section 5(b)(2) of the 1993 Act. In addition to selling their shares under this prospectus, the selling shareholders may: - agree to indemnify any broker-dealer or agent against certain liabilities related to the selling of the shares, including liabilities arising under the 1933 Act; - transfer their shares in other ways not involving market makers or established trading markets, including directly by gift, distribution, or other transfer; or - sell their shares under Rule 144 of the 1933 Act rather than under this prospectus, if the transaction meets the requirements of Rule 144.

Denson, III, our Senior Vice President-Law and Secretary, will issue a legal opinion on our behalf about the validity of the shares offered by this prospectus.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Section 14A:3-5 of the New Jersey Business Corporation Act empowers a New Jersey corporation to indemnify present and former directors, officers, employees or agents of the corporation and certain other specified persons. Article IV of the By-Laws of the Registrant provides as follows: (a) Subject to the provisions of this Article IV, the corporation shall indemnify the following persons to the fullest extent permitted and in the manner provided by and the circumstances described in the laws of the State of New Jersey, including Section 14A:3-5 of the New Jersey Business Corporation Act and any amendments thereof or supplements thereto: (i) any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation; (ii) any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of any constituent corporation absorbed by the corporation in a consolidation or merger, but only to the extent that (a) the constituent corporation was obligated to indemnify such person at the effective date of the merger or consolidation or (b) the claim or potential claim of such person for indemnification was disclosed to the corporation and the operative merger or consolidation documents contain an express agreement by the corporation to pay the same; (iii) any person who is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, trustee, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other domestic or foreign corporation, or any partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, whether or not for profit; and (iv) the legal representative of any of the foregoing persons (collectively, a "Corporate Agent"). (b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the corporation shall not be obligated under this Article IV to provide indemnification (i) to any bank, trust company, insurance company, partnership or other entity, or any director, officer, employee or agent thereof or (ii) to any other person who is not a director, officer or employee of the corporation, in respect of any service by such person or entity, whether at the request of the corporation or by agreement therewith, as investment advisor, actuary, custodian, trustee, fiduciary or consultant to any employee benefit plan. II-1 8 (c) To the extent that any right of indemnification granted hereunder requires any determination that a Corporate Agent shall have been successful on the merits or otherwise in any Proceeding (as hereinafter defined) or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the Corporate Agent shall be deemed to have been "successful" if, without any settlement having been made by the Corporate Agent, (i) such Proceeding shall have been dismissed or otherwise terminated or abandoned without any judgment or order having been entered against the Corporate Agent, (ii) such claim, issue or other matter therein shall have been dismissed or otherwise eliminated or abandoned as against the Corporate Agent, or (iii) with respect to any threatened Proceeding, the Proceeding shall have been abandoned or there shall have been a failure for any reason to institute the Proceeding within a reasonable time after the same shall have been threatened or after any inquiry or investigation that could have led to any such Proceeding shall have been commenced. The Board of Directors or any authorized committee thereof shall have the right to determine what constitutes a "reasonable time" or an "abandonment" for purposes of this paragraph (c), and any such determination shall be conclusive and final. (d) To the extent that any right of indemnification granted hereunder shall require any determination that the Corporate Agent has been involved in a Proceeding by reason of his or her being or having been a Corporate Agent, the Corporate Agent shall be deemed to have been so involved if the Proceeding involves action allegedly taken by the Corporate Agent for the benefit of the corporation or in the performance of his or her duties or the course of his or her employment for the corporation. (e) If a Corporate Agent shall be a party defendant in a Proceeding, other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, and the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee of disinterested directors shall determine that it is in the best interests of the corporation for the corporation to assume the defense of any such Proceeding, the Board of Directors or such committee may authorize and direct that the corporation assume the defense of the Proceeding and pay all expenses in connection therewith without requiring such Corporate Agent to undertake to pay or repay any part thereof. Such assumption shall not affect the right of any such Corporate Agent to employ his or her own counsel or to recover indemnification under this By-law to the extent that he may be entitled thereto. (f) As used herein, the term "Proceeding" shall mean and include any pending, threatened or completed civil, criminal, administrative or arbitrative action, suit or proceeding, and any appeal therein and any inquiry or investigation which could lead to such action, suit or proceeding. (g) The right to indemnification granted under this Article IV shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which any Corporate Agent seeking indemnification hereunder may be entitled. The Company maintains directors and officers liability insurance which insures against liabilities that directors and officers of the Company may incur in such capacities. II-2 9 ITEM 16 EXHIBITS

*Incorporated by reference. **Previously filed. ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (a) (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and(a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement. II-3 10 (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (4) If the registrant is a foreign private issuer, to file a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to include any financial statements required by Rule 3-19 of this chapter at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act need not be furnished, provided, that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, the financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (a)(4) and other information necessary to insure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Registration Statements on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act or Rule 3-19 of this Chapter if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished with the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference in the Form F-3. (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed the initial bona fide offering thereof. (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Amendment No. 1 to Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Birmingham, State of Alabama, as of April 23, 1999.
