SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION. No funds were involved in the formation of the group by the Reporting Persons. It is anticipated that the source of funds for the transaction(s) proposed by the Reporting Persons will be loans from institutional lenders and an issuance or issuances of debt securities, but the exact forms of such loans and securities have not been determined. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION. On October 17, 1997, the Original Reporting Persons, acting as a group, presented to Sybron's Board of Directors a proposal to acquire, through an entity to be formed by them, all of the issued and outstanding Shares, not owned by the Original Reporting Persons, for a purchase price of $32 to $33 per Share in cash, with the result that the Shares would become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act. On December 11, 1997, Sybron entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") by and among Sybron, Sybron Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings"), a Delaware Corporation and Acquisition, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings. A copy of the Merger Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 2 to Sybron's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on December 16, 1997. Pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Acquisition will merge with and into Sybron (the "Merger"), with Sybron being the surviving corporation, and Sybron's stockholders (other than Holdings and Acquisition) will receive $34.50 per Share, in cash. The Merger Agreement provides that holders of Shares (other than Holdings and Acquisition) would be entitled to additional consideration under certain circumstances if, within 18 months after the Merger, all or part of Sybron is disposed of by Holdings. The terms of the Merger Agreement require, among other things, the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares that are not beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons or by persons that are affiliates or associates of the Reporting Persons. The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Merger Agreement which has been filed as Exhibit 2 to this Statement. The increased price per Share was agreed upon after extensive negotiations between certain of the Original Reporting Persons and a Special Committee consisting of two disinterested outside members of Sybron's Board of Directors appointed to evaluate the proposal. Chase Securities, Inc. is acting as financial advisor to the Special Committee. As a result of the Merger, the Shares would be delisted from the American Stock Exchange and become eligble for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act. On January 7, 1998, in response to an unsolicited offer by GenCorp to acquire all of the Shares in a merger in which holders of Shares would receive $38 per Share, in cash, CVC on behalf of 399 Venture, notified GenCorp that it intended to remain a stockholder in Sybron. Later that day, Dr. Klein and Mr. Schroeder each notified the Board of Directors of Sybron that they supported the position expressed by CVC in its letter to -35- Gencorp. Copies of the letters sent by CVC to GenCorp and by Dr. Klein and Mr. Schroeder to the Sybron Board of Directors are filed herewith as Exhibits 3, 4 and 5. Later on January 7, the Company announced that its Board of the Directors had unanimously rejected the unsolicited GenCorp offer after concluding that the offer was not viable in light of the holdings of the Reporting Persons and the matters described in the preceding paragraph. On January 19, 1998, the other Reporting Persons agreed to join in the group previously formed by the Original Reporting Persons for the purposes set forth above. On January 19, 1998, each of the Reporting Persons entered into the amended and restated filing agreement filed herewith as Exhibit 1. At the present time, other than the actions described in the preceding paragraph, the Reporting Persons have no specific plans or proposals that would relate to or result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4. However, the Reporting Persons may consider any such plans or proposals in the future, if deemed appropriate. ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSURER.

Yasinsky Chairman GenCorp 175 Ghent Road Fairlawn, OH 44333-3300 FAX: (330)869-4410 Dear John: In light of the obvious confusion on your side concerning Citicorp Venture Capital's intentions regarding Sybron, I thought it might be helpful to reiterate CVC's views on this matter. By way of background, Citicorp Venture Capital's philosophy is to be a long-term investor supporting management in the growth of their companies. As I indicated, CVC continues to be quite enthusiastic about the prospects of Sybron Chemical and is committed to remaining invested in the company. Consistent with this, we have no intentions of selling our position at this time. We are participating with the buying group in the transaction that has been approved by Sybron's Board and Special Committee because we recognize that the investment perspective of Sybron's public stockholders may differ from our own. Due, in large part, to the illiquidity and lack of analyst attention that have resulted from Sybron's size, Sybron's stock performance has been mediocre. The transaction approved by the Board is designed to provide the public stockholders the opportunity to elect to receive a fair price in cash for their shares that will represent an attractive premium over historic trading prices. We think that a substantial majority of the public stockholders will find this alternative attractive. If we are wrong about this, however, and the public stockholders wish to continue as partners with us in Sybron, we will be happy to accept that vote of confidence and go forward with Sybron as an independent public company. We are confident that Sybron's management shares our philosophy. We hope this will serve to clear up any confusion that may exist in your mind about our position. Sincerely, /S/ Michael A.
