BUSINESS The Lubrizol Corporation was organized under the laws of Ohio in 1928. The company began business as a compounder of special-purpose lubricants, and in the early 1930's was among the first to commence research in the field of lubricant additives. Today, the company is a full service supplier of performance chemicals to diverse markets worldwide. These specialty chemical products are created through the application of advanced chemical, mechanical and biological technologies to enhance the performance and quality of the customer products in which they are used. The company develops, produces and sells specialty additive systems for gasoline and diesel engine lubricating oils, for automatic transmission fluids and for gear oils, and marine and tractor lubricants. The company also supplies specialty products for industrial lubricants and functional fluids, fuel additives and diversified specialty chemical products. Prior to December 1, 1992, the company had a separately reportable Agribusiness segment. That segment developed, produced and marketed planting seeds and specialty vegetable oils, and also conducted strategic biotechnology research and development. As described in Note 16 to the Financial Statements (included in the company's 1994 Annual Report to its shareholders and incorporated herein by reference), the company transferred substantially all of its Agribusiness segment, other than the specialty vegetable oil operations, to Mycogen Corporation and a joint venture partnership formed with Mycogen. The transferred assets were related to the seed business activities of the company's former Agrigenetics Division. The Agribusiness assets and operations retained by the company are not reportable as a separate industry segment after 1992. Financial information for the industry segments, prior to December 1, 1992, is contained in Note 14 to the Financial Statements included in the company's 1994 Annual Report to its shareholders and is incorporated herein by reference. SPECIALTY CHEMICALS PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS. The company's principal products are additive systems for gasoline and diesel engine oils, automatic transmission fluids, gear oils, industrial fluids, metalworking compounds and fuels. The company also offers other specialty chemical products. Additives for engine oils accounted for 51% of consolidated revenues in 1994, 50% in 1993, and 48% in 1992. Additives for driveline oils accounted for 24%, 19% and 18% of consolidated revenues for these respective periods. Additives improve the lubricants and fuels used in cars, trucks, buses, off-highway equipment, marine engines and industrial applications. In lubricants, additives enable oil to withstand a broader range of temperatures, limit the buildup of sludge and varnish deposits, reduce wear, inhibit the formation of foam, rust and corrosion, and retard oxidation. In fuels, additives help maintain efficient operation of the fuel delivery system, help control deposits and corrosion, improve combustion and assist in preventing decomposition during storage. 3 Due to the variety in the properties and applications of oils, a number of different chemicals are used to formulate the company's products. Each additive combination is designed to fit the characteristics of the customer's base oil and the level of performance specified. Engine oils for passenger cars contain a combination of chemical additives which usually includes one or more detergents, dispersants, oxidation inhibitors and wear inhibitors, pour point depressants and viscosity improvers. Other chemical combinations are used in heavy duty engine oils for trucks and off-highway equipment and in formulations for gear oils, automatic transmission fluids, industrial oils, metalworking fluids, and gasoline, diesel and residual fuels. COMPETITION. The chemical additive field is highly competitive in terms of price, product performance and customer service. The company's principal competitors, both in the United States and overseas, are four major petroleum companies and one chemical company. The petroleum companies produce lubricant and fuel additives for their own use, and also sell additives to others. These competing companies are also customers of Lubrizol. Excluding viscosity improvers, management believes, based on volume sold, that the company is the largest supplier to the petroleum industry of performance chemicals for lubricants. CUSTOMERS. In the United States, the company markets its additive products through its own sales organization. The company's additive customers consist primarily of oil refiners and independent oil blenders and are located in more than 100 countries. Approximately 60% of the company's sales are made to customers outside of North America. The company's ten largest customers, most of which are international oil companies and a number of which are groups of affiliated entities, accounted for approximately 45% of consolidated sales in 1994. Although the loss of any one of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the company's business, each is made up of a number of separate business units that the company believes make independent purchasing decisions with respect to chemical additives. Sales to Royal Dutch Petroleum Company (Shell) and its affiliates accounted for 9% of consolidated sales in 1994. RAW MATERIALS. The company utilizes a broad variety of chemical raw materials in the manufacture of its additives and uses oil in processing and blending additives. These materials are obtainable from several sources, and for the most part are derived from petroleum. Unstable political and economic conditions in the Middle East have caused and may continue to cause the cost of raw materials to fluctuate significantly; however, the availability of raw materials to the company has not been significantly affected when these conditions occurred. The company expects raw materials to be available in adequate quantities during 1995. RESEARCH, TESTING AND DEVELOPMENT. The company has historically emphasized research and has developed a large percentage of the additives it manufactures and sells. Technological developments in the design of engines and other automotive equipment, combined with rising demands for environmental protection and fuel economy, require increasingly sophisticated chemical additives to meet industry performance standards. These standards change periodically and the frequency of these performance upgrades compress the time cycles for new product development and affect the company's technical spending patterns. -2- 4 Research and development expenditures were $90.7 in 1994, $88.5 million in 1993 and $76.2 million for 1992. These amounts were equivalent to 5.7%, 5.8% and 5.3% of the respective revenues for such years. These amounts include expenditures for the performance evaluation of additive developments in engines and other types of mechanical equipment as well as expenditures for the development of specialty chemicals for industrial applications. In addition, $74.8 million, $83.0 million and $63.6 million was spent in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, for technical service activities, principally for evaluation in mechanical equipment of specific lubricant formulations designed for the needs of petroleum industry customers throughout the world. The company has two research facilities at Wickliffe, Ohio, one of which is principally for lubricant additive research and the other for research in the field of other specialty chemicals. The company also maintains a mechanical testing laboratory at Wickliffe, equipped with a variety of gasoline and diesel engines and other mechanical equipment to evaluate the performance of additives for lubricants and fuels. Lubrizol has similar mechanical testing laboratories in England and Japan and, in addition, makes extensive use of independent contract research firms. Extensive field testing is also conducted through various arrangements with fleet operators and others. Liaison offices in Detroit, Michigan; Hazelwood, England; Hamburg, Germany; Tokyo, Japan; and Paris, France maintain close contact with the principal automotive and equipment manufacturers of the world and keep the company abreast of the performance requirements for Lubrizol products in the face of changing technologies. These liaison activities also serve as contacts for cooperative development and evaluation of products for future applications. Contacts with the automotive and equipment industry are important so the company may have the necessary direction and lead time to develop products for use in engines, transmissions, gear sets, and other areas of equipment that require lubricants of advanced design. PATENTS. The company owns certain United States patents relating to lubricant and fuel additives, lubricants, chemical compositions and processes, and protective coating materials and processes. It also owns similar patents in foreign countries. While such domestic and foreign patents expire from time to time, the company continues to apply for and obtain patent protection on an ongoing basis. Although the company believes that, in the aggregate, its patents constitute an important asset, it does not regard its business as being materially dependent upon any single patent or any group of related patents. The company has filed claims against Exxon Corporation and its affiliates ("Exxon") alleging infringements by Exxon of certain of the company's patents. These suits are pending in the United States and in Canada, France and the United Kingdom, and are at various stages. The international suits allege infringement of patents that correspond to a United States patent admitted as valid by Exxon in a settlement in 1988. In the suit in Canada, a determination of liability has been made by the courts against Exxon and in favor of the company, and the case has been returned to the trial court for an assessment of damages. In another patent infringement suit, instituted by Exxon in the United States, liability and -3- 5 damages determinations have been made (which are currently in the appeal process) against the company and in favor of Exxon. For further information regarding these cases, refer to Note 18 to the Financial Statements included in the company's 1994 Annual Report to its shareholders. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. The company is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect the environment and limit manufacturing wastes and emissions. The company believes that as a general matter its policies, practices and procedures are properly designed to prevent unreasonable risk of environmental damage and the consequent financial liability to the company. Compliance with the environmental laws and regulations requires continuing management effort and expenditures by the company. Capital expenditures for environmental projects are anticipated to be approximately $20 million in 1995, which is comparable to the environmental-related expenditures in 1994. Management believes that the cost of complying with environmental laws and regulations will not have a material affect on the earnings, liquidity or competitive position of the company. The company is engaged in the handling, manufacture, use, transportation and disposal of substances that are classified as hazardous or toxic by one or more regulatory agencies. The company believes that its handling, manufacture, use, transportation and disposal of such substances generally have been in accord with environmental laws and regulations. Among other environmental laws, the company is subject to the federal "Superfund" law, under which the company has been designated as a "potentially responsible party" that may be liable for cleanup costs associated with various waste sites, some of which are on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Superfund priority list. The company's experience, consistent with what it believes to be the experience of others in similar cases, is that Superfund site liability tends to be apportioned among parties based upon contribution of materials to the Superfund site. Accordingly, the company measures its liability and carries out its financial reporting responsibilities with respect to Superfund sites based upon this standard, even though Superfund site liability is technically joint and several in nature. The company views the expense of remedial clean-up as a part of its product cost, and accrues for estimated environmental liabilities with charges to cost of sales. Management considers its environmental accrual to be adequate to provide for its portion of costs for all known environmental matters, including Superfund sites. Based upon consideration of currently available information, management does not believe liabilities for environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the company's financial position, operating results or liquidity. -4- 6 AGRIBUSINESS As discussed in Note 16 to the Financial Statements, on December 1, 1992, the company transferred substantially all of the Agribusiness segment, other than the specialty vegetable oil operations, to Mycogen Corporation and to a joint venture formed with Mycogen. The company's 1994 and 1993 consolidated revenues, costs and expenses include specialty vegetable oil operations, but do not include amounts related to the transferred assets. As also discussed in Note 16 to the Financial Statements, on December 31, 1993, the company exchanged another portion of its investment in the partnership for additional Mycogen common stock and cash. The company's investment in Mycogen, which includes Agrigenetics, Inc. (formerly Agrigenetics, L.P.), is accounted for by the equity method, under which the company recognizes its share of the earnings or losses of such entities. The specialty vegetable oil operation retained by the company sells specialty vegetable oils and operates an oilseed crushing and refining facility. Specialty vegetable oil sales consist primarily of high oleic sunflower oil in either crude or refined forms and safflower oil. Pursuant to contractual arrangements, the company has agreed to purchase planting seed for specialty vegetable oils from Agrigenetics, Inc., which in turn is to supervise production of oilseed for crushing. The company's ability to acquire high oleic oil seed is subject to governmental, agricultural and export policies as well as the weather. The discussion below is presented only for historical purposes except for any references to specialty vegetable oils. The transferred portion of the Agribusiness operations produced and marketed planting seeds for agricultural crops. The principal seed products were hybrid seed corn, hybrid sorghum, soybeans, hybrid sunflowers, alfalfa, and cotton. Revenues from planting seeds contributed approximately 75% of the Agribusiness sales in 1992. Substantially all of the company's planting seed, and oilseed for crushing, was produced by an established network of growers under specified planting conditions on a short-term contract basis. The company furnished parental seed to its growers, primarily from stock developed, multiplied and maintained by the company. Company personnel supervised planting, growing and harvesting. The seed products were marketed through three regional groups representing eight Agrigenetics seed brands and through an international marketing group and three overseas subsidiaries, all of which sold planting seeds. The products were marketed primarily to dealers and distributors, most of whom were farmers with long-term relationships with the company. The company sold its seeds primarily in the major farm production areas in the United States. The company markets specialty vegetable oil through its own sales organization and commissioned agents. Sales to date have been principally to food processors. -5- 7 The United States seed industry is highly competitive and fragmented. Based on revenue figures from industry sources, management believes the transferred Agribusiness operations were the sixth largest seed company in the United States. The market for vegetable oils is very large and very competitive. The company's TRISUN(R) sunflower oil sells for a premium over regular sunflower oil. TRISUN(R) oil is very high in monounsaturates, and therefore more stable and resistant to oxidation than other vegetable oils. Agribusiness revenues from the sale of planting seeds were earned principally during the first half of the calendar year, and losses from these operations were incurred in the last half as a result of continuing operating expenses with low sales. Working capital needs were also seasonal. Expenditures for inventories were made during the last half of the year, while substantial collections on sales were not received until the second and third quarters of the following year. Strategic Agribusiness activities consisted principally of internal biotechnology research and development directed toward developing new products for the agriculture, food and chemical industries. Agribusiness' research and development consisted of traditional plant breeding and strategic research in advanced plant science. Plant breeding attempts to create desirable plants by crossing selected parent plants. The genetic combinations of the crosses are then tested under field conditions to determine if desired characteristics appear. Traditional research expense of the Agribusiness segment was $7.2 million in 1992. A major portion of Agribusiness' strategic research and development was conducted at the research laboratory in Madison, Wisconsin. Strategic research was focused on specialty chemicals and food products derived from oil seed crops and on genetic improvement of specific attributes of hybrid plant varieties. Total Agribusiness strategic research expense was $7.7 million in 1992. The company has two United States patents covering its high oleic sunflower technology; one covers the seeds and plants and the other covers the oil. On February 17, 1995, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit upheld the patent covering the seeds and plants. This patent had previously been rejected by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) under a reexamination initiated in 1988 by a consortium of seed companies. The other patent covering the oil is also in reexamination and is on appeal to the PTO Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences. GENERAL EMPLOYEES. At December 31, 1994, the company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries had 4,520 employees of which approximately 60% were in the U.S. INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS. Financial information with respect to domestic and foreign operations is contained in Note 12 to the Financial Statements that is included in the company's 1994 Annual Report to its shareholders and is incorporated herein by reference. -6- 8 The company supplies its additive customers abroad from overseas manufacturing plants and through export from the United States. Sales and technical service offices are maintained in more than 30 countries outside the United States. As a result, the company is subject to business risks inherent in non-U.S. activities, including political uncertainty, import and export limitations, exchange controls and currency fluctuations. The company believes risks related to its foreign operations are mitigated due to the political and economic stability of the countries in which its largest foreign operations are located. While changes in the dollar value of foreign currencies will affect earnings from time to time, the longer term economic effect of these changes should not be significant given the company's net asset exposure, currency mix and pricing flexibility. Generally, the income statement effect of changes in the dollar value of foreign currencies is partially or wholly offset by the company's ability to make corresponding price changes in local currency. The company's consolidated net income will generally benefit as foreign currencies increase in value compared to the U.S. dollar and will generally decline as foreign currencies decrease in value. In 1994, currency fluctuations did not have a material effect on net earnings. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The general offices of the company are located in Wickliffe, Ohio. The company has various leases for general office space primarily located in Eastlake, Ohio; Houston, Texas; and London, England. The company owns three additive manufacturing plants in the United States; one located in the Cleveland, Ohio area, at Painesville, and two near Houston, Texas, at Deer Park and Bayport. Outside the United States, the company owns additive manufacturing plants in Australia, Brazil, Canada, England, France (three locations), Japan, South Africa and Singapore. All of these plants, other than Singapore, are owned in fee. In Singapore, the company owns the plant but leases the land on which the plant is located. The company owns in fee mechanical testing facilities in Wickliffe, Ohio; Hazelwood, England; and Atsugi, Japan. The company also owns an oilseed crushing and refining plant located in Culbertson, Montana. Finally, the company owns in fee a manufacturing plant in Germany that manufactures performance chemical additives for the coatings industry. Additive manufacturing plants in India, Mexico, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela are owned and operated by joint venture companies licensed by Lubrizol. Lubrizol's ownership of each of these companies ranges from 40% to 49%. The company has entered into long-term contracts for its exclusive use of major marine terminal facilities at the Port of Houston, Texas. In addition, Lubrizol has leases for storage facilities in Australia, Chile, Ecuador, Finland, France, Holland, Singapore, Spain, South Africa, Sweden, and Turkey; East Liverpool, Ohio; Los Angeles, California; St. Paul, Minnesota; Bayonne, New Jersey; and Tacoma, Washington. In some cases, the ownership or leasing of such facilities is through certain of its subsidiaries or affiliates. -7- 9 The company initiated a manufacturing rationalization plan during the third quarter of 1993. The plan will be substantially implemented by the end of 1996 and, through consolidation, is expected to result in a one-third reduction in the number of units used to produce intermediate products. See Note 17 to the Financial Statements included in the company's 1994 Annual Report to its shareholders. Although the company continues to maintain a capital expenditure program to support its operations, management of the company believes that its facilities are adequate for its present operations and for the foreseeable future. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The company is a party in a case brought by Exxon Corporation and its affiliates, Exxon Chemical Patents, Inc. and Exxon Research & Engineering Company, in the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division on September 19, 1989. In December 1992, the trial jury rendered a verdict that the company willfully infringed an Exxon patent pertaining to an oil soluble copper additive component. In early 1993, the court prohibited the company from making or selling any additive packages in the United States that contained this component and awarded Exxon $18.1 million for attorneys' fees. On November 18, 1993, another jury in the same case awarded Exxon $48 million in damages. The findings of infringement and validity of the Exxon patent as well as the $18.1 million attorneys' fee award are on appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, D.C., which has jurisdiction over all patent cases. Oral argument in this appeal was heard on December 6, 1993, and the company does not know when a decision will be announced. On February 18, 1994, acting on a request from Exxon that the damages amount be tripled, the trial court judge doubled the damages amount and awarded prejudgment interest, court costs and additional attorneys' fees to Exxon. The total amount of the judgment, including the previously awarded attorneys' fees, is $129 million. The company has appealed the February 1994 damages award to the same court in Washington, D.C., as is considering the appeal of the original verdict. Oral argument in the damages appeal was heard on March 8, 1995, and the company does not know when a decision will be announced. The company's management continues to believe that it has not infringed the Exxon patent and that the patent is invalid. Based on the advice of legal counsel, management believes that the December 1992 trial court judgment will not be upheld on appeal. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matters were submitted to the vote of the security holders during the three months ended December 31, 1994. -8- 10 EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT The following sets forth the name, age, recent business experience and certain other information relative to each person who is an executive officer of the company as of March 1, 1995.

EX-10.B 2 LUBRIZOL CORP. EXHIBIT (10)(B) 1 Exhibit (10)(b) THE LUBRIZOL CORPORATION AMENDED DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN FOR DIRECTORS ------------------------------------------------ 1. PURPOSE. The purpose of this AMENDED DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN FOR DIRECTORS (the "Plan"), entered this 27th day of June, 1994, is to continue to permit any member of the Board of Directors (the "Participant") of The Lubrizol Corporation (the "Company") to defer all or a portion of the compensation to be received as a director until after the Participant ceases to be a director, all as provided in this Plan. 2. ADMINISTRATION. The Plan shall be administered by the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Committee"). The Committee's interpretation and construction of all provisions of this Plan shall be binding and conclusive. In the event that a Participant is a member of the Committee, such Participant shall not participate in any decision of the Committee relating to that Participant's participation in this Plan. 3. RIGHT TO DEFER COMPENSATION. --------------------------- (a) Any director of the Company may, at any time, elect to defer under this Plan all, or such portion as the director may designate, of (i) that director's annual retainer fee and/or (ii) the attendance fees for attending directors' meetings or committees thereof. The annual retainer fee, for this purpose, shall be deemed to be earned equally and ratably as of the last day of each calendar quarter during the calendar year. Attendance fees are deemed to be earned when the director attends the meeting for which the attendance fee is paid. (b) The election described in paragraph (a) shall be made by written notice delivered to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company specifying (i) the length of time, not less than one year, during which the election shall apply, (ii) the portion of the retainer fee and/or the attendance fee to be deferred for such year or years, and (iii) the periodic payment schedule selected subject to the installment period limitation and the computation of each installment payment to the Participant pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 5. 2 (c) The election under this Section 3 shall take effect on the first day of the calendar quarter following the month in which the election is made. A director may designate that the election shall remain in effect until the director, on a prospective basis, withdraws the election or changes the amount to be deferred; provided that, if the director changes only the amount to be deferred, the periodic payment schedule selected under paragraph (b) (iii) shall continue to apply. (d) Any notice of withdrawal of the election or change in the amount to be deferred shall be effective on the first day of the calendar quarter following the month in which such notice is given to the Company's Chief Financial Officer. 4. DEFERRED COMPENSATION ACCOUNTS ------------------------------ (a) On the last day of each calendar month in which compensation deferred under this Plan would have been payable to a Participant in the absence of an election under this Plan to defer payment thereof, the amount of such deferred compensation shall be credited, pursuant to Participant's election, to one or both of two DEFERRED COMPENSATION ACCOUNTS (the "Participant Accounts"), one of which shall be designated the "CASH DEFERRAL ACCOUNT" and one of which shall be designated the "STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT." Each selected account shall be established and maintained for the Participant in the Company's accounting books and records. (b) Interest shall accrue on the month-end balance in each Participant's CASH DEFERRAL ACCOUNT and shall be computed at the Federal Reserve 90-Day Composite Rate in effect for the previous calendar quarter. Such interest amount so determined shall be credited monthly to such CASH DEFERRAL ACCOUNT. (c) The amount of deferred compensation credited to a Participant's STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT pursuant to paragraph (a) shall be used to determine the number of full and fractional units ("Units") representing Lubrizol Common Shares ("Shares") which the deferred amount would purchase at the closing price for the Shares on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") composite transactions reporting system ("composite tape") on the date that the deferred amount is credited pursuant to paragraph (a) and if Shares were not traded on that date on the NYSE, then such computation shall be made as of the first preceding day on which Shares were so traded. The Company shall credit the Participant's STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT with the number of full and fractional Units so determined. However, at no time prior to delivery of such Shares, shall the Company be obligated to purchase or reserve Shares for such STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT and the Participant shall not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Units credited to such Participant's STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT. 2 3 (d) As of each dividend record date declared with respect to the Shares, the Company shall credit the Participant's STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT with an additional number of whole and/or fractional Units equal to: (i) the product of (x) the dividend per Share which is payable with respect to such dividend record date, multiplied by (y) the number of whole and fractional Units credited to the Participant's STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT as of such record date; DIVIDED BY ---------- (ii) the closing price of a Share on the dividend record date (or if Shares were not traded on that date, on the next preceding day on which Shares were so traded), as reported on the NYSE - composite tape. 5. PAYMENT OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION. -------------------------------- (a) The total amount credited to the Participant Accounts shall be payable to the Participant as provided in this Section 5, either in a lump sum or in periodic installments, over such period, not exceeding ten years, as the Participant shall have selected pursuant to section 3(b)(iii). Such periodic payments shall begin or the lump sum payment shall be made, as the case may be, at such time, not more than twelve (12) months after the Participant ceased to be a director of the Company, as the Participant may have selected pursuant to Section 3 at the time of entering the Plan. The Participant may, under Section 3, have separate and distinct elections as to how the Participant's CASH DEFERRAL ACCOUNT and STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT shall be distributed under this Plan. Payments from the CASH DEFERRAL ACCOUNT shall be in cash and payments from the STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT shall be in Shares. (b) The amount of any installment payable to a Participant shall be determined by dividing the balance of the applicable Participant Accounts by the number of periodic installments (including the current installment) remaining to be paid. If the determination of the installment payable from the Participant's STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT results in a fractional Share being payable, the installment payment shall exclude any such fractional Share payment except that, in the final installment payment, any such fractional Share shall be paid in cash in an amount as determined by the Committee. (c) Until the Participant's Accounts have been completely distributed, the balance in the CASH DEFERRAL ACCOUNT shall continue to bear interest calculated and credited as provided in Section 4(b) and the balance in the STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT shall continue to be credited with the dividend equivalents on such balance as provided in Section 4(d). 3 4 (d) In the event a Participant dies prior to receiving payment of the entire amount of that Participant's Accounts, the unpaid balance in each of such Participant's Accounts shall be paid to such beneficiary as the Participant may have designated in writing to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company as the beneficiary to receive any such post-death distribution under this Plan or, in the absence of such written designation, to the Participant's legal representative or beneficiary designated in the Participant's last will to receive such distributions. Distributions subsequent to the death of a Participant may be made in a lump sum and/or in periodic installments from the Participant's CASH DEFERRAL ACCOUNT or STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT, as the case may be, in such amounts and over such period, not exceeding ten years from the date of death, as the Committee may direct and the amount of each installment shall be computed as provided in paragraph (b) of this Section 5. 6. ACCELERATION OF PAYMENTS. The Committee may accelerate the distribution of either or both of Participant's Accounts for reasons of severe financial hardship. For purposes of this Plan, severe financial hardship shall be deemed to exist in the event the Committee determines that a Participant needs a distribution to meet immediate and heavy financial needs resulting from a sudden or unexpected illness or accident of the Participant or a member of his/her family, loss of the Participant's property due to casualty, or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstance arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant. A distribution based on financial hardship shall not exceed the amount required to meet the immediate financial need created by the hardship. 7. NON-ASSIGNABILITY. None of the rights or interests in either of the Participant's Accounts shall, prior to actual payment or distribution pursuant to this Plan, be assignable or transferable in whole or in part, either voluntarily or by operation of law or otherwise, and such rights and interest shall not be subject to payment of debts by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge, bankruptcy or in any other manner; provided that, upon the occurrence of any such assignment or transfer or attempted assignment or transfer, all payments under paragraph 5 shall be payable in the sole and unrestricted judgment and discretion of the Committee, as to time and amount, and shall be distributable to the person who would have received the payment but for this paragraph 7 only at such time or times and in such amounts as the Committee, from time to time, shall determine. 8. PLAN TO BE UNFUNDED. The Company shall be under no obligation to segregate or reserve Shares or any funds or other assets for purposes relating to this Plan and, except as set forth in this Plan, no Participant shall have any rights whatsoever in or with respect to any Shares or funds or other assets held by the Company for purposes of this Plan or otherwise. Participants' Accounts maintained for purposes of this Plan shall merely constitute bookkeeping entries on records of the Company and shall not constitute any allocation whatsoever of any assets or 4 5 shares of the Company or be deemed to create any trust or special deposit with respect to any of the Company's assets. 9. SHARE CHANGES. In the event of any change in number of outstanding Shares by reason of any stock dividend, stock split up, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, exchange of shares or other similar corporate change, the number of units representing Shares to be credited in accordance with Section 4(c), the number of units representing Shares in the STOCK DEFERRAL ACCOUNT and the Shares to be distributed in accordance with this Plan shall be appropriately adjusted to take into account any such event. 10. AMENDMENT. The Board of Directors of the Company may, from time to time, amend or terminate this Plan, provided that no such amendment or termination of the Plan shall adversely affect a Participant's Accounts as they existed immediately before such amendment or termination or the manner of distribution thereof, unless such Participant shall have consented thereto in writing. 5 EX-10.D 3 LUBRIZOL CORP.

Upon becoming eligible to receive a supplemental pension benefit in accordance with Article II, the Participant may elect to receive the actuarial equivalent of the standard form of benefit provided in paragraph a., above, in accordance with any one of the following options: i. for Participants hired prior to February 1, 1984, a single lump-sum payment; ii. a reduced monthly retirement benefit payable to a Participant for his lifetime following his retirement, with the continuance of a monthly benefit equal to fifty percent (50%) of such reduced amount after his death to his Beneficiary, provided that such Beneficiary is living at the time of such Participant's retirement and survives him; iii. a reduced monthly retirement benefit payable to such Participant for his lifetime following his retirement, with the continuance of a monthly benefit equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such reduced amount after his death to his Beneficiary during the lifetime of the Beneficiary, provided such Beneficiary is living at the time of such Participant's retirement and survives him. Such optional forms of payment described above shall be calculated using the same actuarial factors and interest rates used under The Lubrizol Corporation Pension Plan (or its successor) as in effect on the date the Participant becomes eligible to receive his supplemental pension benefit; provided, however, that (i) for any person who was a Participant as of December 31, 1993, who elects to have his supplemental pension benefit paid in a single lump-sum payment, the interest rate used to discount the portion of the Participant's supplemental pension benefit which represents his accrued benefit as of December 31, 1993, and (ii) for R. W. Scher, W. D. Manning, R. J. Senz, E. V. Luoma and W. J. Herman the interest rate used to discount such Participant's supplemental pension benefit, shall be the arithmetic average of the 7-day compound yield rates for the six full calendar months prior to 4 the month as of which the benefit is payable as published in Donoghue's Tax-Free MONEY FUND AVERAGE which is reported weekly in BARRON'S; provided further that such rate with respect to any month shall be the rate reported in the first issue of BARRON'S published during such month. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of the Plan to the contrary, if the present actuarial value of any retirement benefit or survivor benefit under the Plan to any person, determined as described above, is less than $25,000, such benefit shall be paid in a single lump-sum payment to such person . 3.2 PAYMENT IN THE EVENT OF DEATH PRIOR TO COMMENCEMENT OF DISTRIBUTION. If a Participant dies prior to commencement of benefits under the Plan, his surviving spouse, if any, shall be eligible for a survivor benefit which is equal to one-half of the reduced monthly benefit the Participant would have received under the Plan if the Participant had retired on the day before his death and had elected to receive his benefit under the Lubrizol Pension Plan in a 50 percent joint and survivor annuity form. In making the determinations and reductions required in this Section 3.2, the Company shall apply the assumptions then in use under the Lubrizol Pension Plan. For purposes hereof, a surviving spouse shall only be eligible for a benefit under this Section 3.2, if such spouse had been married to the deceased Participant for at least one year as of the date of the Participant's death. 3.3 SPECIAL FORM OF BENEFIT FOR E. VICTOR LUOMA. Notwithstanding Section 3.1(b)(i), E. Victor Luoma may elect prior to his retirement or other termination of employment to receive payment of his supplemental pension benefit under the Plan in the form of a single sum amount, determined and payable in accordance with Section 3.1.

Any amendment of the Plan shall be in writing and signed by authorized individuals. ARTICLE VI MISCELLANEOUS 6.1 NON-ALIENATION OF RETIREMENT RIGHTS OR BENEFITS.

EXHIBIT (10)(N) 1 Exhibit (10)(n) THE LUBRIZOL CORPORATION DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN FOR OFFICERS --------------------------------------- 1. PURPOSE. The purpose of this Deferred Compensation Plan For Officers (the "Plan") is to permit an officer (as identified by the Company for Section 16 purposes under the Securities Act of 1934) (sometimes hereinafter referred to as "officer" or as the "Participant") of The Lubrizol Corporation (the "Company"), who wishes, to defer a portion of such officer's compensation until retirement or other termination of employment all as provided in the Plan. 2. ADMINISTRATION. The Plan shall be administered by the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Committee"). The Committee's interpretation and construction of all provisions of the Plan shall be binding and conclusive upon all Participants and their heirs and/or successors. 3. RIGHT TO DEFER COMPENSATION. --------------------------- (a) An officer of the Company may, at any time prior to January 1 of a given calendar year, elect, for one or more future successive calendar years, to defer under the Plan a pre-selected amount of such officer's total annual compensation, including bonus, which such officer may thereafter be entitled to receive for services performed during such elected calendar year or years. (b) The election under this Section 3 shall take effect on the first day of the calendar year following the date on which the election is made and such election shall be irrevocable for any elected calendar year after such elected calendar year shall have commenced. (c) The pre-selected amount that an officer may elect to defer shall be one or more of the following: (i) a fixed dollar amount or percentage of the officer's bi-weekly base salary; (ii) a fixed dollar amount or percentage of the officer's quarterly pay; (iii) a fixed dollar amount or percentage of the officer's share in the variable compensation component, if any; 1 2 (iv) a fixed dollar amount or percentage of the officer's participation in the variable award plan, if any. (d) In addition to the provisions of paragraph (c), an officer may elect to defer that portion or all of the officer's participation, if any, in (i) the variable compensation component and/or (ii) the variable award plan for services rendered during the elected calendar year, to the extent that such amounts would otherwise be non-deductible by the Company pursuant to section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The amount of the election under this paragraph (d) shall be determined after taking into account the officer's election, if any, under paragraph (c). (e) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b), where an officer first becomes eligible to participate in the Plan, the newly eligible officer may make the election under this Section 3 to defer the specified compensation for services to be performed subsequent to the election and for the remainder of the calendar year in which the election under this Section 3 is made provided such election is made within 30 days after the date the officer first becomes eligible. (f) All elections under this Plan shall be made by written notice delivered to the Vice President, Human Resources, of the Company specifying (i) the number of calendar years, one or more, during which the election shall apply, (ii) the portion, if any, determined under paragraph (c), of each category of the Participant's compensation to be deferred for such year or years, as described above, and (iii) the periodic payment schedule selected subject to (x) the installment period limitation and (y) the computation of each installment payment, as provided in Section 5. (g) A Participant may designate that the election under this Section 3 shall remain in effect until the Participant, on a prospective basis, withdraws the election or changes the amount to be deferred; PROVIDED THAT, if the Participant changes only the amount to be deferred, the periodic payment schedule selected under paragraph (f)(iii) shall continue to apply. Any notice of the withdrawal of the election shall be effective on the first day of the calendar year following the date on which such notice is given to the Company's Vice President, Human Resources; PROVIDED THAT, such notice shall not change, alter or terminate the deferral of the officer's participation in the variable award plan for the year in which such notice of withdrawal is given which, except for the deferral, would be payable in the calendar year following the date on which such notice of withdrawal is given. Notwithstanding paragraph (f) and the first sentence of this paragraph (g), any compensation earned after the end of the first month in which a Participant under this Plan no longer is an officer of the Company, as defined in Section 1, but continues to be employed by the Company, shall not be deferred, PROVIDED HOWEVER, the balance in the 2 3 Participant's Accounts shall continue to be held and administered pursuant to the Plan. 4. DEFERRED COMPENSATION ACCOUNTS. ------------------------------ (a) On the last day of each month during which the compensation deferred under the Plan would have become payable to the Participant in the absence of an election under the Plan to defer payment thereof, the amount of such deferred compensation, reduced by the amount of any applicable federal, state and/or local payroll taxes, shall be credited to a DEFERRED COMPENSATION ACCOUNT (the "Participant's Account') which shall be established and maintained for each Participant in the Company's accounting books and records. (b) Interest shall accrue on the month-end balance in each Participant's Account as of the last day of each month and shall be computed at the Federal Reserve 90-day Composite Rate in effect for the previous calendar quarter. Such interest amount so determined shall be credited monthly to such Participant's Account. 5. PAYMENT OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION. -------------------------------- (a) The total amount standing as a credit in a Participant's Account shall, upon termination of employment, be payable to the Participant either in a lump sum or in periodic installments over such period, not exceeding ten years, as the Participant shall have selected pursuant to Section 3(f)(iii). Such periodic payments shall begin or the lump sum payment shall be made, as the case may be, from the Participant's Accounts, at such time, not more than twelve (12) months after the Participant ceases to be an employee of the Company, as the Participant shall have selected pursuant to Section 3 (f)(iii) at the time of entering the Plan. (b) The amount of each installment payable to a Participant shall be determined by dividing the balance of such Participant's Account by the number of periodic installments (including the current installment) remaining to be paid. Until a Participant's Account has been completely distributed, the balance thereof remaining, from time to time, shall bear interest on a monthly basis calculated as provided in Section 4(b). (c) In the event a Participant dies prior to receiving payment of the entire amount in that Participant's Account, the unpaid balance shall be paid to such beneficiary as the Participant may have designated in writing to the Vice President, Human Resources, of the Company as the beneficiary to receive any such post-death distribution under the Plan or, in the absence of such written designation, to the Participant's legal representative or to the beneficiary designated in the Participant's last will as the one to receive such distributions. 3 4 Distributions subsequent to the death of a Participant may be made either in a lump sum or in periodic installments in such amounts and over such period, not exceeding ten years from the date of death, as the Committee may direct and the amount of each installment shall be computed as provided in Section 5(b). 6. ACCELERATION OF PAYMENTS. The Committee may accelerate the distribution of part or all of a Participant's Account for reasons of severe financial hardship. For purposes of the Plan, severe financial hardship shall be deemed to exist in the event the Committee determines that a Participant needs a distribution to meet immediate and heavy financial needs resulting from a sudden or unexpected illness or accident of the Participant or a member of the Participant's family, loss of the Participant's property due to casualty, or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstance arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant. A distribution based on financial hardship shall not exceed the amount required to meet the immediate financial need created by the hardship. 7. NON-ASSIGNABILITY. None of the rights or interests in a Participant's Account shall, at any time prior to actual payment or distribution pursuant to the Plan, be assignable or transferable in whole or in part, either voluntarily or by operation of law or otherwise, and such rights and interest shall not be subject to payment of debts by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge, bankruptcy or in any other manner; provided that, upon the occurrence of any such assignment or transfer or the attempted assignment or transfer, all payments under Section 5 shall be payable in the sole and unrestricted judgment and discretion of the Committee, as to time and amount (including a lump sum amount), and shall be distributable to the person who would have received the payment but for this Section 7 only at such time or times and in such amounts as the Committee, from time to time, and in its sole and unrestricted judgment and discretion, shall determine. Should an event covered by this Section 7 occur prior to the death of a Participant, the balance, if any, in the Participant's Account shall, after such death, be thereafter distributed as provided in Section 5(c) subject to the provisions of this Section 7. 8. PLAN TO BE UNFUNDED. The Company shall be under no obligation to segregate or reserve any funds or other assets for purposes relating to the Plan and, except as set forth in this Plan, no Participant shall have any rights whatsoever in or with respect to any funds or other assets held by the Company for purposes of the Plan or otherwise. Each Participant's Account maintained for purposes of the Plan merely constitutes a bookkeeping entry on records of the Company, constitutes the unsecured promise and obligation of the Company to make payments as provided herein, and shall not constitute any allocation whatsoever of any cash or other assets of the Company or be deemed to create any trust or special deposit with respect to any of the Company's assets. 4 5 9. AMENDMENT. The Board of Directors of the Company may, from time to time, amend or terminate the Plan, provided that no such amendment or termination of the Plan shall adversely affect the a Participant's Account as it existed immediately before such amendment or termination or the manner of distribution thereof, unless such Participant shall have consented thereto in writing. Any reduction in the quarterly interest rate set forth in Section 4(b), by amendment to the Plan, shall affect only contributions made to the Plan for calendar years subsequent to the adoption of the amendment. The balance in a Participant's Account prior to the effective date of any such interest rate reduction shall continue to bear interest at the rate in effect prior to any such reduction in interest rate. Notice of any amendment or termination of the Plan shall be given promptly to all Participants. 10. PLAN IMPLEMENTATION.

If benefits do not begin in the month following the Participant's birthday, the reduction shown above shall be adjusted for the number of months elapsed since his last birthday for the purposes of this Section 4. Section 5. STANDARD FORM OF BENEFIT. Effective January 1, 1994, the Participant shall be paid his normal retirement benefit or early retirement benefit, whichever, is applicable, upon his retirement in the form of a monthly retirement benefit payable to such Participant for his lifetime following his retirement, with the continuance to his Beneficiary of such amount after his death for the remainder, if any, of the 120-month term commencing with the date as of which the first payment of such monthly benefit is made, and with any such monthly benefits remaining unpaid upon the death of the survivor of the Participant and his Beneficiary to be made to the estate of such survivor.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of the Plan to the contrary, if the present actuarial value of any retirement benefit or survivor benefit under the Plan to any person, determined as described above, is less than $25,000, such benefit shall be paid in a single lump-sum payment to such person. Section 7. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. If a Participant terminates employment after five (5) or more years of service as a Participant in the Plan, but prior to becoming eligible for an early retirement benefit under Section 4, he shall receive a single lump-sum benefit which shall be the actuarial equivalent of his benefit determined under Section 2 as of the date of his termination of employment; provided, however, that the five (5) year service requirement described above shall not apply to the Participants listed in Appendix A.

Subject to the provisions of the trust agreement governing any such trust fund or the insurance contract, the obligation of The Lubrizol Corporation under the Plan to provide a Participant or a Beneficiary with a benefit shall nonetheless constitute the unsecured promise of The Lubrizol Corporation to make payments as provided herein, and no person shall have any interest in, or a lien or prior claim upon, any property of The Lubrizol Corporation.

Any amendment of the Plan shall be in writing and signed by authorized individuals. Section 17. TERMINATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF ACCRUED BENEFITS. The Plan may be terminated at any time by the Corporation, and in that event the amount of the accrued benefits as of the date of such termination shall remain an obligation of the Corporation and shall be payable as if the Plan had not been terminated.

Where necessary or appropriate to the meaning hereof, the singular shall be deemed to include the plural, the plural to include the singular, the masculine to include the feminine, and the feminine to include the masculine.

EX-13 10 LUBRIZOL CORP. EXHIBIT 13 1 Exhibit 13 THE LUBRIZOL CORPORATION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Lubrizol Corporation is a full service supplier of performance chemicals to diverse markets worldwide. These specialty chemical products are created through the application of advanced chemical, mechanical and biological technologies to enhance the performance, quality and value of the products in which they are used. The company develops, produces and sells specialty additive systems for gasoline and diesel engine lubricating oils, for automatic transmission fluids and for gear oils, and marine and tractor lubricants. The company also supplies specialty products for industrial lubricants and functional fluids, fuel additives and diversified specialty chemical products. Prior to December 1, 1992, the company had a separately reportable Agribusiness segment. That segment developed, produced and marketed planting seeds and specialty vegetable oils, and also conducted strategic biotechnology research and development. As described in Note 16 to the financial statements, the company transferred substantially all of its Agribusiness segment, other than the specialty vegetable oil operations, to Mycogen Corporation and to a joint venture formed with Mycogen. The transferred assets are referred to in the following discussion as "Agrigenetics." The agribusiness assets and operations retained by the company are not reportable as a separate industry segment after 1992. In 1993, the company began initiatives to eliminate its separate business unit structure and realign activities into one combined organization, consolidate intermediate production activities, improve the timeliness of product development, simplify its product offerings and continued the restructuring of its agribusiness investments. As discussed in Note 17 to the financial statements, the company recorded a special pretax charge of $86.3 million in the third quarter of 1993 primarily for the manufacturing rationalization and organizational realignment initiatives. When substantially complete in 1996, the number of intermediate production units will have been reduced by one-third, and the number of employees will have been reduced by approximately 5%. Through December 31, 1994, the company has completed approximately one-half of the production unit reductions and two-thirds of the employee reductions. Approximately $22 million has been expended since the third quarter of 1993 implementing the initiatives, primarily for employee reductions. Future cash expenditures of $24 million are estimated to be necessary to complete implementation of the initiatives. These initiatives reduced the rate of increase in 1994 costs, as compared to historical trends, which resulted in estimated savings in 1994 of $20 to $25 million. These savings resulted from fewer employees, lower operating costs and reductions in the number of manufacturing units. When fully implemented, annual savings are expected to approximate $50 million of which $40 million will represent cash savings. 1994 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS IN 1994, the company achieved record revenues and results of operations. As discussed below, the primary factors contributing to 1994 results were higher average selling prices, lower research, testing and development expenses and better results from agribusiness investments.
1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Revenues by Segment(millions) Specialty Chemicals $1,335.5 $1,348.8 $1,433.4 $1,525.5 $1,599.0 Agribusiness $117.2 $127.5 $118.9
In 1994, consolidated revenues were $1.6 billion, an increase of $73.5 million or 5% from 1993. This increase was comprised of 4% higher average selling prices, including currency, and 1% volume increases. Average selling prices increased primarily as a result of price increases and new product introductions. The company implemented price increases in the first quarter of 1994 to more fully recover the costs of product technology and the costs resulting from increased requirements of environmental, health and safety regulations at the company's facilities. Higher performing products, which carry higher selling prices, were introduced late in 1993 to meet new passenger car motor oil standards in the U.S. markets.
1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Gross Profit by Segment(millions) Specialty Chemicals $398.2 $429.9 $451.0 $485.4 $520.7 Agribusiness $40.2 $45.7 $39.3
Gross profit (sales less cost of sales) increased 7% to $520.7 million in 1994 from $485.4 million in 1993. The improvement in gross profit was primarily attributable to the positive effects of implementing selling price increases, new product introductions and growth from business development activities. These improvements were partially offset by higher material costs in the second half of the year and higher manufacturing costs. Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 32.7% in 1994 from 32.0% in 1993. Raw material prices increased during the last half of 1994, and at year-end were approximately 7% higher than the prior year. Additionally, plant operating costs to comply with changing environmental, health and safety regulations have continued to increase. The company was able to manage the near-term impact of the higher raw material costs through operating expense control. However, these higher material costs will impact future earnings if not recovered through higher prices; therefore, the company is implementing worldwide price increases of 5% to 7% in the first quarter of 1995. Selling and administrative expenses increased less than 1% to $159.5 million in 1994. This increase is significantly lower than the company's previous historical cost trend because of lower legal 20 2 expenses and a decline in the number of employees as a result of early retirements related to the company's realignment initiative.
1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Research Testing and Development by Segment (millions) Specialty Chemicals $107.4 $127.7 $139.8 $171.5 $165.5 Agribusiness $16.6 $16.3 $15.0
Research, testing and development expenses (technology expenses) decreased $6.1 million or 4% to $165.5 million in 1994. This decrease is primarily attributable to completion in early 1994 of testing required for passenger car motor oil specification upgrades, the decline in the number of employees resulting from realignment and increased efficiencies in the product development process. Primarily as a result of the above factors, consolidated revenues increased $38.8 million more than the increase in total costs and expenses in 1994. The company continued its program of selling its investment in Genentech common stock. During 1994 and 1993, respectively, the company sold 869,100 and 1,001,776 shares of Genentech common stock resulting in pretax gains of $41.2 million and $42.4 million. The net proceeds of these sales were used to repurchase common shares of the company. Other income-net increased $6.8 million primarily due to improved equity earnings from the company's investment in Mycogen, including its agribusiness joint venture, net of a gain on the sale of an agribusiness investment in 1993. The company conducts a significant amount of its business and has a number of operating facilities in countries outside the United States. As a result, the company is subject to business risks inherent in non-U.S. activities, including political uncertainty, import and export limitations, exchange controls and currency fluctuations. The company believes risks related to its foreign operations are mitigated due to the political and economic stability of the countries in which its largest foreign operations are located. While changes in the dollar value of foreign currencies will affect earnings from time to time, the longer term economic effect of these changes should not be significant given the company's net asset exposure, currency mix and pricing flexibility. Generally, the income statement effect of changes in the dollar value of foreign currencies is partially or wholly offset by the company's ability to make corresponding price changes in local currency. The company's consolidated net income will generally benefit as foreign currencies increase in value compared to the U.S. dollar and will generally decline as foreign currencies decrease in value. In 1994, there was not a significant net earnings effect due to foreign currency fluctuations. As a result of the above factors and a decrease in interest expense, consolidated income before taxes increased $131.8 million from 1993. Excluding the gain on the sales of Genentech stock and the 1993 special charge, income before taxes increased $46.7 million or 29% from 1993. The company made donations of Genentech common stock during 1994 (see Note 7 to the financial statements) which reduced the company's 1994 effective tax rate by 2%. This benefit is nonrecurring. The company anticipates its 1995 effective tax rate will approximate 33%. Excluding gains on the sales of Genentech common stock and the 1993 special charge and accounting changes (discussed below), net income was $148.8 million in 1994 compared to $113.5 million in 1993, and the related earnings per share amounts improved by 35% to $2.26 in 1994 from $1.67 in 1993. RETURN ON AVERAGE SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY RETURN ON AVERAGE SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY was 22% in 1994, 6% in 1993 and 15% in 1992. Excluding Genentech gains and the 1993 accounting changes and special charge, return on average shareholders' equity was 19% in 1994 and 14% in 1993.
1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Return on Equity(percent) 27% 16% 15% 6% 22%
1993 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS IN 1993, consolidated revenues increased $61.9 million or 4% from 1992 after excluding $88.6 million of Agrigenetics revenue in 1992. Selling prices increased 4% as a result of price increases implemented in the fourth quarter of 1992 and the introduction late in 1993 of higher performing products to meet new passenger car motor oil standards in the U.S. market. Favorable product mix (including sales by Langer & Company acquired early in 1993) of 3% was offset by unfavorable currency effects of 2% and volume decreases of 1%. North American volume decreased 9% in 1993 from the record levels of volume in 1992 as a result of a decrease in market share. The revenue impact of this volume decrease was offset by an increase in sales of more profitable products. International volume increased 6% over 1992 and accounts for approximately 60% of revenues. Gross profit increased $30.4 million or 7% from $455.0 million in 1992 (excluding $35.3 million of Agrigenetics gross profit in 1992) primarily as a result of the higher average selling prices. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 32.0% in 1993 compared to 31.2% (excluding Agrigenetics) in 1992. Excluding Agrigenetics expenses of $29.1 million in 1992, selling and administrative expenses increased $6.3 million or 4% in 1993 primarily because of the acquisition of Langer. Technology expenses increased $30.3 million or 21% in 1993 after excluding Agrigenetics expenses of $13.5 million from 1992. This increase was a result of higher testing costs associated with customer test programs to meet new industry performance standards for passenger car and diesel engine oils and automatic transmission fluids. These standards change periodically as engine and transmission designs are improved by the equipment manufacturers to meet new 21 3 emissions, efficiency, durability and other performance factors. The frequency of these performance upgrades compressed the time cycles for new product development and resulted in an increase in the company's technology expenses. As a result of the above factors and increased royalties, after excluding Agrigenetics from 1992, total cost and expenses increased $5.9 million more than revenues increased in 1993. During 1993, the company recorded a special pretax charge of $86.3 million and pretax gains of $42.4 million on the sale of Genentech common stock as discussed above. Other income-net was $.5 million in 1993 compared to $11.9 million in 1992. Other income includes the company's share of equity losses in Mycogen and the agribusiness joint venture. Mycogen recorded restructuring charges and incurred weather-related problems in the Midwest which adversely affected agribusiness results. The reduction in other income was attributable to increased equity losses of $18.3 million in Mycogen and the agribusiness joint venture, partially offset by increased gains on the sale of investments, excluding Genentech, of $6.7 million. The equity losses related to Mycogen and the agribusiness joint venture, net of preferred stock dividends and a gain on the sale of investment, were $4.1 million less in 1993 than the Agrigenetics operating loss and equity losses recorded in 1992. Interest income decreased $3.2 million due to lower average balances of cash and short-term investments. An increase in borrowings resulted in slightly higher interest expense in 1993. As discussed previously, the company conducts a significant amount of its business outside of the United States and is therefore subject to risks including currency fluctuations. In 1993, European currencies weakened and the Japanese yen strengthened resulting in an insignificant net earnings effect. As a result of the above factors, income before income taxes decreased $57.5 million in 1993 compared to 1992. Net income in 1993, excluding the special charge, Genentech gain and the accounting changes discussed below, decreased 9% to $113.5 million or $1.67 per share, from $124.6 million or $1.81 per share in 1992. As described in Note 10 to the financial statements, effective January 1, 1993, the company adopted SFAS 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." The company recorded the cumulative effect of this accounting change of $79.9 million before taxes ($51.5 million or $.76 per common share after taxes) in the first quarter of 1993. As a result of this accounting change, postretirement health care and life insurance costs increased $8.1 million ($.08 per share after taxes) in 1993. This expense is allocated among the various cost and expense categories in the consolidated statements of income. SFAS 106 has no effect on cash flows since the company continues to pay claims as incurred. As described in Note 8 to the financial statements, effective January 1, 1993, the company also adopted SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." The cumulative effect of this accounting change reduced net deferred tax liabilities and increased net income in 1993 by $12.1 million or $.18 per share. The positive effect of adopting SFAS 109 was primarily attributable to more favorable treatment of the deferred income taxes on intercompany profit in inventory. SFAS 109 has no effect on cash flows. 1992 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Following is a discussion of the results of operations for 1992. The discussion is presented first on a summary consolidated basis and then on a historical business segment basis. IN 1992, consolidated revenues increased $75.9 million or 5% compared to 1991 primarily as a result of record volume in the Specialty Chemicals segment. The increased revenues were partially offset by increased manufacturing costs in Specialty Chemicals, and higher specialty vegetable oil production costs, with the result that gross profit increased $14.7 million or 3%. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 31.7% in 1992, compared to 32.4% in 1991. Selling, administrative and technology expenses increased $19.7 million or 6% (all in the Specialty Chemicals segment), more than offsetting the higher gross profit. As a result of these factors and reduced royalties, total cost and expenses increased $5.8 million more than revenues. Other income-net increased $2.4 million in 1992, primarily as a result of a gain on sales of investments of $6.5 million, partially offset by the company's share of losses related to the agribusiness joint venture formed in December 1992, and expenses related to closing facilities in the mining chemicals market. Accordingly, combined segment income was $3.4 million lower in 1992 than in 1991. As explained in the segment discussions, this consisted of a $6.0 million increase in Specialty Chemicals and a $9.4 million decrease in Agribusiness. Net interest income increased $2.4 million primarily as a result of the repayment of debt early in the year. As a result of the above factors, income before income taxes was $1.0 million or 1% lower than 1991. However, due principally to increased tax benefits from foreign dividends, net income in 1992 increased $1.0 million or 1% over 1991. SPECIALTY CHEMICALS SEGMENT: In 1992, the Specialty Chemicals segment accounted for 92% of consolidated revenues. The segment's revenues increased $84.6 million or 6% in 1992 as a volume increase of 8% and favorable currency effects of 2% were partially offset by unfavorable product and geographic mix of 4%. Volume was at a record level for the year. North American volume was up 21% for the year as a result of market share gains and a comparatively weak first half of 1991. International volume was flat for the year. Average selling prices declined slightly during the first three quarters. In the fourth quarter, the company announced price increases which increased revenues for part of the period. Gross profit increased $21.1 million or 5% compared to 1991. The increase in gross profit resulting from higher revenues was partially offset by higher manufacturing costs that primarily reflected the effects of higher volume, increased pension and health care costs and environmental costs. As a percentage of sales, gross profit decreased in 1992 to 31.6% from 32.1% in 1991. Selling and administrative expenses increased $7.7 million or 6% primarily due to higher international selling expenses and higher pension and health care costs. Technology expenses increased $12.1 million or 10% as a result of increased operating and staffing levels necessary to meet customer and product development needs relating to new performance standards for gasoline engine oil effective in July 1993, and diesel engine oils in 1994. 22 4 In 1992, the U.S. dollar weakened against other currencies, resulting in a net favorable effect on the company when international transactions were translated into U.S. dollars. The increase in gross profit was greater than the increase in expenses, and when combined with a $5.6 million increase in other income-net, Specialty Chemicals segment income was $6 million or 3% higher than in 1991. AGRIBUSINESS SEGMENT: In 1992, Agribusiness revenues decreased $8.6 million or 7% as a result of lower specialty vegetable oil volume due to more competition in international markets and a fire at a customer's plant in Asia. Gross profit decreased $6.4 million or 14% as a result of the lower sales, costs associated with inventory market adjustments and higher storage costs, all of which related to specialty vegetable oil operations. Gross profit as a percent of sales decreased in 1992 to 33.1% compared to 35.9% in 1991. Selling, administrative and research expenses were approximately the same as 1991. Lower specialty vegetable oil selling expenses and lower research expenses offset costs associated with the company's partnership with Mycogen. Agribusiness segment loss increased $9.4 million due to the lower gross profit and the company's share of losses in Mycogen and the agribusiness joint venture. WORKING CAPITAL, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The company's cash flows for the years 1992 through 1994 are presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Cash provided from operating activities during 1994 was $156.8 million, a decrease of $5.7 million compared to 1993. Cash received from customers increased $69.0 million or 5% due to higher revenues. However, this increase was more than offset by amounts paid to suppliers and employees, including payments of $18 million for costs which had been accrued in the 1993 special charge, and higher income tax payments.
1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Cash Provided from Operating Activities (millions) $114.3 $192.1 $135.2 $162.5 $156.8
Net cash outflows from investing activities were $117.2 million in 1994 compared to $106.8 million in 1993. Capital expenditures increased $32.7 million or 26% in 1994, of which one-half was attributable to increases at manufacturing facilities, and the balance was primarily due to improvements and additions at the company's Wickliffe facilities. During 1993, the company expended $40.3 million to acquire Langer and certain commercial and technology assets of Great Lakes Chemical, S.A. Cash proceeds from the sale of Genentech common stock were $43.6 million in 1994 compared to $44.5 million in 1993. In 1993, investment proceeds also included amounts aggregating $17.0 million from the sale and redemption of portions of the company's agribusiness investments. Throughout 1994, the company continued its share repurchase program. In 1994 and 1993, the net proceeds from the sale of Genentech common stock as well as cash generated from operations were used to repurchase common shares of the company. The company repurchased 2,007,721, or 3%, of its common shares for $68.3 million during 1994 compared to the repurchase of 2,075,645 common shares for $67.1 million in 1993. At December 31, 1994, there was Board authorization remaining for the repurchase of 1,031,234 million common shares. As a result of the activities discussed above and the increase in debt discussed below, cash and short-term investments at December 31, 1994, increased by $12.2 million compared to December 31, 1993. As described in Note 3 to the financial statements, effective January 1, 1994, the company adopted SFAS 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." SFAS 115 requires that certain of the company's marketable equity securities, included in investments in consolidated companies, be reported at fair value rather than historical cost. The effect at December 31, 1994, of adopting SFAS 115 was to increase investments in nonconsolidated companies by $35.6 million, increase shareholders' equity by $23.2 million and increase deferred tax liabilities by $12.4 million. SFAS 115 had no effect on 1994 net income or cash flows. The company held 830,900 shares of Genentech common stock as of December 31, 1994. The company has continued to sell Genentech stock during the first quarter of 1995 and expects to sell its remaining shares throughout 1995.
1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Capitalization(millions) Equity $736.2 $794.5 $819.4 $732.2 $832.0 Long-term Debt $54.0 $35.0 $23.3 $55.3 $114.2
The company's financial position continues to be strong. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.5:1 at both December 31, 1994 and 1993. The level of capital spending and the continuation of the company's share repurchase program were principal factors in the company incurring net borrowings of $92.7 million in 1994. Total debt as a percent of capitalization (shareholders' equity plus short-term and long-term debt) increased to 17% at the end of 1994 compared to 9% at the end of 1993. The company anticipates that, during 1995, its capital expenditures, primarily for manufacturing, technical and administrative support, and its share repurchase program will continue at approximately the same levels as 1994. Total debt is therefore expected to continue at or above the December 31, 1994 levels throughout 1995. The company's strategy of using additional debt to finance capital requirements reflects management's continuing efforts to enhance shareholder value. At December 31, 1994, the company had unused revolving credit agreements and other credit lines aggregating $95 million. Under a currently effective shelf registration statement, the company has the ability to offer to the public up to $100 million of debt securities. As described in Note 4 to the financial statements, the company has 23 5 the ability to refinance on a long-term basis $56.6 million of outstanding commercial paper under its revolving credit agreements. Management believes the company's internally generated funds as well as its credit facilities and shelf registration will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements. Implementation of the remaining special charge activities is estimated to involve future cash outlays aggregating $24 million, primarily in 1995 and 1996. Offsetting the cash outlays will be cash savings which are expected to grow to approximately $40 million annually after the plans are fully implemented. The impact of the special charge on the balance sheet at December 31, 1994, after recognition of deferred taxes, was to reduce working capital by $6.9 million, reduce noncurrent assets by $5.9 million and increase noncurrent liabilities by $13.5 million. The company is involved in patent litigation with Exxon Corporation in various countries. Determinations of liability against the company in the U.S., which is being heard on appeal, and against Exxon in Canada have been made by the courts. Management is unable to predict the eventual outcomes of this litigation and, therefore, their impact on future cash flows is not known. If Exxon prevails in the U.S. case, management believes the company has sufficient financial resources to meet any resulting obligation and, other than a potential one-time charge against income, the litigation would not have a material adverse effect on future results of operations. Refer to Note 18 for further information regarding this litigation.

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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Lubrizol Corporation and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As discussed in Notes 8 and 10 to the financial statements, in 1993 the Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes to conform with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109 and its method of accounting for postretirement benefits to conform with SFAS No. 106. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Cleveland, Ohio February 14, 1995 24 6 CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF INCOME

28 10 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (In Thousands of Dollars Unless Otherwise Indicated) NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The Lubrizol Corporation and its majority-owned subsidiaries. For nonconsolidated companies (affiliates), the equity method of accounting is used when ownership exceeds 20% or when the company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the policies of the investee. Other affiliates are carried at cost or fair market value (see Note 3). Refer to Note 16 regarding changes in Agribusiness. ACCOUNTING CHANGES - Effective January 1, 1993, the company changed its method of accounting for postretirement benefits to conform with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 106 (see Note 10) and its method of accounting for income taxes to conform with SFAS 109 (see Note 8). The cumulative effect at adoption of these changes in accounting principles, net of tax, is separately reported on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Effective January 1, 1994, the company changed its method of accounting for certain investments in marketable securities to conform to SFAS 115 (see Note 3). CASH EQUIVALENTS - The company generally invests its excess cash in short-term investments with various banks and financial institutions. Short-term investments are cash equivalents as they are part of the cash management activities of the company and are comprised primarily of investments having maturities when purchased of less than three months. INVENTORIES - Inventories are stated at cost which is not in excess of market. Cost of inventories is determined by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method in the United States and the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method elsewhere. The average cost method is used for specialty vegetable oil. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION - Accelerated depreciation methods are used in computing depreciation on certain machinery and equipment which comprise approximately 60% of the depreciable assets. The remaining assets are depreciated using the straight-line method. Effective January 1, 1993, the company changed to the straight-line method for newly acquired machinery and equipment. Management believes that straight-line depreciation provides for a better matching of costs and revenues over the lives of the newly acquired assets and conforms to predominant industry practices. The new depreciation method did not have a material effect on net income reported in the periods. The estimated useful lives are 10 to 40 years for buildings and land improvements and range from 3 to 20 years for machinery and equipment. Amortization of intangible and other assets is on a straight-line method over periods ranging from 5 to 25 years. For income tax purposes, different methods and rates are used in certain instances. RESEARCH, TESTING AND DEVELOPMENT - Research, testing and development costs are expensed when incurred. Research and development expenses, excluding testing, were $90.7 million, $88.5 million and $91.2 million in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - The assets and liabilities of most non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Operating results are translated at weighted average exchange rates in effect during the period. Net unrealized translation adjustments are recorded as a component of other shareholders' equity and totaled $(9,722), $(31,863) and $(20,818) at December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. PER SHARE AMOUNTS - Net income per share has been computed by dividing net income by the average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income per share has not been adjusted for the effect of stock options as the dilution effect would be less than 3% in any year. All share and per share data have been restated to reflect the 2-for-1 stock split effective August 31, 1992. NOTE 2 - INVENTORIES
1994 1993 -------- -------- Finished products $102,605 $ 89,817 Products in process 98,105 92,067 Raw materials and supplies 97,621 102,653 -------- -------- $298,331 $284,537 ======== ========
Inventories on the LIFO method were 27% and 25% of consolidated inventories at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The current replacement cost of these inventories exceeded the LIFO cost at December 31, 1994 and 1993 by $49.9 and $43.0 million, respectively. NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS IN NONCONSOLIDATED COMPANIES
1994 1993 --------- --------- Investments carried at equity $ 60,523 $ 59,909 Investments carried at cost 37,890 43,337 Investments classified as available- for-sale 39,600 --------- --------- $ 138,013 $ 103,246 ========= =========
The company adopted SFAS 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" as of January 1, 1994. SFAS 115 requires that certain investments in marketable debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale be reported at fair value, rather than historical cost, with the unrealized gain or loss recorded in shareholders' equity. The effect of adopting SFAS 115 at January 1, 1994 was to increase investments in nonconsolidated companies by $99.2 million, increase shareholders' equity by $64.5 million and increase deferred tax liabilities by $34.7 million. At December 31, 1994, investments classified as available-for-sale had an average cost basis of $4.0 million and an aggregate fair value of $39.6 million resulting in unrealized gains of $36.2 million or $23.5 million after tax and unrealized losses of $.6 million or $.4 million after tax. The company also holds other investments in nonconsolidated companies, including certain investments in marketable securities that are either accounted for on the equity basis or the cost basis due to restrictions placed on the securities. These marketable investments have quoted market values which exceed the book carrying values by $17.7 million at December 31, 1994. 29 11 NOTE 4 - SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM DEBT
1994 1993 -------- ------- Long-term debt consists of: Debt supported by long-term banking arrangements: Commercial paper at weighted average rate of 5.97% $ 56,625 6.5% Marine terminal refunding revenue bonds, due 2000 18,375 $18,375 7.875% Industrial development revenue bonds, due 2000 1,000 1,000 Term loans: Yen denominated, at 3.8% to 5.8%, due 1995-2002 24,898 24,210 Deutsche mark denominated, at 6.78%, due 1996 15,484 13,825 Other (5% in 1994, 5.9% in 1993) 325 184 -------- ------- 116,707 57,594 Less current portion (2,546) (2,296) -------- ------- $114,161 $55,298 ======== ======= Short-term debt consists of: Commercial paper at weighted average rates of 5.97% and 3.3% $ 46,375 $ 4,400 Other short-term debt at weighted average rates of 5.2% and 6.1% 4,779 7,894 Current portion of long-term debt 2,546 2,296 --------- -------- $ 53,700 $ 14,590 ========= ========
Commercial paper debt is due within one year. The company has available $95 million in credit facilities, including $75 million in committed revolving credit agreements which would permit the company to borrow at or below the U.S. prime rate. These facilities, which were unused at December 31, 1994, would permit the company to refinance for a period beyond one year the Marine Terminal Refunding Revenue Bonds, whose bondholders have the right to put the bonds back to the company, and $56.6 million of commercial paper outstanding. Accordingly, the company has classified these balances as long-term debt. Amounts due on long-term debt are $2.5 million in 1995, $18.0 million in 1996, $2.6 million in 1997, $12.1 million in 1998, $3.6 million in 1999 and $77.9 million thereafter, which includes $56.6 million of commercial paper. The company has an effective shelf registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission which permits the company to offer up to $100 million of debt securities in amounts, at prices and on terms, to be determined at the time of offering. Such debt securities would be unsecured senior securities ranking equal with all other unsecured senior securities of the company. The Marine Terminal Refunding Revenue Bonds have a variable interest rate. The company has entered into an interest rate swap agreement that effectively fixes the interest rate at 6.5%. During 1994, 1993 and 1992, interest paid, net of amounts capitalized, amounted to $3.0 million, $3.9 million and $5.2 million, respectively. NOTE 5 - OTHER BALANCE SHEET INFORMATION

NOTE 6 - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY The company has 147 million authorized shares consisting of 2 million shares of Serial Preferred Stock, 25 million shares of Serial Preference Shares and 120 million Common Shares, each of which is without par value. The outstanding Common Shares shown on the balance sheets exclude Common Shares held in treasury of 21,351,334 and 19,605,866 at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The company effected a two-for-one stock split effective August 31, 1992. The company has a shareholder rights plan under which one right to buy one-half Common Share has been distributed for each Common Share held. The rights may become exercisable under certain circumstances involving actual or potential acquisitions of 20% or more of the Common Shares by a person or affiliated persons who acquire such stock without complying with the requirements of the company's articles of incorporation. The rights would entitle shareholders, other than such person or affiliated persons, to purchase Common Shares of the company or of certain acquiring persons at 50% of then current market value. At the option of the directors, the rights may be exchanged for Common Shares, and may be redeemed in cash, securities or other consideration. The rights will expire in 1997 unless earlier redeemed. Under another shareholder rights plan, each holder of Common Shares has one right to buy shares of Serial Preferred Stock for each Common Share held. The rights may become exercisable under certain circumstances involving actual or potential acquisitions of 20% or more of the company's Common Shares by a person or affiliated persons. The rights would entitle shareholders, other than such person or affiliated persons, to purchase shares of Serial Preferred Stock at the purchase price of 1 dollar plus 25 rights per share. The dividend and redemption value of the Serial Preferred Stock would be determined in relation to after-tax amounts which have been or may be recovered by the company from Exxon or its affiliates as a result of certain patent claims. The rights will expire in November 1996 unless earlier redeemed. NOTE 7 - OTHER INCOME AND GENENTECH GAIN The company sold 869,100 and 1,001,776 shares of Genentech, Inc. redeemable common stock for cash during 1994 and 1993, respectively. The gains realized on these transactions were $41.2 million in 1994 and $42.4 million in 1993 and, after tax, contributed $.41 per share in each year. At December 31, 1994, the company held 830,900 shares of Genentech redeemable common stock. Genentech, at its option, may redeem the common stock in whole, but not in part, at various redemption prices per share ranging from $58.75 at January 1, 1995, to $60 at June 30, 1995.

NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES Effective January 1, 1993, the company adopted SFAS 109, which is an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the company's financial statements and tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, SFAS 109 generally considers all expected future events other than changes in tax laws or rates not yet enacted. Previously, the company accounted for income taxes under SFAS 96, which gave no recognition to future events other than the recovery of assets and settlement of liabilities at their carrying value. As permitted under SFAS 109, the company elected not to restate the financial statements of any prior years. The cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 109 at January 1, 1993 increased net income by $12.1 million, or $.18 per share. The effects of the change on both income before income taxes and the effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, were not material. Income before income taxes consists of the following:
1994 1993 1992 -------- -------- -------- United States $163,508 $ 68,673 $ 80,248 Foreign 87,951 50,978 96,896 -------- -------- -------- Total $251,459 $119,651 $177,144 ======== ======== ========

Foreign taxes include withholding taxes. The United States tax provision includes the U.S. tax on foreign income distributed to the company. U.S. and foreign income tax rate changes occurring during the periods presented did not have a material effect on the company's provision for income taxes. The differences between the provision for income taxes at the U.S. statutory rate (35% for 1994 and 1993 and 34% for 1992) and the tax shown in the consolidated statements of income are summarized as follows:
1994 1993 1992 --------- --------- --------- Tax at statutory rate $ 88,011 $ 41,878 $ 60,229 Contribution of appreciated property (5,050) Foreign sales corporation earnings (3,885) (2,964) (3,702) Equity income (812) (1,551) (1,955) Other - net (2,380) (2,687) (2,074) --------- --------- --------- Provision for income taxes $ 75,884 $ 34,676 $ 52,498 ========= ========= =========

At December 31, 1994, certain foreign subsidiaries have net operating loss carry forwards of $13 million for income tax purposes, of which $6 million expires in years 1995 through 2002 and $7 million has no expiration. After evaluating tax planning strategies and historical and projected profitability, the tax benefit of these net operating loss carry forwards has been recognized as a deferred tax asset. U.S. income taxes or foreign withholding taxes are not provided on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries which are considered to be indefinitely reinvested in the operations of such subsidiaries. The amount of such earnings was approximately $275 million at December 31, 1994. Determination of the net amount of unrecognized U.S. income tax with respect to these earnings is not practicable. Income taxes paid during 1994, 1993 and 1992, amounted to $70.9 million, $61.2 million and $62.6 million, respectively. NOTE 9 - PENSION AND PROFIT SHARING PLANS The company has retirement plans, including non-contributory defined benefit pension plans and a profit sharing plan, covering most employees in the United States and at non-U.S. subsidiaries. Pension benefits are based on years of service and the employee's compensation. The company's funding policy in the United States is to contribute amounts to satisfy the Internal Revenue Service funding standards and elsewhere to fund amounts in accordance with local regulations. Several defined benefit plans are unfunded. Plan assets are invested principally in marketable equity securities and fixed income instruments. Expense for all retirement plans was $24.1 million in 1994, $25.1 million in 1993 and $20.0 million in 1992, including profit sharing contributions in the U.S. of $5.7 million in 1994, $3.8 million in 1993 and $3.9 million in 1992. Net periodic pension cost of U.S. and significant international defined benefit plans consists of:
1994 1993 1992 -------- -------- -------- Service cost - benefits earned during period $ 11,454 $ 10,107 $ 9,814 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 16,769 16,115 14,787 Actual return on plan assets 1,510 (24,830) (17,926) Net amortization and deferral (14,695) 16,363 5,779 -------- -------- -------- Net periodic pension cost $ 15,038 $ 17,755 $ 12,454 ======== ======== ========
The increase in net periodic pension cost for 1993 results largely from the company's realignment and early retirement programs accounted for in the special charge (see Note 17). The weighted average assumptions used at December 31 were:
1994 1993 1992 ------ ------ ------ Discount rate for determin- ing funded status 8.2% 7.2% 8.0% Compensation increase 5.2% 5.1% 5.8% Return on plan assets 8.6% 8.5% 8.9%
The funded status of such defined benefit pension plans and the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31 is as follows:
1994 1993 ------------------- ------------------ Assets Accum. Assets Accum. Exceed Benefits Exceed Benefits Accum. Exceed Accum. Exceed Benefits Assets Benefits Assets -------- -------- -------- -------- Fair value of plan assets $180,905 $ 6,273 $133,755 $ 48,142 Projected benefit obligation (186,988) (36,599) (140,363) (79,541) -------- -------- -------- -------- Projected benefit obligation in excess of plan assets (6,083) (30,326) (6,608) (31,399) Unrecognized net transition obligation (asset) (14,871) 3,531 (12,794) 119 Unrecognized net loss (gain) 14,408 1,670 (446) 12,049 Unrecognized prior service cost 15,299 4,222 17,566 3,179 Minimum liability adjustment (983) (3,177) -------- -------- -------- -------- Accrued pension asset (liability) $ 8,753 $(21,886) $ (2,282) $(19,229) ======== ======== ======== ======== Accumulated benefit obligation $138,258 $ 26,020 $ 88,735 $ 70,608 ======== ======== ======== ======== Vested benefits $133,880 $ 21,901 $ 83,543 $ 67,344 ======== ======== ======== ========
32 14 NOTE 10 - POSTRETIREMENT HEALTH CARE The company provides certain postretirement benefits other than pensions, primarily health care, for retired employees. Currently, substantially all of the company's full-time employees in the U.S. become eligible for these benefits after attaining specified years of service and age 55 at retirement. Participants contribute a portion of the cost of such benefits. The company's postretirement health care plans are not funded. Effective January 1, 1993, the company adopted SFAS 106 which requires the company to accrue the estimated cost of retiree benefit payments during the years the employee provides services. The company previously expensed the cost of these benefits as claims were incurred. The company elected to immediately recognize the cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle. The cumulative effect at January 1, 1993 of adopting SFAS 106 was to record a liability for the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation of $79.9 million, an increase in deferred income tax assets of $28.4 million and a decrease in net income of $51.5 million ($.76 per share). The status of the U.S. health care plans at December 31 is as follows:
1994 1993 ------- ------- Accumulated postretirement benefit obligations: Retirees $33,778 $32,885 Fully eligible active plan participants 16,941 20,866 Other active plan participants 18,724 38,198 ------- ------- Total accumulated postretirement benefit obligation 69,443 91,949 Unrecognized net (loss) gain 7,949 (2,526) Unrecognized net reduction in prior service costs 20,036 ------- ------- Accrued postretirement health care costs $97,428 $89,423 ======= =======
The net postretirement health care cost for 1994 was determined based on the provisions of the company's medical plan in effect on January 1, 1994. In late 1994, the company amended its U.S. health care plan, including several changes with delayed effective dates. These amendments changed the eligibility requirements by requiring 15 years of service prior to retirement for new employees and current employees under the age of 40 at the effective date of January 1, 1995, and changed the cost sharing provisions of the plan by indexing deductibles and copayments and introducing a cap on the company's share of future premium costs. These changes reduced the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 1994 by $20.0 million, which will be amortized as a reduction in annual cost on a straight-line basis over 12 years. The assumed health care cost trend rate used in measuring the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 10.5% in 1994 (11.25% in 1993), with subsequent annual decrements of .75% to an ultimate trend rate of 6%. A one-percentage-point increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate for each year would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation by approximately 14% and net postretirement benefit cost by approximately 23%. The discount rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 8.75% in 1994 and 7.5% in 1993. Net postretirement health care cost consists of the following components for the company's U.S. plans:
1994 1993 -------- ------- Service cost - benefits earned during the year $ 2,916 $ 2,620 Interest cost on accumulated postretirement benefit obligation 7,131 6,724 -------- ------- Net postretirement health care cost $ 10,047 $ 9,344 ======== =======
In 1994, the company applied SFAS 106 for its international locations and recognized expense and accrued postretirement health care cost of $4.0 million for the transition obligation. The postretirement health care cost increased $8.1 million ($.08 per share after taxes) in 1993 as a result of adopting SFAS 106. Postretirement health care expense on a pay-as-you-go basis was $1.8 million in 1992. NOTE 11 - LEASES The company has commitments under operating leases primarily for office space, terminal facilities, land, railroad tank cars and various office equipment. Rental expense was $19.3 million in 1994, $19.0 million in 1993 and $18.3 million in 1992. Future minimum rental commitments under operating leases having initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms exceeding one year are $14.0 million in 1995, $7.3 million in 1996, $5.4 million in 1997, $3.5 million in 1998, $2.2 million in 1999 and $23.4 million thereafter. 33 15 NOTE 12 - OPERATIONS IN GEOGRAPHIC AREAS Financial data by geographic area, based on the location of the subsidiary which shipped and billed the product, is as follows:

Intercompany transfers are made at prices comparable to normal unaffiliated customer sales for similar products. B. Affiliated companies are not allocated to geographic segments. C. Corporate assets consist of short-term investments and investments in affiliated companies.
Export sales from the United States to customers, primarily in Latin America, the Middle East and Asia, were $139 million in 1994, $119 million in 1993 and $136 million in 1992. Net assets of non-U.S. subsidiaries at December 31, 1994 and 1993 were $388 million and $326 million, respectively. Net income of these subsidiaries was $55 million in 1994, $42 million in 1993 and $59 million in 1992; and dividends received from the subsidiaries were $8 million, $34 million and $26 million, respectively. NOTE 13 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The company has various financial instruments, including cash and short-term investments, investments in nonconsolidated companies, foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and short- and long-term debt. The company has determined the estimated fair value of these financial instruments by using available market information and generally accepted valuation methodologies. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The company believes the carrying values of financial instruments approximate their fair values except for certain investments in marketable securities (see Note 3). The company uses derivative financial instruments only to manage well-defined foreign currency, interest rate and commodity price risks, as described below. The company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The company is exposed to the effect of changes in foreign currency rates on its earnings and cash flow as a result of doing business internationally. In addition to working capital management, pricing and sourcing, the company selectively uses foreign currency forward contracts to lessen the potential effect of these changes. Such contracts are generally in connection with transactions with maturities of up to one year. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on these contracts are recorded in the statement of income, or in the case of transactions designated as hedges of net foreign investments, in the cumulative translation adjustment account in other shareholders' equity. Additionally, foreign currency forward contract gains and losses on certain future transactions may be deferred until the future transaction is recorded. The company's deferred currency gains at December 31, 1994 on foreign exchange contracts were insignificant. At December 31, 1994, the company had short-term forward contracts to sell currencies at various dates during 1995 for $12.2 million. The maximum amount of foreign currency forward contracts outstanding at any one time was $25.7 million in 1994 and $45.6 million in 1993. The company has also entered into an interest rate swap to effectively convert floating rate debt to a fixed rate on $18.4 million of Marine Terminal Refunding Revenue Bonds due July 1, 2000 (see Note 4). The company also uses commodity futures contracts to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in raw material costs for its specialty vegetable oils. Realized gains and losses on these contracts are included in inventory cost. 34 16 NOTE 14 - BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION The company has a concentration of sales and receivables in the oil and chemical industries. The ten largest customers, most of which are international oil companies and a number of which are groups of affiliated entities, accounted for approximately 45% in 1994 and 44% of consolidated sales in 1993 and 1992. Although the largest single group accounted for 9% of sales in 1994 and 1993 and 10% in 1992, this group is made up of a number of separate entities that the company believes make independent purchasing decisions. The company's Agribusiness activities ceased being reportable as a separate industry segment after December 1, 1992 (see Note 16). A description of the company's reportable segments prior to December 1, 1992, is contained on page 20. Industry segment information as of and for the year ended December 31, 1992, is presented below:
Specialty Chemicals Agribusiness Total --------- ------------ ----- Operating results: Revenues $1,433,358 $ 118,890 $1,552,248 Gross profit 450,967 39,327 490,294 Selling and administrative expenses 147,653 33,673 181,326 Research, testing and development expenses 139,810 14,952 154,762 Segment income (loss) 185,148 (11,459) 173,689 Identifiable assets 871,401 104,339 975,740 Other related disclosures: Capital expenditures 89,172 6,642 95,814 Depreciation and amortization 55,024 6,989 62,013
Segment income (loss) is before interest and taxes. Consolidated total assets at December 31, 1992 included corporate investments of $151,380 which are not allocable to industry segments. NOTE 15 - STOCK OPTIONS The 1991 Stock Incentive Plan provides for granting of options to buy Common Shares intended either to qualify as "incentive stock options" under the Internal Revenue Code or "non-statutory stock options" not intended to so qualify, up to an amount equal to one percent of the outstanding Common Shares at the beginning of any year, plus any unused amount from prior years. Under the 1991 Plan, options generally become exercisable 50% one year after grant, 75% after two years, and 100% after three years, and expire up to ten years after grant. "Reload options," which are options to purchase additional shares if a grantee uses already-owned shares to pay for an option exercise are granted automatically under the 1991 Plan and may be granted in the discretion of the administering committee under their 1985 Employee Stock Option Plan. The 1991 Plan generally supersedes the 1985 Plan, although options outstanding under the 1985 Plan remain exercisable until their expiration dates. The option price under both plans is the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. Both plans permit or permitted the granting of stock appreciation rights in connection with the grant of options, and the 1991 Plan also permits the grant of restricted and unrestricted shares. In addition, the 1991 Plan provides for an automatic annual grant to each outside director of the company of an option to purchase 2,000 Common Shares, with terms generally comparable to employee stock options. Information regarding these option plans is as follows:
Number of Shares --------------------------------------- 1994 1993 1992 ---------- --------- --------- Outstanding, January 1 2,338,875 2,147,263 1,970,446 Granted at $26.06 to $37.50 per share 614,815 624,546 596,290 Exercised at $9.31 to $32.81 per share (364,519) (394,178) (407,697) Surrendered at $11.69 to $37.50 per share (5,450) (38,756) (11,776) ---------- --------- --------- Outstanding, December 31 2,583,721 2,338,875 2,147,263 ========= ========= ========= Exercisable, December 31 1,652,012 1,341,767 1,210,767 ========= ========= ========= Available for grant, December 31 1,873,286 1,816,751 1,718,036 ========= ========= =========
The 1985 Plan options expire June 1995 to November 2004, with an average option price of $24.72. The 1991 Plan options expire April 2001 to June 2004, with an average option price of $33.33. NOTE 16 - TRANSACTIONS WITH MYCOGEN CORPORATION On December 1, 1992, the company transferred certain of its Agribusiness assets to Mycogen Corporation in exchange for 2,294,590 shares of Mycogen Common Stock and $39.4 million par value of Mycogen Series A Preferred Stock. The remainder of its Agribusiness assets, plus cash of $4.6 million, and exclusive of specialty vegetable oil operations, was transferred to Agrigenetics, L.P., a partnership with Mycogen, in exchange for a 49% partnership interest. On December 31, 1993, the company sold 29.54% of Agrigenetics, L.P. to Mycogen in exchange for cash of $7.0 million and 2,000,000 shares of Mycogen Common Stock valued at $20.5 million. This transaction increased the company's ownership of the outstanding Mycogen Common Stock from 25% to 32%. Mycogen liquidated Agrigenetics, L.P. into a successor corporation named Agrigenetics Inc. ("AGI") and issued to the company AGI common shares representing a 19.46% ownership interest. The company has the right to convert some or all of its interest in AGI into Mycogen Common Stock or, after November 30, 2000, the company may require Mycogen to purchase, and Mycogen may require the company to sell, some or all of its then remaining interest in AGI for cash. The company and Mycogen have agreed the value for the conversion or sale of the company's interest in AGI will not be less than $21.4 million nor more than $26.3 million. On December 1, 1993, Mycogen mandatorily redeemed $10 million of the Preferred Stock for cash. The Preferred Stock held by the company pays cumulative dividends of 5% per year through November 30, 1996; 8.5% from December 1, 1996 through 35 17 November 30, 2000; and the higher of 10% or prime plus 3% per annum thereafter. At Mycogen's option, dividends may be paid in cash or additional shares of Preferred Stock through November 30, 1997 and, thereafter, are payable in cash. The company, at its option, may convert the Preferred Stock into Mycogen Common Stock at the lower of $17.96 per share or 125% of the market price. At December 31, 1994, the book carrying values of the company's investments aggregated $41.2 million for Mycogen and AGI Common Stock and $30.0 million for Mycogen Preferred Stock. The company uses the equity method of accounting for its investment in the Common Stock of Mycogen which includes AGI (formerly Agrigenetics, L.P.). Other income-net includes the following amounts related to these investments.
1994 1993 1992 -------- -------- -------- Preferred dividends $ 1,454 $ 1,975 $ 164 Equity losses (94) (20,997) (2,708) Gain on sale of investments 13,174 -------- -------- -------- $ 1,360 $ (5,848) $ (2,544) ======== ======== ========
The 1992 consolidated financial statements include revenues of $88.6 million, costs and expenses of $95.9 million and segment loss of $6.1 million related to the agribusiness transferred assets. NOTE 17 - SPECIAL CHARGE The company recorded a special charge of $86.3 million ($.83 per share after tax) in the third quarter of 1993 in connection with manufacturing rationalization and organizational realignment initiatives. The manufacturing rationalization plan will be substantially complete by the end of 1996 and through consolidation is resulting in cost savings from a reduced number of employees, lower operating costs and fewer manufacturing units used to produce intermediate products. Approximately $51 million of the special charge relates to the manufacturing rationalization of which $27 million relates to asset write-downs, including $16 million for the shutdown of manufacturing units used to produce intermediate products. The remainder of the rationalization portion of the special charge relates to expected employee reduction at manufacturing locations through early retirements, equipment cleanup and dismantling, employee relocation and other transitional costs. The organizational realignment relates to the consolidation of the company's nonmanufacturing activities. This portion of the special charge is approximately $35 million and includes $16 million for employee early retirement and relocation. The remainder of this portion of the special charge relates to asset write-downs of $13 million, primarily in the company's Agribusiness investments and accruals for transitional costs. In 1994, the company updated the estimated costs to complete the initiatives and as a result reclassified approximately $5 million of the special charge from the manufacturing rationalization portion to the organizational realignment portion. This reclassification reduced the amount of asset write-downs and increased the amount related to employee reductions and other transitional items related to the two initiatives. Cash outlays related to the special charge were approximately $18 million during 1994 and $4 million in 1993. Included in liabilities at December 31, 1994, are future cash outlays of $24 million, primarily for employee reductions and lease terminations, of which $9 million is expected to be spent in 1995. NOTE 18 - LITIGATION On November 18, 1993, a federal court jury in Houston, Texas, awarded Exxon Corporation $48 million in damages in a patent case brought, in 1989, against the company. The damages award relates to a December 1992 verdict that the company willfully infringed an Exxon patent pertaining to an oil soluble copper additive component. On February 18, 1994, the trial court judge doubled the damages amount and awarded prejudgment interest, court costs and additional attorneys' fees to Exxon. The total amount of the judgment, including previously awarded attorneys' fees, is $129 million. The company has obtained a bond to stay enforcement of the judgment pending the company's appeal discussed below. The original December 1992 finding of willful infringement, as well as the jury's determination that the patent is valid, remains on appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit Court in Washington, D.C., which has jurisdiction over all patent cases. Oral arguments on this appeal were held on December 6, 1993, and the company does not know when a decision will be announced. This decision could reverse or modify the judgment against the company. In addition, oral arguments on the company's appeal of the February 1994 damages award will be heard by the same court in Washington, D.C., on March 8, 1995. The company's management continues to believe that it has not infringed the Exxon patent and that the patent is invalid. Based on the advice of legal counsel, management believes that the December 1992 trial court judgment will not be upheld on appeal. Therefore, no amount related to the judgment has been recorded in the company's financial statements. The company has prevailed in a separate case brought in Canada against Exxon's Canadian affiliate, Imperial Oil, Ltd., for infringement of the company's patent pertaining to dispersant, the largest additive component used in motor oils. A 1990 trial court verdict in favor of the company regarding the issue of liability was upheld by the Federal Court of Appeals of Canada in December 1992, and in October 1993, the Supreme Court of Canada dismissed Imperial Oil's appeal of the Court of appeals decision. The case has returned to the trial court for an assessment of damages. On October 4, 1994, the trial court judge awarded the company $15 million (Canadian) in special penalty damages, plus attorneys' fees, against Imperial Oil for disregarding an earlier injunction for the manufacture or sale of the dispersant which is the subject of this case. Imperial Oil commenced proceedings to appeal the award of penalty damages. The company has not reflected the award of penalty damages within its financial statements pending the outcome of the appeal process. The penalty damages are in addition to compensation damages, as to which no date has been set for a determination. A reasonable estimation of the company's potential recovery for compensation damages cannot be made at this time. 36 18 QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA (UNAUDITED)
