ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS (a) Financial Statements of Business Acquired. The audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements of Global Stone Corporation ("Global Stone") are attached hereto at pages F-1 through F-28. (b) Pro Forma Financial Information The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements of the Registrant are included herein at pages P-1 through P-10. The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements of the Registrant are presented for illustrative purposes only, giving effect to the acquisition of Global Stone. The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements of the Registrant also include the acquisitions of Colorado Silica Sands, Inc. ("Colorado Silica"), acquired on March 9, 1998, the Port Inland operations of Specialty Minerals Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Minerals Technology Inc., ("Port Inland"), acquired on April 28, 1998, and the disposal of the assets of the Registrant's discontinued Engineered Materials metallurgical treatment operations ("Engineered Materials"), sold on May 15, 1998. Collectively these transactions are referred to as "Other Recent Transactions", each of which did not meet the definition of a significant subsidiary under Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X requiring separate financial statement presentation. All of the acquisitions will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, whereby the purchase price is allocated based on the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet of the Registrant as of March 31, 1998 gives effect to the acquisition of Global Stone as if this transaction occurred on that date and includes the pro forma adjustments to reflect the combination. The pro forma combined balance sheet also includes the pro forma effects of the Port Inland and Engineered Materials transactions as if they had occurred as of March 31, 1998. 3 Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits (Continued) The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the three months ended March 31, 1998 give effect to the acquisition of Global Stone as if this transaction had occurred on January 1, 1997. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 includes the statements of operations of the Registrant and Global Stone for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1997 and September 30, 1997, respectively, and the pro forma adjustments to reflect the combination. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998, includes the statements of operations of the Registrant and Global Stone for the respective periods and the pro forma adjustments to reflect the combination. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 and for the three months ended March 31, 1998 also include the pro forma effects of the Colorado Silica and Port Inland acquisitions. The sale of the Engineered Materials assets did not result in any gain or additional loss upon disposal. The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations had the acquisitions taken place at the beginning of the respective periods or of future results of the combined companies. The purchase price allocations are preliminary; therefore, final amounts could differ from those reflected in the pro forma combined financial statements. Upon final determination, the purchase prices will be allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired based on fair value as of the date of each respective acquisition. The principal pro forma adjustments to the unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 and for the three months March 31, 1998 include entries to convert Global Stone's historical statements of income from Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("Canadian GAAP") to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"), to reflect cost depletion related to the pro forma write-up of Global Stone's mineral reserves to estimated fair value, to reflect goodwill amortization related to the pro forma excess of acquisition costs over the fair value of net assets acquired and to reflect interest expense on pro forma debt. The principal pro forma adjustments to the unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of March 31, 1998 include entries to convert Global Stone's historical balance sheet from Canadian GAAP to U.S. GAAP, an increase in pro forma debt to finance the purchase of Global Stone's common stock, pro forma write-up of Global Stone's mineral reserves to estimated fair value, a pro forma adjustment to recognize the excess of acquisition costs over the fair value of assets acquired, and the pro forma recognition of a deferred tax liability on the acquisition costs in excess of historical net assets acquired. -2- 4 Item 7.

F-1 6 AUDITORS' REPORT To the Directors of GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION as at September 30, 1997 and 1996 and the consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and changes in financial position for each of the years in the three-year period ended September 30, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance 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. In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at September 30, 1997 and 1996 and the results of its operations and the changes in its financial position for each of the years in the three-year period ended September 30, 1997 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada.

See accompanying notes F-5 10 GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN CANADIAN DOLLARS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED) September 30, 1997 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The consolidated financial statements of Global Stone Corporation [the "Company"] have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada, which conform in all material respects with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States except as outlined in note 17. The significant accounting policies followed by the Company are summarized below: BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all subsidiaries. Non-controlling interest represents the non-controlling shareholder's proportionate share, or 40%, of the equity in the Company's consolidated subsidiary, Global Stone (UK) Ltd. ["Global Stone (UK)"]. TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES The Company's foreign subsidiaries are considered to be self-sustaining operations and their accounts are translated into Canadian dollars using the current rate method, under which all assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the year end, and revenue and expenses [including depreciation, depletion and amortization] are translated at the average rates of exchange during the year. Gains and losses on translation of these account balances are deferred and shown as a separate item in shareholders' equity. Gains or losses on foreign currency long-term debt that is designated as a hedge of net investments in self-sustaining foreign operations are also included as translation adjustments in shareholders' equity. INVENTORIES Inventories are valued at the lower of average cost, determined on a monthly basis using the fully-absorbed method, or net realizable value. Cost includes direct labour, operating overheads and material costs as well as depreciation and depletion at the operating properties, but excludes administrative expenses. Consumables and maintenance spares are valued at the lower of acquisition cost less an obsolescence provision, and replacement cost. DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS Costs related to long-term financing that are not related to a specific acquisition are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term to maturity of the related debt instrument. F-6 11 GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN CANADIAN DOLLARS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED) September 30, 1997 POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS Substantially all of the Company's employees are covered under one of the Company's pension plans, union-sponsored plans or group retirement related savings schemes to which the Company contributes. Pension costs and obligations of the Company's defined benefit plans are actuarially determined on the basis of management's best estimate assumptions using the projected unit credit method. Adjustments arising from plan amendments, changes in assumptions and experience gains or losses are amortized to income on a straight-line basis over the expected average remaining service life of the related employee group. For defined contribution plans, union-sponsored plans and group retirement related savings schemes, the Company expenses the annual contributions specified by these plans. The Company also provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees and their dependents. The cost of these benefits is expensed when paid. CAPITAL ASSETS Capital assets are initially recorded at cost and depreciated or depleted over their remaining estimated useful lives as follows: Property, plant and equipment 2 - 25 years, straight-line Mineral reserves Unit of production basis The Company incurs advance costs on the removal of overburden to expose the usable limestone. These costs are carried as deferred quarry development costs and charged to depreciation and depletion as the related limestone is quarried. The Company defers costs related to the acquisition of aggregates or industrial mineral operations until a property is acquired or the acquisition is abandoned. If the property is acquired, the acquisition costs are capitalized and allocated to specific acquired assets and are amortized in accordance with the Company's accounting policy for the related assets. If the acquisition is abandoned, the costs are charged to depreciation and depletion in the year in which the abandonment decision is made. Interest incurred during the construction of capital assets is capitalized. Construction in progress is not depreciated until the capital asset is put into operation. Amounts paid for extraction rights are amortized over the total output allowed under the rights based on the unit of production basis. The Company ascribes a value to acquired mineral reserves which reflects the extent, quality and comparative values for similar materials in the geographic area. The capital value is depleted on a per ton basis as the reserve is consumed. Reviews of reserves and amortization rates are carried out by the Company [including the use of consulting geologists] on a periodic basis and adjustments are made if significant variances are identified. The amounts shown for mineral F-7 12 GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN CANADIAN DOLLARS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED) September 30, 1997 reserves do not necessarily represent future values and changes in legislation, market conditions or extraction constraints may have a material effect on future carrying values and operating results. INCOME TAXES The Company follows the deferral method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, timing differences between the period in which income and expenses are reported for income tax purposes and the period in which they are recorded in the accounts result in deferred income taxes. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The carrying values of cash and temporary investments, accounts receivable, bank indebtedness, accounts payable and accrued charges approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The Company estimates the fair value of its capital lease obligations and long-term debt by discounting expected future cash flows at current interest rates. 2. INVENTORIES Inventories consist of the following:

The carrying values of the capital lease obligations approximate fair values. 5. BANK INDEBTEDNESS At September 30, 1997, the Company had the following credit facilities from a Canadian chartered bank [the "bank"]: [a] an operating facility of $2.5 million, repayable on demand and bearing interest at the prime rate of the bank plus 0.125% [the "operating facility"]; [b] a revolving facility of $8.8 million, which can be drawn down in either Canadian dollars or U.S. dollars, repayable within one year, subject to 364-day extensions at the discretion of the bank. Canadian dollar loans bear interest at the prime rate of the bank plus 0.125% while U.S. dollar loans bear interest at the bank's floating rate for U.S. dollar commercial loans plus 0.375% or LIBOR plus 1.125% [the "revolving facility"]; and [c] a revolving term facility of U.S. $4.8 million, which can be drawn down in either Canadian dollars or U.S. dollars, with repayment terms through to 1998. Canadian dollar loans bear interest at the prime rate of the bank plus 0.375% while U.S. dollar loans bear interest at the bank's floating rate for U.S. dollar commercial loans plus 0.125% or LIBOR plus 1.125% [the "revolving term facility"]. LIBOR averaged 5.726% in 1997. When the revolving facility and revolving term facility are drawn down in U.S. dollars, repayments will be denominated in U.S. dollars. The outstanding balances under the operating facility and revolving facility were Cdn. $492,000 [1996 - Cdn. $2,500,000] and Cdn. $8,708,000 [comprising U.S. $2,250,000 and Cdn. $5,600,000] [1996 - U.S. $750,000 and Cdn $3,060,000], respectively. The amount drawn in U.S. dollars bears interest at the bank's floating rate for U.S. dollar commercial loans plus 0.375% which was 8.875% at year end. The amount drawn in Canadian dollars bears interest at the prime rate of the bank plus 0.375%, which was 4.75% at year end. F-10 15 GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN CANADIAN DOLLARS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED) September 30, 1997 Collateral for the operating facility and revolving facility is a first charge over receivables and inventories and all proceeds thereof of the Company and its North American subsidiaries. 6.

The holders of the Debentures share with the bank on a pro-rata basis the collateral associated with the revolving term facility [note 5[b]]. The Company may redeem the Debentures, in whole or in part, at any time prior to maturity in amounts not less than $1,000,000. F-11 16 GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN CANADIAN DOLLARS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED) September 30, 1997 On February 15, 1995, the Company completed a private placement for a $55 million debt facility with a group of leading North American life assurance companies. At that time, $30 million of the facility was drawn down. The remaining facility was drawn down in December 1995. Further Debentures with a par value of $23,350,000 were sold for $25 million producing a net discounted interest rate of 8.699%, a reflection of the lower interest rate prevailing in the market. The difference of the par value and the proceeds of these debentures was recorded as debenture premium on the consolidated balance sheets of the Company to be amortized over the term of the Debentures. Costs of issuing the Debentures, including underwriting commissions, amounted to $1,100,000 and are recorded in the accounts as deferred financing costs to be amortized to income over the term of the Debentures. The unamortized balance at September 30, 1997 was $701,000 [1996 - $857,000]. Repayments are required as follows:

The fair value of the Debentures is approximately $57,153,000 at September 30, 1997. [b] COMINCO SUBORDINATED DEBENTURE On October 21, 1996, the outstanding $3 million loan from Cominco Ltd. ["Cominco"] was converted into 545,454 common shares. No proceeds were received by the Company as a result of this conversion. [c] AMOUNT DUE TO NON-CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDER OF GLOBAL STONE (UK) LTD. This loan, which bears interest at 12% per annum, was incurred by Global Stone (UK) Ltd. from its 40% non-controlling shareholder, Electra Investment Trust Plc. The outstanding balance at year end is repayable in equal annual instalments between October 26, 1996 and October 26, 1998. Collateral for this borrowing is a fixed and floating charge on the assets of Global Stone (UK) Ltd. F-12 17 GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN CANADIAN DOLLARS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED) September 30, 1997 [d] AMOUNT DUE TO VENDOR OF ST. CLAIR LIME COMPANY The balance of the purchase price is satisfied by a discount note payable which is stated at its present value of U.S.$ 5,030,000 [Cdn. $6,850,000] using a 5.5% discount rate. The discount note is to be repaid by five annual payments of blended interest and principal of U.S. $1.2 million, the first payment having been paid on December 1, 1996 being reduced by a non-refundable deposit of U.S. $100,000 which was paid in 1995. 7. PENSION PLANS The Company maintains two separate defined benefit pension plans, one for the unionized employees of Global Stone (Ingersoll) Ltd. ["Ingersoll"] and one for the unionized employees of Global Stone Tenn Luttrell Company ["Tenn Luttrell"], providing retirement, death and termination benefits. The funded status of these plans is as follows:

The total pension expense, including pension expense for the above defined benefit plans, contributions to contribution plans, union-sponsored plans and group retirement related savings schemes, for the year amounted to $1,371,000 [1996 - $1,144,000; 1995 - $998,000]. As at September 30, 1997, the excess of the amount expensed over the amount funded was included in the consolidated balance sheets in accounts payable and accrued charges [1997 - $123,000; 1996 - $129,000] and in provision for pension plan [1997 - nil; 1996 - $123,000].

At that time, Federated was a shareholder of the Company managed by certain directors and officers of the Company. The purchase price was determined by independent valuations. Global Stone (UK) Ltd.'s assets comprised a limestone dimension stone quarry in Tetbury, Gloucestershire, which has subsequently been sold in 1996, and a 40% interest in a development property at Somerley, Hampshire which owns extraction rights to 4 million tonnes of sand and gravel. DETROIT LIME COMPANY ("DETROIT LIME") On January 1, 1995, the Company paid a deposit of U.S. $5,000,000 (Cdn. $7,079,000) from existing cash resources and an increased bank line of credit to acquire (i) inventories and other working capital and (ii) a ten-year lease of substantially all the capital assets of Detroit Lime. The lease is being accounted for as a capital lease. The deposit and the net present value of the minimum payments under this lease, aggregating to Cdn. $12,741,000, have been capitalized and allocated to the assets acquired. Detroit Lime produces lime products from its plant in Detroit, using limestone purchased from independent Michigan quarries. PENROC INC. & DELTA CARBONATE INC.

F-17 22 GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN CANADIAN DOLLARS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED) September 30, 1997 10. INCOME AND OTHER TAXES Income and other taxes vary from the amount that would be computed by applying the combined federal and provincial income tax rate of approximately 44.5% [1996 - - 44.3%; 1995 - 44.5%] for the following reasons:
1997 1996 1995 $ $ $ [000's] [000's] [000's] Income taxes based on income before income taxes 1,961 4,393 3,300 Increase (decrease) in income taxes resulting from Manufacturing and processing profits deduction -- -- (8) Lower income tax rates on earnings of U.S. subsidiaries (3,032) (3,013) (1,505) Capital taxes 159 326 104 Losses not tax effected 1,013 909 -- Other 612 191 (84) - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES 713 2,806 1,807 =====================================================================================================
Current income tax expense for the year is $1,020,000 [1996 - $3,269,000; 1995 - $1,479,000] and deferred income tax recovery is $307,000 [1996 - deferred income tax recovery of $463,000; 1995 deferred income tax expense of $328,000]. The Company has share issue costs of approximately $784,000 which are available to reduce taxable income and taxes payable in future years. These costs are deductible on a straight-line basis over five years beginning in the year in which they occur. Any tax recoveries will be credited to share issue costs in share capital in the period in which they are realized. 11. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year which amounted to 29,632,826 [1996 - - 25,583,571; 1995 - 21,370,842]. Fully diluted earnings per share show the effect on earnings per share which would result if all the outstanding share options were exercised and converted into common shares and the convertible Cominco debenture was converted into common shares, at the beginning of the fiscal year or the date of issuance if later. 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Related party transactions not disclosed elsewhere in these consolidated financial statements include legal services received from a law practice with which a director of the Company is a partner [1997 - $13,516; 1996 - $116,571; 1995 - $226,000]. F-18 23 GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN CANADIAN DOLLARS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED) September 30, 1997 13. UNUSUAL ITEMS Unusual items of $3,782,000 represent certain costs associated with the flood in July 1997 and for restructuring of the mining operation at Tenn Luttrell. The restructuring costs relate to the write-off of certain development costs due to a change in mining method from open-pit to underground that had been previously capitalized. Restructuring costs also include related severance costs. 14. SEGMENTED INFORMATION The Company operates in one dominant industry segment, the manufacture and distribution of lime and related products for a wide variety of end uses, and primarily in one geographic segment, North America. 15. COMMITMENTS The Company is committed to spending approximately $5 million on capital expenditures, relating to a number of ongoing projects at several of its locations. 16. CONTINGENCY The Company has been named in a lawsuit for alleged damages arising from blasting and dust nuisance operations at one of its locations. The Company believes that this claim is without merit and is vigorously defending its case. 17. SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES ["GAAP"] These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada, which differ in some respects from those in the United States. The following note presents amounts that would have been reported had the Company's consolidated financial statements been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

At September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Corporation's deferred tax assets and liabilities under the requirements of SFAS No. 109 were as follows:

At October 1, 1996, the valuation allowance was $1.742 million. During the year, the valuation allowance increased by $0.93 million, primarily as a result of the increase in net operating loss carry forwards not recognized as deferred tax assets. [c] As a result of differences between Canadian/U.S. GAAP, selected consolidated balance sheet amounts under U.S. GAAP would be as follows:

[d] U.S. GAAP requires disclosure, on a cash basis, of interest paid (net of amounts capitalized) and income taxes paid. During 1997, $6,692,000 of interest was paid in cash [1996 - $5,933,000; 1995 - $4,292,000]. The amount of income taxes paid (refunded) in cash during 1997 was $1,243,000 [1996 - ($239,000); 1995 - $2,115,000]. [e] Under U.S. GAAP, post-retirement benefits are charged against income on an accrual basis. In addition, on the acquisition of an operation, the obligation for post-retirement benefits is recognized as part of the purchase equation. Under Canadian GAAP, the cost of these benefits is expensed when paid. [f] Pension expense calculated under U.S. GAAP differs from that calculated under Canadian GAAP primarily as a result of differences in interest rates, discount rates and treatment of experience gains and losses. [g] Under U.S. GAAP, an unusual item is classified separately as an operating expense. Under Canadian GAAP, it is classified as a non-operating expense. F-22 27 GLOBAL STONE CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN CANADIAN DOLLARS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED) September 30, 1997 [h] Under U.S. GAAP, all non-cash investing and financing transactions are to be excluded from the statement of changes in financial position and the change in bank indebtedness is treated as a financing activity. The exclusion of non-cash transactions and the inclusion of changes in bank indebtedness changes the balance for cash provided by financing activities for the year ended September 30, 1997 under U.S. GAAP to $0.5 million [1996 - $46.5 million; 1995 - $27.5 million]. Cash used in investing activities for the year ended September 30, 1997 under U.S. GAAP would be $23.8 million [1996 - $55.0 million; 1995 - $39.8 million]. Non-cash transactions that have been eliminated from these activities include the issue of shares on the conversion of long term debt; additions to capital assets arising from capital lease transactions; the financing of the St. Clair Lime Co. purchase by debt; and the issuance of shares to acquire Global Stone (UK) Ltd. [i] In 1998, the Company retroactively adopted the requirements under SFAS No. 128 concerning the calculation of earnings per share, which is effective for fiscal periods ending after December 15, 1997. [j] Under U.S. GAAP, the Company accounts for its share option plan under the principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations, which in the Company's circumstances results in no compensation expense being recorded. 18. SUBSEQUENT EVENT On May 15, 1998, Oglebay Norton Acquisition Limited, a subsidiary of Oglebay Norton Company, a Cleveland, Ohio-based company, announced that it had taken up approximately 98.6% of the outstanding common shares of Global Stone Corporation that were deposited in acceptance of its offer dated April 24, 1998. Oglebay Norton Acquisition Limited has also sent to non-depositing shareholders the required notice pursuant to the compulsory acquisition provisions of the Canada Business Corporations Act to acquire the remaining outstanding common shares of Global Stone Corporation at the $7.80 per share offer price.

F-26 31 NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM STATEMENTS These unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada, which differ in some respects from those in the United States. The following note presents amounts that would have been reported had the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Management believes that all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for such periods have been made. [a] Reconciliation of net income between Canadian and United States GAAP (in 000's):

[b] As a result of differences between Canadian/U.S. GAAP, selected consolidated balance sheet amounts under U.S. GAAP would be as follows:

[c] Under U.S. GAAP, the post-retirement benefits are charged against income on an accrual basis. In addition, on the acquisition of an operation, the obligation for post-retirement benefits is recognized as part of the purchase equation. Under Canadian GAAP, the cost of these benefits is expensed when paid. [d] Pension expense calculated under U.S. GAAP differs from that calculated under Canadian GAAP primarily as a result of differences in interest rates, discount rates and treatment of experience gains and losses. [e] Under U.S. GAAP, all non-cash investing and financing transactions are to be excluded from the statement of changes in financial position and the change in bank indebtedness is treated as a financing activity. The exclusion of non-cash transactions and the inclusion of changes in bank indebtedness changes the balance for cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended March 31, 1998 under U.S. GAAP to $2.3 million [March 1997 - $7.6 million]. Cash used in investing activities for the six month ended March 31, 1998 under U.S. GAAP would be $12.3 million [1997 - $10.8 million]. Non-cash transactions that have been eliminated from these activities include the issue of shares on the conversion of long term debt; and additions to capital assets arising from capital lease transactions. [f] In 1998, the Company retroactively adopted the requirements under SFAS No. 128 concerning the calculation of earnings per share, which is effective for fiscal periods ending after December 15, 1997. [g] Under U.S. GAAP, the Company accounts for its share option plan under the principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations, which in the Company's circumstances results in no compensation expense being recorded.

P-3 36 OGLEBAY NORTON COMPANY NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 and three months ended March 31, 1998 were prepared as if Oglebay Norton Company ("Company" or "Oglebay Norton") had acquired Global Stone Corporation ("Global Stone") at January 1, 1997. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes thereto of Oglebay Norton included in its Annual Report on (Form 10-K) for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the audited financial statements and related notes thereto of Global Stone for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997, included herewith. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and related notes thereto of Oglebay Norton included in its Quarterly Report on (Form 10-Q) for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and the unaudited financial statements and related notes thereto of Global Stone for the six months ended March 31, 1998, included herein. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations are not necessarily indicative of operating results that would have been achieved had the acquisition been consummated at the beginning of the periods presented and should not be construed as being representative of future operations. (a) The statements of income of Global Stone were converted to U.S. dollars from Canadian dollars using the monthly average exchange rate in effect the month the transaction occurred, which resulted in annual average exchange rates approximating: US$1.00 to Cdn$1.37 for the twelve month period ended September 30, 1997; and US$1.00 to Cdn$1.43 for the three month period ended March 31, 1998. Global Stone's historical financial statements were prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("Canadian GAAP"). (b) The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations contain pro forma adjustments to conform Global Stone's historical statements of income to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). (c) Other recent transactions include the acquisitions of the Colorado Silica industrial sand operations and Port Inland limestone operations by Oglebay in March and April 1998, respectively. Other recent transactions also include the May 1998 asset sale of Oglebay's Engineered Materials metallurgical treatment operations. The Engineered Materials business segment was classified as a discontinued operation at December 31, 1997. The sale of the Engineered Materials assets did not result in any gain or additional loss upon disposal. These transactions did not meet the definition of a significant subsidiary under Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X requiring separate financial statement presentation. P-4 37 OGLEBAY NORTON COMPANY NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) (d) Under Canadian GAAP, the cost of postretirement benefits is expensed when paid. Under U.S. GAAP, these benefits are charged against income on an accrual basis. Pension expense calculated under U.S. GAAP differs from that calculated under Canadian GAAP primarily as a result of differences in interest rates, discount rates and treatment of experience gains and losses. The pro forma adjustments reflect accrued postretirement benefits, the adjustments to pension expense and the related tax effects necessary to conform Global Stone's historical statements of income to U.S. GAAP. (e) Pro forma depletion expense for Global Stone was computed based on total estimated proven and probable mineral reserves, tons of mineral reserves mined in fiscal 1997 and the pro forma write-up ($86,141) to estimated fair value of Global Stone's mineral reserves. Pro forma goodwill amortization was computed based on the purchase price in excess of fair market value ($33,595) amortized over a 40-year period. The pro forma adjustments to depletion and amortization expense are as follows:
Three Year Ended Months Ended December 31, 1997 March 31, 1998 ----------------- -------------- Pro forma depletion expense adjustment $1,759 $440 Pro forma amortization expense adjustment 840 210 ------ ---- $2,599 $650 ====== ====
(f) Pro forma reduction of general and administrative expense is a result of the combination of Oglebay and Global Stone. Estimated expense savings, which primarily represent Global Stone public company costs, are as follows:
Three Year Ended Months Ended December 31, 1997 March 31, 1998 ----------------- -------------- Insurance costs $175 $ 44 Shareholder relations, annual report and public relations costs 125 31 Board of Directors fees and expenses 110 27 Audit and legal fees 90 23 Other miscellaneous costs 60 15 ---- ---- $560 $140 ==== ====
P-5 38 OGLEBAY NORTON COMPANY NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) (g) Under U.S. GAAP, the unusual items would have been classified separately as a component of income from operations instead of as a non-operating expense under Canadian GAAP. Under U.S. GAAP gains on the sale of assets would have been classified separately as a component of non-operating income instead of as a component of income from operations under Canadian GAAP. (h) Pro Forma Combined interest expense reflects $174,515 borrowed under the Senior Credit Facility, with an assumed average borrowing rate approximating 8%, and $100,000 borrowed under the Senior Subordinated Facility, with an assumed average borrowing rate approximating 10%, outstanding as of January 1, 1997. The borrowed funds were used to purchase all of the outstanding common shares of Global Stone for $172,480. The funds were also used to refinance Global Stone's short-term bank debt of $10,835 and Senior Secured 10.625% Debentures of $37,661 (of which $10,043 was current) and pay a debenture call premium of $3,289 due to a change-in-control provision in the Debenture. The borrowed funds were further used to refinance Oglebay's variable rate term loan of $19,250 (of which $5,500 was current) and revolving credit debt of $25,000 for other recent transactions and pay finance costs of $6,000. (i) Income tax expense on pro forma adjustments related to Oglebay and Global Stone was computed using effective tax rates approximating 35% and 44%, respectively.

Under U.S. GAAP, these benefits are charged against income on an accrual basis. Pension expense calculated under Canadian GAAP differs from that calculated under U.S. GAAP primarily as a result of differences in interest rates, discount rates and treatment of experience gains and losses. The pro forma adjustments reflect the recording of accrued postretirement benefits, the necessary adjustments to pension expense and the related tax effects as of March 31, 1998.
