Report of Independent Accountants
To the Benefit Plans Committee and Participants
of the Crown Cork & Seal Company, Inc.
401(k) Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees
of CONSTAR International, Inc.
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits
and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of the Crown Cork & Seal Company, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan for
Salaried Employees of CONSTAR International, Inc. (the "Plan") at December 31,
1998 and 1997, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards which 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,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of Assets Held
for Investment Purposes and of Reportable Transactions are presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental
schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.
As explained in Note 7, the Plan was merged with and into the Crown Cork & Seal
Company, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan effective March 31, 1999.

1. Description of Plan
The following description of the Crown Cork & Seal Company, Inc. 401(k)
Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees of CONSTAR International,
Inc. (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should
refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's
provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all salaried employees of
CONSTAR International, Inc. (the "Company") who have completed one year of
service. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
Contributions
Each year, participants may make a basic pre-tax contribution of 2 percent
to 6 percent of their compensation, as defined in the Plan. In addition,
participants may make a supplemental pre-tax contribution up to 10 percent
of their pre-tax compensation plus an "added value" contribution of up to
10 percent of compensation. The aggregate of these contributions may not
exceed 17 percent of the participant's compensation, subject to certain
limitations. In addition, participants may make after-tax contributions of
up to 10 percent of their compensation. The Company contributes 50 percent
of the first 6 percent of the participant's aggregate pre-tax and after-tax
contributions.
Participant accounts
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution
and allocations of (a) the Company's contributions and (b) Plan earnings,
and charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. Allocations are
based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined. The benefit
to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from
the participant's vested account.
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and the
Company's contributions plus actual earnings thereon.
Participant loans
Participants may borrow from their account a minimum of $500 up to a
maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of their account
balance. Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from) the
investment fund from (to) the Participant Loan. Loan terms range from 1 to
5 years. Longer periods may be approved by the Plan Administrator if the
loan is used to purchase a primary residence. The loans are secured by the
balance in the participant's account and bear interest at a rate
commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined by the Plan
administrator. Interest rates ranged from 9.5 percent to 10 percent and 7
percent to 10 percent for loans outstanding as of December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively. Principal and interest is paid ratably through monthly
payroll deductions.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Payment of Benefits
On termination of service due to death, disability or retirement, a
participant may elect to receive either a lump sum amount equal to the
value of the participant's vested interest in his/her account or monthly
installments over a period equal to the life expectancy of the recipient or
beneficiary. For termination of service due to other reasons, a participant
may receive the value of the vested interest in his or her account as a
lump sum distribution.
Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to
terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.
Investment Options
Participants are able to allocate their contributions among the following
investment options:
Vanguard Balanced Index Fund: Seeks to provide income and long-term growth
of capital and income by dividing its assets between indexed portfolios of
stocks (60%) and bonds (40%).
Vanguard Total Bond Market Index Fund (formerly the Vanguard Bond Index
Fund - Total Bond Market Portfolio): Seeks to provide a high level of
interest income by attempting to match the performance of the unmanaged
Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, a widely recognized measure of the
entire taxable U.S. bond market.
Vanguard Explorer Fund: Seeks to provide long-term growth of capital by
investing in a diversified group of small-company stocks with prospects for
above-average growth.
Vanguard 500 Index Fund (formerly the Vanguard Index Trust - 500
Portfolio): Seeks to provide long-term growth of capital and income from
dividends by holding all of the 500 stocks that make up the unmanaged
Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index, a widely recognized
benchmark of U.S. stock market performance.
Vanguard International Growth Fund (formerly the Vanguard International
Growth Portfolio): Seeks to provide long-term growth of capital by
investing in stocks of high-quality, seasoned companies based outside the
United States. Stocks are selected from more than 15 countries.
Crown Cork & Seal Stock Fund: Invests in Crown Cork & Seal stock to provide
the possibility of long-term growth through increases in the value of the
stock and the reinvestment of its dividends.
Crown Cork & Seal Fixed Income Fund: Seeks to preserve the value of the
original investment and provide an attractive level of interest by
investing primarily in investment contracts issued by insurance companies
and banks and other types of fixed principal investments. It is designed to
maintain a constant $1.00 share value.
STI Classic Prime Quality Money Market Fund: Invests in high quality
short-term debt securities. These include CDs, bankers' acceptances,
commercial paper, U.S. treasury securities and some municipal securities
and repurchase agreements. It is designed to maintain a constant $1.00
share value.

2. Summary of Accounting Policies
The following accounting policies, which conform with generally accepted
accounting principles, have been used consistently in the preparation of
the Plan's financial statements:
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method
of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of additions and deductions
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Shares of registered
investment companies are valued at quoted market prices which represent the
net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end. The Company stock
fund is valued at its year-end unit closing price (comprised of year-end
market price plus uninvested cash position). Units of the Company's Fixed
Income Fund are valued at net asset value at year end. Participant loans
are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.
Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date basis.
Interest income is accrued when earned. Dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Capital gain distributions are included in dividend
income.
Payment of Benefits
Benefits are recorded when paid.
3. Related Party Transactions
The Plan invests in shares of registered investment companies managed by an
affiliate of Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company ("VFTC"). VFTC acts as
trustee for those investments defined by the Plan. Transactions in such
investments qualify as party-in-interest transactions which are exempt from
the prohibited transaction rules.
4. Crown Cork & Seal Fixed Income Fund
The Crown Cork & Seal Fixed Income fund consists of guaranteed investment
contracts ("GICs") and the Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust. The GICs are
valued at contract value, which approximates fair value. The GICs are fully
benefit responsive. Interest rates on GICs ranged between 4.94 percent and
7.32 percent at December 31, 1998 and 5.00 percent and 6.96 percent at
December 31, 1997. Average yields on GICs were 5.71 percent in 1998 and
6.07 percent in 1997. The Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust is a tax-exempt
collective fund invested primarily in investment contracts issued by
insurance companies and commercial banks, and similar types of
fixed-principal investments. The trust intends to maintain a constant net
asset value of $1.00 per share. As the GICs mature the proceeds are
invested in the Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust.

5. Plan Expenses
The Company generally pays for the Plan's administrative expenses except
for brokerage commissions and related expenses which are paid directly from
the Plan's earnings.
6. Tax Status
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
letter dated February 22, 1996 that the Plan and related trust are designed
in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).
Accordingly, the Plan is not subject to federal or local income taxes. The
Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However,
the Plan administrator and the Plan's tax counsel believe that the Plan is
designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the IRC.
7. Subsequent Event
The Plan was merged with and into the Crown Cork & Seal Company, Inc.
401(k) Retirement Savings Plan, effective March 31, 1999. The transferred
assets totaled $21,704,866.
