Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

     On March 6, 1998, Federal-Mogul Corporation (the
"Corporation") announced that all conditions relating to its
acquisition of the outstanding stock of T&N plc ("T&N") had either
been waived or satisfied, and the Corporation declared its offer to
purchase T&N to be wholly unconditional.

     The purchase price paid for the stock of T&N was 260 pence per
share, or approximately $2.5 billion in cash, which the Corporation
raised through a Senior Credit Facility and a Senior Subordinated
Credit Facility provided by The Chase Manhattan Bank, as
Administrative Agent.  The amount paid for the assets was
determined based on arms-length negotiations between the parties. 

     Prior to the acquisition described above, there was no
material relationship between the directors or officers of T&N and
the Corporation or any of its affiliates, any director or officer
of the Corporation or any associate of any such director or
officer.
