                                        PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

GENERAL

               Union Camp Corporation is a Virginia corporation resulting from a
merger  in 1956 of  Union  Bag and  Paper  Corporation  and  Camp  Manufacturing
Company,  Incorporated.  Predecessor  businesses  were started in 1861 and 1887,
respectively.  As used in this Report,  the terms "Union Camp" and the "Company"
mean Union Camp  Corporation and its subsidiaries  unless the context  otherwise
requires.

               Union Camp's principal  business segments are the manufacture and
sale of paper and  paperboard,  packaging  products  and wood  products  and the
production and sale of chemicals, including flavors and fragrances.  Information
about developments  during 1996 relating to Union Camp's business appears in the
following  portions of the Union Camp 1996 Annual Report and is  incorporated by
reference  in this Item 1: the text under the  captions  "Fine Paper" on page 18
(other than the pie chart and caption  describing  the photograph on that page);
"Packaging"  on page 19 (other  than the pie chart and  caption  describing  the
photograph on that page);  "Chemicals"  on page 20 (other than the pie chart and
caption  describing the photograph on that page); and "Forest Resources" on page
21(other than the pie chart and caption describing the photograph on that page).
Information about the Company's research and development costs appears under the
caption  "Research  and  Development  Costs" in Note 1 of Notes to  Consolidated
Financial  Statements  on page 34 of the Union  Camp 1996  Annual  Report and is
incorporated by reference in this Item 1.

               Revenue,  operating  profits  and  other  financial  data for the
principal business segments and for the foreign and domestic  operations and the
dollar  amounts of export  sales of Union Camp for the years ended  December 31,
1996,  1995  and 1994  appear  in Note 17 of  Notes  to  Consolidated  Financial
Statements  on pages 41 and 42 of the Union  Camp  1996  Annual  Report  and are
incorporated by reference in this Item 1. The international  operations of Union
Camp and its  subsidiaries  are subject to the risks of doing  business  abroad,
including currency  fluctuations,  foreign government  regulation and changes in
political environments.

                                       1






               During 1996, Union Camp's consolidated sales and operating profit
were generated primarily by domestic operations.

PAPER AND PAPERBOARD

               Union  Camp's Fine Paper  Division  produces  bleached  paper and
paperboard  and its kraft  Paper and Board  Division  produces  kraft  paper and
paperboard. Those products are its largest contributors to profits. Union Camp's
total  production  of  bleached  and  kraft  paper  and  paperboard  in 1996 was
approximately 3,436,000 tons, of which about 57% was kraft and 43% was bleached.

               The Company operates four large paper mills at Savannah, Georgia,
Prattville,  Alabama, Franklin,  Virginia and Eastover, South Carolina. They are
fully  integrated in that all pulp required to support  paper  manufacturing  is
produced at the mill sites.  Combined  operating  capacity  is  estimated  to be
approximately 3.7 million tons in 1997.

               The Savannah,  Georgia mill produces kraft  linerboard and paper,
including  saturating  kraft,  a specialized  paper which is used by others as a
backing  material for decorative and industrial  laminates.  Kraft paper is used
primarily in the  manufacture  of multiwall  bags and kraft  linerboard  is used
primarily in the  manufacture of corrugated  shipping  containers  (see the next
section entitled "Packaging  Products").  There are six machines at the Savannah
mill.

               The two paper  machines at the  Prattville,  Alabama mill produce
kraft linerboard.

               In 1996, the Company  converted about 62% of its kraft linerboard
and paper  production  into packaging  products and sold  essentially all of the
rest to others for conversion into similar products.



                                       2







               The Franklin, Virginia mill produces uncoated free sheet which is
sold in roll and sheet form. These sales are to converters who use uncoated free
sheet primarily to make envelopes and forms, to merchant  distributors and major
end users who use it in business and printing papers and to retail distributors.
The mill also produces coated and uncoated  bleached bristols which are sold for
a variety of end uses, such as publishing,  greeting cards, book covers and file
folders.  There are four paper machines and two board machines at this mill. The
Franklin mill includes a recycled (deinked) pulp facility.  The deinked facility
removes  ink  from  office  waste  paper  and  produces  recycled  pulp  for the
manufacture of recycled content white paper and board. Recycled content paper is
sold as Union Camp branded products such as Collage('tm') and Great White('tm').
Deinked pulp not used for recycled products is sold to others.

               The Eastover,  South  Carolina mill produces  uncoated free sheet
which, like the Franklin  product,  is sold to others in roll and sheet form for
the same end uses. The two-machine  Eastover mill has an excess of pulp capacity
which is used together  with an on-site pulp dryer to produce  bleached pulp for
sale to others in domestic and international markets.

               In  1996,  Union  Camp  sold  about  30% of its  fine  paper  and
paperboard production in converted or sheet form. This includes approximately 1%
converted by its own plants into folding cartons and bags.

               The four  integrated  mills use sulfate pulping  chemistry,  also
referred to as the kraft process.  Both hardwood and pine timber are used at all
four mills.  Approximately  27% of the Company's wood pulp  production  utilizes
timber  harvested  from lands owned or controlled by the Company.  Timber use at
the Prattville,  Savannah and Franklin mills is supplemented with recycled waste
paper  acquired  from others and the Company's  converting  plants (see the next
section entitled "Packaging Products").



                                       3







PACKAGING PRODUCTS

               From its mill  production  of paper and  paperboard,  Union  Camp
makes bags and sacks and corrugated and solid fibre containers.

               Union Camp  produces  multiwall and consumer bags used to package
cement,  feed,  fertilizer,  clay, pet food,  chemical and mineral  products and
specialty  bags used in packaging pet food,  charcoal,  produce,  sugar,  flour,
seed, coffee,  cookies,  microwaveable  popcorn and other  miscellaneous  items.
Union Camp also produces linear low density plastic products  including film for
consumer applications and for industrial applications,  such as plastic shipping
sacks to package salt, bark, soil,  insulation,  resins and chemicals.  In March
1997 the Company acquired seventy-five percent of the capital stock of Puntapel,
S.A., a manufacturer of multiwall bags used primarily to package  cement,  flour
and sugar. Puntapel's plant is located in San Luis, Argentina.

               Union Camp produces corrugated and solid fibre containers used to
ship and store  canned,  bottled and  packaged  products  for a wide  variety of
customers,  including  food  processors  and  textile,  furniture,  chemical and
automotive  manufacturers.  In April 1996 a new  corrugated  container  plant in
Hanford,  California  began producing heavy duty corrugated  products  including
laminated  bulk  packaging  and  triplewall  to serve  the  general  industrial,
agricultural,  petrochemical  and material  handling  markets.  In January 1996,
Union  Camp's  Container  Division  acquired  the  operating  assets of  O'Grady
Containers,  Inc., a Fort Worth,  Texas based  manufacturer of corrugated boxes,
multicolor direct print graphics packaging and point of purchase displays.

               The Company's Folding Carton Division operates three plants which
produce cartons with high quality gravure and lithographic  printing,  which are
used  principally  by the  cosmetics  and  pharmaceutical  industries  for shelf
packaging in retail stores.

               The  International  Packaging  Division  manufactures  corrugated
containers at  wholly-owned,  consolidated  subsidiaries  in Chile,  Spain,  the
Republic of Ireland and Puerto Rico.  Union Camp holds a 30% interest in Zucamor
S.A.,  Argentina's leading independent  corrugated  container company, 


                                       4






which it  purchased  during  1994.  In March 1996,  the Company  entered a joint
venture in Turkey  with KAV Orman  Sanayii  A.S.,  a  subsidiary  of KOC Holding
Company,  one  of  the  world's  largest  industrial  companies,  to  operate  a
corrugated  container  plant  serving  agricultural  and  industrial  markets in
Turkey.  Through  a  joint  venture,  a  corrugated  container  plant  is  under
construction in Guangzhou, Peoples Republic of China.

WOOD PRODUCTS

               Union  Camp   produces   southern   pine   lumber,   plywood  and
particleboard.  Its wood products mills have the capacity to produce 500,000,000
board feet of  lumber,  234,000,000  square  feet  (3/8"  basis) of plywood  and
117,000,000  square feet (3/4" basis) of  particleboard  annually.  Union Camp's
wood products  mills  produced at 95% of capacity in 1996. Its wood products are
used in home construction and industrial markets such as furniture, cabinets and
fixtures.  The wood products mills also produce  significant  quantities of wood
chips for use in Union Camp's papermaking operations.

               The Company will commence construction of a new facility adjacent
to its existing  veneer plant in Thorsby,  Alabama which will produce  laminated
veneered  lumber and wood  I-joists for  engineered  wood product  markets.  The
facility is scheduled to be completed in 1998.

CHEMICAL GROUP

               The Chemical  Group  consists of two  operating  units:  Chemical
Products Division and Bush Boake Allen Inc.

               The Chemical  Products  Division produces a variety of wood-based
and non-wood-based  chemicals.  Wood-based  chemicals,  which are by-products of
pulp mill operations,  include tall oil and turpentine chemicals.  Tall oil is a
mixture of rosin and fatty acids which are  by-products of the pulping  process.
Tall oil rosins  are  converted  into  rosin-based  resins  and fatty  acids are
converted  into dimer acids and  polyamide  resins.  These  products are used in
coatings,  adhesives,  printing  inks,  paper  sizing  and oil field  chemicals.
Non-wood-based  chemicals,  which are complementary to Union Camp's pulp-derived
tall oil fatty acids,  are produced by converting  vegetable oils into a variety
of esters and other derivatives.  These are sold primarily for use in cosmetics,
lubricants, plastics,



                                       5






surfactants  and rubber.  The Chemical  Products  Division  has five  processing
facilities,  three of which  are in the  United  States  and two of which are in
England.

               In June 1994,  Bush Boake Allen Inc.  completed an initial public
offering of 32% of its outstanding common stock. Union Camp continues to own the
remaining 68% of the stock.

               Bush  Boake  Allen  Inc.  is a  producer  of  flavors  (including
essential  oils,  seasonings  and  spice  extracts)  and  fragrances  and  aroma
chemicals. The flavor products impart a desired taste and smell to a broad range
of consumer products,  including soft drinks, confections,  dietary foods, snack
foods, dairy products,  pharmaceuticals and alcoholic  beverages.  The fragrance
products are used in a wide variety of items, including fine fragrances,  soaps,
detergents,  air fresheners,  cosmetics and toiletries and related products. The
flavor and fragrance  compounds  are sold  primarily to major  consumer  product
companies  which use these  products  in  conjunction  with  other  natural  and
synthetic  ingredients to make their  products more appealing to consumers.  The
majority of the aroma  chemicals  produced by Bush Boake Allen are used by major
multinational  consumer  product  manufacturers  and other  fragrance and flavor
compounders  as fragrance raw materials.  The remainder is sold to  agrichemical
and specialty  chemical  manufacturers or internally used by Bush Boake Allen in
its  production  of  fragrance  compounds.  Bush  Boake  Allen has  developed  a
broad-based  global  presence with operations in 41 countries in North and South
America, Europe, Asia, Australia, The Middle East and Africa.

PAPER DISTRIBUTION

               In August 1996 Union Camp acquired The Alling & Cory  Company,  a
distributor of business communications and printing papers, industrial packaging
and business  products with its  headquarters in Rochester,  New York.  Alling &
Cory operates 15 distribution centers and 21 retail paper shops in Maryland, New
Jersey, New York, Ohio,  Pennsylvania and West Virginia.  Alling & Cory's wholly
owned  subsidiary,  the  Alcor  Envelope  Company,  Inc.  operates  an  envelope
converting  facility in Hamburg,  New York. Alling & Cory employs  approximately
1,200 people.



                                       6









LAND DEVELOPMENT AND HOUSING

               Union Camp's real estate subsidiary,  The Branigar  Organization,
Inc., is engaged in the sale and development of land in Georgia,  South Carolina
and North Carolina for  residential,  recreational  and commercial use.  Another
subsidiary,  Transtates  Properties  Incorporated,  sells and develops sites for
commercial properties at highway interchanges in Georgia and South Carolina.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

               Information  about Union Camp's 1996 and  estimated  1997 capital
expenditures appears on page 28 of the Union Camp 1996 Annual Report in the text
under the caption  "Capital  Expenditures"  and is  incorporated by reference in
this Item 1.

MARKETING

               Most of Union Camp's sales,  other than its chemical  sales,  are
made in the  United  States  east of the Rocky  Mountains  through a variety  of
distribution methods.  Paper and paperboard are sold both directly to converters
and through merchants.  Packaging  materials are sold directly to the industrial
and agricultural trades primarily by Union Camp sales  representatives and, to a
lesser extent,  through  distributors.  Wood products are sold through  building
supply dealers and directly to industrial users.

               Union Camp  chemicals  are sold  worldwide  with most sales being
made  to  customers  in  the  United  States  and  European  Economic  Community
countries.  Through various overseas  subsidiaries and related companies of Bush
Boake  Allen,  Union  Camp  sells  in the  worldwide  markets  for  flavors  and
fragrances and related products.  Chemical products  generally are sold directly
to industrial  users and to a lesser  extent  through  agents and  distributors.
During 1996,  Union Camp's chemical exports from the United States were about 7%
of the total  chemical  sales of Union Camp and its  subsidiaries.  In addition,
approximately  54% of such total chemical sales  originated  from the production
facilities of subsidiaries located outside the United States.

                                       7






               In 1996, Union Camp sold in the export market  approximately  18%
of its production of paper and paperboard.

COMPETITION

               All of  Union  Camp's  products  are sold in  highly  competitive
markets in which there are many large and well-established  companies,  of which
Union  Camp is one.  Competition  in each of Union  Camp's  markets  is based on
price, quality of product, service and product innovation.

TIMBER RESOURCES

               The basic raw  material for Union  Camp's  business is timber,  a
renewable  resource.  Union  Camp  controls  approximately  1,589,000  acres  of
timberlands in Georgia,  Alabama,  Virginia,  Florida,  North Carolina and South
Carolina,  of which  approximately  1,550,000 acres are owned by the Company and
the  balance is held  under  long-term  leases.  In 1996,  Union  Camp  obtained
approximately 30% of its total timber  requirements from its own timberlands and
purchased the balance from others.

               During the  second  half of 1996 the  Company  shut down its wood
harvesting  operations  in southeast  Georgia  which had supplied the  Savannah,
Georgia  mill.  Four  woodyards  and three  maintenance  garages in Georgia were
closed and the  equipment  used in these wood  harvesting  operations  was sold.
Independent  harvesting  contractors,  who prior to the closure of the Company's
operation had supplied most of the Savannah mill's raw material requirements for
virgin fiber, now supply 100% of those needs.

               Union Camp operates its  timberlands on a sustained  yield basis.
Union Camp began  reforestation on its timberlands in the mid-1950's and now has
approximately  964,000 acres in plantation growth. It planted about 42,000 acres
under the plantation program in 1996 and expects to plant  approximately  50,000
acres in 1997. These plantation programs result in increased yield per acre. The
current growing cycle for most of Union Camp's  plantations  averages between 20
and 25 years.  Union Camp anticipates that for the foreseeable future there will
be an adequate  supply of timber for its operations from its own lands and other
sources.

                                       8






ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION ACTIVITIES

               Union   Camp  is   committed   to   complying   with   applicable
environmental  protection control laws.  Wastewater  treatment facilities and/or
atmospheric  emission control  equipment at various Union Camp locations,  which
currently comply with applicable restrictions, may have to be upgraded to comply
with new  limitations.  Such new limits may be imposed  when  federal  and state
permits are renewed or as regulations are promulgated  implementing revisions to
federal and state air and water pollution control laws.

               Union Camp invested  approximately  $33 million in  environmental
control  facilities  in 1996 and  approximately  $122 million over the past five
years.  Over the next two years,  it is  estimated  that  environmental  control
expenditures  will  average  approximately  11% of projected  capital  spending.
Environmental control expenditures divert capital and may increase operating and
financing costs. To that extent, they have an adverse impact on earnings.

               During  the  next  several  years,  the cost of  compliance  with
environmental  control laws will depend upon the application of existing and new
regulations  and on revisions to existing  statutes.  Union Camp  believes  such
costs will not adversely  affect its  competitive  position within the paper and
chemical  industries  since most paper and chemical  companies have similar air,
water and solid waste disposal concerns.

               In August  1992,  Union Camp  entered  into a Consent  Order with
Region V of the U.S.  Environmental  Protection Agency (the "EPA") to conduct an
investigation  to ascertain  existing  conditions at the Company's  Dover,  Ohio
facility   under  the  Resource   Conservation   and  Recovery   Act.  The  site
investigation and risk assessment  report was initially  submitted to the EPA in
December 1994. After responding to comments by the EPA, the Company  submitted a
final  risk  assessment  and site  investigation  report in late 1996 which were
approved with  modifications  by the EPA. All outstanding  issues  regarding the
need for further  investigation  and  ascertaining  risk to human health and the
environment have been satisfactorily  resolved.  On the basis of the information
presently  available to it, Union Camp believes that remedial action required as
a result of the  investigation  will not result in a material  adverse effect on
its financial condition.



                                       9






EMPLOYEES

               Union  Camp  and its  subsidiaries  employ  approximately  19,000
people,  approximately 40% of whom are represented by a total of 66 unions under
collective bargaining agreements. Contracts involving approximately 2,200 hourly
employees were concluded during 1996 and contracts  involving  approximately 900
hourly employees remain in negotiation.  Contracts involving approximately 1,700
hourly  employees are subject to  renegotiation  and renewal in 1997. Union Camp
believes  that its  relationship  with its employees is favorable and it has not
experienced a strike at any major facility since 1974.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

               Union Camp's mills and plants,  domestic and foreign,  are at the
locations listed below and primarily  produce the items described in the heading
for each group. Union Camp's corporate  headquarters is in Wayne, New Jersey and
its principal research facilities are located at its corporate technology center
in Princeton,  New Jersey. The Company's  converting  operations,  the Container
Division,  the  Flexible  Packaging  Division  and the  International  Packaging
Division,  opened a Customer  Resource  Center in  Spartanburg,  South  Carolina
during 1996 which has technical  facilities to develop and test packaging ideas,
training  facilities  to educate  employees and  customers  about  packaging and
graphics  facilities  where designers work with customers to produce  packaging.
Except for a few facilities which in the aggregate are not material,  Union Camp
owns all of the following  mills and plants,  in some cases subject to financing
leases or similar arrangements.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

               In addition to the proceedings  described below, the Company is a
party to other legal  proceedings  incidental to its business  which the Company
does not believe are material to it.

               Union Camp has been designated a potentially responsible party at
a number of hazardous  waste sites pursuant to the  Comprehensive  Environmental
Response,  Compensation  and Liability Act ("CERCLA") and similar state laws. At
the  present  time  the  Company  is  actively   involved  with  proceedings  at
approximately  14  sites  including  the  three  sites  described  in the  three
paragraphs  immediately  below. The Company is unable to estimate  environmental
costs and  liabilities  for  several  reasons.  In some  cases,  it has not been
established that the Company is a potentially responsible party. In other cases,
it is uncertain whether the Company will seek, be offered or accept a settlement
with payment of a premium over otherwise  estimated liability in order to secure
full release. In many instances,  the cost of remediation is speculative because
remedial  investigations  and  feasibility  studies have not yet been contracted
for,  have not been  completed  or,  alternatively,  have been  completed but an
acceptable remedy has not been chosen.  Some settled cases also have "reopeners"
for contamination  discovered after full implementation of the remedy.  Finally,
insurance reimbursement is usually uncertain until matters are finally resolved.

               In May 1996 the EPA filed a civil suit  against  the  Company and
several other potentially responsible parties in the U.S. District Court for the
District of  Louisiana  under  CERCLA for  recovery of past and future  response
costs  incurred  by the EPA at the Bayou  Bonfouca  Superfund  Site at  Slidell,
Louisiana  which  operated  as a wood  treatment  facility  from  1882 to  1972.
Subsequently,  the State of  Louisiana  filed a similar suit against the Company
seeking to recover the share of the response  costs for which it is  responsible
under CERCLA. EPA records indicate there have been expenditures over a number of
years of  approximately  $100  million  for  remediation  at the  site.  The EPA
estimates that future response costs will be approximately $30 million.  In 1956
a subsidiary  of Union Camp acquired the assets of American  Creosoting  Company
which  included  the stock of a  subsidiary  which had  owned and  operated  the
Slidell  facility


                                       16






since 1933. The subsidiary sold the Slidell facility in 1958. The subsidiary was
sold in 1964. The EPA alleges that Union Camp has owner and/or  operator  status
under  CERCLA  arising  from its  ownership  of the  subsidiary  which owned the
Slidell  facility.  Union Camp denies it ever owned and/or  operated the Slidell
facility.  While it is not  possible  to  estimate  the likely  outcome of these
proceedings,  Union Camp  believes it has  meritorious  defenses  based upon the
facts and longstanding principles of corporate law and shareholders' liability.

        Union Camp is also a party to an action in the U.S.  District  Court for
the District of Connecticut in which private litigants are seeking  contribution
associated  with  past  and  future  costs  of  remediating  property  used  for
creosoting  operations  from  1921  through  1964.  Such  remediation  costs are
currently  estimated at  approximately  $6 million.  A subsidiary  of Union Camp
conducted  activities  at the  property  from 1956 to 1964.  Union Camp had been
dismissed on summary  judgment from the lawsuit in June 1995,  but on appeal the
summary  judgment order was vacated in March 1996 and the matter was remanded to
the District  Court to determine  whether  Union Camp could be held liable as an
operator  under federal and state  superfund  laws. It is Union Camp's  position
that the facts do not  support a claim that Union  Camp was an  operator  of the
site.

        In 1994 Union Camp was made a party to an action  brought in state court
in Forest County,  Mississippi by the Hattiesburg Public School District seeking
future remediation costs for property previously used in creosoting  operations.
In the second half of 1996 a suit was commenced in the U.S.  District  Court for
the Southern  District of Mississippi,  Hattiesburg  Division by car dealers who
lease the property from  Hattiesburg  Public School  District.  These plaintiffs
seek  damages for  diminution  in the value of the  property,  lost  profits and
potential  relocation expenses based upon the alleged pollution of the property.
No  remediation  of the  property  has begun or been  ordered.  Like the  matter
described  in the  second  preceding  paragraph,  this  case and the case in the
previous  paragraph  allege  that  Union  Camp  should  be  responsible  for the
activities  of its  subsidiary  at the  properties.  Union Camp  disputes  these
allegations  because Union Camp did not own or operate the facilities.  Although
Union Camp  believes it has a strong  legal  position  with respect to the above
described claims involving the creosoting  activities of its former  subsidiary,
an estimate



                                       17






of the likely outcome of these proceedings cannot be made at this time.

               In the  second  quarter of 1995 the  Company  was named as one of
approximately 60 defendants in a lawsuit filed in Jefferson County,  Texas state
court on behalf of  approximately  2,400  plaintiffs  who allege  that they were
exposed to asbestos  while  performing  work at various  plant sites in Alabama.
Subsequent  amendments  have brought the number of plaintiffs  to  approximately
5,100.  The defendants  named include  asbestos  manufacturers,  distributors of
asbestos-containing  products,  insurance  companies,  a manufacturer  of safety
equipment,   parties  who  allegedly  misrepresented  the  dangers  of  asbestos
exposure,  and the owners of the premises where the plaintiffs  allege they were
working  when they were  exposed  to  asbestos.  Union Camp is  included  in the
premises  owner  category  of  defendants  and the amount of  damages  sought is
unspecified.  Approximately  160 of the plaintiffs  allege  exposure to asbestos
while on Union Camp premises.

               In its  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June
30, 1991 the Company  reported  that a subsidiary  of the Company was added as a
defendant in approximately 7,000  asbestos-related  cases which had been pending
in Mississippi state court for several years. Subsequently,  this subsidiary was
named as a defendant in additional asbestos-related consolidated actions so that
the total number of such cases was in excess of 10,000. The subsidiary was named
in these cases  because it allegedly  was part of the chain of  distribution  of
asbestos-containing  products to facilities  where the  plaintiffs  worked.  The
period of alleged exposure ranges from 1930 through the present.  The subsidiary
did not  manufacture  asbestos or  asbestos-containing  products.  The number of
defendants  named  in these  suits  ranges  from  approximately  40 to 170,  and
includes asbestos  manufacturers,  distributors of asbestos containing products,
an insurance company and a manufacturer of safety equipment.  In March 1993, the
Company's  subsidiary reached agreement to settle  approximately 10,500 of these
cases, with the settlement being funded by the Company's insurance carrier.  The
Company's  subsidiary  recently reached agreement to settle  approximately 2,600
additional  cases  to  be  funded  by  the  Company's  insurance  carrier.  This
subsidiary is a defendant in approximately 7,500 remaining cases.

                                       18






               Although the final outcome of any legal  proceeding is subject to
many variables and cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty, the Company
presently  believes the pending legal proceedings  alleging liability on account
of exposure to  asbestos to which Union Camp or its  subsidiary  is a party will
not have a  material  adverse  effect on the  financial  position  or results of
operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

Our audits of the consolidated  financial  statements  referred to in our report
dated  February 7, 1997 appearing in the 1996 Annual Report to  Stockholders  of
Union Camp Corporation (which report and consolidated  financial  statements are
incorporated  by reference in this Annual  Report on Form 10-K) also included an
audit of the Financial  Statement  Schedule listed in Item 14(a)(2) of this Form
10-K. In our opinion,  the Financial  Statement Schedule presents fairly, in all
material  respects,  the  information set forth therein when read in conjunction
with the related consolidated financial statements.
