BUSINESS THE COMPANY Allegheny Teledyne Incorporated is a Delaware corporation with its principal executive offices located at 1000 Six PPG Place, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15222-5479, telephone (412) 394-2800. Allegheny Teledyne was formed on August 15, 1996 by the combination of Allegheny Ludlum Corporation ("Allegheny Ludlum") and Teledyne, Inc. ("Teledyne"), which became wholly owned subsidiaries of Allegheny Teledyne. In the combination, Allegheny Ludlum shareholders received one share of Allegheny Teledyne common stock for each one of their Allegheny Ludlum common shares, and Teledyne stockholders received 1.925 shares of Allegheny Teledyne common stock for each of their Teledyne common shares. The combination was accounted for under the pooling of interests method of accounting. References to "Allegheny Teledyne," the "Company" or the "Registrant" mean Allegheny Teledyne Incorporated and its subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires. The Company is a group of technology-based manufacturing businesses with significant concentration in specialty metals, complemented by aerospace and electronics, industrial, and consumer products. The Company operates in four business segments - specialty metals, aerospace and electronics, industrial, and consumer - which accounted for 54.3%, 26.2%, 11.9%, and 7.6%, respectively, of the Company's total operating revenues of $3.8 billion for the year ended December 31, 1996. Additional financial information with respect to the Company's business segments, including their contributions to operating earnings and their identifiable assets, for the three years ended December 31, 1996 is presented under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Results of Operations" on pages 23 to 29 of the 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders (the "1996 Annual Report") and in Note 11 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page 35 of the 1996 Annual Report and is incorporated herein by reference. SPECIALTY METALS SEGMENT The products of this business segment are representative of the practical application of metallurgical science and technology as it is known and practiced throughout the world. Their unique characteristics are derived from the nature of the metals produced, the particular properties of the alloys melted, and the various processes, methods, forms, shapes and end products manufactured. Companies in the specialty metals segment include Allegheny Ludlum, Allvac, Rodney Metals, Wah Chang, Casting Service, and Portland Forge. These companies offer a number of products including: Specialty Steels, Super Alloys and Other Alloys. The term "specialty steel" refers to stainless steels, high speed and tool steels, high temperature alloys (super alloys), electronic and thermostatic alloys, and electrical steels. As compared with carbon steel, stainless steel alloys contain elements such as chromium, nickel, and molybdenum to make them corrosion- and heat-resistant; tool steel alloys, which contain more carbon than stainless steel, include tungsten, molybdenum, and other metals to make them both hard and malleable; and electrical steel contains silicon to minimize energy loss. Most high temperature alloys, electronic alloys and 3 4 thermostatic alloys are not steel by definition and are more properly referred to as specialty metals. Unlike high-volume carbon steel producers, specialty steelmakers produce smaller quantities with special equipment. Because of the need to meet more exacting technical and metallurgical requirements, stainless and other specialty steels are made with special processing techniques and generally utilize different alloying elements such as nickel, ferrochromium, molybdenum, niobium, titanium and cobalt. Specialty steel is produced in a variety of forms (sheet, strip, foil, plate, wire, ingot, billet, rod, bar, tubing, and shapes) and is selected for use in environments that demand materials having exceptional hardness, toughness, strength, resistance to heat, corrosion or abrasion or a combination of these characteristics. Common end uses of specialty steel include automobiles, appliances, communications and electronics equipment, marine equipment, electric power generating and distribution equipment, environmental equipment, home utensils and cutlery, construction products, tools and dies, food and chemical processing equipment, medical and health equipment, and aircraft and defense equipment. High-purity and high-performance superalloys, other alloys, and specialty steels are refined, partially finished, then sold to a wide variety of customers worldwide for many different applications in diverse industries, including aerospace, biomedical, marine, oil and gas, chemical processing, nuclear, and transportation industries. Allegheny Teledyne is able to produce a wide range of premium grade, nickel-based, cobalt-based, and titanium alloys that are designed to meet the high performance requirements of the aircraft, aerospace, gas turbine, nuclear energy, and chemical processing industries. These products, in various forms, are engineered to retain exceptional strength and corrosion resistance at temperatures through 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit and are used in critical, high-stress applications. Allegheny Teledyne high-speed steels provide the high temperature hardness required for lathe bits, drills, milling cutters, taps and dies, and other cutting tools. Related alloy steels, including a cobalt-free maraging grade, are produced for bearings, gears, special aerospace hardware, and high-strength applications. Thin-rolled metals are fabricated in a broad range of gauges, widths, and coatings to meet the specialized needs of a diverse international customer base. These customers then use the metal to fabricate a variety of different products ranging from automobile components to photographic, personal computer, and consumer products. A significant portion of these metals are distributed through a network of Company service centers, some located in foreign countries. Refractory and Reactive Metals. High-purity metals that exhibit unique properties (primarily zirconium, but including hafnium, vanadium, niobium, and titanium) are melted, refined, partially finished, then sold to domestic and foreign customers primarily in the nuclear energy, chemical processing, medical, and aerospace industries. Allegheny Teledyne is a leading U.S. producer of zirconium, a highly corrosion-resistant metal that is transparent to neutrons. It is used for fuel tubes and structural parts in nuclear power reactors and for corrosion-resistant chemical industry applications. Other users of 4 5 zirconium include the jewelry and personal hygiene industries. Hafnium, derived as a by-product of zirconium, is used for control rods in nuclear reactors due to its ability to absorb neutrons. Niobium, also known as columbium, is a high-technology metal produced by Allegheny Teledyne in various forms and alloys. It is used as an alloying element in the manufacture of many steels. The higher quality grades produced by Allegheny Teledyne are used in superalloys for jet engines and special alloys for aerospace applications such as rocket nozzles. When alloyed with titanium, niobium is used in applications requiring superconducting characteristics for high-strength magnets. This area includes medical devices for body-scanning, accelerators for high-energy physics, and fusion energy projects for future generation of electricity. Tantalum, one of the most corrosion-resistant metals, is produced by Allegheny Teledyne for medical implants, chemical process equipment, and aerospace engine components. Forgings and Castings. Allegheny Teledyne also processes metals by casting, forging, rolling, drawing, and extruding the metals into finished forms that are used in a diverse number of industries. With the latest screw-type forging presses, the Company is a major U.S. producer of carbon and alloy steel forgings in sizes ranging from one pound to more than 200 pounds. In addition to supplying the transportation, construction, and other basic industries, the Company has the ability to forge the more difficult alloys, which are used in aerospace, medical implants, and other critical applications. Allegheny Teledyne also casts a variety of metals into forms ranging from diesel locomotive engine blocks to lightweight aluminum and magnesium aircraft parts.

Metal, laminate, and plastic collapsible tubes are designed, manufactured and sold to domestic and foreign companies that sell pharmaceutical, dentifrice, cosmetic, food, household, and industrial products. COMPETITION Markets for most of the Company's products and services in each of its principal business segments are highly competitive. The Company competes with many manufacturers which, depending on the product involved, range from large diversified enterprises to smaller companies specializing in particular products. Factors that effect the Company's competitive posture are the quality of its products, services and delivery capabilities, its research and development efforts, its marketing strategies, and price. Through its specialty metals segment, the Company is a leading producer of specialty steel. Companies in this segment face active competition from domestic competitors and from foreign competitors, a number of which are government subsidized. Sales for Allegheny Ludlum and Rodney Metals, which consisted primarily of flat rolled products, declined 14% in 1996. The decline was caused by lower shipments coupled with significant pricing pressure in commodity stainless steel products. Allegheny Ludlum has announced price increases of 9 10 approximately 5% for its stainless steel sheet, strip and plate shipments effective March 3, 1997 and price increases of approximately 4% for all tool steel plates and bars cut from plate effective with shipments March 31, 1997. Allegheny Ludlum has also announced price increases of approximately 5% for its stainless steel sheet, strip, and plate shipments effective May 5, 1997. The ability to effect and maintain these price increases will depend in part on market pricing pressures, including pricing by foreign competitors. Companies in Allegheny Teledyne's aerospace and electronics segment obtain many U.S. Government contracts through the process of competitive bidding. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to be successful in having its bids accepted. RAW MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES Substantially all parts and materials required in the manufacture of the Company's products are available from more than one supplier and, in the Company's opinion, the sources and availability of raw materials essential to its businesses are adequate. The principal materials used by the Company in the production of its specialty steel are scrap (including nickel-, chromium-, and molybdenum-bearing scrap), nickel and nickel alloys, ferrochromium, ferrosilicon, molybdenum and molybdenum alloys, manganese and manganese alloys, and other alloying materials. Certain of these raw materials, such as ferrochromium and nickel, can be acquired by the Company and its specialty steel industry competitors, in large part, only from foreign sources. The Company purchases its nickel requirements principally from producers in Australia, Canada, Norway, the Commonwealth of Independent States, the Dominican Republic, and the U.S. Ferrochromium is purchased primarily from producers in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Turkey, and the Commonwealth of Independent States. Some of these foreign sources are located in countries that may be subject to unstable political and economic conditions, which might disrupt supplies or affect the price of these materials. More than 80% of the world's reserves of ferrochromium are located in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Albania, and Kazakhstan. The Company's specialty metals businesses also use large amounts of electricity and natural gas in the manufacture of their products. See "Forward Looking and Other Statements." GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS For the year ended December 31, 1996, approximately 18% of the Company's revenues were attributable to sales under contracts with the U.S. Government. Sales to the Department of Defense accounted for approximately 12% of total sales in 1996. Sales by the Company to the U.S. Government included sales by the specialty metals segment of $77.1 million in 1996, $44.3 million in 1995, and $50.5 million in 1994, the aerospace and electronics segment of $581.8 million in 1996, $518.0 million in 1995, and $485.0 million in 1994, and the industrial and consumer segments of $1.4 million in 1996, $2.8 million in 1995, and $3.5 million in 1994. Many of the Company's contracts with the U.S. Government include price redetermination clauses, and most are terminable at the convenience of the government. See the discussion of related matters herein under the caption "Forward Looking and Other Statements" and in Item 3. Legal Proceedings. Additional related information is presented under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of 10 11 Operations--Other Matters--Government Contracts" on page 28 of the 1996 Annual Report and in Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page 35 of the 1996 Annual Report. EXPORT SALES AND FOREIGN OPERATIONS Foreign sales represented approximately 17%, 15%, and 17% of the Company's total sales in 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. These figures include export sales by U.S. operations to customers in foreign countries, which accounted for approximately 12% in 1996 and 13% in 1995 and 1994 of the Company's total sales. See "Forward Looking and Other Statements." The Company's overseas sales, marketing and distribution efforts are aided by 12 international marketing offices in Europe, Asia, South America, and the Middle East. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994, the Company and its subsidiaries did not engage in material manufacturing operations in foreign countries. However, recent initiatives by the Company, including those discussed below, have expanded the Company's presence internationally. In February 1996 Allegheny Teledyne established a joint venture company in the People's Republic of China with Shanghai No. 10 Steel Limited Company for the production and sale of precision rolled stainless steel strip. The Company, which owns 60% of the joint venture company, will provide technology and engineering, technical, and management services. The joint venture will be known as Shanghai STAL Precision Stainless Steel Limited Company. The new plant will be located in Shanghai to produce and sell up to 15,000 metric tonnes of the Company's Precision Rolled Strip( products. Completion of the plant is anticipated in 1998. This venture should enable both Allegheny Ludlum and Rodney Metals to participate more effectively in the Asian market. In January 1995 the Company acquired the material handling business of Kooi B.V., a Netherlands company that is one of Europe's largest suppliers of portable material handlers. In December 1995 the Company completed the acquisitions of the Stellram Group, based in Europe, and Envases Comerciales, S.A. in Costa Rica. With facilities in Great Britain, Germany, France and Switzerland, the Stellram Group is a leader in highly engineered tooling for milling, boring, threading, and drilling, and is expected to enhance the position of Teledyne Advanced Materials in the global cutting tools market. Envases Comerciales, S.A. is a Costa Rican manufacturer of specialty packaging for pharmaceutical and food companies throughout Central America and Mexico. The acquisition of Envases Comerciales should open new markets for Teledyne Packaging's metal, laminate, and plastic collapsible tubes used for consumer products. BACKLOG, SEASONALITY AND CYCLICALITY The Company's backlog of confirmed orders was approximately $1.2 billion at December 31, 1996 and $1.2 billion at December 31, 1995. During the year ending December 31, 1997, it is anticipated that approximately 98% of confirmed orders on hand at December 31, 1996 will be filled. Backlog of confirmed orders of the specialty metals segment was $658.8 million at December 31, 1996 and $564.9 million at December 31, 1995. During the 11 12 year ending December 31, 1997, it is anticipated that approximately 99% of the confirmed orders on hand at December 31, 1996 for this segment will be filled. Backlog of confirmed orders of the aerospace and electronics segment was $439.2 million at December 31, 1996 and $493.5 million at December 31, 1995. During the year ending December 31, 1997, it is anticipated that approximately 96% of the confirmed orders on hand at December 31, 1996 for this segment will be filled. Generally, sales and operations of the Company's business segments are not seasonal. However, demand for products of the Company's specialty metals businesses is cyclical over longer periods because the industries in which customers in such businesses operate are cyclical and are subject to changes in general economic conditions. See "Forward Looking and Other Statements." RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND TECHNICAL SERVICES Management of the Company believes that the Company's research and development capabilities give it an edge in developing new products with profitable growth potential on a long-term basis, although these projects may not have immediate impact on profitability. Research and development is conducted by the Company at its various operating locations both for its own account and for customers on a contract basis. Estimates of the components of research and development, including bid and proposal costs, for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994 included the following: (In millions) 1996 1995 1994 ---- ---- ---- Customer-Sponsored: Specialty metals segment $ 3.8 $ 3.7 $ 5.2 Aerospace and electronics segment 295.4 204.2 166.7 Other 3.9 26.0 58.3 ------- ------- ------- 303.1 233.9 230.2 ------- ------- ------- Company-Sponsored: Specialty metals segment 16.8 20.4 17.1 Aerospace and electronics segment 35.4 30.0 31.0 Other 14.0 16.1 26.0 ------- ------- ------- 66.2 66.5 74.1 ------- ------- ------- Total Research and Development $ 369.3 $ 300.4 $ 304.3 ======= ======= ======= Ongoing research and development efforts in the aerospace and electronics segment include the following: Teledyne Ryan Aeronautical's development of the Global Hawk for the U.S. Department of Defense; Ryan's development of a new low-cost miniature air launched decoy UAV for the Department of Defense; and Teledyne Brown Engineering's work, in a joint venture, to determine the commercial feasibility of a new technology for safely destroying old chemical weapons without incineration. In addition, NASA has announced that Teledyne Continental Motors has been selected to lead an industry team developing a new piston-driven engine for small aircraft. 12 13 With respect to the specialty metals segment, the Company's research, development and technical service activities are closely interrelated and are directed toward cost reduction, process improvement, process control, quality assurance and control, system development, the development of new manufacturing methods, the improvement of existing manufacturing methods, the improvement of existing products, and the development of new products where a proprietary position is possible. The Company owns over 500 United States patents, many of which are also filed under the patent laws of other nations. Although these patents, as well as the Company's numerous trademarks, technical information license agreements, and other intellectual property, have been and are expected to be of value, in the opinion of the Company, the loss of any single such item or technically related group of such items would not materially affect the conduct of its business. ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY MATTERS The Company (and the industries in which it competes) is subject to environmental laws and regulations concerning emissions to the air, discharges to waterways, and the generation, handling, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste materials, and is also subject to other federal and state laws and regulations regarding health and safety matters. Each of the Company's production facilities has permits and licenses allowing and regulating air emissions and water discharges. The Company believes its businesses are being operated in compliance in all material respects with applicable environmental laws and regulations. The Company is currently involved in the investigation and remediation of a number of sites under the environmental laws, including approximately 60 sites at which the Company has been identified as a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, commonly known as Superfund, or similar state statutes. The Company's involvement is very limited or de minimis at approximately 50 of these sites, and the potential loss exposure with respect to any individual site is not considered to be material. During 1997, the Company expects to spend approximately $13.3 million for additional or upgraded environmental control equipment and facilities. The Company, like many manufacturers, would be required to expend significant additional funds to meet stringent air emission limits if the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's proposed revisions to the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Ozone and Particulate Matter are adopted. The proposed standards could increase the cost and the difficulty of obtaining operating permits for new operations or major modifications to existing operations. See the discussion of related matters herein under the caption "Forward Looking and Other Statements" and in Item 3. Legal Proceedings. Additional related information is presented under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Other Matters--Environmental" on page 28 of the 1996 Annual Report and in Notes 1 and 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page 35 of the 1996 Annual Report. 13 14 EMPLOYEES The Company and its subsidiaries employ approximately 24,000 persons, 10,000 of whom are employed at companies in the specialty metals segment. Approximately 26% of the Company's workforce is covered by various union contracts, certain of which are described below. Approximately 400 employees at Allegheny Ludlum's Washington Plant are covered by a labor contract with the United Steelworkers of America ("USWA") which is effective through September 30, 1999. Substantially all of Allegheny Ludlum's 3,600 other production and maintenance employees are covered by a four-year labor contract between the Company and the USWA, which is effective though July 1, 1998. In addition, approximately 600 Wah Chang employees are covered by a labor contract with the USWA which is effective through October 10, 2000.

FORWARD LOOKING AND OTHER STATEMENTS This Report on Form 10-K and the 1996 Annual Report contain various "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which represent the Company's expectations or beliefs concerning various future events, include the following: statements concerning anticipated effects of the combination of the businesses of Allegheny Ludlum and Teledyne on future earnings, cost savings and operations of the Company; announced price increases for stainless steel sheet, strip and plate and tool steel; net cash flow; aviation industry trends; certain expected capital expenditures; the outcome of any government inquiries, litigation or other proceedings related to government contracts or other matters; and future environmental costs. These statements are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including the following: Demand for Specialty Metals. Demand for products of the Company's specialty metals businesses, which accounted for a significant portion of the Company's 1996 total sales and its 1996 total income, is cyclical because the industries in which customers of such businesses operate are cyclical and are subject to changes in general economic conditions, including decreases in the rate of consumption or use of their products due to economic recessions or due to increases in use or decreases in price of other materials which may be used in lieu of the materials they produce, national and international overcapacity, fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar against other currencies, and levels of lower priced imports, which affect market demand for specialty materials. From time to time, these industries have experienced significant downturns. Significant downturns in the domestic economy are believed to have adversely affected the results of operations of each of Allegheny Ludlum and Teledyne from time to time during their respective histories. As a result, the Company's operating results could be subject to significant fluctuation. Raw Materials for Specialty Metals. Certain of the principal raw materials used to produce specialty metals can be acquired in large part only from foreign sources, some of which are located in countries that may be subject to unstable political and economic conditions which might disrupt supplies or affect the prices of these materials. Purchase prices of certain critical raw materials are volatile. As a result, the Company's operating results could be subject to significant fluctuation. The Company enters into raw material futures contracts from time to time to hedge its exposure to price fluctuations. The Company believes that adequate controls are in place to monitor these activities, which are not financially material. Environmental Matters. The Company is subject to various federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations. Environmental laws and regulations have changed rapidly in recent years, and it is likely that the Company will be subject to increasingly stringent environmental standards in the future. The Company believes that its businesses are being operated in compliance in all material respects with applicable environmental laws and 15 16 regulations. The Company is a party to lawsuits and other proceedings involving alleged violations of environmental laws. The Company records environmental liabilities when the Company's liability is probable and the costs are reasonably estimable. In many cases, however, investigations are not yet at a stage where the Company has been able to determine whether it is liable or, if liability is probable, to reasonably estimate the loss or range of loss, or certain components thereof. Estimates of the Company's liability are further subject to uncertainties regarding the nature and extent of site contamination, the range of remediation alternatives available, evolving remediation standards, imprecise engineering evaluations and estimates of appropriate cleanup technology, methodology and cost, the extent of corrective actions that may be required, and the number and financial condition of other potentially responsible parties, as well as the extent of their responsibility for the remediation. Accordingly, as investigation and remediation of these sites proceeds, it is likely that adjustments in the Company's accruals will be necessary to reflect new information. The amounts of any such adjustments could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations in a given period, but are not reasonably estimable. Based on currently available information, management does not believe that future environmental costs in excess of those accrued with respect to sites with which the Company has been identified are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or liquidity. However, there can be no assurance that additional future developments, administrative actions or liabilities relating to environmental matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Government Contracts. A number of the Company's subsidiaries perform work on contracts with the U.S. Government. Many of these contracts include price redetermination clauses, and most are terminable at the convenience of the government. Certain of these contracts are fixed-priced or fixed-price incentive development contracts which involve a risk that costs may exceed those expected when the contracts were negotiated. Absent modification of these contracts, any costs incurred in excess of the fixed or ceiling prices must be borne by the Company. In addition, virtually all defense programs are subject to curtailment or cancellation due to the year-to-year nature of the government appropriations and allocations process. A material reduction in U.S. Government appropriations may have an adverse effect on the Company's business, depending upon the specific programs affected by any such reduction. Since certain contracts extend over a long period of time, all revisions in cost and funding estimates during the progress of work have the effect of adjusting the current period earnings on a cumulative catch-up basis. When the current contract estimate indicates a loss, provision is made for the total anticipated loss. The Company obtains many U.S. Government contracts through the process of competitive bidding. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to be successful in having its bids accepted. Various claims (whether based on U.S. Government or Company audits and investigations or otherwise) have been or may be asserted against the Company related to its U.S. Government contract work, including claims based on business practices and cost classifications and actions under the False Claims Act. The False Claims Act permits a person to assert the rights of the U.S. Government by initiating a suit under seal against a contractor if such person purports to have information that the contractor falsely submitted a claim to the U.S. 16 17 Government for payment. If it chooses, the U.S. Government may intervene and assume control of the case. Although government contracting claims are generally resolved by detailed fact-finding and negotiation, on those occasions when they are not so resolved, civil or criminal legal or administrative proceedings may ensue. Depending on the circumstances and the outcome, such proceedings could result in fines, penalties, compensatory and treble damages or the cancellation or suspension of payments under one or more U.S. Government contracts. Under government regulations, a company, or one or more of its operating divisions or units, can also be suspended or debarred from government contracts based on the results of investigations. Given the extent of the Company's business with the U.S. Government, a suspension or debarment of the Company could have a material adverse effect on future operating results and the consolidated financial condition of the Company. However, although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe there is any audit, review or investigation currently pending against the Company of which management is aware that is likely to result in suspension or debarment of the Company, or that is otherwise likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or liquidity, although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for that period. Export Sales. It is anticipated that export sales will continue to account for a significant percentage of the Company's sales. Among the risks associated with export sales are export controls, changes in legal and regulatory requirements, policy changes affecting the markets for the Company's products, changes in tax laws and tariffs, exchange rate fluctuations (which may affect sales to foreign customers and the value of, and profits earned on, such sales when translated into U.S. dollars), political and economic instability, accounts receivable collection, and the seasonality of foreign sales. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. Uncertainties Relating to Synergies. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to realize, or do so within any particular time frame, the cost reductions, cash-flow increases or other synergies expected to result from the combination or generate additional revenue to offset any unanticipated inability to realize such expected synergies. Realization of the anticipated benefits of the combination could take longer than expected and implementation difficulties and market factors could alter the anticipated benefits. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Company's principal domestic facilities as of December 31, 1996 are listed below by segment. Of those facilities listed below which are owned, three are subject to mortgages or similar encumbrances securing borrowings under certain industrial development authority financings. See Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page 35 of the 1996 Annual Report. Although the facilities vary in terms of age and condition, management believes that these facilities have generally been well-maintained. 17 18 SQUARE FOOTAGE FACILITY LOCATION PRINCIPAL USE (OWNED/LEASED) - ----------------- ------------- -------------- SPECIALTY METALS Allegheny Ludlum Brackenridge Works Manufacturing of stainless steel and specialty 2,443,000 (owned) Brackenridge and Natrona, PA metals strip, sheet, and plate, silicon electrical steel strip and sheet, and other specialty steel strip and sheet.

Many of the Company's manufacturing facilities operated at or near their productive capacities during 1996. With respect to the specialty metals segment, Allegheny Ludlum's Brackenridge primary melting and continuous slab casting facilities have operated at high levels for the past five years. Allegheny Ludlum's stainless steel finishing plants have operated at approximately 85% to 95% of capacity for the past five years. The Company's plants that primarily produce silicon electrical steels have operated at approximately 50% to 90% of capacity since 1980 and are currently operating at a rate of approximately 70%. The Company's executive offices, located at PPG Place in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and its West Coast Regional offices, located at Century Park in Los Angeles, California, are leased from third parties. These facilities are modern and sufficient for the Company to carry on its activities. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company becomes involved from time to time in various lawsuits, claims and proceedings relating to the conduct of its business, including those pertaining to environmental, 20 21 government contracting, product liability, patent infringement, commercial, employment, employee benefits, and stockholder matters. As reported by Teledyne prior to the combination, in January 1996, Teledyne entered into a global settlement of several stockholder derivative suits against certain of Teledyne's directors, executive officers and employees and against Teledyne as a "nominal" defendant. These suits alleged, among other things, breaches of fiduciary duty and gross mismanagement in connection with the management and administration of certain Teledyne business units and with respect to foreign military sales efforts. In March 1996 an objecting stockholder in one of these cases appealed to the California Court of Appeal, challenging the global settlement. The Company will take action to uphold the validity of the settlement. In addition, prior to the combination, Teledyne reported that in March 1995 a putative class of its stockholders had filed suit against Teledyne and certain of its directors for breach of fiduciary duty based on the Teledyne board's rejection of an unsolicited acquisition proposal from WHX Corporation. Additional similar suits were consolidated with this suit in March 1996. If this action is pursued by the plaintiffs, the Company will seek its dismissal. In June 1995 the U.S. Department of Justice commenced an action against Allegheny Ludlum in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, alleging multiple violations of the federal Clean Water Act. The complaint seeks injunctive relief and assessment of penalties of up to $25,000 per day of violation. Also, in January 1997 the U.S. EPA filed suit in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania against Allegheny Ludlum alleging failure to comply with a unilateral administrative order ("UAO") issued in May 1996. The complaint asks for injunctive relief and assessment of penalties of up to $25,000 per day of violation. The UAO seeks physical control of a portion of Allegheny Ludlum's Natrona plant for at least 30 years for a treatment facility to be built by another company in conjunction with that company's remediation of a nearby Superfund site. The Company is challenging the UAO and has filed a declaratory judgment action to protect its rights. While the outcome of litigation, including the matters specified above, cannot be predicted with certainty, and some of these lawsuits, claims or proceedings may be determined adversely to the Company, management does not believe that the disposition of any such pending matters is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or liquidity, although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for that period.
