(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the
accrual basis and present the equity available to participants in the
Melamine Chemicals, Inc. Employee 401 (K) Thrift Plan (The Plan) and
changes in equity of the Plan.
The Plan is administered by the Thrift Committee (a Committee of
three individuals appointed by the Melamine Chemicals, Inc. Board of
Directors).
(b) Investment in Trust Fund Managed by the Trustee
Under the terms of a trust agreement between Melamine Chemicals,
Inc. (The Company), and Premier Bank, N.A. (trustee), the trustee
maintains a trust fund on behalf of the Plan. The trust fund is
segregated into five investment funds as follows: (1) a Government
Fixed Fund (Fund A), (2) an Equity Fund (Fund B), (3) a Company Stock
Fund (Fund C), (4) a Participant Loan Fund (Fund D) and (5) a
Certificate of Deposit Fund (Fund E). Contributions allocated to the
Government Fixed and Equity Funds were invested in a contract with
Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York (MONY) through December 31,
1993. On January 1, 1994 MONY sold its pension operations to AEGON
USA, Inc. who is administering the funds through Diversified
Investment Advisors. Contributions allocated to the Company Stock
Fund are invested in the common stock of the Company. The Loan Fund
is used to maintain notes receivable from participants resulting from
loans. Contributions allocated to the Certificate of Deposit Fund
are managed by the First National Bank of Atlanta. Participants in
the Plan are permitted to direct the investment of both employee and
company contributions to the Plan in any of the funds available to
the Plan, except Fund D. Prior to April 1, 1988, all employer and
employee contributions were invested in

Notes to Financial Statements
a contract with Mutual of New York Life Insurance Company in either
the Guaranteed Income or Equity Funds. Melamine Chemicals, Inc.
common stock and investment in the Government Fixed and Equity Funds
are carried at current value in the accompanying statement of net
assets available for plan benefits. Current value is determined by
the Trust Department of Premier Bank, which, for Melamine Chemicals,
Inc. common stock, is based upon the closing sales price at June 30,
1995.
The number of participants by fund at June 30, 1995, was as follows:
Number of
Fund Participants
---- ------------
A 54
B 15
C 17
D 42
E 16
Since, within certain limitations, investments may be made or held
simultaneously in more than one fund by an individual participant,
an individual may be included more than once in the above count.
The individual participants in the Plan at June 30, 1995, numbered
83.

(2) Contributions and Benefits
The Plan is a contributory savings plan sponsored by the Company.
Employees who have completed one year of service with the Company
are eligible to participate in the plan. Participants may elect to
make tax- deferred contributions to the Plan of up to 16% of
compensation. The total amount of tax-deferred contributions is
limited by federal tax legislation. Additionally, the Company
matches 100% of the participant's contribution up to, but not
exceeding, 4% of such participant's compensation. Participants pay
no federal income tax on their tax-deferred contributions, on the
employer contributions, or on any earnings on their accounts, until
withdrawals or distributions are made from their accounts.
Subject to the break-in-service provisions of the Plan, a
participant becomes fully vested in their account balance derived
from Company matching contributions upon the earliest of the
following occurrences:
- Completion of five years of service
- Attainment of normal retirement age or early retirement date
- Death
- Total disability, as defined in the Plan
Participants are at all times fully vested in their account balance
derived from their own contributions, including any earnings or
losses thereon.
Withdrawals of vested account balances by a participant prior to
retirement, death or disability are permitted if the participant
suffers financial hardship as defined by the Plan.

MELAMINE CHEMICALS, INC.
EMPLOYEE 401 (K) THRIFT PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
A participant may elect an immediate distribution of the vested
portions of employee and company contributions, plus income and
earnings thereon, as soon as practicable following termination of
employment. If an immediate distribution is not requested by the
participant upon termination, benefits shall be paid, or commence
upon such participant's normal or early retirement date, subject to
the death benefit provision which provides for a single lump sum
distribution upon a participant's death. Upon termination, other
than described above, the non-vested employer contributions and
earnings are forfeited by participants and such amounts reduce
employer contributions under the Plan.
A participant may borrow from the vested portions of their account
balance subject to several specific rules as defined by the Plan. No
loan from the Plan may be in excess of the lesser of i) $50,000
reduced by the participant's highest outstanding loan balance during
the preceding twelve-month period or ii) one half the participant's
vested interest in the Plan. No loan may be for less than $1,000.
The term of the loan shall not exceed 5 years unless the loan is to
be used to purchase the participant's principal residence, in which
case, the term of the loan may be 10 years. The annual loan
interest rate shall be determined by the Thrift Committee, but in no
instance should be more than the Premier Bank Certificate of Deposit
rate plus 2%. Participants borrow from their Government Fixed Fund
balances first and then their Equity, Certificate of Deposit and
Company Stock Fund balances. Only one loan may be outstanding at
one time. Loan repayments are automatically deducted from the
participant's paychecks and replenish the funds that current
contributions are being made to.
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
contribution and an allocation of (a) the employer's contribution
and (b) Plan earnings. Earnings are allocated based upon the
participant's investment of his account balance in each of the
funds. Forfeitures of terminated participants' non-vested accounts
are used to reduce future employer contributions. The benefit to
which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided
from the participant's account. The Plan document and subsequent
amendments more fully explain the details of the Plan and are made
available to Plan participants by the Plan administrator.

Internal Revenue Code.

(6) Contracts with Insurance Companies
As of July 1, 1985, the Company entered into a contract with Mutual
Life Insurance Company of New York (MONY). The contract provided
for two investment options; (1) Guaranteed Income Fund and (2)
Equity Fund. MONY guarantees that the interest will be credited to
the participants' accounts in the Guaranteed Income Fund at the rate
determined annually by MONY in accordance with the contract. On
February 19, 1992, the Guaranteed Income Fund was replaced with the
Government Fixed Fund. All previous deposits in the Guaranteed
Income Fund were transferred to the Government Fixed Fund.
Contributions allocated to the Equity Fund were invested in various
types of securities at the sole discretion of MONY, subject to
limitation by applicable state law. Participants' accounts are
expressed in terms of units which are valued based upon the fair
market value of the fund's assets at the valuation date. The dollar
value of a unit in the Equity Fund may increase or decrease and was
not guaranteed by MONY. On January 1, 1994 MONY'S pension operation
was sold to AEGON USA, Inc. and is now administered through
Diversified Investment Advisors (DIA).
(7) Plan Termination
The Board of Directors of the Company expects to continue the Plan
indefinitely; however, they reserve the right to amend, modify or
discontinue the plan at any time. In the event of Plan termination,
participants will become fully vested in their accounts.
(8) Investment Management Agreement
As of July 1, 1990, the company entered into an investment
management agreement with The First National Bank of Atlanta. The
agreement provides for an investment option in the Certificate of
Deposit Fund of the First Wachovia Diversified Funds for Retirement
Trusts. The fund is invested in large certificates of deposit
issued by federally insured banks, who have a Keefe Bruyette rating
of B or better. The fund is valued monthly. Unit value remains a
constant $100.
