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 audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards 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. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition of the Plan as of December 31, 1999, and the income and changes in plan equity for the year ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule of Investments is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is 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. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Description of the Plan The Salary Deferral Savings Plan of Engelhard Corporation (the Plan), as amended and restated as of April 6, 2000 is designed to provide eligible employees of Engelhard Corporation (the Company) an opportunity to save part of their income by having the Company reduce their compensation and contribute the amount of the reduction to the Plan on a tax deferred and/or post-tax basis. The following plan description is provided for general information purposes. Participants of the Plan should refer to the Plan Document for more detailed and complete information. Eligibility - ----------- Except as specifically included or excluded by the Board of Directors of the Company (the Board), United States salaried employees of the Company and its wholly-owned (directly or indirectly) domestic subsidiaries and all non- collectively bargained hourly employees are eligible to participate in the Plan. Contributions - ------------- The Plan permits eligible employees participating in the Plan the opportunity to defer up to 15 percent of their compensation, as defined, subject to certain restrictions and limitations, and to have that amount contributed to the Plan and the related taxes deferred. Employees may also contribute, subject to certain restrictions and limitations, up to 10 percent of compensation to the Plan on a post-tax basis. Matching Contributions - ---------------------- The Company will contribute, on a monthly basis, subject to certain limitations and exclusions, either cash or common stock of the Company in an amount equal to 50 percent of the first 6 percent contributed by the Participants. Participants must have completed one year of service to be eligible for a matching contribution. Investments - ----------- All contributions to the Plan are held and invested by Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (the Trustee). The Trustee maintains fifteen separate investment funds within the Plan: a) The Company Stock Fund consists of assets invested or held for investment in the common stock of the Company. In the event the assets cannot be immediately invested in Company common stock, the funds are invested in short-term securities pending investment in Company common stock. b) The Fixed Income Fund consists of assets invested in shares of the Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust. In the event the assets cannot be immediately invested in such shares or deposited as specified above, the assets are invested in direct obligations of the United States Government or agencies thereof or in obligations guaranteed as to the payment of principal and interest by the United States Government. 20 c) The Windsor II Fund consists of assets invested in the Vanguard Windsor II fund, which invests primarily in stocks which seeks long-term growth and income from dividends. d) The Windsor Growth Fund consists of assets invested in the Vanguard Windsor Fund, which invests primarily in common stocks for the purpose of realizing long-term growth of capital and income. e) The Balanced Fund consists of assets invested in the Vanguard Asset Allocation Fund, which invests in stocks, bonds and cash reserves for the purpose of maximizing long- term total return with less volatility than a portfolio of common stock. f) The Equity Index Fund consists of assets invested in the Vanguard Growth and Income Portfolio, which invests primarily in common stocks for the purpose of realizing a total return greater than the Standard & Poor's 500 Index while maintaining fundamental investment characteristics similar to such Index. g) The International Growth Fund consists of assets invested in shares of the Vanguard International Growth Portfolio or such other mutual fund or funds which invest primarily in common stocks of companies based outside the United States that have above-average growth potential for the purpose of realizing long-term capital growth. h) The Small Cap Fund consists of assets invested in shares of the Vanguard Index Trust - Small Cap Stock Portfolio or such other mutual fund or funds which invest primarily in common stocks of small-sized companies for the purpose of providing a comparatively low-cost method of passively capturing the investment returns of small-sized companies and attempting to provide investment results that parallel the performance of the unmanaged Russell 2000 Small Stock Index. i) The Short-Term Bond Fund consists of assets invested in shares of the Vanguard Fixed Income Fund or Short-Term Corporate Portfolio of the Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Fund or such other mutual fund or funds which invest primarily in relatively short maturity investment-grade bonds for the purpose of providing a level of current income consistent with a two to three year average maturity while helping to preserve capital. j) The Prime Cap Fund consists of assets invested in the Vanguard Prime Cap fund and seeks long-term growth of capital. k) The Life Strategy Growth Fund consists of assets invested in the Vanguard Life Strategy Growth Portfolio. This fund invests in other Vanguard mutual funds representing a combination of stocks, bonds and reserves in order to provide growth of capital. 21 l) The Life Strategy Income Fund consists of assets invested in the Vanguard Life Strategy Income Portfolio. This fund invests in other Vanguard mutual funds representing a combination of stocks, bonds and reserves in order to provide current income. m) The Life Strategy Conservative Growth Fund consists of assets invested in the Vanguard Life Strategy Conservative Growth portfolio. This fund invests in other Vanguard mutual funds representing a combination of stocks, bonds, and reserves in order to provide current income and a low to moderate growth of capital. n) The Vanguard U.S. Growth portfolio seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing in common stocks of companies with above-average growth potential for the purpose of seeking long-term capital growth. o) The Life Strategy Moderate Growth Fund consists of assets invested in the Vanguard Life Strategy Moderate Growth Fund. This fund invests in other Vanguard mutual funds representing a combination of stocks, bonds and reserves in order to provide growth of capital and a reasonable level of current income. Participants have the right to elect, subject to restrictions, the investment fund or funds in which their contributions are invested. All matching contributions are initially invested in the Company Stock Fund. The Participants matching contributions are intially restricted and become unrestricted at the rate of 25 percent per year. Once unrestricted funds may be moved to one of the other investment funds. The number of Participants in each fund was as follows at December 31: Participants 1999 1998 ------------ ----- ----- Company Stock Fund 2,620 2,598 Fixed Income Fund 1,031 1,070 Growth Fund (Windsor II) 480 398 Growth Fund (Windsor) 1,287 1,412 Balanced Fund 930 928 Equity Index Fund 1,230 1,137 International Growth Fund 485 507 Small Cap Fund 395 410 Short-Term Bond Fund 216 211 Prime Cap Fund 514 270 Life Strategy Growth Fund 342 295 Life Strategy Income Fund 67 52 Life Strategy Conservative Growth Fund 103 92 Vanguard U.S. Growth Fund 762 578 Life Strategy Moderate Growth Fund 249 208 The total number of Participants in the Plan was less than the sum of the number of Participants shown above because many were participating in more than one fund.

The only non-participant directed investment is the Engelhard Corp Stock Fund and is included in the accompanying Statement of Financial Condition. Included in the Engelhard Corporation Stock Fund is $6,739,752 at December 31, 1999 and $6,078,815 at December 31, 1998 of restricted Company matching contributions. Vesting - ------- Participants at all times have a fully vested and non-forfeitable interest in their contributions and in the matching contributions allocated to their account. Loan Provision - -------------- The Plan allows Participants who have participated in the Plan for at least one year to borrow funds from their accounts, subject to certain terms and conditions, at a reasonable interest rate as determined by the Company in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. 23 Termination - ----------- The Company, although it expects and intends to continue the Plan indefinitely, has reserved the right of the Board to terminate or amend the Plan. Distributions and Withdrawals - ----------------------------- All distributions and withdrawals from the Plan are made to Participants in a lump sum cash payment except those amounts distributed from the Company Stock Fund which may, at the Participant's election, be paid in full shares of the Company's common stock with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares. Note 2 - Accounting Policies The accounts of the Plan are maintained on an accrual basis. Purchases and sales of investments are reflected on a trade date basis. Assets of the Plan are valued at fair value. Gains and losses on distributions to Participants and sales of investments are based on average cost. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of stocks or mutual funds. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect Participants' account balances and the amounts reported in the Statement of Financial Condition and the Statement of Income and Changes in Plan Equity. Certain 1997 amounts have been reclassified to conform to 1998 classifications. Note 3 - Income Tax Status The Plan and the Trust created thereunder are intended to qualify under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) and the Plan includes a cash or deferred arrangement intended to meet the requirements of Section 401(k) of the Code. The Internal Revenue Service has issued a favorable determination letter as to the Plan's qualified status under the Code. Amounts contributed to and earned by the Plan are not taxed to the employee until a distribution from the Plan is made. In addition, the unrealized appreciation on any shares of common stock of the Company distributed to an employee is not taxed until the time of disposition of such shares. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan Administrator believes the Plan is designed and is currently operating in compliance with the Internal Revenue Code. Note 4 - Administrative Expenses All expenses of the Plan, with the exception of loan application and loan administration fees, are paid for by the Company. Investment advisory fees for portfolio management of the Vanguard funds are paid directly from fund earnings. 24 Advisory fees are included in the fund expense ratio and will not reduce the assets of the Plan. Brokerage commissions paid to purchase Engelhard Corporation common stock are being charged against each Participant's fund unit value. Note 5 - Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments which potentially subject the Plan to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of investment contracts with insurance and other financial institutions. The Plan places its investment contracts with high-credit quality institutions and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. Note 6 - Investments Investments in the common stock of the Company are valued at the readily-available, quoted market price as of the valuation date and investments in Vanguard Funds are valued based on the quoted net asset value (redemption value) of the respective investment fund as of the valuation date. The net realized gain (loss) on disposition of investments was computed as follows: Net realized gain (loss) Company Fixed Windsor II Windsor Equity Int'l Stock Income Growth Growth Balanced Index Growth Fund Fund Fund Fund Fund Fund Fund ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- Year ended December 31, 1999 -

Related Party Transactions For the 1999 plan year, the Company transferred 154,351 treasury stock shares (representing a contribution dollar amount of $2,968,262) to Vanguard to fund the employer match. The number of shares transferred each month represented the employer matching contribution divided by the closing market price on the day the contribution was remitted. Note 8 - Transfer from Mearl Corporation Employee's Profit Sharing Plan The Mearl Corporation Employee's Profit Sharing Plan was terminated on March 31, 1999. All Participants were given the option to a) receive a cash payment, b) transfer their balance to an Individual Retirement Account, or c) transfer their balance to one of the Engelhard Corporation 401K Plans. All amounts transferred under option "c" above are shown on the Statement of Income and Changes in the Plan Equity for the year ended December 31, 1999. Note 9 - Voluntary Compliance Resolution Program During 1999 the Company discovered possible compliance violations with certain administrative practices of the Plan. The Company has filed under a Voluntary Compliance Resolution Program (VCRP) with the Internal Revenue Service on behalf of the Plan. The Compliance issues involve failure to distribute required minimum distributions from the Plan with respect to certain Participants who have reached the age of 70 1/2. The issue effected approximately 10 Participants in the Plan. The VCRP is pending approval from the Internal Revenue Service. The Company has taken corrective actions to prevent any further occurrences of this issue. The Company and Plan Administrator do not believe the issues will have a material effect on the financial statements. 29 Salary Deferral Savings Plan of Engelhard Corporation Schedule of Investments at December 31, 1999 Approximate Cost Market Value ------------ -------------- Common Stock of Engelhard Corporation $41,566,930 $ 46,599,093 (2,499,584 shares) Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust 29,270,606 29,270,606 Vanguard Windsor II Fund 5,463,729 4,554,032 Vanguard Windsor Fund 26,307,156 25,595,624 Vanguard Asset Allocation Fund 12,687,277 15,147,280 Vanguard Growth and Income Portfolio 17,357,471 25,078,115 Vanguard International Growth Portfolio 3,370,315 4,347,535 Vanguard Index Trust 3,073,325 3,406,357 Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Fund 1,858,566 1,821,626 Vanguard Life Strategy Growth Portfolio 2,932,443 3,449,469 Vanguard Prime Cap Fund 8,121,143 9,685,868 Vanguard Life Strategy Income Portfolio 513,702 505,578 Vanguard Life Strategy Conservative Growth Portfolio 1,076,652 1,131,393 Vanguard U.S. Growth Fund 9,399,429 11,462,671 Vanguard Life Strategy Moderate Growth Portfolio 2,597,758 2,889,310 ------------ ------------ Total $165,596,502 $184,944,557 ============ ============ 30 Salary Deferral Savings Plan of Engelhard Corporation Schedule of Investments at December 31, 1998 Approximate Cost Market Value ------------ -------------- Common Stock of Engelhard Corporation $38,036,386 $ 45,391,121 (2,327,750 shares) Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust 27,603,965 27,603,965 Vanguard Windsor II Fund 5,003,101 4,907,253 Vanguard Windsor Fund 26,657,623 26,638,674 Vanguard Asset Allocation Fund 11,208,522 14,624,519 Vanguard Growth and Income Portfolio 13,930,929 18,577,286 Vanguard International Growth Portfolio 3,072,133 3,521,901 Vanguard Index Trust 2,880,870 2,894,830 Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Fund 2,040,505 2,047,021 Vanguard Life Strategy Growth Portfolio 1,859,943 2,060,528 Vanguard Prime Cap Fund 2,329,496 2,589,252 Vanguard Life Strategy Income Portfolio 476,323 483,341 Vanguard Life Strategy Conservative Growth Portfolio 850,159 891,549 Vanguard U.S. Growth Fund 5,449,498 6,325,365 Vanguard Life Strategy Moderate Growth Portfolio 1,486,815 1,649,482 ------------ ------------ Total $142,886,268 $160,206,087 ============ ============ 31 CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS ---------------------------------- As independent public accountants, we hereby consent to the incorporation of our report dated June 20, 2000 on the financial statements and financial statement schedule as of, and for the year ended December 31, 1999 of the Salary Deferral Savings Plan of the Engelhard Corporation into the Company's previously filed Registration Statements on Form S-8 File Nos.: 2-72830 2-81559 2-84477 2-89747 33-28540 33-37724 33-40365 33-40338 33-43934 33-65990 333-02643 333-71439 /s/ Arthur Andersen L.L.P.
