INVESTMENT AND SAVINGS PLAN. The Atlas Company Investment and Savings Plan
(the "Plan") benefits employees of the Company and its subsidiaries who have
completed six months of service. Each participant under the Plan must be at
least 21 years of age. Under the Plan, an employee may elect to contribute,
pursuant to a salary reduction election, not less than 1% and not more than
10% of the employee's annual compensation. The Company makes a matching
contribution of 100% of the amount contributed by the employee, but not more
than 6% of the employee's annual compensation. In addition, the Company may
make special contributions to the Plan, but these special contributions may
not exceed the maximum amount deductible under Section 404(a)(3)(A) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Employee contributions
may be invested in a number of investment options, but not Common Stock of the
Company. All matching and special contributions to the Plan are invested in
shares of Common Stock of the Company.
1978 RETIREMENT PLAN. Eligible employees, including officers, participate in
the Atlas Company 1978 Retirement Plan (the "1978 Retirement Plan"), a
noncontributory defined benefit pension Plan. Benefits under the 1978
Retirement Plan are based on years of service and the participant's
compensation during the participant's three consecutive highest compensated
years out of the participant's final five years as a participant. Benefits
under the 1978 Retirement Plan are payable upon disability, death or
retirement at age 55 or later and may be distributed in the form of a lump
sum, a single-life annuity, a joint and survivor annuity covering the
participant and a beneficiary or installments over a term of years.
Participants retiring before the age of 55 are entitled
to a lump sum distribution. Effective March 1, 1997, the Company froze all
future accrual of benefits under the 1978 Retirement Plan. The benefits earned
by each participant as of February 28, 1997 shall be preserved and no benefit
of any participant shall be decreased or reduced. At the Company's option the
freeze can be lifted at any time in the future.
The following table shows the estimated annual benefits payable upon
retirement in the form of a single-life annuity under the 1978 Retirement Plan
to persons in the specified compensation and years-of-service classifications:

Retirement benefits under the 1978 Retirement Plan are based on salaries and
additional compensation such as awards under the Annual Incentive Plan.
Directors' fees do not affect these benefits.
Benefits listed in the table are net of an offset for part of the
participant's Social Security benefits. There is no other offset. Years of
service credited through December 31, 1997 under the 1978 Retirement Plan for
the officers listed in the SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE is 14 years for Mr.
Blubaugh and 4 years for Mr. Shafter.
The Code sets limits on a participant's annual benefits on retirement under
the 1978 Retirement Plan. To assure that participants' retirement benefits are
not reduced in the future because of the Code limits, the Board of Directors
adopted a supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, which provides retirement
benefits on an unfunded basis to selected participants whose benefits under
the 1978 Retirement Plan would be limited by the Code in an amount equal to
the difference between the annual retirement benefit permitted under the 1978
Retirement Plan by the Code and the amount that would have been paid but for
the limitation imposed by the Code.
ANNUAL INCENTIVE PLAN. Under the Company's Annual Incentive Plan, incentive
compensation may be paid to key employees selected by the Compensation
Committee based on the achievement by the Company and the selected employees
of performance goals established for each fiscal year by the Compensation Committee. In
addition to target awards, which recognize achievement of the predetermined
goals, the Compensation Committee may establish threshold and maximum awards
to recognize performance, which has only been minimally acceptable, and
performance, which has been significantly above target. Target, threshold and
maximum awards are expressed as a percentage of selected employees' base
salary for the pertinent fiscal year. The Compensation Committee may consider
the adverse impact of external circumstances on the Company's performance in
evaluating the achievement of individual employee goals and in determining
whether to exercise its authority in such circumstances to make alternative or
supplemental awards. Since July 1, 1993, no awards were made under the Annual
Incentive Plan.
