1. VOLUNTARY PETITION FOR RELIEF UNDER CHAPTER 11

On October 5, 2000 (the “Petition Date”), Owens Corning and the 17 United States subsidiaries listed below (collectively with Owens Corning, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief (the “Filing”) under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “USBC”):


		CDC Corporation		Integrex Testing Systems LLC
		Engineered Yarns America, Inc.		HOMExperts LLC
		Falcon Foam Corporation		Jefferson Holdings, Inc.
		Integrex		Owens-Corning Fiberglas Technology Inc.
		Fibreboard Corporation		Owens Corning HT, Inc.
		Exterior Systems, Inc.		Owens-Corning Overseas Holdings, Inc.
		Integrex Ventures LLC		Owens Corning Remodeling Systems, LLC
		Integrex Professional Services LLC		Soltech, Inc.
		Integrex Supply Chain Solutions LLC

The Debtors are currently operating their businesses as debtors-in-possession in accordance with provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The Chapter 11 cases of the Debtors (collectively, the “Chapter 11 Cases”) are being jointly administered under Case No. 00-3837 (JKF).

The referenced Chapter 11 cases do not include any other United States or foreign subsidiaries of Owens Corning (collectively, the “Non-Debtor Subsidiaries”). As described more fully below under the heading “The Plan of Reorganization”, Owens Corning may cause certain of such Non-Debtor Subsidiaries that issued guarantees with respect to Owens Corning’s pre-petition bank credit facility to file petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code under certain circumstances.

The Debtors filed for relief under Chapter 11 to address the growing demands on Owens Corning’s cash flow resulting from its multi-billion dollar asbestos liability. This liability is discussed in greater detail in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In late 2001, the asbestos-related Chapter 11 cases pending in the District of Delaware (the Chapter 11 Cases of Owens Corning and the cases of Armstrong World Industries, Inc., W.R. Grace & Co., Federal-Mogul Global, Inc., and USG Corporation) were ordered transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the “District Court”) before Judge Alfred M. Wolin to facilitate development and implementation of a coordinated plan for management (the “Administrative Consolidation”). The District Court has entered an order referring the Chapter 11 Cases back to the USBC, where they were previously pending, subject to its ongoing right to withdraw such referral with respect to any proceedings or issues (the applicable court from time to time responsible for any particular aspect of the Chapter 11 Cases being hereinafter referred to as the “Bankruptcy Court”). Owens Corning is unable to predict what impact the Administrative Consolidation will have on the timing, outcome or other aspects of the Chapter 11 Cases.

On January 17, 2003, the Debtors, together with the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants, filed a proposed joint plan of reorganization in the USBC. The same proponents filed a proposed amended joint plan of reorganization in the USBC on March 28, 2003, a proposed second amended joint plan of reorganization in the USBC on May 23, 2003, and a proposed third amended joint plan of reorganization (as so amended through such third amendment, the “Plan”) in the USBC on August 8, 2003. Certain terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan are discussed below. The Plan is subject to confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court.

1. VOLUNTARY PETITION FOR RELIEF UNDER CHAPTER 11 (continued)

Consequence of Filing

As a consequence of the Filing, all pending litigation against the Debtors is stayed automatically by section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and, absent further order of the Bankruptcy Court, no party may take any action to recover on pre-petition claims against the Debtors. In addition, pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors may reject or assume pre-petition executory contracts and unexpired leases, and other parties to contracts or leases that are rejected may assert rejection damages claims as permitted by the Bankruptcy Code.

Two creditors’ committees, one representing asbestos claimants and the other representing unsecured creditors, have been appointed as official committees in the Chapter 11 Cases. In addition, the Bankruptcy Court has appointed James J. McMonagle as Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos personal injury claimants against one or more of the Debtors. The two committees and the Legal Representative have the right to be heard on all matters that come before the Bankruptcy Court. Owens Corning expects that the two committees and the Legal Representative will play important roles in the Chapter 11 Cases and the negotiation of the terms of any plan or plans of reorganization. As noted above, the Debtors filed their Plan together with the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants.

Owens Corning anticipates that substantially all liabilities of the Debtors as of the date of the Filing will be resolved under one or more Chapter 11 plans of reorganization to be proposed and voted on in the Chapter 11 Cases in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. Although the Debtors intend to seek confirmation of the Plan, there can be no assurance that the Plan will not be further amended prior to confirmation, nor can there be any assurance that such Plan will be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court and consummated. Owens Corning is unable to predict what impact the Administrative Consolidation will have on the timing of the confirmation of a plan or plans of reorganization or its effect, if any, on the terms thereof.

On May 22, 2003, the United States Senate introduced proposed legislation (S 1125, also known as the Fairness in Asbestos Injury Resolution Act of 2003 (the “FAIR Act”)) that, if enacted into law, would establish an administrative claims resolution structure through which all asbestos personal injury claims would be channeled and reviewed. The FAIR Act would also establish a national trust fund, funded through mandated contributions from defendant companies, insurance companies and existing trusts, that would be the source of compensation of all approved claims. Under the present terms of the FAIR Act, companies like Owens Corning and Fibreboard, that have filed for bankruptcy but have not yet emerged through a confirmed plan of reorganization, would be included as participants in the resolution structure.

The fate of the FAIR Act remains uncertain, and Owens Corning is unable to make any prediction as to whether the FAIR Act will be enacted or, if it is enacted, what its final form would be or what the effect, if any, would be on Owens Corning and Fibreboard or their plan or plans of reorganization. The provisions of any legislation ultimately enacted may have a material effect on the amount of liability that Owens Corning and Fiberboard ultimately have for asbestos-related claims, which could be more or less than the amounts reserved for in Owens Corning’s financial statements.

1. VOLUNTARY PETITION FOR RELIEF UNDER CHAPTER 11 (continued)

The Plan of Reorganization

Owens Corning believes that it is likely that the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan will be the subject of continuing negotiations or litigation to resolve differences among the creditor constituencies as to their treatment. Accordingly, Owens Corning is unable to predict at this time what the treatment of creditors and equity holders of the respective Debtors will ultimately be under any plan or plans of reorganization finally confirmed. The current Plan provides for partial payment of all unsecured creditors’ claims, in the form of distributions of new common stock and notes of the reorganized company, and cash. Additional distributions from potential insurance and other third-party claims may also be paid to certain classes of unsecured creditors, but it is expected that all classes of pre-petition unsecured creditors will be impaired. Therefore, the Plan also provides that the existing common stock of Owens Corning will be cancelled, and that current shareholders will receive no distribution or other consideration in exchange for their shares. It is impossible to predict at this time the terms and provisions of any plan or plans of reorganization that may ultimately be confirmed, when a plan or plans of reorganization will be confirmed, or the treatment of creditors thereunder.

The Plan is premised upon the substantive consolidation of the Debtors (but not the Fibreboard Settlement Trust (see Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements)) for the purposes of voting, determining which claims and interests will be entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan, confirmation of the Plan, and the resultant discharge of and cancellation of claims and interests and distribution of assets, interests and other property under the Plan. For these purposes, the Plan would treat all assets and liabilities of each Debtor (excluding the Fibreboard Settlement Trust) as though they were merged into one consolidated estate with the assets and liabilities of the other Debtors. Substantive consolidation under the Plan will not result in the merger of or the transfer or commingling of any assets of any of the Debtors or Non-Debtor Subsidiaries. Certain creditor constituencies have asserted that substantive consolidation is not appropriate and are challenging that approach in the Plan confirmation hearings described below.

As part of the Plan, Owens Corning intends to effect an internal restructuring in order to adopt a holding company structure. This internal restructuring is expected to be refined further as steps are taken to implement it.

The percentage recovery and value of the payments made under the Plan to each class of creditors will depend upon a number of factors. Those factors include the value of the shares of new common stock and notes to be issued by the Company, the amount of cash available for distribution, the resolution of certain inter-creditor issues, and the ultimate aggregate asbestos liability.

The Plan provides that liability for current and future asbestos personal injury claims against Owens Corning and Fibreboard would be determined by the Bankruptcy Court as part of the confirmation hearing on the Plan. The Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants have reserved the right to withdraw support of the Plan if such liability is determined to be less than $16 billion in the aggregate. Hearings concerning confirmation of the Plan began on April 8, 2003. Any disagreements raised by creditors with the terms of the Plan, including with respect to the appropriateness of substantive consolidation, will be handled through litigation as part of the confirmation process. Owens Corning is unable to predict the outcome of such litigation.

1. VOLUNTARY PETITION FOR RELIEF UNDER CHAPTER 11 (continued)

Under the Plan, a majority of the newly issued common stock, together with notes, and cash, as well as the assets of the existing Fibreboard Settlement Trust (see Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), will fund a new trust created under the Plan intended to qualify under Section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Section 524(g) trust will assume all obligations of Owens Corning, Fibreboard, and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates, for current and future asbestos personal injury claims and demands, and will, through Owens Corning and Fibreboard sub-accounts, make payments to claimants in accordance with trust distribution procedures to be agreed upon. In addition, the Plan provides for an injunction by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to Section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code that will enjoin actions against the reorganized Debtors for the purpose of, directly or indirectly, collecting, recovering or receiving payment of, on, or with respect to any claims resulting from asbestos-containing products allegedly manufactured, sold or installed by Owens Corning or Fibreboard, which claims will be paid in whole or in part by the Section 524(g) trust. Similar plans of reorganization have been confirmed in the Chapter 11 cases of other companies involved in asbestos-related litigation. Section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that, if certain specified conditions are satisfied, a court may issue a supplemental permanent injunction barring the assertion of asbestos-related claims or demands against the reorganized company and channeling those claims to an independent trust.

Among other things, the Plan provides that (1) except as otherwise provided in the Plan, no distributions will be made under the Plan on account of inter-company claims among any of the Debtors, and (2) all guarantees of the Debtors of the obligations of any other Debtor will be deemed eliminated. Since, as described above, it is likely that the Plan will be the subject of continuing negotiations or litigation, Owens Corning is unable to predict at this time what the treatment of such matters, and other inter-company and intra-company arrangements, transactions and relationships that were entered into prior to the Petition Date, will ultimately be under any plan or plans of reorganization finally confirmed. Such matters and other arrangements, transactions and relationships may be challenged by various parties in the Chapter 11 Cases and payments and other obligations in respect thereof may be restricted or modified by order of, or subject to review and approval by, the Bankruptcy Court. The outcome of such challenges and other actions, if any, may have an impact on the treatment of various claims under the plan or plans ultimately confirmed and on the respective assets, liabilities and results of operations of Owens Corning and its subsidiaries. For example, Owens Corning is unable to predict at this time what the treatment will ultimately be under any such plan or plans with respect to (1) the guarantees issued by certain of Owens Corning’s U.S. subsidiaries, including Owens-Corning Fiberglas Technology Inc. (“OCFT”) and IPM Inc., a Non-Debtor Subsidiary that holds Owens Corning’s ownership interest in a majority of Owens Corning’s foreign subsidiaries (“IPM”), with respect to Owens Corning’s $1.8 billion pre-petition bank credit facility (the “Pre-Petition Credit Facility”, which is in default) or (2) OCFT’s license agreements with Owens Corning and Exterior Systems, Inc., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Owens Corning (“Exterior”), pursuant to which OCFT licenses intellectual property to Owens Corning and Exterior. In the event that (1) the major creditor constituencies do not approve the Plan and (2) no other acceptable alternative agreement is reached to release such entities from their guaranty obligations, Owens Corning expects to cause IPM as well as Vytec Corporation and Owens-Corning Fiberglas Sweden Inc., two other Non-Debtor Subsidiaries that have issued guarantees in connection with the Pre-Petition Credit Facility, to file for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and to join in the proposal of the Plan, and will also seek to cause those Non-Debtor Subsidiaries to be substantively consolidated with the current Debtors for the purposes set forth in the Plan.

The Bankruptcy Court may confirm a plan of reorganization only upon making certain findings required by the Bankruptcy Code, and a plan may be confirmed over the dissent of non-accepting creditors and equity security holders if certain requirements of the Bankruptcy Code are met. The payment rights and other entitlements of pre-petition creditors and Owens Corning’s shareholders may be substantially altered by any plan or plans of reorganization confirmed in the Chapter 11 Cases, and the pre-petition creditors of some Debtors may be treated differently than those of other Debtors.

1. VOLUNTARY PETITION FOR RELIEF UNDER CHAPTER 11 (continued)

Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, schedules have been filed by the Debtors with the Bankruptcy Court setting forth the assets and liabilities of the Debtors as of the date of the Filing. Differences between amounts recorded by the Debtors and claims filed by creditors will be investigated and resolved as part of the proceedings in the Chapter 11 Cases.

Bar Dates for Filing Claims

GENERAL BAR DATE

In connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, the Bankruptcy Court set April 15, 2002 as the last date by which holders of certain pre-petition claims against the Debtors must file their claims (the “General Bar Date”). The General Bar Date does not apply to asbestos-related personal injury claims and asbestos-related wrongful death claims (other than claims for contribution, indemnity, reimbursement, or subrogation). Any holder of a claim that was required to file a claim by the General Bar Date and did not do so will be barred from asserting such claim against any of the Debtors and will not participate in any distribution in any of the Chapter 11 Cases on account of such claim.

Approximately 24,000 proofs of claim (including late-filed claims), totaling approximately $16.1 billion, alleging a right to payment from a Debtor were filed with the Bankruptcy Court in response to the General Bar Date. Owens Corning is investigating these claims to determine their validity. The Bankruptcy Court will ultimately determine liability amounts that will be allowed for these claims in the Chapter 11 Cases.

In its initial review of the filed claims, Owens Corning has identified approximately 15,000 claims, totaling approximately $8.4 billion, which it believes should be disallowed by the Bankruptcy Court, primarily because they appear to be duplicate claims or claims that are not related to the indicated Debtor (the “Objectionable Claims”). Owens Corning has filed omnibus objections to certain of these Objectionable Claims and likely will file additional objections. While the Bankruptcy Court will ultimately determine liability amounts, if any, that will be allowed as part of the Chapter 11 Cases, Owens Corning believes that all or substantially all of these Objectionable Claims will be disallowed.

In addition to the Objectionable Claims described above, at June 30, 2003, the remaining filed proofs of claim included approximately 9,000 claims, totaling approximately $7.7 billion, as follows:

–

Approximately 2,900 claims, totaling approximately $1.4 billion, associated with asbestos-related contribution, indemnity, reimbursement, or subrogation claims. Owens Corning will address all asbestos-related personal injury and wrongful death claims in the future as part of the Chapter 11 Cases. Please see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning asbestos-related liabilities.

–

Approximately 600 claims, totaling approximately $0.7 billion, alleging asbestos-related property damage. Most of these claims were submitted with insufficient documentation to assess their validity. Owens Corning expects to vigorously defend any asserted asbestos-related property damage claims in the Bankruptcy Court. Based upon its historic experience in respect of asbestos-related property damage claims, Owens Corning does not anticipate significant liability from any such claims.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

1. VOLUNTARY PETITION FOR RELIEF UNDER CHAPTER 11 (continued)

–

Approximately 5,500 claims, totaling approximately $5.6 billion, alleging rights to payment for financing, environmental, trade debt and other matters (the “General Claims”). The Company has previously recorded approximately $3.7 billion in liabilities for these claims. Based upon the claims information submitted, the General Claims with the largest variance from the recorded amounts are: claims by the United States Department of Treasury, totaling approximately $530 million, in connection with taxes (see discussion under the heading “Tax Claim” in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements); a contingent claim for approximately $458 million by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, as described more fully under the heading “PBGC Claim” in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements; claims for contract rejections, totaling approximately $313 million, of which approximately $257 million are protective claims covering contracts which have not been rejected by the Debtors as of June 30, 2003; a $275 million class action claim involving alleged problems with a specialty roofing product, which claim Owens Corning does not believe is meritorious based upon its historic experience with servicing its warranty program for such product; and environmental claims, totaling approximately $244 million.

Owens Corning has recorded liability amounts for those claims that can be reasonably estimated and which it believes are probable of being allowed by the Bankruptcy Court. At this time, it is impossible to reasonably estimate the value of all the claims that will ultimately be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court, due to the uncertainties of the Chapter 11 process, the in-progress state of Owens Corning’s investigation of submitted claims, and the lack of documentation submitted in support of many claims. Owens Corning continues to evaluate claims filed in the Chapter 11 Cases and will make such adjustments as may be appropriate. Any such adjustments could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations in any given period. For a discussion of liability amounts in respect of asbestos personal injury claims, see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASBESTOS BAR DATE

A bar date for filing proofs of claim against the Debtors with respect to asbestos-related personal injury claims and asbestos-related wrongful death claims (other than claims for contribution, indemnity, reimbursement, or subrogation) has not been set. On April 11, 2003, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors filed a motion seeking establishment of a bar date for such asbestos-related claims. On April 25, 2003, the District Court entered an order withdrawing the reference of the Chapter 11 Cases to the USBC with respect to such motion, and staying all proceedings on such motion pending further order of the District Court.

As indicated above, the General Bar Date does not apply to asbestos-related personal injury claims and asbestos-related wrongful death claims (other than claims for contribution, indemnity, reimbursement, or subrogation). Despite this, approximately 3,000 proofs of claim (in addition to claims described above under “General Bar Date”), totaling approximately $2.2 billion, with respect to asbestos-related personal injury or wrongful death were filed with the Bankruptcy Court in response to the General Bar Date. Of these claims, Owens Corning has identified approximately 1,100, totaling approximately $0.5 billion, as Objectionable Claims. Of the remaining claims, Owens Corning believes that a substantial majority represent claimants that had previously asserted asbestos-related claims against the Company.

As noted above, under the Plan all asbestos-related personal injury and wrongful death claims will be channeled to the Section 524(g) trust, subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. Please see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning asbestos-related liabilities.

Avoidance Actions

Under the Bankruptcy Code, October 4, 2002 was the deadline by which the Debtors, on behalf of the bankruptcy estates, could bring adversary actions seeking the return of potentially avoidable transfers made by the Debtors to certain parties within a prescribed period prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 proceedings. As part of their review of potentially avoidable transactions, the Debtors (1) negotiated tolling agreements with some of the recipients of the preferential transfers in order to toll the time period in which to bring an avoidance action; (2) determined not to prosecute certain of those potential avoidance actions that were not the subject of tolling agreements; and (3) instituted, prior to the October 4, 2002 deadline, a total of 19 adversarial actions, including 3 preference actions, 1 turnover action, and 15 avoidance actions, as described further below. All such actions were commenced in the USBC.

Among the parties who were identified by the Debtors as having received potentially avoidable transfers were (a) 12 present and former officers that received certain pre-petition incentive payments exceeding a threshold in the aggregate per officer; (b) one director that received a pre-petition pension payment; and (c) a joint venture affiliate of the Company that received approximately $3.8 million in the one-year period prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 proceedings.

The Debtors have executed tolling agreements with all 12 present and former officers, the director and the affiliate of the Company, as well as with certain other parties identified as having received potentially avoidable transfers.

The adversary actions were commenced against various other defendants seeking, among other things, (a) avoidance of certain guarantees and certain preferential payments made in connection with Owens Corning’s Pre-Petition Credit Facility; (b) the return of up to approximately $515 million paid by the Company to shareholders of Fibreboard in connection with the Company’s purchase of Fibreboard in 1997 (the “FBD Shareholder Action”); (c) the return of up to approximately $61.8 million paid by the Company to shareholders in dividends in the period 1996 through 2000 (the “Dividend Action”); and (d) the return of approximately $133 million paid by the Company to Bank of America Corp. in connection with Owens Corning’s purchase of Fibreboard in 1997. Both the FBD Shareholder Action and the Dividend Action are defendant class actions. Certain present or former officers or directors of the Company may be members of either or both defendant classes.

Separately, and at the request of the Debtors’ Official Creditors’ Committee and the direction of the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors either obtained tolling agreements from, or filed actions against, approximately 115 law firms that entered into NSP or non-NSP agreements (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) with the Debtors on behalf of claimants asserting asbestos-related personal injury or wrongful death claims. Lawsuits were brought against the 11 law firms that did not sign tolling agreements, seeking two forms of relief: (a) first, a declaratory judgment as to whether payments made, or obligations incurred, under NSP and non-NSP agreements were in exchange for reasonably equivalent value; and (b) second, in the event reasonably equivalent value was not received, the recovery or avoidance of payments made and obligations incurred under the relevant NSP and non-NSP agreements pursuant to applicable state and federal fraudulent conveyance law. The Official Creditors’ Committee was named as a defendant in such lawsuits, solely with respect to the declaratory relief sought.

1. VOLUNTARY PETITION FOR RELIEF UNDER CHAPTER 11 (continued)

By motion filed on or about October 16, 2002, the Debtors sought an order of the Bankruptcy Court staying all of the foregoing litigation pending its disposition in a plan of reorganization. Pursuant to orders of the Bankruptcy Court, all of the foregoing litigation, other than the action relating to the avoidance of certain guarantees and certain preferential payments made in connection with Owens Corning’s Pre-Petition Credit Facility, has been stayed until February 2, 2004, subject to the right of any defendant to move to modify/terminate the stay. The Debtors’ action relating to the avoidance of certain guarantees and certain preferential payments made in connection with Owens Corning’s Pre-Petition Credit Facility, previously scheduled for trial before the District Court commencing in June 2003, has been continued indefinitely by the Court.

Certain Post-petition Matters

The Debtors have received approval from the Bankruptcy Court to pay or otherwise honor certain of their pre-petition obligations, including employee wages, salaries, benefits and other employee obligations, pre-petition claims of critical vendors, and certain other pre-petition claims including certain customer program and warranty claims.

As a result of the Filing, contractual interest expense has not been accrued or recorded on pre-petition debt of the Debtors since the Petition Date. From the Petition Date through June 30, 2003, contractual interest expense not accrued or recorded on pre-petition debt totaled $426 million, of which $32 million relates to the second quarter of 2003, $64 million relates to the first six months of 2003, and $35 million and $71 million, respectively, relate to the corresponding periods of 2002.

At June 30, 2003, the Company had $807 million of cash and cash equivalents.

In connection with the Filing, the Debtors obtained a $500 million debtor-in-possession credit facility from a group of lenders led by Bank of America, N.A. (the “DIP Financing”), which was originally scheduled to expire November 15, 2002. Effective October 31, 2002, the DIP Financing was amended to, among other things, reduce the maximum available credit amount to $250 million and extend the scheduled expiration to November 15, 2004. There were no borrowings outstanding under the DIP Financing at June 30, 2003; however, approximately $83 million of the availability under this credit facility was utilized as a result of the issuance of standby letters of credit and similar uses.

As a consequence of the Filing and the impact of certain provisions of the Company’s DIP Financing and in a cash management order entered by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company and its subsidiaries are now subject to certain restrictions, including on their ability to pay dividends and to transfer cash and other assets to each other and to their affiliates.

The Company believes, based on information presently available to it, that its cash and cash equivalents, cash available from operations, and the DIP Financing will provide sufficient liquidity to allow it to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future. However, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern (including its ability to meet post-petition obligations of the Debtors and to meet obligations of the Non-Debtor Subsidiaries) and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis for its financial statements are dependent upon, among other things, (i) the Company’s ability to comply with the terms of the DIP Financing and any cash management order entered by the Bankruptcy Court from time to time in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, (ii) the ability of the Company to maintain adequate cash on hand, (iii) the ability of the Company to generate cash from operations, (iv) the ability of the Non-Debtor Subsidiaries to obtain necessary financing, (v) confirmation of a plan or plans of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code, and (vi) the Company’s ability to maintain profitability following such confirmation.

Financial Statement Presentation

The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 90-7 (“SOP 90-7”), “Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code,” and on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. However, as a result of the Filing, such realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities are subject to uncertainty. While operating as debtors-in-possession under the protection of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and subject to Bankruptcy Court approval or otherwise as permitted in the ordinary course of business, the Debtors, or some of them, may sell or otherwise dispose of assets and liquidate or settle liabilities for amounts other than those reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Further, a plan of reorganization could materially change the amounts and classifications reported in the consolidated historical financial statements.

Substantially all of the Company’s pre-petition debt is now in default due to the Filing. As described below, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements present the Debtors’ pre-petition debt under the caption “Liabilities Subject to Compromise”. This includes debt under the Pre-Petition Credit Facility and approximately $1.4 billion of other outstanding debt. As required by SOP 90-7, at the Petition Date the Company recorded the Debtors’pre-petition debt instruments at the allowed amount, as defined by SOP 90-7.

As reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Liabilities Subject to Compromise” refer to Debtors’liabilities incurred prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases. The amounts of the various liabilities that are subject to compromise are set forth below following the debtor-in-possession financial statements. These amounts represent Owens Corning’s estimate of known or potential pre-petition claims to be resolved in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases. Such claims remain subject to future adjustments. Adjustments may result from (1) negotiations; (2) actions of the Bankruptcy Court; (3) further developments with respect to disputed claims; (4) rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases; (5) the determination as to the value of any collateral securing claims; (6) proofs of claim; or (7) other events. Payment terms for these amounts will be established in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases.

In this respect, the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, and the Debtor-In-Possession financial statements presented below, reflect charges to income of $1.381 billion for Owens Corning and $975 million for Fibreboard during the quarterly period ended September 30, 2002, in connection with asbestos-related liabilities. Please see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Debtor-In-Possession Financial Statements

The condensed financial statements of the Debtors are presented below. These statements reflect the financial position and results of operations of the combined Debtor entities, including certain amounts and activities between Debtors and non-debtor entities of Owens Corning that are eliminated in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. SEGMENT DATA

During 2003, the Company realigned its internal operating segments. Following this realignment, the Company reviewed its segments in accordance with SFAS No. 131 and concluded that the aggregation of its operating segments into two reportable segments is still appropriate; however, certain components within the segments have changed. Net sales and income from operations have been reclassified for all periods presented to reflect this change.

The Company has reported financial and descriptive information about each of the Company’s two reportable segments below on a basis that is used internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to those segments.

3. GENERAL

The consolidated financial statements included in this Report are unaudited, pursuant to certain rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and include, in the opinion of the Company, adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods indicated, which, however, are not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for the full year.

In connection with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in this Report, reference is made to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s 2002 annual report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

4. RESTRUCTURING OF OPERATIONS AND OTHER CHARGES

Second Quarter 2003

In the second quarter of 2003, the Company recorded a pretax charge of approximately $13 million, consisting of a $14 million loss on the sale of the Company’s metal systems business, offset by a $1 million credit representing the gain on the sale of assets of the Company’s mineral wool business. Such $13 million charge, along with a net $1 million credit for various other items, was reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss) under the caption, “Other”. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning these sales.

First Quarter 2003

In the first quarter of 2003, the Company recorded approximately $30 million in pretax charges, comprised of a $2 million pretax charge to restructure costs (classified as a separate component of operating expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss)) and a $28 million charge to cost of sales. The $2 million restructure charge represents additional non-cash asset write-downs of previously closed non-strategic facilities to their fair value.

The $28 million charge to cost of sales represents the additional write-down of two groups of assets in the Building Materials segment to net realizable value based on valuations of the future cash flows of the assets using assumptions consistent with current market conditions.

2002

As a result of a comprehensive strategic review and actions taken, the Company recorded approximately $166 million in pretax charges during 2002, comprised of a $61 million pretax restructure charge and $105 million of pretax other charges. The Company recorded $113 million in the fourth quarter of 2002, $44 million in the third quarter, $(3) million in the second quarter, and $12 million in the first quarter.

The $61 million restructure charge includes $17 million of severance costs associated with the elimination of 830 positions due to plant closures in the U.S. and U.K. and $18 million of severance costs associated with the elimination of 349 other positions, primarily impacting administrative personnel. As of June 30, 2003, all of these positions were actually eliminated. As of June 30, 2003, approximately $30 million has been paid and charged against the reserve. The remaining $26 million restructure charge represents the cost of closure of non-strategic facilities, comprised of $24 million in non-cash asset write-downs to fair value and $2 million of other exit cost liabilities. As of June 30, 2003, approximately $2 million has been paid and charged against the reserve for exit cost liabilities.

4. RESTRUCTURING OF OPERATIONS AND OTHER CHARGES (continued)

The $105 million in other pretax charges was recorded as a $110 million charge to cost of sales and a credit of $5 million to other operating expenses. The $110 million charge to cost of sales includes: (1) charges of $66 million to write-down assets to net realizable value based on valuations of the future cash flows of the assets using assumptions consistent with current market conditions, $28 million in the Composite Solutions segment, primarily as the result of a plant closure, and $38 million in the Building Materials segment, primarily as the result of plans to sell certain facilities; (2) a $19 million charge for inventory made obsolete by changes in the Company’s manufacturing and marketing processes; (3) a charge of $6 million associated with the Company’s previously announced plan to realign its Newark, OH manufacturing facility; and (4) $19 million of other restructure charges.

Status of Liability for Restructuring Programs

The following table summarizes the status of the unpaid liabilities from the Company’s restructuring actions since 2000, when the Company implemented the first phase of a strategic restructuring program, including cumulative spending and adjustments and the remaining balance as of June 30, 2003:

			Facility and

Balance at December 31, 2002		28		1		29

Payments		20		1		21

Balance at June 30, 2003	$	8	$	-	$	8

In addition, as of June 30, 2003, a liability of approximately $16 million remains from a restructuring program implemented during 1997 and 1998 related to closing manufacturing locations and reducing overhead. This liability is primarily related to extended personnel severance costs.

Long-Lived Asset Accounting

The Company continually evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate that the carrying amount of certain long-lived assets is recoverable. When factors indicate that a long-lived asset should be evaluated for possible impairment, the Company uses an estimate of the expected undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the asset to determine whether the carrying amount is recoverable or if impairment exists. When it is determined that an impairment exists, the Company uses the fair market value of the asset, usually measured by the discounted cash flows to be generated by the asset, to determine the amount of the impairment to be recorded in the financial statements.

5. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES OF BUSINESSES

Acquisitions

During June 2002, the Company received Bankruptcy Court approval to consummate the restructuring of the Company’s Indian joint venture, Owens-Corning (India) Limited (“OCIL”), a producer of composite material. As part of the restructuring, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, IPM Inc., contributed approximately $3 million of cash into OCIL and the Company agreed to allow a guarantee claim in the amount of approximately $19 million in its Chapter 11 proceedings in respect of OCIL’s junior debt. In addition, OCIL’s senior debt maturities were extended, and its junior debt was converted to approximately $7 million of redeemable convertible debentures. Through these restructuring efforts the Company’s ownership interest in OCIL increased from approximately 50% to approximately 60%. The Company consolidated OCIL on July 1, 2002, when the restructuring was consummated by all of the parties to the restructuring and approved by the Indian Government, at which time the allowed claim of approximately $19 million was added to Liabilities Subject to Compromise. The Company accounted for this transaction under the purchase method of accounting, whereby the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including approximately $57 million of senior debt (consisting of approximately $33 million of debentures due in 2009 at a variable interest rate and approximately $24 million of debentures due in 2009 at a fixed rate of 10%), approximately $7 million of redeemable convertible debentures due in 2010, and approximately $4 million of other debt, were recorded at their fair values and the Company began consolidating this subsidiary. The $19 million allowed claim was recorded at its estimated fair value of approximately $6 million as an additional investment in OCIL and the difference of approximately $13 million was recorded as reorganization expense in the Company’s consolidated statement of income (loss). Prior to July 1, 2002, the Company accounted for this joint venture under the equity method. The proforma effect of this acquisition on revenues and earnings was not material.

Divestitures

On May 22, 2003, the Company received Bankruptcy Court approval to sell the assets of its metal systems business. Net proceeds from the sale were $50 million, of which $40 million was received in the second quarter of 2003. A pretax loss of approximately $14 million was realized from the sale. The metal systems business had net sales of approximately $223 million and $214 million during 2002 and 2001, respectively, including intercompany sales to other Owens Corning businesses. The Company expects to make continued purchases from the divested business of approximately $65 million per year.

Also during May 2003, the Company received Bankruptcy Court approval to sell the assets of its mineral wool business. Net proceeds from the sale of $8 million were received in the second quarter of 2003. A pretax gain of approximately $1 million was realized from the sale.

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS

Asbestos Liabilities

ITEM A. – OWENS CORNING (EXCLUDING FIBREBOARD)

Numerous claims have been asserted against Owens Corning alleging personal injuries arising from inhalation of asbestos fibers. Virtually all of these claims arise out of Owens Corning’s manufacture, distribution, sale or installation of an asbestos-containing calcium silicate, high temperature insulation product, the manufacture and distribution of which was discontinued in 1972. Owens Corning received approximately 18,000 asbestos personal injury claims during 2000, approximately 32,000 such claims during 1999 and approximately 69,000 such claims during 1998. Owens Corning cautions that it has limited information about many of such claims, and the actual numbers of claims asserted remain subject to adjustment.

Prior to October 5, 2000, when the Debtors, including Fibreboard (see Item B below), filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, the vast majority of asserted asbestos personal injury claims were in the process of being resolved through the National Settlement Program described below. As a result of the Filing, all pre-petition asbestos claims and pending litigation against the Debtors, including without limitation claims arising under the National Settlement Program, were automatically stayed (see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Owens Corning expects that all pending and future asbestos claims against Owens Corning and Fibreboard will be resolved pursuant to a plan or plans of reorganization. Owens Corning is unable to determine at this time whether asbestos-related claims asserted against Fibreboard will be treated in the same manner as those asserted against Owens Corning in any such plan or plans ultimately confirmed.

As more fully discussed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and under the heading “Reserve” below, the Debtors, together with the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants, filed on August 8, 2003 a proposed third amended joint plan of reorganization for the Debtors. Ultimately, as described more fully under the heading “Reserve” below, it is anticipated that Owens Corning’s total liability for asbestos claims will be determined after a lengthy period of negotiations and, if necessary, by the Bankruptcy Court, taking into account numerous factors not present in the Company’s pre-petition environment. Such factors include the claims of competing creditor groups as to the appropriate treatment of their allowed claims in the plan or plans of reorganization, the size of the total asbestos liability, the total number of present asbestos claims allowed, the total amount of future asbestos claims allowed, and the impact of the Administrative Consolidation.

National Settlement Program Claims

Beginning in late 1998, Owens Corning implemented a National Settlement Program (“NSP”) to resolve personal injury asbestos claims through settlement agreements with individual plaintiffs’ law firms. The NSP was intended to better manage the asbestos liabilities of Owens Corning and Fibreboard (see Item B below), and to help Owens Corning better predict the timing and amount of indemnity payments for both pending and future asbestos claims.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

The number of law firms participating in the NSP expanded from approximately 50 when the NSP was established to approximately 120 as of the Petition Date. Each of these participating law firms agreed to a long-term settlement agreement which varied by firm (“NSP Agreement”) extending through at least 2008 which provided for the resolution of their existing asbestos claims, including unfiled claims pending with the participating law firm at the time it entered into an NSP Agreement (“Initial Claims”). The NSP agreements also established procedures and fixed payments for resolving without litigation claims against either Owens Corning or Fibreboard, or both, arising after a participating firm entered into an NSP Agreement (“Future Claims”).

Settlement amounts for both Initial Claims and Future Claims were negotiated with each firm participating in the NSP, and each firm was to communicate with its respective clients to obtain authority to settle individual claims. Payments to individual claimants were to vary based on a number of factors, including the type and severity of disease, age and occupation. All such payments were subject to delivery of satisfactory evidence of a qualifying medical condition and exposure to Owens Corning’s and/or Fibreboard’s products, delivery of customary releases by each claimant, and other conditions. Certain claimants settling non-malignancy claims with Owens Corning and/or Fibreboard were entitled to an agreed pre-determined amount of additional compensation if they later developed a more severe asbestos-related medical condition.

As to Future Claims, each participating NSP firm agreed (consistent with applicable legal requirements) to recommend to its future clients, based on appropriately exercised professional judgment, to resolve their asbestos personal injury claims against Owens Corning and/or Fibreboard through an administrative processing arrangement, rather than litigation. In the case of Future Claims involving non-malignancy, claimants were required to present medical evidence of functional impairment, as well as the product exposure criteria and other requirements set forth above, to be entitled to compensation.

As of the Petition Date, the NSP covered approximately 239,000 Initial Claims against Owens Corning, approximately 150,000 of which had satisfied all conditions to final settlement, including receipt of executed releases, or other resolution (the “Final NSP Settlements”) at an average cost per claim of approximately $9,300. As of the Petition Date, approximately 89,000 of such Final NSP Settlements had been paid in full or otherwise resolved, and approximately 61,000 were unpaid in whole or in part. As of such date, the remaining balance payable under NSP Agreements in connection with these unpaid Final NSP Settlements was approximately $510 million. Through the Petition Date, Owens Corning had received approximately 6,000 Future Claims under the NSP.

At this time, Owens Corning is unable to predict the manner in which the NSP Agreements and the resolution of claims thereunder will ultimately be treated under the terms of any plan or plans of reorganization.

Non-NSP Claims

As of the Petition Date, approximately 29,000 asbestos personal injury claims were pending against Owens Corning outside the NSP. This compares to approximately 25,000 such claims pending on December 31, 1999. The information needed for a critical evaluation of pending claims, including the nature and severity of disease and definitive identifying information concerning claimants, typically becomes available only through the discovery process or as a result of settlement negotiations, which often occur years after particular claims are filed. As a result, Owens Corning has limited information about many of such claims.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

Owens Corning resolved (by settlement or otherwise) approximately 10,000 asbestos personal injury claims outside the NSP during 1998, 5,000 such claims during 1999 and 3,000 such claims during 2000 prior to the Petition Date. The average cost of resolution was approximately $35,900 per claim for claims resolved during 1998, $34,600 per claim for claims resolved during 1999, and $44,800 per claim for claims resolved during 2000 prior to the Petition Date. Generally, these claims were settled as they were scheduled for trial, and they typically involved more serious injuries and diseases. Accordingly, Owens Corning does not believe that such average costs of resolution are representative of the value of the non-NSP claims then pending against the Company.

At this time, Owens Corning is unable to predict the manner in which non-NSP claims will ultimately be treated under the terms of any plan or plans of reorganization.

Asbestos-Related Payments

As a result of the Filing, Owens Corning has not made any asbestos-related payments since the Petition Date except for approximately $20 million paid on its behalf by third parties pursuant to appeal bonds issued prior to the Petition Date. During 1999 and 2000 (prior to the Petition Date), Owens Corning (excluding Fibreboard) made asbestos-related payments falling within four major categories: (1) Settlements in respect of verdicts incurred or claims resolved prior to the implementation of the NSP (“Pre-NSP Settlements”); (2) NSP settlements; (3) Non-NSP settlements covering cases not resolved by the NSP; and (4) Defense, claims processing and administrative expenses, as follows:

			2000 (through
	1999		October 4, 2000)
	(In millions of dollars)

Pre-NSP Settlements	$	170	$	51
NSP Settlements		570		538
Non-NSP Settlements		30		42
Defense, Claims Processing and Administrative Expenses		90		54

	$	860	$	685

All amounts discussed above are before tax and application of insurance recoveries.

Prior to the Petition Date, Owens Corning deposited certain amounts in escrow accounts to facilitate claims processing under the NSP (“Administrative Deposits”). Amounts deposited into escrow in Administrative Deposits during a reporting period are included in the payments shown for NSP Settlements during the period. At June 30, 2003, approximately $106 million of Administrative Deposits previously made by Owens Corning had not been finally distributed to claimants (“Undistributed Administrative Deposits”) and, accordingly, are reflected in Owens Corning’s consolidated balance sheet as restricted assets (under the caption “Restricted cash – asbestos and insurance related”) and have not been subtracted from Owens Corning’s reserve for asbestos personal injury claims (discussed below).

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

At this time, Owens Corning is unable to predict what the treatment of funds held in Undistributed Administrative Deposits will ultimately be under the terms of any plan or plans of reorganization. However, in 2001, the holder of approximately $49 million of Undistributed Administrative Deposits for Owens Corning (and approximately $28 million of similar Undistributed Administrative Deposits for Fibreboard) filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting an order authorizing distribution of the deposits it holds (“Subject Deposits”) to the escrow beneficiaries. As the result of hearings held on June 20 and July 22, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court has ruled that escrow beneficiaries that had received both written notice of approval for payment and an initial payment from the Subject Deposits prior to the Petition Date would be entitled to receive their remaining payments (plus post-judgment interest after June 20, 2002) from the principal of the Subject Deposits, with the balance of the Subject Deposits, if any, plus any other investment proceeds to be returned to Owens Corning (or Fibreboard, as appropriate) as contributor of the deposits. The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants have each filed a notice of appeal from the order.

Reserve

Owens Corning estimates a reserve in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles to reflect asbestos-related liabilities that have been asserted or are probable of assertion, in which liabilities are probable and reasonably estimable. This reserve was established initially through a charge to income in 1991, with additional charges to income of $1.1 billion in 1996, $1.4 billion in 1998, $1.0 billion in 2000 and $1.4 billion in the third quarter of 2002.

As of June 30, 2003, a reserve of approximately $3.6 billion in respect of Owens Corning’s asbestos-related liabilities was one of the items included in Owens Corning’s consolidated balance sheet under the category “Liabilities Subject to Compromise”. For periods prior to the Petition Date, these liabilities were reflected as current or other liabilities (depending on the period in which payment was expected) under the category “Reserve for asbestos litigation claims”.

As Owens Corning has discussed in previous public filings, any estimate of its liabilities for pending and expected future asbestos claims is subject to considerable uncertainty because such liabilities are influenced by numerous variables that are inherently difficult to predict. As discussed further below, such uncertainties significantly increased as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases. Prior to the Petition Date, such variables included, among others, the cost of resolving pending non-NSP claims; the disease mix and severity of disease of pending NSP claims; the number, severity of disease, and jurisdiction of claims filed in the future (especially the number of mesothelioma claims); how many future claimants were covered by an NSP Agreement; the extent, if any, to which individual claimants exercised a right to opt out of an NSP Agreement and/or engage counsel not participating in the NSP; the extent, if any, to which counsel not bound by an NSP Agreement undertook the representation of asbestos personal injury plaintiffs against Owens Corning; the extent, if any, to which Owens Corning exercised its right to terminate one or more of the NSP Agreements due to excessive opt-outs or for other reasons; and Owens Corning’s success in controlling the costs of resolving future non-NSP claims.

As one example of the difficulties inherent in estimating future asbestos claims, Owens Corning notes that the Manville Personal Injury Settlement Trust, a trust established to settle asbestos claims against Johns Manville Corporation, announced in June 2001 that it was reducing its initial settlement distributions by fifty percent on the basis of the continued record pace of asbestos claim filings and the prediction of its consultants that the trust might receive 1.5 to 2.5 million additional claims.

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

The Chapter 11 Cases have significantly increased the inherent difficulties and uncertainties involved in estimating the number and cost of resolution of present and future asbestos-related claims against Owens Corning and will likely have the effect of increasing the number and ultimate cost of resolution of such claims substantially. In particular, the status of the NSP Agreements and the ultimate treatment of pending and future claims thereunder will depend on the outcome of negotiations among the various constituencies in the Chapter 11 Cases and determinations by the Bankruptcy Court as to the issues involved, none of which can be predicted at this time. The uncertainties associated with the status of the NSP Agreements and the treatment of claims thereunder include the following:

–

It is possible that one or more constituencies in the Chapter 11 Cases may seek to set aside the NSP Agreements on various grounds. In any event, it is highly uncertain how any plan or plans of reorganization will ultimately treat the various types of NSP claims, including without limitation claims with no evidence of significant medical impairment, or whether such unimpaired claims will be treated as allowed claims thereunder.

–

The settlement values for specified categories of disease set forth in the NSP Agreements were established by arm’s-length negotiations with the participating law firms in circumstances very different from those prevailing in the Chapter 11 Cases. The settlement values available to individual claimants under the arrangements to be included in any plan or plans of reorganization may vary substantially from those contemplated by the NSP Agreements. Because Owens Corning’s estimate of liabilities in respect of non-NSP claims assumed payment of settlement values similar to those contained in the NSP Agreements, such estimate is subject to similar uncertainty.

Additional uncertainties raised by the Chapter 11 Cases include the following:

–	The impact, if any, the Administrative Consolidation will have on the timing, outcome or other aspects of the Chapter 11 Cases.

–

It is uncertain what claim submission process will be prescribed by the Bankruptcy Court for pre-petition asbestos claims against Owens Corning or Fibreboard and what effects such process may have, including on the number of such claims. Moreover, the Filing, including the significant publicity associated with the Chapter 11 Cases and notices required by the Bankruptcy Code that must be given to creditors and other parties in interest, has significantly increased the inherent difficulties and uncertainties involved in estimating the number and cost of resolution of not only pre-petition claims but also additional claims that may be asserted in the course of the Chapter 11 Cases.

–

Owens Corning anticipates that the number and estimated aggregate value of allowed future claims will ultimately be determined either as a result of negotiations involving the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants and the other interested constituencies or, if necessary, by the Bankruptcy Court. It is not possible to predict the outcome of such negotiations, or Bankruptcy Court determination, at this time.

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

In connection with the negotiation of a plan or plans of reorganization, a number of interested constituencies, including the representatives of the pre-petition and future asbestos claimants and other pre-petition creditors, have developed or will develop analyses of liability for both pre-petition and future asbestos claims. Owens Corning and Fibreboard will also utilize their own analyses in the negotiation process. Such analyses by the Debtors and other interested constituencies will also be required in connection with the establishment, as part of the plan of reorganization, of a Section 524(g) trust for the benefit of asbestos claimants. Based on facts currently known to it, including positions that have been articulated by various interested constituencies, Owens Corning believes that the estimates included in most or all such analyses will vary substantially from the amounts of Owens Corning’s and Fibreboard’s respective asbestos reserves in prior periods, and will also vary substantially from one another, for a number of reasons.

First, such analyses will not involve the same type of estimation process required in connection with the preparation of financial statements under generally accepted accounting principles. In general, such accounting principles require accruals with respect to contingent liabilities (including asbestos liabilities) only to the extent that such liabilities are both probable and reasonably estimable. With respect to such liabilities that are probable as to which a reasonable estimate can be made only in terms of a range (with no point within the range determined to be more probable than any other point in such range), such accounting principles require only the accrual of the amount representing the low point in such range.

In contrast, analyses prepared by interested constituencies in asbestos-related bankruptcy cases customarily cover potential liabilities over a 50-year period (at the end of which it is anticipated that potential asbestos claimants would in any event have died as a result of other non-asbestos-related causes). Owens Corning believes that any such analyses, and any assumptions utilized in the preparation of such analyses, are inherently speculative for a number of reasons, including the variables and uncertainties described in this Note. Moreover, because such analyses are prepared solely for use in the negotiation of a plan of reorganization, they naturally reflect the respective interests of the different constituencies putting them forward. Certain constituencies, for example, may have an interest in presenting an analysis that estimates such liability at the highest level that can arguably be justified; others may have an interest in estimating such liability at the lowest possible level; while others may have an interest in estimating such liability at a point between the two extremes, in an effort to achieve consensus in the negotiation of the plan of reorganization. In addition, interested constituencies in Owens Corning’s bankruptcy proceedings may also take into account the implications of any such analyses prepared for use in Owens Corning’s bankruptcy proceedings on their position in one or more of the other asbestos-related bankruptcy cases pending in the District of Delaware or elsewhere.

None of the creditor constituencies has yet made available to Owens Corning a report of any such analysis of liability for pre-petition or future asbestos claims. However, based upon its discussions and negotiations with representatives of the creditor constituencies, Owens Corning believes that some of these creditor analyses associated with the resolution of Owens Corning’s and Fibreboard’s asbestos-related liabilities in the context of the Chapter 11 proceedings will be well in excess of Owens Corning’s and Fibreboard’s current asbestos-related reserves. For example, the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants have taken the position that the aggregate amount of pre-petition and future asbestos claims for Owens Corning and Fibreboard, on a combined net present value basis, is in excess of $16 billion. In addition, in October 2002, Owens Corning and Fibreboard completed their own analyses of liability for purposes of facilitating plan discussions, which, as to future asbestos claims, were prepared by an outside consultant experienced in estimating asbestos-related claims in asbestos-related bankruptcies. These analyses indicate net present values for pre-petition and future asbestos claims of Owens Corning and Fibreboard combined of approximately $5.874 billion, if NSP settlement values are assumed, and $8.547 billion, if 5-year

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

historical settlement values for Owens Corning and Fibreboard, respectively, are used. Based upon these analyses and the information derived from Owens Corning’s discussions and negotiations with the various creditor constituencies concerning their relative positions on the terms of an acceptable plan of reorganization, Owens Corning decided, in connection with its financial statements for the third quarter of 2002, to increase its and Fibreboard’s aggregate asbestos-related reserve to the lower of the two net present value numbers indicated by Owens Corning’s and Fibreboard’s analyses. Consequently, Owens Corning increased its reserves for the period ended September 30, 2002, through charges to income of $1.381 billion for Owens Corning asbestos-related liabilities and $975 million for Fibreboard asbestos-related liabilities, for an aggregate charge of $2.356 billion. In addition, since the reserve for Fibreboard asbestos-related liabilities exceeds the funds held in the Fibreboard Settlement Trust, the residual amount payable to charity under the terms of the Trust (see Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) was reduced to zero as of September 30, 2002.

As noted above and in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Debtors, together with the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants, filed on August 8, 2003 a proposed third amended joint plan of reorganization for the Debtors. The Plan provides that liability for current and future asbestos personal injury claims against Owens Corning and Fibreboard would be determined by the Bankruptcy Court as part of the confirmation hearing on the Plan. The Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants have reserved the right to withdraw support of the Plan if such liability is determined to be less than $16 billion in the aggregate. In this regard, the Company’s bank and bond creditor groups, for example, have continued to assert that such aggregate liability approximates the amount of Owens Corning's existing reserves. It is therefore anticipated that the number and estimated aggregate value of current and future asbestos personal injury claims will ultimately be determined as a result of negotiations involving the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants, the Legal Representative of the class of future asbestos claimants and other interested constituencies or, if necessary, by the Bankruptcy Court. It is not possible to predict the outcome of such negotiations or court determination at this time. The ultimate determination of such liabilities will take into account numerous factors not present in the Company's pre-petition environment. Such factors include the claims of competing creditor groups as to the appropriate treatment of their allowed claims in the plan or plans of reorganization, the size of the total asbestos liability, the total number of present asbestos claims allowed, the total amount of future asbestos claims allowed, and the impact of the Administrative Consolidation.

At June 30, 2003, the approximate balances of the components of Owens Corning’s asbestos-related reserve were:

			Balance
			(In billions of dollars)

Unpaid Final Settlements (NSP and other)			$ 0.6
Other Pending and Future Claims			3.0

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

In connection with this asbestos reserve, Owens Corning notes that:

–

The “Unpaid Final Settlements” component represented the remaining estimated cost for all asbestos personal injury claims pending against Owens Corning which were subject to final settlement agreements for which releases from claimants were obtained, and under which all other conditions to settlement had been satisfied, as of the Petition Date.

–

The “Other Pending and Future Claims” component represented the estimated cost of resolving, through the Chapter 11 process, (i) asbestos personal injury claims pending against Owens Corning which were subject to resolution under NSP Agreements but for which releases were not obtained from claimants prior to the Petition Date; (ii) all other asbestos personal injury claims pending against Owens Corning which were not subject to any settlement agreement; and (iii) future asbestos personal injury claims against Owens Corning made after the Petition Date.

Owens Corning believes that its reserve for asbestos claims represents at least a minimum in a range of possible outcomes of the plan negotiation process as to the amount of its total liability for asbestos-related claims against it as determined through the Chapter 11 process. Given the nature of the Chapter 11 proceedings, described above, Owens Corning cautions that the total asbestos-related liability ultimately established in the Chapter 11 proceedings may be either higher or lower than the Company’s reserve. Owens Corning notes that it expects an ongoing high level of negotiations and information exchanges with the various creditor constituencies and other parties for the duration of the Chapter 11 proceedings. Owens Corning will continue to review its asbestos reserve on a periodic basis and make such adjustments as may be appropriate. However, it is possible that Owens Corning will not be in a position to conclude that a further revision to the reserve is appropriate until additional significant developments occur during the course of the Chapter 11 Cases, including resolution by negotiation or the Bankruptcy Court of its total liability for asbestos claims. Any such revision could, however, be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations in any given period.

On May 22, 2003, the United States Senate introduced proposed legislation (S 1125, also known as the Fairness in Asbestos Injury Resolution Act of 2003 (the “FAIR Act”)) that, if enacted into law, would establish an administrative claims resolution structure through which all asbestos personal injury claims would be channeled and reviewed. The FAIR Act would also establish a national trust fund, funded through mandated contributions from defendant companies, insurance companies and existing trusts, that would be the source of compensation of all approved claims. Under the present terms of the proposed FAIR Act, companies like Owens Corning and Fibreboard, that have filed for bankruptcy but have not yet emerged through a confirmed plan of reorganization, would be included as participants in the resolution structure.

ITEM B. – FIBREBOARD (EXCLUDING OWENS CORNING)

Prior to 1972, Fibreboard manufactured asbestos containing products, including insulation products. Fibreboard has since been named as defendant in many thousands of personal injury claims for injuries allegedly caused by asbestos exposure. Fibreboard received approximately 22,000 asbestos personal injury claims during 2000. Prior to the Petition Date, the vast majority of Fibreboard asbestos personal injury claims were in the process of being resolved through the NSP, as described below. As a result of the Filing, all pre-petition asbestos claims and pending litigation against the Debtors were automatically stayed (see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Owens Corning expects that all pending and future asbestos claims against Owens Corning and Fibreboard will be resolved pursuant to a plan or plans of reorganization. Owens Corning is unable to determine at this time whether asbestos-related claims asserted against Fibreboard will be treated in the same manner as those asserted against Owens Corning in any such plan or plans ultimately confirmed.

As discussed in Item A above and under the heading “Reserve” below, the Debtors (including Fibreboard), together with the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants, filed on August 8, 2003 a proposed third amended joint plan of reorganization for the Debtors (including Fibreboard). Ultimately, as described more fully under the heading “Reserve” below, it is anticipated that Fibreboard’s (and Owens Corning’s) total liability for asbestos claims will be finally determined after a lengthy period of negotiations and, if necessary, by the Bankruptcy Court, taking into account numerous factors not present in the Company’s pre-petition environment. Such factors include the claims of competing creditor groups as to the appropriate treatment of their allowed claims in the plan or plans of reorganization, the size of the total asbestos liability, the total number of present asbestos claims allowed, the total amount of future asbestos claims allowed, and the impact of the Administrative Consolidation.

National Settlement Program Claims

Fibreboard is a participant in the NSP and is a party to the NSP Agreements discussed in Item A. The NSP Agreements became effective as to Fibreboard in the fourth quarter of 1999, when the Insurance Settlement (discussed below) became effective. The NSP Agreements settled asbestos personal injury claims that had been filed against Fibreboard by participating plaintiffs’ law firms and claims that could have been filed against Fibreboard by such firms following the lifting, in the third quarter of 1999, of an injunction which had barred the filing of asbestos personal injury claims against Fibreboard.

As of the Petition Date, the NSP covered approximately 206,000 Initial Claims against Fibreboard, approximately 118,000 of which had satisfied all conditions to final settlement, including receipt of executed releases, or other resolution as Final NSP Settlements at an average cost per claim of approximately $7,400. As of the Petition Date, approximately 62,000 of such Final NSP Settlements had been paid in full or otherwise resolved and approximately 56,000 were unpaid in whole or in part. As of such date, the remaining balance payable under NSP Agreements in connection with these unpaid Final NSP Settlements was approximately $330 million. The NSP Agreements also provided for the resolution of Future Claims against Fibreboard through the administrative processing arrangement described in Item A. Through the Petition Date, Fibreboard had received approximately 6,000 Future Claims under the NSP.

At this time, Owens Corning is unable to predict the manner in which the NSP Agreements and the resolution of Fibreboard claims thereunder will ultimately be treated under the terms of any plan or plans of reorganization.

Non-NSP Claims

As of the Petition Date, approximately 9,000 asbestos personal injury claims were pending against Fibreboard outside the NSP. This compares to approximately 1,000 such claims pending on December 31, 1999. Fibreboard resolved (by settlement or otherwise) approximately 2,000 asbestos personal injury claims outside the NSP during 2000 prior to the Petition Date at an average cost of resolution of approximately $45,000 per claim. Generally, these claims were settled as they were scheduled for trial, and they typically involved more serious injuries and diseases. Accordingly, Owens Corning does not believe that such average cost of resolution is representative of the value of the non-NSP claims then pending against Fibreboard.

At this time, Owens Corning is unable to predict the manner in which Fibreboard non-NSP claims will ultimately be treated under the terms of any plan or plans of reorganization.

Insurance Settlement

In 1993, Fibreboard and two of its insurers, Continental Casualty Company (“Continental”) and Pacific Indemnity Company (“Pacific”), entered into the Insurance Settlement. The Insurance Settlement became effective in the fourth quarter of 1999.

Since 1993, Continental and Pacific paid, either directly or through an escrow account funded by them, for substantially all settlements of asbestos claims reached prior to the initiation of the NSP. Under the Insurance Settlement, Continental and Pacific provided $1.873 billion during the fourth quarter of 1999 to fund costs of resolving pending and future Fibreboard asbestos-related liabilities, whether under the NSP, in the tort system, or otherwise.

As of June 30, 2003, the remaining Insurance Settlement funds were held in and invested by the Fibreboard Settlement Trust. As of that date, $1.258 billion was held in the Fibreboard Settlement Trust and $127 million was held in Undistributed Administrative Deposits in respect of Fibreboard claims. On an ongoing basis, the funds held in the Fibreboard Settlement Trust will be subject to investment earnings/losses and will be reduced if and as applied to satisfy asbestos-related liabilities. Under the terms of the Fibreboard Settlement Trust, any of such assets that ultimately are not used to fund Fibreboard’s asbestos-related liabilities must be distributed to charity. However, since the reserve for Fibreboard asbestos-related liabilities exceeds the funds held in the Fibreboard Settlement Trust, the residual amount payable to charity under the terms of the Trust (see Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) was reduced to zero as of September 30, 2002.

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

Funds held in the Fibreboard Settlement Trust and Fibreboard’s Undistributed Administrative Deposits are reflected on Owens Corning’s consolidated balance sheet as restricted assets. At June 30, 2003, these assets were reflected as non-current assets, under the category “Restricted cash, securities and other – Fibreboard”. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning the Fibreboard Settlement Trust.

At this time, Owens Corning is unable to predict what the treatment of funds held in the Fibreboard Settlement Trust and in Undistributed Administrative Deposits in respect of Fibreboard claims (see Item A) will ultimately be under the terms of any plan or plans of reorganization.

Asbestos-Related Payments

As a result of the Filing, Fibreboard has not made any asbestos-related payments since the Petition Date. During 2000 (prior to the Petition Date), gross payments for asbestos-related claims against Fibreboard, all of which were paid/reimbursed by the Fibreboard Settlement Trust, fell within four major categories, as follows:

	2000 (through October 4, 2000)
	(In millions of dollars)

Pre-NSP Settlements		$	29
NSP Settlements			705
Non-NSP Settlements			41
Defense, Claims Processing and Administrative Expenses			45

		$	820

The payments for NSP Settlements include Administrative Deposits during the reporting period in respect of Fibreboard claims.

Reserve

Owens Corning estimates a reserve for Fibreboard in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles to reflect asbestos-related liabilities. As described in Item A above, this reserve was increased in the third quarter of 2002 through a charge to income of $975 million. As of June 30, 2003, a reserve of approximately $2.3 billion in respect of these asbestos-related liabilities was one of the items included in Owens Corning’s consolidated balance sheet under the category “Liabilities Subject to Compromise”. For periods prior to the Petition Date, they were reflected as current or other liabilities (depending on the period in which payment was expected) under the category “Asbestos-related liabilities – Fibreboard”.

As noted in Item A above as to Owens Corning, the estimate of Fibreboard's liabilities for pending and expected future asbestos claims is subject to considerable uncertainty because such liabilities are influenced by numerous variables that are inherently difficult to predict, and such uncertainties significantly increased as a result of the Filing, including those set forth in Item A above. In addition, as noted above, the Debtors filed on August 8, 2003 a proposed third amended joint plan of reorganization for the Debtors (including Fibreboard). The Plan provides that liability for current and future asbestos personal injury claims against Owens Corning and Fibreboard would be determined by the Bankruptcy Court as part of the confirmation hearing on the Plan. The Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants have reserved the right to withdraw support of the Plan if such liability is determined to be less than $16 billion in the aggregate. In this

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

regard, the Company's bank and bond creditor groups, for example, have continued to assert that such aggregate liability approximates the amount of Owens Corning's existing reserves. It is therefore anticipated that the number and estimated aggregate value of current and future asbestos personal injury claims will ultimately be determined as a result of negotiations involving the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants, the Legal Representative of the class of future asbestos claimants and other interested constituencies or, if necessary, by the Bankruptcy Court. It is not possible to predict the outcome of such negotiations or court determination at this time. The ultimate determination of such liabilities will take into account numerous factors not present in the Company's pre-petition environment. Such factors include the claims of competing creditor groups as to the appropriate treatment of their allowed claims in the plan or plans of reorganization, the size of the total asbestos liability, the total number of present asbestos claims allowed, the total amount of future asbestos claims allowed, and the impact of the Administrative Consolidation. In light of the above, at this time Owens Corning is unable to predict what the treatment of funds held in the Fibreboard Settlement Trust and in Undistributed Administrative Deposits in respect of Fibreboard claims will be under the terms of any plan or plans of reorganization ultimately confirmed.

At June 30, 2003, the approximate balances of the components of the Fibreboard asbestos-related reserve were:

			Balance
			(In billions of dollars)

Unpaid Final Settlements (NSP and other)			$ 0.4
Other Pending and Future Claims			1.9

In connection with this asbestos reserve, Owens Corning notes that:

–

The “Unpaid Final Settlements” component represented the remaining estimated cost for all asbestos personal injury claims pending against Fibreboard which were subject to final settlement agreements for which releases from claimants were obtained, and under which all other conditions to settlement had been satisfied, as of the Petition Date.

–

The “Other Pending and Future Claims” component represented the estimated cost of resolving, through the Chapter 11 process, (i) asbestos personal injury claims pending against Fibreboard which were subject to resolution under NSP Agreements but for which releases were not obtained from claimants prior to the Petition Date; (ii) all other asbestos personal injury claims pending against Fibreboard which were not subject to any settlement agreement; and (iii) future asbestos personal injury claims against Fibreboard made after the Petition Date.

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

Owens Corning believes that Fibreboard’s reserve for asbestos claims represents at least a minimum in a range of possible outcomes of the plan negotiation process as to the amount of Fibreboard’s total liability for asbestos-related claims against it as determined through the Chapter 11 process. Given the nature of the Chapter 11 proceedings, described above, Owens Corning cautions that the total asbestos-related liability ultimately established in the Chapter 11 proceedings may be either higher or lower than Fibreboard’s reserve. Owens Corning notes that it expects an ongoing high level of negotiations and information exchanges with the various creditor constituencies and other parties for the duration of the Chapter 11 proceedings. Owens Corning will continue to review Fibreboard’s asbestos reserve on a periodic basis and make such adjustments as may be appropriate. However, it is possible that Owens Corning will not be in a position to conclude that a further revision to the reserve is appropriate until significant additional developments occur during the course of the Chapter 11 Cases, including resolution by negotiation or the Bankruptcy Court of Fibreboard’s total liability for asbestos claims. Any such revision could, however, be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations in any given period.

As noted in Item A above, on May 22, 2003, the United States Senate introduced proposed legislation (S 1125, also known as the Fairness in Asbestos Injury Resolution Act of 2003 (the “FAIR Act”)) that, if enacted into law, would establish an administrative claims resolution structure through which all asbestos personal injury claims would be channeled and reviewed. The FAIR Act would also establish a national trust fund, funded through mandated contributions from defendant companies, insurance companies and existing trusts, that would be the source of compensation of all approved claims. Under the present terms of the FAIR Act, companies like Owens Corning and Fibreboard, that have filed for bankruptcy but have not yet emerged through a confirmed plan of reorganization, would be included as participants in the resolution structure.

ITEM C. – OTHER ASBESTOS-RELATED MATTERS

Other Asbestos-Related Litigation

As previously reported, the Company believes that it has spent significant amounts to resolve claims of asbestos claimants whose injuries were caused or exacerbated by cigarette smoking. Owens Corning and Fibreboard are pursuing litigation against tobacco companies (discussed below) to obtain payment of monetary damages (including punitive damages) for payments made by Owens Corning and Fibreboard to asbestos claimants who developed smoking-related diseases. There can be no assurance that any such litigation will go to trial or be successful.

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)

In October 1998, the Circuit Court for Jefferson County, Mississippi granted leave to file an amended complaint in an existing action to add claims by Owens Corning against seven tobacco companies and several other tobacco industry defendants. On June 17, 2001, the Jefferson court entered an order dismissing Owens Corning’s case in response to the defendants’ motion for summary judgment on the basis that Owens Corning’s injuries were indirect and thus too remote under Mississippi law to allow recovery. The Company has appealed such dismissal to the Supreme Court of Mississippi.

In addition to the Mississippi lawsuit, a lawsuit brought in December 1997 by Owens Corning and Fibreboard is pending in the Superior Court for Alameda County, California against the same tobacco companies. In August 2001, the defendants filed motions to dismiss Owens Corning’s and Fibreboard’s claims on the basis of the decision in the Mississippi lawsuit as well as California law. As the result of a hearing on these motions on November 20, 2001, the California court denied the motion to dismiss Fibreboard’s claims on the basis of the decision in the Mississippi lawsuit and otherwise stayed the proceeding pending the outcome of the Mississippi suit.

Insurance

During the second quarter of 2003, Owens Corning received an additional $4 million payment in respect of a previous settlement with a bankrupt insurance carrier concerning coverage for asbestos-related personal injury claims. Owens Corning received an additional $5 million payment in respect of the same settlement during the second quarter of 2002. These amounts were recorded as pre-tax income in the respective period of receipt.

As of June 30, 2003, Owens Corning’s consolidated financial statements reflect $4 million in unexhausted insurance coverage (net of deductibles and self-insured retentions) under its liability insurance policies applicable to asbestos personal injury claims. This amount represented unconfirmed potential non-products coverage with excess level insurance carriers, as to which Owens Corning had estimated its probable recoveries.

Owens Corning also has other unconfirmed potential non-products coverage with excess level carriers. Owens Corning is actively pursuing non-products insurance recoveries under these policies. In October, 2001, Owens Corning filed a lawsuit in Lucas County, Ohio, against ten excess level carriers for declaratory relief and damages for failure to make payments under its non-products insurance coverage. The amount and timing of recoveries from excess level policies will depend on the outcome of litigation or other proceedings, possible settlements of those proceedings, or other negotiations.

As previously reported, late in the second quarter of 2001, Owens Corning entered into a settlement agreement with one of its excess insurance carriers, resolving a dispute concerning coverage from such insurer for non-products asbestos-related personal injury claims. As a result, during the third quarter of 2001, the carrier funded $55 million into an escrow account to be released in conjunction with implementation of an approved plan of reorganization. The escrowed funds plus earnings are reflected on Owens Corning’s consolidated balance sheet as restricted assets, under the category “Restricted cash – asbestos and insurance related”.

Other Matters

SECURITIES LITIGATION

On or about April 30, 2001, certain of the Company’s current and former directors and officers, as well as certain underwriters, were named as defendants in a lawsuit captioned John Hancock Life Insurance Company, et al. v. Goldman, Sachs & Co., et al. in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. An amended complaint was filed by the plaintiffs on or about July 5, 2001. Owens Corning is not named in the lawsuit. The suit purports to be a securities class action on behalf of purchasers of certain unsecured debt securities of Owens Corning in offerings occurring on or about April 30, 1998 and July 23, 1998. The complaint alleges that the registration statements pursuant to which the offerings were made contained untrue and misleading statements of material fact and omitted to state material facts which were required to be stated therein and which were necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in violation of sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The amended complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages or, where appropriate, rescission of the plaintiffs’ purchases. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the action on November 20, 2001. A hearing was held on this motion on April 11, 2002, and the Court issued a decision denying the motion on August 26, 2002. The Company believes that the claim is without merit. The named defendants in this proceeding have each filed contingent indemnification claims with respect to this litigation against Owens Corning pursuant to the General Bar Date process described below.

On or about January 27, 2003, certain of the Company’s current and former directors and officers were named as defendants in a lawsuit captioned Robert Greenburg, et al. v. Glen Hiner, et al. in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Western Division. Owens Corning is not named in the lawsuit. The suit purports to be a class action for securities fraud under sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, on behalf of a class comprised of persons who purchased stock of Owens Corning during the period from September 20, 1999, through October 5, 2000. The complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages and/or, where appropriate, rescission. Subsequent to January 27, 2003, three substantially similar actions, with named plaintiffs Nicholas Radosevich, Howard E. Leppla, and William Benanchietti, respectively, were filed against the same defendants in the same court. The Company believes that these claims are without merit. The named defendants in these proceedings have each filed contingent indemnification claims with respect to this litigation against Owens Corning pursuant to the General Bar Date process described below.

GENERAL BAR DATE CLAIMS

In connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, the Bankruptcy Court set April 15, 2002 as the last date by which holders of certain pre-petition claims against the Debtors must file their claims (the “General Bar Date”). The General Bar Date does not apply to asbestos-related personal injury claims and asbestos-related wrongful death claims (other than claims for contribution, indemnity, reimbursement, or subrogation). Approximately 24,000 proofs of claim (including the claims described below under the headings “PBGC Claim” and “Tax Claim”), totaling approximately $16.1 billion, alleging a right to payment from a Debtor were filed with the Bankruptcy Court in response to the General Bar Date. For further information concerning these claims, please see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, under the heading “General Bar Date”.

PBGC CLAIM

In connection with the General Bar Date described above, the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”), an agency of the United States, has filed a claim, in the amount of approximately $458 million, in connection with statutory liability for unfunded benefit liabilities of the Owens Corning Merged Retirement Plan (the “Pension Plan”). The claim states that it is contingent upon termination of the Pension Plan. Since Owens Corning does not anticipate that the Debtors’ plan or plans of reorganization will provide for termination of the Pension Plan, it believes that this claim ultimately will become moot.

TAX CLAIM

Owens Corning’s federal income tax returns typically are audited by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) in multi-year audit cycles. The audit for the years 1992-1995 was completed in late 2000. Due to the Filing, the IRS also accelerated and completed the audit for the years ended 1996-1999 by March of 2001. As the result of these audits and unresolved issues from prior audit cycles, the IRS is asserting claims for approximately $390 million in income taxes plus interest of approximately $175 million.

Pending audit of Owens Corning’s federal income tax return for the year 2000, the IRS has also filed a protective claim in the amount of approximately $50 million, covering a tax refund received by Owens Corning for such year, plus interest.

As described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, under the heading “General Bar Date”, the United States Department of Treasury has filed proofs of claim, totaling approximately $530 million, in connection with these tax claims.

In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, Owens Corning maintains tax reserves to cover audit issues. While Owens Corning believes that the existing reserves are appropriate in light of the audit issues involved, its defenses, its prior experience in resolving audit issues, and its ability to realize certain challenged deductions in subsequent tax returns if the IRS were successful, there can be no assurance that such reserves will be sufficient. Owens Corning will continue to review its tax reserves on a periodic basis and make such adjustments as may be appropriate. Any such revision could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations in any given period.

Separately, and at the request of the Debtors’ Official Creditors’ Committee and the direction of the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors either obtained tolling agreements from, or filed actions against, approximately 115 law firms that entered into NSP or non-NSP agreements with the Debtors on behalf of claimants asserting asbestos-related personal injury or wrongful death claims. Lawsuits were brought against the 11 law firms that did not sign tolling agreements, seeking two forms of relief: (a) first, a declaratory judgment as to whether payments made, or obligations incurred, under NSP and non-NSP agreements were in exchange for reasonably equivalent value; and (b) second, in the event reasonably equivalent value was not received, the recovery or avoidance of payments made and obligations incurred under the relevant NSP and non-NSP agreements pursuant to applicable state and federal fraudulent conveyance law. The Official Creditors’ Committee was named as a defendant in such lawsuits, solely with respect to the declaratory relief sought.

10. FIBREBOARD SETTLEMENT TRUST

Under the Insurance Settlement described in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, two of Fibreboard’s insurers provided $1.873 billion during the fourth quarter of 1999 to fund the costs of resolving pending and future Fibreboard asbestos-related liabilities. As of June 30, 2003, the remaining Insurance Settlement funds were held in and invested by the Fibreboard Settlement Trust (the “Trust”). On an ongoing basis, the funds held in the Trust will be subject to investment earnings/losses and will be reduced if and as applied to satisfy Fibreboard asbestos-related liabilities. Under the terms of the Trust, any Trust assets that ultimately are not used to fund Fibreboard’s asbestos-related liabilities must be distributed to charity. Based on currently available information, Owens Corning does not believe that any such assets will remain for distribution at the conclusion of the Chapter 11 cases.

The Trust is a qualified settlement fund for federal income tax purposes, and is taxed separately from Owens Corning on its net taxable income, after deduction for related administrative expenses.

At this time, Owens Corning is unable to predict what the treatment of the Fibreboard Settlement Trust will ultimately be under the terms of any plan or plans of reorganization.

General Accounting Treatment

The assets of the Trust are comprised of cash and marketable securities (collectively, the “Trust Assets”) and, with Fibreboard’s Undistributed Administrative Deposits, are reflected on Owens Corning’s consolidated balance sheet as restricted assets. At June 30, 2003, these assets were reflected as non-current assets, under the category “Restricted cash, securities and other – Fibreboard”. Owens Corning estimates a reserve for Fibreboard in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles to reflect asbestos-related liabilities (see Note 9, Part B, to the Consolidated Financial Statements). As of June 30, 2003, these liabilities were one of the items included in Owens Corning’s consolidated balance sheet under the category “Liabilities Subject to Compromise”. For periods prior to the Petition Date, they were reflected as current or other liabilities (depending on the period in which payment was expected) under the category “Asbestos-related liabilities – Fibreboard”. At June 30, 2003, the Consolidated Financial Statements reflect Fibreboard’s reserve for asbestos litigation claims at $2.309 billion.

For accounting purposes, the Trust Assets are classified as “trading securities” and are reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”. Accordingly, marketable securities classified as trading securities are recorded at fair market value.

Through the third quarter of 2002, any unrealized increase/decrease in fair market value was reflected as a change in the carrying amount of the asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as well as other income/expense on the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). Subsequent to the third quarter of 2002, any unrealized increase/decrease in fair market value is reflected as an increase/decrease in the carrying amount of such assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as well as a decrease/increase in Chapter 11 related reorganization items on the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)

10. FIBREBOARD SETTLEMENT TRUST (continued)

Through the third quarter of 2002, any earnings and realized gains/losses on the Trust Assets were reflected as an increase/decrease in the carrying amount of such assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as well as other income/expense on the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). Subsequent to the third quarter of 2002, any earnings and realized gains/losses are reflected as an increase/decrease in the carrying amount of such assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as well as a decrease/increase in Chapter 11 related reorganization items on the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). Cost for purposes of computing realized gains/losses is determined using the specific identification method.

Through the third quarter of 2002, the residual obligation to charity, included in liabilities subject to compromise on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, increased/decreased with the related decrease/increase to other expense/income on the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). As of September 30, 2002, the residual obligation to charity was reclassified to Fibreboard’s reserve for asbestos litigation claims as the liability exceeded the Trust Assets, thus no amounts were recorded to the residual obligation to charity subsequent to that date.

Results for the Periods Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002

During the second quarter of 2003 and 2002, Trust Assets generated interest/dividend earnings of approximately $15 million and $13 million, respectively ($29 million and $26 million, respectively, for the first six months of the year). The $15 million generated in the second quarter of 2003 and the $29 million generated during the six months ended June 30, 2003 were recorded in Chapter 11 related reorganization items in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). The $13 million generated during the second quarter of 2002 and the $26 million generated during the six months ended June 30, 2002 were recorded as an increase in the carrying amount of the assets on Owens Corning’s Consolidated Balance Sheet and as other income on the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). The income generated in the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002 was offset by equal charges to other expense in the relevant period, which represented an increase in the residual liability to charity.

During the second quarter of 2003 and 2002, the fair market value adjustment for those securities designated as trading securities resulted in an unrealized loss of approximately $1 million and an unrealized gain of $19 million, respectively (a loss of $6 million and a gain of $10 million, respectively, for the first six months of the year), recorded as a change in the carrying amount of the assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The $1 million loss generated during the second quarter of 2003 and the $6 million loss generated during the six months ended June 30, 2003 were recorded as Chapter 11 related reorganization items on the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). The $19 million gain generated during the second quarter of 2002 and the $10 million gain generated during the six months ended June 20, 2002 were reflected as other income on the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). The gains generated in the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002 were offset by equal charges to other expense in the relevant period, which represented an increase in the residual obligation to charity.

As a result of the Filing, there were no payments for asbestos litigation claims from the Trust during the quarter or six months ended June 30, 2003 or 2002. However, approximately $1 million was paid during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002 for taxes related to earnings of the Trust. No payments were made for taxes during the quarter or six months ended June 30, 2003. The payment made during the second quarter of 2002 was funded by existing cash in the Trust or proceeds from the sale of securities. The sale of securities resulted in a realized loss of approximately $1 million during each of the second quarters of 2003 and 2002 (a loss of $2 million and $1 million, respectively, during the first six months of such years). Realized gains or losses from the sale of securities are reflected on the Company’s financial statements in the same manner as actual returns on Trust Assets, described above.

At June 30, 2003, the fair value of Trust Assets and Administrative Deposits was $1.385 billion, which was comprised of Trust Assets of $1.258 billion of marketable securities and Administrative Deposits of $127 million.

11. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (SFAS No. 142), to account for goodwill and other intangibles. SFAS No. 142 requires an annual review for impairment using a fair value methodology. The Company completed its annual review for impairment as of April 1, 2003, which resulted in no change to the recorded goodwill.

The Company applied SFAS No. 142 beginning in the first quarter of 2002, which required the Company to cease amortizing goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles. The Company has no recorded indefinite-lived intangibles, separately identified. In addition, the Company tested goodwill for impairment using the two-step process prescribed in SFAS No. 142. Based on this analysis, the January 1, 2002 carrying value of the goodwill in these reporting units exceeded their implied fair value by $491 million, resulting in a non-cash charge of $491 million ($441 million net of tax). This charge was determined during the second quarter of 2002 and, as required by SFAS No. 142, was recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of 2002.

To maintain a consistent basis for measurement of performance, the Company reclassified previously reported segment information related to goodwill and total assets to correspond to the earnings measurements by which the businesses are evaluated. Accordingly, approximately $15 million of goodwill as of January 1, 2002, was reclassified to the Building Materials Systems segment from the Composite Solutions segment.

13. LEASES

During the second quarter of 2003, the Company took various actions with the collective effect of reducing its effective cost of occupying its World Headquarters, including (1) renegotiation of the lease structure of the facility, including extension of the lease term, reduction of the payments and modification of the end-of-term purchase option, resulting in a classification change from an operating lease to a capital lease, (2) purchase of certain bonds issued by the lessor (the “Bonds”) in connection with the initial financing of the facility, and (3) obtaining a legal right of offset, which allows the Company to apply interest/principal receipts due it under the Bonds toward its lease liability. Classifying the lease as a capital lease resulted in (1) the recording of a lease liability of approximately $39 million, (2) the reduction of the previously recorded prepaid rent attributable to the original operating lease by approximately $45 million, and (3) the recording of building and furniture at a total value of approximately $84 million.

The Bonds, which had a par value at the purchase date of approximately $53 million, were purchased in exchange for cash payments totaling approximately $32 million. Such payments resulted in the Company reducing the lease liability by the $32 million. Also as part of the agreement, the Company allowed the selling bondholders a claim in its Chapter 11 proceedings of approximately $21 million related to the discount on the purchase of the Bonds. The Company recorded a liability Subject to Compromise in its Consolidated Balance Sheet and a Chapter 11 related reorganization item in its Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss) related to this claim.

14. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”. This statement requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The effect of adoption was not material to the Company, and the prospective effects of adoption are not expected to be material to the Company.

Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections as of April 2002". This Statement (1) rescinds FASB Statement No. 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt”, FASB Statement No. 64, “Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements”, and FASB Statement No. 44, “Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers”, (2) amends FASB Statement No. 13, “Accounting for Leases”, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions, and (3) amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The effect of adoption was not material to the Company.

Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)". This Statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value only when the liability is incurred. The effect of adoption was not material to the Company, however, prospectively the timing of related future charges may be different than those recorded in prior periods.

In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor´s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others – an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34". This Interpretation clarifies disclosures that are required to be made for certain guarantees at the time the guarantees are issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. Effective December 31, 2002, the Company adopted the disclosure requirements in this Interpretation, including those relating to warranty obligations. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of this Interpretation on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The effect of adoption was not material to the Company, and the prospective effects of adoption are not expected to be material to the Company.

Effective July 1, 2003, the Company will adopt the provisions of this interpretation which requires the primary beneficiary in a variable interest entity to consolidate the entity, even if the primary beneficiary does not have a majority voting interest, for variable interest entities existing prior to January 31, 2003. Effective January 31, 2003, the Company adopted the consolidation requirements of this Interpretation for any variable interest entity created on or after that date. Effective December 31, 2002, the Company adopted the requirements of this interpretation for entities to disclose information regarding guarantees or exposures to loss relating to any variable interest entity existing prior to January 31, 2003 in financial statements issued after January 31, 2003. The effect of adoption was not material to the Company, and the prospective effects of adoption are not expected to be material to the Company.

In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. The provisions of SFAS No. 149 are generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The effect of adoption was not material to the Company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Business Overview

Owens Corning is committed to investing in our businesses and providing quality products to our customers. The Company is also committed to engaging our employees to provide outstanding service and support for our customers and world-class performance.

Owens Corning’s strategy also includes the divestiture of non-strategic businesses and the realignment of existing businesses. During the second quarter of 2003, the Company completed the sales of its metal systems and mineral wool businesses. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning these sales. These businesses were identified for sale as part of the Company’s strategic restructuring program discussed below in “Restructuring of Operations and Other Charges” and in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. As discussed above under “The Plan of Reorganization”, the Company intends to effect an internal restructuring in order to adopt a holding company structure. This internal restructuring is expected to be refined further as steps are taken to implement it.

Key factors affecting the Company’s Building Materials markets include interest rates, new housing starts, and remodeling activity. Despite the weakness in the overall economy, the historically low interest rates experienced in recent periods have contributed to relative strength in new housing starts and demand for the Company’s Building Materials products. If interest rates rise, it is likely that housing starts and demand for Building Materials products would be negatively impacted. In addition, higher energy and material costs will cause pressure on margins.

Key factors affecting the Company’s Composite Solutions markets include the condition of automotive markets and foreign exchange rates. In this segment, the Company forecasts that s low markets in North America and Europe will combine for minimal growth in 2003 compared to 2002. In addition, overcapacity in the global market will contribute to price pressure on the Composite Solutions business, while higher energy and material costs will cause continuing pressure on margins.

Late in the second quarter of 2003, the Company experienced a labor stoppage at its Korean composites facility as the result of a general action taken by a national union to impact labor activity throughout Korea. While this work stoppage had minimal effect on results for the second quarter, if it were to continue it may have a material impact on Composite Solutions results in future periods.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Sales and Profitability for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002

NET SALES

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 were $1.239 billion, a 4% decrease from the second quarter of 2002 level of $1.285 billion. The lower sales in the second quarter of 2003 compared to 2002 reflect lower volumes in both Building Materials and Composite Solutions, primarily in the United States. In Building Materials, volume was down primarily in our residential roofing business, partially offset by higher pricing, which was implemented in response to higher material costs, primarily asphalt. In addition, sales were negatively impacted by the sale of our metal systems business in May of 2003, discussed below under “Restructuring of Operations and Other Charges”. In Composite Solutions, volume and price were down in nearly all geographic regions, the result of the weaker global economy. In addition, Composite Solutions sales reflect a decrease due to the exiting of some non-strategic product lines. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates increased net sales in the second quarter of 2003 by 1%. This phenomenon primarily reflects the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro, which benefited the net sales of Composite Solutions.

Sales outside the United States represented 15% of total sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, compared to 13% during the second quarter of 2002. The increase was primarily attributable to lower sales in the United States and the favorable changes in foreign currency exchange rate described above.

GROSS MARGIN

Gross margin for the second quarter of 2003 was 17% of net sales, compared to 19% in 2002. The decrease as a percentage of sales was primarily the result of higher energy and material costs negatively impacting all major businesses and lower prices in Composite Solutions, partially offset by the higher pricing in our residential roofing business. The higher raw material and energy costs were mainly attributable to increased costs of asphalt, PVC, and natural gas. Gross margin during the second quarter of 2003 benefited from a gain of approximately $6 million resulting from the settlement of certain vendor payables at a discount.

MARKETING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Marketing and administrative expenses were $116 million and 9% of net sales during the second quarter of 2003, compared to $144 million and 11% of net sales during the second quarter of 2002. The decrease is primarily attributable to cost-cutting measures entered into during 2002 and the beginning of 2003. Please see Restructuring of Operations and Other Charges below for further information on the cost-cutting measures taken.

INCOME FROM OPERATIONS

On a comparative basis, income from operations decreased to $43 million for the second quarter of 2003, from $70 million in 2002. The decrease was primarily the result of the lower gross margin, offset in part by reduced marketing and administrative expenses. Other factors contributing to the decrease were higher Chapter 11 related reorganization expenses and a loss on the sale of the Company’s metal systems business.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

INCOME TAXES

The Company currently projects that its effective tax rate for the full year 2003 will be 49%, compared to 1% for the full year 2002. In the third quarter of 2002, the Company increased its asbestos-related reserves through charges to income of $1.381 billion for Owens Corning asbestos-related liabilities and $975 million for Fibreboard asbestos-related liabilities, for an aggregate charge of $2.356 billion (See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). In connection with such charges, management evaluated the amount of deferred tax assets attributable to such charges and also assessed the likelihood of realization of such deferred tax assets in light of the Company’s financial position and the Chapter 11 proceedings. As the result of such assessment, management determined that, as of September 30, 2002, a valuation allowance was required for the full amount of such attributable deferred tax assets. As a result, no tax benefit was recorded in connection with the third quarter 2002 asbestos-related charges discussed above.

NET INCOME

For the second quarter of 2003 and 2002, Owens Corning reported net income of $18 million, or $0.30 per share, and $36 million, or $0.65 per share, respectively. The decrease in 2003 was primarily due to the factors described above. The Company had no net interest expense in the second quarter of 2003 (from the Petition Date through June 30, 2003, contractual interest expense not accrued or recorded on pre-petition debt totaled $426 million, of which $32 million relates to the second quarter of 2003 and $35 million relates to the second quarter of 2002 (please see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements)).

Sales and Profitability for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002

NET SALES

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $2.372 billion, a 1% decrease from the 2002 level of $2.392 billion. Net sales were lower in both Building Materials Systems and Composite Solutions. In Building Materials, volume was lower in roofing, asphalt and vinyl siding, reflecting weaker economic conditions, primarily in the United States. In addition, comparative sales for Building Materials were negatively impacted by the sale of our metals systems business in May of 2003. Most of the negative volume impact was offset by higher pricing in our residential roofing and asphalt product lines, all in response to higher material costs. In Composite Solutions, sales were negatively impacted by both lower volume and prices in the U.S., Europe, and Canada. In addition, net sales also reflect a decrease due to the exiting of some product lines in the Composite Solutions business. Changes in foreign currency increased net sales in the first six months of 2003 by 1%. This revenue growth primarily reflects the benefit of the U.S. dollar weakening relative to the Euro, which mainly benefited our Composite Solutions net sales results.

Sales outside the United States represented 15% of total sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to 14% during the first six months of 2002. The increase was primarily attributable to the factors discussed above lowering sales in the United States and the favorable foreign currency effects.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

GROSS MARGIN

Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was 16% of net sales, compared to 17% in 2002. The decrease was primarily the result of higher energy and material costs negatively impacting all major businesses and lower prices in Composite Solutions, partially offset by manufacturing productivity improvements in our insulation business and higher pricing in our residential roofing business. The higher raw material and energy costs were mainly attributable to increased costs of asphalt, PVC, and natural gas. Also contributing to the decrease was a $28 million charge representing an additional write-down of two groups of assets in the Building Materials segment to net realizable value in the first quarter of 2003, discussed below under “Restructuring of Operations and Other Charges”. Gross margin during the period benefited from the gain of approximately $6 million resulting from the settlement of certain vendor payables at a discount.

MARKETING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Marketing and administrative expenses were $230 million and 10% of net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $271 million and 11% of net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease is primarily attributable to cost-cutting measures entered into during 2002 and the beginning of 2003. Please see Restructuring of Operations and Other Charges below for further information on the cost-cutting measures taken.

INCOME FROM OPERATIONS

On a comparative basis, income from operations decreased to $51 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $73 million in 2002. The decrease was primarily the result of the lower gross margin, offset in part by reduced marketing and administrative expenses. Other factors contributing to the decrease were higher Chapter 11 related reorganization expenses and a loss on the sale of the Company’s metal systems business.

NET INCOME

For the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, Owens Corning reported net income of $17 million, or $0.30 per share, and a net loss of $411 million, or $7.47 per share, respectively. In addition to the items discussed above, the increase reflected a non-cash charge of $491 million ($441 million net of tax) recorded in the first quarter of 2002 as the result of the Company’s adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, effective January 1, 2002. Please see “Accounting Changes” below for additional information. Net interest expense was $4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 (from the Petition Date through June 30, 2003, contractual interest expense not accrued or recorded on pre-petition debt totaled $426 million, of which $64 million relates to the six months ended June 30, 2003 and $71 million relates to the six months ended June 30, 2002 (please see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements)).

RESTRUCTURING OF OPERATIONS AND OTHER CHARGES

Ongoing Business Review

In connection with the Chapter 11 proceedings and the development of a plan or plans of reorganization, the Company initiated a comprehensive strategic review of its businesses. As a result of that review, the Company anticipates that additional restructuring and similar charges, including asset impairment and wind-up costs, may be identified and recorded during the remainder of 2003 and periods beyond. Such charges could be material to the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company in any given period. In addition, Owens Corning notes that certain of its businesses are operated wholly or in part through subsidiary entities. To the extent that any restructuring or similar charges impact such subsidiary entities, the financial condition or results of operations of such subsidiary entities, and potentially other entities holding obligations of such subsidiary entities, may be adversely impacted, perhaps materially.

LEASES

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND OTHER RELATED MATTERS

Cash flow from operations was negative $22 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, versus negative $105 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The change in cash flow from operations was primarily driven by working capital items. Cash flow from operations in the six months ended June 30, 2003 also reflects a restructuring agreement with the financial institution responsible for an Asian credit facility to certain subsidiaries of the Company, guaranteed by Owens Corning. As a result of this agreement, the Company recorded (1) an increase of approximately $22 million in debt subject to compromise for an allowed guarantee claim and (2) a reduction of debt of approximately $4 million.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

At June 30, 2003, our net working capital was $1,027 million and we had a current ratio of 2.23, compared to $913 million and 2.06, respectively, at December 31, 2002. The increase in working capital from December 31, 2002 to June 30, 2003 primarily reflects:

–
–
–
–

  cash from current operations
  an increase in inventory due to normal seasonal trends
  an increase in receivables due to normal seasonal trends
  proceeds of approximately $61 million from the sales of businesses discussed above in “Restructuring of Operations and
Other Charges”

partially offset by:

–	a payment of approximately $32 million to purchase bonds underlying the Company’s World Headquarters facility, which was accounted for as a reduction of debt, discussed above under “Leases”

Investing activities consumed $23 million of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $99 million during the six months ended June 30, 2002. The change in net cash flow from investing activities was primarily attributable to:

– –	a decrease in spending for additions to plant and equipment proceeds of approximately $61 million from the sales of businesses discussed above in “Restructuring of Operations and Other Charges”

We anticipate that 2003 spending for capital and investments will be approximately $256 million, a portion of which is uncommitted. We expect that these expenditures will be funded from the Company’s operations and existing cash on hand.

Financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2003 resulted in a use of cash of $39 million compared to a use of cash of $17 million during the six months ended June 30, 2002. The change in net cash flow from financing activities was primarily attributable to:

–

   reductions of long term debt during 2003, primarily reflecting a payment of approximately $32 million to purchase bonds
   underlying the Company’s World Headquarters facility, which was accounted for as a reduction of debt discussed
   above under “Leases”, and the payment of approximately $16 million to reduce debt outstanding in India.

partially offset by:

–	reduction of subject to compromise financing activities in the first six months of 2002, reflecting an $18 million application of funds previously subject to administrative freeze to satisfy certain pre-petition indebtedness.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

At June 30, 2003, the Company had $807 million of Cash and Cash Equivalents as compared to $875 million at December 31, 2002. The decline reflects normal seasonal changes in working capital.

At June 30, 2003, we had $2.875 billion of borrowings subject to compromise and $174 million of other borrowings (of which $75 million were in default as a consequence of the Filing and therefore classified as current on the Consolidated Balance Sheet). At June 30, 2002, we had $2.831 billion of borrowings subject to compromise and $114 million of other borrowings (of which $97 million were in default as a consequence of the Filing and therefore classified as current on the Consolidated Balance Sheet).

The Company has significant liabilities related to pension plans for its employees. The Company has reviewed its assumptions related to the valuation of this liability, including the rate of return on pension plan assets and the discount rate on the liability compared to actual results to date. This resulted in management changing its assumptions for 2003, which will contribute to an increase in the pension plan expense of approximately $29 million in 2003 as compared to 2002. In addition, the actual decrease in the market value of assets during 2002 and lower interest rates will likely result in the Company making contributions to the pension plans of approximately $250 million during 2003. The Company also currently projects additional contributions in the range of $150 million to $200 million during 2004. The Company’s recorded long-term pension plan liability increased to $525 million at June 30, 2003, from $500 million at December 31, 2002, primarily as the result of additional service cost, interest cost accrued and amortization of prior actuarial losses, partially offset by return on plan assets during 2003. The ultimate cash flow impact to the Company, if any, of the pension plan liability, and the timing of any such impact, will depend on numerous variables, including future changes in actuarial assumptions and market conditions.

In connection with the Filing, the Debtors obtained a $500 million debtor-in-possession credit facility from a group of lenders led by Bank of America, N.A. (the “DIP Financing”), which was originally scheduled to expire November 15, 2002. Effective October 31, 2002, the DIP Financing was amended to, among other things, reduce the maximum available credit amount to $250 million and extend the scheduled expiration to November 15, 2004. There were no borrowings outstanding under the DIP financing at June 30, 2003, however, approximately $83 million of the availability under this credit facility was utilized as a result of the issuance of standby letters of credit and similar uses.

The Company believes, based on information presently available to it, that its cash and cash equivalents, cash available from operations, and the DIP Financing will provide sufficient liquidity to allow it to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future. However, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern (including its ability to meet post-petition obligations of the Debtors and to meet obligations of the Non-Debtor Subsidiaries) and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis for its financial statements are dependent upon, among other things, (i) the Company’s ability to comply with the terms of the DIP Financing and any cash management order entered by the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, (ii) the ability of the Company to maintain adequate cash on hand, (iii) the ability of the Company to generate cash from operations, (iv) the ability of the Non-Debtor Subsidiaries to obtain necessary financing, (v) confirmation of a plan or plans of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code, and (vi) the Company’s ability to achieve profitability following such confirmation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

ACCOUNTING CHANGES

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”), which it uses to account for goodwill and other intangible assets. SFAS No. 142 eliminates the amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets; identifiable intangible assets with a determinable useful life will continue to be amortized. SFAS No. 142 requires an annual review for impairment using a fair value methodology. The Company completed its annual review for impairment as of April 1, 2003, which resulted in no change to the recorded goodwill. The impact of adoption resulted in a non-cash charge of $491 million ($441 million net of tax). This charge was determined during the second quarter of 2002 and, as required by SFAS No. 142, was recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of 2002. The goodwill recorded in the December 31, 2001 financial statements, which included the $491 million described above, was supported by the undiscounted estimated future cash flow of the related operations in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of”. See Note 11 to Owens Corning’s Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123". Effective December 31, 2002, the Company adopted the amendments to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”) provided in paragraphs 2(a)-2(e) of this Statement. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the amendment to SFAS No. 123 provided in paragraph 2(f) of this Statement, and the amendment to Opinion 28 provided in paragraph 3. The effect of adoption was not material to the Company. Please see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning Stock Compensation.

In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. The provision of SFAS No. 149 are generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated are June 30, 2003. The effect of adoption will not be material to the Company.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The Company has been deemed by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) to be a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) with respect to certain sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“Superfund”). The Company has also been deemed a PRP under similar state or local laws. In other instances, other PRPs have brought suits against the Company as a PRP for contribution under such federal, state or local laws. At June 30, 2003, a total of 57 such PRP designations remained unresolved by the Company. In most cases, the Company is only one of many PRPs with potential liability for investigation and remediation at the applicable site. The Company is also involved with environmental investigation or remediation at a number of other sites at which it has not been designated a PRP.

– 67 –

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

The Company estimates a reserve in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles to reflect environmental liabilities that have been asserted or are probable of assertion, in which liabilities are probable and reasonably estimable. At June 30, 2003, the Company’s reserve for such liabilities was $24 million. In connection with the Filing, the Company initiated a program to identify and discharge contingent environmental liabilities as part of its plan or plans of reorganization. Under the program, the Company is seeking settlements, subject to approval of the Bankruptcy Court, with various federal, state and local authorities, as well as private claimants. On July 23, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court approved one such settlement agreement with the United States resolving certain environmental liabilities with respect to the EPA. The Company continues to review its environmental reserve in light of such program and make such adjustments as may be appropriate.

The 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (“Act”) provide that the EPA will issue regulations on a number of air pollutants over a period of years. The EPA issued final regulations for wool fiberglass and mineral wool in June 1999, for amino/phenolic resin in January 2000 and for wet formed glass mat in June 2002. The Company anticipates that other sources to be regulated will be asphalt processing and roofing, open molded fiber-reinforced plastics, and large burners and boilers. Based on information now known to the Company, including the nature and limited number of regulated materials Owens Corning emits, we do not expect the Act to have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or long-term liquidity.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Please refer to the Company’s 2002 annual report on Form 10-K for the Company’s quantitative and qualitative disclosure about market risk.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains (a) disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis, and (b) internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

The referenced Chapter 11 cases do not include any other United States or foreign subsidiaries of Owens Corning (collectively, the “Non-Debtor Subsidiaries”).

In late 2001, the asbestos-related Chapter 11 cases pending in the District of Delaware (the Chapter 11 Cases of Owens Corning and the cases of Armstrong World Industries, Inc., W. R. Grace & Co., Federal-Mogul Global, Inc., and USG Corporation) were ordered transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the “District Court”) before Judge Alfred M. Wolin to facilitate development and implementation of a coordinated plan for management (the “Administrative Consolidation”). The District Court has entered an order referring the Chapter 11 Cases back to the USBC, where they were previously pending, subject to its ongoing right to withdraw such referral with respect to any proceedings or issues (the applicable court from time to time responsible for any particular aspect of the Chapter 11 Cases being hereinafter referred to as the “Bankruptcy Court”).

The Company anticipates that substantially all liabilities of the Debtors as of the date of the Filing will be resolved under one or more Chapter 11 plans of reorganization to be proposed and voted on in the Chapter 11 Cases in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. As a consequence of the Filing, all pending litigation against the Debtors is stayed automatically by section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and, absent further order of the Bankruptcy Court, no party may take any action to recover on pre-petition claims against the Debtors. Please see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

On January 17, 2003, the Debtors, together with the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants and the Legal Representative for the class of future asbestos claimants, filed a proposed joint plan of reorganization in the USBC. The same proponents filed a proposed amended joint plan of reorganization in the USBC on March 28, 2003, a proposed second amended joint plan of reorganization in the USBC on May 23, 2003, and a proposed third amended joint plan of reorganization (as so amended through such third amendment, the “Plan”) in the USBC on August 8, 2003. The Plan is subject to confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court. Owens Corning believes that it is likely that the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan will be the subject of continuing negotiations or litigation to resolve differences among the creditor constituencies as to their treatment. Accordingly, Owens Corning is unable to predict at this time

– 69 –

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS (continued)

what the treatment of creditors and equity holders of the respective Debtors will ultimately be under any plan or plans of reorganization finally confirmed. The current Plan provides for partial payment of all unsecured creditors’ claims, in the form of distributions of new common stock and notes of the reorganized company, and cash. Additional distributions from potential insurance and other third-party claims may also be paid to certain classes of unsecured creditors, but it is expected that all classes of pre-petition unsecured creditors will be impaired. Therefore, the Plan also provides that the existing common stock of Owens Corning will be cancelled, and that current shareholders will receive no distribution or other consideration in exchange for their shares. It is impossible to predict at this time the terms and provisions of any plan or plans of reorganization that may ultimately be confirmed, when a plan or plans of reorganization will be confirmed, or the treatment of creditors thereunder. The Plan is discussed in greater detail in Note 1, Voluntary Petition for Relief Under Chapter 11, to Owens Corning’s Consolidated Financial Statements above.

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

As a consequence of the Filing and the impact of certain provisions of the Company’s DIP Financing and in a cash management order entered by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictions, including on their ability to pay dividends and to transfer cash and other assets to each other and to their affiliates. See Note 1, Voluntary Petition for Relief Under Chapter 11, to Owens Corning’s Consolidated Financial Statements above. Also see Part II, Item 1, above.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

Substantially all of the Company’s pre-petition debt is now in default due to the Filing. See Note 1, Voluntary Petition for Relief Under Chapter 11, to Owens Corning’s Consolidated Financial Statements above. As described in Note 1, the Consolidated Financial Statements present the Debtors’ pre-petition debt under the caption “Liabilities Subject to Compromise.” This includes debt under the Pre-Petition Credit Facility and approximately $1.4 billion of other outstanding debt. As required by SOP 90-7, at the Petition Date the Company recorded the Debtors’ pre-petition debt instruments at the allowed amount, as defined by SOP 90-7. The Consolidated Financial Statements present pre-petition debt of Non-Debtor Subsidiaries that is in default due to the Filing, in the amount of approximately $75 million as of June 30, 2003, as current on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
