Item  1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


         a.  Business Development

         On  December 3, 1993,  Keene  Corporation  ("Keene")  filed a voluntary
petition for relief  under  Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United State Code (the
"Bankruptcy  Code")  in the  United  States  Bankruptcy  Court  in the  Southern
District  of New York  (the  "Bankruptcy  Court"),  Case No.  93-B-46090  (SMB).
Keene's  Chapter  11  filing  came as a direct  result of tens of  thousands  of
asbestos-related lawsuits which named Keene as a party.
         On  March  28,  1995,  Keene,  the  Official  Committee  of   Unsecured
Creditors' and the Legal Representative  for  Future  Claimants  entered  into a
stipulation  to  file  a consensual plan  of reorganization  that would  resolve
Keene's Chapter 11 Case.
         On March 11,  1996, the Bankruptcy Court approved  the  Second  Amended
Disclosure Statement regarding Keene's Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization for
solicitation.
         On June 12, 1996, the Bankruptcy Court and the U.S. District Court held
a confirmation hearing on  Keene's Fourth  Amended  Plan of  Reorganization,  as
modified (the  "Plan").  The Plan was  confirmed by the U.S.  District  Court by
order entered on June 14, 1996.
         On July  31,  1996,  Keene's Fourth  Amended Plan of Reorganization, as
modified, became effective (the "Effective Date").On the Effective Date, Keene's
wholly-owned subsidiary,  Reinhold Industries, Inc. ("Reinhold") was merged into
and with  Keene,  with Keene  becoming  the  surviving  entity.  Pursuant to the
merger,  all the issued and outstanding  capital stock of Reinhold was canceled.
Keene, as the surviving  corporation of the merger, was renamed Reinhold. On the

<PAGE>

Effective  Date,  Reinhold  issued  2,000,000  shares of Common Stock,  of which
1,020,000  shares  of Class B Common  Stock  were  issued to the  Trustees  of a
Creditors' Trust (the "Creditors'  Trust") set up to administer Keene's asbestos
claims.  The remaining 980,000 shares,  identified as Class A Common Stock, were
issued to Keene's former  shareholders  as of record date, June 30, 1996. All of
Keene's previously outstanding Common Stock was canceled.
         Keene was incorporated in Delaware in 1967,  reincorporated in New York
in 1979 and  reincorporated  in Delaware in 1990.  The Common Stock of Keene was
listed on the New York Stock Exchange from 1972 to 1981. In 1981, Keene became a
direct wholly owned subsidiary of Bairnco Corporation  ("Bairnco") pursuant to a
corporate  restructuring.   On  August  6,  1990,  100%  of  Keene's  stock  was
distributed to the shareholders of Bairnco.
         Keene's  asbestos-related  liabilities  stem  entirely  from  its  1968
purchase of  Baldwin-Ehret-Hill,  Inc.  ("BEH"),  a  manufacturer  of acoustical
ceilings, ventilation systems, and thermal insulation products. Over the past 20
years, Keene spent over $530 million (approximately 75% of which has been in the
form of insurance proceeds) in connection with Asbestos-Related  Claims asserted
against Keene on behalf of tens of thousands of  individuals  and entities,  all
stemming from Keene's  ownership,  for a period of approximately  five years, of
BEH.
         By the  end of  1992,  Keene  had  exhausted  substantially  all of its
insurance  coverage for  Asbestos-Related  Personal  Injury  Claims and by 1993,
Keene had exhausted  substantially  all of its insurance  related to Asbestos In
Building Claims. Therefore, Keene had to bear directly the costs of all Claims.
         In May 1993, Keene filed a limited fund,  mandatory  settlement  action
("Limited  Fund  Action").  This Limited Fund Action sought a  declaration  that
Keene had only limited funds available to resolve the numerous  Asbestos-Related
Claims against it, including  Asbestos-Related Claims that might be filed in the
future.


<PAGE>


         In November  1993,  Keene  reached an agreement  in principle  with the
lawyers  representing  each subclass  with respect to the  allocation of Keene's
remaining  assets.  However,  on December 1, 1993,  the Court of Appeals for the
Second  Circuit  issued a decision  dismissing  the  Limited  Fund Action on the
grounds of lack of subject matter jurisdiction.
         In light of this  decision,  on  December  3,  1993,  Keene  filed  its
voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11.
         In 1984, Keene acquired the assets, and assumed certain liabilities, of
Reinhold,  which was  operated as a division  until  October  1990,  when it was
incorporated  in  Delaware as a wholly  owned  subsidiary.  Reinhold,  which was
originally founded in 1928 as a custom molder of thermosetting and thermoplastic
materials,  currently  operates in Santa Fe Springs,  California  and Camarillo,
California. Today, Reinhold manufactures advanced composite components and sheet
molding   compounds  for  a  variety  of  aerospace,   defense  and   commercial
applications.  To  strengthen  its  market  position  in defense  and  aerospace
markets,  in March 1992,  Reinhold acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock
of Reynolds & Taylor, Inc. ("R & T"), a California  corporation and manufacturer
of structural composite components serving, primarily, the defense and aerospace
markets. R & T's operations were consolidated into Reinhold's existing facility.
In May 1994, Reinhold acquired CompositAir.  CompositAir is a niche manufacturer
of  commercial  composite  aircraft  seatbacks  and other  commercial  products.
CompositAir  operates  in both  Camarillo,  California  and  Santa  Fe  Springs,
California.

         b.  Business of Issuer

Products
         Reinhold's   operations   consist  of  the  manufacturing  of  advanced
composite  components  and sheet  molding  compounds for a variety of aerospace,
defense and  commercial  applications.  Reinhold's  principal  products  include
ablative  composite  components and structural  composite  components.  Ablative
composites are used for heat absorbing properties and structural  composites are
used where lightness, strength and complex shapes are essential. Composites have
certain  properties  superior to metals,  and are formed into  components  which
replace metal  components in  applications  where light weight,  strength,  heat
absorption, corrosion resistance and complex shapes are required, such as rocket
nozzles,  lighting fixture housings,  small water filtration system housings and
aircraft seating frames. Distribution
         Composites  are   marketed  by  company   sales  personnel   and  sales
representatives  in the United States and Europe.

Competition
         Reinhold  competes  with many  companies  in the sale of  ablative  and
structural composite components.  The markets served by Reinhold are specialized
and competitive.  Several of its competitors have greater  financial,  technical
and  operating   resources  than  Reinhold.   Although   Reinhold  has  competed
successfully in the critical areas of price, product performance and engineering
support  services,  there is no assurance that Reinhold will be able to continue
to manufacture and sell its products profitably in competitive markets.


<PAGE>


         Because a  substantial  portion of  Reinhold's  business  has been as a
supplier to government  contractors,  Reinhold has developed a limited number of
customers with which it does significant amounts of business. Sales to two major
customers  constituted  approximately  55% of the  Company's  net sales in 1996.
Reinhold's  future  prospects  will  depend on the  continued  business  of such
customers and on  Reinhold's  continued  status as a qualified  supplier to such
customers.  Reinhold's success also depends on developing  additional commercial
composite  products  to  replace  heavier  and  shape  restrictive  metals-based
products.
         With the  addition  of  CompositAir  in  1994,  Reinhold  expanded  its
development  and  sale of  composite  components  into  the  commercial  area of
aircraft  seatbacks.  CompositAir has been the exclusive producer for one of its
commercial  aircraft seatback  customers for many years. The limited size of the
market, coupled with CompositAir's entrenched position, should limit competition
and  enable  Reinhold  to retain  approximately  90% of the  composite  aircraft
seatback market. In addition,  Reinhold expects that the structural  superiority
of  CompositAir's  composite  seatback  products  to  the  traditional  aluminum
aircraft  seatback products should allow Reinhold to capture a larger percentage
of the total aircraft seatback market. Raw Materials and Purchased Components
         The  principal  raw   materials  for  composite   fabrication   include
pre-impregnated  fiber cloth  (made of carbon,  graphite,  aramid or  fiberglass
fibers which have been  heat-treated),  molding compounds,  resins (phenolic and
epoxy), hardware,  adhesives and solvents.  Occasionally,  certain raw materials
and parts are supplied by customers for incorporation into the finished product.
Reinhold's principal supplier of raw materials is Fiberite.
         No  significant supply  problems  have  been   encountered   in  recent
years.   Reinhold  uses  PAN (polyacrylonitrile)  and  rayon in  manufacture  of
composites.  However,  the  supply  of rayon used  to make  carbon  fiber  cloth
is highly  dependent upon the  qualification of the rayon supplier by the United
States Department of Defense.

Environmental Matters
         Reinhold's  manufacturing  facilities  are  subject  to  regulation  by
federal,  state  and  local  environmental  agencies.  Management  believes  all
facilities  meet or exceed  all  applicable  environmental  requirements  in all
material  respects and believes that  continued  compliance  will not materially
affect  capital  expenditures,  earnings or  competitive  position.  Patents and

Trademarks
         Reinhold owns one patent  registered  with the United States Patent and
Trademark  Office for the "Method of Making  Perforated  Articles" (U.S.  Patent
No.5,252,279). The patent expires October 1997 and may be renewed for successive
periods of four years. Reinhold does not hold any registered trademarks.

Research and Development
         Research  and  Development  expenditures  were  approximately  $25,000,
$19,000  and  $47,000  for the  periods  August  1,  1996 -  December  31,  1996
(reorganized company), January 1, 1996 - July 31, 1996 (predecessor company) and
the year ended December 31, 1995 (predecessor company), respectively.


<PAGE>


Employees
         At December  31,  1996,  Reinhold  had 119  full-time  employees  and 1
part-time employee.  Of these employees,  83 (82 full-time and 1 part-time) were
employed in  manufacturing  and 37 (all  full-time) in  administration,  product
development  and sales.  Approximately  one-half of the  personnel  are based at
Reinhold's Santa Fe Springs,  California facility and approximately one-half are
based in Camarillo,  California. None of the employees is represented by a labor
union, and Reinhold considers its employee relations to be excellent.
         Additional  information  is  set  forth  in  Note  1 to  the  Financial
Statements  on page 8 and  "Management  Discussion  and  Analysis"  on page 3 of
Reinhold's 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders,  which is incorporated  herein by
reference.

</TABLE>

         Facilities  are  generally   suitable  and  adequate  for  current  and
presently  projected  needs.  Reinhold  believes  its  facilities  are  utilized
consistent with economic conditions and the requirements of its operations.


<PAGE>



Item 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         Reinhold is a defendant in a number of other legal actions arising from
the normal  course of business.  Management  believes that these actions are not
meritorious  and  will not  have a  material  adverse  effect  on the  financial
position of Reinhold.
         As part of the confirmed  Plan,  Reinhold  received  the  benefit  of a
"Permanent  Channeling  Injunction".  This Permanent Channeling  Injunction bars
asbestos-related claims and demands against Reinhold, as the reorganized company
under the Plan, and channels  those claims and demands to the Creditors'  Trust.
The  Permanent  Channeling   Injunction  also  gives  Reinhold  the  benefit  of
protection in the form of an indemnification by the Creditors' Trust for Keene's
obligations to indemnify its Officers and Dirctors under Keene's  Certificate of
Incorporation,  dated  April 12,  1990,  and  Section  145 of  Delaware  General
Corporation Law, for the  asbestos-related  claims and demands asserted by or on
behalf  of a holder  of an  asbestos-related  claim  or  demand  against  Keene.
Pursuant to the Permanent Channeling Injunction, on or after the Effective Date,
any person or entity who holds or may hold an  asbestos-related  claim or demand
against  Keene will be forever  stayed,  restrained,  and  enjoined  from taking
certain  actions  for  the  purpose  of,  directly  or  indirectly,  collecting,
recovering,   or   receiving   payment   of,   on,  or  with   respect  to  such
asbestos-related   claims  or  demands  against Reinhold.
         The payments and distributions made to the Creditors' Trust pursuant to
the terms and conditions of the Plan were made in complete satisfaction, release
and  discharge  of all claims and demands  against,  liabilities  of,  liens on,
obligations  of and  interest in  Keene and  Reinhold as the reorganized company
under the Plan.
