FEDERAL-MOGUL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
September 30, 1998


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting
principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with instructions
to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three- and the
nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1998. For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1997. Certain items in the prior year condensed
consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the
presentation used in 1998.

2.  ACQUISITIONS

The Company acquired Fel-Pro, Incorporated and certain affiliated entities,
which constitute the operating businesses of the Fel-Pro group of companies
(Fel-Pro), and acquired T&N plc (T&N) and Bimet S.A. (Bimet) during the first
quarter of 1998. In addition, the Company increased its ownership in the
Summerton, South Carolina gasket business (Summerton) and KFM Bearing Co., Ltd.
(KFM) during the first quarter. Due to the complexity of valuing certain assets
and liabilities acquired and related valuation estimates that are in process,
the purchase allocations may subsequently be adjusted as further information
becomes available. Goodwill recognized in connection with these transactions is
being amortized on a straight-line basis over forty years.

Fel-Pro Transaction

On February 24, 1998, the Company acquired all the equity interests of Fel-Pro,
a privately owned gasket manufacturer headquartered in Skokie, Illinois, for a
total consideration of approximately $717 million, which included 1,030,325.6
shares of Federal-Mogul Series E Mandatory Exchangeable preferred stock (Series
E Stock) with an imputed value of $225 million (refer to Note 8) and
approximately $492 million in cash. The acquisition has been accounted for as a
purchase and, accordingly, the total consideration was allocated to the acquired
assets and assumed liabilities based on estimated fair values as of the
acquisition date. The preliminary purchase price allocation of the total
consideration exceeds the estimated fair value of net assets acquired by $503.3
million which has been recognized as goodwill.

The consolidated statement of operations includes the operating results of the
acquired business, exclusive of the Fel-Pro Chemical Business (refer to the
caption "Acquired Businesses to be Divested," described later in this section),
from the acquisition date.


                                      -6-
<PAGE>
 
T&N plc Transaction

On March 6, 1998, the Company satisfied all regulatory conditions relating to
the acquisition of T&N, a manufacturer based in Manchester, England, and made
its offer wholly unconditional.

The Company has paid total consideration (including direct costs of the
acquisition) of $2.411 billion. The Company also acquired cash of approximately
$150 million and debt of approximately $723 million. In addition, the Company is
required to pay 260 pence per share for certain T&N options converted to T&N
shares. The Company has paid $52.9 million, net of cash to be received, for
these T&N options as of September 30, 1998 and reflects an estimated additional
amount to be paid of $7.4 million in the balance sheet current liability section
under the caption "Other Accrued Liabilities". The acquisition has been
accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the total consideration was
allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on estimated fair
values as of the acquisition date. The preliminary purchase price allocation of
the total consideration exceeds the estimated fair value of net assets acquired
by $2.015 billion which has been recognized as goodwill.

The consolidated statement of operations for the three- and the nine-month
periods ended September 30, 1998 include the operating results of T&N, exclusive
of the T&N Bearings Business (refer to the caption "Acquired Businesses to be
Divested," described later in this section), from the acquisition date. The
Company recognized an $18.6 million charge in the first quarter of 1998
associated with the estimated fair value of purchased in process research and
development costs allocated in purchase accounting to a portion of the total
consideration paid.

Acquired Businesses to be Divested

In connection with securing regulatory approvals for the acquisition of T&N, the
Company executed an Agreement Containing Consent Order with the Federal Trade
Commission (FTC) on February 27, 1998. Pursuant to this agreement the Company
was required to divest the T&N Bearings Business, consisting of T&N's thinwall
and dry bearings (polymer bearings) and provide for independent management of
those assets pending such divestiture. The agreement stipulated that the T&N
Bearings Business was to be maintained as a viable, independent competitor of
the Company and that the Company not attempt to direct the activities of, or
exercise control over, the T&N Bearings Business or have contact with the T&N
Bearings Business outside of normal business activities.

The net assets of the T&N Bearings Business have been recorded at their fair
value based on estimates of selling values less costs to sell. Previously, the
Company had estimated proceeds to be between $500 and $650 million calculated
using multiples of earnings similar to recent automotive industry transactions
considering both the ability to conduct an orderly disposition and the
requirements of the FTC Consent Order. An amount within the low end of this
range was originally used to record the net assets with estimated after tax
proceeds of approximately $400 million. At September 30, 1998 the proceeds were
estimated to be approximately $430 million, based on indications of interest
received from interested parties, with estimated after tax proceeds of
approximately $372 million and excluding the net working capital impact. The
Company's investment in the T&N Bearings Business is included in the balance
sheet caption "Acquired businesses to be divested." In addition, the Company's
preliminary purchase price allocation for T&N includes an increase of
approximately $58 million to adjust the acquired income tax liability related to
the anticipated divestiture of the T&N Bearings Business.


                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 
In July 1998, the Company sold the Fel-Pro Chemical Business to Loctite
Corporation, a part of Henkel KGaA, a global specialist in applied chemistry
headquartered in Dusseldorf, Germany for approximately $60 million.

    
Operating results for the T&N Bearings Business and Fel-Pro Chemical Business
(which includes amortization expense for goodwill allocated to the businesses
and interest expense relating to the holding costs of the businesses) have been
excluded from the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three-
and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998. (Refer also to Note 12.)
     

Pro Forma Results

The following unaudited pro forma financial information for the nine month
periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 assume the T&N and Fel-Pro
acquisitions occurred as of the beginning of the respective periods, after
giving effect to certain adjustments, including the amortization of intangible
assets, interest expense on acquisition debt, divestitures of the T&N Bearings
Business and Fel-Pro Chemical Business, the June common stock offering and
income tax effects. The pro forma results (in millions of dollars, except per
share data) have been prepared for comparative purposes only and are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations which may occur in the
future or that would have occurred had the acquisitions of T&N and Fel-Pro or
the June common stock offering been consummated on the dates indicated, nor are
they necessarily indicative of the Company's future results of operations (refer
also to Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations Pro Forma Results).

Summerton, KFM and Bimet Transactions

In February 1998, the Company increased its ownership in Summerton in connection
with the Bruss Divestiture Agreement, described in Note 7. In March 1998, the
Company increased its ownership from 30% to 87% in KFM, a Korean joint venture
formed in 1988 with Kukje Special Metal Co., Ltd. Also in March 1998, the
Company acquired Bimet, a manufacturer of engine bearings, bushings and related
products located in Gdansk, Poland. The total cash consideration paid for the
Summerton, KFM and Bimet acquisitions approximated $34 million.


                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 
The Summerton, KFM and Bimet transactions have been accounted for as purchases
and, accordingly, the total consideration was allocated to the acquired assets
and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values as of the
acquisition dates. The preliminary purchase price allocation of total
consideration over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired of
approximately $13 million has been recognized as goodwill. The consolidated
statement of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September
30, 1998 includes the operating results of the acquired businesses from the
applicable date of acquisition.

3.  RESTRUCTURING AND RATIONALIZATION OF ACQUIRED BUSINESSES

Restructuring Charge

During the first quarter of 1998, the Company recognized a $10.5 million
restructuring charge related to operations in place prior to the acquisitions of
T&N and Fel-Pro. The restructuring charge included $10.2 million and $0.3
million for severance and exit costs, respectively. Employee severance costs
result from planned terminations in various business operations of the Company.
The severance costs were based on the estimated levels that will be paid to the
affected employees pursuant to the Company's workforce reduction policies and
certain foreign governmental regulations. The Company anticipates that the
actions related to the first quarter 1998 restructuring plan will be completed
primarily within one year.

During the third quarter of 1998, the Company recognized a $6.6 million
restructuring credit for the reversal of a restructuring charge recorded in the
fourth quarter of 1998. The restructuring credit primarily related to the exit
of retail operations in Puerto Rico.

Rationalization of Acquired Businesses

In connection with the previously discussed acquisitions, the Company recognized
approximately $151 million in reserves related to the rationalization and
integration of acquired businesses. The rationalization reserves provide for
approximately $125 million and $26 million in severance and exit costs,
respectively.

The components of the integration plan include: closure of certain manufacturing
facilities worldwide; relocation of highly manual manufacturing product lines to
lower cost regions or more suitable locations; consolidation of overlapping
manufacturing, technical and sales facilities and joint ventures; closure of two
aftermarket central warehouses and five in-country warehouses; consolidation of
aftermarket marketing and customer support functions; and streamlining of
administrative, sales, marketing and product engineering staffs worldwide. An
anticipated result of the integration plan and the restructuring will be a
reduction of approximately 4,200 full-time employees.

4.  ASBESTOS LIABILITY AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

T&N Asbestos

As of September 30, 1998, the Company has provided $1.292 billion as its
estimate for future costs related to resolving asbestos claims. In the United
States, the Company's subsidiary, T&N, and two of T&N's U.S. subsidiaries (the
T&N Companies) are among many defendants named in numerous court actions
alleging personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos or
asbestos-containing products. T&N is also subject to asbestos-disease
litigation, to a lesser extent, in the United Kingdom and to

                                      -9-
<PAGE>
 
property damage litigation based upon asbestos in the United States.  Because of
the slow onset of asbestos-related diseases, management anticipates that similar
claims will be made in the future.  Although  T&N has  carefully  projected  its
future  asbestos  liability,   the  assumptions  representing  such  projections
continuously  change and it is therefore not possible to project with  certainty
what the number of such claims may be made nor the  expenditure  which may arise
therefrom.  T&N has appointed the Center for Claims  Resolution (CCR), a not for
profit coalition of former asbestos producers and sellers, as its representative
in relation to all asbestos-related  personal injury claims made against the T&N
Companies in the United States.

Prior to its acquisition, T&N secured a (pound)500 million (approximately $837
million at the September 30, 1998 exchange rate of $1.6742: 1 pound sterling)
layer of insurance which will be triggered should the aggregate amount of claims
filed after June 30, 1996, where the exposure occurred prior to that date,
exceed (pound)690 million (approximately $1,155 million at the September 30,
1998 exchange rate). At September 30, 1998 the Company has recorded reserves
approximating the insurance level for such claims.

While management believes that reserves are appropriate for anticipated losses
arising from T&N's asbestos related claims, no assurance can be given that T&N
will not be subject to material additional liabilities and significant
additional litigation relating to asbestos. Any such liabilities or litigation
in amounts in excess of the reserves recorded by the Company and the additional
(pound)500 million of insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's results of operations, business, liquidity and financial
condition.

Federal-Mogul and Fel-Pro Asbestos

The Company also is one of a large number of defendants in a number of lawsuits
brought by claimants alleging injury due to exposure to asbestos. In addition,
Fel-Pro has been named as a defendant in a large number of product liability
cases involving asbestos, primarily involving gasket or packing products sold to
ship owners. The Company is defending all such claims vigorously and believes
that it and Fel-Pro have substantial defenses to liability and adequate
insurance coverage for defense and indemnity. While the outcome of litigation
cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that asbestos claims
pending against Federal-Mogul Corporation and Fel-Pro as of September 30, 1998
will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position. At
September 30, 1998 approximately $3 million in related reserves has been
provided related to asbestos claims pending against Federal-Mogul Corporation
and Fel-Pro.

Other

The Company is involved in various other legal actions and claims, directly and
through its subsidiaries (including T&N and Fel-Pro). After taking into
consideration legal counsel's evaluation of such actions, management is of the
opinion that its outcomes are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse
affect on the Company's financial position, operating results, or cash flows.

5.  BRITISH POUND CURRENCY OPTION AND FORWARD CONTRACT

In the fourth quarter of 1997, in anticipation of the then pending T&N
acquisition, the Company purchased a British pound currency option for $28.1
million with a notional amount of $2.5 billion.

                                      -10-
<PAGE>
 
In January 1998,  the Company  settled the option and recognized a loss of $17.3
million.

Also in January 1998, in anticipation of the then pending T&N acquisition, the
Company entered into a forward contract to purchase (pound)1.5 billion for a
notional amount of approximately $2.45 billion. As a result of favorable
exchange fluctuations in the British pound/U.S. dollar exchange rate experienced
during the contract period, the Company recognized a $30.6 million gain.

The Company entered into the above transactions to effectively serve as economic
hedges for the purchase of T&N. Such transactions, however, do not qualify for
"hedge accounting" under GAAP, and therefore the loss on the British pound
currency option and the gain on the British pound forward contract are reflected
in the statement of operations caption "Net gain on British pound currency
option and forward contract."

6.  ISSUANCE OF DEBT AND EQUITY

In connection with the acquisition of T&N, the Company entered into a $2.675
billion floating rate Senior Credit Agreement (consisting of a $2.275 billion
term loan facility, and a $400 million revolving loan facility) and a $500
million floating rate Senior Subordinated Credit Agreement, each with The Chase
Manhattan Bank as agent and lender and Chase Securities Inc., as arranger.

On April 17, 1998, in connection with the Company's efforts to put into place a
permanent capital structure, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on
Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the offering from time
to time of up to an aggregate $2.5 billion of debt or equity securities
(including shares of common stock registered for the account of certain
securityholders).

On June 6, 1998, the Company issued 12,650,000 shares of common stock under the
shelf registration statement previously discussed, including 2.1 million shares
which were converted from Series E Mandatory Exchangeable Preferred Stock
(Series E Stock) (refer to Note 8). The net proceeds from the sale of the common
stock of $592 million were used to prepay the entire outstanding principal
amount under the Senior Subordinated Credit Agreement and partially repay the
Senior Credit Agreement.

In addition, under the above shelf registration statement, the Company issued
$1.0 billion of bonds on June 25, 1998. The bonds have maturities ranging from 6
to 12 years, a weighted average yield of 7.76% and a weighted average coupon of
7.73%. The net proceeds were used to reduce floating rate bank debt.

As of September 30, 1998, the Company had $1.1 billion outstanding related to
the Senior Credit Agreement with quarterly maturities beginning March 1999 and
continuing through the year 2005 and a weighted average interest rate of 7.9%.
Over 60% of the maturities occur after the year 2003.

In addition, the Company funded a portion of the T&N acquisition through the
December 1997 sale of 11.5 million shares of 7% Company-obligated mandatorily
redeemable preferred securities of subsidiary trust holding solely convertible
subordinated debentures of the Company (generating gross proceeds of $575
million) by Federal-Mogul Financing Trust, a subsidiary of the Company.

The early retirement of the Senior Subordinated Credit Agreement and the partial
repayment of the Senior Credit Agreement, as well as the early retirement in
April 1998 of $251 million in private

                                      -11-
<PAGE>
 
placement debt assumed in connection with the acquisition of T&N,  resulted in a
$47.1 million pretax ($31.3 million after tax)  extraordinary loss in the second
quarter of 1998.

Collateral and Guarantees
The Company has pledged the capital stock of its U.S. subsidiaries, 65% of
capital stock of certain foreign subsidiaries and certain intercompany loans to
secure the senior debt of the Company. In addition, certain U.S.
subsidiaries of the Company have guaranteed the senior debt.

7.  ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND DIVESTITURES

In addition to the T&N Bearings Business and Fel-Pro Chemical Business held for
sale, during the first quarter of 1998, the Company decided to sell its
subsidiary, Bertolotti Pietro e Figli, S.r.l. (Bertolotti), conducting
aftermarket operations in Italy. The carrying value of Bertolotti's assets have
been reduced to its fair value based on estimates of selling values less costs
to sell, calculated using multiples of earnings similar to recent automotive
industry transactions in Italy. The Company recognized a $20.0 million first
quarter charge primarily associated with the write-down of Bertolotti's assets
to the estimated fair value. The Company expects to complete the sale of
Bertolotti within one year.

In the second quarter, the Company recognized a $1.0 million benefit associated
with the adjustment of the assets of Chile to its estimated fair value.

As part of its 1996 restructuring plan, the Company continued to close or sell
certain retail aftermarket operations during 1998. Net cash proceeds received
for those retail aftermarket locations sold in the nine months ended September
30, 1998 approximated $7 million. No gain or loss was recognized on the
dispositions of those retail aftermarket locations, as the related assets had
been previously adjusted to fair value.

Bruss Divestiture Agreement

In February 1998, the Company divested its minority interest in G. Bruss GmbH &
Co. KG ("Bruss"), a German manufacturer of seals and gaskets. As part of the
divestiture agreement the Company also acquired an additional 26% ownership
interest from Bruss in the Summerton sealing products location thereby obtaining
a wholly owned position. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $47
million related to the divestiture agreement and recognized a gain on the
divestiture of $6.0 million. The gain on the divestiture is included as a
component of other expense.

Sale of Acquired Options

The Company received proceeds of $39.1 million from the sale of options which
were acquired with the acquisition of T&N. No gain or loss was recognized in
connection with the sale of the options acquired.

8.   EARNINGS PER SHARE, NON-CASH TRANSACTION AND COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Convertible preferred securities redeemable for 11.2 million shares of common
stock were outstanding during the three- and nine- month periods ended September
30, 1998. The convertible preferred securitities were not included in the
computation of diluted earnings per share for the three- and nine-month periods
ended September 30, 1998 because the effect would be antidilutive.

Quarterly dividends of $0.12 per common share were declared for the first
quarter of 1998, $0.0025 per common share were declared for the second and third
quarters of 1998, and $0.12 per common share were declared for the first, second
and third quarters of 1997.

Non-Cash Transaction

In connection with the Fel-Pro acquisition, the Company issued 1,030,325.6
million shares of Series E Stock with an imputed value of $225 million. The
shares of Series E Stock are exchangeable into shares of the Company's common
stock at a rate of five shares of common stock per share of Series E Stock.
Subsequently, in June 1998, in conjunction with the common stock offering, the
Company converted 422,581 shares of Series E Stock into 2,112,907 shares of
common stock. The remaining 607,745 million shares of Series E Stock are
required to be exchanged into shares of the Company's common stock no later than
February 24, 1999, subject to certain conditions and such shares are paid
quarterly dividends at a rate of $0.12 per common stock equivalent.

Comprehensive Income

During 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income. This Statement establishes standards for the
reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set
of general purpose financial statements. The Company adopted Statement 130 as of
January 1, 1998. The adoption of this Statement had no impact on the Company's
net earnings (loss) or shareholders' equity. Statement 130 requires foreign
currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains or losses on investments
and certain derivative instruments, which prior to the adoption of Statement 130
were reported as a component of shareholders' equity, to be included in other
comprehensive income.

Total comprehensive income, net of the related estimated tax, was $47.1 million
and $15.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively and $22.9 million and $42.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

9.   INVENTORIES

At September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, inventories consisted of the
following (in millions of dollars):

                                      1998          1997

                                      -14-
<PAGE>
 
The significant increase in inventory was primarily due to the previously
described acquisitions in Note 2.

10.  INCOME TAXES

During the nine months ended September 30, the Company recognized charges for
adjustment of assets held for sale to fair value and purchased in-process
research and development and recognized a net gain on the British pound currency
option and forward contract. These transactions resulted in a pre-tax net charge
of $24.3 million. The net income tax benefit related to these transactions
totaled $2.1 million. In addition, due to the acquisitions of T&N and Fel-Pro,
the Company recognized approximately $28 million in non-deductible goodwill
amortization expense.

unconditionally, on a joint and several basis, the obligation to pay principal
and interest of the New Notes or the Notes (the "Guarantees").  They have no 
operations and act solely as direct or indirect holding companies of 
subsidiaries that do not provide a guarantee.

In addition, certain other wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, the
Federal-Mogul Subsidiaries (as listed above), provide the Guarantees. The
Federal-Mogul Subsidiaries are included in the Company's consolidated financial
statements for all periods presented in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
dated December 31, 1997.

The Fel-Pro Subsidiaries (as listed above) were acquired on February 24, 1998,
are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company and also provide the Guarantees.

The  financial  statements  of Felt  Products  Mfg.  Co.  were  filed  with  the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission  on Form 8-K on April 17,  1998,  since the
stock of Felt Products Mfg. Co. was pledged as collateral for the Notes. On June
10, 1998,  Felt  Products  Mfg. Co.  declared a dividend to the Company  whereby
substantially all of its assets were transferred to the Company.  As a result of
the dividend to its parent,  Felt Products Mfg. no longer meets the  substantial
collateral  threshold of Rule 3-10 of the Securitites and Exchange  Commission's
Regulation S-X.  Therefore,  the Company will no longer file separate  financial
statements of Felt Products Mfg. Co.

     

In lieu of providing separate audited financial statements for the Guarantors,
the Company has included the accompanying unaudited consolidating condensed
financial statements based on the Company's understanding of the Securities and
Exchange Commission's interpretation and application of Rule 3-10 of the
Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation S-X and Staff Accounting
Bulletin 53. Management does not believe that separate financial statements of
the Guarantors are material to investors. Therefore, separate financial
statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantors are not presented.

sales of approximately $1.9 billion for approximately $1.9 billion cash.

In connection with the acquisition of Cooper Automotive Inc., the Company
entered into a $1.95 billion floating rate senior credit agreement with The
Chase Manhattan Bank as agent and a syndicate of lenders. The senior-credit
agreement consists of $1.55 billion in interim loans which will mature on April
9, 2000 and $400 million of Tranche C Loans which will be repaid in 29
consecutive quarterly installments beginning September 30, 1999.

Announced Sale of T&N Bearings Business

On October 27, 1998, the company announced that it had entered into an agreement
to sell the T&N Bearing Business to Dana Corporation. The Company expects to
receive proceeds of approximately $430 million and an additional $13 million of
net proceeds from the collection of accounts receivable related to the sold
businesses. The sale of these businesses is in connection with the Consent Order

                                      -24-

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

OVERVIEW

The Company is a leading global manufacturer and distributor of a broad range of
vehicular components for automobiles and light trucks, heavy duty trucks, farm
and construction vehicles and industrial products. Such parts include powertrain
systems components (primarily bearings and piston products), sealing systems
components (dynamic seals and gaskets) and general products (primarily
camshafts, friction products, sintered products and systems protection
products). The Company markets its products to many of the world's major
original equipment manufacturers of automobiles, light trucks, heavy duty
trucks, farm and construction vehicles and industrial products. The Company also
manufactures and supplies its products and related parts to the aftermarket. The
Company operates facilities at over 240 locations in 24 countries.

The following summarizes net sales by manufacturing division, geographic region
and customer group as a percentage of total net sales for the year ended
December 31, 1997, on a pro forma basis.

Business Units:                Geographic Region:      Customer Group:
---------------                ------------------      ---------------
Powertrain Products  40%       North America  49%      Original Equipment 52%
Sealing Systems      22%       Europe         40%      Aftermarket        48%
General Products     38%       Rest of World  11%

ACQUISITIONS

The Company acquired Fel-Pro, Incorporated and certain affiliated entities,
which constitute the operating businesses of the Fel-Pro group of companies
(Fel-Pro), and acquired T&N plc (T&N) and Bimet S.A. (Bimet) during the first
quarter of 1998. In addition, the Company increased its ownership in the
Summerton, South Carolina gasket business (Summerton) and KFM Bearing Co., Ltd.
(KFM) during the first quarter. Due to the complexity of valuing certain assets
and liabilities acquired and related valuation estimates that are in process,
the purchase allocation may subsequently be adjusted as further information
becomes available. Goodwill recognized in connection with these transactions is
being amortized on a straight-line basis over forty years.

Fel-Pro Transaction

On February 24, 1998, the Company acquired all the equity interests of Fel-Pro,
a privately owned gasket manufacturer headquartered in Skokie, Illinois, for a
total consideration of approximately $717 million, which included 1,030,325.6
shares of Federal-Mogul Series E Stock with an imputed value of $225 million
(refer also to Note 8) and approximately $492 million in cash. The acquisition
has been accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the total consideration
was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on estimated
fair values as of the acquisition date. The preliminary purchase price
allocation of the total consideration exceeds the estimated fair value of net
assets acquired by $503.3 million, which has been recognized as goodwill.

Fel-Pro is a leading gaskets manufacturer for the North American aftermarket and
OE heavy duty market. In 1997, Fel-Pro had sales of approximately $500 million.
At the time of the acquisition, Fel-Pro's primary product lines consisted of
gaskets, heavy duty diesel engine products, diesel 

                                      -26-
<PAGE>
 
products,  high performance  gaskets and other equipment and Chemical  products.
Fel-Pro  employed  approximately  2,700  employees in 16 locations.  On July 31,
1998,  the  Company  completed  the  sale of  Fel-Pro's  Chemical  manufacturing
operations  representing  approximately  $33 million of Fel-Pro's 1997 net sales
(refer to the caption "Acquired Businesses to be Divested").

The consolidated statement of operations for the three- and nine-month periods
ended September 30, 1998 includes the operating results of the acquired
business, exclusive of the Fel-Pro Chemical Business, from the acquisition date.

T&N Transaction

On March 6, 1998, the Company satisfied all regulatory conditions relating to
the acquisition of T&N, a manufacturer based in Manchester, England, and made
its offer wholly unconditional.

The Company has paid total consideration (including direct costs of the
acquisition) of $2.411 billion. The Company also acquired cash of approximately
$150 million and debt of approximately $723 million. In addition, the Company is
required to pay 260 pence per share for certain T&N options expected to be
converted to T&N shares. As of September 30, 1998, the Company has paid $52.9
million, net of cash received, for these T&N options and reflects an estimated
additional amount to be paid of $7.4 million in the balance sheet current
liability section under the caption "Other accrued liabilities." The acquisition
has been accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the total consideration
was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on estimated
fair values as of the acquisition date. The preliminary purchase price
allocation of the total consideration exceeds the estimated fair value of net
assets acquired by $2.015 billion which has been recognized as goodwill.

In connection with the acquisition of T&N, the Company entered into a $2.675
billion floating rate Senior Credit Agreement (consisting of a $2.275 billion
term loan facility and a $400 million revolving loan facility) and a $500
million floating rate Senior Subordinated Credit Agreement, each with Chase
Manhattan Bank as agent and lender and Chase Securities, Inc. as Arranger.

In addition, the Company funded a portion of the T&N acquisition through the
December 1997 sale of 11.5 million shares of 7% Company-obligated mandatorily
redeemable preferred securities of subsidiary trust holding solely convertible
subordinated debentures of the Company (generating gross proceeds of $575
million) by Federal-Mogul Financing Trust, a subsidiary of the Company.

T&N manufactures and supplies high technology engineered automotive components
and industrial materials. In 1997, T&N had sales of approximately (pound)1.8
billion ($2.9 billion at the 1997 average exchange rate) with about 80% of such
sales relating to the global automotive industry. At the time of its
acquisition, T&N's major product lines consisted of piston products, bearings,
friction products, composites and camshafts (incorporating sintered products)
and sealing products and it was active in both the original equipment and the
aftermarket markets. T&N operated in approximately 200 locations in 24
countries, employed over 28,000 people worldwide and served customers globally.
T&N's assets included technical centers in the U.K., Germany and North America.

The consolidated statement of operations for the three- and nine- month periods
ended September 30, 1998 includes the operating results of T&N, exclusive of the
T&N Bearings Business (refer to the caption "Acquired Businesses to be
Divested," described later in this section), from the acquisition date. 

                                      -27-
<PAGE>
 
Acquired Businesses to be Divested

In connection with securing regulatory approvals for the acquisition of T&N, the
Company executed an Agreement Containing Consent Order with the Federal Trade
Commission (FTC) on February 27, 1998. Pursuant to this agreement the Company
was required to divest the T&N Bearings Business, consisting of T&N's thinwall
and dry bearings (polymer bearings) and provide for independent management of
those assets pending such divestiture. The agreement stipulated that the T&N
Bearings Business was to be maintained as a viable, independent competitor of
the Company and that the Company not attempt to direct the activities of, or
exercise control over, the T&N Bearings Business or have contact with the T&N
Bearings Business outside of normal business activities.

The net assets of the T&N Bearings Business have been recorded at their fair
value based on estimates of selling values less costs to sell. Previously, the
Company had estimated proceeds to be between $500 and $650 million calculated
using multiples of earnings similar to recent automotive industry transactions
considering both the ability to conduct an orderly disposition and the
requirements of the FTC Consent Order. An amount within the low end of this
range was originally used to record the net assets with estimated after tax
proceeds of approximately $400 million. At September 30, 1998 the proceeds were
estimated to be approximately $430 million, based on indications of interest
received from interested parties, with estimated after tax proceeds of
approximately $372 million and excluding the net working capital impact. The
Company's investment in the T&N Bearings Business is included in the balance
sheet caption "Acquired businesses to be divested." In addition, the Company's
preliminary purchase price allocation for T&N includes an increase of
approximately $58 million to adjust the acquired income tax liability related to
the anticipated divestiture of the T&N Bearings Business.

On July 31, 1998, the Company sold the Fel-Pro Chemical Business to Loctite
Corporation, a part of Henkel KGaA, a global specialist in applied chemistry
headquartered in Dusseldorf, Germany for approximately $60 million.

Operating results for the T&N Bearings and Fel-Pro Chemical Business (which
includes amortization expense for goodwill allocated to the businesses and
interest expense relating to the holding costs of the businesses) have been
excluded from the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-
and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998. (Refer also to Subsequent
Events discussion.)

Summerton, KFM and Bimet Transactions

In February 1998, the Company increased its ownership in Summerton in connection
with the Bruss Divestiture Agreement, described in Note 7. In March 1998, the
Company increased its ownership from 30% to 87% in KFM, a Korean joint venture
formed in 1988 with Kukje Special Metal Co., Ltd.

Also in March 1998, the Company acquired Bimet, a manufacturer of engine
bearings, bushings and related products located in Gdansk, Poland. The total
cash consideration paid for the Summerton, KFM and Bimet acquisitions
approximated $34 million.


The Summerton, KFM and Bimet transactions have been accounted for as purchases
and, accordingly, the total consideration was allocated to the acquired assets
and assumed liabilities based on its estimated 


                                      -28-
<PAGE>
 
fair  values  as of  the  acquisition  dates.  The  preliminary  purchase  price
allocation of total  consideration  over the estimated  fair value of net assets
acquired of $12.6  million has been  recognized  as goodwill.  The  consolidated
statement of operations  for the three- and nine-month  periods ended  September
30, 1998  includes the  operating  results of the acquired  businesses  from the
applicable date of acquisition.

Acquisition Strategy

One of the Company's principal business strategies is to expand its core
competencies in manufacturing and distribution through acquisitions of companies
that the Company identifies as complementary to its existing businesses and
capable of achieving satisfactory rates of return. The Company is engaged in
various stages of evaluation of potential acquisition candidates. Currently, the
Company is in the process of pursuing one or more potential acquisitions. Any
such acquisitions would be paid for through the incurrence of additional debt,
the issuance of capital stock or both. If the Company determines that any one or
more of these potential acquisitions or other transactions would meet its
criteria and may be accomplished on appropriate terms, it expects to act to
attempt to consummate them as quickly as possible. There can be no assurance
that any of the discussions in which the Company is currently engaged will
result in the completion of any acquisitions, that the Company will in the
future succeed in locating or acquiring appropriate companies on attractive
terms or that the Company will be successful in integrating acquired companies
or realizing desired benefits of such acquisitions.

The Company believes that successful implementation of this strategy will
require significant capital expenditures which it might not be able to fund from
its cash from operations. Therefore, the Company may be required to borrow money
or otherwise obtain financing for future acquisitions.

DIVESTITURES

In February 1998, the Company divested its minority interest in G. Bruss GmbH &
Co. KG, a German manufacturer of seals and gaskets. As part of the divestiture
agreement the Company increased its ownership in Summerton. The Company received
net proceeds of approximately $47 million related to the divestiture agreement
and recognized a gain on the divestiture of $6.0 million. The gain on the
divestiture is included as a component of other expense.

In addition, the Company closed or sold substantially all its remaining retail
aftermarket operations during the first nine months of 1998.

ASBESTOS LIABILITY AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

T&N Asbestos

As of September 30, 1998, the Company has provided $1.292 billion as its
estimate for future costs related to resolving asbestos claims. In the United
States, the Company's subsidiary, T&N, and two of T&N's U.S. subsidiaries (the
T&N Companies) are among many defendants named in numerous court actions
alleging personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos or
asbestos-containing products. T&N is also subject to asbestos-disease
litigation, to a lesser extent, in the United Kingdom and to property damage
litigation based upon asbestos in the United States. Because of the slow onset
of asbestos-related diseases, management anticipates that similar claims will be
made in the future. Although T&N has carefully projected its future asbestos
liability, the assumptions representing such 

                                      -29-
<PAGE>
 
projections continuously change and it is therefore not possible to project with
certainty what the number of such claims may be made nor the expenditure which
may arise therefrom. T&N has appointed the Center for Claims Resolution (CCR), a
not for profit coalition of former asbestos producers and sellers, as its
representative in relation to all asbestos-related personal injury claims made
against the T&N Companies in the United States.

Prior to its acquisition, T&N secured a (pound)500 million (approximately $837
million at the September 30, 1998 exchange rate of $1.6742:1 pound sterling)
layer of insurance which will be triggered should the aggregate amount of claims
filed after June 30, 1996, where the exposure occurred prior to that date,
exceed 690 million pounds sterling (approximately $1,155 million at the
September 30, 1998 exchange rate). At September 30, 1998 the Company has
recorded reserves approximating the insurance level for such claims.

While management believes that reserves are appropriate for anticipated losses
arising from T&N's asbestos related claims, no assurance can be given that T&N
will not be subject to material additional liabilities and significant
additional litigation relating to asbestos. Any such liabilities or litigation
in amounts in excess of the reserves recorded by the Company and the additional
pound 500 million of insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's results of operations, business, liquidity and financial
condition.

Federal-Mogul and Fel-Pro Asbestos

Federal-Mogul Corporation also is one of a large number of defendants in a
number of lawsuits brought by claimants alleging injury due to exposure to
asbestos. In addition, Fel-Pro has been named as a defendant in a large number
of product liability cases involving asbestos, primarily involving gasket or
packing products sold to ship owners. The Company is defending all such claims
vigorously and believes that it and Fel-Pro have substantial defenses to
liability and adequate insurance coverage for defense and indemnity. While the
outcome of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes
that asbestos claims pending against Federal-Mogul Corporation and Fel-Pro as of
September 30, 1998 will not have a material effect on the Company's financial
position. At September 30, 1998, approximately $3 million in related reserves
has been provided related to asbestos claims pending against Federal-Mogul
Corporation and Fel-Pro.

Other

The Company is involved in various other legal actions and claims, directly and
through its subsidiaries (including T&N and Fel-Pro). After taking into
consideration legal counsel's evaluation of such actions, management is of the
opinion that its outcomes are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse
affect on the Company's financial position, operating results, or cash flows.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Following the acquisitions of T&N and Fel-Pro, Federal-Mogul's integrated
operations have been reorganized to realize synergies and effectively coordinate
operations. Operations are conducted through three manufacturing operating units
corresponding to major product areas: Powertrain Systems, Sealing Systems and
General Products. The major product categories in Powertrain Systems include
engine bearings and piston products. Sealing Systems includes dynamic seals and
gaskets. General Products include camshafts, friction products, sintered
products, systems protection products and a number of smaller product lines. The
Worldwide Aftermarket organization is a component of each major product area and
is responsible for the Company's global aftermarket sales, marketing and
distribution.

Net Sales

Sales for the third quarter of 1998 were $1,121.2 million compared to $424.2
million in the same quarter of 1997. The 164.3% increase in net sales is
primarily attributable to the acquisitions of T&N and Fel-Pro, the results of
which were included from their respective dates of acquisition. Excluding the
impact of the T&N and Fel-Pro acquisitions and the impact of previously divested
retail aftermarket businesses, net sales decreased 4.3%.

Powertrain Systems sales were $458.6 million for the third quarter of 1998
compared to $176.6 million for the same 1997 quarter. Approximately $284 million
of the 159.7% increase related to sales of T&N. Excluding the acquisition of T&N
and powertrain products previously sold through the divested retail aftermarket
businesses, sales decreased 1.1% due to softness in the North American
aftermarket business.

Sealing Systems sales were $239.1 million in the third quarter of 1998 compared
to $81.1 million in the third quarter of 1997. Approximately $43 million of the
194.8% increase related to sales of T&N and approximately $111 million related
to sales of Fel-Pro. Excluding the acquisitions of T&N and Fel-Pro and sealing
products previously sold through the divested retail aftermarket businesses,
sales increased 5.1% due to strong volume from both the North and South American
aftermarket businesses.

General Products sales were $423.5 million in the third quarter of 1998 compared
to $166.5 million in 1997. Approximately $279 million of the 154.4% increase
related to sales of T&N. Excluding the acquisitions of T&N and general products
previously sold through the divested retail aftermarket businesses, sales
decreased 12.4% primarily due to continued softness in the North American
aftermarket business.

Cost of Products Sold

Cost of products sold as a percent of net sales decreased to 73.9% for the third
quarter of 1998 from 75.8% for the same 1997 quarter. Excluding the effect of a
$6.4 million write-down of inventory primarily related to the liquidation of the
Puerto Rican retail assets, cost of products sold as a percent of net sales
decreased to 73.3%. Management attributes this decrease to productivity
improvements, cost controls, streamlined operations, the divestiture of
underperforming assets and the acquisitions previously discussed.

<PAGE>
 
Selling , General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses as a percent of net sales
decreased to 13.6% for the third quarter of 1998 compared to 16.8% for the third
quarter of 1997. The significant decrease is primarily attributable to the
benefits of prior restructuring actions and the realization of combined
efficiencies from the acquisitions previously discussed.

Amortization Expense

Amortization expense in the third quarter of 1998 was $25.3 million compared to
$2.6 million for the third quarter of 1997. The increase in amortization expense
was attributable to the expense related to the increase in goodwill and other
intangible assets associated with the T&N and Fel-Pro acquisitions.

Restructuring Benefit

During the third quarter of 1998, the Company recognized a $6.6 million
restructuring credit for the reversal of a restructuring charge recorded in the
fourth quarter of 1997. The restructuring credit primarily related to the exit
of retail operations in Puerto Rico.

Integration Costs

In the third quarter of 1998, the Company incurred $9.0 million in expenses
directly related to the integration of the T&N and Fel-Pro acquisitions
previously discussed. In addition, the Company expects to incur additional
expenses of approximately $24 million necessary to complete the integration of
the acquired companies during the fourth quarter of 1998 and throughout 1999.

Net Interest Expense

Interest expense in the third quarter of 1998 was $41.3 million compared to $6.5
million for the third quarter of 1997. The increase in interest expense is
attributable to the interest expense related to the financing of the T&N and
Fel-Pro acquisitions slightly offset by reduced preacquisition debt levels as
compared to the third quarter of 1997.

Income Tax Expense

During the third quarter of 1998, due to the acquisitions of T&N and Fel-Pro,
the Company recognized approximately $14 million in non-deductible goodwill
amortization expense.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1997

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales

Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 were $2,993.2 million
compared to $1,391.6 million for the same 1997 period. The 115.1% increase in
net sales is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of T&N and Fel-Pro the
results of which were included from their respective dates of acquisition.
Excluding the impact of the T&N and Fel-Pro acquisitions and the impact of
previously divested retail aftermarket businesses, net sales decreased 4.2%.

Powertrain Systems sales were $1,269.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 compared to $608.2 million for the same 1997 period.
Approximately $694 million of the 108.7% increase related to sales of T&N.
Excluding the acquisition of T&N and Powertrain products previously sold through
the divested retail aftermarket businesses, sales decreased 2.2%. The decrease
in sales is attributable to effects from the General Motors strike as well as
softness in the North American aftermarket business.

Sealing Systems sales were $663.4 million for the nine months ended September
30, 1998 compared to $238.5 million in the same 1997 period. Approximately $135
million of the 178.2% increase related to sales of T&N and approximately $278
million related to sales of Fel-Pro. Excluding the acquisitions of T&N and
Fel-Pro and sealing products previously sold through the divested retail
aftermarket businesses, sales increased 5.4% due to strong heavy duty and
industrial sales as well as strong third quarter volume in both North and South
American aftermarket businesses.

General Products sales were $1,060.4 million in the first half of 1998 compared
to $544.9 million in 1997. Approximately $617 million of the 94.6% increase
related to sales of T&N. Excluding the acquisitions of T&N and general products
previously sold through the divested retail aftermarket businesses, sales
decreased 11.2% primarily due to continuing softness in the North American
aftermarket business.

Cost of Products Sold

Cost of products sold as a percent of net sales decreased to 74.2% for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 from 76.3% for the same 1997 period. Excluding
the effect of a $10.9 million charge in the first quarter of 1998 associated
with the purchase accounting write-up of acquired inventory to fair value and
the subsequent sale of this inventory at the higher cost, as well as a $6.4
million write-down of inventory, primarily related to the liquidation of the
Puerto Rican retail assets, cost of products sold as a percent of sales
decreased to 73.6%. Management attributes this decrease to productivity
improvements, cost controls, streamlined operations, the divestiture of
underperforming assets and the acquisitions previously discussed.

Selling , General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses as percent of net sales
decreased to 14.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 compared to
15.7% for the same 1997 period. The 

                                      -33-
<PAGE>
 
decrease is primarily attributable to the benefits of prior restructuring
actions, the divestiture of retail aftermarket businesses and the realization of
combined efficiencies from the acquisitions previously discussed slightly offset
by an approximately $4 million increase related to Year 2000 costs.

Amortization Expense

Amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $60.4
million compared to $7.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
The increase in amortization expense was attributable to the expense related to
the increase in goodwill and other intangible assets associated with the T&N and
Fel-Pro acquisitions.

Purchased In-Process Research and Development Charge

The Company recognized an $18.6 million charge in the first quarter of 1998
associated with the estimated fair value of in-process research and development
costs allocated in purchase accounting to a portion of the total consideration
paid.

Restructuring Charges

During the first quarter of 1998, the Company recognized a $10.5 million
restructuring charge related to operations in place prior to the acquisitions of
T&N and Fel-Pro. The restructuring charge included $10.2 million and $0.3
million for severance and exit costs, respectively. Employee severance costs
result from planned terminations in various business operations of the Company.
The severance costs were based on the estimated levels that will be paid to the
affected employees pursuant to the Company's workforce reduction policies and
certain foreign governmental regulations. The Company anticipates that the
actions related to the first quarter 1998 restructuring plan will be completed
primarily within one year.

During the third quarter of 1998, the Company recognized a $6.6 million
restructuring credit for the reversal of a restructuring charge recorded in the
fourth quarter of 1997. The restructuring credit primarily related to the exit
of retail operations in Puerto Rico.

Rationalization of Acquired Businesses

In connection with the previously discussed acquisitions, the Company recognized
approximately $151 million in reserves related to the rationalization and
integration of acquired businesses. The rationalization reserves provide for
approximately $125 million and $26 million in severance and exit costs,
respectively.

The components of the integration plan include: closure of certain manufacturing
facilities worldwide; relocation of highly manual manufacturing product lines to
lower cost regions or more suitable locations; consolidation of overlapping
manufacturing, technical and sales facilities and joint ventures; closure of two
aftermarket central warehouses and five in-country warehouses; consolidation of
aftermarket marketing and customer support functions; and streamlining of
administrative, sales, marketing and product engineering staffs worldwide. An
anticipated result of the integration plan and the restructuring will be a
reduction of approximately 4,200 full-time employees.

                                      -34-

Adjustment of Assets Held for Sale to Fair Value

In addition to the T&N Bearings Business and the Fel-Pro Chemical Business held
for sale, during 1998, the Company decided to sell its subsidiary, Bertolotti
Pietro e Figli, S.r.l. (Bertolotti), conducting aftermarket operations in Italy.
The carrying value of Bertolotti's assets have been reduced to its fair value
based on estimates of selling values less costs to sell, calculated using
multiples of earnings similar to recent automotive industry transactions in
Italy. The Company recognized a $20.0 million first quarter charge primarily
associated with the write-down of Bertolotti's assets to the estimated fair
value. The Company expects to complete the sale of Bertolotti within one year.

In the second quarter, the Company recognized a $1.0 million benefit associated
with the adjustment of the assets of Chile to its estimated fair value.

As part of its 1996 restructuring plan, the Company continued to close or sell
certain retail aftermarket operations during 1998. As of September 30, 1998, the
Company has sold or closed substantially all its retail aftermarket operations.
Net cash proceeds received for those retail aftermarket locations sold in the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 approximated $7 million. No gain or loss
was recognized on the dispositions of those retail aftermarket locations, as the
related assets had been previously adjusted to fair value.

Integration Costs

In the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Company incurred $13.7 million
in expenses directly related to the integration of the T&N and Fel-Pro
acquisitions previously discussed. In addition, the Company expects to incur
additional expenses of approximately $24 million necessary to complete the
integration of the acquired companies during the fourth quarter of 1998 and
throughout 1999.

Anticipated Synergy

The Company anticipates its annual synergies in the year 2000 to be moderately 
in excess of the previously discussed $10.5 million restructuring, $151 million 
rationalization and $38 million of expected integration costs.

Net Interest Expense

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $107.4 million
compared to $25.3 million for the same 1997 period. The increase in interest
expense is attributable to the interest expense related to the financing of the
T&N and Fel-Pro acquisitions slightly offset by reduced preacquisition debt
levels as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997.

Net Gain on British Pound Currency Option and Forward Contract

In the fourth quarter of 1997, in anticipation of the then pending T&N
acquisition, the Company purchased a British pound currency option for $28.1
million with a notional amount of $2.5 billion. In January 1998, the Company
settled the option and recognized a loss of $17.3 million.

Also in January 1998, in anticipation of the then pending T&N acquisition, the
Company entered into a forward contract to purchase 1.5 billion pounds sterling
for a notional amount of approximately $2.45 billion. As a result of favorable
exchange fluctuations in the British pound/U.S. dollar exchange rate experienced
during the contract period, the Company recognized a $30.6 million gain.

                                      -35-
<PAGE>
 
The Company entered into the above transactions to effectively serve as economic
hedges for the purchase of T&N. Such transactions, however, do not qualify for
"hedge accounting" under U.S. GAAP, and therefore the loss on the British pound
currency option and the gain on the British pound forward contract are reflected
in the statement of operations caption "Net gain on British pound currency
option and forward contract."

Income Tax Expense

During the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Company recognized charges
for adjustment of assets held for sale to fair value and purchased in-process
research and development and recognized a net gain on the British pound currency
option and forward contract. These transactions resulted in a pre-tax net charge
of $24.3 million. The net income tax benefit related to these transactions
totaled $2.1 million. In addition, due to the acquisitions of T&N and Fel-Pro,
the Company recognized approximately $28 million in non-deductible goodwill
amortization expense.

Pro Forma Results

The following unaudited pro forma financial information for the nine month
period ended September 30, 1998 assumes the T&N and Fel-Pro acquisitions
occurred as of the beginning of the period, after giving effect to certain
adjustments, including the amortization of intangible assets, interest expense
on acquisition debt, divestitures of the T&N Bearings Business and Fel-Pro
Chemical Business, the June common stock offering and income tax effects. The
pro forma results (in millions of dollars, except per share data) have been
prepared for comparative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the
results of operations which may occur in the future or that would have occurred
had the acquisitions of T&N and Fel-Pro or the June common stock offering been
consummated on the dates indicated, nor are they necessarily indicative of the
Company's future results of operations.

The unaudited historical and pro forma financial information for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 includes charges for adjustment of assets held for sale
to fair value, restructuring, the effects of the previously described purchase
accounting write-up of acquired inventory to fair value and the write-down of
inventory associated with the divested Puerto Rico retail aftermarket business,
integration and certain other charges. Also included in the 1998 unaudited pro
forma financial information were the recognized net gain on the British pound
currency option and forward contract and the gain on the Bruss divestiture. The
net after tax effect of these transactions was a charge of approximately $27
million ($.46 per diluted share).

The unaudited historical and pro forma financial information for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 includes the recognition of an income tax benefit and
the recognition of a gain, both related to the sale of businesses. The net after
tax effect of these transactions was a benefit of approximately $23 million
($.40 per diluted share).

The $18.6 ($.32 per diluted share) million charge for purchased in-process
research and development has been excluded from the 1998 unaudited pro forma
financial information.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flow Provided from Operating Activities

Cash flow provided from operating activities was $228.1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998. Cash flow was generated primarily from a
decrease in inventories of $47.0 million, an increase in other accrued
liabilities of $51.4 million and net earnings adjusted for the loss on early
retirement of debt and the non-cash charges of depreciation and amortization,
purchased in-process research and development, restructuring and adjustment of
assets held for sale to fair value. Partially offsetting these items was an
increase in accounts receivable of $25.7 million, payments against the asbestos
liability of $58.8 million and payments against restructuring, reengineering and
rationalization reserves of $35.7 million.

Cash Flow Used by Investing Activities

Cash flow used by investing activities was $2,766.8 million and was primarily
related to the acquisitions of T&N, Fel-Pro, Bimet and the increase in ownership
of Summerton and KFM partially reduced by the sale of the Company's interest in
G. Bruss GmbH & Co. KG and the sale of certain retail aftermarket locations.
Partially offsetting the acquisitions, the Company received proceeds from the
sale of options which were acquired with the acquisition of T&N. In addition,
capital expenditures of $129.1 million were made for property, plant and
equipment to implement process improvements, information technology and new
product introductions. Capital expenditures are anticipated not to exceed $200
million in 1998, primarily for enhanced manufacturing capabilities and process
improvements.

Cash Flow Provided from Financing Activities

Cash flow provided from financing activities was $2,099.6 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 primarily from the increase in debt related to
the acquisitions of T&N and Fel-Pro and the issuance of common stock detailed
below, partially offset by the related debt issuance fees of $55.3 million and
fees paid for the early retirement of debt of $27.4 million.

On April 17, 1998, in connection with the Company's efforts to put into place a
permanent capital structure, the Company filed a shelf Registration Statement on
Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the offering from time
to time of up to an aggregate $2.5 billion of debt or equity securities
(including shares of common stock registered for the account of certain
securityholders).

On June 6, 1998, the Company issued 12,650,000 shares of common stock under the
registration statement previously discussed, including 2.1 million shares which
were converted from Series E 

                                      -37-
<PAGE>
 
Stock. The net proceeds from the sale of the common stock of $592 million was
used to prepay the entire outstanding principal amount under the Senior
Subordinated Credit Agreement and partially repay the Senior Credit Agreement.

In addition, under the above shelf registration statement, the Company issued
$1.0 billion of bonds on June 25, 1998. The bonds have maturities ranging from 6
to 12 years, a weighted average yield of 7.76% and a weighted average coupon of
7.73%. The net proceeds were used to reduce floating rate bank debt.

As of September 30, 1998, the Company had $1.1 billion outstanding related to
the Senior Credit Agreement with maturities ranging from March of 1999 through
the year 2005 and a weighted-average interest rate of 7.9%. Over 60% of the
maturities occur after the year 2003.

In addition, the Company funded a portion of the T&N acquisition through the
December 1997 sale of 11.5 million shares of 7% Company-obligated mandatorily
redeemable preferred securities of subsidiary trust holding solely convertible
subordinated debentures of the Company (generating gross proceeds of $575
million) by Federal-Mogul Financing Trust, a subsidiary of the Company.

The early retirement of the Senior Subordinated Credit Agreement and the partial
repayment of the Senior Credit Agreement, as well as the early retirement in
April 1998 of $251 million in private placement debt assumed in connection with
the acquisition of T&N, resulted in a $47.1 million pretax ($31.3 million after
tax) extraordinary loss in the second quarter of 1998.

In connection with the Fel-Pro acquisition, the Company issued 1,030,325.6
million shares Series E Stock with an imputed value of $225 million. The shares
of Series E Stock are exchangeable into shares of the Company's common stock at
a rate of five shares of common stock per share of Series E Stock. Subsequently,
in June 1998, in conjunction with the common stock offering, the Company
converted 422,581 shares of Series E Stock into 2.1 million shares of common
stock. The remaining 607,745 million shares of Series E Stock are required to be
exchanged into shares of the Company's common stock no later than February 24,
1999, subject to certain conditions and such shares are paid quarterly dividends
at a rate of $0.12 per common stock equivalent.

The Company has pledged the capital stock of its U.S. subsidiaries, 65% of
capital stock of certain foreign subsidiaries and certain intercompany loans to
secure the senior debt of the Company. In addition, certain U.S.
subsidiaries of the Company have guaranteed the senior debt.


The Company believes that cash flow from operations, together with borrowings
available under the Company's revolving credit facility, will continue to be
sufficient to meet its ongoing working capital requirements.

Foreign Currency and Commodity Contracts

The financial condition and results of operations of certain of the Company's
operating entities are reported in various foreign currencies (principally
pounds sterling, German marks, and to a lesser extent South African rand and
French francs, among others) and then translated into U.S. dollars at the
applicable exchange rate for inclusion in the Company's financial statements. As
a result, the appreciation of the dollar against these foreign currencies will
have a negative impact on the reported sales and operating margin of
international T&N operations and other international subsidiaries as

                                      -38-
<PAGE>
 
consolidated into the Company. Conversely, the depreciation of the dollar
against these foreign currencies will have a positive impact.

In addition, the Company incurs currency transaction risk whenever it or one of
its international subsidiaries enters into either a purchase or sales
transaction using a different currency than the relevant entity's functional
currency. Currency transaction risk is reduced by matching revenues and costs
with the same currency. Given the volatility of currency exchange rates, there
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to effectively manage its
currency transaction risks or that any volatility in currency exchange rates
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.

OTHER MATTERS

New Dividend Policy

Dividends on the capital stock of the Company are payable at the discretion of
the Company's Board of Directors. Historically, quarterly dividends had been
$.12 per share. In May 1998, the Board of Directors reduced the quarterly
dividend and subsequently declared a cash dividend payable in the second and
third quarters of 1998 in the amount of $.0025 per share of common stock. The
Company, consistent with its growth strategy, presently intends to retain future
earnings in the business and therefore anticipates paying dividends at a
comparable level in the foreseeable future.

Year 2000 Costs

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. The Company has
established a team that has completed an awareness program and assessment
project to address the Year 2000 issue including information technology (IT) and
non-IT systems. In addition, the Board of Directors has received status reports
related to the Company's progress in addressing the Year 2000 issue. The Company
has determined that it will be required to modify or replace portions of its
software so that its computer systems will properly utilize dates beyond
December 31, 1999. The Company has initiated remediation and testing, and is
implementing the action plan to address the Year 2000 issue and estimates that
the majority of testing will be completed by the end of the first quarter of
1999. A number of independent third party assessments have been performed and
others are planned. The Company presently believes that with modifications to
existing software and conversions to new software, the Year 2000 issue can be
mitigated. However, if such modifications and conversions are not made, or are
not completed timely, the Year 2000 issue could cause production interruptions
that could have a material impact on the operations of the Company. The Company
has initiated development of contingency plans and will continue to do so
throughout the program.

The Company has initiated formal communications with a substantial majority of
its significant suppliers and large customers to determine their plans to
address the Year 2000 issue. While the Company expects a successful resolution
of all issues, there can be no guarantee that the systems of other companies on
which the Company's systems rely will be converted in a timely manner, or that a
failure to convert by a supplier or customer, or a conversion that is
incompatible with the Company's systems, would not have a material adverse
effect on the Company. The Company has determined it has no exposure to
contingencies related to the Year 2000 issue for the products it has sold.


                                      -39-
<PAGE>
 
The Company has contracts in place with external resources and has allocated
internal resources to reprogram or replace, and test the software for Year 2000
modifications. The Company plans to complete the Year 2000 project within one
year. The total cost of the Year 2000 project is estimated to be $25 million and
is being funded through operating cash flows. These estimates have been verified
by independent third party assessment. Of the total project cost, approximately
$11 million is attributable to the purchase of new software which will be
capitalized. The remaining $14 million represents maintenance and repair of
existing systems and will be expensed as incurred. The Company expects a
majority of the costs will be incurred in 1998. As of September 30, 1998, the
Company had incurred and expensed approximately $5 million related to the
completed awareness program and assessment project and the implementation of
their remediation plan.

The costs of the project and the date which the Company plans to complete the
Year 2000 modifications are based on management's best estimates, which were
derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events including the continued
availability of certain resources, third party modification plans and other
factors. However, there can be no guarantee that these estimates will be
achieved and actual results could differ materially from those plans. Specific
factors that might cause such material differences include, but are not limited
to, the availability and cost of personnel trained in this area, the ability to
locate and correct all relevant computer codes and similar uncertainties.

Euro Conversion

On January 1, 1999, certain member countries of the European Union are scheduled
to irrevocably fix the conversion rates between their national currencies and a
common currency, the "Euro", which will become their legal currency on that
date. The participating countries' former national currencies will continue to
exist as denominations of the Euro between January 1, 1999 and January 1, 2002.
The Company has established a steering committee that is currently evaluating
the business implications of conversion to the Euro, including the need to adapt
internal systems to accommodate Euro-denominated transactions. The acquisition
of T&N has provided the Company with a strong knowledge base in which to assist
with the conversion. While the Company is still in various stages of assessment
and implementation, the Company does not expect the conversion to the Euro to
have a material effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

Effect of Accounting Pronouncements

In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 130,
("SFAS No. 130") "Reporting Comprehensive Income". SFAS No. 130 establishes
standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. The company
adopted Statement 130 as of January 1, 1998. The adoption of this statement had
no impact on Federal Mogul's net earnings (loss) or shareholders' equity. SFAS
No. 130 requires foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains
or losses on investments and derivative instruments to be included in other
comprehensive income. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 130 these items were
reported as a component of shareholders' equity.

Total comprehensive income, net of the related estimated tax, was $47.1 million
and $15.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively and $22.9 million and $42.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which is required
to be adopted in years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company currently
makes minimal use of derivatives. Management does not anticipate, under current
circumstances, that the adoption of the new Statement will have a significant
effect on earnings or the financial position of the Company.
