Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.(1) ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION. ---------------------- Item 4 is hereby amended by adding the following immediately before the final three paragraphs thereof: On November 24, 2004, LXH and LXH II provided the Company with written notice, pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) of the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, of the exercise of one of their three demand registration rights and requested that the Company file a registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to an aggregate of 11,100,086 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by LXH and LXH II. The intended method of distribution of such shares of Common Stock is an underwritten public offering (the "Registered Offering"). Goldman Sachs will act as an underwriter in the Registered Offering. Even though LXH and LXH II (i) have exercised one of their demand registration rights to cause the Company to register the sale of 11,100,086 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by LXH and LXH II and (ii) presently intend to dispose of all such shares in the Registered Offering, depending on market conditions and other factors in existence at the time of any such disposition, there can be no assurance that a registration statement with respect to the sale of such shares will be declared effective by the SEC or that such shares will ultimately be sold pursuant to such registration statement. - -------- 1 Neither the present filing nor anything contained herein will be construed as an admission that any Filing Person constitutes a "person" for any purpose other than for compliance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On November 24, 2004, the Company advised LXH and LXH II that the Other Purchasers were exercising their piggyback registration rights pursuant to Section 2.2 of the registration rights agreement, dated as of March 19, 2003, among the Company and the Other Purchasers, and, in connection therewith, will convert 14,466 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 77,875 shares of Series B Preferred Stock beneficially owned by them into an aggregate of 9,899,914 shares of Common Stock. ITEM 5.

Mehra has an understanding with GS Group pursuant to which he holds the options and restricted stock units described above in (A)(I) through (A)(VI) for the benefit of GS Group), and (B) (I) 10,000 options granted to Mr. Sacerdote on December 19, 2000 pursuant to the Hexcel Incentive Stock Plan, of which all of such options are currently exercisable for 10,000 shares of Common Stock, (II) 2,000 options granted to Mr. Sacerdote on May 10, 2001 pursuant to the Hexcel Incentive Stock Plan, of which all of such options are currently exercisable for 2,000 shares of Common Stock, (III) 2,000 options granted to Mr. Sacerdote on May 9, 2002 pursuant to the Hexcel Incentive Stock Plan, of which all of such options are currently exercisable for 2,000 shares of Common Stock, (IV) 2,000 options granted to Mr. Sacerdote on May 22, 2003 pursuant to the Hexcel Incentive Stock Plan, of which two-thirds of such options are currently exercisable for 1,334 shares of Common Stock and the remaining one-third of such options will vest and become exercisable on May 22, 2005, and (V) 1,590 restricted stock units granted to Mr. Sacerdote on November 16, 2004 pursuant to the Hexcel Incentive Stock Plan, of which one-third of such restricted stock units vested on the date of grant, an additional one-third of such restricted stock units will vest on November 16, 2005, the remaining one-third of such restricted stock units will vest on November 16, 2006 and all of such restricted stock units will convert into an equal number of shares of Common Stock on November 16, 2006 (Peter M. Sacerdote has an understanding with GS Group pursuant to which he holds the options and restricted stock units described above in (B)(I) through (B)(V) for the benefit of GS Group); (iii) 47,125 shares of Series A Preferred Stock that are beneficially owned by the Limited Partnerships, as described below, and that are convertible into 15,708,332 shares of Common Stock; (iv) 47,125 shares of Series B Preferred Stock that are beneficially owned by the Limited Partnerships, as described below, and that are convertible into 3,072,830 shares of Common Stock; and (v) 100 shares of Common Stock acquired by Goldman Sachs in ordinary course trading activities. The shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by GS Group represent approximately 56.3% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, based on there being 40,381,080 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 22, 2004, as disclosed in the Company's registration statement on Form S-3 filed on November 24, 2004 (the "November 2004 S-3"). The foregoing percentage was calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1) of the Exchange Act, which specifically excludes from such calculation all securities not outstanding which are subject to options, warrants, rights or conversion privileges and which are beneficially owned by any person other than GS Group. Accordingly, such calculation does not include (i) the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock and (ii) the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of currently exercisable options or options that become exercisable within 60 days, in the case of each of (i) and (ii), which are beneficially owned by any person other than GS Group. All outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, on an as-converted basis, on all matters put to a vote or consent of the holders of Common Stock. Therefore, in any such vote or consent, as of November 24, 2004, GS Group will have the power to vote shares representing approximately 36.9% of the total number of votes that may be cast on any such matter. As of November 24, 2004, Goldman Sachs may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 33,306,262 shares of Common Stock, consisting of: (i) 14,525,000 shares of Common Stock that are beneficially owned by the Original Purchasers, as described below; (ii) 47,125 shares of Series A Preferred Stock that are beneficially owned by the Limited Partnerships, as described below, and that are convertible into 15,708,332 shares of Common Stock; (iii) 47,125 shares of Series B Preferred Stock that are beneficially owned by the Limited Partnerships, as described below, and that are convertible into 3,072,830 shares of Common Stock; and (iv) 100 shares of Common Stock acquired by Goldman Sachs in ordinary course trading activities.

Therefore, in any such vote or consent, as of November 24, 2004, Goldman Sachs will have the power to vote shares representing approximately 36.9% of the total number of votes that may be cast on any such matter. GS Group and Goldman Sachs disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Original Purchasers and the Limited Partnerships to the extent that partnership or membership interests, as the case may be, in the Limited Partnerships are held by persons other than Goldman Sachs or its affiliates. In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998), this filing reflects the securities beneficially owned by the investment banking division of GS Group and its subsidiaries and affiliates (the "Investment Banking Division"). This filing does not reflect securities, if any, beneficially owned by any other operating unit of GS Group and its subsidiaries and affiliates.

Ulrika Werdelin Vice President Executive Director of Goldman Sachs International SCHEDULE II-D-ii Schedule II-D-ii is hereby deleted in its entirety. SCHEDULE III Schedule III is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: On April 6, 2000, in connection with an industry-wide investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") relating to the pricing of government securities in advance refunding transactions, Goldman, Sachs & Co. ("Goldman Sachs") joined in a global settlement resolving the SEC investigation as well as a related qui tam lawsuit purportedly brought on behalf of the United States entitled United States ex rel. Lissack v. Goldman, Sachs & Co., et al., 95 Civ. 1363 (S.D.N.Y.)(BSJ). Pursuant to the settlement, without admitting or denying the findings, Goldman Sachs consented to the issuance of an SEC administrative order (SEA Rel. No. 42640) which, among other things, found that Goldman Sachs had violated Sections 17(a)(2) and (3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), in connection with such pricing of government securities, required Goldman Sachs to cease and desist from violating such provisions, and ordered Goldman Sachs to make payments totaling approximately $5.1 million to the U.S. Treasury and $104,000 to two municipalities. Under the global settlement, the qui tam lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice, and the Internal Revenue Service agreed not to challenge the tax-free nature of the refundings by virtue of the pricing of such securities. In November 2002, the SEC, the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD") and the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE") alleged that five broker dealers, including Goldman Sachs, violated Section 17(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and Rule 17a-4 thereunder, NYSE Rules 440 and 342 and NASD Rules 3010 and 3110, by allegedly failing to preserve electronic mail communications for three years and/or to preserve electronic mail communications for the first two years in an accessible place, and by allegedly having inadequate supervisory systems and procedures in relation to the retention of electronic mail communications. Without admitting or denying the allegations, the five broker dealers, including Goldman Sachs, consented to censure by the SEC, NASD and NYSE and to the imposition of a cease-and-desist order by the SEC, and Goldman Sachs paid a total fine of $1,650,000 ($550,000 each to the SEC, NASD and NYSE). Goldman Sachs also undertook to review its procedures regarding the preservation of electronic mail communications for compliance with the federal securities laws and regulations and the rules of the NASD and NYSE, and to confirm within a specified period of time that it has established systems and procedures reasonably designed to achieve compliance with those laws, regulations and rules. On April 28, 2003, without admitting or denying liability, ten investment banking firms, including Goldman Sachs, entered into global settlements with the SEC, the NYSE, the NASD and certain states to resolve the investigations relating to equity research analyst conflicts of interest. Goldman Sachs was charged with violating NYSE Rules 342, 401, 472 and 475, and NASD Conduct Rules 2110, 2210 and 3010. Goldman Sachs also agreed to a censure by the NYSE and the NASD and to pay a total of $110,000,000 and to adopt a set of industry-wide reforms of its research and investment banking businesses and to adopt certain restrictions on the allocations of "hot" IPO shares. The terms of the global settlement were entered in an order by a federal court in the Southern District of New York on October 31, 2003 (Civil Action Number 03CV2944). On September 4, 2003, Goldman Sachs and the SEC settled administrative proceedings relating to certain trading in U.S. Treasury securities by Goldman Sachs on the morning of October 31, 2001. The Staff of the SEC alleged that Goldman Sachs violated (i) Section 15(c)(1) and Rule 15c1-2 of the Exchange Act as a result of certain trading in U.S. Treasury bonds over an eight minute period on October 31, 2001, and (ii) Section 15(f) of the Exchange Act by failing to maintain policies and procedures specifically addressed to the possible misuse of non-public information obtained from outside consultants. Under the Offer of Settlement submitted by Goldman Sachs and accepted by the SEC, without admitting or denying the SEC's allegations, Goldman Sachs consented to the entry of an Order that, among other things, (i) censured Goldman Sachs, (ii) directed Goldman Sachs to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 15(c)(1)(A) & (C) and 15(f) and Rule 15c1-2 of the Exchange Act, (iii) ordered Goldman Sachs to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest in the amount of $1,742,642, and a civil monetary penalty of $5 million, and (iv) directed Goldman Sachs to conduct a review of its policies and procedures and to adopt, implement and maintain policies and procedures consistent with the Order and that review. Goldman Sachs also undertook to pay $2,562,740 in disgorgement and interest relating to certain trading in U.S. Treasury bond futures during the same eight minute period. On July 1, 2004, Goldman Sachs and the SEC settled administrative proceedings relating to communications from Goldman Sachs sales traders on its Asian Shares Sales Desk to certain institutional customers and news media concerning four international public securities offerings during the period between October 1999 and March 2000. The SEC alleged (i) that certain of these communications by Goldman Sachs employees were made after the registration statements pertaining to those offerings were filed, but not yet declared effective by the SEC, in violation of Section 5(b) of the Securities Act, and (ii) that certain comments to the news media by Goldman Sachs with respect to one of the offerings constituted an offer to sell securities in violation of Section 5(c) of the Securities Act. The SEC also alleged that Goldman Sachs failed to adequately supervise the Asian Shares Sales Desk traders, as required by Section 15(b)(4)(E) of the Exchange Act. Under the Offer of Settlement submitted by Goldman Sachs and accepted by the SEC, without admitting or denying the SEC's allegations, Goldman Sachs consented to the entry of an Order that, among other things, directed Goldman Sachs to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Sections 5(b) and 5(c) of the Securities Act., and ordered Goldman Sachs to pay a civil monetary penalty of $2 million.
