------------------
(1) The Company and its subsidiaries were reorganized into a new holding
company structure ("Corporate Reorganization") on July 26, 1994. Prior to the
Corporate Reorganization, all directors of the Company who were directors at the
time of the Corporate Reorganization were directors of Wheeling-Pittsburgh
Corporation.

Directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company or its
subsidiaries are entitled to receive compensation for serving as directors in
the amount of $40,000 per annum and $1,000 per Board Meeting, $800 per Committee
Meeting attended in person and $500 per telephonic meeting other than the Stock
Option Committee, and $1,000 per day of consultation and other services provided
other than at meetings of the Board or Committees thereof, at the request of the
Chairman of the Board. Committee Chairmen also receive an additional annual fee
of $1,800. Directors of the Company (other than the Chairman of the Board or
directors who are employees of the Company or its subsidiaries) also receive
options to purchase 8,000 shares of Common Stock per annum on the date of each
annual meeting of stockholders up to a maximum of 40,000 shares of Common Stock
pursuant to the Company's 1993 Directors and Non-Employee Officers Stock Option
Plan (the "1993 Plan"). All directors of the Company permitted to participate in
the 1993 Plan have received the maximum number of shares permitted to be issued
thereunder. In addition, directors of the Company (other than the Chairman of
the Board or directors who are employees of the Company or its subsidiaries)
also received options to purchase 25,000 shares of Common Stock on December 1,
1997 and receive options to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock per annum on
the date of each annual meeting of stockholders up to a maximum of 40,000 shares
of Common Stock pursuant to the Company's 1997 Directors Stock Option Plan (the
"1997 Plan"). All directors of the Company permitted to participate in the 1997
Plan have received the maximum number of shares permitted to be issued
thereunder.

On July 13, 2001, directors William Goldsmith and Raymond S. Troubh
received options to purchase 30,000 shares of Common Stock, directors Robert A.
Davidow and Marvin L. Olshan received options to purchase 35,000 shares of
Common Stock, and directors Robert D. LeBlanc and Neil D. Arnold received
options to purchase 160,000 shares of Common Stock. 33.33% of these options vest
on the date of grant, 33.33% on the first anniversary of the grant date and
33.34% on the second anniversary of the grant date.

Pursuant to a management agreement effective as of January 3, 1991,
as amended (the "Management Agreement"), approved by a majority of the Company's
disinterested directors, WPN Corp. ("WPN"), of which Ronald LaBow, the Chairman
of the Board of the Company, is the sole stockholder and an officer and
director, provides financial, management, advisory and consulting services to
the Company, subject to the supervision and control of the Company's
disinterested directors. The Management Agreement has a two-year term and is
renewable automatically for successive two-year periods, unless terminated by
either party upon 60 days' notice prior to the renewal date. In 2001, WPN
received a monthly fee of $520,833.33. WPN Corp. also receives certain benefits
from financial intermediaries which it transacts business with on behalf of the
Company in the form of research materials and services, which are used by WPN

Corp. on behalf of the Company and in connection with its other activities. For
the fiscal year 2001, the amount of such reimbursement was approximately
$75,000. The Company believes that the cost of obtaining the type and quality of
services rendered by WPN under the Management Agreement is no less favorable
than that at which the Company could obtain such services from unaffiliated
entities. See "Item 11 -- Executive Compensation -- Management Agreement with
WPN."

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the
Company's executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own
more than ten percent (10%) of a registered class of the Company's equity
securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, under Section 16(a), trusts for
which a reporting person is a trustee and a beneficiary (or for which a member
of his immediate family is a beneficiary) may have a separate reporting
obligation with regard to ownership of the Common Stock and other equity
securities of the Company. Such reporting persons are required by rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission to furnish the Company with copies of all
Section 16(a) reports they file. Based solely upon a review of the copies of
such forms furnished to the Company and written representations from the
Company's executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent (10%)
beneficial stockholders, the Company believes that during the year ended
December 31, 2001, all persons subject to the reporting requirements of Section
16(a) filed the required reports on a timely basis, except for a Form 5 which
was inadvertently filed late by one director.

(1) On December 31, 2001, the last reported sales price of the Common Stock as
reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape was $1.54.

Long-Term Incentive and Pension Plans. Other than as described
below, the Company does not have any long-term incentive or defined benefit
pension plans.

In January 1999, H&H amended and restated its Long Term Incentive
Plan ("LTIP"), in which the final cycle had been terminated on December 31,
1998. The current LTIP is a performance-based plan pursuant to which executives
of H&H earn the right to receive awards based on the achievement of
pre-established financial performance and other goals. The amended LTIP
established overlapping cycles with each cycle encompassing five fiscal years,
commencing on January 1, 1999. LTIP participants are selected by H&H's Chief
Executive Officer and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of
the Company. Messrs. LeBlanc and Hynes are the only Named Executive Officers who
are participants in the Amended and Restated LTIP.

H&H maintains the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") to
provide executive officers the amount of reduction in their formula pension
benefits under the WHX Pension Plan on account of the limitation on pay under
Section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") and the limitation on
benefits under Section 415 of the IRC. The SERP also applies the WHX Pension
Plan formula to the Career Average Pay after including 100 percent of the
amounts received under the Handy & Harman Management Incentive Plan. Amounts
received under the SERP are not subject to Cost of Living increases.

The following Table shows the projected Annual Retirement Benefits,
payable on the basis of ten years of certain payments and thereafter for life,
to each of the individuals listed in the Summary Compensation Table at age 65
assuming continuation of employment until age 65. The amounts shown under Salary
reflect the current rate of salary as plan compensation for Messrs. LeBlanc and
Hynes of $460,000 and $200,000, respectively, and includes the benefits payable
under both the WHX Pension Plan and the SERP. The amount of benefits shown under
Bonus would be payable under the SERP and assumes continuation of the amount of
Bonus received on average over the prior 3 fiscal years.

Executive Pension Benefits

Normal Retirement Annual Retirement Benefits From:
Name Date (NRD) Service at NRD Salary Bonus Total
---- ---------- -------------- ------ ----- -----
R.D. LeBlanc July 1, 2014 17 yrs. 8 mos. $155,708 $ 57,648 $213,556
R. K. Hynes Sept. 1, 2019 30 yrs. 1 mos. $91,823 $27,476 $119,299

In 1998 WPC established a supplemental defined benefit plan covering
WPC salaried employees employed as of January 31, 1998 which provides a
guaranteed minimum benefit based on years of service and compensation. The gross
benefit from this plan is offset by the annuitized value of the defined
contribution plan account balance and any benefits payable from the Pension
Benefit Guaranty Corporation from the previously terminated defined benefit
pension plan. None of the Named Executive Officers are entitled to any benefits
under such plan.

Deferred Compensation Agreements. Except as described in the next
paragraph with respect to the employment agreements of Messrs. LeBlanc, Bradley
and Hynes, no plan or arrangement exists which results in compensation to a
Named Executive Officer in excess of $100,000 upon such officer's future
termination of employment or upon a change-of-control.

Employment Agreements. Mr. Robert D. LeBlanc became Executive Vice
President of the Company pursuant to a three-year employment agreement dated as
of April 7, 1998, which is automatically extended for successive two-year
periods unless earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of such agreement.
The agreement provides for an annual salary to Mr. LeBlanc of no less than
$400,000 and an annual bonus to be awarded at the Company's sole discretion. Mr.
LeBlanc was granted a bonus of $175,000 in 2001 for services performed in 2000.
Mr. LeBlanc was not granted a bonus in 2002 for services performed in 2001. In
the event that Mr. LeBlanc's employment is terminated by the Company other than
with cause, he will receive a payment of two year's salary at the highest rate
in effect for the twelve preceding months plus two times his average bonus
during the last three preceding years.

Mr. James G. Bradley became President and Chief Executive Officer of
WPSC and Executive Vice President of the Company pursuant to a three-year
employment agreement dated as of April 23, 1998, which is automatically extended
for successive three-year periods unless earlier terminated pursuant to the
provisions of such agreement. The agreement provides for an annual salary to Mr.
Bradley of $400,000 and an annual bonus to be awarded at the Company's sole
discretion. Mr. Bradley was not granted bonuses in 2002 and 2001 for services
performed in 2001 and 2000. In the event that Mr. Bradley's employment is
terminated by the Company other than with cause, he will receive a payment of
$1,200,000.

Mr. Robert K. Hynes became Vice President-Finance of the Company
pursuant to a one-year employment agreement dated July 1, 2001, which will be
automatically extended for successive one-year periods unless earlier terminated
pursuant to the provisions of such agreement. The agreement provides for an
annual salary to Mr. Hynes of no less than $200,000 and an annual bonus to be

awarded at the Company's sole discretion. Mr. Hynes was granted a bonus of
$15,000 in 2002 for services performed in 2001. In the event that Mr. Hynes'
employment is terminated by the Company other than with cause, he will receive a
payment of one year's base salary at the highest rate in effect for the twelve
preceding months plus bonus plan and compensation accrued.

Report on Repricing of Options. None of the stock options granted
under any of the Company's plans were repriced in the fiscal year ended 2001.

Compensation Committee Interlock and Insider Participation. Messrs.
Davidow, Goldsmith and Olshan each served as a member of the Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors during the fiscal year ended December 31,
2001. Mr. Olshan is a member of Olshan Grundman Frome Rosenzweig & Wolosky LLP,
which the Company has retained as outside general counsel since January 1991.
The Company has paid such firm approximately $695,000 during the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2001.

Management Agreement with WPN Corp. Pursuant to the Management
Agreement, approved by a majority of the Company's disinterested directors, WPN,
of which Ronald LaBow, the Chairman of the Board of the Company, is the sole
stockholder and an officer and director, provides financial, management,
advisory and consulting services to the Company, subject to the supervision and
control of the disinterested directors. Such services include, among others,
identification, evaluation and negotiation of acquisitions, responsibility for
financing matters, review of annual and quarterly budgets, supervision and
administration, as appropriate, of all the Company's accounting and financial
functions and review and supervision of the Company's reporting obligations
under Federal and state securities laws. For fiscal year 2001, 2000 and 1999,
WPN received a monthly fee of $520,833.33. In addition, in October 1999 the
Board of Directors also awarded a $3,280,000 bonus to WPN in recognition of the
extraordinary returns earned by WPN on behalf of the Company in its management
of the Company's cash and marketable securities. In August 1997, the Company
granted WPN options to acquire 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock. Such options
are held by WPN as nominee for Ronald LaBow, Stewart E. Tabin and Neale X.
Trangucci, each of whom is an officer of WPN, and has the right to acquire
600,000, 200,000 and 200,000 shares, respectively, of Common Stock. WPN
additionally beneficially owns options to purchase 982,500 shares of Common
Stock. The weighted average exercise price of all such options is $10.23. None
of these options were exercised in 2001. The Company provides indemnification
for WPN's employees, officers and directors against any liability, obligation or
loss resulting from their actions pursuant to the Management Agreement. The
Management Agreement has a two year term and is renewable automatically for
successive two year periods, unless terminated by either party upon 60 days'
notice prior to the renewal date. WPN Corp. also receives certain benefits from
financial intermediaries which it transacts business with on behalf of the
Company in the form of research materials and services, which are used by WPN
Corp. on behalf of the Company and in connection with its other activities. For
the fiscal year 2001, the amount of such reimbursement was approximately
$75,000. WPN has not derived any other income and has not received reimbursement
of any of its expenses (other than health benefits and standard directors' fees)
from the Company in connection with the performance of services described above.
The Company believes that the cost of obtaining the type and quality of services
rendered by WPN under the Management Agreement is no less favorable than the
cost at which the Company could obtain from unaffiliated entities.

Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Filing of Wheeling-Pittsburgh Corporation and
its Subsidiaries

On November 16, 2000, Wheeling-Pittsburgh Corporation and its
subsidiaries, including Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel Corporation (together, the
"WPC Group") filed voluntary petitions (the "Chapter 11 Filings") to reorganize
their businesses under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Code. The Chapter 11 Filings were
made in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Ohio.
The WPC Group is in possession of its properties and assets and continues to
manage its businesses with its existing directors and officers as
debtors-in-possession subject to the supervision of the bankruptcy court.

Management Agreement

Pursuant to the Management Agreement approved by a majority of the
Company's disinterested directors, WPN, of which Ronald LaBow, the Company's
Chairman, is the sole stockholder and an officer and a director, provides the
Company with financial, management, advisory and consulting services to the
Company, subject to the supervision and control of the disinterested directors.
The Management Agreement has a two year term and is renewable automatically for
successive two year periods, unless terminated by either party upon 60 days
notice prior to the renewal date. The Company believes that the cost of

Agreement is no less favorable than the cost at which the Company could obtain

Agreement with WPN."
