shares, respectively, of Valhi common stock.  As already discussed, Valhi is the

direct holder of approximately 83.0% of the outstanding common stock of NL.

Pursuant to Delaware law, Valhi treats the shares of Valhi common stock that NL

purposes of this statement such shares are not deemed outstanding.



     Mr. Harold C. Simmons is chairman of the board of Valhi, VHC, Dixie Rice

and Contran and chairman of the board and chief executive officer of NL.



     By virtue of the holding of the offices, the stock ownership and his

service as trustee, all as described above, (a) Mr. Simmons may be deemed to

control the entities described above and (b) Mr. Simmons and certain of such

entities may be deemed to possess indirect beneficial ownership of the shares of
