Report of Independent Accountants
---------------------------------
To the Pension and Employee Benefit Committee of Engelhard Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of the of Engelhard Corporation Savings Plan for Hourly Paid Employees
at Attapulgus, Georgia as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the related
statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the plan at
December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the changes in it's net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules of assets
(held at end of year) as of December 31, 2002 and reportable transactions for
the year then ended are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are
not a required part of the financial statements but are supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's
management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements, and in our
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial
statements taken as a whole.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note 1 - Description of the Plan
The Engelhard Corporation Savings Plan for Hourly Paid Employees at
Attapulgus, Georgia (the "Plan"), effective as of May 1, 1998, is designed to
provide eligible employees of Engelhard Corporation (the "Company") an
opportunity to save part of their earnings by having the Company reduce their
compensation and contribute the amount of the reduction to the Plan on a tax
deferred basis.
The following plan description provides only general information.
Participants of the Plan should refer to the Plan Document for a more complete
description of plan provisions.
Eligibility
------------
Subject to certain limitations and restrictions, all employees of Engelhard
Corporation represented by Local 170 of the United Steel Workers of America are
eligible to participate in the Plan.
Contributions
--------------
The Plan permits eligible employees participating in the Plan the
opportunity to defer on a pre-tax basis up to 50 percent of their compensation,
as defined, subject to certain restrictions and limitations, and have the amount
contributed to the plan. Employees may also contribute 10 percent of their
compensation to the plan on a post tax basis. The Plan allows for catch-up
contributions for employees age 50 and over as allowed under the Internal
Revenue Code.
Matching Contributions
-----------------------
The Company will contribute, on a monthly basis and subject to certain
limitations and exclusions, either cash or common stock of the Company in an
amount equal to 50 percent of the first 6 percent contributed by the
Participants. Participants must have completed one year of service to be
eligible for a matching contribution.
Investments
------------
All contributions to the Plan are held and invested by Vanguard Fiduciary
Trust Company (the Trustee). The Trustee maintains the following fifteen
separate investment funds within the Plan:
a) The Company Stock Fund
b) The Fixed Income Fund (Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust).
c) The Windsor II Growth Fund (Vanguard Windsor II Fund).
d) The Windsor Growth Fund (Vanguard Windsor Fund).
e) The Balanced Fund (Vanguard Asset Allocation Fund).
f) The Equity Index Fund (Vanguard Growth and Income Fund).
g) The Small Cap Fund (Vanguard Small-Cap Index Fund).
h) The Life Strategy Growth Fund (Vanguard Life Strategy Growth
Fund).
6
i) The Life Strategy Conservative Growth Fund (Vanguard Life
Strategy Conservative Growth Fund).
j) The Vanguard U.S. Growth Fund.
k) The Life Strategy Moderate Growth Fund (Vanguard Life Strategy
Moderate Growth Fund).
l) The Prime Cap Funds (Vanguard PRIMECAP Fund).
m) The International Growth Fund (Vanguard International Growth
Fund).
n) The Life Strategy Income Fund (Vanguard Life Strategy Income
Fund).
o) The Short-Term Bond Fund (Vanguard Short-Term Corporate Fund).
Participants have the right to elect, subject to restrictions, the
investment fund or funds in which their contributions are invested. All matching
contributions are initially invested in the Company Stock Fund. Participants are
initially restricted from moving matching contributions out of the Company Stock
Fund until the funds become unrestricted. Current year matching contributions
become unrestricted at the rate of 25 percent per year.
Included in the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits are
non-participant directed funds that are included in the Company Stock Fund.
These amounts represent the restricted portion of the employee matching
contribution. The following describes the change in the balance during the year
ended December 31, 2002 and 2001.
2002 2001
---- ----
Balance at beginning of year $240,857 $123,767
Dividends 3,225 2,599
Net unrealized (depreciation)/appreciation (52,987) 45,901
Contributions 110,700 106,217
Transfer to unrestricted (64,998) (31,141)
Distributions (5,452) (10,008)
Other 2,802 3,522
-------- -------
Balance at end of year $234,147 $240,857
======== ========
Participant Accounts
---------------------
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions
and allocations of (a) the Company Contributions and (b) plan earnings including
realized gains/losses, unrealized appreciation/depreciation, and an allocation
of fund expenses. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account
balances, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the
benefit that can be provided from the participant's account.
Vesting
--------
Participants at all times have a fully vested and non-forfeitable interest
in their contributions and in the matching contributions allocated to their
account.
7
Termination
------------
Although it expects and intends to continue the Plan indefinitely, the
Company has reserved the right of the Board to terminate or amend the Plan.
Loan Provision
---------------
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to
a maximum equal to 50% of their fund balance or $50,000, whichever is less. The
loans are secured by the balance in the Participant's accounts and bear interest
at a reasonable rate as determined by the Company in accordance with applicable
laws and regulations. Principal and interest is paid ratably through monthly
payroll deductions. Loans are generally five years in duration unless the loan
is for the purchase of a primary residence in which case the term can be up to
ten years.
Distributions and Withdrawals
------------------------------
Upon termination of employment, as provided in the Plan Document, employees
generally have the option of taking a distribution, rolling the balance over
into another qualified plan, or leaving the money in the plan until retirement.
After-tax contributions may be withdrawn at any time, however the earnings on
the contribution will be subject to current income taxes as well as a penalty
for early withdrawal unless the participant has reached the age of 59 1/2. All
distributions are made in the form of cash except the balance in the Engelhard
Company Stock Fund may be made in the form of shares at the Participant's
discretion.
The Plan under certain circumstances permits hardship withdrawals. The
hardship withdrawals are only made in accordance with IRS guidelines and must be
approved in advance by the Employee Benefit Plans Administrative Committee.
Other
-----
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years figures to conform
to current years presentation.
Note 2 - Accounting Policies
The accounts of the Plan are maintained on an accrual basis. Purchases and
sales of investments are reflected on a trade date basis. Assets of the Plan are
valued at fair value. Gains and losses on distributions to Participants and
sales of investments are based on average cost.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of
stocks or mutual funds. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such
as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated
with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to
changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably
possible that changes in market value in the near term would materially affect
Participants' account balances and the amounts reported in the Statement of Net
Assets Available for Benefits and the Statement Changes in Net Assets Available
for Benefits.
8
Note 3 - Income Tax Status
The Plan filed for a determination letter from the Internal
Revenue Service in June 2002, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section
401 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). However, the plan
administrator believes that the Plan is qualified and, therefore, the related
trust is exempt from taxation.
Note 4 - Administrative Expenses
Expenses are incurred at either the fund level or the Plan level. All
expenses incurred by the fund (commissions, management fees, etc.) are paid out
of investor assets and are therefore netted in unrealized
appreciation/depreciation of investments in the statement of changes in net
assets available for benefits. Loan administration expenses are included in
other expenses in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.
Commissions on the purchase of Engelhard Corporation stock incurred when such
purchases are made in the stock market are netted in unrealized
appreciation/depreciation of investments in the statement of changes in net
assets available for benefits. The Company pays all other plan administrative
expenses.
Note 5 - Concentrations of Credit Risk
Investments in securities are generally exposed to various risks, such as
interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility risks.
Financial instruments which potentially subject the plan to concentration
of credit risk consist principally of investments in the Engelhard Corporation
Stock Fund. The plan limits the concentration of credit risk by allowing
participants, subject to the lapsing of restrictions, the opportunity to invest
in an array of mutual funds offered by the Vanguard Group.
9
Note 6 - Investments
Investments in the common stock of the Company are valued at the
readily-available, quoted market price as of the valuation date and investments
in the Vanguard Funds are valued based on the quoted net asset value (redemption
value) of the respective investment fund as of the valuation date.
Investments that represent more than 5% or more of fair value of the Plan's
net assets are as follows:
Investments 2002 2001
------------ ------------ ------------
Engelhard Corporation Company Stock Fund $ 1,391,193* $ 1,664,726*
Fixed Income Fund (Retirement Savings Trust) 335,577 207,509
Equity Index Fund (Growth and Income Portfolio) 170,353 176,478
*Includes assets that are non-participant directed (see Note 1).
Net realized/unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of
investments consists of the following at December 31, 2002 and 2001:
2002 2001
---- ----
Common Stock $(314,399) $412,181
Mutual Funds (131,518) (44,341)
------------ ------------
Total $(445,917) $367,840
============ ============
Note 7 - Related Party Transactions
For the 2002 plan year, the Company transferred 4,171 treasury stock shares
(representing a contribution dollar amount of $110,800) to Vanguard to fund the
employer match. The number of shares transferred each month represented the
employer matching contribution divided by the closing market price on the day
the contribution was remitted.
During the year in the ordinary course of doing business, various Vanguard
funds may take a position in Engelhard Corporation common stock. On February 12,
2002, the Vanguard Windsor Fund filed Form 13G with the Securities and Exchange
Commission indicating they held 10,454,200 shares or 8.06% of Company Stock. On
February 13, 2003 and amended Form 13G was filed indicating they held 9,566,700
or 7.49% of Company Stock.
