Explanation of Responses:
(1) In accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement") dated as of August 14, 1997 by and among W. R. Grace & Co.
("Grace"), a subsidiary of Grace and Sealed Air Corporation ("Old Sealed
Air"), and pursuant to the Distribution Agreement (the "Distribution
Agreement") dated as of March 30, 1998, by and among Grace and two wholly-
owned subsidiaries of Grace, each share of Grace common stock, par value
$0.01 per share, became, on March 31, 1998, a right to receive .536 shares
of common stock, par value $0.10 per share, of Sealed Air Corporation
(formerly Grace) ("New Sealed Air"), and .475 shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.10 per share, of New Sealed Air.
(2) In accordance with the Merger Agreement and pursuant to the Employee
Benefits Allocation Agreement dated as of March 30, 1998 by and among Grace
and two wholly-owned subsidiaries of Grace, each option to purchase Grace
common stock held by a Grace employee who was to become an employee of
Sealed Air or one of its subsidiaries became, on March 31, 1998, an option
to purchase New Sealed Air common stock. The number of shares of New
Sealed Air common stock subject to the option was calculated by multiplying
the number of shares of Grace common stock subject to the option by 1.283.
The exercise price of the option for New Sealed Air common stock was
calculated by dividing the exercise price of the option for Grace common
stock by 1.283.
