          (iii) Harold C. Simmons by virtue of his direct and indirect ownership
     of Class A Shares and his  positions  with Contran and certain of the other
     entities (as described in this Statement).

     By signing this Statement, each Reporting Person agrees that this Statement
is filed on its or his behalf.

     CGI  is the  direct  holder  of  50.0%  of the  5,169,880  Class  A  Shares
outstanding as of October 8, 2004 according to information the Company  provided
(the "Outstanding Class A Shares").

     CGI also directly holds 100%, or 10,000,000  shares, of the Company's class
B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class B Shares" and collectively
with the Class A Shares shall be referred to as the "Shares").  The  description
of the relative rights of the Shares as described in this Statement is qualified
in  its  entirety  by  the  terms  of  the  Company's  restated  certificate  of
incorporation  that is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to Amendment  No. 1 to the Company's
Registration  Statement  on Form S-1  filed  with the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  on  February 4, 1998 (Reg.  No.  333-42643),  which is  incorporated
herein by reference. As a result of its ownership of 50.0% of the Class A Shares
and 100% of the Class B Shares,  CGI directly holds  approximately  83.0% of the

voting stock of the Company. CGI may be deemed to control the Company.

respectively,  of the outstanding shares of CGI common stock and together may be
deemed to  control  CGI.  Valhi,  Tremont  and TFMC are the  direct  holders  of

to control TIMET. The ownership of Mr. Simmons' spouse is based on the 1,600,000
shares of TIMET's 6 3/4% Series A Convertible  Preferred  Stock, par value $0.01
per share (the "Series A Preferred  Stock"),  that she directly owns,  which are
convertible  into 2,666,666 shares of TIMET common stock. The ownership of Valhi
includes 24,500 shares of TIMET common stock that Valhi has the right to acquire
upon conversion of 14,700 shares of Series A Preferred Stock that Valhi directly
holds.  The  percentage  ownership  of TIMET  common  stock  held by each of Ms.
Simmons  and Valhi  assumes the full  conversion  of only the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock she or Valhi owns, respectively.

     VGI, National,  Contran, the Foundation,  the Contran Deferred Compensation
Trust No. 2 (the  "CDCT No.  2") and the CMRT are the  direct  holders of 77.6%,
9.1%,  3.4%,  0.9%, 0.4% and 0.1%,  respectively,  of the common stock of Valhi.
Together,  VGI,  National and Contran may be deemed to control Valhi.  National,
NOA and Dixie Holding are the direct holders of approximately  73.3%,  11.4% and

established for the benefit of certain  children and  grandchildren of Harold C.
Simmons (the "Trusts"), of which Mr. Simmons is the sole trustee, or held by Mr.
Simmons or persons or other entities related to Mr. Simmons.  As sole trustee of
the Trusts,  Mr. Simmons has the power to vote and direct the disposition of the
shares of Contran  stock held by the Trusts.  Mr.  Simmons,  however,  disclaims
beneficial ownership of any shares of Contran stock that the Trusts hold.

     The Foundation  directly holds approximately 0.9% of the outstanding shares
of Valhi common stock. The Foundation is a tax-exempt  foundation  organized for
charitable  purposes.  Harold C.  Simmons  is the  chairman  of the board of the
Foundation and may be deemed to control the Foundation.

     The CDCT No. 2 directly holds  approximately 0.4% of the outstanding shares
of Valhi common stock. U.S. Bank National  Association  serves as the trustee of
the CDCT No. 2.  Contran  established  the CDCT No. 2 as an  irrevocable  "rabbi
trust" to assist Contran in meeting certain  deferred  compensation  obligations
that it owes to Harold C. Simmons.  If the CDCT No. 2 assets are insufficient to
satisfy  such  obligations,  Contran is obligated to satisfy the balance of such
obligations  as they come due.  Pursuant to the terms of the CDCT No. 2, Contran
(i) retains the power to vote the shares of Valhi common stock held  directly by
the CDCT No. 2, (ii) retains dispositive power over such shares and (iii) may be
deemed the indirect beneficial owner of such shares.

     The CMRT directly holds  approximately  11.8% of the outstanding  shares of
TIMET common  stock and 0.1% of the  outstanding  shares of Valhi common  stock.
Valhi  established  the CMRT as a trust to permit the  collective  investment by
master trusts that maintain the assets of certain  employee  benefit plans Valhi
and related  companies adopt.  Harold C. Simmons is the sole trustee of the CMRT
and a member of the trust investment committee for the CMRT. Mr. Simmons is also
a participant  in one or more of the employee  benefit plans that invest through
the CMRT.

     Valmont Insurance Company  ("Valmont"),  NL and a subsidiary of NL directly
own 1,000,000 shares,  3,522,967 shares and 1,186,200 shares,  respectively,  of
Valhi common stock. Valhi is the direct holder of 100% of the outstanding shares
of  Valmont  common  stock and may be deemed to  control  Valmont.  Pursuant  to
Delaware law, Valhi treats the shares of Valhi common stock that Valmont, NL and
the  subsidiary  of NL own as  treasury  stock for voting  purposes  and for the
purposes of this Statement such shares are not deemed outstanding.



     Mr. Harold C. Simmons is chairman of the board and chief executive  officer
of NL, vice chairman of TIMET and chairman of the board of CGI, Tremont,  Valhi,
VGI, National, NOA, Dixie Holding, Dixie Rice, Southwest and Contran.

     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
that are directly held by CGI.  However,  Mr. Simmons  disclaims such beneficial
ownership of the Shares  beneficially owned,  directly or indirectly,  by any of
such  entities,  except  to the  extent  of  his  individual  vested  beneficial
interest,  if any, in the assets of the CMRT or his interest as a beneficiary of
the CDCT No. 2.

     Harold C.  Simmons'  spouse is the direct  owner of 20,000  Class A Shares,

     A trust of which Harold C. Simmons and his spouse are  co-trustees  and the
beneficiaries of which are the  grandchildren of his spouse is the direct holder

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

     Item 3 is amended as follows.

     Item 4 is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.



Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

     Item 4 is amended as follows.

     On September 24, 2004, NL acquired  10,000,000  Class B Shares from Valcor,
Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Valhi ("Valcor"),  and 374,000 Class A Shares
from Valhi,  at a purchase price of $16.25 per share,  or an aggregate  purchase
price of  approximately  $168.6  million (the  "Acquisition").  The terms of the
Acquisition are incorporated herein by reference to the Stock Purchase Agreement
dated September 24, 2004 among NL, Valhi and Valcor filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the
Current  Report on Form 8-K that NL filed with the U.S.  Securities and Exchange
Commission  ("SEC") on September 29, 2004 (the "Current  Report").  The purchase
price was paid by NL's  transfer  to Valhi and Valcor of $168.6  million of NL's
$200 million long-term note receivable from Kronos Worldwide, Inc., an affiliate
of NL and  Valhi.  The terms of the two  promissory  notes  payable to Valhi and
Valcor  are  incorporated  herein  by  reference  to  Exhibits  99.1  and  99.2,
respectively,  to the Current Report.  Previously, on May 20, 2004, NL announced
that it had established a Special Committee of its board of directors  comprised
of  directors  who  are  not  affiliated  with  Valhi  to  consider  a  possible
transaction  relating to the Shares.  Cypress Associates LLC served as financial
advisor to NL's  Special  Committee  and  rendered  an  opinion  to the  Special
Committee that the purchase price in the  Acquisition was fair, from a financial
point of view, to NL. Piper Rudnick LLP served as  independent  legal advisor to
NL's Special  Committee.  The boards of directors of Valhi and NL also  approved
the  Acquisition.  NL purchased such Shares as part of its plan to diversify its
holdings and business interests and for investment and tax planning purposes.

     Pursuant  to  a  Subscription  Agreement  (the  "Subscription   Agreement")
executed on October 5, 2004 but effective as of October 1, 2004, among NL, TFMC,
and CGI, NL and TFMC initially  capitalized CGI, a newly formed corporation,  by
each  contributing  to CGI effective  October 1, 2004 the  following  Shares and
receiving in return for such initial  capitalization of CGI the following shares
of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share of CGI (the "CGI Shares").   



                                                          CGI Shares Issued
                                                               to such
                      Class A Shares    Class B Shares    CGI Stockholder in
     CGI               Contributed       Contributed       Exchange for the
 Stockholder             to CGI            to CGI         Shares Contributed
---------------      ---------------   ---------------    -----------------
                                                 
NL..............         374,000         10,000,000           10,374.00
TFMC............       2,212,820                  0            2,212.82


     As a result of the  initial  contribution,  NL and TFMC became the sole CGI
stockholders and the record holders of 82.4% and 17.6% of the outstanding common
stock of CGI, respectively.

     Pursuant to the Subscription  Agreement,  CGI agreed that it would not sell
any of the Shares  contributed  to CGI by TFMC (as such  number of Shares may be
adjusted from time to time  pursuant to stock splits of, stock  dividends on, or
recapitalizations  of,  such  Shares)  pursuant  to the  Subscription  Agreement
without the express written consent of TFMC. In addition, in accordance with the
Subscription Agreement,  the parties entered into a Voting Agreement executed on
October 5, 2004 but effective as of October 1, 2004 (the "Voting Agreement").

     The terms of the Voting Agreement provide that:

          (1) NL will vote all of its CGI Shares to elect as a  director  of CGI
     one person designated in writing by TFMC;

          (2) The initial person  designated by TFMC to be elected a director of
     CGI  would be J.  Landis  Martin,  the  chairman  of the  board  and  chief
     executive officer of TIMET; and

          (3) The CGI board of directors  would be comprised of five persons and
     each CGI stockholder would take or cause to be taken all action to:

               (i) require that the certificate of  incorporation  and bylaws of
          CGI provides for a board of directors of five persons; and

               (ii) ensure at all times that the  certificate  of  incorporation
          and  bylaws  of CGI  would  not at any time be  inconsistent  with the
          provisions of the Voting Agreement.



     Pursuant  to  CGI's  certificate  of  incorporation  (the  "Certificate  of
Incorporation"), upon the written request of a CGI stockholder, CGI is obligated
to redeem such number of the  stockholder's  shares of CGI common stock that the
stockholder  requests.  The CGI stockholder is also entitled to elect to receive
as part of the  redemption  price  such  number of Class A or Class B Shares the
stockholder  or its  predecessor  holders or assigns  contributed to CGI that is
equal to the  product of 1,000  (equitably  adjusted  for any  applicable  stock
splits of, stock dividends on, or recapitalizations  of, CompX common stock) and
the  number of CGI  shares to be  redeemed.  CGI's  board of  directors  is then
obligated  to  determine  in good faith and in its best  business  judgment  the
redemption price.  Pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation,  in determining
the redemption  price, the board of directors shall value each Share held by CGI
(both the Class A and Class B Shares) at the volume weighted average sales price
of a  Class  A Share  as  reported  on the New  York  Stock  Exchange  composite
transactions  reporting  system for the ten  trading  days ending on the day CGI
receives the redemption request.

     With the  initial  capitalization  of CGI,  CompX  became  eligible to file
consolidated returns of federal income taxes with NL and Contran Corporation,  a
Delaware  corporation and the parent of NL and CompX  ("Contran").  Concurrently
with the initial capitalization of CGI, CompX, NL and Contran entered into a Tax
Agreement  executed on October 5, 2004 but  effective as of October 1, 2004 (the
"Tax  Agreement").  The  Tax  Agreement  provides  that  NL and  its  qualifying
subsidiaries,  including  CompX,  compute  provisions for U.S. income taxes on a
separate-company basis using the tax elections made by Contran.  Pursuant to the
Tax  Agreement  and using the tax  elections  made by  Contran,  CompX will make
payments  to, or receive  payments  from NL, in amounts it would have paid to or
received from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service had it not been a member of NL's
consolidated tax group but instead was a separate taxpayer. Refunds to CompX are
generally limited to amounts previously paid under the Tax Sharing Agreement.

     The descriptions of the Subscription Agreement,  the Voting Agreement,  the
Certificate  of  Incorporation  and the Tax  Agreement  in  this  Statement  are
qualified  in their  entirety  by the  terms of the  actual  documents  filed as
Exhibits 99.1 through 99.4 to the Current  Report on Form 8-K that NL filed with
the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  on October 8, 2004 and  incorporated
herein by reference.

     Depending  upon their  evaluation of the Company's  business and prospects,
and upon future developments (including,  but not limited to, performance of the
Class A Shares in the market,  availability of funds, alternative uses of funds,
and money, stock market and general economic  conditions),  any of the Reporting
Persons or other  entities that may be deemed to be affiliated  with Contran may
from time to time purchase  Shares,  and any of the  Reporting  Persons or other
entities that may be deemed to be affiliated  with Contran may from time to time
dispose of all or a portion of the Shares held by such  person,  or cease buying
or selling Shares.  Any such  additional  purchases or sales of Shares may be in
open market or privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.



     The information included in Item 2 of this Statement is hereby incorporated
herein by  reference.  As described  under Item 2 of this  Statement,  Harold C.
Simmons may be deemed to control the Company.

Item 6.  Contracts,  Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships  With Respect

     Item 6 is amended as follows.

     TIMET, TFMC and certain other subsidiaries of TIMET are parties to a $105.0

2000,  as  amended  and  supplemented   through  June  2,  2004  (the  "Congress
Facility"), with Congress Financial Corporation (Southwest)("Congress"). TFMC is
a guarantor of the Congress  Facility.  Borrowings  under the Congress  Facility

Facility  requires  TIMET's  U.S.  daily  cash  receipts  to be used  to  reduce
outstanding  borrowings,  which may then be reborrowed,  subject to the terms of
the agreement.  As of October 8, 2004, CGI had pledged  2,242,820 Class A Shares
under the  Congress  Facility  pursuant  to an  Investment  Property  Pledge and
Security  Agreement  the  terms of which  are set  forth in  Exhibit  14 to this
