               INFORMATION REGARDING CERTAIN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                       INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THIS
                             REGISTRATION STATEMENT

     On July 23, 2002, our Audit  Committee  recommended  and the Board approved
the  dismissal  of  Arthur  Andersen  LLP as our  independent  auditors.  Arthur
Andersen has been found guilty of federal  obstruction  of justice  arising from
the  government's  investigation of Enron Corp. It is likely that events arising
out of this  verdict  may  adversely  affect the  ability of Arthur  Andersen to
satisfy  any claims  against it  including  claims  that may arise out of Arthur
Andersen's  audit of our financial  statements  for the year ended  December 31,
2001, which are incorporated by reference into this registration statement.

     Section 11(a) of the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended (the  "Securities
Act"),  provides  that if any part of a  registration  statement  at the time it
becomes effective contains an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission
to state a material fact required to be stated  therein or necessary to make the
statements  therein not misleading,  any person acquiring a security pursuant to
the  registration  statement  (unless  it is  proved  that  at the  time  of the
acquisition  the person knew of the untruth or omission) may sue,  among others,
every  accountant who has consented to be named as having  prepared or certified
any part of the  registration  statement or as having  prepared or certified any
report or valuation which is used in connection with the registration statement,
with respect to the statement in the registration statement, report or valuation
that purports to have been prepared or certified by the accountant.

     Prior to the  date of this  registration  statement,  the  Arthur  Andersen
partners who were responsible for the audit of our financial  statements for the
year ended December 31, 2001, resigned from Arthur Andersen.  As a result, after
reasonable  efforts,  we have been unable to obtain  Arthur  Andersen's  written
consent to the  incorporation by reference into this  registration  statement of
its audit report with respect to our financial statements.

     Under these circumstances, Rule 437(a) under the Securities Act permits the
filing of this registration statement without including herein a written consent
from Arthur  Andersen.  Accordingly,  Arthur  Andersen  will not be liable under
Section 11(a) of the  Securities Act for  statements  made in this  registration
statement  because  it has not  consented  to being  named as an  expert  in the
registration statement. As a result, you will not be able to sue Arthur Andersen
pursuant to Section 11(a)(4) of the Securities Act and, therefore, your right of
recovery under that section may be limited as a result of the lack of consent.

ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

     Marine Products Corporation ("Marine Products") is a Delaware  corporation.
The following  summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete
text of the Delaware  General  Corporation  Law (the "DGCL"),  Marine  Products'
Certificate of Incorporation and Marine Products' Bylaws.

     Marine Products'  bylaws provides that it shall  indemnify,  to the fullest
extent  permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, each person who is involved in any
litigation or other  proceeding  because of his or her position as a director or
officer of Marine Products,  against all expense,  loss or liability  reasonably
incurred or suffered in connection with that litigation. Marine Products' bylaws
provide that it shall pay a director or officer  expenses  incurred in defending
any  proceeding  in  advance  of its final  disposition  upon its  receipt of an
undertaking, by or on behalf of the director or officer, to repay all amounts so
advanced  if it is  ultimately  determined  that the  director or officer is not
entitled to indemnification.

     Section 145 of the DGCL permits a corporation  to indemnify any director or
officer  of  the  corporation  against  expenses,   including  attorneys'  fees,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
in connection with any action,  suit or proceeding brought by reason of the fact
that the person is or was a  director  or  officer  of the  corporation,  if the
person acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably  believed to be in
or not opposed to the best  interests of the  corporation,  and, with respect to
any criminal  action or  proceeding,  if he had no reason to believe his conduct
was  unlawful.  In a  derivative  action,  indemnification  may be made only for
expenses  actually  and  reasonably  incurred  by any  director  or  officer  in
connection  with the  defense or  settlement  of an action or suit if the person
acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably  believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification
shall be made if the  person  shall  have been  adjudicated  to be liable to the
corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or
suit was brought determines that the defendant is fairly and reasonably entitled
to indemnity for these expenses despite an adjudication of liability.

     As  provided  for in  Section  102(b)(7)  of  the  DGCL,  Marine  Products'
certificate  of  incorporation  eliminates  the  liability  of a director to the
corporation or its  stockholders  for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary
duty as a director, except for liabilities arising:

o    from any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
     stockholders;

o    from  acts or  omissions  not in good  faith or which  involve  intentional
     misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

o    under Section 174 of the DGCL in connection with the payment of an unlawful
     dividend or unlawful stock purchase or redemption; or

o    from any transaction from which the director  derived an improper  personal
     benefit.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "1933 Act"),  may be permitted  to  directors,  officers or persons
controlling Marine Products pursuant to the foregoing  provision of the DGCL and
Marine Products'  Certificate of Incorporation  and Bylaws,  Marine Products has
been informed that  indemnification is considered by the Securities and Exchange
Commission to be against public policy and therefore unenforceable.

ITEM 7.  EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

ITEM 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

     (a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (1) To file,  during any period in which  offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

          (i) To include  any  prospectus  required  by Section  10(a)(3) of the
     Securities Act of 1933;

          (ii) To reflect in the  prospectus  any facts or events  arising after
     the  effective  date of the  registration  statement  (or the  most  recent
     post-effective amendment thereof) which,  individually or in the aggregate,
     represent  a  fundamental  change  in  the  information  set  forth  in the
     registration statement;

          (iii) To include any material  information with respect to the plan of
     distribution not previously disclosed in the registration  statement or any
     material change to such information in the registration statement;

     Provided,  however, that paragraph (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) shall not apply
     if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
     those  paragraphs is contained in periodic  reports filed by the Registrant
     pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the  Securities  Exchange Act of
     1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

     (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933,  each  such  post-effective  amendment  shall be deemed to be a new
registration  statement  relating to the  securities  offered  therein,  and the
offering of such  securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

     (3) To remove  registration by means of a  post-effective  amendment any of
the securities  being  registered  which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

     (b) The  undersigned  registrant  hereby  undertakes  that, for purposes of
determining  any liability  under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's  annual  report  pursuant to Section  13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934  (and,  where  applicable,  each  filing of an
employee  benefit  plan's  annual  report  pursuant  to  Section  15(d)  of  the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934)  that is  incorporated  by  reference  in the
registration  statement  shall  be  deemed  to be a new  registration  statement
relating to the securities offered therein,  and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                                      II-3



     (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and controlling  persons of
the Registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 6, or otherwise, the
Registrant  has been advised that in the opinion of the  Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore,  unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such  liabilities  (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director,  officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful  defense of any action,  suit or  proceedings)  is asserted by
such director,  officer or controlling  person in connection with the securities
being registered,  the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter  has  been  settled  by  controlling  precedent,  submit  to a  court  of
appropriate  jurisdiction  the question  whether such  indemnification  by it is
against  public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
