·
Registration Statement No. 2-88003, filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 23, 1983, which registered an aggregate of 12,500 shares of the Company's capital stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Capital Stock"), and an indeterminate amount of plan interests to be offered and sold pursuant to the Rogers Employee Savings and Investment Plan (the "Plan");
·
Registration Statement No. 2-98471, filed by the Company with the SEC on June 19, 1985, which registered an aggregate of 25,000 shares of the Company's Capital Stock and an indeterminate amount of plan interests to be offered and sold pursuant to the Plan;
·
Registration Statement No. 33-26177, filed by the Company with the SEC on December 19, 1988, which registered an aggregate of 60,000 shares of the Company's Capital Stock and an indeterminate amount of plan interests to be offered and sold pursuant to the Plan; and
