                                      APPENDIX                                        

          1.     An epoxy adhesive composition                                        
          comprising:                                                                 
          (a) a major amount of an epoxy resin having an average                      
          epoxide functionality of greater than one;                                  
          (b) an oligomeric polyester which is, on average,                           
          terminated by at least two hydroxyl groups and which is                     
          the reaction product of starting materials comprising:                      
          (i) a dicarboxylic acid, a dicarboxylic acid derivative or a                
          mixture of one or more of the foregoing, each comprising a                  
          moiety linking the carboxyl groups thereof separating the                   
          carboxyl groups by about one to about ten carbon atoms and                  
          each further comprising an appended alkyl group comprising                  
          about eight to about thirty carbon atoms; and                               
          (ii) an aliphatic polyol, a cycloaliphatic polyol, an alkanol               
          substituted arene polyol, or a mixture of one or more of the                
          foregoing, the polyol comprising from about three to about ten              
          carbon atoms and at least two hydroxy groups being primary or               
          secondary;                                                                  
          and                                                                         
          (c) a catalytically effective amount of an acid                             
          catalyst.
