Abstract
Let M be a simple manifold, and F be a component of δ M of genus two. For a slope γ on F, we denote by M(γ) the manifold obtained by attaching a 2-handle to M along a regular neighborhood of γ on F. In this paper, we shall prove that there is at most one separating slope γ on F such that M(γ) is δ-reducible.
