B Notes were originally issued on February 2, 1999, and then were exchanged for new 1999 Series B Notes when the 1998 Agreement was amended and restated on March 31, 2000. The Predecessor and its subsidiaries have now undertaken a corporate

subject to various judicial and administrative proceeding involving federal, state or local agencies. In these proceedings, an agency may seek to impose fines on the Company or to revoke, or to deny renewal of, an operating permit held by the
Company. In addition, the Company may become party to various claims and suits pending for alleged damages to persons and property, alleged violation of certain laws and for alleged liabilities arising out of matters occurring during the normal
