AMERICAN ROCK SALT COMPANY LLC

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. The Company

American Rock Salt Company LLC (the
Company) primarily sells bulk rock salt for use in deicing roads. The Company bids on supply contracts for salt produced at the Hampton Corners Mine to be provided to state Departments of Transportation and local municipalities as well
as industrial consumers throughout the Northeastern United States. The Company was formed on January 30, 1997. Construction of the Hampton Corners Mine began in November 1998 and it was substantially completed in December 2001. The Company
steadily increased sales as production and distribution capacity came online during a ramp-up phase in fiscal 2001 and 2002. The Company attained full operating capacity during fiscal 2003.

2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2006 included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on December 28, 2006. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of
normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2007 are not indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year due,
in part, to seasonal fluctuations, which are normal for the Companys business. Further, the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and
the reporting of revenues and expenses to prepare these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The balance sheet at September 30, 2006 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all the information
and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

No provision is
made for income taxes in the accompanying financial statements as the Company is a limited liability company that elected partnership status. The taxable income or loss and any available credits of the Company are includable on the individual income
tax returns of the members.

In connection with the Companys filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
June 30, 2006, the Company made a change to the manner in which it presents cost of sales. The prior period information presented in this Form 10-Q (cost of sales data for the three- and six-month periods ended March 31, 2006) has been
reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The nature of the reclassification was a decrease to cost of sales - products and an increase to cost of sales - freight, handling, and other, in the amount of $470,000 and $845,000, for
the three- and six month periods ended March 31, 2006, respectively. No other financial statement captions were impacted by this change.

The Companys bank facility in the aggregate principal amount of $52.6 million consists of:
(a) a $22.6 million term loan facility, and (b) a $30.0 million working capital facility. Both the term loan and the working capital facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus up to 3.5%, based on a pricing grid
leverage ratio or a base rate (the higher of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% or the prime rate plus the applicable margin for base rate loans), at the Companys option. The term loan facility has a maturity of eight years commencing
March 17, 2004. The working capital facility has an initial term of five years commencing March 17, 2004.

At March 31, 2007
a balance of $22.6 million was outstanding under the term loan facility which bears interest at a rate of 6.125%.

The working capital
facility permits the Company to borrow up to $30.0 million in revolving loans with a $7.0 million sub-limit available for the issuance of letters of credit. Availability of the working capital facility is subject to a borrowing base formula. As of
March 31, 2007, the Company had $0.0 million drawn and $2.0 million of standby letters of credit outstanding under the working capital facility, with approximately $28.0 million of remaining availability thereunder. The aggregate outstanding
amount of revolving loans and letters of credit under the financing arrangement cannot exceed $30.0 million and when outstanding bears an interest rate of 6.125%.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Company Overview

We are a producer of highway deicing rock salt in North America. We own and operate a rock salt mine located approximately 35 miles south of Rochester, New York. Our mine is located in the heart of the western and central New York and
Pennsylvania snow belt, with on-site access to truck and rail transportation.

Salt mines and mining operations are long-lived assets. Based solely on data
extrapolated from areas within a one-mile radius of our drill holes, we believe that our mine currently has over 52 years of remaining mineable reserves at the current production rate of 3.0 million tons per year.

While winter weather conditions in individual markets can vary from year to year, our target markets in New York and Pennsylvania are the most impacted by harsh winter
snow and ice conditions and overall demand across the region is relatively stable. Our served markets in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and eight other states have an aggregate regional demand for over 9.3 million tons per year of rock salt, and
Pennsylvania and New England currently have no operating rock salt mines.

Most of our sales are based on annual supply contracts with set pricing and
reserved volume generally awarded on the basis of lowest price of bids tendered. This allows us to plan our production and staffing schedule and our inventory placement and sales distribution strategy for the upcoming season. We routinely adjust the
size of our workforce, as well as the number of hours and days worked, to reflect seasonal demand.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, we generated
revenues of $81.9 million, and net income of $15.8 million. We believe that our cash flows are not materially impacted by economic cycles due to the stable end use markets for rock salt and the lack of cost effective alternatives.

liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We have identified the following as
critical accounting policies that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operation.

Salt Deposits, Mineral
Rights and Mine Development Costs

Salt deposits and mineral rights are underground reserves with respect to which the Company has extraction rights.
Mine development costs are primarily underground assets used in the production of salt with amortization lives linked to the quantity of available production reserves. Depletion of salt deposits and mineral rights and amortization of mine
development costs occur as the minerals are extracted based on units of production and engineering estimates of total reserves. As such, our mineral rights interests include estimates of probable mineral reserves. As such, the carrying values,
depletion and amortization expense charges for these assets are dependent upon estimates of proven mineral reserves. The impact of revisions to our reserve estimates is recognized on a prospective basis.

Mine Reclamation Cost

We have calculated the estimated net future
cost of dismantling, restoring, and reclaiming our mine in its related mine site in accordance with federal, state and local regulatory requirements, and in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143,
Accounting for Obligations Associated with the Retirement of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS No. 143 requires that we recognize the legal obligation of our mine reclamation costs at fair value as a liability when incurred and capitalize such costs by
increasing the carrying amount of our mine assets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In the event that relevant facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of our long-lived assets may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability is performed. If such an evaluation is required, the
estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the assets carrying amount to determine if a write-down is required. If our review indicates that the assets will not be recoverable, the carrying value of
the Companys assets would be reduced to their estimated fair value.

Other Significant Accounting Policies

Other significant accounting policies not involving the same level of estimates and assumptions as those discussed above are important to an understanding of our
financial statements. For example, our policies related to our inventory allowances, revenue recognition and legal contingencies require judgments and estimates.

Results of Operations

We record sales to customers based upon total billings including shipping and handling costs necessary to transport
our products from the production or storage sites to the delivery point. In establishing our prices to our customers, we must take into account the estimated cost of transportation of our products, since we assume responsibility for such costs. We
manage the profitability and attractiveness of existing and prospective customers and product lines by analyzing, among other factors, the customer billings net of related shipping and handling costs. This allows for a more comparable look at the
relative profitability of our business as well as providing a more accurate analysis upon which to analyze trends in the business.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these interim financial statements.

Seasonality

We experience a substantial amount of seasonality in
salt sales. The result of this seasonality is that sales and operating income are generally higher in the first and fourth calendar quarters and lower during the second and third quarters of each calendar year. Sales of highway and consumer deicing
salt products are seasonal as they vary based on the severity of the winter conditions in areas where the product is used. Following industry practice, we and our customers stockpile significant quantities of deicing salt in the second, third and
fourth calendar quarters. Our results of operations for the fiscal year ended September 30 are more representative of trends in our results.

Due to
the fact that weather conditions in the Companys market areas had been much milder than normal during the first quarter of the fiscal year, the Company accumulated a substantial amount of inventory of salt available for distribution to its
customers. As a result, the Company elected to temporarily cease production of salt commencing December 26, 2006 for approximately five weeks. By mid-January vigorous winter weather patterns returned producing snowfall nearly every day through
mid-March within the market areas served. This allowed for the return of the workforce in February and the resumption of mining operations which continued seven days a week to meet demand.

The six-month periods ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006 presented unseasonably warm and dry winter weather patterns, when compared to historical
averages. Our market area in spite of this continues to provide sufficient winter weather conditions to require salting of roadways which in turn allows us to experience satisfactory financial results. When each of the past two winter seasons are
viewed as compared to an average winter season, our financial results were very strong. For the first time in our history we exceeded $100.0 million in gross sales for six months during the period ended March 31, 2007. We believe our ability to
produce favorable financial results despite milder than normal weather for a prolonged period is a product of our physical location in the market which includes consistent lake effect snow.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2007 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2006

Sales

Total sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 of $81.9
million increased $43.2 million, or 112%, compared to $38.7 million during the same period in fiscal 2006. Sales primarily consist of bulk salt sales, as well as packaged salt sales. The $43.2 million increase is primarily attributed to a 94%
increase in tonnage sold in the second quarter of fiscal 2007, in addition to a 9% increase in average sales price per ton, as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2006. The increase in sales volume is attributable to higher demand related to
the vigorous winter weather during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006, during which our primary market areas experienced substantially milder than normal winter weather patterns.

Gross Income

Gross income for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 of
$20.3 million increased by $7.3 million, or 56%, compared to $13.0 million for the same period in fiscal 2006. The increase in gross income was primarily attributable to the 94% increase in tonnage sold due to the vigorous winter weather during the
quarter ended March 31, 2007, and was partially offset by a 24% increase in cost of sales on a per ton basis. The increase in cost of sales per ton is primarily due to our temporary cessation of salt production and inventory staging activities,
which resulted in less efficient absorption of our production, freight and handling costs during the quarter ended March 31, 2007. Gross profit per ton for the second fiscal quarter decreased by 19% as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006
as a result of this increase in cost of sales price per ton. Combined total cost of sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 increased by $35.9 million, or 139%, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006; while on a percentage of sales basis,
total cost of sales increased by 9%.

Components of cost of sales changed as follows:



| |  |  | Cost of sales - freight, handling and other for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 increased by $25.0 million or 157% as compared to the same period in fiscal
2006. The increase is primarily the result of the significant increase in sales volume as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006. Cost of sales  freight, handling and other increased by 33% on a per ton basis due to higher shipping costs
which include the increased cost of fuel as well as freight, and the less efficient absorption of embedded freight and handling costs caused by our temporary cessation of salt production and inventory staging activities.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Cost of sales - products for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 increased by approximately $10.9 million or 111% as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006. The
increase is primarily the result of the increase in sales volume in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006. Cost of salesproducts increased by 9% on a per ton basis due to less efficient absorption of fixed
production costs caused by our temporary cessation of salt production.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses of $1.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 increased by $0.3 million or 19% compared to $1.6 million for the same period in fiscal 2006. The
increase in operating expenses was primarily due to $0.4 million of idle rail car expense for the quarter offset by a decrease of $0.1 million in miscellaneous overhead expenses.

Other Income (Expense)

Other expense of $2.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 increased $1.8 million,
or 225%, compared to $0.8 million for the same period in fiscal 2006. The increase in other expense is primarily due to $2.1 million received during the second quarter of fiscal 2006 in connection with the settlement of litigation with the mine
contractor, offset by a decrease of $0.3 million in interest expense from the second quarter of fiscal 2006.

Six Months Ended March 31, 2007
Compared to Six Months Ended March 31, 2006

Sales

Total sales for the six months ended March 31, 2007 of $100.9 million increased $16.6 million, or 20%, compared to $84.3 million during the same period in fiscal 2006. Sales primarily consist of bulk salt sales, as well as packaged
salt sales. The $16.6 million increase is primarily attributed to an 11% increase in tonnage sold for the six months of fiscal 2007, in addition to an 8% increase in average sales price per ton, as compared to the same six month period of fiscal
2006. The increase in sales volume is attributable to higher demand related to the vigorous winter weather during the quarter ended March 31, 2007, compared to the milder winter weather conditions which persisted during the six months ended
March 31, 2006.

Gross Income

Gross
income for the six months ended March 31, 2007 of $26.1 million decreased by $1.3 million, or 5%, compared to $27.4 million for the same period in fiscal 2006. The decrease in gross income was primarily attributable to the increase in average
cost of sales per ton partially offset by the increase in tonnage sold over the same period in fiscal 2006. Combined total cost of sales for the first six months of fiscal 2007 increased by $17.8 million, or 31%, as compared to the same period in
fiscal 2006; while on a percentage of sales basis, total cost of sales increased by 7%. Gross profit per ton for the first six months of fiscal 2007 decreased by 14% as a result of the increase in cost of sales price per ton referred to above. As
previously explained, the increase in cost of sales per ton is primarily due to our temporary cessation of salt production and inventory staging which resulted in less efficient absorption of our production, freight and handling costs during the six
months ended March 31, 2007.

Components of cost of sales changed as follows:



| |  |  | Cost of sales - freight, handling and other for the six months ended March 31, 2007 increased by $13.0 million or 35% as compared to the same period in
fiscal 2006. Cost of sales  freight, handling and other increased by 22% on a per ton basis. The increase is primarily the result of the significant increase in sales volume as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006, in addition to higher
freight costs incurred due to a rise in fuel costs, an increase in average shipping distances when compared with the first six months of fiscal 2006 and the less efficient absorption of embedded freight and handling costs caused by our temporary
cessation of salt production and inventory staging activities.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Cost of sales - products for the six months ended March 31, 2007 increased by approximately $4.9 million as compared to the same period in fiscal 2006. The
increase is primarily the result of the increase in sales volume in the first six months of fiscal 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006. Cost of salesproducts increased by 12% on a per ton basis due to decreased coverage of fixed
production costs related to the temporary cessation of salt production.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses of $3.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2007 increased by $0.3 million, or 9%, as compared to $3.5 million for the same period in
fiscal 2006. Operating expenses primarily consist of selling, general and administrative expenses, miscellaneous overhead and non-production related depreciation and amortization expenses. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to $0.4
million of idle rail car expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 offset by a decrease of $0.1 million in miscellaneous overhead expenses.

Other Income (Expense)

Other expense of $5.8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2007 increased by $1.8 million, or 45%, compared to
$4.0 million for the same period in fiscal 2006. The increase in other expense is primarily due to $2.1 million received during the second quarter of fiscal 2006 in connection with the settlement of litigation with the mine contractor, offset by a
of $0.1 million decrease in interest expense, a $0.1 million increase in interest income, and a $0.1 million decrease in other financing charges when compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historical Cash Flow

We have used the cash generated from operations, borrowings under revolving lines of credit, and borrowings under construction and post-construction
financing facilities to meet our working capital needs and to fund capital expenditures. Additional information regarding our cash flows for the six month period ended March 31, 2007 is provided below.

---

Operating ActivitiesNet cash provided by operating activities was $31.3 million for the first six
months of fiscal 2007 compared to $28.8 million during the same period in fiscal 2006. Net cash from operating activities was primarily attributable to net income of $16.4 million, a decrease in inventory of $26.7 million related to the increased
sales late in the quarter, depreciation of $2.3 million, amortization of $0.6 million a decrease in prepaid of $0.5 million and net accrual and payables activity which saw a increase of $1.6 million. This positive operating cash flow activity was
partially offset by a $16.7 million increase in accounts receivable related to the increased sales late in the quarter.

Investing
ActivitiesNet cash flow used in investing activities for the first six months of fiscal 2007 and 2006 was $0.4 million and $2.9 million, respectively. The change is attributable to a decrease in the purchase of property and equipment
in the first six months of fiscal 2007 as compared to the previous period.

Financing ActivitiesNet cash used in financing activities
was $25.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2007 as compared to $19.1 million used during the same period in fiscal 2006. During the six months ended March 31, 2007, repayments, net of borrowing, on our revolving credit facility
totaled $21.0 million, and we used an additional $3.0 million to repurchase certain of our

9 1/2% Senior Secured Notes due 2014 and made a principal
payment of $1.0 million under our term loan facility. Borrowings and subsequent repayments were increased during this period due to the milder than normal winter weather during the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Pay down of the revolving credit
facility by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2007 is consistent with prior years.

EBITDA

EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, depreciation, depletion, and amortization (the Company does not incur income taxes). EBITDA does not represent and
should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations, as determined by GAAP, and our calculations of EBITDA may not be comparable to those reported by other companies. Investors should carefully consider the specific
items included in our computation of EBITDA. EBITDA is included herein because it is a basis upon which we assess our liquidity position and performance and because certain covenants in our borrowing arrangements are tied to similar measures. EBITDA
is also included herein because we believe that it presents useful information to investors regarding a companys ability to service and/or incur indebtedness. This belief is based on negotiations with lenders who have indicated that the amount
of indebtedness we will be permitted to incur will be based, in part, on measures similar to our EBITDA. EBITDA does not take into account working capital requirements, capital expenditures, debt service requirements and other commitments, and
accordingly, EBITDA is not necessarily indicative of amounts that may be available for discretionary use.

Contractual Cash Obligations

There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of the Companys business to the Companys contractual cash obligations as reported in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30,
2006, filed with the SEC on December 28, 2006.

Subsequent Events

The Company may from time to time make distributions to its members subject to the terms of its bank facility and the indenture governing its senior secured notes, which contain certain covenants and financial ratios
restricting the Companys ability to make distributions to its members. On April 9, 2007, the Company made a permitted cash distribution to its members in the amount of $6.0 million from fiscal year end 2006 earnings.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Companys business is subject to a variety of market risks, including but not limited to, interest rate risks and commodity pricing risks. Although the
Companys senior secured notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 9.5% per annum, borrowings under its bank facility are subject to variable interest rates keyed to LIBOR. As of March 31, 2007 the variable rate was 6.125%. As of
March 31, 2007, we had $94.0 million of debt outstanding under our senior secured notes, and $22.6 million outstanding under our bank facility. Our bank facility, in the aggregate principal amount of $52.6 million, consists of (a) a $22.6
million term loan facility, and (b) a $30.0 million working capital facility. The working capital facility permits us to borrow up to $30.0 million in revolving loans with a $7.0 million sub-limit available for the issuance of letters of
credit. As of March 31, 2007, there was $0.0 million drawn and $2.0 million of standby letters of credit outstanding under the working capital facility with approximately $28.0 million of remaining availability thereunder.

Our earnings and cash flows are affected by changes in interest rates applicable to our bank facility. Given our current debt structure and assuming an average level of
borrowings under our revolving credit facility at variable rates and a one hundred basis point increase in the average interest rate applicable to these borrowings, it is estimated that our interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2007
would have increased by $0.2 million.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Companys management, with the participation of its Co-Principal Executive Officers and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)). Based on that evaluation, the Companys Co-Principal Executive Officers and its Principal Financial
Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2007 (the end of the period covered by this report) have been designed and are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the
information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms.

There were no changes to the Companys internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2007 that materially
affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
