ITEMS 1 AND 2. BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES

                                  RISK FACTORS

OUR LEVEL OF DEBT MAY NOT ALLOW US TO PROPERLY PLAN FOR FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES OR
TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY.

     After the consummation of our plan of reorganization, we have a significant
amount of indebtedness. Our total consolidated indebtedness as of December 31,
2000 was $282.4 million and the ratio of total consolidated indebtedness to
total capitalization was 82%. Our high level of indebtedness will have several
important effects on our future operations, including:

o    requiring us to devote a substantial portion of our cash flow from
     operations to pay interest on our indebtedness and not for other uses, such
     as funding working capital or capital expenditures;

o    limiting our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for
     working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, general corporate
     purposes or other purposes;

o    putting us at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors who have less
     debt than us; and

o    limiting our flexibility to plan for, or to react to, changes in our
     business and the industry in which we operate.

LIQUIDITY CONSTRAINTS MAY HINDER OUR CONTINUED OIL AND GAS OPERATIONS.

     We have historically funded our operations primarily through our cash flow
from operations and borrowings under credit sources. We anticipate our principal
sources of liquidity during the next 12 months will be cash on hand, cash
generated by operations and borrowings under our bank credit facility.

     Our ability to raise funds through additional indebtedness is limited
because substantially all of our crude oil and natural gas properties are
subject to a lien for the benefit of the lenders under the bank credit facility.
We may also choose to issue equity securities or sell assets to fund our
operations, although the terms of our existing indebtedness limit our use of the
proceeds of any sale of assets. If we elect to raise additional capital by
issuing equity securities, there can be no assurance that we will be able to
obtain equity financing on satisfactory terms or at all.

PAST SUBSTANTIAL NET LOSSES MAY AFFECT FUTURE OPERATIONS.

     We experienced a substantial net losses for the years ended December 31,
1999 and 2000 of $30.7 million and $32.7 million, respectively. There can be no
assurances that we will become profitable in the future.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REPLACE DEPLETED RESERVES THAT ARE NECESSARY TO CONTINUE
OUR PRODUCTION.

     The rate of production from crude oil and natural gas properties declines
as reserves are depleted. Except to the extent we acquire additional properties
containing proved reserves, or conduct successful exploration and development
activities that identify additional formations with primary or secondary reserve
opportunities on our own properties, our proved reserves will decline as
reserves are produced. Future crude oil and natural gas production is therefore
highly dependent on our level of success in finding and acquiring additional
reserves. Our ability to continue acquiring producing properties or companies
that own producing properties assumes that major integrated oil companies and
independent oil companies will continue to divest some of their crude oil and
natural gas properties. There can be no assurance that these divestitures will
continue or that we will be able to acquire




                                       2
<PAGE>   3
producing properties at acceptable prices. Our ability to develop additional
reserves is limited by the terms of the bank credit facility and the standby
loan, each of which limits our ability to obtain additional financing in the
future for acquisitions and capital expenditures.

THE BANKRUPTCY MAY HAVE CREATED A NEGATIVE IMAGE OF US.

     The negative effect, if any, which our plan of reorganization may have on
our operations now that it has been consummated cannot be accurately predicted
or quantified. Our plan of reorganization was consummated on March 31, 2000.
Although we believe that the consummation of our plan of reorganization has had
and will continue to have a minimal effect on our relationships with our
customers, employees and suppliers, we cannot assure you that there will not be
a detrimental impact on future sales and patronage because of the negative image
of us that may have been created by the bankruptcy.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY AGAINST MAJOR OIL COMPANIES AND OTHER
INDEPENDENT OPERATORS, WE MAY BE UNABLE TO OBTAIN NECESSARY MATERIALS AND
RESOURCES AND MAY EXPERIENCE A SIGNIFICANT DISRUPTION OF OUR OPERATIONS.

     We encounter strong competition from major oil companies and independent
operators in acquiring properties and leases for the exploration for, and
production of, crude oil and natural gas. Competition is particularly intense
with respect to the acquisition of desirable underdeveloped crude oil and
natural gas properties. Many of our competitors have financial resources, staff
and facilities substantially greater than ours. Although we believe our current
operating and financial resources will be adequate to preclude any significant
disruption of our operations in the immediate future, the continued availability
of these materials and resources to us cannot be assured.

WE HAVE A HIGH LEVEL OF DEPENDENCE ON THREE CUSTOMERS THAT CAN DIRECTLY AFFECT
OUR INCOME STATEMENT.

     During 2000, two purchasers of our crude oil and natural gas, EOTT Energy
Operating Limited Partnership and Amoco Production Company, accounted for 41%
and 29%, respectively, of our revenues. In October 2000, we began selling our
crude oil that had been previously sold to Amoco, to TEPPCO Crude Oil, L.P. and
Sunoco, Inc. While we believe that our relationships with EOTT, TEPPCO and
Sunoco have been and will continue to be good, any loss of revenue from these
customers due to nonpayment by the customer would have an adverse effect on our
net income and earnings per share on our income statement and, ultimately, may
affect our share price. In addition, any significant late payment may adversely
affect our short-term liquidity position.

POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WITH OUR MAJORITY STOCKHOLDERS

     A variety of conflicts of interest between Appaloosa, PPM America, Oaktree
and our public stockholders may arise as a result of their aggregate ownership
of 88.1% of our common stock. Each of PPM America, Appaloosa and Oaktree, who
own 35.9%, 28.3% and 23.8% of our common stock, respectively, may decide to sell
all or part of their ownership interests in us in a transaction that does not
provide other stockholders the opportunity to sell their shares to the purchaser
for a price reflecting a change of control premium. Further, shareholders who
collectively control 66 2/3% of our common stock would be in a position to
control:

     o   the election of our entire board of directors thereby giving them the
         opportunity to select our management; and

     o   the outcome of the vote on all matters requiring the vote of our
         shareholders, such as the acquisition or disposition of our assets,
         including the sale of our business as a whole, and the future issuance
         of our common stock or other securities.

     Two of our directors, Messrs. Goldstein and Bolin, are also officers of
Appaloosa, who owns 28.3% of our common stock.

THE ANTITAKEOVER EFFECTS OF SOME OF THE PROVISIONS OF OUR GOVERNING DOCUMENTS
MAY PREVENT SOME TRANSACTIONS.

     Some of the provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws may tend
to deter potential unsolicited offers or other efforts to obtain control that
are not approved by our board of directors. These provisions include the right
of our board of directors, without any action by our shareholders, to fix the
rights and preferences of undesignated preferred stock, including dividend,
liquidation and voting rights. All of these provisions apply to the common
stock, and may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of
control.

OUR COMMON STOCK IS NOT LISTED ON THE NASDAQ NATIONAL MARKET OR ANY OTHER STOCK
EXCHANGE, WHICH MAY DEPRESS THE PRICE OF THE COMMON STOCK AND YOU MAY HAVE
DIFFICULTIES RESELLING THE STOCK.

     We intend to explore the possibility of listing our common stock on the
Nasdaq National Market or on one or more other national securities exchanges.
However, there can be no assurance that we will determine that it is feasible,
practicable or advisable to list our common stock or that, if an application is
made, our common stock would be approved for listing. Our inability to secure
the listing of our common stock or the decision not to list our common stock
will affect the liquidity and marketability of our common stock. Even if our
common stock is approved for listing on the Nasdaq National Market or any other
national securities exchange, there can be no assurance as to the price as to
which any shares of our common stock may be traded when issued or that an
established market for those securities will develop.

OUR PROFITABILITY IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON INDUSTRY CONDITIONS THAT HAVE, IN THE
PAST, CAUSED US TO IMPLEMENT SIGNIFICANT WRITEDOWNS OF OUR ASSETS.

     Our revenue, profitability and future rate of growth substantially depend
on prevailing prices for crude oil and natural gas. Crude oil and natural gas
prices can be extremely volatile. Prices are also affected by actions of state
and local agencies, the United States and foreign governments and international
cartels. Prices for crude oil and natural gas were depressed by excess imported
supplies during 1998 and the first half of 1999 and reached historic lows on an
inflation-adjusted basis. During the last half of 1999, commodity prices
improved significantly and prices continued to increase during 2000 reaching
high price levels not seen since the early 1980's. There can be no assurance
that commodity prices will remain high or will not return to historic lows.
These external factors and the volatile nature of the energy markets make it
difficult to estimate future prices of crude oil and natural gas. The
substantial and extended decline in the prices of crude oil and natural gas
during 1998 and 1999 adversely affected our financial condition and the results
of our operations, including reduced cash flow and borrowing capacity. All of
these factors are beyond our control.

     We periodically review the carrying value of our crude oil and natural gas
properties under the full cost accounting rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Under these rules, a ceiling test is performed whereby capitalized
costs of proved oil and natural gas properties may not exceed a present value,
based on unescalated prices at a single point in time, of estimated future net
revenues from proved reserves, discounted at 10%. Application of the ceiling
test generally requires pricing future revenue at the unescalated prices in
effect as of the end of each fiscal quarter and requires a write-down for
accounting purposes if the ceiling is exceeded. We were required to write down
the carrying value of our crude oil and natural gas properties during 1998 by an
aggregate of $188 million. We took a write-down of our Tunisia properties of
$5.4 million during the third quarter of 1999 once it was determined that an
exploratory well drilled in Tunisia, North Africa would not produce sufficient
quantities of crude oil to justify further completion work on the well. We took
an additional write-down on our Tunisia properties of $3.0 million during the
fourth quarter of 2000 because we decided to discontinue our participation in
the exploration of such properties. When a write-down is required, it results in
a charge to earnings, but does not affect cash flow from operating activities.
Once incurred, a write-down of crude oil and natural gas properties is not
reversible at a later date.

WE RELY ON ESTIMATES OF PROVED RESERVES AND FUTURE NET REVENUE INFORMATION THAT
ARE SUBJECT TO MANY FACTORS AND ANY NEGATIVE VARIANCE IN THESE ESTIMATES COULD
AFFECT OUR REPORTED ASSETS AND OUR ABILITY TO BORROW FUNDS.

     There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of
proved reserves and in projecting future rates of production and the timing of
development expenditures, including many factors beyond our control. The reserve
data included in our 2000 annual report on Form 10-K represent only estimates.
In addition, the estimates of future net revenue from proved reserves and their
present value are based on assumptions about future production levels, prices
and costs that may change over time. In particular, estimates of crude oil and
natural gas reserves, future net revenue from proved reserves and the present
value of proved reserves for the crude oil and natural gas properties described
in this report are based on the assumption that future crude oil and natural gas
prices remain the same as crude oil and natural gas prices at December 31, 2000.
The NYMEX prices as of December 31, 2000, used for purposes of our estimates
were $26.80 per Bbl of crude oil and $9.78 per MMbtu of natural gas. These year
end market prices are high in comparison to historical average crude oil and
natural gas prices in the most recent three-year period. Any significant
variance in actual results from these assumptions could also materially affect
the estimated quantity and value of our reserves.

WE ARE SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT GOVERNMENT REGULATION THAT MAY HINDER OUR ABILITY
TO CONDUCT OUR BUSINESS.

     Our business is subject to federal, state, provincial and local laws and
regulations relating to the exploration for and development, production and
marketing of crude oil and natural gas, as well as environmental and safety
matters. These laws and regulations have generally become more stringent in
recent years, often imposing greater liability on a larger number of potentially
responsible parties. Because the requirements imposed by these laws and
regulations are frequently changed, we are unable to predict the ultimate cost
of compliance with these requirements. There is no assurance that laws and
regulations enacted in the future will not hinder our ability to conduct our
business.

COSTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES, REGULATION AND LITIGATION COULD EXCEED OUR
ESTIMATES.

     Our current and former operations involve management of regulated materials
and are subject to various environmental laws and regulations. These laws and
regulations may obligate us to remediate various sites at which petroleum,
chemicals, low-level radioactive substances or other regulated materials may
have been disposed of or released. We have been party to legal proceedings
involving environmental matters in the past. Although these legal proceedings
were settled in connection with our plan of reorganization, there can be no
assurance that we will not be party to other legal proceedings involving
environmental matters in the future.

     It is not possible for us to estimate reliably the amount and timing of all
future expenditures related to environmental matters because of:

     o    the difficulty of estimating remediation costs;

     o    the uncertainty in quantifying liabilities under environmental laws
          that may impose joint and several liability on all potentially
          responsible parties; and

     o    the nature of environmental laws and regulations.

     Although we believe we have established appropriate reserves for
liabilities, including remediation costs, we could be required to set aside
additional reserves in the future due to these uncertainties.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

     On April 1, 2000, we entered into employment agreements with each of
Messrs. McGovern, Ruley and Pittman, which provide for minimum annual
compensation in the amount of $350,000, $250,000, and $200,000, respectively.
Each employment agreement is for a term of two years, which term automatically
renews daily for a term to extend two years from the renewal date until either
party gives notice. Additionally, each employment agreement


                                       10
<PAGE>   11

automatically terminates on the date of a "Change of Control," as defined below.
Each employment agreement entitles the officer to participate in the bonus,
incentive compensation and other programs that are created by our board of
directors. If any of Messrs. McGovern, Ruley or Pittman is terminated by Coho
without "Cause" (as defined below), or if the employment agreements are
automatically terminated because of a "Change of Control," Coho would:

     o    pay that individual a cash lump sum payment equal to two times the
          executive's then-current annual rate of total compensation; and

     o    continue, until the second anniversary of the employment termination,
          health and life insurance coverage under our plans or the equivalent
          thereof on the same basis as our other senior executives.

If any of Messrs. McGovern, Ruley or Pittman becomes disabled or dies during the
term of the respective employment agreement, the employment agreement may be
terminated by us, and we will pay the executive or his estate any unpaid
compensation and other benefits under the employment agreement until the date of
termination.

     The term "Cause" is defined in each employment agreement generally to mean:

     o    any material failure of the executive after written notice to perform
          his or her duties;

     o    commission of fraud, embezzlement or misappropriation by the executive
          against Coho;

     o    a material breach by the executive of the employment agreement or of
          the fiduciary duty owed to Coho; or

     o    conviction of the executive of a felony offense or a crime involving
          moral turpitude.

     Under each employment agreement, a "Change of Control" of Coho is deemed to
have occurred if:

     o    there is a sale, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all
          of the assets of Coho;

     o    our shareholders adopt a plan relating to the liquidation or
          dissolution of Coho;

     o    any person or group of persons acting in concert becomes the
          beneficial owner of more than 50 percent of the voting power of our
          securities generally entitled to vote in the election of directors,
          with certain exceptions; or

     o    there occurs a merger or consolidation of Coho unless, after the
          transaction, all of those persons who were the beneficial owners of
          our common stock before the transaction beneficially own 50 percent or
          more of the total voting power of all securities generally entitled to
          vote in the election of directors, managers or trustees of the
          surviving entity.

     We had employment agreements with each of Jeffrey Clarke and Anne Marie
O'Gorman. Additionally, we had severance agreements with Larry L. Keller and
Susan J. McAden. Each of the above is a former officer of Coho, and Mr. Clarke
is also a former director. We rejected each of these agreements under our plan
of reorganization, and each of the above filed proofs of claim in our bankruptcy
case. We negotiated settlement agreements with each of Messrs. Clarke and Keller
and Ms. O'Gorman and Ms. McAden, which agreements are described below.

     On April 3, 2000, we entered into an executive employment severance
agreement with Jeffrey Clarke, our former president and chief executive officer.
The purpose of this agreement was to compromise and settle any claims Mr. Clarke
may have had under his prior employment agreement and to secure Mr. Clarke's
assistance in the lawsuit we filed against Hicks Muse. In addition, Mr. Clarke
agreed to serve as a consultant to us for up to two days per week through June
30, 2000. Under the compromise and settlement agreement, Mr. Clarke received a
total of $875,000 as a cash settlement, $412,500 of which was paid in April 2000
and $462,500 of which was paid in January 2001.



                                       11
<PAGE>   12



     In addition, under the agreement, Mr. Clarke is entitled to the following
non-cash benefits:

     o    payment of two years of medical insurance, life insurance and
          disability insurance;

     o    release of any claims we may have in connection with the non-interest
          bearing sole recourse loan made to Mr. Clarke in October 1997 to
          assist him in the exercise of expiring options;

     o    forbearance of the interest-free loan from us to Mr. Clarke in the
          amount of $205,000 used to purchase a house, in exchange for Mr.
          Clarke's assistance in the Hicks Muse lawsuit, which loan will be
          forgiven on the date the Hicks Muse lawsuit is settled or otherwise
          concluded;

     o    a three-year directors' and officers' insurance policy covering
          actions prior to the effective date of our plan of reorganization; and

     o    our agreement not to assign any claims we may have against Mr. Clarke,
          if any.

     On April 13, 2000, we entered into an agreement with Anne Marie O'Gorman,
our former Senior Vice President-Corporate Development and Corporate Secretary,
to compromise and settle her claims under her employment agreement, which was
rejected under our plan of reorganization. Under the compromise and settlement
agreement, Ms. O'Gorman received $175,000 as a cash settlement, $131,250 of
which was paid in 2000 and $43,750 of which was paid in January 2001. Ms.
O'Gorman also received a severance payment of $162,025 upon termination in
August 2000.

     In addition, under the agreement, Ms. O'Gorman was released from any claims
we may have had in connection with the non-interest bearing sole recourse loan
made to Ms. O'Gorman in October 1997 to assist her in the exercise of expiring
options. Further, Ms. O'Gorman is entitled to the payment of medical and dental
coverage through August 2001.

     Also on April 13, 2000, we entered into agreements with Larry L. Keller,
our former Vice President, Mid-Continent Division, and Susan J. McAden, related
to her former position as our Vice President and Controller, to compromise and
settle their claims under their previous severance agreements, which were
rejected under our plan of reorganization. Under the compromise and settlement
agreements, Mr. Keller received a $163,000 cash settlement, $122,250 of which
was paid in 2000 and $40,750 of which was paid in January 2001 and Ms. McAden
received a $110,000 cash settlement, $82,500 of which was paid in 2000 and
$27,500 of which was paid in January 2001.

     In addition, under the agreement, Mr. Keller was released from any claims
we may have had in connection with the non-interest bearing sole recourse loan
made to Mr. Keller in October 1997 to assist him in the exercise of expiring
options.

     We have entered into an executive stay agreement with Ms. McAden which is
designed to encourage her to continue to carry out her duties with us in the
event we have a change in control. If she, subsequent to a change of control,
continues to be employed by us for a period of greater than 180 days or if her
employment is terminated for other than cause, this stay agreement generally
provides for a payment in an amount equal to her annual salary.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

     At December 31, 2000 the members of our compensation committee were Michael
E. Salvati, Ronald M. Goldstein and Michael Y. McGovern. Mr. McGovern has also
served as our president and chief executive officer since April 1, 2000. No
other member of our compensation committee was an officer or employee of Coho at
any time during 2000.

     During 2000, no executive officer of Coho served as:

     o    a member of the compensation committee or other board committee
          performing equivalent functions (or, in the absence of any such
          committee, the board of directors) of another entity, one of whose
          executive officers served on the compensation committee of our board
          of directors;


                                       12
<PAGE>   13

     o    director of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on
          the compensation committee of our board of directors; or

     o    a member of the compensation committee or other board committee
          performing equivalent functions (or, in the absence of any such
          committee, the board of directors) of another entity, one of whose
          executive officers served as a director of Coho.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

     Directors who are not our employees receive an annual retainer of $15,000
plus a fee of $1,000 for each meeting of our board of directors or meeting of a
committee of our board of directors attended in person. Additionally, members of
the Audit, Compensation and Executive Committees will receive an annual fee of
$2,000, with the exception of the chairman of each Committee, who will receive
an annual chairman fee of $3,500. All directors are reimbursed for expenses
incurred in attending meetings of our board of directors or meetings of
committees of our board of directors. Our employees who are also directors do
not receive a retainer or fees for attending meetings of our board of directors
or meetings of committees of our board of directors.

     On April 1, 2000, we entered into an agreement with Pirinate Consulting
Group, LLC with respect to monthly financial advisory services to be performed
by Eugene I. Davis for us for a monthly retainer of $15,000. Mr. Davis is
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Pirinate Consulting Group, LLC and is
currently one of our directors.

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK OPTION PLAN

     On August 17, 2000, we adopted a non-employee director stock option plan
for our current non-employee directors. On August 17, 2000, each non-employee
director received options to purchase 10,000 shares of our common stock at a
price per share equal to the closing sale price of our common stock on August
17, 2000. In addition, on August 1 each year thereafter the directors are each
entitled to receive options to purchase an additional 5,000 shares of our common
stock at the closing sale price on the date of grant.

     Options granted under the non-employee director stock option plan are fully
exercisable on the date of grant and must be exercised within five years from
the date of grant. The options terminate on the earlier of the date of the
expiration of the option or one year after the date the optionee ceases to serve
as a director of Coho.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE WITH RESPECT TO COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE
OFFICERS

To the Board of Directors
Coho Energy, Inc.

Objectives

     The objective of the Compensation Committee is to develop compensation
policies which will provide incentives to key executives to develop and carry
out Coho's business strategy that will result in the maximization of return to
the shareholders. More specifically, the Compensation Committee's objectives are
to develop compensation policies which will:

     o    allow Coho to attract and retain qualified individuals;

     o    encourage achievement of Coho's short term and long term goals; and

     o    align executive remuneration with the interest of shareholders by
          linking a significant portion of executive compensation to the
          appreciation of the share price of the common stock.

     The Compensation Committee's philosophy toward executive compensation is to
provide a combination of base level cash compensation and annual incentives, as
well as providing longer term awards through a stock option plan. Executives are
also permitted to participate in a health benefits insurance program and a 401
(k) plan, each of which is available to all employees of Coho.


                                       13
<PAGE>   14

Base Compensation

     The minimum cash compensation levels set forth in the employment agreements
for Messrs. McGovern, Ruley and Pittman were based on such factors as the
executives' levels of responsibility, prior experience, breadth of knowledge and
compensation paid to similarly situated executives employed by oil and gas
companies with capitalizations similar to Coho and with experience in directing
a company emerging from a bankruptcy reorganization. The Compensation
Committee's review and analysis of these matters was subjective in nature, with
no particular weight being placed on any specific factors.

Annual Incentives

     Although the employment agreements for Messrs. McGovern, Ruley and Pittman
entitle them to participate in bonus and incentive compensation programs, no
such programs have been implemented yet.

Long Term Incentives

     Longer term incentives in the form of stock options to executives are
designed to enhance long term growth in shareholder value. The committee
believes that linking a portion of executive compensation to future shareholder
value will encourage long term performance and growth of Coho.

     Messrs. McGovern, Pittman and Ruley were granted options under their
employment agreements in 2000 for the purchase of a total of 560,825, 186,942
and 233,677 shares of our common stock, respectively. These option grants
provide for a two year vesting period with 25% of them vesting on each of
October 1, 2000, April 1, 2001, October 1, 2001 and April 1, 2002. The exercise
price for half of the options was set at $5.98 per share (the average closing
price for the 70 days following March 31, 2000) and the exercise price for the
remaining half was set at $10.40 per share (the share price set forth in Coho's
plan of reorganization).

                                                     Respectfully submitted,


                                                     COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
                                                     Michael E. Salvati

PERFORMANCE GRAPH

     The following graph compares, as of December 31 for each of the dates
indicated, the percentage change in cumulative total stockholder return on our
common stock with the cumulative total return of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index
and the Standard Industrial Code Index for Crude Oil and Natural Gas Producers.
The graph assumes that the value of the investment in our common stock and each
index was $100 at December 31, 1995 and that all dividends paid by those
companies included in the indices were reinvested.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     On March 31, 2000, and in connection with the consummation of our plan of
reorganization, we issued $72 million of senior subordinated notes, of which
$65.5 million were issued to three of our major shareholders and their
affiliates. In addition, participants purchasing the notes were entitled to a
cash origination fee equal to 3 1/2% of the face amount of the notes purchased
plus an aggregate of 2,694,841 shares of our common stock. Share information,
loan origination fees and notes purchased by our major shareholders are as
follows:

In addition, during April 2000, certain of our officers were entitled, under
their employment contracts, to participate in the senior note loans and receive
the benefit of the loan origination fee and additional shares of common stock
issued by purchasing senior notes at face value from Appaloosa Management, L.P.
and PPM America, Inc. and affiliates. Share information, loan origination fees
and senior notes purchased from the major shareholders by our officers are as

     The senior subordinated notes, as discussed above, require semiannual
interest payments payable in cash or, if required pursuant to the intercreditor
arrangement between the standby lenders and the lenders under our bank credit
agreement, paid-in-kind. On September 29, 2000, the semiannual interest payment
in the aggregate amount of $5,358,000 was paid-in-kind to the holders of the
senior subordinated notes, resulting in the issuance of new senior subordinated
notes to certain major shareholders and officers as follows:

     On April 1, 2000, we entered into an agreement with Pirinate Consulting
Group, LLC with respect to monthly financial advisory services to be performed
by Eugene I. Davis for us for a monthly retainer of $15,000. Mr. Davis is
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Pirinate Consulting Group, LLC and is
currently one of our directors.

     We have entered into executive stay agreements with certain key employees
which are designed to encourage these key employees to continue to carry out
their duties with us in the event we have a change in control. If the employee,
subsequent to a change in control, continues to be employed by us for a period
of greater than 180 days or if the employee's employment is terminated for other
than cause, these stay agreements generally provide for a payment in an amount
equal to the employee's annual salary. The change of control payments paid to
the key employees covered under such severance agreements would aggregate
approximately $406,000.

     Pursuant to a registration rights agreement dated March 31, 2000, we have
agreed to register all shares of our common stock owned, currently or in the
future, by PPM, Appaloosa, Oaktree and Pacholder Associates, Inc. In accordance
with the registration rights agreement, we have filed a shelf registration
statement which became effective on January 8, 2001 and have agreed to keep the
shelf registration statement effective until the earlier of three years from the
date of effectiveness or the time when the shares of common stock covered by the
registration rights agreement have been sold or may be sold without restriction.
We have a limited right to suspend the availability of the shelf registration
statement for a valid business purpose for up to two consecutive 30-day periods
or to prevent the disclosure of material non-public information.

     Further, holders of at least 10% of all common stock covered by the
registration rights agreement may request that we register shares for sale in
the manner specified in the request. Each of PPM, Appaloosa, Oaktree and
Pacholder is entitled to three demand registrations. However, they may request a
registration on Form S-3 and if Form S-3 is available to us, there is no limit
on the number of registrations on Form S-3 that we are obligated to effect. We
have a limited right to delay the filing of a registration statement pursuant to
these demands to prevent the disclosure of material non-public information. In
addition, any time we file a registration statement, holders of common stock
covered by the registration rights agreement will have the right to request the
inclusion of their shares in the registration. The number of shares requested to
be registered (except those under the shelf registration statement) may be cut
back, on a pro rata basis, by the managing underwriter in a public offering to
ensure the successful marketing of a smaller number of shares.
