Movie Gallery, Inc.        Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)        July 7, 2002

1.    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. 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 twenty-six week period ended July 7, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 5, 2003. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our annual
report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 6, 2002.

In
the first quarter of 2002, we began reporting the sale of previously viewed rental inventory as rental revenue and the related cost as cost of rental revenue. The sales and costs
associated with previously viewed rental inventory were previously reported as product sales and cost of product sales, respectively. The sales and costs of previously viewed rental inventory in prior
periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation for comparative purposes. The reclassifications had no impact on total revenues, gross margins or net income as previously
reported.

The
extraordinary loss on early extinguishment of debt reported in the second quarter of 2001 ($177,000, net of taxes of $113,000) has been reclassified to interest expense and income
taxes. The item is not material to our operating results and the reclassification had no impact on net income as previously reported.

2.    Business Combinations, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141,Business Combinations, and Statement
No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Statement 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for by the purchase method, and
requires all intangible assets acquired in a business combination to be recognized as assets apart from goodwill if they meet certain contractual-legal criterion or separability criterion. The
provisions of Statement 141 apply to all business combinations with an acquisition date subsequent to June 30, 2001. The application of Statement 141 did not affect any of the previously
reported amounts included in goodwill or other intangible assets. Under Statement 142, goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are no longer amortized but are reviewed for impairment annually,
or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Separable intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite life will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. We adopted
Statement 142 as of January 7, 2002. The adoption of Statement 142 did not have any impact on the classification of intangible assets. Application of the nonamortization provisions of Statement
142 as of January 1, 2001 would have increased net income by approximately $863,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, and $1,715,000, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the thirteen weeks and
twenty-six weeks ended July 1, 2001, respectively. We completed the transitional impairment test and determined that none of the goodwill recorded was impaired as of
January 7, 2002.

3.    Financing Obligations

On June 27, 2001, we entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of banks, led by SouthTrust Bank, with respect to a new revolving credit facility.
This credit facility replaced a similar revolving credit facility with First Union National Bank of North Carolina, which was due to expire on January 7, 2002. Our credit facility is unsecured
and, as amended, provides for borrowings of up to $65 million through final maturity on July 4, 2004. The interest rate on our credit facility is based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin
percentage, which depends on cash flow generation and borrowings outstanding. In December 2001, as required by the credit facility, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement in order to
hedge exposure to interest rate fluctuations on $10 million of outstanding debt at a fixed rate of 3.5% plus an applicable margin percentage. In May 2002, we repaid all amounts
outstanding under our credit facility with the proceeds from our stock offering (see note 5) and terminated the interest rate swap agreement.

4.    Exit Costs

In connection with the purchase price allocation for Video Update, Inc. (acquired in December 2001), we recorded accrued expenses of approximately
$1.3 million to terminate the operations of the Video Update corporate office and to transition those functions to our corporate offices. The accrual consists primarily of payroll costs, rent
and utilities during the transition period. The accrual is subject to change if the transition period extends beyond that originally anticipated.

5

---

Adjustments to the accrual, if any, will be reported as an adjustment to the purchase price allocation. We paid approximately $387,000 and $1,036,000 against the accrual during the thirteen weeks and
twenty-six weeks ended July 7, 2002, respectively.

5.    Stockholders' Equity

Common Stock

Our Board of Directors approved two three-for-two stock splits, which were effected on August 31, 2001 and January 3, 2002
in the form of stock dividends. The stock splits increased the number of shares of common stock outstanding by a total of 14,894,399 shares. All prior periods have been restated to reflect the stock
splits.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted earnings per
share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods presented, increased solely by the effects of shares to be issued from the exercise of
dilutive common stock options (1,359,000 and 1,274,000 for the thirteen weeks ended July 1, 2001 and July 7, 2002, respectively; 873,000 and 1,283,000 for the twenty-six
weeks ended July 1, 2001 and July 7, 2002, respectively). No adjustments were made to net income in the computation of basic or diluted earnings per share.

Stock Offering

On April 11, 2002, we filed a registration statement with the SEC for an offering of our common stock. The offering was priced at $18.25 and closed on
May 21, 2002. We sold 3,900,000 shares and received the proceeds from 350,000 stock options exercised in conjunction with the offering for total proceeds, net of expenses of the offering, of
approximately $67.5 million. A portion of the proceeds from the offering were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the credit facility. We plan to use the balance of the proceeds from the
offering for new store openings, selective acquisitions, working capital and other general corporate purposes.

7.    Legal Settlement

On April 19, 2002, we obtained preliminary court approval of a settlement agreement to resolve class action lawsuits regarding extended viewing fees
charged to our customers. The terms of the settlement would provide coupons to eligible customers with values ranging from $9 to $16 to be used toward movie or game rentals or non-food
purchases at Movie Gallery and affiliated stores nationwide. The agreement is subject to a fairness hearing currently scheduled for November 22, 2002. If final approval is received, the coupons
will be issued and will be redeemable between January 30 and June 30, 2003. As a result of the agreement, we have recorded a one-time charge in the second quarter of 2002 of
approximately $4 million, including attorneys' fees for the class of $850,000.

8.    Supply Contract

We have a supply contract with Rentrak Corporation which requires us to order VHS rental inventory under lease sufficient to require an aggregate minimum payment
of $4 million per year in revenue sharing, handling fees, sell through fees and end-of-term buyout fees. The agreement expires in 2006. In March 2001, the terms
of our existing supply contract with Rentrak were amended. We paid Rentrak $1.6 million in connection with the amendment to the contract. Additionally, we prepaid approximately
$0.9 million to be applied over a three-year period against future amounts due under the contract.

Revenue.For the thirteen weeks and twenty-six weeks ended July 7, 2002, total revenues were
$122.6 million and $245.7 million, respectively, increases of 47.7% and 40.8% over the comparable periods in 2001. The increase for the year was due primarily to the expansion of our
store base to 1,560 stores at the end of the second quarter of 2002 from 1,050 at the end of the second quarter last year, representing a 42.6% increase in the average number of stores open during the
second quarter of 2002. The incremental stores in 2002 are primarily attributable to our acquisition of 324 Video Update stores in December 2001 and the internal development of new stores over
the last year. Increases in same store revenues of 1.3% and 0.8% for the second quarter and year-to-date period of 2002, respectively, also contributed to the overall increase
in total revenues. The increase in same store revenues was the result of: (i) continued growth of DVD rental revenue; (ii) increases in the sales of previously viewed movies and
previously played games; (iii) higher video game rental revenues driven by growth in the video game industry and consumer acceptance of new platforms released late in 2001; and, (iv) a

---

favorable slate of new release titles in the second quarter of 2002 versus the second quarter of 2001. The revenue increases were partially offset by: (i) a significant decline in rental
revenue from VHS product due to the continued consumer transition to DVD; (ii) unfavorable weather during the first half of 2002 as compared to the first half of 2001; (iii) the
broadcast of the Winter Olympics during the first quarter of 2002; and, (iv) a less than optimal home movie release schedule in the first quarter of 2002 as compared to the first quarter of
2001.

In
the first quarter of 2002, we began reporting the sale of previously viewed rental inventory as rental revenue and the related cost as cost of rental revenue. The sales and costs
associated with previously viewed rental inventory were previously reported as product sales and cost of product sales, respectively. The sales and costs of previously viewed rental inventory in prior
periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation for comparative purposes. The reclassifications had no impact on total revenues, gross margins or net income as previously
reported.

Cost of Sales.The gross margin on rental revenue for the second quarter and year-to-date period of
2002 was 71.5% and 72.1%, respectively, versus 67.0% and 67.9% for the comparable quarter and year-to-date period of 2001. The cost of rental revenues includes the amortization
of rental inventory, revenue sharing expenses incurred and the unamortized value of previously viewed rental inventory sold during
the period. The improvement in the gross margin on rental revenue is a result of (i) the increasing shift of movie rentals from videocassettes to DVD, which currently has a lower cost structure
than videocassettes and (ii) the purchase price allocation of Video Update that produced lower than normal rental inventory amortization in the first half of 2002. The improvement in rental
margins was partially offset by the initial investment in our game expansion program that is taking place in order to provide significant copy depth of all game platforms in our stores.

Cost
of product sales includes the costs of new VHS and DVD, concessions and other goods. The gross margin on product sales decreased to 22.5% for the second quarter of 2002 from 24.1%
in the second quarter of 2001, and increased to 27.3% for the year-to-date period of 2002 versus 20.3% in the comparable period of 2001. The increase in the
year-to-date gross margin was due to the decreased level of lower margin, new movies available for sale in 2002 versus 2001, coupled with deep discounts of certain new sales
merchandise in the first quarter of 2001 to diminish levels of slow moving inventory.

Operating Costs and Expenses.Store operating expenses, which include store-level expenses such as lease payments and
in-store payroll, increased to 49.6% and 49.1% of total revenue for the second quarter and year-to-date period of 2002, respectively. This reflects an increase from
48.8% and 46.9% in the comparable periods of 2001, respectively. The increase in store operating expenses as a percentage of total revenue was primarily due to a higher cost structure associated with
the recently acquired 324 Video Update stores. The increase was offset partially by: (i) continued initiatives to reduce operating costs; (ii) strong performance of new stores;
(iii) continued closure of under-performing units; and, (iv) the same store revenues increase of 1.3% and 0.8% in the second quarter and year-to-date period of
2002, respectively.

General
and administrative expenses include a legal settlement charge of $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2002 regarding our extended viewing fee policy and a
non-recurring charge of $1.6 million related to an amendment of our supply agreement with Rentrak Corporation in the first quarter of 2001. Excluding these two items, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 7.0% and 7.4%, respectively, for the second quarter and year-to-date period of 2002 from 7.7% and 7.6% for the
comparable periods in 2001, respectively. The decrease was attributable to increased revenues while leveraging general and administrative expenses associated with an increased store base.

Amortization
of intangibles as a percentage of total revenue for the thirteen weeks and twenty-six weeks ended July 7, 2002 was 0.3%, decreases from 1.9% and 2.0% for
the comparable periods of

9

---

2001, respectively. This decrease is due to the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 142. (See "Business Combinations, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets").

Stock
option compensation expense represents the non-cash charge associated with certain stock options that were repriced during the first quarter of 2001 and are
subsequently accounted for as variable stock options under FASB Interpretation No. 44,Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock
Compensation, an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25. We expect to record adjustments to income from stock option compensation in future periods.

Interest
expense as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 0.3% for the thirteen weeks and twenty-six weeks ended July 7, 2002, from 1.3% and 1.0% in the
comparable periods of 2001, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to the repayment of all outstanding debt in May 2002.

As
a result of the impact of the above factors on revenues and expenses, operating income increased by 274.2% and 165.6%, respectively, for the second quarter and
year-to-date period of 2002 to $9.7 million and $26.6 million, respectively. Excluding the legal settlement charge, the non-recurring charge to amend
a supply contract and non-cash stock option compensation expense, operating income increased by 182.0% and 110.9% for the second quarter and year-to-date period of
2002 to $14.5 million and $31.5 million, respectively.

Business Combinations, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141,Business Combinations, and Statement
No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Statement 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for by the purchase method, and
requires all intangible assets acquired in a business combination to be recognized as assets apart from goodwill if they meet certain contractual-legal criterion or separability criterion. The
provisions of Statement 141 apply to all business combinations with an acquisition date subsequent to June 30, 2001. The application of Statement 141 did not affect any of the previously
reported amounts included in goodwill or other intangible assets. Under Statement 142, goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are no longer amortized but are reviewed for impairment annually,
or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Separable intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite life will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. We adopted
Statement 142 as of January 7, 2002. Our adoption of Statement 142 did not have any impact on the classification of intangible assets. Application of the nonamortization provisions of Statement
142 as of January 1, 2001 would have increased net income by approximately $863,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2001 and by approximately $1,715,000, or $0.06 per
diluted share, for the first half of 2001. We completed the transitional impairment test and determined that none of the goodwill recorded was impaired as of January 7, 2002.

General Economic Trends, Quarterly Results of Operations and Seasonality

Our business is subject to fluctuations in operating results due to a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control. These fluctuations may be
caused by, among other things:



10

---



Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary capital needs are for opening and acquiring new stores and for purchasing inventory. Other capital needs include refurbishing, remodeling and
relocating existing stores and refreshing, rebranding, and supplying new computer hardware for acquired stores. We fund inventory purchases, remodeling, rebranding and relocation programs, new store
opening costs and acquisitions primarily from cash flow from operations, proceeds from our common stock offering and, if necessary, loans under revolving credit facilities.

During
the twenty-six weeks ended July 7, 2002 we generated approximately $38.0 million in Adjusted EBITDA, a 31.7% increase over $28.8 million for the
comparable period in the prior year. This increase was primarily driven by the revenue growth and gross margin increases as discussed above. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock option compensation and non-recurring items, less our purchases of rental inventory which excludes rental inventory
purchases specifically for new store openings. Adjusted EBITDA is presented not as an alternative measure of operating results or cash flow from operations (as determined in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States), but because, in the home video specialty retail industry, it is a widely accepted financial indicator of a company's ability to incur and service
debt. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to reported EBITDA
and/or Adjusted EBITDA of other companies due to the lack of uniform definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

We
fund short-term working capital needs, including the purchase of rental inventory, primarily through cash flow from operations. Net cash provided by operating activities
was $70.8 million for the

11

---

twenty-six weeks ended July 7, 2002 compared to $41.5 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 1, 2001. Net cash provided by operating activities
continues to be sufficient to cover our rental inventory and capital asset replenishment needs.

Net
cash used in investing activities was $84.7 million for the first half of 2002, versus $42.0 million for the comparable period in 2001. The increase is primarily due to
more significant acquisition activity in 2002 versus 2001 and increased rental inventory purchases in 2002 to support a larger store base.

Net
cash provided by financing activities was $43.2 million for the first half of 2002, versus $1.0 million for the comparable period in 2001. The increase is primarily due
to the net result of the proceeds from our stock offering and the subsequent repayment of amounts outstanding under our credit facility.

On
April 11, 2002, we filed a registration statement with the SEC for an offering of our common stock. The offering was priced at $18.25 and closed on May 21, 2002. We sold
3,900,000 shares and received the proceeds from 350,000 stock options exercised in conjunction with the offering for total proceeds, net of expenses of the offering, of approximately
$67.5 million. We used a portion of the proceeds to repay outstanding borrowings under our credit facility. We plan to use the balance of the proceeds from the offering for new store openings,
selective acquisitions, working capital and other general corporate purposes.

On
June 27, 2001, we entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of banks, led by SouthTrust Bank, with respect to a new revolving credit facility. This credit facility
replaced a similar revolving credit facility with First Union National Bank of North Carolina, which was due to expire on January 7, 2002. Our credit facility is unsecured and, as amended,
provides for borrowings of up to $65 million through July 4, 2004. The interest rate on our credit facility is based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin percentage, which depends on cash
flow generation and borrowings outstanding. In December 2001, as required by the credit facility, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement in order to hedge exposure to interest rate
fluctuations on $10 million of outstanding debt at a fixed rate of 3.5% plus an applicable margin percentage. In May 2002, we repaid all amounts outstanding under our credit facility
with the proceeds from our stock offering and terminated the interest rate swap agreement.

We
grow our store base through internally developed and acquired stores. We opened 45 internally developed stores, acquired 119 stores and closed 19 stores during the first half of 2002.
We expect to open 140 new stores in 2002. To the extent available, new stores and future acquisitions may be completed using proceeds from our recent stock offering, funds available under our credit
facility, financing provided by sellers, alternative financing arrangements such as funds raised in public or private debt or equity offerings or shares of our stock issued to sellers. However, we
cannot assure you that financing will be available to us on terms which will be acceptable, if at all.

At
July 7, 2002, we had a working capital deficit of $24.3 million, due to the accounting treatment of rental inventory. Rental inventory is treated as a noncurrent asset
under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States because it is a depreciable asset and a portion of this asset is not reasonably expected to be completely realized in cash or sold
in the normal business cycle. Although the rental of this inventory generates the major portion of our revenue, the classification of this asset as noncurrent results in its exclusion from working
capital. The aggregate amount payable for this inventory, however, is reported as a current liability until paid and, accordingly, is included in working capital. Consequently, we believe that working
capital is not an appropriate measure of our liquidity and we anticipate that we will continue to operate with a working capital deficit.

We
believe our projected cash flow from operations, cash on hand, borrowing capacity under our credit facility and trade credit will provide the necessary capital to fund our current
plan of operations, including our anticipated new store openings and acquisition program, through fiscal 2002. However, to fund a major acquisition, or to provide funds in the event that our need for
funds is greater than expected, or if the financing sources identified above are not available to the extent anticipated or if we increase our growth plan, we may need to seek additional or
alternative sources of financing. This
financing may not be available on satisfactory terms. Failure to obtain financing to fund our expansion plans or for other purposes could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

Our
ability to fund our current plan of operations and our growth plans will depend upon our future performance, which is subject to general economic, financial, competitive and other
factors that are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that our business will continue to generate sufficient cash flow from operations in the future to fund capital resource needs, cover the
ongoing costs of operating our business and service any debt incurred in the future. If we are unable to satisfy these requirements with cash flow from operations and cash on hand, we may be required
to sell assets or to obtain additional financing. We cannot assure you that any such sales of assets or additional financing could be obtained.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are described in note 1 to our consolidated financial statements as filed in our annual report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 6, 2002. Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial
statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate the
estimates that we have made. These estimates have been based upon historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may
differ from these estimates under different conditions or using different assumptions. We believe our most critical accounting policies include our policies with respect to rental inventory
amortization, the recognition of extended viewing fee revenue, impairment of long-lived assets, purchase price allocation of acquired businesses and deferred income taxes. These policies
are discussed in Item 7 of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 6, 2002.

13

With
respect to rental inventory, a major component of our cost structure is based upon the method by which we amortize our rental inventory. This method (described in note 1 to
our consolidated financial statements as filed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 6, 2002) is dependent upon the net realizable value of our
inventory and the demand patterns of the rental products we provide. The largest two chains in our industry tend to operate in more urban areas with higher levels of DVD penetration. As a result of
the transition of consumer preferences from renting videocassettes to DVDs, these two companies have changed their estimates used to amortize rental inventory by reducing the residual values of the
videocassette product and by accelerating the write-off period. We periodically evaluate the necessity of accelerating our amortization method based on consumer demand for our products and
at some time in the future may make a change in our methods or estimates. Such a change could result in a significant one-time non-cash charge to our earnings, which could have
a negative effect on our results of operations.

Forward Looking Statements

To take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, you are hereby cautioned that this report contains
forward-looking statements that are based upon current expectations and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risk factors
that are discussed from time to time in our SEC reports, including, but not limited to, the report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 6, 2002, and the Prospectus
filed pursuant to rule 424(b)(1), filed with the SEC on May 17, 2002. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
events, or otherwise.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

In May 2002, we repaid all outstanding debt and terminated our interest rate swap agreement. There have been no other material changes in our inherent
market risks since the disclosures made as of January 6, 2002 in our annual report on Form 10-K.

Part IIOther Information

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

As discussed in our report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended April 7, 2002 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
May 22, 2002, we are a defendant in one putative class action lawsuit in Alabama,Sable Denise Mack, et. al. v.
M.G.A., Inc.,filed on December 8, 2000 in the Circuit Court of Tuscaloosa County, Alabama; one putative class action lawsuit filed on August 17, 2001 in
the 71stJudicial District Court, Harrison County, Texas,Shannon Thompson, et. al. v. M.G.A., Inc.;and one putative
class action lawsuit filed on December 3, 2001, in the Chancery Court of Fayette County, Tennessee,Michael McCullar, et al. v. Movie Gallery, Inc.,
et al.Each of these lawsuits alleges, on behalf of a nationwide class of all customers, that the extended viewing fees we charge our customers for keeping our rental products
beyond the initial rental period are penalties in violation of common law and equitable theories. The dollar amounts that plaintiffs seek in each of the foregoing three putative class action lawsuits
is not set forth in the complaints. Similar class action lawsuits have been filed against the two largest chains in our industry. Without admitting any fault, one of our competitors settled all of
these class action lawsuits pending against it. According to the announced terms of the settlement, this company agreed to make certificates available to class members for rentals and cash discounts
and to pay approximately $9.0 million of the plaintiffs' attorneys' fees. Although the settlement of this case was approved by the trial court, an appeal of the approval filed by some of the
class members is currently pending.

In
April 2002, we obtained a court order preliminarily approving a settlement agreement between us and the plaintiffs in the Tennessee case, by which we agreed to settle claims of
all of the members of the nationwide class of customers. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, we are required to
give class members certificates with values ranging from $9 to $16, redeemable between January 30, 2003 and June 30, 2003, for movie rentals, game rentals, and non-food
purchases in our stores. We would also pay the plaintiffs' attorneys up to $850,000 in fees. A fairness hearing regarding this settlement has been scheduled for November 22, 2002. At this
hearing, the court will consider any objections to the settlement agreement brought by class members, their attorneys or other interested parties, and will determine whether to approve, reject or
modify the terms of the settlement. If approved on the proposed terms, the settlement would likely release all claims made by all class members in all the pending class actions, other than members who
choose not to participate in the settlement. We believe that our extended viewing fees do not violate any laws. As a result, in the event the settlement described above is not approved by the court we
intend to continue to vigorously defend the lawsuits filed against us.

In
connection with the settlement, the class action lawsuits in Alabama and Texas have been stayed, requiring the plaintiffs to stop their actions in those lawsuits pending final
approval of the settlement.

Although
we believe that the foregoing claims against us are unwarranted and without merit, we cannot assure you as to the outcome of these proceedings, or that any settlement will
receive final court approval. We did, however, incur a one-time charge to our earnings of approximately $4 million in the second quarter of 2002, as a result of the settlement
agreement described above, which amount includes $850,000 of plaintiffs' attorneys' fees.

In
addition, we are involved in litigation in the ordinary course of our business, none of which, if decided adversely to us, individually or in the aggregate, would be material to our
business or results of operations.
