HECKMANN CORPORATION

(a corporation in the development stage)

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

Note 1  Description of Business

Heckmann Corporation (a corporation in the development stage) (the Company) was incorporated in Delaware on May 29, 2007 as a blank check
company whose objective is to acquire, through a merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination, one or more operating business or businesses. The Company is considered to be in the development stage as
defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7, Accounting and Reporting By Development Stage Enterprises, and is subject to the risks associated with activities of development stage
companies. All activity through March 31, 2008 relates to the companys formation, initial public offering and efforts to identify prospective target businesses. At March 31, 2008, the Company had not commenced any operations other
than analysis and development activities associated with investigation of prospective target businesses.

The registration statement for
the initial public offering (the Offering) was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 9, 2007. The Company closed the Offering on November 16, 2007 and received proceeds of $421,071,040 net of
underwriting discounts and commissions of $10,823,360 (including $19,482,048 of deferred underwriting discounts and commissions placed in the trust account pending completion of a business combination). The Companys management has broad
discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Offering and the partial Over-Allotment Option Exercise, although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Offering and the partial Over-Allotment Option Exercise are
intended to be generally applied toward consummating a business combination with an operating company or companies. As used herein, a Target Business shall mean one or more businesses that at the time of the Companys initial
business combination has a fair market value of at least 80% of the Companys net assets (excluding deferred underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $19.5 million) and a Business Combination shall mean the
acquisition by the Company of such Target Business. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully consummate a Business Combination. Upon the consummation of the Offering, approximately 99% of the gross proceeds,
after payment of certain offering expenses and amounts to the Underwriters, was placed in a trust account (Trust Account) and invested in eligible institutional money market funds pursuant to SEC Rule 2(a)(7) and short-term securities
issued or guaranteed by the United States. The proceeds will be held in the Trust Account until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Companys initial Business Combination or (ii) the Companys dissolution and liquidation
of the Trust Account as described below. The remaining proceeds may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses.

In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 24 months after the consummation of the Offering the Company will
dissolve and distribute the proceeds held in the Trust Account to the Companys stockholders, excluding the Founders, to the extent of their stock holdings. In the event of such liquidation and distribution, it is likely that the per share
value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less than the initial public offering price per Unit in the Offering (assuming no value is attributed to the Warrants contained in the Units
offered in the Offering discussed in Note 3).

Note 2  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position as of March 31, 2008 and the financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and the period from
May 29, 2007 (date of inception) to March 31, 2008, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Companys annual audited financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The balance sheet
as of December 31, 2007, as presented herein, was derived from the Companys audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

##### Table of Contents

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and the period from May 29,
2007 (date of inception) to March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for a full fiscal year. These interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements for the period from May 29, 2007 (date of inception) to December 31, 2007, which are included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Note 3  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and cash equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or
less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The trust assets are invested in one or more money market funds.

Net income per share:

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings
per share is computed similar to basic net income per share, but includes the dilutive effect of shares issued pursuant to the Companys outstanding warrants which are exercisable on the later of (i) the completion of a business
combination or (ii) one year after consummation of the Companys initial public offering.

Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent accounting developments:

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. The objective of SFAS 157 is to increase consistency and
comparability in fair value measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures
about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are effective for fair
value measurements made in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.

Income taxes:

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a companys financial
statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements uncertain
tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on the de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax
positions. The Company adopted FIN 48 upon inception.

##### Table of Contents

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and California taxing jurisdictions. The Companys
tax returns for 2007 are subject to examination by the Federal and California tax authorities. The Companys policy is to recognize interest expense and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense. As of
March 31, 2008, the Company had no interest or penalties accrued for uncertain tax positions.

Note 4  Initial Public Offering

On November 16, 2007, the Company sold to the public 54,116,800 Units, including 4,116,800 Units pursuant to the partial Over
Allotment Option exercise, at a price of $8.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of the Companys common stock, $0.001 par value, and one Redeemable Common Stock Purchase Warrant (Warrant). Each Warrant will entitle the
holder to purchase from the Company one share of common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 commencing the later of the completion of a Business Combination with a Target Business or November 9, 2008 and expiring November 9, 2011, unless
earlier redeemed. The Warrants will be redeemable at a price of $0.01 per Warrant upon 30 days notice after the Warrants become exercisable, only in the event that the last sale price of the common stock is at least $11.50 per share for any 20
trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given.

Note 5  Commitment

The Company paid an underwriting discount of 2.5% of the public Unit offering price to
the Underwriters at the closing of the Offering, with an additional 4.5% fee of the gross Offering proceeds payable upon the Companys consummation of a Business Combination. This additional 4.5% fee, or $19,482,048 at March 31, 2008 and
December 31, 2007, is reflected as a liability in the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets.

Note 6  Fair Value
Measurements

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, Fair Value
Measurement, or SFAS 157, for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least
annually. In accordance with the provisions of FSP No. FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157,the Company has elected to defer implementation of SFAS 157 as it relates to its non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities
that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis until January 1, 2009. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, this standard will have on its non-financial assets and liabilities.

The adoption of SFAS 157 to the Companys financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and
reported at fair value at least annually did not have an impact on the Companys financial results.

The following table presents
information about the Companys assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2008, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair
value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted
prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability (in
millions):

The fair values of the Companys cash equivalents and cash and cash equivalents held in the
Trust Account are determined through market, observable and corroborated sources.

The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated
balance sheets for other current assets and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.

Special Note About Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains
forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as may, will, should,
expect, plan, anticipate, believe, estimate, predict, potential or continue, the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. These statements
are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the
forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, neither we, nor any other person, assume responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the
forward-looking statements. We are under no obligation to update any of the forward-looking statements after the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to conform such statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial
information appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Readers are also urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us which attempt to advise interested parties of the factors which affect our business, including (without
limitation) the disclosures made under the caption Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, under the caption Risk Factors, and the audited financial statements and related
notes included in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 and other reports and filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Risk factors that could cause actual results to differ from those
contained in the forward-looking statements, include but are not limited to our limited operating history, and other risks identified in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

We were formed on May 29, 2007 as a blank check company for the purpose of acquiring,
through a merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination, one or more operating businesses. We intend to use cash derived from the net proceeds of our initial public offering, and the partial exercise by
the underwriters of their over-allotment option, together with any additional financing arrangements that we undertake, to effect a business combination. The Companys efforts in identifying prospective target businesses will not be limited to
a particular industry. Instead, the Company intends to focus on various industries and target businesses that may provide significant opportunities for growth. The issuance of additional shares of our stock in a business combination:



| |  |  | may significantly reduce the equity interest of our stockholders;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | may subordinate the rights of holders of common stock if preferred stock is issued with rights senior to those afforded to our common stock;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | may cause a change in control if a substantial number of our shares of common stock are issued, which could result in the resignation or removal of our present
officers and directors; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock and warrants.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, debt securities issued by us in a business combination may result in:



| |  |  | default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after a business combination are insufficient to pay our debt obligations;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we have made all principal and interest payments when due if the debt security contains covenants
that required the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves and such covenant is breached without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | our inability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, if the debt security contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain additional financing while
such security is outstanding;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our inability to pay dividends on our common stock;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our common stock,
working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | other disadvantages compared to our competitors who may have less debt.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues from operations to date. Our entire activity since inception has been to prepare for
and consummate our initial public offering and to identify and investigate targets for a business combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until consummation of a business combination. We will generate non-operating income in the
form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents.

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the period from
May 29, 2007 (inception) to March 31, 2008 was $3.1 million, which consisted of $6.6 million in interest income partially offset by $0.6 million in formation and operating expenses and $2.9 million in income taxes.
Net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $2.2 million, which consisted of $4.1 million in interest income partially offset by $0.4 million in formation and operating
expenses and $1.5 million in income taxes. Through the trustee of the trust account, we will pay any taxes resulting from interest accrued on the funds held in the trust account out of the funds held in the trust account.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The net proceeds
from (i) the sale of 54,116,800 units in our initial public offering (including the partial underwriters over-allotment option), after deducting approximately $11.9 million for underwriting discounts and offering expenses and
approximately $19.5 million of deferred underwriting discounts and (ii) the sale of 7,000,000 warrants to our sponsors for a purchase price of $7.0 million, was approximately $428.1 million. All of these net proceeds were placed in
trust.

We will use substantially all of the net proceeds of our initial public offering to acquire one or more target businesses,
including identifying and evaluating prospective target businesses, selecting one or more target businesses, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business combination. If the business combination is paid for using stock or debt
securities, we may apply the cash released to us from the trust account for general corporate purposes, including for maintenance or expansion of operations of the acquired business or businesses, the payment of principal or interest due on
indebtedness incurred in consummating our initial business combination, to fund the purchase of other companies, or for working capital.

At March 31, 2008, we had cash outside of the trust account of approximately $4.0 million, cash held in the trust account of approximately $429.2 million, accrued income and franchise taxes of approximately $1.9 million and
total liabilities of $21.4 million. We believe that the funds available to us outside of the trust account will be sufficient to allow us to operate for the next twelve months (beginning April 1, 2008). Of the funds held outside of the trust
account, we anticipate using these funds to cover the due diligence and investigation of a target business or businesses; legal, accounting and other expenses associated with structuring, negotiating and documenting an initial business combination;
and office space, administrative services and secretarial support prior to consummating a business combination.

On April 11, 2008, at
our instruction, the trustee transferred $1.4 million of interest earned on the trust account into our operating cash account for the purposes of paying taxes on the aggregate amount of interest on the funds held in the trust account.

If the funds available to us outside of the trust account are insufficient to cover our expenses, we may be required to raise additional
capital, the amount, availability and cost of which is currently unascertainable. In this event, we could seek such additional capital through loans or additional investments from our sponsors, Mr. Heckmann or our directors, but, none of such
sponsors, Mr. Heckmann or our directors is under any obligation

to advance funds to, or invest in, us. Any such interest income not used to fund our working capital requirements or repay advances from our founders or for
due diligence or legal, accounting and non-due diligence expenses will be usable by us to pay other expenses that may exceed our current estimates.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, we may need to raise additional funds through a private offering of debt and/or equity securities if
such funds were required to consummate a business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only consummate such financing simultaneously with the consummation of a business combination.



|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Our primary exposure to market risk is interest income sensitivity, which is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates, including recent reductions instituted by the U. S. Federal Reserve Bank, particularly because the
majority of our investments held in the trust account are in rate sensitive short-term marketable securities. Due to the nature of our short-term investments, we believe that we are not subject to any material market risk exposure other than
interest rate fluctuations. We do not have any foreign currency or other derivative financial instruments.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures
|------- | -----------------------

As of the end of the
period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we, including our chief executive officer, who also serves as our principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting management of any material
information relating to us that is required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as
defined in Rule 13-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.

|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings.
|------- | ------------------

None.



|Item 1A. | Risk Factors.
|-------- | -------------

Factors that could cause our actual
results to differ materially from those in this report are any of the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2008. Any of these factors could result in a
significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. As of
April 15, 2008, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed March 31, 2008 with the SEC, and we may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time
in our future filings with the SEC.



|Item 2. | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
|------- | ------------------------------------------------------------

On June 21, 2007, in connection with our formation and initial capitalization, we sold 14,375,000 units at an aggregate price of $71,875, or $0.005 per unit, to our founders without registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The foregoing units were issued on June 21, 2007, and each of the recipients of such units is an accredited investor as defined under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As
such, the foregoing units were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Of this total, 13,975,000 founders units were issued to Heckmann Acquisition, LLC, an
entity owned and controlled by Mr. Heckmann, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. The remaining 400,000 units were issued to the members of our board of directors other than Mr. Heckmann. Upon the consummation of our
initial public offering and the partial exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters, 845,000 units were redeemed for $4,225.

On October 3, 2007, we entered into amended agreements to sell 7,000,000 Warrants (the Sponsor Warrants) to our founders without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The initial subscription agreements
were entered into on June 21, 2007. On November 16, 2007, we completed the sale of 7,000,000 Sponsor Warrants at a purchase price of $1.00 per Sponsor Warrant generating gross proceeds to the Company of $7,000,000. Heckmann Acquisition,
LLC, an entity owned and controlled by Mr. Heckmann, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, purchased 5,000,000 Sponsor Warrants. The Companys other directors purchased an aggregate of 2,000,000 Sponsor
Warrants. These warrants were issued immediately prior to the consummation of our initial public offering, and each of the recipients of such warrants is an accredited investor as defined under Regulation D of the Securities Act, of 1933
as amended. As such, these warrants were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The warrants were sold for an aggregate price of $7,000,000 at a price of $1.00 per
warrant. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sales.

On November 16, 2007, we consummated our
initial public offering (the IPO) of 54,116,800 units, including 4,116,800 units issued pursuant to the partial exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option. The units were sold at an offering price of $8.00 per unit,
generating total gross proceeds of approximately $432.9 million. Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC acted as representative of the underwriters. The securities sold in the offering were registered under the Securities Act of 1933 on a registration
statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-144056) that was declared effective on November 9, 2007.

Of the gross proceeds from the IPO: (i) we
deposited approximately $428.1 million into a trust account maintained by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee, which included approximately $19.5 million of underwriters deferred discount; (ii) the underwriters received
approximately $10.8 million as underwriting discount (excluding the deferred underwriting discount); and (iii) we used approximately $1,034,250 for offering expenses (which have been charged to paid-in-capital). On November 16, 2007, we used
$262,453 of our general working capital to repay the note payable to Mr. Heckmann. The note was repaid in full and cancelled.

subsequent thereto, including our withdrawal of $4.5 million of the interest earned on the funds held in the trust account through March 31, 2008, approximately $429.2 million was held in trust and we had approximately $4.0 million of
unrestricted cash available to us for our activities in connection with identifying and conducting due diligence of a suitable business combination, and for general corporate matters.
