Cautionary Statement Regarding the MORs

The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the MORs, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company. The MORs are limited in scope, cover a limited time period and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the reporting requirements of the Bankruptcy Court. The MORs are not audited or reviewed by independent accountants, was not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, is in a format prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws or rules, and are subject to future adjustment and reconciliation. The MORs also contain information for periods shorter and otherwise different from those contained in the Company's reports required to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act. There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor in the Company’s securities, the MORs are complete. Results set forth in the MORs should not be viewed as indicative of future results.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Trading in the Company’s Securities

The Company’s securityholders are cautioned that trading in the Company’s Common Stock during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for the Company’s Common Stock may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by holders thereof in the Company’s Chapter 11 Cases. Accordingly, the Company urges extreme caution with respect to existing and future investments in its Common Stock.
