-----------------------------------------------------------------

 

(1) The pro forma balance sheet was prepared using a common share

    price of $0.47, which was the closing share price on September 24,

    2004. The accounting treatment is dependent, in part, on the

    market value of the securities issued in connection with the

    exchange and the results of the ongoing subsequent offering

    period.

 

(2) Reflects the payment of estimated transaction costs of $12,660 and

    accrued interest of $4,150 due under the senior secured credit

    agreement, and on the 2005 senior notes, the convertible

    subordinated notes and the subordinated Robbins exit funding

    obligations tendered as part of the exchange offer, offset in part

    by the proceeds from the Series B notes.

 

(3) Reflects the net write-off of unamortized issuance costs and bank

    fees of $14,125 associated with the senior secured credit

    funding obligations tendered as part of the exchange offer.

    as part of the exchange offer.

 

(11) Reflects the issuance of common shares and preferred shares in

    exchange for convertible subordinated notes, subordinated Robbins

    exit funding obligations and trust preferred securities and a

    portion of the 2005 senior notes tendered as part of the exchange

    offer. Also, reflects the issuance of Class A warrants in exchange

    for trust preferred securities tendered as part of the exchange

    offer.

 

(12) Reflects estimated transaction costs of $12,660, less $1,775

    capitalized and included in other assets, the write-off of

    unamortized issuance costs and bank fees of $12,171 and a net loss

    of $147,524 on the exchange of the 2005 senior notes, the

    convertible subordinated notes, the subordinated Robbins exit

    funding obligations and trust preferred securities tendered as

    part of the exchange offer.
