MILLER INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1.                 Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Miller Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  Nevertheless, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the financial information presented not misleading.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented.  Cost of goods sold for interim periods for certain entities in the towing and recovery equipment segment is determined based on estimated gross profit rates.  Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Transition Report on Form 10-K for the eight months ended December 31, 2001.

2.                 Liquidity

The towing and recovery equipment manufacturing and towing services industries are highly competitive.  Certain competitors may have substantially greater financial and other resources than the Company.  These industries are also subject to a number of external influences, such as general economic conditions, interest rate levels, consumer confidence, and general credit availability.  Demand for the Company’s equipment has been negatively impacted by cost pressures facing its customers.  Continuation of these pressures could impact the Company’s ability to service its debt. 

At September 30, 2002, the Company had shareholders’ equity of $61,688,000 which included an accumulated deficit of $81,448,000 and had incurred net losses of $23,352,000, $21,587,000 and $6,434,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the eight months ended December 31, 2001 and the fiscal year ended April 30, 2001.  As more fully disclosed in Note 6, net losses included special charges and other operating expenses, net of $16,672,000 for the eight months ended December 31, 2001.  Losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 included losses related to a cumulative change in accounting principle of $21,812,000 as discussed in Note 7.

The Company has on several occasions negotiated amendments to its credit facility that waived certain defaults and brought the Company back into compliance.  The Company may continue to have difficulties in the future complying with the covenants and other requirements of the credit agreement, and in such event would have to seek additional waivers or amendments.  Such waivers typically require payment of substantial additional fees, and there can be no assurance that the lenders will agree to any future waivers or amendments.  The Company’s bank facilities are collateralized by liens on all of the Company’s assets.  The liens give the lenders the right to 

6

foreclose on the assets of the Company under certain defined events of default and such foreclosure could allow the lenders to gain control of the operations of the Company. 

On September 13, 2002, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to Credit Agreement in connection with its senior credit facility.  Pursuant to the Third Amendment, the amount of the mandatory periodic reductions in the RoadOne revolving loan commitment amount, as established in the April 15, 2002 Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, were increased by amounts calculated based on updated asset appraisals completed in September 2002.  Consequently, the Company will need to repay outstanding loans and permanently reduce the RoadOne loan commitment under its senior credit facility over the life of the loan and prior to the maturity date.  Pursuant to the terms of the Second and Third Amendments, the failure by the Company to repay outstanding loans and to reduce the RoadOne revolving loan commitment by the amounts and the times required pursuant to these amendments will result in increased interest rates on the senior loans and/or the occurrence of an event of default under the senior credit agreement.

In addition, pursuant to the Third Amendment, the amount of certain used inventory taken in trade that may be considered as eligible inventory for collateral purposes was limited to $4.3 million (subject to downward adjustments upon certain sales of sales of assets and stock by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries) through February 28, 2003 and reduced to $0 thereafter.  Accordingly, after February 28, 2003 the Company will not be able to include used goods taken in trade for purposes of determining borrowing availability under its existing senior loan facility and this may result in additional mandatory pay downs of outstanding loans.

On November 14, 2002, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Credit Facility, which granted waivers from the Senior Lenders of violations of certain financial covenants for the quarter ended September 2002. There were no violations under the Junior Credit facility. The Amendment also reduced the level of certain financial covenants for future periods, basing them strictly on the results of the towing and recovery equipment segment for those periods. In addition, the amendment revised the Road One revolving commitment amount based on the plan to sell all remaining towing service operations, reducing the commitment amount to $15.0 million at November 30, 2002, $12.0 million at December 31, 2002, $9.0 million at January 31, 2003, $6.0 million at February 28, 2003 and reducing to zero as of March 31, 2003. The entire Road One revolving line of credit has been classified as current maturities to reflect the commitment amounts set forth in the November 2002 amendments.  At November 14, 2002, the actual balance under the Road One Revolving line of credit was $15.7 million.

Meeting the new repayment schedule will require that the Company sell its towing services businesses according to its contemplated schedule on acceptable terms.  While the Company believes its timetable for sales is achievable, there can be no assurance that the schedule can be met.  Failure to achieve the Company’s timetable for such sales or cash flow projections could result in failure to comply with the amended debt service requirements.  Such non-compliance would result in an event of default, which if not waived by the lending groups, would result in the acceleration of the amounts due under the credit facility as well as other remedies.   In such case, the Company would seek to refinance the remaining balances, but there is no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain any such refinancing.  If the Company were unable to refinance the credit facility on acceptable terms or find an alternative source of repayment for the credit facility, the Company’s business and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.

7

Prior to making the determination to sell all of its remaining towing services operations, the Company had focused on cost reduction and expense control, as well as other opportunities for improving operating cash flows to improve liquidity. The Company has also disposed of certain underperforming RoadOne assets and operations in order to improve liquidity and to reduce expenses and debt.  As described in Note 3, in October 2002, the Company decided to sell all remaining towing services operations.  The Company received a tax refund of approximately $4.2 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2002, which also reduced the RoadOne revolver and cured the overadvance position that existed at that time.  An additional tax refund of $4.6 million was received during the quarter ended September 30, 2002, with proceeds used to further reduce the borrowings under the RoadOne revolver.  All of these efforts have resulted in approximately $18.3 million in reductions to the RoadOne revolver since December 31, 2001.  Additionally, the towing and recovery equipment revolver and the term loan have been reduced $3.5 million and $2.3 million, respectively, since year end. 

3.                Discontinued Operations

During the quarter ended June 30, 2002 the Company’s management and board of directors approved a plan to dispose of certain identified assets, which primarily consist of underperforming markets of the towing services segment.  These assets are considered a “disposal group” in accordance with the guidance set forth in SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets.  Accordingly, these assets are no longer being depreciated, and all assets and liabilities and results of operations associated with these assets have been separately presented in the accompanying financial statements as discontinued operations.  Prior period financial information has been reclassified to conform with this presentation.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company disposed of assets in thirteen underperforming markets, as well as certain assets in other markets.  Total proceeds from these sales were approximately $10,598,000.  As discussed above, these markets have been considered discontinued operations as of September 30, 2002 for financial reporting purposes.

The operating results for the discontinued towing services operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 were as follows (in thousands):

8

The following assets and liabilities were reclassified as held for sales (in thousands):

In October 2002, the Company made the decision to sell all remaining towing services operations. Between October 1, 2002 and November 12, 2002 the Company disposed of nine towing services operations in seven towing services markets, with proceeds of approximately $5.0 million.  In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the Company will report the entire towing services segment as discontinued operations, as of the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2002.  Accordingly, depreciation of fixed assets will cease as of October 1, 2002.  As of such date, all assets, liabilities, and results of operations will be separately presented as discontinued operations and all prior period financial information will be presented to conform with this treatment.

Risks Involved with Wind Down of Towing Services Division.  The Company is in the process of selling all of its remaining towing services businesses in a relatively short period of time.  The Company intends to have this process completed by December 31, 2002, although there can be no assurance that this timetable can be met.  The Company expects net cash proceeds from these sales to exceed the senior bank debt associated with the sold operations, as well as other associated liabilities.  In addition, almost all of these businesses will continue to operate under new ownership and in general their customary operating liabilities will be assumed by the new owners.  The Company nevertheless will be subject to some continuing liabilities with respect to the pre-sale operations of these businesses, including, for example, liabilities related to litigation, certain trade payables, parent guarantees, insurance, surety bonds, and real estate.  It is possible that the sale proceeds and the remaining assets of the towing services segment will not be sufficient to satisfy such liabilities.  The Company may also be subject to inefficiencies, management distractions, additional expenses and uncertainties resulting from the rapid wind down of the infrastructure that was developed to provide administrative support to over 100 towing service locations.  Administrative services such as insurance and surety bond coverage must be maintained for all remaining Company operations, but such services could become more expensive and difficult to maintain as the size of the remaining operations decrease.  Although the Company believes that it can manage the wind down effectively, there can be no assurance that such will be the case.  Even if the Company is able to manage the wind down effectively, it may nevertheless have an adverse impact on the Company’s operating results.

9

In addition, the Company has experienced difficulty in maintaining its insurance and surety bond coverage primarily as a result of disruption in these markets resulting from the events of September 11, 2001, general economic conditions and the Company’s operating results.  Prospective purchasers of towing services businesses have also experienced these difficulties, which could have an adverse impact on the ability of such purchasers to affect business acquisitions at prices satisfactory to the Company.

4.                 Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common and potential dilutive common shares outstanding.  Diluted net income per share takes into consideration the assumed conversion of outstanding stock options resulting in 8,000 potential dilutive common shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2,000 potential dilutive common shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, respectively. 

On October 1, 2001, the Company affected a one-for-five reverse common stock split.  All historical and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse common stock split.

5.                 Inventories

Inventory costs include materials, labor and factory overhead.  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, determined on a first-in, first-out basis.

Inventories at September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 consisted of the following (in thousands):

6.                  Special Charges and Other Expenses

The Company periodically reviews the carrying amount of the long-lived assets and goodwill in both its towing services and towing equipment businesses to determine if those assets may be recoverable based upon the future operating cash flows expected to be generated by those assets.  As a result of such review during the eight months ended December 31, 2001, the Company concluded that the carrying value of such assets in certain towing services markets and certain assets within the Company’s towing and recovery equipment segment were not fully recoverable.

Impairment charges of $10,778,000 were recorded in the eight months ended December 31, 2001 to write-down the goodwill in certain towing services markets to their estimated fair value.  Additionally, charges of $2,644,000 were recorded for the eight months ended December 31, 2001 to write-down the carrying value of certain fixed assets (primarily property and equipment) in related markets to estimated fair value.  The Company 

10

determined fair value for these assets on a market by market basis taking into consideration various factors affecting the valuation in each market.

The Company also reviewed the carrying values of goodwill associated with certain investments within its towing and recovery equipment segment.  This evaluation indicated that the recorded amounts of goodwill for certain of these investments were not fully recoverable.  Impairment charges of $1,480,000 were recorded to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill to estimated fair value at December 31, 2001.  The Company recorded $1,770,000 of additional costs related to the write-down of the carrying value of other long-lived assets of its towing and recovery equipment segment for the eight months ended December 31, 2001.

In accordance with SFAS No. 121 and APB No. 17, the Company wrote-off goodwill and long-lived assets of $3,250,000 associated with the towing and recovery equipment segment as of December 31, 2001.  Additionally, during the eight months ended December 31, 2001, the Company wrote-off goodwill and long-lived assets associated with the towing services segment of $13,422,000.  Management believes its long-lived assets are appropriately valued following the impairment charges.

 7.            Goodwill and Other Long-Lived Assets

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (collectively the “Standards”).  The Standards were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.  Companies with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001 could early adopt, but only as of the beginning of that fiscal year and only if all existing goodwill was evaluated for impairment by the end of that fiscal year.  SFAS No. 141 requires companies to recognize acquired identifiable intangible assets separately from goodwill if control over the future economic benefits of the asset results from contractual or other legal rights or the intangible asset is capable of being separated or divided and sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged.  The Standards require the value of a separately identifiable intangible asset meeting any of the criteria to be measured at its fair value.  SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill not be amortized and that amounts recorded as goodwill be tested for impairment.  Annual impairment tests have to be performed at the lowest level of an entity that is a business and that can be distinguished, physically and operationally and for internal reporting purposes, from the other activities, operations, and assets of the entity.

Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142 in January 2002, the Company ceased to amortize goodwill.  In lieu of amortization, the Company is required to perform an initial impairment review of goodwill in 2002 and an annual impairment review thereafter.  As a result of impairment reviews, the Company wrote-off goodwill of $2,886,000 in the towing equipment segment and $18,926,000 in the towing services segment during the nine months ended September 30, 2002.  The write-off has been accounted for as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle to reflect application of the new accounting standards.

 8.                Long-Term Obligations

2001 Credit Facility

In July 2001, the Company entered into a new four year senior credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders to replace the existing credit facility.  As part of this

11

agreement, the previous credit facility was reduced with proceeds from the Credit Facility and amended to provide for a $14.0 million subordinated secured facility.  The Credit Facility originally consisted of an aggregate $102.0 million revolving credit facility and an $8.0 million term loan.  The revolving credit facility provides for separate and distinct loan commitment levels for the Company’s towing and recovery equipment segment and RoadOne segment, respectively.  At September 30, 2002, $36.7 million and $19.8 million, respectively were outstanding under the towing and recovery equipment segment and RoadOne portions of the revolving credit facility.  In addition, $4.9 million was outstanding under the senior term loan, and $14.4 million was outstanding under the subordinated secured facility. 

Availability under the revolving Credit Facility is based on a formula of eligible accounts receivable, inventory and fleet vehicles as separately calculated for the towing and recovery equipment segment and the RoadOne segment, respectively.  Borrowings under the term loan are collateralized by the Company’s property, plant, and equipment.  The Company is required to make monthly amortization payments on the term loan of $167,000.  The Credit Facility bears interest at the option of the Company at either the rate of LIBOR plus 2.75% or prime rate (as defined) plus 0.75% on the revolving portion and LIBOR plus 3.0% or prime rate (as defined) plus 1.0% on the term portion.

The Credit Facility matures in July 2005 and is collateralized by substantially all the assets of the Company.  The Credit Facility contains requirements relating to maintaining minimum excess availability at all times and minimum quarterly levels of earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (as defined) and a minimum quarterly fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined).  In addition, the Credit Facility contains restrictions on capital expenditures, incurrence of indebtedness, mergers and acquisitions, distributions and transfers and sales of assets.  The Credit Facility also contains requirements related to weekly and monthly collateral reporting.

The subordinated secured facility matures in July 2003 and bears interest at 6.0% over the prime rate.  The Company is required to make quarterly amortization payments on the subordinated secured facility of $875,000 beginning not later than May 2002 provided that certain conditions are met, including satisfying a fixed charge coverage ratio test and a minimum availability limit.  The subordinated secured facility is collateralized by certain specified assets of the Company and by a second priority lien and security interest in substantially all other assets of the Company.  The subordinated secured facility contains requirements for certain fees to be paid at six month intervals beginning in January 2002 based on the outstanding balance of the subordinated secured facility at the time.  The subordinated secured facility also contains provisions for the issuance of warrants for up to 0.5% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock in July 2002 and up to an additional 1.5% in July 2003.  The number of warrants which may be issued would be reduced pro rata as the balance of the subordinated secured facility is reduced.  On July 23, 2002, the Company issued 47,417 warrants for the purchase of common stock in conjunction with these related provisions.

The subordinated secured credit facility contains, among other restrictions, requirements for the maintenance of certain financial covenants and imposes restrictions on capital expenditures, incurrence of indebtedness, mergers and acquisitions, distributions and transfers and sales of assets.

2002 Amendments

On February 28, 2002 the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement and First Amendment to Credit Agreement with the lenders under the Credit Facility, as amended 

12

by that certain Amendment to Forbearance Agreement dated as of March 18, 2002 and that certain Second Amendment to the Forbearance Agreement dated as of March 29, 2002 (as so amended, the “Forbearance Agreement”).  As a result of a revised asset appraisal conducted by the senior lenders, the senior lenders determined that the amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility should be lowered below the amount then outstanding under the Credit Facility, causing the Company to be over-advanced on its line of credit which resulted in the occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Facility and a corresponding event of default under the Junior Credit Facility.  The Forbearance Agreement and subsequent amendments waived the Company’s overadvance under the Credit Facility and amended the terms of the credit agreement to, among other things, (i) permanently reduce the commitment levels to $42.0 million for the towing and recovery equipment segment and $36.0 million for the RoadOne segment portion of the revolving credit facility and $6,611,000 for the term loan facility, (ii) eliminate the Company’s ability to borrow funds at a LIBOR rate of interest, and (iii) increase the interest rate to a floating rate of interest equal to the prime rate plus 2.75%.

On April 15, 2002 the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Credit Facility, pursuant to which, among other things: (i) the senior lenders waived the overadvance event of default and other events of default, (ii) interest on advances will be charged at the prime rate (as defined) plus 2.75% on the revolving portion and the term portion, subject to substantial upward adjustments in the interest rate on and after certain specified dates based on the amounts outstanding if the scheduled loan reductions are not achieved under the revolving loan commitment relating to RoadOne (escalating at generally quarterly intervals from prime plus 4.50% as of October 1, 2002 to prime plus 14.00% as of April 1, 2005) and (iii) the revolving loan commitment amount relating to RoadOne is subject to mandatory reductions over time commencing August 12, 2002, which reductions will require a mandatory repayment of portions of outstanding loans at specified dates and the failure to timely make such repayments shall result in an event of default under the bank credit agreements.  The RoadOne revolving commitment amount, which was set at $36.0 million through the April 15, 2002 amendment, is scheduled to be reduced as follows:  August 12, 2002 – to $34.0 million; October 12, 2002 – to $30.0 million; March 31, 2003 – to $27.0 million; thereafter – quarterly reductions of $3.0 million through June 30, 2005, the approximate stated loan termination date.  At September 30, 2002, the balance of the RoadOne revolver was $19.8 million.

On April 15, 2002 the Company also amended the Junior Credit Facility, pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the junior lenders waived the events of default, and (ii) extended the time for payment of certain scheduled amortization payments and receive certain of its interest as “payment in kind” to be added to the principal balance.  On April 15, 2002, the junior lender agent, the senior lender agent and the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, subject to certain terms and conditions, the junior lenders have agreed to defer the required payment of amortization payments under the Junior Credit Facility until November 20, 2002, April 5, 2003 and May 20, 2003. 

On September 13, 2002, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to Credit Agreement in connection with its senior credit facility.  Pursuant to the Third Amendment, the amount of the mandatory periodic reductions in the RoadOne revolving loan commitment amount, as established in the April 15, 2002 Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, were increased by amounts calculated based on updated asset appraisals completed in September 2002.  Consequently, the Company will need to repay outstanding loans and permanently reduce the RoadOne loan commitment under its senior credit facility over the life of the loan and prior to the maturity date.  Pursuant to

13

the terms of the Second and Third Amendments, the failure by the Company to repay outstanding loans and to reduce the RoadOne revolving loan commitment by the amounts and the times required pursuant to these amendments will result in increased interest rates on the senior loans and/or the occurrence of an event of default under the senior credit agreement.

In addition, pursuant to the Third Amendment, the amount of certain used inventory taken in trade that may be considered as eligible inventory for collateral purposes was limited to $4.3 million (subject to downward adjustments upon certain sales of sales of assets and stock by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries) through February 28, 2003 and reduced to $0 thereafter.  Accordingly, after February 28, 2003 the Company will not be able to include used goods taken in trade for purposes of determining borrowing availability under its existing senior loan facility and this may result in additional mandatory pay downs of outstanding loans.

On November 14, 2002, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Credit Facility, which granted waivers from the Senior Lenders of violations of certain financial covenants for the quarter ended September 2002. There were no violations under the Junior Credit facility. The Amendment also reduced the level of certain financial covenants for future periods, basing them strictly on the results of the towing and recovery equipment segment for those periods. In addition, the amendment revised the Road One revolving commitment amount based on the plan to sell all remaining towing service operations, reducing the commitment amount to $15.0 million at November 30, 2002, $12.0 million at December 31, 2002, $9.0 million at January 31,2003, $6.0 million at February 28, 2003 and reducing to zero as of March 31, 2003. The entire Road One revolving line of credit has been classified as current maturities to reflect the commitment amounts set forth in the November 2002 amendments.   At November 14, 2002, the actual balance under the Road One Revolving line of credit was $15.7 million.

Meeting the new repayment schedule will require that the Company sell its towing services businesses according to its contemplated schedule on acceptable terms.  While the Company believes its timetable for sales is achievable, there can be no assurance that the schedule can be met.

The Company may continue to have difficulties in the future making the mandatory repayments and complying with the covenants and other requirements of the Credit Facility, and in such event would have to seek additional waivers or amendments.  Such waivers typically require payment of substantial additional fees, and there can be no assurance that the lenders will agree to any future waivers or amendments.  The Company’s bank facilities are collateralized by liens on all of the Company’s assets.  The liens give the lenders the right to foreclose on the assets of the Company under certain defined events of default and such foreclosure could allow the lenders to gain control of the operations of the Company. 

The Company believes that it will be able to maintain compliance with the financial covenants established by the various amendments to the Credit Facility, which will allow the Company to maintain sufficient liquidity in 2002 to fund operations.  Failure to achieve the Company’s revenue and income projections, or to sell towing service operations for the prices and on the timetable contemplated, could result in failure to comply with the amended debt service requirements.  Such non-compliance would result in an event of default, which if not waived by the lending groups would result in the acceleration of the amounts due under the Credit Facility as well as other remedies.  Under these circumstances the Company could be required to find alternative funding sources, such as sale of assets or other financing sources.  If the Company were unable to refinance the Credit Facility on acceptable terms or find an alternative source of 

14

repayment for the Credit Facility, the Company’s business and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.  There is no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain any such refinancing or that it would be able to sell assets on terms that are acceptable to the Company or at all.

Prior to making the determination to sell all of its remaining towing services operations, the Company had focused on cost reduction and expense control, as well as other opportunities for improving operating cash flows, to improve liquidity. The Company has also disposed of certain underperforming RoadOne assets and operations in order to improve liquidity and to reduce expenses and debt.  As described in Note 3, in October 2002, the Company decided to sell all remaining towing services operations.  The Company received a tax refund of approximately $4.2 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2002, which also reduced the RoadOne revolver and cured the overadvance position that existed at that time.  An additional tax refund of approximately $4.6 million was received during the quarter ended September 30, 2002, with proceeds used to further reduce the borrowings under the RoadOne revolver.  All of these efforts have resulted in $18.3 million in reductions to the RoadOne revolver since December 31, 2001.  Additionally, the towing and recovery equipment revolver and the term loan have been reduced $3.5 million and $2.3 million, respectively, since year end.

9.                Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the normal course of its business.  Management believes that the Company maintains adequate insurance coverage and as a result, none of these actions, individually or in the aggregate are expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or operations of the Company.

10.                Income Taxes

A deferred tax asset valuation allowance of $7.1 million was established as of December 31, 2001.  As of September 30, 2002, the deferred tax asset valuation allowance was increased to $8.6 million.  The valuation allowance reflects the Company’s recognition that continuing losses from operations and certain liquidity matters discussed in Note 2 indicate that it is more likely than not that certain future tax benefits will not be realized as a result of future taxable income.

11.                Comprehensive Income

The Company has other comprehensive income (loss) in the form of cumulative translation adjustments and amortization of losses on early termination of interest rate swap transactions as more fully discussed in Note 12.  Total other comprehensive income (loss) of approximately $(67,000) and $94,000 were recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively; and $196,000 and $(155,000) were recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

12.                Financial Instruments And Hedging Activities

SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument (including certain derivatives embedded in other contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value.  SFAS No. 133 requires that

changes in the derivatives fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge criteria are met.  Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative’s gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item on the income statement, and requires that the Company must formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting.

In October 2001, the Company obtained interest rate swaps as required by terms in its Credit Facility to hedge exposure to market fluctuations.  The interest rate swaps covered $40.0 million in notional amounts of variable rate debt and with fixed rates ranging from 2.535% to 3.920%.  The swaps expired annually from October 2002 to October 2004.  Because the Company hedges only with derivatives that have high correlation with the underlying transaction pricing, changes in derivatives fair values and the underlying pricing largely offset.  The hedges were deemed to be fully effective resulting in a pretax loss of $12,000 recorded in Other Comprehensive Loss at December 31, 2001.  Upon expiration of these hedges, the amount recorded in Other Comprehensive Loss will be reclassified into earnings as interest.  During the first quarter of 2002, the borrowing base was converted from LIBOR to prime, which rendered the swap ineffective as a hedge.  Accordingly, concurrent with the conversion, the Company prematurely terminated the swap in February 2002 at a cost of $341,000.  The resulting loss was recorded in Other Comprehensive Loss in February 2002 and will be reclassified to earnings as interest expense over the term of the Credit Facility.

At September 30, 2002, the Company had no other derivative instruments or hedging transactions.

13.               Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of SFAS Nos. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of SFAS No. 13, and Technical Corrections as of April 2002.”  This Statement rescinds SFAS No. 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of DEBT”, and an amendment of that Statement, SFAS No. 64, “Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements.”  This Statement also rescinds SFAS No. 44, “Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers.”  This Statement amends SFAS No. 13, “Accounting for Leases”, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions.  SFAS No. 145 will be effective for fiscal 2003, which begins January 1, 2002.  Management does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations of financial position.

FASB has issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities”. SFAS 146 addresses the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs that are associated with exit and disposal activities, including costs related to terminating a contract that is not a capital lease and termination benefits that employees who are involuntarily terminated receive under the terms of a one-time benefit arrangement that is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred-compensation contract.  SFAS 146 supersedes Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)” and requires liabilities associated with exit and disposal activities to be expensed as incurred.  SFAS 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities of the Company that are initiated after December 31, 2002.

14.               Segment Information

The Company operates in two principal operating segments:  (i) towing and recovery equipment and (ii) towing services.  The table below presents information about reported segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 (in thousands):

17

Recent Developments

Change in Fiscal Year

On September 25, 2001, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved a change in the Company’s fiscal year, from April 30 to December 31, effective December 31, 2001.  The change to a December 31 fiscal year will enable the Company to report results on a conventional calendar basis beginning in 2002.  As a result of the change in fiscal year, the Company filed a transition report for the eight month period ended December 31, 2001.

Discontinued Operations

During the quarter ended June 30, 2002 the Company’s management and board of directors approved a plan to dispose of certain identified assets, which primarily consist of underperforming markets of the towing services segment.  These assets are considered a “disposal group” in accordance with the guidance set forth in SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets.  Accordingly, these assets are no longer being depreciated, and all assets and liabilities and results of operations associated with these assets have been separately presented in the accompanying financial statements as discontinued operations.  Prior period financial information has been reclassified to conform with this presentation.  The discussions and analyses contained herein are of continuing operations, as restated, unless otherwise noted.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company disposed of assets in thirteen underperforming markets, as well as assets in certain other markets for proceeds of approximately $10,598,000. 

In October 2002, the Company made the decision to sell all remaining towing services operations.  The Company intends to complete this sale process by December 31, 2002, although there can be no assurance that this timetable can be met.  Between October 1, 2002 and November 12, 2002, the Company disposed of nine towing services operations in seven towing services markets, with proceeds of approximately $5.0 million.  In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the Company will report the entire towing services segment as discontinued operations as of the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2002.  Accordingly, depreciation of fixed assets will cease as of October 1, 2002.  As of such date, all assets, liabilities,

18

and results of operations will be separately presented as discontinued operations and all prior period financial information will be presented to conform with this treatment.

Risks Involved with Wind Down of Towing Services Division.  The Company is in the process of selling all of its remaining towing services businesses in a relatively short period of time.  The Company intends to have this process completed by December 31, 2002, although there can be no assurance that this timetable can be met.  The Company expects net cash proceeds from these sales to exceed their senior bank debt associated with sold operations, as well as other associated liabilities.  In addition, almost all of these businesses will continue to operate under new ownership and in general their customary operating liabilities will be assumed by the new owners.  The Company nevertheless will be subject to some continuing liabilities with respect to the pre-sale operations of these businesses including, for example, liabilities related to litigation, certain trade payables, parent guarantees, insurance, surety bonds, and real estate.  It is possible that the sale proceeds and the remaining assets of the towing services segment will not be sufficient to satisfy such liabilities.  The Company may also be subject to inefficiencies, management distractions, additional expenses and uncertainties resulting from the rapid wind down of the infrastructure that was developed to provide administrative support to over 100 towing service locations.  Administrative services such as insurance and surety bond coverage must be maintained for all remaining Company operations, but such services could become more expensive and difficult to maintain as the size of the remaining operations decrease.  Although the Company believes that it can manage the wind down effectively, there can be no assurance that such will be the case.  Even if the Company is able to manage the wind down effectively, it may nevertheless have an adverse impact on the Company’s operating results. 

In addition, the Company has experienced difficulty in maintaining its insurance and surety bond coverage primarily as a result of disruption in these markets resulting from the events of September 11, 2001, general economic conditions and the Company’s operating results.  Prospective purchasers of towing services businesses have also experienced these difficulties, which could have been an adverse impact on the ability of such purchasers to effect business acquisitions at prices satisfactorily to the Company.

Results of Operations--Three Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2001

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2002, decreased 4.8% to $93.8 million from $98.5 million for the comparable period in 2001.   Net sales in the towing and recovery equipment segment decreased 5.7% from $74.0 million to $69.8 million as demand for the Company’s towing and recovery equipment continued to be negatively impacted by the cost pressures facing its customers and the tightness of the current credit markets.  Net sales in the towing services segment decreased 2.0% from $24.5 million to $24.0 million.  Revenue in the towing services segment was negatively affected by the impact of the Company’s ongoing efforts to sell or close underperforming markets.

Costs of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2002, decreased 3.3% to $81.8 from $84.7 million for the comparable period in 2001.  Costs of operations of the towing and recovery equipment segment decreased slightly as a percentage of net sales from 88.2% to 88.0%.  In the towing services segment, costs of operations as a percentage of net sales also increased from 78.9% to 85.0%.  The increase reflects the impact of higher operating costs, particularly insurance costs.

19

Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2002, decreased to $10.5 million from $11.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001.

Net interest expense decreased $0.3 million to $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 from $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 as a result of a decrease in debt levels.

Income taxes are accounted for on a consolidated basis and are not allocated by segment.  Tax expenses for the quarter relate primarily to income taxes of foreign subsidiaries and certain state taxes, and do not reflect any tax benefit for losses reported by U.S. operations.  The effective rate of the provision (benefit) for income taxes were not meaningful for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and (57.6)% for the three months ended September 30, 2001.

For the three months ended September 30, 2002, the loss from discontinued operations was $0.2 compared to $0.9 million for the prior year period.  The decrease in losses is primarily the result of the Company’s efforts to dispose of the least profitable operations early in the disposal process.  The loss from the sales of discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 was $0.0 and $0.2 million, respectively. 

Results of Operations--Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, decreased 7.3% to $286.6 million from $309.2 million for the comparable period in 2001.  Net sales in the towing and recovery equipment segment decreased 8.1% from $234.4 million to $215.3 million as demand for the Company’s towing and recovery equipment continued to be negatively impacted by the cost pressures facing its customers and the tightness of the current credit markets.  Net sales in the towing services segment decreased 4.7% from $74.8 million to $71.3 million.  Revenues in the towing services segment were negatively affected by the impact of the Company’s ongoing efforts to sell or close underperforming markets.

Costs of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, decreased 6.5% to $247.5 from $264.9 million for the comparable period in 2001.  Costs of operations of the towing and recovery equipment segment decreased slightly as a percentage of net sales from 88.1% to 87.7%.  In the towing services segment, costs of operations as a percentage of net sales increased from 77.9% to 82.4%.  The increase reflects the impact of higher operating costs, particularly insurance costs. 

Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, decreased 9.7% to $31.9 million from $35.4 million for the comparable period of 2001.  The decrease was due primarily to the continued cost reduction efforts implemented in prior fiscal years.

Net interest expense decreased $2.9 million to $6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 from $9.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company incurred lower interest expense as a result of refinancing its line of credit at more favorable rates in July 2001, as well as a decrease in debt levels.

20

Income taxes are accounted for on a consolidated basis and are not allocated by segment.  Tax expenses for the quarter relate primarily to income taxes of foreign subsidiaries and certain state taxes, and do not reflect any tax benefit for losses reported by U.S. operations.  The effective rate of the provision for (benefit from) income taxes was 84.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and not meaningful for the nine months ended September 30, 2001.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the loss from discontinued operations was $1.6 million compared to $3.4 million for the prior year period.  The decrease in losses is primarily the result of the Company’s efforts to dispose of the least profitable operations early in the disposal process.  The loss from the sales of discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 was $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities was $23.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, which included tax refunds of approximately $9.0 million, compared to $27.4 million for the comparable period of 2001.  The cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 was primarily the result of the aforementioned tax refund received, as well as an increase in accounts payable and a decrease in inventory, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable.

Cash used in investing activities was $4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared to $1.8 million for the comparable period in 2001.  The cash used in investing activities was primarily for the purchase of equipment in the towing services segment.

Cash used in financing activities was $24.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and $25.0 million for the comparable period in the prior year.  The cash was used primarily to reduce borrowings under Company's credit facilities and other outstanding long-term debt and capital lease obligations.

2001 Credit Facility

In July 2001, the Company entered into a new four year senior credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders to replace the existing credit facility.  As part of this agreement, the previous credit facility was reduced with proceeds from the Credit Facility and amended to provide for a $14.0 million subordinated secured facility.  The Credit Facility originally consisted of an aggregate $102.0 million revolving credit facility and an $8.0 million term loan.  The revolving credit facility provides for separate and distinct loan commitment levels for the Company’s towing and recovery equipment segment and RoadOne segment, respectively.  At September 30, 2002, $36.7 million and $19.8 million, respectively were outstanding under the towing and recovery equipment segment and RoadOne portions of the revolving credit facility.  In addition, $­­4.9 million was outstanding under the senior term loan, and $14.4 million was outstanding under the subordinated secured facility. 

Availability under the revolving Credit Facility is based on a formula of eligible accounts receivable, inventory and fleet vehicles as separately calculated for the towing and recovery equipment segment and the RoadOne segment, respectively.  Borrowings under the term loan are collateralized by the Company’s property, plant, and equipment.  The Company is required to make monthly amortization payments on the term loan of

21

 $167,000.  The Credit Facility bears interest at the option of the Company at either the rate of LIBOR plus 2.75% or prime rate (as defined) plus 0.75% on the revolving portion and LIBOR plus 3.0% or prime rate (as defined) plus 1.0% on the term portion.

The Credit Facility matures in July 2005 and is collateralized by substantially all the assets of the Company.  The Credit Facility contains requirements relating to maintaining minimum excess availability at all times and minimum quarterly levels of earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (as defined) and a minimum quarterly fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined).  In addition, the Credit Facility contains restrictions on capital expenditures, incurrence of indebtedness, mergers and acquisitions, distributions and transfers and sales of assets.  The Credit Facility also contains requirements related to weekly and monthly collateral reporting.

The subordinated secured facility is by its terms expressly subordinated only to the Credit Facility.  The subordinated secured facility matures in July 2003 and bears interest at 6.0% over the prime rate.  The Company is required to make quarterly amortization payments on the subordinated secured facility of $875,000 beginning not later than May 2002 provided that certain conditions are met, including satisfying a fixed charge coverage ratio test and a minimum availability limit.  The subordinated secured facility is collateralized by certain specified assets of the Company and by a second priority lien and security interest in substantially all other assets of the Company.  The subordinated secured facility contains requirements for certain fees to be paid at six month intervals beginning in January 2002 based on the outstanding balance of the subordinated secured facility at the time.  The subordinated secured facility also contains provisions for the issuance of warrants for up to 0.5% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock in July 2002 and up to an additional 1.5% in July 2003.  The number of warrants which may be issued would be reduced pro rata as the balance of the subordinated secured facility is reduced.  On July 23, 2002, the Company issued 47,417 warrants for the purchase of common stock in conjunction with these related provisions.

The subordinated secured credit facility contains, among other restrictions, requirements for the maintenance of certain financial covenants and imposes restrictions on capital expenditures, incurrence of indebtedness, mergers and acquisitions, distributions and transfers and sales of assets.

2002 Amendments

On February 28, 2002 the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement and First Amendment to Credit Agreement with the lenders under the Credit Facility, as amended by that certain Amendment to Forbearance Agreement dated as of March 18, 2002 and that certain Second Amendment to the Forbearance Agreement dated as of March 29, 2002 (as so amended, the “Forbearance Agreement”).  As a result of a revised asset appraisal conducted by the senior lenders, the senior lenders determined that the amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility should be lowered below the amount then outstanding under the Credit Facility, causing the Company to be over-advanced on its line of credit which resulted in the occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Facility and a corresponding event of default under the Junior Credit Facility.  The Forbearance Agreement and subsequent amendments waived the Company’s overadvance under the Credit Facility and amended the terms of the credit agreement to, among other things, (i) permanently reduce the commitment levels to $42.0 million for the towing and recovery equipment segment and $36.0 million for the RoadOne segment portion of the revolving credit facility and $6,611,000 for the term loan facility, (ii) eliminate the Company’s ability to borrow funds at a LIBOR rate of interest, and (iii) increase the interest rate to a floating rate of interest equal to the prime rate plus 2.75%.

22

On April 15, 2002 the Company entered into the Second Amendment the Credit Facility, pursuant to which, among other things: (i) the senior lenders waived the overadvance event of default and other events of default, (ii) interest on advances will be charged at the prime rate (as defined) plus 2.75% on the revolving portion and the term portion, subject to substantial upward adjustments in the interest rate on and after certain specified dates based on the amounts outstanding if the scheduled loan reductions are not achieved under the revolving loan commitment relating to RoadOne (escalating at generally quarterly intervals from prime plus 4.50% as of October 1, 2002 to prime plus 14.00% as of April 1, 2005) and (iii) the revolving loan commitment amount relating to RoadOne is subject to mandatory reductions over time commencing August 12, 2002, which reductions will require a mandatory repayment of portions of outstanding loans at specified dates and the failure to timely make such repayments shall result in an event of default under the bank credit agreements.  The RoadOne revolving commitment amount, which was set at $36.0 million through the April 15, 2002 amendment, is scheduled to be reduced as follows:  August 12, 2002 – to $34.0 million; October 12, 2002 – to $30.0 million; March 31, 2003 – to $27.0 million; thereafter – quarterly reductions of $3.0 million through June 30, 2005, the approximate stated loan termination date.  On April 15, 2002 the Company also amended the Junior Credit Facility, pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the junior lenders waived the events of default, and (ii) extended the time for payment of certain scheduled amortization payments.  At September 30, 2002, the balance of the RoadOne revolver was $19.8 million.

On April 15, 2002, the junior lender agent, the senior lender agent and the Company entered into an Amended and Restated  Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, subject to certain terms and conditions, the junior lenders have agreed to defer the required payment of amortization payments under the Junior Credit Facility until November 20, 2002, April 5, 2003 and May 20, 2003 and receive certain of its interest as “payment in kind” to be added to the principal balance. 

On September 13, 2002, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to Credit Agreement in connection with its senior credit facility.  Pursuant to the Third Amendment, the amount of the mandatory periodic reductions in the RoadOne revolving loan commitment amount, as established in the April 15, 2002 Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, were increased by amounts calculated based on updated asset appraisals completed in September 2002.  Consequently, the Company will need to repay outstanding loans and permanently reduce the RoadOne loan commitment under its senior credit facility over the life of the loan and prior to the maturity date.  Pursuant to the terms of the Second and Third Amendments, the failure by the Company to repay outstanding loans and to reduce the RoadOne revolving loan commitment by the amounts and the times required pursuant to these amendments will result in increased interest rates on the senior loans and/or the occurrence of an event of default under the senior credit agreement.

In addition, pursuant to the Third Amendment, the amount of certain used inventory taken in trade that may be considered as eligible inventory for collateral purposes was limited to $4.3 million (subject to downward adjustments upon certain sales of sales of assets and stock by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries) through February 28, 2003 and reduced to $0 thereafter.  Accordingly, after February 28, 2003 the Company will not be able to include used goods taken in trade for purposes of determining borrowing availability under its existing senior loan facility and this may result in additional mandatory pay downs of outstanding loans.

23

On November 14, 2002, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Credit Facility, which granted waivers from the Senior Lenders of violations of certain financial covenants for the quarter ended September 2002. There were no violations under the Junior Credit facility. The Amendment also reduced the level of certain financial covenants for future periods, basing them strictly on the results of the towing and recovery equipment segment for those periods. In addition, the amendment revised the Road One revolving commitment amount based on the plan to sell all remaining towing service operations, reducing the commitment amount to $15.0 million at November 30, 2002, $12.0 million at December 31, 2002, $9.0 million at January 31,2003, $6.0 million at February 28, 2003 and reducing to zero as of March 31, 2003.  The entire Road One revolving line of credit has been classified as current maturities to reflect the commitment amounts set forth in the November 2002 amendments.   At November 14, 2002, the actual balance under the Road One Revolving line of credit was $15.7 million.

Meeting the new repayment schedule will require that the Company sell its towing services businesses according to its contemplated schedule on acceptable terms.  While the Company believes its timetable for sales is achievable there can be no assurance that the schedule can be met.

The Company may continue to have difficulties in the future making the mandatory repayments and complying with the covenants and other requirements of the credit agreement, and in such event would have to seek additional waivers or amendments.  Such waivers typically require payment of substantial additional fees, and there can be no assurance that the lenders will agree to any future waivers or amendments.  The Company’s bank facilities are collateralized by liens on all of the Company’s assets.  The liens give the lenders the right to foreclose on the assets of the Company under certain defined events of default and such foreclosure could allow the lenders to gain control of the operations of the Company. 

In addition to the borrowings under the senior and junior credit facilities described above, the Company had approximately $6.1 million of mortgage notes payable, equipment notes payable and other long-term obligations at September 30, 2002.  At September 30, 2002, the Company also had approximately $17.2 million in non-cancellable operating lease obligations.  Approximately, $11.4 million relates to truck and building leases in the towing services segment.

Prior to making the determination to sell all of its remaining towing services operations, the Company had focused on cost reduction and expense control, as well as other opportunities for improving operating cash flows to improve liquidity. The Company has also disposed of certain underperforming RoadOne assets and operations in order to improve liquidity and to reduce expenses and debt.  As described in Note 3, in October 2002, the Company decided to sell all remaining towing services operations.  The Company received a tax refund of approximately $4.2 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2002, which also reduced the RoadOne revolver and cured the overadvance position that existed at that time.   An additional tax refund of approximately $4.6 million was received during the quarter ended September 30, 2002, with proceeds used to further reduce the borrowings under the RoadOne revolver.  All of these efforts have resulted in $18.3 million in reductions to the RoadOne revolver since December 31, 2001.  Additionally, the towing and recovery equipment revolver and the term loan have been reduced $3.5 million and $2.3 million, respectively, since year end.  

The Company believes that it will be able to maintain compliance with the financial covenants established by the various amendments to the Credit Facility amendment, which will allow the Company to maintain sufficient liquidity in 2002 to fund operations.  Failure to achieve the Company’s revenue and income projections, or to sell towing services operations for the prices and on the timetable contemplated, could result in

24

failure to comply with the amended debt service requirements.  Such non-compliance would result in an event of default, which if not waived by the lending groups, would result in the acceleration of the amounts due under the Credit Facility as well as other remedies.  Under these circumstances the Company could be required to find alternative funding sources, such as sale of assets or other financing sources.  If the Company were unable to refinance the Credit Facility on acceptable terms or find an alternative source of repayment for the Credit Facility, the Company’s business and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.  There is no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain any such refinancing or that it would be able to sell assets on terms that are acceptable to the Company or at all.

Certain statements in this Form 10-Q, including but not limited to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” may be deemed to be forward-looking statements, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Such forward-looking statements are made based on management’s belief as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management pursuant to “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  The Company’s actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to, among other things, the risks referenced herein and the risk factors set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Transition Report on Form 10-K, filed on April 22, 2002, and in particular, the risks associated with the wind down of the towing services segment and the risks associated with the terms of the Company’s substantial indebtedness.  The Company cautions that such factors are not exclusive.  The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement that may be made from time to time by, or on behalf of, the Company.

Within 90 days prior to the filing date of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of this evaluation.
