Items 2, 4 and 5 of this Statement are hereby amended as set forth below. The Reporting Persons (as defined below) are filing this Statement as a result of the Company's purchases of Shares, which purchases have increased the percentage of outstanding Shares the Reporting Persons own. Item 2. Identity and Background. Items 2(a), (d), (e) and (f) are amended and restated as follows: (a) This Statement is filed (i) by Tremont Corporation ("Tremont") and Valhi, Inc. ("Valhi") as the direct holders of Shares, (ii) by virtue of the direct and indirect ownership of securities of Tremont and Valhi (as described below in this Statement), by Valhi Group, Inc. ("VGI"), National City Lines, Inc. ("National"), NOA, Inc. ("NOA"), Dixie Holding Company ("Dixie Holding"), Dixie Rice Agricultural Corporation, Inc. ("Dixie Rice"), Southwest Louisiana Land Company, Inc. ("Southwest"), Contran Corporation ("Contran"), The Combined Master Retirement Trust (the "CMRT") and the Harold Simmons Foundation, Inc. (the "Foundation") and (iii) by virtue of his positions with Contran and certain of the other entities (as described in this Statement), by Harold C. Simmons (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"). By signing this Statement, each Reporting Person agrees that this Statement is filed on its or his behalf. Valhi and Tremont are the direct holders of approximately 60.1% and 20.4%, respectively, of the 50,113,940 Shares outstanding as of August 1, 2000 according to information received from the Company (the "Outstanding Shares"). Together, Valhi and Tremont may be deemed to control the Company. Valhi, the Company, Tremont Holdings, LLC ("TRE Holdings"), the Foundation and the CMRT are the direct holders of approximately 60.0%, 8.4%, 7.8%, 3.1% and 0.1%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of common stock of Tremont. NL is the sole member of TRE Holdings and may be deemed to control TRE Holdings. Together, Valhi, NL and TRE Holdings may be deemed to control Tremont. VGI, National, Contran, the Foundation, the Contran Deferred Compensation Trust No. 2 (the "CDCT No. 2") and the CMRT are the direct holders of 81.7%, 9.5%, 1.6%, 0.5%, 0.4% and 0.1%, respectively, of the common stock of Valhi. Together, VGI, National and Contran may be deemed to control Valhi. National, NOA and Dixie Holding are the direct holders of approximately 73.3%, 11.4% and 15.3%, respectively, of the outstanding common stock of VGI. Together, National, NOA and Dixie Holding may be deemed to control VGI. Contran and NOA are the direct holders of approximately 85.7% and 14.3%, respectively, of the outstanding common stock of National and together may be deemed to control National.

Substantially all of Contran's outstanding voting stock is held either by trusts established for the benefit of certain children and grandchildren of Harold C. Simmons (the "Trusts"), of which Mr. Simmons is the sole trustee, or by Mr. Simmons directly. As sole trustee of each of the Trusts, Mr. Simmons has the power to vote and direct the disposition of the shares of Contran stock held by each of the Trusts. Mr. Simmons, however, disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Contran stock that the Trusts hold. The CMRT directly holds approximately 0.1% of each of the outstanding shares of Tremont and Valhi common stock. Valhi established the CMRT to permit the collective investment by master trusts that maintain the assets of certain employee benefit plans Valhi and related companies adopt. Mr. Simmons is the sole trustee of the CMRT and a member of the trust investment committee for the CMRT. Mr. Simmons is a participant in one or more of the employee benefit plans that invest through the CMRT.

The Foundation is a tax-exempt foundation organized for charitable purposes. Harold C. Simmons is the chairman of the board and chief executive officer of the Foundation and may be deemed to control the Foundation. The CDCT No. 2 directly holds approximately 0.4% of the outstanding Valhi common stock. U.S. Bank National Association serves as the trustee of the CDCT No. 2. Contran established the CDCT No. 2 as an irrevocable "rabbi trust" to assist Contran in meeting certain deferred compensation obligations that it owed to Harold C. Simmons. If the CDCT No. 2 assets are insufficient to satisfy such obligations, Contran is obligated to satisfy the balance of such obligations as they come due. Pursuant to the terms of the CDCT No. 2, Contran (i) retains the power to vote the shares of Valhi common stock held directly by the CDCT No. 2, (ii) retains dispositive power over such shares and (iii) may be deemed the indirect beneficial owner of such shares. Valmont Insurance Company ("Valmont") and a subsidiary of the Company directly own 1,000,000 shares and 1,186,200 shares, respectively, of Valhi common stock. Pursuant to Delaware law, Valhi treats the shares of Valhi common stock that Valmont and the subsidiary of the Company own directly as treasury stock for voting purposes and for the purposes of this Statement are not deemed outstanding. Mr. Harold C. Simmons is chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Valhi, VGI, National, NOA, Dixie Holding, Dixie Rice, Southwest and Contran. Mr. Simmons is also chairman of the board of the Company and a director of Tremont. By virtue of the holding of the offices, the stock ownership and his service as trustee, all as described above, (a) Mr. Simmons may be deemed to control the entities described above and (b) Mr. Simmons and certain of such entities may be deemed to possess indirect beneficial ownership of Shares that Valhi and Tremont hold directly. However, Mr. Simmons disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any of such entities. Harold C. Simmons' spouse is the direct owner of 69,475 Shares, 3,747 shares of Tremont common stock and 77,000 shares of Valhi common stock. Mr. Simmons may be deemed to share indirect beneficial ownership of such shares. Mr. Simmons disclaims all such beneficial ownership.
