(the "Company") announced today that it is extending the Consent Date with respect to its tender offer (the "Offer") for any and all of its $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 12% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 (CUSIP No. 87815VAC7) (the "Notes") from 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Monday, March 8, 2004 to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Thursday, March 11, 2004. As of March 8, 2004, the principal amount of Notes tendered was approximately $53 million. The Offer is scheduled to expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Monday, March 22, 2004, unless extended or earlier terminated (the "Expiration Date"). Holders tendering their Notes will be required to consent to certain proposed amendments to the indenture governing the Notes, which will eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants. Holders may not tender their Notes without delivering consents or deliver consents without tendering their Notes. Holders who validly tender their notes by the Consent Date will receive the total consideration of $1,082.50 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (if such notes are accepted for purchase). Holders who validly tender their Notes after the Consent Date and prior to the Expiration Date will receive as payment for the Notes $1,062.50 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (if such notes are accepted for purchase). In either case, Holders who validly tender their Notes also will be paid accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the date of payment for the Notes (if such notes are accepted for purchase). In addition to the Offer, the Company intends to (i) consummate a private offering of a new series of senior subordinated notes, (ii) enter into new senior secured credit facilities, (iii) redeem its outstanding preferred stock and (iv) pay a dividend to holders of the Company's common stock (if approved by the Company's board of directors). We refer to these transactions, collectively, as the "Refinancing Transactions". The Offer is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the Company's receipt of tenders of Notes representing a majority of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding and the consummation of the Refinancing Transactions, and is expected to be financed by a combination of the new senior subordinated notes and borrowings under the new credit facilities. The Company currently plans to call for redemption, upon the closing of the new senior subordinated notes offering and the new credit facilities, in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the Notes, all Notes that remain outstanding. The terms of the Offer are described in the Company's Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated February 24, 2004, copies of which may be obtained from Georgeson Shareholder Communications.
