Moulin also advised HAL that it is continuing to evaluate alternatives which could allow Moulin's proposal to proceed. There can be no assurance as to whether Moulin will obtain financing for its proposal, whether any agreement between Moulin and the Issuer will result, or the terms and conditions thereof. There continues to be no agreement, understanding or arrangement between HAL and Moulin relating to the proposed transaction. Except as described above in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals that relate to or that would result in any of the actions specified in Schedule 13D, Item 4, paragraph (a) through (j).
