The Notes will be unsecured senior subordinated obligations of Genesis and, as such, will be subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future senior indebtedness.

The acquisition, which was announced on July 11, 1996, is expected to close in early October, 1996. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1993. Accordingly, the Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Because the Notes have been completely sold, this news release is made as a matter of record only.
