In connection with the Exchange Offers, the Company, Holdings and TSN, as applicable, extended their solicitation (the “Solicitation,” and together with the Exchange Offers, the “Exchange Offers and Solicitation”) for (i) consents regarding certain proposed amendments to the certificate of designations of the Series B Preferred, (ii) consents regarding certain proposed amendments to the indenture of TSN’s 6.5% Notes (the “6.5% Notes Amendments”) and (iii) the approval of the Exchange Offers and Solicitation by holders of the 6.5% Notes (the “Noteholders’ Amendments”).   
 
The Exchange Offers and Solicitation, which were scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, have been extended until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Wednesday, January 6, 2010.  The Exchange Offers and Solicitation are being extended in order to provide additional time to satisfy various conditions to closing, including the condition requiring the requisite consent of the Company’s common stockholders to authorize additional shares of Company common stock and the effectiveness of the amendments to the certificates of designations of the Series B Preferred and the Series E Preferred, respectively.  According to Epiq Financial Balloting Group (the “Exchange and Information Agent”), as of December 10, 2009, approximately $22,492,279 aggregate principal amount of the 6.5% Notes have consented to the 6.5% Notes Amendments and the Noteholders’ Amendments and approximately 35,000 shares of Series B Preferred have been validly tendered and not withdrawn.  According to the Exchange and Information Agent, as of December 10, 2009, no shares of the Series A Preferred or the Series E Preferred have been validly tendered.
