<P style="margin:0pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:7.5pt">&nbsp;</P>
<P style="margin-top:4.15pt; margin-bottom:4.15pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On March 10, 2005, the Company used proceeds of $15 million borrowed under its unsecured revolving syndicated credit facility (the &#147;Facility&#148;) to fund a tax-deductible contribution to the Company&#146;s United States defined benefit pension plans. &nbsp;The contribution significantly improves the funded status of those pension plans, and is expected to reduce the amount of any additional minimum pension liability required to be reported by the Company. &nbsp;The contribution also lowered the Company&#146;s federal income tax liability for 2004 by approximately $4 million.</P>
<P style="margin-top:4.15pt; margin-bottom:4.15pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the terms of the Facility, the entire amount borrowed is to be repaid in February 2006, or, if certain conditions are met, in February 2007. &nbsp;The Company expects, however, that the repayment date will be extended, either through an amendment to the current Facility or the establishment of a new revolving credit facility. &nbsp;Alternatively, the borrowing may be refinanced through a private placement or other loan transaction.</P>
<P style="margin:0pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The borrowing will bear interest at a floating interest rate based upon the Eurodollar rate, plus an applicable margin, which margin is based upon the Company&#146;s debt-to-capital, or leverage ratio. &nbsp;Repayment will be subject to acceleration in the event of a default under the Facility. &nbsp;In addition to customary default provisions, failure to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants, consisting of a leverage ratio, and minimum invested capital and consolidated net worth requirements, constitute events of default under the Facility. &nbsp;The Company continues to be in full compliance with all of those covenants.</P>
