actions were filed in the Circuit Court of the Second Circuit, State of Hawaii entitled <I>Board of Water Supply of the County of Maui v. Shell Oil Co</I>., <I>et.al.</I> The suit named as defendants the Company, AMVAC, Shell Oil Company, The Dow
Chemical Company, Occidental Chemical Company, Occidental Petroleum Corporation, Occidental Chemical Corporation, and Brewer Environmental Industry, Inc. Maui Pineapple Company was joined as a cross-defendant. The Complaint alleged that between two
and four of the Board&#146;s wells had been contaminated with 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane (&#147;DBCP&#148;) in excess of the maximum contaminant level. On August 2, 1999, a global settlement was reached, which included the remediation of the
existing contaminated wells in addition to the installation of filtration devices on other wells for the next forty years on the island of Maui. The cash settlement was three million dollars of which AMVAC&#146;s (and the Company&#146;s) portion was
$500,000. [As to matters independent of indemnity issues, the Company recovered $400,000 from one of its insurers.] The settlement agreement obligates the defendants to pay for the ongoing operation and maintenance of the filtration devices for up
to forty years. The annual costs of operation and maintenance per well is estimated to be approximately $69,000, to be adjusted annually by the consumer price index. The defendants are also obligated to pay between ninety and one-hundred percent for
the cost of the installation of filtration devices on other wells that may exceed the defined maximum contaminant level in the next forty years. The number of future wells needing remediation could be less than six or more than that amount, however,
the maximum number of wells subject to remediation under the agreement is fifty. AMVAC&#146;s share of the ongoing operation and maintenance charges and installation of additional devices on other wells is seventeen and one-half percent. The
obligations of the defendants under this agreement are secured by a twenty million-dollar letter of credit obtained by Dow Chemical. AMVAC will pay seventeen and one-half percent of the annual cost of the letter of credit directly to Dow Chemical.
Thus far, no additional wells have been remediated nor has there been ongoing operation and maintenance charges. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

Chiquita Brands, Chiquita Brands International, Martrop Trading Corporation, and Del Monte Fresh Produce. The ten named Plaintiffs are citizens of four countries&#151;Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama, and Equador. Punitive damages are sought against
each defendant. The Plaintiffs were banana workers and allege that they were exposed to DBCP in applying the product in their native countries. The case was also filed as a class action on behalf of other workers so exposed in these four countries.
(The Plaintiffs&#146; attorneys (from South Carolina) have also represented foreign banana workers in the Texas and Mississippi matters discussed below.) For the last six years, the focus of the case has been on procedural issues. The defendants
moved to dismiss under the doctrine of <I>forum non conveniens</I>. Under this doctrine, the foreign Plaintiffs would have to sue in their own countries rather than using the United States courts. The Plaintiffs wish to keep the cases in the United
States and have them remanded to state court. The Plaintiffs also contend that the federal court does not have jurisdiction. In September 1998, the court granted defendants&#146; motion to dismiss based on the grounds of <I>forum non conveniens</I>.
A number of conditions were imposed including consent to jurisdiction in the four foreign countries for the ten named Plaintiffs, use of discovery taken in the United States, the requirement that the Plaintiffs file suits in their home countries by
December 9, 1998, and the agreement by defendants to pay any judgment, if any, that might be entered in the foreign countries. The court order also provided that the Plaintiffs could return to the United States if the foreign countries refused to
accept jurisdiction. The court then dismissed the case on March 8, 1999. The Plaintiffs subsequently appealed to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal. Oral arguments were heard in the Ninth Circuit on August 9, 2000. The Ninth Circuit issued its
decision on May 30, 2001, holding that the federal court did not have jurisdiction. A petition for writ of certiorari (a writ of a superior court to call up the records of an inferior court or quasi-judicial body) was filed in United States Supreme
Court on October 5, 2001 and the United States Supreme Court subsequently granted a hearing. Oral argument was held on January 22, 2003. On April 22, 2003, the United States Supreme Court issued its decision in favor of the Plaintiffs, holding there
was no jurisdiction in federal court. This vacates the order dismissing the case under the <I>forum non conveniens </I>doctrine. The Plaintiffs&#146; attorneys reported that the ten Plaintiffs filed suit in their home countries by December 9, 1998,
alleging in excess of two million United States dollars per Plaintiff. The suit in Guatemala was served on AMVAC in March 2001, but no defendant has been required to answer. Suits in the other countries have not been served. AMVAC has engaged local
attorneys in the countries to defend these foreign suits. No discovery has taken place on the individual claims of the Plaintiffs. It is too early to provide any evaluation of the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome at this time. Without such
discovery, it is unknown whether any of the Plaintiffs was exposed to AMVAC brand DBCP or what statute of limitation defense may apply. AMVAC intends to contest the cases vigorously. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

Standard Fruit Co., Standard Fruit and Steamship Co., Dole Food Co., Inc., Dole Fresh Fruit Co., Chiquita Brands, Inc., Chiquita Brands International, Inc. and Del Monte Fresh Produce, N.A. The cases were filed in the Circuit Court of Harrison
County, First Judicial District of Mississippi. Each case alleged damages sustained from injuries caused by Plaintiffs&#146;(who are former banana workers and citizens of a Central American country) exposure to DBCP while applying the product in
their native countries. These cases have been removed to U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, Southern Division. The federal court granted defense motions to dismiss in each case pursuant to the doctrine of <I>forum non
conveniens</I>. Unlike the Patrickson case, the court did not establish detailed procedures or deadlines for the filing of suits in the foreign countries by the five Plaintiffs. Defendants have learned that Plaintiff Valentin Valdez has filed a suit
in Panama, but it has not been served. On January 19, 2001, the court issued an unpublished decision, finding that there was jurisdiction in federal court, but remanded just one case (Espinola) back to the trial court to determine if a stipulation
which limited the Plaintiff&#146;s recovery to fifty thousand dollars was binding. If the stipulation is binding, that case will be remanded to state court. If the stipulation is not binding, that case will be dismissed along with the others,
requiring the Plaintiffs to litigate in their native countries. A deposition of the plaintiff Espinola was scheduled but was never taken. The federal court then ordered remand to state court. The attorneys for Dow Chemical Co. Filed a motion for
reconsideration, explaining that the Plaintiffs attorneys did not produce their client for deposition. This motion is still pending. No discovery has taken place on the individual claims of these Plaintiffs. If the Espinola case is tried in
Mississippi state court, the maximum recovery is fifty thousand dollars. Without discovery, it is unknown whether any of the Plaintiffs was exposed to the Company&#146;s product or what statute of limitation defense may apply. AMVAC intends to
contest the cases vigorously. It is too early to provide an evaluation of the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome at this time. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">the cases were removed to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. The Plaintiffs filed a
motion to remand the cases back to the state court in December 1999. In February 2000, the Plaintiffs&#146; attorneys withdrew their motion to remand the cases to state court without prejudice, stating that they would wait for an appellate court
determination on similar issues in the Mississippi and Texas cases. Dow Chemical Company, Shell Oil Company and Occidental Chemical Corporation contend that the vast majority of these Plaintiffs were included in the settlement of some fifteen
thousand Plaintiffs mentioned in the <I>Delgado</I> and <I>Carcamo</I> matters discussed below. In September 2002, the Plaintiffs&#146; attorneys finally evaluated their list of Plaintiffs who had settled previously. They agreed that the plaintiffs
who settle with Dow Chemical Company, Shell Oil Company, and Occidental Chemical Corporation were now only proceeding against the grower defendants. The plaintiffs who had not settle previously would continue with the suit against all defendants,
including AMVAC. Thus, out of the approximately three thousand nine-hundred Plaintiffs, about three hundred and fourteen are left. The Plaintiffs filed a consolidated third amended complaint in October 2002 with Soriano as the lead case. Each
Plaintiff seeks in excess of the minimum jurisdiction of federal court for diversity of citizenship cases (seventy-five thousand dollars). AMVAC has answered the third amended complaint. With the United States Supreme Court holding there was no
federal court jurisdiction in the <I>Patrickson</I> case, the federal court judge issued an order to the parties on April 23, 2003 as to why the cases should not be remanded to state court. The defendants argued that there was still federal court
jurisdiction because of diversity of citizenship, but this diversity did not exist at the time the suites ere originally filed in 1996 and accordingly, the court remanded the cases to state court on June 23, 2003. In state court, the three cases
were assigned to two different judges. The defendants considered filing another motion to dismiss based on <I>forum non conveniens</I>. In Louisiana, all defendants must join in making such a motion. By this time, unfavorable anti-<I>forum non
conveniens</I> laws had passed or were pending in several of the countries where the Plaintiffs resided. Several of the defendants were against consenting to jurisdiction in those countries, which is a condition required by an order of dismissal
under <I>forum non conveniens</I>. As a result, these cases will now be litigated in state court in Louisiana. The state court has not yet scheduled any case management or status conferences. It is likely that the three cases will be reconsolidated
in state court. As in the other banana worker&#146;s cases, no discovery has taken place on the individual claims of the Plaintiffs. Thus, it is unknown as to how many of the Plaintiffs claim exposure to AMVAC&#146;s product and whether their claims
are barred by applicable statutes of limitation. AMVAC intends to vigorously contest these cases. It is too early to provide any evaluation of the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome at this time. </FONT></P> <P

federal court. By order dated July 11, 1995, the United States District Court granted defendants&#146; motion to dismiss pursuant to the doctrine of <I>forum non conveniens</I>, requiring the Plaintiffs to sue in their native countries. The court
required the defendants to consent to jurisdiction in the foreign countries along with other conditions. As AMVAC had not been sued by the Plaintiffs directly, it refused to consent to jurisdiction in the foreign countries for these Plaintiffs. In
1995, Dow Chemical Company dismissed its third party complaint against AMVAC without prejudice. Subsequently, Dow Chemical Company and Shell Oil Company settled with these Plaintiffs as well as with about fifteen thousand other banana workers
represented by the Plaintiffs&#146; law firm. Dow Chemical Company was then dismissed by the Plaintiffs with prejudice in September 1997. Two intervenors (who are represented by the same attorneys as the Plaintiffs in the <I>Patrickson</I> and
<I>Mississippi</I> cases above) have filed a motion in opposition to this dismissal. The Plaintiffs appealed to the Fifth Circuit on the order of dismissal under <I>forum non conveniens</I>. In October 2000, the Fifth Circuit found federal court
jurisdiction and affirmed the dismissals based on <I>forum non conveniens</I>. The United States Supreme Court refused to accept a hearing at that time. The Plaintiffs want the court to hear this case if it decides to hear the Patrickson Case. While
AMVAC is not presently a party in this lawsuit having been dismissed without prejudice, the case is still pending, with the focus now shifted to the grower defendants. These remaining claims are apparently now being remanded to state courts in
Texas. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><U>E.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pending Matters in Hawaii</U>

Pine&#148;) and Hawaii Water Service Company (&#147;HWSC&#148;). HWSC is a non-municipally owned public water utility owning three water wells allegedly contaminated with 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane (&#147;DBCP&#148;) and 1,2,3-tri-chloropropane
(&#147;TCP&#148;). HWSC further alleges that the wells were contaminated by the above mentioned chemicals manufactured, marketed, distributed and/or sold by Maui Land &amp; Pineapple Company, Maui Pineapple Company (collectively, &#147;Maui
Pine&#148;), The Dow Chemical Company, Dow AgroSciences, LLC (collectively, &#147;Dow&#148;), Occidental Petroleum Corporation, Occidental Chemical Corporation (collectively, &#147;Occidental&#148;), Shell Oil Company, Shell Chemical Company

2003, all parties agreed to a tolling of the applicable statute of limitations in order to enter into mediation proceedings. Indirectly, the Company has been advised that the total claim could approximate three million dollars. The Company has made
no discovery of any facts regarding these water wells nor any facts leading to their alleged contamination. It is anticipated that all parties will meet with an independent mediator mid-January, 2004, to discuss this claim. Because of the vagueness
of the claim, the Company intends to contest its liability. It is too early to provide any evaluation of the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome at this time. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>
