NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED BALANCE SHEETS

 

(1) Company Formation and Description of Business

 

Company Formation

 

Petro Holdings Financial Corporation (the “Company”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petro Stopping Centers Holdings, L.P. (the “Holding Partnership”) and was incorporated July 6, 1999 for the sole purpose of acting as a co-obligor with the Holding Partnership in the issuance of 82,707 units, each consisting of $1,000 principal amount at stated maturity of the Holding Partnership’s 15.0% senior discount notes due 2008 (the “Holding Partnership’s 15% Notes”) and 82,707 exchangeable Petro Warrant Holdings Corporation warrants (the “Warrants”).

 

On February 9, 2004, the Holding Partnership and the Company, as co-obligors, completed a series of transactions referred to as the 2004 Refinancing Transactions, in which the Holding Partnership refinanced substantially all of its existing indebtedness. The 2004 Refinancing Transactions consisted of the following components:

 

  Petro Stopping Centers, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) issued $225.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.0% senior secured notes due 2012 (the “9% Notes”);

 

  The repurchase of the majority of the Operating Partnership’s outstanding 10 1/2% senior notes due 2007 (the “10 1/2% Notes”);

 

  The Operating Partnership entering into new senior secured credit facilities of an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million, consisting of a three year revolving credit facility of $25.0 million and a four year term loan facility of $25.0 million;

 

  The repayment and retirement of the Operating Partnership’s retired senior secured credit facilities of approximately $40.8 million, plus accrued interest;

 

  The repurchase for cash of approximately 54.8% of the Holding Partnership’s 15% Notes and the exchange of approximately 42.2% of the Holding Partnership’s 15% Notes for the new senior third secured discount notes;

 

  The extension by the Holding Partnership of the mandatory purchase date of the Warrants from August 1, 2004 to October 1, 2009; and

 

  The reduction of the Operating Partnership’s trade credit balance with Exxon Mobil Corporation.

 

The 9% Notes and the new senior third secured discount notes are recorded on the financial statements of the Operating Partnership and the Holding Partnership, respectively.

 

On March 12, 2004, the Operating Partnership repurchased all of its remaining 10 1/2% Notes.

 

On July 19, 2004, the Operating Partnership and the guarantors of the 9% Notes completed the exchange of substantially all of the unregistered 9% Notes for 9% Notes that were registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, thereby satisfying their obligations to register the 9% Notes.

condensed balance sheets have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, certain financial information has been condensed and certain footnote disclosures have been omitted. Such information and disclosures are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

These unaudited condensed balance sheets should be read in conjunction with the Company’s balance sheets and notes thereto in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 of the Operating Partnership, filed with the SEC on June 10, 2004 (the “2003 Financial Statements”). Capitalized terms used in this report and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the 2003 Financial Statements. In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the condensed financial position of the Company at December 31, 2003 and September 30, 2004.

 

The Company meets the requirements of an Inactive Registrant as defined by Rule 3-11 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation S-X (the “Rule”).

The 2004 Refinancing Transactions consisted of the following components:

 

  Petro Stopping Centers, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) issued $225.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.0% senior secured notes due 2012 (the “9% Notes”);

  The Operating Partnership entering into new senior secured credit facilities of an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million, consisting of a three year revolving credit facility of $25.0 million and a four year term loan facility of $25.0 million;

 

  The repayment and retirement of the Operating Partnership’s retired senior secured credit facilities of approximately $40.8 million, plus accrued interest;

 

  The repurchase for cash of approximately 54.8% of the Holding Partnership’s 15.0% senior discount notes due 2008 (the “Holding Partnership’s 15% Notes”) and the exchange of approximately 42.2% of the Holding Partnership’s 15% Notes for new senior third secured discount notes;

 

  The extension by the Holding Partnership of the mandatory purchase date of the warrants, issued in July 1999 by Petro Warrant Holdings Corporation from August 1, 2004 to October 1, 2009; and

 

  The reduction of the Operating Partnership’s trade credit balance with Exxon Mobil Corporation.

 

The 9% Notes and the new senior third secured discount notes are recorded on the financial statements of the Operating Partnership and the Holding Partnership, respectively.

 

On March 12, 2004, the Operating Partnership repurchased all of its remaining 10 1/2% Notes.

 

On July 19, 2004, the Operating Partnership and the guarantors of the 9% Notes completed the exchange of substantially all of the unregistered 9% Notes for 9% Notes that were registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, thereby satisfying their obligations to register the 9% Notes.

 

We have no employees, only nominal assets, have not and will not conduct any operations and, accordingly, have no statement of operations or statement of cash flows. Our balance sheets are unaudited. In the opinion of our management, the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position at December 31, 2003 and September 30, 2004.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

None

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

As we have no employees, only minimal assets and conduct no operations, we have only rudimentary disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon an evaluation of these controls and procedures as of September 30, 2004, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded they are effective at a reasonable assurance level in light of our lack of operations.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15, during the quarterly period covered by this report, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
