EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Berry Plastics Corporation (“Berry” or the Company) is filing this amendment to its Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2012 (this “Amendment” or “10-Q/A”) as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 14, 2012 (the “Original Filing”), to amend the following items:

 

·         The presentation of our Guarantor and Non-Guarantor of Financial Information.  The Company has notes outstanding which are fully, jointly, severally, and unconditionally guaranteed by substantially all of Berry’s domestic subsidiaries.  Separate narrative information or financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries have not been included because they are 100% owned by the parent company and the guarantor subsidiaries unconditionally guarantee such debt on a joint and several basis.  A guarantee of a guarantor of the securities will terminate upon the following customary circumstances:  the sale of the capital stock of such guarantor if such sale complies with the indenture, the designation of such guarantor as an unrestricted subsidiary, the defeasance or discharge of the indenture, as a result of the holders of certain other indebtedness foreclosing on a pledge of the shares of a guarantor subsidiary or if such guarantor no longer guarantees certain other indebtedness of the issuer.  The guarantees are also limited as necessary to prevent them from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law and guarantees guaranteeing subordinated debt are subordinated to certain other of the Company’s debts.  Our guarantor financial information includes all of our domestic operating subsidiaries and our non-guarantor subsidiaries include our foreign subsidiaries and BP Parallel, LLC, a domestic non-guarantor subsidiary that was established to repurchase debt obligations of the Company and Berry Plastics Group, Inc., the parent company of the Company.  The debt repurchases were all made in open market transactions with third parties.

 

The Company has revised its presentation for the Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Financial Information in this Amendment.  The Company uses the equity method to account for its investment in its subsidiaries.  The revised presentation separates the intercompany receivable balance that was previously included in our Parent Company – Investment in Subsidiary line item on the balance sheet.  The revised presentation also separates the intercompany payable from total equity.  There is no stated redemption date on these intercompany balances, so they are recorded as a current asset and a current liability in our balance sheet.  We have also revised the presentation of our statement of cash flows and reclassified the activity for our Parent Company from Operating Activities to Investing Activities and for our Guarantor and Non-Guarantor subsidiaries from Operating Activities to Investing and Financing Activities.  The principal elimination entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries, intercompany balances and repurchases of debt obligations of Berry Plastics Corporation by BP Parallel, LLC.

 

 

·         Based on the re-evaluation of the deficiencies disclosed in our Form 10-KA, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed was reported at the acceptable level of detail for the period covered by the Original Filing.

 

This Amendment amends the following sections of the Original Filing:

 

Item 1 -           Financial Statements

Item 4 -           Controls and Procedures

Item 6 -           Exhibits

 

In addition, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have provided new certifications in connection with this Amendment (Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1, and 32.2).

 

Except as described above, no other amendments have been made to the Original Filing.  This amendment does not reflect any events that have occurred subsequent to the date of the Original Filing and speaks only as of such date.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Form 10-Q/A includes "forward-looking statements," within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), with respect to our financial condition, results of operations and business and our expectations or beliefs concerning future events.  The forward-looking statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and prospects under the heading "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations".  You can identify certain forward-looking statements by our use of forward-looking terminology such as, but not limited to, "believes," "estimates," "intends," "plans," "likely," "will," "would," "could" and similar expressions that identify forward-looking statements.  All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.  Many risks and uncertainties are inherent in our industry and markets. Others are more specific to our operations.  The occurrence of the events described and the achievement of the expected results depend on many events, some or all of which are not predictable or within our control.  Actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q/A.  Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include:

 

·         risks associated with our substantial indebtedness and debt service;

·         changes in prices and availability of resin and other raw materials and our ability to pass on changes in raw material prices on a timely basis;

·         performance of our business and future operating results;

·         risks related to our acquisition strategy and integration of acquired businesses;

·         reliance on unpatented know-how and trade secrets;

·         increases in the cost of compliance with laws and regulations, including environmental laws and regulations;

·         risks related to disruptions in the overall economy and the financial markets may adversely impact our business;

·         catastrophic loss of one of our key manufacturing facilities;

·         risks of competition, including foreign competition, in our existing and future markets;

·         general business and economic conditions, particularly an economic downturn; and

·         the other factors discussed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 1, 2011 in the section titled “Risk Factors.”

 

Readers should carefully review the factors discussed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 1, 2011 in the section titled “Risk Factors” and other risk factors identified from time to time in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.  We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, future events or other changes.

 (In Millions of dollars, except as otherwise noted)

 

1.       Background and Nature of Operations

 

Berry Plastics Corporation (“Berry” or the “Company”) is one of the world’s leading manufacturers and marketers of plastic packaging products, plastic film products, specialty adhesives and coated products.  Berry is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Berry Plastics Group, Inc. (“Berry Group”) which is primarily owned by affiliates of Apollo Management, L.P. (“Apollo”) and Graham Partners.  Berry’s key principal products include containers, drink cups, bottles, closures and overcaps, tubes and prescription containers, trash bags, stretch films, engineered films, printed films and tapes which we sell into a diverse selection of attractive and stable end markets, including food and beverage, healthcare, personal care, quick service and family dining restaurants, custom and retail, agricultural, horticultural, institutional, industrial, construction, aerospace, and automotive. 

 

2.       Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of Berry have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act of 1934.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year.  The accompanying financial statements include the results of the Company and its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year ended October 1, 2011.  All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.  The Company issued financial statements by filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and has evaluated subsequent events up to the time of the filing.

 

Related Party Transactions and Allocations

The Company has recorded management fees of $3 and $2 for the quarterly period ended and $5 and $4 for the two quarterly periods ended March 31, 2012 and April 2, 2011, charged by Apollo and other investors to Berry Group and recorded income taxes to push down the respective amounts that relate to the consolidated operations of the Company.  Parent company investment, net in our Consolidated Balance Sheets includes the equity from Berry Group that was invested in Berry by Apollo and other shareholders.

 

BP Parallel LLC, a non-guarantor subsidiary of the Company, has invested $4 to purchase assignments of $5 of Berry Group’s senior unsecured term loan (“Senior Unsecured Term Loan”) for the two quarterly periods ended March 31, 2012.  As of March 31, 2012, BP Parallel LLC, had invested $195 to purchase assignments of $553 of Berry Group’s senior unsecured term loan.  The Company has the intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity.  The investment is stated at amortized cost and the discount is being accreted under the effective interest method to interest income until the maturity of the debt.  The Company has recorded their investment in Other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets with the fair value of the investments exceeding book value by $116 at March 31, 2012.  We record the non-cash interest income and the accretion income from the discount on the purchase of Senior Unsecured Term Loan in Interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.  The Company recognized interest and accretion income of $33 and $26 for the quarterly period ended and $64 and $48 for the two quarterly periods ended March 31, 2012 and April 2, 2011, respectively.  The net outstanding balance of the Senior Unsecured Term Loan was $53 at March 31, 2012.

 

Berry Group filed Form S-1 Registration Statement on March 23, 2012 with the SEC to sell shares of common stock in an initial public offering.

In September 2011, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of Rexam Closures Kentucky Inc., Rexam Delta Inc., Rexam Closures LLC, Rexam Closure Systems LLC, Rexam de Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V., Rexam Singapore PTE Ltd., Rexam Participacoes Ltda. and Rexam Plasticos do Brasil Ltda. (collectively, “Rexam SBC”) pursuant to an Equity Purchase Agreement by and among Rexam Inc., Rexam Closures and Containers Inc., Rexam Closure Systems Inc., Rexam Plastic Packaging Inc., Rexam Brazil Closure Inc., Rexam Beverage Can South America S.A. and the Company.  The aggregate purchase price was $351 ($340, net of cash acquired and working capital settlement during 2012).  Rexam SBC’s primary products include plastic closures, fitments and dispensing closure systems, and jars.  The newly added business is operated in the Company’s Rigid Closed Top reporting segment.  To finance the purchase, the Company used cash on hand and existing credit facilities.  The Rexam SBC acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities based on estimated fair values at the acquisition date.

The Company has not finalized the purchase price allocation and it is subject to change.  The Company is finalizing its allocation of the purchase price to deferred income taxes and working capital.  The Company has recognized goodwill on this transaction as a result of expected synergies.  A portion of the goodwill will not be deductible for tax purposes.  The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the net purchase price and the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition:

Pro forma net sales and pro forma net loss was $1,223 and $1 for the quarterly period ended and $2,370 and $68 for the two quarterly periods ended April 2, 2011, respectively.  The pro forma net sales and net loss assume that the Rexam SBC acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of the respective period.  The pro forma information presented above is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred had the Rexam SBC acquisition been consummated at the beginning of the respective period, nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results.  Further, the information reflects only pro forma adjustments for additional interest expense, amortization and closing expenses, net of the applicable income tax effects.

 

LINPAC Packaging Filmco, Inc.

In August 2011, the Company acquired 100% of the common stock of LINPAC Packaging Filmco, Inc. (“Filmco”) from LINPAC USA Holdings, Inc., a subsidiary of the UK-based LINPAC Group for a purchase price of $19.  Filmco is a manufacturer of PVC stretch film packaging for fresh meats, produce, freezer and specialty applications.  The newly added business is operated in the Company’s Engineered Materials reporting segment.  To finance the purchase, the Company used cash on hand and existing credit facilities.  The Filmco acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the preliminary purchase price has been allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities based on estimated fair values at the acquisition date.  The Company has not finalized the purchase price allocation and it is subject to change.  The Company is finalizing its allocation of the purchase price to deferred income taxes.  The Company has recognized goodwill on this transaction as a result of expected synergies.  A portion of the goodwill will not be deductible for tax purposes.

7. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

 

As part of the overall risk management, the Company uses derivative instruments to reduce exposure to changes in interest rates attributed to the Company’s floating-rate borrowings.  For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, the Company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation.  To the extent hedging relationships are found to be effective, as determined by FASB guidance, changes in fair value of the derivatives are offset by changes in the fair value of the related hedged item are recorded to Accumulated other comprehensive loss. Management believes hedge effectiveness is evaluated properly in preparation of the financial statements.

 

Cash Flow Hedging Strategy

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

 

In November 2010, the Company entered into two separate interest rate swap transactions to manage cash flow variability associated with $1 billion of the outstanding variable rate term loan debt (the “2010 Swaps”).  The first agreement had a notional amount of $500 and became effective in November 2010.  The agreement swaps three month variable LIBOR contracts for a fixed three year rate of 0.8925% and expires in November 2013.  The second agreement had a notional amount of $500 and became effective in December 2010.  The agreement swaps three month variable LIBOR contracts for a fixed three year rate of 1.0235% and expires in November 2013.  In August 2011, the Company began utilizing 1-month LIBOR contracts for the underlying senior secured credit facility.  The Company’s change in interest rate selection caused the Company to lose hedge accounting on both of the interest rate swaps.  The Company recorded subsequent changes in fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and will amortize the unrealized losses to Interest expense through the end of the respective swap agreements.

The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures section of the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification” or “ASC”) defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, and establishes a framework for measuring fair value.  This section also establishes a three-level hierarchy (Level 1, 2 or 3) for fair value measurements based upon the observability of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.  This section also requires the consideration of the counterparty’s or the Company’s nonperformance risk when assessing fair value. 

 

The Company’s interest rate swap fair values were determined using Level 2 inputs as other significant observable inputs were not available.

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, investments, long-term debt, interest rate swap agreements and capital lease obligations.  The fair value of the Company’s investments and long-term debt were determined using Level 2 inputs, which include using quoted prices in inactive markets or significant other observable inputs for identical or comparable assets or liabilities.  The fair value of our investments exceeded book value at March 31, 2012 and October 1, 2011, by $116 and $159, respectively.  The following table summarizes our long-term indebtedness for which the book value was in excess of the fair value:

Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company has certain assets that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis when impairment indicators are present.  The assets are adjusted to fair value only when the carrying values exceed the fair values.  The categorization of the framework used to price the assets is considered a Level 3, due to the subjective nature of the unobservable inputs used to determine the fair value.  These assets include primarily our definite lived and indefinite lived intangible assets, including Goodwill and our property plant and equipment.  For the quarterly period ended March 31, 2012, there were no adjustments to the fair value of our goodwill or other indefinite lived intangible assets as there were no indicators that would have required interim testing.

 

Included in the following table are the major categories of assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2012, along with the impairment loss recognized on the fair value measurement during the period:

Valuation of Property, Plant and Equipment and Definite Lived Intangible Assets

The Company periodically realigns their manufacturing operations which results in facilities being closed and shut down and equipment transferred to other facilities or equipment being scrapped.  The Company utilizes appraised values to corroborate the fair value of the facilities and has utilized a scrap value based on prior facility shut downs to estimate the fair value of the equipment, which has approximated the actual value that was received.  When impairment indicators exist, the Company will also perform an undiscounted cash flow analysis to determine the recoverability of the Company’s long lived assets.  The Company wrote-down their property, plant, and equipment with a carrying value of $1,216 to its fair value of $1,213, which resulted in an impairment charge of $3 for the two quarterly periods ended March 31, 2012.  The Company wrote-down their definite lived intangible assets with a carrying value of $831 to their fair value of $814, which resulted in an impairment charge of $17 for the two quarterly periods ended March 31, 2012.  These charges were due to their decision to exit certain operations that were immaterial to the Company’s consolidated operations.  The Company also wrote-down their property, plant, and equipment with a carrying value of $1,128 to its fair value of $1,112, which resulted in an impairment charge of $16 for the two quarterly periods ended April 2, 2011. 

 

8. Income Taxes

 

The effective tax rate from continuing operations was 40% and 34% for the two quarterly periods ended March 31, 2012 and April 2, 2011, respectively.  A reconciliation of income tax benefit, computed at the federal statutory rate, to income tax expense (benefit), as provided for in the financial statements, is as follows:

9. Operating Segments

 

Effective January 1, 2012 the Company reorganized its flexible films businesses, which included the Tapes, Bags and Coatings and Specialty Films divisions, into two new operating divisions; Flexible Packaging and Engineered Materials.  The Company’s operations are organized into four reporting segments: Rigid Open Top, Rigid Closed Top, Engineered Materials, and Flexible Packaging.  The prior year amounts have been restated for the new operating segments.  The Company has manufacturing and distribution centers in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Belgium, Australia, Brazil, Malaysia, Germany and India.  The United States operation represents 93% of the Company’s net sales and 94% of the long-lived assets.  The Canadian operations represent 2% of net sales and 2% of long-lived assets.   Mexican operations represent 1% of net sales and 2% of long-lived assets.  Belgium operations represent 2% of net sales.  All other jurisdictions represent less than 1% of net sales or long-lived assets.  Selected information by reportable segment is presented in the following table:

10.  Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

 

The Company has notes outstanding which are fully, jointly, severally, and unconditionally guaranteed by substantially all of Berry’s domestic subsidiaries.  Separate narrative information or financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries have not been included because they are 100% owned by the parent company and the guarantor subsidiaries unconditionally guarantee such debt on a joint and several basis.  A guarantee of a guarantor of the securities will terminate upon the following customary circumstances:  the sale of the capital stock of such guarantor if such sale complies with the indenture, the designation of such guarantor as an unrestricted subsidiary, the defeasance or discharge of the indenture, as a result of the holders of certain other indebtedness foreclosing on a pledge of the shares of a guarantor subsidiary or if such guarantor no longer guarantees certain other indebtedness of the issuer.  The guarantees are also limited as necessary to prevent them from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law and guarantees guaranteeing subordinated debt are subordinated to certain other of the Company’s debts.  Presented below is condensed consolidating financial information for the parent company, guarantor subsidiaries and non-guarantor subsidiaries.  Our guarantor financial information includes all of our domestic operating subsidiaries and our non-guarantor subsidiaries include our foreign subsidiaries and BP Parallel, LLC, a domestic non-guarantor subsidiary that was established to repurchase debt obligations of the Company and Berry Plastics Group, Inc., the parent company of Berry Plastics Corporation.  The debt repurchases were all made in open market transactions with third parties.

 

The Company has revised its presentation for the Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Financial Information from what was initially filed in our Form 10-Q on May 14, 2012.  The Company uses the equity method to account for its investment in its subsidiaries.  The revised presentation separates intercompany receivable balance that was previously included in our Parent Company – Investment in Subsidiary line item on the balance sheet.  The revised presentation also separates the intercompany payable from total equity.  There is no stated redemption date on these intercompany balances, so they are recorded as a current asset and a current liability in our balance sheet.  We have also revised the presentation of our statement of cash flows and reclassified the activity for our Parent Company from Operating Activities to Investing Activities and for our Guarantor and Non-Guarantor subsidiaries from Operating Activities to Investing and Financing Activities.  The principal elimination entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries, intercompany balances and repurchases of debt obligations of Berry Plastics Corporation by BP Parallel, LLC.

11.  Contingencies and Commitments

 

The Company is party to various legal proceedings involving routine claims which are incidental to the business.  Although the legal and financial liability with respect to such proceedings cannot be estimated with certainty, the Company believes that any ultimate liability would not be material to the business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

 

12.  Recent Financial Accounting Standards

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04: Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS’s (“ASU 2011-04”). ASU 2011-04 amends the fair value measurement and disclosure guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, to converge US GAAP and IFRS requirements for measuring amounts at fair value as well as disclosures about these requirements.  Many of the amendments clarify existing concepts and are generally not expected to result in significant changes to how many companies currently apply the fair value principles. In certain instances, however, the FASB changed a principle to achieve convergence, and while limited, these amendments have the potential to significantly change practice for some companies.  The adoption of this standard on January 1, 2012 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05: Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2011-05”). ASU 2011-05 amends current presentation guidance by eliminating the option for an entity to present the components of comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholder's equity and requires presentation of comprehensive income in a single continuous financial statement or in two separate but consecutive financial statements. The amendments in ASU 2011-05 do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2012 and has included the comprehensive income in a single continuous financial statement within its consolidated financial statements.

 

In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08: Testing for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2011-08”). ASU 2011-08 amends current goodwill impairment testing guidance by providing entities with an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. ASU 2011-08 will be effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.  The adoption of ASU 2011-08 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-12: Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 (“ASU 2011-12”). This ASU 2011-12 defers the ASU 2011-05 requirement that companies present reclassification adjustments for each component of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in both net income and other comprehensive income (OCI) on the face of the financial statements.  Companies are still required to present reclassifications out of AOCI on the face of the financial statements or disclose those amounts in the notes to the financial statements.  The ASU also defers the requirement to report reclassification adjustments in interim periods.  The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2012 and has included the comprehensive income in a single continuous financial statement within its consolidated financial statements.

 Item 4.            Controls and Procedures

 

(a)           Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Under applicable SEC regulations, management of a reporting company, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, must periodically evaluate the company’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” which are defined generally as controls and other procedures of a reporting company designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the reporting company in its periodic reports filed with the commission is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis.

 

Based on the evaluation of the aggregate deficiencies, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed was reported at the acceptable level of detail for the period covered by this report.  The following deficient disclosures were disclosed as part of our 10-K/A filing and were not remediated at the time of the original Form 10-Q filing:

 

·      Critical Accounting Policy and Estimates: Goodwill and Other Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets.  We did not provide readers with sufficient information explaining the factors that led to the recognition of the goodwill impairment charge, along with the future implications to our business.

·      Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.  We did not provide readers with sufficient informative narrative explanations of our financial statements.

·      Condensed Consolidating Financial Statement. We did not provide appropriate disclosure and presentation of certain intercompany activity in our condensed consolidating financial statements. 

 

 

Plans to remediate deficiency in disclosure controls and procedures.

 

In addition to our historical disclosure controls and procedures, the Company will begin a more comprehensive review and approval procedure of disclosures performed by our General Counsel, SEC Counsel, Corporate Controller and Chief Financial Officer.  This will include ensuring the level of information we disclose provides readers with a sufficient detail to understand these policies and estimates related to our critical accounting policies, the significant changes in our financial statements  within MD&A and ensuring intercompany activity is appropriately presented in the condensed consolidating financial statements..  We believe that these actions, when implemented, will remediate the deficiency in our disclosure controls and procedures.
