This presentation includes certain forward-looking statements, estimates and projections with respect to the Company’s anticipated future performance. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “estimate,” “target,” “project,” “potential,” “intend” or similar expressions. These statements include, among others, statements regarding the Company’s expected business outlook, anticipated financial and operating results, business strategy and means to implement the strategy, objectives, the likelihood of its success in building its business, financing plans, working capital needs and sources of liquidity. Forward-looking statements, estimates and projections are not guarantees of performance. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the Company’s management, which in turn are based on currently available information. These assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. Forward-looking statements, estimates and projections also involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, estimate or projection. Many of these risks and uncertainties are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict and the realization of any of them could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. A number of important factors could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements. For the Businesses, these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to the Businesses’ ability to remain competitive in their respective businesses; their ability to maintain their relationships with customers and suppliers; their ability to remain competitive with respect to both their services and prices; their ability to purchase raw materials on favorable terms; their ability to successfully expand their storage capacity; their ability to service their debt and to raise capital if necessary; the ability to retain management and key personnel, and others. For Shermen, factors include, but are not limited to: the successful combination of the Company with the Businesses, the ability to retain key personnel and the ability to achieve stockholder and regulatory approvals and to successfully close the transaction. Additional information on these and other factors that may cause actual results and Shermen’s performance to differ materially is included in Shermen’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including but not limited to the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 and subsequent Form 10-Q.

The Company does not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect any change in their expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstance on which any such statement is based, except as required by law.
