We are offering to exchange up to $1,050,000,000 of our 9.50% senior secured notes due December 15, 2016, which will be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for up to $1,050,000,000 of our outstanding 9.50% senior secured notes due December 15, 2016, which we issued on December 21, 2009 and February 11, 2010.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following summary contains basic information about this offering contained elsewhere in this prospectus. It does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For a more complete understanding of the exchange offer before making an investment decision, we encourage you to read this entire prospectus carefully, including the “Risk Factors” section and the financial data and related notes. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, all references to “the Company”, “McJunkin Red Man”, “MRC”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, and all references to the “Issuer” are to McJunkin Red Man Corporation, exclusive of its subsidiaries.

Our Company

We are the largest global distributor of pipe, valves and fittings (“PVF”) and related products and services to the energy industry based on sales and hold the leading position in our industry across each of the upstream (exploration, production, and extraction of underground oil and natural gas), midstream (gathering and transmission of oil and natural gas, natural gas utilities, and the storage and distribution of oil and natural gas) and downstream (crude oil refining, petrochemical processing and general industrials) end markets. We currently serve our customers through over 400 global service locations, including over 180 branches, 6 distribution centers and over 190 pipe yards located in the most active oil and natural gas regions in North America and over 30 branch locations throughout Europe, Asia and Australasia.

McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation was incorporated in Delaware on November 20, 2006 and McJunkin Red Man Corporation was incorporated in West Virginia on March 21, 1922 and was reincorporated in Delaware on June 14, 2010. Our principal executive office is located at 2 Houston Center, 909 Fannin, Suite 3100, Houston, Texas 77010. We also have corporate offices located at 835 Hillcrest Drive, Charleston, West Virginia 25311 and 8023 East 63^rd Place, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74133. Our telephone number is(877) 294-7574. Our website address iswww.mrcpvf.com. Information contained on our website is expressly not incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

Our business is segregated into two operating segments, one consisting of our North American operations and one consisting of our international operations. These segments represent our business of providing PVF and related products and services to the energy and industrial sectors, across each of the upstream, midstream and downstream markets.

History

McJunkin Corporation (“McJunkin”) was founded in 1921 in Charleston, West Virginia and initially served the local oil and natural gas industry, focusing primarily on the downstream end market. In 1989, McJunkin broadened its upstream end market presence by merging its oil and natural gas division with Appalachian Pipe & Supply Co. to form McJunkin Appalachian Oilfield Supply Company (“McJunkin Appalachian”, which was a subsidiary of McJunkin Corporation, but has since been merged with and into McJunkin Red Man Corporation), which focused primarily on upstream oil and natural gas customers.

In April 2007, we acquired Midway-Tristate Corporation (“Midway”), a regional PVF oilfield distributor, primarily serving the upstream Appalachia and Rockies regions. This extended our leadership position in Appalachia/Marcellus shale region, while adding additional branches in the Rockies.

Red Man Pipe & Supply Co. (“Red Man”) was founded in 1976 in Tulsa, Oklahoma and began as a distributor to the upstream end market and subsequently expanded into the midstream and downstream end markets. In 2005, Red Man acquired an approximate 51% voting interest in Canadian oilfield distributor Midfield Supply ULC (“Midfield”), giving Red Man a significant presence in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin.

In October 2007, McJunkin and Red Man completed a business combination transaction to form the combined company, McJunkin Red Man Corporation. This transformational merger combined leadership positions in the upstream, midstream and downstream end markets, while creating a “one stop” PVF leader across all end markets

1

with full geographic coverage across North America. Red Man has since been merged with and into McJunkin Red Man Corporation.

On July 31, 2008, we acquired the remaining voting and equity interest in Midfield. Also, in October 2008, we acquired LaBarge Pipe & Steel Company (“LaBarge”). LaBarge is engaged in the sale and distribution of carbon steel pipe (predominately large diameter pipe) for use primarily in the North American midstream energy infrastructure market. The acquisition of LaBarge expanded our midstream end market leadership, while adding a new product line in large outside diameter pipe.

On October 30, 2009, we acquired Transmark Fcx Group B.V. (“Transmark”) and as part of the acquisition, we renamed Transmark as MRC Transmark Group B.V. (“MRC Transmark”). MRC Transmark is a leading distributor of valves and flow control products in Europe, Southeast Asia and Australasia. Transmark was formed from a series of acquisitions, the most significant being the acquisition of FCX European and Australasian distribution business in July 2005. The acquisition of Transmark provided geographic expansion internationally, additional downstream diversification and enhanced valve market leadership.

During 2010, we acquired The South Texas Supply Company, Inc. (“South Texas Supply”) and also certain operations and assets from Dresser Oil Tools, Inc. (“Dresser”). With these two acquisitions, we expanded our footprint in the Eagle Ford and Bakken shale regions, expanding our local presence in two of the emerging active shale basins in North America.

Summary of the Exchange Offer

On December 21, 2009 and February 11, 2010, respectively, we sold $1,000,000,000 and $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 9.50% senior secured notes due 2016, or the outstanding notes, in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. We are conducting this exchange offer to satisfy our obligations contained in the exchange and registration rights agreements that we entered into in connection with the sales of the outstanding notes. You should read the discussion under the headings “The Exchange Offer” and “Description of Exchange Notes” for further information regarding the exchange notes to be issued in the exchange offer.

Securities Offered	Up to $1,050,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.50% senior secured notes due 2016 registered under the Securities Act, or the exchange notes and, together with the outstanding notes, the notes.
	The terms of the exchange notes offered in the exchange offer are substantially identical to those of the outstanding notes, except that the transfer restrictions, registration rights and additional interest provisions relating to the outstanding notes do not apply to the exchange notes.
The Exchange Offer	We are offering exchange notes in exchange for a like principal amount of our outstanding notes. You may tender your outstanding notes for exchange notes by following the procedures described under the heading “The Exchange Offer.”
Tenders; Expiration Date; Withdrawal	The exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on          , 2011, unless we extend it. You may withdraw any outstanding notes that you tender for exchange at any time prior to the expiration of this exchange offer. See “The Exchange Offer — Terms of the Exchange Offer” for a more complete description of the tender and withdrawal period.
Condition to the Exchange Offer	The exchange offer is not subject to any conditions, other than that the exchange offer does not violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC.
	The exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum aggregate principal amount of outstanding notes being tendered in the exchange.
Procedures for Tendering Outstanding Notes	To participate in this exchange offer, you must properly complete and duly execute a letter of transmittal, which accompanies this prospectus, and transmit it, along with all other documents required by such letter of transmittal, to the exchange agent on or before the expiration date at the address provided on the cover page of the letter of transmittal.
	In the alternative, you can tender your outstanding notes by book-entry delivery following the procedures described in this prospectus, whereby you will agree to be bound by the letter of transmittal and we may enforce the letter of transmittal against you.
	If a holder of outstanding notes desires to tender such notes and the holder’s outstanding notes are not immediately available, or time will not permit the holder’s outstanding notes or other required documents to reach the exchange agent before the expiration date, or the procedure for book-entry transfer cannot be completed on a timely basis, a tender may be effected pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures described in this prospectus.

5

	See “The Exchange Offer — How to Tender Outstanding Notes for Exchange.”
United States Federal Tax Considerations	The exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer will not be a taxable event for United States federal income tax purposes. See “Certain Material United States Federal Tax Considerations”.
Use of Proceeds	We will not receive any cash proceeds from the exchange offer.
Exchange Agent	U.S. Bank National Association, the trustee under the indenture governing the notes, is serving as exchange agent in connection with the exchange offer. The address and telephone number of the exchange agent are set forth under the heading “The Exchange Offer — Exchange Agent.”
Consequences of Failure to Exchange Your Outstanding Notes	Outstanding notes not exchanged in the exchange offer will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer that are described in the legend on the outstanding notes. In general, you may offer or sell your outstanding notes only if they are registered under, or offered or sold under an exemption from, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. We do not currently intend to register the outstanding notes under the Securities Act. If your outstanding notes are not tendered and accepted in the exchange offer, it may become more difficult for you to sell or transfer your outstanding notes.
Resales of the Exchange Notes	Based on interpretations of the staff of the SEC, we believe that you may offer for sale, resell or otherwise transfer the exchange notes that we issue in the exchange offer without complying with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act if:
	• you are not a broker-dealer tendering notes acquired directly from us;
	• you acquire the exchange notes issued in the exchange offer in the ordinary course of your business;
	• you are not participating, do not intend to participate, and have no arrangement or undertaking with anyone to participate, in the distribution of the exchange notes issued to you in the exchange offer; and
	• you are not an “affiliate” of our company, as that term is defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act.
	If any of these conditions are not satisfied and you transfer any exchange notes issued to you in the exchange offer without delivering a proper prospectus or without qualifying for a registration exemption, you may incur liability under the Securities Act. We will not be responsible for, or indemnify you against, any liability you incur.
	Any broker-dealer that acquires exchange notes in the exchange offer for its own account in exchange for outstanding notes which it acquired through market-making or other trading activities must acknowledge that it will deliver this prospectus when it resells or transfers any exchange notes issued in the exchange offer. See “Plan of Distribution” for a description of the prospectus delivery obligations of broker-dealers.

Interest Payment Dates	Interest on the exchange notes will be payable in cash on June 15 and December 15 of each year.
Guarantees	The exchange notes are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by all of our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries (together with any other restricted subsidiaries that may guarantee the notes from time to time, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and by McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation. McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation does not have any material assets other than its ownership of 100% of the Issuer’s capital stock.
	Under the indenture relating to the exchange notes, any wholly-owned domestic subsidiary (other than immaterial subsidiaries) formed or acquired on or after the date of the indenture and any restricted subsidiary that provides a guarantee with respect to our revolving credit facility or any other indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor will also be required to guarantee the notes. See “Description of Exchange Notes — Certain Covenants — Guarantees.”
Collateral	The exchange notes and the guarantees by the Subsidiary Guarantors are secured on a senior basis (subject to permitted prior liens), together with any other Priority Lien Obligations (as such term is defined in “Description of Exchange Notes — Certain Definitions”), equally and ratably by security interests granted to the collateral trustee in all Notes Priority Collateral (as such term is defined in “Description of Exchange Notes — Certain Definitions”) from time to time owned by the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors. The guarantee of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation is not secured.
	The Notes Priority Collateral generally comprises substantially all of the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ tangible and intangible assets, other than specified excluded assets. The collateral trustee holds the senior liens on the Notes Priority Collateral in trust for the benefit of the holders of the exchange notes and the holders of any other Priority Lien Obligations. See “Description of Exchange Notes — Security — Collateral”.
	The exchange notes and the guarantees by the Subsidiary Guarantors are also secured on a junior basis (subject to the lien which secures our revolving credit facility and other permitted prior liens) together with the Existing Notes by security interests granted to the collateral trustee in all ABL Priority Collateral (as such term is defined in “Description of Exchange Notes — Certain Definitions”) from time to time owned by the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors.

7

	The ABL Priority Collateral generally comprises substantially all of the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ accounts receivable, inventory, general intangibles and other assets relating to the foregoing, deposit and securities accounts (other than the “Net Available Cash Account,” as such term is defined in the intercreditor agreement), and proceeds and products of the foregoing, other than specified excluded assets. See “Description of Exchange Notes — Security — Collateral”. The collateral trustee holds the junior liens on the ABL Priority Collateral in trust for the benefit of the holders of the exchange notes and the holders of any other Priority Lien Obligations.
	Assets owned by our non-guarantor subsidiaries and by McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation are not part of the collateral securing the exchange notes or our revolving credit facility. See “Description of Exchange Notes — Security” and “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Collateral and the Guarantees”.
Ranking	The exchange notes and the related guarantees are the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ senior secured obligations and McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation’s senior unsecured obligation. The indebtedness evidenced by the exchange notes and subsidiary guarantees ranks:
	• senior to any debt of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors to the extent of the collateral which secures the exchange notes and guarantees on a senior basis;
	• equal with all of the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ existing and future senior indebtedness (before giving effect to security interests);
	• senior to all of the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ existing and future subordinated indebtedness;
	• junior in priority to our revolving credit facility (to the extent of the collateral that secures our revolving credit facility) and to any other debt incurred after the issue date that has a priority security interest relative to the exchange notes in the collateral that secures the revolving credit facility;
	• equal in priority to any other indebtedness incurred before or after the issue date which is secured on an equal basis with the exchange notes and guarantees, including the outstanding notes; and
	• junior in priority to the existing and future claims of creditors and holders of preferred stock of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the exchange notes.
	As of December 31, 2010:
	• we and the Subsidiary Guarantors had $286 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility and outstanding letters of credit of approximately $5 million (with $360 million of available borrowings under our revolving credit facility), all of which would rank senior to the exchange notes to the extent of the collateral securing the revolving credit facility on a senior basis;

8

	• our non-guarantor subsidiaries had indebtedness of $46 million and borrowing availability of an additional $115 million, all of which would rank senior to the exchange notes;
	• we and the guarantors had $1.05 billion of outstanding notes outstanding plus certain outstanding interest rate swap agreements, all of which would rank pari passu with the exchange notes;
	• we and the guarantors had no subordinated indebtedness; and
	• our parent guarantor had no indebtedness other than its guarantee of the outstanding notes.
	See “Description of Exchange Notes — Brief Description of the Notes and the Note Guarantees”.
Intercreditor Agreement	The collateral trustee has entered into an intercreditor agreement with the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and The CIT Group/Business Credit Inc. and Bank of America, N.A., as co-collateral agents under our revolving credit facility, which governs the relationship of noteholders and the lenders under our revolving credit facility with respect to collateral and certain other matters. See “Description of Exchange Notes — The Intercreditor Agreement”.
Collateral Trust Agreement	The Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors have entered into a collateral trust agreement with the collateral trustee and the trustee under the indenture governing the notes. The collateral trust agreement sets forth the terms on which the collateral trustee will receive, hold, administer, maintain, enforce and distribute the proceeds of all liens upon the collateral which it holds in trust. See “Description of Exchange Notes — The Collateral Trust Agreement”.
Sharing of Liens and Collateral	The liens securing the exchange notes secure the outstanding notes on an equal and ratable basis with the exchange notes. The Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors may issue additional senior secured indebtedness under the indenture governing the notes. The liens securing the notes may also secure, together on an equal and ratable basis with the notes, other Priority Lien Debt (as such term is defined in “Description of Exchange Notes — Certain Definitions”) permitted to be incurred by the Issuer under the indenture governing the notes, including additional notes of the same class under the indenture governing the notes. The Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors may also grant additional liens on the collateral securing the notes on a junior basis to secure Subordinated Lien Debt (as such term is defined in “Description of Exchange Notes — Certain Definitions”) permitted to be incurred under the indenture governing the notes.
Optional Redemption	We may redeem the exchange notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after December 15, 2012 at the redemption prices set forth in this prospectus. In addition, at any time prior to December 15, 2012, we may redeem some or all of the exchange notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the exchange notes plus a make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, in each case, as described in this prospectus under “Description of Exchange Notes — Optional Redemption”.

9

	We may also, at any time prior to December 15, 2012, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes issued under the indenture governing the notes with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in this prospectus. See “Description of Exchange Notes — Optional Redemption”.
Offers to Purchase	If we sell certain assets without applying the proceeds in a specified manner, or experience certain change of control events, each holder of exchange notes may require us to purchase all or a portion of its notes at the purchase prices set forth in this prospectus, plus accrued and unpaid interest and special interest, if any, to the purchase date. See “Description of Exchange Notes — Repurchase at the Option of Holders”. Our revolving credit facility or other agreements may restrict us from repurchasing any of the exchange notes, including any purchase we may be required to make as a result of a change of control or certain asset sales. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Notes — We May Not Have the Ability to Raise the Funds Necessary to Finance the Change of Control Offer or the Asset Sale Offer Required by the Indenture Governing the Notes”.
Covenants	The indenture governing the exchange notes contains covenants that impose significant restrictions on our business. The restrictions that these covenants place on us and our restricted subsidiaries include limitations on our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to, among other things:
	• incur additional indebtedness;
	• issue certain preferred stock or disqualified capital stock;
	• create liens;
	• pay dividends or make other restricted payments;
	• make certain payments on debt that is subordinated or secured on a basis junior to the exchange notes;
	• make investments;
	• sell assets;
	• create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from restricted subsidiaries;
	• consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets;
	• enter into transactions with our affiliates; and
	• designate our subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.
	These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications, which are described under “Description of Exchange Notes”.
Original Issue Discount	The outstanding notes were issued with original issue discount for United States federal income tax purposes, and the exchange notes will be treated as issued with the same amount of original issue discount as the outstanding notes exchanged therefor. For United States federal income tax purposes, U.S. Holders will be required

10

to include the original issue discount in gross income (as ordinary income) as it accrues on a constant yield basis in advance of the receipt of the cash payment to which such income is attributable (regardless of whether such U.S. Holders use the cash or accrual method of tax accounting). See “Certain Material United States Federal Tax Considerations — Stated Interest and Original Issue Discount”.

No Assurance of Active Trading Market

The exchange notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or on any automated dealer quotation system. We cannot assure you that an active or liquid trading market for the exchange notes will exist or be maintained. If an active or liquid trading market for the exchange notes is not maintained, the market price and liquidity of the exchange notes may be adversely affected. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Notes — There is no Prior Public Market for the Exchange Notes. If an Actual Trading Market does Not Exist or is Not Maintained for the Exchange Notes, You May Not Be Able To Resell Them Quickly, for the Price That You Paid or at All.”

Risk Factors

Despite our competitive strengths discussed elsewhere in this prospectus, investing in our exchange notes involves substantial risk. In addition, our ability to execute our business strategy is subject to certain risks. The risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” immediately following this summary may cause us not to realize the full benefits of our strengths or may cause us to be unable to successfully execute all or part of our business strategy as well as impact our ability to service the exchange notes. You should carefully consider all the information in this prospectus, including matters set forth under the heading “Risk Factors”.

SUMMARY HISTORICAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL AND OTHER DATA

On January 31, 2007, McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation, an affiliate of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., acquired a majority of the equity of the entity now known as McJunkin Red Man Corporation (then known as McJunkin Corporation) (the “GS Acquisition”). In this prospectus, the term “Predecessor” refers to McJunkin Corporation and its subsidiaries prior to January 31, 2007 and the term “Successor” refers to the entity now known as McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries on and after January 31, 2007. As a result of the change in McJunkin Corporation’s basis of accounting in connection with the GS Acquisition, Predecessor’s financial statement data for the one month ended January 30, 2007 and earlier periods is not comparable to Successor’s financial data for the eleven months ended December 31, 2007 and subsequent periods.

McJunkin Corporation completed a business combination transaction with Red Man Pipe & Supply Co. (the “Red Man Transaction”) on October 31, 2007. At that time, McJunkin Corporation was renamed McJunkin Red Man Corporation. Operating results for the eleven-month period ended December 31, 2007 include the results of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation for the full period and the results of Red Man Pipe & Supply Co. (“Red Man”) for the two months after the business combination on October 31, 2007. Accordingly, our historical results for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 and the 11 months ended December 31, 2007 are not comparable to McJunkin’s historical results for the one month ended January 30, 2007 and the year ended December 31, 2006.

The summary consolidated financial information presented below under the captions Statement of Operations Data and Other Financial Data for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, and the summary consolidated financial information presented below under the caption Balance Sheet Data as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, have been derived from the consolidated financial statements of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation included elsewhere in this prospectus that have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm. The summary consolidated financial information presented below under the captions Statement of Operations Data and Other Financial Data for the one month ended January 30, 2007 and the eleven months ended December 31, 2007, and the summary consolidated financial information presented below under the caption Balance Sheet Data as of December 31, 2008, December 31, 2007 and January 30, 2007, have been derived from the consolidated financial statements of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation not included in this prospectus that have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm. The summary consolidated financial information presented below under the captions Statement of Operations Data and Other Financial Data for the year ended December 31, 2006, and the summary consolidated financial information presented below under the caption Balance Sheet Data as of December 31, 2006, has been derived from the consolidated financial statements of our predecessor, McJunkin Corporation, not included in this prospectus, that have been audited by Schneider Downs & Co., Inc., independent registered public accounting firm.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, amortization of intangibles and other non-recurring and non-cash charges (such as gains/losses on the early extinguishment of debt, changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, goodwill impairment and equity based compensation). Our revolving credit facility uses a measure substantially similar to Adjusted EBITDA. We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is an important factor in determining the interest rate and commitment fee we pay under our revolving credit facility. In addition, we believe it is a useful factor indicator of our operating performance. We believe this for the following reasons:

•  our management uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financial projections, as well as for determining a significant portion of the compensation of our executive officers;

•  Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items, such as interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization, that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their financing and accounting methods, the book value of their assets, their capital structures and the method by which their assets were acquired; and

•  securities analysts use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies.

Particularly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful indicator of our operating performance because Adjusted EBITDA measures our company’s operating performance without regard to certain non-recurring, non-cash and/or transaction-related expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA, however, does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operations, or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies because other companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner as we do. Although we use Adjusted EBITDA as a measure to assess the operating performance of our business, Adjusted EBITDA has significant limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes certain material costs. For example, it does not include interest expense, which has been a necessary element of our costs. Because we use capital assets, depreciation expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate revenue. In addition, the omission of the amortization expense associated with out intangible assets further limits the usefulness of this measure. Adjusted EBITDA also does not include the payment of certain taxes, which is also a necessary element of our operations. Furthermore, Adjusted EBITDA does not account for LIFO expense, and therefore, to the extent that recently purchased inventory accounts for a relatively large portion of our sales, Adjusted EBITDA may overstate our operating performance. Because Adjusted EBITDA does not account for certain expenses, its utility as a measure of our operating performance has material limitation. Because of these limitations, management does not view Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a primary performance measure and also uses other measures, such as net income and sales, to measure operating performance.

RISK FACTORS

Before investing in the securities offered hereby, you should carefully consider the following risk factors as well as the other information contained in this prospectus. The risks described below are not the only risks we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or which we currently consider immaterial also may adversely affect us and your investment. If any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

Risks Related to the Exchange Notes

Our Substantial Level of Indebtedness Could Adversely Affect Our Business, Financial Condition or Results of Operations and Prevent Us from Fulfilling Our Obligations Under the Exchange Notes.

We have substantial indebtedness. As of December 31, 2010, we had $1.36 billion of total indebtedness and our revolving credit facilities would permit additional borrowings of up to $475 million.

Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences to you, including the following:

•  it may be more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the exchange notes;

•  our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, debt service requirements, general corporate purposes or other purposes may be impaired;

•  we must use a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay interest and principal on the exchange notes and our other indebtedness, which will reduce the funds available to us for other purposes;

•  we may be subject to restrictive financial and operating covenants in the agreements governing our and our subsidiaries’ long term indebtedness;

•  we may be exposed to potential events of default (if not cured or waived) under financial and operating covenants contained in our or our subsidiaries’ debt instruments that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition;

•  we may be vulnerable to economic downturns and adverse industry conditions, including a downturn in pricing of the products we distribute;

•  our ability to capitalize on business opportunities and to react to pressures and changing market conditions in our industry and in our customers’ industries as compared to our competitors may be compromised due to our high level of indebtedness;

•  our ability to compete with other companies who are not as highly leveraged may be limited; and

•  our ability to refinance our indebtedness, including the exchange notes, may be limited.

We May Be Unable to Service Our Indebtedness, Including the Exchange Notes.

Our ability to make scheduled debt payments, to refinance our obligations with respect to our indebtedness and to fund capital and non-capital expenditures necessary to maintain the condition of our operating assets, properties and systems software, as well as to provide capacity for the growth of our business, depends on our financial and operating performance, which, in turn, is subject to prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, competitive, legal and other factors. Our business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and future borrowings may not be available to us under our credit facilities in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. We may seek to sell assets to fund our liquidity needs but may not be able to do so.

In addition, prior to the repayment of the exchange notes, we will be required to refinance our revolving credit facility. We can give no assurance that we will be able to refinance any of our debt, including our revolving credit facility, on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we were unable to make payments or refinance our debt or obtain new financing under these circumstances, we would have to consider other options, such as sales of assets, sales of equityand/or negotiations with our lenders to restructure the applicable debt. Our revolving credit facility

16

and the indenture governing the exchange notes may restrict, or market or business conditions may limit, our ability to avail ourselves of some or all of these options.

The borrowings under certain of our credit facilities bear interest at variable rates and other debt we incur could likewise be variable-rate debt. If market interest rates increase, variable-rate debt will create higher debt service requirements, which could adversely affect our cash flow. While we may enter into agreements limiting our exposure to higher interest rates, any such agreements may not offer complete protection from this risk.

Despite Our Current Indebtedness Level, We and Our Subsidiaries May Still Be Able to Incur Substantially More Debt, Which Could Exacerbate the Risks Associated with Our Substantial Indebtedness.

As of December 31, 2010, we had $311 million of secured indebtedness outstanding under our and our subsidiaries’ revolving credit facilities and up to $475 million would have been available for borrowing under our and our subsidiaries’ revolving credit facilities. The terms of the indenture governing the exchange notes and our revolving credit facility permit us to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, including secured indebtedness. If we incur any additional indebtedness that ranks equal to the exchange notes, the holders of that debt will be entitled to share ratably with the holders of the exchange notes in any proceeds distributed in connection with any insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other winding up of us. In particular, the terms of the indenture allow us to incur a substantial amount of incremental debt which ranks equal to the exchange notes and is secured by the same collateral as the exchange notes, including various amounts of debt permitted under the definition of “Permitted Liens” in the Description of Exchange Notes. See “Description of Exchange Notes — Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock.” If new debt is added to our or our subsidiaries’ current debt levels, the related risks that we now face could intensify.

Our Debt Instruments, Including the Indenture Governing the Exchange Notes and Our Revolving Credit Facility, Impose Significant Operating and Financial Restrictions on us. If We Default Under Any of These Debt Instruments, We May Not Be Able to Make Payments on the Exchange Notes.

The indenture and our revolving credit facility impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us. These restrictions limit our ability to, among other things:

•  incur additional indebtedness or guarantee obligations;

•  issue certain preferred stock or disqualified capital stock;

•  pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments;

•  make certain payments on debt that is subordinated or secured on a basis junior to the exchange notes;

•  make investments or acquisitions;

•  create liens or other encumbrances;

•  transfer or sell certain assets or merge or consolidate with another entity;

•  create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from restricted subsidiaries;

•  engage in transactions with affiliates; and

•  engage in certain business activities.

Any of these restrictions could limit our ability to plan for or react to market conditions and could otherwise restrict corporate activities. See “Description of Certain Indebtedness” and “Description of Exchange Notes”.

Our ability to comply with these covenants may be affected by events beyond our control, and an adverse development affecting our business could require us to seek waivers or amendments of covenants, alternative or additional sources of financing or reductions in expenditures. We can give no assurance that such waivers, amendments or alternative or additional financings could be obtained or, if obtained, would be on terms acceptable to us.

17

A breach of any of the covenants or restrictions contained in any of our existing or future financing agreements could result in a default or an event of default under those agreements. Such a default or event of default could allow the lenders under our financing agreements, if the agreements so provide, to discontinue lending, to accelerate the related debt as well as any other debt to which a cross-acceleration or cross-default provision applies, and to declare all borrowings outstanding thereunder to be due and payable. In addition, the lenders could terminate any commitments they had made to supply us with further funds. If the lenders require immediate repayments, we may not be able to repay them and also repay the exchange notes in full.

Your Right to Receive Payments on the Exchange Notes is Effectively Subordinated to the Rights of Lenders Under Our Revolving Credit Facility to the Extent of the Value of the Collateral Securing the Revolving Credit Facility on a Senior Lien Basis.

The exchange notes and the guarantees by our subsidiaries are secured by (1) a senior lien on substantially all of our and such guarantors’ tangible and intangible assets, other than the collateral securing our revolving credit facility and (2) a junior lien on our and such guarantors’ accounts receivable, inventory and related assets which secure our revolving credit facility on a senior lien basis, in each case subject to certain excluded assets and permitted liens. The lenders under our revolving credit facility and certain other permitted secured debt will have claims that are prior to the claims of holders of the exchange notes to the extent of the value of the assets securing that other indebtedness on a senior basis. In the event of any distribution or payment of our assets in any foreclosure, dissolution,winding-up, liquidation, reorganization or other bankruptcy proceeding, the lenders under our revolving credit facility will have a prior claim to those of our assets that constitute their collateral. After claims of the lenders under the revolving credit facility have been satisfied in full, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing the revolving credit facility on a senior lien basis, there may be no assets remaining under the revolving credit facility collateral that may be applied to satisfy the claims of holders of the exchange notes. As a result, holders of exchange notes may receive less, ratably, than the lenders under our revolving credit facility.

As of December 31, 2010, the notes and the related guarantees were effectively subordinated to $286 million of secured debt under our revolving credit facility to the extent of the collateral securing the revolving credit facility on a senior basis, and up to $360 million was available for borrowing as additional secured debt under our revolving credit facility. In addition, the indenture governing the notes allows us to increase the size of the revolving credit facility, or refinance or replace the revolving credit facility, and the notes and guarantees would be effectively subordinated to amounts borrowed under such increased, refinanced or replacement revolving credit facility. We expect that this subordination will continue until the notes are retired, repaid or otherwise redeemed.

Your Right to Receive Payment on the Exchange Notes Will Be Structurally Subordinated to the Liabilities of Our Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries.

Not all of our subsidiaries will be required to guarantee the exchange notes. For example, our foreign subsidiaries, certain immaterial subsidiaries and our subsidiaries (other than wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries) that do not guarantee the revolving credit facility or any other indebtedness of the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors will not guarantee the exchange notes. Creditors of our non-guarantor subsidiaries (including trade creditors) will generally be entitled to payment from the assets of those subsidiaries before those assets can be distributed to us. As a result, the exchange notes will be structurally subordinated to the prior payment of all of the debts (including trade payables) of our non-guarantor subsidiaries. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our non-guarantor subsidiaries, holders of their indebtedness and their trade creditors will generally be entitled to payment of their claims from the assets of those subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to us.

As of December 31, 2010, the notes and the related guarantees were effectively subordinated to $286 million of secured debt under our revolving credit facility to the extent of the collateral securing the revolving credit facility on a senior basis, and up to $360 million was available for borrowing as additional secured debt under our revolving credit facility. In addition, the indenture governing the notes allows us to increase the size of the revolving credit facility, or refinance or replace the revolving credit facility, and the notes and guarantees would be effectively subordinated to amounts borrowed under such increased, refinanced or replacement revolving credit facility. We expect that this subordination will continue until the notes are retired, repaid or otherwise redeemed.

18

We May Not Have the Ability to Raise the Funds Necessary to Finance the Change of Control Offer or the Asset Sale Offer Required by the Indenture Governing the Exchange Notes.

Upon the occurrence of a “change of control”, as defined in the indenture governing the exchange notes, we must offer to buy back the exchange notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of the repurchase. Similarly, we must offer to buy back the exchange notes (or repay other indebtedness in certain circumstances) at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the exchange notes (or other debt) purchased, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase, with the proceeds of certain asset sales (as defined in the indenture). Our failure to purchase, or give notice of purchase of, the exchange notes would be a default under the indenture governing the exchange notes, which would also trigger a cross default under our revolving credit facility. See “Description of Exchange Notes — Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Change of Control”.

If a change of control or asset sale occurs that would require us to repurchase the exchange notes, it is possible that we may not have sufficient liquidity or assets to make the required repurchase of exchange notes or to satisfy all obligations under our revolving credit facility and the indenture governing the exchange notes. A change of control would also trigger a default under our revolving credit facility. In order to satisfy our obligations, we could seek to refinance the indebtedness under our revolving credit facility and the indenture governing the exchange notes or obtain a waiver from the lenders or you as a holder of the exchange notes. We can give no assurance that we would be able to obtain a waiver or refinance our indebtedness on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Certain Restrictive Covenants in the Indenture Governing the Exchange Notes Will Be Suspended if Such Notes Achieve Investment Grade Ratings.

Most of the restrictive covenants in the indenture governing the exchange notes will not apply for so long as the exchange notes achieve investment grade ratings from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, and no default or event of default has occurred. If these restrictive covenants cease to apply, we may take actions, such as incurring additional debt, undergoing a change of control transaction or making certain dividends or distributions that would otherwise be prohibited under the indenture. Ratings are given by these rating agencies based upon analyses that include many subjective factors. We can give no assurance that the exchange notes will achieve investment grade ratings, nor that investment grade ratings, if granted, will reflect all of the factors that would be important to holders of the exchange notes.

Certain Affiliates of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. Own a Significant Majority of the Equity of Our Indirect Parent. Conflicts of Interest May Arise Because Affiliates of the Principal Stockholder of Our Indirect Parent Have Continuing Agreements and Business Relationships with Us.

Certain affiliates of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (the “Goldman Sachs Funds”), an affiliate of Goldman, Sachs & Co., are the majority owners of PVF Holdings LLC, our indirect parent company. The Goldman Sachs Funds will have the power, subject to certain exceptions, to direct our affairs and policies. A majority of the voting power of the Board of Directors of PVF Holdings LLC is held by directors who have been designated by the Goldman Sachs Funds. Through such representation on the Board of Directors of PVF Holdings LLC, the Goldman Sachs Funds will be able to substantially influence the appointment of management, the entering into of mergers and sales of substantially all assets and other extraordinary transactions. Furthermore, an affiliate of the Goldman Sachs Funds is a joint lead arranger for our revolving credit facility.

The interests of the Goldman Sachs Funds and their respective affiliates could conflict with your interests. For example, if we encounter financial difficulties or are unable to pay our debts as they mature, the interests of the Goldman Sachs Funds as an equity holder might conflict with your interests as an exchange note holder. The Goldman Sachs Funds may also have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures, financings or other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance their equity investments, although such transactions might involve risks to you as a holder of exchange notes. The Goldman Sachs Funds are in the business of making investments in companies and may directly, or through affiliates, from time to time, acquire and hold interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with us and they may either directly, or through affiliates, also maintain business relationships with companies that may directly compete with us. In general, the Goldman Sachs

19

Funds or their affiliates could pursue business interests or exercise their power as majority owners of PVF Holdings LLC in ways that are detrimental to you as a holder of exchange notes but beneficial to themselves or to other companies in which they invest or with whom they have a material relationship. Conflicts of interest could also arise with respect to business opportunities that could be advantageous to the Goldman Sachs Funds and they may pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us. Under the terms of our certificate of incorporation, the Goldman Sachs Funds have no obligation to offer us corporate opportunities. See “Principal Stockholders”, “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions”, and “Description of Exchange Notes”.

As a result of these relationships, the interests of the Goldman Sachs Funds may not coincide with your interests as holders of exchange notes. So long as the Goldman Sachs Funds continue to own a significant majority of our equity, the Goldman Sachs Funds will continue to be able to strongly influence or effectively control our decisions, including potential mergers or acquisitions, asset sales and other significant corporate transactions.

You May Have Difficulty Selling the Outstanding Notes Which You do Not Exchange.

If you do not exchange your outstanding notes for the exchange notes offered in this exchange offer, you will continue to be subject to the restrictions on the transfer and exchange of your outstanding notes. Those transfer restrictions are described in the indenture relating to the exchange notes and in the legend contained on the outstanding notes, and arose because we originally issued the outstanding notes under exemptions from, and in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

In general, you may offer or sell your outstanding notes only if they are registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, or if they are offered and sold under an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, those requirements. After completion of this exchange offer, we do not intend to register the outstanding notes under the Securities Act.

If a large number of outstanding notes are exchanged for notes issued in the exchange offer, it may be more difficult for you to sell your unexchanged outstanding notes. In addition, upon completion of the exchange offer, holders of any remaining outstanding notes will not be entitled to any further registration rights under the exchange and registration rights agreements, except under limited circumstances.

There is no Prior Public Market for the Exchange Notes. If an Actual Trading Market does Not Exist or is Not Maintained for the Exchange Notes, You May Not Be Able To Resell Them Quickly, for the Price That You Paid or at All.

We cannot assure you that an established trading market for the exchange notes will exist or be maintained. Although the exchange notes may be resold or otherwise transferred by the holders without compliance with the registration requirements under the Securities Act, they will constitute a new issue of securities with no established trading market.

We do not intend to apply for the notes or the exchange notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to arrange for quotation of the notes on any automated dealer quotation systems. The initial purchasers of the outstanding notes have advised us that they intend to make a market in the exchange notes, but they are not obligated to do so. Each initial purchaser may discontinue any market making in the exchange notes at any time, in its sole discretion. As a result, we cannot assure you as to the liquidity of any trading market for the notes or the exchange notes. Because Goldman, Sachs & Co. may be construed to be our affiliate, Goldman, Sachs & Co. may be required to deliver a current “market making” prospectus and otherwise comply with the registration requirements of the Securities Act in any secondary market sale of the exchange notes. Accordingly, the ability of Goldman, Sachs & Co. to make a market in the exchange notes may, in part, depend on our ability to maintain a current market making prospectus.

We also cannot assure you that you will be able to sell your exchange notes at a particular time or at all, or that the prices that you receive when you sell them will be favorable. If no active trading market exists or is maintained,

20

you may not be able to resell your exchange notes at their fair market value, or at all. The liquidity of, and trading market for, the exchange notes may also be adversely affected by, among other things:

•  prevailing interest rates;

•  our operating performance and financial condition;

•  the interest of securities dealers in making a market; and

•  the market for similar securities.

Historically, the market for non-investment grade debt has been subject to disruptions that have caused volatility in prices of securities similar to the exchange notes. It is possible that the market for the exchange notes will be subject to disruptions. Any disruptions may have a negative effect on holders of the exchange notes, regardless of our prospects and financial performance.

Assuming the Issuance of Outstanding Notes on February 11, 2010 Constituted a “Qualified Reopening” of our 9.50% Senior Secured Notes due December 15, 2016 for United States Federal Income Tax Purposes, the Exchange Notes Issued in Exchange for Those Outstanding Notes Will Be Treated As Issued with the Same Amount of Original Issue Discount as the Exchange Notes Issued in Exchange for the Outstanding Notes Issued on December 21, 2009 for United States Federal Income Tax Purposes.

We issued $1,000,000,000 and $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 9.50% senior secured notes due December 15, 2016 on December 21, 2009 and February 11, 2010, respectively.

The stated principal amount of the notes issued on December 21, 2009 (the “outstanding December notes”) exceeded the issue price of the outstanding December notes by an amount in excess of the statutory de minimis amount. Accordingly, the outstanding December notes were issued with original issue discount for United States federal income tax purposes.

We have taken the position that the issuance of outstanding notes on February 11, 2010 (the “outstanding February notes”) constituted a “qualified reopening” of our 9.50% senior secured notes due December 15, 2016 for United States federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, we have treated all of the outstanding February notes as having the same issue price as the outstanding December notes and therefore as having been issued with the same amount of original issue discount as the outstanding December notes for United States federal income tax purposes.

However, the application of the qualified reopening rules is not entirely clear, and it is possible that the outstanding February notes could be treated as a separate issue from the outstanding December notes, with an issue price determined by the first price at which a substantial amount of the outstanding February notes was sold (other than to bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers). In that event, the outstanding February notes would have been issued with original issue discount in an amount different from the amount of original issue discount on the outstanding December notes, the outstanding February notes would not have been fungible with the outstanding December notes for United States federal income tax purposes and the exchange notes received in exchange for the outstanding February notes would not be fungible with the exchange notes received in exchange for the outstanding December notes for United States federal income tax purposes. See “Certain Material United States Federal Tax Considerations — Qualified Reopening”.

For United States federal income tax purposes, U.S. Holders will be required to include the original issue discount in gross income (as ordinary income) as it accrues on a constant yield basis in advance of the receipt of the cash payment to which such income is attributable (regardless of whether such U.S. Holders use the cash or accrual method of tax accounting). See “Certain Material United States Federal Tax Considerations — Stated Interest and Original Issue Discount”. Additionally, in the event we enter into bankruptcy, you may not have a claim for all or a portion of any unamortized amount of the original issue discount on the exchange notes.

Risks Related to the Collateral and the Guarantees

The Value of the Collateral Securing the Exchange Notes May Not Be Sufficient to Satisfy Our Obligations Under the Exchange Notes.

No appraisal of the fair market value of the collateral securing the exchange notes has been made in connection with this offering and the value of the collateral will depend on market and economic conditions, the availability of buyers and other factors. We can give no assurance to you of the value of the collateral or that the net proceeds received upon a sale of the collateral would be sufficient to repay all, or would not be substantially less than, amounts due on the exchange notes following a foreclosure upon the collateral (and any payments in respect of prior liens) or a liquidation of our assets or the assets of the guarantors that may grant these security interests.

In the event of a liquidation or foreclosure, the value of the collateral securing the exchange notes is subject to fluctuations based on factors that include general economic conditions, the actual fair market value of the collateral at such time, the timing and the manner of the sale and the availability of buyers and similar factors. The value of the assets pledged as collateral for the exchange notes also could be impaired in the future as a result of our failure to implement our business strategy, competition or other future trends. In addition, courts could limit recoverability with respect to the collateral if they apply laws of a jurisdiction other than the State of New York to a proceeding and deem a portion of the interest claim usurious in violation of applicable public policy. By its nature, some or all of the collateral may be illiquid and may have no readily ascertainable market value. Likewise, we can give no assurance to you that the collateral will be saleable or, if saleable, that there will not be substantial delays in its liquidation. A portion of the collateral includes assets that may only be usable, and thus retain value, as part of our existing operating business. Accordingly, any such sale of the collateral separate from the sale of certain of our operating businesses may not be feasible or of significant value. To the extent that liens, rights and easements granted to third parties encumber assets located on property owned by us or the subsidiary guarantors or constitute senior, pari passu or subordinate liens on the collateral, those third parties have or may exercise rights and remedies with respect to the property subject to such encumbrances (including rights to require marshalling of assets) that could adversely affect the value of the collateral located at a particular site and the ability of the collateral trustee to realize or foreclose on the collateral at that site.

In addition, the asset sale covenant and the definition of asset sale in the indenture governing the exchange notes have a number of significant exceptions pursuant to which we will be able to sell Notes Priority Collateral (as such term is defined in the indenture governing the exchange notes) without being required to reinvest the proceeds of such sale into assets that will comprise Notes Priority Collateral or to make an offer to the holders of the exchange notes to repurchase the exchange notes.

The Intercreditor Agreement Limits the Ability of Holders of Exchange Notes to Exercise Rights and Remedies with Respect to the ABL Priority Collateral.

The rights of the holders of the exchange notes with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral (as such term is defined in the indenture governing the exchange notes) securing the exchange notes on a junior basis are substantially limited by the terms of the lien ranking and other provisions in the intercreditor agreement. Under the terms of the intercreditor agreement, at any time that any obligations that have the benefit of senior liens on the ABL Priority Collateral are outstanding, almost any action that may be taken in respect of the ABL Priority Collateral, including the rights to exercise remedies with respect to, release liens on, challenge the liens on or object to actions taken by the administrative agent under our revolving credit facility with respect to, the ABL Priority Collateral, will be at the direction of the holders of the obligations secured by the senior liens on the ABL Priority Collateral, and the collateral trustee, on behalf of noteholders with junior liens on the ABL Priority Collateral, will not have the ability to control or direct such actions, even if the rights of noteholders are adversely affected. The lenders under the revolving credit facility may cause the collateral agent for such facility to dispose of, release or foreclose on or take other actions with respect to, the ABL Priority Collateral with which holders of the exchange notes may disagree or that may be contrary to the interests of holders of the exchange notes.

In addition, the intercreditor agreement contains certain provisions benefiting holders of indebtedness under our revolving credit facility that prevent the collateral trustee from objecting to a number of important matters

22

regarding the ABL Priority Collateral following the filing of a bankruptcy. After such filing, the value of the ABL Priority Collateral could materially deteriorate and noteholders would be unable to raise an objection.

See “Description of Exchange Notes — The Intercreditor Agreement”.

The Rights of the Holders of Exchange Notes to the ABL Priority Collateral Are Subject to Any Exceptions, Defects, Encumbrances, Liens and Other Imperfections That Are Accepted by the Lenders Under Our Revolving Credit Facility and Rights of the Holders of the Exchange Notes to the Notes Priority Collateral Are Similarly Subject to Any Exceptions, Defects, Encumbrances, Liens and Other Imperfections Permitted by the Indenture.

The ABL Priority Collateral is subject to any and all exceptions, defects, encumbrances, liens and other imperfections as may be accepted by the lenders under our revolving credit facility and other creditors that have the benefit of first priority liens on the collateral from time to time, whether on or after the date the exchange notes and guarantees are issued. The indenture for the exchange notes and the related security documents also permit the collateral for the exchange notes to be subject to specified exceptions, defects, encumbrances, liens and other imperfections, generally referred to as “Permitted Liens”.

The existence of any such exceptions, defects, encumbrances, liens and other imperfections could adversely affect the value of the collateral securing the exchange notes as well as the ability of the collateral agent to realize or foreclose on such collateral. The initial purchasers of the outstanding notes did not analyze the effect of such exceptions, defects, encumbrances, liens and imperfections, and the existence thereof could adversely affect the value of the collateral securing the exchange notes as well as the ability of the collateral agent to realize or foreclose on such collateral.

The Collateral Securing the Exchange Notes May Be Diluted Under Certain Circumstances.

The loan agreement governing our revolving credit facility and the indenture governing the exchange notes will permit us to issue additional senior secured indebtedness, including additional notes, subject to our compliance with the restrictive covenants in the indenture governing the notes and the loan agreement governing our revolving credit facility at the time we issue such additional senior secured indebtedness.

Any additional notes issued under the indenture governing the exchange notes would be guaranteed by the same guarantors and would have the same security interests, with the same priority, as currently secure the notes. As a result, the collateral securing the exchange notes (and the outstanding notes) would be shared by any additional notes the Issuer may issue under the indenture, and an issuance of such additional notes would dilute the value of the collateral compared to the aggregate principal amount of notes issued.

In addition, the indenture and our other security documents permit us and certain of our subsidiaries to incur additional priority lien debt and subordinated lien debt up to respective maximum priority lien and subordinated lien debt threshold amounts by issuing additional debt securities under one or more new indentures or by borrowing additional amounts under new credit facilities. Any additional priority lien debt or subordinated lien debt secured by the collateral would dilute the value of the rights of the holders of exchange notes to the collateral.

The Rights of Holders of Exchange Notes in the Collateral May Be Adversely Affected by the Failure to Perfect Security Interests in the Collateral (or Record Mortgages) and Other Issues Generally Associated with the Realization of Security Interests in the Collateral.

Applicable law requires that a security interest in certain tangible and intangible assets can only be properly perfected and its priority retained through certain actions undertaken by the secured party. The senior liens in all Notes Priority Collateral from time to time owned by the Issuer or the guarantorsand/or the junior liens in all ABL Priority Collateral from time to time owned by the Issuer or the guarantors may not be perfected with respect to the exchange notes and the exchange note guarantees if the grantor of such liens (or, if applicable, the collateral trustee) has not taken the actions necessary to perfect any of those liens upon or prior to the issuance of the exchange notes. For example, the collateral trustee for the exchange notes will not have the benefit of control agreements to perfect its security interest in deposit accounts or securities accounts of the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors, except that

23

we have agreed to use our commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a specified deposit account at PNC Bank (or any replacement of such account) subject to an account control agreement. The inability or failure of any party to take all actions necessary to create properly perfected security interests in the collateral may result in the loss of the priority of the security interest for the benefit of the noteholders to which they would have been entitled as a result of such non-perfection.

In addition, applicable law requires that certain property and rights acquired after the grant of a general security interest can only be perfected at the time such property and rights are acquired and identified. The Issuer and the guarantors will have limited obligations to perfect the security interest of the holders of exchange notes in specified collateral. Moreover, if owned real property is acquired by us or our guarantor subsidiaries in the future, a lien to secure the exchange notes with such real property would only be created and perfected by a mortgage, deed of trust or similar instrument entered into after such acquisition. We can give no assurance to you that the collateral trustee for the exchange notes or the administrative agent under our revolving credit facility will monitor, or that the Issuer or the guarantors will inform such collateral trustee or administrative agent of, the future acquisition of property and rights that constitute collateral, and that the necessary action will be taken to properly perfect the security interest in such after-acquired collateral. The collateral trustee for the exchange notes has no obligation to monitor the acquisition of additional property or rights that constitute collateral or the perfection of any security interest and will have no responsibility for any resulting loss of the security interest in the collateral or the priority of the security interest in favor of the exchange notes and the exchange note guarantees against third parties.

The security interest of the collateral trustee will be subject to practical challenges generally associated with the realization of security interests in the collateral. For example, the collateral trustee may need to obtain the consent of a third party to obtain or enforce a security interest in an asset. We can give no assurance to you that the collateral trustee will be able to obtain any such consent or that the consents of any third parties will be given when required to facilitate a foreclosure on such assets. As a result, the collateral trustee may not have the ability to foreclose upon those assets and the value of the collateral may significantly decrease.

The Collateral for the Exchange Notes Will Not Include Certain “Excluded Assets”.

The collateral for the exchange notes will not include “Excluded Assets”. These Excluded Assets include, among other things, all of the shares or other securities issued by us or our subsidiaries. Accordingly, the collateral trustee for the exchange notes would not be able to foreclose on the shares or other securities issued by us or our subsidiaries as a remedy after an event of default. One parcel of real estate that we currently own, but is a non-core asset, with a net book value of approximately $1 million as of December 31, 2010, will not be collateral for the exchange notes. The guarantee of the exchange notes provided by McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation will be unsecured. See “Description of Exchange Notes — Certain Definitions — Excluded Assets”.

Because Each Guarantor’s Liability Under Its Guarantee May Be Reduced to Zero, Voided or Released Under Certain Circumstances, You May Not Receive any Payments from Some or All of the Guarantors.

The exchange notes have the benefit of the guarantees of the guarantors. However, the guarantees by the guarantors are limited to the maximum amount that the guarantors are permitted to guarantee under applicable law. As a result, a guarantor’s liability under its guarantee could be reduced to zero, depending upon the amount of other obligations of such guarantor. Furthermore, under the circumstances discussed more fully below, a court under federal or state fraudulent conveyance and transfer statutes could void the obligations under a guarantee or further subordinate it to all other obligations of the guarantor. In addition, the exchange notes will lose the benefit of a particular guarantee if it is released under certain circumstances described under “Description of Exchange Notes”.

Federal and State Laws Allow Courts, Under Specific Circumstances, to Void Guarantees and Grants of Security and Require Holders of the Exchange Notes to Return Payments Received from Guarantors.

The issuer’s creditors and the creditors of the guarantors could challenge the exchange note guarantees as fraudulent transfers or on other grounds. Under U.S. federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws, the delivery of any exchange note guarantee and the grant of security by the applicable guarantor could be found to be a fraudulent transfer and declared void, or subordinated to all indebtedness and other

24

liabilities of such guarantor, if a court determined that the applicable guarantor, at the time it incurred the indebtedness evidenced by its exchange note guarantee (1) delivered such exchange note guarantee with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud its existing or future creditors or (2) received less than reasonably equivalent value or did not receive fair consideration for the delivery of such exchange note guarantee and any one of the following three conditions apply:

•  the applicable guarantor was insolvent or was rendered insolvent as a result of such transaction;

•  the applicable guarantor was engaged in a business or transaction, or was about to engage in a business or transaction, for which its remaining assets constituted unreasonably small capital to carry on its business; or

•  the applicable guarantor intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debt beyond its ability to pay such debt as it matured.

A court likely would find that a guarantor did not receive equivalent value or fair consideration for its exchange note guarantee unless it benefited directly or indirectly from the issuance of the exchange notes. If a court declares the issuance of the exchange notes, any exchange note guarantee or the related security agreements to be void, or if any exchange note guarantee must be limited or voided in accordance with its terms, any claim holders may make against us or the guarantors for amounts payable on the exchange notes or, in the case of the security agreements, a claim with respect to the related collateral, would, with respect to amounts claimed against the applicable guarantor, be unenforceable to the extent of any such limitation or voidance. Sufficient funds to repay the exchange notes may not be available from other sources, including the remaining guarantors, if any. Moreover, the court could order holders to return any payments previously made by the applicable guarantor to a fund for the benefit of our creditors if such payment is made to an insider within a one year period prior to the a bankruptcy filing or within 90 days for any outside party and such payment would give the creditors more than such creditors would have received in a distribution under Title 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In addition, the loss of a guarantee (other than in accordance with the terms of the indenture) will constitute a default under the indenture, which default could cause all notes to become immediately due and payable. If the liens were voided, holders of the exchange notes would not have the benefits of being a secured creditor against the applicable guarantor.

The measures of insolvency for purposes of these fraudulent transfer laws will vary depending upon the law applied in any proceeding to determine whether a fraudulent transfer has occurred. Generally, however, a guarantor would be considered insolvent if:

•  the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the fair saleable value of all of its assets;

•  if the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts, including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and mature; or

•  it could not pay its debts as they become due.

On the basis of historical financial information, recent operating history and other factors, we believe that, after giving effect to the offering of the outstanding notes and the application of the proceeds therefrom, we were not insolvent, did not have unreasonably small capital for the business in which we are engaged and did not incur debts beyond our ability to pay such debts as they mature. However, we can give no assurance as to what standard a court would apply in making these determinations or, regardless of the standard, that a court would not limit or void any of the note guarantees.

In addition, although each guarantee will contain a provision intended to limit that guarantor’s liability to the maximum amount that it could incur without causing the incurrence of obligations under its guarantee to be a fraudulent transfer, this provision may not be effective to protect those guarantees from being voided under fraudulent transfer law, or may reduce that guarantor’s obligation to an amount that effectively makes its guarantee worthless.

In the event that any of the guarantees are voided, the exchange notes will become structurally subordinated to any debt, leases or any other liabilities at that guarantor.

25

Finally, as a court of equity, the bankruptcy court may subordinate the claims in respect of the exchange notes to other claims against us under the principle of equitable subordination, if the court determines that: (i) the holder of the exchange notes is engaged in some type of inequitable conduct; (ii) such inequitable conduct resulted in injury to our other creditors or conferred an unfair advantage upon the holder of the exchange notes; and (iii) equitable subordination is not inconsistent with the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

The Collateral Is Subject to Casualty Risks.

The indenture governing the exchange notes, the loan agreement governing our revolving credit facility and the security documents require the Issuer and the guarantors to maintain adequate insurance or otherwise insure against risks to the extent customary with companies in the same or similar business operating in the same or similar locations. There are, however, certain losses, including losses resulting from terrorist acts, which may be either uninsurable or not economically insurable, in whole or in part. As a result, we can give no assurance that the insurance proceeds will compensate us fully for our losses. If there is a total or partial loss of any of the collateral securing the exchange notes, we can give no assurance that any insurance proceeds received by us will be sufficient to satisfy all the secured obligations, including the exchange notes.

In the event of a total or partial loss to any of the mortgaged facilities, certain items of equipment and inventory may not be easily replaced. Accordingly, even though there may be insurance coverage, the extended period needed to manufacture replacement units or inventory could cause significant delays.

Any Future Note Guarantees or Additional Liens on Collateral Could Also Be Avoided by a Trustee in Bankruptcy.

The indenture governing the exchange notes provides that certain of our future subsidiaries will guarantee the exchange notes and secure their exchange note guarantees with liens on their assets. The indenture governing the exchange note also requires the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors to grant liens on certain assets that they acquire. Any future exchange note guarantee or additional lien in favor of the collateral trustee for the benefit of the holders of the exchange notes might be avoidable by the grantor (asdebtor-in-possession) or by its trustee in bankruptcy or other third parties if certain events or circumstances exist or occur. For instance, if the entity granting the future exchange note guarantee or additional lien were insolvent at the time of the grant and if such grant was made within 90 days before that entity commenced a bankruptcy proceeding (or one year before commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding if the creditor that benefited from the exchange note guarantee or lien is an “insider” under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code), and the granting of the future exchange note guarantee or additional lien enabled the holders to receive more than they would if the grantor were liquidated under chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, then such note guarantee or lien could be avoided as a preferential transfer.

The Value of the Collateral Securing the Exchange Notes May Not Be Sufficient to Secure Post-Petition Interest. Should the Issuer’s Obligations Under the Exchange Notes Equal or Exceed the Fair Market Value of the Collateral Securing the Exchange Notes, Holders of Exchange Notes may be Deemed to Have an Unsecured Claim.

In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding against the Issuer or the guarantors, holders of the exchange notes will be entitled to post-petition interest under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code only if the value of their security interest in the collateral is greater than their pre-bankruptcy claim. Exchange note holders may be deemed to have an unsecured claim if the Issuer’s obligations under the exchange notes equal or exceed the fair market value of the collateral securing the exchange notes. Exchange note holders that have a security interest in the collateral with a value equal to or less than their pre-bankruptcy claim will not be entitled to post-petition interest under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The bankruptcy trustee, thedebtor-in-possession or competing creditors could possibly assert that the fair market value of the collateral with respect to the exchange notes on the date of the bankruptcy filing was less than the then-current principal amount of the exchange notes. Upon a finding by a bankruptcy court that the exchange notes are under-collateralized, the claims in the bankruptcy proceeding with respect to the exchange notes would be bifurcated between a secured claim and an unsecured claim, and the unsecured claim would not be entitled to the benefits of security in the collateral. Other consequences of a finding of under-collateralization would be, among other things, a lack of entitlement on the part of exchange

26

note holders to receive post-petition interest and a lack of entitlement on the part of the unsecured portion of the exchange notes to receive other “adequate protection” under U.S. federal bankruptcy laws. In addition, if any payments of post-petition interest were made at the time of such a finding of under-collateralization, such payments could be re-characterized by the bankruptcy court as a reduction of the principal amount of the secured claim with respect to exchange notes. No appraisal of the fair market value of the collateral securing the exchange notes has been prepared in connection with this offering and, therefore, the value of the collateral trustee’s interest in the collateral may not equal or exceed the principal amount of the exchange notes. We can give no assurance that there will be sufficient collateral to satisfy our and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under the exchange notes.

U.S. Federal Bankruptcy Laws May Significantly Impair the Ability of Exchange Note Holders to Realize Value from the Collateral.

The right of the collateral trustee to repossess and dispose of the collateral securing the exchange notes upon the occurrence of an event of default under the indenture governing the exchange notes is likely to be significantly impaired by U.S. federal bankruptcy law if bankruptcy proceedings were to be commenced by or against the Issuer or any guarantor prior to or possibly even after the collateral trustee has repossessed and disposed of the collateral. Under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, a secured creditor is prohibited from repossessing its security from a debtor in a bankruptcy proceeding, or from disposing of security repossessed from such debtor, without the approval of the bankruptcy court. Moreover, the U.S. Bankruptcy Code permits the debtor to continue to retain and to use the collateral, and the proceeds, products, rents or profits of the collateral, even after the debtor is in default under the applicable debt instruments, provided that the secured creditor is given “adequate protection”. The meaning of the term “adequate protection” may vary according to circumstances, but it is intended in general to protect the value of the secured creditor’s interest in the collateral and may include cash payments or the granting of additional security, if and at such times as the court in its discretion determines, for any diminution in the value of the collateral as a result of the stay of repossession or disposition or any use of the collateral by the debtor during the pendency of the bankruptcy proceeding. Generally, adequate protection payments, in the form of interest or otherwise, are not required to be paid by a debtor to a secured creditor unless the bankruptcy court determines that the value of the secured creditor’s interest in the collateral is declining during the pendency of the bankruptcy case. In addition, the bankruptcy court may determine not to provide cash payments as adequate protection to the holders of the exchange notes if, among other possible reasons, the bankruptcy court determines that the fair market value of the collateral with respect to the exchange notes on the date of the bankruptcy filing was less than the then-current principal amount of the exchange notes. In view of the broad discretionary powers of a bankruptcy court, the imposition of the stay, and the lack of a precise definition of the term “adequate protection”, we cannot predict (1) how long payments on the exchange notes could be delayed following commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding, (2) whether or when the collateral trustee would repossess or dispose of the collateral or (3) whether or to what extent exchange note holders would be compensated for any delay in payment of loss of value of the collateral through the requirements of “adequate protection”. Furthermore, in the event the bankruptcy court determines that the value of the collateral is not sufficient to repay all amounts due on the exchange notes, holders would have “undersecured claims”. U.S. federal bankruptcy laws do not permit the payment or accrual of interest, costs and attorneys’ fees for “undersecured claims” during the debtor’s bankruptcy proceeding.

In the Event of a Bankruptcy Proceeding, Holders of the Exchange Notes may not be Entitled to Recover the Principal Amount of the Exchange Notes to the Extent of any Unamortized Original Issue Discount.

In the event of a bankruptcy proceeding, the bankruptcy court could decide that holders of the exchange notes are only entitled to recover the amortized portion of the original issue discount on the exchange notes. Accordingly, to the extent the original issue discount on the exchange notes has not been amortized, holders of the exchange notes may not be entitled to recover the full principal amount of the exchange notes.

Risks Related to Our Business

Decreased Capital and Other Expenditures in the Energy Industry, Which Can Result from Decreased Oil and Natural Gas Prices, Among Other Things, Can Materially and Adversely Affect Our Business, Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

A large portion of our revenue depends upon the level of capital and other expenditures in the oil and natural gas industry, including capital and other expenditures in connection with exploration, drilling, production, gathering, transportation, refining and processing operations. Demand for the products we distribute and services we provide is particularly sensitive to the level of exploration, development and production activity of, and the corresponding capital and other expenditures by, oil and natural gas companies. A material decline in oil or natural gas prices could depress levels of exploration, development and production activity, and therefore could lead to a decrease in our customers’ capital and other expenditures. If our customers’ expenditures decline, our business will suffer.

Prices for oil and natural gas are subject to large fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas, market uncertainty, and a variety of other factors that are beyond our control. Oil and natural gas prices during much of 2008 were at levels higher than historical long term averages, and worldwide oil and natural gas drilling and exploration activity during much of 2008 was also at very high levels. Oil and natural gas prices decreased during the second half of 2008 and during 2009. This sustained decline in oil and natural gas prices has resulted, and may continue to result, in decreased capital expenditures in the oil and natural gas industry, and has had an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. A further sustained decrease in capital expenditures in the oil and natural gas industry could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Many factors affect the supply of and demand for energy and therefore influence oil and natural gas prices, including:

•  the level of domestic and worldwide oil and natural gas production and inventories;

•  the level of drilling activity and the availability of attractive oil and natural gas field prospects, which may be affected by governmental actions, such as regulatory actions or legislation, or other restrictions on drilling, including those related to environmental concerns;

•  the discovery rate of new oil and natural gas reserves and the expected cost of developing new reserves;

•  the actual cost of finding and producing oil and natural gas;

•  depletion rates;

•  domestic and worldwide refinery overcapacity or undercapacity and utilization rates;

•  the availability of transportation infrastructure and refining capacity;

•  increases in the cost of the products that we provide to the oil and natural gas industry, which may result from increases in the cost of raw materials such as steel;

•  shifts in end-customer preferences toward fuel efficiency and the use of natural gas;

•  the economicand/or political attractiveness of alternative fuels, such as coal, hydrocarbon, wind, solar energy and biomass-based fuels;

•  increases in oil and natural gas pricesand/or historically high oil and natural gas prices, which could lower demand for oil and natural gas products;

•  worldwide economic activity including growth in countries that are not members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (“non-OECD countries”), including China and India;

•  interest rates and the cost of capital;

•  national government policies, including government policies which could nationalize or expropriate oil and natural gas exploration, production, refining or transportation assets;

28

•  the ability of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) to set and maintain production levels and prices for oil;

•  the impact of armed hostilities, or the threat or perception of armed hostilities;

•  pricing and other actions taken by competitors that impact the market;

•  environmental regulation;

•  technological advances;

•  global weather conditions and natural disasters;

•  an increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies; and

•  tax policies.

Oil and natural gas prices have been and are expected to remain volatile. This volatility has historically caused oil and natural gas companies to change their strategies and expenditure levels from year to year. We have experienced in the past, and we will likely experience in the future, significant fluctuations in operating results based on these changes. In particular, such volatility in the oil and natural gas markets could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our Business, Results of Operations and Financial Condition May Be Materially and Adversely Affected by General Economic Conditions.

Many aspects of our business, including demand for the products we distribute and the pricing and availability of supplies, are affected by U.S. and global general economic conditions. General economic conditions and predictions regarding future economic conditions also affect our forecasts, and a decrease in demand for the products we distribute or other adverse effects resulting from an economic downturn may cause us to fail to achieve our anticipated financial results. General economic factors beyond our control that affect our business and end markets include interest rates, recession, inflation, deflation, consumer credit availability, consumer debt levels, performance of housing markets, energy costs, tax rates and policy, unemployment rates, commencement or escalation of war or hostilities, the threat or possibility of war, terrorism or other global or national unrest, political or financial instability, and other matters that influence spending by our customers. Increasing volatility in financial markets may cause these factors to change with a greater degree of frequency or increase in magnitude. The global economic downturn has adversely affected our business, results of operations and financial condition, and continued adverse economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We May Be Unable to Compete Successfully with Other Companies in Our Industry.

We sell products and services in very competitive markets. In some cases, we compete with large oilfield services providers with substantial resources and smaller regional players that may increasingly be willing to provide similar products and services at lower prices. Our revenues and earnings could be adversely affected by competitive actions such as price reductions, improved delivery and other actions by competitors. Our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected to the extent that our competitors are successful in reducing our customers’ purchases of products and services from us. Competition could also cause us to lower our prices which could reduce our margins and profitability.

Demand for the Products We Distribute Could Decrease if the Manufacturers of Those Products Were to Sell a Substantial Amount of Goods Directly to End Users in the Markets We Serve.

Historically, users of PVF and related products have purchased certain amounts of such products through distributors and not directly from manufacturers. If customers were to purchase the products that we sell directly from manufacturers, or if manufacturers sought to increase their efforts to sell directly to end users, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. These or other

29

developments that remove us from, or limit our role in, the distribution chain, may harm our competitive position in the marketplace and reduce our sales and earnings.

We May Experience Unexpected Supply Shortages.

We distribute products from a wide variety of manufacturers and suppliers. Nevertheless, in the future we may have difficulty obtaining the products we need from suppliers and manufacturers as a result of unexpected demand or production difficulties. Also, products may not be available to us in quantities sufficient to meet our customer demand. Our inability to obtain sufficient products from suppliers and manufacturers, in sufficient quantities, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We May Experience Cost Increases From Suppliers, Which We May Be Unable to Pass on to Our Customers.

In the future, we may face supply cost increases due to, among other things, unexpected increases in demand for supplies, decreases in production of supplies or increases in the cost of raw materials or transportation. Our inability to pass supply price increases on to our customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. For example, we may be unable to pass increased supply costs on to our customers because significant amounts of our sales are derived from stocking program arrangements, contracts and MRO arrangements which provide our customers time limited price protection, which may obligate us to sell products at a set price for a specific period. In addition, if supply costs increase, our customers may elect to purchase smaller amounts of products or may purchase products from other distributors. While we may be able to work with our customers to reduce the effects of unforeseen price increases because of our relationships with them, we may not be able to reduce the effects of such cost increases. In addition, to the extent that competition leads to reduced purchases of products or services from us or a reduction of our prices, and such reductions occur concurrently with increases in the prices for selected commodities which we use in our operations, including steel, nickel and molybdenum, the adverse effects described above would likely be exacerbated and could result in a prolonged downturn in profitability.

We Do Not Have Contracts with Most of Our Suppliers. The Loss of a Significant Supplier Would Require Us to Rely More Heavily on Our Other Existing Suppliers or to Develop Relationships with New Suppliers, and Such a Loss May Have a Material Adverse Effect on Our Business, Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

Given the nature of our business, and consistent with industry practice, we do not have contracts with most of our suppliers. Purchases are generally made through purchase orders. Therefore, most of our suppliers have the ability to terminate their relationships with us at any time. Approximately 39% of our total purchases during the year ended December 31, 2010 were from our ten largest suppliers. Although we believe there are numerous manufacturers with the capacity to supply the products we distribute, the loss of one or more of our major suppliers could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Such a loss would require us to rely more heavily on our other existing suppliers or develop relationships with new suppliers, which may cause us to pay higher prices for products due to, among other things, a loss of volume discount benefits currently obtained from our major suppliers.

Price Reductions by Suppliers of Products Sold by Us Could Cause the Value of Our Inventory to Decline. Also, Such Price Reductions Could Cause Our Customers to Demand Lower Sales Prices for These Products, Possibly Decreasing Our Margins and Profitability on Sales to the Extent that Our Inventory of Such Products Was Purchased at the Higher Prices Prior to Supplier Price Reductions and We Are Required to Sell Such Products to Our Customers at the Lower Market Prices.

The value of our inventory could decline as a result of price reductions by manufacturers of products sold by us. We have been selling the same types of products to our customers for many years (and therefore do not expect that our inventory will become obsolete). However, there is no assurance that a substantial decline in product prices would not result in a write-down of our inventory value. Such a write-down could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

30

Also, decreases in the market prices of products sold by us could cause customers to demand lower sale prices from us. These price reductions could reduce our margins and profitability on sales with respect to such lower-priced products. Reductions in our margins and profitability on sales could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

A Substantial Decrease in the Price of Steel Could Significantly Lower Our Gross Profit or Cash Flow.

We distribute many products manufactured from steel and, as a result, our business is significantly affected by the price and supply of steel. When steel prices are lower, the prices that we charge customers for products may decline, which affects our gross profit and cash flow. The steel industry as a whole is cyclical and at times pricing and availability of steel can be volatile due to numerous factors beyond our control, including general domestic and international economic conditions, labor costs, sales levels, competition, consolidation of steel producers, fluctuations in the costs of raw materials necessary to produce steel, import duties and tariffs and currency exchange rates. When steel prices decline, customer demands for lower prices and our competitors’ responses to those demands could result in lower sale prices and, consequently, lower gross profit or cash flow.

If Steel Prices Rise, We May Be Unable to Pass Along the Cost Increases to Our Customers.

We maintain inventories of steel products to accommodate the lead time requirements of our customers. Accordingly, we purchase steel products in an effort to maintain our inventory at levels that we believe to be appropriate to satisfy the anticipated needs of our customers based upon historic buying practices, contracts with customers and market conditions. Our commitments to purchase steel products are generally at prevailing market prices in effect at the time we place our orders. If steel prices increase between the time we order steel products and the time of delivery of such products to us, our suppliers may impose surcharges that require us to pay for increases in steel prices during such period. Demand for the products we distribute, the actions of our competitors, and other factors will influence whether we will be able to pass such steel cost increases and surcharges on to our customers, and we may be unsuccessful in doing so.

We Do Not Have Long-Term Contracts or Agreements with Many of Our Customers and the Contracts and Agreements That We Do Have Generally Do Not Commit Our Customers to Any Minimum Purchase Volume. The Loss of a Significant Customer May Have a Material Adverse Effect on Our Business, Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

Given the nature of our business, and consistent with industry practice, we do not have long-term contracts with many of our customers and our contracts, including our MRO contracts, generally do not commit our customers to any minimum purchase volume. Therefore, a significant number of our customers may terminate their relationships with us or reduce their purchasing volume at any time, and even our MRO customers are not required to purchase products from us. Furthermore, the long-term customer contracts that we do have are generally terminable without cause on short notice. Our ten largest customers represented approximately half of our sales for the year ended December 31, 2010. The products that we may sell to any particular customer depend in large part on the size of that customer’s capital expenditure budget in a particular year and on the results of competitive bids for major projects. Consequently, a customer that accounts for a significant portion of our sales in one fiscal year may represent an immaterial portion of our sales in subsequent fiscal years. The loss of a significant customer, or a substantial decrease in a significant customer’s orders, may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Changes in Our Customer and Product Mix Could Cause Our Gross Margin Percentage to Fluctuate.

From time to time, we may experience changes in our customer mix and in our product mix. Changes in our customer mix may result from geographic expansion, daily selling activities within current geographic markets and targeted selling activities to new customer segments. Changes in our product mix may result from marketing activities to existing customers and needs communicated to us from existing and prospective customers. If customers begin to require more lower-margin products from us and fewer higher-margin products, our business, results of operations and financial condition may suffer.

31

We Face Risks Associated with Our Acquisition of Transmark Fcx Group B.V. in October 2009, and This Acquisition May Not Yield All of Its Intended Benefits.

We are currently continuing the process of integrating the business operated by Transmark Fcx Group B.V., now known as MRC Transmark Group B.V. (“MRC Transmark”) with our business. If we cannot successfully integrate this business, we may not achieve the expected synergies and benefits we hope to obtain from the acquisition. The difficulty of combining the companies presents challenges to our management, including:

•  operating a significantly larger combined company with operations in more geographic areas and with more business lines;

•  integrating personnel with diverse backgrounds and organizational cultures;

•  coordinating sales and marketing functions;

•  retaining key employees, customers or suppliers;

•  integrating the information systems;

•  preserving the collaboration, distribution, marketing, promotion and other important relationships; and

•  consolidating other corporate and administrative functions.

If the risks associated with this acquisition materialize and we are unable to sufficiently address them, there is a possibility that the results of operations of our combined company could be less successful than the separate results of operations of our company and Transmark, taken together, if this acquisition had never occurred.

We May Be Unable to Successfully Execute or Effectively Integrate Acquisitions.

One of our key operating strategies is to selectively pursue acquisitions, including large scale acquisitions, in order to continue to grow and increase profitability. However, acquisitions, particularly of a significant scale, involve numerous risks and uncertainties, including intense competition for suitable acquisition targets; the potential unavailability of financial resources necessary to consummate acquisitions in the future; increased leverage due to additional debt financing that may be required to complete an acquisition; dilution of our stockholders’ net current book value per share if we issue additional equity securities to finance an acquisition; difficulties in identifying suitable acquisition targets or in completing any transactions identified on sufficiently favorable terms; assumption of undisclosed or unknown liabilities; and the need to obtain regulatory or other governmental approvals that may be necessary to complete acquisitions. In addition, any future acquisitions may entail significant transaction costs and risks associated with entry into new markets. For example, we incurred $17.4 million in fees and expenses during 2009 related to our acquisition of Transmark.

In addition, even when acquisitions are completed, integration of acquired entities can involve significant difficulties, such as:

•  failure to achieve cost savings or other financial or operating objectives with respect to an acquisition;

•  strain on the operational and managerial controls and procedures of our business, and the need to modify systems or to add management resources;

•  difficulties in the integration and retention of customers or personnel and the integration and effective deployment of operations or technologies;

•  amortization of acquired assets, which would reduce future reported earnings;

•  possible adverse short-term effects on our cash flows or operating results;

•  diversion of management’s attention from the ongoing operations of our business;

•  failure to obtain and retain key personnel of an acquired business; and

•  assumption of known or unknown material liabilities or regulatory non-compliance issues.

32

Failure to manage these acquisition growth risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Changes in Our Credit Profile may Affect Our Relationship with Our Suppliers, Which Could Have a Material Adverse Effect on Our Liquidity.

Changes in our credit profile may affect the way our suppliers view our ability to make payments and may induce them to shorten the payment terms of their invoices, particularly given our high level of outstanding indebtedness. Given the large dollar amounts and volume of our purchases from suppliers, a change in payment terms may have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and our ability to make payments to our suppliers, and consequently may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our Business, Results of Operations and Financial Condition Could Be Materially and Adversely Affected if Restrictions on Imports of Line Pipe, Oil Country Tubular Goods or Certain of the Other Products that We Sell Are Lifted.

U.S. law currently imposes tariffs and duties on imports from certain foreign countries of line pipe and oil country tubular goods, and, to a lesser extent, on imports of certain other products that we sell. If these restrictions are lifted, if the tariffs are reduced or if the level of such imported products otherwise increases, and these imported products are accepted by our customer base, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected to the extent that we would then have higher-cost products in our inventory or if prices and margins are driven down by increased supplies of such products. If prices of these products were to decrease significantly, we might not be able to profitably sell these products and the value of our inventory would decline. In addition, significant price decreases could result in a significantly longer holding period for some of our inventory, which could also have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We Are Subject to Strict Environmental, Health and Safety Laws and Regulations that May Lead to Significant Liabilities and Negatively Impact the Demand for Our Products.

We are subject to a variety of federal, state, local, foreign and provincial environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, including those governing the discharge of pollutants into the air or water, the management, storage and disposal of, or exposure to, hazardous substances and wastes, the responsibility to investigate and clean up contamination, and occupational health and safety. Fines and penalties may be imposed for non-compliance with applicable environmental, health and safety requirements and the failure to have or to comply with the terms and conditions of required permits. Historically, the costs to comply with environmental and health and safety requirements have not been material. However, the failure by us to comply with applicable environmental, health and safety requirements could result in fines, penalties, enforcement actions, third party claims for property damage and personal injury, requirements to clean up property or to pay for the costs of cleanup, or regulatory or judicial orders requiring corrective measures, including the installation of pollution control equipment or remedial actions.

Under certain laws and regulations, such as the U.S. federal Superfund law or its foreign equivalent, the obligation to investigate and remediate contamination at a facility may be imposed on current and former owners or operators or on persons who may have sent waste to that facility for disposal. Liability under these laws and regulations may be imposed without regard to fault or to the legality of the activities giving rise to the contamination. Although we are not aware of any active litigation against us under the U.S. federal Superfund law or its state or foreign equivalents, contamination has been identified at several of our current and former facilities, and we have incurred and will continue to incur costs to investigate and remediate these conditions.

Moreover, we may incur liabilities in connection with environmental conditions currently unknown to us relating to our existing, prior or future sites or operations or those of predecessor companies whose liabilities we may have assumed or acquired. We believe that indemnities contained in certain of our acquisition agreements may cover certain environmental conditions existing at the time of the acquisition, subject to certain terms, limitations and conditions. However, if these indemnification provisions terminate or if the indemnifying parties do not fulfill

33

their indemnification obligations, we may be subject to liability with respect to the environmental matters that may be covered by such indemnification obligations.

In addition, environmental, health and safety laws and regulations applicable to our business and the business of our customers, including laws regulating the energy industry, and the interpretation or enforcement of these laws and regulations, are constantly evolving and it is impossible to predict accurately the effect that changes in these laws and regulations, or their interpretation or enforcement, may have upon our business, financial condition or results of operations. Should environmental laws and regulations, or their interpretation or enforcement, become more stringent, our costs could increase, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In particular, legislation and regulations limiting emissions of greenhouse gases (“GHGs”), including carbon dioxide associated with the burning of fossil fuels, are at various stages of consideration and implementation, at the international, national, regional and state levels. In 2005, the Kyoto Protocol to the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which established a binding set of emission targets for GHGs, became binding on the countries that ratified it. Certain states have adopted or are considering legislation or regulation imposing overall caps on GHG emissions from certain facility categories or mandating the increased use of electricity from renewable energy sources. Similar legislation has been proposed at the federal level. In addition, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) has begun to implement regulations that would require permits for and reductions in greenhouse gas emissions for certain categories of facilities, the first of which became effective in January 2010. The EPA also intends to set GHG emissions standards for power plants in May 2012 and for refineries in November 2012. These laws and regulations could negatively impact the market for the products we distribute and, consequently, our business.

In addition, the federal government and certain state governments are considering enhancing the regulation of hydraulic fracturing, a practice involving the injection of certain substances into rock formations to stimulate production of hydrocarbons, particularly natural gas, from shale basin regions. Any increased federal or state regulation of hydraulic fracturing could reduce the demand for our products in these regions.

We May Not Have Adequate Insurance for Potential Liabilities, Including Liabilities Arising from Litigation.

In the ordinary course of business, we have and in the future may become the subject of various claims, lawsuits and administrative proceedings seeking damages or other remedies concerning our commercial operations, the products we distribute, employees and other matters, including potential claims by individuals alleging exposure to hazardous materials as a result of the products we distribute or our operations. Some of these claims may relate to the activities of businesses that we have acquired, even though these activities may have occurred prior to our acquisition of such businesses. The products we distribute are sold primarily for use in the energy industry, which is subject to inherent risks that could result in death, personal injury, property damage, pollution or loss of production. In addition, defects in the products we distribute could result in death, personal injury, property damage, pollution or damage to equipment and facilities. Actual or claimed defects in the products we distribute may give rise to claims against us for losses and expose us to claims for damages.

We maintain insurance to cover certain of our potential losses, and we are subject to various self-retentions, deductibles and caps under our insurance. It is possible, however, that judgments could be rendered against us in cases in which we would be uninsured and beyond the amounts that we currently have reserved or anticipate incurring for such matters. Even a partially uninsured claim, if successful and of significant size, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Furthermore, we may not be able to continue to obtain insurance on commercially reasonable terms in the future, and we may incur losses from interruption of our business that exceed our insurance coverage. Finally, even in cases where we maintain insurance coverage, our insurers may raise various objections and exceptions to coverage which could make uncertain the timing and amount of any possible insurance recovery.

34

Due to Our Position as a Distributor, We Are Subject to Personal Injury, Product Liability and Environmental Claims Involving Allegedly Defective Products.

Certain of the products we distribute are used in potentially hazardous applications that can result in personal injury, product liability and environmental claims. A catastrophic occurrence at a location where the products we distribute are used may result in us being named as a defendant in lawsuits asserting potentially large claims, even though we did not manufacture the products, and applicable law may render us liable for damages without regard to negligence or fault. Particularly, certain environmental laws provide for joint and several and strict liability for remediation of spills and releases of hazardous substances. Certain of these risks are reduced by the fact that we are a distributor of products produced by third-party manufacturers, and thus in certain circumstances we may have third-party warranty or other claims against the manufacturer of products alleged to have been defective. However, there is no assurance that such claims could fully protect us or that the manufacturer would be able financially to provide such protection. There is no assurance that our insurance coverage will be adequate to cover the underlying claims and our insurance does not provide coverage for all liabilities (including liability for certain events involving pollution).

We Are a Defendant in Asbestos-Related Lawsuits, and Exposure to These and Any Future Lawsuits Could Have a Material Adverse Effect on Our Business, Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

We are a defendant in lawsuits involving approximately 940 claims as of December 31, 2010 alleging, among other things, personal injury, including mesothelioma and other cancers, arising from exposure to asbestos-containing materials included in products distributed by us in the past. Each claim involves allegations of exposure to asbestos-containing materials by a single individual, his or her spouseand/or family members. The complaints in these lawsuits typically name many other defendants. In the majority of these lawsuits, little or no information is known regarding the nature of the plaintiffs’ alleged injuries or their connection with the products we distributed. Based on our experience with asbestos litigation to date, as well as the existence of certain insurance coverage, we do not believe that the outcome of these claims will have a material impact on us. However, the potential liability associated with asbestos claims is subject to many uncertainties, including negative trends with respect to settlement payments, dismissal rates and the types of medical conditions alleged in pending or future claims, negative developments in the claims pending against us, the current or future insolvency of co-defendants, adverse changes in relevant laws or the interpretation thereof, and the extent to which insurance will be available to pay for defense costs, judgments or settlements. Further, while we anticipate that additional claims will be filed against us in the future, we are unable to predict with any certainty the number, timing and magnitude of such future claims. Therefore, we can give no assurance that pending or future asbestos litigation will not ultimately have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies — Legal Proceedings” and “Business — Overview of Our Business — Legal Proceedings” for more information.

If We Lose Any of Our Key Personnel, We May Be Unable to Effectively Manage Our Business or Continue Our Growth.

Our future performance depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of our management team and our ability to attract, hire, train and retain qualified managerial, sales and marketing personnel. Particularly, we rely on our sales and marketing teams to create innovative ways to generate demand for the products we distribute. The loss or unavailability to us of any member of our management team or a key sales or marketing employee could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition to the extent we are unable to timely find adequate replacements. We face competition for these professionals from our competitors, our customers and other companies operating in our industry. We may be unsuccessful in attracting, hiring, training and retaining qualified personnel, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected under such circumstances.

35

Interruptions in the Proper Functioning of Our Information Systems Could Disrupt Operations and Cause Increases in Costs and/or Decreases in Revenues.

The proper functioning of our information systems is critical to the successful operation of our business. We depend on our information technology systems to process orders, track credit risk, manage inventory and monitor accounts receivable collections. Our information systems also allow us to efficiently purchase products from our vendors and ship products to our customers on a timely basis, maintain cost-effective operations and provide superior service to our customers. However, our information systems are vulnerable to natural disasters, power losses, telecommunication failures and other problems. If critical information systems fail or are otherwise unavailable, our ability to procure products to sell, process and ship customer orders, identify business opportunities, maintain proper levels of inventories, collect accounts receivable and pay accounts payable and expenses could be adversely affected. Our ability to integrate our systems with our customers’ systems would also be significantly affected. We maintain information systems controls designed to protect against, among other things, unauthorized program changes and unauthorized access to data on our information systems. If our information systems controls do not function properly, we face increased risks of unexpected errors and unreliable financial data.

The Loss of Third-Party Transportation Providers upon Whom We Depend, or Conditions Negatively Affecting the Transportation Industry, Could Increase Our Costs or Cause a Disruption in Our Operations.

We depend upon third-party transportation providers for delivery of products to our customers. Strikes, slowdowns, transportation disruptions or other conditions in the transportation industry, including, but not limited to, shortages of truck drivers, disruptions in rail service, increases in fuel prices and adverse weather conditions, could increase our costs and disrupt our operations and our ability to service our customers on a timely basis. We cannot predict whether or to what extent recent increases or anticipated increases in fuel prices may impact our costs or cause a disruption in our operations going forward.

We May Need Additional Capital in the Future and It May Not Be Available on Acceptable Terms.

We may require more capital in the future to:

•  fund our operations;

•  finance investments in equipment and infrastructure needed to maintain and expand our distribution capabilities;

•  enhance and expand the range of products we offer; and

•  respond to potential strategic opportunities, such as investments, acquisitions and international expansion.

We can give no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. The terms of available financing may place limits on our financial and operating flexibility. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, we may be forced to reduce our operations or delay, limit or abandon expansion opportunities. Moreover, even if we are able to continue our operations, the failure to obtain additional financing could reduce our competitiveness.

Hurricanes or Other Adverse Weather Events or Natural Disasters Could Negatively Affect Our Local Economies or Disrupt Our Operations, Which Could Have an Adverse Effect on Our Business or Results of Operations.

Certain areas in which we operate are susceptible to hurricanes and other adverse weather conditions or natural disasters, such as earthquakes. Such events can disrupt our operations, result in damage to our properties and negatively affect the local economies in which we operate. Additionally, we may experience communication disruptions with our customers, vendors and employees. These events can cause physical damage to our branches and require us to close branches in order to secure our employees. Additionally, our sales order backlog and shipments can experience a temporary decline immediately following such events.

36

We cannot predict whether or to what extent damage caused by such events will affect our operations or the economies in regions where we operate. These adverse events could result in disruption of our purchasingand/or distribution capabilities, interruption of our business that exceeds our insurance coverage, our inability to collect from customers and increased operating costs. Our business or results of operations may be adversely affected by these and other negative effects of such events.

We Have a Substantial Amount of Goodwill and Other Intangibles Recorded on Our Balance Sheet, Partly Because of Our Recent Acquisitions and Business Combination Transactions. The Amortization of Acquired Assets Will Reduce Our Future Reported Earnings and, Furthermore, If Our Goodwill or Other Intangible Assets Become Impaired, We May Be Required to Recognize Charges that Would Reduce Our Income.

As of December 31, 2010, we had $1.4 billion of goodwill and other intangibles recorded on our balance sheet. A substantial portion of these intangible assets result from our use of purchase accounting in connection with the acquisitions we have made over the past several years. In accordance with the purchase accounting method, the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets is assigned to goodwill. The amortization expense associated with our identifiable intangible assets will have a negative effect on our future reported earnings. Many other companies, including many of our competitors, will not have the significant acquired intangible assets that we have because they have not participated in recent acquisitions and business combination transactions similar to ours. Thus, their reported earnings will not be as negatively affected by the amortization of identifiable intangible assets as our reported earnings will be.

Additionally, under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, goodwill and certain other intangible assets are not amortized, but must be reviewed for possible impairment annually, or more often in certain circumstances where events indicate that the asset values are not recoverable. Such reviews could result in an earnings charge for the impairment of goodwill, which would reduce our net income even though there would be no impact on our underlying cash flow. For example, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge in the amount of $310 million during the year ended December 31, 2009. This charge was based on the results of our annual goodwill impairment test which indicated that the book value of our equity exceeded fair value by this amount.

We Face Risks Associated with Conducting Business in Markets Outside of North America.

We currently conduct substantial business in countries outside of North America, principally as a result of our recent acquisition of Transmark. In addition, we are evaluating the possibility of establishing distribution networks in certain other foreign countries, particularly in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and South America. Our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected by economic, legal, political and regulatory developments in the countries in which we do business in the future or in which we expand our business, particularly those countries which have historically experienced a high degree of politicaland/or economic instability. Examples of risks inherent in such non-North American activities include changes in the political and economic conditions in the countries in which we operate, including civil uprisings and terrorist acts, unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, changes in tariffs, the adoption of foreign or domestic laws limiting exports to certain foreign countries, fluctuations in currency exchange rates and the value of the U.S. dollar, restrictions on repatriation of earnings, expropriation of property without fair compensation, governmental actions that result in the deprivation of contract or proprietary rights, the acceptance of business practices which are not consistent with or antithetical to prevailing business practices we are accustomed to in North America including export compliance and anti-bribery practices, and governmental sanctions. If we begin doing business in a foreign country in which we do not presently operate, we may also face difficulties in operations and diversion of management time in connection with establishing our business there.

We May be Unable to Comply with United States and International Laws and Regulations Required to do Business in Foreign Countries.

Doing business on a worldwide basis requires us to comply with the laws and regulations of the U.S. government and various international jurisdictions. These regulations place restrictions on our operations, trade practices, partners and investment decisions. In particular, our international operations are subject to U.S. and

37

foreign anti-corruption laws and regulations, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), and economic sanction programs, including those administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”). As a result of doing business in foreign countries, we are exposed to a heightened risk of violating anti-corruption laws and sanctions regulations.

The FCPA prohibits us from providing anything of value to foreign officials for the purposes of obtaining or retaining business or securing any improper business advantage. It also requires us to keep books and records that accurately and fairly reflect the Company’s transactions. As part of our business, we may deal with state-owned business enterprises, the employees of which are considered foreign officials for purposes of the FCPA. In addition, the United Kingdom Bribery Act (the “Bribery Act”) has been enacted, although the date of implementation has not yet been determined. The provisions of the Bribery Act extend beyond bribery of foreign public officials and are more onerous than the FCPA in a number of other respects, including jurisdiction, non-exemption of facilitation payments and penalties. Some of the international locations in which we operate lack a developed legal system and have higher than normal levels of corruption. Our continued expansion outside the U.S., including in developing countries, and our development of new partnerships and joint venture relationships worldwide, could increase the risk of FCPA, OFAC or Bribery Act violations in the future.

Economic sanctions programs restrict our business dealings with certain sanctioned countries. In addition, because we act as a distributor, we face the risk that our customers might further distribute our products to an ultimate end-user in a sanctioned country, which might subject us to an investigation concerning compliance with the OFAC or other sanctions regulations.

Violations of anti-corruption laws and sanctions regulations are punishable by civil penalties, including fines, denial of export privileges, injunctions, asset seizures, debarment from government contracts and revocations or restrictions of licenses, as well as criminal fines and imprisonment. We have established policies and procedures designed to assist our compliance with applicable U.S. and international laws and regulations, including the forthcoming Bribery Act, and have trained our employees to comply with such laws and regulations. However, there can be no assurance that all of our employees, consultants, agents or partners will not take actions in violation of our policies and these laws, and that our policies and procedures will effectively prevent us from violating these regulations in every transaction in which we may engage. In particular, we may be held liable for the actions taken by our local, strategic or joint venture partners outside of the United States, even though our partners are not subject to the FCPA. Such a violation, even if prohibited by our policies, could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, various state and municipal governments, universities and other investors maintain prohibitions or restrictions on investments in companies that do business with sanctioned countries, which could adversely affect the market for the notes or our other securities.

The Requirements of Being a Publicly Reporting Company in Connection with the Exchange Offer, Including Compliance with the Reporting Requirements of the Exchange Act and Certain of the Requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, may Strain Our Resources, Increase Our Costs and Distract Management, and We May Be Unable to Comply with These Requirements in a Timely or Cost-Effective Manner.

As a publicly reporting company, we will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, and certain requirements imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, after consummation of this offering. These requirements may place a strain on our management, systems and resources. The Exchange Act will require that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and financial condition within specified time periods. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act will require that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and will require management to report on the effectiveness of those controls. Due to our limited operating history, our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls may not meet all of the standards applicable to companies subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In order to maintain and improve the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, significant resources and management oversight will be required. We cannot be assured that the oversight methods will be effective. Management’s attention may be diverted from other business concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

38

We also expect that it could be difficult and will be significantly more expensive to obtain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. We cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

We Will Be Exposed to Risks Relating to Evaluations of Controls Required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act After Consummation of the Exchange Offer Related to the Notes.

Following consummation of this offering, we will be required to evaluate our internal controls systems in order to allow management to report on, and our independent auditors to audit, our internal control over financial reporting. We will be required to perform the system and process evaluation and testing (and any necessary remediation) required to comply with the management certification and auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and will be required to comply with Section 404 beginning with our second annual report which we file after consummation of this offering (subject to any change in applicable SEC rules). Furthermore, upon completion of this process, we may identify control deficiencies of varying degrees of severity under applicable SEC and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) rules and regulations that remain unremediated. As a publicly reporting company, we will be required to report, among other things, control deficiencies that constitute a “material weakness” or changes in internal controls that, or that are reasonably likely to, materially affect internal control over financial reporting. A “material weakness” is a significant deficiency or combination of significant deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that results in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Following this offering, if we fail to implement the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, we might be subject to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities such as the SEC or the PCAOB. If we do not implement improvements to our disclosure controls and procedures or to our internal controls in a timely manner, our independent registered public accounting firm may not be able to certify as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to an audit of our internal control over financial reporting. This may subject us to adverse regulatory consequences or a loss of confidence in the reliability of our financial statements. We could also suffer a loss of confidence in the reliability of our financial statements if our independent registered public accounting firm reports a material weakness in our internal controls, if we do not develop and maintain effective controls and procedures or if we are otherwise unable to deliver timely and reliable financial information. Any loss of confidence in the reliability of our financial statements or other negative reaction to our failure to develop timely or adequate disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls could affect our access to the capital markets. In addition, if we fail to remedy any material weakness, our financial statements may be inaccurate and we may face restricted access to the capital markets.

The Securities and Exchange Commission Moving Forward to a Single Set of International Accounting Standards Could Materially Impact Our Results of Operations.

The SEC continues to move forward with a convergence to a single set of international accounting standards (such as International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)) and associated changes in regulatory accounting may negatively impact the way we record revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Currently, under IFRS, the LIFO method of valuing inventory is not permitted. If we had ceased valuing our inventory under the LIFO method at December 31, 2010, we would have been required to make tax payments approximating $122 million over the subsequent four years.

The Financial Statements Presented in this Prospectus May Not Provide an Accurate Indication of What Our Future Results of Operations Are Likely to Be.

Given our recent history of consummating numerous acquisitions, our financial statements may not represent an accurate picture of what our future performance will be. We acquired the remaining 15% majority voting interest in McJunkin Appalachian in January 2007, we acquired Midway-Tristate Corporation in April 2007, we entered into a business combination with Red Man in October 2007 (effectively doubling our size) (the “Red Man Transaction”), we acquired the remaining approximately 49% noncontrolling interest in Midfield in July 2008, we acquired LaBarge in October 2008 and we acquired Transmark in October 2009. Our limited combined operating history may make it difficult to forecast our future operating results and financial condition. In particular, because of the significance of the Red Man Transaction, the financial statements for periods prior to that transaction are not comparable with those after the transaction.

SELECTED HISTORICAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL AND OTHER DATA

On January 31, 2007, McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation, an affiliate of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., acquired a majority of the equity of the entity now known as McJunkin Red Man Corporation (then known as McJunkin Corporation) (the “GS Acquisition”). In this prospectus, the term “Predecessor” refers to McJunkin Corporation and its subsidiaries prior to January 31, 2007 and the term “Successor” refers to the entity now known as McJunkin Red Man Corporation and its subsidiaries on and after January 31, 2007. As a result of the change in McJunkin Corporation’s basis of accounting in connection with the GS Acquisition, Predecessor’s financial statement data for the one month ended January 30, 2007 and earlier periods is not comparable to Successor’s financial data for the eleven months ended December 31, 2007 and subsequent periods.

McJunkin Red Man Corporation acquired Transmark on October 30, 2009. Operating results for the year ended December 31, 2009 include the results of McJunkin Red Man Corporation for the full period and the results of Transmark for the two months after the business combination on October 30, 2009.

McJunkin Corporation completed a business combination transaction with Red Man Pipe & Supply Co. (“Red Man”, which has since been merged with and into McJunkin Red Man Corporation) on October 31, 2007. At that time McJunkin Corporation was renamed McJunkin Red Man Corporation. Operating results for the eleven-month period ended December 31, 2007 include the results of McJunkin Red Man Corporation for the full period and the results of Red Man for the two months after the business combination on October 31, 2007. Accordingly, McJunkin Red Man Corporation’s results for the 11 months ended December 31, 2007 are not comparable to McJunkin’s results for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.

The selected consolidated financial information presented below under the captions Statement of Income Data and Other Financial Data for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, and the selected consolidated financial information presented below under the caption Balance Sheet Data as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, have been derived from the consolidated financial statements of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation included elsewhere in this prospectus that have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. All references throughout this section (and elsewhere in this report) to amounts available for borrowing under various credit facilities refer to amounts actually available for borrowing after giving effect to any borrowing base limitations imposed by the facility.

Overview

We are the largest global distributor of pipe, valves and fittings (“PVF”) and related products and services to the energy industry based on sales and hold the leading position in our industry across each of the upstream (exploration, production and extraction of underground oil and natural gas), midstream (gathering and transmission of oil and natural gas, natural gas utilities and the storage and distribution of oil and natural gas) and downstream (crude oil refining, petrochemical processing and general industrials) end markets. We currently operate approximately 220 branches, including over 180 branches located in the most active oil and natural gas regions in North America and over 30 branches throughout Europe, Asia and Australasia. In North America, we operate six major distribution centers, five in the United States and one in western Canada. Internationally, we operate distribution centers in several locations throughout Europe, Asia and Australasia. We also serve our customers through more than ten valve actuation and other service locations and more than 190 pipe yards. We offer a wide array of PVF and oilfield supplies encompassing a complete line of products, from our global network of suppliers, to our more than 10,000 active customers. We are diversified, both by geography and end market. We seek to providebest-in-class service to our customers by satisfying the most complex, multi-site needs of many of the largest companies in the energy and industrial sectors as their primary PVF supplier. We believe the critical role we play in our customers’ supply chain, together with our extensive product offering, broad global presence, customer-linked scalable information systems and efficient distribution capabilities, serve to solidify our long-standing customer relationships and drive our growth. As a result, we have an average relationship of over 20 years with our top ten customers and our sales in 2010 were nearly twice that of our nearest competitor.

We have benefited historically from several growth trends within the energy industry, including high levels of expansion and maintenance expenditures by our customers. Although these trends have been offset in the last two years due to adverse economic conditions, we believe that longer-term growth in PVF spending within the energy industry will continue. The long-term growth in spending has been driven by several factors, including underinvestment in North American energy infrastructure, production and capacity constraints and market expectations of future improvements in the oil, natural gas, refined products and petrochemical markets. In addition, the products we distribute are often used in extreme operating environments, leading to the need for a regular replacement cycle. As a result, approximately two-thirds of our sales in 2010 were attributable to multi-year maintenance, repair and operations (“MRO”) contracts. We consider MRO contracts to be normal, repetitive business that deals primarily with the regular maintenance, repair or operational work to existing energy infrastructure. Project activities including facility expansions or new construction projects are more commonly associated with a customer’s capital expenditures budget and can be sensitive to global oil and natural gas prices and general economic conditions. We mitigate our exposure to price volatility by limiting the length of any price-protected contracts. As pricing rebounds, we believe that we will have the ability to pass price increases on to the marketplace.

Key Drivers of Our Business

Our revenues are predominantly derived from the sale of PVF and other oilfield service supplies to the energy industry in North America, Europe, Asia and Australasia. Our business is therefore dependent upon both the current conditions and future prospects in the energy industry and, in particular, maintenance and expansionary operating, capital and other expenditures by our customers in the upstream, midstream and downstream end markets of the industry. Long-term growth in spending has been, and we believe will continue to be, driven by several factors,

47

including underinvestment in global energy infrastructure, production and capacity constraints, and anticipated strength in the oil, natural gas, refined products and petrochemical markets. Though oil and natural gas prices are currently below the record levels set in 2008, oil and, to a lesser extent, natural gas prices, have remained elevated relative to their historical levels and we believe will continue to drive capital and other expenditures by our customers. The outlook for future oil, natural gas, refined products and petrochemical spending for PVF is influenced by numerous factors, including the following:

•  Oil and Natural Gas Commodity Prices.  Sales of PVF and related products to the oil and natural gas industry constitute a significant portion of our sales. As a result, we depend upon the oil and natural gas industry and its ability and willingness to make capital and other expenditures to explore for, produce and process oil and natural gas and refined products. Oil and natural gas prices, both current and projected, impact other drivers of our business, including rig counts, drilling and completion spending, additions and maintenance to pipeline mileage and refinery utilization.

•  Steel Prices, Availability and Supply and Demand.  Fluctuations in steel prices can lead to volatility in the pricing of the products we distribute, especially carbon steel tubular products, which can influence the buying patterns of our customers. A majority of the products we distribute contain various types of steel, and the worldwide supply and demand for these products, or other steel products that we do not supply, impacts the pricing and availability of our products and, ultimately, our sales and operating profitability.

•  Economic Conditions.  The demand for the products we distribute is dependent on the general economy, the energy and industrials sectors and other factors. Changes in the general economy or in the energy and industrials sectors (domestically or internationally) can cause demand for the products we distribute to materially change. For instance, the recent economic downturn decreased demand for the products we distribute, resulting in lower sales volumes, and a prolonged economic downturn could have a material impact on our business.

•  Customer, Manufacturer and Distributor Inventory Levels of PVF and Related Products.  Customer, manufacturer and distributor inventory levels of PVF and related products can change significantly from period to period. Increases in our customers’ inventory levels can have an adverse effect on the demand for the products we distribute when customers draw from inventory rather than purchase new products. Reduced demand, in turn, would likely result in reduced sales volume and overall profitability. Increased inventory levels by manufacturers or other distributors can cause an oversupply of PVF and related products in our markets and reduce the prices that we are able to charge for the products we distribute. Reduced prices, in turn, would likely reduce our profitability. Conversely, decreased customer and manufacturer inventory levels may ultimately lead to increased demand for our products and would likely result in increased sales volumes and overall profitability.

Outlook

During 2010, the industry has seen oil prices stabilize, while natural gas prices have weakened. U.S. drilling activity has increased, primarily in the shale basin regions, and oil drilling now represents over 40% of the total rig count, its highest level since 1988. In the United States, we have seen the activity increase across the major shale regions, such as the Marcellus, Eagle Ford and Bakken, and have shipped approximately 23% more tons of energy carbon steel tubular products during 2010 as compared to 2009. Major capital projects in the downstream market continue to be delayed and our major customers are working from relatively conservative budgets, so we anticipate that there will be a time lag before we see a significant increase in our downstream activity.

Our upstream end market performance increased slightly in 2010 as compared to 2009, with an increase in drilling activities in the major shale regions, in particular the Eagle Ford and Bakken shale regions. In the U.S., the average total rig count was up 42% in 2010 as compared to 2009. However, lower natural gas prices have begun to impact certain shale regions, such as Haynesville and Barnett, and rig counts in those areas have begun to decline. In the Gulf of Mexico, the United States government initiated a moratorium on deepwater drilling, which applied to any deepwater floating facilities with drilling activities, which was scheduled to last through November 2010. The moratorium on deepwater drilling was lifted in October 2010, but there remains uncertainty on the timing of approval for permits under the new rules and we do not anticipate a recovery in deepwater drilling until the third to

48

fourth quarter of 2011. In Canada, the average total rig count was up 59% in 2010 as compared to 2009, although lower natural gas prices are starting to impact the rig count in Canada as well. We have seen an increase in maintenance, repair and operations (“MRO”), particularly in the Canadian heavy oil, and tar sands regions, which has mitigated the downturn in project oriented work elsewhere in Canada.

With natural gas prices weakening and oil drilling increasing, we have strengthened our position within the large oil and natural gas liquids regions in North America. During 2010, we acquired The South Texas Supply Company, Inc. (“South Texas Supply”) and operations and assets from Dresser Oil Tools, Inc. (“Dresser”) as part of our strategic focus to increase our presence and commitment to our customers in the active shale regions across North America. South Texas Supply is located in a high activity area of the emerging Eagle Ford shale development and the Dresser assets are located in the Bakken shale development. Both of these formations have heavy concentrations of oil and natural gas liquids and are seeing significant increases in drilling activity. In addition to these acquisitions, we recently have opened new facilities in Horseheads, New York, supporting the activity in the northern Marcellus Shale and in Shreveport, Louisiana and Center, Texas, supporting the activity in the Haynesville Shale.

Our midstream end market performance was relatively stable in 2010 compared to 2009. Our revenues from our natural gas utilities customers were impacted by the colder than average winter weather in early 2010, along with a decrease in pipe pricing for carbon steel and polyethylene pipe. Looking into 2011, we expect the natural gas utility companies to increase their focus on their pipeline integrity. Our sequential gathering and transmission pipeline revenues were up during 2010, as a result of the increase in drilling activity, primarily in the shale basins, and the need for additional pipeline infrastructure.

Our downstream and other industrials end market performance is beginning to experience a slow recovery. Refineries are recognizing slightly improved margins on gasoline and distillates, which normally drive consistent maintenance programs from the MRO portion of this market. The downstream market participants still appear to be very cautious in adding additional major capital spending in refining, based on the current oversupply of capacity in the United States markets. Our maintenance and small capital projects activity to the chemical and general industrials end markets has increased in 2010 and continues to improve along with the general economy. We have seen a slowing of downstream capital and operating expenditures in Europe during the last half of 2010, which has impacted both MRO and small project work. Australasian activity remains steady and significant capital outlays have been announced for the liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) green field development in this area.

We witnessed global steel price increases throughout much of 2010, and steel prices for the products that we sell continue a generally upward trend, as a result of relatively greater demand, as evidenced by generally stronger drilling and completion activities, industrial activity, and higher raw material commodity prices. Finally, the flooding in Australia has disrupted the supply of coking coal, iron ore and nickel, and this and other factors have led to further increases in steel’s raw material prices.

The breakdown of our sales by end market for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 was as follows:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2010			2009			2008
Upstream		45	%		44	%		45	%
Midstream		23	%		24	%		22	%
Downstream and other industrials		32	%		32	%		33	%
		100	%		100	%		100	%

As a percentage of sales, our upstream activity increased slightly, approximating 45% of our sales during 2010, compared to 44% of our sales during 2009. North America natural gas rig counts, which account for approximately 58% of the total North America rig count activity, increased approximately 18% on ayear-over-year basis. We saw an improvement of approximately 7% in our North America upstream sales from 2009 to 2010, due to an increase in our MRO activity, as well as higher OCTG volumes, although OCTG prices remained relatively stable in the second half of 2010. Internationally, our upstream activity decreased due to significant reductions in E&P spending in the North Sea.

As a percentage of sales, our midstream activity, including pipelines, well tie-ins and natural gas utilities, remained relatively consistent, to 23% of sales during 2010 from 24% of sales during 2009. Our gathering and transmission pipeline sales increased approximately 6% in 2010, primarily in the Haynesville and Marcellus shale plays. Our natural gas utilities MRO activity declined 11%, offsetting the increase in our gathering and transmission pipeline sales. Additionally, the proportion of our end market revenues shifted slightly to the upstream and downstream markets with the acquisition of Transmark in October 2009.

As a percentage of sales, our downstream and other industrials sales were relatively stableyear-over-year at 32% of sales. Despite some recent improvement, U.S. refineries continue to be challenged by tight margins and overseas production capacity additions. Although U.S. refinery utilization improved in 2010 from a low point of 77% at the end of January to a high point of 91% at the end of July, utilization has declined to 88% at the end of December. In North America, customers continue to delay certain project work, as they seek to preserve capital and delay capital and other expenditures until 2011 or later. Our sales to the chemicals and the general industrials markets continued to improve in line with the general economy during 2010, increasing 24% year over-year. Our International segment, operated through MRC Transmark, has a greater focus on oil and a lesser focus on natural gas as compared to our North American segment. Our downstream activity in Europe declined, as we have seen slowdowns in capital expenditure projects in the refining sector of Europe, due to shrinking refining margins and capital investment constraints. In Asia and Australasia, activity has decreased due to reductions in our customers’ capital spending programs.

Sales.  Our sales were $3.85 billion for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to the $3.66 billion for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of 5%.

Although our North American sales were down slightlyyear-over-year, we started to see signs of an improving economy beginning in the fourth quarter of 2009. The previous year’s results included the carryover effect from high average capital and other expenditures during 2008, which was evident in our strong results though the first four months of 2009. As the economic environment in which we operate improved, including theyear-over-year growth in rig counts and commodity prices, our sales have followed. The fourth quarter of 2010 represented our fifth consecutive quarter of revenue growth. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the U.S. Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) expanded by 2.9%, compared with a 2.6% contraction during the year ended December 31, 2009.

Internationally, our sales have weakened in 2010, due to reduced capital and other expenditures and project delays by our customers, especially in our downstream end market.

52

Sales of energy carbon steel tubular products accounted for approximately 38% and 40% of our total sales for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. The change in sales of our energy carbon steel tubular products from 2009 to 2010 can be attributed to an approximate 22% increase in sales volumes, offset by an approximate 11% decrease in price. Substantially all of our energy carbon steel tubular products are sold in North America. Our valves, fittings, flanges and other products are not as susceptible to significant price fluctuations and pricing was largely consistent with 2009 levels.

We operate in many foreign countries and are subject to foreign currency rate fluctuations. Approximately 20% of our 2010 revenues were generated in domiciles outside of the United States, compared to 12% in 2009 (principally as a result of the acquisition of Transmark at the end of October 2009).

Gross Margin.  Our gross margin was $589 million (or 15.3% of sales) for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $609 million (or 16.6% of sales) for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Our North American gross margin decreased to 14.0% in 2010, from 16.4% in 2009. During the year ended December 31, 2010, we recognized $75 million in increased cost of sales related to our use of the last in-first-out (“LIFO”) method of accounting for inventory costs, compared to an $116 million decrease in cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2009. Also, during the year ended December 31, 2009, we recognized a $46 million inventory write-down; there was no significant inventory write-down during the year ended December 31, 2010. In addition, we continue to work through higher cost inventory, from the carryover effect of 2008. Although a majority of the inventory was worked through in 2009, and to a lesser extent in 2010, some small amounts remain. These factors resulted in a reduction in our gross margins from 2009 to 2010.

Internationally, our margin remained strong, increasing to 34.0% of sales in 2010 from 31.7% of sales in 2009.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses.  Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $448 million (or 11.6% of sales) for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $409 million (or 11.2% of sales) for the year ended December 31, 2009. Our North American SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales decreased to 10.7% from 11.0%, as we implemented various cost savings initiatives, including reducing employee headcount by 2%, to right size our operations in light of the economic environment we faced. With our International business softening, we are currently evaluating similar cost savings initiatives for our International segment for 2011.

Goodwill Impairment Charge.  During 2009, our earnings progressively decreased due to the reductions in our customers’ expenditure programs caused by the global economic recession, reductions in oil and natural gas commodity prices and other factors. These reductions resulted in reduced demand for our products and lower sales prices/margins, which altered our view of our marketplace. Consequently, we revised certain long-term projections for our business, which in turn impacted its estimated fair value. As a result, we concluded that the carrying value of our North American reporting unit exceeded its fair value and recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge in the amount of $310 million during the year ended December 31, 2009. There was no such goodwill impairment charge recorded during the year ended December 31, 2010.

Operating Income (Loss).  Operating income was $70 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to an operating loss of $170 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, an improvement of $240 million. The results of 2009 were impacted by the $310 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge, as well as the $46 million non-cash inventory write-down.

Interest Expense.  Our interest expense was $140 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $117 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase was due to a higher weighted-average interest rate, including the impact of our interest rate swap agreements and various commitment fees, which increased to 8.5% during 2010 from 6.6% in 2009. The issuance of our 9.50% senior secured notes in December 2009 and February 2010 had the impact of increasing the interest rate that we pay on $1.05 billion of debt by approximately 250 basis points. Also, in connection with the amendment to our principal revolving credit facility, the interest rate and commitment fees on such facility increased by approximately 200 basis points and 12.5 basis points, respectively.

53

Other, net.  We use derivative instruments to help manage our exposure to interest rate risks and certain foreign currency risks. The change in the fair market value of our derivatives reduced earnings by $5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 and increased earnings by $9 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Income Tax Benefit (Expense).  Our income tax benefit was $23 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to income tax expense of $13 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. Our effective tax rates were 31.1% for the year ended December 31, 2010 and (4.7)% for the year ended December 31, 2009. The 2010 rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 35% principally as a result of the impact of differing foreign income tax rates, which included the establishment of a valuation allowance related to certain foreign net operating loss carryforwards. The 2009 rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily as a result of our nondeductible goodwill impairment charge.

Net (Loss).  Our net loss was $52 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $292 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, an improvement of $240 million, primarily as a result of the $310 million goodwill impairment charge recorded in 2009.

Adjusted EBITDA.  Adjusted EBITDA (as calculated for purposes of the indenture governing the exchange notes) was $150 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $334 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The following table reconciles Adjusted EBITDA with our net income (loss), as derived from our financial statements (in millions):

Sales.  Our sales were $3.66 billion for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to $5.26 billion for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Our North American sales decreased approximately $1.6 billion (31%), primarily due to reduced operating expenses and capital and other expenditures by our customers. Although our strong 2008 results carried over into the first four months of 2009, our results suffered from the global economic slowdown. Both the average rig counts in North America and commodity prices substantially fell, as the U.S. Gross Domestic Product contracted by 2.6% in 2009, compared to being virtually flat for the 2008 year.

Gross Margin.  Our gross margin was $609 million (or 16.6% of sales) for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to $1,038 million (or 19.8% of sales) for the year ended December 31, 2008.

55

Our North American gross margin decreased to 16.4% from 19.8%. During the year ended December 31, 2009, we recognized a $116 million decrease in our cost of sales related to our use of the LIFO method of accounting for inventory costs, compared to an $126 million increase in cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2008.

We perform an internal analysis of our inventory on a quarterly basis, comparing the carrying value of our inventory to the estimated market value of the inventory. As a result of this analysis, we recognized a $46 million inventory write-down; there was no such inventory write-down during the year ended December 31, 2008.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses.  Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $409 million (or 11% of sales) for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to $482 million (or 9% of sales) for the year ended December 31, 2008. Our North American SG&A expenses decreased 17%, due to a decrease in personnel costs and an overall effort to reduce our expenses due to a reduction in our sales volumes. As part of our cost savings initiatives, we reduced our North American headcount by approximately 18%.

Goodwill Impairment Charge.  During 2009, our earnings progressively decreased due to the reductions in our customers’ expenditure programs caused by the global economic recession, reductions in oil and natural gas commodity prices and other factors. These reductions resulted in reduced demand for our products and lower sales prices/margins, which altered our view of our marketplace. Consequently, we revised certain long-term projections for our business, which in turn impacted its estimated fair value. As a result, we concluded that the carrying value of our North American reporting unit exceeded its fair value and recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge in the amount of $310 million during the year ended December 31, 2009. There was no such goodwill impairment charge recorded during the year ended December 31, 2008.

Operating (Loss) Income.  Including the impact of the $310 million goodwill impairment charge, our operating loss was $171 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to operating income of $500 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Interest Expense.  Our interest expense was $117 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to $85 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase of $32 million was due to an increase in the average debt balances during the year. The increase in the average debt balances was due to: (i) debt assumed in conjunction with the LaBarge acquisition (October 2008), (ii) debt incurred for working capital expansion during the first quarter of 2009, (iii) debt incurred for the May 2008 dividend recapitalization transaction, and (iv) debt assumed in conjunction with the Transmark acquisition (October 2009). Also, as a result of the 2009 de-designation and termination of our $700 million interest rate swap agreement, we recorded $12 million and $16 million, respectively, to interest expense. Our weighted average interest rates increased slightly to 6.6% from 6.5%.

Other, net.  We recorded a net gain on early extinguishment of debt of $1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. We purchased and retired $10 million of junior term loan facility debt in March 2009, resulting in a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $6 million ($4 million, net of deferred income taxes). We purchased and retired $25 million of junior term loan facility debt in April 2009, resulting in a gain of $10 million ($6 million, net of deferred income taxes). We used the proceeds from the sale of the notes issued in December 2009 to pay off our term loan facility and our junior term loan facility. In connection with these payoffs, we wrote off approximately $14 million of unamortized debt issue costs that pertained to those facilities. We had no such extinguishments of debt during the year ended December 31, 2008.

We use derivative instruments to help manage our exposure to interest rate risks and certain foreign currency risks. The change in the fair market value of our derivatives increased our earnings by $9 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 and reduced our earnings by $6 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Income Tax Benefit (Expense).  Our income tax expense was $13 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to $153 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. Our effective tax rates were (4.7%) and 37.7% for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These rates differ from the federal statutory rate of 35% principally as a result of our goodwill impairment charge and state income taxes. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in taxes attributable to our international operations. Excluding the impact of our goodwill impairment charge, our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2009 would have been 41.9%.

56

Net (Loss).  Our net loss was $292 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared to net income of $253 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. Excluding the impact of MRC Transmark ($4 million), net income decreased $550 million as a result of the items noted above, including, in particular, the $310 million goodwill impairment charge.

Adjusted EBITDA.  Adjusted EBITDA (as calculated for purposes of the indenture governing the exchange notes) was $334 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to $618 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.

The following table reconciles Adjusted EBITDA with our net (loss) income, as derived from our financial statements (in millions):

Financial Condition and Cash Flows

Financial Condition

The following table sets forth selected balance sheet data for the periods indicated below (in millions):

	December 31,		December 31,
	2010		2009
Inventory	$	765.4	$	871.7
Working capital		842.6		930.2
Long-term debt, including current portion		1,360.2		1,452.6

Starting in 2010, we have been emphasizing a shift in our sales to higher gross margin products. Typically, oil country tubular goods (within our energy carbon steel tubular product portfolio) has generated the lowest gross margin. In alignment with this shift in emphasis, we have been re-balancing our inventories. At the end of 2010, our energy carbon steel tubular products constituted approximately 45% of our inventory balance, down from 56% at the end of 2009. Conversely, our oilfield and natural gas distribution products, which typically generate a higher gross margin, comprised 55% of our inventory at the end of 2010, up from 44% at the end of 2009.

Our working capital decreased 9%, as reduction in inventories was offset by volume related increases in accounts receivable and accounts payable, resulting in a $92 million reduction in long-term borrowings. We closely monitor our working capital position to ensure that we have the appropriate flexibility for our operations.

Cash Flows

The following table sets forth our cash flows for the periods indicated below (in millions):

	Year Ended December 31,
	2010			2009			2008
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	112.5		$	505.5		$	(137.4	)
Investing activities		(16.2	)		(66.9	)		(314.2	)

Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	(1.6	)	$	44.7		$	0.4
Effect of foreign exchange rate on cash	$	1.7		$	(0.6	)	$	1.7

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $393 million to $113 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, primarily from operations. Net cash provided by operations increased $643 million from 2008 to 2009, primarily from changes in our working capital, most notably inventory, as we implemented our Inventory Reduction Plan in response to changing market conditions. This provided $367 million of cash in 2009 as compared to using $462 million in 2008.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $51 million to $16 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. In each year, our net cash used primarily related to our acquisition activity. In 2010, $12 million was used to acquire South Texas and Dresser. In 2009, $56 million was used to acquire Transmark. In 2008, $299 million was used for three transactions: (1) acquisition of LaBarge Pipe & Steel Company ($152 million), (2) purchase of the remaining 49% interest in Midfield Supply ULC ($132 million), and (3) carryover from the Red Man Pipe & Supply Co. acquisition ($15 million).

Our capital expenditures, net, are typically approximately 0.3% of our sales for any given year.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities decreased by $296 million to $98 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease represents our discipline in managing our working capital and paying down our indebtedness. The decrease from 2008 to 2009 reflected our efforts to reduce our working capital, primarily inventories, the proceeds of which were used to reduce our outstanding debt balances. During 2009, we substantially reduced the balance of our indebtedness. Excluding the impact of the Transmark acquisition and costs associated with the notes, our debt is down from its peak in February 2009 to its low point in April 2010 by approximately $580 million. As a result of this reduction, we reduced the balance of our revolving credit facilities by approximately $343 million during 2009. Also, in conjunction with the various amendments to our credit facilities and the issuance of the notes, we paid $27 million in debt issuance costs, which will be amortized over the life of the respective facility. During 2008, we increased the balance on our revolving credit facilities to support the growth of our business, both for acquisitions and for working capital. In 2008, we received proceeds of $897 million, partially offset by our dividend recapitalization of $475 million to our shareholders.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity consist of cash generated from our operating activities, existing cash balances and borrowings under our existing revolving credit facilities. Our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from our operating activities will continue to be primarily dependent on our sales of PVF and other products and services to our customers at margins sufficient to cover our fixed and variable expenses. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $56 million. A substantial portion of our cash and cash equivalents is maintained in

58

the accounts of our various foreign subsidiaries and, if such amounts were transferred among countries or repatriated to the U.S., such amounts may be subject to additional tax liabilities.

Our credit facilities consist of a $900 million revolving credit facility in the U.S., two credit facilities of our Canadian subsidiary and a credit facility of our international subsidiary. We maintain these facilities primarily to finance our working capital, as well as certain mergers and acquisitions. At December 31, 2010, we had $475 million available under these credit facilities. As noted above, our ability to transfer funds among countries could be hampered by additional tax liabilities imposed as a result of these transfers. From time to time, we may consider opportunistic refinancing of our outstanding indebtedness based on market conditions and the needs of our business.

We also have $1.05 billion of 9.50% senior secured notes due December 15, 2016 (the “notes”) outstanding. In December 2009, $1.0 billion of notes were issued and the net proceeds of the offering of the notes were primarily used to pay all the outstanding borrowings under our $575 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) and our $450 million junior term loan facility (the “Junior Term Loan Facility”). This financing transaction enabled us to gain more operating flexibility, in that several of our most restrictive covenants were eliminated. In February 2010, we issued an additional $50.0 million of notes and applied the net proceeds to repay amounts outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Our credit ratings are below “investment grade” and as such could impact both our ability to raise new funds as well as the interest rates on our future borrowings. Our ability to incur additional debt is restricted by our existing obligations. We were in compliance with covenants under our various credit facilities at December 31, 2010.

We believe our sources of liquidity will be sufficient to satisfy the anticipated cash requirements associated with our existing operations for at least the next twelve months. However, our future cash requirements could be higher than we currently expect as a result of various factors. Additionally, our ability to generate sufficient cash from our operating activities depends on our future performance, which is subject to general economic, political, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and future borrowings may not be available to us under our credit facilities in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. We may seek to sell assets to fund our liquidity needs but may not be able to do so.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies

(1)	Interest payments are based on interest rates in effect at December 31, 2010 and assume contractual amortization payments.
(2)	Purchase obligations reflect our commitments to purchase PVF products in the ordinary course of business. While our vendors often allow us to cancel these purchase orders without penalty, in certain cases cancellations may subject to cancellation fees or penalties, depending on the terms of the contract.

59

We historically have been an acquisitive company. We expect to fund future acquisitions primarily with cash flows from (i) borrowings, either the unused portion of our facilities or new debt issuances, (ii) cash provided by operations,and/or (iii) may also issue additional equity in connection with such acquisitions.

Description of Our Indebtedness

Revolving Credit Facility

McJunkin Red Man Corporation is the borrower under a $900 million Revolving Credit Facility. The description of the Revolving Credit Facility presented below gives effect to the amendment to the Revolving Credit Facility entered into in December 2009. See “Amendment” below.

Letter of Credit and Swingline Sublimits.  The Revolving Credit Facility provides for the extension of both revolving loans and swingline loans and the issuance of letters of credit. The aggregate principal amount of revolving loans outstanding at any time under the Revolving Credit Facility may not exceed $900 million, subject to adjustments based on changes in the borrowing base and less the sum of aggregate letters of credit outstanding and the aggregate principal amount of swingline loans outstanding, provided that the borrower may elect to increase the limit on the revolving loans outstanding as described in “Incremental Facilities” below. There is a $60 millionsub-limit on swingline loans and the total letters of credit outstanding at any time may not exceed $60 million.

Maturity.  The revolving loans have a maturity date of October 31, 2013 and the swingline loans have a maturity date of October 24, 2013. Any letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility will expire on October 24, 2013.

Borrowing Base.  Availability under the $900 million facility is subject to a borrowing base. The borrowing base under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time is equal to 85% of the sum of eligible accounts receivable and the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory of us and the guarantors of the facility, in each case subject to customary reserves and eligibility criteria. As of December 31, 2010, $286 million of borrowings were outstanding and, due to limitations imposed by the borrowing base, $360 million was available under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Interest Rate and Fees.  The revolving loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the borrower’s option, either (i) the greater of the prime rate and the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, plus in either case (a) 2.00% if the borrower’s consolidated total debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00, (b) 1.75% if such ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00 but less than 2.75 to 1.00, or (c) 1.50% if such ratio is less than 2.00 to 1.00; or (ii) LIBOR plus (a) 3.00% if the borrower’s consolidated total debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00, (b) 2.75% if such ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00 but less than 2.75 to 1.00, or (c) 2.50% if such ratio is less than 2.00 to 1.00. Interest on swingline loans is calculated on the basis of the rate described in clause (i) of the preceding sentence. At December 31, 2010, our consolidated total debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio was 8.8 to 1.0. The weighted average interest rate on the revolving loans outstanding at December 31, 2010 was 3.34%.

During the period from and including the effective date of the amendment (December 21, 2009) to but excluding the date that we delivered financial statements to the Revolving Credit Facility lenders for the fiscal quarter ending on March 31, 2010, the revolving loans bore interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, either the greater of the prime rate and the federal funds effective rate plus 2.50%, or LIBOR plus 3.00%, without regard to the ratio of our consolidated total debt to Consolidated EBITDA.

Additionally, the borrower is required to pay a commitment fee with respect to unutilized revolving credit commitments at a rate per annum equal to (i) 0.50% if the borrower’s consolidated total debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00 and (ii) 0.375% if such ratio is less than 2.75 to 1.00. The borrower is also required to pay fees on the stated amounts of outstanding letters of credit for the account of all revolving lenders at a per annum rate equal to (i) 2.875% if the borrower’s consolidated total debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00, (ii) 2.625% if such ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00 but less than 2.75 to 1.00, or (iii) 2.375% if such ratio is less than 2.00 to 1.00. The borrower is required to pay a fronting fee for the account of the letter of credit issuer in respect of each letter of credit issued by it at a rate for each day equal to 0.125% per annum on the average daily stated amount of such letter of credit. The borrower is also

60

obligated to pay directly to the letter of credit issuer upon each issuance of, drawing under,and/or amendment of, a letter of credit issued by it such amount as the borrower and the letter of credit issuer agree upon for issuances of, drawings under or amendments of, letters of credit issued by the letter of credit issuer. At December 31, 2010, our consolidated total debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio was 8.8 to 1.0.

Prepayments.  The borrower may voluntarily prepay revolving loans and swingline loans in whole or in part at the borrower’s option, in each case without premium or penalty. If at any time the aggregate amount of outstanding loans, unreimbursed letter of credit drawings and undrawn letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility exceeds the total revolving credit commitments and the borrowing base, the borrower will be required to repay outstanding loans or cash collateralize letters of credit in an aggregate amount equal to such excess, with no reduction of the commitment amount. If the amount available under the Revolving Credit Facility is less than 7% of total revolving credit commitments for any period of five consecutive business days, or an event of default pursuant to certain provisions of the Revolving Credit Facility has occurred, the borrower would be required to transfer funds from certain blocked accounts daily into a collection account under the exclusive control of the agent under the Revolving Credit Facility. While we will continue to draw down and repay the facility during the normal course of business, we currently have no plan to prepay the Revolving Credit Facility in full prior to its maturity date.

Incremental Facilities.  Subject to certain terms and conditions, the borrower may request an increase in revolving loan commitments. The increase in revolving loan commitments may not exceed the sum of (i) $150 million, plus (ii) only after the entire amount in the preceding clause (i) is drawn, an amount such that on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the new revolving credit commitments and certain other specified transactions, the secured leverage ratio will be no greater than 4.75 to 1.00. The borrower’s ability to borrow under such incremental facilities, however, would still be limited by the borrowing base. Any lender that is offered to provide all or part of the new revolving loan commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such new commitments. No lender is required to fund any of such amounts.

Collateral and Guarantors.  The obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by the borrower’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries and secured, subject to certain significant exceptions, by a senior security interest in personal property consisting of and arising from inventory and accounts receivable.

Covenants.  The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary covenants. This agreement, among other things, restricts, subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the borrower and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, create liens on assets, engage in mergers, consolidations or sales of assets, dispose of subsidiary interests, make investments, loans or advances, pay dividends, make payments with respect to subordinated indebtedness, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, change the business conducted by the borrower and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, and enter into agreements that restrict subsidiary dividends or limit the ability of the borrower or any subsidiary guarantor to create or keep liens for the benefit of the lenders with respect to the obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility requires the borrower to enter into interest rate swap, cap and hedge agreements for purposes of ensuring that no less than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the total indebtedness of the borrower and its subsidiaries then outstanding is either subject to such interest rate agreements or bears interest at a fixed rate. At December 31, 2010, we had 100% of our floating interest rate debt hedged with interest rate contracts.

Although the Revolving Credit Facility does not require the borrower to comply with any financial ratio maintenance covenants, if less than 7% of the then-outstanding credit commitments are available to be borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time, the borrower will not be permitted to borrow additional amounts unless its pro forma ratio of Consolidated EBITDA to consolidated fixed charges is at least 1.00 to 1.00.

Events of Default.  The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary events of default. The events of default include the failure to pay interest and principal when due, failure to pay fees and any other amounts owed under the Revolving Credit Facility when due, a breach of certain covenants in the Revolving Credit Facility, a breach of any representation or warranty contained in the Revolving Credit Facility in any material respect, defaults in payments with respect to any other indebtedness in excess of $30 million, defaults with respect to other indebtedness in excess of $30 million that have the effect of accelerating such indebtedness, bankruptcy, certain events relating to employee benefits plans, failure of a material subsidiary’s guarantee to remain in full force and effect, failure of the security agreement, pledge agreements pursuant to which the stock of any material subsidiary is pledged, or any

61

mortgage for the benefit of the lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility to remain in full force and effect, entry of one or more judgments or decrees against the borrower or its restricted subsidiaries involving a liability of $30 million or more in the aggregate, and the invalidation of subordination provisions of any document evidencing permitted additional debt having a principal amount in excess of $15 million. If an event of default were to occur with respect to this facility, the maturity of this facility would be accelerated to payable upon demand. The event of default on this facility would cause us to cross-default on the notes, whereby the note holders would have the right to accelerate the maturity of the notes to payable upon demand.

The Revolving Credit Facility also contains an event of default upon the occurrence of a change of control. Under the Revolving Credit Facility, a “change of control” shall have occurred if (i) the Goldman Sachs Funds and certain of their affiliates shall cease to beneficially own at least 35% of the voting power of the outstanding voting stock of the borrower (other than as a result of one or more widely distributed offerings of the common stock of the borrower or any direct or indirect parent of the borrower); or (ii) any person, entity or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) shall have acquired beneficial ownership of a percentage of the voting power of the outstanding voting stock of the borrower that exceeds the percentage of the voting power of such voting stock then beneficially owned, in the aggregate, by the Goldman Sachs Funds and certain of their affiliates, unless, in the case of either clause (i) or (ii) above, the Goldman Sachs Funds and certain of their affiliates have, at such time, the right or the ability by voting power, contract or otherwise to elect or designate for election at least a majority of the board of directors of the borrower; or (iii) a majority of the board of directors of the borrower ceases to consist of “continuing directors”, defined as individuals who (a) were members of the board of directors of the borrower on October 31, 2007, (b) who have been a member of the board of directors for at least 12 preceding months, (c) who have been nominated to be a member of the board of directors, directly or indirectly, by the Goldman Sachs Funds and certain of their affiliates or persons nominated by the Goldman Sachs Funds and certain of their affiliates or (d) who have been nominated to be a member of the board of directors by a majority of the other continuing directors then in office.

Amendment.  In connection with the issuance of the notes in December 2009, we amended the Revolving Credit Facility to permit the issuance of the notes and permit the payment of a one-time dividend by McJunkin Red Man Corporation to McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation for purposes of repaying the Junior Term Loan Facility. Pursuant to the amendment, we agreed to increase the interest rate margin on outstanding borrowings by an additional 1.50% per annum in all cases whether determined by reference to the greater of prime rate and the federal funds effective rate or to LIBOR, and for all levels of our ratio of consolidated total debt to Consolidated EBITDA. The amendment also fixed the applicable margin at a rate equivalent to the otherwise maximum margin during the period from and including the effective date of the amendment to but excluding the date that we delivered financial statements to the Revolving Credit Facility lenders for the fiscal quarter ending on March 31, 2010. We also agreed to increase the commitment fee under this facility by an additional 0.125% per annum for all levels of our ratio of consolidated total debt to Consolidated EBITDA.

Notes

On December 21, 2009, McJunkin Red Man Corporation issued $1.0 billion of 9.50% senior secured notes due December 15, 2016 (the “notes”). The proceeds of the offering of the notes were used to pay all the outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan Facility and the Junior Term Loan Facility. McJunkin Red Man Corporation issued an additional $50 million of notes on February 11, 2010.

The notes mature on December 15, 2016. Interest accrues at 9.50% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15, commencing on June 15, 2010. The notes are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation and all of the current and future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of McJunkin Red Man Corporation (other than certain excluded subsidiaries) and any of McJunkin Red Man Corporation’s future restricted subsidiaries that guarantee any indebtedness of McJunkin Red Man Corporation or any subsidiary guarantor, including the Revolving Credit Facility (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”).

Redemption and Repurchase.  At any time prior to December 15, 2012 and subject to certain conditions, the Issuer may, on any one or more occasions, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued under the indenture governing the notes (the “Indenture”) at a redemption price of 109.50%, plus accrued and

62

unpaid interest, with the cash proceeds of certain qualifying equity offerings. Additionally, at any time prior to December 15, 2012, the Issuer may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the notes at a redemption price equal to 100%, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, and plus a make-whole premium. On or after December 15, 2012, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the notes upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest:

Year	Percentage
2012		107.125	%
2013		104.750	%
2014		102.375	%
2015 and thereafter		100.000	%

Upon the occurrence of a change of control, the Issuer will be required to make an offer to repurchase each holder’s notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.

Covenants.  The Indenture contains covenants that limit the ability of McJunkin Red Man Corporation and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, issue certain preferred stock or disqualified capital stock, create liens, pay dividends or make other restricted payments, make certain payments on debt that is subordinated or secured on a basis junior to the notes, make investments, sell assets, create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to McJunkin Red Man Corporation from restricted subsidiaries, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of McJunkin Red Man Corporation’s assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, and designate subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.

In connection with issuing the notes, we entered into registration rights agreements in which we agreed to file a registration statement which will permit the Issuer to offer to exchange the notes for a new issue of identical debt securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933. We agreed to file a registration statement for the exchange offer by April 5, 2011 (the “Filing Deadline”), and to use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective within 110 days after the Filing Deadline (the “Effectiveness Deadline”). The exchange offer is required to be completed within 30 business days of the Effectiveness Deadline. We also agreed to provide a shelf registration statement to cover resales of the notes under certain circumstances.

Collateral.  The notes and the guarantees by the Subsidiary Guarantors are secured on a senior basis (subject to permitted prior liens), together with any other notes issued under the Indenture or other debt that is secured equally and ratably with the notes, subject to certain conditions (“Priority Lien Obligations”), equally and ratably by security interests granted to the collateral trustee in all Notes Priority Collateral (as such term is defined in the Indenture) from time to time owned by McJunkin Red Man Corporation or the Subsidiary Guarantors. The guarantee of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation of the notes is not secured. The Notes Priority Collateral generally comprises substantially all of McJunkin Red Man Corporation’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ tangible and intangible assets, other than specified excluded assets.

The notes and the guarantees by the Subsidiary Guarantors are also secured on a junior basis (subject to the lien to secure the Revolving Credit Facility and other permitted prior liens) by security interests granted to the collateral trustee in all ABL Priority Collateral (as such term is defined in the Indenture) from time to time owned by McJunkin Red Man Corporation or the Subsidiary Guarantors. Subject to certain exceptions, the ABL Priority Collateral generally comprises substantially all of McJunkin Red Man Corporation’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ accounts receivable, inventory, general intangibles and other assets relating to the foregoing, deposit and securities accounts, and proceeds and products of the foregoing, other than specified excluded assets. Assets owned by the Issuer’s non-guarantor subsidiaries and by McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation are not part of the collateral securing the notes or the Revolving Credit Facility.

Midfield Supply ULC CAD$80 Million (USD$80 million) Revolving Credit Facility

One of our subsidiaries, Midfield Supply ULC (“Midfield”), is the borrower under a CAD$80 million (USD$80 million) revolving credit facility (the “Midfield Revolving Credit Facility”) with Bank of America, N.A. and certain other lenders from time to time parties thereto.

On November 18, 2009, the facility was amended to, among other things, reduce the total revolving credit commitments under the facility from CAD$150 million (USD$150 million) to CAD$60 million (USD$60 million), extend the maturity from November 2, 2010 to November 18, 2012 and change the pricing terms of the facility. On September 10, 2010, the facility was amended to defer compliance with a leverage ratio covenant until March 31, 2011 and to modify the calculation of a fixed charge covenant ratio for the compliance period ended September 30, 2010. On October 20, 2010, the facility was amended to increase the maximum limit of the facility to CAD$80 million (USD$80 million).

The facility provides for the extension of up to CAD$80 million (USD$80 million) in revolving loans, subject to adjustments based on the borrowing base and less the aggregate letters of credit outstanding under the facility. Letters of credit may be issued under the facility subject to certain conditions, including a CAD$10 million (USD$10 million)sub-limit. The revolving loans have a maturity date of November 18, 2012. All letters of credit issued under the facility must expire at least 20 business days prior to November 18, 2012.

Borrowing Base.  Availability under the Midfield Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base that at any time is equal to the lesser of 60% of eligible inventory and 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory, subject to customary reserves and eligibility criteria. As of December 31, 2010, USD$2 million of borrowings were outstanding and USD$69 million were available under the Midfield Revolving Credit Facility.

Interest Rate and Fees.  From the period from November 18, 2009 to December 31, 2009, the revolving loans bore interest at a rate equal to either (i) the Canadian prime rate plus 2.00% or (ii) the greater of 2.00% and the rate of interest per annum equal to the rates applicable to Canadian Dollar Bankers’ Acceptances having a comparable term as the proposed loan displayed on the “CDOR Page” of Reuter Monitor Money Rates Service (the “BA Equivalent Rate”), plus 3.50%. After December 31, 2009, the revolving loans bear interest at a rate equal to either:

•  the Canadian prime rate, plus (a) 2.25% if the “average daily availability” (as defined in the loan and security agreement for the facility) for the previous fiscal quarter was less than CAD$30 million (US$30 million), (b) 2.00% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to CAD$30 million (USD$30 million) but less than CAD$60 million (USD$60 million), or (c) 1.75% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to CAD$60 million (USD$60 million), or, at the borrower’s option,

•  the BA Equivalent Rate plus (a) 3.75% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was less than CAD$30 million (USD$30 million), (b) 3.50% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to CAD$30 million (USD$30 million) but less than CAD$60 million (USD$60 million), or (c) 3.25% if the if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to CAD$60 million (USD$60 million).

At December 31, 2010, the weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Midfield Revolving Credit Facility was 5.00%.

The borrower must pay a monthly unused line fee with respect to unutilized revolving loan commitments equal to (i) 1.00% if the outstanding amount of borrowings under the facility for the immediately preceding fiscal quarter are greater than 50% of the revolving loan commitments, or (ii) 1.25% if otherwise. The borrower must pay a monthly fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum of the stated amount of letters of credit issued and must also pay a monthly fee to the agent on the average daily stated amount of letters of credit issued equal to (i) 3.75% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was less than CAD$30 million (USD$30 million), (ii) 3.50% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to CAD$30 million (USD$30 million) but less than CAD$60 million (USD$60 million), or (iii) 3.25% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to CAD$60 million (USD$60 million).

64

Prepayments.  The borrower may prepay the revolving loans from time to time without premium or penalty. While we will continue to draw down and repay the facility during the normal course of business, we currently have no plan to prepay the revolving loans in full prior to its maturity date.

Collateral and Guarantors.  The Midfield Revolving Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the personal property of Midfield Supply ULC and its subsidiary guarantors, Mega Production Testing Inc. and Hagan Oilfield Supply Ltd.

Certain Covenants and Events of Default.  The Midfield Revolving Credit Facility contains customary covenants. These agreements, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the borrower and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, create liens on assets, make distributions, make investments, sell, lease or transfer assets, make loans or advances, pay certain debt, amalgamate, merge, combine or consolidate with another entity, enter into certain types of restrictive agreements, engage in any business other than the business conducted by the borrower and its subsidiaries on November 18, 2009, enter into transactions with affiliates, become a party to certain employee benefit plans, enter into certain amendments with respect to subordinated debt, make acquisitions, enter into transactions which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect or cause a default, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, and terminate certain agreements.

The Midfield Revolving Credit Facility requires the borrower to maintain Canadian Adjusted EBITDA (as such term is defined in the loan and security agreement for the facility) of (i) CAD$1.5 million for the two fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2009, (ii) CAD$4.8 million for the three fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2010 and (iii) CAD$3.7 million for the four fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2010. Midfield’s Adjusted EBITDA was $5.0 million, $6.3 million and $5.5 million for those periods, respectively. The facility also requires the borrower, beginning with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2011, to (i) maintain a leverage ratio of no greater than 3.50 to 1.00 and (ii) maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.15 to 1.00. The facility also prohibits the borrower and its subsidiaries from making capital expenditures in excess of CAD$10 million (USD$10 million) in the aggregate during any fiscal year, subject to exceptions for certain expenditures and provided that if the actual amount of capital expenditures made in any fiscal year is less than the amount permitted to be made in such fiscal year, up to CAD$0.25 million (USD$0.25 million) of such excess may be carried forward and used to make capital expenditures in the succeeding fiscal year. During the year ended December 31, 2010, Midfield’s capital expenditures totaled CAD$0.7 million (USD$0.7 million).

The Midfield Revolving Credit Facility contains customary events of default. The events of default include, among others, the failure to pay interest, principal and other obligations under the facility’s loan documents when due, a breach of any representation or warranty contained in the loan documents, breaches of certain covenants, the failure of any loan document to remain in full force and effect, a default with respect to other indebtedness in excess of CAD$0.25 million (USD$0.25 million) if the other indebtedness may be accelerated due to such default, judgments against the borrower and its subsidiaries in excess of CAD$0.25 million (USD$0.25 million) in the aggregate, the occurrence of any loss or damage with respect to the collateral if the amount not covered by insurance exceeds CAD$0.50 million (USD$0.50 million), cessation or governmental restraint of a material part of the borrower’s or a subsidiary’s business, insolvency, certain events related to benefits plans, the criminal indictment of a senior officer of the borrower or a guarantor or the conviction of a senior officer of the borrower or a guarantor of certain crimes, an amendment to the shareholders agreement among Midfield Supply ULC, the entity now known as McJunkin Red Man Canada Ltd. and Midfield Holdings (Alberta) Ltd. without the prior written consent of Bank of America, N.A., a “change of control” (as defined in the loan and security agreement for the facility) occurs, and any event or condition that has a material adverse effect on the borrower or a guarantor. If an event of default were to occur with respect to this facility, Bank of America, N.A. would have the right to accelerate the maturity of this facility to payable upon demand. The event of default on this facility would cause us to cross-default on the Revolving Credit Facility, which in turn would cause us to cross-default on the notes. In each instance of cross-default, the debt holders would have the right to accelerate the maturity of the respective obligation to payable upon demand.

Midfield Supply ULC CAD$15 Million (USD$15 Million) Facility

One of our subsidiaries, Midfield Supply ULC (“Midfield”), is also the borrower under a CAD$15 million (USD$15 million) credit facility with Alberta Treasury Branches. The facility provides for revolving loans until July 31, 2011 (subject to extension under certain circumstances), after which the revolving loans outstanding under the facility convert to term loans that mature on July 31, 2012 (subject to extension under certain circumstances). The facility is secured by substantially all of the real property and equipment of Midfield Supply ULC and its subsidiary guarantors. The facility contains the same customary covenants and events of default as the Midfield Revolving Credit Facility, as well as its ratio of tangible asset value to borrowings outstanding must be at least 2.00 to 1.00 (at December 31, 2010, this ratio was 2.03 to 1.00). At December 31, 2010, USD$14 million was outstanding under this facility and the weighted average interest rate on borrowings was 5.86%.

On September 16, 2010, we amended our Midfield term loan facility to defer compliance with a leverage covenant until March 31, 2011 and to defer compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio until December 31, 2010.

The Midfield CAD$15 million (USD$15 million) facility and the Midfield CAD$80 million (USD$80 million) facility are subject to an intercreditor agreement which relates to, among other things, priority of liens and proceeds of sale of collateral.

At December 31, 2010, we were in compliance with these covenants, as amended.

Transmark Facility

Transmark Fcx Group B.V. and its subsidiaries are parties to a credit facility with HSBC Bank PLC, dated September 17, 2010 (the “Transmark Facility”), which consists of a €60 million (USD$80 million) revolving credit facility, with a €20 million (USD$27 million) sublimit on letters of credit. At December 31, 2010, USD$23 million was outstanding on the revolving credit facility, and USD$46 million was available under the facility and the weighted average interest rate on borrowings was 2.61%.

The facility will be reduced by €10 million (USD$13 million) over its term, as follows: €0.5 million (USD$0.7 million) per quarter starting in the fourth quarter of 2010 through the third quarter of 2012, and then by €1.5 million (USD$2.0 million) per quarter, starting in the fourth quarter of 2012 through the third quarter of 2013.

The facility bears interest at LIBOR or, in relation to any loan in Euros, EURIBOR, plus an applicable margin. The margin is calculated according to the following table:

Leverage Ratio	Margin
Less than or equal to 0.75:1		1.50	%
Greater than 0.75:1, but less than or equal to 1.00:1		1.75	%
Greater than 1.00:1, but less than or equal to 1.50:1		2.00	%
Greater than 1.50:1, but less than or equal to 2.00:1		2.25	%
Greater than 2.00:1		2.50	%

The facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of MRC Transmark and its wholly owned subsidiaries.

The facility also requires MRC Transmark to maintain: (i) an interest coverage ratio not less than 3.50:1 and (ii) a leverage ratio not to exceed 2.50:1. We were in compliance with these covenants as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Other Commitments

In the normal course of business with customers, vendors and others, we are contingently liable for performance under standby letters of credit and bid, performance and surety bonds. We were contingently liable for approximately $16 million of standby letters of credit and bid, performance and surety bonds at December 31, 2010. Management does not expect any material amounts to be drawn on these instruments.

Certain of our international subsidiaries also have trade guarantees given by bankers on their behalf. The amount of these guarantees at December 31, 2010 was approximately €6 million (USD $8 million).

Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various legal proceedings and claims, both as a plaintiff and a defendant, which arise in the ordinary course of business. These legal proceedings include claims where we are named as a defendant in lawsuits brought against a large number of entities by individuals seeking damages for injuries allegedly caused by certain products containing asbestos. As of December 31, 2010, we are a defendant in lawsuits involving approximately 940 such claims. Each claim involves allegations of exposure to asbestos-containing materials by a single individual or an individual, his or her spouseand/or family members. The complaints typically name many other defendants. In a majority of these lawsuits, little or no information is known regarding the nature of the plaintiff’s alleged injuries or their connection with the products distributed by us. Through December 31, 2010, lawsuits involving over 11,700 claims have been brought against us. No asbestos lawsuit has resulted in a judgment against us to date, with the majority being settled, dismissed or otherwise resolved. In total, since the first asbestos claim brought against us through December 31, 2010, approximately $1.2 million has been paid to asbestos claimants in connection with settlements of claims against us without regard to insurance recoveries. Of this amount, approximately $1.0 million has been paid to settle claims alleging mesothelioma, $0.2 million for claims alleging lung cancer and $0.1 million for non-malignant claims. The following chart summarizes, for each year since 2006, the approximate number of pending claims, new claims, settled claims, dismissed claims, and approximate total settlement payments, average settlement amount and total defense costs:

With the assistance of accounting and financial consultants and our asbestos litigation counsel, we annually conduct analyses of our asbestos-related litigation in order to estimate the adequacy of the reserve for pending and probable asbestos-related claims. These analyses consist of separately estimating our reserve with respect to pending claims (both those scheduled for trial and those for which a trial date had not been scheduled), mass filings (including lawsuits brought in West Virginia each involving many — in some cases over a hundred — plaintiffs, which include little information regarding the nature of each plaintiff’s claim and historically have rarely resulted in any payments to plaintiff) and probable future claims. A key element of the analysis is categorizing our claims by the type of disease alleged by the plaintiffs and developing “benchmark” estimated settlement values for each claim category based on our historical settlement experience. These estimated settlement values are applied to each of our pending individual claims. With respect to pending claims where the disease type is unknown, the outcome is projected based on the historic ratio of disease types among filed claims (or “disease mix”) and dismissal rate. The reserve with respect to mass filings is estimated by determining the number of individual plaintiffs included in the mass filings likely to have claims resulting in settlements based on our historical experience with mass filings. Finally, probable claims expected to be asserted against us over the next fifteen years are estimated based on public health estimates of future incidences of certain asbestos-related diseases in the general U.S. population. Estimated settlement values are applied to those projected claims. Our annual assessment, dated September 30, 2010, projected that our payments to asbestos claimants over the next fifteen years are estimated to range from $5 million to $10 million. Given these estimates and existing insurance coverage that historically has been available to cover substantial portions of our past payments to claimants and defense costs, we believe that our current accruals and associated estimates relating to pending and probable asbestos-related litigation likely to be asserted over the next

67

fifteen years are currently adequate. Our belief that our accruals and associated estimates are currently adequate, however, relies on a number of significant assumptions, including:

•  That our future settlement payments, disease mix and dismissal rates will be materially consistent with historic experience;

•  That future incidences of asbestos-related diseases in the U.S. will be materially consistent with current public health estimates;

•  That the rates at which future asbestos-related mesothelioma incidences result in compensable claims filings against us will be materially consistent with its historic experience;

•  That insurance recoveries for settlement payments and defense costs will be materially consistent with historic experience;

•  That legal standards (and the interpretation of these standards) applicable to asbestos litigation will not change in material respects;

•  That there are no materially negative developments in the claims pending against us; and

•  That key co-defendants in current and future claims remain solvent.

If any of these assumptions prove to be materially different in light of future developments, liabilities related to asbestos-related litigation may be materially different than amounts accruedand/or estimated. Further, while we anticipate that additional claims will be filed in the future, we are unable to predict with any certainty the number, timing and magnitude of such future claims.

Also, there is a possibility that resolution of certain legal contingencies for which there are no liabilities recorded could result in a loss. Management is not able to estimate the amount of such loss, if any. However, in our opinion, after consultation with counsel, the ultimate resolution of all pending matters is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position, although it is possible that such resolutions could have a material adverse impact on results of operations in the period of resolution.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any “off-balance sheet arrangements” as such term is defined within the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In order to apply these principles, management must make judgments and assumptions and develop estimates based on the best available information at the time. Actual results may differ based on the accuracy of the information utilized and subsequent events. Our accounting policies are described in the notes to our audited financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. These critical accounting policies could materially affect the amounts recorded in our financial statements. We believe the following describes significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:  We evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for losses on receivables based upon periodic evaluation of accounts that may have a higher credit risk using information available about the customer and other relevant data. This formal analysis is inherently subjective and requires us to make significant estimates of factors affecting doubtful accounts, including customer-specific information, current economic conditions, volume, growth and composition of the account, and other factors such as financial statements, news reports and published credit ratings. The amount of the allowance for the remainder of the trade balance is not evaluated individually, but is based upon historical loss experience, adjusted for current economic conditions. Because this process is subjective and based on estimates, ultimate losses may differ materially from those estimates. During 2010 we reduced our allowance for doubtful accounts by approximately $2 million, as the economic conditions in which we, and our customers, operate improved. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $4.5 million and $8.8 million, or 0.7% and 1.7% of gross accounts receivable.

68

Inventories:  Our inventories are generally valued at the lower of cost (principallylast-in, first-out method (“LIFO”)) or market. We record an estimate each month, if necessary, for the expected annual effect of inflation and estimated year-end inventory volume. These estimates are adjusted to actual results determined at year-end. This practice excludes certain inventories, which are held outside of the U.S., totaling $140 million (approximately 18% of the consolidated total) at December 31, 2010, which were valued at the lower of weighted-average cost or market.

Under the LIFO inventory valuation method, changes in the cost of inventory are recognized in cost of sales in the current period even though these costs may have been incurred at significantly different values. Since the company values most of its inventory using the LIFO inventory costing methodology, a rise in inventory costs has a negative effect on operating results, while, conversely, a fall in inventory costs results in a benefit to operating results. In a period of rising prices, cost of sales recognized under LIFO is generally higher than the cash costs incurred to acquire the inventory sold. Conversely, in a period of declining prices, costs of sales recognized under LIFO are generally lower than cash costs of the inventory sold.

The LIFO inventory valuation methodology is not utilized by many of the companies with which we compete, including foreign competitors. As such, our results of operations may not be comparable to those of our competitors during periods of volatile material costs due, in part, to the differences between the LIFO inventory valuation method and other acceptable inventory valuation methods.

During 2008, in addition to an increase in sales volumes, we experienced inflation in the cost of our products of approximately 21% on a weighted average basis. The increase in our tubular products was even more significant, with 2008 inflation of approximately 28%. In 2009, this trend reversed, with our overall product mix experiencing 15% deflation, with tubular products deflating approximately 20%. As a result of lengthening lead times from our manufacturers during mid to late 2008, we continued to receive inventory during the fourth quarter and into the first quarter of 2009 that was ordered to support the greater demand during mid to late 2008. The resulting inventory overstock, coupled with the deflation we experienced, resulted in the cost of our inventory balance being above market value. As a result of ourlower-of-cost-or-market assessment, we recorded a $46.5 million write-down of our inventory during the year ended December 31, 2009. There were no significant write-downs during the year ended December 31, 2010.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:  Our long-lived assets consist primarily of amortizable intangible assets, which comprise approximately 18% of our total assets. These assets are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We make significant judgments and estimates in both calculating the fair value of these assets, as well as determining their estimated useful lives.

The carrying value of these assets is subject to an impairment test when events or circumstances indicate a possible impairment. When events or circumstances indicate a possible impairment, we assess recoverability from future operations using an undiscounted cash flow analysis, derived from the lowest appropriate asset group. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, we would recognize an impairment charge to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the fair value, which is determined based on a discounted cash flow analysis. During 2009, as the key factors affecting our business declined and our profitability progressively declined throughout the year, we determined that an impairment indicator existed and performed an impairment test on our long-lived assets. This test required us to make forecasts of our future operating results, the extent and timing of future cash flows, working capital, profitability and growth trends. We performed our impairment test as of October 27, 2009 which did not result in an impairment charge. During 2010, no indicators of impairment existed. While we believe our assumptions and estimates are reasonable, the actual results may differ materially from the projected results.

Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets:  Our goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets comprise approximately 29% of our total assets. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Historically, we have evaluated the company as one reporting unit and have elected to perform our annual tests for indications of goodwill impairment as of the end of October of each year, updating on an interim basis should indications of impairment exist. As a result of our Transmark acquisition, which closed on October 30, 2009, we began evaluating goodwill for impairment at two reporting units that mirror our two reportable segments (North America and International).

69

The goodwill impairment test compares the carrying value of the reporting unit that has the goodwill with the estimated fair value of that reporting unit. If the carrying value is more than the estimated fair value, the second step is performed, whereby we calculate the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit from the estimated fair value of the reporting unit. Impairment losses are recognized to the extent that recorded goodwill exceeds implied goodwill. Our impairment methodology uses discounted cash flow and multiples of cash earnings valuation techniques, plus valuation comparisons to similar businesses. These valuation methods require us to make certain assumptions and estimates regarding future operating results, the extent and timing of future cash flows, working capital, sales prices, profitability, discount rates and growth trends. As a result of our impairment test, we recognized a $309.9 million pre-tax impairment charge during the year ended December 31, 2009. No such impairment charges were recognized during the year ended December 31, 2010. While we believe that such assumptions and estimates are reasonable, the actual results may differ materially from the projected results.

Income Taxes:  Our tax provision is based upon our expected taxable income and statutory rates in effect in each country in which we operate. This provision involves the interpretation of the respective tax laws in each country in which we operate, as well as significant judgments regarding future events, such as the amount, timing and character of income, deductions and tax credits. Changes in tax laws, regulations and our profitability in each respective country could impact our tax liability for any given year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the tax rate expected to be in effect when the taxes will actually be paid or refunds received. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. Each reporting period, we assess the likelihood that we will be able to recover our deferred tax assets. If recovery is not likely, we record a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets that we believe will not be recoverable. The ultimate recovery of our deferred tax assets is dependent on various factors and is subject to change. The benefit of an uncertain tax position that meets the “probable recognition threshold” is recognized in the financial statements. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an amendment to ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, related to the accounting for revenue in arrangements with multiple deliverables including how the arrangement consideration is allocated among delivered and undelivered items of the arrangement. Among the amendments, this standard eliminated the use of the residual method for allocating arrangement considerations and requires an entity to allocate the overall consideration to each deliverable based on an estimated selling price of each individual deliverable in the arrangement in the absence of having vendor-specific objective evidence or other third-party evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. This standard also provides further guidance on how to determine a separate unit of accounting in a multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement and expands the disclosure requirements about the judgments made in applying the estimated selling price method and how those judgments affect the timing or amount of revenue recognition. This standard will become effective on January 1, 2011. We do not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)No. 2010-06,Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, an amendment to ASC Topic 820,Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures. This amendment will require us to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers and present separate information for Level 3 activity pertaining to gross purchases, sales, issuances and settlements. This amendment is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Our adoption of this amendment, pertaining to the Level 1 and Level 2 disclosures, on January 1, 2010 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We do not believe that the Level 3 amendment disclosures will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, FASB issued ASUNo. 2010-09,Amendments to Certain Recognition and DisclosureRequirements, an amendment to ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events, that removed the requirements for SEC

70

registrants to disclose the date through which subsequent events were evaluated. There were no changes to the accounting for or disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. Our adoption of this amendment on January 1, 2010 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, FASB issued ASUNo. 2010-20,Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, which amended ASC Topic 310,Receivables. This amendment enhances the disclosure requirements regarding the nature of credit risk inherent in our portfolio of accounts receivable, how that risk is assessed in arriving at our allowance for doubtful accounts and the changes and reasons for those changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts. The adoption of this amendment did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, FASB issued ASUNo. 2010-29,Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations, which amended ASC Topic 805,Business Combinations. This ASU amended certain existing and added additional pro forma disclosure requirements. The standard will become effective on January 1, 2011. We do not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our consolidation financial statements.

BUSINESS

General

We are the largest global distributor of pipe, valves and fittings (“PVF”) and related products and services to the energy industry based on sales and hold the leading position in our industry across each of the upstream (exploration, production, and extraction of underground oil and natural gas), midstream (gathering and transmission of oil and natural gas, natural gas utilities, and the storage and distribution of oil and natural gas) and downstream (crude oil refining, petrochemical processing and general industrials) end markets. We currently serve our customers through over 400 global service locations, including over 180 branches, 6 distribution centers and over 190 pipe yards located in the most active oil and natural gas regions in North America and over 30 branch locations throughout Europe, Asia and Australasia.

McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation was incorporated in Delaware on November 20, 2006 and McJunkin Red Man Corporation was incorporated in West Virginia on March 21, 1922 and was reincorporated in Delaware on June 14, 2010. Our principal executive office is located at 2 Houston Center, 909 Fannin, Suite 3100, Houston, Texas 77010. We also have corporate offices located at 835 Hillcrest Drive, Charleston, West Virginia 25311 and 8023 East 63rd Place, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74133. Our telephone number is(877) 294-7574. Our website address iswww.mrcpvf.com. Information contained on our website is expressly not incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

Our business is segregated into two operating segments, one consisting of our North American operations and one consisting of our international operations. These segments represent our business of providing PVF and related products and services to the energy and industrial sectors, across each of the upstream, midstream and downstream markets.

Financial information regarding our reportable segments appears in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in Note 13 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this prospectus.

Our Strengths

Global Market Leader with Worldwide Branch Network and Significant Scale.  We are the leading global distributor of PVF and related products to the energy industry based on sales, with over twice the sales of our nearest competitor in 2010. We have a significant market presence through a global network of over 400 service locations worldwide providing us with substantial economies of scale, global reach and product breadth that we believe makes us a more effective competitor. The benefits of our size and extensive international presence include: (1) the ability to act as a single-source supplier to large, multi-national customers operating across all segments of the global energy industry; (2) the ability to commit significant financial resources to further develop our operating infrastructure, including our information systems, and provide a strong platform for future expansion; (3) volume purchasing benefits from our suppliers; (4) an ability to leverage our extensive global inventory coverage to provide greater overall breadth and depth of product offerings; (5) the ability to attract and retain effective managers and salespeople; and (6) a business model exhibiting a high degree of operating leverage. Our presence and scale have also enabled us to establish an efficient supply chain and logistics platform, allowing us to better serve our customers and further differentiate us from our competitors.

The following chart summarizes our revenue by geography for the year ended December 31, 2010:

High Level of Integration and MRO Contracts with a Blue Chip Customer Base.  We have a diversified customer base with over 10,000 active customers and serve as the sole or primary supplier in all end markets or in specified end markets or geographies for many of our customers. Our top ten customers, with whom we have had relationships for more than 20 years on average, accounted for approximately half of our sales for 2010, and no single customer accounted for more than 5% of sales in either period. We enjoy fully integrated relationships, including interconnected technology systems and daily communication, with many of our customers and we provide an extensive range of integrated and outsourced supply services, allowing us to market a “total transaction cost” concept as opposed to individual product prices. We provide such services as multiple daily deliveries, zone stores management, valve tagging, truck stocking and significant system support for tracking and replenishing inventory, which we believe results in deeply integrated customer relationships. We sell products to many of our customers through multi-year MRO contracts which are typically renegotiated every three to five years. Although there are typically no guaranteed minimum purchase amounts under these contracts, these MRO customers, representing approximately two-thirds of our 2010 sales, provide a relatively stable revenue stream and help mitigate against industry downturns. We believe we have been able to retain customers by ensuring a high level of service and integration. Furthermore, during 2010 we signed several new MRO contracts, including both contracts with new customers that displace competitors and contracts with existing customers that broaden existing customer relationships.

Business and Geographic Diversification in High-Growth Areas.  We are well diversified across the upstream, midstream and downstream operations of the energy industry, as well as through our participation in selected industrial end markets. During the year ended December 31, 2010, we generated approximately 45% of our sales in the upstream sector, 23% in the midstream sector, and 32% in the downstream, industrial and other energy end markets. This diversification affords us some measure of protection in the event of a downturn in any one end market while providing us the ability to offer a “one stop” solution for our integrated energy customers. In North America, our more than 180 branches are located near major hydrocarbon and refining regions, including rapidly expanding oil and natural gas E&P areas such as the Bakken, Barnett, Fayetteville, Haynesville and Marcellus shales, where MRO expenditures for PVF are typically over five times that of MRO expenditures for PVF in conventional upstream areas. Outside North America, we have a network of over 30 branch locations throughout Europe, Asia and Australasia. Our geographic diversity enhances our ability to quickly respond to customers worldwide, gives us a strong presence in these high growth areas and reduces our exposure to a downturn in any one region.

For the years ended December 31, 2008, December 31, 2009, and December 31, 2010, the breakdown of our revenue by end market was as follows:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2008			2009			2010
Upstream		45	%		44	%		45	%
Midstream		22	%		24	%		22	%
Downstream and industrial		33	%		32	%		33	%
		100	%		100	%		100	%

The shift to midstream markets in the year ended December 31, 2009 is a direct result of our acquisition of LaBarge Pipe & Steel Company (“LaBarge”) in October 2008 (the “LaBarge Acquisition”), which increased our presence in the midstream market. Our acquisition of Transmark in October 2009 increased our presence in the downstream and industrial market.

Strategic Supplier Relationships.  We have extensive relationships with our suppliers and have key supplier relationships dating back in certain instances over 60 years. Approximately 39% of our total purchases for the year ended December 31, 2010 were from our top ten suppliers. We believe our customers view us as an industry leader for the formal processes we use to evaluate vendor performance and product quality. We employ individuals, certified by the International Registry of Certificated Auditors, who specialize in conducting manufacturer assessments both domestically and internationally. Our Supplier Registration Process (“SRP”), which allows us to maintain the MRC Approved Supplier List (“MRC ASL”), serves as a significant strategic advantage to us in

75

developing, maintaining and institutionalizing key supplier relationships. For our suppliers, being included on the MRC ASL represents an opportunity for them to increase their product sales to our customers. The SRP also adds value to our customers, as they collaborate with us regarding specific manufacturer performance, our past experiences with products and the results of ouron-site supplier assessments. Having a timely, uninterrupted supply of those mission critical products from approved vendors is an essential part of our customers’day-to-day operations and we work to fulfill that need through our SRP.

An IT Platform Focused on Customer Service.  Our business is supported by our integrated, scalable, customer-linked and highly customized information systems. These systems and our more than 3,600 employees (including Transmark) are linked by a wide area network. We recently combined our North American business operations onto one legacy enterprise server-based sales, inventory & management system (“SIMS”). This enabled real-time access to our business resources, including customer order processing, purchasing and material requests, distribution requirements planning, warehousing and receiving, inventory control and accounting and financial functions. Significant elements of our systems include firm-wide pricing controls resulting in disciplined pricing strategies, advanced scanning and customized bar-coding capabilities allowing for efficient warehousing activities at customer as well as our own locations, and significant levels of customer- specific integrations. We believe that the customized integration of our customers’ systems into our own information systems has increased customer retention by reducing our customers’ expenses, thus creating switching costs when comparing us to alternative sources of supply. Typically, smaller regional and local competitors do not have IT capabilities that are as advanced as ours.

Highly Efficient, Flexible Operating Structure Drives Significant Free Cash Flow Generation.  We place a particular emphasis on practicing financial discipline as evidenced by our strong focus on return on assets, minimal routine capital expenditures and high free cash flow generation. Our disciplined cost control, coupled with our active asset management strategies, result in a business model exhibiting a high degree of operating leverage. As is typical with the flexibility associated with a distribution operating model, our variable cost base includes substantially all of our cost of goods sold and a large portion of our operating costs. Furthermore, our capital expenditures were approximately 0.3% of our sales for the year ended December 31, 2010. This cost structure allows us to adjust to changing industry dynamics and, as a result, during periods of decreased sales activity, we typically generate significant free cash flow as our costs are reduced and working capital contracts. During the year ended December 31, 2010, we generated approximately $101 million of free cash flow, which we define as net cash provided by operations, less capital expenditures.

Experienced and Motivated Management Team.  Our senior management team has an average of approximately 30 years of experience (over 225 years in total) in the oilfield and industrial supply business, the majority of which has been with McJunkin Red Man or its predecessors. Employees own approximately 7% of our company, including approximately 4% that is owned by senior management, either directly or indirectly through their equity interests in PVF Holdings LLC, our indirect parent company. We also seek to incentivize and align management with shareholder interests through equity-linked compensation plans. Furthermore, executive compensation is based on profitability andreturn-on-investment targets which we believe drives accountability and further aligns the organization with our shareholders.

Our Business Strategy

Our goal is to grow our market position as the largest global distributor of PVF and related products to the energy industry. Our strategy is focused on pursuing growth by increasing organic market share and growing our business with current customers, expanding into new geographies and end markets, increasing recurring revenues through integrated supply, maintenance, repair and operations (“MRO”) and project business, continuing to increase our operational efficiency and making and integrating strategic acquisitions. We also seek to extend our current North American MRO contracts internationally, as well as cross-sell certain products, most notably pipe, flanges, fittings and other products (“PFF”) into MRC Transmark’s existing customer base, branch network and valve-focused platform. We will also look at future complementary PFF distribution acquisitions that would supplement MRC Transmark’s valve leadership position, and we will look at future “bolt-on” acquisitions in North America that broaden our geographic footprint or expand our product offering to our major customers.

Increase Organic Market Share and Grow Business with Current Customers.  We are committed to expanding upon existing deep relationships with our current customer base while at the same time striving to

76

secure new customers. To accomplish this, we are focused on providing a global “one stop” PVF procurement solution across the upstream, midstream and downstream sectors of the energy industry, maximizing cross-selling opportunities by leveraging our extensive product offering and increasing our penetration of existing customers’ new multi-year projects.

The migration of existing customer relationships to sole or primary sourcing arrangements is a core strategic focus. We seek to position ourselves as the sole or primary provider of a broad complement of PVF products and services for a particular customer, often by end marketand/or geography, or in certain instances across all of a customer’s global upstream, midstream and downstream operations. Several of our largest customers have recently switched to sole or primary sourcing contracts with us. Additionally, we believe that significant opportunities exist to expand our deep customer and supplier relationships and thereby increase our market share. There is also a significant opportunity to extend our current North American MRO contracts internationally as well as cross-sell certain products, most notably pipe, flanges, fittings and other products, into Transmark’s existing customer base, branch network and valve-focused product platform.

We also aim to increase our penetration of our existing customers’ new projects. For example, while we often provide nearly 100% of the PVF products for certain customers under MRO contracts, increased penetration of those customers’ new downstream and midstream projects remains a strategic priority. Initiatives are in place to deepen relationships with engineering and construction firms and to extend our product offering into certain niches.

Increase Recurring Revenues through Integrated Supply, MRO and Project Contracts.  We have entered into and continue to pursue integrated supply, MRO and project contracts with certain of our customers. Under these arrangements, we are typically the sole or primary source provider of the upstream, midstream,and/or downstream requirements of our customers. In certain instances we are the sole or primary source provider for our customers across all the energy sectorsand/or North American geographies within which the customer operates and we will seek to extend these contracts internationally as a result of the Transmark acquisition.

Our customers have, over time, increasingly moved toward centralized PVF procurement management at the corporate level rather than at individual local units. While these developments are partly due to significant consolidation among our customer base, sole or primary sourcing arrangements allow customers to focus on their core operations and provide economic benefits by generating immediate savings for the customer through administrative cost and working capital reductions, while providing for increased volumes, more stable revenue streams and longer term visbility for us. We believe we are well positioned to obtain these arrangements due to our (1) geographically diverse and strategically located global branch network, (2) experience, technical expertise and reputation for premier customer service operating across all segments of the energy industry, (3) breadth of available product lines, value added services and scale in purchasing, and (4) existing deep relationships with customers and suppliers.

We also have both exclusive and non-exclusive MRO contracts and new project contracts in place. Our customers over the long term are increasing their maintenance and capital spending, which is being driven by aging infrastructure, increasing regulatory, safety and environmental requirements, the increased utilization of existing facilities and the decreasing quality of energy feedstocks. Our customers benefit from MRO agreements through lower inventory investment and the reduction of transaction costs associated with the elimination of the bid submission process, and our company benefits from the recurring revenue stream that occurs with an MRO contract in place. We believe there are additional opportunities to utilize MRO arrangements through our “one-stop” PVF solution, both in North America and globally as a result of our Transmark acquisition, for servicing the requirements of our customers and we are actively pursuing such agreements.

We recently significantly enhanced our business development efforts by implementing global account management processes more closely aligned with our customers’ procurement operations at the national and local level in order to continue to grow our business. Our global account management strategy is based on aligning key sales executives as single-point MRC contacts servicing the upstream, midstream and downstream requirements of customer accounts that represent the largest percentage of our revenue. As a result in part of this effort, during 2009 our executive sales force has had success in increasing sales under, and in obtaining new, MRO contracts, and we continue to focus on increasing our MRO business both in North America and globally.

Continued Focus on Operational Efficiency.  We strive for continued operational excellence. Our branch managers, regional management and corporate leadership team continually examine branch profitability, working

77

capital management, and return on managed assets and utilize this information to optimize global, regional and local strategies, reduce operating costs and maximize cash flow generation. As part of this effort, management incentives are centered on achieving adjusted EBITDA and return on assets targets.

In response to the recent downturn in certain of our end markets, our management team has focused on several restructuring initiatives to align our cost structure with the level of business activity. For example, during 2008 and 2009 we streamlined our organization by realigning our eight North American geographic regions into four and merged, converted, reorganized or closed over 47 branches as part of this process. These cost saving initiatives include branch consolidations, supplier rationalizations, regional realignments and reductions in corporate overhead, personnel and profit sharing programs. Several of these cost saving initiatives were put in place as part of the McJunkin Red Man merger integration plan and thus we believe will not need to be reversed once activity returns to more normalized levels.

In order to improve efficiencies and profitability, we work to leverage operational best practices, optimize our vendor relationships, purchasing, and inventory levels, and source inventory internationally when appropriate. As part of this strategy, we have integrated our purchasing functions and believe we have developed strong relationships with vendors that value our international footprint, large sales force and volume purchasing capabilities. Because of this, we are often considered the preferred distribution channel. As we continue to consolidate our vendor relationships, we plan to devote additional resources to assist our customers in identifying products that improve their processes,day-to-day operations and overall operating efficiencies. We believe that offering these value added services maximizes our value to our customers and helps differentiate us from competitors.

Expand into New Geographies and End Markets.  We intend to selectively establish new branches in order to facilitate our expansion into new geographies, and enter end markets where extreme operating environments generate high PVF product replacement rates. We continue to evaluate establishing branches and service and supply centers in select domestic and international regions as well as identifying existing branches for overlap and strategic elimination.

We believe that an attractive opportunity also exists to continue to expand internationally. We continue to actively evaluate opportunities to extend our offering to key international markets, particularly in Asia, the Middle East and South America, and recently expanded our global presence through our acquisition of Transmark. The current installed base of energy infrastructure internationally, including the upstream, midstream and downstream end markets, is significantly larger than in North America, and as a result we believe represents an attractive long term opportunity both for us and our largest customers. In addition, the increased focus, particularly by foreign-owned integrated oil companies that traditionally have not used distributors for their PVF procurement requirements, on efficiency, cost savings, process improvements and core competencies, has also generated potential growth opportunities to add new customers that we will continue to monitor closely.

We also believe opportunities exist for expansion into new and under-penetrated end markets where PVF products are used in specialized, highly corrosive applications. These end markets include pulp and paper, waterworks, food and beverage and other general industrial markets, in addition to other energy end markets such as power generation, solar, liquefied natural gas, coal, nuclear and ethanol. We believe our extensive global branch network, comprehensive PVF product offering, large sales force and reputation for high customer service and technical expertise positions us to participate in the growth in these end markets.

We believe there also remains an opportunity to continue to expand into certain niche and specialty products that complement our current extensive product offering.

Focus on Acquisition Integration.  Since January 2007, we have completed five acquisitions and one major merger that have provided us with additional product, end market or geographic adjacencies and diversification. In addition, prior to the investment in our company by the Goldman Sachs Principal Investment Area in January 2007, we completed 18 acquisitions between 2000 and 2006. As part of these transactions, we believe we have demonstrated a track record of successful acquisition integration, including expediently bringing new systems onto ours, consolidating redundant branches, leveraging operational best practices and generating cost savings in purchasing and administrative functions. Acquisitions, particularly of “tuck-in” family owned competitors, remain an attractive growth opportunity and we believe are a core competency of our company.

78

Further Penetrate the Canadian Oil Sands, Particularly the Downstream Sector.  The Canadian Oil Sands region and its attendant downstream markets represent long-term growth areas for our company. Improvements in mining and in-situ technology are driving significant long-term investment in the area and, according to the Alberta Energy Resources and Conservation Board, the Canadian Oil Sands contain an ultimately recoverable crude bitumen resource of 315 billion barrels, with established reserves of 170 billion barrels in 2008. Canada has the second largest recoverable crude oil reserves in the world, behind Saudi Arabia. Capital and maintenance investments in the Canadian Oil Sands are expected to experience significant growth due to advancements in recovery and upgrading technologies. According to the Alberta Ministry of Energy, an estimated CDN$91 .0 billion (US$91.0 billion) was invested in Canadian Oil Sands projects from 1999 to 2009. These large facilities require significant ongoing PVF maintenance well in excess of traditional energy infrastructure, given the extremely harsh operating environments and highly corrosive conditions. MRO expenditures for PVF in the Canadian Oil Sands are typically over five times that of MRO expenditures for PVF in traditional downstream environments. According to the Alberta Ministry of Energy, almost CDN$170 billion (US$170 billion) in Canadian Oil Sands-related projects were underway or proposed as of September 2009, which we estimate could generate significant PVF expenditures. However, current uncertainties regarding oil prices and market conditions may postpone some of these projects.

While Midfield has historically focused on the upstream and midstream sectors in Canada, we believe that a significant opportunity exists to penetrate the Canadian Oil Sands and downstream markets which include the upgrader, refinery and petrochemical markets. We are the leading provider of PVF products to the downstream market in the U.S. and believe this sector expertise and existing customer relationships can be utilized by our upstream and midstream Canadian operations to grow our downstream sector presence in this region. We also believe there is a significant opportunity to penetrate the Canadian Oil Sands extraction market involving in-situ recovery methods, including SAGD (steam assisted gravity drainage) and CSS (cyclic steam stimulation) techniques used to extract the bitumen. We utilize a full team overseen by senior management and have made targeted inventory and facility investments in Canada, including a 60,000 square foot distribution center located near Edmonton and a recently opened approximately 16,000 square foot distribution center near Fort McMurray, to address this opportunity. Finally, we also believe that an attractive opportunity exists to more fully penetrate the MRO market in Canada, particularly in Eastern Canada, including refineries, petrochemical facilities, gas utilities and pulp and paper and other general industrial markets. We recently opened a branch in Sarnia, Ontario to target these end markets.

History

McJunkin Corporation (“McJunkin”) was founded in 1921 in Charleston, West Virginia and initially served the local oil and natural gas industry, focusing primarily on the downstream end market. In 1989, McJunkin broadened its upstream end market presence by merging its oil and natural gas division with Appalachian Pipe & Supply Co. to form McJunkin Appalachian Oilfield Supply Company (“McJunkin Appalachian”, which was a subsidiary of McJunkin Corporation, but has since been merged with and into McJunkin Red Man Corporation), which focused primarily on upstream oil and natural gas customers.

In April 2007, we acquired Midway-Tristate Corporation (“Midway”), a regional PVF oilfield distributor, primarily serving the upstream Appalachia and Rockies regions. This extended our leadership position in Appalachia/Marcellus shale region, while adding additional branches in the Rockies.

Red Man Pipe & Supply Co. (“Red Man”) was founded in 1976 in Tulsa, Oklahoma and began as a distributor to the upstream end market and subsequently expanded into the midstream and downstream end markets. In 2005, Red Man acquired an approximate 51% voting interest in Canadian oilfield distributor Midfield Supply ULC (“Midfield”), giving Red Man a significant presence in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin.

In October 2007, McJunkin and Red Man completed a business combination transaction to form the combined company, McJunkin Red Man Corporation. This transformational merger combined leadership positions in the upstream, midstream and downstream end markets, while creating a “one stop” PVF leader across all end markets with full geographic coverage across North America. Red Man has since been merged with and into McJunkin Red Man Corporation.

On July 31, 2008, we acquired the remaining voting and equity interest in Midfield. Also, in October 2008, we acquired LaBarge Pipe & Steel Company (“LaBarge”). LaBarge is engaged in the sale and distribution of carbon

79

steel pipe (predominately large diameter pipe) for use primarily in the North American midstream energy infrastructure market. The acquisition of LaBarge expanded our midstream end market leadership, while adding a new product line in large outside diameter pipe.

On October 30, 2009, we acquired Transmark Fcx Group B.V. (“Transmark”) and as part of the acquisition, we renamed Transmark as MRC Transmark Group B.V. (“MRC Transmark”) MRC Transmark is a leading distributor of valves and flow control products in Europe, Southeast Asia and Australasia. Transmark was formed from a series of acquisitions, the most significant being the acquisition of FCX European and Australasian distribution business in July 2005. The acquisition of Transmark provided geographic expansion internationally, additional downstream diversification and enhanced valve market leadership.

During 2010, we acquired The South Texas Supply Company, Inc. (“South Texas Supply”) and also certain operations and assets from Dresser Oil Tools, Inc. (“Dresser”). With these two acquisitions, we expanded our footprint in the Eagle Ford and Bakken shale regions, expanding our local presence in two of the emerging active shale basins in North America.

Industry

We primarily serve the global oil and natural gas industry, generating approximately 90% of our sales from supplying products and various services to customers throughout the energy industry. Of our total sales, 95% are comprised of PVF and related oilfield supplies. Given the diverse requirements and various factors that drive the growth of the upstream, midstream and downstream end markets, our sales to each end market may vary over time, though the overall strength of the global energy market and the level of our customers’ capital and other expenditures are typically good indicators of our performance. While customer spending improved in 2010 over 2009, as part of the broader global economic recovery, overall oil and natural gas drilling and completion spending still remained at 2006 levels. Over the longer term we expect customer spending to increase due to a variety of global supply and demand fundamentals. Globally, the energy industry has, during the past several years, experienced a number of favorable supply and demand dynamics that have led companies to make substantial investments to expand their physical infrastructure and processing capacities. On the demand side, world energy markets are benefiting from: (i) increased consumption of energy, caused in part by the industrialization of China, India and other non-OECD countries, (ii) continued global energy infrastructure expansion and (iii) increased use of natural gas, as opposed to coal, in power generation. At the same time, energy supply has been generally constrained due to increasing scarcity of natural resources, declining excess capacity of existing energy assets, geopolitical instability, natural and other unforeseen disasters, and more stringent regulatory, safety and environmental standards. These demand and supply dynamics underscore the need for investment in energy infrastructure and the next level of global exploration, extraction, production, transportation, refining and processing of energy inputs. Furthermore, as companies in the energy industry continue to focus on improving operating efficiencies, they have been increasingly looking to outsource their procurement and related administrative functions to distributors such as MRC.

The following table summarizes our revenue by end market for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2010			2009			2008
Upstream		45	%		44	%		45	%
Midstream		23	%		24	%		22	%
Downstream and industrial		32	%		32	%		33	%
		100	%		100	%		100	%

Upstream:  Exploration and production (“E&P”) companies, commonly referred to as upstream companies, search for oil and natural gas underground and extract it to the surface. Representative companies include Anadarko, Canadian Natural Resources, Ltd., Chesapeake Energy Corporation, Chevron Corporation, ConocoPhillips Company, EnCana Corporation, Exxon Mobil Corporation, Husky Energy Inc., Marathon and Royal Dutch

80

Shell plc. E&P companies typically purchase oilfield supplies, including carbon steel and other pipe, valves, sucker rods, tools, pumps, production equipment and meters.

Notwithstanding the significant decrease in 2009 and slight increase in 2010, the capital spending budgets of E&P companies have grown over the past decade as tight supply conditions and strong global demand for oil and natural gas have spurred companies to expand their operations.

Rig counts are indicative of activity levels in the upstream end market. The average North American rig count increased at an approximate 4% compound annual growth rate between 2006 and 2008, but, due to the global economic recession that started in late 2008, the average fell by more than 40% in 2009. As the economy recovered, the rig count recovered, increasing by 45% in 2010. Furthermore, more technically sophisticated drilling methods, such as deep and horizontal drilling and the multiple fracturing of hydrocarbon production zones, coupled with higher oil and natural gas prices relative to long term averages, have made E&P in previously underdeveloped areas, such as Appalachia and the Rockies, more economically feasible. As part of this trend, there has been growing commercial interest by our customers in several shale deposit areas in the United States, including the Bakken, Barnett, Fayetteville, Haynesville, Eagle Ford and Marcellus shales, where we have an extensive local presence. During 2010, there was a significant shift towards oil prospects, with an average oil rig count of approximately 39% of the total for 2010, the highest percentage in the United States in the last twenty years. Additionally, we believe improved E&P technologies will allow for more deepwater drilling both offshore in the Gulf of Mexico and offshore in certain international areas, where we maintain a presence. In the Gulf of Mexico, new drilling and safety requirements will have to be met in 2011 before there will be a significant activity increase. In Canada, improvements in mining and in-situ technology are driving increased investment in the Canadian Oil Sands.

Midstream:  The midstream end market of the oil and natural gas industry is comprised of companies that provide gathering, storage, transmission, distribution and other services related to the movement of oil, natural gas and refined petroleum products from sources of production to demand centers. Representative midstream companies include AGL Resources Inc., Atmos Energy Corporation, Chesapeake Midstream Partners, Consolidated Edison, Inc., DCP Midstream Partners, LP, El Paso Natural Gas Company, Enterprise Products Partners L.P., Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P., Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P., NiSource, Inc., Vectren Energy and Williams Partners L.P. Core products supplied for midstream infrastructure include carbon steel line pipe for gathering and transporting oil and natural gas, actuation systems for the remote opening and closing of valves, polyethylene pipe for “last mile” transmission to end user locations, and metering equipment for the measurement of oil and natural gas delivery.

The natural gas utilities portion of the midstream sector has been one of our fastest growing markets since regulatory changes enacted in the late 1990s encouraged utilities to outsource through distribution their PVF purchasing and procurement needs. Outsourcing provides significant labor and working capital savings to customers through the consolidation of standardized product procurement spending and the delegation of warehousing operations to us. We estimate that less than one-half of natural gas utilities currently outsource in varying degrees and we anticipate that some of the remaining large natural gas utilities will most likely switch from the direct sourcing model to a distributor model. Furthermore, we believe natural gas utilities will increasingly seek operating efficiencies as large natural gas pipelines and related distribution networks continue to be built, and will increasingly rely on companies such as ours to optimize their supply chains and enable them to focus on their core operations.

The gathering and transmission pipeline activity is anticipated to exhibit significant growth over the next several years due to the new discoveries of natural gas reserves in various shale natural gas fields and the need for additional pipelines to carry heavy sour crude from Canada to refineries in the United States. Recent heightened activity in oil and natural gas fields such as the Bakken, Eagle Ford, Niobrara and Marcellus shale regions remain largely unsupported by transmission facilities of the appropriate scale necessary to bring the oil and natural gas to

82

market. This need for large pipelines to transport energy feedstocks to markets is creating significant growth for PVF and other products we sell. Drivers of pipeline development and growth include the development of natural gas production in new geographies, increased pipeline interconnection driven by a need to lower price differences within regions, and the need to link facilities that may be developed over the next decade.

The need for increased safety and governmental demands for pipeline integrity have also accelerated the MRO cycle for PVF products in this segment. Governmentally mandated programs have hastened the testing of existing lines to ensure that the integrity of the pipe remains consistent with its original design criteria. All pipe falling outside the necessary performance criteria as it relates to safety and overall integrity must be replaced. These regulations for pipeline integrity management should continue to stimulate MRO demand for products as older pipelines are inspected and eventually replaced.

Downstream:  Typical downstream activities include the refining of crude oil and the selling and distribution of products derived from crude oil, as well as the production of petrochemicals. Representative downstream companies include BP plc, Chevron, ConocoPhillips Company, Exxon Mobil Corporation, Marathon Oil Corporation, Royal Dutch Shell plc and Valero Energy Corporation. Refinery infrastructure products include carbon steel line pipe and gate valves, fittings to construct piping infrastructure and chrome or high alloy pipe and fittings for high heat and pressure applications. Chemical/petrochemical products include corrosive-resistant stainless steel or high alloy pipes, multi-turn valves and quarter-turn valves.

Over the past year, refinery utilization rates have decreased significantly as part of the global economic slowdown. As a result, several new projects to increase capacity have been delayed, or in some cases cancelled. The number of operable refineries in the U.S. declined from 223 in 1985 to approximately 148 in 2010, and we believe that the continued stress on this refinery infrastructure caused by demand for petroleum products will accelerate PVF replacement rates over the longer term. This trend is most pronounced outside the U.S. where capacity utilization rates are the highest and the demand for petroleum products is growing the fastest.

The pre-recession gap between fuel consumption and domestic refining capacity, coupled with an anticipated recovery in refinery utilization levels, may necessitate new projects and generate new project and MRO contract opportunities for MRC. Further, as refineries look for ways to improve margins and value-added capabilities, they are also increasingly broadening the crude processed to include heavier, sourer crude. Heavier, sour crude is harsher and more corrosive than light sweet crude, and requires high-grade alloys in many parts of the refining process, shortening product replacement cycles and creating additional MRO contract opportunities for us following project completion. Thus, we believe that this need will create greater demand for our specialty products that include, among others, corrosion resistant components and steam products used in various process applications in refineries.

Petrochemical plants generally use crude oil, natural gas or coal in production of a variety of primary petrochemicals (e.g. ethylene and propylene) that are the building blocks for many of the manufactured goods produced in the world today. The burgeoning economies in China, India and other non-OECD countries have generated increasing demand for petrochemicals and we expect that future increases in demand will require additional capital and other expenditures to increase capacity. Industry participants include integrated oil and natural gas companies with significant petrochemical operations and large industrial chemical companies, such as BP Chemicals, Celanese Chemicals, E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, Eastman Chemicals Company and Exxon Mobil Corporation.

Other Industries Served.  Beyond the oil and natural gas industry, we also supply products and services to other energy sectors such as chemical, petrochemical, coal, power generation, liquefied natural gas and alternative energy facilities. We also serve more general industrial end markets such as pulp and paper, metals processing, fabrication, pharmaceutical, food and beverage and manufacturing, which together make use of products such as corrosion resistant piping products as well as automation and instrumentation products. Some of the customers we serve in these markets include Alcoa, Inc., Arcelor Mittal, Eli Lilly and Company, Georgia Pacific Corporation, International Paper Company and U.S. Steel Corporation. These other markets are typically characterized by large physical plants requiring significant ongoing maintenance and capital programs to ensure efficient and reliable operations. We include these industries within our downstream end market category.

North American Operations

Our North American segment represented approximately 93% of our consolidated revenues in 2010 and is comprised of our business of distributing pipe, valves and fittings to the energy and industrial sectors, across each of the upstream, midstream and downstream end markets, through our distribution operations located throughout North America.

Products:  Through our over 180 branches strategically located throughout North America, we distribute a complete line of PVF products, primarily used in specialized applications in the energy infrastructure market, from our global network of suppliers. The products we distribute are used in the construction, maintenance, repair and overhaul of equipment used in extreme operating conditions such as high pressure, high/low temperature, high

84

corrosive and high abrasive environments. The breadth and depth of our product offerings and our extensive North American presence allow us to provide high levels of service to our customers. Due to our national inventory coverage, we are able to fulfill more orders more quickly, including those with lower volume and specialty items, than we would be able to if we operated on a smaller scaleand/or only at a local or regional level. Key product types are described below:

•  Carbon Steel Fittings and Flanges.  Products include carbon weld fittings, flanges and piping components used primarily to connect piping and valve systems for the transmission of various liquids and gases. These products are used across all the industries in which we operate.

•  Carbon Steel Line Pipe and Oil Country Tubular Goods (“OCTG”).  Carbon standard and line pipe are typically used in high-yield, high-stress, abrasive applications such as the gathering and transmission of oil, natural gas and phosphates. OCTG is used as down hole well casing, production casing and tubing for the conveying of hydrocarbons to the surface and is either classified as carbon or alloy depending on the grade of material.

•  Natural Gas Distribution Products.  Products include risers, meters, polyethylene pipe and fittings and various other components and supplies used primarily in the distribution of natural gas to residential and commercial customers.

•  Oilfield Supplies.  We offer a full range of oilfield supplies and completion equipment. Products offered include high density polyethylene pipe and fittings, valves, well heads, pumping units and rods. Additionally, we can supply a wide range of production equipment including meter runs, tanks and separators used in our upstream end market.

•  Stainless Steel and Alloy Pipe and Fittings.  Products include stainless, alloy and corrosion resistant pipe, tubing, fittings and flanges. These are used most often in the chemical, refining and power generation industries but are used across all of the end markets in which we operate. Alloy products are principally used in high-pressure, high-temperature and high-corrosion applications typically seen in process piping applications.

•  Valves and Specialty Products.  Products offered include ball, butterfly, gate, globe, check, needle and plug valves which are manufactured from cast steel, stainless/alloy steel, forged steel, carbon steel or cast and ductile iron. Valves are generally used in oilfield and industrial applications to control direction, velocity and pressure of fluids and gases within transmission networks. Specialty products include lined corrosion resistant piping systems, valve automation and top work components used for regulating flow and on/off service, and a wide range of steam and instrumentation products used in various process applications within our refinery, petrochemical and general industrial end markets.

Services:  We provide many of our customers with a comprehensive array of services including multiple deliveries each day, zone store management, valve tagging and significant system interfaces that directly tie the customer into our proprietary information systems. This allows us to interface with our customers’ information technology (“IT”) systems and provide an integrated supply service. Such services strengthen our position with our customers as we become more integrated into the customer’s business and supply chain and are able to market a “total transaction cost” solution rather than individual product prices.

Our comprehensive legacy information systems, which provide for customer and supplier electronic integrations, information sharing ande-commerce applications, further strengthen our ability to provide high levels of service to our customers. In 2010, we processed over 1.5 million EDI/EDE customer transactions. Our highly specialized implementation group focuses on the integration of our information systems and implementation of improved business processes with those of a new customer during the initiation phase. By maintaining a specialized team, we are able to utilize best practices to implement our systems and processes, thereby providing solutions to customers in a more organized, efficient and effective manner. This approach is valuable to large, multi-location customers who have demanding service requirements.

As major integrated and large independent energy companies have implemented efficiency initiatives to focus on their core business, many of these companies have begun outsourcing certain of their procurement and inventory management requirements. In response to these initiatives and to satisfy customer service requirements, we offer integrated supply services to customers who wish to outsource all or a part of the administrative burden associated

85

with sourcing PVF and other related products, and we also often have MRC employeeson-site full-time at many customer locations. Our integrated supply group offers procurement-related services, physical warehousing services, product quality assurance and inventory ownership and analysis services.

Suppliers:  We source the products we distribute from a global network of suppliers. Our suppliers benefit from access to our diversified customer base and, by consolidating customer orders, we benefit from stronger purchasing power and preferred vendor programs. Our purchases from our top ten suppliers in 2010 approximated 41% of our North American total purchases, with our single largest supplier constituting approximately 12%. We are the largest buyer for many of our suppliers and we source a significant majority of the products we distribute directly from the manufacturer. The remainder of the products we distribute are sourced from manufacturer representatives, trading companies and, in some instances, other distributors.

We believe our customers and suppliers recognize us as an industry leader for the quality of products we supply and for the formal processes we use to evaluate vendor performance. This vendor assessment process is referred to as the MRC Supplier Registration Process, which involves employing individuals, certified by the International Registry of Certificated Auditors, who specialize in conductingon-site assessments of our manufacturers as well as monitoring and evaluating the quality of goods produced. The result of this process is the MRC Approved Supplier List (“MRC ASL”). Products from the manufacturers on this list are supplied across many of the end markets we support. Given that many of our largest customers, especially those in the refinery and chemical industries, maintain their own formal Approved Manufacturer List (“AML”) listing, we are recognized as an important source of information sharing with our key customers regarding the results of ouron-site assessment. For this reason, together with our commitment to promote high quality products that bring the best overall value to our customers, we often become the preferred provider of AML products to these customers. Many of our customers regularly collaborate with us regarding specific manufacturer performance, our own experience with vendors’ products and the results of ouron-site supplier assessments. The emphasis placed on the MRC ASL by both our customers and suppliers helps secure our central and critical position in the global PVF supply chain.

We utilize a variety of freight carriers in addition to our corporate truck fleet to ensure timely and efficient delivery of our products. With respect to deliveries of products from us to our customers, or our outbound needs, we utilize both our corporate fleet and third-party transportation providers. With respect to shipments of products from suppliers to us, or our inbound needs, we principally use third party carriers. We utilize third parties for approximately 20% of our outbound deliveries and for nearly all of our inbound shipments.

Seasonality:  Our business experiences mild seasonal effects as demand for the products we distribute is generally higher during the months of August, September and October. Demand for the products we distribute during the months of November and December and early in the year generally tends to be lower due to a lower level of activity in our end markets near the end of the calendar year and due to winter weather disruptions. In addition, certain E&P activities, primarily in Canada, typically experience a springtime reduction due to seasonal thaws and regulatory restrictions, limiting the ability of drilling rigs to operate effectively during these periods.

Customers:  Our principal customers are companies active in the upstream, midstream and downstream sectors of the energy industry as well as in other industrial and energy sectors. Due to the demanding operating conditions in the energy industry and high costs associated with equipment failure, our customers require highly reliable products from distributors with established qualifications and experience. As our PVF products typically represent a fraction of the total cost of a given project, our customers place a premium on service given the high cost to them of maintenance or new project delays. We strive to build long-term relationships with our customers by maintaining our reputation as a supplier of high-quality, efficient and reliable products and value-added services and solutions.

We have a diverse customer base of over 10,000 active customers. We are not dependent on any one customer or group of customers. A majority of our customers are offered terms of net 30 days (due within 30 days of the date of the invoice). Customers generally have the right to return products we have sold, subject to certain conditions and limitations, although returns have historically been immaterial to our sales. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, our top twenty-five North American customers represented approximately half of our North American sales. For many of our largest customers, we are often their sole or primary PVF provider by end market or geography, their largest or second largest supplier in aggregate or, in certain instances, the sole provider for their upstream, midstream and downstream procurement needs. We believe that many customers for which we are not the

86

end market exclusive or comprehensive North American sole source PVF provider will continue to reduce their number of suppliers in an effort to reduce costs and administrative burdens and focus on their core operations. As such, we believe these customers will seek to select PVF distributors with the most extensive product offering and broadest geographic presence. Furthermore, we believe our business will benefit as companies in the energy industry continue to consolidate and the larger, resulting companies look to larger distributors such as ourselves as their sole or primary source PVF provider.

Backlog:  Backlog is determined by the amount of unshipped third-party customer orders, either specific or general (including under pipe programs) in nature, which may be revised or cancelled by the customer in certain instances. There can be no assurance that the backlog amounts will be ultimately realized as revenue, or that the Company will earn a profit on the backlog of orders. Our backlog at December 31, 2010 was $519 million. At December 31, 2009, our backlog, which at that time generally excluded oil and gas well program orders, was $264 million.

Competition:  We are the largest North American PVF distributor to the energy industry based on sales. The broad PVF distribution industry is fragmented and includes large, nationally recognized distributors, major regional distributors and many smaller local distributors. The principal methods of competition include offering prompt local service, fulfillment capability, breadth of product and service offerings, price and total costs to the customer. Our competitors include nationally recognized distributors, such as Wilson Industries, Inc. (a subsidiary of Schlumberger) and National Oilwell Varco, Inc., several large regional or product-specific competitors and many local, family-owned PVF distributors.

Employees:  As of December 31, 2010, we had approximately 3,120 employees in North America. Twenty-two employees in the United States belong to a union and are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We consider our relationships with our employees to be good.

International Operations

Our International segment represents our valve distribution business to the energy and general industrial sectors, across each of the upstream and downstream end markets, through our distribution operations located throughout Europe, Asia and Australasia. Our International segment represented approximately 7% of our consolidated revenues in 2010.

Products:  Through our over 30 strategic branch and service facilities throughout Europe, Asia and Australasia, we distribute a complete line of valve and specialty products. The products we distribute are used in the construction, maintenance, repair and overhaul of equipment used in extreme operating conditions such as high pressure, high/low temperature, high corrosive and high abrasive environments.

Due to our geographical footprint, we are able to service our global customers at several of their locations. Key product types are described below:

•  Valves and Specialty Products.  Products offered include ball, butterfly, gate, globe, check, needle and plug valves which are manufactured from cast steel, stainless/alloy steel, forged steel, carbon steel or cast and ductile iron. Valves are generally used in oilfield and industrial applications to control direction, velocity and pressure of fluids and gases within transmission networks. Specialty products include lined corrosion resistant piping systems, valve automation and top work components used for regulating flow and on/off service and a wide range of steam and instrumentation products used in various process applications within our offshore refinery, petrochemical and general industrial end markets.

Services:  We provide our customers with a comprehensive array of services, including multiple daily deliveries, zone stores management, valve tagging and significant system interfaces that directly tie the customer into our proprietary information systems. This allows us to interface with our customers’ IT systems and provide an integrated supply service. Such services strengthen our position with our customers as we become more integrated into the customer’s business and supply chain and are able to market a “total transaction cost” solution rather than individual product prices.

As major integrated and large independent energy companies have implemented efficiency initiatives to focus on their core business, many of these companies have begun outsourcing certain of their procurement and inventory management requirements.

We strive to build long-term relationships with our customers by maintaining our reputation as a supplier of high-quality, efficient and reliable products and value-added services and solutions.

We have a diverse customer base, consisting of thousands of active customers. We are not dependent on any one customer or group of customers. Customers generally have the right to return products we have sold, subject to certain conditions and limitations, although returns have historically been immaterial to our sales. For the year ended December 31, 2010, our top ten International customers represented approximately 40% of our International sales.

Environmental Matters

We are subject to a variety of federal, state, local, foreign and provincial environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, including those governing the discharge of pollutants into the air or water, the management, storage and disposal of, or exposure to, hazardous substances and wastes, the responsibility to investigate and clean up contamination and occupational health and safety. Fines and penalties may be imposed for non-compliance with applicable environmental, health and safety requirements and the failure to have or to comply with the terms and

88

conditions of required permits. Historically, the costs to comply with environmental and health and safety requirements have not been material. We are not aware of any pending environmental compliance or remediation matters that, in the opinion of management, are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our business, financial position or results of operations. However, the failure by us to comply with applicable environmental, health and safety requirements could result in fines, penalties, enforcement actions, third party claims for property damage and personal injury, requirements to clean up property or to pay for the costs of cleanup, or regulatory or judicial orders requiring corrective measures, including the installation of pollution control equipment or remedial actions.

Under certain laws and regulations, such as the U.S. federal Superfund law or its foreign equivalent, the obligation to investigate and remediate contamination at a facility may be imposed on current and former owners or operators or on persons who may have sent waste to that facility for disposal. Liability under these laws and regulations may be imposed without regard to fault or to the legality of the activities giving rise to the contamination. Although we are not aware of any active litigation against us under the U.S. federal Superfund law or its state or foreign equivalents, contamination has been identified at several of our current and former facilities, and we have incurred and will continue to incur costs to investigate and remediate these conditions. Moreover, we may incur liabilities in connection with environmental conditions currently unknown to us relating to our prior, existing or future sites or operations or those of predecessor companies whose liabilities we may have assumed or acquired.

In addition, environmental, health and safety laws and regulations applicable to our business and the business of our customers, including laws regulating the energy industry, and the interpretation or enforcement of these laws and regulations, are constantly evolving and it is impossible to predict accurately the effect that changes in these laws and regulations, or their interpretation or enforcement, may have upon our business, financial condition or results of operations. Should environmental laws and regulations, or their interpretation or enforcement, become more stringent, our costs could increase, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In particular, legislation and regulations limiting emissions of greenhouse gases (“GHGs”), including carbon dioxide associated with the burning of fossil fuels, are at various stages of consideration and implementation at the international, national, regional and state levels. In 2005, the Kyoto Protocol to the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which established a binding set of emission targets for GHGs, became binding on the countries that ratified it. Certain states have adopted or are considering legislation or regulation imposing overall caps on GHG emissions from certain facility categories or mandating the increased use of electricity from renewable energy sources. Similar legislation has been proposed at the federal level. In addition, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) has begun to implement regulations that would require permits for and reductions in greenhouse gas emissions for certain categories of facilities, the first of which became effective in January 2010. The EPA also intends to set GHG emissions standards for power plants in May 2012 and for refineries in November 2012. These laws and regulations could negatively impact the market for the products we distribute and, consequently, our business.

In addition, the federal government and certain state governments are considering enhancing the regulation of hydraulic fracturing, a practice involving the injection of certain substances into rock formations to stimulate production of hydrocarbons, particularly natural gas, from shale basin regions. Any increased federal or state regulation of hydraulic fracturing could reduce the demand for our products in these regions.

Board of Directors

Our board of directors currently consists of twelve members. The current directors are included above. Our directors are elected annually to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Each director who is an employee of Goldman Sachs & Co. is entitled to six (6) votes and all other directors are entitled to one (1) vote on all matters that come before the board of directors.

Board Leadership Structure

Our board of directors currently combines the positions of CEO and Chairman. These positions are currently held by Mr. Lane. The responsibilities of the chairman include presiding at all meetings of the board, reviewing and approving meeting agendas, meeting schedules and other information, as appropriate, and performing such other duties as required from time to time. We believe that the current model is effective for the company as the combined position of CEO and Chairman maximizes strategic advantages and company and industry expertise. Mr. Lane has extensive leadership experience in our industry and is best positioned to set and execute strategic priorities. Mr. Lane’s leadership enhances the board’s exercise of its responsibilities. In addition, this model provides enhanced efficiency and effective decision-making and clear accountability. The board evaluates this structure periodically.

In addition, each of our audit committee and compensation committee is led by a chair, each of whom is an independent director. The board believes that having these two key committees with independent chairs provides a structure for strong independent oversight of our management.

Risk Oversight

The Board of Directors administers its risk oversight function primarily through the audit committee, which oversees the Company’s risk management practices. The audit committee is responsible for, among other things, discussing with management on a regular basis the Company’s guidelines and policies that govern the process for risk assessment and risk management. This discussion includes the Company’s major risk exposures and actions taken to monitor and control such exposures. The board believes that its administration of risk management has not affected the board’s leadership structure, as described above.

In addition, we have established a risk management committee. Our risk management committee is currently comprised of Andrew R. Lane, James F. Underhill, Stephen W. Lake, Gary A. Ittner, Rory M. Isaac, Scott A. Hutchinson, Neil P. Wagstaff, Diana D. Morris, Elton Bond, Theresa L. Dudding and Hugh Brown. The principal responsibilities of the risk management committee are to review and monitor any material risks or exposures associated with the conduct of our business, the internal risk management systems implemented to identify, minimize, monitor or manage such risks or exposures, and the Company’s policies and procedures for risk management. While the audit committee is responsible for reviewing the Company’s policies and practices with respect to risk assessment and risk management, it is the responsibility of senior management of the Company to determine the appropriate level of the Company’s exposure to risk.

Committees of the Board

Audit Committee.  Our audit committee is currently comprised of Leonard M. Anthony, Rhys J. Best, Christopher A.S. Crampton and John A. Perkins. Mr. Anthony is chairman of the audit committee. Our board of directors has determined that Mr. Anthony qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” and an “independent director” under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. The audit committee’s primary duties and responsibilities are to assist the board of directors in oversight of the integrity of our financial statements, the integrity and adequacy of our auditing, accounting and financial reporting processes and systems of internal controls for financial reporting, compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, including internal controls designed for that purpose, the independence, qualifications and performance of our independent auditor and the performance of our internal audit function.

Compensation Committee.  Our compensation committee is currently comprised of Rhys J. Best, Peter C. Boylan, III, Christopher A.S. Crampton and John F. Daly. Mr. Best is chairman of the compensation committee. The

95

principal responsibilities of the compensation committee are to establish policies and periodically determine matters involving executive compensation, recommend changes in employee benefit programs, grant or recommend the grant of stock options and stock awards and provide counsel regarding key personnel selection.

International Committee.  Our international committee is currently comprised of Gerard P. Krans, Rhys J. Best, Christopher A.S. Crampton, John F. Daly, Dr. Cornelis A. Linse and John A. Perkins. Mr. Krans is chairman of the international committee. The purpose of the international committee is to assist the board of directors and our management with the oversight of our business strategies and initiatives outside of the United States.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller and persons performing similar functions. A copy of the code of ethics has been posted on our website atwww.mrcpvf.com. In the event that we amend or waive provisions of this code of ethics with respect to such officers, we intend to also disclose the same on our website.

Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Overview

Since the GS Acquisition in January 2007, the overriding objective of our owners and management has been to increase the economic value and size of our company during our owners’ period of ownership, and our compensation programs have been designed to support this continuing goal. In addition, compensation decisions during 2007 and 2008 were made to successfully integrate the compensation programs of McJunkin Corporation and Red Man. This integration was largely completed by the end of 2008.

The compensation committee of our board of directors (the “Committee”) oversees company-wide compensation practices; reviews, develops and administers executive compensation programs; and approves or makes recommendations to our board of directors regarding certain compensation matters. During 2010, the Committee was comprised of Rhys J. Best, Peter C. Boylan, III (appointed in November 2010), Christopher A.S. Crampton, John F. Daly, Harry K. Hornish, Jr. and Sam B. Rovit (appointed in May 2010), with Mr. Best serving as chairman. Each of the directors serving on the Committee during 2010 also currently serves on the Committee, with the exception of Messrs. Hornish and Rovit, who resigned from our board of directors in January 2011 and February 2011, respectively. Each member of the Committee is a non-employee director.

Generally, the Committee has decision-making authority with respect to executive compensation matters, including determination of the compensation and benefits of the executive officers. With respect to equity-based compensation awards (including to the executive officers), the Committee approves grants or makes recommendations to the entire board of directors for final approval.

Pursuant to the Committee’s charter, its duties include:

•  Subject to the terms of any employment contracts, reviewing and determining, or making recommendations to our board of directors with respect to, the annual salary, bonus, stock options and other compensation, incentives and benefits, direct and indirect, of the CEO and other executive officers. In determining long-term incentive compensation of the CEO and other executive officers, the Committee will consider, among other things, the Company’s performance and relative shareholder return, the value of similar incentive awards to chief executive officers and other executive officers of comparable companies and the awards given to the CEO and the executive officers in the past.

•  Reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to compensation of the CEO and other executive officers and evaluating the CEO’s and other executive officers’ performance in light of those goals and objectives on an annual basis, and, either separately or together with other independent directors (as directed by the Board), determining and approving the CEO’s and other executive officers’ compensation level based on this evaluation or making recommendations to the board of directors with respect thereto.

96

•  Reviewing and authorizing or recommending to our board of directors to authorize, as determined by the Committee, the Company to enter into, amend or terminate any employment, consulting, change in control, severance or termination, or other compensation agreements or arrangements with the CEO and other executive officers of the Company (and, at the option of the Committee, other officers and employees of the Company).

•  Periodically reviewing and considering the competitiveness and appropriateness of our executive compensation.

•  Reviewing new executive compensation programs, reviewing on a periodic basis the operation of our existing executive compensation programs to determine whether they integrate appropriately, and establishing and periodically reviewing policies for the administration of executive compensation programs.

•  Overseeing the administration of incentive compensation plans and equity-based compensation plans and exercising all authority and discretion provided to the Committee under those plans and performing such duties and responsibilities as may be assigned by our board of directors with respect to such plans.

•  Conducting a review at least annually of, and determining or making recommendations to our board of directors regarding compensation for non-employee directors (including compensation for service on the board of directors and committees thereof, meeting fees and equity-based compensation). The Committee is also responsible for and oversees administration of any plans or programs providing for the compensation of non-employee directors.

•  Overseeing the procedures and substance of the Company’s compensation and benefit policies (subject, if applicable, to shareholder approval), including establishing, reviewing, approving and making recommendations to our board of directors with respect to any incentive-compensation and equity-based plans of the Company that are subject to board approval.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Committee believes that our executive compensation programs should be structured to reward the achievement of specific annual, long-term and strategic performance goals of our company. Accordingly, the executive compensation philosophy of the Committee is threefold:

•  To align the interests of our executive officers with those of our shareholders, thereby providing long-term economic benefit to our shareholders;

•  To provide competitive financial incentives in the form of salary, bonus and benefits, with the goal of attracting and retaining talented executive officers; and

•  To maintain a compensation program that includes at-risk, performance based awards whereby executive officers who demonstrate exceptional performance will have the opportunity to realize appropriate economic rewards.

Setting Executive Compensation

Role of the Compensation Committee

The Committee has granted short-term cash incentive and long-term equity incentive awards to motivate our executive officers to achieve the business goals established by our company. In addition to considering our philosophy and objectives, the Committee considers the impact of the duties and responsibilities of each executive officer on the results and success of the Company. Based on these factors, the Committee has devised a compensation program designed to keep our executive officers highly incentivized and also to achieve parity among executive officers with similar duties and responsibilities.

Role of Executive Officers

Since Andrew R. Lane was hired as chief executive officer in September 2008, he has met periodically with Diana D. Morris, our senior vice president of human resources, to discuss executive compensation issues.

97

Ms. Morris makes quarterly presentations to the Committee with respect to issues and developments regarding compensation and our compensation programs. Mr. Lane and Ms. Morris work together annually to develop tally sheets, which Mr. Lane presents to the Committee. These tally sheets present the current compensation of each executive officer, divided into each element of compensation, and also present the proposed changes to such compensation for the upcoming year (except that no proposals are made with respect to changes to Mr. Lane’s compensation). Such changes to Mr. Lane’s compensation are left to the discretion of the Committee. Following Mr. Lane’s presentation of the tally sheets, the Committee determines appropriate changes in compensation for the upcoming year. During the first quarter of each year, the Committee approves the executive officers’ annual target bonuses (expressed in each case as a percentage of base salary) and the performance metrics for the Variable Compensation Plan with respect to such year. Certain elements of compensation (such as annual base salary and annual target bonus percentage) are set forth in employment agreements entered into between the company and certain executive officers. Decisions with respect to equity-based compensation awards granted to our named executive officers are made by the Committee, which may recommend such awards to the entire board of directors for final approval.

Role of Compensation Consultant

Pursuant to the Committee’s charter, the Committee has the power to retain or terminate compensation consultants and engage other advisors. In 2008, the Company engaged Hewitt Associates, a third-party global human resources consulting firm, to review and make recommendations with respect to the structure of our compensation programs, including executive compensation, following the business combination of McJunkin Corporation and Red Man Pipe & Supply Co. in October 2007. During this engagement Hewitt Associates worked with a team from the Company to review and assess compensation. The primary task of Hewitt Associates in 2008 was to assist the Company in successfully integrating the compensation programs of McJunkin Corporation and Red Man Pipe & Supply Co. As part of this process, Hewitt Associates reviewed existing McJunkin Corporation and Red Man compensation programs and made recommendations as to how such programs could be integrated based on its review and survey data. As part of Hewitt Associates’ integration work in 2008, an executive compensation specialist from Hewitt Associates advised the Committee regarding the appropriate allocation of executive compensation among each element of compensation using benchmark data. Certain recommendations from the Hewitt study were approved by the Compensation Committee. Starting on January 1, 2009, McJunkin Red Man implemented a new compensation program structure, which included integration of multiple heritage plans previously maintained by McJunkin Corporation and Red Man Pipe & Supply Co. The Committee did not engage Hewitt Associates or any other compensation consultant during 2009. In December 2010, the Committee engaged Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC (an independent consultant specializing in executive compensation) to formulate a report and make recommendations to the Committee regarding executive compensation during 2011, based on peer group and other market data, as well as industry trends and current practices.

Components of Executive Compensation

Our named executive officers for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 were Andrew R. Lane, James F. Underhill, Neil P. Wagstaff, Gary A. Ittner and Scott A. Hutchinson. In addition, the company has elected to also describe and disclose compensation earned by Rory M. Isaac and Stephen W. Lake, who are not named executive officers and who shall be referred to as “additional executive officers” throughout the executive compensation disclosure. The principal components of compensation for our named executive officers and the additional executive officers are:

•  Base salary;

•  Short-term incentive compensation;

•  Long-term equity compensation;

•  Retirement benefits; and

•  Perquisites and other personal benefits.

98

Base Salary

We provide our named executive officers and additional executive officers with base salary to compensate them for services rendered during the fiscal year. Base salary for executives (including the named executive officers and additional executive officers) is reviewed on an annual basis and is determined based on each executive’s position, responsibilities, performance, current compensation (both individually and as compared to other executives) and survey data. Each of Messrs. Lane, Underhill, Wagstaff and Lake is party to an employment agreement. The initial base salaries of these executive officers are set forth in their respective agreements, and are reviewed by the Committee annually and may be adjusted upward at the time of such review based on the factors described above.

Short-term Incentive Compensation

We utilize an annual cash bonus plan called the Variable Compensation Plan, in which each of our named executive officers and additional executive officers participates, to provide appropriate incentives to achieve annual objectives. Each of the named executive officers and additional executive officers had a target annual bonus for the 2010 performance year equal to 100% of his annual base salary. The target annual bonus percentages for each of Messrs. Lane, Underhill, Wagstaff and Lake are set forth in their respective employment agreements with us. The Committee determined in early 2009 that all of our executive vice presidents (including Messrs. Ittner, Hutchinson and Isaac) should have annual target bonuses equal to 100% of annual base salary during 2009 due to the responsibilities and duties associated with these positions. These target annual bonuses remained in effect during 2010. The payment of awards under the Variable Compensation Plan for the 2010 performance year depended on the achievement of three weighted performance metrics. Those metrics were adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”); return on net assets (“RONA”), calculated as EBITDA divided by net assets; and individualized key performance indicators (“KPIs”) established for each participant in the plan. Achievement of goals with respect to EBITDA, RONA and KPIs constituted 70%, 20% and 10% of annual awards, respectively.

KPIs for the named executive officers and additional executive officers normally comprise 10% of annual bonuses, but were capped at 5% for 2010. These KPIs during 2010 related directly to the functions of their respective disciplines which contributed to the achievement of the Company’s financial goals for 2010. The following is a summary of the achievements by the named executive officers in 2010 with respect to their individual KPI goals. Andrew R. Lane led a growth focused plan which resulted in the company meeting revenue goals with stronger balance sheet positions for inventory management and debt reduction. Mr. Lane has also led improvements in business processes and more strategic account management plans for major customers. Mr. Lane also engaged outside consultants to assess growth opportunities and strategies and furthered the growth potential and market position of the company by targeting strategic acquisitions. In addition, Mr. Lane examined opportunities internally for more efficient operational structures and processes. James F. Underhill successfully met goals relating to the improvement of timely financial reporting as well as the preparation of public reporting documents onForms 10-K,10-Q, and8-K. Mr. Underhill also made significant progress and achieved success with respect to internal audit capacity and the implementation of certain compliance measures as well as measurable improvement in the finance and accounting areas relating to process improvements and consolidation of accounting and financial reporting for all operating entities. Neil P. Wagstaff led efforts of MRC Transmark to integrate project and global contract groups with the North American operating sector and expanded the capabilities of MRC Transmark by opening a new facility in Singapore and a business development office in London. Mr. Wagstaff also managed the operational efficiency of MRC Transmark by reducing expenses and divesting of non-core operations while maintaining attractive gross margin levels. Gary A. Ittner successfully managed our inventory and supply chain purchases. Mr. Ittner also integrated the activities of support functions, information technology, human resources, and business processes, safety and quality to address and organize process improvements and operational support for the company. Scott A. Hutchinson managed strategic growth by expanding operations in the markets serving the oil and gas shale plays through target acquisitions in key geographic areas and the opening or relocation of branch operations. Mr. Hutchinson also furthered and enhanced the efficiency of operations through improved processes, strong leadership of this regional operations management, and close cooperation with the executive team including the business development and administrative groups. Rory M. Isaac successfully streamlined the business development organization to align with market opportunities, strengthened the pricing organization increasing resources

99

to maximize revenue potential as well as the development of a gross margin enhancement strategy, and led the negotiation and execution of new customer contracts and the renewal of existing customer contracts. Stephen W. Lake, as General Counsel, assisted in closing the sale of two acquisitions during 2010 as well as the closing of certain non core asset divestitures. Mr. Lake’s oversight and guidance was also instrumental in the development of processes and reporting as required for public companies and was responsible for the rollout of and training for key global policies including with respect to import/export policy, ethics, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act , Office of Foreign Assets Control and antitrust. Mr. Lake also implemented systems to track and review the terms of company contracts.

For the 2010 performance year, the EBITDA and RONA performance goals were determined by a budgeting process that involved an examination of our company’s markets, customers and general outlook with respect to 2010. The final budget was approved by our board of directors. 70% of annual incentive awards are earned based on achievement of EBITDA, 20% are earned based on achievement of RONA and 10% are earned based on achievement of KPIs applicable to the particular participant. The 2010 EBITDA and RONA performance goals related to the performance of the entire MRC organization. No awards under the Variable Compensation Plan were payable with respect to the EBITDA or RONA performance metrics unless at least 51% of the relevant performance goal was achieved. At 51% achievement of each such performance metric, there was a payout of 2% of each participant’s target annual incentive bonus related to such performance metric; this portion of the payout increased with respect to such performance metric in 2% increments for each additional percent of achievement up to full achievement of the relevant performance goal. Achievement of KPIs was determined on a discretionary basis. Upon full achievement of each of the performance metrics (EBITDA, RONA and KPIs), 100% of the target annual incentive bonus could be paid. In 2010, the maximum award possible under the executive plan was 115% of target if goals were exceeded. The achievement of the performance metrics is evaluated on an annual basis in connection with awards to the named executive officers and additional executive officers under this plan. In 2010, the Company failed to reach its full EBITDA and RONA goals. As a result, the Committee determined that the maximum achievable percentage of the annual awards for KPIs should be capped at a maximum of 5% for 2010 in recognition of the overall financial goals not being met.

Messrs. Lane, Underhill, Wagstaff, Ittner, Hutchinson and Lake were paid 57% of their target annual incentive bonus under the Variable Compensation Plan and Mr. Isaac was paid 56% of this target annual incentive bonus under the Variable Compensation Plan. The amounts paid under the Variable Compensation Plan to the named executive officers and additional executive officers for performance in respect of the 2010 performance year are as follows: $399,000 for Mr. Lane; $285,000 for Mr. Underhill; $189,064 for Mr. Wagstaff ; $213,750 for Mr. Ittner; $196,650 for Mr. Hutchinson; $210,000 for Mr. Isaac; and $213,750 for Mr. Lake.

Long-Term Equity Compensation

We believe that long-term equity compensation is important to assure that the interests of management remain aligned with those of stockholders. Since the GS Acquisition, however, the form of long-term equity compensation that has been granted to executives (including the named executive officers and additional executive officers) has evolved. In connection with the GS Acquisition and the Red Man Transaction, certain executives (including Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake) were granted profits units in PVF Holdings LLC. The number of profits units awarded in connection with those transactions was determined based on various factors, including a consideration of what size award was required to adequately incentivize the executives (as part of the executives’ overall compensation package) and, most notably, negotiations between executives and our company as part of the overall negotiations relating to the GS Acquisition and the Red Man Transaction. Starting in 2008, our board of directors along with the Committee decided to grant executives equity compensation in the form of stock options in respect of our common stock and restricted common stock.

We do not currently have a formal policy regarding the timing of equity award grants. In connection with the GS Acquisition and the Red Man transaction, equity awards were made to various executives. Since the Red Man transaction, our board of directors has approved grants of equity awards in connection with new hires and changes in position and has made grants in its discretion to employees to reward their service to our company. The Committee is currently considering a periodic program of equity-based incentive plans.

Profits Units

Profits units are governed by Articles III and VII of the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of PVF Holdings LLC dated as of October 31, 2007, and amended on December 18, 2007 and October 30, 2009 (the “PVF LLC Agreement”). Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson and Isaac were granted profits units in PVF Holdings LLC on January 31, 2007 and Mr. Lake was granted profits units in PVF Holdings LLC on January 7, 2008. Grantees who received profits units were not required to make any capital contribution in exchange for their profits units, which were awarded as compensation. Profits units have no voting rights, and PVF Holdings LLC may from time to time distribute its available cash to holders of profits units along with its other equity holders. Distributions by PVF Holdings LLC are made, first, to holders of common units (including restricted common units), pro rata in proportion to the number of such units outstanding at the time of distribution, until each holder has received an amount equal to such holder’s net aggregate capital contributions (for purposes of the PVF LLC Agreement) and, second, to holders of all units (including profits units) pro rata in proportion to the number of units outstanding at the time of such distribution. Please see the table titled “Outstanding Equity Awards at 2010 Fiscal Year-End” below for the number of profits units held by the named executive officers and additional executive officers as of December 31, 2010.

Pursuant to the PVF LLC Agreement, profits units generally become vested in one-third increments on each of the third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the date of grant. In the event of a termination of employment other than for Cause (as defined in the PVF LLC Agreement), all unvested profits units will be forfeited. However, in the event of a termination for Cause, unless otherwise determined by the board of directors of PVF Holdings LLC, all profits units, whether vested or unvested, will be forfeited. In the event of a termination by reason of death or Disability (as defined in the PVF LLC Agreement), all unvested profits units will become vested and nonforfeitable. Also, in the event of a Transaction (as defined in the PVF LLC Agreement), all unvested profits units will become vested and nonforfeitable.

The PVF LLC Agreement also specifies that profits units may be subject to different vesting schedules if approved by the board of directors of PVF Holdings LLC. The terms of the profits units held by Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake, including the vesting schedules, are governed solely by the PVF LLC Agreement.

Stock Options and Restricted Stock

We maintain a restricted stock plan and a stock option plan (which has asub-plan for participants residing in Canada). Pursuant to these plans, awards of restricted stock and stock options may be granted to key employees, directors and consultants of the Issuer and its subsidiaries and affiliates. The terms and conditions to which each award is subject are set forth in individual award agreements.

In connection with the hiring of Mr. Lane in September 2008, Mr. Lane purchased 170,218 shares of our common stock, and was granted stock options in respect of 1,758,929 shares of our common stock, with an exercise price of $17.63 (taking into account the October 2008 stock split). Mr. Lane’s options will become vested in equal installments on each of the second, third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the date of grant, conditioned on continued employment through the applicable vesting date. Mr. Lane’s options are subject to pro-rata accelerated vesting in the event his employment is terminated (i) by us other than for Cause (as defined in his employment agreement), (ii) by Mr. Lane for Good Reason (as defined in his employment agreement) or (iii) by reason of Mr. Lane’s death or disability. In addition, Mr. Lane’s options will become fully vested and exercisable upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in his employment agreement). All of Mr. Lane’s stock options, whether vested or unvested, will be forfeited in the event his employment is terminated by us for Cause (as defined in the stock option plan).

In February 2009, Mr. Lane was granted 50,000 shares of our restricted common stock. This restricted stock award becomes fully vested on the fifth anniversary of the date of grant, and is conditioned on continued employment through the vesting date. Mr. Lane’s restricted stock award will become fully vested in the event of a Transaction (as defined in the restricted stock agreement) or upon the termination of Mr. Lane’s employment due to his death or disability. All shares of restricted stock, whether vested or unvested, will be forfeited if his employment is terminated by us for Cause (as defined in the restricted stock plan).

101

In June 2009, Mr. Lane transferred all common stock, restricted stock and stock options held by him in respect of the Issuer to Andy & Cindy Lane Family, L.P. for no consideration. The terms and conditions of the stock option and restricted stock awards, including conditions relating to Mr. Lane’s employment, continue to govern these awards following such transfer. In September 2009, the option exercise price of the stock options held by Andy & Cindy Lane Family, L.P. was reduced from $17.63 to $12.50, which is not less than the fair market value of our common stock as of the date of such amendment. This reduction in exercise price was made to maintain the incentive value of this award. In December 2009, in connection with the $2.9 million cash dividend paid by McJunkin Red Man Corporation to McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation, the option exercise price of the stock options held by Andy & Cindy Lane Family, L.P. was reduced to $12.48.

In December 2009, Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake were granted stock options and on April 1, 2010, Mr. Wagstaff was granted options, in each case that follow the generally applicable vesting schedule of three equal installments on the third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the date of grant and are conditioned on continued employment through the applicable vesting date. These options will become fully vested and exercisable upon the occurrence of a Transaction (as defined in the stock option plan) or upon the termination of the executive’s employment due to death or Disability (as defined in the stock option plan). All stock options granted, whether vested or unvested, will be forfeited in the event of a termination of employment for Cause (as defined in the stock option plan).

Retirement and Other Benefits

On December 31, 2007, we adopted the McJunkin Red Man Corporation Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan. Under the terms of the plan, select members of management and highly compensated employees may defer receipt of a specified amount or percentage of cash compensation, including annual bonuses. The plan was adopted in part to compensate certain participants for benefits forgone in connection with the GS Acquisition. Participants in this plan include Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson and Isaac. Pursuant to this plan, prior to 2009, McJunkin Red Man Corporation made predetermined annual contributions to each participant’s account, less any discretionary matching contributions made on behalf of the participant by our company to a defined contribution plan for such calendar year. The Committee resolved in 2009 that no further company contributions would be made to participant accounts under this plan. On August 10, 2010, this plan was frozen by resolution of the Committee. As of such date, no company contributions or participant deferral elections have been permitted and any existing participant deferral elections were cancelled. Amounts deferred by participants or contributed by the Company to accounts under the plan prior to August 10, 2010 shall continue to be governed by the applicable provisions of the plan.

If a participant’s account balance as of the beginning of a calendar year is less than $100,000, such balance will be credited quarterly with interest at the “Prime Rate” (as defined in the plan) plus 1%. If a participant’s account balance at the beginning of a calendar year is $100,000 or greater, the participant may choose between being credited quarterly with interest at the Prime Rate plus 1% or having his or her account deemed converted into a number of phantom common units of PVF Holdings LLC. If no investment election is made, a participant’s account will be credited quarterly with interest at the Prime Rate plus 1%. At December 31, 2010, Mr. Underhill had an account balance of $147,813, Mr. Ittner had an account balance of $126,698, Mr. Hutchinson had an account balance of $84,464 and Mr. Isaac had an account balance of $126,698. None of these executives elected to convert their balances into phantom common units. As of December 31, 2007, all existing participants were fully vested in their entire accounts, including contributions by McJunkin Red Man Corporation. People who became participants after December 31, 2007 are fully vested in their elective deferral amounts and will become vested in contributions by McJunkin Red Man Corporation as determined by the administrator of the plan. For additional information, please see the table titled “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation for 2010” below.

Participants receive the vested balance of their accounts, in cash, upon a Separation from Service (as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”)). Such amount is paid in three annual installments (with interest) commencing on January 1 of the second calendar year following the calendar year in which the Separation from Service occurs. In the event of a participant’s death or Permanent Disability (as defined in the plan), or upon a Change in Control (as defined in the plan) of McJunkin Red Man Corporation, the full amount of a participant’s account, vested and unvested, shall be paid within 30 days following such event to the

102

participant’s beneficiary, in the case of death, or to the participant, in the case of Permanent Disability or a Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing regarding the timing of payments, distributions to “specified employees” (as defined in Section 409A) may be required to be delayed in accordance with Section 409A.

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits

The Committee reviews the perquisites and personal benefits provided to certain of the named executive officers and additional executive officers on an annual basis to ensure the reasonableness of such programs. Mr. Wagstaff is provided with an automobile allowance, which is the continuation of a perquisite provided prior to the acquisition of Transmark FCX. Other than Mr. Wagstaff, none of the named executive officers or additional executive officers currently receive any perquisites or other personal benefits.

In addition, our named executive officers and additional executive officers who have entered into employment agreements with the Issuer or an affiliate will be provided certain severance payments and benefits in the event of a termination of their employment under certain circumstances. These agreements are designed to promote stability and continuity of senior management. Additional information regarding payment under these severance provisions is provided below, in the section titled “Potential Payments upon Termination or a Change in Control.”

Relation among Various Components of Compensation

With respect to setting executive compensation amounts generally, since the Red Man Transaction, achieving parity among executives with similar duties and responsibilities has been an important goal as part of our integration process. In determining the amount of compensation of the executive officers attributable to each element of compensation, the Committee considers various factors, including the value of unvested outstanding equity awards, amount of base salary and target bonus. These segments, in total, are then viewed in light of competitiveness of the compensation package in the marketplace and the impact of the executive’s position on the success of the company.

Tax and Accounting Implications

All deferred compensation arrangements have been structured in a manner intended to comply with Section 409A.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During 2010, the Committee consisted of Rhys J. Best, Peter C. Boylan, III (appointed in November 2010), Christopher A.S. Crampton, John F. Daly, Harry K. Hornish, Jr. and Sam B. Rovit (appointed in May 2010), with Mr. Best serving as chairman. Mr. Hornish resigned from the board of directors in January 2011 and Mr. Rovit resigned from the board of directors in February 2011. No member of the Committee was an officer or employee of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries during 2010 and no member of the Committee was formerly an officer of MRC or any of its subsidiaries. In addition, during 2010, none of our executive officers served as a member of a compensation committee or board of directors of any other entity an executive officer of which served as a member of our board.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

We do not have any formal policies regarding stock ownership by directors or officers. We believe that awards made pursuant to our long-term equity programs are sufficient to ensure that the interests of directors and officers remain aligned with those of stockholders.

Risk in Relation to Compensation Programs

We have performed an internal review of all of our material compensation programs and have concluded that there are no plans that provide meaningful incentives for employees, including the named executive officers and additional executive officers, to take risks that would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. Because our current compensation plans have an upside cap on the amount of variable compensation that can be paid under such plan, risk of windfall or excessive compensation is negligible. This limit also has the effect of not encouraging operational or strategic decisions that expose the business to risk.

Summary Compensation Table for 2010

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

Each of the named executive officers and additional executive officers would be entitled to certain payments and benefits following a termination of employment under certain circumstances and upon a change in control. These benefits are summarized below. The amounts of potential payments and benefits reflected in the tables below assume that the relevant trigger event (termination of employment or a change in control, as applicable) took place on December 31, 2010.

The narrative and tables below describe our obligations to each of the named executive officers and additional executive officers pursuant to their employment agreements (in the case of Messrs. Lane, Underhill, Wagstaff and Lake) as well as pursuant to other compensatory arrangements.

Voluntary Separation

In the event of a voluntary separation from employment by a named executive officer or additional executive officer, all unvested profits units in PVF Holdings LLC and all stock option and restricted stock awards in respect of McJunkin Red Man common stock held by such executive would be forfeited. As of December 31, 2010, all stock options held by Messrs. Underhill, Wagstaff, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake were unvested, all restricted stock held by Mr. Lane was unvested, and 75% of options held by Mr. Lane were unvested. As of December 31, 2010, profit units held by Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson and Isaac were one-third vested and all profits units held by Mr. Lake were unvested. The fully vested accounts in the McJunkin Red Man Corporation Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan held by Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson and Isaac would become payable (subject to the requirements of Section 409A). In addition, each named executive officer and additional executive officer would be paid the value of any accrued but unused vacation time as of December 31, 2010.

Termination Not for Cause and Termination for Good Reason

The employment agreements to which Messrs. Lane, Underhill, Wagstaff and Lake are parties provide that if their employment is terminated other than for “Cause” or “Disability” (as such terms are defined in the agreements) or if they resign for “Good Reason” (as such term is defined in the agreements), they are entitled to the following severance payment and benefits:

•  All accrued, but unpaid, obligations (including, but not limited to, salary, bonus, expense reimbursement and vacation pay);

•  In the case of Messrs. Lane and Wagstaff, monthly payments equal to1/12 of base salary at the rate in effect immediately prior to termination and1/12 target annual bonus for 18 months following termination. In the case of Messrs. Underhill and Lake, continuation of base salary for 12 months following termination, at the rate in effect immediately prior to termination;

•  Continuation of medical benefits for 18 months for Messrs. Lane and Wagstaff and 12 months for Messrs. Underhill and Lake or, in each case (except in the case of Mr. Wagstaff), until such earlier time as the executive becomes eligible for medical benefits from a subsequent employer;

109

•  A pro-rata annual bonus for the fiscal year in which termination occurs, based on actual performance through the end of the fiscal year; and

•  Solely in the case of Mr. Lane, a pro-rata portion of the stock options granted to him, which are currently held by Andy & Cindy Lane Family, L.P., would become vested. However, the restricted stock granted to Mr. Lane, which is currently held by Andy & Cindy Lane Family, L.P., would be forfeited.

The payments and the provision of benefits described in this paragraph are generally subject to the execution of a release and compliance with restrictive covenants prohibiting competition, solicitation of employees and interference with business relationships during employment and thereafter during the applicable restriction period. These restrictions apply to each of Messrs. Lane, Underhill, Wagstaff and Lake during their employment and for 18 months following termination for Messrs. Lane and Wagstaff, and for 12 months following termination for Messrs. Underhill and Lake. In addition, Messrs. Lane, Underhill, Lake and Wagstaff are subject to perpetual restrictive covenants regarding confidentiality, non-disparagement and proprietary rights.

As of December 31, 2010, all stock options held by Messrs. Underhill, Wagstaff, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake were unvested, all restricted stock held by Mr. Lane was unvested and 75% of options held by Mr. Lane were unvested. As of December 31, 2010, profits units held by Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson and Isaac were one-third vested and all profits units held by Mr. Lake were unvested. The vesting schedules of these profits units, stock options and shares of restricted stock are described in the narrative following the table titled “Outstanding Equity Awards at 2010 Fiscal Year End.” In the event of a termination of employment by us without Cause (as defined in their respective agreements) or upon an executive’s resignation for Good Reason (as defined in their respective agreements), the profits units held by Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake that are currently unvested would be forfeited pursuant to the PVF LLC Agreement.

The fully vested account in the McJunkin Red Man Corporation Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan held by certain named executive officers and additional executive officers would become payable (subject to the requirements of Section 409A) upon a termination by us of such executive officer’s employment other than for Cause or a termination of employment by such executive officer for Good Reason.

In addition, each named executive officer and additional executive officers would also be paid the value of any accrued but unused vacation time as of December 31, 2010.

(1)	These amounts represent accrued but unused vacation time as of December 31, 2010.
(2)	Each of the named executive officers and additional executive officers has an annual target bonus of 100% of annual base salary in effect at the beginning of the relevant fiscal year. Assuming a termination date of December 31, 2010, each of Messrs. Lane, Underhill, Wagstaff, Ittner, Hutchinson and Lake would be entitled to receive 57% of his target annual incentive bonus and Mr. Isaac would be entitled to receive 56% of his target annual bonus.
(3)	In the case of Mr. Lane, the amount in this column represents the value of the pro-rata acceleration of the vesting of his stock options. Because the exercise price of these options is $12.48 per share, which was above the per share value of the company’s stock as of December 31, 2010, which was $7.51, there would be no value realized upon this accelerated vesting. The restricted stock award granted to Mr. Lane would not be subject to accelerated vesting under these circumstances. In the case of Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and

110

Lake, all of their unvested profits units held as of December 31, 2010 would be forfeited as of such date. Additionally, because the exercise price of awarded options is $11.42 for Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake and $11.44 for Mr. Wagstaff, there would be no value realized upon this accelerated vesting.

Termination by Us for Cause

Upon a termination by us for Cause (as defined in the stock option plan), pursuant to the applicable award agreements, stock options held by Messrs. Lane, Underhill, Wagstaff, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake and restricted stock held by Mr. Lane, whether vested or unvested, would in each case be forfeited immediately for no consideration. Under these circumstances, the profits units held by Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake whether or not vested, would also be forfeited immediately for no consideration.

In addition, as described in the narrative above following the table titled “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation for 2010,” the fully vested accounts in the McJunkin Red Man Corporation Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan would become payable (subject to the requirements of Section 409A).

Each named executive officer and additional executive officer would also be paid the value of any accrued but unused vacation time as of December 31, 2010.

Termination due to Death or Disability

Pursuant to the employment agreements with Messrs. Lane, Underhill, Wagstaff and Lake, upon a termination of employment due to death or disability, they (or their beneficiaries) would be entitled to receive a pro-rata portion of the annual bonus for the fiscal year in which termination occurs, based on actual performance through the end of the fiscal year.

Pursuant to the applicable award agreements, all unvested stock options and restricted stock awards granted to the named executive officers and additional executive officers would become fully vested in the event of a termination due to death or Disability (as defined in the applicable plan). Pursuant to the PVF LLC Agreement, all unvested profits units held by Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake would become fully vested and nonforfeitable in the event of a termination due to death or Disability (as defined in the PVF LLC Agreement). In the event of termination due to death or Permanent Disability (as such term is defined in the McJunkin Red Man Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan), the full amount of each account, whether or not vested, would be payable. Each named executive officer and additional executive officer (or their beneficiaries) would also be paid the value of any accrued but unused vacation time as of December 31, 2010.

These amounts represent accrued but unused vacation time as of December 31, 2010.

(2)

In the case of Mr. Lane, the amount in this column includes the value of the pro-rata acceleration of the vesting of his unvested stock options and the full acceleration of vesting of his entire restricted stock award. Because the exercise price of his options is $12.48 per share, which was above the per share value of the company’s stock as of December 31, 2010, which was $7.51, there would be no value realized upon this accelerated vesting. The value of the accelerated vesting of Mr. Lane’s restricted stock is based on the per share value of the company’s stock as of December 31, 2010, which was $7.51. In the case of Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake, all of their profits units and stock options, and in the case of Mr. Wagstaff, stock options, held as of December 31, 2010 would become fully vested as of such date. With respect to profits units, the value realized upon such acceleration is based on the value of profits units in PVF Holdings LLC as of December 31, 2010, which was $3,373.23 per unit. With respect to options, because the exercise price of their options is $11.42 per share for Messrs. Underhill, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake, and $11.44 per share for Mr. Wagstaff, which was above the per share value of the company’s stock as of December 31, 2010, which was $7.51, there would be no value realized upon this accelerated vesting.

Change in Control

The PVF LLC Agreement provides that in the event of a Transaction (as defined in the PVF LLC Agreement), profits units will become fully vested and nonforfeitable. This accelerated vesting of the profits units was negotiated as part of the PVF LLC Agreement in connection with overall negotiations relating to the GS Acquisition. The PVF LLC Agreement defines “Transaction” as (i) any event which results in the GSCP Members (as defined in the PVF LLC Agreement) and its or their Affiliates (as defined in the PVF LLC Agreement) ceasing to directly or indirectly beneficially own, in the aggregate, at least 35% of the equity interests of McJunkin Red Man Corporation that they beneficially owned directly or indirectly as of January 31, 2007; or (ii) in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, the occurrence of the following event: a majority of the outstanding voting power of PVF Holdings LLC, McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation or McJunkin Red Man Corporation, or substantially all of the assets of McJunkin Red Man Corporation, shall have been acquired or otherwise become beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any Person (as defined in the PVF LLC Agreement) (other than any Member (as defined in the PVF LLC Agreement) on the effective date of the PVF LLC Agreement or any of its or their affiliates, or PVF Holdings LLC or any of its affiliates) or any two or more Persons (other than any Member on the date of the PVF LLC Agreement or any of its or their affiliates, or McJunkin Red Man Corporation or any of its affiliates) acting as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group, entity or association acting in concert for the purpose of voting, acquiring, holding or disposing of the voting power of PVF Holdings LLC, McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation or McJunkin Red Man Corporation; it being understood that, for this purpose, the acquisition or beneficial ownership of voting securities by the public shall not be an acquisition or constitute beneficial ownership by any Person or Persons acting in concert. The table below assumes that a Transaction as so defined has occurred.

The McJ Holding Corporation 2007 Stock Option Plan and the McJ Holding Corporation 2007 Restricted Stock Plan, pursuant to which stock options and restricted stock have been granted to our named executive officers and additional executive officers, provide that in the event of a Transaction (as defined in the applicable plan), outstanding stock options and restricted stock shall become fully vested (and exercisable in the case of options). The

112

definition of “Transaction” in each of the plans is the same as that set forth in the PVF LLC Agreement. The table below assumes that a Transaction as so defined has occurred.

Pursuant to the McJunkin Red Man Corporation Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, the full amount of a participant’s account becomes vested to the extent not already vested upon a Change in Control and shall be paid within thirty days of such Change in Control. The plan defines “Change in Control” as, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, the occurrence of the following event: a majority of the outstanding voting power of PVF Holdings LLC, McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation or McJunkin Red Man Corporation, or substantially all of the assets of McJunkin Red Man Corporation, shall have been acquired or otherwise become beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any Person (as defined in the plan) (other than any Member (as defined in the PVF LLC Agreement) or any of its or their affiliates, or PVF Holdings LLC or any of its affiliates) or any two or more Persons (other than any Member or any of its or their affiliates, or PVF Holdings LLC or any of its affiliates) acting as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group, entity or association acting in concert for the purpose of voting, acquiring, holding or disposing of the voting power of PVF Holdings LLC, McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation or McJunkin Red Man Corporation; it being understood that, for this purpose, the acquisition or beneficial ownership of voting securities by the public shall not be an acquisition or constitute beneficial ownership by any Person or Persons acting in concert. The table below assumes that a Change in Control as so defined has occurred. The accelerated vesting of accounts under the McJunkin Red Man Corporation Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan in the event of a Change in Control does not provide an extra benefit to the named executive officers with accounts because each of their accounts was fully vested as of the effective date of the plan, which was December 31, 2007.

In the case of Mr. Lane, all restricted stock and unvested stock options he held as of December 31, 2010 would become fully vested as of such date. Because the exercise price of his options is $12.48 per share, which was above the per share value of the company’s stock as of December 31, 2010, which was $7.51, there would be no value realized upon this accelerated vesting. The value of the accelerated vesting of Mr. Lane’s restricted stock is based on the per share value of the company’s stock as of December 31, 2010, which was $7.51. In the case of Messrs. Underhill, Wagstaff, Ittner, Hutchinson, Isaac and Lake, all of the profits units and stock options they held as of December 31, 2010 would become fully vested as of such date. With respect to profits units, the value realized upon such acceleration is based on the value of profits units in PVF Holdings LLC as of December 31, 2010, which was $3,373.23 per unit. With respect to options, because the exercise price of their options is $11.42 per share, which was above the per share value of the company’s stock as of December 31, 2010, which was $7.51, there would be no value realized upon this accelerated vesting.

Craig Ketchum owns a 25% interest in Prideco, LLC. We paid Prideco, LLC an aggregate rental amount of approximately $3.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, $2.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2009, and $1.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2010.

Under four separate real property leases, we lease office and warehouse space for the wholesale distribution of pipe, valves and fittings from Prideco, LLC. The total rental amount under these leases was approximately $0.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, $0.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2009, and $0.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2010. The location of the leased property, monthly rent in 2010, term, expiration date, square footage of the leased premises and renewal option for each of these leases are included in the table below:

	Monthly 2010					Square
Location	Rent		Term		Expiration	Feet		Renewal Option
Artesia, NM	$	2,200		5 years	May 31, 2013		8,750	One five-year renewal option
Lovington, NM	$	2,350		3 years	September 30, 2012		6,000	Open option to renew
Tulsa, OK	$	3,000		3 years	March 31, 2012		7,980	One five-year renewal option
Woodward, OK	$	3,500		5 years	July 31, 2012		6,000	None

Additionally, under one master lease, Prideco, LLC leases approximately 430 trucks, cars and sports utility vehicles to us. All of these vehicles are used in our operations. Under the master lease, most vehicles are leased for a term of 36 months. The total rental amount under this lease was approximately $3.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, $2.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 and $1.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2010.

We believe the rental amounts under our leases with Prideco, LLC are generally comparable to market rates negotiable among unrelated third parties.

McJunkin Red Man Corporation leases certain land and buildings from Hansford Associates Limited Partnership, a limited partnership in which H. B.

We believe that the rental amounts under McJunkin Red Man Corporation’s leases with Hansford Associates Limited Partnership are generally comparable to market rates negotiable among unrelated third parties.

Transactions with Appalachian Leasing Company

McJunkin Red Man Corporation leases certain land and buildings from Appalachian Leasing Company, an entity in which David Fox, III, a former executive officer of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation, and certain of Mr. Fox’s immediate family members have an ownership interest.

Under two separate leases, McJunkin Red Man Corporation leases office and warehouse space for the wholesale distribution of pipe, valves and fittings from Appalachian Leasing Company. The location of the leased property, monthly rent as of December 2010, term, expiration date, square footage of the leases premises and renewal option for each of these leases are included in the table below:

	Monthly Rent
	as of					Square

Corbin, KY	$	4,473		3 years	May 31, 2012		8,000	None

Transactions with Executive Officers and Directors

Under the terms of the merger agreement for the GS Acquisition, McJunkin Red Man Corporation is required to use its commercially reasonable efforts promptly following the closing of the merger to sell certain of its assets (the “Non-Core Assets”) for cash and to distribute 95% of the net proceeds of such sales, less 40% of taxable gains, to McJunkin Red Man Corporation’s shareholders of record immediately prior to the merger, including H.B. Wehrle, III. The remaining Non-Core Asset that has not yet been sold is certain real property located in Charleston, West Virginia, including a building. At December 31, 2010, this asset had a net book value of approximately $1.4 million. McJunkin Red Man Corporation is currently in the process of selling this remaining Non-Core Asset.

In connection with the GS Acquisition, on December 4, 2006 we entered into an indemnity agreement with certain former shareholders of McJunkin Red Man Corporation, including H.B. Wehrle, III and Stephen D. Wehrle. Under the indemnity agreement, certain former shareholders of McJunkin Red Man Corporation agreed to jointly and severally indemnify (i) McJunkin Red Man Corporation, (ii) McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation and (iii) the wholly owned subsidiary of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation which merged with and into McJunkin Red Man Corporation in connection with the GS Acquisition, and their respective shareholders, members, partners, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants, affiliates, agents, other advisors and successors, from and against all costs incurred by such indemnified parties relating to the holding and disposition of certain of the Non-Core Assets, and the distribution of net proceeds with respect to such disposition, to the extent the costs for each Non-Core Asset exceeds the net proceeds received in the sale of such asset.

123

Additionally, the indemnity agreement provided that from and after the effective time of the merger that was consummated in connection with the GS Acquisition, the indemnifying shareholders would jointly and severally indemnify the indemnified parties for (i) any amounts paid or payable by McJunkin Red Man Corporation or any of its subsidiaries to any of its officers, directors or employees in excess of $965,000 in the nature of any “stay-pay bonuses” as a result of the merger, other than payments to certain specific employees, and (ii) any failure to properly withhold any amounts required to be withheld by McJunkin Red Man Corporation or any of its subsidiaries relating to stay-pay bonuses or any similar such payments (which indemnity only applied to withholding obligations that arose before the effective time of the merger on January 31, 2007).

Registration Rights Agreement

Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of October 31, 2007, as amended, by and among PVF Holdings LLC, the Goldman Sachs Funds and certain holders of common units of PVF Holdings LLC, PVF Holdings LLC may be required to register the sale of common units held by the Goldman Sachs Funds. Under the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, the Goldman Sachs Funds have the right to request that PVF Holdings LLC use its reasonable best efforts to register the sale of common units held by the Goldman Sachs Funds on its behalf on up to five occasions. The Goldman Sachs Funds’ right to demand registration is subject to certain limitations, including PVF Holdings LLC’s right to decline to cause a registration statement for a demand registration to be declared effective within 180 days after the effective date of any of our other registration statements. In addition, the Goldman Sachs Funds and certain holders of common units of PVF Holdings LLC that are party to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement and their respective transferees, will have the ability to exercise certain piggyback registration rights. The Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement also includes provisions dealing with allocation of securities included in registration statements, registration procedures, indemnification, contribution and allocation of expenses.

Management Stockholders Agreement

Each holder of a stock optionand/or restricted stock award, including the members of the board of directors of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation who have received awards, is a party to a management stockholders agreement. Employees or directors that purchase common stock of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation must also become a party to the management stockholders agreement. The management stockholders agreement sets forth the terms and conditions governing common stock of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation, including vested restricted stock and shares of common stock received upon the exercise of stock option awards.

The management stockholders agreement provides that upon the termination of a shareholder’s employment with McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation or its affiliates (including, in the case of a non-employee member of our board of directors, the termination of his or her service on our board), McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation may exercise its right to purchase from shareholder (or his or her permitted transferee) all or a portion of the shareholder’s vested restricted stock, common stock received upon the exercise of the shareholder’s stock options,and/or common stock purchased by the shareholder. In the event of a termination by the company or its affiliates for cause (as defined in the management stockholders agreement), the call option price would be the lesser of (i) the fair market value on the date of repurchase (determined in accordance with the management stockholders agreement) or

125

(ii) the price paid for the stock by such shareholder. Under all other circumstances, the call option price would be the fair market value of the stock subject to the call option on the date of repurchase (determined in accordance with the management stockholders agreement). Prior to the consummation of an initial public offering of our common stock, if PVF Holdings LLC proposes to (i) transfer common stock to any person who is not its affiliate or (ii) effect an Exit Event (as defined in the management stockholders agreement), PVF Holdings LLC may require shareholders to transfer a proportionate number of their shares of common stock to such person. In such event, shareholders would receive the same price for their common stock as PVF Holdings LLC receives for its common stock and would be required to pay for a proportionate share of all transaction expenses.

Other than as described above in this section, the management stockholders agreement prohibits the transfer of any shares of common stock of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation (including vested shares restricted stock) by a shareholder, other than following the death of such holder pursuant to the terms of any trust or will of the deceased or by the laws of intestate succession.

Our directors hold various equity interests in respect of our shares of common stock. Andrew R. Lane, Leonard Anthony, Cornelis Linse and John Perkins hold shares of our common stock that they have purchased for fair market value; Andrew R. Lane and Leonard Anthony hold awards of restricted stock; and Andrew R. Lane, Leonard Anthony, Rhys Best, Peter C. Boylan III, Gerard P. Krans, John Perkins and Dr. Cornelis A. Linse hold stock options to purchase shares of our common stock. Accordingly, each of them is a party to the management stockholders agreement. Upon the consummation of an initial public offering of our common stock, none of Messrs, Lane, Anthony, Linse or Perkins will be a party to the management stockholders agreement in respect of common stock purchased by them, and neither Mr. Lane nor Mr. Anthony will be a party to the management stockholders agreement in respect of common stock acquired by them upon exercise of their stock options.

Related Party Transaction Policy

We have in place a formal policy for the review, approval, ratification and disclosure of related party transactions. This policy applies to any transaction, arrangement or relationship (or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) in which we were, are or will be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any related party had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. The audit committee of the board of directors of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation must review, approve and ratify a related party transaction if such transaction is consistent with the Related Party Transaction Policy and is on terms, taken as a whole, which the audit committee believes are no less favorable to us than could be obtained in an arm’s-length transaction with an unrelated third party, unless the audit committee otherwise determines that the transaction is not in our best interests. Any related party transaction or modification of such transaction which the board of directors of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation has approved or ratified by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors, who do not have a direct or indirect material interest in such transaction, does not need to be approved or ratified by the audit committee. In addition, related party transactions involving compensation will be approved by the compensation committee in lieu of our audit committee.

In addition we are bound by a provision in the PVF LLC Agreement which provides that neither we nor any of our subsidiaries may enter into any transactions with any of the Goldman Sachs Funds or any of their affiliates except for transactions which (i) are otherwise permitted or contemplated by the PVF LLC Agreement or (ii) are on fair and reasonable terms not materially less favorable to us than we would obtain in a hypothetical comparable arm’s length transaction with a person that was not an affiliate of the Goldman Sachs Funds. Our credit facilities also contain covenants which, subject to certain exceptions, require us to conduct all transactions with any of our affiliates on terms that are substantially as favorable to us as we would obtain in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a person that is not an affiliate.

Board of Directors

As a private company whose securities are not listed on any national securities exchange, McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation is not required to have a majority of, or any, independent directors. Further, even if McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation were listed on a national securities exchange, because Goldman, Sachs & Co. beneficially owns more than 50% of the membership interests of PVF Holdings LLC and PVF Holdings LLC owns

126

a substantial majority of the common stock of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation, McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation would be deemed a “controlled company” under the rules of the NYSE and Nasdaq and, therefore, would not need to have a majority of independent directors or all-independent compensation and nominating committees. However, the rules of the SEC require us to disclose in this prospectus which of our directors would be considered independent within the meaning of the rules of a national securities exchange that we may choose. McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation currently has five directors who would be considered independent within the definitions of either the NYSE or Nasdaq: Messrs. Leonard M. Anthony, Rhys J. Best, Peter C. Boylan III, Dr. Cornelis A. Linse and John A. Perkins.

127

THE EXCHANGE OFFER

Purpose of the Exchange Offer

In connection with the sale of the outstanding notes on December 21, 2009 and February 11, 2010, respectively, we, the guarantors and the initial purchasers entered into exchange and registration rights agreements. Pursuant to the exchange and registration rights agreements, we and the guarantors agreed to file with the SEC a registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act with respect to publicly registered notes having identical terms to the outstanding notes. Upon the effectiveness of the exchange offer registration statement, we and the guarantors will, pursuant to the exchange offer, offer to the holders of outstanding notes who are able to make certain representations the opportunity to exchange their notes for the exchange notes.

If we and the guarantors fail to file the exchange offer registration statement within 470 days of the date of original issuance of the outstanding notes, or by April 5, 2011, if the exchange offer registration statement is not declared effective within 110 days of April 5, 2011, or July 24, 2011, if the exchange offer has not been completed within 30 business days of July 24, 2011, or September 6, 2011, or if the exchange offer registration statement is declared effective but thereafter ceases to be effective or usable in connection with resales or exchanges of the outstanding notes during the periods specified in the exchange and registration rights agreements, then we will pay additional interest to each holder of the outstanding notes, with respect to the first90-day period immediately following the occurrence of the first registration default in an amount equal to one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum on the principal amount of notes held by such holder. The amount of the additional interest will increase by an additional one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum on the principal amount of notes with respect to each subsequent90-day period until all registration defaults have been cured, up to a maximum amount of additional interest for all registration defaults of 1.0% per annum. There can exist only one registration default at any one time.

Each broker-dealer that receives the exchange notes for its own account in exchange for outstanding notes, where such outstanding notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. See “Plan of Distribution.”

A copy of the registration rights agreement is attached as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

Terms of the Exchange Offer

This prospectus and the accompanying letter of transmittal together constitute the exchange offer. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus and in the letter of transmittal, we will accept for exchange outstanding notes, which are properly tendered on or before the expiration date and are not withdrawn as permitted below, for exchange notes. The expiration date for this exchange offer is 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on          , 2011, or such later date and time to which we, in our sole discretion, extend the exchange offer.

The form and terms of the exchange notes are the same as the form and terms of the outstanding notes, except that:

the exchange notes will have been registered under the Securities Act;

the exchange notes will not bear the restrictive legends restricting their transfer under the Securities Act; and

the exchange notes will not contain the registration rights and additional interest provisions contained in the outstanding notes.

Notes tendered in the exchange offer must be in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

We expressly reserve the right, in our sole discretion:

to extend the expiration date;

128

to delay accepting any outstanding notes due to an extension of the exchange offer;

if the condition set forth below under “— Condition to the Exchange Offer” has not been satisfied, to terminate the exchange offer and not accept any outstanding notes for exchange; or

to amend the exchange offer in any manner.

We will give oral or written notice of any extension, delay, non-acceptance, termination or amendment as promptly as practicable by a public announcement, and in the case of an extension, no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date. Without limiting the manner in which we may choose to make a public announcement of any extension, delay, non-acceptance, termination or amendment, we shall have no obligation to publish, advertise or otherwise communicate any such public announcement, other than by making a timely release to an appropriate news agency, which may be an agency controlled by us. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a material change in the exchange offer, including our waiver of a material condition, we will extend the exchange offer period if necessary so that at least five business days remain in the exchange offer following notice of the material change.

During an extension, all outstanding notes previously tendered will remain subject to the exchange offer and may be accepted for exchange by us. Any outstanding notes not accepted for exchange for any reason will be returned without cost to the holder that tendered them promptly after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer.

How to Tender Outstanding Notes for Exchange

When the holder of outstanding notes tenders, and we accept such notes for exchange pursuant to that tender, a binding agreement between us and the tendering holder is created, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this prospectus and the accompanying letter of transmittal. Except as set forth below, a holder of outstanding notes who wishes to tender such notes for exchange must, on or prior to the expiration date:

transmit a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal, including all other documents required by such letter of transmittal, to U.S. Bank National Association, which will act as the exchange agent, at the address set forth below under the heading “— The Exchange Agent”;

comply with DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program, or ATOP, procedures described below; or

if outstanding notes are tendered pursuant to the book-entry procedures set forth below, the tendering holder must transmit an agent’s message to the exchange agent as per DTC, Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear system (“Euroclear”), or Clearstream Banking S.A. (“Clearstream”) (as appropriate) procedures.

In addition, either:

the exchange agent must receive the certificates for the outstanding notes and the letter of transmittal;

the exchange agent must receive, prior to the expiration date, a timely confirmation of the book-entry transfer of the outstanding notes being tendered, along with the letter of transmittal or an agent’s message; or

the holder must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below.

The term “agent’s message” means a message, transmitted to DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as appropriate, and received by the exchange agent and forming a part of a book-entry transfer, or “book-entry confirmation,” which states that DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as appropriate, has received an express acknowledgement that the tendering holder agrees to be bound by the letter of transmittal and that we may enforce the letter of transmittal against such holder.

The method of delivery of the outstanding notes, the letters of transmittal and all other required documents is at the election and risk of the holders. If such delivery is by mail, we recommend registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested. In all cases, you should allow sufficient time to assure timely delivery. No letters of transmittal or outstanding notes should be sent directly to us.

129

Signatures on a letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an eligible institution unless the outstanding notes surrendered for exchange are tendered:

by a registered holder of the outstanding notes; or

for the account of an eligible institution.

An “eligible institution” is a firm which is a member of a registered national securities exchange or a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States.

If outstanding notes are registered in the name of a person other than the signer of the letter of transmittal, the outstanding notes surrendered for exchange must be endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer or exchange, in satisfactory form as determined by us in our sole discretion, duly executed by the registered holder with the holder’s signature guaranteed by an eligible institution.

We will determine all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of outstanding notes tendered for exchange in our sole discretion. Our determination will be final and binding. We reserve the absolute right to:

reject any and all tenders of any outstanding note improperly tendered;

refuse to accept any outstanding note if, in our judgment or the judgment of our counsel, acceptance of the outstanding note may be deemed unlawful; and

waive any defects or irregularities or conditions of the exchange offer as to any particular outstanding note based on the specific facts or circumstances presented either before or after the expiration date, including the right to waive the ineligibility of any holder who seeks to tender outstanding notes in the exchange offer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we do not expect to treat any holder of outstanding notes differently from other holders to the extent they present the same facts or circumstances.

Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of the exchange offer as to any particular outstanding notes either before or after the expiration date, including the letter of transmittal and the instructions to it, will be final and binding on all parties. Holders must cure any defects and irregularities in connection with tenders of notes for exchange within such reasonable period of time as we will determine, unless we waive such defects or irregularities. Neither we, the exchange agent nor any other person shall be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity with respect to any tender of outstanding notes for exchange, nor shall any of us incur any liability for failure to give such notification.

If a person or persons other than the registered holder or holders of the outstanding notes tendered for exchange signs the letter of transmittal, the tendered outstanding notes must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate powers of attorney, in either case signed exactly as the name or names of the registered holder or holders that appear on the outstanding notes.

If trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity sign the letter of transmittal or any outstanding notes or any power of attorney, these persons should so indicate when signing, and you must submit proper evidence satisfactory to us of those persons’ authority to so act unless we waive this requirement.

By tendering, each holder will represent to us that: (i) it is not an “affiliate” of the Issuer, as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, or if it is such an “affiliate,” it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable; (ii) it is not engaged in and does not intend to engage in, and has no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution of the exchange notes; (iii) it is acquiring the exchange notes in its ordinary course of business; (iv) if it is a broker-dealer that holds outstanding notes that were acquired for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities (other than outstanding notes acquired directly from the Issuer or any of our affiliates), it will deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resales of the exchange notes

130

received by it in the exchange offer; (v) if it is a broker-dealer, that it did not purchase the outstanding notes to be exchanged in the exchange offer from the Issuer or any of its affiliates; and (vi) it is not acting on behalf of any person who could not truthfully and completely make the representation contained in the foregoing subclauses (i) through (v).

If any holder or any other person receiving exchange notes from such holder is an “affiliate,” as defined under Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of us, or is engaged in or intends to engage in or has an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the notes to be acquired in the exchange offer in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act, the holder or any other person:

•  may not rely on applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC; and

•  must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction.

Each broker-dealer who acquired its outstanding notes as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, and thereafter receives exchange notes issued for its own account in the exchange offer, must acknowledge that it will deliver this prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes issued in the exchange offer. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. See “Plan of Distribution” for a discussion of the exchange and resale obligations of broker-dealers.

Acceptance of Outstanding Notes for Exchange; Delivery of Exchange Notes Issued in the Exchange Offer

Upon satisfaction or waiver of all the conditions to the exchange offer, we will accept, promptly after the expiration date, all outstanding notes properly tendered and will issue exchange notes registered under the Securities Act in exchange for the tendered outstanding notes. For purposes of the exchange offer, we shall be deemed to have accepted properly tendered outstanding notes for exchange when, as and if we have given oral or written notice to the exchange agent, with written confirmation of any oral notice to be given promptly thereafter, and complied with the applicable provisions of the exchange and registration rights agreements. See “— Condition to the Exchange Offer” for a discussion of the condition that must be satisfied before we accept any outstanding notes for exchange.

For each outstanding note accepted for exchange, the holder will receive an exchange note registered under the Securities Act having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered outstanding note. Registered holders of exchange notes issued in the exchange offer on the relevant record date for the first interest payment date following the consummation of the exchange offer will receive interest accruing from the most recent date to which interest has been paid. Under the exchange and registration rights agreements, we may be required to make payments of additional interest to the holders of the outstanding notes under circumstances relating to the timing of the exchange offer.

In all cases, we will issue exchange notes for outstanding notes that are accepted for exchange only after the exchange agent timely receives:

certificates for such outstanding notes or a timely book-entry confirmation of such outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as appropriate;

a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or an agent’s message; and

all other required documents.

If for any reason set forth in the terms and conditions of the exchange offer we do not accept any tendered outstanding notes, or if a holder submits outstanding notes for a greater principal amount than the holder desires to exchange, we will return such unaccepted or nonexchanged notes without cost to the tendering holder. In the case of outstanding notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s account at DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, the nonexchanged notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream,. We will return the outstanding notes or have them credited to DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream accounts, as appropriate, promptly after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer.

131

Book-Entry Transfer

The participant should transmit its acceptance to DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, on or prior to the expiration date or comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below. DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will verify the acceptance and then send to the exchange agent confirmation of the book-entry transfer. The confirmation of the book-entry transfer will include an agent’s message confirming that DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, has received an express acknowledgment from the participant that the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the letter of transmittal and that we may enforce the letter of transmittal against such participant. Delivery of exchange notes issued in the exchange offer may be effected through book-entry transfer at DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be. However, the letter of transmittal or facsimile thereof or an agent’s message, with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents, must:

be transmitted to and received by the exchange agent at the address set forth below under “— The Exchange Agent” on or prior to the expiration date; or

comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below.

DTC’s ATOP program is the only method of processing exchange offers through DTC. To accept an exchange offer through ATOP, participants in DTC must send electronic instructions to DTC through DTC’s communication system. In addition, such tendering participants should deliver a copy of the letter of transmittal to the exchange agent unless an agent’s message is transmitted in lieu thereof. DTC is obligated to communicate those electronic instructions to the exchange agent through an agent’s message. To tender outstanding notes through ATOP, the electronic instructions sent to DTC and transmitted by DTC to the exchange agent must contain the character by which the participant acknowledges its receipt of and agrees to be bound by the letter of transmittal. Any instruction through ATOP is at your risk and such instruction will be deemed made only when actually received by the exchange agent.

In order for an acceptance of an exchange offer through ATOP to be valid, an agent’s message must be transmitted to and received by the exchange agent prior to the expiration date, or the guaranteed delivery procedures below must be complied with. Delivery of instructions to DTC does not constitute delivery to the exchange agent.

Guaranteed Delivery Procedures

If a holder of outstanding notes desires to tender such notes and the holder’s outstanding notes are not immediately available, or time will not permit the holder’s outstanding notes or other required documents to reach the exchange agent before the expiration date, or the procedure for book-entry transfer cannot be completed on a timely basis, a tender may be effected if:

the holder tenders the outstanding notes through an eligible institution;

prior to the expiration date, the exchange agent receives from such eligible institution a properly completed and duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery, acceptable to us, by mail, hand delivery, overnight courier or facsimile transmission, setting forth the name and address of the holder of the outstanding notes tendered, the certificate number or numbers of such outstanding notes and the amount of the outstanding notes being tendered. The notice of guaranteed delivery shall state that the tender is being made and guarantee that within three New York Stock Exchange trading days after the expiration date, the certificates for all physically tendered outstanding notes, in proper form for transfer, or a book-entry confirmation, as the case may be, together with a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or agent’s message with any required signature guarantees and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal will be deposited by the eligible institution with the exchange agent; and

the exchange agent receives the certificates for all physically tendered outstanding notes, in proper form for transfer, or a book-entry confirmation, as the case may be, together with a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or agent’s message with any required signature guarantees and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal, within three New York Stock Exchange trading days after the expiration date.

132

Withdrawal Rights

You may withdraw tenders of your outstanding notes at any time prior to the expiration of the offer.

For a withdrawal to be effective, you must send a written notice of withdrawal to the exchange agent at the address set forth below under “— The Exchange Agent.” Any such notice of withdrawal must:

specify the name of the person that has tendered the outstanding notes to be withdrawn;

identify the outstanding notes to be withdrawn, including the principal amount of such outstanding notes; and

where certificates for outstanding notes are transmitted, specify the name in which outstanding notes are registered, if different from that of the withdrawing holder.

If certificates for outstanding notes have been delivered or otherwise identified to the exchange agent, then, prior to the release of such certificates, the withdrawing holder must also submit the serial numbers of the particular certificates to be withdrawn and signed notice of withdrawal with signatures guaranteed by an eligible institution unless such holder is an eligible institution. If outstanding notes have been tendered pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer described above, any notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, to be credited with the withdrawn notes and otherwise comply with the procedures of such facility. We will determine all questions as to the validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt) of notices of withdrawal and our determination will be final and binding on all parties. Any tendered notes so withdrawn will be deemed not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offer. Any outstanding notes which have been tendered for exchange but which are not exchanged for any reason will be returned to the holder thereof without cost to such holder. In the case of outstanding notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s account at DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, the outstanding notes withdrawn will be unlocked with DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, for the outstanding notes. The outstanding notes will be returned promptly after withdrawal, rejection of tender or termination of the exchange offer. Properly withdrawn outstanding notes may be re-tendered by following one of the procedures described under “— How to Tender Outstanding Notes for Exchange” above at any time on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date.

Condition to the Exchange Offer

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this exchange offer, we are not required to accept the outstanding notes in the exchange offer or to issue the exchange notes, and we may terminate or amend the exchange offer, if at any time before the expiration of the exchange offer that acceptance or issuance would violate any applicable law or any interpretations of the staff of the SEC.

The preceding condition is for our sole benefit, and we may assert it regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such condition. We may waive the preceding condition in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in our sole discretion. Our failure at any time to exercise the foregoing right shall not be deemed a waiver of such right, and such right shall be deemed an ongoing right which we may assert at any time and from time to time.

The exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum aggregate principal amount of outstanding notes being tendered in the exchange.

133

Fees and Expenses

We will not make any payment to brokers, dealers or others soliciting acceptance of the exchange offer except for reimbursement of mailing expenses.

The cash expenses to be incurred in connection with the exchange offer will be paid by us.

Transfer Taxes

Holders who tender their outstanding notes for exchange notes will not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in connection with the exchange. If, however, exchange notes issued in the exchange offer or substitute outstanding notes not tendered or exchanged are to be delivered to, or are to be issued in the name of, any person other than the holder of the outstanding notes tendered, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of outstanding notes in connection with the exchange offer, then the holder must pay any applicable transfer taxes, whether imposed on the registered holder or on any other person. If satisfactory evidence of payment of, or exemption from, transfer taxes is not submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of the transfer taxes will be billed directly to the tendering holder.

Consequences of Failure to Exchange Outstanding Notes

Holders who desire to tender their outstanding notes in exchange for exchange notes registered under the Securities Act should allow sufficient time to ensure timely delivery. Neither the exchange agent nor we are under any duty to give notification of defects or irregularities with respect to the tenders of outstanding notes for exchange.

Outstanding notes that are not tendered or are tendered but not accepted will, following the consummation of the exchange offer, continue to accrue interest and to be subject to the provisions in the indenture regarding the transfer and exchange of the outstanding notes and the existing restrictions on transfer set forth in the legend on the outstanding notes and in the offering circulars dated December 16, 2009 and February 8, 2010, respectively, relating

134

to the outstanding notes. After completion of this exchange offer, we will have no further obligation to provide for the registration under the Securities Act of those outstanding notes except in limited circumstances with respect to specific types of holders of outstanding notes, and we do not intend to register the outstanding notes under the Securities Act. In general, outstanding notes, unless registered under the Securities Act, may not be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

Upon completion of the exchange offer, holders of any remaining outstanding notes will not be entitled to any further registration rights under the exchange and registration rights agreements, except under limited circumstances.

Exchanging Outstanding Notes

Based on interpretations of the staff of the SEC, as set forth in no-action letters to third parties, we believe that the notes issued in the exchange offer may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred by holders of such notes, other than by any holder that is a broker-dealer who acquired outstanding notes for its own account as a result of market-making or other trading activities or by any holder which is an “affiliate” of us within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act. The exchange notes may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, if:

the holder is not a broker-dealer tendering notes acquired directly from us;

the person acquiring the exchange notes in the exchange offer, whether or not that person is a holder, is acquiring them in the ordinary course of its business;

neither the holder nor that other person has any arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the exchange notes issued in the exchange offer; and

the holder is not our affiliate.

However, the SEC has not considered the exchange offer in the context of a no-action letter, and we cannot guarantee that the staff of the SEC would make a similar determination with respect to the exchange offer as in these other circumstances.

Each holder must furnish a written representation, at our request, that:

it is not an affiliate of us or, if an affiliate, that it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable;

it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, and has no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution of the exchange notes issued to be issued in the exchange offer;

it is acquiring the exchange notes in the ordinary course of its business

if it is a broker-dealer that hold outstanding notes that were acquired for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities (other than outstanding securities acquired directly from us or any of our affiliates), it will deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resales of the exchange notes received by it in the exchange offer;

if it is a broker-dealer, that it did not purchase the outstanding notes to be exchanged in the exchange offer from us or any of our affiliates; and

it is not acting on behalf of any person who could not truthfully and completely make the foregoing representations.

135

Each holder who cannot make such representations:

will not be able to rely on the interpretations of the staff of the SEC in the above-mentioned interpretive letters;

will not be permitted or entitled to tender outstanding notes in the exchange offer; and

must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any sale or other transfer of outstanding notes, unless the sale is made under an exemption from such requirements.

In addition, each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for outstanding notes, where such outstanding notes were acquired by that broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver this prospectus in connection with any resale of such notes issued in the exchange offer. See “Plan of Distribution” for a discussion of the exchange and resale obligations of broker-dealers in connection with the exchange offer.

In addition, to comply with state securities laws of certain jurisdictions, the exchange notes may not be offered or sold in any state unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and complied with by the holders selling the exchange notes. We have not agreed to register or qualify the exchange notes for offer or sale under state securities laws.

136

DESCRIPTION OF EXCHANGE NOTES

The outstanding notes were issued, and the exchange notes will be issued, under an indenture (the“indenture”), dated December 21, 2009, among the Issuer, the Guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the“trustee”). On December 21, 2009, the Issuer issued and sold $1.0 billion of 9.50% senior secured notes due 2016 (“original first lien notes”). On February 11, 2010, the Issuer issued and sold $50 million of 9.50% senior secured notes due 2016 (“additional first lien notes”). The original first lien notes and the additional first lien notes:

•  arepari passuin right of payment;

•  are secured equally and ratably;

•  vote together on any matter submitted to the holders for a vote, including waivers and amendments; and

•  are otherwise treated as a single class for all purposes under the indenture, including redemptions and offers to purchase.

Unless otherwise indicated, the exchange notes offered hereby, the original first lien notes and the additional first lien notes are collectively referred to herein as the “notes”. The terms of the notes include those stated in the indenture and those made part of the indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, which is referred to in this prospectus as the Trust Indenture Act, or TIA.

You can find the definitions of certain terms used in this description under “— Certain Definitions”. Certain defined terms used in this description but not defined below under the caption “— Certain Definitions” have the meanings assigned to them in the indenture, the collateral trust agreement, the intercreditor agreementand/or the exchange and registration rights agreements. In this description, the term“Parent” refers only to McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and not to any of its subsidiaries or direct or indirect equityholders, the term“Issuer” refers only to McJunkin Red Man Corporation, a West Virginia corporation and a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of Parent, and not to any of its subsidiaries, the term“refinancing transactions” means the issuance of the original first lien notes and the application of the use of proceeds therefrom, and the term“current transactions” means the issuance of the additional first lien notes and the application of the use of proceeds therefrom.

The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the indenture, the collateral trust agreement, the intercreditor agreement and the registration rights agreement. It does not restate those agreements in their entirety. We urge you to read the indenture, the collateral trust agreement, the intercreditor agreement and the exchange and registration rights agreements because they, and not this description, define your rights as a holder of the notes. Copies of the indenture, the collateral trust agreement, the intercreditor agreement and the exchange and registration rights agreements from the Issuer without charge upon request.

The registered holder of a note will be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. Only registered holders will have rights under the indenture.

Brief Description of the Notes and the Note Guarantees

The Notes

The notes:

•  are general senior secured obligations of the Issuer;

•  share, equally and ratably with all obligations of the Issuer under any other Priority Lien Debt, in the benefits of Liens held by the collateral trustee on all Notes Priority Collateral from time to time owned by the Issuer, which Liens will be junior to all Permitted Prior Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral and senior to the Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral securing any future Subordinated Lien Obligations;

•  share, equally and ratably with all obligations of the Issuer under any other Priority Lien Debt, in the benefits of the Liens held by the collateral trustee on the ABL Priority Collateral, which Liens will be junior to all Permitted Prior Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral, including Liens securing the ABL Debt Obligations,

137

and, consequently, the notes will be effectively junior to all ABL Debt Obligations to the extent of the value of the ABL Priority Collateral;

•  are structurally subordinated to any existing and future Indebtedness and other liabilities of the Issuer’s non-Guarantor Subsidiaries;

•  arepari passuin right of payment with all existing and future Indebtedness of the Issuer that is not subordinated;

•  are senior in right of payment to any existing and future subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer; and

•  are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Subsidiary Guarantors, and on a senior unsecured basis by Parent, as described under the caption “— The Note Guarantees”.

As of December 31, 2010, the Issuer would had outstanding $1.05 billion in aggregate principal amount of Priority Lien Debt (consisting solely of the notes) plus certain outstanding interest rate swap agreements that have been designated as Priority Lien Debt, approximately $286 million in aggregate principal amount of drawn ABL Debt and outstanding letters of credit of approximately $5 million (and $360 million of available borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility) and no Subordinated Lien Debt. Pursuant to the indenture, the Issuer is permitted to incur additional Indebtedness as Priority Lien Debt in an amount not to exceed the Priority Lien Cap. The Issuer is also permitted to incur additional ABL Debt in an amount not to exceed the ABL Lien Cap and additional Subordinated Lien Debt in an amount not to exceed the Subordinated Lien Cap. Any future incurrence of Priority Lien Debt, ABL Debt or Subordinated Lien Debt will be subject to all of the covenants described below, including the covenants described under the captions “— Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock” and “— Certain Covenants — Liens”.

The Note Guarantees

The notes are guaranteed by Parent and by all of the current and future Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiaries of the Issuer (other than Excluded Subsidiaries) and any of the Issuer’s future Restricted Subsidiaries that guarantee any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, including the ABL Credit Facility.

Each guarantee by a Subsidiary Guarantor of the notes:

•  is a general senior secured obligation of that Subsidiary Guarantor;

•  shares, equally and ratably with all obligations of that Subsidiary Guarantor under any other Priority Lien Debt, in the benefit of Liens on all Notes Priority Collateral from time to time owned by that Subsidiary Guarantor, which Liens will be junior to all Permitted Prior Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral and senior to the Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral securing any future Subordinated Lien Obligations;

•  shares, equally and ratably with all obligations of that Subsidiary Guarantor under any other Priority Lien Debt, in the benefits of the Liens held by the collateral trustee on the ABL Priority Collateral of that Subsidiary Guarantor, which Liens will be junior to all Permitted Prior Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral, including Liens securing the ABL Debt Obligations, and, consequently, the Note Guarantees will be effectively junior to all ABL Debt Obligations to the extent of the value of the ABL Priority Collateral of that Subsidiary Guarantor;

•  ispari passuin right of payment with all existing and future Indebtedness of that Subsidiary Guarantor that is not subordinated; and

•  is senior in right of payment to any future subordinated Indebtedness of that Subsidiary Guarantor.

Not all of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries guarantee the notes. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of these non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, the non-Guarantor Subsidiaries will pay the holders of their debt and their trade creditors before they will be able to distribute any of their assets to the Issuer. As of December 31, 2010, the Issuer’s non-Guarantor Subsidiaries had consolidated total liabilities (excluding intercompany liabilities of Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors) of approximately $453 million, including trade payables, and consolidated total assets of $505 million, which represented 16% of the Issuer’s and its Subsidiaries’

138

consolidated total assets. In addition, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Issuer’s non-Guarantor subsidiaries had consolidated total revenue of $727 million, which represented 19% of the Issuer’s consolidated total revenue. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Notes — Your Right to Receive Payment on the Exchange Notes Will Be Structurally Subordinated to the Liabilities of Our Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”.

The guarantee by Parent of the notes is a general senior unsecured obligation of Parent, ispari passuin right of payment with all existing and future Indebtedness of Parent that is not subordinated, is senior in right of payment to any future subordinated Indebtedness of Parent and is effectively subordinated to any future secured Indebtedness of Parent and structurally subordinated to any Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries. Parent has no significant assets other than its interest in the Issuer, and has no income from operations independent of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries.

If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), such Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary must become a Subsidiary Guarantor, execute a supplemental indenture and deliver an Opinion of Counsel to the trustee. In addition, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that guarantees any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, including the ABL Credit Facility, must become a Subsidiary Guarantor, execute a supplemental indenture and deliver an Opinion of Counsel to the trustee.

The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released under specified circumstances, including, in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, in connection with a disposition of the Subsidiary Guarantor’s Capital Stock if various conditions are satisfied. See “— Certain Covenants — Guarantees”.

As of the date the Issuer issued the notes, all of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries were “Restricted Subsidiaries”. However, under the circumstances described below under the caption

‘‘— Certain Covenants — Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries”, the Issuer is permitted to designate certain of its Subsidiaries as “Unrestricted Subsidiaries”. Any Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to any of the covenants in the indenture and will not guarantee the notes. The notes are not guaranteed by PVF Holdings LLC, which is the direct parent of Parent and the indirect parent of the Issuer.

Principal, Maturity and Interest

The indenture provides for the issuance by the Issuer of notes with an unlimited principal amount. The Issuer may issue additional notes (the“additional notes”) from time to time after this offering. Any offering of additional notes is subject to the covenants described below under the captions “— Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock” and “— Certain Covenants — Liens”. The original first lien notes, the additional first lien notes, the exchange notes and any additional notes subsequently issued under the indenture would be treated as a single class for all purposes under the indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. We intend to take the position that the additional first lien notes will be fungible with the original first lien notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See “Certain Material United States Federal Tax Considerations — Qualified Reopening”. However, any additional notes may not be fungible with the additional first lien notes and the original first lien notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any additional notes, if any, will be issued in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. The notes will mature on December 15, 2016.

Interest on the notes accrues at the rate of 9.50% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15, having commenced on June 15, 2010. The Issuer will make each interest payment to the holders of record on the immediately preceding June 1 and December 1, respectively.

Interest on the additional first lien notes will be deemed to accrue from December 21, 2009. Interest will be computed on the basis of a360-day year comprised of twelve30-day months.

Methods of Receiving Payments on the Notes

If a holder has given wire transfer instructions to the Issuer, the Issuer will pay all principal, interest and premium on that holder’s notes in accordance with those instructions. All other payments on the notes will be made

139

at the office or agency of the paying agent and registrar within the City and State of New York unless the Issuer elects to make interest payments by check mailed to the holders at their addresses set forth in the register of holders.

Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes

The trustee currently acts as paying agent and registrar. The Issuer may change the paying agent or registrar without prior notice to the holders, and the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as paying agent or registrar.

Transfer and Exchange

A holder may transfer or exchange notes in accordance with the indenture and the procedures described in “Notice to Investors”. The registrar and the trustee may require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the indenture. The Issuer is not required to transfer or exchange any note selected for redemption. Also, the Issuer is not required to transfer or exchange any note (1) for a period of 15 days before a selection of notes to be redeemed or (2) tendered and not withdrawn in connection with a Change of Control Offer or an Asset Sale Offer.

Security

The obligations of the Issuer with respect to the notes, the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Note Guarantees, all other existing and future Priority Lien Obligations and the performance of all other obligations of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors under the note documents are secured by Liens held by the collateral trustee on the Notes Priority Collateral and the ABL Priority Collateral. The Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral securing the notes are senior to the Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral securing any future Subordinated Lien Obligations. The Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the notes are junior to the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the ABL Debt Obligations, but senior to the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing any future Subordinated Lien Obligations. All such Liens are subject to Permitted Prior Liens.

On December 21, 2009, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into a collateral trust agreement with the collateral trustee and the trustee. The collateral trust agreement sets forth the terms on which the collateral trustee will receive, hold, administer, maintain, enforce and distribute the proceeds of all Liens upon all Collateral owned by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor for the benefit of all present and future holders of Priority Lien Obligations and all future holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations (if any). The Priority Lien Obligations and the Subordinated Lien Obligations are collectively referred to as the“Secured Obligations”.

Collateral Trustee

The collateral trustee acts for the benefit of the holders of:

•  the notes;

•  all other Priority Lien Obligations outstanding from time to time; and

•  all Subordinated Lien Obligations outstanding from time to time, if any.

U.S. Bank National Association currently acts as collateral trustee under the collateral trust agreement. Neither the Issuer nor any of its Affiliates may act as collateral trustee. No Secured Debt Representative may serve as collateral trustee; provided that the trustee may serve as collateral trustee if the notes are the only Secured Obligations outstanding (other than Hedging Obligations).

The collateral trustee holds (directly or through co-trustees or agents), and is entitled to enforce on behalf of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and Subordinated Lien Obligations, if any, all Liens on the Collateral created by the security documents for their benefit, subject to the provisions of the intercreditor agreement and the collateral trust agreement, in each case as described below.

140

Except as provided in the collateral trust agreement or as directed by an Act of Required Debtholders in accordance with the collateral trust agreement, the collateral trustee is not obligated:

(1) to act upon directions purported to be delivered to it by any Person;

(2) to foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any Lien; or

(3) to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any or all of the security documents, the Liens created thereby or the Collateral.

The Issuer will deliver to each Secured Debt Representative copies of all security documents delivered to the collateral trustee.

On December 21, 2009, the collateral trustee entered into an intercreditor agreement (the“intercreditor agreement”) with the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the trustee, and The CIT Group/ Business Credit Inc. and Bank of America, N.A., each as co-collateral agent under the ABL Credit Facility (collectively in such capacity, and together with any other collateral agent, collateral trustee or other representative of lenders or holders of ABL Debt Obligations that becomes party to the intercreditor agreement upon the refinancing or replacement of the ABL Credit Facility, or any successor representative acting in such capacity, the“ABL Collateral Agent”), to provide for, among other things, the junior nature of the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the Priority Lien Obligations. The Liens held by the collateral trustee on the Notes Priority Collateral securing Priority Lien Obligations are senior to the Liens securing any future Subordinated Lien Obligations. The Liens held by the collateral trustee on the ABL Priority Collateral securing Priority Lien Obligations are junior to the Liens held by the ABL Collateral Agent on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the ABL Debt Obligations, but senior to the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing any future Subordinated Lien Obligations. All such Liens are subject to Permitted Prior Liens.

Collateral

The Notes Priority Collateral comprises substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors, other than the ABL Priority Collateral and Excluded Assets.

The ABL Priority Collateral comprises substantially all accounts, inventory or documents of title, customs receipts, insurance certificates, shipping documents and other written materials related to the purchase or import of any inventory, all letter of credit rights, chattel paper, instruments, investment property and general intangibles pertaining to the foregoing, deposit accounts (other than the Net Available Cash Account, to the extent that it constitutes a deposit account) and securities accounts (other than the Net Available Cash Account, to the extent it constitutes a securities account), including all cash, marketable securities, securities entitlements, financial assets and other funds held in or on deposit in any of the foregoing, all records, “supporting obligations” (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC) and related letters of credit, commercial tort claims or other claims and causes of action, in each case, to the extent not primarily related to the Notes Priority Collateral and, to the extent not otherwise included, all substitutions, replacements, accessions, products and proceeds (including, without limitation, insurance proceeds, investment property, licenses, royalties, income, payments, claims, damages and proceeds of suit) of any or all of the foregoing, in each case held by the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors, other than the Excluded ABL Assets.

ABL Debt

As of December 31, 2010, the Issuer had approximately $286 million in aggregate principal amount of drawn ABL Debt outstanding, all of which consisted of borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility, and outstanding letters of credit of approximately $5 million. As of December 31, 2010, the Issuer had approximately $360 million available for borrowing under the ABL Credit Facility. The indenture and the security documents provide that the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors may incur additional ABL Debt, in an amount not to exceed the ABL Lien Cap. Any additional ABL Debt would be secured by Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral that would be effectively senior to the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the notes and other Priority Lien Debt. Additional ABL Debt will only be permitted if such Indebtedness and the related Liens are permitted to be incurred under the

141

covenants described below under the captions “— Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock” and “— Certain Covenants — Liens”.

Additional Priority Lien Debt

The indenture and the security documents provide that the Issuer may incur additional Priority Lien Debt, in an amount not to exceed the Priority Lien Cap, by issuing additional notes under the indenture or under one or more additional indentures, incurring additional Indebtedness under Credit Facilities (other than the ABL Credit Facility) or otherwise issuing or increasing a new Series of Secured Debt secured by Priority Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral and junior Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral. All additional Priority Lien Debt will bepari passuin right of payment with the notes, will be guaranteed on apari passubasis by each Subsidiary Guarantor and will be secured equally and ratably with the notes by Liens on the Collateral held by the collateral trustee for as long as the notes and the Note Guarantees are secured by the Collateral, subject to the covenants contained in the indenture. The collateral trustee under the collateral trust agreement holds all Priority Liens in trust for the benefit of the holders of the notes, any future Priority Lien Debt and all other Priority Lien Obligations. Additional Priority Lien Debt will only be permitted to be secured by the Collateral if such Indebtedness and the related Liens are permitted to be incurred under the covenants described below under the captions “— Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock” and “— Certain Covenants — Liens”.

Future Subordinated Lien Debt

The indenture and the security documents provide that the Issuer and the Guarantors may incur Subordinated Lien Debt in the future, in an amount not to exceed the Subordinated Lien Cap, by issuing notes under one or more new indentures, incurring additional Indebtedness under other Credit Facilities (other than the ABL Credit Facility) or otherwise issuing or increasing a new Series of Secured Debt secured by Subordinated Liens on the Collateral. Subordinated Lien Debt will be permitted to be secured by the Collateral only if such Subordinated Lien Debt and the related Subordinated Liens are permitted to be incurred under the covenants described below under the captions “— Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock” and “— Certain Covenants — Liens”. The collateral trustee under the collateral trust agreement holds all Subordinated Liens in trust for the benefit of the holders of any future Subordinated Lien Debt and all other Subordinated Lien Obligations. The Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral securing any future Subordinated Lien Obligations will be junior to the Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral held by the collateral trustee securing the Priority Lien Obligations and the Liens on the Notes Priority Collateral held by the ABL Collateral Agent securing the ABL Debt Obligations. The Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing any future Subordinated Lien Obligations will be junior to the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the ABL Debt Obligations and the Liens securing the Priority Lien Obligations. All such Liens will be subject to Permitted Prior Liens.

The Intercreditor Agreement

On December 21, 2009, the collateral trustee, on behalf of all current and future holders of Priority Lien Obligations and all future holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, entered into the intercreditor agreement with the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the ABL Collateral Agent to provide for, among other things, the junior nature of the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral securing the Priority Lien Obligations. The intercreditor agreement includes certain intercreditor arrangements relating to the rights of the collateral trustee in the ABL Priority Collateral.

The intercreditor agreement permits the ABL Debt Obligations, the Priority Lien Obligations and the Subordinated Lien Obligations to be refunded, refinanced or replaced by certain permitted replacement facilities without affecting the lien priorities set forth in the intercreditor agreement, in each case without the consent of any holder of ABL Debt Obligations, Priority Lien Obligations (including holders of the notes) or Subordinated Lien Obligations.

(3) file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim or other pleading objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations, if any, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the intercreditor agreement;

The Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself and each holder of Priority Lien Obligations and each holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations, has agreed that it will not take or receive any ABL Priority Collateral or any proceeds of such ABL Priority Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off) with respect to any such ABL Priority Collateral in its capacity as a creditor in violation of the intercreditor agreement. Unless and until the Discharge of ABL Debt Obligations, except as expressly provided in the provisions

145

set forth in the first and third paragraph under the caption “— Enforcement”, and the provisions under the caption “— Agreements With Respect to Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings” as they relate to adequate protection, the sole right of the Collateral Trustee, the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral will be to hold a Lien (if any) on such Collateral pursuant to the respective Priority Lien Documents or Subordinated Lien Documents, as applicable, for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of ABL Debt Obligations.

Subject to the provisions set forth in the first and third paragraph under the caption “— Enforcement”, and the provisions under the caption “— Agreements With Respect to Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings” as they relate to adequate protection,

(1) the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself, the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, has agreed that such Persons will not take any action that would hinder any exercise of remedies under the ABL Credit Documents or that is otherwise prohibited under the intercreditor agreement, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the ABL Priority Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise;

(2) the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself, the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, has agreed to waive any and all rights such Persons may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the ABL Collateral Agent or the holders of ABL Debt Obligations seek to enforce or collect the ABL Debt Obligations or the Liens securing the ABL Debt Obligations granted in any of the ABL Debt Documents or undertaken in accordance with the intercreditor agreement, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the ABL Collateral Agent or the holders of ABL Debt Obligations is adverse to the interest of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations; and

(3) the Collateral Trustee has acknowledged that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any Priority Lien Document or Subordinated Lien Document (in each case, other than the intercreditor agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the ABL Collateral Agent or the holders of ABL Debt Obligations with respect to the enforcement of the Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral as set forth in the intercreditor agreement and the ABL Debt Documents.

Except as otherwise set forth under the first paragraph under the caption “— Enforcement”, the fourth paragraph under the caption “— Enforcement”, and the provisions related to set-off and priorities of proceeds of Collateral as set forth in the intercreditor agreement, the Collateral Trustee and the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Issuer or any Guarantor that has guaranteed or granted Liens to secure the Priority Lien Obligations or the Subordinated Lien Obligations, as applicable, and the Collateral Trustee may exercise rights and remedies with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Priority Lien Documents and Subordinated Lien Documents, as applicable, and applicable law;provided, however, that in the event that the Collateral Trustee or any holder of Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of ABL Priority Collateral as a result of its enforcement of such rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations, as applicable, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of the intercreditor agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the ABL Debt Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Priority Lien Obligations and Subordinated Lien Obligations are subject to the intercreditor agreement.

Collateral Access Rights

The intercreditor agreement provides that the ABL Collateral Agent and the Collateral Trustee will not commence Enforcement until the earlier of the date on which (a) an Enforcement Notice has been given to the Collateral Trustee or the ABL Collateral Agent, as the case may be, or (b) any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is commenced by or against the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor that has not been dismissed. Subject to the provisions under the caption “— Enforcement”, the Collateral Trustee may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, join in any judicial proceedings commenced by the ABL Collateral Agent to enforce Liens on the Collateral,

146

providedthat neither the Collateral Trustee, nor any holder of Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations shall interfere with the Enforcement actions of the ABL Collateral Agent with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral.

If the Collateral Trustee, or any of its agents or representatives, or any third party pursuant to any Enforcement undertaken by the Collateral Trustee or any receiver, shall obtain possession or physical control of any real estate assets that are part of the Collateral, the Collateral Trustee shall notify the ABL Collateral Agent of such possession or physical control. The ABL Collateral Agent will be permitted, upon notice to the Collateral Trustee within at least 10 business days thereafter, to exercise access rights under the intercreditor agreement, at which time the parties shall confer in good faith to coordinate with respect to the ABL Collateral Agent’s exercise of such access rights. After delivery of such notice to the Collateral Trustee, the ABL Collateral Agent will have a nonexclusive rent free access right to use such property for a period of approximately 180 days, subject to certain adjustments (the“Access Period”) for the purposes specified in the intercreditor agreement. The intercreditor agreement provides that if the Collateral Trustee shall foreclose or otherwise sell any of the Notes Priority Collateral, the Collateral Trustee will notify the buyer thereof that the buyer is acquiring such Notes Priority Collateral subject to the terms of the intercreditor agreement.

The intercreditor agreement also addresses the relative rights of the ABL Collateral Agent and the Collateral Trustee to use the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantor’s intellectual property rights and equipment and agreements with landlords in connection with enforcement or exercise of remedies with respect to the Collateral.

Application of Proceeds

The intercreditor agreement provides that, subject to the provisions related to reorganization securities under the caption “— Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings”, so long as the Discharge of ABL Debt Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Issuer or any Guarantor, all ABL Priority Collateral or proceeds thereof received in connection with the sale or other disposition of, or collection on, such Collateral upon the exercise of remedies by the ABL Collateral Agent or the holders of ABL Debt Obligations, shall be applied by the ABL Collateral Agent to the ABL Debt Obligations in such order as specified in the relevant ABL Debt Documents. Upon the Discharge of ABL Debt Obligations, the ABL Collateral Agent will deliver to the Collateral Trustee any Collateral and proceeds of Collateral held by it or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct to be applied by the Collateral Trustee in such order as specified in the Priority Lien Documents and Subordinated Lien Documents.

Payments Over in Violation of Intercreditor Agreement

The intercreditor agreement provides that, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Issuer or any Guarantor, any Collateral or proceeds thereof received by any holder of ABL Debt Obligations, Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off) relating to the Collateral in contravention of the intercreditor agreement shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over to the ABL Collateral Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as appropriate, in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The Collateral Trustee and the ABL Collateral Agent will each be irrevocably authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for the other Person.

Releases

The intercreditor agreement provides that if, in connection with the exercise of the ABL Collateral Agent’s remedies in respect of any Collateral as provided for under the caption “— Enforcement”, the ABL Collateral Agent, for itselfand/or on behalf of any holder of ABL Debt Obligations, releases its Liens on any part of the ABL Priority Collateral, then the Liens, if any, of the Collateral Trustee, the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, on the Collateral sold or disposed of in connection with such exercise, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released.

The intercreditor agreement provides that if, in connection with any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral (collectively, a“Disposition”) permitted under the terms of the ABL Debt Documents,

Insurance

The intercreditor agreement provides that unless and until the Discharge of ABL Debt Obligations has occurred and subject to the terms of, and the rights of the Issuer and the Guarantors under, the ABL Debt Documents:

(1) the ABL Collateral Agent and the holders of ABL Debt Obligations shall have the sole and exclusive right to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the ABL Priority Collateral or the Liens with respect thereto in the event of any loss thereunder or with respect thereto and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting such Collateral; and

(2) all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) if in respect to such ABL Priority Collateral and to the extent required by the ABL Debt Documents shall be paid to the ABL Collateral Agent for the benefit of the holders of ABL Debt Obligations pursuant to the terms of the ABL Debt Documents (including, without limitation, for purposes of cash collateralization of letters of credit) and thereafter, to the extent no ABL Debt Obligations are outstanding, and subject to the terms of, and the rights of the Issuer and the Guarantors under, the Priority Lien Documents or Subordinated Lien Documents, as applicable, to the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, as applicable, to the extent required under the Priority Lien Documents or Subordinated Lien Documents, as applicable, and then, to the extent no Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations which were secured by such Collateral are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

The ABL Collateral Agent and Collateral Trustee have each received separate lender’s loss payable endorsements naming themselves as loss payee and additional insured, as their interests may appear, with respect to policies which insure the Collateral. To the extent any proceeds are received for business interruption or for any liability or indemnification and those proceeds are not compensation for a casualty loss with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral or Subordinated Lien Collateral, such proceeds shall (subject to the rights of the Issuer and the Guarantors) first be applied to repay the ABL Debt Obligations and then be applied, to the extent required by the Priority Lien Documents or the Subordinated Lien Documents, to the Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations, as applicable.

Bailees for Perfection

The intercreditor agreement provides that the ABL Collateral Agent will:

(1) agree to hold that part of the Collateral that is in its (or its agents’ or bailees’) possession or control to the extent that possession or control thereof is taken to perfect a Lien thereon under the UCC (such Collateral being the “Pledged Collateral”) as collateral agent for the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations and as bailee for the Collateral Trustee and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under the Priority Lien Documents and the Subordinated Lien Documents, subject to the terms and conditions under this caption “— Bailees for Perfection”;

148

(2) have no obligation whatsoever to any other Person to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by the Issuer or any of the Guarantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth under this caption “— Bailees for Perfection”;

(3) not have a fiduciary relationship with any other Person with respect to such acts; and

(4) upon the Discharge of ABL Debt Obligations, deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any necessary endorsements, first, to the Collateral Trustee to the extent the Priority Lien Obligations or the Subordinated Lien Obligations which are secured by such Pledged Collateral remain outstanding, and second, to the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor.

The duties or responsibilities of the ABL Collateral Agent described under this caption “— Bailees for Perfection” will be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee in accordance therewith and delivering the Pledged Collateral upon a Discharge of ABL Debt Obligations as provided in the paragraph above, so that, subject to the terms of the intercreditor agreement, until a Discharge of ABL Debt Obligations, the ABL Collateral Agent will be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral or ABL Priority Collateral within its “control” in accordance with the terms of the intercreditor agreement and other ABL Debt Documents as if the Liens (if any) of the Collateral Trustee did not exist.

Agreements With Respect to Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings

Until the Discharge of ABL Debt Obligations has occurred, if the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the ABL Collateral Agent shall, acting in accordance with the ABL Credit Facility, agree to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) other than the identifiable cash proceeds of any Priority Lien Collateral or Subordinated Lien Collateral, in each case, on which a Lien has been granted to the ABL Collateral Agent pursuant to the ABL Debt Documents, or to the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor to obtain financing, whether from the holders of ABL Debt Obligations or any other Person under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law (“DIP Financing”);providedthat, the aggregate principal amount of the DIP Financing plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of ABL Debt Obligations plus the aggregate face amount of any letters of credit issued and not reimbursed under the ABL Credit Facility does not exceed the ABL Lien Cap, then each holder of Priority Lien Obligations and each holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations will agree that it will raise no objection to or contest such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing so long as such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing meet the following requirements:

(1) it is on commercially reasonable terms; and

(2) the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the Cash Collateral use or the DIP Financing that are materially prejudicial to their perfected interests in the Notes Priority Collateral or Subordinated Lien Collateral, as applicable.

To the extent the Liens securing the ABL Debt Obligations are subordinated to orpari passu with such DIP Financing which meets the requirements of clauses (1) and (2) above, the Collateral Trustee will agree (a) to subordinate any Liens in the ABL Priority Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except, as expressly agreed by the ABL Collateral Agent or to the extent permitted by terms of the intercreditor agreement), and (b) to permit a sale of the ABL Priority Collateral free and clear of Liens or other claims, under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, then each holder of Priority Lien Obligations and each holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations will agree that it will not raise any objection to or contest such sale or request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (it being understood that the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations will still, but subject to the intercreditor agreement, have rights with respect to the proceeds of such Collateral).

Until the Discharge of ABL Debt Obligations has occurred, the Collateral Trustee, each holder of Priority Lien Obligations and each holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations, agrees not to seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of

149

the ABL Priority Collateral, without the prior written consent of the ABL Collateral Agent, and until both the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations and the Discharge of Subordinated Lien Obligations have occurred, the ABL Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the holders of ABL Debt Obligations, will not seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Notes Priority Collateral and Subordinated Lien Collateral (other than to the extent such relief is required to exercise its rights as set forth under the captions “— Collateral Access Rights” or with respect to the provisions of the intercreditor agreement regarding intellectual property rights, access to information or use of equipment, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Trustee).

The Collateral Trustee, each holder of Priority Lien Obligations and each holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations, agrees not to contest (or support any other Person contesting): (a) any request by the ABL Collateral Agent for adequate protection with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral or (b) any objection by the ABL Collateral Agent to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the ABL Collateral Agent or the holders of ABL Debt Obligations claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, (i) if the holders of ABL Debt Obligations (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of additional collateral (even if such collateral is not of a type which would otherwise have constituted ABL Priority Collateral) in connection with any Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing, then the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself, any of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or any of the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, may seek or request adequate protection with respect to its interests in such Collateral in the form of a Lien on the same additional collateral, which Lien will be subordinated (except to the extent that the Collateral Trustee already had a Lien on such Collateral (in which case the priorities set forth in the intercreditor agreement shall apply)) to the Liens securing the ABL Debt Obligations and such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens of the Collateral Trustee on the ABL Priority Collateral and (ii) in the event the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself, any of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or any of the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, seeks or requests adequate protection of their respective interest in the ABL Priority Collateral and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional collateral, then the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself, any of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or any of the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, will agree that it will not oppose any request by the ABL Collateral Agent for adequate protection in the form of a Lien on such additional collateral as security for the ABL Debt Obligations and for any Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing provided by the holders of the ABL Debt Obligations and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Priority Lien Obligationsand/or Subordinated Lien Obligations shall be subordinated to the Lien on such collateral securing the ABL Debt Obligations and any such DIP Financing provided by the holders of ABL Debt Obligations (and all obligations relating thereto) and to any other Liens granted to the holders of ABL Debt Obligations as adequate protection on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Priority Lien Obligations and the Subordinated Lien Obligations are so subordinated to such ABL Debt Obligations under the intercreditor agreement.

The intercreditor agreement provides that:

(1) except as otherwise expressly set forth in the first paragraph under the caption “— Agreements With Respect to Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings” or in connection with the exercise of remedies with respect to the ABL Priority Collateral, nothing in the intercreditor agreement will limit the rights of any holder of Priority Lien Obligations or any holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations from seeking adequate protection with respect to their rights in the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (including adequate protection in the form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments or otherwise);

(2) if any holder of ABL Debt Obligations, any holder of Priority Lien Obligations or any holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Issuer or any Guarantor any amount paid in respect of ABL Debt Obligations, Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations, as the case may be (a “Recovery”), then such Person shall be entitled to a reinstatement of ABL Debt Obligations, Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations, as the case may be, with respect to all such recovered amounts and, if the intercreditor agreement is terminated prior to such Recovery, the intercreditor agreement will be reinstated in

150

full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties to the intercreditor agreement from such date of reinstatement;

(3) if, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding,

(a) the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations receive pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan a distribution of debt obligations (“Junior Lien Reorganization Securities”) in whole or in part on account of their junior Liens on the ABL Priority Collateral (such Collateral, the “Applicable Junior Collateral”) that are secured by Liens on such Applicable Junior Collateral, and

(b) the holders of ABL Debt Obligations receive pursuant to such plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan a distribution of debt obligations (“Senior Lien Reorganization Securities”) in whole or in part on account of their ABL Debt Obligations that are secured by Liens on such Applicable Junior Collateral, then the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, as applicable, shall be entitled to retain their Junior Lien Reorganization Securities and shall not be obligated to turnover the same to any or all of the holders of ABL Debt Obligations, and, to the extent the Junior Lien Reorganization Securities and the Senior Lien Reorganization Securities are secured by Liens upon the same Applicable Junior Collateral, the provisions of the intercreditor agreement will survive the distribution of such Junior Lien Reorganization Securities and Senior Lien Reorganization Securities and will apply with like effect to the Junior Lien Reorganization Securities and Senior Lien Reorganization Securities, to such Liens securing such Junior Lien Reorganization Securities and Senior Lien Reorganization Securities and to the distribution of proceeds of such Applicable Junior Collateral;

(4) the holders of ABL Debt Obligations, the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations acknowledge and agree that (i) the grants of Liens pursuant to the ABL Debt Documents, the Priority Lien Documents and the Subordinated Lien Documents constitute three separate and distinct grants of Liens and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Priority Lien Obligations, the Subordinated Lien Obligations and the ABL Debt Obligations are fundamentally different from each other and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the holders of ABL Debt Obligations, the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations in respect of the Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the holders of ABL Debt Obligations shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, fees, costs and other charges, irrespective of whether a claim for such amounts is allowed or allowable in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, before any distribution from, or in respect of, any Collateral is made in respect of the claims held by the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, with the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations agreeing to turn over to the holders of ABL Debt Obligations amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations;

(5) neither the Collateral Trustee nor any holder of Priority Lien Obligations or any holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations will oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the ABL Collateral Agent or any holder of ABL Debt Obligations for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of ABL Debt Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien securing any holder of ABL Debt Obligation’s claim, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations and the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations on the Collateral; and

(6) neither the ABL Collateral Agent nor any holder of ABL Debt Obligations shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Collateral Trustee, any holder of Priority Lien Obligations or any holder of

151

Subordinated Lien Obligations for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations, as applicable, consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Lien securing any holder of Priority Lien Obligation’s or holder of Subordinated Lien Obligation’s, as applicable, claim, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the ABL Collateral Agent on behalf of the holders of ABL Debt Obligations on the Collateral.

Notice Requirements and Procedural Provisions

The intercreditor agreement also provides for various advance notice requirements and other procedural provisions typical for agreements of this type, including procedural provisions to allow any successor ABL Collateral Agent to become a party to the intercreditor agreement (without the consent of any holder of ABL Debt Obligations, Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations) upon the refinancing or replacement of the ABL Debt Obligations, Priority Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Obligations as permitted by the applicable ABL Debt Documents, Priority Lien Documents and Subordinated Lien Documents.

The Collateral Trust Agreement

On December 21, 2009, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into a collateral trust agreement with the collateral trustee and the trustee. The collateral trust agreement sets forth the terms on which the collateral trustee will receive, hold, administer, maintain, enforce and distribute the proceeds of all Liens on all Collateral owned by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor for the benefit of all present and future holders of Priority Lien Obligations and all future holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations (if any).

Enforcement of Liens

If the collateral trustee at any time receives written notice stating that any event has occurred that constitutes a default under any Secured Debt Document entitling the collateral trustee to foreclose upon, collect or otherwise enforce its Liens thereunder, it will promptly deliver written notice thereof to each Secured Debt Representative. Thereafter, the collateral trustee may await direction by an Act of Required Debtholders and will act, or decline to act, as directed by an Act of Required Debtholders, in the exercise and enforcement of the collateral trustee’s interests, rights, powers and remedies in respect of the Collateral or under the security documents or applicable law and, following the initiation of such exercise of remedies, the collateral trustee will act, or decline to act, with respect to the manner of such exercise of remedies as directed by an Act of Required Debtholders, subject to the limitations set forth in the intercreditor agreement with respect to the rights of the collateral trustee in the ABL Priority Collateral. Unless it has been directed to the contrary by an Act of Required Debtholders, the collateral trustee in any event may (but will not be obligated to) take or refrain from taking such action with respect to any default under any Secured Debt Document as it may deem advisable and in the best interest of the holders of Secured Obligations, subject in all cases to the limitations in the intercreditor agreement.

Until the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations, the holders of the notes and the holders of other future Priority Lien Obligations will have, subject to the intercreditor agreement and the exceptions set forth below in clauses (1) through (4) and the provisions described below under the caption “— Provisions of the Indenture Relating to Security — Relative Rights”, and subject to the rights of the holders of Permitted Prior Liens, the exclusive right to authorize and direct the collateral trustee with respect to the Collateral (including, without limitation, the exclusive right to authorize or direct the collateral trustee to enforce, collect or realize on any Collateral or exercise any other right or remedy with respect to the Collateral) and the provisions of the security documents relating thereto, and no Subordinated Lien Representative or holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations may authorize or direct the collateral trustee with respect to such matters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations may, subject to the rights of the holders of Permitted Prior Liens and subject to the limitations set forth in the intercreditor agreement, direct the collateral trustee with respect to Collateral:

(1) without any condition or restriction whatsoever, at any time after the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations;

(2) as necessary to redeem any Collateral in a creditor’s redemption permitted by law or to deliver any notice or demand necessary to enforce (subject to the prior Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations) any right to

152

claim, take or receive proceeds of Collateral remaining after the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations in the event of foreclosure or other enforcement of any Permitted Prior Lien;

(3) as necessary to perfect or establish the priority (subject to the priority of the Liens securing Priority Lien Obligations, Liens securing ABL Debt Obligations and Permitted Prior Liens) of the Subordinated Liens upon any Collateral;providedthat, unless otherwise agreed to by the collateral trustee in the security documents, the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations may not require the collateral trustee to take any action to perfect any Subordinated Liens on any Collateral through possession or control; or

(4) as necessary to create, prove, preserve or protect (but not enforce) the Subordinated Liens upon any Collateral.

��

Subject to the intercreditor agreement and the provisions described below under the caption “— Provisions of the Indenture Relating to Security — Relative Rights”, both before and during an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, until the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations, none of the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, the collateral trustee (unless acting pursuant to an Act of Required Debtholders) or any Subordinated Lien Representative will be permitted to:

(1) request judicial relief, in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or in any other court, that would hinder, delay, limit or prohibit the lawful exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy otherwise available to the holders of Priority Lien Obligations in respect of the Priority Liens or that would limit, invalidate, avoid or set aside any Priority Lien or subordinate the Priority Liens to the Subordinated Liens or grant the Subordinated Liens equal ranking to the Priority Liens;

(2) oppose or otherwise contest any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement of Priority Liens made by any holder of Priority Lien Obligations or any Priority Lien Representative in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding;

(3) oppose or otherwise contest any lawful exercise by any holder of Priority Lien Obligations or any Priority Lien Representative of the right to credit bid Priority Lien Debt at any sale of Collateral in foreclosure of Priority Liens;

(4) oppose or otherwise contest any other request for judicial relief made in any court by any holder of Priority Lien Obligations or any Priority Lien Representative relating to the lawful enforcement of any Priority Lien; or

(5) challenge the validity, enforceability, perfection or priority of the Priority Liens.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the terms of the intercreditor agreement, both before and during an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Representatives may take any actions and exercise any and all rights that would be available to a holder of unsecured claims, including, without limitation, the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding against the Issuer or any Guarantor in accordance with applicable law;providedthe applicable Secured Debt Documents will provide that no holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Representative will be permitted to take any action prohibited by the intercreditor agreement or any of the actions prohibited by the provisions described in clauses (1) through (5) of the immediately preceding paragraph or oppose or contest any order that it has agreed not to oppose or contest under the provisions described below under the caption “— Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings”.

The collateral trust agreement provides that, at any time prior to the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations and after:

(1) the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Issuer or any Guarantor; or

153

(2) the collateral trustee and each Subordinated Lien Representative have received written notice from any Priority Lien Representative that:

(a) any Series of Priority Lien Debt has become due and payable in full (whether at maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise), or

(b) the holders of Priority Liens securing one or more Series of Priority Lien Debt have become entitled under any Priority Lien Document to and desire to enforce any or all of the Priority Liens by reason of a default under such Priority Lien Documents, no payment of money (or the equivalent of money) will be made from the proceeds of Collateral by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor to the collateral trustee (other than distributions to the collateral trustee for the benefit of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations), any Subordinated Lien Representative or any holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations (including, without limitation, payments and prepayments made for application to Subordinated Lien Obligations).

All proceeds of Collateral received by the collateral trustee, any Subordinated Lien Representative or any holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations in violation of the provisions described in the immediately preceding paragraph will be held by such Person for the account of, prior to the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations, the holders of Priority Liens and remitted to any Priority Lien Representative upon demand by such Priority Lien Representative. The Subordinated Liens will remain attached to and, subject to the provisions described under the caption “— Provisions of the Indenture Relating to Security — Ranking of Subordinated Liens”, enforceable against all proceeds so held or remitted. All proceeds of Collateral received by the collateral trustee, any Subordinated Lien Representative or any holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations not in violation of the immediately preceding paragraph will be received by such Person free from the Priority Liens and all other Liens except Subordinated Liens and Permitted Prior Liens, subject to the terms of the intercreditor agreement.

Waiver of Right of Marshalling

The collateral trust agreement provides that, prior to the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations, the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations, each Subordinated Lien Representative and the collateral trustee may not assert or enforce any right of marshalling accorded to a junior lienholder, as against the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or the Priority Lien Representatives (in their capacity as priority lienholders) with respect to the Collateral. Following the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations, the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations and any Subordinated Lien Representative may assert their right under the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise to any proceeds remaining following a sale or other disposition of Collateral by, or on behalf of, the holders of Priority Lien Obligations, subject to the terms of the intercreditor agreement.

Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings

The collateral trust agreement provides that, if in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and prior to the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations, the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or any Priority Lien Representative consent to any order:

(1) for use of cash collateral;

(2) approving adebtor-in-possession financing secured by a Lien that is senior to or on a parity with all Priority Liens upon any property of the estate in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding;

(3) granting any relief on account of Priority Lien Obligations as adequate protection (or its equivalent) for the benefit of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations in the Collateral; or

(4) relating to a sale of assets of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor that provides, to the extent the Collateral sold is to be free and clear of Liens, that all Priority Liens and Subordinated Liens will attach to the proceeds of the sale;

then, the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations and the Subordinated Lien Representatives, in their capacity as holders or representatives of secured claims, will not oppose or otherwise contest the entry of such order, so long as none of the holders of Priority Lien Obligations or any Priority Lien Representative opposes or otherwise contests

154

any request made by the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations or a Subordinated Lien Representative for the grant to the collateral trustee, for the benefit of the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations and the Subordinated Lien Representatives, of a junior Lien upon any property on which a Lien is (or is to be) granted under such order to secure the Priority Lien Obligations, co-extensive in all respects with, but subordinated to, such Lien and all Priority Liens on such property.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the terms of the intercreditor agreement, both before and during an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations and the Subordinated Lien Representatives may take any actions and exercise any and all rights that would be available to a holder of unsecured claims, including, without limitation, the commencement of Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings against the Issuer or any Guarantor in accordance with applicable law;providedthat the applicable Secured Debt Documents will provide that no holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations or Subordinated Lien Representative will be permitted to take any action prohibited by the intercreditor agreement or any of the actions prohibited by the provisions described in clauses (1) through (5) of the third paragraph under the caption “— Enforcement of Liens”, or oppose or contest any order that it has agreed not to oppose or contest under the provisions described in clauses (1) through (4) of the immediately preceding paragraph.

The holders of Subordinated Lien Obligations or any Subordinated Lien Representative will not file or prosecute in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding any motion for adequate protection (or any comparable request for relief) based upon their interest in the Collateral under the Subordinated Liens, except that, subject to the provisions of the intercreditor agreement:

(1) they may freely seek and obtain relief: (a) granting a junior Lien co-extensive in all respects with, but subordinated to, all Liens granted in the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to, or for the benefit of, the holders of Priority Lien Obligations; or (b) in connection with the confirmation of any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan; and

(2) they may freely seek and obtain any relief upon a motion for adequate protection (or any comparable relief), without any condition or restriction whatsoever, at any time after the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations.

Order of Application

The collateral trust agreement provides that if any Collateral is sold or otherwise realized upon by the collateral trustee in connection with any foreclosure, collection or other enforcement of Priority Liens granted to the collateral trustee in the security documents, the proceeds received by the collateral trustee from such foreclosure, collection or other enforcement will be distributed by the collateral trustee, subject to the provisions of the intercreditor agreement, in the following order of application:

FIRST, to the payment of all amounts payable under the collateral trust agreement on account of the collateral trustee’s fees and any reasonable legal fees, costs and expenses or other liabilities of any kind incurred by the collateral trustee or any co-trustee or agent of the collateral trustee in connection with any security document;

SECOND, to the repayment of Indebtedness and other obligations (other than Secured Debt Obligations) secured by a Permitted Prior Lien on the Collateral sold or realized upon, to the extent that such other Indebtedness or obligation is (or is required) to be discharged in connection with such sale or other realization;

THIRD, to the respective Priority Lien Representatives for application to the payment of all outstanding notes and other Priority Lien Debt and any other Priority Lien Obligations that are then due and payable in such order as may be provided in the Priority Lien Documents in an amount sufficient to pay in full in cash all outstanding notes and other Priority Lien Debt and all other Priority Lien Obligations that are then due and payable (including all interest accrued thereon after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding at the rate, including any applicable post-default rate, specified in the Priority Lien Documents, even if such interest is not enforceable, allowable or allowed as a claim in such proceeding, and including the discharge or cash collateralization (at the lower of (1) 105% of the aggregate undrawn amount and (2) the

155

percentage of the aggregate undrawn amount required for release of Liens under the terms of the applicable Priority Lien Document) of all outstanding letters of credit constituting Priority Lien Debt);

FOURTH, to the respective Subordinated Lien Representatives for application to the payment of all outstanding Subordinated Lien Debt and any other Subordinated Lien Obligations that are then due and payable in such order as may be provided in the Subordinated Lien Documents in an amount sufficient to pay in full in cash all outstanding Subordinated Lien Debt and all other Subordinated Lien Obligations that are then due and payable (including all interest accrued thereon after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding at the rate, including any applicable post-default rate, specified in the Subordinated Lien Documents, even if such interest is not enforceable, allowable or allowed as a claim in such proceeding, and including the discharge or cash collateralization (at the lower of (1) 105% of the aggregate undrawn amount and (2) the percentage of the aggregate undrawn amount required for release of Liens under the terms of the applicable Subordinated Lien Document) of all outstanding letters of credit, if any, constituting Subordinated Lien Debt); and

FIFTH, any surplus remaining after the payment in full in cash of the amounts described in the preceding clauses will be paid to the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor, as the case may be, or its successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

If any Subordinated Lien Representative or any holder of a Subordinated Lien Obligation collects or receives any proceeds with respect to Subordinated Lien Obligations of such foreclosure, collection or other enforcement that should have been applied to the payment of the Priority Lien Obligations in accordance with the provisions described in the immediately preceding paragraph, whether after the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise, such Subordinated Lien Representative or such holder of a Subordinated Lien Obligation, as the case may be, will forthwith deliver the same to the collateral trustee, for the account of the holders of the Priority Lien Obligations to be applied in accordance with the provisions described in the immediately preceding paragraph. Until so delivered, such proceeds will be held by that Subordinated Lien Representative or that holder of a Subordinated Lien Obligation, as the case may be, for the benefit of the holders of the Priority Lien Obligations. These provisions will not apply to payments received by any holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations if such payments are not proceeds of realization upon Collateral.

The provisions described above under the caption “— Order of Application” are intended for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each present and future holder of Secured Obligations, each present and future Secured Debt Representative and the collateral trustee, as holder of Priority Liens and Subordinated Liens, in each case, as a party to the collateral trust agreement or as a third party beneficiary thereof. The Secured Debt Representative of each future Series of Secured Debt will be required to deliver a Lien Sharing and Priority Confirmation to the collateral trustee and each other Secured Debt Representative at the time of incurrence of such Series of Secured Debt.

No appraisal of the fair market value of the Collateral has been made in connection with this offering of the exchange notes or was made at the time of the offering of the original first lien notes or the additional first lien notes, and the value of the Collateral will depend on market and economic conditions, the availability of buyers and other factors. As a result, liquidating the Collateral may not produce proceeds in an amount sufficient to pay any amounts due on the notes. There can be no assurance that the value of the Collateral or that the net proceeds received upon a sale of the Collateral would be sufficient to repay all, or would not be substantially less than, amounts due on the notes following a foreclosure upon the Collateral (and any payments in respect of Permitted Prior Liens) or a liquidation of the Issuer’s assets or the assets of the Subsidiary Guarantors. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Collateral and the Guarantees — The Value of the Collateral Securing the Exchange Notes May Not Be Sufficient to Satisfy Our Obligations Under the Exchange Notes.”

Release of Liens on Collateral

The collateral trust agreement provides that the collateral trustee’s Liens on the Collateral will be released:

(1) in whole, upon (a) payment in full and discharge of all outstanding Secured Debt and all other Secured Obligations that are outstanding, due and payable at the time all of the Secured Debt is paid in full and

156

discharged and (b) termination or expiration of all commitments to extend credit under all Secured Debt Documents and the cancellation or termination or cash collateralization (at the lower of (1) 105% of the aggregate undrawn amount and (2) the percentage of the aggregate undrawn amount required for release of Liens under the terms of the applicable Secured Debt Documents) of all outstanding letters of credit issued pursuant to any Secured Debt Documents;

(2) as to any Collateral that is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor (including indirectly, by way of a sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of a Subsidiary Guarantor) to a Person that is not (either before or after such sale, transfer or disposition) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer in a transaction or other circumstance that is not prohibited by either the “Asset Sale” provisions of the indenture or by the terms of any applicable Secured Debt Documents, at the time of such sale, transfer or other disposition or to the extent of the interest sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of;providedthat the collateral trustee’s Liens upon the Collateral will not be released if the sale or disposition is subject to the covenant described below under the caption “— Certain Covenants — Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets”;

(3) upon completion of any Asset Sale Offer conducted in compliance with the provision of the indenture described below under the caption “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Asset Sales”, to the extent any Net Proceeds constituted Excess Proceeds with respect to such Asset Sale Offer and remain unexpended following the consummation of such Asset Sale Offer;

(4) as to less than all or substantially all of the Collateral, if consent to the release of all Priority Liens (or, at any time after the Discharge of Priority Lien Obligations, consent to the release of all Subordinated Liens) on such Collateral has been given by an Act of Required Debtholders;

(5) as to all or substantially all of the Collateral, if (a) release of that Collateral is permitted under each Series of Secured Debt at the time outstanding as provided for in the applicable Secured Debt Documents, and (b) the Issuer has delivered an Officers’ Certificate to the collateral trustee certifying that all requirements for such release have been complied with;

(6) if and to the extent (a) required by all Series of Secured Debt at the time outstanding or (b) upon request of the Issuer, if such release is permitted for all Series of Secured Debt at the time outstanding without the consent of the holders thereof, in each case as provided for in the applicable Secured Debt Documents; or

(7) if and to the extent required by the provisions of the intercreditor agreement described above under the caption “— The Intercreditor Agreement — Releases”, and, in each such case, upon request of the Issuer, the collateral trustee will execute (with such acknowledgementsand/or notarizations as are required) and deliver evidence of such release to the Issuer;provided, however, to the extent the Issuer requests the collateral trustee to deliver evidence of the release of Collateral in accordance with this paragraph, the Issuer will deliver to the collateral trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such release of Collateral pursuant to the provisions described in this paragraph did not violate the terms of any applicable Secured Debt Document.

The security documents provide that the Liens securing the Secured Debt will extend to the proceeds of any sale of Collateral. As a result, the collateral trustee’s Liens will apply to the proceeds of any such Collateral received in connection with any sale or other disposition of assets described in the immediately preceding paragraph, subject to the provisions of the intercreditor agreement.

Release of Liens in Respect of Notes

The indenture and the collateral trust agreement provide that the collateral trustee’s Liens upon the Collateral will no longer secure the notes outstanding under the indenture or any other Obligations under the indenture, and the right of the holders of the notes and such Obligations to the benefits and proceeds of the collateral trustee’s Liens on the Collateral will terminate and be discharged:

(1) upon satisfaction and discharge of the indenture as described under the caption “— Satisfaction and Discharge”;

157

(2) upon a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance of the notes as described under the caption “— Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance”;

(3) upon payment in full and discharge of all notes outstanding under the indenture and all Obligations that are outstanding, due and payable under the indenture at the time the notes are paid in full and discharged;

(4) in whole or in part, with the consent of the holders of the requisite percentage of notes in accordance with the provisions described below under the caption “— Amendment, Supplement and Waiver”; or

(5) if and to the extent required by the provisions of the intercreditor agreement described above under the caption “— The Intercreditor Agreement — Releases”.

Amendment of Security Documents

The collateral trust agreement provides that:

(1) no amendment or supplement to the provisions of any security document will be effective without the approval of the collateral trustee acting as directed by an Act of Required Debtholders, except that any amendment or supplement that has the effect solely of (a) adding or maintaining Collateral, securing additional Secured Debt that was otherwise permitted by the terms of the Secured Debt Documents to be secured by the Collateral or preserving, perfecting or establishing the priority of the Liens thereon or the rights of the collateral trustee therein; (b) curing any ambiguity, defect, mistake, omission or inconsistency; (c) providing for the assumption of the Issuer’s or any Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under any security document in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as applicable; (d) making any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the secured parties or the collateral trustee or that does not adversely affect in any material respect the legal rights under the indenture or any other Secured Debt Document of any holder of notes, any other secured party or the collateral trustee; (e) conforming the text of any security document to any provision of this Description of Exchange Notes to the extent that such provision in this Description of Exchange Notes was intended to be a verbatim recitation of any security document; or (f) complying with any requirement of the Commission, will, in each case, become effective when executed and delivered by the Issuer and any applicable Subsidiary Guarantor party thereto and the collateral trustee;

(2) no amendment or supplement to the provisions of any security document that

(a) reduces, impairs or adversely affects the right of any holder of Secured Obligations:

(i) to vote its outstanding Secured Debt as to any matter described as subject to an Act of Required Debtholders or direction by the Required Priority Lien Debtholders,

(ii) to share in the order of application described above under “— Order of Application” in the proceeds of enforcement of or realization after default on any Collateral that has not been released in accordance with the provisions described above under “— Release of Liens on Collateral”, or

(iii) to require that Liens securing Secured Obligations be released only as set forth in the provisions described above under the caption “— Release of Liens on Collateral”, or

(b) amends the provisions described in this clause (2) or the definition of “Act of Required Debtholders”, “Required Priority Lien Debtholders” or “Required Subordinated Lien Debtholders”, will become effective without the consent of the requisite percentage or number of holders of each Series of Secured Debt so affected as specified under the applicable Secured Debt Documents; and

(3) no amendment or supplement to the provisions of any security document that imposes any obligation upon the collateral trustee or any Secured Debt Representative or adversely affects the rights of the collateral trustee or any Secured Debt Representative, in its individual capacity as such will become effective without the consent of the collateral trustee or such Secured Debt Representative, as applicable.

Any amendment or supplement to the provisions of the security documents that releases Collateral will be effective only if such release is granted in accordance with the applicable Secured Debt Document in compliance

158

with each then outstanding Series of Secured Debt, except as specified in the next sentence. Any amendment or supplement that results in the collateral trustee’s Liens upon all or substantially all of the Collateral no longer securing the notes and all related Obligations under the note documents may only be effected in accordance with the provisions described above under the caption “— Release of Liens in Respect of Notes”.

The collateral trust agreement provides that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the provisions described under the caption “— Amendment of Security Documents”, but subject to the provisions described in clauses (2) and (3) of the first paragraph under that caption, any amendment or waiver of, or any consent under, any provision of the collateral trust agreement or any other security document that secures Priority Lien Obligations will apply automatically to any comparable provision of any comparable Subordinated Lien Document without the consent of or notice to any Subordinated Lien Representative or holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations and without any action by the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, any holder of notes or other Priority Lien Obligations or any Subordinated Lien Representative or holder of Subordinated Lien Obligations.

Voting

In connection with any matter under the collateral trust agreement requiring a vote of holders of Secured Debt, each Series of Secured Debt will cast its votes in accordance with the Secured Debt Documents governing such Series of Secured Debt. The amount of Secured Debt to be voted by a Series of Secured Debt will equal (1) the aggregate principal amount of Secured Debt held by such Series of Secured Debt (including outstanding letters of credit whether or not then available or drawn),plus(2) other than in connection with an exercise of remedies, the aggregate unfunded commitments to extend credit which, when funded, would constitute Indebtedness of such Series of Secured Debt. Following and in accordance with the outcome of the applicable vote under its Secured Debt Documents, the Secured Debt Representative of each applicable Series of Secured Debt will vote the total amount of Secured Debt under that Series of Secured Debt as a block in respect of any vote under the collateral trust agreement. See “Act of Required Debtholders”.

Provisions of the Indenture Relating to Security

Equal and Ratable Sharing of Collateral by Holders of Priority Lien Debt

The indenture provides that, notwithstanding:

The provisions described in the immediately preceding paragraph are intended for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each present and future holder of Priority Lien Obligations, each present and future Priority Lien Representative and the collateral trustee, as holder of Priority Liens, in each case, as a party to the collateral trust agreement or as a third party beneficiary thereof. The Priority Lien Representative of each future Series of Priority Lien Debt will be required to deliver a Lien Sharing and Priority Confirmation to the collateral trustee and the trustee at the time of incurrence of such Series of Priority Lien Debt.

159

Ranking of Subordinated Liens

The indenture requires the Subordinated Lien Documents, if any, to provide that, notwithstanding:

(1) anything to the contrary contained in the security documents;

(2) the time of incurrence of any Series of Secured Debt;

The Subordinated Lien Representative of each future Series of Subordinated Lien Debt will be required to deliver a Lien Sharing and Priority Confirmation to the collateral trustee at the time of incurrence of such Series of Subordinated Lien Debt.

Relative Rights

Nothing in the note documents will:

(1) impair, as between the Issuer and the holders of the notes, the obligation of the Issuer to pay principal, interest, premium, if any, or Special Interest, if any, on the notes in accordance with their terms or any other obligation of the Issuer or any Guarantor under the note documents;

(2) affect the relative rights of holders of notes as against any other creditors of the Issuer or any Guarantor (other than as expressly specified in the intercreditor agreement or the collateral trust agreement);

(3) restrict the right of any holder of notes to sue for payments that are then due and owing (but not the right to enforce any judgment in respect thereof against any Collateral to the extent specifically prohibited by the provisions of the intercreditor agreement or the collateral trust agreement, as generally described above under the captions “— The Intercreditor Agreement” and “— The Collateral Trust Agreement”;

(4) restrict or prevent any holder of notes or other Priority Lien Obligations, the trustee, the collateral trustee or any other person from exercising any of its rights or remedies upon a Default or Event of Default not specifically restricted or prohibited by the provisions of the intercreditor agreement or the collateral trust agreement, as generally described above under the captions “— The Intercreditor Agreement” and “— The Collateral Trust Agreement”; or

160

Further Assurances

The indenture provides that the Issuer and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors will do or cause to be done all acts and things that may be reasonably required, or that the collateral trustee from time to time may reasonably request, to assure and confirm that the collateral trustee holds, for the benefit of the holders of Obligations under the notes documents, duly created and enforceable and perfected Liens upon the Collateral (including any property or assets that are acquired or otherwise become Collateral), in each case, as and to the extent contemplated by, and with the Lien priority required under, the Secured Debt Documents.

The collateral trust agreement provides that, upon the reasonable request of the collateral trustee or any Secured Debt Representative at any time and from time to time, the Issuer and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors will promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver such security documents, instruments, certificates, notices and other documents, and take such other actions as may be reasonably required, or that the collateral trustee may reasonably request, to create, perfect, protect, assure or enforce the Liens and benefits intended to be conferred, in each case as and to the extent contemplated by the Secured Debt Documents for the benefit of the holders of Secured Obligations.

Insurance

The indenture requires that the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors:

(1) keep their properties insured and maintain such general liability, automobile liability, workers’ compensation/employers’ liability, property casualty insurance and any excess umbrella coverage related to any of the foregoing as is customary for companies in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations;

(2) maintain such other insurance as may be required by law; and

(3) maintain such other insurance as may be required by the security documents relating to the Notes.

The indenture provides that upon the request of the trustee or the collateral trustee, the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors will furnish to the trustee or collateral trustee full information as to their property and liability insurance carriers. The indenture requires that the Issuer (x) provide the trustee and the collateral trustee with notice of cancellation or modification with respect to its property and casualty policies before the effective date of such cancellation or modification and (y) name the trustee or collateral trustee as a co-loss payee on property and casualty policies and as an additional insured as its interests may appear on the liability policies listed in clause (1) above.

Compliance with the Trust Indenture Act

The indenture has been qualified under and is subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act. To the extent applicable, the indenture requires the Issuer to comply with the provisions of TIA § 314 and to cause TIA § 313(b), relating to reports, and TIA § 314(d), relating to the release of property or securities or relating to the substitution therefor of any property or securities to be subjected to the Lien of the security documents, to be complied with. Any certificate or opinion required by TIA § 314(d) may be made by an officer of the Issuer except in cases where TIA § 314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent Person, which Person will be an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert selected by or reasonably satisfactory to the trustee.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding paragraph, the Issuer will not be required to comply with all or any portion of TIA § 314(d) if the Issuer determines, in good faith, that under the terms of TIA § 314(d)and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the Commission and its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of TIA § 314(d) is inapplicable to released collateral. The Issuer and the Guarantors may, subject to the provisions of the indenture, among other things, without any release or consent by the trustee or the collateral trustee or any holder of Priority Lien Obligations, conduct ordinary course activities with respect to the Collateral.

161

Mandatory Redemption

The Issuer is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the notes.

Optional Redemption

At any time prior to December 15, 2012, the Issuer may, on any one or more occasions, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued under the indenture (including the exchange notes offered hereby, the original first lien notes, the additional first lien notes and any additional notes) at a redemption price of 109.50% of the principal amount thereof,plusaccrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest (if any) thereon to the applicable redemption date, with all or a portion of the net cash proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity Offerings;providedthat:

(1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued under the indenture (including any additional notes) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding notes held by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries); and

(2) the redemption must occur within 90 days of the date of the closing of such Qualified Equity Offering.

At any time prior to December 15, 2012, the Issuer may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the notes, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed,plusthe Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest (if any) to, the date of redemption, subject to the rights of holders of notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

Except pursuant to the two preceding paragraphs, the notes will not be redeemable at the Issuer’s option prior to December 15, 2012.

On or after December 15, 2012, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the notes upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth belowplusaccrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, thereon, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the12-month period beginning on December 15 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of holders of notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date:

Year	Percentage
2012		107.125%
2013		104.750%
2014		102.375%
2015 and thereafter		100.000%

If less than all of the notes are to be redeemed at any time, the trustee will select notes for redemption on apro ratabasis (or, in the case of notes issued in global form as discussed under “— Book-Entry, Delivery and Form”, based on a method that most nearly approximates apro rataselection as the trustee deems fair and appropriate) unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange or depositary requirements.

No notes of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. Notices of redemption shall be sent electronically or mailed by first class mail or as otherwise provided in accordance with the procedures of DTC at least 15 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of notes to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the indenture. Notices of redemption may be given prior to the completion thereof, and any redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the Qualified Equity Offering.

If any note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original note will be issued in the name of the holder thereof upon cancellation of the original note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, unless the Issuer

162

defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest ceases to accrue on notes or portions of them called for redemption.

The Issuer or its Affiliates may acquire notes by means other than a redemption from time to time, including through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers, exchange offers or otherwise so long as the acquisition does not otherwise violate the terms of the indenture, upon such terms and at such prices as the Issuer or its Affiliates may determine which may be more or less than the consideration for which the notes offered hereby are being sold and could be for cash or other consideration.

Repurchase at the Option of Holders

Change of Control

If a Change of Control occurs, each holder of notes will have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that holder’s notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer on the terms set forth in the indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuer will offer a Change of Control Payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of notes repurchasedplusaccrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest (if any) thereon, to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of holders of notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control (or prior to the Change of Control if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control), the Issuer will send a notice to each holder electronically or by first class mail at its registered address or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase notes on the Change of Control Payment Date specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by the indenture and described in such notice. The Issuer will comply with the requirements ofRule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of the indenture, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control provisions of the indenture by virtue of such compliance.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

(1) accept for payment all notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all notes or portions thereof properly tendered; and

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the trustee the notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer stating the aggregate principal amount of notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Issuer.

The paying agent will promptly mail or wire transfer to each holder of notes properly tendered and so accepted the Change of Control Payment for such notes, and the trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each holder a new note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the notes surrendered, if any;providedthat each such new note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. Any note so accepted for payment will cease to accrue interest on and after the Change of Control Payment Date.

The provisions described above that require the Issuer to make a Change of Control Offer in connection with a Change of Control will be applicable regardless of whether any other provisions of the indenture are applicable. Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control, the indenture does not contain provisions that permit the holders of the notes to require that the Issuer repurchase or redeem the notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.

163

The Change of Control purchase feature of the notes may in certain circumstances make more difficult or discourage a sale or takeover of the Issuer and, thus, the removal of incumbent management. The Change of Control purchase feature is a result of negotiations between the Issuer and the initial purchasers.

The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (2) a notice of redemption has been given for all of the notes pursuant to the indenture as described above under the caption “— Optional Redemption”, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, subject to one or more conditions precedent, including but not limited to the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

The ABL Credit Facility provides that certain change of control events will constitute a default under the ABL Credit Facility. Credit agreements that the Issuer enters into in the future may contain similar provisions. Such defaults could result in amounts outstanding under the ABL Credit Facility and such other agreements being declared immediately due and payable or lending commitments being terminated. Additionally, the Issuer’s ability to pay cash to holders of notes following the occurrence of a Change of Control may be limited by its then existing financial resources; sufficient funds may not be available to the Issuer when necessary to make any required repurchases of notes. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Notes — We May Not Have the Ability to Raise the Funds Necessary to Finance the Change of Control Offer or the Asset Sale Offer Required by the Indenture Governing the Notes”.

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of “all or substantially all” of the properties or assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all”, there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of notes to require the Issuer to repurchase such notes as a result of a sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to another Person or group may be uncertain.

A Change of Control would be triggered at such time as a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or Parent are not Continuing Directors (defined as directors serving on December 21, 2009, nominated by directors a majority of whom were serving on December 21, 2009 or nominated or elected by our sponsor). You should note, however, that recent case law suggests that, in the event that incumbent directors are replaced as a result of a contested election, issuers may nevertheless avoid triggering a Change of Control under a clause similar to the provision described in the prior sentence if the outgoing directors were to approve the new directors for the purpose of such Change of Control clause.

Asset Sales

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(1) the Issuer (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of;

(2) with respect to Asset Sales involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, such fair market value is determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer or Parent; and

(3) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets or a combination of cash, Cash Equivalents or

164

Replacement Assets;providedthat, for purposes of this provision, each of the following shall be deemed to be cash:

(a) any liabilities (as shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto), of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities, Indebtedness that is by its terms contractually subordinated in right of payment to the notes or any Note Guarantee and liabilities to the extent owed to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets or Equity Interests pursuant to an agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from further liability;

(b) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days (to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion); and

(c) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (c) that is at the time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (x) $75.0 million and (y) 2.5% of the Issuer’s Consolidated Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale other than (1) a Sale of Notes Priority Collateral or (2) a Sale of a Subsidiary Guarantor, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply such Net Proceeds at its option and to the extent it so elects:

(1) to repay, repurchase or redeem Priority Lien Obligations (including Priority Lien Obligations under the notes) or ABL Debt Obligations;

(2) to repay any Indebtedness secured by a Permitted Prior Lien;

(3) to repay Indebtedness and other obligations of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary;

(4) to repay other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor (other than any Disqualified Stock or any Indebtedness that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to the notes), other than Indebtedness owed to Parent, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer;providedthat the Issuer shall equally and ratably redeem or repurchase the notes as described under the caption “— Optional Redemption”, through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all holders to purchase the notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof,plusthe amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of notes that would otherwise be prepaid;

(5) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer;

(6) to make an Investment in Replacement Assets or make a capital expenditure in or that is used or useful in a Permitted Business; or

(7) any combination of the foregoing;

providedthat the Issuer will be deemed to have complied with the provisions described in clauses (5) and (6) of this paragraph if and to the extent that, within 365 days after the Asset Sale that generated the Net Proceeds, the Issuer has entered into and not abandoned or rejected a binding agreement to acquire the assets or Capital Stock of a Permitted Business, make an Investment in Replacement Assets or make a capital expenditure in compliance with the provision described in clauses (5) and (6) of this paragraph, and that acquisition, purchase or capital expenditure is thereafter completed within 180 days after the end of such365-day period. Pending the final application of any

165

such Net Proceeds, the Issuer may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the indenture.

Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale that constitutes (1) a Sale of Notes Priority Collateral or (2) a Sale of a Subsidiary Guarantor, the Issuer (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may apply an amount equal to such Net Proceeds:

(1) to make an Investment in other assets or property that would constitute Notes Priority Collateral;

(2) to make an Investment in Capital Stock of another Permitted Business if, after giving effect to such Investment, the Permitted Business becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor or is merged into or consolidated with the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor;

(3) to make a capital expenditure with respect to assets that constitute Notes Priority Collateral;

(4) to repay Indebtedness secured by a Permitted Prior Lien on any Notes Priority Collateral that was sold in such Asset Sale;

(5) to repay, repurchase or redeem Priority Lien Obligations (including Priority Lien Obligations under the notes);providedthat the Issuer shall equally and ratably redeem or repurchase the notes as described under the caption “— Optional Redemption”, through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all holders to purchase the notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof,plusthe amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of notes that would otherwise be prepaid; or

(6) any combination of the foregoing;

providedthat the Issuer will be deemed to have complied with the provision described in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of this paragraph if, and to the extent that, within 365 days after the Asset Sale that generated the Net Proceeds, the Issuer has entered into and not abandoned or rejected a binding agreement to make an Investment in assets or property that would constitute Notes Priority Collateral or make an Investment in Capital Stock of another Permitted Business or to make a capital expenditure with respect to assets that constitute Notes Priority Collateral in compliance with the provisions described in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of this paragraph, and that purchase or capital expenditure is thereafter completed within 180 days after the end of such365-day period.

Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as described in the two preceding paragraphs will constitute“Excess Proceeds”. Within 10 business days after the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $35.0 million, the Issuer will make an Asset Sale Offer to all holders of notes and all holders of other Priority Lien Debt containing provisions similar to those set forth in the indenture with respect to offers to purchase with the proceeds of sales of assets, to purchase the maximum principal amount of notes and such other Priority Lien Debt that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price for the notes and any other Priority Lien Debt in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes and such other Priority Lien Debt purchased,plusaccrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest (if any) on the notes and any other Priority Lien Debt to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer may use such Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of notes and such other Priority Lien Debt tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the notes and such other Priority Lien Debt shall be purchased on apro ratabasis based on the principal amount of notes and such other Priority Lien Debt tendered. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. The Issuer may satisfy the foregoing obligation with respect to any Net Proceeds prior to the expiration of the relevant 365 day period (as such period may be extended in accordance with the indenture) or with respect to Excess Proceeds of $35.0 million or less.

The ABL Credit Facility provides that certain asset sales will constitute a default under the ABL Credit Facility. Credit agreements that the Issuer enters into in the future may contain similar provisions. Such defaults could result in amounts outstanding under the ABL Credit Facility and such other agreements being declared immediately due and payable or lending commitments being terminated. Additionally, the Issuer’s ability to pay cash to holders of notes following the occurrence of an Asset Sale may be limited by their then existing financial

166

resources; sufficient funds may not be available to the Issuer when necessary to make any required repurchases of notes. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Notes — We May Not Have the Ability to Raise the Funds Necessary to Finance the Change of Control Offer or the Asset Sale Offer Required by the Indenture Governing the Exchange Notes”.

The Issuer will comply with the requirements ofRule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale provisions of the indenture, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of the indenture by virtue of such compliance.

Certain Covenants

Effectiveness of Certain Covenants

If on any date following December 21, 2009:

(1) the notes are rated Baa3 or better by Moody’s and BBB- or better by S&P (or, if either such entity ceases to rate the notes for reasons outside of the control of the Issuer, the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any other “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning ofRule 15c3-1(c)(2)(vi)(F) under the Exchange Act selected by the Issuer as a replacement agency); and

(2) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then, beginning on that day and subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, the covenants specifically listed under the following captions in this offering circular will be suspended:

(1) ‘‘— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Asset Sales”;

(2) ‘‘— Certain Covenants — Restricted Payments”;

(3) ‘‘— Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock”;

(4) ‘‘— Certain Covenants — Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries”;

(5) clause (3) of “— Certain Covenants — Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets”;

(6) ‘‘— Certain Covenants — Transactions with Affiliates”;

(7) ‘‘— Certain Covenants — Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries”;

(8) ‘‘— Certain Covenants — Guarantees”; and

(9) ‘‘— Certain Covenants — Reports”.

During any period that the foregoing covenants have been suspended, the Issuer’s or Parent’s Board of Directors may not designate any of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the covenant described below under the caption “— Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries”.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the rating assigned by either such rating agency should subsequently decline to below Baa3 or BBB-, respectively, the foregoing covenants will be reinstituted as of and from the date of such rating decline. Calculations under the reinstated “Restricted Payments” covenant will be made as if the “Restricted Payments” covenant had been in effect since December 21, 2009 except that no Default will be deemed to have occurred solely by reason of a Restricted Payment made while that covenant was suspended.

167

The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other

175

Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this covenant, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that may be incurred pursuant to this covenant will not be deemed to be exceeded, with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness, due solely to the result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies. In addition, for purposes of determining any particular amount of Indebtedness, any Guarantees, Liens or obligations with respect to letters of credit, in each case, supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the determination of such particular amount, will not be included.

The Issuer will not incur, and will not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to incur, any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the notes and the applicable Note Guarantees on substantially identical terms;provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a junior priority basis or by virtue of the fact that the holders of any secured Indebtedness have entered into intercreditor agreements giving one or more of such holders priority over the other holders in the collateral held by them.

Liens

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired.

Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

(1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock (or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits) to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(2) make loans or advances to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(3) transfer any of its properties or assets to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions:

(1) existing under, by reason of or with respect to the ABL Credit Facility, Existing Indebtedness, or any other agreements in effect on December 21, 2009 and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, extensions, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof;providedthat the encumbrances and restrictions in any such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, extensions, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those in effect on December 21, 2009;

(2) existing under, by reason of or with respect to any other Credit Facility of the Issuer permitted under the indenture; providedthat the applicable encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreement or agreements governing the other Credit Facility are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the ABL Credit Facility (with respect to other credit agreements) or the indenture (with respect to other indentures), in each case as in effect on December 21, 2009;

(3) existing under, by reason of or with respect to applicable law, rule, regulation or administrative or court order;

176

(4) with respect to any Person or the property or assets of a Person acquired by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries existing at the time of such acquisition and not incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition, which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, extensions, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof; providedthat the encumbrances and restrictions in any such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, extensions, increases, supplements, refundings, replacement or refinancings are entered into in the ordinary course of business or not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the ABL Credit Facility, the indenture, Existing Indebtedness or such other agreements as in effect on the date of the acquisition;

(5) in the case of the provision described in clause (3) of the first paragraph of this covenant:

(a) that restrict in a customary manner the subletting, assignment or transfer of any property or asset that is a lease, license, conveyance or contract or similar property or asset,

(b) existing by virtue of any transfer of, agreement to transfer, option or right with respect to, or Lien on, any property or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof not otherwise prohibited by the indenture,

(c) existing under, by reason of or with respect to (i) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business or (ii) capital leases or operating leases that impose encumbrances or restrictions on the property so acquired or covered thereby, or

(d) arising or agreed to in the ordinary course of business, not relating to any Indebtedness, and that do not, individually or in the aggregate, detract from the value of property or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof in any manner material to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof;

(6) existing under, by reason of or with respect to customary provisions in joint venture, operating or similar agreements, asset sale agreements and stock sale agreements arising in connection with the entering into of such transactions;

(7) existing under, by reason of or with respect to any agreement for the sale or other disposition of some or all of the Capital Stock of, or any property and assets of, a Restricted Subsidiary that restricted distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending the closing of such sale or other disposition;

(8) existing under, by reason of or with respect to Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; providedthat the encumbrances and restrictions contained in the agreements governing that Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;

(9) restricting cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(10) existing under, by reason of or with respect to customary provisions contained in leases or licenses of intellectual property and other agreements, in each case, entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(11) existing under, by reason of or with respect to the indenture, the notes, the Note Guarantees and the security documents; and

(12) existing under, by reason of or with respect to Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary not prohibited to be incurred under the indenture;providedthat (a) such encumbrances or restrictions are ordinary and customary in light of the type of Indebtedness being incurred and the jurisdiction of the obligor and (b) such encumbrances or restrictions will not affect in any material respect the Issuer’s or any Subsidiary Guarantor’s ability to make principal and interest payments on the notes, as determined in good faith by the Issuer.

For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, (1) the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to distributions being paid on common stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock and (2) the subordination of loans or advances made

177

to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer to other Indebtedness incurred by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances.

Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets

The Issuer will not, directly or indirectly:  (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Issuer is the surviving corporation) or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person or Persons, unless:

(1) either: (a) the Issuer is the surviving corporation; or (b) the Person formed by or surviving such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition shall have been made (i) is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership (including a limited partnership) or trust organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia (providedthat if such Person is not a corporation, (A) a corporate Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of such Person organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia, or (B) a corporation of which such Person is a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia, is a co-issuer of the notes or becomes a co-issuer of the notes in connection therewith) and (ii) assumes all the obligations of the Issuer under the notes, the indenture and the exchange and registration rights agreements pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the trustee;

(2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction no Event of Default exists;

(3) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, on apro formabasis, either

(a) the Issuer or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer) would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the caption “— Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock”; or

(b) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Issuer or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer) would not be less than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Issuer immediately prior to such transactions; and

(4) each Guarantor, unless such Guarantor is the Person with which the Issuer has entered into a transaction under the covenant described under the caption “— Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets”, shall have by amendment to its Note Guarantee confirmed that its Note Guarantee shall apply to the obligations of the Issuer or the surviving Person in accordance with the notes and the indenture.

The provision described in clause (3) of the immediately preceding paragraph will not apply to (a) any merger, consolidation or sale, assignment, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (b) any merger between the Issuer and an Affiliate of the Issuer, or between a Restricted Subsidiary and an Affiliate of the Issuer, in each case in this clause (b) solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia or any territory thereof, so long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby.

Transactions with Affiliates

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into, make, amend, renew or extend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or

178

Guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate involving aggregate consideration in excess of $3.5 million (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless:

(1) such Affiliate Transaction is on fair and reasonable terms not materially less favorable to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than it would obtain in a hypothetical comparable arm’s-length transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with a Person that was not an Affiliate of the Issuer; and

(2) the Issuer delivers to the trustee with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of

related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of Parent set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions complies with this covenant and that such Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of Parent’s Board of Directors.

The following items shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

(1) transactions between or among the Issuerand/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(2) payment of reasonable fees and compensation to, and indemnification and similar arrangements on behalf of, current, former or future directors of Parent, any other direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer;

(5) loans and advances to officers and employees of Parent, any other direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries or guarantees in respect thereof or otherwise made on the Issuer’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ behalf (or the cancellation of such loans, advances or guarantees), in both cases for bona fide business purposes in the ordinary course of business;

(6) any employment, consulting, service or termination agreement, or customary indemnification arrangements, entered into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with current, former or future officers and employees of Parent, the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and the payment of compensation to officers and employees of Parent, the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including amounts paid pursuant to employee benefit plans, employee stock option or similar plans), in each case in the ordinary course of business;

(7) transactions with a Person that is an Affiliate of the Issuer solely because the Issuer, directly or indirectly, owns Equity Interests in, or controls, such Person;

(8) payments by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and its Affiliates for any financial advisory services, financing, mergers and acquisitions advisory, insurance brokerage, underwriting or placement services or in respect of other investment banking services, including without limitation, in connection with acquisitions or divestitures, which payments are approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of Parent in good faith;

(9) transactions pursuant to any contracts, instruments or other agreements or arrangements in each case as in effect on December 21, 2009, and any transactions contemplated thereby, or any amendment, modification or supplement thereto or any replacement thereof entered into from time to time, as long as such agreement or arrangement as so amended, modified, supplemented or replaced, taken as a whole, is not materially more disadvantageous to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries at the time executed than the original agreement or arrangement as in effect on December 21, 2009;

(10) any Guarantee by Parent or any other direct or indirect parent of the Issuer of Indebtedness of the Issuer that was permitted by the indenture;

179

(11) transactions with Affiliates solely in their capacity as holders of Indebtedness or Equity Interests of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, so long as such transaction is with all holders of such class (and there are such non-Affiliate holders) and such Affiliates are treated no more favorably than all other holders of such class generally;

(12) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services (including pursuant to joint venture agreements) in the ordinary course of business on terms not materially less favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Issuer, as determined in good faith by the Issuer;

(13) transactions in which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a letter from an independent financial advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of prong (1) of the previous paragraph of this covenant;

(14) the existence of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of, any registration rights agreement to which it is a party or becomes a party in the future;

(16) any transaction with any Person who is not an Affiliate immediately before the consummation of such transaction that becomes an Affiliate as a result of such transaction;

(17) the pledge of Equity Interests of any Unrestricted Subsidiary to lenders to support the Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary owed to such lenders; and

(18) payments by the Issuer (or Parent or any other direct or indirect parent of the Issuer) or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to any tax sharing, allocation or similar agreement.

Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries

The Board of Directors of the Issuer or Parent may designate any Subsidiary (including any existing Subsidiary and any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary;providedthat:

(1) any Guarantee by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer of any Indebtedness of the Subsidiary being so designated will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary (or both, if applicable) at the time of such designation, and such incurrence of Indebtedness would be permitted under the covenant described above under the caption “— Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock”;

(2) the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary being so designated (including any Guarantee by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer of any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary) will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of such designation and that such Investment would be permitted under the covenant described above under the caption “— Certain Covenants — Restricted Payments”;

(3) such Subsidiary does not own any Equity Interests of, or hold any Liens on any property of, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than Equity Interests of any Restricted Subsidiary of such Subsidiary that is concurrently being designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary);

(4) the Subsidiary being so designated, after giving effect to such designation:

(a) is not party to any agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that would not be permitted under “— Certain Covenants — Transactions with Affiliates” after giving effect to the exceptions thereto;

(b) is a Person with respect to which neither the Issuer nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has any direct or indirect obligation (i) to subscribe for additional Equity Interests or (ii) to maintain or preserve such Person’s financial condition or to cause such Person to achieve any specified levels of operating

180

results except to the extent permitted under “— Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock” and “— Certain Covenants — Restricted Payments”; and

(c) (i) has not guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided credit support for any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, except to the extent such Guarantee or credit support would be released upon such designation and (ii) to the extent the Indebtedness of the Subsidiary is non-recourse Indebtedness, any Guarantee or credit support by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary would be permitted under “— Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock” and “— Certain Covenants — Restricted Payments”; and

(5) no Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

Any designation of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be evidenced to the trustee by filing with the trustee a certified copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or Parent giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by the indenture. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet any of the preceding requirements described in clause (4) above, it shall thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of the indenture and any Indebtedness, Investments or Liens on the property of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred or made by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer as of such date and, if such Indebtedness, Investments or Liens are not permitted to be incurred or made as of such date under the indenture, the Issuer shall be in default under the indenture.

The Board of Directors of the Issuer or Parent may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary;providedthat:

(1) such designation shall be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation shall only be permitted if such Indebtedness is permitted under the covenant described under the caption “— Certain Covenants — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock”; calculated on apro formabasis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period;

(2) all outstanding Investments owned by such Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be made as of the time of such designation and such Investments shall only be permitted if such Investments would be permitted under the covenant described above under the caption “— Certain Covenants — Restricted Payments”;

(3) all Liens upon property or assets of such Unrestricted Subsidiary existing at the time of such designation would be permitted under the caption “— Certain Covenants — Liens”; and

(4) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

Guarantees

If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (a) acquires or creates another Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) on or after December 21, 2009 or (b) any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer becomes a guarantor with respect to the ABL Credit Facility or any other indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, then, within 45 days of the date of such acquisition or guarantee, as applicable, such Subsidiary must become a Subsidiary Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture and deliver an Opinion of Counsel to the trustee.

The Issuer will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to Guarantee any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor (including, but not limited to, any Indebtedness under any Credit Facility) unless such subsidiary is a Subsidiary Guarantor or simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental indenture providing for the Guarantee of the payment of the notes by such Restricted Subsidiary, which Guarantee shall be senior in right of payment to orpari passuin right of payment with such Restricted Subsidiary’s Guarantee of such other Indebtedness. This covenant shall not be applicable to any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in

181

connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary. In addition, in the event that any Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary that is an Excluded Subsidiary ceases to be an Excluded Subsidiary, or if any Excluded Subsidiary becomes a guarantor with respect to the ABL Credit Facility or any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, then such Subsidiary must become a Subsidiary Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture and deliver an Opinion of Counsel to the trustee within 45 days of the date of such event. The form of the Note Guarantee will be attached as an exhibit to the indenture.

A Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person), another Person, other than the Issuer or another Guarantor, unless:

(1) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(2) either:

(a) the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Guarantor) (i) is organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (providedthat the provisions described in this clause (i) shall not apply if such Guarantor is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia) and (ii) assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under the indenture, its Note Guarantee and the exchange and registration rights agreements pursuant to a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the trustee; or

(b) in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, such sale or other disposition or consolidation or merger complies with the covenant described above under the caption “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Asset Sales”.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Guarantor may (i) merge with the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Guarantor in the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia or any territory thereof or (ii) convert into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company or trust organized under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such Guarantor, in each case without regard to the requirements set forth in clause (1) of the preceding paragraph.

The Note Guarantee of Parent will automatically and unconditionally be released without the need for any further action by any party upon written notice from the Issuer to the trustee. The Note Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor will automatically and unconditionally be released without the need for any action by any party:

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of a Subsidiary Guarantor (including by way of consolidation or merger or otherwise) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Subsidiary of the Issuer, such that, immediately after giving effect to such transaction, such Guarantor would no longer constitute a Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale of such Capital Stock of that Subsidiary Guarantor complies with the covenants described above under the caption “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Asset Sales” and “— Certain Covenants — Restricted Payments”;

(2) in connection with the merger or consolidation of a Subsidiary Guarantor with any other Subsidiary Guarantor;

(3) in the event of the release of the guarantee under the ABL Credit Facility of a Subsidiary Guarantor that is not (a) a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary or (b) a Restricted Subsidiary that guarantees Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor;

(4) if the Issuer properly designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under the indenture;

(5) upon the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the indenture;

(6) solely in the case of a Note Guarantee created pursuant to the provision described in the second paragraph under the caption “— Guarantees”, upon the release or discharge of the Guarantee which resulted in

182

the creation of such Note Guarantee pursuant to the covenant described under the caption “— Guarantees”, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee”; or

(7) upon a liquidation or dissolution of a Subsidiary Guarantor permitted under the indenture.

In addition, the Note Guarantee of any Subsidiary Guarantor will be released in connection with a sale of all of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor in a transaction that complies with the conditions in the third paragraph under the caption “— Guarantees” above. Also, notwithstanding any other provision in the indenture, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (including any Subsidiary Guarantor) may be liquidated at any time, so long as all assets owned by such entity which constitute Collateral remain Collateral owned by the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor following any such liquidation.

Reports

Whether or not the Issuer is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, so long as any notes are outstanding, the Issuer will furnish to the holders of notes or cause the trustee to furnish to the holders of notes or post on its website or file with the Commission for public availability:

(1) all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission onForms 10-Q and10-K if the Issuer were required to file such reports, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and, with respect to the annual information only, a report (whether or not unqualified) thereon by the Issuer’s certified independent accountants, which reports shall be filed (a) in the case of quarterly reports, within 15 days after the time period specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations and (b) in the case of annual reports, within 30 days after the time period specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations; and

(2) as soon as practicable, and in any event 5 days after the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations, all current reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission onForm 8-K if the Issuer were required to file such reports;

provided, however,that if the last day of any such time period is not a business day, such report will be due on the next succeeding business day.

All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports, except that such reports will not be required to contain separate financial information for Subsidiary Guarantors or Subsidiaries whose securities are pledged to secure the notes that would be required underRule 3-10 orRule 3-16 ofRegulation S-X promulgated by the Commission, except to the extent required by the rules and regulations of the Commission actually applicable to the Issuer at such time.

If, at any time after consummation of the exchange offer contemplated by the registration rights agreement, the Issuer is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Issuer will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding paragraphs of this covenant with the Commission within the time periods specified above unless the Commission will not accept such a filing. The Issuer will not take any action for the purpose of causing the Commission not to accept any such filings. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Commission will not accept the Issuer’s filings for any reason, the Issuer will post the reports referred to in the preceding paragraphs on its website within the time periods specified above.

If the Issuer has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by the preceding paragraphs will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer.

In the event that (1) the rules and regulations of the Commission permit the Issuer and Parent, or any other direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, to report at such parent entity’s level on a consolidated basis and (2) such parent entity of the Issuer is not engaged in any business in any material respect other than incidental to its

183

ownership, directly or indirectly, of the Capital Stock of the Issuer, the information and reports required by this covenant may be those of such parent company on a consolidated basis.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to completion of the exchange offer or effectiveness of the shelf registration statement contemplated by the exchange and registration rights agreements, the requirements above will be deemed satisfied (1) by the filing with the Commission of the exchange offer registration statement or shelf registration statement and any amendments thereto, within the time periods set forth above, with such financial information that satisfiesRegulation S-X of the Securities Act or (2) by posting reports that would be required to be filed substantially in the form required by the Commission on the Issuer’s website (or the website of Parent or other direct or indirect parent of the Issuer) or providing such reports to the trustee, subject to exceptions consistent with the presentation of financial information in this prospectus.

In addition, the Issuer and the Guarantors agree that, for so long as any notes remain outstanding, if at any time they are not required to file with the Commission the reports required by the preceding paragraphs, they will furnish to the holders of notes and to securities analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuer will not be deemed to have failed to comply with any of its agreements set forth under this covenant for purposes of clause (4) under “Events of Default and Remedies” until 90 days after the date any report required to be provided by this covenant is due.

Events of Default and Remedies

Each of the following is an Event of Default:

(1) default for 30 consecutive days in the payment when due of interest on, or Special Interest with respect to, the notes;

(2) default in payment when due (whether at maturity, upon acceleration, redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the notes;

(3) failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with the provisions described under the captions “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Change of Control”, “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Asset Sales”, or “— Certain Covenants — Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” or the provisions described in the third paragraph under the caption “— Certain Covenants — Guarantees” for 30 days after written notice by the trustee or holders representing 25% or more of the aggregate principal amount of notes outstanding;

(4) failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after written notice by the trustee or holders representing 25% or more of the aggregate principal amount of notes outstanding to comply with any of the agreements in the indenture or the security documents for the benefit of the holders of the notes other than those referred to in clauses (1)-(3) above;

(5) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there is issued or by which there is secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Significant Subsidiaries (or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer), or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Significant Subsidiaries (or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after December 21, 2009, if that default:

(a) is caused by a failure to make any payment when due at the final maturity of such Indebtedness (after giving effect to any applicable grace period) (a “Payment Default”); or

(b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity,

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $50.0 million or more;

184

(6) failure by the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Significant Subsidiaries (or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer) to pay non-appealable final judgments aggregating in excess of $50.0 million (excluding amounts covered by insurance provided by a carrier that has acknowledged coverage and has the ability to perform), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of more than 60 days after such judgments have become final and non-appealable and, in the event such judgment is covered by insurance, an enforcement proceeding has been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or decree which is not promptly stayed;

(7) the occurrence of any of the following:

(a) any security document for the benefit of holders of the notes is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect in any material respect, other than in accordance with the terms of the relevant security documents; or

(b) except as permitted by the indenture, any Priority Lien for the benefit of holders of the notes purported to be granted under any security document for the benefit of holders of the notes on Collateral, individually or in the aggregate, having a fair market value in excess of $50.0 million ceases to be an enforceable and perfected first-priority Lien in any material respect, subject only to Permitted Prior Liens, and such condition continues for 60 days after written notice by the trustee or the collateral trustee of failure to comply with such requirement; provided that it will not be an Event of Default under this clause 7(b) if such condition results from the action or inaction of the trustee or the collateral trustee; or

(c) the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor (or any such Subsidiary Guarantors that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), or any Person acting on behalf of any of them, denies or disaffirms, in writing, any material obligation of the Issuer or such Significant Subsidiary that is a Guarantor (or such Subsidiary Guarantors that together constitute a Significant Subsidiary) set forth in or arising under any security document for the benefit of holders of the notes;

(8) except as permitted by the indenture, any Note Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer (or any such Subsidiary Guarantors that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect in any material respect or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm in writing its obligations under its Note Guarantee if, and only if, in each such case, such Default continues for 21 days after notice of such Default shall have been given to the trustee; and

(9) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer (or any Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary).

In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, with respect to the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer (or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), all outstanding notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding notes may declare all the notes to be due and payable immediately by notice in writing to the Issuer specifying the Event of Default(s).

Holders of the notes may not enforce the indenture or the notes except as provided in the indenture. Subject to certain limitations, holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding notes may direct the trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The trustee may withhold from holders of the notes notice of any Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest or premium, if any, or Special Interest, if any) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. In addition, the trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate the notes if in the best judgment of the trustee acceleration is not in the best interest of the holders of the notes.

In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (5) above, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of acceleration of the notes) shall be

185

annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the trustee or the holders, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose:

(1) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged;

(2) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or

(3) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding by notice to the trustee may on behalf of the holders of all of the notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the indenture or the security documents except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or Special Interest, if any, on, premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the notes and may rescind any acceleration with respect to the notes and its consequences (provided such rescission would not conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the trustee. However, the trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the indenture, that may involve the trustee in personal liability, or that the trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of holders of notes not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from holders of notes. A holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to the indenture or the notes unless each of the following conditions is met:

(1) the holder gives the trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(2) the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding notes make a written request to the trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such holder or holders offer the trustee indemnity, security or prefunding reasonably satisfactory to the trustee against any costs, loss, liability or expense;

(4) the trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and

(5) during such60-day period, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes do not give the trustee a direction that is inconsistent with the request.

However, such limitations do not apply to the right of any holder of a note to receive payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or Special Interest, if any, or interest on, such note or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment, on or after the due date expressed in the notes, which right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the holder, except to the extent that the institution or prosecution thereof or the entry of judgment thereon would, under applicable law, result in the surrender, impairment, waiver or loss of any Lien of a security document upon any property subject to such Lien.

The Issuer is required to deliver to the trustee annually within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year a statement regarding compliance with the indenture. Within 30 days of becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, the Issuer is required to deliver to the trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default unless such Default or Event of Default has been cured before the end of the 30 day period.

In addition to acceleration of maturity of the notes, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee, the collateral trusteeand/or the holders of the notes will have the right to exercise remedies with respect to the Collateral, such as foreclosure, as are available under the indenture, the security documents and at law.

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees, Incorporators and Stockholders

No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, or of Parent or any other direct or indirect parent of the Issuer, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the notes, the indenture, the Note Guarantees or the note documents or for any claim based on, in

186

respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder of notes by accepting a note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have all of its obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding notes and all obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to their Note Guarantees (“Legal Defeasance”) and cure all then existing Events of Default except for:

(1) the rights of holders of outstanding notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium and Special Interest, if any, on such notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to below;

(2) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to the notes concerning issuing temporary notes, registration of notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the trustee, and the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith;

(4) the Legal Defeasance provisions of the indenture; and

(5) the optional redemption provisions of the indenture to the extent that Legal Defeasance is to be effected together with a redemption.

In addition, the Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have the obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors released with respect to certain covenants that are described in the indenture (“Covenant Defeasance”) and thereafter any omission to comply with those covenants shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to the notes. In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events) described under “Events of Default and Remedies” will no longer constitute Events of Default with respect to the notes.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

(1) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, a nationally recognized investment bank or a nationally recognized appraisal or valuation firm, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium and Special Interest, if any, on the outstanding notes on the Stated Maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuer must specify whether the notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, (a) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since December 21, 2009, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the holders of the outstanding notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the holders of the outstanding notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

187

(4) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make the deposit required to effect such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith);

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than the indenture) to which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound (other than that resulting with respect to any Indebtedness being defeased from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make the deposit required to effect such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to such Indebtedness, and the granting of Liens in connection therewith);

(6) the Issuer must deliver to the trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the holders of notes over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Issuer or others;

(7) if the notes are to be redeemed prior to their Stated Maturity, the Issuer must deliver to the trustee irrevocable instructions to redeem all of the notes on the specified redemption date; and

(8) the Issuer must deliver to the trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

The Collateral will be released from the Lien securing the notes, as provided under the caption “— The Collateral Trust Agreement — Release of Liens in Respect of Notes”, upon a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with the provisions described above.

Amendment, Supplement and Waiver

Except as provided in the next three succeeding paragraphs, the indenture, the notes, the Note Guarantees, or the security documents relating to the notes (subject to compliance with the intercreditor agreement and the collateral trust agreement) may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes), and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the indenture, the notes, the Note Guarantees or the security documents relating to the notes may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes).

Without the consent of each holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not (with respect to any notes held by a non-consenting holder):

(1) reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of notes whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(2) reduce the principal of, or change the Stated Maturity of, any note or alter the provisions, or waive any payment, with respect to the redemption of such notes (other than provisions relating to the covenants described under “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders” (except to the extent provided in clause (9) below));

(3) reduce the rate of, or change the time for, payment of interest on any note;

(6) make any change in the provisions of the indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of holders of notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, or Special Interest, if any, on the notes;

188

(7) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or the indenture, except in accordance with the terms of the indenture or the Note Guarantees;

(8) impair the right of any holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such holder’s notes or the Note Guarantees;

(9) amend, change or modify the obligation of the Issuer to make and consummate an Asset Sale Offer with respect to any Asset Sale in accordance with the covenant described under the caption “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Asset Sales” after the obligation to make such Asset Sale Offer has arisen, or the obligation of the Issuer to make and consummate a Change of Control Offer in the event of a Change of Control in accordance with the covenant described under the caption “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Change of Control” after such Change of Control has occurred, including, in each case, amending, changing or modifying any definition relating thereto; or

(10) make any change in the amendment and waiver provisions, except to increase any such percentage required for such actions or to provide that certain other provisions of the indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the holder of each outstanding note affected thereby.

In addition, any amendment to, or waiver of, the provisions of the indenture or any security document that has the effect of releasing all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens securing the notes will require the consent of the holders of at least 662/3% in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding (but only to the extent any such consent is required under the Collateral Trust Agreement).

Notwithstanding the preceding, without notice to or the consent of any holder of notes, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the trustee may amend or supplement the indenture, the notes, the Note Guarantees or the security documents relating to the notes to:

(1) cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency;

(2) provide for uncertificated notes in addition to or in place of certificated notes;

(14) provide for the succession of any parties to the security documents (and other amendments that are administrative or ministerial in nature) in connection with an amendment, renewal, extension, substitution, refinancing, restructuring, replacement, supplementing or other modification from time to time of any agreement in accordance with the terms of the indenture and the relevant security document;

The consent of the holders of the notes is not necessary under the indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if the consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment.

Satisfaction and Discharge

The indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all notes issued thereunder, when:

(1) either:

(a) all notes that have been authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed notes that have been replaced or paid and notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the trustee for cancellation; or

(b) all notes that have not been delivered to the trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise, will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer, and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the notes not delivered to the trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and Special Interest, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;

190

(2) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) with respect to the indenture and the notes issued thereunder on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other material instrument to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than any such default resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make the deposit and any similar simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness, and the granting of Liens in connection therewith);

In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

The Collateral will be released from the Lien securing the notes, as provided under the caption “— The Collateral Trust Agreement — Release of Liens in Respect of Notes”, upon a satisfaction and discharge in accordance with the provisions described above.

Concerning the Trustee

U.S. Bank National Association is the trustee under the indenture and has been appointed by the Issuer as paying agent and registrar with respect to the notes.

If the trustee becomes a creditor of the Issuer or any Guarantor, the indenture limits its right, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions; however, if it acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue or resign.

The indenture provides that in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the trustee will be required, in the exercise of its power, to use the degree of care of a prudent person in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request of any holder of notes, unless such holder shall have offered to the trustee security, indemnity or prefunding satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

Book-Entry, Delivery and Form

Except as set forth below, the notes will be issued in registered, global form in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The notes may be issuable from time to time in denominations of less than $2,000 solely to the extent necessary to accommodate book-entry positions that have been created in denominations of less than $2,000 by DTC.

Except as set forth below, global notes may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee. Beneficial interests in global notes may not be exchanged for definitive notes in registered certificated form (“Certificated Notes”) except in the limited circumstances described below. See “— Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes”. Except in the limited circumstances described below, owners of beneficial interests in global notes will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of notes in certificated form.

Transfers of beneficial interests in global notes will be subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its direct or indirect participants (including, if applicable, those of Euroclear and Clearstream), which may change from time to time.

191

Depository Procedures

The following description of the operations and procedures of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream are provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the control of the respective settlement systems and are subject to changes by them. The Issuer and the Guarantors take no responsibility for these operations and procedures and urge investors to contact the system or their participants directly to discuss these matters.

DTC has advised the Issuer that DTC is a limited-purpose trust company created to hold securities for its participating organizations (collectively, the“Participants”) and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of transactions in those securities between the Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of its Participants. The Participants include securities brokers and dealers (including the initial purchasers), banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Access to DTC’s system is also available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Participant, either directly or indirectly (collectively, the“Indirect Participants”). Persons who are not Participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through the Participants or the Indirect Participants. The ownership interests in, and transfers of ownership interests in, each security held by or on behalf of DTC are recorded on the records of the Participants and Indirect Participants.

DTC has also advised the Issuer that, pursuant to procedures established by it:

(1) upon deposit of the global notes, DTC will credit the accounts of the Participants designated by the initial purchasers with portions of the principal amount of the global notes; and

(2) ownership of these interests in the global notes will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership of these interests will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to the Participants) or by the Participants and the Indirect Participants (with respect to other owners of beneficial interest in the global notes).

All interests in a global note, including those held through Euroclear or Clearstream, may be subject to the procedures and requirements of DTC. Those interests held through Euroclear or Clearstream may also be subject to the procedures and requirements of such systems. The laws of some states require that certain Persons take physical delivery in definitive form of securities that they own. Consequently, the ability to transfer beneficial interests in a global note to such Persons will be limited to that extent. Because DTC can act only on behalf of the Participants, which in turn act on behalf of the Indirect Participants, the ability of a Person having beneficial interests in a global note to pledge such interests to Persons that do not participate in the DTC system, or otherwise take actions in respect of such interests, may be affected by the lack of a physical certificate evidencing such interests.

Except as described below, owners of interests in the global notes will not have notes registered in their names, will not receive physical delivery of notes in certificated form and will not be considered the registered owners or “holders” thereof under the indenture for any purpose.

Payments in respect of the principal of, and interest (including Special Interest, if any) and premium, if any, on, a global note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee will be payable to DTC in its capacity as the registered holder under the indenture. Under the terms of the indenture, the Issuer and the trustee will treat the Persons in whose names the notes, including the global notes, are registered as the owners of the notes for the purpose of receiving payments and for all other purposes. Consequently, neither the Issuer, the trustee nor any agent of the Issuer or the trustee has or will have any responsibility or liability for:

(1) any aspect of DTC’s records or any Participant’s or Indirect Participant’s records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interest in the global notes or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any of DTC’s records or any Participant’s or Indirect Participant’s records relating to the beneficial ownership interests in the global notes; or

(2) any other matter relating to the actions and practices of DTC or any of its Participants or Indirect Participants.

192

DTC has advised the Issuer that its current practice, upon receipt of any payment in respect of securities such as the notes (including principal and interest), is to credit the accounts of the relevant Participants with the payment on the payment date unless DTC has reason to believe that it will not receive payment on such payment date. Each relevant Participant is credited with an amount proportionate to its beneficial ownership of an interest in the principal amount of the relevant security as shown on the records of DTC. Payments by the Participants and the Indirect Participants to the beneficial owners of notes will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be the responsibility of the Participants or the Indirect Participants and will not be the responsibility of DTC, the trustee or the Issuer. Neither the Issuer nor the trustee will be liable for any delay by DTC or any of the Participants or the Indirect Participants in identifying the beneficial owners of the notes, and the Issuer and the trustee may conclusively rely on and will be protected in relying on instructions from DTC or its nominee for all purposes.

Transfers between the Participants will be effected in accordance with DTC’s procedures, and will be settled insame-day funds, and transfers between participants in Euroclear and Clearstream will be effected in accordance with their respective rules and operating procedures.

Cross-market transfers between the Participants, on the one hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream participants, on the other hand, will be effected through DTC in accordance with DTC’s rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by their respective depositaries; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (Brussels time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its respective depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving interests in the relevant global note in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures forsame-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Euroclear participants and Clearstream participants may not deliver instructions directly to the depositories for Euroclear or Clearstream.

DTC has advised the Issuer that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a holder of notes only at the direction of one or more Participants to whose account DTC has credited the interests in the global notes and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of the notes as to which such Participant or Participants has or have given such direction. However, if there is an Event of Default under the notes, DTC reserves the right to exchange the global notes for legended notes in certificated form, and to distribute such notes to its Participants.

Although DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream have agreed to the foregoing procedures to facilitate transfers of interests in the global notes among participants in DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, they are under no obligation to perform or to continue to perform such procedures, and may discontinue such procedures at any time. None of the Issuer, the trustee and any of their respective agents will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream or their respective participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.

Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes

A global note is exchangeable for Certificated Notes if:

(1) DTC (a) notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the global notes and the Issuer fails to appoint a successor depositary within ninety (90) days of delivery of such notice or (b) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and the Issuer fails to appoint a successor depositary within ninety (90) days of delivery of such notice;

(2) the Issuer, at its option, notifies the trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of the Certificated Notes; or

(3) there has occurred and is continuing a Default or Event of Default with respect to the notes and a Holder requests that its global note be exchanged for a Certificated Note.

In addition, beneficial interests in a global note may be exchanged for Certificated Notes upon prior written notice given to the trustee by or on behalf of DTC in accordance with the indenture. In all cases, Certificated Notes

193

delivered in exchange for any global note or beneficial interests in global notes will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the depositary (in accordance with its customary procedures) and will bear the applicable restrictive legend referred to in “Notice to Investors” in the offering memorandum dated December 16, 2009 or February 8, 2010, respectively, unless that legend is not required by applicable law.

Exchange of Certificated Notes for Global Notes

Certificated Notes may not be exchanged for beneficial interests in any global note unless the transferor first delivers to the trustee a written certificate (in the form provided in the indenture) to the effect that such transfer will comply with the appropriate transfer restrictions applicable to such notes.

Same-Day Settlement and Payment

The Issuer will make payments in respect of the notes represented by the global notes, including principal, premium, if any, and interest (including Special Interest, if any), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the holder of the global note. The Issuer will make all payments of principal, interest (including Special Interest, if any) and premium, if any, with respect to Certificated Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the holders of the Certificated Notes or, if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to each such holder’s registered address. The notes represented by the global notes are expected to be eligible to trade in DTC’sSame-Day Funds Settlement System, and any permitted secondary market trading activity in such notes will, therefore, be required by DTC to be settled in immediately available funds. The Issuer expects that secondary trading in any Certificated Notes will also be settled in immediately available funds.

Because of time zone differences, the securities account of a Euroclear or Clearstream participant purchasing an interest in a global note from a Participant will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream participant, during the securities settlement processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear and Clearstream) immediately following the settlement date of DTC. DTC has advised the Issuer that cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of sales of interests in a global note by or through a Euroclear or Clearstream participant to a Participant will be received with value on the settlement date of DTC but will be available in the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of the business day for Euroclear or Clearstream following DTC’s settlement date.

CERTAIN MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following summary describes certain material United States federal income tax consequences and, in the case of aNon-U.S. Holder (as defined below), certain material United States federal estate tax consequences, of exchanging outstanding notes for exchange notes, and purchasing, owning and disposing of exchange notes. This summary applies to you only if you are a beneficial owner of an outstanding note or an exchange note and you hold your note as a capital asset within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”) (generally, investment property).

This summary does not discuss considerations or consequences relevant to persons subject to special provisions of United States federal tax law, such as:

•  dealers in securities or currencies;

•  traders in securities;

•  U.S. Holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the United States dollar;

•  persons holding outstanding notes or exchange notes as part of a conversion, constructive sale, wash sale or other integrated transaction or a hedge, straddle or synthetic security;

•  persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;

•  certain United States expatriates;

•  financial institutions;

•  insurance companies;

•  controlled foreign corporations and passive foreign investment companies, and shareholders of such corporations;

•  regulated investment companies;

•  real estate investment trusts;

•  entities that are tax-exempt for United States federal income tax purposes and retirement plans, individual retirement accounts and tax-deferred accounts; and

•  pass-through entities, including partnerships and entities and arrangements classified as partnerships for United States federal tax purposes, and beneficial owners of pass-through entities.

If a partnership or an entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for United States federal tax purposes holds outstanding notes or exchange notes, the United States federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partnership (or an entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for United States federal tax purposes) or a partner in a partnership, you should consult your own tax advisor regarding the United States federal income and estate tax consequences of exchanging outstanding notes for exchange notes, and purchasing, owning and disposing of exchange notes.

This summary does not discuss all of the aspects of United States federal income and estate taxation that may be relevant to you in light of your particular investment or other circumstances. In addition, this summary does not discuss any United States state or local ornon-U.S. income or other tax consequences, nor does it discuss the recently enacted Medicare tax on certain investment income. This summary is based on United States federal income and estate tax law, including the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, Treasury regulations, administrative rulings and judicial authority, all as in effect or in existence as of the date of this prospectus. Subsequent developments in United States federal income and estate tax law, including changes in law or differing interpretations, which may be applied retroactively, could have a material effect on the United States federal income and estate tax consequences of exchanging outstanding notes for exchange notes, and purchasing, owning and disposing of exchange notes. Before you exchange your outstanding notes for exchange notes or purchase exchange notes, you should consult your own tax advisor regarding the particular United States federal, state and local and

225

non-U.S. income and other tax consequences of exchanging outstanding notes for exchange notes, and purchasing, owning and disposing of exchange notes.

Exchange Offer

The exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer will not be a taxable event for United States federal income tax purposes. Your tax basis in your exchange notes immediately after the exchange will be the same as your tax basis in your outstanding notes immediately before the exchange, and your holding period for your exchange notes will include your holding period for your outstanding notes.

Qualified Reopening

We issued $1,000,000,000 and $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 9.50% senior secured notes due December 15, 2016 on December 21, 2009 and February 11, 2010, respectively. We have taken the position that the issuance of outstanding notes on February 11, 2010 (the “outstanding February notes”) constituted a “qualified reopening” of our 9.50% senior secured notes due December 15, 2016 for United States federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, we have treated all of the outstanding February notes as having the same issue price as the outstanding notes issued on December 21, 2009 (the “outstanding December notes”) and therefore as having been issued with the same amount of original issue discount (“OID”) as the outstanding December notes for United States federal income tax purposes. However, the application of the qualified reopening rules is not entirely clear, and it is possible that the outstanding February notes could be treated as a separate issue from the outstanding December notes, with an issue price determined by the first price at which a substantial amount of the outstanding February notes was sold (other than to bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents, or wholesalers). In that event, the outstanding February notes would have been issued with OID in an amount different from the amount of OID on the outstanding December notes, the outstanding February notes would not have been fungible with the outstanding December notes for United States federal income tax purposes and the exchange notes received in exchange for the outstanding February notes would not be fungible with the exchange notes received in exchange for the outstanding December notes for United States federal income tax purposes. The remainder of this summary assumes that the issuance of the outstanding February notes constituted a qualified reopening of our 9.50% senior secured notes due December 15, 2016 for United States federal income tax purposes.

Pre-Issuance Accrued Interest

A portion of the offering price of the outstanding February notes included interest accrued from December 21, 2009 (the “pre-issuance accrued interest”). We have taken the position that a portion of the first interest payment on the outstanding February notes equal to the pre-issuance accrued interest was a return of the pre-issuance accrued interest rather than an amount payable on the outstanding February notes. Assuming this treatment is respected, the portion of the first interest payment on your outstanding February notes equal to the pre-issuance accrued interest would not have been treated as taxable interest income and your adjusted tax basis in the outstanding February notes would have been reduced by a corresponding amount. Holders of outstanding February notes should consult their own tax advisors about the tax treatment of the pre-issuance accrued interest on the outstanding February notes.

U.S. Holders

The following summary applies to you only if you are a “U.S. Holder”. As used in this summary, the term U.S. Holder means a beneficial owner of an outstanding note or an exchange note that is for United States federal income tax purposes:

•  an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

•  a corporation (or other entity classified as a corporation) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia;

•  an estate, the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of the source of such income; or

226

•  a trust, if (1) a United States court is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more “United States persons” (within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code) has the authority to control all of the trust’s substantial decisions, or (2) the trust has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a “United States person”.

Stated Interest and Original Issue Discount

Stated interest on your exchange notes will be taxable to you as ordinary interest income at the time it is paid or accrued in accordance with your usual method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes.

The outstanding notes were issued with OID for United States federal income tax purposes. Generally, a debt instrument is issued with OID if the excess of the stated redemption price at maturity of the debt instrument (which, in the case of the outstanding notes, equals the stated principal amount) over its issue price is equal to or greater than a de minimis amount (generally1/4 of 1 percent of the debt instrument’s stated redemption price at maturity multiplied by the number of complete years from its issue date to its maturity date). The exchange notes will be treated as issued with the same amount of OID as the outstanding notes exchanged therefor and will have the same issue date, issue price and adjusted issue price as the outstanding notes exchanged therefor.

You will be required to include OID in gross income, as ordinary income, as the OID accrues on a constant yield basis, in advance of the receipt of the cash payment attributable to the OID, regardless of your usual method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes. The amount of OID that you must include in gross income for each taxable year is the sum of the daily portions of OID that accrue on your exchange notes (including the sum of the daily portions of OID that accrue on the outstanding notes exchanged therefor) for each day of the taxable year during which you hold the exchange notes (and the outstanding notes exchanged therefor). The daily portion of OID is determined by allocating to each day of an accrual period (generally, the period between interest payment dates or compounding dates), other than an initial short accrual period or the final accrual period, a pro rata portion of the OID allocable to such accrual period. The amount of OID allocable to an accrual period is the product of the “adjusted issue price” of the exchange notes (or the adjusted issue price of the outstanding notes exchanged therefor) at the beginning of the accrual period multiplied by the yield to maturity of the exchange notes (determined on the basis of compounding at the close of each accrual period and appropriately adjusted to reflect the length of the accrual period), reduced by the amount of any stated interest allocable to such accrual period. The “adjusted issue price” of the exchange notes (or, the outstanding notes exchanged therefor) at the beginning of an accrual period generally will equal their issue price, increased by the aggregate amount of OID that has accrued on the exchange notes (including the aggregate amount of OID that has accrued on the outstanding notes exchanged therefor) in all prior accrual periods and decreased by the amount of any payments other than of stated interest. The “yield to maturity” is the discount rate that, when applied to all principal and interest payments under the exchange notes, produces a present value equal to the issue price. As explained above, we have treated all of the outstanding notes (that is, both the outstanding December notes and the outstanding February notes) as having the same amount of OID for United States federal income tax purposes, and we intend to treat all of the exchange notes as having the same amount of OID for United States federal income tax purposes. The amount of OID included in your gross income will increase your adjusted tax basis in the exchange notes. Under these rules, you will have to include increasingly greater amounts of OID in successive accrual periods. You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the consequences of, and accrual of, OID on the exchange notes.

Market Discount

If you purchase an exchange note (or if you purchased an outstanding note for which the exchange note was exchanged, as the case may be) for an amount (in the case of an outstanding February note, excluding any amount attributable to the pre-issuance accrued interest described above) that is less than its adjusted issue price as of the date of the purchase, the excess of the adjusted issue price over your purchase price will be treated as market discount. However, the market discount will be considered to be zero if it is less than1/4 of 1 percent of the principal amount of the exchange note multiplied by the number of complete years to maturity from the date you purchase the exchange note (or the date you purchased the outstanding note for which the exchange note was exchanged, as the case may be).

Under the market discount rules of the Internal Revenue Code, if you purchase an exchange note (or if you purchased an outstanding note for which the exchange note was exchanged, as the case may be) with market discount, you will generally be required to include any gain realized on the sale, exchange, retirement, redemption or other disposition of the exchange note as ordinary income (generally treated as interest income) to the extent of the market discount which accrued but was not previously included in your gross income. In addition, you may be required to defer, until the maturity of the exchange note or its earlier disposition in a taxable transaction, the deduction of all or a portion of the interest expense on any indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry the exchange note (or an outstanding note for which the exchange note was exchanged, as the case may be). In general, market discount will be considered to accrue ratably during the period from the date of the purchase of the exchange note (or the date you purchased the outstanding note for which the exchange note was exchanged, as the case may be) to the maturity date of the exchange note, unless you make an irrevocable election (on aninstrument-by-instrument basis) to accrue market discount under a constant yield method. However, you may elect to include market discount in income currently as it accrues (under either a ratable or constant yield method), in which case the rules described above regarding the treatment as ordinary income of gain upon the disposition of the exchange note and the deferral of interest deductions will not apply. Your election to include market discount in income currently, once made, applies to all market discount obligations acquired by you on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which the election applies, and may not be revoked without the consent of the Internal Revenue Service.

Acquisition Premium

If you purchase an exchange note (or if you purchased an outstanding note for which the exchange note was exchanged, as the case may be) for an amount (in the case of an outstanding February note, excluding any amount attributable to the pre-issuance accrued interest described above) that exceeds the exchange note’s adjusted issue price as of the date of the purchase and is less than or equal to the exchange note’s stated redemption price at maturity, you will be considered to have purchased the exchange note with acquisition premium. Under the acquisition premium rules, you are permitted to reduce your OID accruals on such exchange note by a fraction, the numerator of which is the excess of your adjusted tax basis in the exchange note immediately after its purchase over the exchange note’s adjusted issue price at the time of purchase (or in the case of an exchange note received in exchange for an outstanding note pursuant to the exchange, the excess of your adjusted tax basis in the outstanding note immediately after purchase over the outstanding note’s adjusted issue price at the time of purchase) and the denominator of which is the total amount of unaccrued OID remaining on the exchange note.

Bond Premium

If you purchase an exchange note (or if you purchased an outstanding note for which the exchange note was exchanged, as the case may be) for an amount (in the case of an outstanding February note, excluding any amount attributable to the pre-issuance accrued interest described above) in excess of the amount payable at maturity of the exchange note, you will be considered to have purchased the exchange note with bond premium equal to the excess of your purchase price over the amount payable at maturity (or on an earlier call date if it results in a smaller amortization premium), and you will not be required to include any OID in income. It may be possible for you to elect to amortize the premium using a constant yield method over the remaining term of the exchange note (or until an earlier call date, as applicable). The amortized amount of the premium for a taxable year generally will be treated first as a reduction of interest on the exchange note (or on the outstanding note for which the exchange note was exchanged, as the case may be) includible in gross income in such taxable year to the extent thereof, then as a deduction allowed in that taxable year to the extent of your prior interest inclusions on the exchange note (or on the outstanding note for which the exchange note was exchanged, as the case may be), and finally as a carryforward allowable against your future interest inclusions on the exchange note. If you make such an election, your tax basis in the exchange note will be reduced by the amount of the allowable amortization. If you do not elect to amortize bond premium, the premium will decrease the gain or increase the loss you would otherwise recognize on a disposition of your exchange note. Your election to amortize premium on a constant yield method will apply to all debt obligations held or subsequently acquired by you on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which the election applies. You may not revoke the election without the consent of the Internal Revenue Service. You should consult your own tax advisor before making this election.

228

Constant Yield Method Election

As an alternative to the above-described rules for including interest payments, OID and any market discount in income and amortizing any bond premium, you may elect to include in gross income all interest that accrues on your exchange notes, including stated interest, OID, any market discount (including any de minimis market discount), and any adjustments for bond premium, on the constant yield method. If you make such an election with respect to an exchange note with amortizable bond premium, you are deemed to have made the election to amortize bond premium currently with respect to all other debt instruments held or subsequently acquired by you. If you make such an election with respect to an exchange note with market discount, you are deemed to have made the election to include market discount currently in income on all debt instruments held or subsequently acquired by you. Particularly if you are on the cash method of accounting, a constant yield election may have the effect of causing you to include interest in income earlier than would be the case if no such election were made, and the election may not be revoked without the consent of the Internal Revenue Service. You should consult your own tax advisor before making this election.

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Exchange Notes

Upon the sale, redemption, exchange or other taxable disposition of exchange notes, you generally will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between:

•  the amount realized on the disposition (less any amount attributable to accrued interest, which will be taxable as ordinary interest income to the extent not previously included in gross income, in the manner described under “Certain Material United States Federal Tax Considerations— U.S. Holders — Stated Interest and Original Issue Discount”); and

•  your adjusted tax basis in the exchange notes.

In the absence of a constant yield election, your adjusted tax basis in an exchange note generally will be its cost (or in the case of an exchange note received in exchange for an outstanding note in the exchange offer, the cost of the outstanding note which should, in the case of an outstanding February note, exclude for this purpose the amount of any pre-issuance accrued interest paid by you upon acquisition of the note) increased by the amount of OID and any market discount on the exchange note (and in the case of an exchange note received in exchange for an outstanding note in the exchange offer, the outstanding note) previously included in your income and decreased by the amount of any previously amortized bond premium and the amount of any payment, other than a payment of stated interest, on the exchange note (and in the case of an exchange note received in exchange for an outstanding note in the exchange offer, the outstanding note). Your gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss. This capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if at the time of the disposition you have held the exchange note for more than one year (taking into account for this purpose, in the case of an exchange note received in exchange for an outstanding note in the exchange offer, the period of time you held such outstanding note). The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. If you are a non-corporate U.S. Holder, your long-term capital gain generally will be subject to tax at preferential rates.

Backup Withholding

In general, “backup withholding” (currently at a rate of 28 percent) may apply:

•  to any payments made to you of principal of and interest on your exchange note, and

•  to payment of the proceeds of a sale or other disposition of your exchange note,

if you are a non-corporate U.S. Holder and you fail to provide a correct taxpayer identification number or otherwise fail to comply with applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules or otherwise establish an exemption.

The backup withholding tax is not an additional tax and may be credited against your United States federal income tax liability, provided that correct information is timely provided to the Internal Revenue Service.

229

Non-U.S. Holders

The following summary applies to you if you are a beneficial owner of an outstanding note or an exchange note and you are neither a U.S. Holder (as defined above) nor a partnership (or an entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for United States federal tax purposes) (a“Non-U.S. Holder”).

United States Federal Withholding Tax

Under current United States federal income tax laws, and subject to the discussion below, United States federal withholding tax will not apply to payments by us or our paying agent (in its capacity as such) of principal of and interest on your exchange notes under the “portfolio interest” exception of the Internal Revenue Code, provided that in the case of interest:

•  you do not, directly or indirectly, actually or constructively, own ten percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock entitled to vote within the meaning of section 871(h)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury regulations thereunder;

•  you are not a controlled foreign corporation for United States federal income tax purposes that is related, directly or indirectly, to us through sufficient stock ownership (as provided in the Internal Revenue Code);

•  you are not a bank receiving interest described in section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code;

•  such interest is not effectively connected with your conduct of a United States trade or business; and

•  you provide a signed written statement, on an Internal Revenue ServiceForm W-8BEN (or other applicable form) which can reliably be related to you, certifying under penalties of perjury that you are not a United States person within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code and providing your name and address to:

(A) us or our paying agent; or

(B) a securities clearing organization, bank or other financial institution that holds customers’ securities in the ordinary course of its trade or business and holds your exchange notes on your behalf and that certifies to us or our paying agent under penalties of perjury that it, or the bank or financial institution between it and you, has received from you your signed, written statement and provides us or our paying agent with a copy of this statement.

The applicable Treasury regulations provide alternative methods for satisfying the certification requirement described above. In addition, under these Treasury regulations, special rules apply to pass-through entities and this certification requirement may also apply to beneficial owners of pass-through entities.

If you cannot satisfy the requirements of the “portfolio interest” exception described above, payments of interest made to you will be subject to 30 percent United States federal withholding tax unless you provide us or our paying agent with a properly executed (1) Internal Revenue ServiceForm W-8ECI (or other applicable form) stating that interest paid on your exchange notes is not subject to withholding tax because it is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States, or (2) Internal Revenue ServiceForm W-8BEN (or other applicable form) claiming an exemption from or reduction in this withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty.

United States Federal Income Tax

Except for the possible application of United States federal withholding tax (see “Certain Material United States Federal TaxConsiderations— Non-U.S. Holders — United States Federal Withholding Tax” above) and backup withholding tax (see “Certain Material United States Federal TaxConsiderations— Non-U.S. Holders— Backup Withholding and Information Reporting” below), you generally will not have to pay United States federal income tax on payments of principal of and interest on your exchange notes, or on any gain realized from (or

230

accrued interest treated as received in connection with) the sale, redemption, retirement at maturity or other taxable disposition of your exchange notes unless:

•  in the case of interest payments or disposition proceeds representing accrued interest, you cannot satisfy the requirements of the “portfolio interest” exception described above or claim a complete exemption from United States federal income tax on such interest under an applicable income tax treaty (and your United States federal income tax liability has not otherwise been fully satisfied through the United States federal withholding tax described above);

•  in the case of gain, you are an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the sale or other disposition of your exchange notes and specific other conditions are met (in which case, except as otherwise provided by an applicable income tax treaty, the gain, which may be offset by United States source capital losses, generally will be subject to a flat 30 percent United States federal income tax, even though you are not considered a resident alien under the Internal Revenue Code); or

•  the interest or gain is effectively connected with your conduct of a United States trade or business and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a United States “permanent establishment” maintained by you.

If you are engaged in a trade or business in the United States and interest or gain in respect of your exchange notes is effectively connected with the conduct of your trade or business (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a United States “permanent establishment” maintained by you), the interest or gain generally will be subject to United States federal income tax on a net basis at the regular graduated rates and in the manner applicable to a U.S. Holder (although the interest will be exempt from the withholding tax discussed under “Certain Material United States Federal TaxConsiderations— Non-U.S. Holders — United States Federal Withholding Tax” if you provide a properly executed Internal Revenue ServiceForm W-8ECI (or other applicable form) on or before any payment date to claim the exemption). In addition, if you are a foreign corporation, you may be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30 percent of your effectively connected earnings and profits for the taxable year, as adjusted for certain items, unless a lower rate applies to you under an applicable United States income tax treaty.

United States Federal Estate Tax

If you are an individual and are not a United States citizen or a resident of the United States (as specially defined for United States federal estate tax purposes) at the time of your death, your exchange notes generally will not be subject to the United States federal estate tax, unless, at the time of your death:

•  you directly or indirectly, actually or constructively, own ten percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock entitled to vote within the meaning of section 871(h)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury regulations thereunder; or

•  your interest on the exchange notes is effectively connected with your conduct of a United States trade or business.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Under current Treasury regulations, backup withholding and information reporting generally will not apply to payments made by us or our paying agent (in its capacity as such) to you if you have provided the required certification that you are aNon-U.S. Holder as described in “Certain Material United States Federal TaxConsiderations— Non-U.S. Holders — United States Federal Withholding Tax” above, and provided that neither we nor our paying agent has actual knowledge or reason to know that you are a U.S. Holder (as described in “Certain Material United States Federal Tax Considerations— U.S. Holders” above). However, we or our paying agent may be required to report to the IRS and you payments of interest on the exchange notes and the amount of tax, if any, withheld with respect to those payments. Copies of the information returns reporting such interest payments and any withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which you reside under the provisions of a treaty or agreement.

231

The gross proceeds from the disposition of your exchange notes may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax (currently at a rate of 28 percent). If you sell your exchange notes outside the United States through anon-U.S. office of anon-U.S. broker and the sales proceeds are paid to you outside the United States, then the U.S. backup withholding and information reporting requirements generally will not apply to that payment. However, U.S. information reporting, but not backup withholding, will apply to a payment of sales proceeds, even if that payment is made outside the United States, if you sell your exchange notes through anon-U.S. office of U.S. broker or a foreign broker with certain United States connections unless the broker has documentary evidence in its files that you are anon-U.S. person and certain other conditions are met or you otherwise establish an exemption. If you receive payments of the proceeds of a sale of your exchange notes to or through a U.S. office of a broker, the payment is subject to both U.S. backup withholding and information reporting unless you provide aForm W-8BEN certifying that you are anon-U.S. person or you otherwise establish an exemption, provided that the broker does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that you are not a U.S. person or the conditions of any other exemption are not, in fact, satisfied.

You should consult your own tax advisor regarding application of backup withholding in your particular circumstance and the availability of and procedure for obtaining an exemption from backup withholding under current Treasury regulations. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules from a payment to you will be allowed as a refund or credit against your United States federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.

232

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Based on interpretations by the staff of the SEC set forth in no-action letters issued to third parties, we believe that the exchange notes issued pursuant to the exchange offer in exchange for the outstanding notes may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by holders thereof, other than any holder which is (A) an “affiliate” of our company within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, (B) a broker-dealer who acquired notes directly from our company or (C) broker-dealers who acquired notes as a result of market-making or other trading activities, without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act provided that such exchange notes are acquired in the ordinary course of such holders’ business, and such holders are not engaged in, and do not intend to engage in, and have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution of such exchange notes. However, broker-dealers receiving the exchange notes in the exchange offer will be subject to a prospectus delivery requirement with respect to resales of such exchange notes. To date, the staff of the SEC has taken the position that these broker-dealers may fulfill their prospectus delivery requirements with respect to transactions involving an exchange of securities such as the exchange pursuant to the exchange offer, other than a resale of an unsold allotment from the sale of the outstanding notes to the initial purchasers thereof, with the prospectus contained in the exchange offer registration statement. Pursuant to the exchange and registration rights agreements, we have agreed to permit these broker-dealers to use this prospectus in connection with the resale of such exchange notes. We have agreed that, for a period of 90 days after the expiration date of the exchange offer, we will make this prospectus, and any amendment or supplement to this prospectus, available to, and promptly send additional copies of this prospectus, and any amendment or supplement to this prospectus, to, any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the letter of transmittal for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until          , all dealers effecting transactions in the exchange notes may be required to deliver a prospectus.

Each holder of the outstanding notes who wishes to exchange its outstanding notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer will be required to make certain representations to us as set forth in “The Exchange Offer.”

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for outstanding notes where such outstanding notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities.

We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of exchange notes by broker-dealers. Exchange notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the exchange offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in theover-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the exchange notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such exchange notes. Any broker-dealer that resells exchange notes that were received by it for its own account in the exchange offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such exchange notes may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any profit on any such resale of exchange notes and any commissions or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The letter of transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.

We have agreed to pay the expenses incident to the exchange offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the holders of the notes) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the holders of the exchange notes, including any broker-dealers, against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, as set forth in the exchange and registration rights agreements.

233

WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION

We and the guarantors have filed with the SEC a registration statement onForm S-4 under the Securities Act with respect to the exchange notes. As allowed by SEC rules, this prospectus, which is a part of the registration statement, omits certain information included in that registration statement and the exhibits thereto. For further information with respect to us and the exchange notes, we refer you to the registration statement, including all amendments, supplements, schedules and exhibits thereto.

We are not currently subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. However, under the indenture for the notes, we have agreed to furnish to holders of the notes (1) all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed the SEC onForms 10-Q and10-K if we were required to file such reports and (2) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC onForm 8-K if we were required to file such reports.

After consummation of the exchange offer, the indenture for the notes provides that, if we are no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, we will nonetheless continue to file the reports specified in the immediately preceding paragraph unless the SEC will not accept such a filing. The indenture for the notes also provides that McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation may comply with the reporting requirements of the indenture in lieu of us. In accordance therewith, McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation, and not McJunkin Red Man Corporation, will file reports and other information with the SEC.

In addition, we have agreed that, for so long as any notes remain outstanding, if at any time we are not required to file with the SEC the reports required by the preceding paragraphs, we will furnish to the holders and to securities analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

You may read and copy any document we file or furnish with the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, DC 20549. You may also obtain copies of the documents at prescribed rates by writing to the Public Reference Section of the SEC. Please call the SEC at1-800-SEC-0330 to obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. In addition, the SEC maintains an internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. You can review the registration statement, as well as our future SEC filings, by accessing the SEC’s Internet site athttp://www.sec.gov. You may also request copies of those documents, at no cost to you, by contacting us at the following address:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors

McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation and subsidiaries at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31. 2010

NOTE 1 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business Operations:  McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation is a holding company headquartered in Houston, Texas, with administrative offices in Charleston, West Virginia; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Calgary, Alberta, Canada; and Bradford, United Kingdom. We are a majority owned subsidiary of PVF Holdings LLC. Our wholly owned subsidiaries, McJunkin Red Man Corporation and its subsidiaries (“MRC”), are global distributors of pipe, valves, fittings and related products and services across each of the upstream (exploration, production and extraction of underground oil and gas), midstream (gathering and transmission of oil and gas, gas utilities, and the storage and distribution of oil and gas) and downstream (crude oil refining, petrochemical processing and general industrials) markets. We have branches in principal industrial, hydrocarbon producing and refining areas throughout the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia and Australasia. Our products are obtained from a broad range of suppliers.

Basis of Presentation:  PVF Holdings LLC (formerly known as McJ Holding LLC) was formed on November 20, 2006 by affiliates of the Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (“Goldman Sachs”) and certain shareholders of McJunkin Corporation (“McJunkin”) for the purposes of acquiring McJunkin on January 31, 2007. The affiliates of Goldman Sachs referred to in the previous sentence are GS Capital Partners V Fund, L.P., GS Capital Partners V Offshore Fund, L.P., GS Capital Partners V GmbH & Co. KG, and GS Capital Partners V Institutional, L.P. (collectively, the “GSCP V Funds”). In connection with the business combination transaction with Red Man Pipe & Supply Co. (“Red Man”) in October 2007, the GSCP V Funds and GS Capital Partners VI Fund, L.P., GS Capital Partners VI Offshore Fund, L.P., GS Capital Partners VI GmbH & Co. KG, and GS Capital Partners VI Parallel, L.P. (collectively, the “GSCP VI Funds,” and together with the GSCP V Funds, the “Goldman Sachs Funds”) and certain existing members of PVF Holdings LLC and certain shareholders of Red Man made cash and noncash equity contributions to PVF Holdings LLC in exchange for common units of PVF Holdings LLC. Management and control of all of the Goldman Sachs Funds is vested exclusively in their general partners and investment managers, which are affiliates of Goldman Sachs. The investment manager of certain of the Goldman Sachs Funds is Goldman, Sachs & Co., which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation and its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “the Company” or by such terms as “we,” “our” or “us”). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in our unconsolidated joint ventures, over which we exercise significant influence, but do not control, are accounted for by the equity method. Our unconsolidated joint ventures, along with our percentage of ownership of each, are: (a) TFCX Finland Oy (50%), (b) MRC Transmark Middle East FZCO (50%) and (c) Transmark DRW GmbH (50%). As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, our total investment in these entities was insignificant.

Use of Estimates:  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. We believe that our most significant estimates and assumptions are related to estimated losses on accounts receivable, estimated realizable value on excess and obsolete inventories, goodwill, intangibles, deferred taxes and self-insurance programs. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents:  We consider all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:  We evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for losses on receivables based upon periodic evaluation of accounts that may have a higher credit risk using information available about the customer and other relevant data. This formal analysis is inherently subjective and requires us to make significant estimates of factors affecting doubtful accounts, including customer specific information, current economic

F-7

McJUNKIN RED MAN HOLDING CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

conditions, volume, growth and composition of the account, and other factors such as financial statements, news reports and published credit ratings. The amount of the allowance for the remainder of the trade balance is not evaluated individually but is based upon historical loss experience.

Because this process is subjective and based on estimates, ultimate losses may differ from those estimates. Receivable balances are written off when we determine that the balance is uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance when received. The provision for losses on receivables is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Inventories:  Our inventories are generally valued at the lower of cost, principallylast-in, first-out method (LIFO) or market. We record an estimate each month, if necessary, for the expected annual effect of inflation and estimated year-end inventory volume. These estimates are adjusted to actual results determined at year-end. This practice excludes certain inventories, which are held outside of the United States, approximating $140 million and $163 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, which are valued at the lower of weighted-average cost or market.

Our inventory is substantially finished goods. The amount of general and administrative costs charged to inventory was immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008.

Allowances for excess and obsolete inventories are determined based on analyses comparing inventories on hand to sales trends. The allowance, which totaled $11 million and $8 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, is the amount deemed necessary to reduce the cost of the inventory to its estimated realizable value.

Assets Held for Sale:  Certain of our assets, consisting principally of certainavailable-for-sale securities and two parcels of real estate, were designated as noncore assets under the terms of the acquisition of McJunkin Corporation by certain affiliates of the Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. In accordance with the acquisition agreement, we classified these as assets held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet. A corresponding liability to shareholders (of our predecessor company, McJunkin Corporation) was recognized to reflect the obligation to the shareholders of record at the date of the acquisition. In the second quarter of 2010, we sold theavailable-for-sale securities. In September 2010, a portion of the proceeds from this sale, less selling expenses, other expenses and the related tax liability, was paid to the former shareholders of our predecessor company, net of administrative cost reimbursement retained by us. We paid the remainder, net of expected expenses, in December 2010. In the third quarter of 2010, we retained one of the parcels of real estate for our future use and paid the former shareholders the fair market value of the property, net of administrative cost reimbursement retained by us.

In January 2011, we sold our measurement fabrication business to a third party, while retaining the distribution portion of the business. The fabrication business was a noncore business of our North American segment and was not material to our consolidated financial statements; therefore, we have not reported this portion of the business as discontinued operations. As a result of this agreement, we recorded an $0.2 million loss on the sale, as a result of the estimated fair value being less than the carrying value. The assets that were sold in this transaction were not material to our consolidated balance sheet.

Debt Issuance Costs:  We defer costs directly related to obtaining financing and amortize them over the term of the indebtedness on a straight-line basis. The use of the straight-line method does not produce results that are materially different from those which would result from the use of the effective interest method. Such amounts are reflected in the consolidated income statement as a component of interest expense. Debt issuance costs are shown net of accumulated amortization of $14 million and $6 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Fixed Assets:  Land, buildings and equipment are stated on the basis of cost. For financial statement purposes, depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of such assets principally by the straight-line method; accelerated depreciation and cost recovery methods are used for income tax purposes. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful life of the improvements. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in income for the period. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets:  Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. We evaluate goodwill for impairment at two reporting units that mirror our two reportable segments (North America and International).

The goodwill impairment test compares the carrying value of the reporting unit that has the goodwill with the estimated fair value of that reporting unit. If the carrying value is more than the estimated fair value, we then calculate the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit from the estimated fair value of the reporting unit. Impairment losses are recognized to the extent that recorded goodwill exceeds implied goodwill. Our impairment methodology uses discounted cash flow and multiples of cash earnings valuation techniques, plus valuation comparisons to similar businesses. These valuation methods require us to make certain assumptions and estimates regarding future operating results, the extent and timing of future cash flows, working capital, sales prices, profitability, discount rates and growth trends. While we believe that such assumptions and estimates are reasonable, the actual results may differ materially from the projected results (see Note 6 for more information regarding goodwill).

Other intangible assets primarily include customer bases and noncompetition agreements resulting from business acquisitions. Other intangible assets are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. Amortization is provided using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, ranging from one to twenty years.

The carrying value of intangible assets is subject to an impairment test when events or circumstances indicate a possible impairment. When events or circumstances indicate a possible impairment, we assess recoverability from future operations using undiscounted cash flows derived from the lowest appropriate asset group. To the extent the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge would be recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the fair value, which is determined based on a discounted cash flow analysis. While we believe that assumptions and estimates utilized in the impairment analysis are reasonable, the actual results may differ materially from the projected results. These impairments are determined prior to performing our goodwill impairment test.

Derivatives and Hedging:  We utilize interest rate swaps to reduce our exposure to potential interest rate increases. Changes in the fair values of our derivative instruments are based upon independent market quotes. We record all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Prior to June 29, 2009, if a derivative was designated as a cash flow hedge, we measured the effectiveness of the hedge, or the degree that the gain (loss) for the hedging instrument offset the loss (gain) on the hedged item, at each reporting period. The effective portion of the gain (loss) on the derivative instrument, net of deferred taxes, was recognized in other comprehensive income as a component of equity and, subsequently, reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction affected earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value was recognized in earnings immediately. Derivatives that did not qualify for hedge treatment were recorded at fair value with gains (losses) recognized in earnings in the period of change. On June 29, 2009, we removed the designation of our swap as a cash flow hedge. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in earnings in the period of change; and the fair value that was previously included in other comprehensive income was amortized over the remaining life of the agreement or until the forecasted transaction expires. At December 31, 2009, we determined that the forecasted transaction was not going to occur (due to the fact that we terminated the interest rate swap agreement in January 2010), therefore, the fair value that remained in other comprehensive income was charged to interest expense in our consolidated statements of income.

We utilize foreign exchange forward contracts (exchange contracts) to manage our foreign exchange rate risks resulting from purchase commitments and sales orders. Changes in the fair values of our exchange contracts are based upon independent market quotes. We do not designate our exchange contracts as hedging instruments;

F-9

McJUNKIN RED MAN HOLDING CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

therefore, we record our exchange contracts on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, with the gains and losses recognized in earnings in the period of change.

Fair Value:  We measure certain of our assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions for inputs used in the valuation methodologies to measuring fair value:

Level 1:  Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2:  Significant observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3:  Significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability (including all assumptions about risk).

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets. We do not measure these assets at fair value on an ongoing basis; however, these assets are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment.

Our impairment methodology for goodwill and other intangible assets uses both (i) a discounted cash flow analysis requiring certain assumptions and estimates to be made regarding the extent and timing of future cash flows, discount rates and growth trends and (ii) valuation comparisons to a group of similar, publicly traded companies. As all of the assumptions employed to measure these assets and liabilities on a nonrecurring basis are based on management’s judgment using internal and external data, these fair value determinations are classified as Level 3. We have not elected to apply the fair value option to any of our eligible financial assets and liabilities.

Insurance:  We are self-insured for first party automobile coverage, product recall, ocean cargo shipments and portions of employee healthcare and asbestos claims. In addition, we maintain a nonmaterial deductible program as it relates to workers’ compensation, automobile liability, property and general liability claims including, but not limited to, product liability claims, which are secured by various letters of credit totaling $5 million. Our estimated liability and related expenses for claims are based in part upon estimates provided by insurance carriers, third-party administrators, and actuaries. Insurance reserves are deemed by us to be sufficient to cover outstanding claims, including those incurred but not reported as of the estimation date. Further, we maintain a commercially reasonable umbrella/excess policy that covers liabilities in excess of the primary limits.

Income Taxes:  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the tax rate expected to be in effect when the taxes will actually be paid or refunds received. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Each reporting period, we assess the likelihood that we will be able to recover our deferred tax assets. If recovery is not likely, we record a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset that we believe will not be recoverable. The ultimate recovery of our deferred tax asset is dependent on various factors and is subject to change.

The benefit of an uncertain tax position that meets the “probable recognition threshold” is recognized in the financial statements. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in

F-10

McJUNKIN RED MAN HOLDING CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

judgment occurs. We record interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions:  The functional currency of our foreign operations is the applicable local currency. The cumulative effects of translating the balance sheet accounts from the functional currency into the U.S. dollar at current exchange rates are included in accumulated other comprehensive income. The balance sheet accounts (with the exception of retained earnings) are translated using current exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Retained earnings are translated at historical exchange rates and revenue and expense accounts are translated using a weighted-average exchange rate during the year. Historically, gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions have been immaterial and are recognized in the consolidated statements of income within other, net.

Equity-Based Compensation:  Our equity-based compensation consists of (1) restricted common units and profit units of PVF Holdings LLC and (2) restricted stock and nonqualified stock options of our Company. The cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Our policy is to expense equity-based compensation using the fair-value of awards granted, modified or settled. Restricted common units, profit units and restricted stock are credited to equity as they are expensed over their vesting periods based on the then current market value of the shares vested.

The fair value of nonqualified stock options is measured on the grant date of the related equity instrument using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and is recognized as compensation expense over the applicable vesting period.

Revenue Recognition:  Sales to our principal customers are made pursuant to agreements that normally provide for transfer of legal title and risk upon shipment. We recognize revenue as products are shipped, title has transferred to the customer and the customer assumes the risks and rewards of ownership, and collectability is reasonably assured. Freight charges billed to customers are reflected in revenues. Return allowances, which are not material, are estimated using historical experience. Amounts received in advance are deferred and recognized as revenue when the products are shipped and title transfers.

Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from net sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Cost of Goods Sold:  Cost of goods sold includes the cost of inventory sold and related items, such as vendor rebates, inventory allowances, and shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight.

Earnings per Share:  Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, excluding any dilutive effects of unexercised stock options and unvested restricted stock. Diluted earnings per share are computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding including any dilutive effect of unexercised stock options and unvested restricted stock. The dilutive effect of unexercised stock options and unvested restricted stock is calculated under the treasury stock method.

Concentration of Credit Risk:  Most of our business activity is with customers in the energy and industrial sectors. In the normal course of business, we grant credit to these customers in the form of trade accounts receivable. These receivables could potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk; however, we minimize such risk by closely monitoring extensions of trade credit. We generally do not require collateral on trade receivables.

We maintain the majority of our cash and cash equivalents with several reputable financial institutions. These financial institutions are located in many different geographical regions with varying economic characteristics and risks. Deposits held with banks may exceed insurance limits. We believe the risk of loss associated with our cash equivalents to be remote.

We have a broad customer base doing business in all regions of the world. During 2010, 2009 and 2008, we did not have sales to any one customer in excess of 10% of gross sales, and at those respective year-ends no individual

customer balances exceeded 10% of gross accounts receivable. Accordingly, no significant concentration of credit risk is considered to exist.

We have a broad supplier base, sourcing our products in most regions of the world. During 2010, we had purchases from one vendor in excess of 10% of our gross purchases (11%), while during 2009 and 2008, we did not have any purchases from any one vendor in excess of 10% of our gross purchases, and at those respective year-ends no individual vendor balance exceeded 10% of gross accounts payable. Accordingly, no significant concentration is considered to exist.

Segment Reporting:  We operate as two reportable segments, one consisting of our North American operations and one consisting of our other International operations. Our North American segment consists of our operations in the United States and Canada and has operations in four geographical regions, which have similar economic characteristics, products and services, types of customers, distribution methods and regulatory environments in each region. Our International segment has operations in Europe, Asia and Australasia. These segments represent our global business of providing pipe, valves, fittings and related products and services to the energy and industrial sectors, across each of the upstream (exploration, production and extraction of underground oil and gas), midstream (gathering and transmission of oil and gas, gas utilities, and the storage and distribution of oil and gas) and downstream (crude oil refining and petrochemical processing) markets, through our distribution operations located throughout the world.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:  In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an amendment to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605,Revenue Recognition, related to the accounting for revenue in arrangements with multiple deliverables including how the arrangement consideration is allocated among delivered and undelivered items of the arrangement. Among the amendments, this standard eliminated the use of the residual method for allocating arrangement considerations and requires an entity to allocate the overall consideration to each deliverable based on an estimated selling price of each individual deliverable in the arrangement in the absence of having vendor-specific objective evidence or other third-party evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. This standard also provides further guidance on how to determine a separate unit of accounting in a multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement and expands the disclosure requirements about the judgments made in applying the estimated selling price method and how those judgments affect the timing or amount of revenue recognition. This standard will become effective on January 1, 2011. We do not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)No. 2010-06,Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, an amendment to ASC Topic 820,Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures. This amendment will require us to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers and present separate information for Level 3 activity pertaining to gross purchases, sales, issuances and settlements. This amendment is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the rollforward activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Our adoption of this amendment, pertaining to the Level 1 and Level 2 disclosures on January 1, 2010, did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We do not believe that the Level 3 amendment disclosures will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, FASB issued ASUNo. 2010-09,Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements, an amendment to ASC Topic 855,Subsequent Events, that removed the requirements for SEC registrants to disclose the date through which subsequent events were evaluated. There were no changes to the accounting for or disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. Our adoption of this amendment on January 1, 2010 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

McJUNKIN RED MAN HOLDING CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

In July 2010, FASB issued ASUNo. 2010-20,Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, which amended ASC Topic 310,Receivables. This amendment enhances the disclosure requirements regarding the nature of credit risk inherent in our portfolio of accounts receivable, how that risk is assessed in arriving at our allowance for doubtful accounts and the changes and reasons for those changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts. The adoption of this amendment did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, FASB issued ASUNo. 2010-29,Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations, which amended ASC Topic 805,Business Combinations. This ASU amended certain existing and added additional pro forma disclosure requirements. The standard will become effective on January 1, 2011. We do not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 — TRANSACTIONS

Acquisitions

On October 9, 2008, we acquired LaBarge Pipe & Steel Company (“LaBarge”) for $154.2 million. LaBarge was engaged in the sale and distribution of carbon steel pipe (predominately large diameter pipe) for use primarily in the North American energy infrastructure market. The purchase price has been allocated in the following table. Transaction costs capitalized in connection with the acquisition of LaBarge totaled $3.8 million and included $1.6 million paid to an affiliate of the Goldman Sachs Funds as reimbursement of their costs associated with due diligence and advisory services. On January 21, 2010, LaBarge was legally merged into MRC.

On October 30, 2009, we acquired Transmark Fcx Group BV (together with its subsidiaries, “Transmark”) for $147.9 million. Headquartered in Bradford, United Kingdom, Transmark is a global distributor of specialty valves and flow control equipment, with a network of 37 distribution and service facilities in 13 countries throughout Europe, Asia and Australasia. The purchase price has been allocated in the following table. In connection with this transaction, we expensed approximately $17.4 million in transaction costs, including $5.8 million paid to an affiliate of the Goldman Sachs Funds as reimbursement of their costs associated with due diligence and advisory services. These expenses are included within selling, general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of income. As a part of the acquisition, we renamed Transmark Fcx Group BV as MRC Transmark Group B.V. (“MRC Transmark”).

On May 28, 2010, we acquired The South Texas Supply Company, Inc. (“South Texas Supply”) for $3.9 million. South Texas operates two branches in southern Texas, within the Eagle Ford Shale region. The impact of this acquisition was not material to our consolidated financial statements.

On August 31, 2010, we acquired operations and assets from Dresser Oil Tools, Inc. (“Dresser”) for $9.3 million. Dresser operates five branches in North Dakota and Montana, within the Bakken Shale region. The impact of this acquisition was not material to our consolidated financial statements.

Less: Other inventory reserves		(10,962	)		(8,123	)
	$	765,367		$	871,653

During 2010 and 2009, our inventory quantities were reduced, resulting in a liquidation of a LIFO inventory layer that was carried at a higher cost prevailing from a prior year, as compared with current costs in the current year (a “LIFO decrement”). A LIFO decrement results in the erosion of layers created in earlier years and therefore a LIFO layer is not created for years that have decrements. In 2010, the effect of this LIFO decrement decreased cost of sales by approximately $11 million and in 2009, increased cost of sales by approximately $45 million.

During 2009, our earnings progressively decreased due to the weakening of the U.S. and global economies, the reductions in oil and natural gas prices, and the reductions in our customers’ expenditure programs (both new programs and recurring maintenance programs). These factors resulted in a reduced demand for our product; consequently, we revised our long-term projections, which in turn impacted the fair value of our business. As a result, we concluded that the carrying value of our reporting unit exceeded the fair value of our reporting unit and

thus, for the year ended December 31, 2009, we recorded a pretax impairment charge of $310 million. No impairment charges were recorded in any of the other periods presented.

Senior Secured Notes:  On December 21, 2009, our wholly owned subsidiary, MRC, issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of its 9.50% Senior Secured Notes (the “Notes”) maturing on December 15, 2016. On February 11, 2010, MRC issued an additional $50 million aggregate amount of the Notes. MRC received proceeds of $1.023 billion, resulting in an original issue discount (“OID”) of approximately $27 million, which will be accreted over the life of the Notes in interest expense in our consolidated statements of income. The Notes rank equally in right of payment with all of MRC’s existing and future senior indebtedness. We guarantee the Notes, along with our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. The Notes are secured by a senior lien on substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of MRC and its wholly owned domestic subsidiaries, except for the collateral securing the Asset-Based Revolving Credit Facility (“ABL”), for which the Notes are secured on a junior basis. Assets owned by our non-guarantor subsidiaries are not part of the collateral securing the Notes.

Under the terms of the indenture governing the Notes, MRC must offer to repurchase the Notes at a price equal to 101% of their outstanding principal in the event of a change in control as defined in the indenture. At any time prior to December 15, 2012, MRC may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at 109.50% plus accrued and unpaid interest, with all or a portion of the net cash proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity Offerings (as defined in the indenture governing the Notes), provided that at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding and the redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of such Qualified Equity Offering. Further, at any time prior to December 15, 2012, MRC may redeem all or part of the Notes, with 15 to 60 days notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus a make-whole premium defined in the indenture governing the Notes, and accrued and unpaid

interest to the date of redemption. On or after December 15, 2012, MRC may redeem all or part of the Notes, with 15 to 60 days notice, at the redemption prices set forth in the table below:

Year	Percentage
2012		107.125	%
2013		104.750	%
2014		102.375	%
2015 and thereafter		100.000	%

The indenture governing the Notes contains covenants that impose significant restrictions on MRC’s business. The restrictions that these covenants place on MRC and its restricted subsidiaries include limitations on its ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, issue certain preferred stock or disqualified capital stock, create liens, pay dividends or make other restricted payments, make certain payments on debt that is subordinated or secured on a basis junior to the Notes, make investments, sell assets, create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from restricted subsidiaries, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets, enter into transactions with our affiliates and designate its subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. We were in compliance with the covenants contained in our indenture as of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

MRC is required to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission notes having substantially identical terms as the Notes as part of an offer to exchange freely tradable exchange notes for MRC’s Notes. We are required to file an exchange offer registration statement within 470 days after the issue date of the Notes (“filing deadline”) and use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause the exchange offer registration statement to be declared effective within 110 days after the filing deadline (“effectiveness deadline”). The exchange offer is required to be completed within 30 business days of the effectiveness deadline. We may also be required to file a shelf registration statement in certain circumstances. If we fail to meet these deadlines, special interest will accrue and be payable with respect to the Notes.

In connection with the issuance of the Notes, we paid off our $575 million Term Loan Facility and $450 million Junior Term Loan Facility. These facilities bore interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, either (i) the greater of the prime rate and the federal funds rate effective rate plus 0.50%, plus, in either case, 2.25%; or (b) LIBOR plus 3.25% (Term Loan Facility) or LIBOR multiplied by the statutory reserve rate plus 3.25% (Junior Term Loan Facility). We were in compliance with the covenants contained in these facilities as of and during the periods prior to payoff. As a result of these payoffs, we wrote off approximately $14 million of debt issuance costs, which are included in the gain on early extinguishment of debt in our consolidated statements of income. In 2009, prior to the payoff, we purchased and retired $36 million of our Junior Term Loan Facility and recognized a gain on early extinguishment of $16 million ($10 million, net of deferred income taxes) in our consolidated statements of income.

Asset-Based Revolving Credit Facility:  MRC is the borrower under a $900 million Asset-Based Revolving Credit Facility (“ABL”). The ABL provides for the extension of both revolving loans and swingline loans and the issuance of letters of credit. The aggregate principal amount of revolving loans outstanding at any time under the ABL may not exceed $900 million, subject to adjustments based on changes in the borrowing base and less the sum of all letters of credit outstanding and the aggregate principal amount of swingline loans outstanding. There is a $60 millionsub-limit on swingline loans and the total letters of credit outstanding at any time may not exceed $60 million.

Availability under the $900 million ABL is subject to a borrowing base. The borrowing base is equal to 85% of the sum of eligible accounts receivable and the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory, subject to customary reserves and eligibility criteria.

F-19

McJUNKIN RED MAN HOLDING CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Borrowings under the ABL bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, either (i) the greater of the prime rate as quoted inThe Wall Street Journaland the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, plus in either case (a) 2.00% if MRC’s consolidated total debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00, (b) 1.75% if such ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00 but less than 2.75 to 1.00, or (c) 1.50% if such ratio is less than 2.00 to 1.00; or (ii) LIBOR plus (a) 3.00% if the borrower’s consolidated total debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00, (b) 2.75% if such ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00 but less than 2.75 to 1.00, or (c) 2.50% if such ratio is less than 2.00 to 1.00. Interest on swingline lines is calculated on the basis of the rate described in (i) of the preceding sentence.

In addition, MRC is required to pay a commitment fee with respect to unutilized commitments at a rate per annum equal to (i) 0.50% if our consolidated total debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00 and (ii) 0.375% if such ratio is less than 2.75 to 1.00. MRC is also required to pay customary letter of credit fees and agency fees.

The ABL provides that MRC has the right at any time to request incremental commitments, but the lenders are under no obligation to provide any such additional commitments. The increase in facility commitments may not exceed the sum of (i) $150 million, plus (ii) only after the entire $150 million is drawn, an amount such that on a pro forma basis, after giving effect to the new facility commitments and certain other specified transactions, the secured leverage ratio will be no greater than 4.75 to 1.00. If MRC were to request any such additional commitments and the existing lenders or new lenders were to agree to provide such commitments, the ABL size could be increased as described above, but our ability to borrow would still be limited by the amount of the borrowing base.

If at any time the aggregate amount of outstanding loans, unreimbursed letter of credit drawings and undrawn letters of credit under the ABL exceeds the lesser of (i) the total revolving credit commitments or (ii) the borrowing base, MRC will be required to repay outstanding loans or cash collateralize letters of credit in an aggregate amount equal to such excess, with no reduction of the commitment amount. If the amount available under the ABL is less than 7% of total revolving credit commitments, or an event of default pursuant to certain provisions of the credit agreement has occurred, MRC would then be required to deposit daily in a collection account managed by the agent under the ABL. MRC may voluntarily reduce the unutilized portion of the commitment amount and repay outstanding loans at any time without premium or penalty other than customary “breakage” costs with respect to LIBOR loans. There is no scheduled amortization under the ABL; the principal amount of the loans outstanding is due and payable in full on October 31, 2013.

All obligations under the ABL are guaranteed by MRC’s existing and future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. All obligations under the ABL are secured, subject to certain significant exceptions, by substantially all of MRC’s assets, including:

•  A first-priority security interest in personal property consisting of inventory and accounts receivable;

•  A second-priority pledge of certain of the capital stock held by us or any subsidiary guarantor; and

•  A second-priority security interest in, and mortgages on, substantially all of our other tangible and intangible assets and of each subsidiary guarantor.

The ABL contains customary covenants which restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the ability of MRC and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, create liens on assets, engage in mergers, consolidations or sales of assets, dispose of subsidiary interests, make investments, loans or advances, pay dividends, make payments with respect to subordinated indebtedness, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, change the business conducted by MRC and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, and enter into agreements that restrict subsidiary dividends or limit the ability of MRC and its subsidiaries to create or keep liens for the benefit of the lenders with respect to our obligations under the facility.

F-20

McJUNKIN RED MAN HOLDING CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

The facility requires that we continue to maintain interest rate swap, cap and hedge agreements for the purpose of ensuring that no less than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of total indebtedness of MRC and its subsidiaries outstanding is either subject to such interest rate agreements or bears interest at a fixed rate.

Although the credit agreement governing the ABL does not require MRC to comply with any financial ratio maintenance covenants, if less than 7% of the then outstanding credit commitments were available to be borrowed under the ABL at any time, MRC would not be permitted to borrow any additional amounts unless its pro forma ratio of consolidated adjusted EBITDA to consolidated Fixed Charges (as such terms are defined in the credit agreement) were at least 1.0 to 1.0.

The credit agreement also contains customary affirmative covenants and events of default. We were in compliance with the covenants contained in our ABL as of and during the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008.

Midfield Revolving Credit Facility:  Midfield Supply ULC (“Midfield”), our Canadian subsidiary, has a Canadian dollar revolving credit facility (“Midfield Revolver”). On October 20, 2010, we increased the maximum limit of the facility to CAD $80 million (USD $80 million as of December 31, 2010) from CAD $60 million (USD $60 million), subject to adjustments based on the borrowing base and less the aggregate letters of credit outstanding under the facility. Letters of credit may be issued under the facility, subject to certain conditions, including a CAD $10 million (USD $10 million)sub-limit.

Borrowings through December 31, 2009 bore interest at either (i) the Canadian prime rate plus 2.00% or (ii) the greater of 2.00% and the rate of interest per annum equal to the rates applicable to Canadian Dollar Bankers’ Acceptances having a comparable term as the proposed loan displayed on the “CDOR Page” of Reuter Monitor Money Rates Services (the “BA Equivalent Rate”), plus 3.50%. After December 31, 2009, the borrowings will bear interest at a rate equal to either (i) the Canadian prime rate, plus (a) 2.25% if the “average daily availability” (as defined in the loan and security agreement for the facility) for the previous fiscal quarter was less than CAD $30 million (USD $30 million), (b) 2.00% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to CAD $30 million (USD $30 million) but less than CAD $60 million (USD $60 million), or (c) 1.75% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to CAD $60 million (USD $60 million), or, at our option, (ii) the BA Equivalent Rate plus (a) 3.75% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was less than CAD $30 million (USD $30 million), (b) 3.50% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to CAD $30 million (USD $30 million) but less than CAD $60 million (USD $60 million), or (c) 3.25% if the average daily availability for the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to CAD $60 million (USD $60 million).

The Midfield Revolver is secured by substantially all of Midfield’s and its subsidiary guarantors’ personal property assets including accounts receivable, chattel paper, bank accounts, general intangibles, inventory, investment property, cash and insurance proceeds. The balance of the Revolver is due at its maturity date, November 18, 2012.

The Midfield Revolver required Midfield to maintain adjusted EBITDA of (i) CAD $1.5 million (USD $1.4 million) for the two fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2009, (ii) CAD $4.8 million (USD $4.5 million) for the three fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2010 and (iii) CAD $3.7 million (USD $3.5 million) for the four fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2010. The facility also requires Midfield, beginning with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2011, to maintain a leverage ratio of no greater than 3.50 to 1.00 and, beginning with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2010, to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.15 to 1.00. The facility prohibits Midfield and its subsidiaries from making capital expenditures in excess of CAD $10 million (USD $10 million) in the aggregate during any fiscal year, subject to exceptions for certain expenditures and provided that if the actual amount of capital expenditures made in any fiscal year is less than the amount permitted to be made in such fiscal year, up to CAD $0.25 million (USD $0.25 million) of such excess may be carried forward and used to make capital expenditures in the succeeding fiscal year.

Midfield Term Loan Facility:  Midfield also has a CAD $15 million (USD $15 million as of December 31, 2010) term loan facility. The facility provides for revolving loans until July 31, 2011, after which the revolving loans outstanding under the facility convert to term loans that mature on July 31, 2012. The facility is secured by substantially all of Midfield’s and its subsidiary guarantors’ real property and equipment.

The facility provides for two types of funding, (i) prime-based loansand/or (ii) guaranteed notes. The interest rates for the facility vary based on the type of funding: (i) the prime-based loans bear interest at the Canadian prime rate, plus 3.25% and (ii) the guaranteed notes bear interest at the Canadian Dealer Offered Rate, plus 4.50%.

The Midfield term loan facility contains similar covenants as the Midfield Revolver, as discussed above.

On September 10, 2010, we amended our Midfield Revolver to defer compliance with a leverage ratio covenant until March 31, 2011 and to modify the calculation of a fixed charge covenant ratio for the compliance period ended September 30, 2010. On September 16, 2010, we amended our Midfield term loan facility to defer compliance with a leverage covenant until March 31, 2011 and to defer compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio until December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2010, we were in compliance with these covenants as amended.

Transmark Revolving Credit Facility:  On September 17, 2010, MRC Transmark, our international subsidiary, refinanced its revolving credit facility (“MRC Transmark Revolver”). This facility provides for borrowings up to €60 million (USD $80 million), with a €20 million (USD $27 million)sub-limit on letters of credit. The facility matures on September 17, 2013.

The facility will be reduced by €10 million (USD $13 million) over its term, as follows: €0.5 million (USD $0.7 million) per quarter starting in the fourth quarter of 2010 through the third quarter of 2012, and then by €1.5 million (USD $2.0 million) per quarter, starting in the fourth quarter of 2012 through the third quarter of 2013.

The facility bears interest at LIBOR or, in relation to any loan in Euros, EURIBOR, plus an applicable margin. The margin varies based on MRC Transmark’s leverage as described in the following table:

MRC Transmark’s Leverage Ratio	Margin
Less than or equal to 0.75:1		1.50	%
Greater than 0.75:1, but less than or equal to 1.00:1		1.75	%
Greater than 1.00:1, but less than or equal to 1.50:1		2.00	%
Greater than 1.50:1, but less than or equal to 2.00:1		2.25	%
Greater than 2.00:1		2.50	%

The facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of MRC Transmark and its wholly owned subsidiaries.

The facility also requires MRC Transmark to maintain:  (i) an interest coverage ratio not less than 3.50:1 and (ii) a leverage ratio not to exceed 2.50:1. We were in compliance with these covenants as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010.

In connection with the refinancing, MRC Transmark’s existing revolving credit facility and term loan facility were paid off. The previous facilities bore interest at a rate, at our option, of either (i) EURIBOR plus the margin, or, in the case of any currency other than the Euro, (ii) LIBOR plus the margin, in each case for a period of one, three or six months. The margin was based on leverage and ranged from 1.50% to 2.50% (revolving credit facility) and 2.00% to 3.00% (term loan facility). We were in compliance with the covenants contained in these facilities as of and for the periods prior to payoff. Also, in conjunction with the refinancing, we paid approximately $0.2 million to terminate interest rate swap agreements.

Transmark Factoring Facility:  MRC Transmark also maintains a factoring facility for one of its wholly owned subsidiaries. The subsidiary factors all invoices for certain approved customers in transactions through which the lender will advance the face value of the invoices (subject to a 10% withholding deposit). The lender receives a commission of 0.18%. The interest rate on this facility is EURIBOR plus 0.45%.

NOTE 8 — DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We use derivative financial instruments to help manage our exposure to interest rate risk and fluctuations in foreign currencies.

On December 3, 2007, we entered into a floating to fixed interest rate swap contract, effective December 31, 2007, for a notional amount of $700 million to limit exposure to interest rate increases related to a portion of our floating rate indebtedness. Under the terms of this contract, we paid interest at a fixed rate of approximately 3.91% and received3-month LIBOR variable interest rate payments monthly. The interest rate swap contract was set to terminate after three years. As of the effective date of the swap contracts, we designated the interest rate swap as a

cash flow hedge and the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative hedging instrument was reported in other comprehensive income, while the ineffective portion was recorded in current earnings. During the fourth quarter of 2008, one of the underlying participants in our interest rate swap contract declared bankruptcy, resulting in a loss of hedge accounting for that portion of the swap. As a result, the change in the fair value of that portion of the interest rate swap contract ($175 million) was recorded in current earnings in 2008. Also, the portion of the swap that was previously included in other comprehensive income was being amortized over the remaining life of the agreement. On June 29, 2009, we removed the designation of the swap as a cash flow hedge. As a result, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap contract were recorded in earnings. The remaining portion of the swap, that was previously included in other comprehensive income, was being amortized over the remaining life of the contract. On January 22, 2010, we paid $25 million to terminate this interest rate swap contract.

Effective March 31, 2009, we entered into a freestanding, $500 million interest rate swap contract to pay interest at a fixed rate of approximately 1.77% and receive1-month LIBOR variable interest rate payments monthly through March 31, 2012. We also have other interest rate swap contracts and foreign exchange forward contracts, which are not material. All of our derivative instruments are freestanding and, accordingly, changes in their fair market value are recorded in earnings.

The valuation allowance is based on our estimate that the recovery of certain deferred tax assets will not be likely. At December 31, 2010, the valuation allowance related to net operating loss carryforwards in certain foreign jurisdictions.

In the United States, we had approximately $0.4 million of federal and $104 million of state net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2010, which will expire in future years through 2030. In certainnon-U.S. jurisdictions, we had $13 million of net operating loss carryforwards, in which $11 million have no expiration and $2 million will expire in future years through 2015.

Undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries were approximately $126 million and $105 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. These earnings are expected to be indefinitely reinvested outside of the United States and, therefore, no provision for United States federal or state income taxes has been made. If we were to distribute these earnings, they would be taxed at approximately the U.S. statutory rate. Foreign tax credits may be available to reduce the resulting United States tax liability.

Income tax returns are filed in tax jurisdictions around the world. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination for all years through 2006 and the statute of limitations at our international locations is generally six to seven years.

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, our unrecognized tax benefits were immaterial to our consolidated financial statements.

Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plans:  Under the terms of the 2007 Stock Option Plan, options may not be granted at prices less than their fair market value on the date of the grant, nor for a term exceeding ten years. Vesting generally occurs in one-third increments on the third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the date specified in the employees’ respective option agreements, subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances set forth in the option agreements. We expense the fair value of the stock option grants on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. A Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of the stock options.

Under the terms of the restricted stock plan, restricted stock may be granted at the direction of the Board of Directors and vesting generally occurs in one-fourth increments on the second, third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the date specified in the employees’ respective restricted stock agreements, subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances set forth in the restricted stock agreements. We expense the fair value of the restricted stock grants on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

At December 31, 2010, all of the restricted common units were either vested or forfeited. Prior to full vesting or forfeiture, the expense was being recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

Defined Contribution Employee Benefit Plans:  Employees may participate in the McJunkin Red Man Retirement Plan, under which any employee who has completed at least six months of service may elect to defer a percentage of their base earnings, pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, we make matching contributions with respect to participant contributions. Effective January 1, 2009, the six months of service requirement was eliminated and employees may immediately make a deferral election upon hire. The McJunkin Red Man Retirement Plan also features a discretionary profit-sharing component. This provides for annual employer contributions, generally based upon a formula related primarily to earnings, limited to 15% of the eligible compensation paid to all eligible employees. Employees must have at least six months of service to receive a profit-sharing contribution.

Eligible employees of Midfield Supply ULC located in Canada participate in a Registered Retirement Savings Plan after three months of service. Elective contributions are made on anemployee-by-employee basis.

Valuation:  We use the corridor approach in the valuation of our defined benefit plans. The corridor approach defers all actuarial gains and losses resulting from variances between actual results and economic estimates or actuarial assumptions. These unrecognized gains and losses are amortized when the net gains and losses exceed 10% of the greater of the market-related value of plan assets or the projected benefit obligation at the beginning of the year. The amount in excess of the corridor is amortized over the average remaining service period to retirement date for active plan participants or, for retired participants, the average remaining life expectancy.

The following table sets forth the principal weighted-average assumptions used to determine benefit obligation and benefit costs:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2010		2009
Benefit obligation:
Discount rate		5.00%		5.38%
Rate of compensation increase		2.00%		2.00%
Benefit cost:
Discount rate		5.00%		5.38%
Rate of compensation increase		2.00%		2.00%
Expected return on plan assets		5.55%		5.93%

We determine our discount rates in the Euro zone using the iBoxx Euro Corporate AA Bond indices, with appropriate adjustments for the duration of the plan obligations.

The expected rate of return is assessed annually and is based on long-term relationships among major asset classes and the level of incremental returns that can be earned by investment management strategies. Equity returns are based on estimates of long-term inflation rates, real rates of return, fixed income premiums over cash and equity risk premiums. Fixed income returns are based on maturity, long-term inflation, real rates of return and credit spreads. Insurance contract returns are based upon the average fixed return on contracts and the historical supplemental profit sharing of the insurers.

Plan Assets:  The investment objective for the plans are to earn a long-term expected rate of return, net of investment fees and transaction costs, to satisfy the benefit obligations of the plan, while at the same time maintaining sufficient liquidity to pay benefit obligations and expenses and meet any other cash needs, in theshort-to-medium term.

The following table sets forth the weighted-average target asset allocations for our pension plans:

	2010		2009
Fixed income securities		73%		76%
Equity securities		22%		19%
Insurance contracts		5%		5%
Total		100%		100%

Our investment policies and strategies for the pension benefit plans do not use target allocations for the individual asset categories. Our goals are to maximize returns subject to specific risk management policies. We address diversification by the use of investments in domestic and international fixed income securities and domestic and international equity securities. These investments are readily marketable and can be sold to fund benefit obligations as they become payable.

Our defined benefit plan assets are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and include the following items:

Cash and cash equivalents:  Foreign and domestic currencies, as well as short-term securities, are valued at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value.

Corporate stock and fixed income:  Valued at the closing price reported on the active market in which the individual securities are traded. Automated quotes are provided by multiple pricing services and validated by the plan custodian. These securities are traded on exchanges, as well as in theover-the-counter market.

Insurance contracts:  Valued at contributions made, plus earnings, less participant withdrawals and administrative expenses, which approximates fair value.

The financial objectives of the qualified pension plans are estimated in conjunction with a comprehensive review of each plan’s liability structure. Our asset allocation policy is based on detailed asset/liability analyses. In developing investment policy and financial goals, consideration is given to each plan’s demographics, the returns and risks associated with alternative investment strategies and the current and projected cash, expense and funding ratios of each plan. Investment policies must also comply with local statutory requirements as determined by each country. We have adopted a long-term investment horizon such that the risk and duration of investment losses are weighed against the long-term potential for appreciation of assets. Although there cannot be complete assurance that these objectives will be realized, it is believed that the likelihood for their realization is reasonably high, based upon the asset allocation chosen and the historical and expected performance of the asset classes utilized by the plans. The intent is for investments to be broadly diversified across asset classes, investment styles, market sectors, investment managers, developed and emerging markets and securities in order to moderate portfolio volatility and risk. Investments may be in separate accounts, commingled trusts, mutual funds and other pooled asset portfolios provided they all conform to fiduciary standards.

External investment managers are hired to manage pension assets. Over the long-term, the investment portfolio is expected to earn returns that exceed a composite of market indices that are weighted to match each plan’s target asset allocation. The portfolio return should also (over the long-term) meet or exceed the return used for actuarial calculations in order to meet the future needs of the plan.

We expect to contribute approximately $0.7 million to our defined benefit pension plans in 2011.

The table below reflects pension benefits expected to be paid from the plan assets for the next ten years (in thousands). The expected benefits are based on the same assumptions used to measure our benefit obligation at December 31, 2010 and include estimated future employee service.

We used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.

Assets Held for Sale:  Included in assets held for sale at December 31, 2009 were certain investments held for sale that were reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs. The fair value of these investments held for sale was determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges. We sold these investments in June 2010.

Interest Rate Contracts:  Interest rate contracts are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. We obtain dealer quotations to value our interest rate swap agreements. These quotations rely on observable market inputs such as yield curves and other market-based factors.

Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts:  Foreign exchange forward contracts are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs, as the fair value is based on broker quotes for the same or similar derivative instruments.

Litigation

We are involved in various legal proceedings and claims, both as a plaintiff and a defendant, which arise in the ordinary course of business.

These legal proceedings include claims where we are named as a defendant in lawsuits brought against a large number of entities by individuals seeking damages for injuries allegedly caused by certain products containing asbestos. As of December 31, 2010, we are a defendant in lawsuits involving approximately 940 such claims. Each claim involves allegations of exposure to asbestos-containing materials by a single individual or an individual, his or her spouseand/or family members. The complaints typically name many other defendants. In a majority of these lawsuits, little or no information is known regarding the nature of the plaintiffs’ alleged injuries or their connection with the products distributed by us. Through December 31, 2010, lawsuits involving over 11,700 claims have been brought against us with the majority being settled, dismissed or otherwise resolved. In total, since the first asbestos claim brought against us through December 31, 2010, approximately $1.2 million has been paid to asbestos claimants in connection with settlements of claims against us without regard to insurance recoveries.

With the assistance of accounting and financial consultants and our asbestos litigation counsel, we conducted analyses of asbestos-related litigation in order to estimate the adequacy of the reserve for pending and probable asbestos-related claims. These analyses consist of separately estimating our reserve with respect to pending claims (both those scheduled for trial and those for which a trial date had not been scheduled), mass filings (including lawsuits brought in West Virginia each involving many — in some cases over a hundred — plaintiffs, which include little information regarding the nature of each plaintiff’s claim and historically have rarely resulted in any payments to plaintiffs) and probable future claims. A key element of the analysis is categorizing our claims by the type of disease alleged by the plaintiffs and developing “benchmark” estimated settlement values for each claim category based on our historical settlement experience. These estimated settlement values are applied to each of our pending individual claims. With respect to pending claims where the disease type is unknown, the outcome is projected based on the historic ratio of disease types among filed claims (or “disease mix”) and dismissal rate. The reserve with respect to mass filings is estimated by determining the number of individual plaintiffs included in the mass filings likely to have claims resulting in settlements based on our historical experience with mass filings. Finally, probable claims expected to be asserted against us over the next fifteen years are estimated based on public health estimates of future incidences of certain asbestos-related diseases in the general U.S. population. Estimated

McJUNKIN RED MAN HOLDING CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

settlement values are applied to those projected claims. Our annual assessment, dated September 30, 2010, projected our payments to asbestos claimants over the next fifteen years are estimated to range from $5 million to $10 million. Given these estimates and existing insurance coverage that historically has been available to cover substantial portions of our past payments to claimants and defense costs, we believe that our current accruals and associated estimates relating to pending and probable asbestos-related litigation likely to be asserted over the next fifteen years are currently adequate. Our belief that our accruals and associated estimates are currently adequate, however, relies on a number of significant assumptions, including:

•  That our future settlement payments, disease mix and dismissal rates will be materially consistent with historic experience;

•  That future incidences of asbestos-related diseases in the U.S. will be materially consistent with current public health estimates;

•  That the rates at which future asbestos-related mesothelioma incidences result in compensable claims filings against us will be materially consistent with its historic experience;

•  That insurance recoveries for settlement payments and defense costs will be materially consistent with historic experience;

•  That legal standards (and the interpretation of these standards) applicable to asbestos litigation will not change in material respects;

•  That there are no materially negative developments in the claims pending against us; and

•  That key co-defendants in current and future claims remain solvent.

If any of these assumptions prove to be materially different in light of future developments, liabilities related to asbestos-related litigation may be materially different than amounts accruedand/or estimated. Further, while we anticipate that additional claims will be filed in the future, we are unable to predict with any certainty the number, timing and magnitude of such future claims.

On July 30, 2010, an action was brought against the Company in Delaware Chancery Court by a former shareholder of our predecessor, McJunkin Corporation, on his own behalf and as trustee for a trust, alleging the Company has not fully complied with a contractual obligation to divest of certain noncore assets contained in the December 2006 merger agreement and seeking damages and equitable relief. We have also received written notice from other former shareholders who similarly claim the Company has not fully complied with that contractual obligation. We believe that this action, and the related claim of other shareholders, is without merit and we intend to vigorously defend ourselves against the allegations. On September 28, 2010, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the action in its entirety. On February 11, 2011, the Court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the claims for equitable relief with prejudice, but denied the motion to dismiss the contractual claims. The Company submitted its response to the remaining claims in March 2011.

There is a possibility that resolution of certain legal contingencies for which there are no liabilities recorded could result in a loss. Management is not able to estimate the amount of such loss, if any. However, in our opinion, after consultation with counsel, the ultimate resolution of all pending matters is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position, although it is possible that such resolutions could have a material adverse impact on results of operations in the period of resolution.

Customer Contracts

We have contracts and agreements with many of our customers that dictate certain terms of our sales arrangements (pricing, deliverables, etc.). While we make every effort to abide by the terms of these contracts, certain provisions are complex and often subject to varying interpretations. Under the terms of these contracts, our

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

customers have the right to audit our adherence to the contract terms. Historically, any settlements that have resulted from these customer audits have been immaterial to our consolidated financial statements.

Letters of Credit

Our letters of credit outstanding at December 31, 2010 approximated $16 million.

Bank Guarantees

Certain of our international subsidiaries have trade guarantees given by bankers on their behalf. The amount of these guarantees at December 31, 2010 was approximately €6 million (USD $8 million).

Purchase Commitments

We have purchase obligations consisting primarily of inventory purchases made in the normal course of business to meet operating needs. While our vendors often allow us to cancel these purchase orders without penalty, in certain cases, cancellations may subject us to cancellation fees or penalties depending on the terms of the contract.

Warranty Claims

We are involved from time to time in various warranty claims, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Historically, any settlements that have resulted from these warranty claims have been immaterial to our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 16 — GUARANTOR AND NON-GUARANTOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As described in Note 7, we, along with our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries, guarantee the senior secured notes due December 15, 2016.

The following condensed financial information illustrates the composition of the combined guarantor subsidiaries (in millions). The columns in the following tables reflect the status of our subsidiaries in each respective period.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 20.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Delaware

McJunkin Red Man Corporation (the “Company”), McJunkin Nigeria Limited, McJunkin-Puerto Rico Corporation, McJunkin Red Man Development Corporation, McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation, McJunkin-West Africa Corporation and MRC Management Company are Delaware corporations. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DGCL, provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with specified actions, suits and proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than action by or in the right of the corporation — a “derivative action”), if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful.

A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement, or otherwise.

The DGCL further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify him under Section 145.

The bylaws of the Company and McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation provide for the indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. The bylaws of McJunkin Nigeria Limited provide for indemnification of directors and officers for acts in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to criminal matters, for which such person did not have reasonable cause to believe such conduct was unlawful. The bylaws of McJunkin-Puerto Rico Corporation, McJunkin Red Man Development Corporation and McJunkin-West Africa Corporation provide that the corporation has the power to indemnify of directors and officers for acts in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to criminal matters, for which such person did not have reasonable cause to believe such conduct was unlawful. The bylaws of MRC Management Company provide for indemnification of directors and officers in accordance with the provisions of Section 145 of the DGCL. The certificates of incorporation of the Company and McJunkin Red Man Holding Corporation provide that a director shall have no personal liability for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

West Virginia

Greenbrier Petroleum Corporation, Milton Oil & Gas Company and Ruffner Realty Company are West Virginia corporations. The West Virginia Business Corporation Act (“WVBCA”) empowers a corporation to indemnify an individual made a party to a proceeding because he is or was a director against liability incurred in the proceeding if: (1)(A) he conducted himself in good faith; and (B) he reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct in his official capacity with the corporation, that his conduct was in its best interests; and (ii) in all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to its best interests; and (C) in the case of any criminal proceeding, he had no

II-1

reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; or (2) he engaged in conduct for which broader indemnification has been made permissible or obligatory under a provision of the articles of incorporation. A corporation may not indemnify a director (1) in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, except for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding; or (2) in connection with any other proceeding with respect to conduct for which he was adjudged liable on the basis that he received financial benefit to which he was not entitled, whether or not involving action in his official capacity. A corporation must indemnify a director who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he was a party because he is or was a director of the corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with the proceeding. Under the WVBCA, a corporation may pay for or reimburse the reasonable expenses incurred by a director who is a party to a proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding if: (1) the director furnishes the corporation a written affirmation of his good faith belief that he has met the relevant standard of conduct; and (2) the director furnishes the corporation a written undertaking to repay the advance if the director is not entitled to mandatory indemnification under the WVBCA and it is ultimately determined that he did not meet the relevant standard of conduct. A corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to an officer of the corporation to the same extent as to a director. A corporation may also purchase and maintain on behalf of a director or officer of the corporation insurance against liabilities incurred in such capacities, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against the same liability under the WVBCA.

The bylaws of Greenbrier Petroleum Corporation provide for indemnification of directors and officers for acts in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to criminal matters, for which such person did not have reasonable cause to believe such conduct was unlawful. The bylaws of Milton Oil & Gas Company and Ruffner Realty Company provide for indemnification of directors and officers except in relation to matters as to which such person is adjudged to be liable for such person’s own negligence or misconduct in the performance of such person’s duties.

New York

Midway-Tristate Corporation is a New York corporation. Section 722(a) of the New York Business Corporation Law (“NYBCL”) provides that a corporation may indemnify any officer or director made, or threatened to be made, a party to an action or proceeding (other than one by or in the right of the corporation to procure judgment in its favor), whether civil or criminal, including an action by or in the right of any other corporation, or other enterprise, which any director or officer of the corporation served in any capacity at the request of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he was a director or officer of the corporation, or served such other corporation or other enterprise in any capacity, against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees actually and necessarily incurred as a result of such action or proceeding, or any appeal therein, if such director or officer acted, in good faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in, or, in the case of service for any other corporation or other enterprise, not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, in criminal actions or proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

Section 722(c) of the NYBCL provides that a corporation may indemnify any officer or director made, or threatened to be made, a party to an action by or in the right of the corporation to procure judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer of any other corporation of any type or kind, or other enterprise, against amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and necessarily incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action, or in connection with an appeal therein, if such director or officer acted, in good faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in, or, in the case of service for another corporation or other enterprise, not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. The corporation may not, however, indemnify any officer or director pursuant to Section 722(c) in respect of (1) a threatened action, or a pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed of, or (2) any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action was brought or, if no action was brought, any court of competent jurisdiction, determines upon application, that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such portion of the settlement and expenses as the court deems proper.

II-2

Section 723 of the NYBCL provides that an officer or director who has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of a civil or criminal action or proceeding of the character set forth in Section 722 is entitled to indemnification as permitted in such section. Section 724 of the NYBCL permits a court to award the indemnification required by Section 722.

Section 721 of the NYBCL provides that, in addition to indemnification provided in Article 7 of the NYBCL, a corporation may indemnify a director or officer by a provision contained in the certificate of incorporation or by-laws or by a duly authorized resolution of its shareholders or directors or by agreement, provided that no indemnification may be made to or on behalf of any director or officer if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that his acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or that such director or officer personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally entitled.

Section 402(b) of the NYBCL provides that a corporation’s certificate of incorporation may include a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of its directors to the corporation or its shareholders for damages for any breach of duty in such capacity, except (i) liability of a director if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to such director establishes that the director’s acts or omissions were in bad faith or involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or that he personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally entitled or that his acts violated Section 719 of the NYBCL or (ii) liability of any director for any act or omission prior to the adoption of a provision authorized by Section 402(b) of the NYBCL.

The bylaws of Midway-Tristate Corporation provide for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by New York law except if it is adjudged that such persons acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and, in either case, were material to the cause of action so adjudicated or such person gained a financial profit or other advantage to which such person was not legally entitled. The certificate of incorporation of Midway-Tristate Corporation provides for indemnification of all persons whom it shall have power to indemnify under Article 7 of the NYBCL to the fullest extent permitted under said Article and that no director of the corporation shall be liable for any breach of duty except if such person’s actions are adjudged to be in bad faith or involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law or such person personally gained a financial profit or other advantage to which such person was not legally entitled or that such person’s acts violated Section 719 of the NYBCL.

Texas

The South Texas Supply Company, Inc. is a Texas corporation. The Texas Business Corporation Act (“TBCA”) permits a Texas corporation to indemnify any present or former director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses incurred in connection with a proceeding in which any such person was, is or is threatened to be, made a party by reason of holding such office or position, provided that he conducted himself in good faith and reasonably believed that, in the case of conduct in his official capacity as a director or officer of the corporation, such conduct was in the corporation’s best interests and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, a director or officer may be indemnified only if he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. However, indemnification is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred where (a) a person is found liable on the basis that a personal benefit was improperly received or (b) the person is found liable in a derivative suit brought on behalf of the corporation and the person was not liable for willful or intentional misconduct. Under the TBCA, a director or officer must be indemnified in cases in which he is wholly successful on the merits or in the defense of the proceedings. The TBCA provides that indemnification pursuant to its provisions is not exclusive of other rights of indemnification to which a person may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. The TBCA authorizes corporations to maintain insurance to cover indemnification expenses on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, agent or employee of the corporation or was serving at the request of the corporation, regardless of whether the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against liability under the TBCA.

The bylaws of The South Texas Supply Company, Inc. provide that the board of directors of the corporation may authorize the corporation to pay expenses incurred by, or to satisfy a judgment or fine rendered or levied against directors and officers as provided by Article 2.02(A)(16) of the TBCA.

Insurance

The company has also obtained officers’ and directors’ liability insurance which insures against liabilities that officers and directors of each of the registrants may, in such capacities, incur.

Item 22.   Undertakings.

Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertake:

(a) (1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in effective registration statement; and

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering;

(4) that, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness.Provided, however,that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the

II-8

registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use; and

(5) that, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv)  any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(b) Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference in to the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

(c) Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement.

(d) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
