Report on the Financial Statements
We have reviewed the consolidated interim financial statements of EQ Parent Company, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheet as of March 31, 2014 and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013.
Management’s Responsibility
The Company’s management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial information in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this responsibility includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of the internal control sufficient to provide a reasonable basis for the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to conduct our reviews in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to reviews of interim financial information. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial information. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial information referred to above for it to be in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
To the Board of Directors
EQ Parent Company, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Note 5 - Line of Credit and Other Long-term Debt
On July 29, 2013, in connection with the Allstate acquisition, EQ Holdings entered into the Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with a syndicate of banks (collectively referred to as the "bank"), which amended and restated the Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement dated November 25, 2008, as previously amended and restated on March 1, 2011. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior term loan facility in the amount of $140,000,000 and a revolving line of credit with commitments up to $80,000,000, both of which will mature on July 1, 2016.
The Credit Agreement provides for both the revolving line of credit and the term loan facility to be increased, subject to certain terms and conditions, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $30,000,000. The Credit Agreement also contains certain financial and operational covenants which require EQ Holdings to maintain certain financial ratios. All obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by each of EQ Holdings’ subsidiaries and secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the borrower and each of its subsidiary guarantors, plus a pledge of EQ Holdings’ equity interests by EQ Parent Company, Inc.
The revolving line of credit is further subject to sub-limits of $50,000,000 for letters of credit and $7,000,000 for swing line loans. EQ Holdings had borrowings of approximately $5,400,000 and $0 under revolving line of credit and swing line loans at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The amount of outstanding letters of credit is approximately $34,662,000 and $37,444,000 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Outstanding letters of credit reduce available borrowings on the revolving line of credit. The revolving line of credit and swing line loans bear interest at the bank's prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin based on EQ Holdings’ total leverage (an effective rate of 5.25 percent at March 31, 2014). Interest is payable quarterly.
Long-term debt at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 is as follows:

Principal payments on the senior term note are due in quarterly installments of $3,500,000, with a final payment of $105,000,000 due in July 2016. The note bears interest at the bank's prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin based on the Company's total leverage. At March 31, 2014, $133,000,000 of the note bore interest at the LIBOR-based rate of 3.40 percent and the remaining $3,500,000 bore interest at the prime-based rate of 5.50 percent. At December 31, 2013, $136,500,000 of the note bore interest at the LIBOR-based rate of 3.42 percent and the remaining $3,500,000 bore interest at the prime-based rate of 5.50 percent.

Note 6 - Contingencies
General- In the normal course of conducting its business, the Company becomes involved in various lawsuits as well as administrative proceedings and governmental investigations related to environmental matters. Some of these proceedings may result in judgments being assessed against the Company which, from time to time, may have an impact on the earnings of a particular year. The Company does not believe that these proceedings, individually or in aggregate, are material to its business or its financial condition.
In the ordinary course of operations, the Company grants various levels of indemnification to waste haulers and generators. Management is not aware of any contingencies arising from these indemnifications that individually or in the aggregate would have a significant adverse impact on the consolidated interim financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2014 and 2013.

Note 6 - Contingencies (Continued)
Loss Contract- In 2003, the Company was hired by a customer to remediate a former dump site in the Cuyahoga National Forest under a long-term contract. The customer paid the Company $9,300,000 for the work to be performed. Revenue related to this project was recognized using the percentage-of-completion method. Under this method, revenue was recognized each period by the percentage of costs incurred to estimated total costs for the contract. In 2008, management determined the project would result in a loss. In 2010, the Company entered into a reimbursement agreement with the original customer for this project. Under the terms of this agreement, the customer reimburses the Company for the customer's proportionate share of certain costs incurred by the Company.
During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company spent approximately $176,000 and $672,000, respectively. No amounts were submitted to the customer for reimbursement during either period. An accrued loss of approximately $392,000 and $568,000 was recorded in other accrued liabilities at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, as management believes this represents the most likely estimate of costs to complete. Due to uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, it is reasonably possible that in the near term the Company will revise its cost estimates related to the project.
