Acquisition of Assets On October 21, 1996, pursuant to an Acquisition Agreement (Exhibit 2A hereto), Registrant acquired the assets of Valco, Inc.'s ("Valco") ready mix concrete and aggregates operation in Pueblo, Colorado for a cash purchase price of $5,148,000 net of $163,000 of accrued liabilities assumed. The assets purchased consist primarily of property, plant and equipment of $3,559,000, receivables of $917,000 inventories of $335,000 and a covenant not to compete of $500,000 (Exhibit 2B hereto). In addition to the above, pursuant to a Fee Sand and Gravel Lease (Exhibit 2C hereto), Registrant concurrently entered into a long-term lease to mine aggregates from properties in Pueblo owned by Valco. The lease calls for Registrant to pay Valco 37 cents per ton of aggregate mined with a minimum annual royalty of $300,000. Both amounts are subject to inflation adjustments. The terms and conditions of this acquisition and lease, including the consideration paid, were reached as the result of arms-length negotiations and bargaining between Registrant and Valco. There was, and is, no material relationship between the Registrant or any of its affiliates, directors or officers, or any associate of any director or officer and Valco. The acquisition was financed by the proceeds of the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (Exhibit 2D hereto) also entered into on October 21, 1996 with the Registrant's existing lending banks. The purchased operations are involved in the production and sale of ready-mix concrete and other building materials as well as the extraction and sale of sand and river rock.
