Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's 2001 financial statements, the
Company's management determined that previously issued financial statements
should be restated. The restatement will have the effect of decreasing net
income for 2001 and 2000 by approximately $1.8 million and $0.7 million,
respectively. The restatement will increase reported retained earnings as
of January 1, 2000 by $2.9 million. These errors primarily related to gas
inventory accounting, the proper clearing of employee benefit related costs
routinely accumulated on the balance sheet, and other reconciliation errors
and other errors related to the recording of estimates.
