BUSINESS GENERAL National Convenience Stores Incorporated (the "Company") is the largest operator of convenience stores in the state of Texas and one of the twenty largest in the United States. At June 30, 1994, the Company operated 709 specialty convenience stores in four cities in the state of Texas under the name Stop N Go(SM). Eighty percent of the Company's stores are located in the Houston and San Antonio, Texas areas where the Company is the largest convenience store operator. The stores sell fresh foods, traditional fast foods, alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages, tobacco products, groceries, lotto/lottery tickets, health and beauty aids and other nonfood merchandise, specialty items and incidental services. Approximately 90% of the Company's stores are equipped with self-serve gasoline dispensing facilities. The Company originally organized as a Texas corporation in 1959 and was reincorporated in Delaware in 1979. As more fully described below under "Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Reorganization", the Company filed for voluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization on December 9, 1991 and emerged from such on March 9, 1993 as a result of the confirmation of the Company's Revised Fourth Amended and Restated Joint Plan of Reorganization (the "Plan of Reorganization"). In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994, the Company divested its 80 operating convenience stores in the states of California and Georgia and acquired 88 stores in the Houston and Dallas/Fort Worth areas. With the consummation of this transaction the Company attained its goal of geographically consolidating its operations to within the state of Texas. The following table sets forth the distribution of the Company's stores by market as of June 30, 1994: Stores % Selling Stores of Total Gasoline ------ -------- -------- Texas Houston/Gulf Coast . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 425 59.9% 371 San Antonio . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 143 20.2 137 Dallas/Fort Worth . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 113 15.9 105 Austin . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 28 4.0 25 --- ----- --- Total . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 709 100.0% 638 === ===== === STORE OPERATIONS The Company's convenience stores are extended-hour retail facilities, emphasizing convenience to the customer. Substantially all the stores are open every day of the year and 608 operate 24 hours a day. Typically, the Company's stores are located in residential areas, on main -1- 5 thoroughfares, in small shopping centers or on other sites selected for easy accessibility and customer convenience. The stores' exteriors are of a similar design and color making them easily recognizable. The Company emphasizes high-quality products, personal and courteous service, and clean and modern stores. The stores attract lunch-time customers, early and late shoppers, weekend and holiday shoppers and customers who need only a few items at any time and desire rapid service. Approximately fifty of the stores are also targeted to attract the fast-food take- out customer via easily recognized national brand name "eatery" fast-food offerings. The Company's stores offer a diverse range of over 3,000 high-traffic consumer items including take-out foods, traditional fast-foods, fountain beverages, alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, soft drinks, candy, snacks, groceries, health and beauty aids, magazines and newspapers, automotive products, seasonal and promotional items, and school supplies. The Company sells lottery tickets in all of its stores and lotto tickets in most of its stores. Substantially all of the Company's stores sell money orders. Approximately 90% of the Company's stores are equipped with self-serve gasoline-dispensing facilities. The following table sets forth certain statistical information regarding the Company's sales for the periods indicated: Year Ended June 30, ---------------------------------------------------- Combined 1994 1993(1) 1992 --------- ------------ -------- (Dollar amounts expressed in millions) Sales.................................................... $880.5 $878.9 $958.5 Percentage of sales contributed by: Gasoline.............................................. 41.8% 42.4% 40.5% Alcoholic beverages................................... 13.2% 13.9% 15.2% Tobacco products...................................... 14.2% 15.2% 14.9% Other categories not individually contributing more than 10%........................... 30.8% 28.5% 29.4% ------- ------- ------- 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% ======= ======= ======= __________________ (1) Reflects the combining of the four months ended June 30, 1993 (reorganized company) and the eight months ended February 28, 1993 (predecessor company). The Company is continuing with its Neighborstore(R) concept merchandising strategy, whereby each store's product mix is linked directly to its local demographics and customer purchasing patterns. In certain instances the stores' product display and general appearance have been changed to match the demographics. Additionally, in fiscal 1991, the Company successfully pioneered the offering of national brand name fast-foods in "eateries" within the Company's convenience stores. The Company's "eateries" are a smaller scale version of the branded food kiosks found in shopping malls and airports. The national brand name fast-food items are prepared in-store with identical ingredients, packaging, procedures and quality standards as are used in the branded partners' own free-standing restaurants. The Company currently operates 53 fast food "eateries" in 50 of its stores. Brands represented in these stores include: Taco -2- 6 Bell(R), Kentucky Fried Chicken(R), Burger King(R), Pizza Hut(R), Dunkin Donuts(R), and Earl Campbell's Barbecue Express(R). In addition, the Company has a program for the continual updating of its older stores. Consistent with the Neighborstore concept, the policy is flexible in both layout and product mix. The Company recognizes that its future operations will be dependent in part on the continual remodeling and upgrading of its store base. A store replacement program will also eventually be required in order for the Company's stores to continue to be geographically located near its target customers' residences and workplaces. The Company estimates that it serves, on average, an aggregate of approximately 600,000 customers per day. The Company's operations are benefitted by warm, dry weather since a large part of the Company's product mix is concentrated in items that are consumed during periods when leisure-time activities are more prevalent. The Company's stores vary in terms of layout, size and quantity of items carried. The Company's basic design is a 2,600 square-foot, rectangularly-shaped store. In 1984, the Company developed a hexagonally-shaped 3,100 square-foot store (the "Hex"). These stores are generally built on a readily accessible corner location at a major intersection in an area of high population density. Approximately 85% of the Company's stores are of the basic rectangular shape and 13% are of the Hex design. The Company also operates 20 "Superstores," a 3,600 square-foot store design which was superseded by the Hex store. As is the norm in the convenience store industry, prices on most items are somewhat higher than in supermarkets and certain other retail outlets; however, the value placed by the customer on easy accessibility and convenience has historically enabled the Company to receive premium prices for its products. The Company does price-promote certain items in various key merchandise categories to aid in building customer traffic. Most of the items sold are nationally or locally advertised brands, which includes the Company's own private label cigarette. Substantially all sales are for cash or check, although the Company also accepts credit cards (VISA and MasterCard) and debit cards. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994 the Company began the implementation of a program to enhance and redefine the Company's focus on customer service and employee effectiveness. This program is the result of an extensive review by management and outside consultants. An integral component of the program involves the upgrading of equipment and technology through the installation of integrated state-of-the-art sales and inventory management systems. These systems will significantly automate store operations by capturing data on point-of-sale and scanning equipment. The program will also install pay-at-the-pump fueling stations at 60 of its stores which sell gasoline. The Company initiated the program in its Dallas/Fort Worth stores in early fiscal 1995 and estimates that it will incur in the aggregate capital expenditures of approximately $10.0 million in such market by mid fiscal 1995. Additionally, the Company estimates that it will incur approximately $3.2 million in consulting expenses in conjunction with the program, $1.3 million of which were incurred in fiscal 1994. The Company will evaluate -3- 7 the success of the program in the Dallas/Fort Worth test market before making the decision to expand it to all of the Company's stores. SUPPLIERS The Company purchases a substantial portion of its groceries, candy, tobacco and health and beauty aids through wholesale grocers. Soft drinks, beer, wine, bakery and dairy products are usually purchased from local suppliers. The Company also operates a Corporate Kitchen in Houston, Texas where it prepares and packages sandwiches, salads, snacks and other prepackaged foods for distribution to its stores in the Texas markets via two of its major suppliers. The Company purchases substantially all of its gasoline supplies from independent petroleum refiners and some gasoline supplies from major oil companies in the wholesale markets. The Company's inventories of gasoline turn over approximately every seven days, and the Company does not engage in speculative gasoline trading transactions or otherwise assume unusual market risks with respect thereto. REGULATORY MATTERS In certain of the Company's market areas, federal, state or local laws regulate the hours of operation and the sale of certain products, typically including alcoholic beverages, gasoline, tobacco products and lottery and lotto tickets. The most significant of such regulations limits or governs the sale of alcoholic beverages and the storage and sale of gasoline. Sale of Alcoholic Beverages - State and local regulatory agencies have the authority to approve, revoke, suspend or deny applications for and renewals of permits and licenses relating to the sale of alcoholic beverages and to impose various restrictions and sanctions. In many states, retailers of alcoholic beverages have been held responsible for damages caused by intoxicated individuals who purchased alcoholic beverages from them. While the potential exposure to the Company as a seller of alcoholic beverages is substantial, the Company has adopted procedures to minimize such exposure and, to date, management believes liability for such sales has not had a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Storage and Sale of Gasoline - The operation and ownership of underground storage tanks ("USTs") is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations. Federal regulations issued in 1984 and amended in 1988 pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, required the Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") to establish a comprehensive regulatory program for the detection, prevention and clean-up of leaking USTs. The EPA has issued regulations, including most recently the 1988 amendment to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, that establish requirements for (i) maintaining leak detection methods and equipment, (ii) upgrading USTs, (iii) taking corrective action in response to leaks, (iv) closing USTs to prevent future leaks, (v) keeping appropriate records and (vi) maintaining evidence of financial responsibility for taking corrective action and compensating third parties -4- 8 for bodily injury and property damage resulting from releases. These regulations also empower states to develop, administer and enforce their own regulatory programs, incorporating requirements which are at least as stringent as the federal standards. In order to ensure compliance with the federal and state environmental laws, the Company has developed a comprehensive gasoline storage and dispensing plan. During fiscal 1993, the Company refined the plan such that presently its primary focus is on upgrading gasoline dispensing equipment in accordance with upcoming deadlines imposed by regulatory authorities and on providing for the clean-up of existing and future contaminated sites. The gasoline plan generally covers all properties operated by the Company. Environmental Capital Commitments - To meet the minimum federal leak detection requirements, all product lines had to have line leak detectors installed as of December 22, 1990, and as of December 22, 1993, the Company had adopted approved tank system leak detection methods on all owned or operated USTs. The Company chose, in most cases, to meet this requirement by utilizing annual tank testing with daily inventory reconciliation. The Company installed pressurized distribution piping with automatic line leak detectors as of December 22, 1990, in accordance with the regulations. Beginning in fiscal year 1995, the Company will adopt the Statistical Inventory Reconciliation Method ("SIR") for the detection of leaking tanks. This method involves statistical analysis of gasoline inventory changes to detect leaking USTs. The federal regulations require the Company to have installed spill/overfill and corrosion protection equipment by December 22, 1998. However, the State of Texas requires all USTs to be upgraded with the spill/overfill prevention equipment by December 22, 1994. The Company estimates that, as of June 30, 1994, 82% of its tanks have spill/overfill prevention equipment installed. The Company's 1995 capital budget contains the necessary funds to upgrade the remaining tanks with spill/overfill prevention equipment and, consequently, the Company anticipates it will be in compliance with the December 22, 1994 deadline imposed by the State of Texas. The Company further estimates that 70% of its USTs are protected from corrosion either by installing fiberglass or steel fiberglass tanks or by upgrading existing steel tanks with cathodic protection. Management of the Company believes that the Company's long-range capital budget contains sufficient funds necessary to upgrade the remaining tanks prior to the December 22, 1998 deadline. In addition to the foregoing, the EPA has ranked the air quality in major cities in the United States based on the level of ozone measured. Two areas in which the Company currently conducts operations are considered to be ozone non-attainment areas: Houston and the Dallas/Fort Worth area. The Houston market is classified in the severe ozone non-attainment category while the Dallas/Fort Worth area is classified in the moderate ozone non-attainment category. Under rules promulgated by the EPA and the State of Texas, gasoline dispensing facilities in the two areas are required to have Stage II Vapor Recovery Equipment, by November 15, 1994, on all units except those that have not dispensed more than 10,000 gallons in any one month since January 1991. During fiscal 1994 and 1993, the Company spent $6.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively, on environmental capital equipment, including $6.1 million and $3.1 million, respectively, on -5- 9 Stage II Vapor Recovery Equipment. In order to ultimately comply with the aforementioned regulations by the deadlines described, the Company estimates it will have to spend approximately $11.8 million on additional equipment and installation through fiscal 1999, including $6.0 million for Stage II Vapor Recovery Equipment. Environmental Remediation Contingency - The majority of the Company's environmental remediation expenditures relate to the clean-up of contaminated soil caused by leaking underground gasoline storage tanks and underground piping systems. During the second quarter of fiscal year 1992 the Company completed a comprehensive plan covering its underground storage tanks in light of the expected funding shortfalls in the various state reimbursement programs. As a result, the Company recorded an increase to the environmental remediation reserve of $16.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 1992. Not included in this liability is approximately $4.0 million of reimbursements from established state funds which the Company believes to be probable of recovery. In connection with an updated environmental remediation cost analysis the Company increased its liability for future environmental remediation and tank removal costs by an additional $6.6 million in February 1993. At June 30, 1994, the remediation reserve totalled $21.8 million which included a $4.0 million reclassification, recorded during the third quarter of fiscal year 1994, related to anticipated reimbursements for future expenditures from established state trust funds which the Company believes to be probable of recovery. Beginning with the third quarter of fiscal year 1994, this $4.0 million amount is also included as an other asset in the Company's balance sheet. The states in which the Company operates, or has previously operated, have established trust funds for the reimbursement of costs related to remediation activities. The actual cost of remediating contaminated sites and removing tanks may be substantially lower or higher than that reserved due to the difficulty in estimating such costs and due to potential changes in the status of regulation and state reimbursement programs. The Company does not believe that any such amount below or in excess of that accrued is reasonably estimable. Since 1988, the Company has spent approximately $11.4 million for remediation activities at sites the Company is operating or has previously operated. Approximately 43% of such costs qualify for reimbursement from the various trust funds and the Company has been reimbursed $3.7 million for such costs through June 30, 1994. According to published reports, the Texas Petroleum Storage Tank Reimbursement Fund was depleted during 1993 which has necessitated delaying payment on reimbursement applications. As of June 30, 1994, the Company had filed claims with the State of Texas for the reimbursement of $1.2 million for past expenditures. Such reimbursement is included in other assets. While the Company believes the reimbursements are collectible, the Company estimates it could be several years before reimbursement occurs. The Company is required by state regulations to maintain evidence of financial responsibility for taking corrective action on remediation activities. In order to be in compliance with these requirements, the Company has successfully established that it is self-insured, with verification by the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission. -6- 10 EMPLOYEES As of June 30, 1994, the Company has approximately 5,300 employees, of whom approximately 230 are executive and supervisory personnel, approximately 4,400 are full-time store employees, and the balance are full-time staff personnel and part-time store employees. The Company experiences the high rate of turnover of store employees prevalent in the convenience store industry. The Company is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement and believes its relations with its employees to be satisfactory. COMPETITION The convenience store industry is highly competitive, and the Company competes with other convenience stores, local and national grocery store chains, gasoline service stations, drug stores, fast food operations, vending machines, discount stores and other types of retail outlets. The Company is the largest operator, or among the largest operators, of convenience stores in its major market areas. Each of the Company's stores competes primarily in its surrounding neighborhood, and the ability of each store to compete is largely dependent on location, access, signage, area, population growth, demographics and product mix. The Company also encounters competition from gasoline service stations which have installed facilities for the sale of other consumer items. These gasoline service stations have become a significant competitor within the convenience store industry. Although competition from gasoline retailers has increased in recent years, the Company's traditional convenience store competitors have significantly curtailed their new store construction programs in, or withdrawn from, some of the Company's major market areas as a result of their poor operating performance. Several of the country's largest convenience store operators have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy court protection in recent years. Nevertheless, the Company cannot predict the extent to which its major competitors may further reduce or expand their operations in cities where the Company operates. CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY REORGANIZATION Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Filing - On December 9, 1991, (the "Petition Date") the Company and substantially all of its wholly-owned active subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the "Bankruptcy Court"). The filing was precipitated by the loss of vendor credit which had become critical to the Company's financing needs as a result of poor operating results. In 1987, the Company began experiencing substantial net losses from its operations which it funded via a series of asset sales and sale and leaseback transactions. The excess of the sales proceeds over the operating losses requiring funding was used to reduce the Company's outstanding long- term debt. Despite the substantial reductions in long-term debt, the net operating losses resulted in -7- 11 the Company being required to obtain amendments to cure defaults of various financial ratio coverage tests contained in the Company's long-term bank debt agreements. Subsequently, the Company found it was unable to sell additional operating assets at prices regarded by management as reasonable. This combination of events led the Company, in its first quarter of fiscal 1992, to develop a rigorous cash conservation and liquidity enhancement program in preparation for the Company's winter third quarter, in which it had historically experienced substantial negative cash flows. A key ingredient in the program was the continued supply of vendor trade credit in the range of $30 to $35 million. However, commencing in the fourth week of November 1991, the Company experienced a rapid multi-million dollar reduction in the availability of such trade credit. As a result of the virtual elimination of vendor trade credit and the cutoff of deliveries of goods, the Company decided on December 9, 1991 to seek protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. Strategic Review of Company and Store Operations - Immediately upon entering Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization, the Company began implementing a series of cost reductions aimed at improving operating results. Chief among the cost reduction programs was a strategic review of store operations that evaluated each individual store, taking into consideration such factors as historical and projected cash flows, lease or ownership terms, age and condition of the property, the nature and amount of insurance claims, competition and the potential for future changes to any of the foregoing. The objective of the strategic review was to restructure the operations of the Company in order to maximize its cash-flow generating capability and achieve its ultimate return to long-term profitability. Other cost reduction efforts were based on utilizing the benefits of operating under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code to reduce specific expenses. As a result of the strategic review of store operations, the Company filed motions to reject 188 leases covering stores already closed as of the Petition Date. In addition, the review resulted in a 27% downsizing of the Company's convenience store operations from a 986 store base as of the Petition Date to the 719 store base at June 30, 1993. The downsizing was accomplished pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, wherein the Company had the right to assume or reject executory contracts, including any unexpired leases. Also, the Company entered into lease amendments with landlords covering approximately 20% of the Company's leased stores, as well as other equipment lessors to obtain rent expense reductions. As part of the strategic review, on July 10, 1992, the Company consummated the sale of 21 operating convenience stores located in and around the San Francisco Bay area. Also, on April 29, 1994, the Company completed the transaction whereby the Company, (i) exchanged its 53 operating convenience stores in Southern California, together with related inventories and equipment, for 88 operating convenience stores of The Circle K Corporation in the Dallas/Fort Worth and Houston, Texas areas, together with related inventories and equipment and, (ii) sold its 27 operating convenience stores in Atlanta, Georgia, together with related inventories and equipment, for cash consideration of $9,150,000. The Company is continuing to pursue the disposition of its surplus real estate with any resulting net cash proceeds being applied to reduce the outstanding balances as required under the Company's long-term bank debt agreements. Restructuring and Other Special Charges - In connection with the Chapter 11 filing and the -8- 12 resultant strategic review of company and store operations, the Company recorded $168.1 million of Restructuring and Other Special Charges at December 31, 1991, related to store closings, other assets affected by the Chapter 11 filing, insurance and environmental matters. See Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements incorporated by reference in Item 8 herein for a complete description of the various components of the charges. Plan of Reorganization (Effective March 9, 1993) - As a result of extensive negotiations held in December 1992, the Company reached a compromise agreement which was incorporated into and became the Plan of Reorganization. The Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan of Reorganization on February 25, 1993. The Plan of Reorganization subsequently became effective March 9, 1993 (the "Effective Date"). The Plan of Reorganization was designed to repay all priority creditors in full on the Effective Date or thereafter as provided in the Plan of Reorganization and to repay secured creditors in full over time with interest. Allowed unsecured claims totalling approximately $137.5 million were canceled in exchange for $9.3 million of cash, $1.0 million of new indebtedness and 5.91 million shares of newly issued Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of the reorganized company. All existing Series E Preferred Stock and existing common stock of the predecessor company were exchanged for an aggregate distribution of 90,000 shares of the newly issued Common Stock of the reorganized company. Consequently, a total of 6.0 million shares of newly issued Common Stock of the reorganized company were issued under the Plan of Reorganization. In addition, warrants to purchase up to an additional aggregate 1.35 million shares of newly issued Common Stock at $17.75 per share were distributed to the holders of the predecessor company's two publicly-held subordinated debenture series, the Series E Preferred Stock and the old common stock. All alleged seniority rights rising under the indentures relating to the publicly-held subordinated debentures were deemed satisfied and canceled as of the Effective Date. In addition, the Plan of Reorganization authorized the issuance of stock options to purchase up to 900,000 shares of Common Stock of the reorganized company to certain key employees and directors at $10.50 per share. Even though the Company has successfully emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, the Bankruptcy Court continues to exercise the authority to resolve disputes on pre-petition claims of creditors, to make rulings on matters related to the assumption or rejection of executory contracts and leases pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization and to make judgments on other matters related to the Plan of Reorganization. -9- 13 EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF REGISTRANT The following table sets forth the names, ages and certain additional information regarding the Company's executive officers: Name (1) Age Position -------- --- -------- V.H.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS THE DISCUSSION BELOW SETS FORTH VARIOUS ASPECTS OF THE CHAPTER 11 PROCEEDINGS, BUT IT IS NOT INTENDED TO BE AN EXHAUSTIVE SUMMARY. FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING THE EFFECT ON THE DEBTOR GROUP OF THESE PROCEEDINGS, REFERENCE SHOULD BE MADE TO THE BANKRUPTCY CODE AND THE CHAPTER 11 PROCEEDINGS OF THE DEBTOR GROUP. REORGANIZATION PROCEEDINGS UNDER CHAPTER 11 Chapter 11 Filing - On December 9, 1991, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the "Debtor Group") filed separate petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. On December 11, 1991, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order for the cases to be jointly administered. The cases were jointly administered under Case No. 91-49816-H4-11. A complete list of the Debtor Group which filed petitions for reorganization is set forth below: National Convenience Stores Incorporated Stop N Go Markets of Texas, Inc. Stop N Go Markets of Georgia, Inc. Schepps Food Stores, Inc. Second NCS Realty Company Third NCS Realty Company Fourth NCS Realty Company Sixth NCS Realty Company Seventh NCS Realty Company Eighth NCS Realty Company Ninth NCS Realty Company Tenth NCS Realty Company Eleventh NCS Realty Company Twelfth NCS Realty Company Thirteenth NCS Realty Company Kempco Petroleum Company Hot Stop Foods, Inc. Texas Super Duper Markets, Inc. Jay's Washaterias, Inc. Shortly after the Petition Date, an official unsecured creditors' committee (the "Committee"), representing all unsecured creditors of the Debtor Group, including both the publicly-held debentures and the unsecured trade creditors, was organized. The Committee had the right to review and object to certain business transactions and participated in the formulation of the Plan of Reorganization. The Debtor Group was required to pay certain expenses of the Committee, including legal counsel, accountants and other professional fees, to the extent approved by the Bankruptcy Court. Plan of Reorganization - As a result of extensive negotiations held in December 1992, the Company reached a compromise agreement which was incorporated into and became the Plan of Reorganization. The Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan of -12- 16 Reorganization on February 25, 1993. The Plan of Reorganization subsequently became effective March 9, 1993 (the "Effective Date"). The Plan of Reorganization was designed to repay all priority creditors in full on the Effective Date or thereafter as provided in the Plan of Reorganization and to repay secured creditors in full over time with interest. Allowed unsecured claims totalling approximately $137.5 million were canceled in exchange for $9.3 million of cash, $1.0 million of new indebtedness and 5.91 million shares of newly issued Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of the reorganized company. All existing Series E Preferred Stock and existing common stock of the predecessor company were exchanged for an aggregate distribution of 90,000 shares of the newly issued Common Stock of the reorganized company. Consequently, a total of 6.0 million shares of newly issued Common Stock of the reorganized company were issued under the Plan of Reorganization. In addition, warrants to purchase up to an additional aggregate 1.35 million shares of newly issued Common Stock at $17.75 per share were distributed to the holders of the predecessor company's two publicly-held subordinated debenture series, the Series E Preferred Stock and the old common stock. All alleged seniority rights rising under the indentures relating to the publicly-held subordinated debentures were deemed satisfied and canceled as of the Effective Date. In addition, the Plan of Reorganization authorized the issuance of stock options to purchase up to 900,000 shares of Common Stock of the reorganized company to certain key employees and directors at $10.50 per share. Claims Procedures - Pre-petition claims held by creditors of the Debtor Group which were contingent or unliquidated at the commencement of the Chapter 11 proceedings were generally allowable against the Debtor Group in amounts fixed by the Bankruptcy Court or otherwise agreed upon. These claims, including, without limitation, those which arise in connection with the rejection of executory contracts and lease obligations and with resolution of litigation, are expected to be substantial. The Company is continuing to research and evaluate the proofs of claims received. As of September 23, 1994, 3,005 proofs of claims had been filed against the Company which had not been withdrawn and which had a stated aggregate value of approximately $357.4 million for the proofs of claim specifying amounts; numerous other proofs of claim do not specify amounts. Of the total, 2,939 claims valued at $293.5 million had been accepted for settlement by the Company. The remaining number of claims includes other unresolved claims, including duplicate claims filed by the same claimant and also includes duplicate claims filed by separate parties for the same asserted liability. The Debtor Group considers the amounts claimed in the remaining unsettled proofs of claim to be an unreliable estimate of their liability. In the opinion of management, certain of these claims assert unrealistic amounts of liability, are duplicate claims or have other defects. Consequently, as of September 23, 1994, the Debtor Group is continuing to prosecute objections in the Bankruptcy Court for 15 of the remaining disputed claims covering $22.9 million. Of the disputed claims, $6.3 million is the amount the Company estimates is not covered by insurance. In addition, as of September 23, 1994, 49 claims for $37.1 million had been assigned to a mediation/settlement procedure outlined in the Plan of Reorganization. The Debtor Group will continue to reconcile the scheduled claims with the claims asserted in proofs of claims and will take appropriate steps to eliminate all duplications and other inaccuracies to ensure that only valid claims are allowed by the Bankruptcy Court. This process will continue until all claims are resolved and is expected to last for an extended period of time. -13- 17 The majority of outstanding disputed claims are general unsecured claims. Pursuant to the terms of the Plan of Reorganization, a total of 1,616,559 shares of Common Stock were issued to Boatmen's Trust Company as agent for the general unsecured creditors, pending allowance of their respective claims. As of September 20, 1994, Boatmen's had allocated 873,847 shares to individual unsecured creditors and had issued the appropriate share certificates. The remaining 742,712 shares will be allocated in the future as additional general unsecured claims are allowed. On January 10, 1994, the Bankruptcy Court approved a settlement of the Proofs of Claim of National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and certain related entities ("National Union"), which settlement provided for National Union to have an allowed general unsecured claim under the Plan of Reorganization in the amount of $4,029,319, for the release of $4,494,152 in Letters of Credit held by National Union and for the reissuance of Letters of Credit totalling $9,591,925 to National Union. The settlement also contemplates the payment by National Union of certain proofs of claim by claimants whose claims are covered by National Union insurance. As a result of the settlement with National Union, the amount of unresolved general unsecured claims was substantially reduced. On September 14, 1994, an Order of the Bankruptcy Court was entered approving a settlement of the proofs of claim of the current lessors of the Debtors' home office location. The settlement provides for an aggregate allowed claim in the amount of $3,516,989. The settlement substantially reduced the amount of unresolved general unsecured claims. The amount originally claimed by these lessors, excluding the potentially duplicate claims, was in excess of $7,900,000. OTHER LITIGATION George Shields, Garry Cocker, Michael W. Armstrong & Sheila B. Armstrong, Joint Tenants, Michael W. Armstrong & Sheila B. Armstrong Revocable Living Trust, Bobby J. Moon, and Jeannie M. Moon, on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, Plaintiffs v. V. H. Van Horn, Richard C. Steadman, Dunbar N. Chambers, Jr., Raymond W. Oeland, Jr. and Robert Stobaugh, Defendants; in the 125th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas (the "State Court Action"). In this action, filed on February 24, 1993, the shareholder Plaintiffs had sought class certification to assert claims by all shareholders of the Company prior to the confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization. The Plaintiffs contended, among other things, that the write-offs which were taken prior to the confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization were improper and that the Plan of Reorganization, as approved by order of the Bankruptcy Court, improperly deprived Plaintiffs of their ownership of the Company. Plaintiffs had sought unspecified compensatory and punitive damages and costs of defense. The Company had filed an adversary proceeding against the shareholders/Plaintiffs styled National Convenience Stores Incorporated v. George Shields and Garry Cocker, in the Bankruptcy Court, Adversary No. 93-4454 (the "Adversary Proceeding"). The Company's complaint in the Adversary Proceeding had requested that the Bankruptcy Court enforce its injunction contained in the Order confirming the Plan of Reorganization since the Adversary Proceeding, as a collateral attack upon the Order of Confirmation, contradicts the Order of Confirmation. On October 29, 1993, the Bankruptcy Court entered judgment for the Company against Messrs. Shields and Cocker. The judgment enjoined Messrs. Shields and Cocker from prosecuting the State Court Action and ordered Messrs. Shields and Cocker to dismiss the State Court Action. The judgment was appealed by Messrs. Shields and Cocker to the United States -14- 18 District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. The Company had filed a further action in Bankruptcy Court against Messrs. Shields and Cocker styled National Convenience Stores Incorporated v. Shields and Cocker, Adversary No. 93-4705 (the "Compensation Lawsuit") in which the Company sought compensation for costs incurred as a result of the violation of the permanent injunction by the shareholder/Plaintiffs mentioned above. The Directors, who are Defendants in the State Court Action, and the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the Plaintiffs, in the State Court Action, and Messrs. Shields and Cocker with respect to the State Court Action, the Adversary Proceeding and the Compensation Lawsuit. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Plaintiffs, in the State Court Action, and Messrs Shields and Cocker agreed (i) to release each of their claims against the Directors who are Defendants and the Company; (ii) to dismiss the State Court Action; (iii) to sell any shares of Company stock owned; (iv) not to purchase any Company stock for ten years; and (v) to pay the Company $1,000. The Company agreed to dismiss the Adversary Proceeding and the Compensation Lawsuit. The State Court Action, the Appeal of the Adversary Proceeding and the Compensation Lawsuit have been dismissed. There is no other litigation pending or threatened against the Company that management believes would have a material adverse effect on the financial position or the business of the Company. See, however, Item 1 "Business--Regulatory Matters" for information relating to the Company's potential litigation exposure as a retailer of alcoholic beverages and gasoline. ITEM 4.

The purchases of both issuances of debentures were financed pursuant to promissory notes payable executed by such officers and directors. As a result of the ratification of the 1989 Equity Incentive Plan on October 25, 1989, no additional debentures were allowed to be issued thereafter. During fiscal 1992, certain officers and directors of the predecessor company exercised their right to exchange the outstanding $5,448,000 of promissory notes payable held by the predecessor company for the related floating interest rate subordinated debentures. (2) For financial reporting purposes, the Company wrote off the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP") receivable upon emerging from Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization and adopting "fresh-start reporting" as set forth in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' Statement of Position 90-7 "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code". Concurrently with emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization, the Company proposed termination of the ESOP and filed for a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the tax consequences of the proposed termination of the ESOP. To date the Company has not received such ruling. (3) During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994 the Company extended a three-year $300,000 unsecured loan with interest payable at 8 1/2% annually to Mr. V. H. Van Horn, who serves as a director and as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The loan is payable in 35 monthly installments of $2,500 of principal and interest and a final payment of the then unpaid principal and interest. The terms of the loan also require that any bonus compensation earned by Mr. V. H. Van Horn while the loan is outstanding be applied as a mandatory prepayment of the loan.
