In February 1994, subsidiaries of 3CI acquired all the assets and business operations of American Medical Transports Corporation (AMTC), an Oklahoma corporation, and A/MED, Inc. (A/MED), a Delaware corporation. Both AMTC and A/MED were engaged in businesses similar to that of 3CI. Waste Systems, Inc. (WSI), a Delaware corporation, was the majority shareholder of both AMTC and A/MED (the Companies). Additionally, in February 1994, WSI purchased 1,255,182 shares of 3CI common stock from American Medical Technologies (AMOT). As a result of the transactions described above, WSI became the majority shareholder of 3CI immediately following the acquisition of AMTC and A/MED. For accounting purposes, AMTC and A/MED were considered the acquirer in a reverse acquisition. The combined financial statements of AMTC and A/MED are the historical financial statements of the Company for periods prior to the date of the business acquisition. Historical combined shareholders' equity of AMTC and A/MED has been retroactively restated for the equivalent number of 3CI shares received for the assets and business operations of AMTC and A/MED, and the combined accumulated deficit of AMTC and A/MED has been carried forward. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared, without audit, by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. As applicable under such regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes that the presentation and disclosures herein are adequate to make the information not misleading and the financial statements reflect all adjustments and are of a normal recurring nature which are necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1996, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. (2) NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE Net income (loss) per common share was computed by dividing net income (loss) for each quarterly period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each period. In October 1994, the Company acquired substantially all the assets and assumed certain liabilities of River Bay Corporation. The 865,500 shares issued in connection with the acquisition of River Bay have been excluded from weighted average shares outstanding. The accretion of a Stock Put Option related to the purchase of the River Bay division is reflected as a reduction of net income in determining net income to common shareholders. In conjunction with the business acquisition with respect to AMTC and A/MED the weighted average shares outstanding have been retroactively restated for reverse acquisition accounting to reflect the equivalent shares based on the conversion ratio established in the merger transaction. The effect of stock options and warrants is antidilutive and is therefore not considered in the calculation of net loss per common share. 5 7 (3) BUSINESS CONDITIONS The Company has consistently incurred losses for the past several fiscal years and losses have continued into fiscal 1997. The Company has historically relied on WSI for funding, and while such support was necessary for the first and second quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company did not need any support during the third quarter of fiscal 1997. Although such support may be necessary for the remaining fiscal year of 1997. In October 1994, WSI made a non-interest bearing cash advance of $1,000,000 to the Company, which was converted into 416,667 shares of Common Stock in April 1995. In the first half of 1995, WSI made non-interest bearing cash advances totaling $4,100,000 to the Company. In June 1995, the Company executed a $6,000,000 revolving promissory note, which was utilized in part to repay the advances. This note was renegotiated in September 1995, increasing the total available to $8,000,000 including interest, with principal not to exceed $7,400,000. Interest is payable in quarterly installments which are automatically added to the outstanding principal balance, if not paid. The note bears interest at the prime rate and became due on December 31, 1996. As of June 30, 1997 and September 30,1996, the Company has borrowed $4,205,000 and $8,842,969 respectively under the note. In June 1997, WSI converted $7,000,000 of debt into 1,000,000 shares of 3CI preferred stock. Interest expense in 1997 has increased significantly as a result of the of the advances made pursuant to the interest bearing note. Since September 30, 1996, WSI has made additional cash advances to the Company totaling $2,362,000 including interest expense. Due to the additional cash advances that have been made in excess of the principal in the original promissory note, the Company entered into a second Revolving Credit Facility of $2.7 million including deferred interest dated December 20, 1996 with a maturity date of February 28, 1997. It is the intent of WSI and 3CI that this Revolving Promissory Note shall evidence all sums owing by 3CI to WSI, to the extent that such sums represents advances of funds by 3CI in excess of the maximum limits fixed under that certain $8,000,000 Revolving Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995. The Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995 has a due date of December 31, 1996 of which the Company has requested from and received a monthly extension of the Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995 to discuss with WSI on the possibility of restructuring the terms of the Revolving Promissory Note. This note has been further extended until September 30, 1997. The second Revolving Credit Facility of $2.7 million dated December 20, 1996, with a maturity date of February 28, 1997, has also been extended until June 30, 1997. In February 1997, the Company received a letter from the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. regarding the Company's failure to meet listing requirements. These requirements include maintaining a minimum capital and surplus of at least $1,000,000 and a minimum bid price of $1.00. While the Company remained out of compliance with this requirement, the NASDAQ allowed the Company to remain listed with an exception added to it's trading symbol. The NASDAQ Stock Market gave the Company until June 25, 1997, to meet the listing requirement. In June 1997, WSI converted $7,000,000 of debt into 1,000,000 shares of 3CI preferred stock. This conversion has allowed the Company to meet the listing requirement of the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. On June 26, 1997, the NASDAQ Stock Market Inc. has informed the Company that has been found to be in compliance with all requirements necessary to for continued listing on the exchange, the exception to it's trading symbol has been removed. In connection with conversion of debt to preferred stock, WSI cancelled the Revolving Credit Facility of $2.7 million dated December 20, 1996, with a maturity date of February 28, 1997 which had been previously extended to June 30, 1997. The conversion has also resulted in the reduction of the outstanding indebtedness of the Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995. The Company has received an extension of the Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995. This has been done in order for the Company to restructure the terms and conditions of the note. If a resolution can not be accomplished and the Company is unable to obtain alternative financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to meet its 6 8 obligations as they become due or realize the recorded value of its assets and would likely be forced to seek bankruptcy protection. The nature and level of competition in the medical waste industry has remained high for several years. This condition has produced aggressive price competition and results in pressure on profit margins. The Company competes against companies which have access to greater capital resources. In order to compete in this industry on a long-term basis and fully realize its business strategy, the Company will require additional and continued financing and other assistance from its current stockholders and if available, from outside sources. There is no assurance that adequate funds for these purposes will be available when needed or, if available, on terms acceptable to the Company. (4) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In May 1995, a group of minority stockholders of the Company, including Patrick Grafton, former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, acting individually and purportedly on behalf of all minority stockholders, and on behalf of the Company, filed suit in James T. Rash, et al v. Waste Systems, Inc., et al, No. 95-024912 in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, 129th Judicial District, against the Company, WSI and various directors of the Company. The plaintiffs have alleged minority stockholder oppression, breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract and "thwarting of reasonable expectations" and have demanded an accounting, appointment of a receiver for the sale of the Company, unspecified actual damages and punitive damages of $10 million, plus attorney's fees. In addition, Mr. Grafton has alleged unspecified damages as a result of his removal as an officer and director of the Company and the Company's failure to renew his employment agreement in March 1995 and has alleged that such removal was wrongful and ineffective. The Company's insurer has denied coverage in the lawsuit. The Company has denied all material allegations of the lawsuit and believes it has adequately reserved for potential losses related to this matter. However, the outcome of this cannot be predicted, and an adverse decision in the lawsuit would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and it's net cash flows. The Company has reached an agreement in principle with some, but not all, with the plantiffs for the settlement action. The execution of the appropriate documentation to evidence this settlement agreement has not yet been completed. If completed, in its current form, the proposed settlement would require court approval. The Company and Mr. Grafton have reached a settlement of Mr. Grafton's individual claims relating to his removal as an officer and director of the Company and the Company's failure to renew his employment agreement. The Company is in the process of performing its obligations pursuant to the settlement agreement. In June 1995, the former stockholders of Med-Waste filed suit in James H. Shepherd, et al v. 3CI Complete Compliance Corporation, et al, No. C.V.-95-1441-1 in the Circuit Court of Hot Spring County, Arkansas, against the Company and various current and former officers and directors of the Company. Plaintiffs have alleged violations of federal and state securities laws, breach of contract, common law fraud and negligence in connection with the acquisition of Med-Waste by the Company and have demanded rescission, restitution, unspecified actual damages and punitive damages of $10 million, plus attorney's fees. The case has been transferred to the United States District Court of the Western District of Arkansas, Hot Springs Division. The parties, other than Patrick Grafton, former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, have agreed to settle the suit in consideration for the issuance by the Company to the plaintiffs of 250,000 shares of common stock and the payment by the Company to the plaintiffs of 20% to 55% of the pre-tax profits, as defined, attributable to the assets previously acquired from Med-Waste until such time as the shares of common stock held by the plaintiffs become freely tradable and the market price of the common stock averages at least $2.50 over a period of 42 consecutive days. During the nine months ended June 30, 1997 and the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996, the Company made payments totaling approximately $193,000 and $179,500 respectively, to the plaintiffs related to this agreement. In addition, the Company and WSI have agreed to repurchase the shares of Common Stock held by the plaintiffs for $2.50 per share in certain events, including the bankruptcy of the Company or in 7 9 the event WSI ceases to be the largest beneficial holder of the common stock. The obligations of the Company to the plaintiffs are secured by a security interest in most of the assets of the Company, and WSI has agreed to subordinate its loans to the Company, and all related security interests, to the obligations and the related security interests of the Company to the plaintiffs. On or about March 10, 1997 the Company commenced arbitration proceedings before the American Arbitration Association in Houston, Texas against River Bay Corporation and Marlan Baucum seeking to set aside a Purchase Agreement entered into between those parties on or about October 10, 1994, together with ancillary agreements pertaining thereto. The Company is seeking damages and/or to set aside the Purchase Agreement and collateral agreements, including a Put Option Agreement which, if otherwise enforceable, would require the payment by the Company of approximately $1,700,000.00 for 565,500 shares of 3CI stock. On or about May 10, 1997 the Company filed a Petition of Arbitration in Suit No. 422,107 of the First Judicial District Court, Caddo Parish, Louisiana, naming River Bay Corporation and Marlan Baucum as defendants therein. This lawsuit seeks an injunction and stay of all judicial and extra-judicial proceedings pursuant to the Put Agreement until such time as the arbitration is completed. This action was removed by the defendants to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, Shreveport Division in Civil Action No. 97-0578. In connection with an auto accident in July 1996, two suits have been filed against the Company. Ryan O'Neil Youmans & Anita Youmans v. American 3CI, et al, No. CV9604899, was filed in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County, Alabama, in August 1996. Jimmy R. Whitfield & Rhonda Whitfield v. Paul Bronger, American 3CI, et al. No. CV-96-847, was filed in the Circuit Court of Shelby County, Alabama in November of 1996. These proceedings have just been initiated and little or no discovery has been conducted. Although the Company's insurer has acknowledged that it provides coverage for this accident, the outcome of this cannot be predicted. An adverse decision in the lawsuit is not likely to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and net cash flows. In response, on April 9, 1997 Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank, assignees of certain rights under the Purchase Agreement, commenced a complaint for declaratory and monetary relief in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, Jackson Division in Civil Action No. 3:97cv249BN. The Smith County Bank and Bank of Raleigh have prayed declaratory judgment declaring the arbitration provision in the Purchase Agreement to be not binding upon said banks, declaratory judgement declaring the claims of 3CI against River Bay to be subordinate to the claims of the banks, for unspecified compensatory damages and for punitive damages of at least $1,000,000.00. The District Court has stayed this action as well, pending arbitration. As of June 30, 1997, the Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank have collected $104,000 of the Company's accounts receivables that were pledged in the initial agreement. An adverse decision in the lawsuit is not likely to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and net cash flows. The Company is subject to certain other litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management of the Company, the amounts ultimately payable, if any, as a result of such claims and assessment will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's financial position, result of operations or net cash flows except where noted above. 8 10 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following summarizes (in thousands) the Company's operations: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended June 30, June 30, ------------------- ------------------- 1997 1996 1997 1996 ------- ------- ------ -------- Revenues $ 4,669 $ 4,685 13,978 $ 13,837 Costs of Services 3,632 3,413 10,800 10,749 Selling, General and Administrative Expense 625 899 2,346 2,807 Income (loss) from operations 88 (182) (190) (1,255) Other Expense and Stock Accretion, Net (278) (226) (903 (626) Net loss (189) (408) (967) (1,881) THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996: REVENUES: Revenues for the three month period ended June 30, 1997, remained constant with sales of $4,669,000 as compared with revenues for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 of $4,685,000. The Company has been able to remain consistent notwithstanding continued downward pressure on pricing resulting from the high level of competition in the industry. COSTS OF SERVICES: Costs of services increased $219,000, or 6.4%, to $3,632,000 during the three months ended June 30, 1997, from $3,413,000 during the comparable period in 1996. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues increased to 77.8% during the three months ended June 30, 1997 from 72.8% during the comparable period in 1996. The increased cost of services resulted from higher labor related costs. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES ("SG&A"): Selling, General and Administrative expense for the three month period ended June 30, 1997, decreased to $625,000 for the months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $899,000 for the comparable period in 1996. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 13.4% during the three months ended June 30, 1997 from 19.2% during the comparable period in 1996 related to the consolidation and elimination of duplicative administrative functions. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE for the three months ended June 30, 1997 decreased to $323,816 compared to $555,357 for the three months ended June 30, 1996. This reduction is primarily related to the Impairment of Intangible asset writedown taken at September 30, 1996. 9 11 INTEREST EXPENSE increased to $236,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 from $226,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996. The increase in interest expense is primarily attributable to the increase in cash advances from the Promissory Note with the Company's majority shareholders. NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996: REVENUES: Revenues increased to $141,000, or 1.0%, to $13,978,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 1997 from $13,837,000 during the comparable period in 1996 as the Company continued to concentrate on higher-margin professional accounts. The Company has been able to achieve the increase notwithstanding continued downward pressure on pricing resulting from the high level of competiton in the industry. COSTS OF SERVICES: Costs of services increased $51,000, or .5%, to $10,800,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 1997, from $10,749,000 during the comparable period in 1996. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues increased to 77.3% during the nine months ended June 30, 1997 from 77.7% during the comparable period in 1996. The principal reasons for this increase is a result from higher labor related costs. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES ("SG&A"): Selling, General and Administrative expense for the nine month period ended June 30, 1997, decreased to $2,346,000 for the months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $2,807,000 for the comparable period in 1996. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 16.8% during the nine months ended June 30, 1997 from 20.3% during the comparable period in 1996. This decrease is primarily due to the consolidation and elimination of duplicative administrative functions. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 decreased to $1,022,000 compared to $1,537,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1996. This reduction is primarily related to the Impairment of Intangible asset writedown taken at September 30, 1996. INTEREST EXPENSE increased to $748,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 from $590,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1996. The increase in interest expense is primarily attributable to the increase in cash advances from the Promissory Note with the Company's majority shareholders. OPERATING ACTIVITIES The Company has continued to experience a cash loss from operations during the nine months ended June 30, 1997. The Company anticipates a cash deficit from operations for the remainder of fiscal year 1997 and will be dependent upon WSI to fund its continued operations. However, no assurance can be given that WSI will continue to advance funds to the Company and to forego demand for payment of the current indebtedness of the Company to WSI. In the event that WSI fails to advance required funds to the Company or demands paytment of current indebtedness, the Company would have limited financing sources and would likely be forced to seek bankruptcy protection. 10 12 INVESTING ACTIVITIES During the first three quarters ending in June 30, 1997, the Company invested $1,131,000 for transportation, machinery and equipment, computer equipment and software. FINANCING ACTIVITIES The Company has historically funded its operations, acquisitions and debt service through cash advances from WSI. As a result of its prior expansion and program of acquisitions, the Company has experienced liquidity deficiencies. In October 1994, WSI made a non-interest bearing cash advance of $1,000,000 to the Company, which was converted into 416,667 shares of Common Stock in April 1995. In the first half of 1995, WSI made non-interest bearing cash advances totaling $4,100,000 to the Company. In June 1995, the Company executed a $6,000,000 revolving promissory note, which was utilized in part to repay the advances. This note was renegotiated in September 1995, increasing the total available to $8,000,000 including interest, with principal not to exceed $7,400,000. Interest is payable in quarterly installments which are automatically added to the outstanding principal balance, if not paid. The note bears interest at the prime rate and became due on December 31, 1996. As of June 30, 1997, and September 30,1996, the Company has borrowed $4,205,000 and $8,842,969 respectively under the note. As a significant amount of the advances from WSI have historically been non interest bearing, some of which was ultimately converted to equity, interest expense in 1997 has increased significantly as a result of the of the advances made pursuant to the interest bearing note. Since September 30, 1996, WSI has made additional cash advances to the Company totaling $2,362,000 including interest expense. Due to the additional cash advances that have been made in excess of the principal in the original promissory note, the Company entered into a second Revolving Credit Facility of $2.7 million including deferred interest dated December 20, 1996 with a maturity date of February 28, 1997. It is the intent of WSI and 3CI that this Revolving Promissory Note shall evidence all sums owing by 3CI to WSI, to the extent that such sums represents advances of funds by 3CI in excess of the maximum limits fixed under that certain $8,000,000 Revolving Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995. The Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995, has a due date of December 31, 1996, of which the Company has requested from and received a monthly extension of the Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995, from WSI. The Company is currently in discussions with WSI concerning the restructuring of the terms of the Revolving Promissory Note. This note has been further extended until September 30, 1997. The second Revolving Credit Facility of $2.7 million dated December 20, 1996, with a maturity date of February 28, 1997, had been extended until June 30, 1997. In February 1997, the Company received a letter from the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. regarding the Company's failure to meet listing requirements. These requirements include maintaining a minimum capital and surplus of at least $1,000,000 and a minimum bid price of $1.00. While the Company remained out of compliance with this requirement, the NASDAQ allowed the Company to remain listed with an exception added to it's trading symbol. The NASDAQ Stock Market gave the Company until June 25, 1997, to meet the listing requirement. In June 1997, WSI converted $7,000,000 of debt into 1,000,000 shares of 3CI preferred stock. This conversion has allowed the Company to meet the listing requirement of the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. On June 26, 1997, the NASDAQ Stock Market Inc. has informed the Company that has been found to be in compliance with all requirements necessary to for continued listing on the exchange, the exception to it's trading symbol has been removed. In connection with conversion of debt to preferred stock, WSI cancelled the Revolving Credit Facility of $2.7 million 11 13 dated December 20, 1996, with a maturity date of February 28, 1997 which had been previously extended to June 30, 1997. The conversion has also resulted in the reduction of the outstanding indebtedness of the Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995. The Company has received an extension of the Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995. This has been done in order for the Company to restructure the terms and conditions of the note. If a resolution can not be accomplished and the Company is unable to obtain alternative financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to meet its obligations as they become due or realize the recorded value of its assets and would likely be forced to seek bankruptcy protection. The nature and level of competition in the medical waste industry has remained high for several years. This condition has produced aggressive price competition and results in pressure on profit margins. The Company competes against companies which have access to greater capital resources. In order to compete in this industry on a long-term basis and fully realize its business strategy, the Company will require additional and continued financing and other assistance from its current stockholders and if available, from outside sources. There is no assurance that adequate funds for these purposes will be available when needed or, if available, on terms acceptable to the Company. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings - In May 1995, a group of minority stockholders of the Company, including Patrick Grafton, former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, acting individually and purportedly on behalf of all minority stockholders, and on behalf of the Company, filed suit in James T. Rash, et al v. Waste Systems, Inc., et al, No. 95-024912 in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, 129th Judicial District, against the Company, WSI and various directors of the Company. The plaintiffs have alleged minority stockholder oppression, breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract and "thwarting of reasonable expectations" and have demanded an accounting, appointment of a receiver for the sale of the Company, unspecified actual damages and punitive damages of $10 million, plus attorney's fees. In addition, Mr. Grafton has alleged unspecified damages as a result of his removal as an officer and director of the Company and the Company's failure to renew his employment agreement in March 1995 and has alleged that such removal was wrongful and ineffective. The Company's insurer has denied coverage in the lawsuit. The Company has denied all material allegations of the lawsuit and believes it has adequately reserved for potential losses related to this matter. However, the outcome of this cannot be predicted, and an adverse decision in the lawsuit would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and it's net cash flows. The Company has reached an agreement in principle with some, but not all, with the Named Plaintiffs for the settlement of this action. The execution of the appropriate documentation to evidence this settlement agreement has not yet been completed. If completed, in its current form, the proposed settlement would require court approval. The Company and Mr. Grafton have reached a settlement of Mr. Grafton's individual claims relating to his removal as an officer and director of the Company and the Company's failure to renew his employment agreement. The Company is in the process of performing its obligations pursuant to the settlement agreement. In June 1995, the former stockholders of Med-Waste filed suit in James H. Shepherd, et al v. 3CI Complete Compliance Corporation, et al, No. C.V.-95-1441-1 in the Circuit Court of Hot Spring County, Arkansas, against the Company and various current and former officers and directors of the Company. Plaintiffs have alleged violations of federal and state securities laws, breach of contract, common law fraud and negligence in connection with the acquisition of Med-Waste by the Company and have demanded rescission, restitution, unspecified actual damages and punitive damages of $10 million, plus attorney's fees. The case has been transferred to the United States District Court of the Western District of Arkansas, Hot Springs Division. The parties, other than Patrick Grafton, former Chief Executive 12 14 Officer of the Company, have agreed to settle the suit in consideration for the issuance by the Company to the plaintiffs of 250,000 shares of common stock and the payment by the Company to the plaintiffs of 20% to 55% of the pre-tax profits, as defined, attributable to the assets previously acquired from Med-Waste until such time as the shares of common stock held by the plaintiffs become freely tradable and the market price of the common stock averages at least $2.50 over a period of 42 consecutive days. During the nine months ended June 30, 1997 and the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996, the Company made payments totaling approximately $193,000 and $179,500 respectively, to the plaintiffs related to this agreement. In addition, the Company and WSI have agreed to repurchase the shares of Common Stock held by the plaintiffs for $2.50 per share in certain events, including the bankruptcy of the Company or in the event WSI ceases to be the largest beneficial holder of the common stock. The obligations of the Company to the plaintiffs are secured by a security interest in most of the assets of the Company, and WSI has agreed to subordinate its loans to the Company, and all related security interests, to the obligations and the related security interests of the Company to the plaintiffs. On or about March 10, 1997 the Company commenced arbitration proceedings before the American Arbitration Association in Houston, Texas against River Bay Corporation and Marlan Baucum seeking to set aside a Purchase Agreement entered into between those parties on or about October 10, 1994, together with ancillary agreements pertaining thereto. The Company is seeking damages and/or to set aside the Purchase Agreement and collateral agreements, including a Put Option Agreement which, if otherwise enforceable, would require the payment by the Company of approximately $1,700,000.00 for 565,500 shares of 3CI stock. On or about May 10, 1997 the Company filed a Petition of Arbitration in Suit No. 422,107 of the First Judicial District Court, Caddo Parish, Louisiana, naming River Bay Corporation and Marlan Baucum as defendants therein. This lawsuit seeks an injunction and stay of all judicial and extra-judicial proceedings pursuant to the Put Agreement until such time as the arbitration is completed. This action was removed by the defendants to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, Shreveport Division in Civil Action No. 97-0578. In connection with an auto accident in July 1996, two suits have been filed against the Company. Ryan O'Neil Youmans & Anita Youmans v. American 3CI, et al, No. CV9604899, was filed in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County, Alabama, in August 1996. Jimmy R. Whitfield & Rhonda Whitfield v. Paul Bronger, American 3CI, et al. No. CV-96-847, was filed in the Circuit Court of Shelby County, Alabama in November of 1996. These proceedings have just been initiated and little or no discovery has been conducted. Although the Company's insurer has acknowledged that it provides coverage for this accident, the outcome of this cannot be predicted. An adverse decision in the lawsuit is not likely to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and net cash flows. In response, on April 9, 1997 Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank, assignees of certain rights under the Purchase Agreement, commenced a complaint for declaratory and monetary relief in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, Jackson Division in Civil Action No. 3:97cv249BN. The Smith County Bank and Bank of Raleigh have prayed declaratory judgment declaring the arbitration provision in the Purchase Agreement to be not binding upon said banks, declaratory judgement declaring the claims of 3CI against River Bay to be subordinate to the claims of the banks, for unspecified compensatory damages and for punitive damages of at least $1,000,000.00. The District Court has stayed this action as well, pending arbitration. As of June 30, 1997, the Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank have collected $104,000 of the Company's accounts receivables that were pledged in the initial agreement. An adverse decision in the lawsuit is not likely to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and net cash flows. The Company is subject to certain other litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management of the Company, the amounts ultimately payable, if any, as a result of such claims and assessment will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's financial position, result of operations or net cash flows except where noted above. 13 15 Item 2.
