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. Additionally, in February 1994, WSI purchased 1,255,182 shares of 3CI common stock ("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, 1997, 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 ("River Bay"). The 565,500 shares that remain issued in connection with the acquisition of River Bay have been excluded from weighted average shares outstanding. 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. (3) BUSINESS CONDITIONS The Company has consistently suffered losses for the past several fiscal years, and losses have continued in fiscal 1998. As of December 31, 1997, the Company has a working capital deficit of $6,476,395, but a positive shareholders equity of $1,834,354. The Company has historically relied on WSI, the Company's majority stockholder, for funding, and such support was again necessary in fiscal 1997. In the absence of the Company being able to secure third party financing, WSI agreed to provide the Company with a Revolving Credit Facility of $8 million under the Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995, which provides for deferred interest with cash advances not to exceed $7.4 6 7 million, of which $4.8 million including deferred interest and $4.9 million including deferred interest has been drawn as of September 30, 1997, and December 31, 1997. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996, WSI made additional cash advances that have were in excess of the principal in the original Promissory Note, and 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 Promissory Note shall evidence all sums owing by 3CI to WSI to the extent that such sums represent advances of funds to 3CI in excess of the maximum limits fixed under that certain $8,000,000 Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995. The Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995 had a due date of December 31, 1996 of which the Company has requested from and received an extension to discuss with WSI the possibility of restructuring the terms of such Promissory Note. 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 these requirements, the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. allowed the Company to remain listed with an exception added to its trading symbol. The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. gave the Company until June 25, 1997, to meet the listing requirements. In June 1997, WSI converted $7,000,000 of debt into 1,000,000 shares of 3CI preferred stock. This conversion allowed the Company to meet the listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. On June 26, 1997, the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. informed the Company that it had been found to be in compliance with all requirements necessary to for continued listing on the exchange, the exception to its trading symbol had been removed. In connection with the conversion of debt to preferred stock, WSI canceled 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. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 WSI has made cash advances to the Company of $2,303,000, $4,000,000 and $4,100,000. Since the year ended September 30, 1997, the Company has not requested nor received any cash advances from WSI. WSI is under no obligation to provide additional advances and could demand payment on the debt at any time. During the fiscal year of 1997 and continuing into fiscal 1998, the Company has begun to have discussions with third party lenders to obtain an alternative source of financing apart from WSI. In the event the Company and WSI do not come to a resolution on the restructuring of the September 30, 1995 Promissory Note 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 this industry have remained at a high level for several years. This condition has produced aggressive price competition and results in pressure on profit margins. The Company competes against companies which may 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 shareholders 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, 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, 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 that the resolution of this matter, including attorneys fees incurred in the Company's defense could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition. However, the outcome of this cannot be predicted, and 7 8 an adverse decision in the lawsuit would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations and cash flows. The Company has reached an agreement in principle with some, but not all, of the plaintiffs for the settlement of this action. The execution of the appropriate documentation to evidence this settlement has been completed and both parties are awaiting court approval which is set for late February 1998. The Company and Mr. Grafton reached a settlement of Mr. Grafton's individual claims relating to his removal as an officer and director of the Company. The terms of the settlement reached between the Company and Mr. Grafton are confidential to both parties. The Company accrued an amount in its fiscal year ended 1996 and 1995 financial statements which closely approximates the actual settlement. In June 1995, the former stockholders of Med-Waste Disposal Service, Inc. ("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 Springs 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 attorneys' fees. The case was transferred to the United States District Court of the Western District of Arkansas, Hot Springs Division and in November 1996 was subsequently transferred to the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana. The parties, other than Patrick Grafton, former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, have agreed to settle the suit in consideration of 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 per share over a period of 42 consecutive days. 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. This matter has been settled by the parties and was dismissed in its entirety on July 31, 1997, by order of the court. 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 been settled by the Company's insurance carrier and the related expenditure to the Company are reflected in the current year financial statements. The resolution to these lawsuits did not a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. On or about March 10, 1997, the Company commenced arbitration proceedings before the American Arbitration Association in Houston, Texas, against River Bay Corporation ("River Bay") and Marlan Baucum seeking to set aside a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") entered into between those parties on or about October 10, 1994, together with ancillary agreements pertaining thereto. The company was seeking damages and/or to set aside the Purchase Agreement and collateral agreements, including a Put Option Agreement (the "Put Option Agreement") which, if otherwise enforceable, would require the payment by the Company of approximately $1,700,000 for 565,500 shares of 3CI common stock. 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 a 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 Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank have prayed declaratory judgment declaring the arbitration provision in the Purchase Agreement to be not binding upon the said banks,the claims of 3CI against River Bay to be subordinate to the claims of the banks, unspecified compensatory damages and punitive damages for least $1,000,000. In this action the Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank proceeded to collect the Company's accounts receivable in the River Bay division as it was used as collateral in the Purchase Agreement, they collected approximately $463,000, through October 14, 8 9 1997. 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 and Marlan Baucum as defendants therein. This lawsuit seeks an injunction and stay of all judicial and extra-judicial proceedings pursuant to the Put Option 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. The parties have agreed to settle the suit in consideration of the Company repurchasing the remaining 565,500 shares of Common Stock related to the Put Option Agreement. The outcome of this lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, result 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 litigation and claims will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, and net cash flows. The Company operates within the regulated medical waste disposal industry which is subject to intense governmental regulation at the federal, state and local levels. The Company believes it is currently in compliance in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations governing the medical waste disposal business. However, continuing expenditures may be required in order for the Company to remain in compliance with existing and changing regulations. Furthermore, because the medical waste disposal industry is predicated upon the existence of strict governmental regulation, any material relaxation of regulatory requirements governing medical waste disposal or of their enforcement could result in a reduced demand for the Company's services and have a material adverse effect on the Company's revenues and financial condition. The scope and duration of existing and future regulations affecting the medical waste disposal industry cannot be anticipated and are subject to changing political and economic pressures. 9 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 December 31, ------------------ 1997 1996 ------- ------- Revenues $ 4,600 $ 4,674 Cost of services 3,437 3,500 Depreciation and amortization 295 358 Selling, General, and Administrative Expense 768 837 Net Income (loss) from operations 100 (21) Other Income (expense), net (223) (324) Net income (loss) (123) (345) THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996: Revenues: Revenues for the three month period ended December 31, 1997, decreased to $4,673,658 from revenues for the three month period ended December 31, 1996 of $4,743,054. This decrease in revenue of $73,124 or 1.6%, is primarily attributable to a reduction in third party incineration revenue. During the quarter the Company increased its direct collection revenue by 2.4%, while reducing the dependency of outside third party providers by 3.8%. The industry continues to experience a downward pressure in pricing caused by competitors attempting to gain market share through deep discount pricing. COSTS OF SERVICES: Cost of services decreased $62,792, or 1.8%, to $3,437,167 for the three month period ended December 31, 1997, compared to $3,499,959 for the three month period ended December 31, 1996. The decrease was due to lower transportation costs (a reduction of $8,763), the Company's reduced dependence on third party incineration facilities (a reduction of $44,782) and the conversion of existing large customers from cardboard containers to multi-use reusable containers (a reduction of $9,247). SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES ("SG&A"): Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended December 31, 1997 decreased to $767,959 compared to $836,970 for the three month period ended December 31, 1996. The $69,011 decrease was due to lower salaries (a reduction of $13,015), contract labor (a reduction of $41,573), and employee overtime (a reduction of $14,423). As a percentage of revenue, the expenses for the 1997 period improved to 16.7% compared to 17.9% for the period ended December 31, 1996. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION expense for the three months ended December 31, 1997 decreased to $294,979 compared to $357,923 for the three months ended December 31, 1996. INTEREST EXPENSE decreased to $149,624 for the three month period ended December 31, 1997 from $250,620 for the three month ended December 31, 1996, primarily due to the debt conversion of the majority shareholders promissory note to preferred shares, as described in the financing activities. 10 11 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OPERATING ACTIVITIES: The Company anticipates a working 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 payment of current indebtedness, the Company would have limited financing sources and would likely be forced to seek bankruptcy protection. INVESTING ACTIVITIES: During the first fiscal quarter 1998, the Company invested $262,000 for transportation, machinery and equipment, computer equipment and software, and other fixed assets. FINANCING ACTIVITIES: The Company has historically funded its operations, acquisitions and debt service through cash advances from WSI. During fiscal 1994, advances of $3,100,000 and $4,671,973 were converted to 666,670 and 1,557,324 shares of common stock. 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. The note bears interest at the prime rate and was payable on December 31, 1996. Interest is payable in quarterly installments which is automatically added to the outstanding principal balance, if not paid. As of September 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995, the Company has borrowed $4,844,217, $8,843,000 and $4,100,000 respectively under the note. See note 5 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. As a significant amount of the advances from WSI have historically been non interest bearing, some of which were ultimately converted to equity, interest expense in 1997 and 1996 has increased significantly as a result of the advances made pursuant to the interest bearing note. During the fiscal year of 1996, the Company received cash advances in excess of the Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995. Due to the additional cash advances that were 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 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 represent 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 had a due date of December 31, 1996, of which the Company has requested each month a waiver and extension of this note repayment to restructure the terms of the Revolving Promissory Note. 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 11 12 $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 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 the 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. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 WSI has made cash advances to the Company of $2,303,000, $4,000,000 and $4,100,000. Since the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997 and continuing into the first quarter ending December 31, 1997, the Company has not requested nor received any cash advances from WSI. As the Company, has not been able to repay its' indebtedness to WSI as per the original Promissory Note dated September 30, 1995, it has requested and received extensions and waivers on a monthly basis from WSI, so that the Company and WSI could restructure the Promissory Note. WSI is under no obligation to provide additional advances and could demand payment on the debt at any time. During the fiscal year of 1997 and into the fiscal year 1998, the Company has begun to have discussions with third party lenders to obtain an alternative source of financing apart from WSI. In the event the Company and WSI do not come to a resolution on the restructuring of the note 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. During the first quarter ending December 31, 1997, the Company has repaid approximately $179,731 of its notes payable and approximately $344,685 of its long-term debt that became due during the quarter. During the first quarter of the fiscal year 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to 150,000 shares of 3CI common stock from time to time in the open market. Since the authorization by the board of Directors, the Company has repurchased 3,000 shares at cost of $4,065 as of December 31, 1997, and an additional 3,000 shares for $3,042 as of February 9, 1998. 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 pressures 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 majority shareholder 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. 12 13 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 all potential losses related to these matters. However, the outcome of this minority shareholder litigation cannot be predicted, and an adverse decision in the lawsuit would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations and cash flows. The Company has reached an agreement in principle with some, but not all, with the plaintiffs for the settlement of this action. The execution of the appropriate documentation to evidence this settlement has been completed and both parties are awaiting court approval. The Company and Mr. Grafton reached a settlement of Mr. Grafton's individual claims relating to his removal as an officer and director of the Company. The terms of the settlement reached between the Company and Mr. Grafton are confidential to both parties. The Company accrued an amount in the fiscal year ended 1995 financial statements which closely approximates the actual 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 was transferred to the United States District Court of the Western District of Arkansas, Hot Springs Division and in November 1996 was subsequently transferred to the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana. 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. 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. This matter has been settles and was dismissed in its entirety on July 31, 1997, by order of the court. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, the Company has made payments totaling approximately $193,000 and $248,000, respectively, to the plaintiffs, related to this agreement. 13 14 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 been settled by the Company's insurance carrier and the related expenditure to the Company are reflected in the current year financial statements. The resolution to these lawsuits did not a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. 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. The Company was seeking damages and/or to set aside the Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement")and ancillary agreements, including a Put Option Agreement (the "Put Option Agreement") entered in connection with the acquisition of assets from River Bay Corporation. If otherwise enforceable, the Put Option Agreement would have required the payment by the Company of approximately $1,700,000 for 565,500 shares of 3CI common stock. The arbitration proceeding was subsequently amended to include the Bank of Raleigh and Smith County Bank, assignees of certain rights under the Purchase Agreement, because through an independent legal action such banks were able to collect approximately $463,000 of the Company's accounts receivable that were used as collateral under the Purchase Agreement. In settlement of the arbitration, the Company agreed to repurchase the remaining 565,500 shares of common stock in consideration of $861,000, of which, $100,000 was payable immediately and $761,000 is payable in monthly installments of $63,450, with the final payment due December 1, 1998. 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 assessments will not have materially adverse effect on the Company's financial position, result of operations or net cash flows except where noted above.
