A copy of the merger agreement is attached as Appendix A to the proxy statement that was previously filed as Exhibit(a)(i) to Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13E-3. This final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) as the final Amendment to Schedule 13E-3 to report the results of the transaction contemplated by the merger agreement. On Tuesday, February 24, 2004, at a special meeting of the shareholders of the Company, the shareholders approved and adopted the merger agreement and the merger contemplated thereby. The Company and merger subsidiary subsequently filed Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Tennessee and the merger became effective at 5:00 pm, Eastern Time, on February 27, 2004 ("Effective Time"). Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, each share of the Company's common stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Company stock"), held by a shareholder who owned, as of the Effective Time, fewer than 250 shares of Company stock, was converted into the right to receive $22.75 in cash from the Company. The Company has arranged with Registrar & Transfer Company, Roselle, New Jersey, the Company's transfer agent, for letters of transmittal and other appropriate documents to be mailed promptly to all such shareholders. As a result of the merger, there are now fewer than 300 holders of record of Company stock. The Company issued a press release on February 27, 2004 announcing the consummation of the merger. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K filed by the Company on March 2, 2004.
