("Parent"), BMCA Acquisition Sub Inc. ("Offeror") and Elk, as well as the refinancing of certain of BMCA's and Elk's respective indebtedness (the "Refinancing"), BMCA is providing certain information about itself and Elk to potential lenders that is not now publicly available. The information included herein and in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 hereto shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. BMCA cannot assure you that the information concerning BMCA and Elk following the Acquisition will not change and that any such changes will not be significant. Furthermore, BMCA cannot assure you that the combined company will be able to realize the cost savings, synergies or revenue enhancements that BMCA projects following the Acquisition, either in the amount or the time frame that BMCA projects. This report may include "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements inherently involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual future results and occurrences to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Some of these risks and uncertainties include factors relating to: o the accuracy of BMCA management's assessment of the current status of Elk's business; o the accuracy of the basis of forecasts relating to Elk; o the difficulty of integrating the corporate and administrative1 infrastructures of BMCA and Elk; o the potential disruption of both companies' businesses; o the effect of the announcement of the Acquisition on both BMCA's and Elk's business relationships and otherwise maintaining existing relationships with customers and suppliers of the combined company; o the diversion of management's attention and other resources; o the process of integrating may be more complex and require a longer time frame to achieve a successful integration; o the difficulty of coordinating geographically separate organizations; o the failure to retain key employees; o higher than expected severance costs related to staff reductions; o higher than expected retention costs for employees that will be retained; and o the effects of changes in the market for raw materials required by the combined company or increases in energy and/or transportation costs. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. 3 ITEM 9.01. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.
