¹The initial Schedule 13G (the "Initial 13G") to which this Amendment No. 2 relates was filed by Aon, using its SEC CIK identification number, on behalf of itself and Fiduciary Counselors, with the SEC on July 22, 2002. Subsequent to the filing of the Initial 13G, it was determined that Fiduciary Counselors' SEC CIK identification number would be more appropriate to use for the filing of any amendments to the Initial 13G because it is the entity that had the relationship with the Issuer (as described below). Therefore, this Amendment No. 2, is being filed by Fiduciary Counselors, using its SEC CIK identification number, on behalf of itself and Aon. Amendment No. 1 to the Initial 13G was also filed using Fiduciary Counselors' SEC CIK identification number.

On June 28, 2002, US Airways Group, Inc. ("US Airways") engaged Fiduciary Counselors as an independent fiduciary to manage (i) the respective US Airways Common Stock Funds (the "Funds") which are investment options in the US Airways, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan, the US Airways, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan for Pilots, the US Airways, Inc. Employee Savings Plan and the Supplemental Retirement Plan of Piedmont Aviation, Inc. and (ii) the shares of US Airways common stock held in the US Airways Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP"). Fiduciary Counselor's engagement as independent fiduciary terminated on June 16, 2003.

²Pursuant to US Airways' Chapter 11 bankruptcy plan of reorganization, which was confirmed by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Alexandria Division, on March 18, 2003, all of the shares of Common Stock held in the Funds and the ESOP were cancelled as of March 31, 2003.
