SEAWAY TLC INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
(Tabular amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars)
 
1.        Significant accounting policies:
 
(a)       Basis of presentation:
 
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Seaway TLC Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Stablex Canada Inc. and Gulfstream TLC Inc. from their respective dates of acquisition. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”) and are prepared in Canadian dollars. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been reconciled to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) in note 9. All intercompany balances and transactions between these companies have been eliminated. On August 16, 2005 the Company’s assets and liabilities were comprehensively re-valued as a result of applying push-down accounting. The revaluation adjustment of $25,837,000 was classified as contributed surplus. The preparation of financial data is based on accounting policies and practices consistent with those used in the preparation of the audited annual consolidated financial statements. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the disclosures required by Canadian generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements and accordingly should be read together with the audited annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s 2009 audited financial statements.
 
2.        Seasonality of the business:
 
The revenue generated by the Company may be affected by seasonal variation of customer activities, generally peaking during the summer.
 
3.         Subsequent Event
 
On October 31, 2010, all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company were sold to US Ecology, Inc. for proceeds of $80 million subject to normal closing adjustments.

(a)       Promissory Note - Marsulex Inc.:
 
On June 17, 2008, Stablex Canada Inc. obtained a demand promissory note for $27,800,000 from Marsulex Inc. Seaway TLC Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Marsulex Inc. The promissory note bears interest at 9.2% per annum. Stablex has the right and privilege of paying the whole or any portion of the principal amount of this promissory note from time to time remaining unpaid and outstanding at any time or times. Under the terms of the promissory note, interest shall accrue daily and be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 365 days or 366 days as the case may be, and shall be payable monthly, in arrears, on the first business day of each and every month. Overdue interest bears interest at the same rate as the principal amount.
 
Interest commitments on the loan are $2,557,600 per annum until the loan is paid in full.
 
The fair value of the outstanding balance of this debt at September 30, 2010 is approximately $27,800,000 as the note is due on demand and an active market does not exist for this instrument.
 
As at December 31, 2009, the outstanding balance of this debt was classified as long-term on the basis that Marsulex Inc. confirmed that it was not their intention to demand repayment in 2010. Effective October 31, 2010, immediately prior to the closing of the sale of the Company to US Ecology, Inc., the promissory note was settled in accordance with the terms of the purchase and sale agreement with US Ecology, Inc. by way of a capital contribution through contributed surplus of $27,800,000 by Marsulex Inc. On the same date, immediately prior to the closing of the sale of the Company to US Ecology, Inc., the Company also declared a dividend of $2,869,394. The dividend payable was settled through a reduction of outstanding net intercompany balances due from Marsulex Inc. and subsidiaries of the same amount.
