Report of Independent Auditors

To the Board of Directors and Stockholder of

R360 Environmental Solutions, Inc.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholder’s equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of R360 Environmental Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In December 2010, the Company acquired Claco Services LLC (“Claco”). Claco provides solids control equipment (“Clack Units”) to drilling companies in the New Mexico Permian Basin. The Clack Units remove suspended solids from heavy brine that is used as drilling fluid for drilling rigs.

In July 2011, the Company acquired certain assets of J. Scott, Inc. (“J. Scott”). The J. Scott facility is a commercial exploration and production waste disposal facility located in El Reno, Oklahoma. The facility is permitted to dispose of all exploration and production waste streams.

In June 2012, the Company acquired Prairie Disposal LLC and Prairie Liquids LLC (collectively, “Prairie). Prairie provides commercial exploration and production waste management services in the Williston Basin of North Dakota through a disposal facility capable of accepting solid and liquid exploration and production waste streams.

On December 29, 2011, the Company, R3 Treatment Holdings, Inc. (“R3”), the Company’s parent, and certain other subsidiaries of the Company completed a Reorganization (the “Reorganization”) whereby ownership of certain subsidiaries of the Company were contributed to R360 Operating Partners, L.P. (“OLP”), a newly formed Delaware limited partnership, in exchange for 8,973 common units and 290,127 preferred units. The Company serves as OLP’s general partner. The transfer of assets by the Company and its subsidiaries to OLP in December 2011 was accounted for as transactions between entities under common control. The assets transferred were recorded at the Company’s carrying amount at the date of transfer and the Company continued all historical accounting and reporting of the transferred operations since inception under the Company’s original ownership.

On the date of the Reorganization, R3 purchased options (the “Options”) on the 8,973 common units of OLP and certain other subsidiaries of the Company in exchange for notes receivable from R3. The Options entitle the holder to purchase the 8,973 common units of OLP at an exercise price of $1,000 per unit, which at the date of the Reorganization represented approximately 3% of the equity value of the Company. The fair value of the Options was valued at $1,778 using a Black-Scholes pricing model and recorded in additional paid-in capital at the date of purchase with the corresponding notes receivable recorded as contra equity. R3 subsequently distributed the Options to all of its shareholders. The Options, which were exercisable at the election of a majority of the shareholders of R3 any time prior to December 29, 2012, were exercised in April 2012 in exchange for notes receivable totaling $8,973,000 (unaudited), which were recorded as contra equity.

Following the exercise of the Options, the Company, R3 and OLP remained under common control. The Company, through its consolidated subsidiaries, owned 100% of the preferred units, representing 97% of the value of OLP upon their issuance. The Company no longer owned 100% of OLP, as all of the common units in OLP became held by entities outside of the Company’s consolidated group.

The Company is consolidating the operations of OLP in its consolidated financial statements and accounting for the ownership of the common units, representing 3% of the value of OLP upon their issuance, as noncontrolling interests in its consolidated financial statements. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is calculated based on taxable income, as defined in the partnership agreement.

On September 16, 2012, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with WCI Holdings, Inc. (WCI), a wholly owned subsidiary of Waste Connections, Inc., pursuant to which WCI agreed to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests in certain entities that, together with the operating subsidiaries of such entities, hold the Company’s business. The aggregate purchase price for the acquisition, which closed on October 25, 2012, was approximately $1.35 billion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 AND 2011 (UNAUDITED), YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND PERIOD FROM MAY 5, 2010 (DATE OF INCEPTION) THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2010

 

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements reflect the consolidated operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements as of September 30, 2012 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 or 2010.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been provided, the price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue at the time the waste is accepted as the customer has passed the legal and regulatory responsibility and associated risk of disposing the waste to the Company.

By Product Revenues

The Company recognizes by product revenues from the sale of oil skimmed from waste received as well as the sale of a product created using processed waste as road-based material. Revenue is recognized upon the sale of the by product.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. The Company controls credit risk through credit evaluations, credit limits, and monitoring procedures. No single customer balance represents 10% or more of total accounts receivable as of September 30, 2012 (unaudited) and December 31, 2011 and 2010. One customer represents more than 10% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and for the year ended December 31, 2011. No customer represents more than 10% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 (unaudited) or the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010. The Company has concentrations of credit risk due to reliance on the oil and gas industry as well as the geographic concentrations of operations in Louisiana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Texas and Wyoming.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company extends credit to customers in the normal course of business. Trade receivables consist of uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment within 30 days of the invoice date. Management regularly reviews outstanding accounts receivable, and provides for estimated losses through an allowance for doubtful accounts. In evaluating the level of established reserves, management makes judgments regarding the parties’ ability to make required payments, economic events, and other factors. As the financial conditions of these parties change, circumstances develop or additional information becomes available, adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts may be required. When deemed uncollectible, the customer receivable is charged against the allowance. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $896,000 (unaudited), $452,000 and $121,000 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Improvements or betterments which significantly extend the life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. The cost of assets retired or otherwise disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts in the year of disposal. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Debt Issuance Costs

Costs directly associated with obtaining the credit agreement including origination fees, broker fees, legal expenses, and other professional fees are capitalized and amortized on the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method over the credit facility term. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, amortization expense was $1,478,000 (unaudited) and $1,102,000 (unaudited), respectively. Amortization expense was $1,538,000 and $640,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities are reported on a fair value basis. Fair value is used on a recurring basis for certain assets and liabilities in which fair value is the primary basis of accounting. Additionally, fair value is used on a nonrecurring basis to evaluate assets for impairment or as required for disclosure purposes by applicable accounting guidance on disclosures about fair value of financial instruments. Depending on the nature of the assets and liabilities, various valuation techniques and assumptions are used when estimating fair value.

Fair value is the price that could be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value requires that a number of significant judgments are made. In general, fair values of financial instruments are based upon quoted market prices, where available.

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and equivalents, trade receivables, notes receivable, trade payables, contingent consideration and debt instruments. As of September, 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010, the carrying values of cash and equivalents, trade receivables, notes receivable and trade payables are considered to be representative of their respective fair values. The fair value of the Company’s debt was approximately $256,000,000 (unaudited), $168,000,000 and $116,000,000 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of consideration paid over the fair value of net assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. The Company is required to test goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis and, if current events or circumstances require, on an interim basis. The Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount to determine if there is potential goodwill impairment. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the fair value of the goodwill within the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of the goodwill.

Intangible assets include permits, customer relationships, trademarks and technology. The Company’s permits are required to operate the treatment facilities and may have either indefinite or finite lives depending on the useful life at the facilities and types of operations. Annual renewal costs for permits are insignificant and are included in cost of sales in the statement of operations. Customer relationships, trademarks and technology are amortized, using the straight-line method or a pattern in which the assets’ economic benefits are consumed. Finite-lived permits are amortized using the units of consumption method. Under this method, amortization is recorded for the percentage of waste received in relation to the total estimated capacity of the permitted site.

Long-Lived Assets

When events, circumstances and/or operating results indicate that the carrying values of certain long-lived assets might be impaired, the Company prepares projections of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the projections indicate that the recorded amounts are not expected to be recoverable, such amounts are reduced to estimated fair value. Fair value is estimated based upon internal evaluation of each asset that includes quantitative analyses of net revenue and cash flows, review of recent sales of similar assets and market responses based upon discussions in connection with offers received from potential buyers.

Transaction Costs

Transaction costs consist of third-party and indirect acquisition costs, including legal and professional fees, costs associated with a withdrawn initial public offering and costs associated with the sale of the Company to WCI.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company commenced an initial public offering for the issuance of securities to be traded on a public exchange. The initial public offering was withdrawn and cancelled as a result of the sale of the Company to WCI. The Company incurred $2,191,000 (unaudited) of costs associated with the withdrawn initial public offering.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company incurred $4,073,000 (unaudited) of costs associated with the sale of the Company to WCI. The Company incurred $374,000 (unaudited) of costs related to the acquisition of Prairie during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, $194,000 of costs related to the acquisition of J. Scott during the year ended December 31, 2011 and $14,209,000 of costs related to the acquisitions of OHI, CRI, Calpet, and Claco in the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010.

Income Taxes

The Company files a consolidated tax return with its parent, the ultimate payer of taxes to the IRS. The Company is also responsible for direct payments to certain states. The Company utilizes the asset and liability method for income taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, all expected future events other than enactments of changes in tax laws or rates are considered.

The Company determines whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the tax amount recognized, if any, in the consolidated financial statements is reduced by the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant taxing authority.

Contingent consideration

Contingent consideration represents the fair value of amounts due to the sellers of the Company’s acquisitions under contingent consideration provisions as well as contractual payments. Contingent consideration is evaluated at each balance sheet date for changes in conditions requiring such payments as well as the passage of time.

Cell Processing Reserves

The Company records a cell processing reserve for certain locations in Louisiana and Texas for the estimated amount of expenses to be incurred upon the treatment and excavation of oilfield waste received. The cell processing reserve is the future cost to properly treat and dispose of existing waste within the cells at the various facilities. The reserve generally covers estimated costs to be incurred over a period of time up to twenty-four months, with the current portion representing costs estimated to be incurred in the next twelve months. The estimate is calculated based on current estimated volume in the cells, estimated percentage of waste treated, and historical average costs to treat and excavate the waste. The processing reserve represents the estimated costs to process the volumes of oilfield waste on-hand for which revenue has been recognized. The current portion of cell processing reserves totaling $6,088,000 (unaudited), $6,484,000 and $4,218,000 are included in Accrued liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of

September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The long-term portion of cell processing reserves totaling $2,061,000 (unaudited), $2,159,000 and $1,652,000 are included in Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Closure and Remediation Reserves

Closure reserves (also referred to as “asset retirement obligations”) are legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets. These liabilities are initially recorded at fair value and the related asset retirement costs are capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related assets by the same amount as the liability. Asset retirement costs are subsequently depreciated over the useful lives of the related assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Company records period-to-period changes in the asset retirement obligation liability resulting from the passage of time and revisions to either the timing or the amount of the original estimate of undiscounted cash flows. The Company derecognizes asset retirement obligation liabilities when the related obligations are settled. Closure reserves totaling $123,000 (unaudited) and $123,000 are included in Accrued liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Closure reserves totaling $1,582,000 (unaudited), $1,221,000 and $443,000 are included in Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Company expenses costs incurred to investigate and remediate environmental issues unless they extend the economic useful life of related assets. The Company records liabilities when it is probable that an obligation has been incurred and the amounts can be reasonably estimated. The remediation reserves cover anticipated costs, including remediation of environmental damage that waste facilities may have caused to neighboring landowners or residents as a result of contamination of soil, groundwater or surface water, including damage resulting from conditions existing prior to the acquisition of such facilities by the Company. The Company’s estimates are based primarily on investigations and remediation plans established by independent consultants, regulatory agencies and potentially responsible third parties. The Company does not discount remediation obligations. The current portion of remediation reserves totaling $892,000 (unaudited) and $892,000 are included in Accrued liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The long-term portion of remediation reserves totaling $1,481,000 (unaudited), $1,591,000 and $892,000 are included in Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Out-of-Period Adjustments

The Company recorded adjustments during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to correct the following errors in its 2011 and 2010 financial statements:

 

   

The Company’s customer relationships were historically amortized using the straight line method. Approximately $5,600,000 of the Company’s $40,200,000 in customer relationships at December 31, 2011 should have been amortized over a more accelerated method. If corrected in periods in which the errors occurred, the Company would have recorded approximately $361,000 of additional amortization expense in 2011 and $51,000 of additional amortization expense in 2010.

 

   

All the Company’s permits acquired in 2011 and 2010 were classified as indefinite-lived intangibles. Approximately $27,000,000 of these permits should have been classified as finite-lived intangibles and amortized using the units of consumption method. If corrected in the periods in which the errors occurred, the Company would have recorded approximately $602,000 of additional amortization expense in 2011 and $228,000 of additional amortization expense in 2010.

 

   

In connection with its July 2010 acquisition, the Company agreed to pay the former owners of OHI additional consideration contingent on certain future events. The Company did not accurately measure or record the fair value of the resulting contingent consideration liability during 2011 and 2010. If corrected in the periods in which the errors occurred, the increases in the contingent consideration liability would have resulted in additional operating expenses of $246,000 in 2011 and $542,000 in 2010.

If corrected, these errors would have reduced net income by $1,209,000 in 2011 and increased net loss by $821,000 in 2010. The Company corrected these errors in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 by recording additional expenses of $2,030,000 that related to prior periods.

The Company does not believe these adjustments are material individually or in the aggregate to its interim consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, nor does it believe such adjustments, if recorded, would have been material to either the year ended December 31, 2011 or the period from May 5, 2010 (date of inception) through December 31, 2010.

New accounting standards

Goodwill Impairment. In September 2011, the FASB issued guidance on testing goodwill for impairment. The guidance provides entities an option to perform a “qualitative” assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a significant impact on its financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

Impairment of Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets. In July 2012, the FASB issued guidance on testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. The guidance provides entities an option to perform a “qualitative” assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. This guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. However, an entity can choose to early adopt, provided that the entity has not yet performed its 2012 annual impairment test or issued its financial statements. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a significant impact on its financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

 

2. RECLASSIFICATION

Certain amounts reported in the Company’s prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2012 presentation.

 

3. ACQUISITIONS

The Company has recorded an allocation of the purchase price to an acquired company’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the dates of acquisition. Goodwill has been recorded based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net assets acquired. The goodwill recognized is representative of expected synergies of combining the operations of the acquired companies. Goodwill recognized on acquisitions of members’ units is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The allocation of the purchase price to intangible assets, including permits, customer relationships and trademarks, was based on valuations performed to determine the fair value of such assets as of the acquisition dates.

Prairie

On June 4, 2012, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Prairie Disposal LLC and Prairie Liquids, LLC (“Prairie”). Prairie provides exploration and production (“E&P”) waste management services in the Williston Basin of North Dakota through a disposal facility capable of accepting solid and liquid E&P wastes. The Company recorded total consideration of $112,488,000 (unaudited), which consisted of $78,775,000 (unaudited) in cash, a $10,000,000 (unaudited) secured promissory note at 8% interest rate due June 4, 2016 and $23,713,000 (unaudited) representing the fair value of up to $25,000,000 of contingent consideration payable based on the future achievement of certain milestones over a two-year period. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using probability assessments of the expected future cash flows over the two-year period in which the obligation is expected to be settled, and applied a discount rate of 3.25% that appropriately captures a market participant’s view of the risk associated with the obligation. Subsequent changes to the valuation are recorded through earnings. This fair value is based upon significant inputs not observable in the market and therefore represents a Level 3 measurement. The results of operations of Prairie have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from its acquisition date.

The amortization period of customer relationships is 12 years. The amortization of finite-lived permits is recorded using the units of consumption method based upon an estimated capacity at date of acquisition which approximates 24 years. The goodwill is attributable to the assembled workforce and the synergies and growth opportunities expected to arise after the Company’s acquisition of Prairie. The goodwill acquired is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The amounts above represent a preliminary allocation of the purchase price subject to finalization of post-closing procedures, which may result in further adjustments to the values.

J. Scott

On July 25, 2011 the Company acquired the assets of J. Scott for a purchase price of $14,797,000. The J. Scott facility is a commercial exploration and production waste disposal facility located in El Reno, Oklahoma.

Contingent consideration for Calpet is based on the achievement of revenue and earnings targets through September 30, 2013 as well as for expansion of the existing facilities and can range from $0 to $11,500,000. This contingent consideration was estimated by management based on current earnings’ forecasts, operating rates and the likelihood of facilities expansion. The expected consideration was discounted to present value at the acquisition date using a discount rate of 2.5% and is reevaluated at each balance sheet date (Refer to Note 10). Deferred consideration for CRI was payable to the former owners upon the earlier of 30 days after the completion of the Company’s audit for the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010 or June 30, 2011.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company reassessed $27,149,000 of indefinite-lived permit intangible assets and has determined they should have been finite-lived. The classification of the permit intangible assets was corrected as of September 30, 2012 (see Note 1, “Out-of-Period Adjustments”). They are being amortized using the units of consumption method.

Amortization expense was $8,392,000 (unaudited), which includes $1,241,000 that should have been recorded during 2010 and 2011 (see Note 1, “Out of Period Adjustments”), $2,174,000 (unaudited), $2,999,000 and $1,111,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the year ended December 31, 2011 and the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010, respectively. Estimated amortization expense for each of the next five years as of September 30, 2012 (unaudited) is as follows (in thousands):

In 2012, the Company rebranded all acquired facilities to a single brand strategy under the R360 Environmental Solutions name. As a result, the Company reevaluated trademarks acquired prior to 2012, considering their value as a defensive asset, and prospectively changed the remaining useful life to two years.

There were no impairment losses on goodwill or indefinite-lived intangibles during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 (unaudited), the year ended December 31, 2011 or the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010.

Prior to the formation of OLP, deferred taxes assets and liabilities included temporary differences that were calculated as the tax effect of the book versus tax basis in the underlying asset or liability. Deferred taxes were presented as current or non-current based on the underlying asset or liability to which the deferred tax item related. In connection with the formation of OLP, the Company transferred its operating assets and liabilities to OLP at their historical book and tax basis. The deferred taxes at September 30, 2012 are measured based on the difference between the book basis of the investment in partnership and its tax basis as well as the difference between certain transaction costs incurred by the Company.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits which are included as a component of other long-term liabilities. In addition to the unrecognized tax benefits, the Company had total accrued interest and penalties recognized as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010 of approximately $201,000 (unaudited), $131,000 and $52,000, respectively, recorded as a component of other long-term liabilities. The Company records those amounts in income tax expense.

The changes to unrecognized tax benefits for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the year ended December 31, 2011 and the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010 were as follows (in thousands):

The Company pays taxes in different jurisdictions, including the U.S. and certain U.S. states. Consequently, as the Company’s earnings fluctuate between taxing jurisdictions, its effective tax rate fluctuates. The Company’s federal and state returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities since inception. Currently, the Company is under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the tax period May 5, 2010 (Date of inception) through December 31, 2010.

On July 16, 2010, the Company entered into a credit agreement that consists of the following:

 

   

a $40,000,000 revolving credit facility, including a $20,000,000 letter of credit sub-facility, that expires on July 16, 2013,

 

   

a $60,000,000 Tranche A term loan facility with a maturity of January 12, 2015 and quarterly principal payments escalating from $1,875,000 to $3,750,000 by the maturity date. Accrued interest is due quarterly, and

 

   

a $60,000,000 Tranche B term loan facility with a maturity of July 16, 2015 and quarterly principal payments of $150,000. Accrued interest is due quarterly.

In 2011, the Company amended its credit agreement with the following modifications:

 

   

the revolving credit facility increased from $40,000,000 to $70,000,000, and was extended to expire on July 16, 2014, and

 

   

a newly originated $49,500,000 Tranche B-1 term loan facility with a maturity of July 16, 2015 with payments of 1% of the principal balance to be paid quarterly was issued. Accrued interest is due quarterly. No additional amounts may be borrowed under the term loan facility without future amendment to the facility.

In 2012, the Company further amended its credit agreement to increase the maximum borrowings under the revolving credit facility from $70,000,000 (unaudited) to $130,000,000 (unaudited).

The interest rates applicable to loans under the credit agreement are, at the Company’s option, equal to either the alternate base rate (ABR) or an adjusted LIBOR rate for a three-month interest period, with a floor rate that ranges between 1.25% and 2% plus an applicable margin percentage.

The base rate is the greater of (i) the prime rate in effect or (ii) one-half of 1% over the weighted average of the rates on overnight Federal funds transactions as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The adjusted LIBOR is based upon offered rates in the London interbank market. The applicable margin percentage is a percentage per annum equal to 5%, 5.5%, 4.75%, and 2.875% for ABR borrowings for Tranche A term loans, Tranche B term loans, the revolving credit facility, and Tranche B-1 term loans,

respectively, and 6%, 6.5%, 5.75%, and 3.875% for LIBOR borrowings for Tranche A term loans, Tranche B term loans, the revolving credit facility, and the Tranche B-1 term loans, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the average interest rate was 6.84% (unaudited). For the year ended December 31, 2011 and the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010, the average interest rate was 7.25% and 8.0%, respectively.

The credit agreement requires that the Company enter into derivative contracts with a notional amount of at least 50% of outstanding borrowings under Tranche A and Tranche B loans.

In September 2010, the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement with quarterly maturities through 2013. The agreement caps the interest payable under the credit agreement at rates ranging from 2% to 4% on notional amounts varying from $45,000,000 to $60,000,000. The fair value of the interest rate cap was insignificant at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010.

On the last business day of each calendar quarter, the Company is required to pay the lender a commitment fee for any unused commitment under the revolving credit facility. The commitment fee is equal to the average of the daily difference between (a) the Revolving Commitments and (b) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans plus the Letter of Credit Usage, times 1% per year.

Indebtedness under the credit agreement is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets, including a first priority pledge of the capital stock of the Company’s subsidiaries.

The credit agreement requires that the Company comply, on a quarterly basis, with certain financial covenants, including a fixed charge ratio of 1.1 to 1 and a maximum leverage ratio of 3.75 to 1 at December 31, 2011 and 2010 and 3.50 to 1 at September 30, 2012. The maximum leverage ratio declines to 3.25 to 1 over time. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of September 30, 2012 (unaudited) and December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Voluntary prepayments of loans under the credit agreement and voluntary reductions of revolving credit commitments are permitted, in whole or in part, in minimum amounts of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount without premium or penalty.

The credit agreement requires mandatory prepayments of term loans, subject to certain exceptions, in amounts equal to:

 

   

100% of the net cash proceeds from asset sales, except, in certain cases, when proceeds are reinvested by the Company within a specified period;

 

   

50% of the net cash proceeds from the issuance of certain equity securities by the Company;

 

   

50% of the net cash proceeds from the issuance of certain debt securities by the Company; and

 

   

50% (subject to reduction based upon the ratio of the Company’s total indebtedness to the Company’s consolidated EBITDA) of the Company’s annual excess cash flow.

No such payments were required during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the year ended December 31, 2011 or the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010.

All outstanding borrowings under the term loans and credit facility were repaid in full on October 25, 2012 in connection with the acquisition of the Company by WCI.

Note Payable

The Company issued a note payable to seller in the amount of $10,000,000, related to its acquisition of Prairie in June 2012. The note payable bears interest at 8% with quarterly payments and a maturity date of June 2016.

10. CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION

The changes to contingent consideration for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the year ended December 31, 2011 and the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010 were as follows (in thousands):

Changes in estimates are recorded as a charge due to remeasurement of contingent consideration in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The change in estimates during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 consisted of the accrual of $8,000,000 of contingent consideration related to the acquisition of OHI in 2010. The acquisition of OHI required the payment of additional contingent cash consideration up to $8,000,000 to the former owners of OHI if the Company subsequently completed a qualifying cash event, as defined in the purchase agreement. A qualifying cash event included a sale of the Company or an initial public offering that involved the issuance of securities to be traded on a public exchange. Payment of the contingent consideration required the qualifying cash event to generate a return on investment above a certain minimum threshold. Upon the closing of the acquisition of OHI, the Company assessed the probability of a qualifying cash event as remote and did not record a liability for the payment of contingent consideration. The Company did not adjust the initial valuation of the liability for contingent consideration during the periods ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, as the fair value of the contingency was assessed as zero (see Note 1, “Out-of-Period Adjustments”). As discussed in Note 1, on September 16, 2012, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with WCI, which subsequently closed on October 25, 2012. As a result of this event, the Company reassessed the fair value and recorded the maximum amount of $8,000,000.

The change in estimates during the year ended December 31, 2011 consisted of the net change in two contingencies. In 2011, the Company achieved an earnings target, related to the acquisition of Calpet, which was previously not expected and had not been recorded as a liability. As a result, a contingent payment of $2,500,000, discounted to present value, was recorded as of December 31, 2011, of which $2,030,000 (unaudited) was paid in 2012. In addition, due to engineering impediments, the Company no longer expects to expand certain Calpet facilities by the date which would have required a payment. The contingent payment of $2,500,000 related to the facility expansion, which was discounted to present value, was removed from liabilities as of December 31, 2011.

13. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

The Company sponsors a 401(k) retirement plan under which all employees may choose to invest a portion of their salary on a pretax basis, subject to certain IRS limits. The Company matches employee contributions on a discretionary basis. The plan also allows the Company to provide for a discretionary profit sharing contribution. Company contributions for the months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the year ended December 31, 2011 and the period from May 5, 2010 (Date of Inception) through December 31, 2010 were $178,000 (unaudited), $149,000 (unaudited), $204,000 and $46,000, respectively.

14. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

In 2010, the Company established an incentive plan (“SARs Plan”) whereby stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) are granted to employees. SARs are either vested in full on the date of grant or vest annually over four years in equal installments commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date, or if earlier, upon the occurrence of an exit event, subject to continued employment on the vesting date and acceleration in limited cases upon a qualifying termination of employment. The SARs are exercisable upon an exit event and expire ten years after the date of grant. As the exercise of the SARs is contingent upon an exit event, and no such event had occurred as of December 31, 2011, no SARs were exercisable and no compensation expense has been recognized.

In conjunction with the Reorganization, the SARs Plan was replaced by OLP’s Incentive Unit Plan. In February 2012, participants in the SARs Plan elected to participate in an exchange offer whereby each SAR unit was exchanged for one incentive unit under OLP’s Incentive Unit Plan, which incentive units are intended to constitute “profits interests.” Each incentive unit is subject to the same vesting conditions that were applicable to the corresponding SARs based on the employees’ continued employment with OLP or any of its affiliates, and is subject to restrictions substantially similar to the exercise restrictions applicable to the corresponding SARs. While the SARs expired ten years from their respective grant date, there is no expiration date on the incentive units.

SARs activity and changes for nine month period ended September 30, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011 were as follows:

 

     Number of
SARs
    Weighted
Average Strike Price

     —          —     
  

 

 

   

The exchange resulted in 8,151 service-based incentive units and 6,848 performance-based incentive units which vest over four years from the grant date of the original SAR in equal 25% increments, and 667 units which were vested as of the exchange date. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, an additional 834 (unaudited) service-based incentive units were awarded to employees. Compensation expense is amortized based upon the fair value of the share-based awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Compensation expense recognized was $10,503,000 (unaudited) for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

The fair value of each incentive unit issued in respect of a SAR granted during the period from July 16, 2010 to May 9, 2011 was determined employing a scenario analysis of the future enterprise value of the Company. The scenario analysis involved growing the Company’s valuation as of December 31, 2011, the date upon which the evaluation was prepared by a third-party. In each enterprise value scenario, the value of the incentive units was determined by tranche incorporating any performance based hurdles. These incentive unit values were then discounted back to a date to approximate the exchange date. The scenarios were then assigned a

15. DISTRIBUTIONS

During September 2012, the Company distributed $15,592,000 in cash payments to noncontrolling interests in accordance with the partnership agreement. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of noncontrolling interests within the Consolidated Statements of Stockholder’s Equity.

In connection with the formation of OLP, the Company distributed options in OLP to its shareholders. As discussed in Note 1, these options were exercised by the shareholders in April 2012. As a result, the Company recognized the tax effect of the gain on the exercise of Options of $11,126,000 as a reduction in additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Statements of Stockholder’s Equity.

 

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Letters of Credit

Outstanding letters of credit were $3,037,000 (unaudited), $9,000,000 and $12,000,000 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, to provide financial assurance for the ultimate closure of the Company’s facilities. In order to obtain or renew operating permits, the Company is required to provide financial assurances to guarantee that the permitted facilities will be closed in accordance with applicable law.

Litigation
