<PAGE>
Prime Succession Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), proposes to issue, as part of the Amended Joint Plan of
Reorganization of Prime Succession Holdings, Inc. and Prime Succession, Inc.
("Prime") and its Subsidiaries under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the
"Plan of Reorganization"), which was confirmed by the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court") on November 8, 2000,
its 14.25% Mandatorily Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2004, or upon
Conversion, 2009 (the "New Senior Subordinated Notes"). Pursuant to the Plan of
Reorganization, certain creditors of Prime, including the holders of Prime's 10
3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2004 (the "Old Senior Subordinated Notes")
will receive New Senior Subordinated Notes and common stock of the Company, in
the amounts specified in the Plan of Reorganization. On August 21, 2000, the
Bankruptcy Court approved the Disclosure Statement accompanying the Plan of
Reorganization ( the "Disclosure Statement") as containing "adequate
information" for the purpose of soliciting votes of holders of claims against
Prime (including the holders of Old Senior Subordinated Notes) for acceptance or
rejection of the Plan of Reorganization (Case No. 00-2969 (PJW)). A copy of the
Disclosure Statement, with the Plan of Reorganization annexed thereto as an
exhibit, is attached hereto as Exhibit T3E. The New Senior Subordinated Notes
are to be issued under an indenture (the "Senior Subordinated Note Indenture")
between the Company and United States Trust Company of New York, a form of which
is attached hereto as Exhibit T3C.
The Company believes that the issuance of the New Senior Subordinated
Notes is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933
(the "Securities Act") pursuant to Section 1145(a)(1) of the United States
Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"). Generally, Section 1145(a)(1) of the
Bankruptcy Code exempts the issuance of securities from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act and equivalent state securities and "blue
sky" laws if the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the securities are
issued by a debtor, an affiliate participating in a joint plan of reorganization
with the debtor, or a successor of the debtor under a plan of reorganization,
(ii) the recipients of the securities hold a claim against, an interest in, or a
claim for an administrative expense against, the debtor, and (iii) the
securities are issued entirely in exchange for the recipient's claim against or
interest in the debtor, or are issued "principally" in such exchange and
"partly" for cash or property. The Company believes that the issuance of
securities contemplated by the Plan of Reorganization will satisfy the
aforementioned requirements.
