ITEM 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not
include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation
of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of
Management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals necessary
for a fair presentation of the operating results have been included in the
statements.

On January 1, 1999 Ogden Corporation (hereinafter together with its consolidated
subsidiaries referred to as "Ogden" or the "Company") adopted the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5
"Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities". This SOP established accounting
standards for these costs and requires they generally be expensed as incurred.
The effect of the adoption of this SOP was a charge of $3,820,000 net of income
taxes of $1,313,000 recorded as a cumulative effect of change in accounting
principle in the accompanying financial statements.

The accompanying financial statements for the prior period have been
reclassified as to certain amounts to conform with the 2000 presentation.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

On September 29, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan to
dispose of all of the operations of the Entertainment and Aviation segments and
to report the results of operations from those segments prospectively as
Discontinued Operations. Information for two segments previously reflected under
the segment headings "Energy" and "Other" are now reported as Continuing
Operations and will continue to be reported under those headings. At March 31,
2000, the Company had approximately $552,000,000 in net assets associated with
its discontinued operations. In addition, the Company had associated debt with
respect to the discontinued operations of approximately $140,000,000. Since
September 29, 1999 the Company has retained financial advisors to assist it in
determining how best to group the assets to maximize sales proceeds. As part of
that process, on May 12, 2000 the Company closed its previously announced
transaction for the sale of its Themed Parks and Attractions, other than its
Jazzland theme park, which it expects to close within the next thirty days.
Further, the Company expects to close the sale of substantially all of
its Food and Beverage/Venue Management business within the next thirty days.
The Company received second round bids for its Aviation business on
May 11, 2000, and is currently evaluating how to maximize the sales proceeds of
those assets based on the bids received. The Company is in various stages with
respect to the disposition of a number of other assets included within
discontinued operations. Finally, certain aspects of the businesses will require
the Company to pay monies to terminate leases or cancel other contractual
commitments. Based upon the anticipated results of the sales processes, gains
and losses on disposal of portions of the discontinued operations will be
deferred until substantially all assets of the discontinued operations have been
sold. At March 31, 2000, the Company has deferred a total of $658,000 in net
gains on sales of assets of discontinued operations. Also, for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, the Company accrued


                                       1
<PAGE>

approximately $18,000,000 representing estimated pretax net operating losses of
its discontinued operations through their respective anticipated dates of
disposal. The Company believes that it will receive net proceeds equal to or in
excess of its carrying value of net assets of its discontinued operations.

Net sales and income (loss) from discontinued operations are as follows:

SPECIAL CHARGES:

As a result of the Company's Board of Directors' plan to dispose of its Aviation
and Entertainment businesses and close its New York City headquarters, and its
plan to exit other noncore businesses, the Company incurred various expenses in
1999 which were recognized in its continuing and discontinued operations. Of
those charges, certain cash charges related to severance costs, mainly for its
New York City employees, and contract termination costs of its former Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer were not fully paid. The following is a summary of
those costs and related payments during the three months ended March 31, 2000
(expressed in thousands of dollars):

CONTINUING OPERATIONS: Revenues for the first three months of 2000 were
$1,200,000 higher than the comparable period of 1999 primarily reflecting an
increase in the Energy segment revenues of $5,100,000. Increases in the
Energy segment's revenues of $21,300,000 were primarily due to new plants in
Thailand ($9,400,000) and The Philippines ($3,500,000) that began operations
subsequent to the first quarter of 1999, the acquisition of an additional 50%
interest in a power plant in California in June of 1999 ($4,300,000) and
increases at several waste-to-energy facilities primarily the Tulsa, Oklahoma
facility ($1,500,000) reflecting a renegotiated service agreement that became
effective in April of 1999, an increase in the Union County, New Jersey
facility ($1,000,000) due to an increase in energy revenues, with the
remaining increase ($1,600,000) primarily attributed to contractual annual
escalation adjustments at various other facilities. These increases were
partially offset by a gain in the comparable period of 1999 of $4,900,000 on
the sale of the Company's interest in a joint venture in Maine, as well as
reduced construction revenues of $11,300,000 reflecting a decrease in civil
construction activity ($8,600,000) due to the completion of some projects in
1999 and a decrease

                                       4
<PAGE>

in retrofit activity ($4,000,000) partially offset by an increase in water
and wastewater construction ($1,300,000). In 1999, the Company adopted a plan
to sell its environmental consulting and engineering business and to
discontinue its civil construction projects. Management anticipates that the
remaining construction projects will be completed during 2000, with the
exception of one project that is expected to continue into 2001. Therefore,
the Company anticipates a continued decline in civil construction activity
during 2000 as projects are completed. In addition, retrofit construction
activity will also decline, as facilities attain compliance with the Clean
Air Act Amendments of 1990 which is mandated by the end of 2000. These
increases in the Energy segment's revenues were offset by lower revenues of
$3,900,000 in the Other segment primarily due to reduced activity in
Datacom's operations chiefly associated with the Chapter XI bankruptcy filing
in March 2000 of Genicom Corporation, its major customer, and a $600,000 loss
on the sale of Applied Data Technology, Inc. (ADTI) at the end of March 2000.

Consolidated operating income for the first three months of 2000 was $9,500,000
lower than the comparable period of 1999. The Energy segment's income from
operations was $6,600,000 lower chiefly associated with a gain of $4,900,000
recognized in the comparable period in 1999 on the sale of the Company's
interest in a joint venture in Maine, additional depreciation expense of
$1,800,000 in connection with shortened estimated useful lives of certain air
pollution control equipment resulting from the Clean Air Act Amendments, and
increased overhead expenses of $1,600,000 relating to the expansion of the power
business, as well as a decrease in operating income from construction of
$400,000. These decreases were partially offset by net increases in operating
income of $2,100,000 from several projects including new plants that became
operational subsequent to the comparable period in 1999. In addition, the Other
segment's income from operations was $1,300,000 lower primarily due to lower
activity at Datacom, chiefly associated with the Chapter XI bankruptcy filing in
March 2000 of Genicom ($1,200,000), as well as the loss on the sale of ADTI in
the first quarter ($600,000).

Selling and administrative expenses were $2,000,000 higher primarily
associated with increased overhead costs related to international office
expansion for the Energy segment and increased corporate severance and
overhead costs. Debt service charges increased approximately $700,000
compared with the comparable period of 1999 due mainly to higher project debt
associated with new projects. The Energy segment has one interest rate swap
agreement entered into as a hedge against interest rate exposure on
adjustable-rate project debt that resulted in additional debt service expense
of $400,000 and $700,000 for the periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.

Interest income for the first three months of 2000 was $1,100,000 lower than the
comparable period of 1999 primarily reflecting lower cash balances available for
investments.

Interest expense was $1,500,000 higher chiefly associated with increased
borrowings on the Company's revolving line of credit and higher interest rates
on adjustable rate debt.


                                       5
<PAGE>

In addition, the Company had one swap agreement covering a notional amount of
$1,200,000 which converted the Entertainment segment's $1,200,000 variable rate
debt to a fixed rate, and expires November 30, 2000. Additional interest expense
relating to this swap agreement was not significant for the three-month periods
ended March 31, 2000 and 1999.

Equity in net income of investees and joint ventures decreased by $500,000
primarily reflecting the effect of a settlement in the comparable period of
1999 with a customer amounting to $1,600,000, offset by a net increase in 2000
in earnings of $1,100,000 due to increased generation on existing projects
($900,000) and income related to a new project that became operational during
the third quarter of 1999 ($200,000).

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was
17.5% compared with 32.4% for 1999. This decrease in the effective rate was
primarily due to higher foreign income taxed at rates lower than the Federal
statutory rate and the effect of energy tax credits.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS: Loss from discontinued operations for the first
three months of 2000 was $25,300,000, a decrease in earnings of $31,800,000
from the comparable period of 1999. Operating income (loss) of discontinued
operations was ($30,500,000) in the first three months of 2000 compared to
$11,000,000 in the same period of 1999. This $41,500,000 change was chiefly
associated with a decrease of $30,500,000 in income from operations of the
Entertainment segment, primarily reflecting a provision of $18,700,000 for
estimated pretax net operating losses from April 1, 2000 through the
anticipated dates of sales of the businesses. In addition, Entertainment had
a decrease of $11,800,000 in income from operations primarily reflecting a
gain of $6,000,000 in 1999 on the renegotiation of a revised management
contract at Arrowhead Pond, increased legal, accounting, and consulting
expenses, and additional depreciation expense in connection with shortened
estimated useful lives of management information systems ending on the
expected dates of disposition of the businesses plus the related transition
period, as well as overhead costs in connection with the discontinuance of
the businesses of $5,200,000 and start-up costs of $2,800,000 at the Water
Parks and Jazzland theme park. These decreases were partially offset by a net
increase of $3,800,000 in sports and convention centers and venue management
activity. The Aviation segment's income from operations was $11,000,000 lower
primarily reflecting a $4,000,000 gain on the sale of an ownership interest
in the Hong Kong ground services company and an insurance recovery of
$1,500,000, both occurring in 1999; lower fueling and ground service income
of $2,800,000 reflecting lower customer activity; and increased legal,
accounting, consulting and overhead costs of $4,100,000 in connection with
the discontinuance of the business.

CAPITAL INVESTMENTS AND COMMITMENTS: For the three months ended March 31, 2000,
capital investments for continuing operations amounted to $15,100,000, of which
$14,900,000 was for Energy and $200,000 was for Other operations.

At March 31, 2000, capital commitments for continuing operations amounted to
$10,000,000 for normal replacement and growth in Energy. Other capital
commitments for Energy as of March 31, 2000 amounted to approximately
$100,500,000. This amount


                                       6
<PAGE>

includes a commitment to pay, in 2008, $10,600,000 for a service contract
extension at an energy facility. In addition, this amount includes $28,000,000
for a 50% interest in a project in Thailand; $27,200,000 and $15,300,000,
respectively, for two oil-fired projects in India; $3,400,000 for additional
equity commitments related to a coal-fired power project in the Philippines;
$2,200,000 for a mass-burn waste-to-energy facility in Italy; and $13,800,000
for standby letters of credit in support of debt service reserve requirements.
Funding for the additional mandatory equity contributions to the coal-fired
power project in the Philippines is being provided through bank credit
facilities, which are due to be repaid in 2000. In addition, compliance with the
standards and guidelines under the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 will require
further Energy capital expenditures of approximately $20,000,000 through
December 2000, subject to the final time schedules determined by the individual
states in which the Company's waste-to-energy facilities are located.

Commitments for Discontinued Operations amounted to $21,200,000 for normal
replacement and growth in Aviation ($200,000) and Entertainment ($21,000,000),
the latter relating primarily to Entertainment's Jazzland theme park in New
Orleans, Louisiana. As part of its agreement to sell its themed attractions, the
Company has agreed to complete the construction of the Jazzland theme park.

Ogden and certain of its subsidiaries have issued or are party to performance
bonds and guarantees and related contractual obligations undertaken mainly
pursuant to agreements to construct and operate certain waste-to-energy,
entertainment, and other facilities. In the normal course of business, they are
involved in legal proceedings in which damages and other remedies are sought.
Management does not expect that these contractual obligations, legal
proceedings, or any other contingent obligations incurred in the normal course
of business will have a material adverse effect on Ogden's Consolidated
Financial Statements.

The Company did not include its interests in either the Arrowhead Pond in
Anaheim, California or the Corel Centre near Ottawa, Canada as part of the sale
of its Venue Management business announced in March 2000. The Company manages
the Arrowhead Pond under a long-term contract. As part of this contract, the
Company is a party, along with the City of Anaheim, to a reimbursement agreement
in connection with a letter of credit in the amount of approximately
$120,000,000. Under the reimbursement agreement, the Company is responsible for
draws, if any, under the letter of credit caused by the Company's failure to
perform its duties under its management contract at that venue. The Company is
exploring alternatives for disposing of the Arrowhead Pond and Corel Centre,
discussed below, along with the related obligations.

During 1994, a subsidiary of Ogden entered into a 30-year facility management
contract at the Corel Centre pursuant to which it agreed to advance funds to a
customer, and if necessary, to assist the customer's refinancing of senior
secured debt incurred in connection with the construction of the facility. Ogden
is obligated to purchase such senior debt in the amount of $97,100,000 on
December 23, 2002, if the debt is not refinanced prior to that time. Ogden is
also required to repurchase the outstanding amount of certain subordinated
secured debt of such customer on December 23, 2002. At March 31, 2000, the
amount outstanding was $51,600,000. In addition, as of March 31, 2000, the
Company


                                       7
<PAGE>

had guaranteed $3,400,000 of senior secured term debt of an affiliate and
principal tenant (the NHL Ottawa Senators) of this customer and had guaranteed
up to $3,400,000 of the tenant's secured revolving debt. Further, Ogden is
obligated to purchase $20,600,000 of the tenant's secured subordinated
indebtedness on January 29, 2004, if such indebtedness has not been repaid or
refinanced prior to that time. In October 1999, Ogden also agreed to advance a
secured loan to that tenant of up to approximately $8,400,000 if certain events
occur, of which $2,100,000 had been advanced at March 31, 2000. Separately,
Ogden has guaranteed approximately $3,600,000 of borrowings of a customer of
Metropolitan Entertainment Group, an Entertainment joint venture in which Ogden
has an equity interest. The Company expects this guarantee to be assumed by the
ultimate purchaser of this interest. Management does not expect that these
arrangements will have a material adverse effect on Ogden's Consolidated
Financial Statements.

LIQUIDITY/CASH FLOW: Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing
operations was $6,800,000 higher than the comparable period of 1999 primarily
reflecting a reduction in accounts receivable of $28,000,000, and a decrease of
$17,700,000 in other liabilities. These increases were partially offset by a
decrease in income from continuing operations of $8,200,000 and a reduction of
$33,100,000 in accrued expenses and accounts payable. Net cash used in investing
activities was $36,000,000 lower primarily relating to a decrease of $59,900,000
in entities purchased and a net decrease of $10,600,000 in distributions from
and investments in and advances to joint ventures. These decreases were
partially offset by lower proceeds from the sale of marketable securities of
$22,300,000, higher capital expenditures of $7,100,000 and lower proceeds from
the sale of businesses of $4,900,000. Net cash used in financing activities was
$25,200,000 lower primarily due to a decrease of $40,600,000 of funds held in
trust, a reduction of dividends paid of $15,400,000 and in the purchase of
treasury shares of $2,500,000. These decreases were partially offset by a net
decrease in outstanding debt of $33,000,000.

At March 31, 2000, the Company had approximately $127,000,000 in cash and cash
equivalents, of which $80,000,000 related to continuing operations. In addition,
the Company has a revolving credit facility, on which the Company had drawn
$50,000,000 at March 31, 2000. The Company has agreed with its credit providers
(including its revolving credit lenders and certain other banks that have
similar covenants in their respective facilities, collectively the "Credit
Providers"), to amend financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain
certain ratios with respect to its indebtedness as a percentage of its
capitalization, its interest coverage as a function of income from continuing
operations and its minimum shareholders' equity, effective to July 31, 2000.
These amendments were necessary as a result of the financial effects of the
Company's decision to place the Aviation and Entertainment segments in
discontinued operations and complete the sales of those units. It is likely that
these waivers will need to be extended past July 31, 2000. In addition, the
Credit Providers granted the Company permission to sell its Aviation and
Entertainment units, subject to certain minimum prices with respect to certain
of the assets. In addition, the lenders agreed to amend the revolving credit
agreement to permit the Company to retain the first $100,000,000 in cash
received from the asset sales and, in addition, provided the Company with a
$50,000,000 liquidity facility (in addition to currently outstanding amounts),
which facility is secured by certain assets of the Company. The Company has
agreed to place all cash proceeds received from the sales of the units in


                                       8
<PAGE>

excess of $100,000,000 in a segregated account to be applied to pay down
existing debt. The Company has further agreed not to incur any indebtedness
other than that incurred under the revolving credit facility. In order to make
additional Energy investments other than certain specified permitted
investments, the Company will require a substantial majority of its Credit
Providers to consent to such investments. To the extent the $50,000,000
liquidity facility is drawn, such amounts will be required to be repaid by July
31, 2000. In consideration for these concessions, the Company paid or will pay
fees to the lending group of approximately $12,000,000.

On May 12, 2000 the Company closed its previously announced transaction for the
sale of its Themed Parks and Attractions, other than its Jazzland theme park,
which it expects to close within the next thirty days. Further, the Company
expects to close the sale of a substantial majority of its Food and
Beverage/Venue Management business within the next thirty days. The Company
received second round bids for its Aviation business on May 11, 2000, and is
currently evaluating how to maximize the sales proceeds of those assets based on
bids received. The Company also determined in the fourth quarter of 1999 to sell
all of the operations currently reflected in the "Other Segment" and decided to
sell its domestic Environmental Consulting business and its Spanish subsidiary,
and to wind down the operations of its civil construction business, all of which
are reported in its Energy segment. To that end, the Company closed the sale
transaction of its ADTI unit at the end of March 2000. Accordingly, the Company
expects to have sufficient proceeds to fund normal operations (including certain
permitted energy investments), and repay certain other indebtedness on or before
the maturity date. The Company continues to explore possible new credit
facilities and/or obtaining equity for such purposes, including discussions with
its existing Credit Providers.

Under certain agreements entered into by the Company, if the Company's
outstanding debt securities are no longer rated investment grade, the Company
may be required to post additional collateral or letters of credit. The failure
to post such letters could result in a forfeiture of certain contracts or could
result in a default under the agreements requiring the posting of such letters.
Such a default would also be a default under the Company's credit facilities.
With the consent of its Credit Providers, the Company could cash collateralize
these obligations or potentially utilize sales proceeds for such purpose;
alternatively, the Credit Providers could provide such letters directly, or the
Company could raise equity for such purpose. The Credit Providers have agreed to
work with the Company to explore solutions to this issue should it arise. In
addition, from June 2 through July 31, 2000, the Company will need to renew
certain letters of credit which have been issued by certain members of its
lending group. Failure to obtain the renewal of these letters of credit could
give rise to defaults pursuant to the terms of the underlying agreements.

The Company believes its recent agreement with its Credit Providers is
consistent with its prior stated intention of using the proceeds from the sales
of the Entertainment and Aviation businesses to pay down existing debt.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.          LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

                 The Company has various legal proceedings involving matters
arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that
there are any pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation
incidental to its business, to which the Company is a party or to which any of
its property is subject, the outcome of which would have a material adverse
effect on the Company's consolidated position or results of operation.

                 The Company's operations are subject to various Federal, state
and local environmental laws and regulations, including the Clean Air Act, the
Clean Water Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and
Liability Act (CERCLA) and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).
Although the Company's operations are occasionally subject to proceedings and
orders pertaining to emissions into the environment and other environmental
violations, the Company believes that it is in substantial compliance with
existing environmental laws and regulations.

                 In connection with certain previously divested operations, the
Company may be identified, along with other entities, as being among potentially
responsible parties responsible for contribution for costs associated with the
correction and remediation of environmental conditions at various hazardous
waste disposal sites subject to CERCLA. In certain instances the Company may be
exposed to joint and several liability for remedial action or damages. The
Company's ultimate liability in connection with such environmental claims will
depend on many factors, including its volumetric share of waste, the total cost
of remediation, the financial viability of other companies that also sent waste
to a given site and its contractual arrangement with the purchaser of such
operations.

                 The potential costs related to all of the foregoing matters and
the possible impact on future operations are uncertain due in part to the
complexity of government laws and regulations and their interpretations, the
varying costs and effectiveness of cleanup technologies, the uncertain level of
insurance or other types of recovery, and the questionable level of the
Company's responsibility.

                 Although the ultimate outcome and expense of any litigation,
including environmental remediation, is uncertain, the Company believes that the
following proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

(a)      Environmental Matters

         (i) In an ongoing criminal investigation by the U.S. Department of
Justice Ogden has contested that the Company has criminal liability under the
Federal Clean Water Act as a result of a spill of aviation fuel from a holding
tank in October 1996 at a former tank farm operated by Ogden at Dulles
International Airport in Washington, D.C. The Department of Justice Attorney
offered to resolve this matter by means of a guilty plea to a misdemeanor under
the Clean Water Act. Ogden rejected that offer by letter dated December 16, 1999
and is cooperating with the government to seek a fair and reasonable solution.

         (ii) In October 1990, Ogden Aviation Fueling Company of Virginia, Inc.
and Ogden Aviation Services, Inc. were served with a lawsuit entitled
"AIRFRANCE, ET. AL. V. OGDEN AVIATION FUELING COMPANY OF VIRGINIA, INC. AND
OGDEN AVIATION SERVICES, INC." (Circuit Ct., Fairfax Co., Index No. 183590) in
which certain of the airlines seek recovery of cleanup costs arising from a
spill of aviation fuel from a holding tank in October 1996 at the former tank
farm operated by Ogden at Dulles International Airport for which they reimbursed
Ogden. The plaintiffs include United Air Lines, Inc., the largest carrier that
operated out of Dulles in 1996, as well as nine other airlines - Air France,
America West Airlines, Inc., Austrian Airlines, British Airways PLC, Continental
Airlines, Inc., Lufthansa A.G., Northwest Airlines, Inc., United Parcel Service
Co., and Virgin Atlantic Airways, Ltd.

         The suit claims damages in the amount of at least $731,149.76, plus
interest. This dollar amount reflects the portion of the spill cleanup paid by
the named plaintiffs. The suit alleges damages on two theories: (1) breach of
contract in that Ogden was not authorized under the contract to charge the
airlines spill related costs; and (2) equitable relief in that Ogden has been
unjustly enriched at the expense of the airlines.

         Ogden Aviation Services, Inc. filed a motion to dismiss the complaint
on the grounds that it was never a party to the fuel service agreements. Ogden
Aviation Fueling Company of Virginia, Inc. filed a motion to dismiss the unjust
enrichment claim and answered the claim arising under the contract. Both motions
to dismiss were denied and the litigation will proceed. Ogden takes the position
that fuel spill clean up costs were properly charged back to the plaintiff
airlines pursuant to the terms of the controlling agreements and will defend its
position in this litigation.

         (iii) Ogden New York Services, Inc. ("Ogden New York"), has resolved
all liabilities to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey associated with
Ogden New York's operations at the Bulk and Satellite Tank Farms located at the
John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, New York. Ogden New York has
reached an agreement in principle with the Port Authority under which it will
make an upfront payment of $1,000,000 with additional payments tied to the
extension of the lease totaling $1,200,000 from 1999 through 2008 ($200,000 for
first 4 years and $100,000 for remaining 4 years).

         (iv) On January 4, 2000 and January 21, 2000, United Air Lines, Inc.
("United") and American Airlines, Inc. ("American) named Ogden New York in two
separate lawsuits filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York. The
lawsuits seek judgment declaring that Ogden New York is responsible for
petroleum contamination at airport terminals formerly or currently leased by
United and American. Ogden New York moved to consolidate the two lawsuits on
April 27, 2000.


                                      II-2
<PAGE>

         Both United and American allege that Ogden negligently caused
discharges of petroleum at the airport and that Ogden is obligated to indemnify
the airlines pursuant to the Fuel Services Agreements between Ogden and the
respective airline. United and American further allege that Ogden is liable
under New York's Navigation Law which imposes liability on persons responsible
for discharges of petroleum and under common law theories of indemnity and
contribution.

         The United complaint is asserted against Ogden, American, Delta,
Northwest and American Eagle. United is seeking $1,540,000 in technical
contractor costs and $432,000 in legal expenses related to the investigation and
remediation of contamination at the airport, as well as a declaration that Ogden
and the airline defendants are responsible for all or a portion of future costs
that United may incur.

         The American complaint, which is asserted against both Ogden and
United, sets forth essentially the same legal basis for liability as the United
complaint. American is seeking reimbursement of all or a portion of $4,600,000
allegedly expended in cleanup costs and legal fees it expects to incur to
complete an investigation and cleanup that it is conducting under an
administrative order with the State Department of Environmental Conservation.
The estimate of those sums alleged in the complaint is $70,000,000.

         Ogden disputes the allegations and believes that the damages sought are
excessive in view of the Airlines' responsibility for the contamination under
their respective leases and permits with the Port Authority. On May 1, 2000
Ogden filed a motion to dismiss the complaints on the ground that the
controlling agreements limit the Airlines' recovery against Ogden to the
coverage afforded under Ogden's insurance policies.

         (v) On December 23, 1999 Allied Services, Inc. was named as a third
party defendant in an action filed in the Superior Court of the State of New
Jersey. The third-party complaint alleges that Allied generated hazardous
substances to a reclamation facility known as the Swope Oil and Chemical Company
Site, and that contamination migrated from the Swope Oil Site to the Pennsauken
Landfill and surrounding areas.

         Third-party plaintiffs seek contribution and indemnification from
Allied and over 90 other third-party defendants for costs incurred and to be
incurred to cleanup the Pennsauken landfill and surrounding areas.

         As a result of uncertainties regarding the source and scope of
contamination, the large number of potentially responsible parties and the
varying degrees of responsibility among various classes of potentially
responsible parties, the Company's share of liability, if any, cannot be
determined at this time.

         (vi) On January 12, 1998, the Province of Newfoundland filed an
Information Against Airconsol Aviation Services Limited ("Airconsol") alleging
that Airconsol violated provincial environmental laws in connection with a fuel
spill on or about January 14, 1997 at Airconsol's fuel facility at the Deer
Lake, Canada Airport. Airconsol contested the allegations and prevailed. The
Court voided the Information. The Crown has appealed the Court's decision. The
Company will continue to contest its alleged liability on appeal.

         (vii) The Company and/or certain subsidiaries have been advised by
various authorities that they are responsible for investigation, remediation
and/or corrective action in connection with fueling operations at various
airports. Although the Company and/or its subsidiaries do not


                                      II-3

acknowledge any legal obligation to do so, the Company and/or its subsidiaries
are cooperating with the government agencies in each matter to seek fair and
reasonable solutions. In addition, the cost to the Company and/or its
subsidiaries to comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations is
generally reimbursed to the Company and/or its subsidiaries through the
airlines.

(b)      Shareholder Litigation

         On September 22, October 1, and October 12, 1999, complaints (the
"Complaints") denominated as class actions (the "Actions") were filed in the
United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the
Company, the Company's former Chairman and Chief Executive, R. Richard Ablon,
and Robert M. DiGia (incorrectly identified in the Complaints as the Chief
Financial Officer and Senior Vice President of the Company). The Complaints,
which are largely identical to one another, are brought by alleged shareholders
of the Company and purport to assert claims under the federal securities laws.
In general, the Complaints allege that the Company and the individual defendants
disseminated false and misleading information during the period of March 11,
1999 through September 17, 1999 (the "Class Period") with respect to the
Company's intended reorganization plans and its financial condition. The
Complaints seek the certification of a class of all purchasers of Ogden
Corporation common stock during the Class Period. By order dated December 22,
1999, the Actions have been consolidated for all purposes and lead plaintiffs
and lead counsel have been appointed. On February 28, 2000 plaintiffs filed a
consolidated amended compliant (the "Amended Compliant"). The Amended Complaint
repeats the allegations made in the original complaints and adds new allegations
with respect to the timing of the reporting of certain losses experienced by
Ogden. In the Amended Complaint, Plaintiffs have added Raymond E. Dombrowski,
Jr., Ogden's Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, as a defendant.
There has been no discovery in the Actions. While the Actions are at a very
early stage, the Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the allegations
made in the Complaints and intends to defend the Actions vigorously. On April
28, 2000 all defendants filed motion to dismiss the Actions, with prejudice.

                        (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this
            Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make Liquidity Loans to
            the Company from time to time during the Liquidity Availability
            Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding
            not to exceed such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the Liquidity
            Subfacility Amount, provided that (i) the aggregate unpaid principal
            balance of all Liquidity Loans at any one time outstanding shall not
            exceed the Liquidity Subfacility Amount and (ii) the aggregate
            unpaid principal balance of all Liquidity Loans, R/C Loans and
            Competitive Bid Loans at any one time outstanding, plus the Letter

            or (b) Eurodollar Loans, or any combination thereof. Notwithstanding

            priority Lien (or the equivalent thereof under the relevant local
            law) on the Non-Domestic Collateral on or before the Liquidity
            Subfacility Effective Date except for the Collateral described in
            the proviso to paragraph 2.27(a), the aggregate unpaid principal
            balance of all Liquidity Loans outstanding at any one time shall not
            exceed the lesser of $30,000,000 and the Liquidity Subfacility
            Amount at such time until the Agent shall have obtained a perfected
            first priority Lien (or the equivalent thereof under the relevant
            local law) on the Non-Domestic Collateral. Upon the Agent obtaining
            a perfected first priority Lien (or the equivalent thereof under the
            relevant local law) on the Non-Domestic Collateral pursuant to (and
            subject to the limitations set forth in) paragraph 2.27, the
            aggregate unpaid principal balance of all Liquidity Loans
            outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the Liquidity
            Subfacility Amount, subject to the provisions of the first sentence
            of this paragraph 2.26(a).

                        (b) The Company may borrow Liquidity Loans on any
            Business Day occurring on or after the Liquidity Subfacility
            Effective Date and ending on the Liquidity Subfacility Termination
            Date, by giving the Agent an irrevocable telephonic (to be promptly
            confirmed in writing) or fax or other written notice of borrowing
            (each a "LIQUIDITY BORROWING REQUEST") no later than 11:00 A.M., New
            York City time, three Business Days prior to each requested
            Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and no later than
            11:00 A.M., New York City time, two Business days prior to the
            requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans, specifying
            (i) the aggregate amount of Liquidity Loans to be borrowed, (ii) the
            requested Borrowing Date, and (iii) whether the borrowing is to be
            of Eurodollar Loans, Base Rate Loans, or a combination thereof. Each
            borrowing of Eurodollar Loans comprising all or a portion of a
            Liquidity Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal
            to $5,000,000 or such amount plus a whole multiple of $1,000,000.
            Each borrowing of Base Rate Loans comprising all or a portion of a
            Liquidity Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal
            to $1,000,000 or such amount plus a whole multiple thereof or, if
            less, the unused amount of the Liquidity Subfacility Amount. Upon
            receipt of each notice of borrowing from the Company, the Agent
            shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Subject to its receipt of
            the notice referred to in the preceding sentence, each Lender will
            make the amount of its Commitment Percentage of each Liquidity
            Borrowing available to the Agent for the account of the Company at
            the office of the Agent set forth in paragraph 11.2 not later than
            12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Liquidity Borrowing Date
            requested by the Company, in funds immediately available to the
            Agent at such office.

                                       31
<PAGE>

            The amounts so made available to the Agent on a Liquidity Borrowing
            Date will then, subject to the satisfaction of the terms and
            conditions of this Agreement as determined by the Agent, be made
            available on such date to the Company by the Agent at the office of
            the Agent specified in paragraph 11.2 by crediting the account of
            the Company on the books of such office with the aggregate of said
            amounts in like funds as received by the Agent.

                        (c) Unless the Agent shall have received prior notice
            from a Lender (by telephone or otherwise, such notice to be
            confirmed by fax or other writing) that such Lender will not make
            available to the Agent such Lenders' pro rata share of the Liquidity
            Loans requested by the Company, the Agent may assume that such
            Lender has made such share available to the Agent on such Liquidity
            Borrowing Date in accordance with this paragraph, provided that such
            Lender received notice of the proposed Liquidity Borrowing from the
            Agent, and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
            available to the Company on such Liquidity Borrowing Date a
            corresponding amount. If and to the extent such Lender shall not
            have so made such pro rata share available to the Agent, such Lender
            and the Company severally agree to pay without duplication to the
            Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount (to the extent
            not previously paid by the other), together with interest thereon
            for each day from the date such amount is made available to the
            Company until the date such amount is paid to the Agent, at a rate
            per annum equal to, in the case of the Company, the applicable
            interest rate set forth in paragraph 2.8, and, in the case of such
            Lender, the Federal Funds Rate in effect on each such day (as
            determined by the Agent). Such payment by the Company, however,
            shall be without prejudice to its rights against such Lender. If
            such Lender shall pay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such
            amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Liquidity Loan as part
            of such Liquidity Loans for purposes of this Agreement, which
            Liquidity Loan shall be deemed to have been made by such Lender on
            the Liquidity Borrowing Date applicable to such Liquidity Loans.

                  2.27. SECURITY

                        (a) In order to secure the due payment and performance
            by the Company of its obligations in respect of the Liquidity Loans
            and of the Subsidiary Guarantors of their obligations in respect of
            the Subsidiary Guarantees (the "SUBFACILITY OBLIGATIONS"), the
            Company shall, and cause the Subsidiary Guarantors to, grant to the
            Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders


                                       32
<PAGE>

            a Lien on the Collateral in accordance with the Security Documents;
            provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement or any of the
            other Loan Documents shall require the Company or any Subsidiary
            Guarantor to grant to the Agent a Lien on any Non-Domestic
            Collateral (other than pursuant to the Czech Loan Assignment and the
            Czech Mortgage) to the extent (and only to the extent) that the
            granting of such Lien (i) would violate the terms of any material
            written agreement to which the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor
            is a party or by which the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or such
            Non-Domestic Collateral is bound as of the Liquidity Subfacility
            Effective Date, (ii) contravene any applicable law, statute, rule or
            regulation or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any
            Governmental Body or (iii) result in material adverse tax
            consequences to the Company.

                        (b) In the event that the Company or any Subsidiary
            Guarantor is unable as a result of the circumstances described in
            clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of paragraph 2.27(a) to grant to the
            Agent a Lien on any of the Non-Domestic Collateral, the Company
            shall deliver to the Agent a certificate (the "COLLATERAL
            CERTIFICATE") in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent
            identifying the Collateral on which the Agent will not obtain a Lien
            and setting forth in reasonable detail the reasons that the Company
            or such Subsidiary Guarantor is unable to grant such Lien, together
            with such supporting documentation (including, without limitation,
            copies of agreements translated into English and calculations of
            estimated tax consequences) as the Agent may reasonably request.

                        (c) Upon receipt by the Agent with respect to each
            Non-Domestic Subsidiary of (i) a Lien on the Non-Domestic Collateral
            in accordance with this Agreement and the Security Documents or (ii)
            one or more Collateral Certificates with respect to the Non-Domestic
            Collateral on which the Agent is not entitled to obtain a Lien
            pursuant to the proviso to paragraph 2.27(a), the Agent shall
            promptly notify each Lender in writing of the receipt by the Agent
            of such Liens and certificates and the date, which shall be a date
            not earlier than 3 Business Days after the date of such notice, on
            which the limitation on the outstanding principal amount of
            Liquidity Loans set forth in the penultimate sentence of paragraph
            2.26(a) shall terminate which shall be not later than 5 Business
            Days after the Agent shall have received such Liens and
            Certificates.

                        (d) Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred
            and is continuing, the Agent and the Lenders promptly will:

                                       33

            Collateral (including the Disbursement Account but not the Reserve

            by Ogden Services Corporation from the sale of the "food and

            Subfacility, (B) the cancellation of the Liquidity Subfacility by

            Aviation Business and the simultaneous repayment in full of the
            Liquidity Loans and all accrued interest thereon and termination of
            the Liquidity Subfacility, which release shall be simultaneously
            with such sale and the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds and
            repayment. The Agent and the Lenders shall execute and deliver to
            the Company such instruments and documents as the Company may
            reasonably request to evidence such release, at the sole cost and
            expense of the Company.

(A) Antidilutive

Note:

Basic earnings per common share was computed by dividing net income, reduced by
preferred stock dividend requirements, by the weighted average of the number of
shares of common stock outstanding during each period.

Diluted earnings per common share was computed on the assumption that all
convertible debentures, convertible preferred stock, and stock options converted
or exercised during each period, or outstanding at the end of each period were
converted at the beginning of each period or the date of issuance or grant, if
dilutive. This computation provides for the elimination of related convertible
debenture interest and preferred dividends.
