<PAGE> 6

corporation ("WCC"), and in addition used $5,626,286.87 in cash. The source of

Agreement dated as of May 31, 1989 (the "Exchange Agreement") and subsequently
acquired an additional 219,770 Shares in the aggregate. The Shares were acquired
by Interkohle as an investment.

     Following a recent review by Interkohle of all of its investments,
Interkohle has concluded that ownership of the Shares is no longer strategically
necessary for Interkohle. As a result, Interkohle is considering the possible
sale of the Shares. Interkohle may effect the sale of all or a portion of the
Shares pursuant to an underwritten public offering, through sales in the open
market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market
conditions and other relevant factors. Interkohle intends to keep the Company
informed as to any plans it may have regarding any disposition of its Shares.
Interkohle will continue to hold the Shares as a financial investment until
Interkohle is able to sell the Shares on acceptable terms.

     Except as described above, Interkohle has no present plans or proposals
that relate to or would result in:

          (a) The acquisition by any person of additional securities of the
Company in excess of 15% of the Company's common stock or the disposition of
securities of the Company;

          (b) An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries;

          (c) A sale or transfer of a material amount of the assets of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries;

          (d) Any change in the present board of directors or management of the
Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of
directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board, except as provided in
the Stockholders' Agreement dated as of May 31, 1989 between Interkohle and Mr.
E. B. Leisenring, Jr.;

inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;

          (i) A class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible for
termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or

          (j) Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
