During the past five years, none of TAC, AC, AIC, Anschutz and

has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of
competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a
judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting
or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding
any violation with respect to such laws.
TAC, AC, AIC and their affiliated companies are principally
engaged in investment in, and exploration and development of, natural resources,
railroads, real estate development, telecommunications, technology,
entertainment and professional sports.
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
On February 15, 2000, the effective date of the confirmed
Chapter 11 Bankruptcy plan of reorganization for the Company (the "Plan"), TAC
acquired beneficial ownership of 6,489,288 shares of Common Stock of the
Company, of which 6,488,356 shares are owned directly and 932 shares are owned
indirectly through AIC, TAC's wholly owned subsidiary. Prior to confirmation of
the Plan, TAC directly acquired $105,311,000 in the Company's subordinated debt
and indirectly acquired 23,300 shares of the Company's Common Stock through AIC.
$47,256,000 of the subordinated debt was from the Company's 8.5% Senior
Subordinated Notes and the remaining $58,055,000 was from the Company's 9.5%
Senior Subordinated Notes. All of the debt and shares were acquired for
investment purposes.
Under the Plan, TAC acquired 6,017,776 shares of the Company's
Common Stock, as reorganized, for the $105,311,000 in subordinated debt claims.
In addition, TAC committed to exercise rights to purchase warrants for 470,580
shares of the Company's Common Stock, as reorganized, at $10.00 per share. Also
under the Plan, AIC received 932 shares of the Company's Common Stock, as
reorganized, for AIC's interests represented by the 23,300 shares of the
Company's Common Stock AIC had acquired prior to the Company's bankruptcy
filing.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
TAC and AIC acquired the 6,488,356 shares for investment
purposes. TAC will continue to monitor and analyze the Company's operations and
opportunities, general market conditions, and various other investment
alternatives along with all other facts and circumstances in determining whether
additional interests in the Company should be purchased. Additional shares of
the Company's Common Stock may be acquired or sold in the open market or in
private transactions. The Company has entered into a Registration Rights
Agreement relating to the Common Stock held by TAC (and AIC). Except as
disclosed in this Schedule 13D, none of the reporting entities currently have an
agreement related to or which would otherwise result in any of the matters
described in Items 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D. As TAC continues investigation of
various investment opportunities, TAC may be involved in such matters and,
depending on the facts and circumstances at that time, may formulate a plan with
respect to such matters. In addition, the reporting parties may entertain
discussions with and proposals to the Company, to other shareholders of the
Company or to third parties, either at meetings of the Company's shareholders or
through independent negotiations with third parties.
<PAGE>
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
As to the Company's Common Stock as reorganized, TAC is the
direct beneficial owner of 6,488,356 shares and indirect beneficial owner of the
932 shares directly owned by AIC. AC and Anschutz are indirect beneficial owners
of 6,489,288 shares. Based upon 24,000,000 shares outstanding, AIC beneficially
owns less than .05% of the shares (i.e. 0.0% rounded to the nearest tenth of a
percent), TAC beneficially owns 26.5% of the shares, and AC and Anschutz may be
deemed to beneficially own 26.5% of the shares.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF ISSUER.
TAC has committed to exercise rights to purchase warrants for
470,580 shares of the Company's common stock, as reorganized, at $10.00 per
share. Accordingly, these shares have already been included as being
beneficially owned by TAC (and AC and Anschutz). The warrants are immediately
exercisable provided the Company: (1) registers the shares; (2) receives a no
action letter from the SEC that the shares are exempt from registration; or (3)
receives an opinion letter from counsel that the shares are exempt from
registration.
