SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In mid-September the Silsbee facility suffered a power outage causing a shutdown of the plant including the Advanced Reformer unit. In mid-October, after extensive engineering review and consultations with the technology licensor of the Advanced Reformer unit, it was determined that the unit's catalyst required replacement. Although the unit continues to operate, the product is not meeting design specifications thus negatively impacting the unit's expected financial benefit. We are working with the catalyst manufacturer to replace the catalyst in the fourth quarter. The estimated cost of replacement is $4 million. The replacement will be capitalized and depreciated.
