[X] As of March 30, 2000, 6,196,674 shares of common stock ("Common Stock") of the Registrant were outstanding. PART I Item 1. Business General Scotsman Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings" or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of Delaware in November 1993 for the purpose of acquiring Williams Scotsman, Inc. ("Scotsman"). The Company conducts business solely as a holding company, the only significant asset of which is the capital stock of Scotsman. Therefore, the Company is dependent upon the cash flows of Scotsman for all its cash needs. Founded in 1946, Scotsman is the second largest lessor of mobile office and storage units in the United States with over 79,500 units leased through 83 branch offices in 39 states and Canada. Scotsman's fleet provides high quality, cost-effective relocatable space solutions to over 24,000 customers in 467 industries including construction, education, healthcare and retail. In addition to its core leasing operations, Scotsman sells new and previously leased mobile office units and provides delivery, installation and other ancillary products and services. Scotsman's mobile office fleet is generally comprised of standardized, versatile products that can be configured to meet a wide variety of customer needs. The units are fitted with axles and hitches and are towed to various locations. Most units are wood frame construction, contain materials used in conventional buildings, and are equipped with air conditioning and heating, electrical outlets and, where necessary, plumbing facilities. Mobile office units are durable and have an estimated useful life of 20 years. Storage products are windowless and are typically used for secure storage space. There are generally two types: ground-level entry storage containers and storage trailers with axles and wheels. The basic storage unit features a roll-up or swing door at one end. Units are made of heavy exterior metals for security and water tightness. The average age of Scotsman's fleet of mobile office units is approximately 7 years while the average age of the total fleet is approximately 8 years. Based on its experience, management estimates that the U.S. mobile office industry (excluding manufacturing operations) is approximately $2.5 billion and has been growing in recent years. This growth has been primarily driven by population shifts, demographic trends, economic expansion, and the increased demand for outsourcing space needs (for example, school expansion programs, construction starts, recreation and entertainment activities). By outsourcing their space needs, Scotsman's customers are able to achieve flexibility, preserve capital for core operations, and convert fixed costs into variable costs. Scotsman purchases its new mobile office units through third-party suppliers and purchases storage units in the aftermarket directly from shipping companies or through brokers. Scotsman believes there are numerous manufacturers and suppliers of mobile office and storage units which supply these products at competitive prices throughout the United States. Scotsman anticipates being able to procure an adequate supply of product on acceptable terms for its projected operational requirements. Scotsman does not believe that the loss of any one of its suppliers would have a material adverse effect on its operations.

Acquisition of Evergreen Mobile Company On February 1, 1999, Scotsman acquired all of the outstanding stock of Evergreen Mobile Company, a privately held Washington corporation ("Evergreen"), at a net purchase price of $36.2 million, in a transaction accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. At the time of the acquisition, Evergreen was the largest mobile office dealer in the state of Washington with a fleet of approximately 2,000 units. (See note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) The acquisition was financed with borrowings under the Company's amended credit facility. 2 Acquisition of Space Master International, Inc. On September 1, 1998, Scotsman acquired all of the outstanding stock of Space Master International, Inc., a privately held Georgia corporation ("SMI"), at a net purchase price of $272.2 million, in a transaction accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. At the time of the acquisition, SMI was the third largest company in the U.S. mobile office industry ranked by fleet size, with a lease fleet of approximately 12,800 units through a network of 26 branches in 13 states, concentrated in the Southeast. (See note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) The acquisition was financed in part with borrowings under Scotsman's amended credit facility and in part with proceeds from the issuance of 1,278,939 shares of Holdings common stock (at a price of $50.67 per share) to its equity sponsors Cypress Merchant Banking Partners L.P., Cypress Offshore Partners L.P., Scotsman Partners, L.P. and Odyssey Investment Partners Fund, LP. Recapitalization Pursuant to a recapitalization agreement, on May 22, 1997, Holdings (i) repurchased 3,210,679 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate of approximately $293.8 million in cash and approximately $21.8 million in promissory notes which were repaid in January 1998 and (ii) issued 1,475,410 shares of common stock for an aggregate of approximately $135.0 million in cash. Such amounts have not been restated for the three-for-one stock split granted by Holdings in December 1997. In related transactions on the same date or in a series of subsequent transactions through December 1997, Holdings and Scotsman purchased or repaid all of the outstanding indebtedness. In conjunction with the debt extinguishment, the Company recognized an extraordinary loss of $18.3 million. The transactions described above are collectively referred to herein as the "Recapitalization". (See note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.) In connection with the Recapitalization, (i) Scotsman accelerated the payment of deferred compensation under its long term incentive plan, (ii) all outstanding stock options under Holdings' employee stock option plan vested and became immediately exercisable and (iii) Scotsman canceled a portion of the outstanding stock options. Accordingly, Scotsman recognized $5.1 million of Recapitalization expenses including $2.5 million in connection with the acceleration of deferred compensation and $2.6 million in connection with the cancellation of the stock options. In order to finance the Recapitalization, Scotsman issued $400 million in 9.875% senior notes due 2007 and entered into a $300 million revolving bank facility. Scotsman paid a dividend of $178.7 million to Holdings to effect certain transactions in connection with the Recapitalization. Operating Strategy Due to the local and regional nature of its business, Scotsman's goals are to become the leader in each of the local markets in which it competes and to expand its coverage to additional 3 local markets. To achieve market leadership, Scotsman has implemented a strategy which emphasizes (i) superior service, (ii) a well-maintained, readily-available and versatile lease fleet, (iii) effective fleet management using proprietary information systems, and (iv) targeted marketing through an experienced and motivated sales force. Scotsman believes that it is generally the first or second largest provider of relocatable space in each of its regional markets as measured by lease fleet size and revenues. Scotsman's branch offices are distributed throughout the United States and are located in a majority of the major metropolitan areas. Management's business and growth strategy includes the following: Fleet and Branch Expansion. Scotsman plans to continue to capitalize on the industry's favorable growth trends by increasing customer penetration and fleet size in existing markets. In addition, Scotsman plans to open branches in new markets where positive business fundamentals exist. From January 1, 1997 to December 31, 1999, Scotsman increased its number of branches from 56 to 83 and the number of units from approximately 40,600 to 79,500 as a result of acquisitions and general fleet expansion. Scotsman plans to continue expanding its network. Selective Fleet Acquisitions. To complement its fleet and branch expansion, Scotsman plans to capitalize on the industry's fragmentation and expand its geographic coverage by making selective acquisitions of mobile offices and storage product lease fleets. From January 1, 1997 to December 31, 1999, Scotsman made nine acquisitions of approximately 19,600 units for a total purchase price of $325.9 million, including the purchase of SMI in 1998, which added approximately 12,800 mobile office units at a total purchase price of $272.7 million. Units added through acquisitions have accounted for approximately 46% of the value of Scotsman's total fleet purchases during this period (approximately 15% excluding SMI). Ancillary Products and Services. Scotsman continues to identify new applications for its existing products, diversify into new product offerings and deliver ancillary products and services to leverage Scotsman's existing branch network. For example, in 1996, Scotsman began focusing on the market for storage product units, which are used for secured storage space. Since January 1, 1996, Scotsman has completed seven acquisitions totaling approximately 5,200 storage units. Ancillary products and services include the rental of steps, ramps and furniture. 4 Competition Although Scotsman's competition varies significantly by market, the mobile office industry, in general, is highly competitive. Scotsman competes primarily in terms of product availability, customer service and price. Scotsman believes that its reputation for customer service and its ability to offer a wide selection of units suitable for many varied uses at competitive prices allow it to compete effectively. However, certain of Scotsman's competitors are less leveraged, have greater market share or product availability in a given market and have greater financial resources than Scotsman. Employees At December 31, 1999, Scotsman employed 1,020 persons. None of Scotsman's employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. Scotsman considers its relationship with its employees to be good. The Company has no employees other than its officers, all of whom are also officers of Scotsman. Regulatory Matters The Company must comply with various federal, state and local environmental, health and safety laws and regulations in connection with its operations. The Company believes that it is in substantial compliance with these laws and regulations. In addition to compliance costs, the Company may incur costs related to alleged environmental damage associated with past or current properties owned or leased by the Company. The Company believes that its liability, if any, for any environmental remediation will have no material adverse effect on its financial condition. A portion of the Company's units is subject to regulation in certain states under motor vehicle and similar registration and certificate of title statutes. The Company believes that it has complied in all material respects with all motor vehicle registration and similar certificate of title statutes in states where such statutes clearly apply to mobile office units. If laws in other states are changed to require registration, the Company could be subject to additional costs, fees and taxes. The Company does not believe that these costs would be material to its financial condition. 5 Item 2. Properties Scotsman's headquarters is a three-story modular office structure located on 3.1 acres in suburban Baltimore, Maryland. Additionally, Scotsman leases approximately 74% of its 83 branch locations and owns the balance. Management believes that none of Scotsman's owned or leased facilities, individually, is material to the operations of Scotsman. Item 3. Legal Proceedings Scotsman is involved in certain legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Scotsman believes that none of these actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on Scotsman's business, results of operations or financial condition. The Company is not a party to any legal proceedings. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders None. 6 PART II Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Shareholder Matters There is no established public trading market for Holdings' Common Stock. During 1999, Scotsman paid dividends to Holdings totaling $55,000 for normal operating expenses. Scotsman does not intend to pay any further dividends in the foreseeable future, other than for the normal operating expenses of Holdings, but reserves the right to do so. Pursuant to the Scotsman Holdings, Inc. Amended and Restated 1997 Employee Stock Option Plan (the "1997 Plan"), options for 29,800 shares of Holdings common stock were granted during 1999. No options were excercised during 1999 and no shares of Holdings' common stock were issued during 1999 upon the exercise of previously granted options. 7 Item 6.

(1) Recapitalization expenses represent costs incurred in connection with the recapitalization of Holdings in May 1997. These expenses include $2.5 million in connection with the acceleration of deferred compensation and $2.6 million in connection with the cancellation of the stock options. (See note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) (2) The ratio of earnings to fixed charges is computed by dividing fixed charges into earnings from continuing operations before income taxes and extraordinary items plus fixed charges. Fixed charges include interest, expensed or capitalized, including amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discount and the estimated interest component of rent expense. (3) The Company defines EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, deferred compensation, non-cash compensation expense, recapitalization expenses, and extraordinary loss. EBITDA as defined by the Company does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity, nor should it be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance. 9 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion regarding the financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the three years ended December 31, 1999 should be read in conjunction with the more detailed information and Financial Statements included elsewhere herein. Certain statements in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" are forward-looking statements. See "Forward-Looking Statements". General On February 1, 1999, Scotsman acquired all of the outstanding stock of Evergreen Mobile Company. See "Acquisition of Evergreen Mobile Company." On September 1, 1998, Scotsman acquired all of the outstanding stock of Space Master International, Inc. See "Acquisition of Space Master International, Inc." During 1997, the Company and Scotsman completed a series of transactions pursuant to a Recapitalization Agreement. See "Recapitalization". The Company is a holding company formed in November 1993, and conducts its business solely through Scotsman, its wholly-owned subsidiary. Scotsman derives its revenues and earnings from the leasing and sale of mobile office and storage units, delivery and installation of those units and the provision of other ancillary products and services. Leasing operations account for a majority of Scotsman's revenues and gross profits. Used mobile office units are sold by Scotsman from its lease fleet in the ordinary course of its business at either fair market value or, to a lesser extent, pursuant to pre-established lease purchase options. The sale of used units results in the availability of the total cash proceeds and generally results in the reporting of gross profit on such sales. New unit sales revenues are derived from the sale of new mobile offices, similar to those units leased by Scotsman. Revenues from delivery and installation result from activities related to the transportation and installation of and site preparation for both leased and sold products. Other revenues are derived from other products and services including: rental of steps, furniture and ramps; sales of parts, supplies and security systems; and charges for granting insurance waivers and for damage billings. Although a portion of Scotsman's business is with customers in industries that are cyclical in nature and subject to changes in general economic conditions, management believes that certain characteristics of the mobile office leasing industry and Scotsman's operating strategies should help to mitigate the effects of economic downturns. These characteristics include (i) Scotsman's typical 10 lease terms which include contractual provisions requiring customers to retain units on lease for, on average, 12 months, (ii) the flexibility and low cost offered to Scotsman's customers by leasing which may be an attractive alternative to capital purchases, (iii) Scotsman's ability to redeploy units during regional recessions and (iv) the diversity of Scotsman's industry segments and the geographic balance of Scotsman's operations (historically during economic slowdowns, the construction industry, which represented 27% of its 1999 revenues, experiences declines in utilization rates, while other customer segments including education, which represented 19% of 1999 revenue, are more stable). Results of Operations 1999 Compared With 1998. Revenues in 1999 were $405.8 million, a $118.7 million or 41.3% increase from revenues of $287.1 million in 1998. The increase resulted from a $49.6 million or 32.6% increase in leasing revenue, a $26.6 million or 57.2% increase in new sales revenue, a $24.2 million or 51.6% increase in delivery and installation revenue, a $6.8 million or 44% increase in used sales revenue and a $11.5 million or 44.3% increase in other revenue. The increase in leasing revenue is attributable to a 32% increase in average lease fleet to approximately 75,500 units and an increase of $2 in the average monthly rental rate, offset by a decrease in the average fleet utilization of one percent to 85%. The increase in new and used sales revenue is primarily due to the overall branch expansion that the Company has experienced over the last several years. The increase in delivery and installation revenue is attributable to the increases in the leasing and new unit sales revenue as described above. Other revenue increased as a result of increases in the rental of steps, ramps and furniture as well as miscellaneous revenue related to services provided for customer owned units. Gross profit in 1999 was $203.2 million, a $57.8 million or 39.8% increase from 1998 gross profit of $145.3 million. The increase resulted from a $35.5 million or 35.1% increase in leasing gross profit, a $4.6 million or 56.5% increase in new sales gross profit, a $6.8 million or 56.3% increase in delivery and installation gross profit and a $9.6 million or 46.9% increase in gross profit from other revenues. The increase in leasing gross profit is a result in the increase in leasing revenue described above combined with an increase in leasing margins from 66.4 % in 1998 to 67.7% in 1999. Excluding depreciation and amortization, leasing margins increased slightly from 84.5% in 1998 to 84.8% in 1999. The increase in gross profit from new sales and delivery and installation are primarily due to the increases in revenue as discussed above. The increase in gross profit from other revenue is primarily related to the overall revenue increases noted above. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased by $13.3 million or 22.9% from 1998. The increase is the result of the growth experienced by the Company, both in terms of fleet size and number of branches as compared to 1998. The Company's branch network has expanded from 80 branches at December 31, 1998 to 83 branches at December 31, 1999, while the fleet has grown by approximately 9,400 units from December 31, 1998. The overall increases in SG&A expenses are due to increases in field related expenses, primarily payroll and occupancy, incurred in connection with this branch expansion and fleet growth and a full year impact of field 11 related costs associated with the SMI acquisition. Other depreciation and amortization increased from $9.6 million in 1998 to $15.9 million in 1999, $3.9 million of which relates to the amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets recorded in connection with both the Evergreen and SMI acquisitions (see note 2 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The remaining increase relates to depreciation on increased balances of property and equipment and inventories of steps and ramps associated with the overall growth of the Company's branch network and leased fleet as discussed above. Interest expense increased by 28.9% to $83.9 million in 1999 from $65.1 million in 1998. This increase is the result of the first full year effect of borrowings to finance the purchase of SMI in September 1998 and the result of financing the other fleet and branch growth, including the acquisition of Evergreen. The difference between the Company's reported tax provision for the year ended December 31, 1999 and the tax provision computed based on statutory rates is primarily attributable to non-deductible goodwill amortization expense of $5.1 million. 1998 Compared With 1997. Revenues in 1998 were $287.1 million, a $50.9 million or 21.6% increase from revenues of $236.2 million in 1997. The increase resulted from a $32.0 million or 26.6% increase in leasing revenue, a $2.4 million or 18.4% increase in used sales revenue, a $4.5 million or 10.8% increase in new sales revenue, a $8.4 million or 21.7% increase in delivery and installation revenue and a $3.6 million or 16.4% increase in other revenue. The increase in leasing revenue is attributable to a 30% increase in the average lease fleet to approximately 57,300 units, offset by a slight decrease in the average fleet utilization of less than one percentage point to 86% and a decrease of $4 in the average monthly rental rate. The decrease in the average monthly rental rate is a result of modest rate increases in Scotsman's major products offset by changes in fleet mix. The increase in new and used sales revenue is primarily due to the overall branch expansion that Scotsman has experienced over the last several years. The increase in delivery and installation revenue is attributable to the increases in the leasing and new unit sales revenue described above. Other revenue increased as a result of increases in the rental of steps, ramps and furniture as well as miscellaneous revenue related to services provided for customer-owned units. Gross profit in 1998 was $145.3 million, a $37.5 million or 34.8% increase from 1997 gross profit of $107.8 million. This increase is primarily a result of an increase in leasing gross profit of $29.8 million or 41.8%. The increase in gross profit from leasing is a result of the increase in leasing revenue described above combined with an increase in leasing margins from 59.2% in 1997 to 66.4% in 1998, primarily due to the change in the estimated residual value of rental equipment effective October 1, 1997. (See note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) Excluding depreciation and amortization, leasing margins were 84.5% for 1998, essentially unchanged from 84.6% in 1997. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased by $11.8 million or 25.6% 12 from 1997. Of this increase, $2.7 million relates to a non-cash stock option expense accrual recorded in accordance with variable plan accounting. The remaining increase is the result of the growth experienced by Scotsman, both in terms of fleet size and number of branches as compared to 1997. Scotsman's branch network has expanded from 72 branches at December 31, 1997 to 80 branches at December 31, 1998 while the fleet has grown by approximately 23,100 units from December 31, 1997. The overall increases in SG&A expenses are due to increases in field related expenses, primarily payroll and occupancy, incurred in connection with this branch expansion and fleet growth. Other depreciation and amortization increased from $2.9 million in 1997 to $9.6 million in 1998, $1.5 million of which relates to the amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets recorded in connection with the SMI acquisition (see note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). The remaining increase relates to depreciation on increased balances of property and equipment and inventories of steps and ramps associated with the overall growth of Scotsman's branch network and lease fleet as discussed above. Interest expense increased by 42.3% to $65.1 million in 1998 from $45.7 million in 1997. This increase is a result of the full year effect of borrowings to finance the Recapitalization in May 1997, and the purchase of SMI in September 1998, and as a result of financing the other fleet and branch growth. The difference between the Company's reported tax provision in 1998 and the tax provision computed based on U.S. statutory rates is primarily attributed to a change in estimate associated with the Company's deferred tax asset valuation allowance. During 1998, the Company recorded a charge to income tax expense of $3.4 million relating to the establishment of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance as a result of a change in management's tax planning strategies associated with the recoverability of certain net operating loss carryforwards. (See note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) In addition, the reported tax provision in 1998 reflects the impact of approximately $1.5 million of non-deductible amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets primarily associated with the SMI acquisition. Liquidity and Capital Resources During 1997, 1998, and 1999, the Company's principal sources of funds consisted of cash flow from operating and financing sources. Cash flow from operating activities of $31.7 million in 1997, $42.7 million in 1998 and $72.3 million in 1999 was largely generated by the rental of units from Scotsman's lease fleet and sales of new mobile office units. The Company has increased its EBITDA and believes that EBITDA provides the best indication of its financial performance and provides the best measure of its ability to meet historical debt service requirements. The Company defines EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, deferred compensation, non-cash compensation expense, recapitalization expenses, and extraordinary loss. EBITDA as defined by the Company does not represent cash flow 13 from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity, nor should it be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance. The Company's EBITDA increased by $25.2 million or 27.3% to $117.5 million in 1998 compared to $92.4 million in 1997. This increase in EBITDA is a result of increased leasing activity resulting from the overall increase in the number of units in the fleet, partially offset by a slight decline in utilization and average monthly rental rates, and increased SG&A expenses to support the increased activities during 1998. In 1997, the Company's EBITDA increased by $17.0 million or 22.6% to $92.4 million compared to $75.3 million in 1996. This increase in EBITDA is a result of increased leasing activity resulting from the overall increase in the number of units in the fleet and utilization, partially offset by a slight decline in average monthly rental rates and increased SG&A expenses to support the increased activities during 1997. Cash flow used in investing activities was $85.2 million in 1997, $390.4 million in 1998 and $142.7 million in 1999. Scotsman's primary capital expenditures are for the discretionary purchase of new units for the lease fleet and units purchased through acquisitions. Scotsman seeks to maintain its lease fleet in good condition at all times and generally increases the size of its lease fleet only in those local or regional markets experiencing economic growth and established unit demand. During 1997, 1998 and 1999, Scotsman significantly increased its net capital expenditures through purchases of new units for the rental fleet, capital improvements and betterments for existing units and the acquisition of existing rental fleets, including SMI. These expenditures increased the size of the rental fleet by approximately 6,400 units during 1997 and 23,100 during 1998 and 9,400 units during 1999. This increased activity was in response to increased customer demand and a continuation of Scotsman's fleet acquisition strategy. The following table sets forth Scotsman's investment in its lease fleet for the periods indicated.
Year Ended December 31, -------------------------- 1997 1998 1999 ------- -------- ------- (Dollars in millions) (Dollars in millions) Gross capital expenditures for rental equipment: New units and betterments................................ $ 80.0 $110.0 $115.0 Acquisitions, excluding acquired businesses.............. 7.4 9.2 -- ------ ------ ------ 87.4 119.2 115.0 Purchase price allocated to fleet of acquired businesses... -- 157.2 24.2 Proceeds from sale of used rental equipment................

14 Scotsman believes it can manage the capital requirements of its lease fleet, and thus its cash flow, through the careful monitoring of its lease fleet additions. During 1997, 1998 and 1999, Scotsman was able to sell used units in the ordinary course of business (excluding units sold pursuant to purchase options) at an average of more than 95% of their total capitalized cost and at a premium to net book value. Such capitalized costs include the cost of the unit as well as costs of significant improvements made to the unit. See further explanation below and note (2) of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Historically, Scotsman has recognized net gains on the sale of used units. Scotsman's maintenance and refurbishment program is designed to maintain the value of lease fleet units and realize rental rates and operating cash flows from older units comparable to those from newer units. The sale of used units helps preserve the overall quality of Scotsman's lease fleet and enhances cash flow. Generally, costs of improvements and betterments aggregating less than $1,000 per unit are expensed as incurred. Expenditures greater than $1,000 that significantly extend the economic useful life of a unit or that materially alter a unit's configuration are capitalized. Scotsman estimates that the current annual capital expenditures (net of costs to replace used units that are sold) necessary to maintain its lease fleet and facilities at their current size and condition is approximately $25 million. Other capital expenditures of $10.9 million, $13.9 million and $13.9 million in 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively, consist of those capital expenditures for items not directly related to the lease fleet, such as branch or headquarters equipment, leasehold improvements and management information systems. Cash provided by financing activities of $70.2 million in 1999 is comprised primarily of long-term borrowings. In 1999 Scotsman paid dividends to Holdings in the amount of $55,000 to fund normal operating expenses. Cash provided by financing activities of $347.3 million in 1998 is comprised primarily of long term borrowings and a capital contribution paid by Holdings to finance Scotsman's acquisition of SMI in September 1998. In 1998, Scotsman paid dividends to Holdings in the amount of $22.8 million primarily to effect the repayment of a promissory note of Holdings which was issued in connection with the Recapitalization. Cash provided by financing activities of $52.6 million in 1997 was primarily the result of a series of transactions related to the Recapitalization in May 1997, and is comprised of net borrowings from long term debt offset by dividends paid to Holdings primarily to effect the repurchase of its common stock and purchase its Senior Notes. In connection with the acquisition of SMI, Scotsman entered into an amended credit facility providing for revolver borrowings up to $540 million (subject to the satisfaction of certain requirements including a borrowing base test) and a $60 million term loan. Availability under the revolver is based on a borrowing base calculation, which was amended effective September 15, 15 1999, and was $74.0 million at December 31, 1999. Borrowings under the line may be used for working capital, acquisitions and general corporate purposes. At the Company's option, the revolving credit loans may be maintained as (a) Base Rate Loans which bear interest at the prime rate plus 1% or (b) Eurodollar Loans which bear interest at the Eurodollar Rate plus 2.25%. Beginning in 1998, the applicable margin used to calculate such interest rates may be reduced if the Company satisfies certain leverage ratios. Terms of the revolver, which matures May 21, 2002, are unchanged from the original credit agreement dated May 1997. The term loan, which matures May 21, 2005, bears interest at a rate of either prime plus 2.0% or the Eurodollar Rate plus 3.25%. Principal payments due on the term loan are equal to 1% per year for the first four years, with equal quarterly installments thereafter. The amended credit facility is guaranteed by Holdings and a subsidiary of the Company and is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all the assets of the Company, Holdings and such subsidiary. The amended credit facility contains certain covenants including restrictions against mergers, acquisitions, and disposition of assets, voluntary prepayments of debt, financial covenants and certain other covenants. The Company believes it will have, for the next 12 months, sufficient liquidity under its revolving line of credit and from cash generated from operations to meet its expected obligations as they arise. Seasonality Although demand from certain of Scotsman's customers is somewhat seasonal, Scotsman's operations as a whole are not seasonal to any significant extent. Inflation Scotsman believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its results of operations. However, an inflationary environment could materially increase interest rates on Scotsman's floating rate debt and the replacement cost of units in Scotsman's lease fleet. The price of used units sold by Scotsman could also increase in such an environment. Scotsman's standard 12- month lease term generally provides for annual rental rate escalation at the inflation rate as determined by the Consumer Price Index after the end of the initial lease term. In addition, Scotsman may seek to limit its exposure to interest rate fluctuations by utilizing certain hedging mechanisms, although it is under no obligation to do so. 16 Item 8.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 23 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation Scotsman Holdings, Inc. was organized in November 1993 for the purpose of acquiring Williams Scotsman (Scotsman). The operations of Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) consist of the leasing and sale of mobile offices, storage products, and their delivery and installation. Included in the operations of Scotsman are two wholly own subsidiaries, Willscot Equipment, LLC (Willscot) and Williams Scotsman of Canada, Inc., whose operations have not been significant to date. Willscot, a special purpose subsidiary, was formed in May 1997. The operations of Willscot are limited to the leasing of its mobile office units to Scotsman under a master lease and issuing the guarantee. Acquisition of Evergreen Mobile Company On February 1, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Evergreen Mobile Company, a privately held Washington corporation ("Evergreen"), in a transaction accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Total consideration for the acquisition of Evergreen was $36,208, including the repayment of existing indebtedness of Evergreen. The purchase price paid was allocated to the net assets acquired of $19,686 with the excess of $16,522 representing goodwill and other intangible assets. The purchase price allocation was based upon the estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired. These estimates may vary from actual amounts ultimately recorded. The acquisition was financed with borrowings under the Company's amended credit facility. Acquisition of Space Master International, Inc. On September 1, 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Space Master International, Inc., a privately held Georgia corporation ("SMI"), in a transaction accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Total consideration for the acquisition of SMI was $272,721, including the repayment of existing indebtedness of SMI. The purchase price paid was allocated to the net assets acquired of $111,568 with the excess of $161,153 representing goodwill and other intangible assets. The purchase price allocation was based upon estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired. The acquisition was financed in part with additional borrowings under the Company's amended credit facility and in part with equity contributed by Scotsman Holdings, Inc. 24 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation (continued) Acquisition of Space Master International, Inc. (continued) The pro forma unaudited results of operations of the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, assuming consummation of the Acquisition as of January 1, 1997 are as follows: 1998 1997 --------------------- Total revenue $345,609 $325,490 Income before extraordinary item 3,204 5,292 Net income (loss) 3,204 (3,135) Net income (loss) per basic share $ .96 $ (.94) Recapitalization In 1997, pursuant to a recapitalization agreement, the Company (i) repurchased 3,210,679 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate of approximately $293,777 in cash and approximately $21,834 in promissory notes due January 1998 and (ii) issued 1,475,410 shares of common stock for an aggregate of approximately $135,000 in cash. Such amounts have not been restated to reflect the 3-for-1 stock split granted by Holdings in December, 1997. In related transactions, (i) the Company purchased outstanding notes ($194,252 aggregate principal amount) for approximately $212,454, including accrued interest and fees, and (ii) Scotsman repaid all of its outstanding indebtedness ($119,017) under its prior credit facility. In conjunction with the debt extinguishment, the Company recognized an extraordinary loss of $18,333. In connection with the recapitalization, (i) Scotsman accelerated the payment of deferred compensation under its long term incentive plan, (ii) all outstanding stock options under the Company's employee stock option plan vested and became immediately exercisable and (iii) Scotsman canceled a portion of the outstanding stock options. Accordingly, the Company recognized $5,105 of recapitalization expenses including $2,489 in connection with the acceleration of deferred compensation and $2,616 in connection with the cancellation of the stock options. In order to finance the recapitalization, the Company issued $400,000 in notes and entered into a $300,000 revolving bank facility. Scotsman paid a dividend of $178,749 to the Company to pay recapitalization expenses, to repurchase common stock and to purchase certain notes. 25 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. (a) Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. (b) Leasing Operations Equipment is leased generally under operating leases and, occasionally, under sales-type lease arrangements. Operating lease terms generally range from 3 months to 60 months, and contractually averaged approximately 12 months at December 31, 1999. Rents billed in advance are initially deferred and recognized as revenue over the term of the operating leases. Rental equipment is depreciated by the straight-line method using an estimated economic useful life of 10 to 20 years and an estimated residual value of 50%. Effective October 1, 1997, the Company changed its estimated residual value from 20% to 50% to better reflect the estimated residual value of the equipment. The effect of this change in estimate is a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $2,800, and an increase in net income of approximately $1,841, or $0.27 per share, (net of the related tax expense) for the year ended December 31, 1997. Costs of improvements and betterments are capitalized, whereas costs of replacement items, repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred for equipment to meet particular lease specifications are capitalized and depreciated over the lease term. However, costs aggregating less than $1 per unit are generally expensed as incurred. (c) Deferred Financing Costs Costs of obtaining long-term debt are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the debt. 26 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (d) Property and Equipment Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 20 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 12 years for furniture and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. (e) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets The excess of cost over fair values of net assets acquired in purchase transactions has been recorded as goodwill and is being amortized on a straight line basis over 20 to 40 years. Other identifiable intangibles acquired of $4,360 include assembled workforce, covenant not to compete and customer base, which are being amortized on a straight-line basis over periods of 21 to 228 months. As of December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, accumulated amortization on goodwill and intangible assets was $6,817, $1,600, and $210, respectively. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates the carrying value of its intangible assets to determine if the facts and circumstances suggest that intangible assets may be impaired. If this review indicates that intangible assets may not be recoverable, as determined by the undiscounted cash flow of the entity acquired over the remaining amortization period, the Company's carrying value of intangible assets is reduced by the estimated shortfall of cash flows. (f) Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. 27 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (g) Revenue Recognition The Company's current revenue recognition policy is to recognize rental income in the month earned, sales revenue at the time the units are delivered and all other revenue when related services have been performed. (h) Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. (h) Earnings Per Share The following table sets forth the components of the weighted-average shares outstanding for the basic and diluted earnings per share computations: December 31 1999 1998 1997 ------------------------------------- Weighted-average shares-basic earnings per share 6,196,674 5,346,325 6,934,374 Effect of employee stock options 349,591 274,080 372,676 ----------------------------------- Weighted-average shares- diluted earnings per share 6,546,265 5,620,405 7,307,050 =================================== 3.

Long-Term Debt Long-term debt consists of the following: December 31 1999 1998 ----------------------- Borrowings under revolving credit facility $456,573 $385,597 Term loan 59,250 59,850 9.875% senior notes 400,000 400,000 --------------------- $915,823 $845,447 ====================== In connection with the acquisition of SMI, the loan agreement for the credit facility was amended to provide for a $540,000 revolving credit facility maturing May 21, 2002 and a $60,000 term loan maturing May 21, 2005. Availability under the revolver is based upon a borrowing base calculation which was amended in September 1999 and was $74,047 at December 31,1999. Interest is payable at a rate of either prime plus 1.0% or the Eurodollar rate plus 2.25%. Such rates will vary based upon specified leverage ratio thresholds. The weighted average interest rate of the revolver under the credit agreement was 8.33% at December 31, 1999. Principal payments due on the term loan are equal to 1% per year for the first four years, with equal quarterly installments thereafter. Interest on the term loan is payable at a rate of either prime plus 2.0% or the Eurodollar rate plus 3.25%. The weighted average interest rate of the term loan under the credit agreement was 9.38% at December 31, 1999. Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by a first priority lien on and security interest in the Company's rental equipment, accounts receivable and property and equipment. In addition to the restrictions and limitations described under the note agreement, the credit facility loan agreement requires compliance with certain financial covenants including capital expenditures, interest coverage and fleet utilization. The 9.875% senior notes are due June 1, 2007 with interest payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year. On or after June 1, 2002, the notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, at redemption prices of 104.938% and 102.469% during the 12 month periods beginning June 1, 2002 and 2003, respectively, and 100% thereafter. Upon the occurrence of a change of control, the notes may be redeemed as a whole at the option of the Company at a redemption price of 100% plus the applicable premium as defined in the agreement. 29 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 4. Long Term Debt (continued) Additionally, on or prior to June 1, 2000, the Company, at its option, may redeem up to $160,000 of notes, with the proceeds of a public equity offering at a redemption price of 109.875%. The notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and are subordinated in right of payment to all secured indebtedness, including the new revolving credit facility. Additionally, the notes are guaranteed by Scotsman's wholly- owned subsidiary, Willscot. Such guaranty is unconditional and joint and several. The note agreement limits or restricts the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness; make distributions of capital in an amount not to exceed 50% of accumulated earnings, excluding the recapitalization-related distribution; dispose of property; incur liens on property and merge with or acquire other companies. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the fair value of long-term debt was approximately $895,823 and $863,000, respectively, based on the quoted market price of the senior notes and the book value of the revolving credit facilities, which are adjustable rate notes. Letter of credit obligations at December 31, 1999 were $4,448. 30 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 5. Income Taxes Deferred income taxes related to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and the respective amounts reported in the financial statements are summarized as follows:
December 31 1999 1998 -------------------------- Deferred tax liabilities: Cost basis in excess of tax basis of assets and accelerated tax depreciation: Rental equipment $181,786 $155,812 Property and equipment 1,074 1,074 Other 2,553 1,368 ---------------------- Total deferred tax liabilities 185,413 158,254 ---------------------- Deferred tax assets: Allowance for doubtful accounts 408 315 Rents billed in advance 9,279 8,063 Net operating loss carryovers 57,104 53,545 Alternative minimum tax credit carryovers 1,759 1,465 Investment tax credit carryovers 860 860 Other 5,556 4,282 ---------------------- 74,966 68,530 Less: valuation allowance (3,400) (3,400) ---------------------- Total deferred tax assets 71,566 65,130 ====================== Net deferred tax liabilities $113,847 $ 93,124 ======================
At December 31, 1999, the Company had net operating loss carryovers available for federal income tax purposes of $140,665 (net of related valuation allowance), of which $80,186 (net of related valuation allowance) relates to pre-recapitalization loss carryovers that are subject to certain limitations under the Internal Revenue Code. These net operating loss carryovers and the investment tax credit carryovers of approximately $860 expire at various dates from 2003 to 2019. Also, alternative minimum tax credit carryovers of approximately $1,759 are available without expiration limitations. During 1998, the Company recorded a charge to income tax expense of $3,400 relating to the establishment of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance as a result of a change in management's tax planning strategies associated with the recoverability of certain net operating loss carryforwards. 31 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 5. Income Taxes (continued) The income tax expense (benefit) consists of the following: Years ended December 31 1999 1998 1997 --------------------------------- Current $ 876 $ 150 $ 150 Deferred 13,818 8,582 (3,765) --------------------------------- $14,694 $8,732 $(3,615) ================================= Federal $12,596 $7,482 $(3,634) State 2,098 1,250 19 --------------------------------- $14,694 $8,732 $(3,615) ================================= The provision for income taxes (benefit) is reconciled to the amount computed by applying the Federal corporate tax rate of 35% to income (loss) before income taxes as follows: Years ended December 31 1999 1998 1997 --------------------------------- Income tax (benefit) at statutory rate $11,188 $4,360 $(3,695) State income taxes, net of federal tax benefit 1,144 449 12 Amortization of goodwill and other 1,838 567 - Intangible assets Increase in valuation allowance - 3,400 - Other 524 (44) 68 -------------------------------- $14,694 $8,732 $(3,615) ================================ 6. Commitments The Company is obligated under noncancellable operating leases of certain equipment, vehicles and parcels of land. At December 31, 1999 approximate future minimum rental payments are as follows: 2000 $ 3,878 2001 3,266 2002 2,175 2003 1,462 2004 981 Thereafter 2,764 ------- $14,526 ======= Rent expense was $7,918 in 1999, $5,947 in 1998, and $4,231 in 1997. 32 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 7. Employee Benefit Plans The Company has adopted a defined contribution plan (the 401(k) Plan) which is intended to satisfy the tax qualification requirements of Sections 401(a), 401(k), and 401(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the Code). The 401(k) Plan covers substantially all employees and permits participants to contribute the lessor of (i) 15% of their annual compensation from the Company or (ii) the dollar limit described in Section 402(g) of the Code ($10,000 in 1999). All amounts deferred under this salary reduction feature are fully vested. The 401(k) Plan has a "matching" contribution feature under which the Company may contribute a percentage of the amount deferred by each participant. Such percentage, if any, is determined by the Board of Directors at their discretion. The Plan also has a "profit sharing" feature, under which the Company may contribute, at its discretion, an additional amount allocable to the accounts of active participants meeting the aforementioned eligibility requirements. Contributions made by the Company on behalf of a 401(k) Plan participant vest ratably during the first five years of employment and 100% thereafter. Matching contributions by the Company to the 401(k) Plan were approximately $395 in 1999, $329 in 1998, and $309 in 1997. No contributions have been made by the Company under the profit sharing feature. During 1997 the Company adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan for Executives which is meant to be an unfunded deferred compensation plan maintained for a select group of management within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This plan allows key employees to defer a specified amount of their compensation until termination or upon the occurrence of other specified events. Such amounts are placed in the investment vehicles of the employee's choice. As of December 31, 1999, the total amount deferred under this plan, including earnings, was $2,700. 33 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 7. Employee Benefit Plans (continued) In December 1997, the Company adopted a stock option plan for certain key employees. The plan was subsequently amended and restated in 1998. Under the plan, as amended, up to 479,500 options to purchase Holdings' outstanding common stock may be granted. The options are granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares as of the date of grant. Fifty percent of the options granted vest ratably over five years, and fifty percent vest ratably based on the Company meeting certain financial goals over the next five years. All options expire 10 years from the date of grant. The Company is accounting for the options using the variable plan accounting. Under this plan, 29,800 and 112,550 options were granted in 1999 and 1998, respectively. For those options in which both the grant date and the measurement date were known in 1999, the Company recognized $1,899 of compensation expense and $2,725 was recognized in 1998. No expense was recognized in 1997. The Company also adopted a stock option plan for certain key employees in March 1995. The options were granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares as of the date of grant. The Company accounted for stock option grants under this plan in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and, accordingly, recognizes no compensation expense for the stock option grants. All options outstanding under this plan became fully vested in conjunction with the recapitalization. In addition, employees with these options were given the opportunity to cancel their options at a price of $30.50 per option. As a result, 128,400 of the outstanding options were canceled in 1997. The difference between the $30.50 and the option exercise price has been recorded as recapitalization expense in the consolidated statement of operations. Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the minimum value method of that Statement. The minimum value for these options was estimated at the date of grant by calculating the excess of the fair value of the stock at the date of grant over the present value of both the exercise price and the expected dividend payments, each discounted at the risk free rate, over the expected exercise life of the option. The following weighted average assumptions were used for 1999, 1998, and 1997 risk-free interest rate of 5.6%, 5.5%, and 6%, respectively; weighted average expected life of the options of 5 years; and no dividends. 34 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 7. Employee Benefit Plans (continued) For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated minimum value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. Note that the effects of applying SFAS 123 for pro forma disclosure in the current year are not necessarily representative of the effects on pro forma net income for future years. The Company's pro forma information follows: 1999 1998 1997 -------------------------------- Pro forma net income (loss) $16,910 $3,111 $(8,854) Pro forma earnings (loss) per share $ 2.73 $ 0.55 $ (1.21) A summary of stock option activity and related information for the years ended December 31 follows:

Exercise prices for options outstanding as of December 31, 1999 range from $4.59 to $50.67. The weighted-average remaining contractual life of those options is 7.1 years. Prior to the recapitalization (described in Note 1), the Company had an Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan) that covered approximately 40 management members. In connection with the Plan, the Company recorded $2,925, and $1,800 of management incentive compensation in 1997 and 1996 respectively, a portion of which was deferred. In 1997, as part of the recapitalization, the Company accelerated the payment of deferred compensation in the amount of $6,225 and the Plan was dissolved. 35 Report of Independent Auditors Board of Directors Williams Scotsman, Inc. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Williams Scotsman, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholder's equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These consolidated financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the 1999 and 1998 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Williams Scotsman, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 41 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation Williams Scotsman, Inc. (the Company) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scotsman Holdings, Inc. (Holdings), a corporation which was organized in November 1993 for the purpose of acquiring the Company. The Company's operations include two wholly owned subsidiaries, Willscot Equipment, LLC (Willscot) and Williams Scotsman of Canada, Inc., whose operations have not been significant to date. Willscot, a special purpose subsidiary, was formed in May 1997 and is a guarantor of the Company's credit facility and acts as an unconditional and joint and several subordinated guarantor of the 9.875% senior notes. The operations of Willscot are limited to the leasing of its mobile office units to the Company under a master lease and issuing the guarantee. The operations of the Company consist primarily of the leasing and sale of mobile offices and storage products (equipment) and their delivery and installation. Acquisition of Evergreen Mobile Company On February 1, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Evergreen Mobile Company, a privately held Washington corporation ("Evergreen"), in a transaction accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Total consideration for the acquisition of Evergreen was $36,208, including the repayment of existing indebtedness of Evergreen. The purchase price paid was allocated to the net assets acquired of $19,686 with the excess of $16,522 representing goodwill and other intangible assets. The purchase price allocation was based upon the estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired. These estimates may vary from actual amounts ultimately recorded. The acquisition was financed with borrowings under the Company's amended credit facility. Acquisition of Space Master International, Inc. On September 1, 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Space Master International, Inc., a privately held Georgia corporation ("SMI"), in a transaction accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Total consideration for the acquisition of SMI was $272,721, including the repayment of existing indebtedness of SMI. The purchase price paid was allocated to the net assets acquired of $111,568 with the excess of $161,153 representing goodwill and other intangible assets. The purchase price allocation was based upon estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired. The acquisition was financed in part with additional borrowings under the Company's amended credit facility and in part with equity contributed by Scotsman Holdings, Inc. 42 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation (continued) Acquisition of Space Master International, Inc. (continued) The pro forma unaudited results of operations for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, assuming consummation of the Acquisition as of January 1, 1997 are as follows: 1998 1997 ------------------------ Total revenue $345,609 $325,490 Income before extraordinary item 3,204 5,292 Net income (loss) 3,204 (3,135) Net income (loss) per basic share $ .96 $ (.94) Recapitalization In 1997, pursuant to a recapitalization agreement, Holdings (i) repurchased 3,210,679 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate of approximately $293,777 in cash and approximately $21,834 in promissory notes due January 1998 and (ii) issued 1,475,410 shares of common stock for an aggregate of approximately $135,000 in cash. Such amounts have not been restated to reflect the 3-for-1 stock split granted by Holdings in December, 1997. In related transactions, (i) Holdings purchased outstanding notes ($194,252 aggregate principal amount) for approximately $212,454, including accrued interest and fees, and (ii) the Company repaid all of its outstanding indebtedness ($119,017) under its prior credit facility. In conjunction with the debt extinguishment, the Company recognized an extraordinary loss of $13,719. In connection with the recapitalization, (i) the Company accelerated the payment of deferred compensation under its long term incentive plan, (ii) all outstanding stock options under Holdings' employee stock option plan vested and became immediately exercisable and (iii) the Company canceled a portion of the outstanding stock options. Accordingly, the Company recognized $5,105 of recapitalization expenses including $2,489 in connection with the acceleration of deferred compensation and $2,616 in connection with the cancellation of the stock options. In order to finance the recapitalization, the Company issued $400,000 in notes and entered into a $300,000 revolving bank facility. The Company paid a dividend of $178,749 to Holdings to pay recapitalization expenses, to repurchase common stock and to purchase certain notes. 43 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. (a) Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. (b) Leasing Operations Equipment is leased generally under operating leases and, occasionally, under sales-type lease arrangements. Operating lease terms generally range from 3 months to 60 months, and contractually averaged approximately 12 months at December 31, 1999. Rents billed in advance are initially deferred and recognized as revenue over the term of the operating leases. Rental equipment is depreciated by the straight-line method using an estimated economic useful life of 10 to 20 years and an estimated residual value of 50%. Effective October 1, 1997, the Company changed its estimated residual value from 20% to 50% to better reflect the estimated residual value of the equipment. The effect of this change in estimate is a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $2,800, and an increase in net income of approximately $1,826, or $0.55 per share, (net of the related tax expense) for the year ended December 31, 1997. Costs of improvements and betterments are capitalized, whereas costs of replacement items, repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred for equipment to meet particular lease specifications are capitalized and depreciated over the lease term. However, costs aggregating less than $1 per unit are generally expensed as incurred. 44 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (c) Deferred Financing Costs Costs of obtaining long-term debt are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the debt. (d) Property and Equipment Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 20 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 12 years for furniture and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. (e) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets The excess of cost over fair values of net assets acquired in purchase transactions has been recorded as goodwill and is being amortized on a straight line basis over 20 to 40 years. Other identifiable intangibles acquired of $4,360 include assembled workforce, covenant not to compete and customer base which are being amortized on a straight line basis over periods of 21 to 228 months. As of December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, accumulated amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets was $6,817, $1,600, and $210, respectively. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates the carrying value of its intangible assets to determine if the facts and circumstances suggest that intangible assets may be impaired. If this review indicates that intangible assets may not be recoverable, as determined by the undiscounted cash flow of the entity acquired over the remaining amortization period, the Company's carrying value of intangible assets is reduced by the estimated shortfall of cash flows. (f) Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. 45 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (g) Earnings Per Share Earnings per share is computed based on weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 3,320,000 shares for 1999, 1998 and 1997. (h) Revenue Recognition The Company's current revenue recognition policy is to recognize rental income in the month earned, sales revenue at the time the units are delivered, and all other revenue when related services have been performed. (i) Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. 3. Property and Equipment Property and equipment consist of the following: December 31 1999 1998 ---------------------- Land $ 9,562 $ 6,988 Buildings and improvements 24,369 18,942 Furniture and equipment 36,406 30,429 --------------------- 70,337 56,359 Less accumulated depreciation 16,263 9,680 --------------------- Net property and equipment $54,074 $46,679 ===================== 46 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 4. Long-Term Debt Long-term debt consists of the following: December 31 1999 1998 ----------------------- Borrowings under revolving credit facility $456,573 $385,597 Term loan 59,250 59,850 9.875% senior notes 400,000 400,000 --------------------- $915,823 $845,447 ===================== In connection with the acquisition of SMI, the loan agreement for the credit facility was amended to provide for a $540,000 revolving credit facility maturing May 21, 2002 and a $60,000 term loan maturing May 21, 2005. Availability under the revolver is based upon a borrowing base calculation, which was amended effective September 15, 1999, and was $74,047 at December 31,1999. Interest is payable at a rate of either prime plus 1.0% or the Eurodollar rate plus 2.25%. Such rates will vary based upon specified leverage ratio thresholds. The weighted average interest rate of the revolver under the credit agreement was 8.33% at December 31, 1999. Principal payments due on the term loan are equal to 1% per year for the first four years, with equal quarterly installments thereafter. Interest on the term loan is payable at a rate of either prime plus 2.0% or the Eurodollar rate plus 3.25%. The weighted average interest rate of the term loan under the credit agreement was 9.38% at December 31, 1999. Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by a first priority lien on and security interest in the Company's rental equipment, accounts receivable and property and equipment. In addition to the restrictions and limitations described under the note agreement, the credit facility loan agreement requires compliance with certain financial covenants including capital expenditures, interest coverage and fleet utilization. 47 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 4. Long Term Debt (continued) The 9.875% senior notes are due June 1, 2007 with interest payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year. On or after June 1, 2002, the notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, at redemption prices of 104.938% and 102.469% during the 12 month periods beginning June 1, 2002 and 2003, respectively, and 100% thereafter. Upon the occurrence of a change of control, the notes may be redeemed as a whole at the option of the Company at a redemption price of 100% plus the applicable premium as defined in the agreement. Additionally, on or prior to June 1, 2000, the Company, at its option, may redeem up to $160,000 of notes, with the proceeds of a public equity offering at a redemption price of 109.875%. The notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and are subordinated in right of payment to all secured indebtedness, including the new revolving credit facility. Additionally, the notes are guaranteed by Willscot, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary. Such guaranty is unconditional and joint and several. The note agreement limits or restricts the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness; make distributions of capital in an amount not to exceed 50% of accumulated earnings, excluding the recapitalization-related distribution; dispose of property; incur liens on property and merge with or acquire other companies. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the fair value of long-term debt was approximately $895,823 and $863,000, respectively, based on the quoted market price of the senior notes and the book value of the revolving credit facilities, which are adjustable rate notes. Letter of credit obligations at December 31, 1999 were $4,448. 48 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 5. Income Taxes Deferred income taxes related to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and the respective amounts reported in the financial statements are summarized as follows: December 31 1999 1998 ----------------------- Deferred tax liabilities: Cost basis in excess of tax basis of assets and accelerated tax depreciation: Rental equipment $181,786 $155,812 Property and equipment 1,074 1,074 Other 2,552 1,367 --------------------- Total deferred tax liabilities 185,412 158,253 --------------------- Deferred tax assets: Allowance for doubtful accounts 408 315 Rents billed in advance 9,279 8,063 Net operating loss carryovers 51,671 48,131 Alternative minimum tax credit carryovers 1,759 1,465 Investment tax credit carryovers 860 860 Other 5,556 4,282 --------------------- 69,533 63,116 Less: valuation allowance (3,400) (3,400) --------------------- Total deferred tax assets 66,133 59,716 ===================== Net deferred tax liabilities $119,279 $ 98,537 ===================== At December 31, 1999, the Company had net operating loss carryovers available for federal income tax purposes of $125,141 (net of related valuation allowance), of which $80,186 (net of related valuation allowance) relates to pre-recapitalization loss carryovers that are subject to certain limitations under the Internal Revenue Code. These net operating loss carryovers and investment tax credit carryovers of approximately $860 expire at various dates from 2003 to 2019. Also, alternative minimum tax credit carryovers of approximately $1,759 are available without expiration limitations. During 1998, the Company recorded a charge to income tax expense of $3,400, relating to the establishment of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance as a result of a change in management's tax planning strategies associated with the recoverability of certain net operating loss carryforwards. 49 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 5. Income Taxes (continued) The income tax expense (benefit) consists of the following: Years ended December 31 1999 1998 1997 ------------------------------- Current $ 876 $ 150 $ 150 Deferred 13,837 8,618 (1,456) ----------------------------- $14,713 $8,768 $(1,306) ============================= Federal $12,615 $7,518 $(1,325) State 2,098 1,250 19 ----------------------------- $14,713 $8,768 $(1,306) ============================= The provision for income taxes is reconciled to the amount computed by applying the Federal corporate tax rate of 35% to income before income taxes as follows: Years ended December 31 1999 1998 1997 ------------------------------- Income tax at statutory rate $11,207 $4,396 $(1,314) State income taxes, net of federal tax 1,144 449 12 benefit Amortization of goodwill and other 1,838 567 - intangible assets Increase in valuation allowance - 3,400 - Other 524 (44) (4) ----------------------------- $14,713 $8,768 $(1,306) ============================= 50 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 6. Commitments The Company is obligated under noncancelable operating leases of certain equipment, vehicles and parcels of land. At December 31, 1999 approximate future minimum rental payments are as follows: 2000 $ 3,878 2001 3,266 2002 2,175 2003 1,462 2004 981 Thereafter 2,764 ------- $14,526 ======= Rent expense was $7,918 in 1999, $5,947 in 1998, and $4,231 in 1997. 7. Employee Benefit Plans The Company has adopted a defined contribution plan (the 401(k) Plan) which is intended to satisfy the tax qualification requirements of Sections 401(a), 401(k), and 401(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the Code). The 401(k) Plan covers substantially all employees and permits participants to contribute the lesser of (i) 15% of their annual compensation from the Company or (ii) the dollar limit described in Section 402(g) of the Code ($10,000 in 1999). All amounts deferred under this salary reduction feature are fully vested. The 401(k) Plan has a "matching" contribution feature under which the Company may contribute a percentage of the amount deferred by each participant. Such percentage, if any, is determined by the Board of Directors at their discretion. The Plan also has a "profit sharing" feature, under which the Company may contribute, at its discretion, an additional amount allocable to the accounts of active participants meeting the aforementioned eligibility requirements. Contributions made by the Company on behalf of a 401(k) Plan participant vest ratably during the first five years of employment and 100% thereafter. Matching contributions by the Company to the 401(k) Plan were approximately $395 in 1999, $329 in 1998, and $309 in 1997. No contributions have been made by the Company under the profit sharing feature. 51 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 7. Employee Benefit Plans (continued) During 1997 the Company adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan for Executives which is meant to be an unfunded deferred compensation plan maintained for a select group of management within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This plan allows key employees to defer a specified amount of their compensation until termination or upon the occurrence of other specified events. Such amounts are placed in the investment vehicles of the employee's choice. As of December 31, 1999, the total amount deferred under this plan, including earnings, was $2,700. In December 1997, the Company adopted a stock option plan for certain key employees. The plan was subsequently amended and restated in 1998. Under the plan, as amended, up to 479,500 options to purchase Holdings' outstanding common stock may be granted. The options are granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares as of the date of grant. Fifty percent of the options granted vest ratably over five years, and fifty percent vest ratably based on the Company meeting certain financial goals over the next five years. All options expire 10 years from the date of grant. The Company is accounting for the options using the variable plan accounting. Under this plan, 29,800 and 112,550 options were granted in 1999 and 1998, respectively. For those options in which both the grant date and the measurement date were known in 1999, the Company recognized $1,899 of compensation expense, and $2,725 was recognized in 1998. No compensation expense was recognized in 1997. The Company also adopted a stock option plan for certain key employees in March 1995. The options were granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares as of the date of grant. The Company accounted for stock option grants under this plan in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and, accordingly, recognizes no compensation expense for the stock option grants. All options outstanding under this plan became fully vested in conjunction with the recapitalization. In addition, employees with these options were given the opportunity to cancel their options at a price of $30.50 per option. As a result, 128,400 of the outstanding options were canceled in 1997. The difference between the $30.50 and the option exercise price has been recorded as recapitalization expense in the consolidated statement of operations. 52 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 7. Employee Benefit Plans (continued) Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the minimum value method of that Statement. The minimum value for these options was estimated at the date of grant by calculating the excess of the fair value of the stock at the date of grant over the present value of both the exercise price and the expected dividend payments, each discounted at the risk free rate, over the expected exercise life of the option. The following weighted average assumptions were used for 1999, 1998 and 1997: risk-free interest rate of 5.6%, 5.5%, and 6%, respectively; weighted average expected life of the options of 5 years; and no dividends. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated minimum value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. Note that the effects of applying SFAS 123 for pro forma disclosure in the current year are not necessarily representative of the effects on pro forma net income for future years. The Company's pro forma information follows: 1999 1998 1997 --------------------------------- Pro forma net income (loss) $16,946 $3,178 $(4,360) Pro forma earnings (loss) per share $ 5.10 $ 0.96 $ (1.31) 53 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 7.

Exercise prices for options outstanding as of December 31, 1999 range from $4.59 to $50.67. The weighted-average remaining contractual life of those options is 7.19 years. Prior to the recapitalization (described in Note 1), the Company had an Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan) that covered approximately 40 management members. In connection with the Plan, the Company recorded $2,925 of management incentive compensation in 1997, a portion of which was deferred. In 1997, as part of the recapitalization, the Company accelerated the payment of deferred compensation in the amount of $6,225 and the Plan was dissolved. 54 Williams Scotsman, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 8. Summarized Financial Information of Subsidiaries The 9.875% senior notes issued by the Company are guaranteed by its wholly owned subsidiary, Willscot. See Note 2 for a description of the operations of this subsidiary. Additionally, Willscot has entered into a management agreement with the Company whereby it pays a fee to the Company in an amount equal to the rental and other income (net of depreciation expense) it earns from the Company. Therefore, Willscot earns no net income. Full separate financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries have not been included because management has determined they are not material to investors. Summarized financial statements of those subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 and for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 are as follows:

______________ (1) No options were exercised by the Named Executive Officers during fiscal 1999. (2) For options granted under the 1997 Plan, 50% vest ratably over five years and 50% vest ratably based on the Company meeting certain financial targets over the next five years. All other options became fully vested in conjunction with the Recapitalization. (3) Based on the estimated fair market value at December 31, 1999. 64 Scotsman Holdings, Inc. 1994 Employee Stock Option Plan In March 1995, a stock option plan was adopted for certain key employees. All options outstanding under this plan became fully vested in conjunction with the Recapitalization. The options are exercisable for a period of 10 years from date of grant. Scotsman Holdings, Inc. Amended and Restated 1997 Employee Stock Option Plan In December 1997, a stock option plan was adopted for certain key employees, which was amended and restated in December 1998. Under the plan, up to 479,500 options to purchase Holdings' common stock may be granted. In 1999, 29,800 options were granted under this plan at an offer price of $50.67 per share. Fifty percent of the options granted vest ratably over five years and fifty percent vest ratably based on the Company meeting certain financial targets over the next five years. All options expire 10 years from the date of grant. 401(k)/Defined Contribution Plan On May 1, 1993, Scotsman adopted a defined contribution plan (the "401(k) Plan") which is intended to satisfy the tax qualification requirements of Sections 401(a), 401(k), and 401(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Each employee of Scotsman who completes one hour of service with Scotsman is eligible to participate in the salary reduction feature of the 401(k) Plan. The 401(k) Plan permits participants to contribute the lesser of (i) 15% of their annual compensation from Scotsman or (ii) the dollar limit described in Section 402(g) of the Code ($10,500 in 1999). All amounts deferred under the 401(k) Plan's salary reduction feature by a participant are fully vested. The 401(k) Plan has a "matching" contribution feature under which Scotsman may contribute a percentage of the amount deferred by each participant who makes salary reduction deferrals to the 401(k) Plan, has been employed for 12 consecutive months by Scotsman, completes 1,000 hours of service with Scotsman during the Plan year and is employed by Scotsman on the last day of the year. This percentage, if any, is determined by the Board of Directors at their discretion and is communicated to 401(k) Plan participants during the year for which the matching contribution will be made. Matching contributions made on behalf of a 401(k) Plan participant are subject to a deferred vesting schedule based on the number of years a participant has been employed by Scotsman. A participant becomes 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% vested in the matching contributions made to the 401(k) Plan on his or her behalf after completion of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years of service with Scotsman, respectively. The 401(k) Plan also has a "profit sharing" feature, under which Scotsman may contribute, in its discretion, an additional amount which is allocated to the accounts of active participants who have been employed for 12 consecutive months by Scotsman, who have completed 1,000 hours of 65 service during the Plan Year and who are employed on the last day of the year, based on such participants' compensation for the year. The vesting schedule for these contributions is identical to that for matching contributions. A participant's 401(k) Plan benefits generally are payable upon the participant's death, disability, retirement, or other termination of employment. Payments under the 401(k) Plan are made in a lump sum. In 1999, Scotsman made matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan participants in an aggregate amount of $394,694. Deferred Compensation Plan for Executives During 1997, Scotsman adopted a deferred compensation plan for executives (the "Plan") which is meant to be an unfunded deferred compensation plan maintained for a select group of management within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401 (a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The Plan allows key employees to defer a specified amount of their compensation until termination or upon the occurrence of other specified events. Such amounts are placed in the investment vehicles of the employee's choice. As of December 31, 1999, the total amount deferred under this Plan, including earnings, was $2,699,629. Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation During 1998, the Compensation Committee was comprised of two outside directors: Daniel L. Doctoroff and David P. Spalding. No member of the Committee has any interlocking or insider relationship with the Company which is required to be reported under the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 66 Item 12.

(collectively the "Investor Group"), the Management Stockholders and Holdings are parties to a Management Stockholders' and Optionholders' Agreement dated as of September 14, 1998 (the "Stockholders' Agreement"), which contains certain rights and restrictions with respect to the transfer of each Management Stockholder's shares of Common Stock. The Stockholders' Agreement prohibits the transfer of any shares of Common Stock by Management Stockholders (other than sales required in connection with the disposition of all shares of Common Stock owned by the Investor Group and its affiliates) until the earlier of twelve months after an initial public offering of the equity of Holdings for designated officers (and sixty days after an initial public offering for non-designated officers) or the day after the Investor Group and its affiliates have disposed of more than 33-1/3% of the shares of Common Stock originally acquired by the Investor Group, and thereafter, the aggregate number of shares which may be transferred by each Management Stockholder in any calendar year (other than certain required sales) may not exceed 25% of the number of shares acquired pursuant to the Subscription Agreement between Holdings and such Management Stockholder plus the number of any shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of stock purchase options. In addition, the Stockholders' Agreement restricts the transfer of shares of Common Stock by each Management Stockholder for a period of five years from the date of purchase of such shares, except certain permitted transfers and transfers pursuant to an effective registration statement or in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

In addition, upon termination of any Management Stockholder's employment, Holdings may elect to require such Management Stockholder to sell to Holdings all of his shares. 70 Investor Stockholders Agreement On May 22, 1997, Holdings, certain partnerships affiliated with The Cypress Group, L.L.C.

Under the terms of the Investor Stockholders Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to by the Investor Stockholders, the board of directors of Holdings (the "Board of Directors") will consist of nine directors: three persons nominated by the Cypress Stockholders, three persons nominated by Scotsman Partners, one person nominated by Odyssey Investment Group, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the President of Holdings. Each of Cypress Stockholders, Scotsman Partners and Odyssey Investment Group is entitled to remove and replace any or all of their respective designees on the Board of Directors and each is entitled to remove the director or directors who are the Chairman of the Board and the President of Holdings in accordance with the provisions of the Investor Stockholders Agreement. If the Holdings Common Stock held by either the Cypress Stockholders or Scotsman Partners is reduced to an amount less than 20% of the outstanding Holdings Common Stock but 5% or more of the outstanding Holdings Common Stock, the Cypress Stockholders or Scotsman Partners, as the case may be, will be entitled to designate one director. Each of the Cypress Stockholders or Scotsman Partners will lose the right to designate one director when the Cypress Stockholders or Scotsman Partners, as the case may be, no longer holds at least 5% of the outstanding Holdings Common Stock. From and after the date that Odyssey Investment Group owns less than 5% of the outstanding Holdings Common Stock, it will no longer be entitled to designate any director for election or removal. If any of Cypress Stockholders, Scotsman Partners and Odyssey Investment Group is entitled to designate a lesser number of directors pursuant to the Investor Stockholders Agreement, then they will vote their shares to cause the number of the entire Board of Directors to be reduced by the number of directors they are no longer entitled to designate. Under the Investor Stockholders Agreement, until such time as either the Cypress Stockholders or the Scotsman Partners is no longer entitled to designate three directors, without the approval of a majority of the directors designated by each of the Cypress Stockholders and Scotsman Partners, respectively, Holdings will not take certain actions (including mergers, consolidations, sales of all or substantially all assets, electing or removing the Chairman or President of Holdings, issuing securities, incurring certain indebtedness, making certain acquisitions, approving operating and capital budgets and other major transactions).

The Investor Stockholders Agreement contains provisions limiting the ability of Stockholders to transfer their shares in certain circumstances. Among other provisions, the Investor Stockholders Agreement includes (i) rights of first offer in favor of the Investor Stockholders with respect to proposed transfers of shares to a third party and (ii) tag-along rights in favor of each Stockholder pursuant to which a selling Stockholder would be required to permit the other Stockholders to participate on a proportional basis in a transfer of shares to a third party. Also, if one or more Stockholders holding at least 60% of the outstanding Holdings Common Stock determine to sell shares to a third party, in certain circumstances such Stockholders have the right to require the other Stockholders to sell their shares to such third party. Under the Investor Stockholders Agreement, the Stockholders have the right to require the Company to register their shares of Holdings Common Stock under the Securities Act in certain circumstances, including upon a demand of certain of the Stockholders.
