II.            GENERAL HISTORY OF GASEL TRANSPORTATION LINES, INC.

A.            Pare-Bankruptcy Events

-2-

GTL, a national long-distance and regional truckload common carrier, filed for protection under Chapter 11 on May 19, 2003 with the United States Bankruptcy Court, Columbus, Ohio to seek asset protection from recent demands from some of its equipment-based lenders and to enable it to continue to execute its aggressive growth strategy to restore economic viability.

The trucking industry has experienced extremely adverse conditions since the beginning of the general economic downturn in 2000. This period has been fraught with some of the highest fuel prices in history, sharp declines in overall freight shipment tonnage, productivity-sapping winter storms and industry-wide business failures. Gasel has survived the attrition, but has been operating at a deficit during the past three years. The accumulated losses strained the Company's ability to meet some of its long term equipment loan obligations. The Company had continued to work with the majority of its lenders to rectify the situation. A few lenders issued default letters. The defaults plus a significant lump sum payment demanded by one particular lender precipitated the need to seek protection under Chapter

to retain the use of revenue generating equipment and reorganize the Company's current debt structure to facilitate growth and profitability.

B.           Post-Petition Events

Debtor has continued operations since the Petition Date. GTL continues to operate in the transportation industry. GTL has maintained its employees, its customers, and has reduced its operation to one facility. Skilled employees are very important to the success of GTL's reorganization. The company has maintained its employees post­petition. The company has maintained its pre-petition customer base and has enhanced that base and continues to serve those customers.

III. OVERVIEW OF THE PLAN

A.            Introduction

The following overview and the other descriptions in this Disclosure Statement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the provisions of the Plan and its appendices. IT IS URGED THAT EACH HOLDER OF A CLAIM OR INTEREST CAREFULLY REVIEW THE TERMS OF THE PLAN BEFORE VOTING TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN.

-3-

B.            Summary of Classification and Treatment of Claims

In general, a Chapter I I plan (i) divides claims and interests into separate classes, (ii) specifies the property that each class is to receive under the plan and (iii) contains other provisions necessary to implement the plan. Section 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a plan of reorganization shall classify the claims of adebto.r's creditors and interest holders. Section 1123(a)(2) and (3) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that a plan of reorganization specify any class of claims or interests that are impaired or not impaired.

Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code provides the guidelines to determine when a class is impaired or unimpaired. A class of claims is "impaired" under a plan unless the plan (a) leaves unaltered the legal, equitable and contractual rights of each holder of a claim in such class; or (b) provides, among other things, for the cure of existing defaults and reinstatement of the maturity of claims in such class. Impaired Claims or Interests receiving a distribution of property through the Plan are entitled to vote on the Plan. Impaired Claims or Interests which do not .receive a distribution or retain property through the Plan are deemed to reject the Plan. Unimpaired claims are deemed to accept the Plan.

The Plan divides Claims and Interests into classes and sets forth the treatment afforded to each class as follows. 1.     Class A- Administrative and Priority Claims

There were no post-petition trade creditors of the Debtor.

C.           Implementation of the Plan

-7-

After the Effective Date, GTL operations will generate the payments that will be used to make Distributions

pursuant to the Plan. The assets of GTL are valued at: Real Estate                                $770,054

s` mortgage - WesBanco Bank        $469,441

2"d mortgage -- Waterford Bank        $458,352

Tractors                $7,601,748.00

Trailers                  $2,798,249.00

Inventory              $1.02,177

Revenue equipment held for Resale $1,212,117.00

Other Assets                                        $7,683.00

TOTAL ASSETS                                $4,940,084.00

(Note: All capital lease equipment has been surrendered.)

GTL has no other tangible assets. The value of the assets of GTL was determined by book value and information from industry sources. Any other assets were valued based on the opinion of Michael Post, president of the company, and his staff.

GTL is a company that has debts that far exceed the value of its assets. Because of its debt load, no equity exists for equity holders of the company. Equity holders propose to maintain their equity portion under Chapter 1 i.. GTL will raise new capital of up to $1,500,000.00 by either a PIPE or a Reg S issue of shares. PIPE is an acronym for Private Investment in Public Entity. In order to do the PIPE, there must be a public outstanding. The private placement would be done under Regulation D, and consequently, the new offering shares would not be registered, but offered under an exemption from registration. The exemption would be under Section 4 (2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or under the Reg. D provisions, which were adopted by the SEC under its authority under Section 28 of the Act.

Accumulated Depreciation

($8,189,010)

-8-

GTL has a second option to do Reg S offering. An overseas offering would be done under the provisions of Regulation S. The offering would be done under an exemption from registration under the Act as provided by the Regulation as adopted under the Section 28 authority granted to the SEC. This registration is exempt from registration under the provisions of Section 3 (a) (10) of the Act.

 

Management of GTL since its inception has been provided by Michael Post as president and chief executive officer and Gene Thompson as CFO. Post confirmation Michael Post would continue to serve as the president and chief executor officer of GTL. His compensation would be maintained at its present level of $1,700 weekly salary plus health insurance of $43.00, 401(k) retirement of $5.0 and a company leased vehicles for $850 per month. Gene Thompson will continue as CFO for a compensation package of $1,550 weekly. Alan Blue, as general counsel and SEC Attorney, draws a salary of $3,100 per month. John Jackson received $1,040 per week as Operations Manager. Any future increase in compensation would be subject to improved performance of the company.

 

Finally, any recovery obtained from the causes of action preserved under the Plan shall be used to fund the Debtor's obligations under the Plan.

 

D.            Assumption and Assignment of Leases; Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

 

GTL assumes the operating lease on trailers with:

 

1.            Dayton Leasing for 21 trailers;

 

2.             MICE Leasing for a phone system lease;

 

3.             Stoughton trailer lease for 20 trailers; and,

 

4.             Navistar trailer lease for 40 trailers.

 

The Plan will. constitute a motion to assume and assign the Leases. Entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court will constitute approval of the assumption and assignment of the Leases pursuant to Section 365(a), (b), and (f) of the Bankruptcy Court and a finding by the Bankruptcy Court that the assumption and assignment of the Leases satisfies all the requirements of Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

All other executory contracts and unexpir ed leases of the Debtor that have not been assumed or rejected prior to the Confirmation Date will be deemed rejected by the Debtor as of the Confirmation Date. The Plan will constitute a motion to reject such executory contracts and unexpired leases, Entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy

-9-

Court will constitute approval of such rejections pursuant to Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and a finding by the Bankruptcy Court that each such rejected executory contract or unexpired lease is burdensome and that the rejection thereof is in the best interest of Debtor and all parties to the Chapter 11 Case.

GTL intends to adopt "Fresh Start Accounting", we are advised by our CPA firm, Van Kernel & Company, that the Company does intend to adopt Fresh Start Accounting, providing it qualifies.

Based on a preliminary review of the conditions to qualify for fresh start accounting, it appears that the Company would qualify upon the actual assurance of emerging from bankruptcy and a greater than 50% change in voting shares after emergence (that may be brought about by the proposed new equity offering.)

There are currently authorized 10,000,000 common shares, without par value, of which there are 9,877,966 shares outstanding. There are 71 shareholders of record plus there are beneficial owners whose shares are held in street name. It is estimated that there are 285 beneficial owners in Europe and 150 beneficial owners in the United State. The total shareholders are estimated to be 506. The Company can only estimate because many of the brokerage firms holding shares for their clients in street name have not responded to previous requests for the number of persons for whom they are holding the shares.

Interests of insiders in the bankruptcy are Allan M. Blue, Director and legal counsel, who is an unsecured creditor for $20,000.00. Michael J. Post, President, Treasurer and Director, is an unsecured. creditor for approximately 510,000 for advances he has made to the Company while it has been operating in Chapter 1 I Reorganization. Mr. Post's claim is due in full as a priority to any of the other classes of creditors.

The Company proposes to raise additional equity capital post-confirmation through. either one or two different means.

One way would be to offer securities in a private placement to accredited or institutional investors in a transaction commonly referred to as a PIPE. PIPE is an acronym for "Private Investment in a Public Entity". Any securities sold in such an offering would. not be registered securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and would be offered in reliance upon the exemption from ..registration under Regulation D promulgated under the Act. Securities sold under the provisions of Regulation D are restricted against resale except upon the securities first being registered or if they are transferred in a manner such that the transaction is exempt from registration; also, after holding the restricted securities for at least a year, the securities may be sold in accordance with the terms and conditions of Rule 144. Securities sold in a PIPE are typically sold at a price that represents a discount from the trading price of the securities, may be of a different security with a conversion right into the publicly traded security, and often. have additional incentives for the purchaser of the securities, such as warrants exercisable at a discounted price, convertible securities exercisable at a discounted price, or similar types of arrangements.

The Company has discussed such a post-confirmation offering with a couple of investment bankers who have expressed an interest in arranging such a sale of securities. Even if the Reorganization Plan is confirmed, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise money from the sale of its securities in such an arrangement, or that the price of its securities would make such an offering economically feasible.

Another possible means of raising additional equity capital would be through a Regulation S offering which provides a means for a company to offer its securities without registering them under the Act. Under the provisions of Regulation S, which has been adopted under the Act, the securities must be sold overseas to non-U.S. persons (generally foreign investors who are not United States citizens) and the securities must be restricted against resales to U.S. persons. Resaies to U.S. persons cannot be made for at least one year after their issuance and then. only in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144 or if the securities are registered under the Act.

Rule 144 has several basic requirements. They are that their be current public information about the issuer of the securities, that there be a holding period for the securities, that the number or amount of

the securities sold within a 90 day period is limited, and that the securities be sold only in brokers transactions, which are basically unsolicited transactions in the open market.

The Company has had discussions with one potential underwriter for a Regulation S offering, although there can be no assurances that such an offering could be economically made by the Company or that the underwriter could perform. Such an offering could be made only after confirmation of the Reorganization Plan as proposed and would. be subject to there being a continuing and active market for the common shares of the Company at the time of such an offering. Further, such offerings, because the securities are restricted against resale in the United States, are typically sold at a substantial discount from. the market price of the securities being offered.

The Company is current on all of its l0-KSB (annual reports) and its 10-QSB (quarterly reports) filings that are required to be made with the Securities & Exchange Commission in connection with it having registered its common shares, no par value, under Section 12(g) of The Securities Exchange Act of

1934. Further, the Company expects to continue to file such reports in a timely manner both pre- and post­confirmation of the Reorganization Plan. Copies of all of the Company filings can be accessed in the SEC Edgar database at www.sec.eovledg .

E.            General Provisions

1.            Disbursing Agent

Debtor shall be designated the disbursing agent for collection and disbursement of the funds necessary and appropriate to make payments as set forth in the Plan. Acceptance of the Plan shall be deemed to constitute consent to the designation of Debtor as the disbursing agent for the collection and disbursement of funds pursuant to the Plan.

2.            Retention of Causes of Action

In accordance with Section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtor shall retain any claims, demands, rights, and causes of action that the Debtor may hold against any person or entity, including, without limitation, claims and causes of action arising under Sections 542, 543, 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, 550, 551 and 553 of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, no preclusion doctrine, including without limitation the doctrines of res judicata, collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, claim preclusion, estoppel (judicial, equitable or otherwise) or laches shall apply to them by virtue of or in connection with confirmation of the Plan.

Debtor shall also retain any claims, demands, rights, and causes of action it may have against any party while Debtor continues to investigate causes of action.

3.            Retention of Jurisdiction

The Bankruptcy Court shall have jurisdiction of matters specifically identified in Section X.C. of the Plan. IV. VOTING PROCEDURES AND REQUIREMENTS

A.            Voting Requirements

Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, only holders of allowed claims and allowed interests that are impaired under the terms and provisions of the plan are entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. Holders of allowed claims and allowed interests that are unimpaired under the terms of the plan are conclusively presumed to have accepted the plan and are not entitled to vote on the plan. Holders of allowed claims and allowed interests who receive no distributions of property pursuant to the plan are conclusively presumed to have rejected the Plan and are not entitled to vote.

Holders of Claims in Class B and Class C are impaired and therefore are entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. Holders of Claims in Class B will not receive a distribution under the Plan and are conclusively presumed to have

-13-

voted to reject the Plan. Therefore, the Debtor is soliciting acceptances only from the holders of Claims in Class B and Class C.

All. holders of Claims in Class B-I through B-8 as separate classes and Class C whose claims are deemed allowed pursuant to either Section 502(a) or Section I I I I(a) may vote on the Plan. A Claim is not an Allowed Claim, however, simply because the bolder of the Claim was permitted to vote on the Plan. Unless the Claim is otherwise allowed pursuant to the Plan, Debtor reserves the right to object to the allowance of all Claims for all other purposes pursuant to the Plan, including Distributions.

B.            Ballots and Voting Deadlines

A Ballot to be used for voting to accept or reject the Plan is enclosed with this Disclosure Statement and Plan. See Exhibit B to the Plan. Class B-1 through B-8 and Class C claimants ("Voting Claimants") should carefully review the Disclosure Statement, Plan, and instructions contained on the Ballot. After reviewing the Disclosure Statement, Plan, and Ballot, Voting Claimants are encouraged to cast their vote by indicating their acceptance or rejection of the Plan on the Ballot. To be counted, your ballot must be actually received by 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on

  at the address indicated on the ballot.

 

V.            CONFIRMATION OF THE PLAN

A.            Requirements for Confirmation of the Plan

1.            Section 1129 Requirements

The Bankruptcy Court will confirm the Plan only if all of the requirements of Section 1.129 of the Bankruptcy Code are met. Among the requirements for confirmation are that the Plan (i) is accepted by all impaired classes of claims and equity interests or, if rejected by an impaired class, that the Plan "does not discriminate unfairly" and is "fair and equitable" as to such class, (ii) is feasible, and (iii) is in the "best interests" of holders of claims and interests impaired under the Plan.

2.             Votes Required for Acceptance of the Plan

Under the Bankruptcy Code, acceptance of a plan of reorganization by a class of claims occurs when holders of at least two-thirds in dollar amount and more than one half in number of the allowed claims of that class that cast

G.5

ballots for acceptance or rejection of the plan of reorganization vote to accept the plan. Thus, acceptance of the Plan by a particular class of claims will occur only if at least two-thirds in dollar amount and a majority in number of the holders of allowed claims that cast their Ballots vote in favor of acceptance. Thus, holders of claims which fail to vote are not counted as either accepting or rejecting the Plan.

3.             Unfair Discrimination and Fair and Equitable Tests

Even if the Plan is not accepted by every impaired class of claims, the Plan may still be confirmed if, as to each impaired class of claims which has not accepted the Plan, the Plan "does not discriminate unfairly" and is "fair and equitable." A chapter 11 plan does not unfairly discriminate within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code i f the legal rights of a dissenting class are treated in a manner consistent with the treatment of other classes whose legal rights are substantially similar to those of the dissenting class and if no class of claims or interests receives more than it legally is entitled to receive for its claim or interest. With respect to the fair and equitable test, the Bankruptcy Code provides different tests for secured creditors, unsecured creditors and equity holders.

With respect to a secured claim, "fair and equitable" means (i) the impairedsecured creditor retains its liens to the extent of its allowed claim and receives deferred cash payments at least equal in value to the allowed amount of its claim with a present value as of the effective date of the plan at least equal in value to such creditor's interest in Debtor's interest in the property securing its claim, (ii) if property subject to the lien of the impaired secured creditor is sold free and clear of that lien, the lien attaches to the proceeds of the sale, and such lien proceeds are treated in accordance with clause (i) or (iii) of this paragraph, or (iii) the impaired secured creditor realizes the "indubitable equivalent" of its claim under the plan.

With respect to an unsecured claim, "fair and equitable" means either (i) each impaired unsecured creditor receives or retains property of a value, as of the effective date of the plan, equal to the amount of its allowed claim, or (ii) the holders of claims or interests that are junior to the claims or interests or the dissenting class will not receive or retain any property under the plan.

With respect to interests, "fair and equitable" means that each interest holder (a) will receive or retain property of a value as of the effective date of the plan, equal to the greatest of (i) the allowed amount of any fixed liquidation preference to which such bolder is entitled, (ii) any fixed redemption price to which such holder is entitled, or (iii) the

-15-

value of such interest; or (h) the holder of any interest that is junior to the interests of such class will not receive or retain any property under the plan on account of such junior interest.

In view of the proposed treatment of the holders of Claims and Interests under the Plan, Debtor believes the Plan does not unfairly discriminate and is fair and equitable.

4.             Feasibility Test

Section 1I29(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a chapter 11 plan may he confirmed only if the Bankruptcy Court finds such plan is feasible. A feasible plan is one which will. not lead to a need for further reorganization or liquidation of the debtor. Debtor will continue its active operations to address obligations to their creditors. In view of GTL's obligations and active operations, Debtor believes that the Plan satisfies the feasibility requirement imposed by the Bankruptcy Code.

5.             Best Interests Test

The Bankruptcy Code provides that the plan will not be confirmed, regardless of whether or not anyone objects to confirmation, unless the Bankruptcy Court finds that the plan is in the "best interests" of all classes of claims and interests which are impaired. The "best interests" test will be satisfied by a finding of the Bankruptcy Court that either (1) all holders of impaired claims or interests have accepted the plan, or (2) the plan will provide such a holder that has not accepted the plan with a recovery at least equal in value to the recovery such holder would receive if the debtor was liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Determining whether the Plan meets the "best interest" tests involves a determination of the amount of proceeds that would he generated from the liquidation of the Debtor's remaining assets in the context of a chapter 7 liquidation. Such value must then be reduced by the costs of such liquidation, including costs incurred during the chapter I case and allowed under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code (such a professionals' fees and expenses), a trustee's fees; and the fees and expenses of professionals retained by a trustee. The potential chapter 7 liquidation distribution in respect of each class must he further reduced by costs imposed by the delay caused by conversion to chapter 7. The net present value of a hypothetical chapter 7 liquidation in respect of an impaired class is then compared to the recovery in respect. of such class provided for in the plan. Debtor submits that each impaired class will receive under the Plan a recovery at least equal in value to the recovery such class would receive in a liquidation under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

B.            Effect of Confirmation

 

Confirmation of the Plan by the Bankruptcy Court makes the Plan binding upon the Debtor, any person acquiring property under the Plan, and the holders of Claims and Interests, whether or not such creditor or interest holder (i) is impaired under or has accepted the Plan or (ii) receives or retains any property under the Plan.

 

C.            Confirmation Hearing

 

Pursuant to Section l 128 of the Bankruptcy Code, a hearing to confirm the Plan will he heldd on December 14, 2004 at 2:00 pm. before the Honorable Charles M. Caldwell, United States Bankruptcy Judge, at the United States Bankruptcy Court, 170 N. High Street, Columbus, Ohio. The Bankruptcy Court has directed that objections, if any, to confirmation of the Plan be served and filedd so that they are received on or before 4:00 p.m. on_______________________________________________________________________

 

Objections to confirmation of the Plan are governed by Rule 9014 of the Bankruptcy Rules. Any objection to confirmation must he made in writing and specify in detail the name and address of the objector, all grounds for the objection, and the amount of the claim held by the objector. Objections must he filed with the United States Bankruptcy Court, 170 N. High Street, Columbus, OH, 43215 and served so that they are received by the Court andd the following parties on or before 4:00 p.m.. on

VI. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PLAN

 

There may be tax consequences for the holders of Claims and Interests as a result of implementation of the Plan, based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, statutes of other governmental units and related regulations, judicial authority and current administrative rulings and practice.

 

Each holder of a Claim or Interest is urged to consult its own tax advisor as to the consequences of the Plan to it under federal and applicable state, local and foreign. tax laws.

VII. ALTERNATIVES TO THE PLAN

 

Debtor believes that the Plan affords holders of Claims and Interests the potential for the greatest recovery from the Debtor's assets and, therefore, is in the best interests of the holders of Claims and Interests. If the Plan is not confirmed, the alternatives include (a) liquidation under Chapter 7 and (b) alternatives plans of reorganization under Chapter I. l.. The Debtor has considered these alternatives to the Plan. In the opinion of Debtor, such alternatives would not afford the holders of Claims and Interests as great a recovery potential as does the Plan. VIII. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

 

Debtor has concluded that confirmation and implementation of the Plan will provide each holder of a Claim with a greater recovery than it would receive under any alternative plan or if Debtor were to liquidate and distribute its assets under Chapter 7, Thus, Debtor recommends that confirmation and implementation of the Plan provides the best reasonably possible outcome, and acceptance of the Plan is in the best interest of the holders of Claims and Interests_ Debtor urges all holders of Claims entitled to vote on the Plan to promptly cast their ballots in favor of the Plan.

ARTICLE IV
MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PLAN

Immediately prior to or simultaneously with the Effective Date, Debtor shall be merged into Gasel-Delaware pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and Gasel-Delaware shall be the Surviving Company to the Merger. Accordingly, after the Effective Date Gasel-Delaware would, by operation of the Merger, succeed to all of the assets and liabilities of Debtor, including Debtor's obligations under the Plan. Gasel-Delaware has joined with Debtor as a proponent of this Plan, and as such is deemed an "affiliate" of Debtor under Section 1145(a)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtor believes that reincorporation of Gasel Transportation Lines, Inc. in Delaware is in the best interests of Debtor and of all holders of Claims and Interests. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Company provides for an authorized capital of 100,000,000 shares

15

of Common Stock, par value 5.001 per share and 1.0,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.001. per share. This will provide the Surviving Company with substantial additional authorized common stock, and a class of preferred stock, so as to permit equity financings in the period

immediately following the Effective Date. Debtor estimates that the Surviving Company will require equity financing in excess of $1.500,000.00 commencing with the second and third truances to occur in succeeding ninety-day periods. In addition, Delaware as a domicile for a corporation has perceived advantages; it is the most recognized incorporation jurisdiction in the United States, generally, and is preferred for companies being financed institutionally.

As of the Effective Date of the Merger, the outstanding 10,000,000 shares of Gasel Ohio Common Stock will be converted, on a one share-for-one share basis, into common stock of the Surviving Company-Easel Delaware, and the holders thereof will have precisely the same rights which they would have had if such certificates had been issued by the Surviving Company. On the Effective Date of the Merger, the Debtor's warrants to purchase an aggregate of____

shares of Gasel Ohio Common Stock and Debtor's options to purchase an aggregate of_____________

shares of Gasel Ohio Common Stock will constitute warrants and options, respectively, of the Surviving Company to purchase that same respective numbers of shares of Gasel Delaware Common Stock, and the holders thereof will have precisely the same rights under their respective warrant and option agreements which they would have had if such warrants and options had been issued by the Surviving Company.

 

On the Effective Date of the Merger, the assets, liabilities, reserves and accounts of each constituent corporation will be taken up on the books of the Surviving Company at the amounts at which they, respectively, were carried on the books of said constituent corporations. Prior to

- 16-

the Effective Date of the Merger, Gasel-Delaware will have no assets or liabilities, so that, following the Merger, the assets and liabilities of the Surviving Company shall be the same as those of the Debtor prior to the Merger.

 

Gasel-Delaware was incorporated on. August______ 2004. The officers and directors of Gasel­Delaware are identical to the officers and directors of Debtor. Gasel-Delaware has been qualified to do business in the State of Ohio.

As a result of the Merger, the Certificate of Incorporation of Gasel-Delaware will be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Company, and the By-Laws of Gasel-Delaware will be the By-Laws of the Surviving Company.

After the Effective Date, the Surviving Company will be responsible for all debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of Debtor and all said debts, liabilities, obligations and duties will attach to the Surviving Company and may be enforced against it to the same extent as if said debts, liabilities, obligations and duties had been incurred or contracted by it.

After the Effective Date, Gasel Transportation Lines, Inc., will make Distributions pursuant to the Plan. Said payments will be generated from Gasel Transportation Lines, Inc. s operations.

Debtor shall make appropriate Plan payments as set forth in Appendix C.

Finally, any recovery obtained from the causes of action preserved pursuant to Section X.D. of this Plan shall he used to fund the Debtor's obligations under the Plan.

APPENDIX C

This projection model depicts profits, cash flow, and balance sheet results based on down-sizing the company owned and operated tractor and trailer fleet in the first quarter of 2004 and the addition of owner/operators (contractors) fromm newly secured flatbed and automotive divisions.

 

The power units returned (11) to Volvo in July 2004 are replaced in August and September 2004 by later model tractors on an operating lease with monthly payments approximately equal to the replaced 'Volvo payments.

 

Earnings and cash flow increase due to eliminating excessive equipment maintenance costs and decreasing depreciation expense associated with the group of older power units and trailers returned to lenders during the I"' and 2' quarters of 2004; and from productivity efficiencies picked-up from centralizing the Company's customer base to the proximity of its home terminal (Ohio Valley - Marietta,, Ohio), and from a change in its customer mix to shippers paying higher rates, with higher volume and with equipment efficiencies from lower dead head miles.

 

In addition, financial performance improvements result from decreases in the Company's general and administrative expenses related to personnel reductions, compensation decreases, and general cost cutting measures,

 

Interest and depreciation expenses are decreased significantly compared to pre-petition levels, as interest costs and depreciation expenses reflect the decrease in the revised principal balances from its adjustment to management's estimate and lenders' acceptance of the related security (equipment) to current fair market values and amortized over the next two years for tractors and three years for trailers at low interest rates, ranging from 5.5 % to 12.5

old.

Profits and cash flow projections for calendar years 200:5 - 2007 (3 years) are assumed to maintain the fleet at the same size as it reaches its peak of approximately 100 tractors and 120 trailers in November of 2004, and as key operating factors that give rise to revenue and operating costs are assumed to remain constant after a certain level of operating efficiencies and cost reductions are achieved by October of 2004, and follow the same seasonal fluctuations annually thereafter.

 

The plan assumes to start the proposed revised secured debt service in November of 2004 as adequate working capital develops at that point. A significant re-capitalization project is planned to begin in December 2004 (post-confirmation) and it is projected to provide a net of approximately $ 1.275 million in additional working capital over a 9-month period beginning in January and ending .in December 2005 from the sale of new common stock issued in a Private Investment in a Public Entity "PIPE" (see attached "New Equity Funding Schecbile").

 

The proposed additional capital would solve the Company's liquidity deficit (a carry-over from the pre­petition period) in the near term and through the foreseeable future, as well as, along 'with the planned equipment write downs and future earnings, bring shareholder equity positive, largely properly recapitalire the Company.

 

In addition, the proposed additional capital is estimated to provide sufficient cash to pay off the pre-petition withholding and payroll related taxes in the amount of $315,740 in lump stmtm in August 2005.

 

Pre-petition unsecured obligations are proposed to be paid over 5 years discounted to $ 187,400 at 5 % .from its original balance of approximately $ 3,747.740

OF

           

GASEL TRANSPORTATION LINES, INC.

 

I, the undersigned, for the purposes of incorporating and organizing a corporation under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, do execute this Certificate of Incorporation and do hereby certify as follows:

 

FIRST: The name of the corporation is Gasel Transportation Lines, Inc. (the “corporation”).

 

SECOND: The address of the corporation’s registered office is 1220 N. Market St., Suite 606, Wilmington, DE 19801, County of New Castle.  The name of the corporation’s registered agent is Registered Agents, Ltd. whose address is the same as above. 

 

THIRD:  The nature of business and purpose of the corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

 

FOURTH: The total number of shares of stock which the corporation shall have authority to issue is One Hundred Ten Million (110,000,000), of which One Hundred Million (100,000,000) are Common Stock, having a par value each of One-tenth of One Cent ($0.001), and Ten Million (10,000,000) are Preferred Stock, with a par value of One-tenth of One Cent ($.001) per share.

 

Authority is hereby expressly vested in the Board of Directors of the corporation, subject to the provisions of this Article FOURTH and to the limitations prescribed by law, to authorize the issue from time to time of one or more series of Preferred Stock and with respect to each such series to fix by resolution or resolutions adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the whole Board of Directors providing for the issue of such series, the voting powers, full or limited, if any, of the shares of such series and the designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. The authority of the Board of Directors with respect to each series shall include, but not be limited to, the determination or fixing of the following:

 

(a)  The number of shares constituting the series and the designation of such series.

(b)  The dividend rate on the shares of such series, the conditions and dates upon which such dividends shall be payable, the relation which such dividends shall bear to the dividends payable on any other class or classes or series of the corporation’s capital stock, and whether such dividends shall be cumulative or non-cumulative.

(c)   Whether the shares of such series shall be subject to redemption by the corporation at the option of either the corporation or the holder or both or upon the happening of a specified event, and, if made subject to any such redemption, the times or events, prices and other terms and conditions of such redemption.

(d)  The terms and amount of any sinking fund provided for the purchase or redemption of the shares of such series.

(e)  Whether or not the shares of such series shall be convertible into, or exchangeable for, at the option of either the holder or the corporation or upon the happening of a specified event, shares of any other class or classes or any other series of the same or any other class or classes of the corporation’s capital stock, and, if provision be made for conversion or exchange, the times or events, prices, rates, adjustments, and other terms and conditions of such conversions or exchanges.

(f)    The restrictions, if any, on the issue or reissue of any additional Preferred Stock.

(g)  The rights of the holders of the shares of such series upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the corporation, and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of shares of that series.

(h)  The provisions as to voting, optional and/or other special rights and preferences, if any.

 

Dividends on outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall be paid or declared and set apart for payment before any dividends shall be paid or declared and set apart for payment on the Common Stock with respect to the same dividend period.

 

If upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the corporation, the assets available for distribution to holders of shares of Preferred Stock of all series shall be insufficient to pay such holders the full preferential amount to which they are entitled, then such assets shall be distributed ratably among the shares of all series of Preferred Stock in accordance with the respective preferential amounts (including unpaid cumulative dividends, if any) payable with respect thereto.

 

FIFTH:  The incorporator of the corporation is Michael Paige.

 

SIXTH:  Unless and except to the extent that the by-laws of the corporation shall so require, the election of directors of the corporation need not be by written ballot.

 

SEVENTH:  In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by the laws of the State of Delaware, the Board of Directors of the corporation is expressly authorized to make, alter and repeal the by-laws of the corporation, subject to the power of the stockholders of the corporation to alter or repeal any by-law whether adopted by them or otherwise.

 

EIGHTH:   A director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same exists or hereafter may be amended, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.  If the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware hereafter is amended to authorize the further elimination or limitation of the liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the corporation, in addition to the limitation on personal liability provided herein, shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by the amended General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.  Any repeal or modification of this Article by the stockholders of the corporation shall be prospective only, and shall not adversely affect any limitation on the personal liability of a director of the corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification.

 

NINTH:  The corporation reserves the right at any time, and from time to time, to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in the Certificate of Incorporation, and other provisions authorized by the laws of the State of Delaware at the time in force may be added or inserted, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by law; and all rights, preferences and privileges of whatsoever nature conferred upon stockholders, directors or any other persons whomsoever by and pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation in its present form or as hereafter amended are granted subject to the rights reserved in this article.
