stock.  The  ownership  of Contran  is based on the  700,000  BUCS that  Contran
directly owns,  which are convertible  into 93,730 shares of the issuer's common

assist Contran in meeting certain deferred compensation obligations that it owes
to Harold C. Simmons.  If the CDCT No. 2 assets are insufficient to satisfy such
obligations,  Contran is obligated to satisfy the balance of such obligations as
