VAIL RESORTS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. Basis of Presentation Vail Resorts, Inc. ("Vail Resorts") is organized as a holding company and operates through various subsidiaries. Vail Resorts and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") currently operate in two business segments--resort and real estate. The Vail Corporation (d/b/a Vail Associates, Inc.), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Vail Resorts, and its subsidiaries, (collectively, "Vail Associates") operate four of the world's largest skiing facilities on Vail, Breckenridge, Keystone and Beaver Creek mountains in Colorado. In addition to the ski resorts, Vail Associates owns and operates Grand Teton Lodge Company ("GTLC"), which operates three resorts within Grand Teton National Park (under a National Park Service concessionaire contract) and the Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis Club in Wyoming. Vail Resorts Development Company ("VRDC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Vail Associates, conducts the Company's real estate development activities. The Company's mountain resort businesses are seasonal in nature. The Company's ski resort businesses and related amenities typically have operating seasons from late October through mid-May; the Company's operations at GTLC generally run from mid-May through mid-October. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Results for interim periods are not indicative of the results for the entire year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2000, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2000. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Use of Estimates--The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Interest Rate Agreements--At July 31, 2000, the Company had in effect interest rate swap agreements ("Swap Agreements") with notional amounts totaling $75.0 million maturing in December 2002. In October 2000, the Company canceled the Swap Agreements in exchange for a cash payment of $1.1 million. The $1.1 million gain has been deferred at October 31, 2000 and will be recognized over the original life of the Swap Agreements, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 84-7, "Termination of Interest Rate Swaps". New Accounting Standards--In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS No. 133 was to be effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. In July 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133". SFAS No. 137 deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 133 until fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities - an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133". SFAS No. 138 addresses a limited number of issues causing difficulties in the implementation of SFAS No. 133 and is required to be adopted concurrently with SFAS No. 133. The Company has not engaged in hedging activities and does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138 will have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

VAIL RESORTS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) 3. Commitments and Contingencies Smith Creek Metropolitan District ("SCMD") and Bachelor Gulch Metropolitan District ("BGMD") were organized in November 1994 to cooperate in the financing, construction and operation of basic public infrastructure serving the Company's Bachelor Gulch Village development. SCMD was organized primarily to own, operate and maintain water, street, traffic and safety, transportation, fire protection, parks and recreation, television relay and translation, sanitation and certain other facilities and equipment of BGMD. SCMD is comprised of approximately 150 acres of open space land owned by the Company and members of the Board of Directors of SCMD. In two planned unit developments, Eagle County has granted zoning approval for 1,395 dwelling units within Bachelor Gulch Village, including various single-family homesites, cluster homes, townhomes, and lodging units. The developers current plans, however, call for approximately 932 dwelling units to be constructed over the next 10 years. As of October 31, 2000, the Company has sold 104 single-family homesites and sixteen parcels to developers for the construction of various types of dwelling units. Currently, SCMD has outstanding $38.4 million of variable rate revenue bonds maturing on October 1, 2035, which have been enhanced with a $40.7 million letter of credit issued against the Company's Credit Facility (as defined herein). It is anticipated that, as Bachelor Gulch Village expands, BGMD will become self supporting and that within 25 to 35 years it will issue general obligation bonds, the proceeds of which will be used to retire the SCMD revenue bonds. Until that time, the Company has agreed to subsidize the interest payments on the SCMD revenue bonds. The Company has estimated the present value of the remaining aggregate subsidy to be $19.5 million at October 31, 2000. The Company has allocated $10.6 million of that amount to the Bachelor Gulch Village homesites which were sold as of October 31, 2000 and has recorded that amount as a liability in the accompanying financial statements. The total subsidy incurred as of October 31, 2000 and July 31, 2000 was $7.4 million and $6.5 million, respectively. At October 31, 2000 the Company had various other letters of credit outstanding in the aggregate amount of $46.2 million. The Company purchased a Reduced Skier Day Insurance Policy, a customized insurance product, for the 1999-2000 ski season. Under this policy, the Company receives a fixed payment for each paid skier day below certain targeted levels for the season. During fiscal 2000, the net benefit recognized in the financial statements from the policy was $13.9 million. The proceeds from the insurance policy have not yet been received. The Company is in settlement discussions with the insurance carrier and expects to settle the insurance claim in the second quarter of fiscal 2001. The Company is a party to various lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes the Company has adequate insurance coverage and accrued loss contingencies for all matters and that, although the ultimate outcome of such claims cannot be ascertained, current pending and threatened claims are not expected to have a material adverse impact on the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. In July 1999, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers alleged that certain road construction which the Company undertook as part of the Blue Sky Basin expansion involved discharges of fill material into wetlands in violation of the Clean Water Act. A subsequent review confirmed that the wetland impact involved approximately seven-tenths of one acre. In August 1999, three organizations and one individual collectively notified us and the federal agencies that if the alleged violations were not remedied within 60 days, they intended to file a citizen enforcement action under the Clean Water Act. No action has been filed as of the date of this Form 10-Q. Under the Clean Water Act, unauthorized discharges of fill can give rise to administrative, civil and criminal enforcement actions seeking monetary penalties and injunctive relief, including removal of the unauthorized fill. In October 1999, the Environmental Protection Agency, the lead enforcement agency in this matter, ordered us to stabilize the road temporarily and restore the wetland in the summer of 2000. (EPA - Region VIII, Docket No. CWA-8-2000-01). We completed the restoration work on the wetland impact this summer, pursuant to our restoration plan approved by the EPA. The EPA is considering enforcement action, and although we cannot guarantee a particular result, we do not anticipate that a material fine will be levied. F-6

Commitments and Contingencies (Continued) The Company has executed as lessee non-cancelable operating leases for the rental of office space, employee residential units and office equipment through fiscal 2009. For the three months ended October 31, 2000 and 1999, lease expense of $3.0 million and $3.2 million, respectively, related to these agreements was recorded and is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Net Earnings Per Common Share Basic earnings per share ("EPS") excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average shares outstanding.

These bonds accrue interest at 6.95% per annum, with interest being payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1. In addition, the Company has outstanding two series of refunding bonds. The Series 1990 Sports Facilities Refunding Revenue Bonds have an aggregate outstanding principal amount of $19.0 million, which matures in installments in 2006 and 2008.

Collectively, the bonds are referred to herein as the "Industrial Development Bonds". (b) The Company's credit facilities consist of a revolving credit facility ("Credit Facility") that provides for debt financing up to an aggregate principal amount of $450 million. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest annually at the Company's option at the rate of (i) LIBOR (6.62% at October 31, 2000) plus a margin ranging from 0.75% to 2.25% or (ii) the agent's prime lending rate, (9.50% at October 31, 2000) plus a margin of up to 0.75%. The Company also pays a quarterly unused commitment fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.50%. The interest margins fluctuate based upon the ratio of the Company's total Funded Debt to the Company's Resort EBITDA (as defined in the underlying Credit Facility. The Credit Facility matures on December 19, 2002. SSI Venture LLC's credit facility ("SSV Facility") provides debt financing up to an aggregate principal amount of $25 million. The SSV Facility consists of (i) a $15 million Tranche A revolving credit facility and (ii) a $10 million Tranche B term loan facility.

The principal amount outstanding on the Tranche B term loan was $8.25 million at October 31, 2000. Future minimum amortization under the Tranche B Term Loan Facility is $0.75 million, $1.0 million, $1.0 million and $5.5 million during fiscal years 2001, 2002, 2003, and 2004, respectively.

The Notes have a fixed annual interest rate of 8.75%, with interest due semi-annually on May 15 and November 15. The Notes will mature on May 15, 2009 and no principal payments are due to be paid until maturity. The Company has certain early redemption options under the terms of the Notes. Substantially all of the Company's subsidiaries have guaranteed the Notes. The Notes are subordinated to certain of the Company's debts, including the Credit Facility, and will be subordinated to certain of the Company's future debts. The proceeds of the offering were used to reduce the Company's outstanding debt under the Credit Facility. (d) Other obligations bear interest at rates ranging from 5.45% to 8.0% and have maturities ranging from 2001 to 2029. (e) Maturities are based on the Company's July 31 fiscal year end.

VAIL RESORTS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) 7. Related Party Transactions In October 2000, in connection with the employment of Martin White as Senior Vice President, Marketing, the Company agreed to invest up to $800,000, but not to exceed 50% of the purchase price, for the purchase of a primary residence for Mr. White and his family in the Vail Valley. Based on the actual amount invested by the Company, the Company will obtain a proportionate undivided ownership interest in such residence. The Company shall be entitled to receive its proportionate share of the resale price of the residence, less certain deductions, upon the earlier of the resale of the residence or within approximately 18 months after Mr. White's termination from the Company. 8. Acquisitions On June 14, 1999, the Company purchased 100% of the outstanding shares of GTLC, a Wyoming corporation, from CSX Corporation for a total purchase price of $55 million. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. GTLC operates four resort properties in northwestern Wyoming: Jenny Lake Lodge, Jackson Lake Lodge, Colter Bay Village and Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis Club. GTLC operates the first three resorts, all located within Grand Teton National Park, under a concessionaire contract with the National Park Service. Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis Club is located outside the park on property owned by GTLC and includes approximately 30 acres of developable land. The following unaudited pro forma revenue for the three months ended October 31, 1998 assumes the acquisition of GTLC occurred on August 1, 1998. The pro forma revenue is not necessarily indicative of the actual revenue that would have been recognized, nor is it necessarily indicative of future revenue. The unaudited revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2000 and 1999 is provided for comparative purposes. Pro forma net income and EPS are not presented, as the pro forma adjustments are immaterial to the actual net income and EPS of the Company, and, in the opinion of the Company, would not provide additional meaningful information to the reader.

In return for an initial investment of $5 million, the Company received a 49% interest in the joint venture. The Company paid $0.8 million at closing and the remainder of the initial investment is due in quarterly installments over the following twelve-month period. The Company will be granted a free license to use the system and will be charged at favorable rates for ongoing maintenance and on-site support. In addition, the Company is obligated to provide certain levels of marketing assistance. The Company will also earn a commission for all customers referred. The Company anticipates that such system will be completed and ready for the Company's use in time for the 2002-03 ski season. F-13

VAIL RESORTS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) 8. Acquisitions (Continued) Also in October 2000, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with a venture led by an affiliate of Continental Gencom for the construction of The Ritz-Carlton(R), Bachelor Gulch (the "Hotel"). The Hotel, scheduled to open in late 2002, is being developed by The Athens Group, of Phoenix, Arizona, and will include a 238-room hotel, a 20,000-square-foot spa and fitness center, ski rental, lesson and retail space, restaurants plus meeting space. In addition, 23 privately owned luxury penthouse residences are also being built above the hotel. All twenty-three of these penthouses are currently under contract. The Company will receive a 49% interest in the joint venture in return for a cash investment of $3.8 million, land contribution with a $3.4 million book value, and an interest-bearing loan to the joint venture of up to $4.5 million. Construction of the entire hotel project is expected to cost approximately $162 million. In order to cover construction costs, the joint venture is obtaining $97 million in debt financing from a syndicate of banks. The remainder is being funded by a combination of equity and debt contributed by the partners, mezzanine financing, and the sale of condominiums. Under the terms of the joint venture, the Company will provide golf, spa and club privileges for a fee of $3.7 million. The Company will receive $1.5 million up front, $1.5 million when the golf course opens, and $0.7 million as penthouse residences close. Separately, the Company will contract with the hotel joint venture to acquire the 20,000-square-foot spa, plus 8,000 square feet of skier services area, at the developer's cost of approximately $13 million. The majority of this expense is expected to be recouped through membership sales in the Bachelor Gulch Club. F-14

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company's July 31, 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the consolidated condensed interim financial statements as of October 31, 2000 and 1999 and for the three months then ended, included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, which provide additional information regarding the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. Three Months Ended October 31, 2000 versus Three Months Ended October 31, 1999 Three Months Ended October 31, Percentage 2000 1999 Increase Increase ------------ --------- ------------ ------------ (unaudited) (dollars in thousands) Resort Revenue............................ $ 61,451 $ 56,859 $ 4,592 8.1 Resort Operating Expense.................. 79,953 77,298 2,655 3.4 Resort Revenue. Resort revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2000 and 1999 is presented by category as follows: Three Months Ended Percentage October 31, Increase Increase 2000 1999 (Decrease) (Decrease) --------- ---------- ----------- --------- (unaudited) (dollars and skier days in thousands, except ETP) Lift Ticket.............................. $ 186 $ 465 $ (279) (60.0) Ski School............................... 11 36 (25) (69.4) Dining................................... 12,403 11,789 614 5.2 Retail/Rental............................ 15,918 14,964 954 6.4 Hospitality.............................. 15,956 15,468 488 3.2 Other.................................... 16,977 14,137 2,840 20.1 --------- ---------- ----------- --------- Total Resort Revenue..................... $ 61,451 $ 56,859 $ 4,592 8.1 ========= ========== =========== ========= Total Skier Days......................... 8 19 (11) (57.9) ========= ========== =========== ========= ETP...................................... $ 23.25 $ 24.47 $ (1.22) (5.0) ========= ========== =========== ========= Lift ticket revenue decreased due to a 57.9% decrease in total skier days along with a 5.0% decrease in ETP (effective ticket price ("ETP") is defined as total lift ticket revenue divided by total skier days). The decrease in skier days is due to scheduled later opening dates at both Breckenridge and Keystone Mountains for the 2000-01 ski season as compared to the 1999-2000 season. The decrease in ETP is due to a shift in the type of lift tickets used in the first quarter to a higher proportion of discount season pass usage as opposed to lead rate tickets and other higher-ETP daily lift ticket products. This shift is primarily due to the introduction of the Colorado Pass, a new discount season pass product, which generated a significant increase in the number of season passes sold for the 2000-01 ski season. The decrease in Ski School revenue is consistent with the decrease in skier days. Dining revenue increased primarily due to the operations of its restaurant joint venture, Larkspur Restaurant and Bar LLC, which opened in the second quarter of fiscal 2000. In addition, revenue related to banquet services were up as a result of increased conference business. 1

Retail/Rental revenue increased due primarily to an increase at the Company's retail/rental outlets operated by SSV, a 51.9%-owned fully consolidated retail/rental joint venture. During the first quarter, SSV acquired a large Colorado bicycle retailer. In addition, Colorado Pass sales and good early-season snowfall have contributed to the increase in SSV's revenues, as both events generated increased in-store traffic. Hospitality revenue increased as a result of increased conference bookings, an increase in the number of managed properties, and aggressive marketing strategies during the late summer and fall seasons. The increase in Other revenue is primarily attributable to the River Course at Keystone, which opened for operations this past summer, the operations of VailNet and InterNetWorks, the technology companies purchased by the Company November 1, 1999, and increased private club operations. Resort Operating Expense. Resort operating expense for the three months ended October 31, 2000 was $80.0 million, an increase of $2.7 million, or 3.4%, compared to the three months ended October 31, 1999. Operating expense did not grow at a rate similar to the growth in revenue due primarily to the later opening dates at Keystone and Breckenridge, decreased snowmaking as a result of increased snowfall, and close management of operating costs. Real Estate Revenue. Revenue from real estate operations for each of the three months ended October 31, 2000 and 1999 was $9.0 million. Revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2000 consists primarily of the sale of one Bachelor Gulch development site, two residential condominiums in Breckenridge and the profit share from the Company's investment in Keystone/Intrawest LLC. Profits generated by Keystone/Intrawest LLC during the three months ended October 31, 2000 included the sale of 63 village condominium units at the River Run development and three single-family homesites surrounding the River Run golf course. Revenue for the three months ended October 31, 1999 consisted primarily of the sale of two Bachelor Gulch development sites, one Arrowhead development site, and our investment in the Keystone/Intrawest LLC. Profits generated by Keystone/Intrawest LLC during the quarter ended October 31, 1999 included the sale of 29 Village condominiums at the River Run development. Real Estate Operating Expense. Real estate operating expense for the three months ended October 31, 2000 was $4.3 million, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 26.5%, compared to the three months ended October 31, 1999. The decrease is due to fewer inventory sales in fiscal 2001 coupled with an increase in profit contribution from Keystone/Intrawest LLC compared to fiscal 2000. Real estate operating expense consists primarily of the cost of sales and related real estate commissions associated with the real estate sales detailed above for both fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2000. Profits generated by Keystone/Intrawest LLC are recorded using the equity method; therefore there are no operating expenses associated with this joint venture. Real estate operating expense also includes the selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the Company's real estate operations. Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.7 million, or 5.0% for the three months ended October 31, 2000 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to an increased fixed asset base due to fiscal 2000 capital improvements. Interest expense. The Company recorded interest expense of $8.9 million during each of the three months ended October 31, 2000 and 1999, relating primarily to the Senior Subordinated Notes, the Credit Facility, the SSV Facility and the Industrial Development Bonds. 2

Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company has historically provided for operating expenditures, debt service, capital expenditures and acquisitions through a combination of cash flow from operations, short-term and long-term borrowings and sales of real estate. The Company's cash flows used for investing activities have historically consisted of payments for acquisitions, resort capital expenditures, and investments in real estate. During the three months ended October 31, 2000 the Company made payments of $16.6 million for resort capital expenditures and $10.4 million for investments in real estate. The primary projects included in resort capital expenditures were a) the expansion of Pete's Bowl in Blue Sky Basin at Vail, including a new high-speed four-passenger chairlift, b) implementation of an enterprise resource planning system, c) a new laundry facility at Keystone, d) expansion of the grooming fleet, and e) upgrades and remodeling at the Village at Breckenridge and Lodge at Vail. The primary projects included in investments in real estate were a) continued development of the Red Sky Ranch golf community, b) planning and construction of The Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch, and c) planning and development of projects in and around each of the Company's resorts. The Company estimates that it will make resort capital expenditures totaling between $40 and $50 million during the remainder of fiscal 2001. The primary projects are anticipated to include (i) snowboarding halfpipe and terrain park improvements at Keystone, (ii) expansion of Vail's snowmaking capabilities, (iii) new activities at and renovations to Adventure Ridge at Vail, (iv) expansion of the grooming fleet at Vail, Beaver Creek and Breckenridge, (v) base area amenity and parking improvements at Beaver Creek, (vi) upgrades to office and front line information systems, and (vii) significant renovations of the Lodge at Vail. Investments in real estate during the remainder of fiscal 2001 are expected to total approximately $35 to $45 million. The primary projects are anticipated to include (i) planning and development of projects at Vail, Bachelor Gulch, Arrowhead, Avon, Breckenridge, Keystone and the Jackson Hole Valley, (ii) continued development of Red Sky Ranch, a golf community that will include two 18-hole golf courses, (iii) construction of The Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch, and (iv) investments in developable land at strategic locations at all four ski resorts. The Company plans to fund these capital expenditures and investments in real estate with cash flow from operations and borrowings under the Credit Facility. In October 2000, the Company invested $0.8 million in a new technology joint venture in exchange for a 49% share. In addition, the Company received distributions from various joint ventures totaling $5.8 million. During the three months ended October 31, 2000, the Company received $31.7 million in cash in its financing activities consisting of $27.8 million in net long-term debt borrowings, $2.8 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and $1.1 million from the cancellation of swap agreements. During the three months ended October 31, 2000, 279,460 employee stock options were exercised at exercise prices ranging from $10.00 to $10.75. Additionally, 1,834 shares of restricted stock were issued to management. Based on current anticipated levels of operations and cash availability, management believes the Company is in a position to satisfy its current working capital, debt service, and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. Other The Company purchased a Reduced Skier Day Insurance Policy, a customized insurance product, for the 1999-2000 ski season. Under this policy, the Company receives a fixed payment for each paid skier day below certain targeted levels for the season. During fiscal 2000, the net benefit recognized in the financial statements from the policy was $13.9 million. The Company opted not to purchase a similar insurance product for the 2000-01 ski season. 3

Cautionary Statement Statements in this Form 10-Q, other than statements of historical information, are forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as "may", "will", "expect", "plan", "intend", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", and "continue" or similar words. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: . a significant downturn in general business and economic conditions, . unfavorable weather conditions, including inadequate snowfall in the early season, . failure to attract and retain sufficient workforce, . failure to obtain necessary approvals needed to implement planned development projects, . competition in the ski and resort industry, . failure to successfully integrate acquisitions, . adverse changes in vacation real estate markets, and . failure or delay in receiving reduced skier day insurance cash proceeds. Readers are also referred to the uncertainties and risks identified in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-4 for its Senior Subordinated Debt exchange notes (Commission File No. 333-80621) and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2000. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk Interest Rate Risk. The Company's exposure to market risk is limited primarily to the fluctuating interest rates associated with variable rate indebtedness. At October 31, 2000, the Company had $154.1 million of variable rate indebtedness, representing 37% of the Company's total debt outstanding, at an average interest rate during the quarter of 7.5% (see Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). Based on the average floating rate borrowings outstanding during the quarter, a 100 basis-point change in LIBOR would have caused the Company's monthly interest expense to change by $0.1 million. 4
