Lewis [hlewis@lindquist.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 03, 2009 1:04 PM To: Bruce Barker Cc: M. Stephen Peters Subject: ruce, Several days ago we discussed the possibility of a Chapter 11 Trustee being appointed in the Tire Recycling case. The Bankruptcy Court now has appointed a Chapter 11 Trustee in the Tire Recycling bankruptcy proceeding, as well as the related cases of Renewable Resources and Midway Landfill. The Trustee will now assume the control of and the responsibility for operating Tire Recycling. Mr. Dwain Immel will now longer have a role in the management of the Hudson site other than to respond to the Trustee's requests for information. The Trustee's name is Stephen Peters. Mr. Peters is an experienced bankruptcy attorney and is one of the Chapter 7 panel trustees in the District of Colorado. Mr. Peters has requested my law firm to represent him and assist in the administration of the Tire Recycling bankruptcy estate. My firm has agreed to represent the Trustee, subject to Bankruptcy Court approval. The overall course of action Trustee will pursue is to identify a viable and financially responsible buyer for the Hudson site and consummate a sale as quickly as possible. Presently, the Trustee is targeting a six month time frame to find the buyer, negotiate the sales contract, have the purchase agreement approved by the Bankruptcy Court, and then close the sale. To accomplish this end, there are a few issues that Mr. Peters has identified as being critical for moving this case to a successful conclusion. Perhaps the most critical issue is having the Second Amend Use By Special Review Permit #842 ("Second Amended Permit") reinstated so he can operate Tire Recycling as an on -going entity between now and when a sale is consummated. The Trustee has reached this conclusion based on two facts. First, the fair market value of the Hudson site is greatly enhanced if it is an operating business. A fundamental goal of the Trustee is to maximize the value of the site for the benefit of creditors of the bankruptcy estate. Secondly, the ability of the business to generate income is dependent on being able to service its tire dealer customers by disposing of their used tires at the landfill. Without that revenue stream, the Trustee's ability to pay ongoing costs and maintain the Debtor as an operating concern is severely hampered, if not completely compromised. I would also suggest that it is in the public interest to reopen the Hudson landfill so that tires may be properly disposed of in Weld County. The Trustee has instructed me to request an emergency hearing with the Board of County Commissioners to consider the instatement of the Second Amended Permit. If at all possible, I would request that this matter be scheduled for Monday, June 8. Both Mr. Peters and I are available that day. Unfortunately, I have a conflict on Wednesday, June 10th. 1 If the Second Amended Permit is reinstated, Mr. Peters, of course, would desire to meet with representatives from the Weld County Department of Planning Services, the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment, and other appropriate representatives of the County and State to assure the landfill would be operated in compliance with applicable laws and regulations while under his control. am attaching the following for your background information: 1) the bankruptcy judge's order approving the stipulation to appoint a Chapter 11 Trustee and directing the United States Trustee to appointment a Chapter 11 Trustee and 2) the United States Trustee's Appointment of Mr. Peters as the Trustee. I appreciate your time and assistance getting this matter before the Board. Please contact me if you have any questions that should be addressed prior to appearing before the Commissioners.

Lewis [mailto:hlewis@lindquist.com] Sent: Friday, June 12, 2009 3:10 PM To: Bruce Barker Cc: M. Stephen Peters Subject: RE: Tire Recycling Bruce, Thank you for your response to my email. Mr. Peters and I will be in attendance at 9 a.m. on Monday, June 15 in hopes that the Board does put this matter on the agenda. I would like to update you and the Board of County Commissioners on the status of the TRI bankruptcy as it relates to the Hudson site. On June 2009, the Bankruptcy Court approved the appointment of M. Stephen ,eters as Chapter 11 Trustee in the Tire Recycling Chapter 11 proceeding, as well as the affiliated Chapter 11 proceedings. The Trustee has assumed the control of and the responsibility for operating Tire Recycling. Mr. Dwain Immel no longer has a role in the mmidsemei;L of the Hudson site other than to respond to the Trustee's requests for information. Mr. Peters is an experienced bankruptcy attorney and is one of the Chapter 7 panel trustees in the District of Colorado. Mr. Peters has requested my law firm to represent him and assist in the administration of the Tire Recycling bankruptcy estate. You may remember that Magnum D'Or Resources, Inc. appeared before the Board at the last hearing in which the Board took up matters relating to TRI and the Hudson site. TRI anticipated that an agreement with Magnum to purchase the Hudson site would be forthcoming soon after the last hearing. Unfortunately, the negotiations between Mr. Immel and Magnum did not result in a final agreement. Since his appointment, the Trustee and Magnum have entered into serious negotiations and the parties have now agreed to terms and have this afternoon executed an agreement for the sale of the Hudson site from the bankruptcy estate to Magnum. The Trustee will be filing a request with the Bankruptcy Court to approve the agreement with Magnum early in next week. Transfer of the Second Amended USR # 842 from TRI to Magnum is a condition precedent to the agreement with Magnum. The Trustee is =_questing that the Commissioners lift the suspension of the Second Amended permit for two reasons. Most importantly, reinstating the Second Amended permit will allow the Trustee to move forward with the agreement with Magnum to the benefit of all parties, including, I would EXHIBIT• an 1&d 1 submit, Weld County. Second, with the Second Amended permit in place, the Trustee would be able to operate the facility and generate the income necessary to pay on -going expenses during the interim between now end when Bankruptcy Court approval of the Magnum agreement is obtained. I appreciate your time and assistance getting this matter before the Board. Please contact me if you have any questions that should be addressed prior to appearing before the Commissioners.
