near full capacity production at both its manufacturing facilities.
    As previously reported, TNCLP placed its entire Blytheville, Ark. facility
and one of its two Verdigris, Okla. ammonia plants on standby in the last week
of February 2003 due to high natural gas prices.

fertilizer products.

may be considered forward-looking. Forward-looking information reflects
management's current views of future events and financial performance that
involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the
following: changes in financial markets, general economic conditions within
the agricultural industry, competitive factors and price changes (principally
nitrogen fertilizer selling prices and natural gas costs), changes in product
mix, changes in the seasonality of demand patterns, changes in weather
conditions, changes in governmental regulations and other risks described in
the "Factors That Affect Operating Performance" section of TNCLP's current
