10. ACL’s History on The Missouri River —Activity on the Missouri peaked in 1989 with the acquisition of SCNO Barge Lines. —390 barge loads — Activity dropped off in 1990 as ACBL fully integrated SCNO’s operations. —127 barge loads —Activity then took another significant drop in 1995 due sharp increase in dry cargo rates. —32 barge loads —The last of ACL’s activity on the Missouri ceased in 2003 with the closing of Blaske Marine. —ACL no longer owns/operates any shallow-hull boats used in the late 1980’s. 10

11. Strategic Planning —In order for a river segment to be attractive to a barge company –There must be volume potential –The volume potential needs to be ratable and financially attractive –ACL will operate on rivers with greatest lane density and loaded mile potential –When considering expanding to new rivers, ACL would use the same metrics –ACL certainly has the capability of providing modal alternatives on any river 11
