Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On July 16, 2007, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, ICG, LLC (“ICG”) the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries entered into an unsecured $25.0 million term facility (the “Term Loan”) with WLR Recovery Fund III, L.P. The Term Loan will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Company has agreed, subject to the approval of its lenders under its current Credit Facility (described below), to provide security for the Term Loan.

ICG, the Company and its subsidiaries are jointly and severally liabile for the Term Loan. The Term Loan ranks equally with all of ICG’s, the Company’s and its subsidiaries respective existing and future unsecured indebtedness, but effectively subordinated to all of their respective existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing that indebtedness. The Term Loan will mature on the earlier of (i) demand being made by the payee, (ii) September 14, 2007, 90 days from the date of the Term Loan, and (iii) the date on which the Company incurs additional debt in excess of $5.0 million. Interest on the Term Loan will accrue at the rate of LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum, payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month, subject to a 2.0% increase per annum upon the occurrence and during an event of default.

The Term Loan contains customary events of default, including, (i) failure to pay principal or interest when due or in the case of a payment demand, five days after notice is

given; (ii) the commencement of a proceeding against ICG or any Guarantor for dissolution, liquidation, or the voluntary or involuntary termination or dissolution of ICG or any of the Guarantors; (iii) insolvency of, the appointment of a custodian, trustee, liquidator or receiver for any of the property of, an assignment for the benefit of creditors by, or the filing of a petition under any bankruptcy, insolvency or debtor’s relief law, or for any readjustment of indebtedness, composition or extension by or against ICG or any Guarantor, or (iv) the occurrence of an event of default under (a) the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Facility”), dated as of June 23, 2006 (as modified from time to time) and, (b) the indenture dated as of June 23, 2006, governing the Company’s 10.25% Senior Notes due 2014. Upon the happening of an event of default as set forth above, the unpaid balance and interest on the Term Loan shall become immediately due and payable upon written notice, except in the case of (ii) and (iii) above, in which case no written notice is required.

The foregoing descriptions of the Term Loan does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by, reference to the full and complete terms of the Term Loan that is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which is incorporated into this Item 2.03 by reference.
