Note 1 – Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Accounting Policies and New Accounting Pronouncements

     Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of The Hallwood Group Incorporated and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) (AMEX: HWG) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Although condensed, in the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures thereto included in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

     Organization. The Company is a holding company that currently operates in the textile products and energy business segments.

     Textile Products. Textile products operations are conducted through the Company’s wholly owned Brookwood Companies Incorporated subsidiary (“Brookwood”). Brookwood is an integrated textile firm that develops and produces innovative fabrics and related products through specialized finishing, treating and coating processes. Brookwood’s subsidiary, Strategic Technical Alliance, LLC (“STA”) markets advanced breathable, waterproof laminate and other fabrics primarily for military applications. Continued development of these fabrics for military, industrial and consumer applications is a key element of Brookwood’s business plan.

     Textile products accounts for all of the Company’s operating revenues.

     Energy. Prior to December 31, 2005, the Company had investments in Hallwood Energy Corporation (“HEC”), which was sold in December 2004 and Hallwood Energy III, L.P. (“HE III”), which was sold in July 2005, Hallwood Energy II, L.P. (“HE II”), Hallwood Energy 4, L.P. (“HE 4”) and Hallwood Exploration, L.P. (“Hallwood Exploration”). The Company owned between 20% and 28% of the entities (between 16% and 22% on a fully diluted basis) and accounted for the investments using the equity method of accounting, recording its pro rata share of net income (loss), stockholders’ equity/partners’ capital transaction and comprehensive income (loss).

     Effective December 31, 2005, HE II and Hallwood Exploration were consolidated into HE 4, which was renamed Hallwood Energy, L.P. (“Hallwood Energy”). At the consolidation date, Hallwood Energy was principally involved in acquiring oil and gas leases and drilling, gathering and sale of natural gas in the Barnett Shale formation located in Parker, Hood and Tarrant Counties in North Texas and the Barnett Shale and Woodford Shale formations in Reeves and Culberson Counties in West Texas and in the Fayetteville Shale formation of Central Eastern Arkansas, and conducting 3-D seismic surveys over optioned land covering a Salt Dome in South Louisiana in order to determine how best to proceed with exploratory activity.

     Following the completion of the energy consolidation on December 31, 2005, all energy activities are conducted by Hallwood Energy. Subsequent to the July 2006 sale of its properties in North Texas (discussed below), Hallwood Energy’s management has classified its energy investments into three identifiable areas: Central Eastern Arkansas, South Louisiana and West Texas.

     In June 2006, Hallwood Energy completed the sale of a 60% undivided working interest in its oil and gas properties in Reeves and Culberson Counties in West Texas and all of its interest in the properties in Parker, Hood and Tarrant Counties in North Texas to Chesapeake Energy Corporation (“Chesapeake”). Chesapeake assumed operation of these properties.

     At June 30, 2007, the Company owned approximately 25% (20% after consideration of profit interests) of Hallwood Energy.

     New Accounting Pronouncements. In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

     The Company has completed its evaluation and has determined that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its consolidated financial statements. The evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions. The Company does not believe there will be any material changes in its unrecognized tax positions over the next 12 months.

     The Company may from time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to its financial results. In the event the Company incurs interest and/or penalties, they will be classified in the financial statements as interest expense or administrative and selling expense, respectively.

     The Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) of the FASB has ratified EITF Issue 06-11, “Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards” (“EITF 06-11”) on June 27, 2007. In a stock-based compensation arrangement, employees may be entitled to dividends during the vesting period for nonvested shares or share units and until the exercise date for stock options. These dividend payments generally can be treated as a deductible compensation expense for income tax purposes, thereby generating an income tax benefit for the employer. At issue was how such a realized benefit should be recognized in the financial statements. The EITF has reached a conclusion that an entity should recognize the realized tax benefit as an increase in additional paid-in capital (“APIC”) and that the amount recognized in APIC should be included in the pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies on stock-based payment awards. EITF 06-11 will be effective prospectively for the income tax benefits that result from dividends on equity-classified employee share-based payment awards that are declared in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this EITF will have on its financial statements, but does not believe that it will have a material impact on its financial statements.

     On April 30, 2007, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP”) No. FIN 39-1, an amendment of FASB Interpretation No. 29. This FSP amends paragraph 3 of Interpretation 39 to replace the terms conditional contracts and exchange contracts with the term derivative instruments as defined in FASB Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. It also amends paragraph 10 of Interpretation 39 to permit a reporting entity to offset fair value amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral (a receivable) or the obligation to return cash collateral (a payable) against fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting arrangement that have been offset in accordance with the paragraph. The guidance in this FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and an entity shall recognize the effects of applying this FSP as a change in accounting principle through retrospective application for all financial statements presented unless it is impracticable to do so. The Company is still evaluating the aspects of this FSP, but does not believe it will have a material impact on its financial statements.

     At June 30, 2007, the Company owned approximately 25% (20% after consideration of profit interests) of Hallwood Energy. Certain members of Hallwood Energy’s management and employees hold profit interests in Hallwood Energy totaling approximately 21%, which entitle the holders to an allocable percentage of Hallwood Energy’s net profits after repayment of all obligations and the capital contributions by its partners. The Company accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting and records its pro rata share of Hallwood Energy’s net income (loss) and partner capital transactions.

     Hallwood Energy is an upstream energy partnership engaging in the acquisition, development, exploration, production, and sale of hydrocarbons, with a primary focus on natural gas assets. Hallwood Energy’s results of operations are and will be largely dependent on a variety of variable factors, including, but not limited to fluctuations in natural gas prices; success of its exploratory drilling activities; the ability to transport and sell its natural gas; regional and national regulatory matters; and the ability to secure, and price of, goods and services necessary to develop its oil and gas leases.

     In July 2006, Hallwood Energy completed the sale of a 60% undivided working interest in its oil and gas properties in Reeves and Culberson Counties in West Texas and all of its interest in the properties in Parker, Hood and Tarrant Counties in North Texas to Chesapeake. Chesapeake assumed operation of these properties. Following the July 2006 sale, Hallwood Energy’s management classified its energy investments into three identifiable areas: Central Eastern Arkansas, South Louisiana and West Texas.

     Certain of the Company’s officers and directors are investors in Hallwood Energy. In addition, as members of management of Hallwood Energy, one director and officer and one officer of the Company hold a profit interest in Hallwood Energy.

     A description of Hallwood Energy’s activities during 2007 are provided below.

     Loan Financing. In February 2006, Hallwood Energy entered into a $65,000,000 loan facility, and had drawn $40,000,000 as of December 31, 2006. Subsequent to December 31, 2006, Hallwood Energy was not in compliance with the proved collateral coverage ratio.

     In March 2007 and April 2007, the Company loaned $5,000,000 and $4,000,000, respectively, to Hallwood Energy, of which $7,000,000 was in the form of demand notes bearing interest at 6% above prime rate, and $2,000,000 was an advance that was repaid four days later with interest. In April 2007, Hallwood Energy made a request for additional capital contributions in the amount of $25,000,000 (the “April Call”). The Company and Hallwood Energy had agreed that the $7,000,000 of loans would be applied as the Company’s portion of the April Call. On May 10, 2007, Hallwood Energy repaid $257,000 to the Company, which represented the excess of the $7,000,000 loaned over the Company’s share of the capital contribution and related oversubscription.

     In April 2007, Hallwood Energy entered into a $100,000,000 senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with an affiliate of one of the investors and drew $65,000,000 from the Credit Facility. The proceeds were used to repay $40,000,000 in an existing note payable, pay approximately $9,800,000 for a make-whole fee and incremental interest of approximately $500,000 to the original lender related to the $40,000,000 note payable, and transaction fees of approximately $200,000. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by Hallwood Energy’s oil and gas leases, mature on February 1, 2010, and bear interest at a rate of the

defined LIBOR rate plus 10.75% per annum. An additional 2% of interest is added upon continuance of any defaulting event. The new lender may demand that Hallwood Energy prepay the outstanding loans in the event of a defined change of control, qualified sale or event of default, including a material adverse event. In conjunction with executing the Credit Facility, the new lender resigned its position on the board of directors and assigned its interest in the general partner to the remaining members.

     The Credit Facility contains a provision that, if Hallwood Energy raised $25,000,000 through an equity call or debt subordinate to the Credit Facility, the new lender would match amounts subsequently raised in excess of the $25,000,000 on a dollar for dollar basis up to the remaining $35,000,000 under the Credit Facility through the availability termination date of July 31, 2008. Hallwood Energy successfully completed the $25,000,000 funding requirement as a result of the April Call.

     The Credit Facility contains various financial covenants, including maximum general and administrative expenditures and current and proved collateral coverage ratios. The proved collateral coverage ratio covenant is effective June 30, 2008. Non-financial covenants restrict the ability of Hallwood Energy to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, prepay other indebtedness or amend certain debt instruments, pay dividends, create liens on assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, make investments, loans or advances, make acquisitions, engage in mergers or consolidations or engage in certain transactions with affiliates, and otherwise restrict certain activities by Hallwood Energy.

     The Credit Facility contains a make-whole provision whereby Hallwood Energy is required to pay the lender the amount by which the present value of interest and principal from the date of prepayment through January 31, 2009, exceeds the principal amount on the prepayment date. The lender received warrants exercisable for 2.5% of the partnership interests at an exercise price of 2.5% of 125% of the amount of the total capital contributed to Hallwood Energy at December 31, 2006.

     Equity Investments. In November 2006, Hallwood Energy requested an additional capital contribution in the amount of $25,000,000 from its partners. The Company invested an additional $6,281,000 to maintain its proportionate interest in Hallwood Energy. The Company utilized a $452,000 capital contribution receivable to reduce its cash contribution to $5,829,000. In addition, certain other investors in Hallwood Energy did not elect to fund their proportionate interest of the additional capital contribution; therefore, in December 2006, the Company invested an additional $425,000 and $2,000 in January 2007 in excess of its proportionate interest. These contributions were made from existing cash.

     Hallwood Energy issued the $25,000,000 April Call to its partners on April 14, 2007, which was successfully completed in May 2007. Previously, Hallwood Energy received loans of $7,000,000 each from the Company and an affiliate of the new lender. These loans were applied to the April Call. In May, Hallwood Energy repaid $257,000 to the Company, which represented the excess of the $7,000,000 advanced over the Company’s share of the capital contribution and related oversubscription.

     In April 2007, HIL and the new lender each committed to fund one-half of the April Call and potential additional equity or subordinated debt funding calls totaling $55,000,000 by Hallwood Energy, to the extent other investors, including the Company, do not respond to a call. Hallwood Energy issued a $20,000,000 equity call to its partners on May 21, 2007 (the “May Call”), which was due on July 1, 2007. The Company’s proportionate share of the May Call was $5,091,000. Due to the fact that the Company did not have available sufficient cash, the Company contributed only $2,501,000 towards the May Call. Because of the Company’s inability to meet its full equity call requirement, Hallwood Investments Limited (“HIL”), a corporation associated with Mr. Anthony J. Gumbiner, the Company’s chairman and principal stockholder, funded the $2,591,000 of the May Call that was not funded by the Company. In connection with the funding of this amount, HIL and Mr. Gumbiner agreed that they would discuss and negotiate in the future with a special committee of the Board of Directors of the Company the terms on which this additional equity was contributed by HIL. As of August 8, 2007, $1,463,000 of the May Call remained unfunded by partners of Hallwood Energy other than the Company and HIL. It is anticipated that additional funding necessary to satisfy the May Call will be provided in August 2007, either by those partners who initially funded the May Call or by HIL and the new lender, in accordance with terms of their commitment letters.

     For the funds received as a result of the April Call and the May Call, Hallwood Energy issued preferred partnership interests that have a preferential right to any distributions made by Hallwood Energy from operations or upon liquidation. The preferential right is equal to the amount of the capital contributed with respect to the preferred interest plus 16% per annum, compounded monthly. The preferred interests will receive this priority return before any amounts are paid to the common interests issued for all previous investments in Hallwood Energy. The capital contributed plus the accumulated 16% return attributable to any preferred interest is also convertible to common partnership interests at any time at a price equal to the price of the common partnership interests at December 31, 2006. Distributions on the preferred partnership interests will be accrued and become payable when, as

and if declared by the general partner of Hallwood Energy. Hallwood Energy does not anticipate paying any distributions in the foreseeable future.

     Litigation. In early 2006, Hallwood Energy and Hallwood Petroleum entered into two two-year contracts with Eagle Drilling, LLC under which the contractor was to provide drilling rigs and crews to drill wells in Arkansas at a daily rate of $18,500, plus certain expenses for each rig. These contracts were subsequently assigned by Eagle Drilling, LLC to Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC on or about August 24, 2006. Before that, on or about August 14, 2006, one of the masts on the rigs provided under the contracts collapsed. Hallwood Energy and Hallwood Petroleum requested the contractor to provide assurances that the mast on the other rig, and any mast provided to replace the collapsed mast, were safe and met the requirements of the contracts. When the contractor refused to provide assurances, Hallwood Energy and Hallwood Petroleum notified the contractor that the contracts were terminated and on September 6, 2006, filed Hallwood Petroleum, LLC and Hallwood Energy, L.P. v. Eagle Drilling, LLC and Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC, in the 348th District Court of Tarrant County, Texas to recover approximately $1,688,000 previously deposited with the contractor under the contracts. Since then, Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC and its parent filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in In re Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations LLC, Case No. 07-30426-H4-11, Jointly Administered Under Case No. 07-30424-H4-11, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas. Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC filed an adversary action on June 11, 2007 against Hallwood Energy and Hallwood Petroleum in the bankruptcy proceeding to recover unspecified damages, but purportedly in excess of $10,000,000. Eagle Domestic alleges breach of the drilling contracts and tortuous interference and business disparagement by Hallwood Energy in connection with drilling contracts Eagle Domestic had with Quicksilver Resources, Inc. Eagle Drilling, LLC has filed a related lawsuit against Hallwood Energy and Hallwood Petroleum in Oklahoma state court alleging damages of over $1 million in connection with unpaid invoices, unpaid downtime and other damages caused as a result of the mast collapsing. Hallwood Energy is currently unable to determine the impact that this litigation may have on its results of operations or its financial position.

outstanding capital stock of Brookwood and its subsidiaries. The facility bears interest at Brookwood’s option of Prime, or Libor plus 1.25% — 1.75% (variable depending on compliance ratios) and contains various covenants. The interest rate was a blended rate of 7.30% and 7.48% at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The outstanding balance at June 30, 2007 was $14,596,000 and Brookwood had $7,404,000 of borrowing availability under this facility.

     Equipment Term Loans. Brookwood has a revolving equipment credit facility in an amount up to $3,000,000 with Key Bank. Interest rates for the equipment term loans varied between 5.60% and 8.60% with a blended rate of 6.97% and 7.17% at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The outstanding balance at June 30, 2007 was $308,000 and Brookwood had $2,692,000 of borrowing availability under this facility.

     Loan Covenants. Brookwood was in compliance with its loan covenants for the first two quarters of 2007 and for all quarters in 2006. The Key Working Capital Revolving Credit Facility provides for a total debt to tangible net worth ratio covenant and a covenant that Brookwood shall maintain a quarterly minimum net income of not less than one dollar. Cash dividends and tax sharing payments to the Company are contingent upon Brookwood’s compliance with the covenants contained in the loan agreement.

     Renewal of Credit Facilities. Both of the Key Bank facilities, which had original maturities of January 2007, were renewed in March 2006 for a period of three years with a new maturity of January 30, 2010. The amounts of the respective facilities and the loan covenants were unchanged; however, the interest rate on the Key Working Capital Revolving Credit Facility was reduced, at Brookwood’s option, from Prime plus 0.25% or Libor + 1.75% — 3.00% (variable depending on compliance ratios).

Note 5 – Stockholders’ Equity

     Stock Options. The Company established the 1995 Stock Option Plan for The Hallwood Group Incorporated which authorized the granting of nonqualified stock options to employees, directors and consultants of the Company. The 1995 Plan authorized options to purchase up to 244,800 shares of common stock of the Company. The exercise prices of all options granted were at the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant, had an expiration date of ten years from date of grant and were fully vested on the date of grant.

          The 1995 Stock Option Plan terminated on June 27, 2005. At June 30, 2007, the Company had 4,500 fully vested options outstanding which expire in May 2010. Options issued prior to the termination are not affected; however, no new options can be issued under the 1995 Plan.

     In January 2007, one officer of the Company exercised options to purchase 2,250 shares of the Company’s common stock that were scheduled to expire in February 2007. The officer paid the exercise price and related tax withholding requirement by exchanging an equivalent number of common shares valued at the fair market value of the common stock at the time of exercise. The net result of the exercise and exchange was the issuance of 1,273 shares from treasury at an average carrying value of $14.97 per share.

     In June 2007, two officers of the Company exercised options to purchase a total of 7,500 shares of the Company’s common stock that were scheduled to expire in September 2007. The officers paid the exercise price and related tax withholding requirement by exchanging an equivalent number of common shares valued at the fair market value of the common stock at the time of exercise. The net result of the exercises and exchanges was the issuance of 3,955 shares from treasury at an average carrying value of $15.08 per share.

     The net deferred tax asset was $6,063,000 and $1,655,000 at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The deferred tax asset was comprised of projected taxable losses for the six months ended June 30, 2007 that can be carried back for a refund, temporary differences that, upon reversal, can be utilized to offset income from operations and $531,000 of alternative minimum credits. The effective federal tax rate in both periods was 34%. State taxes are determined based upon taxable income apportioned to those states in which the Company does business at their respective tax rates.

     Prepaid federal income taxes, attributable to the anticipated carryback of its 2006 taxable loss, was $2,861,000 and $3,861,000 at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The Company filed an application for tentative refund with the Internal Revenue Service in March 2007 and received a $1,000,000 refund in April 2007. The Company expects to file a carryback of its 2006 taxable loss in September 2007 to obtain the additional refund.

Note 9 – Related Party Transactions

     Hallwood Investments Limited. The Company has entered into a financial consulting contract with Hallwood Investments Limited (“HIL”), a corporation associated with Mr. Anthony J. Gumbiner, the Company’s chairman and principal stockholder. The contract provides for HIL to furnish and perform international consulting and advisory services to the Company and its subsidiaries, including strategic planning and merger activities, for annual compensation of $996,000. The annual amount is payable in monthly installments. The contract automatically renews for one-year periods if not terminated by the parties beforehand. Additionally, HIL and Mr. Gumbiner are also eligible for bonuses from the Company or its subsidiaries, subject to approval by the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ board of directors. The Company also reimburses HIL for reasonable expenses in providing office space and administrative services and for travel and related expenses to and from the Company’s United States office. In addition, the Company also reimbursed Mr. Gumbiner for services, meals and other personal expenses related to the office separately maintained by Mr. Gumbiner. At Mr. Gumbiner’s recommendation, the Company’s board of directors determined in 2006 that the reimbursement for personal expenses related to his office would not continue after November 2006.

     A summary of the fees and expenses related to HIL and Mr. Gumbiner are detailed below (in thousands):

		Three Months Ended								Six Months Ended

     In addition, HIL and Mr. Gumbiner perform services for certain affiliated entities that are not subsidiaries of the Company, for which they receive consulting fees, bonuses, stock options, profit interests or other forms of compensation and expenses. The Company recognizes a proportionate share of such compensation and expenses, based upon its ownership percentage in the affiliated entities, through the utilization of the equity method of accounting.

     HIL shares common offices, facilities and certain staff in its Dallas office with the Company. The Company pays certain common general and administrative expenses and charges HIL an overhead reimbursement fee for its allocable share of the expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, HIL reimbursed the Company $37,000 and $35,000, respectively, for such expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, HIL reimbursed the Company $75,000 and $74,000, respectively.

     In April 2007, HIL committed to fund one-half of potential additional equity or subordinated debt funding calls of $55,000,000, or $27,500,000, by Hallwood Energy, to the extent other investors, including the Company, do not respond to a call. In June 2007, HIL funded that portion of the Company’s share of the May Call in the amount of $2,591,000 that the Company did not fund and is expected to contribute, along with the new lender, an additional amount in August 2007 to fully satisfy the May Call, to the extent other Hallwood Energy investors did not respond to the May Call.

     Hallwood Energy. Hallwood Energy and its predecessor entities share common offices, facilities and certain staff in its Dallas office with the Company. Hallwood Energy reimburses the Company for its allocable share of the expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, Hallwood Energy reimbursed the Company $65,000 and $97,000 for such expenses, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, Hallwood Energy reimbursed the Company $125,000 and $132,000, respectively.

Note 10 – Litigation, Contingencies and Commitments

     Reference is made to Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements contained in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

          Litigation. From time to time, the Company, certain of its affiliates and others have been named as defendants in lawsuits relating to various transactions in which it or its affiliated entities participated. In the Company’s opinion, no litigation in which the Company, subsidiaries or affiliates is a party is likely to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operation or cash flows.

          On July 31, 2007, Nextec Applications, Inc. filed Nextec Applications, Inc. v. Brookwood Companies Incorporated and The Hallwood Group Incorporated in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (SDNY No. CV 07-6901) claiming that the defendants infringed five United States patents pertaining to internally-coated webs: U.S. Patent No. 5,418,051; 5,856,245; 5,869,172; 6,071,602 and 6,129,978. Brookwood and the Company intend to respond to the complaint and vigorously defend these claims.

     Hallwood Energy. As a significant investor in Hallwood Energy, the Company may be impacted by litigation involving Hallwood Energy. Refer to Note 3 for a further description of certain litigation involving Hallwood Energy.

     Environmental Contingencies. A number of jurisdictions in which the Company operates have adopted laws and regulations relating to environmental matters. Such laws and regulations may require the Company to secure governmental permits and approvals and undertake measures to comply therewith. Compliance with the requirements imposed may be time-consuming and costly. While environmental considerations, by themselves, have not significantly affected the Company’s business to date, it is possible that such considerations may have a significant and adverse impact in the future. The Company actively monitors its environmental compliance and while certain matters currently exist, management is not aware of any compliance issues which will significantly impact the financial position, operations or cash flows of the Company.

     In August 2005, the Rhode Island Department of Health (“RIDOH”) issued a compliance order to Kenyon Industries, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Brookwood, (“Kenyon”), alleging that Kenyon is a non-community water system and ordering Kenyon to comply with the RIDOH program for public water supply systems. Kenyon contested the compliance order and an administrative hearing was held in November 2005. No decision has been rendered. Complying with the RIDOH requirements would necessitate revamping of the plant’s water supply system and associated costs of approximately $100,000.

     In August 2005, Kenyon received a Notice of Alleged Violation from The Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (“RIDEM”) with notification that Kenyon had failed to comply timely with a requirement to test the destruction efficiency of a thermal oxidizer at its Kenyon plant and that when the test was conducted the equipment was not operating at the required efficiency. Since that time, Kenyon has upgraded and retested the equipment, which met the requirements on the retest. RIDEM has requested additional information regarding the failed test and Kenyon’s remedial actions, which Kenyon has provided.

          In February 2007, RIDEM issued a Notice of Violation (“NOV”) accompanied by a $14,000 fine. Kenyon requested an informal hearing to dispute the allegations in the NOV and the fine. As a result of the informal hearing held in March 2007, a consent agreement was executed and a $9,500 fine was remitted to RIDEM to close this matter.

     In June 2007, RIDEM issued a NOV to Kenyon, alleging that the Company violated certain provisions of its wastewater discharge permit and seeking an administrative penalty of $79,000. Kenyon has filed an Answer and Request for Hearing in which it disputes certain allegations in the NOV and the amount of the penalty.

     On June 18, 2007, the Company received a proposal from Anthony J. Gumbiner, the chairman of the board and beneficial owner of 66% of the outstanding common shares of the Company.

     Mr. Gumbiner proposed that the Company’s board of directors consider a liquidation of the Company that would include a sale of all of the Company’s interests in its Brookwood subsidiary and a disposition of all of the Company’s interests in Hallwood Energy. As part of the liquidation proposal, Mr. Gumbiner proposed that Brookwood be sold for cash and the net sale proceeds be distributed to all the Company shareholders pro rata. He also proposed that his pro rata portion of the Company’s interests in Hallwood Energy be distributed to him and that he enter into negotiations to purchase the Company’s remaining interests in Hallwood Energy for cash, which would be distributed to the other shareholders of the Company. Finally, Mr. Gumbiner proposed that if he were to purchase the Company’s remaining interests in Hallwood Energy, other “accredited” and otherwise qualified shareholders of the Company be given the opportunity to receive in lieu of cash a pro rata portion of the Hallwood Energy interests.

     The Company’s board of directors has established a special committee of directors to review the proposal. The special committee has been authorized by the Company’s board of directors to review any alternative proposals that may be received by the Company or the special committee. No decisions have been made by the special committee with respect to whether to recommend approval of the proposal to the Company’s board of directors. There can be no assurance that any agreement on terms satisfactory to the special committee will result from the special committee’s evaluation of the proposal by Mr. Gumbiner or any other proposals, or that any transaction will be completed.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

     General. The Company is a holding company with interests in textiles and energy.

     Textile Products. The Company derives substantially all of its operating revenues from the textile activities of its Brookwood Companies Incorporated (“Brookwood”) subsidiary; consequently, the Company’s success is highly dependent upon Brookwood’s success. Brookwood’s success will be influenced in varying degrees by its ability to continue sales to existing customers, cost and availability of supplies, Brookwood’s response to competition, its ability to generate new markets and products and the effect of global trade regulation. Although the Company’s textile activities have generated positive cash flow in recent years, there is no assurance that this trend will continue.

     While Brookwood has enjoyed substantial growth from its military business, there is no assurance this trend will continue. Brookwood’s sales to the customers from whom it derives its military business have been more volatile and difficult to predict, a trend the Company believes will continue. In recent years, orders from the military for goods generally were significantly affected by the increased activity of the U.S. military. If this activity does not continue or declines, then orders from the military generally, including orders for Brookwood’s products, may be similarly affected. Military sales of $16,656,000 and $28,692,000 for the 2007 second quarter and six month periods, respectively, were 26% higher and 1% lower than the comparable periods in 2006 of $13,186,000 and $28,914,000.

     The military had limited orders in the 2007 first quarter and preceding quarters for existing products and adopted revised specifications for new products to replace the products for which Brookwood’s customers have been suppliers. However, the U.S. Government recently released orders in the 2007 second quarter for goods that include Brookwood’s products. Changes in specifications or orders presents a potential opportunity for additional sales; however, it is a continuing challenge to adjust to changing specifications and production requirements. Brookwood is currently conducting research and development on various processes and products intended to comply with the revised specifications and participating in the bidding process for the new military products. The 2007 second quarter sales includes revenue from some of these new military products. However, to the extent Brookwood’s products are not included in future purchases by the U.S. government for any reason, Brookwood’s sales could be adversely affected. In addition, the U.S. government is releasing contracts for shorter periods than in the past. The Company acknowledges the unpredictability in revenues and margins due to military sales and is unable at this time to predict future sale trends.

     Unstable global nylon and chemical pricing, and increasing domestic energy costs, coupled with a varying product mix have and will continue to cause fluctuations in Brookwood’s margins, a trend that appears likely to continue.

     Brookwood continues to identify new market niches intended to replace sales lost to importers. In addition to its existing products and proprietary technologies, Brookwood has been developing advanced breathable, waterproof laminate and other materials, which have been well received by its customers. Continued development of these fabrics for military, industrial and consumer applications is a key element of Brookwood’s business plan. The ongoing enterprise value of Brookwood is contingent on its ability to maintain its level of military business and adapt to the global textile industry; however, there can be no assurance that the positive results of the past can be sustained or that competitors will not aggressively seek to replace products developed by Brookwood.

     The textile industry is also significantly affected by legislation and administrative actions restricting or liberalizing trade among world textile producing and consuming countries such as the North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”), the World Trade Organization (“WTO”), the anti-dumping and countervailing duty remedies and enforcement activities by the U.S. Government, and the value of the U.S. dollar in relation to other currencies and world economic developments. However, under NAFTA there are no textile and apparel quotas between the U.S. and either Mexico or Canada for products that meet certain origin criteria. Tariffs among the three countries are either already zero or are being phased out. Also, the WTO recently phased out textile and apparel quotas.

     The U.S. has also approved the Central American-Dominican Republic Free Trade Agreement (“CAFTA”) with several Central American countries (Costa Rica, The Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua). Under CAFTA, textiles and apparel originating from CAFTA countries will be duty and quota-free, provided that yarn formed in the U.S. or other CAFTA countries is used to produce the fabric. In addition, the United States recently implemented bilateral free trade agreements with Bahrain, Chile, Israel, Jordan, Morocco and Singapore. Although these actions have the effect of exposing

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Brookwood’s market to the lower price structures of the other countries and, therefore, continuing to increase competitive pressures, management is not able to predict their specific impact.

     The textile products business is not interdependent with the Company’s other business operations. The Company does not guarantee the Brookwood bank facility and is not obligated to contribute additional capital.

     Energy. Hallwood Energy is an upstream energy partnership engaging in the acquisition, development, exploration, production, and sale of hydrocarbons, with a primary focus on natural gas assets. Hallwood Energy’s results of operations are and will be largely dependent on a variety of variable factors, including, but not limited to fluctuations in natural gas prices; success of its exploratory drilling activities; the ability to transport and sell its natural gas; regional and national regulatory matters; and the ability to secure, and price of, good and services necessary to develop its oil and gas leases. As of June 30, 2007, the Company owned approximately 25% (20% after consideration of profits interest) of Hallwood Energy.

     Hallwood Energy will require significant additional capital investment over the next few years to acquire additional properties and to adequately explore and develop existing and any new properties.

     Refer also to the section “Investments in and Loans to Hallwood Energy” for a further description of the Company’s energy activities.

     Presentation

     The Company intends the discussion of its financial condition and results of operations that follows to provide information that will assist in understanding its financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from year to year, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affect its financial statements.

     Results of Operations

     The Company reported a net loss for the 2007 second quarter of $573,000, compared to a net loss of $499,000 in 2006. Revenue for the 2007 second quarter was $32,065,000, compared to $28,698,000 in 2006.

     The net loss for the 2007 six month period was $7,897,000, compared to a net loss of $35,000 in 2006. Revenue for the 2007 six month period was $60,373,000, compared to $59,473,000 in 2006.

     Revenues

     Textile products sales of $32,065,000 increased by $3,367,000, or 11.7%, in the 2007 second quarter, compared to $28,698,000 in 2006. Sales for the six month period increased by $900,000, or 1.5%, to $60,373,000, compared to $59,473,000 in 2006. The increase in the 2007 second quarter was principally due to an increase of sales of specialty fabric to U.S. military contractors, as a result of increased orders which included new products from the military to Brookwood’s customers. Sales for the 2007 six month period were up only minimally due to the limitation of military orders in the first quarter which were pending the adoption of revised specifications for new products to replace the products for which Brookwood’s customers have been suppliers.

     Sales to one customer, Tennier Industries, Inc. (“Tennier”) accounted for more than 10% of Brookwood’s net sales during both the 2007 and 2006 three month and six month periods. Its relationship with Tennier is ongoing. Sales to Tennier, which are included in military sales, were $8,675,000 and $15,570,000 in the 2007 second quarter and six month periods, respectively, compared to $7,152,000 and $16,695,000 in 2006. Sales to Tennier represented 27.1% and 24.9% of Brookwood’s net sales in the 2007 and 2006 quarters, respectively, and 25.8% and 28.1% in the 2007 and 2006 six month periods, respectively. Sales to another customer, ORC Industries, Inc. (“ORC”) accounted for more than 10% of Brookwood’s sales in 2006. Its relationship with ORC is ongoing. Sales to ORC, which are included in military sales, were $2,024,000 and $4,230,000 in the 2007 second quarter and six month periods, respectively, compared to $3,440,000 and $7,271,000 in 2006. Sales to ORC represented 6.3% and 12.0% of Brookwood’s net sales in the 2007 and 2006 quarters, respectively, and 7.0% and 12.2% in the 2007 and 2006 six month periods, respectively.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Through 2005, military sales, including the sales to Tennier and ORC, generally comprised an increased portion of Brookwood’s total sales and a greater share of gross profit. However, Brookwood has experienced reduced military sales since 2005. Military sales accounted for $16,656,000 and $28,692,000 in the 2007 second quarter and six month periods, respectively, compared to $13,186,000 and $28,914,000 in 2006. The military sales represented 51.9% and 45.9% of Brookwood’s net sales in the 2007 and 2006 quarters, respectively, and 47.5% and 48.6% in the 2007 and 2006 six month periods, respectively.

     Expenses

     Textile products cost of sales of $25,958,000 for the 2007 second quarter increased by $1,960,000, or 8.2%, compared to $23,998,000 in 2006. For the six month periods, textile products cost of sales of $50,247,000 for 2007 increased by $1,430,000, or 2.9%, compared to $48,817,000 in 2006. The 2007 second quarter increase principally resulted from higher sales, while the increase for the six month period was due principally to changes in product mix. Cost of sales includes all costs associated with the manufacturing process, including but not limited to, materials, labor, utilities, depreciation on manufacturing equipment and all costs associated with the purchase, receipt and transportation of goods and materials to Brookwood’s facilities, including inbound freight, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, internal transfer costs and other costs of the distribution network. Brookwood believes that the reporting and composition of cost of sales and gross margin is comparable with similar companies in the textile converting and finishing industry.

     The higher gross profit margin for the 2007 second quarter, 19.0% versus 16.4%, and lower margin for the 2007 six month period, 16.8% versus 17.9%, principally resulted from changes in customer volume and product mix.

     Administrative and selling expenses were comprised of the following (in thousands):

		Three Months Ended								Six Months Ended
		June 30,								June 30,
		2007				2006				2007				2006
Textile products		$	3,454			$	3,299			$	6,975			$	6,780
Corporate			1,273				1,333				2,356				2,502
Total		$	4,727			$	4,632			$	9,331			$	9,282

     Textile products administrative and selling expenses for the 2007 second quarter increased by $155,000, or 4.7%, from 2006. For the six months, selling and administrative expenses increased by $195,000, or 2.9%, compared to 2006. The increases were primarily attributable to higher professional fees, computer expenses associated with the implementation of Sarbanes-Oxley compliance systems, and rents in 2007 totaling $151,000 and $220,000 for the three month and six month periods, respectively. Expenses for the 2007 six month period were offset by reductions in repairs and samples. The textile products administrative and selling expenses included items such as payroll, professional fees, sales commissions, marketing, rent, insurance, travel and royalties. Brookwood conducts research and development activities related to the exploration, development and production of innovative products and technologies. Research and development costs were approximately $327,000 and $334,000 in the 2007 and 2006 six month periods, respectively.

     Corporate administrative expenses decreased $60,000, or 4.5%, for the 2007 second quarter, compared to 2006. For the six months, corporate expenses decreased $146,000, or 5.8%, compared to 2006. The decreases were principally attributable to reduced professional fees of $152,000 and $293,000 for the three month and six month periods, respectively, and lower reimbursement of office expenses to HIL of $65,000 and $130,000 for the three month and six month periods, partially offset by an increase in Sarbanes-Oxley costs of $197,000 and $263,000 for the three and six month periods, respectively.

     Other Income (Loss)

     For the 2007 second quarter, the equity loss from the Company’s investments in Hallwood Energy, representing the Company’s pro rata share of loss in Hallwood Energy, was $1,873,000, compared to $684,000 in 2006. For the six months, the equity loss was $12,376,000, compared to $1,034,000 in 2006.

     In the 2007 first quarter, Hallwood Energy reported a loss of $41,799,000, which included an impairment of $31,680,000 associated with its oil and gas properties, and $7,100,000 as a portion of a make-whole fee in connection with the April 2007 prepayment of the former credit facility. The make-whole fee was included in interest expense.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     In the 2007 second quarter, Hallwood Energy reported a loss of $7,459,000, which included $1,894,000 as a portion of a make-whole fee in connection with the new credit facility and $619,000 as a portion of a make-whole fee in connection with the former credit facility.

     In July 2007, Hallwood Energy announced its first gas sales from its newly constructed gathering system in Central Eastern Arkansas. Natural gas began flowing through the system at rates exceeding 6 million cubic feet of gas per day. The $5,000,000 system will initially contain 15 miles of gathering pipelines in White County and Hallwood Energy anticipates additional expansion to support the three rig drilling program presently underway.

     The 2006 results for Hallwood Energy include production from two wells in North Texas, while operations in the West Texas, South Louisiana and Central Eastern Arkansas regions remain in the exploratory stage at June 30, 2007.

     The Company earned interest income of $80,000 and $92,000 for the 2007 second quarter and six month periods, respectively, from loans it made to Hallwood Energy in the period from March to May 2007.

     Interest expense was $283,000 and $509,000 in the 2007 second quarter and six month periods, respectively, compared to $134,000 and $251,000 in the 2006 periods. Interest expense principally relates to Brookwood’s Key Bank revolving credit facility. The increases in interest expense were principally due to an increase in the average outstanding loan amount.

     Interest and other income was $55,000 and $236,000 in the 2007 second quarter and six month periods, respectively, compared to $126,000 and $234,000 in 2006. The increase for the six month period was principally due to the gain from the sale of a marketable security sold in March 2007, partially offset by reduced interest income earned on lower balances of cash and cash equivalents.

     Income Taxes

     Following is a schedule of income tax expense (benefit) (in thousands):

		Three Months Ended								Six Months Ended
		June 30,								June 30,
		2007				2006				2007				2006
Federal
Deferred		$	(297	)		$	(269	)		$	(4,091	)		$	(19	)

Sub-total			229				144				226				377
Total		$	(68	)		$	(125	)		$	(3,865	)		$	358

     At June 30, 2007, the deferred tax asset was attributable to projected taxable losses that can be carried back for a refund, temporary differences, that upon reversal, could be utilized to offset income from operations and alternative minimum tax credits. The effective federal tax rate in both periods was 34%, while state taxes are determined based upon taxable income apportioned to those states in which the Company does business at their respective tax rates.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Investments in and Loans to Hallwood Energy

     At June 30, 2007, the Company owned approximately 25% (20% after consideration of profits interests) of Hallwood Energy. Certain members of Hallwood Energy’s management and employees hold profit interests in Hallwood Energy totaling approximately 21%, which entitle the holders to an allocable percentage of Hallwood Energy’s net profits after repayment of all obligations and the capital contributions by its partners. The Company accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting and records its pro rata share of Hallwood Energy’s net income (loss) and partner capital transactions.

     A description of Hallwood Energy’s activities during 2007 are provided below.

     Loan Financing. In February 2006, Hallwood Energy entered into a $65,000,000 loan facility, and had drawn $40,000,000 as of December 31, 2006. Subsequent to December 31, 2006, Hallwood Energy was not in compliance with the proved collateral coverage ratio.

     In March and April 2007, the Company loaned a total of $5,000,000 and $4,000,000, respectively, to Hallwood Energy, of which $7,000,000 was in the form of demand notes bearing interest at 6% above prime rate, and $2,000,000 was an advance that was repaid four days later with interest. In April 2007, Hallwood Energy made a request for additional capital contributions in the amount of $25,000,000 (the “April Call”). The Company and Hallwood Energy had agreed that the $7,000,000 of loans would be applied as the Company’s portion of the April Call. On May 10, 2007, Hallwood Energy repaid $257,000 to the Company, which represented the excess of the $7,000,000 loaned over the Company’s share of the capital contribution and related oversubscription.

     In April 2007, Hallwood Energy entered into a $100,000,000 senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with an affiliate of one of the investors and drew $65,000,000 from the Credit Facility. The proceeds were used to repay $40,000,000 in an existing note payable, pay approximately $9,800,000 for a make-whole fee and incremental interest of approximately $500,000 to the original lender related to the $40,000,000 note payable, and transaction fees of approximately $200,000. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by Hallwood Energy’s oil and gas leases, mature on February 1, 2010, and bear interest at a rate of the defined LIBOR rate plus 10.75% per annum. An additional 2% of interest is added upon continuance of any defaulting event. The new lender may demand that Hallwood Energy prepay the outstanding loans in the event of a defined change of control, qualified sale or event of default, including a material adverse event. In conjunction with executing the Credit Facility, the new lender resigned its position on the board of directors and assigned its interest in the general partner to the remaining members.

     The Credit Facility contains a provision that if Hallwood Energy raised $25,000,000 through an equity call or through debt subordinate to the Credit Facility, the new lender would match amounts subsequently raised in excess of the $25,000,000 on a dollar for dollar basis up to the remaining $35,000,000 under the Credit Facility through the availability termination date of July 31, 2008. Hallwood Energy successfully completed the $25,000,000 funding requirement as a result of the April Call.

     The Credit Facility contains various financial covenants, including maximum general and administrative expenditures and current and proved collateral coverage ratios. The proved collateral coverage ratio covenant is effective June 30, 2008. Non-financial covenants restrict the ability of Hallwood Energy to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, prepay other indebtedness or amend certain debt instruments, pay dividends, create liens on assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, make investments, loans or advances, make acquisitions, engage in mergers or consolidations or engage in certain transactions with affiliates, and otherwise restrict certain activities by Hallwood Energy.

     The Credit Facility contains a make-whole provision whereby Hallwood Energy is required to pay the lender the amount by which the present value of interest and principal from the date of prepayment through January 31, 2009, exceeds the principal amount on the prepayment date. The lender received warrants exercisable for 2.5% of the partnership interests at an exercise price of 2.5% of 125% of the amount of the total capital contributed to Hallwood Energy at December 31, 2006.

     Equity Investments. In November 2006, Hallwood Energy requested an additional capital contribution in the amount of $25,000,000 from its partners. The Company invested an additional $6,281,000 to maintain its proportionate interest in Hallwood Energy. The Company utilized a $452,000 capital contribution receivable to reduce its cash contribution to $5,829,000. In addition, certain other investors in Hallwood Energy did not elect to fund their proportionate interest of the additional capital contribution; therefore, in December 2006, the Company invested an additional $425,000 and $2,000 in January 2007 in excess of its proportionate interest. These contributions were made from existing cash.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Hallwood Energy issued the $25,000,000 April Call to its partners on April 14, 2007, which was successfully completed in May 2007. Previously, Hallwood Energy received loans of $7,000,000 each from the Company and an affiliate of the new lender. These advances were applied to the April Call. In May, Hallwood Energy repaid $257,000 to the Company, which represented the excess of the $7,000,000 advanced over the Company’s share of the capital contribution and related oversubscription.

     In April 2007, HIL and the new lender each committed to fund one-half of the April Call and potential additional equity or subordinated debt funding calls totaling $55,000,000 by Hallwood Energy, to the extent other investors, including the Company, do not respond to a call. Hallwood Energy issued a $20,000,000 equity call to its partners on May 21, 2007 (the “May Call”), which was due on July 1, 2007. The Company’s proportionate share of the May Call was $5,091,000. Due to the fact that the Company did not have sufficient cash available, the Company contributed only $2,501,000 towards the May Call. Because of the Company’s inability to meet its full equity call requirement, Hallwood Investments Limited (“HIL”), a corporation associated with Mr. Anthony J. Gumbiner, the Company’s chairman and principal stockholder, funded the $2,591,000 of the May Call that was not funded by the Company. In connection with the funding of this amount, HIL and Mr. Gumbiner agreed that they would discuss and negotiate in the future with a special committee of the Board of Directors of the Company the terms on which this additional equity was contributed by HIL. As of August 8, 2007, $1,463,000 of the May Call remained unfunded by partners of Hallwood Energy other than the Company and HIL. It is anticipated that additional funding necessary to satisfy the May Call will be provided in August 2007, either by those partners who initially funded the May Call or by HIL and the new lender, in accordance with terms of their commitment letters.

     For the funds received as a result of the April Call and the May Call, Hallwood Energy issued or will issue preferred partnership interests that will have a preferential right to any distributions made by Hallwood Energy from operations or upon liquidation. The preferential right will be equal to the amount of the capital contributed with respect to the preferred interest plus 16% per annum, compounded monthly. The preferred interests will receive this priority return before any amounts are paid to the common interests issued for all previous investments in Hallwood Energy. The capital contributed plus the accumulated 16% return attributable to any preferred interest is also convertible to common partnership interests at any time at a price equal to the price of the common partnership interests at December 31, 2006. Distributions on the preferred partnership interests will initially be accrued and become payable when, as and if declared by the general partner of Hallwood Energy. Hallwood Energy does not anticipate paying any distributions in the foreseeable future.

     Litigation. In early 2006, Hallwood Energy and Hallwood Petroleum entered into two two-year contracts with Eagle Drilling, LLC under which the contractor was to provide drilling rigs and crews to drill wells in Arkansas at a daily rate of $18,500, plus certain expenses for each rig. These contracts were subsequently assigned by Eagle Drilling, LLC to Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC on or about August 24, 2006. Before that, on or about August 14, 2006, one of the masts on the rigs provided under the contracts collapsed. Hallwood Energy and Hallwood Petroleum requested the contractor to provide assurances that the mast on the other rig, and any mast provided to replace the collapsed mast, were safe and met the requirements of the contracts. When the contractor refused to provide assurances, Hallwood Energy and Hallwood Petroleum notified the contractor that the contracts were terminated and on September 6, 2006, filed Hallwood Petroleum, LLC and Hallwood Energy, L.P. v. Eagle Drilling, LLC and Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC, in the 348th District Court of Tarrant County, Texas to recover approximately $1,688,000 previously deposited with the contractor under the contracts. Since then, Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC and its parent filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in In re Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations LLC, Case No. 07-30426-H4-11, Jointly Administered Under Case No. 07-30424-H4-11, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas. Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC filed an adversary action on June 11, 2007 against Hallwood Energy and Hallwood Petroleum in the bankruptcy proceeding to recover unspecified damages, but purportedly in excess of $10,000,000. Eagle Domestic alleges breach of the drilling contracts and tortuous interference and business disparagement by Hallwood Energy in connection with drilling contracts Eagle Domestic had with Quicksilver Resources, Inc. Eagle Drilling, LLC has filed a related lawsuit against Hallwood Energy and Hallwood Petroleum in Oklahoma state court alleging damages of over $1 million in connection with unpaid invoices, unpaid downtime and other damages caused as a result of the mast collapsing. Hallwood Energy is currently unable to determine the impact that this litigation may have on its results of operations or its financial position.
