Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholder of
Cimatron Technologies, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statements of operations, shareholder’s deficit, and cash flows of Cimatron Technologies, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the results of operations and cash flows of Cimatron Technologies, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Independent Auditor’s Report
to the Shareholder of Cimatron GmbH
We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of “Cimatron GmbH” (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2003 and the related statements of income, changes in shareholder’s equity and cash flows for the twelve months peroid then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our limited review as of December 31, 2003
We conducted our review in accordance with United States generally accepted standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the review to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. A review includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. A review also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our review provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cimatron GmbH as of December 31, 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

Without qualifying our opinion above, we draw attention to the company’s net equity position. The company is overindebted based on book values in the amount of € 1.410.478,00 (US-$ 1.782.209,49). To avoid filing for insolvency procedures the parent company expressed a letter of subordination in the amount of € 1.600.000. The parent company agreed that from their receivables as at December 31, 2003 a partial amount of € 1.600.000 shall rank behind all other creditors of Cimatron GmbH. Any portion of a claim so subordinated shall only be paid out of a surplus from future profits, a future liquidation surplus or, after overcoming the crisis, a net worth exceeding the other debts. However, the explanation provided show that it is not impossible that the business operations will be maintained in the longer term. As a consequence, the accounting principles applied are based on the assumption that the company will be able to continue as a going concern.
