INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Shareholders and Board of Directors
Orbital Gas Systems Limited
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Orbital Gas Systems Limited as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the related profit and loss accounts, statements of total recognized gains and losses, note of historical cost profits and losses, reconciliation of net cash flow to movement in net funds, reconciliation of movements in shareholders’ funds, and statements of cash flows for the years 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 audit.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit 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 audits provide 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 Orbital Gas Systems Limited as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United Kingdom.
Generally accepted accounting principles in the United Kingdom vary in certain significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Application of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) would have affected the results of operations of the company for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 to the extent summarized in Note 22 to the financial statements.

Orbital Gas Systems Limited
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AUTHORIZATION OF NON-STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements of Orbital Gas Systems Limited (‘‘Orbital’’ or ‘‘the company’’) were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors and the balance sheet was signed on the board’s behalf by a director. Orbital is a private limited company incorporated and domiciled in England and Wales.
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The principal activity of the company during the year was that of the supply and installation of gas control systems.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties, and in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting standards.
The financial statements present information about the company as an individual undertaking and not about its group, as the company has taken advantage of the exemption provided by section 402 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare consolidated financial statements as the directors consider that the company’s subsidiary be excluded from consolidation on the grounds of it being immaterial for purpose of true and fair view. The subsidiary company is a dormant company.
The financial statements are presented in Sterling.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
The directors are constantly reviewing resource competence and availability and believe that the company has adequate current resources to continue in operational existence for at least the next twelve months. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.
TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost or valuation net of depreciation and any provision for impairment.
Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets except for freehold land at rates calculated to write each asset down to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life, as follows:-
Freehold property | - 2% on cost |
Improvements to freehold property | - 10% on cost |
Plant and machinery | - 20% on cost |
Fixtures and fittings | - 10% – 33% on cost |
Computer equipment | - 33% on cost |
Motor vehicles | - 25% on cost |
Freehold properties are revalued in accordance with FRS 15 with a full valuation carried by professionally qualified Chartered Surveyors on an existing use open market value basis, in accordance with the Statement of Assets Valuation Practice No. 4 and the Guidance Notes of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors every five years and an interim valuation is carried out in year three.
IMPAIRMENTS
Fixed assets are reviewed for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable or as otherwise required by relevant accounting standards.
Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts, being the higher of net realisable value and value-in-use, are recognised as impairments. Impairments of revalued assets, except those caused by a clear consumption of economic benefit, are recognised in the statement of total recognised gains and losses until the carrying amount reaches depreciated historic cost. All other impairment losses are recognised in the profit and loss account.
Orbital Gas Systems Limited
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
STOCKS AND WORK IN PROGRESS
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. In determining the cost of raw materials, consumables and goods purchased for resale, the weighted average purchase price is used.
For work in progress and finished goods, cost is taken as production cost, which includes an appropriate proportion of attributable overheads.
LONG TERM CONTRACTS
Long term contracts are assessed on a contract by contract basis and reflected in the profit and loss account by recording turnover and related costs as contract activity progresses. Turnover is ascertained in a manner appropriate to the stage of completion of the contract, and credit taken for profit earned to date when the outcome of the contract can be assessed with reasonable certainty. In respect of contracts where the degree of work completed is certified by either a third party or the customer then turnover is recognised based on these work certificates. In respect of contracts where work certificates are not obtained then turnover is recognised based on a percentage of completion against the contract value. Percentage completion is measured on the basis of costs incurred to the year end against the estimated total costs of the contract. The amount by which turnover exceeds payments on account is classified as ‘‘amounts recoverable on contracts’’ and included in debtors; to the extent that payments on account exceed relevant turnover and long term contract balances, the excess is included as a creditor. The amount of long term contracts, at cost net of amounts transferred to cost of sales, less provision for foreseeable losses and payments on account not matched with turnover, is included within stocks.
DEFERRED TAXATION
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date where transactions or events that result in an obligation to pay more tax in the future or a right to pay less tax in the future have occurred at the balance sheet date. Timing differences are differences between the company’s taxable profits and its results as stated in the financial statements that arise from the inclusion of gains and losses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements.
Deferred tax is measured at the average tax rates that are expected to apply in the years in which timing differences are expected to reverse, based on tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is measured on a non-discounted basis.
FOREIGN CURRENCIES
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of ransaction. All differences are taken to the profit and loss account.
LEASED ASSETS AND OBLIGATIONS
Where assets are financed by leasing agreements that give rights approximating to ownership (‘‘finance leases’’), the assets are treated as if they had been purchased outright. The amount capitalised is the present value of the minimum lease payments payable during the lease term. The corresponding leasing commitments are shown as obligations to the lessor.
Lease payments are treated as consisting of capital and interest elements, and the interest is charged to the profit and loss account in proportion to the remaining balance outstanding.
All other leases are ‘‘operating leases’’ and the annual rentals are charged to profit and loss on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Orbital Gas Systems Limited
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
RETIREMENT BENEFITS
The company operates a defined contribution scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund. The amount charged to the profit and loss account in respect of pension costs is the contributions payable in the year. Differences between contributions payable in the year and contributions actually paid are shown as either accruals or prepayments in the balance sheet.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development is written off to the profit and loss account as it is incurred.
INVESTMENTS
Fixed asset investments are stated at cost. Provision is made for any impairment in the value of fixed asset investments.
TURNOVER
Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for sale of goods and/or services in the ordinary nature of the business. Turnover is shown net of Value Added Tax, of goods sold and services provided to external customers and, in the case of long term contracts, credit is taken appropriate to the stage of completion when the outcome of the contract can be assessed with reasonable certainty. In respect of contracts where the degree of work completed is certified by either a third party or the customer then turnover is recognised based on these work certificates. In respect of contracts where work certificates are not obtained then turnover is recognised based on a percentage of completion against the contract value. Percentage completion is measured on the basis of costs incurred to the year end against the estimated total costs of the contract.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash for the purpose of the cash flow statement comprises cash in hand and deposits repayable on demand less overdrafts repayable on demand.

U.K. GAAP allows for the revaluation of fixed assets. The Company has over time recorded a surplus balance in the revaluation reserve account. U.S. GAAP does not allow for the revaluation of fixed assets and therefore this balance has been reversed.
U.K. GAAP does not contain provisions for the accrual for vacation or paid time off. U.S. GAAP requires that an employer accrue for employees compensation of future absences that have been earned and are payable.

Orbital Gas Systems Limited
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AUTHORIZATION OF NON-STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements of Orbital Gas Systems Limited (‘‘Orbital’’ or ‘‘the company’’) were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors and the balance sheet was signed on the board’s behalf by a director. Orbital is a private limited company incorporated and domiciled in England and Wales.
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The principal activity of the company during the year was that of the supply and installation of gas control systems.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties, and in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting standards.
The financial statements present information about the company as an individual undertaking and not about its group, as the company has taken advantage of the exemption provided by section 402 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare consolidated financial statements as the directors consider that the company’s subsidiary be excluded from consolidation on the grounds of it being immaterial for purpose of true and fair view. The subsidiary company is a dormant company.
The financial statements are presented in sterling.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
The unaudited interim financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2012.
The directors are constantly reviewing resource competence and availability and believe that the company has adequate current resources to continue in operational existence for the next twelve months. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the reviewed six months financial statements.
TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost or valuation net of depreciation and any provision for impairment.
Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets except for freehold land at rates calculated to write each asset down to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life, as follows:-
Freehold property | | - 2% on cost |
Improvements to freehold property | | - 10% on cost |
Plant and machinery | | - 20% on cost |
Fixtures and fittings | | - 10% – 33% on cost |
Computer equipment | | - 33% on cost |
Motor vehicles | | - 25% on cost |
Freehold properties are revalued in accordance with FRS 15 with a full valuation carried by professionally qualified Chartered Surveyors on an existing use open market value basis, in accordance with the Statement of Assets Valuation Practice No. 4 and the Guidance Notes of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors every five years and an interim valuation is carried out in year three.
IMPAIRMENTS
Fixed assets are reviewed for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable or as otherwise required by relevant accounting standards.
Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts, being the higher of net realisable value and value-in-use, are recognised as impairments. Impairments of revalued assets, except those caused by a clear consumption of economic benefit, are recognised in the statement of total recognised gains and losses until the carrying amount reaches depreciated historic cost. All other impairment losses are recognised in the profit and loss account.
Orbital Gas Systems Limited
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
STOCKS AND WORK IN PROGRESS
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. In determining the cost of raw materials, consumables and goods purchased for resale, the weighted average purchase price is used.
For work in progress and finished goods, cost is taken as production cost, which includes an appropriate proportion of attributable overheads.
LONG TERM CONTRACTS
Long term contracts are assessed on a contract by contract basis and reflected in the profit and loss account by recording turnover and related costs as contract activity progresses. Turnover is ascertained in a manner appropriate to the stage of completion of the contract, and credit taken for profit earned to date when the outcome of the contract can be assessed with reasonable certainty. In respect of contracts where the degree of work completed is certified by either a third party or the customer then turnover is recognised based on these work certificates. In respect of contracts where work certificates are not obtained then turnover is recognised based on a percentage of completion against the contract value. Percentage completion is measured on the basis of costs incurred to the year end against the estimated total costs of the contract. The amount by which turnover exceeds payments on account is classified as ‘‘amounts recoverable on contracts’’ and included in debtors; to the extent that payments on account exceed relevant turnover and long term contract balances, the excess is included as a creditor. The amount of long term contracts, at cost net of amounts transferred to cost of sales, less provision for foreseeable losses and payments on account not matched with turnover, is included within stocks.
DEFERRED TAXATION
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date where transactions or events that result in an obligation to pay more tax in the future or a right to pay less tax in the future have occurred at the balance sheet date. Timing differences are differences between the company’s taxable profits and its results as stated in the financial statements that arise from the inclusion of gains and losses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements.
Deferred tax is measured at the average tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in which timing differences are expected to reverse, based on tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is measured on a non-discounted basis.
FOREIGN CURRENCIES
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. All differences are taken to the profit and loss account.
LEASED ASSETS AND OBLIGATIONS
Where assets are financed by leasing agreements that give rights approximating to ownership (‘‘finance leases’’), the assets are treated as if they had been purchased outright. The amount capitalised is the present value of the minimum lease payments payable during the lease term. The corresponding leasing commitments are shown as obligations to the lessor.
Lease payments are treated as consisting of capital and interest elements, and the interest is charged to the profit and loss account in proportion to the remaining balance outstanding.
All other leases are ‘‘operating leases’’ and the rentals are charged to profit and loss on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Orbital Gas Systems Limited
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
RETIREMENT BENEFITS
The company operates a defined contribution scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund. The amount charged to the profit and loss account in respect of pension costs is the contributions payable in the period. Differences between contributions payable in the period and contributions actually paid are shown as either accruals or prepayments in the balance sheet.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development is written off to the profit and loss account as it is incurred.
INVESTMENTS
Fixed asset investments are stated at cost. Provision is made for any impairment in the value of fixed asset investments.
TURNOVER
Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for sale of goods and/or services in the ordinary nature of the business. Turnover is shown net of Value Added Tax, of goods sold and services provided to external customers and, in the case of long term contracts, credit is taken appropriate to the stage of completion when the outcome of the contract can be assessed with reasonable certainty. In respect of contracts where the degree of work completed is certified by either a third party or the customer then turnover is recognised based on these work certificates. In respect of contracts where work certificates are not obtained then turnover is recognised based on a percentage of completion against the contract value.
Percentage completion is measured on the basis of costs incurred to the year end against the estimated total costs of the contract.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash for the purpose of the cash flow statement comprises cash in hand and deposits repayable on demand less overdrafts repayable on demand.

U.K. GAAP allows for the revaluation of fixed assets. The Company has over time recorded a surplus balance in the revaluation reserve account. U.S. GAAP does not allow for the revaluation of fixed assets and therefore this balance has been reversed.
U.K. GAAP does not contain provisions for the accrual for vacation or paid time off. U.S. GAAP requires that an employer accrue for employees compensation of future absences that have been earned and are payable.
