INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Board of Directors
Sieger Engineering, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Sieger Engineering, Inc. as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the related statements of income and changes in retained earnings and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 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 audits.
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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes 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 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 Sieger Engineering, Inc. as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
DECEMBER 31, 2005, 2004 AND 2003 |
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business -Sieger Engineering, Inc. (the Company) is based in South San Francisco, California. The Company is a provider of turnkey precision components and assemblies to OEMs in the semiconductor capital equipment, medical devices, electronics and instrumentation industries. In addition, it is also a manufacturer of precision tools, machine parts, and specialty pieces.
Revenue Recognition & Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts - Revenue from the sale of products is recognized when the products are shipped in accordance with contract terms. Accounts receivable is stated at an amount that management believes to be collectible. Historically, bad debts have been within management’s expectations. The allowance as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 is $79,460 and $60,000, respectively.
Inventories -Inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost (which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. The Company evaluates the valuation of all inventories, including raw materials, work-in-process, finished goods and spare parts on a periodic basis. Obsolete inventory or inventory in excess of management’s estimated usage is written-down to its estimated market value less costs to sell, if less than its cost. Inherent in the estimates of market value are management’s estimates related to economic trends, future demand for products, and technological obsolescence of the Company’s products.
Property and Equipment -Property and equipment are recorded at cost and include improvements that significantly add to productive capacity or extend useful life. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to seven years. Repair and maintenance costs that do not increase the useful lives and/or enhance the value of the assets are charged to operations as incurred. Leasehold improvements are stated at cost and amortized over the lesser of the terms of the respective leases or the assets’ useful lives.
Noninterference Agreement -A noninterference agreement with a former stockholder is being amortized over the life of the agreement which is eight years. The agreement expired December 31, 2005 (Note 5).
Income Taxes -The Company has elected under the Internal Revenue Code to be an S Corporation. In lieu of corporate income taxes, the stockholders of an S Corporation are taxed on their proportionate share of the Company’s taxable income. Therefore, no provision or liability for current or deferred federal income taxes is included in these financial statements. The California Revenue and Taxation Code requires a franchise tax equal to the greater of $800 or 1.5% of taxable income. Deferred state income taxes are immaterial. Distributions are made to the stockholders periodically, to cover their portion of the income taxes on the Company's earnings.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
DECEMBER 31, 2005, 2004 AND 2003 |
Cash and Cash Equivalents -The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Stock-Based Compensation -Stock-based compensation is accounted for using the intrinsic value method in accordance with the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, as permitted by SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.The Company has determined that the proforma effect of accounting for the options issued under SFAS No. 123 on net income would not be material.
Shipping and Handling -Shipping and handling charges billed to customers are included in sales. The costs of shipping to customers are included in shipping expenses.
Use of Estimates- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk -The Company, at times, has cash in a banking institution in excess of the amount insured by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Company places the funds with financial institutions evaluated by management as highly credit worthy.
The Company has a concentration of credit risk with respect to its trade receivables. The Company provides unsecured and interest-free credit, in the normal course of business, to its customers, and receivables are considered past due based on payment terms with customers. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and monitors the receivable balances on a regular basis. An allowance for uncollectible accounts is recorded based on management's evaluation of outstanding receivables. Receivables are written off when all methods of collection have been exhausted and have been within the range of management's expectations. Management believes its credit acceptance, billing and collection policies are adequate to minimize potential credit risk.
The Company has a concentration of credit risk with respect to the volume of business transacted with certain customers. Three customers accounted for approximately 82%, 78% and 79% of the Company’s sales for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. These three customers represent approximately 75% and 60% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

DECEMBER 31, 2005, 2004 AND 2003 |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards -In November 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs - an amendment of ARB No. 43.SFAS No. 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing,” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). This Statement requires that these costs be recognized as current-period charges and requires that production overhead be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 151 in 2006, to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 123R,Share-Based Payment (Revised 2004)(“SFAS 123R”). SFAS No. 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock Based Compensation,and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. This Statement establishes standards for accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. The Company grants stock options to their employees and discloses the pro-forma effect of compensation expense for these stock options. Under SFAS 123R, the Company will be required to record this compensation expense in the Company’s results of operations. SFAS 123R is effective for the beginning of the first fiscal reporting period that begins January 1, 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 123R in 2006 to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
In December 2003, FASB issued FIN 46(R),Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51, which replaces FASB Interpretation No. 46,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (VIE). This Interpretation addresses consolidation by business enterprises of Variable Interest Entities. It defines a VIE as a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for the business purpose that either: a) the equity investment is not sufficient to allow the entity to finance its activities without additional financial support; b) the equity investors lack one or more of the following: 1. the ability to make decisions; 2. the obligation to absorb expected losses of the entity; or 3. the right to receive any returns of the entity; and c) the equity investors have voting rights disproportionate to their economic interest, and the activities of the entity are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. This interpretation requires that existing unconsolidated VIE’s be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries. The Company does not have any VIE entities and accordingly the implementation of the Interpretation did not result in an impact on its financial statements.

Note 3 – Line of Credit
The Company had a $5,000,000 line of credit with a bank which expired on June 1, 2004 which provided for maximum borrowings of 80% of eligible accounts receivables plus advances against inventory. Interest was payable monthly, at the lender’s base rate. The line was secured by the Company’s assets. The bank agreement contained various financial covenants which, among other things, required the Company to maintain certain profitability, working capital, and net worth ratios, and limited the Company’s maximum yearly fixed asset additions. During 2004, the line was paid in full and the Company obtained a new line of credit with another bank expiring May 1, 2006.
At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had a $15,000,000 line of credit with a bank which expires on May 1, 2006 and provides for maximum borrowings of 80% of eligible accounts receivables, 40% of eligible inventory and 30% of eligible materials work-in-process not to exceed $5,000,000. Interest is payable monthly, at .5% below the lender’s reference rate (6.75% at December 31, 2005). The line is secured by the Company’s assets. The stockholders’ debt is also subordinated to the line. The amount of the line available for borrowing at December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $9,600,365 and $6,613,440, respectively.
The bank agreement contains various financial covenants which, among other things, require the Company to maintain certain profitability, working capital, and net worth ratios, and limits the Company’s maximum yearly fixed asset additions.
