PART I

Item 1. Business

Unless context indicates otherwise, the term “Company" as used herein means Champion Parts, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

Products

The Company remanufactures and sells replacement fuel system components (carburetors and diesel fuel injection components) and air conditioning compressors for substantially all makes and models of domestic and foreign automobiles, trucks and marine applications. It also remanufactures and sells replacement constant velocity drive assemblies, electrical and mechanical products for certain passenger car, agricultural, marine and heavy-duty truck original equipment applications. The Company is reporting one operating business segment in the same format as reviewed by the Company's senior management.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, the Company's net sales of parts for automobiles (including light duty trucks) accounted for 80%, 86% and 83%, respectively, of the Company's total net sales; while sales of parts for heavy duty trucks, farm equipment and marine applications accounted for 20%, 14% and 17%, respectively, of total net sales.

The Company's largest product line is remanufactured carburetors, which accounted for 45% of 2005 net sales compared to 55% in 2004. The Company's main distribution channel is through large retailers who accounted for 90% of net carburetor sales in 2005 and 87% in 2004. The balance of the carburetor sales was to original equipment aftermarket customers and traditional warehouse distributors.

Marketing and Distribution

The Company's products are marketed throughout the continental United States and, in a limited way, in Canada and other countries. The Company sells carburetors to aftermarket retail chains that distribute products through their stores. In addition, the Company sells its products for resale through their dealers. The Company also sells carburetors, air conditioning compressors, electrical and mechanical products to automotive and marine warehouse distributors, which in turn sell to jobber stores and through them to service stations, automobile and marine repair shops and individual motorists.

Of the Company's net sales in the year ended December 31, 2005, approximately 42% were to retailers; approximately 30% were to manufacturers of automobiles, trucks and farm equipment and heavy duty fleet specialists; and approximately 28% were to automotive warehouse distributors, marine distributors and other customers.

The Company exhibits its products at trade shows. The Company also publishes catalogs of its products, including a guide with information as to the various vehicle models for which the Company's products may be used and a pictorial product identification guide to assist customers in the return of used units. The Company's sales representatives and sales agents call on customers and prospective customers to familiarize them with the Company's products, and the applications of its products.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, the four largest customers of the Company accounted for approximately 72% of net sales (Advance Auto, AutoZone, Honda America and John Deere). In 2004, the same customers of the Company accounted for approximately 74% of net sales, and in 2003, they accounted for approximately 77% of net sales. No other customers accounted for more than 10% of net sales in any of the three years.

The Company has various methods available to its customers to place orders into the Company's order entry system. The Company also utilizes direct Electronic Data Interchange with its largest customers.

The Company's business is slightly seasonal in nature, primarily as a result of the impact of weather conditions and the agricultural cycle on the demand for certain automotive and agricultural replacement parts. Historically, the Company's sales and profits are generally the highest in the first and second quarters, and then declining through the summer months.

Materials

In its remanufacturing operations, the Company obtains and utilizes used units, commonly known as "cores". A majority of the units remanufactured by the Company are acquired from customers as trade-ins, generally referred to as "core returns", which are encouraged by the Company in the sale of remanufactured units. The remainder of the core requirements is filled by purchasing cores on the open market.

The price of a finished product is usually comprised of a separately invoiced amount for the core included in the product ("core value") and an amount for remanufacturing. Upon receipt of a core return, credit is given to the customer for the then current core value of the part returned. The Company limits core returns to units included in its sales catalogs and in rebuildable condition, and credit for cores is allowed only against purchases by the customer of similar remanufactured products within a specified time period. The dollar volume of the core sales further limits a customer's total allowable credit for core trade-ins. The Company also permits warranty and stock adjustment returns (generally referred to as "product returns") pursuant to established policies. The Company's product return policies are consistent with industry practice, whereby remanufactu rers accept product returns from current customers regardless of whether the remanufacturer actually sold the product. The Company has no obligation to accept product returns from customers that no longer purchase units from the Company.

Patents, Trademarks, Etc.

The Company has no material patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises or concessions.

Backlog

The Company did not have a significant order backlog at December 31, 2005 and 2004.

Competition

The remanufactured automotive parts industry is highly competitive as the Company competes with a number of other companies, including certain original equipment manufacturers that sell remanufactured automotive parts. The Company competes with several large regional remanufacturers and with remanufacturers that are franchised by certain original equipment manufacturers to remanufacture their products for regional distribution. The Company also competes with numerous remanufacturers that serve local areas. In addition, sales of remanufactured parts compete with sales of similar new replacement parts. Manufacturers of kits used by mechanics to rebuild carburetors may also be deemed to be competitors of the Company.

The Company competes in a number of ways, including price, quality, product performance, prompt order fill, service and warranty policy. The Company believes its technical expertise in product lines it sells has been an important factor in enabling the Company to compete effectively.

Engineering

Product engineers support each of the Company’s main product lines. Engineers participate in product planning, product line structuring, cataloging and engineering of the Company's products and in developing manufacturing processes. The primary activities of the product engineers include improving the quality of existing products, formulating specifications and procedures for remanufactured products for use on makes and models of vehicles for which they were originally designed, converting cores for use amongst different makes and models and developing specifications, supplies and procedures for remanufacturing newly introduced products.

The engineers also design and build new tools, machines and testing equipment for use in all the Company's plants and develop specifications for certain components manufactured by the Company for use in its remanufacturing operations. Additionally, the engineer’s design and test new methods of reassembling components and cleaning parts and cores. The Company believes such activities improve the Company's ability to serve the needs of its customers.

Quality Assurance personnel conduct periodic quality audits of the Company's plants under its quality improvement program to test product quality and compliance with specifications.

Environmental Matters

The Company is subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations incidental to its business. The Company continues to modify, on an ongoing basis, processes that may have an environmental impact. Although management believes that the current level of environmental reserves are adequate to satisfy the future compliance with the environmental laws, the ultimate outcome of its environmental matters and potential insurance settlements are undeterminable. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that these reserves will be adequate. See Item 3, "Legal Proceedings - Environmental Matters" for additional discussion.

Employees

As of December 31, 2005, the Company employed 328 people including the corporate headquarters, plant and warehouse facilities.

There are no collective bargaining agreements in place at any of the Company’s present facilities. The Company considers its employee relations to be satisfactory.

Risk Factors

We may selectively pursue strategic opportunities like acquisitions or joint ventures, but we may not be able to successfully do so or realize the intended benefits of such transactions.

We continually evaluate potential acquisitions and joint ventures. There can be no assurance that suitable acquisition candidates may be identified and acquired in the future, that the financing or necessary consents for any such acquisitions will be available on satisfactory terms or that we will be able to accomplish our strategic objectives in making any such acquisition. We will encounter various risks if we acquire other companies, including the possible inability to integrate successfully an acquired business into our operations and unanticipated problems or liabilities, whether or not known at the time of acquisition. We could incur additional indebtedness in connection with our acquisition strategy and increase our leverage.

Our pension plans are currently underfunded/have been historically underfunded and we may have to make cash payments to the plans, reducing the cash available for liquidity.

We sponsor defined benefit pension plans covering certain active and retired employees in the United States under collective bargaining agreements [that are underfunded/have been historically underfunded] and may require future cash payments. Additionally, if the performance of the assets in our pension plans does not meet our expectations, or if other actuarial assumptions are modified, our required contributions may be higher than we expect. If our cash flow from operations is insufficient to fund our pension liability, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures, seek additional capital or seek to restructure or refinance our indebtedness.

During 2005, we made contributions, including employee contributions and benefit payments made directly by the Company, of $417,000 to the defined benefit plans. The underfunded status at 12/31/05 was $3,257,000. Our pension expense was $245,000 and $222,000 for 2005 and 2004, respectively. For 2006 we expect pension expense to be $767,000.

We are dependent on certain key customers, and the loss of one or more customers could have a material adverse effect on our business.

A substantial portion of our business results from sales to key customers. In 2005, our four largest customers in aggregate accounted for 72% of net sales. If one or several of these key customers were to reduce their orders substantially or terminate purchases, we would suffer a decline in revenue and profits, and those declines could be material and adverse.

We are highly dependent on certain key personnel.

We are highly dependent on the services of Jerry A. Bragiel, our Chief Executive Officer and acting Chief Financial Officer. Were we to lose the services of Mr. Bragiel, we would face a significant risk of declining revenue and/or operating income.

Our debt agreements contain restrictions that limit our flexibility in operating our business.

Our credit facility and other debt agreements contain a number of significant covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to:

incur additional indebtedness or issue redeemable preferred stock;

pay dividends and repurchase our capital stock;

make certain investments;

transfer or sell assets;

incur liens;

engage in mergers; and

make capital expenditures.

In addition, under the credit facility, we are required to satisfy specified financial tests. Our ability to comply with those provisions may be affected by events beyond our control, and we may not be able to meet those tests.

Increasing costs for or reduced availability of components and raw materials may adversely affect our profitability.

The principal raw materials we purchase include cores, components and other raw materials. Raw materials comprise a large component of our costs, representing approximately 26% of our total costs during the year ended December 31, 2005. A significant increase in the price of these items could materially increase our operating costs and materially and adversely affect our profit margins. For example, we have experienced significant price increases in raw material as a result of petroleum prices and limited competition for specialized components. It is generally difficult to pass through these increased costs to our customers in the form of price increases.

We could be adversely affected if we are unable to continue to compete successfully in the highly competitive automotive parts industry.

The automotive parts industry is highly competitive. We face numerous competitors in each of the product lines we serve. In general, there are three or more significant competitors for most of the products offered by our company and numerous smaller competitors. We also face increased competition for certain of our products from suppliers producing in lower-cost countries such as Mexico. We may not be able to continue to compete favorably and increased competition in our markets may have a material adverse effect on our business.

We may incur material losses and costs as a result of product liability and warranty and recall claims that may be brought against us.

We may be exposed to product liability and warranty claims in the event that our products actually or allegedly fail to perform as expected or the use of our products results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury and/or property damage. Accordingly, we could experience material warranty or product liability losses in the future and incur significant costs to defend these claims.

In addition, if any of our products are, or are alleged to be, defective, we may be required to participate in a recall of that product if the defect or the alleged defect relates to automotive safety. Our costs associated with providing product warranties could be material. Product liability, warranty, and recall costs may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

We are subject to a broad range of environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

We are subject to a broad range of federal, state, and local environmental and occupational safety and health laws and regulations, including those governing emissions to air, discharges to water, noise and odor emissions; the generation, handling, storage, transportation, treatment, and disposal of waste materials; the cleanup of contaminated properties; and human health and safety. We may incur substantial costs associated with hazardous substance contamination or exposure, including cleanup costs, fines, and civil or criminal sanctions, third party property or natural resource damage, or personal injury claims, or costs to upgrade or replace existing equipment, as a result of violations of or liabilities under environmental laws or non-compliance with environmental permits required at our locations. In addition, many of our current and former facilities are located on properties with long histories of industrial or commer cial operations and some of these properties have been subject to certain environmental investigations and remediation activities.

Because some environmental laws (such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act) can impose liability for the entire cost of cleanup upon any of the current or former owners or operators, retroactively and regardless of fault, we could become liable for investigating or remediating contamination at these or other properties (including offsite locations). We may not always be in complete compliance with all applicable requirements of environmental law or regulation, and we may incur material costs or liabilities in connection with such requirements. In addition, new environmental requirements or changes to existing requirements, or in their enforcement, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. We have made and will continue to make expenditures to comply with environmental requirements. While our costs to defend and settle claims ar ising under environmental laws in the past have not been material, such costs may be material in the future. For more information about our environmental compliance and potential environmental liabilities, see ``Item 1. Business - Environmental Matters.''

We are dependent on a mature product line whose volume continues to shrink.

Approximately 45% of our net sales for the 2005 fiscal year involves the sale of remanufactured carburetors. Sales have and will continue to decline for two reasons. First, the availability of acceptable carburetor cores continues to shrink due to age or damage to used carburetors. Secondly, the number of vehicles using carburetors continues to decline since the last domestic carbureted production vehicle was manufactured in 1988. Management is pursuing other new products and new markets for existing products; however, there is no assurance that new product lines or new markets will offset the continual carburetor sales erosion.

The success of our business also requires that we retain other qualified management personnel.

Our success is also dependent upon our ability to hire and retain additional qualified management, marketing, technical, financial and other personnel, including a chief financial officer. Competition for qualified personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to hire or retain additional qualified personnel. Any inability to attract and retain qualified management and other personnel would have a material adverse effect on us.

Directors and officers indemnification.

Our by-laws require us to indemnify any of our directors, officers, employees or agents to the full extent permitted by Illinois law. This may reduce the likelihood of shareholders instituting derivative litigation against directors and officers and may discourage or deter shareholders from suing our directors, officers, employees and agents for breaches of their duty of care, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our shareholders .

The price of our common shares has been, and may continue to be, volatile.

The market price of our common shares has fluctuated, and it is likely that the price of our common shares will fluctuate in the future. Since January 1, 2004, the sale price for our common shares, as reported by OTC Market Report published by the National Quotations Bureau, has fluctuated from a low of $0.85 to a high of $1.40 per share. The market price of our common shares could be impacted by a variety of factors, including:

matters related to our financial condition;

litigation affecting us or our products; and

general market conditions in our industry.

In addition, the stock market continues to experience price and volume fluctuations. These broad market fluctuations may negatively affect the market price of our common stock.

We have the discretion to issue additional shares of preferred shares with rights and preferences superior to those granted to holders of our common shares.

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue up to _________ shares of preferred shares, from time to time, in one or more series. Our board of directors is authorized, without further approval of our shareholders, to fix the dividend rights and terms, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption rights and terms, liquidation preferences, and any other rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions applicable to each new series of preferred shares. The issuance of such shares could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of common shares and, under certain circumstances, make it more difficult for a third party to gain control of us, discourage bids for our common stock at a premium, or otherwise adversely affect the market price of our common shares.

Item 2. Properties

The Company's corporate headquarters occupies office space at the Hope Division facility, 2005 West Avenue B, Hope, Arkansas. This facility houses the Company's corporate office functions, including executive, administration, finance and data processing. This facility is subject to a mortgage securing a loan of $900,000. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Debt.”

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to each of the Company's remanufacturing, warehousing and service facilities other than the corporate headquarters:

	Warehouse Area	Manufacturing Area

The Company's facilities currently operating are well maintained and are in good condition and repair.

A substantial portion of the machinery and equipment has been designed by the Company for its particular purposes and, in many instances, has been built by it.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

1. Beech Creek, Pennsylvania Facility Soil and Groundwater Contamination

In May 1991, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection ("PADEP") notified the Company that there was evidence of trichloroethylene and trichloroethane in the soil, and possibly the groundwater under the Beech Creek facility. Further, PADEP was concerned that the contamination had migrated off site. PADEP demanded that the Company conduct an investigation to determine the source and extent of the contamination, and perform any required cleanup.

The Company retained a qualified environmental consultant to prepare a site investigation plan. In June of 1992, PADEP approved the investigation plan. The plan, which included extensive soil testing and groundwater monitoring, was completed in 1995.

Cleanup commenced in 1995 at the Beech Creek plant. Cleanup activities consist of the venting of volatile organic gases from soil, and the pumping and treating of groundwater. The maintenance and operation of the system has been approximately $26,000 per year. In November 1998, the Company submitted a plan to PADEP to monitor groundwater and to stop operation of the remediation system under Pennsylvania's "Act Two." PADEP approved the plan. In January 2001, PADEP indicated that a minimum of eight quarterly rounds of sampling would be needed before an Act Two liability release could be considered by PADEP.

In June 2004, the Company entered into a consent order agreement with PADEP and the purchaser of the Beech Creek property, whereby the Company agreed to the remediation of the property under Pennsylvania’s Act 2 Program. A $200,000 escrow account was established at the closing of the sale of the property to cover cost of remediation.

The Company also has demanded indemnity from its insurance carriers regarding this matter. One of its carriers settled with the Company. The Company plans to vigorously pursue all remaining applicable coverage.

2. Spectron, Maryland Superfund Proceeding

On September 20, 1995, the USEPA notified the Company (along with several hundred other companies) of potential liability for response actions at the Spectron Superfund Site. The USEPA letter asks the Company and the other PRPs to negotiate with USEPA for their performance of a remedial investigation/feasibility study at the Spectron Site.

In August 2002, the Company received ade minimis settlement offer from the USEPA for approximately $154,000. The Company did not accept the settlement offer.

The Company has demanded defense and indemnity from its insurance carriers for any liability at the Spectron Site, and one of the carriers has settled with the Company. The Company plans to vigorously pursue all remaining applicable coverage, if necessary. Further, the Company believes that its former solvent supplier and waste solvent transporter are responsible for a share of any liability the Company incurs for the Spectron Site cleanup. The Company plans to vigorously pursue the transporter for this claim.

3. Double Eagle Superfund Proceeding

In January 2003, the Company received a "Notice of Liability" letter from the former owner and PRP at the Double Eagle Refinery Superfund Site (DER Site). The former owner is liable for remediation costs under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). According to DER Site records, the Company sent approximately 46,000 gallons of waste oil to the DER Site from 1985 through 1988 and, as such, also faces potential PRP liability for DER Site remediation costs. The Company has been informed that 4,500 PRPs have been identified at the DER Site accounting for 8.5 million gallons of waste. Manyof these PRPs apparently are small companies which sent relatively small quantities of waste to the DER Site, but approximately 100 PRPs have been identified who sent more than 10,000 gallons each. The USEPA has threatened the former own er and several other PRPs with whom USEPA has a tolling agreement with a $21-22 million cost recovery action concerning the USEPA's remediation of soil and groundwater contamination of the DER Site. (The USEPA is barred from pursuing the Company, and many other PRPs, by the applicable statute of limitations.) In response to the threatened cost recovery action, the former owner sent Notice of Liability letters to approximately 100 PRPs and hosted a February 25, 2003 meeting asking the PRPs to form a PRP Group to negotiate with the USEPA and allocate liability. The stated intent, in the absence of the formation of such a group, is to pursue, when appropriate, a private party contribution action against the PRPs. To date, no PRP Group has been formed and private party contribution action has not been initiated. The Company's liability at the DER Site, if any, will likely be based on an as yet undetermined volume allocation.

The Company has put its insurance carriers on notice of this potential claim. The primary carrier has denied coverage but the Company plans to vigorously pursue the carrier for coverage.

4. Asbestos Litigation

In 2004 and certain prior years, the Company was one of numerous defendants named in suits for personal injuries caused by exposure to products containing asbestos. The Company put its insurance carriers on notice and its attorneys have filed answers denying the allegations in the complaints. The Company’s insurance carriers have agreed to defend the Company under a reservation of rights.

While it is not possible to predict the course these cases may take in the future, only one case remains open, less than four percent of the cases that were filed.

Summary

From time to time, the Company may be named in lawsuits during the normal course of its business. Management intends to vigorously defend any lawsuits that may arise. In the opinion of Management, the environmental legal matters now pending will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company.

The Company has available established reserves of $100,000, as of December 31, 2005, for potential environmental and other legal liabilities that it believes to be adequate. However, there can be no assurance that the reserves will be adequate to cover actual costs incurred or that the Company will not incur additional environmental or other legal liabilities in the future.

Selected Financial Data - Notes

Note 1: At the end of May 2004, the Company closed its warehouse distribution location in suburban Toronto, Ontario, Canada. A continual decline in sales revenues and profitability over the past several years did not warrant keeping the operation open.

Note 2:

In 2002, the Company incurred expenses totaling $582,000 for inventory and equipment relocation, severance and other restructuring costs, which could not be accrued in 2001, as they did not qualify as “exit costs”. All restructuring expenditures were completed in 2002.

Included in the 2001 operating costs is a one time charge of $154,000 to establish a restructuring reserve for the expenses associated with the shut-down of the Beech Creek, Pennsylvania, facility. It was determined in the second quarter of 2002 that the estimated restructuring charge was higher than needed, and consequently, a reversal of $127,000 was recorded in May 2002.

Note 3:

For this schedule, the current maturities of long-term debt are included in long-term debt obligations in order to reflect comparable numbers with all periods presented.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial

Condition and Results of Operations

Management Overview

Net sales for 2005 of $21,651,000 were 8.3% higher than 2004 reflecting stronger sales of constant velocity axles, heavy duty and agricultural products, and air conditioning products. Costs of products sold in 2005 were also higher versus last year by $2,037,000, or 12.3%, more than proportional with the net sales increase. Operating expenses were $79,000, or 3.4%, higher than the 2004 level. The increase was less than the percentage increase in sales. Operating income was $589,000, a $463,000 decline versus $1,052,000 from 2004, primarily as a result of the increased cost of products sold. Interest expense for the year decreased $24,000 over 2004, as a result of a lower revolver balance. The Company’s net income for 2005 was $37,000, a decrease of $678,000, compared to $715,000 reported in 2004. The decline in net income principally reflects the higher costs of products sold. Partially mitigating th ese increased costs were lower administrative expenses.

On August 10, 2004, the Company entered into a three-year credit facility with PNC Bank, National Association, replacing the Congress Financial Corporation credit facility. Maximum credit available under the new PNC facility is $14,000,000, including available letter of credit accommodations of $1,000,000. The interest rate on the revolving debt facility was lender prime plus 1/4 % or LIBOR plus 2%, and for letters of credit, the rate is 3.25% per annum on the daily outstanding balance. On March 18, 2005, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit, Loan and Security Agreement. The amendment set forth the terms for temporary modification of the revolving interest rate to 1.25% above bank prime through April 12, 2005; the terms for temporary over-formula advances resulting from a change in the Lender’s interpretation of the formula for calculating eligible receivables; added a definition of collateral monitoring fees; and redefined the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant from a quarterly basis to a rolling twelve month basis.

Also on August 10, 2004, the Company entered into a commercial property loan on the Hope, Arkansas property with Elk Horn Bank and Trust Company acting as lead bank for a group of five lending institutions. The loan with Elk Horn is for $900,000, with seven-year amortization and an interest rate of New York prime plus 2% adjusted quarterly.

Management believes that the Company will be able to finance its working capital needs in the current year and the foreseeable future through the use of borrowings and cash flows generated from operations.

Results of Operations

2005 Compared to 2004

Net sales for the year ending December 31, 2005 were $21,651,000 versus net sales of $19,998,000 in 2004. The $1,653,000, or 8.3%, increase in net sales reflects stronger sales of constant velocity axles, heavy duty and agricultural products, and air conditioning products. Partially offsetting these increases were lower sales of carburetors. Total product and core returns, which are accounted for as reductions to gross sales, were 27.0% and 23.7% of gross sales for 2005 and 2004, respectively. The higher percentage for the year of 2005 reflects the impact of product return credits issued declining less than the decreased in gross sales of carburetors.

Carburetor net sales were 45.2% and 54.6% of total net sales, respectively, for the year of 2005 and 2004, respectively. Even though new vehicles sold in the United States and Canada are no longer equipped with carburetors, the Company continues to sell replacement units for older vehicles that predominantly use carburetors. Carburetor net sales declined moderately in 2005. The Company expects that the trend in carburetor sales will continue to be a steady decline in future periods. In addition, margins on carburetors may be negatively impacted in the future as customers accelerate product returns during periods of declining demand.

Cost of products sold were $18,625,000, or 86%, of net sales for 2005 as compared to $16,588,000, or 83%, for 2004. The $2,037,000, or 12.3% increase over 2004 is partially attributed to the net sales increase. Costs of products sold were also impacted by significant increases in the price of materials.

Selling, distribution and administrative expenses for 2005 were $2,437,000 compared to $2,358,000 in 2004. Distribution spending was slightly higher than 2004 reflecting higher sales. Overall Operating expenses were proportionately lower compared to the increase in sales.

Operating income for the year was $589,000 compared to $1,052,000 in 2004, a $463,000, or 44.0% decline. The operating income decline is attributed to significantly higher material costs.

Interest expense of $582,000 for the year was lower by $24,000 compared to 2004, reflecting a lower revolver balance. This decrease was partially offset by higher interest rates.

Non-operating income was $113,000 compared to $424,000 in 2004 Two non-reoccurring items in 2004 accounted for the difference. The Company met job expansion incentives under the City of Hope, Arkansas note agreement, whereby the city forgave the $250,000 note. During 2004, the Company also received $151,000 in rebates from the State of Arkansas for meeting job expansion incentives under the State’s create rebate program.

Net income was $37,000 versus $715,000 in 2004, a decrease of $678,000. As discussed earlier, significantly higher costs of products sold accounted for a part of the decrease in net income over 2004.

2004 Compared to 2003

Net sales for the year ending December 31, 2004 were $19,998,000 versus net sales of $24,038,000 in 2003. The $4,040,000, or 16.8%, decrease in net sales reflected the continued market decline of carburetor net sales, lower seasonal demand for air conditioning products, and a large air conditioning customer losing one of it’s primary customers. Partially offsetting these declines were slightly higher sales in the traditional markets of heavy duty and agricultural product lines. Total product and core returns, which are accounted for as reductions to gross sales, were 23.7% and 20.3% of gross sales for 2004 and 2003, respectively. The higher percentage for 2004 reflects the impact of product return credits issued declining less than the decrease in gross sales.

Carburetor net sales were 54.6% and 46.5% of total net sales, respectively, for the year of 2004 and 2003, respectively. Even though new vehicles sold in the United States and Canada are no longer equipped with carburetors, the Company continues to sell replacement units for older vehicles that predominantly use carburetors. Although carburetor net sales represented a larger share of the total net sales for the year, carburetor net sales declined slightly in 2004 compared to 2003. The Company expects that the trend in carburetor sales will continue to be a steady decline in future periods. In addition, carburetor margins may be negatively impacted in the future as customers accelerate product returns during periods of declining demand.

Cost of products sold were $16,588,000, or 82.9%, of net sales for 2004 as compared to $19,813,000, or 82.4%, for 2003. The $3,225,000, or 16.3%, decrease over 2003 was primarily attributed to the net sales decrease.

Selling, distribution and administrative expenses for 2004 were $2,358,000 compared to $2,699,000 in 2003. Administrative spending was significantly lower than 2003 reflecting the reduction of operating costs (taxes and insurance) for the Pennsylvania facility that was sold on June 28, 2003, combined with lower professional fees and payroll processing costs.

Operating income for the year was $1,052,000 compared to $1,526,000 in 2003, a $474,000, or 31.1% decline. The operating income decline was attributable to significantly lower net sales.

Interest expense of $606,000 for the year increased $138,000 over 2003, reflecting a two-percentage point interest rate increase that resulted from extending our expired loan facility until refinancing was completed on August 10, 2003, and higher revolver balances during the last quarter of 2004.

Non-operating income was $424,000 compared to $109,000 in 2003. At the end of the first quarter of 2004, the Company met job expansion incentives under the City of Hope, Arkansas note agreement, whereby the city forgave the $250,000 note. During 2004, the Company also received $151,000 in rebates from the State of Arkansas for meeting job expansion incentives under the State’s create rebate program. These two items more than accounted for the $315,000 increase in non-operating income over 2003.

Net income was $715,000 versus $1,130,000 in 2003, a decrease of $415,000, or 36.7%. As discussed above, significantly lower net sales accounted for the decrease in net income over 2003. Partially mitigating this decrease was the increase in non-operating income reflecting the City of Hope note write-off and, State of Arkansas rebates and lower administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity Overview

Working Capital

Net working capital at December 31, 2005 was $6,997,000 compared to $10,994,000 at December 31, 2004. The current ratio at December 31, 2005 was 1.5 versus 1.8 at December 31, 2004.The decrease in working capital primarily reflects lower trade accounts receivables and a reduction in inventories.

Net trade accounts receivable at December 31, 2005 were $8,462,000, a decrease of $1,948,000 versus the year-end 2004 balance of $10,410,000. The decrease in the Company's accounts receivable balance at year-end reflects improved collections.

Net inventories of $11,820,000 at December 31, 2005 were $890,000 lower compared to the year-end 2004 balance of $12,710,000. The decrease in net inventory reflects decreases in finished goods and work-in-process balances. The change in inventory levels is due to a concerted effort to reduce on-hand inventory balances.

Accounts payable at December 31, 2005 were $7,803,000 compared to a balance at year-end 2004 of $8,001,000. The $198,000 decrease in accounts payable is primarily due to reductions in purchases.

Accrued expenses of $5,853,000 were $1,020,000 greater than the fiscal year-end 2004 balance of $4,833,000, principally reflecting customer return credit accruals.

Debt

On August 10, 2004, the Company entered into a commercial property loan on its Hope, Arkansas properties with Elk Horn Bank and Trust Company acting as lead bank for a group of five lending institutions. The loan with Elk Horn is for $900,000, with seven-year amortization and an interest rate of New York prime plus 2% adjusted quarterly.

On March 18, 2005, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit, Loan and Security Agreement dated August 10, 2004 with PNC Bank, National Association. The Amendment No. 1 set forth the terms for temporary modification of the revolving interest rate to 1.25% above bank prime, the terms for temporary over-formula advances resulting from a change in the Lender’s interpretation of the formula for calculating eligible receivables, added a definition of collateral monitoring fees and redefined of the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant from a quarterly basis to a rolling twelve month basis.

At December 31, 2005, the balance outstanding on the Company’s revolver loan facility with PNC Bank, National Association was $6,193,000 and letter of credit accommodations were $40,000. Also at December 31, 2005, the balance outstanding on the Company’s commercial mortgage loan with Elk Horn Bank was $762,000. The total of the loan balances was $6,955,000, which compares to a total loan balance at December 31, 2004 of $11,061,000 and letter of credit accommodations of $40,000. At December 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with the amended fixed charge coverage ratio covenant.

Future Outlook

The additional revenue from the sales of air conditioning products has partially mitigated the declining carburetor product line sales during the past three years. Management is pursuing other new products and new markets for existing products. Management’s strategy includes internal new product development as well as acquisition opportunities.

The Company's cash flow generated from operations together with borrowings are expected to provide sufficient working capital to meet our needs over the next fiscal year and beyond.

Factors Which May Affect Future Results

This annual report contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the statements under "Future Outlook" and to the following:

The competitive environment has caused and is continuing to cause changes in the distribution channels between volume retailers and traditional warehouse/distributors. The Company has diversified its customer base and currently serves all major aftermarket segments, including large volume automotive retailers, original equipment manufacturers of automotive equipment and automotive warehouse distributors. The decline in carburetor product sales over the longer term could impact future results. The Company expects the growth in air conditioning product sales to partially offset this impact. There is no assurance that the sales increases in air conditioning products will exceed the decreases in carburetor sales or the contribution of carburetor sales to net income.

The Company’s six largest customers accounted for a total of 83% of the Company’s net sales in the year ending December 31, 2005, with the four largest customers aggregating 72% of the total. For the same period in 2004, the Company’s six largest customers accounted for a total of 84% of the Company’s net sales, with the four largest customers comprising 74% of the total. The loss of a large customer could have a materially adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

While the Company has established reserves for potential environmental liabilities that it believes to be adequate, there can be no assurance that the reserves will be adequate to cover actual costs incurred or that the Company will not incur additional environmental liabilities in the future. See “Legal Proceedings” for additional information.

Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those set forth in forward-looking statements.

Contractual Obligations

The following table provides a summary of our contractual obligations at December 31, 2005.

	Payments due by period (in thousands)
Contractual Obligations		Total	Less than 1 year	1 - 3 years	3 - 5 years	More than 5 years
Long-term debt (1)		$ 8,769	$ 110	$ 8,769	$ -0-	$ -0-
Operating leases (2)		995	269	726	-0-	-0-
Pension plan funding (3)		126	126	-0-	-0-	-0-
Total		$ 14,063	$ 457	$ 12,760	$ -0-	$ -0-

Notes to Contractual Obligations:

(1) The nature of our long-term debt obligations is described more fully in “Note 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.”

(2) The operating lease obligations are attributable to the leasing of facilities and equipment.

(3) The pension plan funding was determined by the Company's actuary using the expected return on plan assets, the relative weighting of the plan assets, and the historical performance of the plan assets and other economic indicators of future performance. Based on the uncertainty of the economic indicators, future period obligations have not been estimated at this time.

Off Balance Sheet Transactions

As part of its ongoing business, the Company does not participate in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities ("SPE's"), or SPE's which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As of December 31, 2005, the Company is not involved in any unconsolidated SPE transactions.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company's financial statements reflect the selection and application of accounting policies that require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. Management believes that the following points are some of the more critical judgment areas in the application of accounting policies that currently affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related contingent liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates for propriety, including those related to revenues, accounts receivable and inventory reserves, income taxes, and contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its res erve estimates on historical experience, current market and operating trends, and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under current operating circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The Company recognizes sales when products are shipped. Net sales reflect deductions for cores returned for credit and other customary returns and allowances. Such deductions and returns and allowances are recorded currently based upon continuing customer relationships and other criteria. The Company's customers are encouraged to trade-in rebuildable cores for products that are included in the Company's current product line.

Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of “temporary differences” by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. At December 31, 2005, the Company’s deferred tax asset consisted principally of net inventory reserves and net operating loss carryforwards. The Company’s deferred tax asset has been reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent such benefits are not expected to be fully utilized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment.” SFAS No. 123, as revised, requires recognition of the cost of employee services provided in exchange for stock options and similar equity instruments based on the fair value of the instrument at the date of grant. Statement 123, as originally issued, is effective until the provisions of Statement 123(R) are fully adopted. Statement 123(R) is effective beginning in the first quarter of its fiscal 2006. The Company will adopt this guidance as of January 1, 2006 and begin recognizing compensation expense related to stock options should any be issued.

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs (“SFAS No. 151”). 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 those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of “so abnormal.” In addition, this Statement requires that allocation of fixed production overhead to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of the statement to have a material effect on its financial statements.

Item 7a. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company has a credit facility, which bears interest at various rates that are based on the bank prime rate. Interest on $6,955,000, or 78.3%, of the Company's debt is variable based on the lender’s prime rate. Consequently, a general increase of 1% in the lender’s prime rate would result in additional interest cost of approximately $69,550 on an annual basis if the same debt level and structure were to be maintained.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors of

Champion Parts, Inc.

Hope, Arkansas

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Champion Parts, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flow for the years then ended. We have also audited the accompanying Schedule II, “Valuation and Qualifying Accounts.” These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and schedule are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and schedule. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and schedules. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As described in Note 9, 72% of the Company’s net sales in the year ended December 31, 2005 are concentrated in four customers. A reduction in the level of net sales to or the loss of one or more of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Champion Parts, Inc. and Subsidiaries at December 31, 2005 and 2004, the results of their operations and their cash flow for years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Also, in our opinion, the 2005 and 2004 schedules present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors of

Champion Parts, Inc.

Hope, Arkansas

We have audited the consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows of Champion Parts, Inc. and Subsidiaries (“the Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2003. We have also audited the accompanying Schedule II, “Valuation and Qualifying Accounts” for 2003. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the 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 and schedule are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and schedule. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and schedules. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As described in Note 9, 77% of the Company’s net sales in the year ended December 31, 2003 are concentrated in four customers. A reduction in the level of net sales to or the loss of one or more of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the results of operations and cash flows of Champion Parts, Inc. and Subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 (to the 2003 financial statements) to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s amended credit facility expires on May 8, 2004. This factor raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Presently, the Company is seeking to replace the credit facility. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 1 (to the 2003 financial statements). The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Also, in our opinion, the 2003 schedule presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

CHAMPION PARTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED

DECEMBER 31, 2005, DECEMBER 31, 2004, AND DECEMBER 31, 2003

Note 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Consolidation Policy - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Champion Parts, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments -The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, receivables, and accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying values of cash, receivables, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of their short maturities.

The carrying value of the term loans and demand note payable approximates fair value since the interest rate associated with the debt approximates the current market interest rate.

Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivables are customer obligations due under trade terms. The Company sells remanufactured products to retailers, original equipment manufacturers and warehouse distributors. The Company performs continuing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally does not require collateral.

Senior management reviews accounts receivable on a periodic basis to determine if any receivables will potentially be uncollectible. The Company includes any accounts receivable balances that are determined to be uncollectible, along with a general reserve, in its overall allowance for doubtful accounts. Based on the information available, the Company believes its allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2005 is adequate. However, actual write-offs could exceed the recorded allowance.

From time to time, the Company's customers may be in a net credit balance position due to the timing of sales and core returns. At December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 customers in a net credit balance position totaled approximately $3,411,865 and $4,200,000, respectively, and are reported as a component of accounts payable. The Company periodically reviews the aging of unused credits and from time to time may reduce this balance on account of unclaimed credits or when otherwise appropriate.

Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Inventory consists of material, labor and overhead costs.

Property, Plant and Equipment - Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The assets are being depreciated over their estimated useful lives, principally by the straight-line method. The range of useful lives of the various classes of assets is 10-40 years for buildings and 4-10 years for machinery and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the leases or their useful lives, whichever is shorter.

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations; major expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

Long-Lived Assets -The Company reviews the carrying values of its long-lived assets and identifiable intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Any long-lived assets held for disposal are reported at the lower of their carrying amounts or fair value less cost to sell. As of December 31, 2005, there has been no impairment of long-lived assets.

Assets Held for Sale - Represents the land, buildings and building improvements for the Beech Creek, Pennsylvania facility that ceased operation on March 15, 2002. Sale of these assets was consummated on June 28, 2004.

Deferred Charges - Costs of issuing long-term debt are deferred and amortized over the terms of the related issues.

Business Segments - The Company previously adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” Management views the entire corporation as one business segment.

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes sales when products are shipped. Net sales reflect deductions for cores returned for credit and other customary returns and allowances. Such deductions and returns and allowances are recorded currently based upon continuing customer relationships and other criteria. The Company's customers are encouraged to trade-in rebuildable cores for product included in the Company's current product line.

Credits for cores are allowed only against purchases of similar remanufactured products. The dollar volume of purchases further limits total available credits. Product and core returns, reflected as reductions in net sales, were $10,551,000 (2005), $10,900,000 (2004) and $11,500,000 (2003).

Net Income per common share – The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No.128 “Earnings Per Share”, which requires disclosure of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. “Diluted” EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the period.

	2005	2004	2003
Average common shares outstanding	3,655,266	3,655,266	3,655,266
Dilutive effect of: Stock options	80,794	101,186	49,199
Dilutive Common Shares Outstanding	3,736,060	3,756,452	3,704,465
Anti-Dilutive Common Shares Outstanding	167,000	177,000	128,000

Estimates - The accompanying financial statements include estimated amounts and disclosures based on management’s assumptions about future events. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Stock-based Compensation -At December 31, 2005, the Company has a stock-based compensation plan, which is described in Note 5. The Company applies the recognition and intrinsic value measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related Interpretations in accounting for the plan.

Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs - The Company follows EITF No. 00-10, “Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs.” The Company classifies shipping and handling fees as part of net revenue and the related cost as operating expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 shipping and handling fees were $291,000, $325,000 and $401,000, respectively.

On March 18, 2005, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit, Loan and Security Agreement dated August 10, 2004 with PNC Bank, National Association. The Amendment No. 1 set forth the terms for temporary modification of the revolving interest rate to 1.25% above bank prime through April 12, 2005, the terms for temporary over-formula advances resulting from a change in the Lender’s interpreting the formula for calculating Eligible Receivables, definition of collateral monitoring fees and redefinition of the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant from a quarterly basis to a rolling twelve month basis.

The gross value of the transaction was $1.5 million and the net proceeds were used to reduce property term debt and revolver debt in July. The net difference between sales proceeds received, assets held for sale and other costs of approximately $118,000 was recorded against the asset restructuring reserve provided for this transaction.

Pension Plan Assets

The Company's pension plan weighted-average asset allocations at December 31, 2005, and December 31, 2004, by asset category are as follows:

Cash or cash equivalents	1.00%	1.00%
Total	100.00%	100.00%

Asset management objectives include maintaining an adequate level of diversification to reduce interest rate and market risk and provide liquidity to meet present and future benefit payment requirements. Plan assets are reviewed for performance and rebalanced to the target asset allocation objective periodically as needed.

Plan Contributions

The Company expects to contribute $767,000 to its four pension plans in 2006.

Estimated Future Benefit Payments

The following benefit payments, which reflect expected future service, as appropriate, are expected to be paid:

Total rental expense charged to operations was $204,000 (2005), $267,000 (2004) and

$220,000 (2003).

Minimum commitments under all noncancelable-operating leases at December 31, 2005 for the following five years are as follows:

Year	Amount
2006	$ 248,000
2007	247,000

Note 9. SALES TO MAJOR CUSTOMERS

In 2005, net sales to the Company's four largest customers was approximately 72% of total net sales. In 2004, net sales to the Company's four largest customers was approximately 74% of total net sales. At December 31, 2005, accounts receivable balances of the Company's four largest customers were approximately 40%, 32%, 11% and 0% of total gross receivables. At December 31, 2004 accounts receivable balances of the Company's four largest customers were approximately 41%, 35%, 11% and 0% of total gross receivables.

The Company's largest product line is remanufactured carburetors, which accounted for 45% of 2005 net sales compared to 55% in 2004. The Company's main distribution channel is through two large retailers who accounted for 90% of net carburetor sales in 2005 and 87% in 2004. The balance of the carburetor sales was to original equipment aftermarket customers and traditional warehouse distributors.

A reduction in the level of sales to or the loss of one or more of these customers would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Note 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

A. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The Company is subject to various Federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations incidental to its business. The Company continues to modify, on an ongoing basis, processes that may have an environmental impact.

The Company has been named, along with a number of other companies, as a Potentially Responsible Party in several Federal and state sites where the Company had operations or where byproducts from the Company's manufacturing processes were disposed. Two sites currently have active litigation, while the others have been settled or are dormant. The Company has undertaken voluntary actions at its closed plant site ranging from periodic testing to modest amounts of soil and water remediation and storage tank removal.

The Company has $100,000 in reserves for anticipated future costs of pending environmental matters at December 31, 2005. Also, a $200,000 escrow account was established at the closing of the sale the Beech Creek, Pennsylvania property to cover future EPA issues. Future costs include the Company's estimated allocated share of remedial investigation/feasibility studies and clean up and disposal costs. The Company's ultimate costs are subject to further development of existing studies and possible readjustment of the Company's pro rata share of total costs. The Company believes that it has adequate insurance to cover these costs.

While it is not possible to predict the course these cases may take in the future, only one case remains open, less than four percent of the cases that were filed.

B. OTHER

From time to time the Company may be named in lawsuits during the normal course of its business. Management intends to defend any lawsuits that may arise. In the opinion of Management, legal matters now pending will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company.
