REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors of
SatCon Technology Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of SatCon Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Company) (a Delaware corporation) as of September 30, 2002 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and comprehensive loss and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. The consolidated financial statements of SatCon Technology Corporation as of September 30, 2001 and for the two years then ended were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations. Those auditors expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements in their report dated December 4, 2001.

We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of SatCon Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries as of September 30, 2002 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note B to the financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $20,760,598 during the year ended September 30, 2002, and, as of that date, the Company used $15,339,425 in its operating activities. The Company is operating under a forbearance agreement with its primary lender in which, unless other defaults occur, the primary lender would not exercise its rights as a creditor under the loan agreement until January 15, 2003. The Company needs an infusion of equity capital and, in addition, needs to achieve quarterly revenues at levels it has not achieved in the recent past in order to reach an estimated breakeven cash run rate. These factors, among others, as discussed in Note B to the financial statements, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plan in regards to these matters are also described in Note B. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

As discussed above, the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2001 and 2000, and for the years then ended were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations. As described in Note C, these consolidated financial statements have been revised to include the transitional disclosures required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS No. 142) which was adopted by the Company as of October 1, 2001. Our audit procedures with respect to the disclosures in Note C for fiscal 2001 and 2000 included (i) agreeing the previously reported net loss attributable to common stockholders before cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles ("net loss") to the previously issued consolidated financial statements and the adjustments to reported net loss representing amortization expense (including any related tax effects) recognized in those periods related to goodwill that are no longer being amortized to the Company's underlying records obtained from management, and (ii) testing the

44

mathematical accuracy of the reconciliation of adjusted net loss to reported net loss, and the related loss per weighted average share amounts. In our opinion, the disclosures for fiscal 2001 and 2000 in Note C related to the transitional disclosures of SFAS No. 142 are appropriate. However, we were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the Company's consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2001 and 2000 other than with respect to such disclosures and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the Company's fiscal 2001 and 2000 consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

Provided below, pursuant to Rule 2-02(e) of Regulation S-X, is a copy of the accountants report issued by Arthur Andersen LLP, our former independent public accountants, in connection with the filing of our Annual Report of Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001.This audit report has not been reissued by Arthur Andersen in connection with the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002. Note that the previously issued Arthur Andersen report includes references to certain fiscal years which are not required to be presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended September 30, 2002. We are unable to obtain a reissued accountants report from Arthur Andersen, and we will be unable to obtain future accountants reports from Arthur Andersen, because Arthur Andersen has discontinued its auditing practice. This means that we will also be unable to obtain consents to incorporate any financial statements audited by Arthur Andersen into registration statements that we may file in the future or that we may have previously filed. Accordingly, investors will not be able to sue Arthur Andersen pursuant to Section 11(a)(4) of the Securities Act with respect to any such registration statements and, therefore, ultimate recovery on a successful claim may be limited. The ability of investors to recover from Arthur Andersen may also be limited as a result of Arthur Andersen's financial condition or other matters resulting from the various civil and criminal lawsuits against that firm.

SATCON TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization

SatCon Technology Corporation (the "Company" or "SatCon") was organized as a Massachusetts corporation in February 1985 and reincorporated in Delaware in 1992. SatCon is developing enabling technologies for the emerging critical power marketplace where power quality and uninterruptible power are important. SatCon designs, develops and manufactures high-efficiency high power electronics and a variety of standard and custom high-performance machines for specific applications. SatCon's critical power products convert, store and manage electricity for businesses and consumers, the U.S Government and military that require high-quality, uninterruptible power. SatCon is utilizing its engineering and manufacturing expertise to develop products that it believes will be integral components of distributed power generation and power quality systems. SatCon's specialty motors are typically designed and manufactured for unique customer requirements such as high power-to-size requirements or high efficiency.

SatCon has expanded its business and capabilities through the following acquisitions:

K&D Magmotor Corp.-a manufacturer of custom electric motors, acquired in January 1997.

Film Microelectronics, Inc. ("FMI")-a manufacturer of hybrid microelectronics, acquired in April 1997.

Inductive Components, Inc.-a value-added supplier of customized electric motors, acquired in January 1999.

Lighthouse Software, Inc.-a supplier of control software for machine tools, acquired in January 1999.

HyComp, Inc.-a manufacturer of electronic multi-chip modules, acquired in April 1999.

Ling Electronics, Inc.-a manufacturer of test equipment, power converters, amplifiers and converters, acquired in October 1999.

Inverpower Controls Ltd.-a manufacturer of power electronics modules and advanced high-speed digital controls, acquired in July 2001.

All of these acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. In addition, in November 1999, the Company acquired intellectual property, tooling and other assets from Northrop Grumman Corporation and in September 2002, the Company acquired certain intellectual property, equipment and other assets from Sipex Corporation. See Note R.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SatCon and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

B. REALIZATION OF ASSETS AND LIQUIDITY

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has sustained substantial

52

losses from operations in recent years. In addition, the Company has used, rather than provided, cash in its operations.

The Company needs an infusion of equity capital to sustain its operations. The Company anticipates that its existing cash and cash resources will enable it to fund its operations through only approximately January 15, 2003. As more fully discussed below, if Silicon Valley Bank, the Company's senior lender, decides to discontinue lending, which it has the right to do, or the Company is unable to raise additional equity by January 15, 2003, it will be forced to furlough or permanently lay off a significant portion of its work force which will have a material adverse impact. Under these circumstances, the Company may not be able to continue its operations. Further, without additional cash resources, the Company may not be able to keep all or significant portions of its operations going for a sufficient period of time to enable it to sell all or portions of its assets or operations at other than distressed sale prices.

The Company has incurred significant costs to develop its technologies and products. These costs have exceeded total revenue. As a result, the Company has incurred losses in each of the past five years. As of September 30, 2002, it had accumulated deficit of $85.2 million. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002, the Company incurred a loss of $20.8 million and a reduction in is cash from $20.9 million to $2.1 million.

However, even with a reduced cost structure, the Company needs to achieve levels of quarterly revenue, which it has failed to achieve in the past, in order to reach an estimated breakeven cash run rate. Assuming the Company can execute its current operating plan, it does not expect to achieve a breakeven cash run rate until the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003 at the earliest. As a result, because the Company had only $2.1 million in cash at the end of fiscal 2002, it will need significant borrowing capacity and additional capital, in the aggregate, in order to fund its current business plan for the next 12 months. It may also need additional future funds in order to fund unanticipated operating losses, to grow, to develop new or existing products and services and to respond to competitive pressures.

During December 2002, the Company became in default, as defined, of its Loan and Security Agreement, dated September 13, 2002 (the "Loan Agreement"). As of September 30, 2002, no amount was payable under the Loan Agreement. As of December 19, 2002, $885,527 was outstanding. On December 19, 2002, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement under which the Loan Agreement was extended until January 15, 2003, subject to certain terms and conditions, as defined.

In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet is dependent upon the continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its financing requirements, on a continuing basis, including raising permanent equity, to maintain present financing, and to succeed in its future operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

Management of the Company intends to take the following steps to revise its operating and financial requirements, which it believes are sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue its existence:

Close and fund an equity transaction with an institutional investor for $3 to $5 million the week of January 6, 2003 which will be subject to Company shareholder approval. In the event that the Company does not obtain the approval of its shareholders it would be required to redeem all or a portion of the investment in cash;

Work with Silicon Valley Bank (the "Bank") to amend its existing Loan Agreement before January 15, 2003; and

53

Hire an outside financial advisor in early January 2003 to assist in identifying non-core assets and monetizing them as soon as practical to provide additional liquidity.

However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in consummating the equity transaction with the institutional investor on schedule and the amount planned and amending its Loan Agreement with the Bank on schedule with acceptable terms. If both of these transactions are not completed with terms and the timetable envisioned, the Company will likely be forced to furlough or permanently lay off a significant portion of its workforce which will have a material adverse effect on its financial position and results of operations. Further, without additional cash resources, the Company, may not be able to keep all or significant portions of its operations going for a sufficient period of time to enable it to sell all or a portion of its assets or operations at other than distressed sale prices.

C. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101,Revenue Recognition. Product revenue is recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the fee is fixed or determinable, delivery of the product to the customer has occurred and the Company has determined that collection of the fee is probable. Title to the product generally passes upon shipment of the product, as the products are shipped FOB shipping point except for certain foreign shipments. If the product requires installation to be performed by the Company, all revenue related to the product is deferred and recognized upon the completion of the installation. If the product requires specific customer acceptance, revenue is deferred until customer acceptance occurs or the acceptance provisions lapse unless the Company can objectively and reliably demonstrate that the criteria specified in the acceptance provisions are satisfied. The Company provides for a warranty re serve at the time the product revenue is recognized.

The Company performs funded research and development and product development for commercial companies and government agencies under both cost reimbursement and fixed-price contracts. Product development revenue is included in product revenue. Cost reimbursement contracts provide for the reimbursement of allowable costs and, in some situations, the payment of a fee. These contracts may contain incentive clauses providing for increases or decreases in the fees depending on how costs compare with a budget. On fixed-price contracts, revenue is generally recognized on the percentage of completion method based upon the proportion of costs incurred to the total estimated costs for the contract. Revenue from reimbursement contracts is recognized as the services are performed. In each type of contract, the Company receives periodic progress payments or payments upon reaching interim milestones. All payments to the Company for work performed on contracts with agencies of the U.S. government are subject to audit and adjustment by the Defense Contract Audit Agency. Adjustments are recognized in the period made. When the current estimates of total contract revenue for commercial product development contracts indicate a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is recorded. Any losses incurred in performing funded research and development projects are recognized as research and development expense as incurred. As of September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company has accrued $150,000 and $75,000, respectively, for anticipated contract losses on commercial contracts. For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, revenue from commercial contracts, which represents other revenue, is included in funded research and development and other revenue and amounted to $203,254, $662,614 and $763,023, respectively.

Cost of product revenue includes cost of product revenue including material, labor and overhead. Costs incurred in connection with funded research and development and other revenue arrangements are included in research and development and other revenue expenses. For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, costs and expenses from commercial contracts, which represents

54

other revenue expenses, are included in funded research and development and other revenue expenses and amounted to $182,406, $484,982 and $397,527, respectively.

Deferred revenue consists of payments received from customers in advance of services performed, product shipped or installation completed.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits and highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when acquired. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value.

Marketable Securities

The Company accounts for marketable securities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115,Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. In accordance with SFAS No. 115, investments are classified as held to maturity, available for sale or trading.

Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments in marketable securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such determination at each balance sheet date. Debt securities for which the Company does not have the intent or ability to hold to maturity are classified as available for sale.

Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, based on quoted market prices, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in a separate component of stockholders' equity except for unrealized losses determined to be permanent in nature. Such unrealized losses are included in the determination of net income in the period in which management determines the decline to be permanent. The Company is not actively involved in the purchase and sale of investments classified as trading. At September 30, 2002, the Company had no investments that qualified as trading or held to maturity.

The amortized cost of debt securities classified as available for sale is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such amortization and interest are included in interest income. Realized gains and losses are included in other income or loss. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market and costs are determined based on the first-in, first-out method of accounting and include material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the asset's estimated useful life. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment are as follows:

	Estimated Lives
Computer equipment and software	3-5 years
Electronic laboratory and shop equipment	5 years
Mechanical laboratory and shop equipment	10 years
Sales and demonstration equipment	3-10 years
Furniture and fixtures	7-10 years
Leasehold improvements	Lesser of the life of the lease or the useful life of the improvement

55

When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related depreciation and amortization are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in other income.

Long-lived Assets

Effective October 1, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. This statement affects the Company's treatment of goodwill and other intangible assets. The statements require that goodwill existing at the date of adoption be reviewed for possible impairment and that impairment tests be periodically repeated, with impaired assets written down to fair value. Additionally, existing goodwill and intangible assets must be assessed and classified within the statement's criteria. Intangible assets with finite useful lives will continue to be amortized over those periods. Amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indeterminable lives will cease.

The Company completed the first step of the transitional goodwill impairment test during the three months ended March 30, 2002 based on the amount of goodwill as of the beginning of fiscal year 2002, as required by SFAS No. 142. The Company determined the fair value of each of the reporting units based on a discounted cash flow income approach. The income approach indicates the fair value of a business enterprise based on the discounted value of the cash flows that the business can be expected to generate in the future. This analysis is based upon projections prepared by the Company and data from sources of publicly available information available at the time of preparation. These projections were based on a strategic plans conducted by each business unit using financial projections for a 3 to 5 year time horizon and represented managements best estimate of future results. In making these projections, the Company considered the markets it was addressing, the competitive environment and its advantages. The re will usually be differences between estimated and actual results as events and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected, and those differences may be material. In addition, the Company performed a macro assessment of the overall likelihood that it would achieve the projected cash flows and performed sensitivity analysis using historical data as the basis for projected cash flows. Based on the results of the first step of the transitional goodwill impairment test, the Company determined that the fair value of each of the reporting units exceeded their carrying amounts and, therefore, no goodwill impairment existed as of October 1, 2001. As a result, the second step of the transitional goodwill impairment test was not required to be completed. The Company performed a goodwill impairment test as of the beginning of its fiscal fourth quarter 2002, as required by SFAS No. 142 on an annual basis. The Company again determined the fair value of each of the reporting units based on a discounted cash flow income approach consistent with the initial test. Based on the results of the first step of the annual goodwill impairment test, the Company determined that the fair value of each of the reporting units exceeded their carrying amounts and, therefore, no goodwill impairment existed as of the beginning of its fiscal fourth quarter 2002. As a result, the second step of the annual goodwill impairment test was not required to be completed. The Company will continue to perform a goodwill impairment test on an annual basis and on an interim basis, if certain conditions exist.

The Company did not record expense related to the amortization of goodwill during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002. The Company recorded expense related to the amortization of goodwill of $638,864 during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001. The Company has determined that all of its intangible assets have finite lives and, therefore, the Company has continued to amortize its intangible assets. The Company recorded expense related to the amortization of its intangible assets of $618,118 and $674,732 during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of the Company's foreign subsidiary is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the rates in effect at the balance sheet date, while stockholders' equity (deficit) is translated at historical rates. Statements of operations and cash flow amounts are translated at the average rate for the period. Translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Foreign currency gains and losses arising from transactions are reflected in the loss from operations and were not significant during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

Treasury Stock

The Company was authorized to repurchase up to 5% of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock through July 2000. Under the repurchase program, the Company purchased 44,500 shares of the Company's outstanding common stock at a cost of $249,704. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001, the Company retired the 44,500 shares purchased under the repurchase program.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, 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 the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes, which is the asset and liability method for accounting and reporting for income taxes. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using statutory rates. In addition, SFAS No. 109 requires a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

58

Stock-based Compensation

SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, requires the measurement of the fair value of stock options or warrants granted to employees to be included in the statement of operations or, alternatively, disclosed in the notes to consolidated financial statements. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation of employees under the intrinsic value method of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and has elected the disclosure-only alternative under SFAS No. 123. The Company records the fair value as determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model of stock options and warrants granted to non-employees in exchange for services in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 96-18,Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services, and is amortized ratably over the period the service is performed in the consolidate d statement of operations.

Net Loss per Basic and Diluted Common Share

The Company reports net loss per basic and diluted common share in accordance with SFAS No. 128,Earnings Per Share, which establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk principally consist of cash equivalents, marketable securities, trade accounts receivable, unbilled contract costs and amounts receivable from exercise of stock options.

The Company's trade accounts receivable and unbilled contract costs and fees are primarily from sales to U.S. government agencies and commercial customers. The Company does not require collateral and has not historically experienced significant credit losses related to receivables or unbilled contract costs and fees from individual customers or groups of customers in any particular industry or geographic area.

The Company deposits its cash and invests in short-term investments primarily through a regional commercial bank and an investment company. Credit exposure to any one entity is limited by Company policy.

Research and Development Costs

The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. Research and development and other revenue expenses include costs incurred in connection with both funded research and development and other revenue arrangements and unfunded research and development activities.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net loss, change in unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities, change in unrealized gains and losses on investment in Beacon Power and foreign currency translation adjustments.

59

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, unbilled contract costs and fees, warrants to purchase shares of common stock, accounts payable, debt instruments and contingent obligation to the common stock warrant holders. The estimated fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values at September 30, 2002 and 2001. The estimated fair values have been determined through information obtained from market sources and management estimates.

Accounting for Derivative Instruments

On October 1, 2000, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging activities. It requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure these instruments at fair value. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 133, the Company recorded an unrealized loss on its investment in derivatives, consisting of warrants to purchase Mechanical Technology Incorporated common stock in its results of operations as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle of $1,021,725 to reflect the impact of adopting this accounting standard on October 1, 2000.

In September 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF 00-19,Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock, which requires freestanding contracts that are settled in a company's own stock, including common stock warrants, to be designated as an equity instrument, asset or a liability. Under the provisions of EITF 00-19, a contract designated as an asset or a liability must be carried at fair value, with any changes in fair value recorded in the results of operations. A contract designated as an equity instrument must be included within equity, and no fair value adjustments are required. In accordance with EITF 00-19, the Company has determined that outstanding warrants as of September 30, 2001 to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock issued to Mechanical Technology Incorporated should be designated as a liability and warrants to purchase 605,050 shares of the Company's Common Stock are designated as an equity in strument. Effective June 30, 2001, all warrants designated as a liability must be recorded as a liability and therefore, the Company reclassified the warrants designated as a liability from equity to liabilities, which had a fair value on the issuance date of $1,505,421, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. At September 30, 2001, the outstanding warrants designated as a liability, as a result of the warrant holders having rights that rank higher than those of common stockholders, have been recorded at a fair value of $234,699 through a reduction of $1,270,722 in the fair value included in the results of operations of which $854,113 is included in cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles and $416,609 is included in net unrealized loss on warrants to purchase common stock. Effective December 28, 2001, the Company amended these warrants, removing the provisions providing the warrant holders with rights that rank higher than those of common stockholders. As a result of the amendment, these warrants meet the criteria of equity instruments in accordance with EITF 00-19 and, therefore, the Company reclassified the value of these warrants to equity from liabilities.

To summarize, during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001, the Company recorded a charge of $1,021,725 for the adoption of SFAS No. 133 offset by $854,113 for the adoption of EITF No. 00-19, for a net charge to cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles of $167,612.

Accounting for Beneficial Conversion Feature

In November 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF 00-27,Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments, which provides guidance on the calculation of a beneficial conversion feature on a convertible instrument as it relates to measuring the intrinsic value using the effective conversion price based on the proceeds allocated to convertible instruments. Based upon this

60

guidance, the Company has determined that the redeemable preferred stock issued in August 1999 and converted into the Company's Common Stock in March 2000 had a beneficial conversion feature of $1,940,798. Under the guidance of EITF 00-27, the Company was required to record the beneficial conversion feature of $1,940,798 as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle upon adoption during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001.

Reclassifications

Certain prior-year balances have been reclassified to conform to current-year presentations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets,which supersedes SFAS No. 121,Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of, and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB No. 30. SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently reviewing this statement to determine its effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In April, 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145,Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. SFAS No. 145 rescinds SFAS No. 4,Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and an amendment of that statement, SFAS No. 44,Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers, and SFAS No. 64,Extinguishment of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. This statement amends SFAS No. 13,Accounting for Leases, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions. This statement also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions and is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The Company is currently reviewing this statement to determine its effect on its consolidated financial statements.

61

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146,Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3,Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). This statement is effective for exit and disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company is currently reviewing this statement to determine its effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2001, the EITF issued Topic No. D-103 (Topic D-103) relating to the accounting for reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses. In accordance with Topic D-103, reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses incurred should be characterized as revenue in the statement of operations. The Company's arrangements have historically included reimbursement for expenses as part of the overall fee charged. As a result, the Company has historically accounted for these reimbursements as revenue and recorded the associated costs as either cost of product revenue or funded research and development and other revenue expenses. As a result, the Company's adoption of Topic D-103 had no impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

H. INVESTMENT IN BEACON POWER CORPORATION

During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2000 and substantially all of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001, the Company accounted for its investment in Beacon Power under the equity method of accounting. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, the Company recorded $5,065,034 and $899,493, respectively, of losses from Beacon Power, representing the Company's share of losses up to the extent of committed capital.

On November 17, 2000, Beacon Power listed its common stock on the NASDAQ National Market. In connection with the listing, the put right granted to the Class D preferred stockholders of Beacon Power was terminated and the contingent obligation to Class D preferred stockholders of Beacon Power was reclassified to additional paid-in capital.

On November 22, 2000, Beacon Power completed an initial public offering of its common stock and issued 8,000,000 shares of its common stock at $6.00 per share. Upon the closing of Beacon Power's initial public offering, each share of Beacon Power's class A, C, D, E and F preferred stock was converted into two shares of Beacon Power's common stock, or 29,359,530 shares of common stock, of which the Company received 9,691,440 shares of Beacon Power's common stock. In addition, upon the closing of Beacon Power's initial public offering, Beacon Power issued 873,794 shares of common stock in payment for consulting fees and accrued dividends on Beacon Power's class D and E preferred stock, of which the Company received 11,098 shares of Beacon Power's common stock. After these events, the Company owned approximately 25.0% of Beacon Power's outstanding voting stock. In accordance with SAB No. 51, the Company's investment in Beacon Power and additional paid-in capital was written up to reflect its beneficial inter est in the book value of the stockholders' equity of Beacon Power at November 22, 2000, which was $14,988,382, less losses previously recorded in connection with the put right obligation in the amount of $5,831,879 for a net gain of $9,156,503. On December 19, 2000, Beacon Power issued an additional 1,200,000 shares of its common stock at $6.00 per share to cover over-allotments. Upon the issuance of the additional 1,200,000 shares, the Company owned approximately 24.2% of Beacon Power's outstanding voting stock. The Company's investment in Beacon Power and additional paid-in capital was written up in accordance with SAB No. 51 to reflect its beneficial interest in the increase in book value of the stockholders' equity of Beacon Power at December 19, 2000, which was $1,622,721. On December 20, 2000, Beacon Power issued 985,507 shares of its common stock in connection with the cashless exercise of warrants to purchase shares of Beacon Power's common stock. Upon the issuance of the additional 985,507 shares, t he Company owned approximately 23.7% of Beacon Power's outstanding voting stock. On December 22, 2000, Beacon Power issued 997,369 shares of its common stock in connection with the cashless exercise of warrants to purchase shares of Beacon Power's common stock. Upon the issuance of the additional 997,369 shares, the Company owned approximately 23.1% of Beacon Power's outstanding voting stock.

After the write-up of its investment in Beacon Power, the Company continued to account for its investment in Beacon Power under the equity method of accounting and recorded its share of losses from Beacon Power on a one fiscal quarter trailing basis.

On September 28, 2001, the Company distributed 5,000,000 shares of Beacon Power common stock to its stockholders. Upon the distribution of the 5,000,000 shares, the Company recorded the distribution of the 5,000,000 shares as a reduction of additional paid-in-capital based on the book value per share prior to the distribution, or $0.59 per share. After the distribution, the Company owned approximately 11.0% of Beacon Power's outstanding voting stock. Additionally, the Company has determined that it does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of Beacon Power and, therefore, now accounts for its investment in Beacon Power using the fair value method as set forth in SFAS No. 115,Accounting for Certain Debt and Equity Securities. The Company is no longer required to record its share of any losses from Beacon Power and the investment is carried at fair value and designated as available for sale and any unrealized holding

64

gains or losses to be included in stockholders' equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) so long as any unrealized losses are deemed temporary in nature. If the decline in fair value is judged to be other than temporary, the cost basis shall be written down to fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the write-down shall be included in the statement of operations. The new cost basis shall not be changed for subsequent recoveries in fair value. Subsequent increases in the fair value shall be included in stockholders' equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss). Subsequent decreases in fair value, if not an other-than-temporary impairment, also shall be included in stockholders' equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss).

As of September 30, 2002, the quoted fair market value of Beacon Power's common stock held by the Company was $0.17 per share, or $800,005. The Company's historical cost basis in its investment in Beacon Power's common stock was approximately $0.59 per share, or $2,788,949, resulting in an unrealized loss of $1,988,944 as of September 30, 2002. The Company determined that of this $1,988,044, $1,400,000 represented an other than temporary decline based on the extent and length of time the stock has been below its cost basis as well as its assessment of the financial condition and near term prospects of Beacon Power. The Company recorded a charge of $1,400,000 in the statement of operations to realize this portion of the loss. This charge was measured based on the trading value of Beacon Power's common stock during the month of November and early December and was less than the gross unrealized loss due to subsequent recovery of Beacon Power's stock price, as well as the Company's ability and intent to hold the stock for a long enough period of time for it to recover to the new cost basis. After this write-down, the new cost basis of the Beacon Power common stock held by the Company is approximately $0.30 per share and the unrealized loss of the Beacon Power common stock held by the Company was $588,944 as of September 30, 2002.

The following summarizes the Company's investment in Beacon Power Corporation:

	As of September 30, 2002											As of September 30, 2001
	$					Per Share of Beacon Power Corporation Common Stock				$				Per Share of Beacon Power Corporation Common Stock
Carrying Value	$	800,005		$	0.17			$	7,152,983		$		1.52

Realized Loss	$	(1,400,000	)	$	(0.30		)	$	-		$		-

Additionally, the Company has a warrant to purchase 173,704 shares of Beacon Power's common stock that has an exercise price of $1.25 per share and expires in 2005. The Company accounts for this warrant in accordance with SFAS No. 133 and, therefore, records the warrant at its fair value. As of September 30, 2002 and 2001, the warrant to purchase Beacon Power common stock had a fair value of $14,365 and $201,436, respectively, and is included in warrants to purchase common stock on the accompanying balance sheets.

Beacon Power accounted for $226,159, $242,460 and $470,996 of the Company's total revenue for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. At September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company had $0 and $172,598, respectively, of accounts receivable and unbilled contract costs and fees from Beacon Power.

On March 1, 1999, the Company reached a definitive settlement arrangement with Albert R. Snider (the "Settlement Agreement"), the holder of a note payable that commenced on April 16, 1997, regarding a suit filed against Mr. Snider for breach of certain representations made by him, including statements of inventory balances in the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of April 3, 1997 between FMI and Mr. Snider relating to the purchase of the business of FMI and a counterclaim filed by Mr. Snider seeking, among other things, payments allegedly due from the Company under a promissory note.

Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the Company made a $100,000 cash payment to Mr. Snider on March 9, 1999 and the parties executed mutual general releases dismissing any and all claims between them. In addition, the Settlement Agreement provides a right of first refusal in favor of the Company with respect to certain shares of the Company's Common Stock, beneficially owned by Mr. Snider. Concurrently with the execution of the Settlement Agreement, the Company and Mr. Snider entered into a consulting agreement pursuant to which Mr. Snider would perform certain consulting, advisory and related services as the Company may reasonably request from time to time between October 1, 1999 and October 1, 2002. In exchange for these services, the Company issued 42,860 shares of its Common Stock to Mr. Snider, which were held by an escrow agent. The Company has recorded these shares held in escrow at market value and as a reduction to stockholders' equity as of September 30, 1999.

On April 26, 2000, the escrow agent, as authorized by the Company released the 42,860 shares of the Company's Common Stock that were held in escrow to Mr. Snider. The Company recorded these securities at fair value until they were released from escrow at a market price of $16.00 per share or $685,760. The Company determined that the value of these securities exceeded the net realizable value

66

of the underlying services to be received by $235,760. The Company has charged this excess amount to selling, general and administrative expenses during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000. The Company was amortizing the realizable asset of $450,000 over the three-year period of service through September 30, 2002. At September 30, 2001, the Company determined that the services provided under the consulting agreement will no longer be requested and has written off the unamortized asset of $150,000 to selling, general and administrative expenses during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001.

A valuation allowance against the recoverability of net deferred tax assets has been established because more likely than not the Company will not be able to utilize certain deferred tax assets in future years. The Company has offset certain deferred tax liabilities with deferred tax assets which are expected to generate offsetting deductions within the same periods. The recognition of a portion of the valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset related to the net unrealized loss on the available for sale securities will subsequently be applied directly to other comprehensive income

The provision for income taxes differs from the federal statutory rate due to the following:

At September 30, 2002, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $61,000,000 and $44,000,000 for federal and state income tax purposes, respectively. The federal net operating losses expire beginning September 30, 2007 through 2022. The state net operating losses will expire beginning September 30, 2003 through 2007. The use of these losses may be limited due to ownership change limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.

N. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Investment from Mechanical Technology Incorporated

On October 21, 1999, the Company received a $7,070,000 investment from Mechanical Technology Incorporated ("MTI"). In consideration for MTI's investment, MTI received 1,030,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at a discounted price of approximately $6.80 per share, and warrants to purchase an additional 100,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $8.80 per share and an expiration date four years from the date of issuance. MTI funded $2,570,000 of its investment in the Company on October 21, 1999 and received 370,800 of the 1,030,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock and a warrant to purchase 36,000 of the 100,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock. MTI made the remaining investment on January 31, 2000 of $4,500,000 and received the remaining 659,200 shares of the Company's Common Stock and a warrant to purchase the remaining 64,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock. The Company incurred approximately $95,000 of legal, accounting, consultation and filing fees in con nection with this transaction. The Company has valued the warrants issued to MTI on October 21, 1999 and January 31, 2000, at $231,912 and $1,273,509, respectively, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

In addition, the Company received a warrant to purchase 108,000 shares of MTI's common stock on October 21, 1999 and a warrant to purchase 192,000 shares of MTI's common stock on January 31, 2000 at exercise prices of $12.56 per share, as adjusted to reflect a 3:1 stock split in April 2000, and expiration dates four years from the date of issuance. The Company has valued the warrant received on October 21, 1999 and January 31, 2000 at $568,553 and $2,926,885, respectively, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and has recorded the warrants as an asset and additional paid in capital. In accordance with EITF No. 96-11,Accounting for Forward Contracts and Purchased Options to Acquire Securities Covered by FASB Statement No. 115, options that are entered into to purchase securities that will be accounted for under SFAS No. 115 should, at inception, be designated as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, or trading and accounted for in a manner consistent with the accounting prescribed by SFAS N o. 115 for that category of securities. The Company has designated that the securities to be purchased under the warrant agreement will be available-for-sale securities and, therefore, the Company has marked to market the fair value of the warrants at each reporting period date and has recorded any unrealized gains and losses as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss included in stockholders' equity. At September 30, 2000, the warrants have an unrealized loss of $1,021,725, which is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss included in stockholders' equity.

70

On October 1, 2000, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging activities. It requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure these instruments at fair value. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 133, the Company recorded the $1,024,725 unrealized loss on its investment in warrants to purchase MTI's common stock in its results of operations as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle to reflect the impact of adopting this accounting standard on October 1, 2000. As of September 30, 2002 and 2001, the warrants to purchase MTI's common stock have a fair value of $1,623 and $375,479, respectively, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded a unrealized loss in its statement of operations on the warrants to purcha se MTI's common stock of $373,856 and $2,098,234, respectively.

At September 30, 2002, 4,452,344 of the 5,250,000 stock options available for grant under the Plans have been granted.

The Plans are subject to the following provisions:

The aggregate fair market value (determined as of the date the option is granted) of the Company's Common Stock that any employee may purchase in any calendar year pursuant to the exercise of qualified options may not exceed $100,000. No person who owns, directly or indirectly, at the time of the granting of a qualified option to him or her, more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company shall be eligible to receive any qualified options under the Plans unless the option price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the Company's Common Stock subject to the option, determined on the date of grant. Non-qualified options are not subject to this limitation.

Qualified options are issued only to employees of the Company, while non-qualified options may be issued to non-employee directors, consultants and others, as well as to employees of the Company. Options granted under the Plans may not be granted with an exercise price less than 100% of fair value of the Company's Common Stock, as determined by the Board of Directors on the grant date.

Options under the Plans must be granted within 10 years from the effective date of the Plan. Qualified options granted under the Plans cannot be exercised more than 10 years from the date of grant, except that qualified options issued to 10% or greater stockholders are limited to five-year terms. All options granted under the Plans provide for the payment of the Company's exercise price in cash, or by delivery to the Company of shares of the Company's Common Stock already owned by the optionee having fair market value equal to the exercise price of the options being exercised, or by a combination of such methods of payment. Generally, the options vest and become exercisable ratably over a four-year period.

The Plans contain antidilutive provisions authorizing appropriate adjustments in certain circumstances. Shares of the Company's Common Stock subject to options that expire without being exercised or that are canceled as a result of the cessation of employment are available for further grants.

On October 21, 1999, in connection with an investment by MTI, the Company issued a warrant to purchase up to 36,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $8.80 per share. On November 26, 2001, pursuant to the antidilutive provisions of this warrant, the Company adjusted the exercise price to $7.84 per share to reflect the effect of the distribution of the 5,000,000 shares of Beacon Power's common stock to its stockholders.

Stock-based Compensation

During 2001, the Company accelerated the vesting schedule of a stock option award in connection with an employee termination and recorded a charge of $111,250 to selling, general and administrative expenses, based on the intrinsic value of the stock options.

Had compensation cost for the Company's stock-based compensation been determined based on fair value at the grant dates as calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss and loss per share for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000 would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

	2002												2001											2000
	Net Loss Attributable To Common Stockholders					Loss Per Common Share				Net Loss Attributable To Common Stockholders							Loss Per Common Share				Net Loss Attributable To Common Stockholders				Loss Per Common Share
As reported	$	(20,760,598	)	$	(1.25		)	$	(24,264,423		)	$		(1.65	)	$		(13,047,033	)	$		(1.03	)

The effects of applying SFAS No. 123 in this pro forma disclosure are not indicative of future amounts. SFAS No. 123 does not apply to awards prior to 1996 and additional awards in future years are anticipated.

The fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: an expected life of seven years, expected volatility ranging from 86.0% to 114.4%, no dividends, and risk-free interest rate ranging from 4.00% to 4.50% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002; an expected life of seven years, expected volatility ranging from 96.6% to 125.0%, no dividends, and risk-free interest rate ranging from 4.50% to 5.87% for the

74

fiscal year ended September 30, 2001; and an expected life of seven years, expected volatility ranging from 80.1% to 112.3%, no dividends, and risk-free interest rate of 6.17% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000. The weighted average price of the fair value of options granted for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000 are $3.62, $9.64 and $14.05, respectively.

In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25." This interpretation clarifies the application of APB Opinion No. 25, including (a) the definition of employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequences of various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. The Interpretation is effective July 1, 2000, and the effects of applying the Interpretation are recognized on a prospective basis. The adoption of this Interpretation did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

Common Stock Offering

On October 30, 2000, the Company filed for a public offering of its Common Stock. In connection with this offering, the Company incurred $1,325,606 of equity financing costs as of March 31, 2001. On April 25, 2001, the Company announced that it would not proceed with this public offering and the Company filed an amendment to the registration statement it initially filed, converting the filing to a shelf registration statement. Accordingly, the Company has expensed the $1,325,606 costs incurred associated with the initial registration statement. On June 1, 2001, the Company completed its shelf registration statement and incurred an additional $95,021 in expenses in connection with the shelf registration statement and has expensed these costs as incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2001.

On June 6, 2001, the Company issued 1,464,928 shares of its Common Stock at a price of $12.125 per share for gross proceeds of $17,762,252. The Company incurred issuance costs of $671,679 related to this transaction.

O. PREFERRED STOCK

The Company is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share ("Preferred Stock"). The Preferred Stock may be issued in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined at the time of issuance by the Board of Directors, without further action by stockholders, and may include voting rights (including the right to vote as a series on particular matters), preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion and redemption rights and sinking fund provisions.

On August 25, 1999, the Company completed an $8 million private placement of 8,000 shares of its Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), with Brown Simpson Strategic Growth Funds ("Brown Simpson"). The Series A Preferred Stock was convertible into 1,025,641 shares of the Company's Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock").

In connection with the transaction, Brown Simpson also received warrants to purchase up to 675,000 fully vested and immediately exercisable additional shares of Common Stock at $8.54 per share (the "Brown Simpson Warrants"). The Brown Simpson Warrants expire on August 25, 2003. The Company has valued these warrants at $1,818,558 based on the fair value of these warrants, as determined by the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and has recorded this amount as a discount to the Preferred Stock. In addition, the Company incurred direct costs of $1,338,234 in connection with this preferred stock offering which have also been recorded as a discount to the Series A Preferred Stock.

H.C. Wainwright & Co., Inc. ("H.C. Wainwright") served as placement agent for the transaction and received a commission of $560,000 and warrants to purchase 120,000 shares of the Company's

75

Common Stock at $7.80 per share. These warrants expire on August 25, 2003. H.C. Wainwright will also receive a future fee in the amount of 4% of any monies received by the Company upon the exercise of the Brown Simpson Warrants. The Company has recorded the fair value of these warrants, as determined by the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, of $550,734 as a discount to the Series A Preferred Stock.

The Company valued the Series A Preferred Stock at issuance to be $4,843,208 based on the relative fair market values of the financial instruments issued in connection with this placement and net of offering costs. The Company was accreting the carrying value of the preferred stock to its redemption value of $8,000,000 at August 25, 2003, using the effective interest method.

On March 7, 2000, the preferred stockholders elected to convert all 8,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock into 1,025,641 shares of the Company's Common Stock, which resulted in the accretion of an additional $3,105,888 of the discount on the redeemable preferred stock during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000.

In November 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF 00-27, "Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments," which provides guidance on the calculation of a beneficial conversion feature on a convertible instrument. Based upon the guidance provided in EITF 00-27, the Company has determined that the redeemable preferred stock issued in August 1999 and converted into the Company's Common Stock in March 2000 had a beneficial conversion feature of $1,940,798. Under the guidance of EITF 00-27, the Company is required to record the beneficial conversion feature of $1,940,798 as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle upon adoption during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001.

P. SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS

Significant customers, defined as those customers that account for 10% or more of total net revenue in a fiscal year or 10% or more of accounts receivable and unbilled contract costs and fees at the end of a fiscal year, were as follows:

Northrop Grumman Corporation

On November 16, 1999, the Company purchased certain intellectual property, equipment and other assets from Northrop Grumman Corporation ("NGC"). These assets were used by NGC in connection with its power electronics product business. The Company is amortizing the purchase price allocated to completed technology on a straight-line basis over a 10-year period. The Company is depreciating the purchase price allocated to property and equipment on a straight-line basis over a 10-year period. The Company also entered into (i) a sublease with NGC pursuant to which it agreed to a five-year sublease for approximately 14,863 square feet of rentable space in the Baltimore, Maryland area and (ii) a three-year Transition Services Agreement providing the Company access to certain test facilities and personnel of NGC on a fee basis. In consideration for these foregoing assets and agreements, NGC received 578,761 shares of the Company's Common Stock valued at $8.3438 per share or $4,829,066. In addition, the Company issued to NGC a warrant to purchase an additional 100,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $9.725 per share. The Company has recorded the fair value of this warrant, as determined by the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, of approximately $631,000 and approximately $119,000 of legal, accounting, consultation and filing fees as a cost of this transaction. On February 4, 2000, the Company issued to NGC an additional warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $9.725 per share. This warrant

78

is exercisable upon the occurrence of certain defined events, none of which had occurred as of September 30, 2000. The purchase price of the asset purchase has been allocated as follows:

	Transition services agreement		101,542
	Favorable lease		36,999
Total intangibles					3,281,423
				$	5,579,066

The pro forma financial information has not been presented, as this transaction is the purchase of assets rather than as a business combination. The Company has determined that this transaction was the acquisition of assets and not the acquisition of a business as this business ceased operations more than 12 months prior to this acquisition of assets, the Company did not acquire facilities, employees or customer base and there is not sufficient continuity of the acquired entity's operations prior to and after the transaction.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Company recognized $603,303, $239,532 and $413,991, respectively, of revenue, primarily related to funded research and development arrangements, from NGC. At September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company had $61,711 and $64,437, respectively, of accounts receivable and unbilled contract costs and fees from NGC.

T. SEGMENT DISCLOSURES

The Company's organizational structure is based on strategic business units that perform services and offer various products to the principal markets in which the Company's products are sold. These business units equate to three reportable segments: Applied Technology, Power Systems and Electronics.

The Company's Technology Center and its Electronic Power Products operation in Maryland perform research and development services in collaboration with third parties. The MagMotor Division, Ling Electronics and Advanced Fuel Cell Power products operations specialize in the engineering and manufacturing of power systems. Film Microelectronics, Inc designs and manufactures electronic products. The Company's principal operations and markets are located in the United States.

The accounting policies of each of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates performance based on revenue and profit and loss from operations, excluding the effects of the write-off of the public offering costs, amortization of goodwill and intangible assets associated with acquisitions and restructuring costs. Common costs not directly attributable to a particular segment are included in the Applied Technology segment. These costs include corporate costs such as executive and officer compensation, facility costs, legal, audit and tax and other professional fees and totaled $4,194,338 and $4,025,800 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

U. RESTRUCTURING COSTS

During April 2002, the Company commenced a restructuring plan designed to streamline its production base, improve efficiency and enhance its competitiveness and recorded a restructuring charge of $1.5 million. The restructuring charge includes approximately $655,000 for severance costs associated with the reduction of approximately 60 employees, or 17% of the work force. The reductions occurred in the following business segments: Applied Technology-9: Corporate-2; Electronics-16; and Power Systems-33. On a functional basis, the reductions were: manufacturing-45; research and development-4; and selling, general and administrative-11. As of September 30, 2002, the accrued restructuring costs amounts to $992,496. As of September 30, 2002, 56 employees have been terminated and the remaining 4 are expected to be terminated by March 2003. In addition, as of September 30, 2002, $507,504 of the severance has been paid and the remaining severance will be paid by March 2003. The balance of the restructuring cha rge relates to the closing of the Anaheim, CA facility. These costs include approximately $270,000 of cash charges primarily related to rent, real estate taxes and operating costs to be paid from October 1, 2002 through June 30, 2003, the remainder of the lease, and an estimated $350,000 of other cash charges for restoration and clean-up. As of September 30, 2002, no amounts have been paid nor charged against these amounts. In addition, approximately $225,000 of the restructuring charge relates to non-cash charges on assets to be disposed of. As of September 30, 2002, no assets have been disposed of nor have any amounts been charged against this amount. The Company anticipates the Anaheim, CA manufacturing facility will be closed during the second quarter of fiscal year 2003.
