Space solar business at EPV is strong with good visibility and continued growth

•

Business is forecasted for continued profitability

Digital fiber business (10Gb and others) is recovering from the downturn caused by second source and inventory management

Solar power business units – ESP – will release new products to production by October 2007. Demand for products are lined up.

Priorities

Conclude the stock option restatement and file 10-K and 10-Qs

Close New Jersey site (due to HQ relocation) and recognize subsequent cost savings

Introduce terrestrial concentrator PV system to production providing the most cost-effective solution

Increase gross margins through more focused supply chain management and establishment of China Operations

Increase production capacity at Ortel and EPV to meet future growth demands

Expand the digital fiber (EFO) business with a broader product portfolio within Enterprise applications and enter Infiniband and Telecom markets
