These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of NexStar Automation, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

See notes to consolidated financial statements. F-6 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AMOUNTS EXPRESSED IN UNITED STATES DOLLARS) NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company is engaged in the business of designing, assembling, customizing, installing and supporting production automation systems, which typically incorporate customized robotics. The Company's focus is directed toward the data storage, medical/pharmaceutical and food processing industries. The Company commenced operations on January 4, 1993. In April of 1994, FBA Ventures Ltd. ("FBA") acquired all the issued and outstanding common shares of NexStar Corporation ("NexStar") in exchange for 2,700,000 shares of common stock of FBA, of which 2,525,000 shares held in escrow. For financial reporting purposes, the business combination was accounted for as an additional capitalization of the Company (a reverse acquisition with NexStar as the acquirer). NexStar is considered the surviving entity. The historical financial statements prior to the merger are those of NexStar. The stockholders of NexStar received 2,700,000 shares of FBA stock for an approximate 58% interest in the new combined entity. FBA's only assets consisted of cash and funds advanced to NexStar. ESCROW AGREEMENT According to the purchase agreement, 2,525,000 shares of FBA common stock are to be placed in escrow with the Escrow Agent for the Shareholder. In September of 1994, 224,015 shares were released leaving 2,300,985 escrow shares as of December 31, 1994. The shareholders may exercise all voting rights of these shares with certain restrictions. Under the escrow agreement, the shares may be released annually, on a pro rata basis based on the Company's cumulative cash flow. In the event that any escrow shares are not released from escrow before December 31, 2004, those escrow shares are to be canceled. The escrow shares are presented as outstanding in these financial statements as management believes they will all be released from escrow. F-7 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AMOUNTS EXPRESSED IN UNITED STATES DOLLARS) NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The 1995 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NexStar Automation, Inc. and Subsidiary, a Canadian corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary NexStar Corporation (a Colorado corporation). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. RECONCILIATION OF CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES The differences between generally accepted accounting principles used in Canada (Canadian GAAP) and the United States (U.S. GAAP) do not significantly impact the financial statements of the Company for all periods presented. All amounts are expressed in United States dollars. INVENTORY Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and primarily consists of purchased raw materials and work in process. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are stated at cost. Replacements, renewals and improvements are capitalized and costs for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of five years. ORGANIZATION COSTS Organization costs are all business start-up costs incurred by the Company. These costs have been capitalized and are being amortized over a five-year period. DEFERRED OFFERING COSTS Deferred offering costs represent costs incurred in connection with the Company's proposed public offering in the United States. Deferred offering costs will be offset against net proceeds, if successful, or expensed in operations if the offering is unsuccessful. F-8 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AMOUNTS EXPRESSED IN UNITED STATES DOLLARS) NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue from automation projects is accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method, using labor costs incurred to date in relation to estimated total labor costs of the contracts to measure the stage of completion. The cumulative effects of revisions of estimated total contract costs and revenues are recorded in the period in which the facts requiring the revision become known. When a loss is anticipated on a contract, the full amount thereof is provided currently. The differences between amounts billed and revenue recognized is shown as revenue in excess of billings and deferred revenue on the accompanying balance sheets. Totals of revenue earned billings on uncompleted contracts are as follows: December 31, --------------------------------- 1994 1995 -------------- --------------- Revenue recognized to date $ 150,250 $ 1,592,565 Billings to date (96,871) (1,513,315) -------------- --------------- Revenue in excess of billings $ 53,379 $ 79,250 ============== =============== CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid cash investments with original maturity dates of three months or less to be cash equivalents. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK The Company occasionally has deposits in financial institutions which exceed the federally insured limits as of December 31, 1995. This amount exceeded the limits by approximately $307,000. The Company reduced its credit risk with respect to receivables by requiring deposits before production begins and continually monitors the industries and its customers before granting credit. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development costs for new products are charged to expense as incurred. F-9 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AMOUNTS EXPRESSED IN UNITED STATES DOLLARS) NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain accounts in the December 31, 1994 and 1995 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109") (Note 6). USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. NOTE 2 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS In March of 1995, the Company issued 54,617 shares of its common stock to the President of the Company as compensation for guarantying the line-of-credit. The shares were valued at $.46 per share, the fair market value of the stock on the date of issue. NOTE 3 - NOTE RECEIVABLE At December 31, 1995, the Company received a note receivable totaling $70,000. The note is payable in quarterly installments of $4,107, commencing February 1996 through November 2000. The note bears interest at 7% and is without collateral. Future maturities of this note are as follows: Year Ending December 31, ------------------------ 1996 $ 13,123 1997 12,775 1998 13,693 1999 14,677 2000 15,732 --------- $ 70,000 ========= F-10 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AMOUNTS EXPRESSED IN UNITED STATES DOLLARS) NOTE 4 - NOTES PAYABLE AND LINE-OF-CREDIT Notes payable consist of the following: December 31, --------------------------------- 1995 1994 -------------- --------------- Unsecured notes payable to individuals due on demand. $ 12,000 $ 35,000 ============== =============== NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In February 1995, the Company entered into a lease agreement for its office and manufacturing facilities. Under the terms of the lease, the Company is obligated to make monthly payments of $8,166 through termination of the lease on April 1, 1997. Amounts due after December 31, 1995 are as follows: 1996 $ 97,992 1997 24,498 ------------- Total $ 122,490 ============= Rental expense for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 was approximately $91,000 and $28,000, respectively. In fiscal 1994, the Company entered into $65,000 line-of-credit agreement with a bank. During 1995, the line-of-credit was renewed to provide up to $150,000 of borrowings and matures January 31, 1996. Total outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit were $0 and $52,700 at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The line is collateralized by the Company's savings account and guaranteed by the Company's President. The line accrues interest at 7%. NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES Effective for the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS 109) which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the difference is expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. F-11 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AMOUNTS EXPRESSED IN UNITED STATES DOLLARS) NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED) The components of the provision for income taxes are as follows: December 31, -------------------------------------------------- 1993 1994 1995 --------------- --------------- --------------- Current tax provision Federal $ - $ 3,200 $ (4,500) State - 384 (380) ------------- ------------- ------------- - 3,584 (4,880) Deferred tax expense Federal (5,250) - (10,370) State (1,750) - (900) ------------- ------------- ------------- (7,000) - (11,270) ------------- ------------- ------------- $ (7,000) $ 3,584 $ (16,150) ============= ============= ============= The principal temporary differences that result in the deferred tax liability are depreciation for tax purposes in excess of depreciation for financial reporting purposes as well as other items being amortized for financial reporting purposes which are currently deductible for tax purposes. NOTE 7 - GAIN ON EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT During the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company settled outstanding legal bills totaling $41,052 for $19,000 resulting in an extraordinary gain of $22,052.

F-17 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 -- INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) In the opinion of Nexstar Automation, Incorporated and Subsidiary (the "Company"), the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at June 30, 1996 and the results of their operations and changes in cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. NOTE 2 -- ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company is engaged in the business of designing, assembling, customizing, installing and supporting production automation systems, which typically incorporate customized robotics. The Company's focus is directed toward the data storage, medical/pharmaceutical and food processing industries. The Company commenced operations on January 4, 1993. In April of 1994, FBA Ventures Ltd. ("FBA") acquired all the issued and outstanding common shares of NexStar Corporation ("NexStar") in exchange for 2,700,000 shares of common stock of FBA, of which 2,525,000 shares held in escrow. For financial reporting purposes, the business combination was accounted for as an additional capitalization of the Company (a reverse acquisition with NexStar as the acquirer). NexStar is considered the surviving entity. The historical financial statements prior to the merger are those of NexStar. The stockholders of NexStar received 2,700,000 shares of FBA stock for an approximate 58% interest in the new combined entity. FBA's only assets consisted of cash and funds advanced to NexStar. ESCROW AGREEMENT According to the purchase agreement, 2,525,000 shares of FBA common stock are to be placed in escrow with the Escrow Agent for the Shareholder. In September of 1994, 224,015 shares were released leaving 2,300,985 escrow shares as of December 31, 1994. The shareholders may exercise all voting rights of these shares with certain restrictions. Under the escrow agreement, the shares may be released annually, on a prorata basis based on the Company's cumulative cash flow. In the event that any escrow shares are not released from escrow before December 31, 2004, those escrow shares are to be canceled. The escrow shares are presented as outstanding in these financial statements as management believes they will all be released from escrow. F-18 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 2 -- ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NexStar Automation, Inc. and Subsidiary, a Canadian corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary NexStar Corporation (a Colorado corporation). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. RECONCILIATION OF CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES The differences between generally accepted accounting principles used in Canada (Canadian GAAP) and the United States (U.S. GAAP) do not significantly impact the financial statements of the Company. All amounts are expressed in United States dollars. INVENTORY Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and primarily consists of purchased raw materials and work in process. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are stated at cost. Replacements, renewals and improvements are capitalized and costs for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of five years. ORGANIZATION COSTS Organization costs are all business start-up costs incurred by the Company. These costs have been capitalized and are being amortized over a five-year period. DEFERRED OFFERING COSTS Deferred offering costs represent costs incurred in connection with the Company's proposed public offering in the United States. Deferred offering costs will be offset against net proceeds, if successful, or expensed in operations if the offering is unsuccessful. F-19 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 2 -- ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue from automation projects is accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method, using labor costs incurred to date in relation to estimated total labor costs of the contracts to measure the stage of completion. The cumulative effects of revisions of estimated total contract costs and revenues are recorded in the period in which the facts requiring the revision become known. When a loss is anticipated on a contract, the full amount thereof is provided currently. The differences between amounts billed and revenue recognized is shown as revenue in excess of billings and deferred revenue on the accompanying balance sheets. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid cash investments with original maturity dates of three months or less to be cash equivalents. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK The Company occasionally has deposits in financial institutions which exceed the federally insured limits as of June 30, 1996. This amount exceeded the limits by approximately $400,000. The Company reduced its credit risk with respect to receivables by requiring deposits before production begins and continually monitors the industries and its customers before granting credit. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development costs for new products are charged to expense as incurred. INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109") (Note 6). USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. F-20 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 3 -- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS In March of 1995, the Company issued 54,617 shares of its common stock to the President of the Company as compensation for guarantying the line-of-credit. The shares were valued at $.46 per share, the fair market value of the stock on the date of issue. NOTE 4 -- NOTE RECEIVABLE At December 31, 1995, the Company received a note receivable totaling $70,000. The note is payable in quarterly installments of $4,107, commencing February 1996 through November 2000. The note bears interest at 7% and is without collateral. Future maturities of this note are as follows: Year Ending December 31, ------------------------ 1996 $ 13,123 1997 12,775 1998 13,693 1999 14,677 2000 15,732 -------- $ 70,000 ======== NOTE 5 -- NOTES PAYABLE AND LINE-OF-CREDIT Notes payable consist of the following: June 30, 1996 ----------- (Unaudited) Unsecured notes payable to individuals due on demand. $ 12,000 ======== F-21 NEXSTAR AUTOMATION, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 6 -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In February 1995, the Company entered into a lease agreement for its office and manufacturing facilities. Under the terms of the lease, the Company is obligated to make monthly payments of $8,166 through termination of the lease on April 1, 1997. Amounts due after June 30, 1996 are as follows: 1996 $ 48,996 1997 24,498 -------- Total $ 73,494 ======== F-22 The accompanying pro forma consolidated financial information is presented in U.S. dollars and has been prepared under U.S. accounting standards. PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION Effective as of August 8, 1996, Zygo completed its acquisition of Technical Instruments Company. Prior to the acquisition, Technical Instrument Company ("TIC") was engaged in two businesses: the proprietary products division which designs, develops, manufactures, markets, and sells microscopy systems and subsystems, or modules, and a distribution division which acts as a sales representative for other firms' products. In connection with the acquisition, the distribution division was spun off into a new company, Technical Instruments - - San Francisco, prior to the completion of the acquisition of the TIC stock by Zygo. The consideration given for the stock acquired was approximately $11,700,000 in cash and common stock of Zygo valued at $3,000,000. Zygo has accounted for the acquisition of TIC as a purchase under the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Effective as of September 12, 1996, Zygo completed its acquisition of NexStar Automation, Inc. ("NexStar") in which Zygo exchanged 250,000 shares of its common stock for all of the issued and outstanding shares of NexStar. The following pro forma consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income (collectively, the "Pro Forma Financial Statements") were prepared by Zygo to illustrate the estimated effects of the business combination with TIC and of the business combination with NexStar which is accounted for as a pooling-of-interest under U.S. GAAP. The pro forma financial information has been referred to as "consolidated" with the NexStar pooling and represents the consolidation of TIC pursuant to purchase accounting. The pro forma consolidated financial statements do not present the net assets or results of operations of TIC's discontinued distribution segment. The pro forma consolidated statements of operations also do not present a nonrecurring charge to earnings of $10,084,000 relating to in-process research and development of TIC. Note: In preparing the Pro Forma Financial Statements, financial data from the same periods as Zygo has been compiled; therefore, the Pro Forma Financial Statements cover Zygo's fiscal periods and not those of TIC and NexStar. All amounts in the Pro Forma Financial Statements are stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated. The Pro Forma Financial Statements give retrospective effect to material differences between Zygo's and TIC's and NexStar's accounting policies which have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Pro Forma Financial Statements also give retrospective effect for the allocation of the TIC purchase price to the assets and intangibles of TIC. Such intangibles include patents, licenses, drawings and technology, customer lists, workforce, in-process research and development, and F-23 goodwill. The Pro Forma Financial Statements do not purport to represent what the consolidated financial position or results of operations actually would have been if the combination with TIC and NexStar had occurred at the beginning of the periods or to project the consolidated financial position or results of operations for any future date or period. The Pro Forma Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, of Zygo, TIC, and NexStar, prepared in accordance with the U.S. GAAP. The Pro Forma Financial Statements are presented utilizing purchase accounting with respect to the Zygo/TIC consolidation and the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for the proposed NexStar acquisition. In pooling-of-interests accounting the recorded assets, liabilities, shareholders' equity, and results of operations of Zygo/TIC and NexStar become the consolidated assets, liabilities, shareholders' equity, and results of operations. The Pro Forma Financial Statements also include pro forma adjustments which are based upon available information and certain assumptions that management of Zygo believes are reasonable in the circumstances. Such pro forma adjustments reflect the effects of (1) the exchange of each NexStar Common Share outstanding for .04 shares of a Zygo share and (2) conforming NexStar's adjusted financial information to Zygo's basis of accounting.
