To the Board of Directors and Members FCX Group Holdings, LP and Subsidiaries Columbus, Ohio Independent Auditor’s Report We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of FCX Group Holdings, LP and Subsidiaries (the Company) which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations and members’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal controls. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of FCX Group Holdings, LP and Subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

FCX GROUP HOLDINGS, LP AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2015 and 2014 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are unsecured customer obligations due under normal trade terms, generally requiring payments within 30 days from the invoice date. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to the customer. Customer account balances with invoices dated over 45 days are considered delinquent. Customers are not charged a finance charge for delinquent invoices. Payments of accounts receivable are allocated to specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoices. The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by a valuation allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. Management individually reviews all accounts receivable balances over $5,000 that exceed 60 days from the invoice date and based on an assessment of current creditworthiness, estimates the portion, if any, of the balance that will not be collected. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $603,085 and $508,337 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Inventory Inventory consists predominately of component parts and finished goods and is carried at the lower of weighted average cost or market. Cost is determined by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. The LIFO reserve was $1,781,835 and $1,586,678 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Had inventories been valued utilizing the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost assumption, the Company’s net loss for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 would have been reduced by approximately $195,000 and $313,000, respectively. The carrying amount of inventory is reduced by a valuation allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of items that are slow moving and/or obsolete. The allowance for obsolete and slow moving inventory was approximately $6,035,000 and $6,072,000 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization computed using the straight-line method. Major additions are capitalized and depreciated or amortized; maintenance and repairs, which neither improve nor extend the life of the respective assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the related accounts, and any gain or loss is included in income. 8


 
FCX GROUP HOLDINGS, LP AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2015 and 2014 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Property and Equipment (continued) Property and equipment are depreciated or amortized over their estimated useful lives as follows: Machinery and equipment 7 years Office equipment 3 - 5 years Vehicles 5 years Leasehold improvements 5 - 8 years Long-Lived Assets Impairment Policy The carrying value of long-lived assets and certain intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the amount of the asset may not be recoverable. When an indication of impairment is present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the related asset are less than the asset’s carrying amount, an impairment loss will be recorded based on the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and their estimated fair value. Management has determined that no impairment existed as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Under U.S. GAAP, goodwill and other intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are subject to impairment tests on an annual basis, at a minimum, or whenever events or circumstances occur, indicating goodwill or indefinite-lived intangibles might be impaired. Based on qualitative factors, discounted cash flows, the resulting fair value of the Company and the carrying value of tangible and intangible assets, management of the Company believes that there was no impairment as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. Deferred Loan Fees The Company has incurred certain fees relating to loan agreements. These fees are being amortized through October 2021. Loan fee amortization expense was $1,031,284 and $877,010 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $2,812,336 and $1,781,052, respectively. 9


 
FCX GROUP HOLDINGS, LP AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2015 and 2014 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Business Combinations and Acquisitions Business acquisitions are accounted for under the acquisition method. Consideration paid is recorded at fair value and the purchase price of an acquired business is allocated to the identified assets and liabilities acquired based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition, with any residual amounts allocated to goodwill. Purchase price allocations are considered preliminary until all required information is obtained to complete the allocation. Although the time required to obtain the necessary information varies with circumstances specific to an individual acquisition, the “allocation period” for finalizing purchase price allocations would not exceed one year from the date of consummation of an acquisition. Adjustments to the allocation of purchase price may increase or decrease those amounts allocated to goodwill and, as such, may increase those amounts allocated to other tangible or intangible assets and assumed liabilities, which may result in higher depreciation or amortization expense in future periods. Revisions to preliminary purchase price allocations, if any, are reflected prospectively. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of current assets and liabilities approximate their fair market value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Management believes the carrying amount on the long-term debt approximates its fair value as the interest rates and terms of the borrowings are similar to currently available borrowings. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue when goods are shipped and when services are performed. Payments received from customers in advance are recorded as unearned revenue until the goods are shipped. Sales taxes collected from customers are recorded on a net basis. Income Taxes FCX Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. Income taxes are allocated to each company based on the earnings of each company. The Company’s provision is based on statutory rates and adjusted for certain permanent differences. Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities at each year- end based on enacted tax laws and statutory rates. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense represents the taxes currently payable and the net change during the year in deferred tax assets and liabilities. 10


 
FCX GROUP HOLDINGS, LP AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2015 and 2014 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Income Taxes (continued) The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes in its financial statements as required under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. The standard prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The standard also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition accounting. Management determined there were no material uncertain positions taken by the Company in its tax returns. Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash includes cash on hand and demand deposits. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted when meeting certain criteria. The standard addresses revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. Management is in the process of assessing the implementation of this standard. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability rather than as an asset. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by ASU 2015-03. The guidance is effective for non-public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and is required to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the implementation of this standard. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. The amendments in this update apply to all entities that have reported provisional amounts for items in a business combination and during the measurement period have an adjustment to provisional amounts recognized. This ASU requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period the adjustment amounts are determined. The guidance is effective for non-public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and must be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted the new guidance for the year ended December 31, 2015. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. 11


 
FCX GROUP HOLDINGS, LP AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2015 and 2014 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued) In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. ASU 2015-17 simplifies the presentation of deferred taxes by requiring deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The guidance is effective for non-public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the implementation of this standard. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which enhances transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The main difference between previous GAAP and Topic 842 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. The guidance includes a new definition of a lease, which will be classified as either a finance lease or operating lease. Other changes include certain aspects of lessee accounting, lessor accounting, leveraged leases, sale and leaseback transactions and required disclosures. The guidance is effective for non-public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for all entities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is in the process of assessing the implementation of this standard. Cash The Company maintains its cash, which may at times exceed federally insured limits, in several accounts with three financial institutions. Business Acquisitions The Company makes acquisitions to expand into new markets and to increase its presence in its existing markets. The Company makes acquisitions that, in the judgment of its members, will enhance future profitability. As it considers an acquisition’s synergistic and strategic value in concert with the intrinsic value of the acquired assets, the Company may offer an acquisition price that exceeds the economic value of the assets acquired, thus resulting in the recognition of goodwill. 12

The agreement requires quarterly payments of interest at the Base Rate (the highest of the prime rate, federal funds rate plus 0.50%, or LIBOR plus 1%) or monthly payments of interest at the Eurodollar Rate (the higher of LIBOR or 1%), plus an applicable margin based on the Company’s leverage ratio. In March 2013, the term note payable agreement was amended to reduce the applicable margin by 0.50%. The interest rate at December 31, 2015 and 2014 was based on the Eurodollar rate and was 5.50%.

FCX GROUP HOLDINGS, LP AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2015 and 2014 Income Taxes (continued) The federal AMT credit carryforward of approximately $223,000 at December 31, 2015 has no expiration date. No valuation allowance for deferred tax assets has been provided because management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences. Derivative Financial Instrument – Interest Rate Cap The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. In May 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement to manage its risks associated with its variable rate term note payable. In December 2014, the Company entered into an additional interest rate cap agreement. The differential to be paid or received under the agreement is recognized as an adjustment to interest expense over the life of the agreement. The Company recognizes on the balance sheet the value that best approximates the fair market value of the interest rate cap agreement. The interest rate cap agreement does not meet the accounting hedge criteria required and therefore, changes in the fair value of this instrument are recorded in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The notional amount of the interest rate caps amortize over the terms of the agreements through December 2017. The notional amounts as of December 31, 2015 totaled $34,919,337. Under the interest rate cap agreements, LIBOR is capped at 4.00% on the outstanding notional amount. The fair market value of the interest rate cap was not material at December 31, 2015 or 2014. The fair value of the interest rate cap was obtained from the bank. This value represented the estimated amount the Company would pay or receive to terminate the agreement, taking into consideration the difference between the contract rate of interest and rates currently quoted for agreements of similar terms and maturities. The actual amount could differ from the approximated fair market value. Equity In October 2012, FCX Group Holdings, LP purchased all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of FCX Holdings Corporation. As part of the transaction, 1,266,952,510 preferred units and 15,356,998 common units were issued.

FCX GROUP HOLDINGS, LP AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2015 and 2014 Retirement Plan The Company sponsors a 401(k) profit sharing and savings plan covering substantially all employees. Participation in the plan is voluntary and an employee may defer up to 100% of compensation not to exceed the maximum permitted by law. Effective April 1, 2014, the Company began making matching contributions of 2% of the first 6% of employee contributions. The plan also allows for discretionary matching contributions by the Company. The Company made matching contributions of approximately $395,000 and $195,000 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Employee Benefits It is the Company’s policy to partially self-insure employee healthcare coverage; therefore, a provision is made for the estimated costs of known and anticipated claims. The Company generally has stop-loss coverage for employee healthcare in excess of $125,000 per covered participant per coverage period and no lifetime limit per covered participant. Because of the inherent uncertainties in estimating claims, it is at least reasonably possible that the Company’s estimated claims could change in the near term. The outstanding balance of the accrual for self-insured coverage as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 was approximately $320,000 and $241,000, respectively. Subsequent Events – Date of Management’s Evaluation The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date of the Independent Auditor’s Report, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. 23
