NOTE C — DISCONTINUED AND HELD-FOR-SALE OPERATIONS

Construction and Engineering Services Business

In December 2009, the Company announced its plan to sell its CES business, consisting of its Martell Electric and Ideal subsidiaries, inorder to raise operating capital and focus on its core industrial services operations. On February 3, 2010, the Company completed the sale of 100 percent of the equity of Martell Electric and Ideal to the Company’s Chairman and formerPresident and Chief Executive Officer, John A. Martell, and his wife, Bonnie M. Martell, for $3,500, consisting of $750 in cash and a $2,750 reduction in the amount owed under a previously issued $3,000 note held by Mr. Martell (the“Martell Note”). Under the sale agreement, the purchase price was subject to a working capital adjustment which the Company could satisfy either with cash or by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Martell Note.

The sale agreement set forth a target working capital range of $2,900-$3,200 at closing.Immediately post-closing, the actual combined working capital for Martell Electric/Ideal was approximately $1,226. During the first half of 2010, the Company recorded working capital adjustments of $(1,654), choosing to satisfy the working capitaladjustment by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Martell Note. These adjustments brought the final sale price to $1,846, comprised of $527 for Ideal and $1,319 for Martell Electric, with the final sale proceeds consisting of a cashpayment of $750 and a net reduction of $1,096 in amounts owed under the Martell Note. During the six months ended July 4, 2010, the Company recognized a pretax gain on sale of $136 from the sale of its CES business, which was included in theCompany’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations within Income from Discontinued Operations.

Mr. Martelldisputes the settlement of the working capital adjustment and has requested that our disinterested director negotiate to satisfy the working capital adjustment other than through an increase in the outstanding principal balance of the Martell Note.A letter from Mr. Martell to the Company, dated September 3, 2010, purports to accelerate payment of the amount due under the Martell Note. The subordination agreement prohibits payment without Wells Fargo’s prior written consent,which has not been obtained. (See Note H, Related Party Transactions and Note K, Commitments and Contingencies).
