Exhibit 95
 
MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURE

Section 1503 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act requires domestic mine operators to disclose violations and orders issued under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”) by the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”).  We do not act as the owner of any mines but we may act as a mining operator as defined under the Mine Act where we may be an independent contractor performing services or construction of such mine.  For 2012, revenues from services and construction of a mine were less than $100 million.  Due to timing and other factors, the data may not agree with the mine data retrieval system maintained by MSHA.

The fatality did not occur on the job site, and no safety violations were issued.  The employee was injured on site, but passed away later while recuperating at home.  MSHA stated there was no negligence on the part of FKCI.  However, MSHA charged the fatality to the project, based on the local coroner’s preliminary finding that death was linked to the work injury.
