SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. Some of the statements contained in this Memorandum, including statements contained in the sections captioned "EXECUTIVE SUMMARY," "CARTIS ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE, MANAGEMENT, PRODUCTION, SALES & MARKETING", "COMPETITION" and "FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS" discuss future expectations and intentions, contain projections of results of operations or financial condition or state other "forward-looking" information. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "plan," "intend," "hope," "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "continue" or other similar words. Statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the statements. Investors should consult the "Risk Factors" contained herein in order to assess the risks involved with the investment. The forward-looking information is based on various factors and was derived using numerous assumptions. When considering such forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors referenced above and other cautionary statements in this Memorandum. Important factors that may cause actual results to differ from the Company's projections include, for example: the success or failure of the Company's test trials on new products; the Company's ability to enter into joint venture, co-marketing or other strategic partnering relationships with established companies; marketplace acceptance of the Company's water purification products; whether other companies develop products which are competitive with the Company's; The Company's ability to obtain future financing to fund Company growth and the Company's continued transition to commercial operations; the Company's ability to negotiate and maintain favorable distribution arrangements for the Company's products; changes in government regulations; and the Company's ability to attract and retain qualified employees.

Private and Confidential Cartis Incorporated EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Cartis has discovered, developed, commercialized and patented a new state-of-the-art process to purify water at low cost, and in quantities that are adequate to supply the potable water requirements of human consumption, including drinking, cooking and other domestic needs. The CARTIS process can also greatly improve vegetable growing in greenhouses. Management believes that the water quality after CARTIS treatment often surpasses other commonly available methods and sources of potable water, including bottled water. *** The huge potable water markets around the world rely on a variety of well-known and documented treatment and filtration methods. Most often, these methods only bring partial solutions to water pollution problems. The main methods and processes most commonly in use around the world utilize: * UV lamps, which almost totally destroy bacteria in clear water, are limited to bacteria elimination only, * Active Carbon ("AC") is renowned for the elimination of odors, chlorine, heavy metals and pesticides. Since AC does not destroy bacteria, its usage is severely limited by rapid bacterial saturation, which forces frequent filter replacements. Also, water treated with AC is void of bactericidal properties, * Active Carbon with Silver Coating solves the issue of internal bacteria contamination, but its process is severely limited by the risk of silver nitrate pollution, a heavy metal, and a short useful life. In order to prevent silver nitrate pollution, forbidden in most developed countries, the quantity of nitrate coating is kept to a minimum, thereby greatly diminishing its usefulness. * Water Softeners suppress calcium, which is responsible for water hardness and limestone deposits. However these softeners diminish the cleaning properties of water and give it an unpleasant taste. Moreover, softeners facilitate bacteria proliferation. CARTIS incorporates several existing proven methods of water filtration and treatment, while significantly improving on them. CARTIS breakthrough technology creates a permanent bond between pure silver and active carbon, thereby joining one of the best bactericidal agent with a time tested pollution screener. This technology delivers potable water without harming the delicate balance of minerals naturally present in water. The CARTIS showcase product currently on the market is the Potable Water System PWS 300. The PWS 300 provides potable water void of limestone to households, hospitals, schools, hotels, without the use of chlorine. Water treated by CARTIS keeps destroying bacteria, even after treatment. The PWS 300 incorporates the following elements: * One coarse filter for large impurities, then downstream, * One Xxxxxxxx UV lamp with an output of 25,000 millijoules that corresponds to European standards and surpasses US standards for potable water. The lamp's output is sufficient to eliminate bacteria up to 99% in clear water, then downstream, * One CARTIS cartridge. The cartridge contains a powder composed of pure silver 99.9999 (6N) bonded by intermolecular links to active carbon. The bond is performed in radio frequency, low-pressure cold plasma reactors. The CARTIS process is patented worldwide. The bonding of silver and active carbon ensures bacteria destruction during and after treatment, while eliminating the problem of silver nitrates pollution. Chlorine, a harmful chemical, is the only competing product to CARTIS with similar conservation properties of bacteria destruction after treatment. Private and Confidential

Private and Confidential Cartis Incorporated EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Cartis has discovered, developed, commercialized and patented a new state-of-the-art process to purify water at low cost, and in quantities that are adequate to supply the potable water requirements of human consumption, including drinking, cooking and other domestic needs. The CARTIS process can also greatly improve vegetable growing in greenhouses. Management believes that the water quality after CARTIS treatment often surpasses other commonly available methods and sources of potable water, including bottled water. *** The huge potable water markets around the world rely on a variety of well-known and documented treatment and filtration methods. Most often, these methods only bring partial solutions to water pollution problems. The main methods and processes most commonly in use around the world utilize: * UV lamps, which almost totally destroy bacteria in clear water, are limited to bacteria elimination only, * Active Carbon ("AC") is renowned for the elimination of odors, chlorine, heavy metals and pesticides. Since AC does not destroy bacteria, its usage is severely limited by rapid bacterial saturation, which forces frequent filter replacements. Also, water treated with AC is void of bactericidal properties, * Active Carbon with Silver Coating solves the issue of internal bacteria contamination, but its process is severely limited by the risk of silver nitrate pollution, a heavy metal, and a short useful life. In order to prevent silver nitrate pollution, forbidden in most developed countries, the quantity of nitrate coating is kept to a minimum, thereby greatly diminishing its usefulness. * Water Softeners suppress calcium, which is responsible for water hardness and limestone deposits. However these softeners diminish the cleaning properties of water and give it an unpleasant taste. Moreover, softeners facilitate bacteria proliferation. CARTIS incorporates several existing proven methods of water filtration and treatment, while significantly improving on them. CARTIS breakthrough technology creates a permanent bond between pure silver and active carbon, thereby joining one of the best bactericidal agent with a time tested pollution screener. This technology delivers potable water without harming the delicate balance of minerals naturally present in water. The CARTIS showcase product currently on the market is the Potable Water System PWS 300. The PWS 300 provides potable water void of limestone to households, hospitals, schools, hotels, without the use of chlorine. Water treated by CARTIS keeps destroying bacteria, even after treatment. The PWS 300 incorporates the following elements: * One coarse filter for large impurities, then downstream, * One Xxxxxxxx UV lamp with an output of 25,000 millijoules that corresponds to European standards and surpasses US standards for potable water. The lamp's output is sufficient to eliminate bacteria up to 99% in clear water, then downstream, * One CARTIS cartridge. The cartridge contains a powder composed of pure silver 99.9999 (6N) bonded by intermolecular links to active carbon. The bond is performed in radio frequency, low-pressure cold plasma reactors. The CARTIS process is patented worldwide. The bonding of silver and active carbon ensures bacteria destruction during and after treatment, while eliminating the problem of silver nitrates pollution. Chlorine, a harmful chemical, is the only competing product to CARTIS with similar conservation properties of bacteria destruction after treatment. Private and Confidential.

Private and Confidential Cartis Incorporated EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Cartis has discovered, developed, commercialized and patented a new state-of-the-art process to purify water at low cost, and in quantities that are adequate to supply the potable water requirements of human consumption, including drinking, cooking and other domestic needs. The CARTIS process can also greatly improve vegetable growing in greenhouses. Management believes that the water quality after CARTIS treatment often surpasses other commonly available methods and sources of potable water, including bottled water. *** The huge potable water markets around the world rely on a variety of well-known and documented treatment and filtration methods. Most often, these methods only bring partial solutions to water pollution problems. The main methods and processes most commonly in use around the world utilize: * UV lamps, which almost totally destroy bacteria in clear water, are limited to bacteria elimination only, * Active Carbon ("AC") is renowned for the elimination of odors, chlorine, heavy metals and pesticides. Since AC does not destroy bacteria, its usage is severely limited by rapid bacterial saturation, which forces frequent filter replacements. Also, water treated with AC is void of bactericidal properties, * Active Carbon with Silver Coating solves the issue of internal bacteria contamination, but its process is severely limited by the risk of silver nitrate pollution, a heavy metal, and a short useful life. In order to prevent silver nitrate pollution, forbidden in most developed countries, the quantity of nitrate coating is kept to a minimum, thereby greatly diminishing its usefulness. * Water Softeners suppress calcium, which is responsible for water hardness and limestone deposits. However these softeners diminish the cleaning properties of water and give it an unpleasant taste. Moreover, softeners facilitate bacteria proliferation. CARTIS incorporates several existing proven methods of water filtration and treatment, while significantly improving on them. CARTIS breakthrough technology creates a permanent bond between pure silver and active carbon, thereby joining one of the best bactericidal agent with a time tested pollution screener. This technology delivers potable water without harming the delicate balance of minerals naturally present in water. The CARTIS showcase product currently on the market is the Potable Water System PWS 300. The PWS 300 provides potable water void of limestone to households, hospitals, schools, hotels, without the use of chlorine. Water treated by CARTIS keeps destroying bacteria, even after treatment. The PWS 300 incorporates the following elements: * One coarse filter for large impurities, then downstream, * One Xxxxxxxx UV lamp with an output of 25,000 millijoules that corresponds to European standards and surpasses US standards for potable water. The lamp's output is sufficient to eliminate bacteria up to 99% in clear water, then downstream, * One CARTIS cartridge. The cartridge contains a powder composed of pure silver 99.9999 (6N) bonded by intermolecular links to active carbon. The bond is performed in radio frequency, low-pressure cold plasma reactors. The CARTIS process is patented worldwide. The bonding of silver and active carbon ensures bacteria destruction during and after treatment, while eliminating the problem of silver nitrates pollution. Chlorine, a harmful chemical, is the only competing product to CARTIS with similar conservation properties of bacteria destruction after treatment. Private and Confidential.

Private and Confidential Cartis Incorporated EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Cartis has discovered, developed, commercialized and patented a new state-of-the-art process to purify water at low cost, and in quantities that are adequate to supply reflect the potable water requirements occurrence of human consumption, including drinking, cooking and other domestic needs. The CARTIS process can also greatly improve vegetable growing in greenhouses. Management believes that the water quality after CARTIS treatment often surpasses other commonly available methods and sources of potable water, including bottled water. *** The huge potable water markets around the world rely on a variety of well-known and documented treatment and filtration methods. Most often, these methods only bring partial solutions to water pollution problems. The main methods and processes most commonly in use around the world utilize: * UV lamps, which almost totally destroy bacteria in clear water, are limited to bacteria elimination only, * Active Carbon ("AC") is renowned for the elimination of odors, chlorine, heavy metals and pesticides. Since AC does not destroy bacteria, its usage is severely limited by rapid bacterial saturation, which forces frequent filter replacements. Also, water treated with AC is void of bactericidal properties, * Active Carbon with Silver Coating solves the issue of internal bacteria contamination, but its process is severely limited by the risk of silver nitrate pollution, a heavy metal, and a short useful life. In order to prevent silver nitrate pollution, forbidden in most developed countries, the quantity of nitrate coating is kept to a minimum, thereby greatly diminishing its usefulness. * Water Softeners suppress calcium, which is responsible for water hardness and limestone deposits. However these softeners diminish the cleaning properties of water and give it an unpleasant taste. Moreover, softeners facilitate bacteria proliferation. CARTIS incorporates several existing proven methods of water filtration and treatment, while significantly improving on them. CARTIS breakthrough technology creates a permanent bond between pure silver and active carbon, thereby joining one of the best bactericidal agent with a time tested pollution screener. This technology delivers potable water without harming the delicate balance of minerals naturally present in water. The CARTIS showcase product currently on the market is the Potable Water System PWS 300. The PWS 300 provides potable water void of limestone to households, hospitals, schools, hotels, without the use of chlorine. Water treated by CARTIS keeps destroying bacteria, even after treatment. The PWS 300 incorporates the following elements: * One coarse filter for large impurities, then downstream, * One Xxxxxxxx UV lamp with an output of 25,000 millijoules that corresponds to European standards and surpasses US standards for potable water. The lamp's output is sufficient to eliminate bacteria up to 99% in clear water, then downstream, * One CARTIS cartridge. The cartridge contains a powder composed of pure silver 99.9999 (6N) bonded by intermolecular links to active carbon. The bond is performed in radio frequency, low-pressure cold plasma reactors. The CARTIS process is patented worldwide. The bonding of silver and active carbon ensures bacteria destruction during and after treatment, while eliminating the problem of silver nitrates pollution. Chlorine, a harmful chemical, is the only competing product to CARTIS with similar conservation properties of bacteria destruction after treatment. Private and Confidentialunanticipated events.

Our products and services are used on domestic and foreign commercial and military aircraft, helicopter, missile and space programs. We are the successor to a business that was founded in assumptions or California in 1849 and reincorporated in Delaware in 1970. On April 3, 2011, we entered into a Merger Agreement to acquire XxXxxxx for approximately $338.1 million comprised of approximately $310.3 million in equity and $27.8 million of outstanding XxXxxxx debt, which will be repaid at closing of the Merger. XxXxxxx provides custom high-performance electronic, electromechanical and interconnect systems on a contractual basis for customers in the aerospace and defense and several other factors that could affect those statementsmarkets. Private We believe our acquisition of XxXxxxx (the “XxXxxxx Acquisition”) will allow us to significantly expand our existing presence in the aerospace and Confidential Cartis Incorporated EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Cartis has discovered, developed, commercialized and patented a defense industry as well as to diversify our net sales base across new state-of-the-art process to purify water at low cost, and in quantities that are adequate to supply the potable water requirements of human consumptionmarkets, including drinkingindustrial, cooking natural resources and medical. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, Merger Sub will be merged with and into XxXxxxx, with XxXxxxx (which will be renamed Xxxxxxxx XxXxxxx Technologies, Inc.) continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ducommun. In the Merger, each outstanding share of XxXxxxx common stock will be cancelled and converted (subject to the exercise of appraisal rights) into the right to receive $19.25 per share in cash. The proceeds from the notes offered, together with borrowings under the New Credit Facilities will be used to finance the cost of the XxXxxxx Acquisition, refinance certain existing indebtedness of Ducommun and XxXxxxx, pay fees and expenses in connection with the Transactions and add new cash to our balance sheet. Incorporated in 1968, XxXxxxx provides EMS services, which involves the manufacture of custom, complex, high-reliability and mission-critical products for customers in diverse technology-driven markets, such as the aerospace and defense, industrial, natural resources, medical and other domestic needscommercial markets. XxXxxxx markets its services to customers desiring a manufacturing and engineering partner capable of developing and providing products that can perform reliably in harsh environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures, severe shock and vibration and with rapid turnaround time. The CARTIS process can also greatly improve vegetable growing sophistication and complexity of the products XxXxxxx designs and manufactures require superior quality. XxXxxxx is capable of quickly producing multiple sophisticated electronics products utilizing the same manufacturing set up resulting in greenhousesincreased efficiency and higher margins as compared to less-sophisticated high-volume product lines. Management believes This low-volume and high-mix production expertise, together with its lean manufacturing culture and service driven business model, enables XxXxxxx to consistently achieve attractive profit margins relative to other industry participants that may focus on high-volume and low-mix products. For the water quality after CARTIS treatment often surpasses other commonly available methods and sources of potable watertwelve months ended April 3, including bottled water. *** The huge potable water markets around the world rely 2011, on a variety stand-alone basis, XxXxxxx generated net sales of well$332.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $41.0 million. See “Summary Consolidated Historical Financial Data of XxXxxxx” for a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA. As of April 3, 2011, on a stand-known and documented treatment and filtration methods. Most often, these methods only bring partial solutions to water pollution problems. The main methods and processes most commonly in use around the world utilize: * UV lamps, which almost totally destroy bacteria in clear water, are limited to bacteria elimination only, * Active Carbon ("AC") is renowned for the elimination alone basis XxXxxxx had firm backlog of odors, chlorine, heavy metals and pesticides. Since AC does not destroy bacteria, its usage is severely limited by rapid bacterial saturation, which forces frequent filter replacements. Also, water treated with AC is void of bactericidal properties, * Active Carbon with Silver Coating solves the issue of internal bacteria contamination, but its process is severely limited by the risk of silver nitrate pollution, a heavy metal, and a short useful life. In order to prevent silver nitrate pollution, forbidden in most developed countries, the quantity of nitrate coating is kept to a minimum, thereby greatly diminishing its usefulness. * Water Softeners suppress calcium, which is responsible for water hardness and limestone deposits. However these softeners diminish the cleaning properties of water and give it an unpleasant taste. Moreover, softeners facilitate bacteria proliferation. CARTIS incorporates several existing proven methods of water filtration and treatment, while significantly improving on them. CARTIS breakthrough technology creates a permanent bond between pure silver and active carbon, thereby joining one of the best bactericidal agent with a time tested pollution screener. This technology delivers potable water without harming the delicate balance of minerals naturally present in water. The CARTIS showcase product currently on the market is the Potable Water System PWS 300. The PWS 300 provides potable water void of limestone to households, hospitals, schools, hotels, without the use of chlorine. Water treated by CARTIS keeps destroying bacteria, even after treatment. The PWS 300 incorporates the following elements: * One coarse filter for large impurities, then downstream, * One Xxxxxxxx UV lamp with an output of 25,000 millijoules that corresponds to European standards and surpasses US standards for potable water. The lamp's output is sufficient to eliminate bacteria up to 99% in clear water, then downstream, * One CARTIS cartridge. The cartridge contains a powder composed of pure silver 99.9999 (6N) bonded by intermolecular links to active carbon. The bond is performed in radio frequency, low-pressure cold plasma reactors. The CARTIS process is patented worldwide. The bonding of silver and active carbon ensures bacteria destruction during and after treatment, while eliminating the problem of silver nitrates pollution. Chlorine, a harmful chemical, is the only competing product to CARTIS with similar conservation properties of bacteria destruction after treatment. Private and Confidential$241.6 million.
