O. Summary

     In general, the production facilities as well as testing facilities are found
     suitable for the production of buttwelding fitting (to ASME B16.9-2003), and
     the size that they can manufacture as following:

     Elbow (seamless): ½“ -36“
     Elbow (welded): 16“-56“ (Auto-welding machine can apply for 96“ )
     Tee (welded):   24“-56“
     Reducer:        16“-96“

     But one point must be mentioned: the area of workshop is too small, and
     some of pressure equipment and welding machine and some moulds were
     placed in the oper air, and they had not some necessary maintenance.

     And for the quality control system of ISO 9001:2000, though the factory had
     gotten the ISO9001: 2000 certificate from the CQM, and it still was found
     some non-condormities, and the factory promised that they would improve it

     Regarding to the traceability, from the raw material to cut to form to weld to
     product, it was found sufficient.

The Shengtian and Huoda company both belonged to Mr. HuoDa’s company,
and they had the same office adress. On Mar 19, 2007, the Shengtian company
was logged out. Before this the main work of Shengtian is export all kinds of
fittings, and Huoda is manufacture all kinds of fittings. And Huoda company did not
manufacure any flanges.

And Xin Xiang Forging Co., Ltd is a flanges-manufactured company, it is located in
Shanxi Province, China, and it is about 1000KM away from Huoda company.

Before logging out, Shengtian company purchase some flanges from Xin Xiang
for his other foreign clients.
