SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

The selling holders are offering CODES and shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the CODES under this prospectus supplement pursuant to existing registration rights conferred by the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of July 29, 2005 among L-3 Holdings, the Guarantors named therein and Lehman Brothers Inc., Bear, Stearns & Co., Inc., Credit Suisse First Boston LLC and Banc of America Securities LLC, as initial purchasers. The following table sets forth information, as of March 3, 2006, with respect to the selling holders and the principal amounts of CODES and number of shares of common stock into which the CODES are convertible beneficially owned by each selling holder that may be offered under this prospectus supplement and related prospectus. The information is based on information provided by or on behalf of the selling holders.

The selling holders may offer all, some or none of the CODES or common stock into which the CODES are convertible. Because the selling holders may offer all or some portion of the CODES or the common stock, no estimate can be given as to the amount of the CODES or the common stock that will be held by the selling holders upon termination of any sales. In addition, the selling holders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their CODES in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or pursuant to our Registration Statement on Form S-3 and amendments or supplements thereto.

Selling holders, including their transferees, pledgees or donees or their successors, may from time to time offer and sell pursuant to this prospectus supplement and related prospectus any or all of the CODES and common stock into which the CODES are convertible. Identification of any additional selling holders, if any, who exercise their registration rights, pursuant to the registration rights agreement mentioned above, will be made in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Information about the selling holders may change over time. Any changed information will be set forth in prospectus supplements or post-effective amendments. From time to time, additional information concerning ownership of the CODES and the underlying stock may rest with holders of the CODES or the common stock not named in the table below and of whom we are unaware.

While we can elect, upon conversion of each CODES, to deliver to the converting holder cash or cash and shares of our common stock, the number of shares of common stock shown in the table below assumes conversion of the full amount of CODES held by such holder at the initial conversion rate of 9.7741 shares per $1,000 principal amount of CODES. This conversion rate is subject to certain adjustments. Accordingly, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the securities may increase or decrease from time to time. Under the terms of the indenture, fractional shares will not be issued upon conversion of the CODES. Cash will be paid instead of fractional shares, if any.
