The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act") provides a

signing on in the near future, the beginning of the engineering and construction
phases of our projects, helping animal feeding operations meet pollution
standards, the estimated market potential for this type of pollution control our
expectation and other statements contained therein regarding matters that are
not historical facts are forward looking statements as such term is defined in
the Act. Because such statements involve risks and uncertainties, actual results
may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
include, but are not limited to, uncertainties involving development stage
companies, financing requirements and uncertainties, difficulties involved in

relating to managing and integrating acquired businesses, volatile and
unpredictable developments (including plant outages and repair requirements),
the difficulty of estimating construction, development, repair and maintenance
costs and timeframes, the uncertainties involved in estimating insurance and
implied warranty recoveries, if any, the inability to predict the course or
outcome of any negotiations with parties involved with POWR's or Microgy's
projects, uncertainties relating to general economic and industry conditions,
the amount and rate of growth in expenses, uncertainties relating to government
