NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2007

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Accounting Policies -

Nature of Operations

James Construction Group, L.L.C. (the Company), engages in highway, industrial and environmental construction, primarily in Louisiana, Texas and Florida. A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows.

Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments, with maturities less than three months, as cash equivalents.

Recognition of Income on Construction Contracts

The Company uses the percentage of completion method for recognizing profits on incomplete contracts. Estimates of percentage of completion are based on costs incurred to date as a percentage of the latest estimate of total costs anticipated. This method is used because management considers costs incurred to be the best available measure of progress on these contracts. Because of the inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the Company’s estimates of costs and revenues will change in the near future. No profit is recognized on contracts before the percentage of completion exceeds 10%. Provisions for anticipated losses on contracts are made when such losses become apparent.

Operating Cycle and Types of Contracts

The Company performs under fixed-price contracts, cost reimbursable contracts, unit-price, and fixed-price and cost reimbursable contracts modified by incentive and penalty provisions. Each of the contracts may contain components of more than one of the above contract types. The duration of the significant contracts entered into by the Company varies but generally ranges from one to three years. The Company, under the operating cycle concept, includes in current assets and liabilities all contract related items regardless of whether cash will be received or paid within a twelve month period.

Accounts Receivable

Management considers accounts receivable to be fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts is required. If accounts become uncollectible, they are charged directly against earnings when they are determined to be uncollectible. Use of this method does not result in a material difference from the valuation method required by generally accepted accounting principles.

JAMES CONSTRUCTION GROUP, L.L.C.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

DECEMBER 31, 2007

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded in the accounts of the Company at cost. Additions and improvements are capitalized. Ordinary maintenance and repair expenses are charged to income as incurred. The cost of property sold or otherwise disposed of and the accumulated depreciation thereon are eliminated from the property and related accumulated depreciation accounts, and any gain or loss is credited or charged to income. Depreciation is provided at rates based upon estimated useful service lives using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes.

Goodwill

In accordance with FAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill cannot be amortized; however, it must be tested annually for impairment. This impairment test is calculated at the reporting unit level. The goodwill impairment test has two steps. The first, identifies potential impairments by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its book value, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not impaired and the second step is not necessary. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, the second step calculates the possible impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount. If the implied goodwill is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recorded. There was no impairment of goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Included in other assets is $1,913,323 of goodwill, net of $275,344 amortized in prior years.

Uninstalled Contract Materials

Uninstalled contract materials consist of various contract material cost incurred on uncompleted construction projects that have not been installed as of the balance sheet date. Uninstalled contract materials are carried at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

JAMES CONSTRUCTION GROUP, L.L.C.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

DECEMBER 31, 2007

Income Taxes

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company has elected, by consent of its members, to be taxed under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.

As a limited liability company, taxed as an S Corporation, the income or loss of the Company is passed through to its members and taxed at their individual rates for income tax purposes.

Distributions

The Company’s operating agreement has specific provisions related to its distributions. Distributions to its members shall first constitute a “mandatory tax distribution” in an amount equal to its members’ estimated tax liability attributable to the taxable income of the Company, and then constitute “mandatory debt distributions”, as defined in the operating agreement, subject to approval by the Company’s lenders, up to $2,500,000 per year. Additional non-mandatory distributions may be made at the discretion of the Board of Managers, subject to approval by the Company’s lenders. In 2007, the “mandatory tax distributions” and “mandatory debt distributions” totaled $5,799,174 and $2,400,000, respectively. As a result of the Company being taxed as an S Corporation and due to specified provisions in its operating agreement, the Company expects to continue to make distributions in the future for member income taxes and other purposes. Although amounts have not been determined, future distributions could be material to the financial statements.

DECEMBER 31, 2007

Litigation

The Company is a party to various negotiations and legal proceedings arising in the normal course of its business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Note 11 - Contract Guarantees -

The Company is generally required to furnish performance and payment surety bonds to contract owners. The bonds are secured by receivables from bonded contracts.

In the normal course of its business, the Company has also subcontracted to various specialty contractors who may or may not have obtained surety bonds. Management has adequate controls in place to monitor the pre-qualifications and performance of the subcontractors. Therefore, no accruals have been considered necessary by management for financial guarantees related to the non-bonded subcontractors.

Note 12 - Concentration of Credit Risk -

Approximately 48% of revenue earned during the year ended December 31, 2007 was derived from two customers. Accounts receivable related to these customers approximated $14,609,000 at December 31, 2007.

The Company maintains cash accounts with commercial banks, the balances of which may periodically exceed the federally insured amount of $100,000.
