The following unaudited pro forma statements give effect to the acquisition of Little Giant Pump Company (the “Company”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tecumseh Products Company (the “Parent”), by Franklin Electric Co., Inc. on April 21, 2006 using the purchase method of accounting, after giving effect to the pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited and unaudited historical consolidated financial statements and notes of Franklin Electric Co., Inc. and Little Giant, as previously filed on Franklin Electric’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 and Franklin Electric’s Current Report on Form 8-K/A, respectively.

The pro forma adjustments are based on the information and assumptions available at the time of the acquisition. The purchase price has been allocated on a preliminary basis, with the excess cost allocated to goodwill. These allocations are subject to change and will be complete pending a final fair value analysis of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. These unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are prepared for informational purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of actual results or financial position that would have been achieved had the acquisition of Little Giant been consummated on the dates indicated and are not necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial position of the consolidated companies.

FRANKLIN ELECTRIC CO., INC.
NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.     Basis of Pro Forma Presentation
 
On April 21, 2006, Franklin Electric Co., Inc. completed the acquisition of Little Giant Pump Company, formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tecumseh Products Company.  The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 and March 31, 2006 give effect to the acquisition of Little Giant Pump Company as if it had occurred on January 1, 2005. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet as of March 31, 2006 is as if the acquisition occurred on March 31, 2006.  The unaudited pro forma information is based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Franklin Electric and Little Giant Pump Company, as described in the pro forma financial statements, under the purchase method of accounting and accordingly, the respective assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recorded at their fair market value and consolidated into the net assets of Franklin Electric.
 
A summary of the preliminary purchase price allocation for the acquisition, as if the purchase occurred on March 31, 2006, is as follows:
 
(In thousands)
     
        
Purchase Price:
       
Initial purchase price paid
 
$
120,801
 
Transaction costs paid and accrued
   
2,044
 
Total estimated purchase consideration
 
$
122,845
 
         
Preliminary allocation of purchase price:
     
Net working capital excluding cash
 
$
31,757
 
Property and equipment
   
9,625
 
Goodwill and other long-lived assets
   
81,463
 
Purchase price
 
$
122,845
 
 
Based upon the preliminary purchase price allocation, the total purchase price exceeded the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed when adjusted to fair market value and resulted in goodwill in the pro forma combined condensed financial information of approximately $81,500. These allocations are subject to change, pending post-closing adjustments, and will be considered complete upon a final fair value analysis of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Thereafter, the adjusted purchase price will be assigned to identifiable tangible and intangible assets. Identifiable tangible assets will be depreciated over their determined useful life. In accordance with SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, the identifiable intangible assets will be amortized over their useful life, based on a pattern of economic benefit or consumption.

2.     Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Balance Sheet
 
The following adjustments were applied to the Pro Forma Balance Sheet:
 
 
(In thousands)
First Quarter Ended 2006
(a)
Increase cash for amount borrowed under long-term debt of $70,000 less $122,845 in Little Giant purchase consideration and the Company’s cash balance of $217.
 
Record additional Company long-term debt.
($53,062)
 
 
 
$70,000
(b)
Eliminate historic Little Giant Pump Company Shareholder’s Equity, and net inter-company receivables.
($1)
($8,753)
($36,618)
($11,128)
(c)
Eliminate the allocated Little Giant Pump Company post retiree medical benefits, which were administered by the Parent company. With the subsequent acquisition of Little Giant Pump Company by Franklin Electric Co., Inc (see Note 6) the liability recognized by the Parent company will no longer be allocated to the Company.
($17,034)
(d)
Adjust to record Little Giant Pump Company goodwill for excess of purchase price over the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired less the liabilities assumed in accordance with SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and other Intangible Assets”.
Eliminate the existing Company goodwill.
$81,463
 
 
 
($5,104)
(e)
Eliminate deferred income taxes
($4,928)
($353)

3.     Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Statement of Income
 
The following adjustments were applied to the Pro Forma Statement of Income:
 
 
 
(In thousands)
Year Ended
December 31, 2005
First Quarter Ended
2006
(a)  
Adjust Franklin Electric interest expense to reflect additional Franklin Electric long-term debt associated with the acquisition of Little Giant Pump Company. The offset to this expense is recorded as accrued liabilities in the balance sheet. The average interest rate applied is 5.3 %.
($6,113)
($1,406)
 
 
(b)
Adjust pro forma income taxes at the effective income tax rate of Franklin Electric for the tax effect of net changes in the results of operations.  The offset to this expense is recorded as income taxes in the balance sheet.
($2,398)
($494)

4.  
If interest rates for the portion of the Company’s long-term debt based on variable rates were to change 1/8 percent for the year ended December 31, 2005 and for the first quarter ended 2006, interest expense would have changed $144 and $33, respectively.
