Schedule 6.7

Litigation

          In January, 2008 we were served in a lawsuit entitled Olga Mata, Individually as Representative of the Estate of Elpido Mata et al. vs. Energy Absorption Systems, Inc., Quixote Transportation Safety, Inc., William Brothers Construction, Keller Crash Cushions d/b/a Contractors Barricade Service, J.I.T. Distributing Inc. and Gustavo Reyes d/b/a Cerrito Trucking, State of Texas, District Court of Brazoria County, No. 44361. This case involves a tractor-trailer collision with a crash cushion. The plaintiffs allege various theories of liability against all defendants, including negligence, misrepresentations and breach of warranty. We have tendered the case to our insurance carrier and have answered the complaint. In September the judge granted our motion for summary judgment and Quixote Transportation Safety, Inc., Energy Absorption Systems, Inc. and Keller Crash Cushions (our distributor) are now dismissed on all causes of action. Plaintiff may appeal.
