Independent Auditor's Report

Board of Directors
Lunda Construction Company
Black River Falls, Wisconsin

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Lunda Construction Company as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lunda Construction Company as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the Years Ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008

Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principal Business Activity

Lunda Construction Company (the “Company”) derives substantially all of its revenues from various city and state governments.

The Company has two major types of construction activity: bridge and industrial. The bridge division deals primarily with constructing bridges, driving piling, and other  miscellaneous concrete work. The industrial division deals primarily with dams, millwright construction, rigging, and industrial construction.

In accordance with normal practice in the construction industry, the Company includes  asset and liability accounts relating to construction contracts in current assets and  liabilities even when such amounts are realizable or payable over a period in excess of one year.

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of the accompanying financial statements in conformity with accounting  principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires  management to make certain estimates and assumptions that directly affect the results of  reported assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of  three months or less when purchased, except those held in escrow and those held in the marketable securities portfolio, to be cash equivalents.

Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Marketable Securities

The Company's marketable securities consist of money market, equity, and debt securities that have a readily determinable fair market value.  Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determination at each balance sheet date.  Marketable securities are recorded at fair value and are evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment at each balance sheet date.

Since the Company does not intend to sell these securities in the near term, they are classified as "available for sale" and, accordingly, are carried at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component within the stockholders' equity section of the balance sheet.  Realized gains and losses on all marketable securities are determined by specific identification and are charged or credited to current earnings.

Contracts Receivable

Contracts receivable are based on contracted prices and are stated at the amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding at year-end.  Based on management's assessment of the credit history with customers having outstanding balances and current relationships with them, it has concluded that realization losses on balances outstanding at year-end will be immaterial.

Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Revenue and Cost Recognition

Contract revenue from fixed-price contracts is recorded on the percentage-of-completion  method measured by the percentage of costs to date to total estimated costs.  Profits are recognized when progress is sufficient to permit reasonable estimates of the profit upon completion.  Claims for additional contract revenue are recognized when resolved. Revisions in contract revenue and cost estimates are reflected in the accounting period when known.  Because of inherent uncertainties in estimating revenue and costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change within the near term. Estimate revisions to an uncompleted contract at December 31, 2009, resulted in significant revisions to estimated profit on the contract during 2010.  The effect of the change in profit estimate on this contract was to increase 2010 net income by approximately $11,800,000.

Contract costs include all direct labor, material, and subcontract costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, equipment costs, supplies, and tools.  General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for significant estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined.

The asset "cost and estimated earnings in excess of billings," represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed.  The liability, "billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings," represents billings in excess of revenues recognized.

Property, Equipment, and Depreciation

Property and equipment are valued at cost.  Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred.  Gains or losses on disposition of property and equipment are reflected in income.  Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes, based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:  buildings (10 to 25 years), construction equipment (3 to 8 years), and office equipment (3 to 5 years).

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets to be held and used are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable.  When required, impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the excess of the asset's carrying amount over the fair value of the asset.  Certain long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.  No impairment loss was recognized in 2010, 2009, or 2008.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be taxed under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code and comparable state regulations.  Under these provisions, the Company does not pay federal or state corporate income taxes on its taxable income (nor is it allowed a net operating loss carryback or carryover as a deduction).  Instead, the stockholders report on their personal income tax returns their proportionate share of the Company's taxable income (or loss) and tax credits.  As a result of this election, no income taxes have been recognized in the accompanying financial statements.  The Company has committed to making distributions sufficient to meet stockholders' income tax liabilities generated by the income of the Company.
 
Tax returns filed by the Company remain open to federal and state income tax examination through the statutory time periods.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent events have been evaluated through April 1, 2011, except for the events in Note 16, which have been evaluated through August 23, 2011.

Note 4
Fair Value Measurements

GAAP describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value (the fair value hierarchy).  The level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input significant to the fair value measurement of that asset or liability.

Following is a brief description of each level of the fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 - Fair value measurement is based on quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - Fair value measurement is based on (1) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, (2) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or (3) valuation models and methodologies for which all significant assumptions are or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 - Fair value measurement is based on valuation models and methodologies that incorporate at least one significant assumption that cannot be corroborated by observable market data.  Level 3 measurements reflect the Company's estimates about assumptions market participants would use in measuring fair value of the asset or liability.

Some assets and liabilities, such as marketable securities, are measured at fair value on a recurring basis under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company does not have any significant liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.  Other assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Note 4
Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

Following is a description of the valuation methodology used for each asset measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis, as well as the classification of the asset within the fair value hierarchy.

Marketable Securities Available for Sale - Investments are classified as Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.  Level 1 investments include marketable securities traded on a national exchange and are based on the quoted price of the security.  Level 2 investments include U.S. government and agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, corporate debt securities, and mortgage- related securities.  The fair value of these investments is obtained from an independent pricing service and is based on recent sales of similar securities and other observable market data.  There were no Level 3 investments held by the Company at December 31, 2010 or 2009.

Short-Term Borrowing Arrangements

The Company has a line of credit available for short-term borrowing totaling $8,000,000 at the prime rate at the time of the borrowing.  The line of credit is due on demand.  At December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no amounts borrowed against the line of credit.

Note 8
Retirement Plans

The Company has a 401(k) profit sharing plan for the benefit of its employees.  Participants, substantially all nonunion employees, can elect to contribute up to 50% of their eligible compensation.  The Company contributes 50% of a participant's contribution not in excess of 6% of eligible compensation.  The Company may also contribute an additional discretionary amount to be allocated to the participants in proportion to each eligible employee's compensation.

Company contributions to the 401(k) plan, exclusive of trustee fees, approximated $880,000, $763,000, and $635,000 for 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.

Self-Insurance

In March 2009, after a one-year policy of fully insured health care coverage, the Company returned to self-insuring certain nonunion employees.  The Company bought reinsurance to cover catastrophic individual claims over $40,000.  Unreported claims outstanding at December 31, 2010 and 2009, are not expected to be significant; therefore, no provision has been made in the financial statements for such costs.

The Company self-insures for workers' compensation in Minnesota and Wisconsin.  The Company buys reinsurance to cover individual claims over $250,000.  The Company accrues for known claims and potential unknown claims which are based on industry historic factors provided by the insurance company.

At December 31, 2010, pledged collateral, in the amount of $1,476,655, was deposited with an insurance company for workers' compensation claims.  Funds are held in a Federated Prime Cash Obligations money market account and are accounted for as prepaid expenses and other on the balance sheet.

Under the terms of a stock transfer agreement, the Company is obligated to purchase the outstanding stock of a stockholder upon occurrence of death, bankruptcy, disability, or other separation from service.  In addition, the Company has the right of first refusal should the stockholder desire to sell Company stock.  The purchase price is established by stockholders and the Company.

Note 14
Commitment

As the prime contractor on many of its construction projects, the Company is responsible for the satisfactory performance by the subcontractors and material suppliers on those projects. Occasionally, the Company is subject to callbacks or claims by owners due to noncompliant work of the subcontractors or material suppliers.  During 2009, an unforeseen painting flaw was discovered in one of the bridge contracts completed by the Company in 2009. Management has recorded a $6 million accrued expense and charge to operations in the 2009 financial statements as an estimate of the cost to repaint the erected bridge. The accrual is still outstanding at December 31, 2010.

Note 15
Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and contracts receivable.  The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with quality financial institutions.  Concentrations of credit risk with respect to contracts receivable are limited due to the Company's significant contracts receivable being from the Departments of Transportation of the states of Wisconsin and Minnesota.
