7. Current Workload Terracon's backlog projections are based upon a few large projects that can be projected over a period of a year. However, the majority of our projects are small to medium sized, consisting of individual projects valued at less than $10,000 with durations less than two months. Terracon's ability to quickly expand our capacity relies on two practices that provide significant competitive advantages for the company.

• First, we have built-in systems to share work between all of our offices. This is accomplished by rewarding both the office supporting projects and the office requesting help, creating a culture that supports a seamless sharing of employees.

• Second, in short-term periods of heavy workload, our employees are willing to work overtime hours. Terracon offers pay incentives to professional employees for working overtime hours, making it possible to expand our capacity.

Normally, Terracon operates at a capacity represented by approximately 65 percent chargeability on a company-wide basis. With our structure and company philosophy of sharing available resources, we have the ability to increase our capacity to approximately 80 percent chargeability. Based on Terracon's current workload and backlog, we project continuing at approximately 65 percent chargeability through the second quarter of the year.

8. Proposed Schedule Each of the projects described in prior sections represent examples of Terracon's performance on projects where meeting demanding budgets and schedules were of significant concern to the client. Our goal is to meet or exceed the level of services needed to properly design and construct projects in a timely manner and within the budgetary constraints of the project. The variety of projects that we have been involved in allows us to respond quickly and design and implement cost effective solutions. The representative projects described previously in this submittal were all performed under demanding schedules and tight budgets.

Terracon is sensitive to the fact that time of year, project phasing, and design complexities are all factors that can influence project costs. We have a long track record of not only completing projects within budget, but also of finding innovative ways to reduce the overall project costs for the client. All of the team members have a high percentage of repeat business, a good indicator of our ability to deliver on-time and on-budget services.

Our current workload is consistent with our normal operations and will in no way hinder our performance on this project. We have capacity to handle this project.

9. Technology

Construction Materials Engineering Laboratory Management System (CMELMS™)

In order to provide our clients with real-time field and laboratory data management and reporting, Terracon developed and maintains an automated application that we call CMELMS™. The acronym stands for Construction Materials Engineering Laboratory Management System. Having developed the system ourselves allows us to customize the application as needed to meet the needs of our clients and project demands.

CMELMS™ is a complete and comprehensive field and laboratory data and report tracking, management, and distribution system used by Terracon. The application can manage an unlimited number of reports and data for ease of reporting and documentation purposes. Features in the application include accessing and distributing test results and field observation reports by the push of a button.

Inspection and Test Data Collection, Report Preparation, and Distribution Once construction is underway, all field technicians and inspectors are responsible to provide a daily report identifying what work was found to be in compliance with the project specifications and drawings and report any non-conformances.

Terracon's Project Manager maintains non-conformance logs and lists for all testing and inspection services performed. The list will be maintained digitally in our CMELMS™ application and can be updated and e-mailed or printed at any time. We will include the non-conformance log in our distribution to the Project Team and will provide them at any other time as requested.

12. Litigation or Arbitration Statement for Last Five (5) Years Terracon is a large engineering firm specializing primarily in geotechnical, environmental, and construction materials testing and we perform tens of thousands of projects nationwide. Given the large volume of projects we perform annually, we are subject to periodic claims and litigation. The number of claims received annually is a very small percentage of the overall number of projects performed, well less than 0.5% of the total.

Due to the confidentiality and sensitivity of claim information, Terracon does not provide specific information on individual claims or litigation. If you have any specific questions or concerns about this disclosure, feel free to contact us to discuss further.

13. Conflict of Interest Terracon is unaware of any history or present condition that would create a conflict of interest in the design and/or construction of the project.
