We believe the combined entity will be recognized as the leading private provider of tactical air support services due to a number of factors including its existing contracts, the likelihood of capturing new multi-million dollar contracts, its growing fleet of military aircraft, and having the most experienced, capable, and prestigious management team in the tactical aviation space. We expect strong revenue growth and new contracts in 2011 leading to the opportunity to move to a more liquid stock exchange giving the Company increased exposure to retail and institutional investors."
