Aerospace Workers ("IAMAW") Local #862 which represents approximately one-third
of the workforce at Registrant's Wisconsin facility rejected the tentative

the date of this filing, the Registrant continues to operate its Wisconsin
facility with its other hourly and salary workforce while it seeks a resolution
of the contract issues with the IAMAW. At this time the Registrant cannot
predict the duration of the IAMAW work stoppage or whether it will have a
material impact on the financial results of the Registrant.
