ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On April 17, 2007, we were granted a Modification of Contract Agreement with the United States Marine Corps to provide sustainment Integrated Logistics Support for the U.S. Marine Corp’s Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle program for consideration of approximately $6.9 million.

Under the terms of the contract, Force Dynamics, LLC will supply support including deployment blocks, maintenance workshop blocks, field service representatives and operator and maintenance training in connection with previous vehicle contracts.

This  report  may  contain  forward-looking  statements  that  involve risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, statements  concerning  our  business  and possible or assumed future results of operations.  We  generally  use  words  such  as  “believe,”  “may,” “could,” “will,”  “intend,”  “expect,”  “anticipate,”  “plan,” and similar expressions to identify  forward-looking  statements.  You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.  Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the  forward-looking  statements  for  many  reasons  including:  our ability to continue  as  a  going  concern,  adverse  economic changes affecting markets we serve;  competition  in  our  markets  and industry segments; our timing and the profitability  of  entering  new  markets; greater than expected costs, customer acceptance  of  our  products  or difficulties related to our integration of the businesses  we may acquire; and other risks and uncertainties as may be detailed from  time  to  time  in  our  public announcements and SEC filings. Although we believe  the  expectations  reflected  in  the  forward-looking  statements  are reasonable,  they  relate  only to events as of the date on which the statements are  made,  and  our  future  results,  levels  of  activity,  performance  or achievements may not meet these expectations.  We do not intend to update any of the  forward-looking statements after the date of this document to conform these statements  to  actual  results  or  to  changes  in our expectations, except as required  by  law.
