### For immediate release – July 15, 2010

Paulus Precision Machine announced that it has engaged E2 consultant Shoptech to perform on-site training and pre-assessment audit services in connection with PPM’s implementation of its Quality Management System. The audit will assess its Quality Manual, Operating Procedures and Internal Audit Programs in order to determine readiness for ISO certification.

According to Troy Paulus, VP of Operations, PPM personnel will attend requisite training in August as the registration target date approaches. “We have been moving ahead of schedule on implementation of our machining set up process improvements and as a result, have been able to dedicate more time to formalizing our quality processes and documentation. The production improvements have really helped us meet our customers need for rapid delivery and short order quantities during this turndown.”

PPM will be seeking its ISO9001:2008 and AS9100 certifications for the third quarter 2010. Secondary 13485 Medical Quality certification will follow based on its registrars’ recommendations.

### For immediate release – June 15, 2010

Paulus Precision Machine, Inc. announced that it will be introducing a line of Aftermarket Replacement Motorcycle Wheels in response to demand from American Ironhorse owners and others for help in obtaining custom spares in Fall 2010.

According to Rick Paulus, fixturing and design for the product line will be ready by September. A PPM website is in the works to market and automate order taking for the program. “The demand for spares for many of the now defunct custom motorcycle manufacturers is not being met. As a first tier manufacturer in the past, the groundwork was already in place.

The new designs will mimic the originals and are being reengineered to be tougher than the original specifications. Our goal is to capture the spirit of the original designs while overcoming some of the production inefficiencies”. Matched wheel sets and rear pulleys will be offered.

Preproduction is set for late summer 2010 and marketing to Resellers and the public will start at that time.

Paulus Precision Machine, Inc. announced that it is implementing a Quality Management System in order to formalize its ongoing commitment to improvement and customer satisfaction.

According to Rick Paulus, the employees of Paulus Precision Machine, Inc. are committed to manufacturing excellence and want to be recognized as a premier machining services provider. “We have always sought a zero fault production performance for our customers and it is now time to take the company to the next level.” The company is taking on more of a role in providing premium services to the local aerospace and defense industries and is being pressured to become a first tier high volume producer. In spite of the recent downturn for many, PPM has enjoyed an uptick in demand. The quality systems and procedures are working well for the customer and PPM. We must grow within the quality framework now to meet their requirements.

PPM will be implementing new ERP systems that integrate QMS reporting and audit capabilities and will seek certification in the second half of 2010. Stress testing of internal controls and procedures will dictate when the certification will be formally sought.

PPM is working with E2 ERP representatives and several of its customers to reach this goal.
