and the promised lower costs of 2G HTS wire compared with 1G HTS wire,&#148; he said. &#147;As we detailed in an announcement in July, we are moving forward rapidly to convert our 2G manufacturing development facility into a pre-pilot production
line that will allow us to deliver more than 10,000 meters of 2G wire to customers during our next fiscal year. Clearly, the market transition from first to second generation wire is accelerating. We are very much on track with our planned

technology for power grid applications (see http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=86422&amp;p=irol-newsArticle_Print&amp;ID=600906&amp;highlight=). SuperVAR synchronous condensers are rotating machines that are utilized to increase the

prototype machine on a continuous basis on its grid, pre-ordered five SuperVAR synchronous condensers from AMSC. After successful operation of the prototype, it is expected that TVA will begin to release the ordered units to production. AMSC

STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although revenues for the SuperMachines business were higher than the company expected for the first fiscal quarter, this business nevertheless experienced a net loss for
the quarter. This was due to two factors: first, higher than anticipated development spending on the advanced SuperVAR prototype, and second, an adjustment to the cost incentive fee on the 36.5-megawatt (MW) U.S. Navy motor program &#150; a cost
plus incentive fee contract &#150; as a result of higher than expected costs from one subcontractor. &#147;Our 36.5-MW ship propulsion motor program with the U.S. Navy is on schedule and the Navy is very pleased with our progress,&#148; said Yurek.
&#147;We still expect that second-quarter revenues for this business will be relatively low due to budget constraints being experienced by the Navy as it approaches its fiscal year-end on September 30. However, the Navy plans to accelerate spending
on our contract for the 36.5-MW motor in the subsequent two quarters to offset the second quarter funding constraints.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

propulsion motor AMSC delivered to the Navy in July 2003. &#147;While CAPS has experienced considerable, unexpected delays in getting its new facility up and running, a U.S. Navy team is at CAPS this week performing the final facility review prior
to its startup. We have been told to expect initiation of load testing of the motor next week, and to expect load and ship simulation testing to continue into the fall. It is then expected that the Navy will ship the motor to the Naval Surface
Warfare Center in Philadelphia for special acoustic testing through the winter of 2005. The Navy will then define appropriate further land-based and at-sea testing to meet its requirements for advanced ship propulsion systems.&#148; </FONT></P>
