sale, installation and support of heavy machinery and electro-mechanical products such as large industrial combustion systems, compact agricultural tractors and implements, hot mix asphalt plants for road-building, thermal fluid heat systems, soil
decontaminations plants, synthetic fuel production plants, sugar production plants, etc. </I></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%;padding-bottom:0px;"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>b.
Gencor&#146;s public image and presentation is, and has always been, that of a respected manufacturer of the highest quality, and heaviest-built machinery, and is recognized as the leading house on technology in this industry. (Refer to documents

the attention of Kevin Kuhar, Accountant, SEC) </FONT></I></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>c. Gencor&#146;s Management at all levels - including the CEO and
the President - are all highly technical and inventive and manufacturing persons. The CEO is also the founder with over 56 years in the industry and is regarded nationally as a leading innovator, and has been inducted into the Industry&#146;s Hall
of Fame. The President and all Vice Presidents of Gencor, as well as all five of the six members of the Board of Directors have been connected with this, the road-building machinery and construction equipment and materials industry, for most of
their lifetimes. We do not have any investment/financial associates on board. </I></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>d. An analysis of Gencor&#146;s assets
shows that due to the down-turn of the economy, and our industry, and the serious reduction in manufacturing volume, our collections of receivables, and reductions of inventories have created significant liquidity which for the first time has
enabled Gencor to create an Acquisition Fund. This fund was created for the purpose of funding acquisitions deemed strategically crucial to Gencor. However, underperformance by the targets due to the economic crisis has caused our pursuit of some
very promising targets to be suspended. It is the Company&#146;s intention to pursue such old and new targets as the performance in industry improves. Recently, Gencor has again enlisted the services of &#147;buy-side&#148; investment bankers to
bring to us potential new targets. Accordingly, Gencor&#146;s Investment Policy calls for the investments to be short term and monetizable within 30 days in order to be able to effect a quick transaction, if so required. </I></FONT></P>

recognized world-wide in the marketplace &#150; exclusively as a global designer and manufacturer of primarily heavy, engineered products (Capital Goods). We reiterate our position, as expressed in our response of June&nbsp;3, 2010 to the same issue
raised by the SEC on its letter of May&nbsp;25, 2010, that Gencor is and has been exclusively a manufacturing company throughout its approximately half century of existence under the same current management, and in that period never engaged at
anytime, in any way in investments in securities of any kind as its principal business. In recent years, the Company accumulated cash to expand its operations and market share but due to the global economic downturn it has been unable to implement
this growth plan. </I></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Based on these facts, including the analytical treatment of Gencor vis-&agrave;-vis the traditional
five factors developed in the Tonopah case, it would appear that to classify Gencor as an Investment Company would be a very serious distortion of the purpose of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as well as out of step with the spirit as well as
the letter of the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals decision in the Presto case. </I></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>There is, however, another test on
whether Gencor potentially is, or is not an Investment Company, and that is to be found in Sec. 3(1) (c)&nbsp;of the 1940 Act which states that an issuer to be classed as an &#147;Investment Company&#148; must be invested in securities
&#147;&#133;having a value exceeding 40 percent of the value of such issuer&#146;s total assets (exclusive of Government securities and cash) on an unconsolidated basis.&#148; Gencor meets this test also. Based on Gencor&#146;s last accounted period
of Jan. 31, 2011, its securities holdings, excluding Government securities and cash, were at 35% of total assets. See below: </I></FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

of fiscal 2010 would relate to orders in fiscal 2010 that became sales during fiscal 2010. Since these were lower in fiscal 2010, revenues during this period were also lower than in 2009 and thus the reduced accounts receivable and costs and
estimated earnings in excess of billings. The backlog as of September&nbsp;30, 2010, relates to orders in fiscal 2010 that ultimately would become sales in fiscal 2011. Backlog at September&nbsp;30, 2010 did not impact fiscal 2010 revenues but did
result in an increase in customer deposits at September&nbsp;30, 2010 as a portion of the orders in backlog would have required deposits be made prior to beginning production &#150; higher backlog would typically result in higher deposits.

circumstances warrant different treatment regarding inventory obsolescence, the cost basis of inventories three to four years old are reduced by 50% while the cost basis of inventories four to five years old are reduced by 75% and the cost basis of
inventories greater than five years old are reduced to zero. </I></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><U>Impairments, page 31 </U></B></FONT></P>

arising from purchases and sales of Company common stock by the defendants to the suit seeking disgorgement of alleged short-swing profits per section 16(b) of the SEC Act of 1934, as amended 15 U.S.C 78 p(6). No wrongdoing or liability was admitted

equity section of the balance sheet. The Company believes this is a reasonable and fair accounting of the transaction. The Company did not view the settlement as &#147;resulting from transactions in the entity&#146;s own capital stock&#148; (ASC
