services of leak repair, hot tapping, fugitive emissions control, field machining, technical bolting and field valve repair. Each division has goodwill relating to past acquisitions and we assess goodwill for impairment at the lower TCM and TMS

impairment test as of May&nbsp;31st of each fiscal year aligns with our annual budget process which is typically completed during the fourth quarter of each year. In addition, performing our annual goodwill impairment test as of this date allows for
a thorough consideration of the valuations of our business units subsequent to the completion of our annual budget process but prior to our financial year end reporting date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The annual impairment test for goodwill is a two-step process that involves comparing the estimated fair value of each business unit to the unit&#146;s carrying value, including goodwill. If the fair
value of a business unit exceeds its carrying amount, the goodwill of the business unit is not considered impaired; therefore, the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a business unit exceeds its fair value,
we would then perform a second step to the goodwill impairment test to measure the amount of goodwill impairment loss to be recorded. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

revenues and expenses over a four year period plus a terminal value period (the income approach). The income approach estimates fair value by discounting each reporting unit&#146;s estimated

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Projected growth rates, and other market inputs to our impairment test models such as the discount rate, are sensitive to the risk of
future variances due to market conditions as well as business unit execution risks. Consequently, if future results fall below our forward looking projections for an extended period of time, the results of future impairment tests could indicate an
impairment. Although we believe the cash flow projections in our income approach make reasonable assumptions about our business, a significant increase in competition or reduction in our competitive capabilities could have a significant adverse
impact on our ability to retain market share and thus on the projected margins included in the income approach used to value our reporting units. We periodically review our projected growth rates and other market inputs used in our impairment test
models as well as changes in our business and other factors that could represent indicators of impairment. Subsequent to our May&nbsp;31, 2010 annual impairment test, no such indicators of impairment were identified. </FONT></P>

May&nbsp;31, 2010, the change in goodwill is attributable to foreign currency exchange rates and their effect on goodwill in foreign subsidiaries of both our divisions. For the twelve months ended May&nbsp;31, 2009, the primary change in goodwill is
attributable to foreign currency exchange rates and their effect on goodwill of foreign subsidiaries of both our divisions, purchase price adjustments related to resolution of tax contingencies in the TCM division and the completion of intangible
valuations in the TMS division. Based upon results of the annual impairment testing there have been no impairments of goodwill in any periods presented. A summary of goodwill, attributed to each of our divisions, as of May&nbsp;31, 2010 and 2009, is

and their participation in the Credit Facility was not replaced, we would still be able to renew the existing debt upon its maturity. Based upon discussions with the members of our banking syndicate, we anticipate no problem renewing the existing
