                                  THE OFFERING

GENERAL

          The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part relates
to the sale of shares of our common stock issuable to Laurus Master Fund, Ltd.
("Laurus"). Specifically, the shares of our common stock included in this
offering consist of:

     -    1,204,820 shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the
          convertible minimum borrowing note, issued to Laurus with a conversion
          price of $1.66 per share;

     -    1,401,971 shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the
          convertible term note, issued to Laurus with a conversion price of
          $1.66 per share; and

     -    650,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of an
          option, issued to Laurus with an exercise price of $0.01 per share.

          On May 17, 2005, Laurus entered into a securities purchase agreement
(the "Securities Purchase Agreement") and a security agreement (the "Loan
Agreement", and together with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the
"Agreements") with us pursuant to which Laurus may convert, subject to certain
limitations, the term loan and the revolving loans made thereunder into our
common stock at Laurus' option any time up to maturity at a conversion price of
$1.66 per share. Further pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, we
agreed to issue Laurus the option to purchase 650,000 shares of our common stock
at an exercise price of $0.01 per share.

          On December 9, 2005, we entered into an Omnibus Amendment with Laurus
amending the term "Fixed Conversion Price" with respect to the convertible
minimum borrowing note. The term "Fixed Conversion Price," with respect solely
to the convertible minimum borrowing note, was amended as follows:

               "The initial Fixed Conversion Price means $1.66; provided,
               however, that in respect of the first $150,000 of aggregate
               principal amount (the "Initial Converted Amount") of the Term
               Note converted into shares of our common stock, the Fixed
               Conversion Price in respect of such Initial Converted Amount (and
               the interest and fees associated therewith to the extent
               converted) shall be equal to $0.55."

          Accordingly, on December 9, 2005, 277,727 shares of our common stock
were issued to Laurus in connection with such conversion of principal under the
convertible minimum borrowing note.

          Had Laurus exercised its conversion rights and option rights in full
on August 10, 2006 it would have received 3,256,791 shares of our common stock
representing 43% of our outstanding shares of common stock, and been able to
offer for resale a total of 3,256,791 shares of our common stock. Under the
terms of the Agreements, the number of shares to be obtained by Laurus upon
exercise of the conversion rights and option rights held by Laurus cannot exceed
the number of shares that, when combined with all other shares of common stock
and securities then owned by Laurus, would result in Laurus owning more than
4.99% (212,454 shares) of our outstanding common stock at any given point of
time (or 19.99%, or 851,094 shares, in the event that such limitation is
suspended upon the occurrence of an "event of default" as defined under the
Agreements or any other related agreements). See "Recently Issued Securities" on
page 10.

          We received net proceeds at the closing in the amount of
$1,212,526.90, after extinguishing indebtedness owed to Comerica Bank
("Comerica") and The HillStreet Fund II, L.P. ("HillStreet") and deducting
certain legal fees and expenses associated with the Laurus transactions. We will
not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares offered by Laurus.
We will receive a maximum of approximately $6,500 from the exercise of the
option rights, assuming all of the options are exercised for cash and in full,
of which there can be no assurance. Any proceeds received by us in connection
with the exercise of the option rights will be used for working capital and
general corporate purposes.

          Neither Laurus nor any of its officers, directors or affiliates is an
officer, director or affiliate of us, and none of our officers or directors are
related to, or, except in connection with the revolving credit facility, has any
business relationship with, Laurus.

          The conversion and exercise prices for the conversion and option
rights issued by us were a function of the market price for our common stock at
or about the time each transaction was consummated, computed on the basis of the
average high and low prices per share of our common stock on the American Stock
Exchange for the ten days ending on May 16, 2005, as quoted on Bloomberg, and
arms length negotiations with Laurus.


                                       1


          The conversion rights and option rights are exercisable at any time
until the maturity date of the term loan and revolving loans. Adjustments in the
price and number of common shares issued to Laurus pursuant to the conversion
rights and option rights may be made under any of the following circumstances:

     -    if we, at any time while the conversion rights and option rights are
          unexpired and not exercised in full, by reclassification or otherwise,
          change the common stock into the same or a different number of
          securities of any class or classes;

     -    if we, at any time while the conversion rights and option rights are
          unexpired and not exercised in full, subdivide outstanding shares of
          our common stock into a greater number of shares;

     -    if we, at any time while the conversion rights and option rights are
          unexpired and not exercised in full, combine outstanding shares of our
          common stock into a smaller number of shares of common stock; and

     -    if we, at any time while the conversion rights and option rights are
          unexpired and not exercised in full, issue any shares of our common
          stock or securities convertible into common stock to a person other
          than Laurus (except as listed in the bullet points above or pursuant
          to options that may be issued under any employee incentive stock
          option and/or any qualified stock option plan adopted by us).

          In addition, the exercise price of each of the conversion rights and
option rights shall be adjusted for any dilutive issuances whereby the exercise
price shall be reduced to the weighted average per share offering price of such
dilutive issuance.

          On July 7, 2005, we received approval from the American Stock Exchange
for listing of an additional 754,492 shares of our common stock, such shares
representing the maximum number of shares of our common stock currently issuable
to Laurus. We will seek American Stock Exchange approval for the balance of
shares issuable in connection with the Agreements at an appropriate time in the
future.

Right of First Refusal

          Prior to the incurrence of any additional indebtedness convertible
into common stock, and/or the sale or issuance of any convertible equity
interests by us, Laurus shall have a right of first refusal with regard to
providing such financing on similar terms. Such right of first refusal shall be
implemented in accordance with the Agreements.

Registration Rights

          In connection with the Agreements, we entered into a Registration
Rights Agreement with Laurus on May 17, 2005 (the "Registration Rights
Agreement") pursuant to which we agreed to provide Laurus with registration
rights for their shares of our common stock. Under the terms of the Registration
Rights Agreement, we are obligated to file an additional registration statement
registering the resale of shares of the common stock issuable upon the exercise
of conversion rights granted pursuant to an additional minimum borrowing note
evidencing an aggregate principal amount of up to $2,000,000 of loans made
pursuant to an additional minimum borrowing note. If the registration statement
is not filed within 60 days following the date of the funding of such additional
tranches of loans, or declared effective within 60 days thereafter, or if the
registration is suspended other than as permitted in the Registration Rights
Agreement, we are obligated to pay Laurus certain fees and certain obligations
may be deemed to be in default.

4.99% Limitation

          Under the terms of our Agreements with Laurus, the number of shares to
be obtained upon exercise of the conversion rights or option rights cannot
exceed the number of shares that, when combined with all other shares of common
stock and securities then owned by Laurus, would result in Laurus owning more
than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock at any given point of time (or 19.99%
in the event that such limitation is suspended upon the occurrence of an "event
of default" under any of the Agreements or any other transaction agreements).

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Change in Independent Auditors

          On January 13, 2006, Deloitte & Touche LLP ("D&T") informed us that
D&T was resigning as our independent outside auditor. We immediately began our
process to find another suitable independent outside auditor and D&T agreed to
assist us in our transition to such new independent auditor.

          The reports of D&T on our financial statements for each of the two
fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and 2004 did not contain an adverse opinion,
disclaimer of opinion nor was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope, or accounting principles, except for the reports were modified to reflect
substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. In
connection with the audits of our financial statements for each of the two
fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and 2004, and through the filing of our
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, there were
(1) no disagreements with D&T on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure,
which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of D&T, would have caused D&T to make
reference to the matter in its reports and (2) no reportable events. During each
of the two fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and 2004, and through the filing
of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, no
information is required to be reported under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation
S-K.

          On February 14, 2006, our Board of Directors announced the appointment
of BDO Seidman, LLP as our independent auditor.

American Stock Exchange Notification

          On February 10, 2006, we received notice from the American Stock
Exchange ("Amex") that a review of our Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended
November 30, 2005 indicated that we did not meet certain of the Amex's continued
listing standards, and we have, therefore, become subject to the procedures and
requirements of Section 1009 of the Company Guide. Specifically, we are not in
compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide with shareholders'
equity of less than $4,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net
losses in three of our four most recent fiscal years.

          On March 13, 2006, we advised the Amex of action we had taken, or will
take, that would bring us into compliance with the continued listing standards
identified within a maximum of 18 months of receipt of the notice. The Listing
Qualifications Department evaluated the plan and granted us a listing extension
enabling us to continue our listing during the plan period up to August 9, 2007.
During such time we will be subject to periodic review to determine whether we
are making progress consistent with the plan. If we do not show progress
consistent with the plan, the Amex will review the circumstances and may
immediately commence delisting proceedings.

                                 CAPITALIZATION

          The following table sets forth as of May 31, 2006 our actual
capitalization and pro forma capitalization after giving effect to the issuance
of 2,606,791 shares of common stock upon conversion of $4,327,273 of convertible
debt at an assumed conversion price of $1.66 per share and the issuance of
650,000 shares of common stock upon exercise of option rights at an assumed
exercise price of $0.01 per share. The following should be read in conjunction
with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operation" and the financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere

                                  RISK FACTORS

          You should carefully consider the risks described below before
deciding whether to invest in shares of our common stock. Any investment in our
common stock involves a high degree of risk. The risks and uncertainties
described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and
uncertainties not presently known to us may also impair our operations and
business.

          If we do not successfully address any of the risks described below,
there could be a material adverse effect on our financial condition, operating
results and business, and the trading price of our common stock may decline and
you may lose all or part of your investment. We cannot assure you that we will
successfully address these risks.

WE HAVE A HISTORY OF OPERATING LOSSES, ANTICIPATE INCURRING LOSSES FOR THE
FORESEEABLE FUTURE AND MAY NEVER BECOME PROFITABLE.

          For the fiscal year ending August 31, 2005, we had an operating loss
of approximately $2,502,000. For each of the quarterly periods ending November
30, 2005 and February 28, 2006, we had operating losses of approximately
$441,000 and $135,000, respectively. For the three-month and nine-month periods
ended May 31, 2006, we had net income of $18,000 and net loss of $558,000,
respectively.

          The report of our auditors with respect to their examination of our
financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2005 contains an explanatory
paragraph relating to the preparation of our financial statements on a "going
concern" basis, and states that we were not in compliance with our loan
agreements, have suffered losses from operations and have a retained deficit
that raise a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
At August 31, 2005 and May 31, 2006, we had an accumulated deficit of
approximately $13,149,000 and $13,706,000, respectively. While our management is
addressing those conditions which have left substantial doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern, there is no certainty that we will be successful
in implementing any of the plans of management to restore us to profitability or
to otherwise ensure that we will be able to continue as a going concern.

SHAREHOLDERS MAY SUFFER DILUTION FROM THE EXERCISE OF EXISTING OPTIONS, WARRANTS
AND CONVERSION RIGHTS.

          Our common stock may become diluted if warrants and options to
purchase our common stock are exercised or additional shares are issued upon
conversion pursuant to conversion rights by our Senior Lender, Laurus Master
Fund, Ltd. ("Laurus"). The number of shares of our common stock that can
currently be purchased upon exercise of warrants is 10,000, upon exercise of
options is 831,000 (650,000 of these options are those granted to Laurus) and
pursuant to conversion rights is 2,606,791. Under the terms of our Agreements
with Laurus, the number of shares to be obtained upon exercise of options or
pursuant to conversion rights held by Laurus cannot exceed the number of shares
that, when combined with all other shares of common stock and securities then
owned by Laurus, would result in Laurus owning more than 4.99% of our
outstanding common stock at any given point of time (or 19.99% in the event that
such limitation is suspended upon the occurrence of an "event of default" under
any of the Agreements or any other transaction agreements). See "The Offering"
on page 1 for a more complete description of our agreements with Laurus.

          These shares, as well as the eligibility for additional restricted
shares to be sold in the future, either pursuant to future registrations under
the Securities Act, or an exemption such as Rule 144 under the Securities Act,
may have a dilutive effect on the market price of our common stock. The terms
upon which we will be able to obtain additional equity capital could also be
adversely affected. In addition, the sale of common stock offered by this
prospectus, or merely the possibility that these sales could occur, could have
an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

THE INABILITY TO OBTAIN NECESSARY ADDITIONAL CAPITAL IN THE FUTURE ON ACCEPTABLE
TERMS COULD DELAY US FROM EXECUTING OUR BUSINESS PLAN OR PREVENT US FROM DOING
SO ENTIRELY.

          We expect to need additional capital in the future to fund our
operations, finance investments in equipment and corporate infrastructure,
expand our domestic and global sub-supplier network, increase the range of
services we offer and respond to competitive pressures and perceived
opportunities. Cash flow from operations and cash on hand may not be sufficient
to cover our operating expenses and capital investment needs. We cannot assure
you that additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to us, if at
all. A failure to obtain additional funding could prevent us from making
expenditures that are needed to allow us to grow or maintain our operations.
Increases in business can temporarily reduce our working capital due to cash
flow lags.


                                       6



          If we raise additional funds by selling equity securities, the
relative equity ownership of our existing investors could be diluted or the new
investors could obtain terms more favorable than previous investors. If we raise
additional funds through debt financing, we could incur significant borrowing
costs. The failure to obtain additional financing when required could result in
us being unable to grow as required to maintain profitable operations.

WE HAVE SIGNIFICANT OUTSTANDING INDEBTEDNESS AND DEBT SERVICE OBLIGATIONS.

          In order to finance our operations we have incurred indebtedness. Our
credit facility with Laurus is secured by substantially all of our assets. In
addition to certain limited financial covenants, our credit facility restricts
our ability to incur additional indebtedness or to pledge our assets. As of
August 31, 2005 and May 31, 2006, we are in compliance with all of the terms of
our credit facility with Laurus. There can be no assurance, however, that we
will be able to comply with the terms of this credit facility in the future. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" on page 16 for additional information on our outstanding
indebtedness.

          Our business is subject to all of the risks associated with
substantial leverage, including the risk that available cash may not be adequate
to make required payments. Our ability to satisfy outstanding debt obligations
from cash flow will be dependent upon our future performance and will be subject
to financial, business and other factors, many of which will be beyond our
control. In the event that we do not have sufficient cash resources to satisfy
our repayment obligations, we would be in default, which would have a material
adverse effect on our business. To the extent that we are required to use cash
resources to satisfy interest payments to the holders of outstanding debt
obligations, we will have fewer resources available for other purposes. There is
no assurance that we will not increase our leverage in the future, whether as a
result of operational or financial performance, acquisition or otherwise.

AN INCREASE IN INTEREST RATES WOULD INCREASE THE COST OF SERVICING OUR DEBT AND
COULD REDUCE OUR PROFITABILITY.

          Borrowings under our secured credit facility with Laurus bear or will
bear interest at variable rates and expose us to interest rate risk. If interest
rates increase, whether because of an increase in market interest rates or an
increase in our own cost of borrowing, our debt service obligations for our
variable rate indebtedness would increase even though the amount of borrowings
remained the same, and our net income could be materially adversely affected. As
of August 31, 2005, our total outstanding debt of approximately $15.8 million
included interest rate sensitive debt of approximately $11.7 million (by its
original terms), which had a weighted average interest rate of approximately
8.7% per annum. As of May 31, 2006, outstanding interest rate sensitive debt
totaled approximately $13.3 million, with a weighted average interest rate of
approximately 9.7% per annum.

OUR REVENUE WOULD DECLINE SIGNIFICANTLY IF WE LOSE ONE OR MORE OF OUR MOST
SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS WHICH COULD HAVE A SIGNIFICANT ADVERSE IMPACT ON US.

          A significant portion of our revenues are concentrated among a few
large customers. For the year ended August 31, 2005, our largest customer
represented approximately $3.4 million or 18% of total revenue, while the next
three largest customers represented approximately $4.8 million or 25% of total
revenue. Our three largest customers represented 84% and 63% of total revenue
for each of the fiscal years ended 2005 and 2004, respectively. For the three
and nine months ended May 31, 2006, our three largest customers represented
approximately 60% and 52%, respectively, of total revenues. The loss of any of
the foregoing customers could have a significant adverse impact on us.

THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT WE WILL REMAIN LISTED ON AN ACTIVE TRADING MARKET.

          Although our common stock is quoted on the American Stock Exchange
("Amex"), there can be no assurance that we will, in the future, be able to meet
all the requirements for continued quotation thereon. Amex recently approved a
plan submitted by us to regain compliance with our continued listing
requirements by August 9, 2007. Although we believe we can achieve our plan,
there can be no assurance that we can successfully do so. In the absence of an
active trading market or if our common stock cannot be traded on the American
Stock Exchange, our common stock could instead be traded on the Electronic
Bulletin Board or on the Pink Sheets. In such event, the liquidity and stock
price in the secondary market may be adversely affected. In addition, in the
event our common stock was delisted, broker-dealers have certain regulatory
burdens imposed upon them, which may discourage broker-dealers from effecting
transactions in our common stock, further limiting the liquidity of our common
stock.


                                       7



OUR STOCK PRICE IS VOLATILE.

          Our stock price, like that of other small cap companies, is subject to
significant volatility because of factors such as quarterly variations in our
operating results, changes in revenue or earnings estimates by the investment
community and speculation in the press or investment community. In addition, our
stock price is affected by unfavorable global economic and market conditions. If
such conditions deteriorate, our stock price could decline.

WE DEPEND ON OUR SENIOR MANAGEMENT, THE LOSS OF WHOM WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE
IMPACT ON US.

          We presently are dependent upon the executive abilities of our
President and Chief Executive Officer, Kenneth K. Rieth, our Chief Financial
Officer, Peter C. Canepa, and our other executive officers. Our business and
operations to date chiefly have been implemented under the direction of these
individuals, who presently are, and in the future will be, responsible for the
implementation of our anticipated plans and programs. The loss or unavailability
of the services of one or more of our principal executives would have an adverse
effect on us. Given our present financial condition, we may encounter difficulty
in our ability to recruit and ultimately hire any replacement or additional
executive officers having similar background, experience and qualifications as
those of our current executive officers.

THE MARKETS SERVED BY US ARE HIGHLY CYCLICAL AND OUR BUSINESS COULD BE
MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECTED AS A RESULT OF GENERAL ECONOMIC AND MARKET
CONDITIONS.

          We are subject to the effects of general global economic and market
conditions. The automotive industry is highly cyclical and dependent on consumer
spending. Economic factors adversely affecting automotive production and
consumer spending could adversely impact our business. If economic and market
conditions deteriorate, our business, results of operations or financial
condition could be materially adversely affected. An economic downturn may also
impact substantially leveraged companies, such as ourselves, more than similarly
situated companies with less leverage.

LABOR INTERRUPTIONS COULD HAVE AN ADVERSE IMPACT ON OUR BUSINESS.

          Within the automotive supply industry substantially all of the hourly
employees of the OEMs and many Tier I suppliers are represented by labor unions,
and work pursuant to collective bargaining agreements. The failure of any of our
significant customers to reach agreement with a labor union on a timely basis,
resulting in either a work stoppage or strike, could have an adverse impact on
our business.

OUR BUSINESS COULD BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECTED AS A RESULT OF WAR OR ACTS
OF TERRORISM.

          Terrorist acts or acts of war may cause damage or disruption to our
employees, facilities, customers and partners, which could have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
Such conflicts may also cause damage or disruption to transportation and
communication systems and to our ability to manage logistics in such an
environment, including receipt of materials and distribution of products.

WE ARE SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION, WHICH COULD HAVE AN ADVERSE IMPACT
ON US.

          We are subject to the requirements of federal, state and local
environmental and occupational health and safety laws and regulations. Although
we have made and will continue to make expenditures to comply with environmental
requirements, these requirements are constantly evolving, and it is impossible
to predict whether compliance with these laws and regulations may have a
material adverse effect on us in the future. If a release of hazardous
substances occurs on or from our property or from any of our disposals at
offsite disposal locations, or if contamination is discovered at any or our
current or former properties, we may be held liable, and the amount of such
liability could be material.

                  USE OF PROCEEDS AND EXPENSES OF THE OFFERING

          We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares
offered by Laurus. We will receive a maximum of approximately $6,500 from the

          We were originally incorporated in 1967 and were incorporated in our
present form in 1988, under the laws of the State of Michigan.

INDUSTRY TRENDS

          The principal factor affecting tooling demand is the level of capital
spending by our customers on manufacturing equipment for use in the production
of new products or models and, in our case, predominantly the automotive
industry. The market for U.S. produced tooling has both cyclical and structural
factors that create tooling product demand.

          The cyclical factors are associated with the consumer demand levels as
well as capital spending in various end-use sectors. Generally, tooling sales
are less dependent on the level of automotive unit sales, but are more dependent
on the introduction of new and updated product designs into the marketplace. The
introduction of a new automotive model creates a demand for new tooling. This
new tooling then creates the product parts that are assembled into the new
models. Some slight variations in the production platform, such as changes to
the drive train of an automobile, may involve no new tooling but may entail
slight modifications in existing tooling in order to allow the production of
components with these minor modifications. For the most part, the vast majority
of new models require completely new tooling.

          The structural factors affecting automotive tooling demand include the
OEMs trend to shorter product cycles (30-36 month product cycle) as well as
compressed tooling lead times (9-12 months). Additionally, the implementation of
globalized manufacturing strategies, including the increasing competitiveness of
foreign toolmakers, as well as the capture of domestic industry production share
by offshore-based firms, affect domestic automotive tooling demand.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

     Dies. Our dies are used in the high-speed production of sheet metal stamped
parts and assemblies. Production of such parts is a multiple step process
involving a series of dies. Typically, the first die is used to cut the
appropriate size metal blank from a sheet or coil of steel. The next die draws
the metal blank into its primary shape and subsequent dies are used to bend
edges or corners, create flanges, trim-off excess metal and pierce assembly
holes. A customer usually orders only one series of dies for each separate part.
Normally, the dies do not require replacement due to usage because the life of
well-maintained dies is sufficient to carry production to the point when styling
changes dictate production of new dies. The dies manufactured by us generally
include automation features,


                                       12



adding to the complexity of design and construction. These automation features
facilitate rapid introduction and removal of the work piece or raw material into
and out of the die, thereby increasing production speeds and reducing labor cost
for part manufacturers.

     Engineering of Product and Process. As the OEMs continue their efforts to
reduce lead times of new model launches, we produce concurrently, rather than
sequentially, many of our tool designs and manufacturing processes. In certain
instances, before the final design by the customer is complete, we already have
ordered many of the raw materials, such as steel, and may have begun various
machining operations. Typically, we will receive part data or descriptions in
the form of electronic files, which the customer wants us to use in developing a
tool to produce that part. The tool design is then created by us, utilizing
computer aided-design ("CAD") software. We then utilize computer software that
simulates the metal-forming process within the die. This simulation data is then
utilized in final die design to reduce the need for expensive and time-consuming
reworking of the die during the tryout process. Upon completion of tool design,
we develop the computer programs (computer-aided-manufacturing ("CAM") software)
which drive the cutter paths on the machine tools. These machine tools fabricate
many components for the tool. A variety of machine tools are utilized to cut and
polish the various parts and surfaces of the tool, including our high-speed
machining centers and 5-axis machining centers, all of which are
computer-numerically-controlled ("CNC"). The process of utilizing high-speed CNC
machining centers reduces the traditional requirement for expensive and
time-consuming hand finishing. After the tool components are produced or
purchased, they are assembled and fitted together.

     Prototype Tooling and Parts. Prototype tooling and parts are utilized
during the design phase of new models. The automobile manufacturers validate the
fit and function of the respective components and assemblies and the
repeatability of the respective production processes using these tools. The
parts manufactured from prototype tools are also often used in crash testing.

     Typically, prototype tools associated with the primary metal forming
operations are manufactured from an alloy casting or mild steel and subsequently
machined using the mathematical database and related CNC programs. After
machining, the prototype tools are assembled and tested to validate the
integrity and repeatability of the final manufacturing process. The results of
the validation process are incorporated into the mathematical database, which
will then be used to manufacture the final production tools. After testing the
primary forming operations, prototype parts are manufactured using special
means, such as computerized laser-cutting machines, to trim off excess scrap and
to incorporate various slots and holes. These parts are then sent to the
automobile manufacturers for further testing and evaluation. The results of this
testing and evaluation may require the incorporation of additional design and
manufacturing process modifications prior to construction of the production
tooling.

MANUFACTURING

          The manufacturing process starts when we are awarded a tooling
contract. The engineering process commences when an electronic "model" of the
part to be produced is transmitted to us as a mathematical database or
electronic files. Our engineers use the mathematical database to generate
computer-aided die designs and die face cutter path programs. These cutter path
programs are used by the machine tools to manufacture the inner workings of the
die. Most material is removed and the cutting is done by CNC machine tools,
which utilize the computer-generated cutter path programs to cut and polish the
various parts of the tool. After the tool components are produced or purchased,
they are assembled and fitted together. Finally, after the die is constructed,
we produce a "tryout" or run of parts. These parts are then evaluated
statistically for process repeatability and dimensional validation on our
coordinate measuring machine. During this automated validation process, the tool
is statistically compared to the mathematical database.

          On average, 10 months elapse from the time we are awarded a contract
until the final set of dies is shipped to the customer.

QS 9000/TE CERTIFICATION

          We are certified under the Tooling and Equipment Supplement ("TE
Supplement") QS-9000 and ISO-9000 Quality Standards. The TE Supplement/QS-9000
standard was developed jointly by DaimlerChrysler, Ford, and General Motors to
establish a single set of quality requirements for their tooling suppliers. ISO
9000 is an international quality standard for all industries.

          The TE Supplement has become the international standard of all quality
systems in the tooling industry, designed to ensure that systems are in place to
prevent defects from occurring in the design, manufacturing and validation
phases of our processes. We, by receiving the TE Supplement/QS-9000
certification, have demonstrated that our quality systems are in place to meet
customer requirements.


                                       13



RAW MATERIALS

          The steel, castings and other components utilized by us in the
manufacturing process are available from many different sources and we are not
dependent on any single source. We typically purchase our raw materials on a
purchase order basis as needed and have generally been able to obtain adequate
supplies of raw materials for our operations.

MARKETING AND SALES

          Our marketing emphasis is on DaimlerChrysler (including Mercedes
Benz), Ford, General Motors, and BMW and their respective tier one suppliers. We
maintain relationships with DaimlerChrysler (including Mercedes-Benz), Ford,
General Motors, and BMW that directly accounted for approximately 25%, in the
aggregate, of our revenues in 2005. For the year ended August 31, 2005,
DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General Motors, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and their respective
tier one suppliers accounted for approximately 88%, in the aggregate, of our
revenues. For the year ended August 31, 2004, DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General
Motors, Mercedes-Benz and BMW and their respective tier one supplier directly
accounted for 92%, in the aggregate, of our revenues.

          We typically sell our tooling systems to either OEMs directly or to
manufacturers of products under contract with such OEMs (tier one suppliers).
Sales efforts are conducted primarily by our Vice President of Sales, President,
senior management and project management personnel. Frequent contact is made
with domestic and foreign automobile manufacturers, their purchasing agents, and
platform managers and tier one suppliers. Typically, our sales process begins
when a package or request for quotation is received from the tier one supplier
or OEM. Generally, we recommend process and design changes to improve the cost
and quality of a product. We maintain a computer database with historical
information regarding dies we have previously manufactured. This database
assists us in quoting prices for dies and enables us to respond to most
quotation requests quickly and accurately. If a customer decides to accept our
quotation, a purchase order is issued subject to price adjustments for
engineering changes as requested by the customer. Bids generally are awarded
based on technological capability, price, quality and past performance.

BACKLOG AND SEASONALITY

          Our backlog of awarded contracts, which are all believed to be firm,
was approximately $9.2 million and $11.0 million as of May 31, 2006 and May 31,
2005, respectively. We expect all backlog contracts will be reflected in sales
during fiscal years ended August 31, 2006 and 2007. Our sales of stamping dies
do not follow a seasonal pattern; however, the timing of new model introductions
and existing model restyling tooling programs are dependent on DaimlerChrysler,
Ford, General Motors, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and their respective introduction of
new models.

COMPETITION

          Large, complex automotive stamping dies are manufactured primarily by
three supplier groups: a) domestic independent tool and die manufacturers, b)
foreign independent tool and die manufacturers, and c) captive or in-house tool
and die shops owned and operated by OEMs.

          The independent tool and die manufacturer industry has significant
barriers to entry, which can reduce competition in the large-scale die market.
These barriers include the highly capital intensive and technically complex
requirements of the industry. Additionally, attracting and retaining employees
skilled in the use of advanced design and manufacturing technology is a
multi-year process. A new competitor most likely would lack much of the
credibility and historical customer relationships that take years to develop.

          Finally, the OEMs maintain in-house, captive tool and die capacity in
order to meet a portion of their needs. General Motors, for example, maintains
the largest captive capacity and, based on estimates from various trade
publications, supplies an estimated 75-80% of their own die construction needs.
Ford produces approximately 50% and DaimlerChrysler 25% of their own respective
needs. Independent suppliers, like us, tend to have a competitive advantage over
the OEMs' in-house die shops due to the OEMs' higher cost structure.

          With the advent of simultaneous engineering in the automobile
industry, proximity of the OEMs' design engineers may influence the placement of
contracts. However, foreign competition may have certain advantages over
domestic die manufacturers including lower capital costs, currency exchange
advantages, government assistance and lower labor costs.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

          Change in Independent Auditors

          On January 13, 2006, Deloitte & Touche LLP ("D&T") informed us that
D&T was resigning as our independent outside auditor. We immediately began our
process to find another suitable independent outside auditor and D&T agreed to
assist us in our transition to such new independent auditor.

          The reports of D&T on our financial statements for each of the two
fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and 2004 did not contain an adverse opinion,
disclaimer of opinion nor was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope, or accounting principles, except for the reports were modified to reflect
substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. In
connection with the audits of our financial statements for each of the two
fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and 2004, and through the filing of our
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, there were
(1) no disagreements with D&T on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure,
which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of D&T, would have caused D&T to make
reference to the matter in its reports and (2) no reportable events. During each
of the two fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and 2004, and through the filing
of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, no
information is required to be reported under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation
S-K.

          On February 14, 2006, our Board of Directors announced the appointment
of BDO Seidman, LLP as our independent accountant.

          Amex Notification

          On February 10, 2006, we received notice from the Amex that a review
of our Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended November 30, 2005 indicated that we
did not meet certain of the Amex's continued listing standards, and we have,
therefore, become subject to the procedures and requirements of Section 1009 of
the Company Guide. Specifically, we are not in compliance with Section
1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide with shareholders' equity of less than
$4,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of
our four most recent fiscal years.

          On March 13, 2006, we advised the Amex of action we had taken, or will
take, that would bring us into compliance with the continued listing standards
identified within a maximum of 18 months of receipt of the notice. The Listing
Qualifications Department evaluated the plan and granted us a listing extension
enabling us to continue our listing during the plan period up to August 9, 2007.
During such time we will be subject to periodic review to determine whether we
are making progress consistent with the plan. If we do not show progress
consistent with the plan, the Amex will review the circumstances and may
immediately commence delisting proceedings.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations is based upon our Financial Statements. These financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America. These principles require the use of estimates
and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the financial
statements and related notes. The accounting policies that may involve a higher
degree of judgment, estimates and complexity include revenue recognition using
percentage of completion estimates and the assessment of asset impairments. We
use the following methods and assumptions in our estimates.

     -    Revenue recognition - We recognize revenue on time and material
          contracts utilizing the completed-contract method. Revenue is
          recognized on all other contracts utilizing the
          percentage-of-completion method. Under the completed-contract method,
          the contract is considered complete when all costs except for
          insignificant items have been incurred and the customer has approved
          the project. Under the percentage-of-completion method, estimated
          contract earnings are based on total estimated contract profits
          multiplied by the ratio of labor hours incurred to total estimated
          labor hours on the contract. Provisions for total estimated losses on
          contracts in process are recognized in the period such losses are
          determined. Changes in job performance, conditions and estimated
          profitability may result in revisions to costs and income and are
          recognized in the period such revisions are determined.

     -    Net book value of long-lived assets - We review long-lived assets for
          impairment if changes in circumstances or the occurrence of events
          suggest the remaining value may not be recoverable. This review is
          performed using estimated future cash flows. If the carrying value of
          a long-lived asset is considered to be impaired, an impairment charge
          is recorded for the amount that the carrying value of the long-lived
          asset exceeds its fair value.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In December, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123 (R), "Share-Based
Payments" that requires compensation costs related to share-based payment
transactions to be recognized in the financial statements. With limited
exceptions, the amount of compensation cost will be measured based on the grant
date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. In addition,
liability awards will be re-measured each reporting period. Compensation costs
will be recognized over the period that an employee provides services in
exchange for the award. SFAS No. 123 (R) replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation", and supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations.
SFAS No. 123 (R) became effective on September 1, 2005 and was not material.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. During 2005, we sustained a loss
from operations of $498,282 and a net loss of $2,502,248. This loss resulted in
an accumulated deficit of $13,148,735 as of August 31, 2005. These factors,
among other things, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a
going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating
to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the
amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be
unable to continue as a going concern.

We believe that the revolving line of credit and the funds generated from
operations, will be sufficient to cover anticipated cash needs through fiscal
2006. However, depending on our level of future sales, terms of such sales,
financial performance and cash flow of existing contracts, such financing may
not be sufficient to support operations. Therefore, we may be required to seek
additional sources of funding.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

We review long-lived assets for impairment if changes in circumstances or the
occurrence of events suggest the remaining value may not be recoverable. An
asset is deemed impaired and written down to its fair value if estimated related
total future undiscounted cash flows are less than its book (carrying) value. In
performing our evaluation of long-lived assets for impairment, we utilized
undiscounted cash flows based on the assets estimated remaining useful lives. In
developing the projections, we estimated revenues for each year and estimated
resulting margins based upon various assumptions including future market pricing
trends and historical financial costs. The analysis concluded that the estimated
total undiscounted future cash flows were in excess of the carrying value of
long-lived assets. Had the


                                       17



analysis concluded that the total undiscounted future cash flows been below the
carrying value, an impairment charge of the difference between the carrying
value and the lower of the total discounted cash flows or fair value would have
been recorded.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
our Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included elsewhere herein.

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2006 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY
31, 2005.

REVENUES - Revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2006 totaled $6.1 million
as compared to $4.7 million for the three months ended May 31, 2005, an increase
of $1.4 million or 30%. This was a result of our beginning the third quarter of
2006 with a contract backlog of $11.2 million as compared to a $10.1 million
contract backlog in 2005, an increase of 11%. This increased backlog resulted in
our experiencing a 21% increase in direct labor hours during the third quarter
of 2006, as compared to 2005, resulting in an increase in third quarter
revenues.

Our backlog of awarded contracts, which are all believed to be firm, was
approximately $9.2 million and $11 million as of May 31, 2006 and May 31, 2005
respectively. We expect all backlog contracts to be reflected in sales during
fiscal years ending August 31, 2006 and 2007.

COST OF SALES - Cost of goods sold increased from $4.1 million for the third
quarter of fiscal 2005 to $5.0 million for 2006 however as a percent of sales,
decreased from 87.6% for 2005 to 80.8% for 2006. Direct costs (materials and
labor) increased by $800,000, from $1.8 million for 2005 to $2.6 million for
2006. Engineering expense decreased by $64,000 from $596,000 for 2005 to
$532,000 for 2006. Lastly, of the cost of goods sold, manufacturing overhead
increased by $100,000 from $1.7 million for 2005 to $1.8 million for 2006.
Additional details of these changes in cost of sales for the third quarter of
fiscal 2005 and 2006 are as follows:

     -    Direct materials expense remained at $0.5 million for 2006 and as a
          percent of sales decreasing from 14.1% in 2005 to 10.9%. The decrease
          in percent of sales was largely due to higher contract volume
          requirements and related revenues. Outside services expense increased
          from $0.1 million for 2005 to $0.5 million for 2006 and as a percent
          of sales from 2.0% to 8.2%. This was largely due to us incurring
          expenses related to our outsourced revenue during the third quarter of
          2006. The balance of the outside services expense decrease was due to
          higher sales volumes and corresponding increases in outsourcing
          certain design services.

     -    Direct labor expense increased from $1.1 million for 2005 to $1.5
          million for 2006 and as a percent of sales from 22.8% to 24.2%. This
          change was a result of us incurring a 21% increase in direct labor
          hours, from 59,000 hours in 2005 to 71,500 in 2006. Of the total
          direct labor expense, regular or straight time increased by $211,000
          however decreased a percent of sales from 16.4% for 2005 to 16.0% for
          2006. Overtime expense increased from $303,000 for 2005 to $503,000
          for 2006 and as a percent of sales from 6.4% for 2005 to 8.2% for
          2006.

     -    Engineering expense decreased from $596,000, 12.7% of sales, for 2005
          to $532,000, and 8.7% of sales, for 2006. This was due to us
          maintaining lower project management personnel during 2006 as compared
          to 2005.

     -    Manufacturing overhead was $1.7 million or 35.9% of sales for 2005 as
          compared to $1.8 million or 28.9% of sales for 2006. During 2006,
          increases in manufacturing overhead were largely due to a $37,000
          increase in payroll taxes, a $23,000 increase in medical insurance
          expense, a $22,000 increase in perishable tooling expense, a $14,000
          increase in utilities expense and an $11,000 increase in indirect
          labor. These were offset by a decrease of $30,000 in depreciation
          expense. The increase of approximately 6.0% of manufacturing overhead
          was largely due to the increase in sales volumes.


                                       18



SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE. Selling and administrative expense increased
slightly from $660,000 for the third quarter of 2005 to $670,000 for 2006. As a
percent of sales, selling and administrative expense decreased from 14.1% for
2005 to 10.9% for 2006. This decrease was a result of higher sales volume and
decreases in certain professional advisory fees. The largest selling and
administrative expense increases included $73,000 in bad debt expense, $71,000
in public company expenses and $25,000 in the State of Michigan Single Business
tax. These increases were offset by a decrease of $140,000 in professional and
legal fees expense and $7,000 in insurance expense.

The decrease in professional and legal expenses related to our former primary
lender requiring us to retain the services of a consulting company and the
lender's legal counsel at our expense during the second quarter of 2005. During
the third quarter of 2005, such expenses totaled approximately $158,000.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased from $348,000 for the third quarter
of 2005, to $431,000 for 2006. This increase was largely due to our increased
debt levels during the third quarter of 2006 as compared to 2005. For the third
quarter of 2006, we utilized $76,387 of cash in operating activities as compared
to utilizing cash of $1,103,008 in 2005 (financed with borrowings on revolving
line of credit).

COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2006 TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY
31, 2005.

REVENUES - Revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2006 totaled $19.1 million
as compared to $14.2 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2005, an increase
of $4.9 million or 35%. This was a result of us beginning fiscal 2006 with a
contract backlog of $13.7 million as compared to $2.4 million in 2005, an
increase of 471%. This increased backlog resulted in us incurring approximately
217,000 shop floor hours in 2006 as compared to 186,000 during the same period
of 2005, an increase of 31,000 hours or 17%.

COST OF SALES - Cost of goods sold increased from $12.3 million for the nine
months ended May 31, 2005 to $16.4 million for the nine months ended May 31,
2006 however, as a percent of sales, cost of goods sold decreased from 86.5% for
2005 to 85.7% for 2006. Direct costs (materials and labor) increased by $3.8
million, from $5.7 million for 2005 to $9.5 million for 2006. Engineering
expense increased by $45,000 from $1.55 million for 2005 to $1.6 million for
2006. Lastly, of the cost of goods sold, manufacturing overhead increased by
$300,000 from $5.0 million for 2005 to $5.3 million for 2006. Additional details
of these changes in cost of sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2005 and May
31, 2006 are as follows:

     -    Direct materials expense increased from $1.5 million to $3.2 million
          for the first three quarters of 2005 and 2006, respectively. The
          increase in direct materials was a result of increased contract
          backlog and revenues in 2006. Outside services expense increased from
          $0.5 million for 2005 to $2.0 million for 2006 and as a percent of
          sales from 3.7% to 10.4%. The increase in outside services is a result
          of our placing or subcontracting certain construction portions of
          contracts to other suppliers.

     -    Direct labor expense increased from $3.6 million for 2005 to $4.3
          million for 2006 however, as a percent of sales, direct labor expense
          decreased from 25.6% to 22.3%. This change was a result of our
          incurring a 17% increase in direct labor hours, from 186,000 hours in
          2005 to 217,000 in 2006. Of the total direct labor expense, regular or
          straight time increased by $342,000 however, as a percent of sales, it
          decreased from 16.8% for 2005 to 14.3% for 2006. Overtime expense
          increased from $1.3 million for 2005 to $1.5 million for 2006, as a
          percent of sales, decreasing from 8.8% for 2005 to 8.0% for 2006.

     -    Engineering expense increased from $1.5 million, 11.0% of sales, for
          2005 to $1.6 million, and 8.4% of sales, for 2006. This increase was
          due to our increasing the level of engineering personnel staffing
          required to fulfill the design and project management portions of
          contracts.

     -    Manufacturing overhead was $5.0 million or 35.4% of sales for 2005 as
          compared to $5.3 million or 27.6% of sales for 2006. During 2006,
          increases in manufacturing overhead were largely due to a $106,000
          increase in manufacturing supplies expense, a $65,000 increase in
          supervisor salaries and indirect labor expense, a $52,000 increase in
          perishable tooling expense, a $52,000 increase in medical insurance
          premiums, a $42,000 increase in payroll tax expense and a $40,000
          increase in utilities expense. These increases were offset by a
          $92,000 decrease in depreciation expense.


                                       19



SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE - Selling and administrative expense
decreased from $2.1 million for the first three quarters of 2005 to $1.8 million
for 2006. As a percent of sales, selling and administrative expense decreased
from 14.8% for 2005 to 9.6% for 2006. During 2006, increases in selling and
administrative expense were largely due to an $156,000 increase in public
company expenses, a $65,000 increase in the State of Michigan Single Business
tax, a $59,000 increase in bad debt expense and a $38,000 increase in director
fees expense. These increases were offset by a $523,000 decrease in legal and
professional expenses, a $30,000 decrease in travel expenses and a $40,000
decrease in supervisor salaries expense.

The decrease in professional and legal expenses related to our former primary
lender requiring us to retain the services of a consulting company and the
lender's legal counsel at our expense during 2005. During the first three
quarters of 2005, such expenses totaled approximately $511,000.

INTEREST EXPENSE - Interest expense increased from $1.1 million for 2005 to $1.3
million for 2006. This increase was largely due to our increased debt levels
during the first three quarters of 2006 as compared to 2005. For the first three
quarters of 2006, we utilized $1.7 million of cash in operating activities
(financed with borrowings on revolving line of credit) as compared to generating
cash of $6.8 million in 2005 (utilized to reduce revolving line of credit).

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - For the nine months ended May 31, 2006, we recorded a
valuation allowance of approximately $190,000 to reduce our deferred tax assets
resulting from income tax benefit. For the three months ended May 31, 2006, we
recorded a decrease in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance of
approximately $6,000 to offset the income tax benefit.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - During the nine-month period ended May 31,
2006 our cash used in operating activities was $1.7 million. This largely
resulted from an increase of $3.8 million in account receivables and a $1.1
million increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. From investing
activities, we incurred a decrease in other assets of $135,000 and utilized
$111,000 for additions to property, plant and equipment. We financed our
increase in working capital requirements with $2.4 million of borrowings on our
revolving line of credit, net of $1.0 million utilized to reduce other debt (of
which $150,000 was term debt, which was converted to common stock).

We believe that the revolving line of credit and the funds generated from
operations will be sufficient to cover anticipated cash needs for the
foreseeable future. However, depending on our level of future sales, terms of
such sales, financial performance and cash flow of existing contracts, such
financing may not be sufficient to support operations. Therefore, we may be
required to seek additional sources of funding.

FISCAL 2005 COMPARED TO FISCAL 2004

REVENUE.

Total revenue decreased from approximately $24.7 million in 2004 to $19.3
million in 2005, a decrease of 22%. This decrease was a result of us
experiencing a low contract backlog of $2.5 million as of August 31, 2004, which
resulted in a decrease of 22% in shop floor hours and lower sales in fiscal
2005.

Our backlog of awarded contracts, which are all believed to be firm, was
approximately $13.7 million and $2.5 million as of August 31, 2005 and 2004,
respectively, an increase of 448%. We expect all backlog contracts will be
reflected in sales during fiscal years ending August 31, 2006 and 2007.

COST OF GOODS SOLD.

Cost of goods sold decreased from $30.0 million for 2004 to $17.0 million for
2005 and, as a percent of sales, decreasing from 122% for 2004 to 88% for 2005.
Direct costs (materials and labor) decreased by $12.3 million, from $20.6
million for 2004 to $8.3 million for 2005. Engineering expense decreased by $0.2
million from $2.4 million for 2004 to $2.2 million for 2005. Lastly, of the cost
of goods sold, manufacturing overhead decreased by $0.5 million from $7.0
million for 2004 to $6.5 million for 2005. Additional details of these changes
in cost of sales for 2004 and 2005 are as follows:

     -    Direct materials expense decreased from $4.2 million for 2004 to $2.8
          million for 2005 and as a percent of sales from 17% to 15%. This
          decrease was largely due to lower contract material requirements
          during 2005 as compared to 2004. During 2005, our contract mix
          included an increase in die component machining work for the OEMs.
          Such contacts have lower direct material requirements as compared to
          construction contracts as the materials are supplied by the customer.
          Outside services expense


                                       20



          decreased from $9.7 million for 2004 to $0.4 million for 2005 and as a
          percent of sales from 39% to 2%. This decrease was largely due to us
          incurring $7.2 million of expense related to our outsourced projects
          in 2004. The balance of the outside services expense was due to lower
          sales volumes and internalizing of certain machining work, which was
          historically outsourced.

     -    Direct labor expense decreased by 26% from $6.7 million for 2004 to
          $5.0 million for 2005 and, as a percent of sales, decreasing from 27%
          to 26%. This change was a result of us incurring a 22% decrease in
          direct labor hours, from 318,000 hours in 2004 to 249,000 in 2005. Of
          the total direct labor expense, regular or straight time decreased 24%
          or $1.1 million and, as a percent of sales, decreased from 18% for
          2004 to 17% for 2005. Overtime expense decreased 30% or $0.7 million,
          from $2.3 million for 2004 to $1.6 million for 2005 and, as a percent
          of sales, decreasing from 9% for 2004 to 8% for 2005.

     -    Engineering expense decreased from $2.4 million, or 10% of sales, for
          2004 to $2.2 million, or 11% of sales, for 2005. This decrease was
          largely as a result of a $0.2 million decrease in engineering salaries
          and related payroll taxes expense.

     -    Manufacturing overhead was $6.5 million or 34% of sales for 2005 as
          compared to $7.0 million or 28% of sales for 2004. During 2005,
          decreases in manufacturing overhead were largely attributed to
          decreases of $154,000 in labor and payroll tax expenses, $148,000 in
          manufacturing supplies expense, $86,000 in health and workers
          compensation insurance expense, $77,000 in depreciation expense and
          $52,000 in building maintenance and supplies expense. The increase of
          approximately 6% of manufacturing overhead, as a percent of sales, was
          largely due to lower overhead absorption resulting from lower sales
          volumes in 2005.

SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE.

Selling and administrative expense for 2005 increased to $2.8 million or 15% of
sales, from $2.0 million or 8% of sales in 2004. This increase was largely a
result of us incurring an additional $0.7 million in legal and professional fees
during 2005. The largest increase related to our former primary lender, Comerica
Bank, requiring us to retain the services of a consulting company and reimburse
the lender's legal counsel. Such expenses totaled approximately $0.5 million.
The remaining increases in legal and professional expenses were incurred in
regards to our litigation, refinancing and S-1 filing.

INTEREST EXPENSE.

Interest expense increased from $0.9 million for 2004 to $1.6 million for 2005.
During the first three quarters of 2005 we were under a Forbearance Agreement
with our then primary lender - Comerica Bank. Under such agreement we were
charged a higher interest rate on our debt (from prime plus 1.25% in 2004 to
prime plus 4% in 2005) as well as an additional $0.1 million in forbearance fees
during 2005.

OTHER EXPENSE - SUBORDINATED DEBT FINANCING COSTS.

During the third quarter of 2005, we retired our $3.0 million subordinated debt
with Hillstreet Capital. This subordinated debt was paid prior to the scheduled
retirement and resulted in us expensing approximately $0.3 million of debt
issuance costs during 2005. These debt issuance costs were originally
capitalized at the time of the transaction (fiscal 2004) and were being
amortized over the original repayment schedule.

FISCAL 2004 COMPARED TO FISCAL 2003

REVENUE.

Total revenue decreased from approximately $34 million in 2003 to $25 million in
2004, a decrease of 28%. This decrease was a result of us completing our
significant tooling programs for a major European automaker for a sports utility
vehicle and a new "crossover" vehicle to be manufactured in the United States.
Our customer for these vehicles is the Tier 1 supplier to Mercedes-Benz for
these particular vehicles. During the fourth quarter of 2004, we had significant
difficulties in completing the contracts, which had a severe negative effect on
revenue, cost of sales, and related earnings. We, due to many various
circumstances, incurred significant cost overruns on many of the parts under the
contracts. Many of these cost overruns involve customer timing changes, material
specification changes and us outsourcing the completion of many dies to meet
customer deadlines. All of the aforementioned issues resulted in us incurring
approximately $4.0 million in additional outsourcing costs and $3.5 million in
additional labor costs. We accrued $5.2 million of estimated losses on these
contracts and others as of August 31, 2004. The outsourcing costs were incurred
as a result of us having certain "bottlenecks" in our production. These
bottlenecks were a result of changes to material specifications combined with an
increase in the number of engineering changes required. The material
specification changes involved customer changes from a grade of steel we had
previous experience with to a new grade of high-strength steel which, not only
had we had no


                                       21



experience working with, was also new to the customer. As a result of this new
material, we could not simulate the flow of the steel in the dies. Due to the
lack of historical data as to the material flow, we, in some cases, had to
re-cut the dies up to eight times to get the part within specifications with
this material. This created capacity constraints in our machining and tryout
areas. As a result of these constraints, the customer required that we utilize
specified outside die shops to complete certain dies, which were constructed
internally. The customer decided that our internal capacity had become
overburdened as a result of the rework being performed by us to obtain part
specifications with the new high-strength steel. Had we not outsourced this
work, the customer may have cancelled the contracts and charged us for all of
the added costs incurred. In addition, the customer may have discontinued the
scheduled progress payments, which would have caused severe cash-flow problems
for us. Management took the position that by outsourcing this work directly, the
added costs were better controlled and prevented potential cash-flow
difficulties.

Despite the aforementioned fourth quarter problems, we did realize an overall
profit on these two programs. The total amount of revenue on these contracts was
$43.0 million with a net margin of $0.2 million.

COST OF GOODS SOLD.

Cost of goods sold decreased from $30.7 million for 2003 to $30.0 million for
2004. However, as a percent of sales, cost of goods sold increased from 90% for
2003 to 122% for 2004. Direct costs (materials and labor) decreased by $0.8
million, from $21.4 million for 2003 to $20.6 million for 2004. Engineering
expense remained consistent at $2.4 million for both 2003 and 2004. Lastly, of
the cost of goods sold, manufacturing overhead remained consistent at $7.0
million for 2004 versus $6.9 million for 2003. Additional details of these
changes in cost of sales for 2003 and 2004 are as follows:

     -    Direct materials expense decreased from $6.4 million for 2003 to $4.2
          million for 2004 and as a percent of sales from 19% to 17%. This
          decrease was largely due to lower contract material requirements
          during 2004 as compared to 2003. Outside services expense increased
          from $9.4 million for 2003 to $9.7 million for 2004 and increased as a
          percent of sales from 27% to 39%. Of the outsourced services expense
          for 2004, approximately $4.0 million of the $9.7 million was in excess
          of amounts estimated for certain jobs and created extensive cost
          overruns on those particular jobs as described in the aforementioned
          Revenue section.

     -    Direct labor expense increased from $5.7 million for 2003 to $6.7
          million for 2004 and as a percent of sales, direct labor increased
          from 17% to 27%. This change was a result of us incurring a 4%
          increase in direct labor hours, from 304,000 hours in 2003 to 318,000
          in 2004. Of the total direct labor expense, regular or straight time
          increased by $0.7 million and as a percent of sales increased from 11%
          for 2003 to 18% for 2004. Overtime expense increased from $1.9 million
          for 2003 to $2.3 million for 2004 and as a percent of sales increased
          from 6% for 2003 to 9% for 2004. We incurred added labor costs of
          approximately $3.5 million related to the construction and buy-off
          difficulties noted above.

SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE.

Selling and administrative expense for 2004 increased by $0.3 million to $2.0
million as compared to $1.7 million for 2003. As a percent of sales, selling and
administrative expense increased from 5% for 2003 to 8% for 2004. This largely
consisted of increases of $141,000 in administrative and sales salaries, $79,000
in State of Michigan Single Business Tax, $50,000 in deferred compensation
expense and $38,000 in public company expenses.

INTEREST EXPENSE.

Interest expense increased from $0.8 million for 2003 to $0.9 million for 2004.
This increase was largely due to us incurring additional interest expense
related to issuance of $3.0 million subordinated debt during the fourth quarter
of 2004.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX.

Our effective income tax rates were 0% for the years ended August 31, 2003, 2004
and 2005. We had approximately $164,000 of alternative minimum tax credits as of
August 31, 2005, the use of which does not expire, and federal net operating
loss carryforwards of $7,304,000, which expire, if unused, in fiscal 2022, 2023
and 2025. We have a valuation allowance of $3,737,000 and $4,615,000 at August
31, 2004 and 2005, respectively, for net deferred tax assets, which may not
ultimately be realized.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2005, our cash flow generated from
operating activities was $3.5 million. This largely resulted from a decrease of
$7.8 million in accounts receivable, net of allowance for uncollectible accounts
receivable, a $2.2 million increase in contracts in process and a $1.4 million
decrease in accounts payable. From investing activities, we incurred $0.2
million in additions to property, plant and equipment and a $0.6 million
decrease in other assets consisting largely of debt financing costs, which were
expensed prior to the scheduled amortization due to retirement of the related
debt. We used net cash in financing activities of


                                       22



$3.6 million. The cash used in financing activities included our May 17, 2005
new senior financing with gross proceeds of $9.2 million. We applied $4.3
million to retire our previous senior debt facility with Comerica Bank, $3.2
million to retire our subordinated debt with Hillstreet, and $0.5 million in
fees to Laurus (new lender). The net remaining funds, $1.2 million, were
utilized for general working capital purposes. Subsequent to this financing, we
have borrowed $2.5 million under the Convertible Revolving Working Capital
Credit Line to finance the increase in our contracts in process.

On May 17, 2005, we entered into a new senior loan facility agreement with
Laurus as evidenced by the Agreements. Pursuant to these Agreements, we received
a Term Loan in the aggregate principal amount of $3.2 million as well as a
Revolving Credit Facility with a maximum availability of $10.0 million. Each of
the Term Loan and any loans under the Revolving Facility shall be convertible by
Laurus into shares of our common stock at a rate of $1.66 per share. In
addition, as part of the agreement, we issued an option to purchase 650,000
shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $.01.

We, in issuing an option for 650,000 shares at $.01 per share, triggered price
protection provisions in previously issued warrants. Under the previous warrant
agreements, if we issued warrants or options below the strike price of the
warrants, the exercise price of the outstanding warrants would adjust to the
lower exercise price. We had previous warrants for 315,792 shares of common
stock with 157,896 shares priced at an exercise price of $5.07 per share and
157,896 priced at $5.53 per share. During 2005, certain warrant holders
exercised such warrants at the adjusted price and we issued an additional
210,528 shares of common stock.

We believe that the revolving line of credit and the funds generated from
operations, will be sufficient to cover anticipated cash needs through fiscal
2006. However, depending on the level of future sales, and the terms of such
sales, an expanded credit line or other financial instruments may be necessary
to finance increases in trade accounts receivable and contracts in process. We
believe we will be able to obtain such expanded credit line and/or other
financing, if required.

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates on our debt
obligations. We do not currently use any derivative financial instruments to
manage our interest rate risk.

INFLATION

We have no long-term, fixed price supply contracts. Although the average set of
dies takes approximately ten months from inception to shipment, any significant
direct material costs are incurred at the beginning of the die manufacturing
process. Historically, we have been able to reflect increases in the prices of
labor and material in our selling prices, however under current industry pricing
pressures, we are unsure if this will continue to be the case in the future.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

          The members of the compensation committee during the fiscal year ended
2005 were J. Dann Engels, James V. Gillette and Dr. Jay S. Baron. Neither
Messrs. Engels, Gillette nor Dr. Baron were ever an officer or employee of us or
any of our subsidiaries, and none of them had any relationship requiring
disclosure by us under Item 404 of Regulation S-K for the fiscal year ended
2005.

                          COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

          The duty of the Committee is to recommend to the Board of Directors
the remuneration arrangements for Kenneth K. Rieth, our President and Chief
Executive Officer, as well as grant stock options under our 1996 Incentive Stock
Option Plan, as amended, and the 1998 Key Employee Stock Option Plan. Our Board
of Directors has given Mr. Rieth the authority to set the compensation for
senior management.

COMPENSATION PROGRAMS

BASE SALARY

          The Committee reviews each officer's salary annually. In determining
appropriate salary levels, consideration is given to scope of responsibility,
experience, Company and individual performance as well as pay practices of other
companies relating to executives with similar responsibility.

          In addition, with respect to the base salary of Mr. Rieth, the
Compensation Committee has acknowledged the longevity of Mr. Rieth's service and
our belief that Mr. Rieth is an excellent representative within the industry. In
assessing Mr. Rieth's compensation, the committee engaged an independent firm to
perform a review of his proposed compensation. Upon completion of such review,
the Board of Directors established Mr. Rieth's base salary on April 25, 2003.
This base compensation consists of a regular payroll payment of $250,000 per
year plus an annual bonus equal to 3.5% of our income from operations before
such bonus expense. Mr. Canepa received a base salary of $140,000 for fiscal
2005.

BONUS AWARDS

          Our officers may be considered for annual cash bonuses, which are
awarded to recognize and reward corporate and individual performance based on
meeting specified goals and objectives. The plan in effect for fiscal 2005 for
Mr. Rieth did not provide a bonus to Mr. Rieth. In determining a bonus to Mr.
Rieth, the Committee reviews compensation levels and financial results available
to it for chief executive officers for similarly sized companies as well as
those located near our headquarters. Mr. Rieth recommends to the Committee Mr.
Canepa's bonus based on his review of corporate and his individual performances
as well as the performance bonus the management team awards to our employees
other than Messrs. Canepa and Rieth.

STOCK OPTIONS

          Under our 1996 Incentive Stock Option Plan, as amended, stock options
may be granted to our key employees including Messrs. Rieth and Canepa. The
number of options granted is determined by the subjective evaluation of the
person's ability to influence our long-term growth and profitability. For fiscal
2005, no stock options were issued under such plan.

          Under our 1998 Key Employee Stock Option Plan, stock options may be
granted to our key employees and directors including Messrs. Rieth, Baron,
Engels, Gillette and Canepa. The number of options granted is determined by the
subjective evaluation of the person's ability to influence our long-term growth
and profitability. For fiscal 2005, no stock options were issued under such
plan.


                                       27



     Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price
of the Common Shares on the date of grant. Since the value of an option bears a
direct relationship to our stock price, it is an effective incentive for
employees to create value for shareholders. The Committee therefore views stock
options as an important component of our future compensation policy.

                             SELLING SECURITYHOLDER

          Laurus may from time to time offer and sell pursuant to this
prospectus any or all of the shares of common stock listed below. When we refer
to "Laurus" in this prospectus, we mean those persons listed in the table below,
as well as the pledgees, donees, assignees, transferees, successors and others
who later hold any of Laurus' interests. In the event that Laurus enters into a
transaction with a pledgee, donee, assignee, transferee or successor, we will
amend or supplement this prospectus to specifically name such individual as a
"Selling Securityholder".

          We have agreed to file a registration statement, of which this
prospectus is a part, to register the shares of Laurus set forth in the table
below in order to permit Laurus to sell these shares from time to time as
described in "Plan of Distribution" on page 37.

          We cannot determine the actual number of shares of our common stock
that we will issue, because of the variables discussed in this prospectus.
Shares of our common stock sold to Laurus will not be freely tradeable by Laurus
until they are registered under applicable securities laws or an exemption from
such registration is available. However, we are required to register for sale
all shares of our common stock issued or issuable to Laurus in connection with
the Agreements.

          The table below sets forth the number of shares being registered for
sale as of the date of this prospectus and sets forth the number of shares of
common stock known by us to be beneficially owned by Laurus as of May 31, 2006.
Laurus has not had a material relationship with us within the past three years
other than as a result of the ownership of our shares of common stock or other
securities as described in this prospectus and other than in connection with
providing the credit facility discussed in this prospectus. The shares offered
by this prospectus may be offered from time to time by Laurus. The percent of
beneficial ownership for Laurus is based on 4,257,601 shares of our common stock
outstanding as of May 31, 2006. Laurus may have acquired, sold or transferred,
in transactions exempt from registration requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, some or all of their common stock since the date as of which
the information in the table is presented. We are not making any representation
that any shares covered by this prospectus will or will not be offered for
resale. Laurus reserves the right to accept or reject, in whole or in part, any
proposed sale of shares.

          Information about Laurus may change over time. Any changed information
will be set forth in prospectus supplements. From time to time, additional
information concerning ownership of our common stock may rest with certain
holders thereof not named in the table below and of whom we are unaware.

(1)  The figures for the number of shares and the percentage of shares
     beneficially owned by Laurus after the offering are based on the assumption
     that Laurus will sell all of the shares registered for sale hereby. Because
     Laurus may offer all, some or none of the shares pursuant to this
     prospectus, and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or
     understandings with respect to the sale of any of the shares, no estimate
     can be given as to the number of shares that will be held by Laurus after
     completion of the sale of shares hereunder. See "Plan of Distribution" On
     page 37.

(2)  The number of shares being offered in this prospectus represent the maximum
     number of shares issuable in connection with the exercise of the conversion
     rights having exercise prices of $1.66 per share and option rights having
     an exercise price of $0.01 per, as such number may be adjusted upon the
     occurrence of dilutive events in accordance with Rule 416 under the
     Securities Act.

          Laurus has not informed us of its current plans with respect to the
disposition of shares of our common stock which are covered by this prospectus.

                    DESCRIPTION OF RIVIERA TOOL COMMON STOCK

          The following summary of our common stock is subject in all respects
to applicable Michigan law, our articles of incorporation and our by-laws. See
"Where You Can Find More Information" on page 3.

General

          The authorized capital stock of Riviera Tool consisted of 9,798,575
shares of common stock and 205,000 shares of preferred stock, no par value. As
of May 31, 2006, 4,257,601 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding
and no shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding. Our shares of
common stock, when issued in accordance with the various conversion rights and
option rights, will be validly issued and outstanding and will be fully paid and
non-assessable.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

          Continental Stock Transfer & Trust, 17 Battery Place, New York, New
York 10064 is the transfer agent and registrar of our common stock.

Board of Directors

          Our by-laws provide that the Board of Directors is divided into three
classes with each class elected for a three-year term. The Board currently
consists of four members.

Dividends

          We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock.
We presently intend to retain all future earnings for use in our business and do
not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable
future.

Michigan Anti-Takeover Laws

          Under Chapter 7A of the Michigan Business Corporation Act, "business
combinations" (defined to include, among other transactions, mergers,
consolidations, certain dispositions of assets or shares, and certain
recapitalizations) between certain corporations or their domestic subsidiaries
and an "interested shareholder" (defined as the direct or indirect beneficial
owner of at least 10% of the voting power of a covered corporation's outstanding
shares or an affiliate of the corporation which had such 10% ownership within
the preceding two years) can only be consummated if approved by at least 90% of
the votes of each class of the corporation's shares entitled to vote thereon and
by at least two-thirds of such votes not held by the interested shareholder or
its affiliates, unless certain price and other conditions imposed by Chapter 7A
are satisfied. The board of directors may elect to exempt business combinations
with a particular interested shareholder from the requirements of Chapter 7A at
any time before the interested shareholder attains that status.

          Under Chapter 7B of the Michigan Business Corporation Act, "control
shares" (defined to mean shares, which when added to all other shares of the
corporation owned by a person or with respect to which that person may exercise
or direct the exercise of voting power, would entitle that person, immediately
after the acquisition of the shares, to exercise or direct the exercise of
voting power in the election of directors in excess of threshold levels of 20%,
33 1/2% or a majority of all voting power) acquired in a "control share
acquisition" (defined to include the acquisition, directly or indirectly, by any
person of ownership of or the power to exercise the voting power with respect
to, issued and outstanding control shares) have the same voting rights as were
accorded the shares before the control share acquisition only to the extent
granted by resolution approved by the shareholders of the corporation. To have
such a resolution considered by the shareholders of the corporation, the
acquiring person must deliver an "acquiring person statement" to the corporation
and the Michigan Department of Commerce, Corporations, Securities and Land
Development Bureau. To be approved by the shareholders, the resolution must be
approved by a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the common stock and
a majority of the votes cast by the holders of shares of each class or series
entitled to vote thereon, excluding "interested shares" (defined to include
shares held by the acquiring person or member of his group, an officer of the
corporation and any director who is also an employee of the corporation). The
practical effect of Chapter 7B of the Michigan Business Corporation Act is to
require that a person making a tender offer for shares of a corporation
condition the offer on shareholder approval of the person's right to vote the
shares to be acquired.


                                       33



          If authorized by a corporation's articles of incorporation or bylaws,
control shares acquired in a control share acquisition with respect to which no
acquiring person statement has been filed may be redeemed by the corporation at
any time more than 60 days after the end of the control share acquisition at
"fair value." If authorized by the corporation's articles of incorporation or
bylaws, control shares acquired in a control share acquisition which are not
accorded full voting rights may be redeemed by the corporation at "fair value."
Unless otherwise provided in the corporation's articles of incorporation or
bylaws, in the event that control shares acquired in a control share acquisition
are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired a majority
of all voting power of the corporation, the shareholders of the corporation,
other than the acquiring person, have dissenters' rights. "Fair value" means a
value not less than the highest price paid per share by the acquiring person in
the control share acquisition.

          The provisions of Chapter 7B automatically apply to us, although our
board of directors or our shareholders may elect to remove us from the
application of Chapter 7B. Our board of directors has no plans to elect to
remove such application and is not aware of any plans or proposals to do so.
Further, none of the provisions discussed above has been included in our
Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.

          The foregoing discussion concerning the provisions of the Michigan
Business Corporation Act is qualified in its entirety by reference to such
Michigan Business Corporation Act provisions.

Securities and Exchange Commission on Indemnification

          Our by-laws provide for a broad right for indemnification for any
person who is or was involved in any manner in any threatened, pending, or
completed investigation, claim, action, suit, or proceeding by reason of the
fact that the person had agreed to become a director, officer, employee, or
agent of our company.

          Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of
the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission this type of
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
liabilities arising under the Securities Act (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by any director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of the submitted issue.

Voting Rights

          Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote in the election of
directors and other matters. Common stockholders are not entitled to preemptive
or cumulative voting rights.

Registration Rights

          In connection with the Agreements, we entered into a Registration
Rights Agreement with Laurus on May 17, 2005 (the "Registration Rights
Agreement") pursuant to which we agreed to provide Laurus with registration
rights for their shares of our common stock. Under the terms of the Registration
Rights Agreement, we are obligated to file an additional registration statement
registering the resale of shares of the common stock issuable upon the exercise
of conversion rights granted pursuant to an additional minimum borrowing note
evidencing an aggregate principal amount of up to $2,000,000 of loans made
pursuant to an additional minimum borrowing note. If the registration statement
is not filed within 60 days following the date of the funding of such additional
tranches of loans, or declared effective within 60 days thereafter, or if the
registration is suspended other than as permitted in the Registration Rights
Agreement, we are obligated to pay Laurus certain fees and certain obligations
may be deemed to be in default.


                                       34



                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

          Laurus and any of our pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest
may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any
stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in
private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. Laurus
may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

          -    ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the
               broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

          -    block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the
               shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the
               block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

          -    purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the
               broker-dealer for its account;

          -    an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the
               applicable exchange;

          -    privately negotiated transactions;

          -    broker-dealers may agree with Laurus to sell a specified number
               of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

          -    a combination of any such methods of sale;

          -    through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging
               transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
               or

          -    any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

          Laurus may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of
1933, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

          Broker-dealers engaged by Laurus may arrange for other brokers-dealers
to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts
from Laurus (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares,
from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. Laurus does not expect these
commissions and discounts relating to its sales of shares to exceed what is
customary in the types of transactions involved.

          In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein,
Laurus may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other
financial institutions. Laurus may also enter into option or other transactions
with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or
more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or
other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares
such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this
prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

          Laurus and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling
the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the
Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions
received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the
shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or
discounts under the Securities Act. Laurus has informed us that it does not have
any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to
distribute our common stock.

          We have agreed to indemnify Laurus against certain losses, claims,
damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

          Because Laurus may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning
of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act. In addition, any securities covered by this
prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act
may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. Laurus has advised
us that it has not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements
with any underwriter or broker-dealer regarding the sale of the shares. There is
no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed
sale of the shares by Laurus.


                                       35



         We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i)
the date on which all the shares have been sold or (ii) the date on which the
shares may be sold immediately without registration under the Securities Act and
without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k), as determined by our
counsel. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed
brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In
addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have
been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption
from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied
with.

          Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any
person engaged in the distribution of the shares may not simultaneously engage
in market making activities with respect to our common stock for a period of two
business days prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, Laurus
will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of
purchases and sales of shares of our common stock by Laurus or any other person.
We will make copies of this prospectus available to Laurus and have informed
them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or
prior to the time of the sale.

          We will pay all expenses associated with filing and maintaining the
effectiveness of this registration statement. With the exception of any
brokerage fees and commission which are the obligation of Laurus, we are
responsible for the fees, costs and expenses of this offering which are
estimated to be $75,000, inclusive of our legal and accounting fees, printing
costs, "blue sky," filing and other miscellaneous fees and expenses.

                                  LEGAL MATTERS

          Certain legal matters with respect to the validity of our common stock
will be passed upon for us by Law Weathers & Richardson, P.C., 800 Bridgewater
Place, 333 Bridge Street N.W., Grand Rapids, Michigan, 49504. Law Weathers &
Richardson, P.C. does not have any interests in us and has never been employed
by us on a contingent basis.

                                     EXPERTS

          The financial statements as of August 31, 2005 and 2004, and for each
of the three years in the period ended August 31, 2005, included in this
prospectus have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered
public accounting firm, as stated in their report appearing herein (which report
expresses an unqualified opinion on the financial statements and includes an
explanatory paragraph referring to matters that raise a substantial doubt our
ability to continue as a going concern) and have been so included in reliance
upon the report of such firm given upon their authority as experts in accounting
and auditing.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL
DISCLOSURE

          We have had no disagreements on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures with
any of our accountants for the year ended August 31, 2005.

          On January 13, 2006, Deloitte & Touche LLP ("D&T") informed us that
D&T was resigning as our independent outside auditor. We immediately began our
process to find another suitable independent outside auditor and D&T agreed to
assist us in our transition to such new independent auditor.

          The reports of D&T on our financial statements for each of the two
fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and 2004 did not contain an adverse opinion,
disclaimer of opinion nor was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope, or accounting principles, except for the reports were modified to reflect
substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. In
connection with the audits of our financial statements for each of the two
fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and 2004, and through the filing of our
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, there were
(1) no disagreements with D&T on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure,
which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of D&T, would have caused D&T to make
reference to the matter in its reports and (2) no reportable events. During each
of the two fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and 2004, and through the filing
of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, no
information is required to be reported under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation
S-K.

          On February 14, 2006, our Board of Directors announced the appointment
of BDO Seidman, LLP as our independent auditor.

                              RIVIERA TOOL COMPANY
                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  MAY 31, 2006

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements (the
"Financial Statements") of Riviera Tool Company (the "Company") have been
prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the Financial Statements do
not include all the information and footnotes normally included in the annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. The August 31, 2005 amounts are derived from the audited financial
statements as of and for the year ended August 31, 2005 contained herein on page
F-8

In the opinion of management, the Financial Statements reflect all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly
such information in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K dated
November 30, 2005, for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2005.

The Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in
the normal course of business. During fiscal 2005, the Company sustained a loss
from operations of $498,282 and a net loss of $2,502,248. This loss resulted in
an accumulated deficit of $13,148,735 as of August 31, 2005. These factors,
among other things, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. For the three-month and nine-month periods ended
May 31, 2006, the Company had net income of $18,390 and a net loss of $557,764,
respectively. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating
to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the
amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company believes that the revolving line of credit and the funds generated
from operations, will be sufficient to cover anticipated cash needs for the
foreseeable future. However, depending on the Company's level of future sales,
terms of such sales, financial performance and cash flow of existing contracts
such financing may not be sufficient to support operations. Therefore, the
Company may be required to seek additional sources of funding.

The results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended May
31, 2006 may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Riviera Tool Company
Grand Rapids, Michigan

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Riviera Tool Company (the
"Company") as of August 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of
operations, common stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended August 31, 2005. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Riviera Tool Company as of August 31, 2005
and 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended August 31, 2005 in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Riviera
Tool Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements, at August 31, 2005, the Company has significant current
debt, was not in compliance with certain terms of its debt agreements, and had
losses from operations and a retained deficit that raise substantial doubt about
its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's discussion concerning
these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                              RIVIERA TOOL COMPANY
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 -- NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF BUSINESS.

     Riviera Tool Company (the "Company") designs, develops and manufactures
     custom and complex large scale metal stamping die systems used in the
     high-speed production of sheet metal stamped parts and assemblies for the
     automotive industry. These systems are mainly sold to DaimlerChrysler, Ford
     Motor Company, General Motors Corporation, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and their
     tier one suppliers of sheet metal stamped parts and assemblies.

USE OF ESTIMATES.

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
     principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
     management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
     amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
     liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
     amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Although
     management believes the estimates are reasonable, actual results could
     differ from those estimates.

SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES.

     The most significant estimates made by the Company are in the determination
     and recognition of revenue on contracts in process. Management's best
     estimates of costs to complete are based on costs incurred, engineers' cost
     projections, experience with customers or particular die systems and other
     analyses. Although management's estimates are not expected to materially
     change in the near term, the costs the Company could ultimately incur could
     differ from the amounts estimated.

REVENUE RECOGNITION.

     The Company recognizes revenue on time and material contracts utilizing the
     completed-contract method. Revenue is recognized on all other contracts
     utilizing the percentage-of-completion method. Under the completed-contract
     method, the contract is considered complete when all costs have been
     incurred and the project has been approved by the customer. Under the
     percentage-of-completion method estimated contract earnings are based on
     total estimated contract profits multiplied by the ratio of labor hours
     incurred to total estimated labor hours on the contract. Provisions for
     total estimated losses on contracts in process are recognized in the period
     such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, conditions and
     estimated profitability may result in revisions to costs and income and are
     recognized in the period such revisions are determined.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE.

     As of August 31, 2004 and 2005, the Company had a $0 and $153,124 reserve
     for estimated uncollectible accounts receivable, and had $162,795 and
     $84,365 of unbilled accounts receivable (completed contracts for which
     revenue earned exceeds amounts billed), respectively.

INVENTORIES.

     Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method)
     or market.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT.

     Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is
     computed using the straight-line method over the useful life of the asset
     for financial reporting purposes as follows:


                                      F-13

     Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
     incurred. The Company capitalizes interest cost associated with
     construction in process. There was no capitalized interest in 2003, 2004
     and 2005.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS.

     The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment if changes in
     circumstances or the occurrence of events suggest the remaining value may
     not be recoverable. An asset is deemed impaired and written down to its
     fair value if estimated related total future undiscounted cash flows are
     less than its book (carrying) value. The Company, in performing its
     evaluation of long-lived assets for impairment, utilized financial
     projections for five future years including total undiscounted cash flow.
     The analysis concluded that the estimated total undiscounted future cash
     flows were in excess of the carrying value of long-lived assets. Had the
     analysis concluded that the total undiscounted future cash flows been below
     the carrying value, an impairment charge of the difference between the
     carrying value and the lower of the total discounted cash flows or fair
     value would have been recorded.

PERISHABLE TOOLING.

     Perishable tools are generally used up over five years, reported at cost as
     non-current assets in the balance sheet and amortized evenly over their
     useful lives.

INCOME TAXES.

     Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences
     between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities
     that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Such
     deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based upon enacted
     tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the differences are
     expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established
     when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be
     realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the
     period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets
     and liabilities.

EARNINGS PER SHARE.

     Basic earnings per share ("EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by
     dividing earnings/(loss) available to common stockholders by the
     weighted-average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS
     reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other
     contracts to issue common stock were exercised. Diluted EPS is computed by
     increasing the weighted average number of shares outstanding by the
     dilutive effect, if any, of the issuance of common stock for options
     outstanding under the 1996 Incentive Employee Stock Option Plan, as
     amended, 1998 Key Employee Stock Option Plan, convertible debt and the
     other non-employee options. Weighted average shares issuable upon the
     exercise of stock options that were not included in the (loss) earnings per
     share calculations were 650,000 in the period ended August 31, 2005.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION.

     The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
     ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-based Compensation," and as
     permitted by this standard, will continue to apply the recognition and
     measurement principles prescribed under Accounting Principles Board Opinion
     No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", to its stock-based
     compensation (see Note 10). No stock-based compensation cost is

NOTE 1 -- NATURE OF BUSINESS  AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - CONTINUED.

     reflected in net income (loss), as all options granted under its plan had
     an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock
     on the date of grant. Had the Company applied the fair value recognition
     principles of SFAS No. 123, there would be no impact on net income (loss)
     as of August 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005.

BUSINESS SEGMENT REPORTING.

     Based on the nature of its operations and products, the Company considers
     its business to be a single operating segment.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS.

     In December, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123 (R),
     "Share-Based Payments" that will require compensation costs related to
     share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial
     statements. With limited exceptions, the amount of compensation cost will
     be measured based on the grant date fair value of the equity or liability
     instruments issued. In addition, liability awards will be re-measured each
     reporting period. Compensation costs will be recognized over the period
     that an employee provides services in exchange for the award. SFAS No. 123
     (R) replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and
     supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
     Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations. SFAS No. 123 (R)
     becomes effective at the beginning of our fiscal year ending August 31,
     2006. We expect that the impact of adopting SFAS No. 123 (R) will not be
     material.

NOTE 2 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. During 2005, the Company sustained
a loss from operations of $498,282 and a net loss of $2,502,248. This loss
resulted in an accumulated deficit of $13,148,735 as of August 31, 2005. These
factors, among other things, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset
amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company believes that the revolving line of credit and the funds generated
from operations, will be sufficient to cover anticipated cash needs through
fiscal 2006. However, depending on Company's primary lenders' willingness to
extend the due date of the overadvance facility as well as the level of future
sales, terms of such sales, financial performance and cash flow of existing
contracts such financing may not be sufficient to support operations. Therefore,
the Company may be required to seek additional sources of funding.

NOTE 3 -- SALES TO MAJOR CUSTOMERS

The nature of the Company's business is such that a limited number of customers
comprise a majority of its business in any given year, even though the specific
customers will differ from year to year. The following table summarizes the
Company's sales to customers that represent more than 10% of the annual sales,
in the particular year presented, of the Company (in 000's):

Outstanding account receivables from three of these customers represented
approximately 90 percent and 60 percent at August 31, 2004 and 2005 of the total
accounts receivable, respectively.

During the year ended August 31, 2005, Gestamp Alabama ("Gestamp"), the alleged
successor to Oxford Automotive, Inc. ("Oxford") and Mercedes-Benz U.S.
International, Inc. ("MBUSI") brought a civil action against the Company. On
August 1, 2005, the Company reached a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release
with Gestamp and MBUSI. Under such settlement, Gestamp and MBUSI paid certain
claims against the Company by its' subcontactors and the Company has agreed to
provide certain services to Gestamp and MBUSI over the next three years. The
value of such services total $1.8 million which was accrued and expensed in
fiscal 2004 and is recorded as a liability of the Company on its August 31, 2005
balance sheet.

On May 17, 2005, the Company executed a new senior loan facility agreement with
Laurus Master Fund LTD. ("Laurus"). Under such financing, the Company entered
into a Securities Purchase Agreement and a Security Agreement (collectively, the
"Agreements"). Pursuant to these agreements, the Company received a Secured
Convertible Term Loan (the "Term Loan") in the aggregate principal amount of
$3.2 million as well as a Revolving Credit Note (the "Revolving Facility") with
a maximum availability of $10.0 million. The Agreement is subject to certain
restrictions and various covenants, including a borrowing base formula of ninety
percent of eligible accounts receivable and fifty percent of the lesser of
work-in-process inventory or $5 million. The Term Loan monthly installments may
be paid in Company common stock if the average closing price of the Company's
common stock for five trading days prior to due date is greater or equal to 115%
of the fixed conversion price ($1.66) and the amount of such conversion does not
exceed 25% of the aggregate trading dollar volume of the Company's common stock
for the period of 22 trading days immediately preceding such amortization date.
The Revolving Facility shall be convertible by Laurus into shares of the
Company's common stock at a rate of $1.66 per share. In addition, the Company
issued an option to purchase 650,000 shares of its Common Stock at an exercise
price of $.01.

Laurus has agreed that it shall not convert either the Term Loan or any loans
under the Revolving Facility into shares of the Company's Common Stock in
amounts that would cause it to obtain an aggregate beneficial ownership of the
Company's Common Stock exceeding 4.99% at any given time (or 19.99% in the event
such limitation is suspended upon the occurrence of an "event of default" under
any of the Agreements or any other transaction agreements). The Company and
Laurus agreed to customary terms and conditions including, but not limited to,
the filing of a registration statement within 60 days from the date of the
Agreements of shares of the Company's Common Stock issuable (i) upon exercise of
the Option, (ii) upon conversion of the Term Loan, and (iii) upon conversion of
up to $2.0 million under the Revolving Facility. The Company has an obligation
to register an additional $2.0 million under the Revolving Facility upon
issuance by the Company of an additional note evidencing such indebtedness.

The Company used the proceeds from the Term Loan, Revolving Facility and
Overformula to extinguish, in full, its indebtedness owed to Comerica Bank, its
former secured lender, and The HillStreet Fund II, L.P., its subordinated
secured lender, as well as for general working capital purposes. In connection
with the transactions described herein, Laurus received fees and was reimbursed
by the Company for its expenses in the aggregate amount of $510,200.

The Company, in issuing an option for 650,000 shares at $.01 per share,
triggered price protection in relationship to previously issued warrants. Under
the previous warrant agreements, if the Company issued warrants or options

below the strike price, the exercise price of the outstanding warrants would
adjust to the lower exercise price. The Company had previous warrants for
315,792 shares of common stock with 157,896 shares priced at an exercise price
of $5.07 per share and 157,896 priced at $5.53 per share. Of these warrants,
210,528 shares were exercised during 2005.

Effective November 10, 2005, the company received a waiver of noncompliance with
Section 3 of its security agreement with its lender such that the overadvance
loan shall not trigger an event of default and extending the overadvance loan
through January 31, 2006.

Minimum scheduled principal payments on long-term debt to maturity as of August
31, 2005, are as follows:

NOTE 9 -- OPERATING LEASES

On June 26, 2003, the Company renegotiated its operating lease for its
manufacturing and office facilities. The new noncancellable lease began November
1, 2003 and expires on October 31, 2018. The agreement provides for annual lease
payments plus an escalation of approximately $.14 per square foot for the lease
term. The Company has an option to renew this lease for an additional 10-year
term at a rate based upon the then prevailing market rates for similar-type
properties.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that rent expense related to
this type of lease be recognized ratably over the term of the lease. The
difference between the rent payments made and the amount of expense recognized
has been recorded as accrued lease expense (a liability). For the year ended
August 31, 2003, the cash payments made exceeded the lease expense by $35,045.
For the years ended August 31, 2004 and 2005, the lease expense exceeded the
cash payments by $100,204 and $156,990, respectively. The Company has various
operating leases, including the noncancellable operating lease noted above, for
facilities that expire during the next 15 years. Rent expense under these leases
for the years ended August 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 amounted to $1,120,250,
$1,098,955, and $1,155,522, respectively.

The following is a schedule of future minimum rent payments required under
operating leases that have initial or remaining noncancellable lease terms in
excess of one year as of August 31, 2005.

NOTE 10 -- RETIREMENT PLANS

The Company has a profit-sharing plan that covers substantially all employees.
The plan includes a 401(k) deferred-compensation option. The plan, as
established, allows for discretionary contributions as determined annually by
the Company's Board of Directors. No discretionary contribution was made for the
years-ended August 31, 2003, 2004, and 2005. The Company also matches and
contributes up to 15 percent of the employees' contributions, up to 2% of an
employee's annual wage. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company, until further
notice, suspended its matching share of the employees' contribution.

The Company has an Executive Deferred Compensation Plan with an officer who
retired December 31, 2004. Under the plan, upon the earlier of death or
termination of executive's employment with the Company on or after attainment of
age 65, the Company shall pay to the executive, his heirs and assignees a
retirement benefit equal to $50,000 per year for five years. The retirement
benefit will commence on the first day of the second month following the death
or termination of his employment with the Company on or after attainment of age
65. The retirement benefit shall continue with four additional payments of
$50,000 each. Death of the executive after the commencement of payments shall
not reduce or eliminate subsequent payments due. At the time of retirement, the
Company had a key-man life insurance policy for $250,000 on such executive.
During fiscal 2005, the Company transferred such policy to the retired
individual based upon a value of $100,000. In addition, the Company paid
$107,840 during fiscal 2005 to such retiree and is scheduled to retire the
remaining liability of $42,160 in fiscal 2006.

NOTE 11 -- STOCK OPTION PLANS

The Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plan") was adopted by the
Board of Directors and approved by the stockholders on October 31, 1996. Under
the Option Plan, 250,000 shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance and
are intended to qualify as incentive stock options under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended. Stock options granted to Company personnel under the
option plan are at exercise prices equal to the market value of the stock on the
date of grant. The options vest one year from the date of option grant and the
recipients must be employed by the Company at the time of exercise.

The Company's 1998 Key Employee Stock Option Plan (the "Key Option Plan") was
adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by the stockholders on December
16, 1998. Under the Key Option Plan, 200,000 shares of Common Stock were
reserved for issuance and do not qualify as incentive stock options under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Stock options granted to Company
personnel and Directors under the option plan are at exercise prices equal to
the market value of the stock on the date of grant. The options vest one year
from the date of option grant and recipients must be employed by the Company at
the time of exercise.

As permitted by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-based Compensation," the
Company continues to apply the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25, which recognizes compensation expense under the intrinsic value method.
The compensation cost, estimated under the fair value-based method defined in
SFAS No. 123, was not significant.

A summary of the status of the Option Plan and Key Option Plan during the years'
presented is as follows (no stock options were granted previous to fiscal 1999
under the 1996 Stock Option Plan and the 1998 Key Employee Stock Option Plan):

NOTE 12 -- WARRANTS AND OPTION

On March 16, 2004, the Company sold 394,737 shares of common stock in a private
placement with four accredited investors for $1,500,000. In connection with this
purchase, the Company issued Series A Warrants for eighty percent warrant
coverage of the initial shares purchased (315,792 shares) with half of such
warrants having an exercisable price of 110% of the average of the 20
consecutive Closing Prices immediately prior to the March 16, 2004 (exercise
price of $5.07 per share) and the other half with an exercise price of 120% of
the average of the 20 consecutive Closing Prices immediately prior to the March
16, 2004 (exercise price of $5.53 per share). Such Series A Warrants are
exercisable for five years commencing six months from the Closing date. In
addition, the Company issued Series A Warrants to purchase up to 20,000 shares
of common stock at the same price to the broker of the transaction.

In conjunction with the May 17, 2005 senior loan facility agreement, the Company
issued options to purchase 650,000 shares at $.01 per share. The issuance of the
650,000 share option triggered a price protection clause related to the above
issued warrants. Such price protection was to expire in September of 2005. Under
the warrant agreements, if the Company issued warrants or options below the
strike price ($5.07 and $5.53), the exercise price of the outstanding warrants
would adjust to the lower exercise price. Of these warrants, 210,528 shares were
exercised during 2005.
