09/02/2010 STORM ALERT ORANGE MacLean Power Systems has elevated our storm alert to orange. Orange alert indicates: A major storm is in progress, and we are on alert for potential major outages. MPS will focus on shipping/producing storm orders, but will continue normal shipping and production operations provided it does not interfere with Storm Alert. We have placed a hold on shipping the key Storm Material from all locations. We are preparing for receiving significant storm orders. We will expedite open orders and ship LTL, ahead of the storm, to major customers that have a contract with MPS. The potential is high that material due to ship to open orders outside of the potential storm area may be held until further notice. The latest prediction as the outer banks of North Carolina at greatest risk of high winds and the potential for 39 mph winds up the entire eastern coast. We are prepared to support the restoration needs of that region. We will update further as the storm progresses.
