7SprayCool Technology - IP
- Products have delivered strong performance both
commercial and government Data Center market
tests indicate significant lead over competition - Government 10 successful programs in all
branches of US military including Air Force,
Army, Marine Corp and Navy PNNL committed to
over 400K in SprayCool solutions - Commercial Two base Data Center tests documented
over 250 increase in computing processing
capacity for SprayCool configured Data Centers1 - Aggressive patent strategy has secured ISR
differentiation by protecting core technologies
that provide efficient transfer of heat - 20 issued patents including Heat Exchanger,
Atomization Apparatus Cooling System
Evaporative Spray - 48 patents pending including Commercial Active
Venting System - 8 International filings
- 480 disclosures
- Detailed intellectual property plan in place to
defend assets and ISR competitive advantage for
the future leveraging 500 man years of work
8Current Design Challenges
- Constantly increasing processor performance
- More electric aircraft/vehicle initiatives
- New and existing platforms are weight, volume and
power challenged - Electronics are constantly exposed to harsh
environments - Life cycle costs are critical to a programs
success
9Government Division
ISRs has a strong foothold in the Government
sector, having delivered award winning results in
10 major programs
100MM government contracts have been awarded to
ISR under Sole Source status
10Rugged Integrated Battlefield Server (RIBS)
- Army Battlefield Server
- Runs high end Sensor Data Software
- Deployed and operating in Afghanistan via 10th
Mountain Division
11System Performance
- Enables the highest density of processing per
unit of volume / weight / power / price when
compared to traditional methods
U-2 Spy Plane
Global Hawk Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
12Environmental Isolation
- Electronics are sealed and thus isolated from
harsh military / aerospace environment - SprayCool eliminates exposure to sand, humidity,
salt spray, etc. which has a direct correlation
with electronics failures

15ISR Workforce by Division
260 Total Employees 22 work in
Manufacturing
16ISR Workforce by Education
85 of workforce have a secondary education
beyond high school Over 65 of workforce have a
Bachelors degree or better
17ISR Manufacturing Workforce Trends 2005-2006
- Trends in Manufacturing
- 30 Increase in Engineering Professional roles
Most Bachelors and Masters Degree - 18 Decrease in Technical Assembly roles Most
Associates and Technical Degrees - Technical talent is becoming more difficult to
find
18- Education and encouragement of Washington State
youth is highly important to the success of our
State and Country. Increasing tuitions
decreasing grants are one cause of decreased
enrollment and could be offset by the State. - Washington State has a NON business friendly tax,
workers comp., unemployment insurance, minimum
wage and overall cost of doing business
environment compared to neighboring States
particularly Idaho. Of all the major
manufacturers to move into our region in the last
couple years they have moved into the Idaho side
of the border (Buck Knives, Sysco) vs. the
Washington, State side due to these factors. - Demographic trends as Boomers start to retire may
create an even greater shortage of technical
workers than diminishing college enrollments
would indicate.

23Policy Implications for WA State Manufacturing
- Encourage product-based new business development
leveraging technology competencies within the
state - ISR data shows that during the research and
product development phases, these new businesses
will create a demand for local small to medium
sized manufacturing - Support existing WA state manufacturing
businesses to retain their technical and
manufacturing competitiveness - ISR data shows that companies will seek out world
class suppliers wherever they are located
