                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

     This summary may not contain all of the information that may be important
to you. You should read the entire prospectus, including our consolidated
financial statements and related notes, before making an investment decision.

                       GLOBAL POWER EQUIPMENT GROUP INC.

     We are a global designer, engineer and manufacturer of a comprehensive
portfolio of equipment for gas turbine power plants, with over 30 years of power
generation industry experience. We believe that we are a leader in our industry,
offer one of the broadest ranges of gas turbine power plant equipment in the
world and hold the number one or number two market position by sales in a
majority of our product lines. Our equipment is installed in power plants in
more than 30 countries on six continents and we believe that we have one of the
largest installed bases of gas turbine power plant equipment in the world. In
addition, we provide our customers with value-added services including
engineering, retrofit and upgrade, and maintenance and repair.

     According to the Energy Information Administration, or EIA, U.S. demand for
electricity has increased substantially since 1990, while generating capacity
has remained relatively flat. To correct this imbalance, the EIA estimates that
1,300 new power generation plants with approximately 390 gigawatts of electrical
generation capacity will be needed in the United States by 2020.
Internationally, the International Energy Agency, or IEA, estimates that
significant new capacity is necessary to keep pace with worldwide demand, which
is expanding at more than twice the rate of U.S. demand. Of the various power
generation alternatives, gas turbine technology is well-positioned to benefit
from the need for new and more efficient power generation infrastructure. Based
on IEA projections, approximately 90% of new U.S. generation capacity and
approximately 51% of new generation capacity outside the United States, net of
retirements, through 2020 will employ gas turbine technology.

     We sell our products to the gas turbine power generation market, the
fastest growing segment of the power generation industry. Our products are
critical to the efficient operation of gas turbine power plants and are highly
engineered to meet customer-specific requirements. Our products include:

     - heat recovery steam generators;

     - filter houses;

     - inlet systems;

     - gas and steam turbine enclosures;

     - exhaust systems;

     - diverter dampers; and

     - specialty boilers and related products.

We market and sell our products globally under the Deltak, Braden and
Consolidated Fabricators brand names through our worldwide sales network.

     We believe that our design and engineering capabilities differentiate us
from our competitors. In addition, our network of exclusive subcontractors,
located throughout 30 countries, allows us to manufacture equipment for power
plant projects worldwide at competitive prices. Our subcontractors also enable
us to meet increasing demand without being restricted by manufacturing capacity
limitations, thus limiting our capital expenditure requirements. By providing
high-quality products on a timely basis and offering a broad range of equipment,
we have forged long-standing relationships with the leading power industry
participants, including General Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries,
Siemens-Westinghouse, Bechtel and Duke Power.

     Our revenues have grown from $142.7 million in fiscal year 1997 to $416.6
million in fiscal year 2000, representing a compound annual growth rate of
42.9%. To continue this growth and maximize shareholder value, we will continue
to pursue the following objectives:

     - expand our leading market position in the high-growth U.S. market;

     - leverage our presence in the emerging international power markets;
                                        1
   6

     - pursue strategic acquisitions which will increase our market share in
       existing product lines, broaden our overall product offering and expand
       our geographic reach; and

     - leverage our design and engineering capabilities to expand our product
       lines and to capture a larger share of our customers' total equipment
       purchases.

BACKGROUND

     On June 5, 1998, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. acquired Jason Incorporated's power
generation division. In August 2000, investment entities controlled by Harvest
Partners, Inc. acquired a controlling interest in GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. through
a recapitalization of the company. This recapitalization resulted in the
entities controlled by Harvest Partners, Inc. owning 81.5% of the outstanding
equity interests in GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. and having a majority of the votes on
its board of directors. For additional information on this transaction, see
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- Overview."

     In October 2000, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. acquired CFI Holdings, Inc.,
including its subsidiary, Consolidated Fabricators, Inc.

     Immediately prior to the completion of this offering, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C.
will complete a reorganization. As part of this reorganization, the holders of
common and preferred membership units of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. will exchange
their units for shares of our common stock and GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. will merge
into us, Global Power Equipment Group Inc. As a result, we will be the successor
to GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. For additional information on the reorganization, see
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- The Reorganization Transaction."

     Unless this prospectus indicates otherwise or the context otherwise
requires, the terms "we," "our," "us" and "Global Power Equipment Group," as
used in this prospectus refer to (1) the power generation division of Jason
Incorporated for periods prior to June 5, 1998; (2) GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. and
its subsidiaries for the period from June 5, 1998 until completion of the
reorganization; and (3) Global Power Equipment Group Inc. and its subsidiaries
after the reorganization.

     Our fiscal year ends on the last Saturday in December. As a result,
references in this prospectus to fiscal year 1998 refer to the fiscal year ended
December 26, 1998, references to fiscal year 1999 refer to the fiscal year ended
December 25, 1999, references to fiscal year 2000 refer to the fiscal year ended
December 30, 2000, references to first quarter of fiscal year 2000 refer to the
three months ended March 25, 2000 and references to first quarter of fiscal year
2001 refer to the three months ended March 31, 2001. References in this
prospectus to results of operations for fiscal year 1998 refer to the combined
results of (1) Jason Incorporated's power generation division for the period
from December 27, 1997 through June 4, 1998 and (2) GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. from
June 5, 1998 through December 26, 1998.

     Our principal executive offices are located at 6120 South Yale, Suite 1480,
Tulsa, Oklahoma 74136. Our telephone number at that location is (918) 488-0828.

---------------

(1) In fiscal year 2000, we incurred a non-recurring recapitalization charge
    associated with the cancellation of options outstanding as of the closing
    date of the August 2000 recapitalization.


(2) EBITDA, as adjusted, represents income (loss) before extraordinary item,
    interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and recapitalization charge.
    EBITDA, as adjusted, is presented because we believe that it is frequently
    used by security analysts in the evaluation of companies. EBITDA, as
    adjusted, should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from
    operating activities, as a measure of liquidity, as an alternative to net
    income, as an indicator of operating performance, or as an alternative to
    any other measure of performance in accordance with generally accepted
    accounting principles. Our EBITDA, before adjusting for the recapitalization
    charge, was $8.0 million for fiscal year 2000.


(3) Extraordinary item represents a $1.5 million loss on extinguishment of debt
    in August 2000.

(4) Does not include an extraordinary loss of approximately $7.5 million ($12.3
    million less the associated tax benefit of $4.8 million) resulting from the
    write-off of deferred financing costs and debt discount as well as
    prepayment premiums relating to the repayment of long-term debt. This amount
    will be charged to earnings in the quarter in which the debt is repaid. We
    anticipate repaying the debt in the second quarter of fiscal year 2001.

(5) Working capital represents current assets (excluding cash and cash
    equivalents) less current liabilities (excluding current maturities of
    long-term debt).

(6) Goodwill represents the costs of acquisitions in excess of the fair value of
    the net assets acquired and is amortized using the straight-line method over
    30 years.

                                  RISK FACTORS

     You should carefully consider the following risk factors and other
information appearing in this prospectus before buying our common stock.

RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY

SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF OUR REVENUES ARE FROM SALES OF EQUIPMENT FOR GAS TURBINE
POWER PLANTS. IF CONSTRUCTION OF NEW GAS TURBINE POWER PLANTS WERE TO DECLINE,
THE MARKET FOR OUR PRODUCTS WOULD BE SIGNIFICANTLY DIMINISHED.

     The demand for our products and services depends on the continued
construction of gas turbine power generation plants. In fiscal year 2000,
approximately 91% of our revenues, and in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001,
approximately 82% of our revenues, were from sales of equipment and provision of
services for gas turbine power plants. The power generation equipment industry
has experienced cyclical periods of slow growth or decline. In periods of
decreased demand for new gas turbine power plants, our customers may be more
likely to decrease expenditures on the types of products and systems that we
supply and, as a result, our sales may decrease. In addition, the gas turbine
power industry depends on natural gas. A rise in the price or shortage of
natural gas could reduce the profitability of gas turbine power plants, which
could adversely affect our sales.

     Environmental laws and regulations have played a part in the increased use
of gas turbine technology in various jurisdictions. These laws and regulations
may change or other jurisdictions may not adopt similar laws and regulations.
Changes in existing laws and regulations could result in a reduction in the
building and refurbishment of gas turbine power plants. In addition, stricter
environmental regulation could result in our customers seeking new ways of
generating electricity that do not require the use of our products. Furthermore,
although gas turbine power plants have lower emissions than coal-fired power
plants, emissions from gas turbine power plants remain a concern and attempts to
reduce or regulate emissions could increase the cost of gas turbine power plants
and result in our customers' switching to alternative sources of power.

     Other current power technologies, improvements to these technologies and
new alternative power technologies that compete or may compete in the future
with gas turbine power plants could affect our sales and profitability.
Furthermore, in fiscal year 2000, approximately 53% of our revenues, and in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2001, approximately 41% of our revenues, were from
sales of heat recovery equipment used in combined-cycle power plants. Any change
in the power generation industry which results in a decline in the construction
of new combined-cycle power plants or a decline in the upgrading of existing
simple-cycle power plants to combined-cycle ones could materially adversely
affect our sales.

     Because some of our contracts stipulate that customer progress payments be
made in advance of work performed, increases in overall sales volume typically
allow us to finance our business through these payments. Conversely, a prolonged
decline in our revenues could impair this ability.

A SMALL NUMBER OF MAJOR CUSTOMERS ACCOUNT FOR A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF OUR
REVENUES, AND THE LOSS OF ANY OF THESE CUSTOMERS COULD HARM US.


     We depend on a relatively small number of customers for a significant
portion of our revenues. In fiscal year 1998, two customers each represented
more than 10% of our revenues. In fiscal year 1999, three customers each
represented more than 10% of our revenues. In fiscal year 2000, two customers
each represented more than 10% of our revenues. Of these two customers, one
represented approximately 31% of our revenues and approximately 25% of our
backlog at the end of the year, while the other represented approximately 22% of
our revenues and approximately 14% of our backlog at the end of the year. In
addition, our five largest customers accounted for approximately 75% of our
revenues in fiscal year 2000 and approximately 66% of our backlog at the end of
the year. Other than their obligations under firm orders placed in our backlog,
none of our customers has a long-term contractual obligation to purchase any
material amounts of products from us. All of our firm orders contain
cancellation provisions which permit


                                        6
   11

us to recover only our costs and a portion of our anticipated profit in the
event a customer cancels its order. If a customer elects to cancel, we may not
realize the full amount of revenues included in our backlog. We expect to
continue to depend upon a relatively small number of customers for a significant
percentage of our revenues. Because our major customers represent a large part
of our business, the loss of any of our major customers could negatively impact
our business.

IF OUR COSTS EXCEED THE ESTIMATES WE USE TO SET THE FIXED PRICES OF OUR
CONTRACTS, OUR EARNINGS WILL BE REDUCED.

     We enter into all of our contracts on a fixed-price basis. As a result, we
benefit from cost savings, but have limited ability to recover for any cost
overruns. The costs that we incur in connection with each contract can vary,
sometimes substantially, from our original projections. Because of the large
scale and long duration of our contracts, unanticipated changes may occur, such
as customer budget decisions, design changes, delays in receiving permits and
cost increases, that may delay delivery of our products. In addition, under our
contracts, we often are subject to liquidated damages for late delivery.

     Unanticipated cost increases or delays may occur as a result of several
factors, including:

     - increases in the cost, or shortages, of components, materials or labor;

     - unanticipated technical problems;

     - required project modifications not initiated by the customer; and

     - suppliers' or subcontractors' failure to perform.

     Cost overruns that we cannot pass on to our customers or the payment of
liquidated damages under our contracts will lower our earnings.

COMPETITION COULD RESULT IN DECREASED SALES OR DECREASED PRICES FOR OUR PRODUCTS
AND SERVICES.

     Our products face and will continue to face significant competition.
Competition could result in a reduction in the demand for, or the prices that we
can charge for, our products and services. Our success is dependent in large
part on our ability to:

     - anticipate or respond quickly to our customers' needs and enhance and
       upgrade our existing products and services to meet those needs;

     - continue to price our products and services competitively and find low
       cost subcontractors that can produce quality products; and

     - develop new products and systems that are accepted by our customers and
       differentiated from our competitors' offerings.

     Our competitors may:

     - develop more desirable, efficient, environmentally friendly or less
       expensive products;

     - be willing to accept lower prices to protect strategic marketing
       positions or increase market share;

     - be better able to take advantage of acquisition opportunities; or

     - adapt more quickly to changes in customer requirements.

     As a result of our competitors' business practices, we may need to lower
our prices or devote significant resources to marketing our products in order to
remain competitive. Lower prices or higher costs would reduce our revenues and
our profitability.

                                        7
   12

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO CONTROL THE QUALITY OR TIMELY PRODUCTION OF PRODUCTS
MANUFACTURED FOR US BY SUBCONTRACTORS, OUR REPUTATION COULD BE ADVERSELY
AFFECTED AND WE COULD LOSE CUSTOMERS. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO RECOVER ANY ADVANCE
PROGRESS PAYMENTS MADE TO SUBCONTRACTORS, OUR PROFITABILITY WOULD BE ADVERSELY
AFFECTED.

     We rely on subcontractors to manufacture and assemble a substantial portion
of our products. In fiscal year 2000, we estimate that subcontractors accounted
for approximately 70% of our manufacturing costs. Although we have on-site
supervision of our subcontractors to review and monitor their quality control
systems, the quality and timing of their production is not totally under our
control. Our subcontractors may not always meet the level of quality control and
the delivery schedules required by our customers. The failure of our
subcontractors to produce quality products in a timely manner could adversely
affect our reputation and result in the cancellation of orders for our products
and the loss of customers.

     Furthermore, we make advance progress payments to subcontractors in
anticipation of their completion of our orders. In the event a subcontractor
fails to complete an order, we may be unable to recover those advances.

INVESTORS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PROJECT OUR FUTURE REVENUES BASED UPON THE DOLLAR
AMOUNT OF OUR BACKLOG.

     Customers may cancel or delay projects for reasons beyond our control and
we may be unable to replace any canceled orders with new orders. To the extent
projects were delayed, the timing of our revenues could be affected. If a
customer cancels an order, we may be reimbursed for incurred costs. Typically,
however, we have no contractual right to the full amount of the revenues that we
would have received if the order had not been canceled, which potential revenues
are reflected in our backlog. In addition, projects may remain in our backlog
for extended periods of time. Revenue recognition occurs over long periods of
time and is subject to unanticipated delays. Fluctuations in our quarterly
backlog levels also result from the fact that we may receive a small number of
relatively large orders in any given quarter that may be included in our
backlog. Because of these large orders, our backlog in that quarter may reach
levels that may not be sustained in subsequent quarters. Our backlog, therefore,
is not necessarily indicative of our future revenues.

IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR INVESTORS TO EVALUATE OUR PROSPECTS AND FOR US TO
ESTIMATE OUR FUTURE REVENUES AND PROFITS BECAUSE OUR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MAY
VARY SIGNIFICANTLY FROM QUARTER TO QUARTER.

     Our quarterly revenues and earnings have varied in the past and are likely
to vary in the future. Our contracts stipulate customer-specific delivery terms
which, coupled with other factors beyond our control that may occur at any time
over a contract cycle of up to a year or more, may result in uneven realization
of revenues and earnings over time. Due to our large average contract size, our
sales volume during any given period may be concentrated in relatively few
orders, intensifying the magnitude of these irregularities. Consequently our
quarterly performance may not be indicative of our success in achieving
year-over-year growth objectives. Furthermore, some of our operating costs are
fixed. As a result, we may have limited ability to reduce our operating costs in
response to unanticipated decreases in our revenues or the demand for our
products in any given quarter. Therefore, our operating results in any quarter
may not be indicative of our future performance, and it may be difficult for you
to evaluate our prospects. In addition, because we must make significant
estimates related to potential charges when we recognize revenue on a percentage
completion basis, we may have difficulty accurately estimating revenues and
profits from quarter to quarter.

COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS IS COSTLY, AND OUR ONGOING
OPERATIONS MAY EXPOSE US TO ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES.

     Our operations are subject to laws and regulations governing the discharge
of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the
environment or human health. These laws include U.S. federal statutes such as
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 or CERCLA, the

Clean Water Act and the Clean Air Act, and the regulations implementing them, as
well as similar laws and regulations at the state and local levels and in other
countries in which we operate.

     If we fail to comply with environmental laws or regulations, we may be
subject to significant liabilities for fines, penalties or damages, or lose or
be denied significant operating permits. In addition, some environmental laws,
including CERCLA, impose liability for the costs of investigating and
remediating releases of hazardous substances without regard to fault and on a
joint and several basis, so that in some circumstances we may be liable for
costs attributable to hazardous substances released into the environment by
others. Moreover, the environmental laws and regulations to which we are subject
are constantly changing, and we cannot predict the effect of these changes on
us.

A MALFUNCTION IN OUR PRODUCTS COULD RESULT IN UNANTICIPATED WARRANTY COSTS OR
PRODUCT LIABILITY NOT COVERED BY OUR INSURANCE WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR
FINANCIAL CONDITION OR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

     We provide warranties for terms of two years or less on our products. These
warranties require us to repair or replace faulty products. Warranty claims
could result in significant unanticipated costs. The need to repair or replace
products with design or manufacturing defects could also temporarily delay the
sale of new products and adversely affect our reputation.

     In addition, we may be subject to product liability claims involving claims
of personal injury or property damage. Because our products are used primarily
in power plants, claims could arise in different contexts, including the
following:

     - fires, explosions and power surges that can result in significant
       property damage or personal injury; and

     - equipment failure that can result in damage to other equipment in the
       power plant.

     If a very large product liability claim were sustained, our insurance
coverage might not be adequate to cover our defense costs and the amount
awarded. Additionally, a well-publicized actual or perceived problem could
adversely affect our reputation and reduce demand for our products.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO PROTECT THE PROPRIETARY DESIGN SOFTWARE PROGRAMS THAT WE USE
IN OUR BUSINESS AND THIRD PARTIES USED THEM TO DEVELOP PRODUCTS TO COMPETE
AGAINST OURS, OUR REVENUES WOULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

     We have developed several proprietary software programs to help us design
our products. Our ability to protect our proprietary rights to these programs is
important to our success. We protect these rights through the use of internal
controls and confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements and other legal
protections. The legal protections afforded to our proprietary rights and the
precautions taken by our company may not be adequate to prevent misappropriation
of our proprietary rights. We generally enter into non-disclosure and
confidentiality agreements with our employees and subcontractors with access to
sensitive design software and technology. However, these contractual protections
do not prevent independent third-parties from developing functionally equivalent
or superior technologies, programs, products or professional services. Third
parties may also infringe upon or misappropriate our proprietary rights and use
them to develop competing products. If we were required to commence legal
actions to enforce our intellectual property or proprietary rights or to defend
ourselves against claims that we are infringing on the intellectual property or
proprietary rights of others, we could incur substantial costs and divert
management's attention from operations.

THE LOSS OF THE SERVICES OF OUR KEY EXECUTIVE OFFICERS COULD HAVE A NEGATIVE
EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS.

     Our success depends to a significant extent on the continued services of
Larry Edwards, our president and chief executive officer, and Gary Obermiller
and Gene Schockemoehl, two of our senior executives. Our failure to retain the
services of Messrs. Edwards, Obermiller or Schockemoehl, or attract highly
qualified management in the future, could adversely affect our ability to grow
and manage our operations. Although we have employment agreements containing
non-competition clauses with Messrs. Edwards, Obermiller and Schockemoehl,
courts are sometimes reluctant to enforce these agreements. In addition,
                                        9
   14

although we carry key man life insurance for Messrs. Edwards, Obermiller and
Schockemoehl, the loss of their services could disrupt our operations.

OUR INABILITY TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN EMPLOYEES WHO FILL KEY REQUIREMENTS OF OUR
BUSINESS MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO SUSTAIN OR EXPAND OUR OPERATIONS.

     We must attract and retain highly qualified experienced mechanical, design,
structural and software engineers, service technicians, marketing and sales
personnel and other key personnel to expand our operations. If we are unable to
attract and retain necessary personnel, we may not be able to sustain or expand
our operations.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN OR EXPAND OUR BUSINESS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES
BECAUSE OF NUMEROUS FACTORS OUTSIDE OUR CONTROL.

     Our business outside the United States is subject to risks from:

     - labor unrest;

     - regional economic uncertainty;

     - political instability;

     - restrictions on the transfer of funds into or out of a country;

     - currency exchange rate fluctuations;

     - export duties and quotas;

     - expropriations;

     - domestic and foreign customs and tariffs;

     - current and changing regulatory environments; and

     - potentially adverse tax consequences.

     These factors may result in a decline in revenues or profitability and
could adversely affect our ability to expand our business outside the United
States.

IF WE WERE REQUIRED TO WRITE-OFF OR ACCELERATE THE AMORTIZATION OF OUR GOODWILL,
OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY COULD BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY
AFFECTED.

     As a result of our June 1998 acquisition of the power generation division
of Jason Incorporated and our October 2000 acquisition of CFI Holdings, Inc. and
its subsidiaries, we have approximately $45.5 million of goodwill recorded on
our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2001. We are amortizing the
goodwill on a straight-line basis over 30 years. The amount of goodwill that we
amortize in any given year is treated as a charge against earnings under
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. If we were
required to write-off our goodwill or accelerate the amortization of our
goodwill, our results of operations and stockholders' equity could be materially
adversely affected.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

HARVEST PARTNERS, INC. AND ITS AFFILIATES WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE SIGNIFICANT
INFLUENCE OVER OUR BUSINESS AFTER THIS OFFERING AND THEY MAY NOT ACT IN A MANNER
FAVORABLE TO OUR OTHER STOCKHOLDERS.

     Upon completion of this offering, affiliates of Harvest Partners, Inc. will
hold in the aggregate approximately 30.6% of our outstanding common stock. If
the underwriters' over-allotment is exercised in full, these affiliates will
hold approximately 29.7% of our outstanding common stock. In addition, two of
the directors that will serve on our board following this offering are
representatives of Harvest Partners, Inc. After this offering, Harvest Partners,
Inc. and its affiliates will continue to have a significant influence over all
matters submitted to our stockholders, including the election of our directors,
and will continue to

                                        10
   15

exercise significant influence over our business, policies and affairs. Such
concentration of voting power could have the effect of delaying, deterring or
preventing a change of control of our company or other business combination that
might otherwise be beneficial to stockholders.

PROVISIONS IN OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BY-LAWS COULD PREVENT CHANGES
IN OUR STRUCTURE OR CONTROL THAT OUR STOCKHOLDERS MAY PREFER.

     We will have authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock which may be
issued by the board of directors with rights, preferences and designations as
the board may determine without any vote of the stockholders. We will also have
a classified board of directors. Furthermore, our by-laws will (1) eliminate the
ability of stockholders to act by written consent; (2) require that special
meetings of stockholders may only be called by holders of more than 35% of our
common stock; and (3) set forth advance notice requirements that stockholders
must meet before submitting proposals to be considered at stockholder meetings.
These measures may have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change
in our control. In addition, "anti-takeover" provisions of the Delaware General
Corporation Law may restrict the ability of our stockholders to authorize a
merger, business combination or change of control.

YOU WILL PAY A PRICE FOR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK THAT WAS NOT ESTABLISHED IN A
COMPETITIVE MARKET AND THE PRICE THAT PREVAILS IN THE MARKET MAY BE LOWER.

     Before this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock.
We will apply to list our common stock for trading on the New York Stock
Exchange. After this offering, an active trading market for our common stock
might not develop or continue, which could negatively affect the market price of
our common stock.

     The market price of our common stock may decline below the initial public
offering price. The initial public offering price for our common stock will be
determined by negotiations between us and the representatives of the
underwriters and may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the
trading market. Furthermore, a prolonged decline in the market price of our
common stock could adversely affect our efforts to retain qualified employees if
the prevailing market price of our common stock remains below the exercise price
of employee stock options.

     In addition, the market price for our common stock may be subject to wide
fluctuations as a result of a variety of factors, including:

     - announcements of technological or competitive developments by third
       parties;

     - changes in estimates of our financial performance by securities analysts
       or changes in recommendations by securities analysts regarding us; and

     - changes in investor perceptions of the industry or any of our particular
       products or service.

     Because of this volatility, it is likely we will fail to meet the
expectations of our stockholders at some time in the future, resulting in a
decline in our stock price.

FUTURE SALES BY EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS COULD DEPRESS THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR
COMMON STOCK.

     Immediately after this offering there will be a total of 44,843,264 shares
of common stock outstanding. The shares of common stock held by substantially
all of our existing stockholders are subject to "lock-up" agreements that
prohibit them from selling their shares in the public market for 180 days after
the date of this prospectus. When the 180-day "lock-up" period expires or if
Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation and Salomon Smith Barney Inc. consent, in
their sole discretion, to an earlier sale, our existing stockholders will be
able to sell their shares in the public market, subject to some legal
restrictions. If our existing stockholders were to sell a large number of
shares, the market price of shares of our common stock could decline
dramatically. Moreover, the perception in the public market that these
stockholders might sell shares of common stock could depress the market price of
the common stock.

                                        11
   16

Furthermore, some of our existing stockholders have the right to require us to
register their shares in future offerings, which may facilitate their sales of
shares in the public market.

IF OUTSTANDING OR FUTURE OPTIONS ARE EXERCISED, OR IF WE ISSUE ADDITIONAL COMMON
STOCK AT PRICES LOWER THAN THE INITIAL OFFERING PRICE, YOU WILL EXPERIENCE
DILUTION IN THE NET TANGIBLE BOOK VALUE OF YOUR COMMON STOCK.

     As a purchaser of our common stock in this offering, you will incur
immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per ordinary
share of $16.74 from the price you pay for our common stock based on an assumed
initial public offering price of $17.00 per share (the midpoint of the range set
forth on the cover of this prospectus). Additionally, your ownership interest
will be further diluted if outstanding or future options to purchase our common
stock are exercised, or if we issue additional common stock at prices lower than
the initial offering price in connection with acquisitions or for other
purposes.

WE ANTICIPATE THAT THE COVENANTS CONTAINED IN OUR AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
FACILITY WILL LIMIT OUR ABILITY TO BORROW ADDITIONAL MONEY, SELL ASSETS AND MAKE
ACQUISITIONS. COMPLIANCE WITH THESE RESTRICTIONS AND COVENANTS MAY LIMIT OUR
ABILITY TO IMPLEMENT ELEMENTS OF OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY.

     We anticipate that our amended and restated senior credit facility will
contain a number of significant restrictions and covenants limiting our ability
and that of our subsidiaries to:

     - borrow more money or make capital expenditures;

     - incur liens;

     - pay dividends or make other restricted payments;

     - merge or sell assets;

     - enter into transactions with affiliates; and

     - make acquisitions.

     In addition, we anticipate that our amended and restated senior credit
facility will contain other restrictive covenants, including covenants that will
require us to maintain specified financial ratios, including leverage, interest
and fixed charge ratios and mandatory repayment provisions that will require us
to repay our indebtedness with proceeds from certain asset sales, certain debt
issuances and certain insurance casualty events. If we are unable to service our
indebtedness, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell
assets, restructure or refinance our indebtedness or seek additional equity
capital. Also, compliance with the restrictive covenants of our amended and
restated credit agreement may limit our ability to operate our business or
implement elements of our business strategy.

OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AUTHORIZES OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS, WITHOUT
STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL, TO ISSUE PREFERRED STOCK WHICH MAY HAVE RIGHTS, POWERS AND
PREFERENCES MORE FAVORABLE THAN THAT OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

     Our board of directors may determine the rights, preferences, privileges
and restrictions of unissued series of preferred stock without any vote or
authorization by our stockholders. Therefore, the board can authorize and issue
shares of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely
affect the voting or other rights of holders of our common stock. In addition,
the issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or
preventing a change of control of our company, because the terms of the
preferred stock that might be issued could potentially prohibit our consummation
of any merger, reorganization, sale of substantially all of our assets,
liquidation or other extraordinary corporate transaction without the approval of
our preferred stockholders.

WE ARE EXPOSED TO MARKET RISKS FROM CHANGES IN INTEREST AND FOREIGN CURRENCY
EXCHANGE AND THE CONVERSION BY EUROPEAN UNION NATIONS TO THE EURO CURRENCY.

     We are subject to market risks from changes in interest rates. We
anticipate that our amended and restated senior credit facility will bear
interest, at our option, at either the eurodollar rate or an alternate base rate
plus, in each case, an applicable margin. Assuming our current level of
borrowings, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates under these borrowings
would increase our interest expense for fiscal year 2000 by approximately $1.5
million without taking into account our interest rate collar agreement.

     We are also subject to market risks from fluctuations in foreign currency
rates and the anticipated conversion by several European Union members from
local currencies to the use of the euro. Portions of our operations are located
in foreign jurisdictions and a portion of our billings are paid in foreign
currencies. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic
conditions in foreign markets could therefore cause fluctuations in those
revenues derived from foreign operations. In addition, sales of products and
services are affected by the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other
currencies. Furthermore, the long-term affect of the conversion to the use of
the euro on our accounting, treasury and computer systems, as well as its effect
on trade competition and our foreign operating subsidiaries, is uncertain.

             CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     This prospectus includes "forward-looking statements." These
forward-looking statements include, in particular, the statements about our
plans, strategies, and prospects under the headings "Prospectus Summary,"
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations," and "Business." Although we believe that our plans, intentions and
expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are
reasonable, we may not achieve our plans, intentions or expectations.

     Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
the forward-looking statements we make in this prospectus are set forth in "Risk
Factors" and elsewhere in this prospectus. All forward-looking statements
attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in
their entirety by the cautionary statements in "Risk Factors," in which we have
disclosed the material risks related to our business and this offering. These
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and the cautionary
statements identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those predicted in any forward-looking statements.

                                USE OF PROCEEDS

     We expect that the net proceeds from the sale of our common stock in this
offering will be approximately $113.3 million after deducting underwriting
discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. These
amounts assume the sale of all of our common stock offered by this prospectus at
an initial offering price of $17.00 per share (the midpoint of the range set
forth on the cover of this prospectus).

     We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering as follows:

     - approximately $81.5 million to repay a portion of our senior term loans;

     - approximately $25.5 million to repay a portion of our senior subordinated
       loan and to pay related prepayment premiums; and

     - approximately $6.3 million to make a distribution on the preferred units
       of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. in an aggregate amount equal to the accrued and
       unpaid dividends on those units.

     Of the $6.3 million distribution, $2.9 million will be paid to our
affiliates. Affiliates of Harvest Partners, Inc. will receive $2.4 million and
members of our management and our directors will receive in the aggregate $0.5
million.

     As of March 31, 2001, our outstanding senior term loans bore interest at
rates ranging from 8.34% to 9.09% per annum and consisted of (1) a $27.7 million
term A loan maturing in July 2006; (2) a $103.8 million term B loan maturing in
July 2008; and (3) a $13.9 million term C loan maturing in July 2006. Our senior
subordinated loan has an outstanding principal amount of $67.5 million, matures
in August 2010 and bears interest at the rate of 13.5% per annum. The amounts
borrowed under the term A loan, the term B loan and the senior subordinated loan
financed a portion of the August 2000 recapitalization. We used the term C loan
to partially fund the acquisition of CFI Holdings, Inc. in October 2000.

     We intend to refinance any remaining balances on our senior term loans
after the application of the net proceeds of this offering using the proceeds of
a new loan under an amended and restated senior credit facility and available
cash.

     We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of our common stock, if any,
by the selling stockholders upon the exercise of the underwriters'
over-allotment option.

                                DIVIDEND POLICY

     We intend to retain future earnings for use in our business and do not
anticipate declaring or paying any dividends on shares of our common stock in
the foreseeable future. In addition, any determination to declare and pay
dividends will be made by our board of directors in light of our earnings,
financial position, capital requirements, contractual restrictions of any future
financing instruments and any other factors as the board of directors deems
relevant. Our senior subordinated loan restricts and we anticipate that our
amended and restated senior credit facility will restrict our ability to pay
dividends. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources" for a discussion of
restrictions on our ability to pay dividends.

                                    DILUTION

     Purchasers of the common stock offered by this prospectus will suffer an
immediate and substantial dilution in net tangible book value per share.
Dilution is the amount by which the initial public offering price paid by the
purchasers of the shares of common stock in this offering will exceed the pro
forma net tangible book value per share of common stock after this offering. The
pro forma net tangible book value per share of common stock is determined by
subtracting pro forma total liabilities from the pro forma tangible assets and
dividing the difference by the pro forma number of shares of common stock deemed
to be outstanding on the date the book value is determined. The number of shares
used in this calculation and otherwise in this section give effect to the
reorganization transaction as described under "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- The Reorganization
Transaction" and assume the exercise of all options held by officers. As of
March 31, 2001, our pro forma net tangible book value would have been a deficit
of $101.4 million, or $(2.62) per share, based upon an assumed initial public
offering price of $17.00 per share (the mid-point of the range set forth on the
cover of this prospectus). Assuming the sale of 7,350,000 shares at an assumed
initial public offering price of $17.00 per share and deducting underwriters'
discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, our pro forma
tangible book value as of March 31, 2001 would have been $11.9 million, or $0.26
per share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book
value to existing stockholders prior to the closing of this offering of $2.88
per share and an immediate dilution to new investors of $16.74 per share. The
following table illustrates this per share dilution:

     The discussion and tables above include the assumed exercise of options to
purchase 1,232,865 shares of common stock held by officers at March 31, 2001 and
exclude options outstanding at March 31, 2001, not held by officers, to purchase
a total of 1,688,494 shares of common stock with a weighted average exercise
price of $0.36 per share. To the extent these options are exercised, new
investors will experience further dilution.

                                 CAPITALIZATION

     The following table sets forth our cash and cash equivalents and
capitalization as of March 31, 2001 on:

     - an actual basis;

     - a pro forma basis giving effect to our planned reorganization; and

     - a pro forma as adjusted basis to reflect (1) this offering and our use of
       the net proceeds at an assumed initial public offering price of $17.00
       per share (the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover of this
       prospectus), and (2) the refinancing of our senior term loans, including
       the application of available cash.

The table should be read together with "Use of Proceeds," the audited historical
consolidated financial statements and the related notes which are included
elsewhere in this prospectus, "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations."

        UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated interim financial
statements are based on the historical financial statements of GEEG Holdings,
L.L.C. included elsewhere in this prospectus, adjusted to give effect to the
following transactions, which we refer to as the "Transactions":

     - the reorganization in connection with this offering;

     - the refinancing of our senior term loans under our amended and restated
       senior credit facility; and

     - consummation of this offering and the use of the net proceeds as
       described under "Use of Proceeds."

     In addition, the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of income
(loss) for fiscal year 2000 is based on the historical financial statements of
GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. included elsewhere in this prospectus, adjusted to give
effect to the Transactions, the August 2000 recapitalization and the acquisition
of CFI Holdings, Inc. in October 2000.

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of income (loss) for the
three months ended March 31, 2001 and for fiscal year 2000 give effect to the
pro forma adjustments discussed above as if they had occurred as of December 31,
2000 and December 26, 1999, respectively, and the unaudited pro forma condensed
consolidated balance sheet gives effect to the Transactions as if they had
occurred as of March 31, 2001. The Transactions, the August 2000
recapitalization and the CFI acquisition are described under "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations --
Overview," "-- The Reorganization Transaction" and "-- Liquidity and Capital
Resources" and the related adjustments are described in the notes below. The pro
forma adjustments are based upon available information and assumptions that we
believe are reasonable. The pro forma condensed consolidated financial
statements do not purport to represent what our results of operations or
financial condition would actually have been had the Transactions, the August
2000 recapitalization and the CFI acquisition in fact occurred on the dates
provided above or to project our results of operations or financial condition
for any subsequent period or at any subsequent date. The pro forma condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited
historical consolidated financial statements and related notes included
elsewhere in this prospectus.

     The acquisition of CFI Holdings, Inc. has been accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting. The total purchase price of the acquisition has
been allocated to our tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based upon
their respective fair values. The allocation of the aggregate purchase price
included in the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements is
preliminary as we believe further refinement is impractical to perform at this
time. However, we do not expect the final allocation of the purchase price to
materially differ from the preliminary allocation set forth below.

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of income (loss) does not
include an extraordinary loss of approximately $7.5 million ($12.3 million less
the associated income tax benefit of $4.8 million) resulting from the write-off
of deferred financing costs and debt discount, as well as prepayment premiums
relating to the repayment of long-term debt. This amount will be charged to
earnings in the quarter in which the long-term debt is repaid. We anticipate
repaying the debt in the second quarter of fiscal year 2001.

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of income (loss) also does
not give effect to an $88.0 million increase in net income (loss) before
extraordinary item that will result from our change from a limited liability
company, a non-taxable entity, to a C-corporation, a taxable entity. The
unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of income (loss) also does not give
effect to an approximate $0.4 million ($0.7 million less the associated income
tax benefit of $0.3 million) decrease in net income (loss) before extraordinary
item that will result from the immediate vesting of certain options which were
granted at exercise prices which were deemed less than fair value at the date of
grant. The accelerated vesting will have no net impact on total stockholders'
equity included within the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance
sheet.

       NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET

(1) Gives effect to the recording of deferred taxes in connection with the
    reorganization and resulting change from a non-taxable to a taxable entity.
    Prior to the reorganization, we will continue to be a non-taxable limited
    liability company. As a limited liability company, all federal income tax
    liabilities are the responsibility of individual investors. When the
    reorganization occurs and the limited liability company structure is
    converted to a C-corporation, all deferred tax assets and liabilities become
    our responsibility. At March 31, 2001, approximately $88.0 million of net
    deferred tax assets are the responsibility of the individual investors. The
    reorganization would result in an $88.0 million increase in our total assets
    along with a corresponding increase in net income and stockholders' equity.

(2) Reflects the exchange of members' equity for stockholders' equity in
    connection with the reorganization.

(3) Sources and uses of cash from this offering and the refinancing are as
    follows:


                                                             
  Net proceeds from this offering.............................  $ 113,303,500
  Borrowings under our amended and restated senior credit
    facility..................................................     32,268,000
  Repayment of debt and related expenditures..................   (145,853,500)
  Preferred unit dividends (at March 31, 2001)................     (5,426,000)
                                                                -------------
       Net adjustment to cash.................................  $  (5,708,000)
                                                                =============


(4) Reflects the write-off of $5.1 million of deferred financing costs
    associated with the repayment of debt and the capitalization of new deferred
    financing costs of $1.2 million related to the refinancing under our amended
    and restated credit facility.

(5) Reflects the repayment of senior term and senior subordinated loans with the
    proceeds of this offering and borrowings under the amended and restated
    senior credit facility.

(6) Reflects the extraordinary loss of approximately $7.5 million ($12.3 million
    less the associated income tax benefit of $4.8 million) resulting from the
    write-off of deferred financing costs and debt discount, as well as
    prepayment premiums relating to the repayment of long-term debt.

(7) To give effect to the receipt of the proceeds from this offering of $125.0
    million, net of estimated fees and expense of $11.6 million, assuming the
    sale of all of our common stock offered by this prospectus at an initial
    public offering price of $17.00 per share (the midpoint of the range set
    forth on the cover of this prospectus). Also gives effect to a $5.4 million
    distribution on the preferred units of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. in an aggregate
    amount equal to the accrued and unpaid dividends on those units through
    March 31, 2001.

(1) In fiscal year 2000, we incurred a non-recurring recapitalization charge
    associated with the cancellation of options outstanding as of the closing
    date of the August 2000 recapitalization.

(2) Income (loss) before extraordinary item per common unit is calculated by
    dividing income before extraordinary item after adjusting for preferred
    dividends by the weighted-average number of common units outstanding during
    each period. Preferred dividends were $0.4 million, $0.4 million and $3.4
    million in the period from June 5, 1998 through December 26, 1998, fiscal
    year 1999 and fiscal year 2000, respectively, and $0 and $2.0 million for
    the three months ended March 25, 2000 and March 31, 2001, respectively.


(3) EBITDA, as adjusted, represents income (loss) before extraordinary item,
    interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and recapitalization charge.
    EBITDA, as adjusted, is presented because we believe that it is frequently
    used by security analysts in the evaluation of companies. EBITDA, as
    adjusted, should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from
    operating activities, as a measure of liquidity, as an alternative to net
    income, as an indicator or operating performance, or as an alternative to
    any other measure of performance in accordance with generally accepted
    accounting principles. Our EBITDA, before adjusting for the recapitalization
    charge, was $8.0 million for fiscal year 2000.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

     We design, engineer and fabricate a comprehensive portfolio of heat
recovery and auxiliary power equipment and provide related services.

     On May 13, 1998, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. was formed as a Delaware limited
liability company by the management of Jason Incorporated's power generation
products division for the purpose of acquiring the division. In addition to the
equity units issued to its management members, including Larry Edwards, Michael
Hackner, Gene Schockemoehl, Gary Obermiller and James Wilson, all of whom are
currently our executive officers, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. issued equity units to
Saw Mill Investments L.L.C. and SMC Power Holdings L.L.C., each an affiliate of
Saw Mill Capital, L.L.C., and several other financial investors. On June 5,
1998, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. acquired Jason Incorporated's power generation
division, consisting of Braden Manufacturing L.L.C., Deltak L.L.C. and other
subsidiaries.

     In July 2000, the owners of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. sought purchasers for the
company, as a result of which, in August 2000, GEEG Acquisition Holdings Corp.
and GEEG Acquisition Holdings, L.L.C., investment entities controlled by Harvest
Partners, Inc., acquired control of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. in a recapitalization
transaction. Pursuant to the operating agreement of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C., the
representatives of Harvest Partners, Inc. controlled a majority of the votes on
the board of directors.

     In addition, under the terms of the recapitalization that were negotiated
between GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. and Harvest Partners, Inc.:

     - GEEG Acquisition Holdings, L.L.C. and GEEG Acquisition Holdings Corp.
       contributed $82.0 million in cash and received equity interests in GEEG
       Holdings, L.L.C. representing an 81.5% voting interest, including equity
       interests issued in connection with the senior subordinated loan;

     - existing investors, including Saw Mill Investments L.L.C., SMC Power
       Holdings L.L.C., Larry Edwards, Michael Hackner, Gene Schockemoehl, Gary
       Obermiller and James Wilson, received approximately $233 million in cash
       and escrow funds;

     - members of management, including Larry Edwards, Michael Hackner, Gene
       Schockemoehl, Gary Obermiller and James Wilson, and several financial
       investors, including Saw Mill Investments L.L.C. and SMC Power Holdings
       L.L.C., retained an aggregate 18.5% equity investment in GEEG Holdings,
       L.L.C.; and

     - officers, directors and employees of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C., including
       Larry Edwards, Michael Hackner, Gene Schockemoehl, Gary Obermiller and
       James Wilson, received approximately $38.1 million in cash in
       consideration for the cancellation of options.

GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. partially financed the recapitalization with $140.0
million of borrowings under a senior credit facility and a $67.5 million senior
subordinated loan.

     In October 2000, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. acquired CFI Holdings, Inc. and its
subsidiary, Consolidated Fabricators Inc., for $25.2 million. The purchase price
consisted of (1) $15.2 million in cash and escrow funds, (2) $5.5 million in
promissory notes, (3) $2.5 million in earn-out payments and (4) $2.0 million in
equity interests in GEEG Holdings, L.L.C.

THE REORGANIZATION TRANSACTION

     Prior to the completion of this offering, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. will
complete a reorganization, referred to in this prospectus as the reorganization
transaction. The beneficial ownership of our common stock immediately after
completion of the reorganization transaction, but prior to the closing of this
offering, will be identical to the beneficial ownership of the common and
preferred units of GEEG

                                        26
   31

Holdings, L.L.C. immediately before the reorganization transaction. As part of
the reorganization transaction, the following will occur:

     - GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. will declare a distribution on its preferred units
       in an aggregate amount equal to the accrued and unpaid dividend on those
       units to be paid from the proceeds of this offering;

     - GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. will declare a distribution to its members on
       account of their remaining fiscal year 2001 tax liability to be paid out
       of available cash after completion of this offering once the amount of
       the tax liability is determined; and

     - the holders of common and preferred units of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. will
       exchange their units for shares of our common stock.

     The common units of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. will be converted into 31,558,514
shares of our common stock. Each preferred unit of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. will be
converted into the number of shares of our common stock equal to the liquidation
preference of the preferred unit divided by the initial public offering price of
a share of our common stock. Assuming an initial public offering price of $17.00
per share (the mid-point of the range set forth on the cover of this prospectus)
all of the preferred units would be convertible into 5,934,750 shares of our
common stock. Upon completion of the reorganization transaction, (1) GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C. will become our wholly-owned subsidiary and then will merge
into us and (2) GEEG Acquisition Holdings Corp. and GEEG Acquisition Holdings
L.L.C. intend to liquidate and distribute our common stock held by them to their
equity holders as a result of which, after this offering, and assuming no
exercise of the underwriters' overallotment option, the affiliates of Harvest
Partners, Inc. will control 30.6% of our common stock.

     In connection with the reorganization and this offering, we intend to
refinance a portion of our outstanding indebtedness. We will use a portion of
the net proceeds from this offering to repay a portion of our outstanding senior
subordinated loan and a portion of our outstanding senior term loans. We intend
to refinance any remaining balances on our senior term loans using the proceeds
of a new loan under an amended and restated senior credit facility and
approximately $4.0 million of available cash. For additional information, see
"Use of Proceeds" and "-- Liquidity and Capital Resources" below. We expect that
this refinancing of our outstanding indebtedness will result in an approximate
$7.0 million after-tax extraordinary loss from the write-off of deferred
financing costs and debt discount, as well as prepayment premiums relating to
the prepayment of long-term debt. This amount will be charged to earnings in the
quarter in which the long-term debt is repaid.

     In connection with the reorganization and this offering, in the fiscal
quarter in which this offering is completed, we will incur an approximate $0.4
million after-tax expense from the immediate vesting of certain options which
were granted at exercise prices which were deemed less than fair value at the
date of grant.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     As a result of the transactions described above, our historical financial
statements prior to June 5, 1998 are those of Jason Incorporated's power
generation division, the predecessor of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C., and from June 5,
1998 are those of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C.

     The table below represents the historical operating results of GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C. and its predecessor for the three-year period ended December
30, 2000, as well as the fiscal quarters ended March 25, 2000 and March 31,
2001. The combined fiscal year 1998 results noted below represent the
combination of the results of operations from (1) the power generation division
of Jason Incorporated from December 26, 1997 through June 4, 1998 and (2) GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C. from June 5, 1998 through December 26, 1998. The combined
fiscal year 1998 results set forth below may not be indicative of the results
that would have been realized had GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. owned Jason
Incorporated's power generation division from December 26, 1997. The combined
fiscal year 1998 results are not comparable to subsequent periods because the
basis of accounting for the period after June 5, 1998 is different from the
basis of accounting prior to June 5, 1998, as a result of purchase accounting
adjustments made upon the acquisition of the power generation division.
Nevertheless, although purchase accounting adjustments
                                        27
   32

resulted in a different basis of accounting at GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. prior to
June 5, 1998, these adjustments did not materially affect revenues or gross
profit. We believe that a discussion of the results of operations of fiscal year
1999 compared to fiscal year 1998 using the combined fiscal year 1998 is more
meaningful to potential investors than a discussion using uncombined results for
fiscal year 1998. As a result, the discussion below with respect to fiscal year
1998 is based upon the combined results for fiscal year 1998.

FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL YEAR 2001 COMPARED TO FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL YEAR 2000

     Revenues

     Revenues increased 40.6% to $156.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal
year 2001 from $111.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2000. This
increase was primarily the result of larger multiple unit orders for HRSGs and a
significant increase in the volume of auxiliary power equipment products sold.
These increases in order size and volume were caused by the higher demand
experienced overall in the gas turbine power generation equipment industry.
Development of new gas turbine power plants continued to increase substantially
in 2001, including a greater number of larger projects.

     The heat recovery equipment segment revenues increased 37.7% to $92.9
million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 compared to the first quarter
of fiscal year 2000. Revenues for HRSGs increased 16.3% to $63.5 million.
Although the volume of orders did not increase significantly, orders were much
larger, on average, than in the previous year. This enabled us to recognize
higher revenues compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 2000. Revenues for
specialty boilers increased 128.9% to $29.4 million. This increase was due
primarily to several larger, multiple unit orders, on which we were able to
generate substantially increased revenues, as well as accelerated delivery
requirements of our customers.

     The auxiliary power equipment segment revenues increased 45.0% to $63.3
million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 compared to the first quarter
of fiscal year 2000. Revenues for exhaust systems increased 21.4% to $32.4
million. This increase was due primarily to the increased volume of orders,
resulting from the increased demand and our ability to handle increased orders
through our use of subcontractors to manufacture products. Additional production
capacity in Mexico contributed to our increased production and related revenues.
Revenues for inlet systems increased by 0.7% to $15.6 million. Revenues for
other equipment increased by 941.0% to $15.3 million. A total of $11.3 million
of the increase was attributable to the inclusion in the first quarter of fiscal
year 2001 of revenues from Consolidated Fabricators, Inc., which we acquired in
October 2000. Our focus on the retrofit market, which has provided us with
access to a broader customer base, also contributed to this increase.

     The following table presents our revenues by geographic region (in
millions):

     Revenues in the United States comprised 92.2% of our total revenues for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2001 and 88.7% for the first quarter of fiscal year
2000. Revenues in the United States increased 46.0% to $144.0 million for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2001 compared to the first quarter of fiscal year
2000, primarily as a result of significant increases in the volume of products
sold. This volume increase was primarily caused by the increase in demand
experienced overall in the U.S. gas turbine power

                                        29
   34

generation equipment industry. This increase in industry demand reflected the
continued increase in demand for electricity and the lack of sufficient power
generation facilities in the United States. Revenues in Asia decreased by 55.7%
to $2.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 compared to the first
quarter of fiscal year 2000, as a result of that region's economic instability
and decline in power plant construction. Other revenues increased 76.7% to $5.3
million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 compared to the first quarter
of fiscal year 2000, with slight increases in the volume of products sold,
without any particular country contributing a significant amount.

     Gross Profit

     Gross profit increased 43.0% to $26.4 million for the first quarter of
fiscal year 2001 from $18.5 million for first quarter of fiscal year 2000 as a
result of the increase in our revenues. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues
increased to 16.9% in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 from 16.6% in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2000. This increase is due primarily to the higher
volume of specialty boiler revenues relative to our other product offerings.
Specialty boilers typically generate a higher percentage of gross profit.

     Selling and Administrative Expenses

     Selling and administrative expenses increased 43.8% to $8.5 million for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2001 from $5.9 million for the first quarter of
fiscal year 2000. Of this increase, $1.0 million resulted from the hiring of
additional sales and administrative personnel in connection with the continued
growth of our business. The inclusion of selling and administrative expenses of
Consolidated Fabricators, Inc. accounted for $0.9 million of the increase. As a
percentage of revenues, selling and administrative expenses increased to 5.5%
for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 from 5.3% for the comparable period of
fiscal year 2000.

     Operating Income

     Operating income increased to $17.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal
year 2001 from $12.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000. The
increase in revenues, and associated gross profit contributed to this increase
in operating income.

     Interest Expense, Net

     Net interest expense increased to $6.4 million for the first quarter of
fiscal year 2001 from $0.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal year 2000.
This increase is due primarily to the additional borrowings incurred in
connection with the August 2000 recapitalization.

     Income Taxes

     GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. and most of its operating subsidiaries are limited
liability companies and have been treated as partnerships for income tax
purposes. As a result, no income tax provision was made with respect to these
entities for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 or the first quarter of
fiscal year 2000. However, because some of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C.'s subsidiaries
are corporations, our historical consolidated financial statements reflect a
small income tax provision.

     As a result of the reorganization transaction, we will be subject to
corporate federal and state income taxes. At the time of the reorganization
transaction, we will record a deferred tax benefit and related deferred tax
asset of approximately $88.0 million which primarily represents the excess tax
basis over book basis related to the August 2000 recapitalization. For
informational purposes, our consolidated statements of income for the first
quarter of fiscal year 2001 and the first quarter of fiscal year 2000 include
pro forma income on an after-tax basis assuming we had been taxed as a
corporation since December 26, 1999. We did not have any net operating loss
carryforwards at March 31, 2001.

FISCAL YEAR 2000 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR 1999

     Revenues

     Revenues increased 51.4% to $416.6 million for fiscal year 2000 from $275.2
million for fiscal year 1999. This increase is primarily the result of larger
multiple unit orders for HRSGs and a significant increase in the volume of
auxiliary power equipment products sold. These increases in order size and
volume were caused by the higher demand experienced overall in the gas turbine
power generation equipment industry. Development of gas turbine power plants
continued to increase substantially in 2000 as the number and size of projects
grew.

     The following table sets forth our segment revenues for fiscal year 1999
and fiscal year 2000 (dollars in thousands):

     The heat recovery equipment segment revenues increased 39.4% to $258.6
million for fiscal year 2000. Revenues for HRSGs increased 63.9% to $219.7
million. Although the volume of orders did not increase significantly, the size
of the orders increased to allow us to recognize significantly higher revenues
over the year. Revenues for specialty boilers decreased by 24.3%, to $39.0
million. This decrease is due primarily to the fact that fiscal year 1999
results included $21.8 million in revenues from one order delivered during that
year.


     The auxiliary power equipment segment revenues increased 76.2% to $157.9
million for fiscal year 2000. Revenues for exhaust systems increased by 57.6% to
$86.2 million. This increase is due primarily to the increased volume of orders,
combined with our ability to handle increased orders through our use of
subcontractors to manufacture products. Revenues for inlet systems increased by
130.6%, to $52.0 million. This increase is due primarily to the increased volume
of orders, with a broader scope of equipment included in each order. Revenues
for other equipment increased by 59.6% to $19.7 million. This increase is due
primarily to our focus on the retrofit market, which has provided us with access
to a broader customer base.

Revenues in the United States comprised 91.3% of our revenues for fiscal year
2000 and 75.6% for fiscal year 1999. Revenues in the United States increased
82.8% to $380.4 million for fiscal year 2000, primarily as a result of
significant increases in the volume of products sold. This volume increase was
caused

                                        31
   36

primarily by the increase in demand experienced overall in the U.S. gas turbine
power generation equipment industry. This increase in industry demand reflected
the rapid increase in demand for electricity and the lack of sufficient power
generation facilities in the United States. Revenues in Asia decreased by 68.1%
to $11.8 million for fiscal year 2000 as a result of that region's economic
instability and decline in power plant construction.

     Gross Profit

     Gross profit increased 44.3% to $70.9 million for fiscal year 2000 from
$49.1 million for fiscal year 1999 as a result of the increase in our revenues.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenues decreased slightly to 17.0% in fiscal
year 2000 from 17.9% in fiscal year 1999.

     Selling and Administrative Expenses

     Selling and administrative expenses increased 16.7% to $27.0 million for
fiscal year 2000 from $23.2 million for fiscal year 1999. Of this increase, $1.5
million resulted from the hiring of additional sales and administrative
personnel in connection with the growth of our business. A total of $1.0 million
of the increase resulted from outside sales representative commissions
associated with the increased revenue volume. Although our bad debt experience
historically has been low, the provision for bad debts increased by a total of
$0.8 million, due to uncertainty as to collectability of amounts due on several
projects. Changes in our provision for bad debts primarily are impacted by the
circumstances relating to specific projects, and not by the overall growth of
our business. As a result, whether any increase in the provision will be
required in future periods largely will depend on the status of particular
projects at the time. As a percentage of revenues, selling and administrative
expenses decreased to 6.5% for fiscal year 2000 from 8.4% for the comparable
prior period as a result of our revenues growing at a higher rate than the
expenses. With the significant growth in revenues being driven by larger project
size and not numbers of orders, we were able to reduce our selling and
administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues.

     Operating Income

     Operating income decreased to $4.5 million for fiscal year 2000 from $24.9
million in fiscal year 1999. This decrease was the result of the $38.1 million
non-recurring recapitalization charge relating to cash payments made to
officers, directors and employees for option cancellations in connection with
the August 2000 recapitalization discussed above. Excluding this charge,
operating income would have been $42.6 million, or an increase of 71.2%,
compared to fiscal year 1999. The increase in revenues, and associated gross
profit, together with the decrease in selling and administrative expenses as a
percent of revenues, contributed to this increase in operating income.

     Interest Expense, Net

     Net interest expense increased to $12.2 million for fiscal year 2000 from
$3.4 million for fiscal year 1999. This increase is due primarily to the
additional borrowings incurred in connection with the August 2000
recapitalization.

     Income Taxes

     GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. and most of its operating subsidiaries are limited
liability companies and have been treated as partnerships for income tax
purposes. As a result, no income tax provision was made with respect to these
entities for fiscal year 2000 or fiscal year 1999. However, because some of GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C.'s subsidiaries are corporations, our historical consolidated
financial statements reflect a small income tax provision.


     As a result of the reorganization transaction, we will be subject to
corporate federal and state income taxes. At the time of the reorganization
transaction, we will record a deferred tax benefit and related deferred tax
asset which will primarily represent the excess tax basis over book basis
related to the August 2000 recapitalization. For informational purposes, our
consolidated statements of income (loss) for fiscal

year 2000 include pro forma income on an after-tax basis assuming we had been
taxed as a corporation since December 29, 1999. We did not have any net
operating loss carryforwards at December 30, 2000.

FISCAL YEAR 1999 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR 1998

     Revenues

     Revenues increased 72.8% to $275.2 million for fiscal year 1999 from $159.2
million for fiscal year 1998. This increase is primarily the result of larger
multiple unit orders for heat recovery equipment products and a significant
increase in the volume of auxiliary power equipment products sold. Development
of gas turbine power plants continued to increase significantly in fiscal year
1999 as a result of developments in the deregulation of the power industry and a
renewed interest in the U.S. market, which began after 1997 when a number of
power plant projects in Asia were put on hold. The number of U.S. projects
increased and were larger.

     The following table sets forth our segment revenues for fiscal year 1998
and fiscal year 1999 (dollars in thousands):

     The heat recovery equipment segment revenues increased 81.0% to $185.6
million for fiscal year 1999. Revenues for HRSGs increased 85.5% to $134.0
million. Although the volume of orders did not increase significantly, the size
of the orders increased to allow us to recognize significantly higher revenues
over the year. Revenues for specialty boilers increased by 70.1% to $51.5
million. This increase is due primarily to the fact that fiscal year 1999
results included $28.0 million in revenues from one order delivered during that
year.

     The auxiliary power equipment segment revenues increased 58.1% to $89.6
million for fiscal year 1999. Revenues for exhaust systems increased by 94.3% to
$54.7 million. This increase is due primarily to the increased volume of orders,
combined with our ability to handle increased orders through our use of
subcontractors to manufacture products. Revenues for inlet systems increased by
39.7%, to $22.6 million. This increase is due primarily to the increased volume
of orders, while pricing did not increase significantly. Revenues for other
equipment declined slightly.

     The following table presents our revenues by geographic region (in
millions):

Revenues within the United States comprised 75.6% of our revenues for fiscal
year 1999 and 54.1% of our revenues for fiscal year 1998. Revenues in the United
States increased 141.4% to $208.1 million for fiscal year 1999 due to
significant increases in the volume of products sold. This volume increase was
caused primarily by the increase in demand experienced in the U.S. gas turbine
power generation equipment industry referred to above. Revenues in Asia
increased 19.4% to $37.0 million in fiscal year 1999 as a result of the delivery
of a large order in that region.


     Gross Profit

     Gross profit increased 61.5% to $49.1 million for fiscal year 1999 from
$30.4 million for fiscal year 1998 as a result of our increase in revenues.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenues decreased slightly to 17.9% in fiscal
year 1999 from 19.1% in fiscal year 1998 because of a change in our product mix.

     Selling and Administrative Expenses

     Selling and administrative expenses increased 18.1% to $23.2 million for
fiscal year 1999 from $19.6 million for fiscal year 1998. Of this increase, $2.5
million resulted from the hiring of sales and administrative support staff and
other compensation costs incurred in response to the growth of our business. As
a percentage of revenues, selling and administrative expenses decreased to 8.4%
for fiscal year 1999 from 12.3% for the comparable prior period as a result of
our revenues growing at a higher rate than these expenses. Because the growth in
revenues was driven by larger project size as well as an increase in the number
of orders, we were able to reduce our selling and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenues.

     Operating Income

     Operating income increased 167.4% to $24.9 million for fiscal year 1999
from $9.3 million in fiscal year 1998 for reasons discussed above. The increase
in revenues, and associated gross profit, combined with the decrease in selling
and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues, contributed to this
increase in operating income.

     Interest Expense, Net

     Net interest expense was $3.4 million for fiscal year 1999 and $3.4 million
for fiscal year 1998.

     Income Taxes

     Income taxes decreased 7.3% to $1.1 million for fiscal year 1999 from $1.2
million in fiscal year 1998, because of the different tax treatments of GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C. and the Jason Incorporated power generation division. GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C. and most of its operating subsidiaries are limited liability
companies and have been treated as partnerships for income tax purposes. As a
result, no income tax provision was made in respect to these entities for fiscal
year 1999. However, because some of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C.'s subsidiaries are
corporations, our historical consolidated financial statements reflect a small
income tax provision. Jason Incorporated was taxed as a C-corporation and
therefore the income tax provision for fiscal year 1998 reflects different tax
treatments for the predecessor company period and the post-acquisition period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Our primary sources of cash are net cash flow from operations and
borrowings under our senior credit facility. Our primary uses of this cash are
principal and interest payments on indebtedness and capital expenditures.

     To finance the August 2000 recapitalization, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. obtained
$207.5 million as follows: (1) $30.0 million under our senior credit facility in
the form of a term A loan maturing in

                                        34
   39

July 2006 which bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.25% per annum, (2) $110.0 million
under our senior credit facility in the form of a term B loan maturing in July
2008 which bears interest at LIBOR plus 4.00% per annum and (3) $67.5 million in
the form of a senior subordinated loan maturing in August 2010 which bears
interest at a rate of 13.5% per annum. In October 2000, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C.
borrowed an additional $15.0 million under our senior credit facility in the
form of a term C loan which matures July 2006 and bears interest at LIBOR plus
3.25% per annum. The loan was used to fund a portion of the acquisition of CFI
Holdings, Inc. The senior credit facility includes a revolving loan facility of
$55.0 million. Amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility are
available from time to time for general corporate and working capital purposes.

     Our senior credit facility is secured by a lien on all our and our domestic
subsidiaries' property and assets, including, without limitation, a pledge of
all of the capital stock owned by us and our domestic subsidiaries, subject to a
limitation of 65% of the voting stock of any foreign subsidiary. At December 30,
2000, a total of $154.2 million was outstanding under the senior credit
facility.

     Our senior subordinated loan agreement, among other things, restricts our
ability to incur additional indebtedness, sell assets other than in the ordinary
course of business, pay dividends, make investments and acquisitions and enter
into mergers, consolidations or similar transactions.

     We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds of this offering to repay
$81.4 million of the outstanding loans under our existing senior credit
facility, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and to repay $22.5 million of our
senior subordinated loan, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and to pay related
prepayment premiums, fees and expenses. See "Use of Proceeds." We intend to
refinance any balances on our senior credit facility remaining after the
application of the net proceeds of this offering using the proceeds of new loans
under an amended and restated senior credit facility described below and
approximately $4.0 million in available cash.

     We have received a commitment from Bankers Trust Company (an affiliate of
Deutsche Banc Alex. Brown Inc., one of the underwriters of this offering) to
amend and restate our existing senior credit facility at or prior to the closing
of this offering. Our amended and restated senior credit facility will consist
of a term loan facility of up to $60.0 million and a revolving loan facility of
up to $75.0 million. We anticipate that, at closing, we will borrow the full
amount available under the term loan and not more than $20.0 million will be
outstanding under the revolving loan facility. Amounts borrowed under the term
loan facility will amortize over four years and will mature on the fourth
anniversary of the closing of the amended and restated credit facility. The
revolving credit facility will mature on the fourth anniversary of the closing
of the amended and restated credit facility.

     At our option, amounts borrowed under the amended and restated senior
credit facility will bear interest at either the eurodollar rate or an alternate
base rate, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margin will
range from 1.0% to 2.25% in the case of a eurodollar based loan and from 0% to
1.25% in the case of a base rate loan, in each case, based on a leverage ratio.

     We anticipate that our amended and restated senior credit facility will:

     - be guaranteed by all of our domestic subsidiaries;


     - be secured by a lien on all our and our domestic subsidiaries' property
       and assets, including, without limitation, a pledge of all capital stock
       owned by us and our domestic subsidiaries, subject to a limitation of 65%
       of the voting stock of any foreign subsidiary;


     - require us to maintain minimum interest and fixed charge coverage ratios
       and limit our maximum leverage; and

     - among other things, restrict our ability to (1) incur additional
       indebtedness, (2) sell assets other than in the ordinary course of
       business, (3) pay dividends in excess of 25% of our cumulative net income
       from January 1, 2001 through the most recent fiscal quarter end, subject
       to leverage and liquidity thresholds and other customary restrictions,
       (4) make capital expenditures in excess of $10

                                        35
   40

       million in any fiscal year with adjustments for carry-overs from the
       previous year, (5) make investments and acquisitions and (6) enter into
       mergers, consolidations or similar transactions.

     Under the anticipated provisions of our amended and restated senior credit
facility, but using as the relevant measuring period the four fiscal quarter
periods ended March 31, 2001, we would have been able to incur as of March 31,
2001 approximately $35 million of additional indebtedness for borrowed money.
Under the anticipated provisions of the amended and restated senior credit
facility, we would be able to pay dividends on our common stock upon compliance
with the relevant covenants. However, as of March 31, 2001, we were not
permitted to pay any dividends under the terms of our senior subordinated loan
agreement.

     In April 2001, we declared a distribution equal to $5.0 million to our
members on account of their first quarter fiscal year 2001 tax liability. In
addition, in connection with the reorganization transaction, we will declare (1)
a distribution on account of our members' remaining fiscal year 2001 tax
liability and (2) a distribution on our preferred units in an aggregate amount
equal to the accrued and unpaid dividends on those units. We will pay these
distributions after the closing of this offering. We will use a portion of the
net proceeds from this offering to pay the preferred distribution.

     Net cash used for operations was $1.3 million for the first quarter of
fiscal year 2001 compared to net cash provided by operations of $19.7 million
for the first quarter of fiscal year 2000. The decrease in net operating cash
flow primarily resulted from an increase in working capital caused by
fluctuations in the timing of advance billings to customers. Net cash provided
by operations decreased 37.2% to $24.8 million for fiscal year 2000 from $39.5
million for fiscal year 1999. The decrease in net operating cash flow resulted
from the non-recurring $38.1 recapitalization charge relating to option
cancellation payments made in connection with the August 2000 recapitalization.
This decrease was partially offset by a reduction in working capital.

     Net cash used by investing activities increased to $7.2 million for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2001 from $1.0 million for the first quarter of
fiscal year 2000. This cash was primarily used for the acquisition in January
2001 of a manufacturing facility in Mexico. Net cash provided by investing
activities was $1.4 million in fiscal year 1999 and net cash used for investing
activities was $19.8 million in fiscal year 2000. Net cash used for investing
activities in fiscal year 2000 was primarily the result of the acquisition of
CFI Holdings, Inc.

     Net cash used for financing activities increased to $9.9 million for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2001 from $0.3 million for the first quarter of
fiscal year 2000. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2001, cash was used in
financing activities to prepay approximately $8.8 million of long-term debt and
to make tax distributions to members of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. Net cash used for
financing activities was $39.5 million in fiscal year 1999 and net cash provided
by financing activities was $10.2 million in fiscal year 2000. In fiscal year
1999, cash was used to prepay long-term debt, to make tax distributions to
members of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. and to redeem preferred units. In fiscal year
2000, net cash provided by financing activities was primarily in connection with
the August 2000 recapitalization.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     We are exposed to market risks. Market risk is the potential loss arising
from adverse changes in market prices and interest and foreign currency rates.
We do not enter into derivative or other financial instruments for speculative
purposes. Our market risk could arise from changes in interest rates and foreign
currency exchange.

                                        36
   41

     Interest Rate Risk.  We are subject to market risk exposure related to
changes in interest rates. Assuming our current level of borrowings, a 100 basis
point increase in interest rates under these borrowings would increase our
interest expense for fiscal year 2000 by approximately $1.5 million without
taking into effect our interest rate collar agreement. We manage our exposure to
interest rate fluctuations on our variable rate debt through the use of an
interest rate collar agreement with a notional amount of $77.1 million at
December 30, 2000. The fair value of the collar was not significant as of
December 30, 2000. There were no material changes in interest rate risk since
December 30, 2000.

     Foreign Currency Exchange Risk.  Portions of our operations are located in
foreign jurisdictions including Europe and Mexico. Our financial results could
be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or
weak economic conditions in foreign markets. In addition, sales of products and
services are affected by the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other
currencies. We manage our foreign currency exposure through the use of foreign
currency option contracts. Notional amounts outstanding under such contracts
totaled $3.6 million at December 30, 2000. The fair values of the option
contracts were not significant as of December 30, 2000. There were no material
changes in foreign currency exchange risk since December 30, 2000.

     Euro Currency Conversion.  On January 1, 1999, several member countries of
the European Union established fixed conversion rates and adopted the euro as
their new legal currency. On that date, the euro began trading on currency
exchanges while legacy currencies remain legal tender in the participating
countries for a transition period between January 1, 1999 and January 1, 2002.
During the transition period, parties can elect to pay for goods and services
and transact business using either the euro or a legacy currency. Between
January 1, 2002 and July 1, 2002, the participating countries will introduce
euro hard currency and withdraw all legacy currencies.

     Our foreign operating subsidiaries affected by the euro conversion are
evaluating the business issues raised, including the competitive impact of
cross-border price transparency. We do not anticipate any significant near-term
business ramifications. However, long-term implications such as the euro
currency conversions effect on accounting, treasury and computer systems are
under review.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     We adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," effective
December 31, 2000. This standard establishes accounting and reporting standards
requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded on the balance sheet as
either an asset or a liability measured at fair value. SFAS 133 requires that
changes in a derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless
specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying
hedges allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related results on the
hedged item in the income statement and requires that a company must formally
document, designate and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive
hedge accounting treatment. The impact of adopting SFAS 133 was not material.

     In December 1999, the SEC staff released Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB)
101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." The adoption of this
statement in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2000 did not have a material
impact on our financial position or results of operations.

                                    BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

     We are a global designer, engineer and fabricator of a comprehensive
portfolio of equipment for gas turbine power plants, with over 30 years of power
generation industry experience. We believe that we are a leader in our industry,
offer one of the broadest ranges of gas turbine power plant equipment in the
world and hold the number one or number two market position by sales in a
majority of our product lines. Our equipment is installed in power plants in
more than 30 countries on six continents and we believe that we have one of the
largest installed bases of gas turbine power plant equipment in the world. In
addition, we provide our customers with value-added services including
engineering, retrofit and upgrade, and maintenance and repair.

     We sell our products to the gas turbine power generation market, the
fastest growing segment of the power generation industry. Our products are
critical to the efficient operation of gas turbine power plants and are highly
engineered to meet customer-specific requirements. Our products include:

     - heat recovery steam generators;

     - filter houses;

     - inlet systems;

     - gas and steam turbine enclosures;

     - exhaust systems;

     - diverter dampers; and

     - specialty boilers and related products.

We market and sell our products globally under the Deltak, Braden and
Consolidated Fabricators brand names through our worldwide sales network.

     We fabricate our equipment through a combination of in-house manufacturing
and extensive outsourcing relationships. Our network of exclusive
subcontractors, located throughout 30 countries, allows us to manufacture
equipment for power plant projects worldwide at competitive prices. Our
subcontractors also enable us to meet increasing demand without being restricted
by manufacturing capacity limitations, thus limiting capital expenditure
requirements.

     We believe our design and engineering capabilities differentiate us from
our competitors. By providing high-quality products on a timely basis and
offering a broad range of equipment, we have forged long-standing relationships
with the leading power industry participants, including General Electric,
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Siemens-Westinghouse, Bechtel and Duke Power. Our
revenues have grown from $142.7 million in fiscal year 1997 to $416.6 million in
fiscal year 2000, representing a compound annual growth rate of 42.9%.

GROWTH STRATEGY

     To maximize shareholder value and enhance our market position in the
growing power generation industry, we will continue to pursue the following
growth strategies:

     - Expand our leading market position in the high-growth U.S. market.  Our
       design and engineering expertise positions us to bid on and execute
       virtually any major gas turbine power plant project. According to the
       Energy Information Administration, or EIA, over 1,300 new power
       generation plants with approximately 390 gigawatts of electrical
       generation capacity will be needed in the United States by 2020 to meet
       demand. We believe that our reputation for quality products, low-cost
       fabrication and on-time delivery of a broad line of equipment have made
       us a critical supplier to our customers and end users, further
       strengthening our position as a market leader.

     - Leverage our presence in the emerging international power
       markets.  Through our international presence, we are positioned to
       undertake power generation projects throughout the world. According to
       the International Energy Agency, or IEA, approximately 90% of the $2.9
       trillion in worldwide electrical generation capacity investment through
       2020 will be expended outside of North America.

                                        38
   43

       Our global presence and experience allows us to serve our multinational
       customers' needs in a timely and efficient manner.

     - Pursue strategic acquisitions.  We intend to pursue selective
       acquisitions which will increase our market share in existing product
       lines, broaden our overall product offering and expand our geographic
       reach. The power generation equipment industry is highly fragmented,
       comprised largely of small companies or corporate divisions with
       relatively limited product lines. The fragmented nature of the industry
       provides us with numerous acquisition opportunities.

     - Leverage our design and engineering capabilities to expand our product
       lines.  We intend to expand our product lines to capture a larger share
       of our customers' equipment purchases. Through our design and engineering
       capabilities and experience in gas turbine technology, we have developed
       a number of complementary product lines, including inlet cooling systems,
       pulse filters, air filter elements and diverter dampers. Throughout our
       30-year history, we have also successfully introduced new end-use
       applications for our underlying technologies, including products for the
       process, marine, pulp and paper and pharmaceutical industries.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

  Supply and Demand Trends

     According to the EIA, U.S. demand for electricity generation has increased
substantially since 1990, while capacity has remained relatively flat.
Underbuilding of new power generation capacity due to deregulation uncertainty
and environmental concerns has caused reserve margins to fall. Based on North
American Electric Reliability Council, or NERC, data, reserve margins, the
difference between total capacity and peak electricity demand as a percentage of
total capacity, have fallen to historically low levels over the last decade.
U.S. reserve margins have fallen from 21.1% in 1992 to 7.1% in 1999, resulting
in electricity price increases. In some areas of the United States, such as
California, these margins have fallen even lower, causing numerous brownouts.
Internationally, although many developing countries are moving towards
industrialization and electrification, according to the IEA, approximately
one-third of the world's population is still without electricity. Significant
new worldwide generation capacity is necessary to keep pace with international
demand growth, which is expanding at more than twice the rate of U.S. demand.

  Gas Turbine Technology

     Gas turbine power plants are well-positioned to benefit from the need for
new or more efficient power generation infrastructure. The advantages of power
generation plants utilizing gas turbine technologies versus other technologies
include:

     - lower construction costs;

     - shorter construction period;

     - improved operating efficiency;

     - lower environmental impact;

     - ability to expand plant capacity; and

     - rapid start-up and shut-down time.

Due to these advantages, IEA projects that approximately 90% of new U.S.
generation capacity and approximately 51% of new generation capacity outside the
United States, net of retirements, through 2020 will utilize gas turbine
technology.

     Gas turbine power plants can have either a simple-cycle or combined-cycle
configuration, both of which utilize a gas turbine and a generator to produce
electricity. A simple-cycle gas turbine plant incorporates many of the products
which we manufacture, including filter houses, inlet and exhaust

                                        39
   44

systems and turbine enclosures. A simple-cycle plant converts approximately 33%
of the fuel's energy content into electricity. A combined-cycle plant has the
same components as a simple-cycle plant, with the addition of a heat recovery
steam generator, or HRSG. In a combined-cycle plant, the hot exhaust from the
gas turbine is routed through the HRSG where steam is generated which is used to
power a steam turbine and produce more electricity. A combined-cycle power plant
converts up to 57% of the fuel's energy content into electricity. As a result of
this increased efficiency, the EIA projects that domestic combined-cycle plant
capacity will increase more than ten times over the next 20 years. As a leading
provider of equipment for simple- and combined-cycle power plants, we are
well-positioned to benefit from these trends and, as a result, to increase our
revenues and earnings.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

     We conduct our business through two operating segments: our heat recovery
equipment segment and our auxiliary power equipment segment. We offer a broad
range of products that are integral parts of gas turbine power plants. We also
provide advanced engineering, retrofit and upgrade, maintenance and repair
services to the power generation industry. For information regarding our
revenues, profitability and total assets by segment, see note 11 to our
consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.

  Heat Recovery Equipment

     Our heat recovery equipment segment is a leader in the production of HRSGs
and specialty boilers. Our products in this segment are marketed under the
Deltak brand name.

     - Heat Recovery Steam Generators.  A HRSG is a boiler that creates steam in
       a combined-cycle power plant using the hot exhaust emitted by a gas
       turbine. This steam generates additional electricity by driving a steam
       turbine in a combined-cycle power plant. Each HRSG is custom-designed and
       engineered to meet the specifications of the customer, taking into
       account the type of gas turbine and environmental locale. We design and
       manufacture HRSGs for all size applications for both new combined cycle
       and retrofitted simple-cycle power plants. We believe we are the overall
       market leader with the largest installed base of gas turbine HRSGs in the
       world.

     - Specialty Boilers and Related Products.  Specialty boilers are a highly
       customized class of equipment that capture waste heat and convert it into
       steam. We produce specialty boilers used in process heat recovery and
       incineration systems, small power generation systems and marine
       cogeneration systems. Our specialty boilers, which require creative
       engineering solutions, are used in a wide range of markets, including oil
       and gas, pulp and paper, chemicals, petrochemical, marine and food
       industries. We have an installed base of more than 600 specialty boilers
       in over 30 countries. In addition, we design and manufacture catalytic
       recovery systems for gas turbine exhaust systems which reduce emissions.

  Auxiliary Power Equipment

     Our auxiliary power equipment segment includes a variety of products and
services critical to the operation of gas turbine power plants. These products
are marketed under the Braden and Consolidated Fabricators brand names.

     - Filter Houses.  A filter house cleans debris, dirt and other contaminants
       from the air that enters the turbine, using either a barrier filter or a
       pulse filter. Barrier filters use a series of filter elements contained
       in a large filter house to remove airborne contaminants. Pulse filters
       are self-cleaning filters that use a blast of air to expel dirt or ice
       from the filter element. In addition, a filter house may include
       evaporative coolers, chiller coils, fog cooling systems, anti-icing
       systems and a broad range of other equipment that treats the air that is
       pulled through the turbine.

                                        40
   45

     - Inlet Systems.  Inlet systems are large air intake ducts that connect the
       filter house to the gas turbine and provide silencing for the noise
       emanating from the gas turbine through the inlet. The major components of
       an inlet system are inlet silencers, expansion joints and inlet ductwork.

     - Gas and Steam Turbine Enclosures.  Gas and steam turbine enclosures
       protect the turbines from the environment. In addition, they provide
       acoustical treatment to reduce the noise produced by gas and steam
       turbines. Fire suppression systems are also an integral feature of most
       enclosures.

     - Exhaust Systems.  Exhaust systems direct the hot exhaust from the turbine
       to the atmosphere. The main components of an exhaust system are exhaust
       ductwork, acoustic silencing equipment and the stack. Exhaust systems are
       highly engineered and very complex due to the severe turbulence and heat
       exposure that they must endure.

     - Diverter Dampers.  Diverter dampers divert the hot exhaust from the gas
       turbine into a HRSG when the power plant is operated as a combined-cycle
       facility or into the exhaust stack in the case of simple-cycle operation.
       We also design and manufacture various other types of dampers.

BACKLOG

     The time frame between receipt of an order and actual completion or
delivery of our products can stretch from a few weeks to a year or more. At the
time we receive a firm order from a customer, that order is added to our
backlog. Over the last five years, virtually all backlog has been subsequently
recognized as revenues.



                                       AS OF FISCAL YEAR END,        AS OF        AS OF

Backlog............................  $206.0    $289.4    $464.6     $297.2       $633.6


We estimate that approximately $492 million, or 78%, of our backlog at March 31,
2001, will be recognized as a portion of our revenues in the remaining three
quarters of fiscal year 2001.

SALES AND MARKETING

     We have an extensive sales network consisting of employees and independent
representatives worldwide. We have sales offices in Australia, China, Egypt, the
Netherlands, Singapore, South Korea and the United States. Our international
sales force allows us to assess local market conditions, utilize local contacts
and respond quickly to our customers' regional needs. We focus our sales and
marketing efforts on end users of our products, including the developers and
operators of gas turbine power plants, and on gas turbine original equipment
manufacturers who may order our products directly or specify the use of our
products.

CUSTOMERS

     Customers for both our heat recovery equipment segment and our auxiliary
power equipment segment include original equipment manufacturers, engineering
and construction firms and operators of power generation facilities. The end
users of most of our products are developers and operators of gas turbine power
plants. Our top ten customers vary from year to year due to the relative size
and duration of our projects. In fiscal year 2000, General Electric accounted
for approximately 31% of our revenues and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries accounted
for approximately 22% of our revenues. For information with respect to our
geographic markets, see note 11 to our consolidated financial statements
included elsewhere in this prospectus.

ENGINEERING AND DESIGN CAPABILITIES

     Our business is driven by design and engineering expertise, an area in
which we believe that we are an industry leader. Our products are
custom-designed and engineered to meet the precise specifications of our

                                        41
   46

customers, and may require a significant number of engineering hours to design.
As of December 30, 2000, we employed 136 degreed engineers specializing in
thermal, structural, electrical, mechanical, acoustical and chemical
engineering. Our engineers utilize an extensive PC-based network and engineering
programs such as AutoCad(TM), ANSYS(TM), StruCAD(TM) and several internally
developed proprietary programs. Our proprietary programs enable us to use design
elements from previous projects, thereby increasing our engineering efficiency
on subsequent projects.

MANUFACTURING AND OUTSOURCING

     Our products are fabricated utilizing a combination of in-house
manufacturing and subcontractors. Our extensive use of outsourcing relationships
provides us the following benefits:

     - flexibility to rapidly expand or contract manufacturing capacity without
       increasing capital expenditures;

     - ability to manufacture in low cost countries, thereby reducing the
       overall cost of our products; and

     - ability to satisfy local content requirements.

     In fiscal year 2000, we estimate that subcontractors accounted for
approximately 70% of our manufacturing costs. Our subcontractors manufacture
products on a fixed-price basis for each project. Typically, our subcontractors
agree not to manufacture competing products. We provide on-site technical
advisors at our subcontracted facilities to ensure high levels of quality and
workmanship. We are constantly pursuing new international subcontractor
relationships to enhance our ability to manufacture equipment at the lowest cost
while maintaining high-quality standards and on-time delivery.

     While a majority of our manufacturing is outsourced, we maintain
significant in-house capabilities. Our in-house manufacturing capability allows
us to internally develop production methods, train personnel, protect highly
sensitive designs and fabricate products whose complexity may preclude their
production by subcontractors.

RAW MATERIALS AND SUPPLIERS

     The principal raw materials for our products are stainless steel sheet
products, carbon steel plate and structural shapes, insulation and finned
tubing. We obtain these products from a number of domestic and foreign
suppliers. The market for most of the raw materials we use is comprised of
numerous participants and we believe that we can obtain each of the raw
materials we required from more than one supplier.

COMPETITION

     We compete with a large number of U.S. and international companies along
all of our major products lines. We believe that our major competitors generally
are small companies or corporate divisions that offer relatively limited product
lines and do not compete on a global basis. We compete based on the price,
quality, reliability and reputation of our products. We believe that no single
competitor offers our breadth of products to the gas turbine power generation
industry.

EMPLOYEES


     As of December 30, 2000, we had 1,333 employees. Other than 155 of our
manufacturing employees located in Tulsa, Oklahoma and 122 of our production
employees at our three Mexico facilities, none of our employees are represented
by unions. We believe our employee relations are satisfactory.


INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

     We depend upon a combination of patents, trademarks and nondisclosure and
confidentiality agreements with our employees, customers and others and various
security measures to protect our proprietary rights. Designs and processes are
developed for specific projects and are charged directly to such projects. Due
to the unique nature of each project, we typically do not reuse our designs.
Also, our
                                        42
   47

customers are contractually obligated to treat these designs as confidential and
proprietary. For these reasons, we do not generally pursue patent protection.
However, we believe that intellectual property protection is less important than
our ability to continue to develop new design applications that meet the demands
of our customers. As a result, we do not believe that any single patent or
trademark is material to our business.

     We typically enter into non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements with
our employees and subcontractors with access to sensitive design software and
technology. However, this protection does not preclude others from creating
programs which perform the same function. In addition, our agreements may be
breached and we may not have adequate remedies for any breach.

FACILITIES

     Our executive offices currently occupy 5,300 square feet in Tulsa,
Oklahoma. The lease for this facility expires in May 2002. We have 13 other U.S.
facilities, as well as facilities in the Netherlands, Singapore and Mexico.
Information about our material facilities is described below:

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In March 2001, one of our subcontractors commenced a lawsuit against Deltak
Construction Services, Inc., one of our subsidiaries, seeking $7.9 million in
damages plus interest and costs. The subcontractor alleges that our subsidiary
failed to pay it for work on a project. We believe that we have meritorious
defenses and intend to defend the action vigorously. In addition, our subsidiary
has filed counterclaims against the subcontractor alleging, among other things,
breach of two contracts, seeking (1) $1.8 million in damages and (2) either $8.0
million in lost profits or the return of a $1.7 million payment previously made.

     In addition, we are subject to routine litigation arising out of the normal
and ordinary operation of our business, which we believe will not result in a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial
condition.

                                        43

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

     Our operations are subject to laws and regulations governing the discharge
of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the
environment or human health. These laws include U.S. federal statutes such as
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, or CERCLA, the
Clean Water Act and the Clean Air Act, and the regulations implementing them, as
well as similar laws and regulations at the state and local levels and in other
countries in which we operate.

     Failure to comply with environmental laws or regulations could subject us
to significant liabilities for fines, penalties or damages, or result in the
denial or loss of significant operating permits. In addition, some environmental
laws, including CERCLA, impose liability for the costs of investigating and
remediating releases of hazardous substances without regard to fault and on a
joint and several basis, so that in some circumstances we may be liable for
costs attributable to hazardous substances released into the environment by
others.

     Our manufacturing facilities use and produce wastes containing various
substances classified as hazardous or otherwise regulated under environmental
laws and regulations, and are subject to ongoing compliance costs and capital
expenditure requirements. We believe we are in substantial compliance with
applicable environmental laws and regulations and that the costs of compliance
are not material to us. However, any newly-discovered environmental conditions
could result in unanticipated expenses or liabilities that would be material.
Moreover, the environmental laws and regulations to which we are subject are
constantly changing, and it is impossible to predict the effect of these changes
on us. We cannot give any assurances that our operations will comply with future
laws and regulations or that these laws and regulations will not significantly
adversely affect us.

COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD

     Our board of directors has the authority to perform management and
administration functions. Following this offering, we intend to establish an
audit committee, a compensation committee and an executive committee.

     Upon completion of this offering, we will adopt an audit committee charter
and establish an audit committee comprised of three directors who satisfy the
New York Stock Exchange rules on the independence of audit committee members.
Initially, Messrs. Sohlen and Hotard will serve on our audit committee. The
functions of the audit committee will include reviewing the adequacy of our
systems of internal accounting controls; reviewing the results of the
independent auditors' annual audit, including any significant adjustments,
management judgments and estimates, new accounting policies and disagreements
with management; reviewing our audited financial statements and discussing them
with management; reviewing the audit reports submitted by the independent
auditors; reviewing disclosure by independent auditors concerning relationships
with our company and the performance of our independent auditors and annually
recommending independent auditors; adopting and annually assessing our audit
charter; and preparing any reports or statements as may be required by the New
York Stock Exchange and the securities laws.

     Upon the completion of this offering, the compensation committee will
consist of at least two non-employee directors, as defined in Rule 16b-3 under
the Securities Act. Mr. Sohlen and a non-employee director to be appointed after
completion of this offering will serve on our compensation committee. The
compensation committee will review and make recommendations to the board
regarding our compensation policies and all forms of compensation to be provided
to our executive officers and directors. In addition, the compensation committee
will review bonus and stock compensation arrangements for all of our employees
and directors.

     The executive committee will consist of Messrs. Eisenstein, Kleinman and
Edwards. The functions of the executive committee will include the oversight of
general corporate matters and approval of all major capital expenditures.

less than $275,000 for Mr. Edwards, $200,000 for Mr. Obermiller, $157,000 for
Mr. Schockemoehl, $120,778 for Mr. Hackner and $108,800 for Mr. Wilson. Each

renewable unless we give sixty days written notice, and contains customary
non-competition, non-solicitation of employees and confidentiality provisions.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

to directors of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. appointed pursuant to the management

for serving in that capacity. We reimburse directors for out-of-pocket expenses
incurred in

                                        47

attending board meetings. Our board of directors has the discretion to grant
options to non-employee directors under our stock option plans.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

     We currently do not have a compensation committee. The compensation
arrangements for each of our executive officers were established under the terms
of the respective employment agreements between us and each executive officer.
The terms of the employment agreements were established in arms-length
negotiations between us and each executive officer and approved by our board of
directors.

     Mr. Sohlen and another non-employee director to be appointed after
completion of this offering will serve on the compensation committee. Mr. Sohlen
has never been an officer or employee of ours. Prior to formation of the
compensation committee, all decisions regarding executive compensation will be
made by the full board of directors. No interlocking relationship will exist
between the board of directors or the compensation committee and the board of
directors or compensation committee of any other company, nor has any
interlocking relationship existed in the past.

     The following table summarizes the compensation paid to the chief executive
officer of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. and to each of the other four most highly

(1) The options were granted on the date of grant with a term of 10 years,
    unless otherwise noted.

(2) In accordance with the rules of the SEC, we have included the gains or
    "option spreads" that would exist for the respective options granted. These
    gains are based on the assumed rates of annual compound stock price
    appreciation of 5% and 10% from the date the option was granted over the
    full option term. These assumed annual compound rates of stock price
    appreciation are mandated by the rules of the SEC and do not represent our
    estimate or projection of our future common stock prices.

(1) There was no public market for the common stock on December 30, 2000. The

MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

     Our 2000 Management Incentive Compensation Plan became effective on January
1, 2000 to reward our chief executive officer, vice presidents and other key
management with additional performance-based

                                        49
   54

compensation. The Management Incentive Compensation Plan effective for fiscal
year 2000 and prior years allowed an eligible participant to earn bonuses up to
stated percentages of base salary for the achievement of 100% of our targeted
performance as established at the time of our business plan. These bonuses were
paid in the first quarter of each calendar year following the accrual. For
fiscal year 2000, the percentages for the participants were (1) up to a maximum
of 100% for Mr. Edwards; (2) up to a maximum of 80% for Messrs. Obermiller and
Schockemoehl; and (3) up to a maximum of 60% for our vice presidents and other
participants.

     We have adopted a 2001 Management Incentive Compensation Plan. The new plan
allows eligible participants to earn bonuses up to stated percentages of their
base salary with maximum bonuses of (1) up to 150% for our president and chief
executive officer; (2) up to 110% for our senior vice presidents; and (3) up to
90% for our vice presidents and other participants. The bonuses will be paid in
the first quarter of the following calendar year and will be based on our
specific achievement of enterprise valuation goals.

2000 OPTION PLAN

     The board of directors of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. approved its 2000 Option
Plan in August 2000. The 2000 Option Plan provided for the grant of options to
acquire class A or class B common units in GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. When we
complete the reorganization transaction, all options outstanding under the 2000
Option Plan prior to the reorganization will vest and become fully exercisable
and will be converted into options to purchase shares of our common stock with
the same economic value, and otherwise on the same terms. Similarly, we will
assume the 2000 Option Plan and common units available for option grants under
such plan will be replaced by shares of our common stock with the same economic
value as of the completion of the reorganization transaction. The following is a
summary description of the 2000 Option Plan as it will apply to us after the
reorganization transaction. You should read the text of the 2000 Option Plan,
which we have filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this
prospectus is a part, for a full statement of the terms and provisions of the
2000 Option Plan.

     The board of directors administers the 2000 Option Plan and may grant
options under the plan to selected key executives or employees to purchase up to
an aggregate total of 3,440,257 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment if
particular capital changes affect the common stock, as described below. An
option permits, but does not require, the option holder to purchase up to a
particular number of shares of common stock, by exercising the option, at a
price fixed by the board of directors when the option is granted, during a
specified period of time following grant of the option if particular conditions
are satisfied. Those conditions may relate to one or more of the following: (1)
the passage of a specified period of time, (2) our achievement of particular
performance goals or (3) the fulfillment of other specified conditions. In the
event of a sale of the business, as defined in the 2000 Option Plan, the board
of directors may, in its discretion under the plan, notify plan participants
that any or all options outstanding under the plan will (1) become immediately
vested and, if not exercised, will terminate on the date of the sale of the
company or another date designated by the board of directors, or (2) become a
right to receive consideration that the board of directors deems equitable in
the circumstances based on the difference between the consideration to be
received in connection with such sale of the business and the exercise price of
the options. For purposes of the option plan, a sale of the company generally
means any transaction or series of transactions which results, directly or
indirectly, in (1) the sale of all or substantially all of the company's and its
subsidiaries' assets to persons other than Harvest Partners, Inc. or its
affiliates or (2) a sale or transfer of a majority of our outstanding voting
securities or the outstanding voting securities of GEEG Acquisition Holdings
Corp. to persons other than Harvest Partners, Inc. or its affiliates.

     The exercise price of options may be paid by option holders in cash, using
shares of our common stock already owned by the option holder, through a
cashless exercise procedure approved by the board of directors or a combination
of these payment methods.

     Option holders may not transfer their options under the option plan.
However, if an option holder becomes disabled or dies, that option holder's
options may be exercised by the legal representative of the

                                        50
   55

option holder or of his or her estate, or by the laws of descent and
distribution. An option holder may exercise his or her option under the 2000
Option Plan within 90 days after his or her employment with the company or any
of our subsidiaries terminates, or, if such termination of employment is due to
the option holder's death, the option may be exercised within 180 days after his
or her death. However, the option may only be exercised after the option
holder's employment terminates to the extent that it is vested on the date of
termination, and an option cannot be exercised after its stated expiration date.

     In the event of particular changes in our capital structure, such as a
recapitalization, reorganization, consolidation, merger, asset sale, unit or
stock dividend or split or other change in our common stock, we may make certain
changes to the 2000 Option Plan or options granted under the plan. If the
particular change in our capital structure results in holders of common stock
becoming entitled to receive units, stock, securities or assets in respect of
their common stock, options under the 2000 Option Plan may only be exercised for
those units, shares of stock, securities or assets, including cash, that would
be issued or paid in respect of the number and class of shares of common stock
subject to the options prior to that change in our capital structure. The board
of directors may terminate options outstanding under the plan in the event of a
change in our capital structure described in the preceding sentence, subject to
payment to the holders of those options of the consideration that the board of
directors deems equitable in the circumstances. The board of directors may, as
it determines to be appropriate and equitable, adjust (1) the number and type of
units or shares or other consideration as to which options may be granted under
the 2000 Option Plan, (2) the number and type of units or shares covered by
outstanding options, (3) the exercise prices of outstanding options and (4)
other provisions of the 2000 Option Plan specifying a number of units or shares,
to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights under the 2000 Option Plan or
outstanding options in the event of particular changes in our capital structure
specified in the plan.


     To date, options to purchase 2,921,359 shares of common stock have been
granted under the 2000 Option Plan and 518,898 shares of common stock remain
available for future option grants under the 2000 Option Plan. No options have
been exercised under the 2000 Option Plan. We have the right under the 2000
Option Plan to repurchase common stock issued to an option holder upon any
exercise of his or her options under the plan if the option holder's employment
terminates, and, if the termination is due to the option holder's death or
disability, the option holder or his or her executor or administrator can
require us to repurchase his or her shares of common stock that are not
otherwise repurchased by us according to the terms of the plan. These repurchase
rights will terminate upon the closing of this offering. The 2000 Option Plan
restricts the transferability of shares of common stock purchased under the
option plan; however, the 2000 Option Plan permits the board of directors to
waive these restrictions and, in any event, permits option holders to transfer
their shares of common stock in public sales beginning two years after this
offering. If requested by Harvest Partners, Inc., participants in the 2000
Option Plan will be deemed to have agreed to vote any shares of common stock
purchased under their options in favor of any sale of the business, as defined
in the plan, and to sell those shares in connection with that sale of the
business.


     The board of directors may amend or terminate the 2000 Option Plan, subject
to particular limitations specified in the plan. No options may be granted under
the 2000 Option Plan after August 1, 2010.

2001 STOCK OPTION PLAN

     We have adopted a 2001 Stock Option Plan, which will become effective
immediately prior to this offering. The 2001 Option Plan is intended to further
our success by increasing the ownership interest of our employees, directors and
consultants in our company and to enhance our ability to attract and retain
employees, directors and consultants of outstanding ability. This is a summary
of the 2001 Option Plan. You should read the text of the 2001 Option Plan, which
we filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is
a part, for a full statement of the terms and provisions of the 2001 Option
Plan.

                                        51

     We may issue up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment
if particular capital changes affect the common stock, upon the exercise of
options granted under the new option plan. Options to purchase no more than
1,500,000 shares of common stock can be granted under the 2001 Option Plan to a
single individual in a particular calendar year. The options may be incentive
stock options, which are intended to provide employees with beneficial income
tax consequences, or non-qualified stock options. The shares of common stock
that may be issued under the 2001 Option Plan may be either authorized and
unissued shares or previously issued shares held as treasury stock. As of the
closing of this offering, no options will have been granted under the 2001
Option Plan.

     An option permits, but does not require, the option holder to purchase up
to a specified number of shares of common stock, by exercising the option, at a
price fixed when the option is granted, during a specified period of time
following such grant, if particular conditions are satisfied. The exercise price
of an option granted under the 2001 Option Plan will be determined by the
compensation committee of the board of directors but must be equal to or greater
than the fair market value of the common stock when the option is granted. An
option holder may pay the exercise price of an option by any legal manner that
we permit, which may include use of shares of our common stock already owned by
the option holder or by a broker-assisted cashless exercise procedure.

     The compensation committee will administer the 2001 Option Plan. The board
of directors may, subject to any legal limitations, exercise any powers or
duties of the compensation committee concerning the 2001 Option Plan. The
compensation committee will select eligible employees, directors and consultants
of us and our affiliates to receive options and will determine the number of
shares of common stock covered by options, the period of time during which
options may be exercised, but in no event more than 10 years from the grant date
of an option, and the other terms and conditions of options in accordance with
the provisions of the 2001 Option Plan. Option holders may not transfer their
options unless they die or, in the case of non-qualified options, the
compensation committee determines otherwise.

     If we undergo a change of control, as defined in the 2001 Option Plan, all
outstanding options will immediately become fully exercisable, and the
compensation committee may adjust outstanding options by substituting stock or
other securities of any successor or another party to the change in control
transaction, or cash out such outstanding options, in any such case, generally
based on the consideration received by our shareholders in the transaction.

     Subject to particular limitations specified in the 2001 Option Plan, the
board of directors may amend or terminate the 2001 Option Plan, and the
compensation committee may amend options outstanding under the 2001 Option Plan,
but no such amendment may impair the previously accrued rights of options
without his or her written consent. The 2001 Option Plan will terminate no later
than 10 years from the date the plan was approved. However, any options
outstanding when the 2001 Option Plan terminates will remain outstanding in
accordance with their terms.

                       PRINCIPAL AND SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

     The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial
ownership of our common stock on a pro forma basis to give effect to the
reorganization transaction both immediately before and immediately following
this offering by:

     - each person that we know will own beneficially more than five percent, in
       the aggregate, of the outstanding shares of our common stock;

     - our directors and our named executive officers;

     - all executive officers and directors as a group; and

     - each selling stockholder.

     The information in this table and the related footnotes is based upon the
beneficial ownership of equity interests in GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. as of March
31, 2001, and gives effect to the exchange of these interests for shares of our
common stock in connection with the reorganization transaction and the
distribution of those shares, assuming an initial public offering price of
$17.00 (the mid-point of the range set forth on the cover of this prospectus).

     The selling stockholders have granted the underwriters an option to
purchase up to 1,102,500 shares of common stock to cover over-allotments, if
any. If the underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option, the
selling stockholders will not sell any shares in the offering.

     We determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC,
which generally require inclusion of shares over which a person has voting or
investment power. Share ownership in each case includes shares issuable upon
exercise of outstanding options that are exercisable within 60 days. Except as
otherwise indicated, the address for each of the named individuals is c/o Global
Power Equipment Group Inc., 6120 South Yale, Suite 1480, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74136.

                              CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

THE AUGUST 2000 RECAPITALIZATION

     In connection with the August 2000 recapitalization, we paid existing
investors in GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. approximately $233 million for certain of
their equity interests and officers, directors and employees of GEEG Holdings,
L.L.C. approximately $38.1 million in consideration for cancellation of options.
For additional information regarding the August 2000 recapitalization, see
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- Overview." A portion of the financing for the August 2000
recapitalization was provided by affiliates of Credit Suisse First Boston
Corporation and Deutsche Banc Alex. Brown Inc. See "Underwriting."

HARVEST MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

     In connection with the August 2000 recapitalization, Global Energy
Equipment Group, L.L.C., an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of GEEG Holdings,
L.L.C., entered into a management agreement with Harvest Partners, Inc. which
will be amended and assumed by us immediately prior to completion of this
offering. Under this agreement, in August 2000, Harvest Partners, Inc. received
from Global Energy Equipment Group, L.L.C. a one time fee of $5.0 million for
structuring and implementing the recapitalization and its equity investment.
This fee was fully disclosed to the equity holders of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. and
we believe this fee is customary for transactions like the recapitalization. In
addition, Global Energy Equipment Group, L.L.C. paid Harvest Partners, Inc. fees
and reimbursed expenses aggregating $420,000 in 2000 and $400,000 in February
2001 for financial advisory and strategic planning services provided to Global
Energy Equipment Group, L.L.C. and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Under the
amended agreement, Harvest Partners, Inc. will provide us with financial
advisory and strategic planning services. For these ongoing services under the
amended management agreement, Harvest Partners, Inc. will receive an annual
management fee of $1.25 million, payable semi-annually in advance beginning on
August 1, 2001. After the initial term of the management agreement, in any
subsequent renewal period the management fee will decrease to $750,000 if the
affiliates of Harvest Partners, Inc. sell more than 50% of the shares of our
common stock that they will own after this offering. The management fee will be
eliminated, and the management agreement will terminate, if in any subsequent
renewal period the affiliates of Harvest Partners, Inc. sell more than 66.6% of
the shares of our common stock that they will own after this offering. In
addition, under a letter agreement, Harvest Partners, Inc. will receive a
one-time payment of $500,000 in connection with the refinancing of our senior
credit facility. We will also reimburse Harvest Partners, Inc. for all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to the services it provides. Stephen
Eisenstein, who is one of our directors and a director of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C.,
has been a general partner of Harvest Partners, Inc. and a member of Harvest
Associates III, L.L.C., since 1999. Ira Kleinman, who is a director of GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C. and who will be a member of our board of directors at the
completion of this offering, has been a general partner of Harvest Partners,
Inc. and a member of Harvest Associates III, L.L.C. since 1992. For information
regarding the equity ownership of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. by affiliates of Harvest
Partners, Inc., see "Principal and Selling Stockholders."

SAW MILL MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

     In connection with the August 2000 recapitalization, Global Energy
Equipment Group, L.L.C. (1) terminated an existing management agreement with Saw
Mill Capital L.L.C. and paid it $550,000 and (2) entered into a new management
agreement with Saw Mill Capital L.L.C. which will be terminated immediately
prior to the completion of this offering. Under this agreement, Global Energy
Equipment Group, L.L.C. paid Saw Mill Capital L.L.C. fees and reimbursed
expenses aggregating $233,864 in 2000 and $75,000 in February 2001. After
completion of this offering and the reorganization transaction, we will pay Saw
Mill Capital L.L.C. the sum of $278,711 for termination of the existing
management agreement. For information regarding Saw Mill Capital L.L.C.'s equity
ownership of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C., see "Principal and Selling Stockholders."

EQUITYHOLDERS AND REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

     Upon the completion of the August 2000 recapitalization, GEEG Holdings,
L.L.C. and all of its direct and indirect equityholders, including Harvest
Partners, Inc., on behalf of the limited partnerships which are stockholders of
GEEG Acquisition Holdings Corp., and Saw Mill Capital L.L.C., entered into an
equityholders agreement. Under this agreement, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. agrees to
use its reasonable efforts to register an equityholder's common equity (1) at
any time if requested by Harvest Partners, Inc. or (2) at any time after 18
months from the date of its initial public offering if requested by Saw Mill
Capital L.L.C. or the holders of 25% of the common equity issued in connection
with the senior subordinated loan. If GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. proposes to register
a public offering of any of its securities under the Securities Act, either for
its own account after this offering or for the account of other security holders
exercising registration rights at any time, the parties to the equityholders
agreement are entitled to notice of the registration and are entitled to include
securities in the registration. After completion of this offering and the
reorganization transaction, the equityholders agreement will terminate and we
will enter into a registration rights agreement with the former members of GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C. containing substantially the same registration rights as
described above.

                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

     The following is a summary of the material provisions of our certificate of
incorporation as it will be amended and restated immediately prior to the
closing of the offering made by this prospectus. A copy of our certificate of
incorporation and the form of the amended and restated certificate of
incorporation to be filed prior to the closing of the offering being made by
this prospectus are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which
this prospectus is a part. Our capital stock will consist of (1) 100,000,000
authorized shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of which
37,493,264 will be outstanding based on the number of preferred and common units
of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. outstanding immediately prior to the completion of this
offering and (2) 5,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value
per share, of which no shares will be outstanding.

COMMON STOCK

     The holders of our common stock will be entitled to one vote for each share
held on all matters voted upon by stockholders, including the election of
directors and any proposed amendment to the certificate of incorporation. The
holders of our common stock will not have cumulative voting rights and therefore
holders of a majority of the shares voting for the election of directors will be
able to elect all of the directors. In this event, the holders of the remaining
shares will not be able to elect any directors. The holders of our common stock
will be entitled to any dividends as may be declared at the discretion of our
board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose. The holders
of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in our net assets upon
liquidation after payment or provision for all liabilities and the preferential
amounts owing with respect to any outstanding preferred stock. All shares of
common stock will be fully paid and non-assessable.

PREFERRED STOCK

     Our board of directors has the authority to issue preferred stock in one or
more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions
granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued shares of undesignated preferred
stock and to fix the number of shares constituting any series and the
designations of that series, without any further vote or action by the
stockholders. Our board of directors, without stockholder approval, can issue
preferred stock with voting and conversion rights which could adversely affect
the voting power of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock
may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of
our company, or could delay or prevent a transaction that might otherwise give
our stockholders an opportunity to realize a premium over the then prevailing
market price of our common stock.

PROVISIONS IN CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BY-LAWS

  Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation,
Bylaws and Delaware Law

     Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

     We have provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws that:

     - provide that all directors will be part of a classified board of
       directors that results in only approximately one-third of our directors
       within the classified board being elected at each annual meeting of
       stockholders;

     - require approval of at least 35% of our stockholders in order to call a
       special meeting of stockholders or bring matters before a special meeting
       of stockholders;

     - eliminate the ability of our stockholders to act by written consent;

     - require stockholders to give us advance notice of their intent to
       nominate directors or bring matters before an annual meeting of
       stockholders; and

     - permit the board of directors to create one or more series of preferred
       stock and to issue the shares thereof.

     These provisions could adversely affect the rights of the holders of common
stock by delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control or the removal of
the incumbent board of directors. These

                                        59
   64

provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in
the composition of the board of directors and in the policies formulated by the
board of directors and to discourage any types of transactions that may involve
an actual or threatened change of control. These provisions are designed to
reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal and to
discourage tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, these provisions
could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our
shares and, as a consequence, they also may inhibit fluctuations in the market
price of our shares that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts.
These provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our
management.

     Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute

     Prior to this offering, our certificate of incorporation provided that we
would not be governed by Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. In
connection with this offering, we have amended our certificate of incorporation
to become subject to Section 203. Neither Harvest Partners III, L.P. nor Harvest
Partners III, GbR will be subject to the restrictions of Section 203, as each of
them was an "interested stockholder" prior to this amendment. Section 203,
subject to specific exceptions, prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation
from engaging in any "business combination" with any "interested stockholder"
for a period of three years following the date that the stockholder became an
interested stockholder, unless:

     - prior to that date, the board of directors approved either the business
       combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming
       an interested stockholder;

     - upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder
       becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at
       least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time
       the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the
       number of shares outstanding those shares owned by directors, officers
       and specific employee stock plans; or

     - on or after that date, the business combination is approved by the board
       of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of
       stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at
       least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the
       interested stockholder.

     Section 203 defines "business combination" to include:

     - any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested
       stockholder;

     - any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of our
       assets involving the interested stockholder;

     - subject to limited exceptions, any transaction that results in the
       issuance or transfer by us of any of our stock to the interested
       stockholder;

     - any transaction involving us that has the effect of increasing the
       proportionate share of the stock of any class or series beneficially
       owned by the interested stockholder; and

     - the receipt by the "interested stockholder" of the benefit of any loans,
       advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or
       through the corporation.

     In general, Section 203 defines an interested stockholder as an entity or
person beneficially owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock and any
entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by that entity or
person.

LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

     Our certificate of incorporation limits the liability of our directors and
officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation
Law.

LISTING

     We have applied to have our common stock listed on the New York Stock
Exchange under the trading symbol "GEG."

TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR

     The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is EquiServe Trust
Company, N.A.

                        SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

     Before this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock.
The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of common stock in the
public market after this offering, or the perception that these types of sales
could occur, could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time.
Sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market after this
offering could also adversely affect our ability to raise equity capital in the
future.

     After this offering, we will have 44,843,264 shares of common stock
outstanding assuming no exercise of outstanding options. Of these shares,
7,350,000 shares of common stock (8,452,500 shares if the overallotment option
is exercised in full) sold in this offering will be freely tradable without
restriction under the Securities Act, unless purchased by our "affiliates" as
that term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.

     Shares held by our affiliates and the remaining shares of common stock held
by existing stockholders are "restricted securities" under Rule 144 of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Generally, restricted securities that have
been owned for two years may be sold immediately after the completion of this
offering and restricted securities that have been owned for at least one year
may be sold 90 days after completion of this offering subject to compliance with
the volume and other limitations of Rule 144, which are summarized below.

     The following table illustrates the shares eligible for sale in the public
market (assuming no exercise of the overallotment option), subject to the
lock-up agreements described below and in "Underwriting."



NUMBER OF SHARES                               DATE
----------------                               ----
                
  7,350,000        Upon the date of this prospectus subject, in some cases, to
                   volume and manner of sale limitations under Rule 144.
 37,493,264        At various times after the later of 180 days after the date
                   of this prospectus or expiration of applicable one year
                   holding periods, subject to volume and manner of sale
                   limitations under Rule 144.


RULE 144

     In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, beginning 90 days after
this offering, a person who has beneficially owned "restricted securities" for
at least one year is entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of
shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of our then-outstanding shares of
common stock or the average weekly trading volume of our common stock on the New
York Stock Exchange during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a
notice of the sale on Form 144. Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner
of sale provisions, notice requirements and the availability of current public
information about us. A person who is not deemed to have been one of our
affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has
beneficially owned "restricted securities" for at least two years would be
entitled to sell the shares under Rule 144(k) without regard to the volume
limitations, manner of sale provisions, public information requirements or
notice requirements. Therefore, unless otherwise restricted, shares eligible for
sale under Rule 144(k) may be sold immediately upon completion of this offering.

RULE 701

     Our employees, directors, officers, consultants or advisers who purchased
common stock from us under written compensatory benefit plans or written
contracts relating to the compensation of these persons prior to the date we
became subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, may rely on Rule 701 with respect to the resale of that stock.
Rule 701 will also apply to stock options we granted before we became subject to
the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, along with the shares acquired
upon exercise of the options, including exercises after the date of this
prospectus. Shares of common stock we issued in reliance on Rule 701 are
restricted securities and,

                                        61
   66

subject to the contractual restrictions described above, persons other than
affiliates may sell those shares, subject only to the manner of sale provisions
of Rule 144. Persons who are affiliates under Rule 144 may sell those shares
without compliance with its minimum holding period requirements. All holders of
Rule 701 shares must wait until 90 days after the date of this prospectus before
selling their shares.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

     The holders of the shares of common stock outstanding before the closing of
this offering will be entitled to registration rights under a registration
rights agreement that we will enter into as part of the reorganization
transaction. These rights, which will relate to approximately 37.5 million
shares of common stock, assuming no exercise of the overallotment option, will
require us to use our reasonable efforts to register a holder's common stock (1)
at any time if requested by Harvest Partners, Inc. or (2) at any time after 18
months from the date of this offering if requested by Saw Mill Capital L.L.C. or
the holders of 25% of the common stock issued to holders of our senior
subordinated debt. If we propose to register a public offering of any of our
securities under the Securities Act, either for our own account after this
offering or for the account of other security holders exercising registration
rights at any time, the parties to the registration rights agreement will be
entitled to notice of such registration and will be entitled to include shares
of such common stock in the registration. The number of shares sold in the
public market could increase if these rights are exercised.

STOCK OPTIONS

     Following the completion of this offering, we intend to file a registration
statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act covering shares of common stock
issued or reserved for issuance under our stock option plan. The registration
statement will become effective automatically upon filing. As of March 31, 2001,
options to purchase 2,921,359 shares of common stock were issued and
outstanding, all of which        options will fully vest upon completion of this
offering. Accordingly, shares registered under the registration statement will,
subject to vesting provisions, the waiver of transfer restrictions in the option
plan and Rule 144 volume limitations applicable to our affiliates, be available
for sale in the open market immediately after the 180-day lock-up agreements
expire.

LOCK-UP AGREEMENTS

     Our company, all of our officers and directors and holders of substantially
all of our equity interests, including each selling stockholder, have entered
into contractual "lock-up" agreements providing that they will not offer, sell,
contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any
shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for any shares of our common stock, enter into a transaction that
would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement
that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of
ownership of our common stock whether any of these transactions are to be
settled by delivery of our common stock or other securities, in cash or
otherwise, or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or
disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement,
subject to certain exceptions, without, in each case, the prior written consent
of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation and Salomon Smith Barney Inc. for a
period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus. As a result of these
restrictions, notwithstanding possible earlier eligibility for sale under the
provisions of Rule 144, shares subject to lock-up agreements will not be salable
until the agreements expire.

                CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
                 FOR NON-UNITED STATES HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK

     The following is a general discussion of material U.S. federal tax
consequences relating to the ownership and disposition of common stock by a
Non-U.S. Holder. A "Non-U.S. Holder" is a foreign corporation, a nonresident
alien individual, a foreign partnership, any foreign estate or trust, or a
foreign branch of a U.S. person that furnishes an intermediary withholding
certificate identifying it as an intermediary of a foreign person or payee, as
these terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The
following discussion is based on (1) the Internal Revenue Code, (2) the U.S.
Treasury Regulations issued under the Internal Revenue Code and (3)
administrative and judicial interpretations of the Internal Revenue Code and
Treasury Regulations, each as in effect and available on the date of this
prospectus. The Internal Revenue Code, Treasury Regulations, and
interpretations, however, may change at any time, and any change could be
retroactive to the date of this prospectus.

     We do not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to a
holder of common stock. Except as specifically noted, this description addresses
only U.S. federal tax considerations to Non-U.S. Holders that are initial
purchasers of common stock and that will hold common stock as capital assets, as
defined in the Internal Revenue Code. We do not address any tax consequences to:

     - holders of common stock that may be subject to special tax treatment such
       as financial institutions, real estate investment trusts, tax-exempt
       organizations, regulated investment companies, insurance companies, and
       brokers and dealers or traders in securities or currencies;

     - persons who acquired common stock through an exercise of employee stock
       options or rights or otherwise as compensation;

     - persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar; and

     - persons that hold or will hold common stock as part of a position in a
       straddle or as part of a hedging or conversion transaction.

     Further, we do not address any state, local or foreign tax consequences
relating to the ownership and disposition of common stock.

     If a partnership holds common stock, the tax treatment of a partner will
generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the
partnership. Partners in a partnership holding common stock should consult with
their own tax advisors.

     PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS ARE ADVISED TO CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS
REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES RELATING TO THE OWNERSHIP AND
DISPOSITION OF THE COMMON STOCK AS WELL AS THE EFFECT OF ANY STATE, LOCAL OR
FOREIGN TAX LAWS.

DISTRIBUTIONS

     Generally, dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to
withholding tax at a 30% rate or whatever lower rate as may be specified by an
applicable tax treaty. A Non-U.S. Holder must file the appropriate forms to
obtain the benefit of an applicable tax treaty. In general, a Non-U.S. Holder
that is eligible for a reduced rate of United States withholding tax under an
income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by filing
appropriate claim for a refund with the United States Internal Revenue Service.

     Except as may be otherwise provided in an applicable tax treaty, a Non-U.S.
Holder will be taxed at ordinary federal income tax rates, on a net income
basis, on dividends that are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade
or business of that Non-U.S. Holder within the United States and these dividends
will not be subject to the withholding tax described above. If the Non-U.S.
Holder is a foreign corporation, it may also be subject to a branch profits tax
at a 30 percent rate unless it qualifies for a lower rate under an applicable
tax treaty. Non-U.S. Holders are required to file prescribed forms with the

                                        63
   68

withholding agent in order to establish exemption from withholding based on
income being effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business.

SALE OR EXCHANGE OF COMMON SHARES

     Generally, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax
on any gain realized on the sale or exchange of our common stock unless:

     - the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business conducted by
       the Non-U.S. Holder within the United States, in which case, the branch
       profits tax described above under "Distributions" may also apply if the
       holder is a foreign corporation;

     - the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States
       for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the sale or exchange and
       meets other necessary conditions;

     - the Non-U.S. Holder is subject to tax under the provisions of the U.S.
       federal tax law applicable to some U.S. expatriates; or

     - we are or have been during some periods a "U.S. real property holding
       corporation" for federal income tax purposes and, assuming the common
       stock is "regularly traded on an established securities market" for tax
       purposes, the Non-U.S. Holder held, directly or indirectly, at any time
       during the five-year period on the date of the disposition, or any
       shorter period that shares were held, more than 5% of our common stock.
       We believe that we will not be treated as a U.S. real property holding
       corporation.

FEDERAL ESTATE TAXES

     Unless an applicable estate tax treaty provides otherwise, common stock
that is held by an individual who at the time of death is not a citizen or
resident of the United States generally will be included in the individual's
gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax purposes and may be subject to estate
tax.

BACKUP WITHHOLDING TAX AND INFORMATION REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

     Under the United States information reporting rules, when a holder of
common stock receives dividends or proceeds from the sale of common stock, the
appropriate intermediary must report to the Internal Revenue Service and to the
holder the amount of the dividends or sale proceeds. Some holders, including all
corporations, are exempt from these rules.

     In addition, a nonexempt holder must provide the intermediary with certain
identifying information. If this information is not supplied, or if the
intermediary knows or has reason to know that it is not true, dividends or sale
proceeds are subject to "backup withholding" at a rate of 31%. Backup
withholding is not an additional tax, and the holder may use the tax as a credit
against the tax it otherwise owes.

     Generally, dividends paid to holders outside the United States that are
subject to the 30% or treaty-reduced rate of withholding tax will be exempt from
backup withholding tax. However, payments within the United States are subject
to both backup withholding and information reporting unless the holder certifies
under penalties of perjury to the payor or in the manner required as to its
non-United States person status or otherwise establishes an exemption.

                                        64
   69

     If any dividend payment is made to a beneficial owner of our common stock
by the foreign office of a foreign custodian, foreign nominee or other foreign
agent of a beneficial owner, or the foreign office of a foreign "broker", as
defined in applicable Treasury Regulations, pays the proceeds of the sale of our
common stock to the seller thereof, backup withholding and information reporting
will not apply, provided that the nominee, custodian, agent or broker (1)
derives less than 50% of its gross income for specific periods from the conduct
of trade or businesses in the United States, (2) is not a controlled foreign
corporation, and (3) is not a foreign partnership:

     - one or more of the partners of which, at any time during its tax year, is
       a U.S. person who, in the aggregate, holds more than 50% of the income or
       capital interest in the partnership; or

     - which, at any time during its tax year, is engaged in the conduct of
       trade or business in the United States.

     Moreover, any dividends on common stock so made by the foreign offices of
other custodians, nominees or agents, or the payment by the foreign office of
other brokers of the proceeds of the sale of common stock will not be subject to
a backup withholding, unless the payor has actual knowledge that the payee is a
United States person, but will be subject to information reporting unless the
custodian, nominee, agent or broker had documentary evidence in its records that
the beneficial owner is not a United States person and specific conditions are
met, or the beneficial owner otherwise establishes an exemption.

     Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning
information reporting and backup withholding.

     THE ABOVE DESCRIPTION IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF
ALL TAX CONSEQUENCES TO A NON-U.S. HOLDER RELATING TO THE OWNERSHIP AND
DISPOSITION OF COMMON STOCK. PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS OF COMMON STOCK ARE URGED TO
CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL TAX
LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS, AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES WHICH MAY
ARISE UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY FOREIGN, STATE, LOCAL OR OTHER TAXING JURISDICTION.

     Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation and Salomon Smith Barney Inc. are
acting as joint bookrunning managers of the offering and, together with Deutsche
Banc Alex. Brown Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc., are acting as
representatives of the underwriters named below. Under the terms and subject to
the conditions contained in an underwriting agreement dated                ,
2001 we have agreed to sell to the underwriters named below, the following
respective numbers of shares of common stock:

     The underwriting agreement provides that the underwriters are obligated to
purchase all the shares of common stock in the offering if any are purchased,
other than those shares covered by the over-allotment option described below.
The underwriting agreement also provides that if an underwriter defaults the
purchase commitments of non-defaulting underwriters may be increased or the
offering may be terminated.

     The selling stockholders have granted to the underwriters a 30-day option
to purchase up to 1,102,500 additional shares at the initial public offering
price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The option may be
exercised only to cover any over-allotments of common stock.

     The underwriters propose to offer the shares of common stock initially at
the public offering price on the cover page of this prospectus and to selling
group members at that price less a selling concession of $     per share. The
underwriters and selling group members may allow a discount of $     per share
on sales to other broker/dealers. After the initial public offering, the
representatives may change the public offering price and concession and discount
to broker/dealers.

     The following table summarizes the compensation and estimated expenses we
will pay:

Total......................


     We have agreed that we will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or
otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act relating
to, any shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of our common stock, or publicly
disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge, disposition or filing,
subject to certain exceptions, without the prior written consent of Credit
Suisse First Boston Corporation and Salomon Smith Barney Inc. for a period of
180 days after the date of this prospectus.

     Our officers and directors and holders of substantially all of our equity
securities, including each selling stockholder, have agreed that they will not
offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or
indirectly, any shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of our common stock, enter into a
transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or
other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic

                                        66
   71

consequences of ownership of our common stock whether any of these transactions
are to be settled by delivery of our common stock or other securities, in cash
or otherwise, or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge
or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other
arrangement, subject to certain exceptions, without, in each case, the prior
written consent of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation and Salomon Smith
Barney Inc. for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus.

     At our request, the underwriters have reserved up to 5% of the shares of
common stock for sale at the initial public offering price to persons who are
our employees, or who are otherwise associated with us, through a directed share
program. The number of shares of common stock available for sale to the general
public will be reduced by the number of directed shares purchased by
participants in the program. Any directed shares not purchased will be offered
by the underwriters to the general public on the same basis as all other shares
of common stock offered.

     We and the selling stockholders have agreed to indemnify the underwriters
against certain liabilities and expenses, including liabilities under the
Securities Act. Additionally, we have agreed to indemnify the underwriters
against certain liabilities and expenses in connection with the sales of the
directed shares.

     We have applied to list our shares of common stock on the New York Stock
Exchange under the symbol "GEG." The underwriters have undertaken to sell shares
of common stock to a minimum of 2,000 beneficial owners in lots of 100 or more
shares to meet the New York Stock Exchange distribution requirements for
trading.

     Prior to this offering there has been no public market for our common
stock. Consequently, the initial public offering price for the shares will be
determined by negotiations between us and the representatives. Among the factors
to be considered in determining the initial public offering price is our record
of operations, our current financial condition, our future prospects, our
markets, the economic conditions in and future prospects for the industry in
which we compete, our management, and currently prevailing general conditions in
the equity securities markets, including current market valuations of publicly
traded companies we consider comparable to us. There can be no assurance,
however, that the price at which our shares will sell in the public market after
this offering will not be lower than the price at which our shares are sold by
the underwriters or that an active trading market in our common stock will
develop and continue after this offering.

     In connection with this offering the underwriters may engage in stabilizing
transactions, over-allotment transactions, syndicate covering transactions and
penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act.

     - Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security
       so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum.

     - Over-allotment involves sales by the underwriters of shares in excess of
       the number of shares the underwriters are obligated to purchase, which
       creates a syndicated short position. The short position may be either a
       covered short position or a naked short position. In a covered short
       position, the number of shares over-allotted by the underwriters is not
       greater than the number of shares that they may purchase in the
       over-allotment option. In a naked short position, the number of shares
       involved is greater than the number of shares in the over-allotment
       option. The underwriters may close out any short position by either
       exercising their over-allotment option and/or purchasing shares in the
       open market.

     - Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the common stock in
       the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to
       cover syndicate short positions. In determining the source of shares to
       close out the short position, the underwriters will consider, among other
       things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as
       compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the
       over-allotment option. If the underwriters sell more shares than could be
       covered by the over-allotment option, a naked short position, the
       position can only be closed out by buying shares in the open market. A
       naked short position is more likely to be created
                                        67
   72

if the underwriters are concerned that there could be downward pressure on the
price of the shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect
investors who purchase in the offering.

     - Penalty bids permit the representatives to reclaim a selling concession
       from a syndicate member when the common stock originally sold by the
       syndicate member is purchased in a stabilizing or syndicate covering
       transaction to cover syndicate short positions.

These stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids
may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common
stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common
stock. As a result the price of our common stock may be higher than the price
that might otherwise exist in the open market. These transactions may be
effected on The New York Stock Exchange or otherwise and, if commenced, may be
discontinued at any time.

     A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the web sites
maintained by one or more of the underwriters participating in this offering.
The representatives may agree to allocate a number of shares to underwriters for
sale to their online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be
allocated by the underwriters that will make internet distributions on the same
basis as other allocations. Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation may effect an
on-line distribution through its affiliate, CSFBdirect Inc., an on-line broker
dealer, as a selling group member.


     The representatives have performed investment banking and advisory services
for us from time to time for which they have received customary fees and
expenses. The representatives may, from time to time, engage in transactions
with and perform services for us in the ordinary course of their business.
Giving effect to the reorganization transaction as described under "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- The
Reorganization Transaction" and assuming no exercise of the over-allotment
option, affiliates of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation will own
approximately 2,709,228 shares of our common stock, or approximately 6.0% of the
outstanding shares following this offering and affiliates of Deutsche Banc Alex.
Brown Inc. will own approximately 1,354,695 shares of our common stock, or
approximately 3.0% of the outstanding shares following this offering. Several
banks affiliated with the underwriters participating in this offering are
lenders under our senior credit facility and our senior subordinated loan
agreement. Affiliates of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation are lenders and
syndication agent under our existing senior credit facility and our senior
subordinated loan agreement and will receive a portion of the proceeds of this
offering from the repayment of those facilities. In addition, an affiliate of
Deutsche Banc Alex. Brown Inc. is a lender and administrative agent under our
existing senior credit facility and will receive a portion of the proceeds of
this offering from the repayment of that facility. We are currently in
compliance with the terms of the indebtedness owed by us to banks affiliated
with the underwriters. The decision of the underwriters to distribute our common
stock was made independently of the banks affiliated with those underwriters.
These banks had no involvement in determining whether or when we would sell our
common stock or the terms of the offering.


     Because affiliates of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation and Deutsche
Banc Alex. Brown Inc. hold substantial amounts of our debt and will receive more
than 10% of the net proceeds of the offering through repayment of this debt,
those underwriters may be deemed to have a "conflict of interest" with us under
Rule 2710(c)(8) of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. When a
NASD member with a conflict of interest participates as an underwriter in an
initial public offering, Rule 2720 of the NASD requires that the initial public
offering price may be no higher than that recommended by a "qualified
independent underwriter," as defined by NASD. In accordance with this rule,
Salomon Smith Barney Inc. has assumed the responsibilities of acting as a
qualified independent underwriter. In its role as a qualified independent
underwriter, Salomon Smith Barney Inc. has performed a due diligence
investigation and participated in the preparation of the registration statement
of which this prospectus is a part. Salomon Smith Barney Inc. will not receive
any additional fees for serving as qualified independent underwriter in
connection with this offering. We have agreed to indemnify Salomon Smith Barney
Inc. against liabilities incurred in connection with acting as a qualified
independent underwriter, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To GEEG Holdings, L.L.C.:

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C. (a Delaware limited liability company) and Subsidiaries as of
December 25, 1999 and December 30, 2000, and the related consolidated statements
of income (loss), comprehensive income (loss), members' equity (deficit) and
cash flows for the period from June 5, 1998 (inception) through December 26,
1998 and for each of the two years in the period ended December 30, 2000. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes 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, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C. and Subsidiaries as of December 25, 1999 and December 30, 2000,
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from
June 5, 1998 (inception) through December 26, 1998 and for each of the two years
in the period ended December 30, 2000 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States.

1.  BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

     GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. and Subsidiaries (the Company or GEEG) designs,
engineers and manufactures heat recovery and auxiliary power equipment. The
Company's corporate headquarters are located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with operating
facilities in Plymouth, Minnesota; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Fort Smith, Arkansas;
Auburn, Massachusetts; Clinton, South Carolina; Monterrey, Mexico; and Heerlen,
Netherlands.

     On May 13, 1998, the Company was formed for the purpose of purchasing the
net assets of the Power Generation Division of Jason Incorporated. On June 5,
1998 (inception), the Company purchased the net assets for $48.9 million in
cash. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting
and, accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the acquired assets and
assumed liabilities based on their respective fair values. The purchase price
and related acquisition costs exceeded the fair values assigned to tangible and
identifiable intangible assets and liabilities by approximately $32.5 million,
which was assigned to goodwill. GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. had no operations from May
13, 1998 to June 5, 1998 and, as such, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements reflect the Company's inception date as June 5, 1998.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
GEEG Holdings L.L.C. and its wholly owned subsidiaries: Deltak, L.L.C. (Deltak);
Deltak Construction Services, Inc.; Deltak Europe -- BV; Braden Manufacturing,
L.L.C. (Braden); Braden Construction Services, Inc.; Braden Europe -- BV; Braden
Manufacturing S.A. de C.V.; and Consolidated Fabricators, Inc. (CFI). All
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fiscal Year End

     The Company uses a 52-/53-week fiscal year ending on the last Saturday in
December. For the purposes of these notes to the consolidated financial
statements, the period from June 5, 1998 (inception) through December 26, 1998
and the fiscal years ended December 25, 1999 and December 30, 2000 are referred
to as 1998 (stub period), 1999 and 2000, respectively. The 1998 (stub period)
includes 29 weeks while 1999 and 2000 include 52 and 53 weeks, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments which are convertible
into known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less
to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of investments in
commercial paper.

Inventories

     Inventories primarily consist of raw materials and are stated at the lower
of first-in, first-out cost or market.

Property, Plant and Equipment

     Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method for
financial reporting purposes over the estimated useful lives.

     Depreciation expense for 1998 (stub period), 1999 and 2000 was $0.9
million, $2.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively. Costs of significant
additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When an asset is sold or
otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed
from the respective accounts and the gain or loss on disposition is reflected in
earnings. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when incurred.

Goodwill

     Goodwill represents the costs of acquisitions in excess of the fair value
of the net assets acquired and is amortized using the straight-line method over
30 years. Accumulated amortization as of December 25, 1999 and December 30, 2000
was $1.6 million and $3.0 million, respectively.

Deferred Financing Costs

     Deferred financing costs are amortized over the terms of the related debt
facilities. Total interest expense associated with the amortization of these
costs was $0.2 million, $0.3 million and $0.6 million in 1998 (stub period),
1999 and 2000, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets

     Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and intangible assets,
are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through the
estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the use of these assets. When any
such impairment exists, the related assets will be written down to fair value.

Warranty Costs

     The Company typically warrants labor and fabrication for 12 to 18 months
after shipment. Estimated costs of warranty repairs are accrued and included on
the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as accrued warranty.

Income Taxes

     The Company is organized as a limited liability company (LLC) whereby all
tax liabilities are the responsibility of individual investors. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities become the responsibility of the Company if and when the
LLC structure is converted to a C-Corporation. Certain of the Company's

subsidiaries are corporations responsible for federal, state and foreign taxes.
For those entities, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not significant.

Revenue Recognition

     GEEG has two segments: Heat Recovery Equipment and Auxiliary Power
Equipment. Heat Recovery Equipment products include heat recovery steam
generators, heat recovery boilers, and other types of waste heat products.
Auxiliary Power Equipment products include exhaust and inlet systems, filter
houses, retrofit activity, diverter dampers, turbine enclosures and other power
equipment.

     Revenues for the Company's Heat Recovery Equipment segment are recognized
on the percentage-of-completion method based on the percentage of actual hours
incurred to date in relation to total estimated hours (internal and
subcontractor) for each contract. Changes in job performance, job conditions,
estimated profitability and final contract settlements may result in revisions
to costs and income, and the effects of such revisions are recognized in the
period that the revisions are determined. Revenues for the Company's Auxiliary
Power Equipment segment are recognized on the completed-contract method due to
the short-term nature of their product production period. The Company recognizes
various types of service revenues as the services are provided. Service revenues
are not significant in any period presented.

Major Customers

     The Company has certain customers that represent more than 10 percent of
consolidated revenues for 1998 (stub period), 1999 and 2000 as follows:



                                                               1998

Customer C...............................................       --           15%     --
Customer D...............................................       --           14%     --
Customer E...............................................       --           --      22%


     As of December 25, 1999, customer A made up approximately 29 percent of the
consolidated accounts receivable balance. As of December 30, 2000, customer A
and customer B made up 15 percent and 14 percent, respectively, of the
consolidated accounts receivable balance.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

     The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term debt approximates fair value
due to the short term nature of these instruments.

     The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated based on the
discounted value of the future cash flows expected to be paid on the loans. The
discount rate used to estimate the fair value of the loans is the rate currently
available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities. The fair
value at December 25, 1999 and December 30, 2000 approximated the carrying
value.

Derivative Financial Instruments

     The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," (SFAS 133),
effective December 31, 2000. This standard establishes accounting and reporting
standards requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded on the balance
sheet as either an asset or a liability measured at fair value. SFAS 133
requires that changes in a derivative's fair value be recognized currently in
earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting
for qualifying hedges allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related
results on the hedged item in the income statement and requires that a company
formally document, designate

                     GEEG HOLDINGS, L.L.C. AND SUBSIDIARIES

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
           1998 (STUB PERIOD), 1999, 2000, AND THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
           MARCH 25, 2000 (UNAUDITED) AND MARCH 31, 2001 (UNAUDITED)

and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting
treatment. The impact of adopting SFAS 133 was not material.

     Derivative financial instruments are used by the Company in the management
of its foreign currency exchange and interest rate exposures. Amounts to be paid
or received under agreements are accrued and recognized over the life of the
agreements. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance
by the other parties to the agreements. However, the Company does not anticipate
nonperformance by its counterparties.

     On December 29, 2000, the Company entered into a zero-cost interest rate
collar whereby it holds an 8% interest rate cap and has written a 5.36% interest
rate floor. The Company has designated the interest rate collar as a hedge of
the variability of a portion of its floating-rate interest payments attributable
to changes in market interest rates. As such, the Company will use the interest
rate collar to place both a minimum and maximum limit on the total interest
payments the Company must pay on approximately $77.1 million of its floating
rate debt. Under SFAS 133, the Company will recognize the fair value of both the
floor and the cap in its balance sheet. Additionally, the Company will mark the
floor and cap to fair value through other comprehensive income and then
recognize such fluctuations in earnings in the same period as the earnings
effect of the variable rate debt.

     The collar will be settled at three-month intervals through December 31,
2003. Depending on the movement in interest rates, the Company will have the
right to or the obligation for a series of conditional receivables or payables.
The Company will account for the interest collar as a net written option and as
such will not be subject to the effectiveness tests of SFAS 133.

     As the interest rate collar was entered into on December 29, 2000, there
were no increases or decreases in fair value as of December 30, 2000. At
December 25, 1999, the Company had interest rate collars for approximately $15.0
million of its floating rate debt. The fair value of the 1999 interest rate
collar was not significant.

     Notional amounts outstanding under foreign currency option agreements at
December 30, 2000, were $3.6 million. No amounts were outstanding under such
contracts at December 25, 1999. The fair values of the option agreements were
not significant as of December 30, 2000.

Foreign Currency

     Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign operations are translated
at year-end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses are translated at average
exchange rates prevailing during the period. Translation adjustments are
recorded as a separate component of members' equity and other comprehensive
income on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Gains and losses
from foreign currency transactions are included in earnings. Such gains and
losses have not been significant in any period.

Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States 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 revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. The most significant estimates relate to projected
total costs of projects, including warranty and contingency costs, and the
percentage of completion on contract accounting. Ultimate results could differ
from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

     In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff released
Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements." The adoption of this statement in the fourth quarter of 2000 did
not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

Interim Financial Statements

     The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2001 and the related
consolidated statements of income (loss), comprehensive income (loss) and cash
flows for the three months ended March 25, 2000 and March 31, 2001, and the
consolidated statement of members' equity (deficit) for the three months ended
March 31, 2001 are unaudited. Such unaudited statements have been prepared on
the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the
opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the results for
the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the unaudited three
months ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the entire 2001 fiscal year.

Pro Forma Information (Unaudited)

     The unaudited pro forma March 31, 2001 balance sheet amounts give effect to
a proposed reorganization from a limited liability company to a C-Corporation
and the recording of deferred taxes due to the proposed change in tax status.

     The unaudited pro forma income tax expense (benefit) shown on the
consolidated statements of income (loss) is presented assuming the Company had
been a C-Corporation during 1998 (stub period), 1999, 2000, and during the three
months ended March 25, 2000 and March 31, 2001, using effective tax rates of 35
percent for 1998 (stub period) and 39 percent for all other periods presented.

3.  RECAPITALIZATION TRANSACTION

     On August 1, 2000, the Company consummated a recapitalization transaction
(the Recapitalization) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger with GEEG
Acquisition Holdings Corp., GEEG Acquisition Holdings, L.L.C. and GEEG
Acquisition, L.L.C. (Merger Sub) (collectively, the Control Group). In
conjunction with the Recapitalization, the following occurred:

     - Merger Sub was merged with and into the Company, with the Company
       continuing as the surviving entity.

     - The Company borrowed $140 million in the form of senior term loans and
       $67.5 million in the form of a senior subordinated loan. In connection
       with the senior subordinated borrowings, the Company issued 77,075 new
       common units and 69,368 new preferred units to the lenders and recorded
       the $7.7 million fair value of the units as debt discount. The Company
       also paid $8.2 million for deferred financing costs.

     - The Company realized proceeds of $76.1 million from the sale of new
       common and preferred units. The proceeds were recorded net of $5.9
       million of expenses.

     - The Company converted prior common units owned by certain investors into
       183,600 of new preferred units and 204,000 of new common units.

           MARCH 25, 2000 (UNAUDITED) AND MARCH 31, 2001 (UNAUDITED)

     - The Company redeemed the remaining prior common units and all outstanding
       warrants for $232.8 million.

     - The Company repaid the then outstanding $15.0 million on a senior
       subordinated loan and recorded a $1.5 million extraordinary loss
       associated with the write-off of associated unamortized deferred
       financing costs.

     - The Company cancelled all common unit options issued and outstanding
       immediately prior to the Recapitalization for $38.1 million, which has
       been recorded as a corresponding recapitalization charge on the
       accompanying consolidated statement of income (loss).

     After completion of the Recapitalization, continuing investors held
approximately 18.5 percent of the voting control of the Company. As such, the
Company was not required to push-down the Control Group purchase accounting to
the Company.

     As a part of the Recapitalization and as noted above, the prior common
units were converted into new preferred and common units using an approximate 1
to 260 conversion ratio. As a result of the conversion, all prior period common
unit related amounts included in these footnotes and on the accompanying
consolidated financial statements have been restated based on this conversion
ratio.

4.  ACQUISITIONS

     On October 31, 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of
CFI Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries. CFI makes turbine enclosures for the
auxiliary power equipment industry. CFI sales are now included as turbine
enclosure product revenue within the Company's Auxiliary Power Equipment
segment. Total purchase consideration of $25.2 million, including contingent
consideration of $2.5 million earned in 2000, consisted of $17.7 million of
cash, $5.5 million of promissory notes and $2.0 million in equity interests in
the Company. Approximately $3.2 million of the cash consideration has been
reserved in escrow. To finance a portion of the purchase, the Company utilized
the Term C loan (see note 7). The acquisition was accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the purchase price was allocated
to the net assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. This treatment
resulted in approximately $15.4 million of cost in excess of the fair value of
net identifiable assets acquired, which has been recorded as goodwill in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. The goodwill is being amortized
on a straight-line basis over 30 years.

     The results of operations of CFI from November 1, 2000 to December 30, 2000
have been included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income (loss).
Pro forma consolidated statements of income (loss) as if the acquisition had
taken place as of December 26, 1998 are shown below:

5.  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     Certain investors have historically provided consultation services to the
Company, for which the Company is charged management fees. Total expenses under
these arrangements were $0.1 million, $0.3 million and $0.7 million for 1998
(stub period), 1999 and 2000, respectively. The Company is contractually
committed to payments of management fees totaling $1.25 million per year through
2003.

6.  UNCOMPLETED CONTRACTS

     The Heat Recovery Equipment segment enters into contracts that allow for
periodic billings over the contract term. At any point in time each project
under construction could have either costs and estimated earnings in excess of
billings or billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings. The Auxiliary
Power Equipment segment typically bills customers only at the completion of
contracts. No earnings are recognized until contract completion.

     Costs, earnings and billings related to uncompleted contracts consist of
the following:

     Substantially all of the Company's assets have been pledged as collateral
for the senior financing arrangements.

     The Company has a revolving credit facility which allows for borrowings of
up to $55.0 million. Borrowings under the line bear interest at a floating rate
relative to a base rate or LIBOR, as defined, and the Company pays an unused
facility fee of 0.5 percent. As of December 30, 2000, no amounts were
outstanding under the revolver.

     The Company uses letters of credit in its normal course of business.
Letters of credit totaling $23.0 million were issued and outstanding as of
December 30, 2000. While no amounts had been drawn upon these letters of credit,
the letters of credit outstanding reduces amounts available under the revolver.

     The above-mentioned agreements contain, among other restrictions, various
covenants including maximum leverage and capital expenditures levels and minimum
interest coverage ratios and EBITDA levels. As of December 30, 2000, the Company
was in compliance with all such covenants.

8.  MEMBERS' EQUITY

Preferred Units

     The Company has authorized and issued 1,008,968 current preferred units
with a $100 par value. The current preferred units are not convertible and have
no voting rights. Current preferred unit members are entitled to an eight
percent annual preferred dividend computed on the members' aggregate preferred
equity balance. Current preferred units have liquidation preference to the
common units in the event of a liquidation of the Company and have priority on
all equity distributions.

     The Board of Directors may, at its sole option, redeem all or any part of
the current preferred units at a price equal to their aggregate preferred
capital contribution plus accrued but not yet paid preferred dividends.

     On July 31, 1999, the Company redeemed all outstanding prior preferred
units issued. The Company had authorized 100,000 prior preferred units that
included an eight percent annual preferred dividend, as defined. The units were
not convertible to common units and had no voting rights.

Common Units

     The Company has authorized and issued 1,122,280 current common units with a
$10 par value. Current common units are entitled to one vote.

     Prior to the Recapitalization (Note 3), the Company had authorized
52,106,800, 6,513,350 and 2,709,554 of Class A, B and Junior units,
respectively. Prior Class A and Junior units had one vote per unit. Class B
units were nonvoting. All previously outstanding prior common units were
repurchased or converted as part of the Recapitalization discussed in Note 3.

Option Plans

     In August 2000, the Company adopted the 2000 Option Plan (the 2000 Plan).
The 2000 Plan provides for granting of up to 122,342 options to purchase common
units of the Company. Forty percent of the common units available for grant
under the 2000 Plan vest over four years and 60 percent of the common units
available for grant under the 2000 Plan vest over the earlier of nine years or
when certain performance vesting criteria are met.

     As a part of the Recapitalization, all options outstanding under a previous
option plan (whether or not exercisable or vested) were cancelled and holders of
the cancelled options were paid an amount equal to the options' fair value,
resulting in a recapitalization charge of $38.1 million.

     Prior to October 31, 2000, the Company granted 98,499 options at $10 per
common unit, which equaled fair value at the date of grant. On October 31, 2000,
the Company granted 5,390 options at $10 per common unit. At the date of grant,
the deemed fair value of the Company's common units was higher than the $10
exercise price resulting in approximately $745,000 of unearned compensation
which has been recorded on a net basis in undistributed earnings (deficit) along
with a corresponding $745,000 increase in undistributed earnings (deficit) due
to the effect of the October 31, 2000 option grant. Compensation expense in 2000
related to the October 31, 2000 option grant totaled approximately $20,000.

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123), requires the measurement of the fair value
of options to be included in the statement of operations or disclosed in the
notes to financial statements. The Company elected the disclosure-only
alternative under SFAS 123.

     In determining compensation cost pursuant to SFAS 123, the fair value of
each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for
grants during 1998 (stub period), 1999 and 2000:



                                                    1998

9.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Employment Agreements

     The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain members of
management which expire on July 31, 2002, with automatic one-year renewal
periods at expiration dates. The agreements provide for, among other things,
compensation, benefits and severance payments.

Litigation

     The Company is involved in legal actions which arise in the ordinary course
of its business. Although the outcomes of any such legal actions cannot be
predicted, in the opinion of management, the resolution of any currently pending
or threatened actions will not have a material adverse effect upon the
consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Leases

     The Company leases machinery, transportation equipment and office,
warehouse and manufacturing facilities, which are noncancelable and expire at
various dates. Total rental expense for all operating leases for 1998 (stub
period), 1999 and 2000 was $0.9 million, $1.5 million and $2.5 million,
respectively.

     Future minimum annual lease payments under these noncancellable operating
leases at December 30, 2000 are as follows (in thousands):

Employee Benefit Plans

     Deltak maintains a profit-sharing plan for employees. Deltak's expense for
this plan totaled $1.0 million, $1.2 million and $1.3 million for 1998 (stub
period), 1999 and 2000, respectively. In addition to the Deltak profit-sharing
plan, GEEG maintains a 401(k) plan covering substantially all of Deltak and
Braden's employees. Expense for the GEEG 401(k) plan for 1998 (stub period),
1999 and 2000 was $0.5 million, $0.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

     Braden participates in a defined benefit multi-employer union pension fund
covering all union employees. As required by labor contracts, Braden made
contributions totaling $0.1 million, $0.1 million and $0.2 million for 1998
(stub period), 1999 and 2000, respectively. These contributions are determined
in accordance with the provisions of negotiated labor contracts and generally
are based on the number of hours worked. Braden may be liable for its share of
unfunded vested benefits, if any, related to the union pension fund. Information
from the union pension fund's administrators indicates there are no unfunded
vested benefits.

11.  SEGMENT INFORMATION

     The "management approach" called for by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information" (SFAS 131) has been used by GEEG management to present the segment
information which follows. GEEG considered the way its management team organizes
its operations for making operating decisions and assessing performance and
considered which components of its enterprise have discrete financial
information available. Management makes decisions using a product group focus
and its analysis resulted in two operating segments, Heat Recovery Equipment and
Auxiliary Power Equipment. The Company evaluates performance based on net income
or loss not including certain items as noted below.

     Accounting policies used by the segments are the same as those described in
Note 2. Intersegment sales were not significant. Corporate assets consist
primarily of cash and debt issuance costs. Capital expenditures do not include
amounts arising from the acquisition of businesses. Expenses associated with the
Recapitalization (see Note 3) have not been allocated. Interest income has not
been allocated as cash management activities are handled at a corporate level.

     The following table presents information about segment income (loss) and
assets:

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of income and
comprehensive income, equity and cash flows of Jason Incorporated Power

the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

     We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the results of operations and cash flows of Jason

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

     Jason Incorporated Power Generation Division (the Company), is the
predecessor entity to GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. (GEEG). The Company was acquired by
GEEG on June 5, 1998. Prior to the acquisition by GEEG, the Company was a
division of its parent company, Jason Incorporated. The Company designs,
engineers and manufactures heat recovery and auxiliary power equipment. The
Company's corporate headquarters are located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with operating
facilities in Plymouth, Minnesota; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Fort Smith, Arkansas; and
Heerlen, Netherlands. The Company uses a 52-/53-week fiscal year ending on the
last Saturday in December.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company, including those of Deltak, L.L.C. (Deltak); Deltak Construction
Services, Inc.; Braden Manufacturing, L.L.C. (Braden); Braden Construction
Services, Inc.; and Braden Europe -- BV. Significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments which are convertible
into known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less
to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of investments in
commercial paper. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is based on quoted
market prices. The fair value at June 4, 1998 approximated the carrying value.

Due from Parent

     The Company's parent company, Jason Incorporated, receives the cash
generated from the operations of the business and, in return, pays all
operating, selling, general and administrative expenses on the Company's behalf.
As of June 4, 1998, the Company's cash provided to Jason Incorporated exceeded
expenses paid by Jason Incorporated by approximately $69.8 million.

Inventories

     Inventories primarily consist of raw materials and are stated at the lower
of first-in, first-out cost or market.

Property, Plant and Equipment

     Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method for financial
reporting purposes over the estimated useful lives. Depreciation expense for the
period from December 27, 1997 through June 4, 1998 was $0.7 million.

Goodwill

     Goodwill is being amortized over an estimated useful life of 30 years.
Amortization expense for the period from December 27, 1997 through June 4, 1998
was $0.8 million.

Warranty Costs

     The Company typically warrants labor and fabrication for 12 to 18 months
after shipment. Estimated costs of warranty repairs are accrued for each project
and adjusted when specific claims are made or when warranty periods expire.

Income Taxes

     For U.S. tax purposes, the Company is reflected as a member of Jason
Incorporated's consolidated group and is included in Jason Incorporated's
consolidated federal income tax return. However, the accompanying tax provision
included in the financial statements has been prepared on a separate return
basis.

     The components of the provision for income taxes are as follows (in
thousands):




                                                           
Current taxes payable
  Federal...................................................  $1,108
  State.....................................................     171
  Foreign...................................................     175
Deferred....................................................    (458)
                                                              ------
          Total provision...................................  $  996
                                                              ======


     A reconciliation of the statutory tax rate to the Company's effective tax
rate is as follows:




                                                           
Federal statutory rate......................................   34%
State income taxes, net of federal benefit..................    5
Other.......................................................    4
                                                              ---
          Effective income tax rate.........................   43%
                                                              ===


Revenue Recognition

     The Company recognizes revenues for projects under long-term contracts on
the percentage-of-completion method based on the percentage of actual hours
incurred to date in relation to total estimated hours (internal and
subcontractor) for each contract. Changes in job performance, job conditions,
estimated profitability and final contract settlements may result in revisions
to costs and income, and the effects of such revisions are recognized in the
period the revisions are determined. The Company recognizes revenues for
projects which are not under long-term contracts on the completed-contract
method due to the short-term nature of the product production period. The
Company recognizes service revenue as services are provided. Service revenues
were not significant for the period from December 27, 1997 to June 4, 1998.

Customer Sales

     For the period from December 27, 1997 through June 4, 1998, two customers
in aggregate accounted for approximately 26 percent of consolidated revenues.

Foreign Currency

     Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign operations are translated
at year-end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses are translated at average
exchange rates prevailing during the period. Translation adjustments are
recorded as a separate component of equity and other comprehensive income in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. Gains and losses from foreign
currency transactions are included in earnings. Such gains and losses were not
significant during the period.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States 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 revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. The most significant estimates relate to projected
total costs of projects, including warranty and contingency costs, and the
percentage of completion on contract accounting. Ultimate results could differ
from those estimates.

3. PARENT COMPANY ALLOCATIONS

     The Company's financial statements reflect all of its costs of doing
business. These costs include certain expenses that have been incurred by the
parent on the Company's behalf, such as incentive compensation, accounting and
legal services, depreciation and interest. Incentive compensation expenses were
allocated specifically by employee of the Company. All other expenses were
allocated to all segments of the parent company in a manner which management
believes to be a reasonable approximation of actual costs that would have been
incurred if the Company were a stand alone entity. Interest expense of $0.4
million was allocated to the Company based upon capital employed.

4. EQUITY

     As part of its purchase, Jason Incorporated capitalized the Company with an
investment of $50.0 million in the Jason Incorporated Power Generation Division.
As of June 4, 1998, no other equity instruments have been issued.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

     The Company is involved in legal actions which arise in the ordinary course
of its business. Although the outcomes of any such legal actions cannot be
predicted, in the opinion of management, the resolution of any currently pending
or threatened actions will not have a material adverse effect upon the
consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Leases

     The Company leases machinery, transportation equipment, and office,
warehouse and manufacturing facilities which are noncancelable and expire at
various dates. Total rental expense for all operating leases for the period from
December 27, 1997 through June 4, 1998 was $0.8 million.

     Future minimum annual lease payments under these noncancellable operating
leases at June 4, 1998 are as follows (in thousands):


                                                             
1998........................................................    $  745

Employee Benefit Plans

     Deltak maintains a profit-sharing plan for employees. Expenses for this
plan recorded by Deltak totaled $0.5 million for the period from December 27,
1997 through June 4, 1998. In addition to the Deltak profit-sharing plan, Deltak
and Braden each participate in the parent company's 401(k) plan covering
substantially all of Deltak and Braden's employees. Expense for the parent
company's 401(k) plan for the period from December 27, 1997 through June 4, 1998
was $0.1 million.

     Braden participates in a defined benefit multi-employer union pension fund
covering all union employees. As required by labor contracts, Braden made
contributions totaling $0.1 million for the period from December 27, 1997
through June 4, 1998. These contributions are determined in accordance with the
provisions of negotiated labor contracts and generally are based on the number
of hours worked. Braden may be liable for its share of unfunded vested benefits,
if any, related to the union pension fund. Information from the union pension
fund's administrators indicates there are no unfunded vested benefits.

6. SEGMENT INFORMATION

     The "management approach" called for by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information" (SFAS 131) has been used by Company management to present the
segment information which follows. The Company considered the way its management
team organizes its operations for making operating decisions and assessing
performance and considered which components of its enterprise have discrete
financial information available. Management makes decisions using a product
group focus and its analysis resulted in two operating segments, Heat Recovery
Equipment and Auxiliary Power Equipment. The Company evaluates performance based
on net income or loss not including certain nonrecurring items.

     Accounting policies used by the segments are the same as those described in
Note 2. Intersegment sales were not significant. Capital expenditures do not
include amounts arising from the acquisition of businesses. Interest expense has
been allocated consistent with the policies described in Note 3.

     The following table presents information about segment income and assets
for the period from December 27, 1997 through June 4, 1998:

ITEM 14.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

     The information below briefly outlines the provisions of Sections 102(b)(7)
and 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, Article IX of
our Certificate of Incorporation and Article IV of our By-Laws. For more

and By-Laws that we filed with the SEC.

ELIMINATION OF LIABILITY

     Section 102(b)(7) of Delaware's corporation law gives each Delaware
corporation the power to eliminate or limit its directors' personal liability to

fiduciary duty as a director, except:

     - for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or
       its stockholders;

     - for acts or omissions not in good faith, or which involve intentional
       misconduct or a knowing violation of the law;

     - under Section 174 of Delaware's corporation law (providing for liability
       of directors for the unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock
       purchases or redemptions); or

       benefit.

personal liability of our directors to the fullest extent permitted by Section
102(b)(7) of Delaware's corporation law.

INDEMNIFICATION

     Section 145 of Delaware's corporation law grants each Delaware corporation
the power to indemnify its directors and officers against liability for certain

of or participant in another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise.

     As permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of Delaware's corporation law, Article IX

not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for
breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except (i) for any breach of the
director's duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (ii) for act or omissions
not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation
of the law, (iii) under Section 174 of Delaware's corporation law or (iv) for
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Article IX also provides that we will indemnify officers, directors, employees
and agents of our company to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware's
corporation law and advance expenses incurred by such directors, officers,
employees and agents in relation to any action, suit or proceeding.

ITEM 15.  RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.

     During the past three years, we have issued the securities set forth below
which were not registered under the Securities Act. Where appropriate, the
issuances described below relate to membership units issued by GEEG Holdings,
L.L.C., our predecessor, and have not been adjusted for the reorganization
transaction.

     In connection with its initial capitalization and its acquisition of the
power generation division of Jason Incorporated, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. issued
preferred units and senior and junior common units to SMC Power Holdings LLC, WB
Holding Corp., Paribas Principal Incorporated, Indosuez GEEG Partners and
certain members of its management. GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. received $9.0 million
in exchange for 90,000 preferred units, $1.18 million in exchange for 71,253.34
senior common units and $10,400 in exchange for 10,400 junior units. All of the
above sales of equity interests were made in reliance on the exemption from
registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as transactions not
involving a public offering. The recipients of the securities were accredited
investors.

     In addition, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. issued warrants to purchase 3,133.33
senior units to Credit Agricole Indosuez and warrants to purchase 5,013.33
senior units to Paribas Capital Funding in connection with its 1998 Senior
Subordinated Loan Agreement, which was paid off as part of the August 2000
recapitalization. The issuance of the warrants was made in reliance on the
exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as
transactions not involving a public offering. The recipients of the securities
were accredited investors.

     The GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. preferred units outstanding prior to the August
2000 recapitalization were redeemed for $9.93 million in 1999.

     GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. repurchased certain of its outstanding senior and
junior common units, as well as all of its warrants, in connection with its
August 2000 recapitalization. The remaining common units were retained and
converted into 183,600 preferred units and 204,000.0 common units, having an
aggregate value of $18.4 million and $2.0 million respectively after the August
2000 recapitalization. These transactions were made in reliance on the exemption
from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as transactions not
involving a public offering. The recipients of the securities were accredited
investors.

     Also in connection with the August 2000 recapitalization, GEEG Holdings,
L.L.C. issued 558,517.74 preferred units to GEEG Acquisition Holdings Corp. and
248,850.00 preferred units to GEEG Acquisition Holdings L.L.C. In addition, GEEG
Holdings, L.L.C. also issued 620,575.3 class A common units to GEEG Acquisition
Holdings Corp. and 276,500.0 class A common units to GEEG Acquisition Holdings
L.L.C. All of the above issuances of equity interests were made in reliance on
the exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as
transactions not involving a public offering. The recipients of the securities
were accredited investors.

     In October 2000, in connection with the acquisition of CFI Holdings, Inc.,
GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. issued 18,000 preferred units and 2,000 common units,
representing $1.8 million and $200,000 of the
                                       II-2
   112

purchase price, respectively, to a stockholder of CFI Holdings, Inc. All of the
above issuances of equity interests were made in reliance on the exemption from
registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as transactions not
involving a public offering. The recipient of the securities was an accredited
investor.

     From time to time, GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. granted options to purchase equity
interests in GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. through (1) its 1998 option plan and 1998
non-employee director option plans, both of which were terminated and all
options issued pursuant thereto were redeemed as part of the August 2000
recapitalization, and (2) its 2000 option plan, which will be assumed upon
completion of the reorganization transaction and the common units available for
option grants under the 2000 option plan will be replaced by shares of our
common stock with the same economic value as of the completion of the
reorganization transaction. As of March 31, 2001, there were outstanding options
to purchase an aggregate of 103,889.3 common units of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C., at
an exercise price of $10.00 per unit. We will assume these options upon
completion of the reorganization transaction and convert them into economically
equivalent options to purchase our common stock. These issuances of options to
directors, officers and employees were made pursuant to Rule 701 of the
Securities Act.

     Immediately prior to the closing of this offering, we will issue
approximately 37,493,264 shares of our common stock to the holders of the
outstanding preferred and common units of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. in exchange for
those units in connection with this reorganization transaction. The issuance of
our common stock upon contribution by the members of GEEG Holdings, L.L.C. of
the equity interests will be made in reliance on the exemption from registration
under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as a transaction not involving
a public offering and the recipients of the securities will be accredited
investors.

ITEM 17.  UNDERTAKINGS.

     The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters
at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreements certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (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 such
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 such issue.

     The Registrant hereby undertakes that:

     (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in the form of
prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h)
under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of the Registration
Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

     (2) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.

behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in Tulsa, Oklahoma on May
