			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On May 13, 2011, Argosy Private Equity provided financing to support the acquisition of Applied Materials’ (NASDAQ: AMAT) Chamber Performance Services Business (“CPS”) by Quantum Global Technologies, LLC (“Quantum”).  Quantum (<a href="http://www.quantumclean.com">www.quantumclean.com</a>), headquartered in suburban Philadelphia, was founded in 2000 by two chemical engineers (one from Air Products and one with a Kellogg School MBA) and has grown to become a leader in the high purity outsourced parts cleaning and coating industry with six ISO 9001 facilities in the U.S. and Singapore.  CPS operates seven facilities in the U.S., Israel, Scotland, Taiwan and Singapore.</p>
<p>The combination of Quantum and CPS creates the largest U.S., and a strong international, supplier of cleaning and coating services to semiconductor fabrication companies.  Using over 100 patented processed and advanced coating techniques, including a unique patent on quantifying surface purity, Quantum cleans both new and recycled parts to “clean room” standards and has  become an integral service partner for companies such as Intel, which named Quantum a “Roadmap Supplier” in 2008.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On May 10, 2011, Argosy Private Equity acquired a controlling ownership interest in Asia America Corporation (“AAC”).  Based in Waxhaw, NC (30 miles south of Charlotte), with additional operations in Seattle, WA, AAC (<a href="http://www.asiaamericacorp.com">www.asiaamericacorp.com</a>) is a value-added distributor providing component sourcing, kitting, sub-assembly, logistics and vendor / inventory management services for industrial and material handling manufacturers and OEMs.</p>
<p>AAC excels at sourcing high precision parts (gears, bearings, precision castings, etc.) for OEMs at significantly lower costs while maintaining high product quality levels. The Company offers kitting, sub-assembly, logistics and inventory management services that enable its customers to reduce inventory levels, SKU’s and material handling costs and facilitate just-in-time delivery practices. Asia America focuses its efforts on low volume parts for which purchasing departments of large industrial and material handling manufacturers and OEMs typically cannot implement a cost-effective sourcing solution.</p>
