November 20 , 1998
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Joyce A. Parker, City Manager
SUBJECT: Inducement Resolution with Summit Finishing
of Elgin for the City' s 1999 Annual Industrial
Revenue Bond Authority
PURPOSE
The purpose of this memorandum is to pr
esent to the Mayor and
members of the City Council a request from Summit Finishing
for $4 . 3 million of 1999 Industrial Revenue Bond (IRB) author-
ity.
BACKGROUND
The City has received a request regarding the availability of
IRBs for business expansion from Summit Finishing in the
amount of $4 . 3 million.
The principal product manufactured by Summit Finishing is a
tin metallization system primarily for use in automotive
interconnect applications . This process is relatively new to
the North American automotive industry, but has been a stan-
dard product in the Japanese market for over 15 years .
Japanese competitors have been entering the U. S. market with
this technology. Summit Finishing of Elgin intends to offer
an American competitor to capture a large share of this
growing market segment .
It is estimated that the North American market for the tradi-
tional metallized tin technologies is at $182 million, with an
additional $9 million presently using the tin metallization
processes . The overall market for metallized tin products,
however, has been growing at an annual rate of over 405t- for
the past four years . This trend is expected to continue and
accelerate over the next five years as connector designs using
the metallized tin system become standard in new automotive
applications .
In 1998 , Amax Plating, Inc . , a sister company of Summit
Finishing, used bond funds to purchase and install new plating
equipment at their facility located at 970 East Chicago
Street . Amax Plating is in the business of reel-to-reel
plating of precious and non-precious metals . The components
produced are used in all interconnection applications . Amax
Inducement Resolution/Summit Finishing
November 20 , 1998
Page 2
occupies a land site of 230 , 694 square feet in four buildings
totalling 48 , 680 square feet . Amax had given serious consid-
eration to relocating its facility outside of Illinois . The
availability of IRB funding for the new plating equipment
relieved pressures to relocate the Elgin Operation.
MG Capital, the holding company for Amax Plating and Summit
Finishing, hopes to build upon the success of the relationship
between MG Capital, Amax Plating and the City of Elgin. MG
plans to purchase Summit Finishing of Indianapolis and relo-
cate the company to Elgin.
The plant, currently located in Indianapolis, is equipped with
over $3 million in the latest electroplating technology. The
corporation has been unable to meet profitability targets . MG
Capital plans to purchase the assets of this two-year-old
business and start a new business, Summit Finishing of Elgin,
Inc . This new company will address a market segment, automo-
tive interconnect electronics, which does not fit with Amax
Plating' s present capabilities or plans . MG Capital plans to
bring the new business to Elgin. This new business is based
on technology and assets that fit with MG' s present plating
operations in Elgin. The plan requires use of a portion of
Amax' s present plant and sharing its advanced wastewater
treatment facilities .
The plan for Summit Finishing of Elgin calls for substantial
job creation in Elgin. In order to take advantage of the
experience in operating the tin metallization equipment, three
managers and two production supervisors will be transferred
from the current Indianapolis operations to the new Elgin-
based business . With the start-up of the new business in
Elgin, 35 new full-time employees will be added, two in
managerial functions, four additional production supervisors,
three clerical employees and 26 direct production employees .
Within two years of operations, the company' s business plan
forecasts the addition of 11 new full-time positions being
added. This is a total addition of 51 jobs to the Elgin
employment base .
MG' s business plan calls for joint financing, equity invested
by MG Capital coupled with the proposed Industrial Revenue
Bonds . The cost of acquiring and installing the operating
assets, namely four tin metallization electroplating lines, is
in excess of $5 . 2 million. This figure includes equipment
acquisition costs, the modification and expansion of one
building at Amax' s present site, the relocation and installa-
tion of the equipment, as well as costs associated with lease
termination in Indianapolis . There are additional capital
requirements associated with establishing Summit Finishing of
Elgin, including severance costs for current Indianapolis
employees, locating, hiring and training costs for new employ-
ees, and working capital investments to support growth before
the operation achieves self-sustaining profitability. MG

Capital estimates that total investment will amount to $8
million in the first two years of operation. This level of
investment cannot be financed using only equity and tradition-
al sources of capital (such as bank debt) . Therefore, $4 . 3
million if IRB funding is required to complement nearly $4
million of equity slated for investment into the business .
MG Capital has committed to upgrading the quality of the
expanded plant to include a pre-cast concrete or brick struc-
ture (see Attachment C) . In addition, Summit Finishing has
committed to hiring most of their new employees from Elgin.
The IRB request of $4 . 3 million represents the City of Elgin' s
capacity as granted by the state for fiscal year 1999 (July 1,
1998 through June 30 , 1999) . Elgin' s IRB capacity will be
relinquished if not used by May 10, 1999 . Staff has been in
contact with local lending institutions and is not aware of
any other candidates for IRB use at this time .
COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED
None .
FINANCIAL IMPACT
All costs pertaining to the IRB issuance will be borne by
Summit Finishing. Attached are the IRB Application (Attach-
ment A) and an analysis performed by Speer Financial, Inc .

�V None .
ALTERNATIVES
1 . Authorize Summit Finishing to use $4 . 3 million of the
City' s IRE capacity.
2 . Deny the request by Summit Finishing to utilize $4 . 3
million of the City' s 1999 IRB capacity.
RECOMMENDATION
Speer Financial, Inc. has found the Summit Finishing operation
to be financially marginal for the next few years . However,
the bonds are to be secured by liens on the equipment and the
IRB project will enhance the joint existing business with Amax
Plating. Speer finds this a reasonable project and the
financing an acceptable one based on the lender obtaining
various security interests in the equipment and cash flow.

Coupled with the fact that MG Capital has agreed to hire the
bulk of their new employees from within the corporate limits
of Elgin and will enhance the quality of the exterior finish
of the new construction at the site, staff would recommend
that an inducement resolution be adopted for Summit Finishing
in the amount of $4 . 3 million in Industrial Revenue Bonds .

Elgin, IL 60120
Dear Mayor and Council:
Pursuant to the request of the City, Speer Financial, Inc. has reviewed the industrial revenue bond
application, and supporting documentation including unaudited financial reviews, of MG Capital on
behalf of Summit Finishing Company (the"Company"). MG Capital is owner of Amax Plating, Inc.,
an IRB applicant earlier this year. MG Capital has an option to purchase the Company, currently
located in Indianapolis, and bring it to the Amax property. The Company is applying for City
approval of$4,300,000 of industrial revenue bonds. The purchaser Is expected to be either
Finova Public Finance, Inc. of Richmond, Virginia, the same purchaser for Amax, or American
National Bank. Bond counsel has not been identified yet. Proceeds will be used for the purchase
and installation at an enlarged Amax plant of new plating equipment for a process known as Tin
Metallization. Legal,financial, working capital and other costs, in the amount projected as high as
$3,700,000, will be paid by MG Capital from equity sources.
The Company has been operating in Indianapolis for two years. Essentially a start up company, it
has not been profitable.
The principal business of Summit Finishing is a Tin Metallization system for use primarily in
automotive interconnect applications. This process is relatively new to the North American
automotive industry, but reportedly has been a standard product in the Japanese market for over
15 years. This process is stated to offer advantages over traditional metallized tin technologies,
allowing for more design options and Improved reliability for each interconnection. Japanese
competitors have been entering the U.S. market with this technology. There is one major provider
at this time, although it reportedly only supplies one major user, leaving a significant portion of the
market open. The Company strategy is to capture a large share of this growing market segment.
The Company reports that the North American market for the traditional metallized tin
technologies is estimated at$182 Million,with an additional $9 Million presently using the Tin
Metallization processes. The overall market has reportedly been growing at an annual rate of
over 40% for the past four years. This trend is expected to continue.
The market area served is primarily the automotive industry. Some 40 employees are to work for
the Company. The average employee salary is to be $40,000 per year, and the yearly payroll is
projected at$1,600,000. Over several years, an increased staff of 11 is expected. The benefit to
the City of the bond Issue is Job creation. Since the Company and its equipment will essentially be
housed In Amax's building,with some expansion, little tax base growth will occur.

Financial Anal is
As the accompanying table indicates, the Company's financial position for Its two years has been
poor. MG Capital has stated that the expectation of the Company Improving its position is based
on (1)getting past the start up period of creating the business and initial clientele (which is done)
and (2) cost reduction and sharing with Amax which is expected to save significant sums. The
cost reduction is shown in the accompanying table and totals some $270,000.
Details on the bonds are not determined. For analysis, a level payment of$400,000 has been
assumed (equal to a rate of 7%).
Conclusion
In summary, we find the Company to be financially marginal for the next couple of years.
However, the bonds are to be secured by liens on the equipment and the IRB project will enhance
the Joint business with Amax. We find this a reasonable project and the financing an acceptable
one based on the lender obtaining various security interests in the equipment and cash flow. We
would be pleased to discuss this with you.
Sincerely,
Kevin W. McCanna

Dear Ray,
It was a pleasure to talk with you this past Friday. MG Capital is excited about the opportunity to
bring Summit Finishing to Elgin,producing a number of economic benefits. As stated in the application,
we will be adding onto the existing building at AMAX Plating to house the lines. The Metalization plating
lines are approximately 120 feet long,requiring this add-on;we are planning on constructing a pre-cast
concrete or brick structure.
This structure will allow us to grow the customer base and number of employees in Elgin. As
outlined in our IDB application,the first five employees of Summit Finishing of Elgin will be transplants.
However,our discussions with Jim McConoughey,you,and our experience at AMAX give us great
confidence in our ability to identify and hire the next employees from Elgin. Our revenue forecast projects
a need for a total of 35 additional employees at the end of year two. We are now committing to hire each
of those employees locally,assuming that we can work together with the City and College to identify and
train personnel. This practice of hiring locally has increased our employee retention and morale,
contributing to an improved bottom line.
Thank you again and we look forward to the December 2nd meeting in front of the Honorable City
Council.
Respectfully,
