Owner attestations · Three closed mandates

What founder-owners say after the wire clears.

Three parchment exhibits — one per closed mandate. Each ends with the deal-result mega-numeral footer: enterprise value, days-on-clock, and the exclusivity-extension badge.

Exhibit T-1 · Westbridge Industrial Solutions · Cincinnati

A clause-by-clause LOI walkthrough.

“Marcus walked us through the LOI clause by clause. We went from feeling overwhelmed to feeling like we owned the room. By the management presentation he was flagging integration risks before the buyer’s deal team did. The Deal-Clock band kept my wife and me sane through the exclusivity window — we always knew where we were.”

— Greg & Patricia W.Westbridge Industrial Solutions · 38-year aerospace contract manufacturer · Cincinnati

Exhibit T-2 · Atlas Precision Group · Milwaukee

A QofE that caught the working-capital trick before we did.

“The buyer-side QofE tried to retread our working-capital target down by $1.4M three days before close. Aiyana had already modeled it on our side. Marcus called the partner directly, walked through the inventory aging schedule, and we held the original target. That single phone call paid for the entire process.”

— Hank VassalloFounder, Atlas Precision Group · 28-year aerospace + medical-device machining · Milwaukee

Exhibit T-3 · Riverbend Automation · Indianapolis

A curated buyer log that did not leak.

“Other bankers told us they could approach two hundred names. Marcus said he would approach fourteen. Eleven signed an NDA, four came in with IOIs, two went to final round, and one closed at $112M. Not a single rumor in our customer base, not a single line in the trade press. The discipline was the product.”
