“Permitted AEC Transaction” shall mean (i) the sale of Equity Interests in AEC to a third party for fair value, (ii) the contribution of all or a portion of the assets of AEC (and any related technology and assets of the Company as the Company may determine) to an entity newly-formed for the purpose of establishing joint ownership with one or more third parties in exchange for Equity Interests in such newly-formed entity, (iii) any sale for fair value of Equity Interests in such newly-formed entity (in one or more transactions) to any third parties pursuant to the terms of the shareholders’ agreement, joint ownership agreement or other constitutive or operative document relating to such newly-formed entity (as such agreements or documents may be amended from time to time), and/or (iv) provision of additional services by the Company or a Subsidiary to such joint ownership entity (and/or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary thereof) on a basis at least sufficient to compensate the Company or such Subsidiary for its cost in providing such services (as such cost is determined in good faith by the Company or such Subsidiary).

Certain Transactions with Affiliates

Spectra Systems Corporation (“SSC”)

The Company made an investment of approximately $4 million in 1997 in SSC, which is engaged in the development of textiles using dispersed laser technology. At the same time, the Company entered into an exclusive supply arrangement pursuant to which SSC is obligated to purchase all of its monofilament or textile products from the Company, and to pay certain royalties to the Company on sales of SSC products that incorporate materials supplied by the Company. SSC also granted to the Company an exclusive license to use SSC products in paper machine clothing and related products. In addition, the Company’s Subsidiary, Albany International Research Co., has provided research and technical support to SSC. The remaining interests of SSC are not, to the Company’s knowledge, held by Affiliates of the Company. As of December 31, 2009, the Company was no longer engaged in any commercial or other business activities with SSC. Any future dealings with SCC (which are not anticipated) would be at arm’s length.

Nevo Cloth Ltd. (“Nevo Cloth”)

Albany Nordiskafilt AB (“Albany Nordiskafilt”), the Company’s principal Swedish Subsidiary, established Nevo Cloth as a 50/50 equity joint venture with a local Russian partner to gain a manufacturing presence in Russia in the Company’s core paper machine clothing business. Albany Nordiskafilt supplies paper machine clothing and related products to Nevo Cloth for resale to customers in Russia. The other shareholder of Nevo Cloth is not, to the Company’s knowledge, an Affiliate of the Company.
