The Closing Tangible Net Book Value of the Cash, Inventories, Receivables, Prepaids and Fixed Assets included in the Purchased Assets and the Retained Cash, Retained Inventories, Retained Receivables, Retained Prepaids and Retained Fixed Assets included in the Retained Assets, less the Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses included in the Assumed Obligations and less the Retained Accounts Payable and Retained Accrued Expenses included in the Continuing Obligations will be determined as of the Closing Time in accordance with the Accounting Instructions set forth in EXHIBIT B hereto (the "Accounting Instructions"). 33 48 SECTION 3.03.

At the Closing, MEGTEC shall pay or cause any Designated Purchaser to pay to Baldwin Enkel, Baldwin Amal and Baldwin Asia an estimated purchase price, in the aggregate, in the amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) (the "Estimated Purchase Price"). SECTION 3.04. ADJUSTMENT TO ESTIMATED PURCHASE PRICE. (a) ADJUSTMENT AMOUNT. The Estimated Purchase Price will be subject to post-Closing adjustment (a "Purchase Price Adjustment"), up or down, to the extent the Closing Tangible Net Book Value as of the Closing Time is more or less than Seven Million Three Hundred Seventy-Six Thousand Dollars ($7,376,000). Closing Tangible Net Book Value as of the Closing Time will be determined from a statement (the "Final Statement") prepared by MEGTEC in accordance with the Accounting Instructions and subject to review and approval by Baldwin Technology and its accountants, as provided in Section 3.04(b) hereof. Both Baldwin Technology and MEGTEC and their respective employees and representatives shall be entitled to participate in the taking of the physical inventory in connection with the preparation of the Final Statement. (b) FINAL STATEMENT. To determine whether an adjustment to the Estimated Purchase Price is required, MEGTEC will, within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing, prepare and deliver to Baldwin Technology a proposed Final Statement, which will reflect the Closing Tangible Net Book Value as of the Closing Time. The purchase price for the Baldwin Enkel portion of the Purchased Assets, the Baldwin Amal portion of the Purchased Assets and the CS Printing Shares shall be expressed in the Final Statement in United States Dollars using the foreign currency exchange rate for the applicable local currency as of the Closing Time as reported in the Eastern Edition of The Wall Street Journal. MEGTEC will provide Baldwin Technology and its accountants with reasonable access to its work papers for the Final Statement and permit Baldwin Technology and its accountants to review and/or audit the same, at Baldwin Technology's sole cost and expense. If Baldwin Technology disputes the Final Statement, Baldwin Technology shall deliver to MEGTEC within sixty (60) days 34 49 after receiving the Final Statement, a statement (the "Dispute Notice") setting forth what Baldwin Technology and its accountants believe is the correct Closing Tangible Net Book Value as of the Closing Time and describing, in reasonable detail, the basis for the determination of such different Closing Tangible Net Book Value. The Parties shall use reasonable efforts to resolve such differences regarding the determination of Closing Tangible Net Book Value as of the Closing Time for a period of thirty (30) days after Baldwin Technology has given the Dispute Notice. If the Parties resolve such differences, the Closing Tangible Net Book Value agreed to by the Parties shall be deemed to be the final Closing Tangible Net Book Value. (c) DISPUTE RESOLUTION. If the Parties do not reach a final resolution within thirty (30) days after Baldwin Technology has given the Dispute Notice, unless each Party agrees in writing in its sole discretion to continue its efforts to resolve all differences, Ernst & Young, LLP or another mutually acceptable "big 5" accounting firm (other than Arthur Andersen LLP or PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP) (the "Neutral Accountants") shall resolve such differences in the manner provided in this Section 3.04(c). Baldwin Technology and MEGTEC shall each be entitled to make a presentation to the Neutral Accountants, pursuant to procedures to be agreed to among MEGTEC, Baldwin Technology and the Neutral Accountants, advocating the merits of Closing Tangible Net Book Value as of the Closing Time as espoused by such Party; and the Neutral Accountants shall be required to resolve the differences between the Parties and determine Closing Tangible Net Book Value as of the Closing Time, solely in accordance with the provisions of the Accounting Instructions, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter. The Closing Tangible Net Book Value as of the Closing Time determined by the Neutral Accountants shall be deemed to be the final Net Book Value as of the Closing Time and the Purchase Price Adjustment, as adjusted to reflect such determination, shall be deemed to be the final Purchase Price Adjustment. Such determination by the Neutral Accountants shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties, absent fraud or manifest error. Nothing herein shall be construed to authorize or permit the Neutral Accountants 35 50 (i) to determine any questions or matters whatsoever under or in connection with this Agreement except for the resolution of differences between the Parties regarding the determination of Closing Tangible Net Book Value solely in accordance with the Accounting Instructions, or (ii) to resolve any such differences by making an adjustment to the Purchase Price Adjustment that is outside of the range defined by amounts as finally proposed by the Parties in their respective proposed statements of Closing Tangible Net Book Value submitted in accordance with this Section 3.04(c). (d) FEES. All fees, costs and expenses of the Neutral Accountants will be shared by MEGTEC and Baldwin Technology in inverse proportion to the aggregate dollar value of unresolved matters decided in each Party's favor, as determined by the Neutral Accountants in their sole discretion. (e) FAILURE TO DELIVER NOTICE. Failure of Baldwin Technology to deliver a Dispute Notice within sixty (60) days after receiving the Final Statement from MEGTEC shall constitute acceptance by Baldwin Technology of the Closing Tangible Net Book Value set forth in the Final Statement, whereupon such Closing Tangible Net Book Value shall be deemed to be the final Closing Tangible Net Book Value and the Purchase Price Adjustment shall be deemed to be the final Purchase Price Adjustment. (f) PAYMENT. Any amount due to or from Baldwin Technology, including interest as determined in accordance with Section 3.04(g) hereof, will be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of Closing Tangible Net Book Value, whether such determination is made by mutual agreement of the Parties or by decision of the Neutral Accountants. (g) INTEREST. Interest would be computed from the Closing Time to the date the Purchase Price Adjustment is paid at the prime rate of interest of The Bank of New York in effect on the date of Closing.

Each of Baldwin Technology, Baldwin Enkel, Baldwin Amal and Baldwin Asia hereby covenants and agrees that at all times from and after the Closing Time, it shall and shall cause its Affiliates to keep secret and maintain in strictest confidence, and not use for its benefit or for the benefit of others to compete directly or indirectly with the Roll Handling Business, any confidential or proprietary information relating to the Roll Handling Group, the Roll Handling Business, the Assumed Obligations, the Continuing Obligations, the Purchased Assets and the Retained Assets, including, without limitation, all know-how, trade secrets, formulas, bills of material, names of customers or suppliers, contracts and arrangements with customers, suppliers, joint venturers, or other third parties, pricing policies, operational methods, marketing plans or strategies or product development techniques or plans; no 93 108 provision of this Section 8.02(b) shall prohibit the (i) use, other than during the Restricted Period in a business which competes with the Roll Handling Business, by Baldwin Technology or its Affiliates of any such information that (A) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement, (B) is commonly known to Persons engaged in the Roll Handling Business or any similar industry or by individuals employed by Persons engaged in such industry other than as a result of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement, (C) is disclosed to Baldwin Technology or any of its Affiliates by any unrelated Person not under a duty of confidentiality or (ii) disclosure by any Party of such information that is required to be disclosed by such Party under any applicable law, regulation or final order of any Governmental Authority or court having jurisdiction over such Party or reasonably requested by any Governmental Authority (in which case such Party shall promptly give notice to MEGTEC of such required disclosure, describing in reasonable specificity and detail all information to be so disclosed and all relevant circumstances with respect to such disclosure, to enable MEGTEC to take any appropriate action in order to limit such required disclosure, and shall provide all reasonable cooperation to MEGTEC in connection with any such action). (c) REMEDIES.

It is further recognized and agreed that (i) irreparable injury may result to MEGTEC and any Designated Purchaser and their respective business and properties in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this covenant by Baldwin Technology, Baldwin Enkel, Baldwin Amal, Baldwin Asia or any of their respective Affiliates, and (ii) the amount or extent of a breach or 94 109 threatened breach of this covenant by Baldwin Technology, Baldwin Enkel, Baldwin Amal, Baldwin Asia or any of their respective Affiliates and the amount or extent of damages would be difficult if not impossible to ascertain and therefore, that any remedy at law for any breach by any of them of this covenant will be inadequate.

If a MEGTEC Entity or Baldwin Entity receives notice of the assertion of any Third Party Claim in respect of which such party may have a claim under Section 11.02 or 11.03 hereof, then the following shall apply: (a) The party against whom any such Third Party Claim is made (the "Indemnified Party"), shall promptly provide written notice (an "Indemnity Notice") of such Third Party Claim to the other party (the "Indemnifying Party"). Such Indemnity Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the nature of the Third Party Claim and the basis for its claim under Section 11.02 or 11.03 hereof; provided, that the failure to provide such notice shall not affect a party's rights under Section 11.02 or 11.03 hereof except to the extent the other party is prejudiced by the failure to give such notice. An Indemnity Notice by a party shall not preclude such party from giving subsequent Indemnity Notices with respect to other claims, whether arising before or after the claims for which such prior notice is given. (b) Upon receipt of an Indemnity Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to promptly assume, at its sole cost and expense, the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, provided that the Indemnifying Party has irrevocably agreed in writing to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party in respect of all Damages arising or resulting from such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall give prompt written notice to the Indemnified Party of its intent to enter into such agreement and assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim and shall conduct the defense and/or settlement of such Third Party Claim diligently and in good faith. 121 136 (c) Notwithstanding Section 11.04(b) hereof, if (i) an Indemnified Party is obligated to permit an insurer or other Third Party having liability therefore to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim; or (ii) the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party are both named parties in a Third Party Claim and there are legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (iii) if the Indemnifying Party fails, after reasonable notice from the Indemnified Party, to diligently and in good faith defend such Third Party Claim; or (iv) after being requested to do so by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party fails to provide the Indemnified Party with reasonable assurance of its financial ability to satisfy its defense and indemnification obligations hereunder, then, at the option of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim and the Indemnified Party may, by written notice to the Indemnifying Party, reassume the defense of any such Third Party Claim previously assumed by the Indemnifying Party. No retention or re-assumption of any such defense by the Indemnified Party shall prejudice any rights of the Indemnified Party under Section 11.02 or 11.03 hereof. (d) If the Indemnifying Party does not give written notice and assume the defense of such Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 11.04(b) hereof or is not entitled to assume or retain the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall have full and exclusive authority to defend and/or settle any such Third Party Claim for the account of and at the sole risk, cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party undertakes the defense and/or settlement of any such Third Party Claim it shall do so diligently and in good faith and the Indemnifying Party shall from time to time upon the request of the Indemnified Party reimburse the Indemnified Party for the costs incurred by the Indemnified Party in defending and/or settling such Third Party Claim. In such event, the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by settlement entered into by the Indemnified Party to the extent that such settlement is commercially reasonably measured in the context of the matter settled and by any judgment resulting from such Third Party Claim. 122 137 (e) The Parties agree that the Indemnified Party, at its sole cost and expense, may join the Indemnifying Party in any legal proceeding brought by the third party asserting such Third Party Claim as to which any right under Section 11.02 or 11.03 hereof would or might apply, for the purpose of enforcing any such right. (f) The Indemnifying Party shall not admit any liability, settle, compromise, pay or discharge, without the consent of the Indemnified Party, any Third Party Claim being defended by it unless with respect to any settlement (i) the Indemnified Party is not obligated to perform or to refrain from performing any act under such settlement and there is no encumbrance on any assets of the Indemnified Party; (ii) there is no finding or admission of any violation of any Legal Requirement, violation of the rights of any Person by the Indemnified Party or any other liability of the Indemnified Party to any Person; and (iii) the Indemnified Party receives, as a part of such settlement, a complete release, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. (g) The party controlling the defense of a Third Party Claim shall keep the other party reasonably informed at all stages of the defense and/or settlement of such Third Party Claim. The party not controlling the defense of any such Third Party Claim shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to participate in, but not control, the defense of any such Third Party Claim. Each party shall reasonably cooperate with the other in the defense and/or settlement of any such Third Party Claim, including, without limitation, by furnishing such records, information and testimony and attending such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith, but the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for any fees or expenses incurred by it in so cooperating or acting at the request of the Indemnifying Party. SECTION 11.05. LIMITATIONS. The rights to recover Damages under Sections 11.02 and 11.03 hereof shall be subject to the following: (a) Any remedy of an MEGTEC Entity or Baldwin Entity hereunder shall be determined without regard to whether or not the transactions 123 138 provided for in this Agreement prove generally to be favorable to a Party and without regard to whether or not the facts and circumstances covered by any representation, warranty or covenant prove to be more favorable to a Party than so represented, warranted or covenanted. (b) The Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty or covenant. (c) All representations, warranties and agreements made in this Agreement, in any Additional Document and in the Schedules and any Supplements shall be deemed to be material and to have been relied upon by Baldwin Technology, Baldwin Enkel, Baldwin Amal, Baldwin Asia, or Sequa or MEGTEC, as the case may be. As used in this Article XI, any reference to a representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Section of this Agreement shall include the Schedule and Supplements relating to such Section. (d) For purposes of this Article XI, a MEGTEC Entity or Baldwin Entity, respectively shall be deemed to have suffered Damages if the same shall be suffered by any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of such MEGTEC Entity or Baldwin Entity. (e) The MEGTEC Entities shall not be entitled to recover Damages under Section 11.02(a) hereof until the MEGTEC Entities collectively have incurred Damages in excess of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) (the "Threshold Amount") in which event, subject to Section 11.05(g) hereof, a MEGTEC Entity shall be entitled to make a claim under Section 11.02(a) hereof for all Damages incurred by the MEGTEC Entities, in excess of the Threshold Amount. (f) No MEGTEC Entity or Baldwin Entity shall be entitled to recover Damages under Sections 11.02(a) or 11.03(a) hereof, as the case may 124 139 be, unless it shall make its claim therefor on or prior to the date on which the relevant representation or warranty or covenant shall expire pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof and if, prior to the expiration of the representation or warranty or covenant, a claim is made then the MEGTEC Entity or Baldwin Entity making such claim shall not be precluded from pursuing such claim or otherwise in any way prejudiced in respect of such claim by reason of the expiration of such representation or warranty or covenant. (g) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Baldwin Entities have any liability for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.02(a) hereof in an aggregate amount in excess of the Estimated Purchase Price. (h) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the liability of any Baldwin Entity for indemnification under Section 11.02(a) hereof for: (i) any inaccuracy or misrepresentation in or breach of any representation or warranty of any Baldwin Entity contained in this Agreement or in any Schedule or in any Supplement or in any other Additional Document shall in any such case be reduced if and to the extent that, and only to the extent that, any of the individuals listed on SCHEDULE 1.04 had, at or prior to the Closing Time, actual knowledge of such inaccuracy of misrepresentation or breach. In no event shall knowledge be imputed or any defense whatsoever asserted by any Baldwin Entity that any such individuals "could have known" or "should have known". It is further acknowledged and agreed that the Baldwin Entities shall have the burden or proof with respect to establishing such actual knowledge and that such actual knowledge may not be based upon allegations of Sequa, MEGTEC or their Affiliates, including any Designated Purchaser, having been orally informed by any current or former employees of either Baldwin Technology, Baldwin Amal, Baldwin Enkel, Baldwin 125 140 Printing or Baldwin Asia or their respective Affiliates of any matter whatsoever; and (ii) any failure to perform or breach of any covenant or agreement made by any Baldwin Entity contained in this Agreement shall in any such case be reduced if and to the extent that, and only to the extent that, such failure to perform or breach is described in reasonable detail in any Additional Document. (i) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the limitations contained in this Section 11.05 shall not in any matter apply to Assumed Obligations, Continuing Obligations, Excluded Liabilities or Indemnified Liabilities. SECTION 11.06. ENVIRONMENTAL LIMITATION. (a) Subject to Section 11.06(c) hereof, Baldwin Technology and its Affiliates hereby waive, release and agree not to make any claim or bring any cost recovery action against Sequa, MEGTEC and any Designated Purchaser and their respective Affiliates under CERCLA or any equivalent Legal Requirement now existing or hereafter enacted with respect to any Excluded Liability or Indemnified Liability.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no MEGTEC Entity shall be entitled to claim or seek indemnity or defense from any Baldwin Indemnifying Party for any Environmental Losses where the Environmental Losses result from or would not have arisen but for any intrusive investigation or disclosure by any MEGTEC Entity, unless such investigation or disclosure was: (1) required by applicable Environmental Laws; (2) required by a Governmental Authority; (3) performed in connection with the discovery of Hazardous Substances during or as a result of any stage of a 130 145 proposed or actual facility expansion or renovation; (4) performed in connection with an unaffiliated third party offer received after the Closing Time to purchase or lease any of the real property subject to this transaction or the business or assets or share capital of MEGTEC, any Designated Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates; (5) required, in the good faith belief of the relevant MEGTEC Entity, to respond to an emergency situation to protect human health or safety; (6) required by insurers, lenders, prospective purchasers or underwriters; (7) conducted pursuant to the relevant MEGTEC Entity's environmental compliance policy; or (8) performed in connection with any other commercially reasonable business purpose including in response to the recommendation of outside environmental legal counsel (other than for the sole intent and purpose of triggering an indemnification obligation of the Baldwin Indemnifying Parties under Article XI hereof). (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Baldwin Indemnifying Parties' indemnification obligations under this Article XI with respect to Environmental Losses at the Amal Facility and the Shanghai Facility are limited to the lowest cost response action acceptable (1) under Environmental Laws and (2) to applicable Governmental Authorities, including but not limited to site-specific, risk-based standards or the use of engineering or institutional controls, based on the current or similar industrial use of the relevant property, provided, however, the Baldwin Indemnifying Parties may not implement the lowest response action if such action or controls could be reasonably expected to unreasonably or materially interferes with the relevant MEGTEC Entity's industrial use of the property (including any actual renovations or expansions implemented by the relevant MEGTEC Entity prior to expiration of the time periods specified in Sections 11.01 or 11.06(c) hereof, as the case may be). (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Environmental Losses incurred by the MEGTEC Entities for which the Baldwin Indemnifying Parties have an indemnification obligation under Article XI hereof shall include all out-of-pocket expenses and costs of the relevant 131 146 MEGTEC Entity that arise directly out of any interference in the relevant MEGTEC Entity's operations caused by an environmental response action or engineering control implemented or imposed by the Baldwin Indemnifying Parties pursuant to their indemnification obligation with respect to Environmental Losses under Article XI hereof, provided, however, Environmental Losses shall not include expenses, costs or profits associated with future, potential or contingent sales or revenues but shall include all such expenses, costs or profits associated with the existing accepted customer orders which may be materially or unreasonably impacted, provided further, that the MEGTEC Entities shall undertake commercially reasonable steps to minimize any such Environmental Losses, provided such steps do not unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of the MEGTEC Entities. Any such Environmental Losses payable to the MEGTEC Entities shall be net of any insurance recovery, provided that nothing in this Section 11.06(g) shall be construed to require the MEGTEC Entities to seek to obtain, to obtain or hold any such insurance. SECTION 11.07. SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. The specific remedies under this Article XI shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties for the recovery of money damages for any breach by any other Party of its respective representations, warranties, covenants or other obligations set forth in this Agreement or made or given in a certificate or document delivered pursuant hereto.

To so recover, it shall not be necessary that the prevailing Party or Parties prevail in each and every one of its or their claims. Rather, the amount of the award of attorneys' fees shall, in the court's discretion, reflect the degree to which the prevailing Party or Parties has or have prevailed in some of its or their claims.

(b) Attorneys' fees incurred by any Party in enforcing any judgment on any action brought to resolve any controversy arising under this Agreement, to enforce any of its terms or for the breach of this Agreement, shall be recoverable by the prevailing Party or Parties. Such right to post judgment attorneys' fees shall be separate and distinct from the right to recover attorneys' fees pursuant to Section 11.10(a) hereof.

The Parties agree that, after a Legal Dispute is before a court as specified in this Section 11.11(a) and during the pendency of such Legal Dispute before such court, all actions, suits, or proceedings with respect to such Legal Dispute or any other Legal Dispute, including, without limitation, any counterclaim, cross-claim or interpleader, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court. Each of the Parties hereby waives, and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any legal dispute, that such Party is not subject thereto or that such action, suit, or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such court or that such Party's property is exempt or immune from execution, that the action, suit or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the action, suit, or proceeding is improper. Each Party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any action, suit or proceeding described in this Section 11.11(a) after the expiration of any period 134 149 permitted for appeal and subject to any stay during appeal shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable laws.
