Except for any PCB's in the transformers servicing the Buildings, if any, Seller shall remove from the Premises any and all hazardous liquids and materials prior to the Closing Date. Further on June 4, 2002, Purchaser received a Phase I environmental site assessment report from its environmental consultant, Clayton Group Services (the "Environmental Report"). A copy of the Executive Summary of the Environmental Report is attached hereto as Exhibit I. The Executive Summary of the Environmental Report identified three (3) potential recognized environmental conditions associated with the Premises. Purchaser's lender has required that Purchaser conduct additional investigation and assessment, as provided in the Executive Summary related to the three (3) potential recognized environmental conditions noted in the Environmental Report. Based upon the Executive Summary, Purchaser's secured lender required that Purchaser conduct additional investigation and assessment of the Premises. As a result, Purchaser had its environmental consultant, Clayton Group Services ("Clayton") perform a phase II environmental site assessment of the Premises, based upon the Executive Summary, which additional investigation included the taking of eight soil borings from the Premises. The results of the eight soil borings taken from the Premises, upon such soil borings being analyzed by Clayton are attached hereto as Exhibit J. Based upon the phase II environmental site assessment mentioned above and the results set forth in Exhibit J, the Purchaser shall after the Closing prepare and file with the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality ("MDEQ") a Baseline Environmental Assessment together with a Section 20107a Compliance Analysis (the "BEA"). All costs and expenses associated with the preparation and filing of the BEA shall be the sole responsibility of the Purchaser. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the BEA will be filed with the MDEQ for disclosure purposes only and not for determination purposes or response purposes. A copy of -13- the BEA and the phase II environmental site assessment performed by Clayton for the Purchaser as provided above, shall be provided to the Seller upon completion and/or filing as applicable. If the MDEQ and/or any other governmental authority or other third party initiates or commences an enforcement, remediation, reimbursement or other action against the Seller or the Purchaser based upon the BEA, the Seller shall diligently defend and/or resolve the same at its initial cost and expense, provided however, that if Seller's reasonable cost and expense in defending and/or resolving any of the above actions exceeds $75,000.00, Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse Seller for any and all costs and expenses incurred by Seller which exceeds $75,000.00 or in the alternative, at the election of the Seller, Purchaser shall pay directly any and all costs and expenses which exceed $75,000.00. 6.5 No-Shop/Exclusivity. Upon the parties' execution of this Agreement and through Closing or the termination of this Agreement as provided herein, Seller will not solicit, initiate, or encourage the submission of any additional proposals or offers from any persons other than Purchaser relating to the acquisition of the Premises or participate in any additional discussions or negotiations regarding, furnish any information with respect to, assist or participate in, or facilitate in any other manner any effort or attempt by any person other than Purchaser to acquire the Property. 7.0 Representations and Warranties of Purchaser 7.1 Authority.

("Clayton") to conduct a Phase I environmental site assessment and limited suspect asbestos-containing materials ("ACM") assessment of the light industrial property located at 9800 Inkster Road in Romulus (Wayne County), Michigan. Clayton performed the Phase I environmental assessment and limited suspect ACM assessment in conformance with the scope and limitations of American Society for Testing and Materials ("ASTM") Standard Practice E-1527-00 and Comerica Bank's Guidance Document dated June, 1997. The objective of the assessment was to provide an independent, professional opinion regarding recognized environmental conditions (as defined by ASTM), if any, associated with the site. The scope of services provided by Clayton is described in Clayton's proposal (No. 02-DetES-1590) dated May 10, 2002, and addressed to Mr. Muskett. The terms and conditions under which the project was conducted were included in Clayton's proposal. In the professional opinion of Clayton, an appropriate level of inquiry has been made into the previous ownership and uses of the property consistent with good commercial and customary practice in an effort to minimize liability, and no evidence or indication of recognized environmental conditions has been revealed, except for the following: . The former operation of a steam clean area within the machine and die shop This area contains a concrete floor, a single-floor drain and associated sump, which discharge to an adjacent above ground storage tank ("AST"), and was used to steam clean press dies and other equipment utilized within the subject building. Minor staining of the concrete flooring was noted in this area. . The presence of ten machine pits and four machine trenches within the shop area According to Mr. Ronald Spears, Director of Health, Safety and Environmental for Shiloh Industries, Inc. (the current owner and previous occupant of the subject property), these trenches and pits are not known to have been constructed with a liner, and several of the pits are believed to contain collection sumps. These pits were used to house press equipment and to contain associated fluids (i.e., cutting fluid and lubricant). . The presence of staining near and a visible oil sheen within the southern-most floor drain located within the receiving area of the subject building. This staining and sheen may have resulted from a potentially hazardous material released from containers handled in this portion of the building. Because recognized environmental conditions were identified during the performance of the Phase I environmental site assessment, further investigation and/or assessment is warranted in order to determine the nature, extent, magnitude, and materiality of recognized environmental conditions at the property. The estimated cost of the additional investigation, which we believe to be necessary, ranges from $9,600 if groundwater is not encountered to $13,400 if groundwater is encountered. This investigation will include: . Drilling 8 soil borings to a maximum depth of 16 feet below ground surface . Collecting soil samples from each soil boring . Collecting a groundwater sample from each boring, if groundwater is encountered . Analyzing soil and groundwater samples for one or more of the following: volatile organic compounds (VOCs), polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PNAs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and metals (arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, selenium, silver, and zinc) . Preparing a report documenting subsurface investigation activities Clayton failed to observe evidence of gross material non-compliance associated with the subject property at the time of the site walkthrough. A subsurface investigation of the subject property was not undertaken as part of this assessment. Access to the subject property was not limited at the time of the assessment, with the exception of several machine pits and trenches within the building which were covered either with machinery or steel plates. The information and opinions presented in this Phase I environmental site assessment report should not be misconstrued as information and opinions normally pertaining to a formal environmental compliance audit.
