                      Investment in Non-Guarantor Locations

Additional Investment in China                                $5,600,000

     APW Shanghai Ltd. (PRC) was originally incorporated in China with $10
million of registered capital. The agreement with the Chinese authorities, in
exchange for receiving the land for free, is to fully satisfy the registered
capital requirement by January 2003. To date, APW Shanghai has $4.4 million of
capital, thus requiring an additional $5.6 million by January 2003.

     The current plan is to satisfy the $5.6 million capital requirement by
capitalizing the $4.5 million inter-company loan between APW Shanghai Ltd. and
APW Hungary and providing an additional $1.1 million of cash. Although not yet
provided in writing, APW has received verbal approval to extend the timing of
the required capitalization to June 2003.

Additional Investment in Poland         $1,900,000 for transfer of equipment
                                        $1,600,000 for start-up, working capital

The expansion into Bydgoszcz and Plonsk will require $1.6 million of cash for
start-up costs, working capital requirements, salaries, lease, etc. In addition,
$1.9 million of idle equipment will be transferred to the Plonsk facility by
February 2003.

Repurchase of Hong Kong share capital
during 2003 Third Fiscal Quarter                              $2,000,000

In February 2001, APW and Matthew Chow signed an agreement for APW to purchase
the 50% share of the business from Mr. Chow. Valuation of this 50% share was
established as 6X EBIT as of December 31, 2000 x 50% or $2 million. Timing of
this transaction has been delayed as APW has investigated the possibility that
the contract may have been non-binding. Although APW continues to pursue other
avenues to reduce or eliminate this obligation, legal counsel has advised that
the contract is legally binding and must be satisfied. Timing is expected to be
Q2 of FY 03.

Repurchase of Singapore share capital
during 2003 Third Fiscal Quarter                              $4,000,000

In March 2000, APW and Mark Kou signed an agreement for APW to purchase a 52%
stake in the Singapore operations. The deal included an option for Mr. Kou to
put the 48% of the business he owns back to APW based on several valuation
calculations. Mr. Kou exercised his put option in September 2001 with a required
payment of $4 million. APW has pursued other

avenues to reduce or eliminate this obligation. Timing is expected to be Q3 of
FY 03. Unless an alternate resolution is reached, APW is currently in
discussions with Mr. Kou to sell the 52% of the business owned by APW to Mr. Kou
and avoid paying the $4 million.

Brazil earn out/escrow due 2003
Fourth Fiscal Quarter                                         $2,500,000

An escrow balance of $4 million was established as part of APW's purchase of the
Brazilian operations in December 2000. During FY 2002, a required $2.5 million
earnout payment was funded from the escrow reducing the escrow balance to $1.5
million. The escrow is required to be fully funded with the additional $2.5
million by June 2003.
