Seller fails to respond to Buyer within 30 days of Seller receiving such IRS
Form 8594, then Seller shall be deemed to have approved Buyer's allocation.

Fifty Thousand Dollars ($350,000.00) less the amount of the Sumiglass Deposits

requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease, and operate its assets
and to carry on the Purchased Business as it is now being conducted.

provisions of this Agreement constitute legal, valid, and binding obligations of
AGI, enforceable against AGI in accordance with their respective provisions,
except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, and other similar laws and equitable principles of
general application affecting the rights of creditors and general principles of
equity affecting the right to specific enforceability of any of the remedies
contained herein and therein. The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the

<PAGE>
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and compliance
by AGI with the provisions of this Agreement will not:

                  (1) Result in a default or give rise to any right of
         termination, cancellation, or acceleration under any of the provisions
         of any note, lien, bond, mortgage, indenture, license, lease,
         agreement, or other instrument or obligation to which AGI is a party or

         breach or default as to which valid waivers or consents shall be
         obtained prior to Closing;

                  (2) Violate any judgment, order, writ, injunction or decree of
         any court, administrative agency, or governmental body applicable to

         notice, the passage of time, or both) the maturity of any liability or
         obligation of AGI to be accelerated or increased.

         (B) Subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court, the Schedules, the
execution, and delivery of this Agreement by AGI; the consummation by AGI of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and compliance by AGI with the
provisions of this Agreement will not:

                  (1) Conflict with or result in a breach of any provision of
         the organizational documents of AGI or result in a default or give rise
         to any right of termination, cancellation, or acceleration under any of
         the provisions of any note, lien, bond, mortgage, indenture, license,
         lease, agreement, or other instrument or obligation to which AGI is a
         party or by which AGI , any of the Purchased Assets, or AGI's business
         may be bound, except for such conflict, breach or default as to which
         valid waivers or consents shall be obtained prior to Closing;

                  (2) Violate any judgment, order, writ, injunction, or decree

         without notice, the passage of time, or both), the maturity of any
         liability or obligation of the Purchased Business to be accelerated or
         increased.

         (C) Except as set forth in Schedule 4.02(C) and subject to the approval
of the Bankruptcy Court, all filings, consents, and approvals of third parties
and governmental authorities required in connection with the execution and
delivery by AGI of this Agreement and the consummation by AGI of the

instruments of AGI in connection with the change of ownership of the Purchased
Business resulting from such transactions) have been obtained.



                                                                               8

suppliers during the past twelve months. No such customer or supplier of AGI has

of such an intention prior to Closing. AGI has not engaged in any forward

no customer prepayments or deposits except as set forth on Schedule 1.02(A).

manufactured or sold by AGI since December 18, 2000, has been in conformity in
all material respects with all applicable contractual commitments and all
express and implied warranties, and Seller knows of no liability or obligation
for replacement or repair thereof or other damages in connection therewith,
subject, in each case, only to the reserve for product warranty claims contained
in the Financial Statements and except as incurred in the ordinary course of
business. No product manufactured, sold, leased, or delivered by AGI since
December 18, 2000, is subject to any guaranty or warranty beyond the applicable
standard terms and conditions of sale or lease, except as may be required by
law. Exhibit 4.12 contains copies of the three standard warranties issued by
AGI, which set forth the aforementioned standard terms and conditions of sale
for AGI (containing applicable guaranty and warranty provisions).

         SECTION 4.13. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. AGI's income statement for the
period ended November 30, 2001 and balance sheet dated as of November 30, 2001
have been furnished to Arch (collectively, the "Financial Statements"). The
Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and past practices, consistently applied, are true and
correct in all material respects, contain no untrue statements of a material
fact, do not omit any material fact necessary in order to make such Financial
Statements not misleading, and are a true and accurate reflection of the
operations of AGI for the periods described therein in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles consistently applied.

         SECTION 4.14. TAXES. Within the times and in the manner prescribed by
law, Seller has filed all federal, state and local tax returns and reports
required by law to have been filed by them relating to AGI, the Purchased Assets
and the Purchased Business, and have paid all taxes, assessments, and penalties
due and payable by them. There are no federal, state or local tax liens (other
than a lien for property taxes not delinquent) against any of the Purchased
Assets, nor are there any overdue federal, state or local taxes with respect to
the Purchased Business or any of the Purchased Assets. At the Closing, all taxes
and other assessments and levies that AGI is required by law to withhold or
collect, will have been duly withheld and collected, and if due, will be paid
over to or deposited with the proper governmental authorities. Seller is not
presently under nor has it received any notice of, any contemplated
investigation or audit by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local
government or governmental agency concerning Seller's taxes relating to AGI.

         SECTION 4.15. LITIGATION. Neither Seller nor any employee or officer of
either Seller is a party to any pending or, to the best of Seller's knowledge,
threatened litigation or administrative investigation or proceeding that would
materially or adversely affect the Purchased Assets or the Purchased Business,
nor does Seller know of any basis therefor. No complaints or charges of unlawful
conduct have been made against either Seller, any employees or officers of
either Seller, that relate in any way to the Purchased Assets or the Purchased
Business.

         SECTION 4.16. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS. Except as described in Schedule
4.16, neither Seller has any bonus, pension, profit sharing, or retirement
income, stock purchase, stock option, hospitalization insurance or similar
agreements, plans or


                                                                              12
<PAGE>
practices, formal or informal, covering any of the employees employed in the
Purchased Business, or under which either Seller has any present or future
obligation or liability or under which any current or former employee of AGI has
any present or future rights to benefits ("Employee Plans"). With respect to
each Employee Plan that is an employee pension benefit plan, as defined in
Section 3.2 of Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
("ERISA"), that is intended to be qualified within the meaning of Section 401(a)
of the Code ("Pension Plan"), a copy of the latest available summary plan
description, determination letter, and Form 5500 for the most recent plan year
have been made available to Buyer. Each Pension Plan has been determined by the
Internal Revenue Service to be qualified. Each Employee Plan has been operated
and administered in accordance with the requirements of ERISA and the Code. No
Employee Plan or any trustee or administrator thereof has engaged in a
"prohibited transaction" (as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or in Section 4975
of the Code) that would subject AGI, any Employee Plan, any trust created
thereunder, any trustee or administrator thereof, or any party dealing with any
Employee Plan to the liability set forth in Section 409(a) of ERISA or to the
tax or penalty on prohibited transactions imposed by Section 502 of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code. Neither Seller is or has ever been a party to a
Multi-Employer Plan and has no current or due "withdrawal liability" with
respect to any such Multi-Employer Plan. Buyer is not assuming any liability of
either Seller to any of AGI's employees or by reason of any Employee Plans.
Neither Seller is a party to any collective bargaining agreement or other labor
union or similar agreement relating to the employees of AGI, and neither Seller
is the subject of or, to the best of Seller's knowledge, threatened by any
strike or other labor disturbance by any group of employees, and to the best of
Seller's knowledge, no attempt or plan to organize AGI's employees is threatened
or contemplated. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.16, there are no claims, nor,
to the best of Seller's knowledge, has any event occurred that could be the
basis for any claim under workmen's compensation, occupational safety and
health, discrimination, ERISA or similar laws and regulations relating to the
employees of AGI.

         SECTION 4.17. ABSENCE OF UNDISCLOSED LIABILITIES. To the best of
Seller's knowledge, there are no liabilities of AGI that have not been disclosed
in the Financial Statements or this Agreement or the schedules attached hereto
that could materially and adversely affect the Purchased Assets or the Purchased
Business. To the best of Seller's knowledge, there is no basis for the assertion
against AGI of any liability of any nature or in any amount that is not fully
reflected or reserved against in the Financial Statements.

         SECTION 4.18. FRANCHISES, PERMITS AND LICENSES. Schedule 4.18 contains
a complete and correct list or summary description of all material franchises,
permits, licenses, approvals and other authorizations from federal, state and
local governmental authorities held by AGI in connection with the conduct of the
Purchased Business as presently conducted or the Purchased Assets.

         SECTION 4.19. LEGAL COMPLIANCE. To the best of Seller's knowledge, AGI
has complied in all material respects with all applicable laws (including rules,
regulations, codes, plans, injunctions, orders, decrees, rulings, and charges
thereunder) of federal, state, local, and foreign governments (and all agencies
thereof), and Seller has not


                                                                              13
<PAGE>
been notified of any action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge,
complaint, claim or demand against either Seller alleging any failure so to
comply.

relevant state and or federal law (including any requirement to issue a press
release promptly after the execution of this Agreement, obligation to file a
Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and disclosures

the appropriate disbursement.

limitations. AGI shall remain liable for all benefits accrued or claims incurred
prior to the Closing Date under any employee benefit plans, programs, and
policies maintained by AGI or for AGI's employees by any affiliate of AGI. Arch
Ohio shall only be liable for benefits accrued and claims under the employee
benefit plans, programs, and policies maintained by Arch Ohio incurred on or
after the Closing Date by those employees of AGI whom shall be offered
employment by Arch Ohio pursuant to Section 10.06.

         (B) Seller shall be solely responsible for the provisions of health
care continuation coverage required under COBRA for those former employees of
AGI and other persons whose entitlement to continuation coverage occurred on or
before the Closing Date.

         SECTION 10.08. CONDITIONS TO CLOSING. Each party will use best efforts
to ensure the prompt fulfillment of the conditions precedent to Arch Ohio and
AGI's performance set forth in Article VII and Article VIII, respectively.

         SECTION 10.09. PRE-CLOSING INVENTORY. Within two days prior to the

         (G) All claims, investigations, actions, suits, proceedings, demands,
assessments, judgments, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys'

Arch Ohio shall be obligated to indemnify Seller only to the extent the above
amounts exceed the proceeds of insurance, if any, paid to Seller covering the
claims or recoveries from third parties, and Seller covenants and agrees to
pursue in good faith and with reasonable diligence any claims available under
applicable insurance policies.

         SECTION 12.03. NOTICE. If any party believes that it has suffered or
incurred any Damages, that party shall so notify the indemnifying party promptly
in writing describing such loss or expense, the amount thereof, if known, and
the method of computation of such Damages, all with reasonable particularity to
permit the indemnifying party to assess the nature and cost of the claim. If any
action at law, suit in equity or administrative action is instituted by or
against a third party with respect to which any person intends to claim any
liability or expense as Damages under this Article XII, such party shall
promptly notify the indemnifying party of such action.

         SECTION 12.04. DEFENSE OF CLAIMS. The indemnifying party shall have
thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of either notice referred to in Section
12.03 of this Agreement to notify the indemnified party that it elects to
conduct and control any legal or administrative action or suit with respect to
an indemnifiable claim. If the indemnifying party does not give such notice, the
indemnified person shall have the right to defend, contest, settle or compromise
such action or suit in the exercise of its exclusive discretion, and the
indemnifying party shall, upon request from the indemnified person, promptly pay
the indemnified person in accordance with the other provisions of this Article
XII the amount of any Damages resulting from its liability to the third party
claimant. If the indemnifying party gives such notice, it shall have the right
to undertake, conduct, and control, through counsel of its own choosing at its
sole expense, the conduct and settlement of such action or suit, and the
indemnified person shall cooperate with the indemnifying party in connection
therewith; provided, however, that (A) the indemnifying party shall not thereby
permit to exist any lien, encumbrance, or other adverse charge securing the
claims indemnified hereunder upon any asset of the indemnified person, (B) the
indemnifying party shall not thereby consent to the imposition of any injunction
against the indemnified person without the written consent of the indemnified
person, (C) the indemnifying party shall permit the indemnified person to
participate in such conduct or settlement through counsel chosen by the
indemnified person, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by
the indemnified person except as provided in clause (D) below, and (D) upon a
final determination of such action or suit, the indemnifying party shall agree
promptly to reimburse to the extent required under this Article XII (subject to
the provisions of Section 12.07 of this Agreement) the indemnified person for
the full amount of any Damages resulting from such action or suit and all
reasonable and related expenses incurred by the indemnified person, except fees
and expenses of counsel for the indemnified person incurred after the assumption
of the conduct and control of such action or suit by the indemnifying party. So
long as the


                                                                              24
<PAGE>
indemnifying party is contesting any such action in good faith, the indemnified
person shall not pay or settle any such action or suit. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the indemnified person shall have the right to pay or settle any such
action or suit, provided that in such event the indemnified person shall waive
any right to indemnity therefor from the indemnifying party and no amount in
respect therefor shall be claimed as Damages under this Article XII.

         SECTION 12.05. COOPERATION. If requested by the indemnifying party, the
indemnified person shall cooperate with the indemnifying party and its counsel
in contesting any claim that the indemnifying party elects to contest or, if
appropriate, in making any counterclaim against the person asserting the claim
or any cross-complaint against any person and further agrees to take such other
action as reasonably may be requested by an indemnifying party to reduce or
eliminate any loss or expense for which the indemnifying party would have
responsibility, but the indemnifying party will reimburse the indemnified person
for any expenses incurred by it in so cooperating or acting at the request of
the indemnifying party.

         SECTION 12.06. PAYMENT OF DAMAGES. The indemnifying party shall
promptly pay to the indemnified person in immediately available funds the amount
of any Damages to which the indemnified person is entitled by reason of the
provisions of this Agreement. The parties covenant that any payment made
pursuant to this Article XII will be treated by the parties on their respective
tax returns as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

         SECTION 12.07. LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNIFICATION. Anything else in this
Agreement notwithstanding, Arch Ohio and Seller shall not have any obligation to
indemnify any other party's Indemnified Person under this Article XII (A) for
any claim that is not delivered in writing to the person from whom
indemnification is sought on or before 11:59 p.m. on the eighteen month
anniversary of the Closing Date; (B) for any claim unless and until the
aggregate amount of all such claims that may be asserted under this Article XII
exceed Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000), and then said Indemnified Person
may only assert a claim for the excess of such aggregate claims over Twenty Five
Thousand Dollars ($25,000); or (C), in excess of One Hundred and Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($150,000) for the aggregate of all claims made under this Article XII.

and representations contained in this Agreement or waive compliance with any of
the covenants or conditions contained in this Agreement and so waive performance
of any of the obligations of the other party to this Agreement and any defaults
under this Agreement; provided, however, that such waiver shall not affect or
impair the waiving party's rights with respect to any other warranty,
representation or covenant or any default under this Agreement, nor shall any
waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

         SECTION 13.05. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed
