    Notice is hereby given that on October 8, 2010, a proposed Consent 
Decree in United States of America v. AMETEK, Inc., et al., Civil 
Action No. 10-cv-5291, was lodged with the United States District Court

    In this action the United States sought to recover from the

Protection Agency (``EPA'') and future costs in responding to releases 
or threatened releases of hazardous substances at or from the North

County, Pennsylvania (the ``Site''). The Consent Decree obligates 
AMETEK, Inc. and Penn Color, Inc., to perform remedial work at the Site 
and to reimburse EPA's past and future response costs related to the 
Site.
    The Consent Decree requires the settling parties to pay to finance 
and perform remaining cleanup at the Site by establishing and 
maintaining a performance guarantee initially in the amount of 
$2,039,900.00. The Consent Decree also requires the settling parties to 
pay the EPA Hazardous Substance Superfund the principal sum of 
$185,522.41, due within thirty (30) days of entry of the Consent 
Decree. The settling parties are also required to pay all future 
response costs within thirty (30) days of receiving a bill from EPA.
