(i)  Section 2.3 of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the

     Section 2.3.   Selection of Interest Rates and Tranche Periods.  (a)(1) The
provisions of this subsection (a)(1) shall apply to each Loan Amount of Windmill
funded with commercial paper issued on or before the Agent makes the election
described in clause (a)(2) below:  Each Loan Amount shall be allocated to one or
more Tranches reflecting the Interest Rates at which such Loan Amount accrues
Interest and the Tranche Periods for which such Interest Rates apply.  Each Loan
Amount of Windmill shall accrue Interest at the CP Rate.  Each Tranche shall be
in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in multiples thereof.  All Interest
accrued on the Loan Amount of Windmill during a Tranche Period shall be payable
by the Borrower on the last day of such Tranche Period. (2) At the Agent's
option, the Agent may notify the Borrower that the provisions of this subsection
(a)(2) shall apply to each Loan Amount of Windmill funded with Pooled Commercial
Paper issued after the Agent delivers a notice to the Borrower that it elects to
have the provisions of this clause (a)(2) to be applicable to the Loan Amount of
Windmill:  The Borrower shall pay Funding Charges with respect to Windmill's
Loan Interest for each day that any Loan Amount in respect of such Loan Interest
is outstanding.  Each such Loan Interest will accrue Funding Charges each day
based on the Pooled Allocation.  On each Settlement Date the Borrower shall pay
to the Agent (for the benefit of Windmill) an aggregate amount equal to all
accrued and unpaid Funding Charges in respect of such Loan Interest for the
immediately preceding Interest Period; (3) Each Loan Amount of the Committed
Lenders shall be allocated to one or more Tranches reflecting the Interest Rates
at which such Loan Amount accrues Interest and the Tranche Periods for which
such Interest Rates apply.  In each request for a Loan from a Committed Lender
and three Business Days before the expiration of any Tranche Period applicable
to any Committed Lender's Loan Amount, the Borrower may request the Tranche
Period(s) to be applicable to such Loan Amount and the Interest Rate(s)
applicable thereto.  Each Loan Amount of the Committed Lenders may accrue
Interest at either the Eurodollar Rate or the Prime Rate, in all cases as
established for each Tranche Period applicable to such Loan Amount.  Each
Tranche shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in multiples thereof
or, in the case of Interest accruing at the Prime Rate, in any amount that
otherwise has not been allocated to another Tranche Period.  Any Loan Amount of
the Committed Lenders not allocated to a Tranche Period shall be a Prime
Tranche.  During the pendency of a Termination Event, the Agent may reallocate
any outstanding Loans of the Committed Lenders to a Prime Tranche.  All Interest
accrued on the Loan Amount of the Committed Lenders during a Tranche Period
shall be payable by the Borrower on the last day of such Tranche Period or, for
a Eurodollar Tranche with a Tranche Period of more than three months, 90 days
after the commencement, and on the last day, of such Tranche Period.

     (b)  The Agent shall allocate the Investment of Windmill to Tranche Periods
in its sole discretion.  If, by the time required in Section 2.3(a), the
Borrower fails to select an Interest Rate or Tranche Period for any Loan Amount
of the Committed Lenders, such Loans shall automatically accrue Interest at the
Prime Rate for a three Business Day Tranche Period.  Any Loans purchased from
Windmill pursuant to Article III hereof shall accrue interest at the Prime Rate
and have an initial Tranche Period of three Business Days.

     (c)  If the Agent or any Committed Lender determines (i) that maintenance
of any Eurodollar Tranche would violate any applicable law or regulation, (ii)
that deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund any of such
Lender's Eurodollar Tranches are not available or (iii) that the maintenance of
any Eurodollar Tranche will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost of such
Lender of funding Eurodollar Tranches, then the Agent, upon the direction of
such Lender, shall suspend the availability of, and terminate any outstanding,
Eurodollar Tranche so affected.  All Loans allocated to any such terminated
Eurodollar Tranche shall be reallocated to a Prime Rate Tranche.

     (j)  Exhibit C, Exhibit G, Exhibit H to the Loan Agreement are each amended
in their entirety to be and to read as set forth on Annex I hereto.

                                    PURCHASE PRICE

     4.1  Purchase Price.  The aggregate purchase price for the Transferred
Assets shall be Three Hundred Ten Million Dollars ($310,000,000) (the "Purchase
Price"), subject to any adjustment as provided for in Section 4.3 and Section
7.12, and the assumption by the Buyer of the Assumed Liabilities.

     4.2  Payment at Closing.  At the Closing, the Buyer shall wire transfer the
Purchase Price, to the Seller and/or the Seller Subsidiaries as may be
designated in writing to the Buyer by the Seller prior to the Closing, in
immediately available funds to a bank account or bank accounts designated by the
Seller in writing prior to the Closing.

     4.3  Adjustment to Purchase Price.

     (a)  Following the Closing Date, the Seller, with review by and assistance
from the Buyer, shall prepare or cause to be prepared, at its sole expense, a
balance sheet of the Business dated as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Balance
Sheet") setting forth the net book value of the Transferred Assets and the
Assumed Liabilities as of the Closing Date (the "Final Net Assets") determined
in accordance with the Seller's Accounting Principles except as set forth on the
Corresponding Schedule.  The Seller shall deliver the Closing Balance Sheet to
the Buyer within 90 days after the Closing.

     (b)  The Buyer and its representatives, at the Buyer's sole expense, shall
have the right to observe the work performed by the Seller or its
representatives in connection with the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet
and shall have the right to examine and make copies of the work papers used in
connection with the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet; provided, however,
that to the extent such work papers are prepared by outside independent
auditors, the Buyer shall have the right to examine, but not make copies of,
such work papers, unless otherwise permitted by applicable accounting standards.

     (c)  The Buyer shall have 30 days after the delivery of the Closing Balance
Sheet to review the Closing Balance Sheet.  If within said 30-day period, the
Buyer notifies the Seller in writing that it is unwilling to accept any item(s)
on the Closing Balance Sheet, specifically identifying the item(s) and amount(s)
in dispute and the basis for such dispute, the Parties shall use their
reasonable efforts to reach agreement within the 30 days following the delivery
of the Buyer's notice of dispute, or such longer period as may be agreed upon by
the Parties, with respect to such disputed item(s).  Any items on the Closing
Balance Sheet not identified in writing as a disputed item within the foregoing
30-day period as provided above shall be deemed to have been accepted by the
Buyer and not subject to any further review or change.

     (d)  If the Parties fail to reach a mutually agreeable determination with
respect to the Closing Balance Sheet within the foregoing 30-day period, or such
longer period as may have been agreed upon, the disputed item(s) shall be
submitted to a partner having relevant expertise and practicing at the Detroit,
Michigan office of PriceWaterhouseCoopers LLP (the "Independent Accountant") for
resolution.  The Independent Accountant's determination shall be made using the
Seller's Accounting Principles, shall be final and binding on both Parties, and
judgment on such determination may be entered in any court having jurisdiction,
in accordance with Section 23.14.  The costs and expenses of the Independent
Accountant will be paid by the Party against whom the disputed item(s) are
resolved, or shall be prorated between the Parties by the Independent Accountant
to the extent disputed item(s) are resolved in favor of each Party based on
their relative degree of success and shall be paid promptly following the
Settlement Date.

     (e)  The resolution of any disputed item(s) shall be combined with the
undisputed items from the Closing Balance Sheet to re-calculate the Closing
Balance Sheet.  The Parties shall request that such determination by the
Independent Accountant be resolved as promptly as possible.

     (f)  Upon the later of the expiration of the 30-day period referred to
above, during which time the Buyer may notify the Seller of any disputed item(s)
in the Closing Balance Sheet, or, in the event the Buyer provides the Seller
with written notice of disputed item(s) in accordance with the foregoing, the
final determination of such disputed item(s), either by agreement of the Parties
or a final determination by the Independent Accountant (the "Settlement Date"),
the Parties shall make the adjustments, if any, to the Purchase Price provided
for in subsections (g) and (h) below.  Between the Closing Date and the
Settlement Date, the Buyer shall, during regular business hours, afford the
Seller and its representatives reasonable access to all relevant books, records,
correspondence, files, financial statements, operating data, and all other
information with respect to the Business, and shall provide to the Seller and
its representatives such operating and financial data and any other information
with respect to the Business as it or they may from time to time reasonably
request for the purpose(s) of preparing the Closing Balance Sheet and resolving
any disputed item(s).  The Buyer shall cause the personnel of the Buyer to
perform those measures as are reasonably necessary to prepare the Closing
Balance Sheet.  The Seller and its representatives shall be provided with
offices at the Business and telephones, facilities, office equipment and
miscellaneous office supplies, as the Seller reasonably requests subsequent to
the Closing Date until the Settlement Date.  The Buyer shall make reasonably
available during regular business hours the appropriate officers and employees
of the Business after the Closing for purposes of the Seller or its
representatives interviewing the same in connection with the preparation of the
Closing Balance Sheet and resolving any disputed item(s).  During the 30-day
period following the initial delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet to the Buyer
by the Seller, the Seller shall make reasonably available during regular
business hours its relevant officers and employees to address questions
regarding the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet.

     (g)  If the Final Net Assets exceed $62,058,000, the Buyer shall pay to the
Seller within three business days following the Settlement Date the amount of
the excess, with interest (net of applicable withholding, if any) on such amount
calculated at the Prime Rate accruing from the Closing Date through the
Settlement Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account
designated in writing to the Buyer by the Seller.

     (h)  If the Final Net Assets are less than $62,058,000, the Seller shall
pay to the Buyer within three business days following the Settlement Date the
amount of the deficit, with interest (net of applicable withholding, if any) on
such amount calculated at the Prime Rate accruing from the Closing Date through
the Settlement Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an
account designated in writing to the Seller by the Buyer.

     (i)  The Parties agree and acknowledge that the Closing Balance Sheet shall
be prepared solely for the purpose of determining the value of the Final Net
Assets of the Business and the final Purchase Price to be paid to the Seller
and/or the Seller Subsidiaries, and that such valuations do not reflect or
indicate the price to be paid for any, or any class or category, of the
Transferred Assets.

     4.4  Allocation of the Purchase Price.  The Buyer and the Seller shall use
their reasonable efforts to agree upon an allocation of the Purchase Price to
the Transferred Assets, including an allocation by country in which such
Transferred Assets are located, prior to the Closing and, in the event that such
allocation is not agreed upon prior to the Closing, after the Closing Date.  In
the event that the Buyer and the Seller do not agree upon such allocation prior
to the date which is sixty (60) days prior to the date upon which the U.S.
federal tax return reflecting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is
due (assuming that the due date for the filing of such tax return is extended as
may be permitted by applicable law), the allocation shall be submitted to, and
determined by, a partner having relevant expertise and practicing at the
Detroit, Michigan office of the Independent Accountant for resolution.  The
Independent Accountant's determination shall be final and binding upon the
Parties and such allocation shall be used for all purposes, including
preparation and filing of Internal Revenue Service Form 8594 and any other
domestic or any foreign income tax returns with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby, and no Party hereto shall take or assert any position
inconsistent therewith.  The Buyer and the Seller shall cooperate in connection
with the preparation, execution and filing with the Internal Revenue Service of
all necessary information returns required by Section 1060 of the Tax Code and
comparable provisions under applicable foreign law relating to the allocation of
the consideration for the Transferred Assets.  The Buyer and the Seller shall
each bear one-half of any expenses of the Independent Accountant incurred in
connection with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.4.

     4.5  Prorations of Property Taxes.  At the Closing, all real and personal
property taxes ("Property Taxes") which are past due or have become due upon any
of the Transferred Assets before the Closing Date will be paid by the Seller,
together with any penalty or interest thereon, or, at the Seller's option,
credit for such amount will be given to the Buyer against the Purchase Price.
Current Property Taxes including, without limitation, installments of special
assessments, will be prorated and adjusted between the Buyer and the Seller as
of the Closing Date on a basis consistent with local custom taking into account
whether such Property Taxes are paid in advance or in arrears.  If current tax
bills are unavailable at the Closing Date, the prior year's tax bills will be
used for proration purposes.

                                      ARTICLE 5

     (i)  Maintain their books, accounts and records with respect to the
Business and the Transferred Assets in the usual, regular and ordinary manner,

the Buyer or, in the event that any such warranty or vendor's indemnification
agreement is not available to the Buyer, will cooperate with the Buyer in any
reasonable arrangement to provide the Buyer with the benefit of any such
warranties to the extent they cannot be transferred to the Buyer; provided,
however, that the Seller shall not be required to incur any liability or out of

     7.8  Transitional Use of Trade Names, Trademarks and Logos.  The Buyer and
the Seller recognize that certain Inventory and labels and containers therefor,
as well as promotional material relating to the Division, being sold to the
Buyer under this Agreement may bear the trade names "Eaton Corporation" or
"Eaton," and may bear logos or marks associated therewith, which trade names,
logos and marks are not being assigned or licensed to the Buyer.  The Seller
agrees that the Buyer shall be permitted to sell such Inventory and use such
labels, containers and promotional material for a period not exceeding six
months after the Closing Date; provided, however, that internal storage and
material handling containers that bear such trade names, logos or marks and that

Closing Date, neither the Seller nor any of the Seller Subsidiaries or any of
their respective officers, directors, agents or employees will initiate or
solicit proposals or conduct negotiations for the sale, transfer or other
disposition of the Division with any prospective purchasers other than the
Buyer; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 7.9 shall
prohibit the Board of Directors of the Seller from furnishing information to or
entering into discussions or negotiations with, any Person that makes an
unsolicited bona fide proposal in writing to acquire all or a substantial
portion of the assets or issued and outstanding stock of the Seller, it being
expressly understood that the Division does not represent a substantial portion
of the assets of the Seller, if, and only to the extent that, the Board of
Directors of the Seller determines in good faith upon written advice from
outside counsel to the Seller that such action is required for the Board of
Directors to comply with its fiduciary duties to shareholders of the Seller
imposed by law and, provided, further, that the Seller shall enter into a
confidentiality agreement with any such Person with respect to confidential
information related to the Division.

     7.10 Update of Schedules.  The Seller shall promptly notify the Buyer,
prior to the Closing Date, of any changes in the information contained in the
Corresponding Schedules or Corresponding Exhibits or in any document or
information supplied to the Buyer pursuant to a Corresponding Schedule.  Such
information shall be deemed to amend such Corresponding Schedules, and, to the
extent the amendment to the Corresponding Schedule does not result in a Material
Adverse Effect, shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement.

     7.11 Covenant Not to Compete.  The Seller agrees that for a period of five
years after the Closing Date, neither it, the Seller Subsidiaries, nor any
Affiliate shall, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, join, control or
participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of any business
whether in corporate, proprietorship or partnership form or otherwise as more
than a five percent owner in such business where such business is engaged in the
design, manufacture and marketing of Specified Products for use in
transportation applications other than aerospace and marine transportation
applications; provided, however, that in no event shall the Seller, the Seller's
Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates be prohibited from the manufacture,
design or sale of a component of a Specified Product, other than an Integral
Component, or a replacement for a component of a Specified Product, other than
an Integral Component, and, provided further, that in no event shall the Seller,
the Seller Subsidiaries or their Affiliates be prohibited from purchasing or
otherwise acquiring any entity which derives less than fifteen percent of its
annual consolidated gross sales revenue and less than $100 million of its annual
consolidated gross sales revenue (in each case as determined based on such
entity's most recent fiscal year end prior to such acquisition) from the sale of
Specified Products for use in transportation applications other than aerospace
and marine transportation applications.  In the event that the Seller, the
Seller Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates acquires an entity which derives
greater than fifteen percent of its annual consolidated gross sales revenue or
greater than $100 million of its annual consolidated gross sales revenue from
the sale of Specified Products for use in transportation applications other than
aerospace and marine transportation applications, such entity or entities shall,
for a period of three months after such acquisition, give the Buyer a right of
first offer to buy the portion of the acquired business which violates the
provisions of this Section 7.11 and, in the event that the parties are unable to
agree on an appropriate price and terms for such sale within such three month
period, then the entity or entities making such acquisition shall sell the
portion of the business which violates the provisions of this Section 7.11
within fifteen months after the expiration of the period during which the Buyer
had a right of first offer and shall provide the Buyer with notice of such
disposition.  The Seller specifically acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at
law for any breach of this Section 7.11 will be inadequate and that the Buyer,
in addition to any other relief available to it, shall be entitled to temporary
and permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damage.
In the event that the provisions of this Section 7.11 should ever be deemed to
exceed the limitation provided by applicable law, then the Parties agree that
such provisions shall be reformed to set forth the maximum limitations
permitted.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Agreement, there shall be no limitation, either express or implied, on the right
of the Seller or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates to design, manufacture
and sell hydraulic systems and related components other than (i) hydraulic fan
drive systems wherein the vehicle power steering pump drives both the fan motor
and the power steering assist actuator, and (ii) hydraulic fan drive systems

clutches, (B) fan drives, (c) fans, (D) water pumps, (E) water pump impellers,
(F) MR fluid fan drive devices, (G) hydraulic fan drive systems wherein the

by the Division as of the Closing Date for manufacture by the Division, in each
case for any of the products or systems used in engine cooling systems set forth
in items (A) through (I) of the immediately preceding sentence.

     7.12 ESACO Joint Venture Interest.

     (a)  In accordance with Article 16(b) of the Joint Venture Contract (the
"Joint Venture Contract"), dated April 23, 1998, between Eaton (China) and
Ningbo Shenglong Group Co., Ltd. (" Shenglong Group"), the Seller shall or shall
cause Eaton (China) to provide all required notices to Shenglong Group that
Eaton (China) has agreed to sell its 70% interest in ESACO (the " ESACO
Interest") to the Buyer for US $6,300,000 and will comply with all other
applicable provisions of the Joint Venture Contract.  In the event that
Shenglong Group does not exercise its right of first refusal with respect to
Eaton (China's) interest in ESACO and consents to the contemplated transfer, the
Seller shall or shall cause Eaton (China) to seek the consent of the Ningbo
Municipality Foreign Economic Relations & Trade Commission (the "Approval
Authority") to the contemplated transfer.

     (b)  If on or prior to the Closing Date, (i) the Shenglong Group has not
provided a written waiver of its right to exercise its right of first refusal
option and consented to the transfer of Eaton (China)'s interest in ESACO, and
(ii) the consent of the Approval Authority to the contemplated transfer of ESACO
has not been obtained (in any event an "ESACO Default"), the ESACO Interest
shall be excluded from the Transferred Assets and the Purchase Price shall be
reduced by US $6,300,000.

     (c)  In the event of an ESACO Default, the Seller and the Seller
Subsidiaries, together with the Buyer, will continue to use their respective
reasonable efforts to obtain the consent and wavier of the Shenglong Group and
the consent of the Approval Authority with respect to the transfer of the ESACO
Interest and the assignment of all related contracts and agreements to the
Buyer.  The transfer of the ESACO Interest (the "ESACO Closing") shall take
place at such time and place as the Buyer and the Seller shall mutually agree
following the receipt of the required consents and waivers but in no event later
than thirty days following the receipt of the consent of the Approval Authority
to the contemplated transfer; provided, however, that the Buyer may terminate
its obligation to buy the ESACO Interest from the Seller at any time after the
date which is the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date.  At the ESACO Closing,
in consideration of the Seller's assignment of the ESACO Interest, the Buyer
shall deliver to the Seller or Eaton (China), as instructed by the Seller in
writing, US $6,300,000 by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a bank
account or bank accounts designated in writing by the Seller.  Until such time
as the ESACO Closing shall be consummated, the Seller and the Buyer shall enter
into appropriate agreements that (i) permit the Seller or an Affiliate of the
Seller, as the case may be, to provide to ESACO the required technology and
other matters to be provided by the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller, as the
case may be, under the Joint Venture Contract and related contracts entered into
pursuant to the Joint Venture Contract, and (ii) provide the Buyer with the
economic benefit or burden, as the case may be, of the results of operations of
ESACO, including, without limitation, distributions, fees and other payments
otherwise due to the Seller pursuant to Joint Venture Contract and related
agreements, and the same control over ESACO exercised by the Seller prior to the
Closing, subject to the consent of the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller, as
the case may be, in the event that the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller
would incur any liability or costs related to ESACO after the Closing Date,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Such agreement or
agreements shall commence on the Closing Date and terminate upon the earliest to
occur of the transfer of Eaton (China's) interest in ESACO to the Buyer, the
Buyer's termination of its obligation to buy the ESACO Interest from the Seller
after the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, or the termination of the Joint
Venture Contract and related contracts entered into pursuant to the Joint
Venture Contract; provided, however, that in the event that the Buyer terminates
its obligation to purchase the ESACO Interest from the Seller after the fifth
anniversary of the Closing Date, the agreements described in clause (i) above
shall continue until the termination of the Joint Venture Contract and related
contracts entered into pursuant to the Joint Venture Contract.

     7.14 Execution of Agreement by Seller Subsidiaries.  The Seller covenants
and agrees that it shall use its best efforts to obtain signatures to this
Agreement from an appropriate officer of each Seller Subsidiary within 30 days
after the date hereof.  The Buyer and each Buyer Subsidiary hereby acknowledge
and agree that the failure of any Seller Subsidiary to execute this Agreement as

constitute a breach of this Agreement by the Seller or any Seller Subsidiary or
limit the enforceability of this Agreement against the Buyer and each Buyer
Subsidiary.

orderly transfer as of the Closing Date of the assets and/or joint venture
interests and Assumed Liabilities of the Business held or attributable to
operations outside of the United States of America.  The Local Agreements shall
not alter in any material respect the economic or other substantive terms of the
transactions set forth in this Agreement or any Related Agreement and shall be
subordinate to and consistent in all respects therewith (it being understood and
acknowledged by the Parties that this Agreement is the "global" or "master"
agreement for the transfer by the Seller of the Business to the Buyer).  The
Local Agreements will conform to the customs and requirements of local practice
and laws in the jurisdictions where the transfers contemplated by the Local
Agreements are to be effected.  To the extent that any other performance or
obligation covered by this Agreement is delegated or assigned to the respective
Subsidiaries or Affiliates of either Party, the Party assigning/delegating shall
cause its respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates to do all acts and execute such
instruments and agreements as shall be required to carry out such performance in
a valid and binding manner; provided, however, that the covenants contained
within this Section 9.6 shall not relieve the Parties of being primarily liable
hereunder for any performance or obligation so delegated or assigned.

     9.7  Guarantee of Performance.

     (a)  The Buyer hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the
Seller the full, faithful and prompt performance by the Buyer Subsidiaries of
all obligations, when due, which are, by this Agreement, obligations of (i) the
Buyer Subsidiaries or (ii) the Buyer, but which have been assigned or
transferred to the Buyer Subsidiaries, whether such obligations are in the
nature of the payment of money, the providing of services or otherwise ("Buyer
Obligations").  The obligations of the Buyer hereunder are direct and primary
and shall not be discharged until all of the Buyer Obligations have been
discharged by the Buyer Subsidiaries or the Buyer, and such obligations of the
Buyer hereunder shall not be discharged, released or affected by any bankruptcy,
insolvency, dissolution, liquidation, reorganization or similar circumstances of
or relating to the Buyer Subsidiaries.

     (b)  The Seller hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the
Buyer the full, faithful and prompt performance by the Seller Subsidiaries of
all obligations, when due, which are, by this Agreement, obligation of (i) the
Seller Subsidiaries or (ii) the Seller, but which have been assigned or
transferred to the Seller Subsidiaries, whether such obligations are in the
nature of the payment of money, the providing of services or otherwise ("Seller
Obligations").  The obligations of the Seller hereunder are direct and primary
and shall not be discharged until all of the Seller Obligations have been
discharged by the Seller Subsidiaries or the Seller, and such obligations of the
Seller hereunder shall not be discharged, released or affected by any
bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution, liquidation, reorganization or similar
circumstances of or relating to the Seller Subsidiaries.

     9.8  Warranty Obligations; Product Liability Claims.

     (a)  After the Closing, the Buyer shall honor, for products manufactured
and sold by the Seller or any of the Seller Subsidiaries prior to the Closing
Date in the conduct of the Business, those warranty claims made in accordance
with warranties given by the Seller or any of the Seller Subsidiaries to
customers of the Division; provided, however, that in the event that any such
warranty claims are expected to exceed, either individually or in the aggregate,
$250,000 in any one calendar year, the repair or replacement of the product
under warranty or payment of such warranty claim must be approved in advance by
the Seller.  The Buyer shall make available for inspection by the Seller upon
reasonable notice all records relating to the need for such work, the cost of
performing such work and the applicability of the Division's warranties to such
warranty work.  The Buyer shall promptly notify the Seller in writing of any
warranty claim or warranty claims which the Buyer expects, in good faith, to
cost more than $100,000, either individually or in the aggregate with other
claims for the same product, in any one calendar year.  If the Seller does not
respond in writing to the Buyer within 30 days after receipt of such
notification, such claim shall be considered to be approved by the Seller for
purposes of this Section 9.8.  If the Seller denies liability for such warranty
claim, the Buyer may determine to honor or deny such claim without prejudicing
any of its rights or obligations hereunder.

     (b)  Product liability claims for which the Seller may be liable pursuant
to Section 3.2 shall be treated as Third Party Claims subject to the procedures
set forth in Section 19.5 regarding the assumption and conduct of the defense of
such claims by the Seller.

     9.9  Environmental Agreement.  The Parties will cooperate in good faith
promptly upon the signing of this Agreement to carry out and complete the
Compliance Audits and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments provided by the
Environmental Agreement appended as the Corresponding Exhibit to this Section
9.9 (the "Environmental Agreement").  Upon completion of such Audits and
Assessments, the results will be placed on the lists to be included in Schedule
A and Schedule B to the Environmental Agreement in accordance with the terms of
the Environmental Agreement.  Unless otherwise defined in this Agreement,
capitalized terms used in this Agreement and defined in the Environmental
Agreement shall have the meanings given them in the Environmental Agreement.

                                      ARTICLE 10

                           EMPLOYEES AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

10.1 Employment.  Except for the Division Employees who are both employed by the
Seller's Brazilian Subsidiary and identified on the Corresponding Schedule as
retained employees, all of the Division Employees, including the Inactive
Employees, shall be offered immediate employment at the Closing with the Buyer
or a Buyer Subsidiary (so that no period of unemployment shall occur between
employment with the Seller or a Seller Subsidiary prior to the Closing Date) and
employment with the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary on and after the Closing Date.
Inactive Employees who, at the Closing,  have rights to return to employment
under the Seller's or a Seller Subsidiary's policies will be listed on a
schedule to be provided by the Seller to the Buyer on the Closing Date.  The
Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary shall make each Division Employee an offer of
employment at the same current base hourly rate of pay or current base monthly
salary, as applicable, that was in effect for such employee immediately prior to
the Closing Date.  With respect to the Inactive Employees, the Buyer shall make
an offer of employment subject to the terms and conditions under which the
Seller or a Seller Subsidiary approved the absence or leave.  The Division
Employees who accept Buyer's offer of employment and become immediately employed
on an uninterrupted transferred basis by the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary as of
the Closing shall be hereinafter referred to as "Transferred Employees."

10.2 Severance.

     (a)  The Corresponding Schedule identifies or sets forth a description of
the Seller's severance obligations, plans, programs and/or policies as related
to the Division Employees of the Business (the "Severance Plans").  Effective as
of the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Buyer with a list of all
Transferred Employees located in the United States and the benefit such
individual would be entitled to if employment is terminated as of the Closing
Date (the "Severance Plan Amount"). The Seller shall retain all liabilities,
responsibilities and obligations for severance payments or other separation
benefits to which any Division Employee may be or become entitled or claim to be
entitled to under such Severance Plans as a result of the Buyer's acquisition of
the Business, including, without limitation, any such claim by a Division
Employee because his employment with the Seller or a Seller Subsidiary ceases as
a result of the Buyer's acquisition of the Business or by a Transferred Employee
because of the transfer of his employment from the Seller or a Seller Subsidiary
to the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary (a "Severance Claim"), provided however that
the Buyer agrees to reimburse Seller up to $100,000.00 of Seller's expense
and/or costs with respect to the Severance Claims (in the aggregate).

     (b)  Effective as of the Closing Date, the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary will
establish a severance plan for Transferred Employees located in the United
States which shall be substantially similar to the Transitional Income Plan (the
"TIP") provided to the Seller's representatives on July 7, 1999.  For purposes
of TIP, a Transferred Employee's service with the Seller shall be counted as
"Continuous Service" under the TIP. The Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary agrees that
the benefit that a Transferred Employee will receive from TIP (including the
state unemployment amount) if such individual's employment is terminated by the
Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary within five (5) years of the Closing Date shall be
no less than the Severance Plan Amount. The Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary shall be
responsible for any severance claim made by a Transferred Employee because of or
relating to any action(s) or inactions taken or not taken by the Buyer or a
Buyer Subsidiary on or after the Closing Date, including termination of a
Transferred Employee's employment with the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary and the
level of benefits provided under the TIP (a "Transferred Employee's TIP
Claim").
The Buyer agrees that over and above the reimbursement obligation described in
Section 10.2(a) above, it shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and the
Seller Subsidiaries from and against any and all expenses, liabilities,
obligations and costs of any sort associated with a Transferred Employee's TIP
Claim.

     10.3 Welfare Benefit Plans.

     (a)  Buyer Welfare Benefit Plans.  The Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary shall
establish, effective as of the Closing Date, employee welfare benefit plans
which shall provide the Transferred Employees including Inactive Employees (and
their eligible dependent(s)) with the opportunity for health, medical, dental,
vision, life insurance and disability coverages (the "Buyer's Welfare Benefit
Plans").  The Buyer's Welfare Benefit Plans will provide for benefits which, at
the discretion of the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary, will either be substantially
similar to, but not necessarily the same as, those presently offered to the
Transferred Employees including the Inactive Employees (and their eligible
dependent(s)) by the Seller or a Seller Subsidiary, or provide for benefits
substantially similar to, but not necessarily the same as, those offered by the
Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary to its active and inactive salaried employees as
described in the "Summary of Current Benefits" provided to the Seller's
representative on June 29, 1999 (the "Benefit Summary") or a combination of the
above two alternatives.  Coverage shall be provided to the Transferred Employees
including Inactive Employees (and their eligible dependent(s)) without (i)
evidence of insurability if such individual(s) was covered under a similar
Seller's Welfare Benefit Plan (as such term is defined hereinafter), and (ii)
application of any pre-existing physical or mental condition restrictions other
than any such restrictions that are in effect for such individual immediately
prior to the Closing Date under the Seller's Welfare Benefit Plans or as set
forth in Section 10.3(d) below.  The Buyer's Welfare Benefit Plans will provide
that Transferred Employees including Inactive Employees shall receive credit for
years of service with the Seller or a Seller Subsidiary (and shall recognize
original hire dates therewith) prior to the Closing Date for all purposes under
the Buyer's Welfare Benefit Plans.

     (b)  Retiree Welfare Benefit Plans.

          (i)  Individuals who were employed in the United States by the Seller
     or a Seller Subsidiary in the conduct of the Business prior to the Closing
     Date and who retired from employment prior to the Closing Date or who are
     on long term disability status in the United States with the Division prior
     to the Closing Date (the "Division U.S. Retirees") are presently provided
     with the opportunity to be covered under certain medical and group life
     insurance plans of the Seller (the "Seller's Retiree Plans").  The Division
     U.S. Retirees and their dependents and/or qualified beneficiaries who are
     covered under the Seller's Retiree Plans as of the Closing Date are
     hereinafter referred to as the "Existing Retiree Welfare Plan
     Participants."  The Seller's Retiree Plans also provide such post-retire-
ment coverage for Division Employees employed in the United States
     who, after satisfying the applicable requirements thereunder, will become
     eligible for such coverage based upon future retirement (the "Future
     Retiree Welfare Plan Participants"). The Existing Retiree Welfare Plan
     Participants and the Future Retiree Welfare Participants shall be
     collectively referred to hereinafter as "Seller's Retiree Welfare Plan
     Participants").

          (ii) The Seller's Retiree Plans covering the Seller's Retiree Welfare
     Plan Participants are listed in the Corresponding Schedule.  Prior to the
     Closing, the Seller will provide the Buyer with a true and correct copy of
     all of the provisions of the Seller's Retiree Plans and a copy of all
     actuarial statements and financial documents which set forth the
     calculation of the Seller's post-retirement benefit liability under the
     Seller's Retiree Plans for the Seller's Retiree Welfare Plan Participants
     and the Division Employees pursuant to FASB 106.  The Seller has informed
     the Buyer that the post-retirement benefit obligations of the Seller's
     Retiree Plans, accrued under FASB 106, with respect to the Existing Retiree
     Welfare Plan Participants is $4,977,400 million as of January 1, 1998 (the
     "Existing Retiree Welfare Plan Participant Liability ").  The Seller has
     further informed the Buyer that the post-retirement benefit obligations of
     the Seller's Retiree Plans accrued under FASB 106 with respect to the
     Division Employees who are or may be eligible to become Future Retiree
     Welfare Plan Participants is $5,177,000 million as of January 1, 1998 (the
     "Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participant Liability ").

          (iii)     The $4,977,400 million liability and the $5,177,000 million
     liability shall collectively be known as the "Post-Retirement Liability."
     Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the Seller shall
     provide the Buyer and its actuary with access to the actuary of the Seller
     and all documentation with respect to computing the Existing Retiree
     Welfare Plan Participant Liability and the Future Retiree Welfare Plan
     Participant Liability.  Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date the
     Buyer's actuary and the Seller's actuary shall jointly determine the change
     in the Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participant Liability as of the Closing
     Date (the "Final Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participant Liability") using
     the assumptions used by the Seller to compute the Existing Retiree Welfare
     Plan Participant Liability.  If the Final Future Retiree Welfare Plan
     Participant Liability exceeds the Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participant
     Liability by $275,000.00 or more, the excess of such liability over
     $275,000.00 shall be an adjustment decrease to the Purchase Price.

          (iv) The Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary shall establish effective as of
     the Closing Date, medical and  group life insurance plans covering the
     Transferred Employees located in the United States who, after satisfying
     the applicable requirements thereunder, will become eligible for such
     coverage based upon future retirement (the "Buyer's Future Retiree Welfare
     Plan Participants") for claims incurred on and after the Closing Date (the
     "Buyer's Retiree Plans").  The Buyer has provided the Seller with a true
     and correct copy of the existing summary plan description of the Buyer's
     Retiree Plans and, prior to the Closing Date, the Buyer will provide the
     Seller with a true and correct copy of all the provisions of the Buyer's
     Retiree Plans. The Buyer's Retiree Plans will provide for benefits which,
     at the discretion of the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary, will be substantially
     similar to, but not necessarily the same as, those presently offered to the
     Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participants under the Seller's Retiree Plans
     or provide for benefits substantially similar to, but not necessarily the
     same as, those offered by the Buyer to its eligible retirees (for this
     purpose, the Buyer's existing retiree welfare benefit programs for
     employees hired before January 1, 1995 shall be deemed to be the relevant
     programs and the medical benefits provided to the eligible retirees of
     Buyer currently are the same as the medical benefits provided to eligible
     retirees as described in the Benefit Summary); provided however, that;

          (A)  From the Closing Date and until the fifth anniversary of the day
     before the Closing Date (the "Five Year Post Closing Period") the
     contribution required to be paid by any Buyer's Future Retiree Welfare Plan
     Participant for any post-retirement welfare benefit coverage provided under
     the Buyer's Retiree Plans shall not be increased at a rate greater than the
     increases, if any, made applicable to other eligible retirees of Buyer (for
     this purpose, the Buyer's existing retiree welfare benefit programs for
     employees hired before January 1, 1995 shall be deemed to be the relevant
     programs).

          (B)  For purposes of post-retirement life insurance coverage, the
     benefits provided to any Future Eligible Retiree (as defined below) who
     terminates from employment with the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary in a
     Qualifying Retirement (as defined below) shall be of the type currently
     provided under the Seller's Retiree Plans; and

          (C)  For purposes of  this Subsection 10.3(b) and for purposes of the
     Buyer's Retiree Plans, a Buyer's Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participant's
     service, the attainment of any specific age prior to retirement, the
     retirement date and the contribution level shall be determined by
     aggregating the individual's service and employment with the Seller, a
     Seller's Subsidiary, the Buyer and/or a Buyer Subsidiary.

          (v)  Buyer agrees that, notwithstanding Buyer's Retiree Plans existing
     age 60/15 years of service requirement or any other eligibility requirement
     in effect under the Buyer's Retiree Plans, any Future Eligible Retiree (as
     defined below) who terminates from employment with the Buyer or a Buyer
     Subsidiary in a Qualifying Retirement (as defined below) shall be deemed
     eligible for post-retirement welfare benefits under the Buyer's Retiree
     Plans.  "Qualifying Retirement" means any termination of employment with
     the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary on or after the Closing Date; provided,
     however, that for an individual who, at the time of such termination, has
     neither

          (A)  Attained age sixty-five (65); nor

          (B)  Both attained at least age fifty-five (55) and completed at least
     ten (10) years of service, the individual will not experience a Qualifying
     Retirement unless his termination of employment from the Buyer or a Buyer
     Subsidiary is involuntary.

     The term "Future Eligible Retiree" means a Transferred Employee located in
     the United States who both:

          (A)  terminates employment with the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary on or
     after the Closing Date; and

          (B)  either (1) as of the Closing Date, either has attained age
sixty-five (65) or both has attained age fifty (50) and has completed at least
     ten (10) years of service or (2) during the Five Year Post-Closing Period
     and prior to termination of employment from the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary
     either attains age sixty-five (65) or both attains age fifty (50) and has
     completed at least ten (10) years of service.

          (vi) In the event that a Buyer's Future Retiree Welfare Plan
     Participant terminates from employment with the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary
     prior to attaining age fifty-five (55) and is, nevertheless, eligible for
     retiree welfare benefit coverage under the Buyer's Retiree Plans because of
     the Buyer's agreement to extend such eligibility under Section 10.3(b)(v)
     (i.e., eligibility due to involuntary termination of the Buyer's Future
     Retiree Welfare Plan Participant after attainment of age fifty (50) with at
     least ten (10) years of service, but prior to attainment of age fifty-five
     (55)), the Seller agrees to reimburse the Buyer for fifty-percent (50%) of
     the increase in the "accumulated postretirement benefit obligation" (as
     determined by the Buyer's actuaries in a manner consistent with FASB 106)
     that is directly triggered by such involuntary termination prior to age
     fifty-five (55)).  Reimbursement under the preceding sentence shall not be
     required unless and until the Seller receives from the Buyer information
     that is reasonably satisfactory to the Seller as to the circumstances of
     the involuntary termination and the actuarial determination described in
     the preceding sentence.  Seller shall pay the determined amount to Buyer
     within sixty (60) days after notification by Buyer to Seller.

          (vii)     The Buyer's and the Buyer Subsidiary's obligations hereunder
     with respect to post-retirement medical benefits coverage for the Buyer's
     Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participants shall not prevent the Buyer's
     Retiree Plans from coordinating pre-Medicare benefits such that Buyer's
     Retiree Plans may claim to be secondary to medical benefits coverage
     provided to a Buyer's Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participant as an active
     employee with another future employer or another future employer's retiree
     medical plans.

          (viii)    The Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary will assume effective as of
     the Closing Date, all of the obligations, responsibilities and liabilities
     of  the Seller under the Seller's Retiree Plans to provide medical, and
     life coverage for claims incurred on and after the Closing Date to the
     Buyer's Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participants.  The Buyer will indemnify
     the Seller with regard to any claim incurred on or after the Closing Date
     by a Buyer's Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participant relating to its
     agreements under this Section 10.3(b) or to any change made by the Buyer or
     a Buyer Subsidiary to the Buyers' Retiree Plans.

     (c)  Persons Not Covered Under the Buyer Welfare Benefit Plans.  Neither
the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary shall provide coverage for, nor shall the Buyer
or a Buyer Subsidiary have any obligations or liabilities with respect to,
welfare benefit plan coverages or COBRA continuation coverage for:

     (i)Former employees (and their eligible dependent(s)) who were employed by
     the Seller or a Seller Subsidiary at any time prior to the Closing, but who
     on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date were not employed by the
     Seller or a Seller Subsidiary,

     (ii) Division Employees (and their eligible dependent(s)) covered under any
     health, medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability (including
     salary continuation) plan and/or related welfare benefit plan of the Seller
     or a Seller Subsidiary (the "Seller's Welfare Benefit Plans") for claims
     incurred prior to 12:01 a.m. (Cleveland, Ohio local time) on the Closing
     Date,

     (iii)Long term disability benefits payable with respect to any disability
     of a Division Employee which commenced prior to the Closing Date provided
     such employee does not return to active work with the Buyer or a Buyer
     Subsidiary; and

     (iv) Existing Retiree Welfare Plan Participants.

     (d)  Claims Under The Seller's Welfare Benefit Plans. The Seller shall
retain all the obligations and liabilities of any kind arising under or related
to claims under its Seller's Welfare Benefit Plans based on charges for covered
expenses incurred:

     (i)  By the persons described in subsection (c)(i), (c)(ii), (c)(iii) and
     (c)(iv) above, and

     (ii) By a Transferred Employee prior to becoming a Buyer's Future Retiree
Welfare Plan Participant (and his/her eligible dependent(s)), who incurs a
claim(s) relating to hospital charges (excluding physician fees) after the
Closing Date as a result of an injury or sickness that was treated within twelve
(12) months prior to the Closing Date (a "Pre-Existing Condition").  The Seller
shall retain the obligations and liabilities related to such Pre-Existing
Condition claim of such an individual until the earlier of (A) the Pre-Existing
Condition no longer exists, or (B) January 1, 2001, and, provided that, the
individual is not confined for the Pre-Existing Condition on January 1, 2001.

     (e)  Welfare Plan Transitional Arrangements.  The Buyer agrees that, to the
extent to which a Transferred Employee, and his/her dependents or a Buyer's
Future Retiree Welfare Plan Participant has satisfied in whole or in part a
deductible amount for calendar year 1999 under any Seller's Welfare Benefit Plan
or has paid any out of pocket expenses pursuant to any Seller's Welfare Benefit
Plan, such amount shall be counted toward the satisfaction of any applicable
calendar year 1999 deductible or out of pocket expense maximum respectively,
under any like Buyer's Welfare Benefit Plan.  The Buyer further agrees that, if
it determines that it will utilize the Seller's administrative services under
the Transitional Agreement for administering the Buyer's Welfare Benefit Plans
(which option is available to the Buyer for a period of up to six (6) months and
shall be on a complete cost pass-through basis) then, for the period of time
that such plans are administered by the Seller, the Buyer's Welfare Benefit
Plans will be identical to Seller's Welfare Benefit Plans.

     10.4 Pension Plan.

     (a)  Buyer Pension Plan. The Buyer presently is the sponsor of the Borg-
Warner Automotive, Inc. Retirement Plan (the "Buyer's Pension Plan") which plan
is a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Tax Code and under the
applicable provisions of ERISA.  Assets of the Buyer's Pension Plan are held in
trust under the Borg-Warner Automotive, Inc. Benefit Plans Investment Trust (the
"Buyer's Pension Trust") with The Northern Trust Company (the "Buyer's Pension
Plan Trustee") a trust qualified under Section 501(a) of the Tax Code.  As soon
as practicable after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall amend the Buyer's Pension
Plan by adding a Supplement (the "Buyer's Supplement") which shall be effective
as of the Closing Date, but subject to receipt by the Buyer's Pension Trust of
the Initial Transfer Amount in accordance with Section 10.4(c)(v)(B).  Such
Buyer's Supplement shall cover those Transferred Employees, including the
Inactive Employees, who immediately prior to the Closing Date, are eligible to
participate under Appendix A of the Pension Plan for Eaton Corporation Employees
("Seller's U.S. Pension Plan"), hereinafter referred to as (the "Transferred
Employee Participants").  Such Buyer's Supplement shall:

     (i)  Contain provisions which are the same in all meaningful respects as
the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan provisions as in effect as of the Closing Date
including, without limitation, provisions regarding credited service,
eligibility and vesting service, compensation, computation of benefit levels,
eligibility for a benefit and the form and timing of a benefit distribution,
early retirement opportunities and subsidies and shall provide that credited
service, eligibility and vesting service, compensation and other benefit factors
(other than actuarial factors which may change in accordance with applicable
law) under the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan shall be recognized as credited
service, other service, compensation and other benefit factors (other than
actuarial factors which may change in accordance with applicable law) under the
Buyer's Supplement;

          (ii) Freeze all credited service for benefit accrual purposes
     effective as of  the Closing Date for all Transferred Employee Participants
     who have not attained age fifty-five (55) as of the Closing Date;

          (iii)     Subject to the completion of the transfer under Section
     10.4(c)(v)(F) below, provide for a transfer of the Seller Accrued Benefit
     Value (as defined in Section 10.4(b)(i)(B)(2) below) of any Transferred
     Employee Participant who has not attained age fifty-five (55) as of the
     Closing Date who so elects (pursuant to the existing notice and election
     requirements under the Buyer's Pension Plan (the "Buyer Election
     Requirements")) from the Buyer's Pension Plan to an individual account
     under the Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan (as such term is defined
     hereinafter), as described in Section 10.4(b)(i)(B)(2); and

          (iv) Subject to the completion of the transfer under Section
     10.4(c)(v)(F) below, provide for an additional amount for each Transferred
     Employee identified in Section 10.4(a)(iii) above (the "Transitional
     Service Benefit"), which amount shall be determined separately for each
     such Transferred Employee and transferred to an individual account under
     the Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan subject to the requirements of the Tax
     Code and ERISA.  The actual dollar amount of each such Transferred
     Employee's Transitional Service Benefit shall be determined pursuant to
     Section 10.4(b)(ii) below.

The Buyer shall provide the Seller with a copy of the proposed Buyer's
Supplement at least fifteen (15) consecutive calendar days prior to the Closing
Date.  Within fifteen (15) consecutive calendar days of the receipt by the
Seller of the proposed Buyer's Supplement, the Seller shall provide the Buyer
with comments and corrections with respect to the proposed Buyer's Supplement
and, thereafter, will cooperate with the Buyer so as to reach agreement that the
Buyer's Supplement satisfies the requirements of this Section 10.4.  If the
Seller and Buyer cannot reach the agreement contemplated under the preceding
sentence within fifteen (15) days following the Buyer's receipt of the Seller's
comments and corrections, the points of disagreement shall be submitted to the
Seller's actuary and the Buyer's actuary who, within fifteen (15) days of
receipt of such points of disagreement, shall jointly resolve the remaining
issues.

     (b)  Buyer's Obligations with Respect to Transferred Employee Participants.

     (i)  The Buyer will take the following action effective as of Closing Date
conditioned upon the completion of the corresponding transfer of assets to the
Buyer's Pension Trust in accordance with Section 10.4(c), with respect to the
Transferred Employee Participants under the Buyer's Pension Plan:

     (A)  For those Transferred Employee Participants who have attained age
fifty-five (55) or older as of the Closing Date, the Buyer Supplement will
provide continuing benefit accrual through participation in the Buyer's Pension
Plan effective as of the Closing Date with accrual of credited service,
compensation and benefits under the provisions of the Buyer's Supplement for all
service after the Closing Date with the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary, consistent
with all the requirements of Section 10.4(a)(i) above.  Notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Agreement, the Buyer hereby agrees that the Buyer's
Pension Plan, including the Buyer's Supplement, shall not be amended, terminated
or suspended in any way with respect to the Transferred Employee Participants
who have attained age fifty-five (55) as of the Closing Date, which effectively
decreases the total amount of benefits (including all subsidies) to be provided
under the Buyer's Supplement for any such Transferred Employee Participant
except that the provisions of this Section 10.4(b)(i)(A):  (1) shall not require
the continuation of credited service for benefit accrual purposes (as opposed to
service for any other purpose such as eligibility for early retirement
opportunities and subsidies) after the end of the Five Year Post Closing Period;
(2) shall not prevent the Buyer from adopting or changing actuarial factors to
the extent permitted under applicable law and universally applicable to
participants under the Buyer's Pension Plan; and (3) shall not apply to changes
required by law or regulation to ensure continued compliance with the Tax Code
and/or ERISA.

     (B)  For all of the Transferred Employee Participants who have not attained
age fifty-five (55) as of the Closing Date who have their credited service for
benefit accrual purposes frozen under the Buyer's Supplement as of the Closing
Date, the Buyer will offer such Transferred Employee Participants the following
options:

          (1)  To continue participation in the benefits provided under the
     Buyer's Supplement consistent with all the requirements of Sections
     10.4(a)(i) and (ii) above, including, without limitation, the continuing
     ability to satisfy the applicable age/service requirements for early
     retirement opportunities and subsidies during employment with the Buyer
     and/or a Buyer Subsidiary from and after the Closing Date, except that (1)
     no such Transferred Employee Participant shall be required to be provided
     with any credited service (under the benefit formula) after the Closing
     Date; (2) no compensation increases are required to be recognized after the
     Closing Date;  and (3) the provisions of this Section 10.4(b)(i)(B)(1)
     shall not apply to changes required by law or regulation to ensure
     continued compliance with the Tax Code and/or ERISA; or

          (2)  Subject to the requirements of the Tax Code and ERISA, to
     transfer the Seller Accrued Benefit Value and the Transitional Service
     Benefit from the Buyer's Pension Plan to an individual account under the
     Buyer's Retirement Savings Plans, subject to compliance with the Buyer
     Election Requirements.  For purposes of this Section 10.4, the term "Seller
     Accrued Benefit Value" for any individual properly electing this option of
     Section 10.4(b)(i)(B)(2) means the sum of the individual's Initial Deferred
     Liability Amount, as defined in Section 10.4(c)(ii)(B) (as adjusted
     pursuant to Section 10.4(c)(iv)), and the individual's Additional Rollover
     Liability Amount as defined in Section 10.4(c)(v)(C).

          (ii) For each Transferred Employee Participant eligible for the
     transfers described in Section 10.4(b)(i)(B)(2) above, the Buyer's actuary
     shall determine the individual's Transitional Service Benefit pursuant to
     the methodology and assumptions described on the Corresponding Schedule,
     subject to approval by the Seller's actuary as described below.  Within
     (20) consecutive calendar days of the receipt by the Buyer's actuary from
     the Seller or the Seller's actuary of the information necessary to compute
     the individual Transitional Service Benefit, the Buyer's actuary shall
     provide the Seller's actuary with a proposed schedule of such individual
     Transitional Service Benefit together with the work papers used to compute
     the amounts.  If the Seller's actuary shall dispute the correctness of such
     schedule, it shall notify the Seller, the Buyer and the Buyer's actuary in
     writing fifteen (15) consecutive calendar days following receipt of the
     proposed schedule as to the specifics of the dispute.  The Seller and the
     Buyer shall attempt to reach an agreement as to the specific amounts within
     ten (10) consecutive calendar days following notification of such
     disagreement (the "TSB Resolution Period").  If the dispute still exists at
     the expiration of the TSB Resolution Period, it shall then be submitted to
     an impartial actuarial firm (to be jointly selected by the Buyer's actuary
     and the Seller's actuary) within seven (7) consecutive calendar days
     following the end of the TSB Resolution Period.  The third party actuarial
     firm shall be promptly supplied all relevant information and shall make a
     decision on the dispute within fifteen (15) consecutive days following
     receipt of the notice of dispute.

          (iii)     The Buyer will provide the Seller as soon as practicable
     following the Closing Date with the names of those Transferred Employee
     Participants who have properly elected to have their Seller Accrued Benefit
     Value as of the Closing Date transferred to the Buyer's Retirement Savings
     Plan.

          (iv) Not later than sixty (60) consecutive calendar days immediately
     following the Buyer's receipt of the Seller's approval as to the Buyer's
     Supplement to Buyer's Pension Plan, the Buyer shall or shall cause the
     Buyer Subsidiaries to apply for a determination by the Internal Revenue
     Service ("IRS") that Buyer's Pension Plan (as amended pursuant to Section
     10.4(a)) and Buyer's Pension Trust qualify under Sections 401(a) and
     501(a), respectively, of the Tax Code.  The Buyer further agrees to act
     immediately to revise and/or amend the Buyer's Pension Plan as may be
     required by the IRS for the purpose of obtaining such qualification and
     shall provide Seller with such required revisions and/or amendments.
     Copies of the IRS filing by the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary shall be
     furnished by the Buyer to the Seller when first made and a copy of the
     determination letter shall be furnished by the Buyer to the Seller within a
     reasonable period of time following the receipt of such letter by the Buyer
     or a Buyer Subsidiary.

          (v)  The Buyer and the Seller acknowledge that the initial transfer of
     assets and liabilities respectively from the separate trust account for
     Seller's U.S. Pension Plan which exists under Seller's master pension
     trust, as established through Mellon Bank N.A. (the "Seller's U.S. Pension
     Trust") and the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan to the Buyer's Pension Trust and
     the Buyer's Pension Plan, as provided for in Section 10.4(c)(v)(B), may
     occur prior to the Buyer's receipt of a favorable determination letter from
     the IRS with respect to the further tax qualification of the Buyer's
     Pension Plan and the Buyer's Pension Trust pursuant to Section 401(a) and
     Section 501 (a) respectively of the Tax Code.  Accordingly, the Buyer
     hereby represents and warrants that the Buyer's Pension Plan and the
     Buyer's Pension Trust, as established and maintained by the Buyer, will
     receive such favorable determination letter, effective retroactively to the
     Closing Date, and the Buyer agrees to indemnify the Seller for any
     liabilities which the Seller may incur as a result of such transfer of
     assets and/or liabilities to the Buyer's Pension Trust or the Buyer's
     Pension Plan, respectively, if the IRS determines that the Buyer's Pension
     Plan or the Buyer's Pension Trust are not tax-qualified.

     (c)  Seller's Obligations with Respect to the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan
and the Transferred Employee Participants.  The Seller will take the following
action with respect to the Transferred Employee Participants:

          (i)  Seller shall not amend Appendix A of the Seller's U.S. Pension
     Plan in any manner specific to the Transferred Employee Participants
     between the date of the execution of this Agreement and the Closing Date,
     except as may be required by law or regulation to ensure continued
     compliance with the Tax Code and ERISA.

          (ii) Prior to or as of the Closing Date, the Seller shall instruct the
     actuaries for the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan to compute the Seller's U.S.
     Pension Plan initial liability for all Transferred Employee Participants on
     the following basis:

          (A)  For each Transferred Employee Participant who has attained age
     fifty-five (55) or older as of the Closing Date, the liability shall be
     determined on a Projected Benefit Obligation ("PBO") basis including the
     early retirement supplements and recognition of post-Closing Date
     compensation.  The PBO is the projected benefit obligation as defined in
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87.  The PBO shall be
     determined using the actuarial methods and assumptions adopted by the
     Seller for the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan for purposes of the measurements
     required for the Seller's annual financial statements, as of the
     measurement date coincident with or immediately preceding the Closing Date,
     except for the following:

     (1)  The discount rate shall be the reported yield of the Merrill Lynch
AAA-AA Corporate Bond Index (15+ years) as of the last day of the month
coincident with or preceding the Closing Date, such rate being rounded to the
nearest one-quarter percent.

     (2)  The assumed annual rate of increase for salaries and the social
security wage base shall be increased (decreased) by the same amount as the
discount rate in (1) is higher (lower) than the discount rate used for purposes
of such annual financial statements.

     The amounts determined under this Section 10.4(c)(ii)(A) shall be referred
     to as the "Ongoing Liability Amount."

     (B)  For each Transferred Employee Participant who has not attained age
     fifty-five (55) or older as of the Closing Date, the liability shall be
     determined on an Accrued Benefit Obligation ("ABO") basis including the
     early retirement supplements, but without recognition of post-Closing
     compensation.  The ABO is the accumulated benefit obligation as defined in
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87.  The ABO shall be
     determined using the actuarial methods and assumptions adopted by the
     Seller for the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan for purposes of the measurements
     required for the Seller's annual financial statements, as of the
     measurement date coincident with or immediately preceding the Closing Date,
     except that the discount rate shall be the reported yield of the Merrill
     Lynch AAA-AA Corporate Bond Index (15+ years) as of the last day of the
     month coincident with or preceding the Closing Date, such rate being
     rounded to the nearest one-quarter percent.  The amounts determined under
     this Section 10.4(c)(ii)(B) shall be referred to as the "Initial Deferred
     Liability Amount."

     (iii)     As soon as practicable after the Closing Date but not more than
fifteen (15) consecutive calendar days following the Closing Date, the Seller
shall estimate the Ongoing Liability Amount and the Initial Deferred Liability
Amount (the "Estimated Initial Transfer Amount") as defined above and direct the
Trustee of the Seller's U.S. Pension Trust on the Closing Date to treat and
account for that amount in the Seller's U.S. Pension Trust as if it were
invested in a Short Term Investment Fund from the Closing Date.

     (iv) As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, but not more than
ninety (90) consecutive calendar days following the Closing Date, the Seller's
actuary shall inform the Seller, the Buyer and the Buyer's actuary of the
Ongoing Liability Amount and the Initial Deferred Liability Amount
(collectively, the "Initial Transfer Amount"),  and provide the Buyer's actuary
with the work papers used to compute the amounts.  If the Buyer's actuary shall
dispute the correctness of the Initial Transfer Amount it shall notify the
Buyer, the Seller and the Seller's actuary in writing within fifteen (15)
consecutive calendar days following its receipt of the computation of the
Initial Transfer Amount as to the specifics of the dispute.  The Buyer and the
Seller shall attempt to reach an agreement as to the specific amount within ten
(10) consecutive calendar days following notification of such disagreement (the
"ITA Resolution Period").  If Buyer fails to submit such list of points of
disagreement with respect to such actuarial computations within such ten (10)
consecutive calendar days, the Initial Transfer Amount and actuarial
computations shall be deemed accepted by the Buyer.  If the dispute still
exists, it shall then be submitted to an impartial third party actuarial firm
(to be jointly selected by the Buyer's actuary and the Seller's actuary) within
seven (7) consecutive calendar days following the end of the ITA Resolution
Period.  The third party actuarial firm shall make a decision on the dispute
within fifteen (15) consecutive calendar days following its receipt of notice of
such dispute, and determine if any additional amounts are due to Buyer's Pension
Plan (the "Additional Initial Transfer Amount").

     (v)  The Estimated Initial Transfer Amount shall be accounted for and
adjusted as follows:

     (A)  As of and after the Closing Date, but prior to the Initial Asset
Transfer Date as defined in Subsection 10.4(c)(v)(B) below, the Seller shall
direct the trustee of the Seller's U.S. Pension Trust to deduct benefits due
under the Buyer's Pension Plan and Supplement from the Estimated Initial
Transfer Amount to, or on behalf of, any Transferred Employee Participant who
becomes entitled thereto under the Buyer's Pension Plan during such period, with
such payments to be made in accordance with instructions furnished by the Buyer
to the Seller from time to time; subject, however, to Seller's reasonable audit
and approval of the proper computation of such benefit.

     (B)  If the Initial Transfer Amount and/or the Additional Initial Transfer
Amount is greater or less than the Estimated Initial Transfer Amount, the Seller
shall direct the trustee as soon as practicable, but not more than ten (10)
consecutive calendar days following the final determination of such amounts to
account for a corresponding adjustment to the Initial Estimated Transfer Amount
with interest from the Closing Date.  As soon as practicable, but not more than
fifteen (15) consecutive calendar days following the final determination of the
Initial Transfer Amount and (if any) the Additional Initial Transfer Amount,
such amounts shall then be transferred to the Buyer's Pension Trust by wire
transfer, with the Estimated Initial Transfer Amount to be adjusted to reflect
such transfer.

     (C)  Upon receipt of the information from the Buyer pursuant to Section
10.4(b)(iii), the Seller shall instruct the actuaries for the Seller's U.S.
Pension Plan to compute the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan additional liability for
each of the individual Transferred Employee Participants who elect to transfer
their Seller Accrued Benefit Value as of the Closing Date to the Buyer's
Retirement Savings Plan pursuant to Section 10.4(b)(i)(B)(2) using the
methodology and assumptions described on the Corresponding Schedule.  The
amounts determined under this Section 10.4(c)(v)(C) shall be referred to as the
"Additional Rollover Liability." As soon as practicable , but not more than
fifteen (15) consecutive calendar days after the Additional Rollover Liability
Amount is determined, the Seller shall direct the trustee to account for a
corresponding adjustment (i.e., addition) to the Initial Estimated Transfer
Amount with interest, from the Closing Date.

     (D)  In the event that the transfer of the Initial Transfer Amount,
Additional Transfer Amount (if any) and Additional Rollover Liability Amount,
combined, is not sufficient to satisfy the requirements of Section 414(1) of the
Tax Code, an additional amount shall be added to the Estimated Initial Transfer
Amount in the amount necessary to, in combination with such other amounts,
satisfy such requirements.  For purposes of determining the liability under
Section 414(1) of the Tax Code, the Seller's actuary shall determine such
liability using the assumptions used by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation
to determine sufficiency with respect to plan terminations occurring on the
Closing Date.  The Seller or the Seller's actuary shall provide the Buyer with
such information as is reasonably requested by the Buyer to complete its filing
obligations with the IRS concerning the transfers described in this Section
10.4(c)(v).

     (E)  The Estimated Initial Transfer Amount Account shall be decreased by
the amount of any benefit payments due and made to or on behalf of any
Transferred Employee Participants identified in Subsection 10.4(c)(v)(A) above
from the Seller's U.S. Pension Trust during the period between the Closing Date
and the Final Asset Transfer Date (as defined below), and any other
disbursements  on a prorated basis, including any applicable fees and expenses,
which have been charged to Seller's U.S. Pension Trust, provided, however, that
no fees and expenses incurred by the Seller's U.S. Pension Trust with respect to
the undertakings of this Section 10.4 shall be charged to any transfer amount.

     (F)  Within ten (10) consecutive calendar days after the Seller has
received from the Buyer both the information required to be provided under
Section 10.4(b)(ii) and (iii); and the copy of the favorable IRS determination
letter relating to the Buyer's Pension Plan and the Buyer's Supplement
(including those provisions consistent with the transfer of the Seller Accrued
Benefit Value and the Transitional Service Benefit), the Seller will instruct
the trustee of the Seller's U.S. Pension Trust to perform a final accounting and
reconciliation of the Estimated Initial Transfer Amount, as added to and
subtracted from pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.4(c)
(v).
As soon as practicable, but not more than ten (10) consecutive calendar days,
after receipt of such final accounting and reconciliation, the resultant net
amount shall be transferred (with interest credited through a date preceding the
transfer by no more than ten (10) consecutive calendar days) by wire transfer
from the Seller's U.S. Pension Trust to the Buyer's Pension Trust to complete
the pension plan transfers contemplated under this Section 10.4 (the "Final
Asset Transfer Date").

     (d)  Assumption of Liabilities and Obligations.  The Buyer agrees that upon
receipt of the amounts set forth in Section 10.4(c)(v)(B) and (F), respectively,
by the Buyer's Pension Plan Trustee, the Buyer will assume the corresponding
liabilities and obligations of the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan with respect to
the Transferred Employee Participants and the Seller, the Seller's Subsidiaries,
the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan, and their respective agents shall be completely
discharged of any and all obligations and liabilities with respect to the
pension benefits accrued as of the Closing Date by the Transferred Employee
Participants under the Seller's U.S. Pension Plan.

     (e)  Cooperation.  The Seller and the Buyer understand that the
undertakings set forth in this Section 10.4 require extensive cooperation among
the parties and that each party will make every good faith effort to complete
the matters within the time periods set forth herein.   Further, Buyer and
Seller agree that:

     (i)  Any written communication to the Division Employees prior to the
Closing Date by either party concerning this Section 10.4 shall be submitted for
review by the other party at least two (2) days prior to release to the Division
Employees, and

     (ii) Upon receipt of HSR Act approval, representatives of Buyer will be
allowed on the Division's U.S. premises to jointly, with the Seller's
representatives, communicate with Division Employees concerning the subject
matter set forth in Sections 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6, subject to the Seller's
reasonable requirements and restrictions.

     (f)  In the event that all or some portion of the one-time transfer of the
Transitional Service Benefits from the Buyer's Pension Plan, as contemplated
under Section 10.4(b)(i)(B)(2), cannot be effected prior to or within five (5)
consecutive calendar days after the Final Asset Transfer Date, due to any legal
constraint (including, without limitation, the Tax Code and ERISA), the Buyer
shall, within fifteen (15) consecutive calendar days after being made aware of
such constraint, provide the Seller with one or more proposals that would
provide the affected Transferred Employee Participants with additional transfers
from the Buyer's Pension Plan or contributions under the Buyer's Retirement
Savings Plan so as to provide them with an actuarially equivalent value not less
than the value of the Transitional Service Benefit (or portion thereof) that is
not transferred under Section 10.4(b)(i)(B)(2), with actuarial equivalence
determined using the same actuarial assumptions as were used in determining the
Transitional Service Benefit ("Equivalent Value").  The Seller may reject any
proposal that is not reasonably satisfactory to the Seller based upon the advice
of the Seller's actuaries as to Equivalent Value.  If all of the Buyer proposals
are rejected as described above, the Buyer must submit one or more additional
proposals until such time as a proposal is found to be reasonably satisfactory
by the Seller under the foregoing.  In no event may the Buyer refuse to provide
the affected Transferred Employee Participants with Equivalent Value.

     10.5 Disposition of U.S. Investment Plan Responsibilities.  The Seller
shall retain all liability and responsibility for the disposition of accounts of
the Transferred Employees including the Inactive Employees (the "Investment Plan
Participants") who are participants in the Eaton Corporation Share Purchase and
Investment Plan ("Seller's Investment Plan") on the Closing Date.  Each such
Investment Plan Participant shall have his full interest in his account,
including without limitation all Company matching contributions (which shall be
fully vested, including any contribution made pursuant to the terms of Seller's
Investment Plan for 1999) and any earnings thereon, allocated and/or distributed
on his behalf as soon as practicable after the Closing Date.  Such allocation
and distribution shall be governed by the provisions of the Seller's Investment
Plan which are applicable to cessation of employment with the Seller on the
Closing Date for reasons other than retirement, disability or death, and in
connection with the divestiture of a facility and shall be in accordance with
the administrative procedures and practices which have been established by the
Seller with respect to such allocation and/or distribution.  Subject to the Tax
Code and ERISA with respect to any such Investment Plan Participant who has an
outstanding loan under the Seller's Investment Plan (pursuant to Article IX
thereof) as of the Closing Date, at the option of the Investment Plan
Participant, the portion of the Investment Plan Participant's account which is
eligible for rollover, including the loan shall be transferred in kind (together
with a cash transfer of the Investment Plan Participant's other account
balances) to the Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan and shall be continued and
administered under the Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan.

     10.6 Buyer/Buyer Subsidiary Retirement Savings Plan(s).

     (a)  As of the Closing Date and within ninety (90) days thereafter, the
Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary shall establish one or more defined contribution
plan(s) to cover the Transferred Employee Participants who will become
participants in such Plan pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.4(b) (the
"Transferred Retirement Savings Plan Participants") or shall include such group
of employees in currently established defined contribution plans (collectively
the "Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan").  The Buyer has provided the Seller with
a true and correct copy of the existing summary plan description of the Buyer's
Retirement Savings Plan and, prior to the Closing Date, the Buyer will provide
the Seller with a true and correct copy of all of the provisions of the Buyer's
Retirement Savings Plan.

     (b)  The Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan shall provide the Transferred
Retirement Savings Plan Participants as of the Closing Date, with:  (i) a
contribution to an account (the "Company Retirement Account") based on a
percentage of the Transferred Retirement Savings Plan Participant's compensation
(the "Buyer Base Contribution"); (ii) the opportunity to elect to make pre-tax
payroll reduction contributions ("Elective Deferral Contributions "); (iii) a
matching contribution to an account (the "Employee Retirement Account") based on
a portion of the particular Transferred Retirement Savings Plan Participants's
Elective Deferral Contributions (the "Matching Contribution"); and (iv) the
one-time Transitional Service Benefit subject to Section 10.4(f) above.  The
Buyer's
Retirement Savings Plan shall provide the Transferred Retirement Savings Plan
Participants with credit for service with the Seller or a Seller Subsidiary for
purposes of eligibility for participation in the Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan
and vesting in all contributions and amounts under the Buyer's Retirement
Savings Plan on behalf of any Transferred Retirement Savings Plan Participant,
but not for purposes of determining the amount of the Transitional Service
Benefit or for purposes of vesting in such Transitional Service Benefit.

     (c)  The Buyer shall take all actions as reasonably necessary to complete
the enrollment process for Transferred Retirement Savings Plan Participants so
that all such Transferred Retirement Savings Plan Participants will be able to
commence participation in the Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan, including
Elective Deferral Contributions, on the Closing Date, provided, however, that
any access to and all opportunities to communicate with the Transferred
Employees prior to the Closing Date shall be subject to the provisions of
Section 10.4(e).

     (d)  Subject to Section 10.6(f) below, the Transitional Service Benefit
shall not be subject to any additional terms and/or conditions, including,
without limitation, terms and/or conditions relating to the profitability of the
Buyer and/or the Buyer Subsidiaries or the individual Transferred Retirement
Savings Plan Participant's level of hours of service or employment status.  Any
payment or transfer required to be made by the Buyer under Section 10.4(b)
and/or Section 10.4(f) representing the Transitional Service Benefit shall not
be subject to Section 19.3 or 19.9 and shall be disregarded entirely in applying
such sections.

     (e)  Subject to the Buyer's Election Requirements, the amount to be
transferred pursuant to Subsection 10.4(a)(iii) above, to the Buyer's Retirement
Savings Plan from the Buyer's Pension Plan on behalf of individual Transferred
Retirement Savings Plan Participants shall be placed in a sub-account in the
Company Retirement Account established for such Participant.  The transfer of
such amount shall occur as soon as practicable, but not more than fifteen (15)
consecutive calendar days following the Seller's transfer of the Seller Accrued
Benefit Value pursuant to Subsection 10.4(c)(v)(F).  That amount shall be fully
vested and non-withdrawable and subject to the Buyer's Election Requirements and
provisions of the Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan.

     (f)  Subject to the Buyer's Election Requirements and Section 10.4(f), the
Transitional Service Benefit shall be placed in a sub-account in the Company
Retirement Account.  That amount will be subject to five (5) year cliff vesting
(counting only service with Buyer or Buyer's Subsidiary), be non-withdrawable
and subject to the provisions of Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan provided,
however, that if a Transferred Employee Savings Plan Participant with an account
under this Subsection 10.6(f) is terminated by Buyer or Buyer's Subsidiary
involuntarily without cause prior to being fully vested, such Transferred
Employee Savings Plan Participant shall be fully vested in  the subaccount
created for purposes of holding the Transitional Service Benefit.

     (g)  Not later than one hundred-eighty (180) consecutive calendar days
immediately following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall apply for a
determination by the IRS that Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan as applicable to
Transferred Retirement Savings Plan Participants and any related trusts qualify
under Sections 401(a) and 501(a), respectively, of the Tax Code.  The Buyer
agrees to act reasonably, promptly to revise and/or amend the Buyer's Retirement
Savings Plan as may be required by the IRS for the purpose of obtaining any such
qualification.  Copies of such filings by the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary (with
appropriate deletions of confidential information not relevant to Seller's
concern for the Transferred Employees) shall be furnished by the Buyer to the
Seller when first made, and a copy of the  IRS determination letter shall be
furnished by the Buyer to the Seller within a reasonable period of time
following the receipt of each such letter and acceptances by the Buyer or a
Buyer Subsidiary.

     (h)  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Buyer
hereby agrees that, through the fifth anniversary of the day before the Closing
Date, Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan shall not be terminated or suspended with
respect to coverage thereunder of the Transferred Retirement Savings Plan
Participants, nor shall any amendment of the Buyer's Retirement Savings Plan be
made which contradicts this Section 10.6 or otherwise effectively reduces or
eliminates the total value of benefits to be provided under such Plan for any
Transferred Retirement Savings Plan Participant during such five (5) year
period, or the amount or percentage of the Employer Base Contribution, except as
may be required by the applicable governmental agency or by law or regulation to
ensure continued compliance with the Tax Code or ERISA.

     10.7 1999 Incentive Compensation.  The Corresponding Schedule identifies or
sets forth a description of the cash incentive compensation and/or cash bonuses
related to the Transferred Employees for 1999 (paid 2000) under the Seller's or
the Seller Subsidiary's plans, policies, programs or arrangements immediately
prior to the Closing Date.  The Buyer shall be responsible for and pay to the
Transferred Employees the incentive/bonus amount based on targets reached for
the calendar year (the "1999 Bonus Amount") for the entire 1999 calendar year.
The 1999 Bonus Amount payable by the Buyer shall not be eligible for deferral.
For calendar year 2000 Transferred Employees shall be afforded the opportunity
to participate in incentive/bonus plans which are offered by the Buyer or a
Buyer Subsidiary to employees of the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary with the same
job rating or classification.

     10.8 Employment Claims.

     (a)  Claims Filed Prior to Closing Date. Seller shall be responsible and
liable for any claim, complaint, charge or lawsuit filed prior to the Closing
Date which alleges a violation of any federal, state, county, local or
governmental law, decree, ordinance or regulation applicable to an act or
omission of Seller or the Seller Subsidiaries pertaining to employment,
employment practices or labor relations.

     (b)  Claims Filed On or After the Closing Date.  The Buyer or a Buyer
Subsidiary shall be responsible and liable for any claim, complaint, charge or
lawsuit filed on or after the Closing Date which alleges a violation of any
federal, state, county, local or other governmental law, decree, ordinance or
regulation applicable to an act or omission by the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary
pertaining to employment, employment practices or labor relations except that:

          (i)  For any claim, complaint, charge or lawsuit which is filed after
     the Closing Date by (A) an individual who was employed by Seller prior to
     the Closing Date, or by a person who was an applicant for employment with
     Seller (but was not hired) prior to the Closing Date, and (B) alleges a
     violation of a federal, state, county, local or other governmental law,
     decree, ordinance or regulation which pertains in part to an act or event
     that occurred prior to the Closing Date and relates to employment or
     employment practices, Seller shall be responsible and liable for any
     monetary damages that are part of a settlement or court order to the extent
     that such damages are attributable to the period prior to the Closing Date
     and all attorneys fees and court costs to the same proportional extent.
     Seller and Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary shall cooperate in good faith to
     develop strategies to minimize each party's potential exposure with respect
     to any such claims, complaints, charges or lawsuits.  Buyer or a Buyer
     Subsidiary shall not consent to any settlement of nor concede any issue
     regarding such claims, complaints, charges or lawsuits which affects Seller
     without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be
     unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed,

          (ii) For any unfair labor practice complaint filed within six months
     after the Closing Date with respect to an act or event occurring prior to
     the Closing Date, Seller shall be responsible and liable for any monetary
     damages that are part of a court order or Arbitrator's award to the extent

     develop strategies to minimize each party's potential exposure with respect
     to such complaints and/or claims, and

          (iii)     In the event that the matters contemplated by Section
     10.8(b)(i) or (ii) above occur, the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary will
     provide Seller with any information, material or documents which Seller
     shall request as part of its defense and Seller shall not consent to any
     settlement nor concede any issue in litigation or arbitration which affects
     Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary without the prior written consent of the Buyer,
     which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

     10.9 Worker's Compensation Claims and Worker's Occupational Diseases Claim.
Seller shall be responsible for the defense and, when it is adjudicated or
administratively determined, liable for any claim which may be asserted by any
Division Employee which arises under the occupational disease and disablement
statutes (or any similar statutes) and regulations thereof of the states or
countries where the facilities are located and is based on a reported injury
sustained solely while employed by Seller on or prior to the Closing Date.  The
Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary shall be responsible for the defense and, when it is
adjudicated or administratively determined, liable for any claim arising by a
Transferred Employee under the aforementioned occupational disease and
disablement statutes (or any similar statutes) and regulations thereof which is
based on a reported injury sustained solely on or after the Closing Date.  If a
claim is asserted on or after the Closing Date by a Transferred Employee under
the aforementioned occupational disease and disablement statutes (or any similar
statutes) and regulations thereunder and such claim alleges a reported injury
sustained in part before the Closing Date and in part on or after the Closing
Date, the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary shall be responsible for the defense of
such claim and if an award is adjudicated or administratively determined for
such Transferred Employee, Seller shall be liable for and pay to the Buyer or a
Buyer Subsidiary, that percentage of the award which is based on the time period
from the determined beginning date of the injury to the Closing Date over that
period of time from the determined beginning date to the date of the award.  If
such pro rata amount cannot be determined, the Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary and
Seller shall in good faith negotiate and agree upon the proration of the award,
which shall be in accord with the principles of the preceding sentence.

     10.10     Vacation Responsibilities.  The Buyer shall be liable,
responsible, and obligated for the payment of all vacation benefits, as
determined in accordance with the Seller's vacation practices in effect
immediately prior to the Closing Date for Division Employees, and which have not
been paid by the Seller prior to the Closing Date, to the Transferred Employees.
On and after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall provide each Transferred
Employee, on a going-forward basis, with an annual paid vacation entitlement at
least equal to the annual paid vacation entitlement available under the Seller's
vacation practices as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, based
upon the Transferred Employee's status and level of service with the Seller
and/or a Seller Subsidiary on such day; otherwise, the Buyer is free to adopt
vacation policies and entitlements as it sees fit.

     10.11     Other Agreements, Plans, Understandings and Practice.  Unless
otherwise specifically assumed by Buyer or a Buyer Subsidiary in the above
provisions of this Article 10, Seller shall retain any and all obligations or
liabilities with respect to any Seller agreement, plan, understanding or
practice which provided or promised a payment, benefit, contribution,
prerequisite or service to any Division Employee and shall indemnify and hold
Buyer and a Buyer Subsidiary harmless from and against all claims related
thereto.  Buyer and a Buyer Subsidiary shall jointly and severally indemnify and
hold Seller harmless from and against any and all claims related in any way to
any matter specifically assumed by Buyer and a Buyer Subsidiary in this Article
10 hereof.

     10.12     Foreign Employment Liabilities.  Except as otherwise provided on
the Corresponding Schedule or as may be provided in the Local Agreements
required by the customs and requirements of local practice and laws in the
jurisdictions where the transfers contemplated by the Local Agreements are to be
effected, the Buyer shall assume all liabilities of the Seller or the Seller
Subsidiaries, as the case may be, as an employer in the United Kingdom, Germany
and Brazil, including, without limitation, (i) any retirement, welfare or other
employee benefit obligation or liability with respect to employees or former
employees of the Seller or any of the Seller Subsidiaries which relates to
employment with the Division prior to the Closing Date or any plan or
arrangement maintained in connection therewith, (ii) liabilities for wages,
supplemental unemployment benefits, vacation benefits, severance benefits,
retirement benefits, other employee benefits, withholding taxes, workers'
compensation or other unemployment compensation premiums, hospitalization or
medical claims, occupational disease or disability claims, or other claims
attributable in whole or in part to employment by the Seller or the Seller
Subsidiaries with respect to the Division or arising out of any labor matter
related to the Division prior to the Closing Date, in each such case under
clauses (i) and (ii), whether relating to periods or events occurring before, on
or after the Closing Date.

     10.13  General.

     (a)  No Limitation on Buyer's Rights.  Except as otherwise provided in this
Article 10, this Article 10 shall not limit or impair the Buyer's or a Buyer
Subsidiary's rights to, in any form, amend, modify, alter or terminate any plan
or arrangement described in this Article 10.

     (b)  The liabilities of the Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries relating to
the subject matters of Section 10.7, 10.10 and 10.12 have been accounted for by
the Seller in a manner consistent with the Seller's accounting principles.

     (c)  No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  Neither the Buyer nor the Seller intend
that this Article 10 create any rights or interests, except as between the
Buyer, the Buyer Subsidiaries, the Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries, and no
present or future employees (or any dependents or beneficiaries of such
employees) of either Party, or any of their Affiliates (including the Buyer
Subsidiaries and the Seller Subsidiaries) will be treated or deemed as Third-
Party beneficiaries in or under this Agreement.

                             CERTAIN REAL ESTATE MATTERS

     11.1 Title Commitment; Title Policy.

     (a)  As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, the
Seller shall cause, (i) with respect to the Fletcher, North Carolina Facility,
Land America National Commercial Services - Lawyers Title or such other title
insurance company as may be reasonably acceptable to the Buyer (the "Title
Company") to issue and deliver its commitment for an ALTA extended form owner's
policy of title insurance (the "U.S. Title Policy"), together with two copies of
all recorded documents referred to therein committing the Title Company to issue
such policy at Closing, insuring the Buyer as the holder of a fee simple title
to the Fletcher, North Carolina Facility, and with the deletion of the so-called
standard permitted exceptions covering the Fletcher, North Carolina Facility,
subject only to the Real Property Permitted Exceptions in an amount equal to the
portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the Fletcher, North Carolina
Facility, and (ii) with respect to the Markdorf, Germany Facility, a certified
extract of the Markdorf land register (the "Markdorf Register Extract") pursuant
to which Eaton GmbH is the owner of the land on which the Markdorf, Germany
Facility is located and pursuant to which there are no encumbrances on such land
other than the Real Property Permitted Exceptions.  Prior to the Closing, the
Seller and the Buyer shall provide for the notarization of this Agreement by a
Swiss notary and Eaton GmbH shall grant (bewilligen) to HERKULES a priority
notice securing HERKULES' claim to transfer of title to the Markdorf, Germany
Facility (Auflassungsvormerkung) in a form reasonably satisfactory to German
counsel to the Buyer, and shall take such additional actions that in the
reasonable opinion of such German counsel are reasonably required or useful in
connection with the registration of such priority notice in the land register.

     (b)  Prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall engage a registered
surveyor or professional engineer approved by the Buyer to prepare a current
ALTA land title survey of the Fletcher, North Carolina Facility (the "Survey ")
in form sufficient to enable the Title Company from the U.S. Title Policy to
delete from the U.S. Title Policy the so-called standard exceptions except for
matters disclosed by the Survey.  In connection with the Markdorf, Germany
Facility, prior to the Closing Date the Seller will deliver to the Buyer a copy
of the filed "cadastral plan" (the "Cadastral Plan") for such property.

     (c)  Subject to Article 20, the cost and expense of the U.S. Title Policy,
the Markdorf Register Extract, the Cadastral Plan and any transfer or recording
fees or taxes, including any notarial fees or value added taxes, shall be shared
equally by the Seller and the Buyer.

     11.2 Objections.  The Buyer shall have 20 days after receipt of all of the
documents referred to in Section 11.1 to give the Seller written notice of any
objections to the conditions or exceptions shown thereon other than Real
Property Permitted Exceptions.  Failure to object to any additional condition or
exception within said period shall constitute an approval of such condition or
exception.  If the Buyer gives such notice, the Seller shall have the
obligation, prior to the Closing, to use their reasonable efforts to remedy or
remove the objectionable condition or exception, or to provide the Buyer with
evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer that such condition or exception
shall be removed or remedied prior to or concurrently with the Closing.  If the
Seller cannot so remedy or remove such condition or exception prior to or
concurrently with the Closing, the Buyer shall have the right to either waive
its objection to such condition or exception and proceed towards the Closing or
terminate this Agreement without liability.

     12.1 Seller Environmental Liabilities.  Subject to the terms of this

          (ii) those Non-Compliance Items either listed on Schedule A to the
     Environmental Agreement as a result of the Compliance Audit or as noticed
     by the Buyer to the Seller within six (6) months of the Closing,
     representing failure to comply with Environmental Laws applicable and in
     effect upon the Closing; and

     the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date or, in the event Seller decides

     Condition, Buyer reasonably disagrees and Seller does not predominately
     prevail on the central issues in an arbitration pursuant to the
     Environmental Agreement then not later than the tenth anniversary of the
     Closing Date, in which case Seller shall also remain liable with respect to
     that Identified Site Environmental Condition during the same 10-year period
     for incremental costs incurred by Buyer in the normal use and operation of
     a Facility, consistent with good commercial practice, as a result of
     Seller's decision not to conduct a Remedial Action.

     Condition includes the presence of Regulated Substances on other properties
     as a result of migration from the Owned Real Property.

not liabilities of the Seller hereunder, more particularly:

          (i)  costs and expense of operating and maintaining the Business and
     the Transferred Assets and, upon the ESACO Closing, the New ESACO Facility,
     on and after the Closing Date or the ESACO Closing, as the case may be,

penalties or other sanctions assessed or imposed for periods prior to the
Closing Date; (ii) any Identified Site Environmental Condition or other Site
Environmental Condition (A) noticed to Seller as a result of a Third-Party claim
within five (5) years of the Closing Date and for which Seller has completed an
adequate Remedial Action or (B) for which Seller and Buyer agrees no Remedial
Action is required and five (5) years have elapsed since the Closing Date; (iii)
any Identified Site Environmental Condition or other Site Environmental
Condition for which a Third Party Claim is noticed to Seller within five (5)
years of the Closing Date and for which Seller elects to implement no or some
Remedial Action, Buyer reasonably disagrees and Seller does not predominately
prevail on the central issues in an arbitration pursuant to the Environmental
Agreement, and ten (10) years have elapsed since the Closing Date; (iv) any
other Site Environmental Condition for which Buyer does not receive a Claim from
a Third Party and notify Seller by not later than the fifth anniversary of the

defend and hold harmless the Buyer and the Buyer Subsidiaries and their
respective shareholders, officers, and directors from and against any
liabilities, costs, damages, penalties, fines, claims, judgments or proceedings,
including reasonable attorneys' fees (collectively, "Environmental Damages"),
that arise from a Seller's Environmental Responsibility.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Seller shall not be liable to and shall not indemnify any party
or otherwise be responsible for any Environmental Damages under this Article 12
to the extent the same are caused, contributed to, or exacerbated by the
post-Closing actions or omissions of the Buyer or the Buyer Subsidiaries, and
the Buyer will be responsible for that portion of any Environmental Damages
attributable to such post-Closing acts or omissions.

     12.4 Environmental Indemnification by the Buyer.  Subject to Sections 12.3,
12.10 and 12.11, the Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries and their respective shareholders, officers,
or directors, and successors and assigns of the Seller or the Seller
Subsidiaries, from and against any Environmental Damages that arise from a
Buyer's Environmental Responsibility.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer
shall not be liable to and shall not indemnify any party or otherwise be
responsible for any Environmental Damages under this Article 12 to the extent
that the same are caused, contributed to or exacerbated by the post-Closing
actions or omissions of the Seller or the Seller Subsidiaries, and the Seller
will be responsible for that portion of any Environmental Damages attributable
to such acts or omissions.

     12.5 Release.  THE BUYER EXPRESSLY WAIVES AND RELEASES THE SELLER AND THE
SELLER SUBSIDIARIES FROM, AND COVENANTS NOT TO SUE THE SELLER OR ANY OF THE
SELLER SUBSIDIARIES FOR, ANY CLAIMS, WHETHER PURSUANT TO, OR AS PERMITTED OR
PROVIDED BY, THE ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS (EXPRESSLY INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
CERCLA, RCRA, CWA, SWDA, CAA, TSCA, AND EPCRA) OR OTHERWISE WHICH THE BUYER OR
ANY BUYER SUBSIDIARY, OR ANY SUCCESSOR IN INTEREST TO THE BUYER WITH RESPECT TO
THE REAL PROPERTY, MAY HAVE IN CONNECTION WITH THE RELEASE OR PRESENCE OF ANY
REGULATED SUBSTANCE AFTER THE CLOSING DATE.  After the Closing Date, the
remedies of the Buyer and the Seller provided for under Article 12 shall be the
exclusive remedies of the Parties with respect to the matters covered in this
Article 12.

     12.6 Notice of Claim.  The Parties agree that they will each promptly, but
in no event later than 60 calendar days from the date of their discovery by an
employee responsible for environmental compliance or reporting matters of facts
that are reasonably likely to give rise to a demand for indemnification pursuant
to Section 12.3 or Section 12.4, as the case may be, notify the other in writing
of such facts and potential claim.  If any legal proceedings are instituted or
any claim is asserted in writing by, or on behalf of, a Third Party in respect
of which either Party, including any Subsidiary, believes it may be entitled to
indemnity hereunder, that Party shall give written notice thereof within 30 days
of service of process after institution of the legal proceedings or within 30
days after the assertion of a claim in writing by, or on behalf of, the Third
Party asserting the claim.  A delay in giving notice required by the preceding
two sentences shall relieve the other Party of liability only to the extent that
it suffers actual prejudice because of the delay.  After notification, the Party
notified must within 60 days notify the other that it accepts responsibility for
the matters set forth in the notice or the Party so notified will be deemed to
have declined to accept responsibility for such matters.

     12.7 Acceptance of Responsibility.  If the Party notified accepts
responsibility for any Third Party claim under this Article 12:

     (a)  that Party may in its sole discretion and at its own expense assume
control of, and be responsible for, the defense or settlement of the claim;

     (b)  if the Party notified assumes control, the other Party may at its own
expense hire counsel to monitor the claim;

     (c)  the Party notified shall not, without the prior written consent of the
other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, settle the claim
or consent to entry of any judgment relating thereto which does not include as a
term thereof the giving by the claimant to the other Party of a release from all
liability in respect to the claim; and

     (d)  if a claim involves only an injunction or equitable relief, the Party
giving notice shall have the right to be represented, at its own expense, by
counsel of its choice in connection with the defense of the claim, and the Party
notified will not, without the prior written consent of the other Party, which
consent will not be unreasonably withheld, settle the claim or consent to entry
of any judgment relating thereto.

     12.8 Party Declines Responsibility.  Prior to the expiration of the 60-day
period under Section 12.4, and if the Party notified does not within that time
accept responsibility for any Third Party claim under this Article 12 or
declines to assume control:

     (a)  the Party giving notice may engage counsel to defend, settle or
otherwise dispose of such claim;

     (b)  the Party notified may at its own expense hire counsel to monitor the
claim;

     (c)  the Party receiving notice may notify the other Party at a subsequent
time that it is assuming responsibility for the claim, at which time the
provisions of Section 12.5 become applicable; and

     (d)  the right of either Party to contest the right of the other Party to
indemnification under this Agreement with respect to the proceeding or claim
shall not be extinguished.

     12.9 Cooperation.  The Parties will cooperate fully with each other in
connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any Third Party claim
under this Article 12, provided, however, that in no event shall either Party
have any right to any attorney-client or any attorney work product privileged
materials.

     12.10     The Seller's Indemnity and the Buyer's Re-Sale of Real Property.
With respect to any Seller's Environmental Responsibility, the Seller shall not
be responsible for that portion of any liability that is reasonably attributable
to the need to comply with: (i) Environmental Law that first takes effect after
the Closing Date; or (ii) more stringent requirements of an Environmental Law in
effect as of the Closing Date where the more stringent requirement is first
promulgated or first becomes applicable after the Closing Date; provided,
however, with reference to both (i) and (ii), that if the Seller elects not to
implement a Remedial Action with respect to an Identified Site Environmental
Condition listed on Schedule B of the Environmental Agreement, the Buyer
reasonably disagrees and the Seller does not predominately prevail on the
central issues in an arbitration pursuant to the Environmental Agreement, then
and only then, the Seller shall continue to bear the risk of changes in the
applicable Environmental Laws and liabilities related to such changes shall be
part of Seller's Environmental Responsibilities during the period ending on the
tenth anniversary of the Closing Date, but not that of changes in land use
initiated voluntarily by the Buyer or by any Affiliate or successor of the
Buyer.  The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that if a subsequent purchaser or a
change in land use requires additional Compliance Action or Remedial Action at
the Owned Real Property beyond that which may already have been initiated or
completed by the Seller, the Buyer will have the sole responsibility to satisfy
those additional requirements.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Agreement to the contrary, the Seller will have no obligation or liability under
this Article 12 to any such purchaser; provided, however, that no Affiliate of
Buyer shall be deemed a purchaser for purposes of this provision.

     12.11     No Consequential Damages.  Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, in no event will either Party be liable to the other for
consequential, special or incidental damages such as, by the way of example and
not of limitation, reduction in market value of the Real Property, loss of
profits, loss of business opportunity or interruption-of-business losses;
provided, however, that Seller will reimburse Buyer for one-half (fifty percent)
of its consequential damages caused proximately by Site Environmental
Conditions, Environmental Non-Compliance Items, Compliance Actions or Remedial
Actions plus the first $10 million in the aggregate of any consequential damages
actually incurred by the Buyer as a result of any Environmental Non-Compliance
Items, subject to the following conditions and limitations:

     (a)  Buyer shall pursue and implement all commercially reasonable measures
to avoid, mitigate or limit its damages; and

     (b)  Seller shall have no liability for any consequential damages incurred
by Buyer or any Buyer Subsidiary after the fifth anniversary of the Closing
Date, except in regard to any Compliance Action or Remedial Action that
continues in progress, for which Seller's liability with respect to such an item
shall extend to the final resolution of that item.

     12.12     Access to the Real Property and Documents.  If a Party or its
agents request, the other Parties shall provide reasonable access to the
property and the books, records and employees of the other Parties relating to
the Business or Real Property to the extent reasonably necessary to assist the
requesting Party in investigating, assessing, remediating, defending or settling
any claim regarding any alleged breach of any warranty or representation in
Section 5.12 or any matter involving Article 12, provided that such access will
be sought in such manner so as not to interfere unreasonably with the operation
of any Party's business and need not include access to any attorney-client or
any attorney work product privileged materials.

     12.13     The Seller's Pursuit of Third Parties.

     (a)  If the Seller remediates, or incurs any Environmental Damages with
respect to, a matter for which a Third Party may be responsible or liable,
subject to reimbursement for their reasonable costs, the Buyer and the Buyer
Subsidiaries agree to cooperate with the Seller in pursuing any claim against
such Third Party and will use reasonable efforts to assist the Seller in legally
asserting such claim and in recovering the Seller's Environmental Damages
against such Third Party including, but not limited to, acting as the real party
in interest and assigning the Buyer's or the Buyer Subsidiary's rights or any
cause of action against any such Third Party relating to such claim or the
proceeds thereof to the Seller.

     (b)  If the Buyer remediates, or incurs any Environmental Damages with
respect to, a matter for which a Third Party may be responsible or liable,
subject to reimbursement for their reasonable costs, the Seller and the Seller
Subsidiaries agree to cooperate with the Buyer in pursuing such claim against
such Third Party and will use reasonable efforts to assist the Buyer in legally
asserting such claim and in recovering the Buyer's Environmental Damages against
such Third Party, including, but not limited to, acting as the real party in
interest and assigning the Seller's or the Seller  Subsidiary's rights or any
cause of action against any such Third Party relating to such claim or the
proceeds thereof to the Buyer.

     12.14     Limitations.  The indemnification provisions of this Article 12
shall apply to any breach of a representation or warranty in Section 5.12, any
Environmental Non-Compliance Item and any Site Environmental Condition to the
exclusion of the provisions set forth in Article 19.  In addition to the
limitations and conditions on indemnification set forth in this Article 12, the
limitations and conditions stated in Sections 19.7, 19.8 and 19.9 shall apply to
indemnification under this Article 12.

     12.15     Agency Contact.

     (a)  The Buyer agrees that it will not engage in any contact, whether
written, verbal, or in person, with any governmental agency or agency
representative regarding any condition that it believes may give rise to a
Compliance Action or Remedial Action or constitute a breach of any warranty or
representation under Section 5.12 unless:

     (i)  the contact is required under any Environmental Law and Buyer and
Buyer Subsidiaries follow a consistent practice of reporting with respect to
other facilities they own or operate under the jurisdiction of that governmental
authority;

     (ii) the contact is reasonably necessitated by the ordinary and necessary
conduct of business;

     (iii)     a governmental agency or agency representative contacts the Buyer
regarding that matter; or

     (iv) the Seller has approved the contact, which approval will not be
unreasonably withheld.

     (b)  If the Buyer believes it is entitled to contact a governmental agency
or agency representative regarding any condition that it believes may give rise
to a Compliance Action or Remedial Action or constitute a breach of a warranty
or representation under Section 5.12, it shall notify the Seller as soon as
reasonably possible after it believes it will make the contact, and the Seller
shall respond as timely as the circumstances require, but in no event later than
ten (10) days from receipt of the Buyer's notice whether it approves the contact
and advise the Buyer if the Seller wishes to participate in the contact.  In any
event, the Seller's failure to approve or disapprove the contact within ten (10)
days of receipt of the Buyer's notice of the proposed contact shall be deemed to
be approval of the contact.

     (c)  Except as provided herein, the Seller will make all reports to
governmental agencies or other reports necessary or desirable in connection with
any condition or circumstance with respect to which the Buyer asserts pursuant
to Section 12.6 any claim for indemnity under Section 12.3; provided, however,

communications, provide Buyer reasonable opportunity to comment, and use best
efforts to reflect reasonable comments of Buyer in the final version.

                                   INDEMNIFICATION

     19.1 Indemnification of the Buyer.  In addition to their indemnification
obligations pursuant to Article 12 and subject to Article 18 and to compliance
with Sections 19.3, 19.4 and 19.9 of this Agreement, the Seller and each of the
Seller Subsidiaries, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify and hold the
Buyer and the Buyer Subsidiaries, and their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents, Affiliates, successors and assigns, harmless from any loss,
cost, liability, damage, penalty, fine, judgment, claim or expense (including,
without limitation, costs and expenses of investigation and litigation and
reasonable attorney's fees) (collectively, "Indemnified Losses") arising out of
or resulting from (a) any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement of the Seller or any Seller Subsidiary set forth in this Agreement or
in any certificate or other closing document furnished by the Seller pursuant to
this Agreement, other than those matters addressed in Article 12, (b) the
provision contained in Article 17, (c) the assertion against the Buyer or any

pay, perform or satisfy or cause to be paid or satisfied any of the Retained
Liabilities when due and payable, irrespective of whether the failure to pay or

representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Seller or any of the
Seller Subsidiaries set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that each
Seller Subsidiary shall only be jointly and severally liable to the extent of
the Purchase Price received by such Seller Subsidiary.

     19.2 Indemnification of the Seller.  Subject to Article 18 and to

of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Buyer set forth in
this Agreement, or in any certificate or other closing document furnished by the
Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, (b) the assertion against the Seller or any
Seller Subsidiary of any of the Assumed Liabilities other than those relating to
Environmental Conditions or liabilities retained by the Seller under Article 10,
or (c) the failure by the Buyer or any Buyer Subsidiary to fully pay, perform or
satisfy or cause to be paid or satisfied any of the Assumed Liabilities when due
and payable, irrespective of whether the failure to pay or fully satisfy such

     19.3 Eligible Claim; Threshold Amount; Payment.  A Party may bring a claim
seeking indemnification (the "Indemnified Party ") under the terms and
provisions of this Article 19 only if such claim exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars
($50,000) (an "Eligible Claim ").  Further, a Party may bring an Eligible Claim
seeking indemnification under the terms and provisions of this Article 19 only
if such Eligible Claim, either alone or when aggregated with other Eligible
Claims for indemnification by such party, exceeds Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($750,000) (the "Threshold Amount").  Until such time as a Party can
bring an Eligible Claim or Eligible Claims in the aggregate amount in excess of
the Threshold Amount, no right to indemnification under this Article 19 shall
arise.  In the event that a Party brings an Eligible Claim or Eligible Claims
for an amount in excess of the Threshold Amount, such Party shall be entitled to
indemnification for the full amount of all Indemnified Losses exceeding One
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) up to the maximum amount referred to in
Section 19.9.  NOTWITHSTANDING  ANYTHING  IN  THE  FOREGOING  TO  THE
CONTRARY,
HOWEVER,  CLAIMS  BY  THE  BUYER  AGAINST  THE  SELLER  OR  ANY  OF  THE
SELLER
SUBSIDIARIES  IN  RESPECT  OF  THE  RETAINED  LIABILITIES, THE SELLER'S
LIABILITIES  UNDER  ARTICLE 10 OR ARTICLE 17, WHETHER  ANY  OF  THE  FOREGOING
LIABILITIES  ARE  DIRECTLY  OR  INDIRECTLY  RELATED  TO  ANY  REPRESENTATION
OR
WARRANTY  HEREIN,  AND  CLAIMS  BY  THE  SELLER  OR  ANY  OF  THE  SELLER
SUBSIDIARIES  IN  RESPECT  OF  THE  ASSUMED  LIABILITIES OR  THE BUYER'S
LIABILITIES  UNDER  ARTICLE 10, WHETHER ANY OF THE  FOREGOING LIABILITIES ARE
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY RELATED TO ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY HEREIN, SHALL
NOT BE SUBJECT TO ANY OF THE LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNIFICATION SET FORTH IN THIS
SECTION 19.3, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THOSE LIMITATIONS RELATING TO
ELIGIBLE CLAIMS AND THE THRESHOLD AMOUNT.

     19.4 Procedures for Claims.  Subject to Section 19.3, any Indemnified Party
shall provide written notice of any Eligible Claim to the Party from which it
seeks indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") within 45 days of such Party
becoming aware of the existence of such Eligible Claim stating the amount
claimed to be due and payable or an estimate of the Eligible Claim if contingent
or unliquidated, the basis of the Eligible Claim and the provision or provisions
of this Agreement under which such Eligible Claim is asserted; provided,
however, that the failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice within
45 days of such Party becoming aware of the existence of such Eligible Claim
will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of liability for Indemnified Losses it
may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying
Party is materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Party's failure to give such
timely notice, including, without limitation, the inability of the Indemnifying
Party to adequately conduct the defense of such claim.  Within 30 calendar days
after receipt of such notice, the Indemnifying Party shall by written notice to
the Indemnified Party either (a) concede liability in whole as to the amount
claimed in such notice, (b) deny liability in whole as to such amount, or
(c) concede liability in part and deny liability in part.  If the Parties are
not able to resolve any dispute over a claim brought under this Article 19
within 30 days after the Indemnified Party receives written notice from the
Indemnifying Party denying liability in whole or in part, the Parties shall
submit the dispute to the dispute resolution procedure set forth in Article 22.

     19.5 Third-Party Claims.

     (a)  An Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by written
notice to the Indemnified Party within 30 days of receipt of written notice from
the Indemnified Party of the commencement of or assertion of any lawsuit filed
or instituted against the Indemnified Party asserting any Eligible Claim for
which the Indemnifying Party may be responsible under this Agreement (each, a
"Third Party Claim"), to assume and conduct the defense of each Third Party
Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable
to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that such Third Party Claim
involves (and continues to involve) solely monetary damages (the "Litigation
Condition"); and, provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party gives the
Indemnified Party adequate assurances in writing of the Indemnifying Party's
ability to meet its obligations under this Section 19.5 and Sections 19.1 or
19.2, as the case may be, if so required by the Indemnified Party.
Notwithstanding the Indemnifying Party's assumption of the defense of a Third
Party Claim, in the event that, during the course of such defense, the
Indemnifying Party uncovers or becomes aware of sufficient evidence which causes
the Indemnifying Party to reasonably conclude that the Indemnified Party is not
entitled to indemnification for such Third Party Claim pursuant to either
Section 19.1 or Section 19.2, as the case may be, the Indemnifying Party shall
promptly provide the Indemnified Party with written notice of its conclusion
that such Third Party Claim is not entitled to indemnification (a "Defense
Rejection Notice").  Upon receipt of a Defense Rejection Notice, the Indemnified
Party shall assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, provided that the
assumption of the defense by the Indemnified Party does not prejudice the
defense thereof and is permitted by the appropriate court, administrative agency
or tribunal.

     (b)  If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim
as provided in Section 19.5, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any
legal expenses (other than those of the Indemnified Party) in connection with
the defense thereof.  If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of
such Third Party Claim in accordance with this Section 19.5, the Indemnified
Party may continue to defend the Third Party Claim.  If the Indemnifying Party
has assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim as provided in this Section 19.5,
the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any legal expenses subsequently
incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof for as
long as the Indemnifying Party retains the defense of such Third Party Claim;
provided, however, that if (i) the Litigation Condition ceases to be met, or
(ii) the Indemnified Party provides written notice to the Indemnifying Party, at
any time after the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such action,
stating that the Indemnified Party believes the Indemnifying Party has failed to
take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third Party Claim, and
the Indemnifying Party fails to take such reasonable steps within 30 calendar
days (or such shorter period as may be required to defend diligently such Third
Party Claim) after receiving such written notice from the Indemnified Party, the
Indemnified Party may assume its own defense, and the Indemnifying Party shall
be liable for all reasonable costs or expenses paid or incurred in connection
therewith.  In the event that the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified
Party with a Defense Rejection Notice, the Indemnified Party, subject to its
right to recover legal expenses as Indemnified Losses in the event that it is
ultimately determined pursuant to the terms of this Agreement that the
Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification for a Third Party Claim, shall
pay the legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with the defense of such
Third Party Claim after the date of the Defense Rejection Notice.

     (c)  Without the Indemnified Party's prior written consent or
authorization, the Indemnifying Party shall not consent to a settlement of, or
the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim.  If the
Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim or
litigation resulting from such claim in accordance with the terms of this
Section 19, the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim or litigation in
such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such claim or
litigation, after giving notice of the same to the Indemnifying Party, on such
terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate.  If the Indemnifying Party
seeks to question the manner in which the Indemnified Party defended such Third
Party Claim or litigation resulting from such claim or the amount of or nature
of any such settlement, the Indemnifying Party shall have the burden to prove by
a preponderance of the evidence that the Indemnified Party did not defend such
claim in a reasonably prudent manner.

     19.6 Exclusive Remedy.  Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this
Agreement, following the Closing, the indemnification provided by this Article
19 shall be the exclusive remedy for the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may
be, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement other than those matters addressed by Article 10 and Article 12 and
except claims for fraud or intentional misrepresentation shall not be limited by
the provisions in this Article 19.

     19.7 Payment of Amounts.  If any amount is determined to be due and owing
to a Party as a result of any occurrence which gives rise to indemnification
obligations under this Section 19, such amount shall be paid by the Indemnifying
Party to the Indemnified Party in immediately available funds.  All
indemnification payments under this Article 19 and Article 12 shall be deemed
adjustments to the Purchase Price.

     19.8 Tax and/or Insurance Offset.  The amount of any Indemnified Losses
suffered by an Indemnified Party shall be reduced by the net effect of any tax-
related benefits or insurance coverage which may be realized by such Party
following the date of such Indemnified Losses in respect of or as a result of
such Indemnified Losses or the facts or circumstances relating thereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the
determination of the net tax effect and/or insurance coverage benefit of any
Indemnified Losses, if any, shall not delay payment or indemnification of such
Indemnified Losses by the Indemnifying Party.  All Indemnified Losses shall be
paid or reimbursed promptly upon determination; the Indemnified Party shall
reimburse the Indemnifying Party for the net tax effect benefit of such
Indemnified Losses, if any, upon the date of filing of the tax return with
respect to which such tax benefit is realizable or upon the date of recovery of
any insurance proceeds.

     19.9 Maximum Amount of Any Indemnification.  NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN
THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, NO PARTY SHALL BE REQUIRED TO INDEMNIFY THE
OTHER FOR CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO WHICH INDEMNIFICATION (ON A CUMULATIVE BASIS)
UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WOULD OTHERWISE BE AVAILABLE IN EXCESS OF AN AMOUNT EQUAL
TO 25% OF THE PURCHASE PRICE, AS ADJUSTED PURSUANT TO SECTION 4.3 OR SECTION
7.12.
                                      ARTICLE 20

                                     TERMINATION

     20.1 Grounds.  Anything herein or elsewhere to the contrary
notwithstanding, this Agreement may be terminated and the transactions
contemplated hereby abandoned only under any of the following circumstances:

     (a)  At any time (by written notice delivered to the other Party) prior to
the Closing:

     (i)  By the Buyer (upon action by its Board of Directors acting on advice
     of counsel) if the conditions set forth in Section 13 of this Agreement
     have become incapable of fulfillment on or before the Closing Date;

     (ii) By the Seller (upon action by its Board of Directors acting on advice
     of counsel) if the conditions set forth in Section 14 of this Agreement
     have become incapable of fulfillment on or before the Closing Date;

     (iii)     By the Seller or the Buyer if the Closing has not occurred on or
     prior to the Termination Date, unless the absence of such occurrence shall
     be due to the delay or failure of the Party seeking to terminate this
     Agreement (or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) to perform in all material
     respects each of its obligations under this Agreement required to be
     performed by it at or prior to the Closing; provided, however, that if the
     Closing has not occurred by the Termination Date due to the lack of
     expiration of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act or similar
     laws of foreign jurisdictions with respect to pre-merger approval, then,
     subject to termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 20.1(b) or
     subsections (iv), (v) and (vi) of this Section 20.1(a), neither the Buyer
     nor the Seller may terminate this Agreement due to this subsection (iii)
     for a period 180 days after the Termination Date;

     (iv) By either the Buyer or the Seller, if a court of competent
     jurisdiction or governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or
     commission shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other
     action, in each case permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise
     prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and through no
     failure, delay or fault of or breach by the terminating Party (or its
     Subsidiaries or Affiliates), and such order, decree, ruling or other action
     shall have become final and nonappealable;

     (v)  By the Buyer at any time if the Seller amends any of the Corresponding
     Schedules pursuant to Section 7.10 and such amendment reflects information
     that would have or has had a Material Adverse Effect; or

     (vi) By either the Buyer or the Seller if an appropriate official of the
Federal Trade Commission informs such Party that the staff of the Federal Trade
Commission has been authorized to seek a permanent injunction restraining,
enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or an Assistant Attorney General of the United States government or
his or her delegate informs such Party that the staff of the Justice Department
has been authorized to seek a permanent injunction restraining, enjoining or
otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     (b)  At any time by the mutual written consent of both the Buyer and the
Seller.

     20.2 Effect.

     (a)  If any of the conditions to the obligations of the Buyer in Section 13
or of the Seller in Section 14 have not been satisfied prior to the Termination
Date, the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, shall have the right either
(i) to terminate this Agreement pursuant to, and with liability allocated as set
forth in, this Article 20, or (ii) [to waive and release their respective
conditions and] to proceed with the Closing and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement without liability or further
obligation with respect to the nonfulfillment of such condition.

     (b)  In the event that this Agreement is terminated as permitted by Section
20.1, all obligations of the Seller and the Buyer hereunder shall terminate
without liability or further obligations; provided, however, if any such
termination shall result from the failure, delay or fault of the Buyer or any
Buyer Subsidiary, on the one hand, or the Seller or any Seller Subsidiary, on
the other hand (for purposes of this Section 20.2(b), either such parties, as
applicable, shall be referred to as the "Breaching Party") to fulfill a
condition to the performance of the obligations of either the Buyer and the
Buyer Subsidiaries or the Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries, as the case may be
(for purposes of this Section 20.2(b), either such parties, as applicable, shall
be referred to as the "Non-Breaching Party"), then the Breaching Party shall be
fully liable for (i) any and all costs, expenses, damages or losses incurred or
suffered by the Non-Breaching Party as a result of such termination, including,
without limitation, all costs and expenses of the Non-Breaching Party identified
in Sections 11.1(b) and Article 21, plus (ii) an amount in cash equal to 3% of
the Purchase Price.  Such payment shall be made within 20 days of the
termination, and such payment shall not constitute liquidated damages or
otherwise limit the rights of the Non-Breaching Party, which shall retain all
rights and remedies provided by law or equity.

     (c)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any confidentiality agreement entered
into by the Parties, and any other agreements between the Parties that do not
expressly provide for their termination, shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.

                                      ARTICLE 21

                                       EXPENSES

     Subject to Article 20, Section 11.1(b) and Article 16, whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Parties will,
except in the case of any breach of the terms and provisions of this Agreement
for which either the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, may be entitled to
indemnification under Article 19 hereof, pay its respective expenses, income and
other taxes and costs (including, without limitation, the commissions, fees,
disbursements and expenses of its investment bankers, attorneys, accountants and
consultants) incurred by it in negotiating, preparing, closing and carrying out
this Agreement and the Related Agreements and the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby.

                                      ARTICLE 22

                                  DISPUTE RESOLUTION

     22.1 Notice of Dispute.  In the event of a dispute between the Parties
arising out of or related to this Agreement (except for matters to be resolved
by the Independent Accountant), either Party may invoke the procedures specified
in this Article 22 by giving written notice to the other Party.  Such written
notice will describe briefly the nature of the dispute, the approximate amount
of any monetary claim and shall identify an individual with authority to settle
the dispute on behalf of that Party.  The Party receiving such notice shall have
ten days within which to designate an individual with authority to settle the
dispute on its behalf and to notify the other Party of its designation (the
individuals so designated shall be referred to as the "Authorized Individuals
").  The Authorized Individuals shall be elected officers of the Parties if the
amount claimed exceeds $5,000,000.

     22.2 Investigation; ADR.  The Authorized Individuals shall make whatever
investigation each deems appropriate and promptly thereafter, but no later than
30 days from the date of the original notice invoking these procedures, shall
commence discussions concerning resolution of the dispute.  If the dispute has
not been resolved within 60 days from the date of the original notice invoking
these procedures, the Parties shall submit the matter to alternative dispute
resolution ("ADR") in accordance with the following mini-trial procedure.

     22.3 Selection of Neutral.  The Parties shall have ten days from expiration
of the periods referred to in this Section 22.3 or the agreement of the Parties
to submit the matter to ADR, whichever occurs first, within which to agree upon
a mutually acceptable person not then or previously affiliated in any manner
with either Party (the "Neutral").  If no Neutral has been selected within that
time period, either Party may request the American Arbitration Association to
supply within ten days a list of at least three potential Neutrals with
qualifications as specified in the request, or as agreed to jointly by the
Parties.  Within seven days of receipt of the list, the Parties shall rank the
proposed candidates independently, exchange rankings (ranked numerically with
one being the most desired) and select as the Neutral the individual who
receives the highest combined ranking who is available to serve.  If two or more
individuals have the highest ranking and the Parties do not agree within five
days as to whom to select, the organization that provided the list of
individuals shall select the Neutral from among those individuals with the
highest ranking.

     22.4 Prehearing Conference.  Within 30 days after appointment of the
Neutral, the Parties agree to meet with the Neutral for a prehearing con-
ference.
At such conference, the Parties shall arrange for the exchange of information in
the possession of the other Party, including certain limited depositions where
appropriate, and the stipulation of uncontested facts.  The Parties shall
establish the extent of and schedule for the production of relevant documents,
sworn depositions and the identification of witnesses.  Should a dispute arise
over the extent of document production, appropriate witnesses or the scheduling
of any activity, including the hearing location and date, the Neutral shall make
a final determination after hearing each Party's position.  At such prehearing
conference, or at a later scheduled conference as agreed to by both Parties, the
location and date for the hearing shall be set which shall not, unless both
Parties agree, be more than 120 days from the date of the initial prehearing
conference.

     22.5 Written Summary of Position.  One week prior to the scheduled hearing,
each Party shall deliver to the Neutral and to the other Party a written summary
of its views on the matter in dispute.  The summary shall be no longer than
twenty double-spaced pages unless the Parties agree otherwise.

     22.6 Hearing.  At the hearing each Party shall be represented by the
Authorized Individuals and also by counsel.  Each Party shall have an
agreed-upon time, not to exceed four hours, in order to present its case.  The
Authorized Individuals shall hear the presentation but shall not participate in
them.  The Neutral will be permitted to ask questions during the presentation by
each side and the Authorized Individuals may ask questions after the conclusion
of the other Party's presentation.  At the conclusion of such presentations, the
Authorized Individuals, without counsel, shall meet with the Neutral to discuss
the case in order to reach a resolution.  If no settlement is reached, the
Neutral will orally summarize the dispute, the strengths and weaknesses of both
Parties' positions and give his non-binding opinion as to how much the Party
seeking recovery or other relief would receive if the matter were resolved
through litigation.  There shall be no stenographic, visual or audio record made
of the hearing.

     22.7 Commitment to ADR.  The Parties agree to participate in the ADR to its
conclusion as designated by the Neutral and not to terminate negotiations
concerning resolution of the matters in dispute until at least two weeks
thereafter.  Each Party agrees not to commence a lawsuit or seek other remedies
prior to the conclusion of the two-week post-hearing negotiation period;
provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article
22 or elsewhere in this Agreement, either Party may commence litigation on any
date after which the commencement of litigation would be barred by an applicable
statute of limitations or in order to request equitable relief to prevent
irreparable harm or other injury for which equitable relief is appropriate.  In
such event, the Parties agree (except as prohibited by court order) to continue
to participate in the ADR to its conclusion.

     22.8 Fees.  The fees of, and reasonable costs incurred by, the Neutral
shall be shared equally by the Parties.  The Neutral shall be disqualified as a
witness, consultant, expert or counsel for any Party with respect to the matters
in dispute and any related matters.

     22.9 Confidentiality.  The ADR is a compromise negotiation for purposes of
the Federal Rules of Evidence and state rules of evidence.  The entire procedure
is confidential.  All conduct, statements, promises, offers, views and opinions,
whether oral or written, made in the course of the ADR by any of the Parties,
their agents, employees, representatives or other invitees to the ADR and by the
Neutral, who is the Parties' joint agent for purposes of these compromise
negotiations, are confidential and shall, in addition and where appropriate, be
deemed to be work product and privileged.  Such conduct, statements, promises,
offers, views and opinions shall not be discoverable or admissible for any
purposes, except impeachment, in any litigation or other proceeding involving
the Parties and shall not be disclosed to anyone not an agent, employee, expert,
witness, or representative for any of the Parties.  Evidence otherwise
discoverable or admissible is not excluded from discovery or admission as a
result of its use in the ADR, and the Parties may request any discovery to which
they would otherwise be entitled without regard to the documents, depositions or
other discovery that occurred as part of the ADR.

                                      ARTICLE 23

to whom it is directed upon actual receipt by such Party (or its agent for
notices hereunder).  Any notice which is addressed and mailed in the manner
herein provided shall be deemed given to the entity to which it is addressed
when received.

     23.2 Waiver.  No provision of this Agreement may be waived except by a
writing signed by the waiving party.  No waiver of any breach of any provision
of this Agreement will be deemed a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach
or of any other provision of this Agreement.  No extension of time for
performance of any obligations or acts will be deemed to be an extension of the
time for performance of any other obligations or acts.

     23.3 Captions.  The captions set forth in this Agreement are for
convenience only and shall not be considered as part of this Agreement, nor
affect in any way the meaning of the terms and provisions hereof.

     23.4 Successors and Assigns.  The terms and conditions of this Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and
assigns of the Parties hereto; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be
assigned by any Party without the express written consent of the other Party
hereto, except that either Party may assign all or part of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement to one or more Subsidiaries of such Party, but
any such assignment will not release such Party of any of its obligations.

     23.5 Enforceability.  If any provision of this Agreement as applied to any
Party or to any circumstance shall be adjudged by a court to be invalid or
unenforceable, the same shall in no way affect any other provision of this
Agreement, the application of such provision in any other circumstances, or the
validity or enforceability of this Agreement.  The Parties intend this Agreement
to be enforced as written.  If any such provision, or part thereof, however, is
held to be unenforceable because of the duration thereof or the area covered
thereby, the Seller and the Buyer agree that the court making such determination
shall have the power to reduce the duration and/or area of such provision,
and/or to delete the specific words or phrases, and in its amended form such
provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced.  If any provision of
this Agreement shall otherwise finally be determined to be unlawful, then such
provision shall be deemed to be severed from this Agreement and every other
provision of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

     23.6 No Third-Party Beneficiaries or Right to Rely.  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) nothing in this Agreement is
intended to or shall create for or grant to any Third Party (including without
limitation to any former, current or future employees or officers of any Party,
any Subsidiary or any labor union) any rights whatever, as a Third Party
beneficiary or otherwise, (b) no Third Party is entitled to rely on any of the
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein, and   no
Party hereto shall incur any liability or obligation to any Third Party because
of any reliance by such Third Party on any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement herein.

     23.7 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in more than one
counterpart, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original
and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement.  A signature to
this Agreement delivered by facsimile or other artificial means shall be deemed
valid.

     23.8 Governing Law.  This Agreement shall in all respects be interpreted,
construed and governed by and in accordance with the local laws of the State of
Michigan, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.

     23.9 Time of Essence.  Time shall be of the essence with respect to this
Agreement.

     23.10     No Strict Construction.  The language used in this Agreement will
be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties hereto to express their
mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against either
Party.

     23.11     Public Announcements.  The Buyer and the Seller shall agree on
the terms of the press releases to be issued upon the execution of this
Agreement and shall consult with each other before issuing any other press
releases with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby, including without limitation, any termination of this Agreement for any
reason.

     23.12     Currency/Method of Payment.  Unless otherwise specifically
provided herein, (a) all references to amounts of money shall be to lawful money
of the United States, and (b) all payments of money to be made by the Buyer or
the Seller, as the case may be, shall be made in immediately available funds.

     23.13     Subsequent Legal Fees.  In the event any action or proceeding is
initiated to enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Party
prevailing in said action shall be entitled to its reasonable attorney's fees
and costs.

     23.14     Exclusive Jurisdiction and Consent to Service of Process.  The
Parties agree that any legal action, suit or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be
instituted in a federal or state court sitting in Wayne County, Michigan, which
shall be the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of said legal proceedings and each
Party hereto waives any objection which such Party may now or hereafter have to
the laying of venue of any such action, suit or proceeding, and irrevocably
submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such action, suit or
proceeding.  Any and all service of process and any other notice in any such
action, suit or proceeding shall be effective against such Party when
transmitted in accordance with the notice provision herein.  Nothing contained
herein shall be deemed to affect the right of any Party hereto to serve process
in any manner permitted by law.

     23.15     Miscellaneous.  As used in this Agreement, the Corresponding
Schedules, the Corresponding Exhibits and the Related Agreements and as required
by the context:  the singular and plural shall be deemed to include each other
and each gender, to include all genders; the terms herein, hereof, and hereunder
or other similar terms refer to this Agreement or the Related Agreements, in
which they appear as a whole and not only to the particular sentence, paragraph,
subsection or section in which any such term is used except as expressly more
specifically limited; and words and phrases defined in this Agreement have the
same meaning in the Corresponding Schedules, Corresponding Exhibits and Related
Agreements unless specifically provided to the contrary in any thereof.

     23.16     Entire Agreement; Amendment.  This Agreement, including all
Corresponding Schedules and Corresponding Exhibits hereto, together with the
Related Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement dated April 13, 1999
between the Seller and the Buyer, constitute the sole understanding of the
Parties with respect to the matters contemplated hereby and thereby and
supersedes and renders null and void all other prior agreements and
understandings between the Parties with respect to such matters.  No amendment,
modification or alteration of the terms or provisions of this Agreement,
including all Corresponding Schedules and Corresponding Exhibits hereto, shall
be binding unless the same shall be in writing and duly executed by the Party
against whom such would apply.
