Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, "Excluded Liabilities" shall include the Stuart Environmental Liabilities. Seller agrees to pay, perform and discharge all Excluded Liabilities. Notwithstanding the consummation of such transactions, Seller will retain and shall be responsible for all rights, title and interest in and to, and all obligations and liabilities relating to or arising out of, the Excluded Assets.

2.03 Purchase Price At Closing and in addition to Purchaser's assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, Purchaser will pay to Seller cash and Series B Preferred Stock in respect of the Purchased Assets, subject to post-closing adjustment in accordance with Section 2.04 (the "Purchase Price"). Purchaser will pay the Purchase Price as follows:

Cash at Closing. At the Closing, Purchaser will pay to Seller, by means of a wire transfer of immediately available funds to such bank account as Seller has designated prior to the Closing, the sum of Thirty Two Million Dollars ($32,000,000).

Series B Preferred Stock. At the Closing, Purchaser will transfer to Seller Series B Preferred Stock (herein referred to as the "Shares"), in accordance with and containing such rights, privileges, registration rights, restrictions and features as set forth on Exhibit B.

2.04 Purchase Price Adjustment The "Purchase Price Adjustment" (which may be either a negative or positive number) shall be determined as follows:

(a) Closing Balance Sheet. Within sixty (60) days following the Closing, Purchaser shall prepare and submit to Seller a balance sheet of the Seller dated as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Balance Sheet"), which shall be prepared from the books and records maintained by Seller on its Symix system, in connection with the Business and delivered to Purchaser at Closing and in accordance with the mutually agreed accounting instructions set forth on Exhibit C (the "Accounting Instructions"). The sole purpose of the Closing Balance Sheet contemplated by this Section 2.04(a) is to measure the Closing Net Book Value as of the Closing Date. "Closing Net Book Value" means the sum of the (A) Fixed Assets, Real Property, Receivables, Inventory, and Prepaids included in the Purchased Assets less (B) Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Taxes included in the Assumed Liabilities. Each Party agrees to cooperate and shall provide the other Party and its representatives with reasonable access to the books and records and relevant personnel during the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet.

(b) Review by Seller. Following receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet, Seller shall have a period of sixty (60) days to review the proposed Closing Balance Sheet. During such period, Purchaser shall make available its accounting staff and its outside auditors to respond to any questions of Seller relating to the proposed Closing Balance Sheet and will furnish to Seller such workpapers and other documents and information relating to the Closing Balance Sheet as Seller may request and are available to Purchaser or its Affiliates. At or before the end of such sixty (60) day period, Seller will either: (i) accept the proposed Closing Balance Sheet entirely, in which case the final Purchase Price Adjustment will be computed using the Closing Balance Sheet; or (ii) deliver to Purchaser notice and an explanation of those items in the proposed Closing Balance Sheet that Seller disputes, in which case the aggregate amounts not affected by the disputed items will be deemed to be as set forth on the proposed Closing Balance Sheet. After the end of such sixty (60) day period, Seller may not introduce additional disagreements with respect to any item in the Closing Balance Sheet or increase the amount of any disagreement, and any item not so identified shall be deemed to be agreed to by Seller and will be final and binding upon the Parties. Similarly, a disagreement by Seller does not provide any right to Purchaser to introduce any changes to the Closing Balance Sheet not directly related to the disputed item. If Seller delivers the notice referred to in (ii) above, then within a period of sixty (60) days from the date of such delivery, the Parties will attempt to resolve in good faith any disputed items, and the Purchase Price Adjustment will be computed using the Closing Balance Sheet produced through such resolution. Failing such resolution, the unresolved disputed items will be referred for final binding resolution to a nationally recognized firm of certified public accountants other than the Purchaser's and its Affiliates' auditors and Ernst & Young LLP, mutually agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser (the "Accountants"). If issues in dispute are submitted to the Accountants for resolution, (x) each Party will furnish to the Accountants such workpapers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Accountants may request and are available to that Party or its Affiliates (or an independent public accounting firm hired by such Party), and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accountants any material relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the Accountants, (y) the determination by the Accountants, as set forth in a notice delivered to both Seller and Purchaser by the Accountants, will be binding and conclusive on the Parties, and (z) all fees, costs and expenses of the Accountants shall be paid by Seller and Purchaser in inverse proportion to the share of disputed items determined in such Party's favor. Nothing herein shall be construed to authorize or permit the Accountants (i) to determine any questions or matters whatsoever under or in connection with this Agreement except for the resolution of differences between the Parties regarding the determination of the Closing Net Book Value solely in accordance with the Accounting Instructions, or (ii) to resolve any such differences by making an adjustment to the Purchase Price that is outside of the range defined by amounts as finally proposed by the Parties in their respective proposed statements of the Closing Net Book Value submitted in accordance with this Section 2.04.

(c) Adjustment and Payment Procedures. If the value of the Closing Net Book Value set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet is less than the value of the baseline net book value (the "Baseline Net Book Value") set forth on the mutually agreed upon baseline balance sheet attached as Exhibit D (the "Baseline Balance Sheet"), Seller and Chromalloy, jointly and severally, agree to pay to Purchaser by means of wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Purchaser the amount of such difference plus interest on the amount of the difference within five (5) Business Days after final agreement by the Parties as to the Closing Balance Sheet. If the value of the Closing Net Book Value set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet is greater than the Baseline Net Book Value set forth on the Baseline Balance Sheet, Purchaser shall pay to Seller by means of wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller the amount of such difference plus interest on the amount of the difference within five (5) Business Days after final agreement by the Parties as to the Closing Balance Sheet. In either case, the rate of interest shall be equal to the prime rate of interest as charged by The Bank of New York on the Closing Date. Interest shall accrue for the period from the Closing Date to the day before the date on which the payment provided for under this Section 2.04(c) is paid.

2.05 Allocation of Purchase Price Seller and Purchaser agree that the consideration provided for in this Agreement shall be allocated by Seller and Purchaser and their respective Affiliates to the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities in accordance with the principles of Section 1060 of the Code. Purchaser will provide the proposed allocation for review by Seller. Seller and Purchaser agree to adhere to such allocation, as modified to account for the Purchase Price Adjustment, for all purposes of any federal or state income or franchise tax returns filed by them and their Affiliates subsequent to the Closing, including the determination by Seller and Purchaser, as the case may be, of taxable gain or loss on the sale of the Purchased Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities and the determination by Purchaser of its Tax basis with respect to the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities. In any proceeding related to the determination of any Tax, neither Purchaser, Seller nor Chromalloy will contend or represent that such allocation is not a correct allocation.

(a) the material breach, inaccuracy or falsehood of any representation or warranty of Purchaser on the date hereof or as of the Closing contained in this Agreement, the Other Agreements or any other certificate or document delivered by Purchaser in accordance with any of the foregoing;

(b) the material breach or failure to perform by Purchaser of any covenant contained in this Agreement or the Other Agreements;

7.02 Indemnification of Purchaser Seller and Chromalloy, jointly and severally, hereby agree that they shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser and its parent corporation, subsidiaries and Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, stockholders, controlling Persons and Affiliates (collectively, the "Purchaser Entities") harmless from and against any Losses to the extent arising out of or resulting from, directly or indirectly, any of the following:

(e) any liability under bulk sales or similar laws resulting from any act or omission of Seller on or prior to the Closing.

7.03 Procedure for Claims If any of the Sequa Entities or Purchaser Entities (the "Claimant") desires to make a claim against any Party obligated to provide indemnification under Sections 7.01 or 7.02 (the "Indemnitor"), with respect to any matter covered by such indemnification obligation, the procedures for making such claim shall be as follows:

(a) Third Party Claims. If the claim is for indemnification with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or demand at any time instituted or asserted against, or made upon, the Claimant by or on the behalf of any Person other than the Seller Entities or the Purchaser Entities (a "Third Party Claim"), the Claimant will give prompt written notice to the Indemnitor of the institution, assertion or making of the Third Party Claim and the nature thereof. Upon delivery of such notice the claim specified therein shall be deemed to have been made for purposes of this Agreement. The Indemnitor shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice, give written notice to the Claimant as to whether or not the Indemnitor accepts the responsibility to indemnify Claimant with respect to the Third Party Claim. If the Indemnitor accepts the responsibility to indemnify the Claimant with respect to the Third Party Claim, the Claimant will then grant to the Indemnitor authority, and the Indemnitor will proceed, at its sole expense, to cure, defend, compromise or settle the Third Party Claim in the name of the Claimant; provided, however, that (i) any such defense of the Third Party Claim shall be conducted by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Claimant, (ii) the Indemnitor shall not enter into any final compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of Claimant, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (iii) the Indemnitor shall not negotiate or otherwise agree to any final compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim that would impose on the Claimant any future obligations, monetary or injunctive, or impose on the Real Property any restriction on future uses of such property. If the Indemnitor denies the responsibility to indemnify the Claimant with respect to the Third Party Claim, or if the Indemnitor fails to accept responsibility in a timely manner following Claimant's notice of the Third Party Claim or fails to proceed in a diligent and timely manner to cure, defend, compromise or settle a Third Party Claim for which it has accepted responsibility in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Claimant may then proceed to cure, defend, compromise or settle such Third Party Claim as it shall in its sole discretion deem to be advisable, without prejudice to any right to indemnification Claimant may have against the Indemnitor with respect thereto, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, and in such event the liability of the Indemnitor to the Claimant for indemnification with respect to such Third Party Claim shall be determined by a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction, or by written consent of the Indemnitor; provided, however, that Seller and Purchaser each hereby consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in which such a claim is brought for purposes of any indemnity claim that a Claimant may have under this Agreement with respect to such Third Party Claim or the matters alleged therein.

(b) Non-Third Party Claims. If the claim is for indemnification with respect to a matter other than a Third Party Claim, the Claimant will give prompt written notice to the Indemnitor of such claim, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis, nature and estimated dollar amount thereof. Upon delivery of such notice the claim specified therein shall be deemed to have been made for purposes of this Agreement. The Indemnitor shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice, give written notice to the Claimant as to whether or not the Indemnitor accepts the responsibility to indemnify Claimant with respect to such claim. If the Indemnitor accepts the responsibility to indemnify the Claimant with respect to such claim, the Indemnitor shall immediately pay to the Claimant or its designee the amount set forth in the notice thereof (provided such amount is no longer an estimate) or make arrangements otherwise mutually satisfactory to the Parties, with such payment to be made in immediately available funds, and upon actual receipt of such payment by the Claimant or otherwise mutually satisfactory arrangements, such claim shall be deemed to have been satisfied. If the Indemnitor denies the responsibility to indemnify the Claimant with respect to such claim, or if the Indemnitor fails to accept responsibility in a timely manner following notice of such claim, the liability of the Indemnitor to the Claimant for indemnification with respect to such claim shall be determined as provided under Section 0.

(c) Claims for Assumed Liabilities and Excluded Assets and Liabilities. The provisions of Sections 7.05(b) and (c) will not apply to Losses arising out of or resulting from Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities or Assumed Liabilities. Seller and Chromalloy, jointly and severally, are responsible for any claims or Losses incurred but only to the extent arising out of any of the Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities. Purchaser will be responsible for any claims or Losses incurred but only to the extent arising out of any of the Assumed Liabilities.

7.04 Indemnification Limitation on Real Property Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if there is any defect or deficiency in title to the Real Property and such Real Property is the subject of title insurance, Seller shall be liable to Purchaser on account of any representation or warranty contained herein with respect to title to such Real Property or any deficiency therein only to the extent that such title insurance does not compensate Purchaser or its assignee to the full extent of such defect or deficiency in title, and Purchaser shall be obligated to diligently use all commercially reasonable efforts in pursuing a claim for such insurance recovery.

7.05 Survivability; Limitations

(a) The representations and warranties of Seller and Purchaser or their respective Affiliates contained in this Agreement and the Other Agreements shall survive the Closing, and except as set forth in the next two sentences, shall terminate at the close of business on the eighteen-month anniversary of the Closing Date (the "Expiration Date"), after which date the representations and warranties shall be extinguished in all respects; provided, however, that any claim pending on the Expiration Date for which notice has been given in accordance with Section 7.03(a) or Section 7.03(b), as the case may be, on or before such Expiration Date may continue to be asserted and indemnified against until finally resolved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations and warranties of Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, set forth in: (i) Sections 3.01(a), 3.01(b), 3.01(c), 3.01(d); the first sentence of Section 3.02(b); the second sentence of Section 3.02(e); and Sections 3.03(a), 3.03(b), 3.03(c) and 3.03(d) (collectively, the "Excluded Representations") shall survive indefinitely; (ii) Sections 3.02(k), 3.02(p) and 3.03(v) the date that is thirty (30) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller's representations and warranties set forth (y) in Section 3.02(s) shall survive the Closing Date through the life of the patents set forth on Schedule 3.02(s), including any extensions, and (z) in Section 3.02(w) shall survive the Closing Date through expiration of any applicable statute of limitations.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any liability under Section7.01 or Section 7.02 for any Losses until such Losses exceed Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000)(an "Eligible Loss"); provided, however, that this Eligible Loss threshold shall not apply to Losses arising out of or resulting from the Excluded Liabilities, Excluded Assets or the Assumed Liabilities.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither Purchaser nor Seller shall have any liability under Section 7.01(a) or Section 7.02(a), excluding Losses arising out of Excluded Liabilities, Excluded Assets and Assumed Liabilities, and excluding Losses arising out of matters covered by the third sentence of Section 3.02(r), as the case may be, for Eligible Losses, (i) until the aggregate amount of all Eligible Losses sustained by Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), in which case Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall be liable for all such Eligible Losses in excess of such amount, or (ii) in excess of the aggregate cash consideration received by the Seller on the Closing Date; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply to any liability arising out of the Excluded Representations. Except for claims (y) for equitable relief after the Closing, or (z) based on fraud or intentional misconduct, the exclusive remedy of each of Purchaser and Seller for any and all Losses shall be limited to indemnification as set forth in this ARTICLE VII. For purposes of Sections 7.01(a) and 7.02(a) and this Section 7.05(c), any breach, inaccuracy or falsehood of a representation or warranty of Purchaser, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates (whether in this Agreement or the Other Agreements) shall be determined without regard to any qualification related to materiality contained in this Agreement or the Other Agreements.

7.06 Indemnification Based Upon Net Damage The obligation of either Purchaser or Seller to pay losses to the other shall be reduced by the net value, after all costs, fees and expenses of collection, of any proceeds of insurance from or claims, cross-claims or counterclaims against any Person that is not an Affiliate, as a direct result of the event giving rise to the claim for indemnification provided, however, that if any such proceeds have not been realized at the time losses are paid, then the Party making such payment shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to the rights of the Party receiving such payment against such Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of any such insurance proceeds shall not reduce the amount of Losses for which the Indemnitor is responsible to the extent that the Claimant can establish that the recovery of such proceeds will result in the termination of a material applicable insurance policy or a material retrospective or retroactive premium adjustment as a result of such claim.

7.07 Warranty Claims. Purchaser, to the extent of any valid claims in excess of Fifty Thousand ($50,000) incurred for rework, warranty administration, inspection, recalls, replacement or repurchase of product, test and overhaul services not provided for under Section 2.01(a)(vii)("Warranty Work"), and provided, if an only if, any of the foregoing are contractual obligations of Seller, shall perform such services for the benefit of Seller, at Purchaser's fully burdened cost with no ▇▇▇▇ up. Such Warranty Work shall be performed by Purchaser for the benefit of Seller for all product or products which were sold or shipped by the Business on or prior to the Closing Date. All items received for Warranty Work after the Closing shall be inspected and serviced by Purchaser in accordance with the applicable contractual obligation. Purchaser shall not be authorized to perform any work for which Seller is not contractually responsible unless Purchaser elects to do so at its sole cost and expense. Purchaser shall furnish appropriate documentation to Seller indicating whether the item received for Warranty Work was accepted or denied warranty defect/failure status and include inspection findings and test results. Seller reserves the right to review such warranty documentation from time to time and review the nature and extent of Warranty Work done by Purchaser, during Purchaser's normal business hours upon three (3) Business Day's advance written notice. All Warranty Work accepted by Purchaser must be evidenced by documentation including the repair scope, outside services contracted, material content, labor hours and the appropriate costs. All Warranty Work costs incurred by Purchaser (including shipping with no ▇▇▇▇-up) will be invoiced to Seller and must include appropriate documentation indicating the failure and the Warranty Work required with full workscope detail required to return the product received to acceptable serviceable condition as determined by the applicable contract. Seller must make payment to Purchaser for all undisputed Warranty Work completed by Purchaser within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of an invoice and its accompanying documentation. All warranty work shall be done in accordance with Purchaser's standards and in accordance with good industry standards and practices, consistent with the practices of Seller in effect during calendar year 2003 through the Closing. Should Seller dispute the extent of any Warranty Work conducted, Seller and Purchaser shall within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of written notice from Seller, specifically stating the basis for the dispute, attempt to agree upon a qualified, independent, third party to review the dispute. If they are unable to agree upon a qualified, independent, third party they shall each within five business days of the earlier of failure to agree upon a third party or lapsing of the ten (10) Business Day period each select a qualified, independent, third party which shall within five business days select a qualified, independent, third party to definitively review the dispute and make a determination as to the propriety of the Warranty Work done by Purchaser. The cost incurred in any such dispute shall be borne by the nonprevailing party. Chromalloy shall be responsible for any undisputed payments which Seller fails to make to Purchaser hereunder as well as any payments which are determined by the qualified, independent third party to be due to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7.07.
