FORMATION; NAME; PURPOSES

2.1 Formation. The Member has converted the Converting Entity to a Delaware limited liability company pursuant to the Act by causing a Certificate of Conversion and a Certificate of Formation of the Company to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Company and all equity ownership interests in the Company will be governed by this Agreement and, except as modified by this Agreement, by the Act.

2.2 Intent. The parties hereto intend that the Company, as an entity with a single owner, shall be disregarded as an entity separate from the Member for federal income tax purposes.

2.3 Name. The name of the Company shall be “Rexnord Industries, LLC.”

2.4 Purpose. The purpose of the Company shall be to engage in any lawful business or activity permitted under the Act.

2.5 Powers. The Company shall have the same powers as an individual to do all things necessary and convenient to carry out its business, to the fullest extent provided by the Act.

- 2 -

2.6 Registered Agent and Registered Office. The registered agent of the Company in Delaware is The Corporation Trust Company and the street address of its registered office is Corporation Trust Center, 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000.

2.8 Term. The term of the Company commenced on August 5, 1988, which was the effective date of incorporation of the Converting Entity, and shall be perpetual or until the Company is dissolved in accordance with Article IX of this Agreement.

2.9 Membership Interest. The equity ownership interest in the Company is designated as the “Membership Interest.” The Membership Interest is personal property and the owner of the Membership Interest has no claim to specific property of the Company. The Membership Interest is subject to the limitations on Transfer set forth in Sections 2.10(a), 6.2 and 6.3. Except as contemplated by Article V hereof, it is the intent of the Member and the Company that there be only one member of the Company at any time and that the Membership Interest be the only interest in the Company outstanding at any time. In the event of a Transfer of the Membership Interest permitted by Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 below, references in this Agreement to the Member will thereafter be deemed to refer to the succeeding owner of the Membership Interest.

2.10 Tax Classification. It is the Member’s express intention that, in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 301.7701-2 and 301.7701-3 and corresponding provisions of applicable state tax laws (and any successor provisions), the Company be disregarded as an entity separate from the Member for all income and franchise tax purposes. To that end:

(a) The Member and the Company will take no action that would terminate the Company’s eligibility to be a disregarded entity (“Contrary Action”) (for example, any Issuance of Additional Interest (as defined below in Article V) or any Transfer of the Membership Interest that results in the Company having more than one Member, or any action that would cause the Company to become an association taxable as a corporation within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-2(b)(2)) absent a written statement of consent by the Member to act in contravention of such intentions. Any Contrary Action taken by the Member or the Company that is not accompanied by a written statement of consent by the Member to proceed notwithstanding the conflict between the Contrary Action and the intentions expressed in this Section 2.10(a) shall be null and void, and of no force or effect whatsoever. The Company shall not record on its books any purported Issuance of Additional Interest or any purported Transfer of the Membership Interest that is a Contrary Action not permitted under this Agreement after taking into account the provisions of this Section 2.10(a), Article 5, Section 6.2 and Section 6.3.

(b) For any period that the Company is disregarded, all of the Company’s items of income, gain, deduction, loss, and credit, will be included directly in the federal (and applicable state) income and franchise tax returns of the Member as if the Company were a branch or division of the Member.

ARTICLE III

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND LOANS

3.1 Initial Capital Contribution. The Member has exchanged its stock certificate which previously represented all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Converting Entity for the sole Membership Interest of the Company (the “Initial Capital Contribution”). Only the owner of the Membership Interest has the right to recover this Initial Capital Contribution.

3.2 Additional Capital Contributions. The Member shall have the right, but not the obligation to make additional capital contributions to the Company at such times and in such amounts as the Member may decide from time to time (“Additional Capital Contributions”). As the holder of the Membership Interest, the Member is the only Person that has the right to make Additional Capital Contributions, and that has the right to recover any Additional Capital Contributions. Any Additional Capital Contribution made by the Member will not be in exchange for additional membership interests in the Company or any other consideration issued by the Company.

3.3 No Interest Earned on Company Capital. No interest will be paid by the Company on the Initial Capital Contribution or any Additional Capital Contribution.

3.4 Advances from the Member. The Member shall have no obligation to make loans or advances to the Company, but may do so in its discretion on such terms and conditions as it and the Board of Directors of the Company deem appropriate. Any advance other than the Initial Capital Contribution or Additional Capital Contributions made by the Member or any other Person to the Company will not be deemed a capital contribution to, or be reflected on the balance of, any capital account of the Company. The amount of any such advance will instead create indebtedness owing by the Company to the Member or such other Person and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, will be repaid as soon as practicable to the Member or such other Person. Any distribution relating to an advance other than the Initial Capital Contribution or Additional Capital Contributions made by the Member or any other Person to the Company will constitute a repayment of such advance, and any excess distribution will not create a deemed equity interest in the Company.

ARTICLE IV

DISTRIBUTIONS

4.1 Distributions. Except for distributions upon liquidation of the Company (which are governed by Section 9.2), Cash from Operations for each fiscal year of the Company, less Reserves, shall be distributed to the Member at such times as the Board of Directors shall determine.

- 4 -

4.2 Limitations Upon Distributions. No distribution shall be declared or made if, after giving effect to the distribution, the Company would be unable to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or if the fair market value of the total assets of the Company would be less than the sum of all liabilities of the Company, excluding liabilities to the Member on account of its Initial Capital Contribution and Additional Capital Contributions.

ARTICLE V

ADMISSION OF ADDITIONAL MEMBERS

The Company may cause the Company to have more than one member by issuing a membership interest to a Person other than the Member (“Issuance of Additional Interest”) only if the Member executes a written statement of consent to the Issuance of Additional Interest stating that the Member consents to the Issuance of Additional Interest. In connection with any Issuance of Additional Interest in accordance with this Article V, this Agreement shall be superseded by a limited liability company agreement approved by the Member and entered into by all members, including each additional member, and the Company. Any purported Issuance of Additional Interest effected other than in accordance with this Article V will be treated in accordance with Section 2.10(a).

ARTICLE VI

TRANSFER OF MEMBERSHIP INTEREST AND WITHDRAWAL OF MEMBER

6.1 Certificate of Membership Interest. The Membership Interest may be evidenced by a certificate in a form approved by the Board of Directors. Such certificate shall contain a restrictive legend prohibiting any transferability thereof without the express compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and may be amended from time to time.

6.2 Assignment and Transfer of Membership Interest. Absent a written statement of consent by the Member to Transfer the Membership Interest other than in accordance with this Section 6.2, the Member shall not Transfer the Membership Interest to any Person except in a Transfer of the entire Membership Interest to another corporation or other legal entity in a Transfer to which Section 381 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, is applicable, and pursuant to which the transferee becomes or remains the sole owner of the Membership Interest and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the limitations on the Transfer of the Membership Interest set forth herein. Any permitted Transfer under this Section 6.2 shall, in all cases, be accompanied by a Transfer to the transferee of all rights of the Company in respect of any outstanding indebtedness owing by the Company to the Member. Any purported Transfer not permitted under this Section 6 will be treated in accordance with Section 2.10(a).

6.3 Withdrawal. The Member may withdraw or resign from the Company only in connection with a Transfer to a successor member that is the transferee of both the entire Membership Interest and any indebtedness owed to the Member in accordance with Section 2.10 and this Article 6 regardless of any provision of the Act to the contrary.
