The Company also proposes to grant to the Underwriters an option to purchase up to the additional principal amount of securities set forth in Schedule II hereto to cover over-allotments, if any (the “Option Securities”; the Option Securities, together with the Underwritten Securities, being hereinafter called the “Securities”). The Company’s obligations under the Securities, including the due and punctual payment of interest on the Securities, will be unconditionally guaranteed (each, a “Guarantee” and collectively, the “Guarantees”) by each of the Company’s subsidiaries listed in Schedule I hereto (the “Guarantors”). References in this Agreement to the Securities shall mean, where the context so requires, the Securities and the related Guarantees. The Securities are convertible, at the option of the Company, into shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company, cash or a combination thereof at the conversion rate set forth and as described in the Final Prospectus.

To the extent there are no additional Underwriters listed on Schedule III other than you, the term Representatives as used herein shall mean you, as Underwriters, and the terms Representatives and Underwriters shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires. Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 which were filed under the Exchange Act on or before the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, as the case may be; and any reference herein to the terms

statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to (i) that part of the Registration Statement which shall constitute the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification (Form T-1) under the Trust Indenture Act of the Trustee or (ii) the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus (or any supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus (or any supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8 hereof.

(e) (i) At the earliest time after the filing of the Registration Statement that the Company or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2)) of the Securities and (ii) as of the Execution Time (with such date being used as the determination date for purposes of this clause (ii)), the Company was not and is not an Ineligible Issuer (as defined in Rule 405), without taking account of any determination by the Commission pursuant to Rule 405 that it is not necessary that the Company be considered an Ineligible Issuer.

(h) All the outstanding shares of capital stock of each subsidiary have been duly and validly authorized and issued and are fully paid and nonassessable, and, except as otherwise set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, all outstanding shares of capital stock of the subsidiaries are owned by the Company either directly or through wholly owned subsidiaries free and clear of any perfected security interest or any other security interests, claims, liens or encumbrances, except for any restrictions pursuant to that certain First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated September 8, 2008, by and among the Company, the Lenders (as defined therein), National City Bank, as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), PNC Bank, National Association, as documentation agent for the Lenders and Citibank, N.A.

4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the several Underwriters propose to offer the Securities for sale to the public as set forth in the Final Prospectus.

5. Agreements. The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree with the several Underwriters that:

(a) Prior to the termination of the offering of the Securities, the Company will not file any amendment of the Registration Statement or supplement (including the Final Prospectus or any Preliminary Prospectus) to the Base Prospectus unless the Company has furnished you a copy for your review prior to filing and will not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which you reasonably object. The Company will cause the Final Prospectus, properly completed, and any supplement thereto to be filed in a form approved by the Representatives with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) within the time period prescribed and will provide evidence satisfactory to the Representatives of such timely filing. The Company will promptly advise the Representatives (i) when the Final Prospectus, and any supplement thereto, shall have been filed (if required) with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b), (ii) when, prior to termination of the offering of the Securities, any amendment to the Registration Statement shall have been filed or become effective, (iii) of any request by the Commission or its staff for any amendment of the Registration Statement, or for any supplement to the Final Prospectus or for any additional information, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any notice objecting to its use or the

institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and (v) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or the occurrence of any such suspension or objection to the use of the Registration Statement and, upon such issuance, occurrence or notice of objection, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal of such stop order or relief from such occurrence or objection, including, if necessary, by filing an amendment to the Registration Statement or a new registration statement and using its best efforts to have such amendment or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable.

(b) The Company will prepare a final term sheet, containing solely a description of final terms of the Securities and the related Guarantees and the offering thereof, in the form approved by you and attached as Schedule V hereto and will file such term sheet pursuant to Rule 433(d) within the time required by such rule.

(c) If, at any time prior to the filing of the Final Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b), any event occurs as a result of which the Disclosure Package would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made or the circumstances then prevailing not misleading, the Company will (i) notify promptly the Representatives so that any use of the Disclosure Package may cease until it is amended or supplemented; (ii) amend or supplement the Disclosure Package to correct such statement or omission; and (iii) supply any amendment or supplement to you in such quantities as you may reasonably request.

(d) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Securities is required to be delivered under the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), any event occurs as a result of which the Final Prospectus as then supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made at such time not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement, file a new registration statement or supplement the Final Prospectus to comply with the Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, including in connection with use or delivery of the Final Prospectus, the Company promptly will (i) notify the Representatives of any such event, (ii) prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the second sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 5, an amendment or supplement or new registration statement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance, (iii) use its best efforts to have any amendment to the Registration Statement or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable in order to avoid any disruption in use of the Final Prospectus and (iv) supply any supplemented Final Prospectus to you in such quantities as you may reasonably request.

(e) As soon as practicable, the Company will make generally available to its security holders and to the Representatives an earnings statement or statements of the

Company and its subsidiaries which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158.

(f) The Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters, without charge, photocopies of the manually signed copy of the Registration Statement (including exhibits thereto) and to each other Underwriter a copy of the Registration Statement (without exhibits thereto) and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by an Underwriter or dealer may be required by the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), as many copies of each Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and any supplement thereto as the Representatives may reasonably request. The Company will pay the expenses of printing or other production of all documents relating to the offering.

(g) The Company will arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Securities and the related Guarantees for sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Securities; provided that in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Securities or subject itself to taxation, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

(h) The Company agrees that, unless it has or shall have obtained the prior written consent of the Representatives, and each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees with the Company that, unless it has or shall have obtained, as the case may be, the prior written consent of the Company, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities and the related Guarantees that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405) required to be filed by the Company with the Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433; other than a free writing prospectus containing the information contained in the final term sheet specified in Section 5(b) hereof, provided that the prior written consent of the parties hereto shall be deemed to have been given in respect of the Free Writing Prospectuses included in Schedule IV hereto and any electronic road show. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Representatives or the Company is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The Company agrees that (x) it has treated and will treat, as the case may be, each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and (y) it has complied and will comply, as the case may be, with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including in respect of timely filing with the Commission, legending and record keeping.

(i) The Company will not, and will not permit the Guarantors to, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or

effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise) by the Company or any affiliate of the Company or any person in privity with the Company or any affiliate of the Company), directly or indirectly, including the filing (or participation in the filing) of a registration statement with the Commission in respect of, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, any other shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock; or publicly announce an intention to effect any such transaction, until the Business Day set forth on Schedule II hereto, provided, however, that the Company may issue and sell Common Stock pursuant to any employee stock option plan, stock ownership plan or dividend reinvestment plan of the Company in effect at the Execution Time and the Company may issue Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of securities or the exercise of warrants outstanding at the Execution Time.

(j) The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities.

(k) The Company will reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive rights, the full number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities.

(l) Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, the Company will not do or authorize any act or thing that would result in an adjustment of the conversion rate in respect of the Securities.

(m) The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay the costs and expenses relating to the following matters: (i) the preparation, printing or reproduction and filing with the Commission of the Registration Statement (including financial statements and exhibits thereto), each Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, and each amendment or supplement to any of them; (ii) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery (including postage, air freight charges and charges for counting and packaging) of such copies of the Registration Statement, each Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, and all amendments or supplements to any of them, as may, in each case, be reasonably requested for use in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities and the related Guarantees; (iii) the preparation, printing, authentication, issuance and delivery of certificates for the Securities and the related Guarantees, including any stamp or transfer taxes in connection with the original issuance and sale of the Securities; (iv) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery of this Agreement, any blue sky memorandum and all other agreements or documents printed (or reproduced) and delivered in connection with the offering of the Securities; (v) the registration of the Securities under the Exchange Act; (vi) any registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of the several states (including filing fees and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters relating to such registration and qualification); (vii) any filings

required to be made with FINRA (including filing fees and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters relating to such filings); (viii) the transportation and other expenses incurred by or on behalf of Company representatives in connection with presentations to prospective purchasers of the Securities; (ix) the fees and expenses of the Company’s accountants and the fees and expenses of counsel (including local and special counsel) for the Company; (x) the fees and expenses of the Trustee; and (xi) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance by the Company and the Guarantors of their respective obligations hereunder.

(d) The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives a certificate of the Company, signed by the Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer or the President and the principal financial or accounting officer of the Company, dated the Closing Date, to the effect that the signers of such certificate have carefully examined the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Final Prospectus and any

(i) the representations and warranties of the Company and each Guarantor in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date and the Company and each Guarantor has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date;

(f) The Company shall have requested and caused PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to have furnished to the Representatives, at the Execution Time and at the Closing Date, letters, (which may refer to letters previously delivered to one or more of the Representatives), dated respectively as of the Execution Time and as of the Closing Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives, confirming that they are independent accountants within the meaning of the Act and the Exchange Act and the respective applicable rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder and that they have performed a review of the unaudited interim financial information of the Company for the three-month, six-month and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010, and September 30, 2010 and as at September 30, 2010, in accordance with Statement on Auditing Standards No. 100, and substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit C.

7. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the sale of the Securities and the related Guarantees provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company or any Guarantor to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally will reimburse the Underwriters severally through FBR or Citigroup Global Markets Inc. on demand for all expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities and the related Guarantees.

8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) Each of the Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees and agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Securities as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or any other preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the Securities and the related Guarantees, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the information contained in the final term sheet required to be prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5(b) hereof, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and jointly and severally agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantors will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or Guarantors by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

(b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantors, each of their respective directors, each of their respective officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company or the Guarantors within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Guarantors to each Underwriter, but only with reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that the

statements set forth (i) in the last paragraph of the cover page regarding delivery of the Securities and, under the heading “Underwriting”, (ii) the list of Underwriters and their respective participation in the sale of the Securities, (iii) the sentences related to concessions and reallowances and (iv) the paragraph related to stabilization, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in any Preliminary Prospectus and the Final Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company, the Guarantors and the Underwriters severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending the same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company, the Guarantors and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities and the Guarantees; provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the Securities) be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company, the Guarantors and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Final Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company, the Guarantors and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company or any Guarantor who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company or any Guarantor shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

9. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance

of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule III hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule III hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter or the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company and any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such delivery and payment (i) trading in the Company’s Common Stock shall have been suspended by the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange or trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchange, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal or New York State authorities or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities and the related Guarantees as contemplated by any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company, the Guarantors or their respective officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company, any Guarantor or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities and the related Guarantees. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

12. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representatives, will be mailed, delivered or telefaxed to FBR Capital Markets & Co.

13. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers, directors, employees, agents and controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder.

• copies of each of the Applicable Contracts (as defined below);

• certificates of public officials regarding the incorporation, formation, qualification, good standing or subsistence of the Company, the Guarantors and the Company’s subsidiaries listed on Schedules I and II hereto; and

• Bring-down certificates, dated December , 2010 from the Secretary of State of the State of Ohio as to the good standing of each of the Guarantors.

We have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records of the Company and the Guarantors and such agreements, certificates and receipts of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company, the Guarantors, and others, and such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth below. In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies.

With respect to documents reviewed by us, we have relied, to the extent we deemed appropriate, without verification, on the accuracy of material factual matters contained therein, including the representations and warranties of the parties thereto (but not on any legal conclusions contained therein).

As used herein, (i) “Applicable Contracts” means those agreements or instruments identified in Schedule III hereto, which the Company has represented to us lists all material agreements and instruments to the which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject; (ii) “Applicable Laws” means those statutes, laws, rules and regulations of the State of Ohio, the State of New York and those federal statutes, laws, rules and regulations of the United States of America, in each case that, in our experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement (other than state securities or blue sky laws and the rules and regulations of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. as to which we express no opinion), but without our having made any special investigation as to the applicability of any specific law, rule or regulation; (iii) “Governmental Authorities” means any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body of the State of Ohio, the State of New York or any federal executive, legislative, judicial, administrative or regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Company under Applicable Laws; (iv) “Governmental Approval” means any consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, qualification or registration with, any Governmental Authority required to be made or obtained by the Company pursuant to Applicable Laws, other than any consent, approval, license, authorization, validation, filing, qualification or registration that may have become applicable as a result of the involvement of any party (other than the Company) in the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement or because of such

FBR Capital Markets & Co.

Page 4

parties’ legal or regulatory status or because of any other facts specifically pertaining to such parties; and (v) “Applicable Orders” means those judgments, orders or decrees identified in the Officer’s Certificates to be applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, the 2005 Settlement with the U.S. Department of Energy.

In the phrase “to our knowledge,” or “known to us,” or any variation thereof, our knowledge is limited to the actual knowledge of the lawyers currently with the firm who have participated in our representation of the Company in connection with the offering of the Securities and the transactions contemplated thereby, gained through the performance of such representation and after consultation with any other appropriate lawyers in the firm and review of such documents in our possession as such lawyers considered appropriate. Except as expressly set forth herein, we have not undertaken any independent investigation (including, without limitation, conducting any review, search, or investigation of any public files or records or dockets) to determine the existence or absence of such facts and no inference as to our knowledge concerning such facts should be drawn from the fact that such representation has been undertaken by us. This opinion deals only with the specific legal issues that it explicitly addresses and no opinions shall be implied as to matters not so addressed.

We have assumed, with your permission, the due authorization of the Underwriting Agreement, Indentures and Securities by all parties thereto other than the Company and the Guarantors, as the case may be, the due execution and delivery of the Underwriting Agreement, Indentures and Securities by all parties thereto other than the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be (collectively, the “Counter-Parties”), and that the Underwriting Agreement, Indentures and Securities (after giving effect to the due execution and delivery by the Company and the Guarantors, as the case may be) constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Counter-Parties thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with their terms.

We express no opinion with respect to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of, or that a party will be entitled to the benefit of:

(a) provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, Indentures, Guarantees, and Securities (the “Enforceability Documents”) (i) which waive any rights afforded to any party thereto under any statute or constitutional provision, (ii) which waive broadly or vaguely stated rights or future rights, or waive certain rights or defenses to obligations where such waivers are against statutes, laws or public policy, (iii) that provide that rights or remedies are not exclusive, that every right or remedy is cumulative and may be exercised in addition to or with any other right or remedy, or that the election of some remedy or remedies does not preclude recourse to one or more other remedies, or (iv) that provide that injunctive relief or specific performance may be available as a remedy for breach of such agreements.

(b) any provision of the Enforceability Documents that purports to (i) preclude the modification or amendment of such agreements through oral modification, waiver, estoppel, conduct, custom, or course of performance, action or dealing or (ii) waive or limit a party’s liability for negligent acts or omissions. In addition, our opinions are subject to the effect of

judicial decisions which may permit the introduction of extrinsic evidence to interpret the terms of written contracts, such as the Enforceability Documents;

(c) any provisions of the Enforceability Documents relating to conflicts of law, venue, choice of forum, choice of law (we have assumed that the choice of New York law to govern the Enforceability Documents and the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder are enforceable), or the waiver of the right to a trial by jury;

(d) any provisions for liquidated damages, default interest, late charges, monetary penalties, make-whole premiums or other economic remedies to the extent such provisions are deemed to constitute a penalty;

(e) the provisions of the Indentures waiving rights or defenses;

(f) any grant of set-off rights;

(g) any provision which purports to shift the burden of proof or modify rules of evidence;

(h) the remedial, waiver and other provisions of the Enforceability Documents that may be further subject to the exercise of judicial discretion;

(i) any provision contained in Enforceability Documents providing for rights of indemnity or contribution to a party for its own action or inaction to the extent such action or inaction is wrongful, willful, reckless, grossly negligent or unlawful, or where such indemnification or contribution is contrary to applicable law or public policy; and

(j) provisions prohibiting, restricting or requiring consent to assignment or transfer of any right or property.

Additionally, opinions relating to the enforceability of the Guarantees of the Securities are qualified to the extent that the obligations of the Guarantors thereunder may be subject to a variety of suretyship defenses which generally may be raised by guarantors or sureties.

We express no opinion on the effect of any documents that we have not reviewed and have deemed not to be necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion on the Enforceability Documents or any of the opinions set forth herein or the severability, if invalid, of any of provisions of the Enforceability Documents.

Our opinions as to enforceability are subject to:

(a) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, preference, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors or for the relief of debtors generally;

(b) the effect of general principles of equity, whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law or in a bankruptcy proceeding (including the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief), concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought;

(c) judicial decisions which indicate that public policy may render unenforceable provisions respecting payment of costs and expenses of enforcement, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees.

The opinions set forth below are subject to the following further qualifications, assumptions and limitations:

(a) the opinions expressed herein are limited to matters governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, the State of New York and the Federal laws of the United States of America which are, in our experience, generally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture (other than state securities or blue sky laws and the rules and regulations of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, as to which we express no opinion);

(b) we note that certain of the Applicable Contracts are governed by laws other than the Applicable Laws; our opinions expressed herein are based solely upon our understanding of the plain language of such agreement or instrument, and we do not express any opinion with respect to the validity, binding nature or enforceability of any such agreement or instrument, and we do not assume any responsibility with respect to the effect on the opinions or statements set forth herein of any interpretation thereof inconsistent with such understanding;

(c) for purposes of our opinion in paragraph 2 below relating to due incorporation, valid existence and qualification to do business and good standing, we have relied exclusively on the certificates of public officials previously identified and such opinion is not intended to provide any conclusion or assurance beyond that conveyed in those certificates or written correspondences, as the case may be;

(d) we express no opinion as to the ordinances, statutes, administrative decisions, orders, rules and regulations of any municipality, county or other political subdivision of any state (as opposed to the laws of the state itself); and

(e) we assume that the execution, delivery and performance by each of the Company and each Guarantor of any of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement, Indenture or Securities, as the case may be, does not and will not conflict with, contravene, violate or constitute a default under (A) any lease, indenture, instrument or other agreement to which the Company or any Guarantor is subject (other than the Applicable Contracts as to which we express our opinion in paragraph 14 below), (B) any rule, law or regulation to which the Company or any Guarantor is subject (other than the Applicable Laws as to which we express our opinion in paragraph 14 below, or (C) any judicial or administrative order or decree of any governmental authority, agency or instrumentality or court applicable to the Company or to any Guarantor (other than the Applicable Orders as to which we express our opinion in paragraph 14 below).

(f) our opinion with respect to the statements set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus under the caption “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” in paragraph 16 below is based on our best judgment regarding the application of the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, of the regulations promulgated thereunder and of published rulings and procedures and judicial decisions Our opinion is not binding upon the Internal Revenue Service or the courts, and there is no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service would not successfully assert a contrary position as to any matter addressed by our opinion in paragraph 16 below;

(g) our opinion in paragraph 14 below is limited to any consent, approval, authorization, filing with or order of Governmental Authorities required to be made or obtained by the Company or any Guarantor pursuant to Applicable Laws, other than any consent, approval, authorization, filing, or order that may have become applicable as a result of the involvement of any party (other than the Company or any Guarantor) in the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement or because of such party’s legal or regulatory status or because of any other facts specifically pertaining to such party;

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject to the additional qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act; any required filing of the Base Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, and any supplements thereto, pursuant to Rule 424(b) has been made in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b); and we have been orally advised by the Commission that no order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and, to our knowledge, no proceeding for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act against the Company or in connection with the offering is pending or threatened by the Commission. The Registration Statement, when it became effective, the Preliminary Prospectus, as of 4:30 p.m. New York City Time on December , 2010, and the Prospectus Supplement, as of December , 2010 and the Indenture as of December , 2010 and as of the date hereof, appeared on their face to have been appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements for such documents of (i) the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder and (ii) the Trust Indenture Act and the rules thereunder, except that we express no opinion as to the financial statements, schedules, and other financial and statistical data and information contained therein or excluded therefrom.

2. The Company and each Guarantor is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Ohio, with the corporate power and authority to own or lease its respective properties and conduct its respective business as described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. The Company is qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing (or equivalent status) in the states listed in Schedule I attached hereto. Each of the subsidiaries of the Company listed on Schedule II attached hereto (which the Company has represented to us lists each actively operating domestic subsidiary) is a corporation validly existing and in good standing (or equivalent status) under the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation noted for each on Schedule II.

3. All outstanding shares of capital stock or equivalent member interests or units of the subsidiaries listed on Schedule II hereto are held of record by the Company or one or more direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.

4. The Company’s authorized capital stock is as set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the heading “Description of RTI Capital Stock.” The statements set forth in the Prospectus under the caption “Description of RTI Capital Stock” and the information in the Registration Statement under Item 15, in each case to the extent that such information purports to constitute summaries of the terms of the authorized capital stock of the Company, the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) or the Company’s Amended Code of Regulations (the “Code of Regulations”) or certain provisions of the laws of the State of Ohio, are accurate and fair in all material respects.

5. Each of the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized by the Company and, when the Base Indenture and Supplemental Indenture are executed and delivered by the Company, the Indenture will constitute a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. The Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized by the Guarantors and, when the Supplemental Indenture is executed and delivered by the Guarantors, each of the Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture (with respect to the rights and obligations of “Subsidiary Guarantors” (as defined in the Base Indenture) thereunder) will constitute a valid and binding agreement of the Guarantors, enforceable against the Guarantors in accordance with its terms.

6. The Securities being issued on the date hereof have been duly authorized by the Company and, when executed and delivered by the Company, executed and authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and delivered to and paid for by the Underwriters, will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

7. The Guarantees have been duly authorized by each Guarantor and when the Guarantees have been executed and delivered by the Guarantors, the Securities have been authenticated in the manner provided for in the Indenture, and the Securities have been delivered to any paid for by the Underwriters, the Guarantees will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Guarantors, enforceable against the Guarantors in accordance with their terms and will be entitled to the benefits of the Supplemental Indenture.

8. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance upon such conversion by all necessary corporate action of the Company and, when issued upon such conversion in accordance with the terms of the Securities, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will conform to the description thereof in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus. To our knowledge, the issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Securities will not be subject to any statutory or, to our knowledge, other currently existing pre-emptive rights of any securityholders of the Company.

9. The Securities and the Guarantees conform in all material respects to the respective descriptions thereof contained in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus.

10. To our knowledge, there is no pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries or its or their property, of a character required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement which is not disclosed in the Prospectus.

11. The Underwriting Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the Guarantors.

12. Each of the Company and each Guarantor is not, and solely after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities being issued on the date hereof and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Prospectus, will not be an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940.

13. No consent, approval, authorization, filing with or order of Governmental Authorities is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Company or any of the Guarantors of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees, the compliance by the Company or any of the Guarantors with the terms thereof, the issuance and sale of the Underwritten Securities and any Option Securities being issued on the date hereof and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees, except for such consents, approvals, authorizations, orders and registrations or qualifications as have been obtained or made prior to the date hereof or as may be required under applicable state securities laws in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Securities by the Underwriters, as to which we express no opinion.

14. None of the execution and delivery of the Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees, the issuance of the shares of Common Stock or other consideration upon conversion of the Securities nor the Company’s or any Guarantor’s compliance with the terms of the Indenture or the Underwriting Agreement will conflict with, result in a breach or violation of, or result in the imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to, (i) the Articles of Incorporation or Code of Regulations of the Company or the articles of incorporation or equivalent document, as applicable, or code of regulations or equivalent document, as applicable, of any of its subsidiaries, (ii) the terms of any of the Applicable Contracts, or (iii) any applicable United States or State of Ohio statute, law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental body, arbitrator or other authority having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of its or their properties, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for any such conflict, breach, violation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Re:		RTI International Metals, Inc. $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of % Convertible Senior Notes due 2015

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to RTI International Metals, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Underwriting Agreement, dated December 8, 2009 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between you, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), and the Company, relating to the sale by the Company to the Underwriters of $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of % Convertible Senior Notes due 2015 (plus up to an additional $30,000,000 aggregate principal amount to cover over-allotments, if any) (the “Notes”), the guarantee of the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes (the “Guarantee”) by four domestic subsidiaries of the Company (the “Guarantors”) and the issuance of shares of Company Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, upon conversion of the Notes (the “Common Stock” and collectively with the Notes, the “Securities”). This letter is being furnished to you pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Underwriting Agreement.

The registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-_______) of the Company relating to the Securities and other securities filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on December 8, 2010, allowing for delayed offerings pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including information deemed to be a part of the registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act (the “Rules and Regulations”), is herein collectively referred to as the “Registration Statement.” The prospectus, dated December 8, 2010, which forms a part of and is included in the Registration Statement, is herein referred to as the “Base Prospectus.” The preliminary prospectus supplement, dated December 8, 2010, together with the Base Prospectus, relating to the offering of the Securities is herein referred to as the “Preliminary Prospectus.” The prospectus supplement, dated December 8, 2010, together with the Base Prospectus, relating to the offering of the Securities, in the form filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations, is herein referred to as the

“Prospectus.” Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 which were filed under the Exchange Act on or before the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be. Each capitalized term used herein and not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the Underwriting Agreement.

The primary purpose of our professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters or financial or quantitative information. Therefore, we are not passing upon and do not assume responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (except to the extent expressly set forth in numbered paragraph 4 of our opinion letter to you of even date herewith with respect to the information regarding the Company’s capital stock set forth in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the caption “Description of RTI Capital Stock” and expressly set forth in numbered paragraph 16 of our opinion letter to you of even date herewith with respect to the information set forth in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the caption “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” insofar as such statements purport to describe provisions of law or legal conclusions referred to therein), and have not made an independent check or verification thereof. However, in the course of acting as special counsel to the Company, we participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Company, representatives of the independent registered public accountants of the Company and with representatives of the Underwriters and counsel for the Underwriters during which the contents of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and related matters were discussed. We also reviewed and relied upon certain corporate records and documents, letters from counsel and accountants, and oral and written statements of officers and other representatives of the Company and others as to the existence and consequence of certain factual and other matters. Based on our participation, review and reliance as described above, we advise you that no facts came to our attention that caused us to believe that:

	•		the Registration Statement, on the Effective Date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

	•		the Prospectus as of its date and the date hereof contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or

	•		the Disclosure Package at the Execution Time contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

it being understood that we express no advice or belief as to the financial statements, schedules and other financial and statistical data included or incorporated by reference therein, or excluded therefrom. When we state that no facts came to our attention, this is limited to the actual knowledge of the lawyers of the firm who have participated in our representation of the Company in connection with the offering of the Securities and the transactions contemplated

thereby, gained through the performance of such representation and after consultation with any other appropriate lawyers, including all lawyers of the firm who have worked on any matters on behalf of the Company.

This letter and the statements expressed herein are as of the date hereof. We assume no obligation to update or supplement this letter to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention.

This letter is furnished only to you as representatives of the Underwriters and is solely for the Underwriters’ benefit in connection with the closing occurring today and the offering of the Securities, in each case pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement. Without our prior written consent, this letter may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose or relied upon by, or assigned to, any other person for any purpose, including any other person that acquires Securities or that seeks to assert your rights in respect of this letter (other than an Underwriters’ successor in interest by means of merger, consolidation, transfer of a business or other similar transaction).

December 7, 2010

RTI International Metals, Inc.

and

Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. and FBR Capital Markets & Co.
as representatives of the several underwriters

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have audited:

	1.		the consolidated financial statements of RTI International Metals, Inc. (the “Company”) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009 incorporated by reference in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (the “Form 10-K”), and

	2.		the related financial statement schedule included in the Form 10-K, and

	3.		the effectiveness of the Company’s Internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009.

The consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule referred to above are all incorporated by reference in the registration statement (No. 333-XXXX) on Form S-3 filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”); our report with respect thereto is also incorporated by reference in such registration statement. Such registration statement and the preliminary prospectus supplement dated December 7, 2010 is herein referred to as the “Registration Statement.”

In connection with the Registration Statement:

1.		We are an independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”).

2.		In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule audited by us and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.

3.		We have not audited any financial statements of the Company as of any date or for any period subsequent to December 31, 2009; although we have conducted an audit for the year ended December 31, 2009, the purpose (and therefore the scope) of such audit was to enable us to express our opinion on the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2009 and for the year then ended, but not on the financial statements for any interim period within such year. Therefore, we are unable to and do not express any opinion on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, of cash flows and of shareholders’ equity included in the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010, and September 30, 2010, respectively,

		incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, or on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows as of any date or for any period subsequent to December 31, 2009. Also, we have not audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of any date subsequent to December 31, 2009. Therefore, we do not express any opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of any date subsequent to December 31, 2009.

4.		For purposes of this letter, we have read the minutes of the 2010 meetings of the stockholders, the Disclosure Committee, the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors of the Company and its subsidiaries as set forth in the minute books at December 3, 2010, officials of the Company having advised us that the minutes of all such meetings through that date were set forth therein, and have carried out other procedures to December 3, 2010 as follows:

With respect to the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and the three- and nine- month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we have:

	(i)		performed the procedures (completed on May 5,2010, August 4, 2010, and November 3, 2010, respectively) specified by the PCAOB for a review of interim financial information as described in PCAOB AU 722, Interim Financial Information, on the unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010, and 2009, included in the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010, and September 30, 2010 incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement; and

	(ii)		inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters whether the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements referred to in a.(i) above comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as it applies to Form 10-Q and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.

With respect to the period from October 1, 2010 to October 31, 2010, we have:

	(i)		read the unaudited consolidated financial data of the Company and subsidiaries for October of both 2010 and 2009 furnished us by the Company, officials of the Company having advised us that no such financial data as of any date or for any period subsequent to October 31, 2010 were available. The financial information for October of both 2010 and 2009 is incomplete in that it omits the statement of cash flows and other disclosures.

	(ii)		inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters as to whether the unaudited consolidated financial data referred to in b.(i) above are stated on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited consolidated financial statements incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

		The foregoing procedures do not constitute an audit conducted in accordance with standards of the PCAOB. Also, they would not necessarily reveal matters of significance with respect to the comments in the following paragraph. Accordingly, we make no representations as to the sufficiency of the foregoing procedures for your purposes.

5.		Nothing came to our attention as a result of the foregoing procedures, however, that caused us to believe that:

a. (i)

Any material modifications should be made to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements described In 4.a.(i), incorporated by reference in the Registration

Statement, for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

(ii)

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements described in 4.a.(i) do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as it applies to Form 10-Q and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.

b. (i)

At October 31, 2010 there was any change in the capital stock, increase in long-term debt, or decrease in consolidated net current assets (working capital) or shareholders’ equity of the Company and subsidiaries consolidated as compared with amounts shown in the September 30, 2010 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, or (ii) for the period from October 1, 2010 to October 31, 2010, there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in consolidated net sales except in all instances for changes, increases or decreases which the Registration Statement discloses have occurred or may occur and except that the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2010, which we were furnished by the Company, showed a decrease from September 30, 2010 in consolidated net current assets (working capital) as follows (in thousands of dollars)


Balance Sheet	September 30, 2010		October 31, 2010		Change

Net current assets	$	398,297	$	393,973	$	(4,324	)

6.		As mentioned in 4.b., Company officials have advised us that no consolidated financial data as of any date or for any period subsequent to October 31, 2010 are available; accordingly, the procedures carried out by us with respect to changes in financial statement items after October 31, 2010 have, of necessity, been even more limited than those with respect to the periods referred to in 4. We have Inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters as to whether (a) at December 3, 2010 there was any change in the common stock or increase in long-term debt of the Company and subsidiaries consolidated as compared with amounts shown in the September 30, 2010 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement. On the basis of these inquiries and our reading of the minutes as described in 4, nothing came to our attention that caused us to believe that there was any such change, increase or decrease, except in all instances for changes, increases or decreases which the Registration Statement discloses have occurred or may occur.

7.
