2.1 SHARES. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing Seller will sell and transfer the Shares to Buyer, and Buyer will purchase the Shares from Seller.

2.2 CONSIDERATION.

(a) The total consideration payable by Buyer for the purchase of the Shares (the “Purchase Price”) shall be (i) $45,320,000 minus (ii) any Indebtedness other than Permitted Indebtedness of the Acquired Companies that Seller shall not have repaid in full pursuant to Section 6.3(b) that is outstanding as of the Closing Date (including the unpaid principal, accrued and unpaid interest, any premium (including any prepayment penalties or other charges payable by reason of the prepayment of such Indebtedness on the Closing Date) and other charges payable in connection therewith) and (iii) either (A) plus 55% of the Positive Net Assets Adjustment or (B) minus 55% of the Negative Net Assets Adjustment.

(b) At least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the chief financial officer of Seller shall certify in writing to Buyer the estimated amount of the Indebtedness, Permitted Indebtedness, Closing Date Net Assets and, based thereon, a preliminary calculation of the Net Assets Adjustment and the adjustment for Indebtedness. As soon as practicable prior to the Closing Date and based on the certification referred to above, Buyer and Seller shall jointly calculate the amount of the Purchase Price to be paid at Closing subject to adjustment as provided for in Section 2.2(c) (the “Preliminary Purchase Price”). The Closing shall occur and the payments to be made at Closing as provided for in Section 2.4 shall be based upon the notice provided for herein, and upon such joint calculations.

(c) As promptly as possible and in any event, not later than 30 days after the Closing, the Company, under the direction of Buyer after consultation with Seller, shall prepare and deliver initially to Buyer and Buyer’s Accountants (i) financial statements of the Company including a consolidated balance sheet (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) and an income statement with consolidating schedule of the Acquired Companies as of the Closing Date in accordance with GAAP which shall be subject to an audit or review by Buyer’s Accountants and (ii) a supplemental report setting forth the Indebtedness, the Permitted Indebtedness, Closing Date Net Assets and, based thereon, the Net Assets Adjustment (identified as either the Positive Net Assets Adjustment or the Negative Net Assets Adjustment), and the adjustment for Indebtedness (the “Closing Adjustments”), each of which shall be reported on by Buyer’s Accountants (the “Closing Date Financial Report”). The Closing Date Financial Report shall reflect a physical inventory conducted in accordance with subsection (e) of this Section 2.2 with any necessary adjustments required to reflect any changes from the date of the inventory and the Closing Date. Any third-party expenses or fees incurred by Company in preparing or in connection with the Closing Date Financial Report and the Closing Adjustment (including the fees of Buyer’s Accountants) shall be borne by the Company. The Company and Buyer’s Accountants shall make available any work papers or other information relating to the Closing Date Financial Report then or thereafter requested by Seller. Any expenses incurred by Seller’s Accountants in reviewing the Closing Date Financial Report, such work papers and other information and in providing

Seller with its report thereon shall be borne by the Company. If Seller does not object, or otherwise fails to respond, to the Closing Date Financial Report within 30 days after delivery to Seller, such Closing Date Financial Report shall automatically become final and conclusive. In the event that Seller objects to the Closing Date Financial Report within such 30 day review period, Seller and Buyer shall promptly meet and endeavor to reach agreement as to the content of the Closing Date Financial Report. If Seller and Buyer agree on the content of the Closing Date Financial Report, such Closing Date Financial Report shall become final and conclusive. If Seller and Buyer are unable to reach agreement within 30 days after the end of Seller’s 30 day review period, then the Independent Accountants shall promptly be retained to undertake a determination of the Closing Date Financial Report, which determination shall be made as quickly as possible (it being understood that the parties shall direct the Independent Accountants to complete their work within 30 days). Only disputed items shall be submitted to the Independent Accountants for review. In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Accountants may not assign a value to such item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the lowest value for such item claimed by either party, in each case as presented to the Independent Accountants. Such determination of the Independent Accountants shall be final and binding on Seller and Buyer, and all expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer. The Purchase Price and the payments required to be made after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 2.2(d) shall be finally determined on the basis of the Closing Date Financial Report and the Closing Adjustment.

(d) Within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of the Closing Adjustments, Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall pay to the other the amount by which the Purchase Price, as adjusted by the Closing Adjustments, is greater or less than the Preliminary Purchase Price (such difference being the “Closing Purchase Price Reconciliation”). If the Closing Purchase Price Reconciliation is positive, Buyer shall pay such difference to Seller. If the Closing Purchase Price Reconciliation is negative, Seller shall pay such difference to Buyer. If (i) Buyer fails to pay any amount owing to Seller pursuant to this subsection (d) or (ii) Seller fails to pay any amount owing to Buyer pursuant to this subsection (d), within the specified five (5) Business Day period, then the amount so owing shall be payable on demand and interest shall accrue on the unpaid amount at the rate of 18% per annum.

(e) The target date for the physical inventory referred to in subsection (c) above is August 24, 2002, except for Italy, which is on or about August 10, 2002. Buyer agrees to notify Seller by August 2, 2002 if it appears that the approval of the European Commission will not be received by August 22, 2002, in which case the date of the physical inventory will be postponed by mutual agreement of the parties to a date that is closer to the Closing Date but in no event earlier than 35 days prior to a new target Closing Date. The physical inventory will be taken as by the employees of the Acquired Companies under the direction of Buyer, after consultation with Seller who shall have the right to be present thereat.

(f) (i) Subject to clause (ii) of this Section 2.2(f), if any Accounts Receivable that are included in the Closing Balance Sheet and taken into account in calculating the Net Assets Adjustment are not collected in full within later of 180 days after the Closing or 90 days after the due date (the aggregate amount of any such uncollected Accounts Receivable less any reserve for doubtful

accounts being herein referred to as the “Shortfall Amount”), Buyer shall promptly notify Seller in writing as to the Shortfall Amount. Within five (5) Business Days after delivery of such notice, unless Seller disputes the amount thereof, Seller shall pay Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to the Shortfall Amount. The receivables in question will then be transferred to Seller and Buyer agrees to provide any reasonable assistance requested by Seller to collect said receivables. For purposes hereof, it is understood that the Accounts Receivable included in the current assets to be set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet will be net of any reserve for doubtful accounts. Any disputes as to the Shortfall Amount shall be submitted to and resolved by the Independent Accountants in the same manner as provided for in Section 2.2(c).

(ii) Buyer acknowledges Seller's disclosure that the aggregate amount of the Accounts Receivable on the Balance Sheet includes two Accounts Receivable (the “Showa A/R’s”) the sum of which is, on the date hereof, approximately $1,265,000, which arise out of a Contract that Livernois (one of the Heat Transfer Existing Subsidiaries) has performed (the “Showa Contract”). Seller agrees that, notwithstanding clause (i) of this Section 2.2(f), if the Showa A/R’s are not collected in full prior to the Closing, (A) the amount of any shortfall in collecting the Showa A/R’s shall not be included as a current asset on the Closing Balance Sheet used in the determination of the Closing Date Net Assets and (B) the Company shall cause Livernois to assign its rights to collect the Showa A/R’s or the shortfall to Seller. Buyer agrees to provide Buyer any reasonable assistance requested by Seller to collect the Showa A/R’s or any shortfall amount thereunder.

The purchase and sale (the “Closing”) provided for in this Agreement will take place at the offices of Seller in Dallas, Texas, at 10:00 a.m. (local time) as soon as all of the conditions to Closing set forth in Articles 7 and 8 have been or can be satisfied, on a date that, subject to the foregoing, will be reasonably specified by Buyer by written notice to Seller at least five (5) Business Days in advance or at such other time and place as the parties may agree. Subject to the provisions of Section 9, failure to consummate the purchase and sale provided for in this Agreement on the date and time and at the place determined pursuant to this Section 2.3 will not result in the termination of this Agreement and will not relieve any party of any obligation under this Agreement.

Once completed, a detailed income statement for the completed contract and the adjustment for any losses incurred (the “Contract Loss Adjustment”), will be prepared in accordance with GAAP which shall be subject to an audit or review by Seller’s Accountants. The Company shall make available any work papers or other information relating to the Contract Loss Adjustment then or thereafter requested by Seller’s Accountants. If Seller does not object, or otherwise fails to respond, to the Contract Loss Adjustment within 30 days after delivery to Seller, such Contract Loss Adjustment shall automatically become final and conclusive and shall be payable by Seller to Company within ten (10) Business Days.

the Independent Accountants. Such determination of the Independent Accountants shall be final and binding on Seller and Buyer, and all expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer. The payments required to be made after the final determination of the Independent Accountants shall be payable by Seller to Company within ten (10) Business Days.

Seller shall have no liability for indemnification or reimbursement (x) under Section 10.2 not based upon any representation or warranty, (y) under Section 10.3, 10.4 or 10.5, or (z) with respect to any covenant or obligation to be performed and complied with after the Closing Date, unless notice is given to Seller in accordance with Section 10.10 or Section 10.11 prior to the expiration of the periods (“Notice Periods”) set forth below:

(A) For Section 10.3:

(I) With respect to any Known Environmental Liabilities, the Notice Period shall continue in perpetuity.

(II) With respect to any Environmental, Health and Safety Liabilities that are not Known Environmental Liabilities (the “Unknown Environmental Liabilities”), the Notice Period shall run from the Closing Date until the tenth (10^th) anniversary of the Closing Date. Seller shall be required to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Persons for any Unknown Environmental Liabilities according to the following schedule: For Unknown Environmental Liabilities notice of which is delivered to Seller prior to the eighth (8^th) anniversary of the Closing Date - 100%; for Unknown Environmental Liabilities notice of which is delivered to Seller after the eighth (8^th)

anniversary, and prior to the ninth (9^th) anniversary of the Closing Date - 67%; and for Unknown Environmental Liabilities notice of which is delivered to Seller after the ninth (9^th), and prior to the tenth (10^th) anniversary of the Closing Date - 33%. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (II): (x) if Seller proves that any Release, act, omission or violation of Environmental Law giving rise to any Unknown Environmental Liability first occurred after the Closing Date, Seller shall have no indemnity obligation under this Agreement with respect to such Unknown Environmental Liability, and (y) with respect to a Release, act, omission or violation of Environmental Law giving rise to an Unknown Environmental Liability that first occurs before the Closing Date, if Seller can prove that an Acquired Company’s acts or omissions after the Closing Date exacerbated the conditions giving rise to such Unknown Environmental Liability, the Seller’s indemnity obligation under Section 10.3 and as limited by this Section 10.7(a)(ii)(A)(II) will be reduced in equitable proportion to the respective contribution of Seller (or its Affiliates) and the Acquired Companies to the Unknown Environmental Liability.

(B) For Section 10.2 (i.e., indemnity claims not based on a breach of any representation or warranty), 10.4 or 10.5 or for indemnity claims with respect to any covenant to be performed and complied with after the Closing Date, the Notice Period shall commence on the Closing Date and continue until the longer of (y) the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date or (z) 60 days after the applicable statute of limitations.

(b) If the Closing occurs, Buyer will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to any representation or warranty, or covenant or obligation to be performed and complied with prior to the Closing Date, unless on or before fifth anniversary of the Closing Date Seller notifies Buyer of a claim specifying the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Seller.

(c) If the Closing does not occur, Buyer and Seller will have liability under Section 10.6 or 10.2 (as applicable) only if notice is given to the other party within one year after this Agreement has been terminated.

(d) The indemnifying party's obligations to indemnify for any matter notice of which is given within the applicable notice period will continue thereafter until satisfied.

10.8 LIMITATIONS ON AMOUNT--SELLER. Seller will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to the matters described in Sections 10.2(a) through 10.2(d), Section 10.2(f) and Section 10.3 until Buyer has suffered Damages in excess of a $500,000 aggregate Threshold (the “Threshold”) at which point Seller will be obligated to indemnify Buyer from and against such Damages relating back to the first dollar. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there is no threshold with respect to Seller’s indemnification obligations under Section 10.3 with respect to Known Environmental Liabilities (provided, however, that if the Base Business Plan includes any accrual for or otherwise includes expenses specifically identical as intended to cover the cost of remediating any Known Environmental Liability, Seller shall indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Persons only for the amount of costs incurred in connection with such remediation in any year that are in excess of the accrual or other amounts expressly identified for such expenses in the Base Business

Plan for that year or, for years after 2006, the amount accrued for 2006 in the Base Business Plan). For clarification purposes, there is also no Threshold with respect to Seller’s indemnification obligations under Section 10.2(e), Section 10.2(g), Section 10.4 or Section 10.5. This Section 10.8 does not apply to any Breach of any of Seller’s representations and warranties of which Seller had Knowledge at any time prior to the date on which such representation and warranty is made or any intentional Breach by Seller of any covenant or obligation, and Seller will be jointly and severally liable for all Damages with respect to such Breaches. The parties agree that the $500,000 aggregate Threshold can be satisfied by Damages that are indemnifiable under this Agreement or the European Share Purchase Agreement.

10.9 LIMITATIONS ON AMOUNT--BUYER. Buyer will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to the matters described in clause (a) or (b) of Section 10.6 until Seller shall has suffered Damages in excess of a $500,000 threshold (at which point Buyer will be obligated to indemnify Seller from and against such Damages relating back to the first dollar). However, this Section 10.9 will not apply to any Breach of any of Buyer’s representations and warranties of which Buyer had Knowledge at any time prior to the date on which such representation and warranty is made or any intentional Breach by Buyer of any covenant or obligation, and Buyer will be liable for all Damages with respect to such Breaches.

10.10 PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION--THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.

(a) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under Section 10.2, 10.4, or (to the extent provided in Section 10.3) Section 10.3.3 of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding against it, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim is to be made against an Indemnifying Party under such Section, give notice to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of such claim, but the failure to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced by the Indemnifying Party’s failure to give such notice.

(b) If any Proceeding referred to in Section 10.9(a) is brought against an Indemnified Party and it gives notice to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of such Proceeding, the Indemnifying Party will, unless the claim involves Taxes, be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the Indemnifying Party is also a party to such Proceeding and the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate, or (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Party of its financial capacity to defend such Proceeding and provide indemnification with respect to such Proceeding), to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the Indemnifying Party will not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Party under this Section 10 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, (A) it will be conclusively established for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made

in that Proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification; (B) no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s consent unless (Y) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Legal Requirements or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnified Party, and (Z) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party; and (C) the Indemnified Party will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any Proceeding and the Indemnifying Party does not, within ten Business Days after the Indemnified Party’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the Indemnifying Party will be bound by any determination made in such Proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnified Party.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but the Indemnifying Party will not be bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

A claim for indemnification under Sections 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and/or 10.6 (as applicable) for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such claim to the extent their known by such party.

In addition, Seller will provide to any underwriter relating to financial information pertaining to any period prior to the Closing Date as required by Legal Requirements or applicable regulations or guidance of the accounting profession.

11.7 WAIVER. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other party, (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given, and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

11.8 ENTIRE AGREEMENT AND MODIFICATION. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements between the parties with respect to its subject matter (including without limitation the Memorandum of Agreement between Outokumpu Oyj and Seller dated on or about April 9, 2002) and constitutes (along with the Schedules and documents referred to in this Agreement) a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter.

11.9 ASSIGNMENTS, SUCCESSORS AND NO THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS. Neither party may assign any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior consent of the other parties, except that Buyer or Seller may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to any Subsidiary of Buyer or Seller.
