Date") that it takes exception to any one or more of the disclosures contained
in the Disclosure Schedule, the Disclosure Schedule will be deemed to be

paragraph in Section 5 of this Agreement, even if such paragraph does not
reference the Disclosure Schedule, without being in breach of this Agreement.
The disclosure of information in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed

business or operations of the Company or its

Subsidiaries. The Disclosure Schedule is qualified in its entirety by reference

Subsidiary expects any taxing authority to assess any additional Taxes
for any period for which Tax Returns have been filed. There is no

or (B) as to which any of the Sellers has Knowledge based upon personal
contact with any agent of such authority. Section 5.11 of the

Subsidiaries) under Treas. Reg. Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar
provision of state, local, or foreign law), as a transferee or
successor, by contract, or otherwise.

5.11.6. The unpaid Taxes of Climax and its Subsidiaries (A)

Climax and its Subsidiaries and shall cause Deloitte & Touche, LLP ("Team's

Balance Sheet in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. The June
30, 1998 Audited Balance Sheet shall be prepared and audited using the
accounting policies and procedures customarily followed by Climax and its
Subsidiaries, so long as such policies and procedures are in accordance with

have no right to indemnification under Section 9 of this Agreement for a breach
of the representation in Section 5.7 above concerning the Most Recent Balance
Sheet, with respect to any item that results in an adjustment to the Purchase
Price pursuant to this Section 7.7, to the extent of such adjustment.

7.7.2 Within 30 days after receipt of the June 30, 1998
Audited Balance Sheet, either Seller shall inform Team in writing that either
the June 30, 1998 Audited Balance Sheet is acceptable or object to the June 30,
1998 Audited Balance Sheet in writing setting forth a specific description the
Seller's objections (it being agreed that the failure of a Seller to deliver
such written notice to Team within such 30-day period shall be deemed acceptance
by such Seller). If a Seller objects as provided above and if Team does not
agree with the Seller's objections, if any (it being agreed that the failure of
Team to deliver written notice to the objecting Seller of Team's disagreement
with the objecting Seller's objections within 15 days of Team's receipt of the
objecting Seller's objections shall be deemed acceptance by Team), or such
objections are not resolved on a mutually agreeable basis within 15 days after
Team's receipt of the objecting Seller's objections, any such disagreement shall
be promptly submitted to arbitration in accordance with Section 11.15 of this
Agreement; provided, however, that the neutral arbitrator shall be an
independent accounting firm agreed upon by Team's Auditor on behalf of Team and
by Climax's Auditor on behalf of the objecting Seller(s) or, if they cannot
agree on a single neutral arbitrator, a panel of three neutral arbitrators
consisting of one neutral arbitrator selected by Team's Auditor and a second
neutral arbitrator selected by Climax's Auditor, and a third neutral arbitrator
selected by the first two neutral arbitrators in accordance with Section
11.15.4. A neutral arbitrator agreed upon or selected by Team's Auditor or by
Climax's Auditor shall be a member in good standing of the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants SEC Practice Division. The arbitrators'
determination shall be limited to whether the June 30, 1998 Audited Balance
Sheet was prepared by Climax and audited by the Team Auditor in accordance with
instructions set forth in this Section 7.7. Team shall bear one-half of the
fees, costs and expenses arising under and relating to such arbitration and each
objecting Seller shall bear a proportion of the other one-half of such fees,
costs and expenses determined by dividing the objecting Seller's number of
Climax Shares by the total number of Climax Shares of all objecting Sellers.
Team and each objecting Seller shall bear the fees, costs and expenses of his,
her or its own accountants and representatives.

Upon resolution of any and all disputes concerning the June 30, 1998 Audited
Balance Sheet, the determination of the June 30, 1998 Audited Balance Sheet
shall be deemed to be final.

7.7.3 In the event that the Shareholders' Equity, as
reflected by the June 30, 1998 Audited Balance Sheet of Climax and its
Subsidiaries, is less ("Net Worth Deficit") than the Shareholders' Equity as
reflected by the Most Recent Balance Sheet (as adjusted in the manner set forth
on Exhibit G), the Purchase Price for the Climax Shares, as provided in Section
2.2 of this Agreement and as reflected by Exhibit A, shall be retroactively
reduced by the amount of such Net Worth Deficit, and the amount of such Net
Worth Deficit shall be recovered by Team out of the Escrowed Property in
accordance with each Escrow Agreement. In the event that the Shareholders'
Equity, as reflected by the June 30, 1998 Audited Balance Sheet of Climax and
its Subsidiaries, is more ("Net Worth Surplus") than the Shareholders' Equity as
reflected on the Most Recent Balance Sheet (as adjusted in the manner set forth
on Exhibit G), the Purchase Price for the Climax Shares, as provided in Section
2.2 of this Agreement and as reflected by Exhibit A, shall be retroactively
increased by the amount of the Net Worth Surplus, and within one business day,
Team shall pay to the Sellers the amount of such difference in Cash by wire
transfer of immediately available funds. The Net Worth Deficit shall be borne by
each Seller in the ratio that the number of Climax Shares held by such Seller
bears to all of the Climax Shares purchased hereunder by Team. Each Seller shall
receive that portion of the Net Worth Surplus in accordance with the ratio of
the number of Climax Shares held by such Seller bears to all of the Climax
Shares purchased hereunder by Team. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein contained, the calculation of a Net Worth Deficit or Net Worth Surplus
shall (i) add back losses at Alsana to the extent such losses are attributable
to any inventory adjustments and goodwill write-off (other than normal
amortizations) at Alsana; (ii) add back any other losses at Alsana up to an
amount equal to $85,000; and (iii) recognize the effect of any losses not
attributable to the sources described in (i) at Alsana in excess of the amount
described in (ii) only for the purpose of offsetting the effect of gains shown
on the income statement related to the consolidated June 30, 1998 Audited
Balance Sheet from the operations of Climax, Climax Leasing, Inc., Climax
International II, Inc., and Climax Rental Venture LLC (i.e., excluding all
operations of Alsana) and not recognize such losses to the extent they
contribute to a Net Worth Deficit after such gains are entirely offset. All
adjustments contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence shall be made net
of their tax effect.

than $3,000 and (ii) until the aggregate of all such claims against the
Benhams for Adverse Consequences in excess of $3,000 exceeds $100,000,
and then only for the amount by which such Adverse Consequences
resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or
caused by the breach of any representation or warranty of the Sellers
contained in Section 5 of this Agreement relating to Alsana exceeds
$100,000.

9.2.3. Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.2.1 or Section
9.2.2 above to the contrary, and subject to the other terms and
conditions of this Section 9, each Seller will be responsible to
indemnify Team for the entirety of any Adverse Consequences Team may
suffer as a result of any breach of his, her or its covenant in Section
2 above and his, her or its representations and warranties in Section
3.1 above concerning the transaction. Each Seller will be responsible
to indemnify Team for any Adverse Consequences Team may suffer as a
result of the breach by such Seller of any other covenant or
representation and warranty contained in Section 5 of this Agreement in
the ratio that the number of Climax Shares held by such Seller bears to
all of the Climax Shares purchased hereunder by Team.

9.3. Indemnification Provisions for Benefit of the Sellers. In the
event Team breaches (or in the event any third party alleges in writing facts
that, if true, would mean Team has breached) any of its representations,
warranties, and covenants contained herein, then Team agrees to indemnify each
of the Sellers from and against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences the
Seller may suffer through and after the date of the claim for indemnification
resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the
breach (or the alleged breach).

9.4. Matters Involving Third Parties. If any third party shall
notify any Party (the "Indemnified Party") with respect to any matter (a "Third
Party Claim") which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against any
other Party (the "Indemnifying Party") under this Section 9, then the
Indemnified Party shall promptly notify each Indemnifying Party thereof in
writing; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party
in notifying any Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from
any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying
Party thereby is prejudiced.

9.5. Defense of Third Party Claims. Any Indemnifying Party will have
the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with
counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long
as (A) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within
10 days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim
that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and
against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may
suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused
by the Third Party Claim, (B) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified
Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the
Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third
Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (C) the Third
Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other
equitable relief, (D) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the
Third Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party,
likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing
business interests of the Indemnified Party, and (E) the Indemnifying Party
conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently. So long
as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim in
accordance with the foregoing, (A) the Indemnified Party may retain separate
co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the
Third Party Claim, (B) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of
any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim
without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be withheld
unreasonably), and (C) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of
any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be withheld
unreasonably). In the event any of the aforesaid conditions in this Section 9.5
fail and/or cease to be satisfied, (A) the Indemnified Party may defend against,
and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with
respect to, the Third Party Claim in any manner it reasonably may deem
appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any
consent from, any Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), (B) the
Indemnifying Parties will reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and
periodically for the costs of defending against the Third Party Claim (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses), and (C) the Indemnifying Parties will
remain responsible for any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer
resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the
Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Section 9.

9.6. Indemnification Payments Deemed to be Adjustments to Purchase
Price. All indemnification payments under this Section 9 shall be deemed
adjustments to the Purchase Price.

9.7. Indemnification for Certain Alsana Litigation. A Subsidiary of
Climax, Alsana, is currently the subject of that certain complaint for
infringement of patent, Case No. CIV S-98-0911 FCD PAN, under the style Tri Tool
Inc. v. Climax Portable Machine Tools, Inc., et al., in

the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California (the
"Alsana Litigation"). Climax recently acquired its equity ownership of Alsana
under the terms and conditions of the Alsana Documents. Each Seller agrees to
indemnify Team from and against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences Team
may suffer from and after the Closing Date resulting from, arising out of,
relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Alsana Litigation. A condition
precedent to Team's exercise of its right to seek indemnity from the Sellers for
the Alsana Litigation shall be Team's causing Climax to exercise its rights to
set-off and seek indemnity from Xxxx X. Xxxx, Xx. under the Alsana Documents.
Team shall not seek indemnity from the Sellers for the Alsana Litigation,
including for the costs and expenses incurred pursuing the rights and remedies
contemplated by the preceding sentence, until Team has used all reasonable
efforts to pursue such rights and remedies contemplated by the preceding
sentence. Team shall not, and shall cause Climax and Alsana not to, pay any
amount or amounts in settlement of or in connection with the Alsana Litigation
unless Team has a reasonable basis for concluding that all such amount or
amounts paid shall not exceed the Adverse Consequences that could result from
the Alsana Litigation. Each Seller will be responsible to Team for the indemnity
contained in this Section 9.7 in the ratio that the number of Climax Shares held
by such Seller bears to all of the Climax Shares purchased hereunder by Team.

9.8. Limit on Liability. Notwithstanding any provision contained
herein to the contrary, (i) the limit of the aggregate liability of the ESOP
under this Section 9 shall be the Purchase Price (as adjusted under Section 7.7)
for the ESOP's Climax Shares less $1,109,966; (ii) the limit of the aggregate
liability of the Edin Trust under this Section 9 shall be the Purchase Price (as
adjusted under Section 7.7) for the Edin Trust's Climax Shares less $48,620;
(iii) the limit of the aggregate liability of Xxxxxx under this Section 9 shall
be the Purchase Price (as adjusted under Section 7.7) for Weigel's Climax Shares
less $25,740; and, (iv) the limit of the aggregate liability of the Benhams
under this Section 9 shall be the Purchase Price (as adjusted under Section 7.7)
for the Benhams' Climax Shares. A Seller shall not have any obligation to
indemnify Team from and against any Adverse Consequences resulting from, arising
out of, or relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the breach of a covenant
contained in this Agreement if such Seller is not the breaching Seller.

9.9. Other Indemnification Provisions. Team agrees that the
foregoing indemnification provisions in this Section 9 shall be the exclusive
remedy of Team for any breach of the representations, warranties, or the
covenants of any of the Sellers in this Agreement. Each of the Sellers hereby
agrees that he or it will not make any claim for indemnification against any of
Climax and its Subsidiaries by reason of the fact that he or it was a director,
officer, employee, or agent of any such entity or was serving at the request of
any such entity as a partner, trustee, director, officer, employee, or agent of
another entity (whether such claim is for judgments, damages, penalties, fines,
costs, amounts paid in settlement, losses, expenses, or otherwise and

whether such claim is pursuant to any statute, charter document, bylaw,
agreement, or otherwise) with respect to any action, suit, proceeding,
complaint, claim, or demand brought by Team against such Seller (whether such
action, suit, proceeding, complaint, claim, or demand is pursuant to this
Agreement, applicable law, or otherwise).

9.10. Assignment of Rights Under Alsana Documents. To the extent that
Team seeks and receives indemnity from the Sellers relating to Adverse
Consequences under Section 9.2.2 above without having first exercised and
received the benefit of Climax' and Alsana's rights of set-off and to seek
indemnity from Xxxx X. Xxxx, Xx. under the Alsana Documents, then, upon the
written request of either Seller, Team shall cause Climax and Alsana to assign
to such Seller their respective rights to set-off and to seek indemnity from
Xxxx X. Xxxx, Xx. under the Alsana Documents.

10. Termination.

without cure for a period of five days after the notice of breach or
(B) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before August 31,

written notice to Team at any time prior to the Closing (A) in the

continued without cure for a period of five days after the notice of
breach or (B) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before

covenant contained in this Agreement).

10.2. Effect of Termination. If any Party terminates this Agreement
pursuant to Section 10.1 above, all rights and obligations of the Parties

release and make such public disclosure with respect to the Agreement as it

assign any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to a wholly-owned
subsidiary and (ii) designate a wholly-owned subsidiary to perform its
obligations hereunder (in any or all of which cases under Section 11.4(i) or

Any Party may send any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication
hereunder to the intended recipient at the address set forth above using any
other means (including personal delivery, expedited courier, messenger service,
telecopy, telex, or ordinary mail), but no such notice, request, demand, claim,

address to which notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications
hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other Parties notice in the manner

11.8. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Oregon without
giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the
State of Oregon or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of
the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Oregon.

11.9. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this
Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Team
and the Sellers. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or
breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be
deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or
breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising
by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

11.10. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is
invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect
the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or
the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other
situation or in any other jurisdiction.

11.11. Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each
of the Parties, Climax and the Subsidiaries will bear his, her or its own costs
and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated

hereby. The Sellers agree that none of Climax and its Subsidiaries has borne or
will bear any of the Sellers' costs and expenses (including any of their legal
fees and expenses) in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby; provided, however, to the extent that Climax or any of its
Subsidiaries has borne such costs and expenses, the Sellers agree (i) to cause
such costs and expenses to be paid to Climax or such Subsidiary out of the
Purchase Price in Cash at the Closing, or (ii) to reimburse Climax or such
Subsidiary for such costs and expenses by Cash payment at the Closing.

11.12. Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the
negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or
question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed
as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall
arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of
the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or
foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The
word "including" shall mean including without limitation. The Parties intend
that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have
independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation,
warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there
exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same
subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the
Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the
Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

11.13. Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and
Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and
made a part hereof.

11.14. Specific Performance. Each of the Parties acknowledges and
agrees that the other Parties would be damaged irreparably in the event any of
the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their
specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of the Parties
agrees that the other Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions
to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce
specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action
instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having
jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter (subject to the provisions set
forth in Section 11.15 below), in addition to any other remedy to which they may
be entitled, at law or in equity.

11.15. Arbitration. All disputes, controversies or claims arising out
of the transaction evidenced by this Agreement, or between or among the Parties
hereto, including but not limited to those arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or any related instruments, agreements, or documents, including any
claim from an alleged tort, shall be determined by binding arbitration in

accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (or if not applicable, the
applicable state law), the Rules of Practice and Procedure for the Arbitration
of Commercial Disputes of the American Arbitration Association or any successor
thereof ("AAA"), and the "Special Rules" set forth below. In the event of any
inconsistency, the Special Rules shall control. Judgment upon any arbitration
award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any Party to this
agreement or any related instruments, agreements, or documents may bring an
action, including a summary or expedited proceeding, to compel arbitration of
any controversy or claim to which this agreement applies in any court having
jurisdiction over such action.

11.15.1. Special Rules. The following "Special Rules" shall
apply to all arbitrations hereunder:

11.15.2. Commencement. All arbitration hearings will be
commenced within 90 days of the demand for arbitration; further, the arbitrator
shall only, upon a showing of cause, be permitted to extend the commencement of
such hearing for up to an additional 60 days.

11.15.3. Three Arbitrators. The arbitration shall be
conducted before a tribunal composed of three neutral arbitrators each of whom
shall sign an oath agreeing to be bound by the code of ethics for arbitrators in
commercial disputes promulgated by the AAA for neutral arbitrators. Each Party
shall appoint an arbitrator, obtain its appointee's acceptance of such
appointment, and deliver written notification of such appointment and acceptance
to the other Party within 30 days after delivery of the notice of arbitration.

11.15.4. Appointment of Chairman. The two Party-appointed
arbitrators shall jointly appoint the third arbitrator from the AAA "blue
ribbon" panel for commercial disputes. If the appointment of the third
arbitrator is not effected within 30 days, then, upon the joint request of the
Parties or the request of either of them, the appointing authority shall appoint
the third arbitrator, obtain acceptance of such appointment and acceptance. The
third arbitrator shall serve as the chairman of the tribunal.

11.15.5. Qualifications of Chairman. The chairman shall be a
lawyer admitted to the bar of the State of Oregon who shall have practiced for
at least 12 years, shall speak, read and write the English language fluently,
shall have expertise in commercial litigation, and be either a former judicial
officer or an active partner in a law firm of no less than 50 lawyers.

11.15.6. Unavailability of Blue Ribbon Panelists. If for any
reason members of the blue ribbon panel are not available to serve as
arbitrators or as chairman, then other commercial arbitrators of the AAA may
serve, provided that preference shall be given to former judicial officers or
active partners or shareholders in a law firm of no less than 50 lawyers with
expertise in commercial litigation.

11.15.7. Impartiality. It is the intent of the Parties to
avoid the appearance of impropriety due to bias or partiality on the part of any
arbitrator. Prior to his or her formal appointment, each arbitrator shall
disclose to the Parties and to the other members of the tribunal, any financial,
fiduciary, kinship or other relationship between that arbitrator and any Party
or its counsel, or between that arbitrator and any individual or entity with any
financial, fiduciary, kinship or other relationship with any Party. For the
purpose of this Agreement, "appearance of impropriety" shall be defined as such
relationship or behavior as would cause a reasonable person to believe that bias
or partiality on the part of the arbitrator may exist in favor of any Party.

11.15.8. Written Opinion. Any award or portion thereof,
whether preliminary or final, shall be in a written opinion containing findings
of fact and conclusions of law signed by each arbitrator. The arbitrator
dissenting from an award or portion thereof shall issue a dissent from the award
or portion thereof in writing, stating the reasons for his dissent.

11.15.9. Framing of Issues. The notice of arbitration shall
contain a statement of any dispute in sufficient detail to apprise the other
party of (i) the nature and scope of each dispute, (ii) the initiating party's
position and (iii) the relief sought. Each other party shall, within 45 days
after receipt of the notice, or within such other period of time as the parties
may agree, deliver its answer to the initiating party, which shall contain its
statement of the dispute, its positions and any counterclaims and the relief
that it seeks. The initiating party shall then have 45 days, or such other
period of time as the parties may agree, to deliver its reply to any
counterclaim raised in the answer. No amendments to the notice, answer or reply
shall be permitted without the consent of the other parties or of the
arbitrators.

11.15.10. Discovery. The Parties agree that discovery shall
be handled expeditiously. The Parties shall be entitled to a reasonable number
of depositions, the final number which may be decided by the arbitrators if the
Parties cannot agree. Interrogatories and requests for production may be used by
the Parties under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. All disputes regarding
discovery shall be promptly resolved by the arbitrators.

11.15.11. Locale. The locale for the arbitration shall be in
Portland, Oregon unless otherwise agreed by the Parties.

11.15.12. Reservation of Rights. Nothing in this arbitration
provision shall be deemed to limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable
statutes of limitation or repose and any waivers contained in this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have executed this Agreement on
the date first above written.
