The Company’s unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 26, 2009 and December 31, 2008, results of operations for the quarter ended and year to date period ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008, and cash flows for the year to date periods ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008.

5.	Discontinued Operations

On December 31, 2007, the Company completed the divestiture of the TB Wood’s adjustable speed drives business (the “Electronics Division”) to Vacon PLC (“Vacon”) for $29.0 million.

In connection with the sale of the Electronics Division, the Company entered into a transition services agreement. Pursuant to the transition services agreement, the Company provided services such as sales support, warehousing, accounting and IT services to Vacon. The Company recorded the income received as an offset to the related expense of providing the service. During the quarter and year to date periods ended September 27, 2008, the Company recorded a reduction of $0.1 million and $0.3 million against cost of sales, respectively, and $0.2 million and $0.9 million as an offset to selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively. No transition services have been provided in 2009. The Company leases building space to Vacon. The Company recorded $0.1 million and $0.5 million of lease income in other income in the condensed consolidated statement of income during the quarter and year to date periods ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008.

Loss from discontinued operations in the year to date period ended September 27, 2008 was comprised of a working capital adjustment, net of taxes.

6.	Inventories

Inventories located at certain subsidiaries acquired in connection with the TB Wood’s acquisition are stated at the lower of cost or market, principally using the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method. The remaining subsidiaries are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Market is defined as net realizable value. Inventories at September 26, 2009 and December 31, 2008 consisted of the following:


	September 26,		December 31,
	2009		2008

Raw materials		28,946	$	31,925
Work in process		14,891		21,310
Finished goods		28,418		45,175

Inventories	$	72,255	$	98,410

Approximately 13% of total inventories at September 26, 2009 were valued using the LIFO method. The Company recorded a $0.1 million adjustment and $1.2 million adjustment as a component of cost of sales to value the inventory on a LIFO basis for the year to date periods ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008, respectively. For the quarter ended September 27, 2008, the Company recorded a $0.4 million adjustment as a component of cost of sales to value the inventory on a LIFO basis.

If the LIFO inventory was accounted for using the FIFO method, the inventory balance at September 26, 2009 would be $1.5 million higher.


7.	Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Changes to goodwill from December 31, 2008 through September 26, 2009 were as follows:


Balance December 31, 2008		77,497
Impact of changes in foreign currency		1,458

Balance September 26, 2009	$	78,955

Other intangible assets as of September 26, 2009 and December 31, 2008 consisted of the following:

Total intangible assets	$	98,760	$	22,313	$	97,515		$	18,176

The Company recorded $1.4 million of amortization expense in the quarters ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008, and $4.1 million and $4.3 million for the year to date periods ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008, respectively.

Amounts in thousands, unless otherwise noted — (Continued)

The estimated amortization expense for intangible assets is approximately $1.4 million for the remainder of 2009 and $5.5 million in each of the next four years and then $21.8 million thereafter.


8.	Assets Held for Sale

During the fourth quarter of 2007, management entered into a plan to exit its building located in Stratford, Canada. The operations of the facility, which was acquired as part of the TB Wood’s acquisition, were integrated into certain of the Company’s other existing facilities in 2008.

In the second quarter of 2009, due to real estate market conditions in Stratford, Canada, the Company reevaluated the classification of this building as an asset held for sale and reclassified the building, with a net book value of $1.2 million, to held and used. As a result of the change in classification, the Company recorded a catch-up depreciation adjustment of $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2009.

As of December 31, 2008, management planned to exit two buildings, one in Scotland, Pennsylvania and one in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The two buildings were previously the operating facilities for the Electronics Division which was divested on December 31, 2007. The Company leases the space to Vacon.

In the first quarter of 2009, due to real estate market conditions in Scotland, Pennsylvania and Chattanooga, Tennessee, the Company reevaluated the classification of these buildings as assets held for sale and reclassified the buildings, with a net book value of $3.5 million, to held and used. As a result of the change in classification, the Company recorded a catch-up depreciation adjustment of $0.2 million in the first quarter ended September 26, 2009.


9.	Income Taxes

The estimated effective income tax rates recorded for the quarters ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008 were based upon management’s best estimate of the effective tax rate for the entire year. During the third quarter of 2009, the Company negotiated an agreement with a foreign taxing authority. The agreement allows the Company to fully deduct certain interest charges that had previously been classified as non-deductible in 2009. The benefit from this deduction resulted in the Company recording a benefit for income taxes in the year and quarter to date period ended September 26, 2009.

The Company and its subsidiaries file consolidated and separate income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction as well as in various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities in all these jurisdictions. With the exception of certain foreign jurisdictions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations for the tax years prior to 2005. Additionally, the Company has indemnification agreements with the sellers of the Colfax, Kilian and Hay Hall entities, which provide for reimbursement to the Company for payments made in satisfaction of tax liabilities relating to pre-acquisition periods.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense in the condensed consolidated statements of income. At December 31, 2008 and September 26, 2009, the Company had $2.7 million and $3.4 million of accrued interest and penalties, respectively. The Company accrued $0.4 million of interest and no penalties during the year to date period ended September 26, 2009.


10.	Pension and Other Employee Benefits

Defined Benefit (Pension) and Post-retirement Benefit Plans

The Company sponsors various defined benefit (pension) and post-retirement (medical, dental and life insurance coverage) plans for certain, primarily unionized, active employees. In March 2009, the Company reached a new collective bargaining agreement with the union at its Erie, Pennsylvania facility. One of the provisions of the new agreement eliminates benefits that employees were entitled to receive through the applicable other post employment benefit plan (“OPEB”). OPEB benefits will no longer be available to retired

Amounts in thousands, unless otherwise noted — (Continued)

or active employees. This resulted in an OPEB settlement gain of $1.5 million in the year to date period ended September 26, 2009. In addition, no additional years of credited service will be accrued on the defined benefit pension plan effective February 28, 2009. There was no curtailment gain or loss as a result of the change in the pension plan, the plan had no unrecognized prior service cost and there was no change in the projected benefit obligation.

The following table represents the components of the net periodic benefit cost associated with the respective plans for the quarters and year to date periods ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008:

Senior Revolving Credit Agreement

The Company maintains a $30 million revolving borrowings facility with a commercial bank (the “Senior Revolving Credit Agreement”) through its wholly owned subsidiary Altra Industrial. The Senior Revolving Credit Agreement is subject to certain limitations resulting from the requirement of Altra Industrial to maintain certain levels of collateralized assets, as defined in the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement. Altra Industrial may use up to $10.0 million of its availability under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement for standby letters of credit issued on its behalf, the issuance of which will reduce the amount of borrowings that would otherwise be available to Altra Industrial. Altra Industrial may re-borrow any amounts paid to reduce the amount of outstanding borrowings; however, all borrowings under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement must be repaid in full as of November 30, 2010.

Substantially all of Altra Industrial’s assets have been pledged as collateral against outstanding borrowings under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement. The Senior Revolving Credit Agreement requires Altra Industrial to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.20 for all four quarter periods when availability under the line falls below $12.5 million. Altra Industrial’s availability under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement has not dropped below $12.5 million during 2009. The Revolving Credit imposes customary affirmative covenants and restrictions on Altra Industrial.

There were no borrowings under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement at September 26, 2009 or December 31, 2008. However, the lender had issued $3.2 million and $7.6 million of outstanding letters of credit as of September 26, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement.

The interest rate on any outstanding borrowings on the line of credit are the lender’s prime rate plus 25 basis points or LIBOR plus 175 basis points. The rate on all outstanding letters of credit are 1.5% and .25% on any unused availability under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement.

TB Wood’s Revolving Credit Agreement

As of September 26, 2009 and December 31, 2008, there were $6.1 million and $6.0 million of outstanding letters of credit under the TB Wood’s Credit Agreement, respectively. All borrowing under the TB Wood’s Revolving Credit Agreement are due on November 30, 2010. The interest rate on any outstanding

borrowings on the line of credit are the lender’s Prime Rate plus 25 basis points or LIBOR plus 175 basis points.

Overdraft Agreements

Certain foreign subsidiaries maintain overdraft agreements with financial institutions. There were no borrowings as of September 26, 2009 or December 31, 2008 under any of the overdraft agreements.

9% Senior Secured Notes

Altra Industrial issued 9% Senior Secured Notes (the “Senior Secured Notes”), with a face value of $270.0 million. Interest on the Senior Secured Notes is payable semi-annually, in arrears, on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The Senior Secured Notes mature on December 1, 2011 unless previously redeemed by Altra Industrial.

The Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed by Altra Industrial’s U.S. domestic subsidiaries and are secured by a second priority lien, subject to first priority liens securing the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement, on substantially all of Altra Industrial’s assets. The Senior Secured Notes contain many terms, covenants and conditions, which impose substantial limitations on Altra Industrial.

During the second quarter of 2009, Altra Industrial retired $8.3 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes at a redemption price of between 94.75% and 97.125% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In connection with the redemption, Altra Industrial recorded a gain on the extinguishment of debt of $0.4 million, which is recorded as a reduction in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of income. In addition, Altra Industrial wrote-off $0.1 million of deferred financing costs and original issue discount/premium which is included in interest expense.

During the third quarter of 2009, Altra Industrial retired $14.0 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes at a redemption price of between 100.5% and 101.6% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In connection with the redemption, Altra Industrial recorded a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $0.2 million, which is recorded as interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of income. In addition, Altra Industrial wrote-off $0.2 million of deferred financing costs and original issue discount/premium included in interest expense.

11.25% Senior Notes

Altra Industrial issued 11.25% Senior Notes (“Senior Notes”), with a face value of £33 million. Interest on the Senior Notes was payable semi-annually, in arrears, on August 15 and February 15 of each year, at an annual rate of 11.25%.

During the second quarter of 2009, Altra Industrial retired the remaining principal balance of the Senior Notes of £3.3 million or $5.0 million of principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In connection with the redemption, Altra Industrial incurred $0.2 million of pre-payment premium and wrote-off the entire remaining balance of $0.1 million of deferred financing fees, which is recorded as interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of income (loss).

Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds

In connection with the acquisition of TB Wood’s, the Company assumed the obligation to make payments due under certain Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds outstanding as of the acquisition date. TB Wood’s had assumed obligations with respect to approximately $3.0 million and $2.3 million through the issuance of Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds under the authority of the industrial development corporations of the

City of San Marcos, Texas and City of the Chattanooga, Tennessee, respectively. These bonds bear variable interest rates (less than 1% interest on September 26, 2009), and mature in April 2024 and April 2022, respectively. The bonds were issued to finance production facilities for TB Wood’s manufacturing operations in San Marcos and Chattanooga, and are secured by letters of credit issued under the terms of the TB Wood’s Credit Agreement.

As of December 31, 2008, the Company planned to sell the building in Chattanooga, Tennessee. According to the terms of the indenture and lease, before the Company can acquire the building, free of all encumbrances, the outstanding debt under the Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds must be paid in full. As a result, the debt was classified as a current liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008.

In the first quarter of 2009, due to real estate market conditions in Chattanooga, the Company reevaluated the classification of this building as an asset held for sale and reclassified this building to held and used. As a result of the change in classification, the Company reclassified $2.3 million of debt associated with the Chattanooga property to long-term debt on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Mortgage

In June 2006, the Company entered into a mortgage on its building in Heidelberg, Germany with a local bank. In the third quarter of 2009, the Company re-financed the mortgage. The Company borrowed an additional €1.0 million. The new mortgage has an interest rate of 3.5% and is payable in monthly installments over three years. As of September 26, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the mortgage had a remaining principal balance outstanding of €2.2 million, or $3.3 million, and €1.6 million, or $2.3 million, respectively.

Capital Leases

The Company leases certain equipment under capital lease arrangements, whose obligations are included in both short-term and long-term debt.


12.	Stockholders’ Equity

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s Board of Directors established the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) that provides for various forms of stock based compensation to independent directors, officers and senior-level employees of the Company. The restricted shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Plan generally vest ratably over a period of 3.5 to 5 years, provided that the vesting of the restricted shares may accelerate upon the occurrence of certain liquidity events, if approved by the Board of Directors in connection with the transactions. Shares granted to non-management members of the Board of Directors generally vest immediately.

The Plan permits the Company to grant restricted stock to key employees and other persons who make significant contributions to the success of the Company. The restrictions and vesting schedule for restricted stock granted under the Plan are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Compensation expense recorded during the quarters ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008 was $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Compensation expense for the year to date periods ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008 was $2.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Stock based compensation is recorded as an adjustment to selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of income. Stock based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

The following table sets forth the activity of the Company’s unvested restricted stock grants in the year to date period ended September 26, 2009:


				Weighted-Average
				Grant Date Fair

Shares for which restrictions lapsed		(440,558	)	$	5.35

Restricted shares unvested September 26, 2009		628,448		$	6.26

Total remaining unrecognized compensation cost was approximately $3.0 million as of September 26, 2009, which will be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of three years. The fair market value of the shares in which the restrictions have lapsed during the year to date period ended September 26, 2009 was $3.9 million. Restricted shares granted are valued based on the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant.


13.	Concentrations of Credit, Segment Data and Workforce

Financial instruments, which are potentially subject to counter party performance and concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of trade accounts receivable. The Company manages these risks by conducting credit evaluations of customers prior to delivery or commencement of services. When the Company enters into a sales contract, collateral is normally not required from the customer. Payments are typically due within thirty days of billing. An allowance for potential credit losses is maintained, and losses have historically been within management’s expectations. No customer represented greater than 10% of total sales for the quarters ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008.

The Company is also subject to counter party performance risk of loss in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments, such as cash and investments. Cash and investments are held by international or well established financial institutions.

The Company has five operating segments that are regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker. Each of these operating segments represents a unit that produces mechanical power transmission products. The Company aggregates all of the operating segments into one reportable segment. The five operating segments have similar long-term average gross profit margins. All of our products are sold by one global sales force and we have one global marketing function. Strategic markets and industries are determined for the entire company and then targeted by the brands. All of our operating segments have common manufacturing and production processes. Each segment includes a machine shop which uses similar equipment and manufacturing techniques. Each of our segments uses common raw materials, such as aluminum, steel and copper. The materials are purchased and procurement contracts are negotiated by one global purchasing function.

We serve the general industrial market by selling to original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”) and distributors. Our OEM and distributor customers serve the general industrial market. Resource allocation decisions such as capital expenditure requirements and headcount requirements are made at a consolidated level and allocated to the individual operating segments.

Discrete financial information is not available by product line at the level necessary for management to assess performance or make resource allocation decisions.

14.	Commitments and Contingencies

General Litigation

The Company is involved in various pending legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of business. None of these legal proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of the Company. With respect to these proceedings, management believes that the Company will prevail, has adequate insurance coverage or has established appropriate reserves to cover potential liabilities. Any costs that management estimates may be paid related to these proceedings or claims are accrued when the liability is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. There can be no assurance, however, as to the ultimate outcome of any of these matters, and if all or substantially all of these legal proceedings were to be determined adversely to the Company, there could be a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of the Company. As of September 26, 2009 and December 31, 2008, there were no such claims for which management believed a loss was probable. As a result, no amounts were accrued in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for losses related to such claims at those dates.

The Company is indemnified under the terms of certain acquisition agreements for certain pre-existing matters up to agreed upon limits.


15.	Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Transition Expenses

During 2007, the Company adopted two restructuring programs. The first was intended to improve operational efficiency by reducing headcount, consolidating operating facilities and relocating manufacturing to lower cost areas (the “Altra Plan”). The second was related to the acquisition of TB Wood’s and was intended to reduce duplicate staffing and consolidate facilities (the “TB Wood’s Plan”). The TB Wood’s Plan was initially formulated at the time of the TB Wood’s acquisition and therefore the associated accrual was recorded as part of purchase accounting.

The Company has not incurred any additional expenses related to either the Altra Plan or the TB Wood’s Plan in 2009. The Company’s restructuring expense, by major component for the year to date period ended September 27, 2008 were as follows:

In March 2009, the Company adopted a new restructuring plan (“2009 Altra Plan”) to improve the utilization of the manufacturing infrastructure and to realign the business with the current economic conditions. The 2009 Altra Plan is intended to improve operational efficiency by reducing headcount and consolidating facilities. The Company’s total restructuring expense for the quarter ended September 26, 2009 was $1.0 million.

On April 7, 2009, the Company announced that it would be closing its facility in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan and relocating the manufacturing to certain of the Company’s other facilities. In connection with this decision, the Company completed an impairment analysis. The facility which had a carrying value of $1.4 million was written down to the fair value of $0.7 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $0.7 million. The Company estimated the fair value using observable inputs (level 2) by reviewing sale prices of comparable buildings in the Mt. Pleasant, Michigan area. The relocation is expected to be completed by the end of 2009.

On July 7, 2009, the Company announced that it would be closing its manufacturing facility in South Beloit, Illinois and relocating the manufacturing operations to certain of the Company’s other facilities. In connection with this decision, the Company completed an impairment analysis. The facility which had a carrying value of $2.1 million was written down to the fair value of $1.5 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $0.6 million. The Company estimated the fair value using observable inputs (level 2). The Company reviewed sale prices of comparable buildings in the South Beloit, Illinois area. The relocation is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2010. In September 2009, the Company negotiated a plant closing agreement with the local union at the South Beloit facility. The Company has agreed to pay approximately $0.7 million in severance and performance bonuses to those employees who remain employed through their termination date. The Company expects to pay these amounts in the fourth quarter of 2009 through the first quarter of 2010.

The Company expects to move a majority of the assets at this location to certain other locations. As a result, the Company does not expect to have a significant impairment on these assets.

The Company has filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to allow it to issue debt securities that may be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Company’s, directly or indirectly, 100% owned U.S. domestic subsidiaries as of the date of issuance. The following condensed consolidating financial statements present separately the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for (a) the Company, as parent, (b) the guarantor subsidiaries of the Company consisting of all of the, directly or indirectly, 100% owned U.S. domestic subsidiaries of the Company, (c) the non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Company consisting of all non-domestic subsidiaries of the Company, and (d) eliminations necessary to arrive at the Company’s information on a consolidated basis. These statements are presented in accordance with the disclosure requirements under the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation S-X, Rule 3-10. Separate financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented because their guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several.

ALL SUBSEQUENT WRITTEN AND ORAL FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO US OR ANY PERSON ACTING ON THE COMPANY’S BEHALF ARE EXPRESSLY QUALIFIED IN THEIR ENTIRETY BY THE CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS CONTAINED OR REFERRED TO IN THIS SECTION AND IN OUR RISK FACTORS SET FORTH IN PART I, ITEM 1A OF THE COMPANY’S ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, AND IN OTHER REPORTS FILED WITH THE SEC BY THE COMPANY.

The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of Altra Holdings, Inc. should be read together with the audited financial statements of Altra Holdings, Inc. and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

General

Altra Holdings, Inc. is the parent company of Altra Industrial Motion, Inc. (“Altra Industrial”) and owns 100% of Altra Industrial’s outstanding capital stock. Altra Industrial, directly or indirectly, owns 100% of the capital stock of its 48 subsidiaries. The following chart illustrates a summary of our corporate structure:

Although we were incorporated in Delaware in 2004, much of our current business has its roots with the prior acquisition by Colfax Corporation, or Colfax, of a series of power transmission businesses. In December 1996, Colfax acquired the MPT group of Zurn Technologies, Inc. Colfax subsequently acquired Industrial Clutch Corp. in May 1997, Nuttall Gear Corp. in July 1997 and the Boston Gear and Delroyd Worm Gear brands in August 1997 as part of Colfax’s acquisition of Imo Industries, Inc. In February 2000, Colfax acquired Warner Electric, Inc., which sold products under the Warner Electric, Formsprag Clutch, Stieber, and Wichita Clutch brands. Colfax formed Power Transmission Holding LLC, or PTH, in June 2004 to serve as a holding company for all of these power transmission businesses. Boston Gear was established in 1877, Warner Electric, Inc. in 1927, and Wichita Clutch in 1949.

On November 30, 2004, we acquired our original core business through the acquisition of PTH from Colfax. We refer to this transaction as the PTH Acquisition.

On October 22, 2004, The Kilian Company, or Kilian, a company formed at the direction of Genstar Capital, acquired Kilian Manufacturing Corporation from Timken U.S. Corporation. At the completion of the PTH Acquisition, (i) all of the outstanding shares of Kilian capital stock were exchanged for shares of our capital stock and (ii) Kilian and its subsidiaries were transferred to our wholly owned subsidiary.

On February 10, 2006, we purchased all of the outstanding share capital of Hay Hall Holdings Limited, or Hay Hall. Hay Hall is a UK-based holding company established in 1996 that is focused primarily on the manufacture of couplings and clutch brakes. Hay Hall consists of five main businesses that are niche focused and have strong brand names and established reputations within their primary markets.

Through Hay Hall, we acquired 15 strong brands in complementary product lines, improved customer leverage, and expanded geographic presence in over 11 countries. Hay Hall’s product offerings diversified our revenue base and strengthened our key product areas, such as electric clutches, brakes, and couplings. Matrix International, Inertia Dynamics, and Twiflex, three Hay Hall businesses, combined with Warner Electric, Wichita Clutch, Formsprag Clutch, and Stieber, make the consolidated company one of the largest individual manufacturers of industrial clutches and brakes in the world.

On May 18, 2006, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Bear Linear. Bear Linear manufactures high value-added linear actuators which are electromechanical power transmission devices designed to move and position loads linearly for mobile off-highway and industrial applications. Bear Linear’s product design

and engineering expertise, coupled with our sourcing alliance with a low cost country manufacturer, were critical components in our strategic expansion within the motion control market.

On April 5, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of TB Wood’s. TB Wood’s is an established designer, manufacturer, and marketer of mechanical and electronic industrial power transmission products with a history dating back to 1857.

On October 5, 2007, we acquired substantially all of the assets of All Power Transmission Manufacturing, Inc., or All Power.

On December 31, 2007, we sold the TB Wood’s adjustable speed drives business or Electronics Division, to Vacon, Inc. We sold the Electronics Division in order to continue our strategic focus on our core electro-mechanical power transmission business.

The subsidiaries of Altra Industrial design, produce and market a wide range of mechanical power transmission (“MPT”) and motion control products. The business conducted at our subsidiaries is organized into five operating segments; Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes, Heavy Duty Clutches & Brakes, Overrunning Clutches & Engineered Bearing Assemblies, Engineered Couplings and Gearing & Belted Drives. We have a presence in over 70 countries. Our global sales and marketing network includes over 1,000 direct original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”) and over 3,000 distributor outlets. We are headquartered in Braintree, Massachusetts.

Our operating segments, principal brands and principal markets are set forth below:


Operating Segment	Principal Brands	Principal Markets

Heavy Duty Clutches & Brakes	Wichita Clutch Twiflex Industrial Clutch	Energy Metals Marine
Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes	Warner Electric Matrix International Inertia Dynamics Warner Linear	Turf and Garden Forklift Elevator Material Handling

Business Outlook

Our future financial performance depends, in large part, on conditions in the markets that we serve and on the U.S. and global economies in general. During November and December 2008, we saw a significant change in economic conditions both in North America and internationally as most of our end markets experienced dramatic downturns. During the fourth quarter of 2008, we began to see several of our distributors

and OEM customers implement inventory reduction programs which continued throughout the first two quarters of 2009. Beginning in the third quarter of 2009, it appeared that inventory reduction efforts by our customers began to come to an end as sales to our largest distribution customers improved during the third quarter. However, we continue to expect weakness in order rates for the remainder of 2009 as compared with 2008.

In response to the continued challenging economic conditions of 2009, we have taken and continue to take swift and aggressive actions to reduce our expenses and maximize near-term profitability. Our cost-reduction initiatives are centered on three areas: workforce cutbacks, plant consolidations and procurement and other cost reductions. In February 2009, the Company’s discretionary 401(k) match was suspended and a temporary reduction in executive compensation was initiated. On June 1, 2009, the Company announced the temporary suspension of all Company contributions to the 401(k) plan. We also have announced a general hiring freeze, a freeze of all non-union employee salaries and reduced work schedules. During the year to date period ended September 26, 2009, we incurred $5.4 million of restructuring expense including a $2.0 million non-cash charge primarily related to impairment charges at the Mount Pleasant and South Beloit facilities that are expected to close in 2009 and in the first quarter of 2010, respectively. The remaining expense relates mainly to severance. We expect to incur between an additional $2.5 and $3.5 million of expenses associated with workforce reduction and consolidation of facilities in 2009 and between $1.3 million and $1.9 million of such additional expenses in 2010. Beginning in 2010, we expect to see annualized savings from the headcount reductions and consolidation of facilities of approximately $30 million. We expect savings in 2009 to be $17.9 million. Including procurement and other cost reduction efforts, annualized savings would be approximately $77 million (approximately $60 million in 2009). We estimate that once volume returns to prior year levels, between $10 and $12 million of these savings will be permanent in nature.

We will continue our strong focus on working capital management and cash flow generation with the intent of improving our liquidity by reducing inventory and accounts receivable levels. As of September 26, 2009, we have a cash balance of $71.9 million.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect our reported amounts of assets, revenues and expenses, as well as related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on past experiences and other assumptions we believe to be appropriate, and we evaluate these estimates on an on-going basis. Management believes there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2008, except as listed below. See the discussion of critical accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Goodwill, Intangibles and other long-lived assets. In connection with our acquisitions, goodwill and intangible assets were identified and recorded at their fair value. We recorded intangible assets for customer relationships, trade names and trademarks, product technology, patents and goodwill. In valuing the customer relationships, trade names and trademarks, we utilized variations of the income approach. The income approach was considered the most appropriate valuation technique because the inherent value of these assets is their ability to generate current and future income. The income approach relies on historical financial and qualitative information, as well as assumptions and estimates for projected financial information. Projected financial information is subject to risk if our estimates are incorrect. The most significant estimate relates to our projected revenues and profitability. If we do not meet the projected revenues and profitability used in the valuation calculations then the intangible assets could be impaired. In determining the value of customer relationships, we reviewed historical customer attrition rates which were determined to be approximately 4% per year. Most of our customers tend to be long-term customers with very little turnover. While we do not typically have long-term contracts with customers, we have established long-term relationships with customers which make it difficult for competitors to displace us. Additionally, we assessed historical revenue growth within our industry and customers’ industries in determining the value of customer relationships. The value of our customer relationships intangible asset could become impaired if future results differ significantly from any of the underlying assumptions. This could include a higher customer attrition rate or a change in industry

trends such as the use of long-term contracts which we may not be able to obtain successfully. Customer relationships and product technology and patents are considered finite-lived assets, with estimated lives ranging from 8 years to 16 years. The estimated lives were determined by calculating the number of years necessary to obtain 95% of the value of the discounted cash flows of the respective intangible asset. Goodwill and trade names and trademarks are considered indefinite lived assets. Trade names and trademarks were determined to be indefinite lived assets. Other intangible assets include trade names and trademarks that identify us and differentiate us from competitors, and therefore competition does not limit the useful life of these assets. Additionally, we believe that our trade names and trademarks will continue to generate product sales for an indefinite period.

As of December 31, 2008, goodwill was allocated to each of our twenty identified reporting units. We conducted an annual impairment review of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets as of December 31, 2008 at each of these reporting units.

The breakdown of reporting units by acquisition and acquisition date are as follows:


Colfax acquisition — November 30, 2004		12 reporting units
Hay Hall acquisition — February 10, 2006		5 reporting units (including Huco)
Warner Linear acquisition — May 18, 2006		1 reporting unit
TB Wood’s acquisition — April 5, 2007		1 reporting unit
All Power Transmission — October 5, 2007		1 reporting unit

Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2008, almost all of our reporting units were impacted by the general economic decline. The decline in our weekly order rates was significant and almost immediate. Between the week of November 7, 2008 and November 14, 2008 order rates declined 21%. Prior to that week, order rates had been flat or increasing for over a year. On a consolidated basis weekly order rates from the week of November 14, 2008 through the final full week of the year, (the week of December 19, 2008) decreased an additional 33%.

As part of the annual goodwill impairment assessment we estimated the fair value of each of our reporting units using an income approach. We forecasted future cash flows by reporting unit for each of the next five years and applied a long term growth rate to the final year of forecasted cash flows. The cash flows were then discounted using our estimated discount rate. The forecasts of revenue and profitability growth for use in the long-range plan and the discount rate were the key assumptions in our intangible fair value analysis. The following are the assumptions used in 2008 and 2007 in the calculation of estimated fair value for the reporting units that recorded a goodwill impairment as of December 31, 2008 (Huco, Warner Linear and TB Woods) and the reporting units that are at risk of recording a goodwill impairment in the future (TB Woods, Ameridrives, Matrix, All Power and Boston Gear). No goodwill remains at Huco or Warner Linear subsequent to the goodwill impairment in 2008.:

A continuation of the significant decrease in order rates in the final weeks of 2008 and into 2009 was a key assumption when developing our long-term revenue and profitability plan for our goodwill impairment analysis as of December 31, 2008. All of our reporting units assumed significantly lower sales and lower profitability for 2009 in their long-term growth plan when compared to the forecast used in the goodwill impairment analysis as of December 31, 2007. The discount rate was not changed significantly from the December 31, 2007 goodwill impairment analysis.

As a result of the goodwill impairment analysis, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $31.8 million at the TB Woods, Huco and Warner Linear reporting units as of December 31, 2008. The goodwill remaining at these reporting units, after the adjustment for goodwill impairments, was $23.5 million at TB Woods and there was no goodwill remaining at either Warner Linear or Huco. Due to prevailing market conditions at the time of the acquisitions of these three reporting units, the purchase price paid as consideration for these three acquisitions required a higher premium when compared to the prior 2004 Colfax acquisition and therefore created higher goodwill at these reporting units.

Prior to filing our Annual Report on Form 10-K on March 6, 2009, we reviewed the assumptions used in our goodwill impairment analysis and noted that they had not changed significantly from when we completed our goodwill impairment assessment.

We considered whether the sum of the fair value of all of our reporting units was reasonable when compared to our market capitalization on the date of the goodwill impairment analysis. As of December 31, 2008, our estimated enterprise fair value was $274.2 million. Our market capitalization was $208.7 million. The difference between the fair value of the enterprise and our market capitalization represented a control market premium of between 25% and 35%. We determined that a control market premium of between 25% and 35% was appropriate based on historical experience with purchase and sales transactions, the historical market trends based on our industry and the control market premium paid in relation to these transactions.

Management believes the preparation of revenue and profitability growth rates for use in the long-range plan and the discount rate requires significant use of judgment. If any of our reporting units do not meet our current year forecasted revenue and/or profitability estimates, we could be required to perform an interim goodwill impairment analysis. In addition, if our discount rate increases, we could be required to perform an interim goodwill impairment analysis. The following table shows the number of reporting units that could be required to perform an interim goodwill impairment analysis if forecasted profitability decreases or the estimated discount rate increases and the goodwill recorded at each of these reporting units. In management’s

opinion, these are the reasonably likely scenarios to occur and would have a material effect on the outcome of the fair value assessment and could result in a material goodwill impairment.

There are five reporting units that could be required to perform an interim impairment analysis if profitability decreased 15% and all other assumptions remain constant. The reporting units’ estimated fair value, carrying value and goodwill balance as of December 31, 2008 is as follows:

Long-lived assets, including definite-lived intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recovered. Long-lived assets are considered to be impaired if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset over its remaining useful life. If an asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value, and is charged to results of operations at that time.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, a goodwill impairment was identified and recorded at three reporting units which, in turn, triggered an impairment analysis with respect to long-lived assets at those reporting units.

For our definite lived intangible assets, mainly customer relationships, we estimated the future cash flows using the excess earnings method, a derivation of the discounted cash flow method. We estimated total revenue attributable to existing customer relationships and projected customer revenue growth for the remainder of the

projection period. Existing customer revenue was then multiplied by an attrition curve based on our historical attrition rates percent (approximately 4%) for each reporting unit. We estimated profitability for the customer relationship based on the overall reporting unit’s profitability. We compared the estimated future undiscounted cash flows to the carrying value of the customer relationship for each reporting unit and did not identify any impairment.

For our indefinite lived intangible assets, mainly trademarks, we estimated the fair value first by estimating the total revenue attributable to the trademarks for each of the reporting units. Second we estimated an appropriate royalty rate using the return on assets method by estimating the required financial return on our assets, excluding trademarks, less the overall return generated by our total asset base. The return as a percentage of revenue provides an indication of our royalty rate (approximately 1.5%). We compared the estimated fair value of our trademarks with the carrying value of the trademarks and did not identify any impairment.

During 2009, we have not identified any events that required us to perform an interim impairment analysis.

Net sales	$	104,766	$	159,448	$	(54,682	)		(34.3	)%

The decrease in sales was almost exclusively due to the overall economic decline which has impacted all of our end markets and industries. On a constant currency basis, sales decreased $50.1 million or 31.5%. Our Heavy Duty Clutch & Brake operating segment and our Global Couplings operating segment began to see decreases in sales in the second quarter of 2009, which has continued into the third quarter of 2009. Both of these operating segments sell into late cycle markets and have been impacted by volume decreases. We have seen some modest increases in our order rates at our other operating segments but until worldwide economic conditions improve, we expect continued weakness in our orders.

Gross Profit as a percent of sales		27.3	%		28.7	%

The decrease in gross profit was due to the significant decrease in sales. As a result of our decrease in sales, we have less leverage on our fixed costs. On a constant currency basis, gross profit decreased $15.8 million or 34.4%. We have taken actions to reduce our expenses and maximize near-term profitability. We expect our full year 2009 gross profit as a percentage of sales to decrease when compared to 2008.

SG&A as a percent of sales		18.4	%		16.1	%

The decrease in SG&A was due to our cost reduction efforts which began in the fourth quarter of 2008. Our cost reduction efforts were focused on headcount reductions and the elimination of non-critical expenses which decreased our overall SG&A costs. As a result of decreased sales volume we have seen a reduction in outside sales representative commission costs. In addition, during the quarter we required certain U.S. personnel to take furloughs. However, due to the significant decrease in sales, SG&A as a percent of sales increased despite our cost reductions. During the remainder of 2009, we expect to continue to reduce our SG&A costs through plant consolidations, additional headcount reductions and expense elimination.

	2009		2008		Change		%

Restructuring expenses	$	1,006	$	81	$	925		1142.0	%

During 2007, we adopted two restructuring programs. The first was intended to improve operational efficiency by reducing headcount, consolidating our operating facilities and relocating manufacturing to lower cost areas (the “Altra Plan”). The second was related to the acquisition of TB Wood’s and was intended to reduce duplicative staffing and consolidate facilities (the “TB Wood’s Plan”). We recorded approximately

$0.1 million of restructuring expenses in the third quarter of 2008 for moving and relocation, severance and non-cash asset impairment. There were no costs related to the Altra Plan or the TB Wood’s Plan incurred in 2009.

In March 2009, we adopted a new restructuring plan (the “2009 Altra Plan”) to improve the utilization of our manufacturing infrastructure and to realign our business with the current economic conditions. We expect the 2009 Altra Plan to improve operational efficiency by reducing headcount and consolidating certain facilities. During the third quarter of 2009, we recorded $1.0 million of restructuring expenses, of which $0.5 million was related to severance, $0.1 million was related to other restructuring charges, (primarily moving and relocation costs) and $0.4 million was non-cash impairment charges. We expect to incur between an additional $2.5 and $3.5 million of expenses associated with workforce reduction and consolidation of facilities in 2009 and between $1.3 million and $1.9 million of such additional expenses in 2010. Beginning in 2010, we expect to see annualized savings from the headcount reductions and consolidation of facilities of approximately $30 million. We expect savings in 2009 to be $17.9 million.

Interest Expense, net	$	6,290	$	7,302	$	(1,012	)		(13.9	)%

Net interest expense decreased due to the lower average outstanding balance of the Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Notes, resulting in a reduction of interest expense by $0.9 million. In addition, in the third quarter of 2008 we paid additional premiums of $0.5 million associated with the repurchase of Senior Secured Notes.

Other non-operating income for both quarters included rental income of $0.2 million for facility rentals under lease agreements which were part of the sale of TB Wood’s Electronics Division. The remaining balance in each period relates to changes in foreign currency, primarily the Pound Sterling and Euro which strengthened significantly in the third quarter of 2008.

During the third quarter of 2009, the Company negotiated an agreement with a foreign taxing authority. The agreement allows the Company to fully deduct certain interest charges that had previously been classified as non-deductible in 2009. The benefit from this deduction resulted in the Company recording a benefit for income taxes in the quarter to date period ended September 26, 2009.

Net sales	$	341,183	$	490,523	$	(149,340	)		(30.4	)%

The decrease in sales is almost exclusively due to the overall economic decline which has impacted all of our end markets and industries. On a constant currency basis, sales decreased $126.1 million or 25.7%. We saw substantial decreases in sales at our Heavy Duty Clutch & Brake operating segment and at our Global Couplings operating segment beginning in the second quarter of 2009, which has continued into the third quarter of 2009. Both of these operating segments sell into late cycle markets and began to see volume decreases in the second quarter of 2009. As a result, on a year to date basis Heavy Duty Clutch & Brake sales decreased 20.2% and Global Couplings decreased 22.1%. We have seen some modest increases in our order rates in our other operating segments but until worldwide economic conditions improve, we expect continued weakness in our orders.

The decrease in gross profit was due to the significant decrease in sales. As a result of our decrease in sales, we have less leverage on our fixed costs. On a constant currency basis, gross profit decreased $45.2 million or 31.4%. We have taken actions to reduce our expenses and maximize near-term profitability. We expect our full year 2009 gross profit as a percentage of sales to decrease when compared to 2008.

The decrease in SG&A was due to our cost reduction efforts which began in the fourth quarter of 2008. Our cost reduction efforts were focused on headcount reductions and the elimination of non-critical expenses which decreased our overall SG&A costs. As a result of decreased sales volume we have seen a reduction in outside sales representative commission costs. In addition, we have suspended the 401(k) company and matching contributions and required furloughs. However, due to the significant decrease in sales, SG&A as a percent of sales increased despite our cost reductions. During the remainder of 2009, we expect to continue to reduce our SG&A costs through plant consolidations, additional headcount reductions and expense elimination.

As discussed above, during 2007, we adopted the Altra Plan and the TB Wood’s Plan.. We recorded approximately $1.1 million in the year to date period ended September 27, 2008 of restructuring expenses for moving and relocation, severance and non-cash asset impairment. There were no costs related to the Altra Plan or the TB Wood’s Plan incurred in 2009.

As discussed above, in March 2009, we adopted the 2009 Altra Plan. The 2009 Altra Plan will improve operational efficiency by reducing headcount and consolidating certain facilities. During the third quarter of 2009, we recorded $1.0 million of restructuring $0.5 million related to severance, $0.1 million related to other restructuring charges, mainly moving and relocation costs and $0.4 million of non-cash impairment charges. We expect to incur between an additional $2.5 and $3.5 million of expenses associated with workforce reduction and consolidation of facilities in 2009 and between $1.3 million and $1.9 million of such additional expenses in 2010. Beginning in 2010, we expect to see annualized savings from the headcount reductions and consolidation of facilities of approximately $30 million. We expect savings in 2009 to be $17.9 million.

Net interest expense decreased due to the lower average outstanding balance of the Senior Secured Notes and Senior Notes, resulting in a reduction of interest expense by $2.4 million. In addition, in the year to date period ended September 27, 2008, we re-paid $27.5 million of the Senior Secured Notes and $1.3 million of the Senior Notes at a premium of $1.4 million. In the year to date period ended September 26, 2009, we re-paid $22.2 million of the Senior Secured Notes and $5.0 million of the Senior Notes at a net premium of $0.1 million.

Other post employment benefit plan settlement gain

In March 2009, we reached a new collective bargaining agreement with the union at our Erie, Pennsylvania facility. One of the provisions of the new agreement eliminates benefits that employees were entitled to receive through the existing other post employment benefit plan (“OPEB”). OPEB benefits will no longer be available for retired and active employees. This resulted in an OPEB settlement gain of $1.5 million in the year to date period ended September 26, 2009.

Other non-operating income for both quarters included rental income of $0.3 million for facility rentals under lease agreements which were part of the sale of the Electronics Division. This amount is offset by an adjustment to the assets that had previously been held for sale. During the first quarter of 2009, we reclassified two buildings from assets held for sale to assets held and used. We recorded a cumulative catch up of depreciation expense of $0.2 million. In addition, during the second quarter of 2009, we sold Saftek Ltd., Inc. In connection with the sale we recorded a $0.2 million loss on the sale. The remaining balance in each period relates to changes in foreign currency, primarily the Pound Sterling and Euro.

Discontinued Operations

On December 31, 2007, the Company completed the divestiture of the TB Wood’s adjustable speed drives business (“Electronics Division”) to Vacon PLC (“Vacon”) for $29.0 million. The decision to sell the Electronics Division was made to allow the Company to continue its strategic focus on its core electro-mechanical power transmission business.

The $0.2 million loss from discontinued operations in the year to date period ended September 27, 2008 was comprised of a working capital adjustment, net of taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We finance our capital and working capital requirements through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under our Senior Revolving Credit Agreement. We expect that our primary ongoing requirements for cash will be for working capital, debt service, capital expenditures, expenditures in connection with restructuring activities and pension plan funding. In the event additional funds are needed, we could borrow additional funds under our Senior Revolving Credit Agreement, attempt to refinance our 9% Senior Secured Notes, or attempt to raise capital in debt or equity markets. Presently, we have capacity under our Senior Revolving Credit Agreement to borrow $26.8 million. Of this total capacity, we can borrow up to approximately $14.3 million without being required to comply with any financial covenants under the agreement. In order to refinance the existing 9% Senior Secured Notes, we would incur a pre-payment premium of 4.5% of the principal balance through December 1, 2009, 2.3% through December 1, 2010 and 0% after that date. There can be no assurance however that additional debt financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Similarly, there can be no assurance that equity financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

Despite a net income of $0.3 million in the first nine months of 2009, during that period we saw an increase in our cash balance of $19.9 million versus an increase in our cash balance of $4.0 million in the same period in 2008. Our continued focus on managing working capital allowed us to continue to generate cash flows from operations. We expect to continue to be able to generate cash flows from operations for the remainder of 2009 primarily from working capital management.

Net Cash

	2009		2008
	(In thousands)

Cash and cash equivalents	$	71,940	$	52,073

Cash and cash equivalents increased $19.9 million in the year to date period ended September 26, 2009.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the year to date period ended September 26, 2009 was $52.1 million. This resulted primarily from cash provided from net income, the add-back of non-cash

depreciation, amortization, stock based compensation, accretion of net debt discount, deferred financing costs, non-cash loss on foreign currency and a fixed asset impairment charge all totaling $25.1 million. In addition, there was a net decrease in working capital of $28.4 million. The decrease in working capital was mainly due to a decrease in inventory of $27.6 million, due to a focus on reducing our inventory levels throughout the organization. This was partially offset by a non-cash other post employment benefit plan settlement gain of $1.5 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $5.1 million for the year to date period ended September 26, 2009. This resulted from the purchase of manufacturing equipment.

Net cash used by financing activities was $30.1 million for the year to date period ended September 26, 2009. This resulted primarily from repurchases of our Senior Notes of $5.0 million and our Senior Secured Notes of $22.2 million, payment on our Senior Revolving Credit Agreement of $3.0 million, payments of capital lease obligations of $0.6 million,$0.5 million of payments on mortgages and $0.3 million of shares repurchased due to tax withholding. This was offset by the proceeds from additional borrowings under an existing mortgage of $1.5 million.

Total Capitalization	$	302.3	100	%	$	340.2	100	%

As of September 26, 2009, we had approximately $233.9 million of total indebtedness outstanding including capital leases and mortgages. Approximately 98% of our borrowings are fixed rate loans and therefore we do not believe that our vulnerability to interest rate changes is significant.

Our Senior Revolving Credit Agreement provides for senior secured financing of up to $30.0 million, including $10.0 million available for letters of credit through November 30, 2010. The Senior Revolving Credit Agreement requires us to comply with a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.20 for all four quarter periods when availability falls below $12.5 million. Our availability under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement has never dropped below $12.5 million and we do not believe that it will in the foreseeable future. Our 9% Senior Secured Notes do not contain any financial covenants. As of September 26, 2009, there were no outstanding borrowings, but there were $3.2 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under our Senior Revolving Credit Agreement.

We were in compliance with all financial and non-financial covenants under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement and Senior Secured Notes as of September 26, 2009.

We had $3.0 million of principal borrowings outstanding and $6.1 million of outstanding letters of credit as of September 26, 2009 under the TB Wood’s Revolving Credit Agreement, which is due in 2010.

We made capital expenditures of approximately $5.1 million and $12.2 million in the year to date periods ended September 26, 2009 and September 27, 2008, respectively. These capital expenditures were used to support on-going manufacturing requirements. We expect to have additional capital expenditures of between $3.0 million and $4.0 million for the remainder of 2009.

We have cash funding requirements associated with our pension plan which are estimated to be zero for the remainder of 2009, $0.5 million for 2010, $1.5 million for 2011, $1.5 million for 2012 and $1.5 million for 2013.

Our ability to make scheduled payments of principal and interest, to fund planned capital expenditures and to meet our pension plan funding obligations will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future. Based on our current level of operations, we believe that cash flow from operations and available cash, together with available borrowings under our Senior Revolving Credit Agreement will be adequate to meet our future liquidity requirements for at least the next two years. However, our ability to generate cash is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control.

There can be no assurance that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, that any revenue growth or operating improvements will be realized or that future borrowings will be available under our senior secured credit facility in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness, including the notes, or to fund our other liquidity needs. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, including our Senior Revolving Credit Agreement and the Senior Secured Notes as they become due. Our ability to access capital in the long term will depend, among other things, on the condition of capital markets and on the availability of capital to us on commercially reasonable terms, if at all, at the time we are seeking funds. See the Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 for further discussion of certain factors that may affect our liquidity. In addition, our ability to borrow funds under our Senior Revolving Credit Agreement will depend on our ability to satisfy the financial and non-financial covenants contained in that agreement.

Contractual Obligations

From time to time, we may repurchase our Senior Secured Notes in open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions, subject to certain restrictions in our Senior Revolving Credit Agreement. As of September 26, 2009, the remaining principal balance on our Senior Secured Notes was $220.3 million. The balance is due December 1, 2011.

Other than repayments of debt, there were no significant changes in our contractual obligations subsequent to December 31, 2008.


Item 3.	*Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk*

We have exposure to changes in commodity prices principally related to metals including steel, copper and aluminum. We primarily manage the risk associated with such increases through the use of surcharges or general pricing increases for the related products. We do not engage in the use of financial instruments to hedge our commodities price exposure.

During the reporting period, there have been no material changes to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding our market risk set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.


Item 4.	*Controls and Procedures*

The term “disclosure controls and procedures” is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or the Exchange Act. These rules refer to the controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-Q, is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions

regarding required disclosures. As of September 26, 2009, or the Evaluation Date, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a) — 15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended September 26, 2009, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
