10.13.2 All Environmental Permits have been obtained, are in force and, to Seller’s Knowledge, have been complied with since January 1, 2003, except where failure to obtain, maintain or comply with Environmental Permits would not have an Environmental Material Adverse Effect.

10.13.6 Certain BOMAG Group Companies manufactured certain walk-behind rollers and plates, rubber tire rollers and single drum rollers in Germany between 1969 and 1994 that included a component part containing asbestos. To the

- 35 -

Seller’s Knowledge, a total of approximately 7,000 of those units were manufactured in Germany and shipped to the United States for distribution during the time period of approximately 1981 to current (records do not exist for earlier periods). Seller believes approximately five percent (5%) of units shipped to the United States were distributed to countries outside of the United States after they reached BOMAG America’s U.S. plant.

Seller estimates that the normal lifespan of these units is as follows: (i) walk-behind rollers and plates up to ten (10) years, and (ii) large, ride-on rollers: up to 15 years. The walk-behind rollers and plates were manufactured between 1969 and 1988. With a 10-year life-span, Seller believes most of these type rollers and plates are no longer in service. The rubber tire rollers with asbestos containing components were manufactured between 1980 and 1994. The single drum rollers with asbestos containing components were manufactured between 1980 and 1989. With a 15-year life span, Seller believes that most of the units manufactured prior to 1990 would no longer be in service.

Finally, most units would require routine maintenance and replacement of the asbestos containing components at approximately the five-year point after manufacture. Any unit, which underwent such maintenance may have had any such asbestos component replaced with non-asbestos component parts.

11.5 Purchaser shall not be entitled to any recovery, relief or claim for the incorrectness of any Purchaser’s Assumption or for any other failure of Seller under this Agreement, if Purchaser knew or should have known that such Purchaser’s Assumption or

Purchaser hereby waives any right to seek contribution or other recovery from Seller or from any of its Affiliates that it may now or in the future ever have under any Environmental Law, including, without limitation, 42 U.S.C. §§ 9607 and 9613(f) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), Sec. 4, Sec. 7, and Sec. 24 of the German Federal Soil Protection Act, and similar provisions under any other Environmental Law, as such laws were in the past or are currently in effect, or may in the future be enacted or be in effect.

(b) imposed or payable in connection with any actual or deemed service, sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible); or

(c) required to be deducted from any actual or deemed payment, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable period ended on (and included) the Closing Date; and

(ii) in the case of Taxes not falling within Section (i) and imposed or payable on a periodic basis with respect to the assets of any BOMAG Group Company, or otherwise measured by the level of any item, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period), multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the period ending on (and including) the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period; and

(iii) in the case of other Taxes not falling within Section (i) or Section (ii), deemed equal to an amount calculated on a just and reasonable basis.

13.1.5 Payments of the Seller or the Relevant Shareholder to the Purchaser shall be considered to be a reduction of the Purchase Price and shall in no case give the relevant BOMAG Group Company a right or claim against the Seller. Payments of the Purchaser to the Seller represent an increase of the Purchase Price.

between the Seller and the Purchaser relating to the subject matter of this Agreement at the date hereof to the exclusion of any terms implied by law which may be excluded by contract and supersedes any previous written or oral agreement between the Seller and the Purchaser in relation to the matters dealt with in this Agreement, except for the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall remain in force until Closing in accordance with Section 15.2.1 of this Agreement.

18.3 Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, neither the Seller nor the Purchaser may without the prior written consent of the other, assign, grant any security interest over, hold on trust or otherwise transfer the benefit of the whole or any part of this Agreement, except within the Purchaser’s Group.
