Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

         On September 20, 1996, AM International, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), completed the sale of the 2,148,000 shares of AM Japan Co.,
Ltd. ("AM Japan") owned by the Company.  The sale was completed pursuant to the
terms of a tender offer as provided in a definitive agreement entered into on
August 21, 1996 by the Company, JAC Co., Ltd., a Japanese marketing firm, and
its President, Mr. Shigeru Watanabe (a copy of which is incorporated herein by
reference as Exhibit 2 hereto).  In the tender offer, the Company sold its
shares of AM Japan at a price of yen 575 per share (or approximately $5.33 per
share at the prevailing exchange rate on August 21, 1996, the date of execution
of the definitive agreement).  The terms of this sale were determined by
arms-length negotiations between the parties.  A gain of approximately $2.6
million is anticipated to be recorded in the first quarter of the Company's
fiscal year ending July 31, 1997 as a result of the transaction.

         The Company's historical consolidated financial statements have been
restated to reflect the sale of its Sheridan Systems division ("Sheridan
Systems") and its previously divested Multigraphics - International Operations
as discontinued operations.  The unaudited pro forma financial statements
incorporated by reference herein illustrate the effect of certain adjustments to
the historical consolidated financial statements that resulted from the sale of
Sheridan Systems and the sale of the Company's interest in AM Japan, as if the
sales and related transactions had occurred at the beginning of the periods
presented for the Consolidated Statements of Income from Continuing Operations
and as of April 27, 1996 for the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

                              DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

          This Agreement (this "Agreement"), made and entered into by and among
AM International Inc. (the "Seller"), JAC Co., Ltd. ("JAC"), its President and
Representative Director, Shigeru Watanabe ("Watanabe"; JAC and Watanabe being
hereinafter collectively called the "Buyers") and AM Japan Co., Ltd. ("AMJ")
with respect to the sale of the shares of AMJ owned by the Seller to the Buyers.

ARTICLE 1. AGREEMENT AND PURPOSE OF SALE OF SHARES

          1.   Upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Seller
agrees to sell to the Buyers, and the Buyers jointly and severally agree to
purchase from the Seller, 2,148,000 shares of AMJ owned by the Seller at the
Purchase Price (as defined in sub-paragraph (3) of Article 2) on the date of
commencement of settlement of the tender offer specified in sub-paragraph (5) of
Article 2 (the "Closing Date"); provided, however, that, if, as a result of the
Tender Offer (as defined in Article 2), the number of shares tendered therein
exceeds the aggregate of the "number of shares to be purchased" and "the excess
number of shares to be purchased" as set forth in sub-paragraph (2) of Article
2, then the number of shares to be purchased by the Buyers from the Seller
hereunder on the Closing Date shall be equal to such number as is calculated in
accordance with the proration method as provided in paragraph 5 of Article 27-13
of the Securities and Exchange Law, in which case, if the number of the shares
so calculated is short of the said 2,148,000 shares, JAC shall be obligated to
purchase such shortfall at the Purchase Price as soon as practicable within 70
days after the Closing Date.  The shares of AMJ to be sold by the Seller to the
Buyers hereunder on the Closing Date shall be hereinafter called the "Shares."

          2.   The purpose of the sale of the Shares contemplated hereby is the
transfer of the controlling interest in AMJ from the Seller to the Buyers.

ARTICLE 2. TENDER OFFER

          The sale of the Shares set forth in paragraph 1 of Article 1 shall be
consummated by way of a tender offer (the "Tender Offer").  The Buyers shall
jointly conduct the Tender Offer, pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law,
and upon the terms and conditions set forth below, and the Seller shall tender
2,148,000 shares in the Tender Offer.  Expenses necessary for the Tender Offer
shall  be borne by the Buyers:

     (1)  Tender offer agent:  Yamaichi Securities Company, Limited
          ("Yamaichi").

          The Buyers shall enter into a Tender Offer Agency Agreement with
          Yamaichi with respect to the Tender Offer on the business day
          immediately preceding the date of commencement of the Tender Offer.

     (2)  Number of shares to be purchased:  2,148,000 shares.

          Excess number of shares to be purchased:  52,000 shares.

          Provided that, if the number of shares tendered in the Tender Offer
          exceeds the aggregate of the "number of shares to be purchased" and
          the "excess number of shares to be purchased," the number of shares to
          be purchased shall be equal to such number as shall be calculated in 

<PAGE>   2

          accordance with the proration method as provided in sub-paragraph 5 of
          Article 27-13 of the Securities and Exchange Law.

     (3)  Purchase price:  yen 575 per share (the "Purchase Price").

     (4)  Tender offer period:  From August 28, 1996 to September 17, 1996,
          provided that such tender offer period may be changed by agreement
          among parties hereto.  The tender offer period set forth in this
          sub-paragraph shall be hereinafter called the "Tender Offer Period."

     (5)  Date of commencement of settlement of tender offer:  September 20,
          1996, provided that such commencement of settlement of tender offer
          may be changed by agreement among parties hereto.

ARTICLE 3. CLOSING

          The Buyers shall remit an amount obtained by multiplying the number of
the Shares by the Purchase Price (the "Aggregate Purchase Price") to the bank
account to be designated by Yamaichi not later than the day immediately
preceding the Closing Date.

          On the Closing Date, Yamaichi shall (a) remit an amount equal to the
Aggregate Purchase Price received from the Buyers less securities transfer tax
to be imposed on the sale of the Shares (in the amount of 0.21% of the Aggregate
Purchase Price) to the bank account to be designated by the Seller, (b) deliver
the share certificates for the Shares received from the Seller to the Buyers and
(c) (if any part of the shares tendered by the Seller in the Tender Offer have
not been purchased by the Buyers on the Closing Date as a result of the
proration set forth in the proviso to sub-paragraph (2) of Article 2) return the
unpurchased shares to the Seller.

          number of the outstanding shares of AMJ: the Seller has no other
          shares of AMJ; the Shares are duly and validly issued and fully-paid;
          and there is no security interest or any other encumbrance subsisting
          on the Shares which may prevent the sale of the Shares by the Seller.

     (2)  Dealership Agreement:

          The Seller has entered into a Dealership Agreement (the "Dealership
          Agreement") of even date herewith with AMJ in such form and substance
          reasonably satisfactory to the Seller, AMJ and the Buyers; and the
          Dealership Agreement is a valid and binding agreement between the
          Seller and AMJ enforceable against them in accordance with its terms.

     liabilities.  However, no interest income has been reflected relative to
     the investment of such net proceeds.

(c)  Interest expense has been reduced to give effect to the repayment of the
