ITEM 2.     ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
            ------------------------------------

            On February 1, 1995 (the "Closing Date") pursuant to the Stock
            Purchase Agreement dated as of November 28, 1994 (the "Purchase
            Agreement"), Cincinnati Milacron Inc. (the "Registrant")
            indirectly acquired the capital stock of Krupp Widia GmbH, a
            German corporation ("Widia") from Fried. Krupp AG Hoesch-Krupp, a
            German corporation (the "Seller").  (The Registrant indirectly
            acquired 99.92% of Widia's capital stock and B.T. Foreign
            Investment Corp. holds the remainder.)  The purchase includes
            Widia's 51% interest in Widia (India), Ltd., a public company
            ("Widia-India") and wholly-owned Widia subsidiaries in eleven
            other countries.  A copy of the Purchase Agreement is filed
            herewith as Exhibit 2.1 and reference is made thereto for the
            complete terms and conditions thereof.

            The total purchase price, including assumed debt and liabilities
            of approximately 33,000,000 DM, is approximately 154,000,000 DM
            (approximately $99,000,000 using the exchange rate in effect on
            the Closing Date).  Included in the assumed debt and liabilities
            is approximately 19,000,000 DM (approximately $12,000,000) of
            debt owed by Widia-India.  The Registrant obtained the funds for
            the purchase through, or in connection with, an amendment to its
            revolving credit facility with its existing bank group, which was
            amended prior to the Closing Date to increase the Total Revolving
            Loan Commitment from $130,000,000 to $200,000,000 and to allow up
            to $100,000,000 of such amount to be drawn in Deutsch Marks (a
            copy of the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement dated
            as of December 31, 1994, is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and
            reference is made thereto for the complete terms and conditions
            thereof (including the identity of the parties thereto)).
            125,000,000 DM (approximately $80,000,000) of the Total Revolving
            Loan Commitment was drawn in connection with the acquisition.

            No material relationship exists between the Seller and the
            Registrant or any of its affiliates, directors or officers, or
            any associate of any such directors or officers.

            Widia is one of the world's leading producers of metalcutting
            products including carbide inserts and steel insert holders. 
            Widia is also a leading supplier of carbide die and wear products
            and industrial magnets.  The Registrant intends to operate Widia
            as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant and to have Widia
            continue to use a majority of its plant, equipment and other
            physical property substantially as it did prior to the Closing
            Date.

            The Press Release of the Registrant dated February 1, 1995,
            announcing the completion of the acquisition described above is
            filed herewith as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by
            reference.

                              REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Board of Directors
Cincinnati Milacron Inc.

We have audited the accompanying combined statements of net assets of
Widia GmbH (the "Acquired Business", see Note 1) subject to the Stock
Purchase Agreement between Fried. Krupp AG Hoesch-Krupp and Cincinnati
Milacron Inc. as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related
combined statements of operations, and cash flows for the years then
ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Acquired Business' Management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards in Germany and the United States.  Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the combined net assets of the
Acquired Business as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the combined
results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then
ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in
Germany. 

Generally accepted accounting principles in Germany vary in certain
significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States. Application of generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States would have affected the results of
operations for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, and net
assets as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, to the extent summarized in
Note 3 to the combined financial statements.

                        Notes to Combined Financial Statements


1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE ACQUIRED BUSINESS

On November 28, 1994, a Stock Purchase Agreement ("the Agreement") was
entered into between Fried. Krupp AG Hoesch-Krupp ("Krupp"), a German
company, and Cincinnati Milacron Inc. ("Milacron"), a United States
company. Krupp agreed to sell to Milacron the Widia GmbH entity and
certain Widia GmbH foreign sales and service subsidiaries, collectively
referred to hereafter as the "Acquired Business", and the related
assets, liabilities and shareholdings as specified in the Agreement.

The Agreement specifies that, among other things, effective on or prior
to the closing date, Krupp is to contribute the elements of the
Acquired Business to the wholly-owned subsidiary, Widia GmbH, which
will then be transferred to Milacron. As of December 31, 1994, not all
of the transactions as specified in the agreement have been completed.

The Acquired Business includes the manufacturing, assembling, selling
and distributing tools and wear parts of sintered carbide and other
hard materials and magnets. These operations are accounted for in one
industry segment, Industrial Products.

Due to the organization and reporting structure of Krupp, summarized
financial records of the acquired business were not maintained as one
consolidated group. Further, certain services such as financing and
administration were provided by Krupp to the acquired business.
Therefore, the accompanying financial statements do not purport to
present the net assets or results of operations and cash flows of the
acquired business as if it had been operated as a separate,
unaffiliated entity, but rather as a component of Krupp's overall
business during the periods presented.


2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The accounting principles and valuation methods of the Acquired
Business have been consistently applied for both years presented.

ALL MONETARY AMOUNTS HEREIN ARE SHOWN IN THOUSANDS OF DEUTSCHE MARKS.

combined financial statements and the related equity ownership interest
of the Acquired Business at December 31, 1994 are as follows:

   (shares held by Widia

   Widaroc India Limited in the process of being merged
   upon Widia (India) Limited without affecting the
   shareholding of Meturit AG in Widia (India) Limited.

* As of December 31, 1994, these entities have not yet been obtained by
Widia GmbH.


For all of the above listed entities, in which the Acquired Business
has more than a 50% equity ownership interest (the "affiliated
entities"), the full consolidation method has been used, except that in
1994 the subsidiary in Kobe, Japan, Krupp Widia Japan Limited, is not
consolidated, but is effectively accounted for under the equity method
of accounting. This subsidiary represented in 1993 less than one-half
of one percent of the net loss before transfer to Krupp and less than
three percent of sales of the acquired business. In regard to net
assets, the subsidiary represented in 1994 and 1993 approximately one-
half of one percent of the net assets of the acquired business.
Management believes that in 1994, the results and net assets of Widia
Japan Limited, would again have an immaterial impact on the
consolidated accounts and therefore has deemed this presentation
appropriate due to the natural disasters in that area.

Profit and Loss Transfer Agreements - The acquired business maintained
a profit and loss transfer agreement with Krupp whereby the majority of
the losses of the acquired business were transferred to Krupp. This
agreement was terminated for the 1994 fiscal year. The acquired
business also maintained a profit and loss transfer agreement with
Krupp Medizintechnik GmbH, which is not part of the acquired business,
whereby the results of Krupp Medizintechnik GmbH were transferred to
the acquired business.

Foreign Currency Translation - The foreign currency amounts
representing foreign affiliated entities in the combined statements of
net assets have been translated into DM at the fiscal year-end exchange
rates.  Amounts in the combined statements of operations have been
translated into DM using the average exchange rates for the periods
involved.  Translation gains or losses are included in net assets.

Intangible Assets - Intangible assets consist mainly of goodwill
arising on the acquisition of Widia Heinlein GmbH and purchased
computer software.  Amortization is provided using the straight-line
method over fifteen years for goodwill and generally four years for
computer software.

Fixed Assets - Fixed assets are valued at acquisition cost. 
Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the
assets' useful lives as follows:

Fixed Assets 

              Buildings -                            25   - 50    years
              Technical facilities
                   and machinery -                    3   - 10    years
              Facilities, factory
                   and office equipment -             4   - 10    years


Inventories - Raw materials, manufacturing supplies and goods purchased
for resale are valued at the lower of cost, determined on an average,
or market. Finished goods are valued at the lower of manufacturing
cost, determined on an average or net realizable value and comprise
direct material and labor and applicable manufacturing overheads
including depreciation charges.  Obsolescence provisions are made to
the extent that inventory risks are determinable.

Trade Accounts Receivable - Receivables are presented net of allowances
for doubtful accounts.  Allowances are provided for both the specific
and general risks inherent in receivables.  The Acquired Business
evaluates the credit worthiness of each customer, but it does not
normally require its trade accounts receivable to be collateralized.

Income Taxes - The entities comprising the Acquired Business maintain
substantially the same tax and financial reporting bases for assets and
liabilities and therefore deferred taxes generally do not result.

Pension Obligations - Accruals and provisions for pensions and similar
obligations are actuarially determined and are based on discounted
amounts.

Liabilities - Liabilities are presented at their repayment amounts.

Other Accruals - Accruals for employee termination indemnity are based
on contractual agreements between management and the Workers' Council. 
Accruals and provisions for estimated costs related to product warranty
are made at the time the products are sold. 

Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized when title passes or
services are rendered, net of discounts and rebates granted.

Foreign Currency Transactions - Foreign currency receivables and
payables are recorded at historical rates unless using the exchange
rate at the fiscal year-end would result in an unrealized foreign
currency exchange loss.  This results in unrealized losses being
recognized currently and unrealized gains being deferred until they are
realized.  Unrealized gains on foreign exchange forward contracts are
deferred and recognized as part of the specific transaction hedged, but
unrealized losses are recognized currently.

Total Cost Method - The statements of operations have been presented
using the total cost (or type of expenditure) method which is a common
German GAAP method in use. In this format, production and all other
expenses incurred during the period are classified by type of expense.
Sales for the period, and the net decrease in finished goods and work
in process are classified as Total Output.


3. SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN GERMAN GAAP AND US GAAP

The combined financial statements of the Acquired Business comply with
German GAAP as prescribed by the German Commercial Code, which differs
in certain significant respects from US GAAP.  The significant
differences which affect the combined net loss and combined net assets
of the Acquired Business are as follows:


a. Pensions - The Acquired Business provides for pension costs based on
actuarial studies using the entry age method as defined in the German
tax code.  US GAAP, as defined by SFAS No. 87, "Employers' Accounting
for Pensions", is more prescriptive, particularly as to the use of
actuarial assumptions, and requires that a different actuarial method
(the projected unit credit method) be used. The application of this
method is further described in Note 9. 

b. Special Depreciation - As allowed by German GAAP, depreciation may
be calculated utilizing accelerated depreciation methods with the
difference resulting between the accelerated and straight-line method
being regarded as a special depreciation reserve. Under US GAAP, this
practice is not acceptable. 

c. Financial Closing Accrual - In accordance with German GAAP, the
acquired business records an accrual at the end of the year for the
estimated future costs to be incurred in conjunction with the financial
close and reporting. This is not acceptable for US GAAP.

d. Loss Transfer - As allowed by German GAAP, the acquired business had
a profit and loss transfer agreement with Krupp whereby the majority of
the loss of the acquired business is transferred to Krupp. This
agreement was cancelled in 1994. This presentation is not acceptable
for US GAAP.

e. Profit Transfer - As allowed by German GAAP, the acquired business
also had a profit and loss transfer agreement with Krupp Medizintechnik
GmbH, which is not part of the acquired business, whereby the results
of Krupp Medizintechnik GmbH were transferred to the acquired business.
This presentation is not acceptable for US GAAP.  In 1994, the results
of Krupp Medizintechnik GmbH were funded by Krupp and included with
other operating income (see Note 18) and therefore no adjustment is
required in 1994.

f. Investment Grants - As allowed by German GAAP, the acquired business
records investment grants as other income. In accordance with US GAAP,
investment grants of this nature are to be recorded as a reduction of
the cost of the related asset.

g. Deferred Taxes - Under German GAAP, deferred taxes are calculated on
the liability method, but are recognized only to the extent that
consolidated deferred tax liabilities exceed consolidated deferred tax
assets. Under US GAAP, as prescribed by SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for
Income Taxes", deferred taxes are provided for all temporary
differences using enacted tax rates. There is, however, no deferred tax
adjustment below as deferred tax assets exceed deferred tax liabilities
and that a valuation allowance has been recorded as of December 31,
1994 and 1993 to the extent that deferred tax assets exceed deferred
tax liabilities due to the past poor operating results and uncertainty
of the future profitability of the acquired business.

Reconciliation to US GAAP - The following is a summary of the
significant adjustments to net loss for the years ended December 31,
1994 and 1993 and to net assets as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, which
would be required if US GAAP had been applied instead of German GAAP.

year).

Receivables from related entities are all due within one year.

9. PENSION OBLIGATIONS

The Acquired Business operates two defined benefit pension plans in
Germany, both based on years of service, to substantially all
employees.  One plan is for the benefit of non-exempt employees while
the other plan is for exempt employees. Pensions are related to average
earnings near retirement or earlier death or disability as well as to
fixed amounts.

Some of the foreign affiliated entities operate immaterial defined
benefit and defined contribution pension plans.

Pension benefit obligations are determined based on actuarial studies
using the entry age method as defined in the German tax code and are
based on an assumed interest rate of 6%. All of the material pension
plans are unfunded.

The following information for the Acquired Business' material pension
plans is provided on a US GAAP basis (see Note 3) in accordance with
the US GAAP disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 87.

The net periodic pension cost of the Acquired Business for the
retirement plans comprised:

For both 1994 and 1993, the assumed discount rate and rates of increase
in remuneration and post-retirement pension increases used in
calculating the projected benefit obligation were 7%, 4%, and 3%,
respectively.

As part of the sales agreement, Krupp agreed to maintain the liability
as of December 31, 1994 resulting from pension rights concerning those
employees who left the acquired business before June 1, 1983. This
amount of approximately 12,000 has therefore been excluded from the
total pension liability as of December 31, 1994 and decreased the
receivable from related entities as specified by the Agreement.

Various lawsuits arising during the normal course of business are
pending against the Acquired Business. In the opinion of the Acquired
Business' management, the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from
these matters will have no significant effect on the Acquired Business'
combined net assets.  The significance of these matters on the Acquired
Business' future operating results depends on the level of future
results of operations as well as on the timing and amount of the
ultimate outcomes.


15. COMMITMENTS

Commitments to purchase fixed assets were 151 (1993: 875).

The Acquired Business leases certain property, machinery and office
equipment under operating leases, some of which include varying renewal
and purchase options.  Included in the combined statements of
operations are operating lease expenses totalling 5,824 (1993: 7,635). 
At December 31, 1994, future operating lease commitments with initial
remaining terms of more than one year are 1995: 2,991; 1996: 2,182;
1997: 1,758; 1998: 1,270; 1999: 1,012; after 1999: 15,978.  Included in
these amounts are leases from related parties for the administration
building and hire of real estate with initial remaining terms of more
than one year as follows:  1995-1999:  708 each year; after 1999:

25. FOREIGN EXCHANGE CONTRACTS

The Acquired Business enters into foreign exchange contracts to hedge
foreign currency transactions on a continuing basis for periods
commensurate with its known or expected exposures, primarily related to
machinery sales and purchase of production materials denominated in
foreign currencies.  The purpose of this practice is to minimize the
effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on operating
results.  

At December 31, 1994, the Acquired Business had outstanding foreign
exchange contracts totalling 9,246, which generally mature in periods
of one year or less.  These foreign exchange contracts are legal
agreements between two parties to purchase and sell a foreign currency,
for a price specified at the contract date, with delivery and
settlement in the future.

The Acquired Business does not engage in speculation. Management does
not anticipate any material adverse effect on its financial position
resulting from its involvement in these instruments.

26. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Acquired Business to
significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash
and accounts receivable. The carrying amount of these items are a
reasonable estimate of their fair market value due to their short-term
nature.

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are
generally diversified due to the large number of entities comprising
the customer base of the Acquired Business and their disposition across
many different industries and geographic locations. No single customer
accounted for a significant amount of the sales of the Acquired
Business and there was no significant accounts receivable from a single
customer.



ITEM 7(B)


                         CINCINNATI MILACRON INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                              PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION
                           (In millions, except per share data)
                                        (Unaudited)


On February 1, 1995 (the "Closing Date"), Cincinnati Milacron Inc. (the
"Company") completed the acquisition of 99.92% of the outstanding shares of
Krupp Widia GmbH ("Widia") from Fried. Krupp AG Hoesch-Krupp (the "seller")
for DM 120.8 million (approximately $80 million based on the exchange rate
in effect on the Closing Date), which included DM 7.1 million
(approximately $5 million) for the settlement of all intercompany
liabilities to the seller as of the Closing Date.  The Company financed the
purchase by drawing on its revolving credit facility with its existing bank
group which had been amended in December, 1994, to increase the amount of
borrowings available thereunder from $130.0 million to $200.0 million,
including borrowings denominated in German marks up to an equivalent of
$100.0 million.

Certain of Widia's worldwide operations, including its principal European
plant located in Essen, Germany, were restructured by the seller during
1993 and 1994 to improve manufacturing efficiency, divest marginal business
and product lines and reduce personnel levels.  The Company has identified
additional restructuring actions that are intended to improve Widia's
profitability in the future.  It is expected that these additional actions,
which are intended to complement the actions already taken prior to the
acquisition, will be substantially completed during 1995.  The Company
estimates that the annual savings in relation to Widia's historical 1994
operations that will result from all of these actions will be no less than
$9.0 million (see note (d) to Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of
Earnings).

The following pro forma consolidated balance sheet and statement of
earnings (collectively the "pro forma consolidated statements") are based
on the historical financial statements of the Company and Widia adjusted to
give effect to the acquisition (and, in the case of the pro forma
consolidated statement of earnings, the restructuring) of Widia.  The pro
forma consolidated statement of earnings assumes that the acquisition and
the restructuring of Widia occurred as of the first day of the Company's
1994 fiscal year, and the pro forma consolidated balance sheet assumes that
the acquisition (but not the restructuring) of Widia occurred on the last
day of the Company's 1994 fiscal year.

The pro forma consolidated statements reflect the purchase method of
accounting for the acquisition of Widia using estimated purchase accounting
adjustments which are subject to revision once appraisals, actuarial
reviews and other studies of the fair value of the assets and liabilities
of Widia are completed.  Final purchase accounting adjustments may differ
from the pro forma adjustments presented herein and described in the
accompanying notes.

The pro forma consolidated statements do not purport to present what the
Company's financial position and results of operations would actually have
been had the acquisition and restructuring of Widia occurred on the first
day of the Company's 1994 fiscal year or on the last day of the Company's
1994 fiscal year, as specified above, or purport to project the Company's 
results of operations for any future period.  The pro forma consolidated
statements reflect certain assumptions described in the accompanying notes,
including the Company's expectations of anticipated cost savings from the
restructuring of Widia.  The actual savings may vary from these
expectations.  The pro forma consolidated statements and accompanying notes
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements of the Company and the related notes thereto which are included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended
December 31, 1994, the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K dated February
1, 1995 (both filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission), and the
audited combined financial statements of Widia that are filed herewith as
Item 7(a).

                       NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET
                                       (In millions)



(a) The amounts in the "Historical Widia" column are derived from the
    audited combined statement of net assets of Widia GmbH as of December
    31, 1994, which was prepared based on accounting principles generally
    accepted in the Federal Republic of Germany.  The balance sheet of
    Widia presented herein reflects all material adjustments necessary to
    present Widia's financial position in conformity with accounting
    principles generally accepted in the United States.

(b) The acquisition of Widia was financed as shown in the following table.

(c) The following tables depict the calculation of the Company's purchase
    price and its preliminary allocation to Widia's assets using estimated
    purchase accounting adjustments which are subject to revision once
    appraisals, actuarial reviews and other studies of the fair value of
    the assets and liabilities of Widia are completed.  Final purchase
    accounting adjustments may differ from the amounts shown below.  Under
    the terms of the purchase agreement, the cash purchase price of the
    shares of Widia as of February 1, 1995 was $74.9 million.

(d) During January, 1995, certain intercompany transactions occurred
    between the seller and Widia that were required to be completed prior
    to the Closing Date under the terms of the purchase agreement.  These
    included the sale to the seller by Widia of two buildings and the
    purchase from the seller by Widia of three subsidiaries that it had not
    previously owned.  The effects of these transactions are not included
    in the "Receivables from seller" and "Payables to seller" balances that
    are included in the "Historical Widia" column of the Pro Forma
    Consolidated Balance Sheet.

(e) Under the terms of the purchase agreement, Widia's actual intercompany
    liability to the seller (net of its intercompany receivables from the
    seller) as of the Closing Date of $4.6 million was settled in cash. 
    Such intercompany receivables and payables as of December 31, 1994
    (adjusted to include amounts related to the transactions described in
    note (d), above), were as follows:


       Payables to seller. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .     $ 15.6
       Receivables from seller . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .       (9.8)
                                                                   ------
       Net additional cash to be paid
         as of December 31, 1994 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .     $ (5.8)
                                                                   ======

(f) Purchase accounting adjustments to Widia's historical asset values as
    follows:

    Adjustment of inventory values to reflect the Company's valuation
    methods.

    Adjustment of property, plant and equipment to fair value.

    Recording of goodwill arising from the purchase of Widia by the Company
    of $24.0 million, partially offset by the elimination of historical
    goodwill of $2.6 million.

    Adjustment of the pension liability of one of Widia's subsidiaries by
    $.3 million.

    Recording of reserves for the further restructuring of Widia of $7.1
    million.

    Certain of Widia's worldwide operations, including its principal
    European plant located in Essen, Germany, were restructured by the
    seller during 1993 and 1994 to improve manufacturing efficiency, divest
    marginal business and product lines and reduce personnel levels.  The
    Company has identified additional restructuring actions that are
    intended to improve Widia's profitability in the future.  It is
    expected that these additional actions, which are intended to
    complement the actions already taken prior to the acquisition, will be
    substantially completed during 1995.

                         CINCINNATI MILACRON INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF EARNINGS
                               YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994
                                       (In millions)


(a) The amounts in the "Historical Widia" column are derived from the
    audited combined statement of operations of Widia GmbH for the fiscal
    year ended December 31, 1994, which was prepared based on accounting
    principles generally accepted in the Federal Republic of Germany.  The
    statement of earnings of Widia for the fiscal year ended December 31,
    1994 presented herein reflects all material adjustments necessary to
    present Widia's results of operations for that period in conformity
    with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

    Widia's historical statement of operations for the fiscal year ended
    December 31, 1994, includes nonrecurring charges totaling $6.8 million
    for severance and other costs incurred in connection with the
    restructuring of its operations (see notes (d) and (e) below).  In the
    "Historical Widia" column of the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of
    Earnings, this amount is included in the line captioned "Other - net"
    and it is eliminated in the column captioned "Acquisition Pro Forma
    Adjustments.  Widia's historical statement of operations also includes
    nonrecurring charges for inventory obsolescence and a charge from the
    seller for the write off of its EDP center of $2.2 million and $.9
    million, respectively.  These charges are not eliminated in the
    "Acquisition Pro Forma Adjustments" column and have the effect of
    decreasing consolidated pro forma net earnings by $3.1 million, or $.09
    per share.


(b) Interest expense of $4.8 million on borrowings totaling $80.6 million
    under the Company's $200.0 million committed revolving credit facility
    (see note (c) below).

(c) Amortization expense on straight line basis over one and one half years
    of $.2 million of additional commitment fees incurred in connection
    with the amendment of the Company's committed revolving credit facility
    to increase the lines of credit available thereunder to $200.0 million
    (see note (b) to Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet).

(d) Certain of Widia's worldwide operations, including its principal
    European plant located in Essen, Germany, were restructured by the
    seller during 1993 and 1994 to improve manufacturing efficiency, divest
    marginal business and product lines and reduce personnel levels.  The
    Company has identified additional restructuring actions that are
    intended to improve Widia's profitability in the future.  It is
    expected that these additional actions, which are intended to
    complement the actions already taken prior to the acquisition, will be
    substantially completed during 1995.

    Based on a comprehensive analysis, the Company estimates that the
    minimum annual savings in relation to Widia's historical 1994
    operations that will result from all of the actions described above
    will be no less than $9.0 million.  Accordingly, pro forma adjustments
    of this amount are included in the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of
    Earnings for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994 as follows:

                                                                 Increase
                                                                (Decrease)
                                                                ----------
   Cost of products sold . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .         $ (5.6)
                                                                 ---------
     Manufacturing margins . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .            5.6

   Other costs and expenses. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .     
     Selling and administrative. . . . . . . . . . . . . .           (3.4) 
                                                                ---------
        Total other costs and expenses . . . . . . . . . .           (3.4)
                                                                ---------
   Operating earnings (loss) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .         $  9.0
                                                                =========

    The above amounts are based principally on the savings that will be
    realized from the known reductions of Widia's employment level that
    have already occurred during 1995 and those that will occur later in
    the year.  The actual annual savings from all of the restructuring
    actions completed to date (including those that occurred in 1994) and
    the additional actions that will be completed in the future are
    expected to be considerably higher than $9.0 million.  However, these
    additional savings have not been included in the Pro Forma Consolidated
    Statement of Earnings because the Company cannot accurately and
    precisely quantify them at this time.  In addition, certain
    nonrecurring charges recorded by Widia during 1994 totaling $3.1
    million have not been eliminated in the "Acquisition Pro Forma
    Adjustments" column.  As a result, the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement
    of Earnings" reflects a reduction in net earnings in relation to the
    Company's historical results for 1994.  However, management expects
    that Widia will generate sufficient pretax earnings in 1995 to cover
    the interest expense the Company will incur to finance the acquisition.

(e) Elimination of $6.8 million nonrecurring charges for severance and
    other costs incurred in connection with the restructuring of Widia's
    operations during 1994.

(f) Elimination of depreciation expense and other costs totaling $1.0
    million related to two buildings that were retained by the seller (see
    note (d) to Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet).
