Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
        ------------------------------------

On January 24, 1997 the Company's armored services unit contributed
substantially all of its assets and assigned certain of its liabilities
(including intercompany indebtedness) to Loomis, Fargo & Co. ("Newco") in
exchange for (i) 4,900,000 shares of Newco common stock and (ii) a cash payment
of approximately $105 million, which includes repayment of intercompany
indebtedness. The cash portion of the consideration may be adjusted based on
specified minimum working capital requirements. Among the liabilities of the
armored unit that were not contributed to Newco are casualty and employee claims
incurred prior to the closing.

The Company agreed to indemnify Newco for environmental liabilities associated
with existing underground storage tanks and other known and identified
environmental liabilities. Such indemnification obligation will continue until
the earlier of December 31, 1998 or the first anniversary of an initial public
offering of Newco common stock. The Company has also agreed to indemnify Newco
against liability for breach of its representations and warranties and against
certain claims relating to accounts receivable and taxes.

Newco is a Delaware corporation formed in connection with the business
combination of the Company's armored unit and Loomis Holding Corporation
("Loomis"). As part of the business combination, the shareholders of Loomis
contributed all of the Loomis common stock to Newco in exchange for (i)
5,100,000 shares of Newco common stock, (ii) a non-interest bearing promissory
note in the original principal amount of $6 million and (iii) a cash payment of
approximately $15.2 million made to various business trusts and entities,
including an entity that will administer and pay the casualty and employee
claims of Loomis incurred prior to the closing. Newco also repaid existing
Loomis indebtedness and redeemed outstanding shares of Loomis preferred stock.

The Company and the former Loomis shareholders entered into a stockholders
agreement providing that the Newco board of directors initially will consist of
seven directors: three directors nominated by the Company; three directors
nominated by the former Loomis shareholders and Newco's chief executive officer.
The number of directors that may be designated pursuant to the stockholder
agreement may adjust if either the Company or the former Loomis shareholders
reduce their ownership stake in Newco. The stockholder agreement provides that
the vote of five of the seven directors is required for Newco to engage in
certain specified activities. The Company has nominated Messrs. Adorjan, O'Brien
and Wood, its executive officers, to the Newco board of directors.

The stockholder agreement prohibits the transfer of Newco common stock by either
party for three years following the closing without the prior consent of the
other party. After such period Newco common stock may be transferred only in
accordance with the

                                      -2-

provisions of the stockholder agreement, which include rights of first refusal
and co-sale rights. The current stockholders also have certain preemptive and
registration rights with respect to equity issuances by Newco.

                                  ARTICLE II

            SALE AND TRANSFER OF WELLS FARGO ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
            -------------------------------------------------------

     SECTION 2.1.  Transfer of Assets and Assumption of Liabilities.

          (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, Wells Fargo
agrees to sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Newco at the Closing all
of Wells Fargo's assets, properties and rights of every kind and description,
wherever located, real, personal or mixed, tangible or intangible, owned by
Wells Fargo or otherwise used in its business (including, without limitation,
all of the outstanding capital stock of all Subsidiaries of Wells Fargo) as the
same shall exist on the Closing Date (the "Transferred Assets"), except as
provided in Section 8.18, free and clear of all mortgages, liens, pledges,
security interests, charges, claims, restrictions and encumbrances of any nature
except Permitted Liens; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything else
contained herein, the Transferred Assets shall not include the assets,
properties and rights set forth in Section 2.1(a) of the Disclosure Schedule
(the "Excluded Assets"). At the written direction of Newco, legal title to a
portion of the Transferred Assets (the "Designated Transferred Assets") may be

subsidiary of Newco. The parties hereto agree that any Designated Transferred
Assets are being contributed to the capital of Newco, followed by one or more
capital contributions of

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
such Designated Transferred Assets to the applicable subsidiary of Newco, and
all corporate resolutions and other documents, all accounting records and
reports, and all income Tax Returns shall be consistent therewith.

          (b) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, effective at
the Closing, Newco shall assume all of the liabilities and obligations of Wells
Fargo, known and unknown, whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise, of
every kind and description (the "Assumed Liabilities"); provided, however, that
notwithstanding anything else contained herein, Assumed Liabilities shall not
include (i) any liability for Wells Fargo Excluded Taxes, (ii) any liability for
the WF Casualty and Employee Claims, (iii) except for obligations or liabilities
to be assumed by Newco pursuant to Section 8.21, any obligation or liability
arising from or relating to the WF Employee Benefit Plans, and (iv) the
liabilities set forth in Section 2.1(b) of the Disclosure Schedule as Excluded
Liabilities (clauses (i) through (iv) being collectively referred to herein as
the "Excluded Liabilities"). As used in this Agreement, "WF Casualty and
Employee Claims" means any and all claims, actions, suits or other proceedings
asserted against Wells Fargo or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to events,
circumstances or activities occurring at or prior to the Closing Date (x) for
worker's compensation, (y) arising out of or relating to the use of motor
vehicles or firearms in connection with or related to its business or
operations, or acts or omissions of its drivers, courier guards, security guards
or their supervisors relating to their employment, in each case that is an act
or omission that otherwise is of a type generally covered under typical general
liability insurance policies, or (z) alleging discrimination, wrongful
discharge, sexual harassment or other unlawful hiring or employment practices;

harmless Borg-Warner and Wells Fargo and any of their Affiliates from and
against any Indemnifiable Losses incurred or suffered by Borg-Warner or Wells
Fargo or any such Affiliate with respect to (x) any Assumed Liability and (y)
any obligation of Borg-Warner or Wells Fargo (whether such obligation is created
by contract, law, regulation, or otherwise and whether or not joint and
several), to the extent such obligation arises out of any Assumed Liability
(including any guarantee of any Assumed Liability).

          (d) After the Closing Date, Borg-Warner on behalf of Wells Fargo shall
pay, perform, satisfy or otherwise discharge the Excluded Liabilities and shall
indemnify and hold harmless Newco and its Affiliates from and against any
Indemnifiable Losses incurred or suffered by Newco or any such Affiliate with
respect to any Excluded Liability.

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
          (e) The general procedures set forth in Section 12.5(c) shall be
applied to resolve any disputes arising pursuant to clauses (c) and (d) of this
Section 2.1.

     SECTION 2.2.  Assignment of Contracts and Rights; Associates Lease.

          (a)  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this
Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Transferred Asset if
an attempted assignment thereof, without the consent of a third party thereto,
would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof or in any way adversely
affect the rights of Newco or Wells Fargo or any of their Affiliates thereunder.
Newco and Wells Fargo will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the
consent, if required or necessary, of the other parties to any such Transferred
Asset for the assignment thereof to Newco or its Subsidiaries as Newco may
reasonably request; provided that any costs associated therewith shall be borne
by Newco. If such consent is not obtained, or if an attempted assignment thereof
would be ineffective or would adversely affect the rights of Newco or Wells
Fargo or any of their Affiliates thereunder so that Newco would not in fact
receive all such rights, Wells Fargo will cooperate in a mutually agreeable
arrangement under which Newco shall obtain the benefits and assume the
obligations thereunder in accordance with this Agreement, including
subcontracting, sublicensing, or subleasing to Newco, or under which Wells Fargo
would enforce for the benefit of Newco, with Newco assuming Wells Fargo's
obligations with respect to any and all rights of Wells Fargo or any of its
Affiliates against a third party thereto. Newco shall reimburse Wells Fargo for
all reasonable expenses incurred by Wells Fargo in enforcing any agreement,
claim, right or benefit on behalf of Newco. From and after the Closing, Wells
Fargo will promptly pay to Newco when received all monies or other property
received at or after the Closing by Wells Fargo or any of its Affiliates in
respect of any Transferred Asset, including, without limitation, any payment
received in respect of any WF Accounts Receivable.

          (b) Each of Newco, Wells Fargo and Borg-Warner shall use its best
efforts to secure the consent of the lessor thereunder to the assignment to
Newco of the Associates Lease. If, in connection with such assignment, the
lessor requires the provision or payment of any credit enhancement, additional
lease payments, additional deposit or other incremental costs in addition to
those direct costs currently borne by Wells Fargo pursuant to the terms of such
lease (without giving effect to this transaction or any acceleration of payments
or other penalties that could be incurred as a result of an attempt to assign
the Associates Lease without the consent of the lessor), Newco shall be
responsible for the first $200,000 in the aggregate in such additional
incremental costs and Borg-Warner shall be responsible for any additional
incremental costs over such $200,000 (but only to the extent that such
incremental costs exceed $200,000); provided, that such incremental additional
costs shall be net of the amount of any reduction in the lease or other payments
owed to the lessor under the

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
Associates Lease in effect of the date hereof that is negotiated by the parties
in connection with securing an assignment of the Associates Lease. In connection
with its obligations under the prior sentence, Borg-Warner agrees that it will
provide additional payments or credit enhancement to the lessor under the
Associates Lease to the extent necessary to secure the consent to the assignment
of the Associates Lease.

     SECTION 2.3.  Consideration for Transferred Assets. As consideration for
the Transferred Assets, at the Closing, Newco shall (a) deliver to Wells Fargo
cash in the amount of $106,000,000 plus (x) Transaction Costs incurred by Borg-
Warner, Wells Fargo or its Subsidiaries prior to Closing and (y) the amount of
any cash retained in Wells Puerto Rico pursuant to Section 8.19 minus the amount
of any indebtedness for borrowed money (including any intercompany debt) of
Wells Fargo (as shown on a balance sheet prepared for Wells Fargo on a
consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP) as of the Closing Date that is an
Assumed Liability by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account
designated in writing by Wells Fargo to Newco prior to the Closing Date, (b)
issue and deliver to Wells Fargo 4,900,000 shares of Newco Common Stock and (c)
assume the Assumed Liabilities in accordance with Section 2.1(b) hereof.


                                  ARTICLE III

                           POST-CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS
                           ------------------------

     SECTION 3.1.  Minimum Adjusted Working Capital.

          (a) Within 90 days following the Closing, at the expense of Newco, (i)
Borg-Warner on behalf of Wells Fargo shall cause Deloitte & Touche LLP
("Deloitte") to deliver to each of Newco and the Loomis Stockholders Trust the
balance sheet of Wells Fargo, certified by Deloitte and audited on a
consolidated basis as of the Closing Date (the "WF Closing Balance Sheet") and a
certificate setting forth such auditor's calculation of Adjusted Working Capital
of the Transferred Assets and Assumed Liabilities as determined therefrom and
(ii) the Loomis Stockholders Trust shall cause Ernst & Young LLP ("E&Y") to
deliver to each of Newco and Borg-Warner the balance sheet of Loomis, certified
by E&Y and audited on a consolidated basis as of the Closing Date (the "Loomis
Closing Balance Sheet", and, together with the WF Closing Balance Sheet, the
"Closing Balance Sheets") and a certificate setting forth such auditor's
calculation of Adjusted Working Capital of Loomis as determined therefrom;
provided, however, that at least 10 days prior to the delivery by Deloitte of
the WF Closing Balance Sheet and certificate setting forth the calculation of
Adjusted Working Capital of the Transferred Assets and Assumed Liabilities,
Deloitte shall consult with E&Y with respect to the treatment of vacation
accruals on the WF Closing

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
Balance Sheet and shall make such adjustments with respect to such accruals as
shall be reasonably recommended by E&Y in accordance with GAAP; provided,
further, that to the extent the WF Closing Balance Sheet is required to reflect
an additional amount to be booked for purposes of vacation accruals, the WF Base
Amount shall be reduced by such additional accrual amount. The Closing Balance
Sheets shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP consistent with the accounting
policies and practices for Borg-Warner and Wells Fargo used in connection with
preparation of the WF Financial Statements, on the one hand, and for Loomis used
in connection with preparation of the Loomis Financial Statements, on the other
hand, except as may be required pursuant to this Section 3.1(a). Each of the
Closing Balance Sheets (x) shall be prepared without regard to any effects from
the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby or any financing relating
thereto and (y) shall reflect all proposed audit adjustments determined by
Deloitte or E&Y, as the case may be, to be necessary in order to reflect the
respective Closing Balance Sheets in accordance with GAAP on a basis consistent
with such accounting policies and practices. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an
adjustment shall be made to the Loomis Closing Balance Sheet and the WF Closing
Balance Sheet, as the case may be, if the net amount of passed audit adjustments
in connection with the preparation of such balance sheet is greater than
$1,000,000; provided, however, that the amount of any such adjustment shall be
equal only to the extent of any excess over $1,000,000; provided further that,
for purposes hereof, in the case of the WF Closing Balance Sheet, the net amount
of such passed audit adjustments shall exclude (i) any such adjustment for the
reserve for the collection of doubtful accounts receivable unless such
adjustment for the reserve for collection of doubtful accounts receivable
exceeds $500,000 and then only to the extent of such excess and (ii) except as
recommended by E&Y pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 3.1(a), any
adjustment with respect to vacation accruals.

          (b) If the Adjusted Working Capital of the Transferred Assets and
Assumed Liabilities as set forth in the Deloitte certificate delivered pursuant
to Section 3.1(a)(i) is less than $20,200,000 (the "WF Base Amount"), Borg-
Warner on behalf of Wells Fargo shall promptly pay to Newco an amount equal to
such deficit. If the Adjusted Working Capital of Loomis as set forth in the E&Y
certificate delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii) is less than negative
$3,400,000, the Loomis Indemnity Trust shall promptly pay to Newco an amount
equal to such deficit. Any payment required to be made pursuant to this Article
III shall be payable in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to
an account designated in writing by Newco and shall bear interest from the
Closing Date to but not including the date of such payment at a rate per annum
equal to 5%. Any payment pursuant to this Article III shall be treated for all
purposes as an adjustment to the consideration received by Wells Fargo or by the
Loomis Stockholders Trust in connection with the recipient's original
contribution pursuant to Article I or Article II hereof, as the case may be.

                                       9

          (c) As used in this Agreement, "Adjusted Working Capital" means, as of
the Closing Date prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby, and in each case as derived from the respective Closing Balance Sheets,
(i) in the case of Loomis, an amount equal to current assets (excluding the
deferred taxes associated with the net operating losses of Loomis and its
Subsidiaries) minus cash and cash equivalents (including, without limitation, an
amount equal to amounts held in lock-box accounts for the benefit of Loomis
Armored) minus accounts receivable due from Affiliates (other than employees)
minus current liabilities (net of the current portion of Loomis Closing
Liabilities and current reserve and other liabilities in respect of the Loomis
Casualty and Employee Claims), and (ii) in the case of the Transferred Assets
and Assumed Liabilities, an amount equal to current Transferred Assets minus
accounts receivable due from Affiliates (other than employees) that are included

or any of its Subsidiaries have been duly and timely filed, and all such Tax
Returns are true, correct and complete in all material respects.  None of Loomis

Loomis and its Subsidiaries has withheld and paid all Taxes required by all
applicable laws to be withheld or paid in connection with any amounts paid or

applicable statute of limitations for the assessment of federal income Taxes,

extending the statutory period of limitation applicable to any claim for, or the
period for the collection or assessment of, Taxes due from or with respect to
Loomis or any of its Subsidiaries for any taxable period, and no power of
attorney granted by or with respect to Loomis or any of its Subsidiaries
relating to Taxes is currently in force.  No closing agreement pursuant to
Section 7121 of the Code (or any predecessor provision) or any similar provision
of any state, local, or foreign law has been entered into by or with respect to
Loomis or any of its Subsidiaries.  No audit or other proceeding by any court,
governmental or regulatory authority, or similar person is pending or, to the
knowledge of Loomis, threatened in regard to any Taxes due from or with respect
to Loomis or any of its Subsidiaries or any Tax Return filed by or with respect
to Loomis or any of its Subsidiaries.  No written assessment of Taxes is
proposed against Loomis or any of its Subsidiaries or against any assets of
Loomis or any of its Subsidiaries.  There are no requests for rulings or
determinations by a Tax authority pending with respect to Taxes of Loomis or any
of its Subsidiaries.

          (c) No election under Section 338 of the Code has been made or filed
by or with respect to Loomis or any of its Subsidiaries.  No consent to the
application of Section 341(f)(2) of the Code (or any predecessor provision) has
been made or filed by or

with respect to Loomis or any of its Subsidiaries or against any assets of
Loomis or any of its Subsidiaries.  Neither Loomis nor any of its Subsidiaries
has agreed (and no agreement has been made on any of their behalf) to make any
adjustment pursuant to Section 481(a) of the Code (or any predecessor provision)
by reason of any change in any accounting method, and there is no application

accounting method of Loomis.  None of the assets of Loomis or any of its
Subsidiaries is or will be required to be treated as being owned by any person
(other than Newco) pursuant to the provisions of Section 168(f)(8) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended and in effect immediately before the
enactment of the Tax Reform Act of 1986.

          (d) Neither Loomis nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to, is bound
by, and has any obligation under, any Tax sharing agreement, Tax allocation
agreement or similar contract under which payments may be required to be made to
any person other than Loomis or a Loomis Subsidiary.

          (e) There is no contract, agreement, plan or arrangement covering any
Person that, individually or collectively, could give rise to the payment of any
amount that would not be deductible by Loomis by reason of Section 280G of the
Code.

its Subsidiaries holds all Permits, and the business of each of Loomis and its
Subsidiaries is not being conducted in violation of any provision of any
Federal, state, local or foreign statute, law, ordinance, rule, regulation,

Environmental Laws, or matters relating to Taxes, which are covered elsewhere in
this Agreement.

     SECTION 5.16.  Brokers' Fees and Commissions.  Except as disclosed in
Section 5.16 of the Disclosure Schedule, neither Loomis, any Subsidiary of

                                       47

<PAGE>
 
Subsidiaries' books and records (including Tax Returns and accounting work
papers) and will permit the other to make and will fully cooperate with regard
to such inspections as the other may reasonably require and will cause its
officers to furnish the other such financial and operating data and other

any matter arising in any period ending on or before the Closing Date.

     SECTION 8.3.  All Reasonable Efforts.  Subject to the terms and conditions
herein provided, each of the parties hereto agrees to use all reasonable efforts
to take, or cause to be taken, all action, and to do, or cause to be done as

and authorizations of or any exemptions by, all third parties and governmental
bodies necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
(including, without limitation, all Permits and Environmental Permits required
by Newco to operate the combined businesses of Loomis and Wells Fargo and their
Subsidiaries).  Each party will keep the other party apprised of the status of

transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall not issue any such press
release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation and
agreement, except as may be required by applicable Law or by obligations
pursuant to any listing agreement with any securities exchange or any stock
exchange regulations; provided, however, that any party required to make any
such press release or other public statement will give prior notice to the other

agreement with any securities exchange or any stock exchange regulations.

     SECTION 8.6.  Notice of Certain Events.  Prior to the Closing, (i) Borg-

their Subsidiaries to, solicit, initiate or encourage submission of any proposal
or offer (including by way of furnishing information) from any Person which
constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal.
As used in this Agreement, "Acquisition Proposal" shall mean any proposal for a
merger or other business combination involving any of Wells Fargo or Loomis or
any of their Subsidiaries or any proposal or offer to acquire in any manner a
substantial equity interest in any of Wells Fargo or Loomis or any of their
Subsidiaries or a substantial portion

<PAGE>
 
of the assets of any of Wells Fargo or Loomis or any of their Subsidiaries other
than as contemplated hereby.

          (b) In the event that the Wells Fargo Parties, on the one hand, or the
Loomis Parties, on the other hand, receive an Acquisition Proposal from any
Person and thereafter consummate a merger, business combination or other similar
transaction with such Person or an Affiliate of such Person arising out of such
Acquisition Proposal (a "Competing Transaction"), then Borg-Warner, in the case
of the Wells Fargo Parties consummating such Competing Transaction, or Loomis
Armored, in the case of the Loomis Parties consummating such Competing
Transaction, shall be obligated to pay the other party liquidated damages in the
amount of $4,000,000, plus all reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred

     SECTION 8.10.  The Financing.  Each of Loomis, Borg-Warner and Wells Fargo
agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to secure the Financing prior to
the Closing, including by making available, subject to reasonable
confidentiality provisions, its books and records and such officers of such
entity as may be reasonably necessary for prospective lenders and their agents
to complete customary due diligence.  The "Financing" shall consist of a senior
subordinated notes offering and a  step-down revolving credit facility providing
aggregate proceeds or borrowing capacity to Newco of at least $185,000,000.

     SECTION 8.11.  Wells Fargo Corporate Existence.  From and after the Closing
for a period of two years after the Closing Date, Wells Fargo shall, and Borg-
Warner shall cause Wells Fargo to, do or cause to be done all things necessary
to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence, and,
without the prior written consent of the Loomis Stockholders Trust, Wells Fargo
shall not, and Borg-Warner shall not cause Wells Fargo to, merge or consolidate
with any Person or dissolve or adopt a plan of liquidation.  From and after the
Closing, for a period of two years after the Closing Date, without the prior
written consent of the Loomis Stockholders Trust, Wells Fargo shall not, and
Borg-Warner shall not

                                       50

<PAGE>
 
cause Wells Fargo to, sell, convey, assign or otherwise transfer the shares of
Newco Common Stock received by Wells Fargo at the Closing pursuant to this
Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Borg-Warner or
Wells Fargo from pledging such shares to secure indebtedness for borrowed money
of Borg-Warner or Wells Fargo.

     SECTION 8.12.  Cancellation of MEGA Units.  At or prior to the Closing,
Loomis shall terminate the Loomis Management Equity Growth and Appreciation Plan
(the "MEGA Plan") and cause the units granted pursuant thereto to be cancelled,
and the holders thereof shall in lieu of such units receive options to purchase
a number of shares of Newco Common Stock that is equivalent in value pursuant to
a Newco MEGA Units Holder Plan reasonably satisfactory to the parties hereto to
be established by Newco (the "New MEGA Plan").  Such options shall be subject to
the same vesting schedule and other limitations on exercise and transfer as
presently exist with respect to the units outstanding under the MEGA Plan.  Upon
exercise of any option issued pursuant to the New MEGA Plan, the Loomis
Stockholders Trust shall deliver one share of Newco Common Stock to Newco for
each share of Newco Common Stock to be issued by Newco with respect to such
exercise and Newco shall deliver to the Loomis Stockholders Trust the exercise
price paid by such option holder with respect to such exercise, in each case in
accordance with a Stock Contribution Agreement by and between the Loomis
Stockholders Trust and Newco in form and substance that is reasonably
satisfactory to the parties hereto.

     SECTION 8.13.  Tax Reporting.

          (a) Within 90 days after the Closing Date, Borg-Warner on behalf of
Wells Fargo shall prepare or caused to be prepared and delivered to each of
Newco and the Loomis Stockholders Trust a schedule setting forth in detail the
basis of the Transferred Assets, its proposed computation of gain and loss to be
recognized with respect to the Transferred Assets upon the transfer of the
Transferred Assets to Newco, its estimation of the fair market value and useful
lives of those Transferred Assets (the "Amortizable Intangibles") that are
eligible for amortization or depreciation deductions under the applicable
federal income Tax law in effect prior to the effective date of Section 197 of
the Code, and its proposal with respect to Newco's Tax basis in the Transferred
Assets (the "Basis Schedule").  In the event that the Loomis Stockholders Trust
delivers written notice to Borg-Warner to the effect that a majority of the
unitholders of the Loomis Stockholders Trust disagrees with all or any portion
of the Basis Schedule or with Wells Fargo's determinations as to the existence
or basis of Amortizable Intangibles, Wells Fargo and a representative appointed
by a majority of the unitholders of the Loomis Stockholders Trust shall
negotiate in good faith in order to resolve any such disagreements regarding the
Basis Schedule or Amortizable Intangibles.  In the event that Wells Fargo and
the representative of the Loomis Stockholders Trust are unable to reach
agreement regarding the Basis Schedule or certain aspects of Wells Fargo's

                                       51

<PAGE>
 
determinations relating to the Amortizable Intangibles within thirty days of the
receipt thereof by the Loomis Stockholders Trust, such disagreement shall be
submitted for resolution to the CPA Firm, and such resolution shall be binding
among the parties hereto.  All of the costs and expenses of the parties incurred
in connection with this Section 8.13 (including, without limitation, reasonable
accountants' and appraisers' fees) shall be borne by Newco.

          (b) Unless there has been a Final Determination to the contrary, the
parties covenant and agree for all Tax purposes, including the filing of Tax
Returns and in any audit, administrative or judicial proceeding relating to
Taxes, to (and to cause any Affiliate or successor to) take each of the
positions set forth below and not to take any positions or agree to any
settlements inconsistent therewith:

               (i) the transfer of the Transferred Assets by Wells Fargo to
Newco and the transfer of the Loomis Common Stock by the Loomis Stockholders
Trust together constitute an exchange qualifying under Section 351 of the Code;

               (ii) the transfer of the Transferred Assets by Newco to Loomis
constitutes an exchange qualifying under Section 351 of the Code;

               (iii) Wells Fargo will recognize gain or loss with respect to
each of the Transferred Assets in a manner which is consistent with the Basis
Schedule, as finally determined hereunder;

               (iv) the Tax basis of each of the Transferred Assets is as set
forth in the Basis Schedule, as finally determined hereunder; and

               (v) the holding period of each Transferred Asset will include the
period during which such asset was held by Wells Fargo.

          (c) Each of the parties hereto agrees to furnish or cause to be
furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such
information and assistance relating to the Transferred Assets and the business
as is reasonably necessary for the filing of all Tax Returns, the making of any
election relating to Taxes, the preparation for any audit by any Tax Authority,
and the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding relating to any
Tax Return.  The parties will cooperate with each other in the conduct of any
audit or other proceeding relating to the Transferred Assets or to the business,

Wells Fargo after the Closing in respect of such claim, such proceeds shall be

     SECTION 8.17.  Transition Services.  At the Closing, Newco and Borg-Warner
will enter into a "Transition Services Agreement" pursuant to which Borg-Warner,
through its Subsidiaries, shall provide to Newco (a) those services currently
provided to Wells Fargo pursuant to the licensing and other agreements listed in
Section 8.17 of the Disclosure Schedule and (b) assistance in the administration
of the Wells Fargo medical insurance plans in respect of Assumed Liabilities
arising thereunder ("Administrative Assistance").  The Transition Services
Agreement shall contain mutually acceptable terms and conditions customary to
such agreements and shall provide that:

               (i) Borg-Warner shall cause such services to be provided to Newco
for a period not to exceed 150 days;

               (ii) Newco shall pay to Borg-Warner or its Subsidiaries a fee
equal to (A) the percentage of the costs and expenses currently allocated to
Wells Fargo in respect of such services multiplied by (B) the costs and expenses
of such services, in each case, consistent with past practices; provided that
the fee paid by Newco for Administrative Assistance shall be equal to the actual
cost to Borg-Warner, through its Subsidiaries, of administering the applicable
plans;

               (iii) In addition to the fee referred to in clause (ii), Newco
shall be responsible for all incremental third party costs or charges, if any,
incurred for services rendered directly or indirectly to it pursuant to the

                                       54
<PAGE>
 
               (iv) upon 30 days prior written notice to Borg-Warner, Newco may
terminate the Transition Services Agreement prior to the last date on which 
Borg-Warner is required to provide such services to Newco thereunder and, upon
such termination, Newco shall not be responsible for any fees, costs, expenses
or charges with respect to such services or pursuant to the agreements set forth
in Section 8.17 of the Disclosure Schedule other than such fees, costs, expenses
and charges payable in respect of such services by Newco for the period prior to
such termination.

     SECTION 8.18.  Accounts Receivable.  At the Closing, before giving effect
to the transactions contemplated hereby, Wells Fargo will deliver to Newco all
of the accounts receivable set forth on the WF Closing Balance Sheet free and
clear of any Liens.

     SECTION 8.19.  Wells Fargo Armored Service Corporation of Puerto Rico.  The
parties hereby agree that the amount of cash held as an asset by Wells Fargo
Armored Service Corporation of Puerto Rico, a Tennessee corporation that is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo ("Wells Puerto Rico"), immediately prior
to Closing and not retained as an Excluded Asset will be not more than $900,000
nor less than $200,000 and that Wells Fargo shall be reimbursed at Closing for
such amount pursuant to Section 2.3.

     SECTION 8.20.  Loomis Casualty Insurance Deposits.  Newco agrees that any
Loomis Casualty Insurance Deposits shall be for the benefit of the Loomis
Casualty and Employee Claims Trust and that Newco will not act to reduce such
deposit in any way.  From and after the Closing, upon the earlier of termination
of the casualty insurance policy or policies in effect in respect of the Loomis
Casualty and Employee Claims or the satisfaction and discharge of all Loomis
Casualty and Employee Claims, Loomis shall promptly pay to the Loomis Casualty
and Employee Claims Trust an amount equal to all Loomis Casualty Insurance
Deposits maintained with respect to such policy.

     SECTION 8.21.  Employees and Employee Benefits.

          (a) Except for certain headquarters employees of Wells Fargo set forth
on a list to be provided by Newco to Wells Fargo at least five days prior to the
Closing Date, Newco shall offer employment as of the Closing Date on an "at
will" basis to substantially all employees of Wells Fargo and its Subsidiaries
who are actively employed on such date ("Active Employees").  Each such offer of
employment (i) to each non-bargaining unit employee shall be on terms and
conditions to be determined by Newco in its sole discretion and (ii) to each
bargaining unit employee shall be at least the same wage rate and with
substantially comparable benefits, other than participation in a tax-qualified
defined benefit plan, in the aggregate (based on the prior year's cost), as in
effect for such employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, and other terms
and conditions to be determined by

                                       55
<PAGE>
 
Newco in its sole discretion.  All Active Employees who accept Newco's offer of
employment by the Closing Date shall be deemed "Transferred Employees."  Newco
shall also offer employment to employees of Wells Fargo or any of its
Subsidiaries who are not actively employed on the Closing Date and have a right
to re-employment with Wells Fargo or any of its Subsidiaries, on terms and
conditions to be determined by Newco in its sole discretion; provided, however,
that any such employee shall be offered employment by Newco only if he or she is
fully able to return to active employment in accordance with Newco's employment
policies within six (6) months after the Closing Date.

          (b) With respect to each Transferred Employee, service with Wells
Fargo or any of its Affiliates shall be counted for purposes of determining any
period of eligibility to participate or to vest in benefits under Newco's
benefit plans to the same extent such service was counted under any similar type
of WF Benefit Plan under which such Transferred Employee was covered immediately
prior to the Closing Date, except that such service with Wells Fargo shall not
be counted for purposes of Newco's severance policies to the extent that
Transferred Employees have received severance benefits for such service.  Newco,
for purposes of deductible limits under its welfare plans, shall credit each
Transferred Employee with the amounts so credited with respect to the portion of
the calendar year preceding the Closing Date under the same type of WF Benefit
Plan in which such Transferred Employee is participating as of the Closing Date.
With respect to each Transferred Employee, Newco's group health plans shall not
exclude coverage for pre-existing conditions that were not excluded under
similar WF Benefit Plans in which such Transferred Employee is participating as
of the Closing Date.

          (c)  Newco agrees that, within ten business days after the date
hereof, it will advise each union with which Wells Fargo has a collective
bargaining agreement that it does not intend to assume such collective
bargaining agreement in connection with the transactions set forth herein.
Newco also agrees that it will bargain in good faith with representatives of
each such union regarding the employment terms and conditions of each bargaining
unit employee.

          (d) As of the Closing Date, Newco shall assume the obligations and
liabilities under the Wells Fargo Non-Officers Severance Compensation and
Benefits Policy, as amended and restated as of October 29, 1996, and Senior
Officer Severance Compensation and Benefits Policy, as adopted effective October
29, 1996, and Newco or its designee shall replace Wells Fargo and its management
as the plan administrator under both policies.  At a time (but in any event
prior to the Closing Date) and in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Newco,
Wells Fargo shall communicate and make available to its officers and home office
employees the terms of its severance policies described above and shall clearly
indicate that the terms of such severance policies shall govern any terminations
of employment on account

                                       56

<PAGE>
 
of the transactions contemplated hereby and supersede any prior communications
with respect thereto.

          (e) Newco shall assume the liability as of the Closing Date for the
accrued and unpaid vacation and sick days with respect to the employees of Wells
Fargo or any of its Subsidiaries.

          (f) Newco shall promptly reimburse Wells Fargo for the liability of
Wells Fargo and its Subsidiaries for claims incurred and unpaid prior to the
Closing Date under the WF Employee Benefit Plans which constitute welfare
benefit plans (including the related portion of any retrospective insurance
premiums, but excluding any WF Casualty and Employee Claims) to the extent such
liability (i) is not covered under a non-experience-rated insurance contract and
(ii) exceeds the amount of the related portion of any retention or reserves
(including but not limited to amounts held in a voluntary employee beneficiary
association or under an experience-rated insurance contract, and intercompany
contributions and insurance premiums paid in excess of claims paid).  As of the
end of the plan year following the Closing Date, Wells Fargo shall pay to Newco
the excess portion of any retention or reserves under the WF Employee Benefit
Plans which constitute welfare benefit plans to the extent allocable to Wells
Fargo and its Subsidiaries.

          (g) As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, the account
balances as of the Closing Date of the Transferred Employees held in the Borg-
Warner Security Corporation Investment Plan (the "401(k) Plan"), as equitably
adjusted for earnings thereon, additional contributions thereto with respect to
the period prior to the Closing Date and distributions therefrom through the
date of transfer, shall be transferred to a tax-qualified defined contribution
plan sponsored, maintained or contributed to by Newco ("Newco Plan").  Such
transfer shall be effected in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Newco shall make or cause to be made, and Borg-Warner or Wells Fargo, as the
case may be, shall make or cause to be made, any required filings in connection
therewith.  Newco and Borg-Warner may each require, as a condition to the making
of any such transfer, evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the qualified
status of the 401(k) Plan and Newco Plan, including, without limitation, a copy
of a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service.  In
consideration of and effective upon such transfer, the Newco Plan shall assume
all liabilities to Transferred Employees under the 401(k) Plan to the extent of
the amount of assets transferred by the 401(k) Plan to the Newco Plan.  Each of
the parties shall pay its own expenses in connection with such transfer.  Newco
shall not assume any other obligations or liabilities arising under or
attributable to the 401(k) Plan, the same to be retained or assumed by Borg-
Warner.

                                       57
<PAGE>
 
          (h) Wells Fargo and Borg-Warner, on one hand, and Newco, on the other
hand, shall each promptly and reasonably cooperate in good faith with each other
to ensure that their respective obligations with respect to employee benefit
plans are timely and properly satisfied, including sharing information regarding
employees and coordinating communications with employees.

     SECTION 8.22.  Termination of Management Agreements.  The parties hereby
agree that, effective as of the Closing, all management or other advisory
agreements between (a) Wingate and any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and
Loomis and/or Loomis Armored, on the other, and (b) Borg Warner and any of its
Affiliates, on the one hand, and Wells Fargo or any of its Subsidiaries, on the
other, in each case, shall be terminated with no further obligation of any party
thereunder other than the payment of any fees or expenses owing as of the
Closing Date.

     SECTION 8.23.  Use of Name.  Wells Fargo and Borg-Warner agree that they
will use their best efforts to secure by December 13, 1996 the consent of Wells
Fargo & Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (together, "Wells
Fargo Bank"), to the use by Newco of the word "Fargo" in its name by means of a
perpetual, royalty-free license containing covenants and restrictions that are
customary for similar licenses or, in the alternative, an acknowledgement in
writing from Wells Fargo Bank that such use of the name "Fargo" does not
infringe on any intellectual property rights of Wells Fargo Bank.

     SECTION 8.24.  Consents of Equity Holders.  Loomis agrees that it will use
its best efforts to secure the consent of the Loomis Other Equity Holders to
convert or exchange their Loomis Other Equity Interests for shares of Loomis
Common Stock and contribute such shares of Loomis Common Stock to the Loomis
Stockholders Trust prior to Closing, all pursuant to the terms of the Waiver and
Termination of Purchase Agreement and Exercise Agreement, the Waiver, Exercise,
and Termination of Warrant Agreement, the Contingent Contribution Agreement and
the Optionholder Acknowledgement Agreement (collectively, the "Contingent
Exercise Agreements") in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit D, as applicable.
Loomis agrees that it will not modify the forms of Contingent Exercise
Agreements or amend, terminate or modify any such Contingent Exercise Agreements
after the execution and delivery thereof by a Loomis Other Equity Holder, in
each case, without the prior written consent of Wells Fargo.  Further, the
Loomis Stockholders Trust agrees that it will use its best efforts to secure the
agreement of each of the holders of rights under the MEGA Plan to exchange such
rights for options issued pursuant to the New MEGA Plan, without any further
liability or obligation on the part of Loomis.

                                       58
<PAGE>
 
     SECTION 8.25.  Contribution to Reserve.  On the Closing Date, the reserve
in respect of doubtful accounts reflected in the financial statements of Wells
Fargo shall be at least $2 million.

     SECTION 8.26.  Support Payment.  In the event that any participant in the
MEGA Plan declines to exchange such participant's rights therein for options for
Newco Common Stock issued pursuant to the New MEGA Plan, and, thereafter, such
participant becomes entitled to any payment as a result of participation in the
MEGA Plan, the Loomis Stockholders Trust shall promptly pay to such participant
the amount of any such payment to which such participant would otherwise be
entitled from Loomis and will indemnify and hold Newco harmless from any and all
claims, damages or losses in respect of such nonexchanged MEGA Plan units.

     Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing
     to occur on or before such date.

     SECTION 11.2.  Procedure and Effect of Termination.  In the event of
termination pursuant to Section 11.1, written notice thereof shall forthwith be
given to the other parties to this Agreement and this Agreement shall terminate
without further action by any of the parties hereto.  If this Agreement is
terminated as provided herein:

          (a) upon request therefor, each party will redeliver all documents,
work papers and other material of any other party relating to the transactions
contemplated hereby, whether obtained before or after the execution hereof, to
the party furnishing the same; and

          (b) no party hereto shall have any liability or further obligation to
any other party to this Agreement resulting from such termination except (i)
that the provisions of Sections 8.5 and 8.7(b) (but, in the case of Section
8.7(b), only if there has been a breach of Section 8.7(a) prior to such
termination) and this Section 11.2 shall remain in full force and effect and
(ii) no party waives any claim or right against a breaching party to the extent
that such termination results from (x) a knowing material breach by a party
hereto of any of its covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement or (y)
a knowing material breach by a party hereto of any representation or warranty
set forth in this Agreement, but only if such breach shall have occurred or was
otherwise existing as of the date of this Agreement.

                                INDEMNIFICATION
                                ---------------

     SECTION 12.1.  Environmental Indemnification.

          (a) From and after the Closing until the date set forth in clause (d)
below,

                                       64
<PAGE>
 
               (i) Borg-Warner shall indemnify, pay, reimburse, defend and
     otherwise hold harmless Newco and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the
     "Newco Parties") from and against any and all reasonable costs and expenses
     incurred by Newco to (x) remove or upgrade any USTs on the Wells Fargo
     Sites as necessary to bring such USTs into compliance, by December 31,
     1998, with the UST Rules, (y) investigate, monitor, remediate or otherwise
     clean up any Hazardous Materials Released on or prior to the Closing or in
     conjunction with actions required pursuant to clause (x) immediately above,
     in each case, from any USTs on the Wells Fargo Sites with respect to which
     UST Closure has not been obtained prior to Closing, and (z) investigate,
     monitor, remediate or otherwise address any Known Environmental Condition
     existing as of the date of this Agreement and set forth in Section 4.20(a)
     of the Disclosure Schedule; and

               (ii) the Loomis Stockholders Trust shall indemnify, pay,
     reimburse, defend and otherwise hold harmless the Newco Parties from and
     against any and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Newco to (x)
     remove or upgrade any USTs on the Loomis Sites as necessary to bring such
     USTs into compliance, by December 31, 1998, with the UST Rules, (y)
     investigate, monitor, remediate or otherwise clean up any Hazardous
     Materials Released on or prior to the Closing or in conjunction with
     actions required by clause (x) immediately above, in each case, from any
     USTs on the Loomis Sites with respect to which UST Closure has not been
     obtained prior to the Closing, and (z) investigate, monitor, remediate or
     otherwise address any Known Environmental Condition existing as of the date
     of this Agreement and disclosed in Section 5.22(a) of the Disclosure
     Schedule.

          (b) Any removal, upgrade, investigation, monitoring, remedial or other
actions undertaken pursuant to Section 12.1(a)(i)(x) or Section 12.1(a)(ii)(x)
shall be performed in a reasonable and cost-effective manner, taking into
account the current use of the site, and shall be limited to those actions
necessary to comply with the UST Rules and, if applicable, to receive UST
Closure and, with respect to any remedial, monitoring, investigation or clean-up
activities undertaken pursuant to Section 12.1(a)(i)(y) or (z) or Section
12.1(a)(ii)(y) or (z), shall be limited to those activities required by
applicable regulatory authorities to comply with Environmental Laws and shall be
performed in a reasonable and cost-effective manner, taking into account the
current use of the site.  In the event Newco shall cause the removal of any UST
that could otherwise be upgraded pursuant to Section 12.1(a) in a reasonable and
cost-effective manner, Borg-Warner or the Loomis Stockholders Trust, as the case
may be, shall only be liable for that amount which would have been necessary (as
provided in the prior sentence) to upgrade such UST (including, if necessary,
for any remedial actions which would have been necessary in connection with such
upgrade).

                                       65
<PAGE>
 
          (c) Newco agrees to (i) use reasonable efforts to perform any
investigatory, remedial or other actions in a manner which will permit Newco to
recover the maximum available funds under any applicable state UST funds and any
applicable insurance policies, (ii) apply for any reimbursements or payments
from such funds or policies on a timely basis and (iii) promptly reimburse Wells
Fargo or the Loomis Stockholders Trust, as applicable, for any amounts received
from such funds or policies.

          (d) The respective obligations of Borg-Warner and the Loomis
Stockholders Trust pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section 12.1(a) shall
survive until the earlier to occur of (i) December 31, 1998 and (ii) the first
anniversary of the initial public offering of Newco Common Stock.  Thereafter,
except as set forth in the next sentence, each of Newco, Wells Fargo and the
Loomis Stockholders Trust hereby waives any contribution or similar rights any
may have against the others, whether in law or in equity, with respect to
environmental matters covered by this Agreement.  To the extent there are
remedial activities in process as of the date the indemnification obligation
terminates pursuant to this clause (d), Newco shall provide Borg-Warner or the
Loomis Stockholders Trust, as applicable, with a written estimate describing in
reasonable detail the remaining costs and expenses expected to be incurred by
Newco which would otherwise have been covered by this Section 12.1.  Such costs
and expenses may be satisfied in cash (subject to a present value discount rate
equal to 8%) or pursuant to an irrevocable letter of credit issued in the full
amount of such costs and expenses; provided, however, that prior to the issuance
of any such letter of credit, Borg-Warner and the Loomis Stockholders Trust
shall agree upon the period of time in which such pending remedial activities
are reasonably expected to be completed and such letter of credit shall be
maintained without interruption until the expiration of such period.  Except as
otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, the procedure for payment of such
estimated amounts, or objections thereto, shall be addressed as set forth in
clause (e) below.

          (e) As costs and expenses are incurred by Newco from time to time
after the Closing pursuant to this Section 12.1, Newco shall provide Borg-Warner
or the Loomis Stockholders Trust, as applicable, with a written statement
describing in reasonable detail such costs and expenses incurred or estimated in
good faith to be incurred by Newco.  In the event that Borg-Warner or the Loomis
Stockholders Trust, as applicable, has no objections to such statement, such
party shall pay Newco the amount set forth in such statement within 60 days of
receipt of such statement.  In the event that Borg-Warner or the Loomis
Stockholders Trust, as applicable, objects to any such costs and expenses set
forth in any statement, such party shall, within 30 days of receipt of such
statement, submit to Newco a written notice of objection thereto stating in
reasonable detail the reason for such objection.  In the event that such party
and Newco cannot come to a mutual agreement regarding the costs and expenses
objected to by such party within 30 days after the receipt by Newco of written
notice

                                       66

<PAGE>
 
objecting to such costs and expenses, the matter shall be settled exclusively by
arbitration in the manner set forth in Section 12.5(c) hereof.  Any amounts due
to Newco as a result of such arbitration shall be paid promptly following the
conclusion of such arbitration.

     SECTION 12.2.  Accounts Receivable Indemnification.  From and after the
Closing, Borg-Warner shall indemnify, pay, reimburse, defend and otherwise hold
harmless the Loomis Stockholders Trust from and against any Accounts Receivable
Reserve Excess; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, in no event will Borg-Warner be liable hereunder for
any amount of Accounts Receivable Reserve Excess greater than $500,000 in the
aggregate.  As used in this Agreement, "Accounts Receivable Reserve Excess"
means the amount in excess of $2,000,000, if any, of gross accounts receivable
of Wells Fargo reflected on the WF Final Balance Sheet ("WF Accounts
Receivable") that are not collected within 180 days after the Closing Date,
minus any amounts previously paid by Borg-Warner to the Loomis Stockholders
Trust for Accounts Receivable Reserve Excess pursuant to this Section 12.2.
Newco hereby agrees to pursue the collection of the WF Accounts Receivable in
the same manner and at the same level of diligence as Newco shall pursue the
collection of its other similar accounts receivable.  Not later than 195 days
after the Closing Date, Newco shall give notice, certified by the Chief
Financial Officer of Newco (the "Receivables Notice"), to Borg-Warner and the
Loomis Stockholders Trust setting forth the collection of WF Accounts Receivable
through such 180th day and the amount, if any, of any Accounts Receivable
Reserve Excess, together with a written description in reasonable detail of the
calculation thereof.  Following the date of such Receivables Notice, Borg-Warner
shall have 30 days within which to (i) pay the amount of any Accounts Receivable
Reserve Excess set forth in the Receivables Notice to the Loomis Stockholders
Trust or (ii) provide Newco and the Loomis Stockholders Trust written objection
(the "Receivables Objection") to the calculation of the amount of Accounts
Receivable Reserve Excess, if any.  The Loomis Stockholders Trust shall then
have 30 days to review and respond in writing to the Receivables Objection.  If
Borg-Warner and the Loomis Stockholders Trust are unable to resolve any
disagreements with respect to the determination of the Accounts Receivable
Reserve Excess within 30 days following the Loomis Stockholders Trust's response
to the Receivables Objection, Borg-Warner may refer their remaining differences
to the CPA Firm, which shall, acting as arbitrators, determine, only with
respect to the remaining differences so submitted, whether and to what extent
the Accounts Receivable Reserve Excess set forth in the Receivables Notice
requires adjustment.  The CPA Firm's determination shall be delivered in writing
to Borg-Warner and the Loomis Stockholders Trust and shall be conclusive and
binding upon Borg-Warner and the Loomis Stockholders Trust.  In the event that
the CPA Firm determines that any amount is due and owing to the Loomis
Stockholders Trust pursuant to this Section 12.2, or Borg-Warner and the
representative for the Loomis Stockholders Trust agree as to any amount due and
owing pursuant hereto, such amount shall be paid promptly to the Loomis
Stockholders Trust by

                                       67

<PAGE>
 
wire transfer to an account designated by the Loomis Stockholders Trust.  The
fees and disbursements of the CPA Firm shall be paid (x) by Borg-Warner if the
difference between Borg-Warner's calculation of the Accounts Receivable Reserve
Excess and the CPA Firm's calculation thereof is greater than the difference
between the Loomis Stockholders Trust's calculation of the Accounts Receivables
Reserve Excess and the CPA Firm's calculation thereof and (y) by the Loomis
Stockholders Trust if the difference between the Loomis Stockholders Trust's
calculation of the Accounts Receivable Reserve Excess and the CPA Firm's
calculation thereof is greater than the difference between Borg-Warner's
calculation of the Accounts Receivable Reserve Excess and the CPA Firm's
calculation.  Borg-Warner and Newco shall make readily available to the CPA Firm
all relevant books and records and any work papers relating to the Accounts
Receivable Reserve Excess calculation and all other items reasonably requested
by the CPA Firm and shall, at the request of the CPA Firm, request that Deloitte
make available its work papers as permitted under relevant professional
standards.

     SECTION 12.3.  General Indemnification.

          (a) After the Closing, subject to Sections 12.6(a) and 13.12 hereof,
Borg-Warner and Wells Fargo, jointly and severally, will indemnify, defend and
hold harmless the Newco Parties from and against any and all Indemnifiable
Losses to the extent relating to, resulting from or arising out of any breach by
Borg-Warner or Wells Fargo of any of their respective representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements contained in Article IV (except for Section
4.20, which indemnity shall be governed exclusively by Section 12.1 hereof;
Section 4.13, which indemnity shall be governed exclusively by Section 12.4; and
any breach of a representation or warranty by Borg-Warner or Wells Fargo
relating to WF Accounts Receivable, which indemnity shall be governed
exclusively by Section 12.2) and Article VIII hereof.

          (b) After the Closing, subject to Sections 12.6(b) and 13.12 hereof,
the Loomis Stockholders Trust will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Newco
Parties from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses to the extent relating
to, resulting from or arising out of any breach by Loomis, Loomis Armored, or
the Loomis Stockholders Trust of any of their respective representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements contained in Articles V (except for Section
5.22, which indemnity shall be governed exclusively by Section 12.1 hereof; and
Section 5.14, which indemnity shall be governed exclusively by Section 12.4),
Article VI and Article VIII hereof.

                                       68

     SECTION 12.4.  Tax Indemnification.

          (a) Subject to Section 12.4(c), after the Closing, Borg-Warner and
Wells Fargo, jointly and severally, will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
Newco Parties from and against any and all Wells Fargo Indemnifiable Taxes and
the Indemnifiable Losses relating to, resulting from or arising out of such
Wells Fargo Indemnifiable Taxes and any and all Indemnifiable Losses to the
extent relating to, resulting from or arising out of any breach by Borg-Warner
or Wells Fargo of the representations and warranties set forth in Section
4.13(b); provided that neither Borg-Warner nor Wells Fargo shall have any
obligation to make any payment to any of the Newco Parties pursuant to this
Section 12.4(a) unless and until the aggregate amount of all claims arising
pursuant hereto exceeds $250,000 and then only for the amount of such excess.

          (b) Subject to Section 12.4(c), after the Closing, the Loomis
Stockholders Trust will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Newco Parties
from and against any and all Loomis Excluded Taxes and the Indemnifiable Losses
relating to, resulting from or arising out of such Loomis Excluded Taxes and any
and all Indemnifiable Losses to the extent relating to, resulting from or
arising out of any breach by Loomis or Loomis Armored of the representations and
warranties set forth in Section 5.14(d); provided that the Loomis Stockholders
Trust shall have no obligation to make any payment to any of the Newco Parties
pursuant to this Section 12.4(b) unless and until the aggregate amount of all
claims arising pursuant hereto exceeds $250,000 and then only for the amount of
such excess.

          (c) The indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 12.4
shall survive until the earlier of the second anniversary of the Closing Date
and the consummation of the initial public offering of Newco Common Stock;
provided, however, that any claim asserted by the relevant taxing authority
prior to such time shall survive until paid or until there is a Final
Determination that no portion of such claim is owed to such taxing authority.
In the event that Borg-Warner or the Loomis Stockholders Trust, as applicable,
objects to the calculation of any such indemnification obligations, such party
shall, within 30 days of receipt of such claim, submit to Newco a written notice
of objection thereto stating in reasonable detail the reason for such objection.
In the event that the such party and Newco cannot come to a mutual agreement
regarding the claim objected to by such party within 30 days after the receipt
by Newco of written notice objecting to such claim, the matter shall be settled
exclusively by arbitration in the manner set forth in Section 12.5(c) hereof.
Any amounts due to Newco as a result of such arbitration shall be paid promptly
following the conclusion of such arbitration.

                                       69

     SECTION 12.5.  Defense and Payment of Claims.

          (a) If Newco receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any
Third Party Claim which is subject to indemnification under this Agreement,
Newco will give Borg-Warner and the Loomis Stockholders Trust reasonably prompt
written notice thereof.  Such notice will (i) describe the Third Party Claim in
reasonable detail, (ii) include copies of all material written evidence thereof
and (iii) indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the cost,
expense, loss or diminution in value that has been or may be sustained by Newco
as a result of such Third Party Claim.  The indemnifying party shall have the
right to participate in, or, by giving written notice to Newco, to assume and
control the defense of any Third Party Claim at such indemnifying party's own
expense and by such indemnifying party's own counsel (reasonably satisfactory to
Newco), and Newco will, and, to the extent that such Third Party Claim relates
to acts or omissions of Wells Fargo prior to the Closing, Borg-Warner and Wells
Fargo will, cooperate in good faith in such defense.  If an indemnifying party
shall not assume the defense of a Third Party Claim or shall not diligently
defend a Third Party Claim so assumed by such indemnifying party, Newco shall
defend such Third Party Claims and may settle such claims at the discretion of
the Board of Directors of Newco.  The indemnifying party shall not be liable for
any settlement of any Third Party Claim effected without its consent, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Within thirty days after the receipt of
notice from Newco of such settlement or a judgment in respect of such claim
which is final and nonappealable or as to which a decision by Newco and the
indemnifying party has been made not to undertake any further appeal, the
indemnifying party shall deliver cash payment to Newco in the amount of such
Indemnifiable Loss.

          (b) Newco will give Borg-Warner and the Loomis Stockholders Trust
reasonably prompt notice of the incurrence of any Indemnifiable Loss which does
not result from a Third Party Claim (a "Direct Claim").  Any such notice will
(i) describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, (ii) include copies of all
material written evidence thereof and (iii) indicate the estimated amount, if
reasonably practicable, of the Indemnifiable Loss that has been or may be
sustained by the Loomis Parties or the Wells Fargo Parties, as the case may be,
as a result of such Direct Claim.  Within thirty days after the receipt of the
notice of a Direct Claim, the Loomis Stockholders Trust or Borg-Warner, as the
case may be, shall deliver cash payment to Newco in the amount set forth in such
notice, unless the procedures for arbitration set forth in Section 12.5(c) are
elected by such party for any disputed Indemnifiable Loss as a result of a
Direct Claim within such thirty days.

          (c) Subject to Section 12.6 hereof, in the event that either Borg-
Warner or the Loomis Stockholders Trust disagree as to the amount of any
Indemnifiable Loss which arises out of a Direct Claim or in connection with
Section 12.1, 12.3 or 12.4 hereof, at the

                                       70

<PAGE>
 
request of either the Loomis Stockholders Trust or Borg-Warner, as the case may
be, the matter shall be settled exclusively by arbitration held in such place as
is determined by the arbitrators, pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules
of the American Arbitration Association.  The arbitration shall be heard before
three arbitrators, each experienced in the matters at issue, one to be selected
by the Loomis Stockholders Trust or Borg-Warner, as the case may be, one to be
selected by Newco and the third to be selected by the first two arbitrators.
The arbitrators shall apply the law of the State of New York applicable to
contracts made and to be performed entirely in such state (without giving effect
to conflicts of law provisions thereof) in resolving any such dispute.  The
arbitrators shall not have the power or authority to alter, modify, amend, add
to or subtract from any term or provision of this Agreement, nor to grant any
injunctive relief, including interim relief, of any nature.  In all other
respects, the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration
Association shall govern the arbitration.  The parties acknowledge and agree
that the decision of the arbitrators pursuant to this Section 12.5(c) shall be
final and nonappealable and may be enforced by either the Loomis Stockholders
Trust or Borg-Warner, as the case may be, or Newco in any court of record having
jurisdiction over the subject matter or over any of the parties to this
Agreement.  Any amount awarded by the arbitrator pursuant to this Section 12.5
shall be paid promptly to the appropriate party by wire transfer to an account
designated by such party.

     SECTION 12.6.  Limitation of Liability.

          (a) Newco shall not be entitled to make a claim pursuant to Section
12.3 against Borg-Warner or Wells Fargo for any Indemnifiable Losses unless and
until the aggregate amount of such Indemnifiable Losses exceeds $500,000 and
then only in the amount of such excess; provided, however, that in no event
shall Borg-Warner and Wells Fargo, together, be liable pursuant to Section 12.3
for any Indemnifiable Losses in excess of $5,000,000 in the aggregate.

          (b) Newco shall not be entitled to make a claim pursuant to Section
12.3 against the Loomis Stockholders Trust for any Indemnifiable Losses unless
and until the aggregate amount of such Indemnifiable Losses exceeds $500,000 and
then only in the amount of such excess; provided, however, that in no event
shall the Loomis Stockholders Trust be liable pursuant to Section 12.3 for any
Indemnifiable Losses in excess of $5,000,000 in the aggregate; provided further
that the limitations set forth in this Section 12.6(b) shall not apply to any
Indemnifiable Losses incurred by Newco pursuant to Section 8.26.

Loomis Armored or the Loomis Stockholders Trust, on the one hand, or Borg-Warner
or Wells Fargo, on the other hand, to comply with any obligation, covenant,
agreement or condition contained herein may be waived in writing by Borg-Warner
or the Loomis Stockholders Trust, respectively, but such waiver or failure to
insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or
condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any
other failure.

     SECTION 13.3.  Validity.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
any other provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and
effect.

Subsidiaries; provided that Newco shall not pay or otherwise be responsible for
any costs or expenses related to any fairness opinion to be obtained by Borg-
Warner in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby.

     SECTION 13.5.  Parties in Interest.  This Agreement shall be binding upon

           SUPPLEMENTAL PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)
                             (MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)


Introduction
- ------------

The accompanying unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been prepared as
a result of the combination of the Company's armored services unit ("WFAS") with
Loomis, as described in the preceding information. The unaudited Pro Forma
Financial Information is based on the historical financial statements of the
Company and WFAS and gives effect to (i) the disposition of substantially all of
the assets and certain liabilities of WFAS and other adjustments related to the
business combination and (ii) the application of the net proceeds received by
the Company to repay certain indebtedness. The accompanying unaudited Pro Forma
Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 give effect to the transactions as if they
had been consummated on January 1, 1995. The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 1996 is presented giving effect to
the transactions as if they had been consummated as of that date.

The pro forma results of operations do not include any nonrecurring charges or
credits which will directly result from the transaction and which will be
included in the Company's results of operations within the 12 months following
the transaction. While the Company anticipates that it will recognize a gain
from the sale of WFAS' assets, the transaction is subject to potential
significant purchase price adjustments and any gain cannot be reasonably
estimated at this time. The Company does not anticipate that the gain will be
material. The Company does not expect any other material nonrecurring charges or
credits to result from the transaction.

The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information is intended for informational
purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the future results of
operations or financial position of the Company had the transactions described
above occurred on the indicated dates or been in effect for the periods
presented.

The unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information and the accompanying notes should
be read in conjunction with, and are qualified in their entirety by, the
historical consolidated financial statements of the Company and WFAS, including
the related notes thereto.

Notes to Pro Forma Statements of Earnings and Balance Sheet
- -----------------------------------------------------------

a To eliminate the historical revenues and expenses of WFAS and subsidiaries
  for the respective periods presented.

b To eliminate debt retired with proceeds received from the transaction and to
  adjust interest expense. Proceeds from the transaction, net of transaction and
  related expenses, were approximately $105 million and were applied as follows:
  decrease in borrowings under the term loan, $80 million; decrease in
  borrowings under the revolving line of credit, $10 million; and increase in
  interest-bearing cash deposits under the accounts receivable facility, $15
  million. The interest expense adjustment was computed using the average
  interest rates for the respective periods. Such rates were used because
  management believes these rates would have been the same if the facilities had
  been negotiated by the Company on a stand-alone basis without WFAS.

c To record the estimated income tax effect for the pro forma adjustments
  described in Notes (a) and (b) for the respective periods.

d To recognize, under the equity method, the Company's 49% interest in the pro
  forma net assets and earnings of Loomis, Fargo & Co. 

e To eliminate the historical assets, liabilities and stockholder's equity of
  WFAS and subsidiaries.

f To establish allowances for anticipated expenses incurred as a direct result
  of the business combination and for purchase price adjustments under the
  contribution agreement, including indemnifications and performance guarantees.
