ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
On June 11, 1998, Amtech Corporation (the "Company"), a leading provider of
electronic access control and security management systems, services and
products, completed the previously announced sale (the "Sale") of its
Transportation Systems Group to UNOVA, Inc. ("UNOVA"). The Sale consisted of
the sale of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of three of the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, Amtech Systems Corporation, Amtech World
Corporation (excluding its direct subsidiary, CardKey Sicherssysteme GmbH) and
AMGT Corporation, and substantially all of the assets of another wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company, Amtech International S.A. The purchase price was
determined using a net book value formula plus a premium. The value of the
transaction, based on estimated May 31, 1998 balance sheet amounts is
approximately $31 million and is subject to certain post-closing adjustments.
As a result of the Sale, the Company received approximately $20 million in
cash and 2,211,900 unregistered shares of its common stock that were previously
purchased by UNOVA. Included in the Sale are the Company's manufacturing and
technology facility in Albuquerque, New Mexico, its radio frequency
identification technologies and other intellectual properties, the brand name
Amtech(R), and all current operations associated with the Transportation Systems
Group.
Prior to the Sale, UNOVA owned 13 percent of the issued and outstanding
common stock of the Company. Michael Keane, a Senior Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer of UNOVA, is a director of the Company.

UNOVA (as agent for Intermec) shall, on and as of the dates indicated in Section
1.7, pay and remit to Amtech the "Non-French Purchase Price" (as defined in
Section 1.7(a)(i) below), in accordance with and to the extent provided in
Section 1.7, and (ii) French Subsidiary shall (a) on and as of the dates

as of the Transfer Date, assume the "Assumed Liabilities" (as defined in Section
1.8), in accordance with and to the extent provided in Section 1.8 (as limited
by Section 1.9).
1.7 Purchase Price and Payment.
--------------------------
(a) Determination of Purchase Price.
-------------------------------
(i) The purchase price (the "Purchase Price") for the Shares
and the Purchased Assets is the amount equal to the "Closing Net Book Value" (as
defined below) plus $1,650,000 (the "Premium"); provided, however, that if the
value of the 2,211,900 shares of common stock of Amtech held by UNOVA (the
"UNOVA Shares") (based on the closing market price on NASDAQ on the Closing
Date) (the "UNOVA Shares Value") is greater or less than $10,000,000 (which is
the amount paid by UNOVA for the UNOVA Shares on November 3, 1997), the Purchase
Price shall be increased or decreased by the amount of such difference. The
"Closing Net Book Value" shall mean the net book value of the net assets of
Adjusted TSG as of the Transfer Date, as reflected on a balance sheet of
Adjusted TSG as of the Transfer Date (the "Final Closing Balance Sheet"),
prepared in accordance with subparagraph (ii) below. The "French Purchase Price"
shall mean that portion of the Closing Net Book Value representing the Purchased
Assets and Assumed Liabilities of AI; and the "Non-French Purchase Price" shall
mean the Purchase Price less the French Purchase Price.
(ii) The Final Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") applied on a
basis consistent with that used in the preparation of the "December Balance
Sheet" (as defined in Section 3.2(a)); provided, however that (1) the Final
Closing Balance Sheet shall not include (A) those portions of Amtech and its
consolidated subsidiaries that are not part of Adjusted TSG, (B) any of the
Excluded Assets or Unassumed Liabilities of AI, (C) any assets or liabilities
related to any federal income Taxes, and (D) the Brazilian Notes, (2) any amount
that will become payable by any member of TSG to any "Employee" (as
5
<PAGE>
defined in Section 3.15(a) or any third party) as a consequence of the Closing
("Change of Control Payments") shall be reflected as a liability on the Final
Closing Balance Sheet, (3) the Final Closing Balance Sheet shall include such
other adjustments as are described on Exhibit A-2, and (4) all account balances
denominated in foreign currencies shall be translated into United States Dollars
using the currency exchange rates in effect on the Transfer Date, as published
in the Wall Street Journal on the first business day following the Transfer
Date.
(iii) Within 45 days following the Closing Date, Amtech, with
the assistance and cooperation of UNOVA, shall prepare and deliver to UNOVA a
balance sheet of Adjusted TSG as of the Transfer Date (the "Preliminary Closing
Balance Sheet"), prepared in accordance with subparagraph (ii) above. UNOVA
shall have 30 days following its receipt of the Preliminary Closing Balance
Sheet (the "Review Period") to review the same for compliance with subparagraph
(ii) above. On or before the expiration of the Review Period, UNOVA shall
deliver to Amtech a written statement accepting or objecting to the Preliminary
Closing Balance Sheet. In the event that UNOVA shall object to the Preliminary
Closing Balance Sheet, such statement shall include an itemization of UNOVA's
objections and its reasons therefor. If no such statement is delivered by UNOVA
to Amtech within the Review Period, UNOVA shall be deemed to have accepted the
Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet.
(iv) In the event that UNOVA shall accept or shall be deemed to
have accepted the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet as prepared and delivered by
Amtech, the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet shall constitute the Final Closing
Balance Sheet for purposes of determining the Purchase Price. In the event,
however, that UNOVA shall object to the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, UNOVA
and Amtech shall promptly meet and in good faith attempt to resolve the issues
that are in dispute. In the event that the issues in dispute shall not have been
resolved within 30 days following Amtech's receipt of UNOVA's statement of
objections to the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, such disputed issues shall
be resolved within an additional 60 days by Price Waterhouse (the "Independent
Firm"). The costs and expenses of the Independent Firm in reviewing the issues
in dispute shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by UNOVA and fifty percent (50%)
by Amtech. The Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, as adjusted to reflect the
adjustments agreed upon by such Parties or determined in accordance with this
Section 1.7(a)(iv), shall constitute the Final Closing Balance Sheet for
purposes of determining the Purchase Price.
(b) Payment of Estimated Purchase Price. At Closing, (1)
-----------------------------------
UNOVA (as agent for Intermec) shall pay to Amtech, by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the bank account at FNB--Maryland, Account Name:
Alex. Brown & Sons, Inc., Account Number 068-876-8-00, for further credit to
Amtech Corporation, Account Number 231-71008-1-2, ABA Number 052000113 (the
"Amtech Bank Account"), the amount equal to $20,000,000 (the "Estimated Non-
French Cash Purchase Price"), (2) French Subsidiary shall pay to AI, by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by AI in
writing within two business days (a "business
6
<PAGE>
day" being a day on which banks are not authorized or required to close in
California or Texas) prior to Closing (the "AI Bank Account"), the amount equal
to $100,000 (the "Estimated French Purchase Price"), which is the Parties' best
estimate of the French Purchase Price, and (3) UNOVA shall transfer and assign
to Amtech the UNOVA Shares. The sum of the Estimated Non-French Cash Purchase
Price and the UNOVA Shares Value is referred to as the "Estimated Non-French
Purchase Price," and the sum of the Estimated Non-French Purchase Price, the
Estimated French Purchase Price and the UNOVA Shares Value is referred to as the
"Estimated Purchase Price." It is understood and agreed that the amount of cash
payable by UNOVA to Amtech and by French Subsidiary to AI at Closing shall
remain unchanged regardless of whether the UNOVA Shares Value is less than,
greater than or equal to $10,000,000.
(c) Settlement of Purchase Price. In the event that the
----------------------------
Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.7(a)) is greater or
less than the Estimated Purchase Price (such excess or deficiency being referred
to as the "Adjustment"), on or before the third business day following the date
upon which the Purchase Price is finally determined, the Adjustment shall be
paid as follows: (i) If the Non-French Purchase Price is greater than the
Estimated Non-French Purchase Price, UNOVA shall pay to Amtech the excess of the
Non-French Purchase Price over the Estimated Non-French Purchase Price, plus
interest on such amount from the Closing Date to the date of payment at the rate
of six percent (6%) per annum ("Purchase Price Adjustment Interest Rate"); (ii)
If the French Purchase Price is greater than the Estimated French Purchase
Price, French Subsidiary shall pay to AI the excess of the French Purchase Price
over the Estimated French Purchase Price, plus interest on such amount from the
Closing Date to the date of payment at the Purchase Price Adjustment Interest
Rate; (iii) if the Non-French Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Non-
French Purchase Price, Amtech shall pay to UNOVA the excess of the Estimated
Non-French Purchase Price over the Non-French Purchase Price, plus interest on
such amount from the Closing Date to the date of payment at the Purchase Price
Adjustment Interest Rate; and (iv) if the French Purchase Price is less than the
Estimated French Purchase Price, AI shall pay to French Subsidiary the excess of
the Estimated French Purchase Price over the French Purchase Price, plus
interest on such amount from the Closing Date to the date of payment at the
Purchase Price Adjustment Interest Rate.
(d) Allocation of Purchase Price. The consideration given by
----------------------------
Intermec and French Subsidiary under this Agreement (including without
limitation the payment of the Purchase Price and the assumption of the Assumed
Liabilities) shall be allocated among the Shares and the Purchased Assets in
accordance with Section 1060 and/or Section 338 of the Code, the regulations
under the Code and in accordance with Exhibit C. Within 60 days following the
date upon which the Purchase Price is finally determined, UNOVA shall prepare
Form 8023 and shall furnish a copy thereof to Amtech. If Amtech does not object
to the Form 8023 prepared by UNOVA within 30 days following its receipt thereof,
such statement shall be final for purposes of this Agreement. In the event,
however, that Amtech objects to the Form 8023 within 30 days
7
<PAGE>
after the receipt thereof, Amtech and UNOVA shall meet promptly and in good
faith attempt to resolve any objections of Amtech and to use their best efforts
to agree upon the allocation among the Shares and the Purchased Assets. In the
event that Amtech and UNOVA are unable to resolve their differences over the
Form 8023, such differences shall be resolved in accordance with Section 12.15.
The Parties agree to reflect the allocation finally determined pursuant to this
Section 1.7(d) in filing their respective tax returns or declarations for
foreign, federal, state or local income tax purposes.

Sheet. During the 180-day period following the Transfer Date (the "Collection
Period"), Intermec shall (and shall cause the relevant members of TSG to) use
the normal collection procedures used in the Business (but in no event shall any
of them be obligated to file or perfect any liens or file or prosecute any suit
as part of its collection effort) to collect all billed accounts, notes and
drafts receivable which are legally due under the relevant contract and which
will be included in the Final Closing Balance Sheet (the "Transfer Date
Receivables"). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, "legally due under the
relevant contract" means the amount billed excluding any retention permitted
under such contract until the conditions of such retention are fulfilled. Any
payments received by Intermec or French Subsidiary or any member of TSG from any
person who is the account debtor on any of the Transfer Date Receivables (a
"Customer") shall be applied as specified by the Customer, unless it is
uncertain which invoice is being paid, in which case, payments shall be applied
in the order of the oldest invoice first. Amtech shall promptly remit to
Intermec any payments that it or any of the Remaining Amtech Subsidiaries may
receive in respect of any of the Transfer Date Receivables. Intermec and French
Subsidiary shall (and shall cause the relevant members of TSG to) make and keep
detailed records of amounts collected in respect of the Transfer Date
Receivables until such time as the "Uncollected Receivables" (as defined in
paragraph (b) below) are assigned to Amtech pursuant to paragraph (b) below.
(b) Repurchase of Accounts Receivable. Promptly following the
---------------------------------
expiration of the Collection Period, Intermec shall deliver to Amtech a
statement setting forth (i) a list and description of the Transfer Date
Receivables that were not collected during the Collection Period (the
"Uncollected Receivables"), and (ii) a schedule setting forth the calculation of
the aggregate amount of Uncollected Receivables less the reserve provided for
Uncollected Receivables on the Final Closing Balance Sheet plus interest on such
net amount from the Closing Date to the date of payment to Intermec at the
Purchase Price Adjustment Interest Rate. Within 10 business days following
Amtech's receipt of such statement, Amtech shall pay to Intermec, by wire
transfer of immediately available funds, the amount of such statement, including
applicable interest, and upon receipt of such payment, Intermec and French
Subsidiary shall (and shall cause the relevant members of TSG to) assign without
recourse the Uncollected Receivables to Amtech. Following such assignment, (i)
Intermec and French Subsidiary shall (and shall cause the relevant members of
TSG to) remit to Amtech any payments it shall receive on such Uncollected
Receivables, and (ii) Amtech shall consult with Intermec prior to instituting
any legal proceedings or taking any other extraordinary measures to collect the
Uncollected Receivables, and if requested by Intermec, shall refrain from
instituting such legal proceedings or taking such other extraordinary measures
if Intermec, French Subsidiary or the relevant member of TSG retains or
repurchases the Uncollected Receivable in question.

which Amtech or the Remaining Amtech Subsidiaries conduct business under the
name Amtech. At the sooner of the first annual meeting of Amtech's shareholders
held after the Closing Date or August 30, 1998, Amtech shall submit to its
shareholders a proposal that they approve Amtech's change of its corporate name
to a name that does not include "Amtech" or derivations thereof (the "Corporate
Name Change"), and shall recommend approval of such proposal. As promptly as
practicable after the Closing Date, Amtech shall cause each of the Remaining
Amtech Subsidiaries whose name includes the word "Amtech" to change its
corporate name to a name that does not include the word "Amtech" or derivations
thereof. From and after the Closing Date, Amtech and AI shall (and shall cause
the Remaining Amtech Subsidiaries to) cease to use the name "Amtech" or "Amtech
Corporation" or derivations thereof, except (i) as necessary to effect the name
changes provided for in the foregoing sentence, (ii) in connection with its
trading symbol prior to the effectiveness of the Corporate Name Change, (iii) in
connection with any required use of its legal name (rather than the DBA) prior
to the effectiveness of the Corporate Name Change, and (iv) to use up existing
stationery, packing, shipping, invoices, purchase orders and similar supplies
which bear the name "Amtech" for the period necessary to exhaust such supplies,
but in no event longer than the later of the date of the effectiveness of the
Corporate Name Change and six months from and after the Transfer Date; provided,
however, that from and after the tenth business day following the Closing Date,
Amtech and AI shall (and shall cause the relevant Remaining Amtech Subsidiaries
to) overprint, overstamp, apply an appropriate label or otherwise obliterate the
name "Amtech" on such items; and provided, further, however, that from and after

Amtech shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the "Buying Interests" from any

Interests as a result of use of the name "Amtech" (or derivations thereof)
following the Closing Date.
8.8 Performance Bonds. UNOVA shall after the Agreement Date use its best
-----------------
efforts to substitute effective as of the Closing its credit for the credit of
Amtech securing the obligations of any member of TSG under any of its or their
executory contracts (the "Performance Bonds"), including without limitation
those contracts and agreements set forth on Schedules 3.8(h) and (j) but
excluding Performance Bonds identified on Schedule 3.8(h) as the "Amtech
Remaining Guarantees." Pending such substitution, Amtech shall keep the
Performance Bonds in full force and effect. See Section 11.2(d) regarding
indemnification in connection with the Performance Bonds.
8.9 Collection of Brazilian Notes. As and when payments of principal and
-----------------------------
interest are made to AWC under the Brazilian Notes, Intermec shall cause AWC to
45
<PAGE>
promptly remit such amounts to Amtech. At any time after the Closing, at the
option of Amtech, which shall be exercised, if at all, by giving written notice
to UNOVA, UNOVA shall cause AWC to assign to Amtech or its designee legal title
to the Brazilian Notes.
8.10 Immunity from Infringement. UNOVA shall not (and shall not permit any
--------------------------
of its subsidiaries, including the members of TSG following the Closing Date,
to) sue Amtech or any of the Remaining Amtech Subsidiaries (for so long as such
Remaining Amtech Subsidiaries are Affiliates of Amtech) for infringement of any
Intellectual Property presently owned by or assigned to any member of TSG or
assigned to UNOVA or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, to the
extent that such infringement is caused by the manufacture, use or sale of
products of Amtech or the Remaining Amtech Subsidiaries, which products exist on
the Closing Date.
8.11 Thailand and BEFIC Inventory. In the event that following the Closing
----------------------------
Date, any of the Buying Entities or any member of TSG shall sell any of the
inventories related to the Thailand or BEFIC contracts, which inventories shall
be fully reserved on the Final Closing Balance Sheet pursuant to Section
1.7(a)(ii) and Exhibit A-2, UNOVA shall pay to Amtech an amount (the "Inventory
Payment") equal to eighty percent (80%) of the "Net Proceeds" (as hereinafter
defined) of such sale; provided, however, that in no event will the Inventory
Payment be less than fifty percent (50%) of the original inventory value less
the "Deductions" (as hereinafter defined). "Net Proceeds" shall mean the sales
price received less the following (the "Deductions"): any selling, general or
administrative expenses directly related to such inventory, and costs required
to be invested in such inventory to make it saleable, and any shipping costs.
In the event that such inventory shall not have been sold prior to December 31,
1999, Amtech will have the right until March 31, 2000 to have such inventory
delivered to Amtech, at its expense.
8.12 Texas Rangers. Prior to the conclusion of the 1998 season and
-------------
subsequent to the Closing Date, UNOVA shall be entitled to receive, upon
request, tickets to the Texas Rangers games and access to Amtech's suite at the

liability or obligation related to such tickets subsequent to the conclusion of
the 1998 season.
8.13 Agreements Regarding Certain Contracts. If any of the Selling
--------------------------------------
Entities or any member of TSG expects to incur warranty costs on the Thailand,
Kansas Turnpike or Georgia 400 contracts, in each case, in excess of the amount
of the respective warranty reserves provided for such contracts on the Final
Closing Balance Sheet, UNOVA shall request Amtech's prior written consent to
incur such costs ("Excess Warranty Costs"), which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Following UNOVA's receipt of such consent by
Amtech, such Selling Entity or member of TSG may incur such Excess Warranty
Costs, and Amtech shall pay to UNOVA the amount of such Excess Warranty Costs
actually incurred by such Selling Entity or member of TSG. Separately, if the
Thailand customer pays for, or returns, all or a portion of the 10,100 tags
advanced to it by Amtech, UNOVA shall remit to Amtech the gross profit or

Interests or the Selling Interests shall have (i) suffered any Loss, or (ii)
received any notice of the commencement of any action, proceeding or
investigation or the making of any claim or demand by a third party (a "Third
Party Claim"), in each case, in respect of which indemnification may be sought
by such party pursuant to this Article 11, the party who shall have suffered
such Loss or received such notice of such Third Party Claim and who
55
<PAGE>
shall seek indemnification in respect thereof (the "Indemnified Party") shall
give Amtech or UNOVA, as the case may be (the "Indemnifying Party"), prompt
written notice of such Loss or Third Party Claim setting forth in reasonable
detail such information as it shall have pertaining thereto and the Indemnified
Party's demand for indemnification in respect thereof.
In the case of Third Party Claims, written notice thereof shall be
given to the Indemnifying Party as promptly as practicable; provided, however,
that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give timely notice shall not affect
rights to indemnification hereunder if (i) such failure to give timely notice
does not materially affect the ability or right of the Indemnifying Party to
defend such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party is not otherwise
materially prejudiced thereby, and (ii) actual notice is given to the
Indemnifying Party within a reasonable time.
The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days from the date of receipt of
said notice (the "Investigation Period") to investigate and dispute the nature,
validity or amount of any such claim of Loss or Third Party Claim. During the
Investigation Period, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the
Indemnifying Party for the purpose of such investigation and, without
limitation, the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party
the information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate the
Indemnified Party's claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall have reasonable
access, during normal business hours, to the books, records and other documents
of the Indemnified Party relating to such claim and shall have the right to take
copies at its expense of such relevant books, records and documents for the
purpose of such investigation. In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall
dispute the nature, validity or amount of a claim hereunder, the Indemnifying
Party shall give the Indemnified Party written notice of such dispute within the
Investigation Period, and the relevant Parties shall meet promptly thereafter
and in good faith attempt to resolve such dispute. To the extent that such
Parties cannot resolve any dispute by agreement within 21 days following such
notice of dispute, such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section 12.15.
In the absence of a dispute, the Indemnifying Party shall promptly,
and in any event not later than the expiration of the Investigation Period,
reimburse the Indemnified Party in full for such Loss, as set forth in the
notice. In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall dispute only the amount
(and not the validity) of the claim, the Indemnifying Party shall, concurrently
with the delivery of its notice of dispute, pay to the Indemnified Party any
undisputed portion of the claim.
11.4 Defense and Settlement of Third-Party Claims. In the event of a Third
--------------------------------------------
Party Claim, if the Indemnifying Party acknowledges that, as between it and the
Indemnified Party, it is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party in
connection with such Third Party Claim, then such Indemnifying Party shall have
the option to take control of the defense and investigation of such Third Party
Claim, and to employ and
56
<PAGE>
engage attorneys of its own choice to handle and defend the same, at the
Indemnifying Party's sole cost, risk and expense (the "Direct Litigation
Option"). The Indemnifying Party may elect to exercise the Direct Litigation
Option by giving prior written notice to the Indemnified Party. If the
Indemnifying Party so elects, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in all
reasonable respects with the Indemnifying Party and such attorneys in the
investigation, trial and defense of such Third Party Claim and any appeal
arising therefrom and shall permit access to the personnel of the Indemnified
Party and to any relevant books, records and documents within the possession or
control of Indemnified Party in connection with such claim and to take copies of
such relevant materials at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; provided,
however, that the Indemnified Party may, at its own cost, participate in (but
not control) such investigation, trial and defense of such Third Party Claim and
any appeal arising therefrom. If the Indemnifying Party does not elect the
Direct Litigation Option, then the Indemnified Party shall defend against the
Third Party Claim in the manner it deems appropriate.
The Indemnifying Party may settle a Third Party Claim upon 30 days
prior written notice (the "Settlement Review Period") to the other Party, and
such settlement shall be binding upon all the Parties; provided, however, that
except as otherwise provided with respect to an unauthorized "Non-Monetary
Settlement" (as defined below in this Section 11.4), if within the Settlement
Review Period the Indemnified Party shall have objected to such settlement, the
Indemnifying Party shall either, at the election of the Indemnified Party: (i)
contest the claim at the expense of the Indemnified Party (provided the
Indemnified Party shall advance to the Indemnifying Party such expenses as may
subsequently be incurred), or (ii) permit the Indemnified Party to defend the
claim on its behalf and at its expense provided that the Indemnified Party shall
keep the Indemnifying Party advised on a timely basis of all developments with
respect to such claim and permit the Indemnifying Party to participate, at its
election and expense, in the defense of such claim. Upon the resolution of a
Third Party Claim a proposed settlement of which the Indemnified Party shall
have rejected as provided in this paragraph (a "Rejected Settlement"), the
Indemnifying Party's responsibility with respect to such claim shall be limited
to the amount of the proposed settlement plus all costs and expenses incurred in
connection with the defense of such Third Party Claim on or prior to the date on
which the Rejected Settlement was rejected by the Indemnified Party.
Any settlement or finally determined claim resulting from such contest
which is made in accordance with this Section 11.4, together with the total
expenses of such contest, shall be binding on the Parties for purposes of this
Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
11.4, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any
settlement that (a) provides for non-monetary relief binding on the Indemnified
Party or (b) does not include an unconditional and complete release of the
Indemnified Party by the claimant (a "Non-Monetary Settlement"). In the event
that a Non-Monetary Settlement is proposed by the
57
<PAGE>
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party does not consent thereto, the
Indemnifying Party shall continue to be responsible for the full amount of the
costs, expenses and any settlement or judgment with respect to such Third Party
Claim in accordance with this Article 11.
11.5 Limitations on Indemnification.

Encumbrances of Title), 11.1(b) (Breach of Covenant or Agreement), 11.1(c)
(Taxes), and 11.1(f) (Unassumed Liabilities), to the extent it is based on an
Absolute Unassumed Liability, which are not subject to the Threshold. After the

of Warranty), to the extent it is based on a breach of Section 3.5 (Mortgages,

Section 11.1, the maximum amount of indemnification that Amtech or AI shall be
obligated to pay pursuant to Section 11.1 shall be $10,000,000 (the "Cap"),
except for indemnification pursuant to Sections 11.1(c) (Taxes), and 11.1(f)

constituting such breach.

---------------------------------
to indemnify or hold harmless any Party for (a) consequential Losses arising out
of any interruption of business, loss of profits, loss of use of facilities,

same are (i) caused, contributed to or exacerbated by the actions of the
Indemnified Party, or (ii) recovered by the Indemnified Party under any

prior to the Transfer Date, or (iii) offset by tax savings realized and received
on account of such Losses by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates.
11.8 Exclusive Remedy. This Article 11 sets forth the exclusive remedy for
----------------
monetary damages owing from Amtech or AI to the Buying Interests and from UNOVA
or Intermec to the Selling Interests that arise from the matters described in
Sections 11.1 and 11.2, except for any claims in which fraud is proven. Each of
the Parties hereby waives any claim or cause of action (other than a claim or
cause of action in which fraud is proven) for monetary damages that it might
assert against the other, with respect to the matters described in Sections 11.1
and 11.2, whether under common law or under any environmental, securities, trade
or other law.

collectively as the "Parties" and individually as a "Party."
RECITALS
A. UNOVA, Intermec Technologies Corporation ("Intermec") and Intermec
Technologies S.A. ("French Subsidiary"), on the one part (UNOVA, Intermec and
French Subsidiary are referred to collectively as the "Buying Entities"), and
Amtech Corporation ("Amtech") and Amtech International S.A. ("AI"), on the other
part, have entered into that certain Agreement (the "Purchase and Sale

from AI substantially all of the assets of AI (said transactions are referred to
collectively as the "Transaction").
B. Section 6.11 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement requires, as a
condition precedent to the obligations of the Buying Entities to consummate the
Transaction, that the Parties shall have entered into this Agreement.
C. The Restricted Party desires to induce UNOVA to consummate the
Transaction.
D. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement
shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase and Sale Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the Parties agree as
follows:
1. Nonsolicitation Agreement. The Restricted Party covenants and agrees
-------------------------
that for a period of two years following the Transfer Date (the "Restricted
Period"), he or it, as applicable shall not solicit, encourage, facilitate or
induce any customer, supplier, agent, sales representative, consultant, employee
or licensee of any "UNOVA Company" (as defined below) to discontinue his or its
business relationships with any UNOVA Company in respect of the Business. The
Restricted Party further covenants and agrees that during the Restricted Period,
he or it, as applicable shall not solicit, as an employee, independent
contractor or otherwise, or hire any "Continuing Employee" (as defined in
Section 8.5(a) of the Purchase and Sale Agreement) or any individual who is on
the date of this Agreement an
1
<PAGE>
employee of Intermec or any of its subsidiaries (other than such persons who
have resigned from employment entirely of their own accord at least six months
prior to any solicitation or hiring by the Restricted Party or have been
involuntarily terminated) and, in each case, who is at such time or has been
within six months prior thereto an employee of any UNOVA Company in respect of
the Business, except with the prior written consent of UNOVA or by means of
general advertising. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "UNOVA Company"
shall mean Intermec and each of its subsidiaries as of the Closing Date and
French Subsidiary and the members of TSG and ACL following the Closing Date.
2. Resolution of Disputes. In the event of any dispute between UNOVA and
----------------------
the Restricted Party arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the
performance, breach, validity or interpretation or enforcement of this
Agreement, such dispute shall be submitted to arbitration and finally settled
under the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association by an
arbitrator appointed in accordance with those Rules. The place of the
arbitration shall be Los Angeles, California. The award and findings of such
arbitrator shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties, and judgment upon
such award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The
Restricted Party shall bear all costs and expenses of his advisors and one-half
of the costs and expenses of the arbitration, and UNOVA shall bear all costs and
expenses of its advisors and one-half of the costs and expenses of the
arbitration.
3. Injunctive and Equitable Relief. The Restricted Party agrees that the
-------------------------------
remedy of a UNOVA Company at law for any breach of Section 1 may be inadequate
and that in the event of any such breach or violation by the Restricted Party
(as determined by arbitration under Section 2), such UNOVA Company shall be
entitled to injunctive relief in addition to any other remedy, at law, in equity
or under this Agreement to which such UNOVA Company may be entitled. Without
limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Parties acknowledge and
agree that it is impossible to measure in money all of the damages that would
accrue to such UNOVA Company by reason of any breach of Section 1. The
Restricted Party waives in advance any claim or defense, in any arbitration that
may in the future be commenced by such UNOVA Company to enforce such provisions,
that such UNOVA Company has an adequate remedy at law.
4. Beneficiaries. All UNOVA Companies are beneficiaries under this
-------------
Agreement and any UNOVA Company shall be entitled to commence arbitration under
Section 2 to enforce this Agreement without the necessity of joining any other
UNOVA Company.
5. Notices. All notices, requests, demands or other communications

-------------
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its
conflicts of law rules.

-----------------------
simultaneously in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument, and any of such counterparts may be delivered by facsimile

----------------
provision of this Agreement shall be held to be a waiver of any other or
subsequent breach, and the failure of a UNOVA Company to enforce at any time any
provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any right of a UNOVA
Company to subsequently enforce such provision. All remedies afforded in this
Agreement shall be taken and construed as cumulative, that is, in addition to
every other remedy provided in this Agreement or by law.
9. Construction. This Agreement shall be interpreted without regard to

AMTECH CORPORATION CLOSES SALE OF TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS GROUP
VALUE OF THE TRANSACTION IS APPROXIMATELY $31 MILLION
DALLAS - June 11, 1998 - Amtech Corporation (NASDAQ: AMTC) announced today that
it has closed the sale of its Transportation Systems Group to UNOVA, Inc. (NYSE:
UNA), a $1.5 billion revenue company with headquarters in Beverly Hills,
California. The value of the transaction, based on estimated May 31st balance
sheet amounts and subject to certain minor post-closing adjustments, is
estimated at approximately $31 million.
As a result of the transaction, Amtech received approximately $20 million in
cash and the 2,211,900 unregistered shares that were previously purchased by
UNOVA in late 1997. Included in UNOVA's purchase are the Amtech manufacturing
and technology facility in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Amtech's radio frequency
identification (RFID) technologies and other intellectual properties, the brand
name Amtech, and all current operations associated with the transportation
business. UNOVA will operate the new unit as Amtech Systems Division of
Intermec Technologies Corporation, with the division having lead responsibility
for RFID.
Following the return of the UNOVA shares to the company, Amtech has
approximately 15 million shares outstanding. The company, which will change its
name and corporate office location in the near future, said that it retained
certain federal tax benefits as a result of the transaction.
The Electronic Security Group, the company's remaining operating business,
accounted for 55% of the company's total 1997 revenues and is currently
comprised of Cardkey Systems and Cotag International. This unit generates
annual revenues of approximately $65-70 million.
Amtech Corporation is a leading provider of electronic access control and
security management systems, services, and products marketed under the Cotag and
Cardkey brand names. For further investor information, visit Amtech's investor
