Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On June 26, 2006, Bairnco Corporation (the “Company”) entered into change in control agreements (the “Change in Control Agreements”) with certain senior executives of the Company, including Kenneth L. Bayne, Larry C. Maingot, Larry D. Smith, Daniel T. Holverson, Elmer G. Pruim, Robert M. Carini, Brian E. Turner and Morgan Ebin. Each Change in Control Agreement entitles the executive to severance benefits if his employment with the Company is terminated within 24 months of a change in control of the Company, unless such termination is (i) due to death or retirement, (ii) by the Company for cause or due to disability, or (iii) by the executive without good reason. The amount of severance will be equal to the one times the sum of (a) the highest annual rate of salary in the twelve months preceding the executive’s termination date and (b) the higher of the executive’s average annual bonus for the past two completed fiscal years or the executive’s target bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination occurs. In addition, each executive will be entitled to a pro-rata annual bonus for the year in which his termination of employment occurs and to continue participating in the Company’s welfare benefit programs for up to one year following his termination of employment. If the executive becomes entitled to severance under the change in control agreement, he will not be entitled to severance pay under any other agreement with the Company. The Change in Control Agreements also commit the executives to remain employed with the Company in the event of a tender or exchange offer until such offer has been terminated or a change in control has occurred.

The form of the Change in Control Agreement entered into with each of the senior executives is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto. The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Change in Control Agreement which is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 8.01 Other Events
