Item 2.

On November 13, 2003, The Keller Manufacturing Company, Inc. (the “Company”) closed the sale of its former Culpeper, Virginia plant (the “Culpeper Property”) to Sign of the Goldfish, LLC (the “Purchaser”). As previously announced by the Company, operations at the Culpeper Property were discontinued as of November 22, 2002.

The Purchaser paid cash in an amount of $2.1 million to the Company, which has resulted in a gain of approximately $1.6 million to the Company on the sale. This purchase price was determined through negotiations between the parties. In connection with the sale, the Company, the Purchaser and Structural Systems have also entered into an Agreement Regarding Environmental Matters dated November 11, 2003 (the “Environmental Matters Agreement”), and an Environmental Cleanup and Escrow Agreement dated November 11, 2003 (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Environmental Matters Agreement provides that the Company will reimburse the Purchaser for the Purchaser’s actual costs and expenses in completing the excavation, removal and disposal approximately 1,755 tons of soil (the "Soil Disposal") that is located on the Culpeper Property, up to a maximum amount of $100,000. Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Company has deposited $100,000 in an escrow account to satisfy this obligation. The Environmental Matters Agreement further provides that, for a period of two years, the Company will indemnify the Purchaser for any damages over the amount of $100,000 (not including any amounts spent on the Soil Disposal) incurred or suffered by the Purchaser to comply with any remediation obligations as further described in the Environmental Matters Agreement or as a result of any breach of the representations and warranties of Keller set forth in the Purchase Agreement, up to a maximum amount of $500,000.
