Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

On April 1, 2010, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of January 8, 2010, by and between the Issuer, Hillenbrand and Krusher Acquisition Corp., a New Jersey corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Hillenbrand (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub merged with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased and the Issuer, as the surviving corporation of the Merger, became a wholly owned subsidiary of Hillenbrand.

At the effective time of the Merger:

•

each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger was converted into the right to receive $150.00 in cash (without interest and less any required withholding tax);

	•		each share of the Issuer’s unvested restricted Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger became fully vested and was converted into the right to receive $150.00 (without interest and less any required withholding tax);

	•		each stock option issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, whether vested or unvested, was cancelled and exchanged for a cash payment equal to the excess of $150.00 (without interest and less any required withholding tax) per underlying share of Common Stock over the per share exercise price of the option; and

	•		each Restricted Stock Unit award issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger vested and was canceled in exchange for a cash payment of $150.00 (without interest and less any required withholding tax) per underlying share of Common Stock.

At the effective time of the Merger, the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation was amended and restated substantially as was set forth in Exhibit C to the Merger Agreement, and the by-laws of Merger Sub became the by-laws of the Issuer, except all references to Merger Sub’s name were replaced with references to K-Tron International, Inc. The amended and restated certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Issuer are listed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2 hereto, respectively, and are incorporated by reference to Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, of the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 5, 2010 (the “April 5 Form 8-K”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (i) each member of the board of directors of the Issuer ceased to hold such position and (ii) the Filing Person resigned as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer and resigned from each other position held with the Issuer and each of its subsidiaries.

Shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock ceased trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) after the closing of the market on April 1, 2010. Following the effective time of the Merger, Nasdaq filed a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to delist the Common Stock.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement. The Merger Agreement, listed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto, is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 2.1 of the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 12, 2010 (the “January 12 Form 8-K”).

	•		9,000 shares of unvested restricted Common Stock held by the Filing Person fully vested and were converted into the right to receive $150.00 per share (without interest);

	•		an exercisable stock option to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock held by the Filing Person was canceled in exchange for a cash payment of $1,378,000, representing the excess of $150.00 (without interest) per underlying share of Common Stock over the $12.20 per share exercise price of the stock option; and
