Independent Auditors’ Report
to the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Otto Männer Holding AG, Bahlingen a. K., Germany


We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Otto Männer Holding AG and subsidiaries (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statement of profit and loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Germany, along with a reconciliation to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for net income for the year ended December 31, 2012 and stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2012 (collectively, the “reconciliations”) included as an appendix to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Germany and the reconciliations in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this consolidated financial statement based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, (i) the financial position of Otto Männer Holding AG, Bahlingen a. K. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Germany, and (ii) the results of their operations in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reissued with the reconciliations in adherence with SEC reporting requirements related to the anticipated sale of the Company’s subsidiaries to Barnes Group, Inc., a U.S. publicly-traded company.

The Otto Männer GmbH and the Otto Männer Immobilien GmbH are exempt from the disclosure of their annual financial statements in accordance with § 264 subs. 3 German Commercial Code (HGB), because this consolidated financial statement has been submitted to the commercial register at the registered office of both companies and the additional conditions mentioned in § 264 subs. 3 German Commercial Code (HGB) have been met.

3.
Consolidation principles, consolidation methods
Capital consolidation was performed using the book value method for all subsidiaries in accordance with § 301 subs. 1 no. 1 German Commercial Code (HGB) - old version - by offsetting the carrying amounts of the shares against the equity of the subsidiaries at the respective time of establishment. Differences resulting from capital consolidation are purely attributable to currency factors and are shown under the item "Currency translation differences".

Receivables and payables as well as expenses and income between the consolidated companies were eliminated. Any differences in calculation are attributable to currency factors.

Inter-group profits resulting from deliveries and services rendered between consolidated companies were eliminated.


4.
Accounting and valuation principles
The assets and liabilities included in the consolidated financial statement were uniformly prepared across the Group in accordance with §§ 290 et seq. German Commercial Code (HGB). The accounting and valuation principles applied have been retained unchanged from the previous year.

The valuation methods applied in the parent company's annual financial statement are decisive for the valuation of the assets and liabilities taken into the consolidated financial statement. If the accounting principles of the companies included in the consolidated financial statement differ substantially from the accounting and valuation principles of the parent company, the parent company performs an accounting and valuation correction with the help of the transitional stage of a commercial balance sheet II ("Handelsbilanz II").

The fixed assets were valued at acquisition or production cost less systematic depreciation for wear and tear. Scheduled depreciation for intangible assets is based on useful lives of 3 to 5 years, for buildings between 25 and 50 years and for other moveable property from 2 to 15 years.
If moveable property acquired through operating leases is taken on following expiry of the leasing agreement, the capitalised residual value is depreciated on a straight-line basis over 3 years.

Raw, auxiliary and operating materials as well as purchased parts are valued at average acquisition cost in accordance with the strict lowest value principle. Sufficient marketability discounts have been made.

Unfinished goods and work in progress are valued at production cost. This includes the production material, production wages and also the material and indirect production costs. If there were any inventory risks, appropriate devaluations have been made.

The receivables and other assets are valued at face value. Appropriate value adjustments have been made to cover potential default risks in respect of trade receivables. The general credit risk is sufficiently covered with a general bad-debt allowance for receivables.

Prepaid expenses include expenses before the balance sheet date that represent expenditure for a certain time after this date.



            
Page 14

The valuation of pension provisions was carried out in accordance with actuarial principles using an assumed interest rate of 5.04% p.a. Expected increases in salary have been taken into account at 2.00% p.a. The partial value method was used as a basis for calculation with the mortality tables of Prof. Dr. Klaus Heubeck. The pension provisions were offset against assets (reinsurance policies) serving solely to meet pension obligations and protected from the claims of all other creditors at their current market value.

The provisions for taxation and other provisions were formed in accordance with the expected amount of the claims and refer to all recognizable risks, contingent liabilities, threatened losses from pending contracts and warranties without legal obligation. Valuation has taken place at settlement amount, necessary cost increases have been taken into account. Provisions with a residual term of more than one year have been discounted at the corresponding market interest rate of the past seven years corresponding to their residual term.

Liabilities have been valued at their settlement amount. In the case of liabilities whose settlement amount is higher than the amount originally paid, the discount is shown under prepaid expenses.

Receivables, bank balances and liabilities in foreign currency with a residual term of less than one year have been generally valued at the average spot exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date. If the residual term was more than one year, the valuation has been generally carried out at the acquisition exchange rate or the lower exchange rate (foreign currency receivables) / higher exchange rate (foreign currency liabilities) applying at the time of balance sheet preparation.

Deferred taxes were calculated for all temporary differences arising between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their book values in the consolidated financial statement. There were no tax losses carried forward and tax credits as at 31 December 2012. Deferred taxes were valued by applying tax rates for individual companies and tax regulations which applied on the balance sheet date or which have been legally enacted and are expected to apply when the time difference is reversed.
The tax rates ranged from 16.5 - 39.3%. The deferred taxes were offset. The asset surpluses from the individual financial statements of the companies included were not capitalised.

5.
Currency translation
The average spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date has been used for the conversion of all assets and liabilities in the financial statements of the foreign companies outside the eurozone into the presentation currency. The items on the profit and loss account have been translated at the average middle exchange rate of the financial year and capital resources have been converted at historic rates. The gains or losses resulting from different exchange rates in the balance sheet and profit and loss account are offset against equity without impacting income and shown under the item "Currency translation differences".

In the consolidated fixed assets analysis, the currency translation differences arising from using current rates for the opening net book values as well as the differences from the currency translation of the transactions of the current year using average rates were shown in a separate column.

Notes on the balance sheet
Fixed assets
The development of the individual items of fixed assets in the financial year 2012 is presented in the "Development of Fixed Assets" which forms part of these appendices to the consolidated accounts.


Receivables and other assets
The amount of receivables with a residual term of more than one year existing at the date of the balance sheet was K€ 68. At this point, we refer to the notes on pension provisions.


Deferred taxes
Deferred tax assets amounting to K€ 571 were calculated on temporary differences reflected in income between the book values of the tax balance sheet and the book values in the consolidated balance sheet. Of this amount, K€ 390 is allocated to differences between the book values of the tax balance sheet and commercial balance sheet according to uniform Group principles ("HB II") which essentially results from temporary differences in the inventories, pension provisions and other reserves. Deferred taxes of K€ 181 have been allotted to consolidation measures impacting income.

Deferred tax liabilities were also calculated for differences between the book values of the tax balance sheet K€ 555 and the commercial balance sheet II ("HB II"). These mainly result from temporary differences from the tangible fixed assets and inventories due to different valuation methods and depreciation or devaluation methods.

Surplus assets in the individual financial statements amounting to K€ 251 have not been capitalised in accordance with the option available. Surplus liabilities amounting to K€ 416 were included in the balance sheet. The surplus liabilities were added to the deferred tax assets from consolidation measures. Due to tax deferment, the consolidated result has improved by K€ 125.


Setting off assets against liabilities in accordance with § 246 subs. 2 German Commercial Code (HGB)
Assets and liabilities from pension obligations were set off in the balance sheet in accordance with § 246 subs. 2 German Commercial Code (HGB).

The pension obligations are covered by reinsurance claims. The reinsurance claims are used solely to meet pension obligations and are protected from other creditors. The actuarial current value of the reinsurance policies amounted to K€ 1,404 on the balance sheet date, the settlement amount of the pension obligation was K€ 1,336. The difference of K€ 68 is included in "Other Assets". The acquisition costs of the reinsurance claims amounted to K€ 1,178.

The interest earned on the reinsurance claims amounted to K€ 25 and was set off against the interest expense of the pension obligation of K€ 63.

Explanation of notes:
(a)
Opening adjustment to shareholders’ equity
The line item opening adjustments represents the accumulative effect on retained earnings as of 1 January. In order to properly present the shareholders’ equity reported under US GAAP adjustments to opening retained earnings are required. The adjustments made are identical to those that are represented below. The opening adjustment of EUR -2,309k as of 1 January 2012 breaks down as follows:
Leasing: EUR 630k increasing retained earnings
Allowance for doubtful accounts: EUR 79k increasing retained earnings
Pensions: EUR 425k increasing retained earnings (EUR 197k from the Swiss plan and EUR 288k from the German plan)
Provisions: EUR -17k reducing retained earnings
Revenue recognition: EUR -4,473k reducing retained earnings
Inventory allowance: EUR 158k increasing retained earnings
Income taxes: EUR 889k increasing retained earnings

1 US GAAP adjustments include the German plan which is not subject to the acquisition by BGI.


            
Page 21



(b)
Leasing - Capital leases
Otto Männer Holding AG entered into several lease agreements for machinery and equipment which according to German GAAP were classified as operating leases. For US GAAP purposes however, some of these agreements are to be classified as capital leases. The net income effect (yearly expense for operating lease vs. interest expense and depreciation) are represented in the table above.

(c)
Allowance for doubtful accounts
According to German GAAP a lump sum general allowance on the basis of 1% is allowed to be accounted for. For US GAAP purposes however, the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on historical experience. Therefore, the lump sum allowance has been reversed in the table above.

(d)
Pensions - Defined benefit plans
The pension related reserves under German GAAP need to be restated in order to comply with ASC 715-30. According to German GAAP, the Otto Männer group entered into one defined benefit plan in Switzerland while the remaining three German plans are classified as defined contribution plans. However, two of the defined contribution plans are to be classified as defined benefit plans for US GAAP purposes. The impact on equity and the income statement reflects the different treatment of the plans under German GAAP. For defined benefit plans the values are based on actuary reports.

(e)
Revenue recognition - Bill and hold transactions
The company enters into bill and hold transactions for specific high precision molds. According to German GAAP revenue can already be recognized as soon as the contract is signed. For US GAAP purposes however, revenue recognition criteria are not yet fulfilled. Revenue is recognized at a later point of time and therefore the adjustment represents a timing difference in recognizing the revenue.

(f)
Inventory provision
Under German GAAP an additional provision was set up for items for which costs estimated to complete the product exceed the replacement cost. Such provision is not allowed under US GAAP since the costs not yet incurred are not allowed to be recognized considering the matching principle.

(g)
Income taxes - Impact on US GAAP adjustments
This adjustment reflects the impact on the Company’s provision for income taxes which the US GAAP adjustments described above have on the income statement and on Shareholders’ equity.
