<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">We are a global designer, manufacturer and distributor of products for commercial, industrial and consumer markets. Most of our businesses share
important characteristics, including: leading market positions, strong brand names, broad product offerings in focused markets, established distribution networks, relatively high operating margins, relatively low capital investment requirements with
significant opportunities for both organic growth and acquisitions. We use a common operating model across TriMas and all of our businesses. The TriMas Operating Model is the framework that provides commonality and consistency across our businesses,
wherever possible given the diverse nature of our businesses, and drives how we plan, budget, measure, review, incent and reward our people. It provides the foundation for determining our priorities, executing our growth and productivity initiatives
and allocating capital. We believe that a majority of our 2012 net sales were in markets in which our products enjoy the number one or number two market position within their respective product categories. Our leadership position across most of
these markets provides numerous growth opportunities, including: expansion into new markets, geographies and products supplemented by strategic acquisitions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

Energy (net sales: $190.2 million; operating profit: $17.8 million), Aerospace&nbsp;&amp; Defense (net sales: $78.6 million; operating profit: $20.8 million), Engineered Components (net sales: $200.0&nbsp;million; operating profit: $28.0 million),

We&#146;ve established global platforms to broaden our international reach which provides a competitive advantage in serving many of our largest customers. In addition, we&#146;ve developed an extensive distribution network which includes company

product families comprise more than 10% of our net sales, which provides us with a degree of protection against a downturn in any specific end-market. Furthermore, a significant portion of our products represent highly-engineered, customized

via bolt-on acquisitions and geographic expansion in several of our reportable segments. We also have experienced significant market share gains within our businesses and continued to develop and introduce new products, both of which are aiding in
our double-digit top-line growth rate despite low levels of economic growth. These accomplishments have enabled us to broaden our product portfolio and cross-sell our existing products to new markets while introducing our newly-acquired products
into our existing markets. In order to capture these opportunities, we strategically increased our investments in inventory levels, acquisition capital and capital projects in certain of our businesses compared to historical levels to ensure we had
the products available and capacity ready, particularly in our higher-margin platforms, to support the significant sales growth. </FONT></P>

important characteristics, including leading market shares, strong brand names, broad product offerings, established distribution networks, relatively high operating margins, relatively low capital investment requirements, product growth
opportunities and strategic acquisition opportunities. We believe that a majority of our 2010 net sales were in markets in which our products enjoy the number one or number two market position within their respective product categories. In addition,
we believe that in many of our businesses, we are one of only a few manufacturers in the geographic markets where we currently compete. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

$136.2 million for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The loss in 2008 principally resulted from <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-tax,</FONT> <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-cash</FONT> goodwill and
indefinite-lived impairment charges of $166.6 million, included in continuing operations. The losses in 2009 and 2008 were also impacted by losses from discontinued operations of $13.0 million and $12.1 million, respectively. In addition, interest
expense associated with our highly leveraged capital structure, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-cash</FONT> expenses such as depreciation and amortization of intangible assets and other asset impairments also contributed to our net losses. We
may experience net losses in the future. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Our businesses depend upon general economic conditions and we serve some

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our financial performance depends, in large part, on conditions in the markets that we serve in both the U.S. and global economies. Some of the industries that we serve are highly cyclical, such as the
automotive, construction, industrial equipment, energy, aerospace and electrical equipment industries. We may experience a reduction in sales and margins as a result of a downturn in economic conditions or other macroeconomic factors. Lower demand
for our products may also negatively affect the capacity utilization of our production facilities, which may further reduce our operating margins. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Many of our products are sold in competitive markets. We believe that the principal points of competition in our markets are product
quality and price, design and engineering capabilities, product development, conformity to customer specifications, reliability and timeliness of delivery, customer service and effectiveness of distribution. Maintaining and improving our competitive
position will require continued investment by us in manufacturing, engineering, quality standards, marketing, customer service and support of our distribution networks. We may have insufficient resources in the future to continue to make such
investments and, even if we make such investments, we may not be able to maintain or improve our competitive position. We also face the risk of lower-cost foreign manufacturers located in China, Southeast Asia and other regions competing in the
markets for our products and we may be driven as a consequence of this competition to increase our investment overseas. Making overseas investments can be highly complicated and we may not always realize the advantages we anticipate from any such
investments. Competitive pressure may limit the volume of products that we sell and reduce our operating margins. </FONT></P>

performance may be adversely impacted by further price increases. A failure by our suppliers to continue to supply us with certain raw materials or component parts on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, could have a material adverse effect on

with their respective carrying values. We estimate the fair value of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets utilizing a combination of a discounted cash flow approach, which is based upon management&#146;s operating budget and internal
five-year forecast, and market-based valuation measures that consider earnings multiples (for goodwill testing) and royalty rates (for indefinite-lived intangible asset testing). We test goodwill for impairment by comparing the estimated fair value
of each of our reporting units, determined using a combination of the aforementioned techniques, to its respective carrying value on our balance sheet. If carrying value exceeds fair value, then a possible impairment of goodwill exists and further
evaluation is performed. We test indefinite-lived intangible assets by comparing the estimated fair value of the assets, determined based on discounted future cash flows related to the net amount of royalty expenses avoided due to the existence of
the trademark or trade name, to the carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds fair value, an impairment charge is recorded. </FONT></P>

that, among other things, claims may be initially made in jurisdictions without specifying the amount sought or by simply stating the minimum or maximum permissible monetary relief, and may be amended to alter the amount sought. Of the 8,200 claims
pending at December&nbsp;31, 2010, 40 set forth specific amounts of damages (other than those stating the statutory minimum or maximum). 28 of the 40 claims sought between $1.0&nbsp;million and $5.0&nbsp;million in total damages (which includes
compensatory and punitive damages), 9 sought between $5.0&nbsp;million and $10.0&nbsp;million in total damages (which includes compensatory and punitive damages) and 3 sought over $10.0&nbsp;million (which includes compensatory and punitive
damages). Solely with respect to compensatory damages, 30 of the 40 claims sought between $50,000 and $600,000, 7 sought between $1.0&nbsp;million and $5.0&nbsp;million and 3 sought over $5.0&nbsp;million. Solely with respect to punitive damages, 28
of the 40 claims sought between $1.0 million and $2.5&nbsp;million, 9 sought between $2.5&nbsp;million and $5.0&nbsp;million and 3 sought over $5.0&nbsp;million. Total defense costs from January&nbsp;1, 2010 to December&nbsp;31, 2010 were
approximately $2.9&nbsp;million and total settlement costs (exclusive of defense costs) for all asbestos cases since inception have been approximately $5.8&nbsp;million through December&nbsp;31, 2009. To date, approximately 50% of our costs related

changes in financial estimates or recommendations by securities analysts; changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles; sales of common stock by us or members of our management team; and announcements by our
competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments. In addition, our financial results may be below the expectations of securities analysts and investors. If this were to occur, the market price of

significant price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations often have been unrelated to the operating performance of companies in these markets. Broad market and industry factors may negatively affect the price of our common stock, regardless of
our operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of an individual company&#146;s securities, securities class action litigation often has been instituted against that company. The institution of similar
litigation against us could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management&#146;s attention and resources, which could negatively affect our financial results. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

result, Heartland has the power to substantially influence all matters submitted to our stockholders, exercise significant influence over our decisions to enter into any corporate transaction and any transaction that requires the approval of
stockholders regardless of whether other stockholders believe that any such transactions are in their own best interests. For example, Heartland could cause us to make acquisitions that increase the amount of our indebtedness, sell
revenue-generating assets or cause us to undergo a &#147;going private&#148; transaction with it or one of its affiliates based on its ownership without a legal requirement of unaffiliated shareholder approval. In addition, Heartland has the power
to control the election of a majority of our directors. So long as Heartland continues to own a significant amount of the outstanding shares of our common stock, it will continue to be able to strongly influence or effectively control our decisions.
Its interests may differ from other stockholders and it may vote in a way with which other stockholders disagree. In addition, this concentration of ownership may have the effect of preventing, discouraging or deterring a change of control. One of
our directors is the Managing Member of Heartland&#146;s general partner. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>We are party to certain transactions with

actions. For example, our certificate of incorporation authorizes our Board of Directors to determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of an unissued series of preferred stock, without any vote or action by our shareholders.
Thus, our Board of Directors is able to authorize and issue shares of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting or other rights of holders of our common stock. Additional provisions include the sole
power of our Board of Directors to fix the number of directors, limitations on the removal of directors, the sole power of our Board of Directors to fill any vacancy on our board, whether such vacancy occurs as a result of an increase in the number
of directors or otherwise, and the inability of shareholders to act by written consent to call special meetings. These rights may have the effect of delaying or deterring a change of control of our company. In addition, a change of control of our
company may be delayed or deterred as a result of our having three classes of directors. These provisions could limit the price that certain investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. See &#147;Description of

stockholder, unless either the person becoming an interested stockholder or the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A &#147;business combination&#148; includes mergers, asset sales or other transactions resulting in a financial

it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control of us. Such provisions could limit the price that certain investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common
stock and may limit the ability of stockholders to remove current management or directors or approve transactions that stockholders may deem to be in their best interest and, therefore, could adversely affect the price of our common stock.

will have the effect of making it more difficult for stockholders to change the composition of our board. Our certificate of incorporation and the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">by-laws</FONT> provide that subject to any rights of holders of
preferred stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the number of directors will be fixed from time to time exclusively pursuant to a resolution adopted by the board, but must consist of not less than three or more than
fifteen directors. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, unless otherwise provided in our certificate of incorporation,

to the corporate secretary. Generally, to be timely, a stockholder&#146;s notice must be received at our principal executive offices not less than 90 nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the previous year&#146;s annual meeting.
Our <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">by-laws</FONT> also specify requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder&#146;s notice. These provisions may impede stockholders&#146; ability to bring matters before an annual meeting of stockholders

debt securities may be issued as senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities. The indebtedness represented by the senior debt securities will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated debt. The indebtedness
represented by the subordinated debt securities will rank junior and be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of our senior debt, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement for the
securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The senior debt securities and the subordinated debt securities will be issued under separate indentures between

indenture&#148; and the indenture covering the subordinated debt securities as the &#147;subordinated indenture.&#148; Together the senior indenture and the subordinated indenture are called &#147;indentures.&#148; </FONT></P>

subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, or the Trust Indenture Act, and may be supplemented or amended from time to time following their execution. We have not yet selected a trustee for either of the indentures, and we have not
yet executed either indenture. Prior to issuing any debt securities, we will be required to select a trustee for the applicable indenture or indentures, qualify the trustee or trustees under the Trust Indenture Act and execute the applicable
indenture or indentures. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The form of each indenture gives us broad authority to set the particular terms of each series of
