Reason for sale.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Neuweg became a member of the NSK Group when the Company acquired UPI in 1990. Since then Neuweg has continued to produce double-row ball bearings under its brand/design. Due to the limited synergy with our existing business, we have been negotiating the sale of the company as part of our Europe structural reorganization and have now reached an agreement.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">2.
