TABLE OF CONTENTS
Altra Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this
Current Report on
Form 8-K
for the purpose of incorporating the contents of this report in
the Registration Statement on
Form S-3,
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
October 15, 2009, pursuant to which the Company may offer
debt securities (the “Debt Securities”). As indicated
in the Registration Statement, the Company’s direct and
indirect U.S. domestic subsidiaries may unconditionally
guarantee the Debt Securities.
In connection with the issuance of the Debt Securities,
Rule 3-10
of Securities and Exchange Commission
Regulation S-X
requires that the Company provide certain condensed
consolidating financial information. To provide this
information, Note 19 has been added to the Company’s
consolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2008, by amending Item 8 of Part II
(Financial Statements and Supplementary Data) of its Annual
Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2008 (the “2008
Form 10-K”).
As this Current Report on
Form 8-K
is being filed only for the purpose described above, and only
affects the Item specified above, the other information in the
Company’s 2008
Form 10-K
remains unchanged. No attempt has been made in this Current
Report on
Form 8-K
to modify or update disclosures in the Company’s 2008
Form 10-K
except as described above. This Current Report on
Form 8-K
does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the
Company’s 2008
Form 10-K
or modify or update any related disclosures. Information in the
Company’s 2008
Form 10-K
not affected by this Current Report on
Form 8-K
is unchanged and reflects the disclosures made at the time of
the filing. Accordingly, this Current Report on
Form 8-K
should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2008
Form 10-K
and the Company’s other filings made with the Securities
and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the 2008
Form 10-K.
