Acquisition or Disposition of Assets On October 6, 1997 (the "Closing Date"), Thermo Remediation Inc. (the "Company") sold its 50% limited liability company interest in RETEC/TETRA, L.C., a Texas limited liability company (the "Joint Venture"), to TETRA Thermal, Inc. (the "Buyer"). Prior to this sale, the Buyer held the other 50% limited liability company interest in the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture, established in August 1992, engages in the business of installing and operating systems to process hazardous and nonhazardous wastes at petroleum refineries located primarily in the Gulf Coast region of the United States. The selling price for the Company's interest in the Joint Venture was $8,825,000 in cash. The selling price is subject to post-closing adjustments in the event of certain further sales of interests in the Joint Venture or its assets within six months after the Closing Date. Under the terms of the agreement originally establishing the Joint Venture, either party to the agreement had the right to propose a value for a 50% interest in the Joint Venture (the "Proposing Party") and to cause the other party (the "Electing Party") either to (i) buy the Proposing Party's interest in the Joint Venture at such price or (ii) sell the Electing Party's interest in the Joint Venture to the Proposing Party at such price. The selling price was proposed by the Buyer and the Company elected to sell the Buyer its interest in the Joint Venture at such selling price. The disposition was made pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Agreement") executed on October 6, 1997, by and among the Company's Remediation Technologies, Inc. and RETEC Thermal, Inc. subsidiaries, as well as the Buyer and its TETRA Technologies, Inc. affiliate. In the Agreement, the Buyer and its affiliate agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to indemnify the Company and its subsidiaries against claims arising out of the operations, debts and liabilities of the Joint Venture arising both before and after the Closing Date. The terms of the Agreement were determined by arms' length negotiation among the parties. 2PAGE FORM 8-K Item 7.
