Item 4. Description of Securities - --------------------------------- Not applicable. Item 5. Interest of Named Experts and Counsel - --------------------------------------------- Not applicable. Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers - -------------------------------------------------- Pursuant to Section 34 of the Company's Regulations, the Company is required to indemnify any director or officer and any former director or officer of the Company, against expenses, 2 3 including attorney's fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by him by reason of the fact that he is or was such a director or officer, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the full extent permitted by applicable law. Ohio Revised Code Section 1701.13 permits indemnification of such persons with respect to such matters, other than an action by or in the right of the Company, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. In the case of an action brought by or in the right of the Company, such Ohio Revised Code section permits indemnification of such persons against expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the settlement or defense of such action if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, subject to certain exceptions, including an exception for a matter as to which such person is adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of such person's duty to the Company, unless the court in which such action was brought determines that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court shall deem proper. Each director and officer of the Company is a party to an indemnification agreement with the Company, which agreement provides that the Company will indemnify such officer or director against expenses, including, without limitation, attorney's fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement, in connection with any claim against such officer or director arising out of such person's being an officer or director of the Company, to the full extent provided by (i) the Company's Regulations in effect on the date of the agreement, (ii) the Company's By-laws, Regulations or Articles of Incorporation, as in effect at the time expenses are incurred, (iii) Ohio law on the date of the agreement or the law governing the Company at the time the expenses are incurred, or (iv) insurance maintained by the Company, at the option of such officer or director. The Company has also agreed to maintain 3 4 directors' and officers' liability insurance so long as such insurance is available on a basis acceptable to the Company, and to advance funds for expenses, provided the officer or director agrees to reimburse the Company if he is ultimately found not to be entitled to such indemnification. The Company maintains insurance policies that insure the Company's directors and officers against certain liabilities (excluding fines and penalties imposed by law) which might be incurred by them in such capacities and insure the registrant for amounts which may be paid by it (up to the limits of such policies) to indemnify the directors and officers covered by the policies.

Undertakings - --------------------- (a) The Company hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering; and (b) The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1993, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. 5 6 (h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described under Item 15 above or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. 6 7 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, Park-Ohio Industries, Inc. certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Cleveland, State of Ohio, on this 3rd day of June, 1997.
