Dear Valued Customer,

Recent increases in industrial demand along with the general economic recovery have brought on inflationary pressures in our industry. Throughout 2010 and 2011 we have been forced to absorb price increases driven by steel, currency exchange rates, freight and other economic factors.

As a result, we have reviewed our product families and will be passing through selective increases accordingly; increases should average approximately 5%. This new pricing will take effect 4/15/11, existing pricing will be honored for orders placed prior to 4/15/11.

Despite these inflationary pressures we are maintaining our low $25.00 order minimum, and we will continue to ship you any quantity that you need.

We value your business and look forward to exceeding your needs now and in the future. As always you can visit our Web-store at www.earnestmachine.com for price and availability.

Sincerely,

Dan Harriger
Director of Sales
