Xerium Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into interest rate swap transactions on November 16, 2007 with the counterparties indicated below and with the initial notional amounts set forth opposite the counterparties’ names below:

The Company entered into the interest rate swap transactions to mitigate the Company’s floating rate interest risk on approximately 85% of the term loan portion of its senior credit facility. These interest rate swaps cover the period from December 31, 2007 to December 31, 2010. The notional amounts of these interest rate swaps are scheduled to decline in order to reflect certain scheduled required principal payments under the term loan facility. The U.S. dollar based interest rate swaps have an average annual interest rate of 4.195% plus the applicable margin under the senior credit facility; the Euro based interest rate swaps have an average annual interest rate of 4.245% plus the applicable margin under the senior credit facility; and the Canadian dollar based interest rate swaps have an average annual interest rate of 4.460% plus the applicable margin under the senior credit facility. The applicable margin under the credit facility is currently 2.75%. Under these swaps, the Company is required to make quarterly fixed rate payments to the counterparties calculated on the notional amount of the swap and the interest rate for the particular swap indicated above, while the counterparties are obligated to make certain quarterly floating rate payments to the Company referencing the same notional amount. These interest rate swaps effectively fix the weighted average annual interest rate (based upon foreign currency exchange rates as of November 19, 2007) payable on approximately 85% of the term loan portion of the Company’s senior credit facility to 4.246% plus the applicable margin. Notwithstanding the terms of the interest rate swap transactions, the Company is ultimately obligated for all amounts due and payable under its existing senior credit facility. The Company may enter into additional swap transactions in the future from time to time.

In connection with entering into the new interest rate swap transactions above, on November 16, 2007 the Company cancelled, or transferred to a financial institution, its rights and obligations under its previously existing interest rate swaps, which were set to expire on June 30, 2008, and in consideration therefor the Company received the cash value of its previously existing interest rate swaps as of November 16, 2007 of approximately $5.6 million.

The Company expects the new interest rate swaps to qualify for hedge accounting under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended, and that, accordingly, the changes in their fair value will not be subject to mark to market accounting through earnings.
