Sources and Uses of Funds

The following information supplements the Preliminary Prospectus Supplements, dated January 8, 2007, filed pursuant to Rule 433, Registration Statement No. 333-139854 .

The following table sets forth the sources and uses of funds in connection with Baldor’s pending acquisition of the Reliance Electric industrial motors and Dodge mechanical power transmission businesses from Rockwell Automation, Inc. (the “Acquisition”):

Sources	Amount		Uses	Amount
	(in millions)			(in millions)

(1) Baldor is expected to enter into a new senior secured credit facility in connection with the Acquisition. Baldor’s new senior secured facility will include (i) a $1,000 million term loan facility and (ii) a $200 million revolving credit facility, which is expected to be undrawn at the closing of the Acquisition.

(2) Based on the average closing sale price per share of Baldor’s common stock on the NYSE composite transactions reporting system for each of the ten consecutive trading days ending prior to November 6, 2006, the date the acquistion agreement was signed (1,579,280 shares of Baldor’s common stock)

The common stock offering and 2017 Notes offering are not contingent on each other, but are contingent on the closing of the Acquisition.

See “The Transactions” in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplements, dated January 8, 2007 filed by Baldor with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Underwriting

The following information supplements the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement relating to the common stock, dated January 8, 2007, filed pursuant to Rule 433, Registration Statement No. 333-139854.

$95.0 million of the proceeds from the Financing Transactions (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplements) will be used to repay existing indebtedness of Baldor. Because more than 10% of the proceeds of the common stock offering, not including underwriting compensation, could be deemed to be received by affiliates of the underwriters of the common stock offering, the common stock offering is being conducted in compliance with National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (“NASD”) Conduct Rule 2710(h). Pursuant to that rule, the appointment of a qualified independent underwriter is not necessary in connection with the common stock offering, as the offering is of a class of equity securities for which a “bona fide independent market,” as defined by the NASD, exists.

An affiliate of SunTrust Capital Markets, Inc. is acting as underwriter in both the common stock and the 2017 Notes offering. An affiliate of SunTrust Capital Markets, Inc. has agreed to act as lender under Baldor’s revolving credit facility and provide a commitment for the bridge loan facility. An affiliate of SunTrust Capital Markets, Inc. holds a portion of Baldor’s existing indebtedness, which is being repaid with part of the proceeds from the Financing Transactions.
