As of the Record Date, 5,183,895 shares of the Company's common stock, $.01 par value per share ("Common Stock") are outstanding, and each share will be entitled to one (1) vote, with no shares having cumulative voting rights.

Members of our management have been informed that our controlling shareholder intends to vote in favor of all of the nominees for directors and for the ratification of The GriggsGroup,Pivot CPAs to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

PROPOSAL NO. 1:

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

General

Article III, Section 1 of the Company’s By-Laws provides that the Company’s Board of Directors shall consist of a minimum of five (5)three (3) and a maximum of nine (9) directors divided into three (3) classes of directors ("Class I", "Class II", and "Class III"), with each class having as nearly the same number of directors as practicable. Stockholders elect such class of directors, Class I, Class II, or Class III, as the case may be, to succeed such class directors whose terms are expiring, for a three (3) year term, and such class of directors shall serve until the successors are elected and qualify. Under this configuration, it is intended that one class of directors’ terms will expire each year resulting in staggered elections of the Company’s directors. At last year’s annual meeting the term of the Company’s Class IIIIlI Directors expired. As a result, at last year’s annual meeting William E. Nielsen, John J. Martorana, and Lael E. Boren were elected as Class IlI Directors.

The following is the apportionment of the existing directors into classes:

Unless authority is withheld, the proxies in the accompanying form will be voted in favor of the election of Leland E. Boren Matthew M. Price and Martha R. Songer as Class l Directors. If Mr. Boren Mr. Price or Ms. Songer should subsequently become unavailable for election prior to the Annual Meeting, the persons voting the accompanying proxy may in their discretion vote for a substitute.

Board of Directors

The Board of Directors has the responsibility for establishing broad corporate policies and for the overall performance of the Company. Although only two (2) membersone (1) member of the Board areis involved in day-to-day operating details, the other members of the Board are kept informed of the Company's business by various reports and documents sent to them as well as by operating and financial reports made at Board meetings. The Board of Directors held four (4)two (2) meetings in Fiscal 2013.2016. One director was absent at one of the meetings of the Board of Directors during Fiscal 2013.2016. Although it has no formal policy requiring attendance, the Company encourages all directors to attend the annual meeting of stockholders. All of the Company’s directors attendedAt last year’s annual meeting of stockholders and itno directors were absent. It is anticipated that all of its directors will attend this year’s Annual Meeting.

Independence of Directors

Rule 5605 (b) (1) of The Nasdaq Stock Market Rules (the “NASDAQ Rules”) requires that a majority of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors be independent in that they are not officers or employees of the Company and are free of any relationship that would interfere with the exercise of their independent judgment.

The Board of Directors has determined that three of the Company’s eightseven Directors, Ronald L. McDaniel, John J. Martorana, and Matthew M. Price are independent. In reaching this determination, the Board applied the standards set forth for “independence” in Rule 5605 of the Nasdaq Rules, Section 10A(m)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Although less than fifty (50%) percent of the Company’s Directors are independent, NASDAQ Rule 5615(c)(2) provides an exemption from the requirement that a majority of the Company’s Directors be independent if the Company is considered a “controlled company”. A controlled company is defined in NASDAQ Rule 5615(c)(1) as a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, a group or another company. As Leland E. Boren beneficially owns and controls more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s’ common stock, the Company is considered a “controlled company” under the applicable NASDAQ Rule and as such is exempt from certain of the corporate governance rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market, such as the requirement that the board of directors consist of a majority of independent directors.

Committees

Nominating Committee

Because the Company is a “controlled company” it is exempt from the nominating committee requirements under the NASDAQ Rules. Therefore, the Company does not have a standing nominating committee or a nominating committee charter. However, the full Board of Directors performs the functions of a nominating committee pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board. The Board identifies the candidates for Board membership. In identifying candidates, the Board will seek recommendations from existing Board members, executive officers of the Company and all persons who own more than five percent (5%) of the Company’s outstanding stock. The Board has no stated specific minimum qualifications that must be met by a candidate for a position on the Board of Directors. The Board will consider a variety of factors in evaluating the qualifications of a candidate including the candidate’s professional experience, educational background, knowledge of the Company’s business and personal qualities. The Board may, when appropriate, retain an executive search firm and other advisors to assist it in identifying candidates for the Board. In addition, the Board will consider any candidates that may have been recommended by any of the Company’s stockholders who have made those recommendations in accordance with the procedures described below under the heading “Stockholders’ Proposals.” In addition, such stockholder recommendations must be accompanied by(1) such information about each prospective director nominee as would have been required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission had the prospective director nominee been nominated by the Board of Directors and (2) that the prospective director nominee has consented to be named, if nominated, as a nominee and, if elected, to serve as a director. To date, the Company has not received any recommendations from shareholders requesting a candidate for inclusion among the slate of nominees in the Company’s proxy statement. The directors of the Company who participated in the consideration of director-nominees included in this proxy statement were Leland E. Boren, John J. Martorana and Ronald L. McDaniel.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee primarily assists our Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities by reviewing our financial reporting and audit processes and our systems of internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls. In fiscal 2013,2016, Ronald L. McDaniel, Matthew M. Price and Lael E. Boren were members of the Company’s Audit Committee. Mr. McDaniel serves as the audit committee’s “financial expert” as that term is defined by applicable SEC regulations. Each of the members of the Audit Committee met the independence and experience requirements of the NASDAQ Rules, the applicable Securities Laws and the regulations and rules promulgated by the SEC.

The Audit Committee has adopted an Audit Committee Charter, a copy of which is available at the Company’s website, www.Intl-baler.com. The Audit Committee reviews and reassesses the Audit Committee Charter annually.

The Audit Committee's functions are: To review with management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm the scope of the annual audit and quarterly statements, significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of the Company’s financial statements;

The Audit Committee met with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm in fiscal 20142017 to discuss the audit of the Company’s 20132016 year-end financial statements. It is intended that in fiscal 20142017 Mr. McDaniel will continue to be designated the Committee’s financial expert.

Audit Committee Report

The Audit Committee has:

Based on the foregoing materials and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements for the year ended October 31, 20132016 be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2013.2016.

Compensation Committee

The Company’s Board of Directors maintains a Compensation Committee, although as a controlled company it is not required to do so pursuant to NASDAQ Rule 5615(c)(1). During fiscal 2013,2016, Lael E. Boren, John J. Martorana and Ronald L. McDaniel were members of the Company’s Compensation Committee. Mr. Boren was not an independent director as that term is defined under applicable NASDAQ Rules, Securities Laws and SEC rules and regulations. The Compensation Committee’s functions, in conjunction with the Board of Directors, are to provide recommendations with respect to, general and specific compensation policies and practices of the Company for directors, officers and other employees of the Company. The Compensation Committee expects to periodically review the approach to executive compensation and to make changes as competitive conditions and other circumstances warrant and will seek to ensure the Company's compensation philosophy is consistent with the Company's best interests and is properly implemented. The Committee determines or recommends to the Board of Directors for determination the specific compensation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and all of the Company’s other officers. Although the Committee may seek the input of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer in determining the compensation of the Company’s other executive officers, the Chief Executive Officer may not be present during the voting or deliberations with respect to his compensation. The Committee may not delegate any of its responsibilities unless it is to a subcommittee formed by the Committee. The Compensation Committee met one time in Fiscal 2012.2016. The Committee has the authority to retain a compensation consultant or other advisors to assist it in the evaluation of compensation and has the sole authority to approve the fees and other terms of retention of such consultants and advisors and to terminate their services. To date, the Committee has not retained any such consultants or advisors to assist it, although it may do so in the future if it deems it necessary. The Compensation Committee has adopted a Compensation Committee Charter which is available at the Company’s website at www.Intl-baler.com.

PROPOSAL NO. 2:

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF THE GRIGGSGROUP,PIVOT CPAs

AS INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors has selected the firm The GriggsGroup,Pivot CPAs independent registered public accounting firm to audit the accounts for the Company’s fiscal year ending October 31, 20142016 (“Fiscal 2014”2016”).

The Board of Directors considers The GriggsGroupPivot CPAs to be well qualified for the function of serving as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Delaware General Corporation Law does not require the approval of the selection of auditors by the Company’s stockholders, but in view of the importance of the financial statements to stockholders, the board of Directors deems it desirable that they pass upon its selection of auditors. In the event the stockholders disapprove of the selection, the Board of Directors will consider the selection of another independent registered public accounting firm.

Audit and Non-Audit Fees

The following table presents the fees for professional audit services rendered by The GriggsGroupPivot CPAs for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements for the fiscal years ended October 31, 20122016 and 2011,2015, and fees for other services rendered by The GriggsGroupPivot CPAs during those periods:

All of the 20132016 and 20122015 services described above were approved by the Audit Committee in accordance with the SEC rule that requires audit committee pre-approval of audit and non-audit services provided by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has considered whether the provisions of such services, including non-audit services, The GriggsGroupPivot CPAs is compatible with maintaining The GriggsGroupPivot CPAs independence and has concluded that it is.

BOARD RECOMMENDATION AND VOTE REQUIRED

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote in favor of the above proposal selecting The GriggsGroupPivot CPAs (Griggs) as independent registered public accounting firm for the Company.

A representative of GriggsPivot CPAs is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting with the opportunity to make a statement if he desires to do so, and is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Ratification will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present and voting at the meeting in person or by proxy. In the event ratification is not provided, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors will review the future selection of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

Unless otherwise directed by the stockholder giving the proxy, the proxy will be voted for the ratification of the selection by the Board of Directors of GriggsPivot CPAs as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2014.2016. Shares voted as abstaining will count as votes cast. Accordingly, an abstention from voting by a stockholder present in person or by proxy at the meeting has the same legal effect as a vote "against" Proposal No. 2 because it represents a share present or represented at the meeting and entitled to vote, thereby increasing the number of affirmative votes required to approve this proposal.

Proposals of stockholders intended to be presented at the 20152017 annual meeting must be received in writing, by the President of the Company at its offices by November 14, 2014in15, 2016 in order to be considered for inclusion in the Company's proxy statement relating to that meeting.

SEC rules and regulations provide that if the date of the Company's 20152018 Annual Meeting is advanced or delayed more than 30 days from the date of the 20142017 Annual Meeting, stockholder proposals intended to be included in the proxy materials for the 20142017 Annual Meeting must be received by the Company within a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and mail the proxy materials for the 20152017 Annual Meeting. Upon determination by the Company that the date of the 20152018 Annual Meeting will be advanced or delayed by more than 30 days from the date of the 20142017 Annual Meeting, the Company will disclose such change in the earliest possible Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
