             Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To  the  Participants,   Administrator  and  Compensation  Committee  of  Albany
International Corp. Prosperity Plus Savings Plan

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the  related  statements  of changes in net assets  available  for  benefits
present fairly, in all material respects,  the net assets available for benefits
of Albany  International  Corp.  Prosperity  Plus  Savings  Plan (the "Plan") at
December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the changes in net assets available for benefits
for the years then ended in  conformity  with  accounting  principles  generally
accepted in the United States of America.  These  financial  statements  are the
responsibility  of the Plan's  management.  Our  responsibility is to express an
opinion on these  financial  statements  based on our audits.  We conducted  our
audits of these  statements  in  accordance  with the  standards  of the  Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain  reasonable  assurance about whether the
financial  statements  are free of  material  misstatement.  An  audit  includes
examining,  on a test basis,  evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the  financial   statements,   assessing  the  accounting  principles  used  and
significant  estimates made by management,  and evaluating the overall financial
statement  presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable  basis
for our opinion.

Our audits  were  conducted  for the  purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial  statements  taken as a whole.  The  supplemental  schedules of assets
(held at end of year) and delinquent participant contributions are presented for
the  purpose of  additional  analysis  and are not a required  part of the basic
financial   statements  but  are  supplementary   information  required  by  the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations  for Reporting and Disclosure  under
the  Employee  Retirement  Income  Security  Act  of  1974.  These  supplemental
schedules are the  responsibility  of the Plan's  management.  The  supplemental
schedules have been subjected to the auditing  procedures  applied in the audits
of the basic financial  statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material  respects  in  relation to the basic  financial  statements  taken as a
whole.

Albany International Corp.
Prosperity Plus Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.    Description of Plan

      The following description of the Albany International Corp. (the
      "Company") Prosperity Plus Savings Plan (the "Plan") provides only general
      information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more
      complete description of the Plan's provisions.

      General
      The Plan is a defined contribution plan and is subject to the provisions
      of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The Plan
      covers all full time domestic employees of the Company and its
      subsidiaries who are 21 years of age or older. Eligible employees hired on
      or after January 1, 2009, automatically become Participants in the Plan
      for purposes of making Pre-Tax Participant Contributions, unless otherwise
      elected by the Participant.

      Contributions
      Employees may make voluntary contributions to the Plan of 1% to 15% of
      eligible compensation, subject to certain limitations, on a before-and/or
      after-tax basis as defined in the Plan. Participants may also contribute
      amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or
      defined contribution plans. Participants direct the investment of their
      contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan. The
      Plan currently offers nineteen registered investment companies, a
      common/collective trust, a brokerage option and Albany International Class
      A common stock. The Company makes a matching contribution to the Plan in
      varying percentages up to 5% of the participant's eligible compensation
      (which may be in a combination of both shares of Company Class A stock and
      cash). Employees may convert any of the Albany International Class A
      common stock in their match and profit sharing accounts into the other
      available investment fund options. During 2009 and 2008, the Company's
      matching contributions of $3,843,687 and $4,277,124 included $3,675,671
      (313,943 shares) and $4,055,127 (150,030 shares) of Albany International
      Class A common stock, respectively.

      Profit-Sharing Contribution
      The Plan provides for a profit-sharing contribution. Profit-sharing
      contributions are based upon a minimum 1% employee participation in the
      Plan and are in addition to, and separate from, Company voluntary matching
      contributions. In order to receive a profit-sharing contribution, an
      employee must be an active contributing participant in the Plan during the
      final quarter of the year for which the profit-sharing contribution is
      made, unless the employee has been suspended from participation because of
      a hardship withdrawal. If an employee is eligible, yet chooses to
      participate for less than a full year, the profit-sharing contribution
      will be pro-rated. An employee who retires during the year is also
      eligible to receive a profit sharing contribution on a pro-rata basis. The
      amount of the profit sharing contribution is based on a formula stated at
      the beginning of the year. The Company's contribution for profit-sharing
      may be made in either cash or Albany International Class A common stock
      (or both) following the end of the year.

      The profit sharing contributions were $1,610,966 and $1,675,387 for the
      years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Profit sharing
      contributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008
      included $1,675,387 (175,718 shares) and $1,683,555 (43,748 shares),
      respectively, of Albany International Class A common stock.

      Participant Accounts
      Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution
      and allocations of (a) the Company's contributions and (b) Plan earnings.
      Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as
      defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit
      that can be provided from the participant's vested account.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      Vesting
      Participants are vested immediately in their and the Company's
      contributions plus actual earnings thereon.

      Pension Purchase Option
      Effective February 28, 2009 the Pension Purchase Option is no longer
      available to participants. The Plan allowed retiring plan participants to
      purchase additional pension benefits by transferring existing Plan account
      balances to the Company's Pension Plus Plan.

      Payment of Benefits
      Upon termination of service, total disability, death or retirement,
      participants have the option to receive an amount equal to the value of
      their accounts in a lump sum payment or, in the case of total disability
      or retirement, monthly installments over a period not to exceed 15 years.
      Participants may also elect prior to retirement to withdraw up to 100% of
      their after-tax contributions and up to 100% of before-tax contributions
      if the Internal Revenue Service's criteria for "financial hardship" are
      met.

      Plan Termination
      The Company intends to continue the Plan indefinitely but reserves the
      right to modify, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan. In the event of
      plan termination, distributions would be allocated based on the value of
      the participant accounts.

      Administrative Costs
      The Plan stipulates that all costs incurred in administering the Plan
      shall be borne by the Company or, if the Compensation Committee so
      determines, by the Plan. The Company paid Plan administrative expenses of
      $48,284 and $64,808 during 2009 and 2008, respectively.

2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

      Use of Estimates
      The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting
      principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
      Plan management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
      amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
      liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
      amounts of changes in net assets during the reporting period. Actual
      results could differ from those estimates.

      Risks and Uncertainties
      The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of
      stocks, bonds, mutual funds and other investment securities. Investment
      securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and
      credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment
      securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of
      investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in
      risks in the near term would materially affect participants' account
      balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets
      available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets
      available for benefits.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
      The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Accounting principles
      define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an
      asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or
      most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly
      transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

      Accounting principles establish a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring
      fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the
      use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be
      used when available. The hierarchy is broken down into three general
      levels: Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical
      assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs include data points that are
      observable, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in
      active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or similar assets or
      liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs (other than quoted
      prices) such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable for
      the asset and liability, either directly or indirectly; Level 3 inputs are
      unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include
      situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset
      or liability. The asset's or liability's fair value measurement level
      within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input
      that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques
      used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
      unobservable inputs.

      Investments in registered investment companies are valued using active
      markets at the latest quoted sales price on the last business day of the
      year, which represents the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at
      year end.

      Investment contracts held by a defined-contribution plan are required to
      be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant
      measurement of fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because
      contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to
      initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the plan. The Plan
      invests in investment contracts through the Vanguard Retirement Savings
      Trust, a collective trust. The statements of net assets available for
      benefits present the fair value of the investment in the collective trust
      as well as the adjustment of the investment in the collective trust from
      fair value to contract value relating to the investment contracts. The
      statement of changes in net assets available for benefits is prepared on a
      contract value basis. The investment in the common/collective trust is
      recorded at net asset value (prior to adjustment to contract value) of
      shares held by the Plan at year end. There are no penalties or
      restrictions for withdrawing assets from the collective trust at any time.

      The common stock of Albany International Corp. is valued using active
      markets at the latest quoted price on the last business day of the year.

      Participant loans are valued at amortized cost which approximates fair
      value.

      These methods may produce a fair value calculation that may not be
      indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.
      Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate
      and consistent with other market participants, the use of different
      methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain
      financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement
      at the reporting date.

      Security transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. Gains or losses
      on sales of securities are based on average cost.

      Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends declared by
      the Board of Directors of the Company on Albany International Corp. Class
      A common stock may be reinvested in the Plan or received as a cash
      distribution as

      elected by the participant. Total cash dividends received by participants
      were $543,297 and $365,783 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008,
      respectively. Interest income is recorded as earned.

      The Plan presents in the statement of changes in net assets available for
      benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of its
      investments, which consists of realized gains and losses and unrealized
      appreciation/depreciation on those investments.

      Payment of Benefits
      Benefit payments are recorded when paid.

      Recent Accounting Pronouncements
      In April 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
      guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity
      for the asset and liability have significantly decreased and for
      identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. The
      guidance provides additional application guidance in determining fair
      values when there is no active market or where the price inputs being used
      represent distressed sales. The adoption of these provisions did not have
      a material impact on the financial statements.

      In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance that establishes general standards
      of accounting for, and requires disclosure of, events that occur after the
      balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are
      available to be issued. The adoption of these provisions did not have a
      material effect on the financial statements.

      In June 2009, the FASB established a Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
      Accounting Principles, and introduced the FASB Accounting Standards
      Codification TM (the Codification) as the source of authoritative
      accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by
      nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in
      conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The
      adoption of these provisions did not have a material effect on the
      financial statements.

      In September 2009, the FASB issued guidance on the fair value measurement
      of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per
      share (or its equivalent). The adoption of these provisions did not have a
      material impact on the financial statements.

      In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance that requires reporting entities
      to make new disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair-value
      measurements, including significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and
      Level 2 fair-value measurements and information on purchases, sales,
      issuances, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level
      3 fair-value measurements. The guidance is effective for the plan year
      2010 financial statements, except for Level 3 reconciliation disclosures
      that are effective for the plan year 2011 financial statements. It is
      expected that the adoption of this guidance will not have a material
      effect on the financial statements.

      balance over the last 12 months, or 50% of their account balance. Interest
      rates on loans are determined by the Compensation Committee from time to
      time with the rate remaining constant throughout the life of the loan
      (rates range between 4.25% and 10.25% at December 31, 2009 and 2008).
      Loans are to be repaid through payroll deductions, although they may be
      repaid in a lump sum amount, generally over a period from 1 to 5 years
      except for loans for the purchase of a primary residence. Home purchase
      loan repayments range from 5 to 20 years.

6.    Related Party Transactions

      The Plan invests in shares of mutual funds managed by an affiliate of
      Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company ("VFTC"). VFTC acts as trustee for the
      investments held by the Plan. The Plan also invests in shares of the Plan
      Sponsor's Albany International Class A common stock. The Plan purchased
      $1,359,540 and $8,656,415 and sold $10,224,677 and $6,375,258 of Albany
      International Class A common stock during the years ended December 31,
      2009 and 2008. Transactions in such investments qualify as
      party-in-interest transactions which are exempt from the prohibited
      transaction rules.

7.    Tax Status

      The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
      letter dated January 31, 2004, that the Plan is qualified and the trust
      established under the Plan is tax-exempt, under the appropriate sections
      of the Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination
      letter. However, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan is
      currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable
      requirements of the Code. Therefore, the Plan administrator believes that
      the Plan was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of the
      financial statement date.

8.    Subsequent Events

      Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred
      through the date the financial statements were available to be issued and
      noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or
      additional disclosures.
