[IBH]

Effective August 17, 2010, as part of final
amendment to the transaction with Terex Corporation, Atlas Maschinen GmbH
has acquired all intellectual properties and inventories of the Kaelble Loader
Business.
For a transition period, Kaelble spare parts will continue to be provided by Terex
Germany, as it is currently done - NO CHANGES.
New unit production and industrial strategy will be announced at a later date.
“Kaelble brand name is well known, respected and can be a good addition to the Atlas
product line. We will consult with dealers and customers before making definitive
plans for re introduction of new models" stated the Atlas Maschinen GmbH owner and
chairman, Fil Filipov. “For now, providing Kaelble spare parts and product support will
be our top priority.”
