CARGOTEC CORPORATION, STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE, 4 OCTOBER 2011 AT 8 A.M. (EEST)

Cargotec has been chosen as the preferred partner to supply 40 Kalmar automatic
stacking cranes with related technology and 28 Kalmar shuttle carriers to DP
World's deepsea container port London Gateway. Cargotec and DP World have signed
a cooperation agreement and aim to finalise the contract shortly. The parties
have agreed not to disclose the value of the intended contract however, a
typical value of this size of a project is around EUR 100-150 million depending
on the scope of the delivery."We are proud to be chosen as the partner in the heart of this landmark project
and we are committed to London Gateway's success. With this cooperation, we are
strengthening our position as a leader in the field of port automation," says
Harald de Graaf, Executive Vice President, EMEA.

Cargotec's strategy is to focus on customers and to invest in attractive
customer segments. In June this year Cargotec announced the opening of its
Technology and Competence Centre in Singapore which, in cooperation with the
Technology and Competence Centre in Tampere, Finland, focuses on developing
automation systems. Cargotec is building the world's largest port automation
test area to Tampere to facilitate the testing and simulation of various
solutions, including automated equipment and fleets, navigation systems and
remote steering and control."Since 1990, we have steadily developed our track record in the field of
automation in automatic stacking crane systems and in horizontal transportation.
We are determined to lead the way in automation," continues Harald de Graaf.

To support its customer focused strategy, Cargotec acquired terminal operating
systems provider Navis earlier this year. Together, Cargotec and Navis will be
able to offer solutions to ports. Cargotec also unveiled plans to establish a
joint venture with Jiangsu Rainbow Heavy Industries Co Ltd in China to provide
leading heavy crane solutions globally.
