CARGOTEC CORPORATION, STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE, 24 OCTOBER 2013 AT 1.00 P.M.
(EEST)

Cargotec is planning to restructure operations in Hiab business area in order to
improve profitability, to speed up the strategy implementation and to ensure
long-term competitiveness in the global markets. The planned changes would
reduce complexity and include adjustments to Hiab's sales, services and central
support organisations. Measures to improve efficiency and reduce costs will be
proposed also in other areas in Hiab to minimise overlapping in operations and
gain synergies.

According to initial estimates, the planned measures could result in the
reduction of approximately 250 employees globally, of which 45 in the
Netherlands, 35 in Sweden, 12 in Finland, and 158 in other countries.

Employee cooperation negotiations about the planned measures are already ongoing
in the Netherlands. In the rest of the countries possibly affected, the
proceedings will follow local legislation and the plans will be communicated and
negotiated locally. The planned measures could also result in changes in work
duties as well as transfers from duties to another in all personnel groups.

The planned measures are estimated to incur savings of approximately EUR 20
million and to result in estimated EUR 12 million in restructuring costs.

Cargotec employs approximately 10,000 people globally, of which 3,000 people in
Hiab.
