Cargotec - Changes in company's own shares

Cargotec contemplates sale of own shares held in treasury directed to selected qualified investors


CARGOTEC CORPORATION, STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE, 3 DECEMBER 2013, AT 6.30 PM EET

NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO
THE UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, HONG KONG OR JAPAN.

Cargotec Corporation announces its intention to offer up to 2,959,487 Cargotec
class B shares held in treasury by the company to a limited number of selected
domestic and international qualified investors in an accelerated book-built
offering deviating from the shareholders' pre-emptive subscription right. The
shares to be offered correspond to approximately 5.40 percent of the class B
shares and 4.60 percent of all the shares and 1.97 percent of all voting rights
in the company immediately prior to the completion of the share issue and would
correspond to approximately 1.97 percent of all voting rights in the company
following the completion of the share issue.

The proceeds from the share issue are intended for refinancing of existing debt
of Cargotec and restrengthening the balance sheet following the completed and
pending acquisitions in Cargotec's MacGregor business area.

The share issue will be based on an accelerated book-building process in which
selected qualified institutional investors may submit subscription commitments
for the shares. In this accelerated book-building process, the share
subscription price will be determined on the basis of the subscription
commitments received. The book-building will commence immediately and is
expected to end on 4 December 2013 at the latest. Cargotec's Board of Directors
shall make the decision on the share issue, including the number of shares to be
re-issued and the subscription price of the shares, immediately after the close
of the book-building process. The result of the share issue will be published on
or about 4 December 2013.

The share issue is based on the authorisation granted to the Board of Directors
by Annual General Meeting held on 19 March 2012. The Annual General Meeting
authorised the Board of Directors to decide on issuance of a maximum of
6,400,000 treasury shares, of which no more than 952,000 are class A shares and
5,448,000 are class B shares, in one or more lots. The authorisation shall
remain in effect for a period of five years from the date of decision of the
Annual General Meeting.

Nordea Markets is acting as the Lead Manager and Sole Bookrunner in the share
issue.
