Merger Agreement

Under the terms of the agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies, REV Group shareholders will receive, for each REV Group share, 0.9809 of a share of the combined company and $8.71 in cash ($425 million in total). Upon closing, Terex shareholders will own approximately 58%, while REV Group shareholders will own approximately 42%, of the combined company's fully diluted shares on a pro forma basis. Following the close, the combined company will continue to be traded on the NYSE under the symbol TEX.

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Measures

Terex and REV Group report their financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, Terex and REV Group management believe that the evaluation of the combined company's ongoing operating results may be enhanced by a presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income or net loss before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and income taxes, as adjusted for certain non-recurring, one-time and other adjustments which Terex and REV Group believe are not indicative of underlying operating performance.

Terex and REV Group believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA provides additional meaningful methods of evaluating certain aspects of the combined company's operating performance from period to period on a basis that may not be otherwise apparent under GAAP when used in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP measures.
