Skyjack Inc, a Linamar Company
April 25, 2008 Guelph, Ontario – Skyjack Inc., a Linamar Company (LNR:TSX) today announced
it has finalized its purchase agreement and acquired Volvo’s Material handling equipment
business based in Shippensburg, PA.

Skyjack, Inc. “Over the next several months Skyjack will continue to work closely with the
existing dealer networks with a commitment from Volvo to assist us during the transition period.”

determined site in rapid fashion, in order to bring production online in as timely a manner as
possible.
