CHICAGO and STOCKHOLM, January 25, 2012 - PurePOWER Technologies LLC, a Navistar
Company, has begun production of Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI) cylinder blocks
at its Indianapolis, Indiana casting facility.  The heavy-duty CGI cylinder
blocks are produced using the SinterCast process control technology.

The SinterCast System 3000 process control system has been configured at the
PurePOWER Technologies Indianapolis casting facility to provide SinterCast's
measure-and-correct feed forward control of the CGI production process, along
with automated feedback control of the base treatment.  The System 3000 also
logs data from the melting, moulding and shake-out operations to provide
enhanced quality control and traceability of the casting process.

The technology agreement between PurePOWER Technologies and SinterCast
encompasses the PurePOWER Technologies casting facilities located in
Indianapolis, Indiana and Waukesha, Wisconsin, with PurePOWER Technologies
reserving the right to install additional SinterCast control systems on the two
casting lines in Waukesha.

Together, the PurePOWER Technologies casting facilities in Indianapolis and
Waukesha, provide capability for high volume CGI production for passenger
vehicle applications and for commercial vehicle cylinder blocks and heads with
engine displacements as large as 15 litres.

"Building on more than ten years of CGI product development and production
experience within Navistar, Inc., PurePOWER Technologies has the experience, the
facilities and the team to be a world-class provider of high quality CGI engine
components to the passenger vehicle and commercial vehicle industries" said Rick
Bacon, Director, PurePOWER Technologies Metalcastings, "We have brought the
Indianapolis casting facility on-stream in record time to meet the increased
demand for heavy-duty CGI blocks. We now look forward to bringing our CGI design
and manufacturing experience to OEMs around the world as demand grows for GCI
head and block casting technology using SinterCast process technology."

"The commitment by PurePOWER Technologies to install CGI capability further
demonstrates the growing demand for CGI engine components, particularly in the
commercial vehicle sector" said Dr Steve Dawson, President & CEO, SinterCast.
 "The PurePOWER Technologies installation provides high volume CGI cylinder
block and head production capability in the U.S. market.  The global footprint
of Pure Power Technologies and its parent company, Navistar, improves our
combined ability to support the growing demand for CGI product development and
production."
