---------------------------------------------------------------------------

SAF-HOLLAND and its banks are close to completing negotiations on securing
the Company's long-term financing. In order to fully complete the
negotiations and to allow the consortium banks and committees adequate time
to finalize details on the points  being negotiated, a further extension of
the forbearance or standstill agreement to November 25, 2009 has been
agreed. The new financing agreement aims to put the Company on a solid
financial footing over the long term and create sufficient financial
flexibility for the operative restructuring of the Company, including 
anticipated growth. At this point in the  negotiations, transferring the
operating business to a trustee is no longer a requirement for the securing
of financing.
