Pursuant to the Amendment, the cash consideration that Terex will receive from the sale of its Material Handling and Port Solutions business (“MHPS”) was changed from $820 million to $595 million and €200 million.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 2.1 to this Form 8-K.
