CNH Parts & Service Announces Sweepstakes Winner

RACINE, Wis., - (January 23, 2009) - Tim McMichael, a foundry manager at CMC Corporation in McDonough, Ga., is the winner of the 2008 Case Construction Equipment Skid Steer Sweepstakes, the company announced today.

As the winner of the CNH Parts & Service online sweepstakes - which ran on the www.casece.com website from June 6 through November 30 - McMichael will receive a two-year lease on a new Case 420 Skid Steer, a prize valued at more than $23,000. The sweepstakes was open to anyone working in the construction industry, and McMichael's name was drawn randomly from more than 1,200 entrants.

McMichael, whose primary job duties involve maintenance, said he's excited about the opportunity to discover what Case has to offer in a skid steer.

"I'm thrilled about winning the lease on a Case 420 Skid Steer," said McMichael, who lives in Jackson, Ga., with his wife, Amanda. "The power and adaptability of the 420 should allow me to use it for a lot of different jobs."

McMichael intends to utilize the skid steer for everything from moving dirt to picking up heavy loads to other tasks related to service and construction involving large water pumps for corporations.

"We are celebrating our 40th anniversary of Case skid steers," said Eric Bippus, CNH Parts & Service Vice President of Sales & Marketing. "We're excited that Mr. McMichael will get the opportunity to join the Case skid steer family.
