FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Federal Signal to Expand its Specialty Vehicle Platform by Executing Agreement to Acquire Trackless Vehicles OAK BROOK, Illinois, February 23, 2023 — Federal Signal Corporation (NYSE: FSS) (the “Company”), a leader in environmental and safety solutions, today announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire substantially all the assets and operations of Trackless Vehicles Limited (“Trackless”), a leading manufacturer of multi-purpose, municipal sidewalk tractors, for initial cash consideration of C$54 million (approximately US$40 million), subject to post-closing adjustments. In addition, the transaction also includes a contingent earn-out payment of up to C$6 million. The acquisition also includes the operations of Work Equipment Limited, the exclusive Trackless dealer in Southwestern and Northern Ontario, Canada.

Trackless manufactures the industry-leading, MT Series 7 tractor (“MT7”), which uses a variety of attachments to provide year-round value to its customers. Snow and ice attachments, including de-icing solutions, plows, and snowblowers can be used by customers during winter months, while during warmer periods, other attachments can be used in a variety of applications, such as concrete/asphalt maintenance, sweeping, tree and vegetation control, and materials hauling. The interchangeable Trackless attachments can help customers to achieve carbon reduction and other environmental goals by operating a single, highly-versatile unit instead of several purpose- built vehicles. Trackless also supports the recurring aftermarket needs of its customers through a comprehensive parts offering, sales of which represent up to 20% of annual revenues. The superior design of the MT7, the breadth and depth of its attachment offerings, and a dedicated dealer network have allowed Trackless to establish a differentiated position in the industry. “The acquisition of Trackless represents a strong addition to our municipal product offerings and further bolsters our position as an industry-leading diversified manufacturer of specialized vehicles for maintenance and infrastructure markets,” said Jennifer L.
