<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><I>Core Molding Technologies believes that the following factors, among others, could affect its
future performance and cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by
forward-looking statements made in this press release: business conditions in the plastics,
transportation, watercraft and commercial product industries; general economic conditions in the
markets, sometimes driven by federal and state regulations (including engine emission regulations),
in which Core Molding Technologies operates; dependence upon two major customers as the primary
source of Core Molding Technologies&#146; sales revenues; recent efforts of Core Molding Technologies to
expand its customer base; failure of Core Molding Technologies&#146; suppliers to perform their
contractual obligations; the availability of raw materials; inflationary pressures; new
technologies; competitive and regulatory matters; labor relations; the loss or inability of Core
Molding Technologies to attract and retain key personnel; compliance changes to federal, state and
local environmental laws and regulations; the availability of capital; the ability of Core Molding
Technologies to provide on-time delivery to customers, which may require additional shipping
expenses to ensure on-time delivery or otherwise result in late fees; risk of cancellation or
rescheduling of orders; management&#146;s decision to pursue new products or businesses which involve
additional costs, risks or capital expenditures; and other risks identified from time-to-time in
