>>> Bombardier Aerospace announced today that it has signed a memorandum of
>>> understanding (MOU) with the Government of the Kingdom of Morocco for the
>>> establishment of a manufacturing facility in Morocco. The exact site
>>> location will be announced at a later date. Bombardier Aerospace intends
>>> to
>>> invest approximately $200 million US in equipment, buildings and start-up

>>> Scheduled to be implemented in phases starting in 2012, Bombardier
>>> Aerospace?s new Moroccan facility will initially include sub-assembly
>>> capabilities for simple structures. The new facility is scheduled to
>>> start
>>> manufacturing in 2013. Details on the type of components to be

>>> will be finalized in the coming months.
>>> By the end of 2020, employment at the Morocco facility is expected to

>>> 850 skilled and trained workers. Bombardier Aerospace anticipates that
>>> there
>>> will be no impact on its current workforce level at other sites as a
>>> result
>>> of this announcement.
>>> ?Globalization of our industry has opened up new markets and new
>>> opportunities,? said Guy C. Hachey, President and Chief Operating
>>> Officer,
>>> Bombardier Aerospace. ?We have progressively extended our business
>>> presence
>>> around the world and we are continuing today to better serve our
>>> international customers.?
>>> ?Bombardier Aerospace is committed to a long-term relationship with the
>>> Moroccan Government to develop a world-class aerospace industry in the
>>> country,? added Mr. Hachey. ?By establishing its own fully integrated
>>> manufacturing facility in Morocco, Bombardier Aerospace will serve as a
>>> catalyst for the aerospace industry in the country and will look for
>>> opportunities to share some of its knowledge and complex manufacturing
>>> processes.?
>>> Bombardier Aerospace chose Morocco for a number of reasons:
>>> internationally
>>> competitive manufacturing costs, low shipping and transportation costs,
>>> proximity to Europe, and the commitment by the Moroccan Government to the
>>> development of the aerospace industry.
>>> The announcement of this new manufacturing facility in Morocco was made
>>> during the Dubai Airshow 2011, where Bombardier is currently showcasing
>>> its
>>> broad spectrum of innovative products, technical expertise, and superior
>>> customer support and aircraft maintenance services. Held in the United
>>> Arab
>>> Emirates, the Dubai Airshow, the world?s third largest airshow, places an
