TRIMAS CORPORATION COMPLETES REFINANCE OF CREDIT FACILITIES

Bloomfield Hills, Mich. – August 3, 2006 – TriMas Corporation announced today that it has closed on the previously announced refinancing of its existing $410.0 million senior secured credit facilities. Proceeds from the amended and restated credit facilities will be used to refinance all outstanding amounts under the existing senior credit facilities and for general corporate purposes.

The amended and restated credit facility provides for: (a) a $260.0 million term loan facility maturing in December 2013; (b) up to a $90.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility and a $60.0 million deposit-linked supplemental revolving credit facility, which mature in December 2011; and (c) additional incremental term loans not to exceed $100.0 million under certain circumstances.

“This improvement to our credit facilities allows us to extend maturities and substantially increase our company’s liquidity,” said E.R. “Skip” Autry, Chief Financial Officer of TriMas Corporation. “The new credit facilities will reduce the company’s borrowing costs and enhance the company’s financial and operational flexibility going forward.”

JP Morgan Chase Bank NA served as Administrative and Collateral Agent of the new agreement, while Comerica Bank acted as Syndication Agent.
