ELKHART, Ind., Feb 25, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- COA | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Coachmen Industries, Inc. (NYSE: COA | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) and ARBOC Mobility ("ARBOC") today announced that ARBOC has recently been awarded multiple contracts for its low floor buses, further confirming the market acceptance of this innovative new product line.

February, 19, 2009 ARBOC was awarded a portion of the Houston/Galveston Area Council contract for the 2009-2010 calendar years. This contract will be administered by National Bus Sales & Leasing of Justin, TX, and also has provisions allowing unlimited purchases by any transit agency across the country.

February 10, 2009 Hoglund Bus Company of Monticello, MN along with ARBOC Mobility was awarded an addendum to the State of Minnesota contract to include its Spirit of Mobility Bus product line. This addendum allows unlimited purchases by any transit agency in Minnesota.

January 26, 2009 the Holland Bus Company and ARBOC Mobility were awarded a contract for low floor buses from Cadillac/Wexford Transit Authority. This contract allows for "add-on" purchases allowing other transit agencies in the State of Michigan to make purchases under the contract.

Orders under the above contracts are currently being received and ARBOC Mobility already has a firm order backlog. Production is ramping up at the new 114,000 square foot facility in Middlebury, Indiana.

The Spirit of Mobility is the first low floor mid size bus to provide easy entry without the need for steps or cumbersome wheelchair lifts, and without the use of a drop box in the driveline. Mobility challenged passengers enter through the same 39" wide door as other passengers with the use of either the standard manual ramp or a power ramp up to 56" long.
