Motion Industries purchase of Canadian distributor

Publisher: Time:2010.03.05

Motion Industries said it has finalized a deal to purchase the North American assets of a

Canadian bearing and power transmission distributor.

Terms of the acquisition of BC Bearing Engineering Ltd. and US Bearings & Things were not

disclosed in a news release, but Motion's parent company, Genuine Parts Co., said the

transaction would generate annual revenues of about $150 million by expanding its footprint

further into Canada and the northwestern United States.

Motion said the newly acquired company brings with it a broad customer base including

forestry, pulp and paper, mining, agriculture, oil and gas, petrochemicals, food

processing, transportation, electronics and wind energy customers.

BC Bearing Engineers Ltd. and US Bearings & Things are family owned bearing and power

transmission distributors based in Vancouver with 47 locations throughout western Canada

and the northwestern U.S.

Motion is based in Birmingham and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genuine Parts Co. (NYSE:

GPC). It distributes industrial replacement parts throughout the United States and Canada.
