VALLEY CITY, OH -- (Marketwire) -- 09/02/10 -- Shiloh Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: SHLO) today announced the completion of the Fifth Amendment Agreement ("Fifth Amendment") of the Company's Credit and Security Agreement with a syndication of lenders led by PNC Bank National Association, successor to National City Bank, as co-lead arranger, sole book runner and administrative agent, and The Privatebank and Trust Company, as co-lead arranger and syndication agent. The Fifth Amendment provides the Company with a currently available revolving line of credit of $80,000,000. The line of credit matures in July 2012.

It also provides availability of funds for certain acquisition opportunities and other matters.

Zampetis, President and CEO of Shiloh, stated, "Our recent positive financial performance driven by our focus on lowering the cost structure and generating positive cash flow has enabled us to execute this Amendment. The financial flexibility and liquidity provided by the Amendment will support operating activities through the term of the Amendment and it creates the ability to explore certain other strategic opportunities."
