Federal-Mogul Wins Award for Automotive Cataloging Excellence for Third Straight Year

SOUTHFIELD, Mich.--May 2, 20045, 2004--For the third consecutive year, Federal-Mogul Corporation (OTCBB:FDMLQ) has received a National Catalog Managers Association President's Award for excellence in application data maintenance and electronic parts cataloging. The award was presented during the annual NCMA conference in Orlando, Fla., earlier this month.

Federal-Mogul received the award for its continued excellence in providing accurate and timely parts data in support of its Sealed Power(R) line of automotive and light-duty engine components. The President's Award presentation was sponsored by Wrenchead, Inc., a leading supplier of electronic cataloging used by automotive parts distributors, jobbers and retailers.

"We invest in the best people and processes to ensure that Federal-Mogul brands maintain competitive advantage by providing accurate and faster electronic data across the supply chain," said Raymond King, underhood and wheel-end marketing director for Federal-Mogul. "We are obviously very pleased to see that this strategy to be first-to-counter continues to pay dividends for our organization and our aftermarket business partners."

The availability of accurate and timely product data is a vital issue for distributors and their professional customers, who often have only one chance to close a parts sale. Federal-Mogul has continued to compress the time required to deliver fully updated product data covering hundreds of thousands of part numbers across its aftermarket brands and product lines.
