OKLAHOMA CITY, Feb. 4, 2005 -- On February 4, 2005, the class action lawsuit was filed in the Southern District of New York against certain officers and directors of Tower Automotive, Inc. . The complaint alleges violations of federal securities laws, Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5, including allegations of issuing a series of material misrepresentations to the market which had the effect of artificially inflating the market price. The complaint further alleges that the officers and directors of Tower Automotive, Inc. actively concealed true facts that the Company's liquidity issues were so poor that bankruptcy was imminent. The class period is from February 14, 2003 through January 21, 2005.

Plaintiff seeks to recover damages on behalf of the Class. If you are a member of the Class as described above, you may move the Court no later than sixty (60) days from February 4, 2005, to serve as a lead plaintiff for the Class.
