                        Report of Independent Accountants


To the Participants and Administrator of
CMI Corporation Employees' Tax Savings Thrift Plan



In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of CMI Corporation Employees' Tax Savings Thrift Plan (the "Plan") at December
31, 2001 and 2000, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
year ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule of Assets (Held
at End of Year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information
required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This
supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The
supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

CMI Corporation Employees'
Tax Savings Thrift Plan

Notes to Financial Statements
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.       Description of the Plan

         The following description of the Plan is provided for general
         information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan
         Agreement for a complete description of the provisions of the Plan.

         General
         The CMI Corporation Employees' Tax Savings Thrift Plan (the "Plan"), a
         defined contribution plan, is available to any employee who was a
         participant of the CMI Employees' Retirement Plan at the date of
         termination of that plan or any full-time employee on the Plan's entry
         dates, which are the first day of January and July, following the
         employee's employment commencement date. Employees covered by a
         collective bargaining agreement other than the Load King collective
         bargaining agreement are excluded from participation in the Plan. The
         Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
         Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

         Participant Accounts

         A separate account is maintained for each participant.  In addition to
         participant contributions,  each participant's account may be credited
         with CMI  Corporation's  (the  "Employer" or  "Company")  matching and
         profit-sharing   contributions.   Investment  income  and  expense  is
         allocated  to  each  participant  by  investment  fund  based  on that
         participant's  share of the Plan's total fund investment.  The benefit
         to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided
         from the vested portion of the participant's account.

         Contributions
         Participants may contribute to the Plan through payroll deductions from
         1% to 17% of their compensation on a pre-tax basis, subject to various
         limits established in the Internal Revenue Code. Employer contributions
         are based on a percentage of employee contribution amounts and were
         determined prior to the end of each plan year at the discretion of the
         Retirement Committee of the Board of Directors of CMI Corporation.
         Employer contributions may be made under two options; matching
         contributions and profit sharing contributions. The employer matched
         15% of each participant's contribution in 2001. No contributions were
         made under the profit sharing option during 2001. Employer
         contributions, under either option, are not required for any plan year
         and are limited to the maximum amount established in the Internal
         Revenue Code.

         Vesting
         Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus
         earnings thereon. Employer contributions and earnings thereon are
         immediately vested for participants who entered the Plan prior to April
         1, 1995. Vesting of employer contributions (matching and
         profit-sharing) and earnings thereon for participants entering the Plan
         subsequent to April 1, 1995 are based on years of continuous service.
         Vesting of employer matching and profit-sharing contributions begins
         after three years of credited service with full vesting occurring after
         seven years of credited service.

         Investment Options
         Participants can direct contributions into a Company common stock fund
         account maintained by Bank of Oklahoma and certain mutual funds as
         listed in the supplemental schedule. Participants can also transfer
         investments among these investment options.

Notes to Financial Statements
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
         Benefit Payments and Distributions
         Upon retirement at normal retirement age, disability as defined by the
         Plan or death of a participant, the participant or designated
         beneficiary is fully vested with respect to the entire amount allocated
         to the participant's account. Participants or the designated
         beneficiary may elect to receive distributions in a lump-sum or
         substantially equal payments in monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or
         annual installments including interest thereon. For termination of
         services due to other reasons, participants may receive the value of
         the vested interest in their account as a lump-sum distribution.

         Loans to Participants
         Participants may borrow against the vested portion of their account
         balances subject to certain limitations, as defined by the Plan. Loans
         bear interest at a fixed rate of prime plus 1% and are subject to other
         terms as described in the Plan. Loan repayment periods generally range
         from 1 to 5 years with certain exceptions.

         Forfeitures
         Forfeitures of Employer contributions are first used to reduce the
         Plan's ordinary and necessary administrative expenses for the plan year
         and then to reduce Employer contributions. Forfeitures of nonvested
         amounts for the year ended December 31, 2001 were $49,623.

         Plan Termination
         CMI Corporation may terminate or amend the Plan at any time, subject to
         provisions set forth in ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code. In the
         event of Plan termination or permanent discontinuance of employer
         contributions, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts
         as of the effective date of complete termination of the Plan or
         permanent discontinuance of employer contributions. The assets of the
         Plan shall not be paid to the Employer at any time, except that, after
         the satisfaction of all liabilities under the Plan, any assets
         remaining may be paid to the Employer, unless otherwise provided by
         law.

2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

         Basis of Accounting
         The Plan's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of
         accounting.

         Use of Estimates
         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
         principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
         management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
         amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
         and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
         reported amounts of additions to and deductions from net assets during
         the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

         Investment Valuation
         Stock fund investments are valued at fair market value as determined by
         the Bank of Oklahoma (the "Trustee") based on quoted market values of
         the underlying assets at December 31. Mutual fund investments are
         valued at net asset value based on fair market at December 31 as
         determined by the respective mutual fund company. The cost of

CMI Corporation Employees'
Tax Savings Thrift Plan

Notes to Financial Statements
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
         securities sold is based on the average cost of all such securities
         held at the time of sale. Investments in registered investment
         companies traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the
         latest reported sales price on the last business day of the period. If
         no sale has taken place, the securities are valued at the last bid
         price. If no bid price has been reported, or if no exchange quotation
         is available, the securities are valued at the quotation obtained from
         a reputable broker. Interest income is recorded when earned and
         dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Investment
         transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. The loans to
         participants are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

         Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest
         rate, market, and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with
         certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to
         changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least
         reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term could
         materially affect the amounts reported in the Statement of Net Assets
         Available for Benefits.

         Payment of Benefits
         Benefits are recorded when paid. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000 net
         assets available for benefits included approximately $0 and $24,000,
         respectively, for distribution to participants who elected to withdraw
         plan benefits that were not distributed prior to the respective plan
         year end.

         Administrative Expenses
         All investment related costs and costs incurred related to maintaining
         Plan records are paid by the Plan.

3.       Investments

         The following presents investments that represent 5 percent or more of
         the Plan's net assets at December 31, 2001 and 2000:

         During 2001, the Plan's investments (including gains and losses on
         investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year)

4.       Tax Status

         The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on October 28, 1992,
         in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then
         designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the
         Internal Revenue Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the
         determination letter. However, the plan administrator and the Plan's
         tax counsel believe that the Plan is currently designed and being
         operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal
         Revenue Code.

5.       Transactions with Parties-In-Interest

         During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Plan bought, sold and held
         units of participation in separate accounts maintained by the Bank of
         Oklahoma, the Plan trustee. These transactions, as well as loans to
         participants, are allowable party-in-interest transactions under
         Section 408(b)(8) of the ERISA regulations.

6.       Acquisition by Terex Corporation

         On October 1, 2001, CMI Corporation was acquired by Terex Corporation
         of Westport, CT. As a result of the acquisition, all CMI Corporation
         common stock under this plan was exchanged for Terex Corporation common
         shares. No gain or loss was recorded as a result of the acquisition and
         all subsequent purchases and sales in the Plan's Company stock
         investment account are to be transacted in Terex Corporation common
         shares.
