Caterpillar ( CAT ) said Sunday it agreed to acquire Australia-based mining software company RPMGlobal Holdings.

Caterpillar ( CAT ) said it expects the deal to close in Q1, subject to RPMGlobal shareholder approval and other conditions.

Caterpillar ( CAT ) shares were up 2.7% in recent premarket activity Monday.
