    IdleAir 2567 Prime Way, Suite 101 Knoxville, TN 37918 (865) 232-1700 NEWS RELEASE For immediate release March 27, 2015 Contact: Jeff Maurer, (865) 232-1700 IdleAir Press Release at the 2015 Mid-America Trucking Show LOUISVILLE, KY: Convoy Solutions, LLC celebrated its fifth anniversary operating as IdleAir since February 2010. Since resuscitating IdleAir from the ashes of a formerly terminated business, we have realized a number of milestones: IdleAir preserved a proprietary remotely managed “virtual motel” network with over 1,000 active rooms and more than 6,000 parking spaces of intact expansion capacity. The durable high voltage infrastructure we rescued had an original cost of more than $150mm and in many cases has significantly exceeded its design life with very few mechanical challenges. Since 2011 we have doubled our footprint of locations to more than 40 truckstops and fleet terminals. This month we opened the Latta, SC Flying J, which is our second solar-PV powered truckstop. We’ve also just completed construction of our first of several planned dedicated IdleAir terminals with Covenant Transport at their Headquarters and national training facility in Chattanooga, TN. IdleAir broke ground this week in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico with our first-ever operation outside of the USA with EGOBA Transportadora. We are proud to be exporting our home grown American fuel saving, carbon mitigating technology to customers anywhere in the world that IdleAir can be most impactful and profitable. We successfully launched discount pricing bundles this past year, like the now popular “40 hour Reset Special” and our 10-hour “ConvoyTV+Power™ Special”.
