GreenMan Technologies Subsidiary Signs Distributor Agreement

CARLISLE, IA--(Marketwire - August 3, 2010) - GreenMan Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: GMTI), announced its APG International, Inc. subsidiary ("APGI"), has entered a distributor agreement with a private company, Engineering Kinetics Limited ("EKL"), to sell and install its diesel dual fuel technology within Pakistan. The European Natural Gas Vehicle Association reports that Pakistan is the number one natural gas vehicular country in the world with over 2 million natural gas vehicles in operation. Pakistan is also reported to be the world leader in natural gas infrastructure, with 3,000 compressed natural gas ("CNG") fueling stations in operation and another 1,000 CNG fueling stations under construction.

To support the in-country product launch, APGI has upgraded three diesel test vehicles including a light-duty Shizore delivery truck, a mid-size Nissan delivery truck, and a heavy-duty turbo-charged Chinese FAW which is equivalent to a Class 8 tractor in the United States. We believe our ability to convert this diverse representation of test vehicles demonstrates the potential for the worldwide acceptance of our dual fuel conversion technology. Additionally, in the near future, APGI intends to upgrade a bus to address the fuel savings and emissions reduction that can be realized for the large number of transit busses operating within the country. 

Lyle Jensen, CEO of GreenMan, commented, "We look forward to working with the EKL Team which includes several technicians who have supported our historical stationary dual fuel installations. Despite Pakistan's leadership position in CNG vehicles and infrastructure, no one has introduced a reliable, safe, and economical CNG technology to effectively address the performance demands of medium and heavy-duty diesel trucks. Our marketing research for the country shows that out of the hundreds of thousands of eligible commercial diesel vehicles currently in use, only a few hundred have been converted to CNG. We expect favorable performance and acceptance of our CNG test vehicles and anticipate generating initial revenue later this calendar year."

EKL was formed in 1982 to provide comprehensive design, engineering, fabrication, and construction services to a variety of industries. For more information on EKL, go to www.eklonline.com.
