Hawaii Army National Guard Deploys USA Technologies' EnergyMiser(R).

U.S. Department of Defense Leads in Drive to Lower Energy Consumption and Cost

MALVERN, Pa. -- The Hawaii Army National Guard is installing USA Technologies' (OTC Bulletin Board:USAT) EnergyMiser energy conservation technology to help lower energy consumption and costs and reduce C02 emission.

USA Technologies reported today that the National Guard in Honolulu was installing VendingMiser on vending machines across its bases in Hawaii.

The Army National Guard joins the Pearl Harbor Navy base and Hickham Air Force base who converted their vending machines several years ago. The sale also comes after USA Technologies recently sold VendingMiser devices to Fort Hood Army Garrison in Texas, the biggest military defense force base in America.

"The Hawaii National Guard, like other U.S. military bases worldwide, is doing everything possible to lower energy consumption and cost by responding to the President's call to conserve energy, and install energy conservation technology. With this recent install in Hawaii, EnergyMiser products are now in more than 200 government facilities in the U.S. and abroad," said Wendy Jenkins, Vice President of Marketing, USA Technologies.

Other EnergyMiser installs recently completed and underway include the Adjutant General's Department in Texas, the Texas Air National Guard, Burnsville Air Force Base, Florida, the Navy Exchange Service Command, the Naval Base Coronado and San Clement Island base, California.

The Company is also in final negotiations with the U.S. Navy for further base installs in the U.S., as well as installs in federal, state and local government buildings, and recently completed installs in U.S. Coast Guard bases in California and Hawaii.

USA Technologies confirms that the U.S. Military continues to be one of its most prolific energy conservation customers with installs at army, navy and air force bases throughout America and the Pacific, including Okinawa and Japan.

"With America paying a high price for energy, military bases nationwide are taking a lead by installing American designed energy conservation technology to lower energy cost and reduce the nation's dependence on foreign oil," said Ms. Jenkins.

America's military bases are installing USA Technologies' full range of EnergyMiser products including the VendingMiser[R], CoolerMiser[TM] and SnackMiser[TM], which reduce energy consumption by up to 46 percent. Vending machines and coolers cost an estimated $300-$400 a year to operate. The Company estimates purchases of its EnergyMiser products by the U.S. Military will save the federal sector millions of dollars in electricity costs annually.

Much of the technology is being purchased through the General Services Administration (GSA) Advantage shopping system, the Federal Government's purchasing department. The system enables federal and state government agencies and the military to purchase directly from approved contractors and suppliers at pre-approved prices. Earlier this year the GSA Services Center in Tampa, Florida, installed EnergyMiser on vending machines in its offices.
