About Energy & Engine Technology Corporation (EENT)

EENT (http://www.eent.net/ ), headquartered in Plano, Texas, develops and markets auxiliary power generators for the long haul trucking industry. The Company's common stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "EENT". The Company's flagship product, the AXP 1000, is an idle-reduction technology device, designed for new and retrofit installation on semi truck tractors, that provides power generation without requiring the operation of the truck's engine. Powered by an EPA-approved and CARB-certified engine, the AXP 1000 maintains the truck's battery power while delivering electricity for air conditioning, heating, and the operation of televisions, appliances and other devices, to the sleeper cab, thereby reducing fuel consumption, air/noise pollution and long-term truck maintenance costs. (Instead of the 10-15 gallons of diesel fuel consumed through idling each day, the AXP 1000 consumes approximately 1 gallon of diesel fuel in an equivalent amount of time). The Company is targeting a significant market opportunity created by governmental mandates that limit the aggregate amount of idling time available to long haul truckers. Management believes that Federal and State regulations, along with new and more stringent legislation that became effective in January 2004, have paved the way for a $2.5 billion industry. There are an estimated 500,000 or more Class 8 sleeper trucks currently operating in the U.S., with over 80,000 new Class 8 trucks being produced each year. Management believes that even moderate penetration of the market for anti-idling devices could result in significant sales and earnings for the Company. Anticipated metrics on unit sales suggest that for each 1,000 AXP 1000 units sold (at $5,000 each), the Company should generate gross revenue of approximately $5,000,000.
