Chicago-Area Resident to Win $10,000 in Shell Gasoline; Shell to Give Away Free Gas at Chicago Auto Show on Friday, February 17

MEDIA REMINDER

CHICAGO, Feb. 14 -- As Eric and Kathy of the popular "Eric & Kathy Morning Show" on WTMX-FM (101.9) have been asking listeners recently, "Where would you go if you had $10,000 in free gas?" On Friday, February 17, one lucky Chicago-area winner will be happily telling them the answer to that very question. The duo will make a public appearance to serve as masters of ceremony for the drawing of $10,000 IN SHELL GASOLINE. Twenty finalists from a sweepstakes sponsored by Shell Oil Products US and its local area Shell- branded dealers will gather at the Shell booth at the Chicago Auto Show for the chance to win free Shell gasoline. Each finalist will draw a Shell prepaid gas card, but only one will activate the gas pump in the booth signaling the card is worth $10,000.

The sweepstakes is being held to celebrate Shell involvement at the official petroleum sponsor of the 2006 Chicago Auto Show.
