Empower Technologies™ Adds Three More Manufacturers Representative Agencies in U.S. Richmond, British Columbia – June 27, 2007 - Empower Technologies Corporation (“Empower”) (TSX.V: EPT) is pleased to announce the appointment of three new sales representative agencies: Engineering Solutions – West (ES-West), Racor Systems, and Radiation Electronics. ES-West has a sales territory that covers northern California , Northern Nevada and Hawaii ; Racor Systems is responsible for sales in Texas , Oklahoma , Louisiana and Arkansas ; while Radiation Electronics territory extends to metropolitan New York , New Jersey and lower Connecticut . With this announcement, it brings the total number of manufacturers representatives to five and the sales territories that now cover most of the major technology markets in the United States of America . The Company believes this will have a positive impact to expand the Company's revenue and customer base. It is expected that the addition of these three field sales companies will greatly increase the visibility of Empower Technology products in the embedded market within these very strategically important territories. “We are understandably excited because these are well established sales agencies, with long and time proven track records of success selling into the embedded computer OEM market” said Paul Leung , Empower President and CEO. He added “with their established customer base, these representative firms will allow us to do deep market penetration both quickly and effectively. In fact, they were bringing us opportunities we would have never otherwise known about before the representative agreements were fully executed.” He also noted that each of the five sales agencies they have contracted with so far have one thing in common besides synergistic product lines and a record of success- they each realized that the fastest growing segment of the entire embedded market is mobile and portable devices, which is the segment Empower addresses most specifically - whether it be commercial/industrial, consumer, or government/military applications.
