SARS Set to Gain Advanced Technology for Remote Monitoring of Liquefied Petroleum Gas

SEATTLE -- SARS Corp. (OTCBB:SARO) ("SARS"), a leading provider of remote asset management and telematics solutions, today announced that they have entered into a material definitive agreement with Andronics Ltd. ("Andronics"). This acquisition is part of SARS' commitment to deliver real-time business intelligence about fixed and mobile assets located anywhere in the world. Andronics develops two-way data solutions for monitoring and managing remote assets, specifically vehicles and liquefied petroleum gas ("LPG") tanks.

"Andronics has developed highly sophisticated technology for the remote monitoring of propane and butane gas tank levels via satellite," said Clayton Shelver, CEO of SARS. "The energy industry is a key opportunity for SARS, and this acquisition is a fundamental part of our strategy. We anticipate that this technology will have a significant impact on our growth in 2008."

Andronics' UtilityEye LPG system monitors remote LPG tanks, both above and below ground, identifies fuel levels and sends utility notifications when a tank is filled and/or transmits alarms when fuel levels drop to a predetermined level. UtilityEye LPG is equipped with a battery power supply, and information is communicated to the utility via Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites, making monitoring reliable in remote locations.

In addition to the UtilityEye LPG system, Andronics develops LEOCATE, a solution that uses General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) technology to track and monitor the movement and location of vehicles. With LEOCATE, fleet managers receive automated email reports including data such as engine idle time, distance traveled, number of stops, hours worked and fleet utilization.
