Press Release Summary: Royal Coachman Worldwide announces Green Ride Global
Membership, GHG emission reductions and environmental sustainability goals

Press Release Body: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

September 15th, 2008; Denville, NJ. – Royal Coachman Worldwide
(www.royalcoachman.com) has embarked on a comprehensive environmental sustainability
program to reduce the environmental footprint of all aspects of their business,
including “the greening” of their executive ground transportation fleet. Using the
services of Green Ride Global – a North American firm which provides environmental
sustainability programs for the transportation industry – Royal Coachman Worldwide
has designed a carbon reduction strategy aimed at achieving a greenhouse gas (GHG)
emission reduction of 20 percent over the next 5 to 10 years through fuel
efficiency, the transition to new technologies, reduced electricity use, waste
diversion, recycling programs, and employee education.

With increased environmental awareness and concerns around climate change on the
rise, Royal Coachman has implemented an environmental management system that is ISO
14001 compliant and considered the high-road among environmentalists. “What some
companies are calling a ‘green fleet’ merely consists of parking a few hybrids on
their lot,” says Justin Raymond, President and CEO of Green Ride Global. “However,
what Royal Coachman is doing is really addressing climate change by transforming
their business accordingly and reducing their emissions at source.”

Many of Royal Coachman’s clients have committed to reducing their own GHG emissions.
“Achieving environmental sustainability is everybody’s responsibility”, says Amy
Birnbaum, CEO of Royal Coachman Worldwide. “More and more corporations are
requiring their ground transportation providers to measure and reduce their carbon
footprint.” By virtue of selecting Royal Coachman’s services, clients are
effectively reducing their own indirect emissions associated with their ground
transportation use.

“Our clients have their own environmental commitments in place and are building
supply chains and choosing service providers that reflect the environmental shift in
corporate values,” says Jon Epstein, President of Royal Coachman Worldwide. “We are
proud to fill their need for environmentally sustainable ground transportation.”
