Exide Technologies to Present Updated Global Identity at Automotive Aftermarket Industry Week 2003 PRINCETON, N.J., Oct. 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Exide Technologies, (BULLETIN BOARD: EXDTQ) ( http://www.exide.com/ ), a global leader in stored electrical-energy solutions, will have a strong presence next week in Las Vegas at Automotive Aftermarket Industry Week (AAIW) 2003, the automotive industry's largest international aftermarket trade gathering. AAIW is composed of two separate but related exhibitions that run concurrently. The Aftermarket Automotive Products Expo (AAPEX) 2003, housed at the Sands Convention Center, is the largest automotive aftermarket trade show in the world, sponsored by the Automotive Aftermarket Industry Association (AAIA) and Motor Equipment & Manufacturers' Association (MEMA). The SEMA Show 2003, held at the Las Vegas Convention Center and sponsored by the Speciality Equipment Market Association (SEMA), is the premier automotive specialty products trade event. A third trade organization, the Automotive Warehouse Distributors Association (AWDA), hosts supplier/buyer meetings in conjunction with the exhibitions. A 35-member team from Exide's global Transportation Business Group will exhibit under the powerful theme It All Starts Here to accompany its presence at the event. Exide's futuristic AAPEX exhibit, located on the Automotive Parkway in space #5600 on the upper level, will feature the Company's innovation and progress in products and aftermarket services, present the impact of technological partnerships, as well as Exide's solid turnaround accomplishments as the Company prepares to emerge from Chapter 11 restructuring later this year. In addition, Exide will host a press conference to discuss significant customer wins, contract extensions with key business partners, and the status of Chapter 11 restructuring. Exide press materials also will be available at the Company's exhibit as well as in the AAPEX and SEMA press rooms. The theme will be carried further at SEMA, where the Exide exhibit, located in the Mobile Electronics section in space #20025, will feature the leading Exide Select Orbital XCD battery as well as a 1948 Chevrolet Fleetline low rider automobile. The car, the Lowrider Magazine "Bomb" of the year for 2002 and 2003, is equipped with 10 Orbital XCD batteries that power the hydraulics, audio and video systems -- showing the many uses of this technologically-advanced battery for both audio and specialty applications. "Exide's presence at AAIW 2003 is of threefold importance," said David G. Enstone, Exide Technologies President - Transportation Global Business Unit. "It positions our Company as both the partner of choice for our aftermarket customers as well as a systems solutions supplier on the forefront of technological leadership. And, it presents Exide's transformation into the unified, efficient global producer and service provider that it has become." AAIW 2003 opens in Las Vegas on November 4 and runs through November 7.
