Solomon Announces Appeal Venue
DANBURY, Conn., April 4, 2008 - Solomon Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:SOLM),today announced the location of the oral arguments in its appeal of the decision by the International Trade Commission (ITC) alleging patent infringement by Toyota Motor Corporation, and certain of its affiliates. The case will be heard at the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC), Court Room 402, 717 Madison Place, N.W. Washington D.C. on April 11, 2008 at 10:00 AM. Solomon's briefs in the case are available for review on Solomon's website. The hearing is open to the public.

The CAFC is the primary court in the United States that hears appeals of patent cases from the lower district courts and from the ITC.

Peter W. DeVecchis, President of Solomon's Motive Power Division commented earlier, "As we continue to prosecute our appeal of the Toyota matter we are pleased that the case has been scheduled for oral argument in an expedient fashion. As previously stated, we believe that the critical issues in the case rely substantially on points of law that have been well settled by this court in the past. We also believe that CAFC's review of this case, in the context of its own precedents, is helpful to Solomon in properly framing the fundamental issue in the case. We are confident that the appeal to the CAFC not only provides the best forum by which to establish the proper interpretation of our patent claims but also gives us a broad set of options to pursue full and fair remedies against Toyota, and other potential infringers, in the future. While our business model does not depend on the outcome of this case, we intend to vigorously pursue all infringements of our intellectual property."

As previously announced, Solomon brought suit against Toyota Motor Corporation, Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A. Inc. and Toyota Motor Manufacturing North America in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division, on September 12, 2005, claiming infringement of Solomon's U.S. Patent Number 5,067,932, primarily relating to Toyota's use of the Hybrid Synergy Drive technology in its Prius and Highlander Hybrid vehicles. On January 11, 2006, Solomon filed an additional complaint against Toyota with the ITC seeking to exclude importation of the infringing technology. The action against Toyota and its affiliates in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division, has been stayed pending resolution of the ITC action.
