Solomon Files Toyota Case Appeal
DANBURY, Conn., September 20, 2007 - Solomon Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:SOLM), announced today that it has filed an appeal of the decision of the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) regarding Solomon's claim of patent infringement against Toyota Motor Corporation, and certain of its affiliates, with the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) in Washington, DC. As a result of a complaint by Solomon filed in early 2006, the ITC ruled, on April 30, 2007, that there was no violation of Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended.

Solomon's appeal of the ITC's decision is based on the ITC's interpretation of the applicable law and previously established CAFC precedents as they relate to Solomon's '932 patent. Solomon believes that the proper application of the law in this case will result in a reversal of the ITC decision. In its appeal Solomon cites a number of well-settled points of law that Solomon believes were either ignored or misapplied by the ITC in the case.

The filing of this appeal does not affect the status of the Company's case in Federal District Court in Florida, which is stayed until the outcome of this appeal. It is expected that the appeal at the CAFC will result in oral arguments being heard sometime before June of next year and a decision being issued by the court before the end of 2008.

"We believe the ITC made serious errors in interpreting the pertinent patent law and precedents in this case and as we have reviewed the case transcripts more fully we are even more convinced that we will eventually prevail", said Gary G. Brandt, CEO of Solomon. "With the CAFC being the primary court in the United States that hears appeals of patent cases from the lower district courts and from the ITC, we expect it will pay particular attention to its previous precedents which form an important part of our appeal."

Mr. Brandt continued, "As those who have followed this case closely know, we determined in late 2005 that the ITC venue would provide a more streamlined path to resolving this matter. However, because the ITC is not a judicial court its findings are not binding on any other courts to which Solomon might bring the case in the future. We believe that the appeal to the CAFC not only provides the best forum by which to establish the proper interpretation of our patent claims, but it also gives us a broad set of options to pursue full and fair remedies against Toyota in the future."

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.
