Energy 1 Reports on Customer Response & Demand

BOCA RATON, Fla., April 25, 2013

In March, Energy 1 started an initiative to reach out to existing customers, both introducing itself as the new owner of Master Lease and letting them know that new offerings were planned.  This gave the company an opportunity to ease longtime clientele into new billing and collections procedures as well as estimating the demand for expansion within its own backyard. 

"The response has been fantastic, " said Stu Hoebel, President of Master Lease.  "More than 15% of our own customer base has made inquiries about updating or upgrading their equipment, and we're getting new inquiries every day.  That's huge."

The company is currently preparing a Form-10 filing so that it can move to a higher trading tier and open itself for advanced financing options to meet current customer demand and growth beyond.
