Microphonics Announces that Mobil, Michelin DES,
Bridgestone/Firestone DEP, and Insurance Auto Auctions DEP Have
Approved Purchase of Microphonics Model A07 Automotive Diagnostic
System by their Service Centers and Repair Outlets

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Microphonics (OTC Bulletin Board: MRPS - news; microphonics.com) announced today that it has gained approval to sell its Model A07 Automotive Diagnostic System to the automotive service centers of Mobil Oil Co., Michelin Dealer Equipment and Services, Bridgestone/Firestone Dealer Equipment Program, and the Insurance Auto Auctions Dealer Equipment Program.

The Microphonics Model A07 Automotive Diagnostic System has been certified by Dealer Equipment Services, a division of SPX Corp. (NYSE: SPW - news) to meet the above companies' specifications as an approved diagnostic tool for use by its US service centers in repairs that involve noise or vibration problems, water or vacuum leak detection, tire integrity, as well as other problem areas. Starting in the fourth quarter of 1999, these companies will be communicating this recommendation in both their equipment catalogs and by means of quarterly promotions. Microphonics believes these recommended catalog listings will heighten awareness at the local service center level and potentially speed up the sales cycle. Taken together these companies own hundreds of service centers/repair sites in the United States.

Dealer Equipment Services, a leader in the distribution of automobile dealership specialty tools and diagnostic equipment, will be the distributor and sales agent to these companies. With these approvals plus the past approvals already announced, the Microphonics model A07 is now a priority for sales and promotion by the more than twenty-five DES field sales personnel throughout the United States who sell to these service centers and/or dealerships. Microphonics will be listed on its approved vendor list at the DES website:
dealerequipment.com

Jimmy Gayle, CEO of Microphonics comments, ''Through prior contracts with SPX and their Dealer Equipment Services division, we have been successful in marketing to the 6,000+ Ford dealerships in the US and the 9,000+ Ford dealerships in Europe. As previously released, we have gained approval to sell our diagnostic devices to the dealerships of Americ Izuzu Motors, Hyundai Motor America, Mitsubishi Motor Sales of America, and Nissan Motor Corporation USA (a total of 1,500 +dealerships in the US.) This new approval and expanded vendor relationship with DES will open many more service centers to the use of our Ultraphonic devices. We have every expectation that other automotive- related companies will follow in their approvals for sale and recommendations to their dealerships and/or repair facilities in the near future.''
