Epic Aircraft Welcomes New Strategic Partner

Rick Schrameck, President and CEO of high performance airplane
manufacturer Epic Aircraft, today announced a new partnership with
Indian billionaire Dr. Vijay Mallya. The deal provides Epic the
ability to accelerate the process of bringing the company's growing
line of aircraft to the certified market, as well as strengthening the
company's relationships with customers and vendors worldwide.

"Epic was really looking for a strategic partner, not just an
investor," Schrameck explained. "Dr. Mallya now has a significant
interest in our company, and we will immediately benefit from his
relationships with a variety of companies, including Airbus and Pratt
& Whitney."

Dr. Mallya owns and operates India's premiere private carrier
Kingfisher Airlines. Ever since its launch, Kingfisher Airlines has
redefined the whole experience of flying. His airline was among the
first to order the new Airbus A-380 and is one of the pan-European
aircraft manufacturer's largest customers. Dr. Mallya is also Chairman
of United Breweries Group, a multinational conglomerate of more than
sixty companies. His passions include aviation and cars. Mallya has
won races on the professional international car racing circuits.
Schrameck, who also has holds records for wins in automobile racing
and from the pylons at the Reno Air Races, acknowledges that he and
Mallya have a lot of common interests to set the stage for a great
working relationship.

Dr. Vijay Mallya commented, "I am very excited about the
phenomenal opportunities that Epic has in the industry today and this
strategic investment will pave the way for the company to embark on an
unprecedented growth trajectory."

"In fact it's a great relationship," Schrameck added. "Vijay has
already brought Airbus into the role of consultants for our
certification programs." Epic is in the advanced stages of flight
testing for the Dynasty, the 1200hp single-engine turboprop. The
company recently unveiled two new Very Light Jets, the twin-engine
Elite and the single-engine Victory. The jets will begin their
certification process immediately following certification of the
Dynasty.

Epic has recently experienced an unprecedented surge in sales,
booking more than $23 million dollars worth of orders at the Sun 'n
Fun fly-in April of this year, then selling another $40 million worth
of aircraft only 3 months later at AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
