Franchise Capital Corporation Addresses Potential Future Recapitalization in Management Statement

Franchise Capital Corporation (PINKSHEETS: FCCN), which recently closed its acquisition of Aero Exhaust, Inc., a world leader in performance exhaust airflow technology and NASCAR Performance Partner, today issued a brief statement from management addressing language that was included in the share exchange agreement between Aero Exhaust and Franchise Capital regarding a potential future reverse split.

"The language included in the share exchange agreement was drafted long before the stock structure of the post-acquisition public company was known," stated Bryan Hunsaker, chief executive officer of Franchise Capital and Aero Exhaust. "It allowed for the fact that there might have been an insufficient number of shares to consummate the share exchange transaction, so language was included that indicated that management intended to pursue a reverse stock split soon after the acquisition closed. Given the current structure of the company, management has no plans to pursue a reverse stock split in the foreseeable future.

"Shareholder value will continue to be a priority for the company as we work to increase distribution of Aero Exhaust products and execute our expansion strategy, which includes the acquisition of Dr. Gas, Inc.," he added.

The acquisition of Dr. Gas, Inc. is expected to provide the company with multiple benefits due to its significant synergies with the operations of Aero Exhaust. Once the planned acquisition is consummated, Dr. Gas will contribute to increased revenues and asset valuation for Aero. Possibly even more significant for the business of Aero itself is that Dr. Gas, Inc. is expected to contribute to the growth of Aero through the fabrication of components for Aero products, including recently launched full exhaust systems. Dr. Gas, Inc.'s fabricating capabilities are expected to increase the availability of Aero's new line of full turbo and cat-back systems diesel exhaust systems, referred to in marketing documents as "kits," which include all parts from the catalytic converter, turbo charger or muffler back to the tailpipe. Improved supply will help Aero to meet the demand for its products in the automotive supply market.

Dr. Gas Exhaust Systems produces performance exhaust Xscream® crossover, y-pipe, oval tubing performance exhaust, and h-pipe systems that have changed the performance exhaust sound of NASCAR, IROC, drag racing, and pro-street. Dr. Gas designed and patented the revolutionary Spin Tech racing mufflers. Many standard and custom sizes of mandrel bends and oval tubing are the absolute best for high performance exhaust and ground clearance applications. The company has performance exhaust parts for car, truck, RV, motorcycle, marine, aircraft and industrial applications.

At its first NASCAR race, Dr. Gas shocked the sport with its new performance exhaust sound and added power on Sterling Marlin's winning 1995 Daytona 500 racecar. Many of its patented NASCAR performance exhaust systems can be used in street rod performance exhaust applications. For more information on Dr. Gas, Inc., please visit http://www.drgas.com.
