Electric Moto Corp. Announces Resignation of CEO Ely Schless

Creates Chief Technology Consultant Position

ASHLAND, Ore., July 11, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Electric Moto Corp., Inc. , a U.S.-based designer, manufacturer and retailer of highly efficient electric battery-powered motorcycles, scooters and ATVs, today announced the resignation of Ely Schless as Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately.

In conjunction with his resignation as CEO, Mr. Schless has been named Chief Technology Consultant (CTC) of Electric Moto. The new position was created specifically to optimally capitalize on his unique capabilities surrounding the development of 2nd and 3rd generation electric vehicles, which is highlighted by his successful design of the company's first-generation "Blade" motor bike.

In addition, the company's board of directors announced the creation of an Interim Management Team of corporate personnel designed to (a) launch an immediate executive search for a new CEO, and (b) continue to pursue initiatives outlined by the firm's investment bankers surrounding the establishment of a new production facility and the development of distribution channels throughout Central and South America and the Caribbean.

Management is also pleased to announce that several "Blade XT" demo bikes have recently been shipped from the company's current production facility in Oregon to distributors in Europe.
