    Newest Moves Position
    Company Well for National Expansion

    SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 05 — Caboodle Cartridge,
    http://www.caboodle.net, today announced the expansion of its primary Silicon
    Valley-based laboratory and the hiring of a senior Director of Production and
    Technology to help support the rapid, national growth of Caboodle Cartridge
    franchises. Caboodle also announced plans to open dozens of other locations
    around the country within the next several months.
    All rebuild and recharge operations for the retail stores is done
    at the main lab at the company’s Santa Clara, CA headquarters. With the
    completion of 6,000 additional sq. ft., Tien Nguyen, Director of Production and
    Technology, will oversee expansion of its main lab, managing quality control, as
    well as increasing production. Nguyen was formerly Technical Director at
    Cartridge World and VP of Operations at Toner Charge.

    Caboodle Cartridge is creating an entirely new channel for ink jet
    and laser printer cartridges by introducing an advanced recharging laboratory
    and first-of-its-kind retail service outlets. Caboodle Cartridges enables
    printer users to simply walk into a local store and have their cartridges
    exchanged within minutes for a savings of as much as 60%. Caboodle cartridges
    meet or exceed OEM quality and specifications.

    “Our expansion helps us meet the needs of our rapidly growing
    network of franchisees, enabling us to expand our product line and ensure the
    delivery high quality cartridges for a national customer base,” said Daniel
    Wencel, founder and president of Caboodle Cartridge. “Tien is highly regarded in
    the recharging industry, bringing to Caboodle a tremendous level of knowledge
    and experience. Tien will help us continue our growth as the only technically
    advanced, high quality cartridge recharging and refilling solution in North
    America.”

    Caboodle Cartridge is the first company in North America to build an
    advanced facility to rebuild and recharge laser and inkjet cartridges that are
    at or exceeding OEM-quality, while others simply refill the ink and toner. It
    also is the only company to open dedicated retail outlets allowing customers to
    walk in and instantly receive “good-as-new” replacements. Caboodle recharges all
    popular cartridges for color and B/W laser and ink jet, including
    Hewlett-Packard, Canon, Panasonic, Lexmark, Brother, Samsung, Minolta, and
    Epson.

    Caboodle focuses on quality. The founders have invested in a
    state-of-the-art recharging facility that does not compromise quality and yet
    offers substantial savings. When servicing laser printer cartridges, the company
    refills the toner and also replaces the inside components. Typical savings are
    40% to 60% of the price of a new cartridge.
