Posted 05/19/2011 UPDATE ON LSV TAX CREDIT APPEALS: May 18, 2011 In early March, two Administrative Law Judges ruled that the Tomberlin and Ruff & Tuff models of LSVs qualified for the Ada Electric Cars customers: MORE GREAT NEWS! Last week, a second OTC Administrative Law Judge issued his ruling, conclusions and recommendations on Ruff ‘N Tuff LSV’s. His Conclusion: Ruff ‘N Tuff Line of LSV’s meets the definition of “qualified electric motor vehicle property” and qualifies for the Credit provided by the Statute. His Recommendation: Based upon the facts and circumstances of this case that the protest to the denial of the “Electric Car Income Tax Credit” for Ruff ‘N Tuff (model) should be granted. We are pleased to report another victory for our customers and for taxpayers across Oklahoma. Again, we continue to be thankful to our customers for supporting us in this battle and to Mr. Riffel and his team for a fine job of representing us, our customers, and other honest hardworking taxpayers across this great state. Now one District Judge and two OTC Administrative Law Judges have ALL ruled in favor of the Oklahoma taxpayers. Score: Taxpayers 3 Hearings are still pending for Stealth, Bad Boy Buggies, and American Custom Cars. I would hope the OTC is getting the clear message that they were out of line and that they are not permitted to change the law. We will provide updated information as it comes available on other models and other issues regarding the LSV’s that we sold. Posted 03/04/2011

All Around Electric Vehicles (AAEV) is a new company that is owned by If you or anyone you know is interested in a new or used low-speed-vehicle, or other electric vehicles we encourage you to call AAEV. If you want NON-WARRANTY accessories and/or repairs for your current electric vehicle we encourage you to call AAEV. If you need warranty work on your Stealth, AAEV is the state distributor and a dealer, and you should call them. If there is another service location for Stealth that is more appropriate, Chris can direct you there. If you are looking for warranty work on your Tomberlin vehicle, please see our posting on our website that identifies other authorized Tomberlin dealers who can service your warranty issues. AAEV is capable and willing to assist with Tomberlin service work; they have the knowledge and ability, but they are not an “authorized” service center and therefore would require payment for parts when ordered and labor when the vehicle is picked up. For those inquiring about AEC closing (reason: OTC ran us out of business), any AEC obligations (AEC owners will still stand behind them), AEC’s commitment to FIGHT (we are still leading the charge, and will continue to do so), status of hearing decision (pending, overdue, expected anytime): we addressed these issues in recent emails, and posted the information on our website. We will check our email periodically at aec@adaelectriccars.com but we have no additional information to offer at this time, so please be patient as we fight for your rights. We will update our website and make contact by email as new information becomes available. Please do not call AAEV for information or updates as they do not have any additional information to give you. We regret the entire set of unfortunate events that have been the direct result of the unethical and illegal actions of the OTC. This is not how we envisioned our future, but nearly 1 ½ years has passed since the OTC killed our sales and destroyed our business. We simply could not justify the monthly expenses of running the business while sales were virtually shut down. We will continue to pursue justice on behalf of our customers and all honest, hardworking January 21, 2011 Posted 01/11/2011 Ada Electric Cars customers and friends, Thank you for your business and your patience. Effective December 31, 2010 Ada Electric Cars has closed all three of its locations ( “The owners of AEC will continue the legal process to try to force the Oklahoma Tax Commission to follow the law and honor the tax credits for LSV purchases. We have felt all along that this is a matter of principle beyond just ‘electric car tax credits’.” Stealth vehicles can still be serviced at the following locations: ALL AROUND ELECTRIC VEHICLES (see introduction letter below) www.allaroundelectricvehicles.com Pat's Archery, Inc. Brooks American Made Customs Tomberlin vehicles can still be serviced at the following locations: You can check Tomberlin’s website for a list of other dealers and/or service locations.

Then, for some completely unknown reason (likely reason was to save tax credit money), the OTC began denying the tax credit on some models while honoring the tax credits on other models that are virtually the same? Go figure? The original Ada Electric Cars held on as long as possible and we hope we have provided all of our customers with the products and services they wanted and needed to date. Unfortunately as a direct result of the illegal and unethical actions of the OTC we are no longer able to continue as a going concern. We will continue to fight for your rights and for the proper recognition of the tax credits that you deserve. Introduction letter from All Around Electric Vehicles owner Chris Bastien: With the start of the New Year, we would like to announce the start of a New Company. All Around Electric Vehicles is now open for business. We will be handling all of the Stealth warranty and service work, along with the sales of new Stealth products. All Around Electric Vehicles will also handle ALL your electric car service and accessory needs. While not an “Authorized” Tomberlin dealer, we have the capability to service your Tomberlin with many of the standard parts in stock to expedite your service. Even though All Around Electric Vehicles is a new company, we have been in the electric car business through all of the I invite you to look over our web site at: www.allaroundelectricvehicles.com, or come see us at: Our goal is to make your electric vehicle everything you want it to be.
