DriveCam, Inc. Completes $18 Million Series B Financing; Menlo Ventures and JMI Equity Provide Funds for Rapid Market Expansion

SAN DIEGO - June 22, 2005

DriveCam, Inc., the leader in knowledge-based systems that improve driving behavior, today announced that it has secured $18 million in Series B financing. Menlo Ventures, a Silicon Valley investment firm, invested $10.7 million; JMI Equity, a San Diego private equity firm, participated with a $7 million investment; DriveCam management also contributed. The funds will be used to accelerate growth in markets, products, people and infrastructure to capitalize on DriveCam's first mover advantage and growing demand for its driver behavior modification systems.

"DriveCam has a compelling story for anyone responsible for a fleet of vehicles. The company has proven that consistent driver feedback is the answer to lowering operating costs and improving safety," said Doug Carlisle, a managing director of Menlo Ventures. "It is an inexpensive way to dramatically reduce accidents, providing both a societal benefit and a return on investment. This funding will give DriveCam the capital to expand worldwide."

Peter Arrowsmith, general partner of JMI Equity, stated: "We are excited to invest in a proven market leader that we believe is poised to be the dominant solution in a very large market. DriveCam is not just a device, but a complete enterprise solution for improving driver behavior and reducing risk. The DriveCam system cuts insurance claims and liabilities in half or more for most fleets."

The DriveCam system is used by thousands of commercial vehicles, including those in public transit, service fleets, school buses, parking shuttles, ambulances, utility fleets and taxis. Customers include ATC, Laidlaw, Time Warner, Ampco System Parking, Staples, and others.

"DriveCam is the knowledge and results leader in the field, having led the innovation of the audio/video feedback approach to identify and change driving behavior. Only DriveCam focuses on the actual root cause of incident and accidents -- the driver who is in control of the vehicle," said Bruce Moeller, DriveCam president and CEO. "This financing will give us the ability to introduce new services that make it easier for customers to implement our solutions and quickly reap the benefits."

Carlisle and Arrowsmith will sit on DriveCam's board of directors. A portion of DriveCam's original financing was provided by the Tech Coast Angels and Chopra Ventures. DriveCam was advised by Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati and Core Capital Group in completing this transaction.
