VOXX Electronics Corporation and AT&T Sign International Data Agreement

New Agreement Expands VOXX’s Car Connection Program

HAUPPAUGE, N.Y.,  Nov. 18, 2014 ―VOXX International Corporation (NASDAQ: VOXX), today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, VOXX Electronics Corporation (VEC) and AT&T have signed an agreement to offer wireless data service to VOXX international Telematics users on a global basis. VOXX currently promotes and sells the Car Connection product line and services in the United States.  With this agreement, VOXX Electronics is now able to provide service to their Car Connection Telematics customers internationally. Additionally, VOXX Electronics and AT&T also reached agreement on a new 4G LTE data plan program for the U.S.

“We have several programs under review outside of the U.S., and working with AT&T on these efforts is exciting for the potential customers who will benefit as a result,” said Dan Murphy, VP of Telematics Solutions for VOXX Electronics Corporation.  “ Through this agreement, we have the ability to expand outside of the U.S. and further grow the number of users of our Car Connection program.”

VOXX Electronics initially introduced its Car Connection Telematics device in November 2013, launching at select retail outlets nationwide.  Car Connection, an M2M-based OBD device that provides up to nine in-car wireless connected vehicle services, was designed to enable consumers to monitor, manage and maintain their vehicle’s health, driving habits and location, and through optional ZoomSafer technology, restrict cell phone usage while driving.  Many of these services can also be used for Business to Business applications such as small fleets. In June 2014, the Company announced the formal launch of its Insurance Discount Program, aligning with three insurance carriers, including Liberty Mutual Insurance, American Family Insurance, and The General Insurance.  The new insurance program provides consumers with the ability to save hundreds of dollars on their car insurance policy when they sign up for Car Connection.

“Car Connection is currently available in our U.S.-based retail stores and online, and now we can expand the program to other markets,” said Chris Penrose, senior vice president, Internet of Things, AT&T Mobility.  “We look forward to working with VOXX Electronics over the coming years and expanding this program, as we believe driver safety and vehicle maintenance are two very important issues for consumers across the world.  The ability to block texting while driving is such an important feature and has received significant attention in the U.S.  With VOXX Electronics, we can bring these important features to our global customer base.”
