FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FISKER STATEMENT RE: MISLEADING NEWS REPORTS

There have been stories in the media today commenting on the Department of Energy (DoE) loan guarantees Fisker Automotive received. We wanted to give you some more information.

•  The Fisker Karma is the world’s fist environmentally-responsible luxury sedan with a unique hybrid electric powertrain developed by a highly-skilled team of engineers and designers in America.

• Not a single dollar of the DoE loans has been, or will be, spent outside of America. All expenditures are reviewed by PwC (Price Waterhouse Coopers) on behalf of the DoE.

• After receiving the DoE loan, Fisker made it a priority to create U.S. jobs which led to the purchase its own assembly plant in Delaware where we plan to establish production of our second, higher volume, line of vehicles (Project Nina).

• There are currently over 100 workers reconfiguring the Delaware plant so that Fisker will be ready to begin hiring a skilled hourly workforce to producing its Nina platform vehicles in the U. S. for sale around the world. Many of these Delaware costs are covered by the DoE loans.

• For the Karma program, the DoE loan money was used solely in the U. S. to fund design, engineering, and integration work.

• Only private equity financing, of which we have raised over $600 million so far, has been used for costs not covered by the DoE loans, of which only a small part is production costs in Finland.

• The majority of our private funding has been used to create jobs, including 650 people at Fisker’s headquarters in California, over 100 at the Delaware plant and many more at various suppliers throughout the U. S.

• At the inception  of the company, Fisker explored the possibility of producing the Karma in the U. S. However, there are no contract manufactures like Valmet in the U. S., and none of the established domestic automakers were willing to partner with Fisker to provide a manufacturing option in the U. S. that would work for the Karma program. Our assembly arrangement for the Karma was in place before the DoE loans were approved, and has been widely reported on since 2009.

• There is no link between Fisker Automotive and any political party. We are politically neutral – our focus is on building luxury electric vehicles.

• More that 45% of the components of the Fisker Karma sedan are manufactured by approximately 40 suppliers located in the U. S. Some of our biggest suppliers in the U. S. include A 123 Systems (Li-ion battery), General Motors Springhill Engine Plant (gasoline engine), Goodyear (tires) and TRW (regenerative braking system).

• The Fisker Karma is the world’s first environmentally-responsible luxury sedan with a unique hybrid electric powertrain developed by a highly-skilled team of engineers and designers in America.

• With the help of DoE loans, Fisker has already created hundreds of U. S. jobs, with thousands more in the near future. Ultimately Fisker is a high-tech American car company that we’re confident will be an American success story to be celebrated.
