The Gas Company to Present Exeter Company With $3.4 Million for Solar Farm


ADVISORY, March 15, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) --



 WHAT:   In what is being billed as the largest business solar panel
         installation in the San Joaquin Valley, Exeter-based
         Peninsula Packaging will receive a $3.4 million oversized
         check from Southern California Gas Co. (The Gas Company) for
         installing a flotilla of 4,000 solar panels on 10 acres at
         the facility site, creating a virtual solar-farm power plant.

         The installed solar farm is a silent, non-polluting
         1-megawatt power plant that helps the manufacturer of food
         and industrial packaging products reduce future increases in
         energy costs. Photovoltaic solar power technology uses solar
         cell panels that follow the sun's movement during the day to
         convert energy from the sun into electricity. The system
         generates enough electricity to power 800 homes.

 TIME:   10 a.m.
