ADMMicro Energy Management Systems Installed in A.C. Moore Stores

ROANOKE, Va.--(Business Wire)--
ADMMicro, now a GridPoint company and a leader in sophisticated energy
management systems (EMS), has recently installed comprehensive control and
monitoring solutions at approximately 100 A.C. Moore retail stores. A.C. Moore
is a specialty retailer offering a wide array of arts, crafts, floral
merchandise and custom framing to customers throughout the eastern United
States.

"A.C. Moore wanted to significantly reduce our store level energy expense while
remaining focused on the comfort of our customers as well as the reduction of
our carbon footprint on the environment." said Kelly Radford, Director of
Construction and Facilities for A.C. Moore. "With this new energy management
system, we can have a real impact on the environment and reign in spending at
the same time. This will help us to grow our company more efficiently and with
greater accountability."

The ADMMicro system provides energy management, energy monitoring, and
maintenance alarming for HVAC and lighting systems. Looking forward, it also
provides revenue-accurate metering for potential demand response programs and
other sustainability initiatives for A.C. Moore.

A.C. Moore began deploying the ADMMicro system by adding the system to the
prototype for all new stores and relocations during 2008 and kicked-off a
100-store rollout to select existing stores in early 2009, achieving immediate
energy reductions through scheduled temperature and timing set points and
lighting schedules.

"Our Energy Management System allows our clients to be proactive with respect to
the management of their facilities," said John Richmond, ADMMicro vice president
of sales and marketing. "With ADMMicro, a company can continue to do the same
things that made it successful with significantly less energy and more
operational efficiency."

"We`re confident that the ADMMicro systems will continue to provide tangible
benefits," said Kelly Radford. "And at the same time, we are demonstrating our
company`s commitment to sustainability."
