Global capability, cost transparency and a single technology platform close deal

DANBURY, Connecticut, March 22, 2010 - Odyssey Logistics & Technology Corporation (OL&T), announced today that
it has entered into a five-year logistics management outsourcing agreement
with Momentive Performance Materials Inc., a global leader in silicones and
advanced materials. OL&T is a global logistics and transportation service
provider for chemical and process industries.

OL&T will manage Momentive's inbound and outbound logistics including
warehousing and transportation in North America, Europe and Asia. Momentive's
SAP-based enterprise resource planning system will integrate with the Odyssey
Global Logistics Platform(SM) providing a single, integrated transportation
management system globally. This will enable Momentive to view transportation
activities — regardless of mode or region — through a single portal
provided by Odyssey. As a result, Momentive expects to improve logistics
performance while simultaneously reducing costs.

"We put Odyssey Logistics & Technology through a vigorous evaluation to
give us an in-depth understanding of its technology capabilities and
expertise in handling international challenges," said Momentive Global Supply
Chain Director Bill French. "OL&T gave us the confidence that they could
handle our business across the world, and so far they have delivered. Odyssey
is one part of a multi-prong strategy to automate and globalize our business
- customers want better service and information, and Momentive will continue
to find ways to deliver their requests," French said.

OL&T offers its clients a transportation management solution that can be
deployed globally with a single platform while providing transparency to
actual supply chain costs.

"We are very pleased that Momentive has made the decision to entrust OL&T
with this global deployment, and we are well positioned to drive efficiency
and process improvements," said OL&T President and Chief Executive Officer
Bob Shellman.

Odyssey Logistics & Technology will provide Momentive with complete
transportation services including carrier selection and qualification,
contract negotiations, claims and non-conformance management and reporting,
as well as tendering and freight audit and payment services. Further, OL&T's
underlying patented technology infrastructure, the Odyssey Global Logistics
Platform(SM), will be seamlessly integrated into Momentive's SAP application.
