Bruce Hutchison Named uBid.com Holdings, Inc.

Vice President of Marketing

Asset-Recovery Leader Appoints Veteran Marketer To Support Growth Plan

CHICAGO—May 22, 2008 - uBid.com Holdings, Inc. (UBHI.OB), the leading asset recovery solutions company for the world’s most trusted brands, today announced the appointment of Bruce Hutchison to Vice President of Marketing. Hutchison will lead uBid Holdings’ strategy, branding and customer acquisition/retention efforts as uBid.com Holdings augments its online auction platform with additional sales channels.

Hutchison, a veteran marketer having held senior marketing roles at Midas International Corporation, Thompson Multimedia and D’Arcy, Masius, Benton & Bowles, is an ideal leader for uBid.com Holdings marketing efforts as they execute on the recent shifts in their business strategy. Most recently, Hutchison worked with Sears Holdings Corporation’s Kmart business to implement its first-ever customer loyalty program, which used both online and offline data to learn about and better serve their customers through more personal and relevant communications and incentives.

“Bruce’s experience and proven track record in brand management and consumer research are just what uBid needs as we evaluate the brands of our existing sales channels and aggressively build out new sales channels in support of our sellers. Bruce has a solid record of launching successful initiatives and campaigns that deliver positive results, “said uBid Holdings Chief Executive, Jeff Hoffman.

This move closely follows uBid.com Holdings’ recent shift in business strategy, alignment with respected communications and operations partners and aggressive Investor Relations campaign, suggesting that the 10 year-old asset-recovery company known for online auctions, may be building up steam for a rapid expansion in 2008.
