LOJACK Partners With Several Insurance Companies To Offer Discounts For Motorcycle Owners

Relationships with GEICO, Progressive, Foremost and Rider Will Benefit Both Bike Owners and Insurance Companies

WESTWOOD, MA - March 3, 2008 - LoJack Corporation (NASDAQ: LOJN), the leading global provider of recovery systems for motorcycles, cars, trucks and construction equipment, today announced it has established relationships with multiple insurance companies in the U.S. to offer policy discounts and/or waivers of deductibles for motorcycle owners who purchase LoJack For Motorcycles. Specifically, LoJack has secured new relationships with GEICO and Progressive, and has expanded its agreements with Foremost Insurance Group and Rider Insurance.

"We're pleased to establish and broaden these important relationships as they benefit both consumers who can protect their valuable bikes from theft and insurance companies that can help reduce the costs associated with theft," said Ronald V. Waters, LoJack's President and COO. "With motorcycle theft rates rising over the last five years and riding becoming increasingly popular, it is more critical than ever that bike owners do everything possible to protect their motorcycles from theft. These deductible waivers and discounts make it that much more attractive to arm motorcycles with LoJack's proven recovery system."

Details of Insurance Discounts & Waivers:
GEICO will offer policyholders in New Jersey and Rhode Island 20 percent off of their comprehensive coverage immediately, and plans to offer this discount to policyholders in other states in the near future. Progressive will offer policyholders with LoJack For Motorcycles 20 percent off of their comprehensive coverage. The discount, now available in Michigan, Ohio and Virginia, is expected to be offered in most states where LoJack For Motorcycles is available by the end of the year.

Under LoJack's expanded agreements, Rider will now offer policyholders a 50 percent reduction on their comprehensive deductible if they have LoJack For Motorcycles, a theft occurs and the bike is not recovered. LoJack has enhanced its program with Foremost, the specialty insurer of Farmers Insurance, which began in March 2007. Under the expanded offering, Foremost will provide policyholders a deductible waiver of up to $500 if they have LoJack For Motorcycles installed and a theft occurs.
