@Road®® Appoints Interim Chief Financial Officer

FREMONT, CA - April 30, 2004 - @Road (NASDAQ: ARDI), a leading provider of mobile resource management services (MRM), today announced that it has appointed Carol Rice-Murphy, the Company's Vice President and Controller, as the Company's interim Chief Financial Officer (CFO). The Company has commenced a search for a new CFO.

Tom Hoster, the Company's CFO since November 1999, is leaving the Company. Mr. Hoster plans to join a private company to assist in its initial public offering process.

Carol Rice-Murphy has served as Controller for @Road since February 2000 and was promoted to Vice President in November of 2001. Ms. Rice-Murphy is responsible for the Company's finance and accounting functions, with over 25 years of experience in financial management in the high technology industry in addition to this role.

"I am pleased to have helped @Road grow into a leading provider of mobile resource management services," stated Mr. Hoster. "I leave the Company in the hands of a capable management team with a strong balance sheet. I believe that the Company has realized just a small portion of the market potential for mobile resource management services, and with its leadership position and integrity can continue to define the mobile resource management category."

"We thank Tom for his efforts over the past four years as we grew from a private company to a profitable public company with over $100 million on the balance sheet," said Krish Panu, president and CEO of @Road. "We wish Tom well in his future endeavors."
