Goodyear Renews Procurement Outsourcing Contract With ICG Commerce

Three-year Extension Follows Successful Relationship that Resulted in Achievement of Key Goals

PHILADELPHIA - Monday, October 08, 2007 - ICG Commerce, the leading procurement outsourcing specialist, 
today announced that it has renewed its contract with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (NYSE:GT), one of 
the world’s leading tire manufacturers.  The extension of this relationship is a result of ICG Commerce’s 
ability to meet its commitments and deliver measurable value. Goodyear engaged ICG Commerce in 2005 as part 
of the company’s focus on driving cost reductions, one of the seven key drivers in their corporate strategy 
to build momentum and maintain profitable growth through 
improvements in company performance. 

“Extending our contract with ICG Commerce attests to the success of the relationship to date,” said Ted 
Augustine, Goodyear’s Director of Purchasing – North American Tire. “Over the past two and a half years, our 
joint team has delivered on aggressive targets that directly support company goals.”   

Under the three-year extension, ICG Commerce will continue to assist Goodyear with a full scope of procurement
 business process outsourcing (BPO) services: sourcing, category management and purchase-to-pay transaction 
processing for major indirect spend categories within the company’s North American Tire business unit.  The 
program will continue to support Goodyear’s cost reduction goals by delivering realized savings and increased 
efficiencies while allowing the company to focus on core competencies.  

“Goodyear’s dedication to driving performance improvements and efficiencies is impressive” said Carl Guarino, 
CEO of ICG Commerce.  “We are very pleased to be supporting these efforts and look forward to contributing to 
Goodyear’s continued success.” 

This renewal, which follows recent contract expansions signed with Greif (NYSE: GEF, GEF.B), Cameron International
Corporation (NYSE: CAM) and a leading technology company and new contracts signed with Chiquita Brands 
International (NYSE:CQB) and a global life science company, highlights ICG Commerce’s ability to help leading 
companies drive measurable cost savings, improved visibility and greater control through its comprehensive 
procurement outsourcing solutions.

According to market expert IDC, the renewed contracts also demonstrate a maturation of the procurement services 
industry and solidify the concept of leading companies’ preference for choosing specialist providers for 
procurement outsourcing engagements. “ICG Commerce’s relationships with companies such as Goodyear, Greif and 
Chiquita are examples of how leading companies are looking to specialist procurement outsourcing providers to 
help them focus on their core competencies and improve financial results,” said David Tapper, Vice President, 
Outsourcing Services Research, IDC.
