Leading U.S. Convenience Store Company Selects March Networks Business
Analysis Software and Services for Chain-wide Rollout

     OTTAWA, Dec. 10 /CNW Telbec/ - March Networks(TM) (TSX:MN; AIM:MNW), a
leading provider of intelligent IP video and business analysis applications,
today announced that Speedway SuperAmerica LLC has standardized on its retail
business analytics solution for approximately 1,600 gasoline convenience
stores.
     Speedway SuperAmerica LLC (SSA), a subsidiary of Marathon Oil Corporation
(NYSE: MRO), is one of the nation's largest corporately-owned and operated
chains of its kind. Following a successful pilot program in 200 stores, SSA
selected the latest release of the March Networks LP Data Mining solution and
expects to have the software deployed company-wide by the end of 2007.
     The LP Data Mining solution will enable SSA to reduce inventory shrinkage
and improve overall store and associate performance. It includes fully
customizable Point-Of-Sale transaction profiling, user-friendly investigation
and reporting tools, and digital video integration. Key software features,
such as drawer alarm alerts, prepaid fuel reports and voids by type, deliver
further operational efficiencies.
     Intelligent data mining and exception reporting software are important
elements of a retail loss prevention strategy to address the growing problem
of inventory shrinkage, which annually costs U.S. retailers an estimated
$42 billion.
     In addition to the software rollout, SSA also has selected March
Networks' Professional Services to optimize software performance at all
locations. The services include regular software diagnostics and updates
managed remotely by March Networks specialists.
     "The fully automated transaction analysis capabilities offered by the
LP Data Mining software significantly enhance our ability to identify and
investigate fraudulent activity," said Mitch Hurst, SSA's manager, Security &
Loss Management. "We expect that the combination of March Networks' software
and expert professional services will help us considerably reduce inventory
shrinkage once the deployment is complete."
     "March Networks has developed a broad portfolio of data mining and video
management solutions that support more effective operational control across a
variety of retail formats," said Peter Strom, President and CEO, March
Networks. "We are pleased to add Speedway SuperAmerica to the growing list of
major retailers that have chosen our industry-leading solutions for loss
prevention and risk management."
