LEZ [LOW EMISSION ZONE]: FREE PASS to LEZ With A FEELPURE tm DPF SyStEM

LONDON With FEELPURE your vehicle meets the LEZ emissions standards. VEHICLES AFFECTED The Low Emission Zone (LEZ) was introduced in 2008 to encourage the most polluting heavy diesel vehicles driving in the Capital to become cleaner. The LEZ covers most of Greater London. To drive within it without paying a daily charge these vehicles must meet certain emissions standards that limit the amount of particulate matter (a type of pollution) coming from their exhausts. At the moment, vehicle types affected (Lorries, buses & coaches and heavy specialist vehicles) need to meet the Euro III standard for particulate matter (PM). However, from 3 January 2012, these standards are changing to Euro IV for PM, so even if your vehicle meets the current standards, you may need to take action soon to meet the new standards in time. It doesn t matter whether your vehicle is used for commercial or private purposes - it will still need to meet the standards. The tables below show those diesel vehicles which don t meet the current LEZ emissions standards, and which will not meet the standards from 3 January 2012. If you own any of the vehicles listed, you will need to take action before driving within the LEZ, or pay a daily charge. Lorries, buses & coaches and heavy specialist vehicles Vehicle types that will not meet the LEZ emissions standards in 2012 Vehicle type Weight Age Lorries; Breakdown and recovery vehicles; Concrete mixers; Fire engines; Gritters; Motorcaravans; Motorised horseboxes; Refuse collection vehicles: Removals lorries; Road sweepers; Snow ploughs; Tippers Buses; Coaches (more than 8 passenger seats) More than 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight More than 5 tonnes gross vehicle weight Registered as new before 1 October 2006 For GB registered vehicles You ll find the exact date your vehicle was first registered on your V5 certificate (the official registration document). If your vehicle was first registered as new with the DVLA on or after 1 October 2006, it will meet the Euro IV emissions standards and you won t need to take any action. Larger vans, minibuses & specialist diesel vehicles Vehicle types that will not meet the LEZ emissions standards in 2012 Vehicle type Weight Age Larger vans; 4x4 light utility vehicles; Motorised horseboxes; Pickups 1.205 tonnes unladen to 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight Registered as new before 1 January 2002 Ambulances; Motorcaravans Minibuses (more than 8 passenger seats) 2.5 to 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight 5 tonnes or less gross vehicle weight For GB registered vehicles You ll find the exact date your vehicle was first registered on your V5 certificate (the official registration document). Remember, the LEZ isn t the same as the central London Congestion Charging zone.

If your vehicle was first registered as new with the DVLA on or after 1 January 2002, it will meet the Euro 3 standard and you won t need to take any action. The Low Emission Zone (LEZ) operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year, including weekends and public and Bank Holidays All roads within Greater London, those at Heathrow and parts of the M1 and M4 are included. However, the M25 is not included (even where it passes within the Greater London Authority boundary). HOW DOES IT WORK? There are no barriers or tollbooths within the Low Emission Zone (LEZ). Instead, cameras will read your number plate as you drive within the LEZ and check it against our database* of registered vehicles. This tells us automatically whether your vehicle meets the LEZ emissions standards, is exempt, is registered for a discount or if you ve already paid the daily charge. *This database is compiled using information from The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA), the Vehicle Operator Services Agency (VOSA), the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) and drivers and operators who have registered directly with TfL. WHAT IS DAILY CHARGE? If your vehicle does not meet the required LEZ emissions standards, you must pay a daily charge (100-200 ) for each day it s driven within the LEZ. Vehicle types that will not meet the LEZ emissions standards in 2012 Vehicle Weight Daily charge Larger vans; 4x4 light utility vehicles; Motorised horseboxes; Pickups 1.205 tonnes unladen - 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight Ambulances; Motorcaravans 2.5 to 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight 100 Minibuses (more than 8 passenger seats) 5 tonnes or less gross vehicle weight Lorries; Breakdown and recovery vehicles; Concrete mixers; Fire engines; Gritters; Motorcaravans; Motorised horseboxes; Refuse collection vehicles; Removals lorries; Road sweepers; Snow ploughs; Tippers More than 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight 200 Buses; Coaches (more than 8 passenger seats) More than 5 tonnes gross vehicle weight

FOREIGN VEHICLES Are included, and need to register with Tfl. Visit the Euro Parking Collection website (http://www.epcplc.com/ clients/tfl/lez/) for a form in your language, or call 0845 607 0009 or from abroad +44 (0) 207 310 8998. In particular you need to provide the following documents with your registration form: A vehicle registration document (V5C or country equivalent). If the vehicle has had an abatement device fitted, a photocopy of an Inspection or Fitting Certificate from a recognised body (please see tfl.gov.uk/lezlondon for the current list of recognised bodies).

GERMANY If your vehicle is equipped with a FEELPURE filter system, you will get the Green Plaque to enter in environmental zones and pay a reduced rate of motorway tax for EURO II and III vehicles. VEHICLES AFFECTED Since 2008 vehicle restrictions in environmental zones (43 already implemented, more in planning) are effective in cities and local districts in Germany. To enter these zones vehicles must have a Fine Dust Plaque, indicating the EURO level of the engine (see table below). In general: POLLUTANT CLASS 1 2 3 4 STICKER NOT ELIGIBLE FOR A STICKER 2 3 4 EMISSION REQUIREMENT (DIESEL VEHICLES) EURO 1 or OLDER EURO 2 or EURO 1 + Particulate Filter EURO 3 or EURO 2 + Particulate Filter EURO 4 or EURO 3 + Particulate Filter Emissions stickers are available in red, yellow and green according to the particulate emission of your vehicle. Green means that you can drive carefree in all environmental zones throughout Germany. Vehicles without an emissions sticker are not permitted to drive in any low emission/ environment zone. If you are caught without a sticker in the environmental zone, you will be fined 40.00 and receive one point in the Flensburg register. FOREIGN VEHICLES With the exclusion of motorcycles, agriculture and forestry tractors; mobile machines and devices; work machines; ambulances; motor vehicles for the severely disabled and vintage cars. Stickers can be purchased from the vehicle registration, authorities, authorised local garages, vehicle test organisations like TÜV, DEKRA, or some websites. The LEZ city authorities and other cities also sell stickers, often over the internet. Many hotels in LEZ cities also offer to order the stickers on behalf of their guests, if they receive the requisite documents in advance. German LEZ stickers can be purchased online for all vehicles in all countries for 12.50, also in different languages.

TRUCK TOLL SYSTEM S CLASS EURO CLASS Germany has introduced a distance-based toll for all trucks of twelve tonnes gross vehicle weight and above for all users - from inside and outside Germany. The level of the toll is based on the emissions class and number of axles on the truck and on the distance travelled on the toll route. The new German Heavy Goods Vehicle Toll Level Ordinance, that came into force on 1st January 2009, assigns each vehicle to one of four categories, A to D, based on its emissions class. NO S PRE EURO S1 EURO 1 S2 EURO 2 S3 EURO 3 S4 EURO 4 The new toll rates mean that trucks with the latest-generation exhaust systems and those that have been upgraded with particle reduction systems pay significantly less than high-emission vehicles. Therefore, trucks in emissions class S2, combined with particle reduction levels 1, 2, 3 or 4, now enjoy the lower toll rates of category C, while vehicles in emissions class S3, combined with particle reduction levels 2, 3 or 4, pay the category B rates. Toll rates per kilometre from gen, 1st 2009 from gen, 1st 2011 Category A Category B Category C Category D S5, EEV class 1 S4, S3 with PMK 2, 3 or 4 S3 without PMK, S2 with PMK 1, 2, 3 or 4 S2 without PMK, S1 and vehicles not assigned to a pollutant emission category up to 3 axles 0,141 0,140 4 axles or more 0,155 0,155 up to 3 axles 0,169 0,168 4 axles or more 0,183 0,182 up to 3 axles 0,190 0,210 4 axles or more 0,204 0,224 up to 3 axles 0,274 0,273 4 axles or more 0,288 0,287 FEELPURE WITH TOLL ON SAVINGS CLASS N OF AXLES without PMK2 S2 FEELPURE with PMK2 up to 3 axles 0,273 0,21 4 axles or more 0,287 0,224 save /km with FEELPURE 0,063 S3 up to 3 axles 0,210 0,168 4 axles or more 0,224 0,182 0,042 For more information www.toll-collect.de call CUSTOMER SERVICE +49 180 2 86 55 26

DENMARK With FEELPURE you can enter LEZ in Denmark (Copenhagen, Frederiksberg, Odense and Aalborg, Aarhus*). * Low emission zones are implemented and in force in Copenhagen, Aarhus, Aalborg and Odense. VEHICLES AFFECTED Heavy-duty vehicles (truck and busses) must meet one of the following requirements: Engine meets the Euro 4 standard or newer. Vehicle is fitted with an effective particle filter. The Danish authority requires labels for all heavy-duty diesel-powered vehicles entering a low emission zone in Denmark by 1 November 2011. From 1 November 2011, you must have a low emission zone label on the windshield, like your Danish colleagues. The label is a proof that the truck or bus has a low particle emission and may enter all Danish low emission zones. The label replaces the need to bring additional documentation about the vehicle s engine standard etc. You can order the label at www.ecosticker.applus.dk. GENERAL REVIEW OF EURO STANDARDS AND DANISH ENVIRONMENTAL ZONE REQUIREMENTS EURO STANDARD MANDATORY FROM REQUIREMENT EURO 2 and BEFORE --- NO ACCESS WITHOUT FILTER EURO 3 OCTOBER, 1st 2001 NO ACCESS WITHOUT FILTER AFTER JUL, 1st 2010 EURO 4 OCTOBER, 1st 2006 FREE ACCESS EURO 5 OCTOBER, 1st 2009 FREE ACCESS FOREIGN VEHICLES The filter must meet the following requirements: The maximum back pressure allowed from the particle filter is 20 kpa at maximum engine power. The particle filter must reduce the exhaust of particles by at least 80%, calculated according to the applicable EU methods. At constant use, the particle filter must ensure that the gas density, after the filter measured at free acceleration, does not exceed a K-value of 0.2 m-1. In general, all filters approved by the various European approval schemes fulfil these requirements. As an alternative, the vehicle must be fitted with a particle filter that is approved by the Danish Road Safety and Transport Agency or by an organisation authorised by the Danish Road Safety and Transport Agency in its approval of principle scheme. Read more on the Danish Road Safety and Transport Agency website. Foreign vehicles may also be exempted in Denmark. However this will require special circumstances e.g. special haulage.

THE NETHERLANDS With FEELPURE you can enter LEZ in the Netherlands (Amsterdam, Utrecht, Rotterdam, Den Haag, Eindhoven, Breda, Den Bosch, Tilburg, Delft, Leiden and Maastricht). VEHICLES AFFECTED Only clean lorries may enter environmental zones. To be clean, diesel lorries weighing over 3,500 kg must comply with the Euro 3 emission standard or higher. Lorries with Euro 0 or Euro 1 and Euro 2 engines may not enter environmental zones. Lorries with diesel engines that comply with the Euro 3 standard must be fitted with a particle filter certified by the Department of Road Transport (RDW) and may not be older than 8 years. Lorries with Euro 4 or Euro 5 engines may enter environmental zones without having to be modified. The penalty for noncompliance with the admission criteria is 160. The Netherlands did not introduce special stickers to show the emission levels of engines (like the German Umweltplakette ). Instead, enforcement is based on the vehicle licence number, which is linked to the environmental class and vehicle age. After 1 July 2013 the minimum standard is full Euro 4. FOREIGN VEHICLES The authorities are currently examining whether the restrictions in environmental zones can be applied to foreign vehicles. For the time being regulations are per city and can be obtained via their websites which are mainly in Dutch. In case of a check by the local police, foreign drivers must be able to prove that their vehicle is equipped with an approved DPF system (Source: http://www.agentschapnl.nl/ - SPECIAL Newsletter Expert Center LEZ s 16/04/2010).
