Three lucky couples were chosen today to act as Ambassadors for leading leisure products company, the Dometic Group in their ‘Follow The Sun’ promotion.

Handpicked from over one thousand entries nationwide, Ross and Lorraine Turner from Pine Mountain, Queensland; Tony and Sue Hammond from Westlake, Queensland; and Jay and Dianne Goncalves from Berwick, Victoria have each won approximately $35,000 in prizes including a 13-week expenses paid road trip around Australia, plus a complete makeover of
their own caravan with a range of luxurious Dometic and WAECO products.

Discover Downunder Host and former Olympian Brooke Hanson today announced the prize
winners at the NSW Caravan, Camping, RV and Holiday Supershow inviting the three
couples to share in the wonders of travelling Australia while showing off their new Dometic
appliances to fellow travellers.

Each couple will now have their caravan or camper trailer refitted with a deluxe range of
Dometic and WAECO products before starting their winner’s adventure tour on 13 June 2010
following the Brisbane Caravan and Camping Show.

The Turners and their two children, Jacob, 11 and Ella, 6, will embark upon a tropical
adventure through Queensland; the Hammonds will journey through three states; and the
Goncalves’ will take a rivers, lakes and bush tour of New South Wales.

On their tropical adventure tour through Queensland, the Turners will start in Brisbane and
then head north to the Sunshine Coast, Hervey Bay, and Bundaberg up to the Capricorn
Coast. They will then stay northward bound to Cairns before heading back south on an inland
route, passing through Charters Towers, Emerald, Cania Gorge and head back to the Gold
Coast.

The Hammonds on their journey through three states will depart from Adelaide and travel to
the Claire Valley and along the Murray to Mildura whilst visiting the fruit growing areas. They
will then head to Bright in the Great Dividing Range of Victoria’s high country before
continuing onto Gundagai, the coast to Eden, Merimbula and Bateman’s Bay. They will then
carry onto Sydney before heading back to the Gold Coast.

On their rivers, lakes and bush tour of New South Wales, the Gonclaves’ will commence their
tour in Brisbane before heading south to the northern New South Wales coast visiting the
river heads and lakes through to Sydney. From there they will go inland through Forbes,
Dubbo, Tamworth, Gunnedah and Narrabri and then back to the Gold Coast.

All keen caravanning and camping enthusiasts, each couple will promote Dometic’s products
by meeting other travellers and locals and entertaining them at happy hours along the journey.
The couples will also post regular blogs of their adventures at:

“Being chosen as an Ambassador for Dometic means we get the opportunity to do more of
what we love – travelling, entertaining and meeting new people – using products we really
believe in,” said Mr Hammond.

“It is just a fantastic opportunity to see some of Australia’s best destinations while being paid
to travel and meet people – you can’t ask for better much than that,” said Mr Turner.
The winners’ journeys will finish on the Gold Coast with a huge party on 15 September 2010.
The Dometic Group offers an extensive range of leisure products for the caravan,
motorhome and truck markets, including air conditioners, refrigerators, awnings, cookers,
sanitation systems, lighting, mobile power equipments, comfort and safety solutions, windows,
doors and other equipment that makes leisure life more comfortable away from home.

*Based on RRP of Dometic and WAECO products and estimated travel costs. Prize value
