Dear Stockholder:

We have previously sent you proxy materials for the special meeting of stockholders of ATC Technology Corporation to be held on October 22, 2010. Our recent records indicate you have not yet voted your shares.

At the special meeting, stockholders are being asked to approve and adopt an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 18, 2010 (as amended, the “merger agreement”), by and among ATC Technology Corporation, a Delaware corporation, GENCO Distribution System, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation, and Transformers Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of GENCO. Upon completion of the merger, you will be entitled to receive $25.00 in cash, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, for each share of ATC common stock that you own immediately prior to the effective time of the merger.

ATC’s Board of Directors has unanimously approved and authorized the merger agreement, and unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” adoption of the merger agreement.

The affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of ATC common stock outstanding on the record date is required to approve and adopt the merger agreement. Accordingly, your vote is very important no matter how many shares you own. Because adoption of the merger agreement requires the approval of stockholders representing a majority of the outstanding shares of ATC common stock, failure to vote your shares of ATC common stock (including failure to provide voting instructions if you hold through a broker, bank or other nominee) will have the same effect as a vote against the merger agreement.

Please submit a proxy today by telephone, via the Internet, or by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided.

If you have any questions or require assistance voting your shares, please call D. F. King & Co., Inc., who is assisting us, toll free at 1-800-290-6431.

 

Sincerely,
LOGO
Joseph Salamunovich

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This document contains various “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regarding the proposed acquisition of ATC by GENCO and the risks and uncertainties related to the occurrence of future events. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about the current economic environment, ATC and its industry. Certain factors that could cause actual events not to occur as expressed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, (i) the failure to obtain the necessary approval by ATC’s stockholders, (ii) the failure, under certain circumstances, of GENCO to meet the conditions set forth in its equity and debt financing documents and (iii) the satisfaction of various other closing conditions contained in the definitive merger agreement. Other potential risks and uncertainties are discussed in ATC’s reports and other documents filed with the SEC from time to time. ATC assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking information. Such forward-looking statements are based upon many estimates and assumptions and are inherently subject to significant economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of ATC’s management. Inclusion of such forward-looking statements herein should not be regarded as a representation by ATC that the statements will prove to be correct.
