Iomega Corporation Appoints Dan Maurer to its Board of Directors

SAN DIEGO, March 24, 2006- Iomega Corporation (NYSE: IOM) today announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Dan Maurer to serve as a member of the Company's Board, effective immediately.

Maurer brings to the Iomega Board more than 25 years of global brand marketing, sales, and general management experience, working for Procter & Gamble, The Campbell Soup Company, and currently at Intuit, where he is Vice President, Marketing. Maurer is filling the Board position vacated by Werner Heid, who resigned in February.

"Mr. Maurer's extensive expertise in the areas of global marketing, branding and strategic planning, among others, will be of significant benefit to Iomega," said Stephen David, Chairman of the Board. "We are very pleased to have him as a member of the Board of Directors."

At Intuit, Maurer is responsible for marketing the Turbo Tax brand. At Campbell's he served as head of strategy for the global sales organization, and head of strategy for Campbell's businesses in the U.S. During his tenure at P&G, including 15 years of international assignments, Maurer worked on strategic business development and successfully managed and marketed key brands, as well as developing new business models for the company. One of those models became Emmperative, an enterprise software company for which he was the chief executive officer.

Earlier in his career at P&G, Maurer managed leading brands throughout Europe, helping launch Always™ and Vidal Sassoon™, among others. He also drove significant growth for Pampers™ and Mr. Propre™ (Mr. Clean) in France, and for Crest™ and Ariel™ in Greece, while developing the European export business. As general manager of the European Attends™ business, he successfully doubled sales. Maurer holds a Bachelor's degree in marketing and finance from the University of Wisconsin.

"Iomega has always been recognized for innovative storage solutions and a strong brand that resonates around the world," said Maurer. "It's very exciting to be joining the Board at this important juncture as the Company plans new strategic initiatives with the goal of returning Iomega to sustained profitability."
