ABOUT THE MEETING

Why are we calling this annual meeting?

We are calling the annual meeting to seek the approval of our shareholders to:

·  
Elect seven directors to the Company’s Board of Directors to serve until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until their successors are elected;
 
·  
Any other matters that may properly come before the meeting.

What are the Board’s recommendations?

Our Board believes that the election of the nominated directors is advisable and in the best interests of Streicher Mobile Fueling, Inc. and its shareholders and recommends that you vote FOR the nominees.

Who is entitled to vote at the meeting?

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the record date, October 21, 2005, are entitled to receive notice of the annual meeting and to vote the shares of Common Stock that they held on that date at the meeting, or any postponement or adjournment of the meeting. Holders of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on each matter to be voted upon.

As of the record date, we had 9,766,762 outstanding shares of Common Stock.

Who can attend the meeting?

All shareholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the annual meeting. Please note that if you hold your shares in “street name” (that is, through a broker or other nominee), you will need to bring a copy of your proxy card delivered to you by your broker or a legal proxy given to you by your broker and check in at the registration desk at the meeting.



What constitutes a quorum?

The presence at the annual meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of our Common Stock outstanding on the record date will constitute a quorum for our meeting. Signed proxies received but not voted and broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of shares considered to be present at the meeting.

How do I vote?

You can vote on matters that come before the annual meeting by completing, dating and signing the enclosed proxy card and returning it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope.

Your shares will be voted as you indicate on your proxy card. If you vote the enclosed proxy but you do not indicate your voting preferences, and with respect to any other matter that properly comes before the meeting, the individuals named on the proxy card will vote your shares FOR the matters submitted at the meeting, or if no recommendation is given, in their own discretion.

If you attend the annual meeting and prefer to vote in person, you may do so even if you have already voted your shares by proxy.

What if I vote and then change my mind?

You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised by:

·  
filing with the Secretary of Streicher Mobile Fueling, Inc. a notice of revocation;
 
·  
sending in another duly executed proxy bearing a later date; or

·  
attending the meeting and casting your vote in person.

Your latest vote will be the vote that is counted.

What vote is required to approve the items of business?

For purposes of electing directors, the nominees receiving the greatest number of votes of Common Stock shall be elected directors. Approval of any other matter that may properly come before the annual meeting requires the affirmative vote of the majority of our outstanding Common Stock represented in person or by proxy (unless such matter requires a greater vote under our Articles of Incorporation).
 
2

Will our independent auditors be present at the annual meeting?

A representative of Grant Thornton LLP, our independent auditors, is expected to be in attendance at the annual meeting and to be available to respond to questions.

How are we soliciting this proxy?

We are soliciting this proxy on behalf of our Board by mail and will pay all expenses associated therewith. Some of the officers and other employees of Streicher Mobile Fueling, Inc. also may, but without compensation other than their regular compensation, solicit proxies by further mailing or personal conversations, or by telephone, facsimile or other electronic means.

PROPOSAL TO ELECT SEVEN INDIVIDUALS TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
 
(Proposal No. 1)
 
Nominees
 
The Board has fixed at seven the number of directors that will constitute the Board for the ensuing year. Each director elected at the annual meeting will serve for a term expiring at the 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, or until his successor has been duly elected and qualified. Wendell R. Beard, Richard E. Gathright, Steven R. Goldberg, Larry S. Mulkey, C. Rodney O’Connor, Robert S. Picow and W. Greg Ryberg, each of whom is an incumbent director, have been nominated to be elected at the annual meeting by the holders of Common Stock and proxies will be voted for such persons absent contrary instructions.
 
Our Board has no reason to believe that any nominee will refuse to act or be unable to accept election; however, in the event that a nominee for a directorship is unable to accept election or if any other unforeseen contingencies should arise, it is intended that proxies will be voted for the remaining nominees and for such other person as may be designated by the Board, unless it is directed by a proxy to do otherwise.
 
Each of the nominees for election as a director is a current member of our Board. Mr. O’Connor has served as a director since 1999, Messrs. Beard, Gathright, Picow and Ryberg have served as directors since 2001, Mr. Mulkey has served as a director since 2002, and Mr. Goldberg has served as a director since 2005.
 
All of the members of the Board who were serving on the date of the last annual meeting, December 9, 2004, attended that meeting.
 
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR”
THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE SEVEN INDIVIDUALS TO THE
BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Corporate Governance

Independence

The Board of Directors has determined, after considering all of the relevant facts and circumstances, that each of Messrs. Beard, Goldberg, Mulkey, Ryberg, and Picow is independent from our management and qualifies as an “independent director” under the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. This means that, in the judgment of the Board of Directors, none of those directors (1) is an officer or employee of the Company or its subsidiary or (2) has any direct or indirect relationship with the Company that would interfere with the exercise of his independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. As a result, the Company has a majority of independent directors as required by the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.
 
9


Code of Business Conduct

The Company has adopted a Code of Business Conduct that applies to all of the Company’s employees, including its senior financial officer and chief executive officer, which complies with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. Accordingly, the Code is designed to deter wrongdoing, and to promote, among other things, honest and ethical conduct, full, timely, accurate and clear public disclosures, compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code, and accountability. A copy of the Company’s Code of Business Conduct is available on the Company’s website at www.mobilefueling.com.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) requires that our directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of our Common Stock, file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC rules to furnish us with copies of all ownership reports they file with the SEC. Our non-executive officers named above have filed Section 16(a) ownership reports with the SEC even though they are not required to do so by Section 16(a).

To our knowledge, based solely on review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and representations that no other reports were required, during the period ended June 30, 2005, all required reports were filed timely. While Robert Creasman, one of the Company’s non-executive officers, filed a late Form 4 reporting one transaction, that filing was not required by Section 16(a).

Employment Contracts

The Company entered into an employment agreement with Richard E. Gathright on October 26, 2000, pursuant to which Mr. Gathright serves as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company. That agreement had a term of three years, commencing on October 26, 2000. On September 25, 2003, the Company and Mr. Gathright amended the terms of the agreement extending it from three to four years and increased his annual base salary to $323,000. On September 23, 2004, the Company and Mr. Gathright extended the term of the agreement until October 31, 2005. In March 2005, the agreement was amended and restated and further extended to February 28, 2006, and providing for automatic one year extensions thereafter unless either party gives notice of intent not to renew prior to such extension. As amended and restated, the agreement provides for a minimum annual base salary of $323,000, participation with other members of management, in a bonus program, whereby up to 10% of the Company’s pretax profits will be set aside for bonus payments, and the grant of 500,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $1.50 per share. The agreement further provides that it may be terminated by the Company at any time and for any reason. If the agreement is terminated by the Company without cause, Mr. Gathright shall be due the greater of all base salary payable through the remaining term of the agreement or eighteen months base salary, subject to the limitations on severance payments imposed by the American Jobs Creation Act of 1986 and Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, which generally require that any such severance payments cannot begin until six months after the termination of the executive’s employment. In the event Mr. Gathright’s severance payments are so deferred, however, he will not be bound by the post-employment restrictions on non-competitive employment, provided, however, that the Company has the option of electing, at the time of termination, to pay Mr. Gathright an amount equal to his salary for such six month period in exchange for his being immediately bound by the non-competition covenant. If the agreement is terminated for cause, as defined, Mr. Gathright will not be entitled to the severance payments specified.
 
11


The Company has also entered into written employment agreements with certain other officers and employees. The agreements vary in length of term and may provide for severance payments upon termination without cause or for automatic renewal for successive periods unless notice of termination is given prior to a renewal period.

Messrs. Beard, Mulkey and Ryberg currently serve on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. As of the date hereof, each member of the Nominating and Governance Committee is independent in the judgment of our Board and as required by the listing standards of the Nasdaq. They took action by unanimous written consent one (1) time in connection with the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. The Board adopted a charter for this Committee on October 1, 2003, a copy of which is attached as Appendix A.

Report of the Audit Committee
 
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is established pursuant to our Bylaws and the Audit Committee Charter adopted by the Board of Directors on March 1, 2001, and as amended May 14, 2003. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter, as amended, was attached to the Company’s 2003 Proxy Statement as Appendix A.
 
Management is responsible for our internal controls and the financial reporting process. Our independent auditors are responsible for performing the independent audit of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and for issuing a report thereon. The Audit Committee is comprised of three non-management directors and its responsibility is generally to monitor and oversee the processes described in the Audit Committee Charter.
 
14


As of the date hereof, each member of the Audit Committee is independent in the judgment of our Board and as required by the listing standards of the Nasdaq. The Company has determined that Steven R. Goldberg is a “financial expert” as defined by the SEC’s rules promulgated under Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

With respect to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, in addition to its other work, the Audit Committee:

·    
Reviewed and discussed with the Company’s management and the independent auditors the quarterly reports for the periods ended September 30, 2004, December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005; and reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005.
·    
Discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by generally accepted auditing standards; and
·    
Received from the independent auditors written affirmation of their independence required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 and discussed with the auditors the firm’s independence. The independent auditors also met with the Audit Committee without any members of management being present.

On June 16, 2005, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors approved the termination of KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as our principal independent registered public accounting firm and the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) to serve as the Company’s principal independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending June 30, 2005. We filed a current report on Form 8-K with the SEC on June 22, 2005 to report the change.
 
During our two most recent fiscal years ended June 30, 2004 and the subsequent interim periods through June 16, 2005, there were no disagreements between the Company and KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to KPMG’s satisfaction, would have caused KPMG to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports; and there were no reportable events described under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
 
The audit reports of KPMG on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2004, and for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
 
Based upon the Audit Committee members’ review of the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2005 as prepared by management and audited by Grant Thornton and the discussions with management and the auditors referenced above, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that those audited consolidated financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2005 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The establishment of any such formal policies or procedures in the future is subject to the approval of the Audit Committee.

Report of the Compensation Committee

The Company’s executive compensation program is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which is composed of Messrs. Beard, Mulkey and Picow. As of the date hereof, each member of the Compensation Committee is independent in the judgment of our Board and as required by the listing standards of the Nasdaq. The Committee's general philosophy with respect to compensation of the Company’s executive officers has been to offer competitive compensation designed to attract and retain key executives critical to the long-term success of the Company and to recognize an individual’s contribution and personal performance. The principal component of executive compensation has been base salary. Executive officers may also be granted stock options and bonuses.
 
16


Base Salaries. Base salaries are initially determined by evaluating the responsibilities of the position held and by reference to the competitive marketplace for executive talent through review of an individual’s background and overall expertise in the Company’s line of business and the salaries of similarly situated executives. The Company believes that it is competitive with respect to initial base salaries. Increases to base salaries are also influenced by the performance of the Company and the individual against established goals and objectives.
 
Stock Options. The Company’s 1996 and 2000 Stock Option Plans provide such an incentive through the award of stock options to executive officers and other key employees, although there are currently no shares available for grant under the 1996 Plan. The Stock Option Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, a total of 140,000 options were granted to the Company’s executive officers.
 
Bonuses. The Company maintains an incentive bonus program which provides for the payment of cash bonuses to executive officers and other key employees of the Company based upon the Company’s financial performance and individual performance.
 
Employment Agreements. 

In October 2000, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Richard E. Gathright, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, which was amended and restated in March 2005 to, among other things, extend the term to February 28, 2006 and provide for one year automatic renewals thereafter. The Company has also entered into written employment agreements with certain other officers and employees. The agreements vary in length of term and may provide for severance payments upon a termination without cause or for automatic renews for successive periods unless notice of termination is given prior to a renewal period.
 
Wendell R. Beard, Larry S. Mulkey and Robert S. Picow
 
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
 
There were no Compensation Committee interlocks or insider participation by Messrs. Beard, Mulkey and Picow, all members of the Company's Compensation Committee, during the last fiscal year.
 
Director Compensation
 
The Company compensates each non-employee director with a director’s fee of $1,500 per quarter. In addition, the Company’s directors are reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expense incurred by them for attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors or committees thereof. Richard N. Hamlin, a former director, received a quarterly fee of $2,500 plus reimbursement of out of pocket expenses on account of his service as chairman of the Audit Committee during the 1st, 2nd and 3rd quarters of fiscal 2004. Mr. Mulkey received a quarterly fee of $2,500 plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses on account of his service as chairman of the Audit Committee during the 4th quarter of fiscal 2004. Since he became chairman of the Audit Committee in July of 2005, Mr. Goldberg has received the same quarterly fees in fiscal 2005.

17


Each non-employee who served as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors as of May 10, 2001, the effective date of the Directors Plan, and each non-employee who is elected or otherwise appointed as one of the Company’s directors thereafter, received a fully vested option to purchase 20,000 shares of stock exercisable at the closing price on the date of grant. In addition, on the last day of each fiscal quarter while the Directors Plan is in effect, each non-employee director receives an additional grant of an option to purchase 625 shares of stock at the closing price on the business day immediately preceding the last day in the quarter. Further, in accordance with the Directors Plan, additional options may be granted to non-employee directors from time to time on a discretionary basis.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
 
C. Rodney O’Connor, a director of the Company, is also Chairman of Cameron Associates, Inc., a financial consulting and investor relations public relations firm, which has provided investor relations services to the Company since 1997. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, the Company paid $78,000 to Cameron Associates, Inc. for such services.
 
The Company believes that the foregoing transaction was entered into in good faith and on fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to the Company than those that would be available for comparable transactions in arm’s length dealings with unrelated third parties.
