  38. Drinking Water Evolution Technology Evolution Bottles Converted Bottles Filtration Only Filtration & UV Firewall™ 2014 1980 Consumer Branding Cost Taste, Convenience Health Benefits & Environmental Growth Drivers

  39. What is Firewall™? • Until now, advanced POU water dispensers have utilised UV technology to kill bacteria and pathogens in the tank. Whilst very effective, this was not designed to eliminate back contamination via the tap from outside the machine affecting the water dispensed • In 2010, Waterlogic unveiled a technology to address this issue which delivers a level of water purification previously unseen in POU • In the time taken for the water to flow through the spiral (0.8 seconds) the water dispensed is 99.9999% pure Interior view of Firewall™ chamber showing UV effect at all points Waterlogic WL4 ‘Firewall’ model water dispenser 5,000 independent tests prove water is 99.9999% pure 100% of the time

  40. Firewall Developments Strategic positioning of the Edge: Hybrid Firewall Drink Pure Messaging: Crowded markets: Natural/ Healthy Un-crowded markets: Purity + Safety Dr. Gerba – renowned expert, currently testing Firewall against other taps and specifically the efficacy of Firewall against the WHO standard for “Highly Protective Waters” (results to go public later in 2013) Initial report states that: “The Waterlogic WL 250 easily met the removal requirements for the USEPA and NSF for a microbiological water purifier, and the WHO requirements for “protective”.” “…all of the oocysts observed in the effluent were inactivated achieving the WHO classification of the system as “highly protective”.” Ghost image of the Waterlogic Edge Hybrid Purifier showing the Firewall Charles P. Gerba, Ph.D. is an internationally recognized environmental microbiologist and Professor of Environmental Microbiology in the Departments of Microbiology and Immunology, and Soil, Water and Environmental Science, at the University of Arizona Dr. Gerba has authored more than 400 articles including several text books in environmental microbiology and pollution science He is a member of the U.S. EPA's Science Advisory Board Committees on Drinking Water and Research Strategies

  41. Technology (pre-Firewall™) • Removes most contaminants, insecticides and pesticides • Removes chlorine and water borne tastes and odours • Improves water taste • WQA Gold Seal approved • Options to suit local water conditions Filtration • Harnesses the power of ultra violet light for water purification – no chemicals added to water • Features a UV lamp in the centre of the cold tank • Destroys the growth of bacteria by destroying its DNA core • Effective against all bacteria and pathogens • Waterlogic technology incorporates unique Automatic Purification Monitoring System which triggers an alarm should UV lamp fail In-tank UV • Protects the plastic surfaces and surrounding the dispensing of Waterlogic units • A second defence hygiene mechanism after Filtration and UV • Bacteria which come into contact with BioCote® protected surfaces, breakdown rendering them unable to reproduce and further causing them to die • Exclusive to Waterlogic BioCote The problem still remains … back contamination

  42. Patents and Certifications • Patent pending technology: published on 5 May 2011 means technology is “prior art” • International certifications prove the highest levels of quality and safety at Waterlogic and create a market barrier to entry • Waterlogic is recognised by the US Water Quality Association as being able to use the term “water purifier” in connection with its products (WQA NSF P231) • The Company’s technology is the only one certified as able to guarantee 99.9999% pure water 100% of the time (WQA NSF/ANSI) Highest levels of quality and certification provide a barrier to entry and give Waterlogic a competitive advantage
