Summary of First Test • The test demonstrated Proof-of-Concept by showing systematic condensation on prescribed location. • Water column height was the single control parameter. • No Moving Parts are in the system • Cell is representative of multi-cell systems • While production was low, with considerable implementation difficulties the system still allowed for demonstration of heat of vaporization recapture in a simple system. 04/10/09

Safety: Proposed Systems •No exotic materials: Food Grade Materials Only •No high voltage: Pumping Only •No Moving Parts: Please refer to slide 14 •No high weights above thoroughfares •Automated sensing and remote notification: Please refer to slide 16 •Structured to be secured against high wind and other natural events •Special Note: As a solar collector, high internal temperatures are anticipated. Breech of enveloping insulation is required to access these areas. •Special Note: In the event that water flow is terminated, cooling is discontinued, and given an extended period in the sun deformations can occur that will focus high intensity light on areas not intended to support it, temperatures may rise and ignition may occur. This is planned for and multiple fire extinguishers will be onsite at all times. Additionally, Flow Monitors will be linked to paging systems manned at all times by World View Water Staff and Security personnel who will be notified if flow stops. Continuous video monitoring will be used by security and World View Water Staff. Special monitored testing will be performed to identify susceptibility to this condition in the course of the study. 04/10/09

Reliability One of the primary goals of the present study as shown in the timeline in the start memo, is to establish product life and lifecycle including recyclability, failure mechanisms, and means of remediation. The duration that the systems have been run is far too short to establish any formal reliability metrics, although I have personally placed a facsimile of a cell in the elements and it showed substantial integrity for over one year. Establishing Techniques of effectively sealing the structural elements of the system is a fundamental element of this primary goal.
