Fort Worth, TX, Nov. 20, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Water Now, Inc. (“Water Now” or the “Company”) (OTC: WTNW) a leading water purification solutions company, hereby provides additional details on its previously announced five-year Exclusive Distributor Agreement (the “Agreement”) between Hydraspin USA, Inc. and a Texas-based oil producer (the “Distributor”).
The Agreement provides that Hydraspin USA shall provide the units to the Distributor at no cost. Hydraspin will in turn receive 92.5% of net revenues for the first 10 installed units and 85% of the net revenues for all subsequently installed units. The Company is currently in negotiations with potential lending partners with a track record of financing oil field equipment to fund the acquisition of the units.
The Company is in the process of securing necessary financing to allow for the following projected installations: two units by the end of January 2020, two units in February 2020, four units in March 2020, six units in April 2020, six units in May 2020, and six units in June 2020.
For the Distributor to maintain the exclusivity granted in the Agreement, it must deploy products in 25 new locations during each 12-month period following the effective date of November 12, and all customer locations must generate, in the aggregate, an average of 7,500 barrels of water with at least a 2% oil content in each per day. If the Agreement is extended beyond the initial term of five years, the number of customer locations to be secured to maintain exclusivity shall be increased to 50 per year.
The Company and the Distributor estimate that the first 25 units deployed will generate approximately $40 million in gross annual revenues for Hydraspin.
David King, Chief Executive Officer of Water Now, stated, “We wanted to take the opportunity to provide further details on what is truly a transformative agreement for Water Now. Our technology has been validated after a wide range of on-site demos and independent laboratory testing for the quality of the oil extracted, proving the massive potential for our Hydraspin technology within the oil industry.”
