A Family of Products and Services

1. A Family of Products and Services Ensuring Safe Water During Emergencies for Critical Infrastructure and Government Brand Water Purification

2. Joint Commission Standards • Surveyors evaluate readiness for ALL emergency situations within the framework of the 6 critical functions: • Communication - the way information is shared internally & externally, redundancy • Resources & Assets - suppliers, availability, utilization, replenishment, managing to maintain patient safety  • Safety & Security - patient safety is first priority, providing a safe & secure environment, controlling flow of people in & out • Staff Roles & Responsibilities - role of each staff member in an emergency, likely to change during an event, practice & drill • Utilities Management- ensuring uninterrupted function of utilities - electricity, water, fuel, medical gases, ventilation • Patient Clinical & Support Activities - clinical needs of patients during an emergency, alternate standards of care when infrastructure & resources are taxed

3. Joint Commission Standards EM.02.02.09 Strategies for Managing Utilities Identify alternative means for providing: • Electricity • Water for consumption and essential care • Water for equipment and sanitary purposes • Fuel for building operations and essential transportation • Other essential utilities: • Ventilation • Medical gas/vacuum

4. Who is First Water • We ensure the availability of potable water for: • Hospitals • Emergency Management • First Responder Response • International Infrastructure • Philanthropic Organizations • Sustainability • Disaster Relief • We are headquartered in Atlanta, GA with an additional operation office in Winston Salem, NC. • We are the only credentialed water disaster strike team authorized in the United States and we operate under the Georgia Emergency Management Agency. • We provide both portable and stationary water purification systems that operate on AC, DC and solar power. All products are manufactured in North Carolina. • We manufacture in an ISO 9001 facility in Sanford, NC and have our laboratory for emerging technologies in Greensboro, NC.

5. The Problem is Substantial • Surprise events like earthquakes, tornadoes, broken water mains, mud slides, etc. do not allow time to stockpile bottled water • Even anticipated events like hurricanes, ice storms, earthquake after-shocks, flooding, expanding wildfires, etc. leave communities without necessary amounts of potable water • Impediments like standing water on the roadways, trees down, electrical wires down, mud, etc. stop trucks from being able to deliver the small amounts in their inventory to a facility • Water vendor contracts typically have “escape clauses” to get out of having to always have enough water, or to even supply water at all • Many vendors have multiple MOU’s, and they will typically make sure that whatever water they have goes to their customers that have bought the most water from them in the past • Perhaps most importantly, bottled water can’t support showering, ice production, hygiene, beverage production, food preparation, laundry support, dish washing, community support, evacuation support, etc.

6. What Do You Prepare For • Earthquakes • “Even in this developed country, supplies are just not getting where they are needed” -Atlanta Journal Constitution, 6 days after Japan earthquake and tsunami • Floods • “Flooding and debris on the streets are stopping nearly all aid from getting through.” -CNN, 7 days after mid-west seasonal flooding • Hurricanes • “It’s been nearly two weeks and people in St. Bernard parish still don’t even have anything even as basic as water to drink and clean with.” -New York Times, 13 days after Hurricane Katrina • Wildfires • “The community is an island inside the fire as rescuers try to find a way in – and out.” -USA Today, 13 days into trying to control a multi-state wild fire • Broken Water Mains • “There are 240,000 water main breaks per year in the US.” -US EPA 2007 Aging Water Infrastructure Report

7. Why First Water Water on Site, Not Brought In: • The solutions from First Water support Joint Commission 96 Hour requirements to sustain healthcare facilities in an emergency, including prevention of diversion, cancellation of services, evacuation, etc. • In nearly all situations, ample contaminated fresh water (salt free) will be available through many sources to keep a hospital operational for months if required • The “green” solutions have been designed specifically for hospital needs, including innovative space-saving designs and patented safety features

8. Source Water Municipally Treated: Some sediment from tank. Municipally Treated: Little or no sediment. Not Treated: Sediment will cause more filter changes. Escalation of Event

9. The Clean Water Process • Mechanical Filtration: • Contaminated fresh water is mechanically cleaned and made clear through four stages of specialized water filters and virus media (filtration and adsorption down to an effective size of 0.2 microns) • Carbon block for odor-free and great tasting water. • Disinfection: • Biological contaminates such as bacteria are neutralized by exposure to Ultraviolet light • Optional Flex-Chlorinator • Safeguards: • Systems feature true safety over-rides such as “instant off” • Patented technology automatically shuts off the unit when the UV bulb becomes unsafe due to age, wiring issues, or loss of amperage.
