 and Fortune 500 companies all recognize the urgency of action as water becomes a social
justice issue. 

Traditional cloudseeding
involves the use of chemicals dispensed from aircraft at precise moments of raincloud formation, creating potential risks (such as environmental
concerns and unintended downstream consequences, for example, small concentrations of chemical substances affecting cloudseeding-produced
rain). Desalination plants offer an alternative technology for increasing the supply of potable water but such process is highly energy
intensive, expensive and requires transportation from the coast to inland clients.

Ionization rainfall generation
technology allows for lower operating costs at scale and provides a method that does not use chemicals in the rainfall generation process.
Both chemical and ionic approaches have been utilized for weather modification, including rainfall generation, hail reduction, and cloud
dispersal.

Historically, piloted aircraft (e.g. cropping) or drones delivered
chemicals into clouds at the right time in order to enhance rainfall. However, ionized rainfall generation technology is ground-based,
capitalizing on natural updraft airflow. Based on third party trials in Oman, the operating range of RWT’s ionized rainfall generation
equipment is expected to be considerable, as it will be reliant upon natural updrafts to carry the ions into clouds with sufficient water
vapor to condense and form rain droplets. Such third-party testing has demonstrated that the equipment’s reliance on natural updrafts
would result in it being powered by a minimal source of energy, approximately 600kWh annually based on 100 hours of operation per month,
which is approximately the amount required in one year by an average household oven. Moreover, as the technology is developed, RWT intends
to continue working on ways to maintain low and efficient energy usage.

Ionized rainfall generation technology does not allow rainfall to be
created. It may enhance the amount and possibility of rainfall when conditions are appropriate in the atmosphere and cloud formation is
underway in an approximately 40-mile radius, according to third-party testing. The third-party experiments in Oman, using ionizers based
on existing rainfall generation technology, indicate that the majority of the rainfall generation occurs within approximately 60 miles
of the ground-based ionizers. This range allows for placement of the equipment to optimize for the cost of land leases, as well as predominant
wind flows.

By installing multiple systems at appropriate ranges away from the
desired impact area, RWT’s approach would allow for enhanced rainfall with high level, broad-based targeting
