, by synchronizing the
ionization on-off with increasingly accurate weather information and forecasting. RWT is in the process of partnering with ground-based
radars and satellite imaging for optimal and powerful real time weather forecasting data access.

In addition, RWT expects
that its systems will be able to be manufactured and installed in approximately four to six months, which differs from the desalination
process that generally takes several years to obtain permits and build associated energy generation. RWT believes that the expected rapid
time-to-market and anticipated use of off-grid solar and wind power systems will provide an advantage in addressing water scarcity in
the coming decades.

Initial installation would be more costly than the cloudseeding approaches
and requires a small amount of semi-permanent land to operate from. However, RWT’s system would be able to operate continually up
to 365 days per year, and key post-installation costs would be modest, including electricity and monitoring. Once installed, the system
is expected to use approximately 600 kwH of energy consumption per year. Reliance on natural updrafts would limit targeting but would
minimize energy use and avoid using chemicals in the rain enhancement process. Ultimately, some of the water that condenses due to RWT’s
operation will come out of nearby oceans per the established “water cycle”.

In Oman, over a six-year
randomized third-party trial from 2013 to 2018, an ionization rainfall generation system based on existing technology generated an average
of approximately 16% of additional rainfall according to results published by the National Institute for Applied Statistics Research Australia
(“NIASRA”), a third-party research organization, in the International Statistical Review. Three years after this trial occurred,
news reporters in Oman continued to report enhanced rainfall as compared to prior years when the hardware was not operating. In addition,
trials performed by third-party individuals funded by the National Key Research and Development Plan of China and the National Natural
Science Foundation of China in the Wushaoling and Liupan Mountains in China also indicate that an ionization rainfall generation system
helped increase rainfall in the area by 20%. RWT believes significant improvements from software, synchronization with real-time weather,
and broader placement would lead to even greater rainfall generation. Furthermore, RWT believes it can create an ionization rainfall generation
team that will be well capitalized, with the full suite of expertise required, to commercialize and scale ionization rainfall generation.
