                                      MARKET
                            sales are being driven by both higher energy prices, existing and
new state and local air quality regulations, federal, state, and local grants and tax incentives. As
generating costs continue to fall and as public concern about climate change escalates, the
world is fast turning to wind for its electricity. Since 1995, world wind generating capacity has
increased an astounding fivefold. In stark contrast, the use of coal—the principal alternative for
generating electricity—peaked in 1996 and has declined by 6 percent since then. The VATG is
based on proven technology that was developed by Brandt Goldsworthy in the late 1980’s, and
possesses competitive advantages over other wind devices and alternative renewable energy
technologies. The VATG systems in the 1-kilowatt to 1million watt range of rated output can be
installed in series on roofs and open areas of office buildings, shopping centers, and other
commercial facilities in urban areas with low to moderate wind speed conditions with no
environmental impact on the surrounding community. For this reason, Prevailing Energy will first
target the premium priced, $12 Billion worldwide secondary generation power market (defined
as less than 2.5MW grid-connected or non-grid connected locations). Prevailing Energy is
already focusing on a range of commercial opportunities in each of four key geographical
regions: North America, Europe, Japan and China, and Australia.

Pei Executive Summary 2 62909

  • 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PREVAILING ENERGY INC. 6/28/2009 COMPANY OVERVIEW: Prevailing Energy, Inc (“Prevailing Energy” or the Transaction: “Company”), formed in 2005, is a developer, manufacturer and $3 million equity investment supplier of patent pending vertical axis wind turbine technology. The Industry: Company’s specific target markets are the world wide business and Vertical axis wind turbine residential markets. The company is presently located at 4943 Marin technology Drive, Oceanside, CA. Collectively, management has many years of Contacts: wind turbine and electronic technology experience specifically in the Larry Frew areas of vertical axis wind technology development, sales and CEO Prevailing Energy Inc. business development.

Over the past six years global wind power 5. Execute term sheet capacity continues to grow at average accumulative rate of 29% per year. TRENDS AND OPPORTUNITY: Currently, vertical axis wind turbine MARKET sales are being driven by both higher energy prices, existing and new state and local air quality regulations, federal, state, and local grants and tax incentives. As generating costs continue to fall and as public concern about climate change escalates, the world is fast turning to wind for its electricity. Since 1995, world wind generating capacity has increased an astounding fivefold. In stark contrast, the use of coal—the principal alternative for generating electricity—peaked in 1996 and has declined by 6 percent since then. The VATG is based on proven technology that was developed by Brandt Goldsworthy in the late 1980’s, and possesses competitive advantages over other wind devices and alternative renewable energy technologies. The VATG systems in the 1-kilowatt to 1million watt range of rated output can be installed in series on roofs and open areas of office buildings, shopping centers, and other commercial facilities in urban areas with low to moderate wind speed conditions with no environmental impact on the surrounding community. For this reason, Prevailing Energy will first target the premium priced, $12 Billion worldwide secondary generation power market (defined as less than 2.5MW grid-connected or non-grid connected locations). Prevailing Energy is already focusing on a range of commercial opportunities in each of four key geographical regions: North America, Europe, Japan and China, and Australia. PRODUCTS: Product/Description Competitive Advantage Zephyr 150KW to 1MW Patent • Simpler: One moving part.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PREVAILING ENERGY INC. 6/28/2009 Product/Description Competitive Advantage This VATG is designed for larger • Direct drive: There are no gears, belts, or brushes in the applications such as wind farms or turbine assembly. Having no gears, belts or brushes also improves the industrial applications.

At the present time the transmissions of the horizontals to sell Power to the customers at a turbines last less than a year. So maintenance costs, down time discounted rate than what they are (months), and replacement issues are a serious problems. paying today. Prevailing Energy will • No Threat to Birds or Bats: The VATG design greatly reduces determine a project size and value to the the risk of bird kills occurring because the lower outer diameter end user. rotational speeds keep the turbine visible and safe from bird collisions. At the present time there is litigation against the Altamont Wind Farm by Environmental Agencies for bird kills. CEC estimates there are 1,766 to 4,721 bird kills a year. The courts have mandated they shut down for the winter months to try to protect the birds causing an estimated 9 million dollar loss in generation. Zephyr 3KW to 150KW Patent • Less Noise Impact: The conventional wind turbines currently Pending available today cannot be installed in the vicinity of animals or people because the spinning blades of these turbines make loud irritating sounds while rotating. The VATG of Prevailing Energy is virtually silent. Due to the convenient size of these • Not directional: No wind vaneing. There is no mechanism to VATG, the market that fits with them is keep the turbine facing the wind; this makes the system simpler and the residential, small business and Farm more efficient. This allows Prevailing Energy to have a longer warranty Market.

The VATG circumstance, Prevailing Energy would will require only 25-30 feet of height from ground level to do the same provide the VATG’s to the end users for job and will meet many city and local height requirements for such a their power requirements. structure. Both the turbines and the generators are stackable, increasing power output capacity from a single footprint. Zephyr 1KW to 3KW Patent • Reduced Cost of Kilowatt Hour Usage: Installation is less Pending expensive than similar installations of conventional Wind Turbines. This VATG is designed specifically for the Because of the simplicity of design and the direct drive mechanisms Marine or Recreational Vehicle markets. make the VATG cost less than conventional Turbines. The maintenance These markets currently utilize an oil cost is reduced due to a simpler direct drive mechanism and the based powered generator that have Turbine is mounted closer to the ground limitations such as noise and cost of the fuel. The Zephyr 1KW or 3KW eliminates both of these limitations. • Less Visual Impact: Because of the compact size and displacement of the VATG, the VATG will stand less obtrusively within the surrounding community and can be painted to blend in with its surroundings. ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Prevailing Energy has developed and is currently commercializing the world's first economically viable and scalable Vertical Axis Wind Turbine electric generation system. Prevailing Energy’s VATG Technology offers a proven, low-cost, reliable, easily scalable, non-polluting, aesthetically pleasing, non-audible and safe source of renewable energy. The Turbine Generator can operate in low wind speed environments. Prevailing Energy Has patent pending technology that protects our market share for future growth. We are developing a new type of Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Generator. The sizes are completely scalable and we are investigating diameters from 10 inches to 30 feet. While the 10-inch model has a predicted output of 12 Watts in a 10 mph wind the 30-foot VATG output is to be more than 5000 Watts in the same wind.
