Seeking a Solution to the World's Water Problems, WaterPure International Attracts Major Media Attention

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(Business Wire)--
WaterPure International, Inc. (OTCBB:WPUR) has attracted major
media attention as they market their Atmospheric Water Generators
(AWG). Water-cooler type devices, AWGs extract moisture from the
atmosphere through a condensation process transforming the moisture
into pure, healthy drinking water. FOX News Orlando visited Company
headquarters to shoot a revealing TV News show about the AWG and its
possible use in water deprived areas, homes, and offices. The news
piece (link below) was aired Monday, May 19 on the 10 P.M. News.

"We appear to be more popular since the reports that fresh water
supplies have been dramatically reduced in many areas with water
shortages predicted within five years. In seeking a solution to the
world's water problems, which also include the expensive and
repetitious buying and delivery of water in plastic bottles, our AWGs
are beginning to attract major media attention. Since a single AWG
unit will generate enough pure clean drinking water for one person for
11 cents a gallon, the public is encouraged to use them as much as
possible to help alleviate the problem," notes Paul Lipschutz,
Chairman of WaterPure International.

About Atmospheric Water Generators (AWGs)

The AWG extracts moisture from the atmosphere through a
condensation process and transforms it creating absolutely pure,
healthy drinking water. Multiple air and water filtration systems
remove particulate matter smaller than .01 microns. Utilizing high
intensity UV (ultra violet) rays, it eliminates any microorganisms
including bacteria and viruses. Operating on standard 110v power in
the USA, it is extremely efficient and uses a minimal amount of energy
to produce water. The unit requires no plumbing, water lines, or pipes
and is easily installed. Driven by a microcomputer control system, it
will stop generating water when full. The WaterPure purification
system employs special filters to remove any unpleasant tastes or odor
that may be present in the air.
