Forward-looking statements

This presentation includes “forward-looking information”. For example, statements about the opportunities for repeat business; thepossibility or expectation of additional orders; growth in existing markets; entry into new markets; order backlog; introduction of newproducts and services; establishment and growth of new distribution channels; growth opportunities and strategies; conversion ofexisting orders into revenues; are all forward looking information. Such forward looking information reflects Thermal EnergyInternational’s (“TEI”) current expectations with respect to future events and are based on information currently available tomanagement. Forward-looking information involves significant known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. For example,existing and new customers may not place orders for any number of reasons; fulfilment of orders, installation of product and activation ofproduct could all be delayed for a number of reasons, some of which are outside of TEI’s control, which would result in anticipatedrevenues from such projects being delayed or in the most serious cases eliminated; TEI may not be successful in identifying anddeveloping new products and our new or existing products may not result in new orders or gain acceptance in new geographical orindustrial markets; we may not be successful in establishing new distribution channels or such new channels may not be successful; ourgrowth strategies may not be successful or result in the anticipated growth and orders received by TEI may not turn into revenue in thetime frame anticipated, or at all, due to many factors, some of which are outside of TEI’s control, including but not limited to TEI’s abilityto deliver products on time and in accordance with specifications and the continuing financial viability of the customer. Readers are alsoreferred to the risk factors outlined in our management’s discussion and analysis available at www.SEDAR.com. Should one or more ofthese risks or uncertainties materialize, or should assumptions underlying the forward-looking information prove incorrect, actual results,performance or achievements could vary materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking informationcontained in this presentation.

Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. The forward-looking information is made as of the date of thispresentation and TEI does not assume any obligation to update or revise it to reflect new events or circumstances, except as required bylaw.

The term “EBITDAS” as used in this presentation is not a recognized measure under IFRS, does not have a standardized meaningprescribed by IFRS and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. This measure isprovided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results ofoperations from management’s perspective and should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financialinformation reported under IFRS. Please refer to our management’s discussion and analysis for the applicable period for a reconciliationof EBITDAS to Net income (loss), the closest IFRS measure.
