http://www.MyBrez.com - Driven by the need to help those who suffer from the emotional and physical issues of snoring, AirWare developed a new, innovative and clinically proven option - Brez | stop snoring device. It took seven years for David Dolezal, inventor and innovator, along with a team of experts in medicine, science and business, to create a stop snoring device and system for dealing with a problem faced by so many for so long. Brez targets snoring where it starts - in the nose - and is effective, comfortable and natural. Our research has shown that Brez not only provides snoring relief, but may also relieve congestion. Brez's exceptional design as well as its proven performance make it unique in a market dominated by external nasal dilation products. At AirWare, our culture of caring is our simple philosophy. And our knowledge means nothing if not shared. Because for us, caring comes as naturally as breathing. Visit our blog: http://www.snorum.com

History| The Brẽz Story

David Dolezal, Chairman & Founder, has a 30-year construction management and ownership history

Far too many times he noticed that his workers refused to wear protective face masks due to lack of functionality/practicality, exposing them daily to pollutants, toxins, and contaminates

Over the next five years, Dolezal assembled a team of experts in science, medicine, business engineering and marketing to design a targeted, effective, comfortable, and natural, nasal dilation and premium personal filtration system

Research has revealed multiple uses including snoring relief, improving athletic performance, lessening congestion and allergy symptoms and temporary relief for deviated septum. Brẽz’s exceptional design and performance rivals the only leader in the nasal dilation market category to date, Breathe Right TM

The Problem | Snoring Statistics

Primary snoring (snoring without apnea) is often the result of congestion (narrowing of the nasal passageway) or relaxation of the nasal passages which cause the nasal tissues to vibrate during sleep. Snoring sound levels are the result of that vibration.

Sources: Mayo Clinic Foundation for Medical Education and Research 2008; US Census Bureau 2008

Most people do not know what causes snoring, leading to use of ineffective options… treatments that revolve around clearing blockage in the throat, or exterior devices.

60% of the US adult population snore =217+ Million people

Our core target of adults 30+ = 52.6+ Million people

About 49% of couples say they lose at least two hours of sleep on nights when a partner’s snoring is disruptive

The Solution | Brẽz Premium Nasal Breathing Aids

What can prevent snoring?

Eliminating or decreasing the vibration will reduce snoring

What are the solutions?2 ways to decrease or reduce the vibration:

• Open up the area• Increase the structural integrity (firm it up)

Why the current products on the market do not work• Throat Spray- Limited effectiveness• Weight Loss- Works if you can maintain it• Positional Therapy - Disrupts sleep in both partners• Outer nasal devices- Placement issues

Nose shapeInternal congestion

How do Brẽz Premium Nasal Breathing Aids work?Brẽz is a targeted breathing aid that goes exactly where help is needed: IN THE NOSE ITSELF

Brẽz expands and supports the interior cavity of the nasal passages to optimize airflow into the nostrils.

Snoring causes both the snorer and the bed partner to wake more frequently at night, robbing both of truly restful sleep. Snorers sleep more quietly with Brẽz, enabling both to sleep better and wake refreshed.

National PRIn January of 2009, AirWare sent out our first National press release, announcing our arrival. The response and coverage was incredible.

Sample of Appearances:

WebIn March of 2009 AirWare launched a National online banner ad campaign select markets reaching our target and exceeding our expectations for campaign performance.

First week impressions:

Direct MarketingIn February of 2009 AirWare completed a National direct mail campaign introducing Brez to APhA Pharmacists. We received several comments from Pharmacists across the US commenting on the effectiveness of Brez and asked for additional information.

Sample of comments: I am a pharmacist and got a sample of Brez in the mail. My husband wore one last night and I slept wonderfully!! I did

not hear him snore once! He said after about 5 minutes, he didn't notice he was even wearing it. I'd definitely recommend this product.I am a pharmacist and received Brez in the mail as a sample. I almost threw it out, but decided to keep it for my

husband. He has a deviated septum and has snored forever. I gave it for him to wear, and it was a miracle! He didn't snore at all! He loves this product and has asked me to buy him some more. He has never tried anything similar (like breathrite strips), but he loves this. It is definitely worth a try.
