Benefits for Office & Mixed-use Properties
In addition to similar cost, water quality and branding benefits for
hotels, Office and mixed-use properties can also benefit from higher
margins and new revenue streams:
In an increasingly
competitive sector,
many landlords are
looking to LEED (or
similar ¡°green¡±
certifications) as a
point of
differentiation
Studies have shown
that rents in LEED
buildings are as
much as 34.5%
higher and
vacancies 4.2%
lower then in non-
LEED buildings
Source: Addressing
China's Water Scarcity
¨¹? Water Recycling can add 10 points (ref: LEED Certified ¨C min. 40pts)
¨¹? LEED buildings outperform others in terms of rent margins and
occupancy days
¨¹?As water prices rise, landlords service fees to ENVIRONTECH
stay at the original baseline level (covering 70% of their water needs).

Risks Factors
- Environtech requires this first round of capital to assure we cover the costs of
our market penetration schedule.
- Cash flow risks are mitigated through either monthly or quarterly service fee
payments over several years, which are paid by only reputable, industry
leading customers.
- We have a financing option built into our model that mitigates risks of capital
cost outlay.
- Our proprietary design has not been extensively tested in the market.
Environtech mitigates this risk because
- We are not dependant on any one technology. Our design is patent pending,
and allows integration of currently available proven technologies
- Our core know-how and experience stems from decades in advanced
wastewater treatment methodologies, and in fulfilling challenging engineering,
construction and installation assignments.
- As we deliver more customized projects, we will continue developing our
treatment designs and processes.
- We have budgeted for continued, in-house technology design research and
development.

We expect competitors to enter these markets. Environtech will compete

- extensive know-how, experience, and first mover position
- patented design
- delivery of best-in-class project execution and service
- market development strategy targeting only reputable, industry leading
hotel and mixed-use commercial property customers
- quality reputation building via customer satisfaction and ¡°green¡± branding
Our innovative business model is new and not completely tested. Our first six
months communicating with our target customers has created strong buy-in to
the model, which provides a complete solution customers have not seen
previously.
Senior executives have ownership stakes in the company. The design and
engineering leadership have successfully cooperated on several large
challenging wastewater projects. Our strategic partners are leaders in their
respective fields, freeing up management to focus on grow the company.
