Inc.(“I-Des and Dry Vac”) whereby Global Green has obtained additional rights to sell DryVac units in the State of Utah, USA. In consideration of the additional territory, Global Green has paid an additional distributor fee to I-Des and Dry Vac in the amount of $150,000. The entering into of the original Distribution Agreement among the parties was announced on December 23, 2011.
“In my discussions with Global Green Matrix,” said Steve Rosenthal of I-DES, Inc., “I have mentioned the significant opportunities for the operation of DryVac units in various locations in the U.S. We have been approached by a number of operators in the State of Utah to provide DryVac units for their sites. Since we believe strongly in the relationship we have established with Global Green, we offered Global Green the distributorship for Utah first, and are pleased that they agreed to expand into this burgeoning market.”
Randy Hayward, President and CEO of Global Green, states: “The State of Utah has over the past few years seen significant increases in permit applications for drilling as well as interest in energy related rights-of-way and unconventional energy resources such as oil shale and sands. Utah has a myriad of opportunities for petroleum exploration and development and with GGX now obtaining the rights to sell DryVac Units in Utah we are ready to take advantage of this expanding market.”
