This news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's prospectus supplement dated February 23, 2022 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated January 14, 2022
VANCOUVER, BC, April 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Atmofizer Technologies Inc. (the "Company" or "Atmofizer") (CSE: ATMO) (Frankfurt: J3K) (OTCQB: ATMFF) announces today that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the "USPTO") has issued a patent related to the Company's air and water purification technology.
The issued patent, titled, "Ultra-Fine Particle Aggregation, Neutralization and Filtration" (US Patent Application No. 17/471,610) provides broad protection for the application of the Company's air and water purification technology.
"This US patent provides protection for our intellectual property and further validation of our novel approach to air and water purification technology and enables Atmofizer to confidently pursue further development of its technology," said Atmofizer CEO, Olivier Centner. "This patent is a critical step in protecting our technology and establishing ourselves as the leaders in purifying air from even the smallest ultra-fine particles. COVID-19 has raised awareness of the importance of indoor air quality and the dangers posed by ultra-fine particles and the market is growing exponentially."
"The importance of this issued patent for Atmofizer is that the patent covers Atmofizer's current commercial embodiment of its flagship air purifier," said Atmofizer Patent Attorney, Joel Weiss. "The innovations claimed in the issued patent represent important steps forward in providing clean and comfortable air in today's confined living spaces."
Atmofizer has entered into a debt settlement agreement ("Debt Settlement Agreement") with an arm's length business development and media consultant of the Company, for debt in the aggregate amount of $225,000 (the "Debt"). To satisfy the Debt, the Company will issue an aggregate of 2,500,000 common shares in the authorized share structure of the Company ("Common Shares") at a deemed price of $0.09 per share, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Debt Settlement Agreement.
The Common Shares issued are subject to a statutory hold period that will expire four months and one day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.
All amounts are in Canadian dollars unless stated otherwise.
Atmofizer's consumer and industrial solutions are based on its patent-protected and patent pending technology for ultrafine particle agglomeration and neutralization. This capability creates a revolutionary and more efficient method for addressing the wide range of dangerous nano-scale particles, viruses and bacteria that are too small to be effectively managed by conventional HEPA filters and ultraviolet lights. Atmofizer plans to disrupt the air treatment industry by improving air safety and purification efficiency while lowering customers' operational costs.
Atmofizing air refers to the process of using ultrasonic acoustic waves to agglomerate (cluster together) small particles into a larger target that is then radiated by ultraviolet light to neutralize their harmful properties, making the air you breath less hazardous to your health. Using units that atmofize air in tandem with HEPA filters can make the HEPA filters work more efficiently, enable the use of a less-powerful filter and result in a cleaner and longer-lasting filter that reduces operating costs and is less of a health hazard to clean or replace.
Atmofizer is patent-pending and patent-protected sole source of technology to atmofize air and is applying its proprietary technology in consumer and industrial air purification products currently manufactured under the Atmofizer brand, as well as in retail and commercial devices produced by other companies that integrate Atmofizer technology into their own products under license. Atmofizer's owned and licensed product lines include wearable, portable and mobile use for personal air treatment, as well as larger systems to handle higher air volumes for commercial, industrial, institutional and residential applications.
