Cecil Bond Kyte, Chairman of Save The World Air, Inc., commented, "In my recent meeting with Steve Nappi, Director of Tech Transfer Operations for the University, we discussed STWA's plans for the future and the new team that is in place to bring these technologies to market. I believed then that we had a very productive meeting, and with this official extension of the cure period I believe Temple is casting a vote of confidence that we sincerely appreciate.

"STWA was given terms that we feel are fair and reasonable. We feel optimistic that we will be able to meet our obligations under the extension and continue our work to bring the ELEKTRA™, MagChargR™ and EcoChargR™ technologies to market."
