STWA Issues Letter to Shareholders

SANTA BARBARA, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/08/13 -- Save The World Air, Inc. (STWA) (OTCQB: ZERO), a developer of energy efficiency technologies in the multi-billion dollar oil pipeline and diesel engine markets, today announced the Company has issued a Letter to Shareholders:

To Our Shareholders,

It is my great pleasure to report that this past year has been one marked by strong forward movement in the commercialization of STWA's AOT™ Viscosity Reduction Systems technology and, equally important, in the strengthening of the Company's fiscal and patent protection structures. Due to the Company's tight focus on ensuring our equipment is optimized for commercial deployment, STWA is exceptionally well positioned to supply the multi-billion dollar oil and energy industries with technologies uniquely capable of solving the pressing challenges facing today's leaner, efficiency-minded energy suppliers.

The progress we've made since our 2012 Shareholder Letter is further evidenced by several significant milestones in the Company's history:

During the first quarter of 2013, STWA entered into two new non-disclosure agreements, increasing the number of multi-national companies with which we are jointly evaluating the deployment of AOT™ technologies from five to seven, including several entities dominant in emerging nations with fast-growing oil consumption. These evaluations come as a result of a year and a half of executing on a decisive business development strategy with Upstream and Midstream operations in North America, South America, Africa, Austral-Asia, Asia and the Middle East.

To further generate overseas awareness, STWA executives conducted a series of institutional investor meetings in Geneva and Zurich and met with senior management decision-makers from a $20 billion market cap UK-based energy company with operational holdings on multiple continents. During this trip STWA also hosted an informal investor gathering in London, England.

We're pleased to announce that STWA has entered into a regional distributorship with newly formed North African energy equipment distributor Energy Tech Africa (ETA) to make STWA's product suite available to oil producers in Africa and the Middle East. Under ETA founder and CEO Mr. Timothy Nimmo's leadership, they have made a commitment to provide oil samples to STWA from a number of leading candidates for AOT™ technology in South Sudan, Egypt and Qatar.

In one of the Company's most noteworthy accomplishments to date, STWA signed a material contract with a $30 billion midstream oil pipeline operator (8-K on file) to integrate AOT™ technology into their flagship pipeline located in North America. Under this agreement STWA has been engaged in an intensive design, engineering and review process since May 2013. The goal of these collaborative efforts is for deployment of AOT™ beginning in Q1 2014. This venture has enabled STWA to mature as a technology and equipment provider to the energy industry and to become accepted as a peer supplier and approved vendor within the industry. Furthermore, this pivotal moment has moved us from being a purely R&D company to a revenue-producing entity for the first time, marking the successful culmination of a long-term business strategy set in motion beginning early 2012.

Our long-term relationship with Temple University continues to yield useful data for the further refinement of AOT™ technology. Ongoing oil sample testing by Dr. Rongjia Tao and his team provide us with invaluable insight into the paraffin profile of the world's high yield hot spots. We appreciate the dedicated efforts of Dr. Tao and Stephen G. Nappi.

We want to express our sincere gratitude to our loyal shareholders for their support and confidence. Please join us at our annual shareholder's meeting on Monday, December 16th for a reception at 9:00AM and Shareholder Meeting from 10:00AM to 12:00PM at the Fess Parker Santa Barbara Doubletree Hotel and Resort in the Santa Rosa-San Miguel Rooms. For directions to the hotel or other information, the front desk can be reached at (805) 564-4333.
