EnWave Corporation (TSX-V:ENW | FSE:E4U) (“EnWave”, or the “Company”) announced today that it has granted 450,000 incentive stock options pursuant to the Company’s Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) to several independent directors of the Company. The incentive stock options are exercisable at a price of $2.12 per share, the last closing price per share on the Company’s common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) on the date of the grant. The incentive stock options are exercisable for a term of five years expiring on April 25, 2024 and will vest in accordance to provisions set out in the Plan, or as otherwise required by the TSXV.

Additionally, pursuant to the Company’s Restricted Share Rights Plan, a total of 20,000 Restricted Share Rights (“RSRs”) were awarded to Mr. Stephen Sanford. Mr. Sanford was appointed to the board of directors on February 27, 2019 as a new independent director. The RSRs granted will vest three years from the date of award.

The equity incentive awards granted to the directors were part of the Company’s independent director compensation program. The timing of these grants was delayed due to a Company enforced blackout period. These equity incentive awards are subject to regulatory approval.

About EnWave

EnWave Corporation, a Vancouver-based advanced technology company, has developed Radiant Energy Vacuum (“REV™”) – an innovative, proprietary method for the precise dehydration of organic materials. REV™ technology’s commercial viability has been demonstrated and is growing rapidly across several market verticals in the food, legal cannabis and pharmaceutical sectors. EnWave’s strategy is to sign royalty-bearing commercial licenses with industry leaders in multiple verticals for the use of REV™ technology. The company has signed over twenty royalty-bearing licenses to date, opening up eight distinct market sectors for commercialization of new and innovative products. In addition to these licenses, EnWave has formed a Limited Liability Partnership, NutraDried LLP, to develop, manufacture, market and sell all-natural cheese snack products in the United States under the Moon Cheese® brand.

EnWave has introduced REV™ as the new dehydration standard in the food and biological material sectors: faster and cheaper than freeze drying, with better end product quality than air drying or spray drying. EnWave currently has three commercial REV™ platforms:
1.    nutraREV® which is used in the food industry to dry food products quickly and at low-cost, while maintaining high levels of nutrition, taste, texture and colour;
2.    powderREV® which is used for the bulk dehydration of food cultures, probiotics and fine biochemicals such as enzymes below the freezing point, and
3.    quantaREV® which is used for continuous, high-volume low-temperature drying.
An additional platform, freezeREV®, is being developed as a new method to stabilize and dehydrate biopharmaceuticals such as vaccines and antibodies. More information about EnWave is available at www.enwave.net.
