ENW EnWave Corporation

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Apr 25, 2014) - EnWave Corporation (TSX-VENTURE:ENW)(FRANKFURT:E4U) ("EnWave", or the "Company") announced today that the Company has amended the existing Lease Agreement (the "Agreement") with a division of Bonduelle ("Bonduelle"), the world's leading vegetable producer, to provide a 120kW quantaREV® machine rather than a 120kW MIVAP™ plant to create and develop dehydrofrozen ("DHF") vegetables as part of their business development efforts.

DHF vegetables are partially dehydrated and then quickly frozen. The purpose of this process is to retain nutritional content, color, flavor and most importantly texture when cooked from the frozen state.

Recent advancements made by EnWave's engineering group regarding the development of the quantaREV® platform has enabled this change to occur, which will establish an increased synergy for the overall project and relationship with Bonduelle going forward. The two companies will concurrently collaborate on the research and development and on the design of an operational quantaREV® machine, up to 400kW, for DHF vegetable production with target finished frozen product capacity of between 3 and 4 tonnes per hour. The larger quantaREV® machine design is expected to be completed in 2015 providing Bonduelle with the opportunity to launch DHF products in a broader way.

"It is Bonduelle's preference to work with the quantaREV® platform throughout our development process with EnWave as it is the platform we plan to ultimately use," stated Mr. Daniel Vielfaure, Chief Executive Officer of Bonduelle Americas. "Continued collaboration through the next stage of development is critical to the ultimate success of our project."

"The advancement of our quantaREV® technology allows us to offer an appropriate platform for the next stage of Bonduelle's project," stated Dr. Tim Durance, Chairman and Co-CEO of EnWave. "Working with quantaREV® throughout the entire project should provide opportunities to increase efficiencies and reach a potentially positive outcome sooner."

About EnWave

EnWave Corporation is a Vancouver-based industrial technology company developing commercial applications for its proprietary Radiant Energy Vacuum (REV™) dehydration technology. EnWave aims to sign royalty-bearing commercial licenses with leading food and pharmaceutical companies for the use of its revolutionary technology. Thus far the Company has signed commercial licenses with Bonduelle, a global leader in the production of vegetables, for the processing of dehydrofrozen vegetables; Hormel Food Corporation, a major processed meat manufacturer, for the production of healthy dried meat products; Milne Fruit Product, EnWave's first major licensee, for the production of several dehydrated fruit and vegetable products in the whole, fragmented and powdered form; a leading North American enzyme company, to dehydrate a series of food-related enzymes for their Tier 1 clients; and Napa Mountain Spice Company, to dry high-quality California bay leaves. In addition to these licenses, EnWave has formed a Limited Liability Partnership with Lucid Capital Management to develop, manufacture, market and sell all-natural cheese snack products in the United States under the Moon Cheese® brand.

Reynolds and Merck. EnWave is introducing REV™ as a new dehydration standard in the food and biological material sectors: potentially faster and cheaper than freeze drying, with better end product quality than air drying or spray drying.

EnWave currently has six REV™ platforms: commercial-scale nutraREV® and MIVAP® are used in the food industry to dry fruits, vegetables, meat, herbs and seafood quickly and at low-cost, while maintaining high levels of nutrition, taste, texture and colour. The Company is also developing powderREV® for bulk dehydration of food cultures, probiotics and fine biochemicals such as enzymes; quantaREV™ for continuous, high-volume low-temperature drying of pastes, gels, liquids, or particulates; and bioREV™ and freezeREV™ as new methods to stabilize and dehydrate biopharmaceuticals such as vaccines and antibodies.
