Daniel LeBlanc, President of ICEX, stated, "We are extremely pleased with the opportunity to install ten of our 'Ice Island' units in convenience stores represented by IBC located in the Dallas, TX area. The units will undergo a production testing at the ten (10) IBC locations to supply the ice sales for the stores. The systems will allow IBC to exercise better control of their bagged ice inventory, eliminate the need for ice deliveries, and allow for sales fulfillment during peak ice demand periods."

"We anticipate building a long and lasting relationship with IBC that will allow for the installation of 'Ice Island' production units wherever the needs are justified to increase the profitability of ice sales at the convenience stores represented by the Independent Buyer's Co-Op," stated Mr. LeBlanc. "The IBC relationship was introduced to Ultra Pure through our marketing and management agreement with E-Source Equipment, Inc (E-Source). This opportunity is the first of many introductions anticipated from our relationship with E-Source."

Harry Starkweather, President of E-Source, stated, "We are extremely pleased that IBC has chosen Ultra Pure to provide their proprietary 'Ice Island' units in ten convenience stores represented by the IBC group. Upon the successful conclusion of this trial program, we anticipate a quick acceptance of the 'Ice Island' concept by the remaining Independent membership. There are approximately 1000 IBC customers who are capable of qualifying for an 'Ice Island' system."
