(TSXV: BUS) (OTCQX: GWTNF) (FRA: 6LG) - December 15, 2020: ("Grande West" or the "Company"), a Canadian manufacturer of mid-sized multi-purpose transit vehicles for sale in Canada and the United States, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a distribution agreement with Kontrol Energy Corp (CSE: KNR) (OTCQB: KNRLF) (FSE:1K8) to offer BioCloud technology solutions in its Vicinity line of buses.
"We are pleased to enter into this agreement with Grande West as we continue to target the important sector of ground transportation with an established and successful bus OEM. We are excited to be working with another disruptive Canadian company, focusing on a transit solution that will make buses safer and reduce risk of potential viral spread for the riders, stated Paul Ghezzi, CEO Kontrol Energy.

Under the terms of the non-exclusive distribution agreement, Grande West will offer the BioCloud solution as an option in its Vicinity LightningTM , Vicinity LT and Vicinity heavy duty bus specifications. The Companys existing customers will be notified of the option to retrofit the BioCloud devices into existing fleets across Canada. United States customers will be serviced by working with Kontrol Energys exclusive distributor, United Safety and Survivability Corporation. Pricing will not be disclosed for industry competitive purposes.
William Trainer, President & CEO of Grande West stated, Grande West is proud to be partnering with Kontrol in working towards making our Vicinity buses safer for all of our end users. The Company is expanding its product lines into Electric Vehicles and lighter duty models and ramping up its U.S. sales and expects significant growth in the coming years. We will do everything we can to offer the safest and most effective transit solutions to our customers.
As an initial step, Grande West is ordering two of the BioCloud units for its offices and operations headquarters in Aldergrove to improve the safety considerations of its employees.
