Energy Services, Inc. (EES), a privately held clean energy company
utilizing innovative chemistry for energy efficiency, air pollution

proud to integrate STEP Combustion into the EES family and further
expand our industry leading energy technology portfolio. EES is a
recognized leader in using innovative chemistry for boiler performance
improvement and water treatment. With the addition of STEP Combustion,
we have gained a strong platform in the combustion modification market
with technical solutions for both pre- and post-combustion emission
control. STEP Combustion has been combined with our existing EES energy
business and will expand our capabilities into Air Pollution Control for
coal, natural gas, oil and biomass fueled power generation applications.
This acquisition and integration is also part of our global growth
strategy given that in key international markets, emissions control
standards for solid fuels are getting tighter and STEP’s technologies
will broaden the opportunity for EES."

Robert Santangeli, Vice President, Engineering and Operations, EES and
former President of STEP, stated, "We are excited to join an
organization with such a significant presence and reputation in the
power industry. With the financial, technical, manufacturing and

believe the potential to serve our customers and grow our business is
significantly enhanced."

Mr. Nowak concluded, "Growth through acquisition and its successful
integration are an integral part of our overall strategy and we are
always evaluating new opportunities. STEP Combustion is a significant
addition to our Company as we continue to build stronger solution
platforms for customers in the key markets of the power generation,
