Terms of the Proposed Qualifying Transaction

The letter agreement provides that upon Berkeley's amalgamation with EnWise, all of the common shares of Berkeley and EnWise will be cancelled and exchanged for common shares of NewCo. The EnWise common shares will be exchanged for NewCo common shares on a one-for-one basis. The Berkeley common shares will be exchanged in accordance with an exchange ratio based upon the valuation of EnWise following the concurrent offering described below (up to a maximum of $15 million), a fixed valuation of $1.65 million agreed to by the parties for Berkeley and the aggregate number of common shares of EnWise and Berkeley outstanding. Holders of options to purchase Berkeley common shares will receive from NewCo an option to purchase an adjusted number of common shares of NewCo based on the exchange ratio at a correspondingly adjusted exercise price. Subject to applicable regulatory approval, holders of options and warrants to purchase common shares of EnWise will receive from NewCo an option or warrant, as applicable, to purchase the same number of common shares of NewCo on the same terms for each option and warrant held by them, subject to adjustment for the conversion of EnWise preferred shares into EnWise common shares on a one-for-two basis upon the closing the amalgamation in accordance with the provisions of EnWise's articles of incorporation. Preliminary indications from prospective agents for the concurrent offering, assuming completion of the bridge financing as described below raising an aggregate amount of $3 million in gross proceeds, are that the pre-money valuation of EnWise in the concurrent offering will be approximately $8.25 million, or $0.25 per EnWise common share, and the parties have agreed that the Qualifying Transaction will be conditional on the completion of the concurrent offering on mutually satisfactory terms. Assuming an offering price of $0.25 per EnWise common share in the concurrent offering, the Berkeley exchange ratio would be 0.60. According to such exchange ratio and assuming completion of the EnWise bridge financing on such terms and the concurrent offering raising an aggregate of $6 million in gross proceeds, an aggregate of 82,283,750 NewCo common shares would be issued to the holders of EnWise common shares and an aggregate of 6,600,000 NewCo common shares would be issued to the holders of Berkeley common shares.

Between now and the amalgamation, holders of EnWise options and warrants may exercise such securities, resulting in the issuance of additional EnWise common shares, with the result that the number of common shares of NewCo to be issued to holders of common shares of EnWise will increase, while the number of common shares reserved of NewCo for issuance to holders of EnWise options and EnWise warrants will correspondingly decrease. For greater clarity, the consideration to be issued to the holders of common shares EnWise and Berkeley will not be increased to take into account, or otherwise give effect to, the exercise price associated with outstanding options and warrants.

Currently Skyberry Holdings Ltd., a company existing under the laws of the Bahamas ("Skyberry"), either directly or indirectly, owns 10% or more of the outstanding shares of EnWise. As of the date of this release, Skyberry owns, either directly or indirectly, approximately 47.5% of the outstanding shares of EnWise. Anthony Lacavera, an officer and director of Berkeley, purchased $66,667 of convertible debentures in the Enwise bridge financing. Bay Bridge Partners, LLC, a California limited liability company in which Kevin Rooney, a director of Berkeley, is a managing member and holds 33.33% beneficial interest, $75,000 of convertible debentures in the Enwise bridge financing. Each of Anthony Lacavera, Mike Drake and Kevin Rooney, being all of the directors and officers of Berkeley, hold approximately 12.1% of the outstanding common shares of Berkeley.

Following the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the EnWise bridge financing and the concurrent offering on the above terms, the principal shareholder of NewCo, either directly or indirectly, will be Skyberry.

Following the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the EnWise bridge financing (not including the Skyberry Option (defined below)) and the concurrent offering on the above terms assuming $6 million in gross proceeds is raised, Skyberry will own or control, either directly or indirectly, 22.5% of the outstanding common shares of NewCo.

Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, it is expected that NewCo will be a Tier 1 issuer pursuant to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange. Assuming the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, and assuming $3 million in gross proceeds is raised in the EnWise bridge financing and $6 million in gross proceeds is raised in the concurrent offering at a price of $0.25 per EnWise common share, there would be 109,131,924 NewCo common shares outstanding or issuable upon exercise of outstanding options and warrants. Of these, the current shareholders and other security holders of EnWise, including the investors in the bridge financing, would hold an aggregate of 77,571,925 shares, or approximately 71.1%, the current shareholders of Berkeley would hold an aggregate of 7,559,999 shares, or approximately 6.9%, and investors in the concurrent offering would hold an aggregate of 24,000,000 shares, or approximately 22.0%.

EnWise Bridge Financing

The letter agreement signed by the parties contemplated the completion of a bridge financing by Enwise pursuant to which Enwise would issue convertible debentures in amount of not less than $1 million and not more than $4.5 million to existing shareholders of EnWise and certain other investors in a private placement, including an option to purchase $1.5 million of convertible debentures granted to Skyberry, which option expires six (6) months from the date of the initial closing of the bridge financing (the "Skyberry Option"). Pursuant to the terms of the bridge financing, all such convertible debentures are to be automatically converted into EnWise preferred shares, which will be converted into EnWise common shares upon closing of the amalgamation in accordance with EnWise's articles of incorporation. On July 21, 2008, Enwise completed the initial closing of the bridge financing by issuing convertible debentures in an aggregate amount equal to $2.7 million, leaving $300,000 of convertible debentures which may be issued in subsequent closings in accordance with the terms of the bridge financing.

Concurrent Offering

The Qualifying Transaction will be conditional upon the completion of an EnWise concurrent private placement of common shares raising not less than $1 million and not more than $10 million. Preliminary indications from prospective agents are that the valuation of EnWise for the concurrent offering will be approximately $0.25 per common share, or pre-money valuation of EnWise of approximately $8.25 million assuming completion of the bridge financing raising an aggregate amount of $3 million in gross proceeds. The actual per share offering price will be determined in the marketing of the offering. EnWise will select the agent to EnWise in respect of the offering, subject to the reasonable acceptance of Berkeley.

The proceeds from the concurrent offering, together with the combined working capital of EnWise and Berkeley following the completion of the proposed Qualifying Transaction, will be used for expansion of infrastructure, sales and marketing initiatives and for working capital. Upon completion of the proposed Qualifying Transaction, the EnWise bridge financing and the concurrent offering, EnWise anticipates having sufficient financial resources to carry on its business plan for a period of at least 18 months.

Berkeley intends to apply to the TSX Venture Exchange for a waiver of the sponsorship requirements for the Qualifying Transaction based upon the brokered concurrent offering.

At the closing of the Qualifying Transaction, Peter Hwang, Paul Massara, Jay Wilgar and Brett Whalen will be the nominees of EnWise to be elected to the Board of Directors of NewCo.
