Element H2O Named Exclusive Water Supplier for WMZQ

· From pages 16, 17 of the print edition

Element H2O Ultra Pure Water will be the exclusive water of WMZQ-FM (98.7), thanks to an agreement signed today by Clear Channel Communications Director of Sales Vasco Bramao and Element H20 Partner Marcus Stout. Broadcast from Rockville, Md., WMZQ is the third largest country music station in the entire country, with over an estimated daily audience of 1.5 million in the National Capital area.

Under the agreement, Element H2O will participate in promotions and contests for WMZQ. They will also supply and sell water at the more than 100 music events the radio station plans to host this year, using a special "Water on Wheels" vehicle provided by WMZQ and designed by Element H2O.

"As we looked for the right company to provide our water, we quickly became convinced that the water offered by Element H20 was definitely the way to go," said Bramao. "When you understand all of the health benefits of drinking this Ultra Pure water and combine that with the owners' shared values of dedication to excellence and customer service, and the decision was an easy one," he continued.

Element H2O Ultra Pure Water, purified and bottled at a new Chantilly, Va. plant, derives its Ultra Pure status from a unique multi-step purification process that also lends a uniquely refreshing taste. Purified water is the preferred choice of physicians and hospitals and is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to bottled mineral and spring waters, which have limited shelf lives and are prone to bacterial development. Element H2O Ultra Pure Water has no expiration date.

WMZQ is also taking advantage of another Element H2O offering: private labeling. "The personalized label services we offer allowed us to create a custom label for our partnership with WMZQ, and the same service is available to the public," said Marcus Stout. Any Element H20 Ultra Pure Water customer ordering a minimum of two cases (48 bottles) can create their own label online at www.ElementH2O.com by either customizing an existing template or developing something all their own.
