Barry M. Goldwater Jr. Named as Director to SKYE International Board of Directors.

CHANDLER, Ariz. -- SKYE International Inc. (Pink Sheets: SKYY) today announced that Barry M. Goldwater Jr. has been named as director for the company which manufactures premium home appliances, including the FORTIS(TM) line of patented, high-performance tankless electric water heaters.

According to Thomas Kreitzer, president of SKYE International, Goldwater brings a high profile and important dynamic to the company with his experience as a member of the United States Congress and his many accomplishments in the private sector.

"Barry Goldwater brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to SKYE International. He has a keen understanding of regulatory and environmental issues, as well as extensive background in business leadership," Kreitzer said.

According to Kreitzer, Goldwater's confidence in SKYE and his commitment to the company's success are very important. His position as a director elevates the company's profile and underscores management's commitment to be an environmental leader in the industry.

"SKYE International is truly a 'Green Company' committed to preserving natural resources by reducing the cost of heating water in homes," said Kreitzer. "Barry Goldwater is a champion for environmental issues, and his leadership and experience will be a great benefit to SKYE," he said.

Son of the late U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater, Goldwater Jr. graduated from Arizona State University with a degree in marketing and management. He became a stockbroker and partner with what is now Los Angeles-based Wedbush Securities. He served for 14 years in the U.S. House of Representatives pioneering energy policy and legislation. Since leaving Congress he has held executive positions in finance and management.

According to Goldwater, SKYE is charted to become an industry leader with the introduction of the FORTIS(TM) line of tankless electric water heaters.

"The introduction of FORTIS(TM) to the marketplace means that American families can enjoy endless hot water while saving energy with this ultra-efficient appliance," said Goldwater. "The FORTIS(TM) line sets a new industry standard and I am proud to be part of an innovative company that is committed to saving natural resources," Goldwater said.

According to Kreitzer, water heaters were considered a necessary, but often overlooked appliance. Now, as consumers become more knowledgeable and aware of specific features and benefits, he expects consumers will exercise brand preference in the water heater category and ask for the SKYE brand from their homebuilder or contractor.

Kreitzer said the FORTIS(TM) line will be available to consumers this fall as the manufacturing process began following the announcement of SKYE's first purchase order with Florida-based Jabil Circuit Inc. (NYSE: JBL). Jabil will initially manufacture the FORTIS(TM) line in their 190,000-square-foot Tempe, Ariz., facility.

Tankless electric water heaters have been popular in Europe and Asia, and demand in the U.S. market is forecasted to be substantial because of the many advantages of tankless water heaters. There are more than 10 million water heaters replaced every year in North America, and millions more are installed in the new homes constructed each year in the United States. The market is enormous and ready to move away from old technology to a better, advanced and more efficient water heating process.
