A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that combines hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricity and heat without combustion. Hydrogen is derived from hydrocarbon fuels such as liquid petroleum gas, or LPG, natural gas, propane, methanol, ethanol, gasoline or biofuels. Hydrogen can also be obtained from the electrolysis of water. Hydrogen can be purchased directly from industrial gas providers or can be produced on-site at consumer locations.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.4in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; punctuation-wrap: simple;">&#160;</p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.4in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; punctuation-wrap: simple;"><font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;" size="2">We sell and continue to develop fuel cell product solutions to replace lead-acid batteries in material handling vehicles and industrial trucks for some of North America&#8217;s largest distribution and manufacturing businesses.
