Mr. Jim Perry reports

The company has shipped its 1,000th A20 military personnel heater to the
U.S. Army. An official from the Army's Tank-Automotive Armaments Command
(TACOM) attended the ceremony today to mark this significant achievement at
Global's manufacturing plant in Bassano, Alberta.
"Shipping the 1,000th A20 heater to TACOM is an important milestone for
Global," said Daryl Marling, manager of the heaters division. "TACOM has
shown solid support for our heater technology and development programs. By
ramping up production to the current level, we have demonstrated our
capability to supply TACOM's requirements now and in the future".
In the existing contract with TACOM, Global has 3,000 A20 heaters
remaining, including 1,137 on order and an option for 1,863 more. In
addition, the contract has been extended to explore the application of
Global's advanced technology to heating of heavy military trucks. As
Global's A20 is now a standard item in the defense supply system, the
company's heater marketing group is developing relations with the NATO
Maintenance and Supply Agency to facilitate supply of the new A20 global
heater to European forces.
