AquaCell Technologies to Take a New Direction
AquaCell Technologies, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: AQUA) announced today that Kevin Spence has joined the Company as its new President and Chief Financial Officer, under a five-year employment agreement.

"Starting today, this is a new AquaCell Technologies," said Kevin Spence, President and Chief Financial Officer of AquaCell. "I am looking forward to spearheading the aggressive acquisition strategy we are developing to provide AquaCell with rapid growth."

Mr. Spence participated in financing the plan, utilizing both equity and debt vehicles. US Filter was sold to French conglomerate Vivendi for $6.2 billion.

Prior to joining US Filter, Mr. Spence was an audit partner at KPMG Peat Marwick. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting from USC and is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

Mr. Spence replaces Karen Laustsen as President of AquaCell Technologies, who resigned the position December 31, 2006. Ms. Laustsen will remain with the company in another capacity.
