FISHERS, IN / ACCESSWIRE / December 20, 2022 / American Acquisition Opportunity Inc.'s (Nasdaq:AMAO) (the "Company") merger target company, Royalty Management Corporation (RMC), a sustainably-driven, cash flow-oriented, royalty investment and development company, announced today that it has made an investment into Heart Water, Inc. and entered into an agreement whereby Royalty Management Corporation has the right to provide royalty based financing for the build out of Heart Water systems for a royalty-based payment structure per gallon of water sold from such facilities.

Tom Sauve, Chief Executive Officer of Royalty Management Corporation, commented, "We are excited to partner with Heart Water on this exciting opportunity to transform not only how water is sourced but also how sustainable royalty interests are generated from transformed infrastructure and facilities. More and more we hear about the contamination of water sources, and the Heart Water system ensures that water is captured, processed, and purified prior to being contaminated from the ground and related infrastructure. Heart Water systems are not only a value-added backup option for water but also a safe reliable daily solution to the overall needs of communities and regions. This new royalty agreement exemplifies some of the ingenuity of the Royalty Management Corporation business model: by having the foresight to identify underutilized property and infrastructure assets as having a potentially better and broader use. RMC was able to partner with Heart Water and attract a new sustainable industry that can provide jobs to local communities and provide a long-term royalty interest to the company."

Rainwater is the purest form of water and by capturing it before it ever touches the ground, Heart Water's designed system ensures that it remains pure. Once rainwater is collected at a Heart Water designed facility, it undergoes a multi-step purification process to ensure it's the cleanest, purest water available. Additionally, a Heart Water designed facility's commitment to sustainability doesn't end at sourcing. The company system utilizes fully recyclable aluminum bottles and cans to avoid contributing to the single-use plastic problem. Unlike other bottled water, every bottle of water produced by a Heart Water designed system helps to reduce the carbon footprint.

Royalty Management Corporation continues to seek other similar investment and development opportunities from a variety of industries, with a particular focus on those that are emerging or transitionary, as the company builds a diverse portfolio of royalties, rents, and revenue shares across a broad range of strategic investments.
