We provide a new extension of the exponential distribution with an emphasis on the practical elements of the model. Six different classical estimation methods were applied and compared. The main test was evaluated on complete data using four sets of data. Additionally, four applications and the derivation of the new Nikulin statistic test for the new probability model under the censored situation are described. Both tests were evaluated through simulation experiments on complete data and on artificial and censored data. In addition, a set of simulation experiments were presented, which were used and employed to evaluate the original statistical test and the new modified statistical test based on statistical controls in the evaluation processes.
