Globex, Inc. in Negotiations to Secure Financing for Ethanol Permits in Brazil
Monday December 4, 11:09 am ET
NEW YORK, NY--(MARKET WIRE)--Dec 4, 2006 -- Globex, Inc. (Other OTC:GLXI.PK - News) today announced that is in negotiations with various parties to secure financing for the acquisition of ethanol permits in Brazil. Upon the signing of these financing contracts, Globex will proceed to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with respect to the purchase of these permits.
ADVERTISEMENT
As disclosed on November 13, Globex is in negotiations with five Brazilian Private Organizations to acquire national ethanol permits. These organizations were selected by Globex from the numerous interested businesses and individuals that approached the Company. The organizations range from parties with a vested interest in converting biomass into energy to large-scale industrial corporations with a mandate to invest in high-technology companies with high rates of growth.
These permits will allow Globex to construct an ethanol plant in Brazil. Globex's plans, which are to build an ethanol plant that will employ its proprietary supercritical fluid (SCF) pre-treatment technology and produce ethanol by using residues from crops; wood chips; and pulp and paper, have been received favourably by the Brazilian organizations.
About Globex, Inc.
The mission of Globex, Inc. is to develop conversion technologies and methods related to the production of alternative 'green' energy. Our objectives are to become an important player in the high-growth ethanol industry and, in turn, establish a strong position in the green energy industry. Globex's goal is to capitalize on the rapid rise in the demand for ethanol that is being driven by the energy bill passed by the US Congress last year, which mandates the use of ethanol as a fuel additive rather than MBTE in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In particular, the bill requires an increase in ethanol use by refiners to 7.5 billion gallons by 2012, which is nearly double the current total of about 4 billion gallons per year.

The transaction would result in NewMarket owning a majority equity position in Paragon Financial (news - http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/061130/20061130005702.html?.v=1) and continuing to report consolidated financials.
NewMarket China and Intercell International Corporation

NewMarket recently listed its Chinese operating subsidiary with a revenue forecast of $40 million for fiscal year 2007 in a transaction with Intercell International Corporation (OTCBB:IICP).

NewMarket's strategy is to incubate emerging technologies, grow regional operations and eventually distribute investment returns on these technologies and operations in the form of shareholder dividends.

NewMarket anticipates further announcements regarding the public listing of other subsidiary operations in the imminent future.

Bye all ... self-imposed ban, not that many of you would care. No longer willing to be party to this self-destructive herd mentality that's more interested in getting back at the company than anything else.
Works for me.

PGNF running like crazy on news ... HOD .054
APNS @ .41 moving nicely ... Price target doubled to $1 this morning.
PGNF .015 It's already been to .025 so should be good here. PR still relatively fresh.
Thanks space ... good to see some company, don't get to read all the posts so sometimes feel like I'm talking into a vacuum. Too many posters are hopped up on getting revenge or something abstract, many others out there "role-playing". Uhhuh. Have a good one.
Sorry for the double-post, board, I have a way of posting to myself (as well as talking to myself).
I've tried to come at this from a "value-saving" angle, ie, what is in the best interests of longs to preserve value by not becoming overly reactionary to the company's shortcomings regards investor relations, of which obviously there are many. And in doing this I've reached a strong disagreement with those who want to aggressively demand explanations from the company in such a way that the company reacts by becoming even more defensive and basically hides behind its lawyers and accountants. And in this overall process I've determined that this demanding group of holders is barely, if at all, discernible from those who bash the company.
But as I said, at this point I feel that too much energy has been wasted trying to justify a position when in fact the vast majority of posters only listen to what they want to hear. So ... if I misinterpreted your ultimate motive to preserve shareholder value, again, I don't agree with how you've approached it, but I apologize for my mischaracterization of you.

So ... if I misinterpreted your ultimate motive to preserve shareholder value, again, I don't agree with how you've approached it, but I apologize for my mischaracterization of you.
I wrote what I wrote based on my interpretation of your posts and am not going to revisit it at this time, too much energy already wasted.
In most cases, I believe it's got to do with ulterior motives. If the bashers can get folks to sell by constantly talking the company down, then the bashers can pick up their own shares on the cheap. Often you'll see posters switching sides over time which pretty much proves this to be the case.
Few posters are going to waste time "discussing" a stock's worth if they don't have a vested interest.
I think some of us don't consider calling the company over and over DD. We consider it harassment at this point. The company has made it clear how they want to deal with investors, I don't know how they can make it clearer. Nobody's getting through to Steve because he prefers it that way and to get info second hand and unofficially, like we're getting from all these different sources is worse than worthless, it's misleading. Let the company control the flow of communications or sell if you're not willing to do that.
Geez, especially as 1 of the moderators, will you just quit this I'll call the company crap. Everybody wants answers, but you're not helping by encouraging this harassment behavior of swamping the company with calls and questions, instead you're alienating them further. They made it fairly clear in the PR this morning how things will be handled when they said they'd be turning over matters to their attorneys and accountants.
From the PR ...
" As previously set forth for public scrutiny, this company is currently forwarding all relevant documents and authorizations for streamlined distribution of pertinent public information to our accountants and attorneys, who will serve as the sole source of information deemed necessary and completely accurate for the public."
There's little doubt in my mind that the vast majority, if not all of the "reports" we've been reading here are bogus.
The "I talked to" and "I got email from" syndromes have gotten out of control. Right now I would place more belief in "I'm hearing voices and they say I should buy (sell)".
It's become more obvious that you're into bashing the company for whatever personal reasons. Most of the bashers have done it openly and are relatively harmless. But you've done it under the guise of a fellow shareholder who's trying to look out for their best interests. Your talk about encouraging holders to consider legal proceedings, continue to harass the company with calls, and report unsubstantiated info to the Windsor Star (and I've read only what you've posted recently) makes it clear that your interest, at a minimum, is in driving down share price. I think everyone here realizes now where you're coming from, just in case you think you're fooling everybody.
Thanks, just trying to state the obvious. Have to question what these "longs" are thinking. I mean if I were trying to beat the price down to get some cheap shares, I might be proposing legal action too.
No, when the situation deteriorates to where you want legal action against a company you own, you might as well give it up, nothing good can come from it. As for wanting to know what's going on, well of course everyone wants to know, and the company knows everyone wants to know, but they've chosen to handle it the way they announced in the recent PR and that's their perogative. Now if you want to play private detective and find out as much as possible about the company without interaction with the company itself, that's another story. Not an easy thing to do tho. Personally I think the company's current stance wouldn't be as hard-lined if they hadn't been hounded from every angle by so many shareholders demanding answers to exhaustive lists of questions, making calls, threats etc. In other words there's been a lack of diplomacy on both sides. I'm trying to give the company the benefit of the doubt here because I'm long too and this point choose not to sell at basement prices.
