GreenShift Completes Transition to Operating Company and Consolidation of Investments

NEW YORK, Jul 10, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- GreenShift Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: GSHF) today announced the June 30, 2006 effective date of GreenShift's withdrawal of its election to be regulated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as well as the July 1, 2006 completion of GreenShift's consolidation of its clean technology and clean energy investments.

Transition to Operating Company

GreenShift's withdrawal of its April 2005 election to be regulated as a BDC was in part due to GreenShift's decision to change its business focus from an investment company to an operating company. During 2005 and early 2006, GreenShift acquired majority stakes in a number of operating companies. With its change in structure to an operating company, GreenShift will consolidate the revenue and earnings of its majority-held companies commencing with its fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006. These companies currently generate about $30 million in annualized revenues with about 10% EBITDA margins.

Consolidation of Investments

GreenShift consolidated its majority- and minority-held investments in connection with its transition to an operating company to more effectively focus on the growth of these companies. Effective July 1, 2006, GreenShift's corporate structure was streamlined into the following majority-held operating subsidiaries:

GS AgriFuels Corporation
GS AgriFuels (OTC Bulletin Board: HGOT) intends to build and
operate several clean fuel production facilities in America
based on innovative new clean technologies with a focus on
biodiesel and alternative ethanol production. GS AgriFuels'
first planned production facility, Mean Green Biodiesel, is
designed to initially operate at 45 million gallons per year.
According to a feasibility study commissioned by Mean Green, a
plant of this magnitude can be expected to generate in excess
of $90 million in revenue per year.

GS Energy Corporation
GS Energy (OTC Bulletin Board: INSQ) will focus on the
distributed production of clean solar, wind, wave and hydro
power, and the sales of renewable energy and energy efficiency
certificates. GS Energy intends to invest aggressively in the
growth of its Sterling Planet renewable energy certificate
business and the development of distributed solar power
projects. Additionally, GS Energy's infrastructure support and
manufacturing division expects to grow this year through
increases in its clean technology equipment fabrication and
manufacturing business.

GS CleanTech Corporation
GS CleanTech (OTC Bulletin Board: VRDM) provides applied
engineering and industrial design services based on clean
technology and process innovations that make it cost-effective
and easy for you to recycle and reuse resources. GS CleanTech
is currently focused on delivering its technologies and
process innovations to the Ethanol Production Industry with a
view towards maximizing the yield of traditional corn-based
ethanol production. As GreenShift's repository of clean
technologies, GS CleanTech also holds minority stakes in
several innovative clean technology companies including
General Hydrogen Corporation, General Ultrasonics Corporation,
Ovation Products Corporation, and Aerogel Composite, Inc.

GS EnviroServices Corporation
GS EnviroServices provides diversified environmental services,
including site remediation, hazardous waste management, and
environmental engineering services. GS EnviroServices expects
to go public later this year and intends to grow through the
acquisition of strategically compatible environmental service
companies.


"We are excited by these changes," said Kevin Kreisler, GreenShift's chairman and chief executive officer. "In addition to reducing our overhead and our administrative complexity, we believe that these transactions are timely given our growth during the past year and the recent surge in interest for green companies and clean technologies. The management teams of each division - AgriFuels, Energy, CleanTech and EnviroServices - have made exciting progress so far this year and we are very much looking forward to actively driving their growth."
