MetaPower International, Inc.'s Board of Directors Reduces the Company's 'Float'
Implements Both a Preferred Exchange and Buyback Program
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 28, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- MetaPower International, Inc. (Pink Sheets:MTPW) is pleased to announce that the Company's Directors individually have elected to purchase free trading shares from the open market. The float will be further reduced through the previously announced preferred stock exchange program. In conjunction with the preferred stock exchange program, the Company's Directors agreed to continue the previously announced common stock buyback program of up to 28 million shares of MetaPower International common stock.

Under the previously announced preferred stock exchange program, MetaPower International, Inc. is offering to exchange common shares of stock for convertible preferred stock to be valued at $1.00 a share. This means for every 100 shares of common stock offered back to the Company, shareholders will receive one share of convertible preferred stock valued at $1.00 for future conversion purposes.

To participate, shareholders must have their shares into MetaPower International, Inc. by March 15, 2008 in order to qualify for the exchange of common shares to convertible preferred shares. MetaPower International shareholders must turn in a minimum of 1,000,000 shares in order to qualify. For the complete terms and conditions of the stock buyback program, please visit the Company's Web site: www.metapower.com.

"We feel it is in the best interest of both the Company and its valued shareholders to reduce the float by purchasing from the open market, as well as any shares turned into MetaPower International, Inc. through our preferred exchange program, which essentially retires these shares," stated Ken Allen, President of MetaPower International, Inc.
