Letter To Plastic2Oil Stockholders From Richard Heddle, Chief Executive Officer

PK:PTOI
11/24/2014 [ACCESSWIRE]
Niagra Falls, NY / ACCESSWIRE / November 24, 2014 /

To our valued Plastic2Oil (OTC: PTOI) stockholders:
I thought it was important to take a moment to reach out to you directly, as we have been extraordinarily busy behind the scenes implementing the shift in our business strategy, which focuses on the sale and licensing of our proprietary processors, as opposed to exclusively processing plastics and selling fuel.

As you may know, on November 20, 2014, we filed Form 8-K covering our recent financing, and on November 14, 2014, we filed our Quarterly Report (10-Q) for the third quarter of 2014. I encourage you to read the 10-Q closely and to contact our investor relations representative with any questions that you may have. Following the discussion of our business operations in the 10-Q and the recent filing, we received feedback that some stockholders are seeking more information on the current state of our business. To those stockholders that contacted us about this, I thank you for the feedback. Let me address some of the items raised.

We are working hard to move towards profitability, but we recognize that the movement of the stock has been disappointing for all of our stockholders, including myself. As you may be aware, I currently own 3,000,000 shares of our common stock and thus, my personal wellbeing and net worth are every bit as exposed to the fluctuations in our stock price as are other common stockholders. I want to remind everyone that I have not sold a single share of the company's stock since I began investing in this company more than four years ago. Like many of you, I've invested at prices significantly higher than the current price. During my tenure as CEO, one constant has kept me motivated: I believe that if we execute the sale and licensing of processors, we will achieve significant revenues and the valuation of our company will increase accordingly.

As disclosed, I continue to defer pay and have extended substantial loans to the company while John Bordynuik, our Chief of Technology, has deferred pay, paid debts, paid for lab work, consumables, equipment, and assumed obligations approaching in aggregate of $400,000. We've done this so that we can continue our operations until we obtain adequate new financing and/or execute on our first processor sale. We have undergone several reductions in the number of our staff so as to retain only those personnel essential to our reporting obligations and for demonstration and sale of our processors to potential buyers. We plan to continue such cost control measures until we achieve our first sale.

We continue to believe that our third generation Plastic2Oil processor, which we call our "flagship" processor, is the most automated, green, viable, and technologically advanced process in the world for converting waste plastics into usable fuel and we firmly believe there is substantial market potential for the sale and license of our processors. In support of this, see an independent study completed last month by the American Chemistry Council: plastics.americanchemistry.com/Stand-Alone-Content/Economic-Impact-of-Plastics-to-Oil-Facilities.pdf.

Although we have not yet consummated our first sale, we have made, and continue to make, tangible progress on negotiations with a large, national engineering firm and several potential purchasers. The company is also in ongoing discussions with a reputable firm that specializes in waste-to-energy solutions for large, established companies with government mandates and green initiatives.

Furthermore, we have developed a "build & ship" turn-key product solution for our potential buyers. We are hopeful that our current negotiations will lead to processor sales and important strategic relationships; however, we cannot assure you as to whether we will be successful in making such a sale or as to the timing of any such sale. At this time, however, I feel it is important for stockholders to know that the company, despite its limited resources, is making significant progress with management's financial support and leadership.

In light of the company's exclusive focus on completing sales and licensing of our processors, we have temporarily suspended our plastic processing and fuel production operations at the Niagara Falls site.

This being said, we have renewed our permits accordingly as our plan is to resume operations for the purpose of "showcasing" our processors once we execute a processor sale. Importantly, the temporary shutdown of the company's plastic processing and fuel production operations has had absolutely no effect on the company's ability to market our processors or negotiate with potential buyers. Another recent change was the decommissioning of several older fuel tanks, which were rendered obsolete by the tank farm we installed with Processor #3.

In my opinion, nothing worthwhile in the business world comes easy, especially when you're trying to make a name for yourself in a relatively unknown emerging alternative energy market. As someone who started his career in a shipyard in 1987 and has built his own business from the ground up, I've faced odds that seemed impossible at times and I've persevered. I have invested a significant amount of my time and net worth into this company because I understand and believe in the product and its capabilities, and I truly believe that we can be successful. I remain relentlessly committed to pursuing success.

I appreciate your patience, commitment to the environment, and continued interest in Plastic2Oil.

Kind regards,

Richard Heddle
President and Chief Executive Officer

Plastic2Oil Announces Business Update
Winter Damage Repaired and Condensers Replaced; NYSDEC Permits; Quarterly Report for the Second Quarter; Processor Sales update

NIAGARA FALLS, NY--(Marketwired - Jul 1, 2014) - JBI, Inc. (the "Company" or "JBI") (PINKSHEETS: JBII) today announced an update on its Plastic2Oil® ("P2O®") business operations, addressing completion of winter damage repairs, a successful NYSDEC yearly inspection, permit updates, and the delayed Quarterly Report for the Second Quarter.

This past winter was the coldest weather seen in Niagara Falls in years. This caused damage to the water-cooling systems. The water-cooling systemswere being heated during the coldest days, however the heating systems were unable to keep up with the high winds and sub-zero temperatures. The damaged water-cooling components have been repaired.

We also had a major condenser failure which necessitated replacement of all of the condensers. The failing condensers allowed for the ingression of water into our fuel storage tanks but the fuel storage tanks did not sustain damage. The condensers have now been replaced with a model known to perform well in the systems over the past three years and the fuel storage tanks have been cleaned.

The solid-waste department of the NYSDEC and Albany staff were in attendance at the Plastic2Oil® site for an unscheduled inspection in June 2014. The resulting inspection report confirms the Company is fully compliant.

In December 2013, the Company submitted its permit renewals with the NYSDEC before the renewal deadline. The Company is able to continue to operate under the permits until the renewal permits are issued.

The Company is diligently working on filing its Quarterly Report for the Second Quarter and anticipates filing it shortly. The Company is committed to establishing better controls over financial reporting and timely financial reporting.

Most notably, the Company is working very closely with a highly regarded national engineering firm and its clients to complete sales of processors, which such firm is currently qualifying the JBI 'Flagship Processor' for sales to its clients. The Company intends to focus on the technology, develop unique feed systems for customer-specific requirements, and to manufacture the core processor components. In addition to its sales assistance, Company Management anticipates having the engineering firm install, operate and maintain processors as well as provide all auxiliary support systems. This will enable Management to focus on potential customer implementations. The Company has refined its 'Flagship Processor' to commercial ready standards and it is ready for sale.

The funniest thing about this whole 8K debacle is I guarantee the people who were leaking this ahead of the announcement actually thought this was going to be big news.

Too funny. A company started less than a year ago started by a golf pro with zero operating history is supposed to be credible? Would it not just be a hoot if the golf pro founder was a shareholder that started this company to do just such an announcement?

Really?? So *Legal* whoever that is, writes the 8k, yet won't review a PR?? Plausible deniability? So the PR will be BS as it isn't vetted?? Who would put out a PR in conjunction with an 8k without having *legal* review it first. Doesn't pass the smell test.
