It's ALIVE!!! .... $PTOI News:

Negotiating key strategic partnerships.



In July 2017, we announced the signing of a new memorandum of understanding (MOU) with a potential partner regarding the licensing of our technology and a potential sale of processor units. We are still in the process of moving from the MOU to a definitive agreement.



If and when the agreement is consummated, it is anticipated that the first site, located in the southern United States, would house two P2O processors, and could eventually lead to deployment of P2O processors in 15 to 20 similar facilities. The initial purchase order would be for the two units currently in our inventory. Final assembly and testing of the units prior to shipping would require approximately six months from signing of the purchase order. Instrumentation and other necessary equipment would be secured prior to the shipping date. Several additional months would be required for installation after the units have been shipped.



In addition, we are in the early stages of discussion with two potential partners in Canada regarding the licensing of our technology and potential sale of processor units. Of course, we cannot assure you that we will reach a definitive agreement on either of these projects, however, management remains optimistic about the opportunities that lie ahead.



Looking Ahead.



The above developments—including the strengthening of our governance structure by adding two new outside Directors—are part of our ongoing and successful transformation of the firm’s profile.

CEO Heddle either thinks no one is really paying any attention to what he says or he doesn't care how he is perceived by investors.

The opening sentence of the press release (in bold as you quoted it)....

"To our valued Plastic2Oil (P2O) shareholders:
In previous updates, we have discussed reducing costs, securing additional financing, developing key strategic partnerships, and strengthening our governance. I am pleased to report to you on our progress in each of these areas."

I have little doubt that he would have been pleased to report any progress in securing additional financing but in the very release in which he said he would do so he did not.
Maybe there wasn't any progress. Maybe he just plumb forgot to update shareholders on the progress.
I guess it was nice of him to offer.


Plastic2Oil CEO Provides Update to Shareholders

GlobeNewswire•October 18, 2017
NIAGARA FALLS, NY, Oct. 18, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Plastic2Oil, Inc. (OTCQB: PTOI):

To our valued Plastic2Oil (P2O) shareholders:
In previous updates, we have discussed reducing costs, securing additional financing, developing key strategic partnerships, and strengthening our governance. I am pleased to report to you on our progress in each of these areas.

Strengthening Governance: Appointment of New Directors
I am pleased to announce that effective October 12, 2017, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Plastic2Oil, Inc. has increased in size from two to four members, with the newly created seats filled by Mr. Jason C. Aspin and Mr. Lee C. Brain.

Mr. Aspin and Mr. Brain bring to the Board a wealth of experience in building and leading successful companies. Their advice and counsel, along with that of our other Board members, will be invaluable in helping us realize the full potential of P2O’s unique technology. I am very much looking forward to working with them as we take P2O to the next level.

Aspin, 51, is the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer of Aspin Kemp & Associates (AKA), a Canadian technology company providing innovation and solutions to marine and land-based power, energy and power-to-process applications. Mr. Aspin cofounded AKA in 1996 and has served on AKA’s Board of Directors for 21 years. He is a graduate of the Canadian Coast Guard College Marine Engineering program.

“I am passionate about solutions that help reduce society’s environmental impact on the planet. With P2O, I saw technology that offers an innovative solution to a significant pollution problem, while at the same time deriving energy and value from waste materials. I welcome the opportunity to add my two decades of leadership experience to the P2O Board and to helping the company leverage its technology, including integrating it with other complimentary systems such as power generation, renewable energy, and microgrid technology.” - Jason C. Aspin

He founded Hess Millwork in 1996, and continues to oversee every aspect of the business, from sales to production to customer service.

“I have been a P2O shareholder since early 2011, and in recent years I have been involved with a group of major investors in the company. I look forward to bringing the perspective gained by that involvement to the Board of Directors.

My commitment to P2O is based on my very strong belief in the global benefits that the company’s technology offers. I welcome this chance to work with the other Board members and with Rick Heddle and his team to maximize the company’s value through effective strategic planning, particularly in the areas of sales and the raising of capital.” - Lee C. Brain

Reducing costs and improving our cash position.
We continue to proactively manage our cost structure, judiciously manage our working capital, and significantly adjust our fixed expenses. In this regard, as reported in our May 2017 shareholder update, we have actively been seeking a buyer or lease customer for our Canadian blending facility.

PTOI 8K FILED

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.



On December 21, 2017, Plastic2Oil, Inc. (the “Company”) executed a Master Agreement (the “Master Agreement”) with Veridisyn Technologies, LLC, a company engaged in processing waste plastics (the “Customer”), pursuant to which the Customer agreed to purchase all of its requirements for the catalyst and processors for its plastic-to-oil (P2O) operations from the Company and to license from the Company certain related P2O technology. The Master Agreement was executed pursuant to the Company’s previously disclosed Memorandum of Understanding with a then un-disclosed party.


Under the Master Agreement, the Customer agreed to submit purchase orders for six processors during the first three years of the Master Agreement, two of which shall be ordered within the first one hundred twenty days of executing the Master Agreement. The purchase price of the P2O processors will be $2 million for each of the initial two processors and $3 million for each subsequent processor. In connection with the sale of processors, the Company agreed to provide certain monitoring and technical support services. In addition, as consideration for the non-exclusive license of certain P2O technology, The Customer agreed to pay the Company a royalty fee of 5% of gross sales of fuel products by the Customer or its customers. The Company granted the Customer a right of first refusal to purchase P2O processors for facilities to be developed in certain southern U.S. States.


The foregoing description of the Master Agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the Master Agreement. The Company intends to file a copy of the Master Agreement as an exhibit to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.

Negotiating a key strategic partnership.
In August 2016, we announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with potential partner regarding the licensing of our technology and a potential sale of processor units. On March 26, 2017, the parties agreed to extend the term of the MOU to May 24, 2017. There can be no guarantee that a definitive agreement will be executed prior to expiration of the extended term of the MOU.

Robin Curtis, a pioneer in the implementation of plastic-to-fuel technology and a participant in the proposed partnership, recently noted: “The market opportunity for plastic to fuel is even more promising today than it was years ago. It appears evident that the Plastic2Oil technology solved the problems that had been encountered in our previous attempts to implement plastic to fuel technology. We now look forward to the opportunity to implement Plastic2Oil technology.”

We are still in the process of negotiating a definitive agreement. If consummated, it is anticipated that the first site would house two P2O processors, and could eventually lead to deployment of P2O processors in 15 to 20 similar facilities. The initial purchase order will be for the two units currently in our inventory. Final assembly and testing of the units prior to shipping will require approximately six months from signing of the purchase order. Instrumentation and other necessary equipment will be secured prior to the shipping date. Several additional months will be required for installation after the units have been shipped.

We look forward to updating our shareholders upon the signing of a definitive agreement.
