Hi Mow,

I hope your holidays have been nice and Have a Happy Healthy and I hope for both of us a wealthy New Year! I will answer your questions to the best of my limited knowledge. I recommend you post them as well on hotstockmarket as well they are an active board.

1. Dubai would not be a direct focus. They currently deal with some of the biggest international shipping companies. ie. Maersk, Hapag-Lloyd, Cosco. They would sign deals to convert a percentage of their containers or install in new ones.

2. Exact logistics to be figured out in the New Year. However, Conforce has opened a local factory to produce the initial small runs. As well they have out sourced manufacturing in China. The product is long extruded panels of Eko-Flor. It is easy to install and replace by any shipping companies current repair staff. If a panel needs repaired it can be completely replaced individually or if minor a paste of Eko-flor can patch holes.

3. The first year is not expected to be a high percentage of order fulfillments. This is a huge market so even a small percentage would be in the $20-30 Million range and a profit of $2-3Million.

4. As for the trials each company is doing separate ones and keeping them confidential. Also the more trials the more word of mouth and product out there around the world. Since these are large companies if this turns out to be the answer to the container floor crisis they want first dibs. I am hoping that a large company buys a 49% ownership in them. Is this likely, I am probably just dreaming. More likley they carve out a small niche and bring more attention to the crisis.

5. Orders are supposed to come in early 2009. I hope they start firing off PRs to that effect. Will it actually happen lets wait and see. At least now they are trying to move to the OTC:BB. They have to be very careful what they PR and state.
