_____________________________________________________________________________________
The
Company’s board of directors has decided to abandon any future ocean fertilization
efforts that were once intended to restore marine plant life and generate ecological
offsets for the global carbon credit market. Due to widespread opposition to plankton
restoration in the environmental world, the Company has encountered serious difficulty in
raising the capital needed to fund a series of ocean research trials. The result being that
the Company has been forced to let valued employees go and will close its Foster City,
California office at the end of this month.
