Appeal

Following issuance of the first of CleanTech's patents in 2009, CleanTech licensed its full portfolio of corn oil extraction patents to producers of about 12% of the 15 billion gallons of ethanol produced annually in the U.S. However, CleanTech estimates that upwards of 90% of the dry mill corn ethanol industry practices methods covered by CleanTech's patents, up from 0% before CleanTech brought its technologies to the market. Five of those patents are the subject of litigation which CleanTech has asserted against about 10% of the industry alleging infringement since 2009.

xxxxxxx -

An update on the appeal was filed this morning by Attis Industries Inc., our joint venture partner (NASDAQ: ATIS). A copy of the appeal will be provided on our website today.

Further, as previously disclosed, GreenShift has been working to refinance the last remnants of its debt from before the crash in 2008/09. That debt is convertible at a discount to the market price for our common stock, and it was by far the primary source of dilution during the past ten years. The associated agreements required extensive debt conversions and multiple reverse splits to be completed under threat of foreclosure. Eliminating that debt and its dilutive impact was thus stated in many of our prior filings and communications to be of vital importance to our ability to build value.

Unfortunately, our cash flows were insufficient to do so, especially in the wake of the interim 2014 and 2016 rulings and ongoing infringement. However, fortunately, GreenShift’s filing status since Q3 2016 prevented debt conversions and stock sales from occurring, thereby greatly reducing dilution in comparison to prior years while we used the cash that we had left after covering litigation costs to pay about $2.5 million of our debt slowly over the past two years. Doing so has finally reduced the balance to a level that can be refinanced on more favorable and shareholder-friendly terms. Our joint venture with Attis was designed in part to accelerate that refinancing. We have been focused on negotiating agreements with our lenders since June 2018. We hope to finalize those agreements by October 2018. Doing so will finally eliminate the last of our toxic “floorless” debt after a decade of Hell. We intend to bring our filings current after that occurs - not before. We expect to do so before year-end as previously disclosed, but we will not hesitate to extend that date if our refinancing agreements aren’t finalized in time to audit and file before year-end.

Our sole remaining debt of consequence after that is due to friendly investors, Attis Industries Inc., EXO Opportunity Fund LLC, and Minority Interest Fund (II) LLC. Each is payable in cash, and, while each is convertible into common stock, it is convertible at the greater of $0.01 per share or 100% of market at the time of conversion, thereby limiting the dilutive impact to a fixed share amount while allowing the company to capitalize on increased market prices to further reduce the dilutive impact (e.g., a $2.00 market price reduces the dilutive impact by 200 times). Each of those debt agreements are also subject to ownership caps and leakage restrictions which further reduce issuances. Our planned filings will include guidance on our existing and expected share structure.

Please feel free to openly share this email if you wish. Thank you again for your patience and continued support.

Regards,
Kevin Kreisler
GreenShift Corporation

Everything will be reversed.

If all the court rulings were reversed as many times as the stock, we would all be billionaires...

I'd settle for being a 'thousands-on-aires'...

Read the appeal. A lot to read but made me think. No matter the adversity, perseverance can pay off.

Been invested in Greenshift for many years. Even after all the disappointments and r/s, and even if the courts rule against the company, I'm glad I invested in this company and technology.

Now, if the courts rule in GERS favor... I'll be really glad.

Me too... I just hope that share structure allows for the common shareholder to profit. I am not sure why they would elect to joint venture with Attis so close to a decision being made. Smells a little rotten to me. Shareholders supported them all these years and now Attis my be rewarded for showing up late in the 4th quarter.

How can one not be skeptical after what we have been thru. I have owned these shares since the mid 90's and have suffered. Tried catching a falling knife a few times and kept getting burned. I dollar costed down to about $.24 and now own over 250,000 shares so let's see what the future has in store. I may wait another few weeks and add another 75 to 100 thousand more shares which would lower my B/E to about $.09.s up to date on all the filings.

I tell you what though. When all them companies pay up, the stock might have to forward split. Make up for some of those reverses.

It can forward split all you want but it does not affect the valuation. Market cap is market cap...

Question... Why did Attis file our appeal?

And I quote Kevin (assuming it is really Kevin), "An update on the appeal was filed this morning by Attis Industries Inc., our joint venture partner (NASDAQ: ATIS). A copy of the appeal will be provided on our website today".

Stupid question... How can they file our appeal? And why wasn't there a Pacer?

Until I have reason to think differently, I am very skeptical about what is happening here and who is actually saying what. And trust me folks, after what has transpired here over the past few years, how could you not be. They have earned every single ounce of my skepticism!

By the way Skunk, please take down that smug photo of Kevin on this home page. It doesn't help to ensure confidence...

I'm Proud of Kevin. What a fighter! And from the looks of the appeal, just might win this. That judge really screwed up! So don't feel sorry if this bankrupts a few defendants. They deserve every bit of it!

The ATIS purchase price is equal to the greater of the $18,000,000 floor, or a multiple of the EBITDA produced by the JV company. That multiple is 5x EBITDA during the first three years, 4x EBITDA during the next three, and so on. Settlements resulting in $1 in EBITDA during the first three years equate to $5 payable to GreenShift, and so on. You can do the math from there as you deem fit. GreenShift also retains 20% of the JV company, with none of the operating expenses.

And, as there was a method to the madness on delayed filings, there too is a method to the madness with the ATIS deal. Read the preamble to the SPA. It was very thorough.
