  1. Biomass - exportOpportunity Maine Maine has 3 deep water Atlantic Ocean ports close to Europe. Thedeepest is Eastport. Eastport is also closest to over 9 million tonnesof sustainable biomass available as traditional forest products sector shrinks. The North American rail system ends 20 miles from Eastport soon to be 7 miles

  2. Maine, poised for pellet growth

  3. Maine already a pellet State Existing Pellet Plants (dist. Eastport/Searsport): • Corinth Wood Pellets (142/42 miles) 125kT • Maine Woods Pellets (182/82 miles) 100kT • Geneva Wood Pellet (222/122 miles) 50kT • NorthEast Wood Pellets (180/300m) 60kT rail • Ennergex Quebec (300/200 mile) 100kT rail Proposed Pellet Plants (others): • Cate Street/Rotowave (130/220) 100kT rail • FE and Sons (40 miles to Portland) 300kT rail

  4. Maine New Pellet Opportunity Proposed Sites by Ethecol Energy: Existing plants to Take over: • Corinth boost production to 200kT/150kT • NorthEast boost production to 200kT/150kT rail • Brownville Junction pelleting 200kT/150kT rail • Island Falls Plant add pelleting 200kT/150kT rail Greenfield sites to develop: Eastport Terminal 200kT/150kT Jackman Sawmill Town 400kT/300kT rail Total Proposed Production 1,400kT/1050kT

  5. Eastport is Ideal

  6. Eastport Export and Production • Eastport has over 25,000 sq. ft of food grade Production Building available • $9.75 M of chip handling infrastructure in place. • Additional Chipping and Storage space included • Secure Biomass Supplier included with 60 to 90,000tons per month of proven capacity with multiple contractors already in business. • All available for a $60,000 for a 3 month due diligence trial lease that will be extended out to 30 years at $20,000 a month ($7.2M)

  9. Eastport, the Security Key • Eastport is the key to developing Maine. There is storage space in Searsport but the port is controlled by Sprague Energy. To take advantage of a good supply of local biomass and the massive biomass supply of the north, • Owning and controlling the deepest Port on the East Coast of the United States is a Privilege. • Leasing/Locking Up Eastport is little risk for great reward.
