Belfast, Maine to participate in and help manage distribution of biomass
wood chip materials.

Closing of the acquisition is subject to completion of final due
diligence with terms and conditions being agreed upon by both parties.
Of the $174,000,000 in wood biomass being sold initially under the three
year contract, CMI will receive revenue of $7,200,000 and NCNE will
receive revenue of $2,900,000 over three years or $984,000 per year.

In addition to CMI negotiations with forest owners in Maine and Florida,
according to the US Department of Agriculture, catastrophic events such
as hurricanes can damage tens of billions of board feet of timber in a
single storm that is left to rot or dumped in landfills. Direct
Combustion of the unprocessed mix of coarse chips of bark and wood fiber
called "Hog Fuel" is being utilized for wood biomass and even exported
under contract.
