5. The Management Team
• Mr. John Anderson, Chief Operating Officer has over twenty-years’ experience in
high-level sales and marketing. He is a proactive leader with an outstanding track
record managing and developing key accounts and maximizing profits for blue chip
multinational companies.
• Mr. David Blythe, Chief Technical Officer has more than 29 years of professional
experience in the power generation, and renewable fuels sectors. He has over twenty
years’ experience managing engineering, construction, operations, and maintenance
organizations at commercial nuclear facilities along with managing large, complex
projects. In 2005 Mr. Blythe founded and was the developer of Beatrice
Biodiesel, one of the largest and most technologically advanced biodiesel facilities in
the world. Beyond developing the business with partners such as Cargill and
CENEX, he was responsible for raising $70m of debt and equity to finance the
project..

7. The Opportunity
Since the invention of the combustion engine, the world economy has been dependent
on fossil fuel. With increasing energy demands and growing concern over climate
change, a cleaner, cheaper, renewable fuel must become part of the global fuel solution.
The use of biofuels not only reduces the dependence on fossil fuel, but it is also
renewable, sustainable, and has a lower carbon footprint than fossil fuels. When a
biodiesel facility is integrated with a bio-oils plantation, the carbon footprint is actually
negative due to the sequestration of the CO2 by the bio-oil plants.

9. Bio-oils Plantation Establishment
ITS has the expertise to professionally develop, and manage large scale high-yielding
Jatropha plantations, to produce sustainable feedstock’s that are not subject to the same
price pressures as food-grade crops. Plantations will have 3,033 Jatropha trees per
hectare and will have an anticipated yield per Hectare of 9 tons at year 3 and 12 tons at
year 6. The demand for Jatropha oil, which is recognized as a second generation, non-
food oil, and does not compete with food supply is at an all-time high. The seed or oil
can be sold under a 3-5 year off-take contract. The seed-cake, which is produced during
the oil extraction process, and can be sold as biomass for energy production, or as an
animal feed.
Slide 9
10. Jatropha Plantation Establishment
• Plantation based on Jatropha Curcas tree, a highly productive oil bearing tree
optimized for climate and topography of certain regions.
• Higher yields achieved by utilizing advanced techniques in nursery
establishment, crop management as well as pruning and harvesting
• First crop to be harvested at the end of the first year, or beginning of the second year
of plantation establishment with Jatropha Oil yield of 4 tons per Hectare, rising up to
15 tons per Hectare in year 4
• High oil content and high Cetane number allows the Jatropha oil to be sold on long-
term contracts to leading power production companies or Biodiesel Refineries
• Additional revenue stream via sale of pressed seed-cake from oil extraction, organic
fertilizer from pruning of trees, and honey through the establishment of bee colonies
throughout the plantation to aid pollination

11. Worldwide Demand for Biodiesel
Biodiesel Emerges as a Global Industry:
The global market for biodiesel is entering a period of rapid, and transitional growth. Biofuel mandates
in Europe and the United States have created strong demand for sustainable biofuel production. In
the BRIC nations of Brazil, India and China, key government initiatives are spawning hundreds of new
opportunities for feedstock development, biodiesel production, and export. In the year 2007, there
were only 20 oil producing nations supplying the needs of over 200 nations. In 2012, more than 200
nations will become biodiesel producing nations and suppliers. The world is entering a new era of
participation by emerging market nations in global green energy production for transport fuels.
Biodiesel feedstock markets world-wide are in transition from increasingly expensive first generation
feedstock's such as soy, rapeseed and palm oil to alternative, lower cost, non-food feedstock's such
as Jatropha and Millettia. As a result, a surge in demand for alternative feedstock's is driving new
growth opportunities in the sector. Biodiesel producers who are able to source oil from their own
plantations will have a significant competitive advantage in the global marketplace.
Slide 12
12. The ITS Solution
Advanced Equipment for the Evolving Biofuels Market:
ITS has re-defined the traditional biodiesel refinery and construction methods through the
development of low cost, fast build modular refineries, which can use a sustainable supply of
feedstock’s that are not subject to the same price pressure as food grade crops.
The opportunity is to create biodiesel using sustainable and acceptable feedstock's in a low-cost
process that can be easily expanded through modular add-on expansion. The use of our equipment
will allow our clients to transition a biodiesel business away from traditional food-grade crops such as
crude palm oil, rapeseed and soy, to jatropha, Millettia Pinnata, and Silver Leaf, through to algae and
other sustainable and eco friendly future feedstock's.
Our advanced equipment and additional value-added processes will enable our clients to develop a
profitable business that will transition through the evolving biofuels industry. ITS is on the cutting edge
of biofuel technology development, and is committed to developing solutions that create a competitive
advantage.

Free Fatty Acids (FFA), and
an esterification process for
feedstocks with FFA levels
between 5% and 50%.
Slide 15
15. Equipment Overview
Lab Scale Biodiesel Processors:
The Lab Scale Biodiesel processor is
designed to produce biodiesel on a small
scale. The system has a 50 litre oil
reservoir, a 12 litre methanol reservoir, and a
30 litre settling reservoir with a throughput
capacity of 10 litres a minute.
The Lab Scale system is used to test new
feedstocks at a larger biodiesel facility, in the
laboratory or educational setting for research
and development activities, or by a small
producer who only needs to process a small
volume of biodiesel on a daily or weekly
basis.
Slide 16
16. Equipment Overview
Farm Scale Biodiesel processors:
The Farm Scale Biodiesel processor
is designed to produce high quality
biodiesel on a small scale. The
system can produce up to 250,000
gallons (945,000 litres per annum)
and is designed to operate indoors.
The Farm Scale system is ideal for a
larger farming operation or a trucking
fleet.
