About Converted Organics Inc.

Converted Organics (NASDAQ:COIN), based in Boston, MA, is a development stage company dedicated to producing valuable all natural, organic soil amendment or fertilizer products through food waste recycling. The company uses proven, state-of-the-art technologies to create a product that helps grow healthier food and improve environmental quality. Converted Organics plans to sell and distribute its environmentally-friendly fertilizer products in the retail, turf management, and agribusiness markets.

Converted Organics' fertilizer products will be produced in both a dry pellet and liquid concentrate. Converted Organics products have been tested in numerous field trials for more than a dozen crops with the result that, on average, the net value of the farmer's crop increased 11-16%, depending on the particular crop and product application. This is due, in part, to the disease suppression characteristics of the product, which reduce or eliminate the need for other costly, often toxic, crop protection applications. Increased use of nitrogen in commercial agriculture and turf grass applications, such as golf courses, has reduced the soil's ability to absorb nitrogen and other nutrients. Using the products produced by Converted Organics helps restore the soil by replenishing these micronutrients. This reduces the amount nitrogen required in a virtuous cycle that benefits from long-term use. As a result, use of the product will reduce chemical run-off to streams, ponds and rivers, an objective with significant long term benefits to the environment.

The products have a long shelf life compared to many other organic fertilizers. In a number of lab and field trials, the liquid product has been shown to be effective in mitigating powdery mildew, a leaf fungus that effects most plants and grasses and restricts the flow of water and nutrients to the plant. The Company's fertilizer products can be used on a stand-alone basis or in combination with more traditional fertilizers and crop protection products. Converted Organics expects to benefit from increased regulatory focus on organic waste processing and on environmentally-friendly growing practices.

Converted Organics will introduce a new soil amendment product and showcase its organic fertilizer products. The soil amendment product, a concentrated liquid, has gone through two years of testing, conducted by Frank Rossi, Ph.D., at Cornell University. Trial results show substantial disease suppression for dollar spot, brown patch and anthracnose. The product also has hormonal and antioxidant characteristics resulting in environmental stress reduction as it relates to heat, drought and salinity.

"We are very excited about our trial results and the positive impact that the use of these products could have on the environment and in the professional turf industry. We are confident that Golf Industry Show attendees, our target customers, will find our innovative products very appealing," said Rich Aleo, Vice President of Market Development, Converted Organics Inc.

William A. Torello, Ph.D., former director of the Turfgrass Science and Management Program at the University of Massachusetts, has outlined a unique turf management regiment that may be of particular interest to turf management professionals at golf facilities. The regiment consists of a combination application of Converted Organics' liquid soil amendment and the Company's all-natural organic granular fertilizer. This application regiment will enable turf professionals to reduce the overall use of synthetic chemicals by 50 to 75%."
