Company Provides Update on Its New Business Model
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
DirectView, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: DRVW) today announced the completion of its acquisition of 100% of the stock of GS Carbon Trading, Inc. ("GS Carbon"), from GS Energy Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: GSEG) in return for the issuance to GS Energy of about 85% of DirectView's issued and outstanding stock.
GS Carbon is a recently formed development stage company that was founded to facilitate decarbonization in ways that cost-effectively capitalize on the evolving carbon markets.
"GS Carbon's chief goal is to affect reductions in the carbon intensity of energy consumption," said Kevin Kreisler, GS Carbon's chairman and chief executive officer. "Initially, we plan to achieve this through our investments in and ongoing support of Sterling Planet and TerraPass and their trading and sales of renewable energy certificates, energy efficiency certificates, as well as other similar attributes that represent the positive environmental attributes of reduced carbon emissions. Our expectation is that a public posture will enhance the growth and development of Sterling's trading business and GS Carbon's other planned initiatives. We are excited by this transaction and we look forward to making a significant contribution to reducing carbon emissions."
GS Carbon owns about 10% of Sterling Planet, Inc., the nation's leading retail renewable energy provider, and about 10% of TerraPass, Inc., which company provides a service that aids in eliminating personal vehicle contributions to global warming.
Sterling Planet, Inc.
Sterling has established a strong reputation as the premier market maker for renewable energy sales. Sterling has sold over 4 billion kilowatt hours of renewable energy since its inception, representing enough energy to power 350,000 homes for a full year and offset 2.6 million tons of carbon dioxide. Sterling Planet currently services an impressive array of clients including Alcoa, The Coca-Cola Company, DuPont, Delphi Corporation, Duke University, University of Utah, Nike, Pitney Bowes, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. General Services Administration, the Homeland Security Department, Western Area Power Administration, New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), the U.S. Army, Staples, Whirlpool Corporation, the World Resources Institute and over 150 other companies. Additional information on Sterling Planet is available online at www.sterlingplanet.com.
TerraPass, Inc.
By issuing a "TerraPass" to its members, TerraPass utilizes its members' contributions to promote global energy efficiency and greenhouse gas reduction through targeted projects. It is through these clean energy projects that TerraPass counterbalances pollution from its members' vehicles. TerraPass recently partnered with Ford Motor Company in a program called "Greener Miles," which allows consumers to calculate the amount of carbon dioxide produced by their car in one year of driving, and then to purchase a TerraPass linked to the cost of producing an amount of clean energy equivalent to the carbon dioxide produced. Individual purchases range from $29.95 to $79.95 annually, depending on the type of vehicle, amount of carbon dioxide emitted and miles traveled, and the funds are used to invest in U.S. based renewable energy projects. Additional information on TerraPass is available online at www.terrapass.com.
DirectView sold its videoconferencing businesses, which previously accounted for 100% of DirectView's operations, immediately prior to completion of the GS Carbon acquisition. DirectView intends to change its name to be consistent with the GS Carbon business model as soon as possible. Additional information regarding these transactions is available in DirectView's and GS Energy's Forms 8K, filed on October 13, 2006.

GS AgriFuels to Merge with GS Energy
GS AgriFuels Corporation (OTC: GSGF) today announced its execution of an agreement to merge with GS Energy Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: GSEG).
Under the terms of the merger agreement, holders of GS Energy common stock will receive 1 share of GS AgriFuels common stock for each 1,000 shares owned in GS Energy. This corresponds to a total of about 2.5 million new shares of GS AgriFuels common stock that will be issued to GS Energy common stock shareholders upon the closing of the merger.
GreenShift Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: GSHF), which currently owns about 90% of GS AgriFuels and about 80% of GS Energy in the form of preferred stock, will exchange its GS Energy stock for GS AgriFuels stock such that GreenShift will own about 85% of GS AgriFuels after completion of the merger.
The merger is subject to the approval of GS Energy’s shareholders and is expected to be completed in early 2007. After the completion of these transactions, GS AgriFuels expects to have about 31 million shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding.
Infrastructure Support The merger will bring GS Energy’s specialty equipment manufacturing company, Warnecke Design Service, Inc. (“Warnecke”) to GS AgriFuels, where it will focus on the manufacturing of GS AgriFuels’ fuel production infrastructure. Importantly, Warnecke has been manufacturing biodiesel processing equipment for NextGen Fuel, Inc. (“NextGen”) since earlier this year.
GS AgriFuels recently entered into an agreement to acquire NextGen – a producer of modular, continuous-flow multi-feedstock biodiesel process equipment based on NextGen’s patent-pending process intensification technology. Under the terms of the NextGen agreement, GS AgriFuels will acquire 100% of the stock of NextGen in return for about $20,000,000 in cash, about $2,000,000 of which is contingent on increases in NextGen’s sales. The closing of the acquisition is subject to GS AgriFuels’ completion of financing and the agreement is terminable if the acquisition does not close on or before November 15, 2006.
“We expect that this merger will be strategic to GS AgriFuels for several key reasons,” said Kevin Kreisler, GS AgriFuels’ chairman and chief executive officer. “First, the integration of NextGen’s and Warnecke’s businesses can be expected to enhance operating margins for both companies while establishing an immediate stream of revenues and earnings for GS AgriFuels. Next, while we believe the acquisition of NextGen is primarily merited on the value of its third-party sales pipeline, we also intend to use Warnecke’s and NextGen’s combined resources to augment GS AgriFuels’ ability to deploy its own planned agrifuel production facilities on a predictable and timely basis.” Warnecke is currently generating about $5 million in annualized sales and, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, NextGen generated about $3 million in sales and has executed contracts to sell biodiesel processing equipment corresponding to about another $8 million in biodiesel equipment sales.
GS AgriFuels is currently developing several sites for the construction of its agrifuel production facilities. Its planned Memphis facility is designed to have an initial nameplate capacity of 10 million gallons of biodiesel and will include a NextGen system. GS AgriFuels expects to scale this facility with a series of modular NextGen systems to in excess of 45 million gallons per year given that facility’s location in a major distribution hub.
Kreisler added: “Finally, and on the corporate front, merging the larger GS Energy shareholder base with the GS AgriFuels shareholder base can be expected to increase liquidity, which we expect will be very strategic to our growth plans.” Distribution of Non-Strategic Assets In connection with the execution of the merger agreement, GS Energy transferred its 85% stake in GS Carbon Corporation (formerly known as DirectView, Inc.) (OTC Bulletin Board: DRVW) and several other development stage companies to GreenShift as repayment for about $600,000 in debt due to GreenShift and to redeem 400,000 shares of GS Energy preferred stock with a face value of $400,000.
About GreenShift Corporation GreenShift Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: GSHF) is devoted to facilitating the efficient use of natural resources. GreenShift’s companies own the exclusive rights to many proprietary clean technologies and have combined annualized revenues of about $35 million.
After the closing of the GS AgriFuels – GS Energy merger and the other transactions described above, GreenShift’s restructured operations will be primarily administered through the following sector-specific subsidiaries: GS CleanTech Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: GSCT) – GS CleanTech provides applied engineering and technology transfer services based on clean technologies and process innovations that make it cost-effective and easy to recycle and reuse resources.
GS AgriFuels Corporation (OTC: GSGF) – GS AgriFuels was founded to produce and sell clean fuels from agriproducts in innovative new ways that allow producers of agriproducts, their local communities and consumers to save money, reduce pollution and contribute to energy independence.
GS Carbon Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: DRVW) – GS Carbon is a development stage company that was founded to facilitate decarbonization in ways that cost-effectively capitalize on the evolving carbon markets. GS Carbon’s ambition is to affect reductions in the carbon intensity of energy consumption by investing in carbon trading and by developing and owning renewable energy production assets.
