For Aemetis Biogas, we plan to operate our existing biogas digesters to produce and sell Renewable Natural Gas and the associated environmental attributes. We are continuing to build new dairy digesters and pipeline extensions that generate new and growing sources of revenue and cash.

We are seeking debt from a variety of sources to continue the construction of additional digesters. For the Kakinada Plant, we plan to continue to sell our biodiesel to OMCs pursuant to cost-plus contracts. We are also continuing to upgrade the plant to increase feedstock flexibility (and thereby lower feedstock costs), increase production capacity, and produce new products. Additionally, we have hired a new executive team to help execute on a potential public stock offering of our India subsidiary and to develop plans for additional growth. We plan to continue to locate funding for existing and new business opportunities through a combination of working with our senior lender, restructuring or refinancing existing loan agreements, entering into additional debt agreements for specific projects, and obtaining project specific equity and debt for development projects, and obtaining additional debt from the current EB-5 Phase II offering. After consideration of our strategies and the uncertainty as to whether certain elements will ultimately be implemented or effective, and considering our need to secure additional financing, substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern remains.
