of accomplishment. EarthShell will be implementing changes that will enable top

future."

"Mr. Khashoggi helped establish EarthShell's environmental vision and mission,"
commented Simon Hodson, EarthShell co-founder and chief executive officer. "He
has seen the Company through many transitions and the achievement of milestones,

EarthShell Corporation is engaged in the licensing and commercialization of
proprietary composite material technology for the manufacture of foodservice
disposable packaging, including cups, plates, bowls, hinged-lid containers, and
sandwich wraps. In addition to certain environmental characteristics, EarthShell
Packaging is designed to be cost and performance competitive compared to other
foodservice packaging materials.

EarthShell sandwich containers, plates, bowls and wraps are designed with the
environment in mind. Developed over many years using a "life cycle inventory"
and in consultation with leading environmental experts, EarthShell products
reduce the environmental burdens of rigid food service packaging through the
careful selection of raw materials, processes and suppliers. The products are
made primarily from natural limestone and starch from potatoes, wheat or corn.
The new packaging poses substantially fewer risks to wildlife than polystyrene
foam packaging because it biodegrades when exposed to moisture in nature,
physically disintegrates in water when crushed or broken, and can be composted
in a commercial facility, where available, or in your backyard.
