                   EARTHSHELL CORPORATION PROVIDES NOTICE THAT
                         FUNDING HAS YET TO BE ACHIEVED
        Management Continues to Pursue All Options for Stability Funding



BALTIMORE, MD, December 13, 2006 -- EarthShell(R) Corporation (OTCBB: ERTH)
announced today that it cannot guarantee that it will be able to meet its
payroll or other financial obligations after December 15, 2006 unless it is able
to secure additional financing.

EarthShell has been seeking stability funding to allow the Company to complete
the execution of its business plan, which calls for the Company to become
self-sustaining in 2007. However, the Company does not currently have definitive
funding commitments to assure that it can continue to meet its payroll or other
financial obligations. Executive management committed certain personal funds to
maintain operations between December 1 and December 15, 2006.

On November 15, 2006, during a shareholder call, the Company summarized the
recent significant progress to turn the Company around, greatly improve
EarthShell's performance and bring EarthShell plates and bowls to market through
its licensees, ReNewable Products, Inc. (RPI) and EarthShell Hidalgo. However,
EarthShell also reported that its investment banker has found it more difficult
than expected to raise capital for the Company. The Company has also approached
other key stakeholders for additional interim funding. Although the Company
continues to be in active discussions with potential funding sources, no
definitive commitments are in place at this time. EarthShell will continue to
vigorously pursue all financing options. As referenced in the Company's public
filings, most recently in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period
ending September 30, 2006, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) on November 20, 2006, there can be no assurance that it will be successful
in securing the appropriate financing in a timely fashion.

EarthShell also explained that under current agreements, RPI and EarthShell
Hidalgo maintain their manufacturing license and will continue to sell
EarthShell plates and bowls under the EarthShell master license agreement and
EarthShell brand name, if EarthShell is unable to sustain operations.

In related comments, Vincent J. Truant, chairman and chief executive officer,
stated, "We have placed EarthShell's technology on a positive course and met our
key business development goals this past year. Concurrently, we have built a
solid foundation for EarthShell's commercial success by accomplishing several
first time and fundamental strategic initiatives. However, the Company has not
yet been able to secure the resources to complete our mission at this time."
Continued Mr. Truant, "I thank our investors, customers, suppliers and employees
for their consistent support as we work to accomplish what is admittedly a tough
workout and turnaround situation." The Board of Directors acknowledged with
appreciation the accomplishments of the Company during the past fifteen months
under Vincent J. Truant. At the time that Mr. Truant was elected CEO in
September, 2005, he and the Board had been assured that the necessary long-term
funding would be available to accomplish the successful turnaround of the
business, complete commercialization of EarthShell's technology and retire the
Company's pre-existing debt. However, that funding never materialized. Mr.
Truant stated, "We are in active discussions regarding potential funding
opportunities to enable us to complete the successful turnaround and workout for
the company. EarthShell has a wonderful technology that will be a key part of
sustainable packaging for today, tomorrow and well into the future."

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

EarthShell foodservice disposable packaging is 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.
