its Toronto (Downsview) production plant. Mr. Sajnovic previously was the

career at the company, he initiated the process that made Stanrika Farms the
only large-scale commercial producer of all natural turkeys in North America.
Mr. Sajnovic also served as Production Manager for Stanrika Farms. He is a
graduate of the Advanced Agricultural Leadership Program at the University of
Guelph.


Forterra's former President, Gary Gould, and former CFO and plant manager, Scott
Gareau, have left the company. "We appreciate the roles that Gary and Scott
played during Forterra's start-up period, seeing the company establish our
manufacturing capabilities and leading us into commercial production," said
Forterra's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Don Green.


"As Forterra moves forward with our plans to expand production and sales, we are
pleased to have strengthened our management team with executives of the caliber
of Richard Denyes, Bruce Bent, and Stan Sajnovic, each of whom brings to the
company experience and skills that we expect will prove valuable in executing
our growth strategies," he said.


"It is always exciting to be joining a company, such as Forterra, at a time when
it is making the transition from product development into commercial production,
and marketing and sales," said Richard Denyes. "I look forward to applying the
senior management and public company experience that I have gained in the waste
management and recycling industry to working with Don Green and the rest of
Forterra's management team to drive the company's growth from the base that they
have established."


About Forterra Environmental Corp.

Forterra manufactures and markets powerful and environmentally friendly soil
enhancers, using worm castings, which boost fertility while restoring the soil
with organic matter for sustainable, longer-term benefits, including stronger
root growth, and drought and pest resistance. Forterra products contain only
organic material. They are ideal for golf courses, sports fields, lawn care,
parks, nurseries, orchards, and vineyards. Forterra produces commercial
quantities of premium worm castings year round at its Toronto plant.
Essentially, Forterra uses red wriggler worms to convert organic waste into
vermicompost or worm castings. Worm castings contain micronutrients, which are
required for healthy plant development. Worm castings also contain microbes,
which increase the rate at which plants take up available macronutrients and
micronutrients.
