Alcar Chemicals Group Update From the CEO
The following is an update presented by Alexander P. Cavasin, CEO of Alcar Chemicals Group Inc. (PINKSHEETS: ACMG), on the corporation's activities and progress.
Although news has been far and in between, progress has been steady on all fronts and several developments took shape as planned. A more detailed update is available on our website where I posted a letter to our shareholders, please feel free to download it at your convenience. This letter is the first of what I hope will become a new tradition for us, posting our progress on a regular basis and include answers to the questions you have about your company.
Funding -- we have opted for an alternative financing strategy by using private placements, cash for restricted shares, without callable secured convertible notes attached to these. By proceeding with multiple smaller trenches, we will minimize dilution while keeping the progress on schedule. A first contract has been finalized and the initial trench has been received, these funds were mainly dedicated to engineering with a 10% portion allocated to the new administration offices. Another significant trench will be due early September.
Facilities & Operations -- we concluded a long-term lease and will be moving into our new administration offices on the coming Monday. With savings on initial office set-up as well as significant long term cost savings, the decision to separate administration and operations is mainly based on economy.
The building selected for our manufacturing facilities is presently still under negotiations, I expect these to be completed within the next three to four weeks to allow us to remain on schedule with building occupation and installations as planned to begin during the month of September.
The decision to separate operations and administration resulted in almost half a million dollars in up-front cost savings.
Other activities -- with the forecasted financing structure, we were comfortable stating that the milestone for filing and becoming fully reporting had moved up about three months from late spring, early summer to early spring. We now believe that, with additional funds available for auditing and filing, we may be fully compliant several weeks ahead of schedule.
Our financials are presently being audited and we will post these on our site as soon as the auditing is completed.
We are presently negotiating IR/PR contracts and I am confident we will be in a position to reach an agreement with two firms within the next few weeks. This will allow us to make true on my promise to increase information flow and visibility for our company.
Marketing gave way to the intense negotiations and preparation activities which had to take priority, especially considering the two contracts requiring the full production capacity of three reactors. My meeting with M. Terki to group the contracts and develop a delivery schedule was postponed to the end of September.

Alcar Chemicals Group Announces New $75M Contract
MONTREAL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 07/05/06 -- Alcar Chemicals Group Inc. (PINKSHEETS: ACMG) announces that it just closed a second contract with A-M Polymer Industries Ltd. for $75M worth of polyols supplies.
M. Abbas Terki, following his return from Turkey -- where he successfully negotiated a new polyester resin manufacturing facility to service the growing demand for the Middle Eastern Market -- has signed a second 5 year contract to secure the required raw materials supplies for its new facility from ACMG.
The second A-M Polymer facility planned in Turkey will come online next summer according to M. Terki and will require between 10,000 and 12,000 tons per annum of ethylene glycol and propylene glycol, the "green polyols" manufactured by ACMG. "M. Terki had made me part of his plans and I knew that A-M Polymer was in full expansion, especially with its recent homologations for construction and naval applications, but I didn't expect such an additional contract this fast," said Alexander Cavasin, CEO of Alcar Chemicals Group. "I will be meeting M. Terki next week in Geneva to propose a single contract to include supply scheduling for both facilities. The production of 20,000 tons annually will require three reactors, A-M polymer will have to work with us on a ramp-up schedule as to avoid any shortages; I agree it is a nice problem to have, nonetheless, it requires extra planning and additional funds to respond to the increased demand," further added Dr. Cavasin.
Under the present conditions the combined contracts are worth $158M dollars over a five year period, or $31.6M annually in sales revenues and royalties combined. "Our updated Business Plan, including financials and revised projections, are now available online through our website," specified Dr. Cavasin when asked about more details.
