I am not an accredited investor. Just a normal person that likes to invest when he sees potential, like I assume most of you are.

I am a mortgage manager for a CDN bank and actually heard of the PIPE shares from a client of mine.

It is true, you can not sell for 6 months

Yes, it's the PIPE and I believe it is closed now.

Was used to pay pakit and javaco debt and also fund initial rollout of P2O

I believe you contact the JBI office directly in order to buy those shares. Give them a call early Monday morning to find out if it's still open.

Here is what I have heard and read. Originally the PIPE was scheduled to close 12/21/09 or sooner if filled. I do not know if it filled. Also, you must be an accredited investor to get in at the minimum investment of $10,000. There were spots available for non-accredited investors but that minimum was $250,000. The shares received from the PIPE investment are non-tradable for 6 months.

The $.80 per share price was when the stock price was around $1 - $1.10. I do not know if that is a fixed price or a variable price based on current JBII stock price at the time you invest.

Call JBI, Inc and let us know what you find. GOOD LUCK!!

I picked up 25000 shares at the .80 pipe offering on Friday.

The office on Portage Road in N.Falls was quite busy with traffic in and out - folks signing papers and picking up certificates for their shares.

I talked to Bob Molydina (sp?) at the JBI offices earlier in the week and he mentioned Friday was the final day of purchase for them... but might still be worth a call to the office monday morning to confirm for yourself.

EXCELLENT DEAL FOR YOU, I am JEALOUS! I assume you are an accredited investor?

How did you here about the PIPE?

Can you trade the shares after 6 months?

There are a few questions my last response didn't address.

By sec law, there can be only 35 unaccredited investors in a PIPE and from what John B. himself told me, you had to be an accredited investor if investing under $250,000. So the PIPE details must have changed. Great for you. If I had known you could get shares as a non-accredited person, I would have done that instead of buying on the open market.
