TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 8.01 Other Events.
Clean Tech Slovakia sro, a wholly owned subsidiary of Clean Tech Inc., which in turn is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant, entered into an agreement on October 7, 2004, with the Municipality of Kechnec, Slovakia, to purchase approximately 22 acres of land in the Kechnec Industrial Park, located approximately 10 miles outside the city of Kosice, conditioned upon delivery of acceptable title. Through subsidiaries, the Registrant presently contemplates construction of a facility that could recycle HDPE and PET plastic containers and manufacture preforms. Provided there is continued favorable market analysis, it is expected that construction of a facility would commence in 6-8 months and that our projected investment would be in excess of $20 Million. We also project employment of approximately 100 employees.
Also on October 7, 2004, Clean Tech Slovakia sro received written notice from the Recycling Fund, a business development arm of the federal government of Slovakia, of its award of 100 million Slovak Crowns, approximately US$3 million, to be used in accordance with Clean Tech Slovakia sro’s application to the Recycling Fund for its projects in Slovakia.
