ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES CORP. BY: /s/RICHARD G. SCHMELING _____________________________ RICHARD G. SCHMELING, Vice President-Finance Dated: April 29, 1997 NEW YORK, April 4, 1997 (Reuter) Environmental Technologies Corp. said Friday an investigation by the Board had found no evidence of any irregularities involving its chief executive officer, Brin McCagg, or its FulCircle Recyclers, Inc. subsidiary. It also announced that McCagg had resigned to pursue other business opportunities. The Company said McCagg had agreed not to pursue defamation claims against it. McCagg was suspended by the Company in January while it reviewed operations at FulCircle. At that time, he resigned from the Company's Board. George Cannan, Environmental Technologies' Chairman, will take on the CEO duties, the Company said. Cannan was CEO prior to retaining McCagg in January 1996. Environmental Technologies is a fully integrated supplier of refrigerant reclamation services, refrigerant recovery and recycling equipment, and a recycler of fluorescent lighting ballasts.
