JBI is a leader in business innovation. Our mission is to mine data from the world's largest information archive, find under-productive entities to inject our superior proprietary technologies into, and enjoy increased productivity and profitability, beginning with Plastic2Oil. In addition to launching new, superior technologies, the company will also focus on growing through acquisitions that are profitable, have growth potential, and are consistent with the JBI business plan. Currently JBI operates 4 business units under this growth model; Data Recovery, Plastic2Oil, JavaCo Inc, and Pak-It.

Data Recovery
JBI started out as, and remains, the world's premier tape data recovery firm. Our custom in-house designed hardware and software allows our tape drives to not only recover 100% of the data on the tape, but also to mechanically validate that 100% of the data has been recovered. JBI is the only company on the planet with this capability. Some of our bigger customers include MIT, Harvard, U.S. Army, United Nations, and we are Sole Sourced by NASA for all their magnetic tape, microfilm, and microfiche recovery needs. For more information on how we can recover your company's data, click on the Tape Data Recovery tab on the menu above.

Plastic2Oil
On the environmental front, JBI has developed a very cost effective process to convert recyclable plastic back into oil that is in the Diesel-Gasoline range. This process is done efficiently by way of our trade secret catalyst which not only greatly reduces the time required to break down the plastic, but also reduces the amount of energy required to do so. Millions of tons of plastic are discarded every year world wide, much of it ending up in landfills. Our process diverts that plastic, and reduces our dependency on foreign oil all at the same time.

JBI's PAK-IT brand of cleaning solutions are not only highly effective, but make cleaning easier, safer, and more environmentally friendly then any other cleaning solutions. Using the patented line of PAK-IT cleaning products is guaranteed to save your business 30%-50% per year on cleaning supplies because of their revolutionary design and formulation.

FIGI Fortress International Group, Inc. Awarded Contracts Totaling $39.4 Million

COLUMBIA, MD, Oct 19, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Fortress International
Group, Inc. (FIGI) ("Fortress," or the "Company"), a leading provider of
consulting and engineering, construction management and 24/7/365 site services
for mission-critical facilities, today announced that it has been awarded six
contracts totaling approximately $39.4 million spanning all three of its
divisions -- technology consulting, construction management and facilities
management. Including the new project awards, Fortress International has closed
$46.5 million in new business since the end of the second quarter.

The bulk of the contract awards come from four significant design and
construction projects for two of Fortress International's co-location customers
totaling $36.4 million. Revenue related to these projects will span over the next
eight months with projects located in Chicago, Toronto and Atlanta.

In addition, Fortress' technology consulting division has been selected to be
part of the professional services team to assist the U.S. Social Security
Administration to develop and design their new data center in Baltimore. The
initial contract with Fortress is for $300,000, however due to the size and
complexity of the project, Fortress believes that its involvement will evolve
from this initial contract.

Fortress was also awarded a $2.7 million facility management contract over a
three year period to commission and service multiple containerized data center
modules.

"Our private sector project wins are the direct result of the credit markets
opening up in our sector," said Chief Executive Officer Thomas P. Rosato.
"Capital spending has been very slow since October of 2008. We are now beginning
to see our capacity-constrained data center customers executing their facilities
expansion plans to meet pent up demand. The credit markets are responding
favorably to this segment and we expect to see increased project spending over
the next few quarters."
