Abstract:
Mr John Banks reports:

In the past, the company has received several verbal inquiries regarding the licensing of its technology for the Flushaway™ Pads and Liners. However, there was not a strong enough business case or financial motivation to proceed. Recently, Ecoprogress has received expressions of interest from several parties regarding the licensing of our technology. Preliminary discussions have begun. The Company is seeking cash and royalties. Also, over the last 3 weeks, the company has reformulated its business plan at the request of one of the interested parties.

Ecoprogress Considers Licensing New Nanotech Technology

VANCOUVER, BC | Posted on February 23rd, 2007

The implementation of nanotechnology materials is continuing but has had some delays. Exceptionally bad weather in the USA delayed the delivery of certain materials to QuarTek that were necessary for production. Once a revised timetable is complete a further update will be provided.

After the Chinese New Year holiday, the production process will resume and is planned to be perfected in March using the new nanotech materials. This timetable is being confirmed following the delay in the USA. It is estimated that 3 containers of product using the nanotech materials will be manufactured as soon as the implementation is complete.

Beginning on February 14, 2007, John Banks was travelling outside of the country and will be returning to Canada approximately the last week in March. The travel plans include North America, Europe, Asia and possibly Australia.

Meetings are scheduled in London, England with potential brokers, product engineers, designers, and high net worth investors. Meetings in North America include brokers, investors, as well as QuarTek in North Carolina. Meetings with Highford Holdings in China and other potential strategic partners may also take place during this time.

Over the last two weeks the company has meet with agencies with regard to research grants for future product lines. Preliminary work has begun and a progress report will be issued as news becomes available.

The company has also reduced its accounts payable during February from approximately $340,000 to around $272,000. Also, the company is finalizing paperwork to close the second tranche of the $500,000 private placement. The company had already closed the first tranche for $304,050. It is expected to be oversubscribed.

In keeping with a tighter control over its distributors and brokers the Company is continuing its review and discussions to obtain the best financial yield for shareholders.

The companies shares can trade under the symbol "CEPGF" although most of the company's trading takes place on the TSX Venture market in Canada under the symbol "CES" The audited financials along with the recently completed quarterly statements were necessary to further the listing process.
