On April 20, 2007, Tech Laboratories, Inc. (the “Company”), and Renewal Fuels Acquisitions, Inc.

When the shareholders of the Company approve the Merger Agreement, the Preferred Stock will be convertible at the option of the holders into an aggregate of an additional 339,581,173 shares of our common stock.
