Watchtower Owns 50% stock in Rand Cam
In years past the Watchtower would have distanced itself from any company or entity engaged
in supplying warfare technology. Not so today! Note the following excerpts from the SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION in

Rand
Cam Engine Corp. is a privately held company whose stock is reportedly owned 50% by The Watchtower Society, a religious organization,
34% by James McCann and the balance by several other shareholders. Mr. McCann has indicated that he donated the shares held by The
Watchtower Society to that organization but has retained a voting proxy for those shares. Accordingly, in Notes (3) and (4) above,
beneficial ownership of the 5,073,200 shares registered in the name of Rand Energy Group Inc. has been attributed to The Watchtower
Society and Mr. McCann. We believe it would be misleading and not provide clear disclosure to list as beneficial owners in the table
the other entities and persons discussed in this paragraph, although a strict reading of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 might require each such entity and person to be listed in the beneficial ownership table.

Ceramic Rand Cam TM Engine
On December 6, 2001 we announced that a U.S. Navy contract (SBIR No1-144) has been awarded to Advanced Ceramics Research (prime contractor)
and REGI U.S., Inc. to build and test a Naval 0.5 horsepower ceramic engine. The proposed engine is a four stroke Rand Cam engine
utilizing continuous injection and combustion in a single combustion chamber. The engine will be of all ceramic construction to permit
high temperature operation, without cooling, to effectively burn heavy oil. This new motor will be developed for powering the U.S.
Navy's new Smart War-fighter Array of Re-configurable Modules (SWARM) low cost unmanned aerial vehicle. On April 4, 2002 we announced
that we signed an agreement to grant a license to Advanced Ceramics Research, Inc. ("ACR") for the Rand Cam based motors for 10 H.P.
or less for the SBIR No 1-144 Navy Contract for the remote piloted applications. We agreed that a 5 year contract will also be granted
to ACR for the Rand Cam concept motors for the commercial and military rights for the applications developed under the Navy contract
for 10 H.P or less.
