OPHI and Kenactiv entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, in which Kenactiv issued 50 million shares of Kenactiv common stock (constituting 52% of the outstanding shares of Kenactiv) to OPHI and OPHI issued 54 million shares of OPHI common stock (constituting 97% of the outstanding shares of OPHI), to Kenactiv (the "Exchange").  Shareholders of OPHI prior to the Exchange will own 3% of the outstanding common stock of OPHI following the Exchange.  OPHI will change its name to Kenactiv Innovations Inc. ("Kenactiv Innovations") and its new Board of Directors will consist of Christopher E. Galvin, Billy Styles and Cameron Adair.  Governance of both Kenactiv Innovations and Kenactiv will be controlled by the Board of Directors of Kenactiv Innovations.

The combined entity, Kenactiv Innovations, will bring increased awareness to the benefits of kenaf, a plant with an extremely favorable carbon footprint and a multitude of uses. By replacing petroleum based products and other, less sustainable, natural products with Kenactiv's line of products derived from kenaf, manufactures can greatly reduce their carbon footprint, reduce costs and improve the performance of their products.

"The demand for our natural fiber solutions from the automotive, energy and consumer products sectors has ramped up significantly over the past year," according to Christopher E. Galvin, Kenactiv's Chairman and CEO.  "Becoming a public company through the acquisition by OPHI will enhance our ability to create shareholder value.  We intend to rapidly scale production to support expansion of our revenue base through our DrillWall™, FiberZorb™ and other natural fiber solutions. Our two companies share important synergies and OPHI's portfolio of sustainable lawn and garden products is a great complement to our retail platform."

A broad spectrum of industries increasingly view sustainability as a strategic business advantage because of the increased customer loyalty, reduced operating risks and reduced regulatory burden. Through Kenactiv's innovative natural fiber products, manufacturers can achieve their sustainability goals while improving performance of their products and reducing costs.

"We are very excited to be joining with Kenactiv," noted Billy Styles, founder and President of OPHI. "The potential impact of kenaf in growing our specialty turf, garden and agricultural management products is tremendous. And as a horticulturalist, it will be very gratifying to help drive the improved sustainability of other industries through the use of natural fibers. Having access to Kenactiv's operational, financial and management expertise will also be a great asset to us as we build on our regional success bringing authentically sustainable solutions for responsible turf and garden care to a broader market."

Christopher E. Galvin, Chairman and CEO of Kenactiv is appointed Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Kenactiv Innovations, David Querciagrossa, of Kenactiv, is appointed Chief Financial Officer of Kenactiv Innovations, and Michael J. Sinnwell, Jr., also of Kenactiv, is appointed Chief Operating Officer. Billy Styles, founder of OPHI, will serve as President of the division focused on Kenactiv Innovations' lawn and garden division, and Alan Talbert, of OPHI, becomes Vice President of Operations of that division
