Methes Energies Welcomes New Chief Financial Officer

New York, November 21, 2011 – Methes Energies International Ltd. announced today that, Edward A. Stoltenberg, a seasoned financial executive, has joined the company's leadership team as Chief Financial Officer.

Ed joins Methes Energies with more than 35 years of experience in banking, finance and taking companies public. He started his career with Arthur Andersen and Co., in Cleveland, Ohio where he trained as a Certified Public Accountant after graduating with a Masters' Degree in Business Administration from the University of Michigan.

In his 35-year career, Ed has been the Chief Financial Officer of several companies, both publicly and privately owned. For ten years, Ed was the Chief Financial Officer and Director of Naugles, Inc., a Mexican-American fast food chain headquartered in Southern California. During Ed's tenure at Naugles, he was responsible for the company's successful Initial Public Offering. Ed left Naugles to become a Venture Capitalist, at which time Naugles held 200 units nationwide generating annual sales approximating $100 million. Ed has also had extensive international experience having lived and worked in Geneva, Switzerland and London, England, while sitting as the Chief Financial Officer of Gucci Timepieces.

Adding to his already comprehensive experience, Ed worked with Pillowtex Corporation, a New York Stock Exchange Company with $1.2 billion in sales, as well as with the owners of the Fieldcrest and Cannon brands during their reorganization and emergence from Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in May 2002. Ed was involved with this engagement for almost two years and was instrumental in developing and implementing the strategy that ultimately allowed Pillowtex to reorganize its financial affairs successfully.

"We are very fortunate to have Ed's help in guiding our business through its continued growth", said Methes Energies International Ltd. President & CEO, Michel G. Laporte. "Ed is an experienced public company CFO with a solid track record for increasing shareholders' value. He also brings with him an extensive background in operation, strategic planning and corporate governance. I am delighted to welcome Ed to Methes Energies and look forward to work with him toward our expanding agenda for 2012 and beyond."
