<div><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Unfortunately because the Friends of the Earth study and the subsequent news stories did not accurately portray our CPI, contact us before they released their
report/stories or reference the Weir study, it spread misinformation and caused more confusion. Therefore, we have removed the products from the Weir study for the moment until we can develop a better explanation of what that study evaluated and what it means
in terms of the amount of nano-scale titanium in each product. </span></div>
<div><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span></div>
<div><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The study itself tested a food grade titanium that is typically used in the food industry. That food grade titanium was then analyzed for TIO2 and nano-scale
TIO2. They then tested various food products for titanium and compared those results to the analyses of the food grade titanium. In essence they were making an assumption that if there is titanium in the food product, it would have some component that was
TIO2 and some fraction would be at the nano-scale. You can read the entire study here: <a href="http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/es204168d?journalCode=esthag" target="_blank">http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/es204168d?journalCode=esthag</a>
</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span></div>
<div><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The details in these studies are extremely important and were ignored in both the FOE report and the subsequent news stories.
</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span></div>
