On May 1, 2013, Kevin Rauber informed the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of JBI, Inc. (the “Company”) of his resignation from his
positions as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and from the Board, effective May 2, 2013.
Tony Bogolin, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, has been appointed to the role of the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer
as well as a Director of the Company. The Company expects to amend Mr. Bogolin’ s employment agreement to be competitive with the
market for his new position. Biographical information regarding Mr. Bogolin can be found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2012 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2013, as amended.
In connection with Mr. Rauber’s resignation, Mr. Rauber and the Company executed a separation agreement (the "Separation Agreement") on

execution of the Separation Agreement. The remaining unvested options held by Mr. Rauber will be forfeited. In addition, Mr. Rauber will
receive continued coverage under the Company's benefit plans or equivalent coverage through July 31, 2013. The Separation Agreement also

pay the amounts described herein is contingent upon Mr. Rauber not revoking the general release within the periods set forth by applicable law.
Mr. Rauber’s decision to resign from the Board was not the result of any disagreement or dispute with the Company relating to its operations,
policies or practices .
The description of the Separation Agreement herein is limited in its entirety by the terms of the Separation Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 to
this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
