The Board of Directors has been, and will continue to operate as an active group in managing the company for the near term.

Matthew Schissler, Chairman of the Board states, “We feel it is in the shareholders’ best interest to pursue a fresh outlook, including personnel, products, process, structure, and delivery of product to market. Since March of 2013, the company has had a tremendously deep, experienced and well-connected board, which has been focused on restructuring the Company and its business. Today, the board of Bourque Industries embarks on launching a new perspective to the business, first of which is identifying leadership, combined with finding and verifying the efficacy on all aspects of Kryron. As these components are secured, we will share the news with our shareholders and the public.” About Bourque Industries Bourque Industries is a development stage company with a business plan in the field of advanced materials science directed to developing and then producing metal alloys and related product applications using a patented metal-alloying process known as Kryron.

Bourque Industries Releases Update to Shareholders Press Release correction: The Int. CEO, Sean Floyd started with Bourque Industries July of 2012 (not January 2012) as stated in the PR Dated Mar 09, 2013 found here. Prior to July 2012, he had no connection with the company and was not an Officer at anytime. This was a oversite, misprint that will be announced in the next PR. OTC Disclosure & News Service Tuscon, AZ - Update Includes Plans for Future Fully Reporting Status, Removal of DTC Chill Efforts, Prospective Funding, Introduction of New Product, Growth Strategy, Management Team Changes Tucson, AZ April 12, 2013 — Bourque Industries (Pink Sheets: BORK), an advanced materials science company that develops and produces metal alloys and related product applications using our revolutionary metal-alloying process, Kryron, announced today that the Company has updated shareholders on the corporate side of the business on the Company’s website at http://bourqueindustries.com/latest-news-press-releases. The update includes the following items: Fully Reporting Status The order of events that we have to go through to become a fully reporting Company is as follows: At the direction of the new Board of Directors, we have re-initiated work toward becoming a fully reporting company. We can give no definitive timeline, but suffice it to say, we have begun an internal audit process and look forward to completing and filing a Form 10 as required for Fully Reporting status as soon as practical. Removal of the DTC Chill Last year, Bourque Industries was designated Trade for Trade and exited from the DTCC’s Continuous Net Settlement System (CNS), in management’s view without reason or justification. We have filed various documents with DTCC and are in a dialogue with them in an effort to lift the chill on our common shares and return to non-chilled status. Despite the DTCC chill, and because of investor interest and enthusiasm for the Company and its new technology, we have been able to maintain excellent liquidity in our stock, in the public markets. Management remains optimistic that the DTCC will lift the chill on Bourque shares in the near future. The first action of the newly formed Board of Directors is to complete an internal audit of all financial and stock transactions, as well as all material contracts. We are doing this as a first step to present a completely audited package to the auditors and legal team, who will help guide us to Fully Reporting status. Independent committees were formed by the Chairman. There is no ETA on the results of the reports; however, they will be completed prior to presenting a full package to the auditors and the SEC. Task Forces The newly constituted Board of Directors is enthusiastically engaged in the new direction and success of Bourque Industries. In order to achieve success, the Board has set up three independent separate committees, known as task forces, to focus the Company forward, while addressing issues of the past. At the request of the Chairman and unanimously approved, the board has established a financial and equity audit task force, a sales contracts task force, and a task force to address previous obligations entered in on behalf of the company. The financial task force is investigating all banking and equity transactions prior to the constitution of the new board of directors. The sales contracts task force is reviewing all agreements made on behalf of selling, marketing, licensing and other revenue generating agreements, and deciding if these are in the purview for the forward looking company. The obligations task force is reviewing all financial obligations on and off the balance sheet that may have or will encumber the Company, and will attempt to resolve any and all outstanding obligations. The task forces are expected to report their findings to the Board on a continual basis, until the Board is comfortable that the task force has addressed each and every concern assigned. Funding Aside from being a non-reporting Company, Bourque Industries’ biggest issue was funding when I took over as Interim CEO. This is utmost and of critical importance. Our newly formed Board has many well qualified connections for funding opportunities, and I expect to report on these as they become concrete funding transactions. One transaction that has occurred is an amendment to our CNT agreement, which accelerated their royalty payments to us. In return for the acceleration, we agreed to release them of a future minimum royalty payment and allowed them to explore currently dormant contracts with other possible Kryron technologies. The transaction, led and negotiated by our corporate counsel, has positively affected our ability to sell, market, and distribute product and improve our cash positions to fund daily operations. In addition to above, since the confirmation of the new Board, we have located numerous institutional investors and funds which have been introduced to the Company. Management and the Board are in the process of considering various proposals to bring additional capital to the Company. There is no guarantee of success in closing on new capital infusion, or closing on commercially reasonable terms, but management is optimistic that the Company will be successful in this effort. Assuming additional funding is achieved, the primary use will be for growth, sales, marketing, testing, new product launches and initiatives. I have never been more confident in the strength of Bourque Industries. I am confident that this Company will re-emerge as a much stronger Company once we are fully reporting, which will provide better access to the capital with attractive terms needed to grow aggressively. New Product Growth Strategy as a Fully Reporting Company I believe Bourque Industries will secure the financing that is needed to proceed to the next phase of growth. I also believe sales and licensing agreements will provide substantial revenue very shortly in multiple industries. Couple that with achieving Fully Reporting status, we believe we are positioned to move forward on multiple revenue growth prospects, including the ability to process larger orders. Management Changes As has been previously reported, management made significant changes as or March 7, 2013. Since this event, the Company, at the leadership of the Chairman, has taken numerous actions on the management structure and payments. First, the Company will no longer compensate John Bourque his annual salary per year as CEO. In addition as reported on March 19, 2013, John Bourque’s shares have been entered into a lock up agreement. Per that report, the Lock-Up Agreement was approved by the Board of Directors on March 19, 2013, and is now in place. The Lock-Up Agreement substantially removes Mr. Bourque from a position of control of the Company for the period of its term and gives the new Board of Directors freedom to press forward with reorganization of the Company’s business and the marketing and sales of various contemplated product lines based upon the Company’s Kryron alloy material. A change of officers has occurred as well, with the withdrawal of Carol “CJ” Condon as Corporate Secretary, and the appointment of Matthew L. Schissler to fill that position. Ms. Condon also resigned from the Board of Directors. The Company’s Officers are now as follows: Charmaine “Sandy” Berry – Treasurer Matthew L. Schissler - Secretary The Company’s Directors are as follows: Matthew L, Schissler, Chairman and Secretary Charmaine “Sandy” Berry Joel Heffron Raymond Humphrey Michael Kotelec Scott Stover Brent Willis JBT Contract On January 31, 2012, Shenzhen JBT Electronics Company of Guangdong China announced a non-binding letter of intent with Bourque Industries. On February 4, 2013, Bourque Industries announced its first purchase order with Shenzhen JBT Electronics Company of Guangdong. On April 4, 2013, the Board of Directors determined it was in the best interests of Bourque to terminate the letter of intent with JBT Electronics Company, and the Company has done so.
