JBI, Inc. (the "Company" or "JBI") (OTCQB: JBII), a clean energy company that recycles waste plastic into liquid fuels, announced today that it entered into a stipulation agreement in potential settlement of the previously disclosed class action lawsuit filed by certain stockholders of the company.

Under the stipulation agreement, the company would agree to issue shares of its common stock that will comprise a settlement fund, the number of which will be dependent on the price per share of the Company's common stock during a period preceding the date of the Court's entry of final judgment in the case. Further details in regards to the settlement can be found in the Form 8-K filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission, located at www.sec.gov.

In addition, the Company announced it is rescheduling its previously disclosed investor conference call from Monday, August 12, 2013 at 1:00PM to Thursday, August 15, 2013 at 11:00AM EDT. This conference call will be led by the Company's management team, will review the second quarter 2013 results and provide an operations update.
