Short Term
● Collect used tires from auto shops and tire graveyards to ensure no more future waste and also to ensure future profit.
● Tires can be acquired for an average of $1.25 and sold for rubber mulch and scrap steel for $2.40. Greenlight can start production on playground equipment.
● While this is done our R&D team will be investigating our capabilities to use rubber for playground, turf, and track production.

Rubber Expansion
Recommendation Social Media Short Term Long Term Financials Risks Risk and Mitigation
● Used tires will be sold for its components up until we build capabilities to create:○ Playgrounds ○ Turf fields○ Tracks
● This new expansion will dig into Greenlights cash assets but some of the stress felt there will be relieved by the immediate selling of the stock we are gathering for profit
