The giving of a proxy will not affect your right to vote in person if you attend the meeting and will assure that your shares are voted if you are unable to attend. By Order of the Board of Directors /s/ Henry E. Gemino ------------------- Henry E. Gemino Chief Executive Officer October 11, 2007 PROFILE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 2 Park Avenue, Suite 201 Manhasset, New York 11030 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT 2007 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS November 13, 2007 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INTRODUCTION The enclosed proxy is solicited by and on behalf of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Profile Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), to be voted at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") to be held at the offices of McGuireWoods LLP, 1345 Avenue of the Americas, Seventh Floor, New York, New York, 10105, at 2:00 p.m. local time on Tuesday, November 13, 2007, and at any and all adjournments of the Annual Meeting. The proxy statement and the enclosed proxy card are first being mailed to our stockholders of the Company (the "Stockholders") on or about October 12, 2007. The Company anticipates that the Stockholders will consider and vote upon the following matters at the Annual Meeting: 1. To elect four persons as directors each to serve a term of one year (until the next annual meeting of Stockholders) or until their respective successors are elected and have been qualified. 2. To transact such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting and any postponement or adjournment thereof. VOTING OF PROXIES Shares are represented by proxies set forth in properly signed and returned proxy cards in substantially the form of Appendix C to this Proxy Statement. Unless subsequently revoked, proxies will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions marked on the proxy card. If a proxy card is signed and returned without indicating any voting instructions, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted FOR approval of the proposals stated in this proxy statement, and in the discretion of the holders of the proxies on other matters that may properly come before the Annual Meeting. If you have executed and delivered a proxy card, you may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person, by giving the Company written notice of revocation of the proxy, or by submitting a signed proxy card bearing a later date. To revoke the prior proxy, the notice of revocation or later proxy card must be received by the Company before the vote of Stockholders at the Annual Meeting. Unless you vote at the Annual Meeting or take other action, your attendance at the Annual Meeting will not revoke your proxy. VOTING PROCEDURES The Company's state of incorporation is Delaware. Under Delaware law and the Company's bylaws, the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the common stock (the "Common Stock") of the Company entitled to vote constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders. Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Annual Meeting will be counted by the inspector of elections appointed by the Company. The inspector of elections will treat shares of Common Stock represented by proxies that reflect abstentions as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. Under Delaware law and the Company's bylaws, directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares entitled to vote at a meeting at which a quorum is present. Therefore, Proposal 1 will be adopted if a plurality of the shares present at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy vote to elect the directors nominated for election at the Annual Meeting. Other matters are 3 approved if affirmative votes cast by the holders of the shares entitled to vote at a meeting at which a quorum is present exceed the number of votes opposing the action, unless Delaware law or the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws require a greater number of affirmative votes or voting by classes. Abstentions and broker non-votes have no effect and will be disregarded. All of the officers and directors have informed the Company that they intend to vote in favor of the proposals to be considered for the vote of the Stockholders at the Annual Meeting. VOTING SECURITIES The Board has fixed the close of business on September 21, 2007 as the record date (the "Record Date") for determining the Stockholders entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 13,725,705 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, held by approximately 1,060 Stockholders. As of the Record Date, the only outstanding voting security of the Company is Common Stock. As a Stockholder as of the Record Date, you are entitled to one vote for each share held on each matter properly submitted at the Annual Meeting. 4 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROPOSAL 1 ELECTION OF DIRECTORS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Four nominees are standing for election as directors on the Board to hold office until the next annual meeting of Stockholders is held and their successors are duly elected and qualified. All of the nominees, with the exception of Richard L. Palmer, are current directors of the Company standing for re-election and were previously elected by the Stockholders. The Board elected Mr. Palmer on September 12, 2007 to fill the vacancy on the Board created as a result of the death of Mr. William Krivsky. If one or more of the nominees is unable to serve, or for good cause will not serve at the time of the Annual Meeting, the shares represented by the proxies solicited by the Board will be voted for the other nominees and for any substitute nominee(s) designated by the Board. As of the date of this proxy statement, the Board has no reason to believe that any of the nominees named will be unable or unwilling to serve. In the election of directors, those nominees receiving the greatest number of votes shall be elected, even if such votes do not constitute a majority. Certain information regarding each nominee follows. Each nominee has consented to being named in the proxy statement and to serve if elected.

He received his undergraduate degree from Texas Tech University in 1966 and his Doctor of Jurisprudence degree from Texas Tech University in 1972. Mr. Palmer is licensed to practice in Texas State courts, U.S. District Courts for the Northern, Western and Southern Districts of Texas, and the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. There are no family relationships among the directors. There are no arrangements or understandings between any director and any other person, pursuant to which any director was elected. COMPENSATION OF NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS The Company's Board of Directors determines the non-employee directors' compensation for serving on the Board and its committees. In establishing director compensation, the Board is guided by the following goals: o Compensation should consist of a combination of cash and equity awards that are designed to fairly pay the directors for work required for a company of Profile Technologies' size and scope; o Compensation should align the directors' interests with the long-term interests of stockholders; and o Compensation should assist with attracting and retaining qualified directors. The Company does not pay director compensation to directors who are also employees of the Company. The Company pays to all non-employee directors a director's fee in the amount of $1,000 per month. Directors are entitled to participate in, and have been issued options under, the Company's 1999 Stock Plan. The Company also reimburses directors for any actual expenses incurred to attend meetings of the Board. Due to the Company's critical need for cash, the Company has deferred all payments owed to the directors for directors' fees until the Company has sufficient resources to pay such fees. As of June 30, 2007, the Company owed $122,000 in deferred directors' fees. On March 18, 2002, the Board approved a conversion right on all directors' fees deferred as of March 18, 2002 (the "Directors' Conversion Right"). Pursuant to the Directors' Conversion Right, directors may elect to convert $1.00 of directors' fees owed to them as of March 18, 2002 for an option to purchase two shares of the Company's common stock, at an exercise price of $1.00 per share for a term of five years. As of June 30, 2007, deferred directors' fees subject to the Directors' Conversion Right were $9,000, resulting in the potential issuance of 18,000 options under the terms described above. To date, none of the directors have elected to exercise their Directors' Conversion Right. In accordance with applicable SEC rules and regulations, the following table reports all compensation the Company paid to non-employee directors during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007: Fees Earned or Paid in Stock Name Cash ($) (2) Awards ($) (3) Total ($) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Charles Christenson $ 12,000 $ 77,000 $ 89,000 William A.

(3) This column reflects the dollar amount recognized for financial statement reporting purposes for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 in accordance with FAS 123R for stock option awards. For information regarding significant factors, assumptions and methodologies used in determining the fair value of the Company's stock options, see Note 12 to the Profile Technologies, Inc. Financial Statements contained in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. The grant date fair value computed in accordance with FAS 123R was the same as that reported in the table above. The stock options were fully vested upon grant. BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND COMMITTEES During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the Board held a total of eight meetings. All members of the Board attended at least 75% of all meetings of the Board and all meetings held by all committees of the Board on which he served. Audit Committee. On December 23, 2006, William A. Krivsky, who served on the Board and Audit Committee, passed away unexpectedly. The Company is currently in the process of identifying and interviewing qualified candidates to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Krivsky's departure and intends to do so as soon as practicable. As a result of Mr. Krivsky's death, Charles Christenson is the sole member of the Audit Committee. The principal functions of the Audit Committee are to monitor the Company's financial reporting process and internal control system, to review and appraise the audit efforts of the Company's independent accountants and the internal audit function, to provide a means of communication among the independent accountants, financial and senior management, the internal audit function, and the Board, and to communicate with the Company's independent accountants outside of the presence of management, when necessary. The Audit Committee is also responsible for all matters set forth in its written charter, a copy of which was attached as Appendix B to the Company's proxy statement for the 2004 annual meeting. The Audit Committee held four meetings during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. The Board has determined that based on his experience and knowledge in financial and auditing matters Dr. Christenson is an "audit committee financial expert" as defined by Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules. Dr. Christenson meets the standards of independence under the applicable National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD") listing standards. Under the Company's Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee is required to pre-approve all auditing services and permissible non-audit services, including related fees and terms, to be performed for the Company by its independent auditor, subject to the de minimus exceptions for non-audit services described under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") which are approved by the Audit Committee prior to the completion of the audit. Compensation Committee. The Board has a Compensation Committee previously composed of Murphy Evans and William Krivsky. As a result of Mr. Krivsky's death, Mr. Evans is the sole member of the Compensation Committee. The Company is currently in the process of identifying a qualified candidate to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Krivsky's departure and intends to do so as soon as practicable The principle functions of the Compensation Committee are to establish overall compensation policies for the Company and to review the recommendations submitted by the Company's management. The Compensation Committee did not hold any meetings during the year ended June 30, 2007. Nominating Committee. The Board does not have a standing nominating committee. The Company does not maintain a policy for considering nominees. The Board must consist of at least two independent directors. Director nominees are recommended, reviewed and approved by the entire Board. The Board believes that this process is appropriate due to the relatively small number of directors on the Board and the opportunity to benefit from a variety of opinions and perspectives in determining director nominees by involving the full Board. 7 While the Board is solely responsible for the selection and nomination of directors, the Board may consider nominees recommended by Stockholders as it deems appropriate. Stockholders who wish to recommend a nominee should send nominations to the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Henry E. Gemino, 2 Park Avenue, Suite 201, Manhasset, New York, 11030 that include all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of directors. The recommendation must be accompanied by a written consent of the individual to stand for election if nominated by the Board and to serve if elected by the Stockholders. Stockholder Communications to the Board. The Board has established a process for Stockholders to communicate with members of the Board. If you would like to contact the Board you can do so by forwarding your concern, question or complaint to the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Henry E. Gemino, 2 Park Avenue, Suite 201, Manhasset, New York, 11030. Legal Proceedings.

Burnett, a beneficial stockholder of more than 10% of the Company's common stock, first transferred certain technology, know-how and patent rights to the Company, a royalty interest of 4% of all pre-tax profits derived from the technology and know-how transferred was granted to Northwood Enterprises, Inc., a family-owned company controlled by Mr. Burnett. Northwoods Enterprises subsequently assigned such royalty interest back to Mr. Burnett. On April 8, 1996, Mr. Burnett assigned 2% of this royalty interest to certain stockholders of the Company, 1 1/4% of which was assigned to Henry Gemino, currently the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and a director of the Company. This royalty arrangement also applies to all future patent rights and technology developed by Mr. Burnett and assigned to the Company. To date, no royalty payments have been made or earned under the above described arrangement. OTHER MATTERS TO BE VOTED UPON As of the date of this proxy statement, the Board does not know of or anticipate that any other matters will be brought before the Stockholders at the Annual Meeting. If, however, any other matters not mentioned in the proxy statement are properly brought before the Stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the persons appointed as proxies will have the discretion to vote or act in accordance with their best judgment. SECTION 16(a): BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE Pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934, the executive officers and directors of the Company in addition to any person who owns more than 10% of the common stock of the Company are required to report their ownership of the common stock of the Company and changes to such ownership with the SEC. Based on a review of such reports and information provided to the Company, the Company believes that during the most recent fiscal year the executive officers and directors of the Company have complied with applicable filing requirements under Section 16(a). INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS The Board has selected Peterson Sullivan PLLC ("Peterson Sullivan") as the independent certified public accountants to audit the financial statements of the Company for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. To the knowledge of management, neither such firm nor any of its members has any direct or material indirect financial interest in the Company or any connection with the Company in any capacity otherwise than as independent accountants.

AUDIT COMMITTEE PRE-APPROVAL POLICY Generally, the Audit Committee must approve all audit and non-audit services to be provided to the Company. The Audit Committee may implement policies and procedures by which such services are approved other than by the full Committee, but has not yet done so. The Audit Committee approved 100% of the Audit Fees for the years ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006. The Audit Committee shall not approve non-audit services that the Audit Committee believes may impair the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm. As of the date of the approval of the Audit Committee Charter, permissible non-audit services include any professional services (including tax services), that are not prohibited services as described below, provided to the Company by the independent registered public accounting firm, other than those provided to the Company in connection with an audit or a review of the financial statements of the Company.

Pre-approval by the Audit Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required so long as the aggregate amount of all such permissible non-audit services provided to the Company constitutes not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to the Company's independent registered public accounting firm during the fiscal year in which the permissible non-audit services are provided to the Company. AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT On December 23, 2006, William A. Krivsky, who served on the Board and Audit Committee, passed away unexpectedly. The Company is currently in the process of identifying and interviewing qualified candidates to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Krivsky's departure, but intends to do so as soon as practicable. As a result of Mr. Krivsky's death, Dr. Charles Christenson is the sole member of the Audit Committee, who has been found by the Board of Directors to be both independent and financially literate as required by the listing standards of the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD"). In addition, the Board has determined that Dr. Christenson is an Audit Committee Financial Expert under the rules of the SEC. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors. As set forth in its charter, the Audit Committee assists the Board by reviewing financial reports we provide to governmental bodies or the public, monitoring the adequacy of our internal controls regarding finance and accounting, reviewing our auditing, accounting, and financial reporting processes generally, and verifying the independence of our independent auditors. All auditors employed or engaged by us report directly to the Audit Committee. To fulfill its responsibilities, the Audit Committee recommends the selection of auditors and reviews reports of auditors and examiners, as well as management's responses to such reports, to ensure the effectiveness of internal controls and the implementation of remedial action. The Audit Committee also recommends to the Board whether to include the audited financial statements in our Annual Report and Form 10-KSB. In discharging its responsibility, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company's audited financial statements with management. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol.1, AU Section 380) as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T. The Audit Committee has received the 15 written disclosures and letter from the Company's independent auditors as required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), and has discussed with the independent auditors their independence. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2007, with management and the independent auditors. Management has the responsibility for preparation of our financial statements, and the independent auditors have the responsibility for examination of those statements. Based on this review of the financial statements, discussions with management and the independent auditors, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report and Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 2007, for filing with the SEC.
