BXI Bioexx Specialty Proteins Ltd Com Npv

Bio-Extraction Inc. (TSX VENTURE: BXI) ("BioExx" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has received formal notice from the North Dakota Department of Health, Air Quality Division (the "NDAQD"), that it has completed its environmental review of the proposed BioExx canola processing facility to be located in Minot, North Dakota. Based on the design parameters of the facility, which includes the full capacity required to produce Protein Isolates, and the resulting effluents expected, NDAQD has determined that "the facility will not be classified as a major source under any applicable air pollution rules or regulations." Accordingly, BioExx may now proceed with applications for the standard, and ordinary course construction and operating permits.

BioExx was seeking this confirmation prior to advancing many of the engineering based development initiatives and with this confirmation in hand, will now start to increase its activities rather significantly. These activities will be primarily undertaken by personnel not directly involved in the completion of the Saskatoon facility so that no devaluation of effort occurs on that project. This will also trigger the advancement of several commercial development initiatives to support the project and to prepare it for financing and physical commencement in the second quarter of 2010 as previously disclosed.

"Successfully getting through the critical Environmental Assessment process is an important milestone to achieve for every new project that BioExx undertakes and signals that we are now entering the final development stages of the project. BioExx is very excited about moving the Minot project forward and to commencing construction as soon as possible, once the Saskatoon facility is fully operational," said BioExx CEO, Chris Carl.
