GreenShift Sues Additional Ethanol Producers for Infringement

Moves to Consolidate All Pending Infringement Matters To One Court for Pretrial Proceedings

GreenShift Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: GERS) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, GS CleanTech Corporation ("GreenShift"), has commenced legal action against eleven additional ethanol producers for infringing on GreenShift's U.S. patent covering corn oil extraction technology.

The new complaints allege that the named producers are infringing GreenShift's U.S. Patent No. 7,601,858, titled "Method of Processing Ethanol Byproducts and Related Subsystems" (the '858 Patent), which covers processes for recovering corn oil from whole stillage, a precursor to the distillers grain co-product of corn ethanol production.

On May 6, GreenShift submitted a "Motion to Transfer Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1407 for Consolidated Pretrial Proceedings" to the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (the "Panel") located in Washington, D.C. In this motion, GreenShift has moved the Panel to transfer and consolidate all pending suits involving infringement of GreenShift's patents to one federal court for orderly and efficient review of all pre-trial matters.

Proven Win-Win Alternative

"Infringement is counter-productive; infringing producers can expect to pay more to produce less oil at significant exposure that increases with each pound of oil extracted," said David Winsness, GreenShift's Chief Technology Officer. "We have many millions of dollars and years of hard work invested into our patented corn oil extraction technologies and we are prepared to prosecute our rights for as long as may be needed. That said, we would prefer not to litigate and we would much rather focus on win-win solutions – we have demonstrated that producers can make more money by working with us than without us. All infringing use of our patented technologies needs to stop and all parties should instead refocus their energies and resources on continued innovation and value creation."
