• The Company's utilities/infrastructure construction division renewed a three year, multi-million dollar service contract with one of Canada's premier power suppliers and due to the high level of service and quality of work, this division was awarded a second contract from the same customer that is similar in size and scope. These contracts were signed in February of 2013.
• The Company added depth to its management team hiring Warren Cabral, CA as Chief Financial Officer to assist with the future growth of the Company.

• Also in February, the Company signed a letter of intent to acquire a specialized underground infrastructure construction company for $12,000,000.

Forward Looking Information
Certain statements contained in this news release constitute forward-looking information. These statements relate to future events or the Company's future performance. The use of any of the words "could", "expect", "believe", "will", "projected", "estimated" and similar expressions and statements relating to matters that are not historical facts are intended to identify forward-looking information and are based on the Company's current belief or assumptions as to the outcome and timing of such future events. Actual future results may differ materially. In particular, statements with respect to the completion of the proposed acquisition, the terms and conditions of the transaction, the completion of an asset-based debt financing and financial information relating to the private company include forward-looking information. The proposed acquisition may not be completed on the terms and conditions contemplated herein or at all. The Company's Annual Information Form and other documents filed with securities regulatory authorities (accessible through the SEDAR website www.sedar.com) describe the risks, material assumptions and other factors that could influence actual results and which are incorporated herein by reference.

Non-IFRS Measures
The Company uses International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). EBITDA is not a measure that has any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and is therefore referred to as a non-IFRS measure. This news release contains references to EBITDA. This non-IFRSmeasure used by the Company may not be comparable to a similar measure used by other companies. Management believes that in addition to net income, EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure as it provides an indication of the results generated by the Company's principal business activities prior to consideration of how those activities are financed or how the results are taxed. EBITDA is calculated as net income excluding depreciation, amortization, interest and taxes.

May 6, 2013 has been fixed as the record date for determining shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting.

SilverCrest also announces the approval by its Board of Directors of an advance notice policy. This requires advance notice to the Company where nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors are made by shareholders other than pursuant to the requisition of a meeting or a shareholder proposal. The purpose of the policy is to provide shareholders, directors and management of SilverCrest with a clear framework for nominating directors of the Company. This will ensure that all shareholders receive adequate notice of the director nominations and sufficient information regarding all director nominees, facilitate an orderly and efficient shareholders' meeting and allow shareholders to register an informed vote after having been afforded reasonable time for appropriate deliberation.
The advance notice policy fixes a deadline by which holders of record of common shares of the Company must submit director nominations in writing to the Company prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders at which directors are proposed for election, and sets forth the information that a shareholder must include in the notice to the Company. No person will be eligible for election as a director of SilverCrest unless nominated in accordance with the advance notice policy.
Notice to the Company must be provided not less than 30 days and not more than 65 days prior to the date of an annual general meeting provided, however, in the event the annual general meeting is to be held on a date that is less than 50 days after the date on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice may be provided not later than the close of business on the 10th day following such public announcement.
In the case of a special meeting of shareholders which is not also an annual meeting, notice to the Company must be made not later than the close of business on the 15th day following the date on which the first public announcement of the date of the special meeting was made.
For the upcoming annual meeting of shareholders, any notice delivered to the Company prior to the close of business on May 10, 2013 shall be deemed to have been timely delivered.
The advance notice policy is effective immediately and will be placed before shareholders for approval at the annual meeting on June 11, 2013. The full text of the policy is available under the Company's profile at www.sedar.com and on the Company's website. The advance notice policy will remain in effect unless amended or rejected by shareholders at the meeting.

Under this policy, if a nominee does not receive the affirmative vote of at least the majority of votes cast, the Director shall promptly tender a resignation for consideration by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and the Board. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee shall consider the resignation and recommend to the Board the action to be taken with respect to such offered resignation, which may include: accepting the resignation, maintaining the Director but addressing what the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee believes to be the underlying cause of the withheld votes, resolving that the Director will not be re-nominated in the future for election, or rejecting the resignation and explaining the basis for such determination. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee in making its recommendation, and the Board in making its decision, may consider any factors or other information that they consider appropriate and relevant.

These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on expectations of future performance, including silver and gold production and planned work programs. Statements concerning reserves and mineral resource estimates may also constitute forward-looking statements to the extent that they involve estimates of the mineralization that will be encountered if the property is developed and, in the case of mineral reserves, such statements reflect the conclusion based on certain assumptions that the mineral deposit can be economically exploited.

Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The Company's forward-looking statements are based on beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date the statements are made.

Mining Stock News: SilverCrest (TSX.V: SVL) (NYSE MKT: SVLC) Announces Q1 Production 153,481 Ounces Silver & 7,225 Ounces Gold

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - April 24, 2013 (Investorideas.com Mining Stocks Newswire) SilverCrest Mines Inc. (TSX.V:SVL) ( NYSE MKT: SVLC) (CW5.F) ("SilverCrest" or the "Company") is pleased to announce production figures for the first quarter of 2013 from its 100% owned Santa Elena Mine located in Sonora, Mexico.

Production Highlights of Q1, 2013 vs Q4, 2012;

• Silver production of 153,481 ounces was consistent with 153,863 ounces in Q4.
• Gold production decreased by 8% to 7,225 ounces.
• Ore Tonnes crushed decreased 18% to 252,830 tonnes due to focus on removing more waste tonnes.
• Waste to ore ratio increased to 4.27 from 3.07 due to planned increased waste stripping.
• Crusher throughput averaged 2,809 tonnes per day compared to 3,355 tonnes per day in Q4, 2012.
• Stacking conveyors replaced truck haulage of crushed ore with cost savings in Q1.
• Grades for ore loaded on the pads increased 4% and 9% for silver and gold respectively.

During Q1, 2013 the Company elected to accelerate waste removal (+19%) in advance of the hotter summer months when equipment availability and efficiencies have historically declined. The accelerated waste removal resulted in less ore processed (-18%) and silver equivalent ounces produced (-5%) during the first quarter. This sets the stage for a significant reduction in strip ratios and more ore tonnes processed with higher metal production in the second half of 2013. The Company maintains its corporate market guidance of 625,000 ounces of silver and 33,000 ounces of gold for 2013.
J. Scott Drever, President stated: "Our decision to accelerate waste removal is consistent with our overall mine plan for 2013 operations. We are comfortable that as the ultimate strip ratio declines and the ore grades in the pit continue to increase we will meet our production and cost projections for the year. We expect the positive results of improvements in these two metrics to become apparent in the second half of 2013."
Q1 2013 Santa Elena Expansion Plan Update:

• As of March 31, 2013, approximately 40% of the budgeted 2013 capital cost of US$65M has been spent or committed.
• The Plan is currently on budget with scheduled mill start up in January 2014.
• On-site construction of the 3,000 tonne per day mill is well underway with earthworks complete, concrete for foundations being poured and CCD tank and thickener construction commenced.
• All major equipment has been ordered with committed delivery dates and the majority of the construction contracts are in place with contractors working on site.
• Drilling to better define and expand resources and reserves is completed with revised numbers expected in May 2013.

First Quarter Financial Results Release:
The Company plans to issue its first quarter financial results on Wednesday, May 15, 2013.
The Qualified Person under NI 43-101 for this News Release is N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, and Chief Operating Officer for SilverCrest Mines Inc., who has reviewed and approved its contents.

SilverCrest anticipates that the 2,500 tonnes per day facility should recover approximately 4,805,000 ounces of silver and 179,000 ounces of gold over the 6.5 year life of the open pit phase of the Santa Elena Mine. A three year expansion plan is underway to double metals production at the Santa Elena Mine and exploration programs are rapidly advancing the definition of a large polymetallic deposit at the La Joya property in Durango State.

Interview with Oilfield Services/ Frac Water Company HII Technologies (OTCBB: HIIT)

Point Roberts, WA - April 22, 2013 (Investorideas.com Newswire, www.water-stocks.com) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research, issues an exclusive Q&A interview with oilfield services and frac water supply company, HII Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: HIIT). Mr. Matthew Flemming, CEO of HII Technologies, discusses recent financial results, second quarter guidance and growth opportunities moving forward.

Q: Investorideas.com
Matt can you give investors a brief overview of the different divisions within HII Technologies?
A; Mr. Matthew Flemming, CEO
HII Technologies includes services and technology in Water, Safety and Power. The Company’s frac water supply services subsidiary does business as AES Water Solutions, its onsite oilfield contract safety consultancy operates as AES Safety Services, and its mobile oilfield power subsidiary does business as South Texas Power (STP). Its primary operations are in Texas and Oklahoma.
According to Baker Hughes Rig Count recent published data, about 57% of the rigs in the United States are operating in Texas and Oklahoma.
The Company is positioned to take advantage of the significant anticipated growth in horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing within the United States. Active shale and unconventional “tight oil” plays such as Eagle Ford Shale, Woodbine, Permian basin and Granite Wash are monetized by HIIT deploying new oilfield related technologies to enhance the value of its Water, Safety and Power services to its customers.
Q: Investorideas.com
You recently announced fourth quarter and year end results. Can you give us the highlights and how each division performed?
A; Mr. Matthew Flemming, CEO HII Technologies:
Our fourth quarter '12 revenues of $1.64 million exceed the cumulative total of the first three quarter’s 2012 combined. Our largest division, AES Water Solutions performed exceptionally well for the quarter and year ending December 31, 2012. Also, the Safety and Power divisions being relatively new are anticipated to have significant further revenue impact in 2013 as we go forward. AES also made a purchase of water transfer assets and rolling stock in November ’12 for about $600 thousand which management believes was more than $1.2 million in market value. These assets were quickly deployed in the field to build our rental fleet of equipment and had a positive impact on revenues during the 4 th quarter 2012.
Q: Investorideas.com
You also just reported preliminary first quarter 2013 revenues up an estimated 300%. Can you discuss the growth curve and factors contributing to the numbers?
A; Mr. Matthew Flemming, CEO HII Technologies;
For fiscal 2013, we anticipate additional revenue contribution from the Power and Safety divisions, known as South Texas Power and AES Safety Services. All three divisions, Water, Power and Safety exceeded budgeted revenue plans for the 1 st quarter 2013 and met several milestones. AES Water Solutions had significant revenue gains in the quarter as it expanded further geographically into West Texas and South Texas, adding several new customers to its mix. Likewise, both South Texas Power (STP) and AES Safety Services grew revenues and added customers. STP built out its operations in the Eagle Ford Shale market, deploying both generator and light tower rental equipment. AES Safety Services also performed well achieving several goals including establishing operations in Ohio where the State requires safety personnel on site 24/7 from the initial site prep to final completion of the oil or gas well.
Q: Investorideas.com
Can you give investors insight into your competitive advantages from both technology and cost perspectives?
A; Mr. Matthew Flemming, CEO HII Technologies;
One significant example at South Texas Power ; when we bring natural gas powered generators to onsite oilfield operations where no electricity grid exists, we can cut the cost of fuel by 80% or more compared to traditional diesel powered generators for oilfield customers.
In our water division, we are looking into technology solutions to provide h igh volume, price competitive, onsite, mobile recycling of flow back water used in hydro-fracing.
Our technology and pricing gives us a long term sustained advantage.
Q: Investorideas.com
Your reported revenue guidance of $2.6 million for the second quarter 2013; can you give insight to where you see the revenue growth within each division?
A; Mr. Matthew Flemming, CEO HII Technologies
This is modeled off our current revenue run rates by division and again because of our two newer divisions we believe we will continue to see good top line revenue growth on a consolidated basis.
Q: Investorideas.com
Where do you see the most potential moving forward?
A; Mr. Matthew Flemming, CEO HII Technologies
The water market is very large and growing especially in oil and gas segment. Its is possible that the water market for oilfield could represent a large long term opportunity if the commodity scarcity continues to play a role and oil/gas companies continue to pay such hefty amounts to source water for their hydro-fracing uses.
About HII Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: HIIT)
HII Technologies, Inc. is a Houston, Texas based oilfield services company with operations in Texas, Oklahoma, Ohio and West Virginia. The Company is positioned to take advantage of the significant anticipated growth in horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing within the United States' active shale and unconventional "tight oil" plays by deploying new oilfield related technologies to enhance the value of services to its customers.

According to a recent article in Times of India, venture capitalists see the significant opportunity and are investing heavily in the e-payment sector . "A combination of positive regulatory intent and growing market demand is leading to a burst of entrepreneurial activity in the country's electronic payments sector. A number of new ventures offering innovative cashless payment methods are coming up as investors step up to fund and support them."
For investors looking for publicly traded companies in the space, there are a handful of companies already gaining traction.
India Mobile Payment Stocks Snapshot
Calpian, Inc. (OTCQB: CLPI) reported in early April that its Indian subsidiary, Money-on-Mobile, had its largest growth month to date. According to the press release, " As of March 31, 2013, the Money-on-Mobile service offered by its Indian subsidiary, is now being supported by over 130,250 retail locations, increased from 126,200 on February 28, 2013, and accessed by approximately 44 million unique phone number customers, up from the 39.5 million reported from the previous month. The March 2013 processed transaction volume, measured in Indian rupees, was 810 million INR - an approximate 149 million increase over February 2013 processed volume. At current exchange rates, March processed transaction volume was approximately $15 million.
Calpian's (OTCQB: CLPI) stock is trading in the $2.00 range with a 52 week high of $3.25.
According to Calpian CEO, Harold Montgomery, "The growth of Money-on-Mobile is nothing short of astounding.

Following a successful trial, the service will be offered initially through more than 8,300 specially trained and authorised M-Pesa agents in eastern areas of India, including Kolkata, West Bengal, Bihar and Jharkhand, covering a population of around 220 million people. The service will be rolled out across the rest of India in a phased approach."

Medical Technology Breaking News: Aethlon Medical (OTCBB:AEMD) Discloses Cancer and Infectious Disease Therapy Presentation at ISEV 2013

SAN DIEGO - April 18, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) - Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB: AEMD), disclosed that a poster presentation entitled: "Extracorporeal Exosome Removal: A Therapeutic Strategy to Address an Evolutionary Survival Mechanism Shared by Cancer and Infectious Viral Pathogens," is being presented today at the International Society of Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV) 2013 conference being held in Boston, MA. Dr. Annette Marleau, Director of Tumor Immunology at Aethlon Medical will give the presentation. Information related to ISEV 2013 can be accessed online at: www.isevmeeting.org

The Aethlon presentation discusses the specificity of the Aethlon Hemopurifier® to address evolved glycopathogen targets that are instrumental in cancer and infectious disease progression. Significant points addressed in the presentation include emerging knowledge of exosome secretion, which is a notable feature of malignancy owing to the diverse roles of these particles in tumor-mediated immune suppression, angiogenesis, metastasis, and resistance to therapeutic agents. As cancer-secreted exosomes remain a critical target not addressed by drug therapies, the Company is expanding the potential utility of the Hemopurifier® to include cancer. In this role, the Hemopurifier® provides an adjuvant strategy to improve current and emerging cancer treatment outcomes without adding drug toxicity. To date, pre-clinical Hemopurifier® studies have validated the capture of exosomes underlying breast cancer, metastatic melanoma, ovarian cancer, lymphoma, and colorectal cancer.
The Aethlon Hemopurifier® consists of the lectin Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA) immobilized in the outer-capillary space of a plasma membrane device that is compatible for use with standard CRRT and dialysis units. GNA-based capture is mediated by unique high mannose signatures abundant on the surface of cancer-secreted exosomes as well as glycoproteins that reside on the outer membrane of infectious viral pathogens.
In human studies of treatment naive HIV and Hepatitis-C (HCV) infected individuals, Hemopurifier® therapy demonstrated average viral load reductions of greater than 50% during single four-hour treatment applications. A three-treatment Hemopurifier® protocol combined with interferon-based standard-of-care resulted in undetectable HCV in as little as seven days in hard-to-treat genotype-1 patients. In this same clinical program, post-treatment elution studies documented the capture of up to 300 billion HCV copies by the Hemopurifier® during a single six-hour treatment. A human feasibility study to initiate HCV human studies in the United States is pending IDE approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Based on human treatment experience and exosome capture validations, the Company has identified candidate research centers to conduct a Hemopurifier® therapy study in cancer patients.
About Aethlon Medical
Aethlon Medical creates innovative medical devices that address unmet medical needs in cancer, infectious disease, and other life-threatening conditions. Our Aethlon ADAPT™ System is a revenue-stage technology platform that provides the basis for a new class of devices the rapid, yet selective removal of disease promoting particles from the entire circulatory system. At present, The Aethlon ADAPT™ product pipeline includes the Aethlon Hemopurifier® to address infectious disease and cancer, and a medical device being developed under a 5-year contract with Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to reduce the incidence of sepsis in combat-injured soldiers. For more information, please visit www.aethlonmedical.com.
About The Aethlon Hemopurifier®
The Aethlon Hemopurifier® is a first-in-class medical device that selectively targets the rapid clearance of infectious viral pathogens and immunosuppressive proteins from the entire circulatory system. In the treatment of Hepatitis C virus (HCV), human studies have demonstrated that Hemopurifier® therapy may improve immediate, rapid and sustained virologic response rates when administered in the first few days of standard-of-care drug therapy. In addition to accelerating viral load depletion, post-treatment analysis of the Hemopurifier® has documented the capture of up to 300 billion HCV copies of HCV during a single six-hour treatment. Access to Hemopurifier® therapy is available on a compassionate-use basis through the Medanta Medicity Institute (Medicity), a leading center for medical tourism in India. The Medicity is offering treatment access to infected individuals who previously failed or subsequently relapsed standard-of-care drug regimens. The Hemopurifier® is also being offered as a salvage therapy to infected individuals who suffer a viral breakthrough during standard-of-care therapy. U.S. studies of the Hemopurifier® are currently pending approval of an IDE submitted to FDA.
The Aethlon Hemopurifier® and Cancer
In addition to the opportunity to address a broad-spectrum of infectious viral pathogens, the Hemopurifier® has been discovered to capture tumor-derived exosomes underlying several forms of cancer. Tumor-derived exosomes have recently emerged to be a vital therapeutic target in cancer care. These microvesicular particles suppress the immune response in cancer patients through apoptosis of immune cells and their quantity in circulation correlates directly with disease progression. Beyond possessing immunosuppressive properties, tumor-derived exosomes facilitate tumor growth, metastasis, and the development of drug resistance. By addressing this unmet medical need, the Hemopurifier® is positioned as an adjunct to improve established cancer treatment regimens.
Certain statements herein may be forward-looking and involve risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements involve assumptions, known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Aethlon Medical, Inc. to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such potential risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, that the company can successfully protect its intellectual property, that removal of exosomes from the human body will impact or lead to successful treatment of cancer, or that exosomes are the cause of tumor growth and progression, that the FDA will not approve the initiation of the Company's clinical programs or provide market clearance of the company's products, future human studies whether revenue or non-revenue generating of the Aethlon ADAPT™ system or the Aethlon Hemopurifier® as an adjunct therapy to improve patient responsiveness to established cancer or hepatitis C therapies or as a standalone cancer or hepatitis C therapy, the Company's ability to raise capital when needed, the Company's ability to complete the development of its planned products, the Company's ability to manufacture its products either internally or through outside companies and provide its services, the impact of government regulations, patent protection on the Company's proprietary technology, product liability exposure, uncertainty of market acceptance, competition, technological change, and other risk factors. In such instances, actual results could differ materially as a result of a variety of factors, including the risks associated with the effect of changing economic conditions and other risk factors detailed in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

Mobile Stock News; Calpian, Inc. (CLPI) Goes Mobile on Two Continents

April 18, 2013 (Investorideas.com mobile payment stocks newswire) Investorideas.com, a leader in sector research for independent investors, reports on recent developments with Calpian, Inc. (OTCQB:CLPI). Calpian is a Dallas-based company which acquires retail credit and debit card processing cash flows from Independent Sales Organizations (“ISOs”) in the United States. The company also is a substantial owner of the largest mobile money transfer company in India, known as Money- on - Mobile, which allows consumers to pay bills and send money to other users throughout India, a service which regulatory changes made possible in just 2011 and which provides a greenfield opportunity in this country of 1.2 billion people. Additionally, Calpian's recent acquisition has expanded the company's mobile payment presence to now include the U.S., in addition to its Money-on-Mobile subsidiary in Mumbai, India.

On March 18 th Calpian announced it had completed the purchase of the assets of Pipeline Data, including its proprietary payments-related software and services and access to third-party payment platforms.
According to recent filings in the bankruptcy court for Pipeline Data, the company generated roughly $27 million in gross revenues.
Calpian, Inc.'s President, Craig Jessen, said in a March 18 th press release, "This acquisition represents Calpian Inc.'s commitment to becoming a world-class payments company with leading-edge solutions for virtually every payment scenario.”
According to the company's website, Calpian appears to be rebranding the new acquisition as Calpian Commerce, and rethinking its marketing strategy.
From recent additions to the company's website for Calpian Commerce, it describes its mobile payments solution, AIRCHARGE™, as a wireless terminal that communicates with the processor via the company's proprietary payment gateway, SecurePay™.  AIRCHARGE™ may be ideally suited for any merchant - large or small - with a mobile business.  It is different from other mobile solutions as it supports payment processing for merchants with one or multiple business operations allowing for simpler, quicker and more accurate reconciliation, all through the company's proprietary gateway, SecurePay™. A plumbing service with a fleet of trucks, for example, can completely process electronic payments with real-time authorizations and printed receipts while at each service location.  The company's products are expected to cut down on the cost of accepting electronic payments and help the merchant be more competitive by offering its customers cost -effective preferred payment options.
According to the company's March 18 th press release, "Calpian Commerce offers access to leading third party payment platforms to process credit and debit card transactions [through its SecurePay™ payment gateway], ACH, [and] mobile acceptance [through its AIRCHARGE™ product] to merchants in the U.S. operating in the physical “brick and mortar” environment as well as over the Internet, and in settings requiring wired as well as wireless/portable payment solutions."
On April 3 th, Calpian, Inc. reported that, as of March 31 st, 2013, Money-on-Mobile is now being supported by over 130,250 retail locations, increased from 126,200 on February 28 th and accessed by approximately 44 million unique phone number customers, up from the 39.5 million reported from the previous month. The March 2013 processed transaction volume, measured in Indian rupees, was 810 million INR - an approximate 26.6% increase over February 2013 processed volume. At current exchange rates, March processed transaction volume was approximately $15 million.
Going forward, it will be interesting to see whether the company might soon qualify for listing on a major exchange where it could enjoy greater visibility and build a more robust following of its shares. If that were to happen, acting ahead of such a move could represent a buying opportunity. However, it is impossible to say whether or not such a move is likely and /or predict how it might affect the performance of the stock.

Biodefense Stock Alert; Aethlon Medical (OTCBB: AEMD) Moves Following News on Contract

Point Roberts, WA - April 17, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) - Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research for independent investors including biodefense and homeland security stocks issues a trading alert for Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB: AEMD), trading at $0.1099, up 0.0070 6.80% 12:43PM EDT on over 688,000 shares. The stock had a morning high of $0.12.

The company reported yesterday it entered into a subcontract agreement with Battelle Memorial Institute (Battelle) to provide services underlying a $22.8 million prime contract that was recently awarded to Battelle by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).
According to the press release, "The objective of this contract program is to integrate component technologies developed in DARPA's Dialysis Like Therapeutics (DLT) program into medical device that would save military and civilian lives by effectively treating sepsis. Beyond expanding our opportunity in the DLT program, we are honored to have the opportunity to work with Battelle (the world's largest independent research and development organization) on this endeavor."
The Company's Chairman and CEO also went on to say, "I am pleased to report that the funding spigot for countermeasures against bioterror and pandemic threats has been turned back on. Last month, The Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Reauthorization Act (PAHPRA) of 2013 was signed into law by President Obama. The law reauthorizes provisions of the Project Bioshield Act of 2004 and extends the mandate of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) to support medical countermeasure development for biothreat agents for possible inclusion in the U.S. Strategic National Stockpile. PAHPRA also enhances the authority of the FDA to support rapid responses to public health emergencies by clarifying that even before an event occurs, FDA may issue an emergency use authorization to allow emergency use of certain products as medical countermeasures. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that $11 billion will be spent on PAHPRA between fiscal years 2014 to 2018."
