Dr. Moro stated: "We are thrilled by this achievement. It is the result of a very lengthy due diligence Research; analysis; your homework. This term has caught on in all industries, because it sounds so "wired." Who would want to do analysis or research when they can do due diligence.

In a previous update we stated: 'We shall continue this process as many times as it takes, as there is more involved here than just a 'better exchange' for trading our shares. There is the vindication VINDICATION, civil law. The claim made to property by the owner of it. 1 Bell's Com. 281, 5th ed. See Revendication.  aspect that we feel our company, our management team and our shareholders justly deserve.' We have achieved our goal in this arena, as we have done and continue to do in the technical, licensing and finance areas. All this has been accomplished while keeping costs and share dilution at a minimum. We feel vindicated and we thank Lampost for their trust, their efforts and their belief in our potential as a company throughout the time it took to get this listing approved."

Dr. Moro stated, "This is not the last step in our interest to maximize our exposure to the advanced markets. We will continue to seek global coverage of the company since our technology is applicable to all world markets."

BioCurex Management wishes to congratulate and thank the company's shareholders for their support throughout this process.

The company also wishes to advise its shareholders of information regarding its approach to the establishment of its patents. To date, the Company has received patents in the USA, Russia, China and Australia. The company submitted a single patent application to the European Patent Office with over 40 claims rather than separate its diagnostic, imaging and therapeutic claims. Recently, the approach has not succeeded with the European Patent Office wherein approval for the single patent application has been denied, although we have not yet received an official response with the details from the EPO EPO

. It is the opinion of the attorneys in Europe that gaining approval in a subsequent action is probable once we separate the original claims under different applications in a process called 'separation in part.'

In addition, the Company is preparing and will file one or more new patents covering inventions developed in the past few moths This is an incomplete list of species of Lepidoptera that are commonly known as moths. Large and dramatic moth species
  • Death's-head Hawkmoth Acherontia atropos
  • Luna Moth Actias luna
  • Atlas moth Attacus atlas
. These inventions mainly relate to the RECAF blood tests and could extend our patent protection for another 17-20 years. These patents will not only be filed in Europe but also in the USA and other countries.

Finally, it is important to realize that the RECAF technology is very complex. Development of the technology is very tricky such that the proprietary 'know how' in working with the RECAF family of molecules is critical and beyond the basic patent information. The company always includes this 'know-how' in its licensing packages, and therefore can obtain significant royalties even in countries where there is no patent protection.
