About Calyx 

Calyx Bio-Ventures Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CYX) is an agricultural technology company
focused on renewable fuels including biojet and biodiesel. Calyx is the largest
shareholder of Agrisoma Biosciences Inc., a company which is producing a new
proprietary non-food energy feedstock crop - carinata - which yields oil that
can be refined into fuels that work in existing engines as a 100 percent
petroleum substitute. From seed to sky, fuels produced from carinata
substantially reduce carbon and other harmful emissions, and help to reduce
global petroleum dependence. Carinata was used to fly the world's first 100%
biojet flight, as achievement that Popular Science called one of the top science
events on the planet in 2012. For further information about Calyx, please visit
