May 10, 2011, Toronto – Core Biofuel Inc.,
a Canadian biofuel company that is commercializing an advanced
biomass-to-gasoline production process, has signed a memorandum of
understanding (MOU) with a renewable energy project developer. The MOU provides
for the development of four Core licensed biorefineries in the Western
Hemisphere using Core’s patent-pending wood-to-gasoline technology over an
initial four-year period. The MOU contains provisions for extending both the agreement

of Core’s green gasoline produced through a pilot program. Core Biofuel will

partner utilizing our wood-to-gasoline technology. The developer has a long
history in the wood products industry throughout North America and brings that
