BIG NEWS a'COMING

GreenShift promised shareholders - since the first patent was approved on 13 October 2009 - that they would protect their huge investment in their patents.  In the recent annual report they stated:

"The Company intends to file additional lawsuits involving any and all infringing use of the Company’s patents. The Company’s position is that any infringing ethanol producer is liable for a minimum of reasonable royalties for any infringing use of the Company’s patented technologies beginning on the publication date of the ‘858 Patent. The Company intends to seek additional relief for instances of intentional infringement."p.54

It did not take long for the company to deliver on their promise.  We had four big Patent Infringement litigation's initiated on Monday, the 3rd of May.
