Year to date revenues of $5.575 million exceed prior year by 114%. Our third-quarter financial performance allowed us to continue to expand and develop our Giant King(TM) Grass bioenergy activities. We are making progress in our grass business which we believe will play an important role in the future of global biomass electricity and biofuels."

As was previously announced on November 7, 2011, the Company has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Seema Energy Co., Ltd, a renewable energy development company based in Thailand to jointly develop the detailed plan for a Giant King Grass plantation to fuel Seema's proposed 90 MW biomass power plant in Thailand. VIASPACE and Seema will initially jointly develop a test plot to optimize cultivation of VIASPACE's proprietary Giant King(TM) Grass in Thailand. The MOU provides for the supply of seedlings and development of a testing facility to assess and optimize Giant King Grass cultivation under Thai climate conditions. Giant King Grass has already been successfully grown in China.

Giant King Grass has similar characteristics to sugar cane but is not a food crop as it develops cellulosic material rather than sugar. It has been demonstrated to have the highest energy yield per hectare of potential energy crops.
