Calyx has agreed to waive its pre-emptive rights to allow a third party to finance Agrisoma, which will dilute Calyx's stake in Agrisoma from 49.96% to 29%. Due to a lack of progress and financing options for Agrisoma, Calyx has cancelled an exclusive license of its intellectual property to Agrisoma and is now pursuing other agricultural opportunities. Calyx has also cancelled a planned private placement financing due to the changes regarding Agrisoma.

1. For Immediate Release
CALYX PROVIDES CORPORATE UPDATE AND
CANCELS PRIVATE PLACEMENT FINANCING
April 9, 2014 – Vancouver, British Columbia – Calyx Bio-Ventures Inc. (TSXV:CYX) (“Calyx” or the
“Company”) announces that it has entered into an agreement with BDC Capital Inc. and Agrisoma
Biosciences Inc. (“Agrisoma”) pursuant to which Calyx has agreed to waive its pre-emptive right in order
to allow a third party to finance Agrisoma. The proposed Agrisoma financing, if it were to proceed as
proposed and without Calyx’s participation will, upon closing, dilute Calyx’s interest in Agrisoma from
49.96% to approximately 29%. Following an evaluation by an Independent Committee of Calyx’s board
of directors, it was determined that in Calyx’s view, Agrisoma’s business had not progressed as expected,
and no options for financing Agrisoma could be found that would be satisfactory to shareholders of Calyx.
Additionally, intellectual property (“IP”) which was exclusively licensed to Agrisoma by Calyx is no
longer under exclusive license to Agrisoma. With the IP reverting to Calyx, Calyx is now able to license
and utilize its IP in other agricultural sector opportunities that it is currently investigating. The unique
and powerful features of this technology provide clear advantages for the development of plant-based
products. Calyx is in discussions and pursuing a number of new business opportunities in the agriculture
and agri-pharmaceutical sectors including the MMPR (Marijuana for Medical Purposes Regulations) and
marijuana biotech where we can bring our depth of agriculture capacities.
Accordingly, the Calyx board has determined to cancel the dilutive non-brokered private placement for
the issuance of up to 35 million units at a price of six cents per unit for cash proceeds of up to $2.1-
million previously announced on March 31, 2014.
