The new provisional patent application is entitled “Lipophilic Active Agent Infused Tobacco Leaves and/or Tobacco Materials and Methods of Use Thereof”.

Through this and other patent applications under construction, the Company has a goal of managing between 150-200 patent applications around the world within two years.

Separately, Lexaria has received US$128,000 from the exercise of 250,000 warrants at the price of US$0.44 and the exercise of 30,000 warrants at the price of US$0.60, previously granted to third parties who are neither officers nor directors of the Company.

No commissions or placement fees have been paid related to the funds received from these warrants exercised. Proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.

Finally, Lexaria announces it has cancelled the contract announced on April 25 with GP Holdings LLC due to ongoing delays and non-performance.

The securities referred to herein will not be or have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
