biOasis Secures DTC Eligibility

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - May 8, 2014) - biOasis Technologies Inc. (OTCQX:BIOAF) (TSX-VENTURE:BTI), a pioneering biopharmaceutical company focused on overcoming the limitations of therapeutic drug delivery across the blood-brain barrier, today announced that it has secured DTC eligibility by The Depository Trust Company (DTC) for its shares traded on the OTCQX® under the symbol BIOAF.

The DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), and manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly traded companies. Securities that are eligible to be electronically cleared and settled through the DTC are considered "DTC eligible." This electronic method of clearing securities speeds up the receipt of stock and cash, and thus accelerates the settlement process for investors and brokers.

"DTC eligibility increases the efficiency and lowers the cost associated of trading BIOAF on the OTCQX, while increasing security and lowering transaction risk for our investors," said Rob Hutchison, president and CEO of biOasis. "Securing DTC eligibility reflects our ongoing efforts to support our growing investor base in the U.S."
