FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Biofuels Institute Announces
2009 Ethanol Bankruptcies & Acquisitions Conference

Houston, Texas – April 30, 2009—The Biofuels Institute and Studium Conferences today announced the 2009 Ethanol Bankruptcies & Acquisitions Conference to be held July 30-31, 2009, at The Hotel Granduca in Houston, Texas.

This year has presented an unusual set of challenges to the ethanol industry. While being adversely affected by high corn prices, low oil prices and the global financial crisis, the industry has also seen substantial opportunities develop. The federal stimulus package, the Renewable Fuels Standard, and attractive pricing for distressed ethanol operations have all brought hope to an otherwise uncertain future.

At this critical point, The 2009 Ethanol Bankruptcies & Acquistions Conference will bring together individuals and companies from the broad range of industries impacting ethanol’s future: ethanol plant operators/suppliers, lenders, turnaround consultants, investors, attorneys, policy makers, academia, renewable energy media, and industry start-ups. Attendees will gain valuable information from a substantial presentation series, various panel discussions and exhibits. In addition, there will be significant opportunities for networking with attendees and exhibitors.
