GeneralXsunX Ends 2005 on High Note [General] 04/01/2006 @ 03:57 (GMT +9)











XsunX Ends 2005 on High Note - Progress in Power Glass Development May Allow the Company to Launch Marketing Efforts in Spring 2006





ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Jan. 3, 2006 - XsunX, Inc. (OTCBB: XSNX), developer of Power Glass - an innovative thin film solar technology that allows glass windows to produce electricity from the power of the sun, announced today that it ended 2005 on a high note with continued progress in the development of its semi-transparent Power Glass thin films, that may allow the Company to begin marketing efforts of its technologies as early as Spring 2006.




"Our business goal has always been to develop products with application opportunities that promote the wide scale use of photovoltaic technologies," stated Tom Djokovich, CEO of XsunX, Inc. "In 2004 we took our idea to create a commercially viable solar cell for use on windows and created working prototypes, expanded our R&D capabilities, and acquired the rights to a proprietary manufacturing process. In 2005 we continued to direct our business initiative toward what we anticipate may be the launch of product marketing efforts as soon as this coming spring 2006. We will also start the new year with further progress toward our goal of developing innovative new solar cell designs, as we begin the development of an entirely new type of thin film solar technology," added Mr. Djokovich.




Power Glass, the first of the Company's technology development initiatives, is an innovative solar technology that is intended to allow windows to produce electricity from the power of the sun without significantly altering the appearance or use of the window or transparent surface.



The design of the solar cell provides for the manufacture of very thin solar cells on transparent flexible plastics. As part of the manufacturing process numerous individual cells are produced on rolled plastics substrates and interconnected using minimally apparent segmentations. The resulting integrated solar cell design is monolithic or uniform in appearance and simulates tinted solar control films used in window shading applications. The Company believes the advantages to the use of Power Glass films over current solar glass designs lye in improved esthetic appearance, reduced manufacturing or assembly requirements, and lower finished product costs.



The product of the Company's Power Glass development efforts is intended to provide marketable technologies in the form of an integrated solution providing commercially scalable manufactured processes, equipment designed for the specific manufacture of the Company's thin film solar technologies, and proprietary thin film solar cell designs that address new application opportunities.



Another year end milestone is the launch of the Company's Phase 4 program for the development of a new patent-pending 4 Terminal Nano-Crystalline solar cell.



This unique 4 Terminal solar cell design uses a combination of thin film transparent cell technology, derived from the Company's Power Glass initiative, with that of a nano-crystalline solar cell. XsunX believes that the combination of these two technologies into a single device holds a promising opportunity to deliver low cost, high efficiency, flexible, and light weight solar cells providing performance characteristics commonly found only in various forms of crystalline wafer technologies.

GeneralXsunX, Inc. Secures $5 Million Financing [General] 14/12/2005 @ 02:58 (GMT +9)


Investment Provides Immediate Cash Influx to Fund Company Growth



ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Dec 12, 2005 - XsunX, Inc.
(OTCBB: XSNX), developer of Power Glass(tm) -
an innovative thin film solar technology that
allows glass windows to produce electricity from
the power of the sun, announced today that it
has accepted $5,000,000 in financing from Cornell
Capital Partners, LP to help drive the continued
development and growth of the Company.



Under the agreement signed today, December 12, 2005,
Cornell has committed to provide $5 million of funding
in the form of Secured Convertible Debentures. The Company
received $2 million at the time of signing with an additional
$2 million to be advanced prior to the filing of a
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) in connection with the transaction,
and a final $1 million upon effectiveness of the registration
statement. The $5 million dollar debentures are in addition
to a previous debenture of $850,000 sold to Cornell.



Under the terms of the new financing, the Company would begin
receiving the influx of growth capital immediately allowing
for a more rapid acceleration of R&D and the initiation of
business development efforts. The additional $5 million
committed by Cornell Capital obviates the need for an Equity
Distribution Agreement, or SEDA, that the Company and Cornell
had entered into previously. The SEDA was terminated prior
to the issuance of this new debenture.



"Since the launch of our drive to commercialize innovative new
types of solar cell designs and manufacturing processes, we
have been fortunate in establishing strong relationships with
world class partners," stated Tom M. Djokovich, Chief Executive
Officer of XsunX, Inc. "With MVSystems, Inc., our technology
development partner, we have made significant progress in
product development, and expanded our intellectual
property assets.

In June we gained Cornell Capital as
a strong partner in the area of finance and with
Cornell's newly added $5 million dollar commitment
we now have an opportunity to accelerate various
aspects of our business plan in efforts to bring our
technologies to market as soon as possible," concluded
Mr. Djokovich.



"We are pleased with what we have seen in the performance of
XsunX and that of its development partner, MVSystems, Inc.,"
stated Mr. David Ratzker, V.P. Corporate Finance of Cornell
Capital, LP. "This has allowed us to significantly increase
our cash commitment with the Company."
