      Ballistic Recovery Systems, Inc. (Pink Sheets: BRSI), a manufacturer of 
      whole-aircraft emergency parachute systems, announced today that it has 
      officially accepted the keys to its new Corporate Headquarters building 
      from the City of South St. Paul. “The 
      combined efforts of City staff, architect, construction firm, and BRS 
      employees have produced a truly unique structure that will meet our 
      needs for years to come”, said BRS CEO, Larry 
      Williams as he joined South St. Paul Mayor Beth Baumann and other City, 
      State of Minnesota, and Minnesota Congressional delegation staffers in 
      the August 28th noontime Ribbon Cutting 
      ceremony. “We had outgrown our previous 
      facility which served us well for over 28 years so definitely needed to 
      find a structure (or build one in this case) that could accommodate the 
      aggressive plans we have for new products and markets” 
      he added. The new BRS facility has 15,000 square feet of production area 
      in addition to 6,000 sq feet of office and engineering design spaces. It 
      is located just down the road from the previous facility and still on 
      the grounds of the Fleming Field (South St. Paul) airport. BRS worked 
      closely with all parties to design the type of building and layout they 
      needed and entered into a long-term leasing agreement with the City of 
      South St. Paul, who is the landlord and owner of record, of the facility.
