PrimeGen Retains Top New York Litigation Firm to Pursue Litigation Against Applbaum & Zouvas LLP

   PrimeGen Energy Corp. (PINKSHEETS: PGNE) ("PrimeGen" or the "Company") today announced that it has retained a New York law firm to pursue a claim for damages in relation to the dissemination of untruthful, misleading and false information to shareholders by the Company's former attorney Applbaum & Zouvas, which led to sharp reduction in the Company's stock price.

The Company intends to vigorously pursue legal action against Marc Applbaum and Luke Zouvas of Applbaum & Zouvas LLP, based in San Diego, CA, for disclosing false and misleading information to certain shareholders. PrimeGen is prepared to use whatever resources are necessary to focus the efforts of highly specialized and experienced legal counsel on this matter. The Company is fully committed to correcting and repairing this situation to improve the current stock price going forward.

Mr. Robert Charlton, President and CEO of PrimeGen Energy Corp., stated that, "We intend to seek damages to rectify the unfortunate circumstance respecting Applebaum Zovas; however, Primegen has also commenced initiatives to mitigate our damages and we are confident that, in the long run, the negative impact will be minimized."

Additionally, PrimeGen is in the process of hiring an experienced attorney to file the upcoming disclosures and financials on the OTC Pink Sheets. The year-end financials are due at the end of March and the Company will file results reflecting its strong performance to year-end, which has also continued into the current quarter.
