COLUMBIA, S.C., Nov. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Collexis Holdings, Inc. (OTC

Form 15 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission to terminate

Collexis CEO Bill Kirkland explained, "We were pursuing a significant growth
strategy early in fiscal 2009 including acquisitions supported by large
fundraisings to achieve growth, with the ultimate goal of positioning the
Company for a NASDAQ listing.  However, since the collapse of the global
markets, Collexis had to adapt and move our strategy towards organic growth in
our core markets.  We divested our legal research business to focus and invest
in our growing Science, Technical, and Medical (STM) business.  The STM
business, we believe, can grow substantially in fiscal 2010 and may allow us
to achieve positive operational cash flow by our fiscal year end.  However,
the significant costs we incur on services and fees related to our public
filings and status do not contribute to our operational growth and are an
impediment to achieving our cash flow goals.  With the approval of our Board,
management decided that our available resources are better focused on our
business growth rather than on remaining a public company."  

Mr. Kirkland added, "There are a lot of other tangible advantages for us as
well.  The work we put in to remain public is a significant drain on our
management's time and attention and does not contribute to our financial
success.  I believe our current plans as a non-reporting entity will let us
maximize our company's potential for our shareholders over time."
