FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Any statements contained in this press release that do not describe historical facts may constitute forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements

assumptions underlying or relating to any statement described in points (i), (ii) or (iii) above.  Such forward-looking statements are not meant to predict or
guarantee actual results, performance, events or circumstances and may not be realized because they are based upon the Company's current projections,
plans, objectives, beliefs, expectations, estimates and assumptions and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties and other influences, many of which
the Company has no control over.  Actual results and the timing of certain events and circumstances may differ materially from those described by the forward-
looking statements as a result of these risks and uncertainties.  Factors that may influence or contribute to the inaccuracy of the forward-looking statements or
cause actual results to differ materially from expected or desired results may include, without limitation, the Company's inability to obtain adequate financing,
the significant length of time and resources associated with the development of our products and related insufficient cash flows and resulting illiquidity, the
Company's inability to expand the Company's business, significant government regulation of medical devices and the healthcare industry, lack of product
diversification, volatility in the price of the Company's raw materials, existing or increased competition, results of arbitration and litigation, stock volatility and
illiquidity, and the Company's failure to implement the Company's business plans or strategies. These and other factors are identified and described in more
