                        Trading Update and Board Changes

Board of Directors 
 
Trading Update 
 
Following an excellent final quarter, the Board is pleased to announce that the 
Group expects to deliver a robust outcome for the year to 31st March 2010, with 
financial performance and liquidity well ahead of current market expectations. 
 
 
Board Changes 
 
After eight years of valuable service, David Kempton has decided that it is time 
to leave the Board, having seen the group through some challenging times.  David 
is resigning from his role as Deputy Chairman and senior Non-Executive Director 
with immediate effect. 
 
Concurrently, the Board also announces the appointment of David Leeming, as a 
Non-Executive Director.  David Leeming returns to the Board having remained 
close to the business as a shareholder for over ten years. 
 
In order to allow Geoff Spink to concentrate on his roles as Group Chief 
Executive, acting Finance Director and Managing Director of the Hartest Medical 
division, Geoff will now relinquish his role as Chairman, and focus on the 
development and growth of the business.  In the meantime, David Leeming will 
take on the role of Non-Executive Chairman. 
 
Jan Holmstrom remains as a Non-Executive Director. 
 
Geoff Spink, commented: "The Board would like to thank David Kempton for his 
valuable contribution to Hartest during the past eight years.  We wish him well 
for the future.  We welcome David Leeming, who joins at a pivotal moment for 
Hartest.  David has a wealth of experience, and will bring a new approach to the 
strategic development of the Group." 
 
"Hartest has had a strong year to March 2010 and has started the current 
financial year on a solid footing with stable trading and encouraging cash 
flow."
