Cheung, President and CEO of the Company commented: "We are pleased with the
revenue achieved in the short transitional period after the Company acquired the
Prolieve(R) business and we expect sales from Prolieve(R) will accelerate once
the transition is completed. We have assembled a seasoned sales and service team
and are gaining our customers' confidence in Prolieve(R) and the continuous
product and service support by Medifocus." 


Medifocus develops and commercializes minimally invasive heat treatment systems
used in treatment of cancerous and benign tumors, and enlarged prostate, Benign
Prostatic Hyperplasia ("BPH"). 


The Company owns two technology platforms with comprehensive US and
international patent protection: The "Endo-thermotherapy Platform" and the
"Adaptive Phased Array Microwave Focusing Platform". The Company has developed
two advanced therapeutic products: the Adaptive Phased Array (APA)-1000 system
for treatment of breast cancer and the Prolieve(R) system for the treatment of
BPH. The APA-1000 uses precisely focused and controlled microwave energy to
shrink breast cancer tumors without side-effects on the surrounding tissues to
produce better treatment outcomes. The Company has received regulatory approvals
to complete the APA 1000's pivotal Phase-III clinical trials, the final step
before marketing approval. The U.S. FDA-approved Prolieve(R) System
(www.prolieve.com) is a medical device based on endo-thermotherapy that both
heats the prostate and dilates the prostatic urethra. The Prolieve(R) System is
the only minimally invasive treatment option for the symptoms of enlarged
prostate in men indicated by the FDA as an in office treatment alternative to
drug therapy. The Prolieve(R) System is a revenue generating product catering to
the $8 billion non-surgical BPH drug market. The Company is currently focusing
on marketing Prolieve(R) for the treatment of BPH and completing the APA 1000
breast cancer system's Phase III study. For more information, visit
