Celebrating its 40th anniversary, Brown Medical Industries, in the
heartland of the United States, has been designing and manufacturing
quality, innovative orthopaedic products for distribution worldwide.

The well-respected product line includes the innovative **SEAL-TIGHT®**
cast and bandage protectors; the historically strong-selling
**Plastalume®** finger, hand, arm and leg splints; the comfortable
**Wris Timer®** carpal tunnel supports; and the practical **Soft
Stride™** shoe inserts.

Exciting newer products include the **Steady Step® Walker** walking
fracture orthosis; the **N´ice Stretch®** and **Stretch X™** night
splints for plantar fasciitis; as well as **Steady Strider™** for foot
drop; and **Sol Step™** for heel pain. **BMI™ Casting** was added in
2004 as its own product line.

Brand new products include the **Tennis Elbow Strap**; the **PF
Convertible Splint**™, which combines a walker and a night splint; the
**ER Splint™;** and the **Ice Splint™** cold therapy splint for finger
injuries.

Brown Medical is an ISO 9001-certified manufacturer and each product has
the CE Marking.

BMI provides distributors solid marketing support, including posters,
brochures, web site contacts, sales data, marketing research, trade show
leads, web-based training and unparalleled customer support with a
single point of contact. Brown Medical Industries seeks additional
quality distributors to join its team of professionals and help continue
its impressive sales growth over the past 40 years.

**Firms to target as distributors**

BMI is searching for quality distributors with medical -- especially
orthopaedic splints and softgoods -- sales experience. Most distributors
operate using their country to define sales borders. Brown Medical´s
products can be sold at both the retail level and at the medical
professional level. The best-performing distributors sell in Europe to
the hospitals, clinics and doctors and supplement this effort with
retail sales calls. Therefore, a strong familiarity with and experience
in selling to doctors is a good indicator of future success.

BMI has exclusive European distributors in Holland, the UK, Greece,
Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Ireland. We are searching
for European distributors in Eastern Europe, Italy and France.

Brown Medical has a German distributor, although no exclusive agreements
have yet been signed. BMI does operate in several countries with
multiple distributors of different products, but never the same products
represented by different distributors.

Noninvasive Medical Technologies, LLC ("NMT") is the manufacturer of the
leading, noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring systems in existence, and
the only manufacturer of a noninvasive fluid status monitor. NMT's
technology was approved by the U.S. FDA in 1994 and has been used with
great success since then in heart failure clinics, hospitals, trauma
centers, physicians' practices and medical schools in the United States,
Canada, Europe and the Pacific Rim. In addition to trauma, hypertension,
end stage renal disease, post operative fluid management and physical
assessments, the application of the NMT technology will benefit many of
the 550,000 new heart failures patients each year and address demands
for lower healthcare costs in a patient segment that spends \$40 billion
per year in the U.S. alone. By using NMT's tests at an amount less than
USD \$10 per test instead of a surgical diagnostic catheterization at a
rate of thousands of dollars per test, dramatically reduces costs and
allows the clinician earlier access to vital information with none of
the risks of surgery. In a few minutes, NMT's IQ series produces the
same data as a diagnostic Swan Ganz catheterization that requires a
minimum of a full day in the hospital. Our clients include Glaxo
Smith-Klein, Georgetown University School of Medicine, Yale, and the
University of Southern California Trauma Centers and its School of
Medicine

NMT is bringing its unique technology out of the research and university
sectors into the commercial world. NMT is seeking international
distribution partners to exclusively manage the distribution and sales
of its ZOE™ fluid status monitor and its new IQ^2™^ hemodynamic
monitoring system within their territories. The ideal candidate will
have significant contacts in the hospital, medical office and home care
arenas. They will have an existing medical sales force, the capacity to
inventory and service our suite of products. They will also have the
responsibility for licensing and import logistics within their territory
with NMT's full assistance.

Vertis was founded in 1999. Since that time, the company has focused its
efforts on the development of technology platforms that are based on a
highly innovative dimension of the new and growing field of
neurotechnology---the application of electrical therapies to treat
diseases and disorders that affect the central nervous system.

Vertis PNT (Percutaneous Neuromodulation Therapy) is a minimally
invasive therapy for neck and back pain involving the delivery of
electrical stimulation to the deep tissues near the spine. The Vertis
PNT System is indicated for the symptomatic relief and management of
chronic or intractable pain and/or as an adjunctive treatment in the
management of post-surgical pain and post trauma pain. The system
includes a control unit, applicationspecific patient cables, and
sharps-safe, single-use Safeguide® electrodes. The Vertis PNT System is
designed for use in the physician's office.

The prevalence of pain-related medical conditions is staggering. As a
result, there is increasing interest in the topic of pain management as
physicians grapple with the most appropriate treatment for patients
suffering from short- and long-term episodes of low back pain.

Vertis' objectives for attending Medica are as follows:

> 1\. Locate distributor(s) in Germany that have solid experience
> selling Pain Management devices to the medical field.
>
> 2\. Locate distributor(s) in France, Poland, Japan, and China that
> have solid experience selling Pain Management devices to the medical
> field.

Vertis already has distributors in U.K., Ireland, Spain, Italy, Austria,
Benelux, and Scandinavia.
