PRINCIPAL OFFICES ECGI’s corporate headquarters are located 3 Park Ave 16th floor New York, NY 10016 ECGI’s telephone number is 212- 321-0091 and its website address is: www.eventcardiogroup.com. PRODUCT OVERVIEW BreastCare DTS™ is an easy-to-use, single-use device, which has been cleared by the FDA to be marketed as an adjunct to mammography and other procedures for the detection of breast disease, including breast cancer. The patented device consists of two, soft, disposable pads that are lightweight and non-invasive, and are applied around the surface of each breast and worn for 15 minutes. 1,188 temperature sensitive sensors embedded in wafer-thin foil layers in each pad sense heat in the underlying tissues, changing color and highlighting regional temperature differences which can signify abnormal cellular activity associated with tumors or metabolic changes. BreastCare DTS™ is a non-invasive device which allows women to safely and affordably screen for breast disease throughout the year, when used in conjunction with annual or biannual mammography and clinical breast examination. BreastCare DTS™ has been shown in clinical studies to be particularly effective in detecting early tumors. The use and expanded availability of screening tests globally is crucial to lower mortality by detecting breast cancer at its earliest stage. The fact that stage 0 (noninvasive) and stage 1 (early invasive) breast cancers are highly curable (with 5-year survival rates of 100%) cannot be overemphasized. Early breast cancer detection and 3 education are being emphasized by the U.S. and other governments, healthcare companies and the general public as a way to reduce long-term healthcare costs and significantly reduce mortality from breast cancer. FDA CLEARANCE AND CLINICAL STUDIES BreastCare DTS™ has received FDA 510K clearance for marketing in the United States to be used by healthcare professionals as an adjunct to routine physical examination including palpation, mammography and other established procedures for the detection of breast disease including breast cancer. Clinical studies have been conducted on over 5,000 women in prestigious cancer centers in the U.S., Europe and Latin America, including Memorial Sloan-Kettering in New York and M.D. Anderson in Houston, Texas. Positive results have included finding 87.5% of early stage tumors and attaining a specificity of 86.5%; false negative rates of 3% – 13%; a positive predictive value of 98%; and a negative predictive value of 93% - 94%. MANUFACTURING ECGI has retained Ceres Technologies to engineer and design of the BreastCare DTS production line. ECGI anticipates contract manufacturing the BreastCare DTS device with Ceres Technologies. Ceres Technologies is an industry leader in electronics grade ultra high-purity and precision delivery systems for gases and precursors. The Company will also manufacture at other locations around the world as demand for BreastCare DTS™ increases. The intellectual property underlying the production process may provide additional protection from future potential competitors. Ceres has completed the design of the Company’s manufacturing line and performed a bench test to show that the proprietary dispensing system functions successfully according to specifications and needs only to be scaled to full production. The Company will employ sustainable manufacturing practices to minimize waste and energy utilization during processes, packaging and shipping. THE MEDICAL DEVICE AND BREAST CANCER DETECTION MARKET Globally Nearly 1.7 million new breast cancer cases were diagnosed in 2012. Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in women and men worldwide. In 2012, it represented about 12 percent of all new cancer cases and 25 percent of all cancers in women. Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer among women in 140 of 184 countries worldwide. Since 2008, worldwide breast cancer incidence has increased by more than 20 percent. Mortality has increased by 14 percent.1 In the U. S. 231,840 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed in women in 2015 and 62,570 new cases of breast carcinoma in situ (noninvasive, has not invaded nearby tissue), including ductal carcinoma in situ and lobular carcinoma in situ. It is projected that in the U. S. 40,290 women will die from breast cancer in 2015. Additionally 2,350 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed in men, 440 men will die from breast cancer.2 More than $3 billion is spent annually in the U.S. for breast cancer screening, yet only modest progress in reducing the death rate has been achieved. Mammograms are less effective in identifying cancers for women under 50; of the 231,840 women that will be diagnosed in the U. S. in 2015, 24,630 will be younger than 45 and 207,210 will be between 45 and 64. Lack of availability of mammography and other screening methods in developing countries has led to more than two-thirds of women in developing countries not being diagnosed until their cancers are locally advanced or have already metastasized. PRODUCT LAUNCH: ECGI currently intends to launch the BreastCare DTS™ device in the Australia and China through its network of distribution partners. ECGI will utilize education and media publicity campaigns to create awareness and acceptance. In developing countries where many women lack access to medical doctors and mammogram 1 2 World Cancer Research Fund International American Cancer Society, Cancer Facts & Figures 2015 4 technology, the Company’s will enlist governmental and private sector-funded health programs to help introduce the device. Current market research indicates a retail price point for BreastCare DTS™ at $39.95. At this price, we anticipate gross margins in the 73 to 78% range. The wholesale price will be adjusted based on individual contract parameters. ECGI anticipates selling 756,000 units in Year One revenues of $18 MM with Profits of $6.6 MM; 5,449,000 units in Year Two with revenues of $116 MM with Profits of $50 MM and 13,788,000 units in Year Three with revenues of $283 MM with Profits of $154 MM based on production ramp-up and current sales discussions and projections. It is anticipated that 100% of the sales are projected to be outside the US in Year One. The U.S. and other licensed markets will follow once production is scaled up to handle additional volume. MILESTONES ACCOMPLISHED TO DATE ECGI has acquired the exclusive distribution rights for BreastCare DTS™ to the U.S., Canada, Asia (China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Japan, Taiwan, North and South Korea, Thailand, Malaysia and the Philippines,) and non-exclusive as to the balance of the world, other than Latin America. Under the Licensing Agreement ECGI has claimed the countries of Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar and Bangladesh. The intellectual property licensed and the FDA clearance include: Intellectual property underlying the BreastCare DTS™ device and the use of FDA clearance, and, among other things, to begin to develop the infrastructure for a global product launch and to attract potential customers and influential individuals in the value chain. Manufacturing and production: Ceres has completed an important first milestone that will provide BreastCare DTS™ devices for testing and registration purposes while the full production line is being completed for larger production capacity. The full production line is expected to be capable of producing 1.8 million units per year with a single operation shift and as demand for the device increases can be ramped to include 2 or 3 shifts. The full manufacturing line is projected to commence production during the first quarter of 2016 and is expected to rapidly produce pairs of pads while maintaining strict quality control standards with only three operators. II. PROPOSED BUSINESS COMPANY MISSION AND VALUES The mission of ECGI is to bring low-cost medical diagnostic testing devices and education about the benefits of early detection of disease to people worldwide. The Company intends to operate according to triple bottom line (TBL) principles that define success based on fulfilling economic, ecological and social criteria. Economic. The Company will provide value for all stakeholders including shareholders. Ecological. The Company will operate globally according to sustainable manufacturing and packaging practices that minimize waste and energy utilization. The Company will be developing life-cycle assessment for our products. Social. The Company intends to donate a percentage of sales of the BreastCare DTS™ to support breast cancer education and research. The Company is exploring the option of establishing a foundation to direct the 5 disbursement of donations. In addition to the percentage of sales, the Company plans to host awareness events in conjunction with the education program. Profits from these events will also be donated to support education and research. The Company will collaborate with non-profit and government policy-makers to promote early detection. ECGI will strive to create a work environment for ECGI employees to provide a higher quality of life with respect, encouragement, integrity and fairness, always communicating honestly, allowing for creativity and will expect the same values reflected from ECGI employees, customers and suppliers. The Company will encourage volunteerism by employees to charities and causes of their choice and will sponsor volunteer activities and programs. BREASTCARE DTS™ ADVANTAGE The Company’s current plans to manufacture and sell BreastCare DTS™ are premised on the following: 1. BreastCare DTS™ is a noninvasive, easy-to-use device that allows all women to affordably screen for breast cancer throughout the year in conjunction with mammography and clinical breast examination. BreastCare DTS™ is inexpensive, lightweight and portable. Test results are shown on the device itself in a simple easy-to-read format. 2. BreastCare DTS™ is affordable to consumers in the developed world and to governments and health care providers in developing countries. 3. In developing countries with significant populations lacking access to screening methods such as mammography common in developed countries, BreastCare DTS™ has the potential to become the core of government-sponsored and other breast cancer screening programs. 4. By utilizing cause-related marketing, ECGI believes BreastCare DTS™ will resonate with the value chain and end-users that form a powerful community working at preventing the loss of lives due to breast cancer. ESTIMATED POTENTIAL MARKET SIZE The $3.5 billion per year market size that was estimated in the January 2008 Capgemini report that Life Medical Technologies commissioned was created using models to predict adoption rates of the BreastCare DTS™ device by age group and country for the first three years of marketing. Markets for various geographical regions were estimated using assumptions about increased or decreased number of uses per year of the device by age group and country, estimated wholesale price, population data, how healthcare is paid for in the region, that is through national health insurance or a blend of public and private coverage, and increased or decreased adoption rates. The Company’s projections for sales are less than 10% of the Capgemeni estimates for the world market. MARKETPLACE TRENDS The medical device market is about one-half the size of the world pharmaceutical market and is growing faster than its drug counterpart. Point-of-Care (PoC) testing is one of the most rapidly growing segments within medical devices and diagnostics. PoC tests include those conducted at a patient’s hospital bedside, in emergency rooms and clinics, in doctors’ offices, and by the patient at home. The global PoC testing market is projected to reach $18.7 billion in 2011, up from $10.3 billion in 2005. ECGI believes that BreastCare DTS™ meets all the major criteria for a successful PoC test. In the U.S. alone the combined breast cancer detection/diagnostic market was valued at more that $2.2 billion in 2008, and is expected to continue in a stable growth pattern over the next 5 years, increasing at a conservative growth rate of approximately 5.4% to rise to an estimated $2.8 billion in 2013. 6 The continued increase in awareness of the benefits and importance of early breast cancer detection and an increasingly aging population in the U.S. will increase demand for additional and adjunctive screening methods. Direct medical costs associated with treating breast cancer exceed $6 billion annually in the United States. When detected early, breast cancer can cost between $10,000 and $15,000 to treat. In more advanced stages, it can cost between $60,000 and $230,000. BREASTCARE DTS™ PRODUCT DESCRIPTION BreastCare DTS™ is patented, non-invasive and FDA-cleared as an adjunct to mammography and other established procedures for the detection of breast disease, including breast cancer. DTS stands for “Differential Temperature Sensor,” indicating the ability of the device to compare temperatures in one breast with the other. The BreastCare DTS™ device consists of two mirror image, lightweight and disposable foam pads with three wafer-thin foil sensors on each pad. Each of the three segments on each pad contains 18 rows of heatsensitive chemical dots. The device is easy to use and requires no electricity or probes. The test is completely non-invasive. The pads are easily placed on a woman’s breasts inside the bra for 15 minutes. The device measures the deep heat energy that is transferred to the surface of the skin. Each heat-sensitive dot is calibrated to record the temperature of the surface of the breast. The dots themselves change color from blue to pink when exposed to specific temperatures. The results are clearly displayed and can be immediately evaluated. The heat-sensitive dots have embedded memory, which allows the results to be read after each test is completed. An average temperature differential of 2 F or greater may indicate the presence of increased metabolic activity and a potential underlying pathology such as breast cancer. The BreastCare DTS™ device is not a definitive test for breast cancer; only a biopsy can diagnose breast cancer through extraction of cells from the breast. It is not intended to replace mammography and other detection methods, but to be used as an adjunct to other screening methods. The value of measuring elevated temperature as a risk marker for breast cancer is based on extensive published research pertaining to “angiogenesis.” Angiogenesis, the process by which new blood vessels are formed to facilitate the growth of a tumor, is one of the most heavily funded areas in the history of cancer research according to the Angiogenesis Foundation. The existence of a “tumor angiogenesis factor,” originally postulated by Nobel Prize winner Dr. Judah Folkman at Harvard University Medical School in 1971, has since been demonstrated as an indicator of breast cancer. The development of lesions or tumors in the breast results in temperatures near the lesions or tumors that is higher than the surrounding tissue, as a result of an increase in metabolism. Profound vascular changes occur at the site of tumor growth and lead to temperature changes that are transmitted to the surface of the skin. 7 Research related to angiogenesis spurred the development of the BreastCare DTS™ device. The chemical heat measurement technology utilized in the BreastCare DTS™ product is the first application of that technology to be employed in the detection of breast abnormalities. REGULATORY APPROVALS AND PATENTS The BreastCare DTS™ device received 510K clearance for marketing by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) as an adjunct to mammography and clinical breast examination for the detection of breast disease, including breast cancer. In addition, it has received the following international certifications: Health Canada sales clearance, allowing for over-the-counter sales in Canada. Previously sold under “CE” marking which allowed sale in the European Economic Area (EEA, the 27 Member States and EFTA countries Iceland, Norway, Liechtenstein and Turkey). Registration in Brazil with the Ministry of Health and through ANVISA, the government’s medical department with which it has importation clearance. Registration approval from the Federal Examination Service in the Region of the Protection of Consumer Rights and Welfare of People in the Chechen Republic. Registration approval from Comision Federal Para La Proteccion Contra Riesgos Sanitarios in Mexico. The US patent (#6,086,247 for BreastCare DTS™ Approximately four years remain on the current patent for the BreastCare DTS™ device before it expires. ECGI intends to file additional patents for BreastCare DTS™ if it is able to make improvements that qualify for patent protection, as to which no assurances can be given. SAFETY AND EFFICACY OF BREASTCARE DTS™ BreastCare DTS™ is intended for use by women of all ages when used as an adjunct to mammography and other procedures for the detection of breast disease including breast cancer. It is non-invasive and can be used safely at frequent intervals. Clinical studies conducted with over 5,000 women over an extended period in world-renowned medical institutions have thus far reported no adverse events or side effects. 8 SUMMARY OF CLINICAL STUDIES COMPLETED WITH BREASTCARE DTS™ Institution & Study Number Study 1 Memorial SloanKettering Cancer Center, M.D. Anderson Hospital & Tumor Institute, Brotman Memorial Hospital Study 2 Memorial SloanKettering Guttman Diagnostic Center No. in Study 179 Study 3 University Louis Pasteur Hospital 348 Study 4 Multiple Centers in Brazil 1,009 Study 5 North Shore University Hospital, European Institute of Oncology 2,805 151 Principal Investigator Dr. Ruth Snyder Dr. Gerald Dodd Dr. Harold Karpman Quotes from Investigators “Use of the BreastCare DTS™ device is expected to materially reduce the likelihood of missing a significant breast abnormality.” “Of significance, the BreastCare DTS™ device found 87.5% of the cancers in a tumor less than 1.0 centimeters in size. ”In 99.6% of the screenings, the clinic findings either confirmed the BreastCare DTS™ results or indicated that the device produced a positive result not in agreement with the clinical evaluation.” Dr. Philp Strax Dr. Michel Gautherie “Based on this study of 319 symptomatic women, the BreastCare DTS™ test appears to be objective and effective. Of the total of 43 cancers including 7 T0 (smaller 1 cm) and 18 T1 (1.0 – 1.9 cm) carcinomas, the sensitivity (true positive rate) was 83%.” Dr. Alfredo Barros “If breast physical examination is suspicious of cancer and the BreastCare DTS™ test is positive, the probability of having cancer is 98%.” “It is remarkable the fact that there have been 11 cases of cancer histologically confirmed in absence of clinical suspicion (8 = 3). Of these 11 cases, BreastCare DTS™ was (+) 8 times, that is to say, 3 cancers were lost. Moreover, of these 3 cancers, 2 were in situ forms and only 1 an invasive carcinoma.” “The high negative predictive values from these studies indicate that few cancers will be missed in a screening test with BreastCare DTS™.” Dr. Virgilio Sacchini “Considering 40% of the patients tested are less than 50 years old (a group for whom negative predictive values from mammography screening are generally low), the results of the two studies on BreastCare DTS™ are very encouraging.” Study 6 Multiple Centers in Uruguay Total Patients in All Trials 699 Dr. Alvaro Ronco Dr. José A. Carambula Dr. Alfredo Barros 5,191 “A high diagnostic accuracy of BreastCare DTS™ was achieved, mainly based on its high negative predictive value (above 93%).” The Company believes the completed clinical trials demonstrate that BreastCare DTS™: Identifies a present manifested form of angiogenesis that is feeding a tumor. Identifies an abnormality in the breast that suggests the risk of breast cancer in the patient. Successfully detected breast cancer in a patient as verified by a follow-up biopsy 9 MANUFACTURING ECGI has retained Ceres Technologies to engineer and design of the BreastCare DTS production line. ECGI anticipates contract manufacturing the BreastCare DTS device with Ceres Technologies. Ceres Technologies is an industry leader in electronics grade ultra high-purity and precision delivery systems for gases and precursors. The company also supplies advanced semiconductor vacuum deposition equipment and XRF metrology instrumentation. Ceres leverages this expertise to offer OEM, outsource design and build services, and contract manufacturing. The Company believes that through leveraging Ceres value-engineered equipment design, manufacturing, and turnkey system level integration, ECGI will be able to duplicate its operations at other locations around the world as demand for BreastCare DTS™ increases. This will allow ECGI to manufacture in additional locations while protecting the intellectual property of the device. The computer-controlled production line will take the process from raw materials through a final packaged product. The system is designed with the capability to package in virtually any language to enable ECGI to rapidly address the global market. Ceres has completed phase one of the development and bench proof of the proprietary process and is progressing to building the full scale manufacturing line. The FDA guidelines require that BreastCare DTS™ be manufactured under Good Manufacturing Practices for manufacturing, packaging and labeling and that proper documentation and records compliance guidelines be followed. ECGI intends to operate its manufacturing line five days per week with a double shift, producing six million units per year. Each additional manufacturing line is currently estimated to cost approximately $1,300,000, with what the Company believes will be a capability of producing four million units per year which should generate an estimated $65 Million of revenue per year if there is sufficient product demand. The Company currently anticipates that the first new manufacturing line will begin production in the first quarter of 2016. COST EFFECTIVENESS OF BREASTCARE DTS™ ECGI believes that BreastCare DTS™ is the only viable non-invasive, easy-to-use device that will allow all women in the US and other developed countries to safely and affordably screen for breast cancer throughout the year, in conjunction with annual or biannual mammography and clinical breast examinations. ECGI believes that in developing and more financially challenged countries with significant populations lacking access to screening methods commonly found in the US and other developed countries, such as mammography, BreastCare DTS™ has the potential to become the core of government-sponsored and other breast cancer screening programs. SUMMARY OF KEY FEATURES ASSOCIATED WITH EXISTING DETECTION OPTIONS Technology Overall Efficacy Primary Clinical Utility Value Women > 40 years old Cystic/solid mass discrimination Price per System Price per Scan Mammography 66-88% sensitivity Up to $600,000 $100 - $300 Ultrasound 48% sensitivity Up to $250,000 Up to $300 MRI 80% sensitivity Multiple malignancies Up to $2.5 million Up to $1,500 Nuclear Imaging (PET) 80% sensitivity Recurring cancers Up to $2.5 million Up to $5,000 10 ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING DETECTION OPTIONS AND OTHER TECHNOLOGIES * Too early to tell ** When used as an adjunct to clinical breast examination and mammography Capgemini prepared above tables. The Company believes that no current technology achieves all of the critical success factors associated with an effective breast cancer-screening tool. However, does believe the BreastCare DTS™ device as an adjunct has the potential to address each area noted in the Assessment Chart above. MARKETING INITIATIVES Global Market Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide, with nearly 1.7 million new cases diagnosed in 2012 (second most common cancer overall). This represents about 12% of all new cancer cases and 25% of all cancers in women. The global market for breast cancer diagnostic and drug technologies was about $20.8 billion in 2012. This market reached about $22.3 billion in 2014 and is expected to reach $27 billion in 2019, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4% through 2014-2019. ECGI has been actively engaged in obtaining purchase commitments outside the U.S., for the bulk of the first year’s anticipated production. Currently, the Company: Has signed a licensing agreement with MedPac Asia Pacific PTY Ltd, of Australia, granted the exclusive distribution rights for the BreastCare DTS™ device in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar and Bangladesh. It is anticipated that the distribution agreement will become a blanket purchase order for 25,000 units per month for year one of production and to increase as demand and production capability for the BreastCare DTS™ device increases. Is in the final stages of signing a licensing agreement with a Chinese company for China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea and Taiwan. It is anticipated that the distribution agreement will become a blanket purchase order for 75,000 units per month for year one of production and to increase as demand and production capability for the BreastCare DTS™ device increases. Is also involved in discussions with potential distributors in a number of other countries. 11 U.S. Market The United States market represents an excellent opportunity. It is projected that in the U. S. 40,290 women will die from breast cancer in 2015. Additionally 2,350 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed in men, 440 men will die from breast cancer.3 North America has the highest incidence rate for breast cancer in the world (92.9 cases per 100,000 people in the U. S. and 80 per 100,000 people in Canada). Despite the high incidence rate, only 72.6% of women aged 50 – 74 had a mammogram in the past 2 years, (National Cancer Institute Cancer Trends Progress Report – 2009/2010 - 2015 Update.) In a New York Times May 4, 2011 article regarding the recent New York City Public Hospital Audit, women had to wait up to 148 calendar days for routine screening mammograms and, when cancer was suspected, 50 working days for diagnostic mammograms. The U.S. healthcare insurance system is dominated by private carriers, which in 2013 represented 64% of the market. In 2013 approximately 42 million people are uninsured and government insurance covers the remaining population. Mammograms are reimbursed by Medicare once between the ages of 35 and 39, and then annually after 40. Medicare does not reimburse for mammograms in women under 35. Marketing a medical device in the U.S. is highly challenging and expensive, as promotional advertising targets both physicians and consumers. ECGI currently intends to partner with a distribution partner, the Company will also develop an in-house sales capability for physicians interested in purchasing the product directly. Physicians The initial marketing program for the US has been developed by the Company with input from physicians on ECGI’s Health Advisory board and other interested medical providers. It is currently anticipated that the program will initially target groups of approximately 100 physicians, and later approximately 1,000 physicians who have been selected on the basis of their expertise, reputations, and expressed interest in BreastCare DTS™. It is anticipated by the Company that BreastCare DTS™ is to be used in physician offices during patient visits as a screening device for breast abnormalities as part of a woman’s annual examination. It is then to be used by the woman six months later if she is not in a high-risk group, and every three months if she is in a high-risk group. It is not intended to replace mammography and other detection methods, but to be used as an adjunct to other screening methods. The Company believes symposiums and conferences will also be effective venues for educating large groups of physicians and medical personnel within a short timeframe. Physicians can see the product, discover how it works, and place group orders. Select panels of medical experts can speak about clinical trial results. BreastAware Community Breast Health Education Campaign ECGI intends to build awareness for its product through a Breast Health Education Campaign. Informal relationships have been established by the Company with federal and state health agencies, breast cancer support groups, corporate wellness programs, local hospital outreach programs, high schools, colleges and religious organizations. The BreastAware Campaign will focus on breast cancer education, risk reduction and early detection. The education program will be similar to marketing strategies employed by major pharmaceutical companies in raising awareness to develop consumer demand. The objectives of the BreastAware Campaign are: To empower women with accurate, comprehensive and up-to-date information on reducing the risk and increasing the early detection of breast cancer; To involve both patients and physicians in creating personal breast health programs; To increase awareness about mammography and other breast health modalities; To increase awareness about breast cancer and BreastCare DTS™; and To build a grassroots social network of women. 3 American Cancer Society, Cancer Facts & Figures 2015 12 When the Company’s product becomes available for commercial sale in large quantities, the BreastAware Campaign is intended to begin. The free program will provide women with a basic understanding of how to take greater control of their breast health. Management anticipates women will leave the program with information they can share with their doctors about BreastCare DTS™, and how they can access the product through their doctors. The program will target groups that can reach women in large numbers, in comfortable and familiar community venues that offer a sense of camaraderie. The bonding experience in these settings can provide a built-in “support group” for women who participate in our database. Electronic Initiatives The ECGI website (http://www.eventcardiogroup.com) features an animated 3D video showing how the device works. It illustrates the development of ancillary blood vessels, which feed a breast tumor. Research information about BreastCare DTS™ is also currently on the website. It is anticipated that the website’s content will be substantially expanded after product launch to create an interactive Web 2.0 social networking site along with utilizing crowd-sourcing software to reach large numbers of individual women as well as community support groups that will tie into the database program. Public Relations ECGI intends to gain significant exposure in the marketplace through a strong, cost-effective PR campaign leveraging several media. The Company believes breast cancer is a popular health topic in the news.
