Francesca Bahr, sales manager at Unisense FertiliTech A/S says the CE mark will
allow us to market the instrument to Assisted Reproduction clinics across
Europe, with the goal of improving embryo assessment and to facilitate the goal
of elective single embryo transfer.

During IVF treatment, multiple oocytes are removed from the patient and
fertilized in-vitro. The resulting fertilized eggs are cultured for a period of
2 to 5 days, before the embryologist must select the best potential embryo or
embryos to transfer to the patient. Ideally, a single embryo resulting in a
single pregnancy is optimal as multiple pregnancies present risks to maternal
and fetal health.

A major challenge for the embryologist is determining which embryos have the
best potential to create a single healthy baby.

The EmbryoScope(TM) Monitoring System allows uninterrupted observation of embryo
development in a stable environment. Embryo quality parameters can be assessed
and reviewed without the potentially damaging effects of removing the embryo
from a controlled incubation environment. Retrospective analysis of development
will allow embryologists to identify potentially new parameters for embryo
analysis.

Mette Munch, Director of regulatory affairs at Unisense FertiliTech A/S says she
will now set her goal on FDA 510K clearance in order to facilitate marketing to
clinics in the United States.

The Announcement of the CE mark coincided with the successful sales launch of
the EmbryoScope(TM) Embryo Monitoring System at the European society of Human
reproduction and Embryology in Amsterdam, June 29.July 1 2009
