Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this release that are not strictly historical are "forward- looking" statements. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, which may cause Heart Tronics' actual results in the future to differ materially from expected results. Factors which could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, failure to complete the development and introduction of heart monitoring and other biomedical devices incorporating Heart Tronics' technology, failure to obtain federal or state regulatory approvals governing heart monitoring and other biomedical devices incorporating Heart Tronics' technology, inability to obtain physician, patient or insurance acceptance of for heart monitoring and other biomedical incorporating Heart Tronics' technology, and the unavailability of financing to complete management's plans and objectives, including the development of heart monitoring, the compliance with purchase orders, payment for parts making up orders receiving by the Company and other biomedical devices incorporating Heart Tronics' technology. Additionally, Heart Tronics - in its prior name (Signalife) - has been sued in various class action lawsuits and has filed a lawsuit against alleged naked short sellers (and others, including the plaintiff's counsel in one class action matter), some of whom have since gone out of business for alleged naked short selling and other risky derivatives trading. These matters may negatively impact the Company or - possibly - may have the reverse impact. The Company and certain of its agents and prior agents are represented in defense of the class action lawsuits - and perhaps in other matters from time to time - by the national law firm of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP with respect to these matters. While the Company believes these class action lawsuits lack merit and may be frivolous, the presence of the matters creates an obvious risk to the Company. These risks are qualified in their entirety by cautionary language and risk factors set forth and to be further described in Heart Tronics' filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
