Third Quarter 2009 Business Developments and Announcements:  

• The Company’s Inlog subsidiary licensed its EdgeCell cellular therapy software and EdgeLab/HLA laboratory information management software for human leukocyte antigen matching (marketed as “Labo Serveur” in France) to Héma-Québec, the official blood supplier for Quebec, Canada.
• A binding letter of intent to market verIDhemos, a breakthrough transfusion safety RFID product, was signed with verIDentia SL of Spain.
• Global Med’s Wyndgate division, together with one of its major channel partners, licensed its ElDorado Donor, Donor Doc and eDonor solutions to a major East Coast pediatric hospital.

Mick Ruxin, M.D., Chairman and CEO of Global Med Technologies, Inc., commenting on today’s announcement stated, “The Company continues to increase revenue and profits in spite of the difficult economic climate. Although we continue to experience a longer sales cycle in the United States, we are pleased that our organic business revenues have continued to grow. In addition, we have seen a 23% increase in our Company’s backlog from the comparable quarter during 2008. Our Inlog and eDonor acquisitions are providing us with a number of cross-selling opportunities that have already begun to yield benefits, and we expect that trend to continue.”

Thomas F. Marcinek, the Company’s President and COO, stated, “Global Med continues to remain profitable in spite of difficult economic times. In addition, we recently signed a letter of intent (“LOI”) with VerIDentia SL to exclusively sell their verIDhemos transfusion safety system. VerIDentia’s product, VerIDhemos, is comprised of an RFID patient wristband with barcodes, a locked security container imbedded with electronic circuit boards containing microprocessors and memory, and a software system that is planned to be integrated with SafeTrace Tx ®, Wyndgate’s hospital transfusion system, and EdgeTrack, Inlog’s hospital transfusion system. The verIDhemos system is t he link that will close Global Med’s Vein-to-Vein ® loop. The LOI with VerIDentia has provided us with exclusive marketing rights in North America, Japan, Brazil, most of Europe, the Middle East and Asia. Although it is not currently available for sale in the U.S., Global Med will be seeking FDA clearance to market the verIDhemos product in 2010. We believe our relationship with VerIDentia will provide us with opportunities for additional sales to our existing customer base and elsewhere.”
