Hi Art,

To answer your questions:

<I'm glad to hear that we are getting 1.5 million from MRK, I missed that in the press release.>

That's because it wasn't in the press release. It came out in the conference call which followed the press release. It is a $1.5M up-front payment which gives Merck the right to negotiate with Bioject about specific vaccines.

< Has this commitment been made for particular vaccines?>

Not yet, but I understand that negotiations are under way.

< The ISO certification must be a done deal for MRK to make such a commitment, was there a press release on this?>

I haven't heard anything about this either. However, I visited the company in February, for the special shareholders meeting. During a tour of the facility after the meeting, the fellow who was leading the tour said that all the paperwork was in place for ISO certification.

<Anyone have impressions of the new CFO?>

I haven't yet met or talked to Mike Temple, but I have heard positive comments from people who have.

Regards,
Marc
