Mr. Jacobs What is the current production capacity of the Fast 1 per month? The last time that you updated us on this the production per month was still being ramped up. I believe it was around 3 or 4 thousand a month at that time. Has it increased? Are alternative manufacturing options being evaluated to accommodate the tremendous influx of orders that should accompany increased exposure in the military and civilian markets due to the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care recommendation? Is the Fast1 going to be presented at any Medical device conferences this year? I have not seen any conferences mentioned on the website the last one listed was the TEMS in June 2004. Have you given up on this method of exposure? Here is a list of the Medical device conferences that the EZ-IO device by Vidacare will be presented at: WI EMS Milwaukee, WI 1/26-29 2005 National Association Of EMS Physicians (NAEMSP) Naples, FL 1/13-15 2005 Fire Dept Instructors Conf (FDIC) Indianapolis, IN 4/11-16 2005 EMS Today (JEMS) Philadelphia, PA 3/18-22 2005 Nursing Symposium 2005 New Orleans, LA 3/19-22 2005 MI EMS Expo Grand Rapids, MI 4/20-24 2005 Fire Rescue Med Las Vegas, NV 4/20-25 2005 Ambex England April 2005 FDIC West Los Angeles, CA June 2005 Clincon - Florida Emergency Medicine Foundation Orlando, fL 7/8-11 2005 IAFC- Fire Rescue Conference August 2005 National Council of State EMS Training Coordinators Sept 2005 National Association of EMS Educators (NAEMSE) San Antonio, TX Sept 2005 EMS Expo (National Conference) Oct 2005 American College of Emergency Physicians - Scientific Assembly 2004 (ACEP) Washington DC 9/25-27 2005 BTLS International Conference Sept 2005 Canada EMS Calgary, Alberta Oct 2005 Air Medical Transport Conference (AMTC) Oct 2005 New York Vital Signs New York Oct 2005 Prehospital Emergency Care and Crisis Intervention (Hafen/Karren) SLC, UT Oct 2005 Texas EMS Austin, TX 11/21-23 2005 Medica Nov 2005 SOMA Dec 2005 The last Executive notes I see was issued back in 2002, apparently you have also given up on your promise to keep the shareholders informed of production capacity and other items that do not warrant the expense of a press release. I have been away for awhile but I would like to get caught back up. Thanks Jack

TIAX Awarded $730M Contract by the Department of Defense to Develop Prototype Reusable Sternal IO Device Mr. Jacobs Was Pyng in the running for this contract? If so do you know why it was awarded to TIAX and not Pyng? If this does not violate one of Pyng's several patents, I am not sure what protection the patents provides as I thought that Pyng pretty much had the sternal site for IO sewn up tight by patent protections? But apparently not. I tried to send this question to you by private reply but you apparently have me on Ignore so it would not go through. Note: Excerpted PR for relavent details related to Pyng TIAX Awarded $730M Contract by the Department of Defense to Produce A Prototype Reusable Intraosseous Infusion Device October 27, 2004 (Cambridge, MA) - TIAX, a leading collaborative product and technology development firm, announced today that it has been awarded three Phase II contracts by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program. The contracts, totaling more than $2 million, will enable TIAX to continue its efforts in the development of three new technologies to assist soldiers in the battlefield; an intraosseous infusion device, a medical blood pack, and a wearable stress detection system. "We are honored to continue our partnership with the Department of Defense and delighted that our work on these projects will contribute to the safety and wellbeing of our armed forces," said Kenan Sahin, President of TIAX. "In addition to the role these technologies could play in helping our military, they may one day be used by first responders, emergency personnel, and critical staff to benefit the larger civilian population." The projects include: Reusable Intraosseous Infusion Device - Intraosseous infusion (an infusion directly in the marrow cavity of the human bone) is a rapid, reliable method of infusing critical resuscitation fluids into the vascular system when traditional IV cannot be administered. Under this $730,000 contract, TIAX will produce a prototype of a compact, portable device that enables quick vascular access through the sternum for soldiers wounded in battle situations. TIAX's design includes carriage of multiple needles so the system can be used several times and a driver/depth control system that simplifies usage in combat situations. The device may eventually be commercialized for use by emergency medical personnel in hospital trauma units

Mr. Jacobs Please update us on these developments presented in the July 2004 PR. "Pyng Medical Corp. has received notification that additional patents in the U.S.A. and Europe have been allowed on the F.A.S.T. 1 System." What is the basis of the new patents? "We are currently negotiating for contracts in Europe including a M.O.U. with INNOMED from Belgium who will distribute in Holland, Belgium and Luxemburg". Was the contract finalized? Has distribution begun? If so what type of volume do you expect over the next year? "We have also delivered F.A.S.T. 1 Systems to the British Special Forces, through Fenton Pharmaceuticals in England, for evaluation in Iraq." Have they made a decision to stock the FAST 1 in any medical kits? I look forward to your responses. Thanks Jack

Mr. Jacobs: I would like to propose that Pyng consider making at least one press release a month. Wish list for ideas to be included in the PR: Monthly Sales New State/County Approvals New Significant Customer (large regional EMT or Hospital group) New Country/Distributors New Patents Progress report on new engineering improvements on the FAST1 Progress on a reusable version of FAST1 New products under development/consideration A structured regular press release would provide some degree of regular communication which I think would provide more stability for the share price and if the news was progressively good some momentum. One reason I think the share price suffers is that news is received very irregularly mostly on a quarterly basis. I think that investors would react to monthly sales updates. I know that I have spent enough time with your financials to be able to glean alot from a sales figure. We have not received any indication of how the CoTCCC recommendation has affected Pyng's sales even though we have had almost two months of sales since the recommendation. I hope that you will consider a monthly PR. Regards Jack
