future efforts on the sleep disorder market. We believe that our sleep
products offer unique features that can improve the diagnosis and
treatment of obstructive sleep apnea. We recently filed an application
with the FDA for clearance to begin marketing the first of our sleep
products. With additional proprietary products in an advanced stage of
development and a roadmap of additional product development
opportunities based on our patented technology, we believe we have the
opportunity to build CHAD's position in this large and growing industry.
In addition, we will continue to actively pursue the sale of our
trans-filling assets."
