UnderSea Recovery Corporation Upgrades to "OTC Pink Current Information" Status

UnderSea Recovery Corporation ("UnderSea") (Pink Sheets:UNDR) is pleased to announce that its reporting status has been upgraded to "Current Information" on the OTC Pink Market, the highest level of the OTC Pink Market.

As a result, the Stop Sign and "No Information" caveats from our trading symbol have been removed and replaced with the "Current Information" designation and symbol.

UnderSea was able to achieve this upgrade by posting a detailed disclosure document (our Initial Information and Disclosure Statement), together with financial statements for the past three years and an Attorney Letter with respect to Adequate Current Information, on the OTC Disclosure and News Service in compliance with the OTC Markets Group's rigorous "Guidelines for Publishing Adequate Current Information."

One indication of the trading benefits and market value typically associated with such an upgrade is documented in a comparison of "Current Information" companies with "No Information" companies, in terms of annual trading volume. Last year, the average trading volume for a "Current Information" security was 73 times greater than the average volume for a "No Information" security ($45,000,000 as compared with $617,000).

In making this announcement, Herbert C. Leeming, UnderSea's CEO, stated: "We are truly delighted with our upgraded reporting status and the greater transparency which will result from this achievement. We are fully confident that our new status will enhance investor confidence in UnderSea and enable us to more readily access institutional and individual sources of capital and expand our stockholder base. We also plan to move forward with registering with the SEC later this year."
