on technology, based upon baculovirus and insect cell technology.

In response to the current health emergency declared by the Department of Health and Human Services, PSC is developing a vaccine for the potential pandemic swine flu (PanBlok(R)) and expects to be manufacturing the vaccine within six weeks and to be able to produce 20,000 to 30,000 doses per week.

The Company's lead product is FluBlok(R), a seasonal recombinant trivalent influenza vaccine, consisting of influenza hemagglutin (HA) proteins. FluBlok is manufactured without the use of eggs, is highly purified and therefore does not require the use of thimerosal or antibiotics and is low in endotoxins. PSC filed a Biologics License Application for FluBlok with the FDA in April 2008 that was accepted for filing in June 2008 and received "Fast Track" designation in July, 2008. PSC anticipates that FluBlok will be approved in time for the 2009/2010 influenza season.
