The Quigley Corporation Updates and Amends By-Laws and Rights Agreement
Date:8/18/2009

DOYLESTOWN, Pa., Aug. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Quigley Corporation "The Company" (Nasdaq: QGLY), www.quigleyco.com, today announced that its Board of Directors has approved updating and amending its By-laws and Rights Agreement.

The By-laws of the Company were amended and restated to reflect accepted best practices, including updates with respect to Nevada corporate law and to provide advance notice procedures for stockholder nominations for directors and stockholder proposals.

The amendment to the Rights Agreement is comprised of two primary revisions. The first revision updates and broadens the Rights Agreement's definition of "Beneficial Ownership" by providing for the definition to capture derivative instruments. The second revision removes a provision which excluded Mr. Guy J. Quigley, the former Chairman of the Company, who was not reelected to the Board by stockholders in 2009, from the definition of "Acquiring Person". Mr. Quigley voluntarily resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company in June 2009. The amended Rights Agreement permits Mr. Quigley to continue to own 3,373,764 shares of common stock, plus any shares he might acquire by exercise of previously issued stock options, without triggering the rights pursuant to the Rights Agreement.

For more information concerning the provisions contained in the By-laws and the Rights Agreement, please see the Company's Current Report on Form 8 K regarding this matter.
