Presentation of HeartWare Clinical Results
Date:4/15/2008

ge duration of support across this patient group exceeds 220 days per patient. The cumulative period of support across the group exceeds 7,000 days or approximately 19 years. Eight of the patients have been supported by the HeartWare system for periods exceeding 12 months, including one patient who has been supported for more than 500 days.

HeartWare plans to commence a U.S. trial in the middle of 2008. In the U.S. alone more than 5 million patients suffer from heart failure and fewer than 3,000 donor hearts become available each year.

About HeartWare

HeartWare develops and manufactures miniaturized implantable heart pumps, or Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs), designed to treat patients suffering from advanced heart failure. The Company is developing the industry's smallest and least invasive pumps, which it believes will be the key to unlocking the potential of a large and underserved market. The HeartWare(R) LVAD is a full-output pump designed to be implanted in the chest, avoiding the abdominal surgery generally required to implant competing devices. The device is currently the subject of an international clinical trial involving five investigational centres in Europe and Australia.
