SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA – 26 May, 2008 – NuSep (ASX: NSP) wishes to advise the market that as a result of recent shareholder feedback the Board has decided to cancel the 14% Converting Note issue and withdraw the Prospectus dated 14 April 2008.

In light of the feedback, the Company has agreed to offer shareholders the right to acquire up to $5,000 of NuSep shares under a Share Purchase Plan (SPP) at an Offer price of 8¢ per share, a significant discount to the current share price.

The record date for determining eligible shareholders for the SPP will be Friday 5pm 30 May 2008. As a sign of their support for the Company, Directors will, subject to shareholder approval, take up their entitlement under the SPP.

The proceeds of the SPP will be used to:

  1. Expand sales with a view of achieving profitability on a monthly basis by: Expanding the sales and marketing of the precast gels, particularly in the US;

Growing the sales of the MF10 proteomics instrument; and Expanding NuSep's product range by introducing new and innovative products;

  1. Complete the development and achieve initial sales of the SpermSep CS10 by: Undertaking the next clinical trial of the SpermSep CS10 instrument in order to commercialise this unit in the IVF market; and

Completing the development and launch of the SpermSep CS10 instrument for sale in the ICSI market.

The Company will be contacting all of the investors who applied for the Converting Notes and will refund their application monies as soon as practicable.

The Board also wishes to advise that the General Meeting scheduled to occur on 30 May 2008 has been cancelled and a new General Meeting will occur on Friday 27 June 2008 to approve the issue of shares under the SPP. The SPP will close on Monday 30 June 2008 and it is expected that the securities will commence trading on the ASX on Monday 7 July 2008.
