November 20 - Perf Go Green Provides Progress Report On Business Initiatives

Advancing Growth Plans Through New Placements and Products; Re-orders Coming in From Retailers

Perf Go Green Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: PGOG | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) ("Perf Go Green") (www.perfgogreen.com), a marketer and distributor of biodegradable plastics, provided its second quarterly update on the company's business initiatives.

"Over the past three months, we've made solid progress in introducing Perf Go Green to businesses and retailers across the U.S.," said Chairman and CEO Tony Tracy. "Although we're still in our early stages as a company, our products are already available online (Amazon.com and drugstore.com) and in stores that have more than 18,000 retail outlets throughout the country. These include two leading pharmacy chains (Walgreens and CVS), hardware and office supply chains (OfficeMax, Do it Best, Orgill, and United Hardware), supermarkets (Bashas', Hy-Vee, and Meijers), and natural foods stores (Sprouts Farmers Market). In addition, we've received vendor approvals from retailers with another 23,000 outlets, and are working to obtain purchase orders and ship merchandise as quickly as possible.

"As the first biodegradable plastic product to be mass marketed, Perf Go Green is getting a great reception from all sectors - businesses, retailers, consumers, municipalities and non-profit organizations. We booked our first sale in May 2008, and in our last fiscal quarter we recorded quarterly revenues in the amount of $425,000. All of our target markets are proving eager to help protect the earth by selling or using products that offer a convenient, cost-effective way to reduce their environmental footprint. The fact that we're already receiving re-orders from a number of the retailers we work with is especially telling. We're proud that Perf Go Green has positioned itself as a leader in the nation's 'go green' movement, which some project to become a $500 billion market in 2009."

Over the past three months, Perf Go Green has:

* Rolled out our 13-gallon tall kitchen trash bags and 30-gallon lawn & leaf bags nationwide at two leading pharmacy chains and has regularly been receiving re-orders from one of the chains.

* Added nearly 1,000 retail stores nationwide through a new distribution partnership with OfficeMax Incorporated, a top provider of office products and services. Perf Go Green's 13-, 30- and 39-gallon bags became available on all OfficeMax's shelves in November.

* Broadened our initial product offering to include commercial and custom-sized bags, plastic drop cloths and pet products. We're now shipping a full array of items in seven different product categories. We are implementing our EDI system with EDI-compliant customers, which will be fully integrated with our back-office and sales and marketing functions.

* Been selected to supply biodegradable plastic trash bags under a co-branding program at a major pharmacy chain. We're currently selling Perf Go Green product in the chain and our arrangement will evolve into a co-branded label in 2009, which we expect to add to its appeal.

* Received our first order for office trash bags from a securities firm in New York City, whose professional staff encompasses approximately 300 employees, all of whose desk trash cans will be fitted with Perf Go Green bags.

* Added Diversified Brands to our sales and marketing team. Diversified, whose management team has a combined total of more than 80 years of experience and a wide network of relationships, began introducing Perf Go Green products to Canadian retailers in November.

* Expanded our business development team through a partnership with GEM Business Development. An expert in the field of consumer packaged goods, GEM is tasked with broadening retail and consumer awareness of Perf Go Green and accelerating our go-to-market approach.

* Continues to enjoy a strong relationship with our manufacturer, Spectrum Plastics, a leader in the field of sustainable bags and packaging products. We are working with Spectrum to create new and better plastic products and expect to launch new products in 2009. First in line are fresh produce bags, which we'll introduce in January.

* Obtained extensive positive media coverage, including magazine articles in Family Circle, Parenting, O at Home, and, most recently, Redbook, that are helping drive consumer awareness of Perf Go Green's products. We've also been featured on Fox Business News, Lifetime Television's The Balancing Act and HGTV's Designing Spaces: Think Green.

* Increased international awareness of our products and mission through the German Equity Forum in Frankfurt in November. Perf Go Green's Chief Operating Officer was a featured speaker at the Alternative Energies panel discussion, in which companies and financial market participants from all over the world with an interest in green initiatives participated.

* Become the title sponsor for the Go Green expo at the LA Convention Center in January 2009, which will feature the latest eco-friendly products and services people can use to lead a greener life.

Tracy concluded, "The need to reduce plastic waste gets more urgent every day. We've been responding to that need - and, at the same time, establishing the basic building blocks for Perf Go Green's growth - by getting into as many retail doors as possible as well as introducing Perf Go Green with much success to businesses, government agencies and non-profit organizations. In the coming months, we plan to accelerate our distribution and educate more people about our products and their positive impact on the environment. We'll also expand our product offering, giving people even more opportunities to go green and protect the planet."

Perf Go Green's corporate name reflects its "Go Green" mission to develop, market and distribute biodegradable plastic products as a practical and viable solution to eliminating plastic waste from the world environment. Founded in November 2007, Perf Go Green premiered at the March 2008 International Home and Housewares Show in Chicago, where its products were honored for their design quality and innovation. According to Landor Associate, the "go green movement" is poised to become a $500 billion market by 2009.

November 19 - Medivisor, Inc. Reaches Marketing Agreement for NICLite , a Smoking Alternative Drink

Medivisor, Inc. (OTC: MVSR), developer of next-generation focus driven marketing tools, sales strategies, and distribution platforms, announced that it has entered into an agreement with The Curry Group, agent for Nico Worldwide Inc., for the sale and marketing of NICLite . NICLite is an alcohol-free Smoking Alternative Drink that is registered with the FDA as a Homeopathic Nicotinum Complex Formula.

Over 2.5 billion people (close to half the world's population) smoke cigarettes. This includes an astounding 48.2 million Americans. Throughout the world, legislation is demanding a ban on smoking. As confirmed in the New England Journal of Medicine, nicotine is a naturally occurring compound. It is found in common foods and vegetables such as potatoes, tomatoes, cauliflower, eggplant, chili peppers, and some types of tea. The World Health Organization has estimated that tobacco smoke contains over 4,000 chemicals, of which nicotine is just one. In addition to tar, there is also carbon monoxide (found in car exhaust fumes), ammonia (found in floor cleaner) and arsenic (found in rat poison). At least 43 of the chemicals in tobacco smoke are known to cause cancers of the lung, throat, mouth, bladder and kidneys. Tobacco smoke also contributes to a number of other cancers.

NICLite contains a purified organic nicotine molecule in a Complex Homeopathic Formula, which will go into equal suspension in 8 ounces of pharmaceutical grade water. Nico Worldwide Inc. developed NICLite as a smoking alternative for when people can't smoke, shouldn't smoke or choose not to smoke, and to reduce the craving for tobacco.

"With an increasing number of places and countries banning smoking, NICLite offers people a real alternative, and the ability to live life smoke free," stated Dino Luzzi, president of Medivisor, Inc. "The potential marketplace for this product is almost limitless."

SMAS News:

November 20 - Somatic Systems, Inc. Registered With the Department of Defense Contractor Registry

Somatic Systems, Inc. (OTC: SMAS | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) announced that it has been registered with the United States Government's Central Contractor Registration (CCR) as a healthcare service, and assigned its own commercial identification code by the United States Department of Defense. The CCR registers all contractors for the Department of Defense, and CCR registration is a critical requirement for any vendor to do business with the Department of Defense.

The Registration is a significant stage in the work for Somatic Systems to become fully approved providers for the military and Veterans Affairs, enabling Clinical Somatics treatment of all active and retired military personnel, family, dependents, and survivors to be paid for by the military.

The Department of Defense will only conduct business with vendors registered in the CCR. Furthermore, the CCR in turn serves as a registry if a vendor wishes to provide services to the Federal government, enabling Somatic Systems to seek other government contracts and opportunities.

The CCR is a centralized, single point of entry for the Department of Defense, and disseminates contractor data to all federal agencies in service of government ventures. The CCR shares its information with the SBA and several electronic business systems. Additionally, portions of the CCR database are open to the public, and the CCR can be used by both Government and corporate buyers to identify potential business vendors and service providers. The CCR also securely provides the military and federal government agencies with the vendor's data relevant to procurement and payment.

Somatic Systems' Registration by the Department of Defense and Federal Government became effective midday yesterday.

AAFES Registration

Earlier this week, Somatic Systems was also listed with the Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES), an agency of the Department of Defense charged with providing high quality products and services affordably. Listing with AAFES means that when there is a requirement for the categories of health care services that Somatic Systems provides, AAFES will find Somatic Systems and can contact them. The AAFES operates more than 3,000 facilities worldwide, in more than 30 countries, five U.S. territories and 49 states; AAFES revenues last year totaled $9.7 billion.

The Military Chronic Pain Crisis Somatic Systems has been working to obtain contracts and its proprietary Clinical Somatics pain-care services for US military hospitals and the Veterans Administration. In addition to seeking in-house arrangements at bases and facilities, the company also announced that it is preparing to rollout multiple clinics at military base locations throughout the US, to provide easy access to Clinical Somatics services at a time when the US military is strongly seeking satisfactory pain treatment solutions such as Clinical Somatics -- and following a wave of legislation including the Military Pain Care Act of 2008, which requires the Department of Defense, Veterans Affairs, and Health and Human Services and the Surgeon General of the United States to implement and maintain a pain care initiative in all military health care facilities and for all active and retired military personnel, dependents, and survivors.

Nearly 26 million living Americans have served in the military, and pain is the most common symptom and cause of disability amongst veterans, with more than 40% of returning service members reporting musculoskeletal pain-related problems and symptoms. Additionally, long-term sufferers as well as family members and other dependents of all ages also face pain and other musculoskeletal problems; and this population totals over 70 million people, served by the Veterans Administration. In the face of this, military officials, medical authorities, and government officials have reported frustration that the military does not yet have a satisfactory pain care program in place.

"We are very excited by this accomplishment," stated Somatic Systems CEO Steven Aronstein. "Only a few weeks after completing our month of discussions with military officials about providing our much needed Clinical Somatics pain-care services, we are moving forward quickly towards our goal of helping the men and women and families in every US military hospital and VA health facility across the nation."
