TORONTO, March 28 /PRNewswire/ - Biosign Technologies ("Biosign") and DynamiCARE AG have replaced their exclusive master distribution agreement announced on July 2, 2010 with a similar but non-exclusive distribution agreement. Under the revised agreement, DynamiCARE will have nonexclusive distribution rights to resell Biosign products in Germany, France, Switzerland, and Austria and will not be required to pay the $2.5million milestone payment or achieve the volume commitments that were required in the previous agreement to maintain exclusivity. This modification to the DynamiCARE agreement enables Biosign to move forward with other multinational distribution partners in Europe.
DynamiCARE President Patrick Dressler stated: "We were very impressed with the performance and ease of use of the UFIT(R) TEN-20 blood pressure & blood glucose meter that was demonstrated to us by Biosign since June 2010 and to the Annual Meeting of the European Medical Device Distributors in December 2010. Upon further negotiations with Biosign, we concluded that our financial resources would be better used marketing this remarkable product rather than expending them on exclusivity payments. We expect UFIT to have a large impact on the European chronic disease management industry in the coming months and we look forward to a fruitful business relationship with Biosign."
