On April 15, 2006, unauthorized information was posted by an employee on a Bodisen-owned website that contained two false news pieces stating that (1) the company's CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board.  and Chairman Karen Qiong Wang was seriously ill A patient is seriously ill when his or her illness is of such severity that there is cause for immediate concern but there is no imminent danger to life. See also very seriously ill.  and resigning from her position and (2) that road construction in front of the company's older facility would seriously impact the company's 2006 revenue and earnings guidance. The company has taken action to prevent unauthorized information from being disseminated in the future.

Subsequently, this erroneous information was used by an equity analyst in a report issued on the company.

Following the posting of this erroneous information, the company has disclosed the following factual statements:

--On April 18, 2006, the company stated that CEO and Chairman Karen Qiong Wang was taking temporary sick leave to undergo a routine medical check-up procedure, following surgery that was performed at the end of 2005. Subsequently and as stated in a news release issued on April 26, 2006, Ms. Wang has returned to her duty after a routine medical check up. At no time preceding or during her temporary medical leave was there any discussion of Ms. Wang resigning from her position. Ms. Wang is the CEO and Chairman of Bodisen Biotech, Inc.

--On April 18, 2006, the company issued a news release stating that road construction had begun in front of the main entrance to the company's older production facility and was expected to last for several months. The company also stated that construction was not expected to affect Bodisen's product inventory and shipment operations and reaffirmed its 2006 sales and earnings guidance. Again, the company expects no material impact to its financial performance as a result of the current road construction.

The erroneous information has been removed from the website. Bodisen's official website is www.bodisen.com, which contains the latest information on the company.
