Forward-looking Statements

This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on the current intent and expectations of the management of BioMimetic. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected costs, plans and objectives of management for future operations that are not historical facts. The words “may,” “continue,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “will,” “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “optimistic” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. There are many important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements, including that: (i) despite the Company’s future marketing and commercialization efforts, Augment may not achieve broad market acceptance in Australia or Canada; (ii) the Company may be unable to provide the information requested in the FDA’s post-panel response letter, or any information provided may be insufficient, and (iii) despite other regulatory approvals of Augment, the FDA Advisory Panel’s votes in favor of Augment, or any further information provided by the Company in answering the post-panel response letter, the FDA may not approve Augment’s Pre-Marketing Application, may require additional clinical and/or non-clinical studies to approve Augment, or may impose labeling restrictions on any approval of Augment that would significantly reduce Augment’s potential market. Further, BioMimetic’s actual results and the timing and outcome of events may differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements because of risks associated with the marketing of BioMimetic’s products, the approval process for and the commercialization of its product candidates, preclinical and clinical development activities, risks relating to potential securities claims, product liability claims, other litigation or claims or regulatory inquiries that have been and may be brought against BioMimetic and its officers and directors, regulatory oversight, and other risks detailed in BioMimetic’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Except as required by law, BioMimetic undertakes no responsibility for updating the information contained in this press release beyond the published date, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, and has no policy of doing so. In addition, BioMimetic undertakes no responsibility for changes made to this document by wire services or Internet services.
