NanoVibronix, Inc., (NASDAQ: NAOV) (the “Company”), a medical
device company that produces the UroShield®, PainShield® and
WoundShield® Surface Acoustic Wave (“SAW”) Portable Ultrasonic
Therapeutic Devices, today announced it has signed a non-binding
term sheet for a license and supply agreement with APOGEPHA
Arzneimittel GmbH (“APOGEPHA”), a German pharmaceutical company,
which specializes in the development, marketing, sales and
distribution of urology products and services. Pursuant to the term
sheet, the Company and APOHEPHA intend to enter into a definitive
agreement, pursuant to which, APOHEPHA will distribute UroShield
throughout Europe.

“We are thrilled to be taking the next step in adding APOGEPHA as a
distributor of UroShield in Europe. APOGEPHA is a recognized leader
in the field of urology and is committed to providing modalities
for patients with urological conditions. Expanding distribution
with leading distributors is a key driver to accelerating sales,
and with this potential partnership, we have the potential to
harness the strength of APOGEPHA’s large sales and marketing team
to promote and sell UroShield in Germany.”
Dr. Dirk Pamperin, Chairman of the Management Board of APOGEPHA,
commented, “At APOGEPHA, we are committed to offering a wide range

disorders. After completing our own comprehensive market evaluation
of UroShield, we are convinced that UroShield will have the ability
to support patients with long-term catheters by significantly
reducing their catheter-associated urinary tract infections.”

prevent bacterial colonization and biofilm on indwelling urinary
catheters and increase antibiotic efficacy, ultimately reducing the
incidence of catheter-associated urinary tract infections
("CAUTI"). UroShield is also intended to decrease pain and
discomfort associated with urinary catheter use.
