WNDM Signs Multi-Year Channel Partner Agreement; $9M Revenue Target in 2012

FORT WORTH, Texas, April 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Wound Management Technologies, Inc., (OTCQB l WNDM | WNDM.PK) a leader in advanced wound care solutions, today announced the execution of a multi-Year Exclusive Channel Partner Agreement for CellerateRX® Powder in North America with Juventas, LLC, an affiliate of Biomet Texas, Ltd., headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas to market and sell CellerateRX® Activated Collagen powder products to its customers in North America.  The multi-year agreement provides for Juventas to progressively increase yearly sales levels, with 2012's minimum sales of CellerateRX® powder set at $9 million in order for Juventas to retain such exclusive rights.

According to Scott Haire, CEO and Chairman of Wound Management Technologies, "This strategic agreement represents an important financial milestone for the Company."  Deborah Jenkins Hutchinson, President added, "We are pleased to work with Juventas, a key distributor of other Biomet products. This agreement is a direct result of our strategic plan to seek out channel partners to distribute our products in addition to our own sales team.  The agreement will allow Wound Management to rapidly penetrate a sales channel where our partner has the dominant relationship against the major competitors."

Bryant Gaines, Juventas CEO noted, "We are excited to incorporate CellerateRX® powder within our extensive network, both in operating rooms, hospitals and in the field.  Our field testing showed it to be a superior wound care product compared to other products in the market.  We are rapidly ramping sales training and promotion and believe that this will be a key product for our group's success."

CellerateRX® Activated Collagen is the Differentiator

CellerateRX®'s Activated Collagen™ (approximately 1/100th the size of native collagen) delivers the essential benefits of collagen to a wound immediately, where other forms of native, intact collagen in commercially available products require time for the body to break down.  In people with compromised health or circulation, the difference in wound healing can be significant.

CellerateRX® is FDA cleared for all wound types except for 3rd degree burns and is available in both powder and gel form.   In addition to being used in healthcare settings throughout the country, CellerateRX® is easily applied by patients by themselves at home.  CellerateRX® is safe, non-toxic, and easy to use. More information can be found on the product's website:  www.CellerateRX.com.
