LAS VEGAS, Jan. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Las Vegas-based MediCor Ltd. (OTC:MDCR) (BULLETIN BOARD: MDCR) and British breast implant manufacturer Biosil Limited and supplier Nagor Limited announced today that they have agreed to schedule the closing of MediCor's acquisition of Biosil and Nagor for the second quarter of 2006. According to MediCor's Chief Operating Officer, Jim J. McGhan, "The parties are actively working toward a successful close. We are also pleased by the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) report that the U.K. experienced an approximate 51% increase in breast implant procedures in 2005, a market in which Nagor has a significant market presence. In addition to the U.K., Nagor also has a solid base of highly qualified international distribution partners worldwide. Given the dynamic market growth and distributor network already in place, we are anxious to begin building upon the current Biosil and Nagor employee bases and expanding operations in the Scotland, England and the Isle of Man facilities to meet future demand." MediCor was founded by Chairman of the Board Donald K. McGhan, the pioneer of the modern day breast implant industry. The Company acquires, develops, manufactures and markets products for medical specialties in aesthetic, plastic and reconstructive surgery and dermatology markets. Products include surgically implantable prostheses for aesthetic, plastic and reconstructive surgery and scar management products. Its products are sold worldwide to hospitals, surgery centers and physicians through various distributors and direct sales personnel. MediCor's strategy is to be the leading integrator of selected international medical device markets, technologies and corporations. To achieve this strategy, MediCor intends to build upon and expand its business lines, primarily in the aesthetic, plastic and reconstructive surgery and dermatology markets. MediCor intends to accomplish this growth through the expansion of existing product lines and offerings and through the acquisition of companies and other assets, including intellectual property rights or distribution rights.
