Unique Pizza and Subs Corporation (Pink Sheets: UPZS - http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=UPZS.PK ) Unique Pizza and Subs Corporation, a Delaware Corporation, projects its expansion into the Norfolk/Chesapeake Virginia and northeastern North Carolina market to consist of 26 (twenty-six) locations open by the end of 2007, with total sales of $11,129,000. This will be accomplished through the initial franchisees' commitment to open 5 (five) new stores in the rapidly growing market, combined with an aggressive program to convert 21 (twenty-one) existing pizza restaurants in the region into Unique Pizza and Subs over the next 18 months. The initial franchise is owned by four local residents, Steve and Debbie Hamm and Rick and Rayanne Trader, who are eager to have their first of five locations open by August 2006.

James Vowler, President and CEO of Unique Pizza and Subs, stated, ''Our franchisees reflect the attitude of this market; young, ambitious and professional. The Eagleton 4, as we have come to know them, were loyal out-of-state customers before they became franchisees. I couldn't be more excited to have the Eagleton 4 on board with us. During their many visits to the Pittsburgh area they had to eat (in their words) 'the best pizza in the world,' in fact they loved the pizza so much they decided to open five franchises in their home state of North Carolina. Having the largest U.S. naval base in the world makes this market very appealing to us and we plan on working with the Navy to set up a program that will help finance any interested servicemen to be the owner of his/her own Unique Pizza and Subs franchise. With the expansion of twenty-six new franchises in the North Carolina and Virginia market it is another strong indication to our loyal shareholders how committed we are towards national expansion.''

Unique Pizza and Subs has recently come out with significant and very positive corporate developments, causing a market frenzy. They continue to sign multiple franchise contracts in new markets because of their cutting edge business model that provides franchisees with the assistance they need to: increase sales, lower marketing costs, strengthen their purchasing power and save five percent labor cost due to their system-wide customer response center. This enables their franchisees to continually exceed the customer's expectations while generating much higher profits than it's competitors.

Unique Pizza and Subs is well positioned for strong growth throughout the U.S. and they anticipate many significant announcements over the next few months to support that contention. This will allow them to reach strategic and financial milestones that will provide reassurance for shareholders and brokers, while propelling serious interest from potential investors. This strategy is designed to make Unique Pizza and Subs one of the largest pizza franchises in the U.S. within the next five years. Other new territories scheduled for opening this summer are: Atlanta, GA; Austin, TX; Boston, MA; Milwaukee, WI; and Pittsburgh, PA.

Cardima, Inc. (OTCBB: CRDM - http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=CRDM.OB ) Cardima, Inc. announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) marketing clearance for the new Cardima Ablation System, which ablates cardiac tissue during heart surgery using radio frequency (RF) energy. This system is expected to be used primarily by surgeons performing cardiac surgery using standard hospital laparoscopic as well as thorascopic techniques.

The Cardima Ablation System uses three components: commercially available surgical radio frequency generators; the new Cardima Surgical Ablation Probe with a linear array of multi-electrodes and adjacent thermocouples using the core technology similar to the Company's REVELATION series ablation micro-catheters; and a novel energy management device called the INTELLITEMP , which uses a temperature feedback feature to apply RF energy to single or multiple electrodes on the probe simultaneously. The new surgical ablation probe includes a specially designed stabilizer suction device with an illuminated tip for better visibility, which is clipped to the electrode array to maintain electrode-tissue contact during hands free ablation.

"I am pleased to see the long development for the Cardima Ablation System come to a successful completion," stated Gabriel Vegh, chief executive officer of Cardima. "The new Cardima Surgical Ablation Probe has the potential to effectively compete with devices on the market designed to replicate the highly successful surgical Maze procedure. We are evaluating potential marketing and distribution strategies for the Cardima Ablation System."

PlanetLink Communications Inc. (OTCBB: PLKC - http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=PLKC.OB ) PlanetLink Communications Inc., a provider of GPS satellite-based products and services, announced that following our receipt of Preferred Vendor Status and the subsequent presentation at the Two Men and a Truck Annual Convention for all the national franchisees, we have received signed contracts from the first five locations the during the month of May.

The franchise locations in Fraser, Michigan, Ft. Myers, Florida, Glen Mills, Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Greenville, Wisconsin represent a total vehicle opportunity of 57 trucks. PlanetTRAKS is also conducting needs assessments, ROI evaluations and demos with several other franchise locations at this time.

PlanetTRAKS was granted ''Preferred Vendor'' status prior to the TMT annual convention in April 2006. Since the convention, many of the TMT franchise operators have expressed interest in utilizing TransTRAK and are conducting serious in-depth analysis of the cost/benefit reality associated to GPS vehicle monitoring.

Larry Lapaglia, Director of Agent Programs for PlanetTRAKS, stated that, ''The interest level is very high with many of the franchisees. In the past, they would discount the addition of GPS vehicle monitoring as just another operating expense. Now, those same franchisees are either relaying their experience of operating expense reduction benefits using TransTRAK or expressing a willingness to install TransTRAK in some of their trucks. The proof is in the pudding. As these franchise operators realize the benefits of using TransTRAK, they are becoming our sales voices.''

PlanetTRAKS Chief Executive Officer M. Dewey Bain commented, ''I know it has been long time in the making. Now we are seeing many of our efforts beginning to bear fruit at the same time and we expect to see rapid growth in the upcoming quarters. What we have seen so far with the steady sales increase is going to increase in intensity.''
