Ondine Completes Sale of Dental Business
Ondine to Focus on MRSA Product, MRSAid(TM)
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - June 8, 2009) - Ondine Biopharma Corporation (the "Company" or
"Ondine") (TSX:OBP)(AIM:OBP), a medical technology company developing photodisinfection based products, today
announced the Company has closed the sale of its Dental Healthcare Business to Periowave Dental Technologies,
Inc. ("PDT", formerly JS Dental Technologies, Inc.).
"The sale of the Dental Healthcare Business is a significant milestone for Ondine, enabling us to focus our
attention and resources on the development of new products and applications of our platform technology,
photodynamic disinfection. We have proven that the Ondine team can successfully develop a new technology, and
bring it out of the labs and into the marketplace. We have acquired invaluable knowledge and experience,
clinical/regulatory expertise, and a quality management system that not only places us as the global leader in
photodynamic disinfection, but will also assist us with future product development initiatives.", stated
Carolyn Cross, Ondine's Chairman & CEO. "In addition to developing next generation technologies for the dental
market in support of PDT, Ondine plans to focus on the development and commercialization of MRSAid(TM), its non-
antibiotic nasal decolonization system intended to reduce the rate of MRSA infections in hospitals and nursing
homes. MRSAid(TM), which is approved in Canada and Europe, is the first of a number of products Ondine intends
to introduce addressing the $10 billion hospital acquired infection market."

of the Company's shareholders on May 19, 2009, and the signing of the definitive agreement on June 5, 2009.
Under the terms of the transaction, Ondine and PDT will collaborate on the continued development and
