On June 21, 2007, and in connection with the previously-announced investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”), NeuroMetrix, Inc. (“NeuroMetrix” or the “Company”) received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts. We understand that the DOJ is investigating various aspects of the Company’s sales and marketing practices respecting the NC-stat System.  NeuroMetrix is cooperating with the DOJ investigation.  We cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the DOJ investigation.   We are unable to determine when this matter will be resolved, whether any additional areas of inquiry will be opened, or any outcome of this matter.  Any negative findings in this matter could result in fines, penalties, or program exclusions, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
