Oncologix Tech, Inc. Revises February 27, 2009 Press Release

GRAND RAPIDS, MI--(Marketwire - April 06, 2009) - Oncologix Tech Inc. (PINKSHEETS: OCLG) announces revision to its press release dated February 27, 2009. “In our press release of February 27, 2009, we referred to ‘a denial by the U.S. Patent Office of key claims in the patent application of the University of Maryland, Baltimore covering the technology that had been licensed to us.’ We have been advised that the proper term for the Patent Office action is ‘rejection’ and not ‘denial’ and that this statement has been interpreted by some as meaning that the patent application was denied in its entirety. Our statement was intended to refer to particular claims in the patent application that were critical to IUT in connection with the previously announced technology transfer agreement and was made to explain the changes in the terms of the IUT transaction from those previously announced. We have been further advised that, in fact, that rejection is being contested by the University of Maryland, Baltimore and that the patent application remains actively pending in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, and has not been denied. Furthermore, there appears to be some concern that the February 27, 2009 press release may have inadvertently suggested that the University of Maryland, Baltimore’s technology previously licensed by Oncologix was not commercially viable. In fact, Oncologix had no intention or interest in making any such suggestion. The comments were made solely for the purpose of advising our shareholders and other interested parties of the future plans of IUT Medical, Gmbh, of which we now own a 10% equity interest. We regard any misinterpretation of our release as unfortunate and hope that this explanation will put those misinterpretations to rest.”
