<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>Chyten Educational Services Leads the Way in Providing Students with        New Strategies Necessary to Excel on ACT</em></strong></p>
<p>BOSTON&#8211;(April 4, 2011)&#8211;<a href="http://www.chyten.com" target="_blank">Chyten Educational Services</a>, a leading provider of tutoring and test        preparation services, today announced the release of its newest book, <em>Mastering        the ACT, A Comprehensive Workbook to Maximize Scores on the ACT English,        Math, Reading, Science and Essay</em>. Founder/CEO Neil Chyten worked        with more than a dozen educational experts to identify the most        effective strategies to help students maximize their test scores. <em>Mastering        the ACT </em>prioritizes test-taking strategies and provides students the        tools they need to achieve ACT success.</p>
<p>“Virtually every company in the country teaches that the ACT is not a        strategic test but we take the exact opposite approach,” said Chyten.        “After identifying consistencies that occur in every ACT test, we        devised strategies that allow our students to master all types of ACT        questions. We look at every academic challenge from a strategies-first        perspective, and this latest book really echoes our philosophy of        educational excellence and solidifies our position as the leader of ACT        preparation.”</p>
<p>Chyten timed the release with college admissions testing season as high        school students will take the ACT in April and June. <em>Mastering the ACT</em> is available to Chyten students at any of the 40 Chyten Educational        Centers located across the country. Chyten’s latest educational resource        is organized by sections of the ACT and provides a comprehensive look at        each subject area, including English, Math, Science and Writing. Each        section in <em>Mastering the ACT </em>contains sample questions, passages        or math problems and allows test takers to fully experience the ACT        prior to actually taking the exam.</p>
<p>“We have long been at the forefront of ACT preparation and technology        and by compiling our strategies and techniques into one comprehensive        manual, we believe we can help students really excel on the ACT,” said        Chyten Educational Services Founder/CEO Neil Chyten. “When we began this        process, we were surprised by the lack of strategic approaches offered        by other books on the market. <em>Mastering the ACT </em>is the first book        that not only identifies, but also prioritizes, the most effective        strategies. The ACT is often considered an achievement test, an exam        that assesses developed skill or knowledge, but students and parents        should know that ACT preparation is key to test-taking success.”</p>
<p><em>Mastering the ACT</em> is Neil Chyten’s third book. Chyten is also the        author of <em>RANDD, Reading and Study Skills</em> and <em>Mastering the SAT</em>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.chyten.com" target="_blank"><strong>Chyten Educational Services</strong></a> has helped over 25,000 families        achieve academic success. By hiring the nation’s most experienced tutors        (each of whom has earned at least a Master’s Degree) and developing        proprietary, reading and study-skills-based strategies that enable        students to earn the best academic grades and test scores, Chyten        continues its remarkable tradition of educating tomorrow’s future        leaders. Services offered include: standardized test preparation,        subject tutoring, application essay writing, educational psychological        testing and college admission programs. Chyten Educational Services        provides its exceptional services at 40 locations across the country.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Anonymous donation provides education and training opportunities to hundreds of nurses</strong></p>
<p>BOSTON — September 15, 2010 — <a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org" target="_blank">Hebrew SeniorLife</a> (HSL) today announced a $2 million gift from an anonymous donor to support the development of the Hebrew SeniorLife Geriatric Nursing Education Center.</p>
<p>With this new Center, HSL is even better equipped to confront the nation’s urgent nursing shortage by offering new nursing internship and nursing assistant specialty programs. HSL, a Harvard Medical School affiliate, envisions the Center as a place for its nurses – including certified nursing assistants (CNAs), licensed practical nurses (LPNs) and registered nurses (RNs) – to enhance their education and training while receiving mentoring support from doctors and other experienced nurses.</p>
<p>“The revolutionary programs and services we develop to support our nation’s seniors are only as effective as the men and women who implement them,” said Len Fishman, CEO of Hebrew SeniorLife. “We’re grateful to our anonymous donor for these resources to train our employees. Hebrew SeniorLife’s new Geriatric Nursing Education Center will represent the gold standard in nursing professional development.”</p>
<p>HSL’s new nurse internship program will be a 10-week training course, with classroom and preceptor experience for newly graduated LPNs and RNs. The goal of this program is to assist new HSL nurses in their transition from school to a clinical setting. The program’s emphasis will be on understanding HSL’s in-house medical resources, expanding critical thinking and fostering an environment that further develops the knowledge base of new nurses. HSL also plans to expand its programming to offer a nursing assistant specialty certification which will provide CNAs with leadership training and updates on advances in geriatric care.</p>
<p>The new Center will include the previously established Burton and Gloria Rose Career Development Program. The Burton and Gloria Rose Career Development Program enables CNAs who work for HSL to take the necessary coursework, through Massachusetts Bay Community College, to become LPNs. HSL pays for all coursework and books, with reading and math education provided through Jewish Vocational Service. In addition, HSL compensates students for much of the time spent in classes, which are offered offsite. In return for the opportunity, each participant commits to work as a nurse at HSL for three years after graduating.</p>
<p>“Our new Geriatric Nursing Education Center is an unbelievable opportunity for our organization and helps ensure we can continue to offer programs that make a meaningful difference in the lives of our nurses and certified nursing assistants,” said Tammy Retalic, MS, RN, director of Professional Development at Hebrew SeniorLife. “A Center focused exclusively on nursing education and career advancement programs allows us to actively create programs to support staff needs and remain at the forefront of nursing education and training.”</p>
<p><strong>About Hebrew SeniorLife</strong></p>
<p>Founded in 1903, Hebrew SeniorLife, an affiliate of Harvard Medical School, is a non-sectarian, nonprofit organization devoted to innovative research, health care, education and housing that improves the lives of seniors. For more information, visit www.hebrewseniorlife.org.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">BOSTON, MASS. — December 28, 2010 —<a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org" target="_blank"> Hebrew SeniorLife</a> (HSL) today announced the launch of its <a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/" target="_blank">enhanced website</a> that allows visitors to fully explore the wide spectrum of senior health-care and housing services the organization offers. Featuring an in-depth <a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/hsl-resources-glossary" target="_blank">HSL health-care services guide</a>, a <a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/hsl-resources-encyclopedia" target="_blank">glossary</a> of health-care terms, an<a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/housing" target="_blank"> encyclopedia</a> of common senior health conditions, chat capabilities, listening  features and more, the site provides a variety of resources for seniors  and their families from the largest provider of senior health care,  housing, research and teaching in New England.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">“Seniors and their families are often at a loss as to where to turn to for trusted guidance when making important health-care and housing decisions. HSL’s newly designed website demonstrates our ongoing commitment to maintaining our leadership as a trusted resource on all subjects related to healthy aging,” said Jennifer Davis, director of marketing communications at Hebrew SeniorLife. “The site’s user-friendly interface, educational materials and comprehensive account of HSL’s health-care and residential offerings make it the ideal destination for visitors who are exploring senior services for the first time and those who have been involved in any facet of our community for years.”</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The redesigned website showcases an expanded collection of resources compiled using the knowledge and expertise accumulated during the organization’s more than 100 year history of demonstrated leadership in senior issues. Visitors to the site can easily discover the benefits and personalities of each of the five HSL residential communities in the new “<a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/housing" target="_blank">Community Spotlight</a>” section and can access answers to common health questions using the “<a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/housing" target="_blank">Ask the Geriatrician</a>” feature.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The site also includes a variety of elements to enhance the user experience for visitors with disabilities or who speak English as a second language, including a “Chat Now” feature to communicate online with a HSL representative rather than speaking on the telephone, and a “Listen” button that audibly reads the text on each page.

<p style="text-align: left;">HSL also recently redesigned the websites for two of its continuing care retirement communities, <a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/orchard-cove" target="_blank">Orchard Cove</a> and <a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/newbridge" target="_blank">NewBridge on the Charles</a>.

Sponsored by the        independent living communities of HSL, <a href="http://www.hslindependentliving.org/retirement-university-registration" target="_blank">Retirement        University</a> invites seniors to go back to school for a semester of        classes where they can hear some of today’s most dynamic personalities        and experts discuss topics that will enhance their life in retirement.</p>
<p>“We are thrilled to launch HSL’s Retirement University and announce our        exciting line-up of ‘professors,’ beginning with what is sure to be a        memorable class from celebrity sex therapist Dr. Ruth,” said Ruth Stark,        director of marketing for the independent living communities of Hebrew        SeniorLife. “Through Retirement University we hope students learn about        themselves and how to lead a healthy and vibrant life in retirement.”</p>
<p>The inaugural semester of HSL’s Retirement University opens March 30        with a class taught by celebrity sex therapist Dr. Ruth Westheimer on        the campus of <a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/newbridge" target="_blank">NewBridge        on the Charles</a>, an HSL independent living community in Dedham, Mass.        A senior herself, Dr. Ruth will explain how to discover the best sex of        your life in your senior years and discuss the benefits of “staying        sexy.”</p>
<p>The program continues on April 13 with a class focused on “The Future of        Aging: Technologies and Innovations on the Horizon,” which will be led        by Dr. Joseph P. Coughlin, the director of the prestigious Massachusetts        Institute of Technology’s (MIT) Age Lab. The class will be held at HSL’s <a href="http://www.hebrewseniorlife.org/orchard-cove" target="_blank">Orchard        Cove</a> Independent Living Community in Canton, Mass.</p>
<p>Next up on the syllabus is a presentation from Legal Sea Foods Chefs        Rich Vellante and Peter Doire on the nutritional benefits of seafood and        how to prepare healthy, simple dishes at home. During the class, which        will take place at NewBridge        on the Charles on April 27, the chefs will discuss the importance of        good nutrition for seniors and show that eating well doesn’t have to be        boring.</p>
<p>The semester culminates at Orchard        Cove on May 11 with a class about maintaining brain fitness and why        keeping your mind sharp is especially crucial in your senior years. The        program will be led by Dr. Rob Schreiber, a leading geriatrician and        Chief Medical Officer at Hebrew SeniorLife.</p>
<p>Retirement University is sponsored by the independent living communities        of HSL: NewBridge        on the Charles in Dedham and Orchard        Cove in Canton. Both campuses offer a variety of living options that        enable active seniors to select the community that best meets their        needs and reflects their individual personalities, preferences and        lifestyle. The cost is $50 for the semester and the program is limited        to the first 250 people who register.

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>NewBridge on the Charles Gives New Meaning to &#8220;Cottage Living&#8221;</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Luxurious Cottage Homes, Extensive Amenities and a Vibrant Community Highlight an Independent, Limitless Lifestyle for Seniors</em></p>
<p>DEDHAM, MA (June 3, 2010)— The <a href="http://newbridgeonthecharles.org/cottages" target="_blank">Cottage Community</a> at NewBridge on the Charles, the state-of-the-art continuing care retirement community (CCRC) from Hebrew SeniorLife, gives a new meaning to &#8220;Cottage Living,&#8221; offering residents the benefits of a luxury single-family home, with the added amenities and security of a first-class continuing care retirement community. The Cottage lifestyle at NewBridge goes beyond the well-appointed residences and pristine, wooded landscape by providing a host of services, amenities and cultural activities that foster an independent, lively community for residents.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Cottages at NewBridge and the lifestyle the campus affords are beyond compare,&#8221; said Carol Clingan, resident of the NewBridge on the Charles Cottages. &#8220;When we decided to move from our home in Newton, Mass. to a Cottage, we still wanted the privacy and independence of a home, but also a beautiful environment in which to enjoy an exciting lifestyle free from the maintenance hassles of home ownership. At NewBridge, there&#8217;s more to do than there are hours in the day &#8211; from working out in the fitness center, to taking classes, to attending concerts and movies. We&#8217;re having more fun and meeting more new friends than we ever anticipated!&#8221;</p>
<p>Opened in June 2009, the Cottage Community at NewBridge is a cluster of 50 free-standing, single-family homes designed to provide residents with a sense of living in a traditional New England neighborhood. The Cottages range from 1,400 to 2,014 square feet, with options to increase the living space up to 3,200 square feet, and include granite countertops, spacious master suites, high-end appliances and a gas fireplace. Many of the residences have hardwood flooring and patios, and each home boasts a one- or two-car garage. In addition, Cottage Community residents also enjoy a private clubhouse, tennis court and putting green.</p>
<p>Situated on a scenic 162-acre campus in Dedham, Mass., NewBridge on the Charles offers independent and active older adults 256 homes in cottages, villas and apartments that are supported with senior services. NewBridge residents enjoy extensive amenities including concierge services, weekly housekeeping, three on-campus restaurants, an art studio, recreation facilities, walking trails, a resident-run library and state-of-the-art fitness center.</p>
<p><strong>About NewBridge on the Charles</strong></p>
<p>NewBridge on the Charles, located on the 162-acre Dr. Miriam and Sheldon G. Adelson Campus off West Street in Dedham, Mass., was developed by Hebrew SeniorLife. NewBridge on the Charles provides a continuum of state-of-the-art residences and health care services for seniors starting at age 62. The campus features the amenity-rich Carl J. and Ruth Shapiro Community Center, recreation facilities, 1.7 miles of walking trails, and 100 acres of preserved open space, for a vibrant and fulfilling living experience, regardless of age or ability.

<p><strong>BOCA RATON, Fla. (June 7, 2010)</strong>&#8211;(<a href="http://www.businesswire.com/" target="_blank">BUSINESS WIRE</a>)&#8211;Watermark Medical, Inc., a privately-held medical products and services company currently servicing the sleep-disordered breathing market, today announced the completion of a $15 million equity investment from CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA). This equity investment in Watermark Medical represents CA Technologies’ entry into the emerging Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)-based healthcare cloud market. As part of the investment, CA Technologies will hold a minority stake in Watermark Medical and two seats on Watermark’s Board of Directors.</p>
<p>Watermark Medical’s current technology enables medical practitioners to easily manage, aggregate and access critical diagnostic and historical patient information. According to Sean Heyniger, CEO of Watermark Medical, “CA Technologies is an expert in managing data in virtual and cloud environments, and this investment will further the development of our advanced, web-based technology platform.”</p>
<p>“We’re excited about working with Watermark Medical to develop innovative solutions for cloud-connected healthcare,” said Jacob Lamm, Executive Vice President of Strategy and Corporate Development at CA Technologies. “This investment provides a significant opportunity for CA Technologies to participate in the future of the management of medical data. With Watermark, we will be working with a company that can take our technology and immediately apply it toward helping improve the quality of care physicians can provide for their patients.”</p>
<p>John Sculley, co-chairman of Watermark’s Board of Directors agrees. “As an emerging leader in the medical cloud computing arena, Watermark is on track to expand the technological capabilities of traditional primary care physician (PCP) offices with our comprehensive cloud platform services,” he said. “With Electronic Medical Records, the growing tele-health industry and a new focus on preventative healthcare, there is more opportunity than ever for technology organizations such as CA Technologies to help drive innovation in the area of data management, aggregation and delivery.”</p>
<p>Watermark Medical already has seen success with its premiere product offering, the Watermark ARES device. The<em> </em>Watermark ARES (Apnea Risk Evaluation System) is the first FDA-cleared, CMS approved, in-home, wire-free, ambulatory sleep test device that provides medical practitioners with a highly accurate, lower-cost tool to diagnose patients who may be suffering from Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). This comprehensive diagnostic system is already transforming the diagnostic treatment and care of OSA with its end-to-end, diagnostic-to-therapy platform service.</p>
<p>According to Heyniger, “as Watermark’s technology expands and is increasingly incorporated into the day-to-day functions of the medical community, benefits will include: a decrease in costs to the physician and patients; ability for patients to gain access to potentially lifesaving diagnostic tests; shifting the cost burden from expensive hospital and specialist-based testing to the PCP; and increasing accuracy in tracking the long term health and wellness of patients.”</p>
