A release published earlier today by MediSwipe Inc. (OTCBB:MWIP) announced that the Company planned to retire 26 million common shares to the company's treasury; please note that MediSwipe is actually planning to retire 36 million common shares. The corrected release follows in its entirety:
MediSwipe Inc. (http://www.MediSwipe.com) (OTCBB:MWIP), a leading company specializing in merchant payment solutions and financial products for the medical health care industries and mobile payment industry, today announced plans to retire thirty six million (36) common shares to the Company's treasury that will be sent to the transfer agent for retirement. In a pre-arrange deal and recent board resolution, this retirement represents over ten percent (10%) of the current outstanding share count held by the parent Company. MediSwipe believes the retirement of these shares benefits the Company and all shareholders by reducing the number of outstanding shares and lowering dilution.

"Shareholders will be updated as this process is implemented. It must be said that our Company has no plans to issue any stock, save for any transactions or any possible mergers or acquisitions that are presented to the Board and deemed to increase the value of our Company. Are plans are to file our 10 Q on time by the 15th of this month which is now completed, and complete the S-1 spin-off of our subsidiary 800 Commerce by the end of September offering every current shareholder a dividend share of their holdings once effective. Our goal is now as it has always been, which is to reward shareholders moving forward, stated B. Michael Friedman, CEO of MediSwipe Inc."
