Press Release Summary: Growing Generations, the nation's largest surrogacy agency,
has launched a new program that provides surrogacy and egg donation services to men
with HIV and allows them to use their own sperm to create biological families.

Press Release Body: Los Angeles, Calif., May 13, 2008 - Growing Generations, the
nation's largest surrogacy agency, has launched a new program that provides
surrogacy and egg donation services to men with HIV and allows them to use their own
sperm to create biological families.

The new program is made possible due to advances in technology that can test semen
for the virus as well as the implementation of recent California legislation enacted
in January that provides the opportunity to use semen from someone with HIV for
assisted reproduction. The company already has five cases of men with HIV working
with egg donors and surrogates, and expects the number to grow as more people become
aware of the availability of the service.

"We are pleased that science and legislation have come together to provide a safe
and reasonable approach on this issue," Growing Generations President Gail Taylor
said. "As we have been since our founding in 1996, we are committed to assisting
individuals who have not always been embraced by the mainstream in creating loving
homes for very wanted children. This includes gay men, single parents and now people
with HIV."

Participants in Growing Generations' new program go through the same process as
other clients with the addition of an extensive screening and preparation process
for the sperm. Many men with HIV show no material trace of the virus in their semen.

"We have known for many years that with proper medication and care, people with HIV
can live long and healthy lives," Taylor added. "Now, they can also make what is the
ultimate life choice for many people and create their own biologically connected
family."
