With the recent drop of Huntingdon Life Sciences (stock symbol: LSRI) off of
the Pink Sheets and onto the 'Grey Market' and the loss of their last
significant institutional investor, Columbia Management/Bank of America, the
only thing keeping HLS afloat is their key customers and suppliers. While a
watchful eye on Wall Street will show whether anyone else gets the bright
idea of investing in LSRI or making a market for them, attention should now
be focused on the small group of companies that are providing HLS with
enough ballast to keep their heads above water

FOCUS ON: HUNTINGDON LIFE SCIENCES
CUSTOMERS & SUPPLIERS

With the recent drop of Huntingdon Life Sciences (stock symbol: LSRI) off of
the Pink Sheets and onto the 'Grey Market' and the loss of their last
significant institutional investor, Columbia Management/Bank of America, the
only thing keeping HLS afloat is their key customers and suppliers. While a
watchful eye on Wall Street will show whether anyone else gets the bright
idea of investing in LSRI or making a market for them, attention should now
be focused on the small group of companies that are providing HLS with
enough ballast to keep their heads above water.

On Monday, May 8, 2006, Operation: Sinking Ship will be launched. Operation:
Sinking Ship is a campaign whose mission is to educate the key customers and
suppliers of HLS about the cruelty and killing that they make possible with
their contracts and customer orders. The main companies, in the United
States, that continue to do business with HLS are: Pfizer, Roche, Novartis,
GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and Bristol Myers-Squibb (BMS). Key suppliers to HLS
are: Phenomenex and PDP Couriers. However, Operation: Sinking Ship will not
be limited to those companies.

Many of these companies have operations or sales offices and/or production
facilities scattered across the North American continent. Wherever you
live, there is likely a company that could be educated about the cruelty
revealed in 5 undercover investigations at Huntingdon Life Sciences.
Activists everywhere can find opportunities to campaign locally to educate
companies about how their contracts and their money fund the killing of 500
animals a day at Huntingdon Life Sciences.

Right now, over 70,000 animals are imprisoned in the cold steel cages and
concrete pens at the death camps of Huntingdon Life Sciences. There, they
wait for the white gloved hand that inevitably comes to pull them from their
cages, to insert the stomach or nose tubes that funnel caustic and noxious
chemicals into their bodies. They wait to be poisoned, burned, cut open and
brutally victimized for the scientific fraud of animal testing. Alone, they
suffer as they wait to die.
