(Euronext Paris IMPL; OTCQX: IMPZY), a French medical technology company specializing in vertebral and knee-surgery implants, has qualified to have its American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) trade on the OTCQX® Best Market.

We look forward to being part of Implanet's continued growth and success."
David Dieumegard, CFO of Implanet, commented, "Given our increased presence in the U.S. following the recent FDA clearance of our latest device to address the degenerative spine market, JAZZ Lock®, we are very pleased that our ADRs are now trading on the OTCQX market.

Joining OTCQX will complement our presence on EURONEXT, while facilitating and enhancing global trading in Implanet's shares."
