Let's tell it like it is, we are a little myopic here in NYC so it was very interesting to see Unilife included in the  S&P Australian 300 Index. From the press release:

"The S&P/ASX 300® Index is comprised principally of the 300 largest and most liquid stocks listed and traded on the Australian Stock Exchange. Inclusion in the S&P/ASX 300® Index is based on certain criteria regarding listing, size and liquidity and is rebalanced every six months.

"Standard & Poor's Index Services is the leading provider of equity indices in Australia, as such, being included in the S&P/ASX 300® Index is an important achievement for Unilife and will help increase our Company's visibility among investors in the Australian equity market," stated Alan Shortall, CEO of Unilife Corporation. "Membership in this widely followed index comes in addition to being included in approximately 25 indices in the U.S., including the Russell 2000, Russell Microcap and Russell Global indexes."

The S&P/ASX 300® provides up to an additional 100 small cap stocks to the S&P/ASX 200. This index is designed to address investment managers' needs to benchmark against a portfolio characterized by sufficient size and liquidity. S&P/ASX 300 is a component of the Australian indices that could be used as building blocks for portfolio construction.

Index performance data for the S&P/ASX 300® is available at http://www.standardandpoors.com/indices/sp-asx-300/en/us/?indexId=spausta300audff--p-au----"
