LAVAL, QuebecNeptune Technologies & Bioressources entered into a multi-year partnership with John Elway, former NFL Super Bowl Champion and Hall-of-Fame quarterback. "In his amazing 16-year career, which included two Super Bowl Championships, a Super Bowl MVP, an NFL MVP award, and nine NFL Pro Bowls, John Elway is easily one of the most recognizable and successful athletes of all time," said André Godin, CFO. Elway retired in 1999 and statistically was the second most prolific passer in NFL history. He is currently executive vice president of football operations for the Denver Broncos in addition to being part owner of four successful Elway's Restaurants and the same number of automobile dealerships bearing his name.

Elway is featured in a testimonial video on the Neptune Technologies website, titled Just Krillin with NKO. He also issued a statement: "I started feeling better soon after taking Neptune Krill Oil (NKO®) on a daily basis. The health benefits were so significant, that I wanted to be a part of their success in the Omega-3 market worldwide. There is no doubt in my mind that NKO® improves cholesterol levels, alleviates joint pain, reduces inflammation and helps with neurological conditions. Furthermore, Omega-3's are rapidly showing promises proving to be beneficial for those who have experienced concussions."

Henri Harland, CEO and president of Neptune, added, "This is an exceptional day for our company and we could not be more pleased to partner with one of the best professional football players to ever play the game. Neptune strives to be the best at every level to ensure that we generate the highest level of value creation for our shareholders. The addition of John Elway to our team is consistent with that philosophy."
