Live Webcast from New York on Thursday, 10 June

Sydney, Australia and San Diego, California - 3 June, 2010 - Marshall Edwards, Inc.

About Marshall Edwards, Inc.

Marshall Edwards, Inc. (NASDAQ: MSHL) is a specialist oncology company focused on the clinical development of novel anti-cancer therapeutics. These derive from an investigational isoflavone technology platform, which has generated a number of novel compounds characterised by broad ranging activity against a range of cancer cell types with few side effects. The combination of anti-tumour cell activity and low toxicity is believed to be a result of the ability of these compounds to target an enzyme present in the cell membrane of cancer cells, thereby inhibiting the production of pro-survival proteins within the cell. Marshall Edwards has licensed rights from Novogen Limited (ASX: NRT; NASDAQ: NVGN) to bring oncology drugs phenoxodiol, triphendiol and NV-128 to market globally.

Marshall Edwards is majority owned by Novogen Limited, an Australian biotechnology company that is specialising in the development of therapeutics based on an isoflavone technology platform. Novogen is developing a range of therapeutics across the fields of oncology, cardiovascular disease and inflammatory diseases. More information on Marshall Edwards and on the Novogen group of companies can be found at www.marshalledwardsinc.com and www.novogen.com.
