   NeoGenomics, Inc. announces Standby Equity Distribution Agreement for up to
       $5.0 million of Equity Financing from Cornell Capital Partners, LP



     Fort  Myers,  Florida  - June 8,  2005 -  NeoGenomics,  Inc (OTC BB:  NGNM)
announced today that it has entered into a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement
("SEDA") with Cornell Capital  Partners,  LP ("Cornell").  Pursuant to the SEDA,
the  Company  may, at its  discretion,  periodically  sell to Cornell  shares of
common stock for a total purchase price of up to $5.0 million. For each share of
common stock purchased  under the SEDA,  Cornell will pay the Company 98% of the
lowest volume weighted  average price ("VWAP") of the Company's  common stock as
quoted  by  Bloomberg,  LP on  the  Over-the-Counter  Bulletin  Board  or  other
principal  market on which the  Company's  common stock is traded for the 5 days
immediately following the notice date (the "Purchase Price").  Cornell will also
retain 5% of each  advance  under the SEDA.  Cornell's  obligation  to  purchase
shares of the  Company's  common  stock  under the SEDA is  subject  to  certain
conditions,  including the Company obtaining an effective registration statement
for shares of common  stock sold under the SEDA and is limited to  $750,000  per
weekly advance.  The amount and timing of all advances under the SEDA are at the
discretion of the Company and the Company is not obligated to issue and sell any
securities to Cornell, unless and until it decides to do so.

     Robert Gasparini, the President of NeoGenomics,  said, "We are delighted to
have  entered  into this  agreement.  Cornell  Capital  has been a dominant  and
driving  force in the  creation  of this  innovative  financing  mechanism.  The
Company's primary motivation in securing this equity line was to ensure that the
Company  was in a position  to move  quickly in the event that  acquisitions  or
other strategic  opportunities were presented to the Company.  With three of the
top ten genetics  laboratories being acquired in the last 12 months, it is clear
to our Board that the industry will consolidate further, and we believe that our
shareholders will realize significant  benefits if we are able to participate in
this trend toward consolidation."

     Steven Jones, a Director of NeoGenomics and the Company's  acting Principal
Financial  Officer,  said,  "Under the terms of the SEDA, equity capital will be
available  within  five days of each  advance  request,  which is a  significant
advantage over raising equity capital through  traditional  private  placements,
which can often take 4-6 months."

     Michael  Rosselli,  a Director with Cornell Capital,  stated,  "We are very
excited to participate in the genetics and molecular  biology  testing  industry
with  NeoGenomics.  We have great  respect for the  NeoGenomics  team and we are
looking forward to assisting them in meeting their growth objectives."
