Arrhythmia Research Technology, Inc. Announces Appointment of Julius Tabin as Director Emeritus

FITCHBURG, MA--(Marketwire - Jul 18, 2011) - Arrhythmia Research Technology, Inc. ("Arrhythmia" or the "Company") (NYSE Amex: HRT) today announced the retirement of Dr. Julius Tabin (91) from the Company's Board of Directors and his appointment as the Company's first Director Emeritus, effective immediately. Dr. Tabin has served as a Director since the Company's inception in 1981.

The Board created the new title of Director Emeritus to allow a retiring director to continue providing specific and immediate value to the Company on relevant issues. Retiring board members who have served for a minimum of 15 years can be elected as a Director Emeritus in recognition of contributions during his tenure on the Board of Directors and in appreciation for loyal and dedicated service.

"The entire Arrhythmia Board, management and our dedicated employees extend their heartfelt gratitude to Julius for his many years of dedicated service, wisdom and friendship", commented E.P. Marinos, the Company's Chairman of the Board. "His judgment and integrity helped guide Arrhythmia in its evolution from a start-up to a diverse software, medical device and services company. We are pleased to have Julius remain as a Director Emeritus given his deep understanding of our business that he acquired serving as a Director for over 30 years."

Dr. Tabin is a graduate of the University of Chicago (B.S., 1940; Ph.D. Physics, 1946) and Harvard Law School (LL.B., 1949). Following receipt of his PhD, he served as an integral member of the Manhattan Project, carrying out a series of experiments and studies as part of Enrico Fermi's personal team at Los Alamos. These included building a small reactor in Omega Canyon to determine the effective radius of the uranium nucleus and measuring the efficiency of the first atomic test blast at Alamogordo. He also worked with Manhattan Project team member Luis Alverez to design detectors to be flown over Germany to determine whether nuclear fuel was being refined there. Following World War II, he received his law degree from Harvard Law School and served as a partner in the law firm of Fitch, Even, Tabin & Flannery in Chicago until his retirement from the practice of law in June 2006. His practice focused on client counseling, litigation, and licensing in the areas of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, related contract, and antitrust law. In addition, among Dr. Tabin's many accomplishments, was the development of a corner-reflector mirror device. This device, left on the lunar surface during an Apollo mission, has enabled the use of lasers to measure the distance between the Earth and moon to within inches, by timing the time it takes for the journey of the beam.
