WEST HAVEN, CONNECTICUT -- June 25, 2012 -- NanoViricides, Inc. (OTC BB: NNVC) (the "Company") announced today that Mr. Stanley Glick, CPA has been appointed as a Director of the Company and the Chairman of its Audit Committee.

Mr. Stanley Glick, CPA, was appointed to the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee of the Company on June 22, 2012.

The Company has expanded and enhanced its Board of Directors by the appointment of Stanley Glick CPA, as an independent director. The Company understands that as an SEC-filing company trading on the over-the-counter bulletin-board, the Company is currently not required to appoint independent board members, and is not required to appoint an independent board member financial expert to chair its Audit Committee. However, the Company believes that an independent board member with expertise in financial reporting and management advisory services, chairing the audit committee, would provide additional assurances to the financial community and other users of the Company’s financial statements.

“With the appointment of Stanley as an independent director and audit committee chairman, we are now able to significantly improve the Company’s financial oversight and management functioning,” stated Eugene Seymour, MD, MPH, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
