TEXT:
Novasys Medical Inc. will pay $650,000 to Curon Medical Inc.  
to use its intellectual property in making products to treat 
genito-urinary conditions, the companies said Friday. 

Fremont-based Curon (NASDAQ: CURN) develops products for the 
treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. Larry C. Heaton, the 
company's president andchief executive, said the intellectual  
property involved is unrelated to Curon's core business, so  
thetransaction will have no adverse impact.  

Newark-based Novasys is a privately held, venture-backed  
company which develops therapies for women's health. The   
company's initial focus is the development and 
commercialization  of a nonsurgicalapproach to the
treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.
