<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt"><B>EXPLANATORY NOTE</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On September&nbsp;21, 2005, Valley Forge Scientific Corp., a former Pennsylvania corporation and
predecessor Registrant to Synergetics USA, Inc. (&#147;Valley Forge&#148;), completed its merger with
Synergetics, Inc., a Missouri corporation, pursuant to which Synergetics, Inc. became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Valley Forge (the &#147;Merger&#148;). On September&nbsp;22, 2005, Valley Forge merged
with and into VFSC Delaware, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Valley
Forge, thereby reincorporating in Delaware (the &#147;Reincorporation Merger&#148;). Simultaneously with the
Reincorporation Merger, VFSC Delaware, Inc. changed its name to Synergetics USA, Inc. (the
&#147;Registrant&#148;).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prior to the Merger and Reincorporation Merger, Valley Forge filed on October&nbsp;26, 2001 a
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No.&nbsp;333-72296) (the &#147;Initial Registration Statement&#148;)
which registered 345,000 shares of Valley Forge common stock reserved for issuance under the Valley
Forge Scientific Corp. 2001 Stock Plan (the &#147;Plan&#148;). At the Valley Forge 2005 Annual Meeting of
Shareholders on September&nbsp;19, 2005, the Valley Forge shareholders approved and adopted an amendment
to the Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the Plan by 1,000,000
shares of common stock.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On December&nbsp;30, 2005, the Registrant filed a post-effective amendment to the Initial
Registration Statement pursuant to Rule&nbsp;414 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
&#147;Securities Act&#148;), whereby the Registrant, as successor issuer to Valley Forge, expressly adopted
the Initial Registration Statement as its own for all purposes of the Securities Act and the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;By this Registration Statement, the Registrant hereby registers an additional 1,000,000 shares
of the Registrant&#146;s common stock, $0.001 par value, authorized for issuance under the Plan. The
contents of the Initial Registration Statement are hereby incorporated by reference into this
Registration Statement.

EXPLANATORY NOTE
On September 21, 2005, Valley Forge Scientific Corp., a former Pennsylvania corporation and
predecessor Registrant to Synergetics USA, Inc. ("Valley Forge"), completed its merger with
Synergetics, Inc., a Missouri corporation, pursuant to which Synergetics, Inc. became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Valley Forge (the "Merger"). On September 22, 2005, Valley Forge merged
with and into VFSC Delaware, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Valley
Forge, thereby reincorporating in Delaware (the "Reincorporation Merger"). Simultaneously with the
Reincorporation Merger, VFSC Delaware, Inc. changed its name to Synergetics USA, Inc. (the
"Registrant").
Prior to the Merger and Reincorporation Merger, Valley Forge filed on October 26, 2001 a
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-72296) (the "Initial Registration Statement")
which registered 345,000 shares of Valley Forge common stock reserved for issuance under the Valley
Forge Scientific Corp. 2001 Stock Plan (the "Plan"). At the Valley Forge 2005 Annual Meeting of
Shareholders on September 19, 2005, the Valley Forge shareholders approved and adopted an amendment
to the Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the Plan by 1,000,000
shares of common stock.
On December 30, 2005, the Registrant filed a post-effective amendment to the Initial
Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 414 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), whereby the Registrant, as successor issuer to Valley Forge, expressly adopted
the Initial Registration Statement as its own for all purposes of the Securities Act and the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
By this Registration Statement, the Registrant hereby registers an additional 1,000,000 shares
of the Registrant's common stock, $0.001 par value, authorized for issuance under the Plan. The
contents of the Initial Registration Statement are hereby incorporated by reference into this
Registration Statement.
