International Medical Group Again Among the ICIC and Fortune Magazine’s Inner City 100 Winners

INDIANAPOLIS, May 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — International Medical Group®, Inc.
(IMG®), a driving force and leader in the international health insurance market,
has been named to the 2011 Inner City 100, a list of the fastest-growing inner
city companies in the U.S. as determined by the Initiative for a Competitive
Inner City (ICIC) and Fortune Magazine. This year marks the fifth time that IMG
made the list, and its induction into the 2011 Inner City Hall of Fame. The
program recognizes successful inner city companies and their CEO’s as role
models for entrepreneurship, innovative business practices and job creation in
America’s urban communities. IMG placed 84th on the list.

Since the inaugural Inner City list in 1999, a select group of dynamic inner
city businesses have been recognized as repeat Inner City 100 winners because of
their astounding growth rates over a sustained period. These companies are
showcased during their fifth year on the Inner City 100 list as Hall of Fame
recipients. IMG was also named to the list in 2004, 2006, 2009, and 2010.

“2011 marks our fifth year of making the Inner City 100 list,” said Joseph
Brougher, President of IMG. “We appreciate the recognition that ICIC has given
us for what we have been able to achieve. This award illustrates IMG’s continued
commitment to our clients and our community. We are proud to be among other
great companies, and we very highly regard the award.”

“We are delighted to celebrate businesses like International Medical Group that
are playing a critical role in revitalizing America’s urban communities. Through
their achievements, the Inner City 100 winning companies exemplify America’s
remarkable potential and the road to future economic recovery,” stated Mary Kay
Leonard, ICIC President and CEO. “These extraordinary companies demonstrate the
market possibilities that exist within our inner cities and the growth that is
at the heart of all urban entrepreneurial successes.”

The Inner City 100 list provides unmatched original data on the fastest growing
inner city businesses in the U.S. In the last 13 years, 661 different companies
have earned positions on the Inner City 100, collectively generating more than
$2.2 billion in annual revenues and creating nearly 70,000 new jobs. Chevron
Corporation, Staples Foundation and Goldman Sachs are long-time sponsors of the
program.

For the 2011 list, a record number of two thousand nominations were received.
Winners represented a wide span of the U.S., operating in 51 cities and 32
states. The 2011 Inner City 100 winners grew at a compound annual growth rate of
39 percent and an average standard growth rate of 379 percent between 2004 and
2009. Collectively, the top 100 inner city businesses employ 6,720 employees and
