The Quigley Corporation Shareholders Approve Name Change to ProPhase Labs, Inc.

Shareholders Also Approve Four Additional Key Proposals, All by Substantial Majority

The Quigley Corporation (NASDAQ: QGLY) held its annual shareholder meeting on Wednesday, May 5, 2010 in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. During the meeting, shareholders voted to change the name of the corporation to ProPhase Labs, Inc. In addition to the new corporate name, the ticker symbol of the company will change to (NASDAQ: PRPH). The changes in the name and ticker are expected to become effective on May 6 and May 7, 2010, respectively. The new corporate website will be www.prophaselabs.com. The Quigley Corporation is well known as the manufacturer and distributor of Cold-EEZE®, Kids-EEZE® and other OTC healthcare remedies. The name change reflects favorable changes in management and direction that have taken place during the past year.

The name change was one of five proposals overwhelmingly approved by a substantial majority of the shareholders who voted. The other four proposals include:

• Re-election of the seven members of the Board of Directors
• The ratification of the 2010 Equity Compensation Plan
• The ratification of the 2010 Directors' Equity Compensation Plan
• The ratification of Amper, Politziner & Mattia, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010

"The vote was a culmination and affirmation of more than a year of very hard work," said CEO Ted Karkus. "The shareholder support for our team is very much appreciated. Our new identity sets the stage for a new growth phase for our Company by improving our image with our important retailers as well as with investors."

The roll-out of the corporate identity change to "ProPhase Labs" will occur over the next 6-8 weeks. Other aspects of the new corporate name and identity will include a new corporate logo, and improved product Cold-EEZE®, and Kids-EEZE® packaging.
