Mike Lane and Mark Franklin faced the sharks in Season 4, Episode 3 in the episode that aired September 28, 2012, bringing their Portland, OR business with them. Posture Now, the health and well-being, pitched in the Health & Wellness category, one of 70 health & wellness businesses to brave the Tank across all 17 seasons.

They came in asking $100,000 in exchange for 15% equity, putting a $667K valuation on the business.

Mark Cuban made the deal at $100,000 for 30% equity. That priced the company at $333K, a haircut from the $667K the founders walked in asking for, which is how negotiations in the Tank usually go.

Across Season 4, 52 of 103 pitches ended in a handshake. In the Health & Wellness category overall, roughly 59% of pitches have landed a shark across the show's history.
