Adeptron Technologie : Adeptron and Artaflex Announce Execution of Definitive Agreement

TORONTO, Nov. 22, 2011 /CNW/ - Adeptron Technologies Corporation  (TSX-V : ATQ) ("Adeptron"), a specialist at delivering integrated product solutions and support to the global technology and electronics industry, announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement (the "Agreement") dated November 21, 2011 with Artaflex Inc. ("Artaflex"), a private company operating in Markham, Ontario, whereby the companies would combine by way of amalgamation (the "Amalgamation") under the name "Artaflex Inc." ("Amalco").

Terms of Amalgamation

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, subject to receipt of applicable regulatory and shareholder approvals, shareholders of Adeptron will receive common shares of Amalco on the basis of 0.04 common shares of Amalco for every common share of Adeptron held by them and shareholders of Artaflex will receive common shares of Amalco on the basis of 12 common shares of Amalco for every common share of Artaflex held by them.  Holders of convertible securities of Adeptron and Artaflex, if not earlier exercised, will receive identical securities of Amalco on the same basis. (This is the same exchange ratio as contemplated in Adeptron's October 25, 2011 press release as adjusted to take into account the proposed 25:1 consolidation referred to in such press release).  Following completion of the Amalgamation, Artaflex's shareholders will own approximately 75% of Amalco and Adeptron's existing shareholders will own approximately 25% of Amalco.  In conjunction with the execution of Agreement, Artaflex has agreed to advance or provide Adeptron up to  $500,000 of secured debt which carries interest at a rate of 12% per annum and shall mature and become due by February 28, 2012.

Adeptron has proceeded with the continuance into Ontario, which was approved by the shareholders at the Adeptron's shareholder meeting held in August 2011.

The Amalgamation is an arm's length transaction.  No insiders of Adeptron own securities in Artaflex and no insiders of Artaflex own securities of Adeptron.

R.H. Global Technologies Ltd., which currently holds approximately 62% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Adeptron, has agreed to support the Amalgamation subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Agreement.

Board Recommendation

The Amalgamation has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of Adeptron, following the unanimous recommendation of a special committee of directors of Adeptron (the "Special Committee").  The board of directors recommends that holders of Adeptron shares vote in favour of the Amalgamation.  The Amalgamation has also been approved by the sole director of Artaflex.

The Agreement also includes a commitment by both Artaflex and Adeptron not to solicit or initiate discussions concerning alternative transactions, including the sale of material assets.  Adeptron and Artaflex have agreed to pay a break fee of $500,000 to the other party in certain circumstances.

Details regarding these or other terms of the Amalgamation are set out in the Agreement, which will be filed by Adeptron on the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com.

Closing

Completion of the Amalgamation is subject to customary conditions, including (i) the favourable vote of two-thirds of the Adeptron common shares voted at a special meeting of shareholders called to approve the transaction (the "Adeptron Meeting"), (ii) the favourable vote of two-thirds of the Artaflex common shares (iii) and receipt of all regulatory and third party consents.

Further information regarding the Amalgamation will be contained in a proxy circular that Adeptron will prepare and mail to shareholders in connection with the Adeptron Meeting.  It is expected that the Adeptron Meeting will be held in the first quarter of 2012 and meeting materials will be mailed in accordance with applicable securities regulations.  Once mailed, the information circular will be available on www.sedar.com.  All shareholders are urged to read the information circular once it becomes available as it will contain additional important information concerning the Amalgamation.
