TO BUSINESS EDITOR:
CHURCHILL TECHNOLOGY INC. TO RAISE $2.5 MILLION;
COMPANY WILL ISSUE UP TO 50 MILLION SHARES
Buffalo, N.Y., March 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Churchill Technology Inc.
(Nasdaq: CHUR) today announced that it has entered into an agreement
with Fima Capital Corporation to issue up to 50 million shares of
common stock at a minimum price of $.05 per share. Fima Capital
Corporation is a British Virgin Islands Corporation which owned 7.6
percent of Churchill prior to this transaction, and which is
beneficially owned by Gamal Marwan, a Director of Churchill.
The agreement calls initially for the issuance of 30 million
shares. Robert H. Downie, Churchill president and chief executive
officer, and Dr. Ashraf Marwan are the major investors of the first
tranche of the financing. Dr. Marwan is Gamal Marwan's father. Five
million of the shares will be made available to the employees and
officers of the Company and of Novon International Inc. via an Employee
Stock Purchase Plan that will be put in place in accordance with the
appropriate regulatory requirements. The remaining 20 million shares
will be taken up by Fima and a group of investors within 60 days.
"We have been searching, without success, for debt and quasi-debt
financing for several months," said Downie.
"We believe this capital injection will sufficiently strengthen
our balance sheet, giving us access to more conventional debt markets
over the next few months. The funding will help our new Novonr product
line get off to a good start, by providing sufficient working capital
to support the production and sale of these materials. We are
optimistic about the sales prospects of our Novonr products over the
coming months, based on the interest that has been expressed since the
announcement of its availability. This capital injection will also
help us acquire assets which we believe are key to the future of our
Company," said Downie.
In a related announcement, Churchill confirmed that it has issued
11 million shares to the original Novon shareholders in accordance with
the Novon Acquisition Agreement signed in February 1994.
Churchill Technology Inc. is the parent company of Novon
International, Inc., a leader in the development and production of
specialty additives and resins that safely make plastics biodegradable.
The company's products are marketed as Novonr Specialty Polymers,
Degra-Novonr, and Aqua-Novonr.
Novon International, Inc. is a growth-stage company whose products
include additive packages, specialty polymers, and water-soluble
materials that are used in packaging, composting, agricultural, food
service, and personal care applications.
