COMMITTEE RESPONDS TO SECOND DOMINION BRIDGE
PRESS RELEASE ON COURT ORDER
New York -- July 7, 1997 -- In response to a further press
release issued earlier today by Dominion Bridge Corporation (NASDAQ: DBCO) about
the Federal District Court's July 2, 1997 decision in Delaware, the Committee to
Revitalize Dominion Bridge Corporation issued the following statement:
On July 2, 1997, for the second time in less than a month, the
Federal court has rejected the Company's motion for expedited discovery and a
hearing with respect to the Company's counterclaims against the Committee.
In addition, the Committee has been advised by its counsel
that the Committee's by-laws, when adopted, will be fully consistent with all
requirements of Delaware law. The Company's suggestion that such by-laws would
"unlawfully divest" the Board of authority to manage the business and affairs is
completely without merit.
We again ask that stockholders recognize the Company's
pronouncements as self-serving diatribes which are designed to detract
stockholders from the real issue at hand: moving forward now with the
Committee's proposals with respect to Dominion, as set forth in its consent
solicitation statement. July 18, 1997 is the target date for accomplishing this
objective. Stockholders who support the Committee should submit the white
consent card by that date and discard the Company's green card. The white
consent cards will be valid and fully enforceable.
The Company has improperly suggested that it will not
recognize the solicitation until the matter is ultimately decided by the Court.
No Stockholder contemplating supporting the Committee should be influenced by
such a blatantly improper suggestion. Irrespective of the comments of Dominion's
self- interested Board, all Stockholders should affirmatively advise the Board
of their position on the solicitation by submitting the white consent card.
