EXHIBIT 99
Letter of Intent terminated between Mercury Waste Solutions and
Environmental Technologies Corp.
Hurst, TX - October 10, 2000
EVTC, Inc. t/a Environmental Technologies, Corp. (NASDAQ: EVTC) and Mercury
Waste Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: MWSI) jointly announced the termination of a
letter of intent whereby EVTC had agreed to purchase a controlling interest in
MWSI through a friendly tender offer to acquire up to a maximum of 70% of MWSI's
outstanding shares. The letter of intent was terminated primarily due to EVTC's
inability to raise the required capital following the dramatic drop in the per
share price of its common stock and other disagreements on the terms of the
tender offer. There are currently no future discussions planned between EVTC and
MWSI.
EVTC, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries engages in the marketing and sale of
refrigerants, refrigerant reclaiming services, recycling of fluorescent light
ballasts and lamps and, through e-solutions, inc., directly markets business to
consumer services via the internet.
MWSI provides mercury waste recycling services. The Company has sales and
processing facilities in Union Grove, WI, and Roseville, MN; sales and storage
facilities in Marietta, GA and Indianapolis, IN; storage facilities in Albany,
NY and Kenosha, WI; and corporate offices in Mankato, MN.
