Prime City One Capital Corp. (the "Corporation" or "Prime City") (TSX
VENTURE:PMO)(NEX BOARD:PMO.H), is pleased to announce that it has entered into
Memorandum of Agreement ("MoA") with Ecotecnos Ltd. and its related company
Geosensing (collectively, "EcoTecnos") with respect to a proposed change of
business transaction for Prime City. Prime City will acquire the use of
EcoTecnos' satellite detection and bioremediation technologies (the
"Technologies") by way of exclusive licenses (the "Licenses") in exchange for
19.99% of Prime City common shares. The Licenses will enable Prime City to have
the indefinite use of the Technologies for all of the Middle East and North
Africa ("MENA") regions. For countries outside of the MENA regions and excluding
South America, the Licenses permit Prime City the right of first refusal for the
commercial use of the Technologies on similar terms subject to Prime City
generating sales in those countries within three years of the transaction
closing.
Subject to shareholder and NEX approval, the Licenses will enable Prime City to
effectively change its business through the execution of a new business plan
that will enable Prime City to utilize the fully- commercialized and patented
Technologies to offer services that solve varying environmental problems. The
satellite detection service that Prime City will offer will be used to generate
2D images of any oil spill area, oil lake or sludge pit as well as properly
estimate the volume, dimensions and underground penetration of the hydrocarbon
contamination up to a depth up of 150 meters. This satellite detection service
will enable national oil companies, federal agencies and oil-remediation service
providers, among others, to have an accurate visual definition, assessment and
measurement of each individual oil lake, sludge pit or specific oil leak in
order to allow an in-depth analysis of clean-up project costs and to better
understand the scope of the environmental damage. EcoTecnos has completed over
1000 projects using satellite detection technology to geo-reference hydrocarbon
pits and other oil spills.
EcoTecnos's bioremediation technology will enable Prime City to provide an
economical and safe method for the cleanup of oil spills and contaminated soils
by decomposing contaminants utilizing beneficial microbes, surfactants and
micronutrients. EcoTecnos are pioneers in bioremediation and have patented a
specific strain of bacteria that is capable of remediating oil-contaminated soil
in harsh environmental conditions. The EcoTecnos patented bioremediation product
is fully commercialized and has been used successfully in South America in
various remediation projects.
EcoTecnos has been providing services utilizing these Technologies exclusively
in South America over ten years to a range of South American clients, including
ENAP (the Chilean National Oil Company) and the Latin American operations of
Shell, ESSO and BHP Billiton.
In conjunction with the proposed change of business for Prime City, the
Corporation will change its name to BioSat Corporation and is very pleased to
announce that Raymond J. Stapell has been appointed the President and Chief
Executive Officer of Prime City, as well as a director of the Corporation. Mr.
Stapell will replace Mr. Alex Gress who will no longer be an officer of Prime
City. However, Mr. Gress will continue to act as director of the Company.
In addition, Prime City announces a proposed private placement financing for
aggregate gross proceeds of up to $350,000 of units (each a "Unit") at a price
of $0.05 per Unit. Each unit will consist of one common share of Prime City (a
"Common Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant").
Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one additional Common
Share at a price of $0.10 for a period of 1 year from closing. Closing is
expected to occur in multiple tranches, as subscription proceeds and supporting
documentation are received. The proceeds from this offering will be used to fund
future restructuring costs and for general working capital purposes. Hold
periods will apply to the securities issued under this offering in accordance
with applicable securities laws. This offering is subject to the approval of the
NEX.
Prime City also announces the approval to grant an aggregate of 5,690,000
options to acquire common shares in the capital of Prime City at a price of
$0.10 to certain officers, directors, consultants and employees of Prime City.
Such options have an exercise price of $0.10 per share and vest immediately. The
options expire on the earlier of their fifth anniversary date or within 90 days
of the time that the optionees cease to serve as officers, directors,
consultants or employees (as applicable) of the Corporation.
