(HOTR) Appalachian Mountain Brewery to Acquire North Carolina Natural Energy

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Dec. 3, 2013 — In a strategic move to prepare for wholesale distribution of its award winning craft beer, Boone, NC-based Appalachian Mountain Brewery announced today it entered into a letter of intent to acquire North Carolina Natural Energy, Inc., a publicly traded company, (OTC:NCNE). North Carolina Natural Energy, Inc., a Florida Corporation headquartered in the foothills of NC will change its name to Appalachian Mountain Brewery Inc. and begin trading as a craft brewery. Terms have been agreed upon and approved by both parties with closing expected before year end.

North Carolina Natural Energy, Inc. provides a wholesale liquor, beer and wine license with US Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB.gov) as well as access to the public markets including a sophisticated shareholder group. Notably, one of NCNE’s shareholders, Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:HOTR) and its CEO Mike Pruitt, played a key advisory role in facilitating this combination. “Sean and his team have created international award-winning craft beers that are gaining brand recognition throughout our region. We look forward to showcasing AMB’s craft beers in our restaurants and assisting in its regional distribution. Our Company will continue to assist AMB in its growth and expansion to becoming a global brand,” Mike Pruitt commented.

Sean Spiegelman, founder of Appalachian Mountain Brewery will be appointed CEO of the publicly traded company and continue to manage the brewery by offering a unique experience through community stewardship and environmental sustainability as a core part of the business. The brewery’s modern equipment utilizes American Made JV Northwest Brewing equipment, a 5KW array of solar panels to offset electricity along with a recapturing system to save water in the brew process. In keeping with the brewery’s sustainable mission to reduce, reuse and recycle, AMB has a grain exchange program whereby all spent grain is donated to local farms. AMB also has a “Pints For Non-Profits Program,” whereby a portion of proceeds from each beer sold is donated to local non-profit organizations.

Craft brewer retail dollar volume in 2012 was estimated at $10.2 billion, up from $8.7 billion in 2011. Appalachian Mountain Brewery is at the forefront of a growing trend where craft brewing has increased by 15% and overall beer sales topped $99 billion in 2012.

(CXM) LifeAgain’s Bluemetric Select Life Insurance Now Offered At Lifequotes.com

First National Direct Life Insurance Marketing Company to Offer LifeAgain’s BlueMetric Select Life Insurance Program for Men with Active Localized Prostate Cancer

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 3, 2013 — LifeAgain Insurance Solutions Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cardium Therapeutics (NYSE MKT: CXM), today announced that its BlueMetric Select term life insurance program is now available through Life Quotes, Inc., the first national direct marketing company to offer LifeAgain’s term life insurance program for men with active localized prostate cancer.  Life Quotes owns and operates Lifequotes.com, an award-winning life insurance exchange staffed by approximately 100 insurance professionals.

“We are pleased to offer LifeAgain’s BlueMetric Select term life insurance program on the LifeQuotes.com platform,” stated Christopher J. Reinhard, CEO of LifeAgain.  “LifeAgain has effectively extended life insurance eligibility to as many as 400,000 men annually following their cancer diagnosis or upon the completion of prostate cancer surgery, without the traditional multi-year waiting periods and additional medical re-qualifications generally required by most life insurance companies.  The purchase of life insurance online is  steadily rising as more and more customers turn to the internet to purchase insurance.  We look forward to working with Life Quotes, and to introducing our term life insurance program for men with prostate cancer to other direct marketers to allow additional online accessibility to our BlueMetric Select term life insurance program.”

“The LifeAgain BlueMetric term life insurance plan represents a unique and significant breakthrough for certain newly-diagnosed prostate cancer patients,” remarked Robert Bland, CEO of LifeQuotes, Inc.  “We’re delighted to offer this groundbreaking new life insurance plan on our platform for the benefit of our customers who may have prostate cancer.  The competitively-priced LifeAgain BlueMetric life insurance plan represents a major marketplace advancement in terms of combining the latest bio-medical knowledge with actuarial science for the benefit of prostate cancer patients.”

The Life Insurance Direct Marketing Association (LIDMA) recently reported that, “direct response selling of life insurance is the fastest growing segment of the life insurance industry today.  Each year a higher percentage of overall life insurance sales can be attributed to some type of direct marketing effort.  More than $300 million in life insurance premium is initiated each year from direct response efforts, and direct sales of life insurance represents as much as 10% of all policy sales on an annual basis.”

For cancer patients who often feel a genuine need for life insurance, it is typically unavailable. Life insurance generally only becomes an option after five years of being cancer free.  Even then, it can be an uphill battle depending on the type, stage, grade of the cancer, and the treatment plan.  LifeAgain’s BlueMetric Select program was specifically designed to provide eligible men with term life insurance coverage following a cancer diagnosis or upon the completion of a prostate cancer surgery, without the traditional multi-year waiting periods and additional medical re-qualifications generally required by most life insurance companies.  Importantly, coverage is also now available to prostate cancer patients who are in a “watchful waiting” treatment plan, including younger men who traditionally have been denied life insurance with few exceptions.

About BlueMetric Select Term Life Insurance

The BlueMetric Select program is been designed for men aged 45-65, who are in otherwise good health and who have low- to medium-risk active localized prostate cancer, which has been confirmed by a recent biopsy, and for men who have recently completed prostate cancer surgery. This program seeks to provide term life insurance coverage and may include an automatic renewal option (following the initial ten-year term), the right to convert into universal life insurance, and an accelerated benefit in the event of a terminal illness. The BlueMetric Select Program is designed to offer substantial coverage levels, ranging from $100,000 to $1,000,000, without waiting periods, so an individual can begin the application process on the day of his prostate cancer diagnosis, or immediately following completion of prostate cancer surgery.  Additional information about the BlueMetric Select Program is available at www.lifeagain.com/wp-content/pdfs/symetra-level-term-fact-sheet.pdf.

(EDS) Enters into a Merger Agreement for a “Going Private” Transaction

FUJIAN, China, Dec. 2, 2013 — Exceed Company Ltd. (NASDAQ: EDS) (“Exceed” or the “Company”), one of the leading domestic sportswear brands in China, today announced that it has entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Pan Long Company Limited (“Parent”), an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and wholly owned by Mr. Shuipan Lin (“Mr. Lin”), the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Pan Long Investment Holdings Limited (“Merger Sub”), a business company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, pursuant to which Parent will acquire the Company for US$1.78 per ordinary share of the Company (a “Share”).  This represents a 19.5% premium over the closing price of US$1.49 on August 16, 2013, the last trading day prior to the Company’s announcement on August 19, 2013 that it had received a “going private” proposal, and a 24.4% premium over the volume-weighted average closing price of the Company’s Shares during the 30 trading days prior to August 16, 2013.  The consideration to be paid to holders of Shares implies an equity value for the Company of approximately US$60.1 million, on a fully diluted basis.

Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement, Parent will be beneficially owned by Mr. Lin, (and/or entities affiliated with or related to them) (collectively, the “Buyer Group”), together with seven existing shareholders of the Company (and/or entities affiliated with or related to them) who have elected to transfer, prior to the closing, their Shares to Parent in exchange for newly issued shares of Parent (the “Rollover Shareholders”).

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the merger (the “Effective Time”), Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”).  At the Effective Time, each of the Company’s Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive US$1.78 in cash and without interest, except for the excluded Shares (the “Excluded Shares”), which include: (i) Shares legally owned by Parent; and (ii) dissenting Shares (the “Dissenting Shares”) owned by holders of Shares who have validly exercised and not effectively withdrawn or lost their dissenter’s rights pursuant to Section 179 of the BVI Business Companies Act, 2004, as amended (the “BVI Companies Act”) (the “Dissenting Shareholders”). Each Excluded Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled and will cease to exist, and no consideration will be delivered with respect thereto. Each Dissenting Share will be cancelled at the Effective Time for the right to receive the fair value of such Shares as determined in accordance with the provisions of the BVI Companies Act.

Parent has received from Mr. Lin an equity commitment letter, pursuant to which Mr. Lin has committed to subscribe for ordinary shares in Parent in the amount of US$19,545,858 subject to adjustment in certain cases.  Mr. Lin has also entered into a limited guarantee in favor of the Company.

The Company’s board of directors, acting upon the unanimous recommendation of the independent committee formed by the board of directors (the “Independent Committee”), approved the Merger Agreement and the Merger and resolved to recommend that the Company’s shareholders vote to authorize and approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger. The Independent Committee, which is comprised solely of independent and disinterested directors of the Company who are unaffiliated with any of Parent, Merger Sub, or the Buyer Group, negotiated the terms of the Merger Agreement with the assistance of its financial and legal advisors.

The Merger, which is currently expected to close in the first quarter of 2014, is subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval by an affirmative vote of shareholders representing more than seventy percent (70%) of the outstanding Shares of the Company as of the record date, present and voting in person or by proxy as a single class at an extraordinary general meeting of the Company’s shareholders which will be convened to consider the approval of the Merger Agreement and the Merger. As of the date of the Merger Agreement, the Rollover Shareholders have agreed under a voting agreement to vote all in favor of the Merger Agreement and consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger. If completed, the Merger will result in the Company becoming a privately held company and its Shares will no longer be listed on Nasdaq.

Houlihan Lokey (China) Limited is serving as financial advisor to the Independent Committee. K&L Gates LLP is serving as United States legal advisor to the Independent Committee and the Company. Walkers is serving as BVI legal advisor to the Independent Committee.  Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP is serving as United States legal advisor to the Buyer Group.
