Toby Chu, SEG's President and Chief Executive Officer, states: "This merger with Future Technologies will allow us to maintain our schedule for entering the U.S. equities market with terms consistent with enhancing shareholder value."

A defined portion of these shares will be escrowed and released according to a time-based formula.
