Blaine Mailer, President & CEO of REDUX ENERGY CORPORATION ("Redux") announces that the Company has engaged CIBC Wood Gundy Securities Inc. as an investment advisor and lead agent in connection with a proposed offering of convertible debentures. The proposed offering is expected to raise proceeds in excess of $5,000,000, which are to be used by REDUX to finance the expansion of its Charge Air Cooler manufacturing facility and increase production capacity. The proposed offering is subject to regulatory approval. Redux and its wholly owned subsidiary Thermal Control Technologies Corp. ("TCT") also announce the completion of their portion of extensive testing of TCT's cooling package by Detroit Diesel Corporation ("DDC") of Detroit Michigan and Williams Detroit Diesel Allison ("Williams DDA") of Las Vegas, Nevada. The Charge Air Cooler (CAC) radiator cooling package was tested for DDC, Air to Water ("ATW") value and Intake Manifold Temperature Differential (IMTD) requirements. DDC's ATW requirement is to be less than or equal to 1000 degrees Fahrenheit and the TCT radiators test value was 90 degrees Fahrenheit. DDC's IMTD requirement is to be less than or equal to 37.50 degrees Fahrenheit and the TCT CAC test value was 22 degrees Fahrenheit. The test was conducted on behalf of the Citizens Area Transit, Las Vegas, Nevada on a DDC repowered bus manufactured by New Flyer Bus Company of Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. The excellent performance of the TCT cooling package is a direct result of extensive research, development and testing conducted over the past 12 months with the cooperation and under the scrutiny of Williams DDA and DDC. The repower of Metro-Transit buses and motor coaches is a standard practice in the industry which includes the complete overhaul of the vehicle including the installation of a new engine and engine cooling system. The TCT CAC/Radiator Cooling package has now met the requirements of DDC which supplies a majority of the engines to the current North American Manufacturers of Metro Transit Systems and motor coaches. Redux/TCT considers this to be a major achievement as well as the most significant advance in TCT's goal to become the cooling system of choice not only at the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) level but in the after market for buses. REDUX also announces that a total of 797,578 warrants have been exercised into common shares of Redux, at $1.35 per share, raising aggregate proceeds of approximately $1,076,730. The warrants, which expired at the close of business of August 27, 1997, were previously issued in connection with a rights offering in July of 1996. REDUX, through its wholly owned subsidiary Thermal Control Technologies Corp., manufactures a line of Charge Air Coolers for use on diesel engines on Freightliner, Kenworth, Peterbilt and Navistar Class 8 trucks at its manufacturing facility in Lincoln, Nebraska.
