Cade Industries Announces Shareholder Rights Plan

OKEMOS, Mich., Aug. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Cade Industries (Nasdaq: CADE -
news) announced today that its Board of Directors has adopted a
Shareholder Rights Plan on August 4, 1998. The adoption of the
Shareholder Rights Plan is not in response to any known effort to
acquire control of the Company.

''We believe this Shareholder Rights Plan will serve the best interests
of our shareholders if they are confronted with unfair takeover tactics
or attempts to acquire control of the Company at an inadequate price,''
said Richard A. Lund, Chief Executive Officer and President of Cade.
''Similar to over 1,700 other companies, Cade has adopted a Shareholder
Rights Plan to assure that any acquisition or change in control of the
Company would take place under circumstances in which our Board of
Directors can secure the best available transaction for all
shareholders.

''This plan is not intended to prevent the acquisition of the Company on
terms that are in the best interests of all shareholders,'' Lund
continued. ''The mere granting of the Rights will not deter any
prospective buyer willing to negotiate with our Board of Directors or
make any offer for all shares at a fair price.''

Under the Shareholder Rights Plan, Cade shareholders of record as of
August 7, 1998, will be granted a dividend of one common stock purchase
Right for each outstanding share of Cade common stock. Subject to the
terms of the Shareholder Rights Plan, each Right entitles the registered
holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of
$15.00. Until Rights become exercisable, outstanding Cade stock
certificates will represent both shares of Cade common stock and Rights.
No separate certificate will be issued for the Rights at this time.
Rights will trade with the shares of Cade common stock until such time
as they might become exercisable.

Rights would become exercisable 10 business days after any person or
group has acquired, commenced or announced its intention to commence a
tender or exchange offer to acquire 15% or more of Cade common stock.

If Rights become exercisable, holders of each Right, other than the
acquiring or adverse person, will have the right, upon payment of the
exercise price, to purchase the number of shares of Cade common stock
which, at that time, have a market value of two times the exercise price
of a Right. If the Rights become exercisable, the Cade Board of
Directors may also exchange Rights, other than those held by the
acquiring person or adverse person, in whole or in part, at an exchange
ratio of one share of Cade common stock per Right.

At any time after a person or group acquires 15% or more of Cade common
stock, if Cade is acquired in a merger or other business combination or
50% or more of its consolidated assets or earning power is sold, Rights
holders other than the acquiring person or group will have the right,
upon payment of the exercise price, to purchase that number of shares of
common stock of the acquiror that have a market value equal to two times
the exercise price of a Right.

Rights will expire August 3, 2008. Details of the Rights distribution
are contained in a ''Summary of Rights'' which will be mailed to all
Cade shareholders of record as of August 7, 1998.

Cade designs, develops, manufactures, overhauls and repairs high
technology composite components for the aerospace and air transport
industries. The Company is also a global leader in the design and
manufacture of jet engine test facilities and related ground testing
equipment. The Company's operating subsidiaries are located in Lansing,
MI; San Diego, CA; Grand Prairie, TX; and Minneapolis, MN.
