Business Wire
puraDYN Filter Technologies Incorporated (AMEX:PFT) announced today
that it has executed subscription agreements through a non-brokered
private placement with seven accredited investors, including senior
management. As a result of this private placement, the Company has
received gross proceeds of approximately $1.14 million for the
purchase of 3,600,665 shares of common stock at $0.30 per share,
purchase of 100,000 shares at $0.60 per share, and warrants to
purchase 400,000 shares, exercisable at a price of $0.80 per share.
As part of these subscriptions, the Company will receive additional
funds of $330,000 from senior management by July 1, 2005 in
connection with the above offering. To date, $270,000 of the
$600,000 committed by senior management has been received in this
financing. Additionally, on June 10, 2005, six members of puraDYN's
management team agreed to participate in a voluntary salary
deferral program until such time as the Company reaches a cash flow
positive position. This program will reduce salaries by an
agreed-upon percentage, relative to current salary and position, on
a paycheck basis and will be retroactive beginning May 23, 2005.
Joseph V. Vittoria, Chairman, said, "Our prime objective right now
is to continue addressing our short-term liquidity while continuing
to grow the Company. The support we have received from these
investors brings us several steps closer to accomplishing that
purpose. The investment made by senior management and the voluntary
deferral of salaries by all management show considerable confidence
and long-term commitment in the Company's future. "In addition to
the cost-saving measures implemented in early 2005 and which are
ongoing, this funding will provide the financial stability to
advance our business plan through 2005 and the first half of 2006."
