Bellair Ventures Inc. Enters Into Letter of Intent With Respect to the Acquisition of Urban Mechanical Contracting Ltd.

08/08/2012 8:06pm

Marketwired Canada


Bellair Ventures Inc. ("Bellair") (TSX VENTURE:BVI) announces that it has
entered into a letter of intent (the "Letter of Intent") dated August 8, 2012
with The Edward J. Winter Family Trust (the "Vendor"), Urban Mechanical
Contracting Ltd. ("Urban Mechanical"), Edward J. Winter and Marco Winter.
Pursuant to the Letter of Intent, Bellair intends to acquire all of the issued
and outstanding shares of Urban Mechanical for a purchase price of $10,000,000
less any long term debt of Urban Mechanical outstanding at closing of the
transaction (the "Purchase Price"). In the Letter of Intent, the parties have
agreed to, among other things, a 90 day exclusivity period within which to
negotiate and conclude a definitive agreement.


"Bellair believes that this horizontal integration strategy meets the increasing
demand of the Industrial Commercial Institutional ("ICI") marketplace by
combining Clean Energy Developments Corp. ("CleanEnergy"), a national leader of
sustainable design build energy solutions, with Urban Mechanical, a company with
a 45 year history of complete mechanical installations. This combination will
allow the delivery of end-to-end sustainable solutions for asset owners,
managers and construction leaders" stated Emlyn J. David, CEO of Bellair. "In
addition, a number of synergies exist between CleanEnergy and Urban Mechanical
that will enable the delivery of more cost effective and risk mitigated
solutions to customers for inside and outside thermal energy and mechanical
services."


Proposed Payment of Purchase Price

The Letter of Intent contemplates that, at closing of the transaction agreed to
in the definitive agreement, Bellair would satisfy the Purchase Price by a
combination of a payment of $500,000 in cash, the assignment to the Vendor of a
$500,000 term loan to be provided by Bellair to Urban Mechanical upon signing of
the definitive agreement in respect of the transaction, and the issuance of up
to $9,000,000 worth of common shares of Bellair at an issue price of $0.55 per
share, representing a discount of approximately 15% off the closing price on
Tuesday, August 7, 2012 of $0.65 per share. The number of Bellair common shares
to be issued on closing will be reduced by the amount of any long term debt of
Urban Mechanical outstanding on closing. Further, up to $1,000,000 of the common
shares of Bellair to be issued in satisfaction of the Purchase Price will not be
issued at closing but will be issued on the date that is one year following the
closing of the transaction to ensure the Vendor's performance of certain
obligations under the definitive agreement, and shall be subject to adjustment
in certain events.


The terms of the $500,000 term loan to be advanced by Bellair to Urban
Mechanical remain subject to negotiation and are expected to be settled and
disclosed upon signing of the definitive agreement. The advance by Bellair of
such term loan will be subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange (the
"TSX-V").


Closing of the proposed transaction will be subject to, among other things, the
signing of a definitive agreement, the satisfactory completion of Bellair's
ongoing due diligence investigations, the appointment of Edward J. Winter as a
director of Bellair, Edward J. Winter entering into an employment agreement with
Urban Mechanical on terms acceptable to Bellair and Edward J. Winter pursuant to
which Edward J. Winter will agree to act as president and as a director of Urban
Mechanical following closing of the proposed transaction and the receipt of all
necessary consents and approvals, including the approval of the TSX-V.
