Bellair Ventures Inc. Enters into Share Purchase Agreement with Respect to the Acquisition of Urban Mechanical Contracting Ltd.

03/10/2012 1:00pm

Marketwired Canada


Bellair Ventures Inc. ("Bellair") (TSX VENTURE:BVI) announces that it has
entered into a share purchase agreement (the "Agreement") dated September 6,
2012 with The Edward J. Winter Family Trust (the "Vendor"), Edward J. Winter and
Marco E. Winter. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Vendor agreed to sell and
Bellair agreed to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of Urban
Mechanical Contracting Ltd. ("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"). The entering into of the Agreement
terminated the letter of intent dated August 8, 2012 between Bellair, the
Vendor, Urban Mechanical, Edward J. Winter and Marco E. Winter. 


"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." 


"This transaction will only build on the business I have spent 45 years
building. Adding a Geo Thermal solution and services business will help us move
our business into the next generation to offer complete sustainable design build
solutions to the ICI marketplace," commented Mr. Edward J. Winter, President of
Urban Mechanical. "I look forward to working and growing this innovative
platform."


Payment of Purchase Price 

The Agreement requires the Purchase Price be paid at the closing of the
transaction by a payment of $500,000 in cash, the assignment to the Vendor by
Bellair of a $500,000 term loan to be advanced by Bellair to Urban Mechanical
upon the later of fifteen days after signing the Agreement and two days after
the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V") gives its approval for the advance, 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
$2,000,000 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 Agreement, and shall be subject to
adjustment in certain events.


Bellair Financing of Urban Mechanical 

The $500,000 term loan to be advanced by Bellair to Urban Mechanical will be
payable by Urban Mechanical on demand at any time after 6 months following the
date of the advance and it will be subject to interest charged at a rate of 10%
per annum. The amount advanced will be subject to a security interest granted
over all of the personal property of Urban Mechanical. The priority of such
security interest will be subject to certain prior ranking existing security
interests over Urban Mechanical's assets. The proceeds of the advance are
expected to be used as operating capital. The advance by Bellair of such term
loan will be subject to approval by the TSX-V.


Conditions of Closing
