Patrick Dee Chief Operating Officer (505) 241-7102 Christopher C. Spencer Chief Financial Officer (505) 241-7154 NEWS RELEASE FIRST STATE BANCORPORATION COMPLETES SALE OF COLORADO BRANCHES Albuquerque, N.M. - June 26, 2009 - First State Bancorporation ("First State") (NASDAQ:FSNM) today announced that it has completed the sale of its Colorado branches to Great Western Bank, a South Dakota-based subsidiary of National Australia Bank. The terms of the transaction call for the transfer of approximately $385 million in loans, $509 million in deposits, $20 million of premises and equipment and other assets, and the payment of a deposit premium of approximately $30 million. After the write-off of the core deposit intangible associated with these deposits and transaction costs, First State expects to record a pretax gain of approximately $23 million. "This transaction will boost our total risk-based capital ratio at both the bank and holding company levels to above 11.0%, compared to 9.0% at the bank and 8.9% at the holding company as of March 31, 2009, bringing us back to a well-capitalized position under regulatory guidelines at June 30, 2009", explained Michael R. Stanford, President and Chief Executive Officer of First State. "This transaction has solidified our capital position and is a decisive step to protecting our legacy New Mexico market and our independence. These capital ratios also do not include the more than $55 million that we have in our allowance for loan losses that is not part of the capital calculation, which further insulates our balance sheet from future losses in our loan portfolio", continued Stanford. ABOUT FIRST STATE First State Bancorporation is a New Mexico based commercial bank holding company (NASDAQ:FSNM). First State provides services, through its subsidiary First Community Bank, to customers from a total of 40 branches located in New Mexico and Arizona.

1581312-000114036114046002-ex99_1	EX-99.1 2 ex99_1.htm EXHIBIT 99.1 Exhibit 99.1 Core Resource Management Acquires Working Interests in Oklahoma Oil and Gas Properties in All Equity Deal PHOENIX, AZ -- (Marketwired) -- 12/12/14 -- The Mission of Core Resource Management, Inc. (OTCQB: CRMI) ("Core" or the "Company") to acquire and manage proven-producing wells and assets has been advanced once again. Just after assisting Nitro Petroleum, Inc. (NTRO) with the filing of a preliminary information statement with the SEC regarding Core's pending acquisition of Nitro, James Clark and Phillip Nuciola III have announced the acquisition by Core of several property interests from White Stone Resources, LP (White Stone) and Royal Energy Resources, Inc. (Royal). With the team of James Clark, CEO and Board Chairman Phillip Nuciola III, Core acquired the oil and gas assets of both White Stone and Royal in exchange for common stock equity of Core. The definitive Purchase and Sale Agreement was executed on December 12, 2014. Both White Stone and Royal are private companies. They currently own and are selling to Core nearly $1,800,000 in PV10 PDP properties. White Stone and Royal's interests appear to be very synergistic to property interests already owned by Core. The properties are minority interests of others and are also in close proximity to the assets owned by Nitro. The new management team of Core and the board of directors feel strongly that the newest acquisitions, with the help of Core's capital formation abilities, will increase company value and monthly revenues. Chief Executive Officer James Clark commented, "Our acquisitions receiving attention this week are important to the Company's continued growth and the advancement of Core's mission to acquire and manage proven-producing wells and assets. It will help grow our revenue base and scale us into a larger force in the domestic energy sector. The addition of these new assets to our balance sheet along with the compartmentalization of oil and gas expertise and our expertise in the capital markets of our team, puts us in a unique position for rapid expansion. We are pleased to welcome as stockholders the partners of White Stone and Royal. The synergies we can create as a larger company with key areas of expertise may allow for growth in stockholder value for all. With the market price of oil declining, it has produced value buying opportunities, and we feel Core can capitalize on this current market condition. By keeping a nimble business model we feel we will be able to create long term value for the shareholder in this unlikely time". Core's Chairman of the Board, Phillip Nuciola III, said the investment bankers' response was pleasing, with expressions of interest well in excess of the amounts requested. He added, "This is a positive indication of how our lenders view the quality of our assets. Importantly, Core now has access to substantial institutional cash, undrawn debt and working capital to support our operations and fund further developmental plans and partner interests as part of our growth strategy. We believe that the opportunities created by our acquisitions will allow us to grow in a time where we may be seeing tremendous value in the marketplace". The Final Definitive Purchase Sale Agreement and terms of the All-Equity deal has been executed by all parties on December 12 following the terms of the definitive LOI that was signed by all parties on November 19. About the Company: Core Resource Management is a Phoenix-based oil & gas company engaged in the acquisition of existing oil & gas production in partnership with established oil & gas operators in Texas and the Southwest. The Company does not currently engage in direct exploration but will acquire positions of up to 50% in current oil & gas production from well-established operators, seeking from time to time, to sell a percentage of their existing production in order to recycle their capital into new leases and wells. Management believes it can maximize value for its shareholders while also negotiating fair and reasonable valuations for its drilling partners.

(LEI), a company split-off from Liberty Media Corporation. The transactions were completed following a special meeting of stockholders of The DIRECTV Group held today. Special Meeting The stockholders of DIRECTV Group approved both of the proposals up for vote at the special meeting. Those proposals related to the approval of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (dated May 3, 2009) as amended, by and among Liberty, LEI, DIRECTV Group, DIRECTV and certain subsidiaries of DIRECTV and the approval of the Voting and Right of First Refusal Agreement (dated as of May 3, 2009) as amended, by and among DIRECTV Group, LEI, DIRECTV, John C. Malone (the Chairman of DIRECTV Group and Liberty), his wife and certain trusts for the benefit of their children. The final voting results were approximately 90% for adoption of the Merger Agreement and approximately 89% for approval of the Malone Agreement. The proposals were also approved by an overwhelming majority of the stockholders excluding shares of DIRECTV Group owned by Liberty and its subsidiaries, the Malones and officers and directors of Liberty. Liberty Media held a special meeting of stockholders earlier in the day and also received the necessary approvals for the transactions. Description of the Transactions In the transactions, Liberty executed a split-off that resulted in the redemption of 90% of the outstanding shares of both series of its Liberty Entertainment common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of two series of common stock of LEI. The Merger Agreement provided for two mergers that resulted in DIRECTV Group and LEI becoming wholly-owned subsidiaries of DIRECTV. In the DIRECTV merger, DIRECTV Group common stockholders (other than direct or indirect subsidiaries of LEI) received one share of DIRECTV Class A common stock for each share of common stock of DIRECTV Group that they owned. In the LEI merger, holders of outstanding shares of LEI Series A common stock and LEI Series B common stock (other than LEI or DIRECTV) received a number of shares of DIRECTV Class A common stock equal to the LEI exchange ratio for each share of LEI common stock that they owned. The LEI exchange ratio was equal to 1.11130 shares of DIRECTV common stock for each share of LEI common stock. Immediately prior to the mergers, the Malones, pursuant to the Malone Agreement, exchanged each of their shares of LEI Series B common stock for a number of shares of DIRECTV Class B common stock equal to the number of shares of LEI Series B common stock they owned multiplied by the LEI exchange ratio. The Malones are the only holders of DIRECTV Class B common stock and their votes are subject to limitations imposed by the Malone Agreement. DIRECTV Class B common stock has fifteen votes per share and certain limited consent rights and will not be publicly traded, and DIRECTV Class A common stock has one vote per share and is listed on the NASDAQ National Market System under the symbol "DTV" and will begin trading on Friday, November 20, 2009. As a result of the merger transactions, there will be approximately 910 million shares of DIRECTV Class A common stock (NASDAQ: DTV) outstanding when trading begins and approximately 22 million shares of DIRECTV Class B common stock, all of which is held by the Malones and will not be listed. In addition, stock options and SARs relating to Liberty Entertainment common stock were converted into stock options and SARs relating to DIRECTV's Class A common stock. 2 As previously disclosed in the proxy statement and prospectus sent to stockholders in connection with the stockholder vote on the Liberty transactions and other public filings, as a result of completing the Liberty transactions, the Company has assumed, on a consolidated basis, approximately $2 billion of indebtedness to Bank of America through its acquisition of Greenlady II, LLC, a subsidiary of LEI, and also has assumed rights and obligations connected with the related equity collar securing the debt. The Company has requested that Bank of America unwind the equity collar, pursuant to agreed upon market practices. The indebtedness will be repaid prior to its maturity in various stages in conjunction with the unwind. The Company will also be responsible for certain costs due to the early unwind of the various tranches of the equity collar, the amounts of which will vary depending on the Company's stock price during the unwind and other market factors. Based on DTV's closing share price of $31.04 on November 18, 2009, and other preliminary estimates of fair value of the assets and liabilities of LEI (including the fair value on that date of the equity collar and the stock based awards), the Company estimates that it will record an expense of approximately $400 million for the premium to LEI stockholders and costs of the transactions. This is an estimate and the actual charges will be disclosed in the Company's filing on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2009. Adjustments to the fair values of certain of the stock based awards and the equity collar, as long as these instruments remain outstanding, will be recorded in non-operating earnings in the consolidated statements of operations of the Company each reporting period. The Company expects that the process of unwinding the equity collar and the determination of amounts payable to Bank of America will be completed in the fourth quarter of this year, depending on market factors and other relevant considerations. 3 As a result of the decision by the Company to repay the debt and to unwind the equity collar, the Company does not intend to implement a new share repurchase program at this time. Any decision to implement a share repurchase program will be made based upon progress made in unwinding the equity collar and other relevant market conditions.

Statements may be forward looking even in the absence of these particular words. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding generation of free cash flow. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on us. The forward-looking statements contained in this document are largely based on our expectations for the future, which reflect certain estimates and assumptions made by our management. These estimates and assumptions reflect our best judgment based on currently known market conditions, operating trends, and other factors. Although we believe such estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control.

(NASDAQ: SOHO) (the "Company") today announced that the Company has acquired the hotel commercial unit of the Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences (the "Resort") located in Hollywood, Florida for $5.35 million.

The Company also entered into a 20-year management agreement for the parking garage and poolside cabanas of the Resort, as well as an agreement to operate and manage the condominium association. Pursuant to a Pre-Opening Services Agreement, the Company received a fee of $1.0 million in connection with certain pre-opening preparations. Also in connection with the closing, the Company's DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach received a construction disruption fee of $1.2 million and the Company acquired commercial unit 3 of the Resort, a +/- 3,000 square foot ballroom that was constructed and conveyed as required pursuant to an existing covenant and easement agreement.

1024126-000135448813001120-ptx_ex991	EX-99.1 3 ptx_ex991.htm PRESS RELEASE ptx_ex991.htm EXHIBIT 99.1 Pernix Contact: Joseph T. Schepers Director, Investor Relations (800) 793-2145 ext. 3002 jschepers@pernixtx.com Pernix Therapeutics Completes Acquisition of Somaxon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. THE WOODLANDS, TEXAS, March 6, 2013 - Pernix Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. ("Pernix") (NASDAQ: PTX) today announced the completion of its acquisition of Somaxon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Somaxon") (NASDAQ: SOMX) following the approval of the transaction by stockholders of Somaxon at the special meeting held on March 6, 2013. Under the terms of the agreement announced on December 11, 2012, Pernix acquired all of the common stock of Somaxon in a stock-for-stock transaction with a total value of $25 million. Somaxon stockholders will receive approximately 3,665,689 million shares of Pernix common stock based on a per share price of Pernix's common stock of $6.82, the volume-weighted average price of Pernix's common stock over the 30-day period ending on the day immediately prior to today's closing. Cooper Collins, President and CEO of Pernix, said, "We are pleased to complete the acquisition of Somaxon, which is expected to continue to broaden our product portfolio. We expect Silenor to be an important addition to our product line that will be promoted by our sales force, and we may also develop Silenor as an OTC product". Silenor® (doxepin) is approved for the treatment of insomnia characterized by difficulty with sleep maintenance and is not a controlled substance. In clinical trials, Silenor demonstrated maintenance of sleep, including into the seventh and eighth hours of the night, with no meaningful evidence of next day residual effects and an overall adverse events profile that was comparable to placebo. Stifel Nicolaus Weisel acted as financial advisor to Somaxon in the transaction. Important Safety Information About Silenor Because sleep disturbances may be caused by underlying physical and/or psychiatric disorders, symptomatic treatment of insomnia should be initiated only after a careful evaluation of the patient. The failure of insomnia to remit after 7-10 days of treatment may indicate the presence of a primary psychiatric and/or medical illness that should be evaluated. Patients should only take Silenor when they are prepared to get a full night's sleep. Silenor should be taken within 30 minutes of bedtime, and patients should confine their activities after ingestion to those necessary to prepare for bed. Patients should not consume alcohol or take other drugs that cause drowsiness with Silenor. Co-administration of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) with Silenor has not been studied and is not recommended. Patients should not take Silenor if they have untreated narrow angle glaucoma, severe urinary retention, severe sleep apnea or hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients in Silenor. Patients should avoid engaging in hazardous activities such as operating a motor vehicle or heavy machinery at night after taking Silenor, and patients should be cautioned about potential impairment in the performance of such activities that may occur during the day following ingestion. Before taking Silenor, patients should tell their doctors if they have a history of depression, mental illness or suicidal thoughts. Hypnotics have been associated with complex behaviors such as sleep driving, preparing and eating food, making phone calls, or having sex. Drowsiness, upper respiratory tract infections and nausea were the most common adverse events observed in Silenor clinical trials. About Pernix Therapeutics Holdings, Inc.

Box 66760 St. Louis, Missouri 63166-6760 Media: Melissa Zona (314) 674-5555 Investors: Susannah Livingston (314) 674-8914 Solutia Completes Acquisition of Etimex Solar Uniquely positions Solutia as a global provider of both major encapsulants to the fast-growing photovoltaics industry ST. LOUIS, June 1, 2010 -- Solutia Inc. (NYSE: SOA) has consummated the previously announced purchase of Etimex Solar GmbH, producer of Vistasolar® encapsulants, including a leading ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) encapsulant to the photovoltaic market. The €240 ($294) million acquisition of German-based Etimex Solar from Etimex Holding GmbH, which is controlled by funds advised by Alpha Gruppe, was funded with existing cash. "The completion of this transaction is a significant step in Solutia's previously stated strategy to prudently grow its specialty chemicals and performance materials portfolio through highly synergistic, bolt-on acquisitions", said Jeffry N. Quinn, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Solutia Inc. "This acquisition enhances Solutia's already strong margins while diversifying and expanding our end markets, further strengthening our position as a leading components supplier to the high-growth renewable energy sector". The addition of Vistasolar EVA into Solutia's Advanced Interlayer division, which includes Saflex PVB, uniquely positions Solutia as the sole provider of both major encapsulants to the fast-growing photovoltaic industry. "We are positioned to better meet customer needs by providing the broadest product offering in the industry", said Timothy J. Wessel, president and general manager of Solutia's Advanced Interlayer division. "The combined processing expertise, global commercial capabilities and technology resources will accelerate the expansion of both Saflex and Vistasolar in the photovoltaic market". # # # NOTE TO EDITORS : Solutia, Saflex and Vistasolar are trademarks of Solutia Inc. and/or its subsidiaries.

EX-99.1 2 rrd246772_28881.htm FIRST STATE BANCORPORATION PRESS RELEASE DATED JUNE 26, 2009 First State Bancorporation ("First State") (NASDAQ:FSNM) today announced that it has reached a definitive agreement to sell its Colorado operations to Great Western Bank, a South Dakota subsidiary of National Australia Bank H. Patrick Dee Chief Operating Officer (505) 241-7102 Christopher C. Spencer Chief Financial Officer (505) 241-7154 NEWS RELEASE FIRST STATE BANCORPORATION COMPLETES SALE OF COLORADO BRANCHES Albuquerque, N.M. - June 26, 2009 - First State Bancorporation ("First State") (NASDAQ:FSNM) today announced that it has completed the sale of its Colorado branches to Great Western Bank, a South Dakota-based subsidiary of National Australia Bank. The terms of the transaction call for the transfer of approximately $385 million in loans, $509 million in deposits, $20 million of premises and equipment and other assets, and the payment of a deposit premium of approximately $30 million. After the write-off of the core deposit intangible associated with these deposits and transaction costs, First State expects to record a pretax gain of approximately $23 million. "This transaction will boost our total risk-based capital ratio at both the bank and holding company levels to above 11.0%, compared to 9.0% at the bank and 8.9% at the holding company as of March 31, 2009, bringing us back to a well-capitalized position under regulatory guidelines at June 30, 2009", explained Michael R. Stanford, President and Chief Executive Officer of First State. "This transaction has solidified our capital position and is a decisive step to protecting our legacy New Mexico market and our independence. These capital ratios also do not include the more than $55 million that we have in our allowance for loan losses that is not part of the capital calculation, which further insulates our balance sheet from future losses in our loan portfolio", continued Stanford. ABOUT FIRST STATE First State Bancorporation is a New Mexico based commercial bank holding company (NASDAQ:FSNM). First State provides services, through its subsidiary First Community Bank, to customers from a total of 40 branches located in New Mexico and Arizona. On Friday, June 26, 2009, First State's stock closed at $2.00 per share.

EX-99.1 2 ex99_1.htm EXHIBIT 99.1 Exhibit 99.1 Core Resource Management Acquires Working Interests in Oklahoma Oil and Gas Properties in All Equity Deal PHOENIX, AZ -- (Marketwired) -- 12/12/14 -- The Mission of Core Resource Management, Inc. (OTCQB: CRMI) ("Core" or the "Company") to acquire and manage proven-producing wells and assets has been advanced once again. Just after assisting Nitro Petroleum, Inc. (NTRO) with the filing of a preliminary information statement with the SEC regarding Core's pending acquisition of Nitro, James Clark and Phillip Nuciola III have announced the acquisition by Core of several property interests from White Stone Resources, LP (White Stone) and Royal Energy Resources, Inc. (Royal). With the team of James Clark, CEO and Board Chairman Phillip Nuciola III, Core acquired the oil and gas assets of both White Stone and Royal in exchange for common stock equity of Core. The definitive Purchase and Sale Agreement was executed on December 12, 2014. Both White Stone and Royal are private companies. They currently own and are selling to Core nearly $1,800,000 in PV10 PDP properties. White Stone and Royal's interests appear to be very synergistic to property interests already owned by Core. The properties are minority interests of others and are also in close proximity to the assets owned by Nitro. The new management team of Core and the board of directors feel strongly that the newest acquisitions, with the help of Core's capital formation abilities, will increase company value and monthly revenues. Chief Executive Officer James Clark commented, "Our acquisitions receiving attention this week are important to the Company's continued growth and the advancement of Core's mission to acquire and manage proven-producing wells and assets. It will help grow our revenue base and scale us into a larger force in the domestic energy sector. The addition of these new assets to our balance sheet along with the compartmentalization of oil and gas expertise and our expertise in the capital markets of our team, puts us in a unique position for rapid expansion. We are pleased to welcome as stockholders the partners of White Stone and Royal. The synergies we can create as a larger company with key areas of expertise may allow for growth in stockholder value for all. With the market price of oil declining, it has produced value buying opportunities, and we feel Core can capitalize on this current market condition. By keeping a nimble business model we feel we will be able to create long term value for the shareholder in this unlikely time". Core's Chairman of the Board, Phillip Nuciola III, said the investment bankers' response was pleasing, with expressions of interest well in excess of the amounts requested. He added, "This is a positive indication of how our lenders view the quality of our assets. Importantly, Core now has access to substantial institutional cash, undrawn debt and working capital to support our operations and fund further developmental plans and partner interests as part of our growth strategy. We believe that the opportunities created by our acquisitions will allow us to grow in a time where we may be seeing tremendous value in the marketplace". The Final Definitive Purchase Sale Agreement and terms of the All-Equity deal has been executed by all parties on December 12 following the terms of the definitive LOI that was signed by all parties on November 19. About the Company: Core Resource Management is a Phoenix-based oil & gas company engaged in the acquisition of existing oil & gas production in partnership with established oil & gas operators in Texas and the Southwest. The Company does not currently engage in direct exploration but will acquire positions of up to 50% in current oil & gas production from well-established operators, seeking from time to time, to sell a percentage of their existing production in order to recycle their capital into new leases and wells. Management believes it can maximize value for its shareholders while also negotiating fair and reasonable valuations for its drilling partners.

EX-99.1 4 a09-33501_1ex99d1.htm EX-99.1 Exhibit 99.1 Media Contact: IR Contact Darris Gringeri (310) 964-0808 212-205-0882 DIRECTV Completes Merger Transaction with Liberty Media EL SEGUNDO, Calif., Nov. 19, 2009- DIRECTV today announced the successful completion of the previously announced transactions involving the combination of DIRECTV Group and Liberty Entertainment, Inc. (LEI), a company split-off from Liberty Media Corporation. The transactions were completed following a special meeting of stockholders of The DIRECTV Group held today. Special Meeting The stockholders of DIRECTV Group approved both of the proposals up for vote at the special meeting. Those proposals related to the approval of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (dated May 3, 2009) as amended, by and among Liberty, LEI, DIRECTV Group, DIRECTV and certain subsidiaries of DIRECTV and the approval of the Voting and Right of First Refusal Agreement (dated as of May 3, 2009) as amended, by and among DIRECTV Group, LEI, DIRECTV, John C. Malone (the Chairman of DIRECTV Group and Liberty), his wife and certain trusts for the benefit of their children. The final voting results were approximately 90% for adoption of the Merger Agreement and approximately 89% for approval of the Malone Agreement. The proposals were also approved by an overwhelming majority of the stockholders excluding shares of DIRECTV Group owned by Liberty and its subsidiaries, the Malones and officers and directors of Liberty. Liberty Media held a special meeting of stockholders earlier in the day and also received the necessary approvals for the transactions. Description of the Transactions In the transactions, Liberty executed a split-off that resulted in the redemption of 90% of the outstanding shares of both series of its Liberty Entertainment common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of two series of common stock of LEI. The Merger Agreement provided for two mergers that resulted in DIRECTV Group and LEI becoming wholly-owned subsidiaries of DIRECTV. In the DIRECTV merger, DIRECTV Group common stockholders (other than direct or indirect subsidiaries of LEI) received one share of DIRECTV Class A common stock for each share of common stock of DIRECTV Group that they owned. In the LEI merger, holders of outstanding shares of LEI Series A common stock and LEI Series B common stock (other than LEI or DIRECTV) received a number of shares of DIRECTV Class A common stock equal to the LEI exchange ratio for each share of LEI common stock that they owned. The LEI exchange ratio was equal to 1.11130 shares of DIRECTV common stock for each share of LEI common stock. Immediately prior to the mergers, the Malones, pursuant to the Malone Agreement, exchanged each of their shares of LEI Series B common stock for a number of shares of DIRECTV Class B common stock equal to the number of shares of LEI Series B common stock they owned multiplied by the LEI exchange ratio. The Malones are the only holders of DIRECTV Class B common stock and their votes are subject to limitations imposed by the Malone Agreement. DIRECTV Class B common stock has fifteen votes per share and certain limited consent rights and will not be publicly traded, and DIRECTV Class A common stock has one vote per share and is listed on the NASDAQ National Market System under the symbol "DTV" and will begin trading on Friday, November 20, 2009. As a result of the merger transactions, there will be approximately 910 million shares of DIRECTV Class A common stock (NASDAQ: DTV) outstanding when trading begins and approximately 22 million shares of DIRECTV Class B common stock, all of which is held by the Malones and will not be listed. In addition, stock options and SARs relating to Liberty Entertainment common stock were converted into stock options and SARs relating to DIRECTV's Class A common stock. 2 As previously disclosed in the proxy statement and prospectus sent to stockholders in connection with the stockholder vote on the Liberty transactions and other public filings, as a result of completing the Liberty transactions, the Company has assumed, on a consolidated basis, approximately $2 billion of indebtedness to Bank of America through its acquisition of Greenlady II, LLC, a subsidiary of LEI, and also has assumed rights and obligations connected with the related equity collar securing the debt. The Company has requested that Bank of America unwind the equity collar, pursuant to agreed upon market practices. The indebtedness will be repaid prior to its maturity in various stages in conjunction with the unwind. The Company will also be responsible for certain costs due to the early unwind of the various tranches of the equity collar, the amounts of which will vary depending on the Company's stock price during the unwind and other market factors. Based on DTV's closing share price of $31.04 on November 18, 2009, and other preliminary estimates of fair value of the assets and liabilities of LEI (including the fair value on that date of the equity collar and the stock based awards), the Company estimates that it will record an expense of approximately $400 million for the premium to LEI stockholders and costs of the transactions. This is an estimate and the actual charges will be disclosed in the Company's filing on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2009. Adjustments to the fair values of certain of the stock based awards and the equity collar, as long as these instruments remain outstanding, will be recorded in non-operating earnings in the consolidated statements of operations of the Company each reporting period. The Company expects that the process of unwinding the equity collar and the determination of amounts payable to Bank of America will be completed in the fourth quarter of this year, depending on market factors and other relevant considerations. 3 As a result of the decision by the Company to repay the debt and to unwind the equity collar, the Company does not intend to implement a new share repurchase program at this time. Any decision to implement a share repurchase program will be made based upon progress made in unwinding the equity collar and other relevant market conditions.

Statements may be forward looking even in the absence of these particular words. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding generation of free cash flow. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on us. The forward-looking statements contained in this document are largely based on our expectations for the future, which reflect certain estimates and assumptions made by our management. These estimates and assumptions reflect our best judgment based on currently known market conditions, operating trends, and other factors. Although we believe such estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control. As such, management's assumptions about future events may prove to be inaccurate. For a more detailed description of the risks and uncertainties involved, see "Risk Factors" in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other SEC filings.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements herein include, but are not limited to: the timing and extent of changes in market conditions and prices for natural gas, oil and natural gas liquids ("NGLs"), including regional basis differentials and the impact of reduced demand for our production and products in which our production is a component due to governmental and societal actions taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic; our ability to fund our planned capital investments; a change in our credit rating, an increase in interest rates and any adverse impacts from the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate; the extent to which lower commodity prices impact our ability to service or refinance our existing debt; the impact of volatility in the financial markets or other global economic factors, including the impact of COVID-19; difficulties in appropriately allocating capital and resources among our strategic opportunities; the timing and extent of our success in discovering, 2 developing, producing and estimating reserves; our ability to maintain leases that may expire if production is not established or profitably maintained; our ability to realize the expected benefits from the acquisition of Montage Resources Corporation ("Montage Acquisition"); costs in connection with the Montage Acquisition; integration of operations and results subsequent to the Montage Acquisition; our ability to transport our production to the most favorable markets or at all; the impact of government regulation, including changes in law, the ability to obtain and maintain permits, any increase in severance or similar taxes, and legislation or regulation relating to hydraulic fracturing, climate and over-the-counter derivatives; the impact of the adverse outcome of any material litigation against us or judicial decisions that affect us or our industry generally; the effects of weather; increased competition; the financial impact of accounting regulations and critical accounting policies; the comparative cost of alternative fuels; credit risk relating to the risk of loss as a result of non-performance by our counterparties; and any other factors listed in the reports we have filed and may file with the SEC that are incorporated by reference herein.

EX-99.1 3 soho-ex991_75.htm EX-99.1 soho-ex991_75.htm Exhibit 99.1 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 SOTHERLY HOTELS INC. ANNOUNCES ACQUISITON OF CONDO HOTEL COMMERCIAL UNIT Williamsburg, Virginia - September 30, 2019 - Sotherly Hotels Inc. (NASDAQ: SOHO) (the "Company") today announced that the Company has acquired the hotel commercial unit of the Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences (the "Resort") located in Hollywood, Florida for $5.35 million. In connection with the closing, the Company acquired the hotel commercial unit, which consists of the designated lobby and front desk area, offices, and other spaces. The Company also entered into a 20-year management agreement for the parking garage and poolside cabanas of the Resort, as well as an agreement to operate and manage the condominium association. Pursuant to a Pre-Opening Services Agreement, the Company received a fee of $1.0 million in connection with certain pre-opening preparations. Also in connection with the closing, the Company's DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach received a construction disruption fee of $1.2 million and the Company acquired commercial unit 3 of the Resort, a +/- 3,000 square foot ballroom that was constructed and conveyed as required pursuant to an existing covenant and easement agreement. The Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences is a recently completed new development in Hollywood, Florida. The 342-unit condominium-hotel consists of 265 use-restricted units and 77 residences that feature one, two- and three-bedroom layouts. The property will feature luxury amenities, including an expansive pool deck with infinity edge pool, Sports Club and Aqua Club on the Intracoastal Waterway. Drew Sims, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, "The Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences is a first-class luxury development that we are thrilled to add to the Sotherly portfolio. Our management team has experience with the condo-hotel model and we believe it is an attractive opportunity to turn a modest investment into tremendous value for our shareholders. In addition, the project's location adjacent to the DoubleTree Hollywood Beach Resort and across the street from the Hyde Resort & Residences provides for operational efficiencies and sales and marketing synergies as it presents our team with a wide variety of product offerings and amenities to offer our guests. This should benefit both projects and the Company as a whole". About Sotherly Hotels Inc.

EX-99.1 3 ptx_ex991.htm PRESS RELEASE ptx_ex991.htm EXHIBIT 99.1 Pernix Contact: Joseph T. Schepers Director, Investor Relations (800) 793-2145 ext. 3002 jschepers@pernixtx.com Pernix Therapeutics Completes Acquisition of Somaxon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. THE WOODLANDS, TEXAS, March 6, 2013 - Pernix Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. ("Pernix") (NASDAQ: PTX) today announced the completion of its acquisition of Somaxon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Somaxon") (NASDAQ: SOMX) following the approval of the transaction by stockholders of Somaxon at the special meeting held on March 6, 2013. Under the terms of the agreement announced on December 11, 2012, Pernix acquired all of the common stock of Somaxon in a stock-for-stock transaction with a total value of $25 million. Somaxon stockholders will receive approximately 3,665,689 million shares of Pernix common stock based on a per share price of Pernix's common stock of $6.82, the volume-weighted average price of Pernix's common stock over the 30-day period ending on the day immediately prior to today's closing. Cooper Collins, President and CEO of Pernix, said, "We are pleased to complete the acquisition of Somaxon, which is expected to continue to broaden our product portfolio. We expect Silenor to be an important addition to our product line that will be promoted by our sales force, and we may also develop Silenor as an OTC product". Silenor® (doxepin) is approved for the treatment of insomnia characterized by difficulty with sleep maintenance and is not a controlled substance. In clinical trials, Silenor demonstrated maintenance of sleep, including into the seventh and eighth hours of the night, with no meaningful evidence of next day residual effects and an overall adverse events profile that was comparable to placebo. Stifel Nicolaus Weisel acted as financial advisor to Somaxon in the transaction. Important Safety Information About Silenor Because sleep disturbances may be caused by underlying physical and/or psychiatric disorders, symptomatic treatment of insomnia should be initiated only after a careful evaluation of the patient. The failure of insomnia to remit after 7-10 days of treatment may indicate the presence of a primary psychiatric and/or medical illness that should be evaluated. Patients should only take Silenor when they are prepared to get a full night's sleep. Silenor should be taken within 30 minutes of bedtime, and patients should confine their activities after ingestion to those necessary to prepare for bed. Patients should not consume alcohol or take other drugs that cause drowsiness with Silenor. Co-administration of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) with Silenor has not been studied and is not recommended. Patients should not take Silenor if they have untreated narrow angle glaucoma, severe urinary retention, severe sleep apnea or hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients in Silenor. Patients should avoid engaging in hazardous activities such as operating a motor vehicle or heavy machinery at night after taking Silenor, and patients should be cautioned about potential impairment in the performance of such activities that may occur during the day following ingestion. Before taking Silenor, patients should tell their doctors if they have a history of depression, mental illness or suicidal thoughts. Hypnotics have been associated with complex behaviors such as sleep driving, preparing and eating food, making phone calls, or having sex. Drowsiness, upper respiratory tract infections and nausea were the most common adverse events observed in Silenor clinical trials. About Pernix Therapeutics Holdings, Inc.

Box 66760 St. Louis, Missouri 63166-6760 Media: Melissa Zona (314) 674-5555 Investors: Susannah Livingston (314) 674-8914 Solutia Completes Acquisition of Etimex Solar Uniquely positions Solutia as a global provider of both major encapsulants to the fast-growing photovoltaics industry ST. LOUIS, June 1, 2010 -- Solutia Inc. (NYSE: SOA) has consummated the previously announced purchase of Etimex Solar GmbH, producer of Vistasolar® encapsulants, including a leading ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) encapsulant to the photovoltaic market. The €240 ($294) million acquisition of German-based Etimex Solar from Etimex Holding GmbH, which is controlled by funds advised by Alpha Gruppe, was funded with existing cash. "The completion of this transaction is a significant step in Solutia's previously stated strategy to prudently grow its specialty chemicals and performance materials portfolio through highly synergistic, bolt-on acquisitions", said Jeffry N. Quinn, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Solutia Inc. "This acquisition enhances Solutia's already strong margins while diversifying and expanding our end markets, further strengthening our position as a leading components supplier to the high-growth renewable energy sector". The addition of Vistasolar EVA into Solutia's Advanced Interlayer division, which includes Saflex PVB, uniquely positions Solutia as the sole provider of both major encapsulants to the fast-growing photovoltaic industry. "We are positioned to better meet customer needs by providing the broadest product offering in the industry", said Timothy J. Wessel, president and general manager of Solutia's Advanced Interlayer division. "The combined processing expertise, global commercial capabilities and technology resources will accelerate the expansion of both Saflex and Vistasolar in the photovoltaic market". # # # NOTE TO EDITORS : Solutia, Saflex and Vistasolar are trademarks of Solutia Inc. and/or its subsidiaries.
