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.

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.

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.
Forward Looking Statements:
Statements which are not historical facts contained in this release are forward looking statements, such as "immediately accretive" that involve risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to, the effect of economic conditions, the impact of competition, the results of financing efforts, changes in consumers' preferences and trends.

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.

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.

SKYWEST COMPLETES PURCHASE OF ATLANTIC SOUTHEAST
AIRLINES
ST. GEORGE, UT,-(NASDAQ:SKYW) SkyWest, Inc., ("SkyWest") announced
today that it has completed the purchase of Atlantic Southeast Airlines, Inc.,("ASA")
for a purchase price of $425 million. As
a result of the transaction, ASA is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of SkyWest. Together with SkyWest Airlines, Inc., ("SkyWest
Airlines") SkyWest's existing wholly-owned subsidiary, the two carriers will
create the largest regional airline carrier network in the domestic United
States. The purchase transaction also
resulted in the amendment and extension of existing Delta Connection operating
agreements under which SkyWest Airlines and ASA obtained the rights to continue
flying as Delta Connection carriers through 2020.
"The acquisition of ASA enhances our strategic position and
accomplishes several key corporate objectives", said Bradford R. Rich, SkyWest Executive
Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. "We are pleased that the deal has been
consummated, but remain focused on the importance of serving our customers and
providing a productive work environment for our employees" he continued.
SkyWest paid $350 million in cash at closing, consisting of $330
million of the purchase price and $20 million relating to certain aircraft financing
deposits Delta had previously paid. An
additional $125 million representing $95 million of the purchase price and $30
million relating to the return of certain aircraft financing deposits is
payable to Delta, pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement, upon the
earlier of the assumption by Delta of the ASA and SkyWest Airlines Delta
Connection Agreements should Delta file for reorganization under Chapter 11, or
four years after closing of the transaction.
SkyWest would be entitled to retain the escrow deposit if Delta files
for reorganization under Chapter 11 and rejects its Delta Connection agreement
with ASA or SkyWest Airlines prior to the fourth anniversary of the closing of
this transaction.
Separate Operations
For the foreseeable future, SkyWest intends to operate SkyWest Airlines
and ASA as wholly-owned subsidiaries, with separate labor groups and FAA
operating certificates.
For the first year following the closing of the transaction, Delta has
agreed to continue to provide to ASA certain transitional administrative and
information technology services. SkyWest
expects those functions will be transitioned to SkyWest personnel over the
course of the coming year. As part of
its planned transition, SkyWest intends to launch an intense "best practices"
initiative to identify and capitalize on the strengths of each of SkyWest
Airlines and ASA and to realize potential efficiencies.
Customers
SkyWest does not currently intend to make any significant changes to
the operating schedules or aircraft deployment of either SkyWest Airlines or
ASA. Customers of both carriers can
continue to expect to receive the superior high-quality service to which they
have become accustomed. Combined,
SkyWest Airlines and ASA will have primary hubs in Atlanta, Cincinnati,
Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Salt Lake City, Denver, Portland, and
Seattle/Tacoma.
ASA and SWA Delta Connection Agreements
The new Delta Connection agreements provide for each of SkyWest
Airlines and ASA to continue flying as Delta Connection Carriers for terms of
15 years. These agreements will continue
to be capacity purchase arrangements with both carriers being compensated in a
manner substantially similar to their prior agreements.
Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, this release contains
forward-looking statements. SkyWest may,
from time to time, make written or oral forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements encompass SkyWest's beliefs,
expectations, hopes or intentions regarding future events. Words such as "expects", "intends", "believes,"
"anticipates", "should", "likely" and similar expressions identify
forward-looking statements. All
forward-looking statements included in this release are made as of the date
hereof and are based on information available to SkyWest as of such date. SkyWest assumes no obligation and does not
intend to update any forward-looking statement. Actual results will vary, and
may vary materially, from those anticipated, estimated, projected or expected
for a number of reasons, including, among others: potential bankruptcy or
restructuring proceedings involving Delta, the inability or failure of SkyWest to
integrate the operations and employees of SkyWest Airlines and ASA and achieve
the anticipated synergies as a result of the acquisition; the failure to
accurately forecast acquisition-related costs; the effects of hurricanes,
tropical storms and other weather-related events, particularly in the
southeastern United States; and the challenges of competing successfully in a
highly
competitive and rapidly changing industry. Other factors that may cause
actual results to vary from SkyWest's expectations include developments
associated with fluctuations in the economy and the demand for air travel;
bankruptcy proceedings involving United Airlines, Inc.; ongoing
negotiations between SkyWest and its major partners regarding their contractual
relationships; variations in market and economic conditions; employee relations
and labor costs; rapidly escalating fuel costs; the degree and nature of
competition; SkyWest's ability to expand services in new and existing markets
and to maintain profit margins in the face of pricing pressures; aircraft deliveries
and SkyWest's ability to obtain financing; and other unanticipated
factors. Risk factors, cautionary
statements and other conditions which could cause actual results to differ from
SkyWest's current expectations are contained in SkyWest's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, including the risk factors set forth in
SkyWest's most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q. All
forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary
statement.

is hardworking, loyal employees, who always put Nationwide, P&F as well as our shareholders first. However, we believe this

thanks go to Peter Rothschild, President of Daroth and to his team. Their efforts contributed greatly to the success of this strategic

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - September 20, 2018 -
EdR (NYSE:EDR), one of the nation's largest developers, owners and managers of high-quality collegiate housing communities, today announced the completion of the previously disclosed acquisition led by funds managed by an affiliate of Greystar Real Estate Partners. The announcement follows EdR stockholders' vote to approve the merger at a meeting held September 14, 2018. The total transaction value is approximately $4.6 billion.
Pursuant to the transaction, EdR's stockholders are entitled to receive $41.50 per share in cash. As a result of the transaction, EdR's common stock ceased trading on the New York Stock Exchange effective before the market opened today.
"Not only was the sale beneficial to EdR's shareholders, but joining forces with Greystar will also benefit our residents, university partners and employees", said Randy Churchey, EdR's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors. "This transaction greatly expands Greystar's U.S. student housing portfolio and opens up even more opportunities for our current and future university partners who are looking at expanding their on-campus housing through Public-Private Partnerships (P3). The integration of EdR's on-campus experience and operating expertise with Greystar's investment platform and access to capital positions us to help even more of America's prestigious universities enhance their campus housing and achieve their student retention and success goals".
"Completing this highly strategic transaction provides us with an institutional-quality student housing platform at a scale that would be very difficult to replicate in the private market", said Bob Faith, the Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Greystar. "It also advances our long-term strategy to grow our global student housing footprint, and we look forward to leveraging our proven platform to enhance the company's performance and value. EdR boasts a deep bench of talent and we look forward to welcoming their team into the Greystar family".
EdR's student housing platform will operate under the Greystar brand and retain its leadership team and operational headquarters in Memphis, Tenn.
BofA Merrill Lynch served as exclusive financial advisor, and Morrison & Foerster LLP and Venable LLP served as legal advisors to EdR. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC served as exclusive financial advisor, and Hogan Lovells US LLP and King & Spalding served as legal advisors, to Greystar.
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. provided debt financing for the transaction.
In conjunction with the above transaction, a joint venture between an affiliate of Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. ("BREIT") and an affiliate of Greystar acquired a portfolio of 20 of the EdR communities for $1.2 billion. The off-campus communities are located adjacent to top-tier university campuses. The newly combined Greystar/EdR team will continue to manage the assets.
In addition, on September 20, 2018, Education Realty Operating Partnership, L.P. issued notices of redemption to redeem all of its outstanding 4.60% Notes due 2024. It is expected that these notes will be redeemed on October 22, 2018.

ALAMO GROUP COMPLETES
ACQUISITION OF BUSH HOG
SEGUIN, Texas, October
22, 2009 - Alamo Group Inc. (NYSE: ALG) announced that effective today it has
completed the acquisition of the majority of the assets of Bush Hog, LLC ("Bush
Hog") according to the terms and conditions which were previously announced on
September 4, 2009. As consideration for the assets acquired, the Company issued
1.7 million unregistered shares of Alamo Group Inc. common stock ($.10 par
value) and assumed certain operating liabilities, though no funded debt.
Bush Hog is the
leading manufacturer of agricultural mowing equipment in North America and has
the most recognized name in the industry. The combination of Bush Hog's
product line with Alamo Group's range of agricultural mowers marketed under the
Rhino, Schulte, Spearhead, Bomford, McConnel and Twose brands, creates the largest
manufacturer of agricultural mowers in the world.
Bush Hog had
revenues of approximately $160 million for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2008, though, due to the current economic weakness and restructuring taking
place within the business, we estimate their sales for all of 2009 will be in
the range of $110 million.
Ron Robinson, Alamo
Group's President and Chief Executive Officer commented, "This is a great opportunity
for our Company and will significantly expand our North America agricultural
footprint. While Bush Hog will continue to be run as a separate brand through
its existing sales network, we believe there are very positive operational
synergies that will result from this combination".
"The acquisition
will probably not be accretive to Alamo Group in the remainder of 2009 due to
the weak market conditions and reorganization costs that typically come with
such a transaction. But, we believe it will add to our results in 2010 and positions
us well to benefit from the eventual recovery of the market place".
