Exhibit 99.1
VASCO Strengthens Position in E-Signature and Identity Verification Markets with Acquisition of Leading Customer Onboarding Provider Dealflo
Improves competitive position of e-signature offering with end-to-end financial transaction management and consumer financial agreement automation
CHICAGO and LONDON, May 30, 2018 - VASCO Data Security, Inc. (NASDAQ: VDSI), a global leader in digital identity security, transaction security and business productivity, today announced it has acquired privately-held Dealflo for £41 million in cash. In a separate press release today, VASCO introduced its Trusted Identity (TID) platform and announced its name is changing to OneSpan.
Dealflo is a rapidly growing and leading provider of identity verification and end-to-end financial agreement automation solutions. Its flexible workflow management system automates the full lifecycle of customer onboarding by providing a flexible and automated application process, integration of third- party identity verification services, tailored and configurable contract generation, e-signature capture and secure vaulting. Dealflo has achieved significant success in providing onboarding solutions to the consumer and asset financing sectors primarily in the U.K.
"The combination of two leading providers of solutions for agreement automation creates a strong offering for customer onboarding", said Aite Group's Retail Banking and Payments Research Director, Julie Conroy. "Financial institutions in particular have a growing demand for onboarding automation solutions and coming from OneSpan, a leading provider in the financial services industry, this will make for a very compelling offering in the market".
Dealflo's agreement automation platform provides a flexible API that facilities the integration of multiple third party solutions for each step of the financial transaction management process. Dealflo has partnerships with leading identity verification providers Equifax, iovation (being acquired by TransUnion), Mitek, and GB Group, as well as OneSpan Sign (formerly eSignLive). OneSpan will continue to support these relationships and plans to increase the number of e-sign partnerships as it expands Dealflo's presence globally.
"This acquisition will enable us to grow our subscription revenue and Dealflo's technology will be a major differentiator for our eSignLive solution", said VASCO CEO, Scott Clements. "In addition, Dealflo's identity verification capabilities will allow us to accelerate the launch of our TID platform based onboarding, identity and anti-fraud solutions".
There are significant synergies between the companies. Dealflo is headquartered in London with its development center in Montreal, the home of OneSpan's largest development center. In addition, OneSpan Sign is already integrated into Dealflo's platform and more than half of Dealflo's customers are also OneSpan's, including leading financial institutions and organizations such as BMW, Santander, BNP Paribas and Mercedes Benz.
"The entire Dealflo team is thrilled that we are joining a leader in the financial services segment that can accelerate growth of our solution and expand into new regions where OneSpan is very well- established", stated Dealflo Founder and CEO, Abe Smith. "We have a deep history with OneSpan Sign and look forward to working together and expanding our integration into OneSpan's powerful and innovative Trusted Identity platform".
2018 Guidance Update
As a result of the transaction, OneSpan has revised its guidance for the full-year 2018 as follows:
·
Revenue is expected to be in the range of $201 million to $211 million; and
·
Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $15 million to $19 million.
Clements added, "While our revised guidance reflects the near-term financial impact of acquiring an early-stage technology platform, we see tremendous opportunity to leverage this strategic addition and deliver significant long-term revenue and EBITDA growth in the years to come".

their digital transformation. We do this by establishing trust in people's identities, the devices they use, and the transactions that shape their lives.

HOUSTON, September 16, 2014 - Buckeye Partners, L.P. ("Buckeye") (NYSE: BPL) announced today that it has completed its $860 million purchase of an 80 percent interest in Buckeye Texas Partners LLC. Buckeye Texas Partners LLC and its subsidiaries, which are owned jointly with Trafigura AG ("Trafigura"), will own and operate a vertically integrated system of midstream assets including a deep-water, high volume marine terminal located on the Corpus Christi Ship Channel, a condensate splitter and LPG storage complex in Corpus Christi and three crude oil and condensate gathering facilities in the Eagle Ford shale.

"We are excited to incorporate this unique integrated system of assets into the Buckeye portfolio", said Clark C. Smith, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "This acquisition expands our geographic and product diversity with a premier position on the U.S. Gulf Coast and in the prolific Eagle Ford shale. We are excited about our partnership with Trafigura, a global leader in international commodities trading and logistics. Once the initial phase of expansion is complete, these assets will form an integrated system with connectivity from the production in the field to the marine terminal infrastructure in Corpus Christi, creating a logistics platform with significant flexibility and optionality. In addition, 100% of the cash flows associated with these assets are supported by fee-based take-or-pay revenue commitments under 7- to 10-year commercial agreements with Trafigura. We expect this acquisition to be highly accretive to our distributable cash flow per limited partner unit beginning in 2016 and to position Buckeye for acceleration of distribution growth".
About Buckeye Partners, L.P.
Buckeye Partners, L.P. (NYSE: BPL) is a publicly traded master limited partnership and owns and operates a diversified network of integrated assets providing midstream logistic solutions, primarily consisting of the transportation, storage, and marketing of liquid petroleum products. Buckeye is one of the largest independent liquid petroleum products pipeline operators in the United States in terms of volumes delivered with approximately 6,000 miles of pipeline and more than 120 liquid petroleum products terminals with aggregate storage capacity of over 110 million barrels across our portfolio of pipelines, inland terminals, and an integrated network of marine terminals located primarily on the U.S. East Coast and in the Caribbean.

* * * * *
Distributable cash flow is a measure not defined by GAAP. Distributable cash flow is a measure used by our senior management to provide a clearer picture of Buckeye's cash available for distribution to its unitholders. Distributable cash flow eliminates (i) non-cash expenses, including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization expense resulting from the significant capital investments we make in our businesses and from intangible assets recognized in business combinations, (ii) charges for obligations expected to be settled with the issuance of equity instruments, and (iii) items that are not indicative of our core operating performance results and business outlook.
Buckeye believes that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures used by senior management and that these measures are useful to investors because they aid in comparing Buckeye's operating performance with that of other companies with similar operations. Distributable cash flow data presented by Buckeye may not be comparable to similarly titled measures at other companies because these items may be defined differently by other companies.
* * * * *
This press release includes forward-looking statements that we believe to be reasonable as of today's date. Such statements are identified by use of the words "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "expects", "intends", "plans", "predicts", "projects", "should", and similar expressions. Actual results may differ significantly because of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and that may be beyond our control. Among them are (i) changes in federal, state, local, and foreign laws or regulations to which we are subject, including those governing pipeline tariff rates and those that permit the treatment of us as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, (ii) terrorism, adverse weather conditions, including hurricanes, environmental releases, and natural disasters, (iii) changes in the marketplace for our products or services, such as increased competition, better energy efficiency, or general reductions in demand, (iv) adverse regional, national, or international economic conditions, adverse capital market conditions, and adverse political developments, (v) shutdowns or interruptions at our pipeline, terminal, and storage assets or at the source points for the products we transport, store, or sell, (vi) unanticipated capital expenditures in connection with the construction, repair, or replacement of our assets, (vii) volatility in the price of refined petroleum products and the value of natural gas storage services, (viii) nonpayment or nonperformance by our customers, (ix) our ability to integrate acquired assets with our existing assets and to realize anticipated cost savings and other efficiencies and benefits, (x) we may not realize the expected benefits of the Trafigura Transaction, (xi) our ability to successfully complete our organic growth projects and to realize the anticipated financial benefits, and (xii) an unfavorable outcome with respect to the proceedings pending before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") regarding Buckeye Pipe Line Company, L.P.'s transportation of jet fuel to the New York City airports. You should read our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, for a more extensive list of factors that could affect results.

Whitestone REIT Acquires Village Square at Dana Park for $50.5 Million
Whitestone's Portfolio in Phoenix MSA now has 12 Community Centers with over 1 Million Square Feet of GLA
Houston, Texas, September 25, 2012 - Whitestone REIT (NYSE: WSR - "Whitestone"), a fully integrated real estate company that owns, operates and re-develops Community Centered PropertiesTM, which are visibly located properties in established or developing culturally diverse neighborhoods, announced today that it has closed on the off-market purchase of Village Square at Dana Park, a 310,979 square foot Community Center located in the Mesa submarket of Phoenix, plus six developed pads (total of 2.9 acres) and the adjacent 4.7 acre parcel of development land to add another 200,000 square feet of leasable space, for $50.5 million, or $162 per square foot. The purchase price for the Center, which has in-place cash flow, was an all-cash, all-inclusive transaction, and represents a 45% discount to estimated replacement cost.
Village Square at Dana Park is an upscale open air "lifestyle" Community Center with service retail, retail, restaurants, and office mixed-use tenants spanning a total 61 acres, prominently located in Phoenix's Southeast Valley along Val Vista Drive between the Superstition Highway (Highway 60) and Baseline Road. The 71% leased Center currently houses 50 specialty boutique, dining and daily needs service tenants. The contemporary Main Street setting features expansive palm tree lined, cobblestone paved pedestrian walkways, and eight courtyard fountains with shaded seating areas. The Center was recently named the "Best Upscale Shopping Destination in Arizona" by officialbestof.com1. The tenant mix is a balance of national and small space mom and pop retail and office services targeting the local neighborhood, while drawing traffic from adjacent communities with convenient on/off access from the adjacent freeway. Over 254,000 cars per day pass by the Center, which is highly visible, with additional signage opportunities on State Route Highway 60.
The Center is comprised of 292,714 square feet of open-air retail and service shopping space, with a second-story office space venue of 18,265 square feet. Tenants occupying the Center include AJ's Fine Foods, Barnes & Noble, Z Gallerie, Anthropologie, Coldwater Creek, Jared Galleria of Jewelers, Chico's, California Pizza Kitchen, White House Black Market, Bath & Body Works, Talbots, Ann Taylor Loft, Five Guys Burgers and Fries, RA Sushi, Sauce, and Pei Wei.
"Village Square at Dana Park was acquired in an off-market transaction, and provides in-place cash flow with an upside value-add opportunity including: the lease-up of the current 89,505 square feet of built and vacant space, six pads that could be land leases or build-to-suits, and development of an adjacent land parcel fronting Superstition Highway 60 which could add another 126,000 square feet of space to the existing 310,979 total leasable area", said James C. Mastandrea, Whitestone's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Further, because Village Square at Dana Park is in close proximity to our other Mesa/Gilbert area Community Center, Gilbert Tuscany Village, we expect to benefit from some economies of scale through our in-house management and leasing team." Mastandrea added, "Because of the internal strength and experience of Whitestone's team of associates, the acquisition of
Village Square at Dana Park was accomplished at an accelerated pace from contract to execution, through due diligence to closing in 30 days".
Whitestone now owns over one million square feet of lease space in the greater Phoenix area in twelve Community Centers, strategically located in high traffic neighborhoods, including Village Park at Dana Square. The other Centers include Ahwatukee Plaza, The Citadel, Desert Canyon, Fountain Square, Gilbert Tuscany Village, MarketPlace at Central, Paradise Plaza, Pima Norte, The Pinnacle of Scottsdale, The Shops at Pinnacle Peak, and Terravita Marketplace. All purchases were off market and priced at a discount to current replacement cost and have a value-add component. Each of these Community Centers is in a stabilized neighborhood with strong demographics, and provides essential services to support local communities.
About Village Square at Dana Park
Village Square at Dana Park is located on the northwest corner Baseline Road and Val Vista Drive at Superstition Highway 60 in Mesa, Arizona, with a traffic count of over 254,000 cars per day. The tenant mix targeting urban families is typical of Whitestone's Driving Traffic/Driving ValueTM approach with a cohesive cross-referral service business base. Currently 71% leased with 50 retail and retail service tenants, the Center is co-anchored by AJ's Grocery, Barnes & Noble, and Z Gallerie.
Whitestone REIT (NYSE:WSR) acquired Village Square at Dana Park for $50 Million. The 310,979 square foot Community Center is prominently located on the northwest corner of Baseline Road and Val Vista Drive at Highway 60 (also known as "Superstition Highway") in Mesa, Arizona.

CGI Holding Corporation
closes its acquisition of PrimaryAds, a profitable and rapidlygrowing affiliate
marketing company
Company expects to meet, and
possibly exceed, its 2005 earnings guidance of $0.20 - $0.25 per share on a fully
diluted basis
NORTHBROOK, Ill.-(BUSINESS
WIRE)-April 25, 2005-In a move that will make CGI Holding Corporation d/b/a
Think Partnership Inc. (AMEX:
THK
-
News
; "Company") a major
player in the growing field of affiliate marketing, the Company today announced that it
has closed its acquisition of PrimaryAds Inc. ("PrimaryAds"). Located in North
Plainfield, New Jersey, PrimaryAds is a leading affiliate marketing network made up of
many online advertisers and publishers that focuses on the increasingly popular
cost-per-action model. Under this model, advertisers only pay PrimaryAds if a sale is made
or a lead is generated through their offers. As a result, advertisers can easily measure
their return on investment. Online publishers run these offers through the PrimaryAds
network for a portion of the fees paid by the advertisers.
As previously announced, the Company
has acquired all of the stock of PrimaryAds in exchange for approximately $10 million in
cash. The former shareholders of PrimaryAds can also earn up to $3 million in additional
cash and up to $13 million of common stock of the Company, contingent upon the aggregate
pre-tax income of PrimaryAds during the 36 months beginning July 1, 2005 achieving levels
ranging from $6.5 million to $20 million. The Company also issued to stockholders and
employees of PrimaryAds warrants to purchase a total of 146,000 shares of common stock of
the Company. The merger is expected to be immediately accretive to the earnings of CGI
Holding Corporation.
Gerard M. Jacobs, the Company's
CEO, stated, "This important acquisition justifies the size of Think
Partnership's $15.05 million private placement of common stock last December.
PrimaryAds earned $921,635 pre-tax during the first quarter of 2005, and is rapidly
growing. We expect THK to meet, and possibly exceed, our 2005 earnings guidance of $0.20
- $0.25 per share, after taxes, on a fully diluted basis. We expect that the
shareholders of PrimaryAds will earn most, if not all, of the $16 million earnout portion
of the merger consideration".
Jacobs continued, "We are
extremely impressed by Ken Harlan and his team at PrimaryAds. They are smart,
customer-oriented, and ethical. They are our kind of people. We are excited to have them
as new partners as we continue to build Think Partnership as a collaborative partnership
of profitable, entrepreneur-led companies with expertise in online advertising, marketing
and communications".
Scott Mitchell, the CEO of the
Company's Cherish subsidiary, stated, "The
addition of affiliate
marketing to Think Partnership was one of our
primary expansion targets for 2005.
The acquisition of PrimaryAds, combined with our acquisition of KowaBunga! Marketing, Inc.
on March 14, makes Think Partnership a leader in the affiliate marketing field, which
continues to be one of the fastest growing revenue sources for companies of all sizes.
We expect to announce more acquisitions during 2005 that will further expand our online
advertising and marketing presence".
Steven "Pat" Martin, the
CEO of the Company's WebSourced subsidiary, added, "PrimaryAds increases our
growing constellation of Internet marketing firms. While KowaBunga! has developed software
that allows companies to track the success of their affiliate marketing campaigns,
PrimaryAds conducts those campaigns through an extensive network that brings together
Internet publishers with Internet advertisers. Together, the two companies enable Think

ROADSHIPS HOLDINGS ACQUIRES PEOBI
TO ADD COMMUNICATIONS EFFICIENCY
Roadships Holdings, Inc. (OTC-PINK: RDSH) today announced that it has acquired the software and architecture for a mobile app that expedites the paperless exchange of business information ("PEOBI"). Created by Luke Kestle, PEOBI is in the final stages of development and has not yet been commercially distributed.
Roadships has established a dedicated IT department office at Mermaid Beach, Gold Coast, Australia and has recruited a number of Bond University graduating students to work with Mr. Kestle to complete development of PEOBI.
The transport industry is heavily reliant on the efficient flow of paperwork and communications, with a number of companies having already either adopted the use of apps or developed their own. Roadships intends to utilize PEOBI specifically for the transport industry to more efficiently facilitate the exchange of its business information.
"We have been following other local and international transport operations and seen how they have aggressively positioned IT as part of their core business operations", said Micheal Nugent, CEO of Roadships. "The acquisition of PEOBI is a first step for us to address this in our business".

OTCBB: SEGB
SE Global Stockholders Approve Acquisition with China
Interactive Marketing and Media Group to Form Sun New Media, Inc.
Sept 14
th
, 2005.
DIAMOND BAR, Calif., Sept. 14, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- SE Global Equities Corp.
(OTC BB:SEGB.OB
- News)
("SEG") reports that the company's shareholders voted on Sept. 12th in an
EGM (extraordinary general meeting) to proceed with the acquisition of all the
shares of Sun New Media Group (SNMG) from Chinese media group Sun Media
Investment Holdings Ltd (SMIH), under a share purchase agreement as previously
set-forth in a press release issued on August 10th, 2005. The transaction, when
completed, will leave SMIH and related parties as the majority owner of the
company with 86% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a
non-diluted basis and 85% on a fully diluted basis.
In accordance with the share purchase agreement, SEG will change its name to
Sun New Media, Inc. undergo a 1 share for 2 shares (1:2) reverse split, and
issue 55 million post-consolidated shares to SMIH and related parties in
exchange for 100% ownership of SNMG. SMIH will also guarantee a profit of no
less then US $3 million within the next fiscal year. Any short fall on the net
income will be assumed and compensated by SMIH.
The company will issue an announcement regarding the new trading symbol, and
the date for the reverse stock split and closing of the share purchase agreement
and related transactions upon notification by NASDAQ. SEG will then begin to
trade under its new name and on a consolidated basis on the same date under the
new symbol on the OTCBB and have the new CUSIP number 86681W 10 4.
The acquisition of SNMG brings two key sets of assets under the control of
SEG, potentially increasing value for current shareholders and diversifying
sources of income for the company. First, SNMG controls Compass Multi-Media Inc,
an innovative online interactive marketer, which targets corporate
communications, product promotion and consumer online publishing sectors in
China. Second, SNM holds the program distribution and licensing rights to all
the television programs produced and owned by SMIH and certain subsidiaries. The
program distribution rights include a number of highly popular television
programs aired in China such as Yang Lan One on One, C'est La Vie Daily, 66
Places of a Lifetime, and Olympics & Me, many of which feature leading
Chinese television personality Ms. Yang Lan.
Building from these core assets, the company will pursue a focused strategy
of becoming the leading integrated, interactive marketing and communications
company serving affluent consumers and leading corporations in China. To reflect
its new direction, the company will henceforth be known as "Sun New Media
Inc." (SNM). By providing innovative services and technologies supported by
outstanding management, SNM aims to secure a major share of the multimedia
market in China, which is expected to become the largest sector in the Chinese
economy by 2010, exceeding aggregate revenues of RMB 1500 Billion (1) (US $181
Billion).
To oversee the new company's growth strategy, the shareholders also voted to
elect as directors on close of the acquisition three associates of SMIH: Dr.
Bruno Wu; Chauncey Shey; and John Li. The management team includes prominent
serial investors and insiders from the media and IT fields in China. SNM's
Chairman Dr. Bruno Wu, is Chairman of Sun Media Investment Holdings Ltd., and
former Chairman of Sina Corporation (NasdaqNM:SINA
- News),
and former Chief Operating Officer of Hong Kong's ATV. SNM's Vice-Chairman is
Chauncey Shey, CEO and President of Softbank Venture Capital China, and
Co-Founder and former EVP of UT Starcom. SNM Director, John Li is currently the
President of Sun New Media Group and previous to that he worked for 10 years
with Framlington Funds, where he served as a senior Fund Manager and the Head of
the Asia Pacific region.
SNM Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary, Fendi Cheung has more
than 10 years experience in senior financial positions in listed companies in
the Greater China region.
SNM Chairman, Dr. Bruno Wu, commented: "We have a strategic vision of what
this company can achieve in the multimedia market in China, and the skills and
experience to achieve that goal. We thank our shareholders for their confidence
in us, and believe the company is set on the path to new levels of success".

PRESS RELEASE DATED NOVEMBER 30, 2004
Exhibit 99.01
SENTO CLOSES ACQUISITION OF XTRASOURCE
- Integration of U.S. and European operations underway -
AMERICAN FORK, Utah, November 30, 2004 - Sento Corporation (Nasdaq: SNTO), a
leading provider of integrated, multi-channel customer support, announced today
that it has completed its previously announced acquisition of the operating
assets of Xtrasource, Inc., an advanced contact solution provider. Xtrasource
has operations in Raleigh, North Carolina, Enschede, The Netherlands, and Metz,
France.
The transaction included the purchase of the assets and assumption of certain
liabilities of Xtrasource (approximately $500,000 in net liabilities, as
expected) as well as the acquisition of all the stock in its wholly-owned
European operations. In line with its plan, Sento has completed the acquisition
from a third party of the senior secured debt of Xtrasource, reached settlement
agreements with several unsecured creditors, and is using the cash and accounts
receivable (as collected) of Xtrasource to payoff the majority of the secured
and unsecured liabilities as such have been or will be renegotiated.
Patrick F. O'Neal, President and CEO of Sento, commented, "We are pleased to
have completed this important transaction and are proceeding rapidly with our
integration plan. In the U.S., we have added a significant number of staff in
the Xtrasource Raleigh contact center in response to a current Sento customer's
expansion requirements. We are already recognizing revenue and have improved
that center's capacity utilization. The Xtrasource acquisition also gives us an
established capability in Europe. I returned from my recent visit to France and
The Netherlands impressed with the people, processes and business being done
there. In addition, our senior management teams from both Europe and the U.S.
have completed an offsite planning session, which reconfirmed the similarities
of our business philosophies and cultures and identified shared objectives and
goals."
Mr. O'Neal concluded, "We have combined two companies that are highly
complementary, enhanced our staff with tenured professionals, added important
customers, and extended our global footprint. We are now energetically pursuing
opportunities for growth, synergy and exceptional customer service as Sento
builds value through this accretive transaction".
SENTO PROFILE
Sento Corporation (www.sento.com), has emerged as a leading provider of
outsourced customer care and sales support services, managing customer
relationships for a growing number of high-profile companies across multiple
industries. Through Sento's Customer Choice PlatformSM, an integrated suite of

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements in this press release, which are not purely historical, are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements encompass Sento's beliefs,
expectations, hopes or intentions regarding future events. Words such as
"expects", "intends", "believes", "anticipates", "should" and "likely" also
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 Sento as of such date. Sento assumes no obligation to update any
forward-looking statement. Actual results could differ materially from those
anticipated for a number of reasons, including, among others: difficulties
encountered in post-acquisition integration and operation of the acquired assets
including retaining existing clients of the acquired company, the Company's
stock price has historically been volatile; variations in market and economic
conditions; the effect on the Company's earnings of the repricing of options;
the Company's dependence on its limited number of key clients; reduction in
services requested by the Company's clients resulting in lower revenues for the
Company; the Company's ability to complete negotiations and execute client
agreements; risk of emergency interruption of the Customer Contact Solutions
operations; and other unanticipated factors. Risk factors, cautionary statements
and other conditions, which could cause actual results to differ from the
Company's current expectations, are contained in the Company's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB, as amended.
