Universal
Technical Institute Completes Sale and Leaseback of its Norwood Campus
PHOENIX,
October 11, 2007
-Universal
Technical Institute Inc. (NYSE: UTI),
a
provider of technical education training, today announced that it has completed
a sale leaseback transaction for its campus located in Norwood, Massachusetts.
Under
the
terms of the transaction, which closed on October 10, 2007, UTI sold the
building and land at its Norwood, Massachusetts for $33 million. The transaction
resulted in a $0.4 million gain that will be amortized over the lease term.
Concurrent with the sale transaction, UTI entered into a long term lease with
the purchaser for an initial term of 15 years with the option to extend for
up
to an additional 20 years. The transaction will not change UTI's operations or
course offerings at the Norwood campus but will enhance the company's cash
position.
As
a
result of the sale, the company will no longer be entitled to a portion of
the
Massachusetts state investment tax credit that was previously recorded.
Accordingly, additional tax expense of approximately $0.9 million or 3 cents
per
share will be recorded during the fourth quarter ended September 30, 2007.
Also
impacting earnings per share during the fourth quarter, as previously reported,
the company incurred additional costs related to reducing its workforce and
restructuring its sales function. Costs associated with these activities totaled
approximately $4.4 million or 10 cents per share.
"We
are
pleased to announce the completion of our Norwood sale leaseback transaction
which capitalized on favorable market conditions that prevailed in commercial
real estate. Finalizing this transaction results in all ten of our campuses
being leased and results in greater flexibility for our company", said Kimberly
McWaters, president and chief executive officer of UTI.

Goldleaf Provides Strategic Initiatives
Update
Sharpens Payment Focus with Announced Sale of Core and WinTeller
Systems
ATLANTA, Jan. 6, 2009
-
Goldleaf Financial Solutions Inc
. (NASDAQ:GFSI), a provider of integrated
technology-based solutions designed to improve the performance of financial
institutions, today provided an update on its strategic initiatives including
announcing that it has entered into a strategic alliance with Cedar Park,
Texas-based
Integrated Bank Technology
(IBT), a software application and support services provider for
community financial institutions to provide core, teller and outsourced item
processing to its clients. As part of
this relationship, Goldleaf sold its core processing and WinTELLER systems to
IBT.
Disposition
Activity
The
sale of its core and WinTELLER systems reflects Goldleaf's global strategy to
increase the organization's focus on leveraging its strong position in the
payments technology sector.
"Financial
institutions rely heavily on their payments business, as it generates a
significant percentage of their revenue", said Lynn Boggs, CEO of Goldleaf. "Divesting
our company of non-strategic business lines will enable Goldleaf to strengthen
its existing platforms, which are designed to allow financial institutions to
identify new revenue streams and manage their high-value payments business.
Goldleaf seamlessly integrates all payment points, providing a tremendous
benefit to financial institutions looking to consolidate payment operations,
lower transaction costs and improve efficiencies".
"Goldleaf
has a long history with the core and teller business and recognizes the
important functionality of those systems to financial institutions. However, as we continually evaluate our
market opportunities, we are confident in the decision to increase our focus on
the opportunities afforded us in the payments sector. With core and teller representing only $1.7
million of our expected 2009 revenue, we feel it is the appropriate time to
take this step", he continued.
During
2008 the company and its board engaged in a detailed review of its non-payment
business lines, and, in May 2008, the company engaged an investment
banking firm to assist in investigating the possibility of divesting RMSA.
Since that date, the company has conducted substantial discussions with
potential buyers about the possibility of divesting RMSA and other non-payment
business lines to further solidify its leading position in payments technology.
"We will carefully review opportunities to sharpen our payments focus, while
staying mindful of the value and contribution of various business lines to our
continuing operating performance", Boggs noted. "These efforts will continue to
be a high priority for the Company in 2009, as we seek additional opportunities
to enhance shareholder value and further our strategic goals".
Board
Constituency
As
a part of its ongoing assessment of the current Board constituency that began
in May 2008, the company's Board of Directors determined to seek new board
members with payment industry experience at its November board meeting.
According to Rob McCabe, chairman of Goldleaf's Board of Directors, leveraging
the expertise of additional payment executives on Goldleaf's Board will better
support the company's direction and strategic focus. "Our Board is evaluating several excellent
potential candidates with payments experience and we hope to announce the
appointment of at least one new director in the near future", McCabe said.
Bank
Financing
Goldleaf
also announced today that the maturity for its senior credit facility has been
extended to January 15, 2010. Boggs
commented, "Because of certain contractual terms of our existing subordinated
debt, we would not expect to fully renegotiate our credit facility until after
the middle of 2009. We continue to have
excellent relationships with our lending group, led by Bank of America, and
look forward to working with them later in the year on a revised credit
facility."
Acquisition Activity and Debt Repayment
As
noted previously, integration of its January 2008 Alogent acquisition and
an emphasis on operating results in a difficult economic environment were key
focus areas in 2008. In addition,
beginning in the third quarter of 2008, the Company has reduced its borrowing
under its senior credit facility by $5.0 million. "In 2009 we will continue to explore
significant opportunities to grow our payments presence through focused
acquisitions, but, in the absence of compelling
acquisitions,
we will continue to look for opportunities to further deleverage our balance
sheet through senior credit facility payments or otherwise,"
Boggs said.
Personnel
Update
Effective
January 5, 2009, Scott Meyerhoff has resigned as Goldleaf's EVP, Finance
and Strategy. Mr. Meyerhoff has agreed to remain with the company through January 31,
2009 to finalize the transition of his remaining duties to Dan Owens, Goldleaf's
CFO and EVP of Finance. Over the past
few months, Goldleaf has been reassigning and transitioning Meyerhoff's duties
to Owens and other members of the senior management team.
"Scott
has been invaluable as we have worked through numerous acquisitions and the
integration of those initiatives", stated Boggs. "When Scott let me know he was considering
transitioning to other opportunities, he was very accommodating in agreeing to
assist in smoothly transitioning his various responsibilities. Now that he has
made a decision to leave Goldleaf, I would like to personally thank him for his
integral role in the transformation of Goldleaf and wish him well in his future
endeavors".

BUCKEYE PARTNERS, L.P. ANNOUNCES ACQUISITION OF LIQUID PETROLEUM PRODUCTS TERMINALS NETWORK FROM HESS FOR $850 MILLION
HOUSTON, December 11, 2013 - Buckeye Partners, L.P. ("Buckeye") (NYSE: BPL) announced today that it has completed its purchase of 20 liquid petroleum products terminals with total storage capacity of approximately 39 million barrels for $850 million from Hess Corporation ("Hess"). The 19 domestic terminals are located primarily in major metropolitan locations along the U.S. East Coast and have approximately 29 million barrels of refined petroleum products storage capacity, including approximately 15 million barrels of capacity strategically located in New York Harbor. The terminal on St. Lucia in the Caribbean has approximately 10 million barrels of crude oil and refined petroleum products storage capacity and has deep-water access. This acquisition increases Buckeye's total liquid petroleum storage capacity by approximately 53 percent to over 110 million barrels. Hess' Retail Marketing Business will be a key customer at these facilities under a multi-year storage and throughput commitment.
"We are excited to incorporate these strategic marine terminals into Buckeye's growing portfolio of assets", said Clark C. Smith, Buckeye's President and Chief Executive Officer. "This acquisition strengthens Buckeye's presence in major markets along the East Coast and further solidifies our position in the Caribbean. In the New York Harbor, the combination of the Port Reading facility, our Perth Amboy terminal, and our Linden hub provide the opportunity to create a large, integrated network that leverages our existing pipeline connections allowing us to optimize the capabilities at each location for our customers. The acquisition also enhances our position in Upstate New York and the Mid-Atlantic and further expands our footprint into several key, high-growth markets in the Southeast. In the Caribbean, the St. Lucia terminal improves our storage capabilities and allows us to offer customers a broader set of service offerings while furthering our ability to provide logistics solutions for the growing Latin American crude oil production. As a result of this transaction, we have a tremendous opportunity to create value by further extending our integrated network of marine terminals and overlaying our business model on these complementary assets. We expect the transaction will be immediately accretive to our distributable cash flow per unit, excluding first year transition-related expenses, and should provide long-term support for further distribution growth".
Buckeye Partners, L.P. (NYSE: BPL) is a publicly traded master limited partnership that owns and operates one of the largest independent liquid petroleum products pipeline systems in the United States in terms of volumes delivered, with approximately 6,000 miles of pipeline. Buckeye also owns more than 100 liquid petroleum products terminals with aggregate storage capacity of over 110 million barrels. In addition, Buckeye operates and/or maintains third-party pipelines under agreements with major oil and chemical companies, owns a high-performance natural gas storage facility in Northern California, and markets liquid petroleum products in certain regions served by its pipeline and terminal operations. Buckeye's flagship marine terminal in The Bahamas, BORCO, is one of the largest crude oil and petroleum products storage facilities in the world, serving the international markets as a global logistics hub.

Exhibit 99.1
Safeguard
Scientifics ANNOUNCES sale of partial stake in mediamath
represents
cash-on-cash return of 4.5x
Radnor, PA, July 9, 2018
-
Safeguard Scientifics,
Inc.
(NYSE:SFE) today announced that it has completed the sale of 39.1% of Safeguard's ownership position in MediaMath
Holdings. Inc. ("MediaMath") to MediaMath for $45.0 million in cash. The repurchase represents the equivalent of an
implied cash-on-cash return of 4.5x on Safeguard's 39.1% ownership position in MediaMath, a global advertising and marketing
technology leader. In connection with the sale, MediaMath has the right to repurchase an additional 10.9% of Safeguard's
ownership position on or before the 180 day anniversary of the initial repurchase for $12.5million in cash.
"This transaction is a "win" for both parties,"
said
Brian J. Sisko
, Safeguard's President and Chief Executive Officer. "MediaMath has emerged as a leader
in the digital marketing category and we're excited to continue our partnership as they continue to build value for their
stakeholders. Meanwhile, the sale of a portion of Safeguard's MediaMath position is consistent with Safeguard's new
business strategy of pursuing monetization opportunities, produces a significant cash-on-cash return, strengthens our balance
sheet, enhances Safeguard's financial flexibility going forward and allows us to continue to participate in the future growth
of MediaMath in a significant way. If MediaMath exercises the option to repurchase the additional 10.9% of Safeguard's ownership
stake, we will have realized $57.5 million for 50% of our ownership stake in MediaMath", Sisko said.
"Safeguard has been a strong partner to MediaMath,"
said Franklin Rios, Global Head of Corporate Development for MediaMath. "They share our vision and have believed that MediaMath
would rise to the top of the digital marketing category, showing commitment through multiple financing events".
In connection with the transaction, MediaMath and Safeguard
have agreed that an independent industry expert to be approved by Safeguard will hold Safeguard's seat on the MediaMath
Board of Directors to bolster MediaMath's strong Board of Directors that includes a number of industry leaders. Safeguard will
hold a board observer right as well.
Safeguard first deployed capital in MediaMath in 2007. Measured
by annual revenue, the business is the largest of Safeguard's portfolio of early-stage companies.
In January 2018, Safeguard began to implement a new business
strategy designed to increase shareholder value. Under the new strategy, Safeguard has ceased to deploy capital into new partner
companies. Safeguard remains focused on managing and financially supporting existing partner companies, with the goal of pursuing
monetization opportunities and maximizing net proceeds distributable to shareholders. Safeguard will consider the sale of individual
partner companies, the sale of certain partner company interests in secondary market transactions, or a combination thereof, as
well as other opportunities to maximize shareholder value.

herein, statements contained in this release may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Our forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking
statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Safeguard's initiatives taken or contemplated to enhance

from the monetization of Partner Companies, Safeguard's projections regarding the reduction in its ongoing operating expenses,
Safeguard's projections regarding annualized operating expenses and expected severance expenses, monetization opportunities
for Partner Company Interests, and the amount of net proceeds from the monetization of Partner Company Interests that are ultimately
distributable to Safeguard shareholders after satisfying Safeguard's debt obligations and working capital needs and the

Therefore, actual outcomes and/or results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
The risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially include, among others, our ability to make good
decisions about the monetization of our Partner Companies for maximum value or at all and distributions to our shareholders, our
ability to successfully execute on our strategy to streamline our organizational structure and align our cost structure to increase

Act of 1940, risks, disruption, costs and uncertainty caused by or related to the actions of activist shareholders, including
that if individuals are elected to our Board with a specific agenda, it may adversely affect our ability to effectively implement
our business strategy and create value for our shareholders and perceived uncertainties as to our future direction as a result
of potential changes to the composition of our Board may lead to the perception of a change in the direction of our business,
instability or a lack of continuity that may adversely affect our business, and risks associated with our Partner Companies, including
the fact that most of our Partner Companies have a limited operating history and a history of operating losses, face intense competition
and may never be profitable, the effect of economic conditions in the business sectors in which Safeguard's Partner Companies
operate, and other uncertainties described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Many of these factors are
beyond the Company's ability to predict or control. As a result of these and other factors, the Company's past operational
and financial performance should not be relied on as an indication of future performance. The Company does not assume any obligation
to update any forward-looking statements or other information contained in this press release.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
American Realty Capital Healthcare Trust Acquires
DaVita Dialysis Center in Marked Tree, AR
New York, NY, July 7, 2011
- American Realty Capital Healthcare Trust, Inc. ("ARC Healthcare" or the "Company") announced today that it has acquired a freestanding fee simple DaVita Dialysis Center located in Marked Tree, Arkansas at a purchase price of approximately $1.4 million. The acquisition closed on June 30, 2011.
The property consists of approximately 4,600 square feet of gross leasable area and is located approximately 40 miles northwest of Memphis, Tennessee. The property is 100% leased to Renal Treatment Centers - Southeast, LP. DaVita, Inc. has guaranteed the tenant's obligations under the lease. The lease has a twelve-year term and expires in October 2021. The lease provides two renewal options of five years each.
"We are very pleased to have acquired this facility which provides a critical service in the community and is operated by an affiliate of DaVita Inc., a Fortune 500 company and a national leader in renal care", said Todd Jensen, Chief Investment Officer for ARC Healthcare. "This is an attractive investment for our investors, consistent with our investment strategy and continues our timely deployment of capital raised to date".
ARC Healthcare is a publicly registered, non-traded real estate investment program that has commenced its initial public offering of up to 150.0 million shares of common stock, at a purchase price of $10 per share, for an aggregate offering amount of up to $1.5 billion. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the offering to acquire income-producing, medical facilities located throughout the United States. The Company is offering the shares of common stock on a reasonable "best efforts" basis through its affiliate, Realty Capital Securities, LLC, the dealer manager of the offering.
A registration statement relating to the offering of these securities has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and declared effective. The offering will be made only by means of a prospectus. Copies of the prospectus for the offering may be obtained by contacting: Realty Capital Securities, LLC, Three Copley Place, Suite 3300, Boston, MA 02116,
Tel:1-877-373-3522
.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
This press release may contain forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results and trends could differ materially from those set forth in such statements due to the following risks: The failure to qualify or maintain the requirements to be taxed as a REIT would reduce the amount of income available for distribution and limit the Company's ability to make distributions to its stockholders. No public market initially exists for the Company's shares of common stock, and one may never exist for this or any other such type of real estate program. Securities are being offered on a best efforts basis. These are speculative securities and as such involve a high degree of risk. There are substantial conflicts among an offering and its sponsor, advisor, dealer manager and property manager. There is no assurance that the value of the real estate will be sufficient to return any portion of investors' original capital. Operating results will be affected by economic and regulatory changes that have an adverse impact on the real estate market and we cannot assure you that there will be growth in the value of the properties.
