On August 25, 2010, Copernic and N. Harris Computer Corporation ("Harris") jointly announced that they had entered into an arrangement agreement with Comamtech Inc. ("Comamtech"), a newly incorporated corporation, with respect to an arrangement pursuant to which Copernic will ultimately be acquired and taken private by Harris and current shareholders of Copernic will become shareholders of Comamtech, which shall retain certain non-operating assets of Copernic.

The Special Meeting to approve the Plan of Arrangement will be held at 10:00 a.m. (EDT) on October 25, 2010, at the offices of Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, in boardroom number 5, at 800 Place Victoria, 37th Floor, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, H4Z 1E9. The record date for determining the holders of common shares of Copernic that will be entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Special Meeting is September 25, 2010. The special resolution approving the Plan of Arrangement must be approved by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by shareholders represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting. Copernic's board of directors has unanimously recommended that holders of Copernic common shares vote in favour of the Plan of Arrangement.
