NEXUS MANAGEMENT PLC
('Nexus Management' or the "Company")
Co-operation Agreement, Issue of Equity and Resilience Trading Update
Co-operation Agreement
The Company is pleased to announce that Resilience Technology Corporation
("RTC"), its wholly owned subsidiary, has entered into a co-operation agreement
with VPEP Technology Corporation ("VPEP"), the previous owner of RTC and a
provider of resource virtualisation and optimisation software.
The terms of the agreement will provide that RTC and VPEP co-operate in
delivering new virtualisation security appliances, utilising VPEP technology on
RTC hardware to provide robust appliances.
In conjunction with this agreement, RTC and VPEP will collaborate on product
launches - the first of which being "VPEP for Squid Proxy Server", a device to
optimise web delivery and "VPEP for Snort Intrusion Detection", a network
intrusion detection and prevention system. RTC has been selected as the primary
reseller for these two product launches.
To date, RPC and VPEP have been co-operating, on an informal basis, to create
Websense Web Security appliances, which combine VPEP's high-performance secure
operating environment with RTC's range of highly reliable network security
appliances.
Paul White, CEO of VPEP, said: "We are expecting the co-operation agreement
with RTC to produce a significant distribution channel for our products during
the coming twelve months."
Sean Scott, CEO of RTC, commented: "RTC and VPEP have recently completed a
joint training programme involving the implementation team of one of the
world's largest MSSP (Managed Security Service Provider) and ISP. I believe
this will lead to immediate growth opportunities for both companies."
Issue of Equity
The Company announces that it has today issued 1,875,984 new ordinary shares at
a price of 0.837p per share to satisfy approximately GBP16,000 of the debt owed
to the vendors of RTC.
The shares are being issued as part of the re-negotiated convertible loan note
terms which were announced in May 2009. On the instructions of the RTC vendors
these shares will be issued directly to VPEP to discharge their corresponding
liability to VPEP.
In addition, it has also issued 6,482,863 new ordinary shares at the same price
to staff members of which 3,192,569 shares have been issued in lieu of payments
due to certain of those employees. The net proceeds of the issue, which amount
to approximately GBP28,000, will be used for general working capital.
Application has been made for the 8,358,847 new ordinary shares to be admitted
to trading on AIM. Admission of the shares is expected to become effective and
dealings are expected to commence on AIM on 29 October 2009. Following the
issue of these shares, the Company will have 988,463,878 ordinary shares in
issue
