Founded in 1849, Nashua, with annual revenues of $265 million in 2008, is one of the industry's highly regarded manufacturers and converters of label and specialty paper products with 650 employees and manufacturing facilities in California, Nebraska, New Hampshire and Tennessee.

Nashua's Specialty Paper Products Division is a leading manufacturer / converter of point-of-sale receipt paper (used in retail, gaming and package identification applications), coated thermal papers (used to manufacturer thermal label products) and printable, wide-format media (including the Dietzgen brand name).
The agreement has been approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies and is expected to close during the summer. The acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval of Nashua's shareholders.
Under the terms of the definitive merger agreement, each share of common stock of Nashua will be converted into the right to receive (i) $0.75 per share in cash and (ii) $6.13 per share in Cenveo common stock, provided that in no event will a Nashua share be exchanged for less than 1.168 of a Cenveo share or more than 1.635 of a Cenveo share. Based on the closing price of Cenveo's common stock on May 6, 2009, the last trading day prior to the announcement, the total consideration is valued at $6.88 per Nashua share, with an implied consideration mix of approximately 89% in stock and 11% in cash. Upon completion of the transaction, it is anticipated that Nashua's shareholders will own approximately 11% of the combined company. Cenveo has also entered into a Voting Agreement with certain members of Nashua's directors and executive officers, including Tom Brooker, Nashua's CEO and President, as well as with Newcastle Partners, L.P., a major Nashua shareholder.

Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, they have, among other things, agreed to vote in favor of the transaction with Cenveo.
Robert G. Burton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Cenveo, stated:
"The acquisition of Nashua brings together two of the nation's most respected printers to strengthen our label platform and expand our product offerings. Nashua's operations both strategically mirror and complement Cenveo's product line and will create immediate cross-selling opportunities for both companies' customers. The acquisition of Nashua, with its storied history and strategic niche product offerings, is an example of how we intend to grow our company by acquiring leaders in high growth sectors of the printing industry. We expect this acquisition to be accretive to earnings."
Thomas G. Brooker, Nashua's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated:
"By becoming a part of the third largest graphic communications company in North America, Nashua is better positioned to reach the next level of performance and market share growth in the attractive niche markets we serve.

May 7, 2009 -- Universal Detection Technology (OTCBB: UNDT), a developer of early-warning monitoring technologies to protect people from bioterrorism and other infectious health threats and provider of counter-terrorism consulting and training services, reported today that it has entered into a partnership agreement with Precision Sensors Instrumentation (PSI), a leading developer of passive zone security sensors. As part of the agreement, UNDT plans to market the sensors in the United States.
PSI has adapted one of the most sensitive seismic sensors available today and has adapted it into an ultra-sensitive position sensor. The sensor remotely detects intruders into a security zone by detecting the unique seismic signature they produce either on foot or by vehicles. The sensor is also designed to be totally passive and undetectable and can function without the need of line of sign visibility. The sensor can optimally be used for border protection or the physical security of a perimeter such as an army base or a port.
In 2006, aerospace and defense giant Boeing Co. won a multibillion-dollar contract to revamp how the United States guards about 6,000 miles of border in an attempt to curb illegal immigration. Boeing's proposal relies heavily on a network of 1,800 towers, most of which would need to be erected along the borders with Mexico and Canada. Each tower would be equipped with a variety of sensors, including cameras and heat and motion detectors. The company's efforts would be the basis of the government's latest attempt to control U.S. borders after a series of failures. The contract, part of the Secure Border Initiative and known as SBInet, will again test the ability of technology to solve a problem that lawmakers have called a critical national security concern. This time, the private sector is being given an unusually large say in how to do it.
"Our partnership with PSI gives us the opportunity to expand our product line and offer one the most sensitive zone security systems on the market today," said Mr. Jacques Tizabi, UNDT's Chief Executive Officer. "We plan to take advantage of opportunities offered by the Secure Border Initiative as well as marketing the sensor to the private sector," he added.

(NASDAQ: VNDA) ("Vanda" or the "Company") announced today that Tang Capital Partners, LP ("TCP") has ended its proxy contest by withdrawing its nominations of director candidates for election to Vanda's Board of Directors and its stockholder proposal to liquidate the Company.
