("Lynnwood") (TSX VENTURE:LCI.P), a capital pool company as defined under Policy 2.4 of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), is pleased to announce that it is making progress on preparing the initial submission to the Exchange in connection with its acquisition of 100% of the common shares of Tantalex Corporation ("Tantalex"), previously announced on May 9, 2012 and June 9, 2012. The acquisition will result in a reverse takeover of Lynnwood by Tantalex and is intended to constitute Lynnwood's qualifying transaction ("Qualifying Transaction") under Policy 2.4 of the Exchange.

The Exchange has given Lynnwood until October 4, 2012 (90 days) to complete a Qualifying Transaction. Lynnwood and Tantalex have every reason to believe and are confident they will complete their Qualifying Transaction within that time.
