Christian Romandetti, Chairman, President and CEO of First Choice:

We are very pleased to be in a position to leverage our valuable real estate asset to generate capital at a net cost of only 1.23% — capital that will be used to materially strengthen our Company’s balance sheet and provide us with working capital to support our aggressive growth and acquisition initiatives. More specifically, the sale proceeds will permit First Choice to reduce the debt on our balance sheet by over $8 million and increase our current cash position by approximately $7.5 million. Moreover, the improvement to our balance sheet will allow First Choice to meet a key listing qualification (net tangible assets) for an up-listing to a national stock exchange in the near future.
