Juhl
Wind, Inc. Formed Via Merger with MH&SC Inc.
Woodstock,
MN - June 25, 2008 - Juhl Wind Inc. and MH&SC (OTCBB: JUHL.OB) announced
today that it has closed a $5,160,000 private placement concurrent with a
business combination with Juhl Energy Development Inc. and DanMar &
Associates Inc., two Minnesota-based wind power development companies under
common control that specialize in "Community Wind Farms". The combined company
will operate under the name Juhl Wind,
Inc. and
will assume and execute the Juhl Wind business plan as its sole business. Juhl
Wind shares will be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the ticker JUHL.OB.
Juhl
Wind
Inc. operates two wholly-owned subsidiaries that have been engaged in the
development of community wind power in various communities in the Midwestern
United States. Through its subsidiaries, Juhl Energy and DanMar, Juhl Wind
has
developed 11 wind farms producing approximately 117 megawatts of wind power
-
enough to power over 35,000 homes. Currently, Juhl Wind is engaged in various
aspects of development of 16 new wind farms totaling approximately 400 megawatts
of wind power. Juhl Wind's "Community Wind" differs from larger, utility owned
wind farms by sharing the majority of wind farm ownership with the actual land
owners and local communities.
Juhl
Wind, Inc. is led by Dan Juhl, a respected pioneer and acknowledged expert
of
wind power development in the U.S, having been active in the wind industry
since
the mid-1980's. As a result of the transaction, Mr. Juhl has become the
company's Chairman and CEO. "The private placement and public merger are
significant steps for the future of Juhl Wind", stated Dan Juhl. "By going
public and providing strategic growth capital, we are positioned to continue
our
leadership in the development of community wind in the Midwest and throughout
the U.S. and Canada. Our goal is to continue to build the community wind segment
of the wind power industry at a time when wind power is seeing such explosive
growth."
"We
have
had great success over the years developing Community Wind", continued Dan Juhl.
"Our projects are based on the formation of partnerships with the farmers upon
whose land the wind turbines are installed. This type of wind power has
been labeled "community wind power" because the systems are actually owned by
the farmers themselves and the local communities they serve. We are proud
to be leading the development of community wind, bringing the huge environmental
and economic benefits of wind power to the actual people that it serves".
Currently
in the United States, wind energy accounts for 6% of renewable electricity
generation and nearly 1% of total electricity supply. The United States
Department of Energy recently issued its report titled "20% Wind Energy by 2030"
(http://www1.eere.energy.gov/windandhydro/pdfs/41869.pdf)
calling
for 20% of all electricity production to be produced by wind by the year 2030.
After
the
closing of the merger and private placement, Juhl Wind Inc. had 25,160,000
shares of common stock outstanding inclusive of 5,160,000 shares of series
A
preferred stock sold in the private placement (convertible at any time into
a
like number of shares of common stock). The series A investors also received
five-year warrants to purchase up to 2,580,000 shares of our common stock at
exercise prices ranging from $1.25 to $1.75 per share. The private placement
was
led by institutional investors including Vision Opportunity Master Fund Ltd.
And
Daybreak Special Situations Fund LP. The securities sold in the private
placement and the merger have not yet been registered under the Securities
Act
of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States in
the
absence of an effective registration statement or exemption from registration
requirements. This new release shall not constitute an offer to sell, or the
solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities
in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior
to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such
state.
