(CRL) ("OTC/BB":CRLI) announced today that it has finalized its acquisition of Orban from Harman International Industries, Inc. CRL and Orban will continue to operate from their current facilities and keep their separate brand identities but will operate together as the publicly traded company, Circuit Research Labs, Inc. CRL, located in Tempe, Arizona, with 12 employees and OVER $1 million in annual sales, produces and markets high- quality electronic audio processing, transmission encoding, and noise reduction equipment for the radio, television and pro audio markets. The Company was founded in 1974 by Gary Clarkson and the late Ron Jones. Clarkson sold his majority interest in CRL to Brentlinger in July 1999. Orban, located in San Leandro, California with 75 employees and sales of $15M is known worldwide for its standard- setting line of OPTIMOD digital audio processors and also manufactures the Audicy digital audio workstation. Orban was founded in 1970 and was privately held by Robert Orban and the late John Delantoni. It was sold in 1989 to the U.S. division of AKG Acoustics, which was acquired by Harman International in 1994. The purchase price was $10.5 million, $2 million of which was paid in cash, the balance a combination of short term and long term seller financing. The purchase price was determined by arms length negotiations. The $2 million cash was comprised of $598,386 cash from Circuit Research Labs, $965,800 raised through a private placement of Circuit Research Labs, Inc. stock, $150,000 in stock options exercised by Charles Jayson Brentlinger, and $323,814 through a mortgage on Circuit Research Labs, Inc. Tempe, Arizona office building. The debt consists of a $3.5M short term note to Harman International Industries, Inc. and a $5M long term note to Harman International Industries, Inc. All required financial statements and exhibits shall be 2 3 furnished in an amendment within 60 days in accordance with the provisions of Item 601 of Regulation S-K. This Form 8K contains "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Management's anticipation of future events is based upon assumptions regarding levels of competition, research and development results, raw material markets, the markets in which the Company operates, and stability of the regulatory environment. Any of these assumptions could prove inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that the forward-looking information will prove to be accurate. Attached as exhibits are copies of the documents by which the acquisition of the assets of Orban, Inc., was concluded. The acquisition documents included a promissory note, denominated the "Tranche B Note" for $3,500,000 which was payable in full on September 30, 2000.
