This purchase price represents a 60% premium over the closing price of the Dynetek Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") on July 30, 2012 and a 149% premium over the volume-weighted average trading price of the Dynetek Shares on the TSX for the 20 trading days ending July 30 , 2012.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP acted as Dynetek's financial adviser and provided its opinion that, as at July 26, 2012 , the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the shareholders of Dynetek.
The Arrangement Agreement includes customary representations and warranties of each party, non-solicitation covenants by Dynetek, right-to-match provisions in favour of Luxfer and provides for a non-completion fee of $500,000 to be paid by Dynetek to Luxfer if the transaction is not completed under certain circumstances. The transaction will be completed pursuant to a statutory plan of arrangement in accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the "ABCA"). The Arrangement is subject to the approval of the Alberta Court of Queen's bench under the ABCA, the affirmative vote of 66?% of the votes to be cast by shareholders, present in person or by proxy, at the Meeting of shareholders to be held to approve the Arrangement, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals, and certain other closing conditions that are customary for a transaction of this nature. An information circular regarding the Arrangement is expected to be mailed to shareholders in mid August 2012 , with the Meeting scheduled to be held in mid September 2012 and closing shortly thereafter.
