NEWS RELEASE
NCS PREFERRED SHARES TRADED
Woodbridge, Ontario -February 5, 2007. National Challenge Systems Inc., a leader in the provision of vacuum truck services for the collection, treatment and disposal of non-hazardous liquid waste, today announced that a group of individuals including certain officers and directors of the Company purchased 1,123,770 of National Challenge's 3,964,823 outstanding preferred shares, from two non-related preferred shareholders.
The preferred shares have a par value of $1.00 and were sold at $0.45 per share. These shares are not publicly traded, but are redeemable at any time and convertible on or after June 1, 2007 into common shares at the option of either the Company or the preferred shareholder. The conversion into common shares is to be calculated by dividing the redemption value of the preferred shares at $1.00 per share by an amount per common share, which would be equal to the lesser of $0.40; or the average weighted market price over the 15-day period immediately prior to the date upon which conversion notice is given.
