HOUSTON, Feb. 13, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Emerge Capital Corp. (OTCBB:EMGC) announced today the signing of a new contract with Power Technology, Inc. (OTCBB:PWTC) for advisory services. This is the third advisory services agreement for Power Technology, led by Tim Connolly, CEO of Emerge Capital Corp. and its operating subsidiary, Corporate Strategies, Inc. Bernard J. Walter, CEO of Power Technology, stated, "We have come to rely on Corporate Strategies for their sound judgment, experience, and advice. We look forward to a continuing successful relationship."
Emerge Capital Corp. provides business restructuring, turnaround management, and advisory services for emerging and re-emerging public and private companies through its wholly owned operating subsidiary, Corporate Strategies, Inc. (CSI). CSI helps micro-cap public companies accelerate growth, provides working capital strategies, funding alternatives and in select cases, makes direct investments in our client companies. CSI markets its turnaround services to hedge funds, institutional investors, and banks that have significant exposure in troubled micro-cap public companies. Typically, these companies are in operational or financial difficulty, may be in default of lending or equity agreements, and may be facing bankruptcy or liquidation if their operations are not turned around. CSI is compensated with cash payments on a monthly or quarterly basis, and the most significant part of our compensation is in outright grants of equity in the form of common stock, and/or warrants for purchasing common stock. We believe this compensation plan provides us with an opportunity to achieve venture capital like returns on our equity participation, and aligns our interests with the client company and its shareholders because our ultimate compensation is determined by successfully increasing shareholder value. This performance-based arrangement clearly demonstrates that our interests are consistent with the goals of our clients, their shareholders, and the shareholders of Emerge Capital Corp.
