			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>La Défense, France, May 24, 2011 – </b><b>BSR Group, a </b>global provider of high performance solutions for coating, sealing, damping and bonding in industrial applications, is <b>announcing its acquisition of AXSON, a global leader in the formulation and fabrication of epoxy resins and polyurethanes systems. BSR Group, a holding company owning REVOCOAT and BS COATINGS, will acquire all AXSON TECHNOLOGIES shares. Once the transaction is completed, BSR Group will hold 100 percent of the capital and voting rights of AXSON TECHNOLOGIES and its subsidiaries</b>. 
The sale agreement between the shareholders of AXSON TECHNOLOGIES, including financial investors OFI Private Equity, IDI MEZZANINE and CAPZANINE, was signed on May 10, 2011 with a view to closing the transaction, once all administrative formalities have been complied with, by June&nbsp;30, 2011. <b>The financial details of the transaction remain confidential at this stage. </b> 
AXSON&nbsp;is a major global leader in the formulation and fabrication of polyurethane and epoxy resins systems in the field of advanced materials applied to design, tooling and prototyping, composites, structural adhesives and encapsulation resins for the electronic and electric industries.
 With its 12 subsidiaries, 6 research and production centres and its vast network of exclusive distributors, AXSON supports its customers, most of them in high-tech industries (automotive, aeronautics, renewable energies, public transport, robotics), with solutions for all their global markets.
For the financial year ending December 31, 2010, AXSON recorded sales of €55.3m.
 AXSON will retain its brand name and will become the third business unit of BSR&nbsp;Group. Its chairman, Charles CHURET, will take over as AXSON CEO while Lionel PUGET, AXSON’s current chairman, will stay on during the transition and be more specifically in charge of integrating the different networks as well as overseeing organisation synergies.
<b><i>&quot;BSR 	Group wishes to ensure continuity. This objective means first and 	foremost maintaining AXSON’s management team, brand name and 	identity,”</i></b><b> 	Charles CHURET explained.  </b> 	 	
 	<b>The 	transaction will create the ideal conditions for optimisation both 	in terms of products and geography</b><i>.&nbsp;</i><b><i> 	“With increasingly global clients and markets, this acquisition 	will generate real opportunities for the whole group”,</i></b><b> 	he added.</b> 	
<b>The 	acquisition marks a new phase in the growth of BSR Group and in the 	implementation of its industrial project. </b><i>“This 	alliance will provide our group with a better balance and more 	diversity in the distribution of BSR Group’s participation by 	industry, market, and customer type, with diverse business dynamics, 	making the Company less sensitive to business cycles. The alliance 	will strengthen the group’s existing structures in emerging 	markets allowing to fully tap the growth and expansion potential of 	BSR Group’s three business units”, </i>Charles 	CHURET concluded.
“<i>The 	entire management team at AXSON TECHNOLOGIES is convinced that our 	broad experience of international competition as well as the quality 	and diversity of talents in our organisation will be crucial for the 	new BSR Group as it breaks into new markets. AXSON’s recent 	successes in the advanced technologies markets in emerging countries 	show that its business model is adapted to today’s industrial 	world and prove that BSR Group made the right choice with this 	acquisition”, Lionel PUGET added.</i> 	
 	The 	sellers’ counsels are PwC Corporate Finance (Noel Albertus, 	Geoffroy Pacault) and Wragge &amp; Co (Jérôme Patenotte, 	Marie-Anne Fabre). Legal advice for IDI Mezzanine is provided by 	Squire Sanders Hammonds (Nacime Tobni). BSR Group is advised by 	Hogan Lovells (Xenia Legendre).
