TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 05/13/16 -- TeraGo Inc. ("TeraGo" or the "Company") (TSX:TGO) (www.terago.ca), a national
provider of complete end-to-end data solutions, today announced that a definitive asset purchase agreement has been entered into,
under which TeraGo Networks Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of TeraGo will acquire the hosting business (the "Hosting Business")
currently operated and carried out by Ottawa-based AirVM Inc. The pending acquisition will bring expanded Infrastructure as a
Service (Iaas) offerings to TeraGo from locations in the United States and the United Kingdom. In addition, the Hosting Business
will bring with it additional talent by way of new employees joining the TeraGo team and a host of new customers and channel
partners that TeraGo is eager to work with.
"The Hosting Business acquisition will facilitate our growth in the IaaS cloud business and will add new international channel
partners that will enable us to further accelerate our growth, both here and abroad," says Stewart Lyons, President and CEO of
TeraGo. "This acquisition gives us some international presence, and enables us to serve European and American customers with very
competitively priced offerings due to foreign exchange rates. We are also excited to welcome the new employees to our Company who
have previously worked to successfully build and grow the Hosting Business at AirVM."
The acquisition will be funded without accessing TeraGo's existing credit facilities and therefore offers additional financial
flexibility for TeraGo to continue to pursue opportunities within its acquisition pipeline. Closing of the acquisition is expected
to occur towards the end of May, 2016.
