"The partnership we are establishing with the City of Noblesville is a considerable one and a long-term strategic investment we are both fully committed to. With the commencement of this project, Positrona™s business objectives are being realized as designed."

On June 10, 2011, Positron announced it had entered into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the City of Noblesville, signifying its intention to relocate its corporate headquarters, research & development and product manufacturing facilities to Noblesville. Included in the MOU were economic incentives for the development of the Companya™s cyclotron project.

Under the terms of the resolution, the City of Noblesville will provide Positron with certain incentives, in the amount of up to $6.7 million, for the acquisition of economic development property. The $6.7 million will come in the form of Economic Development Bonds, which utilizes tax increment from the project. The bonds will be issued in several series commensurate with Positrona™s achievement of certain milestones in conjunction with the Companya™s securing commitments of financing totaling $42 million. The City also agrees to support the project by pursuing the issuance of tax exempt Midwestern Disaster Area Bonds, which are non-recourse to the City, including but not limited to, supporting Positron in the designation of the Positron project site as a designated Midwestern Disaster Area by the Governor of Indiana.

With the commencement of this project, Positrona™s business objectives are being realized as designed.a Rooney concluded akey initiatives in our approach have been focused towards our ability to offer radiopharmaceutical consumables to customers in both the cardiac PET and SPECT markets; a critical component for our expansion, strength and long-term strategy was to secure a supply of isotopes. The addition of a company owned cyclotron allows Positron to expand vertically with the ability to offer products and security that our full cardiac imaging and radiopharmaceutical solutions will be available to our customers for the future.a
