VANCOUVER, Sept. 13, 2013 /CNW/ - Radiant Communications Corp. ("Radiant") (TSX-V: RCN) is pleased to announce that it has filed its meeting materials on SEDAR, including a management information circular of Radiant dated September 11, 2013 (the "Circular"), in connection with its previously announced going-private transaction (the "Transaction"). Pursuant to the Transaction, 8612536 Canada Inc. (the "Purchaser"), an affiliated entity of Comwave Networks Inc., will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Radiant ("Common Shares") that the Purchaser and its affiliates do not already own for cash consideration of $1.43 per Common Share by way of a plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement"). The mailing of the meeting materials to Radiant shareholders and optionholders will begin on September 16, 2013.

The Arrangement will be considered by Radiant shareholders and optionholders at a special meeting scheduled to be held at the offices of McMillan LLP, Suite 1500 - 1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia on October 11, 2013 at 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) (the "Meeting"). The record date for the Meeting is September 6, 2013.

The Circular contains, among other things, details concerning the Arrangement, the requirements for the Arrangement to become effective, the procedure for receiving payment for Common Shares, voting at the Meeting and other related matters. Shareholders and optionholders are urged to carefully review the Circular and accompanying materials as they contain important information regarding the Arrangement and its consequences to shareholders and optionholders.

On September 10, 2013, Radiant obtained an interim order of the Supreme Court of British Columbia to authorize the shareholder and optionholder meeting process in connection with the Arrangement. The Arrangement is subject to, among other things, the approval of: (i) not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by Radiant shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting; and (ii) not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by Radiant shareholders and optionholders, voting together as one class, present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting. Assuming that the Arrangement is approved at the Meeting, Radiant is currently scheduled to return to court on October 16, 2013 to seek a final order to implement the Arrangement.

The closing of the Arrangement is subject to the satisfaction of certain other closing conditions customary in a transaction of this nature. Assuming that these conditions are satisfied, it is expected that the closing of the Arrangement will be completed prior to the end of October 2013.

Copies of the meeting materials and certain related documents are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
