Granahan McCourt Acquisition
Corporation (the Company) today held its Special Meeting of Stockholders to
vote on the proposed merger with Pro Brand International, Inc. At the
Special Meeting, the merger proposal was not approved by the Companys
stockholders. As a result, and pursuant to its charter and the terms of its
initial public offering, the Company expects that the amounts held in its trust
account, together with interest (net of applicable taxes)
and including the deferred portion of the underwriters discount held in
the trust account following the consummation of the Companys initial public
offering, will be returned to the Companys public stockholders. No payments
will be made in respect of the Companys outstanding warrants or to any of its
initial stockholders with respect to the shares owned by them and issued prior
to the initial public offering. The Company intends to prepare and mail to its
stockholders a proxy statement seeking approval to effect the distribution of
funds from the trust account. The
Company will proceed to distribute the funds and stockholders will not need to
tender their shares of stock to the transfer agent until the dissolution plan
is approved by the Company and its stockholders.
A copy of the Companys
press release dated October 21, 2008 is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
