SCOTTSDALE, AZ and CALGARY, AB, Nov. 13,
2014 /PRNewswire/ - RDX Technologies Corporation
("RDX" or the "Company") (TSXV: RDX, OTCQX: RGDEF, FSE:RL7), a
water treatment and energy technology company, today announces the
formation of a new U.S. based corporation, managerial
promotions, and that Hank Habicht
will join the Company as advisor to the Board of Directors.
RDX has started the process of forming a separate corporation
and completing the necessary legal filings to begin trading in
the United States ("U.S. Trading
Entity"). The new U.S. Trading Entity will be based solely in
the United States to attract
primary contracts in the water treatment and energy sectors that
cannot be successfully financed within RDX Technologies Corporation
which is based and traded on the Toronto Venture Exchange. The new
U.S. based entity will grant proportional shares to all current
Company shareholders under a new capital structure plan ("Plan")
now being completed at the Company's corporate headquarters in
Scottsdale, Arizona. The Plan will
be presented on the RDX Technologies Corporation website on
December 2, 2014.
The purpose of the U.S. Trading Entity is to directly list on a
stock exchange in the United
States in order to comply with U.S. securities laws as well
as open financial participation to the larger market and investor
pool, including larger institutional investors, based in the U.S.,
while increasing shareholder value for all current shareholders of
RDX Technologies Corporation.
In addition, the Company announces two financial management
promotions. Kevin Bridges has been
named Chief Financial Officer for the new U.S. Trading Entity. Mr.
Bridges has resigned his position as CFO of RDX. Mr. Bridges' new
role will include forming, structuring and holding senior charge of
all financial and legal filings required for the new U.S. Trading
Entity that is targeted to begin trading late in the first calendar
quarter of 2015. Mr. Bridges' new expanded role will also include
the formation and development of RDX Europe beginning in December
of this year.
Candy Blazar has been named Chief
Financial Officer of RDX Technologies Corporation, pending the
filing of a personal information form and approval of the exchange.
Ms. Blazar has served as Business Manager / Controller of RDX
refinery operations and has been with the Company for approximately
two and a half years. Ms. Blazar originally held the position of
Controller at the Carthage refinery. Candy will be relocating to
Scottsdale, Arizona. Ms. Blazar
holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Missouri
Southern State University, and a Master of Business Administration,
Missouri State University. Ms. Blazar has extensive accounting and
controller experience, holding senior positions in engineering,
refining and manufacturing companies.
RDX is also proud to announce the addition of Hank Habicht as advisor to the Board of
Directors starting December
1st, 2014.

environmental business and government policy and a successful

Department of Justice as Assistant Attorney General of the United States, in charge of the

and other divisions of Safety-Kleen, a billion-dollar environmental
service company. He has also held positions and started ventures in
the for-profit environmental arena, including VP of William D.

with the esteemed Total Quality Leadership Award and in 2009 he
received the national Richard Mellon

Honors from Princeton University and a
J.D. from the University of

Hank Habicht commented, "I can
see that RDX is developing a strong value proposition related to
both the water and energy markets. I am excited for the chance to
help Dennis Danzik and his team
deploy RDX technology solutions for maximum impact."
Dennis M. Danzik, RDX CEO stated,
"After almost six months of rebuilding RDX refinery structures and
investing in expanded manufacturing capabilities, RDX will now
enter a phase where revenue growth can be accelerated. The Company
is also expecting its fuel blending license to be issued within the
next several days, allowing RDX to enter the transportation fuel
market. In addition, the Company will be actively recruiting board
candidates for it's new structure. Once the Plan is approved, the
business can seek investor support in a much larger marketplace and
on an exchange that better fits the business model of RDX."
