August 15, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Health News
Vancouver, Canada, August 15, 2006 - Global Immune Technologies, Inc. (GIMU:OTCBB), is pleased to advise that it has signed a Securities Exchange Agreement (SEA) proposing a reverse merger with Primedical International Limited (PML). The combined company, to be renamed Primedical International Holdings, Inc. (Primedical), intends to be a leading provider of telemedicine and remote ambulatory monitoring services.

GIMU will acquire PMI’s ambulatory ECG monitoring business, including iCardia Healthcare Corporation, the North American cardiac monitoring service, for a combination of convertible debt and equity. Specifically, PML will receive 74 million common shares in GIMU, together with 7.4 million warrants with a purchase price of $0.50. In addition, the agreement provides for the transfer of intellectual property from Medical Monitors Limited (MML), an Australian Stock Exchange listed company, subject to ratification by MML shareholders. In further consideration, GIMU shall issue PML and MML a total of $14 million non interest bearing notes, convertible into GIMU common shares at 85% of the average closing price for the 5 business days preceding conversion, but no less than $0.40 and no greater than $1.00 per share.

Primedical plans to rapidly grow its current business in North America through its subsidiary iCardia Healthcare Corporation, and to expand into Europe and the Far East through strategic joint ventures and/or acquisition of regional monitoring service companies.

To lead the Company’s expansion into telemedicine and remote ambulatory monitoring services three new directors are joining the GIMU/Primedical board: David Stanley, current CEO of iCardia Healthcare Corporation; Harry Platt, co-inventor of the Company’s proprietary systems and innovative technology, and Avraham Perez, CPA, MBA and co-founder of a successful data analytics company in the US health insurance sector.
