Texada Software Inc. (TSX VENTURE:TXS) ("Texada" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce that the Company's wholly owned U.S. subsidiary Noble Rents, Inc.
("Noble Rents"), has had a term sheet approved by an established U.S. lender's
credit committee (the "Lender Financing") to recapitalize its existing debt. The
anticipated closing date to complete the financing is May 31, 2012. Noble Rents'
initial entry into the U.S. equipment rental business took place in August 2011
with the acquisition of Rolls High Reach. The business operates from four
locations in Southern California with 50 employees and over 1,100 pieces of
aerial, forklift and light compact equipment rental units. 


The terms of the recapitalization move acquisition and growth related rental
fleet financing from existing term loan arrangements with interest rates ranging
from 5.8% to 7.0% to one, comprehensive four year revolving line of credit.
Interest payments will be based on a variable interest rate calculated at the
one month LIBOR rate plus 325 basis points, currently 3.50%. The new facility
will operate with a daily cash sweep against outstanding debt with no scheduled
principal payments during the term of the loan. Texada Software Inc. will
provide a guarantee of all amounts owing by Noble Rents under the facility.


The amount of debt to be refinanced is estimated to be $13.2 Ml. U.S., comprised
of $9.1 Ml. U.S. remaining on the original acquisition debt funded in August
2011 and $4.1 Ml. U.S. from additional fleet purchases financed since that date.
Noble Rents has no other debt facilities presently outstanding.


"At a minimum, this new financing arrangement will net significant annual
positive cash flow at current interest rates, based upon our existing debt
outstanding," said Willie Swisher, Texada's CEO. He continued "having this
flexible financing structure in place offers Noble Rents growth ability through
its borrowing base, allowing us to strategically add fleet as needed, while
knowing we have a strong U.S. based banking relationship in place that supports
our vision, organization and team." 


Under the terms of the Lender Financing, Noble Rents can borrow up to $25.0 Ml.
U.S. based upon its borrowing base, determined by the value of its rental fleet,
accounts receivable and inventory.
