CHICAGO, Feb. 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Enable Holdings, Inc (OTC Bulletin Board: ENAB), (the "Company"), one of the leading asset recovery solution providers for products of the world's most trusted brands, with operating subsidiaries uBid, Inc., Red.Tag.com, RedTagLive!, Dibu Trading Corporation and Commerce Innovations, announced today that it completed a private placement of a $4,250,000 offering (the "Offering") of Series 1 Preferred Shares (the "Preferred Shares") funded by certain accredited and strategic investors, including its executive officers, directors and business associates (the "Investors"). Jesup & Lamont Securities Corp. acted as exclusive placement agent for this transaction. The Company will file a form 8-K with the SEC disclosing the terms of the private placement. In support of the restructuring, secured creditors agreed to reduce all or a portion of their outstanding balances and to return all warrants previously issued in exchange for Preferred Shares. As of December 31, 2009, the Company substantially completed recasting its operations to better fit its operating model by dramatically reducing fixed overhead through a number of cost cutting programs including relocating its offices and consolidating into one location. The Company has seen fixed costs decrease from $1,200,000 a month to $300,000 over the past six months. As a result the Company is a much leaner organization well positioned to capitalize on its strengths. Patrick Neville, recently appointed Chief Executive Officer, comments: "I am astonished at the amount of work that has been accomplished by the Company in a relative short period of time through very difficult economic and credit conditions. Now with all of the components of the restructuring behind us, I see a great opportunity to exploit our business model through our vastly improved balance sheet. Thank you to all of our vendors and customers who have supported us and will continue to be the beneficiary of our focused efforts to meet their needs." Steve Sjoblad, Chairman of the Board stated, "the restructuring was not painless or easy to accomplish. Many sacrifices and monetary concessions have been made by all. The Company is in effect relaunching itself under a new structure with a business model that was developed over the past two years that has not really gotten an opportunity to be fully implemented because of the lack of capital. I believe that the Company is poised to create value for all stakeholders." Mr Sjoblad further commented on the recently announced addition of two Board Members, Mr. Jeff Parell and Mr. Don Miller are both investors in the Company and provide extensive experience in turnaround situations. "The addition of these two new board members strengthens our board and the resources available to support the new business model."
