Mr. Gray further stated, "We would like to thank the management of Pure for their diligent efforts to bring this transaction to this stage. While we still have to undertake several steps to conclude the transaction, we remain confident that this transaction should close before the end of 2010."
Larry Risley, President of Pure added that, "We are excited about the opportunity that the combination with Doral brings and believe that this transaction will allow the combined company to exploit the value of Pure's and Doral's interests.
