Code Rebel and Aegis Identity Announce Definitive Merger and Joint Operations

NEW YORK, NY — (Marketwired) — 03/14/16 — Code Rebel Corp. (NASDAQ: CDRB), an enterprise software development firm that licenses its proprietary software solution to enable simplified secure access and communications between PC and Mac environments on virtually any computer, tablet, or smartphone (“Code Rebel”), today announced it entered into a definitive Merger Agreement on March 11, 2016 with Aegis Identity Software, Inc, a Delaware corporation (“Aegis Identity”). Code Rebel and Aegis Identity have also entered into a Joint Operating Agreement to better realize the potential of both businesses for the benefit of each company and the post-closing combined entity in advance of the proposed merger closing.

The transactions follow Code Rebel–s January 14th announcement of its intent to merge with Aegis Identity and to enter the Identity and Access Management (“IAM”) market ().

Code Rebel–s Chief Executive Officer and Founder, Arben Kryeziu, commented, “We–re extremely excited about and look forward to merging with Aegis Identity, a leading provider in education-focused Identity and Access Management solutions for higher-education institutions across the U.S. We have entered into a joint operating agreement to allow us to begin thinking and acting as a single unit so that we capitalize on current and future cross marketing and licensing opportunities in our respective markets.”

Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. delivered a fairness opinion to the Board of Directors of Code Rebel in connection with the merger.

Recent industry research suggests there is a significant and growing market opportunity for Identity and Access Management products. Aegis Identity is a leading education-focused IAM solution provider, currently managing identities comprised of students and their families, faculty, alumni, and employees of schools that use IAM products.

IDC recently issued a on the worldwide identity and access management market, which noted revenues of $4.8 billion in 2013, up from $4.5 billion in 2012. According to Pete Lindstrom, IDC–s research director for Identity and Access Management, “We anticipate that the overall market will increase to $7.1 billion in 2018. Market drivers include the convergence of mobility, social networking, and big data analytics and an increasing demand for cloud and SaaS delivery of traditional IT software and services.”

Mr. Kryeziu continued, “Leading Identity Management researchers agree that there is little doubt that the deployment and implementation of IAM solutions are or should be a top priority among higher education institutions. IAM solutions, like Aegis Identity–s enterprise software, enable personalized, secure and auditable access to networks, systems and data, all necessary for efficient functioning of these institutions. Although Aegis Identity is currently focusing on higher education, the larger global identity and access management market is of interest to us as well and will be explored as the market continues to evolve.”

Aegis Identity–s CEO, Bob Lamvik, commented, “This merger gives our teams a great sense of accomplishment and excitement. We continue to work alongside Code Rebel to develop our post-merger operating plan that includes cross-marketing our products and services so that we can hit the ground running.”
