  TORONTO, ONTARIO, May 11 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Nanotech Sciences Corp. ("Nanotech") (TSX VENTURE: NAN.P) is pleased to
announce that it entered into an agreement with Courtland Capital Corp.
("Courtland") on May 8, 2009 (the "Agreement"), in respect of a proposed
"qualifying transaction" for the purposes of the policies of the TSX
Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").

    Under the Agreement it is proposed that Nanotech, a capital pool company
listed on the Exchange, will subscribe for a minimum of 3,000,000 units
(the "Units") of Courtland at a price of $0.10 per Unit or $300,000 in
the aggregate (the "Proposed Transaction"). Each Unit shall consist of
one common share in the capital of Courtland (a "Common Share") and three
quarters (3/4) of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant a
"Warrant") of Courtland. Each Warrant shall entitle the holder to acquire
one additional Common Share at an exercise price of $0.20 per Common
Share, at any time on or before the close of business on the date that is
two years from the closing date of the Proposed Transaction.

    Nanotech has also agreed, under the terms of the Agreement, to advance
$25,000 (the "Advance") to Courtland to cover transactional expenses
pending completion of the Proposed Transaction. The Advance is repayable
under certain circumstances if the Proposed Transaction is not completed.

    Following closing of the Proposed Transaction, Nanotech intends to delist
from the Exchange, commence winding up proceedings, and distribute the
Units to its shareholders on a pro rata basis. Units of Courtland
distributed to current holders of escrowed shares of Nanotech will be
subject to the same escrow provisions as their current shares of Nanotech.

    Courtland is a capital pool company listed on the Exchange and is in the
process of completing its own qualifying transaction with ForceLogix Inc.
("ForceLogix"). For more information with respect to Courtland and its
qualifying transaction with ForceLogix, please review the Filing
Statement dated August 29, 2008 and related press releases posted on the
