Permanent Technologies Inc. President Issues an Open Letter to Shareholders to Regarding Recent Developments and Direction in 2016

Permanent Technologies Inc. (OTC: PERT) Has Been Active Over the Past Year in Pursuing New High-Volume Commercial and Industrial Customers while Establishing Strategic Partnerships and Acquisition Candidates

QUINCY, MA--(February 17, 2016) - Permanent Technologies (PINKSHEETS: PERT) today issued a letter to shareholders from the company's President Frederick Barry II to update shareholders, potential investors and the general public on recent developments and its plans for this year.

Dear Shareholders,

Over the past year we have been identifying and pursuing opportunities for our TineLok™® Vibration Proof Fastening System in commercial and industrial markets, worldwide.

In furtherance of achieving this goal, in December, 2014, we entered into a marketing agreement with BroadBrand International Limited (“BroadBrand”) to license our products into the Asian markets, starting with China. An additional 13 countries have been identified, each of which, we believe, can utilize our vibration proof fastener assembly systems. We believe that this partnership strengthens Permanent’s sales position and gives us a knowledgeable outsourced sales staff.

I am also pleased to report we've been successful on the following fronts. Here are the specifics of these activities:

First, the company has re-designed its website for informational and web sales purposes, which can be viewed at www.tinelok.com

We have also mapped out a strategy for 2016, which is dependent upon obtaining financing, which there can be no assurance, to acquire distribution and /or manufacturing entities. Ideally, Permanent desires to manufacture its product on its own through an acquisition of a manufacturing entity and also hopes distribute its product in the United States with the addition of an internal sales force that would already be part of a distribution entity.

Alternatively, Permanent can license its products overseas through its already established relationships.

Currently, Permanent Technologies is in negotiations with two acquisition candidates and has been reviewing due diligence for each candidate. We believe that each of the candidates can give the company the reach into multiple industries including automotive, aerospace, construction, plumbing & valves with our fastener components. We also will add HVAC and electronic components to our product mix. These target entities are all ISO 9001:2008 certified and have access into the Department of Defense, where we believe there are many potential sales opportunities. On the manufacturing front, the candidate is a profitable entity that can produce our vibration proof product in house and has engineering and prototyping capabilities. Prototyping is  an integral manufacturing process that enables Permanent to control client inquiries, from engineering through the final approved production, controlling the process from new application to sale.

The Tinelok™® fastener assembly is currently beginning testing stages with the largest railway company in the US, for use in frog switches and track crossovers. Along these lines, Permanent began dialogue to test its product on subway cars, tracks, and platforms where vibration issues are a constant problem causing their current fasteners to wear and break repeatedly.

Permanent Technology has continued its efforts to secure an order with the U.S. Navy on its Hovercraft ships, by testing a new lightweight aluminum vibration proof fastening system, a follow up to two years of successful testing in a stainless steel product. The company has tested the aluminum variant product sixteen out of a required twenty five hours for completion. Additionally, we are in discussions with the new Hovercraft designs, in which our Tinelok™® product can be incorporated into designs which would be likely that future ship builders to purchase our components.

Finally, Permanent has established a new wholly owned subsidiary Permanent Consulting Solutions (“PCS”). This division was established to assist in the sales of established manufacturing and distribution companies. PCS, has two such engagements.

We will report updated details of our progress to shareholders on a timely basis.

Sincerely,

Frederick Barry II
