Monster Offers™ and Ad Shark™ Agree to Merge

SAN DIEGO, May 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Monster Offers (OTCBB: MONTD), a leading Daily Deal analytics provider and aggregator, and adShark, Inc., Iconosys' mobile advertising subsidiary, today announce that the parties intend to merge adShark with and into Monster Offers, subsequent to the spin-off by Iconosys of its ownership stake in adShark to Iconosys shareholders.   

As previously announced in a press release dated April 18, 2012, Monster Offers had recently signed a non-binding Letter of Intent to be acquired by Iconosys through a reverse merger transaction.  After further assessment and evaluation of their respective costs and benefits in connection with this transaction, both parties believe their mutual corporate objectives and sought-after business re-alignment can best be achieved by merging adShark and Monster Offers.  Immediately prior to the contemplated merger, Iconosys, which presently owns a majority stake in Ad Shark, will distribute its shares pro-rata to its existing shareholders in a spin-off transaction.

Both Monster Offers and Ad Shark are in the business of delivering targeted mobile advertising services and marketing programs.  The newly-merged entity continues to maintain its existing strategic alliance, as well as licensing and other contractual relationships with Iconosys for its mobile development initiatives and foundational app-related technologies.
