Met-Pro Corporation Declares Quarterly Dividend

HARLEYSVILLE, Pa., June 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Met-Pro Corporation (NYSE: MPR) today announced that the Company's Board of Directors, at their meeting today, declared a quarterly dividend of $0.0725 per share payable on September 13, 2013 to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 30, 2013.

As previously announced, on April 21, 2013, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with CECO Environmental Corp. ("CECO"). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, in the event that the closing date of the First Step Merger (as defined in the Merger Agreement) occurs before August 30, 2013, then the dividend declared on June 5, 2013 shall not be paid to the Company's shareholders; however, in such event, CECO has agreed to set its record date for the payment of its third dividend occurring during its current fiscal year to occur on a date that is at least two business days after the closing date of the First Step Merger.

The closing of the First Step Merger is subject to customary conditions including the approval of the Company's shareholders at a special meeting of shareholders to be held following the mailing of a prospectus/proxy statement for the special meeting of shareholders. CECO filed a registration statement containing this prospectus/proxy statement with the SEC on May 23, 2013, but at this time, the Company is not able to state whether the closing date for the First Step Merger will occur before August 30, 2013. After the mailing of the prospectus/proxy statement, the Company and CECO expect to announce the anticipated date for the closing of the First Step Merger.
