MONTREAL, Canada, November 30 - Management of GLV Inc. ("GLV" or the "Company"; ticker symbols
GLV.A, GLV.B / TSX) is pleased to announce the closing of the acquisition, by
its indirect subsidiary Eimco Water Technologies GmbH, of 80.5% of the shares
of Christ Water Technology AG ("CWT") tendered by CWT shareholders into GLV's
voluntary takeover bid during the tender period ended November 17, 2009, for
a cash consideration of $85 M (the "Transaction"). In addition to shares of
CWT acquired in the Transaction, GLV continues to purchase shares of CWT on
the secondary market at a maximum price equal to the tender offer price. As
of November 27th, 2009 the Company owned 83.1% of CWT's Voting Shares. The
Transaction is partially financed by the $53.3 M gross proceeds from the
issue of GLV Class A subordinate voting shares in exchange for the
subscription receipts held by the Caisse de depot et placement du Quebec and
the Solidarity Fund QFL (the "Fund") in relation to the Transaction as
announced November 23, 2009. The Transaction is also financed by the issuance
of a $25 M subordinated debenture by GLV to the Fund and by drawing on GLV's
existing credit facility. CWT's net debt is estimated at approximately $48 M
as of today (net of CWT's estimated cash position), including approximately
$80 M of bonds.

CWT shareholders who have not yet tendered their shares are
reminded that they may do so during the three months following the tender
period for a cash consideration of EUR3.35 per share pursuant to the same
terms as set forth in GLV's voluntary takeover bid . GLV aims to acquire 100%
of CWT's shares for an additional cash consideration of approximately $20 M
(at the current exchange rate).

Furthermore, considering the change of control triggered by
the Transaction, CWT bondholders have a right, at their option, to require
repayment of their bonds at their nominal value plus accrued interest. The
repayment of the bonds under this triggered right is only valid to the extent
that termination notices representing at least 15% of the total nominal value
of the outstanding bonds are received by the payment agent (UniCredit Bank
Austria AG, Abt 8811 Zahlstellendienst Julius Tandler-Platz 3, A-1090 Wien)
from bondholders within 30 days following the closing of the Transaction as
announced today.
