Celeris Corporation (the “Registrant”) reports the following disposition of assets to inform its security holders:
On July 3, 2002, the Registrant completed the sale of substantially all of its assets, other than its cash, to STATPROBE, Inc. (the “Purchaser”). The sale was approved by the Registrant’s shareholders at a special meeting held on June 26, 2002 and the effective date of the sale was June 30, 2002.

Prior to the sale, no material relationship existed between the Purchaser and the Registrant or any of its affiliates, any director or officer of the Registrant, or any associate of such director or officer.
