LAS VEGAS, NV, July 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Esprit Financial Group Inc. (ESPRIT) (EFGO.PK) www.espritfinancialgroup.com is pleased to announce it has provided $250,000 in funding to Global Vision, which is to assist in finalizing the acquisition of International Express Payment (IEXPay).
The funding is in the form of subordinated debt, and carries an annual interest rate of 15%, payable twice a year beginning Dec 31st, 2007. Debt repayments begin March 31st, 2009 at the rate of $50,000 per quarter in 5 instalments.
Additionally, stock warrants have been granted, under the following terms:
- The lesser of $100,000 worth of stock, the face value of the debt
still outstanding, or 5% of the outstanding stock as of December 31st
each year at a strike price based on the average price per share
traded in the previous 90 days.
- The stock warrants can only be exercised once in a calendar year,
beginning June 30th, 2009.
Esprit CEO Garr Winters announced, 'This is a win-win for both companies. As previously disclosed, Esprit has maintained a 23% interest, in GVHL we maintain the upside opportunity to benefit from the long-term potential we see in GVHL and IEXPay while limiting our financial obligations and exposure. The result is that Esprit keeps both deals in friendly and cooperative hands.'
Winters added, 'We had hoped to develop synergies between the two companies to develop complementary financial services within the incredibly attractive Chinese market. We have now made arrangements to share resources such as the costs of travel, China-based operations, and some daily operations. We saw this as a natural fit that Esprit provide this interim funding to accelerate the growth of both companies.'
