£1 million Loan Facility - Correction
5th Jun, 2007
The following announcement replaces the announcement regarding the £1 million
loan facility released today at 16.49pm under RNS number 8296X. It includes a
correction to the date after which time a rate of interest payable of 10% will
start accruing, from 30 November 2007 to 30 November 2008. There is also an
additional final paragraph.
Further to the announcement by Forbidden Technologies plc (the "Company") of 22
May 2007 in which it was noted that the Directors were considering a number of
potential sources of funding including a possible director's loan, the Company
announces that it has signed an agreement to secure unsecured loan facilities
from its Chairman (Vic Steel) and CEO (Stephen Streater) of up to £1,000,000
(one million pounds). In the event of a new share issue of £1,000,000 or more,
the loan advanced by the Chairman of up to £100,000 would, at the option of the
Chairman, be convertible into shares on the same terms as the share issue.
The loan is expected to provide working capital for the company for the
foreseeable future, and to support the company to a break even or profitable
position, and as such the maximum facilities available for drawdown each month
are tapered over the next three years.
No interest will accrue on the facilities until 30 November 2008 at which point
the rate of interest payable will increase to 10% per annum for the twelve month
period to 30 November 2009 and by a further by 10% per annum until the loan
facilities are repaid in full. The facilities (or any part thereof) may be
repaid at any time by the Company and will become immediately repayable on
demand upon the occurrence of standard events of default.
Forbidden Technologies plc (the "Company") confirms that the Independent
Directors (being the Board of Directors excluding Messrs Steel and Streater)
consider, having consulted with its Nominated Adviser, that the terms of the
transaction outlined therein are fair and reasonable insofar as the shareholders
of the Company are concerned.
