Terms of Convertible Note
Through the way of an unsecured convertible note, PRM will raise $ 250,000. Provided the note is not exercised prior, it will be repayable on 31 March 2020. The price of the conversion will be the lower of 20 per cent discount to volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the 5 trading days immediately preceding the date of issue or at a 20 per cent discount to the share price achieved for an equity-based capital raising conducted during the term of the note.
At maturity, the coupon rate is 10 per cent per annum. The company intends to issue 12.5 million unlisted options with an exercise price of $ 0.004 and scheduled expiry on 31 December 2020, based on 1 option for every $ 0.02 loaned via the convertible note.
The proceeds from the convertible note are planned to be directed towards working capital required to progress the current farm-out discussions to a conclusion.
