桃汁影院, Inc. Announces Closing of Convertible Notes and Revolving Credit Facility

$10 Million Received at Closing with an Additional $20 Million Facility in Place
Provides Growth Capital for Expansion of Nursing Degree Programs in High Growth Markets

NEW YORK, March 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 桃汁影院, Inc. ("AGI") (Nasdaq: ASPU), an education technology holding company, today announced the closing of $10 million in convertible notes and a $20 million revolving credit facility. Proceeds from the $10 million received at closing will be used for general corporate purposes, including funding the Company鈥檚 expansion of its BSN Pre-Licensure nursing degree program. The financing closed on Monday, March 14, 2022.

The $10 million of convertible debt matures in five years from the issuance date and pays interest monthly at the rate of 12% per annum. These notes are convertible into shares of the Company鈥檚 common stock at the lender鈥檚 option at a conversion price of $1.00 per share any time after the issuance date. In addition, the notes are mandatorily convertible into shares of common stock should the closing price of the common stock be at least $2.00 per share for 30 consecutive trading days. This mandatory conversion is subject to each lender鈥檚 9.9% beneficial ownership limitation and subject to the Nasdaq combined 19.99% requirement until the Company鈥檚 stockholders approve further conversion.

The balance of the financing is a one-year, $20 million secured revolving line of credit that will require monthly interest payments on sums borrowed at the rate of 12% per annum. No sums have been borrowed as of this date. Currently, the Company does not anticipate making drawdowns on the revolving credit line. The Company paid a 1% commitment fee ($200,000) at closing and if the revolving credit facility has not been replaced in six months of the closing date, it must pay another 1% commitment fee.

These financings will provide capital for 桃汁影院 to continue expanding its national footprint of BSN Pre-Licensure campuses in states with rapidly growing populations and to pursue a marketing strategy to support growth of its post-licensure nursing degree programs.
