DigitalFX International Announces the Restructuring of Previously Announced Financing Agreement
March 25 2008 - 7:30AM
PR Newswire (US)
LAS VEGAS, March 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- DigitalFX
International, Inc. (AMEX:DXN) a digital communications company,
today announced that it has restructured a previously announced $7
million financing agreement, of which $5 million was available to
the company, to $3 million. The proceeds will be used for strategic
initiatives and general working capital purposes. In explaining the
restructuring, Craig Ellins, DigitalFX CEO said, "We did not want
to unnecessarily burden the company with the debt and carrying
costs of the original $7 million agreement. Many new initiatives,
including an upcoming infomercial, have allowed us to refine and
lessen our need for outside capital. The restructuring will allow
DigitalFX to prudently realize the necessary capital to support our
continuing product development, marketing and growth initiatives.
We were also able to improve certain of the financial covenants
included in the notes." Ellins further explained that, "Another
reason for the restructuring was that $2 million of the $4 million
that is being returned would not have been available in the near
term." "In other words," said Ellins, "DigitalFX would have been
paying for capital it could not access." Under the terms of the
Amendment and Exchange Agreements, signed on March 24, 2008,
DigitalFX and the investors have agreed to restructure the
financing consummated under the Securities Purchase Agreement dated
November 29, 2007. DigitalFX will exchange the investors' existing
notes for a combination of amended and restated senior secured
convertible notes and an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of Common
Stock, and will exchange the investors' existing warrants for
amended and restated warrants. The amended and restated notes will
convert into approximately 1,500,000 shares, based on a conversion
price equal to $2.00 per share. The amended and restated warrants
are exercisable for an aggregate of 750,002 shares and will have an
exercise price of $0.959 per share. The conversion price and the
number of shares issuable upon conversion of the amended and
restated notes, and the exercise price and number of shares
issuable upon exercise of the amended and restated warrants, are
subject to adjustment as provided in the amended and restated notes
and warrants, including pursuant to economic anti- dilution
adjustments. The company said that in connection with the
restructuring transaction, VM Investors, LLC, DigitalFX's majority
shareholder (whose members include Craig Ellins, the Registrant's
Chief Executive Officer, and Amy Black, the President of
DigitalFX's subsidiary, VMdirect, L.L.C.), will enter into an
Amended and Restated Lock-Up Letter Agreement in favor of the
investors pursuant to which VM Investors, LLC will agree not to
offer, sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of any shares of common
stock of DigitalFX until the date that none of the amended and
restated notes remain outstanding, subject to specified limited
exceptions, including the transfer of 1,000,000 shares of Common
Stock to DigitalFX in connection with the restructuring
transaction. Also in connection with the restructuring transaction,
DigitalFX agreed to reimburse the fund manager of one of the
investors for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection
with the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase
Agreement, including the actual and reasonable fees and
disbursements of the fund manager's legal counsel, up to an
aggregate amount of $20,000. The transaction is expected to close
on March 26, 2008. Complete details are contained in the 8K filed
