The Board of Motopia Limited (ASX:MOT) is pleased to announce
that it has signed an equity facility agreement with US based
Dutchess Capital to provide long-term funding for working capital
of up to $A15 million. The equity facility provides a solid base of
funding to Motopia over the next three years.
The funding allows Motopia to call on funds when needed, in
tranches of up to $300,000 per drawdown (or up to $500,000 if
agreed by the parties). At no time will Dutchess Capital hold more
than 19.99% of Motopia.
Dutchess Capital is an investment manager which provides
creative financing for public companies. Founded in 2000, Dutchess
has been a global leader in Equity Line Facilities (ELFs) for
almost a decade, and has transacted in excess of $1.8 billion in
such financings worldwide. The ELF is a flexible financing
structure by which publicly traded companies can raise capital
quickly, efficiently, and with less dilution than most traditional
offerings.
Executive Chairman of Motopia, Jitto Arulampalam stated “This
investment shows clearly the level of faith there is in Motopia,
the Board have worked tirelessly over the last 12 months, with many
hurdles to overcome to create a company with a solid foundation. To
develop the world standard solutions we pride ourselves on and for
the timely deliverables of these solutions, Dutchess Capital has
offered us the fuel we need to get there quickly. There’s nothing
stopping us now.”
Chief Executive Officer of Motopia, Matthew Gerard, said today
“The Board is delighted to have secured this investment
relationship with Dutchess Capital. This investment demonstrates
that Motopia is on the world stage and that our suite of full
service mobile marketing solutions is being noticed. We are
extremely excited about a number of projects we are currently
working on and this facility will allow us to accelerate the roll
out of these projects in the months ahead.”
Douglas Leighton of Dutchess Capital said today “We are very
pleased to be working with Motopia and look forward to providing
them with the capital to execute on their roll out of projects in
the upcoming months. “
