Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On July 2, 2009, Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc. (the “Company”) consummated a closing (the “Closing”) of its private placement offering (the “Offering”) of an aggregate of $350,000 of its Units, with each Unit comprised of $35,000 principal amount secured promissory notes (the “Notes”) and warrants to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.50 per share (the “Warrants”, and together with the Notes, the “Securities”) to accredited investors (“Investors”). The Securities were offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company sold an aggregate of 10 Units at a purchase price of $35,000 per Unit. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering primarily for the purchase of portfolios of unsecured consumer receivables and for general corporate purposes, including working capital.
The Notes bear interest at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum and mature on July 2, 2010. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. The Notes are secured by a lien on all of the Company’s assets. The Notes may be redeemed by the Company at any time prior to maturity at a rate of 110% of the then outstanding principal, plus accrued but unpaid interest. The Notes contain customary default provisions. Upon the occurrence of an event of the default, the Company will be charged an interest rate of eighteen percent (18%).
The Warrants entitle the holders to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance thereunder (the “Warrant Shares”) for a period of five years from the date of issuance. The Warrants contain certain anti-dilution rights on terms specified in the Warrants.
The investors of this Offering are not entitled to any registration rights with respect to the Securities.
The Securities were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, or any state securities laws, and were offered and sold only in the United States to “accredited investors” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act) pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) nor any state securities commission or regulatory body has approved or disapproved the securities. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
