Barnsley, England, October 26, 2010 /PRNewswire-First Call/ -- MAM Software Group, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MAMS) (the “Company” or “MAM”), a leading provider of business automation, data and ecommerce solutions for the automotive aftermarket, announced it has successfully closed a £1,324,550, three year term loan with HSBC Bank plc. At the current exchange rate, the net proceeds were approximately US$2.0 Million. The Term Loan is payable in GBP, and at the current exchange rate, the monthly installments are approximately US$62,000 including interest of 3.4%.
Mike Jamieson, CEO of MAM Commented: “We are pleased to have secured this loan with favorable terms, including the 3.4% interest rate. Securing that interest rate, in this very difficult financing environment, is a validation of our efforts over the past year. In addition to the favorable interest rate, the debt is not convertible and the Company was not required to issue warrants to complete the transaction. This US$2.0 funding, and the US$3.3 million equity financing completed earlier this month, allowed MAM to prepay its currently outstanding 16% per annum $3.2 term loan and the 13.5%, $1.0 million Revolving Credit Facility due ComVest Capital, LLC. After repaying these obligations the Company added approximately $1.1 million to working capital.” Jamieson added: “Now that our refinancing efforts have successfully concluded, 100% of management’s efforts are squarely on the long-term plan for the future of the Company.
