Trakopolis Enters into Amending Agreement for Secured Term Credit Facility
August 02 2019 - 5:48PM
Trakopolis IoT Corp. (TSXV: TRAK) ("
Trakopolis" or
the "
Company") announces that it has entered into
an agreement (the “
Amending Agreement”) with ESW
Holdings, Inc. (“
ESW”), its senior secured lender,
in respect of its US$3.0 million secured credit facility (the
“
Credit Facility”). Among other things, the
Amending Agreement updates the Company’s reporting obligations and
adds a requirement for Trakopolis to report on its ongoing
strategic process which involves the identification of capital
market alternatives available to it including financing
transactions and potential strategic combinations. The strategic
review is being conducted by a Special Committee of the Board of
Directors with the assistance of external legal and financial
advisors. The Amending Agreement requires the Company to provide
ESW with its repayment plan for the Credit Facility, which must be
satisfactory to ESW, and resets downward the liquidity covenants.
The Amending Agreement specifies additional events of default and
can be terminated at the election of ESW in certain circumstances.
In addition, the Company is required to raise approximately
US$80,000 in additional capital. It is expected that much of this
additional capital will come from the Company’s management team and
certain commitments have been received in this regard.
Trakopolis does not intend to comment further
regarding the strategic review process unless a specific
transaction or other alternative is approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company.

regarding: the reduction of the liquidity requirement under the
Credit Facility, the expectation of management participation in a

milestones successfully within the required timelines, to be
