(TSX-V: CLIP) (OTCQB: CLPMF) (“Clip Money” or the “Company”), a company that operates a multi-bank self-service deposit system for businesses, is pleased to announce the closing of a non-brokered private placement of an unsecured convertible note (the “Convertible Note”) for gross proceeds of US$3,000,000 (or CAD$4,125,900, based on a CAD/USD exchange rate of US$1 = CAD$1.3753) to Cardtronics Inc. (“Cardtronics”), a subsidiary of NCR Atleos Corporation (the “Convertible Note Financing”).

Separately, Clip Money is also pleased to announce the closing of a non-brokered private placement of 6,876,500 common shares in the capital of the Company (“Common Shares”) at a price of CAD$0.20 per Common Share for gross proceeds of US$1,000,000 (or CAD$1,375,300, based on a CAD/USD exchange rate of US$1 = CAD$1.3753) to two insiders of the Company (the “Equity Financing”, together with the Convertible Note Financing, the “Financings”).

The Convertible Note will accrue simple interest at a rate of 13% per annum. The Company will make quarterly cash interest payments in satisfaction of a portion of the interest that accrues on the principal amount of the Convertible Note in the preceding quarter. The principal amount of the Convertible Note outstanding on the Maturity Date plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon that has not been previously paid in connection with the quarterly interest payments will be due and payable in full on, July 18, 2030 (the “Maturity Date”).

On the Maturity Date, payment of the principal amount of the Convertible Note then outstanding will be satisfied by the Company, at Cardtronics’ sole discretion, through: (i) a cash payment equal to the entirety of the principal amount of the Convertible Note then outstanding; (ii) the issuance of a number of Common Shares equal to the entirety of the principal amount of the Convertible Note then outstanding divided by CAD$0.55 (the “Conversion Price”); or (iii) a combination of a cash payment and the issuance of Common Shares at the Conversion Price, provided that at least 50% of the principal amount of the Convertible Note then outstanding must be converted into Common Shares.

On the Maturity Date, payment of all accrued and unpaid interest up to and including the Maturity Date that has not been previously satisfied by way of the quarterly interest payments will be satisfied by the Company, at Cardtronics’ sole discretion, through: (i) a cash payment equal to the entirety of all accrued and unpaid interest up to and including the Maturity Date; (ii) the issuance of a number of Common Shares equal to the entirety of the accrued and unpaid interest up to the Maturity Date divided by the then-prevailing market price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”), subject to prior written approval of the TSXV; or (iii) a combination of a cash payment and the issuance of Common Shares at the then prevailing market price of the Common Shares on the TSXV, subject to prior written approval of the TSXV.

Subject to the terms of the Convertible Note, if the Company redeems all or a portion of the Convertible Note prior to the three year anniversary thereof, it must pay a redemption price equal to 102% of the portion of the principal amount of the Convertible Note being redeemed plus all accrued and unpaid interest up to and including the redemption date on the portion of the principal amount being redeemed. Such a redemption shall be payable in cash or, at the election of the holder and subject to the prior written approval of the TSXV, be payable in Common Shares pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Note.

Subject to the terms of the Convertible Note, if the Company redeems all or a portion of the Convertible Note after the three year anniversary thereof and until the date that is one day before the Maturity Date, it must pay a redemption price equal to 101% of the portion of the principal amount of the Convertible Note being redeemed plus all accrued and unpaid interest up to and including the redemption date on the portion of the principal amount being redeemed. Such a redemption shall be payable in cash or, at the election of the holder and subject to the prior written approval of the TSXV, be payable in Common Shares pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Note.
