Cardtronics is Clip Money's largest shareholder and also a strategic commercial partner through the NCR Atleos Allpoint ATM network.

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 at a price of 20 cents per common share for gross proceeds of $1-million (U.S.) (or $1,375,300, based on a Canadian dollar/U.S. dollar exchange rate of $1 (U.S.) equals $1.3753) to two insiders of the company.
The convertible note will accrue simple interest at a rate of 13 per cent 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.
On the maturity date, payment of the principal amount of the convertible note then outstanding will be satisfied by the company, at Cardtronics's 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 55 cents (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 per cent 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's 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, subject to prior written approval of the TSX-V; 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 TSX-V, subject to prior written approval of the TSX-V.
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 per cent 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 TSX-V, 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 per cent 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 TSX-V, be payable in common shares pursuant to the terms of the convertible note.
The financings represent related party transactions under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 -- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (MI 61-101), but are exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the subject matter of the transactions nor the consideration paid exceeds 25 per cent of the company's market capitalization.
All securities to be issued in connection with the equity financing and the convertible note financing are subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day from the date hereof in accordance with applicable securities legislation in Canada.
The company intends to use the net proceeds from the financings for network expansion and customer acquisition, new unit capital expenditures, business operations and technology, and for general corporate purposes.
