TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Bragg Gaming Group (NASDAQ: BRAG, TSX: BRAG) (“Bragg†or the “Companyâ€), a leading global B2B iGaming content and technology provider, today announced it has reached an agreement with its lenders, certain entities controlled by Doug Fallon, to repay USD 5 million of its outstanding USD 7 million secured promissory note and to extend the maturity of the remaining USD 2 million until June 6, 2025 (the “Noteâ€).
The company is in the process of securing a new revolving credit facility from a third-party lender. This facility is expected to offer more favourable terms than the existing Note, including lower borrowing costs and improved drawdown flexibility.
“This partial repayment and extension will further strengthen our balance sheet and reflects our confidence in the business,†said Robbie Bressler, CFO of Bragg. “With a reduced need for working capital support, we’re focused on finalizing a new facility to secure standby credit, allowing for greater financial flexibility and enabling us to pursue strategic growth opportunities.â€
All other terms of the original Note remain unchanged. Bragg intends to repay the remaining USD 2 million balance on or before the amended June 6, 2025 maturity date.
MI 61-101 Disclosure
Doug Fallon is a related party to the Company as he is a senior officer of the Company. The extension of the Note is considered to be a “related party transaction†for purposes of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61- 101â€). The Company is relying on the exemption from the formal valuation requirement in section 5.4 of MI 61-101, and the minority shareholder approval requirement in section 5.6 of MI 61-101, in reliance on section 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, respectively, as at the time the extension of the Note was agreed to, neither the fair market value of the Note, nor the fair market value of the consideration payable to the lenders under the Note exceeds 25% of the market capitalization of the Company.
The Company notes that the extension of the Note is occurring concurrently with this announcement and that it will not file a material change report in respect of the related party transaction at least 21 days before the extension of the Note. The Company deems this circumstance reasonable in order to complete the extension of the Note in an expeditious manner. The extension of the Note has been unanimously approved by the Company’s board of directors.
