The Company has on this date entered into a conditional loan commitment agreement with its related party, GoMobile Nu AB, which holds approximately 23 percent of the shares and the votes in the Company. The agreement is conditional in such way that its validity is subject to approval by the general meeting of the Company, which is to be held on 10 May 2022. Under the loan commitment agreement, the creditor makes available, between 10 May 2022 and 9 May 2023 (the commitment period), a loan facility of up to SEK 9,400,000, which may be drawn by the Company in one or more tranches. The payable interest is 6,5 percent per annum on any amount drawn under the loan facility, and a stand-by fee of 1,5 percent per annum is payable on any undrawn amount of the loan facility during the commitment period.
The Company is entitled to end the commitment period anytime, and thus limit the amount of the stand-by fee. Any amounts drawn shall be repaid by 10 May 2023, on which date also the interest and the stand-by fee shall be payable.
The facility will enable the Company to pay its general corporate expenses while the Company is working to open a new bank account, following the termination by the Austrian authorities of business operations of Sberbank Europe AG, where the Company previously had its bank account.
