Honye Financial Services Ltd
(the "Company" or "Honye")
Financing
The Company is pleased to announce that it has entered into a loan agreement with Tang Investment No 1 Limited (the "Lender"). The principal amount of the loan is £275,000 (the "Loan"). The Loan is unsecured with interest accruing on the principal at the rate of 6.25% per annum. The Loan is capable of repayment at the Company's option and has a maturity date of 5 April 2027. The proceeds of the Loan shall be used to continue to fund the reverse takeover transaction announced on 9 June 2021, completion of which the Company is targeting before the end of H1 this year ("RTO").
Further Details of the Transaction
Shaun Carew-Wootton, non-executive Chairman of the Company, is also director and sole shareholder of the Lender. The Loan therefore constitutes a related party transaction for the purposes of DTR 7.3. The Directors (other than Mr Carew-Wootton) considered and approved the terms of the Loan.
The Company also expects the Lender to make a material investment in the fundraising to be carried out in connection with the RTO. The Lender is principally funded by a consortium of private investors based in Southeast Asia.
Chairman's comments:
"This financial support from Tang Investment No 1 Limited provides us with a clear path to completing the RTO. The Company appreciate this demonstration of confidence in our collective efforts and look forward to announcing completion of the RTO without further significant delay."
A further announcement will be made in due course.
