HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / June 19, 2017 / Environmental Packaging Technologies ("EPT") (OTC PINK: EPTI) announces that it has
closed on a series of financings totaling $7.67 million of new capital, consisting of $2.9 million of equity in the form of
"straight" common stock, conversion of $760,000 of convertible notes into common stock and $4 million drawn down from its new line
of credit.
In April 2017, EPT closed on a $7.5 million line of credit provided jointly by a prominent finance group specializing in
export-import financing and a US government lending organization. Currently, EPT has drawn approximately $4 million on its line of
credit based on its borrowing availability. EPT plans to draw down on the balance of this line to support its continued growth and
working capital needs. Concurrently, EPT also converted $14 million of subordinated debt into common stock at $1.40 per share.
"This new equity investment of $2.9 million, the conversion of $760,000 of debt to equity, the $7.5 million line of credit, and
the conversion of $14 million in subordinated debt to equity provides EPT with the strongest balance sheet in the company's history
and the capital needed to grow its business," stated David Skriloff, CEO.
