Company reduces dilution given recent milestone achievements
TORONTO, October 15, 2007 – Intertainment Media Inc. ("Intertainment” or the "Company") (TSXV: INT) is voluntarily withdrawing its preliminary prospectus offering announced on July 26, 2007, as the Company feels that it does not want to substantially dilute its current shareholder base.
The Company has achieved a number of major milestones with its online business model, primarily Eye Rock Digital.com, as it has reached the 120 Million Video View threshold, 100% sell through of select inventory, high volume of future ad bookings, and a significant increase in daily traffic and other prime metrics.
“As today’s press release confirms, fundamentals and industry conditions are running ahead of management expectations, so we feel there is no need to dilute the existing shares more than necessary at this time. As the business develops, we can reduce the amount of capital required to move the business forward,” said Mr. David Lucatch, CEO of Intertainment Media Inc.
The Company, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, will look to complete a brokered private placement to accredited investors, whereby investors will have the ability to purchase up to 4,000 convertible debentures units priced at $1,000 CDN per unit. The offering will be led by Paradigm Capital Inc. of Toronto. The company will pay 8% commission to eligible parties.
The convertible debenture will mature on or December 31, 2009, carry an eight percent (8%) interest rate, and have the ability to convert to common shares of the Company at $0.20 CDN each. In addition each convertible debenture unit will have attached 5,000 common share purchase warrants, valid for 24 months from the time of closing, with an exercise price of $0.30 CDN. The common share purchase warrants will be issued immediately upon closing of the private placement, and will not require the investor to convert the principal of the convertible debenture to common shares. The debentures will be subordinate to the Company’s current debentures.
The capital raised will be used for strategic growth opportunities, and for general corporate purposes. The Company may choose to issue fewer units than the maximum as it reviews its ongoing revenue bookings.
