Sanctuary Woods Completes Rights Offering and Raises Over $2 million
Company Also Completes Exchange of Debt for Equity
SAN MATEO, Calif., April 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Sanctuary Woods Multimedia (Nasdaq BB: SWMCF) announced today that it has completed its Rights Offering, raising approximately $2.2 million. In addition, holders of the Company's 8% Convertible Debentures due July 31, 1999 (the "Debentures"), which in aggregate amount to $5.3 million, have exchanged the Debentures for 100,000 Series A Preferred Stock and additional warrants to purchase no more than 21,649,833 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. In consideration for the exchange, the Debenture holders are foregoing all interest accrued and owing on the Debentures. Interest owing on the Debentures at March 31, 1997 totaled $225,445, and was payable in Common Stock.
The successful completion of the Rights Offering and the exchange of convertible debt to equity is a significant milestone for the Company in its reorganization to focus on educational software. Capital raised over the past 12 months has largely paid off debt. "We will now be able to focus on building the business and creating high quality educational content," said Charlotte Walker, President and CEO. The Company has two more steps to complete its reorganization which are expected to be approved at a special shareholder meeting on April 15. This includes a continuation of the corporation to the U.S. as a Delaware corporation and a one-for-twenty reverse consolidation.
