New Issue: Ceramic wraps $6 million private placement of convertibles

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., Feb. 5 - Ceramic Protection Corp. took in $6 million from a private placement of subordinated convertible debentures. The deal priced Jan. 2.

The three-year notes have a 10% coupon, and their conversion price will be the Canadian dollar equivalent of $6.57.

Ceramic may force conversion if, after the first year, its common shares trade at or above the Canadian dollar equivalent of $9.10 for 30 or more consecutive trading days.

Up to $3 million of the debentures will be bought by insiders.

Proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes and working capital.
