By Paul A. Harris

St. Louis, Jan. 14 - Infinity, Inc. completed a transaction for $30 million of senior secured notes with warrants for common stock on Friday.

The notes pay interest at three-month Libor plus 675 basis points, according to a press release that the company issued.

According to the press release, the company closed the transaction on Friday with affiliates of two New York-based institutional investors.
