New Issue: NeoMedia reduces placement of convertibles to $5.75 million

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., April 13 - NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. amended its agreement with YA Global Investments, LP in regard to a private placement of secured convertible debentures, according to an 8-K filed Monday with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The deal was announced for $8.65 million on Aug. 4.

According to the filing, the company and YA Global agreed on April 6 to reduce the value of the agreement's third tranche to $1.1 million from $4 million.

The first tranche of debentures settled for $2.33 million on July 28. The second tranche settled for another $2.33 million on Oct. 28.

The third tranche, which will reduce the total deal size to $5.75 million from $8.65 million, will be broken down into two separate closings. The first was completed for $550,000 on April 6 and the second will settle on May 1 for an additional $550,000.

As previously reported, the two-year debentures mature July 29, 2010. Interest accrues at 14% per annum and is payable at maturity.

YA may elect to convert the debentures at a conversion price equal to the lesser of $0.02 and 95% of the lowest volume-weighted average price of the company's common stock during the 10 trading days immediately preceding each conversion date.

The company may redeem the notes at a 10% premium to par.

YA also received a warrant for 100 million common shares, exercisable at $0.02, another warrant for 100 million shares, exercisable at $0.04, a third warrant for 125 million shares, exercisable at $0.05, and a fourth warrant for 125 million shares, exercisable at $0.075. All warrants expire on July 29, 2015.

The April 6 amendment also reduces the amount of funds that will be deposited into escrow under the agreement.
