Knoxville, Tenn., Nov. 19 – Netlist, Inc. settled a $15 million private placement of senior secured convertible promissory notes with SVIC No. 28 New Technology Business Investment LLP on Nov. 18, according to an 8-K filed Thursday with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The 2% note is due on Dec. 31, 2021 and is convertible into common shares at $1.25 per share, which is a 95.31% premium to the Nov. 17 closing share price of $0.64.
