New Issue: VendingData raises $7.78 million in private placement of notes

By Sheri Kasprzak

Atlanta, Feb. 15 - VendingData Corp. said it has raised $7,775,000 in a private placement.

The company issued the senior convertible notes for $3.25 million in exchange for existing 9% senior secured notes and $4,525,000 in cash.

The notes bear interest at 10% annually and mature in three years. Half of the outstanding principal of the notes is convertible into common shares at $1.65 each.

The company may prepay the notes at a premium before February 2007 and at par after that.
