Virtual Piggy settles $1.13 million tranche of $5 million units sale

Online security service will use proceeds for general purposes

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., March 1 - Virtual Piggy, Inc. completed a $1.13 million second tranche of a private placement of units on Feb. 29, according to an 8-K filed Thursday with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The deal priced for $5 million with a $500,000 greenshoe in December and was reported on Feb. 13, when the company said it raised $1.43 million on Feb. 10.

The company sold 2,038,571 units at $0.70 apiece in the initial closing and 1,618,642 units in the second tranche.

Each unit consists of two common shares and one warrant, with each warrant exercisable at $0.50 for two years. The strike price reflects a 13.79% discount to the Feb. 10 closing share price of $0.58.

Investors include company director Kirk Bradley.

Proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.
