TAREN POINT, Australia, Jan. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fitell Corporation (Nasdaq: FTEL) ("Fitell" or the "Company"), an online retailer of gym and fitness equipment in Australia, announced that the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an investor on January 15, 2024. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on Form 6-K, the Company issued to the investor a three-year senior unsecured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of US$3,600,000 for the funding amount of US$3,312,000. This placement is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

The Notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of the Company. The Notes will bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum and will mature on January 15, 2027, 36 months from the issue date, January 15, 2024.

Investors may convert all or any amount of the principal face amount into Fitell's ordinary shares at a conversion price based on the lowest closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares as reported on The Nasdaq Capital Market during the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion, provided, however, that the conversion price shall not be lower than $0.80 per share.

Additionally, the private placement includes warrants entitling the Investor to purchase up to 5,645,455 ordinary shares of the Company at an exercise price of $1.056 per share. This exercise price represents 120% of the per share price on The Nasdaq Capital Market as of the issue date, January 15, 2024.

Fitell intends to use the net proceeds of the private placement for working capital purpose, in line with the Company’s strategic business goals.

The private placement is being made only to “Accredited Investors” (as such term is defined in the Securities Act) pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act, or non-US investors pursuit to Regulation S.
