BELO HORIZONTE, BRAZIL--(Marketwired - Jan 13, 2014) - Brazil Minerals Inc. (
Marc Fogassa, Chairman and CEO of BMIX, commented, "With this capital equipment financing, we are able to buy pre-selected items of capital machinery, such as an excavator and a bulldozer. We will capitalize them on our balance sheet and eliminate monthly outflows from expensive rental machinery."
The financing was structured as a convertible note with 12% interest and warrants. The Note converts at a price per share that is 42% above the market price of the BMIX common stock on the date of issuance of the Note. The warrants convert at 79% above the market price of the BMIX common stock on the date of issuance of the Warrant.
Marc Fogassa further commented, "Both trustees of the family trust that invested in this transaction are highly experienced investors. I negotiated with one of them directly over the holidays and I am pleased that this financing came together quickly. Separately from the trust, these individuals manage an asset management firm with over $12 billion in assets under management."
