獲得資金は債務の整理と拡大成長戦略に用いる予定だとのこと。詳細については以下の英文資料をご参照のこと。

Under the terms of the financing, the investors have committed to invest $22.5 million with an option to invest an additional $2.5 million over the next few weeks. The investors will purchase newly created Series A Preferred Stock convertible at a per common share equivalent price of $0.20 per share. The investors also will receive warrants to purchase common stock at $0.20 per share.

GoFish will use a portion of the proceeds to repay all of its outstanding debt and to cancel outstanding warrants.

In connection with the repayment of the company’s debt, holders of 36% of the company’s outstanding convertible debt have elected to convert their debt into Series A Preferred Stock. The holders of the company’s subordinated debt converted all of their debt into Series A Preferred Stock and exchanged their common stock warrants into common stock at a ratio of one share of common stock for every 10 warrant shares. Holders of an additional 11% of the company’s convertible senior debt have the option to convert their debt into Series A Preferred Stock in the next few days.

Assuming the investment of $22.5 million and conversion of 36% of the company’s outstanding convertible debt (and excluding any conversion by holders of the additional 11% of the company’s convertible debt into Series A Preferred Stock), the company will issue Series A Preferred Stock convertible into approximately 152 million shares of common stock, approximately 3.6 million shares of common stock and issue warrants to purchase approximately 61 million shares of common stock.
