Thetford Mines, Quebec - TheNewswire – July 30, 2021 – KDA Group Inc. (TSXV: KDA) (“KDA” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce the restructuring, as of today, of its total debt owed to Persistence Capital Partners II, L.P. and Persistence Capital Partners II (International), L.P., (collectively “PCP”).

The Corporation and PCP signed today a Prepayment Agreement and related documents allowing the Corporation to (i) extend the maturity date of the notes and the Preferred Shares issued to PCP until December 31, 2022; (ii) reduce the interest and dividend rates and (iii) potentially reduce the amount payable to PCP to a minimum payment amount of $8,000,000.

“KDA’s management is proud to have found common ground with PCP to conclude this restructuring of PCP's total debt. This allows the Company to improve its current and future financial position, and I would like to thank PCP for their collaboration,” said Sylvain Duvernay, Chief Executive Officer of KDA.

The Series A Preferred Shares were issued to PCP in 2016 in consideration of $4,000,000 (the “Series A Preferred Shares”) and a promissory note in the amount of $1,000,000 was issued to PCP in 2017 (the “2017 Note”).

The Series A Preferred Shares were convertible into Class A Shares (the “Common Shares”) of the Corporation at a conversion price of $0.35 per Common Share, and entitled to vote as a separate class of shares and also on an “as converted” basis at any special or general meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation. The Series A Preferred Shares were not entitled to any fixed dividend entitlement but were entitled to participate in all dividends declared on the Common Shares on an “as converted” basis. Any time after June 30, 2020, PCP was entitled to demand that the Corporation redeem the Series A Preferred Shares at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) the subscription price of the Series A Preferred Shares plus a preferred return equal to 24%, compounded annually from June 30, 2016, less any amounts previously distributed as dividends and (ii) their fair market value.

The 2017 Note was issued to PCP in consideration of a loan of $1,000,000 to the Corporation for its general business activities. The 2017 Note bore interest at a rate of 18% per annum.

Under the restructuring of the PCP debt, the Corporation issued new Series B-1 and Series B-2 Preferred Shares to PCP as well as interest-bearing promissory notes and the Series A Preferred Shares were cancelled.

The Series B Preferred Shares have similar rights to the Series A Preferred Shares regarding voting and dividends but are not convertible into Common Shares of the Corporation.
