DELTA DRONE - Drawing of a tranche of ORNAN of €2.5 million in nominal value and significant reduction in potential dilution

Drawing of a tranche of ORNAN of €2.5 million in nominal valueand significant reduction in potential dilution

Dardilly, May 10, 2022 – 6pm

Increase in financial resources and significant reduction in potential dilution

The financing transaction agreed between Delta Drone and Yorkville Advisors will take place in two parts, with the draw of a tranche of €2.5 million today (May 10, 2022), followed by the draw of a second tranche of €1 million scheduled for June 10, 2022 (the draw of this second tranche will be the subject of a specific press release).

This agreement is part of a particular context that aims not only to strengthen the group's financial resources, but also to reduce the potential dilution in a very significant way.

The reinforcement of financial resources is justified by the commercial prospects that are accumulating and require a need for sufficient working capital, in line with the sale of equipment whose unit value is between 150 and 200 K€.

Regarding the reduction in potential dilution, the drawdown of the €2.5 million tranche of ORNAN achieved today is accompanied by the acquisition by Delta Drone of all existing BSAs held by Yorkville Advisors, i.e. 2,147,549,465 BSA which represented a potential future dilution of 36.76%. The cash value of these BSAs is based on an assessment by an independent expert, whose work has been the subject of a written report.

It should be noted that this number of BSAs does not include the BSAs attached to the two draws to come, the one of today and that of June 10th. All the BSAs attached to these two tranches will be immediately bought by Delta Drone at a price of €1.

All BSAs will be cancelled in order to eliminate the risk of dilution attached.
