Agreement; Creation of Direct Financial Obligation
On
October 29, 2008, Velocity Investments, LLC (Velocity), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Velocity Asset Management, Inc. (the Registrant) consummated a
final closing of a private placement offering of 14% Subordinated Notes (the Notes)
due 2011 (the Offering) to accredited investors (Investors). The Notes are
being offered and sold pursuant to exemption from registration under Section
4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). In
connection with the Offering, Velocity issued the Notes in the aggregate
principal amount of $600,000, and also entered into Subscription Agreements
with the Noteholders.
Together with a previous private placement, to date, Velocity has issued Notes in the aggregate principal
amount of $1,300,000. Interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears beginning
on the last day of the month that is four months from the date of the Notes.
Velocity will pay the principal amount of the Notes upon the earlier of
maturity or redemption. The Notes will be subordinated in liquidation
preference and in right of payment to all of the Registrants existing debt.
The Notes will be senior in right of payment and in liquidation preference to
any future long term debt of the Registrant. Upon an event of default,
Velocity will pay the Note holder a late charge computed at the rate of 18% per
annum of the amount not paid. Of the $1,300,000 in Notes that were issued,
$900,000 are held by related parties to Velocity, including a Note in the
amount of $150,000 to our CEO, John Kleinert, and Notes in the aggregate of
$750,000 to immediate family members of John Kleinert.
Velocity
intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering primarily for the purchase of
portfolios of unsecured consumer receivables and for general corporate
purposes, including working capital.
