ZOOMD Zoom Technologies (MM)

Zoom Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZOOMD) today announced it has executed definitive agreements with institutional and accredited investors for a $10 million fundraise in a private placement of common stock and warrants.

The transaction involves the sale of 2.5 million newly-issued shares of the company's common stock and warrants to purchase an additional 1.25 million shares of the company's common stock at 150% of the purchase price. The amount of shares issued upon closing will be limited to 20% of the company's issued and outstanding shares preceding the closing in accordance with Nasdaq regulations. Accordingly, due to such limitations the Company expects that approximately half of the total proceeds of the private placement will remain in escrow pending shareholder approval of the transaction in accordance with Nasdaq regulations. In addition, the investors in the private placement will receive additional warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the company which are exercisable only in the event that the company fails to meet certain net income targets.

The transaction will close in two traunches. The second traunch requires shareholder approval and a special shareholder meeting is being scheduled in the next 30-45 days. Proceeds from this financing will be used for capacity expansion purposes.

Due to limitations of the public float and SEC Rule 415, a majority of the shares sold in the transaction will be restricted from trading until six months after closing of the transaction when Rule 144 becomes applicable.

Mr. Anthony Chan, Chief Financial Officer of Zoom Technologies stated, "We are extremely pleased, as a newly traded public company, to attract quality institutional investors and execute this transaction. The funds will allow us to add more production lines, expand our capacity and strengthen our position as one of the top ten manufactures of handsets in China's robust mobile phone industry. We are now poised to grow with the rapidly expanding China 3G market, pursue additional projects, and produce mobile products for top tier Chinese mobile phone companies."

Global Hunter Securities acted as sole placement agent in the transaction and was represented by Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP. Ellenoff Grossman & Schole served as legal advisor to Zoom in the transaction.

This press release does not and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy any of the securities. For additional information, please refer to Zoom's current report on Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in conjunction to this transaction.
