Related Party Transaction
Minorplanet is pleased to announce that it has secured a loan from its Chief
Executive, Mr Terry Donovan, who, for the purposes of this transaction, is
regarded as a related party of the Company under the AIM Rules.
The loan is for the sum of GBP300,000 and is repayable over 24 months,
commencing on 4 June 2010. It bears an interest rate of 8% over Barclays Bank
Plc's base rate and is secured by a debenture over the assets of the Company and
certain of its subsidiaries. The loan was made to assist the general working
capital requirements of the Company [including the payment of certain creditor
arrears].
The securing of this loan from Mr Terry Donovan is a Related Party Transaction
for the purpose of AIM Rule 13. The Directors consider, having consulted with
Shore Capital and Corporate Limited, the Company's Nominated Adviser, that the
terms of the related party transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as the
Company's shareholders are concerned.
This is the first of a series of proposed actions designed to return the Group
to financial stability and profitability. More details on these actions and an
update on the Company's trading and financial position will be provided as part
of the 2009 Preliminary Announcement which is expected in late February 2010.
