Mobile Officers and Directors Complete
Subordinated Convertible Note Financing of $400,000
NEWARK, Calif. – August 3, 2012 – Socket Mobile, Inc. (OTC: SCKT), an innovative provider of mobile productivity solutions, today announced completion of a subordinated convertible note financing of $400,000. The purchasers of the notes are officers and directors of the Company. The proceeds will be used for working capital purposes, including ramping up production of the Company’s new SoMo655 handheld computer that was released at the end of last month.
The notes are two year notes that mature on August 1, 2014. The interest rate on the notes is 8 percent, payable upon redemption. The holder of each note may require the Company to redeem the principal amount of the note plus accrued interest after six months. The principal and accrued interest on the notes are convertible at the option of the holder into common stock at $2.44 per share if warrants previously issued to Hudson Bay Capital Master Fund continue to be outstanding at the time of conversion, or $2.00 per share if they are not. The notes are secured by the assets of the Company and are subordinated to the Company’s working capital line of credit with its bank. More detailed information is available in a Form 8-K being filed today.
