Chapter 11 Post Petition Financing

On October 8, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), SITO Mobile, Ltd. (the “Company”) and its direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries SITO Mobile Solutions, Inc., and SITO Mobile R&D IP, LLC (collectively with the Company, the “Debtors”), filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey (the “Bankruptcy Court”) seeking relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). The Chapter 11 cases are being administered under Case No. 20-21435, Case No. 20-21436 and Case No. 20-21437 (the “Chapter 11 Cases”). The Debtors continue to operate their businesses and manage their properties as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

In connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors have received two tranches of post-petition financing. The most recent on 12/30/2020 where the Bankruptcy Court granted Debtors’ motions seeking approval to obtain post-petition financing and granting a superpriority administrative claim for $400,000 in Debtor In Possession (“DIP”) financing in the form of Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) to certain investors (the “Note Investors”). The 1-Year Notes accrue simple interest on any unpaid principal at the rate of six percent (6.0%) per annum. The proceeds will be used for Debtors’ operating expenses and a carve out for professional fees in the amount of $100,000.00 including $50,000.00 for Committee’s counsel and $50,000.00 for Debtors’ bankruptcy counsel. The initial tranche was granted on 11/16/2020 by the Bankruptcy Court to the Note Investors for a total of $300,000 in a 1-Year Collateral Secured Promissory Note (the “Notes”) with an annual simple interest rate of 6%.
