(“TILT" or the “Company”) (NEO: TILT) (OTCQX: TLLTF), a global provider of cannabis business solutions that include inhalation technologies, cultivation, manufacturing, processing, brand development and retail, today announced the early repayment in full of its US$4.5 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured promissory notes (the “Bridge Notes”), with an original issue discount of approximately US$0.5 million, due December 1, 2023.
“When we initially secured this instrument in May to meet unforeseen short-term cash obligations, we made clear our intention to extinguish this debt as quickly as possible,” said Interim Chief Executive Officer, Tim Conder. “By repaying this obligation over three months prior to the scheduled maturity date, we have not only fulfilled this objective but have reaffirmed our commitment to strengthening our balance sheet, meeting our debt obligations and maintaining alignment with our debt holders.
