The Wiki Group, Inc. Announces Investment Banking Agreement for $10,000,000 Public Shelf Offering and $20,000,000 debt placement.
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Wiki Group, Inc. (OTCQB: TWGI) ("Wiki Group", or "the Company") is pleased to announce it has signed two investment banking agreements with a leading New York-based investment banking firm to assist in sourcing capital. The investment banking firm was founded in 1925, is one of the oldest in the United States, a member of the New York Stock Exchange and a full-service broker-dealer employing over 500 people. The firm manages two Morningstar- rated funds with over $2.8 Billion of retail accounts, nearly 100 registered representatives and 20 investment advisors in six offices.
Under the first agreement, the Company has retained the investment banking firm as its exclusive placement agent and financial advisor in connection with an offering of up to a $3 million PIPE and up to a $20 million debt placement. The agreement shall be applicable only upon the Company successfully merging with Moneytech Limited, an Australian commercial finance company.
The second agreement anticipates a public shelf offering of up to $10,000,000 on a firm commitment basis. The planned public offering is also subject to the Company's successful merger with Moneytech Limited, an Australian commercial finance company.
The Company's CEO, Edward C. DeFeudis, said, "We are grateful to have established this relationship with such a prestigious New York Stock Exchange member firm. The commitment validates our planned acquisition and long term business plan. The investment bank should provide the Company a strong foundation in the public markets, while its backing should allow the Company to gain a foothold to deliver its niche financial services products to the estimated 70 million unbanked and under-banked adults residing in the United States. The management believes we can satisfy the conditions in both investment banking agreements."
