Under the terms of the agreement, Berkshire will assist AGS in the development of financing strategies for the continued expansion of the lottery program in Vietnam and other on-line lottery opportunities worldwide. Berkshire's primary experience is working with U.S.-based companies, some of which are Nasdaq related. It also has a successful record of assisting Canadian companies as well. It typically develops yield enhancement contracts, debt service reserve collateralisation structures, and inverse floater yield enhancement instruments, which assist corporations to secure U.S.-based financing for their projects. Berkshire Funding has perfected a number of structures that replace traditional debt services with equity participation. In certain transactions this could be convertible preferred stock, or a conversion into common stock at an exit formula, such that the investor receives a premium to interest dollars, while at the same time, a protected, enhanced or even guaranteed return of principal at a future date. The agreement provides for Berkshire to explore a number of key strategic options in the U.S. financial markets "The addition of a New York-based funding organization is key to our long-term strategic direction, with both Trinity capital of Toronto and Berkshire Funding of New York in place, Applied Gaming now has representation in all the major North American financial markets," said David Aftergood, president and chief executive officer of Applied Gaming Solutions of Canada Inc.
