ConSyGen Accepts $5.1 Million Subscription: Will File For Nasdaq Listing
Monday September 29 9:41 AM EDT Company Press Release
PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 29, 1997--ConSyGen, Inc. (OTCBB:CSGI) announced today that it has accepted a common stock subscription for which it will receive approximately $5.1 million in net proceeds. ConSyGen expects to receive the proceeds of this subscription on or about Oct. 1, 1997. Ron Bishop, President and CEO stated that ConSyGen will immediately file for inclusion on the Nasdaq Stock Market's SmallCap market upon receipt of the funds.
ConSyGen intends to use the net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, including sales and marketing.
The subscription is for 900,000 shares of common stock at a price of $5.8625 per share and is from a pension fund of a large German company whose identity was not disclosed. The shares were sold in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Consequently, the shares may not be sold except pursuant to a Securities Act registration statement or an exemption from registration. The company has agreed to file a Securities Act registration statement, within 45 days of closing, which registers the shares for resale by the investor.
Ron Bishop continued: ``ConSyGen has always believed that it has one of the best year 2000 toolsets in the industry but has not had sufficient funds to aggressively market its capability. Once we receive the proceeds from this subscription, we will have sufficient funds to build the sales and marketing infrastructure necessary to make the world aware of the tremendous speed accuracy and competitive price with which our fully automated year 2000 toolset can make code compliant for the year 2000 and beyond.
Since we announced our marketing campaign last month, we are receiving more inquiries than ever before.``
