AdStar Offers Laurus Opportunity to Convert Existing Note at $1.88 Per Share

MARINA DEL REY, Calif., Sept. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — AdStar, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADST – News) today announced that it has offered the Laurus Master Fund the opportunity to convert the $821,000 balance of AdStar’s Convertible Note, at a price of $1.88 per share, $0.37 per share less than the present conversion price of $2.25. If Laurus converts the balance of the Note, AdStar’s quarterly cash flow will be improved by approximately $150,000, through reduction of principal and interest payments, and a quarterly charge of $68,000, representing amortization of beneficial interest and amortization of financing fees on the convertible note, will be eliminated. If the entire balance of the Note is converted, AdStar will increase its common stock and additional paid in capital by approximately $821,000 offset by a one-time charge at the time of conversion of approximately $605,000, representing the immediate write-off of the balance of the original issue discount and an additional charge for induced conversion incurred in this transaction. AdStar has granted Laurus the right to utilize this lower conversion price during the 20 trading days commencing tomorrow, but Laurus may not, without AdStar’s consent, convert more than 250,000 during the first 10 days of that period. AdStar has reserved the right to cancel or defer Laurus’ right to convert shares during the second 10-day trading period.
