IceWEB(TM) Receives Commitment Letter from Wells Fargo Business Credit to Refinance Senior Debt

Monday May 19, 4:40 pm ET

 

Expected to Yield Savings of Approximately $700,000 in Interest Expense Over the Next 12 Months

 

HERNDON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--IceWEB, Inc. (OTCBB:IWEB - News) (www.IceWEB.com) today announced that the company has received a commitment approval from Wells Fargo Business Credit to refinance its current accounts receivable securitization facility under terms that are much more favorable to the Company. The future borrowing capacity will be limited only by IceWEB’s total accounts receivables deemed valid by the lender. Consequently, as the Company’s accounts receivables increase, available funding under the line will also rise. The variable interest rate will be equal to the Prime Rate published in the Wall Street Journal, plus a margin of 0.05% (half percent).

 

In anticipation of closing the transaction expeditiously, Wells Fargo has filed a blanket UCC-1. The transaction is subject to customary due diligence and is expected to close in the next 45 days.

 

“This refinancing represents a critical step forward for IceWEB in strengthening our balance sheet and improving our monthly cash flow. Moreover, we anticipate that it will represent savings of approximately $700,000 in interest expense over the course of the next 12 months, while also providing essential capital to fund several large upcoming projects in our pipeline.”
