ID Watchdog Announces Credit Facility Borrowing and Officer Resignation
DENVER, Aug. 1, 2013 /CNW/ - ID Watchdog, Inc. (TSX VENTURE: IDW) (PINKSHEETS: IDWAF) ("ID Watchdog" or the "Company"), provider of consumer-facing identity theft protection and resolution services, today announced that on July 31, 2013, its wholly owned subsidiary Identity Rehab Corporation ("ID Rehab"), borrowed an additional $250,000 on its $500,000 secured credit facility (the "Credit Facility") with Costella Kirsch, a California based lender (the "Lender").
ID Rehab borrowed $250,000 on the Credit Facility at closing in February 2013 and achieved certain financial targets, as defined in the credit agreement, which allowed it to borrow the remaining $250,000 available under the Credit Facility (the "Second Draw"). By making the Second Draw, ID Rehab is required to issue 1,000,000 of its ordinary shares to the Lender as compensation. The Credit Facility matures on June 30, 2016, is secured by all of the assets of ID Rehab and the borrowings on the Credit Facility will be used for general corporate purposes.
Michael Greene, CEO, commented, "In addition to the $250,000 we borrowed on our Credit Facility, we were successful in generating over $60,000 of free cash flow during the second quarter of 2013, and these funds will position us to continue to invest in our employee benefit and our tech support channels."
The Company also announced the resignation of Mr. Rick Lunstrum, Vice President of Operations, effective July 31, 2013. Mr. Craig Ramsay, Chief Information Officer, will assume Mr. Lunstrum's duties. In making the announcement Mike Greene, CEO, said, "I personally want to thank Rick for his significant contribution to the Company over the last eight years.
