Pervasip Initiates Buyout of Convertible Debt Instrument and Converts Other Debt at Above Market Rates
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., June 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Pervasip Corp. (OTCQB: PVSP), a provider of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) telephone services, today announced that it has sent notice to an investor to buy out a convertible debt instrument, which allows the investor to convert approximately $100,000 of debt into common stock at a 45% discount to market. Pervasip has also converted $224,000 of debt on its balance sheet into common stock, at a price of $0.08 per share.
"We continue to make progress reducing our debt and negotiating the conversion of some of our debt at a price that exceeds the market value of our stock," said Paul Riss, Pervasip's Chief Executive Officer. "In conjunction with our debt reduction, we work diligently to limit the number of shares of common stock we have to issue, and we try to only issue convertible debt instruments that we can buy back at a later date."
"We have the cash to buy out some of our more expensive convertible debt," continued Riss, "and we believe we can obtain cash in the future at a lower cost. Consequently, we believe it is advantageous for us to pay off a convertible note to prevent it from converting into common stock."
The company's transfer agent reports that total shares outstanding as of June 16, 2011 are 46,601,463, 3,690,154 of which are in certificate form and 42,911,309 are held in brokerage accounts. A total of 43,175,587 are considered free trading shares.
