SelectCore Announces Key Strategic Financing Vehicles. Pays Out Comvest Capital in Full


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - March 21, 2011) - SelectCore Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:SCG) ("SelectCore" or the "Company"), a leading payment and transaction processor for the prepaid industry, is pleased to announce that subsequent to paying down $1.25M of the company's senior debt in the last quarter of 2010, it has now paid out Comvest Capital II, L.P. in full and in advance of the March 31st and December 31st 2011 due dates.

The company has obtained a new senior, secured loan facility in the amount of $2.9M from Windsor Bancorp Limited Partnership and a $1.12M subordinate, secured loan from Digital Telecom Inc. (collectively, the "Loans").

The senior loan matures July 2011 and may be extended up to an additional 5 months. The subordinate loan matures March 2012. Both Loans bear an interest rate of 9.5% per annum.

In connection with this financing, SelectCore issued 2.9 million bonus common shares in its capital (the "Bonus Shares") from treasury, and an aggregate of 4.02 million warrants (each a "Warrant"). Each Warrants is exercisable into one common share for periods matching the maturity of the facilities (as extended) at the following strike prices: 1.34 million at $0.25 per share, 1.34 million at $0.30 per share and 1.34 million at $0.35 per share.

Further to the press released February 11, 2011, SelectCore announces that it has also entered into non-binding term sheets with certain prospective lenders to provide the company with long-term debt financing facilities if required. The Loans, however, provide SelectCore with a substantial amount of flexibility and time to weigh all strategic financing options.

SelectCore believes that the Loans will allow it to focus primarily on the success of the business as they do not contain certain onerous covenants which past financing arrangements contained and which limited the Company's freedom to fully execute on its strategic plans. The Loans also streamline SelectCore's reporting practices to its lenders.

SelectCore now plans to focus on maturing its prepaid financial services business including the nation-wide rollouts of Iridium MasterCard and ReCash – Canada's first ubiquitous cash reload network.

Keith McKenzie, CEO of SelectCore commented "These refinancing initiatives are a key milestone to increasing shareholder value. We are excited about our ability to move forward and execute on our growth strategy."
