香港2019年11月12日 /美通社/ -- 中國獨立在線營銷與企業數字化運營解決方案提供商愛點擊互動亞洲集團有限公司（納斯達克代碼: ICLK，以下簡稱“愛點擊”或“公司”）今天宣布完成向Marine Central Limited公司出售總規模為2,000萬美元于2022年11月11日到期的三年期可轉換債券（以下簡稱“可轉債”）。Marine Central Limited此次購買可轉債，受到福布斯媒體集團（Forbes Media LLC，旗下擁有《福布斯》雜志等全球頂級商業媒體）的大股東任德章先生（以下簡稱“任先生”）的支持。此次融資所得將主要用于繼續投資公司的企業數字化運營解決方案業務及其他新業務發展。
“我們非常高興任先生成為我們的主要投資人之一，任先生是福布斯媒體集團大股東，也是香港領先專注于投資東南亞市場的本匯資產管理（亞洲）有限公司（Integrated Asset Management）的所有人，”愛點擊共同創始人兼首席執行官薛永康表示，“可轉債轉換價格的溢價體現了這些新投資者對愛點擊的信心。企業數字化運營解決方案在今年正式推出后已為我們的業務做出了重要貢獻，并將成為公司未來主要成長動能之一。”
薛先生表示 ：“我們相信，通過此次發行可轉債建立的合作關系，最終將在純粹的財務投資之外為我們帶來大量的協同效應。”

此次發行的可轉債以每年5.0%的利率計息，可轉債持有人可選擇將其轉換為公司的美國存托股份（“ADSs”），每一股美國存托股份代表半股公司普通股。持有人可在12個月鎖定期后選擇轉股，如未發生需要調整價格的情形，轉換價格為以下兩者中的較低價格：每股4.30美元的固定價格，或為一定期間美國存托股份成交量加權平均價（VWAP）基礎上溢價10%。公司也可選擇在支付適當回購價后回購該可轉債。
前述可轉債、債券轉換后所得的美國存托股份及其所代表的普通股，尚未根據美國證券法案或任何州的證券法進行登記，且可轉讓性和轉售受限。未經登記或證券法案和其他適用證券法允許的適用登記豁免，不得轉讓或轉售。
