The Loan has an initial term of six months and may be repaid for £275,000 within the first three months, increasing to £290,000 if repaid at the end of the six-month term. Strip Tinning Limited has the option to extend the facility for up to a further three months, during which an additional finance return of 1.5% per month is payable.

The Board has considered a range of funding options and concluded that the Loan provides the Company with the best flexible funding solution for the short term.
