Mirada plc  

("Mirada" or the "Company")

 Extension of loan facility

Mirada plc (AIM: MIRA), a leading provider of integrated software solutions for digital TV operators and broadcasters, is pleased to announce that it has increased its loan facility with Leasa Spain, S.L.U. (the "Lender") and extended the maturity date to 30 November 2022.

Mirada's subsidiary, Mirada Iberia, S.A.U. ("Mirada Iberia"), obtained a revolving credit facility for up to €1.3 million from the Lender (the "Facility") on 4 June 2019. On 21 May 2020, the Company announced that it had agreed an extension to the maturity date of the Facility to 30 November 2021 (the "Maturity Date").

The Lender has now agreed to increase the Facility to €3 million and extend the Maturity Date to 30 November 2022. In addition, the Facility has been novated from Mirada Iberia to Mirada plc. All other terms of the Facility remain unchanged and are set out in the announcement of 4 June 2019, including that the Facility is unsecured and bears an interest rate of 8 per cent. per annum on monies that are drawn down. Currently, €1,170,000 is drawn under the Facility.

José-Luis Vázquez, CEO of Mirada, commented:

"We have seen a strong resurgence in new business activity and a substantial increase in our pipeline of opportunities in recent months. This extension grants us significant financial flexibility and provides additional comfort that we can deliver against our ambitious near-term growth plans."

The amendment of the Facility is a related party transaction pursuant to rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies, due to the Lender being owned by Mr Ernesto Luis Tinajero Flores who has a beneficial interest in 87.21 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital through his indirect interest in Kaptungs Limited, which holds 7,768,791 ordinary shares of the Company.  The Directors of the Company consider, having consulted with the Company's Nominated Adviser, that the terms of the transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
