Mon, Dec 11, 2023

CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / December 11, 2023 / Starrex International, Ltd. (“Starrex” or the “Company”) (CSE:STX)(OTCQB:STXMF) announces that, further to its press release dated October 18, 2023, despite ongoing discussions with the lender, the Lender (as defined below) filed a statement of claim seeking a summary judgement to enforce its debt in the State of New York. The Lender is demanding repayment of approximately US$4,850,000 owing pursuant to a US$5,000,000 line of credit. The details of the line of credit were described in the Company’s press release dated October 11, 2022. The matter is set to be heard in New York on December 16, 2023.

By way of background, Starrex Insurance Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned Texas subsidiary of the Company (the “Borrower”), entered into a loan arrangement with a Missouri-based institutional lender (the “Lender”) pursuant to which such Lender agreed to provide a loan facility to the Borrower whereby the Borrower may borrow up to US$5M bearing interest at prime less 0.5% per annum, with the proceeds to be used for working capital, acquisitions and general corporate purposes (the “Facility”). The original Lender was purchased by another US based company and the Facility was assigned by the Borrower to the new party.

All obligations of the Borrower under the Facility were guaranteed by the Company. The term of the loan facility was for one (1) year and was designed to automatically renew for additional one (1) year terms to a maximum of five (5) years (the “Term”). The automatic renewal was subject to either the Borrower or the Lender providing written notice to the other party that it was electing not to continue the Facility for another year. The Lender advised the Company that the Facility would not be extended past the October 17, 2023, date.

Starrex entered into the Facility in connection with the proposed acquisition of a title agency business (the “Target”). The proceeds of the loan were used by Starrex to fund the operations and development of the proposed acquisition. While Starrex holds security over the assets of the Target, the assets of the Target may not be adequate to discharge the liability owing to the Lender.

Despite the filing of the court action, Starrex is in ongoing discussions with the Lender to try and negotiate repayment terms or a settlement. However, should negotiations not be successful and the Lender is successful in its summary judgement application, this event would have a material adverse effect on Starrex Insurance Holdings, Inc and its ability to carry on business. In response to the Lender’s actions, Starrex may have to file for bankruptcy or take other steps to liquidate its business.
