New Issue: Bidville's $2.5 million private placement priced at 50% premium

By Sheri Kasprzak

Atlanta, May 17 - Bidville Inc. said Tuesday that the $2.5 million private placement it closed Monday had been priced at a premium of more than 50%.

On Monday, Delmount International Ltd. bought 2,500 shares of series A convertible preferred stock at $1,000 each.

Each preferred is convertible into 1,667 common shares at $0.60 each.

The conversion price represented a 54% premium to the company's closing stock price of $0.39 on May 16.

The investor also received warrants for 2.5 million shares, exercisable at $0.60 each through May 31, 2010.

Delmount has the option to buy $1 million in additional preferreds.

The purchase will be made in 10 closings of 250 preferreds for $250,000 in each closing. If Delmount exercises its option to buy additional preferreds, Bidville will issue an additional warrant for 1 million shares, exercisable under the same terms.

Bidville, based in Clearwater, Fla., is an online auction site operator. The proceeds will be used to develop existing projects and to establish new business opportunities.
