COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., March 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- root9B Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RTNB) ("RTNB") today announced the closing of the final tranche of its previously disclosed private placement financing consisting of secured convertible promissory notes and common stock purchase warrants for net proceeds of $2.25 million.  The financing, which completed its initial closing in September 2016, generated net proceeds of $8.8 million over a seven-month period. 

Participants included new and existing equity investors and noteholders.      

"The closing of this financing supports our ongoing initiatives to re-focus RTNB's business to that of a pure-play cybersecurity company based on the operations of our wholly-owned subsidiary, root9B, LLC," said Joseph J. Grano, Chairman and CEO of RTNB.  "This growth capital will allow us to continue to expand root9B's world-class team of cyber security experts, enhance its multi-platform products and services, and fund ongoing business development activities." 

"We are proud that almost 90% of this funding came from existing investors, including our two largest institutional holders," said Dan Wachtler, President and COO of RTNB. "We view their support as a validation of our strategy and recognition of our successes to date in executing against this plan."

The secured convertible promissory notes have a three-year term after issuance and each note accrues interest at a rate of 10% per annum.  The warrants to purchase approximately 439,000 shares of RTNB common stock have a term of five years with an exercise price of $10.00 per share. 

Additional information regarding this financing, the terms of the secured convertible promissory notes, and the common stock purchase warrants may be found in RTNB's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (www.sec.gov).
