SARASOTA, Fla., Feb. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- xG Technology, Inc. ("xG" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: XGTI, XGTIW), a leading provider of wireless video solutions to broadcast, law enforcement and defense markets, and private mobile broadband networks for critical communications, today announced that it has paid down $3 million of the $9.5 million deferred payment it assumed in the acquisition of Vislink. The prepayment was made from internal funding sources, primarily existing cash and free cash flow, and reflects the desire of the Company to minimize the need for financing from external sources.

xG's acquisition of Vislink, which was completed on February 2, 2017, was paid for with $6.5 million in cash and a $9.5 million promissory note. At the request of the seller, xG has agreed to assume $3 million of additional accruals and trade liabilities to settle some of the debt earlier than originally scheduled.

The arrangement for the early prepayment was negotiated by Roger Branton, CFO and co-founder of xG Technology, and Rick Mooers, Director and co-founder of xG. Mr. Branton and his team will work directly with the individual holders of the liabilities xG will be assuming. The Company will seek to make additional early paydowns against the remaining $6.5 million debt from the acquisition using internal cash flow resources in the near future.
