Hybrid Networks announces funding

SAN JOSE, Calif.-Hybrid Networks Inc., a leader in design, development, manufacturing and marketing of fixed broadband wireless systems has entered into an agreement with a fund of The Palladin Group L.P. that will provide the company with up to $15 million in cash to fund future operations.

Hybrid Networks has received an initial investment of $7.5 million and the agreement also includes a five-year warrant for the purchase of 833,333 shares of Hybrid common stock at $9 per share. Hybrid stands to receive up to an additional $7.5 million of equity financing later this year, if it compels the exercise of this warrant at an exercise price equal to the lower of $9 or 94 percent of the then current market price.
