The Japanese Investment Company Metaplenet issued $ 21 million in zero interest bonds to Evo Fund, an investment firm based in the Cayman Islands, only one day after announcing a separate increase strategy of $ 50 million.
The 17th series of bonds, issued on May 29, comes with a nominal value of $ 525000 each and will mature on November 28, 2025. Unlike traditional debt instruments, the Thesis Fund does not produce interest, which allows Metaplanet to ask without additional reimbursement costs.
According to the terms, Evo Fund has the right to early redemption by notifying at least five business days. Bonds can be exchanged in full or partly, in multiples or $ 525,000.
Metaplenet can also trigger reimbursements linked to future funds collection of funds involving the same investor, depending on cumulative payments.
There is no guarantee or guarantee attached to the bonds, and no bond administrator has been designated, as allowed by the Japanese corporate law. The company has designated its Tokyo office as the location for paying management.
