The note is the first of three tranches aimed at raising $5million.
“As a result of the oversubscription, the directors have resolved to allot the notes as follows; the first $5,000 allotted in full plus 56,74 percent of the remaining balance applied for,” company secretary Marko Mahuni said in a statement.
The first tranche attracts an interest rate of 9 percent per annum. The second and third tranche will pay an interest rate of 9,5 percent and 10 percent per annum respectively.
The note went on to make its debut on the Fixed Income Board of the Financial Securities Exchange (Finsec) on Monday.
