PHI Group Receives the First Drawdown from the $50-million Milost Equity Subscription Agreement
NEW YORK, Sept. 28, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PHI Group (www.phiglobal.com) (OTC Markets
HIL), a U.S. diversified holding company engaged in mergers and acquisitions, announced today that the Company has received a large portion of the first drawdown of $2.75 million from the $50-million financing facility previously committed by Milost Global, Inc., a U.S. private equity firm, and expects to receive additional funds from Milost Global, Inc. for acquisition and working capital purposes.

Their commitment and ability to deliver on it in a timely manner enable us to implement a value-creating buyout and investment program designed to benefit our shareholders and all stakeholders.”
Ronald Spratt, CEO of Milost Global, Inc., added: “We are very pleased to work with PHI Group and look forward to building a mutually-rewarding, fruitful long-term business relationship.
