Under terms of the agreement, Ascent issued $12.5 million in convertible advance notes and another $2.5 million in convertible advance notes in a concurrent private placement transaction.
Net proceeds are expected to pay fees and expenses related to the financing and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

He said the company is seeking to expand R&D and production to serve an ever-broader base of industries and use-cases in addition to funding its working capital needs.
