Unilens Vision Inc. Refinances Bank Debt on More Attractive Terms With Hancock Bank

LARGO, FL--(Marketwire - May 24, 2012) - Unilens Vision Inc. (OTCBB: UVIC) (OTCQB: UVIC) (TSX VENTURE: UVI), which develops, licenses, manufactures, distributes and markets specialty contact lenses, today announced the refinancing of the Company’s bank loan facilities.

The new loan facilities, which have been extended to the Company by Hancock Bank, include a $3.5 million five-year term loan agreement and a $1.5 million revolving credit facility that have replaced existing outstanding term loan borrowings and the unused revolving credit facility with Regions Bank.

“We are very pleased to announce our new banking relationship with Hancock Bank,” stated Michael Pecora, Chief Executive Officer of Unilens Vision Inc. “The terms of the refinancing lower the interest rate on our borrowings to LIBOR plus 3%, eliminate the principal balloon payment due in January 2015, and incorporate less restrictive covenants. This should provide us with greater flexibility to consider future dividend increases when justified by the Company’s financial performance, consistent with our philosophy that Unilens shareholders should participate directly in the Company’s success.”
