B. Adamu Ltd issued a GH40 million 15% convertible loan note at par on 1 January 2020 with interest payable annually in arrears. Three years later, on 31 December 2022, the loan note is convertible into equity shares on the basis of GH!in100 of loan note for 50 equity shares or it may be redeemed at par in cash at the option of the loan note holder.
