VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 8, 2022 / RE Royalties Ltd. (TSXV:RE)(OTCQX:RROYF) ("RE Royalties" or the "Company"), a global leader in renewable energy royalty-based financing, has entered into a loan agreement with Switch Power Ontario Solar Operating Corporation ("ProjectCo"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alberta-based independent power producer Switch Power Corporation ("Switch"), for $1.3 Million (the "Loan"). The Loan will finance the acquisition of an operational 428 kWDC rooftop solar generation project located in Vaughan, Ontario (the "Project").

The Loan will have an initial term of 6 months at a 10% interest rate per annum, compounded monthly, with the option for ProjectCo to extend the Loan by an additional 6 months. The Company will have first-ranking security interest over the Project including a lien over Project assets, and a pledge of shares in ProjectCo.
