Intersections Inc. Completes $20 Million Debt Financing

Debt Financing Follows $7.5 million Gross Equity Proceeds in Fourth
Quarter 2015

CHANTILLY, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Intersections Inc. (NASDAQ: INTX) today announced that it successfully
completed a $20 million term loan financing with Crystal Financial LLC
(“Crystal”). Additionally, the Company noted that during the fourth
quarter of 2015, it closed a private placement of 3.0 million shares of
its common stock, raising gross proceeds of $7.5 million. The Company
will use up to a maximum of $15 million of the proceeds from the term
loan in connection with the market launch of the Company’s pet health
monitoring solution, the Voyce Pro Wellness Monitoring Program™, with
the remaining portion to be used for general corporate purposes of the
Company’s Identity Guard® and other businesses. For the
duration of the three-year term of the Crystal debt financing, any
additional capital needs of Voyce® can only be funded from
cash generated from Voyce’s operations or a third-party equity
investment directly into Voyce, which is subject to limitations in the
credit agreement with Crystal. In connection with the term loan, the
Company terminated its existing loan agreement with Silicon Valley Bank.
Loeb Partners served as the exclusive placement agent in the debt
transaction.

“We are pleased to announce these two financing transactions to further
fund the sales, marketing and operations of our Voyce Pro Wellness
Monitoring Program. Voyce Pro™ enables veterinarians to better monitor
an animal’s health by providing biometric data and insight that we
believe has never been available before,” said Michael Stanfield,
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Intersections Inc. “These funds
will also give us the financial security to continue executing our
corporate transformation program and invest in our growth platforms with
a structure that creates more financial independence between our two
primary businesses.”

“Intersections has robust capabilities in the collection, management and
monitoring of data. Not only are they leaders in providing consumer
identity protection services, but they also are using their expertise to
deliver an innovative product for consumers to manage their pets’
health. We are delighted to be involved with Michael and the entire
management team and look forward to a mutually beneficial partnership,”
said Cheryl Carner, Managing Director of Crystal Financial.
