Item
1.01. Entry into a Definitive
Material Agreement.
Satcon
Technology Corporation (Satcon or the Company) and its subsidiaries have
entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the Loan Agreement) with Silicon
Valley Bank (the Bank) dated as of February 26, 2008 that provides for a
senior secured revolving credit facility of up to $10,000,000 (the Credit
Facility). The Credit Facility, if not
sooner terminated in accordance with its terms, expires on February 25,
2010.
The
Credit Facility contains both conditions precedent that must be satisfied prior
to any borrowing and affirmative and negative covenants to which SatCon and its
subsidiaries must adhere. The Credit Facility imposes restrictions with regards
to additional indebtedness, liens, various fundamental changes (including
mergers and acquisitions), payments, investments, transactions with affiliates,
and other limitations customary in senior secured credit facilities.
Borrowings
under the Credit Facility are permitted to be used for working capital and
general business requirements. Interest
on outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility will accrue at a rate
equal to the Prime Rate plus one percent (1.0%) per annum or the LIBOR Rate
plus three and three quarters percent (3.75%) per annum.
The
obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the Loan Agreement are
secured under various collateral documents by first priority liens on
substantially all of the Companys and its subsidiaries assets.
The
Loan Agreement provides that events of default will exist in certain
circumstances, including failure to make payment of principal or interest on
the loans when required, failure to perform obligations under the Loan
Agreement and related documents, defaults in certain other indebtedness and
certain other events. Upon an event of
default, the Bank may accelerate maturity of the loans and enforce remedies
under the Loan Agreement and related documents.
Item 2.03
Creation of a Direct
Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of
a Registrant
The
information contained in Item 1.01 above with respect to entry into the Loan
Agreement and related documents is incorporated herein by reference.
