Consent, Waiver, Reaffirmation and Amendment Number One
to Credit Agreement
As previously disclosed, on April 6, 2016, Overland Storage, Inc., a California
corporation (Overland) and wholly owned subsidiary of Sphere 3D Corp. (the
Company), Tandberg Data GmbH, a limited liability company organized under the
laws of Germany (Tandberg and, together with Overland, collectively the
Borrowers), and Opus Bank, a California commercial bank, as Lender (Lender),
entered into a Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) pursuant to which the
Lender provided the Borrowers a $10 Million revolving credit facility and
Overland $10 Million term loan facility. On December 30, 2016, the Borrowers and
Lender entered into a Consent, Waiver, Reaffirmation and Amendment Number One to
Credit Agreement (the First Amendment) pursuant to which (i) the maturity date
for the revolving and term loan credit facilities were amended to be the earlier
of the maturity date in the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Debenture, dated
December 1, 2014, issued to FBC Holdings S.a r.l. (the Debenture), or March
31, 2017, (ii) the Lender granted a waiver of specified defaults under the
Credit Agreement relating to a minimum asset coverage ratio, (iii) the Lender
provided its consent to the consummation of the acquisition of equity interests
of certain target companies, and (iv) certain other terms of the Credit
Agreement were amended, including but not limited to terms related to collateral
coverage, milestone deliverables, and financial covenants.
Further, as a condition of the entry into the First Amendment, the Company (i)
cancelled the warrant issued to Lender for the purchase of 1,541,768 common
shares at an exercise price of $1.30 per common share and (ii) issued to the
Lender a warrant (the Replacement Warrant) for the purchase of up to 862,068
common shares at an exercise price of $0.01 per common share. The Replacement
Warrant provides for piggyback registration rights.
The foregoing descriptions of the First Amendment and the Replacement Warrant do
not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to
each of the First Amendment and the Replacement Warrant, attached hereto as
Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
Portions of the First Amendment have been redacted based upon a request for
confidential treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to Rule 24b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Amendments Number Two and Three to Credit Agreement,
Amendment Number One to Amendment
Number 1, Waiver and
Reaffirmation
On March 12, 2017, the Borrowers and Lender entered into an Amendment Number Two
to Credit Agreement, Amendment Number One to Amendment Number 1, Waiver and
Reaffirmation (the Second Amendment). On March 22, 2017, the Borrowers and
Lender entered into an Amendment Number Three to Credit Agreement (the Third
Amendment) further amending the Second Amendment. Under the terms of the Second
Amendment, as modified by the Third Amendment, (i) the maturity date for the
revolving and term loan credit facilities were amended to be the earlier of (a)
the maturity date in the Debenture or (b) (x) June 30, 2017 if the Maturity
Extension Trigger Date (as defined below) occurs on or before March 31, 2017 or
(y) if the Maturity Extension Trigger Date has not occurred by such date, March
31, 2017, (ii) the Lender granted a waiver of specified defaults under the
Credit Agreement relating to obligations to deliver to the Lender an executed
letter of intent with respect to refinancing the credit facility, and (iii)
certain other terms of the Credit Agreement were amended, including but not
limited to terms related to collateral coverage, milestone deliverables, and
financial covenants. The Maturity Extension Trigger Date is the date upon which
both of the following conditions have been satisfied: (a) the Company shall have
received gross cash proceeds of at least $3,000,000 from the issuance of the
common shares and related warrants and (b) the Company shall have deposited at
least $2,500,000 of the funds raised in an equity offering into the primary
operating account that Overland maintains at Opus Bank. In the event of certain
specified events of default, including failure to meet certain monthly revenue
and EBITDA targets, to enter into a term sheet with a new lender by April 28,
2017, or to enter into a letter of intent with respect to a financing or retain
a financial advisor with respect to a sale of a significant portion of the
company's assets, all amounts under the Credit Agreement may be accelerated and
become immediately payable.
Further, as a condition of the entry into the Second Amendment, the Company
issued to the Lender (i) a warrant (the First Additional Warrant), exercisable
in the event that the Company has not repaid all outstanding amounts due under
the Credit Agreement on or prior to April 17, 2017, for the purchase of the
number of common shares determined by dividing (i) 75,000 by (ii) the difference
between the market price of our common shares on April 17, 2017 and $0.01, at an exercise price of $0.01 per
common share and (ii) a warrant (the Second Additional Warrant), exercisable
in the event that the Company has not repaid all outstanding amounts due under
the Credit Agreement on or prior to May 31, 2017, for the purchase of the number
of common shares determined by dividing (i) 100,000 by (ii) the difference
between the market price of our common shares on May 31, 2017 and $0.01, at an
exercise price of $0.01 per common share. In addition, the warrants provide for
piggyback registration rights.
The foregoing descriptions of the Second Amendment, the First Additional
Warrant, the Second Additional Warrant and the Third Amendment do not purport to
be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to each of the
Amendments and the Warrants, attached hereto as Exhibits 99.3, 99.4, 99.5 and
99.6, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference. Portions of the Second
Amendment and Third Amendment have been redacted based upon a request for
confidential treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to Rule 24b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
