Item 1.01               Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On September 17, 2010 Overstock.com, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Master Lease Agreement and a Financial Covenants Rider and related documents (collectively, the “Master Lease Agreement”) with U.S. Bancorp Equipment Finance, Inc. — Technology Finance Group (“Lessor”), an affiliate of U.S. Bank National Association, pursuant to which the Company sold certain personal property (the “Assets”) to Lessor for approximately $14.6 million and simultaneously leased the Assets back for a period of 48 months.  The Company has the right to repurchase the Assets at the end of the 48-month term for $1.00.  In addition, the Company has the right to repurchase the Assets and terminate the Master Lease Agreement twelve (12) months following the initial term, or under certain situations where there is a change in control where Lessor sells substantially all of its assets, or another entity comes to acquire more than 25% of the ownership interests of Lessor or Lessor’s parent.

 

The Master Lease Agreement allows the Company to place up to approximately an additional $10 million of personal property (the “Additional Assets”) in service prior to July 31, 2011, with Lessor purchasing any such Additional Assets and the Company leasing the Additional Assets from Lessor for a period of approximately 48 months.  The Company has the right to repurchase the Additional Assets at the end of the 48-month term for $1.00.  In addition, the Company has the right to repurchase the Additional Assets and terminate the Master Lease Agreement twelve (12) months following the initial term, or in the event of a change of control as explained above.

 

The Master Lease Agreement is a net lease.  All costs, expenses and liabilities associated with the Assets and Additional Assets are the responsibility of the Company.  Payments on the Master Lease Agreement will be due monthly.  The effective interest rate payable under the Master Lease Agreement is 6.25% on the initial $14.6 million, and will be determined by current four (4) year swap rates for Additional Assets.

 

The Financial Covenants Rider requires the Company to maintain a minimum Total Fixed Charge Coverage annualized ratio of at least 1.20:1.00, based on operating results, measured at the end of each fiscal quarter.  “Total Fixed Charge Coverage” is defined as the Company’s EBITDAR (which is defined to mean earnings before interest expense, tax expense, depreciation expense, amortization expense and rent [defined as payments for real property leases and other operating leases]) minus the aggregate amount of federal, state, local and/or foreign income taxes accrued minus declared dividends minus 50% of depreciation expense divided by the Company’s (rental expense plus interest expense plus required principal payments including capitalized leases on a trailing basis).

 

The Financial Covenants Rider also requires the Company to maintain a minimum liquidity (defined as cash plus marketable securities) of $30,000,000 in the aggregate (which amount includes any minimum liquidity required under the Financing Agreement described below) at all times on deposit with U.S. Bank National Association until all amounts owed under the Master Lease Agreement are paid in full, but provides that the Company is permitted to withdraw the funds on deposit with U.S. Bank National Association at the Company’s discretion, although its failure to maintain a minimum liquidity of $30,000,000 would be an Event of Default under the Master Lease Agreement.

 

The Master Lease Agreement and the Financial Covenants Rider are filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and reference is hereby made to such documents for a more complete description of the terms thereof.

 

The Company is a party to a Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) dated as of December 22, 2009 with U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”), and (ii) a Security Agreement with U.S. Bank (the “Security Agreement”) and related agreements described in the Financing Agreement and/or Security Agreement. In addition, the Company utilizes other commercial banking services from U.S. Bank or its affiliates, including treasury management services, investment management services, and purchase card services.

 

Concurrent with the Master Lease Agreement, on September 17, 2010, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into a Consent and Waiver agreement, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this report.
