Item 2.04.   Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.
     On August 3, 2011, Comarco, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) indicating that an event of default had occurred under the Loan and Security Agreement entered into by and between the Company and SVB on February 11, 2009 (as amended, the “Loan Agreement”). The event of default relates to the Company’s failure to meet the minimum quick ratio financial covenant of “1.25 to 1.00” for each of the periods ending February 28, 2011, March 31, 2011, April 30, 2011, May 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011.
     Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Company may borrow from SVB up to (x) the lesser of (i) $10,000,000 or (ii) 80 percent of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable minus (y) the amount of any outstanding principal balance of any advances made by SVB under the Loan Agreement.
     Currently, the Company has no borrowings outstanding under the Loan Agreement and SVB has issued a single letter of credit on behalf of the Company in the amount of $77,000 (the “Letter of Credit”). While the letter does not terminate the Company’s existing credit facility with SVB, it provides that the Company must (i) immediately repay all obligations under the Loan Agreement, including the Letter of Credit (ii) deposit cash with SVB in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of any letters of credit remaining undrawn, and (iii) pay in advance all letter of credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of any letters of credit.
