As previously disclosed, on March 23, 2012, Overland Storage, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Needham & Company, LLC (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell 3,200,000 shares (the “Underwritten Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, no par value per share (the “Common Stock”), for $2.00 per share, less a 6.5% underwriting commission. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriter an option to purchase up to an additional 480,000 shares (the “Additional Shares”, and together with the Underwritten Shares, the “Shares”) of Common Stock at the public offering price, less a 6.5% underwriting commission, within 30 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement to cover over-allotments, if any. The offering was made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3, as amended (Registration Statement No. 333-179170), and the prospectus supplement dated March 23, 2012. On March 26, 2012, the Underwriter elected to partially exercise its over-allotment option to purchase 440,000 of the Additional Shares. The closing of the sale of an aggregate of 3,640,000 Shares occurred on March 28, 2012.
