Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 30, 2014, ORBCOMM Inc. (“ORBCOMM” or the “Company”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Macquarie CAF LLC (“Macquarie”).

The Credit Agreement provides for up to $160,000,000 in loans as follows (the “Facilities”):

 

    Initial Term Loan Facility: Term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $70,000,000, the proceeds of which will be used to repay in full the Company’s 9.50% Senior Secured Notes Due 2018 and for general corporate purposes.

 

    Revolving Facility: Revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $10,000,000 for general corporate purposes.

 

    Initial Acquisition Facility: Term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $10,000,000, the proceeds of which, if drawn, may be used to finance a potential acquisition.

 

    Additional Acquisition Facility: Term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $70,000,000, the proceeds of which, if drawn, may be used to finance an additional potential acquisition.

Each of the Facilities matures 5 years from the funding date of the Initial Term Loan Facility (the “Maturity Date”).

At the Company’s election, the Facilities will bear interest at a base rate or LIBOR, plus an applicable margin as described below:

The applicable interest margins are 375 basis points in the case of base rate loans and 475 basis points in the case of LIBOR loans; provided that LIBOR shall be deemed to be not less than 1.0% per annum.

The Facilities will be secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets under a Security Agreement among the Company, its subsidiaries and Macquarie (the “Security Agreement”). Interest accrued under the Credit Agreement will be payable by the Company based on the type of loan and interest period selected by the Company. The Facilities have no scheduled principal amortization until the Maturity Date. Subject to the terms set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Company may prepay the Facilities at any time prior to the Maturity Date.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, conditions to funding, covenants and events of default. The covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement include, among other things, prohibitions on the Company and its subsidiaries against incurring certain indebtedness and investments (other than permitted acquisitions and other exceptions as specified therein), providing certain guarantees and incurring certain liens. In addition, the Credit Agreement provides for certain events of default, the occurrence of which could result in the acceleration of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.

The foregoing summary description of the Credit Agreement and related documents does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement and Security Agreement, which will be filed as exhibits to the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2014.
