Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On April 13, 2020, Quantum Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Payment Protection Term Note (the “Note”) effective April 11, 2020 with PNC Bank, National Association as the lender (“Lender”) in an aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (the “PPP Loan”). Subject to the terms of the Note, the PPP Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of one percent (1%) per annum, with the first six months of interest deferred, has an initial term of two years, and is unsecured and guaranteed by the Small Business Administration.
As of April 11, 2020, the Company entered into the Second Amendment (the “Revolver Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of December 27, 2018 (as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented, renewed, restated or replaced from time to time, the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), among the Company, Quantum LTO Holdings, LLC, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for such lenders. The amendment amends certain terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement in a manner that enables the Company to enter into the Note and avail itself of the PPP Loan.
In addition, on April 13, 2020, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 (the “Term Loan Amendment”) to the Term Loan Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of December 27, 2018 (as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented, renewed, restated or replaced from time to time, the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”), among the Company, Quantum LTO Holdings, LLC, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as disbursing and collateral agent for such lenders. The Term Loan Amendment amends the definition of Permitted Indebtedness in the Term Loan Credit Agreement in a manner that enables the Company to enter into the Note and avail itself of the PPP Loan.
The Company may apply to the Lender for forgiveness of the PPP Loan, with the amount which may be forgiven equal to the sum of the payroll costs, covered mortgage obligation, covered rent obligation; and covered utility payment incurred by the Company during the eight-week period beginning on the date of first disbursement to the Company under the PPP Loan, calculated in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part, but the Company intends to use the proceeds from the PPP Loan in accordance with the PPP Loan program. The Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the Note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the repayment of all amounts outstanding, collection of all amounts owing from the Company, and/or Lender’s exercise of any of the rights and remedies available under the Loan Documents or under applicable law.
The foregoing description of the Note, the Term Loan Amendment and the Revolver Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Note, the Term Loan Amendment and the Revolver Amendment, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
