Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 30, 2010, Medidata Solutions, Inc. (the Company) and Medidata FT, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (collectively, the Borrower), entered into the Second Loan Modification Agreement (the Second Modification) to the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of September 10, 2008 (as amended, the Loan Agreement) by and among the Borrower and Silicon Valley Bank (SVB).
Pursuant to the terms of the Second Modification, the Borrower and SVB agreed, among other things, to:
| reduce fees payable by the Borrower on its $10 million revolving line of credit under the Loan Agreement by (a) eliminating the 2.25% margin on prime rate borrowings and (b) decreasing the undrawn revolving credit line fee from 0.500% of the average undrawn balance to an annual rate of 0.375% of the average undrawn balance; |
| provide the Borrower with an option to borrow under the revolving line of credit under the Loan Agreement at an interest rate based on the U.S. London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR) rate plus a margin of 2.5%; |
| simplify the Borrowers financial reporting procedures by eliminating monthly financial reporting obligations and amending certain reporting procedures; and |
| replace the Borrowers prior financial covenants with a simplified adjusted quick ratio covenant of 2.00:1.00 and provide that in the event that the Borrower has less than $10.0 million of cash or cash equivalents in accounts with SVB in excess of the Borrowers borrowings under the Loan Agreement, the Borrower would also be required to satisfy a minimum trailing-two-quarter cash-flow covenant, commencing at $3 million for the period ended June 30, 2010 and increasing each quarter by $1 million up to $6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 and thereafter. |
