Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 13, 2013, OCZ Technology Group, Inc. (the Company) entered into the First Amendment (the Amendment) to its Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of March 11, 2013 (the Loan Agreement), with Hercules Technology Growth Capital, Inc. (Hercules) as the Company did not meet certain financial tests and to raise $10 million in new equity or subordinated debt by May 31, 2013. The Amendment redefined certain calculations with respect to the financial tests and extended the requirement to consummate such financing to June 21, 2013. The Company agreed to certain other terms and conditions, including an amendment to the March Warrant and issuance of the June Warrant, each as defined and described below, and the payment of an amendment fee of $200,000. The Company is currently in compliance with the amended covenants.
The Company amended the terms of the warrant issued to Hercules on March 11, 2013 (the March Warrant) and previously disclosed in the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 11, 2013. Among other things, the amended March Warrant sets the exercise price at $1.46 per share, resulting in 1,027,397 shares of common stock issuable upon full exercise of the March Warrant, and extended to July 31, 2013 (a) the Companys obligation to reduce the exercise price upon certain equity financings and (b) the holders option to have the March Warrant convert into shares of preferred stock or securities exercisable or convertible into shares of preferred stock upon certain equity financings.
In addition, the Company issued Hercules a new warrant (the June Warrant) to purchase a number of shares of the Companys common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing $365,000 (the Aggregate Amount) by the exercise price of the June Warrant, which is initially set at $1.46 per share, resulting in 250,000 shares of common stock issuable upon full exercise of the June Warrant; provided, that if the Company does not consummate a financing of new equity, together with any subordinated debt, of at least $10 million on or before June 18, 2013, the Aggregate Amount shall be increased by $73,000 each calendar day until the closing of such financing. If the Company consummates a financing of at least $10 million in new equity or subordinated debt prior to July 31, 2013 in which the Company issues shares of common stock or securities that are exercisable or convertible into shares of common stock and the effective price per share of common stock in that financing is less than the exercise price of the June Warrant, then the exercise price of the June Warrant shall automatically be reduced to equal the price per share of common stock in such financing and, as a result, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the June Warrant shall increase such that the product of the newly adjusted number of shares of common stock and the reduced exercise price per share will equal the Aggregate Amount. Alternatively, if the Company consummates a financing of at least $10 million in new equity or subordinated debt prior to July 31, 2013 in which the Company issues shares of preferred stock or securities that are exercisable or convertible into shares of preferred stock of the Company, then the holder of the June Warrant may elect to have the June Warrant convert into shares of such preferred stock or such other securities equal to the Aggregate Amount at a price per share/security paid by the investors in such financing. The June Warrant has a term of five years from the date of issuance.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information set forth in the second and third paragraphs above relating to the Companys amendment of the March Warrant and issuance of the June Warrant to Hercules is incorporated by reference herein. The March Warrant and June Warrant were each issued in a private placement exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof.
